(“ KKR ”) and any of its affiliates acting for or on behalf of the Company or the Advisor; (iii) any other person who has access to nonpublic information regarding the Company and is subject to the Company’s or the Advisor’s supervision and control which may include consultants, advisors, temporary employees and such other persons designated by the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department (such persons in clauses (i) through (iii), collectively, “ Permanent Restricted Persons ”); and (iv) such Permanent Restricted Person’s spouse, minor children and any other family member sharing the same household as such Permanent Restricted Person, as well as any other account, trust or entity over which a Covered Party makes or influences investment decisions, and whether the securities are held directly or indirectly (such persons in clause (iv), “ Other Restricted Persons ” and, together with Permanent Restricted Persons, “ Covered Persons ”).


This Policy relates to the common stock the Company traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“ NYSE ”), as well as any other securities of the Company (collectively “ covered securities ”).  Such covered securities include, but are not limited to, common stock; restricted stock; restricted stock units; preferred stock; debt securities, such as bonds, notes and debentures; put or call options; and other derivative instruments (whether or not issued by the Company), which include, but are not limited to, options, warrants, unit interests, partnership interests or other equity interests, that are convertible or exchangeable into covered securities, as well as instruments transferring, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of owning covered securities and instruments providing another, directly or indirectly, with the opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from, or otherwise economically benefit from, any increase or decrease in the value of any covered securities.

The Company’s Code of Ethics (“ CCT Code of Ethics ”), as well as the Advisor’s Code of Ethics (the “ Advisor’s Code of Ethics ”) and KKR’s Confidential Information and Inside Information Barrier Policies and Procedures (the “ Confidentiality Policy ”) also set forth KKR’s prohibitions against transacting in securities while aware of, or tipping, material, nonpublic information and describe KKR’s policies regarding confidentiality.  All Covered Persons must comply with the CCT Code of Ethics, and all Covered Persons, other than those who are unaffiliated with the Advisor or KKR, must comply with the Advisor’s Code of Ethics and KKR’s Confidentiality Policy.


This Policy is meant to supplement the CCT Code of Ethics, the Advisor’s Code of Ethics and the Confidentiality Policy and sets forth additional requirements for Covered Persons:

|II. | TRADING WINDOWS

Trading Window Periods


We have established four “windows” of time for each fiscal year during which you may engage in transactions involving covered securities.  Outside of an open trading window, no Covered Person may engage in any transaction involving covered securities, except as permitted herein, unless a written exception is received from the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department.  As described below, there are circumstances where a trading window may not open or may be closed early.


|  |

|• | A window period typically begins at the opening of trading on the NYSE after at least two complete trading sessions have elapsed since the issuance of the press release announcing the Company’s quarterly earnings for the prior fiscal quarter (or, if there is no press release, the filing of the applicable Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or the Annual Report on Form 10-K).  Assuming that the NYSE is open each day, the following indicates when a Covered Person may trade:

|  |

|• | Trading windows will only officially open when an email or other notification is sent by or on behalf of the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department announcing that it has opened.  The Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department may determine not to open a trading window because material information about the Company has not yet been publicly disclosed.

|  |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
|- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | The official notification that a trading window has been opened will inform you of when the trading window is scheduled to close.  It is the responsibility of the Covered Person transacting in any covered securities to be aware of and to comply with the scheduled closing of the trading window even though it is the policy of the Company to send an email or other notification to confirm the closing of a trading window.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department may determine, at any time, that transactions in covered securities by one or more Covered Persons must be suspended, because (i) there may exist material nonpublic information concerning the Company, (ii) any particular Covered Person may be in possession of material nonpublic information about the Company or (iii) there is a reasonable possibility that such transactions in covered securities may result in adverse reputational, regulatory or legal consequences to the Company or its affiliates.  Such determination may be made on an individual by individual basis.  You will be notified by the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department if those events were to occur, but if, prior to receiving notification by the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department, you believe that you possess material nonpublic information about the Company, then you may not transact in any covered securities even during an open trading window.  If the trading window is closed prior to its scheduled closing date, you must cease all transactions and hold any unsold covered securities that you wanted to sell or transfer until the next open trading window.


Please note that the prohibitions against transacting in covered securities while aware of material, nonpublic information, tipping material nonpublic information and short-term trading apply even during a window period .  Information is “material” if it is likely that a reasonable investor would consider it important in making a decision to buy, sell, or hold a security or where it is likely to have a significant effect on the market price of the security.  Both positive and negative information may be material

Short-term Trading, Hedging and Pledges


Engaging in short-term investment activities or “day-trading” of covered securities is not permitted.  Covered Persons should expect that all purchases by them in the open market must be held in their account for a minimum of sixty (60) calendar days after purchase.


