Kemper Equity Portfolio Trusts, Series 7 (Utility Series) (the "Trust") was
formed with the investment objective of obtaining maximum capital appreciation
through investment in a fixed portfolio of equity securities of companies
diversified within the utility industry. The Securities selected are considered

approximate year term of the Trust. See "The Trust Portfolio." There is no
assurance that the Trust will achieve its objective.

<PAGE> 6
SUMMARY
THE TRUST FUND. Kemper Equity Portfolio Trusts, Series 7 (Utility Series) (the
"Trust Fund" or "Trust") is a unit investment trust registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
The Trust Fund initially consists of securities and delivery statements (i.e.,
contracts) to purchase common stocks issued by companies which the Sponsor
believes have the potential to achieve the objective of the Trust (the
"Securities"). For the criteria used by the Sponsor in selecting the Securities,
see "The Trust Portfolio--Securities Selection." The value of all portfolio
Securities and, therefore, the value of the Units may be expected to fluctuate
in value depending on the full range of economic and market influences affecting
corporate profitability, the financial condition of issuers and the prices of
equity securities in general and the Securities in particular. Maximum capital
appreciation is, of course, dependent upon several factors including, among
other factors, the financial condition of the issuers of the Securities (see
"The Trust Portfolio").
Series 7 was formed with the investment objective of obtaining maximum capital
appreciation through investment in a fixed portfolio of equity securities of
companies diversified within the utilities industry over the approximate
year term of the Trust.
Additional Units of the Trust may be issued at any time by depositing in the
Trust additional Securities or contracts to purchase additional Securities
together with irrevocable letters of credit or cash. As additional Units are
issued by the Trust as a result of the deposit of additional Securities by the
Sponsor, the aggregate value of the Securities in the Trust will be increased
and the fractional undivided interest in the Trust represented by each Unit will
be decreased. The Sponsor may continue to make additional deposits of Securities
into the Trust for a period of up to one year following the Initial Date of
Deposit, provided that such additional deposits will be in amounts which will
maintain, for the first 90 days, as closely as possible the same original
percentage relationship among the number of shares of each Security in the Trust
established by the initial deposit of Securities and, thereafter, the same
percentage relationship that existed on such 90th day. Thus, although additional
Units will be issued, each Unit will continue to represent approximately the
same number of shares of each Security, and the percentage relationship among
the shares of each Security in the Trust will remain the same. The required
percentage relationship among the Securities in the Trust will be adjusted to
reflect the occurrence of a stock dividend, a stock split or a similar event
which affects the capital structure of the issuer of a Security in the Trust but
which does not affect the Trust's percentage ownership of the common stock
equity of such issuer at the time of such event.
Each Unit of the Trust initially offered represents that undivided interest in
the Trust indicated under "Essential Information." To the extent that any Units
are redeemed by the Trustee or additional Units are issued as a result of
additional Securities being deposited by the Sponsor, the fractional undivided
interest in the Trust represented by each unredeemed Unit will increase or
decrease accordingly, although the actual interest in the Trust represented by
such fraction will remain unchanged. Units will remain outstanding until
redeemed upon tender to the Trustee by Unitholders, which may include the
Sponsor or the Underwriters, or until the termination of the Trust Agreement.
PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE. The Public Offering Price per Unit of the Trust Fund
during the initial offering period is based on the aggregate underlying offer
value (see "Public Offering of Units--Public Offering Price") of the Securities
in the Trust Fund plus or minus a pro rata share of cash, if any, in the Capital
Account held or owed by the Trust Fund, plus a sales charge of 4.0% (equivalent
to 4.167% of the net amount invested). After the initial public offering period,
the secondary market Public
2
<PAGE> 7
Offering Price will be equal to the aggregate underlying bid value of the
Securities in the Trust Fund, plus or minus a pro rata share of cash, if any, in
the Capital Account held or owned by the Trust Fund, plus a sales charge of 4.0%
of the Public Offering Price (equivalent to 4.167% of the net amount invested).
The sales charge is reduced on a graduated scale for sales involving at least
10,000 Units of the Trust or $100,000 and will be applied on whichever basis is
more favorable to the investor.
DISTRIBUTIONS OF INCOME AND CAPITAL. Distributions of dividends received by the
Trust and any funds in the Capital Account will be made quarterly. See
"Unitholders--Distributions to Unitholders."
REINVESTMENT. Each Unitholder of the Trust Fund may elect to have distributions
of income, capital gains and/or capital on their Units automatically invested in
shares of any Kemper front-end load mutual fund (other than those funds sold
with a contingent deferred sales charge). Such distributions will be reinvested
without charge to the participant on each applicable Distribution Date. See
"Unitholders--Distribution Reinvestment." A current prospectus for the
reinvestment fund selected, if any, will be furnished to any investor who
desires additional information with respect to reinvestment.
MARKET FOR UNITS. While under no obligation to do so, the Sponsor intends to,
and certain of the other dealers may, maintain a market for the Units of the
Trust and offer to repurchase such Units at prices subject to change at any time
which are based on the current underlying bid prices of the Securities in the
Trust Fund. If the supply of Units exceeds demand or if some other business
reason warrants it, the Sponsor and/or the dealers may either discontinue all
purchases of Units or discontinue purchases of Units at such prices. A
Unitholder may also dispose of Units through redemption at the Redemption Price
on the date of tender to the Trustee. See "Redemption--Computation of Redemption
Price."
REDEMPTION IN KIND. Upon redemption of Units of the Trust Fund a Unitholder
generally may request to receive in lieu of cash his share of each of the
Securities then held by the Trust Fund, if (1) he would be entitled to receive
at least $25,000 of proceeds or if he paid at least $25,000 to acquire the units
being tendered and (2) he has tendered for redemption prior to (see "Redemption
" and "Administration of the Trust--Amendment and Termination").
TERMINATION. No later than the date specified under the Liquidation Period in
"Essential Information," Securities will begin to be sold in connection with the
termination of the Trust Fund and it is expected that all Securities in the
Trust Fund will be sold by the Mandatory Termination Date. The Sponsor will
determine the manner, timing and execution of the sale of the underlying
Securities. See "Administration of the Trust--Amendment and Termination."
RISK FACTORS. For certain risk considerations related to the Trust Fund, see
"Risk Factors."

THE TRUST FUND
Kemper Equity Portfolio Trusts, Series 7 (Utility Series) is a unit investment
trust created under the laws of the State of Missouri pursuant to a trust
indenture dated the Initial Date of Deposit (the "Trust Agreement") between
Kemper Unit Investment Trusts, a service of Kemper Securities, Inc. (the
"Sponsor") and Investors Fiduciary Trust Company (the "Trustee").*
The portfolio contains common stocks issued by companies diversified within the
utilities industry. As used herein, the term "Securities" means the common
stocks initially deposited in the Trust Fund and described in the portfolio and
any additional common stocks acquired and held by the Trust Fund pursuant to the
provisions of the Trust Agreement.
With the deposit of the Securities in the Trust Fund on the Initial Date of
Deposit, the Sponsor has established a proportionate relationship among the
number of shares of each stock deposited in the portfolio. For a period of up to
one year following the Initial Date of Deposit, the Sponsor may deposit
additional Securities or contracts to purchase additional Securities along with
cash (or a bank letter of credit in lieu of cash) to pay for such contracted
Securities, maintaining, for the first 90 days, as closely as possible the same
original proportionate relationship among the number of shares of each stock in
the portfolio and, thereafter, the same percentage relationship that existed on
such 90th day. Thus, although additional Units will be issued, each Unit will
continue to represent approximately the same number of shares of each Security,
and the percentage relationship among the shares of each Security in the Trust
Fund will remain approximately the same. The required percentage relationship
among the Securities in the Trust Fund will be adjusted to reflect the
occurrence of a stock dividend, a stock split or a similar event which affects
the capital structure of the issuer of a Security in the Trust Fund but which
does not affect the Trust Fund's percentage ownership of the common stock equity
of such issuer at the time or such event.
On the Initial Date of Deposit, the Sponsor delivered to the Trustee Securities
or contracts for the purchase thereof for deposit in the Trust Fund. For the
Securities so deposited, the Trustee delivered to the Sponsor documentation
evidencing the ownership of that number of Units of the Trust Fund set forth
under "Essential Information."
THE TRUST PORTFOLIO
Securities Selection. At all times the Trust will hold at least 80% of its
assets in equity securities. In selecting Securities for the Trust, the
following factors, among others, were considered by the Sponsor: (a) the quality
of the Securities, (b) the price of the Securities relative to other similar
securities, and (c) the potential for capital appreciation.
In selecting the Securities for the Trust, the Sponsor has chosen equity
securities that in its view have the potential for capital appreciation.
