Any references in this Agreement to the Capital Account of a Member shall be deemed to refer to such Capital Account as the same may be increased or decreased from time to time as set forth above. In furtherance of the foregoing and in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.1061-3(c)(3)(ii)(B), the Company shall, (i) calculate separate allocations attributable to (A) the Performance Participation Allocation and any other distribution entitlements that are not commensurate with capital contributed to the Company, and (B) any distribution entitlements of the Members that are commensurate with capital contributed to the Company (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1061-3(c)(3)(ii)(B) and as reasonably determined by the Company), and (ii) consistently reflect each such allocation in its books and records.

28

Section 8.3 Computation of Amounts. For purposes of computing the amount of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or expense to be reflected in Capital Accounts, the determination, recognition and classification of each such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for U.S. federal income tax purposes; provided that:

(i) any income that is exempt from U.S. federal income tax shall be added to such taxable income or losses;

(ii) any expenditures of the Company described in Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code or treated as Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) expenditures pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i), shall be subtracted from such taxable income or losses;

(iii) if the Book Value of any Company property is adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) (in connection with a distribution of such property) or (f) (in connection with a revaluation of Capital Accounts), then the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into account as gain or loss from the disposition of such property;

(iv) if property that is reflected on the books of the Company has a Book Value that differs from the adjusted tax basis of such property, then depreciation, amortization and gain or loss with respect to such property shall be determined by reference to such Book Value; and

(v) the computation of all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and expense shall be made without regard to any election pursuant to Section 754 of the Code that may be made by the Company, unless the adjustment to basis of Company property pursuant to such election is reflected in Capital Accounts pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(m).

Section 8.4 Negative Capital Accounts. No Member shall be required to pay to the Company or any other Member any deficit or negative balance which may exist from time to time in such Member’s Capital Account.

Section 8.5 Adjustments to Book Value. The Company shall adjust the Book Value of its assets to fair market value in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section l.704-l(b)(2)(iv)(f) as of the following times: (a) at the Board of Directors’ discretion, in connection with the issuance of Shares and the computation of NAV; (b) at the Board of Directors’ discretion, in connection with the distribution by the Company to a Member of more than a de minimis amount of Company assets, including cash, if as a result of such distribution, such Member’s interest in the Company is reduced (including a redemption); and (c) the liquidation of the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(g). Any such increase or decrease in Book Value of an asset made pursuant to Section 8.5(a) or (b) shall, as a matter of administrative convenience, occur on a quarterly basis to take into consideration the contributions by and distributions to Members over the course of a given quarter. Furthermore, any such increase or decrease in Book Value of an asset shall be allocated as a Profit or Loss to the Capital Accounts of the Members under Section 9.2 (determined immediately prior to the issuance of the new Shares or the distribution of assets in an ownership reduction transaction).

Section 8.6 Compliance With Section 1.704-1(b). The provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with Section 1.704-1(b) of the Treasury Regulations, and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury Regulations. If the Board of Directors determines that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto (including debits or credits relating to liabilities which are secured by contributed or distributed property or which are assumed by the Company or any Member), are computed in order to comply with such regulations, the Board of Directors may make such modification, provided

29

that it is not likely to have a material effect on the amount distributable to any Member pursuant to Section 9.1 on the dissolution of the Company. The Board of Directors also shall (a) make any adjustments that are necessary or appropriate to maintain equality between the Capital Accounts of the Members and the amount of Company capital reflected on the Company’s balance sheet, as computed for book purposes, in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(iv)(g), and (b) make any appropriate modifications in the event unanticipated events might otherwise cause this Agreement not to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b).

Section 8.7 Transfer of Capital Accounts. The original Capital Account established for each substituted Member shall be in the same amount as the Capital Account of the Member (or portion thereof) to which such substituted Member succeeds, at the time such substituted Member is admitted to the Company. The Capital Account of any Member whose interest in the Company shall be increased or decreased by means of the transfer of Shares. Any reference in this Agreement to a Capital Contribution of or distribution to a Member that has succeeded any other Member shall include any Capital Contributions or distributions previously made by or to the former Member on account of its Shares.

ARTICLE IX

DISTRIBUTIONS; ALLOCATIONS OF PROFITS AND LOSSES

Section 9.1 Generally.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Sections 18-607 and 18-804 of the Act and the payment or allocation of the Performance Participation Allocation and any Tax Distributions, the Board of Directors shall have sole discretion regarding the amounts and timing of distributions to Members, in each case subject to the retention of, or payment to third parties of, such funds or reserves as the Board of Directors deems necessary with respect to anticipated business needs of the Company which shall include (but not by way of limitation) the payment or the making of provision for the payment when due of Company obligations, including the payment of any management or administrative fees and expenses or any other obligations.

(b) Company distributions may exceed Company earnings and cash flow from operating activities and may be paid from borrowings, offering proceeds and other sources.

(c) Subject to the rights of any holders of Shares specified in any Class Designation and the terms of any Class of Shares specified herein or in any Class Designation, distributions of cash shall be paid to the holders of record of such Shares as of the applicable record date established by the Board of Directors pursuant to Section 11.3(c) pro rata in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests on such record date.

(d) Cash distributions to holders of Shares pursuant to Section 9.1(c) are subject to the terms of the DRIP and such cash distributions will automatically be reinvested under the DRIP in additional whole and fractional Shares unless such holders have elected in their Subscription Agreement to receive distributions in cash. Members may terminate their participation in the DRIP with prior written notice to the Company. Under the DRIP, distributions in respect of Shares are reinvested in Shares of the same Class for a purchase price equal to the most recently available NAV per Share.

(e) The DRIP in effect as of the date hereof is attached as Schedule B to this Agreement. The Board of Directors may, without the consent of any Person, amend, modify, revise or restate the DRIP from time to time and any such amendment, modification, revision or restatement of the DRIP shall not constitute an amendment to this Agreement.

30

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no distribution shall be made to a Member if and to the extent that such distribution would violate the Act or other applicable law.

Section 9.2 Allocation of Profit and Loss.

(a) For each fiscal year of the Company, after adjusting each Member’s Capital Account for all Capital Contributions and distributions during such fiscal year and all special allocations pursuant to Section 9.3 with respect to such fiscal year, all Profits and Losses (including special allocations of distribution fees and other than Profits and Losses specially allocated pursuant to Section 9.3) shall be allocated to the Members’ Capital Accounts in a manner such that, as of the end of such fiscal year, the Capital Account of each Member (which may be either a positive or negative balance) shall be equal to the amount which would be distributed to such Member if the Company were to liquidate all of its assets for the Book Value thereof and distributed the proceeds thereof pursuant to the order of priorities set forth herein, minus such Member’s share of Company Minimum Gain and Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, computed immediately prior to the hypothetical liquidation of the Company’s assets.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager may make such allocations as it deems reasonably necessary to give economic effect to the provision of this Agreement, taking into account such facts and circumstances as it deems reasonably necessary for this purpose.

(b) The Company shall separately track and reflect on its books and records Company Expenses allocable to a single Class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Management Fee), as determined by the Manager in good faith, and allocate such Company Expenses to such Class.

Section 9.3 Special Allocations. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.2:

(a) Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated to the Members, pro rata in proportion to the value of their respective interests in the Company, as determined by the Board of Directors. If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any taxable year, each Member shall be specially allocated items of taxable income or gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(g) (subject to the exceptions thereunder). The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f)(6). This paragraph is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(b) Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated in the manner required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i). Except as otherwise provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during any taxable year, each Member that has a share of such Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain shall be specially allocated items of taxable income or gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, subsequent taxable years) in an amount equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain (subject to the exceptions thereunder). Items to be allocated pursuant to this paragraph shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This paragraph is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c) If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of taxable income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the Adjusted Capital Account deficit (determined according to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)) created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible. This paragraph is intended to comply with the qualified income offset requirements in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

31

(d) No allocation of Loss shall be made pursuant to Section 9.2 to the extent that it causes or increases a deficit balance in any Member’s Adjusted Capital Account. To the extent any allocation of Loss would cause the Adjusted Capital Account balance of any of the Members to have a deficit balance, such Loss shall be allocated to the Members with positive balances in their Adjusted Capital Accounts in proportion with such relative positive Adjusted Capital Account balances.

(e) The allocations set forth in paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) above (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 704.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 9.3 (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating Profits and Losses among Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of Profits and Losses and other items and the Regulatory Allocations (including Regulatory Allocations that, although not yet made, are expected to be made in the future) to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.

Section 9.4 Amounts Withheld. All amounts withheld pursuant to Section 9.10 from any distribution to a Member shall be treated as amounts distributed to such Member pursuant to Section 9.1 for all purposes under this Agreement.

Section 9.5 Tax Allocations: Code Section 704(c).

(a) The income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses of the Company shall be allocated, for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes, among the Members in accordance with the allocation of such income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses among the Members for computing their Capital Accounts, except that if any such allocation is not permitted by the Code or other applicable law, the Company’s subsequent income, gains, losses, deductions and expenses shall be allocated among the Members so as to reflect as nearly as possible the allocations set forth herein in computing their Capital Accounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager in its sole discretion shall make such allocations for tax purposes as may be needed to ensure that allocations are in accordance with the interests of the Members and in a manner intended to give economic effect to the provisions of this Agreement, within the meaning of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. The Board of Directors shall determine all matters concerning allocations for U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. tax purposes not expressly provided for herein in its sole discretion. In the event that the Company’s Shares are repurchased pursuant to Sections 7.7, 10.8 or 10.9 of this Agreement, the Board of Directors may specially allocate additional items of ordinary income or loss or capital gain (including short-term capital gain) or loss to a withdrawing Member insofar as is possible to reduce the difference, if any, between the aggregate amounts allocated to such Member’s Capital Account and the aggregate amount of tax items allocated to such Member. For purposes of the foregoing, the Board of Directors may determine that an equitable method of allocation includes, without limitation, an allocation (i) pro rata based on the relative differences between amounts allocated to the Capital Accounts and the aggregate amounts of tax items allocated to the relevant Members, or (ii) solely to the relevant Members with the greatest such differences (taking into account such allocations).

32

(b) In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss, deduction and expense with respect to any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its fair market value at the time of contribution using any reasonable method (including the “traditional method”) provided for in the Treasury Regulations as selected by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.

(c) If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Section 8.5, subsequent allocations of items of taxable income, gain, loss, deduction and expense with respect to such asset shall take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its Book Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c). Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Board of Directors in any manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intent of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 9.5 are solely for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Member’s Capital Account or share of Profits, Losses, other items or distributions pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event the Class H Member is allocated income or gain for tax purposes in connection with its rights to receive a Performance Participation Allocation prior to a corresponding receipt of cash, the Class H Member shall be entitled to distributions from the Partnership in amounts equal to the U.S. federal, state and local income tax imposed on such allocations calculated using the Assumed Tax Rate, and any non-U.S. income tax imposed on such allocations (“Tax Distributions”); provided that such distributions will be made in the sole discretion of the Manager. Amounts the Class H Member is otherwise entitled to hereunder and the Performance Participation Allocation shall be reduced by the amount of any prior Tax Distributions made to the Class H Member pursuant to this Section 9.5(d) until all such advances are restored in full.

Section 9.6 Allocation of Income and Loss. All items of income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit allocable to any interest in the Company shall be allocated on a monthly basis based upon the results of Company operations during such month, without regard to whether cash distributions were made to the Member during such calendar month; however, such allocation shall be made in accordance with a method permissible under Code Section 704(c) and the regulations thereunder.

Section 9.7 Preparation of Tax Returns. The Board of Directors shall arrange for the preparation and timely filing of all returns with respect to Company income, gains, deductions, losses and other items required of the Company for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes and shall use all reasonable effort to furnish the tax information reasonably required by Members for U.S. federal and state income tax reporting purposes pursuant to Section 12.

Section 9.8 Tax Elections. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Manager shall, in its sole discretion, determine whether to make any available election pursuant to the Code. The Manager shall have the right to seek to revoke any such election, including any election related to the matters described in Section 3.2 upon the Manager’s determination in its sole discretion.

