Summary

FS Investment Corporation II, or the Company, which may also be referred to as we, us or our, was
incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on July 12, 2011 and formally commenced investment operations on June 18, 2012. We are an externally managed, non-diversified,
closed-end management investment company that 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. As such, we are
required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. In addition, we have elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intend to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. As of December 31, 2016, we had total assets of approximately $5.0 billion.

We are managed by FSIC II Advisor, LLC, or FSIC II Advisor, a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or the Advisers Act, which oversees the management of our
operations and is responsible for making investment decisions with respect to our portfolio. FSIC II Advisor has engaged GSO / Blackstone Debt Funds Management LLC, or GDFM, to act as our investment
sub-adviser. GDFM assists FSIC II Advisor in identifying investment opportunities and makes investment recommendations for approval by FSIC II Advisor, according to guidelines set by FSIC II Advisor. GDFM, a
registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act, is a wholly owned subsidiary of GSO Capital Partners LP, or GSO. GSO is the credit platform of The Blackstone Group L.P., or Blackstone, 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 $93.3 billion in assets under management as of December 31, 2016.

Our investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We seek to meet our
investment objectives by:



| |  |  | utilizing the experience and expertise of the management teams of FSIC II Advisor and GDFM, along with the broader resources of GSO, which include its
access to the relationships and human capital of its parent, Blackstone, in sourcing, evaluating and structuring transactions;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | employing a defensive investment approach focused on long-term credit performance and principal protection;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | focusing primarily on debt investments in a broad array of private U.S. companies, including middle market companies, which we define as companies with
annual revenues of $50 million to $2.5 billion at the time of investment. In many market environments, we believe such a focus offers an opportunity for superior risk adjusted returns;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | investing primarily in established, stable enterprises with positive cash flows; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | maintaining rigorous portfolio monitoring in an attempt to anticipate and pre-empt negative credit events
within our portfolio.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in senior secured loans and
second lien secured loans of private middle market U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans of private U.S. companies. Although we do not expect a significant portion of our portfolio to be comprised of subordinated loans, there is
no limit on the amount of such loans in which we may invest. We may purchase interests in loans or make other

##### Table of Contents

debt investments, including investments in senior secured bonds, through secondary market transactions in the
over-the-counter market or directly from our target companies as primary market or directly originated investments. 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 or otherwise acquire minority interests in the form of common or preferred equity or equity-related securities, such as rights
and warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock or other equity or the cash value of common stock or other equity, in our target companies, generally in conjunction with one of our debt investments or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm. In addition, a portion of our portfolio may be comprised of corporate bonds, collateralized loan obligations, or
CLOs, other debt securities and derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps. FSIC II Advisor will seek to tailor our investment focus as market conditions evolve. Depending on market conditions, we may increase or decrease our
exposure to less senior portions of the capital structure or otherwise make opportunistic investments.

The senior secured
loans, second lien secured loans and senior secured bonds in which we invest generally have stated terms of three to seven years and subordinated debt investments that we make 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. Our debt investments may be rated by a nationally recognized statistical rating
organization, or NRSRO, and, in such case, 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 Ratings Services, or S&P). We also invest in non-rated debt securities.

To seek to enhance our returns, we employ leverage as market conditions permit and at the discretion of FSIC II Advisor, but in no event
will leverage employed exceed 50% of the value of our assets, as required by the 1940 Act.

During the year ended
December 31, 2016, we made investments in portfolio companies totaling $1,413,343. During the same period, we sold investments for proceeds of $510,114 and received principal repayments of $1,143,641. As of December 31, 2016, our
investment portfolio, with a total fair value of $4,497,395 (64% in first lien senior secured loans, 16% in second lien senior secured loans, 3% in senior secured bonds, 9% in subordinated debt, 1% in collateralized securities and 7% in
equity/other), consisted of interests in 138 portfolio companies. The portfolio companies that comprised our portfolio as of such date had an average annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, of approximately
$125.0 million. As of December 31, 2016, the debt investments in our portfolio were purchased at a weighted average price of 97.5% of par, and our estimated gross portfolio yield (which represents the expected annualized yield to be
generated by us on our portfolio based on the composition of our portfolio as of such date), prior to leverage, was 9.4% based upon the amortized cost of our investments. For the year ended December 31, 2016, our total return was 16.07% and our
total return without assuming reinvestment of distributions was 15.29%.

