NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
On August 25, 2011, Unitrin, Inc. changed its name to Kemper Corporation and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under a new ticker symbol, KMPR. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and include the accounts of Kemper Corporation, formerly known as Unitrin, Inc. (“Kemper”), and its subsidiaries (individually and collectively referred to herein as the “Company”) and are unaudited. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
During the third quarter of 2011, Kemper's subsidiary, Fireside Bank, sold its active portfolio of automobile loan receivables. Accordingly, the Company has accounted for Fireside Bank as a discontinued operation beginning with these financial statements and has reclassified the results of Fireside Bank and the related disclosures for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2010 to conform to the current presentation. The Company also accounts for its former Unitrin Business Insurance operations as discontinued operations. See Note 2, "Discontinued Operations," to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements, including certain financial statement footnote disclosures, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) is not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting and has been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation. The preparation of interim financial statements relies heavily on estimates. This factor and certain other factors, such as the seasonal nature of some portions of the insurance business, as well as market conditions, call for caution in drawing specific conclusions from interim results. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in Kemper’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the “2010 Annual Report”).
Adoption of New Accounting Standards and Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issues Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to amend the authoritative literature in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The Company has not adopted any new accounting standards in 2011. There have been nine ASUs issued in 2011 that amend the original text of ASC. Except for ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements and ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, described below, none of the ASUs issued in 2011 are expected to have an impact on the Company. ASU 2010-26, Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts, which was issued in 2010 and also described below, is expected to have an impact on the Company.
In October 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-26, Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. The provisions of the new standard can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The standard amends ASC Topic 944, Financial Services—Insurance, and modifies the definition of the types of costs incurred by insurance entities that can be capitalized in the acquisition of new and renewal contracts. The Company intends to adopt the standard retrospectively beginning with its 2012 consolidated financial statements. The Company anticipates that the adoption of the standard will reduce consolidated shareholders' equity by approximately $100 million.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements. The standard is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The new standard amends the existing fair value definition and enhances disclosure requirements. Other than the enhanced disclosure requirements, the Company does not anticipate that the adoption of the new standard will have a material impact on the Company.
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment. The standard is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. The standard amends ASC Topic 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, and gives companies the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Except for the requirement to perform the qualitative assessment, the Company does not anticipate that the adoption of the new standard will have a material impact on the Company.

Note 2 - Discontinued Operations
In the first quarter of 2011, Kemper's subsidiary, Fireside Bank, paid $0.6 million in incentives, in lieu of future interest, to holders of certificates of deposits to voluntarily close their accounts in advance of their scheduled maturity dates. Fireside Bank redeemed $12.4 million of certificates of deposits in connection with such incentive offers.
In the first quarter of 2011, Fireside Bank also paid $85.2 million, plus $3.6 million of future interest payable through the respective maturity dates, to redeem and close certain certificates of deposits. In the second quarter of 2011, Fireside Bank paid $172.7 million, plus future interest payable of $6.9 million through the respective maturity dates, to redeem and close all certificates of deposits that remained outstanding at March 31, 2011.
During the third quarter of 2011, Fireside Bank sold its active portfolio of automobile loan receivables with a carrying value of $214.2 million, net of Reserve for Loan Losses of $22.9 million, at a gain of $4.5 million before tax. The Company has accounted for Fireside Bank as a discontinued operation beginning with these financial statements and has reclassified the results of Fireside Bank and the related disclosures for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2010 to conform to the current presentation.
Fireside Bank had total capital of $266.2 million at September 30, 2011. Following approval from its regulators, Fireside Bank distributed $250.0 million of its capital to its parent company, Fireside Securities Corporation ("Fireside Securities") in October 2011. Fireside Securities, then in turn, distributed the same amount to its parent company, Kemper Corporation.
The Company has retained Property and Casualty Insurance Reserves for unpaid insured losses of its former Unitrin Business Insurance operations that occurred prior to June 1, 2008, the effective date of the sale of such operations to AmTrust Financial Services, Inc. Property and Casualty Insurance Reserves reported in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include $134.3 million and $155.0 million at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, for such retained liabilities. Changes in the Company's estimate of such retained liabilities after the sale are reported as a separate component of the results of discontinued operations.

Unrealized losses on fixed maturities, which the Company has determined to be temporary at September 30, 2011, were $12.1 million, of which $6.3 million is related to fixed maturities that were in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer. Unrealized losses at September 30, 2011 related to securities for which the Company has recognized credit losses in earnings in the preceding table under the heading “Less Than 12 Months” were insignificant. There were no unrealized losses at September 30, 2011 related to securities for which the Company has recognized credit losses in earnings in the preceding table under the heading “12 Months or Longer.” Included in the preceding table under the heading “12 Months or Longer” are unrealized losses of $0.1 million at September 30, 2011 related to securities for which the Company has previously recognized foreign currency losses in earnings. Investment-grade fixed maturity investments comprised $4.8 million and below-investment-grade fixed maturity investments comprised $7.3 million of the unrealized losses on investments in fixed maturities at September 30, 2011. Unrealized losses for below-investment-grade fixed maturities included unrealized losses totaling $0.1 million for one issuer that the Company previously recognized foreign currency impairment losses in earnings. For the other remaining below-investment-grade fixed maturity investments in an unrealized loss position, the unrealized loss amount, on average, was less than 5% of the amortized cost basis of the investment. At September 30, 2011, the Company did not have the intent to sell these investments and it was not more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell these investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. The Company concluded that these impairments were temporary at September 30, 2011.

Note 3 - Investments (continued)
For equity securities, the Company considers various factors when determining whether a decline in the fair value is other than temporary, including, but not limited to:

• | The financial condition and prospects of the issuer;

• | The length of time and magnitude of the unrealized loss;

• | The volatility of the investment;

• | Analyst recommendations and near term price targets;

• | Opinions of the Company’s external investment managers;

• | Market liquidity;

• | Debt-like characteristics of perpetual preferred stocks and issuer ratings; and

• | The Company’s intentions to sell or ability to hold the investments until recovery.