Section 9.9 Tax Matters.

(a) The Board of Directors shall designate the “partnership representative” (the “Partnership Representative”) within the meaning of Section 6223(a) of the Code with respect to operations conducted by the Company pursuant to this Agreement. The Partnership Representative, subject to prior approval by the Board of Directors, is authorized and required to represent the Company (at the expense of the Company) in connection with all examinations of the affairs of the Company by any U.S. federal, state or local tax authorities, including any resulting administrative and judicial proceedings, to expend funds of the

33

Company for professional services and costs associated therewith and may act as or appoint an individual to act as a “designated individual” on behalf, and subject to the direction and control, of the Partnership Representative in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 301.6223-1. The Partnership Representative, subject to prior approval by the Board of Directors, shall be authorized to take any actions necessary under the Code (or any similar state, local or non-U.S. law) that it deems appropriate in its sole discretion, including making an election under Section 6226(a) of the Code with respect to any imputed underpayment. This Section 9.9 shall survive the dissolution, winding-up and termination of the Company, and each Member’s obligations pursuant to this Section 9.9 shall survive such Member’s ceasing to be a Member of the Company.

Section 9.10 Withholding. Each Member hereby indemnifies the Company for and authorizes the Company to withhold from or pay on behalf of or with respect to such Member any amount of U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. taxes that the Board of Directors determines, in its sole discretion, that the Company is required to withhold or pay with respect to any amount distributable to such Member pursuant to this Agreement, including any taxes required to be withheld or paid by the Company, including pursuant to Sections 1441, 1442, 1445, 1446, 1471, 1472 or 6226 of the Code. This Section 9.10 shall survive the dissolution, winding-up and termination of the Company, and each Member’s obligations pursuant to this Section 9.10 shall survive such Member’s ceasing to be a Member of the Company.

Section 10.1 Resignation of a Member. Other than as provided in Section 10.8 with respect to KKR Members, a Member may resign from the Company only by having all of such Member’s Shares repurchased pursuant to Section 10.9 or pursuant to the Share Repurchase Plan, Company Tender Offers or the Repurchase Arrangement, as applicable, or by Assigning all of such Member’s Shares in accordance with this Article X. The resignation of a Member shall not, in and of itself, dissolve or terminate the Company. In the event that a Member ceases to be a member of the Company because of death, legal incompetence, dissolution or other termination, the estate, legal representative or successor of such Member shall be deemed to be the Assignee of the Shares of such Member and may become a Substitute Member only upon compliance with the provisions of Section 10.3. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, no Class G Share may be redeemed, repurchased, Assigned, or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the KKR Member that is the holder thereof; and any purported redemption, repurchase, Assignment or other transfer without such consent shall be null and void to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Section 10.2 Assignment.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Sections 10.2(b) and (c), 10.3 and 10.5 of this Agreement, any Member may Assign all or any portion of the Shares owned by such Member to an Assignee; provided, that:

(i) such Member and such Assignee shall each execute a written Assignment instrument, which shall:

(A) set forth the terms of such Assignment;

(B) evidence the acceptance by the Assignee to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement;

34

(C) include a representation by both such Member and such Assignee that such Assignment was made in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations (including such minimum investment and investor suitability requirements as may then be applicable under state securities laws); and

(D) otherwise be satisfactory in form and substance to the Board of Directors.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Board of Directors shall specifically consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, no Shares may be Assigned:

(i) to a minor or incompetent (unless a guardian, custodian or conservator has been appointed to handle the affairs of such Person);

(ii) to any Person if such Assignment would affect the Company’s existence or qualification as a limited liability company under the Act or the applicable laws of any other jurisdiction in which the Company is then conducting business;

(iii) to any Person not permitted to be an Assignee under applicable law, including applicable federal and state securities laws;

(iv) if such Assignment would result in the transfer of less than 1 Share (unless such Assignment is of all of the Shares owned by such Member);

(v) if such Assignment would result in the retention by such Member of less than 1 Share; or

(vi) if, in the reasonable belief of the Board of Directors, such Assignment might violate applicable law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Shares may be Assigned if, in the determination of the Board of Directors, such Assignment would not be in the best interests of the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any attempt to make any Assignment of Shares in violation of this Section 10.2(b) shall be null and void ab initio.

(c) Assignments made in accordance with this Section 10.2 shall be considered consummated upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions of this Section 10.2 shall have been satisfied.

Section 10.3 Substitution.

(a) An Assignee shall be admitted to the Company as a Substitute Member upon the applicable Assignment being considered consummated pursuant to Section 10.2(c) and the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) the Board of Directors has reasonably determined that all conditions specified in Section 10.2 have been satisfied and that no adverse effect to the Company does or may result from such admission; and

35

(b) An Assignee who does not become a Substitute Member in accordance with this Section 10.3 and who desires to make a further Assignment of its, his or her Shares shall be subject to all the provisions of Article X to the same extent and in the same manner as a Member desiring to make an Assignment of Shares. Failure or refusal of the Board of Directors to admit an Assignee as a Substitute Member shall in no way affect the right of such Assignee to receive distributions and the share of the Profits or Losses for tax purposes to which its, his or her predecessor in interest would have been entitled in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 10.4 Status of an Assigning Member. Any Member that shall Assign all of its, his or her Shares shall be deemed to have resigned from the Company as a Member, cease to be a Member and shall no longer have any of the rights or privileges of a Member.

(a) No Member shall make any transfer or assignment of all or any part of its, his or her Shares if said transfer or assignment, when considered with all other transfers during the same applicable 12 month period, would, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, result in the termination of the Company’s status as a partnership, or cause the Company to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal or state income tax purposes.

(b) No Member shall make any transfer or assignment of all or any of its, his or her Shares unless the transferee that would have been qualified to purchase Shares in the offering of Shares. The Board of Directors may require that transferees acquire or hold a minimum number of Shares.

(c) Each Member that is a legal entity acknowledges that its management shall have a fiduciary responsibility for the safekeeping and use of all funds and assets of any Assignee to all or a portion of its interest as a Member, and that the management of each Member that is a legal entity shall not employ, or permit another to employ such funds or assets that are attributable to any Assignee of all or a portion of such Member’s interest as a Member in any manner except for the exclusive benefit of the Assignee. Each Member agrees that it will not contract away the foregoing fiduciary duty.

Section 10.6 Elimination or Modification of Restrictions. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Article X, the Board of Directors may amend this Agreement without the consent of any Person to eliminate or modify any restriction on substitution of Members or assignment of Shares at such time as the restriction is no longer necessary or advisable.

If the Board of Directors so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the Members entitled to vote at or attend such meeting unless the Board of Directors determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determinations. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining Members entitled to notice of or to vote at or attend a meeting of Members shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of Members of record entitled to notice of or to vote at or attend a meeting of Members shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for determination of Members entitled to vote at or attend the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for Members entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of Members entitled to vote in accordance herewith at or attend the adjourned meeting.

(b) In order that the Company may determine the Members entitled to express consent to Company action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than 10 days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no record date for determining Members entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for such purpose shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Company in accordance with applicable law.

(c) In order that the Company may determine the Members entitled to receive payment of any distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of Shares or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall not be more than 60 days prior to such action. If no such record date is fixed, the record date for determining Members for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

The Board of Directors shall designate a Person to serve as chairman of any meeting, who, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall, among other things, be entitled to exercise the powers of the Board of Directors set forth in this Section. The Board of Directors may make such other regulations consistent with applicable law and this Agreement as it may deem necessary or advisable concerning the conduct of any meeting of the Members or solicitation of Member action by written consent in lieu of a meeting, including regulations in regard to the appointment of proxies, the appointment and duties of inspectors of votes and approvals, the submission and examination of proxies and other evidence of the right to vote, and the revocation of ballots, proxies and written consents.

Section 11.5 Adjournment. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting and a new record date need not be fixed, if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, unless such adjournment shall be for more than 30 days. At the adjourned meeting, the Company may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each Member entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for determination of Members entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix as the record date for determining Members entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of Members entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each Member of record as of the record date so fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

Section 11.6 Quorum. The Members holding a majority of the outstanding Shares of the Class or Classes entitled to vote at a meeting (including Shares owned by the KKR Members) represented in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of Members of such Class or Classes unless any such action by the Members requires approval by Members holding a greater percentage of such Shares, in which case the quorum shall be such greater percentage. At any meeting of Members duly called and held in accordance with this Agreement at which a quorum is present, the act of Members holding outstanding Shares that in the aggregate represents a majority of the outstanding Shares entitled to vote at such meeting shall be deemed to constitute the act of all Members, unless a greater or different percentage is required with respect to such action under this Agreement or applicable law, in which case the act of the Members holding outstanding Shares that in the aggregate represents at least such greater or different percentage of the voting power shall be required. The Members present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough Members to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by the required percentage of the outstanding Shares specified in this Agreement (including Shares owned by the KKR Members). In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of Members may be adjourned from time to time by the affirmative vote of Members holding at least a majority of the Shares present and entitled to vote at such meeting (including Shares owned by the KKR Members) represented either in person or by proxy, but no other business may be transacted, except as provided in Section 11.5.

Section 11.7 Proxies. The Board of Directors may adopt procedures with respect to the use of proxies at any meeting of Members.

Section 11.8 Member Action Without a Meeting. If consented to by the Board of Directors in writing (which consent shall not be required with respect to any action to be taken solely by the Class G Members), any action that may be taken at a meeting of the Members entitled to vote may be taken without a meeting, without a vote and without prior notice, if a consent or consents in writing setting forth the action so taken are signed by Members owning not less than the minimum percentage of the outstanding Shares (including Shares owned by the KKR Members) that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all the Members entitled to vote were present and voted.

Section 11.9 Limited Voting Rights of the Members.

Subject to the terms of any Class Designation, the Members (other than the KKR Members) shall be entitled to vote only on the following matters specified in this Section 11.9, and shall otherwise have no voting rights whatsoever with respect to the Company:

(a) The Company shall not merge, consolidate, convert, or divide (pursuant to Section 18-217 of the Act) without the consent of Members holding a majority of the outstanding Shares of all Classes.

Section 15.1 Generally; Specific Authorization.

(a) The Company and any Controlled Portfolio Company of the Company shall not consummate any sale of a portfolio company to, or acquisition of a portfolio company from KKR, any KKR Vehicle, any of their respective Affiliates or any Controlled Portfolio Company unless such transaction (A) is on terms no less favorable to the Company than could have been obtained on an arm’s length basis from an unrelated third party and (B) has been approved in advance by (x) the Executive Committee and (y) Special Approval.

(b) Unless otherwise expressly provided for in this Article XV, whenever a potential conflict of interest exists or arises, any resolution or course of action by the Board of Directors, the Manager or Affiliates of the Manager (including KKR and the KKR Vehicles) in respect of such conflict of interest shall be permitted and deemed approved by all Members, and shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement, of any agreement contemplated herein, or of any duty otherwise existing hereunder, at law or in equity, if the resolution or course of action in respect of such conflict of interest is (i) approved by Special Approval, (ii) determined by the Board of Directors or the Manager, as applicable, to be on terms which are, in the aggregate, no less favorable to the Company than those generally being provided to or available from unrelated third parties, (iii) determined by the Board of Directors or the Manager, as applicable, to be fair and reasonable to the Company, taking into account the totality of the relationships between the parties involved (including other transactions that may be particularly favorable or advantageous to the Company) or (iv) approved by the vote of Members owning a majority of the Investor Shares (excluding Investor Shares owned by KKR and its Affiliates). The Board of Directors or the Manager shall be authorized but not required, in connection with its resolution of such conflict of interest, to seek Special Approval or Member approval of such conflict of interest, and the Board of Directors or the Manager may also adopt a resolution or course of action that has not received Special Approval or Member approval.

