CHANGES FORCED IN PLAN FOR KEMPER BROKERAGE
Date: 31 August 1995
By Bloomberg News

The Kemper Corporation of Long Grove, Ill., said yesterday that regulators had forced it to scrap a proposal to spin off common stock in its brokerage unit to shareholders. Under a revised plan Kemper is submitting to the Securities and Exchange Commission, shareholders would receive preferred stock, instead of common, in Kemper's Everen Capital Corporation unit. The new transaction values Everen at about $101 million, about 60 percent of the value at which Kemper carried the brokerage firm on its books at the end of 1994. The lower valuation is forcing the company to take an $18 million charge against its third-quarter earnings. Kemper said the transaction would satisfy conditions of its agreement to be bought by a group led by the Zurich Insurance Company of Switzerland.
