Note 1. Principal Business and Organization

FS Investment Corporation, or the Company, was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on December 21, 2007 and formally commenced operations on January 2, 2009. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or RIC, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had five wholly-owned financing subsidiaries, Broad Street Funding LLC, or Broad Street, which was established on February 2, 2010, Arch Street Funding LLC, or Arch Street, which was established on March 1, 2011, Locust Street Funding LLC, or Locust Street, which was established on July 5, 2011, Race Street Funding LLC, or Race Street, which was established on July 5, 2011, and Walnut Street Funding LLC, or Walnut Street, which was established on May 16, 2012. The consolidated financial statements include both the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned financing subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In May 2012, the Company closed its continuous public offering of shares of common stock to new investors. The Company sold 247,454,171 shares (as adjusted for stock distributions) of common stock for gross proceeds of $2,605,158 in its continuous public offering. Following the closing of its continuous public offering, the Company has continued to issue shares pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan. As of October 31, 2012, the Company had sold a total of 253,354,833 shares (as adjusted for stock distributions) of common stock and raised total gross proceeds of $2,655,880, including approximately $1,000 contributed by the principals of the Company’s investment adviser in February 2008. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company sold 90,718,973 and 83,613,294 shares for gross proceeds of $958,849 and $890,497 at an average price per share of $10.57 and $10.65, respectively. The gross proceeds received during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 include reinvested stockholder distributions of $72,417 and $21,661, respectively. During the period from October 1, 2012 to October 31, 2012, the Company received gross proceeds of $8,772 from the reinvestment of stockholders distributions, for which the Company issued 886,076 shares of common stock.

The proceeds from the issuance of common stock as presented on the Company’s consolidated statements of changes in net assets and consolidated statements of cash flows are presented net of selling commissions and dealer manager fees of $83,084 and $81,266 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation : The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, the Company’s interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with its audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012. The December 31, 2011 balance sheet and schedule of investments are derived from the 2011 audited financial

statements. The Company has evaluated the impact of subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Many of the amounts have been rounded and all amounts are in thousands, except share and per share amounts.

Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the 2011 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the classifications used to prepare the 2012 financial statements. These reclassifications had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows as previously reported.

Capital Gains Incentive Fee: Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement the Company entered into with FB Income Advisor, LLC, or FB Advisor, the incentive fee on capital gains earned on liquidated investments of the Company’s portfolio during operations prior to a liquidation of the Company is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement). Such fee will equal 20.0% of the Company’s incentive fee capital gains (i.e., the Company’s realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of the applicable period, net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis), less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. On a quarterly basis, the Company accrues for the capital gains incentive fee by calculating such fee as if it were due and payable as of the end of such period.

While the investment advisory and administrative services agreement with FB Advisor neither includes nor contemplates the inclusion of unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee, pursuant to an interpretation of an American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, or AICPA, Technical Practice Aid for investment companies, commencing during the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company changed its methodology for accruing for this incentive fee to include unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee expense and related accrued capital gains incentive fee. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be payable to FB Advisor if the Company’s entire portfolio were liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though FB Advisor is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. As of December 31, 2011, there was $0 in capital gains incentive fees payable to FB Advisor. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company accrued capital gains incentive fees of $17,421 and $33,920, respectively, based on the performance of its portfolio, of which $11,449 and $27,421, respectively, were based on unrealized gains and $5,972 and $6,499, respectively, were based on realized gains. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company reversed $7,974 and $4,063 in capital gains incentive fees accrued by the Company as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, as a result of unrealized losses in the Company’s portfolio during the respective periods.

Note 3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs . This guidance represents the converged guidance of the

21

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 3. Recently Issued Accounting Standards (continued)

FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board, or collectively, the Accounting Boards, on fair value measurement. The collective efforts of the Accounting Boards reflected in this guidance have resulted in common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements, including a consistent meaning of the term “fair value” and enhanced disclosure requirements for investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. The Accounting Boards have concluded the common requirements will result in greater comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The amendments to the FASB codification in this guidance are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company has implemented this guidance and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, except for enhanced disclosures around fair value measurements.

Note 4. Related Party Transactions

The Company has entered into an investment advisory and administrative services agreement with FB Advisor. Pursuant to this agreement, FB Advisor is entitled to an annual base management fee of 2.0% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets and an incentive fee based on the Company’s performance.

The incentive fee consists of three parts. The first part, which is referred to as the subordinated incentive fee on income, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears and equals 20.0% of “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter and is subject to a hurdle rate, expressed as a rate of return on adjusted capital, as defined in the Company’s investment advisory and administrative services agreement, equal to 2.0% per quarter, or an annualized hurdle rate of 8.0%. As a result, FB Advisor will not earn this incentive fee for any quarter until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 2.0%. Once the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, FB Advisor will be entitled to a “catch-up” fee equal to the amount of the pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate, until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter equals 2.5%, or 10.0% annually, of adjusted capital. This “catch-up” feature allows FB Advisor to recoup the fees foregone as a result of the existence of the hurdle rate. The second part of the incentive fee, which is referred to as the incentive fee on capital gains during operations, is an incentive fee on capital gains earned on liquidated investments from the Company’s portfolio during operations prior to a liquidation of the Company and is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement). This fee equals 20.0% of the Company’s incentive fee capital gains, which equals the Company’s realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of the applicable period, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. The third part of the incentive fee, which is referred to as the subordinated liquidation incentive fee, equals 20.0% of the net proceeds from a liquidation of the Company in excess of adjusted capital, as calculated immediately prior to liquidation.

The Company commenced accruing fees under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement on January 2, 2009, upon the commencement of the Company’s operations. Management fees are paid on a quarterly basis in arrears. As of December 31, 2011, $9,572 in base management fees were payable to FB Advisor. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company accrued $46,570 and $18,216, respectively, in base management fees payable to FB Advisor, including $19,021 and $7,432, respectively, in base management fees accrued during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. The

22

Note 4. Related Party Transactions (continued)

Company paid $37,028 and $14,093, respectively, of these fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. As of September 30, 2012, $19,114 in base management fees were payable to FB Advisor.

The Company accrues for the capital gains incentive fee, which, if earned, is paid annually. The Company accrues the incentive fee based on net realized and unrealized gains; however, under the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, the fee payable to FB Advisor is based on realized gains and no such fee is payable with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. As of December 31, 2011, there was $0 in capital gains incentive fees payable to FB Advisor. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company accrued capital gains incentive fees of $17,421 and $33,920, respectively, based on the performance of its portfolio, of which $11,449 and $27,421, respectively, were based on unrealized gains and $5,972 and $6,499, respectively, were based on realized gains. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company reversed $7,974 and $4,063 in capital gains incentive fees accrued by the Company as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, as a result of unrealized losses in the Company’s portfolio during the respective periods.

The Company reimburses FB Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to the Company’s administration and operations. The amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (1) FB Advisor’s actual costs incurred in providing such services and (2) the amount that the Company estimates it would be required to pay alternative service providers for comparable services in the same geographic location. FB Advisor is required to allocate the cost of such services to the Company based on objective factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. The Company’s board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to the Company of obtaining similar services from third-party providers known to be available. In addition, the Company’s board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, the Company’s board of directors compares the total amount paid to FB Advisor for such services as a percentage of the Company’s net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs.

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had $154 of administrative services expense payable to FB Advisor. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company incurred administrative services expenses of $4,116 and $1,903, respectively, attributable to FB Advisor, of which $3,789 and $1,366, respectively, related to the allocation of costs of administrative personnel for services rendered to the Company by FB Advisor and the remainder related to other reimbursable expenses. The Company paid FB Advisor $2,661 and $1,419, respectively, for the services rendered under this arrangement during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had $1,609 in administrative services expense payable to FB Advisor.

The dealer manager for the Company’s continuous public offering was FS 2 Capital Partners, LLC, or FS 2 , which is one of the Company’s affiliates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, FS 2 retained $15,842 and $15,622, respectively, for selling commissions and dealer manager fees in connection with the sale of the Company’s common stock.

Under the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, when the Company’s registration statement was declared effective by the SEC and the Company was successful in raising gross proceeds in excess of $2,500, or the minimum offering requirement, from persons who were not affiliated with

Note 4. Related Party Transactions (continued)

the Company or FB Advisor, FB Advisor became entitled to receive 1.5% of gross proceeds raised in the Company’s continuous public offering until all offering costs and organization costs funded by FB Advisor or its affiliates (including Franklin Square Holdings, L.P., or Franklin Square Holdings, the Company’s sponsor and an affiliate of FB Advisor) had been recovered. On January 2, 2009, the Company satisfied the minimum offering requirement. The Company paid total reimbursements of $0 and $641 to FB Advisor and its affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The reimbursements were recorded as a reduction of capital. As of September 30, 2012, no amounts were reimbursable to FB Advisor and its affiliates under this arrangement.

FB Advisor’s senior management team is comprised of the same personnel as the senior management teams of FS Investment Advisor, LLC and FSIC II Advisor, LLC, the investment advisers to Franklin Square Holdings’ other affiliated BDCs, FS Energy and Power Fund and FS Investment Corporation II, respectively. As a result, such personnel provide investment advisory services to each of the Company, FS Energy and Power Fund and FS Investment Corporation II. While none of FB Advisor, FS Investment Advisor, LLC or FSIC II Advisor, LLC is currently making private corporate debt investments for clients other than the Company, FS Energy and Power Fund and FS Investment Corporation II, respectively, any, or all, may do so in the future. In the event that FB Advisor undertakes to provide investment advisory services to other clients in the future, it intends to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner consistent with the Company’s investment objectives and strategies, if necessary, so that the Company will not be disadvantaged in relation to any other client of FB Advisor or its management team. In addition, even in the absence of FB Advisor retaining additional clients, it is possible that some investment opportunities may be provided to FS Energy and Power Fund or FS Investment Corporation II rather than to the Company.

Beginning on February 26, 2009, Franklin Square Holdings agreed to reimburse the Company for expenses in an amount that was sufficient to ensure that, for tax purposes, the Company’s net investment income and net capital gains were equal to or greater than the cumulative distributions paid to its stockholders in each quarter. This arrangement was designed to ensure that no portion of the Company’s distributions would represent a return of capital for its stockholders. Under this arrangement, Franklin Square Holdings had no obligation to reimburse any portion of the Company’s expenses.

Pursuant to an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement, dated as of March 13, 2012, or the expense reimbursement agreement, Franklin Square Holdings has agreed to reimburse the Company for expenses in an amount that is sufficient to ensure that no portion of the Company’s distributions to stockholders will be paid from its offering proceeds or borrowings. However, because certain investments the Company may make, including preferred and common equity investments, may generate dividends and other distributions to the Company that are treated for tax purposes as a return of capital, a portion of the Company’s distributions to stockholders may also be deemed to constitute a return of capital for tax purposes to the extent that the Company may use such dividends or other distribution proceeds to fund its distributions to stockholders. Under those circumstances, Franklin Square Holdings will not reimburse the Company for the portion of such distributions to stockholders that represent a return of capital for tax purposes, as the purpose of the expense reimbursement arrangement is not to prevent tax-advantaged distributions to stockholders.

Under the expense reimbursement agreement, Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse the Company for expenses in an amount equal to the difference between the Company’s cumulative distributions paid to its stockholders in each quarter, less the sum of the Company’s net investment income for tax purposes, net capital

Note 4. Related Party Transactions (continued)

gains and dividends and other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts are not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) in each quarter.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, the Company will have a conditional obligation to reimburse Franklin Square Holdings for any amounts funded by Franklin Square Holdings under such agreement if (and only to the extent that), during any fiscal quarter occurring within three years of the date on which Franklin Square Holdings funded such amount, the sum of the Company’s net investment income for tax purposes, net capital gains and the amount of any dividends and other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies (to the extent not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) exceeds the distributions paid by the Company to stockholders. The expense reimbursement agreement does not apply to any amounts funded by Franklin Square Holdings prior to the date of such agreement.

The Company or Franklin Square Holdings may terminate the expense reimbursement agreement at any time. If the Company terminates the investment advisory and administrative services agreement with FB Advisor, the Company will be required to repay Franklin Square Holdings all reimbursements funded by Franklin Square Holdings within three years of the date of termination.

The specific amount of expenses reimbursed by Franklin Square Holdings, if any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, no such reimbursements were required from Franklin Square Holdings. Franklin Square Holdings is controlled by the Company’s chairman, president and chief executive officer, Michael C. Forman, and the Company’s vice-chairman, David J. Adelman. There can be no assurance that the expense reimbursement agreement will remain in effect or that Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse any portion of the Company’s expenses in future quarters.

Note 5. Distributions (continued)

On October 3, 2012, the Company’s board of directors declared a regular monthly cash distribution of $0.0675 per share, which was paid on October 31, 2012 to stockholders of record on October 30, 2012. On November 8, 2012, the Company’s board of directors declared a regular monthly cash distribution of $0.0675 per share, which is expected to be paid on November 30, 2012 to stockholders of record on November 29, 2012. The timing and amount of any future distributions to stockholders are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of the Company’s board of directors.

The Company has adopted an “opt in” distribution reinvestment plan for its stockholders. As a result, if the Company makes a distribution, its stockholders will receive distributions in cash unless they specifically “opt in” to the distribution reinvestment plan so as to have their cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Company may fund its cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds available to it, including offering proceeds, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, dividends or other distributions paid to it on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and expense reimbursements from Franklin Square Holdings. The Company has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions.

The following table reflects the sources of the cash distributions that the Company has paid on its common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011:

The Company’s net investment income on a tax basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $129,901 and $48,572, respectively. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had $17,711 and $16,591, respectively, of undistributed net investment income on a tax basis. The Company’s undistributed net investment income on a tax basis as of December 31, 2011 has been adjusted following the filing of the Company’s 2011 tax return in September 2012. The adjustment was due primarily to the fact that tax-basis income received by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2011 exceeded GAAP-basis

income with respect to collateralized securities held in its investment portfolio during such period. The tax notices for the collateralized securities were received by the Company subsequent to the filing of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The difference between the Company’s GAAP-basis net investment income and its tax-basis net investment income is due to the tax-basis amortization of organization costs incurred prior to the commencement of the Company’s operations, interest income earned on a tax basis due to the required accretion of discount on non-performing loans, the reversal of the required accrual for GAAP purposes of incentive fees on unrealized gains even though no such incentive fees on unrealized gains are payable by the Company, the inclusion of periodic payments due on the Company’s total return swap in tax-basis net investment income and the accretion of discount on the total return swap.

