Keystone Private Income Fund

Shareholder Letter

Dear Shareholders,

We are pleased to provide you with our annual report of Keystone Private Income Fund (the “Fund”) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021. We are pleased with the early success of the Fund and are working diligently to expand our investment capabilities and improve the overall investor experience in the Fund going forward.

Like most of the investment world, we keep a close eye on many of the most concerning risks that investors face today. We believe these include:

● Inflation. Very real inflation, thereby penalizing investors holding cash;

● Low Yield Environment. Dim prospects for bonds with low current yields and the potential for rising interest rates;

● Stock Market. Uncertain stock market outlook with the prospect of returning to more near average markets after an exceptionally strong bull run;

● Real Estate. High real estate prices leaving few opportunities to buy stabilized assets at attractive prices; and

● Competition. Ballooning war chests of unspent private equity dollars.

In response to these and other risks, we believe that several themes emerge as contributing factors in our management of the Fund’s investment portfolio, which despite uncertainty about economic stability, interest rates, inflation in the broader economy at large, have contributed to steady, consistent returns for our investors over the last year:

● Unlevered. Although unusual in the private credit world, we believe that our decision to manage the Fund as unlevered is a unique attribute that reduces the overall risk of an investment in the Fund.

● Structuring. Many of our investments amortize, which reduces our exposure over time.

● Seniority. A significant percentage of our Fund investments are first lien, senior secured, which we believe is another unique attribute that is unusual in private credit.

● Collateral. When sourcing new private credit investment opportunities, our bias is toward investments secured by asset-backed collateral, as opposed to positions secured by revenue, intellectual property or other intangible assets.

While all investors must always assume some measure of risk when deploying capital, we believe that a methodical, disciplined approach can go a long way toward mitigating that risk. It may not be possible to mitigate all risks, especially in private transactions where there always exists the potential for fraud, collusion, changes in asset prices or simply poor performance. However, the Fund’s targeted verticals of Capital Equipment Leasing, Receivables Finance, Specialty Real Estate Finance and Corporate Finance have served our investors well and we believe continue to be attractive today. Shareholders should consult the Private Placement Memorandum for a complete listing of risks associated with the Fund.

We expect to stay the course in the management of the Fund over the coming months. We appreciate your continued support and interest.

UMB Distribution Services, LLC acts as the Fund’s placement agent.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
September 30, 2021

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of

Keystone Private Income Fund

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Keystone Private Income Fund (the “Fund”) as of September 30, 2021, the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the related notes, and the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for each of the two periods in the period then ended (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of September 30, 2021, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, and the changes in net assets and the financial highlights for each of the two periods in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian or underlying borrowers. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statements, the financial statements include investments valued at $360,166,897 (110.9% of net assets) as of September 30, 2021, whose fair values have been estimated by management in accordance with policies approved by and under the general oversight of the Board of Trustees in the absence of readily determinable fair values.

We have served as the Fund’s auditor since 2019.

Fund Performance
September 30, 2021 (Unaudited)

Performance of a $50,000 Investment

This graph compares a hypothetical $50,000 investment in the Fund’s Y shares, made at its inception, with a similar investment in the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index. Results include the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains.

The Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index is a market-weighted index designed to track the performance of the investable universe of the U.S. dollar-denominated institutional leveraged loan market. The index does not reflect expenses, fees or sales charge, which would lower performance. The index is unmanaged and it is not possible to invest in an index.

Average Annual Total Returns as September 30, 2021	1 Year	Since Inception
Keystone Private Income Fund – Class A (Inception Date 8/1/2020)	8.24%	8.28%
Keystone Private Income Fund – Class D (Inception Date 9/30/2020)	8.57%	8.57%
Keystone Private Income Fund – Class Y (Inception Date 7/1/2020)	9.21%	8.99%

Keystone Private Income Fund – Class Z (Inception Date 8/1/2020)	9.49%	9.45%
Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index (Inception Date 7/1/2020)	8.46%	10.20%

The performance data quoted here represents past performance and past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance information quoted. The most recent quarter end performance may be obtained by calling 1.888.442.4420.

