Dear Shareholder:

 

This letter serves to inform you of important dates relating to a repurchase offer by KKR FS Income Trust (the “Company”). If you are not interested in tendering your common shares of beneficial interest in the Company (“Shares”) for repurchase at this time, please disregard this notice and take no action.

 

Please note that the sale of Shares that have been issued after April 1, 2025 will be subject to an “early repurchase deduction” (except in the case of death, divorce or qualifying disability of a shareholder and certain other limited exceptions) that will reduce your proceeds by 2% of the aggregate NAV of the Shares repurchased. Shares that are issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan and tendered will not be subject to the early repurchase deduction. In addition, the sale of Shares may also be subject to income and transfer taxes.

 

The tender offer period will begin on March 2, 2026 and end at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on March 30, 2026. The purpose of the tender offer is to provide liquidity to shareholders of the Company. Shares may be presented to the Company for repurchase only by tendering them during the tender offer period.

 

If you do not wish to sell your Shares for any reason, simply disregard this notice. No action is required if you do not wish to sell any portion of your Shares at this time.
