EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) is being filed pursuant to Rule 414 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to notify the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) that effective as of May 31, 2022, KKR Group Co. Inc. (formerly “KKR & Co. Inc.”), a Delaware corporation (the “Predecessor Registrant”), merged (the “Merger”) with KKR Aubergine Merger Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability corporation (“Merger Sub II”) and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of KKR & Co. Inc. (formerly “KKR Aubergine Inc.”), a Delaware corporation (the “Successor Registrant”), pursuant to which the Predecessor Registrant became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Successor Registrant, in accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 31, 2022 among the Predecessor Registrant, the Successor Registrant and Merger Sub II. For the purposes of this Amendment and the Registration Statement (as defined below), (i) as of any time prior to the effective time of the Merger, references to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms mean the Predecessor Registrant and references to “common stock” mean the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Predecessor Registrant and (ii) as of the effective time of the Merger and thereafter, references to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms mean the Successor Registrant and references to “common stock” mean the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Successor Registrant. This Amendment does not reflect any increase in the number of shares issuable pursuant to the Amended and Restated KKR & Co. Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”).

This Amendment relates to the Registration Statement of the Predecessor Registrant on Form S-8 (File No. 333-230627), filed with the Commission on March 29, 2019, registering 125,090,771 shares of common stock issuable under the 2019 Plan and an indeterminate number of additional shares of common stock of the Company as may be issued with respect to such shares by way of a stock dividend, stock split or similar transaction (as amended, the “Registration Statement”). This Amendment does not increase the total number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to the 2019 Plan.

In connection with the Merger, all of the outstanding capital stock of the Predecessor Registrant (including any options or other rights to acquire the same) was converted automatically, on a share-for-share basis, into equivalent capital stock of the Successor Registrant (and rights to acquire the same). As a result of the Merger, each stockholder of the Predecessor Registrant became a stockholder of the Successor Registrant. In connection with the Merger, the Successor Registrant assumed the Predecessor Registrant’s existing obligations in connection with awards granted under the 2019 Plan.

In accordance with paragraph (d) of Rule 414 under the Securities Act, the Successor Registrant hereby expressly adopts the Registration Statement as its own registration statement except as amended by this Amendment, for all purposes of the Securities Act and under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All registration fees were paid at the time of filing of the original Registration Statement.

Item 4.          Description of Securities.

Not applicable.

Item 5.          Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

The validity of the common stock will be passed upon for us by Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, New York, New York. Certain partners of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, members of their families and related persons have an interest representing less than 1% of the capital commitments of investment funds managed by an affiliate of the Company.

Item 6.          Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The Company is incorporated under the laws of Delaware.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which such person is made a party by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation—a “derivative action”), if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation’s bylaws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or otherwise.

II-1


Under the Company’s certificate of incorporation, in most circumstances, the Company will indemnify the following persons, to the fullest extent permitted by law, from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts: (a) KKR Management LLP (formerly known as KKR Management LLC) (“KML”) and any successor or permitted assign that owns the Series I preferred stock of the Company at the applicable time (the “Series I Preferred Stockholder”); (b) KML in its capacity as the former general partner of KKR & Co. L.P. (the “Former Managing Partner”); (c) any person who is or was an affiliate of the Series I Preferred Stockholder or the Former Managing Partner; (d) any person who is or was a member, partner, Tax Matters Partner (as defined in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and in effect prior to 2018), Partnership Representative (as defined in the Code), officer, director, employee, agent, fiduciary or trustee of us or our subsidiaries, including KKR Group Partnership (as defined in the Company’s certificate of incorporation), the Series I Preferred Stockholder or the Former Managing Partner or any affiliate of the Company or its subsidiaries, the Series I Preferred Stockholder or the Former Managing Partner; (e) any person who is or was serving at the request of the Company or the Former Managing Partner or any affiliate of the Company or the Former Managing Partner as an officer, director, employee, member, partner, Tax Matters Partner, Partnership Representative, agent, fiduciary or trustee of another person (provided that a person shall not be an indemnitee by reason of providing, on a fee-for-services basis or similar arms-length compensatory basis, agency, advisory, consulting, trustee, fiduciary or custodial services); or (f) any person the Company in its sole discretion designates as an indemnitee. Currently, Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL requires that liability be imposed for the following:


any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;

any act or omission not in good faith or which involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL; and

any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

The Company has agreed to provide this indemnification unless there has been a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that these persons acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct. The Company has also agreed to provide this indemnification for criminal proceedings. Any indemnification under these provisions will only be out of the Company’s assets. Unless it otherwise agrees, the Series I Preferred Stockholder will not be liable for, or have any obligation to contribute or loan any monies or property to the Company to enable the Company to effectuate, indemnification. The indemnification of the persons described above shall be secondary to any indemnification such person is entitled from another person or the relevant KKR fund to the extent applicable. The Company may purchase insurance against liabilities asserted against and expenses incurred by persons in connection with its activities, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify the person against liabilities under the Company’s certificate of incorporation.

In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with KML and each of the Company’s directors. Each indemnification agreement provides that the indemnitee, subject to the limitations set forth in each indemnification agreement, will be indemnified and held harmless by the Company on an after-tax basis from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts arising from any and all threatened, pending or completed claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and whether formal or informal and including appeals, in which the indemnitee may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, by reason of its status as an indemnitee or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, whether arising from alleged acts or omissions to act occurring on, before or after the date of such indemnification agreement. Each indemnification agreement provides that the indemnitee shall not be indemnified and held harmless if there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by an arbitral tribunal or court of competent jurisdiction determining that, in respect of the matter for which the indemnitee is seeking indemnification pursuant to the indemnification agreement, the indemnitee acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct.

II-2


The Company currently maintains liability insurance for its directors and officers. Such insurance would be available to the Company’s directors and officers in accordance with its terms.

Item 9.          Undertakings.

(a)    The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)    To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i)    To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii)    To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii)    To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(2)    That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3)    To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b)    The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c)    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to KKR & Co. Inc. (formerly known as KKR Aubergine Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-230627) (the “Registration Statement”) originally filed by KKR Group Co. Inc. (formerly known as KKR & Co. Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the “Predecessor Registrant”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), relating to the issuance by the Predecessor Registrant of an aggregate of up to 125,090,771 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Predecessor Registrant, under the Amended and Restated KKR & Co. Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”).

The Company became the successor to the Predecessor Registrant on May 31, 2022 for purposes of Rule 414 under the Act as a result of the merger (the “Merger”) of the Predecessor Registrant with the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, KKR Aubergine Merger Sub II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Merger Sub”), with the Predecessor Registrant being the surviving corporation. Upon effectiveness of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased and the Predecessor Registrant became a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed and adopted the 2019 Plan and, as a result, shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) are issuable pursuant thereto.

The Registration Statement, as amended by the Post-Effective Amendment, relates to the issuance by the Company of an aggregate of up to 125,090,771 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”), under the 2019 Plan.

We have examined the Registration Statement, as amended by the Post-Effective Amendment, and the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company and the 2019 Plan, each of which have been filed with the Commission and incorporated by reference in the Post-Effective Amendment. In addition, we have examined, and have relied as to matters of fact upon, originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of such records, agreements, documents and other instruments and such certificates or comparable documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company and have made such other investigations as we have deemed relevant and necessary in connection with the opinions hereinafter set forth.

In rendering the opinion set forth below, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as duplicates or certified or conformed copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations stated herein, we are of the opinion that, when the Shares are issued and delivered in accordance with the 2019 Plan, such Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

We do not express any opinion herein concerning any law other than the Delaware General Corporation Law.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 5.1 to the Post-Effective Amendment and to the use of our name under the caption “Interests of Named Experts and Counsel” included in the Registration Statement.

 
Very truly yours,