The Keystone National Group, LLC (the “Investment Manager”) has entered into an expense limitation and reimbursement agreement (the “Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement”) with the Fund, whereby the Investment Manager has agreed to waive fees that it would otherwise have been paid, and/or to assume expenses of the Fund (a “Waiver”), if required to ensure the Total Annual Expenses (including the Investment Management Fee, but excluding any taxes, interest expense, sales charges and other brokerage commissions, other transaction related expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, Incentive Fees, expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, Distribution and Servicing Fees and extraordinary expenses) does not exceed 3.00% of the average daily net assets of any Class of Shares (the “Expense Limit”). Because taxes, interest expense, sales charges and other brokerage commissions, other transaction related expenses, Incentive Fees, Distribution and Servicing Fees, expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization

and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the Expense Limit, Total Annual Expenses (after fee waivers and expense reimbursements) may exceed 3.00% of the average daily net assets of each Class of Shares. The performance quoted above reflects the Waiver in effect and would have been lower in its absence.

Returns reflect the reinvestment of distributions made by the Fund, if any. The graph and the performance table above do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

For the Fund’s current expense ratio, please refer to the Financial Highlights Section of this report.

The Investment Manager is an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund intends to continue to qualify and has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Fund commenced operations on July 1, 2020.

The Fund offers five separate classes (each a “Class”) of shares of beneficial interest (“Shares”) designated as Class A, Class D, Class Y Class I, and Class Z Shares. “Shareholders” own Shares of the Fund. Each class of Shares is subject to different fees and expenses. The Fund may offer additional classes of Shares in the future.

The Fund’s primary investment objective is to produce current income. The Investment Manager manages the Fund’s portfolio with a view toward producing current income, managing liquidity and protecting against downside scenarios. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will seek to achieve its investment objective by opportunistically investing, directly or indirectly, a majority of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in a wide range of private credit-oriented or other cash flow producing investments. For purposes of the Fund’s strategy, such investments may include corporate loans and credit facilities, equipment leasing transactions, real estate backed loans, corporate and consumer receivables, and other specialty finance opportunities or income-producing assets. The Fund may allocate its assets through a wide range of investment vehicles and structures, including among others as senior debt and also as subordinated debt, preferred equity and common equity investments. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation and Use of Estimates

The Fund is an investment company and follows the accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income

The Fund’s investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments are determined using the specific identification method for financial reporting. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and prepayment fees are recognized as interest income when received. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Some or all of the interest payments of a loan or preferred equity may be structured in the form of payment in kind (“PIK”), which accrues on a current basis but is generally not paid in cash until maturity or some other determined payment date. PIK interest is included in the Fund’s net asset value and also in determining net investment income for purposes of calculating the Incentive Fee. PIK interest may be combined with cash current paid interest or otherwise tailored to address both the specific circumstances of the borrower and the return requirements of the investor. Interest payments structured in the form of PIK are subject to the risk that a borrower could default when actual cash interest or principal payments are due.

Loan origination income is charged to the borrowers during loan originations. This income is received at the time of closing and then deferred to be recognized as non-interest income over the term of the loan. For the year ended September 30, 2021, the fund accrued loan origination income of $552,927, and has $1,248,684 of unearned loan origination income.

Organizational and Offering Costs

Organizational costs consist of the costs of forming the Fund, drafting of bylaws, administration, custody and transfer agency agreements, and legal services in connection with the initial meeting of the Fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Offering costs consist of the costs of preparing, reviewing and filing with the SEC the Fund’s registration statement, the costs of preparing, reviewing and filing of any associated marketing or similar materials, the costs associated with the printing, mailing

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

or other distribution of the Private Placement Memorandum, Statement of Additional Information and/or marketing materials, and the amounts of associated filing fees and legal fees associated with the offering. The Investment Manager has paid all organizational and offering costs for the Fund.

Cash Escrow

Subscriptions are generally subject to the receipt of cleared funds on or prior to the acceptance date set by the Fund and notified to prospective investors. Pending any closing, funds received from prospective investors will be placed in an interest-bearing escrow account with UMB Bank, n.a., the Fund’s escrow agent and are restricted for use otherwise. On the date of any closing, the balance in the escrow account with respect to each investor whose investment is accepted will be invested in the Fund on behalf of such investor. Any interest earned on escrowed amounts will be credited to the Fund for the benefit of all Shareholders.

Federal Income Taxes

The Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Code, as amended. As so qualified, the Fund will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and capital gains to Shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Management of the Fund is required to determine whether a tax position taken by the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, based on the technical merits of the position. Based on its analysis, there were no tax positions identified by management of the Fund that did not meet the “more likely than not” standard as of September 30, 2021.