The vast majority of the Company’s preferred stocks in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2011 are perpetual preferred stocks of financial institutions. The Company considers the debt-like characteristics of perpetual preferred stocks along with issuer ratings when evaluating impairment. All such preferred stocks paid dividends at the stated dividend rate during the twelve-month period preceding the evaluation date. The Company concluded that the declines in the fair values of these perpetual preferred stocks were temporary in nature, largely driven by market conditions, and since the Company intends to hold the securities until recovery, these investments were not considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2011. The Company concluded that the unrealized losses on its investments in common stocks at September 30, 2011 were temporary based on the relative short length and magnitude of the losses and overall market volatility. The Company’s investments in other equity interests include investments in limited liability partnerships that primarily invest in distressed debt, mezzanine debt and secondary transactions. By the nature of their underlying investments, the Company believes that its investments in the limited liability partnerships also exhibit debt-like characteristics which, among other factors, the Company considers when evaluating these investments for impairment. Based on evaluations of the factors in the preceding paragraph, the Company concluded that the declines in the fair values of the Company’s investments in equity securities were temporary at September 30, 2011.

Unrealized losses on fixed maturities, which the Company determined to be temporary at December 31, 2010, were $32.2 million, of which $11.5 million is related to fixed maturities that were in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer. There were no unrealized losses at December 31, 2010 related to securities for which the Company has recognized credit losses in earnings in the preceding table under either the heading “Less Than 12 Months” or the heading “12 Months or Longer.” Included in the preceding table under the heading “12 Months or Longer” are unrealized losses of $0.1 million at December 31, 2010 related to securities for which the Company has recognized foreign currency losses in earnings. Investment-grade fixed maturity investments comprised $28.1 million and below-investment-grade fixed maturity investments comprised $4.1 million of the unrealized losses on investments in fixed maturities at December 31, 2010. Unrealized losses for below-investment-grade fixed maturities included unrealized losses totaling $0.1 million for one issuer that the Company recognized foreign currency impairment losses in earnings for the year ended December 31, 2010. For the other remaining below-investment-grade fixed maturity investments in an unrealized loss position, the unrealized loss amount, on average, was less than 4% of the amortized cost basis of the investment. At December 31, 2010, the Company did not have the intent to sell these investments and it was not more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell these investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. The Company concluded that these impairments were temporary at December 31, 2010.
The vast majority of the Company’s preferred stocks in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2010 are perpetual preferred stocks of financial institutions and public utilities.

All such preferred stocks paid dividends at the stated dividend rate during the twelve-month period preceding the evaluation date. The Company concluded that the declines in the fair values of these perpetual preferred stocks were temporary in nature, largely driven by market conditions, and since the Company intends to hold the securities until recovery, these investments were not considered to be other-than-temporarily

Property and Casualty Insurance Reserves - Gross of Reinsurance at End of Period |  | $ | 1,063.6 |  |  | $ | 1,131.4 |

Property and Casualty Insurance Reserves are estimated based on historical experience patterns and current economic trends. Actual loss experience and loss trends are likely to differ from these historical experience patterns and economic conditions. Loss experience and loss trends emerge over several years from the dates of loss inception. The Company monitors such emerging loss trends on a quarterly basis. Changes in such estimates are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the period of change.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company reduced its property and casualty insurance reserves by $28.2 million to recognize favorable development of losses and loss adjustment expenses (“LAE”) from prior accident years. Personal lines insurance losses and LAE reserves developed favorably by $27.6 million and commercial lines insurance losses and LAE reserves developed favorably by $0.6 million. The personal lines insurance losses and LAE reserves developed favorably due primarily to the emergence of more favorable loss trends than expected for the 2010, 2009 and 2008 accident years.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company reduced its property and casualty insurance reserves by $19.1 million to recognize favorable development of losses and LAE from prior accident years. Personal lines insurance losses and LAE reserves developed favorably by $19.2 million and commercial lines insurance losses and LAE reserves developed unfavorably by $0.1 million. The personal lines insurance losses and LAE reserves developed favorably due primarily to the emergence of more favorable loss trends than expected for the 2009, 2007 and 2006 accident years.
The Company cannot predict whether losses and LAE will develop favorably or unfavorably from the amounts reported in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company believes that any such development will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated shareholders’ equity, but could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial results for a given period.

Note 6 - Long-term Equity-based Compensation Plans
On May 4, 2011, Kemper's shareholders approved the 2011 Omnibus Equity Plan (“Omnibus Plan”). The Omnibus Plan replaced the Company's previous employee stock option plans, director stock option plan and restricted stock plan (collectively, the “Prior Plans”). Awards previously granted under the Prior Plans remain outstanding in accordance with their original terms. Beginning May 4, 2011, equity-based compensation awards may only be granted under the Omnibus Plan. A maximum number of 10,000,000 shares of Kemper common stock may be issued under the Omnibus Plan (the "Share Authorization"). As of September 30, 2011, there were 9,907,950 common shares available for future grants under the Omnibus Plan, of which

KEMPER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(Unaudited)
Note 6 - Long-term Equity-based Compensation Plans (continued)
528,225 shares related to performance-based restricted stock awards outstanding under the Prior Plans, were reserved for future grants.
The design of the Omnibus Plan provides for fungible use of shares to determine the number of shares available for future grants, with a fungible conversion factor of three to one, such that the Share Authorization will be reduced at two different rates, depending on the type of award granted. Each share of Kemper common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options or stock appreciation rights will reduce the number of shares available for future grant under the Share Authorization by one share, while each share of Kemper common stock issued pursuant to “full value awards” will reduce the number of shares available for future grant under the Share Authorization by three shares. “Full value awards” are awards, other than stock options or stock appreciation rights, that are settled by the issuance of shares of Kemper common stock and include restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, if settled with stock, and other stock-based awards.
Share-based compensation expense for all of the Company’s long-term equity-based compensation plans was $4.4 million and $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total unamortized compensation expense related to nonvested awards of such plans at September 30, 2011 was $6.3 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of each option on the date of grant. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model for options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

| Nine Months Ended
| Sep 30, 2011 |  | Sep 30, 2010
Range of Valuation Assumptions |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Expected Volatility | 41.26 | % | - | 55.16% |  | 40.55 | % | - | 50.51%
Risk-free Interest Rate | 1.30 |  | - | 2.87 |  | 1.91 |  | - | 3.20
Expected Dividend Yield | 3.15 |  | - | 3.38 |  | 3.25 |  | - | 3.39
Weighted-Average Expected Life (in Years) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Employee Grants | 3.5 |  | - | 7 |  | 4 |  | - | 7
Director Grants | 6 |  | 6