(a) Whenever the Manager or the Board of Directors, or any committee thereof (including the Audit Committee), makes a determination or takes or declines to take any other action, or any Affiliate of the Manager causes the Manager to do so, in its capacity as the Manager as opposed to in its individual capacity, whether under this Agreement or any other agreement, then, unless another express lesser standard is provided for in this Agreement, the Manager, the Board of Directors or such committee or such Affiliates causing the Manager to do so, shall make such determination or take or decline to take such other action in good faith and shall not be subject to any other or different duties or standards (including fiduciary duties or standards) imposed by this Agreement, any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Act or any other law, rule or regulation or at equity. A determination or other action or inaction will conclusively be deemed to be in “good faith” for all purposes of this Agreement, if the Person or Persons making such determination or taking or declining to take such other action subjectively believes that the determination or other action or inaction is in, or not adverse to, the best interests of the Company; provided, however, that if the Board of Directors or the Manager is making a determination or taking or declining to take an action pursuant to clause (ii) or clause (iii) of the first sentence of Section 15.1(b), then in lieu thereof, such determination or other action or inaction will conclusively be deemed to be in “good faith” for all purposes of this Agreement if the members of the Board of Directors or the Manager, as applicable, making such determination or taking or declining to take such other action subjectively believe that the determination or other action or inaction meets the standard set forth in clause (ii) or clause (iii) of the first sentence of Section 15.1(b), as applicable. Whenever in this Agreement the Board of Directors, the Manager, the Audit Committee or the Repurchase Committee is permitted or required to make a decision in its “sole discretion” or “discretion” or that it deems “necessary or appropriate” or “necessary or advisable” or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, the Board of Directors, the Manager, the Audit Committee or the Repurchase Committee, as applicable, shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires, including the interests of KKR and its Affiliates, and shall not be subject to any other or different duties or standards (including fiduciary duties or standards) imposed by this Agreement, any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Act or any other law, rule or regulation or at equity. When resolving a conflict of interest or a potential conflict of interest, including pursuant to Section 15.1, the Board of Directors or the Audit Committee may consider any factors and other information that the Board of Directors or the Audit Committee, as applicable, determines in its sole discretion to consider.

(b) Whenever the Manager or a member of the Board of Directors makes a determination or takes or declines to take any other action, or any of their respective Affiliates causes it or such member to do so, in its or such member’s individual capacity as opposed to in its capacity as Manager or in such member’s capacity as a Director, as applicable, whether under this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby or otherwise, then the Manager or such member, as applicable, or such Affiliates causing it or such member to do so, are entitled, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to make such determination or to take or decline to take such other action free of any duty or obligation whatsoever to the Company, any Member or any other Person bound by this Agreement, and the Manager or such member, as applicable, or such Affiliates causing it or such member to do so, shall not, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be required to act in good faith or pursuant to any other standard imposed by this Agreement, any other agreement contemplated hereby or under the Act or any other law, rule or regulation or at equity, and the Person or Persons making such determination or taking or declining to take such other action shall be permitted to do so in their sole discretion.

Section 15.3 Modification of Duties. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or expressly required by the Act, neither the Manager nor any of the Indemnified Parties shall have any duties or liabilities, including fiduciary duties, to the Company, any Member or any other Person bound by this Agreement, and the provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict, eliminate or otherwise modify the duties and liabilities, including fiduciary duties, of the Manager or the Indemnified Parties otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Manager or the Indemnified Parties. Any exculpation or indemnification standards contained herein shall not restore or create, whether in contract or otherwise, any such duties or liabilities.

47

Section 15.4 Corporate Opportunity; Authorization to Compete. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any duty that would otherwise exist at law or in equity, each of the Indemnified Parties may engage in or possess an interest in any other business or venture of any kind, independently or with others, on its own behalf or on behalf of other entities with which any of the Indemnified Parties is an Affiliate or otherwise, and each of the Indemnified Parties may engage in any such activities, whether or not competitive with the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, without any obligation to offer any interest in such activities to the Company, an Affiliate of the Company or to any other Member. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any duty that would otherwise exist at law or in equity, neither the Company, any Affiliate of the Company nor any Member shall have any right, by virtue of this Agreement or the existence of the Company, in or to such activities, or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of such activities, even if competitive with the business of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper or the breach of this Agreement or of any duty otherwise existing hereunder, at law, in equity or otherwise.

The Members acknowledge and agree that the Company may enter into joint ventures with KKR Vehicles and that the Indemnified Parties may owe duties (including fiduciary duties) to such other KKR Vehicles now or in the future and that, (i) such duties (including fiduciary duties) may take priority over the duties of such Indemnified Party to the Company, including the Members, and (ii) to the extent an Indemnified Party acts in compliance with its duties (including fiduciary duties) to any such KKR Vehicle, any action taken or omission with respect to the Company in connection with or arising from such compliance shall be deemed consistent with the terms of this Agreement, including the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or of any duty otherwise existing at law, in equity or otherwise.

ARTICLE XVI

LIABILITY LIMITATION, INDEMNIFICATION

AND TRANSACTIONS WITH THE COMPANY

Section 16.1 Limitation of Member Liability. Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement or in any Class Designation and except as required by law, the liability of each Member in such capacity shall be limited to the amount of such Member’s Capital Contribution and pro rata share of any undistributed Profits. Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement or in any Class Designation and except as required by law, after the payment of all subscription proceeds for the Shares purchased by such Member, no Member shall have any further obligations to the Company, be subject to any additional assessment or be required to contribute any additional capital to, or to loan any funds to, the Company, unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the Member. No Member shall have any personal liability on account of any obligations and liabilities of, including any amounts payable by, the Company under or pursuant to, or otherwise in connection with, this Agreement or the conduct of the business of the Company solely by reason of being a member of the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no Member shall have any duties (including fiduciary duties) or obligations to the Company or any other Member.

Section 16.2 Limitation of Liability.

(a) To the fullest extent and in the manner permitted by applicable law, no Indemnified Party will be liable to the Company, any Member or any other Person bound by this Agreement for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts arising as a result of: (i) any act or omission of an Indemnified Party, or for any breach of contract (including a breach of this Agreement) or any breach of duties (including breach of fiduciary duties) whether arising hereunder, at law, in equity or otherwise, unless there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining

48

that, (A) in respect of the matter in question, the Indemnified Party acted in bad faith or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct or (B) the Indemnified Party’s action or omission was not made during the course of performing, or pursuant to, the Indemnified Party’s duties as a director, officer, trustee, manager, employee or agent of the Company or an Affiliate thereof, (ii) any action or omission to act by any other Person, (iii) any mistake, action, inaction, negligence, dishonesty, fraud or bad faith of any broker, placement agent or other agent as provided in this Agreement or (iv) any change in U.S. federal, state or local or non-U.S. income tax laws, or in interpretations thereof, as they apply to the Company or the Members, whether the change occurs through legislative, judicial or administrative action. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no Member shall be liable to the Company, any other Member or any other Person bound by this Agreement.

(b) Each Indemnified Party may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisers selected by it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the advice or opinion of such Persons as to matters that such Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be within such Person’s professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such advice or opinion.

(c) Each Indemnified Party shall, in the performance of such Person’s duties, be fully protected in relying in good faith upon records of the Company.

(d) Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 16.2 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability of the Indemnified Parties under this Section 16.2 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

Section 16.3 Indemnification.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, (i) the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party 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 as a result of any act or omission of an Indemnified Party, or for any breach of contract (including breach of this Agreement) or any breach of duties (including breach of fiduciary duties) whether arising hereunder, at law, in equity or otherwise; provided, that an Indemnified Party will not be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement (x) if there has been a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction determining that the Indemnified Party’s action or omission constitutes fraud, willful misconduct or bad faith or the Indemnified Party’s actions or omissions were not made during the course of performing or pursuant to the Indemnified Party’s duties as a director, officer, trustee, manager, employee or agent of the Company or an Affiliate thereof or (y) for any losses, liabilities or damages arising out of an internal dispute solely between KKR, its Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, shareholders, members or employees, (ii) the Company shall also have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, by reason of the fact that the person is or was an employee or agent of the Company, or, while serving as an employee or agent of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or non-profit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, its participants or beneficiaries, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee, from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses of any kind, including legal fees and amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromises

49

and settlements, as fines and penalties and legal or other costs and expenses of investigating or defending against any claim or alleged claim, of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, that are incurred by such person, 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 Company, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The Executive Committee shall have the non-exclusive authority to determine the extent to which employees or agents are entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 16.3(a)(ii).

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall promptly pay expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by any person described in Section 16.3(a) in appearing at, participating in or defending any action, suit, claim or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, claim or proceeding, including appeals, upon presentation of an undertaking on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 16.3 or otherwise.

(c) The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred in this Section 16.3 shall not be exclusive of any rights to which any Indemnified Party may otherwise be entitled or hereafter acquire under any law, statute, rule, regulation, charter document, by-law, contract or agreement. The indemnification obligation of the Company to an Indemnified Party with respect to any indemnifiable amounts shall be reduced by any indemnification payments actually received by such Indemnified Party from any member of the Company Group with respect to the same indemnifiable amounts. Solely for purposes of clarification, and without expanding the scope of indemnification pursuant to this Section 16.3, the Members intend that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, as between (a) the Company Group and (b) the Company, this Section 16.3 shall be interpreted to reflect an ordering of liability for potentially overlapping or duplicative indemnification payments, with any applicable Person in the Company Group having primary liability and the Company having only secondary liability. The possibility that an Indemnified Party may receive indemnification payments from a Person in the Company Group shall not restrict the Company from making payments under this Section 16.3 to an Indemnified Party that is otherwise eligible for such payments, but such payments by the Company are not intended to relieve any Person in the Company Group from any liability that it would otherwise have to make indemnification payments to such Indemnified Party and, if an Indemnified Party that has received indemnification payments from the Company actually receives duplicative indemnification payments from a Person in the Company Group for the same indemnifiable amounts, such Indemnified Party shall repay the Company to the extent of such duplicative payments. If, notwithstanding the intention of this Section 16.3, a Person in the Company Group’s obligation to make indemnification payments to an Indemnified Party is relieved or reduced under applicable law as a result of payments made by the Company pursuant to this Section 16.3, or if otherwise necessary to effect the intention of the Members in this Section 16.3, the Company shall have, to the maximum extent permitted by law, a right of subrogation against (or contribution from) such Person in the Company Group for amounts paid by the Company to an Indemnified Party that relieved or reduced the obligation of such Person in the Company Group to such Indemnified Party. As used in this Section 16.3, “indemnification” payments made or to be made by a Person in the Company Group shall be deemed to include (i) advancement of expenses in connection with indemnification obligations, (ii) payments made or to be made by any successor to the indemnification obligations of such Person in the Company Group and (iii) equivalent payments made or to be made by or on behalf of such Person in the Company Group (or such successor) pursuant to an insurance policy or similar arrangement.

(d) The indemnification provided by this Section 16.3 shall be in addition to any other rights to which an Indemnified Party may be entitled under this Agreement, any other agreement, pursuant to any vote of the Members, as a matter of law, in equity or otherwise, both as to actions in the Indemnified Party’s capacity as an Indemnified Party and as to actions in any other capacity, and shall continue as to an Indemnified Party who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Indemnified Party.

50

(e) The Company may purchase and maintain (or reimburse the Manager or its Affiliates for the cost of) insurance, on behalf of the Indemnified Parties and such other Persons as the Board of Directors shall determine, against any liability that may be asserted against, or expense that may be incurred by, such Person in connection with the Company’s activities or such Person’s activities on behalf of the Company, regardless of whether the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions of this Agreement.

(f) The provisions of this Section 16.3 are for the benefit of the Indemnified Parties and their heirs, successors, assigns, executors and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons.