Distributions to Shareholders

The Fund accrues distributions monthly and pay distributions quarterly to its Shareholders of the net investment income of the Fund after payment of Fund operating expenses. The dividend rate may be modified by the Board from time to time. To the extent that any portion of the Fund’s quarterly distributions are considered a return of capital to Shareholders, such portion would not be considered dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes and would represent a return of the amounts that such Shareholders invested. Although such return of capital distributions are not currently taxable to Shareholders, such distributions will have the effect of lowering a Shareholder’s tax basis in such Shares, and could result in a higher tax liability when the Shares are sold, even if they have not increased in value, or in fact, have lost value. The Fund’s final distribution for each tax year is expected to include any remaining investment company taxable income and net tax-exempt income undistributed during the tax year, as well as any undistributed net capital gain realized during the tax year. If the total distributions made in any tax year exceed investment company taxable income, net tax-exempt income and net capital gain, such excess distributed amount would be treated as ordinary dividend income to the extent of the Fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits. This distribution policy, may, under certain circumstances, have adverse consequences to the Fund and its Shareholders because it may result in a return of capital resulting in less of a Shareholder’s assets being invested in the Fund and, over time, increase the Fund’s expense ratio. The distribution policy also may cause the Fund to sell securities at a time it would not otherwise do so to manage the distribution of income and gain.

Valuation of Investments

The Board has approved valuation procedures for the Fund (the “Valuation Procedures”) and appointed a separate valuation committee (the “Valuation Committee”). The Board has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for determining the fair valuation of the Fund’s investments to the Investment Manager, subject to the oversight of the Valuation Committee. The Investment Manager oversees the valuation of the Fund’s investments on behalf of the Fund in accordance with the Valuation Procedures, which provide that investments will be valued at fair value. Furthermore, the valuation of the Fund’s assets will be done in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

In general, fair value represents a good faith approximation of the current value of an asset and is used when there is no public market or possibly no market at all for the asset. As a result, the fair values of one or more assets may not be the prices at which those assets are ultimately sold. Prospective investors should be aware that situations involving uncertainties as to the value of investments could have an adverse effect on the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) if the judgments of the Valuation Committee or Investment Manager regarding appropriate valuations should prove incorrect.

22

September 30, 2021 (continued)

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The Fund holds a high proportion of illiquid investments relative to its total investments, which is directly related to the Fund’s investment objectives and strategy. The valuation approach will likely vary by investment, but may include comparable public market valuations, comparable transaction valuations and discounted cash flow analyses. All factors that might materially impact the value of an investment (i.e., underlying collateral, operating results, financial condition, achievement of milestones, and economic and/or market events) may be considered. In certain circumstances the Investment Manager may determine that cost best approximates the fair value of the particular investment.

Repurchase Offers

The Fund provides some liquidity to Shareholders by making quarterly offers to repurchase a certain percentage of its outstanding Shares at NAV. The decision to offer to repurchase Shares is in the complete and absolute discretion of the Board and the Board may, under certain circumstances, elect not to offer to repurchase Shares. The Fund believes that these repurchase offers are generally beneficial to the Fund’s Shareholders and generally are funded from available cash. However, the repurchase of Shares by the Fund decreases the assets of the Fund and, therefore, may have the effect of increasing the Fund’s expense ratio. Repurchase offers and the need to fund repurchase obligations may also affect the ability of the Fund to be fully invested or force the Fund to maintain a higher percentage of its assets in liquid investments, which may harm the Fund’s investment performance.

Borrowing, Use of Leverage

The Fund may employ leverage through a secured Revolving Loan Agreement to achieve its investment objective. The Fund’s willingness to use leverage, and the extent to which leverage is used at any time, will depend on many factors, including the Investment Manager’s assessment of the yield curve environment, interest rate trends, market conditions and other factors. Borrowings by the Fund will further diminish returns (or increase losses on capital) to the extent overall returns are less than the Fund’s cost of funds. Such debt exposes the Fund to refinancing, recourse and other risks. As a general matter, the presence of leverage can accelerate losses. Subject to prevailing market conditions, the Fund may add financial leverage if, immediately after such borrowing, it would have asset coverage (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of 300% or more (in the event leverage is obtained solely through debt) or 200% or more (in the event leverage is obtained solely though preferred stock). The Fund may use leverage opportunistically and may choose to increase or decrease its leverage, or use different types or combinations of leveraging instruments, at any time based on the Fund’s assessment of market conditions and the investment environment. The Investment Manager expects that the Fund’s borrowings may ultimately be secured with a security interest in investments. In times of adverse market conditions, the Fund may be required to post additional collateral which could affect the Fund’s liquidity.