Option and stock appreciation right activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 is presented below:

| Shares Subject to Options |  | Weighted- Average Exercise Price Per Share |  | Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Life (in Years) |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($ in Millions)
Outstanding at Beginning of the Year | 4,004,546 |  |  | $ | 42.34 |  |  |  |  |

Exercisable at End of Period | 3,312,613 |  |  | $ | 43.07 |  |  | 3.66 |  |  | $ | 1.8 |

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were $9.11 per option and $7.70 per option, respectively. Total intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Cash received from option exercises and the total tax benefits realized for tax deductions from option exercises were insignificant for both the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.
Recipients of restricted stock are entitled to full dividend and voting rights on the same basis as all other outstanding shares of Kemper common stock, and all awards are subject to forfeiture until certain restrictions have lapsed. The grant-date fair values of time-based restricted stock awards are determined using the closing price of Kemper common stock on the date of grant. The

grant-date fair values of the performance-based restricted stock awards are determined using the Monte Carlo simulation method.
Activity related to nonvested restricted stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 is presented below:

| Restricted Shares |  | Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share
Nonvested Balance at Beginning of the Year | 218,156 |  |  | $ | 23.72 |

Forfeited | (907 | ) |  | 25.60 |
Nonvested Balance at End of Period | 301,853 |  |  | $ | 26.62 |

Restricted stock granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 includes 69,950 shares of time-vested restricted stock and 65,475 shares of performance-based restricted stock. The nonvested balance of restricted stock at September 30, 2011 was comprised of 125,778 shares of time-vested restricted stock and 176,075 shares of performance-based restricted stock. The number of additional shares that would be granted if the Company were to meet or exceed the maximum performance levels related to the outstanding performance-based shares was 176,075 shares (as "full value awards," the equivalent of 528,225 shares under the Share Authorization) at September 30, 2011. The total fair value of restricted stock that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $1.4 million and the tax benefits for tax deductions realized from the vesting on such restricted stock was $0.5 million. The total fair value of restricted stock that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $2.2 million and the tax benefits for tax deductions realized from the vesting on such restricted stock was $0.8 million.

Note 7 - Income from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share
The Company’s awards of restricted stock contain a right to receive non-forfeitable dividends and participate in the undistributed earnings with common shareholders. Accordingly, the Company is required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings per share. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of Basic Income from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share and Diluted Income from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

In January 2011, the Company received a refund resulting from its 2009 net operating and capital loss carryback claim. The U.S. Joint Committee on Taxation's ("JCT") approval is required by law for all refunds in excess of $2 million. During the third quarter of 2011, the Company extended the statute of limitations related to its 2007 tax year until September 30, 2012 to allow the JCT to complete its review and formally approve the refund. The Company does not anticipate a material modification to the claim as a result of this review.
During the third quarter of 2011, the Florida Department of Revenue completed its audit of the 2007-2009 income tax returns of Kemper's subsidiary, United Insurance Company of America ("United"), and accepted the returns as filed.
Tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 included interest expense of $0.2 million related to unrecognized tax benefits related to tax positions of prior years. Tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 included an interest benefit of $2.3 million related to unrecognized tax benefits, which was comprised of an interest benefit of $2.8 million resulting from the expiration of the 2006 federal statute of limitations and $0.5 million of interest expense related to tax positions of prior years.
Income taxes paid, net of income tax refunds of $24.9 million, were $18.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Income taxes paid were $49.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

On September 26, 2011, the DOL published an Employee Benefits Security Administration notice in the Federal Register indicating that they are

The Company is engaged, through its subsidiaries, in the property and casualty insurance and life and health insurance. The Company conducts its operations through four operating segments: Kemper Preferred, Unitrin Specialty, Unitrin Direct and Life and Health Insurance.
The Kemper Preferred segment provides preferred and standard risk personal automobile insurance, homeowners insurance and other personal insurance through independent agents. The Unitrin Specialty segment provides automobile insurance to individuals and businesses in the non-standard and specialty market through independent agents. The non-standard automobile insurance market consists of individuals and companies that have difficulty obtaining standard or preferred risk insurance, usually because of their adverse driving records or claim or credit histories.

The Company’s investments in Fixed Maturities that are classified as Level 1 in the two preceding tables primarily consist of U.S. Treasury Bonds and Notes. The Company’s investments in Equity Securities that are classified as Level 1 in the two preceding tables consist of either investments in publicly-traded common stocks, or exchange traded funds. The Company’s investments in Fixed Maturities that are classified as Level 2 in the two preceding tables primarily consist of investments in corporate bonds and redeemable preferred stocks, states and political subdivisions, and bonds and mortgage-backed securities
of U.S. government agencies. The Company’s investments in Equity Securities that are classified as Level 2 in the two preceding tables primarily consist of investments in preferred stocks. The Company uses a leading, nationally recognized provider of market data and analytics to price the vast majority of the Company’s Level 2 measurements. The provider utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information. Because many fixed maturity securities do not trade on a daily basis, the provider’s evaluated pricing applications apply available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing to prepare evaluations. In addition, the provider uses model processes to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios. The

pricing provider’s models and processes also take into account market convention. For each asset class, teams of its evaluators gather information from market sources and integrate relevant credit information, perceived market movements and sector news into the evaluated pricing applications and models. The Company generally validates the measurements obtained from its
primary pricing provider by comparing them with measurements obtained from one additional pricing provider that provides either prices from recent market transactions or quotes in inactive markets or evaluations based on its own proprietary models.
The Company investigates significant differences related to the values provided. On completion of its investigation, management exercises judgment to determine the price selected and whether adjustments, if any, to the price obtained from the Company’s primary pricing provider would warrant classification of the price as Level 3. In instances where a measurement cannot be obtained from either pricing provider, the Company generally will evaluate bid prices from one or more binding quotes obtained from market makers to value investments in inactive markets and classified by the Company as Level 2. The Company generally classifies securities when it receives non-binding quotes or indications as Level 3 securities unless the Company can validate the quote or indication against recent transactions in the market. For securities classified as Level 3, the Company either uses valuations provided by third party fund managers, third party appraisers or the Company’s own internal valuations. These valuations typically employ valuation techniques, including earnings multiples based on comparable public securities, industry specific non-earnings based multiples or discounted cash flow models. Valuations classified as Level 3 by the Company generally consist of investments in various private placement securities of non-rated entities. In rare cases, if the private placement security has only been outstanding for a short amount of time, the Company, after considering the initial assumptions used in acquiring an investment, considers the original purchase price as representative of the fair value.
At September 30, 2011, the Company had unfunded commitments to invest an additional $67.9 million in certain private equity and mezzanine debt funds that will be included in Other Equity Interests.

