SUMMARY
The summary does not contain all information that may be important. Read the
entire prospectus and Statement of Additional Information before deciding to
invest.
The Contracts provide for tax-deferred investments and annuity benefits. Both
Qualified Contracts and Non-Qualified Contracts are described in this
Prospectus.
The minimum initial Purchase Payment for a Non-Qualified Contract is $2,500 and
the minimum subsequent payment is $500. The minimum Purchase Payment for a
Qualified Contract is $50. However, if annualized contribution amounts from a
payroll or salary deduction are equal to or greater than $600, a periodic
payment for a Qualified Contract under $50 will be accepted. For a Non-Qualified
Contract a minimum of $100 in Contract Value must be allocated to an investment
option before another investment option can be selected. For a Qualified
Contract, as long as contribution amounts to a new investment option from a
payroll or salary reduction plan are equal to or greater than $50 per month,
another such investment option may be selected. The maximum Purchase Payment for
a Qualified Contract is the maximum permitted under the qualified plan's terms.
The Owner may make Purchase Payments to Non-Qualified Contracts and Contracts
issued as Individual Retirement Annuities ("IRAs") by authorizing Us to draw on
an account of the Owner via check or electronic debit ("Pre-Authorized Checking
[PAC] Agreement"). (See "The Contracts," page 20.)
We provide for variable accumulations and benefits by crediting Purchase
Payments to one or more Subaccounts of the Separate Account selected by the
Owner. Each Subaccount invests in a corresponding Portfolio of one of the Funds.
(See "The Funds" page 15.) The Contract Values allocated to the Separate Account
will vary with the investment performance of the Portfolios and Funds selected
by the Owner.
We also provide for fixed accumulations and benefits in the Fixed Account Option
of the General Account. Any portion of the purchase payment allocated to the
Fixed Accumulation Option is credited with interest daily at a rate periodically
declared by Us at Our discretion, but not less than 3%. (See "Fixed Account
Option," page 19.)
The investment risk under the Contracts is borne by the Owner, except to the
extent that Contract Values are allocated to the Fixed Account Option and are
guaranteed to earn at least 3% interest.
Transfers between Subaccounts are permitted before and after annuitization, if
allowed by the qualified plan and subject to limitations. Restrictions apply to
transfers out of the Fixed Account Option. (See "Transfer During Accumulation
Period" and "Transfer During Annuity Period," pages 22 and 29, respectively.)
2
<PAGE> 6
No sales charge is deducted from any Purchase Payment. An Owner may withdraw up
to 10% of the Contract Value less Debt in any Contract Year without assessment
of any charge. If the Owner withdraws an amount in excess of 10% of the Contract
Value less Debt in any Contract Year, the amount withdrawn in excess of 10% is
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("Withdrawal Charge"). The
Withdrawal Charge starts at 6% in the first Contribution Year and reduces by 1%
each Contribution Year so that there is no charge in the seventh and later
Contribution Years. (See "Withdrawal Charge," page 25.) The Withdrawal Charge
also applies at the annuitization of Accumulation Units in their sixth
Contribution Year or earlier, except as set forth under "Withdrawal Charge."
However, the aggregate Withdrawal Charges assessed against a Contract will never
exceed 7.25% of the aggregate Purchase Payments made under the Contract.
Withdrawals will have tax consequences, which may include the amount of the
withdrawal being subject to income tax and in some circumstances an additional
10% penalty tax. Withdrawals are permitted from Contracts issued in connection
with Section 403(b) Qualified Plans only under limited circumstances. (See
"Federal Tax Matters", page 30.)
We charge for mortality and expense risk and administrative expenses, for
records maintenance, and for any applicable premium taxes. (See "Asset-Based
Charges Against the Separate Account," page 25.) The Funds will incur certain
management fees and other expenses. (See "Summary of Expenses", "Investment
Management Fees and Other Expenses" and the Funds' Prospectuses for such
information.)
The Contracts may be purchased in connection with retirement plans qualifying
either under Section 401 or 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") or
as individual retirement annuities including Roth IRAs. The Contracts are also
available in connection with state and municipal deferred compensation plans and
non-qualified deferred compensation plans. (See "Taxation of Annuities in
General," page 30 and "Qualified Plans," page 33.)
The Owner has the right within the "free look" period (generally ten days,
subject to state variation) after receiving the Contract to cancel the Contract
by delivering or mailing it to Us. Upon receipt by Us, the Contract will be
cancelled and amounts refunded. The amount of the refund depends on the state
where issued; however, generally the refund is at least the Contract Value. (See
"The Contracts," page 20.) In addition, a special "free look" period applies in
some circumstances to Contracts issued as individual retirement annuities or as
Roth IRAs.

(1) An Owner may withdraw up to 10% of the Contract Value less Debt in any
Contract Year without assessment of any charge. Under certain circumstances the
contingent deferred sales charge may be reduced or waived, including when
certain annuity options are selected.
(2) The Records Maintenance Charge will be waived for Contracts in the
situations detailed in the Prospectus.
(3) The expense figures shown are net of certain fee waivers or reductions from
Janus Capital Corporation. Without such waivers, the Management Fee, Other
Expenses and Total Portfolio Annual Expenses for the Portfolios for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1998 would have been .72%, .03% and .75%, respectively,
for the Janus Aspen Growth and Janus Aspen Aggressive Growth Portfolios; .67%,
.07% and .74% for the Janus Aspen Worldwide Growth Portfolio; and .72%, .02% and
.74% for the Janus Aspen Balanced Portfolio. See the prospectus and Statement of
Additional Information of Janus Aspen Series for a description of these waivers.
(4) A portion of the brokerage commissions that certain funds pay was used to
reduce fund expenses. In addition, certain funds, or FMR on behalf of certain
funds, have entered into arrangements with their custodian whereby credits
realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce custodian
expenses. Without these reductions, the Other Expenses and the Total Portfolio
Annual Expenses for the Portfolios for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998
would have been .09% and .58%, respectively, for the Fidelity VIP Equity-Income
Portfolio, .09% and .68%, respectively, for the Fidelity VIP Growth Portfolio,
10% and .64%, respectively, for the Fidelity VIP II Asset Manager Portfolio and
.11% and .70%, respectively, for the Fidelity VIP II Contrafund Portfolio.
(5) FMR agreed to reimburse a portion of the Fidelity VIP II Index 500
Portfolio's expenses during this period. Without this reimbursement, the
Management Fee, Other Expenses and Total Portfolio Annual Expenses for the
Portfolio for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 would have been 24%, 11%
and .35%, respectively, on an annualized basis.

<PAGE> 8
(6) Reflects an agreement by Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York to
reimburse the Portfolio to the extent expenses exceed 1.15%. Absent fee waiver
and expense reimbursement, total operating expenses would have been 3.43%
(7) In November 1998, the Portfolio's shareholders approved a new management
agreement with lower fees. Under the new agreement, the adviser will receive a
unified management fee of 1.00% of the first $500 million of the average net
assets of the Portfolio, 0.95% of the next $500 million and 0.90% thereafter.
(8) Pursuant to their respective agreements with Kemper Variable Series, the
investment manager and the accounting agent have agreed, for the one year period
commencing on the date of this Prospectus, to limit their respective fees and to
reimburse other operating expenses, in a manner communicated to the Board of the
Fund, to the extent necessary to limit total operating expenses of the following
described Portfolios to the amounts set forth after the Portfolio names: Kemper
Value + Growth Portfolio (.84%), Kemper Contrarian Value Portfolio (.80%),
Kemper Small Cap Value Portfolio (.84%), Kemper Horizon 5 Portfolio (.97%),
Kemper Horizon 10+ Portfolio (.83%), Kemper Horizon 20+ Portfolio (.93%), and
Kemper Investment Grade Bond Portfolio (.80%). The amounts set forth in the
table above reflect actual expenses for the past fiscal year, which were lower
than these expense limits.

table reflects expenses of both the Separate Account and the Fund. THE EXAMPLE
SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED TO BE A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSES AND
DOES NOT INCLUDE THE DEDUCTION OF STATE PREMIUM TAXES, WHICH MAY BE ASSESSED
BEFORE OR UPON ANNUITIZATION. ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE
SHOWN. "Management Fees" and "Other Expenses" in the "SUMMARY OF EXPENSES" for
the Janus Aspen Portfolios, Lexington Portfolios and Fidelity Portfolios have
been provided by Janus Capital Corporation, Lexington Management Corporation and
Fidelity Management & Research Corporation, respectively, and have not been
independently verified. 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 any Subaccount. The Records Maintenance Charge is a single
charge, it is not a separate charge for each Subaccount. In addition, the effect
of the Records Maintenance Charge has been reflected in the Example by applying
the percentage derived by dividing the total amounts of annual Records
Maintenance Charge collected by the total net assets of all the Subaccounts in
the Separate Account. See "Contract Charges and Expenses" for more information
regarding the various costs and expenses.

KILICO, THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT AND THE FUNDS
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
We were organized under the laws of the State of Illinois in 1947 as a stock
life insurance company. Our offices are located at 1 Kemper Drive, Long Grove,
Illinois 60049. We offer annuity and life insurance products and are admitted to
do business in the District of Columbia and all states except New York. We are a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Kemper Corporation, a nonoperating holding company.
Kemper Corporation is a majority owned (76.4 percent) subsidiary of Zurich
Holding Company of America ("ZHCA"), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Zurich Insurance Company ("Zurich"). Zurich is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Zurich Financial Services ("ZFS"). ZFS was formed in the September, 1998 merger
of the Zurich Group with the financial services business of B.A.T. Industries.
ZFS is owned by Zurich Allied A.G. and Allied Zurich p.l.c., fifty-seven percent
and forty-three percent, respectively.
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
We established the KILICO Variable Annuity Separate Account on May 29, 1981
under Illinois law as the KILICO Money Market Separate Account. KILICO Money
Market Separate Account was initially registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") as an open-end, diversified management investment
company. On November 2, 1989, contract owners approved a Reorganization under
which the Separate Account was restructured as a unit investment trust. The SEC
does not supervise the management, investment practices or policies of the
Separate Account or KILICO.
Benefits provided under the Contracts are Our obligations. Although the assets
in the Separate Account are Our property, they are held separately from Our
other assets and are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other
business We may conduct. Income, capital gains and capital losses, whether or
not realized, from the assets allocated to the Separate Account are credited to
or charged against the Separate Account without regard to the income, capital
gains and capital losses arising out of any other business We may conduct.
Thirty-four Subaccounts of the Separate Account are currently available. Each
Subaccount invests exclusively in shares of one of the corresponding Portfolios.
We may add or delete Subaccounts in the future. Not all Subaccounts may be
available in all jurisdictions, under all Contracts or in all retirement plans.
The Separate Account purchases and redeems shares from the Funds at net asset
value. We redeem shares of the Funds as necessary to provide benefits, to deduct
Contract charges and to transfer assets from one Subaccount to another as
requested by Owners. All dividends and capital gains distributions received by
the Separate Account from a Portfolio are reinvested in that Portfolio at net
asset value and retained as assets of the corresponding Subaccount.
The Separate Account's financial statements appear in the Statement of
Additional Information.
THE FUNDS
The Separate Account invests in shares of the following open-end management
investment companies:
- Kemper Variable Series (formerly Investors Fund Series)
- Janus Aspen Series
- Lexington Natural Resources Trust
- Lexington Emerging Markets Fund
- Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund
- Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund II
- Scudder Variable Life Investment Fund
- The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc.
- J.P. Morgan Series Trust II
- The Alger American Fund
- American Century Variable Portfolios, Inc.
15
<PAGE> 19
SEC registration does not involve SEC supervision of their management,
investment practices or policies. The Funds provide investment vehicles for
variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts and, in the case of the
Janus Aspen Series, certain qualified retirement plans. Shares of the Funds are
sold only to insurance company separate accounts and qualified retirement plans.
In addition to selling shares to Our separate accounts, shares of the Funds may
be sold to separate accounts of other insurance companies. It is conceivable
that in the future it may be disadvantageous for variable life insurance
separate accounts and variable annuity separate accounts of other companies, or
for variable life insurance separate accounts, variable annuity separate
accounts and qualified retirement plans to invest simultaneously in the Funds.
Currently, neither We nor the Funds foresee any such disadvantages to variable
life insurance owners, variable annuity owners or qualified retirement plans.
The Funds must monitor events to identify material conflicts between such owners
and determine what action, if any, should be taken. In addition, if We believe a
Fund's response to any of those events or conflicts insufficiently protects
Owners, We will take appropriate action.
A Fund may consist of separate Portfolios. The assets of each Portfolio are held
separate from the assets of the other Portfolios, and each Portfolio has its own
distinct investment objective and policies. Each Portfolio operates as a
separate investment fund, and the investment performance of one Portfolio has no
effect on the investment performance of any other Portfolio.
The thirty-four Portfolios are summarized below:
KEMPER VARIABLE SERIES (FORMERLY INVESTORS FUND SERIES)
KEMPER MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO seeks maximum current income to the extent
consistent with stability of principal from a portfolio of high quality money
market instruments. The Portfolio seeks to maintain a net asset value of $1.00

KEMPER TOTAL RETURN PORTFOLIO seeks a high total return, a combination of income
and capital appreciation, consistent with reasonable risk.

KEMPER HORIZON 20+ PORTFOLIO, designed for investors with approximately a 20+
year investment horizon, seeks growth of capital, with income as a secondary
objective.