The current Revolving Loan Agreement has maximum credit available of $35,000,000 with a maturity date of April 9, 2024. For the year ended September 30, 2021, the average balance outstanding and weighted average interest rate were $15,562,934 and 4.00%, respectively. The Fund had a previous Revolving Loan Agreement that had maximum credit available of $5,000,000 with a maturity date of December 31, 2021. For the year ended September 30, 2021, the average balance outstanding and weighted average interest rate were $5,000,000 and 8.00%, respectively. For the year ended September 30, 2021, the fund accrued and paid interest expense of $248,595, and $157,227, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, the Fund has an outstanding line of credit balance of $29,432,666. The maximum the Fund borrowed was $32,782,666 on September 24, 2021 through September 29, 2021.

Participations

The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in participation interests or special purpose vehicles holding various credit investments. The special risks associated with these obligations include adverse consequences resulting from participating in such instruments with other institutions with lower credit quality and limitations on the ability of the Fund to directly enforce its rights with respect to participations. The Fund may acquire interests in such credit investments either directly (by way of sale or assignment) or indirectly (by way of participation). The purchaser of an assignment typically succeeds to all the rights and obligations of the assigning institution and becomes a contracting party under the credit arrangement with respect to the obligation; however, its rights can be more restricted than those of the assigning institution. Participation interests in a portion of a credit arrangement typically results in a contractual relationship only with the institution participating out the interest and not directly with the counterparty. In purchasing participations, the Fund may have no right to enforce compliance by the counterparty with the terms of the credit agreement, and the Fund may not directly benefit from the collateral supporting the credit obligation in which it has purchased the participation. As a result, if the Fund were to hold a participation, it would assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the institution selling the participation to the Fund.

3. Principal Risks

Non-Diversified Status

The Fund is a “non-diversified” management investment company. Thus, there are no percentage limitations imposed by the Investment Company Act on the Fund’s assets that may be invested, directly or indirectly, in the securities of any one issuer. Consequently, if one or more securities are allocated a relatively large percentage of the Fund’s assets, losses suffered by such securities could result in a higher reduction in the Fund’s capital than if such capital had been more proportionately allocated among a larger number of securities. The Fund may also be more susceptible to any single economic or regulatory occurrence than a diversified investment company.

Limited Liquidity

Shares in the Fund provide limited liquidity since Shareholders will not be able to redeem Shares on a daily basis. A Shareholder may not be able to tender its Shares in the Fund promptly after it has made a decision to do so. In addition, with very limited exceptions, Shares are not transferable, and liquidity will be provided only through repurchase offers made quarterly by the Fund. Shares in the Fund are therefore suitable only for investors who can bear the risks associated with the limited liquidity of Shares and should be viewed as a long-term investment.

Investment Manager Incentive Fee Risk

Any Incentive Fee payable by the Fund that relates to its net investment income may be computed and paid on income that may include interest or gains that have been accrued or are unrealized, but not yet received or realized. The Investment Manager is not under any obligation to reimburse the Fund for any part of the Incentive Fee it received that was based on accrued income or unrealized gains that the Fund never received or realized, and such circumstances would result in the Fund’s paying an Incentive Fee on income it never received or gains it never realized. The Incentive Fee payable by the Fund to the Investment Manager may create an incentive for it to make investments on the Fund’s behalf that are risky or more speculative than would be the case in the absence of such compensation arrangement. The way in which the Incentive Fee payable to the Investment Manager is determined may encourage it to use leverage to increase the return on the Fund’s investments. Under certain circumstances, the use of leverage may increase the likelihood of default, which would disfavor Shareholders. Such a practice could result in the Fund’s investing in more speculative securities than would otherwise be in its best interests, which could result in higher investment losses, particularly during cyclical economic downturns.