Note 13 - Contingencies
In the ordinary course of their businesses, Kemper and its subsidiaries are involved in legal proceedings, including lawsuits, regulatory examinations and inquiries. Some of these proceedings involve matters particular to the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries, while others pertain to business practices in the industries in which Kemper or its subsidiaries operate. Some lawsuits seek class action status that, if granted, could expose Kemper or its subsidiaries to potentially significant liability by virtue of the size of the putative classes. These matters can raise complicated issues and may be subject to many uncertainties, including, but not limited to: (i) the underlying facts of the matter; (ii) unsettled questions of law; (iii) issues unique to the jurisdiction where the matter is pending; (iv) damage claims, including claims for punitive damages, that are disproportionate to the actual economic loss incurred; and (v) the legal, regulatory and political environments faced by large corporations generally and the insurance and banking sectors specifically. Accordingly, the outcomes of these matters are difficult to predict, and the amounts or ranges of potential loss at particular points in time are in most cases difficult or impossible to ascertain.
Certain subsidiaries of Kemper, like many property and casualty insurers, are defending a significant volume of lawsuits in southern coastal states arising out of property damage caused by catastrophes and storms, including major hurricanes. In these matters, the plaintiffs seek compensatory and punitive damages, and equitable relief. The Company believes its relevant subsidiaries have meritorious defenses to assert in these proceedings, and will vigorously contest these matters.
The Company believes that resolution of its pending legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated shareholders’ equity. However, given the unpredictability of the legal environment, there can be no assurance that one or more of these matters will not produce a result which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial results for any given period.
The legal and regulatory environments within which Kemper and its subsidiaries conduct their businesses are often unpredictable. Industry practices that were considered legally-compliant and reasonable for years may suddenly be deemed unacceptable by virtue of an unexpected court or regulatory ruling. Anticipating such shifts in the law and the impact they may have on the Company and its operations is a difficult task, and there can be no assurances that the Company will not encounter such shifts in the future.

KEMPER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(Unaudited)
Note 14 - Related Parties
One of Kemper's directors, Mr. Fayez Sarofim, is the Chairman of the Board, President and the majority shareholder of Fayez Sarofim & Co. (“FS&C”), a registered investment advisory firm. Kemper's subsidiary, Trinity Universal Insurance Company (“Trinity”), had $101.2 million in assets managed by FS&C at September 30, 2011, under an agreement with FS&C whereby FS&C provides investment management services with respect to certain assets of Trinity for a fee based on the fair market value of the assets under management. Such agreement is terminable by either party at any time upon 30 days advance written notice. Investment expenses incurred in connection with such agreement were $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
FS&C also provides investment management services with respect to certain funds of the Company’s defined benefit pension plan. At September 30, 2011, the Company’s defined benefit pension plan had $95.1 million in assets managed by FS&C. Investment expenses in connection with such agreement were $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.
With respect to the Company’s defined contribution plans, one of the alternative investment choices afforded to participating employees is the Dreyfus Appreciation Fund, an open-end, diversified managed investment fund. FS&C provides investment management services to the Dreyfus Appreciation Fund as a sub-investment advisor. According to published reports filed by FS&C with the SEC, the Dreyfus Appreciation Fund pays monthly fees to FS&C according to a graduated schedule computed at an annual rate based on the value of the Dreyfus Appreciation Fund’s average daily net assets. The Company does not compensate FS&C for services provided to the Dreyfus Appreciation Fund. Participants in the Company’s defined contribution plans had allocated $17.0 million for investment in the Dreyfus Appreciation Fund at September 30, 2011, representing 6.3% of the total amount invested in the Company’s defined contribution plans at September 30, 2011.
The Company believes that the services described above have been provided on terms no less favorable to the Company than could have been negotiated with non-affiliated third parties.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Underlying Combined Ratio
The following discussions for the Kemper Preferred, Unitrin Specialty and Unitrin Direct segments use the non-GAAP financial measures of (i) Underlying Losses and LAE and (ii) Underlying Combined Ratio. Underlying Losses and LAE (also referred to in the discussion as “Current Year Non-catastrophe Losses and LAE”) exclude the impact of catastrophe losses, and loss and LAE reserve development from the Company’s Incurred Losses and LAE, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. The Underlying Combined Ratio is computed by adding the Current Year Non-catastrophe Losses and LAE Ratio with the Incurred Expense Ratio. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is the combined ratio, which uses total incurred losses and LAE, including the impact of catastrophe losses, and loss and LAE reserve development. The Company believes Underlying Losses and LAE and the Underlying Combined Ratio is useful to investors and is used by management to reveal the trends in the Company's Property and Casualty insurance businesses that may be obscured by catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development. These catastrophe losses may cause the Company's loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their incidence of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a significant impact on incurred losses and LAE and the combined ratio. Prior year reserve developments are caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves. Because reserve development relates to the re-estimation of losses from earlier periods, it has no bearing on the performance of the Company's insurance products in the current period. The Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing the Company's underwriting performance.
Net Operating Income (Loss)
Net Operating Income (Loss) is an after-tax, non-GAAP measure and is computed by excluding from Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations the after-tax impact of 1) Net Realized Gains (Losses) on Sales of Investments, 2) Net Impairment Losses Recognized in Earnings related to investments and 3) other significant non-recurring or infrequent items that may not be indicative of ongoing operations. Significant non-recurring items are excluded when (a) the nature of the charge or gain is such that it is reasonably unlikely to recur within two years, and (b) there has been no similar charge or gain within the prior two years.
The Company believes that Net Operating Income (Loss) provides investors with a valuable measure of its ongoing performance because it reveals underlying operational performance trends that otherwise might be less apparent if the items were not excluded. Net Realized Gains on Sales of Investments and Net Impairment Losses Recognized in Earnings related to investments included in the Company's results may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by business decisions and external economic developments such as capital market conditions that impact the values of the company's investments, the timing of which is unrelated to the insurance underwriting process. Significant non-recurring items are excluded because, by their nature, they are not indicative of the Company's business or economic trends.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for the comparable GAAP financial measures, as they do not fully recognize the overall underwriting profitability of our business.

