VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE POLICY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ISSUED BY
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
THROUGH ITS KILICO VARIABLE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
HOME OFFICE: 1 KEMPER DRIVE, LONG GROVE, ILLINOIS 60049 (708) 320-4500
This Prospectus describes a variable life insurance policy (the "Policy")
issued by Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company ("KILICO"). The Policy
provides for life insurance and for the accumulation of Cash Value on a variable
basis. The Death Benefit and Cash Value of the Policy may vary to reflect the
investment experience of the KILICO Variable Separate Account (the "Separate
Account").
The Policy is designed to permit the payment of a large initial premium
and, subject to certain restrictions, additional premiums. As designed, the
Policy operates substantially as a single premium policy, providing for an
initial premium payment of at least eighty percent of guideline single premiums,
as defined under Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code. This Policy, as
currently offered, is classified as a modified endowment contract for tax
purposes and, as such, distributions during the life of the Insured would be
taxed in a manner similar to an annuity. The minimum initial premium KILICO will
accept is $5,000. An Owner may allocate premiums and Separate Account Value
under a Policy to one or more of the Subaccounts of the Separate Account. Each
Subaccount invests in one of the following portfolios of the Kemper Investors
Fund (the "Fund"): Money Market, Total Return, High Yield, Equity and Government
Securities. The International and Small Capitalization Equity Portfolios of the
Fund are not currently available for investment through the Separate Account.
The Fund is managed by Kemper Financial Services, Inc. The accompanying
Prospectus for the Fund describes the investment objectives and the attendant
risks of the portfolios of the Fund.
Until the Trade Date, the initial premium is held in KILICO's General
Account. The initial premium will be credited with interest equivalent to the
investment experience, less additional applicable charges, of the KILICO Money
Market Subaccount, from the later of the day following the date of receipt or
the Policy Date. On the Trade Date, the initial premium and any credited
investment return will be allocated to the KILICO Money Market Subaccount, and
15 days after the Trade Date, to one or more of the Subaccounts as specified in
the Owner's application.
KILICO guarantees that the Death Benefit payable for a Policy will never be
less than the Death Benefit stated on the Policy Schedule page, less Debt, as
long as the Policy is in force. There is no guaranteed Cash Value. If the
Surrender Value is insufficient to cover the charges under the Policy, the
Policy will lapse.
See "Federal Tax Matters", page 17 for a discussion of laws that affect the
tax treatment of the Policy.
The Owner may examine the Policy and return it to KILICO for a refund
during the Free-Look Period.
It may not be advantageous to purchase a Policy as a replacement for
another type of life insurance policy, or to obtain additional insurance
protection if a flexible premium variable life insurance policy is already
owned.
THIS PROSPECTUS IS VALID ONLY IF ACCOMPANIED OR PRECEDED
BY A CURRENT PROSPECTUS FOR THE KEMPER INVESTORS FUND. ALL
PROSPECTUSES SHOULD BE READ AND RETAINED FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE.
------------------------------
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE COMMISSION PASSED UPON
THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE
CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

SUMMARY
The following summary should be read in conjunction with the detailed
information in this prospectus. You should refer to the heading "Definitions"
for the meaning of certain terms. A Policy entered into on or after June 21,
1988 is considered a modified endowment contract. Further, a Policy entered into
before June 21, 1988 may, in certain circumstances, be considered a modified
endowment contract. For a Policy treated as a modified endowment contract,
certain assignments, loans and surrenders will be considered received by the
Owner and are included in the Owner's Federal gross income to the extent that
the Cash Value exceeds the Owner's investment in the Policy. Subject to
specified exceptions, the portion of any amount considered received by the Owner
that is includible in gross income is subject to an additional 10 percent tax.
(See "Federal Tax Matters," at page 17.) Variations from the information
appearing in this prospectus due to individual state requirements are described
in supplements which are attached to this Prospectus, or in endorsements to the
Policy, as appropriate. Unless otherwise indicated the description of the Policy
contained in this prospectus assumes that the Policy is in force, that there is
no indebtedness, that the current Death Benefit is required to be adjusted
through multiplication of the Cash Value by the Death Benefit Factor, and that
current Federal tax laws apply.
The Owner of a Policy pays a premium for life insurance coverage on the
person insured. The Policy provides for a Surrender Value which is payable if
the Policy is terminated during an Insured's lifetime. The Death Benefit and
Cash Value of the Policy may increase or decrease to reflect the investment
experience of the Subaccounts of the Separate Account to which premiums are
allocated. There is no guaranteed Cash Value. If the Surrender Value is
insufficient to pay charges under the Policy, the Policy will lapse unless an
additional premium payment or loan repayment is made. (See "The Policy--Premiums
and Allocation of Premiums and Separate Account Value," pages 7 and 8, "Charges
and Deductions," page 13, and "Policy Benefits and Rights," page 9.)
The purpose of the Policy is to provide insurance protection for the
beneficiary named therein. No claim is made that the Policy is in any way
similar or comparable to a systematic investment plan of a mutual fund.
POLICY BENEFITS
Cash Value. The Policy provides for a Cash Value. The Cash Value will
reflect the amount and frequency of premium payments, the investment experience
of the selected Subaccounts of the Separate Account, any values in the General
Account, and charges imposed in connection with the Policy. The entire
investment risk is borne by the Owner. KILICO does not guarantee a minimum
Separate Account Value. (See "Policy Benefits and Rights--Cash Value," page 10.)
The Owner may surrender a Policy at any time and receive the Surrender
Value, which equals the Cash Value less any applicable surrender charge and
outstanding Debt. (See "Policy Benefits and Rights--Surrender Privilege," page
13.)
Policy Loans. The Owner may borrow up to 90% of the Policy's Cash Value
minus applicable surrender charges, subject to the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code. The minimum amount of a loan is $500. Interest at an effective
annual rate of 6.00% will be charged on outstanding loan amounts. (See "Federal
Tax Matters," page 17.)
When a loan is made, a portion of the Policy's Cash Value equal to the
amount of the loan will be transferred from the Separate Account
(proportionately from the Subaccounts, unless the Owner requests otherwise) to
KILICO's General Account. Cash Values within the General Account attributable to
premium will earn no less than 4.00% annual interest. That portion of the Cash
Values within the General Account attributable to amounts in excess of premium
will earn 6.00% annual interest. Such earnings will be allocated to the General
Account. (See "Policy Benefits and Rights--Policy Loans," page 12.)
Death Benefits. As long as the Policy remains in force, the Policy provides
a death benefit payment upon the death of the Insured. The death benefit is the
greater of the Death Benefit stated on the Policy Schedule, or a specified
multiple of the Cash Value. The Death Benefit stated on the Policy Schedule may
not be increased unless Cash Value times the Death Benefit Factor is at least
equal to the Death Benefit stated on the Policy Schedule. The death benefit
payable will be reduced by any Debt. (See "Policy
Benefits and Rights--Death Benefits," page 9.)
PREMIUMS
The minimum initial premium that may be paid under the Policy is $5,000.
The application for the Policy must accompany or precede the full minimum
initial premium. Subject to premium guidelines
2
<PAGE> 6
established under Federal tax law, additional premiums may be paid while the
Policy is in force, including when necessary to prevent lapse. (See "The
Policy--Premiums," page 7 and "Federal Tax Matters," page 17.)
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
Allocation of Premiums. The portion of the premium available for allocation
equals the premium paid. An Owner indicates in the application for the Policy
the percentages of premium to be allocated among the Subaccounts of the Separate
Account. The Separate Account currently consists of five Subaccounts, each of
which invests in shares of a designated portfolio of the Fund. The Fund is
managed by Kemper Financial Services, Inc., an affiliate of KILICO.
On the day following the date of receipt, the initial premium will be
allocated to the KILICO General Account. It will be credited with interest
equivalent to the investment experience of the Money Market Subaccount from the
later of the day following the date of receipt or the Policy Date. On the Trade
Date, such amount in the KILICO General Account will be allocated to the Money
Market Subaccount. Additional applicable charges which are currently the charge
for the cost of insurance will be deducted as of the Policy Date. On the Trade
Date, the Policy's Cash Value will thus be the same as if the initial premium
had been allocated to the Money Market Subaccount on the Policy Date. Fifteen
days from the Trade Date, the Separate Account Value in the Money Market
Subaccount will be allocated among the Subaccounts in accordance with the
Owner's instructions in the application. (See "Policy Issue," page 7.)
Transfers. An Owner may transfer Separate Account Value among the
Subaccounts. One transfer of all or part of the Separate Account Value may be
made within a fifteen day period. (See "Allocation of Premiums and Separate
Account Value--Transfers," page 8.)
THE FUND
The following portfolios of the Kemper Investors Fund are currently
available for investment by the Separate Account:
Money Market Portfolio, which seeks to provide maximum current income to
the extent consistent with stability of principal by investing exclusively in
debt securities maturing in 12 months or less.
Total Return Portfolio, which seeks to obtain a high total return, a
combination of income and capital appreciation, by investing in a combination of
debt securities and common stocks.
High Yield Portfolio, which seeks to provide a high level of current income
by investing in fixed-income securities.
Equity Portfolio, which seeks to provide maximum appreciation of capital
through diversification of investment securities having potential for capital
appreciation.
Government Securities Portfolio, which seeks high current return consistent
with preservation of capital from a portfolio composed primarily of U.S.
Government securities.
For a more detailed description of the Fund, see "KILICO and the Separate
Account--the Fund," page 5, the Fund prospectus, and Statement of Additional
Information available upon request.
CHARGES
Deductions will be made from the Policy's value in each Subaccount on the
Policy Date and on each Monthly Processing Date for the cost of insurance
charge. In addition, deductions will be imposed on the Policy's value in each
Subaccount on a daily basis for the assumption by KILICO of certain mortality
and expense risks incurred in connection with the Policy, at an annual rate of
.90%. (See "Charges and Deductions--Mortality and Expense Risk Charge," page
14.)
No sales charge is deducted from any premium payment. However, if the
Policy is surrendered or if the Cash Value is applied under a Settlement Option,
a Surrender Charge on the lesser of premium paid in the first Policy Year or
Cash Value under the Policy will be deducted from the amount payable. The
Surrender Charge starts at 9% in the first Policy Year and reduces by 1% each
Policy Year so that there is no charge in the tenth and later Policy Years.
Subject to other considerations, the Owner may decide to reduce the potential
Surrender Charge by paying less initial premium. (See "Policy Benefits and
Rights--Surrender Privilege," page 13.)
No charges are currently made from the Separate Account for Federal, state
or other taxes. Should KILICO determine that such taxes may be imposed, it may
make deductions from the Separate Account to pay those taxes. (See "Federal Tax
Matters," page 17.)
3
<PAGE> 7
In addition, the Subaccounts of the Separate Account purchase shares of the
Fund. For fees and expenses of the Fund, see the prospectus for the Fund.
TAX TREATMENT UNDER CURRENT FEDERAL TAX LAW
The Cash Value, while it remains in the Policy, and the Death Benefit
should be subject to the same Federal income tax treatment as the cash value
under a conventional fixed benefit life insurance policy. Under existing tax
law, the Owner is generally not deemed to be in constructive receipt of the Cash
Value under a Policy until a distribution occurs through a loan or surrender. A
change of Owners, an assignment, a loan or a surrender of the Policy generally
will have tax consequences.
Death Benefits payable under the Policy should be completely excludable
from the gross income of the Beneficiary. As a result, the Beneficiary generally
will not be subject to income tax on the Death Benefit. (See "Federal Tax
Matters," page 17.)
FREE-LOOK PERIOD AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
The Owner is granted a period of time to examine a Policy and return it for
a refund. The applicable period of time will depend on the state in which the
Policy is issued; however, it will be at least 10 days from the date the Policy
is received by the Owner. (See "Policy Benefits and Rights--Free-Look Period and
Exchange Rights," page 13.)
The Owner may, while the Policy is in force, exchange it at any time after
its issue, for a non-variable permanent fixed benefit life insurance policy then
currently being offered by KILICO on the life of the Insured. Such policy would
be treated and taxed as a modified endowment contract. No evidence of
insurability will be required. During the first two years after the Policy Trade
Date, the amount of the new policy may be, at the election of the Owner, either
the initial Death Benefit or the same net amount at risk as the Policy on the
exchange date. After two years from the Policy Trade Date, the amount of the new
policy will be for the same net amount at risk as the Policy on the exchange
data. All Debt under the Policy must be repaid and the surrender of the Policy
is required before the exchange is made. The policy date and issue age will be
the same as existed under the Policy.
ILLUSTRATIONS OF SEPARATE ACCOUNT VALUES
SURRENDER VALUES AND DEATH BENEFITS
Tables in the Appendix illustrate the Separate Account Values, Surrender
Values and Death Benefits based upon certain hypothetical assumed rates of
return for the Separate Account and the charges deducted under the Policy.
KILICO AND THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company ("KILICO") is a stock life
insurance company organized under the laws of the State of Illinois. KILICO was
originally organized in 1947. KILICO is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kemper
Financial Companies, Inc. ("KFC"), a nonoperating holding company. KFC is a
subsidiary of Kemper Corporation ("Kemper"), another public financial services
holding company. KILICO offers life insurance and annuity products and is
admitted to do business in the District of Columbia and in all states except New
York.
On April 11, 1995, Kemper and an investor group comprised of Zurich
Insurance Company ("Zurich") and Insurance Partners, L.P. and Insurance Partners
Offshore (Bermuda), L.P. announced that they reached an agreement in principle
pursuant to which Kemper, including KILICO, would be acquired in a merger
transaction. Following the transaction, Zurich, or an affiliate, indirectly
would be the majority owner of Kemper, including KILICO. A definitive agreement
is expected in early May, subject to the completion of the investor group's due
diligence. Consummation of the transaction is subject to, among other things,
stockholder and regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to close early
in the fourth quarter of 1995.
KILICO Variable Separate Account (the "Separate Account") was established
by KILICO as a separate investment account on January 22, 1987. The Separate
Account will receive and invest the premiums under the Policy. In addition, the
Separate Account may receive and invest premiums for other variable life
insurance policies issued by KILICO.
The Separate Account is administered and accounted for as part of the
general business of KILICO, but the income, capital gains or capital losses of
the Separate Account are credited to or charged against the assets held in the
Separate Account, without regard to any other income, capital gains or capital
losses of
4
<PAGE> 8
any other separate account or arising out of any other business which KILICO may
conduct. The benefits provided under the Policy are obligations of KILICO.
The Separate Account is currently divided into five Subaccounts. Each
Subaccount invests exclusively in shares of one of the portfolios of the Fund.
Income and both realized and unrealized gains or losses from the assets of each
Subaccount generally are credited to or charged against that Subaccount without
regard to income, gains or losses from any other Subaccount of the Separate
Account or arising out of any business KILICO may conduct.
The Separate Account has been registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("Commission") as a unit investment trust under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"). Such registration does not involve
supervision by the Commission of the management, investment practices or
policies of the Separate Account or KILICO.
THE FUND
The Separate Account invests in shares of the Kemper Investors Fund, a
series type mutual fund registered with the Commission as an open-end,
diversified management investment company. Registration of the Fund does not
involve supervision of its management, investment practices or policies by the
Commission. The Fund is designed to provide an investment vehicle for variable
life insurance and variable annuity contracts. Shares of the Fund are sold only
to insurance company separate accounts. In addition to the Separate Account,
shares of the Fund may be sold to variable life insurance and variable annuity
separate accounts of insurance companies not affiliated with KILICO. It is
conceivable that in the future it may be disadvantageous for variable life
insurance separate accounts of companies unaffiliated with KILICO, or for both
variable life insurance separate accounts and variable annuity separate
accounts, to invest simultaneously in the Fund. Currently neither KILICO nor the
Fund foresees any such disadvantages to either variable life insurance or
variable annuity owners. Management of the Fund has an obligation to monitor
events to identify material conflicts between such owners and determine what
action, if any, should be taken. In addition, if KILICO believes that the Fund's
response to any of those events or conflicts insufficiently protects the Owners,
it will take appropriate action on its own.
The Separate Account invests in the following Portfolios of the Fund: Money
Market Portfolio, Total Return Portfolio, High Yield Portfolio, Equity Portfolio
and Government Securities Portfolio. The International and Small Capitalization
Equity Portfolios of the Fund are not currently available for investment through
the Separate Account. 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 income or losses of one Portfolio generally have no
effect on the investment performance of any other Portfolio.
The investment objectives and policies of the Fund's portfolios in which
the Separate Account invests are summarized below:
Money Market Portfolio: This Portfolio seeks to provide maximum current
income to the extent consistent with stability of principal. It will maintain a
dollar weighted average portfolio maturity of 90 days or less. This Portfolio
pursues its objective of maximum income and stability of principal by investing
in money market securities such as U.S. Treasury obligations, commercial paper,
and certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances of domestic and foreign
banks, including foreign branches of domestic banks, and will enter into
repurchase agreements.
Total Return Portfolio: This Portfolio seeks a high total return, a
combination of income and capital appreciation, by investing in a combination of
debt securities and common stocks. The Portfolio's investments will normally
consist of fixed-income and equity securities. Fixed-income securities will
include bonds and other debt securities and preferred stocks, some of which may
have a call on common stocks through attached warrants or a conversion
privilege. Equity investments normally will consist of common stocks and
securities convertible into or exchangeable for common stocks; however the
Portfolio may also make private placement investments (which are normally
restricted securities).
High Yield Portfolio: This Portfolio seeks to provide a high level of
current income by investing in fixed-income securities. It invests in U.S.
Government, corporate, and other notes and bonds paying high current income.
Equity Portfolio: This Portfolio seeks maximum appreciation of capital
through diversification of investment securities having potential for capital
appreciation. Current income will not be a significant factor. This Portfolio's
investments normally will consist of common stocks and securities convertible
into or
5
<PAGE> 9
exchangeable for common stocks; however, it may also make private placement
investments (which are normally restricted securities).
Government Securities Portfolio: This Portfolio seeks high current return
consistent with preservation of capital from a portfolio composed primarily of
U.S. Government securities. The Portfolio will also invest in fixed-income
securities other than U.S. Government securities, and will engage in options and
financial futures transactions. The Portfolio may purchase or sell portfolio
securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. The Portfolio's current
return is sought from interest income and net short-term gains on securities and
options and futures transactions. There are two broad categories of U.S.
Government securities: (1) direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury and (2)
obligations issued or guaranteed by agencies and instrumentalities of the United
States. Some obligations issued or guaranteed by agencies or instrumentalities
are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States (such as Government
National Mortgage Association "GNMA" Certificates) and others are backed
exclusively by an agency or instrumentality with limited rights of the issuer to
borrow from the U.S. Treasury (such as Federal National Mortgage Association
Bonds). U.S. Government securities may include "zero coupon" securities that
have been stripped by the U.S. Government of their unmatured interest coupons
and collateralized obligations issued or guaranteed by a U.S. Government agency.
There is no assurance that any of the Portfolios of the Fund will achieve
its stated objective. More detailed information, including a description of
risks involved in investing in each of the Portfolios, may be found in the
prospectus for the Fund, which must accompany or precede this Prospectus, and
the Fund's Statement of Additional Information available upon request from
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company, 1 Kemper Drive, Long Grove, Illinois
60049.
Kemper Financial Services, Inc., an affiliate of KILICO, ("KFS" or the
"Adviser") is the investment adviser to the Fund and manages its daily
investments and business affairs, subject to the policies established by the
trustees of the Fund. For its advisory services to the Portfolios, the Adviser
receives compensation monthly at annual rates equal to .50 of 1%, .55 of 1%, .60
of 1%, .60 of 1% and .55 of 1% of the average daily net asset values of the
Money Market Portfolio, the Total Return Portfolio, the High Yield Portfolio,
the Equity Portfolio, and the Government Securities Portfolio, respectively.
CHANGE OF INVESTMENTS
KILICO reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to make additions to,
deletions from, or substitutions for the shares held by the Separate Account or
that the Separate Account may purchase. KILICO reserves the right to eliminate
the shares of any of the portfolios of the Fund and to substitute shares of
another portfolio of the Fund or of another investment company, if the shares of
a portfolio are no longer available for investment, or if in its judgment
further investment in any portfolio becomes inappropriate in view of the
purposes of the Separate Account. KILICO will not substitute any shares
attributable to an Owner's interest in a Subaccount of the Separate Account
without notice to the Owner and prior approval of the Commission, to the extent
required by the 1940 Act or other applicable law. Nothing contained in this
Prospectus shall prevent the Separate Account from purchasing other securities
for other series or classes of policies, or from permitting a conversion between
series or classes of policies on the basis of requests made by Owners.
KILICO also reserves the right to establish additional subaccounts of the
Separate Account, each of which would invest in a new portfolio of the Fund, or
in shares of another investment company, with a specified investment objective.
New subaccounts may be established when, in the sole discretion of KILICO,
marketing needs or investment conditions warrant, and any new subaccounts may be
made available to existing Owners as determined by KILICO. KILICO may also
eliminate or combine one or more subaccounts, transfer assets, or it may
substitute one subaccount for another subaccount, if, in its sole discretion,
marketing, tax or investment conditions warrant. KILICO will notify all Owners
of any such changes.
If deemed by KILICO to be in the best interests of persons having voting
rights under the Policy, the Separate Account may be: (a) operated as a
management company under the 1940 Act; (b) deregistered under that Act in the
event such registration is no longer required; or (c) combined with other KILICO
separate accounts. To the extent permitted by law, KILICO may also transfer the
assets of the Separate Account associated with the Policy to another separate
account, or to the General Account.