Private Credit

Private credit is a common term for unregistered debt investments made through privately negotiated transactions. Private credit investments may be structured using a range of financial instruments, including without limitation first and second lien senior secured loans, subordinated or unsecured debt and preferred equity arrangements. From time to time these investments might include equity features such as warrants, options, or common stock depending on the strategy of the investor and the financing requirements of the company or asset.

Loans to private companies, businesses and operators can range in credit quality depending on security-specific factors, including total leverage, amount of leverage senior to the collateral that secures the investment, variability in the issuer’s cash flows, the size of the issuer, the quality of collateral securing debt and the degree to which such collateral covers the accompanying debt obligations. The businesses in which the Fund invests may be levered, and the investments made by the Fund will generally not be rated by national credit rating agencies. The loans in which the Fund will invest may be rated below investment grade if they were rated. Below investment grade securities, which are often referred to as “junk,” have predominantly speculative characteristics and may carry a greater risk with respect to a borrower’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal.

Pandemic Risk

Continuing spread of an infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel strain of coronavirus (known as COVID-19) has caused volatility, severe market dislocations and liquidity constraints in many markets, including securities the Fund holds, and may adversely affect the Fund’s investments and operations. The outbreak was first detected in December 2019 and subsequently spread globally. The transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread have resulted in international and domestic travel restrictions and disruptions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines, event and service cancellations or interruptions, disruptions to business operations (including staff reductions), supply chains and consumer activity, as well as general concern and uncertainty that has negatively affected the economic environment. These disruptions have led to instability in the market-place, including stock and credit market losses and overall volatility. The impact of COVID-19, and other infectious

24

Keystone Private Income Fund

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2021 (continued)

3. Principal Risks (continued)

illness outbreaks, epidemics or pandemics that may arise in the future, could adversely affect the economies of many nations or the entire global economy, the financial performance of individual issuers, borrowers and sectors and the health of the markets generally in potentially significant and unforeseen ways. In addition, the impact of infectious illnesses, such as COVID-19, in emerging market countries may be greater due to generally less established healthcare systems. This crisis or other public health crises may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries or globally.

The Fund and Investment Manager have in place business continuity plans reasonably designed to ensure that they maintain normal business operations, and that the Fund, its portfolio and assets are protected. However, in the event of a pandemic or an outbreak, such as COVID-19, there can be no assurance that the Fund, its adviser and service providers, or the Fund’s portfolio companies, will be able to maintain normal business operations for an extended period of time or will not lose the services of key personnel on a temporary or long-term basis due to illness or other reasons. A pandemic or disease could also impair the information technology and other operational systems upon which the Fund’s adviser rely and could otherwise disrupt the ability of the Fund’s service providers to perform essential tasks.

The foregoing could lead to a significant economic downturn or recession, increased market volatility, a greater number of market closures, higher default rates and adverse effects on the values and liquidity of securities or other assets. Such impacts, which may vary across asset classes, may adversely affect the performance of the Fund’s investments, the Fund and your investment in the Fund. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on either specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in the Fund being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or to accurately price its investments.

Governmental authorities and regulators throughout the world, such as the U.S. Federal Reserve, have in the past responded to major economic disruptions with changes to fiscal and monetary policy, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions, new monetary programs and dramatically lower interest rates. Certain of those policy changes have been implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Such policy changes may adversely affect the value, volatility and liquidity of dividend and interest paying securities. The effect of these efforts undertaken by the U.S. Federal Reserve to address the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, such as the reduction of the federal funds target rate, and other monetary and fiscal actions that may be taken by the U.S. federal government to stimulate the U.S. economy, are not yet fully known. Although vaccines for COVID- 19 are becoming more widely available, it is unknown how long circumstances related to the pandemic will persist, whether they will reoccur in the future, whether efforts to support the economy and financial markets will be successful, and what additional implications may follow from the pandemic. The impact of these events and other epidemics or pandemics in the future could adversely affect Fund performance.

4. Investment Advisory and Other Agreements

The Fund has entered into an investment management agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”) with the Investment Manager. Pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement, the Investment Manager is entitled to a fee consisting of two components – a base management fee (the “Investment Management Fee”) and an incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”). The Investment Management Fee is calculated and payable monthly in arrears at the annual rate of 1.50% of the month-end value of the Fund’s net assets before management fees for the current month. The Investment Management Fee is paid out of the Fund’s assets. Such fees are paid to the Investment Manager before giving effect to any repurchase of Shares effective as of that date and decrease the net profits or increase the net losses of the Fund that are credited to its Shareholders.