Earned Premiums in the Kemper Preferred segment decreased by $24.3 million and $5.3 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to lower volume, partially offset by higher average premium rates. Volume decreased due, in part, to Kemper Preferred’s decision to maintain its underwriting discipline and increase premium rates while facing increased competition in a soft personal lines insurance market. Kemper Preferred expects earned premiums to decrease over the next few quarters as lower volume is partially offset by higher average premium rates. Earned premiums on automobile insurance decreased by $26.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, due to lower volume, partially offset by higher average premium rates. Earned premiums on automobile insurance decreased by $7.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, due primarily to lower volume and to a lesser extent, lower average premium rates. The weighted-average number of automobile insurance policies in force decreased by 8.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. The weighted-average number of automobile insurance policies in force for the three months ended September 30, 2011 was 6.7% lower, compared to the same period in 2010. Earned premiums on homeowners insurance increased by $2.4 million and $1.4 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to higher average premium rates, partially offset by lower volume. The weighted-average number of homeowners insurance policies in force decreased by 3.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. The weighted-average number of homeowners insurance policies in force decreased by 1.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. Earned premiums on other personal insurance increased by $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to higher average premium rates, partially offset by lower volume.
Net Investment Income in the Kemper Preferred segment decreased by $0.5 million and $3.9 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to lower net investment income from Equity Method Limited Liability Investments and lower net investment income from fixed maturities, partially offset by higher dividends on equity securities. Net investment income from Equity Method Limited Liability Investments was $7.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $11.0 million in the same period in 2010. Net Investment Income included a net investment loss of $2.2 million from Equity Method Limited Liability Investments for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to net investment income from Equity Method Limited Liability Investments of $2.9 million in the same period in 2010.
Operating results in the Kemper Preferred segment decreased by $109.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, due primarily to higher incurred catastrophe losses and LAE (excluding development), higher underlying losses and LAE as a percentage of earned premiums, the impact of lower favorable loss and LAE reserve development (including catastrophe development) and higher insurance expenses as a percentage of earned premiums. Underlying incurred losses and LAE exclude the impact of catastrophes, and loss and LAE reserve development.
Operating results in the Kemper Preferred segment decreased by $32.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011,

Earned Premiums in the Unitrin Specialty segment decreased by $23.2 million and $6.0 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due to lower earned premiums for both personal and commercial automobile insurance. Personal automobile insurance earned premiums decreased by $19.7 million and $5.4 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to lower volume and, to a lesser extent, lower average earned premium per policy. Throughout 2010, Unitrin Specialty’s personal automobile insurance policies in force decreased due to economic conditions, increased competition and higher premium rates, particularly in California. Personal automobile insurance policies in force were approximately 317,000 at September 30, 2011, compared to 329,000 at the beginning of 2011 and approximately 351,000 at the beginning of 2010. Unitrin Specialty expects that personal automobile insurance policies in force will be down throughout the remainder of 2011. Commercial automobile insurance earned premiums decreased by $3.5 million and $0.6 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to same periods in 2010, due primarily to lower volume. Commercial automobile insurance volume has decreased due primarily to a smaller renewal book of business, partially offset by higher retention rates.
Net Investment Income in the Unitrin Specialty segment decreased by $2.1 million and $2.4 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to lower net investment income from Equity Method Limited Liability Investments. The Unitrin Specialty segment reported net investment income of $3.2 million from Equity Method Limited Liability Investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $5.3 million for the same period in 2010. The Unitrin Specialty segment reported net investment losses of $0.9 million from Equity Method Limited Liability Investments for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to net investment income of $1.4 million for the same period in 2010.
Operating Profit in the Unitrin Specialty segment decreased by $5.2 million and $1.3 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to lower operating profit in personal automobile insurance, offset by higher operating profit in commercial automobile insurance and other insurance.
Personal automobile insurance operating profit decreased by $7.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, due primarily to higher underlying incurred losses and LAE as a percentage of personal automobile insurance earned premiums, higher insurance expenses as a percentage of personal automobile insurance earned premiums and lower net investment income, partially offset by the favorable effects of loss and LAE reserve development. Underlying incurred losses and LAE exclude the impact of catastrophes and loss and LAE reserve development. Underlying incurred losses and LAE as a percentage of personal automobile insurance earned premiums increased due primarily to higher frequency of losses and, to a lesser extent, higher severity of losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. Loss and LAE reserve development on personal automobile insurance had a favorable effect of $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to an adverse effect of $1.0 million for the same period in 2010. Insurance expenses as a percentage of personal automobile insurance earned premiums increased due primarily to investment in policy and billing systems.

three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, due primarily to lower net investment income and higher insurance expenses as a percentage of personal automobile insurance earned premiums, partially offset by the favorable effects of loss and LAE reserve development. Insurance expenses as a percentage of personal automobile insurance earned premiums increased due primarily to investments in policy and billing systems. Loss and LAE reserve development on personal automobile insurance had favorable effects of $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $1.0 million for the same period in 2010.
Commercial automobile insurance operating profit increased by $1.6 million and $0.8 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to the favorable effects of loss and LAE reserve development and lower underlying incurred losses and LAE as a percentage of commercial automobile insurance earned premiums. Loss and LAE reserve development on commercial automobile insurance had favorable effects of $3.0 million and $0.8 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to favorable effects of $1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2010. Underlying incurred losses and LAE as a percentage of commercial automobile insurance earned premiums decreased for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to lower severity, partially offset by higher frequency of losses.
Other insurance consists of certain reinsurance pools in run-off and other personal insurance in run-off. Other insurance operating loss was $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $0.6 million for the same period in 2010. Other insurance operating profit was $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to an operating loss of $0.2 million for the same period in 2010. Adverse Loss and LAE reserve development on certain reinsurance pools in run-off was $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $0.7 million for the same period in 2010. Loss and LAE reserve development on these reinsurance pools was not significant for either of the three months ended September 30, 2011 or September 30, 2010. Insurance expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 included a reduction of expense of $0.8 million related to a change in estimate for uncollectible reinsurance. Loss and LAE reserve development on other personal insurance had an adverse effect of $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and was almost entirely related to two liability claims, one from 2003 and the other from 2005.
Net Operating Income in the Unitrin Specialty segment decreased by $3.6 million and $0.9 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to the lower Operating Profit. The Unitrin Specialty segment’s effective income tax rate differs from the federal statutory income tax rate due primarily to tax-exempt investment income and dividends received deductions. Tax-exempt investment income and dividends received deductions were $8.0 million and $2.5 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to $8.8 million and $2.9 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2010.