THE POLICY
POLICY ISSUE
Before KILICO will issue a Policy, it must receive a completed application
and a full initial premium at its Home Office. A Policy ordinarily will be
issued only for Insureds Age 0 through 75 who supply satisfactory evidence of
insurability to KILICO. Acceptance of an application is subject to underwriting
by KILICO. KILICO reserves the right to decline an application for any reason.
After underwriting is complete and the Policy is delivered to the Owner,
insurance coverage under the Policy will be deemed to have begun as of the day
following the date of receipt of a completed application and the full initial
premium. (See "Premiums," below.) This date is the Policy Date.
PREMIUMS
Premiums are to be paid to KILICO at its Home Office. (See "Distribution of
Policies.") Checks ordinarily must be made payable to KILICO.
Initial Premium. The minimum initial premium that KILICO will accept under
a Policy is $5,000. KILICO reserves the right to increase or decrease this
amount for a class of Policies issued after some future date.
For a given initial premium, the minimum death benefit will depend upon the
Insurance Age, sex, and rate class of the Insured. The minimum death benefit for
a given initial premium will be consistent with the assumptions for the
Guideline Single Premium calculated under section 7702 of the Internal Revenue
Code (the "Code"). (See "Federal Tax Matters.")
The initial premium will be allocated to the KILICO General Account. It
will be credited with interest equivalent to the investment experience of the
Money Market Subaccount. This premium will remain in the KILICO General Account
until the Trade Date. On the Trade Date, the initial premium, plus interest,
will be allocated to the Money Market Subaccount. Additional applicable charges,
including the charge for the cost of insurance, will be deducted as of the
Policy Date. On the Trade Date, the Policy Cash Value will thus be the same as
if the initial premium had been allocated to the Money Market Subaccount on the
Policy Date. The Separate Account Value will remain in the Money Market
Subaccount until 15 days from the Trade Date of the Policy. At the end of the 15
day period, the Separate Account Value in the Money Market Subaccount will be
allocated to the Subaccounts elected by the Owner in the application for the
Policy.
The Policy Date is the date used to determine Policy Years and Monthly
Processing Dates. The Policy Date will be the date following receipt of the
application, except that if such date is the 29th, 30th, or 31st of a month, the
Policy Date will be the first of the following month. Acceptance is subject to
KILICO's underwriting rules, and KILICO reserves the right to reject an
application for any reason. The contestability period and suicide exclusion
period are measured from the Policy Date.
The Trade Date is the date when KILICO accepts the risk of providing
insurance coverage to the Insured. Insurance coverage will be limited to a
maximum of $200,000 net amount at risk by the temporary insurance provisions of
the application until the Trade Date. Monthly deductions and the crediting of
investment experience begin as of the Policy Date, even if the Trade Date of the
Policy is delayed due to underwriting requirements.
In the event an application is declined by KILICO, the initial premium will
be refunded, together with the earnings credited based on the investment
experience of the KILICO Money Market Subaccount.
The full initial premium is the only premium required to be paid under a
Policy. However, additional premiums may be necessary to keep the Policy in
force. (See "The Policy--Policy Lapse and Reinstatement.")
Additional Premiums. Subject to the premium guidelines established under
Federal tax law, additional premiums may be contributed while this Policy is in
force, including when necessary to prevent lapse. Upon request, KILICO will tell
the Owner whether an additional premium payment can be made and what its maximum
amount is. These premium payments will not increase the maximum possible
Surrender Charge. Except to prevent lapse, such an additional premium payment
must be at least $1,000. KILICO reserves the right to limit the ability to make
more than one additional premium payment in each Policy Year. Evidence of
insurability may be required if an additional premium payment would result in an
increase in the Death Benefit.
Several factors affect when additional premium payments may be made. For
example, assuming the maximum initial premium payment, the Policy Years in which
an Owner issue age 45 may make additional payments depend upon investment
experience. Based upon a hypothetical gross annual rate of return of 6% in the
selected Kemper Investors Fund Portfolio(s), an additional payment may first be
made in year
7
<PAGE> 11
13, and additional payments may be made each year thereafter subject to any
applicable underwriting requirements. A higher annual rate of return may cause
the Death Benefit to exceed the minimum guaranteed death benefit. (See "Policy
Rights and Benefits.") When this occurs additional payments are subject to
underwriting requirements.
Effect of Additional Premiums on Death Benefit. Any additional premiums
paid under a Policy may cause the Death Benefit to increase. (See "Policy
Benefits and Rights--Death Benefits.") An increase in the Death Benefit may
cause the cost of insurance charge to increase. (See "Charges and
Deductions--Cost of Insurance.")
ALLOCATION OF PREMIUMS AND SEPARATE ACCOUNT VALUE
Allocation of Premiums. The Owner allocates premiums to Subaccounts of the
Separate Account. The Owner must indicate the initial allocation in the Policy
application.
Fifteen days after the Trade Date (see "Policy Benefits and
Rights--Free-Look Period."), the Policy's Separate Account Value in the Money
Market Subaccount will be allocated to the Subaccounts of the Separate Account
in accordance with the Owner's allocation instructions in the application.
Additional premiums received will continue to be allocated in accordance with
the Owner's instructions in the application unless contrary written instructions
are received. Once a change in allocation is made, all future premiums will be
allocated in accordance with the new allocation, unless contrary written
instructions are received.
The Separate Account Value will vary with the investment experience of the
chosen Subaccounts. The Owner bears the entire investment risk.
Transfers. Separate Account Value may be transferred among the Subaccounts
of the Separate Account. One transfer of all or a part of the Separate Account
Value may be made within a fifteen day period. All transfers made during a
business day will be treated as one request.
Transfer requests must be in writing in a form acceptable to KILICO, or by
telephone authorization under forms authorized by KILICO. (See "General
Provisions--Written Notices and Requests.") The minimum transfer amount is $500.
No partial transfer may be made if the value of the Owner's remaining interest
in a Subaccount, from which amounts are to be transferred, would be less than
$500 after such transfer. Transfers will be based on the Accumulation Unit
Values next determined following receipt of valid, complete transfer
instructions by KILICO. The transfer provision may be suspended, modified or
terminated at any time by KILICO. KILICO disclaims all liability for acting in
good faith in following instructions which are given in accordance with
procedures established by KILICO, including requests for personal identifying
information, that are designed to limit unauthorized use of the privilege.
Therefore, the Owner would bear the risk of loss in the event of a fraudulent
telephone transfer.
POLICY LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT
Lapse. Lapse will occur when the Surrender Value of a Policy is
insufficient to cover the monthly deduction for the cost of insurance, and a
grace period expires without a sufficient payment being made. (See "Charges and
Deductions.")
A grace period of 61 days will be given to the Owner. It begins when notice
is sent that the Surrender Value of the Policy is insufficient to cover the
monthly deduction for the cost of insurance. Failure to make a premium payment
or loan repayment during the grace period sufficient to keep the Policy in force
for three months will cause the Policy to lapse and terminate without value.
If payment is received within the grace period, the premium or loan
repayment will be allocated to the Subaccounts in accordance with the most
current allocation instructions, unless otherwise requested. Amounts over and
above the amounts necessary to prevent lapse may be paid as additional premiums,
however, to the extent otherwise permitted. (See "The Policy--Additional
Premiums.")
KILICO will not accept any payment that would cause the total premium
payment to exceed the maximum payment permitted by the Code for life insurance
under the guideline premium limits. However, the Owner may voluntarily repay a
portion of Debt to avoid lapse. (See "Federal Tax Matters.")
If premium payments have not exceeded the maximum payment permitted by the
Code, the Owner may choose to make a larger payment than the minimum required
payment to avoid the recurrence of the potential lapse of coverage. The Owner
may also combine premium payments with Debt repayments.
The death benefit payable during the grace period will be the Death Benefit
in effect immediately prior to the grace period, less any Debt.
8
<PAGE> 12
Reinstatement. If a Policy lapses because of insufficient Cash Value to
cover the monthly cost of insurance deduction, and it has not been surrendered
for its Surrender Value, it may be reinstated at any time within five years
after the date of lapse. Tax consequences may affect the decision to reinstate.
Reinstatement is subject to:
(1) receipt of evidence of insurability satisfactory to KILICO;
(2) payment of a minimum premium sufficient to keep the Policy in force
three months; and
(3) payment or reinstatement of any Debt against the Policy which existed
at the date of termination of coverage.
The effective date of reinstatement of a Policy will be the Monthly
Processing Date that coincides with or next follows the date the application for
reinstatement is approved by KILICO. Suicide and incontestability provisions
will apply from the effective date of reinstatement. If the Policy has been in
force for two years during the lifetime of the Insured, it will be contestable
only as to statements made in the reinstatement application.
POLICY BENEFITS AND RIGHTS
DEATH BENEFITS
While the Policy is in force (see "Policy Lapse and Reinstatement--Lapse,"
above), the Death Benefit can never be less than the Death Benefit stated on the
Policy Schedule page ("guaranteed minimum death benefit").
The Death Benefit may vary with the Cash Value of the Policy, which depends
on the investment experience of the Separate Account Subaccounts to which a
Policy's Separate Account Value is allocated. An increase in the Cash Value may
increase the Death Benefit. However, while the Policy is in force, because the
Death Benefit will never be less than the guaranteed minimum death benefit, a
decrease in Cash Value may decrease the Death Benefit but never below the
guaranteed minimum death benefit.
The Death Benefit will be the greater of the guaranteed minimum death
benefit or the applicable multiple of the Cash Value. If investment experience
is sufficiently favorable, the Death Benefit may increase. Increases in the
Death Benefit are calculated by KILICO by multiplying the Cash Value by the
Death Benefit Factor. If the Cash Value were to drop because of unfavorable
investment experience, the Death Benefit would drop, but not below the Death
Benefit stated on the Policy Schedule page.
The guaranteed minimum death benefit is based on the 1980 Commissioner's
Standard Ordinary Smoker and Non-Smoker Mortality Tables [age last birthday]
(called the "1980 CSO Tables"), the Insured's sex, rate class and insurance age
at issue, and an assumed interest rate of 5.10 percent. The guaranteed minimum
death benefit is calculated by KILICO based on the applicable 1980 CSO Table and
the initial premium paid.
Representative guaranteed minimum death benefits are shown below:

Cash Value on Date of Death: 75,000 50,000
Death Benefit Factor: 1.5 1.5
</TABLE>
In Example A, the Death Benefit equals $112,500, i.e., the greater of
$98,225 or $112,500 (the Cash Value at the date of death of $75,000,
multiplied by the Death Benefit Factor of 1.5). This amount less any
outstanding Debt constitutes the Death Benefit which we would pay to
the Beneficiary.
In Example B, the Death Benefit is $98,225, i.e., the greater of
$98,225 or $75,000 (the Cash Value of $50,000 multiplied by the Death
Benefit Factor of 1.5).
The difference in the Cash Value assumed is based upon different assumed
investment experience.
For a Policy, male age 45, non-smoker, under the above assumptions the
Death Benefit payable would exceed the guaranteed minimum death benefit in the
tenth Policy Year, assuming a 12% gross annual investment rate of return. (See
Appendix at pages 58 and 59.) With a lesser gross annual investment rate of
return, the Death Benefit would not exceed the guaranteed minimum death benefit
until a later Policy Year.
All or part of the Death Benefit may be paid in cash or applied under a
settlement option. (See "General Provisions--Settlement Options.")
Effect on Cost of Insurance Charge. Any change in the Death Benefit will
affect the net amount at risk, which would, in turn, affect the Owner's cost of
insurance charge. (See "Charges and Deductions--Cost of Insurance Charge".)
Payment of Death Benefit. Death Benefits under the Policy will ordinarily
be paid within seven days after KILICO receives all documentation required for
such a payment. Payments may be postponed in certain circumstances. (See
"General Provisions--Postponement of Payments.")
BENEFITS AT MATURITY
If the Insured is living on the Policy anniversary following the Insured's
Age 95, KILICO will pay the Owner the Surrender Value of the Policy, on
surrender of the Policy to KILICO. On the Maturity Date, the Policy will
terminate and KILICO will have no further obligations under the Policy.
CASH VALUE
The Policy's Cash Value will reflect the investment experience of the
selected Subaccounts of the Separate Account, the frequency and amount of
premiums paid, transfers between Subaccounts, any General Account values, and
any charges assessed in connection with the Policy. An Owner may at any time
surrender the Policy and receive the Policy's Surrender Value, which equals the
Cash Value less surrender charges and Debt. (See "Surrender Privilege.") There
is no minimum guaranteed Cash Value.
10
<PAGE> 14
Calculation of Cash Value. The Cash Value of the Policy is the total of the
Policy's Separate Account Value and the Cash Value in the General Account. The
Cash Value is determined on each Valuation Date. It will first be calculated on
the Policy Date. On that date, the Cash Value equals the initial premium, less
the cost of insurance charge for the first Policy Month. (See "Charges and
Deductions.")
On any Valuation Date during the Policy Year, the Policy's Separate Account
Value in any Subaccount will equal:
(1) The Policy's Separate Account Value in the Subaccount at the end
of the preceding Valuation Period, multiplied by the Investment Experience
Factor (defined below) for the current Valuation Period; plus
(2) Any premium payments received during the current Valuation Period
which are allocated to the Subaccount; plus
(3) All amounts transferred to the Subaccount, either from another
Subaccount or from the General Account in connection with the repayment of
a Policy loan (see "Policy Benefits and Rights--Policy Loans," page 12)
during the current Valuation Period; minus
(4) All amounts transferred from the Subaccount during the current
Valuation Period; minus
(5) The pro rata portion of the monthly cost of insurance charge
attributable to the Subaccount if a Policy Month began during the Valuation
Period. (See "Charges and Deductions--Cost of Insurance Charge.")
There will also be Cash Value in the General Account if there is a Policy
loan outstanding. The General Account is credited with amounts transferred from
Subaccounts in connection with Policy loans. The General Account balance accrues
daily interest at an effective annual rate of 4.00% for values attributable to
premium and 6.00% for values attributable to amounts in excess of premium. (See
"Policy Benefits and Rights--Policy Loans.")
Accumulation Unit Value. Each Subaccount has a distinct Accumulation Unit
Value. When premiums or other amounts are allocated to a Subaccount, a number of
units are purchased based on the Accumulation Unit Value of the Subaccount at
the end of the Valuation Period during which the allocation is made. When
amounts are transferred out of, or deducted from, a Subaccount, units are
redeemed in a similar manner.
For each Subaccount, the Accumulation Unit Value was initially set at
$1.00. The Accumulation Unit Value for each subsequent Valuation Period is the
Investment Experience Factor for that Valuation Period multiplied by the
Accumulation Unit Value for the immediately preceding period. Each Valuation
Period has a single Accumulation Unit Value which applies for each day in the
period. The number of Accumulation Units will not change as a result of
investment experience. The Investment Experience Factor may be greater or less
than one; therefore, the Accumulation Unit Value may increase or decrease.
Investment Experience Factor. The investment experience of the Separate
Account is calculated by applying the Investment Experience Factor to the
Separate Account Value in each Subaccount during a Valuation Period. Each
Subaccount has its own distinct Investment Experience Factor. The Investment
Experience Factor of a Subaccount for any Valuation Period is determined by
dividing (1) by (2) and subtracting (3) from the result, where:
(1) is the net result of:
a. The net asset value per share of the investment held in the
Subaccount determined at the end of the current Valuation Period; plus
b. the per share amount of any dividend or capital gain distributions
made by the investment held in the Subaccount division, if the
"ex-dividend" date occurs during the current Valuation Period; plus or
minus
c. a charge or credit for any taxes reserved for the current valuation
period which we determine to 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 last prior Valuation Period;
11
<PAGE> 15
(3) is the factor representing the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge at an
annual rate of 0.90% of the assets of the Subaccount and compensates
KILICO for certain mortality and expense risks assumed. (See "Charges
and Deductions--Mortality and Expense Risk Charge.")
POLICY LOANS
On and after the first Monthly Processing Date after the Policy Date of the
Policy, the Owner may by written request to KILICO borrow all or part of the
Maximum Loan Amount of the Policy. The Maximum Loan Amount is 90% of the
Policy's Cash Value minus applicable surrender charges, subject to the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The amount of any new loan may not
exceed the Maximum Loan Amount less Debt on the date a loan is granted. The
minimum amount of a loan is $500. Any amount due an Owner under a Policy Loan
ordinarily will be paid within 7 days after KILICO receives a loan request at
its Home Office, although payments may be postponed under certain circumstances.
(See "Postponement of Payments," and "Federal Tax Matters.")
On the date a loan is made, Separate Account Value equal to the loan amount
will be transferred from the Separate Account to the loan account in the General
Account. Unless the Owner directs otherwise, the loaned amount will be deducted
from the Subaccounts in proportion to the values that each Subaccount bears to
the Separate Account Value of the Policy in all of the Subaccounts at the end of
the Valuation Period during which the request is received.
The loan interest will be assessed at an effective annual rate of 6.00%.
Interest not paid when due will be added to the loan amount due and bear
interest at the same rate.
Cash Value in the loan account within the General Account attributable to
the premium will earn no less than 4.00% annual interest. Cash Value in the loan
account within the General Account attributable to amounts in excess of premium
will earn no less than 6.00% annual interest. Such earnings will be allocated to
the General Account.
Loan Repayment. While the Policy is in force, policy loans may be repaid
at any time, in whole or in part. Payments will be treated as payment of
outstanding Debt unless the Owner indicates that the payments should be treated
otherwise. If otherwise permitted by the guideline premium limits of the Code
where there is no indication made, the portion of a payment that exceeds the
amount of any Debt will be treated as a premium payment. If not permitted by the
Code, the amount that exceeds any Debt will be refunded to the Owner.
At the time of repayment, Cash Value in the loan account of the General
Account equal to the amount of the repayment which exceeds the difference
between interest due and interest earned will be allocated to the Subaccounts
according to the Owner's current allocation instructions, unless otherwise
requested by the Owner. Loan repayments will be applied first to reduce that
portion of the loan account attributable to interest due on loaned premium;
second, to that portion of the loan account attributable to premium; third, to
that portion of the loan account attributable to interest due on loaned amounts
in excess of premium; and fourth to that portion of the loan account
attributable to loaned amounts in excess of premium. Transfers from the General
Account to the Separate Account as a result of the repayment of Debt will be
allocated at the end of the Valuation Period during which the repayment is
received. Such transfers will not be counted in determining the transfers made
within a 15 day period.
Effects of Policy Loan. Policy loans decrease Surrender Value and,
therefore, the amount available to pay the charges necessary to keep the Policy
in force. If Surrender Value on the day immediately preceding a Monthly
Processing Date is less than the monthly cost of insurance deduction for the
next month, KILICO will notify the Owner and any assignee of record. (See
"General Provisions--Written Notices and Requests.") This Policy will lapse and
terminate without value, unless a sufficient payment is made to KILICO within 61
days of the date such notice is sent to the Owner. (See "The Policy--Policy
Lapse and Reinstatement".)
Effect on Investment Experience. A Policy Loan will have an effect on the
Cash Value of a Policy. The collateral for the loan (the amount held in the
General Account) does not participate in the experience of the Subaccounts while
the loan is outstanding. If the amount credited to the General Account is more
than the amount that would have been earned in the Subaccounts, the Cash Value
will, and the Death Benefit may, be higher as a result of the loan. Conversely,
if the amount credited to the General Account is less than would have been
earned in the Subaccounts, the Cash Value, as well as the Death Benefit, may be
less.
12
<PAGE> 16
SURRENDER PRIVILEGE
While the Insured is living and the Policy is in force, the Owner may
surrender the Policy for its Surrender Value. To surrender the Policy, the Owner
must make written request to KILICO at its Home Office and return the Policy to
KILICO. The Surrender Value is equal to the Cash Value less any applicable
Surrender Charge and any Debt. (See "Surrender Charge," below.) Partial
surrenders are not permitted.
Surrender Charge. No sales charge is deducted from any premium payment.
However, a contingent deferred sales charge ("Surrender Charge") will be used to
cover expenses relating to the sale of the Policy including commissions paid to
sales personnel, and other promotion and acquisition expenses. If this Policy is
surrendered or if the Cash Value is applied under a Settlement Option (see
"General Provisions--Settlement Options"), the amount payable may reflect a
deduction for applicable Surrender Charges. A Surrender Charge will not be
assessed against Cash Values applied under a settlement option if the Policy has
been in force for five or more years and the settlement option elected provides
for benefit payments of at least five years. The amount of the Surrender Charge
will be calculated as a percentage of the lesser of premium paid in the first
Policy Year or Cash Value under the Policy. The charge decreases from 9% to 0%
depending on the length of time between the Policy Date and the date of
surrender or application under a settlement option, provided, however, that the
Surrender Charge will never exceed $60 per $1,000 of initial Death Benefit.
During the period from the Policy Date to the first Policy Anniversary, the rate
is 9%; on the first Policy Anniversary, the rate decreases to 8%, and on each of
the next eight Policy Anniversaries it will decrease an additional 1%. Thus,
there will be no Surrender Charge with respect to the premium paid in the first
Policy Year beginning on the ninth Policy Anniversary.
The applicable Surrender Charge will be determined based upon the date of
receipt of the written request for surrender.
FREE-LOOK PERIOD AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
The Owner may, until the end of the period of time specified in the Policy,
examine the Policy and return it for a refund. The applicable period of time
will depend on the state in which the Policy is issued; however, it will be at
least 10 days from the date the Policy is received by the Owner. The amount of
the refund will be the premium paid. An Owner seeking a refund should return the
Policy to KILICO at its Home Office or to the agent who sold the Policy.
The Owner may, while the Policy is in force, exchange it at any time after
its issue, for a non-variable permanent fixed benefit life insurance policy then
currently being offered by KILICO on the life of the Insured. Such policy would
be treated and taxed as a modified endowment contract. No evidence of
insurability will be required. During the first two years after the Policy Trade
Date, the amount of the new policy may be, at the election of the Owner, either
