This Supplement amends certain information contained in your Prospectus
concerning the Subaccounts that are available under the Policy.  Please read
it carefully and keep it with your Prospectus for future reference.

Policy Owners provided voting instructions at a meeting of shareholders of
Kemper Horizon 5 Portfolio, Kemper Horizon 10+ Portfolio, and Kemper Horizon
20+ Portfolio (the "Portfolios") adjourned to March 29, 2001, approving the
merger of each of the Portfolios into the Kemper Total Return Portfolio
effective April 30, 2001 (the "Merger").

As a result of the Merger, all transactions involving the Portfolios executed
after the close of business on April 27, 2001, will be processed into or
through the Kemper Total Return Portfolio.  Thus, all Premium Payments,
transfers, withdrawals, Automatic Account Rebalancing, Automatic Dollar Cost
Averaging, and other transactions that previously involved the Subaccounts
investing in the Portfolios will be processed through a Subaccount investing
in the Kemper Total Return Portfolio, unless Policy Owners instruct us
otherwise.