Effective January 1, 2021, the Incentive Fee is calculated and payable monthly in arrears based upon the Fund’s net profits for the immediately preceding month, and is subject to a hurdle rate, expressed as a rate of return on the Fund’s net assets equal to 0.58333333% per month (or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.00%), subject to a “catch-up” feature. Prior to January 1, 2021, the Incentive Fee was calculated quarterly. The Incentive Fee is equal to 15.0% of the excess, if any, of (i) the net profits of the Fund for the relevant period over (ii) the then balance, if any, of the Loss Recovery Account. For the purposes of the Incentive Fee, the term “net profits” means the amount by which the NAV of the Fund on the last day of the relevant period exceeds the NAV of the Fund as of the commencement of the same period, including any net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments and realized income and gains or losses and expenses (which, for this purpose shall not include any distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees, litigation, any extraordinary expenses or Incentive Fee). The Fund will maintain a memorandum account (the “Loss Recovery Account”), which will have an initial balance of zero and will be (i) increased upon the close of each calendar month end of the Fund by the amount of the net losses of the Fund for the month, and (ii) decreased (but not below zero) upon the close of each calendar month end by the amount of the net

4. Investment Advisory and Other Agreements (continued)

profits of the Fund for the month. Shareholders will benefit from the Loss Recovery Account in proportion to their holdings of Shares. The “catch-up” provision is intended to provide the Investment Manager with an incentive fee of 15.0% on all of the Fund’s net profits when the Fund’s net profits reach 0.68627451% of net assets in any calendar month 8.24% annualized). For the year ended September 30, 2021, the Fund incurred $3,052,000 in incentive fees.

The Investment Manager has entered into an expense limitation and reimbursement agreement (the “Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement”) with the Fund, whereby the Investment Manager has agreed to waive fees that it would otherwise have been paid, and/or to assume expenses of the Fund (a “Waiver”), if required to ensure the Total Annual Expenses (including the Investment Management Fee, but excluding any taxes, interest expense, sales charges and other brokerage commissions, other transaction related expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, Incentive Fees, expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, Distribution and Servicing Fees and extraordinary expenses) does not exceed 3.00% of the average daily net assets of any Class of Shares (the “Expense Limit”). Because taxes, interest expense, sales charges and other brokerage commissions, other transaction related expenses, Incentive Fees, Distribution and Servicing Fees, expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the Expense Limit, Total Annual Expenses (after fee waivers and expense reimbursements) may exceed 3.00% of the average daily net assets of each Class of Shares.

For a period not to exceed three years from the date on which a Waiver is made, the Investment Manager may recoup amounts waived or assumed, provided they are able to effect such recoupment without causing the Fund’s expense ratio (after recoupment) to exceed the lesser of (i) the expense limit in effect at the time of the waiver and (ii) the expense limit in effect at the time of the recoupment. The Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement had an initial one-year term, which ended on February 2, 2021, and will automatically renew for consecutive one-year terms thereafter. Either the Fund or the Investment Manager may terminate the Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement upon 30 days’ written notice. At September 30, 2021, there are potentially recoverable expenses.

UMB Distribution Services, LLC serves as the Fund’s placement agent; UMB Fund Services, Inc. (“UMBFS”) serves as the Fund’s fund accountant, transfer agent and administrator. For the year ended September 30, 2021, the Fund’s allocated UMBFS fees are reported on the Statement of Operations.

A trustee and certain officers of the Fund are employees of UMBFS or the Investment Manager. The Fund does not compensate trustees and officers affiliated with the Fund’s administrator or Investment Manager. For the year ended September 30, 2021, the Fund’s allocated fees incurred for trustees who are not affiliated with the Fund’s administrator or Investment Manager are reported on the Statement of Operations.

Vigilant Compliance, LLC provides Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) services to the Fund. The Fund’s allocated fees incurred for CCO services for the year ended September 30, 2021 are reported on the Statement of Operations.