(g) No amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 16.3 or any provision hereof shall in any manner terminate, reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Indemnified Party to be indemnified by the Company, nor the obligations of the Company to indemnify any such Indemnified Party under and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 16.3 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

ARTICLE XVII

• Under this Plan, to the extent the Company chooses to repurchase Shares in any particular quarter, the Company will only repurchase Shares as of the close of the fifth calendar day of the second month of that quarter, unless such day is not a business day, in which case we will repurchase Shares as of the close of the next succeeding business day (a “Repurchase Date”). To have Shares repurchased, a Shareholder’s repurchase request and required documentation must be received in good order by 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Repurchase Date of the applicable calendar quarter. Settlements of share repurchases will generally be made within three business days of the Repurchase Date. Repurchase requests received and processed by the Company’s transfer agent will be effected at a repurchase price equal to the Transaction Price on the applicable Repurchase Date (which will generally be equal to the Company’s NAV per share as of the last month of the prior quarter).

• A Shareholder may withdraw his or her repurchase request by notifying the transfer agent, directly or through the Shareholder’s financial intermediary, on the Company’s toll-free, automated telephone line, +1 (855) 844-8655. The line is open on each business day between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). Repurchase requests must be cancelled before 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Repurchase Date of the applicable calendar quarter.

• If a repurchase request is received after 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Repurchase Date of the applicable calendar quarter, the repurchase request will not be executed and, if a Shareholder still wishes to have its Shares repurchased, must be resubmitted after the start of the next calendar quarter. Repurchase requests received and processed by the Company’s transfer agent on a business day, but after the close of business on that day or on a day that is not a business day, will be deemed received on the next business day. All questions as to the form and validity (including time of receipt) of repurchase requests and notices of withdrawal will be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, and such determination shall be final and binding.

• Repurchase requests may be made by mail or by contacting the Shareholder’s financial intermediary, both subject to certain conditions described in this Plan. If making a repurchase request by contacting the Shareholder’s financial intermediary, the Shareholder’s financial intermediary may require the Shareholder to provide certain documentation or information. If making a repurchase request by mail to the transfer agent, the Shareholder must complete and sign a repurchase authorization form, which can be found at the end of this Plan and which is available on the Company’s website, www.kkr.com/kpec. Written requests should be sent to the transfer agent at the following address:

Toll Free Number: +1 (855) 844-8655

Corporate investors and other non-individual entities must have an appropriate certification on file authorizing repurchases. A signature guarantee may be required.

• For processed repurchases, Shareholders may request that repurchase proceeds are to be paid by mailed check provided that the check is mailed to an address on file with the transfer agent for at least 30 days. The Shareholder should check with its broker-dealer that such payment may be made via check or wire transfer, as further described below.

• Shareholders may also receive repurchase proceeds via wire transfer, provided that wiring instructions for their brokerage account or designated U.S. bank account are provided. For all repurchases paid via wire transfer, the funds will be wired to the account on file with the transfer agent or, upon instruction, to another financial institution provided that the Shareholder has made the necessary funds transfer arrangements. The customer service representative can provide detailed instructions on establishing funding arrangements and designating a bank or brokerage account on file. Funds will be wired only to U.S. financial institutions (ACH network members).

• A medallion signature guarantee will be required in certain circumstances described below. A medallion signature guarantee may be obtained from a domestic bank or trust company, broker-dealer, clearing agency, savings association or other financial institution which participates in a medallion program recognized by the Securities Transfer Association. The three recognized medallion programs are the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program and the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion Signature Program. Signature guarantees from financial institutions that are not participating in any of these medallion programs will not be accepted. A notary public cannot provide signature guarantees. The Company reserves the right to amend, waive or discontinue this policy at any time and establish other criteria for verifying the authenticity of any repurchase or transaction request. The Company may require a medallion signature guarantee if, among other reasons: (1) the amount of the repurchase request is over $500,000; (2) a Shareholder wishes to have repurchase proceeds transferred by wire to an account other than the designated bank or brokerage account on file for at least 30 days or sent to an address other than such Shareholder’s address of record for the past 30 days; or (3) the Company’s transfer agent cannot confirm a Shareholder’s identity or suspects fraudulent activity.

• If a Shareholder has made multiple purchases of the Company’s Class S, Class D, Class U, Class I, Class R-S, Class R-D, Class R-U, Class R-I or Class F shares, any repurchase request will be processed on a first in/first out basis unless otherwise requested in the repurchase request.

Early Repurchase Fee

Requests for repurchase will be subject to an early repurchase fee (the “Early Repurchase Fee”) of 5% of the NAV of the Investor Shares repurchased from a Shareholder if Investor Shares are repurchased within 24 months of the original issue date of such Shares.

Any Early Repurchase Fee will inure to the benefit of the Company. The Company may, from time to time, waive the Early Repurchase Fee in the case of repurchases resulting from death, qualifying disability or divorce.

All questions as to the applicability of the Early Repurchase Fee including the specific facts pertaining thereto and the validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt of required documents) of a waiver from the Early Repurchase Fee will be determined by the Manager, in its sole discretion, and its determination will be final and binding.

Sources of Funds for Repurchases

The Company may fund repurchase requests from sources other than cash flow from operations, including, without limitation, borrowings, offering proceeds and the sale of the Company’s assets, and the Company has no limits on the amounts it may fund from such sources.

Repurchase Limitations

The Company may repurchase fewer shares than have been requested in any particular quarter to be repurchased under this Plan, or none at all, in its discretion at any time. In addition, the aggregate NAV of total repurchases of the Company’s Shares will be limited to no more than 5% of the Company’s aggregate NAV per calendar quarter (measured using the average aggregate NAV as of the end of the immediately preceding three months).

In the event that the Company determines to repurchase some but not all of the Shares submitted for repurchase during any quarter, Shares submitted for repurchase during such quarter will be repurchased on a pro rata basis after the Company has repurchased all Shares for which repurchase has been requested due to death, divorce, dissolution, bankruptcy, insolvency or adjudicated incompetence of the Shareholder. All unsatisfied repurchase requests must be resubmitted after the start of the next quarter, or upon the recommencement of this Plan, as applicable.

If the Transaction Price for the applicable quarter is not made available by the tenth business day prior to the Repurchase Date of the applicable quarter (or is changed after such date), the Company may elect to extend the repurchase offer to a later date or not to accept repurchase requests for such quarter and Shareholders who wish to have their Shares repurchased the following quarter would then be required to resubmit their repurchase requests. The Transaction Price for each quarter will be available on the Company’s website at www.kkr.com/kpec.

The Company will not repurchase Shares if (1) such purchases would impair the Company’s status as a holding company; (2) the Company would not be able to sell its assets in a manner that is orderly and consistent with its objectives in order to repurchase Shares under the Plan; or (3) there is, in the Board’s judgment, any (a) legal action or proceeding instituted or threatened challenging the Plan or otherwise materially adversely affecting the Company, (b) declaration of a banking moratorium by Federal or state authorities or any suspension of payment by banks in the United States or New York State, which is material to the Company, (c) limitation imposed by Federal or state authorities on the extension of credit by lending institutions, (d) commencement or escalation of war, armed hostilities, acts of terrorism, natural disasters, public health crises or other international or national calamity directly or indirectly involving the United States that in the sole determination of the Board is material to the Company, (e) a material decrease in the estimated NAV of the Company from the estimated NAV of the Company as of the commencement of the quarterly repurchase or (f) other events or conditions that would have a material adverse effect on the Company or its Shareholders if Shares were repurchased. Further, the Board may make exceptions to, modify or suspend this Plan if in its reasonable judgment it deems such action to be in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders. Material modifications, including any amendment to the 5% quarterly limitation on repurchases, to and suspensions of this Plan will be promptly disclosed to Shareholders in a supplement to the Company’s private placement memorandum or special or periodic report filed by the Company. Material modifications will also be disclosed on the Company’s website. In addition, the Company may determine to suspend this Plan due to regulatory changes, changes in law or if the Company becomes aware of undisclosed material information that it believes should be publicly disclosed before Shares are repurchased.

If this Plan is suspended, the Board will consider the recommencement of the Plan at least quarterly. Continued suspension of the Plan will only be permitted if the Board determines that the continued suspension of the Plan is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders. The Board must affirmatively authorize the recommencement of the Plan before Shareholder requests will be considered again. The Board cannot terminate this Plan absent a liquidity event which results in the Company’s Shareholders receiving cash or securities listed on a national securities exchange or where otherwise required by law.

As described in the Company’s private placement memorandum, Class E shares of the Company will not be subject to this Plan, including with respect to any repurchase limits or the calculation of NAV.

5 SHARE REPURCHASE PLAN CONSIDERATIONS (Select only one)

Our share repurchase plan contains limitations on the number of shares that can be repurchased under the plan during any calendar quarter. In addition to these limitations, we cannot guarantee that we will have sufficient funds to accommodate all repurchase requests made in any applicable repurchase period and we may elect to repurchase fewer shares than have been requested in any particular calendar quarter, or none at all. If the number of shares subject to repurchase requests exceeds the then applicable limitations, or if we otherwise do not make all requested repurchases, each Shareholder’s request will be reduced on a pro rata basis after we have repurchased all shares for which repurchase has been requested due to death, divorce, dissolution, bankruptcy, insolvency or adjudicated incompetence. If repurchase requests are reduced on a pro rata basis after we have repurchased all shares for which repurchase has been requested due to death, divorce, dissolution, bankruptcy, insolvency or adjudicated incompetence, you may elect (at the time of your repurchase request) to either withdraw your entire request for repurchase or have your request honored on a pro-rata basis. If you wish to have the remainder of your initial request repurchased, you must resubmit a new repurchase request for the remaining amount. Please select one of the following options below. If an option is not selected, your repurchase request will be processed on a pro-rata basis, if needed.

☐ Process my repurchase request on a pro-rata basis.

☐ Withdraw (do not process) my entire repurchase request if amount will be reduced on a pro-rata basis.

SCHEDULE B

[Distribution Reinvestment Plan]

DISTRIBUTION REINVESTMENT PLAN

KKR Private Equity Conglomerate LLC (the “Company”), hereby adopts the following Distribution Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”) with respect to distributions declared by its board of directors (the “Board”), on shares of the Company’s limited liability interests (the “Shares”):

1. Participation; Agent. The Company’s Plan is available to shareholders of record of the Shares. SS&C GIDS, Inc. (“Plan Administrator”) acting as agent for each participant in the Plan, will apply distributions from the Company (each, a “Distribution” and collectively, “Distributions”), net of any applicable withholding taxes, that become payable to such participant on Shares (including Shares held in the participant’s name and Shares accumulated under the Plan), to the purchase of additional whole and fractional Shares for such participant.

2. Eligibility and Election to Participate. Participation in the Plan is limited to registered owners of Shares. The Company’s Board reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. Shareholders automatically participate in the Plan, unless and until an election is made to withdraw from the Plan on behalf of such participating shareholder. If participating in the Plan, a shareholder is required to include all of the Shares owned by such shareholder in the Plan.

3. Share Purchases. When the Company declares a Distribution, the Plan Administrator, on the shareholder’s behalf, will receive additional authorized Shares from the Company either newly issued or repurchased from shareholders by the Company and held as treasury shares. The number of Shares to be received when Distributions are reinvested will be determined by dividing the amount of the Distribution by the Company’s net asset value per Share as of as of the end of the prior month. There will be no sales load charged on Shares issued to a shareholder under the Plan but such Shares will be subject to ongoing distribution and servicing fees. All Shares purchased under the Plan will be held in the name of the relevant participant. In the case of shareholders, such as banks, brokers or nominees, that hold Shares for others who are beneficial owners participating under the Plan, the Plan Administrator will administer the Plan on the basis of the number of Shares certified from time to time by the record shareholder as representing the total amount of Shares registered in the shareholder’s name and held for the account of beneficial owners participating under the Plan. If a shareholder requests that the Company repurchase all of the shareholder’s Shares, any Shares issued to the shareholder under the Plan subsequent to the expiration of the repurchase offer will be considered part of the shareholder’s repurchase request.

4. Timing of Purchases. The Company expects to issue Shares pursuant to the Plan, immediately following each Distribution payment date and the Plan Administrator will make every reasonable effort to reinvest all Distributions on the day the Distribution is paid (except where necessary to comply with applicable securities laws) by the Company. If, for any reason beyond the control of the Plan Administrator, reinvestment of the Distributions cannot be completed within 30 days after the applicable Distribution payment date, funds held by the Plan Administrator on behalf of a participant will be distributed to that participant.