Earned Premiums in the Life and Health Insurance segment increased by $2.6 million and $0.3 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to higher accident and health insurance earned premiums. Earned premiums on accident and health insurance increased by $4.1 million and $1.4 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to higher average premium rates, partially offset by lower volume of insurance.

Policyholders’ benefits on life insurance were $193.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $202.4 million in 2010, a decrease of $9.4 million.

Insurance Expenses in the Life and Health Insurance segment increased by $9.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, due primarily to higher commission and fringe benefit expenses partially attributable to an increase in the number of career agents employed and higher amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs. The Company wrote off $14.8 million of goodwill in the third quarter of 2010 related to its health insurance subsidiary, Reserve National.
Operating Profit in the Life and Health Insurance segment was $34.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $26.9 million for the same period in 2010. Operating Profit increased for the three months ended September 30, 2011 due primarily to the impact of a charge to write off goodwill in 2010 and lower Policyholders’ Benefits and Incurred Losses and LAE, partially offset by the lower net investment income and higher insurance expenses. Policyholders’ Benefits and Incurred Losses and LAE decreased by $8.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, due primarily to lower incurred losses and LAE on property insurance and, to a lesser extent, on life insurance and accident and health insurance. Incurred Losses and LAE on property insurance were $8.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $15.3 million in 2010.

Insurance Expenses in the Life and Health Insurance segment increased by $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, due primarily to higher commission and fringe benefit expenses partially attributable to an increase in the number of career agents employed and higher amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs.

Investment Quality and Concentrations
The Company’s fixed maturity investment portfolio is comprised primarily of high-grade municipal, corporate and agency bonds. At September 30, 2011, 94% of the Company’s fixed maturity investment portfolio was rated investment grade, which is defined as a security having a rating of AAA, AA, A or BBB from Standard & Poors (“S&P”); a rating of Aaa, Aa, A or Baa from Moody’s Investors Services (“Moody’s”); a rating of AAA, AA, A or BBB from Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”) or a rating from the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”) of 1 or 2. The Company has not made significant investments in securities that are directly or indirectly related to sub-prime mortgage loans including, but not limited to, collateralized debt obligations and structured investment vehicles.
The following table summarizes the credit quality of the Company’s fixed maturity investment portfolio at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Gross unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in below-investment-grade fixed maturities were $7.3 million and $4.1 million at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. At September 30, 2011, the Company had $289.2 million of bonds issued by states and political subdivisions that had been pre-refunded with U.S. Government and Government Agencies and Authorities obligations held in trust for the full payment of principal and interest. At September 30, 2011, the Company had $1,614.1 million of investments in bonds issued by states and political subdivisions, commonly referred to as “municipal bonds,” that had not been pre-refunded, of which $300.4 million were enhanced with insurance from monoline bond insurers. The Company’s municipal bond investment credit-risk strategy is to focus on the underlying credit rating of the issuer and not to rely on the credit enhancement provided by the monoline bond insurer when making investment decisions. To that end, the underlying rating of nearly 94% of the Company’s entire municipal bond portfolio that has not been pre-refunded is AA or higher, the majority of which are direct obligations of states.

The Company’s short-term investments primarily consist of overnight repurchase agreements and money market funds. At September 30, 2011, the Company had $50.0 million invested in overnight repurchase agreements primarily collateralized by securities issued by the U.S. government and $63.2 million invested in money market funds which primarily invest in U.S. Treasury securities. At the time of borrowing, the repurchase agreements generally require the borrower to provide collateral to the Company at least equal to the amount borrowed from the Company. The Company bears some investment risk in the

Interest and Other Expenses
Interest and Other Expenses was $62.0 million and $21.4 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to $49.9 million and $16.1 million for the same periods in 2010. Interest and Other Expenses increased by $12.1 million and $5.3 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010, due primarily to higher levels of debt outstanding, higher postretirement benefit costs and higher expenses related to changing the Company's name to Kemper Corporation.
Income Taxes
The Company’s effective income tax rate from continuing operations differs from the Federal statutory income tax rate due primarily to the effects of tax-exempt investment income and dividends received deductions, the effects of the write-off of goodwill, and the net effects of state income taxes. Tax-exempt investment income and dividends received deductions were $38.4 million and $12.3 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to $41.2 million and $13.5 million for the same periods in 2010. In the third quarter of 2010, the Company wrote off $14.8 million of goodwill that is not deductible for income taxes. State income tax expense, net of federal benefit, from continuing operations was $1.2 million and $0.1 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011. State income tax expense, net of federal benefit, from continuing operations was $0.8 million and $0.1 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2010.
The Company’s effective income tax rate from discontinued operations differs from the Federal statutory income tax rate due primarily to the net effects of state income taxes. State income tax benefit, net of federal expense, from discontinued operations was $1.0 million and $0.5 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011. State income tax expense from discontinued operations for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2011 included benefits of $2.9 million and $1.1 million, net of federal taxes, respectively, for decreases in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance related to Fireside Bank. State income tax expense, net of federal benefit, from discontinued operations was $0.6 million and $0.2 million for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2010. State income tax expense for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2010 included benefits of $0.5 million and $0.2 million, net of federal taxes, respectively, for decreases in the deferred tax asset