year investment horizon, seeks a balance between growth of capital and income,

CHANGE OF INVESTMENTS
We reserve the right to make additions to, deletions from, or substitutions for
the shares held by the Separate Account or that the Separate Account may
purchase. We reserve the right to eliminate the shares of any of the Portfolios
and to substitute shares of another Portfolio or of another investment company,
if the shares of a Portfolio are no longer available for investment, or if in
Our judgment further investment in any Portfolio becomes inappropriate in view
of the purposes of the Separate Account. We will not substitute any shares
attributable to an Owner's interest in a Subaccount without prior notice and the
SEC's prior approval, if required. The Separate Account may purchase other
securities for other series or classes of policies, or may permit a conversion
between series or classes of policies on the basis of requests made by Owners.
We may establish additional subaccounts of the Separate Account, each of which
would invest in a new portfolio of the Funds, or in shares of another investment
company. New subaccounts may be established when, at Our discretion, marketing
needs or investment conditions warrant. New subaccounts may be made available to
existing Owners as We determine. We may also eliminate or combine one or more
subaccounts, transfer assets, or substitute one subaccount for another
subaccount, if, in Our discretion, marketing, tax, or investment conditions
warrant. We will notify all Owners of any such changes.
If we deem it to be in the best interests of persons having voting rights under
the Contract, the Separate Account may be: (a) operated as a management company
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"); (b) deregistered under
that Act in the event such registration is no longer required; or (c) combined
with Our other separate accounts. To the extent permitted by law, We may
transfer the assets of the Separate Account to another separate account or to
the General Account.
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
The Separate Account may advertise several types of performance information for
the Subaccounts. All Subaccounts may advertise standardized "average annual
total return" and nonstandardized "total return." The Kemper High Yield
Subaccount, Kemper Government Securities Subaccount and Kemper Investment Grade
Bond Subaccount might also advertise 'yield'. The Kemper Money Market Subaccount
may advertise "yield" and "effective yield." Each of these figures is based upon
historical earnings and is not necessarily representative of a Subaccount's
future performance.
18
<PAGE> 22
Standardized average annual total return and nonstandardized total return
calculations measure the Subaccount's net income plus the effect of any realized
or unrealized appreciation or depreciation of the Subaccount's underlying
investments for the period. Standardized average annual total return and
nonstandardized total return will be quoted for periods of at least one year,
three years, five years and ten years and a period covering the time the
underlying Portfolio has been held in the Subaccount (life of Subaccount) for
standardized average annual total return or a period covering the time the
underlying Portfolio has been in existence (life of Portfolio) for
nonstandardized total return. This information will be current for a period
ending with the most recent calendar quarter for standardized average annual
total return and the most recent calendar month for nonstandardized total
return. Standardized average annual total return figures are annualized, and,
therefore, represent the average annual percentage change in the value of a
Subaccount's investment over the applicable period. Nonstandardized total return
may include annualized and nonannualized (cumulative) figures. Nonannualized
figures represent the actual percentage change over the applicable period.
Yield is a measure of the net dividend and interest income earned over a
specific one month or 30-day period (seven-day period for the Kemper Money
Market Subaccount) expressed as a percentage of the value of the Subaccount's
Accumulation Units. Yield is an annualized figure, so the Subaccount generates
the same level of net income over a one year period which is compounded on a
semi-annual basis. The effective yield for the Kemper Money Market Subaccount is
calculated similarly but includes the effect of assumed compounding calculated
under rules prescribed by the SEC. The Kemper Money Market Subaccount's
effective yield will be slightly higher than its yield due to this compounding
effect.
The Subaccounts' units are sold at Accumulation Unit value. The Subaccounts'
performance figures and Accumulation Unit values will fluctuate. Units of the
Subaccounts are redeemable by an investor at Accumulation Unit value, which may
be more or less than original cost. The performance figures include the
deduction of all expenses and fees, including a prorated portion of the Records
Maintenance Charge. Redemptions within the first six years after purchase may be
subject to a Withdrawal Charge that ranges from 6% the first year to 0% after
six years. Yield, effective yield and nonstandardized total return figures do
not include the effect of any Withdrawal Charge that may be imposed upon the
redemption of units, and thus may be higher than if such charges were deducted.
Standardized average annual total return figures include the effect of the
applicable Withdrawal Charge that may be imposed at the end of the period in
question.
The Subaccounts may be compared to relevant indices and performance data from
independent sources. From time to time, the Separate Account may quote
information from publications such as MORNINGSTAR, INC., THE WALL STREET
JOURNAL, MONEY MAGAZINE, FORBES, BARRON'S, FORTUNE, THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE, USA
TODAY, INSTITUTIONAL INVESTOR, NATIONAL UNDERWRITER, SELLING LIFE INSURANCE,
BROKER WORLD, REGISTERED REPRESENTATIVE, INVESTMENT ADVISER and VARDS.
Additional information concerning a Subaccount's performance and these indices
and independent sources is provided in the Statement of Additional Information.
FIXED ACCOUNT OPTION
Amounts allocated or transferred to the Fixed Account are part of Our General
Account, supporting insurance and annuity obligations. Interests in the Fixed
Account are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 ("1933 Act"), and
the Fixed Account is not registered as an investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"). Accordingly, neither the Fixed
Account nor any interests therein generally are subject to the provisions of the
1933 or 1940 Acts. We have been advised that the staff of the SEC has not
reviewed the disclosures in this Prospectus relating to the Fixed Account.
Disclosures regarding the Fixed Account, however, may be subject to the general
provisions of the federal securities laws relating to the accuracy and
completeness of statements made in prospectuses.
Under the Fixed Account Option, We pay a fixed interest rate for stated periods.
This Prospectus describes only the aspects of the Contract involving the
Separate Account, unless We refer to fixed accumulation and annuity elements.
We guarantee that payments allocated to the Fixed Account earn a minimum fixed
interest rate of 3%. At our discretion, We may credit interest in excess of 3%.
We reserve the right to change the rate of excess interest credited. We also
reserve the right to declare different rates of excess interest depending on
when amounts are allocated or transferred to the Fixed Account. As a result,
amounts at any designated time may be credited with a different rate of excess
interest than the rate previously credited to such amounts and to amounts
allocated or transferred at any other designated time.
19
<PAGE> 23
THE CONTRACTS
A. GENERAL INFORMATION.
This Prospectus offers both Qualified Contracts and Non-Qualified Contracts. The
minimum Purchase Payment for a Qualified Contract is $50. However, if annualized
contribution amounts from a payroll or salary deduction plan are $600, a
periodic payment under $50 will be accepted. The maximum annual amount of
Purchase Payments may be limited by the retirement plan funded by the Contract.
For a Non-Qualified Contract the minimum initial Purchase Payment is $2,500 and
the minimum subsequent payment is $500. An initial allocation of less than $100
may be made to the General Account or to a Subaccount, or to the General Account
and one Subaccount. For a Non-Qualified Contract, no subsequent allocations of
Purchase Payments may be made to any additional Subaccount until allocations
total at least $100 to each Subaccount in which the Contract has an interest.
For a Qualified Contract, if annualized contribution amounts to a new Subaccount
from a payroll or salary reduction plan are at least $25 per month, allocations
to another such Subaccount may be made.
Effective January 1, 1998, a Contract Owner may make Purchase Payments to
Non-Qualified Contracts and Contracts issued as Individual Retirement Annuities
("IRAs") by authorizing Us to draw on an account of the Owner via check or
electronic debit ("Pre-Authorized Checking [PAC] Agreement"). For Purchase
Payments made pursuant to a PAC Agreement, the following minimum Purchase
Payment provisions apply:
- The minimum initial Purchase Payment to an IRA made pursuant to a PAC
Agreement is $100. The minimum initial Purchase Payment to a
Non-Qualified Contract made pursuant to a PAC Agreement is $1,000 unless
the Contract Owner also owns an existing Contract, in which case the
minimum is $100.
- The minimum subsequent Purchase Payment made pursuant to a PAC Agreement
is $100.
We may amend the Contract in accordance with changes in the law, including tax
laws, regulations or rulings, and for other purposes. Certain contracts are no
longer offered, although Purchase Payments are still permitted under these
previously issued contracts.
An Owner may examine a Contract and return it for a return during the "free
look" period. The length of the free look period depends upon the state in which
the Contract is issued. However, it will be at least 10 days from the date the
Owner receives the Contract. The amount of the refund depends on the state in
which the Contract is issued. Generally, it will be an amount at least equal to
the Separate Account Contract Value plus amounts allocated to the General
Account on the date We receive the returned Contract, without any deduction for
Withdrawal Charges or Records Maintenance Charges. Some states require the
return of the Purchase Payment.
During the Accumulation Period, the Owner may assign a Non-Qualified Contract or
change a Beneficiary at any time by signing Our form. No assignment or
Beneficiary change is binding on Us until We receive it. We assume no
responsibility for the validity of the assignment or Beneficiary change. An
assignment may subject the Owner to immediate tax liability and may subject the
Owner to a 10% tax penalty. (See "Federal Tax Matters.")
Amounts payable during the Annuity Period may not be assigned or encumbered. In
addition, to the extent permitted by law, annuity payments are not subject to
levy, attachment or other judicial process for the payment of the payee's debts
or obligations.
The Owner designates the Beneficiary. If the Annuitant or Owner dies, and no
designated Beneficiary or contingent beneficiary is alive at that time, We will
pay the Annuitant's or Owner's estate.
Under a Qualified Contract, the provisions of the applicable plan may prohibit a
change of Beneficiary. Generally, an interest in a Qualified Contract may not be
assigned.
B. THE ACCUMULATION PERIOD.
1. APPLICATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS.
The Owner selects allocation of Purchase Payments to the Subaccount(s) or the
Fixed Account. The amount of each Purchase Payment allocated to a Subaccount is
based on the value of an Accumulation Unit, as computed after We receive the
Purchase Payment. Generally, We determine the value of an Accumulation Unit by
3:00 p.m. Central time on each day that the New York Stock Exchange is open for
trading. Purchase Payments
20
<PAGE> 24
allocated to the Fixed Account begin earning interest one day after We receive
them. However, with respect to initial Purchase Payments, the amount is credited
only after We determine to issue the Contract. After the initial purchase, We
determine the number of Accumulation Units credited by dividing the Purchase
Payment allocated to a Subaccount by the Subaccounts Accumulation Unit value, as
computed after We receive the Purchase Payment. A Contract Owner is limited to
allocating Contract Value to a maximum of 18 allocation options over the life of
a Contract, plus the General Account.
The number of Accumulation Units will not change due to investment experience.
Accumulation Units value varies to reflect the investment experience of the
Subaccount and the assessment of charges against the Subaccount other than the
Records Maintenance Charge. The number of Accumulation Units is reduced when the
Records Maintenance Charge is assessed.
If We are not provided with information sufficient to establish a Contract or to
properly credit the initial Purchase Payment, We will promptly request the
necessary information. If the requested information is not furnished within five
business days after We receive the initial Purchase Payment, or if We determine
that We cannot otherwise issue the Contract within the five day period, We will
return the initial Purchase Payment to the Owner, unless the Owner consents to
Our retaining the initial purchase payment until the application is completed.
We may issue a Contract without a signed application if:
- a dealer provides us with application information, electronically or in
writing
- we receive the initial Purchase Payment and
- the Owner confirms in writing, after the Contract is delivered, that all
information in the Contract is correct.
2. ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE.
Each Subaccount has an Accumulation Unit value. When Purchase Payments or other
amounts are allocated to a Subaccount, the number of units purchased is based on
the Subaccount's Accumulation Unit value at the end of the current Valuation
Period. When amounts are transferred out of or deducted from a Subaccount, units
are redeemed in a similar manner.
The Accumulation Unit value for each subsequent Valuation Period is the
investment experience factor for that Valuation Period times the Accumulation
Unit value for the preceding Valuation Period. Each Valuation Period has a
single Accumulation Unit value which applies to each day in the Valuation
Period.
Each Subaccount has its own investment experience factor. The investment
experience of the Separate Account is calculated by applying the investment
experience factor to the Accumulation Unit value in each Subaccount during a
Valuation Period.
The investment experience factor of a Subaccount for any Valuation Period is
determined by the following formula:
(1 / 2) - 3, where:
(1) is the net result of:
- the net asset value per share of the investment held in the Subaccount
determined at the end of the current Valuation Period; plus
- the per share amount of any dividend or capital gain distributions made
by the investments held in the Subaccount, if the "ex-dividend" date
occurs during the current Valuation Period; plus or minus
- a charge or credit for any taxes reserved for the current Valuation
Period which We determine have resulted from the investment operations
of the Subaccount;
(2) is the net asset value per share of the investment held in the Subaccount
determined at the end of the preceding Valuation Period;
(3) is the factor representing the mortality and expense risk and
administration charges.
21
<PAGE> 25
3. CONTRACT VALUE.
On any Valuation Date, the Contract Value equals the total of:
- the number of Accumulation Units credited to each Subaccount, times
- the value of a corresponding Accumulation Unit for each Subaccount, plus
- the Owner's interest in the General Account.
4. TRANSFER DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD.
During the Accumulation Period, an Owner may transfer the Contract Value among
the Subaccounts and the General Account subject to the following provisions:
- The General Account Contract Value, minus Debt, may be transferred two
times during the Contract Year to one or more Subaccounts in the thirty
days following an anniversary of a Contract Year or the thirty days
following the date of the confirmation statement provided for the period
through the anniversary date, if later; and
- A Contract Owner is limited to allocating Contract Value to a maximum of
18 allocation options over the life of a Contract, plus the General
Account.
If an Owner authorizes a third party to transact transfers on the Owner's
behalf, we will reallocate the Contract Value pursuant to the authorized asset
allocation program. However, we do not offer or participate in any asset
allocation program and we take no responsibility for any third party asset
allocation program. We may suspend or cancel acceptance of a third party's
instructions at any time and may restrict the investment options available for
transfer under third party authorizations.
We will make transfers pursuant to proper written or telephone instructions
which specify in detail the requested changes. Before telephone transfer
instructions will be honored, the Owner must complete a telephone transfer
authorization. The minimum partial transfer amount is $100. No partial transfer
may be made if the value of the Owner's remaining Contract interest in a
Subaccount or the General Account, from which amounts are to be transferred,
would be less than $100 after transfer. Transfers involving a Subaccount will be
based upon the Accumulation Unit values determined following Our receipt of
complete transfer instructions. The transfer privilege may be suspended,
modified or terminated at any time (subject to state requirements). We disclaim
all liability for following instructions which are given in accordance with Our
procedures, including requests for personal identifying information, that are
designed to limit unauthorized use of the privilege. Therefore, an Owner bears
the risk of loss in the event of a fraudulent telephone transfer.
5. WITHDRAWAL DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD.
An Owner may redeem some or all of the Contract Value minus Debt, charges and
previous withdrawals. Withdrawals may be subject to income tax and a 10% penalty
tax. (See "Federal Tax Matters.") A withdrawal of all Contract Value is called a
surrender.
An Owner may withdraw up to 10% of the Contract Value minus Debt in any Contract
Year without charge. If the Owner withdraws more than 10% of the Contract Value
in any Contract Year, the amount withdrawn in excess of 10% is subject to a
Withdrawal Charge. (See "Withdrawal Charge")
For Contracts in more than one investment option, an Owner requesting a partial
withdrawal must specify what portion of the Owner's Contract interest is to be
redeemed. If an Owner does not specify, We will redeem Accumulation Units from
all investment options in which the Owner has an interest on a pro-rata basis.
The Accumulation Units attributable to the earliest Contribution Years are
redeemed first.
The Owner may request a partial withdrawal subject to the following:
- The amount requested must be at least $500 in each investment option or
the General Account from which withdrawal is requested.
- The Owner must leave at least $500 in each investment option from which
the withdrawal is requested unless the total value is transferred.
Election to withdraw shall be made in writing to Us at Our home office: Kemper
Investors Life Insurance Company, Customer Service, 1 Kemper Drive, Long Grove,
IL 60049 and should be accompanied by the
22
<PAGE> 26
Contract if surrender is requested. Withdrawal requests are processed only on
days when the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. The Withdrawal Value
attributable to the Subaccounts is determined on the basis of the Accumulation
Unit values calculated after We receive the request. The Withdrawal Value
attributable to the Subaccounts will be paid within seven days after the date We
receive a written request at Our home office provided, however, that We may
suspend withdrawals or delay payment more than seven days
- during any period when the New York Stock Exchange is closed,
- when trading is restricted or the SEC determines an emergency exists, or
- as the SEC by order may permit.
Withdrawals are permitted from Contracts issued in connection with Section
403(b) Qualified Plans only under limited circumstances. (See "Federal Tax
Matters.")
A participant in the Texas Optional Retirement Program ("ORP") must obtain a
certificate of termination from the participant's employer before a Contract can
be redeemed. The Attorney General of Texas has ruled that participants in the
ORP may redeem their interest in a Contract issued pursuant to the ORP only upon
termination of employment in Texas public institutions of higher education, or
upon retirement, death or total disability. In those states adopting similar
requirements for optional retirement programs, We will follow similar
procedures.
6. DEATH BENEFIT.
If the Annuitant dies during the Accumulation Period, prior to attaining age 75,
the Contract Value less Debt as computed at the end of the Valuation Period next
following Our receipt of proof of death and the return of the Contract, or the
total amount of Purchase Payments less Debt, whichever is greater, will be paid
to the designated Beneficiary. If a Contract has been subject to any partial
withdrawal, the death benefit will be the greater of
- the Contract Value less Debt or
- the total amount of Purchase Payments, minus both Debt and the aggregate
dollar amount of all previous partial withdrawals. If death occurs at age
75 or later, the death benefit is the Contract Value minus Debt. The
Owner or Beneficiary, as appropriate, may elect to have all or a part of
the death proceeds paid to the Beneficiary under one of the Annuity
Options described under "Annuity Options" below.
For Non-Qualified Contracts issued after January 19, 1985, if the Owner is not
the Annuitant and the Owner dies before the Annuitant, the death benefit will be
paid to the designated Beneficiary. The available Annuity Options are limited by
the Code, as described under "Annuity Options." The death benefit is determined
as stated above, except that the age of the Owner at death is used in
determining the amount payable. If the Beneficiary is the surviving spouse of
the Owner, the surviving spouse may elect to be treated as the successor Owner
of the Contract and is not required to begin death benefit distribution. The
issue age of the deceased Owner applies in computing the death benefit, payable
at the death of a spouse who has elected to be treated as the successor Owner.
For Contracts issued after March 1, 1997 as Individual Retirement Annuities,
Simplified Employee Pensions or Non-Qualified Contracts, the death benefit will
be determined as follows. If death occurs prior to the deceased's attainment of
age 90, the death benefit will be the greater of:
- the total amount of Purchase Payments minus Debt minus the aggregate
amount of all previous partial withdrawals,
- the Contract Value minus Debt, or
- the greatest Anniversary Value immediately preceding the date of death,
minus Debt. The greatest Anniversary Value is equal to the highest
Anniversary Value determined from the following. An Anniversary Value is
calculated for each contract anniversary before the deceased's 81st
birthday. The Anniversary Value for a particular Contract Anniversary is
the Contract Value on that anniversary, plus the dollar amount of any
Purchase Payments made since that anniversary minus any withdrawals since
that anniversary. If death occurs on or after the deceased's 90th
birthday, the death benefit will be the Contract Value minus Debt and
minus previous withdrawals.
23
<PAGE> 27
7. LOANS.
The Owner of a Contract issued as a tax sheltered annuity under Section 403(b)
of the Code or with a qualified plan under Code Section 401 may request a loan
(if permitted by the ERISA Qualified Plan) any time during the accumulation
period. Loans are made from the General Account and are limited to the General
Account Contract Value minus any withdrawal charge that would apply to the
Contract Value and minus interest on the loan for the remainder of the Contract
Year. In general, under the Code loans may not exceed 50% of the Contract Value.
If the Contract Value is at least $20,000 or the Contract is part of an ERISA
qualified plan, the maximum loan amount is the lesser of:
- 50% of the Contract Value, or
- $50,000 reduced by the highest loan balance over the prior 12 months.
If the Contract Value is less than $20,000 and is not part of an ERISA qualified
plan, the maximum loan amount is the lesser of:
- $10,000, or
- 80% of the Contract Value.
The minimum loan is $1,000.
For non-ERISA loans, the loan interest rate is 5.5% per year. For loans issued
under ERISA plans, the loan interest rate will vary based on current rates.
Interest that is not paid when due is added to the loan and will bear interest
at the same rate as the loan. While the loan is outstanding, the portion of the
General Account Contract Value that equals the debt will earn interest at a rate
2.5% less than the loan rate.
Loans must be repaid in substantially equal quarterly payments within 5 years.
Loans used to purchase the principal residence of the Owner must be repaid
within 30 years.
If a loan payment is not made when due, interest will continue to accrue. On
403(b) Contracts, to the extent permitted by law, the amount of the defaulted
payment plus accrued interest will be deducted from the Contract and paid to Us.
Any loan payment which is not made when due, plus interest, will be treated as a
distribution as permitted by law, may be taxable to the borrower, and may be
subject to early withdrawal tax penalty.
If there is an outstanding loan balance when the Contract is surrendered or
annuitized, or when a death benefit is paid, the amount payable will be reduced
by the amount of the loan outstanding plus accrued interest. Any loans made
under a Contract will be subject to Code requirements, Our administrative
procedures as reflected under Our loan agreements, and, if applicable, ERISA.
CONTRACT CHARGES AND EXPENSES
We deduct the following charges and expenses:
- mortality and expense risk charge
- administrative expenses
- Records Maintenance Charge
- Withdrawal Charge
- Premium Tax
Subject to certain expense limitations, investment management fees and other
Fund expenses are indirectly borne by the Owner.
We assess each Subaccount a daily asset charge for administration and mortality
and expense risks at a rate of 1.30% per annum. Flexible Payment Contracts (no
longer offered) have a daily asset charge of 1.0%. We may decrease these charges
without notice, but will not exceed these amounts.
24
<PAGE> 28
A. ASSET-BASED CHARGES AGAINST THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT.
1. MORTALITY RISK.
Variable Annuity payments reflect the investment experience of each Subaccount
but are not affected by changes in actual mortality experience or by actual
expenses incurred by KILICO.
Our mortality risk arises from two obligations. The first obligation We assume
is to pay a guaranteed death benefit that may be greater than the Contract Value
minus Debt. The second obligation We assume is to continue making annuity
payments to each Annuitant for the entire life of the Annuitant under Annuity
Options involving life contingencies. This assures each Annuitant that neither
the Annuitant's own longevity nor an improvement in life expectancy generally
will have an adverse effect on the annuity payments received under a Contract
and relieves the Annuitant from the risk of outliving the amounts accumulated
for retirement.
2. EXPENSE RISK.
We also assume the risk that all administrative expenses including Contract
maintenance costs, administrative costs, data processing costs and costs of
other services may exceed the Records Maintenance Charge or the amount recovered
from the administrative cost portion of the daily asset charge.
3. ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS.
The daily asset charge for administrative costs reimburses Us for the expenses
incurred for administering the Contracts, which include, among other things,
responding to Owner inquiries, processing changes in Purchase Payment
allocations and providing reports to Owners.
B. RECORDS MAINTENANCE CHARGE
KILICO will assess an annual Records Maintenance Charge (assessed ratably each
quarter) during the Accumulation Period against each Contract which has
participated in one or more of the Subaccounts during the calendar year whether
or not any Purchase Payments have been made during the year. The Records
Maintenance Charge is:
- $30 annually for Contracts with Contract Value under $25,000.
- $15 annually for Contracts with Contract Value between $25,000 and
$50,000.
- No Records Maintenance Charge for Contracts with Contract Value over
$50,000.
The Record Maintenance Charge is not assessed during the Annuity Period.
The Records Maintenance Charge is to reimburse Us for expenses incurred in
establishing and maintaining the records relating to a Contract's participation
in the Separate Account. The Records Maintenance Charge will be assessed at the
end of each calendar quarter and will constitute a reduction in the net assets
of each Subaccount.
At any time the Records Maintenance Charge is assessed, the applicable charge
will be assessed ratably against each Subaccount in which the Contract is
participating and a number of Accumulation Units sufficient to equal the proper
portion of the charge will be redeemed from such Subaccount, or from the General
Account Contract Value if necessary to meet the assessment.
For Contracts issued on or after March 1, 1997 as Individual Retirement
Annuities, Simplified Employee Pensions or Non-Qualified Plan Contracts, the
Records Maintenance Charge will be eliminated for Contracts with a Contract
Value equaling or exceeding $50,000 on the date of assessment.
C. WITHDRAWAL CHARGE.
We do not deduct a sales charge from any Purchase Payment. However, a Withdrawal
Charge covers Contract sales expenses, including commissions and other promotion
and acquisition expenses.
Each Contract Year, an Owner may withdraw, without Withdrawal Charge, 10% of the
Contract Value.
25
<PAGE> 29
If the Owner withdraws a larger amount, the excess Purchase Payments and
interest attributed to the Purchase Payments withdrawn are subject to a
Withdrawal Charge. The Withdrawal Charge applies in the first seven Contribution
Years following each Purchase Payment as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
CONTRIBUTION WITHDRAWAL
YEAR CHARGE
------------ ----------
<S> <C>
First...................................... 6%
Second..................................... 5%
Third...................................... 4%
Fourth..................................... 3%
Fifth...................................... 2%
Sixth...................................... 1%
Seventh and following...................... 0%
</TABLE>
Purchase Payments are deemed surrendered in the order in which they were
received.
When a withdrawal is requested, the Owner receives a check in the amount
requested. If a Withdrawal Charge applies, Contract Value is reduced by the
Withdrawal Charge and the dollar amount sent to the Owner.
Because Contribution Years are based on the date each Purchase Payment is made,
Owners may be subject to a Withdrawal Charge even though the Contract may have
been issued many years earlier. (For additional details, see "Withdrawal During
Accumulation Period.") The aggregate Withdrawal Charges assessed will never
exceed 7.25% of the aggregate Purchase Payments.
The Withdrawal Charge compensates Us for Contract distribution expense.
Currently, We anticipate Withdrawal Charges will not fully cover distribution
expenses. Unrecovered distribution expenses may be recovered from Our general
assets. Those assets may include proceeds from the mortality and expense risk
charge.
The Withdrawal Charge also applies at annuitization to amounts attributable to
Purchase Payments in their sixth Contribution Year or earlier. No Withdrawal
Charge applies upon annuitization if the Owner selects Annuity Options 2, 3 or 4
or if payments under Annuity Option 1 are scheduled to continue for at least
five years. See "The Annuity Period -- Annuity Options" for a discussion of the
Annuity Options available.
We may reduce or eliminate the Withdrawal Charge if We anticipate that We will
incur lower sales expenses or perform fewer services because of economies due to
the size of a group, the average contribution per participant, or the use of
mass enrollment procedures. No Withdrawal Charge applies to Contracts sold to
officers, directors and employees of KILICO and Kemper Variable Series (formerly
Investors Fund Series) ("KVS"), KVS investment advisers and principal
underwriter or certain affiliated companies, or to any trust, pension, profit-
sharing or other benefit plan for such persons.
D. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER EXPENSES
Each Portfolio's net asset value reflects the deductions of investment
management fees and certain general operating expenses. Subject to limitations,
Owners directly bear these fees and expenses. Investment management fees appear
on page 4. Further detail is provided in the attached prospectuses for the
Portfolios and the Funds' Statements of Additional Information.
E. STATE PREMIUM TAXES
Certain state and local governments impose a premium tax ranging from 0% to 3.5%
of Purchase Payments. If We pay state premium taxes, We may charge the amount
paid against Contract Value upon annuitization if not previously assessed. See
"Appendix -- State Premium Tax Chart" in the Statement of Additional
Information.
F. REDUCTION OR ELIMINATION OF CERTAIN CHARGES
Contracts may be available for purchase in certain group or sponsored
arrangements that qualify for reductions or eliminations of certain charges, the
time periods in which such charges apply, or both. Group arrangements include
those in which a trustee, an employer or an association purchases Contracts
covering a group of individuals. Sponsored arrangements include those in which
an employer or association allows Us to offer Contracts to its employees or
members on an individual basis.
In certain circumstances, the risk of adverse mortality and expense experience
for Contracts purchased in certain group or sponsored arrangements may be
reduced. Then, the daily asset charge for mortality and
26
<PAGE> 30
expense costs may likewise be reduced. The daily asset charge for administrative
costs and the Records Maintenance Charge may also be reduced or eliminated if We
anticipate lower administrative expenses. In certain other circumstances, sales
expenses purchased in certain group or sponsored arrangements may be reduced or
eliminated and the applicable Withdrawal Charges may be reduced or eliminated.
In determining whether a group or sponsored arrangement qualifies for reduced or
eliminated charges, We will consider:
- the size and type of group to which sales are to be made and
administrative services provided, and the persistency expected from the
group;
- the total amount of Purchase Payments to be received and the method in
which they will be remitted;
- any prior or existing relationship with Us;
- the level of commission paid to selling broker-dealers;
- the purpose for which the Contract is being purchased, and whether that
purchase makes it likely that sales costs and administrative expenses
will be reduced; and
- the frequency of projected surrenders or distributions.
We make any reductions or eliminations according to objective guidelines in
effect when an application for a Contract is approved. We may change these
guidelines from time to time. Any variation in the charges will reflect
differences in costs or services and will be offered uniformly to all members of
the group or sponsored arrangement. In no event will a charge reduction or
elimination be permitted if it is unfairly discriminatory to any person or
prohibited by law.
THE ANNUITY PERIOD
Contracts may be annuitized under one of several Annuity Options. Annuity
