Re: Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company ("KILICO") and
KILICO Variable Separate Account ("Variable Separate Account")
(File No. 811-5025)
Commissioners:
Attached for filing, pursuant to Section 30(d) and Rule 30d-2 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"), is the most recent annual
report of the Variable Separate Account referenced above. The annual report
consists of cover letters from KILICO for each of the variable life insurance
products offered through the Variable Separate Account plus the most recent
individual annual reports of the mutual fund subaccount options available
through the Variable Separate Account. Because the most recent annual
reports of the funds have been filed with the SEC by their respective
Investment Managers/Advisers, KILICO is filing herewith only the cover
letter prepared by KILICO and hereby incorporates by reference the individual
annual reports of the underlying funds set forth below.
The Variable Separate Account includes the underlying fund options as
follows:
Kemper Investors Fund (File No. 811-5002)
American Skandia Trust (File No. 811-5186)
Please call the undersigned at 847-550-7740 if you have any questions
