WHEREAS, the Existing Guarantors, the Company and the Trustee are parties to an indenture dated as of February 1, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture dated as of February 1, 2013 among the Company, the Existing Guarantors and the Trustee (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance by the Company of $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.500% Senior Notes due 2043 (the “Notes”);

 

WHEREAS, Section 1402 of the Indenture provides that the Company and each Existing Guarantor shall cause each New KKR Entity (other than a Non-Guarantor Entity) to become a Guarantor pursuant to the Indenture and provide a Guarantee in respect of the Notes (the “New Guarantee”);

 

WHEREAS, the New Guarantor is a New KKR Entity and is not a Non-Guarantor Entity under the terms and conditions set forth under the Indenture;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 901 of the Indenture, the Company, the Existing Guarantors and the Trustee, may, without the consent of any Holders, enter into this Second Supplemental Indenture for the purpose of adding the New Guarantor as a Guarantor under the Indenture;

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Sections 901 and 1413 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Second Supplemental Indenture;

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:

 

(1)                                 Capitalized Terms.  Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 

 

(2)                                 Definition of KKR Group Partnerships. The term “KKR Group Partnerships” under Section 2.1 of the First Supplemental Indenture is hereby amended and replaced in its entirety to read as follows:

(6)                                 Not Responsible for Recitals.  The recitals contained herein shall be taken as the statements of the Company and the Guarantors, as the case may be, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Second Supplemental Indenture or the Guarantees.  All rights, protections, privileges and indemnities granted or afforded to the Trustee under the Indenture shall be deemed incorporated herein by this reference and shall be deemed applicable to all actions taken, suffered or omitted by the Trustee under this Second Supplemental Indenture.
