                    calculate the value of each Subaccount.

                    Age: The attained age of the Annuitant.

                    Annuitant: The person named in the application during whose
                    lifetime the Annuity is to be paid. When two people are
                    named as Joint Annuitants the term "Annuitant" means the
                    Joint Annuitants or the survivor. Under Qualified Plans,
                    only the spouse may be named as Joint Annuitant. You may not
                    change the person(s) named as the Annuitant.

                                   is alive;

                                2. The Certificate must be in force at the time
                                   the Certificate Owner files a change;

                                3. Such change must not be prohibited by the
                                   terms of an existing assignment, beneficiary
                                   designation or other restriction;

                                4. Such change will take effect when We receive
                                   it;

                                5. After We receive the change, it will take
                                   effect on the date We received the change
                                   form. However, action taken by Us before the
                                   change form was received will remain in
                                   effect; and

                                6. The request for change must provide
                                   information sufficient to identify the new
                                   beneficiary.

                                We may require the Certificate Owner to return
                                the Certificate for endorsement of a change.

Death of Beneficiary            The interest of a beneficiary who dies before
                                the distribution of the death benefit will pass
                                to the other beneficiaries, if any, share and
                                share alike, unless otherwise provided in the
                                beneficiary designation. If no beneficiary
                                survives or is named, the distribution will be
                                made to the Certificate Owner's estate when the
                                Certificate Owner dies, or to the estate of the
                                Annuitant upon the death of the Annuitant if the
                                Certificate Owner is not also the Annuitant. If
                                a beneficiary dies within ten days of the date
                                of death, the death benefit will be paid as if
                                the Certificate Owner had survived the
                                beneficiary. If a beneficiary dies within ten
                                days of the death of the Annuitant and the
                                Certificate Owner is not the Annuitant, We will
                                pay the death benefit as if the Annuitant
                                survived the beneficiary. If the Certificate
                                Owner, the Annuitant, and the beneficiary die
                                simultaneously, We will pay the death benefit as
                                if the Certificate Owner had survived the
                                Annuitant and the beneficiary.

                                of such other locations. Purchase Payments
                                received by an agent will begin earning interest
                                after We receive it.

Purchase Payment                Subject to the limitations shown below, Purchase
Bonus                           Payments will be increased by the Purchase

                                before being allocated to the various accounts
                                of this Certificate.

                                We reserve the right to not increase a Purchase
                                Payment by the Purchase Payment bonus in the
                                following situations.
                                1. If at the time the Purchase Payment is made
                                the sum of Purchase Payments, partial
                                withdrawals and loans made under the Certificate
                                exceeds the sum of Purchase Payments and loan
                                repayments, or
                                2. The Purchase Payment arises from the transfer
                                of money from any other Life Insurance or
                                Annuity Contract.

FIXED ACCOUNT PROVISIONS

Fixed Account                   The Fixed Account Certificate Value is increased
Certificate Value               by: 1. the Certificate Owner's Payment allocated
                                to the Fixed Account; 2. amounts transferred
                                from a Guarantee Period or Subaccount to the
                                Fixed Account at the Certificate Owner's
                                request; and 3. the interest credited to amounts
                                so allocated or transferred. Transfers, charges
                                and withdrawals from the Fixed Account reduce
                                the Fixed Account Certificate Value.

                                Fixed Account interest rates are credited for
                                certain periods of time referred to as Fixed
                                Account interest rate periods. An initial Fixed
                                Account interest rate period runs from the date
                                We receive each Purchase Payment through the end
                                of the calendar month in which that Purchase
                                Payment is received and for 12 calendar months
                                thereafter. The initial Fixed Account interest
                                rate for the initial Purchase Payment is shown
                                on the Certificate Schedule. We will declare an
                                initial Fixed Account interest rate for each
                                subsequent Purchase Payment when that Purchase
                                Payment is received. For each Purchase Payment,
                                a subsequent Fixed Account interest rate period
                                begins immediately after the Initial Fixed
                                Account interest rate periods ends and runs for
                                12 calendar months. Subsequent Fixed Account
                                interest rate periods are in effect for periods
                                of 12 calendar months immediately following the
                                end of each previous subsequent Fixed Account
                                Interest Rate Period. We will declare an
                                interest rate applicable to each Purchase
                                Payment for each subsequent Fixed Account
                                Interest Rate Period.

                                We reserve the right to declare the Fixed
                                Account current interest rate(s) based upon: the
                                Issue Date; the date we receive a Purchase
                                Payment, or the date of account transfer.

                                We calculate the interest credited to the Fixed
                                Account by compounding daily, at daily interest
                                rates, rates which would produce at the end of a
                                Certificate. Year a result identical to the one
                                produced by applying an annual interest rate.

                                The minimum guaranteed Fixed Account interest
                                rate is 3.00% per year.

GUARANTEE PERIOD PROVISIONS

Guarantee Period                We hold all amounts allocated to a Guarantee
                                Period in a non-unitized Separate Account. The
                                assets of this Separate Account equal to the
                                reserves and other liabilities of this Separate
                                Account will not be charged with liabilities
                                arising out of any other business We may
                                conduct. The initial Guarantee Periods available
                                under the Certificate are shown on the
                                Certificate Schedule.

Guarantee Period Value          On any Valuation Date, the Guarantee Period
                                Value includes:
                                1. the Purchase Payments or transfers allocated
                                   to the Guarantee Period; plus
                                2. interest credited; minus
                                3. withdrawals and transfers; minus
                                4. any applicable portion of the Records
                                   Maintenance Charge and charges for other
                                   benefits; adjusted for
                                5. any applicable Market Value Adjustment
                                   previously made.

GUARANTEE PERIOD PROVISIONS (Continued)

                                The Guarantee Period(s) initially elected and
                                the interest rate(s) initially credited are
                                shown on the Certificate Schedule. The interest
                                rate credited to subsequent Purchase Payments
                                will be declared at the time the payment is
                                received.