payments will begin on the Annuity Date under the Annuity Option selected by the
Owner.
1. ANNUITY PAYMENTS.
Annuity payments are based on:
- the annuity table specified in the Contract,
- the selected Annuity Option, and
- the investment performance of the selected Subaccount.
Under variable annuitization, the Annuitant receives the value of a fixed number
of Annuity Units each month. An Annuity Unit's value reflects the investment
performance of the Subaccount(s) selected. The amount of each annuity payment
varies accordingly. Annuity payments may be subject to a Withdrawal Charge. (For
additional details, see "Withdrawal Charge.")
2. ANNUITY OPTIONS.
The Contract Owner may elect one of the Annuity Options. The Owner may decide at
any time (subject to the provisions of any applicable retirement plan) to begin
annuity payments. The Owner may change an Annuity Option before the Annuity
Date. For a Non-Qualified Contract, if no other Annuity Option is elected,
monthly annuity payments will be made in accordance with Option 3 below with a
ten (10) year period certain. For a Qualified Contract, if no other Annuity
Option is elected, monthly annuity payments will be made in the form of a
qualified joint and survivor annuity with a monthly income at two-thirds of the
full amount payable during the lifetime of the surviving payee. Generally,
annuity payments are made in monthly installments. However, We may make a lump
sum payment if the net proceeds available to apply under an Annuity Option are
less than $2,000. In addition, if the first monthly payment is less than $25, We
may change the frequency of payments to quarterly, semiannual or annual
intervals so that the initial payment is at least $25.
The amount of periodic annuity payments may depend upon:
- the Annuity Option selected;
27
<PAGE> 31
- the age and sex of the payee; and
- the investment experience of the selected Subaccount(s).
For example:
- if Option 1, income for a specified period, is selected, shorter periods
result in fewer payments with higher values.
- if Option 2, life income, is selected, it is likely that each payment
will be smaller than would result if income for a short period were
specified.
- if Option 3, life income with installments guaranteed, is selected, each
payment will probably be smaller than would result if the life income
option were selected.
- if Option 4, the joint and survivor annuity, is selected, each payment is
smaller than those measured by an individual life income option.
The age of the payee also influences the amount of periodic annuity payments
because an older payee is expected to have a shorter life span, resulting in
larger payments. The sex of the payee influences the amount of periodic
payments. Finally, if the Owner participates in a Subaccount with higher
investment performance, it is likely the Owner will receive a higher periodic
payment.
If the Owner dies before the Annuity Date, available Annuity Options are
limited. The Annuity Options available are:
- Option 2 or
- Option 1 or 3 for a period no longer than the life expectancy of the
Beneficiary (but not less than 5 years from the Owner's death).
If the Beneficiary is not an individual, the entire interest must be distributed
within 5 years of the Owner's death. The Death Benefit distribution must begin
no later than one year from the Owner's death, unless a later date is prescribed
by federal regulation.
OPTION 1--INCOME FOR SPECIFIED PERIOD.
Option 1 provides an annuity payable monthly for a selected number of years
ranging from five to thirty. Upon the payee's death, if the Beneficiary is an
individual, We automatically continue payments to the Beneficiary for the
remainder of the period specified. If the Beneficiary is not an individual
(e.g., an estate or trust), we pay the discounted value of the remaining
payments in the specified period. Although there is no life contingency risk
associated with Option 1, We continue to deduct the daily asset charges for
mortality and expense risks and administrative costs.
Payees may elect to cancel all or part of the remaining payments due under
Option 1. We will then pay the discounted value of the remaining payments.
OPTION 2--LIFE INCOME.
Option 2 provides for an annuity over the lifetime of the payee. If Option 2 is
elected, annuity payments terminate automatically and immediately on the payee's
death without regard to the number or total amount of payments made. Thus, it is
possible for an individual to receive only one payment if death occurred prior
to the date the second payment was due.
OPTION 3--LIFE INCOME WITH INSTALLMENTS GUARANTEED.
Option 3 provides an annuity payable monthly during the payee's lifetime.
However, Option 3 also provides for the automatic continuation of payments for
the remainder of the specified period if the Beneficiary is an individual and
payments have been made for less than the specified period. The period specified
may be five, ten, fifteen or twenty years. If the Beneficiary is not an
individual, We pay the discounted value of the remaining payments in the
specified period.
OPTION 4--JOINT AND SURVIVOR ANNUITY.
Option 4 provides an annuity payable monthly while both payees are living. Upon
either payee's death, the monthly income payable continues over the life of the
surviving payee at a percentage specified when Option 4
28
<PAGE> 32
is elected. Annuity payments terminate automatically and immediately upon the
surviving payee's death without regard to the number or total amount of payments
received.
3. ALLOCATION OF ANNUITY.
The Owner may elect to have payments made on a fixed or variable basis, or a
combination of both. An Owner may exercise the transfer privilege during the
Accumulation Period for the purposes of such allocation. Any General Account
Contract Value will be annuitized on a fixed basis. Any Separate Account
Contract Value will be annuitized on a variable basis. Transfers during the
Annuity Period are permitted subject to certain limitations.
4. TRANSFER DURING ANNUITY PERIOD.
During the Annuity Period, the payee may, by written request, transfer
Subaccount Value from one Subaccount to another Subaccount or to the Fixed
Account, subject to the following limitations:
- Transfers to a Subaccount are prohibited during the first year of the
Annuity Period; subsequent transfers are limited to one per year.
- All interest in a Subaccount must be transferred.
- If We receive notice of transfer to a Subaccount more than seven (7) days
before an annuity payment date, the transfer is effective during the
Valuation Period after the date we receive the notice.
- If We receive notice of transfer to a Subaccount less than seven (7) days
before an annuity payment date, the transfer is effective during the
Valuation Period after the annuity payment date.
- Transfers to the Fixed Account are available only on an anniversary of
the first Annuity Date. We must receive notice at least thirty (30) days
prior to the anniversary.
A Subaccount's Annuity Unit value is determined at the end of the Valuation
Period preceding the effective date of the transfer. We may suspend, change or
terminate the transfer privilege at any time.
5. ANNUITY UNIT VALUE.
Annuity Unit value is determined independently for each Subaccount.
Annuity Unit value for any Valuation Period is:
- Annuity Unit value for the preceding Valuation Period times
- the net investment factor for the current Valuation Period times
- an interest factor which offsets the 2.5% per annum rate of investment
earnings assumed by the Contract's annuity tables.
The net investment factor for a Subaccount for any Valuation Period is:
- the Subaccount's Accumulation Unit value at the end of the current
Valuation Period, plus or minus the per share charge or credit for taxes
reserved; divided by
- the Subaccount's Accumulation value at the end of the preceding Valuation
Period, plus or minus the per share charge or credit for taxes reserved.
6. FIRST PERIODIC PAYMENT UNDER VARIABLE ANNUITY.
When annuity payments begin, the value of the Owner's Contract interest is:
- Accumulation Unit values at the end of the Valuation Period falling on
the 20th or 7th day of the month before the first annuity payment is due
times
- the number of Accumulation Units credited at the end of the Valuation
Period minus
- premium taxes and Withdrawal Charges
The first annuity payment is determined by multiplying the benefit per $1,000 of
value shown in the applicable annuity table by the number of thousands of
dollars of Contract Value.
29
<PAGE> 33
A 2.5% per annum rate of investment earning is assumed by the Contract's annuity
tables. If the actual net investment earnings rate exceeds 2.5% per annum,
payments increase accordingly. Conversely, if the actual rate is less than 2.5%
per annum, annuity payments decrease.
7. SUBSEQUENT PERIODIC PAYMENTS UNDER VARIABLE ANNUITY.
Subsequent annuity payments are determined by multiplying the number of Annuity
Units by the Annuity Unit value at the Valuation Period before each annuity
payment is due. The first annuity payment is divided by the Annuity Unit value
as of the Annuity Date to establish the number of Annuity Units representing
each annuity payment. This number does not change.
8. FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS.
Each Fixed Annuity payment is determined from tables We prepare. These tables
show the monthly payment for each $1,000 of Contract Value allocated to a Fixed
Annuity. Payment is based on the Contract Value at the date before the annuity
payment is due. Fixed Annuity payments do not change regardless of investment,
mortality or expense experience.
9. DEATH PROCEEDS.
If the payee dies after the Annuity Date while the Contract is in force, the
death proceeds, if any, depend upon the form of annuity payment in effect at the
time of death. (See "Annuity Options.")
FEDERAL TAX MATTERS
A. INTRODUCTION
This discussion is not exhaustive and is not intended as tax advice. A qualified
tax adviser should always be consulted with regard to the application of the law
to individual circumstances. This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), Treasury Department regulations, and
interpretations existing on the date of this Prospectus. These authorities,
however, are subject to change by Congress, the Treasury Department, and
judicial decisions.
This discussion does not address state or local tax consequences associated with
buying a Contract. IN ADDITION, WE MAKE NO GUARANTEE REGARDING ANY TAX
TREATMENT--FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL--OF ANY CONTRACT OR OF ANY TRANSACTION
INVOLVING A CONTRACT.
B. OUR TAX STATUS
We are taxed as a life insurance company and the operations of the Separate
Account are treated as a part of Our total operations. The Separate Account is
not separately taxed as a "regulated investment company". Investment income and
capital gains of the Separate Account are not taxed to the extent they are
applied under a Contract. We do not anticipate that We will incur federal income
tax liability attributable to the income and gains of the Separate Account, and
therefore We do not intend to provide for these taxes. If We are taxed on
investment income or capital gains of the Separate Account, then We may impose a
charge against the Separate Account to provide for these taxes.
C. TAXATION OF ANNUITIES IN GENERAL
1. TAX DEFERRAL DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD
Under the Code, except as described below, increases in the Contract Value of a
Non-Qualified Contract are generally not taxable to the Owner or Annuitant until
received as annuity payments or otherwise distributed. However, certain
requirements must be satisfied for this general rule to apply, including:
- the Contract must be owned by an individual
- Separate Account investments must be "adequately diversified"
- We, rather than the Owner, must be considered the owner of Separate
Account assets for federal tax purposes, and
30
<PAGE> 34
- annuity payments must appropriately amortize Purchase Payments and
Contract earnings.
NON-NATURAL OWNER. As a general rule, deferred annuity contracts held by
"non-natural persons", such as corporations, trusts or similar entities, are not
annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. The investment income on
these contracts is taxed as ordinary income received or accrued by the
non-natural owner. There are exceptions to this general rule for non-natural
owners. Contracts are generally treated as held by a natural person if the
nominal owner is a trust or other entity holding the contract as an agent for a
natural person. However, this special exception does not apply to an employer
who is the nominal owner of a contract under a non-qualified deferred
compensation plan for its employees.
Additional exceptions to this rule include:
- contracts acquired by a decedent's estate
- certain Qualified Plan Contracts
- contracts purchased by employers at termination of certain qualified
plans
- contracts used with structured settlement agreements
- contracts purchased with a single premium when the annuity starting date
is no later than a year from contract purchase and substantially equal
periodic payments are made at least annually.
DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS. For a contract to be treated as an annuity for
federal income tax purposes, separate account investments must be "adequately
diversified". The Treasury Secretary issued regulations prescribing standards
for adequately diversifying separate account investments. If the Separate
Account failed to comply with these diversification standards, the Contract
would not be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes and
the Owner would generally be taxed on the difference between Contract Value and
Purchase Payments.
Although We do not control Fund investments, We expect the Funds will comply
with these regulations so that the Separate Account will be considered
"adequately diversified."
OWNERSHIP TREATMENT. In certain circumstances, a variable annuity contract owner
may be considered the owner of the assets of the separate account supporting the
contract. Then, income and gains from separate account assets are includible in
the owner's gross income. The IRS, in published rulings, stated that a variable
contract owner will be considered the owner of separate account assets if the
owner possesses the ability to exercise investment control over the assets. As
of the date of this Prospectus, no investor control guidance is available.
We may modify the Contract as necessary to attempt to prevent the Owner from
being considered the owner of the Separate Account assets.
DELAYED ANNUITY DATES. If the Annuity Date occurs (or is scheduled to occur)
when the Annuitant has reached an advanced age, E.G., past age 85, the Contract
might not be treated as an annuity for federal income tax purposes. In that
event, the income and gains under the Contract could be currently includible in
the Owner's income.
The following discussion assumes that the Contract is treated as an annuity
contract for tax purposes and that We are treated as the owner of Separate
Account assets.
2. TAXATION OF PARTIAL AND FULL WITHDRAWALS
Partial withdrawals from a Non-Qualified Contract are includible in income if
the withdrawal includes investment gain. Full withdrawals are also includible in
income if they exceed the "investment in the contract." Investment in the
contract equals the total of Purchase Payments minus amounts previously received
from the Contract.
Any assignment or pledge (or agreement to assign or pledge) of Contract Value,
is treated as a withdrawal. Investment in the contract is increased by the
amount includible in income with respect to such assignment or pledge. If an
individual transfers a Contract interest without adequate consideration to
someone other than the Owner's spouse (or to a former spouse incident to
divorce), the Owner is taxed on the difference between Contract Value and the
"investment in the contract." In this case, the transferee's investment in the
contract is increased to reflect the increase in the transferor's income.
31
<PAGE> 35
The Contract's death benefit may exceed Purchase Payments or Contract Value. As
described in this Prospectus, We impose certain charges with respect to the
death benefit. It is possible that those charges (or some portion) could be
treated as a partial withdrawal.
There may be special income tax issues present in situations where the Owner and
the Annuitant are not the same person and are not married to one another. A tax
adviser should be consulted in those situations.
3. TAXATION OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS
Normally, the portion of each annuity payment taxable as income equals the
payment minus the exclusion amount. The exclusion amount for variable annuity
payments is the "investment in the contract" allocated to the variable annuity
option and adjusted for any period certain or refund feature, divided by the
number of payments expected to be made. The exclusion amount for fixed annuity
payments is the payment times the ratio of the investment in the contract
allocated to the fixed annuity option and adjusted for any period certain or
refund feature, to expected value of all annuity payments.
Once the total amount of the investment in the contract is excluded using these
ratios, annuity payments will be fully taxable. If annuity payments stop because
the Annuitant dies before the total amount of the investment in the contract is
recovered, the unrecovered amount generally is allowed as a deduction to the
Annuitant in the last taxable year.
4. TAXATION OF DEATH BENEFITS
Amounts may be distributed upon the Owner's or Annuitant's death. Before the
Annuity Date, death benefits are includible in income and:
- if distributed in a lump sum are taxed like a full withdrawal, or
- if distributed under an annuity option are taxed like annuity payments.
After the Annuity Date, where a guaranteed period exists and the Annuitant dies
before the end of that period, payments made to the Beneficiary for the
remainder of that period are includible in income and:
- if received in a lump sum are includible in income if they exceed the
unrecovered investment, or
- if distributed in accordance with the selected annuity option are fully
excludable from income until the remaining investment in the contract is
deemed to be recovered.
Thereafter, all annuity payments are fully includible in income.
5. PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS
A 10% penalty tax applies to a taxable payment from a Non-Qualified Contract
unless:
- received on or after the Owner reaches age 59 1/2,
- attributable to the Owner's disability,
- made to a Beneficiary after the Owner's death or, for non-natural Owners,
after the primary Annuitant's death,
- made as a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least
annually) for the life (or life expectancy) of the Annuitant or for the
joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the Annuitant and designated
Beneficiary,
- made under a Contract purchased with a single premium when the annuity
starting date is no later than a year from Contract purchase and
substantially equal periodic payments are made at least annually, or
- made with annuities used with structured settlement agreements.
6. AGGREGATION OF CONTRACTS
The taxable amount of an annuity payment or withdrawal from a Non-Qualified
Contract is determined by combining some or all of the Non-Qualified Contracts
owned by an individual. For example, if a person purchases a Contract and also
purchases an immediate annuity at approximately the same time, the IRS may
32
<PAGE> 36
treat the two contracts as one contract. In addition, if a person purchases two
or more deferred annuity contracts from the same company (or its affiliates)
during any calendar year, these contracts are treated as one contract. The
effects of this aggregation are not clear. However, it could affect the taxable
amount of an annuity payment or withdrawal and the amount which might be subject
to the 10% penalty tax.
7. LOSS OF INTEREST DEDUCTION WHERE CONTRACTS ARE HELD BY OR FOR THE BENEFIT OF
CERTAIN NON-NATURAL PERSONS
For Contracts issued after June 8, 1997 to a non-natural owner, otherwise
deductible interest may no longer be deductible by the owner. However, this
interest deduction disallowance does not affect Contracts generating taxable
income. Entities considering purchasing the Contract, or entities that will be
beneficiaries under a Contract, should consult a tax adviser.
D. QUALIFIED PLANS
The Contracts are also designed for use in connection with retirement plans
which receive favorable treatment under sections 401, 403, 408, 408A or 457 of
the Code ("Qualified Plans"). Such contracts are referred to as "Qualified
Contracts." Numerous special tax rules apply to the participants in Qualified
Plans and to Qualified Contracts. We make no attempt in this Prospectus to
provide more than general information about use of the Contract with the various
types of Qualified Plans.
The tax rules applicable to Qualified Plans vary according to the type of plan
and the terms and conditions of the plan. For example, for both withdrawals and
annuity payments under certain Qualified Contracts, there may be no "investment
in the contract" and the total amount received may be taxable. Also, loans from
Qualified Contracts, where allowed, are subject to a variety of limitations,
including restrictions as to the amount that may be borrowed, the duration of
the loan, the number of allowable loans and the manner in which the loan must be
repaid. (Owners should always consult their tax advisers and retirement plan
fiduciaries prior to exercising their loan privileges.) Both the amount of the
contribution that may be made, and the tax deduction or exclusion that the Owner
may claim for such contribution, are limited under Qualified Plans. If this
Contract is used with a Qualified Plan, the Owner and Annuitant must be the same
individual. If a joint Annuitant is named, all distributions made while the
Annuitant is alive must be made to the Annuitant. Also, if a joint Annuitant is
named who is not the Annuitant's spouse, the annuity options which are available
may be limited, depending on the difference in their ages. Furthermore, the
length of any guarantee period may be limited in some circumstances to satisfy
certain minimum distribution requirements under the Code.
Under a Qualified Contract, rules specify the form of distribution and start
dates. An excise tax is imposed for failure to comply with the minimum
distribution requirements. This excise tax generally equals 50% of the amount by
which a minimum required distribution exceeds the actual distribution from the
Qualified Plan. In the case of "Individual Retirement Annuities" ("IRAs"),
distributions of minimum amounts (as specified in the tax law) must generally
commence by April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which
the owner attains age 70 1/2. In the case of certain other Qualified Plans,
distributions of such minimum amounts must generally commence by the later of
this date or April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which
the employee retires.
A 10% penalty tax may apply to the taxable amount of payments from Qualified
Contracts. For Individual Retirement Annuities, the penalty tax does not apply
to a payment:
- received after the Owner reaches age 55 and has separated from service,
- received after the Owner reaches age 59 1/2,
- received after the Owner's death or because of the Owner's disability, or
- made as a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least
annually) for the life (or life expectancy) of the Owner or for the joint
lives (or joint life expectancies) of the Owner and designated
beneficiary.
In addition, the penalty tax does not apply to certain distributions used for
qualified first time home purchases or for higher education expenses. Special
conditions must be met to qualify for these exceptions. Owners wishing to take a
distribution for these purposes should consult their tax adviser. Other
exceptions may apply.
Qualified Contracts are amended to conform to plan requirements. However,
Owners, Annuitants, and Beneficiaries are cautioned that the rights of any
person to any benefits under Qualified Plans may be subject to the
33
<PAGE> 37
terms and conditions of the plans themselves, regardless of the terms and
conditions of the Contract. In addition, we are not bound by terms and
conditions of Qualified Plans if they are inconsistent with the Contract.
1. QUALIFIED PLAN TYPES
We issue Contracts for the following types of Qualified Plans.
INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. The Code permits eligible individuals to
contribute to an individual retirement annuity known as an "IRA." IRAs limit the
amounts contributed, the persons eligible and the time when distributions start.
Also, subject to direct rollover and mandatory withholding requirements,
distributions from other types of Qualified Plans may be "rolled over" on a
tax-deferred basis into an IRA. The Contract may not fund an "Education IRA."
IRAs generally may not provide life insurance coverage, but they may provide a
death benefit that equals the greater of the premiums paid and the contract
value. The Contract's death benefit may exceed Purchase Payments or Contract
Value. It is possible that the death benefit could be viewed as violating the
prohibition on investment in life insurance contracts and failing IRA
requirements.
SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSIONS (SEP-IRAS). The Code allows employers to establish
simplified employee pension plans, using the employees' IRAs. Under these plans
the employer may make limited deductible contributions on behalf of the
employees to IRAs. Employers and employees intending to use the Contract in
connection with these plans should seek tax competent advice.
SIMPLE IRAS. The Code permits certain small employers to establish "SIMPLE
retirement accounts," including SIMPLE IRAs, for their employees. Under SIMPLE
IRAs, certain deductible contributions are made by both employees and employers.
SIMPLE IRAs are subject to various requirements, including limits on the amounts
that may be contributed, the persons who may be eligible, and the time when
distributions may commence. As discussed above (see Individual Retirement
Annuities), there is some uncertainty regarding the proper characterization of
the Contract's death benefit for purposes of the tax rules governing IRAs (which
would include SIMPLE IRAs). Employers and employees intending to use the
Contract in connection with such plans should seek competent advice.
ROTH IRAS. The Code permits contributions to an IRA known as a "Roth IRA." Roth
IRAs differ from other IRAs in that:
- Roth IRA contributions are never deductible,
- "qualified distributions" from a Roth IRA are excludable from income,
- different eligibility and mandatory distribution requirements apply,
- a rollover to a Roth IRA must be a "qualified rollover contribution,"
under the Code.
A rollover from an IRA to a Roth IRA is includible in gross income but the 10
percent penalty tax does not apply.
An IRA may be converted into a Roth IRA without taking a distribution. An
individual may convert by notifying the IRA issuer or trustee. The conversion of
an IRA to a Roth IRA is a special type of qualified rollover distribution.
Hence, the IRA participant must be eligible for a qualified rollover
distribution to convert an IRA to a Roth IRA. A conversion typically results in
the inclusion of some or all of the IRA value in gross income. Persons with
adjusted gross incomes in excess of $100,000 or who are married and file a
separate return are not eligible to make a qualified rollover contribution or a
transfer in a taxable year from a non-Roth IRA to a Roth IRA.
Any "qualified distribution" from a Roth IRA is excludible from gross income. A
"qualified distribution" is:
- a payment or distribution
-- made after the Owner attains age 59 1/2,
-- made after the Owner's death,
-- attributable to the Owner being disabled, or
-- made to a qualified first-time homebuyer.
34
<PAGE> 38
- a payment or distribution made in a taxable year that is five years or
more after
-- the first taxable year for which a contribution was made to the
Owner's Roth IRA, or
-- the first taxable year for which rollover was made to the Owner's Roth
IRA. A non-qualified distribution from a Roth IRA is generally taxed
like a distribution from an IRA. Distributions from a Roth IRA need
not commence at age 70 1/2.
TAX-SHELTERED ANNUITIES. Code Section 403(b) permits public school employees and
employees of certain types of charitable, educational and scientific
organizations to have their employers purchase annuity contracts for them and,
subject to certain limitations, to exclude the amount of purchase payments from
taxable gross income. These annuity contracts are commonly referred to as
"tax-sheltered annuities". Purchasers of the Contracts for such purposes should
seek competent advice as to eligibility, limitations on permissible amounts of
purchase payments and other tax consequences associated with the Contracts. In
particular, purchasers should consider that the Contract provides a death
benefit that in certain circumstances may exceed the greater of the Purchase
Payments and the Contract Value. It is possible that such death benefit could be
characterized as an incidental death benefit. If the death benefit were so
characterized, this could result in currently taxable income to purchasers. In
addition, there are limitations on the amount of incidental benefits that may be
provided under a tax-sheltered annuity. Even if the death benefit under the
Contract were characterized as an incidental death benefit, it is unlikely to
violate those limits unless the Contract Owner also purchases a life insurance
contract as part of his or her tax-sheltered annuity plan.
Tax-sheltered annuity contracts must contain restrictions on withdrawals of:
- contributions made pursuant to a salary reduction agreement in years
beginning after December 31, 1988,
- earnings on those contributions, and
- earnings after December 31, 1988 on amounts attributable to salary
reduction contributions held as of December 31, 1998. These amounts can
be paid only if the employee has reached age 59 1/2, separated from
service, died, or becomes disabled, or in the case of hardship. Amounts
permitted to be distributed in the event of hardship are limited to
actual contributions; earnings thereon cannot be distributed on account
of hardship. Amounts subject to the withdrawal restrictions applicable to
section 403(b)(7) custodial accounts may be subject to more stringent
restrictions.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS OF STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS AND TAX-EXEMPT
ORGANIZATIONS. The Code permits employees of state and local governments and
tax-exempt organizations to defer a portion of their compensation without paying
current taxes. The employees must be participants in an eligible deferred
compensation plan. Generally, a Contract purchased by a state or local
government or a tax-exempt organization will not be treated as an annuity
contract for federal income tax purposes. Those who intend to use the Contracts
in connection with such plans should seek competent advice.
2. DIRECT ROLLOVERS
If the Contract is used with a retirement plan that is qualified under sections
401(a), 403(a), or 403(b) of the Code, any "eligible rollover distribution" from
the Contract will be subject to "direct rollover" and mandatory withholding
requirements. An eligible rollover distribution generally is any taxable
distribution from such a qualified retirement plan, excluding certain amounts
such as:
- minimum distributions required under section 401(a)(9) of the Code, and
- certain distributions for life, life expectancy, or for 10 years or more
which are part of a "series of substantially equal periodic payments."
Under these requirements, federal income tax equal to 20% of the eligible
rollover distribution will be withheld from the amount of the distribution.
Unlike withholding on certain other amounts distributed from the Contract,
discussed below, the Owner cannot elect out of withholding with respect to an
eligible rollover distribution. However, this 20% withholding will not apply if,
instead of receiving the eligible rollover distribution, the distributee elects
to have it directly transferred to certain Qualified Plans. Prior to receiving
an eligible rollover distribution, a notice will be provided explaining
generally the direct rollover and mandatory withholding requirements and how to
avoid the 20% withholding by electing a direct rollover.
35
<PAGE> 39
E. FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING
We withhold and send to the U.S. Government a part of the taxable portion of
each distribution unless the payee notifies Us before distribution of an
available election not to have any amounts withheld. In certain circumstances,
We may be required to withhold tax. The withholding rates for the taxable
portion of periodic annuity payments are the same as the withholding rates for
wage payments. In addition, the withholding rate for the taxable portion of
non-periodic payments (including withdrawals prior to the maturity date and
conversions of, or rollovers from, non-Roth IRAs to Roth IRAs) is 10%. The
withholding rate for eligible rollover distributions is 20%.
DISTRIBUTION OF CONTRACTS
The Contracts are sold by licensed insurance agents in those states where the
Contract may be lawfully sold. The agents are also registered representatives of
registered broker-dealers who are members of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. Sales commissions may vary, but are not expected to
exceed 6.25% of Purchase Payments. In addition to commissions, We may pay
additional promotional incentives, in the form of cash or other compensation, to
selling broker-dealers. These incentives may be offered to certain licensed
broker-dealers that sell or are expected to sell certain minimum amounts during
specified time periods. The Contracts are distributed through the principal
underwriter for the Separate Account:
Investors Brokerage Services, Inc. ("IBS")
1 Kemper Drive
Long Grove, Illinois, 60049
IBS is our wholly-owned subsidiary. IBS enters into selling group agreements
with affiliated and unaffiliated broker-dealers. All of the investment options
are not available to all Owners. The investment options are available only under
Contracts that are sold or serviced by broker-dealers having a selling group
agreement with IBS authorizing the sale of Contracts with the investment options
specified in this Prospectus. Other distributors may sell and service contracts
with different investment options.
VOTING RIGHTS
Proxy materials in connection with any Fund shareholder meeting are delivered to
each Owner with Subaccount interests invested in the Fund as of the record date.
Proxy materials include a voting instruction form. We vote all Fund shares
proportionately in accordance with instructions received from Owners. We will
also vote any Fund shares attributed to amounts we have accumulated in the
Subaccounts in the same proportion that Owners vote. A Fund is not required to
hold annual shareholders' meetings. Funds hold special meetings as required or
deemed desirable for such purposes as electing trustees, changing fundamental
policies or approving an investment advisory agreement.
Owners have voting rights in a Portfolio based upon the Owner's proportionate
interest in the corresponding Subaccount as measured by units. Owners have
voting rights before surrender, the Annuity Date or the death of the Annuitant.
Thereafter, the payee entitled to receive Variable Annuity payments has voting
rights. During the Annuity Period, Annuitants' voting rights decrease as Annuity
Units decrease.
REPORTS TO CONTRACT OWNERS AND INQUIRIES
Each calendar quarter We send Owners a statement showing amounts credited to
each Subaccount and to the Fixed Account Option. It also shows the interest
rate(s) that We are crediting upon amounts held in the Fixed Account Option. In
addition, Owners transferring amounts among the investment options or making
additional payments receive written confirmation of these transactions. We will
also send a current statement upon Owner request. Owners are also sent annual
and semi-annual reports for the Portfolios that correspond to the Subaccounts in