the initial Death Benefit or the same net amount at risk as the Policy on the
exchange date. After two years from the Policy Trade Date, the amount of the new
policy will be for the same net amount at risk as the Policy on the exchange
date. All Debt under the Policy must be repaid and the surrender of the Policy
is required before the exchange is made. The Policy Date and issue age will be
the same as existed under the Policy.
CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE
A monthly deduction is made from the Subaccounts for the cost of insurance
to cover KILICO's anticipated mortality costs. The cost of insurance charge is
deducted monthly in advance and is allocated among the Subaccounts in proportion
to the value of each Subaccount to the Separate Account Value.
The cost of insurance will be deducted on the Policy Date and on each
Monthly Processing Date thereafter. If the Monthly Processing Date falls on a
day other than a Valuation Date, the charge will be determined on the next
Valuation Date. The cost of insurance charge is determined by multiplying the
applicable cost of insurance rate (see below) by the "net amount at risk" for
each policy month. The net amount at risk is equal to the Death Benefit minus
the Cash Value on the Monthly Processing Date.
Cost of Insurance Rate. The monthly cost of insurance rates are based on
the sex, Insurance Age and rate class of the Insured. The monthly cost of
insurance rates will be determined by KILICO based on its expectations as to
future mortality experience. Any change in the schedule of rates will apply to
all individuals of the same class as the Insured. The cost of insurance rate may
never exceed those shown in the table of guaranteed maximum cost of insurance
rates in the Policy. The guaranteed maximum cost of
13
<PAGE> 17
insurance rates are based on the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary Smoker
and Non-Smoker Mortality Tables, published by the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners.
Rate Class. The rate class of an Insured will affect the cost of insurance
rate. KILICO currently places Insureds in standard rate classes and rate classes
involving a higher mortality risk. The cost of insurance rates for rate classes
involving a higher mortality risk are multiples of the standard rates. (See
"Charges and Deductions--Cost of Insurance Rate," above.)
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE
A daily charge is deducted from the Subaccounts of the Separate Account for
mortality and expense risks assumed by KILICO. This charge will be at an annual
rate of 0.90%. This rate is guaranteed not to increase for the duration of the
Policy. If these charges are insufficient to cover the risks and costs, any loss
or deficiency will fall on KILICO. Conversely, if the charges are more than
sufficient, the gain will accrue to KILICO, creating a profit which would be
available for any proper corporate purpose including, among other things,
payment of distribution expenses.
The mortality and expense risk assumed is that KILICO's estimates of
longevity and of the expenses incurred over the lengthy period the Policy may be
in effect--which estimates are the basis for the level of other charges KILICO
makes under the Policy--will not be correct.
OTHER CHARGES
Surrender Charge. If the Policy is surrendered or if the Cash Value is
applied under a Settlement Option, a Surrender Charge equal to the lesser of the
premium paid in the first Policy Year or the Cash Value under the Policy may be
imposed. The charge decreases from 9% to 0%, depending on the length of time
between the payment and the date of surrender or application under a Settlement
Option. Subject to other considerations, the Owner may decide to reduce the
potential Surrender Charge by paying less initial premium. The Surrender Charges
are intended to compensate KILICO for expenses in connection with the
distribution of the Policy. Under current assumptions KILICO anticipates
Surrender Charges will not fully cover distribution expenses. To the extent that
distribution expenses are not recovered from Surrender Charges, those expenses
may be recovered from other sources, including the cost of insurance and the
mortality and expense risk charges described above. Surrender Charges are
described in more detail under "Policy Benefits--Surrender Privilege."
Taxes. Currently, no charges are made against the Separate Account for
Federal, state or other taxes that may be attributable to the Separate Account.
KILICO may, however, in the future impose charges for Federal income taxes
attributable to the Separate Account. Charges for other taxes, if any,
attributable to the Policy may also be made. (See "Federal Tax Matters.")
Charges Against the Fund. Under the investment advisory agreement between
the Fund, on behalf of the Portfolios, and the Adviser, the Adviser provides
investment advisory services for the Portfolios. The Fund is responsible for the
advisory fee and all its other expenses. The investment advisory fee differs
with respect to each of the Portfolios of the Fund and is described beginning on
page 6 of this Prospectus. For more information concerning the investment
advisory fee and other charges against the Portfolios of the Fund, see the
prospectus for the Fund and the Statement of Additional Information available
upon request.
Reduction of Charges. KILICO may reduce certain charges and the minimum
initial premium in special circumstances that result in lower sales,
administrative, or mortality expenses. For example, special circumstances may
exist in connection with group or sponsored arrangements, sales to KILICO
policyowners, or sales to employees or clients of members of the Kemper group of
companies. The amounts of any reductions will reflect the reduced sales effort
and administrative costs resulting from, or the different mortality experience
expected as a result of, the special circumstances. Reductions will not be
unfairly discriminatory against any person, including the affected Owners and
owners of all other policies funded by the Separate Account.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
SETTLEMENT OPTIONS
The Owner, or Beneficiary at the death of the Insured, may elect to have
all of the Death Benefit or Surrender Value of this Policy paid in a lump sum or
have the amount applied to one of the Settlement Options. The minimum amount
that may be placed under a Settlement Option is $4,000 unless KILICO consents to
a lesser amount. Payments under these options will not be affected by the
investment
14
<PAGE> 18
experience of the Separate Account after proceeds are applied under a Settlement
Option. Payment will be made as elected by the payee on a monthly, quarterly,
semi-annual or annual basis. If the amount of any payment under a Settlement
Option is less than $100, KILICO may increase the interval between payments to a
quarterly, semi-annual or annual payment to make the payment at least $100.
The Cash Value on the day immediately preceding the date on which the first
benefit payment is due shall first be reduced by any applicable Surrender Charge
and Debt. The Surrender Value shall be used to determine the benefit payment.
For Settlement Options 1 through 5, the payment shall be based upon the
settlement option elected in accordance with the appropriate settlement option
table.
Option 1--Income For Specified Period. KILICO will pay income for the
period and payment mode elected but not less than 3 years nor more than 30
years.
Option 2--Life Income. KILICO will pay a monthly income to the payee during
the payee's lifetime. If this Option is elected, annuity payments terminate
automatically and immediately on the death of the annuitant 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. KILICO will pay a
monthly income for the guaranteed period elected and thereafter for the
remaining lifetime of the payee. The period elected may only be 5, 10, 15 or 20
years.
Option 4--Joint and Survivor Annuity. KILICO will pay the full monthly
income while both payees are living. Upon the death of either payee, the income
will continue during the lifetime of the surviving payee. The surviving payee's
income shall be the percentage of such full amount chosen at the time of
election of this option. Annuity payments terminate automatically and
immediately upon the death of the surviving payee without regard to the number
or total amount of payments received.
Option 5--Pension and Survivor Annuity. KILICO will pay the full monthly
income during the lifetime of the primary payee. Such payments will continue
whether or not the secondary payee is living. If the primary payee dies before
the secondary payee dies, the benefits will continue during the lifetime of the
secondary payee. However, such benefits will be for the percentage chosen for
such continuation at the time this option is elected. Annuity payments terminate
automatically and immediately upon the death of the surviving payee without
regard to the number or total amount of payments received.
Option 6--Income of Specified Amount. KILICO will pay the amount elected
for as long as the amount applied and interest will last. The minimum income
which may be elected is $10.00 per month for each $1,000 applied.
Option 7--Proceeds Left At Interest. KILICO will hold the amount applied on
deposit, subject to any withdrawal limits stated in the supplementary contract.
Interest will be paid on the amount deposited.
KILICO consent is necessary for any other payment methods.
Interest on funds held by KILICO under Options 1, 6 and 7 shall be at the
rate of 4% per year. The sums payable under Options 2, 3, 4 and 5 are based on
the 1971 Individual Annuity Mortality Tables, male and female, at 4% interest
per year, unless otherwise required by law. Interest shall be compounded
annually. Additional interest, if any, will be paid as determined by KILICO, in
its sole discretion.
POSTPONEMENT OF PAYMENTS
General. Payment of any amount due upon: (a) Policy termination at the
Maturity Date, (b) surrender of the Policy, (c) payment of any Policy loan, or
(d) death of the Insured, may be postponed whenever:
(1) The New York Stock Exchange is closed other than customary weekend
and holiday closings, or trading on the New York Stock Exchange is
restricted as determined by the SEC;
(2) The SEC by order permits postponement for the protection of
Owners; or
(3) An emergency exists, as determined by the SEC, as a result of
which disposal of securities of the Fund is not reasonably practicable or
it is not reasonably practicable to determine the value of the net assets
of the Separate Account.
Transfers may also be postponed under these circumstances.
15
<PAGE> 19
Payment Not Honored by Bank. The portion of any payment due under the
Policy which is derived from any amount paid to KILICO by check or draft may be
postponed until such time as KILICO determines that such instrument has been
honored by the bank upon which it was drawn.
THE CONTRACT
The Policy, any endorsements, and the application constitute the entire
contract between KILICO and the Owner. All statements made by the Insured or
contained in the application will, in the absence of fraud or misrepresentation,
be deemed representations and not warranties.
Only the President, the Secretary, or an Assistant Secretary of KILICO is
authorized to change or waive the terms of a Policy. Any change or waiver must
be in writing and signed by one of those persons.
MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX
If the age or sex of the Insured is misstated, the Cash Value and Death
Benefit will be recalculated from the Policy Date based on the correct sex and
age.
SUICIDE
Suicide by the Insured, while sane or insane, within two years from the
Policy Date of the Policy is a risk not assumed under the Policy. KILICO's
liability for such suicide is limited to the Cash Value less any Debt. When the
laws of the state in which a Policy is delivered require less than a two year
period, or return of premium paid, the period or amount paid will be as stated
in such laws.
ASSIGNMENT
No assignment of a Policy is binding on KILICO until it is received by
KILICO at its Home Office. KILICO assumes no responsibility for the validity of
the assignment. Any claim under an assignment is subject to proof of the extent
of the interest of the assignee. If this Policy is assigned, the rights of the
Owner and Beneficiary are subject to the rights of the assignee of record.
NONPARTICIPATING
This Policy will not pay dividends. It will not participate in any of
KILICO's surplus or earnings.
OWNER AND BENEFICIARY
The Owner may, at any time during the life of the Insured and while the
Policy is in force, designate a new Owner.
Primary and secondary Beneficiaries may be designated by the Owner in the
application. If changed, the primary or secondary Beneficiary is as shown in the
latest change filed with KILICO. If no Beneficiary survives the Insured, the
Insured's estate will be the Beneficiary. The interest of any Beneficiary may be
subject to that of an assignee.
Any change of Owner or Beneficiary must be made in writing in a form
acceptable to KILICO. The change will take effect as of the date the request is
signed. KILICO will not be liable for any payment made or other action taken
before the notice has been received at KILICO's Home Office.
RECORDS AND REPORTS
KILICO will maintain all records relating to the Separate Account. KILICO
will send Owners, at their last known address of record, an annual report
stating the Death Benefit, the Accumulation Unit Value, the Cash Value and
Surrender Value under the Policy, and indicating any additional premium
payments, transfers, Policy loans and repayments and charges made during the
Policy Year. Owners will also be sent annual and semi-annual reports for the
Fund to the extent required by the 1940 Act.
WRITTEN NOTICES AND REQUESTS
Any written notice or request to be sent to KILICO should be sent to its
Home Office, 1 Kemper Drive, Long Grove, Illinois 60049. The notice or request
should include the Policy number and the Insured's full name. Any notice sent by
KILICO to an Owner will be sent to the address shown in the application unless
an address change has been filed with KILICO.