The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually as of the end of the Company’s fiscal year based upon the Company’s taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. Therefore, a determination made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of the Company’s distributions for a full year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders are reported to stockholders annually on a Form 1099-DIV.

Note 5. Distributions (continued)

The purpose of these special stock distributions was to maintain a net asset value per share that was below the then-current offering price, after deducting selling commissions and dealer manager fees, as required by the 1940 Act, subject to certain limited exceptions. The Company’s board of directors determined that its portfolio performance sufficiently warranted taking these actions.

The stock distributions increased the number of shares outstanding, thereby reducing the Company’s net asset value per share. However, because the stock distributions were issued to all stockholders as of the applicable record date in proportion to their holdings as of such date, the reduction in net asset value per share as a result of the stock distributions was offset exactly by the increase in the number of shares owned by each investor. As overall value to an investor was not reduced as a result of the special stock distributions, the Company’s board of directors determined that these issuances would not be dilutive to stockholders as of the applicable record date. As the stock distributions did not change any stockholder’s proportionate interest in the Company, they did not represent taxable distributions. Specific tax characteristics of all distributions are reported to stockholders annually on Form 1099-DIV.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax-basis were as follows:

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the gross unrealized depreciation on the Company’s investments and total return swap and loss on foreign currency were $28,007 and $48,032, respectively.

The aggregate cost of the Company’s investments for federal income tax purposes totaled $3,806,890 and $1,877,071 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

The Company does not “control” and is not an “affiliate” of any of its portfolio companies, each as defined in the 1940 Act. In general, under the 1940 Act, the Company would be presumed to “control” a portfolio company if it owned 25% or more of its voting securities and would be an “affiliate” of a portfolio company if it owned 5% or more of its voting securities.

The Company’s investment portfolio may contain loans that are in the form of lines of credit or revolving credit facilities, which require the Company to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had two such investments, both of which were revolving loan agreements, with an aggregate unfunded commitment of $13,726. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had four such investments, three of which were revolving loan agreements with an aggregate unfunded commitment of $20,302 and one of which was an unfunded bridge loan commitment with an aggregate unfunded commitment of $35,000. The Company maintains sufficient cash on hand to fund such unfunded loan commitments should the need arise.

Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Under existing accounting guidance, fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive upon selling an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction to a market participant in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. This accounting guidance emphasizes that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy as defined by current accounting guidance:

Level 1 : Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 : Inputs that are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 3 : Inputs that are unobservable for an asset or liability.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company’s investments as of September 30, 2012 consisted primarily of debt securities that are traded on a private over-the-counter market for institutional investors. Except as described below, the Company valued its investments by using independent third-party pricing services, which provided prevailing bid and ask prices that were screened for validity by the services from dealers on the date of the relevant period end. Sixteen senior secured loan investments and seven subordinated debt investments, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by an independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, call features and other relevant terms of the debt. All of the Company’s equity/other investments were valued by the same independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, contractual rights ascribed to such investments, as well as various income scenarios and multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. Two collateralized securities were valued by obtaining bid and ask prices from an independent dealer. Two senior secured loan investments and one senior secured bond investment, all of which were newly-issued and purchased near September 30, 2012, were valued at cost, as the Company’s board of directors determined that the cost of each such investment was the best indication of its fair value.

The Company’s investments as of December 31, 2011 consisted primarily of debt securities that are traded on a private over-the-counter market for institutional investors. Except as described below, the Company valued its investments by using independent third-party pricing services, which provided prevailing bid and ask prices that were screened for validity by the services from dealers on the date of the relevant period end. Eleven senior secured loan investments and three subordinated debt investments, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by an independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, call features and other relevant terms of the debt. All of the Company’s equity/other investments were valued by the same independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering various factors, such as multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. Two senior secured loans and two subordinated debt investments, all of which were newly-issued and purchased near December 31, 2011, were valued at cost, as the Company’s board of directors determined that the cost of each such investment was the best indication of its fair value. The Company valued its TRS in accordance with the agreements between Arch Street and Citibank, which collectively established the TRS and are collectively referred to herein as the TRS Agreement. Pursuant to the TRS Agreement, the value of the TRS was based on the increase or decrease in the value of the loans underlying

31

Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

the TRS, together with accrued interest income, interest expense and certain other expenses incurred under the TRS. The loans underlying the TRS were valued by Citibank. Citibank based its valuation on the indicative bid prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service. Bid prices reflect the highest price that market participants may be willing to pay. These valuations were sent to the Company for review and testing. The Company’s valuation committee and board of directors reviewed and approved the value of the TRS, as well as the value of the loans underlying the TRS, on a quarterly basis as part of their quarterly determination of net asset value. To the extent the Company’s valuation committee or board of directors had any questions or concerns regarding the valuation of the loans underlying the TRS, such valuation was discussed or challenged pursuant to the terms of the TRS. For additional information on the Company’s TRS, which was terminated on August 29, 2012, see Note 8.

The Company periodically benchmarks the bid and ask prices received from the third-party pricing services against the actual prices at which the Company purchases and sells its investments. Based on the results of the benchmark analysis and the experience of the Company’s management in purchasing and selling these investments, the Company believes that these prices are reliable indicators of fair value. However, because of the private nature of this marketplace (meaning actual transactions are not publicly reported), the Company believes that these valuation inputs are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The Company may also use other methods to determine fair value for securities for which it cannot obtain prevailing bid and ask prices through third-party pricing services or independent dealers, including the use of an independent valuation firm. The Company periodically benchmarks the valuations provided by the independent valuation firm against the actual prices at which it purchases and sells its investments. The Company’s valuation committee and board of directors reviewed and approved the valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with the Company’s valuation process.

The following is a reconciliation for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 of investments for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value:

For investments utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the discount rate, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. For investments utilizing an option valuation model valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the volatility, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Note 8. Arch Street Credit Facility

On August 29, 2012, Arch Street terminated its TRS for a portfolio of senior secured floating rate loans with Citibank and entered into a revolving credit facility, or the Arch Street credit facility, with Citibank, as administrative agent, and the financial institutions and other lenders from time to time party thereto.

The TRS was for a portfolio of senior secured floating rate loans with a maximum notional amount of $615,000. Prior to its termination, the TRS enabled the Company, through its ownership of Arch Street, to obtain the economic benefit of owning the loans subject to the TRS, without actually owning them, in return for an interest-type payment to Citibank. As such, the TRS was analogous to Arch Street borrowing funds to acquire loans and incurring interest expense to a lender.

Arch Street received from Citibank all interest and fees payable in respect of the loans underlying the TRS. Arch Street paid to Citibank interest at a rate equal to the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, plus 1.27% per annum on the full notional amount of the loans subject to the TRS. In addition, upon the termination or repayment of any loan subject to the TRS, Arch Street either received from Citibank the appreciation in the value of such loan, or paid to Citibank any depreciation in the value of such loan.

The value of the TRS was based primarily on the valuation of the underlying portfolio of loans subject to the TRS. Pursuant to the terms of the TRS, on each business day, Citibank valued each underlying loan in good faith on a mark-to-market basis by determining how much Citibank would receive on such date if it sold the loan in the open market. Citibank then reported the mark-to-market values of the underlying loans to Arch Street.

Upon the termination of the TRS, Arch Street recognized $5,510 of gains, $1,477 of which represented periodic payments due on the TRS.

On August 29, 2012, Arch Street entered into the Arch Street credit facility, which provides for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount up to $550,000 on a committed basis. The Company may contribute cash or debt securities to Arch Street from time to time, subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Arch Street credit facility, and will retain a residual interest in any assets contributed through its ownership of Arch Street or will receive fair market value for any debt securities sold to Arch Street. Arch Street may purchase additional debt securities from various sources. Arch Street has appointed the Company to manage its portfolio of debt securities pursuant to the terms of an investment management agreement. Arch Street’s obligations to the lenders under the facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Arch Street, including its portfolio of debt securities. The obligations of Arch Street under the facility are non-recourse to the Company and the Company’s exposure under the facility is limited to the value of the Company’s investment in Arch Street.

Borrowings under the Arch Street credit facility accrue interest at a rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum during the first two years of the facility and three-month LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum thereafter. Borrowings under the facility are subject to compliance with an equity coverage ratio with respect to the current value of Arch Street’s portfolio and a loan compliance test with respect to the initial acquisition of each debt security in Arch Street’s portfolio.

Beginning November 27, 2012, Arch Street will be required to pay a non-usage fee to the extent the aggregate principal amount available under the Arch Street credit facility has not been borrowed. Outstanding borrowings under the facility will be amortized beginning nine months prior to the scheduled maturity date of

Note 8. Arch Street Credit Facility (continued)

August 29, 2015. Any amounts borrowed under the facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on August 29, 2015.

In connection with the establishment of the Arch Street credit facility, Arch Street paid $549,300 for a portfolio of debt securities that were previously held by affiliates of Citibank under the TRS and the Company contributed debt securities to Arch Street having an aggregate fair market value of approximately $132,400.

As of September 30, 2012, $447,682 was outstanding under the Arch Street credit facility. The carrying amount of the amount outstanding under the facility approximates its fair value. The Company incurred costs of $4,315 in connection with obtaining the Arch Street credit facility, which the Company has recorded as deferred financing costs on its consolidated balance sheets and amortizes to interest expense over the life of the facility. As of September 30, 2012, $4,185 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate on the borrowings under the Arch Street credit facility was 2.33% per annum as of September 30, 2012. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears and commenced August 29, 2012. The Company recorded interest expense of $1,057 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, of which $130 related to the amortization of deferred financing costs. The Company paid $0 in interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The average borrowings under the Arch Street credit facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $447,682, with a weighted average interest rate of 2.33%.

In connection with the Arch Street credit facility, Arch Street has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. In addition to customary events of default included in financing transactions, the facility contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to make principal payments when due or interest payments within five business days of when due; (b) the insolvency or bankruptcy of Arch Street or the Company; (c) the failure of Arch Street to be beneficially owned and controlled by the Company; (d) the resignation or removal of the Company as Arch Street’s investment manager; and (e) GSO / Blackstone Debt Funds Management LLC, or GDFM (or any affiliate thereof or any replacement thereof approved in writing by Citibank), no longer serving as the investment sub-adviser to the Company. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders may declare the outstanding principal and interest and all other amounts owing under the facility immediately due and payable. During the continuation of an event of default, Arch Street must pay interest at a default rate.

Borrowings of Arch Street will be considered borrowings of the Company for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act applicable to BDCs.

Note 9. Share Repurchase Program

The Company intends to conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to its share repurchase program. The Company’s board of directors will consider the following factors, among others, in making its determination regarding whether to cause the Company to offer to repurchase shares of common stock and under what terms:

the effect of such repurchases on the Company’s qualification as a RIC (including the consequences of any necessary asset sales);

the liquidity of its assets (including fees and costs associated with disposing of assets);

Note 9. Share Repurchase Program (continued)

the Company’s investment plans and working capital requirements;

the relative economies of scale with respect to the Company’s size;

the Company’s history in repurchasing shares of common stock or portions thereof; and

the condition of the securities markets.

The Company currently intends to limit the number of shares of common stock to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares of common stock it can repurchase with the proceeds it receives from the sale of shares of common stock under its distribution reinvestment plan. At the discretion of the Company’s board of directors, the Company may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from liquidation of securities investments as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares of common stock. In addition, the Company will limit the number of shares of common stock to be repurchased in any calendar year to 10% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding in the prior calendar year, or 2.5% in each quarter, though the actual number of shares of common stock that the Company offers to repurchase may be less in light of the limitations noted above.

On September 6, 2012, the Company amended the terms of its share repurchase program. The amendments to the share repurchase program will be effective as of the Company’s quarterly repurchase offer for the fourth quarter of 2012, which the Company expects will occur in December 2012, and did not affect the Company’s quarterly repurchase offer for the third quarter of 2012, which was completed in October 2012. Prior to the amendment of the share repurchase program, the Company offered to repurchase shares of common stock at a price equal to 90% of the share price in effect on each date of repurchase, which was determined in the same manner that the Company determined the offering price per share of common stock for purposes of its continuous public offering. Under the amended share repurchase program, the Company will offer to purchase shares of common stock at a price equal to the price at which shares of common stock are issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan on the distribution date coinciding with the applicable share repurchase date. The repurchase price will be determined by the Company’s board of directors or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, and will be (i) not less than the net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock (as determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion) immediately prior to the repurchase date and (ii) not more than 2.5% greater than the net asset value per share as of such date.

The Company’s board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the repurchase program at any time upon 30 days’ notice. The first such tender offer commenced in March 2010, and the repurchase occurred in connection with the Company’s April 1, 2010 closing. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company repurchased 1,207,919 shares at $9.66 per share for aggregate consideration totaling $11,670. On October 1, 2012, the Company repurchased 672,064 shares at $9.90 per share for aggregate consideration totaling $6,653.

Deutsche Bank is a lender and serves as administrative agent under the Broad Street credit facility.

The Broad Street credit facility provides for borrowings in an aggregate amount up to $380,000. Pursuant to the terms of the facility, borrowings thereunder may be designated as Tranche A borrowings in an amount up to $240,000 (referred to herein as the Tranche A Commitment) or as Tranche C borrowings in an amount up to $140,000 (referred to herein as the Tranche C Commitment). The facility also provides for Tranche B borrowings in an amount up to $100,000 (referred to herein as the Tranche B Commitment), but there are currently no Tranche B Commitments outstanding.

Under the Broad Street credit facility, the Company has transferred from time to time debt securities to Broad Street as a contribution to capital and retains a residual interest in the contributed debt securities through the Company’s ownership of Broad Street. The Company may contribute additional debt securities to Broad Street from time to time and Broad Street may purchase additional debt securities from various sources. Broad Street has appointed the Company to manage its portfolio of debt securities pursuant to the terms of an investment management agreement. Broad Street’s obligations to the lenders under the facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Broad Street, including its portfolio of debt securities. The obligations of Broad Street under the facility are non-recourse to the Company and the Company’s exposure under the facility is limited to the value of the Company’s investment in Broad Street.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $380,000 and $340,000, respectively, was outstanding under the Broad Street credit facility. The carrying amount of the amount outstanding under the facility approximates its fair value. The Company incurred costs of $2,566 in connection with obtaining and amending the facility, which the Company has recorded as deferred financing costs on its consolidated balance sheets and amortizes to interest expense over the life of the facility. As of September 30, 2012, $480 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate under the Broad Street credit facility was 1.87% per annum as of September 30, 2012. Interest is paid quarterly in arrears and commenced August 20, 2010. The Company recorded interest expense of $2,115 and $2,293 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, of which $272 and $225, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred financing costs. The Company recorded interest expense of $6,545 and $6,753 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, of which $703 and $653, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred financing costs and $18 and $0, respectively, related to commitment fees on the unused portion of the credit facility.

