Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously disclosed, on February 13, 2018, Infinity Property and Casualty Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Kemper Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Kemper”), and Vulcan Sub, Inc., an Ohio corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Kemper (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Kemper (the “Merger”).

Proration of Merger Consideration

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as a result of the Merger, each share of Company common stock, no par value per share (“Company Common Stock”), issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) (other than shares owned by Kemper or its wholly owned subsidiaries or the Company or any of its subsidiaries and outstanding and unvested restricted shares of Company Common Stock granted under any Company stock plan owned by employee members of the Company board of directors (all such shares described in this parenthetical, the “Excluded Shares”)) is contemplated to be cancelled and converted into, at the election of the holder thereof, subject to proration and adjustment as described below, the right to receive either (i) 1.2019 shares of Kemper common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Kemper Common Stock”), and $51.60 in cash, without interest (the “Mixed Consideration”), (ii) an amount of cash equal to $129.00, without interest (the “Cash Consideration”), or (iii) 2.0031 shares of Kemper Common Stock (the “Stock Consideration”).

As previously disclosed, the deadline for Company shareholders to have delivered their election forms to elect the form of consideration to be received in the Merger was 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 18, 2018 (the “Election Deadline”), subject to the applicable notice of guaranteed delivery period. The consideration to be paid to holders of Company Common Stock electing to receive the Cash Consideration or the Stock Consideration in connection with the Merger is subject to automatic proration and adjustment, as set forth in the Merger Agreement and described in the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus filed by Kemper with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 27, 2018, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “Joint Proxy Statement”), to ensure that the total amount of cash paid and the total number of shares of Kemper Common Stock issued in the Merger is approximately the same as what would be paid and issued if all holders of Company Common Stock were to receive the Mixed Consideration.

Kemper and the Company have determined that, based on the valid elections of holders of Company Common Stock prior to the Election Deadline, pursuant to the automatic proration and adjustment provisions set forth in the Merger Agreement and described in the Joint Proxy Statement, the consideration to be received in the Merger by holders of Company Common Stock, following and subject to the closing of the Merger, is as follows:

• Those holders of Company Common Stock validly electing to receive the Mixed Consideration in the Merger will be entitled to receive 1.2019 shares of Kemper Common Stock and $51.60 in cash, without interest, for each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which such election was made;

• Those holders of Company Common Stock validly electing to receive the Cash Consideration in the Merger will be entitled to receive $129.00, without interest, for each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which such election was made;

• Those holders of Company Common Stock validly electing to receive the Stock Consideration in the Merger will be entitled to receive 1.2332 shares of Kemper Common Stock and $49.58 in cash, without interest, for each share of Company Common Stock with respect to which such election was made; and

• Those holders of Company Common Stock (not including Excluded Shares) that did not make a valid election prior to the Election Deadline will be deemed to have elected to receive the Mixed Consideration with respect to their shares of Company Common Stock and will be entitled to receive 1.2019 shares of Kemper Common Stock and $51.60 in cash, without interest, for each share of Company Common Stock held immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Insurance Regulatory Approvals and Closing Timing

On June 28, 2018, Kemper and the Company issued a joint press release announcing that the parties to the Merger Agreement have received all insurance regulatory clearances and approvals that are conditions precedent to the closing of the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Kemper and the Company expect to close the Merger on July 2, 2018.

A copy of the joint press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Forward-looking statements give expectations, intentions, beliefs or forecasts of future events or otherwise for the future, and can be identified by the fact that they relate to future actions, performance or results rather than relating strictly to historical or current facts. Words such as “believe(s),” “goal(s),” “target(s),” “estimate(s),” “anticipate(s),” “forecast(s),” “project(s),” “plan(s),” “intend(s),” “expect(s),” “might,” “may,” “could” and variations of such words and other words and expressions of similar meaning are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. However, the absence of such words or other words and expressions of similar meaning does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

Any or all forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong, and, accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict, and are not guarantees or assurances of future performance. No assurances can be given that the results and financial condition contemplated in any forward-looking statements will be achieved or will be achieved in any particular timetable. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict, and can be affected by inaccurate assumptions or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties that may be important in determining actual future results and financial condition. The general factors that could cause actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those expressed or implied include, without limitation, the following: (a) the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent to the consummation of the proposed Merger involving Kemper, Merger Sub and the Company; (b) unanticipated difficulties or expenditures relating to such proposed Merger; (c) risks relating to the value of the shares of Kemper’s common stock to be issued in such proposed Merger; (d) disruptions of Kemper’s and the Company’s current plans, operations and relationships with third persons caused by the announcement and pendency of such proposed Merger, including, without limitation, the ability of the combined company to hire and retain any personnel; (e) legal proceedings that may be instituted against Kemper and the Company in connection with such proposed Merger; and (f) those factors listed in annual, quarterly and periodic reports filed by Kemper and the Company with the SEC, whether or not related to such proposed Merger.