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING
Under Our Dollar Cost Averaging program, a predesignated portion of the Kemper
Money Market or Kemper Government Securities Subaccount Value is automatically
transferred monthly for a specified duration to other Subaccounts and the
General Account. The Dollar Cost Averaging program is available only during the
Accumulation Period. An Owner may also elect transfers from the General Account
on a quarterly basis for a minimum duration of one year. An Owner may enroll any
time by completing Our Dollar Cost Averaging form. Transfers are made on the
second Tuesday of the month. We must receive the enrollment form at least five
business days before the transfer date.
The minimum transfer amount is $500 per Subaccount or General Account. The total
Contract Value in the Kemper Money Market or Kemper Government Securities
Subaccount at the time Dollar Cost Averaging is elected must be at least equal
to the amount designated to be transferred on each transfer date times the
duration selected.
Dollar Cost Averaging ends if:
- the number of designated monthly transfers has been completed
- Contract Value in the transferring account is insufficient to complete
the next transfer; the remaining amount is transferred
- We receive the Owner's written termination at least five business days
before the next transfer date
- the Contract is surrendered or annuitized.
If the General Account balance is at least $10,000, an Owner may elect automatic
calendar quarter transfers of interest accrued in the General Account to one or
more of the Subaccounts. An Owner may enroll in this program any time by
completing Our Dollar Cost Averaging form. Transfers are made within five
business days of the end of the calendar quarter. We must receive the enrollment
form at least ten days before the end of the calendar quarter.
Dollar Cost Averaging is not available during the Annuity Period.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
We offer a Systematic Withdrawal Plan ("SWP") allowing Owners to preauthorize
periodic withdrawals during the Accumulation Period. Owners instruct Us to
withdraw selected amounts from the General Account or from any of the
Subaccounts on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. The SWP is
available to Owners who request a minimum $100 periodic payment. If the amounts
distributed under the SWP exceed the free withdrawal amount, the Withdrawal
Charge is applied on any amounts exceeding the free withdrawal amount.
WITHDRAWALS TAKEN UNDER THE SWP MAY BE SUBJECT TO THE 10% TAX PENALTY ON EARLY
WITHDRAWALS AND TO INCOME TAXES AND WITHHOLDING. Owners interested in SWP may
obtain an application and information concerning this program and its
restrictions from Us or their agent. We give thirty days' notice if We amend the
SWP. The SWP may be terminated at any time by the Owner or Us.
PROVISIONS OF PRIOR CONTRACTS
Certain provisions of the Contract became effective upon the later of June 1,
1993 or the date of state approval. If the provisions are not yet approved in
your state, you will receive an earlier version of the Contract and the
following provisions will apply:
FIXED ACCUMULATION OPTIONS. Fixed accumulations and benefits under the prior
contracts are provided in two Fixed Accumulation Options of the General Account.
Any portion of the purchase payment allocated to a Fixed Accumulation Option is
credited with interest daily at a rate declared by Us in Our sole discretion,
but not less than 4%.
TRANSFER DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD. During the Accumulation Period, an Owner
may transfer the General Account II Contract value minus Debt twice during the
Contract Year to one or more Subaccounts or to General Account I in the thirty
day period following the anniversary of a Contract year or the thirty day period
following the date of the confirmation statement provided for the period through
the anniversary date, if later.
37
<PAGE> 41
WITHDRAWALS DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD. The Owner may request a partial
withdrawal subject to the following conditions:
- The amount requested must be at least $500 or the Owner's entire interest
in the Subaccount, General Account I or General Account II from which
withdrawal is requested.
- The Owner's Contract interest in the Subaccount, General Account I or
General Account II from which the withdrawal is requested must be at
least $500 after the withdrawal is completed.
LOANS. For non-ERISA loans, the loan interest rate is 6%. While the loan is
outstanding, the portion of the General Account Contract Value that equals the
debt will earn interest at a rate 2% less than loan rate.
RECORDS MAINTENANCE CHARGE. We will assess an annual Records Maintenance Charge
of $25 during the Accumulation period against each contract which has
participated in one or more of the Subaccounts during the calendar year whether
or not any purchase payments have been made during the year. The imposition of
the Records Maintenance Charge will be made on December 31st of each year.
ANNUITY UNIT VALUE AND FIRST PERIODIC PAYMENT. For purposes of determining the
value of an Annuity Unit and the amount of the first annuity payment, the
assumed interest rate is 4%, which is also reflected in the annuity tables
contained in the Contracts.
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 services
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.
We have taken substantial steps over the last several years to ensure that Our
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, We replaced Our investment accounting system, and, in 1997, We replaced
Our general ledger and accounts payable system. We have 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 Our systems in compliance with the year 2000 amounted to $1.3 million
in 1998. We anticipate that it will cost an additional $662 thousand to bring
all remaining systems into compliance.
Our policy administration systems have been completely renovated to be year 2000
compliant and are currently running in a test environment. Approximately 75
percent of Our ancillary systems confirmed to be year 2000 compliant were in
production at December 31, 1998. We anticipate that all such 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. Our 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.
38
<PAGE> 42
We have also taken steps requiring all other entities with which We
electronically interact, including suppliers and other financial services
institutions, to attest to Us in writing that their systems are year 2000
compliant.
If We do not successfully address Our year 2000 issues, We could face material
adverse consequences from lawsuits, lost business, erroneous results and
substantial operating problems after January 1, 2000. Although We fully expect
to be year 2000 compliant by the close of 1999, We are 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.