Although there can be no assurance that such Securities will appreciate in value
over the life of the Trust, over time stock investments have generally
outperformed most other asset classes. However, it should be remembered that
common stocks carry greater risks, including the risk that the value of an
investment can decrease (see "Certain Investment Considerations" in this
section), and past performance is no guarantee of future results.

RISK FACTORS
General. The Trust Fund may be an appropriate investment vehicle for investors
who desire to participate in a portfolio of equity securities with greater
diversification than they might be able to acquire individually. An investment
in Units of the Trust Fund should be made with an understanding of the risks
inherent in an investment in equity securities, including the risk that the
financial condition of the issuers of the Securities may become impaired or that
the general condition of the stock market may worsen (both of which may
contribute directly to a decrease in the value of the Securities and thus in the
value of the Units) or the risk that holders of common stock have a right to
receive payments from the issuers of those stocks that is generally inferior to
that of creditors of, or holders of debt obligations issued by, the issuers and
that the rights of holders of common stock generally rank inferior to the rights
of holders of preferred stock. Common stocks are especially susceptible to
general stock market movements and to volatile increases and decreases in value
as market confidence in and perceptions of the issuers change. These perceptions
are based on unpredictable factors including expectations regarding government,
economic, monetary and fiscal policies, inflation and interest rates, economic
expansion or contraction, and global or regional political, economic or banking
crises.
7
<PAGE> 12
Utility Companies. An investment in Units of Series 7 should be made with an
understanding of the characteristics of the public utility industry and the
risks which such an investment may entail. General problems of such issuers
would include the difficulty in financing large construction programs in an
inflationary period, the limitations on operations and increased costs and
delays attributable to environmental considerations, the difficulty of the
capital market in absorbing utility debt, the difficulty in obtaining fuel at
reasonable prices and the effect of energy conservation. All of such issuers
have been experiencing certain of these problems in varying degrees. In
addition, Federal, state and municipal governmental authorities may from time to
time review existing, and impose additional, regulations governing the
licensing, construction and operation of nuclear power plants, which may
adversely affect the ability of the issuers of certain of the Securities in the
portfolio to make payments of principal and/or interest on such Securities.
Utilities are generally subject to extensive regulation by state utility
commissions which, for example, establish the rates which may be charged and the
appropriate rate of return on an approved asset base, which must be approved by
the state commissions. Certain utilities have had difficulty from time to time
in persuading regulators, who are subject to political pressures, to grant rate
increases necessary to maintain an adequate return on investment and voters in
many states have the ability to impose limits on rate adjustments (for example,
by initiative or referendum). Any unexpected limitations could negatively affect
the profitability of utilities whose budgets are planned far in advance. In
addition, gas pipeline and distribution companies have had difficulties in
adjusting to short and surplus energy supplies, enforcing or being required to
comply with long-term contracts and avoiding litigation from their customers, on
the one hand, or suppliers, on the other.
The Trust may include Securities which are issued by companies that own or
operate nuclear generating facilities. Governmental authorities may from time to
time review existing, and impose additional, requirements governing the
licensing, construction and operation of nuclear power plants. Nuclear
generating projects in the electric utility industry have experienced
substantial cost increases, construction delays and licensing difficulties.
These have been caused by various factors, including inflation, high financing
costs, required design changes and rework, allegedly faulty construction,
objections by groups and governmental officials, limits on the ability to
finance, reduced forecasts of energy requirements and economic conditions. This
experience indicates that the risk of significant cost increases, delays and
licensing difficulties remains present through the completion and achievement of
commercial operation of any nuclear project. Also, nuclear generating units in
service have experienced unplanned outages or extensions of scheduled outages
due to equipment problems or new regulatory requirements sometimes followed by a
significant delay in obtaining regulatory approval to return to service. A major
accident at a nuclear plant anywhere, such as the accident at a plant in
Chernobyl, could cause the imposition of limits or prohibitions on the
operation, construction or licensing of nuclear units in the United States.
Other general problems of the gas, water, telephone and electric utility
industry (including state and local joint action power agencies) include
difficulty in obtaining timely and adequate rate increases, difficulty in
financing large construction programs to provide new or replacement facilities
during an inflationary period, rising costs of rail transportation to transport
fossil fuels, the uncertainty of transmission service costs for both interstate
and intrastate transactions, changes in tax laws which adversely affect a
utility's ability to operate profitably, increased competition in service costs,
recent reductions in estimates of future demand for electricity and gas in
certain areas of the country, restrictions on operations and increased cost and
delays attributable to environmental considerations,
8
<PAGE> 13
uncertain availability and increased cost of capital, unavailability of fuel for
electric generation at reasonable prices, including the steady rise in fuel
costs and the costs associated with conversion to alternate fuel sources such as
coal, availability and cost of natural gas for resale, technical and cost
factors and other problems associated with construction, licensing, regulation
and operation of nuclear facilities for electric generation, including among
other considerations the problems associated with the use of radioactive
materials and the disposal of radioactive wastes, and the effects of energy
conservation. Each of the problems referred to could adversely affect the
ability of the issuers of any utility bonds in the Trust to make payments due on
these bonds.
In view of the uncertainties discussed above, there can be no assurance that any
company's share of the full cost of nuclear units under construction ultimately
will be recovered in rates or of the extent to which a company could earn an
adequate return on its investment in such units. The likelihood of a
significantly adverse event occurring in any of the areas of concern described
above varies, as does the potential severity of any adverse impact. It should be
recognized, however, that one or more of such adverse events could occur and
individually or collectively could have a material adverse impact on the
financial condition or the results of operations of a company.
Certain Investment Considerations. Holders of common stock incur more risk than
holders of preferred stocks and debt obligations because common stockholders, as
owners of the entity, have generally inferior rights to receive payments from
the issuer in comparison with the rights of creditors of, or holders of debt
obligations or preferred stock issued by the issuer. Holders of common stock of
the type held by the portfolio have a right to receive dividends only when and
if, and in the amounts, declared by the issuer's Board of Directors and to
participate in amounts available for distribution by the issuer only after all
other claims on the issuer have been paid or provided for. By contrast, holders
of preferred stock have the right to receive dividends at a fixed rate when and
as declared by the issuer's Board of Directors, normally on a cumulative basis,
but do not participate in other amounts available for distribution by the
issuing corporation. Cumulative preferred stock dividends must be paid before
common stock dividends and any cumulative preferred stock dividend omitted is
added to future dividends payable to the holders of cumulative preferred stock.
Preferred stocks are also entitled to rights on liquidation which are senior to
those of common stocks. Moreover, common stocks do not represent an obligation
of the issuer and therefore do not offer any assurance of income or provide the
degree of protection of capital of debt securities. Indeed, the issuance of debt
securities or even preferred stock will create prior claims for payment of
principal, interest, liquidation preferences and dividends which could adversely
affect the ability and inclination of the issuer to declare or pay dividends on
its common stock or the rights of holders of common stock with respect to assets
of the issuer upon liquidation or bankruptcy. Further, unlike debt securities
which typically have a stated principal amount payable at maturity (whose value,
however, will be subject to market fluctuations prior thereto), common stocks
have neither a fixed principal amount nor a maturity and have values which are
subject to market fluctuations for as long as the stocks remain outstanding. The
value of the Securities in the portfolios thus may be expected to fluctuate over
the entire life of the Trust Fund to values higher or lower than those
prevailing on the Initial Date of Deposit.
Whether or not the Securities are listed on a national security exchange, the
principal trading market for the Securities may be in the over-the-counter
market. As a result, the existence of a liquid trading market for the Securities
may depend on whether dealers will make a market in the Securities. There can be
no assurance that a market will be made for any of the Securities, that any
market for the Securities will be maintained or of the liquidity of the
Securities in any markets made. The
9
<PAGE> 14
investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission of illegal insider
trading in connection with corporate takeovers, and possible congressional
inquiries and legislation relating to this investigation, may adversely affect
the ability of certain dealers to remain market makers. In addition, the Trust
Fund is restricted under the Investment Company Act of 1940 from selling
Securities to the Sponsor. The price at which the Securities may be sold to meet
redemptions and the value of the Trust Fund will be adversely affected if
trading markets for the Securities are limited or absent.
Investors should note that additional Units may be offered to the public. This
may have an effect upon the value of previously existing Units. To create
additional Units the Sponsor will purchase additional Securities. Brokerage fees
incurred in purchasing such Securities will be an expense of the Trust. Thus,
payment of brokerage fees by the Trust will affect the value of every Unit and
the net income per Unit received by the Trust. In particular, Unitholders who
purchase Units during the primary offering period of the Units would experience
a dilution of their investment as a result of any brokerage fees paid by the
Trust during subsequent deposits of additional Securities.
