Kayne Anderson MLP Investment Company (the “Company”) (NYSE: KYN)
announced today that it has entered into a new $80 million unsecured
revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders. JPMorgan Chase
Bank, N.A. was lead arranger of the facility and Bank of America N.A.,
UBS Investment Bank and Citibank, N.A. participated in the syndication.
The facility has a 364-day commitment terminating on June 25, 2010.
Outstanding loan balances will accrue interest daily at a rate equal to
the one-month LIBOR plus 2.25% based on current asset coverage ratios.
The interest rate may vary between LIBOR plus 2.25% and LIBOR plus 3.50%
depending on asset coverage ratios. The Company will pay a fee equal to
a rate of 0.50% on any unused amounts of the credit facility. The
Company currently has no borrowings under the facility. A copy of the
new credit agreement is available on the Company’s website at www.kaynefunds.com/Kyn_othermaterialdocuments.htm.
“We are very pleased with the support of our lenders and believe the new

twelve months,” said Kevin McCarthy, CEO and President.