APPENDIX
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY DEFERRED FIXED AND
VARIABLE ANNUITY IRA, ROTH IRA AND SIMPLE IRA DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
This Disclosure Statement describes the statutory and regulatory provisions
applicable to the operation of Individual Retirement Annuities (IRAs), Roth
Individual Retirement Annuities (Roth IRAs) and Simple Individual Retirement
Annuities (SIMPLE IRAs). Internal Revenue Service regulations require that this
be given to each person desiring to establish an IRA, Roth IRA or a SIMPLE IRA.
Further information can be obtained from Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company
and from any district office of the Internal Revenue Service.
A. REVOCATION
Within 7 days of the date you signed your enrollment application, you may revoke
the Contract and receive back 100% of your money. To do so, write Kemper
Investors Life Insurance Company, 1 Kemper Drive, Long Grove, Illinois 60049, or
call (888) 477-9700.
B. STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
This Contract is intended to meet the requirements of Section 408(b) of the
Internal Revenue Code (Code), Section 408A of the Code for use as a Roth IRA, or
of Section 408(p) of the Code for use as a SIMPLE IRA, whichever is applicable.
The Contract has not been approved as to form for use as an IRA, Roth IRA or a
SIMPLE IRA by the Internal Revenue Service. Such approval by the Internal
Revenue Service is a determination only as to form of the Contract, and does not
represent a determination on the merits of the Contract.
1. The amount in your IRA, Roth IRA, and SIMPLE IRA, whichever is applicable,
must be fully vested at all times and the entire interest of the owner must be
nonforfeitable.
2. The Contract must be nontransferable by the owner.
3. The Contract must have flexible premiums.
4. For IRAs and SIMPLE IRAs, you must start receiving distributions on or before
April 1 of the year following the year in which you reach age 70 1/2 (the
required beginning date)(see "Required Distributions"). However, section
401(a)(9)(A) of the Code (relating to minimum distributions required to commence
at age 70 1/2), and the incidental death benefit requirements of section 401(a)
of the Code, do not apply to Roth IRAs.
If you die before your entire interest in your Contract is distributed, unless
otherwise permitted under applicable law, any remaining interest in the Contract
must be distributed to your beneficiary by December 31 of the calendar year
containing the fifth anniversary of your death; except that: (1) if the interest
is payable to an individual who is your designated beneficiary (within the
meaning of section 401(a)(9) of the Code), the designated beneficiary may elect
to receive the entire interest over his or her life, or over a period certain
not extending beyond his or her life expectancy, commencing on or before
December 31 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in
which you die; and (2) if the designated beneficiary is your spouse, the
Contract will be treated as his or her own IRA, or, where applicable, Roth IRA.
5. Except in the case of a rollover contribution or a direct transfer (see
"Rollovers and Direct Transfers"), or a contribution made in accordance with the
terms of a Simplified Employee Pension (SEP), (1) all contributions to an IRA,
including a Roth IRA, must be cash contributions which do not exceed $2,000 for
any taxable year, and (2) all contributions to a SIMPLE IRA must be cash
contributions, including matching or nonelective employer contributions (see
"SIMPLE IRAs"), which do not exceed $6,000 for any year (as adjusted for
inflation).
6. The Contract must be for the exclusive benefit of you and your beneficiaries.
C. ROLLOVERS AND DIRECT TRANSFERS FOR IRAS AND SIMPLE IRAS
1. A rollover is a tax-free transfer from one retirement program to another that
you cannot deduct on your tax return. There are two kinds of tax-free rollover
payments under an IRA. In one, you transfer amounts from one IRA to another.
With the other, you transfer amounts from a qualified employee benefit plan or
tax-sheltered annuity to an IRA. Tax-free rollovers can be made from a SIMPLE
IRA to another SIMPLE IRA or to a SIMPLE Individual Retirement Account under
section 408(p) of the Code. An individual can make a tax-free rollover to an IRA
from a SIMPLE IRA after a two-year period has expired since the individual first
participated in a SIMPLE plan.
40
<PAGE> 44
2. You must complete the transfer by the 60th day after the day you receive the
distribution from your IRA or other qualified employee benefit plan or SIMPLE
IRA.
3. A rollover distribution may be made to you only once a year. The one-year
period begins on the date you receive the rollover distribution, not on the date
you roll it over (reinvest it).
4. A direct transfer to an IRA of funds in an IRA from one trustee or insurance
company to another is not a rollover. It is a transfer that is not affected by
the one-year waiting period.
5. All or a part of the premium for this Contract used as an IRA may be paid
from a rollover from an IRA, qualified pension or profit-sharing plan or
tax-sheltered annuity, or from a direct transfer from another IRA. All or part
of the premium for this Contract used as a SIMPLE IRA may be paid from a
rollover from a SIMPLE IRA or SIMPLE Individual Retirement Account or, to the
extent permitted by law, from a direct transfer from a SIMPLE IRA or SIMPLE
Individual Retirement Account.
6. Beginning January 1, 1993, a distribution that is eligible for rollover
treatment from a qualified employee benefit plan or tax-sheltered annuity will
be subject to twenty percent (20%) withholding by the Internal Revenue Service
even if you roll the distribution over within the 60-day rollover period. One
way to avoid this withholding is to make the distribution as a direct transfer
to the IRA trustee or insurance company.
D. CONTRIBUTION LIMITS AND ALLOWANCE OF DEDUCTION FOR IRAS
1. In general, the amount you can contribute each year to an IRA is the lesser
of $2,000 or your taxable compensation for the year. If you have more than one
IRA, the limit applies to the total contributions made to your own IRAs for the
year. Generally, if you work the amount that you earn is compensation. Wages,
salaries, tips, professional fees, bonuses and other amounts you receive for
providing personal services are compensation. If you own and operate your own
business as a sole proprietor, your net earnings reduced by your deductible
contributions on your behalf to self-employed retirement plans is compensation.
If you are an active partner in a partnership and provide services to the
partnership, your share of partnership income reduced by deductible
contributions made on your behalf to qualified retirement plans is compensation.
All taxable alimony and separate maintenance payments received under a decree of
divorce or separate maintenance is compensation.
2. Beginning in 1997, in the case of a married couple filing a joint return, up
to $2,000 can be contributed to each spouse's IRA, even if one spouse has little
or no compensation. This means that the total combined contributions that can be
made to both IRAs can be as much as $4,000 for the year. Previously, if one
spouse had no compensation or elected to be treated as having no compensation,
the total combined contributions to both IRAs could no be more than $2,250.
3. Also beginning in 1997, in the case of a married couple with unequal
compensation who file a joint return, the limit on the deductible contributions
to the IRA of the spouse with less compensation is the smaller of:
a. $2,000, or
b. The total compensation of both spouses, reduced by any deduction allowed
for contributions to IRAs of the spouse with more compensation.
The deduction for contributions to both spouses' IRAs may be further limited if
either spouse is covered by an employer retirement plan.
4. Beginning in 1998, even if your spouse is covered by an employer retirement
plan, you may be able to deduct your contributions to an IRA if you are not
covered by an employer plan. The deduction is limited to $2,000 and it must be
reduced if your adjusted gross income on a joint return is more than $150,000
but less than $160,000. Your deduction is eliminated if your income on a joint
return is $160,000 or more.
5. Contributions to your IRA can be made at any time. If you make the
contribution between January 1 and April 15, however, you may elect to treat the
contribution as made either in that year or in the preceding year. You may file
a tax return claiming a deduction for your IRA contribution before the
contribution is actually made. You must, however, make the contribution by the
due date of your return not including extensions.
6. You cannot make a contribution other than a rollover contribution to your IRA
for the year in which you reach age 70 1/2 or thereafter.
41
<PAGE> 45
E. SEP-IRA'S
1. The maximum deductible contribution for a Simplified Employee Pension (SEP)
IRA is the lesser of $30,000 or 15% of compensation.
2. A SEP must be established and maintained by an employer (corporation,
partnership, sole proprietor). Information about the Kemper SEP is available
upon request.
F. SIMPLE IRAS
1. A SIMPLE IRA must be established with your employer using a qualified salary
reduction agreement.
2. You may elect to have your employer contribute to your SIMPLE IRA, under a
qualified salary reduction agreement, an amount (expressed as a percentage of
your compensation) not to exceed $6,000 (as adjusted for inflation) for the
year. In addition to these employee elective contributions, your employer is
required to make each year either (1) a matching contribution equal to up to 3
percent, and not less than 1 percent, of your SIMPLE IRA contribution for the
year, or (2) a nonelective contribution equal to 2 percent of your compensation
for the year (up to $150,000 of compensation, as adjusted for inflation). No
other contributions may be made to a SIMPLE IRA.
3. Employee elective contributions and employer contributions (i.e., matching
contributions and nonelective contributions) to your SIMPLE IRA are excluded
from your gross income.
4. To the extent an individual with a SIMPLE IRA is no longer participating in a
SIMPLE plan (e.g., the individual has terminated employment), and two years has
passed since the individual first participated in the plan, the individual may
treat the SIMPLE IRA as an IRA.
G. TAX STATUS OF THE CONTRACT AND DISTRIBUTIONS FOR IRAS AND SIMPLE IRAS
1. Earnings of your IRA annuity contract are not taxed until they are
distributed to you.
2. In general, taxable distributions are included in your gross income in the
year you receive them.
3. Distributions under your IRA are non-taxable to the extent they represent a
return of non-deductible contributions (if any). The non-taxable percentage of a
distribution is determined by dividing your total undistributed, non-deductible
IRA contributions by the value of all your IRAs (including SEPs and rollovers).
4. You cannot choose the special five-year or ten-year averaging that may apply
to lump sum distributions from qualified employer plans.
H. REQUIRED DISTRIBUTIONS FOR IRAS AND SIMPLE IRAS
You must start receiving minimum distributions required under the Contract and
Section 401(a)(9) of the Code from your IRA and SIMPLE IRA starting with the
year you reach age 70 1/2 (your 70 1/2 year). Ordinarily, the required minimum
distribution for a particular year must be received by December 31 of that year.
However, you may delay the required minimum distribution for the year you reach
age 70 1/2 until April 1 of the following year (i.e., the required beginning
date).
Annuity payments which begin by April 1 of the year following your 70 1/2 year
satisfy the minimum distribution requirement if they provide for non-increasing
payments over the life or the lives of you and your spouse, provided that, if
installments are guaranteed, the guaranty period does not exceed the lesser of
20 years or the applicable life expectancy.
The applicable life expectancy is your remaining life expectancy or the
remaining joint life and last survivor expectancy of you and your designated
beneficiary. Life expectancies are determined using the expected return multiple
tables shown in IRS Publication 590 "Individual Retirement Arrangements." To
obtain a free copy of IRS Publication 590 and other IRS forms, phone the IRS
toll free at 1-800-729-3676 or write the IRS Forms Distribution Center for your
area as shown in your income tax return instructions.
If you have more than one IRA, you must determine the required minimum
distribution separately for each IRA; however, you can take the actual
distributions of these amounts from any one or more of your IRAs.
If the actual distribution from your Contract is less than the minimum amount
that should be distributed in accordance with the minimum distribution
requirements mentioned above, the difference generally is an excess
42
<PAGE> 46
accumulation. There is a 50% excise tax on any excess accumulations. If the
excess accumulation is due to reasonable error, and you have taken (or are
taking) steps to remedy the insufficient distribution, you can request that this
50% excise tax be excused by filing with your tax return an IRS Form 5329,
together with a letter of explanation and the excise tax payment.
I. ROTH IRAs
1. If your contract is a special type of individual retirement plan known as a
Roth IRA, it will be administered in accordance with the requirements of section
408A of the Code. Roth IRAs are treated the same as other IRAs, except as
described here.
2. The IRS is not presently accepting submissions for opinion letters approving
annuities as Roth IRAs, but will issue in the future procedures for requesting
such opinion letters. We will apply for approval as soon as possible after the
IRS issues its procedures on this matter. Such approval will be a determination
only as to the form of the annuity, and will not represent a determination of
the merits of the annuity.
3. If your Contract is a Roth IRA, we will send you a Roth IRA endorsement to be
attached to, and to amend, your contract after we obtain approval of the
endorsement from the IRS and your state insurance department. The Company
reserves the right to amend the contract as necessary or advisable from time to
time to comply with future changes in the Internal Revenue Code, regulations or
other requirements imposed by the IRS to obtain or maintain its approval of the
annuity as a Roth IRA.
4. Earnings in your Roth IRA are not taxed until they are distributed to you,
and will not be taxed if they are paid as a "qualified distribution," as
described to you in section L, below.
J. ELIGIBILITY AND CONTRIBUTIONS FOR ROTH IRAs
1. Generally, you are eligible to establish or make a contribution to your Roth
IRA on or after January 1, 1998, only if you meet certain income limits. No
deduction is allowed for contributions to your Roth IRA. Contributions to your
Roth IRA may be made even after you attain age 70 1/2.
2. The aggregate amount of contributions for any taxable year to all IRAs,
including all Roth IRAs, maintained for your benefit (the "contribution limit")
generally is the lesser of $2,000 and 100% of your compensation for the taxable
year. However, if you file a joint return and receive less compensation for the
taxable year than your spouse, the contribution limit for the taxable year is
the lesser of $2,000 and the sum of (1) your compensation for the taxable year,
and (2) your spouse's compensation for the taxable year reduced by any
deductible contributions to an IRA of your spouse, and by any contributions to a
Roth IRA for your spouse, for the taxable year.
The contribution limit for any taxable year is reduced (but not below zero) by
the amount which bears the same ratio to such amount as:
(a) the excess of (i) your adjusted gross income for the taxable year, over
(ii) the "applicable dollar amount," bears to
(b) $15,000 (or $10,000 if you are married).
For this purpose, "adjusted gross income" is determined under the Code and (1)
excludes any amount included in gross income as a result of any rollover from,
transfer from, or conversion of an IRA to a Roth IRA, and (2) is reduced by any
deductible IRA contribution. In addition, the "applicable dollar amount" is
equal to $150,000 for a married individual filing a joint return, $0 for a
married individual filing a separate return, and $95,000 for any other
individual.
A "qualified rollover contribution" (discussed in section K, below), and a
non-taxable transfer from another Roth IRA, are not taken into account for
purposes of determining the contribution limit.
K. ROLLOVERS, TRANSFERS AND CONVERSIONS TO ROTH IRAs
1. Rollovers And Transfers--A rollover may be made to a Roth IRA only if it is a
"qualified rollover contribution." A "qualified rollover contribution" is a
rollover to a Roth IRA from another Roth IRA or from an IRA, but only if such
rollover contribution also meets the rollover requirements for IRAs under
section 408(d)(3). In addition, a transfer may be made to a Roth IRA directly
from another Roth IRA or from an IRA.
43
<PAGE> 47
You may not make a qualified rollover contribution or transfer in a taxable year
from an IRA to a Roth IRA if (a) your adjusted gross income for the taxable year
exceeds $100,000 or (b) you are married and file a separate return.
The rollover requirements of section 408(d)(3) are complex and should be
carefully considered before you make a rollover. One of the requirements is that
the amount received be paid into another IRA (or Roth IRA) within 60 days after
receipt of the distribution. In addition, a rollover contribution from a Roth
IRA may be made by you only once a year. The one-year period begins on the date
you receive the Roth IRA distribution, not on the date you roll it over
(reinvest it) into another Roth IRA. If you withdraw assets from a Roth IRA, you
may roll over part of the withdrawal tax free into another Roth IRA and keep the
rest of it. A portion of the amount you keep may be included in your gross
income.
2. Taxation of Rollovers And Transfers to Roth IRAs--A qualified rollover
contribution or transfer from a Roth IRA maintained for your benefit to another
Roth IRA maintained for your benefit which meets the rollover requirements for
IRAs under section 408(d)(3) is tax-free.
In the case of a qualified rollover contribution or a transfer from an IRA
maintained for your benefit to a Roth IRA maintained for your benefit, any
portion of the amount rolled over or transferred which would be includible in
your gross income were it not part of a qualified rollover contribution or a
nontaxable transfer will be includible in your gross income. However, section
72(t) of the Code (relating to the 10 percent penalty tax on premature
distributions) will not apply. If such a rollover or transfer occurred before
January 1, 1999, any portion of the amount rolled over or transferred which is
required to be included in gross income will be so included ratably over the
4-taxable year period beginning with the taxable year in which the rollover or
transfer is made.
3. Transfers of Excess IRA Contributions to Roth IRAs--If, before the due date
of your federal income tax return for any taxable year (not including
extensions), you transfer, from an IRA, contributions for such taxable year (and
earnings thereon) to a Roth IRA, such amounts will not be includible in gross
income to the extent that no deduction was allowed with respect to such amount.
4. Taxation of Conversions of IRAs to Roth IRAs--All or part of amounts in an
IRA maintained for your benefit may be converted into a Roth IRA maintained for
your benefit. The conversion of an IRA to a Roth IRA is treated as special type
of qualified rollover contribution. Hence, you must be eligible to make a
qualified rollover contribution in order to convert an IRA to a Roth IRA. A
conversion typically will result in the inclusion of some or all of your IRA's
value in gross income, as described above.
A conversion of an IRA to a Roth IRA can be made without taking an actual
distribution from your IRA. For example, an individual may make a conversion by
notifying the IRA issuer or trustee, whichever is applicable.
UNDER SOME CIRCUMSTANCES, IT MIGHT NOT BE ADVISABLE TO ROLLOVER, TRANSFER, OR
CONVERT ALL OR PART OF AN IRA TO A ROTH IRA. WHETHER YOU SHOULD DO SO WILL
DEPEND ON YOUR PARTICULAR FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED
TO, SUCH FACTORS AS WHETHER YOU QUALIFY TO MAKE SUCH A ROLLOVER, TRANSFER, OR
CONVERSION, YOUR FINANCIAL SITUATION, AGE, CURRENT AND FUTURE INCOME NEEDS,
YEARS TO RETIREMENT, CURRENT AND FUTURE TAX RATES, YOUR ABILITY AND DESIRE TO
PAY CURRENT INCOME TAXES WITH RESPECT TO AMOUNTS ROLLED OVER, TRANSFERRED, OR
CONVERTED, AND WHETHER SUCH TAXES MIGHT NEED TO BE PAID WITH WITHDRAWALS FROM
YOUR ROTH IRA (SEE DISCUSSION BELOW OF "NONQUALIFIED DISTRIBUTIONS"). YOU SHOULD
CONSULT A QUALIFIED TAX ADVISER BEFORE ROLLING OVER, TRANSFERRING, OR CONVERTING
ALL OR PART OF AN IRA TO A ROTH IRA.
5. Separate Roth IRAs--Due to the complexity of, and proposed changes to, the
tax law, it may be advantageous to maintain amounts rolled over, transferred, or
converted from an IRA in separate Roth IRAs from those containing regular Roth
IRA contributions. For the same reason, you should consider maintaining a
separate Roth IRA for each amount rolled over, transferred, or converted from an
IRA. These considerations should be balanced against the additional costs you
may incur from maintaining multiple Roth IRAs. You should consult your tax
adviser if you intend to contribute rollover, transfer, or conversion amounts to
your Policy, or if you intend to roll over or transfer amounts from your Policy
to another Roth IRA maintained for your benefit.
L. INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF ROTH IRAS
1. Qualified Distributions--Any "qualified distribution" from a Roth IRA is
excludible from gross income. A "qualified distribution" is a payment or
distribution which satisfies two requirements. First, the payment or
distribution must be (a) made after you attain 59 1/2, (b) made after your
death, (c) attributable to your being
44
<PAGE> 48
disabled, or (d) a "qualified special purpose distribution" (I.E., a qualified
first-time homebuyer distribution under the Code). Second, the payment or
distribution must be made in a taxable year that is at least five years after
(1) the first taxable year for which a contribution was made to any Roth IRA
established for you, or (2) in the case of a rollover from, or a conversion of,
an IRA to a Roth IRA, the taxable year in which the rollover or conversion was
made if the payment or distribution is allocable (as determined in the manner
set forth in guidance issued by the IRS) to the rollover contribution or
conversion (or to income allocable thereto).
2. Nonqualified Distributions--A distribution from a Roth IRA which is not a
qualified distribution is taxed under section 72 (relating to annuities), except
that such distribution is treated as made first from contributions to the Roth
IRA to the extent that such distribution, when added to all previous
distributions from the Roth IRA, does not exceed the aggregate amount of
contributions to the Roth IRA. For purposes of determining the amount taxed, (a)
all Roth IRAs established for you will be treated as one contract, (b) all
distributions during any taxable year from Roth IRAs established for you will be
treated as one distribution, and (c) the value of the contract, income on the
contract, and investment in the contract, if applicable, will be computed as of
the close of the calendar year in which the taxable year begins.
An additional tax of 10% is imposed on nonqualified distributions (including
amounts deemed distributed as the result of a prohibited loan or use of your
Roth IRA as security for a loan) made before the benefited individual has
attained age 59 1/2, unless one of the exceptions discussed in Section N
applies.
M. TAX ON EXCESS CONTRIBUTIONS
1. You must pay a 6% excise tax each year on excess contributions that remain in
your Contract. Generally, an excess contribution is the amount contributed to
your Contract that is more than you can contribute. The excess is taxed for the
year of the excess contribution and for each year after that until you correct
it.
2. You will not have to pay the 6% excise tax if you withdraw the excess amount
by the date your tax return is due including extensions for the year of the
contribution. You do not have to include in your gross income an excess
contribution that you withdraw from your Contract before your tax return is due
if the income earned on the excess was also withdrawn and no deduction was
allowed for the excess contribution. You must include in your gross income the
income earned on the excess contribution.
N. TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS
There is an additional tax on premature distributions from your IRA, Roth IRA,
or SIMPLE IRA, equal to 10% of the amount of the premature distribution that you
must include in your gross income. For premature distributions from a SIMPLE IRA
made within the first 2 years you participate in a SIMPLE plan, the additional
tax is equal to 25% of the amount of the premature distribution that must be
included in gross income. Premature distributions are generally amounts you
withdraw before you are age 59 1/2. However, the tax on premature distributions
does not apply:
1. To amounts that are rolled over tax free;
2. To a distribution which is made on or after your death, or on account of you
being disabled within the meaning of section 72(m)(7) of the Code;
3. To a distribution which is part of a series of substantially equal periodic
payments (made at least annually) over your life or your life expectancy or the
joint life or joint life expectancy of you and your beneficiary; or
4. To a distribution which is used for qualified first-time homebuyer expenses,
qualified higher education expenses, certain medical expenses, or by an
unemployed individual to pay health insurance premiums.
O. EXCISE TAX REPORTING
Use Form 5329, Additional Taxes Attributable to Qualified Retirement Plans
(Including IRAs), Annuities, and Modified Endowment Contracts, to report the
excise taxes on excess contributions, premature distributions, and excess
accumulations. If you do not owe any IRA, SIMPLE IRA or Roth IRA excise taxes,
you do not need Form 5329. Further information can be obtained from any district
office of the Internal Revenue Service.