Litigation and Legislation. From time to time Congress considers proposals to
reduce the rate of the dividends-received deduction. Enactment into law of a
proposal to reduce the rate would adversely affect the after-tax return to
investors who can take advantage of the deduction. Unitholders are urged to
consult their own tax advisers. Further, at any time after the Initial Date of
Deposit, litigation may be initiated on a variety of grounds, or legislation may
be enacted with respect to the Securities in the Trust Fund or the issuers of
the Securities. There can be no assurance that future litigation or legislation
will not have a material adverse effect on the Trust Fund or will not impair the
ability of issuers to achieve their business goals.
FEDERAL TAX STATUS
Federal Income Taxes. The following is a general discussion of certain of the
Federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of
the Units. The summary is limited to investors who hold the Units as "capital
assets" (generally, property held for investment) within the meaning of Section
1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Unitholders
should consult their tax advisers in determining the Federal, state, local and
any other tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of Units
in the Trust Fund.
In the opinion of Chapman and Cutler, special counsel for the Sponsor, under
existing law:
The Trust Fund is not an association taxable as a corporation for Federal
income tax purposes.
Each Unitholder will be considered the owner of a pro rata portion of each
of the Trust's assets for Federal income tax purposes under the Code, and
the income of the Trust will be treated as income of the Unitholders
thereof under the Code. Each Unitholder will be considered to have received
his pro rata share of income derived from each asset of the Trust Fund when
such income is received by the Trust Fund.
Each Unitholder will have a taxable event when a Security is disposed of
(whether by sale, exchange, liquidation, redemption or otherwise) or when
the Unitholder redeems or sells his Units. The cost of the Units to a
Unitholder on the date such Units are purchased is allocated among the
Securities held in the Trust Fund (in accordance with the proportion of the
fair market values of such Securities), subject to the adjustments
discussed below, in order to determine his tax basis for his pro rata
portion in each Security.
10
<PAGE> 15
Taxation of Dividends Received by the Trust Fund. For Federal income tax
purposes, a Unitholder's pro rata portion of dividends as defined by Section 316
of the Code paid by a corporation with respect to a Security are taxable as
ordinary income to the extent of such corporation's current and accumulated
"earnings and profits." A Unitholder's pro rata portion of dividends which
exceed such current and accumulated earnings and profits will first reduce a
Unitholder's tax basis in such Security and to the extent that such dividends
exceed a Unitholder's tax basis in such Security shall generally be treated as
capital gain. In general, any such capital gain will be short-term unless a
Unitholder has held his Units for more than one year. In addition, Unitholders
may recognize taxable income in an amount equal to their pro rata share of any
interest from U.S. Treasury obligations in which the Trustee is authorized to
invest between distribution dates as such interest accrues.
Dividends Received Deduction. A corporation that owns Units will generally be
entitled to a 70% dividends received deduction with respect to such Unitholder's
pro rata portion of dividends received by the Trust Fund (to the extent such
dividends are taxable as ordinary income, as discussed above), in the same
manner as if such corporation directly owned the Securities paying such
dividends. However, a corporation owning Units should be aware that Section 246
and 246A of the Code impose additional limitations on the eligibility of
dividends for the 70% dividends received deduction. These limitations include a
requirement that stock (and therefore Units) must generally be held at least 46
days (as determined under Section 246(c) of the Code). Proposed regulations have
been issued which address special rules that must be considered in determining
whether the 46 day holding requirement is met. Moreover, the allowable
percentage of the deduction will be reduced from 70% if a corporation owns
certain stock (or Units) the financing of which is directly attributable to
indebtedness incurred by such corporation. It should be noted that various
legislative proposals that would affect the dividends received deduction have
been introduced. Unitholders should consult their tax advisers with respect to
the limitations on and possible modifications to the dividends received
deduction.
Limitations on Deductibility of Trust Fund Expenses by Unitholders. Each
Unitholder's pro rata share of each expense paid by the Trust Fund is deductible
by the Unitholder to the same extent as though the expense had been paid
directly by him, subject to the following limitation. It should be noted that as
a result of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, certain miscellaneous itemized
deductions, such as investment expenses, tax return preparation fees and
employee business expenses will be deductible by an individual only to the
extent they exceed 2% of such individual's adjusted gross income. Unitholders
may be required to treat some or all of the expenses of the Trust Fund as
miscellaneous itemized deductions subject to this limitation.
Recognition of Taxable Gain or Loss Upon Disposition of Securities by the Trust
Fund or Disposition of Units. A Unitholder's portion of gain, if any, upon the
sale or redemption of Units or the disposition of Securities held by the Trust
Fund will generally be considered a capital gain except in the case of a dealer
or a financial institution and will be long-term if the Unitholder has held his
Units for more than one year. A Unitholder's portion of loss, if any, upon the
sale or redemption of Units or the disposition of Securities held by the Trust
Fund will generally be considered a capital loss (except in the case of a dealer
or a financial institution) and, in general, will be long-term if the Unitholder
has held his Units for more than one year. For taxpayers other than
corporations, net capital gains are subject to a maximum stated marginal tax
rate of 28%. However, it should be noted that legislative proposals are
introduced from time to time that affect tax rates and could affect relative
difference at which ordinary income and capital gains are taxed.
11
<PAGE> 16
The Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993 (the "Tax Act") raised tax rates on
ordinary income while capital gains remain subject to a 28% maximum stated rate.
Because some or all capital gains are taxed at a comparatively lower rate under
the Tax Act, the Tax Act includes a provision that would recharacterize capital
gains as ordinary income in the case of certain financial transactions that are
"conversion transactions" effective for transactions entered into after April
30, 1993. Unitholders should consult their tax advisers regarding the potential
effect of this provision on their investment in Units.
If the Unitholder disposes of a Unit, he is deemed thereby to have disposed of
his entire pro rata interest in all assets of the Trust Fund including his pro
rata portion of all of the Securities represented by the Unit.
Special Tax Consequences of Distributions In Kind Upon Redemption of Units. As
discussed in "Redemption," under certain circumstances a Unitholder tendering
Units for redemption may request a Distribution In Kind of Securities upon the
redemption of Units. As previously discussed, prior to the redemption of Units,
a Unitholder is considered as owning a pro rata portion of each of the Trust
Fund's assets for Federal income tax purposes. The receipt of a Distribution In
Kind upon the redemption of Units would be deemed an exchange of such redeeming
Unitholder's pro rata portion of each of the shares of stock and other assets
held by the Trust Fund in exchange for an undivided interest in whole shares of
stock and possibly cash.
There are generally three different potential tax consequences which may occur
under a Distribution In Kind with respect to each Security owned by the Trust
Fund. A "Security" for this purpose is a particular class of stock issued by a
particular corporation. If the Unitholder receives only whole shares of a
Security in exchange for his or her pro rata portion in each share of such
Security held by the Trust Fund, there is no taxable gain or loss recognized
upon such deemed exchange pursuant to Section 1036 of the Code. If the
Unitholder receives whole shares of a particular Security plus cash in lieu of a
fractional share of such Security, and if the fair market value of the
Unitholder's pro rata portion of the shares of such Security exceeds his tax
basis in his pro rata portion of such Security, taxable gain would be recognized
in an amount not to exceed the amount of such cash received, pursuant to Section
1031(b) of the Code. No taxable loss would be recognized upon such an exchange
pursuant to Section 1031(c) of the Code, whether or not cash is received in lieu
of a fractional share. Under either of these circumstances, special rules will
be applied under Section 1031(d) of the Code to determine the Unitholder's tax
basis in the shares of such particular Security which he receives as part of the
Distribution In Kind. Finally, if a Unitholder's pro rata interest in a Security
does not equal a whole share, he may receive entirely cash in exchange for his
pro rata portion of a particular Security. In such case, taxable gain or loss is
measured by comparing the amount of cash received by the Unitholder with his tax
basis in such Security.
Because the Trust Fund will own many Securities, a Unitholder who requests a
Distribution In Kind will have to analyze the tax consequences with respect to
each Security owned by the Trust Fund. The amount of taxable gain (or loss)
recognized upon such redemption will generally equal the sum of the gain (or
loss) recognized under the rules described above by the redeeming Unitholder
with respect to each Security owned by the Trust Fund. Redeeming Unitholders who
request a Distribution In Kind are advised to consult their tax advisers in this
regard.
Computation of the Unitholder's Tax Basis. Initially, a Unitholder's tax basis
in his Units will generally equal the price paid by such Unitholder for his
Units. The cost of the Units is allocated among the
12
<PAGE> 17
Securities held in the Trust Fund in accordance with the proportion of the fair
market values of such Securities on the date the Units are purchased in order to
determine such Unitholder's tax basis for his pro rata portion of each Security.
A Unitholder's tax basis in his Units and his pro rata portion of a Security
held by the Trust Fund will be reduced to the extent dividends paid with respect
to such Security are received by the Trust Fund which are not taxable as
ordinary income as described above.