Covered Persons are not permitted to buy or sell puts, calls, options, swaps, or similar common units-based derivative securities, including for hedging purposes, or to engage in “short-selling.” This Policy does not prohibit you from buying or selling exchange traded funds or other non-covered securities that are pre-cleared under the Advisor’s Code of Ethics.


Covered Persons may not pledge, hypothecate or mortgage covered securities.  This means that covered securities shall not be held in trading accounts where the broker provides margin financing.  If a Covered Person must pledge or mortgage covered securities for special circumstances not involving trading, prior approval from the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department is required.


Trading Accounts


Unless approved by KKR’s Compliance Department in writing, Covered Persons may only buy or sell covered securities through a brokerage account at Fidelity.  The Fidelity account must be registered with KKR’s Compliance Department, and copies of brokerage statements and trading confirmations must be automatically and electronically provided to KKR’s Compliance Department.


Immediate family members who live in the same household with the Covered Person or are financially dependent on any Covered Person, as well as any account for which the Covered Person exercises or has the right to exercise investment discretion, may buy or sell covered securities only through a brokerage account that has been registered with KKR’s Compliance Department and for which copies of brokerage statements and trading confirmations are automatically and electronically provided to KKR’s Compliance Department.


As a reminder, the Company is required to periodically collect securities account and transaction reports from all Covered Persons, which includes their immediate family members who live in the same household with them or are financially dependent on them and other persons for whom they exercise or have the right to exercise investment discretion, which reports must contain specific information, including details on any securities held and the name of any broker, dealer or bank with which the Covered Person or related person maintains an account and any transactions that have occurred in these accounts since the last report.  Please contact the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department for more information.

10b5-1 Plans


Covered Persons may establish a pre-existing written plan or arrangement complying with Rule 10b5-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (a “ Rule 10b5-1 plan ”), pursuant to which a broker is given irrevocable instructions to buy or sell covered securities.  A Rule 10b5-1 plan may be established only in an open trading window, and once established, the Covered Person may not provide any further instructions to the broker.  Under a properly established Rule 10b5-1 plan, trading by the broker may continue in a closed trading window.  Rule 10b5-1 plans may only be established at Fidelity.  Directors and Section 16 Officers should also refer to Section III for information on pre-clearance of Rule 10b5-1 plans.


Non-U.S. Persons


If a Covered Person is not permitted by Fidelity to buy covered securities in his or her account at Fidelity, because he or she does not have a U.S. tax identification code, then he or she may buy or sell covered securities in one brokerage account selected by such person; provided that prior to buying or selling covered securities, that brokerage account must be registered with KKR’s Compliance Department, and copies of brokerage statements and trading confirmations must be automatically and, if available, electronically provided to KKR’s Compliance Department.


If a Covered Person wishes to establish a Rule 10b5-1 plan but is not permitted by Fidelity to buy covered securities in his or her Fidelity account, because he or she does not have a U.S. tax identification code, then he or she may establish a Rule 10b5-1 plan with the one brokerage firm selected pursuant to procedures outlined above.

|III. | PRE-CLEARANCE POLICY

Pre-Clearance


Directors and Section 16 Officers shall follow the pre-clearance process described below before they or an Other Restricted Person initiates a transaction in covered securities.  The following people are currently considered to be Section 16 Officers of the Company: the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Investment Officer, the Chief Operating Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, the General Counsel and the Chief Compliance Officer.  The Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department will notify any other person it determines to be a Section 16 Officer.


Each director and Section 16 Officer shall notify the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department before any transaction in covered securities is initiated by (i) such director or Section 16 Officer, (ii) such director’s or Section 16 Officer’s spouse, minor children and any other family member sharing the same household as such director or Section 16 Officer and (iii) any other account, trust or entity over which such director or Section 16 Officer makes or influences investment decisions, and whether the securities are held directly or indirectly.


Each pre-clearance request must include (i) a description of the proposed transaction, (ii) the number of shares (or dollar amount) subject to the transaction, (iii) the proposed date(s) of the transaction, if known, (iv) the identity of the legal buyer or seller and (v) any other information as the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department may request in order to evaluate such request.


As a general matter, the entering into of a Rule 10b5-1 plan is treated similarly under the securities laws to the initiation of a trade, and therefore, a Rule 10b5-1 plan may only be established during an open trading window and without possession of any material nonpublic information and shall be pre-cleared by the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department.


Before the transaction is initiated, the Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department must confirm in writing (including via email) that the transaction is approved.  The approval is valid only for the trading window during which the transaction is proposed to occur and such transaction may only be performed within two (2) business days of any such grant or approval during the window period in which the approval was granted.