<PAGE> 49
P. BORROWING
If you borrow money against your Contract or use it as security for a loan, the
Contract will lose its classification as an IRA, Roth IRA, or SIMPLE IRA,
whichever is applicable, and you must include in gross income the fair market
value of the Contract as of the first day of your tax year. In addition, you may
be subject to the tax on premature distributions described above. (Note: This
Contract does not allow borrowings against it, nor may it be assigned or pledged
as collateral for a loan.)
Q. REPORTING
We will provide you with any reports required by the Internal Revenue Service.
R. ESTATE TAX
Generally, the value of your IRA, including your Roth IRA, is included in your
gross estate for federal estate tax purposes.
S. FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

SERVICES TO THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company ("KILICO") maintains the books and
records of the KILICO Variable Annuity Separate Account (the "Separate
Account"). KILICO holds the assets of the Separate Account. The assets are kept
segregated and held separate and apart from the general funds of KILICO. KILICO
maintains records of all purchases and redemptions of shares of each Fund by
each of the Subaccounts. All expenses incurred in the operations of the Separate
Account, except the charge for mortality and expense risk and administrative
expenses, and records maintenance charge (as described in the Prospectus) are
borne by KILICO.
The independent auditors for the Separate Account are PricewaterhouseCoopers
LLP, Chicago, Illinois, for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP performed the annual audit of the financial
statements of the Separate Account and KILICO for the years ended December 31,
1997 and 1998.
The Contracts are sold by licensed insurance agents, where the Contracts may be
lawfully sold, who are registered representatives of broker-dealers which are
registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are members of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. The Contracts are distributed
through the principal underwriter for the Separate Account, Investors Brokerage
Services, Inc. ("IBS"), a wholly owned subsidiary of KILICO, which enters into
selling group agreements with affiliated and unaffiliated broker-dealers.
Subject to the provisions of the Contracts, units of the Subaccounts under the
Contract are offered on a continuous basis.
KILICO pays commissions to the seller which may vary but are not anticipated to
exceed in the aggregate an amount equal to six percent (6%) of Purchase
Payments. During 1998, 1997 and 1996 KILICO incurred gross commissions payable
of approximately $14,785,000, $14,741,000 and $9,049,000, respectively, to
licensed insurance agents.
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION OF SUBACCOUNTS
As described in the prospectus, a Subaccount's historical performance may be
shown in the form of standardized "average annual total return" and
nonstandardized "total return" calculations in the case of all Subaccounts;
"yield" information may be provided in the case of the Kemper High Yield
Subaccount, Kemper Investment Grade Bond Subaccount, the Kemper Government
Securities Subaccount and the Scudder VLIF Bond Subaccount; and "yield" and
"effective yield" information may be provided in the case of the Kemper Money
Market Subaccount. These various measures of performance are described below.
A Subaccount's standardized average annual total return quotation is computed in
accordance with a standard method prescribed by rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The standardized average annual total return for a
Subaccount for a specific period is found by first taking a hypothetical $1,000
investment in each of the Subaccount's units on the first day of the period at
the maximum offering price, which is the Accumulation Unit value per unit
("initial investment") and computing the ending redeemable value ("redeemable
value") of that investment at the end of the period. The redeemable value
reflects the effect of the applicable Withdrawal Charge that may be imposed at
the end of the period as well as all other recurring charges and fees applicable
under the Contract to all Contract Owner accounts. Premium taxes are not
included in the term charges. The redeemable value is then divided by the
initial investment and this quotient is taken to the Nth root (N represents the
number of years in the period) and 1 is subtracted from the result, which is
then expressed as a percentage. Average annual total return figures are
annualized and, therefore, represent the average annual percentage change in the
value of a Subaccount over the applicable period.
No standard formula has been prescribed for calculating nonstandardized total
return performance. Nonstandardized total return performance for a specific
period is calculated by first taking an investment (assumed to be $10,000 below)
in each Subaccount's units on the first day of the period at the maximum
offering price, which is the Accumulation Unit Value per unit ("initial
investment") and computing the ending value ("ending value") of that investment
at the end of the period. The ending value does not include the effect of the
applicable Withdrawal Charge that may be imposed at the end of the period, and
thus may be higher than if such charge were deducted. Premium taxes are not
included in the term charges. The nonstandardized 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. An assumed investment of $10,000 was chosen because that
approximates the size of a typical account. The account size used affects the
performance figure because the Records Maintenance Charge is a fixed per account
charge. Both annualized
B-1
<PAGE> 54
and nonannualized (cumulative) nonstandardized total return figures may be
provided. Annualized nonstandardized total return figures represent the average
annual percentage change in the value of a Subaccount over the applicable period
while nonannualized (cumulative) figures represent the actual percentage change
over the applicable period.
Standardized average annual total return quotations will be current to the last
day of the calendar quarter and nonstandardized total return quotations will be
current to the last day of the calendar month preceding the date on which an
advertisement is submitted for publication. Standardized average annual total
return will cover periods of one, three, five and ten years, if applicable, and
a period covering the time the underlying Portfolio has been held in a
Subaccount (life of Subaccount). Nonstandardized total return will cover periods
of one, three, five and ten years, if applicable, and a period covering the time
the underlying Portfolio held in a Subaccount has been in existence (life of
Portfolio). For those underlying Portfolios which have not been held as
Subaccounts within the Separate Account for one of the quoted periods, the
nonstandardized total return quotations will show the investment performance
such underlying Portfolios would have achieved (reduced by the applicable
charges) had they been held as Subaccounts within the Separate Account for the
period quoted.
Performance information will be shown for periods from April 6, 1982 (inception)
for the Kemper Money Market Subaccount, Kemper Total Return Subaccount and
Kemper High Yield Subaccount, and for periods from December 9, 1983 (inception)
for the Kemper Growth Subaccount. This performance information is stated to
reflect that the Separate Account was reorganized on November 3, 1989 as a unit
investment trust with Subaccounts investing in corresponding Portfolios of the
Fund. In addition, on that date the Kemper Government Securities Subaccount was
added to the Separate Account to invest in the Fund's Government Securities
Portfolio. For the Kemper Government Securities Subaccount, performance figures
will reflect investment experience as if the Kemper Government Securities
Subaccount had been available under the Contracts since September 3, 1987, the
inception date of the Kemper Government Securities Portfolio.
The yield for the Kemper High Yield Subaccount, the Kemper Investment Grade Bond
Subaccount, the Kemper Government Securities Subaccount, and the Scudder VLIF
Bond Subaccount is computed in accordance with a standard method prescribed by
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The yields for the Kemper High
Yield Subaccount, the Kemper Government Securities Subaccount and the Kemper
Investment Grade Bond Subaccount, based upon the one month period ended March
31, 1999 were 8.33%, 4.07%, and 3.40%, respectively. The yield quotation is
computed by dividing the net investment income per unit earned during the
specified one month or 30-day period by the accumulation unit values on the last
day of the period, according to the following formula that assumes a semi-annual
reinvestment of income:
<TABLE>
<S> <C> <C>
a - b
-------
YIELD = 2[( +1)(6) - 1
cd
</TABLE>
a = net dividends and interest earned during the period by the Fund attributable
to the Subaccount
b = expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements)
c = the average daily number of Accumulation Units outstanding during the period
d = the Accumulation Unit value per unit on the last day of the period
The yield of each Subaccount reflects the deduction of all recurring fees and
charges applicable to each Subaccount, but does not reflect the deduction of
withdrawal charges or premium taxes.
The Kemper Money Market Subaccount's yield is computed in accordance with a
standard method prescribed by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Under that method, the current yield quotation is based on a seven-day period
and computed as follows: the net change in the Accumulation Unit Value during
the period is divided by the Accumulation Unit Value at the beginning of the
period ("base period return") and the result is divided by 7 and multiplied by
365 and the current yield figure carried to the nearest one-hundredth of one
percent. Realized capital gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or
depreciation of the Account's portfolio are not included in the calculation. The
Kemper Money Market Subaccount's yield for the seven-day period ended March 31,
1999 was 3.04% and average portfolio maturity was 14 days.
The Kemper Money Market Subaccount's effective yield is determined by taking the
base period return (computed as described above) and calculating the effect of
assumed compounding. The formula for the effective yield is: (base period return
+1) (365) / (7) - 1. The Kemper Money Market Subaccount's effective yield for
the seven day period ended March 31, 1999 was 3.09%.
B-2
<PAGE> 55
In computing yield, the Separate Account follows certain standard accounting
practices specified by Securities and Exchange Commission rules. These practices
are not necessarily consistent with the accounting practices that the Separate
Account uses in the preparation of its annual and semi-annual financial
statements.
A Subaccount's performance quotations are based upon historical earnings and are
not necessarily representative of future performance. The Subaccount's units are
sold at Accumulation Unit value. Performance figures and Accumulation Unit value
will fluctuate. Factors affecting a Subaccount's performance include general
market conditions, operating expenses and investment management. Units of a
Subaccount are redeemable at Accumulation Unit value, which may be more or less
than original cost. The performance figures include the deduction of all
expenses and fees, including a prorated portion of the Records Maintenance
Charge. Redemptions within the first six years after purchase may be subject to
a Withdrawal Charge that ranges from 6% the first year to 0% after six years.
Yield, effective yield and nonstandardized total return do not reflect the
effect of the Withdrawal Charge or premium taxes that may be imposed upon the
redemption of units. Standardized average annual total return reflects the
effect of the applicable Withdrawal Charge (but not premium tax) that may be
imposed at the end of the period in question.
The Subaccounts may also provide comparative information on an annualized or
nonannualized (cumulative) basis with regard to various indexes, including the
Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index, the
Consumer Price Index, the CDA Certificate of Deposit Index, the Salomon Brothers
High Grade Corporate Bond Index, the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Bond
Index, the Merrill Lynch Government/Corporate Master Index, the Lehman Brothers
Long Government/Corporate Bond Index, the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate
1-3 Year Bond Index, the Standard & Poor's Midcap 400 Index, the NASDAQ
Composite Index, the Russell 2000 Index and the Morgan Stanley Capital
International Europe, Australia, Far East Index. In addition, the Subaccounts
may provide performance analysis rankings of Lipper Analytical Services, Inc.,
the VARDS Report, MORNINGSTAR, INC., Ibbotson Associates or Micropal. Please
note the differences and similarities between the investments which a Subaccount
may purchase and the investments measured by the indexes which are described
below. In particular, it should be noted that certificates of deposit may offer
fixed or variable yields and principal is guaranteed and may be insured. The
units of the Subaccounts are not insured. Also, the value of the Subaccounts
will fluctuate. From time to time, the Separate Account may quote information
from publications such as MORNINGSTAR, INC., THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, MONEY
MAGAZINE, FORBES, BARRON'S, FORTUNE, THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE, USA TODAY,
INSTITUTIONAL INVESTOR, NATIONAL UNDERWRITER, SELLING LIFE INSURANCE, BROKER
WORLD, REGISTERED REPRESENTATIVE, INVESTMENT ADVISER and VARDS.
The following tables include standardized average annual total return and
nonstandardized total return quotations for various periods as of December 31,
1998, and compares these quotations to various indexes.

sum withdrawal will be subject to income tax. After-tax contributions to the
Non-Qualified Annuity and the Conventional Savings Plan are $138 per month. Only
the gain in the Non-Qualified Annuity will be subject to income tax in a taxable
lump sum withdrawal. The chart assumes a 31% federal marginal tax rate,
representative of the target market, and an 8% annual return. Tax rates are
subject to change as is the tax-deferred treatment of the Contracts.
Tax-deferred retirement accumulations, as well as the income on Non-Qualified
Annuities, are taxed as ordinary income upon withdrawal. A 10% tax penalty may
apply to early withdrawals. See "Federal Income Taxes" in the prospectus. The
chart does not reflect the following charges and expenses under Kemper Advantage
III: 1.00% mortality and expense risk; .30% administration charges; 6% maximum
deferred withdrawal charge; and $36 annual records maintenance charge. The
tax-deferred accumulation would be reduced if these charges were reflected. No
implication is intended by the use of these assumptions that the return shown is
guaranteed in any way or that the return shown represents an average or expected
rate of return over the period of the Contracts. [IMPORTANT--THIS IS NOT AN
ILLUSTRATION OF YIELD OR RETURN]
Unlike savings plans, contributions to tax-deferred retirement annuities and
Non-Qualified Annuities provide tax-deferred treatment on earnings. In addition,
contributions to tax-deferred retirement annuities are not subject to current
tax in the year of contribution. When monies are received from a tax-deferred
retirement annuity or Non-Qualified Annuity (and you have many different options
on how you receive your funds), they are subject to income tax. At the time of
receipt, if the person receiving the monies is retired, not working or has
additional tax exemptions, these monies may be taxed at a lesser rate.