Borrowings under the Broad Street credit facility are subject to compliance with a borrowing base, pursuant to which the amount of funds advanced to Broad Street varies depending upon the types of assets in Broad Street’s portfolio. The occurrence of certain events described as “Super-Collateralization Events” in the credit agreement that governs the facility, or a decline in the Company’s net asset value below a specified threshold, results in a

Note 12. Repurchase Transaction

On September 26, 2012, through its two wholly-owned, special-purpose, bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries, Locust Street and Race Street, the Company entered into an amendment, or the September 2012 amendment, to its conventional debt financing arrangement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., London Branch, or JPM, which was originally entered into on July 21, 2011. The September 2012 amendment, among other things: (i) increased the amount of debt financing available under the arrangement from $400,000 to $700,000; (ii) reduced the interest rate payable under the facility from three-month LIBOR plus 3.25% per annum to a fixed rate of 3.25% per annum; and (iii) extended the final repurchase date under the financing arrangement from July 15, 2015 to October 15, 2016. The Company elected to structure the financing in the manner described more fully below in order to, among other things, obtain such financing at a lower cost than would be available through alternate arrangements.

Pursuant to the financing transaction, the Company may sell from time to time loans in its portfolio having an aggregate market value of approximately $1,300,000 ($800,000 prior to the September 2012 amendment) to

Note 12. Repurchase Transaction (continued)

Locust Street, pursuant to an amended and restated asset transfer agreement the Company entered into with Locust Street, or the Locust Asset Transfer Agreement. Under the Locust Asset Transfer Agreement, as of September 30, 2012, the Company had sold loans to Locust Street for a purchase price of approximately $736,357, all of which consisted of the issuance to the Company of equity interests in Locust Street. It is expected that the aggregate amount of loans held by Locust Street when the financing is fully-ramped will be approximately $1,300,000.

The loans held by Locust Street will secure the obligations of Locust Street under Class A Floating Rate Notes, or the Class A Notes, to be issued from time to time by Locust Street to Race Street pursuant to an amended and restated indenture, dated as of September 26, 2012, with Citibank, as trustee, or the Indenture. Pursuant to the Indenture, the aggregate principal amount of Class A Notes that may be issued from time to time is $840,000 ($560,000 prior to the September 2012 amendment). Principal on the Class A Notes will be due and payable on the stated maturity date of October 15, 2023. Interest on the Class A Notes accrues at a rate of three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 2.75% per annum (which rate was three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 4.00% per annum prior to the September 2012 amendment). Race Street will purchase the Class A Notes to be issued by Locust Street from time to time at a purchase price equal to their par value.

Pursuant to the Indenture, Locust Street has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar transactions. In addition to customary events of default included in similar transactions, the Indenture contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to make principal payments on the Class A Notes at their stated maturity or redemption date or to make interest payments on the Class A Notes within five business days of when due; (b) the failure of the aggregate outstanding principal balance (subject to certain reductions) of the loans securing the Class A Notes to be at least 130% of the outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes; and (c) GDFM ceasing to be the sub-adviser to the Company’s investment adviser, FB Advisor.

Race Street, in turn, has entered into an amended repurchase transaction with JPM pursuant to the terms of an amended and restated master repurchase agreement and the related annex and amended and restated confirmation thereto, each dated as of September 26, 2012, or collectively, the JPM Facility. Pursuant to the JPM Facility, JPM has agreed to purchase from time to time Class A Notes held by Race Street for an aggregate purchase price equal to approximately 83.33% of the principal amount of Class A Notes purchased. Subject to certain conditions, the maximum principal amount of Class A Notes that may be purchased under the JPM Facility is $840,000 ($560,000 prior to the September 2012 amendment). Accordingly, the maximum amount payable at any time to Race Street under the JPM Facility will not exceed $700,000. Under the JPM Facility, Race Street will, on a quarterly basis, repurchase the Class A Notes sold to JPM under the JPM Facility and subsequently resell such Class A Notes to JPM. The final repurchase transaction must occur no later than October 15, 2016. The repurchase price paid by Race Street to JPM for each repurchase of the Class A Notes will be equal to the purchase price paid by JPM for such Class A Notes, plus interest thereon accrued at a fixed rate of 3.25% per annum. Commencing October 15, 2014, Race Street is permitted to reduce (based on certain thresholds) the aggregate principal amount of Class A Notes subject to the JPM Facility. Such reductions, and any other reductions of the principal amount of Class A Notes, including upon an event of default, will be subject to breakage fees in an amount equal to the present value of 1.25% per annum over the remaining term of the JPM Facility applied to the amount of such reduction.

If at any time during the term of the JPM Facility the market value of the loans held by Locust Street securing the Class A Notes declines by an amount greater than 27% of their initial aggregate purchase price, or

the Margin Threshold, Race Street will be required to post cash collateral with JPM in an amount at least equal to the amount by which the market value of such loans at such time is less than the Margin Threshold. In such event, in order to satisfy any such margin-posting requirements, Race Street intends to borrow funds from the Company pursuant to a revolving credit agreement, dated as of July 21, 2011 and as amended as of September 26, 2012, between Race Street, as borrower, and the Company, as lender, or the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Company may, in its sole discretion, make such loans from time to time to Race Street pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement will accrue interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus a spread of 0.75% per annum.

In connection with the increase in the amount available under the JPM Facility, the Company may sell from time to time loans in its portfolio having an aggregate market value of approximately $600,000 to Race Street pursuant to an asset transfer agreement, dated as of September 26, 2012, between the Company and Race Street, or the Race Asset Transfer Agreement. The loans purchased by Race Street from the Company will secure the obligations of Race Street under the JPM Facility. Under the Race Asset Transfer Agreement, as of September 30, 2012, the Company had sold loans to Race Street for a purchase price of approximately $515,167, all of which consisted of the issuance to the Company of equity interests in Race Street.

Pursuant to the JPM Facility, Race Street has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar transactions. In addition to customary events of default included in similar transactions, the JPM Facility contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to pay the repurchase price upon the applicable payment dates; (b) the failure to post required cash collateral with JPM as discussed above; and (c) the occurrence of an event of default under the Indenture.

In connection with the Class A Notes and the Indenture, Locust Street also entered into: (i) an amended and restated collateral management agreement with the Company, as collateral manager, dated as of September 26, 2012, or the Locust Management Agreement, pursuant to which the Company will manage the assets of Locust Street; and (ii) an amended and restated collateral administration agreement with Virtus Group, LP, or Virtus, as collateral administrator, and the Company, as collateral manager, dated as of September 26, 2012, or the Administration Agreement, pursuant to which Virtus will perform certain administrative services with respect to the assets of Locust Street. In connection with the JPM Facility, Race Street also entered into a collateral management agreement with the Company, as collateral manager, dated as of September 26, 2012, or the Race Management Agreement, pursuant to which the Company will manage the assets of Race Street.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Class A Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $626,000 and $300,000, respectively, had been purchased by Race Street from Locust Street and subsequently sold to JPM under the JPM Facility for aggregate proceeds of $521,667 and $214,286, respectively. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the fair value of investments held by Locust Street was $1,225,423 and $576,830, respectively, which included investments purchased by Locust Street with proceeds from the issuance of Class A Notes. On October 23, 2012, an additional Class A Note in the principal amount of $96,000 was purchased by Race Street from Locust Street and subsequently sold to JPM for proceeds of $80,000. The Company funded each purchase of Class A Notes by Race Street through a capital contribution to Race Street. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Race Street’s liability under the JPM Facility was $521,667 and $214,286, respectively, plus $3,227 and $1,294, respectively, of accrued interest expense. The Class A Notes issued by Locust Street and purchased by Race Street eliminate in consolidation on the Company’s financial statements.

(3) The per share data for distributions reflects the actual amount of distributions paid per share during the applicable period.

(4) The issuance of common stock on a per share basis reflects the incremental net asset value changes as a result of the issuance of shares of common stock in the Company’s continuous public offering and pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan. The issuance of common stock at an offering price, net of sales commissions and dealer manager fees, that is greater than the net asset value per share results in an increase in net asset value per share.

(5) The per share impact of the Company’s repurchases of common stock is a reduction to net asset value of less than $0.01 per share during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011.

(6) The total return for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was calculated by taking the net asset value per share as of September 30, 2012, adding the cash distributions per share which were declared during the period and dividing the total by the net asset value per share on December 31, 2011. The 2011 total return was calculated by taking the net asset value per share as of December 31, 2011, adding the cash distributions per share which were declared during the calendar year and dividing the total by the net asset value per share on December 31, 2010. The total return does not consider the effect of the sales load from the sale of the Company’s common stock. The total return includes the effect of the issuance of shares at a net offering price that is greater than net asset value per share, which causes an increase in net asset value per share.

(7) Weighted average net assets during the period are used for this calculation. Ratios and portfolio turnover are not annualized.

Overview

We were incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on December 21, 2007, and commenced operations on January 2, 2009 upon raising gross proceeds in excess of $2,500 from sales of shares of our common stock in our continuous public offering to persons who were not affiliated with us or FB Advisor. We are an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act and has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code. In May 2012, we closed our continuous public offering of shares of common stock to new investors.

Our investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. Our portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in senior secured loans, second lien secured loans and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans of private U.S. companies. We may purchase interests in loans through secondary market transactions in the “over-the-counter” market for institutional loans or directly from our target companies. In connection with our debt investments, we may on occasion receive equity interests such as warrants or options as additional consideration. We may also purchase minority interests in the form of common or preferred equity in our target companies, either in conjunction with one of our debt investments or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor. In addition, a portion of our portfolio may be comprised of corporate bonds and other debt securities.

The senior secured and second lien secured loans in which we invest generally have stated terms of three to seven years and our subordinated debt investments generally have stated terms of up to ten years, but the expected average life of such securities is generally between three and seven years. However, there is no limit on the maturity or duration of any security in our portfolio. The loans in which we invest are often rated by a nationally-recognized statistical ratings organization and generally will carry a rating below investment grade (rated lower than “Baa3” by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., or Moody’s, or lower than “BBB-” by Standard & Poor’s Corporation). However, we also invest in non-rated debt securities.

Our investment activities are managed by FB Advisor and supervised by our board of directors, a majority of whom are independent. Under our investment advisory and administrative services agreement, we have agreed to pay FB Advisor an annual base management fee based on our gross assets as well as incentive fees based on our performance. See “—Contractual Obligations” for a description of the fees to which FB Advisor is entitled.

FB Advisor has engaged GDFM to act as our investment sub-adviser. GDFM assists FB Advisor in identifying investment opportunities and makes investment recommendations for approval by FB Advisor according to asset allocation and other guidelines set by FB Advisor. GDFM, a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, is a subsidiary of GSO Capital Partners LP, or GSO. GSO is the credit platform of The Blackstone Group L.P., a leading global alternative asset manager and provider of financial advisory services. GSO is one of the world’s largest credit platforms in the alternative asset business with approximately $54.6 billion in assets under management as of September 30, 2012.

Revenues

The principal measure of our financial performance is net increase in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net investment income, net realized gain on investments, net realized gain on total return swap, net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments, net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on total return swap and net unrealized gain and loss on foreign currency. In future quarters, we do not expect our revenues to include net realized gain on total return swap or net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on total return swap as a result of the termination of the TRS on August 29, 2012. Net investment income is the difference between our income from interest, dividends, fees and other investment income and our operating expenses. Net realized gain on investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost. Net realized gain on total return swap is the net monthly settlement payments received on the TRS. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on total return swap is the net change in the fair value of the TRS. Net unrealized gain and loss on foreign currency is the net change in the value of receivables or accruals due to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

We principally generate revenues in the form of interest income on the debt investments we hold. We may also generate revenues in the form of dividends and other distributions on the equity or other securities we hold. In addition, we may generate revenues in the form of commitment, closing, origination, structuring or diligence fees, monitoring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, consulting fees and performance-based fees. Any such fees generated in connection with our investments will be recognized as earned.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of advisory fees and other expenses under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, interest expense from financing facilities and other expenses necessary for our operations. Our investment advisory fee compensates FB Advisor for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, executing, monitoring and servicing our investments. FB Advisor is responsible for compensating our investment sub-adviser.

We reimburse FB Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to our administration and operations. The amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (1) FB Advisor’s actual costs incurred in provided such services and (2) the amount that we estimate we would be required to pay alternative service providers for comparable services in the same geographic location. FB Advisor is required to allocate the cost of such services to us based on objective factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. Our board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to us of obtaining similar services from third-party providers known to be available. In addition, our board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, our board of directors compares the total amount paid to FB Advisor for such services as a percentage of our net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs. We do not reimburse FB Advisor for any services for which it receives a separate fee, or for rent, depreciation, utilities, capital equipment or other administrative items allocated to a controlling person of FB Advisor.

We bear all other expenses of our operations and transactions, including (without limitation) fees and expenses relating to:

corporate and organization expenses relating to offerings of our common stock, subject to limitations included in the investment advisory and administrative services agreement;

the cost of calculating our net asset value, including the cost of any third-party pricing or valuation services;

the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of shares of our common stock and other securities;

Beginning on February 26, 2009, Franklin Square Holdings agreed to reimburse us for expenses in an amount that was sufficient to ensure that, for tax purposes, our net investment income and net capital gains were equal to or greater than the cumulative distributions paid to our stockholders in each quarter. This arrangement was designed to ensure that no portion of our distributions would represent a return of capital for our stockholders. Under this arrangement, Franklin Square Holdings had no obligation to reimburse any portion of our expenses.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement entered into on March 13, 2012, Franklin Square Holdings has agreed to reimburse us for expenses in an amount that is sufficient to ensure that no portion of our distributions to stockholders will be paid from our offering proceeds or borrowings. However, because certain investments we may make, including preferred and common equity investments, may generate dividends and other distributions to us that are treated for tax purposes as a return of capital, a portion of our distributions to stockholders may also be deemed to constitute a return of capital for tax purposes to the extent that we may use such dividends or other distribution proceeds to fund our distributions to stockholders. Under those circumstances, Franklin Square Holdings will not reimburse us for the portion of such distributions to stockholders that represent a return of capital for tax purposes, as the purpose of the expense reimbursement arrangement is not to prevent tax-advantaged distributions to stockholders.