<PAGE> 20
DISTRIBUTION OF POLICIES
The Policy is sold by licensed insurance representatives who represent
KILICO and 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 Policy is distributed
through the principal underwriter, Investors Brokerage Services, Inc. ("IBS"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of KILICO.
Gross commissions paid by KILICO on the sale of the Policy plus fees for
marketing services provided by affiliates of KILICO are not more than 6.75%. In
lieu of part of the 6.75%, a service fee at an annual rate of .25 of 1% on
assets which have been maintained and serviced may also be paid to the principal
underwriter or the licensed broker-dealers. Firms to which service fees and
commissions may be paid include affiliated broker-dealers. In addition to the
commissions described above, KILICO may, from time to time, pay or allow
additional promotional incentives, in the form of cash or other compensation, to
licensed broker-dealers that sell the Policies. In some instances, such other
incentives may be offered only to certain licensed broker-dealers that sell or
are expected to sell during specified time periods certain minimum amounts of
the Policy or other contracts issued by KILICO. The aggregate amount of gross
commissions paid by KILICO on the sale of the Policy in 1992 was $137,640, in
1993 was $12,700, and in 1994 was $25,764.
FEDERAL TAX MATTERS
The ultimate effect of Federal income taxes on the Policy, on settlement
options and on the economic benefit to the Owner, Beneficiary or payee depends
on KILICO's tax status, and upon the tax status of the individual concerned.
KILICO'S TAX STATUS
Under current interpretations of Federal income tax law, KILICO is taxed as
a life insurance company and the operations of the Separate Account are treated
as part of the total operations of KILICO. The operations of the Separate
Account do not materially affect KILICO's Federal income tax liability because
KILICO is allowed a deduction to the extent that net investment income of the
Separate Account is applied to increase Owners' equity. KILICO may incur state
and local taxes attributable to the Separate Account. At present, these taxes
are not significant. Accordingly, KILICO does not charge or credit the Separate
Account for Federal, state or local taxes. Thus, the Separate Account may
realize net investment income, such as interest, dividends or capital gains, and
reinvest such income all without tax consequences to the Separate Account.
If there is a material change in applicable Federal, state or local law,
however, charges or credits may be made to the Separate Account for Federal,
state or local taxes, or reserves for such taxes, if any, attributable to the
Separate Account. Such charges or credits will be determined independent of the
taxes actually paid by KILICO.
TAX STATUS OF THE POLICY
The Technical and Miscellaneous Revenue Act of 1988 altered the Federal
income tax treatment of loans and predeath distributions under life insurance
policies classified as "modified endowment contracts."
A Policy entered into on or after June 21, 1988 is considered a modified
endowment contract. Further, a Policy entered into before June 21, 1988 is
considered a modified endowment contract if the Death Benefit payable under the
Policy is increased on or after June 21, 1988 as a result of the payment of
additional premium and the Owner did not have a unilateral right before June 21,
1988 to obtain such increase without providing additional evidence of
insurability. Finally, a Policy is considered a modified endowment contract if
the Death Benefit increases by more than $150,000 over the Death Benefit on
October 20, 1988 and, on or after the date of such increase, there is a
"material change" to the Policy. A material change does not include an increase
in the Death Benefit, if the increase is attributable to (1) premiums necessary
to fund the Death Benefit as of October 20, 1988 increased by $150,000, or (2)
the crediting of earnings with respect to such premiums. An exchange of a policy
entered into before June 21, 1988 under section 1035 of the Internal Revenue
Code is considered a material change, but does not cause the new policy to be
treated as a modified endowment contract so long as no additional premiums are
paid.
A Policy treated as a modified endowment contract is subject to the
following rules:
17
<PAGE> 21
First, the amount of a Policy loan (or, if a Policy is assigned or pledged,
the amount of Cash Value assigned or pledged) is considered received by the
Owner and is included in the Owner's Federal gross income to the extent that the
Cash Value exceeds the Owner's investment in the Policy. The Owner's investment
in the Policy is the initial premium (or, if a Policy is issued in exchange for
another policy under section 1035 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Owner's
investment in the other policy), increased by additional premiums and by amounts
included in the Owner's gross income.
Second, all modified endowment contracts issued by KILICO (or an affiliate)
to the same Owner during a calendar year are to be aggregated and considered a
single contract for purposes of determining the amount includible in gross
income. Under this rule, amounts received by the Owner are includible in gross
income to the extent that total cash value exceeds total investment in such
aggregated contracts.
Third, the portion of any amount considered received by the Owner that is
includible in gross income is subject to an additional 10-percent tax. The
additional tax does not apply to any amount that is (1) received on or after the
date the Owner attains age 59 1/2; (2) distributed as a result of the Owner
becoming disabled; or (3) one of a series of substantially equal periodic
payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the life (of life
expectancy) of the Owner or the joint lives (or life expectancies) of the Owner
and the Owner's beneficiary.
The United States Congress may in the future consider additional
legislation that, if enacted, could adversely affect the tax treatment of life
insurance policies, including loans and other distributions and undistributed
appreciation. There is no way of predicting whether, when or in what form
Congress will enact any such proposal or any other legislation affecting life
insurance policies. Any such legislation could have retroactive effect
regardless of the date of enactment.
The Policy is a life insurance contract for Federal income tax purposes
under current Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code. As such, the Death
Benefit is excludable from the gross income of the Beneficiary. Also, the Owner
is not deemed to be in constructive receipt of the Cash Value, including
increments thereon, until a distribution occurs through a loan or actual
surrender. Interest paid on a loan under the Policy is not deductible by the
individual Owner. Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code imposes certain
conditions with respect to premiums received under the Policy. KILICO intends to
monitor the premiums to assure compliance.
If there is a surrender or exchange of a Policy, KILICO may be required to
withhold Federal income tax from the portion of the money received that is
includable in the Owner's Federal gross income. An Owner may, however, make an
election not to have such tax withheld but the election must be made before
KILICO makes payment.
Federal estate and state and local estate, inheritance and other tax
consequences of ownership or receipt of Policy proceeds depend on the
circumstances of each Owner and Beneficiary.
The Secretary of the Treasury has issued final regulations establishing
diversification provisions for variable life insurance contracts. Failure to
meet the diversification requirements could result in taxation of KILICO and
immediate taxation of the Owner of the Policy to the extent of appreciation on
the Owner's investment. KILICO will monitor compliance with these tests. A
special test exists for variable life insurance contracts that invest in United
States Treasury obligations. A separate account that issues variable life
insurance contracts need not meet the diversification test to the extent that it
invests in securities issued by the United States Treasury.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
Because of the complexity of the law in its application to a specific
individual, tax advice may be needed by a person contemplating purchase of a
Policy or the exercise of elections under a Policy. The above comments
concerning the Federal income tax consequences are not exhaustive and are not
intended as tax advice. Counsel and other competent advisers should be consulted
for more complete information. This discussion is based on KILICO's
understanding of Federal income tax laws as they are currently interpreted by
the Internal Revenue Service. No representation is made as to the likelihood of
continuation of these current laws and interpretations. KILICO also believes the
Policy meets other requirements concerning Owner control over investments.
However, the Secretary of Treasury has not issued regulations on this subject.
Such regulations, if adopted, could include requirements not included in the
Policy. We believe that such regulations if adopted would apply prospectively.
KILICO will make modifications to the Policy to comply with such regulations.
18
<PAGE> 22
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
On July 6, 1983, the Supreme Court held in Arizona Governing Committee v.
Norris that certain annuity benefits provided by employers' retirement and
fringe benefit programs may not vary between men and women on the basis of sex.
The Policy described in this Prospectus contains cost of insurance rates that
distinguish between men and women. Accordingly, employers and employee
organizations should consider, in consultation with legal counsel, the impact of
federal, state and local laws, including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the
Equal Pay Act, and Norris and subsequent cases on any employment-related
insurance or fringe benefit program before purchasing this Policy.
SAFEKEEPING OF THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT'S ASSETS
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 the shares of each
portfolio of the Fund by each of the Subaccounts.
VOTING RIGHTS
To the extent required by law, KILICO will vote the Fund's shares held in
the Separate Account at regular and special shareholder meetings of the Fund in
accordance with instructions received from persons having voting interests in
the corresponding Subaccounts of the Separate Account. If, however, the 1940 Act
or any regulation thereunder should be amended or if the present interpretation
thereof should change, and as a result KILICO determines that it is permitted to
vote the Fund's shares in its own right, it may elect to do so.
Owners of all Policies participating in each Subaccount shall have voting
rights with respect to that Subaccount, based upon each Owner's proportionate
interest in that Subaccount as measured by units.
Each person having a voting interest in a Subaccount will receive proxy
material, reports, and other materials relating to the appropriate Portfolio of
the Fund.
KILICO will vote shares of the Fund for which it has not received timely
instructions in proportion to the voting instructions that KILICO has received
with respect to all variable policies participating in a portfolio. KILICO will
also vote any Fund shares attributed to amounts it has accumulated in the
Subaccounts in the same proportions that Owners vote.
KILICO may, when required by state insurance regulatory authorities,
disregard voting instructions if the instructions require that the shares be
voted so as to cause a change in the subclassification or investment objective
of the Fund or of one or more of its portfolios or to approve or disapprove an
investment advisory contract for a Portfolio of the Fund. In addition, KILICO
itself may disregard voting instructions in favor of changes initiated by an
Owner in the investment policy or the investment adviser of a Portfolio of the
Fund if KILICO reasonably disapproves of such changes. A proposed change would
be disapproved only if the change is contrary to state law or prohibited by
state regulatory authorities, or if KILICO determines that the change would have
an adverse effect on its General Account in that the proposed investment policy
for a Portfolio may result in overly speculative or unsound investments. In the
event KILICO does disregard voting instructions, a summary of that action and
the reasons for such action will be included in the next annual report to
Owners.
STATE REGULATION OF KILICO
KILICO, a stock life insurance company organized under the laws of
Illinois, is subject to regulation by the Illinois Department of Insurance. An
annual statement is filed with the Director of Insurance on or before March 1st
of each year covering the operations and reporting on the financial condition of
KILICO as of December 31st of the preceding year. Periodically, the Director of
Insurance examines the liabilities and reserves of KILICO and the Separate
Account and certifies to their adequacy, and a full examination of KILICO's
operations is conducted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners
at least once every three years.
In addition, KILICO is subject to the insurance laws and regulations of
other states within which it is licensed to operate. Generally, the insurance
department of any other state applies the laws of the state of domicile in
determining permissible investments.

