13 Earnings Call Presentation – 1Q 2017 Non-GAAP Financial Measures Diluted Consolidated Net Operating Income (Loss) Per Unrestricted Share is an after-tax, non-GAAP financial measure computed by excluding from Diluted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share the after-tax per unrestricted share impact of net realized gains on sales of investments and net impairment losses recognized in earnings related to investments. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is Diluted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share. Kemper believes that Diluted Consolidated Net Operating Income (Loss) Per Unrestricted Share 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 Kemper’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.

14 Earnings Call Presentation – 1Q 2017 Non-GAAP Financial Measures Underlying Operating Performance is a non-GAAP financial measure that is computed by excluding from the Diluted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share the after-tax per unrestricted share impact of 1) net realized gains on sales of investments, 2) net impairment losses recognized in earnings related to investments, 3) current year catastrophe losses and LAE, 4) net investment income from alternative investments, 5) prior-year reserve development (both catastrophe and non-catastrophe), and 6) the initial impact of voluntary outreach efforts regarding life claims recorded in the third quarter of 2016. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is Diluted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share. Kemper believes Underlying Operating Performance provides investors with a valuable measure of its ongoing performance because it reveals underlying operational trends that otherwise might be less apparent if the items were not excluded. Underlying Operating Performance should not be considered a substitute for the Diluted Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations Per Unrestricted Share and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business. Book Value Per Share Excluding Net Unrealized Gains on Fixed Maturities, is a ratio that uses a non-GAAP financial measure. It is calculated by dividing shareholders’ equity after excluding the after-tax impact of net unrealized gains on fixed income securities by total Common Shares Issued and Outstanding. Book value per share is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. The Company uses the trend in book value per share, excluding the after-tax impact of net unrealized gains on fixed income securities in conjunction with book value per share to identify and analyze the change in net worth attributable to management efforts between periods. The Company believes the non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it eliminates the effect of items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period and are generally driven by economic developments, primarily capital market conditions, the magnitude and timing of which are generally not influenced by management. The Company believes it enhances understanding and comparability of performance by highlighting underlying business activity and profitability drivers. 1Q17 4Q16 3Q16 2Q16 1Q16 Book Val e Per Share 38.67$ 38.52$ 40.51$ 41.17$ 39.92$ Less: Net Unrealized Gains on Fixed Maturities Per Share (3.86) (3.52) (6.24) (6.39) (4.95) Book Value Per Share Excluding Net Unrealized Gains on Fixed Maturities 34.81$ 35.00$ 34.27$ 34.78$ 34.97$ For the Period Ended

The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is the combined ratio, which is computed by adding the total incurred loss and LAE ratio, including the impact of catastrophe losses and loss and LAE reserve development from prior years, with the insurance expense ratio. Kemper believes the underlying combined ratio is useful to investors and is used by management to reveal the trends in Kemper ’s property and casualty insurance businesses that may be obscured by catastrophe losses and prior-year reserve development. These catastrophe losses may cause 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 development is 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. Kemper believes it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing its underwriting performance. The underlying combined ratio should not be considered a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall underwriting profitability of our business.