                                At the end of a Guarantee Period, the Guarantee
                                Period Value will be transferred to a money
                                market Subaccount unless the Certificate Owner
                                tells Us to do otherwise.

Accumulated Guarantee           On any Valuation Date, the Accumulated Guarantee
Period Value                    Period Value is the sum of the Guarantee Period
                                Values. At any time during the Accumulation
                                Period, the Accumulated Guarantee Period Value
                                may be allocated to more than one Guarantee
                                Period with Our agreement.

                                We calculate the interest credited to the
                                Guarantee Period Value by compounding daily, at
                                daily interest rates, rates which would produce
                                at the end of a Certificate Year a result
                                identical to the one produced by applying an
                                annual interest rate.

Market Value Adjustment         The Market Value Adjustment formula is stated on
                                the Master Policy Schedule. This formula is
                                applicable for both an upward or downward
                                adjustment to a Guarantee Period Value when,
                                prior to the end of a Guarantee Period, such
                                value is:

                                We calculate the interest credited to the
                                Guarantee Period Value by
                                1. taken as a total or partial withdrawal;
                                2. applied to purchase an Annuity; or
                                3. transferred to another Guarantee Period, the
                                   Fixed Account or a Subaccount.

VARIABLE ACCOUNT PROVISIONS

Separate Account                The variable benefits under the Master Policy
                                and the Certificate are provided through the
                                KILICO Variable Annuity Separate Account. This
                                is called the Separate Account. The Separate
                                Account is registered with the Securities and
                                Exchange Commission as a unit investment trust
                                under the Investment Company Act of 1940. It is
                                a separate investment account maintained by Us
                                into which a portion of the company's assets
                                have been allocated for the Certificate and may
                                be allocated for certain other Certificates.

Liabilities of Separate
Account                         The assets equal to the reserves and other
                                liabilities of the Separate Account will not be
                                charged with liabilities arising out of any
                                other business We may conduct. We will value the
                                assets of the Separate Account on each Valuation
                                Date.

Separate Account                On any Valuation Date the Separate Account
Certificate Value               Certificate Value is the sum of its Subaccount
                                values.

Subaccounts                     The Separate Account consists of Subaccounts.
                                The initial Subaccounts available under this
                                Certificate are shown on the Certificate
                                Schedule. We may, from time to time, combine or
                                remove Subaccounts in the Separate Account and
                                establish additional Subaccounts of the Separate
                                Account. In such event We may permit You to
                                select other Subaccounts under the Certificate.
                                However, the right to select any other
                                Subaccount is limited by the terms and
                                conditions We may impose on such transactions.

Fund                            Each Subaccount of the Separate Account will buy
                                shares of a separate series of a Fund. Each Fund
                                is registered under the investment Company Act
                                of 1940 as an open-end management investment
                                company. Each series of a Fund represents a
                                separate investment portfolio which corresponds
                                to one of the Subaccounts of the Separate
                                Account.

                                If We establish additional Subaccounts each new
                                Subaccount will invest in a new series of a Fund
                                or in shares of another investment company. We
                                may also substitute other investment companies.

                              Fund or the shares of another investment company
                              or any other investment permitted by law; and

                              to increase the aggregate amount above that
                              currently charged to the Separate Account and the
                              Funds in connection with this Certificate.

                              When required by law, We will obtain Your approval
                              of such changes and the approval of any regulatory
                              authority.

Accumulation Unit Value       Each Subaccount has an Accumulation Unit Value.
                              When Purchase Payments or other amounts are
                              allocated to a Subaccount, a number of units are
                              purchased based on the Accumulation Unit Value of
                              the Subaccount at the end of the Valuation Period
                              during which the allocation is made. When amounts
                              are transferred out of or deducted from a .
                              Subaccount, units are redeemed in a similar
                              manner.

                              The value of a Subaccount on any Valuation Date is
                              the number of units held in the Subaccount times
                              the Accumulation Unit Value on that Valuation
                              Date.

                              The Accumulation Unit Value for each subsequent
                              Valuation period is the investment experience
                              factor for that period multiplied by the
                              Accumulation Unit Value for the period immediately
                              preceding. Each Valuation Period has a single
                              Accumulation Unit Value that is applied to each
                              day in the period. The number of Accumulation
                              Units will not change as a result of investment
                              experience.

Investment Experience         Each Subaccount has its own investment experience
Factor                        factor. The investment experience of the Separate
                              Account is calculated by applying the investment
                              experience factor to the value in each Subaccount
                              during a Valuation Period.

                              The investment experience factor of a Subaccount
                              for a Valuation Period is determined by dividing
                              1, by 2, and subtracting 3, from the result,
                              where:

                              1.   is the net result of;

                              a.   the net asset value per share of the
                              investment held in the Subaccount determined at
                              the end of the current Valuation Period; plus

                              b.   the per share amount of any dividend or
                              capital gain distributions made by the investments
                              held in the Subaccount, if the "ex-dividend" date
                              occurs during the current Valuation Period; plus
                              or minus

                              Subaccount.

                              2. is the net asset value per share of the
                              investment held in the Subaccount, determined at
                              the end of the last Valuation Period.

                              3. is the factor representing the sum of the
                              Separate Account charges stated on the Certificate
                              Schedule for the number of days in the Valuation
                              Period.

                              Market Value Adjustment. The Market Value
                              Adjustment formula will be applied to the
                              applicable portion of the total value withdrawn.
                              We must receive a written request that indicates
                              the amount of the withdrawal from the Fixed
                              Account and each Subaccount and Guarantee Period.
                              The Certificate Owner must return the Certificate
                              to Us if the Certificate Owner elects a total
                              withdrawal.

                              Withdrawals are subject to these conditions:

                              The Certificate Value less any debt and any
                              applicable withdrawal charge remaining after a
                              withdrawal must be at least $5,000.

