Item 2.03

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On March 20, 2020, KKR Capital Markets Holdings L.P. and certain other capital market subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) of KKR & Co. Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “KKR”) entered into a third amended and restated 5-year revolving credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with Mizuho Bank, Ltd., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. The Agreement provides for revolving borrowings of up to $500 million with a $500 million sublimit for letters of credit, expires on March 20, 2025 and ranks pari passu with the existing $750 million 364-day revolving credit facility provided by them for KKR’s capital markets business. The prior second amended and restated 5-year revolving credit agreement, dated as of March 30, 2016, between the Borrowers, Mizuho Bank, Ltd., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, was terminated according to its terms on March 20, 2020 and replaced by the Agreement.

If a borrowing is made on the Agreement, the interest rate will vary depending on the type of drawdown requested. If the loan is a Eurocurrency loan, it will be based on LIBOR plus the applicable margin which ranges initially between 1.75% and 3.00%, depending on the amount and nature of the loan. If the loan is an ABR Loan, it will be based on the prime rate plus the applicable margin which ranges initially between 0.75% and 2.00% depending on the amount and nature of the loan. Borrowings under this facility may only be used for KKR’s capital markets business, and its only obligors are entities involved in KKR’s capital markets business, and its liabilities are non-recourse to other parts of KKR’s business.

As of March 20, 2020, €75 million was outstanding under the Agreement, and various letters of credit were outstanding in the amount of $55.1 million, which reduce the overall borrowing capacity of the Agreement.

The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and affirmative and negative covenants, including a financial covenant providing for a maximum debt to equity ratio for the Borrowers. The Borrowers’ obligations under the Agreement are secured by certain assets of the Borrowers, including a pledge of equity interests of certain subsidiaries of the Borrowers.