5. Account Statements. The Plan Administrator will maintain all shareholder accounts and furnish written confirmations of all transactions in the accounts, including information needed by shareholders for personal and tax records. The Plan Administrator will hold Shares in the account of the shareholders in non-certificated form in the name of the participant, and each shareholder’s proxy, if any, will include those Shares purchased pursuant to the Plan. The Plan Administrator will confirm to each participant each acquisition made pursuant to the Plan as soon as practicable but not later than 10 business days after the date thereof. No less frequently than quarterly, the Plan Administrator will provide to each participant an account statement showing the Distribution, the number of Shares purchased with the Distribution, and the year-to-date and cumulative Distributions paid.

6. Expenses. There will be no direct expenses to participants for the administration of the Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants with regard to purchases under the Plan; however, the Company reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants. All fees associated with the Plan will be paid by the Company.

7. Taxation of Distributions. Each Shareholder is generally required to take into account its allocable share of items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of the Company in computing its U.S. federal income tax liability, regardless of whether Distributions are made. Distributions of cash by the Company to a Shareholder generally are not taxable to such Shareholder unless the amount of cash distributed to such Shareholder is in excess of the Shareholder’s adjusted basis in its Shares. Accordingly, a Shareholder participating in the Plan may need to use cash from other sources in order to pay any tax liability in respect of its allocable share of items of income and gain allocated to such Shareholder by the Company. Participants in the Plan are urged to refer to “Section IX. Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax and Regulatory Considerations” of our private placement memorandum for additional information regarding the tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Company’s Shares.

8. Absence of Liability. Neither the Company nor the Plan Administrator shall have any responsibility or liability beyond the exercise of ordinary care for any action taken or omitted pursuant to the Plan, nor shall they have any duties, responsibilities or liabilities except such as expressly set forth herein. Neither the Company nor the Plan Administrator shall be liable for any act done in good faith or for any good faith omission to act, including, without limitation, any claims of liability: (a) arising out of the failure to terminate a participant’s account prior to receipt of written notice of such participant’s death, or (b) with respect to prices at which Shares are purchased or sold for the participant’s account and the terms on which such purchases and sales are made. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, LIABILITY UNDER THE U.S. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS CANNOT BE WAIVED.

9. Termination of Participation. A shareholder who does not wish to have Distributions automatically reinvested may terminate participation in the Plan at any time by written instructions to that effect to the Plan Administrator. Such written instructions must be received by the Plan Administrator three (3) days prior to the record date of the Distribution or the shareholder will receive such Distribution in Shares through the Plan. If a shareholder terminates Plan participation, the Company may, at its option, ensure that the terminating shareholder’s account will reflect the number of Shares in such shareholder’s account and provide a check or other instrument of payment for the cash value of any fractional Share in such account. Upon termination of participation in the Plan for any reason, future distributions will be distributed to the shareholder in cash or in-kind. If a shareholder requests that the Company repurchase all of its Shares, such shareholder’s participation in the Plan with respect to such Shares will be terminated, regardless of whether the Company fulfills such request.

10. Amendment, Supplement, Termination, and Suspension of Plan. This Plan may be amended, supplemented, or terminated by the Company at any time in its sole and absolute discretion. The amendment or supplement shall be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to a subsequent appropriate filing made by the Company and shall be deemed to be accepted by each participant unless, prior to its effective date thereof, the Plan Administrator receives written notice of termination of the participant’s account. Amendment may include an appointment by the Company or the Plan Administrator with the approval of the Company of a successor agent, in which event such successor shall have all of the rights and obligations of the Plan Administrator under this Plan. The Company may suspend the Plan at any time without notice to the participants.

11. Governing Law. This Plan and the authorization form signed by the participant (which is deemed a part of this Plan) and the participant’s account shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

Share Repurchase Arrangement

In recognition of the KKR Investor supporting the Company’s initial and potential future acquisitions of portfolio companies, the Company has adopted this Share Repurchase Arrangement.

Timing and Amount of Repurchase Offers

After July 27, 2023, subject to the limitations below, as of the last calendar day of each month the Company will offer to repurchase from the KKR Investor Eligible Shares having an aggregate NAV equal to (1) the Monthly Repurchase Amount for that month plus (2) any Monthly Repurchase Amounts from prior months that have not yet been repurchased. The KKR Investor will notify the Company if and to what extent it elects to have the Company repurchase the Eligible Shares offered for repurchase in a manner agreed upon by the Company and the KKR Investor. The Company will make these repurchase offers until all Eligible Shares have been repurchased from the KKR Investor. For the avoidance of doubt, Eligible Shares are not subject to the 5% quarterly repurchase limitation of the Existing Share Repurchase Plan.

Price of Repurchase Offers

The repurchase price per Share for each repurchase from the KKR Investor will be the Transaction Price for Eligible Shares in effect at the time of repurchase. For the avoidance of doubt, the KKR Investor shall have no obligation to sell its Shares pursuant to a repurchase offer during any calendar month.

Limitations

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no repurchase offer will be made to the KKR Investor during any month in which (1) the 5% quarterly repurchase limitation of the Existing Share Repurchase Plan has been decreased or (2) the full amount of all Shares (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the Eligible Shares) requested to be repurchased under the Existing Share Repurchase Plan is not repurchased. Additionally, should repurchase requests, in the Company’s judgment, place an undue burden on the Company’s liquidity, adversely affect the Company’s operations or risk having an adverse impact on the Company as a whole, the Company may elect not to offer to repurchase shares from the KKR Investor, or may offer to repurchase less than the Monthly Repurchase Amount. Further, the Board may modify, suspend or terminate this share repurchase arrangement if it deems such action to be in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders. Material modifications to and suspensions of this share repurchase arrangement will be promptly disclosed to Shareholders in a supplement to the Company’s private placement memorandum or in a special or periodic report filed by the Company. In addition, the Company may in its sole discretion determine to suspend repurchases under this share repurchase arrangement if it is prohibited from repurchasing Shares by a legal, contractual or regulatory restriction applicable to it or its affiliates.

The KKR Investor will not request that Eligible Shares be repurchased under the Existing Share Repurchase Plan.

14

conflicts will be resolved in favor of the Company, (iv) the Manager and its Affiliates will from time-to-time receive Monitoring Fees, Transaction Fees, Regulated Broker Dealer Fees, Loan Servicing Fees, Service Costs, and Capstone Fees, and while such fees give rise to conflicts of interest, the Company will not receive a Management Fee offset with respect to such fees except as expressly provided for herein, and (v) the terms and conditions of the Governing Agreements of KKR Vehicles (including with respect to the economic, reporting, and other rights afforded to investors in such KKR Vehicles) are materially different from the terms and conditions applicable to the Company and its shareholders, and neither the Company nor any such shareholders (in such capacity) shall have the right to receive the benefit of any such different terms applicable to investors in such KKR Vehicles as a result of an investment in the Company or otherwise.

The determination of such economic benefit to the Company by the Manager is subjective and represents the Manager’s evaluation that the Company is benefited by relatively better purchase or sales prices, lower commission expenses, increased access to opportunities, beneficial timing of transactions or a combination of these and other factors.

(d) Subject to Section 3(b), the Board may periodically review the Company’s business objectives and the Company’s portfolio companies when and as determined in its discretion, but will not review each proposed portfolio company acquisition or other interest acquired by the Company; provided, that the Company shall not consummate any transaction that involves (i) the sale of any portfolio company to or (ii) the acquisition of any portfolio company from, KKR, any KKR Vehicle or any of their respective Affiliates unless such transaction (A) is on terms no less favorable to the Company than could have been obtained on an arm’s length basis from an unrelated third party and (B) has been approved in advance by (x) Executive Committee and (y) a majority of the Independent Directors. In connection with the foregoing, it is understood and/or agreed that while conflicts of interest will arise from time-to-time in connection with the activities of the Company, KKR and the KKR Vehicles (including as more fully described in Section 3(b) above) and that the Manager will seek to resolve any such conflicts of interest in a fair and equitable manner in accordance with the Allocation Policy and its prevailing policies and procedures with respect to conflicts resolution among KKR Vehicles generally, only those transactions set forth above shall be required to be presented for approval by the Independent Directors; provided, that the foregoing shall not limit the ability of the Manager, in its discretion, to present additional matters involving the Company to the Independent Directors from time-to-time for review, advice and/or approval to the extent the Manager reasonably determines that doing so is appropriate under the circumstances (including, without limitation, as a result of a determination that such matters give rise to material conflicts of interest that are appropriate to be reviewed and/or approved by the Independent Directors); provided, further, that if (x) the majority of the Independent Directors approve any matter or transaction presented for their approval despite a conflict of interest after the Manager has disclosed all material facts relating to such conflict of interest or (y) the Manager acts in a manner, or pursuant to standards or procedures, approved by a majority of the Independent Directors with respect to such conflicts of interest that arise or may arise from time to time, then the Manager shall not have any liability to the Company or any shareholder by reason of such conflict of interest for actions in respect of such matter taken in good faith by any of them, including actions in the pursuit of their own interests.

(e) In the event of a Termination Without Cause of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 10(b) hereof, for two (2) years after such termination of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the consent of the Manager, employ or otherwise retain any employee of the Manager or any of its Affiliates or any person who has been employed by the Manager or any of its Affiliates at any time within the two (2) year period immediately preceding the date on which such Person commences employment with or is otherwise retained by the Company. The Company acknowledges and agrees that, in addition to any damages, the Manager may be entitled to equitable relief for any violation of this Section 3(e) by the Company, including, without limitation, injunctive relief.

(f) At the reasonable request of the Board or the Executive Committee, the Manager shall review the Allocation Policy with the Board or the Executive Committee and respond to reasonable questions regarding the Allocation Policy as it relates to services under the Agreement. The Manager shall promptly provide the Board or the Executive Committee with a description of any material amendments, updates and revisions to the Allocation Policy.

Section 4. Bank Accounts. At the direction of the Board or the Executive Committee, the Manager may establish and maintain, as agent on behalf of the Company, one or more bank accounts with a “qualified custodian” in the name of the Company or any Subsidiary in accordance with applicable law, and may cause the Company to deposit into any such account or accounts, and disburse funds from any such account or accounts, under such terms and conditions as the Board may approve; and the Manager shall ensure that such custodian(s) from time to time render statements, including appropriate accountings of such collections and payments to the Board and, upon request, to the auditors of the Company or any Subsidiary.

Section 5. Records; Confidentiality.

The Manager shall maintain appropriate books of account, records and files relating to services performed hereunder, and such books of account, records and files shall be accessible for inspection by representatives of the Company at any time during normal business hours upon advance written notice. The Manager shall have full responsibility for the maintenance, care and safekeeping of all such books of account, records and files (it being understood that services may be provided with respect to the Company by service providers (e.g., administrators, prime brokers and custodians) and so long as such service providers are monitored by the Manager with due care, the Manager shall be in compliance with the foregoing). Until the first (1^st) anniversary of the termination of this Agreement, the Manager shall keep confidential any and all Confidential Information and shall not use Confidential Information in contravention of its duties under this Agreement or disclose Confidential Information, in whole or in part, to any Person other than (i) to officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, advisors of the Manager or its Affiliates who need to know such Confidential Information for the purpose of rendering services hereunder or in furtherance of KKR’s asset management or capital markets businesses, (ii) to appraisers, lenders or other financing sources, co-originators, custodians, administrators, brokers, commercial

16

counterparties or any similar entity and others in the ordinary course of the Company’s business ((i) and (ii) collectively, “Manager Permitted Disclosure Parties”), (iii) in connection with any governmental or regulatory filings of the Company or its Affiliates (including, any filings made by KKR as a result of its status as a public company) or disclosure or presentations to investors of the Company or KKR (subject to compliance with Regulation FD), (iv) to governmental agencies or officials having jurisdiction over the Company or the Manager, (v) as requested by law, legal process or regulatory request to which the Manager or any Person to whom disclosure is permitted hereunder is a party or subject, (vi) to existing or prospective investors in KKR Vehicles and their advisors to the extent such Persons reasonably request such information, subject to an undertaking of confidentiality, non-disclosure and non-use, or (vii) otherwise with the consent of the Company, including pursuant to a separate agreement entered into between the Manager and/or any KKR Vehicles and the Company. The Manager agrees to inform each of its Manager Permitted Disclosure Parties of the non-public nature of the Confidential Information. Nothing herein shall prevent the Manager from disclosing Confidential Information (i) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (ii) upon the request or demand of, or pursuant to any law or regulation to, any regulatory agency or authority, (iii) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, or (iv) to its legal counsel or independent auditors; provided, however that with respect to clauses (i) and (ii), it is agreed that, so long as not legally prohibited, the Manager will (x) consider, and if advisable seek, at the Company’s sole expense, an appropriate protective order or confidentiality agreement, (y) notify the Board and the Executive Committee of such disclosure, and (z) in the absence of an appropriate protective order or confidentiality agreement, disclose only that portion of such information that is responsive to such request or demand.