General. Each Unitholder will be requested to provide the Unitholder's taxpayer
identification number to the Trustee and to certify that the Unitholder has not
been notified that payments to the Unitholder are subject to back-up
withholding. If the proper taxpayer identification number and appropriate
certification are not provided when requested, distributions by the Trust Fund
to such Unitholder (including amounts received upon the redemption of Units)
will be subject to back-up withholding. Distributions by the Trust Fund will
generally be subject to United States income taxation and withholding in the
case of Units held by non-resident alien individuals, foreign corporations or
other non-United States persons. Such persons should consult their tax advisers.
The foregoing discussion relates only to United States Federal income taxes;
Unitholders may be subject to state and local taxation in other jurisdictions.
Unitholders should consult their tax advisers regarding potential state or local
taxation with respect to the Units.
PUBLIC OFFERING OF UNITS
PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE. During the initial offering period, Units of the Trust
Fund are offered at the Public Offering Price (which is based on the aggregate
underlying offer value of the Securities in the Trust Fund and includes a sales
charge of 4.0% of the Public Offering Price which charge is equivalent to 4.167%
of the net amount invested) plus a pro rata share of any accumulated dividends
in the Income Account of the Trust. In the secondary market, Units are offered
at the Public Offering Price (which is based on the aggregate underlying bid
value of the Securities in the Trust Fund and includes a sales charge of 4.0% of
the Public Offering Price which charge is equivalent to 4.167% of the net amount
invested) plus a pro rata share of any accumulated dividends. Such underlying
value shall also include the proportionate share of any undistributed cash held
in the Capital Account of the Trust.
The sales charge per Unit of the Trust Fund in both the primary and secondary
market will be reduced pursuant to the following graduated scale:

</TABLE>

* The breakpoint sales charges are also applied on a dollar basis utilizing a
breakpoint equivalent in the above table of $10 per Unit and will be applied on
whichever basis is more favorable to the investor.
The reduced sales charges as shown on the tables above will apply to all
purchases of Units on any one day by the same purchaser from the same
Underwriter or dealer and for this purpose purchases of Units of the Trust Fund
will be aggregated with concurrent purchases of units of any other unit
13
<PAGE> 18
investment trust that may be offered by the Sponsor. Additionally, Units
purchased in the name of a spouse or child (under 21) of such purchaser will be
deemed to be additional purchases by such purchaser. The reduced sales charges
will also be applicable to a trust or other fiduciary purchasing for a single
trust estate or single fiduciary account.
The Sponsor intends to permit officers, directors and employees of the Sponsor
and its affiliates and registered representatives of selling firms to purchase
Units of the Trust Fund without a sales charge, although a transaction
processing fee may be imposed on such trades.
As indicated above, the initial Public Offering Price of the Units was
established by adding to the determination of the aggregate underlying value of
the Securities an amount equal to 4.167% of such value and dividing the sum so
obtained by the number of Units outstanding. Such underlying value shall include
the proportionate share of any cash held in the Capital Account. This
computation produced a gross underwriting profit equal to 4.0% of the Public
Offering Price. Such price determination as of the opening of business on the
Initial Date of Deposit was made on the basis of an evaluation of the Securities
in the Trust prepared by the Trustee. After the opening of business on the
Initial Date of Deposit, the Evaluator will appraise or cause to be appraised
daily the value of the underlying Securities as of 3:15 P.M. Central time on
days the New York Stock Exchange is open and will adjust the Public Offering
Price of the Units commensurate with such valuation. Such Public Offering Price
will be effective for all orders received at or prior to the close of trading on
the New York Stock Exchange on each such day. Orders received by the Trustee,
Sponsor or any dealer for purchases, sales or redemptions after that time, or on
a day when the New York Stock Exchange is closed, will be held until the next
determination of price.
The value of the Securities is determined on each business day by the Evaluator
based on the last offer prices during the initial offering period and on the
last bid prices during the secondary market and for redemptions on the day the
valuation is made for Securities listed on a national stock exchange or, if not
so listed, on the last offer (or bid as the case may be) prices on the
over-the-counter market or by taking into account the same factors referred to
under "Redemption--Computation of Redemption Price."
The minimum purchase in both the primary and secondary markets is 100 Units.
PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION OF UNITS. During the initial offering period, Units of the
Trust Fund will be distributed to the public at the Public Offering Price
thereof. Upon the completion of the initial offering, Units which remain unsold
or which may be acquired in the secondary market (see "Market for Units") may be
offered at the Public Offering Price determined in the manner provided above.
The Sponsor intends to qualify Units of the Trust Fund for sale in a number of
states. Units will be sold through dealers who are members of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and through others. Sales may be made to
or through dealers at prices which represent discounts from the Public Offering
Price as set forth in the table below. Certain commercial banks are making Units
of the Trust Fund available to their customers on an agency basis. A portion of
the sales charge paid by their customers is retained by or remitted to the banks
in the amounts shown in the table below. Under the Glass-Steagall Act, banks are
prohibited from underwriting Trust Fund Units; however, the Glass-Steagall Act
does permit certain agency transactions and the banking regulators have
indicated that these particular agency transactions are permitted under such
Act. In addition, state securities laws on this issue may differ from the
interpretations of Federal law expressed herein and banks and financial
institutions may be required to register as dealers pursuant to state law. The
Sponsor reserves the right to change the discounts set forth below from time to
time. In addition to such discounts, the Sponsor
14
<PAGE> 19
may, from time to time, pay or allow an additional discount, in the form of cash
or other compensation, to dealers employing registered representatives who sell,
during a specified time period, a minimum dollar amount of Units of the Trust
and other unit investment trusts underwritten by the Sponsor. At various times
the Sponsor may implement programs under which the sales force of a broker or
dealer may be eligible to win nominal awards for certain sales efforts, or under
which the Sponsor will reallow to any such broker or dealer that sponsors sales
contests or recognition programs conforming to criteria established by the
Sponsor, or participates in sales programs sponsored by the Sponsor, an amount
not exceeding the total applicable sales charges on the sales generated by such
person at the public offering price during such programs. Also, the Sponsor in
its discretion may from time to time pursuant to objective criteria established
by the Sponsor pay fees to qualifying brokers or dealers for certain services or
activities which are primarily intended to result in sales of Units of the Trust
Fund. Such payments are made by the Sponsor out of its own assets, and not out
of the assets of the Trust Fund. These programs will not change the price
Unitholders pay for their Units or the amount that the Trust Fund will receive
from the Units sold. The difference between the discount and the sales charge
will be retained by the Sponsor.

** Volume discounts will be given to firms who reach cumulative firm sales or
sales arrangement levels of at least $250,000 of the Trust from the Initial
Date of Deposit through , 1994 (assuming the primary offering
period continues through such date). After a firm has met the minimum
$250,000 volume level, volume discounts will be given on all trades
originated from or by that firm, including those placed prior to reaching the
$250,000 level, and will continue to be given during the entire initial
offering period.
The Sponsor reserves the right to reject, in whole or in part, any order for the
purchase of Units.
SPONSOR PROFITS. The Sponsor will receive gross sales charges equal to the
percentage of the Public Offering Price of the Units of the Trust Fund as stated
under "Public Offering Price." In addition, the Sponsor may realize a profit (or
sustain a loss) as of the Initial Date of Deposit resulting from the difference
between the purchase prices of the Securities to the Sponsor and the cost of
such Securities to the Trust Fund, which is based on the evaluation of the
Securities on the Initial Date of Deposit. Thereafter, on subsequent deposits
the Sponsor may realize profits or sustain losses from such deposits. See
"Portfolio." The Sponsor may realize additional profits or losses during the
initial offering period on unsold Units as a result of changes in the daily
market value of the Securities in the Trust Fund.
MARKET FOR UNITS
After the initial offering period, while not obligated to do so, the Sponsor
intends to, subject to change at any time, maintain a market for Units of the
Trust Fund offered hereby and to continuously offer to purchase said Units at
prices, determined by the Evaluator, based on the bid value of the underlying
Securities. To the extent that a market is maintained during the initial
offering period, the prices at
15
<PAGE> 20
which Units will be repurchased will be based upon the aggregate offering side
evaluation of the Securities in the Trust. The aggregate bid prices of the
underlying Securities are expected to be less than the related aggregate
offering prices (which is the evaluation method used during the initial public
offering period). Accordingly, Unitholders who wish to dispose of their Units
should inquire of their broker as to current market prices in order to determine
whether there is in existence any price in excess of the Redemption Price and,
if so, the amount thereof. The offering price of any Units resold by the Sponsor
will be in accord with that described in the currently effective prospectus
describing such Units. Any profit or loss resulting from the resale of such
Units will belong to the Sponsor. The Sponsor may suspend or discontinue
purchases of Units of the Trust Fund if the supply of Units exceeds demand, or
for other business reasons.