Under the expense reimbursement agreement, Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse us for expenses in an amount equal to the difference between our cumulative distributions paid to our stockholders in each quarter,

Table of Contents

less the sum of our net investment income for tax purposes, net capital gains and dividends and other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts are not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) in each quarter.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, we will have a conditional obligation to reimburse Franklin Square Holdings for any amounts funded by Franklin Square Holdings under such agreement if (and only to the extent that), during any fiscal quarter occurring within three years of the date on which Franklin Square Holdings funded such amount, the sum of our net investment income for tax purposes, net capital gains and the amount of any dividends and other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies (to the extent not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) exceeds the distributions paid by us to stockholders. The expense reimbursement agreement does not apply to any amounts funded by Franklin Square Holdings prior to the date of such agreement.

We or Franklin Square Holdings may terminate the expense reimbursement agreement at any time. If we terminate the investment advisory and administrative services agreement with FB Advisor, we will be required to repay Franklin Square Holdings all reimbursements funded by Franklin Square Holdings within three years of the date of termination.

The specific amount of expenses reimbursed by Franklin Square Holdings, if any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. Franklin Square Holdings is controlled by our chairman, president and chief executive officer, Michael C. Forman, and our vice-chairman, David J. Adelman. There can be no assurance that the expense reimbursement agreement will remain in effect or that Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse any portion of our expenses in future quarters.

Portfolio Investment Activity For The Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and For The Year Ended December 31, 2011

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we made investments in portfolio companies totaling $2,837,344. During the same period, we sold investments totaling $435,998 and received principal repayments of $501,140.

The portfolio companies that comprised our portfolio as of such date had an average annual EBITDA of approximately $373.3 million. As of September 30, 2012, the investments in our portfolio were purchased at a weighted average price of 95.0% of par or stated value, as applicable, the weighted average credit rating of the investments in our portfolio that were rated (constituting approximately 70.2% of our portfolio based on the fair value of our investments) was B2 based upon the Moody’s scale and our estimated gross annual portfolio yield, prior to leverage, was 10.1% based upon the purchase price of our investments.

As of December 31, 2011, our investment portfolio, with a total fair value of $1,844,358, consisted of interests in 183 portfolio companies (55% in first lien senior secured loans, 21% in second lien senior secured loans, 6% in senior secured bonds, 13% in subordinated debt, 4% in collateralized securities and 1% in equity/other).

We do not “control” and are not an “affiliate” of any of our portfolio companies, each as defined in the 1940 Act. In general, under the 1940 Act, we would be presumed to “control” a portfolio company if we owned 25% or more of its voting securities and would be an “affiliate” of a portfolio company if we owned 5% or more of its voting securities.

Our investment portfolio may contain loans that are in the form of lines of credit or revolving credit facilities, which require us to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of September 30, 2012, we had two such investments, both of which were revolving loan agreements, with an aggregate unfunded commitment of $13,726. As of December 31, 2011, we had four such investments, three of which were revolving loan agreements with an aggregate unfunded commitment of $20,302 and one of which was an unfunded bridge loan commitment with an aggregate unfunded commitment of $35,000. We maintain sufficient cash on hand to fund such unfunded loan commitments should the need arise.

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2012, approximately 29.5% of our portfolio based on fair value constituted proprietary investments. We define proprietary investments to include any investment originated or structured for us or made by us that was not generally available to the broader market. Proprietary investments may offer higher yields than broadly syndicated transactions, which are marketed and sold to many participants.

Portfolio Asset Quality

In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, FB Advisor uses an investment rating system to characterize and monitor the expected level of returns on each investment in our portfolio. FB Advisor uses an investment rating scale of 1 to 5. The following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment rating:

Investment
Rating

Summary Description

1 Investment exceeding expectations and/or capital gain expected.
2 Performing investment generally executing in accordance with the portfolio company’s business plan—full return of principal and interest expected.
3 Performing investment requiring closer monitoring.
4 Underperforming investment—some loss of interest or dividend expected, but still expecting a positive return on investment.
5 Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal.

The following table shows the distribution of our investments on the 1 to 5 investment rating scale at fair value as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

The amount of the portfolio in each grading category may vary substantially from period to period resulting primarily from changes in the composition of the portfolio as a result of new investment, repayment and exit activities. In addition, changes in the grade of investments may be made to reflect our expectation of performance and changes in investment values.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011

Revenues

We generated investment income of $84,015 and $33,295 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in the form of interest earned on senior secured loans, senior secured bonds, subordinated debt and collateralized securities in our portfolio and dividends and other distributions earned on equity/other securities. Such revenues represent $76,794 and $28,187 of cash income earned as well as $7,221 and $5,108 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Cash flows related to such non-cash revenues may not occur for a number of reporting periods or years after such revenues are recognized. The increase in investment income is due primarily to the growth of our portfolio over the last year. The level of income we receive is directly related to the balance

Table of Contents

of income-producing investments multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments. We expect the dollar amount of interest and any dividend income that we earn to level off as the size of our investment portfolio stabilizes as a result of the closing of our public offering in May 2012.

Expenses

Our total operating expenses were $49,259 and $4,986 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our operating expenses include base management fees attributed to FB Advisor of $19,021 and $7,432 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our operating expenses also include administrative services expenses attributed to FB Advisor of $1,782 and $915 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

FB Advisor is eligible to receive incentive fees based on performance. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $17,421, of which $11,449 was based on unrealized gains and $5,972 was based on realized gains. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we reversed $7,974 in capital gains incentive fees accrued by us as of June 30, 2011 as a result of the unrealized losses incurred in our portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2011. No such fees are actually payable by us with respect to unrealized gains unless and until those gains are actually realized. See “—Critical Accounting Policies—Capital Gains Incentive Fee.”

We recorded interest expense of $7,744 and $2,922 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in connection with the Arch Street credit facility, the Broad Street credit facility, the JPM Facility and the Walnut Street credit facility. Fees incurred with our fund administrator, which provides various accounting and administrative services to us, totaled $280 and $298 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We incurred fees and expenses with our stock transfer agent of $910 and $448 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Our other general and administrative expenses totaled $2,101 and $945 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and consisted of the following:

During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the ratio of our operating expenses to our average net assets was 2.04% and 0.49%, respectively. Our ratio of operating expenses to our average net assets during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 included $7,744 and $2,922, respectively, related to interest expense and $17,421 and ($7,974), respectively, related to accruals for incentive fees. Without such expenses, our ratio of operating expenses to average net assets would have been 1.00% and 1.00%, respectively. Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may increase or decrease our operating expenses in relation to our expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance and changes in benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR, among other factors.

Over the next several quarters, we expect our operating expenses related to our ongoing operations to level off as the size of our asset base stabilizes as a result of the closing of our public offering in May 2012.

Table of Contents

During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, no expense reimbursements were required from Franklin Square Holdings pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement.

Net Investment Income

Our net investment income totaled $34,756 ($0.14 per share) and $28,309 ($0.26 per share) for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The decrease in net investment income on a per share basis can be attributed primarily to the accrual of a capital gains incentive fee during the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to a reversal during the three months ended September 30, 2011 of the capital gains incentive fee that had been accrued as of June 30, 2011.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

We sold investments and received principal repayments of $178,042 and $232,008, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2012, from which we realized net gains of $10,259. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we also earned $9,729 from periodic net settlement payments on our TRS, which are reflected as realized gains on our consolidated statements of operations, and realized a net gain of $521 from settlements on foreign currency. We sold investments and received principal repayments of $29,582 and $144,409, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2011, from which we realized net gains of $2,433. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we also earned $1,895 from periodic net settlement payments on our TRS.

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments and Total Return Swap and Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Foreign Currency

For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled $69,216, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the TRS was ($2,453) due to the termination of the TRS on August 29, 2012, and the net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency totaled ($261). For the three months ended September 30, 2011, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled ($63,164), the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the TRS was ($8,887), and the net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency totaled ($72). The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our investments during the three months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily a result of a general strengthening in the credit markets during the quarter. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our investments during the three months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily driven by a general widening of credit spreads during such period resulting from, among other things, uncertainty surrounding European sovereign debt.

Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $121,767 ($0.49 per share) compared to a net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations of ($39,486) (($0.37) per share) during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011

Revenues

We generated investment income of $197,604 and $76,209 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in the form of interest earned on senior secured loans, senior secured bonds, subordinated debt and collateralized securities in our portfolio and dividends and other distributions earned on equity/other securities. Such revenues represent $182,498 and $67,248 of cash income earned as well as $15,106 and $8,961 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Cash flows related to such non-cash revenues may not occur for a number of reporting periods or years after such revenues are recognized. The increase in investment income is due primarily to the growth of our portfolio over the last year. The level of income we receive is directly related to the balance

of income-producing investments multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments. We expect the dollar amount of interest and any dividend income that we earn to level off as the size of our investment portfolio stabilizes as a result of the closing of our public offering in May 2012.

Expenses

Our total operating expenses were $111,433 and $27,577 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our operating expenses include base management fees attributed to FB Advisor of $46,570 and $18,216 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Our operating expenses also include administrative services expenses attributed to FB Advisor of $4,116 and $1,903 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

FB Advisor is eligible to receive incentive fees based on performance. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $33,920, of which $27,421 was based on unrealized gains and $6,499 was based on realized gains. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we reversed $4,063 in capital gains incentive fees accrued by us as of December 31, 2010 as a result of the unrealized losses incurred in our portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. No such fees are actually payable by us with respect to unrealized gains unless and until those gains are actually realized. See “—Critical Accounting Policies—Capital Gains Incentive Fee.”

We recorded interest expense of $18,271 and $7,382 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, in connection with the Arch Street credit facility, the Broad Street credit facility, the JPM Facility and the Walnut Street credit facility. Fees incurred with our fund administrator, which provides various accounting and administrative services to us, totaled $1,126 and $692 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We incurred fees and expenses with our stock transfer agent of $2,731 and $1,138 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Our other general and administrative expenses totaled $4,699 and $2,309 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and consisted of the following:

(1) On March 14, 2011, William Goebel was appointed as our chief financial officer. Prior to that date, we had contracted with Pine Hill Group, LLC to provide the services of Charles Jacobson as our chief financial officer. Mr. Goebel is employed by Franklin Square Holdings and will not receive any direct compensation from us in this capacity. As a result, for periods after March 31, 2011, this line item does not include compensation paid to our chief financial officer and only represents compensation paid to our chief compliance officer.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the ratio of our operating expenses to our average net assets was 5.27% and 3.75%, respectively. Our ratio of operating expenses to our average net assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 included $18,271 and $7,382, respectively, related to interest expense and $33,920 and ($4,063), respectively, related to accruals for incentive fees. Without such expenses, our ratio of operating expenses to average net assets would have been 2.81% and 3.31%, respectively.

Table of Contents

Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may increase or decrease our operating expenses in relation to our expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance and changes in benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR, among other factors. The lower ratio of operating expenses, exclusive of interest expense and incentive fees, to average net assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 can primarily be attributed to the spreading of our operating expenses over a larger asset base.

Over the next several quarters, we expect our operating expenses related to our ongoing operations to level off as the size of our asset base stabilizes as a result of the closing of our public offering in May 2012.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, no expense reimbursements were required from Franklin Square Holdings pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement.

Net Investment Income

Our net investment income totaled $86,171 ($0.39 per share) and $48,632 ($0.63 per share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The decrease in net investment income on a per share basis can be attributed primarily to the accrual of a capital gains incentive fee during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to a reversal during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of the capital gains incentive fee that had been accrued as of December 31, 2010.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

We sold investments and received principal repayments of $435,998 and $501,140, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, from which we realized net gains of $14,853. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we also earned $19,596 from periodic net settlement payments on our TRS, which are reflected as realized gains on our consolidated statements of operations, and realized a net gain of $534 from settlements on foreign currency. We sold investments and received principal repayments of $413,694 and $369,502, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from which we realized net gains of $22,456. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we also earned $1,895 from periodic net settlement payments on our TRS.

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments and Total Return Swap and Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Foreign Currency

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled $126,095, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the TRS was $1,996 and the net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency totaled $0. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled ($64,728), the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the TRS was ($7,600), and the net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency totaled $1. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily a result of a general strengthening in the credit markets during such period. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily driven by a general widening of credit spreads during the third quarter of 2011 resulting from, among other things, uncertainty surrounding European sovereign debt.

Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $249,245 ($1.13 per share) compared to a net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations of $656 ($0.01 per share) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

In May 2012, we closed our continuous public offering of shares of common stock to new investors. We sold 247,454,171 shares (as adjusted for stock distributions) of common stock for gross proceeds of $2,605,158 in our continuous public offering. Following the closing of our continuous public offering, we have continued to issue shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. As of October 31, 2012, we had sold a total of 253,354,833 shares (as adjusted for stock distributions) of common stock for total gross proceeds of $2,655,880, including approximately $1,000 contributed by the principals of our investment adviser in February 2008. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we sold 90,718,973 shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of $958,849. The gross proceeds received during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 include reinvested stockholder distributions of $72,417. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we also incurred offering costs of $3,234 in connection with the sale of our common stock, which consisted primarily of legal, due diligence and printing fees. The offering costs were offset against capital in excess of par value in our consolidated financial statements. The sales commissions and dealer manager fees related to the sale of our common stock were $83,084 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. These sales commissions and fees include $15,842 retained by the dealer manager, FS 2 , which is one of our affiliates.

We generate cash primarily from fees, interest and dividends earned from our investments as well as principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments. In May 2012, we closed our continuous public offering of shares of our common stock and, following the closing, sell shares only pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan.

Prior to investing in securities of portfolio companies, we invest the net proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan and from sales and paydowns of existing investments primarily in cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, repurchase agreements and high-quality debt instruments maturing in one year or less from the time of investment, consistent with our BDC election and our election to be taxed as a RIC.

As of September 30, 2012, we had $191,177 in cash held in custodial accounts.

To provide our stockholders with limited liquidity, we conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to our share repurchase program. The following table reflects certain information regarding the quarterly tender offers that we have conducted since December 31, 2010:

Broad Street Credit Facility

On January 28, 2011, Broad Street, Deutsche Bank, and the other lenders party thereto entered into the Broad Street credit facility, which amended and restated the revolving credit facility that Broad Street originally entered into with Deutsche Bank on March 10, 2010 and the amendments thereto. On March 23, 2012, Broad Street entered into an amendment to the Broad Street credit facility to extend the maturity date of the facility to

Table of Contents

March 23, 2013, increase the amount of the Tranche C Commitment (described below) from $100,000 to $140,000 and reduce the interest rate for all borrowings under the facility to a rate of LIBOR plus 1.50% per annum. Deutsche Bank is a lender and serves as administrative agent under the Broad Street credit facility.