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company did not adopt any new accounting standards in 2011. The Company has not yet adopted ASU 2010-26, Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts, ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements, and ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment. ASU 2010-26, ASU 2011-04 and ASU 2011-08 are discussed in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the heading “Adoption of New Accounting Standards and Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted.”
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Kemper has a three-year, $245 million, unsecured, revolving credit agreement, expiring October 30, 2012, with a group of financial institutions (the “2012 Credit Agreement”). The 2012 Credit Agreement provides for fixed and floating rate advances for periods up to six months at various interest rates. The 2012 Credit Agreement contains various financial covenants, including limits on total debt to total capitalization, consolidated net worth and minimum risk-based capital ratios for Kemper's largest insurance subsidiaries, United and Trinity. Proceeds from advances under the 2012 Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of existing indebtedness. During the third quarter of 2011, Kemper borrowed $95.0 million under the 2012 Credit Agreement. The proceeds from the borrowing were used, in part, to make a voluntary contribution of $83.7 million to fully fund the Company's defined benefit pension plan under the funding requirements of ERISA. The contribution consisted of cash of $32.2 million and 7,309,764 shares of Intermec common stock purchased from Kemper's subsidiary, Trinity, with some of the proceeds (see Note 10, Pension Benefits and Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions, to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Kemper's subsidiary, United, paid a cash dividend of $25.0 million to Kemper in September 2011, which was used along with cash on hand to repay $30.0 million of the borrowings under the 2012 Credit Agreement during the third quarter of 2011. Following these transactions, there was $65.0 million of advances outstanding and $180.0 million available for future borrowings under the 2012 Credit Agreement at September 30, 2011. As described below, during October 2011 the borrowings under the 2012 Credit Agreement were repaid in full. There were no outstanding borrowings under the 2012 Credit Agreement at December 31, 2010.
Various state insurance laws restrict the ability of Kemper's insurance subsidiaries to pay dividends without regulatory approval. Such insurance laws generally restrict the amount of dividends paid in an annual period to the greater of statutory net income from the previous year or 10% of statutory capital and surplus. Kemper's direct insurance subsidiaries paid dividends consisting of $70.5 million in cash to Kemper during the first nine months of 2011 and $25.0 million of cash during the third quarter of 2011. Kemper estimates that its direct insurance subsidiaries would be able to pay $114.1 million in dividends to Kemper during the remainder of 2011. Such dividends will not require prior regulatory approval.
Kemper's subsidiary, Fireside Bank, is chartered as an industrial bank and is regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the California Department of Financial Institutions (“CDFI”). Fireside Bank has agreed not to pay dividends without the prior approval of the FDIC and the CDFI. Following approval from its regulators, Fireside Bank distributed $250 million of its capital to its parent company, Fireside Securities Corporation ("Fireside Securities") in October 2011. Fireside Securities, then in turn, distributed the same amount to its parent company, Kemper. In addition to the $250 million distribution in October 2011, Fireside Bank expects to return at least $15 million of capital to Kemper. Kemper used a portion of the distribution to repay in full its borrowings under the 2012 Credit Agreement in October 2011. Fireside Bank has begun the process of surrendering its industrial bank charter. Upon completion of this process, Fireside Bank will cease to be regulated by the FDIC and CDFI, and accordingly, will be able to pay dividends and return capital to Kemper without prior regulatory approval.
Fireside Bank has a $30 million line of credit with Kemper. In April 2011, Fireside Bank used its cash and investments, cash flow from operations and $30 million of proceeds from its line of credit with Kemper to redeem all remaining certificates of deposits, plus future interest of $6.9 million, that were outstanding at March 31, 2011. The line of credit was repaid during the second quarter of 2011 and was undrawn at September 30, 2011.
On February 2, 2011, the Board of Directors approved a new repurchase program under which Kemper is authorized to repurchase up to $300 million worth of its common stock. During the first nine months of 2011, Kemper repurchased approximately 0.7 million shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $21.7 million in open market transactions.
Kemper paid a quarterly dividend to shareholders of $0.24 per common share in each of the first three quarters of 2011. Dividends paid were $43.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
Kemper directly held cash and investments totaling $37.6 million at September 30, 2011, compared to $60.5 million at December 31, 2010. Sources available for the repayment of indebtedness, repurchases of common stock, future shareholder dividend payments, and the payment of interest on Kemper's senior notes include cash and investments directly held by Kemper, receipt of dividends from Kemper's subsidiaries and borrowings under the 2012 Credit Agreement.
The primary sources of funds for Kemper's insurance subsidiaries are premiums, investment income and proceeds from the sales and maturity of investments. The primary uses of funds are the payment of policyholder benefits under life insurance contracts, claims under property and casualty insurance contracts and accident and health insurance contracts, the payment of commissions and general expenses and the purchase of investments. Generally, there is a time lag between when premiums are collected and when policyholder benefits and insurance claims are paid. Accordingly, during periods of growth, insurance companies typically experience positive operating cash flows and are able to invest a portion of their operating cash flows to fund future policyholder benefits and claims. During periods in which premium revenues decline, insurance companies may experience negative cash flows from operations and may need to sell investments to fund payments to policyholders and claimants. In addition, if the Company’s property and casualty insurance subsidiaries experience several significant catastrophic events over a relatively short period of time, investments may have to be sold in advance of their maturity dates to fund payments, which could either result in investment gains or losses. Management believes that its property and casualty insurance subsidiaries maintain adequate levels of liquidity in the event that they experience several future catastrophic events over a relatively short period of time. Prior to the sale of its active portfolio of automobile loan receivables, the primary sources of funds for Fireside Bank also included the repayments of automobile loans, interest on automobile loans, investment income and proceeds from the sales and maturity of investments. The primary uses of funds for Fireside Bank are general expenses and purchase of investments. Prior to the redemption of its Certificates of Deposits, the primary uses of funds for Fireside Bank also included the repayment of customer deposits and interest paid to depositors.
Net Cash Used by Operating Activities was $10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities of $60.2 million for the same period in 2010.
Net Cash Used by Financing Activities decreased by $20.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. Net cash used by Repayments of Certificates of Deposits was $321.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to net cash used of $278.3 million for the same period in 2010. As discussed above, Kemper borrowed $95.0 million and repaid $30.0 million under the 2012 Credit Agreement during the first nine months of 2011. Kemper used $21.7 million of cash during the first nine months of 2011 to repurchase shares of its common stock, compared to $24.5 million of cash used to repurchase shares of its common stock in the same period of 2010. Kemper used $43.7 million of cash to pay dividends for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $41.1 million of cash used to pay dividends in the same period of 2010. The quarterly dividend rate was $0.24 per common share for each of the first three quarters of 2011, compared to $0.22 per common share for the same periods in 2010.
Cash available for investment activities in total is dependent on cash flow from Operating Activities and Financing Activities and the level of cash the Company elects to maintain. Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities increased by $397.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period of 2010. Purchases of Fixed Maturities exceeded Sales of Fixed Maturities by $29.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Kemper's subsidiaries conduct their continuing operations in two industries: property and casualty insurance and life and health insurance. Accordingly, the Company is subject to several industry-specific accounting principles under GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The process of estimation is inherently uncertain. Accordingly, actual results could ultimately differ materially from the estimated amounts reported in a company’s financial statements. Different assumptions are likely to result in different estimates of reported amounts.