The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan with respect to Class A Shares, Class D Shares, Class Y Shares and Class I Shares in compliance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act. Under the Distribution and Service Plan, the Fund may pay as compensation up to 1.00% on an annualized basis of the aggregate net assets of the Fund attributable to Class A Shares, up to 0.90% on an annualized basis of the aggregate net assets of the Fund attributable to Class D Shares, up to 0.25% on an annualized basis of the aggregate net assets of the Fund attributable to Class Y Shares, and up to 0.15% on an annualized basis of the aggregate net assets of the Fund attributable to Class I Shares (the “Distribution and Servicing Fee”) to the Fund’s Placement Agent or other qualified recipients under the Distribution and Service Plan. For purposes of determining the Distribution and Servicing Fee, NAV will be calculated prior to any reduction for any fees and expenses, including, without limitation, the Distribution and Servicing Fee payable. Therefore, it is possible the Distribution and Servicing Fee rate on the Financial Highlights may show a rate above the contractual limit. Class Z Shares are not subject to the Distribution and Service Plan.

For the period, the fund engaged in the following affiliated transactions:

5. Fair Value of Investments

Fair value – Definition

The Fund uses a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

● Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

● Level 2 – Valuations based on inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are both significant and unobservable to the overall fair value measurement.

The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and are affected by a wide variety of factors, including type of investment, whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, determining fair value requires more judgment. Because of the inherent uncertainly of valuation, estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Investment Manager in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3.

The Fund’s assets recorded at fair value have been categorized based on a fair value hierarchy as described in the Fund’s significant accounting policies. The following table presents information about the Fund’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2021:

Assets	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Private Credit	$	—	$	—	$	360,166,897	$	360,166,897
Total Investments, at fair value	$	—	$	—	$	360,166,897	$	360,166,897

The following table presents the changes in assets and transfers in and out which are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy for the year ended September 30, 2021:

6. Capital Stock

The minimum initial investment in Class A Shares and Class Y Shares by any investor is $50,000, the minimum initial investment in Class D Shares and Class I Shares by any investor is $5,000,000, and the minimum initial investment by any investor in Class Z Shares is $10,000,000. However, the Fund, in its sole discretion, may accept investments in any Class of Shares below these minimums. Shares may be purchased by principals and employees of the Investment Manager or its affiliates and their immediate family members without being subject to the minimum investment requirements. Class Y and Class D Shares were issued at $100.00 per share and Class A, Class I, and Class Z Shares were issued at $100.53 per share.

Class A Shares and Class D Shares are subject to a sales charge of up to 3.50%. No sales charge is expected to be charged with respect to investments by the Investment Manager or its affiliates, and their respective directors, principals, officers and employees and others in the Investment Manager’s sole discretion. The full amount of the sales charge may be reallowed to brokers or dealers participating in the offering. Your financial intermediary may impose additional charges when you purchase Shares of the Fund. Neither Class I, Class Y nor Class Z Shares are subject to any sales charge.

Because the Fund is a closed-end fund, and Shareholders do not have the right to require the Fund to redeem Shares, the Fund may from time to time offer to repurchase Shares pursuant to written tenders by Shareholders, in order to provide a limited degree of liquidity to Shareholders. Repurchases will be made at such times, in such amounts and on such terms as may be determined by the Board, in its sole discretion. In determining whether the Fund should offer to repurchase Shares, the Board will consider a variety of operational, business and economic factors. The Investment Manager expects to ordinarily recommend that the Board authorize the Fund to offer to repurchase Shares from Shareholders quarterly with March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 valuation dates (or, if any such date is not a Business Day, on the last Business Day of such calendar quarter).

If the interval between the date of purchase of Shares and the valuation date with respect to the repurchase of such Shares is less than 365 calendar days, then such repurchase will be subject to a 2.00% early repurchase fee payable to the Fund. In determining whether the repurchase of Shares is subject to an early repurchase fee, the Fund will repurchase that portion of the Shares held the longest first.

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

PROXY POLICY

INTRODUCTION

Keystone National Group, LLC (“Keystone”) acts as the advisor to the Keystone Private Income Fund (“the Fund”). Rule 206(4)-6 under the Advisers Act requires a registered investment adviser with voting authority over client proxies to adopt proxy voting policies and procedures, including procedures to address material conflicts of interest, and to disclose such procedures and its specific voting history to clients.¹ The Rule does not apply to advisers whose clients retain voting authority, smaller investment advisers who are registered with state securities authorities, or investment advisers who are not required to register under the Advisers Act.