The Broad Street credit facility provides for borrowings in an aggregate amount up to $380,000. Pursuant to the terms of the facility, borrowings thereunder may be designated as Tranche A borrowings in an amount up to $240,000 (referred to herein as the Tranche A Commitment) or as Tranche C borrowings in an amount up to $140,000 (referred to herein as the Tranche C Commitment). The facility also provides for Tranche B borrowings in an amount up to $100,000 (referred to herein as the Tranche B Commitment), but there are currently no Tranche B Commitments outstanding. All Tranche A Commitments and Tranche C Commitments bear interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 1.50% per annum and will mature and be due and payable on March 23, 2013.

Under the Broad Street credit facility, we have transferred from time to time debt securities to Broad Street as a contribution to capital and retain a residual interest in the contributed debt securities through our ownership of Broad Street. We may contribute additional debt securities to Broad Street from time to time and Broad Street may purchase additional debt securities from various sources. Broad Street has appointed us to manage its portfolio of debt securities pursuant to the terms of an investment management agreement. Broad Street’s obligations to the lenders under the facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Broad Street, including its portfolio of debt securities. The obligations of Broad Street under the facility are non-recourse to us and our exposure under the facility is limited to the value of our investment in Broad Street.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $380,000 and $340,000, respectively, was outstanding under the Broad Street credit facility. The carrying amount of the amount outstanding under the facility approximates its fair value. We incurred costs of $2,566 in connection with obtaining and amending the facility, which we have recorded as deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets and amortize to interest expense over the life of the facility. As of September 30, 2012, $480 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate under the Broad Street credit facility was 1.87% per annum as of September 30, 2012. Interest is paid quarterly in arrears and commenced August 20, 2010. We recorded interest expense of $2,115 and $2,293 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, of which $272 and $225, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred financing costs. We recorded interest expense of $6,545 and $6,753 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, of which $703 and $653, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred financing costs and $18 and $0, respectively, related to commitment fees on the unused portion of the credit facility. We paid $6,104 and $5,867 in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The average borrowings under the facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were $364,833 and $337,793, respectively, with a weighted average interest rate of 2.15% and 2.41%, respectively.

Borrowings under the Broad Street credit facility are subject to compliance with a borrowing base, pursuant to which the amount of funds advanced to Broad Street varies depending upon the types of assets in Broad Street’s portfolio. The occurrence of certain events described as “Super-Collateralization Events” in the credit agreement that governs the facility, or a decline in our net asset value below a specified threshold, results in a lowering of the amount of funds that will be advanced against such assets. Super-Collateralization Events include, without limitation: (i) certain key employees ceasing to be directors, principals, officers or investment managers of GDFM; (ii) the bankruptcy or insolvency of GDFM or FB Advisor; (iii) GDFM ceasing to act as our sub-adviser or FB Advisor ceasing to act as our investment adviser; (iv) our ceasing to act as Broad Street’s investment manager, becoming bankrupt or insolvent, defaulting on certain material agreements or failing to maintain a net asset value at least equal to $50,000; and (v) us, GDFM or FB Advisor committing fraud or other illicit acts in our or their investment advisory capacities.

Table of Contents

In connection with the facility, Broad Street has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. In addition to customary events of default included in financing transactions, the facility contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to make principal payments when due or interest payments within three business days of when due; (b) borrowings under the facility exceeding the applicable advance rates; (c) the purchase by Broad Street of certain ineligible assets; (d) the insolvency or bankruptcy of Broad Street or us; (e) we cease to act as investment manager of Broad Street’s assets; (f) the decline of our net asset value below $50,000; and (g) fraud or other illicit acts by us, FB Advisor or GDFM in our or their investment advisory capacities. During the continuation of an event of default, Broad Street must pay interest at a default rate.

Broad Street has agreed to pay Deutsche Bank $950 upon the termination date of the Broad Street credit facility, provided that such termination fee will not be payable if Broad Street refinances the facility with Deutsche Bank or enters into an alternate financing arrangement with or through Deutsche Bank.

Borrowings of Broad Street will be considered borrowings by us for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act applicable to BDCs.

Arch Street Credit Facility

On August 29, 2012, Arch Street terminated its TRS for a portfolio of senior secured floating rate loans with Citibank and entered into the Arch Street credit facility with Citibank, as administrative agent, and the financial institutions and other lenders from time to time party thereto.

The TRS was for a portfolio of senior secured floating rate loans with a maximum notional amount of $615,000. Prior to its termination, the TRS enabled us, through our ownership of Arch Street, to obtain the economic benefit of owning the loans subject to the TRS, without actually owning them, in return for an interest-type payment to Citibank. As such, the TRS was analogous to Arch Street borrowing funds to acquire loans and incurring interest expense to a lender.

Arch Street received from Citibank all interest and fees payable in respect of the loans underlying the TRS. Arch Street paid to Citibank interest at a rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus 1.27% per annum on the full notional amount of the loans subject to the TRS. In addition, upon the termination or repayment of any loan subject to the TRS, Arch Street either received from Citibank the appreciation in the value of such loan, or paid to Citibank any depreciation in the value of such loan.

The value of the TRS was based primarily on the valuation of the underlying portfolio of loans subject to the TRS. Pursuant to the terms of the TRS, on each business day, Citibank valued each underlying loan in good faith on a mark-to-market basis by determining how much Citibank would receive on such date if it sold the loan in the open market. Citibank then reported the mark-to-market values of the underlying loans to Arch Street.

Upon the termination of the TRS, Arch Street recognized $5,510 of gains, $1,477 of which represented periodic payments due on the TRS.

On August 29, 2012, Arch Street entered into the Arch Street credit facility, which provides for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount up to $550,000 on a committed basis. We may contribute cash or debt securities to Arch Street from time to time, subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Arch Street credit facility, and will retain a residual interest in any assets contributed through our ownership of Arch Street or will receive fair market value for any debt securities sold to Arch Street. Arch Street may purchase additional debt securities from various sources. Arch Street has appointed us to manage its portfolio of debt securities pursuant to the terms of an investment management agreement. Arch Street’s obligations to the lenders under the facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Arch Street, including its portfolio of debt securities. The obligations of Arch Street under the facility are non-recourse to us and our exposure under the facility is limited to the value of our investment in Arch Street.

59


Table of Contents

Borrowings under the Arch Street credit facility accrue interest at a rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum during the first two years of the facility and three-month LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum thereafter. Borrowings under the facility are subject to compliance with an equity coverage ratio with respect to the current value of Arch Street’s portfolio and a loan compliance test with respect to the initial acquisition of each debt security in Arch Street’s portfolio.

Beginning November 27, 2012, Arch Street will be required to pay a non-usage fee to the extent the aggregate principal amount available under the Arch Street credit facility has not been borrowed. Outstanding borrowings under the facility will be amortized beginning nine months prior to the scheduled maturity date of August 29, 2015. Any amounts borrowed under the facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on August 29, 2015.

In connection with the establishment of the Arch Street credit facility, Arch Street paid $549,300 for a portfolio of debt securities that were previously held by affiliates of Citibank under the TRS and we contributed debt securities to Arch Street having an aggregate fair market value of approximately $132,400.

As of September 30, 2012, $447,682 was outstanding under the Arch Street credit facility. The carrying amount of the amount outstanding under the facility approximates its fair value. We incurred costs of $4,315 in connection with obtaining the Arch Street credit facility, which we have recorded as deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets and amortize to interest expense over the life of the facility. As of September 30, 2012, $4,185 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate on the borrowings under the Arch Street credit facility was 2.33% per annum as of September 30, 2012. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears and commenced August 29, 2012. We recorded interest expense of $1,057 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, of which $130 related to the amortization of deferred financing costs. We paid $0 in interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The average borrowings under the Arch Street credit facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $447,682, with a weighted average interest rate of 2.33%.

In connection with the Arch Street credit facility, Arch Street has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. In addition to customary events of default included in financing transactions, the facility contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to make principal payments when due or interest payments within five business days of when due; (b) the insolvency or bankruptcy of Arch Street or us; (c) the failure of Arch Street to be beneficially owned and controlled by us; (d) the resignation or removal of us as Arch Street’s investment manager; and (e) GDFM (or any affiliate thereof or any replacement thereof approved in writing by Citibank) no longer serving as our investment sub-adviser. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders may declare the outstanding principal and interest and all other amounts owing under the facility immediately due and payable. During the continuation of an event of default, Arch Street must pay interest at a default rate.

Borrowings of Arch Street will be considered borrowings of ours for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act applicable to BDCs.

JPM Financing

On September 26, 2012, through our two wholly-owned, special-purpose, bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries, Locust Street and Race Street, we entered into an amendment to our conventional debt financing arrangement with JPM, which was originally entered into on July 21, 2011. The September 2012 amendment, among other things: (i) increased the amount of debt financing available under the arrangement from $400,000 to $700,000; (ii) reduced the interest rate payable under the facility from three-month LIBOR plus 3.25% per annum to a fixed

60


Table of Contents

rate of 3.25% per annum; and (iii) extended the final repurchase date under the financing arrangement from July 15, 2015 to October 15, 2016. We elected to structure the financing in the manner described more fully below in order to, among other things, obtain such financing at a lower cost than would be available through alternate arrangements.

Pursuant to the financing transaction, we may sell from time to time loans in our portfolio having an aggregate market value of approximately $1,300,000 ($800,000 prior to the September 2012 amendment) to Locust Street pursuant to the Locust Asset Transfer Agreement. Under the Locust Asset Transfer Agreement, as of September 30, 2012, we had sold loans to Locust Street for a purchase price of approximately $736,357, all of which consisted of the issuance to us of equity interests in Locust Street. It is expected that the aggregate amount of loans held by Locust Street when the financing is fully-ramped will be approximately $1,300,000.

The loans held by Locust Street will secure the obligations of Locust Street under the Class A Notes to be issued from time to time by Locust Street to Race Street pursuant to the Indenture. Pursuant to the Indenture, the aggregate principal amount of Class A Notes that may be issued from time to time is $840,000 ($560,000 prior to the September 2012 amendment). Principal on the Class A Notes will be due and payable on the stated maturity date of October 15, 2023. Interest on the Class A Notes accrues at a rate of three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 2.75% per annum (which rate was three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 4.00% per annum prior to the September 2012 amendment). Race Street will purchase the Class A Notes to be issued by Locust Street from time to time at a purchase price equal to their par value.

Pursuant to the Indenture, Locust Street has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar transactions. In addition to customary events of default included in similar transactions, the Indenture contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to make principal payments on the Class A Notes at their stated maturity or redemption date or to make interest payments on the Class A Notes within five business days of when due; (b) the failure of the aggregate outstanding principal balance (subject to certain reductions) of the loans securing the Class A Notes to be at least 130% of the outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes; and (c) GDFM ceasing to be the sub-adviser to our investment adviser.

Race Street, in turn, has entered into an amended repurchase transaction with JPM pursuant to the terms of the JPM Facility. Pursuant to the JPM Facility, JPM has agreed to purchase from time to time Class A Notes held by Race Street for an aggregate purchase price equal to approximately 83.33% of the principal amount of Class A Notes purchased. Subject to certain conditions, the maximum principal amount of Class A Notes that may be purchased under the JPM Facility is $840,000 ($560,000 prior to the September 2012 amendment). Accordingly, the maximum amount payable at any time to Race Street under the JPM Facility will not exceed $700,000. Under the JPM Facility, Race Street will, on a quarterly basis, repurchase the Class A Notes sold to JPM under the JPM Facility and subsequently resell such Class A Notes to JPM. The final repurchase transaction must occur no later than October 15, 2016. The repurchase price paid by Race Street to JPM for each repurchase of the Class A Notes will be equal to the purchase price paid by JPM for such Class A Notes, plus interest thereon accrued at a fixed rate of 3.25% per annum. Commencing October 15, 2014, Race Street is permitted to reduce (based on certain thresholds) the aggregate principal amount of Class A Notes subject to the JPM Facility. Such reductions, and any other reductions of the principal amount of Class A Notes, including upon an event of default, will be subject to breakage fees in an amount equal to the present value of 1.25% per annum over the remaining term of the JPM Facility applied to the amount of such reduction.

If at any time during the term of the JPM Facility the market value of the loans held by Locust Street securing the Class A Notes declines below the Margin Threshold, Race Street will be required to post cash collateral with JPM in an amount at least equal to the amount by which the market value of such loans at such time is less than the Margin Threshold. In such event, in order to satisfy any such margin-posting requirements, Race Street intends to borrow funds from us pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement. We may, in our sole

61


Table of Contents

discretion, make such loans from time to time to Race Street pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement will accrue interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus a spread of 0.75% per annum.

In connection with the increase in the amount available under the JPM Facility, we may sell from time to time loans in our portfolio having an aggregate market value of approximately $600,000 to Race Street pursuant to the Race Asset Transfer Agreement. The loans purchased by Race Street from us will secure the obligations of Race Street under the JPM Facility. Under the Race Asset Transfer Agreement, as of September 30, 2012, we had sold loans to Race Street for a purchase price of approximately $515,167, all of which consisted of the issuance to us of equity interests in Race Street.

Pursuant to the JPM Facility, Race Street has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar transactions. In addition to customary events of default included in similar transactions, the JPM Facility contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to pay the repurchase price upon the applicable payment dates; (b) the failure to post required cash collateral with JPM as discussed above; and (c) the occurrence of an event of default under the Indenture.

In connection with the Class A Notes and the Indenture, Locust Street also entered into: (i) the Locust Management Agreement, pursuant to which we will manage the assets of Locust Street; and (ii) the Administration Agreement, pursuant to which Virtus will perform certain administrative services with respect to the assets of Locust Street. In connection with the JPM Facility, Race Street also entered into the Race Management Agreement, pursuant to which we will manage the assets of Race Street.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Class A Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $626,000 and $300,000, respectively, had been purchased by Race Street from Locust Street and subsequently sold to JPM under the JPM Facility for aggregate proceeds of $521,667 and $214,286, respectively. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the fair value of investments held by Locust Street was $1,225,423 and $576,830, respectively, which included investments purchased by Locust Street with proceeds from the issuance of Class A Notes. On October 23, 2012, an additional Class A Note in the principal amount of $96,000 was purchased by Race Street from Locust Street and subsequently sold to JPM for proceeds of $80,000. We funded each purchase of Class A Notes by Race Street through a capital contribution to Race Street. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Race Street’s liability under the JPM Facility was $521,667 and $214,286, respectively, plus $3,227 and $1,294, respectively, of accrued interest expense. The Class A Notes issued by Locust Street and purchased by Race Street eliminate in consolidation on our financial statements.