REDEMPTION
GENERAL. A Unitholder who does not dispose of Units in the secondary market
described above may cause Units to be redeemed by the Trustee by making a
written request to the Kemper Service Company, service agent for the Trustee at
P.O. Box 419430, Kansas City, Missouri 64141-6430 and, in the case of Units
evidenced by a certificate, by tendering such certificate to the Trustee,
properly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee. Unitholders must sign the request,
and such certificate or transfer instrument, exactly as their names appear on
the records of the Trustee and on any certificate representing the Units to be
redeemed. If the amount of the redemption is $25,000 or less and the proceeds
are payable to the Unitholder(s) of record at the address of record, no
signature guarantee is necessary for redemptions by individual account owners
(including joint owners). Additional documentation may be requested, and a
signature guarantee is always required, from corporations, executors,
administrators, trustees, guardians or associations. The signatures must be
guaranteed by a participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program
("STAMP") or such other signature guaranty program in addition to, or in
substitution for, STAMP, as may be accepted by the Trustee. A certificate should
only be sent by registered or certified mail for the protection of the
Unitholder. Since tender of the certificate is required for redemption when one
has been issued, Units represented by a certificate cannot be redeemed until the
certificate representing such Units has been received by the purchasers.
Redemption shall be made by the Trustee on the seventh calendar day following
the day on which a tender for redemption is received, or if the seventh calendar
day is not a business day, on the first business day prior thereto (the
"Redemption Date") by payment of cash equivalent to the Redemption Price for the
Trust Fund, determined as set forth below under "Computation of Redemption
Price," as of the evaluation time stated under "Essential Information," next
following such tender, multiplied by the number of Units being redeemed. Any
Units redeemed shall be cancelled and any undivided fractional interest in the
Trust Fund extinguished. The price received upon redemption might be more or
less than the amount paid by the Unitholder depending on the value of the
Securities in the Trust Fund at the time of redemption.
Under regulations issued by the Internal Revenue Service, the Trustee is
required to withhold a specified percentage of the principal amount of a Unit
redemption if the Trustee has not been furnished the redeeming Unitholder's tax
identification number in the manner required by such regulations. Any amount so
withheld is transmitted to the Internal Revenue Service and may be recovered by
the Unitholder only when filing a tax return. Under normal circumstances the
Trustee obtains the Unitholder's tax identification number from the selling
broker. However, any time a
16
<PAGE> 21
Unitholder elects to tender Units for redemption, such Unitholder should make
sure that the Trustee has been provided a certified tax identification number in
order to avoid this possible "back-up withholding." In the event the Trustee has
not been previously provided such number, one must be provided at the time
redemption is requested.
Any amounts paid on redemption representing unpaid dividends shall be withdrawn
from the Income Account of the Trust Fund to the extent that funds are available
for such purpose. All other amounts paid on redemption shall be withdrawn from
the Capital Account for the Trust Fund. The Trustee is empowered to sell
Securities for the Trust Fund in order to make funds available for the
redemption of Units of the Trust Fund. Such sale may be required when Securities
would not otherwise be sold and might result in lower prices than might
otherwise be realized. To the extent Securities are sold, the size and diversity
of the Trust Fund will be reduced.
Unitholders tendering Units for redemption may request a distribution in kind (a
"Distribution In Kind") from the Trustee in lieu of cash redemption. A
Unitholder may request a Distribution In Kind of an amount and value of
Securities per Unit equal to the Redemption Price per Unit as determined as of
the evaluation time next following the tender, provided that the tendering
Unitholder is (1) entitled to receive at least $25,000 of proceeds as part of
his or her distribution or if he paid at least $25,000 to acquire the units
being tendered and (2) the Unitholder has elected to redeem prior to the date
specified under "Redemption In Kind" on page 3 of this Prospectus. If the
Unitholder meets these requirements, a Distribution In Kind will be made by the
Trustee through the distribution of each of the Securities of the Trust in book
entry form to the account of the Unitholder's bank or broker-dealer at
Depository Trust Company. The tendering Unitholder shall be entitled to receive
whole shares of each of the Securities comprising the portfolio of the Trust and
cash from the Capital Account equal to the fractional shares to which the
tendering Unitholder is entitled. The Trustee shall make any adjustments
necessary to reflect differences between the Redemption Price of the Units and
the value of the Securities distributed in kind as of the date of tender. If
funds in the Capital Account are insufficient to cover the required cash
distribution to the tendering Unitholder, the Trustee may sell Securities. The
in kind redemption option may be terminated by the Sponsor on a date other than
that specified under "Redemption In Kind" on page 3 of this Prospectus upon
notice to the Unitholders prior to the specified date.
To the extent that Securities are redeemed in kind or sold, the size and
diversity of the Trust Fund will be reduced but each remaining Unit will
continue to represent approximately the same proportional interest in each
Security. Sales may be required at a time when Securities would not otherwise be
sold and may result in lower prices than might otherwise be realized. The price
received upon redemption may be more or less than the amount paid by the
Unitholder depending on the value of the Securities in the portfolio at the time
of redemption. Special Federal income tax consequences will result if a
Unitholder requests a Distribution In Kind (see "Federal Tax Status").
The right of redemption may be suspended and payment postponed (1) for any
period during which the New York Stock Exchange is closed, other than customary
weekend and holiday closings, or during which (as determined by the Securities
and Exchange Commission) trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted;
(2) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which
disposal by the Trustee of Securities is not reasonably practicable or it is not
reasonably practicable to fairly determine the value of the underlying
Securities in accordance with the Trust Agreement; or (3) for such other period
as the Securities and Exchange Commission may by order permit. The
17
<PAGE> 22
Trustee is not liable to any person in any way for any loss or damage which may
result from any such suspension or postponement.
COMPUTATION OF REDEMPTION PRICE. The Redemption Price per Unit (as well as the
secondary market Public Offering Price) will be determined on the basis of the
aggregate underlying bid value of the Securities in the Trust Fund. On the
Initial Date of Deposit, the Public Offering Price per Unit (which is based on
the underlying offering prices of the Securities and includes the sales charge)
exceeded the value at which Units could have been redeemed by the amount shown
under "Essential Information." While the Trustee has the power to determine the
Redemption Price per Unit when Units are tendered for redemption, such authority
has been delegated to the Evaluator which determines the price per Unit on a
daily basis. The Redemption Price per Unit is the pro rata share of each Unit in
the Trust Fund determined on the basis of (i) the cash on hand in the Trust Fund
or monies in the process of being collected and (ii) the value of the Securities
in the Trust Fund less (a) amounts representing taxes or other governmental
charges payable out of the Trust, (b) any amount owing to the Trustee for its
advances and (c) the accrued expenses of the Trust. The Evaluator may determine
the value of the Securities in the Trust Fund in the following manner: if the
Security is listed on a national securities exchange, the evaluation will
generally be based on the last bid price on the exchange (unless the Evaluator
deems the price inappropriate as a basis for evaluation). If the Security is not
so listed or, if so listed and the principal market for the Security is other
than on the exchange, the evaluation will generally be made by the Evaluator in
good faith based on the last bid price on the over-the-counter market (unless
the Evaluator deems such price inappropriate as a basis for evaluation) or, if a
bid price is not available, (1) on the basis of the current bid price for
comparable securities, (2) by the Evaluator's appraising the value of the
Securities in good faith at the bid side of the market or (3) by any combination
thereof. See "Public Offering of Units--Public Offering Price."
RETIREMENT PLANS
The Trust Fund may be well suited for purchase by Individual Retirement
Accounts, Keogh Plans, pension funds and other qualified retirement plans,
certain of which are briefly described below.
Generally, capital gains and income received under each of the foregoing plans
are deferred from Federal taxation. All distributions from such plans are
generally treated as ordinary income but may, in some cases, be eligible for
special income averaging or tax-deferred rollover treatment. Investors
considering participation in any such plan should review specific tax laws
related thereto and should consult their attorneys or tax advisers with respect
to the establishment and maintenance of any such plan. Such plans are offered by
brokerage firms and other financial institutions. The Trust will waive the
$1,000 minimum investment requirement for IRA accounts. The minimum investment
is $250 for tax-defined plans such as IRA accounts. Fees and charges with
respect to such plans may vary.
Individual Retirement Account--IRA. Any individual under age 70 1/2 may
contribute the lesser of $2,000 or 100% of compensation to an IRA annually. Such
contributions are fully deductible if the individual (and spouse if filing
jointly) are not covered by a retirement plan at work. The deductible amount an
individual may contribute to an IRA will be reduced $10 for each $50 of adjusted
gross income over $25,000 ($40,000 if married, filing jointly or $0 if married,
filing separately), if either an individual or their spouse (if married, filing
jointly) is an active participant in an employer maintained retirement plan.