                              Withdrawals from the Subaccounts will reduce the
                              amounts in each Subaccount on a proportional
                              basis, unless the Certificate Owner tells Us
                              otherwise.

                              Each withdrawal from a Guarantee Period must be at
                              least $5,000 or the value that remains in the
                              Guarantee Period, if smaller;

                              The maximum the Certificate Owner may withdraw
                              from any account is the value of the respective
                              account less the amount of any withdrawal charge
                              and Market Value Adjustment.

                              Any withdrawal amount the Certificate Owner
                              requests will be increased by any applicable
                              withdrawal charge.

                              A withdrawal from the Fixed Account is limited to
                              an amount equal to the Fixed Account Certificate
                              Value.

                              We reserve the right to restrict partial
                              withdrawals from the Fixed Account in the first

                              Certificate Year.

Withdrawal Charges            All Purchase Payments in a given Certificate Year
                              and all related accumulations are totaled by
                              account and each total is used separately in
                              computing the withdrawal charge as stated in the
                              Withdrawal Charge Table shown on the Certificate
                              Schedule.

                              All amounts to be withdrawn and any applicable
                              withdrawal charges will be charged first against
                              Purchase Payments and all related accumulations in
                              the chronological order We received such Purchase
                              Payments by Certificate Year.

                              Any amount withdrawn which is not subject to a
                              withdrawal charge will be considered a "partial
                              free withdrawal."

                              In the event of a partial withdrawal, a "partial
                              free withdrawal" is applied against Purchase
                              Payments and all related accumulations in the
                              chronological order We received such Purchase
                              Payments by Certificate Year even though the
                              Purchase Payments and related accumulations are no
                              longer subject to a withdrawal charge.

Transfer and Withdrawal       We will withdraw or transfer from the Fixed
Procedures                    Account or Guarantee Periods as of the Valuation
                              Date that follows the date We receive the
                              Certificate Owner's written or telephone transfer
                              request. Amounts to be withdrawn or transferred
                              from the Fixed Account or Guarantee Periods will
                              be done on a first in - first out basis, unless
                              the Certificate Owner requests otherwise. To
                              process a withdrawal, the request must contain all
                              required information.

TRANSFER AND WITHDRAWAL PROVISIONS (Continued)

                              We will redeem the necessary number of
                              Accumulation Units to achieve the dollar amount
                              when the withdrawal or transfer is made from a
                              Subaccount. We will reduce the number of
                              Accumulation Units credited in each Subaccount by
                              the number of Accumulation Units redeemed. The
                              reduction in the number of Accumulation Units is
                              determined on the basis of the Accumulation Unit
                              Value at the end of the Valuation Period when We
                              receive the request, provided the request contains
                              all required information. We will pay the amount
                              within seven calendar days after the date We
                              receive the request, except as provided below.

Deferment of Withdrawal or    If the withdrawal or transfer is to be made from a
Transfer                      Subaccount, We may suspend the right of withdrawal
                              or transfer or delay payment more than seven
                              calendar days: 1. during any period when the New
                              York Stock Exchange is closed other than customary
                              weekend and holiday closings; 2. when trading
                              markets normally utilized are restricted, or an
                              emergency exists as determined by the Securities
                              and Exchange Commission, so that disposal of
                              investments or determination of the Accumulation
                              Unit Value is not practical; or 3. for such other
                              periods as the Securities and Exchange Commission
                              by order may permit for protection of Certificate
                              Owners.

                              We may defer the payment of a withdrawal or
                              transfer from the Fixed Account or Guarantee
                              Periods, for the period permitted by law. This can
                              never be more than six months after the
                              Certificate Owner sends Us a written request.
                              During the period of deferral, We will continue to
                              credit interest, at the then current interest
                              rate(s), to the Fixed Account Certificate Value
                              and/or each Guarantee Period Value.

DEATH BENEFIT PROVISIONS

Amount Payable Upon Death     We compute the death benefit at the end of the
                              Valuation Period following Our receipt of due
                              proof of death and the return of the Certificate.

                              If death occurs prior to attaining age 75, We will
                              pay the greater of: a. the Certificate Value; or
                              b. the total amount of Purchase Payments, less the
                              aggregate dollar amount of all previous
                              withdrawals or c. the amount that would have been
                              payable in the event of a full surrender. We will
                              pay the larger of the Certificate Value or the
                              amount that would have been payable in the event
                              of a full surrender if death occurs at age 75 or
                              later.

Payment of Death Benefits     If the Certificate Owner or the last surviving
                              annuitant dies while the Certificate is in effect
                              and before the Annuity Date, We will pay a death
                              benefit. If a Certificate Owner is a non-natural
                              person, the death of an Annuitant will be
                              considered as the death of a Certificate Owner for
                              purposes of this death benefit provision.

                              If an Annuitant dies after the Annuity Date, the
                              death benefit, if any, will depend on the Annuity
                              Option in effect. If the Certificate Owner dies
                              after the Annuity Date, income payments will be
                              made at least as rapidly as under the method of
                              distribution being used as of the date of such
                              death.

                              We will pay the death benefit to the beneficiary
                              when We receive due proof of death. We will then
                              have no further obligation under the Certificate.

                              When the Certificate Owner dies, We will pay the
                              death benefit in a lump sum. The entire interest
                              in the Certificate must be distributed within five
                              years from the date of death unless it is applied
                              under an Annuity Option or the spouse continues
                              the Certificate as described below.

L-8696                                                                   Page 15

DEATH BENEFIT PROVISIONS (Continued)

                              Instead of a lump sum payment the beneficiary may
                              elect to have the death benefit distributed as
                              stated in Option 1 for a period not to exceed the
                              beneficiary's life expectancy; or Options 2 or 3
                              based upon the life expectancy of the beneficiary
                              as prescribed by federal regulations. The
                              beneficiary must make this choice within sixty
                              days of the time. We receive due proof of death
                              and distribution must commence within one year of
                              the date of death.