We incurred costs of $425 in connection with obtaining the JPM Facility, which we have recorded as deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets and amortize to interest expense over the life of the JPM Facility. As of September 30, 2012, $300 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate on the borrowings under the JPM Facility was 3.25% per annum as of September 30, 2012. We recorded interest expense of $3,795 and $9,802, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, of which $27 and $80, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred financing costs. We paid $3,288 and $7,789, respectively, in interest expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. The average borrowings under the JPM Facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were $341,114 and $86,650, respectively, with a weighted average interest rate of 3.74% and 3.50%, respectively.

Amounts outstanding under the JPM Facility will be considered borrowings by us for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act applicable to BDCs.

Walnut Street Credit Facility

On May 17, 2012, Walnut Street and Wells Fargo entered into the Walnut Street credit facility. Wells Fargo Securities, LLC serves as the administrative agent and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is the sole lender, collateral agent, account bank and collateral custodian under the facility. The Walnut Street credit facility provides for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount up to $250,000 on a committed basis.

Under the Walnut Street credit facility, we contribute cash or debt securities to Walnut Street from time to time and retain a residual interest in any assets contributed through our ownership of Walnut Street or receive fair market value for any debt securities sold to Walnut Street. Walnut Street may purchase additional debt securities from various sources. Walnut Street has appointed us to manage its portfolio of debt securities pursuant to the terms of a collateral management agreement. Walnut Street’s obligations to Wells Fargo under the Walnut Street credit facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Walnut Street, including its portfolio of debt securities. The obligations of Walnut Street under the Walnut Street credit facility are non-recourse to us and our exposure under the facility is limited to the value of our investment in Walnut Street.

Pricing under the Walnut Street credit facility is based on LIBOR for an interest period equal to the weighted average LIBOR interest period of eligible debt securities owned by Walnut Street, plus a spread ranging between 1.50% and 2.75% per annum, depending on the composition of the portfolio of debt securities for the relevant period. Beginning on September 17, 2012, Walnut Street became subject to a non-usage fee to the extent the aggregate principal amount available under the Walnut Street credit facility is not borrowed. Any amounts borrowed under the Walnut Street credit facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on May 17, 2017.

As of September 30, 2012, $157,448 was outstanding under the Walnut Street credit facility. The carrying amount of the amount outstanding under the facility approximates its fair value. We incurred costs of $3,761 in connection with obtaining the Walnut Street credit facility, which we have recorded as deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets and amortize to interest expense over the life of the facility. As of September 30, 2012, $3,482 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate on the borrowings under the Walnut Street credit facility was 2.60% per annum as of September 30, 2012. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears and commenced October 15, 2012. We recorded interest expense of $777 and $867 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, of which $191 and $279 related to the amortization of deferred financing costs and $72 and $72 related to commitment fees on the unused portion of the credit facility, respectively. We paid $0 in interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The average borrowings under the Walnut Street credit facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $73,210, with a weighted average interest rate (including the effect of non-usage fees) of 3.05%.

Borrowings under the Walnut Street credit facility are subject to compliance with a borrowing base, pursuant to which the amount of funds advanced to Walnut Street varies depending upon the types of debt securities in Walnut Street’s portfolio.

The occurrence of certain collateral control events triggers (i) a requirement that Walnut Street obtain the consent of Wells Fargo prior to entering into any transaction with respect to portfolio assets and (ii) the right of Wells Fargo to direct Walnut Street to enter into transactions with respect to any portfolio assets, in each case in Wells Fargo’s sole discretion. Collateral control events include non-performance of any obligation under the transaction documents by Walnut Street, us, FB Advisor or GDFM, and other events with respect to such entities that are adverse to Wells Fargo and the secured parties under the Walnut Street credit facility.

In connection with the Walnut Street credit facility, Walnut Street has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. In addition to customary events of default included in financing transactions,

Table of Contents

the Walnut Street credit facility contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to make principal payments when due or interest payments within three business days of when due; (b) a borrowing base deficiency that is not cured in accordance with the terms of the facility; (c) the insolvency or bankruptcy of Walnut Street or us; (d) our resignation or removal as collateral manager; (e) our failure to maintain an asset coverage ratio of greater than or equal to 2:1; (f) our failure to have a net asset value of at least $200,000; and (g) the failure of Walnut Street to qualify as a bankruptcy-remote entity. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, Wells Fargo may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the Walnut Street credit facility immediately due and payable. During the continuation of an event of default, Walnut Street must pay interest at a default rate.

Borrowings of Walnut Street will be considered borrowings by us for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act applicable to BDCs.

RIC Status and Distributions

We have elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, distribute at least 90% of our “investment company taxable income,” as defined by the Code, each year. As long as the distributions are declared by the later of the fifteenth day of the ninth month following the close of the taxable year or the due date of the tax return, including extensions, distributions paid up to one year after the current tax year can be carried back to the prior tax year for determining the distributions paid in such tax year. We intend to make sufficient distributions to our stockholders to qualify for and maintain our RIC status each year. We are also subject to nondeductible federal excise taxes if we do not distribute at least 98% of net ordinary income, 98.2% of any capital gain net income, if any, and any recognized and undistributed income from prior years on which we paid no federal income taxes.

Following commencement of our operations, we declared our first distribution on January 29, 2009. Subject to our board of directors’ discretion and applicable legal restrictions, we intend to authorize and declare ordinary cash distributions on a monthly basis and pay such distributions on either a monthly or quarterly basis. While we historically paid distributions on a quarterly basis, commencing in the fourth quarter of 2010, we began to pay distributions on a monthly rather than quarterly basis. We will calculate each stockholder’s specific distribution amount for the period using record and declaration dates and each stockholder’s distributions will begin to accrue on the date that shares of our common stock are issued to such stockholder. From time to time, we may also pay special interim distributions in the form of cash or shares of our common stock at the discretion of our board of directors. During certain periods, our distributions may exceed our earnings. As a result, it is possible that a portion of the distributions we make may represent a return of capital for tax purposes. A return of capital generally is a return of an investor’s investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from our investment activities and will be made after deducting fees and expenses, including any fees payable to FB Advisor. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the source of the distributions will be mailed to our stockholders. No portion of the distributions paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 or 2011 represented a return of capital for tax purposes.

We intend to continue to make our ordinary distributions in the form of cash out of assets legally available for distribution, unless stockholders elect to receive their distributions in additional shares of our common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan. Any distributions reinvested under the plan will nevertheless remain taxable to a U.S. stockholder.

On October 3, 2012, our board of directors declared a regular monthly cash distribution of $0.0675 per share, which was paid on October 31, 2012 to stockholders of record on October 30, 2012. On November 8, 2012, our board of directors declared a regular monthly cash distribution of $0.0675 per share, which is expected to be paid on November 30, 2012 to stockholders of record on November 29, 2012. The timing and amount of any future distributions to stockholders are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of our board of directors.

We have adopted an “opt in” distribution reinvestment plan for our stockholders. As a result, if we make a distribution, our stockholders will receive distributions in cash unless they specifically “opt in” to the distribution reinvestment plan so as to have their cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock.

We may fund our cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds available to us, including offering proceeds, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, dividends or other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and expense reimbursements from Franklin Square Holdings. We have not established limits on the amount of funds we may use from available sources to make distributions.

The following table reflects the sources of the cash distributions that we have paid on our common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011:

Our net investment income on a tax basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $129,901 and $48,572, respectively. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had $17,711 and $16,591, respectively, of undistributed net investment income on a tax basis. Our undistributed net investment income on a tax basis as of December 31, 2011 has been adjusted following the filing of our 2011 tax return in September 2012. The adjustment was due primarily to the fact that tax-basis income we received during the year ended December 31, 2011 exceeded GAAP-basis income with respect to collateralized securities held in our investment portfolio during such period. The tax notices for the collateralized securities were received by us subsequent to the filing of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The difference between our GAAP-basis net investment income and our tax-basis net investment income is due to the tax-basis amortization of organization costs incurred prior to the commencement of our operations, interest income earned on a tax basis due to the required accretion of discount on non-performing loans, the reversal of the required accrual for GAAP purposes of incentive fees on unrealized gains even though no such incentive fees on unrealized gains are payable by us, the inclusion of periodic payments due on our total return swap in tax-basis net investment income and the accretion of discount on the total return swap. The following table sets forth a reconciliation between GAAP-basis net investment income and tax-basis net investment income during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011:

The determination of the tax attributes of our distributions is made annually as of the end of our fiscal year based upon our taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. Therefore, a determination made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of our distributions for a full year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders are reported to stockholders annually on a Form 1099-DIV.

The purpose of these special stock distributions was to maintain a net asset value per share that was below the then-current offering price, after deducting selling commissions and dealer manager fees, as required by the 1940 Act, subject to certain limited exceptions. Our board of directors determined that our portfolio performance sufficiently warranted taking these actions.

The stock distributions increased the number of shares outstanding, thereby reducing our net asset value per share. However, because the stock distributions were issued to all stockholders as of the applicable record date in proportion to their holdings as of such date, the reduction in net asset value per share as a result of the stock distributions was offset exactly by the increase in the number of shares owned by each investor. As overall value to an investor was not reduced as a result of the special stock distributions, our board of directors determined that these issuances would not be dilutive to stockholders as of the applicable record date. As the stock distributions did not change any stockholder’s proportionate interest in us, they did not represent taxable distributions. Specific tax characteristics of all distributions are reported to stockholders annually on Form 1099-DIV.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the gross unrealized depreciation on our investments and total return swap and loss on foreign currency were $28,007 and $48,032, respectively.

The aggregate cost of our investments for federal income tax purposes totaled $3,806,890 and $1,877,071 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The aggregate net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis, including the TRS, was $93,728 and ($34,709) as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. We terminated the TRS on August 29, 2012. See “—Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources—Arch Street Credit Facility.”

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Critical accounting policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. As we execute our operating plans, we will describe additional critical accounting policies in the notes to our future financial statements in addition to those discussed below.

Valuation of Portfolio Investments

We determine the net asset value of our investment portfolio each quarter. Securities that are publicly-traded are valued at the reported closing price on the valuation date. Securities that are not publicly-traded are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors. In connection with that determination, FB Advisor provides our board of directors with portfolio company valuations which are based on relevant inputs, including, but not limited to, indicative dealer quotes, values of like securities, recent portfolio company financial statements and forecasts, and valuations prepared by third-party valuation services.

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure , or ASC Topic 820, issued by the FASB, clarifies the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, which includes inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities in active markets and quoted prices for identical securities where there is little or no activity in the market; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, we undertake a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

our quarterly valuation process begins with FB Advisor’s management team providing a preliminary valuation of each portfolio company or investment to our valuation committee, which valuation may be obtained from our sub-adviser or an independent valuation firm, if applicable;

preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with our valuation committee;

our valuation committee reviews the preliminary valuation and FB Advisor’s management team, together with our independent valuation firm, if applicable, responds and supplements the preliminary valuation to reflect any comments provided by the valuation committee; and

our board of directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on various statistical and other factors, including the input and recommendation of FB Advisor, the valuation committee and any third-party valuation firm, if applicable.

Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our consolidated financial statements refer to the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations and any change in such valuations on our consolidated financial statements. Below is a description of factors that our board of directors may consider when valuing our equity and debt investments.

Valuation of fixed income investments, such as loans and debt securities, depends upon a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates for like securities, expected volatility in future interest rates, call features, put features and other relevant terms of the debt. For investments without readily available market prices, we may incorporate these factors into discounted cash flow models to arrive at fair value. Other factors that our board of directors may consider include the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, the fair market value of the portfolio company in relation to the face amount of its outstanding debt and the quality of collateral securing our debt investments.

For convertible debt securities, fair value generally approximates the fair value of the debt plus the fair value of an option to purchase the underlying security (the security into which the debt may convert) at the conversion price. To value such an option, a standard option pricing model may be used.

68


Table of Contents

Our equity interests in portfolio companies for which there is no liquid public market are valued at fair value. Our board of directors, in its analysis of fair value, may consider various factors, such as multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. All of these factors may be subject to adjustments based upon the particular circumstances of a portfolio company or our actual investment position. For example, adjustments to EBITDA may take into account compensation to previous owners or acquisition, recapitalization, restructuring or other related items.

Our board of directors may also look to private merger and acquisition statistics, public trading multiples discounted for illiquidity and other factors, valuations implied by third-party investments in the portfolio companies or industry practices in determining fair value. Our board of directors may also consider the size and scope of a portfolio company and its specific strengths and weaknesses, as well as any other factors it deems relevant in assessing the value. Generally, the value of our equity interests in public companies for which market quotations are readily available is based upon the most recent closing public market price. Portfolio securities that carry certain restrictions on sale are typically valued at a discount from the public market value of the security.

When we receive warrants or other equity securities at nominal or no additional cost in connection with an investment in a debt security, our board of directors allocates the cost basis in the investment between the debt securities and any such warrants or other equity securities received at the time of origination. Our board of directors subsequently values these warrants or other equity securities received at fair value.

The fair values of our investments are determined in good faith by our board of directors. Our board of directors is solely responsible for the valuation of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to our valuation policy and consistently applied valuation process.

Our investments as of September 30, 2012 consisted primarily of debt securities that are traded on a private over-the-counter market for institutional investors. Except as described below, we valued our investments by using independent third-party pricing services, which provided prevailing bid and ask prices that were screened for validity by the services from dealers on the date of the relevant period end. Sixteen senior secured loan investments and seven subordinated debt investments, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by an independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, call features and other relevant terms of the debt. All of our equity/other investments were valued by the same independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, contractual rights ascribed to such investments, as well as various income scenarios and multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. Two collateralized securities were valued by obtaining bid and ask prices from an independent dealer. Two senior secured loan investments and one senior secured bond investment, all of which were newly-issued and purchased near September 30, 2012, were valued at cost, as our board of directors determined that the cost of each such investment was the best indication of its fair value.

