Item 1.01.  On February 21, 2008, Kayne Anderson Energy Development Company (the “Company”), entered into a first amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Investment Facility”), among the Company, several banks and other financial institutions as lenders, and SunTrust Bank as administrative agent for the lenders.  The Company, lenders, and administrative agent are parties to the Investment Facility dated June 4, 2007
 
The Company amended its Investment Facility to reflect its announcement on January 22, 2008 that it would no longer be treated as a Regulated Investment Company, or “RIC,” under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and that it will be taxed as a corporation for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008 and future fiscal years.  The Company indicated that it will continue to be regulated as a business development company, or “BDC,” under the Investment Company Act of 1940. 
 
The Amendment removed the Company’s requirement to maintain RIC status and modified certain other terms in accordance with the Company’s intention to be taxed as a corporation.