                              If the beneficiary is not a natural person, the
                              beneficiary must elect that the entire death
                              benefit be distributed within five years of the
                              Certificate Owner's death.

                              Distribution of the death benefit must start
                              within one year after the Certificate Owner's
                              death. It may start later if prescribed by federal
                              regulations.

                              If the primary beneficiary is the surviving spouse
                              when the Certificate Owner dies, the surviving
                              spouse may elect to be the successor Certificate
                              Owner of the Certificate, in lieu of receiving a
                              death benefit. There will be no requirement to
                              start a distribution of death benefits.

ANNUITY PERIOD PROVISIONS

Election of Annuity Option    We must receive an election of Annuity option in
                              writing. The Certificate Owner may make an
                              election before the Annuity Date providing the
                              Annuitant is alive. The Annuitant may make an
                              election on the Annuity Date unless the
                              Certificate Owner has restricted the right to
                              make such an election. The beneficiary may make an
                              election when We pay the death benefit.

                              An election will be revoked by 1. a subsequent
                              change of beneficiary; or 2. an assignment of the
                              Certificate unless the assignment provides
                              otherwise.

                              Subject to the terms of the death benefit
                              provision, the beneficiary may elect to have the
                              death benefit remain with Us under one of the
                              Annuity options.

                              If an Annuity option is not elected, an Annuity
                              will be paid under Option 3 for a guaranteed
                              period of ten years and for as long thereafter as
                              the payee is alive.

                              If the total Certificate Value is applied under
                              one of the Annuity options, the Certificate must
                              be surrendered to Us.

                              An option cannot be changed after the first
                              Annuity payment is made.

                              If, on the seventh calendar day before the first
                              Annuity payment due date, all the Certificate
                              Value is allocated to the Fixed Account or
                              Guarantee Periods, the Annuity will be paid as a
                              Fixed Annuity. The Fixed Annuity is funded in Our
                              General Account, which consists of Our assets
                              other than those allocated to the Separate Account
                              or any other separate account. If all of the
                              Certificate Value on such date is allocated to the
                              Separate Account, the Annuity will be paid as a
                              Variable Annuity. If the Certificate Value on such
                              date is allocated to both the Fixed Account or a
                              Guarantee Period and a Subaccount, then the
                              Annuity will be paid as a combination of a Fixed
                              and a Variable Annuity. A Fixed and Variable
                              Annuity payment will reflect the investment
                              performance of the Subaccounts in accordance with
                              the allocation of the Certificate Values existing
                              on such date. Allocations will not be changed
                              thereafter, except as provided in the Transfers
                              During the Annuity Period provision of the
                              Certificate.

ANNUITY PERIOD PROVISIONS (Continued)

                              Payments for all options are derived from the
                              applicable tables. Current Annuity rates will be
                              used if they produce greater payments than those
                              quoted in the Certificate. The age in the tables
                              is the age of the payee on the last birthday
                              before the first payment is due. We reserve the
                              right to deduct one year from the age for each 10
                              calendar years that have elapsed since the year
                              2000.

                              The option selected must result in a payment that
                              is at least equal to Our minimum payment,
                              according to Our rules, at the time the Annuity
                              option is chosen. If at any time the payments are
                              less than the minimum payment, We have the right
                              to increase the period between payment to
                              quarterly, semi-annual or annual so that the
                              payment is at least equal to the minimum payment
                              or to make payment in one lump sum.

OPTION 1

Specified Period              We will make monthly payments for a fixed number
                              of installments. Payments must be made for at
                              least 5 years, but not more than 30 years.

OPTION 2

Life Annuity                  We will make monthly payments while the payee is
                              alive.

OPTION 3

Life Annuity with             We will make monthly payments for a guaranteed
Installments Guaranteed       period and thereafter while the payee is alive.
                              The guaranteed period must be selected at the time
                              the Annuity option is chosen. The guaranteed
                              periods available are 5, 10, 15 and 20 years.
OPTION 4

Joint and Survivor Annuity    We will pay the full monthly income while both
                              payees are alive. Upon the death of either payee,
                              We will continue to pay the surviving payee a
                              percentage of the original monthly payment. The
                              percentage payable to the surviving payee must be
                              selected at the time the Annuity option is chosen.
                              The percentages available are 50%, 66 2/3%, 75%
                              and 100%.

OTHER OPTIONS                 We may make other Annuity options available.
                              Payments are also available on a quarterly, semi-
                              annual or annual basis.

Fixed Annuity                 The Certificate Value allocated to the Fixed
                              Account or the Guarantee Periods on the first day
                              preceding the date on which the first Annuity
                              Payment is due is first reduced by any premium
                              taxes and charges that apply. The value that
                              remains will be used to determine the Fixed
                              Annuity monthly payment in accordance with the
                              Annuity option selected.

ANNUITY PERIOD PROVISIONS (Continued)

Variable Annuity              The Separate Account Certificate Value, at the end
                              of the Valuation period preceding the Valuation
                              Period that includes the date on which the first
                              Annuity payment is due, is first reduced by any
                              Records Maintenance Charge, charges for other
                              benefits if any that may be added by a rider to
                              the Certificate and any premium taxes that apply.
                              The value that remains is used to determine the
                              first monthly Annuity payment. The first monthly
                              Annuity payment is based upon the guaranteed
                              Annuity option shown in the Annuity Option Table.
                              The Certificate Owner may elect any option
                              available.

                              The dollar amount of subsequent payments may
                              increase or decrease depending on the investment
                              experience of each Subaccount. The number of
                              Annuity Units per payment will remain fixed for
                              each Subaccount unless a transfer is made. If a
                              transfer is made, the number of Annuity Units per
                              payment will change. Some annuity options provide
                              for a reduction in the income level upon the death
                              of an annuitant, which will reduce the number of
                              Annuity Units.