LEGAL MATTERS
All matters of Illinois law pertaining to the Policy, including the
validity of the Policy and KILICO's right to issue the Policy under Illinois
Insurance Law, have been passed upon by Debra P. Rezabek, Vice President,
General Counsel and Director of Government Affairs of KILICO. Katten Muchin &
Zavis, Washington, D.C., has advised KILICO on certain legal matters concerning
federal securities laws applicable to the issue and sale of Policies.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no legal proceedings to which the Separate Account is a party or
to which the assets of the Separate Account are subject. KILICO is not a party
in any litigation that is of material importance in relation to its total assets
or that relates to the Separate Account. With respect to KILICO, in 1992 the
Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission commenced an investigation into
certain of Kemper Corporation's ("Kemper's") real estate-related accounting
practices and related disclosures. KILICO's accounting and disclosure practices
are consistent with those of Kemper. Kemper fully cooperated throughout the
Staff's investigation which has now concluded. Kemper and the Staff have had
settlement discussions respecting this matter, and KILICO anticipates that this
matter will be resolved with respect to Kemper in 1995 with the filing of an
administrative proceeding.

EXPERTS
The financial statements of KILICO and the Separate Account have been
included in the Prospectus in reliance upon the reports of KPMG Peat Marwick
LLP, independent certified public accountants, appearing elsewhere herein, and
upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing. As
discussed in the notes to KILICO's consolidated financial statements, effective
January 1, 1994, KILICO changed its method of accounting for investment
securities to adopt the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Also, as discussed in the notes
effective January 1, 1993, KILICO changed its method of accounting for
impairment of loans receivable to adopt the provisions of SFAS 114, Accounting
by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, and changed its method of accounting for
income taxes to adopt the provisions of SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.
Further, as discussed in the notes, KILICO adopted the provisions of SFAS 106,
Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions in 1992.
Actuarial matters included in this prospectus have been examined by Steven
D. Powell, FSA as stated in the opinion filed as an exhibit to Post-Effective
Amendment No. 3 to the Registration Statement.
REGISTRATION STATEMENT
A registration statement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the
Policies. For further information concerning the Separate Account, KILICO and
the Policy, reference is made to the Registration Statement as amended with
exhibits. Copies of the Registration Statement are available from the
Commission.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements of KILICO that are included should be considered
only as bearing upon KILICO's ability to meet its contractual obligations under
the Policy. KILICO's financial statements do not bear on the investment
experience of the assets held in the Separate Account.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY:
We have audited the accompanying combined statement of assets and
liabilities and policy owners' equity of the KILICO Variable Separate Account as
of December 31, 1994, and the related combined statement of operations for the
year then ended, and the combined statements of changes in policy owners' equity
for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of the KILICO
Variable Separate Account as of December 31, 1994, and the combined results of
its operations for the year then ended, and the combined changes in its policy
owners' equity for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

KILICO VARIABLE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION.
KILICO Variable 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"). The
Separate Account receives and invests premiums under a variable life insurance
policy ("Policy"). The Separate Account is divided into five Subaccounts and
each Subaccount invests exclusively in a corresponding Portfolio of the Kemper
Investors Fund (The "Fund"), an open-end diversified management investment
company. The Fund has added two additional Subaccounts, the International
Portfolio and the Small Capitalization Equity Portfolio, which are not available
investment vehicles to policy owners of the Separate Account.
SECURITY VALUATION.
The investments are stated at current value which is based on the closing
bid price, net asset value, at December 31, 1994.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME.
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date when KILICO
accepts risks of providing insurance coverage to the insured). Dividends and
capital gains distributions are recorded as income on the ex-dividend date.
Realized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on an
identified cost basis.
ACCOUNT UNIT TRANSACTIONS.
Proceeds from a Policy are automatically allocated to the Money Market
Subaccount on the trade date for a 15 day period. At the end of this period, the
Separate Account value (cash value) may be allocated to other Subaccounts as
designated by the owner of the Policy.
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUATION.
On each day the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange") is open for
trading, the accumulation unit value is determined as of the earlier of 3:00
p.m. (Chicago time) or the close of the Exchange by dividing the total value of
each Subaccount's investments and other assets, less liabilities, by the number
of accumulation units outstanding in the respective Subaccount.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES.
The operations of the Separate Account are included in the Federal income
tax return of KILICO. Under existing Federal income tax law, investment income
and realized capital gains and losses of the Separate Account increase
liabilities under the contract and are, therefore, not taxed. Thus the Separate
Account may realize net investment income and capital gains and losses without
Federal income tax consequences.

=======
</TABLE>
The underlying investments and significant industry concentrations are
summarized below.
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO: This Portfolio invests primarily in short-term
obligations of major banks and corporations. At December 31, 1994, no industry
exceeded 20% of the Portfolio's assets.
TOTAL RETURN PORTFOLIO: This Portfolio's investments will normally consist
of fixed-income and equity securities. Fixed-income securities will include
bonds and other debt securities and preferred stocks. Equity investments
normally will consist of common stocks and securities convertible into or
exchangeable for common stocks, however, the Portfolio may also make private
placement investments (which are normally restricted securities). At December
31, 1994, no industry exceeded 20% of the Portfolio's assets.
HIGH YIELD PORTFOLIO: This Portfolio invests in fixed-income securities, a
substantial portion of which are high yielding fixed-income securities. These
securities ordinarily will be in the lower rating categories of recognized
rating agencies or will be non-rated, and generally will involve more risk than
securities in the higher rating categories. At December 31, 1994, 21.3% of the
Portfolio's assets were invested in the manufacturing, metals and mining
industry. No other industry exceeded 20% of the Portfolio's assets.
EQUITY PORTFOLIO: This Portfolio's investments normally will consist of
common stocks and securities convertible into or exchangeable for common stocks,
however, it may also make private placement investments (which are normally
restricted securities). At December 31, 1994, no industry exceeded 20% of the
Portfolio's assets.
GOVERNMENT SECURITIES PORTFOLIO: This Portfolio invests primarily in U.S.
Government Securities. The Portfolio will also invest in fixed-income securities
other than U.S. Government securities and will engage in options and financial
futures transactions. At December 31, 1994, the Portfolio had 89.6% of its
assets invested in U.S. Government obligations.
(3) TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
KILICO assesses a monthly charge to the Subaccounts for the cost of
insurance. The cost of insurance charge is allocated among the Subaccounts in
the proportion of each Subaccount to the Separate Account value. Cost of
insurance charges totaled approximately $150,000 for the year ended December 31,
1994. Additionally, KILICO assesses a daily charge to the Subaccounts for
mortality and expense risk assumed by KILICO at an annual rate of .90% of
assets.
Proceeds payable on the surrender of a Policy are reduced by the amount of
any applicable contingent deferred sales charge. During the year ended December
31, 1994, KILICO received contingent deferred sales charges of approximately
$19,900.
Kemper Financial Services, Inc., an affiliated company, is the investment
manager and principal underwriter of the Portfolios of the Fund which serve as
the underlying investments of the Separate Account.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Board of Directors
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company:
We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of Kemper Investors Life
Insurance Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholder's equity and cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1994.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Kemper
Investors Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 1994 and 1993,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years
in the three-year period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements,
effective January 1, 1994, the Company changed its method of accounting for
investment securities to adopt the provisions of the Financial Accounting
Standards Board's Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 115,
Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Also, as
discussed in the notes, effective January 1, 1993, the Company changed its
method of accounting for impairment of loans receivable to adopt the provisions
of SFAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, and changed its
method of accounting for income taxes to adopt the provisions of SFAS 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes. Further, as discussed in the notes, the Company
adopted the provisions of SFAS 106, Employers' Accounting for Postretirement
Benefits Other than Pensions in 1992.

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 and interest-sensitive life insurance
products marketed primarily through a network of financial institutions,
nonaffiliated and affiliated securities brokerage firms, insurance agents and
financial planners. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kemper Financial
Companies, Inc. ("KFC"), which in turn is a holding company formed by Kemper
Corporation ("Kemper"), the Company's ultimate parent.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. The statements include the accounts of
the Company on a consolidated basis. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated.
Life insurance revenue and expenses
Revenue for annuities and interest-sensitive life products consists of
investment income, and policy charges such as mortality, expense and surrender
charges. Expenses consist of benefits and interest credited to contracts, policy
maintenance costs and amortization of deferred insurance acquisition costs. Also
reflected in fees and other income are ceding commissions received as a result
of certain reinsurance transactions entered into by the Company during 1992.
(See the note captioned "Reinsurance" on page 50.)
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 products are being
amortized over the estimated contract life in relation to the present value of
estimated gross profits. Beginning in 1994, deferred insurance acquisition costs
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 stockholder's equity, net of income tax.
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 4 percent to 8.75 percent.
Future minimum guaranteed interest rates vary from 4 percent to 8.75 percent for
periods ranging from a portion of 1995 up to a portion of 1999 and are generally
3 percent to 4.5 percent thereafter. For contracts that have annuitized,
interest rates that are used in determining the present value of future payments
range principally from 3 percent to 11.25 percent.
Invested assets and related income
Investments in fixed maturities (bonds and redeemable preferred stocks) are
carried at market value at December 31, 1994 and 1993, as they are currently
considered available for sale. Short-term investments are carried at cost, which
approximates market value. Equity securities of nonrelated companies are
generally carried at market value using the closing prices as of the balance
sheet date derived from either a major securities exchange or the National
Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations system.
Mortgage loans are carried at their unpaid balance net of unamortized
discount and any applicable reserve. Other real estate-related investments net
of any applicable reserve and write-downs include certain bonds issued by real
estate finance or development companies; notes receivable from real estate
ventures; investments in real estate ventures carried at cost, adjusted for the
equity in the operating income or loss of such ventures; and real estate owned
carried primarily at fair value.
The Company evaluates its real estate-related assets (including accrued
interest) by estimating the probabilities of loss utilizing various projections
that include several factors relating to the borrower,

property, term of the loan, tenant composition, rental rates, other supply and
demand factors and overall economic conditions. Real estate reserves are
established when declines in collateral values, estimated in light of current
economic conditions and calculated in conformity with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 114, indicate a likelihood of loss. Generally, the
reserve is based upon the excess of the loan amount over the estimated future
cash flows from the loan discounted at the loan's contractual rate of interest
taking into consideration the effects of recourse to, and subordination of loans
held by, affiliated non-life realty companies. Changes in the Company's real
estate reserves and write-downs are included in revenue as realized investment
gain or loss.
The Company adopted SFAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan, in the fourth quarter of 1993. SFAS 114 defines "impaired loans" as loans
in which it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts
due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. In the fourth
quarter of 1994, the Company adopted SFAS 118, Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan-- Income Recognition and Disclosures. SFAS 118 amends SFAS
114, providing clarification of income recognition issues and requiring
additional disclosures relating to impaired loans. The adoption of SFAS 118 had
no effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations at or for
the year ended December 31, 1994.
At December 31, 1994 and 1993, total impaired loans amounted to $75.9
million and $179.4 million, respectively. Impaired loans with reserves were
$67.6 million and $91.9 million with corresponding reserves of $18.8 million and
$38.5 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. In determining
reserves relative to impaired loans, the Company also considered the deficit in
equity investments in real estate of $2.0 million and $35.0 million at December
31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
The Company had an average balance of $93.9 million and $158.0 million in
impaired loans for 1994 and 1993, respectively. Cash payments received on
impaired loans are generally applied to reduce the outstanding loan balance. At
December 31, 1994 and 1993, loans on nonaccrual status amounted to $274.6
million and $563.6 million, respectively. Impaired loans are generally included
in the Company's nonaccrual loans. The additional amount of nonaccrual loans in
excess of impaired loans represents the Company's consideration of market risks
associated with the real estate loan portfolio.
Upon adoption of SFAS 114, the Company determined that its previous
disclosures relating to impaired loans and recorded real estate reserves were
adequate. As such, restating prior quarters' operating results for the impact of
SFAS 114 was not considered necessary.
Policy loans are carried at their unpaid balance. Other invested assets
consist primarily of venture capital and a leveraged lease and are carried 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. Unrealized
gains or losses on revaluation of investments are credited or charged to
stockholder's equity net of deferred income tax.
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 securities, over the estimated life of the security. Such
amortization is included in net interest income. Amortization of the discount or
premium from mortgage-backed securities is recognized using a level effective
yield method which considers the estimated timing and amount of prepayments of
the underlying mortgage 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
mortgage-backed 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, real estate-related bonds and
other real estate loans where the likelihood of collection of interest is
doubtful.

