 Exhibit 10.5 
 EXECUTION COPY 
 REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT 

THIS REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT, (this “Agreement”) is made as of July 21, 2011, between FS
Investment Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the “Lender”), and Race Street Funding LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”). 

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS 
 WHEREAS, from time to time, the Borrower will sell certain securities (the “CLO Notes”) to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., London Branch (the “Purchaser”)
pursuant to the Global Master Repurchase Agreement and the related Confirmation, each dated as of July 21, 2011 and each among the Borrower and the Purchaser (as each may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, collectively,
the “Repurchase Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, from time to time, the Borrower will be required to deliver
cash collateral to the Purchaser to satisfy certain margining requirements under the Repurchase Agreement and the Borrower desires to borrow from the Lender the amount, if any, necessary from time to time to satisfy the Borrower’s obligation to
deliver such cash collateral; and 
 WHEREAS, the Lender may be willing to make subordinated loans to the Borrower to fund such
amounts on the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 

Section 1.01. Defined Terms. Except as otherwise specified herein or as the context may otherwise require, capitalized terms
used but not otherwise defined herein are defined in the Repurchase Agreement. In addition, the following terms have the following meanings: 
 “Event of Default” means any event of default specified in Section 5.01. 
 “LIBOR Rate” means, the rate per annum determined as of the first Business Day of each calendar month equal to the rate determined by the Lender to be the offered rate that appears
on the page of the Reuters Screen that displays an average British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rate (such page currently being LIBOR01) for deposits in United States dollars with a one-month period. The LIBOR Rate applicable to Loans
hereunder will change monthly on the first Business Day of each calendar month. 

“Loan” means each loan of funds made to the Borrower by the Lender pursuant to Section 2.01.

 “Maturity Date” means the earlier to occur of (i) the date designated as such in
writing by the Borrower and the Lender from time to time and (ii) the date this 






 
Agreement is terminated by the Lender pursuant to Section 5.02; provided, that in no event shall the Maturity Date occur prior to the date that is 90 days after the Final Repurchase
Date under the Repurchase Agreement. 
 “Scheduled Expiration Date” means the date that
is 364 days after the date hereof, which shall be automatically renewed for one or more additional, successive terms of 364 days each unless either the Borrower or the Lender sends written notice to the other party not less than 30 days prior to the
next applicable Scheduled Expiration Date of such party’s desire not to extend the Scheduled Expiration Date for an additional term. 
 “Spread” means 0.75%. 
 ARTICLE II 

Section 2.01. Loans to Borrower. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance on the representations
and warranties set forth herein, the Lender, in its sole discretion, may make Loans to the Borrower, from time to time from the date of this Agreement to but excluding the Scheduled Expiration Date, in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at
any one time not to exceed THREE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS ($300,000,000). The determination of the Lender to make a Loan will also be subject to the conditions that (and the Borrower shall not request a Loan unless) (i) no event has occurred and
is continuing, or would occur by the borrowing of the Loan, which constitutes an Event of Default or which, upon the giving of notice, the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default and (ii) the representations and warranties
contained in Section 3.01 are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of each such Loan and will continue to be true and correct in all material respects after such Loan is made. 

Section 2.02. Borrower’s Obligations. The Borrower hereby promises to pay in full the unpaid principal amount of the
Loans on the Maturity Date and any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans as more fully set forth in Section 2.04 below. The obligation of the Borrower to pay the principal of and interest on the Loans shall be absolute and
unconditional, shall be binding and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, enforceable in all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to setoff, recoupment or counterclaim; provided, however, that the Borrower shall only be
obligated to pay principal of and interest on the Loans from distributions of available funds (if any) after satisfaction of the Borrower’s payment and margin maintenance obligations under the Repurchase Agreement and, after termination of the
Repurchase Agreement, from funds of the Borrower. The Lender shall maintain on its books and records a register on which it will record each Loan made and each repayment of any Loan and interest thereon. Any such recordation by the Lender shall be
presumptively correct, absent manifest error. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. The register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 Section 2.03. Requests for Loans. Unless
otherwise agreed to by the Lender, the Borrower will give the Lender notice of a request for a Loan at least one Business Day prior to the day on which the Borrower wishes to receive the Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
if agreed to by the Lender, the Lender will make the requested Loan on the Business 

  
 2 







 
Day specified in the notice in immediately available funds in accordance with the Borrower’s payment instructions. 
 Section 2.04. Interest. (a) Interest will accrue on the average daily balance of the unpaid principal amount of the Loans, for each day from the date such Loans are made until they become
due or are paid in full, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the LIBOR Rate then in effect plus the Spread. Should any principal of, or accrued interest on, a Loan not be paid when due, such amount will bear interest from its due date
until paid in full, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the LIBOR Rate plus the Spread, then in effect, plus (ii) 200 basis points (2.00%). In no event will the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate
allowed by law. A certificate of the Lender as to determination of the LIBOR Rate, the Spread, the calculation of the interest rate therefrom and the calculation of any interest due and payable will be, absent manifest error, conclusive and binding
on the Borrower. 
 (b) Interest shall be payable on each Repurchase Date during the term of this Agreement; provided,
that if such day is not a Business Day, the payment date for such period shall be the Business Day immediately following such day (but only to the extent that the Borrower has funds for such purpose in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof) and
on the Maturity Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