                              The number of Annuity Units for each Subaccount is
                              calculated by dividing a. by b. where:

                              a. is the amount of the monthly payment that can
                              be attributed to that Subaccount, and

                              b. is the Annuity Unit Value for that Subaccount
                              at the end of the Valuation Period. The Valuation
                              Period includes the date on which the payment is
                              made.

                              Monthly Annuity payments, after the first payment,
                              are calculated by summing up, for each Subaccount,
                              the product of a. times b. where:

                              a. is the number of Annuity Units per payment in
                              each Subaccount; and

                              b. is the Annuity Unit Value for that Subaccount
                              at the end of the Valuation Period. The Valuation
                              Period includes the date on which the payment is
                              made.

                              After the first payment, We guarantee that the
                              dollar amount of each Annuity payment will not be
                              affected adversely by actual expenses or changes
                              in mortality experience from the expense and
                              mortality assumptions on which We based the first
                              payment.

Annuity Unit Value            The value of an Annuity Unit for each Subaccount,
                              at the end of any subsequent Valuation Period is
                              determined by multiplying the result of a. times
                              b. by c. where:

                              a. is the Annuity Unit Value for the immediately
                              preceding Valuation Period; and

                              b. is the net investment factor for the Valuation
                              Period for which the Annuity Unit Value is being
                              calculated; and

                              c. is the interest of factor of .99983235 per
                              calendar day of such subsequent Valuation Period
                              to offset the effect of the assumed rate of 2.50%
                              per year used in the Annuity Option Table. A
                              different interest factor will be used if an
                              assumed rate other than 2.50% is used in the
                              Annuity Option Table. A different factor will be
                              used if an assumed rate other than 2.50% is used
                              in the Annuity Option Table.

ANNUITY PERIOD PROVISIONS (Continued)

                              The net investment factor for each Subaccount for
                              any Valuation Period is determined by dividing a.
                              by b. where:

                              a. is the value of an Annuity Unit of the
                              applicable Subaccount as of the end of the current
                              Valuation Period plus or minus the per share
                              charge or credit for taxes reserved.

                              b. is the value of an Annuity Unit of the
                              applicable Subaccount as of the end of the
                              immediately preceding Valuation Period, plus or
                              minus the per share charge or credit for taxes
                              reserved.

Transfers During the          During the Annuity Period, the payee(s) may not
Annuity Period                convert Fixed Annuity payments to Variable Annuity
                              payments. However, during the Annuity Period, the
                              payee(s), by sending Us a written notice in a form
                              satisfactory to Us, may convert Variable Annuity
                              payments to Fixed Annuity payments; or have
                              Variable Annuity payments reflect the investment
                              experience of other Subaccounts. A transfer may be
                              made subject to the following:

                              1. Transfers from a Subaccount to the General
                              Account can be effective only on an anniversary of
                              the first Annuity payment date. We must receive
                              notice of such transfer at least thirty days prior
                              to the effective date of the transfer. Unless the
                              Certificate Owner specifies otherwise, transfers
                              to the General Account from the Separate Account
                              will be proportional among the Subaccounts.

                              2. Transfers from one Subaccount to another
                              Subaccount will be effective during the Valuation
                              Period next succeeding the date the notice is
                              received by Us. However, if the notice for the
                              transfer is received within seven days immediately
                              preceding an Annuity payment date, the transfer
                              will be effective during the Valuation Period next
                              succeeding that Annuity payment date.

                              3. We reserve the right to limit the number of
                              transfers between Subaccounts to no less than one
                              each Certificate Year.

                              4. We reserve the right to limit the number of
                              Subaccounts that may be used at one time to no
                              less than 3.

                              5. Requests for transfers must meet Our current
                              rules and be in a form acceptable to Us.

                              The number of Annuity Units per payment
                              attributable to a Subaccount to which transfer is
                              made is equal to, in the case of a transfer
                              between Subaccounts, the number of Annuity Units
                              per payment in the Subaccount from which transfer
                              is being made multiplied by the Annuity Unit Value
                              for that Subaccount divided by the Annuity Unit
                              Value for the Subaccount to which transfer is
                              being made.

ANNUITY PERIOD PROVISIONS (Continued)

                              The amount of money allocated to the General
                              Account in the event of a transfer from a
                              Subaccount equals the annuity reserve for the
                              payee's interest in such Subaccount. The annuity
                              reserve is the product of a. multiplied by b.
                              multiplied by c. where: a. is the number of
                              Annuity Units representing the payee's interest in
                              such Subaccount per Annuity payment; b. is the
                              Annuity Unit Value for such Subaccount; and c. is
                              the present value of $1.00 per payment period
                              using the attained age(s) of the payee(s) and any
                              remaining guaranteed payment that may be due at
                              the time of the transfer. The fixed monthly
                              payments resulting from the transfer will not be
                              less than the amount purchased using the
                              guarantees under the Certificate. Money allocated
                              to the General Account upon such transfer will be
                              applied under the same Annuity option as
                              originally elected. Any Guaranteed Period payments
                              will be adjusted to reflect the number of
                              guaranteed payments that have already been made.
                              If all guaranteed payments have already been made,
                              no further payments will be guaranteed.

                              All amounts and Annuity Unit Values are determined
                              as of the end of the Valuation Period which
                              precedes the effective date of the transfer.

                              We reserve the right at any time and without
                              notice to any party to terminate, suspend or
                              modify the transfer privileges.

Supplementary Agreement       A supplementary agreement will be issued to
                              reflect payments that will be made under a
                              settlement option. If payment is made as a death
                              benefit distribution, the effective date will be
                              the date of death. Otherwise the effective date
                              will be the date chosen by the Certificate Owner.

Date of First Payment         Interest, under an option, will start to accrue on
                              the effective date of the supplementary agreement.
                              The supplementary agreement will provide details
                              on the payments to be made.

Evidence of Age, Sex          We may require satisfactory evidence of the age,
and Survival                  sex and the continued survival of any person on
                              whose life the income is based.