Critical Accounting Estimates (continued)
The Company’s critical accounting policies most sensitive to estimates include the valuation of investments, the valuation of reserves for property and casualty insurance incurred losses and LAE, the assessment of recoverability of goodwill, the valuation of pension benefit obligations and the valuation of postretirement benefit obligations other than pensions. The Company’s critical accounting policies are described in the MD&A included in the 2010 Annual Report. Except for the elimination of valuation of loan losses as a critical accounting estimate and policy, there has been no material change, subsequent to December 31, 2010, to the information previously disclosed in the 2010 Annual Report with respect to these critical accounting estimates and the Company’s critical accounting policies.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Company is required to provide the following disclosures about Market Risk.
Quantitative Information About Market Risk
The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at both September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 included three types of financial instruments subject to material market risk disclosures required by the SEC:

1) | Investments in Fixed Maturities;

2) | Investments in Equity Securities; and

3) | Notes Payable.

The Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2010 included two additional types of financial instrument, Automobile Loan Receivables and Certificates of Deposits, subject to material market risk disclosures required by the SEC. Investments in Fixed Maturities, Automobile Loan Receivables, Certificates of Deposits and Notes Payable are subject to material interest rate risk. The Company’s Investments in Equity Securities include common and preferred stocks and, accordingly, are subject to material equity price risk and interest rate risk, respectively.
For purposes of this disclosure, market risk sensitive financial instruments are divided into two categories: financial instruments acquired for trading purposes and financial instruments acquired for purposes other than trading. The Company’s market risk sensitive financial instruments are generally classified as held for purposes other than trading. The Company has no significant holdings of financial instruments acquired for trading purposes. The Company has no significant holdings of derivatives.
The Company measures its sensitivity to market risk by evaluating the change in its financial assets and liabilities relative to fluctuations in interest rates and equity prices. The evaluation is made using instantaneous changes in interest rates and equity prices on a static balance sheet to determine the effect such changes would have on the Company’s market value at risk and the resulting pre-tax effect on Shareholders’ Equity. The changes chosen represent the Company’s view of adverse changes which are reasonably possible over a one-year period. The selection of the changes chosen should not be construed as the Company’s prediction of future market events, but rather an illustration of the impact of such possible events.
For the interest rate sensitivity analysis presented below, the Company assumed an adverse and instantaneous increase of 100 basis points in the yield curve at both September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 for Investments in Fixed Maturities. Such 100 basis point increase in the yield curve may not necessarily result in a corresponding 100 basis point increase in the interest rate for all investments in fixed maturities. For example, a 100 basis point increase in the yield curve for risk-free, taxable investments in fixed maturities may not result in a 100 basis point increase for tax-exempt investments in fixed maturities. For Investments in Fixed Maturities, the Company also anticipated changes in cash flows due to changes in the likelihood that investments would be called or pre-paid prior to their contractual maturity. All other variables were held constant. For preferred stock equity securities, the Company assumed an adverse and instantaneous increase of 100 basis points in market interest rates from their levels at both September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. All other variables were held constant. For Notes Payable, the Company assumed an adverse and instantaneous decrease of 100 basis points in market interest rates from their levels at both September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. All other variables were held constant. The Company measured equity price sensitivity assuming an adverse and instantaneous 30% decrease in the Standard and Poor’s Stock Index (the “S&P 500”) from its levels at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, with all other variables held constant. The Company’s investments in common stock equity securities were correlated with the S&P 500 using the portfolio’s weighted-average beta of 0.91 and 0.96 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The portfolio’s weighted-average beta was calculated using each security’s beta for the five-year periods ended September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, and weighted on the fair value of such securities at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. For

Quantitative Information About Market Risk (continued)
equity securities without observable market inputs the Company assumed a beta of 1.00 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Beta measures a stock’s relative volatility in relation to the rest of the stock market, with the S&P 500 having a beta coefficient of 1.00.
The estimated adverse effects on the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments using these assumptions were:

|  |  |  | Pro Forma Increase (Decrease)
(Dollars in Millions) |  | Fair Value |  | Interest Rate Risk |  | Equity Price Risk |  | Total Market Risk
September 30, 2011 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Investments in Fixed Maturities |  | $ | 4,782.4 |  |  | $ | (359.2 | ) |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | (359.2 | )
Investments in Equity Securities |  | 360.8 |  |  | (10.1 | ) |  | (51.9 | ) |  | (62.0 | )
Liabilities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Notes Payable |  | 708.5 |  |  | 28.5 |  |  | — |  |  | 28.5 |
December 31, 2010 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Investments in Fixed Maturities |  | $ | 4,475.3 |  |  | $ | (316.9 | ) |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | (316.9 | )
Investments in Equity Securities |  | 550.4 |  |  | (6.9 | ) |  | (125.4 | ) |  | (132.3 | )
Liabilities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Notes Payable |  | 628.0 |  |  | 31.6 |  |  | — |  |  | 31.6 |

The market risk sensitivity analysis assumes that the composition of the Company’s interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, credit quality, and the equity price sensitive assets existing at the beginning of the period remains constant over the period being measured. It also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is uniform across the yield curve regardless of the time to maturity. Interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Also, any future correlation, either in the near term or the long term, between the Company’s common stock equity securities portfolio and the S&P 500 may differ from the historical correlation as represented by the weighted-average historical beta of the common stock equity securities portfolio. Accordingly, the market risk sensitivity analysis may not be indicative of, is not intended to provide, and does not provide, a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market rates on the Company’s income or shareholders’ equity. Further, the computations do not contemplate any actions the Company may undertake in response to changes in interest rates or equity prices.
To the extent that any adverse 100 basis point change occurs in increments over a period of time instead of instantaneously, the adverse impact on fair values would be partially mitigated because some of the underlying financial instruments would have matured. For example, proceeds from any maturing assets could be reinvested and any new liabilities would be incurred at the then current interest rates.
Qualitative Information About Market Risk
Market risk is a broad term related to economic losses due to adverse changes in the fair value of a financial instrument and is inherent to all financial instruments. SEC disclosure rules focus on only one element of market risk - price risk. Price risk relates to changes in the level of prices due to changes in interest rates, equity prices, foreign exchange rates or other factors that relate to market volatility of the rate, index, or price underlying the financial instrument. The Company’s primary market risk exposures are to changes in interest rates and equity prices.
The Company manages its interest rate exposures with respect to Investments in Fixed Maturities by investing primarily in investment-grade securities of moderate effective duration.