An adviser subject to the Rule is required to:

· adopt and implement written policies and procedures that are reasonably designed to ensure that the adviser votes proxies in the best interests of its clients; describe such procedures to clients and, upon request, provide a summary of the procedures to clients;

· disclose to clients how they may obtain information on how the adviser voted their proxies; and

· retain certain written records about its proxy voting. (See Section XIX. – “Recordkeeping Requirements” below for a more complete description.)

The Rule applies to all advisers that have explicit or implicit proxy voting authority over client securities. The SEC has clarified that an overall delegation of discretionary authority to an adviser constitutes implicit proxy voting authority, even though an advisory contract may be silent on this point. The Rule does not apply to advisers who do not have authority to vote the proxies themselves but provide advice to clients about voting proxies.

The SEC did not mandate specific proxy voting policies and procedures. However, the SEC encouraged the design of policies and procedures that address:

· how an adviser votes its proxies on behalf of its clients; and

· the particular factors that an adviser takes into consideration when voting on particular matters.

The Rule also specifically requires that the procedures address material conflicts that may arise between an adviser or its affiliates and its clients (such as when the adviser has business or personal relationships with participants in proxy contests, corporate directors or candidates for directorship). The SEC noted that a policy of disclosing conflicts to a client and obtaining direction from the client on how to vote would satisfy the requirement of the Rule (although certain additional consideration should be given to this alternative in the case of employee benefit plan clients). Otherwise, the adviser must be able to demonstrate that its vote was based on the client’s best interest and not on the interests of the adviser.

¹ The SEC issued a Staff Legal Bulletin recently providing guidance on investment advisers’ proxy voting responsibilities and use of outside proxy advisory firms. The bulletin noted that when considering the retention (or continuation of an existing retention) of a proxy advisory firm to provide voting recommendations, an adviser should assess such firm’s ability to competently and adequately analyze proxy issues. The bulletin also highlighted the importance of policies and procedures designed to ensure (a) adequate oversight of an outside proxy advisory firm; (b) that the investment adviser is apprised of any applicable changes to the proxy firm’s business or any new potential conflicts of interest; and (c) that proxies are being voted in the best interest of clients (see Proxy Voting: Proxy Voting Responsibilities of Investment Advisers and Availability of Exemptions from the Proxy Rules for Proxy Advisory Firms, June 30, 2014).

The SEC staff has also issued guidance on an investment adviser’s responsibilities in retaining proxy advisory firms.² The guidance suggests that advisers have an ongoing duty to monitor proxy advisory firms to ensure that the firms have the capacity and competency to adequately analyze proxy issues. The SEC staff has indicated that an adviser should take reasonable steps to verify that a proxy advisory firm is independent and can make proxy voting recommendations in an impartial manner and in the best interests of the adviser’s clients.

Conflicts of Interest

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one fund or other account. More specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple funds and/or other accounts may be presented with one or more of the following potential conflicts:

The management of multiple funds and/or other accounts may result in a Portfolio Manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each fund and/or other account. The Investment Manager seeks to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of the Portfolio Managers by having the Portfolio Managers focus on a particular investment discipline. Most other accounts managed by the Portfolio Managers are managed using the same investment models that are used in connection with the management of the Fund.

If a Portfolio Manager identifies a limited investment opportunity which may be suitable for more than one fund or other account, a fund may not be able to take full advantage of that opportunity due to an allocation of filled purchase or sale orders across all eligible funds and other accounts. To deal with these situations, the Investment Manager has adopted procedures for allocating portfolio transactions across multiple accounts.

The Investment Manager has adopted certain compliance procedures which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

(a)(3) Compensation Structure of Portfolio Manager

Compensation of the Portfolio Managers 

Total compensation paid to each Portfolio Manager includes a base salary fixed from year to year, a discretionary performance bonus and eligibility for a share of carried interest/performance fees in closed-end funds managed by the Investment Manager. The amounts paid to the Portfolio Managers are based on a percentage of the fees earned by the Investment Manager from managing the Fund and other investment accounts. The performance bonus reflects individual performance and the performance of the Investment Manager’s business as a whole. The discretionary performance bonus is determined by senior management of the Investment Manager and is based on a wide variety of factors, including without limitation investment performance, quality of work, contributions to non-investment related efforts and organizational development.

The compensation structure of key investment professionals is structured to incent long-term client retention and client service, to attract and retain highly qualified investment management professionals and to reward individual and team contributions toward creating shareholder value.