Section 6. Compensation.

(a) For the services rendered under this Agreement, the Company shall pay the Management Fee to the Manager. The Manager will not receive any Management Fees for the period prior to the Effective Date.(b) The parties acknowledge that the Management Fee is intended in part to compensate the Manager for the costs and expenses (other than reimbursable costs and expenses) the Manager will incur hereunder, as well as certain expenses not otherwise reimbursable under Section 7 below, in order for the Manager to provide the Company the management services and certain general administrative services rendered under this Agreement. A management fee paid by the Manager under a sub-management agreement (if any) shall not constitute an expense reimbursable by the Company under this Agreement or otherwise unless otherwise approved by the Board.

(c) The Management Fee payable in any monthly period shall be reduced by an amount equal to any Other Fees allocable to Investor Shares incurred by the Company, a Subsidiary or a prospective portfolio company during the immediately preceding monthly period, as reduced by any Broken Deal Expenses previously incurred (but only to the extent such Broken Deal Expenses have not already been netted against Other Fees or reimbursed by third parties or the Company). To the extent that the amount of Broken Deal Expenses allocable to Investor Shares incurred during a period exceeds the amount of Other Fees allocable to Investor Shares received during such period, the Manager may, in its sole discretion, apply such excess amount of Broken

17

Deal Expenses against Other Fees (as described in the preceding sentence) in subsequent periods or seek direct reimbursement of such amounts from the Company as a Company Expense. In the event that the amount of fee reduction referred to in the preceding sentences exceeds the Management Fee for such monthly period, such excess shall be carried forward to reduce the Management Fee payable in following monthly periods. To the extent such excess fee reduction remains unapplied upon the Company’s final distribution of assets, the Manager or an Affiliate thereof shall retain such unapplied amount. For the avoidance of doubt, Capstone Fees, Service Costs, Loan Servicing Fees and Regulated Broker Dealer Fees do not constitute Other Fees.

(d) The Management Fee shall be payable in arrears in cash or Class F Shares of the Company, in monthly installments commencing with the month in which the Effective Date occurs. If applicable, the initial and final installments of the Management Fee shall be pro-rated based on the number of days during the initial and final month, respectively, that this Agreement is in effect. The Manager shall calculate each monthly installment of the Management Fee, and deliver such calculation to the Company, within thirty (30) days following the last day of each calendar month.

(e) The Company shall make any payments due hereunder to the Manager or, if the Manager directs, to an Affiliate of the Manager. The Manager may elect to receive all or a portion of the Management Fee in Class F Shares of the Company in lieu of cash as follows:

(i) At the beginning of each fee calculation period, the Manager will notify the Company of its election to receive any Management Fees for such payment period in cash, Class F Shares or a combination of cash and Class F Shares.

(ii) The number of Class F Shares that the Manager will receive will be equal to the quotient of (x) the sum of the cash value of Management Fees elected by the Manager for payment in Class F Shares and (y) the then-current price of the Company’s Class F Shares when such fees become due.

(f) If the Manager elects to receive any portion of its Management Fee in Class F Shares of the Company, the Manager may elect to submit those shares for repurchase pursuant to the Company’s Share Repurchase Plan or tender those Class F Shares to the Company pursuant to the Company’s Tender Offers. Class F Shares of the Company obtained by the Manager will be subject to the repurchase limits of the Share Repurchase Plan or set forth in the Company’s Tender Offer documents. Any Class F Shares received by the Manager are not subject to the Early Repurchase Fee.

(g) The parties understand that if an intermediary does not meet the $100 million Class R-I Shares, Class R-D Shares, Class R-S Shares or Class R-U Shares aggregate investment threshold specified in the definition of Management Fee, applicable Class R-I Shares, Class R-D Shares, Class R-S Shares and/or Class R-U Shares will automatically convert to Class I Shares, Class D Shares, Class S Shares or Class U Shares, respectively, in accordance with the Company’s Governing Agreements.

18

Section 7. Expenses of the Company.

(a) Subject to Section 7(b) and except as otherwise specified in the definition of Company Expenses, the Manager shall be responsible for the expenses related to any and all personnel of the Manager and its Affiliates who provide services to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (including, without limitation, each of the officers of the Company and any directors of the Company who are also directors, officers or employees of the Manager or any of its Affiliates), including, without limitation, normal overhead expenses relating to the business or operation of the Manager (including rent, office furniture, fixtures and computer equipment), salaries, bonus and other wages, payroll taxes and the cost of employee benefit plans of such personnel, and costs of insurance (other than insurance specifically required under this Agreement) with respect to such personnel (“Manager Expenses”).

(b) The Company shall pay all of its costs and expenses and shall reimburse the Manager or its Affiliates for documented costs and expenses of the Manager and its Affiliates to the extent incurred on behalf of the Company that are Company Expenses in accordance with this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Manager Expenses are not Company Expenses. The Manager, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine whether a cost or expense is a Manager Expense or Company Expense.

(c) The Manager may, at its option, elect not to seek reimbursement for certain expenses during a given monthly period, which determination shall not be deemed to construe a waiver of reimbursement for such expenses, or similar expenses, in future periods.

(d) The Manager shall prepare a written expense statement in reasonable detail documenting the costs and expenses of the Company incurred during each calendar month to be reimbursed by the Company, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver the same to the Company within five (5) days following the end of the applicable calendar month (subject to reasonable delays resulting from delays in the receipt of information). The amounts payable for such cost and expense reimbursement shall be paid by the Company; provided, that such payments may be offset by the Manager against amounts due to the Company from the Manager.

(e) The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement to the extent such expenses have previously been incurred or are incurred in connection with such expiration or termination.

Section 8. Limits of the Manager’s Responsibility; Indemnification.

(a) The Manager assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder in good faith and shall not be responsible for any action of the Board or the Executive Committee in following or declining to follow any advice or recommendations of the Manager. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Manager and its Affiliates, including but not limited to their respective directors, officers, employees, managers, trustees, control persons, partners, shareholders, and equityholders, will not be liable to the Company, any Subsidiary, the Board, the Executive Committee, the Company’s shareholders or any Subsidiary’s shareholders or partners for any acts or omissions by the Manager or its Affiliates performed in accordance with and pursuant to this Agreement, whether by or through attempted

19

piercing of the corporate veil, by or through a claim, by the enforcement of any judgment or assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable law, or otherwise, except by reason of acts or omission constituting bad faith, fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, material breach of this Agreement, material violation of applicable U.S. federal securities laws or reckless disregard of their respective duties under this Agreement. The Company shall, to the full extent lawful, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Manager, its Affiliates, and the directors, officers, employees and shareholders of the Manager and its Affiliates including but not limited to their respective directors, officers, employees, managers, trustees, control persons, partners, shareholders and equityholders (each, a “Manager Indemnified Party”), of and from any and all expenses, losses, damages, liabilities, demands, charges and claims of any nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively “Losses”) in respect of or arising from any acts or omissions of such Manager Indemnified Party performed in good faith under this Agreement and not constituting bad faith, fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, material breach of this Agreement, material violation of applicable U.S. federal securities laws or reckless disregard of duties of such Manager Indemnified Party under this Agreement; provided, that an Indemnified Party will not be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement for any losses, liabilities or damages arising out of an internal dispute solely between KKR, its Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, shareholders, members or employees. In addition, the Manager will not be liable for trade errors that may result from ordinary negligence, including, without limitation, errors in the investment decision making process and/or in the trade process.

(b) The Manager shall, to the full extent lawful, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Subsidiaries and the directors, officers, employees and shareholders of the Company and its Subsidiaries and each Person, if any, controlling the Company (each, a “Company Indemnified Party”; a Manager Indemnified Party and a Company Indemnified Party are each sometimes hereinafter referred to as an “Indemnified Party”) of and from any and all Losses in respect of or arising from (i) any acts or omissions of the Manager constituting bad faith, fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duties of the Manager under this Agreement or (ii) any claims by the Manager’s or its Affiliate’s employees relating to the terms and conditions of their employment by the Manager or its Affiliate (other than claims by employees of the Company relating to the terms and conditions of their employment by the Company).

(c) In case any such claim, suit, action, investigation or proceeding (a “Claim”) is brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnification may be sought by such Indemnified Party pursuant hereto, the Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice thereof to the indemnifying party, which notice shall include all documents and information in the possession of or under the control of such Indemnified Party reasonably necessary for the evaluation and/or defense of such Claim and shall specifically state that indemnification for such Claim is being sought under this Section; provided, however, that the failure of the Indemnified Party to so notify the indemnifying party shall not limit or affect such Indemnified Party’s rights other than pursuant to this Section unless the failure to provide such notice results in material prejudice to the indemnifying party. Upon receipt of such notice of Claim (together with such documents and information from such Indemnified Party), the indemnifying party shall, at its sole cost and expense, in good faith control and defend any such Claim (including any settlement thereof) with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, which counsel may,

20

without limiting the rights of such Indemnified Party pursuant to the next succeeding sentence of this Section, also represent the indemnifying party in such Claim. In the alternative, such Indemnified Party may elect to conduct the defense of the Claim, if (i) such Indemnified Party reasonably determines that the conduct of its defense by the indemnifying party could be materially prejudicial to its interests, (ii) the indemnifying party refuses to assume such defense (or fails to give written notice to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days of receipt of a notice of Claim that the indemnifying party assumes such defense), or (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed, in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, to defend the Claim in good faith. The indemnifying party may settle any Claim against such Indemnified Party, provided (i) such settlement is without any Losses (including equitable relief) whatsoever to such Indemnified Party, (ii) the settlement does not include or require any admission of liability or culpability by such Indemnified Party and (iii) the indemnifying party obtains an effective written release of liability for such Indemnified Party from the party to the Claim with whom such settlement is being made, which release must be reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Party, and a dismissal with prejudice with respect to all claims made by the party against such Indemnified Party in connection with such Claim. Subject to the immediately prior sentence, the applicable Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense, in connection with the defense or settlement of any Claim in accordance with the terms hereof. If such Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to this Section 8 to elect to defend such Claim by counsel of its own choosing and so elects, then the indemnifying party shall be responsible for any good faith settlement of such Claim entered into by such Indemnified Party. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no Indemnified Party may pay or settle any Claim and seek reimbursement therefor under this Section.