Thus, if an individual has adjusted gross income over $35,000 ($50,000 if
married, filing jointly or $0 if married, filing separately) and if an
individual or their spouse is an active
18
<PAGE> 23
participant in an employer maintained retirement plan, no IRA deduction is
permitted. Under the Code, an individual may make nondeductible contributions to
the extent deductible contributions are not allowed. All distributions from an
IRA (other than the return of certain excess contributions) are treated as
ordinary income for Federal income taxation purposes provided that under the
Code an individual need not pay tax on the return of nondeductible
contributions, the amount includable in income for the taxable year is the
portion of the amount withdrawn for the taxable year as the individual's
aggregate nondeductible IRA contributions bear to the aggregate balance of all
IRAs of the individual.
A participant's interest in an IRA must be, or commence to be, distributed to
the participant not later than April 1 of the calendar year following the year
during which the participant attains age 70 1/2. Distributions made before
attainment of age 59 1/2, except in the case of the participant's death or
disability, or where the amount distributed is to be rolled over to another IRA,
or where the distributions are taken as a series of substantially equal periodic
payments over the participant's life or life expectancy (or the joint lives or
life expectancies of the participant and the designated beneficiary) are
generally subject to a surtax in an amount equal to 10% of the distribution. The
amount of such periodic payments may not be modified before the later of five
years or attainment of age 59 1/2. Excess contributions are subject to an annual
6% excise tax.
IRA applications, disclosure statements and trust agreements are available from
the Sponsor upon request.
Qualified Retirement Plans. Units of the Trust may be purchased by qualified
pension or profit sharing plans maintained by corporations, partnerships or sole
proprietors. The maximum annual contribution for a participant in a money
purchase pension plan or to paired profit sharing and pension plans is the
lesser of 25% of compensation or $30,000. Prototype plan documents for
establishing qualified retirement plans are available from the Sponsor upon
request.
Excess Distributions Tax. In addition to the other taxes due by reason of a
plan distribution, a tax of 15% may apply to certain aggregate distributions
from IRAs, Keogh plans, and corporate retirement plans to the extent such
aggregate taxable distributions exceed specified amounts (generally $150,000, as
adjusted) during a tax year. This 15% tax will not apply to distributions on
account of death, qualified domestic relations orders or amounts rolled over to
an eligible plan. In general, for lump sum distributions the excess distribution
over $750,000 (as adjusted) will be subject to the 15% tax.
The Trustee, Investors Fiduciary Trust Company ("IFTC"), has agreed to act as
custodian for certain retirement plan accounts. An annual fee of $12.00 per
account, if not paid separately, will be assessed by the Trustee and paid
through the liquidation of shares of the reinvestment account. An individual
wishing IFTC to act as custodian must complete a Kemper UIT/IRA application and
forward it along with a check made payable to Investors Fiduciary Trust Company.
Certificates for Individual Retirement Accounts can not be issued.
UNITHOLDERS
OWNERSHIP OF UNITS. Ownership of Units of the Trust Fund will not be evidenced
by certificates unless a Unitholder, the Unitholder's registered broker/dealer
or the clearing agent for such broker/dealer makes a written request to the
Trustee. Units are transferable by making a written request to the Trustee and,
in the case of Units evidenced by a certificate, by presenting and
19
<PAGE> 24
surrendering such certificate to the Trustee properly endorsed or accompanied by
a written instrument or instruments of transfer which should be sent by
registered or certified mail for the protection of the Unitholder. Unitholders
must sign such written request, and such certificate or transfer instrument,
exactly as their names appear on the records of the Trustee and on any
certificate representing the Units to be transferred. Such signatures must be
guaranteed as stated under "Redemption -- General."
Units may be purchased and certificates, if requested, will be issued in
denominations of one Unit or any multiple thereof, subject to the Trust's
minimum investment requirement of 100 Units or $1,000. Fractions of Units, if
any, will be computed to three decimal places. Any certificate issued will be
numbered serially for identification, issued in fully registered form and will
be transferable only on the books of the Trustee. The Trustee may require a
Unitholder to pay a reasonable fee, to be determined in the sole discretion of
the Trustee, for each certificate re-issued or transferred and to pay any
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with each such transfer or
interchange. The Trustee at the present time does not intend to charge for the
normal transfer or interchange of certificates. Destroyed, stolen, mutilated or
lost certificates will be replaced upon delivery to the Trustee of satisfactory
indemnity (generally amounting to 3% of the market value of the Units),
affidavit of loss, evidence of ownership and payment of expenses incurred.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO UNITHOLDERS. Income received by the Trust is credited by the
Trustee to the Income Account of the Trust. Other receipts are credited to the
Capital Account of the Trust. Income received by the Trust will be distributed
on or shortly after the 15th day of January, April, July and October of each
year on a pro rata basis to Unitholders of record as of the preceding record
date (which will be the first day of the related month). All distributions will
be net of applicable expenses. There is no assurance that any actual
distributions will be made since all dividends received may be used to pay
expenses. In addition, amounts from the Capital Account of the Trust, if any,
will be distributed at least annually in December to the Unitholders then of
record. Proceeds received from the disposition of any of the Securities after a
record date and prior to the following distribution date will be held in the
Capital Account and not distributed until the next distribution date applicable
to the Capital Account. The Trustee shall not be required to make a distribution
from the Capital Account unless the cash balance on deposit therein available
for distribution shall be sufficient to distribute at least $1.00 per 100 Units.
The Trustee is not required to pay interest on funds held in the Capital or
Income Accounts (but may itself earn interest thereon and therefore benefits
from the use of such funds). The Trustee is authorized to reinvest any funds
held in the Capital or Income Accounts, pending distribution, in U.S. Treasury
obligations which mature on or before the next applicable distribution date. Any
obligations so acquired must be held until they mature and proceeds therefrom
may not be reinvested.
The distribution to the Unitholders as of each record date will be made on the
following distribution date or shortly thereafter and shall consist of an amount
substantially equal to such portion of the Unitholders' pro rata share of the
dividend distributions then held in the Income Account after deducting estimated
expenses. Because dividends are not received by the Trust at a constant rate
throughout the year, such distributions to Unitholders are expected to
fluctuate. Persons who purchase Units will commence receiving distributions only
after such person becomes a record owner. Notification to the Trustee of the
transfer of Units is the responsibility of the purchaser, but in the normal
course of business such notice is provided by the selling broker-dealer.
20
<PAGE> 25
As of the first day of each month, the Trustee will deduct from the Income
Account of the Trust and, to the extent funds are not sufficient therein, from
the Capital Account of the Trust amounts necessary to pay the expenses of the
Trust (as determined on the basis set forth under "Trust Operating Expenses").
The Trustee also may withdraw from said accounts such amounts, if any, as it
deems necessary to establish a reserve for any governmental charges payable out
of the Trust. Amounts so withdrawn shall not be considered a part of the Trust's
assets until such time as the Trustee shall return all or any part of such
amounts to the appropriate accounts. In addition, the Trustee may withdraw from
the Income and Capital Accounts of the Trust such amounts as may be necessary to
cover redemptions of Units.
DISTRIBUTION REINVESTMENT. Kemper Financial Services, Inc. ("KFS"), an affiliate
of the Sponsor, is the investment manager and principal underwriter of several
front-end load mutual funds. Each Unitholder of the Trust Fund may elect to have
distributions of capital (including capital gains, if any) or dividends or both
automatically invested without charge in shares of any one of these funds, other
than those Kemper-advised mutual funds sold with a contingent deferred sales
charge. Since the portfolio securities and investment objectives of such
Kemper-advised mutual funds generally will differ significantly from those of
the Trust Fund, Unitholders should carefully consider the consequences before
selecting such mutual funds for reinvestment. Detailed information with respect
to the investment objectives and the management of such mutual funds is
contained in their respective prospectuses, which can be obtained from the
Sponsor upon request. An investor should read the prospectus of the reinvestment
fund selected prior to making the election to reinvest. Unitholders who desire
to have such distributions automatically reinvested should inform their broker
at the time of purchase or should file with the Program Agent referred to below
a written notice of election.
Unitholders who are receiving distributions in cash may elect to participate in
distribution reinvestment by filing with the Program Agent an election to have
such distributions reinvested without charge. Such election must be received by
the Program Agent at least ten days prior to the Record Date applicable to any
distribution in order to be in effect for such Record Date. Any such election
shall remain in effect until a subsequent notice is received by the Program
Agent. See "Unitholders--Distributions to Unitholders."
The Program Agent is Investors Fiduciary Trust Company. All inquiries concerning
participation in distribution reinvestment should be directed to the Kemper
Service Company, service agent for the Program Agent at P.O. Box 419430, Kansas
City, Missouri 64141-6430, telephone (800) 422-2848.