The Advisor’s Legal & Compliance Department may revoke any clearance previously granted if it subsequently determines that a director, Section 16 Officer or Other Restricted Person is in possession of material nonpublic information about the Company or such transaction would result in a violation of law.


If the transaction is not approved or approval for such transaction has been revoked, then the proposed transaction may not be initiated or consummated.


This process applies during the period when a person is a director or Section 16 Officer and for the first six (6) months after the person is no longer a director or Section 16 Officer.

|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(a) | Ethical and honest conduct is of paramount importance.  The Company’s Covered Officers must act with honesty and integrity and avoid violations of this SOX Code, including the avoidance of actual or apparent conflicts of interest with the Company in personal and professional relationships.

|    |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(b) | Conflicts of interest may arise as a result of material transactions or business or personal relationships to which the Covered Officer may be a party.  If an employee or agent is unsure whether a particular fact pattern gives rise to a conflict of interest, or whether a particular transaction or relationship is “material,” such employee or agent should bring the matter to the attention of the Compliance Officer.

|    |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(e) | Compliance with laws.  The Company’s Covered Officers must comply with the federal securities laws and other laws and rules applicable to the Company, such as the Internal Revenue Code.

|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(f) | Standard of care.  The Company’s Covered Officers must at all times act in good faith and with due care, competence and diligence, without knowingly misrepresenting material facts or allowing such Covered Officer’s independent judgment to be subordinated.  The Company’s Covered Officers must conduct the affairs of the Company in a responsible manner, consistent with this SOX Code.

|    |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(g) | Confidentiality of information.  The Company’s Covered Officers must respect and protect the confidentiality of information acquired in the course of their professional duties, except when authorized by the Company to disclose it or where disclosure is otherwise legally mandated.  Covered Officers may not use confidential information acquired in the course of their work for personal advantage.




|    |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(i) | Promote ethical conduct.  The Company’s Covered Officers should at all times proactively promote ethical behavior among peers in their work environment.

|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(j) | Standards for recordkeeping.  The Company’s Covered Officers must at all times endeavor to ensure that the Company’s financial books and records are thoroughly and accurately maintained to the best of their knowledge in a manner consistent with applicable laws and this SOX Code.

|-- | --------------------
|5. | Waivers of this Code

An employee or agent may request a waiver of a provision of this SOX Code by submitting a request in writing to the Compliance Officer for appropriate review.  For example, if a family member works for a service provider that prepares the Company’s financial statements, an employee or agent may have a potential conflict of interest in reviewing those statements and should seek a waiver of this SOX Code to review the work.  The Compliance Officer, an executive officer of the Company, or another appropriate








---







person (suc h as a designated Board or Audit Committee member), will decide whether to grant a waiver.  All waivers of this SOX Code must be disclosed to the shareholders of the Company to the extent required by SEC rules.  A Covered Officer who is also an employee of the Advisor need not seek a waiver solely with respect to such employment.


|   |                        
|-- | -----------------------
|6. | Affirmation of the Code

Upon adoption of the SOX Code, the Company’s Covered Officers must affirm in writing that, among other things, they have received, read and understand the SOX Code, and quarterly thereafter must reaffirm as to such matters and affirm that they have complied with the requirements of the SOX Code.  To the extent necessary, the Company’s Compliance Officer will provide guidance on the conduct required by this SOX Code and the manner in which violations or suspected violations must be reported and waivers must be requested.


|   |                     
|-- | --------------------
|7. | Reporting Violations

In the event that a Covered Officer discovers or, in good faith, suspects a violation of this SOX Code, the Covered Officer must immediately report the violation or suspected violation to the Compliance Officer.  The Compliance Officer may, in his or her discretion, consult with the General Counsel, outside counsel, the Company’s senior management or the Board in determining how to address the suspected violation.  For example, a SOX Code violation may occur when a periodic report or financial statement of the Fund omits a material fact, or is technically accurate but, in the view of the Covered Officer, is written in a way that obscures its meaning.


Covered Officers who report violations or suspected violations in good faith will not be subject to retaliation of any kind.  Reported violations will be investigated and addressed promptly and will be treated as confidential to the extent possible.


|   |                       
|-- | ----------------------
|8. | Violations of the Code

Dishonest or unethical conduct or conduct that is illegal will constitute a violation of this SOX Code, regardless of whether this SOX Code specifically refers to such particular conduct.  A violation of this SOX Code may result in disciplinary action, up to and including removal as a Covered Officer of the Fund.  A variety of laws apply to the Company and its operations, including the Securities Act, the 1940 Act, state laws relating to duties owed by the Company’s officers, and criminal laws.  The Company will determine when and how to report a suspected criminal violation to the appropriate authorities, and will investigate, address and report, as appropriate, non-criminal violations.