(d) Any Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification hereunder shall first seek recovery from any other indemnity then available with respect to portfolio entities and/or any applicable insurance policies by which such Indemnified Party is indemnified or covered prior to seeking recovery hereunder and shall obtain the written consent of the Company or Manager (as applicable) prior to entering into any compromise or settlement which would result in an obligation of the Company or Manager (as applicable) to indemnify such Indemnified Party. If such Indemnified Party shall actually recover any amounts under any applicable insurance policies or other indemnity then available, it shall offset the net proceeds so received against any amounts owed by the Company or Manager (as applicable) by reason of the indemnity provided hereunder or, if all such amounts shall have been paid by the Company or Manager (as applicable) in full prior to the actual receipt of such net insurance proceeds, it shall pay over such proceeds (up to the amount of indemnification paid by the Company or Manager (as applicable) to such Indemnified Party) to the Company or Manager (as applicable). If the amounts in respect of which indemnification is sought arise out of the conduct of the business and affairs of the Company or Manager and also of any other Person or entity for which the Indemnified Party hereunder was then acting in a similar capacity, the amount of the indemnification to be provided by the Company or Manager (as applicable) may be limited to the Company’s or Manager’s (as applicable) allocable share thereof if so determined by the Company or Manager (as applicable) in good faith. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8 and for greater certainty it is understood and/or agreed that, to the extent that an Indemnified Party is also entitled to be indemnified by one or more portfolio entities, it is intended that (i) such portfolio entities shall be the indemnitors of first resort, (ii) the Company’s or Manager’s (as applicable) obligation, if any, to indemnify any Indemnified Party shall be reduced by any amount that such Indemnified Party shall collect as

21

indemnification from such entity and from any then available insurance policies, which the Indemnified Party shall have an obligation to seek payment from prior to seeking payment from the Company or Manager in respect of such Claims, and (iii) if the Company or Manager pays or causes to be paid any amounts that should have been paid by such portfolio entity or under such insurance policies, then (x) the Company or Manager (as applicable) shall be fully subrogated to all rights of the relevant Indemnified Party with respect to such payment, and (y) each relevant Indemnified Party shall assign to the Company or Manager (as applicable) all of the Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification from or with respect to such entity’s indemnification.

(e) The provisions of this Section 8 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

Section 9. No Joint Venture. The Company and the Manager are not partners or joint venturers with each other and nothing herein shall be construed to make them such partners or joint venturers or impose any liability as such on either of them.

Upon a Termination Without Cause, the Company shall pay the Manager the Termination Fee before or on the last day of the term of this Agreement (the “Effective Termination Date”).

(c) The Manager may deliver written notice to the Company informing it of the Manager’s intention to terminate this Agreement upon no less than one hundred eighty (180) days’ notice, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate effective on the latter of (i) 180 days from the date such notice is sent or (ii) such latter date as the Manager may determine. The Company is not required to pay to the Manager the Termination Fee if the Manager terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10(c).

(d) Except as set forth in this Section 10, a Termination Without Cause of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without any further liability or obligation of either party to the other, except as provided in Section 3(b), Section 5, Section 7, Section 8, Section 10(e), Section 13(b) and Section 14 of this Agreement.

(e) If the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10, the Company shall forfeit any controlling interest in any joint venture.

(f) If the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10, the Company shall, before the Effective Termination Date, cause the name of the Company to be changed to omit reference to “KKR,” and the Company, any successor manager or any other Person shall make no further use of “KKR” or any similar name or any derivations thereof in relation to the activities of the Company.

22

(g) The Manager shall cooperate, at the Company’s expense, with the Company in executing an orderly transition of the management of the Company’s consolidated assets to a new manager.

Section 11. Assignments.

(a) Assignments by the Manager. This Agreement may not be assigned by the Manager without the consent of the Company, which consent shall be approved by a majority of the Company’s Independent Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Manager may, at any time without the approval of the Company and without the approval of the Company’s Independent Directors, (i) assign this Agreement to one or more Affiliates of the Manager and (ii) delegate to one or more of its Affiliates, including sub-managers where applicable, the performance of any of its responsibilities hereunder so long as it remains liable for any such Affiliate’s performance, in each case so long as such assignment or delegation does not require the Company’s consent under the Investment Advisers Act (but if such consent is required, the Company shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent). Any such permitted assignment shall bind the assignee under this Agreement in the same manner as the Manager is bound, and the Manager shall be liable to the Company for all acts or omissions of the assignee under any such assignment. In addition, the assignee shall execute and deliver to the Company a counterpart of this Agreement naming such assignee as the Manager. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude any pledge, hypothecation or other transfer of any amounts payable to the Manager under this Agreement.

Exhibit 10.2

DEALER-MANAGER AGREEMENT

THIS DEALER-MANAGER AGREEMENT (this “Agreement’) is made as of this 27th day of July, 2023, by and between KKR Private Equity Conglomerate LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and KKR Capital Markets LLC (the “Dealer-Manager”), a Delaware limited liability company.

WHEREAS, the Company is conducting a private placement offering in accordance with Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), of Class S Shares, Class D Shares, Class U Shares, Class I Shares, Class R-S Shares, Class R-D Shares, Class R-U Shares and Class R-I Shares (“Shares”) through a private placement memorandum (the “Private Placement Memorandum”);

WHEREAS, the Company has filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”);

WHEREAS, the Dealer-Manager is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC under the 1934 Act, and is a member of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”); and

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to retain the Dealer-Manager to serve as dealer-manager of each class of the Shares and for such additional classes of Shares that the Company may issue in the future, on the terms and conditions set forth below;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter contained and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1 APPOINTMENT

1.1 Dealer-Manager. The Company hereby appoints Dealer-Manager as its dealer-manager of Shares and to provide such other services in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement. Dealer-Manager accepts such appointment and agrees to furnish certain related services as set forth in this Agreement.

1.2 Appointment not Exclusive. Notwithstanding Dealer-Manager’s appointment as dealer-manager of Shares, the Company reserves the right to make sales of Shares without sales charges consistent with the terms of the Private Placement Memorandum, including direct sales of Shares, and to engage in other legally authorized transactions in Shares. Such other transactions may include, without limitation, transactions between the Company or any class and its shareholders only; transactions involving the reorganization of the Company; and transactions involving the merger or combination of the Company with another corporation or trust.

SECTION 2 SOLICITATION OF SALES AND OTHER SERVICES

2.1 Solicitation of Sales. The Company grants to Dealer-Manager the right to sell its Shares authorized for issue, at the net asset value per Share, plus any applicable sales charges, in accordance with the Private Placement Memorandum, as agent and on behalf of the Company, during the term of this Agreement and subject to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the laws governing the sale of securities in the various states (“Blue Sky Laws”). The Company may terminate, suspend or withdraw the offering of Shares whenever, in its sole discretion, it deems such action to be desirable. The Dealer-Manager agrees that no offer or sale of Shares will be made in any state or jurisdiction, or to any prospective investor located in any state or jurisdiction, where Shares have not been registered or qualified for offer and sale under applicable state securities laws unless Shares are exempt from the registration or qualification requirements of such laws. Investments will be sold (i) in the United States only to U.S. persons who are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Regulation D under the 1933 Act and (ii) outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the 1933 Act and pursuant to the laws, rules and regulations applicable to the offer and sale of Shares in the applicable non-U.S. jurisdiction. The Dealer-Manager agrees to provide a current Private Placement Memorandum, including any written supplements, to prospective shareholders. The Dealer-Manager may prepare, print and distribute such other sales literature and advertising materials in connection with the offering of Shares as it deems appropriate. Without limiting the foregoing, the Dealer-Manager shall perform or supervise the performance by others of the services set forth herein.

2.2 Dealer-Manager will have the right, as agent, to sell Shares to broker-dealers that are members of FINRA and who have entered into selling agreements with Dealer-Manager; or through other financial intermediaries, in each case against orders therefore. In consideration of these rights granted to the Dealer-Manager, the Dealer-Manager agrees to use all commercially reasonable efforts in connection with the sale of Shares; provided, however, that the Dealer-Manager will not be prevented from entering into like arrangements (including arrangements involving the payment of underwriting commissions) with other issuers. The provisions of this paragraph do not obligate the Dealer-Manager to register as a broker or dealer under the Blue Sky Laws of any jurisdiction or laws of any foreign jurisdiction in which it is not now registered or to maintain its registration in any jurisdiction in which it is now registered or obligate the Dealer-Manager to sell any particular number of Shares. The Dealer-Manager will not direct remuneration from commissions paid by the Company for portfolio securities transactions to a broker or dealer for promoting or selling Shares. The Company reserves the right to refuse at any time or times to sell any of its Shares for any reason deemed adequate by it. All orders through the Dealer-Manager will be subject to acceptance and confirmation by the Company. Throughout the term of this Agreement, the Dealer-Manager shall maintain such licenses and registrations as are necessary to permit it and its representatives and agents to provide the services hereunder.

2.3 Other Services. Without limiting the foregoing, the Dealer-Manager will perform or supervise the performance by others of the additional services set forth herein, including the following personal investor services and account maintenance services:

(a) providing administrative, operational and infrastructural support for the selling of Shares and settlement of transactions with shareholders, as necessary;

(b) handling inquiries regarding the Company from shareholders in the Company, including but not limited to, questions concerning such shareholders’ investments in the Company, including repurchase offers, reports and tax information provided by the Company;

(c) assisting in the enhancement of relations and communications between shareholders and the Company;

(d) assisting in the establishment and maintenance of shareholders’ accounts with the Company, including notifying the Company or its agents of any changes in account information;

(e) assisting in receiving and forwarding purchase and repurchase requests and payments to and from such shareholders;

(f) assisting the Company or its agent (including the Company’s transfer agent) with the process of receiving and forwarding purchase and repurchase requests and payments to and from shareholders;

(g) providing such other similar services as the Company may reasonably request to the extent Dealer-Manager is permitted to do so under applicable statutes, rules and regulations; and

(h) assisting, as requested, in the repurchase of Shares owned by shareholders.

(f) it will offer Shares, and in its agreements with Intermediaries (as defined below) will require that the Intermediaries offer Shares, only to those persons who meet the suitability standards set forth in the Private Placement Memorandum or in any suitability letter or memorandum sent by the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, only from investors each of which, together with any other investor for which such investor is acting as a trustee or other fiduciary, the Dealer-Manager or Intermediary making such offering of Shares, shall reasonably believe (a) is an “accredited investor” with respect to the Shares within the meaning of Regulation D under the 1933 Act; or (b) is not a United States person within the meaning of Rule 902 under the 1933 Act) and will only make offers to persons in the jurisdictions in which it is advised in writing that the Shares are qualified for sale or that such qualification is not required. Notwithstanding the qualification of the Shares for sale in any respective jurisdiction (or the exemption therefrom), the Dealer-Manager represents, warrants and covenants that it will not offer Shares and will not permit any of its registered representatives to offer Shares in any jurisdiction unless both the Dealer-Manager and such registered representative are duly licensed to transact securities business in such jurisdiction.

(g) neither it, nor any person associated with the Dealer-Manager shall offer or sell (nor will the Dealer-Manager in its agreements with Intermediaries (defined below) permit the Intermediaries to offer or sell) Shares in any jurisdiction except to investors who satisfy the investor suitability standards and minimum investment requirements under the most restrictive of the following: (a) applicable provisions described in the Private Placement Memorandum, including status as an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the 1933 Act, minimum income and net worth standards; (b) applicable laws of the jurisdiction of which such

4

investor is a resident; or (c) applicable FINRA Rules. The Dealer-Manager agrees to ensure that, in recommending the purchase, sale or exchange of Shares to an investor, the Dealer-Manager, or a person associated with the Dealer-Manager, shall have reasonable grounds to believe, on the basis of information obtained from the investor (and thereafter maintained in the manner and for the period required by the SEC, any state securities commission, any applicable non-U.S. jurisdiction, FINRA or the Company) concerning his or her age, investment objectives, other investments, financial situation and needs and any other information known to the Dealer-Manager, or person associated with the Dealer-Manager, that (i) the investor can reasonably benefit from an investment in the Shares based on the investor’s overall investment objectives and portfolio structure, (ii) the investor is able to bear the economic risk of the investment based on the investor’s overall financial situation and (iii) the investor has an apparent understanding of (A) the fundamental risks of the investment, (B) the risk that the investor may lose his or her entire investment in the Shares, (C) the lack of liquidity of the Shares, (D) the background and qualifications of the Manager or the persons responsible for directing and managing the Company and (E) the tax consequences of an investment in the Shares.