Our investments as of December 31, 2011 consisted primarily of debt securities that are traded on a private over-the-counter market for institutional investors. Except as described below, we valued our investments by using independent third-party pricing services, which provided prevailing bid and ask prices that were screened for validity by the services from dealers on the date of the relevant period end. Eleven senior secured loan investments and three subordinated debt investments, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by an independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, call features and other relevant terms of the debt. All of our equity/other investments were valued by the same independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering various factors, such as multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. Two senior secured loans and two subordinated debt investments, all of which were newly-

issued and purchased near December 31, 2011, were valued at cost, as our board of directors determined that the cost of each such investment was the best indication of its fair value. We valued our TRS in accordance with the TRS Agreement. Pursuant to the TRS Agreement, the value of the TRS was based on the increase or decrease in the value of the loans underlying the TRS, together with accrued interest income, interest expense and certain other expenses incurred under the TRS. The loans underlying the TRS were valued by Citibank. Citibank based its valuation on the indicative bid prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service. Bid prices reflect the highest price that market participants may be willing to pay. These valuations were sent to us for review and testing. Our valuation committee and board of directors reviewed and approved the value of the TRS, as well as the value of the loans underlying the TRS, on a quarterly basis as part of their quarterly determination of net asset value. To the extent our valuation committee or board of directors had any questions or concerns regarding the valuation of the loans underlying the TRS, such valuation was discussed or challenged pursuant to the terms of the TRS. For additional information on the TRS, which was terminated on August 29, 2012, see “—Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources—Arch Street Credit Facility.”

We periodically benchmark the bid and ask prices we receive from the third-party pricing services against the actual prices at which we purchase and sell our investments. Based on the results of the benchmark analysis and the experience of our management in purchasing and selling these investments, we believe that these prices are reliable indicators of fair value. However, because of the private nature of this marketplace (meaning actual transactions are not publicly reported), we believe that these valuation inputs are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. We may also use other methods to determine fair value for securities for which we cannot obtain prevailing bid and ask prices through third-party pricing services or independent dealers, including the use of an independent valuation firm. We periodically benchmark the valuations provided by the independent valuation firm against the actual prices at which we purchase and sell our investments. Our valuation committee and board of directors reviewed and approved the valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with our valuation process.

Revenue Recognition

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. We record interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. We record dividend income on the ex-dividend date. We do not accrue as a receivable interest or dividends on loans and securities if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such income. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount are capitalized and we amortize such amounts as interest income over the respective term of the loan. Upon prepayment of a loan or security, any unamortized loan origination fees are recorded as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and securities as interest income when we receive such amounts.

Net Realized Gains or Losses, Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation and Net Change in Unrealized Gains or Losses on Foreign Currency

Gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated by using the specific identification method. We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized upfront fees. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including any reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses when gains or losses are realized. Net change in unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency reflects the change in the value of receivables or accruals during the reporting period due to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

Capital Gains Incentive Fee

Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement we entered into with FB Advisor, the incentive fee on capital gains earned on liquidated investments of our portfolio during operations

70


Table of Contents

prior to our liquidation is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement). Such fee will equal 20.0% of our incentive fee capital gains (i.e., our realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of the applicable period, net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis), less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. On a quarterly basis, we accrue for the capital gains incentive fee by calculating such fee as if it were due and payable as of the end of such period.

While the investment advisory and administrative services agreement with FB Advisor neither includes nor contemplates the inclusion of unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee, pursuant to an interpretation of an AICPA Technical Practice Aid for investment companies, commencing during the quarter ended December 31, 2010, we changed our methodology for accruing for this incentive fee to include unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee expense and related accrued capital gains incentive fee. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be payable to FB Advisor if our entire portfolio were liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though FB Advisor is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. As of December 31, 2011, there was $0 in capital gains incentive fees payable to FB Advisor. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $17,421 and $33,920, respectively, based on the performance of our portfolio, of which $11,449 and $27,421, respectively, were based on unrealized gains and $5,972 and $6,499, respectively, were based on realized gains. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we reversed $7,974 and $4,063 in capital gains incentive fees accrued by us as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, as a result of unrealized losses in our portfolio during the respective periods.

Uncertainty in Income Taxes

We evaluate our tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax benefits or liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. Recognition of a tax benefit or liability with respect to an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. We recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities as income tax expense in our consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we did not incur any interest or penalties.

Contractual Obligations

We have entered into an agreement with FB Advisor to provide us with investment advisory and administrative services. Payments for investment advisory services under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement are equal to (a) an annual base management fee of 2.0% of the average value of our gross assets and (b) an incentive fee based on our performance. FB Advisor, and to the extent it is required to provide such services, our sub-adviser, are reimbursed for administrative expenses incurred on our behalf. For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred $19,021 and $7,432, respectively, in base management fees and $1,782 and $915, respectively, in administrative services expenses under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred $46,570 and $18,216, respectively, in base management fees and $4,116 and $1,903, respectively, in administrative services expenses under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement. In addition, FB Advisor is eligible to receive incentive fees based on performance. As of December 31, 2011, there was $0 in capital gains incentive fees payable to FB Advisor. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $17,421 and $33,920, respectively, based on the performance of our portfolio, of which $11,449 and $27,421, respectively, were based on unrealized gains and $5,972 and $6,499, respectively, were based on realized gains. During the three and nine months ended

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs . This guidance represents the converged guidance of the Accounting Boards on fair value measurement. The collective efforts of the Accounting Boards reflected in this guidance have resulted in common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements, including a consistent meaning of the term “fair value” and enhanced disclosure requirements for investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. The Accounting Boards have concluded the common requirements will result in greater comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The amendments to the FASB codification in this guidance are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We have implemented this guidance and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, except for enhanced disclosures around fair value measurements.

Related Party Transactions

We have entered into an investment advisory and administrative services agreement with FB Advisor. Pursuant to this agreement, FB Advisor is entitled to an annual base management fee of 2.0% of the average value of our gross assets and an incentive fee of 20.0% of net investment income, subject to an annualized 8.0% hurdle, and 20.0% of net realized capital gains, if applicable.

We commenced accruing fees under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement on January 2, 2009, upon the commencement of our operations. Management fees are paid on a quarterly basis in arrears. As of December 31, 2011, $9,572 in base management fees were payable to FB Advisor. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we accrued $46,570 and $18,216, respectively, in base management fees payable to FB Advisor, including $19,021 and $7,432, respectively, in base management fees accrued during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. We paid $37,028 and $14,093, respectively, of these fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. As of September 30, 2012, $19,114 in base management fees were payable to FB Advisor.

We accrue for the capital gains incentive fee, which, if earned, is paid annually. We accrue the incentive fee based on net realized and unrealized gains; however, under the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, the fee payable to FB Advisor is based on realized gains and no such fee is payable with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. As of December 31, 2011, there was $0 in capital gains incentive fees payable to FB Advisor. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $17,421 and $33,920, respectively, based on the performance of our portfolio, of which $11,449 and $27,421, respectively, were based on unrealized gains and $5,972 and $6,499, respectively, were based on realized gains. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we reversed $7,974 and $4,063 in capital gains incentive fees accrued by us as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, as a result of unrealized losses in our portfolio during the respective periods.

We reimburse FB Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to our administration and operations. The amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (1) FB Advisor’s actual costs incurred in providing such services and (2) the amount that we estimate we would be required to pay alternative service providers for comparable services in the same geographic location. FB Advisor is required to allocate the cost of such services to us based on objective factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. Our board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to us of obtaining similar services from third-party providers known to be available. In addition, our board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, our board of directors compares the total amount paid to FB Advisor for such services as a percentage of our net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs.

As of December 31, 2011, we had $154 of administrative services expense payable to FB Advisor. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred administrative services expenses of $4,116 and $1,903, respectively, attributable to FB Advisor, of which $3,789 and $1,366, respectively, related to the allocation of costs of administrative personnel for services rendered to us by FB Advisor and the remainder related to other reimbursable expenses. We paid FB Advisor $2,661 and $1,419, respectively, for the services rendered under this arrangement during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. As of September 30, 2012, we had $1,609 in administrative services expense payable to FB Advisor.

The dealer manager for our public offering was FS 2 , which is one of our affiliates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, FS 2 retained $15,842 and $15,622, respectively, for selling commissions and dealer manager fees in connection with the sale of our common stock.

Under the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, when our registration statement was declared effective by the SEC and we were successful in satisfying the minimum offering

Table of Contents

requirement, FB Advisor became entitled to receive 1.5% of gross proceeds raised in our continuous public offering until all offering costs and organization costs funded by FB Advisor or its affiliates (including Franklin Square Holdings) had been recovered. On January 2, 2009, we satisfied the minimum offering requirement. We paid total reimbursements of $0 and $641 to FB Advisor and its affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The reimbursements were recorded as a reduction of capital. As of September 30, 2012, no amounts were reimbursable to FB Advisor and its affiliates under this arrangement.

FB Advisor’s senior management team is comprised of the same personnel as the senior management teams of FS Investment Advisor, LLC and FSIC II Advisor, LLC, the investment advisers to Franklin Square Holdings’ other affiliated BDCs, FS Energy and Power Fund and FS Investment Corporation II, respectively. As a result, such personnel provide investment advisory services to us and each of FS Energy and Power Fund and FS Investment Corporation II. While none of FB Advisor, FS Investment Advisor, LLC or FSIC II Advisor, LLC is currently making private corporate debt investments for clients other than us, FS Energy and Power Fund and FS Investment Corporation II, respectively, any, or all, may do so in the future. In the event that FB Advisor undertakes to provide investment advisory services to other clients in the future, it intends to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner consistent with our investment objectives and strategies, if necessary, so that we will not be disadvantaged in relation to any other client of FB Advisor or its management team. In addition, even in the absence of FB Advisor retaining additional clients, it is possible that some investment opportunities may be provided to FS Energy and Power Fund or FS Investment Corporation II rather than to us.

Beginning on February 26, 2009, Franklin Square Holdings agreed to reimburse us for expenses in an amount that was sufficient to ensure that, for tax purposes, our net investment income and net capital gains were equal to or greater than the cumulative distributions paid to our stockholders in each quarter. This arrangement was designed to ensure that no portion of our distributions would represent a return of capital for our stockholders. Under this arrangement, Franklin Square Holdings had no obligation to reimburse any portion of our expenses.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement entered into on March 13, 2012, Franklin Square Holdings has agreed to reimburse us for expenses in an amount that is sufficient to ensure that no portion of our distributions to stockholders will be paid from our offering proceeds or borrowings. However, because certain investments we may make, including preferred and common equity investments, may generate dividends and other distributions to us that are treated for tax purposes as a return of capital, a portion of our distributions to stockholders may also be deemed to constitute a return of capital for tax purposes to the extent that we may use such dividends or other distribution proceeds to fund our distributions to stockholders. Under those circumstances, Franklin Square Holdings will not reimburse us for the portion of such distributions to stockholders that represent a return of capital for tax purposes, as the purpose of the expense reimbursement arrangement is not to prevent tax-advantaged distributions to stockholders.

Under the expense reimbursement agreement, Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse us for expenses in an amount equal to the difference between our cumulative distributions paid to our stockholders in each quarter, less the sum of our net investment income for tax purposes, net capital gains and dividends and other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts are not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) in each quarter.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, we will have a conditional obligation to reimburse Franklin Square Holdings for any amounts funded by Franklin Square Holdings under such agreement if (and only to the extent that), during any fiscal quarter occurring within three years of the date on which Franklin Square Holdings funded such amount, the sum of our net investment income for tax purposes, net capital gains and the amount of any dividends and other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity

74


Table of Contents

investments in portfolio companies (to the extent not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) exceeds the distributions paid by us to stockholders. The expense reimbursement agreement does not apply to any amounts funded by Franklin Square Holdings prior to the date of such agreement.

We or Franklin Square Holdings may terminate the expense reimbursement agreement at any time. If we terminate the investment advisory and administrative services agreement with FB Advisor, we will be required to repay Franklin Square Holdings all reimbursements funded by Franklin Square Holdings within three years of the date of termination.

The specific amount of expenses reimbursed by Franklin Square Holdings, if any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, no such reimbursements were required from Franklin Square Holdings. Franklin Square Holdings is controlled by our chairman, president and chief executive officer, Michael C. Forman, and our vice-chairman, David J. Adelman. There can be no assurance that the expense reimbursement agreement will remain in effect or that Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse any portion of our expenses in future quarters.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of September 30, 2012, approximately 24.9% of our portfolio investments (based on fair value) paid fixed interest rates, approximately 2.1% were non-income producing and the remainder paid variable interest rates. A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates applicable to any variable rate investments we hold and to declines in the value of any fixed rate investments we hold. To the extent that a majority of our investments may be in variable rate investments, an increase in interest rates would make it easier for us to meet or exceed the hurdle rate for the subordinated incentive fee on income payable to FB Advisor, and may result in a substantial increase in our net investment income and to the amount of incentive fees payable to FB Advisor with respect to our increased pre-incentive fee net investment income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Arch Street credit facility, the Broad Street credit facility and the Walnut Street credit facility, Arch Street, Broad Street and Walnut Street, respectively, borrow at a floating rate based on LIBOR. Under the terms of the JPM Facility, Race Street pays interest to JPM at a fixed rate. To the extent that any present or future credit facilities or other financing arrangements that we or any of our subsidiaries enter into are based on a floating interest rate, we will be subject to risks relating to changes in market interest rates. In periods of rising interest rates when we or our subsidiaries have such debt outstanding, our interest expense would increase, which could reduce our net investment income, especially to the extent we hold fixed rate investments.

The following table shows the effect over a twelve month period of changes in interest rates on our interest income, interest expense and net interest income, assuming no changes in our investment portfolio and borrowing arrangements in effect as of September 30, 2012 (dollar amounts are presented in thousands):

We expect that our long-term investments will be financed primarily with equity and debt. If deemed prudent, we may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to minimize our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. These techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Adverse developments resulting from changes in interest rates or hedging transactions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we did not engage in interest rate hedging activities.

In addition, we may have risk regarding portfolio valuation. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies—Valuation of Portfolio Investments.”

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2012. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that we would meet our disclosure obligations.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us. From time to time, we may be party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. While the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes from the risk factors set forth in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2012 and our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, except as set forth below.

Risks Related to Our Investments

The risk factor set forth in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 entitled “ We may enter into total return swap agreements or other derivative transactions which expose us to certain risks, including market risk, liquidity risk and other risks similar to those associated with the use of leverage ” is hereby deleted in its entirety.

Risks Related to Debt Financing

The second risk factor entitled “ We are subject to risks associated with our debt securitization facility ” set forth in the section of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 entitled “ Risk Factors—Risks Related to Debt Financing” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

We are subject to risks associated with our debt securitization facility.

