On December 23, 2024 (the “Effective Date”), certain indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) of KKR Private Equity Conglomerate LLC (the “Company”) entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, as joint lead arranger and administrative agent, KKR Capital Markets LLC, an indirect subsidiary of KKR & Co. Inc. and affiliate of the Company, as joint lead arranger, and the lenders party thereto.
Under the Agreement, the lenders have agreed to make credit available to the Borrowers in an aggregate initial principal amount of up to $200 million as of the Effective Date, with an uncommitted accordion feature that would allow the Borrowers to increase the commitment to up to $1.5 billion in the aggregate. The Agreement will mature on December 23, 2027, unless there is an earlier termination or an acceleration following an event of default.
Advances under the Agreement denominated in U.S. dollars will bear interest, at the relevant Borrower’s option, at (i) the daily or term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus a spread of 3.50% or (ii) certain alternative rates made available to the Borrower under the terms of the Agreement. Advances under the Agreement denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars will bear interest at certain local rates consistent with market standards plus a spread of 3.50%. The Borrowers are also obligated to pay other customary closing fees, arrangement fees, administration fees, unused fees, commitment fees and letter of credit fees for a credit facility of this size and type. Obligations under the Agreement are non-recourse to the Company and other parts of KKR.
The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, mandatory prepayment triggers and affirmative and negative covenants, including requirements related to maintaining certain loan-to-value percentages, as described in Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The Borrowers’ obligations under the Agreement are secured by a pledge of certain accounts of the Borrowers.
The foregoing summary description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