The Dealer-Manager further represents, warrants and covenants that the Dealer-Manager, or a person associated with the Dealer-Manager, will make every reasonable effort to determine the suitability and appropriateness of an investment in Shares of each proposed investor by reviewing documents and records disclosing the basis upon which the determination as to suitability was reached as to each purchaser of Shares pursuant to a subscription solicited by the Dealer-Manager, whether such documents and records relate to accounts which have been closed, accounts which are currently maintained or accounts hereafter established. The Dealer-Manager agrees to retain its records in compliance with applicable law and make available a record of the information obtained to determine that an investor meets the suitability standards imposed on the offer or sale of Shares at the time of the initial purchase of Shares to (i) the Company and (ii) representatives of the SEC, FINRA and applicable state or non-U.S. securities administrators upon the Dealer-Manager’s receipt of an appropriate document subpoena or other appropriate request for documents from any such agency for a period of at least six years following the termination of this Agreement. In addition, at the Company’s reasonable written request, which shall be no later than the six year anniversary of the date of termination of this Agreement, and at the Company’s sole expense, the Dealer-Manager agrees to retain such records for a reasonable period of time beyond the six year anniversary of the date of termination of this Agreement. The Dealer-Manager shall not purchase any Shares for a discretionary account without obtaining the prior written approval of the Dealer-Manager’s customer and his or her signature on a subscription agreement. In selling Shares, the Dealer-Manager will comply, and in its agreements with Intermediaries, the Dealer-Manager will require that the Intermediaries comply, with the provisions of the FINRA Rules, Regulation Best Interest under the 1934 Act, as well as all other applicable rules and regulations relating to suitability of investors;

(h) neither the Dealer-Manager nor any of its directors, executive officers, general partners, managing members or other officers participating in the offering, nor any of the directors, executive officers or other officers participating in the offering of any such general partner or managing member, nor any other officers, employees or associated persons of the Dealer-Manager or any such general partner or managing member that have been or will be paid (directly or indirectly) remuneration for solicitation of purchasers in connection with the offer and sale of Shares (each, a “Dealer-Manager Covered Person” and, together, “Dealer-Manager Covered Persons”), is subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications (“Disqualification Events”) set forth in Rule 506(d) of Regulation D under the Securities Act applicable to the Dealer-Manager except for a Disqualification Event contemplated by Rule 506(d)(2) of the Securities Act, a description of which has been furnished in writing to the Company prior to the date hereof. The “Bad Actor” disqualifications include, among other things: (1) criminal convictions and court injunctions and restraining orders issued in connection with the purchase or sale of a security or false filings with the SEC; (2) final orders from the Commodities Futures Trading Commission, federal banking agencies and certain other regulators that bar a person from associating with a regulated entity or engaging in the business of securities, insurance or banking or that are based on certain fraudulent conduct; (3) SEC disciplinary orders relating to investment advisers, brokers, dealers and their associated persons; (4) SEC cease-and-desist orders relating to violations of certain anti-fraud provisions and registration requirements of the federal securities laws; (5) suspensions or expulsions from membership in a self-regulatory organization (“SRO”) or from association with an SRO member; and (6) U.S. Postal Service false representation orders. To the extent permitted by applicable law and without disclosing any non-public personal information regarding any Dealer-Manager Covered Person, the Dealer-Manager will promptly notify the Company if it becomes aware of a Dealer-Manager Covered Person who is or becomes the subject of a Disqualifying Event or determines that the Company’s exemption under Rule 506 is no longer available as a result of any Disqualifying Event.

5

(i) in its agreements with Intermediaries (defined below), the Dealer-Manager will require the Intermediaries to represent that:

(i) it has exercised reasonable care, in accordance with section (e) of Rule 506, in making a factual inquiry into whether any Disqualifying Event exists with respect to the Intermediary or any of its Covered Persons;

(ii) it shall make periodic factual inquiry as to the occurrence or existence of any Disqualifying Events with respect to itself and its Covered Persons, and shall conduct such factual inquiry with reasonable care in accordance with subsection (d)(2)(iv) of Rule 506;

(iii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, it will promptly notify the Company if it is or becomes subject to a Disqualifying Event or if it becomes aware that any of its Covered Persons is or becomes the subject of a Disqualifying Event; and

(iv) if a Disqualifying Event occurs with respect to any of its Covered Persons, the Company shall have the right to terminate the Selling Agent Agreement (defined below) with effect from the date of the occurrence of the Disqualifying Event.

SECTION 4 NO REGISTRATION OF SHARES

The Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act, the securities laws of any other State or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, but will be offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and any other applicable laws pursuant to the Private Placement Memorandum. The Shares are being offered and sold (i) in the United States under the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder and other exemptions of similar import in the laws of the states and jurisdictions where the Offering will be made, to U.S. persons who are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Regulation D under the 1933 Act, and (ii) outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the 1933 Act. Neither the Company nor the Dealer-Manager shall take any action that (i) causes the offering of the Shares to lose any exemption from registration with the SEC provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act and/or any regulations promulgated thereunder or (ii) causes the offering of Shares to lose its exemption from registration provided by Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the 1933 Act. The Dealer-Manager shall exercise reasonable diligence to (and shall require Intermediaries to) avoid taking any action that would cause the Company to be an “investment company” within the meaning of the 1940 Act and/or any regulations promulgated thereunder.

SECTION 5 AGREEMENTS WITH FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES

The Dealer-Manager is authorized to enter into written agreements (“Selling Agent Agreements”) with banks, broker/dealers, insurance companies and other financial institutions (collectively, “Intermediaries”), on terms and conditions consistent with this Agreement and all applicable laws, regulations and exemptive relief, and to fix therein the portion of the sales charge, if any, that may be allocated to the Intermediaries on such terms and conditions as the Dealer-Manager will deem necessary or appropriate. The Selling Agent Agreements shall be on the general forms that are approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. The Dealer-Manager also may enter into other forms of agreements relating to selling agent activities and support as it deems appropriate, provided that the Dealer-Manager determines that the Company’s responsibility or liability to any person under, or on account of any acts or statements of any such Intermediary under, any such agreement does not exceed its responsibility or liability under the general form(s) of Selling Agent Agreement approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, and provided further that the Dealer-Manager determines that the overall terms of any such agreement are not materially less advantageous to the Company than the overall terms of the general form(s) of Selling Agent Agreement approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. Any Shares sold to Intermediaries for resale will be resold by such intermediaries only at

6

the price set forth in the applicable Private Placement Memorandum or as otherwise permissible under the federal and state securities laws. With respect to Intermediaries who are acting as brokers or dealers within the United States, the Dealer-Manager will offer and sell Shares, as agent for the Company, only to such financial intermediaries who are members in good standing of FINRA. The Dealer-Manager agrees, and each Intermediary shall have agreed, to comply and shall comply with any applicable requirements with respect to its and each Intermediary’s participation in any resales or transfers of the Shares. In addition, the Dealer-Manager agrees, and each Intermediary shall have agreed, that should it or they assist with the resale or transfer of the Shares, it and each Intermediary will fully comply with all applicable FINRA or SEC rules or any other applicable federal or state laws, including Regulation D under the 1933 Act. The Company acknowledges that Dealer-Manager may act as the Company’s agent for transmitting, or arranging for transmission of, distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees to be paid to Intermediaries in accordance with arrangements between the Company and such Intermediaries. During the offering, offers and sales of Shares pursuant to the terms of any Selling Agent Agreements that are from “benefit plan investors” (within the meaning of Section 3(12) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), or other investors who are or whose assets are subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code must be properly and clearly identified to the Company.

SECTION 8 INDEMNIFICATION; CONTRIBUTION; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

8.1 Indemnification of Dealer-Manager. The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Dealer-Manager, each of its directors, officers, employees and each person, if any, who controls, is controlled by or is under common control with, the Dealer-Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Dealer-Manager Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, whatsoever (including any investigation, legal or other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) to which the Dealer-Manager Indemnified Parties may become subject, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Private Placement Memorandum, or any marketing literature or materials distributed on behalf of the Company with respect to the securities covered by the Private Placement Memorandum (the “Covered Documents”) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Dealer-Manager for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Dealer-Manager in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Covered Documents about the Dealer-Manager in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Dealer-Manager expressly for use therein. In no case is the indemnity by the Company in favor of the Dealer-Manager or any other person to be deemed to protect the Dealer-Manager or any other person against any liability to the Company or its shareholders to which the Dealer-Manager or such person otherwise would be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence, in the performance of its duties, or by reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

8.2 Indemnification of the Company. Dealer-Manager agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, officers, employees and each person, if any, who controls, is controlled by or is under common control with, the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, whatsoever (including any investigation, legal or other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) to which the Company Indemnified Parties may become subject, to the extent, but only to the extent, that an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in a Covered Document, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Dealer-Manager.

8.3 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) If any action or claim shall be brought against any Dealer-Manager Indemnified Party or Company Indemnified Party (any such party, an “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the other party hereto, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing, and the indemnifying party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel and payment of all fees and expenses; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent such indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such failure.

(b) Any Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (ii) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel, or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded party) included such Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or which may also result in a conflict of interest (in which case if such Indemnified Party notifies the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party), it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys for all such Indemnified Parties.

8

(c) No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party.

(d) The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent, but if such action is settled with the written consent of the indemnifying party, or if there shall be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action and the time for filing all appeals has expired, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(e) The obligations of the indemnifying party under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability that the indemnifying party may otherwise have.

8.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is insufficient or unavailable to any Indemnified Party under this Section 8 in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Dealer-Manager on the other from the offering of the Shares. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the Indemnified Party failed to give the notice required under Section 8.3(a), above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Dealer-Manager on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Dealer-Manager on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the amount of gross proceeds received by the Company from the offering of the Shares under this Agreement (expressed in dollars) bears to the net profits received by the Dealer-Manager under this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Dealer-Manager on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Dealer-Manager agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 8.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

8.5 Consequential Damages. In no event and under no circumstances will either party to this Agreement be liable to anyone, including, without limitation, the other party, for consequential damages for any act or failure to act under any provision of this Agreement.

8.6 Limitation of Liability. The Company is a limited liability company organized under Delaware law and under a Certificate of Formation, which is on file at the office of the Secretary of State of Delaware, and a Limited Liability Company Agreement, each of which to which reference is hereby made. The obligations of the Company entered into in the name of the Company or on behalf thereof by any of the Directors, officers, employees or agents are made not individually, but in such capacities, and are not binding upon any of the Directors, officers, employees, agents or shareholders of the Company personally, but bind only the assets of the Company, and all persons dealing with the Company must look solely to the assets of the Company for the enforcement of any claims against the Company.

10.4 Dispute Resolution.

The party providing such notice will refrain from instituting said legal proceedings for a period of thirty (30) days following the date of provision of such notice. During such period, the parties will attempt in good faith to amicably resolve their dispute by negotiation among their executive officers.

10.5 Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior agreement, draft or agreement or proposal with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended only if such amendment is approved by the vote of a majority of the Directors of the Company.

10.6 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any conflict of laws or choice of laws rules or principles thereof.

10.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which will constitute one and the same instrument. Each such counterpart will be deemed an original, and it will not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. This Agreement will be deemed executed by both parties when any one or more counterparts hereof or thereof, individually or taken together, bears the original, scanned or facsimile signatures of each of the parties.

10

10.8 Force Majeure. No breach of any obligation of a party to this Agreement (other than obligations to pay amounts owed) will constitute an event of default or breach to the extent it arises out of a cause, existing or future, that is beyond the control and without negligence of the party otherwise chargeable with breach or default, including without limitation: work action or strike; lockout or other labor dispute; flood; war; riot; theft; act of terrorism, earthquake or natural disaster. Either party desiring to rely upon any of the foregoing as an excuse for default or breach will, when the cause arises, give to the other party prompt notice of the facts which constitute such cause; and, when the cause ceases to exist, give prompt notice thereof to the other party.

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is determined to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability in such jurisdiction, without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction declares any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court making such determination will have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace the provision with a provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the original intention of the parties, and this Agreement will be enforceable as so modified.
