On September 8, 2025, KREF Holdings X LLC (“KREF X”), a wholly owned subsidiary of KKR Real Estate Finance Trust Inc. (the “Company”), and certain specified subsidiaries of the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated as of March 5, 2025, among KREF X, as borrower, KKR Real Estate Finance Holdings L.P. (“Opco”), certain specified subsidiaries of the Company, Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Goldman Sachs”), as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Credit Agreement” and as amended by the Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”).

The Credit Agreement was amended by the Amendment to, among other things, (i) incur 2025 Incremental Term Loans (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) in the aggregate principal amount of $101,375,000, increasing the total amount of term loans outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement to $650,000,000, (ii) reduce the rate at which the term loans bear interest by 0.75% to Term SOFR plus 2.50% and (iii) reset the 101% soft call for six months. The original issue price of newly funded term loans including the 2025 Incremental Term Loans was 99.75%.

Other material terms, provisions, and conditions of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged.

Certain lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement and/or their affiliates may have other business relationships with the Company involving the provision of financial and banking-related services, including cash management, loans, letters of credit and bank guarantee facilities, investment banking and trust services.