Misstatement of Age or Sex    If the age or sex of the payee has been misstated,
                              the amount payable under the Certificate will be
                              such as the Purchase Payments sent to Us would
                              have purchased at the correct age or sex. Interest
                              not to exceed 6% compounded each year will be
                              charged to any overpayment or credited to any
                              underpayment against future payments We make under
                              the Certificate.

Basis of Annuity Options      The guaranteed monthly payments are based on an
                              interest rate of 2.50% per year and where
                              mortality is involved, the A2000 Table developed
                              by the Society of Actuaries. We may also make
                              available Variable Annuity payment options based
                              on assumed investment rates other than 2.50% but
                              not greater than 5%.

Disbursement of Funds         When the payee dies, the value of any unpaid
Upon Death of Payee:          installments will be paid in one sum, to the
Under Options 1 or 3          estate of the payee unless otherwise provided in
                              the agreement. The commuted value for fixed
                              installments based upon a minimum interest rate of
                              not less than 2.50% will be paid. The commuted
                              value of any variable installments will be
                              determined by applying the Annuity Unit Value next

NURSING CARE PROVISION

                         The following provision is added to the Certificate
                         Owner's Certificate:

                         Withdrawal charges will not be assessed when a total or
                         partial withdrawal is requested in a form satisfactory
                         to Us:

                         1.   after the Certificate Owner has been confined in a
                         Hospital or Skilled Health Care Facility for at least
                         thirty consecutive days and the Certificate Owner
                         remains confined in the Hospital or Skilled Health Care
                         Facility when the request is made; or

                         Owner's discharge from a Hospital or Skilled Health
                         Care Facility after a confinement of at least thirty
                         days.

                         Withdrawal charges will not be waived when confinement

                         disorders without a demonstrable organic disease. A
                         degenerative brain disease such as Alzheimer's Disease
                         is considered an organic disease.

                         "Hospital" means a place which is licensed by the State
                         as a Hospital and is operating within the scope of its
                         license.

                         "Skilled Health Care Facility" means a place which:

                         (a)  is licensed by the state;

                         (b)  provides skilled nursing care under the
                         supervision of a physician;

                         (c)  has twenty-four hour a day nursing services by or
                         under the supervision of a registered nurse (RN); and

                         (d)  keeps a daily medical record of each patient.

                         except if the next section applies.

SECTION 2.               This section applies if the Certificate is held by: a
EXCLUSIVE BENEFIT        State; or a political subdivision of a State. In that
                         case, in accordance with 457(g), all assets and income
                         under the Certificate are held for the exclusive

                         Certificate: a. is issued as a Code Section 403(b) Tax
                         Sheltered Annuity ("Tax Sheltered Annuity") to an

                              sold; assigned; discounted; or pledged as
                              collateral for a loan or as security for the
                              performance of an obligation or for any person
                              other than Us.

                         D.   The amount that may be contributed to the
                              Certificate will be governed by the provisions of
                              Sections 403(b), 415, and 402(g) of the Code.

                         E.   In the case of benefits that accrued under the
                              Certificate after December 31, 1986, distribution
                              must be: a. made in accordance with the minimum
                              distribution requirements of Section 403(b)(10) of
                              the Code; and b. the regulations thereunder.

                         F.   Distributions attributable to salary reduction
                              contributions received or earnings credited after
                              December 31, 1988 may be paid only when: a. the
                              employee attains age 59 1/2; b. separates from
                              service; or c. dies or is disabled.
                              Notwithstanding the foregoing, contributions, but
                              not earnings thereon, may be distributed in the
                              case of hardship within the meaning of Code
                              Section 403(b)(11)(B).

                         G.   If the Annuitant receives an eligible rollover
                              distribution and elects to have the distribution
                              paid directly to an eligible retirement plan (as
                              defined in Section 402(c) of the Code) and
                              specifies the eligible retirement plan in a direct
                              rollover.

                         H.   We will not be responsible for the timing, purpose
                              or propriety of any distribution. We will not
                              incur any liability or responsibility of any tax
                              imposed on account of any such distribution. We
                              are not obligated to make any distribution absent
                              a specific written direction in accordance with
                              the provision of the Certificate.

SECTION 2.               At any time prior to the Annuity Date, an ERISA loan
ERISA PLANS              may be requested. One-half of the Certificate will be
                         assigned as security for such a loan. The maximum ERISA
                         loan amount available is the lesser of: a. $50,000
                         (reduced by the excess of the highest outstanding loan
                         balance of all loans during the prior 12 month period
                         ending on the day before the loan is made over any loan
                         amount outstanding on the date the loan is made); or b.
                         fifty percent of the Certificate Value less Debt. The
                         minimum ERISA loan amount available is $1,000. We may
                         defer the granting of an ERISA loan for six months from
                         the date of our receipt of a written loan request.

QUALIFIED PLAN PROVISION (continued)

SECTION 3.                              A.   Definitions:
LOANS
                                             Certificate Value is the sum of the
                                             Fixed Account Certificate Value,
                                             the Loan Value, the Separate
                                             Account Certificate Value, and the
                                             Guarantee Period Value.

                                             Debt is the principal of any
                                             outstanding loan plus interest due
                                             or accrued.

                                             Loan Value is the outstanding loan
                                             amount plus interest credited.

                                        B.   When a loan is taken, an amount
                                             equal to the loan will be
                                             transferred from the Fixed Account
                                             Certificate Value, the Separate
                                             Account Certificate Value and the
                                             Guarantee Period Value to the loan
                                             account. Unless the Certificate
                                             Owner tells Us otherwise, the loan
                                             will proportionately reduce the
                                             amount allocated to the Fixed
                                             Account, the Separate Account, and
                                             the Guarantee Periods.

                                        C.   The amount of Debt will reduce the
                                             amount payable upon death or
                                             surrender or the amount that may be
                                             applied under an Annuity Option.