STATE REGULATION
KILICO is subject to the laws of Illinois governing insurance companies and to
regulation by the Illinois Department of Insurance. An annual statement in a
prescribed form is filed with the Illinois Department of Insurance each year.
KILICO's books and accounts are subject to review by the Department of Insurance
at all times, and a full examination of its operations is conducted
periodically. Such regulation does not, however, involve any supervision of
management or investment practices or policies. In addition, KILICO is subject
to regulation under the insurance laws of other jurisdictions in which it may
operate.
EXPERTS
The consolidated balance sheets of KILICO as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and
the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income,
stockholder's equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1998 and
1997 have been included herein and in the registration statement in reliance
upon the report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent public accountants,
appearing elsewhere herein, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in
accounting and auditing. The consolidated statements of operations,
comprehensive income, stockholder's equity, and cash flows of KILICO and
subsidiaries for the period from January 4, 1996 to December 31, 1996 and the
financial statement schedules as of December 31, 1996 have been included herein
and in the registration statement in reliance upon the report of KPMG LLP,
independent certified public accountants, appearing elsewhere herein, and upon
the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing.
The statements of assets and liabilities and contract owners' equity of the
Separate Account as of December 31, 1998, and the related statement of

then ended and for each period presented have been included herein in reliance
upon the report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent public accountants,
appearing elsewhere herein, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in

CHANGE OF ACCOUNTANTS
On September 12, 1997, KILICO appointed the accounting firm of
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PricewaterhouseCoopers"), formerly Coopers &
Lybrand, L.L.P., as independent accountants for the year ended December 31, 1997
to replace KPMG LLP effective with such appointment. Our Board of Directors
approved the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers as the new independent
accountants. Management had not consulted with PricewaterhouseCoopers on any
accounting, auditing or reporting matter, prior to that time.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, there were no disagreements with
KPMG LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure or any reportable events.
KPMG LLP's report on the financial statements for 1996 contained no adverse
opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
There were no disagreements with PricewaterhouseCoopers on accounting or
financial disclosures for the years ended December 31, 1998 or 1997.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This Statement of Additional Information contains financial statements for the
Separate Account which reflect assets attributable to the Contracts and also
reflect assets attributable to other variable annuity contracts offered by
KILICO through the Separate Account.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND
CONTRACT OWNERS OF KILICO VARIABLE ANNUITY SEPARATE ACCOUNT:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities and
contract owners' equity and the related statement of operations and changes in
owner's equity present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of the subaccounts of KILICO Variable Annuity Separate Account, which includes
the Money Market Subaccount, Money Market Subaccount #2, Total Return
Subaccount, High Yield Subaccount, Growth Subaccount, Government Securities
Subaccount, International Subaccount, Small Cap Growth Subaccount, Investment
Grade Bond Subaccount, Contrarian Value Subaccount, Small Cap Value Subaccount,
Value+Growth Subaccount, Horizon 20+ Subaccount, Horizon 10+ Subaccount, and
Horizon 5 Subaccount (investment options within the Investors Fund Series),
Short-term Bond Subaccount, Growth Subaccount, Aggressive Growth Subaccount,
Worldwide Growth Subaccount, and Balanced Subaccount (investment options within
the Janus Aspen Series), Natural Resources Subaccount and Emerging Markets
Subaccount (investment options within the Lexington Funds), Equity-Income
Subaccount, Growth Subaccount, Asset Manager Subaccount, Index 500 Subaccount
and Contrafund Subaccount (investment options within the Fidelity VIP Funds),
thereof, at December 31, 1998 and the changes in their equity for the year then
ended and for the period presented, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company's management; our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards which 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, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included direct confirmation of investments owned at December 31,
1998 by correspondence with transfer agents, provides a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.

KILICO VARIABLE ANNUITY SEPARATE ACCOUNT
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company 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 a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zurich Financial
Services ("ZFS"). ZFS was formed with the September 7, 1998 merger of the Zurich
Group with the financial services business of B.A.T. Industries. 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 (SMI) replacing
Zurich. Allied Zurich p.l.c., representing the financial interest of the
financial services business of B.A.T. Industries, is included in the FTSE-100
Share Index in London.
The Separate Account is used to fund contracts or certificates (collectively
referred to as "contracts") for ADVANTAGE III periodic and flexible payment
variable annuity contracts, PASSPORT individual and group variable and market
value adjusted deferred annuity contracts and DESTINATIONS individual and group
variable, fixed and market value adjusted deferred annuity contracts. The
Separate Account is divided into a total of thirty-nine subaccounts with various
subaccount options available to Contract Owners depending upon their respective
Contracts. A total of only twenty-six subaccount options are presented in the
accompanying financial statements, (the Money Market Subaccounts represent one
subaccount), as available subaccount options to Contract Owners. The Janus
Short-Term Bond Subaccount was closed to purchases by Janus Capital Corporation
effective May 1, 1998 and liquidated September 28, 1998. PASSPORT Contract
Owners have two additional subaccounts which invest exclusively in the shares of
subaccounts in the Investors Fund Series which are not reflected in the
accompanying financial statements. DESTINATIONS Contract Owners have thirteen
additional subaccounts which invest in the shares of subaccounts in the
Investors Fund Series, Scudder Variable Life Investment Funds, Janus Aspen
Series and Warburg Pincus Trust Funds which are also not reflected in the
accompanying financial statements. Each subaccount invests exclusively in the
shares of a corresponding portfolio of one of the underlying investment funds;
the Investors Fund Series, the Janus Aspen Series, the Lexington Funds and the
Fidelity VIP Funds, all of which are open-end diversified management investment
companies.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principals requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
could affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as the
disclosure of contingent amounts at the date of the financial statements. As a
result, actual results reported as income and expenses could differ from the
estimates reported in the accompanying financial statements.
SECURITY VALUATION
The investments are stated at current value which is based on the closing bid
price, net asset value, at December 31, 1998.
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 a first in, first out (FIFO) 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.
(Central 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.
B-41
<PAGE> 94
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.

assesses that portion of each subaccount representing assets under DESTINATIONS
individual and group variable, fixed and market value adjusted deferred annuity
contracts with a daily asset charge for mortality and expense risk and
administrative costs which amounts to an aggregate of one and four-tenths
percent (1.40%) per annum. The PASSPORT and DESTINATIONS DCA Money Market

more of the subaccounts at any time during the year a records maintenance
charge. For contracts purchased prior to June 1, 1993, the charge is $25 and is

1993 and subsequent, the charge is $36 and is assessed ratably every quarter of
each calendar year, except in those states which have yet to approve these
contract changes. The charge is assessed whether or not any purchase payments
have been made during the year. KILICO also assesses against each PASSPORT and
DESTINATIONS contract participating in one or more of the subaccounts a records
maintenance charge of $30 at the end of each contract year. The records
maintenance charge for ADVANTAGE III, PASSPORT and DESTINATIONS contracts are
waived for all individual contracts whose investment value exceeds $50,000 on
the date of assessment. For the year ended December 31, 1998, records
maintenance charges totaled $2,044,611, $151,021 and $60 for ADVANTAGE III,
PASSPORT and DESTINATIONS contracts, respectively.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Board of Directors and Stockholder of
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company:
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31,
1998 and 1997 and the related consolidated statements of operations,
comprehensive income, stockholder's equity and cash flows present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Kemper Investors Life Insurance
Company and subsidiaries (the "Company") at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, in our
opinion, the financial statement schedules listed in the accompanying index
present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when
read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These
financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of
the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which 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, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. The financial
statements of the Company for the period from January 4, 1996 to December 31,
1996 were audited by other independent accountants whose report, dated March 21,
1997, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries (the "Company") issues
fixed and variable annuity products, variable life, term life and
interest-sensitive life insurance products marketed primarily through a network
of financial institutions, securities brokerage firms, insurance agents and
financial planners. The Company is licensed in the District of Columbia and all
states except New York. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kemper
Corporation ("Kemper"). Effective January 4, 1996, Zurich Insurance Company
("Zurich"), Insurance Partners, L.P. ("IP") and Insurance Partners Offshore
(Bermuda), L.P. (together with IP, "Insurance Partners") owned 80 percent and 20
percent, respectively, of Kemper and therefore the Company. On February 27,
1998, Zurich acquired Insurance Partner's remaining 20 percent interest for
cash. As a result of this transaction, Kemper and the Company 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.
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company on a consolidated
basis. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1997 and 1996
consolidated financial statements in order for them to conform to the 1998
presentation.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The acquisition of the Company on January 4, 1996, was accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting. The consolidated financial statements of the
Company prior to January 4, 1996, were prepared on a historical cost basis in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended
December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998, have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
could affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as the
disclosure of contingent assets or liabilities at the date of the financial
statements. As a result, actual results reported as revenue and expenses could
differ from the estimates reported in the accompanying financial statements. As
further discussed in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial
statements, significant estimates and assumptions affect deferred insurance
acquisition costs, the value of business acquired, provisions for real
estate-related losses and reserves, other-than-temporary declines in values for
fixed maturities, the valuation allowance for deferred income taxes and the
calculation of fair value disclosures for certain financial instruments.
GOODWILL
The Company reviews goodwill to determine if events or changes in circumstances
may have affected the recoverability of the outstanding goodwill as of each
reporting period. In the event that the Company determines that goodwill is not
recoverable, it would amortize such amounts as additional goodwill expense in
the accompanying financial statements. As of December 31, 1998, the Company
believes that no such adjustment is necessary.
The Company began to amortize goodwill during 1996 on a straight-line basis over
twenty-five years. In December of 1997, the Company changed its amortization
period to twenty years in order to conform to Zurich's accounting practices and
policies. As a result of the change in amortization periods, the Company
recorded an increase in goodwill amortization expense of $5.1 million during
1997.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
VALUE OF BUSINESS ACQUIRED
The value of business acquired reflects the estimated fair value of the
Company's life insurance business in force and represents the portion of the
cost to acquire the Company 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.
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:

2003.......................................... 65,291 (15,504) 3,948 53,735
</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 the Company's net income but rather are recorded as a credit or
charge to accumulated other comprehensive income, net of income tax. As of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, this adjustment decreased the value of business
acquired by $7.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively, and accumulated other
comprehensive income by approximately $4.7 million and $3.4 million,
respectively.
LIFE INSURANCE REVENUE AND EXPENSES
Revenue for annuities, variable life insurance and interest-sensitive life
insurance products consists of investment income, and policy charges such as
mortality, expense and surrender charges and expense loads for premium taxes on
certain contracts. Expenses consist of benefits and interest credited to
contracts, policy maintenance costs and amortization of deferred insurance
acquisition costs.
Premiums for term life policies are reported as earned when due. Profits for
such policies are recognized over the duration of the insurance policies by
matching benefits and expenses to premium income.
DEFERRED INSURANCE ACQUISITION COSTS
The costs of acquiring new business, principally commission expense and certain
policy issuance and underwriting expenses, have been deferred to the extent they
are recoverable from estimated future gross profits on the related contracts and
policies. The deferred insurance acquisition costs for annuities, separate
account business and interest-sensitive life insurance products are being
amortized over the estimated contract life in relation to the present value of
estimated gross profits. Deferred insurance acquisition costs related to such
interest-sensitive products also reflect the estimated impact of unrealized
gains or losses on fixed maturities held as available for sale in the investment
portfolio, through a credit or charge to accumulated other comprehensive income,
net of income tax. The deferred insurance acquisition costs for term-life
insurance products are being amortized over the premium paying period of the
policies.
B-62

KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
FUTURE POLICY BENEFITS
Liabilities for future policy benefits related to annuities and
interest-sensitive life contracts reflect net premiums received plus interest
credited during the contract accumulation period and the present value of future
payments for contracts that have annuitized. Current interest rates credited
during the contract accumulation period range from 3.0 percent to 7.5 percent.
Future minimum guaranteed interest rates vary from 3.0 percent to 4.0 percent.
For contracts that have annuitized, interest rates used in determining the
present value of future payments range principally from 2.5 percent to 12.0
percent.
Liabilities for future term life policy benefits have been computed principally
by a net level premium method. Anticipated rates of mortality are based on the
1975-1980 Select and Ultimate Table modified by Company experience, including
withdrawals. Estimated future investment yields are a level 6.8 percent.
GUARANTY FUND ASSESSMENTS
The Company is liable for guaranty fund assessments related to certain
unaffiliated insurance companies that have become insolvent during the years
1998 and prior. The Company's financial statements include provisions for all
known assessments that are expected to be levied against the Company as well as
an estimate of amounts (net of estimated future premium tax recoveries) that the
Company believes it will be assessed in the future for which the life insurance
industry has estimated the cost to cover losses to policyholders.
INVESTED ASSETS AND RELATED INCOME
Investments in fixed maturities and equity securities are carried at fair value.
Short-term investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.
The amortized cost of fixed maturities is adjusted for amortization of premiums
and accretion of discounts to maturity, or in the case of mortgage-backed and
asset-backed securities, over the estimated life of the security. Such
amortization is included in net investment income. Amortization of the discount
or premium from mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities is recognized using
a level effective yield method which considers the estimated timing and amount
of prepayments of the underlying loans and is adjusted to reflect differences
which arise between the prepayments originally anticipated and the actual
prepayments received and currently anticipated. To the extent that the estimated
lives of such securities change as a result of changes in prepayment rates, the
adjustment is also included in net investment income. The Company does not
accrue interest income on fixed maturities deemed to be impaired on an
other-than-temporary basis, or on mortgage loans and other real estate loans
where the likelihood of collection of interest is doubtful.
Mortgage loans are carried at their unpaid balance, net of unamortized discount
and any applicable reserves or write-downs. Other real estate-related
investments, net of any applicable reserves and write-downs, include: (1) notes
receivable from real estate ventures; (2) investments in real estate ventures,
adjusted for the equity in the operating income or loss of such ventures, and
(3) real estate owned at December 31, 1997, carried at fair value. Real estate
reserves are established when declines in collateral values, estimated in light
of current economic conditions, indicate a likelihood of loss.
Investments in policy loans and other invested assets, consisting primarily of
venture capital investments and a leveraged lease, are carried primarily at
cost.
Realized gains or losses on sales of investments, determined on the basis of
identifiable cost on the disposition of the respective investment, recognition
of other-than-temporary declines in value and changes in real estate-related
reserves and write-downs are included in revenue. Net unrealized gains or losses
on revaluation of investments are credited or charged to accumulated other
comprehensive income. Such unrealized gains are recorded net of deferred income
tax expense, while unrealized losses are not tax benefitted.
SEPARATE ACCOUNT BUSINESS
The assets and liabilities of the separate accounts represent segregated funds
administered and invested by the Company for purposes of funding variable
annuity and variable life insurance contracts for the exclusive benefit
B-63
<PAGE> 116
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
of variable annuity and variable life insurance contract holders. The Company
receives administrative fees from the separate account and retains varying
amounts of withdrawal charges to cover expenses in the event of early
withdrawals by contract holders. The assets and liabilities of the separate
accounts are carried at fair value.
INCOME TAX
For the period January 1 through January 4, 1996, the Company's federal income
tax return was consolidated with Kemper and Kemper's other wholly-owned life
insurance subsidiary, Federal Kemper Life Assurance Company ("FKLA"). The Boards
of Directors of Kemper, KILICO and FKLA, adopted a written plan that provided
that federal income taxes would be paid to or recovered from Kemper on the basis
of each company's taxable income or loss as shown on its respective federal
income tax return. In the event of a federal income tax credit which is greater
than the amount recoverable from the other life insurance company or from the
Internal Revenue Service, the funds available would be apportioned among the
life companies entitled to a recovery on the basis of the relationship of each
company's tax credit to the total of all of the life insurance companies in a
deficit position. For the period January 5 through December 31, 1996, and
subsequent years, the Company has filed a separate federal income tax return.
Deferred taxes are provided on the temporary differences between the tax and
financial statement basis of assets and liabilities.
(2) CASH FLOW INFORMATION
The Company defines cash as cash in banks and money market accounts. The Company
paid federal income taxes of $126.0 million, $29.0 million and $28.1 million
directly to the United States Treasury Department during 1998, 1997 and 1996
respectively.
(3) INVESTED ASSETS AND RELATED INCOME
The Company is carrying its fixed maturity investment portfolio at estimated
fair value as fixed maturities are considered available for sale. The carrying
value of fixed maturities compared with amortized cost, adjusted for
other-than-temporary declines in value, were as follows:

Proceeds from sales of investments in fixed maturities prior to maturity were
$882.6 million, $633.9 million and $892.0 million during 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. Gross gains of $10.1 million, $3.1 million and $9.9 million and
gross losses of $8.0 million, $13.7 million and $16.2 million were realized on
sales and write-downs of fixed maturities in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
At December 31, 1998, the Company had 12 separate asset-backed securities
included in fixed maturity investments from trusts formed to collateralize
assets underwritten by Green Tree Financial Corporation, which in aggregate
amounted to $97.7 million. No other individual investments exceeded ten percent
of stockholder's equity at December 31, 1998.
At December 31, 1998, securities carried at approximately $6.4 million were on
deposit with governmental agencies as required by law.
Upon default or indication of potential default by an issuer of fixed maturity
securities, the issue(s) of such issuer would be placed on nonaccrual status
and, since declines in fair value would no longer be considered by the Company
to be temporary, would be analyzed for possible write-down. Any such issue would
be written down to its net realizable value during the fiscal quarter in which
the impairment was determined to have become other than temporary. Thereafter,
each issue on nonaccrual status is regularly reviewed, and additional
write-downs may be taken in light of later developments.
The Company's computation of net realizable value involves judgments and
estimates, so such value should be used with care. Such value determination
considers such factors as the existence and value of any collateral security;
the capital structure of the issuer; the level of actual and expected market
interest rates; where the issue ranks in comparison with other debt of the
issuer; the economic and competitive environment of the issuer and its business;
the Company's view on the likelihood of success of any proposed issuer
restructuring plan; and the timing, type and amount of any restructured
securities that the Company anticipates it will receive.
The Company's $164.4 million real estate portfolio at December 31, 1998 consists
of joint venture and third-party mortgage loans and other real estate-related
investments. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, total impaired real estate-related
loans were as follows:

Impaired loans without reserves include loans in which the deficit in equity
investments in real estate-related investments is considered in determining
reserves and write-downs. The Company had an average balance of $54.6 million
and $45.2 million in impaired loans for 1998 and 1997, respectively. Cash
payments received on impaired loans are generally applied to reduce the
outstanding loan balance.
At December 31, 1998 and 1997, loans on nonaccrual status, before reserves and
write-downs, amounted to $37.4 million and $47.4 million, respectively. The
Company's nonaccrual loans are generally included in impaired loans.

