New York, July 8 – KKR Financial Advisors II LLC sold $413 million of notes due July 2027 in the KKR CLO 12 Ltd./KKR CLO 12 LLC collateralized loan obligation deal, a market source said.

The CLO priced $206 million of class A-1A senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 140 basis points; $50 million of class A-1L senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 140 bps; up to $50 million of class A01B senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 140 bps; $45 million of class B senior secured floating-rate notes at Libor plus 220 bps; $20 million of class C senior secured deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 290 bps; $28 million of class D senior secured deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 380 bps; $19 million of class E senior secured deferrable floating-rate notes at Libor plus 585 bps and $45 million of subordinated notes.

BNP Paribas was the underwriter.

KKR Financial Advisors II will manage the CLO.

The issue has a two-year non-call period and a four-year reinvestment period.

KKR Financial Advisors brought its KKR CLO 11 earlier this year and two U.S. CLO transactions in 2014.