STATEMENTS TO UNITHOLDERS. With each distribution, the Trustee will furnish or
cause to be furnished to each Unitholder a statement of the amount of income and
the amount of other receipts, if any, which are being distributed, expressed in
each case as a dollar amount per Unit.
The accounts of the Trust Fund are required to be audited annually, at the Trust
Fund's expense, by independent public accountants designated by such Sponsor,
unless the Sponsor determines that such an audit would not be in the best
interest of the Unitholders of the Trust Fund. The accountants' report will be
furnished by the Trustee to any Unitholder of the Trust Fund upon written
request. Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year,
the Trustee shall furnish to
21
<PAGE> 26
each person who at any time during the calendar year was a Unitholder of the
Trust Fund a statement, covering the calendar year, setting forth for the Trust
Fund:
A. As to the Income Account:
1. Income received;
2. Deductions for applicable taxes and for fees and expenses of the Trust and
for redemptions of Units, if any; and
3. The balance remaining after such distributions and deductions, expressed in
each case both as a total dollar amount and as a dollar amount representing the
pro rata share of each Unit outstanding on the last business day of such
calendar year; and
B. As to the Capital Account:
1. The dates of disposition of any Securities (other than pursuant to
Distribution In Kind) and the net proceeds received therefrom;
2. The results of Distributions In Kind in connection with redemptions of Units,
if any;
3. Deductions for payment of applicable taxes and fees and expenses of the Trust
held for distribution to Unitholders of record as of a date prior to the
determination; and
4. The balance remaining after such distributions and deductions expressed both
as a total dollar amount and as a dollar amount representing the pro rata share
of each Unit outstanding on the last business day of such calendar year; and
C. The following information:
1. A list of the Securities as of the last business day of such calendar year;
2. The number of Units outstanding on the last business day of such calendar
year;
3. The Redemption Price based on the last evaluation made during such calendar
year;
4. The amount actually distributed during such calendar year from the Income and
Capital Accounts separately stated, expressed both as total dollar amounts and
as dollar amounts per Unit outstanding on the Record Dates for each such
distribution.
RIGHTS OF UNITHOLDERS. A Unitholder may at any time tender Units to the Trustee
for redemption. The death or incapacity of any Unitholder will not operate to
terminate the Trust Fund nor entitle legal representatives or heirs to claim an
accounting or to bring any action or proceeding in any court for partition or
winding up of the Trust Fund.
No Unitholder shall have the right to control the operation and management of
the Trust Fund in any manner, except to vote with respect to the amendment of
the Trust Agreement or termination of the Trust Fund.
INVESTMENT SUPERVISION
The Trust Fund is a unit investment trust and is not an "actively managed" fund.
Traditional methods of investment management for a managed fund typically
involve frequent changes in a portfolio of securities on the basis of economic,
financial and market analyses. The portfolio of the Trust Fund,
22
<PAGE> 27
however, will not be actively managed and therefore the adverse financial
condition of an issuer will not necessarily require the sale of its securities
from the portfolio. However, the Sponsor may direct the Trustee to dispose of
Securities upon default in payment of amounts due on debt obligations of the
issuer of the Securities or upon a decline in price or the occurrence of other
market or credit factors that in the opinion of the Sponsor would make the
retention of such Securities in the Trust Fund detrimental to the interest of
the Unitholders. If the Trustee disposes of such Securities, the Trustee cannot
use the proceeds of the sale to purchase additional Securities to be included in
the Trust. Any proceeds must be distributed directly to the Unitholders on a pro
rata basis.
The Trustee may sell Securities, designated by the Sponsor, from the Trust Fund
for the purpose of redeeming Units of the Trust Fund tendered for redemption and
the payment of expenses.
ADMINISTRATION OF THE TRUST
THE TRUSTEE. The Trustee, Investors Fiduciary Trust Company, is a trust company
specializing in investment related services, organized and existing under the
laws of Missouri, having its trust office at 127 West 10th Street, Kansas City,
Missouri 64105. The Trustee is subject to supervision and examination by the
Division of Finance of the State of Missouri and the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation. Investors Fiduciary Trust Company is jointly owned by DST Systems,
Inc. and Kemper Financial Services, Inc., an affiliate of the Sponsor.
The Trustee, whose duties are ministerial in nature, has not participated in
selecting the portfolio of the Trust Fund. For information relating to the
responsibilities of the Trustee under the Trust Agreement, reference is made to
the material set forth under "Unitholders."
In accordance with the Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall keep records of all
transactions at its office. Such records shall include the name and address of,
and the number of Units held by, every Unitholder of the Trust Fund. Such books
and records shall be open to inspection by any Unitholder of the Trust Fund at
all reasonable times during usual business hours. The Trustee shall make such
annual or other reports as may from time to time be required under any
applicable state or Federal statute, rule or regulation. The Trustee shall keep
a certified copy or duplicate original of the Trust Agreement on file in its
office available for inspection at all reasonable times during usual business
hours by any Unitholder, together with a current list of the Securities held in
the Trust Fund. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Trustee may employ one or
more agents for the purpose of custody and safeguarding of Securities comprising
the Trust Fund.
Under the Trust Agreement, the Trustee or any successor trustee may resign and
be discharged of the trust created by the Trust Agreement by executing an
instrument in writing and filing the same with the Sponsor.
The Trustee or successor trustee must mail a copy of the notice of resignation
to all Unitholders then of record, not less than sixty days before the date
specified in such notice when such resignation is to take effect. The Sponsor
upon receiving notice of such resignation is obligated to appoint a successor
trustee promptly. If, upon such resignation, no successor trustee has been
appointed and has accepted the appointment within thirty days after
notification, the retiring Trustee may apply to a court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor. In case the Trustee becomes
incapable of acting or is adjudged a bankrupt or is taken over by public
authorities, the Sponsor may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee
as provided in the Trust Agreement. Notice of such removal and appointment shall
be mailed to each Unitholder by the Sponsor. Upon execution of
23
<PAGE> 28
a written acceptance of such appointment by such successor trustee, all the
rights, powers, duties and obligations of the original Trustee shall vest in the
successor. The Trustee must be a corporation organized under the laws of the
United States, or any state thereof, be authorized under such laws to exercise
trust powers and have at all times an aggregate capital, surplus and undivided
profits of not less than $5,000,000.
THE SPONSOR. The Sponsor, Kemper Unit Investment Trusts, with an office at 77
West Wacker Drive, 5th Floor, Chicago, Illinois 60601, (800) 621-5024, is a
service of Kemper Securities, Inc. which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kemper
Financial Companies, Inc. which, in turn, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kemper
Corporation. The Sponsor acts as underwriter of a number of other Kemper unit
investment trusts and will act as underwriter of any other unit investment trust
products developed by the Sponsor in the future. As of April 30, 1993, the total
stockholder's equity of Kemper Securities, Inc. was $426,125,017 (unaudited).
If at any time the Sponsor shall fail to perform any of its duties under the
Trust Agreement or shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a
bankrupt or insolvent or shall have its affairs taken over by public
authorities, then the Trustee may (a) appoint a successor sponsor at rates of
compensation deemed by the Trustee to be reasonable and not exceeding such
reasonable amounts as may be prescribed by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, or (b) terminate the Trust Agreement and liquidate the Trust Fund as
provided therein, or (c) continue to act as Trustee without terminating the
Trust Agreement.
The foregoing financial information with regard to the Sponsor relates to the
Sponsor only and not to the Trust Fund. Such information is included in this
Prospectus only for the purpose of informing investors as to the financial
responsibility of the Sponsor and its ability to carry out its contractual
obligations with respect to the Trust Fund. More comprehensive financial
information can be obtained upon request from the Sponsor.
THE EVALUATOR. Kemper Unit Investment Trusts, the Sponsor, also serves as
Evaluator. The Evaluator may resign or be removed by the Trustee in which even
the Trustee is to use its best efforts to appoint a satisfactory successor. Such
resignation or removal shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by
the successor evaluator. If upon resignation of the Evaluator no successor has
accepted appointment within thirty days after notice of resignation, the
Evaluator may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of
a successor. Notice of such resignation or removal and appointment shall be
mailed by the Trustee to each Unitholder.
AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The Trust Agreement may be amended by the Trustee and
the Sponsor without the consent of any of the Unitholders: (1) to cure any
ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision which may be defective or
inconsistent; (2) to change any provision thereof as may be required by the
Securities and Exchange Commission or any successor governmental agency; or (3)
to make such provisions as shall not adversely affect the interests of the
Unitholders. The Trust Amendment with respect to the Trust Fund may also be
amended in any respect by the Sponsor and the Trustee, or any of the provisions
thereof may be waived, with the consent of the holders of Units representing
66 2/3% of the Units then outstanding of the Trust Fund, provided that no such
amendment or waiver will reduce the interest of any Unitholder thereof without
the consent of such Unitholder or reduce the percentage of Units required to
consent to any such amendment or waiver without the consent of all Unitholders
of the Trust Fund. In no event shall the Trust Agreement be amended to increase
the number of Units of the Trust Fund issuable thereunder or to permit the
24
<PAGE> 29
acquisition of any Securities in addition to or in substitution for those
initially deposited in the Trust Fund, except in accordance with the provisions
of the Trust Agreement. The Trustee shall promptly notify Unitholders of the
substance of any such amendment.