Section 2.05. Repayment and Prepayment of the Loans. The outstanding principal amount of all Loans and all accrued and unpaid
interest thereon will be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. The Borrower may prepay any outstanding Loan, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty. Any amounts prepaid may be reborrowed. All payments of principal of and interest
on the Loans will be made in lawful money of the United States, in immediately available funds, to the Lender. If any such payment falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment will be due on the next following Business Day. Payments
received by the Lender will be applied: first, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, and second, to the principal of the Loans. 
 Section 2.06. Transfer Restrictions. The Lender may not transfer any interest in the Loans to persons other than affiliates of the Lender that are U.S. Persons for U.S. federal income tax
purposes. For this purpose, a “non-U.S. person” is a person other than “U.S. person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 

ARTICLE III 
 Section 3.01. Representations and Warranties. To induce the Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make Loans in its sole discretion hereunder, the Borrower represents and warrants as
follows: 
 (a) It is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing solely under the laws of
the State of Delaware and is duly qualified to do business, and is in good standing, in every jurisdiction in which the nature of its business requires it to be so qualified; 
 (b) It has full power and authority to enter into the transactions provided for in this 

  
 3 







 
Agreement and has been duly authorized to do so by all necessary and appropriate action and when executed and delivered by it, this Agreement will constitute the legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Borrower enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforcement, to (i) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights, as such laws would apply
in the event of any bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency or similar event applicable to the Borrower and (ii) general equitable principles (whether enforceability of such principles is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity);

 (c) There does not exist any default or violation by it of or under any of the terms, conditions or obligations of:
(i) its organizational documents; (ii) any material agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound; or (iii) in any material respect, any law, regulation, ruling, order, injunction, decree, condition
or other requirement applicable to or imposed upon it by any law or by any governmental authority, court or agency; and 
 (d) At
the time of (and immediately after) each Loan is made hereunder, (i) the Borrower is solvent, (ii) the Borrower’s cash on hand is sufficient to satisfy all of its current obligations (other than its obligations under this Agreement
and the Repurchase Agreement), (iii) its capitalization, including its equity, is commercially reasonable and adequate to conduct its business as presently contemplated and (iv) the financial capacity of the Borrower to meet its financial
commitments under this Agreement is adequate. 
 ARTICLE IV 

Section 4.01 Compliance with Laws. The Borrower shall comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations in all material
respects. 
 Section 4.02 Keeping of Records and Books of Account. The Borrower shall maintain and keep proper books
and records and account which enable the Borrower to prepare and issue financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and as otherwise may be required by any applicable law, rule or regulation and in which full,
true and correct entries shall be made of all of its dealings and business and financial affairs. The Borrower shall permit the Lender to examine and make excerpts from such books and records at such times and as often as the Lender may reasonably
request. The Borrower shall permit, upon the request of the Lender, an audit to be conducted of the Borrower’s financial statements and books and records. Any such audit shall be at the Borrower’s expense and shall be conducted by
independent accountants selected by the Lender. 
 Section 4.03 No Distributions. The Borrower will not make any
cash or in-kind distributions to its equity holders unless both before and after each such distribution the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.01 above would be true and correct. 

ARTICLE V 

Section 5.01 Events of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default: 

  
 4 







 (a) the Borrower fails to pay, within five Business Days after it is due and payable, any
principal of or interest on any of the Loans; provided, that for purposes of this Section 5.01(a) only, no principal or interest shall be considered due and payable on a date that is prior to the Maturity Date; or 

(b) the Borrower fails to perform or observe any other term or condition of any of this Agreement applicable to it and such event or
circumstance, if capable of being cured, is not cured within 30 days after written notice thereof is given by the Lender to the Borrower; or 
 (c) an Event of Bankruptcy occurs with respect to the Borrower. 

Section 5.02 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Lender may do any one or more of the following
(without presentment, protest or notice of protest, all of which are expressly waived by the Borrower): (i) terminate this Agreement and declare the principal of and interest on the Loans and all other sums owing by the Borrower to the Lender
under this Agreement forthwith due and payable, whereupon this Agreement will terminate and the principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all such other sums will become forthwith due and payable; and (ii) subject to Section 5.03,
exercise all rights granted pursuant to this Agreement, in such order and in such manner as the Lender may, in its sole and exclusive judgment, determine. 
 Section 5.03 Subordination. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that the Lender is deemed to have any interest in any assets of the Borrower,
the Lender agrees that all amounts outstanding hereunder and its interest in those assets are subordinate in all respects to claims or rights of the Purchaser pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement; and provided further, that notwithstanding any
rights or remedies available to the Lender under this Agreement, applicable law or otherwise, prior to the time that all secured indebtedness or other secured obligations owned by the Borrower, including the obligations of the Borrower under the
Repurchase Agreement, shall have been repaid in full, (i) the Lender shall not, directly or indirectly, seek to accelerate or enforce (judicially or non-judicially) its rights hereunder or assert any claims or interests therein (including,
without limitation, by setoff or notification of account debtors) and (ii) in the event that the Lender shall receive any payment or other distribution of any kind or character from the Borrower constituting collateral that is pledged to the
Purchaser other than funds that are not required by the Borrower at such time to satisfy its payment and/or its margin maintenance obligations under the Repurchase Agreement, such payment or other distribution shall be received in trust for the
Purchaser and shall be turned over to the Purchaser forthwith by the Lender. The Lender agrees that this Agreement constitutes a subordination agreement for purposes of Section 510(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended from time
to time (11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq.). 
 ARTICLE VI

specific purpose for which given, in each case with the prior written consent of the Purchaser. To the extent the consent of the Lender is required under this Agreement, the determination as to