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
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 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 market value.
Income tax
The operations of the Company are included in the consolidated federal
income tax return of Kemper. Income taxes receivable or payable are determined
on a separate return basis, and payments are received from or remitted to Kemper
pursuant to a tax allocation arrangement between Kemper and its subsidiaries,
including the Company. The Company generally receives a tax benefit for losses
to the extent such losses can be utilized in Kemper's consolidated tax return.
Upon adoption of SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, effective January
1, 1993, deferred taxes are provided on the temporary differences between the
tax and financial statement basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax
previously was provided on the tax effects of timing differences between
financial statement and taxable income.
Fixed assets
Fixed assets, consisting primarily of electronic data processing equipment,
are recorded at cost and are depreciated over the useful lives of the assets on
a straight-line method. At December 31, 1994 and 1993, the accumulated
depreciation on fixed assets was $20.8 million and $21.6 million, respectively.
Other
Certain reclassifications have been made in the consolidated financial
statements for the years 1993 and 1992 to conform to 1994 reporting.
(2) CASH FLOW INFORMATION
The Company defines cash as cash in banks and money market accounts.
Federal income tax paid to (refunded by) Kemper under the tax allocation
arrangement for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 amounted to
$(10.7) million, $4.2 million and $7.8 million, respectively.
Not reflected in the statement of cash flows are rollovers of mortgage
loans, other loans and investments totaling $57 million, $146 million and $229
million in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
Reflected in the statement of cash flows is the 1992 sale of $515.7 million
of reinsured life reserves for which the Company delivered an investment
portfolio that included $151.4 million of mortgage loans, $294.8 million of
fixed maturities and $69.5 million of other investments.
The Company also transferred its equity ownership interests in two limited
partnerships during 1994 and 1993. (See the note captioned "Related-Party
Transactions" on page 50.)

Upon default or indication of potential default by an issuer of fixed
maturity securities, the Company-owned issue(s) of such issuer would be placed
on nonaccrual status and, since declines in market 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,
determined in the manner described in the following paragraph, during the fiscal
quarter in which the impairment was determined to have become other than
temporary, unless such net realizable value exceeded the Company's carrying
value for such issue. 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.

At December 31, 1994, the Company had $216.2 million of mortgage loans and
other real estate-related investments (net of reserves and write-downs) that
were non-income producing for the preceding 12 months.
The Company evaluates its real estate-related assets (including accrued
interest) by estimating the probabilities of loss utilizing various projections
that include several factors relating to the borrower, property, term of the
loan, tenant composition, rental rates, other supply and demand factors and
overall economic conditions. Because the Company's real estate review process
includes estimates, there can be no assurance that current estimates will prove
accurate over time due to changing economic conditions and other factors.
The Company's real estate reserve was allocated as follows:

</TABLE>
In addition to the reserve, the Company's provision for real estate-related
losses (on assets held at the respective period end) included cumulative
write-downs (both by the Company and including the Company's share of
write-downs by joint ventures) totaling $96.6 million at December 31, 1994 and
$88.3 million at December 31, 1993. The 1994 decrease in reserves was primarily
due to write-downs which increased in 1994 as reserves for general real estate
risks were allocated to certain specific loans and equity investments in real
estate, particularly with respect to investments in land. In 1993, the Company's
real estate reserve and write-downs reflected declining valuations in the
Company's real estate portfolio, offset in part by the positive effects of
recourse to, and subordination of loans held by, affiliated non-life realty
companies. The declining valuations in 1993 reflected the Company's view, based
on economic data then available, that there will be slower than previously
anticipated economic growth in the future and therefore slower absorption of
real estate, particularly undeveloped land. Due to the Company's assessment for
slower economic growth, its plans with respect to certain projects were changed
to reflect deferrals of their commencement or completion.

(3) INVESTED ASSETS AND RELATED INCOME (CONTINUED)
The Company's real estate experience could continue to be adversely
affected by overbuilding and weak economic conditions in certain real estate
markets and by fairly restrictive lending practices by banks and other lenders.
Stagnant or worsening economic conditions in the areas in which the Company has
made loans, or additional adverse information becoming known to the Company
through its regular reviews or otherwise, could result in higher levels of
problem loans or potential problem loans, reductions in the value of real estate
collateral and adjustments to the real estate reserve. The Company's net income
and stockholder's equity could be materially reduced in future periods if real
estate market conditions remain stagnant or worsen in areas where the Company's
portfolio is located.
Current conditions in the real estate markets have been adversely affecting
the financial resources of certain of the Company's joint venture partners.
Every partner, however, remains active in the control of its respective joint
ventures. In evaluating a partner's ability to meet its financial commitments,
the Company considers the amount of all applicable debt and the value of all
properties within that portion of the Company's portfolio consisting of loans to
and investments in joint ventures with such partner.
The following table is a summary of the Company's troubled real
estate-related investments:

(1) These are real estate-related investments where the Company, based on known
information, has serious doubts about the borrowers' abilities to comply
with present repayment terms and which the Company anticipates may go into
nonaccrual, past due or restructured status.
(2) Interest more than 90 days past due but not on nonaccrual status.
(3) The Company does not accrue interest on real estate-related investments when
it judges that the likelihood of collection of interest is doubtful. The
1994 decrease in nonaccrual loans primarily reflected sales and foreclosures
as well as write-offs of certain fully reserved loans.
(4) The Company defines a "restructuring" of debt as an event whereby the
Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor's financial
difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor it would not otherwise
consider. Such concessions either stem from an agreement between the Company
and the debtor or are imposed by law or a court. By this definition,
restructured loans do not include any loan that, upon the expiration of its
term, both repays its principal and pays interest then due from the proceeds
of a new loan that the Company, at its option, may extend (roll over).
(5) Real estate owned is carried at fair value and includes deeds in lieu of
foreclosure and certain purchased property. Cumulative write-downs to fair
value were $67.5 million and $20.6 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.
(6) Total reserves and cumulative write-downs on properties owned at December
31, 1994 (excluding fair value adjustments to real estate owned) were 16.4
percent of total troubled real estate-related investments and 7.4 percent of
the Company's total real estate portfolio before reserves and write-downs.
(7) Equity investments in real estate are not defined as part of, and therefore
are not taken into account in calculating, total troubled real estate. The
Company's equity investments also involve real estate risks.
Based on the level of troubled real estate-related investments the Company
experienced in 1994 and 1993, the Company anticipates additional foreclosures
and deeds in lieu of foreclosure in 1995 and beyond. Any consolidation
accounting resulting from foreclosures would add the related ventures' assets

and senior third-party liabilities to the Company's balance sheet and eliminate
the Company's loans to such ventures.
Due to the adverse real estate environment affecting the Company's
portfolio in recent years, the Company has continued to devote significant
attention to its real estate portfolio, enhancing monitoring of the portfolio
and formulating specific action plans addressing nonperforming and potential
problem credits. Since 1991, the Company has intensified its attention to
evaluating the asset quality, cash flow and prospects associated with each of
its projects. The Company continues to analyze various potential transactions
designed to reduce both its joint venture operating losses and the amount of its
real estate-related investments. Specific types of transactions under
consideration (and previously utilized) include loan sales, property sales,
mortgage refinancings and real estate investment trusts. However, there can be
no assurance that such efforts will result in continued improvements in the
performance of the Company's real estate portfolio.
At December 31, 1994, securities carried at approximately $5.3 million were
on deposit with governmental agencies as required by law.
Proceeds from sales of investments in fixed maturities prior to maturity
were $910.9 million, $1.7 billion and $2.9 billion during 1994, 1993 and 1992,
respectively. Gross gains of $6.0 million, $80.4 million and $69.5 million and
gross losses of $55.9 million, $37.8 million and $101.7 million were realized on
sales of fixed maturities in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Gross unrealized
gains and losses on equity securities at December 31, 1994 amounted to $469
thousand and $649 thousand, respectively.

(4) UNCONSOLIDATED INVESTEES
At December 31, 1994, the Company, along with other Kemper subsidiaries,
directly held partnership interests in a number of real estate joint ventures.
Also, the Company and Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Company ("Lumbermens") and
certain subsidiaries of Kemper and Lumbermens are partners in a master limited
partnership (the "MLP") formed, effective January 1, 1993, to hold the equity
interests each partner's organization separately held previously in joint
ventures with Peter B. Bedford or his affiliates ("Bedford"), and in January
1994, the MLP acquired substantially all of Bedford's interests in such joint
ventures. Kemper and Lumbermens each own 50 percent of the MLP.
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.

(5) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Company generally strives to maintain a diversified invested asset
portfolio; however, certain concentrations of credit risk exist, including
mortgage-backed securities and real estate.
Approximately 49.2 percent of the Company's investment-grade fixed
maturities at December 31, 1994 were mortgage-backed securities. 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 material investments in
interest-only or other similarly volatile tranches of mortgage-backed
securities. The Company's mortgage-backed investments are generally of AAA
credit quality, and the markets for the Company's investments in mortgage-backed
securities have been and are expected to remain liquid.
Future investment income from mortgage-backed securities may be affected by
the timing of principal payments and the yields on reinvestment alternatives
available at the time of such payments. Due to the fact that the Company's
investments in mortgage-backed securities predominately date from recent years,
the current rise in interest rates is not expected to cause any material
unanticipated extension of the average maturities of these investments.
Prepayment activity on securities purchased at a discount is not expected to
result in any material losses to the Company because such prepayment would
generally accelerate the reporting of the discounts as investment income.
Prepayments resulting from a decline in interest rates related to securities
purchased at a premium would accelerate the amortization of premiums on such
purchases which would result in reductions of investment income related to such
securities. At December 31, 1994, the Company had unamortized discounts and
premiums of $20.4 million and $14.8 million, respectively, related to
mortgage-backed securities. Given the credit quality, liquidity and anticipated
payment characteristics of the Company's investments in mortgage-backed
securities, the Company believes that the associated risk can be managed without
material adverse consequences on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company's real estate portfolio is distributed by geographic location
and property type, as shown in the following two tables:

investments in California, Illinois and Texas, respectively, at December 31,
1994. The majority of the Illinois and Texas loans and other investments are
Prime-related. The majority of the California loans and other investments are
MLP-related. (See the note captioned "Unconsolidated Investees.") Real estate

although real estate market conditions there have continued to be worse than in
many other areas of the country. Northern California and Illinois currently
reflect some stabilization and improvement.
The Company had $184.9 million (3.8 percent of invested assets and cash) of
below investment-grade securities (including real estate-related bonds) totaling
$49.9 million, or 1.0 percent of invested assets and cash) at December 31, 1994.
At December 31, 1994, the Company held only one investment which exceeded
10 percent of stockholder's equity. This investment, amounting to $47.6 million,
is a joint venture mortgage loan to Lisle Park Plaza.
The following table shows the amounts of the Company's real estate
portfolio at December 31, 1994 which consisted of loans to or investments in

At December 31, 1994, the Company's real estate portfolio also included
$36.6 million of loans carried as equity investments in real estate related to
land for office and retail development and residential projects located in
Barcelona, Spain. Such equity investments in Spain totaled $31.9 million at
December 31, 1993, after accounting for fundings of $151.3 million during 1993.
The Spanish projects accounted for $29.4 million of net fundings during 1994 and
represented approximately 4.0 percent of the Company's real estate portfolio at
December 31, 1994. These investments, which began in the late 1980s, accounted
for $14.1 million of the December 31, 1994 off-balance-sheet commitments, of
which the Company expects to fund $7.1 million. Also during 1994, loans to the
Spanish projects totaling $24.7 million were sold at book value to an affiliated
real estate subsidiary of KFC.
Undeveloped land, including the Spanish projects, represented approximately
20.4 percent of the Company's real estate portfolio at December 31, 1994. To
maximize the value of certain land and other projects, additional development is
proceeding or is planned. Such development of existing projects may continue to
require substantial 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 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.

The Company adopted SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, as of January 1,
1993. SFAS 109 established new principles for calculating and reporting the
effects of income taxes in financial statements. SFAS 109 replaced the income
statement orientation inherent in APB Opinion 11 with a balance sheet approach.
Under the new approach, deferred tax assets and liabilities are generally
determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases
of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in
which the differences are expected to reverse. Under SFAS 109, the effect on
deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date. SFAS 109 allows
recognition of deferred tax assets if future realization of the tax benefit is
more likely than not, with a valuation allowance for the portion that is not
likely to be realized.
The implementation of SFAS 109 resulted in a one-time increase to earnings
of $2.4 million in the first quarter of 1993. Prior years' financial statements
have not been restated to apply the provisions of SFAS 109.
Upon adoption of SFAS 109, a valuation allowance was established 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 Kemper's federal
income tax return or a change in circumstances which causes the recognition of
the benefits to become more likely than not. During 1994, the valuation
allowance was increased by $85.3 million. This increase in the valuation
allowance is solely attributable to the decrease in the net deferred federal tax
liability from unrealized losses on investments.