On September 26, 2012, through two wholly-owned subsidiaries, we entered into an amendment to our debt financing arrangement with JPM, pursuant to which up to $700 million will be made available to us to fund investments and for other general corporate purposes. The financing transaction with JPM is structured as a debt securitization. We use the term “debt securitization” to describe a form of secured borrowing under which an operating company, sometimes referred to as an originator, acquires or originates loans or other assets that earn income, whether on a one-time or recurring basis (collectively referred to herein as “income producing assets”), and borrows money on a non-recourse basis against a legally separate pool of income producing assets. In a typical debt securitization, the originator transfers the income producing assets to a special-purpose, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary, also referred to as a “special purpose entity”, which is established solely for the purpose of holding income producing assets and issuing debt secured by these income producing assets. The special purpose entity completes the borrowing through the issuance of notes secured by the income producing assets.

Pursuant to the financing transaction, loans in our portfolio having an aggregate market value of approximately $1.3 billion may be sold by us from time to time to Locust Street pursuant to the Locust Asset Transfer Agreement. The loans held by Locust Street will secure the obligations of Locust Street under the Class A Notes to be issued from time to time by Locust Street to Race Street pursuant to the Indenture. The Class A Notes may be issued in an aggregate principal amount of up to $840 million and mature on October 15, 2023. Race Street will purchase the issued Class A Notes from time to time at a purchase price equal to their par value.

77


Table of Contents

Race Street, in turn, has entered into a repurchase transaction with JPM pursuant to the terms of the JPM Facility. Pursuant to the JPM Facility, JPM has agreed to purchase from time to time Class A Notes held by Race Street for an aggregate purchase price equal to approximately 83.33% of the principal amount of Class A Notes purchased. Subject to certain conditions, the maximum principal amount of Class A Notes that may be purchased under the JPM Facility is $840 million. Accordingly, the maximum amount payable at any time to Race Street under the JPM Facility will not exceed $700 million.

In connection with the JPM Facility, we may sell from time to time loans in our portfolio having an aggregate market value of approximately $600 million to Race Street pursuant to the Race Asset Transfer Agreement. The loans purchased by Race Street from us will secure the obligations of Race Street under the JPM Facility.

See “Part I—Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources—JPM Financing” for a more detailed discussion of the terms of this debt securitization facility.

As a result of this debt securitization facility, we are subject to certain risks, including those set forth below.

Our equity investment in Locust Street is subordinated to the debt obligations of Locust Street.

Under the Locust Asset Transfer Agreement, as of September 30, 2012, we had sold loans to Locust Street for a purchase price of approximately $736.4 million, all of which consisted of the issuance to us of equity interests in Locust Street. Any dividends or other payments in respect of our equity interest in Locust Street are subordinated in priority of payment to the Class A Notes. In addition, Locust Street is subject to certain payment restrictions set forth in the Indenture in respect of its equity interest.

We will receive cash distributions based on our investment in Locust Street only if Locust Street has made all required cash interest payments on the Class A Notes. We cannot assure stockholders that distributions on the assets held by Locust Street will be sufficient to make any distributions to us or that the yield on our investment in Locust Street will meet our expectations.

Our equity investment in Locust Street is unsecured and ranks behind all of the creditors, known or unknown, of Locust Street, including the holders of the Class A Notes. Consequently, if the value of Locust Street’s portfolio of loan investments decreases as a result of conditions in the credit markets, defaulted loans, capital gains and losses on the underlying assets or prepayment or changes in interest rates generally, the value of our equity investment in Locust Street could be reduced. Accordingly, our investment in Locust Street may not produce a profit and may be subject to a loss in an amount up to the entire amount of such equity investment.

In addition, if the value of Locust Street’s portfolio of loan investments decreases and Locust Street is unable to make any required payments to Race Street pursuant to the terms of the Class A Notes, Race Street may, in turn, be unable to make any required payments to JPM pursuant to the terms of the JPM Facility. In such event, if the value of Race Street’s portfolio of loan investments is not sufficient to meet Race Street’s payment obligations to JPM, we may be required to loan or otherwise provide additional funds to Race Street to cover Race Street’s payment obligations to JPM, or otherwise be subject to a loss in an amount up to the entire amount of our equity investment in Race Street.

Our equity investment in Race Street is subordinated to the debt obligations of Race Street.

Under the Race Asset Transfer Agreement, as of September 30, 2012, we had sold loans to Race Street for a purchase price of approximately $515.2 million, all of which consisted of the issuance to us of equity interests in Race Street. Any dividends or other payments in respect of our equity interest in Race Street are subordinated in priority of payment to Race Street’s payment obligations under the JPM Facility. In addition, Race Street is subject to certain payment restrictions set forth in the JPM Facility in respect of its equity interest.

Table of Contents

We will receive cash distributions based on our investment in Race Street only if Race Street has made all required payments under the JPM Facility. We cannot assure stockholders that distributions on the assets held by Race Street, including the Class A Notes, will be sufficient to make any distributions to us or that the yield on our investment in Race Street will meet our expectations.

Our equity investment in Race Street is unsecured and ranks behind all of the creditors, known or unknown, of Race Street, including JPM. Consequently, if the value of Race Street’s portfolio of loan investments decreases as a result of conditions in the credit markets, defaulted loans, capital gains and losses on the underlying assets or prepayment or changes in interest rates generally, the value of our equity investment in Race Street could be reduced. Accordingly, our investment in Race Street may not produce a profit and may be subject to a loss in an amount up to the entire amount of such equity investment.

In addition, if the value of Race Street’s portfolio of loan investments decreases or Locust Street fails to make any required payments to Race Street pursuant to the terms of the Class A Notes, Race Street may be unable to make any required payments to JPM pursuant to the terms of the JPM Facility. In such event, if the value of Race Street’s portfolio of loan investments is not sufficient to meet Race Street’s payment obligations to JPM, we may be required to loan or otherwise provide additional funds to Race Street to cover Race Street’s payment obligations to JPM, or otherwise be subject to a loss in an amount up to the entire amount of our equity investment in Race Street.

Our equity investments in Locust Street and Race Street have a high degree of leverage.

The maximum aggregate principal amount of the Class A Notes that may be issued is $840 million and loans in our portfolio having an aggregate market value of approximately $1.3 billion may be sold by us from time to time to Locust Street. Similarly, the maximum repurchase amount payable at any time by Race Street to JPM under the JPM Facility is $700 million, plus applicable interest, and loans in our portfolio having an aggregate market value of approximately $600 million may be sold by us from time to time to Race Street. The market value of our equity investments in Locust Street and Race Street may be significantly affected by a variety of factors, including changes in the market value of the investments held by Locust Street and Race Street, changes in distributions on the investments held by Locust Street and Race Street, defaults and recoveries on those investments, capital gains and losses on those investments, prepayments on those investments and other risks associated with those investments. Our investments in Locust Street and Race Street may not produce a profit and may be subject to a loss in an amount up to the entire amount of such equity investment. The leveraged nature of our equity investment may magnify the adverse impact of any loss on our equity investment.

The interests of JPM, as the holder of the Class A Notes, may not be aligned with our interests, and we will not have control over remedies in respect of the Class A Notes.

The Class A Notes rank senior in right of payment to any equity securities issued by Locust Street. As a result, there are circumstances in which the interests of JPM, as the holder of the Class A Notes, may not be aligned with our interests. For example, under the terms of the Class A Notes, JPM has the right to receive payments of principal and interest prior to Locust Street making any distributions or dividends to holders of its equity securities.

For as long as the Class A Notes remain outstanding, JPM has the right to act in certain circumstances with respect to the portfolio of loans that secure the obligations of Locust Street under the Class A Notes in ways that may benefit their interests but not ours, including by exercising remedies or directing the Indenture trustee to declare events of default under or accelerate the Class A Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. JPM has no obligation to consider any possible adverse effect that actions taken may have on our equity interests. For example, upon the occurrence of an event of default with respect to the Class A Notes, the trustee, which is currently Citibank, may declare the outstanding principal amount of all of the Class A Notes, together with any accrued interest thereon, to be immediately due and payable. This would have the effect of accelerating the outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes and triggering a repayment obligation on the part of Locust Street. Locust Street may not have proceeds sufficient to make required payments on the Class A Notes and make

any distributions to us. Any failure of Locust Street to make distributions on the equity interests we hold could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and may result in our inability to make distributions to our stockholders in amounts sufficient to maintain our qualification as a RIC, or at all.

Locust Street may fail to meet certain asset coverage and quality tests, which would have an adverse effect on us.

Under the Indenture, there are coverage tests and quality tests applicable to the collateral securing the Class A Notes. The first coverage test, or the Class A Interest Coverage Test, compares the amount of interest received on the portfolio of loans held by Locust Street to the amount of interest payable in respect of the Class A Notes. To meet the Class A Interest Coverage Test, the aggregate amount of interest received on the portfolio of loans held by Locust Street must equal at least 150% of the interest payable in respect of the Class A Notes. The second coverage test, or the Class A Par Value Test, compares the aggregate principal amount of the portfolio of loans (other than any loan acquired for a purchase price of less than 80% of its principal amount, which loan will be assigned a value equal to its purchase price) plus cash held by Locust Street to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes. To meet the Class A Par Value Test, the aggregate principal amount of the portfolio of loans (other than any loan acquired for a purchase price of less than 80% of its principal amount, which loan will be assigned a value equal to its purchase price) plus cash held by Locust Street must equal at least 145.36% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes. The third coverage test, or the Additional Class A Par Value Test, compares the aggregate principal amount of the portfolio of loans (other than any defaulted loan, which loan will be assigned a value equal to its market value) held by Locust Street to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes. To meet the Additional Class A Par Value Test, the aggregate principal amount of the portfolio of loans (other than any defaulted loan, which loan will be assigned a value equal to its market value) held by Locust Street must equal at least 130% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes. The quality tests compare the minimum weighted average fixed coupon rates, the minimum weighted average floating coupon rates, the weighted average life, the anticipated recovery rates and the anticipated default rates of the portfolio of loans held by Locust Street to certain benchmarks as described more fully in the Indenture.

If the Class A Interest Coverage Test or the Class A Par Value Test is not satisfied on any date on which compliance is measured, Locust Street is required to apply available amounts to the repayment of the outstanding principal of the Class A Notes to satisfy the applicable tests. Failure to satisfy the Additional Class A Par Value Test on any measurement date constitutes an event of default under the Indenture. Obligations that may be added to the portfolio of loans held by Locust Street and constituting collateral from time to time under the Indenture are subject to certain restrictions in respect of the quality tests referenced above and more fully described in the Indenture.

The market value of the underlying loans held by Locust Street and Race Street may decline causing Race Street to borrow funds from us in order to meet certain margin posting and minimum market value requirements, which would have an adverse effect on the timing of payments to us.

If at any time during the term of the JPM Facility the market value of the underlying loans held by Locust Street securing the Class A Notes declines below the Margin Threshold, Race Street will be required to post cash collateral with JPM in an amount at least equal to the amount by which the market value of such loans at such time is less than the Margin Threshold. Similarly, pursuant to the JPM Facility, the market value of the underlying loans held by Race Street must be at least $500 million, or the Market Value Requirement. In either such event, in order to satisfy these requirements, Race Street intends to borrow funds from us pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement. We may, in our sole discretion, make such loans from time to time to Race Street pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement will accrue interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus a spread of 0.75% per annum. To the extent we loan additional funds to Race Street to satisfy the Margin Threshold or the Market Value Requirement, such event could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows,

and may result in our inability to make distributions to our stockholders in amounts sufficient to maintain our qualification as a RIC, or at all. There is no assurance that loans made pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement will be repaid.

Restructurings of investments held by Locust Street or Race Street, if any, may decrease their value and reduce the value of our equity interests in these entities.

As collateral manager, we have broad authority to direct and supervise the investment and reinvestment of the investments held by Locust Street and Race Street, which may require from time to time the execution of amendments, waivers, modifications and other changes to the investment documentation in accordance with the related collateral management agreements we have entered into with Locust Street and Race Street. During periods of economic uncertainty and recession, the necessity for amendments, waivers, modifications and restructurings of investments may increase. Such amendments, waivers, modifications and other restructurings may change the terms of the investments and, in some cases, may result in Locust Street or Race Street holding assets that do not meet certain specified criteria for the investments made by it. This could adversely impact the coverage and quality tests under the Indenture applicable to Locust Street. This could also adversely impact the ability of Locust Street to meet the Margin Threshold and Race Street to meet the Market Value Requirement. Any amendment, waiver, modification or other restructuring that reduces Locust Street’s compliance with the coverage and quality tests under the Indenture will make it more likely that Locust Street will need to pay cash to reduce the unpaid principal amount of the Class A Notes so as to cure any breach of such tests. Similarly, any amendment, waiver, modification or other restructuring that reduces Locust Street’s ability to meet the Margin Threshold or Race Street’s ability to meet the Market Value Requirement will make it more likely that Race Street will need to retain assets, including cash, to increase the market value of the assets held by Race Street and to post cash collateral with JPM in an amount at least equal to the amount by which the market value of the underlying loans held by Locust Street is less than the Margin Threshold. Any such use of cash by Locust Street or Race Street would reduce distributions available to us or delay the timing of distributions to us.

We may not receive cash from Locust Street or Race Street.

We receive cash from Locust Street and Race Street only to the extent that Locust Street or Race Street, respectively, makes distributions to us. Locust Street may make distributions to us, in turn, only to the extent permitted by the Indenture. The Indenture generally provides that distributions by Locust Street may not be made unless all amounts owing with respect to the Class A Notes have been paid in full. Race Street may make distributions to us only to the extent permitted by the JPM Facility. The JPM Facility generally provides that distributions by Race Street may not be made if the Margin Threshold has not been met or if the market value of the underlying loans held by Race Street is less than the Market Value Requirement. If we do not receive cash from Locust Street or Race Street, we may be unable to make distributions to our stockholders in amounts sufficient to maintain our qualification as a RIC, or at all. We also could be forced to sell investments in our portfolio at less than their fair value in order to continue making such distributions.

We are subject to the credit risk of JPM.

If JPM fails to sell the Class A Notes back to Race Street at the end of the applicable period, Race Street’s recourse will be limited to an unsecured claim against JPM for the difference between the value of such Class A Notes at such time and the amount that would be owing by Race Street to JPM had JPM performed under the JPM Facility. The ability of JPM to satisfy such a claim will be subject to JPM’s creditworthiness at that time.