The Trust Agreement provides that the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the
liquidation, redemption or other disposition of the last of the Securities held
in the Trust Fund but in no event is it to continue beyond the Mandatory
Termination Date set forth under "Essential Information." If the value of the
Trust Fund shall be less than the applicable minimum value stated under
"Essential Information" (40% of the aggregate value of the Securities--based on
the value at the date of deposit of such Securities into the Trust Fund), the
Trustee may, in its discretion, and shall, when so directed by the Sponsor,
terminate the Trust Fund. The Trust Fund may be terminated at any time by the
holders of Units representing 66 2/3% of the Units thereof then outstanding.
No later than the date specified under "Liquidation Period" set forth under
"Essential Information," the Trustee will begin to sell all of the underlying
Securities on behalf of Unitholders in connection with the termination of the
Trust Fund. The Sponsor has agreed to assist the Trustee in these sales. The
sale proceeds will be net of any incidental expenses involved in the sales.
The Sponsor will attempt to sell the Securities as quickly as it can during the
Liquidation Period without in its judgment materially adversely affecting the
market price of the Securities, but it is expected that all of the Securities
will in any event be disposed of by the end of the Liquidation Period. The
Sponsor does not anticipate that the period will be longer than one month, and
it could be as short as one day, depending on the liquidity of the Securities
being sold. The liquidity of any Security depends on the daily trading volume of
the Security and the amount that the Sponsor has available for sale on any
particular day.
It is expected (but not required) that the Sponsor will generally follow the
following guidelines in selling the Securities: for highly liquid Securities,
the Sponsor will generally sell Securities on the first day of the Liquidation
Period; for less liquid Securities, on each of the first two days of the
Liquidation Period, the Sponsor will generally sell any amount of any underlying
Securities at a price no less than 1/2 of one point under the last closing sale
price of those Securities. Thereafter, the price limit will increase to one
point under the last closing sale price. After four days, the Sponsor currently
intends to sell at least a fraction of the remaining underlying Securities, the
numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is the total number of
days remaining (including that day) in the Liquidation Period without any price
restrictions. Of course, no assurances can be given that the market value of the
Securities will not be adversely affected during the Liquidation Period.
Any Unitholder who wishes to receive a Distribution In Kind at the termination
of the Trust and who otherwise qualifies for such a distribution (see
"Redemption") must notify the Trustee no later than the date indicated under
"Redemption In Kind" on page 3 of this Prospectus.
In the event of termination of the Trust Fund, written notice thereof will be
sent by the Trustee to all Unitholders of the Trust Fund. Within a reasonable
period after termination, the Trustee will sell any Securities remaining in the
Trust Fund and, after paying all expenses and charges incurred by the Trust
Fund, will distribute to Unitholders thereof (upon surrender for cancellation of
certificates for Units, if issued) their pro rata share of the balances
remaining in the Income and Capital Accounts of the Trust Fund.

LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY. The Sponsor: The Sponsor is liable for the performance
of its obligations arising from its responsibilities under the Trust Agreement,
but will be under no liability to the Unitholders for taking any action or
refraining from any action in good faith pursuant to the Trust Agreement or for
errors in judgment, except in cases of its own gross negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct or its reckless disregard for its duties thereunder. The
Sponsor shall not be liable or responsible in any way for depreciation or loss
incurred by reason of the sale of any Securities.
The Trustee: The Trust Agreement provides that the Trustee shall be under no
liability for any action taken in good faith in reliance upon prima facie
properly executed documents or for the disposition of monies, Securities or
certificates except by reason of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct, or its reckless disregard for its duties under the Trust Agreement,
nor shall the Trustee be liable or responsible in any way for depreciation or
loss incurred by reason of the sale by the Trustee of any Securities. In the
event that the Sponsor shall fail to act, the Trustee may act and shall not be
liable for any such action taken by it in good faith. The Trustee shall not be
personally liable for any taxes or other governmental charges imposed upon or in
respect of the Securities or upon the interest thereof. In addition, the Trust
Agreement contains other customary provisions limiting the liability of the
Trustee.
The Evaluator: The Trustee and Unitholders may rely on any evaluation furnished
by the Evaluator and shall have no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. The
Trust Agreement provides that the determinations made by the Evaluator shall be
made in good faith upon the basis of the best information available to it,
provided, however, that the Evaluator shall be under no liability to the Trustee
or Unitholders for errors in judgment, but shall be liable only for its gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or its reckless disregard for its
obligations under the Trust Agreement.
EXPENSES OF THE TRUST
The Sponsor will not charge the Trust any fees for services performed as
Sponsor. The Sponsor will receive a portion of the sale commissions paid in
connection with the purchase of Units and will share in profits, if any, related
to the deposit of Securities in the Trust Fund. The Sponsor has borne all the
expenses of creating and establishing the Trust including the cost of the
initial preparation, printing and execution of the Prospectus, Trust Agreement
and certificates, legal and accounting expenses, advertising and selling
expenses, payment of closing fees, the expenses of the Trustee and other out-
of-pocket expenses.
The Trustee receives for its services that fee set forth under "Essential
Information." The Trustee's fee which is calculated monthly is based on the
largest number of Units outstanding during the calendar year for which such
compensation relates. The Trustee's fees are payable monthly on or before the
fifteenth day of the month from the Income Account to the extent funds are
available and then from the Capital Account. The Trustee benefits to the extent
there are funds for future distributions, payment of expenses and redemptions in
the Capital and Income Accounts since these Accounts are non-interest bearing
and the amounts earned by the Trustee are retained by the Trustee. Part of the
Trustee's compensation for its services to the Trust Fund is expected to result
from the use of these funds.
For evaluation of Securities in the Trust Fund, the Evaluator shall receive that
fee set forth under "Essential Information", payable monthly, based upon the
largest number of Units outstanding during the calendar year for which such
compensation relates.
26
<PAGE> 31
The Trustee's fees and the Evaluator's fees are deducted from the Income Account
of the Trust Fund to the extent funds are available and then from the Capital
Account. Each such fee may be increased without approval of Unitholders by
amounts not exceeding a proportionate increase in the Consumer Price Index or
any equivalent index substituted therefor.
The following additional charges are or may be incurred by the Trust Fund: (a)
fees for the Trustee's extraordinary services; (b) expenses of the Trustee
(including legal and auditing expenses, but not including any fees and expenses
charged by an agent for custody and safeguarding of Securities) and of counsel,
if any; (c) various governmental charges; (d) expenses and costs of any action
taken by the Trustee to protect the Trust or the rights and interests of the
Unitholders; (e) indemnification of the Trustee for any loss, liability or
expense incurred by it in the administration of the Trust not resulting from
gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on its part or its reckless
disregard for its obligations under the Trust Agreement; (f) indemnification of
the Sponsor for any loss, liability or expense incurred in acting in that
capacity without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or its
reckless disregard for its obligations under the Trust Agreement; and (g)
expenditures incurred in contacting Unitholders upon termination of the Trust
Fund. The fees and expenses set forth herein are payable out of the Trust Fund
and, when owing to the Trustee, are secured by a lien on the Trust Fund. Since
the Securities are all common stocks, and the income stream produced by dividend
payments, if any, is unpredictable, the Sponsor cannot provide any assurance
that dividends will be sufficient to meet any or all expenses of the Trust Fund.
If the balances in the Income and Capital Accounts are insufficient to provide
for amounts payable by the Trust, the Trustee has the power to sell Securities
to pay such amounts. These sales may result in capital gains or losses to
Unitholders. See "Federal Tax Status."
LEGAL OPINIONS
The legality of the Units offered hereby and certain matters relating to Federal
tax law have been passed upon by Chapman and Cutler, 111 West Monroe Street,
Chicago, Illinois 60603, as counsel for the Sponsor.

KEMPER EQUITY PORTFOLIO TRUSTS,
SERIES 7 (UTILITY SERIES)
We have audited the accompanying statement of condition and the related
portfolio of Kemper Equity Portfolio Trusts, Series 7 (Utility Series), as of
January 21, 1994. The statement of condition and portfolio are the
responsibility of the Sponsor. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
such financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit 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. Our procedures included
confirmation of the Securities at , 1994 and a letter of credit
deposited to purchase Securities by correspondence with the Trustee. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by the Sponsor, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Kemper Equity Portfolio Trusts,
Series 7 (Utility Series) as of , 1994, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