(7) RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company received cash capital contributions from KFC of $82.5 million,
$90.0 million and $30.0 million during 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
In 1994 and 1993, the Company transferred the majority of its deficit
equity ownership interest in two limited partnerships to KFC resulting in an
increase of the Company's additional paid-in capital of $71 thousand and $9.2
million, respectively. The Company also paid a non-cash dividend of $530
thousand to KFC in December 1993, which represented the positive equity
ownership interests of the majority of one of its limited partnerships. Net
losses associated with the Company's ownership interests in these limited
partnerships amounted to $1.4 million, $5.4 million and $3.9 million in 1994,
1993 and 1992, respectively, and are included in the Company's consolidated
statement of operations.
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, 1994 and 1993, joint venture mortgage loans
totaled $351 million and $731 million, respectively, and during 1994, 1993 and
1992, the Company earned interest income on these joint venture loans of $22.0
million, $63.1 million and $116.3 million, respectively.
As of January 1, 1993, all of the Company's personnel are employees of
Federal Kemper Life Assurance Company ("FKLA"), an affiliated company. Prior to
January 1, 1993, the majority of the Company's personnel were employees of
another affiliated company, Kemper Financial Services, Inc. ("KFS"). The Company
is allocated expenses for the utilization of KFS and FKLA employees and
facilities and the information systems of Kemper Service Company ("KSvC") based
on the Company's share of administrative, legal, marketing, investment
management, information systems and operation and support services. During 1994,
1993 and 1992, expenses allocated to the Company from KFS and KSvC amounted to
$6.5 million, $3.1 million and $28.2 million, respectively. The Company also
paid to KFS investment management fees of $6.0 million, $6.7 million and $5.9
million during 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The Company paid Kemper Sales
Company $7.1 million in 1992 for services relating to the distribution of the
Company's products. In addition, expenses allocated to the Company from FKLA
during 1994, 1993 and 1992 amounted to $11.1 million, $13.1 million and $1.1
million, respectively.
During 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company sold certain mortgages and real
estate-related investments, net of reserves, amounting to approximately $154.0
million, $343.7 million and $144.8 million respectively, to KFC Portfolio Corp.,
an affiliated non-life realty company, in exchange for cash. No gain or loss was
recognized on the sales.
(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. 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.
In 1992 and 1991, the Company entered into 100 percent indemnity
reinsurance agreements ceding $515.7 million and $416.3 million, respectively,
of its fixed-rate annuity liabilities to FLA. FLA is a mutual insurance company
that shares common management with the Company and FKLA and certain common board
members with the Company and Kemper. The 1992 reinsurance agreement resulted in
the sale to FLA of approximately $500 million of certain assets, including $151
million of mortgage loans, while the 1992 agreement was all cash. As of December
31, 1994, the reinsurance recoverable related to the fixed-rate annuity
liabilities ceded to FLA amounted to approximately $643 million.
(9) POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS
The Company and FKLA sponsor a welfare plan that provides medical and life
insurance benefits to their 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
50
<PAGE> 54
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(9) POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS (CONTINUED)
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 discount rate used in determining the allocated postretirement benefit
obligation was 8 percent and 7 percent for 1994 and 1993, respectively. The
assumed health care trend rate used was based on projected experience for 1994
and 1995, 10 percent in 1996, gradually declining to 6 percent by the year 1999
and remaining at that level thereafter.
The status of the plan as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, was as follows:

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, 1994 and 1993 by $48 thousand and $69 thousand, respectively,
and the net postretirement health care interest and service costs for the years
ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 by $14 thousand and $19 thousand, respectively.
During 1994, the Company adopted certain severance-related policies to
provide benefits, generally limited in time, to former or inactive employees
after employment but before retirement. The effect of adopting these policies
was immaterial.
(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 none of the Company or 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 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

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(10) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (CONTINUED)
See the note captioned "Financial Instruments--Off-Balance-Sheet Risk"
below for the discussion regarding the Company's loan commitments and standby
financing agreements.
The Company is liable for guaranty fund assessments related to certain
unaffiliated insurance companies that have become insolvent during the years
1994 and prior. The Company's financial statements include provisions for all
known assessments that will 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. The Company is also
contingently liable for any future guaranty fund assessments related to
insolvencies of unaffiliated insurance companies, for which the life insurance
industry has been unable to estimate the cost to cover losses to policyholders.
No specific amount can be reasonably estimated for such insolvencies as of
December 31, 1994.
(11) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS--OFF BALANCE-SHEET RISK
The Company has continued to fund both existing projects and legal
commitments. At December 31, 1994, the Company had future legal loan commitments
and stand-by financing agreements totaling $376.1 million to support the
financing needs of various real estate investments. To the extent these
arrangements are called upon, amounts loaned would be secured 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. The Company presently expects to fund
approximately $96.5 million of these arrangements, along with providing capital
to existing projects. The total legal commitments, along with estimated working
capital requirements are considered in the Company's analysis of real
estate-related reserves and write-downs. The disparity between total legal
commitments and the amount expected to be funded relates principally to standby
financing arrangements that provide credit enhancements to certain tax-exempt
bonds, which the Company does not presently expect to fund. 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) DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company is party to derivative financial instruments in the normal
course of business for other than trading purposes to hedge exposures in foreign
currency fluctuations related to certain foreign fixed maturity securities held
by the Company. The following table summarizes various information regarding
these derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 1994 and 1993:

</TABLE>
The Company's hedges relating to foreign currency exposure are implemented
using forward contracts on foreign currencies. These are generally short
duration contracts with U.S. money-center banks. The Company records realized
and unrealized gains and losses on such investments in net income on a current
basis. The amounts of gain (loss) included in net income during 1994, 1993 and
1992 totaled $6.4 million, $(2.8) million and $(2.4) million, respectively.
(13) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value disclosures are required under SFAS 107. Such 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. (See the note captioned "Invested Assets and Related
52
<PAGE> 56
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(13) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
Income" on page 39.) 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: Fair values for fixed maturity securities carried at
market value were determined by using market quotations, or independent pricing
services that use prices provided by market makers or estimates of market values
obtained from yield data relating to instruments or securities with similar
characteristics, or fair value as determined in good faith by the Company's
portfolio manager, Kemper Financial Services, Inc.
Equity securities: Fair values for equity securities were based upon quoted
market prices.
Cash and short-term investments: The carrying amounts reported in the
consolidated balance sheet for these instruments approximate fair values.
Mortgage loans and other real estate-related investments: Fair values for
mortgage loans and other real estate-related investments were estimated on a
project-by-project basis. Generally, the projected cash flows of the collateral
are discounted using a discount rate of 10 to 12 percent. The resulting
collateral estimates were then used to determine the value of the Company's real
estate-related investments. The estimate of fair value should be used with care
given the inherent difficulty of 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 sheet 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.
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 1994 and 1993 to be 5.5 percent and 5.0 percent,
respectively, while the assumed average market crediting rate was 6.5 percent in
1994 and 5.25 percent in 1993.

(14) STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY--RETAINED EARNINGS
The maximum amount of dividends which can be paid by insurance companies
domiciled in the State of Illinois to shareholders without prior approval of
regulatory authorities is restricted if such dividend, together with other
distributions during the twelve preceding months would exceed the greater of ten
percent of statutory surplus as regards policyholders as of the preceding
December 31, or statutory net income for the preceding calendar year, then such
proposed dividend must be reported to the Director of Insurance at least 30 days
prior to the proposed payment date and may be paid only if not disapproved.
Illinois insurance laws also permit payment of dividends only out of earned
surplus, exclusive of most unrealized capital gains. The maximum amount of
dividends which can be paid by the Company in 1995 is currently $0. The Company
paid no cash dividends in 1994, 1993 or 1992.
The Company's net income (loss) and stockholder's equity as determined in

APPENDIX
ILLUSTRATIONS OF CASH VALUES,
CASH SURRENDER VALUES,
DEATH BENEFITS
The tables in this Prospectus have been prepared to help show how values
under a Policy change with investment experience. The tables illustrate how Cash
Values, Surrender Values (reflecting the deduction of Surrender Charges, if any)
and Death Benefits under a Policy issued on an insured of a given age would vary
over time if the hypothetical gross investment rates of return were a uniform,
after tax, annual rate of 0%, 6%, and 12%. If the hypothetical gross investment
rate of return averages 0%, 6%, or 12%, but fluctuates over or under those
averages throughout the years, the Cash Values, Surrender Values and Death
Benefits may be different.
The amounts shown for the Cash Value, Surrender Value and Death Benefit as
of each Policy Anniversary reflect the fact that the net investment return on
the assets held in the Subaccounts is lower than the gross return. This is
because of a daily charge to the Subaccounts for assuming mortality and expense
risks, which is equivalent to an effective annual charge of 0.90%. In addition,
the net investment returns also reflect the deduction of the Fund investment
advisory fees and other Fund expenses, approximated at 0.65%. The tables also
reflect the fact that KILICO makes monthly charges for providing insurance
protection. For each hypothetical gross investment rate of return, tables are
provided reflecting current and guaranteed cost of insurance charges.
Hypothetical gross average investment rates of return of 0%, 6% and 12%
correspond to the following approximate net annual investment rate of return of
- -1.55%, 4.45% and 10.45%, respectively. Cost of insurance rates vary by age, sex
and rating class and, therefore, are not reflected in the approximate net annual
investment rate of return above.
The values shown are for Policies which are issued as standard. Values for
Policies issued on a substandard basis would result in lower Cash Values,
Surrender Values and Death Benefits than those illustrated.
The tables also reflect the fact that no charges for federal, state or
other income taxes are currently made against the Separate Account. If such a
charge is made in the future, it will take a higher gross rate of return than
illustrated to produce the net after-tax returns shown in the tables.
Upon request, KILICO will furnish an illustration based on the proposed
Insured's age, sex and premium payment requested.

DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
AND
INVESTORS BROKERAGE SERVICES, INC.
THIS AGREEMENT is made on this day of , 19 between KEMPER
INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY ("KILICO"), on its own behalf and on behalf of
the KILICO Variable Separate Account (the "Account") and INVESTORS BROKERAGE
SERVICES, INC. ("IBS"). In consideration of the mutual covenants contained in
this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:
1. KILICO appoints IBS to promote the sale of variable life insurance
policies ("Policies") issued by KILICO and the Account. IBS will promote
such Policies in those states in which KILICO has variable policy authority
and in which the Policies are eligible for sale under applicable state law.
KILICO agrees to inform IBS of the status of such matters in each of these
states from time to time.
2. The solicitation of Policies shall be made by persons who are
registered representatives of National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. ("NASD") member broker-dealers who have a Selling Group Agreement with
IBS, which agreement shall encompass the promotion of the sale of the
Policies; provided that, no such registered representative shall be allowed
to participate in the solicitation of the Policies unless such person has
been appointed to solicit variable policies by KILICO in any state in which
such solicitation may occur.
3. All books and records maintained by KILICO in connection with the
sale of Policies will be maintained and preserved by KILICO in conformity
with the requirements of Rule 17a-3 and 17a-4 under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, to the extent that such requirements are applicable to the
Policies.
4. KILICO assumes full responsibility for the activities of all
persons engaged directly or indirectly in the promotion of the solicitation
of the Policies, including all sales representatives and associated persons
as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. IBS shall, in the course
of contracting with NASD member broker-dealers with which it has
agreements, require that such broker-dealers be responsible for the acts of
their registered representatives and associated persons.
5. Compensation to broker-dealers for the sale of Policies shall be
paid by KILICO through IBS. Any obligation by IBS to pay such compensation
will occur only following receipt of such amounts by IBS from KILICO.
6. IBS, when requested by KILICO, shall suspend its efforts to
effectuate sales of the Policies at any time KILICO shall request.
7. KILICO shall bear the expenses of printing and distributing
registration statements and prospectuses relating to the public sale of
Policies pursuant to this Agreement. KILICO agrees to bear the expenses of
qualification of the Policies for sale and of continuing the qualification
in the various states. KILICO shall bear the expenses of any sales
literature used by IBS or furnished by IBS to dealers in connection with
offering the Policies and the expenses of advertising in connection with
such offerings, except for customized pieces the cost of which shall be
mutually agreed to by KILICO and IBS.
8. IBS agrees that it will not use any sales material as defined under
the rules of the NASD or by the statutes or regulations of any state in
which the Policies may be solicited, unless such material has received
prior written approval by KILICO.
9. IBS, KILICO and the Account shall each comply with all applicable
provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, Securities Act of 1933
and of all Federal and state securities and insurance laws, rules and
regulations governing the issuance and sale of the Policies.
10. KILICO agrees to indemnify IBS against any and all claims,
liabilities and expenses including but not limited to reasonable attorneys
fees which IBS may incur under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
Securities Act of 1933 and all Federal and state securities and insurance
laws, rules and regulations governing the issuance and sale of the
Policies, common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon any alleged
untrue statements of material fact contained in any registration statement
or prospectus of the Account, or any alleged omission to state a material
fact therein, the omission of which makes any statement contained therein
misleading or of any alleged act or omission in
<PAGE> 2
connection with the offering, sale or distribution of the Policies by any
registered representatives or associated persons of a NASD member
broker-dealer which has an agreement with IBS. IBS agrees to indemnify
KILICO and the Account against any and all claims, demands, liabilities and
expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys fees, which
KILICO or the Account may incur, arising out of or based upon any act of
IBS or of any registered representative of an NASD member investment dealer
which has an agreement with IBS and is acting in accordance with KILICO's
instructions. KILICO acknowledges that IBS may similarly attempt to hold
such an NASD member broker-dealer responsible for the acts of registered
representatives and associated persons; and to the extent KILICO is
obligated to indemnify IBS under this Agreement, IBS agrees to assign its
rights against such broker-dealers to KILICO.
11. KILICO agrees to supply IBS with such information as may be
reasonably required by IBS including the "net accumulation unit value"
computed as of the time prescribed by and in compliance with all pertinent
requirements of the NASD and the Securities and Exchange Commission.
12. This Agreement shall be effective February 1, 1995. This Agreement
is subject to termination by either party upon thirty (30) days' prior
written notice to the other party. This Agreement may not be assigned by
either party without the written consent of the other party. This Agreement
shall be interpreted according to the laws of the State of Illinois.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been signed by the parties on the date
first above written.