                                        D.   While a loan is outstanding, the
                                             Loan Value will be credited with
                                             interest at a rate equal to the
                                             rate charged on Debt less a
                                             deduction not to exceed 2.5%.

                                        E.   A loan may be repaid in full or in
                                             part at any time prior to the
                                             Annuity Date.

                                        F.   Should the Debt equal or exceed the
                                             Certificate Value, the Certificate
                                             will terminate thirty-one days
                                             after We mail a notice of
                                             termination to the Certificate
                                             Owner's last known address. The
                                             Debt will be treated as a
                                             withdrawal. Notice of termination
                                             may be sent upon occurrence of an
                                             event outlined in Section 1(F).

                                        G.   The Certificate Owner must sign a
                                             loan agreement in the form
                                             prescribed by Us to be eligible for
                                             a loan. The interest rate and any
                                             service fees charged on a loan will
                                             be as stated in the loan agreement.
                                             The loan will also be subject to
                                             the terms of the agreement to the
                                             extent not inconsistent with this
                                             provision.

                                        H.   All Debt must be repaid prior to
                                             the transfer of any amounts to
                                             another Certificate.

                                        I.   Failure to make timely repayment of
                                             Debt will result in a taxable
                                             distribution and possible tax
                                             penalties.

                         If payments under a chosen option are guaranteed, the
                         period of guarantee may not exceed the Certificate
                         Owner's expected life, or the expected lives of the
                         joint and last survivor of the Certificate Owner and

                              The following provision applies in lieu of any
                              provisions to the contrary in this Master Policy
                              if an Annuitant establishes a Roth Individual
                              Retirement Annuity ("Roth IRA") under Section 408A
                              of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
                              ("Code"). The Certificate is amended to restrict
                              the Certificate Owner's rights and any
                              beneficiary(s) rights, and to limit the
                              contributions as follows:

                              1. The Certificate Owner may not transfer
                                 Ownership of the Certificate, or assign or
                                 pledge the Certificate as collateral for a loan
                                 or as security for the performance of an
                                 obligation or for any other purpose, to any
                                 person other than to Us or the Certificate
                                 Owner's former spouse under a written
                                 instrument incident to that divorce.

                              2. The Certificate Owner is established for the
                                 exclusive benefit of the Certificate Owner
                                 and the Certificate Owner's beneficiary(s).

                              3. The Certificate Owner's interest in the
                                 Certificate is nonforfeitable.

                              4. Dividends, if applicable, will not be paid in
                                 cash but will be applied as contributions to
                                 the Certificate.

                              5. At least once each calendar year, we shall
                                 furnish the Certificate Owner a report
                                 concerning the status of the Certificate.

                              6. The Certificate will accept contributions only
                                 as follows:

                                 A. Contributions to the Certificate must be
                                    paid in cash and, except in the case of a
                                    trustee-to-trustee transfer from another
                                    Roth IRA, or in the case of a qualified
                                    rollover contribution, may not exceed the
                                    excess of the Certificate Owner's
                                    contribution limit for the taxable year over
                                    the aggregate contributions made during the
                                    taxable year to all other Roth

                                    IRA's and IRA's held by the Certificate
                                    Owner. Contributions may made without
                                    respect to the Certificate Owner's age.

                                    The contribution limit for the taxable year
                                    is either: (1) the lesser of $2,000 or 100%
                                    of the Certificate Owner's compensation for
                                    the taxable year; or (2) where the
                                    Certificate Owner files a joint and receives
                                    less compensation for the taxable year than
                                    the Certificate Owner's spouse, the lesser
                                    of $2,000 or 100% of the Certificate Owner's
                                    compensation and the Certificate Owner's
                                    spouse's compensation for the taxable year
                                    less the Certificate Owner's spouse's
                                    contribution to a Roth IRA or IRA (if any)
                                    for the same taxable year.

                                    When the Certificate Owner's adjusted gross
                                    income (AGI) exceeds the applicable dollar
                                    limit (ADL; see description below), the
                                    annual contribution limit is reduced by the
                                    following amount:

                                    <S>                 <C>
                                    Annual
                                    Contribution    X   The Certificate Owner's AGI - ADL
                                                        ----------------------------------------------------
                                    Limit               $15,000 ($10,000 if the Certificate Owner is married
</TABLE>

                                    For purposes of this Section: AGI does not
                                    include any amount included in gross income
                                    as a result of a rollover of an IRA to a
                                    Roth IRA; and AGI is reduced by any
                                    deduction under Section 219 of the Code.

                                    The ADL is $15,000 for the Certificate Owner
                                    filing a joint return; or $95,000 for the
                                    Certificate Owner filing a single return; or
                                    $-0 for the Certificate Owner as married
                                    filing a separate return.

                                         IRA.

                                 B.      For purposes of this Section, life
                                         expectancy will be computed by use of
                                         the return multiples specified in
                                         Tables V or VI of Section 1.72-9 of the
                                         Income Tax Regulations based on the
                                         attained age of such beneficiary(s)
                                         during the calendar year in which
                                         distributions are required to commence
                                         pursuant to this Section. Payments for
                                         any subsequent calendar year will be
                                         based on the life expectancy reduced by
                                         one for each calendar year which has
                                         elapsed since the calendar year life
                                         expectancy was first calculated. The
                                         Certificate Owner's designated
                                         beneficiary(s) who is the surviving
                                         spouse may elect, prior to the time
                                         that payments have begun to him or her,
                                         to redetermine life expectancy each
                                         year based on the beneficiary(s)
                                         attained age in each such year.

                              8. The Certificate shall be amended from time to
                                 time, if required, to reflect any changes in
                                 the Code, related regulations, or other
                                 federal tax requirements.