(4) UNCONSOLIDATED INVESTEES
At December 31, 1998 and 1997 the Company, along with other Kemper subsidiaries,
directly held partnership interests in a number of real estate joint ventures.
The Company's direct and indirect real estate joint venture investments are
accounted for utilizing the equity method, with the Company recording its share
of the operating results of the respective partnerships. The Company, as an
equity owner, has the ability to fund, and historically has elected to fund,
operating requirements of certain of the joint ventures. Consolidation
accounting methods are not utilized as the Company, in most instances, does not
own more than 50 percent in the aggregate, and in any event, major decisions of
the partnership must be made jointly by all partners.
As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company's net equity investment in
unconsolidated investees amounted to $1.2 million and $19.3 million,
respectively. The Company's share of net income related to such unconsolidated
investees amounted to $241 thousand, $835 thousand and $223 thousand in 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively.
(5) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Company generally strives to maintain a diversified invested asset
portfolio; however, certain concentrations of credit risk exist in mortgage and
asset-backed securities and real estate.
Approximately 28.0 percent of the Company's investment-grade fixed maturities at
December 31, 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. The Company has not made any investments in
interest-only or other similarly volatile tranches of mortgage-backed
securities. The Company's mortgage-backed investments are generally AAA credit
quality.
Approximately 15.4 percent and 10.8 percent of the Company's investment-grade
fixed maturities at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, consisted of
corporate asset-backed securities. The majority of the Company's investments in
asset-backed securities were backed by home equity loans (21.9%), auto loans
(8.2%), manufactured housing loans (14.8%), equipment loans (5.2%), and
commercial mortgage backed securities (22.1%).
The Company's real estate portfolio is distributed by geographic location and
property type. The geographic distribution of a majority of the real estate
portfolio as of December 31, 1998 was as follows: California
B-67
<PAGE> 120
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(31.5%), Hawaii (16.2%), Washington (9.9%) and Colorado (9.4%). The property
type distribution of a majority of the real estate portfolio as of December 31,
1998 was as follows: hotels (39.9%), land (30.9%) and residential (15.5%).
Undeveloped land represented approximately 30.9 percent of the Company's real
estate portfolio at December 31, 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 the Company 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 the Company. The values of
development projects are dependent on a number of factors, including Kemper's
and the Company'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
the Company's plans with respect to such projects may not change substantially.
Approximately half of the Company's real estate mortgage loans are on properties
or projects where the Company, Kemper, or their affiliates have taken ownership
positions in joint ventures with a small number of partners.
At December 31, 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 $64.5 million, or
39.3 percent, of the Company's real estate portfolio. The Nesbitt ventures
consist of nine hotel properties and two office buildings. At December 31, 1998,
the Company did not have any Nesbitt-related off-balance-sheet legal funding
commitments outstanding.
At December 31, 1998, loans to a master limited partnership (the "MLP") between
subsidiaries of Kemper and subsidiaries of Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Company
("Lumbermens"), a former affiliate, constituted approximately $51.6 million, or
31.4 percent, of the Company's real estate portfolio. Kemper's interest is 75
percent at December 31, 1998. At December 31, 1998, MLP-related commitments
accounted for approximately $6.1 million of the Company's off-balance-sheet
legal commitments.
The remaining significant real estate-related investments amounted to $27.3
million at December 31, 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, the Company has placed these real estate-related investments on
nonaccrual status as of December 31, 1996. The Company 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 Hawaii's economy,
which has lagged behind the economic expansion of most of the rest of the United
States, the Company anticipates that it could be several additional years until
the Company completely disposes of all of its investments in Hawaii.
At December 31, 1998, the Company 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. However, the Company continues to have Prime
Group-related commitments, which accounted for $25.7 million of the Company's
off-balance-sheet legal commitments at December 31, 1998.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are generally determined based on the
difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and
liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the
differences are expected to reverse. The Company only records deferred tax
assets if future realization of the tax benefit is more likely than not, with a
valuation allowance recorded for the portion that is not likely to be realized.
The valuation allowance is subject to future adjustments based upon, among other
items, the Company's estimates of future operating earnings and capital gains.
The Company has established a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred federal
tax asset related to real estate and other investments to the amount that, based
upon available evidence, is, in management's judgment, more likely than not, to
be realized. Any reversals of the valuation allowance are contingent upon the
recognition of future capital gains in the Company's federal income tax return
or a change in circumstances which causes the recognition of the benefits to
become more likely than not. The change in the valuation allowance is related
solely to the change in the net deferred federal tax asset or liability from
unrealized gains or losses on investments.

The net deferred tax assets relate primarily to unearned revenue and the tax on
deferred insurance acquisition costs ("DAC Tax") associated with $1.5 billion
and $2.7 billion of new and renewal sales in 1998 and 1997, respectively from a
non-registered individual and group variable bank-owned life insurance contract
("BOLI"). Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results
of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income over the ten year
amortization period of the unearned revenue and DAC Tax to realize such deferred
tax assets.
The tax returns through the year 1993 have been examined by the Internal Revenue
Service ("IRS"). Changes proposed are not material to the Company's financial
position. The tax returns for the years 1994 through 1996 are currently under
examination by the IRS.
(7) RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company received capital contributions from Kemper of $4.3 million, $45.0
million and $18.4 million during 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Company
paid cash dividends of $95.0 million and $29.3 million to Kemper during 1998 and
1997, respectively. The Company did not pay any cash dividends to Kemper during
1996.
The Company has loans to joint ventures, consisting primarily of mortgage loans
on real estate, in which the Company and/or one of its affiliates has an
ownership interest. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, joint venture mortgage loans
totaled $65.8 million and $72.7 million, respectively, and during 1998, 1997 and
1996, the Company earned interest income on these joint venture loans of $6.8
million, $7.5 million and $9.5 million, respectively.
All of the Company's personnel are employees of Federal Kemper Life Assurance
Company ("FKLA"), an affiliated company. The Company is allocated expenses for
the utilization of FKLA employees and facilities, the

investment management services of Scudder Kemper Investments, Inc. ("SKI") an
affiliated company, and the information systems of Kemper Service Company
("KSvC"), an SKI subsidiary, based on the Company's share of administrative,
legal, marketing, investment management, information systems and operation and
support services. During 1998, 1997 and 1996, expenses allocated to the Company
from SKI and KSvC amounted to $43 thousand, $114 thousand and $1.7 million,
respectively. The Company also paid to SKI investment management fees of $3.1
million, $3.5 million and $3.6 million during 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
In addition, expenses allocated to the Company from FKLA during 1998, 1997 and
1996 amounted to $35.5 million, $30.0 million and $10.5 million, respectively.
The Company also paid to Kemper real estate subsidiaries $1.5 million, $2.2
million and $1.8 million in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively, related to the
management of the Company's real estate portfolio.
(8) REINSURANCE
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into reinsurance
agreements to diversify risk and limit its overall financial exposure to certain
blocks of fixed-rate annuities and to individual death claims. The Company
generally cedes 100 percent of the related annuity liabilities under the terms
of the reinsurance agreements. Although these reinsurance agreements
contractually obligate the reinsurers to reimburse the Company, they do not
discharge the Company from its primary liabilities and obligations to
policyholders. As such, these amounts paid or deemed to have been paid are
recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheet as reinsurance recoverables
and ceded future policy benefits.
As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the reinsurance recoverable related to
fixed-rate annuity liabilities ceded to an affiliate amounted to $344.8 million
and $382.6 million, respectively.
In December 1996, the Company assumed on a yearly renewable term basis
approximately $14.4 billion (face amount) of term life insurance from FKLA. As a
result of this transaction, the Company recorded premiums and reserves of
approximately $7.3 million. The difference between the cash transferred, which
represents the statutory reserves of the business assumed, and the reserves
recorded under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), of
approximately $18.4 million, was deemed to be a capital contribution from Kemper
and was recorded as additional paid-in-capital during 1996. As of the date of
this transaction, no deferred tax impact was recorded on the difference between
the statutory and GAAP reserves. This deferred tax impact of $6.5 million was
recorded in 1998 as a reduction to the original capital contribution. Premiums
assumed during 1998 under the terms of the treaty amounted to $21.6 million and
the face amount which remained outstanding at December 31, 1998 amounted to
$11.7 billion.
Effective January 1, 1997, the Company ceded 90 percent of all new term life
insurance premiums to outside reinsurers. Term life reserves ceded to outside
reinsurers on the Company's direct business amounted to approximately $293
thousand and $139 thousand as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
During December 1997, the Company entered into a funds withheld reinsurance
agreement with a Zurich affiliated company, ZC Life Reinsurance Limited ("ZC
Life"), formerly EPICENTRE Reinsurance (Bermuda) Limited. Under the terms of
this agreement, the Company 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 the new BOLI product
developed in 1997, which is held in the Company's separate accounts. During
1997, the Company issued $59.3 billion (face amount) of new BOLI business and
ceded $51.1 billion (face amount) to ZC Life under the terms of the treaty.
During 1997, the Company also ceded $24.3 million of separate account fees (cost
of insurance charges) to ZC Life. The Company has also withheld approximately
$23.4 million of such funds due to ZC Life under the terms of the reinsurance
agreement as a component of benefits and funds payable in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1997.
During 1998, the Company modified the reinsurance agreement to increase the
reinsurance from ninety percent to one hundred percent. During 1998, the Company
issued $6.9 billion (face amount) of new BOLI business and ceded $11.1 billion
(face amount) to ZC Life under the terms of the modified treaty. During 1998,
the Company also ceded $175.5 million of separate account fees (cost of
insurance charges) to ZC Life. The

credits on reinsurance ceded on the BOLI product. Amendments to the reinsurance
contracts during 1998 changed the methodology used to determine increases to the
FWA. A substantial portion of the FWA is now marked-to-market based upon the
Total Return of the Governmental Bond Division of the KILICO Variable Series I
Separate Account. During 1998, the Company recorded a $2.5 million increase to
the FWA related to this mark-to-market. To properly match revenue and expenses,
the Company has placed assets supporting the FWA in a segmented portion of its
General Account. This portfolio is classified as "trading" under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 ("FAS 115"). FAS 115 mandates that assets
held in a trading account be valued at fair value, with changes in fair value
flowing through the income statement as realized capital gains and losses.
During 1998, the Company recorded a realized capital gain of $2.8 million upon
transfer of these assets from "available for sale" to the trading portfolio as
required by FAS 115. In addition, the Company recorded realized capital losses
of $151 thousand related to the changes in fair value of this portfolio during
1998. The fair value of this portfolio was $101.8 million at December 31, 1998,
and the amortized cost was $99.1 million. The Company periodically purchases
assets into this segmented portfolio to support changes in the FWA.
(9) POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS
FKLA sponsors a welfare plan that provides medical and life insurance benefits
to its retired and active employees and the Company is allocated a portion of
the costs of providing such benefits. The Company is self insured with respect
to medical benefits, and the plan is not funded except with respect to certain
disability-related medical claims. The medical plan provides for medical
insurance benefits at retirement, with eligibility based upon age and the
participant's number of years of participation attained at retirement. The plan
is contributory for pre-Medicare retirees, and will be contributory for all
retiree coverage for most current employees, with contributions generally
adjusted annually. Postretirement life insurance benefits are noncontributory
and are limited to $10,000 per participant.
The allocated accumulated postretirement benefit obligation accrued by the
Company amounted to $2.0 million and $1.9 million at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
The discount rate used in determining the allocated postretirement benefit
obligation was 7.0 percent and 7.25 percent for 1998 and 1997, respectively. The
assumed health care trend rate used was based on projected experience for 1998,
8.0 percent for 1999, gradually declining to 6.4 percent by the year 2003 and
gradually declining thereafter.
A one percentage point increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate for
each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997 by $312 thousand and $242 thousand, respectively.
(10) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Company is involved in various legal actions for which it establishes
liabilities where appropriate. In the opinion of the Company's management, based
upon the advice of legal counsel, the resolution of such litigation is not
expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial
statements.
Although neither the Company nor its joint venture projects have been identified
as a "potentially responsible party" under Federal environmental guidelines,
inherent in the ownership of, or lending to, real estate projects is the
possibility that environmental pollution conditions may exist on or near or
relate to properties owned or previously owned on properties securing loans.
Where the Company has presently identified remediation costs, they have been
taken into account in determining the cash flows and resulting valuations of the
related real estate assets. Based on the Company's receipt and review of
environmental reports on most of the projects in which it is involved, the
Company believes its environmental exposure would be immaterial to its
consolidated results of operations. However, the Company may be required in the
future to take actions to remedy environmental exposures, and there can be no
assurance that material environmental exposures will not
B-72

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(10) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (CONTINUED)
develop or be identified in the future. The amount of future environmental costs
is impossible to estimate due to, among other factors, the unknown magnitude of
possible exposures, the unknown timing and extent of corrective actions that may
be required, the determination of the Company's liability in proportion to
others and the extent such costs may be covered by insurance or various
environmental indemnification agreements.
(11) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS--OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK
At December 31, 1998, the Company had future legal loan commitments and stand-by
financing agreements totaling $64.4 million to support the financing needs of
various real estate investments. To the extent these arrangements are called
upon, amounts loaned would be collateralized by assets of the joint ventures,
including first mortgage liens on the real estate. The Company's criteria in
making these arrangements are the same as for its mortgage loans and other real
estate investments. These commitments are included in the Company's analysis of
real estate-related reserves and write-downs. The fair values of loan
commitments and standby financing agreements are estimated in conjunction with
and using the same methodology as the fair value estimates of mortgage loans and
other real estate-related investments.
(12) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value estimates are made at specific points in time, based on relevant
market information and information about the financial instrument. These
estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering
for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial
instrument. A significant portion of the Company's financial instruments are
carried at fair value. Fair value estimates for financial instruments not
carried at fair value are generally determined using discounted cash flow models
and assumptions that are based on judgments regarding current and future
economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the investments. Although
fair value estimates are calculated using assumptions that management believes
are appropriate, changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates
and such estimates should be used with care.
Fair value estimates are determined for existing on- and off-balance sheet
financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated
future business and the value of assets and certain liabilities that are not
considered financial instruments. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value
estimates presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company. For
example, the Company's subsidiaries are not considered financial instruments,
and their value has not been incorporated into the fair value estimates. In
addition, tax ramifications related to the realization of unrealized gains and
losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been
considered in any of the estimates.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the
fair value of its financial instruments:
FIXED MATURITIES AND EQUITY SECURITIES: Fair values were determined by using
market quotations, or independent pricing services that use prices provided by
market makers or estimates of fair values obtained from yield data relating to
instruments or securities with similar characteristics, or fair value as
determined in good faith by the Company's portfolio manager, SKI.
CASH AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS: The carrying amounts reported in the
consolidated balance sheets for these instruments approximate fair values.
MORTGAGE LOANS AND OTHER REAL ESTATE-RELATED INVESTMENTS: Fair values were
estimated based upon the investments observable market price, net of estimated
costs to sell. The estimates of fair value should be used with care given the
inherent difficulty in estimating the fair value of real estate due to the lack
of a liquid quotable market.
OTHER LOANS AND INVESTMENTS: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated
balance sheets for these instruments approximate fair values. The fair values of
policy loans were estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using
an interest rate charged on policy loans for similar policies currently being
issued.
B-73
<PAGE> 126
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
LIFE POLICY BENEFITS: Fair values of the life policy benefits regarding
investment contracts (primarily deferred annuities) and universal life contracts
were estimated by discounting gross benefit payments, net of contractual
premiums, using the average crediting rate currently being offered in the
marketplace for similar contracts with maturities consistent with those
remaining for the contracts being valued. The Company had projected its future
average crediting rate in 1998 and 1997 to be 4.75 percent and 5.25 percent,
respectively, while the assumed average market crediting rate was 5.0 percent
and 6.0 percent in 1998 and 1997, respectively.
The carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company's financial
instruments at December 31, 1998 and 1997 were as follows:

(15) OPERATING SEGMENTS AND RELATED INFORMATION
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN
ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for how
to report information about operating segments. It also establishes standards
for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major
customers. The Company adopted SFAS No. 131 as of December 31, 1998 and the
impact of implementation
B-75
<PAGE> 128
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
did not affect the Company's consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows. In the initial year of adoption, SFAS No. 131 requires
comparative information for earlier years to be restated, unless impracticable
to do so.
In connection with the acquisition by Zurich, the Company, FKLA, ZLICA, and
Fidelity Life Association ("FLA"), a Mutual Legal Reserve Company, owned by its
policyholders, began to operate under the trade name Zurich Kemper Life. For
purposes of this operating segment disclosure, Zurich Kemper Life will also
include the operations of Zurich Direct, Inc., an affiliated direct marketing
life insurance agency and excludes FLA, as it is owned by its policyholders.
Zurich Kemper Life is segregated by Strategic Business Unit ("SBU"). The SBU
concept employed by ZFS has each SBU concentrate on a specific customer market.
The SBU is the focal point of Zurich Kemper Life, because it is at the SBU level
that Zurich Kemper Life can clearly identify customer segments and then work to
understand and satisfy the needs of each customer. The contributions of Zurich
Kemper Life's SBU's to consolidated revenues, operating results and certain
balance sheet data pertaining thereto, are shown in the following tables on the
basis of generally accepted accounting principles. Zurich Kemper Life's SBU's
were formed in 1996, subsequent to the acquisition by Zurich, however, financial
information was not produced by SBU until 1997. Therefore, Zurich Kemper Life
has not provided segment information for 1996, as it would be impracticable to
do so.
Zurich Kemper Life is segregated into the Agency, Financial, Group Retirement
and Direct SBU's. The SBU's are not managed at the legal entity level, but
rather at the Zurich Kemper Life level. Zurich Kemper Life's SBU's cross legal
entity lines, as certain similar products are sold by more than one legal
entity. The vast majority of the Company's business is derived from the
Financial and Group Retirement SBU's.
Each SBU's revenue is derived from geographically dispersed areas as Zurich
Kemper Life is licensed in the District of Columbia and all states except New
York. During 1998 and 1997, Zurich Kemper Life did not derive net revenue from
one customer that exceeded 10 percent of the total revenue of Zurich Kemper
Life.
The principal products and markets of Zurich Kemper Life's SBU's are as follows:
AGENCY: The Agency SBU develops low cost term and universal life insurance, as
well as fixed annuities, to market through independent agencies and national
marketing organizations.
FINANCIAL: The Financial SBU focuses on a wide range of products that provide
for the accumulation, distribution and transfer of wealth and primarily includes
variable and fixed annuities, variable universal life and bank-owned life
insurance. These products are distributed to consumers through financial
intermediaries such as banks, brokerage firms and independent financial
planners.
GROUP RETIREMENT: The Group Retirement SBU has a sharp focus on its target
customer. This SBU markets variable annuities to K-12 schoolteachers,
administrators, and healthcare workers, along with college professors and
certain employees of selected non-profit organizations. This target market is
eligible for what the IRS designates as retirement-oriented savings or
investment plans that qualify for special tax treatment.
DIRECT: The Direct SBU is a direct marketer of basic, low-cost term life
insurance through various marketing media.