KEMPER INVESTORS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
1 Kemper Drive
Long Grove, IL 60049-0001

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITY SUPPLEMENTAL RIDER

This Rider forms a part of the contract to which it is attached. It is issued by
Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company (we, us, ours) to provide an Individual
Retirement Annuity ("IRA") as described under Section 408(b) of the Internal
Revenue Code, as amended ("Code"). The contract is amended as follows:

Section 1.
OWNERSHIP - EXCLUSIVE BENEFIT - TRANSFERABILITY - NON FORFEITURE - NON
ASSIGNABLE

The annuitant (you, your, yours) will be the owner of this IRA. This IRA is
established for the exclusive benefit of you and your beneficiaries. Your
interest in this IRA can not be: transferred; forfeited; assigned; discounted;
borrowed against; or pledged as security for any purpose.

Section 2.
PREMIUM PAYMENTS - LIMITATIONS

We will only accept cash contributions. Except in the case of a rollover
contribution allowed by Sections 402(c), 403(a)(4), 403(b)(8) or 48(d)(3), of
the Code or a contribution to a Simplified Employee Pension Program ("SEP")
described in Section 408(k), we will not accept contributions of more than
$2,000 for any tax year. In the case of a spousal IRA, payments to all IRAs for
any tax year can not be more than $2,250. No more than $2,000 of this amount can
be credited to the IRA of either spouse. If the contract is an Immediate Annuity
Contract, no further contributions will be allowed.

Any refund of premiums will be applied, before the close of the calendar year
that follows the year of the refund, toward; a. the payment of future
contributions; or b. the purchase of increased benefits. This does not apply to
premiums that can be attributed to excess contributions.

Section 3.
TIME AND MANNER OF DISTRIBUTION

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, distribution of your
interest under this Section and Section 4 will be made in accordance with the
minimum distribution rules of Sections 401 (a)(9), 408(a)(6) and 408(b)(3) of
the Code and the regulations thereunder. This includes the incidental death
benefit provisions of Section 1.401(a)(9)-2 of the proposed regulations. All of
these are herein incorporated by reference.

Distribution of your interest must start by the first day of April after the
calendar year in which you attain age 70 1/2. The election of one of the pay
out options must be made at least 60 days prior to the date it is to begin. For
each succeeding year, distribution must be made on or before December 31. The
pay out option elected must result in distribution of equal or substantially
equal payments which conform with one of the following: a. over your life; b.
over your life and the life of your designated beneficiary; c. over a specified
period that may not be longer than your life expectancy; d. over a specified
period that may not be longer than the joint life and last survivor expectancy
of you and your designated beneficiary. A single sum payment may also be
elected.

If payments under a chosen option are guaranteed, the period of guarantee may
not exceed your expected life, or the expected lives of the joint and last
survivor of you and the secondary annuitant. This limit also applies to Option 1
under the contract.

Section 4.
DISTRIBUTION UPON DEATH

a.   Immediate Annuity Contracts

If this Rider is attached to an Immediate Annuity Contract and you die,
distribution will continue to be made, if due, as provided in the contract.

b.   Other Annuity Contracts

If this Rider is not attached to an Immediate Annuity Contract, the rules that
follow will apply.

L-7065 (9/93)                                                             Page 1

L-7065 (9/93)                                                             Page 2

If you die after distribution has begun, the unpaid portion of your interest
that remains will continue to be paid under the pay out option in effect.

If you die before a pay out option has begun, the entire interest that remains
must be distributed in accordance with one of the provisions that follow:

1.   Your entire interest will be paid to the beneficiary by December 31 of the
year containing the fifth anniversary of your death.

2.   If your interest is payable to a beneficiary who is not your surviving
spouse, and you have not elected b.1. of this section, then the entire interest
will be distributed under option 3 of the contract starting no later than
December 31 of the year that follows the year of your death. The period of
guarantee will be the lesser of: a. ten years; or b. the expected life of the
beneficiary.

3.   If the beneficiary is your surviving spouse, the spouse may receive pay out
under: Option 2 or 3 of the contract; or b.1. of this section; or the spouse may
treat the contract as his or her own IRA. This election will be deemed to have
been made if such surviving spouse: makes a regular IRA contribution to the
contract; makes a rollover contribution to or from the contract; or fails to
elect any other option provided. Payments under Option 2 or 3 must start prior
to December 31st of the year in which you would have attained age 70 1/2. The
surviving spouse must elect this option within 300 days after your death. If
not, we will pay out under the method of b.2. of this section.

4.   The entire interest will be paid in a lump sum to your estate if: a. you
have not designated a beneficiary prior to your death; or b. the beneficiary
does not survive you.

Section 5.
REPORTS

We will send you an annual report on this IRA.

Section 6.
AMENDMENTS

We will send you a copy of any amendment needed to maintain the contract on a
tax-qualified basis in a timely manner. It will be deemed accepted by you unless
you return it to us within ten days of the time you receive it.

Section 7.
OTHER ITEMS

The term Immediate Annuity Contract means an annuity contract which at issue
provides that a payout of benefits is scheduled to start within eleven months of
its effective date. Unless otherwise provided, you must make an election at
least 60 days before a pay out is to start. The election is made by sending us a
request in writing. An election takes effect only if we receive it while you are
alive.

An individual may satisfy the minimum distribution requirements under Sections
408(a)(6) and 408(b)(3) of the Code by receiving a distribution from one IRA
that is equal to the amount required to satisfy the minimum distribution
requirements for two or more IRAs. For this purpose, the owner of two or more
IRAs may use the "alternative method" described in Notice 88-38, 1988-1 C.B.
524, to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements described above.

Life expectancy and joint and last survivor expectancy are computed by use of
the return multiples contained in Tables V and VI of Section 1.72-9 of the
Income Tax Regulations. Life expectancies will be calculated using your or your
beneficiary's attained age at the time distribution is required to begin.

In the event of conflict between the foregoing provisions of this Rider and any
provision of the contract, the Rider will override the contract. All other
provisions of the contract remain in full force and effect.