Based on our regular monthly cash distribution amount
of $0.06283 per share as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and our final public offering price of $10.60 per share, the annualized distribution rate to stockholders as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 was 7.11%. Based on our regular monthly cash
distribution amount of $0.06283 per share as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and our distribution reinvestment price of $8.95 as of December 31, 2016 and $8.90 as of December 31, 2015, the annualized distribution rate to stockholders as
of December 31, 2016 and 2015 was 8.42% and 8.47%, respectively. The annualized distribution rate to stockholders, in each case, is expressed as a percentage equal to the projected annualized distribution amount per share (which is calculated
by annualizing the regular monthly cash distribution per share as of the dates indicated above without compounding), divided by our final public offering price per share or our distribution reinvestment price, as applicable as of the dates indicated
above.

##### Table of Contents

Our estimated gross portfolio yield may be higher than an investors yield on an
investment in shares of our common stock. Our estimated gross portfolio yield does not reflect operating expenses that may be incurred by us. In addition, our estimated gross portfolio yield and total return figures disclosed above do not consider
the effect of any sales commissions or charges that may have been incurred in connection with the sale of shares of our common stock. Our estimated gross portfolio yield, total return and annualized distribution rate to stockholders do not represent
actual investment returns to stockholders, are subject to change and, in the future, may be greater or less than the rates set forth above. See Item 1A. Risk Factors for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated
with these statements. See footnote 4 to the table included in Item 6. Selected Financial Data for information regarding the calculation of our total return.

As a BDC, we are subject to certain regulatory restrictions in making our investments. For example, BDCs generally are not permitted to co-invest with certain
affiliated entities in transactions originated by the BDC or its affiliates in the absence of an exemptive order from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. However, BDCs are permitted to, and may, simultaneously co-invest in transactions where price is the only negotiated term. In an order dated June 4, 2013, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting us, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with certain affiliates of FSIC II Advisor, including FS Investment Corporation, FS Energy and Power Fund, FS Investment Corporation III, FS
Investment Corporation IV and any future BDCs that are advised by FSIC II Advisor or its affiliated investment advisers, or, collectively, our co-investment affiliates. We believe this relief has and may
continue to enhance our ability to further our investment objectives and strategy. We believe this relief may also increase favorable investment opportunities for us, in part, by allowing us to participate in larger investments, together with our co-investment affiliates, than would be available to us if such relief had not been obtained. Because we did not seek exemptive relief to engage in co-investment transactions
with GDFM and its affiliates, we are permitted to co-invest with GDFM and its affiliates only in accordance with existing regulatory guidance (e.g., where price is the only negotiated term).

While a BDC may list its shares for trading in the public markets, we have currently elected not to do so. We believe that a non-traded structure is more appropriate for the long-term nature of the assets in which we invest. This structure allows us to operate with a long-term view, similar to that of other types of private investment
funds, instead of managing to quarterly market expectations. Furthermore, while our distribution reinvestment and share repurchase prices are subject to adjustment in accordance with the 1940 Act and our pricing policy, because our shares of common
stock are not currently listed on a national securities exchange, our stockholders are not subject to the daily share price volatility associated with the public markets. However, the net asset value of our shares of common stock may still be
volatile.

Public Offering of Shares

In March 2014, we closed our continuous public offering of shares of common stock to new investors. We sold 302,266,066 shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of $3,112,692 in our continuous public
offering.

Share Repurchase Program

To provide our stockholders with limited liquidity, we intend to continue to conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to our share repurchase program. During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015
and 2014, we repurchased 10,698,480, 4,081,651 and 1,735,154 shares at an average price per share of $8.58, $9.32 and $9.60, respectively, for aggregate consideration totaling $91,792, $38,034 and $16,665, respectively. On January 4, 2017, we
repurchased 2,340,048 shares at $8.950 per share for aggregate consideration totaling $20,943.

We currently intend to limit
the number of shares of common stock to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares of common stock we can repurchase with the proceeds we receive from the issuance of shares of our common stock under our distribution
reinvestment plan. At the discretion of our board of

directors, we may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from the liquidation of securities investments as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares of
common stock. In addition, we 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 we offer to repurchase may be less in light of the limitations noted above.

Under our share repurchase program, we intend to offer to repurchase shares of common stock on each date of repurchase at a price equal to the price at which shares of common stock are issued pursuant to
our distribution reinvestment plan on the distribution date coinciding with the applicable share repurchase date. The price of shares of common stock issued under our distribution reinvestment plan is determined by our 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 our common stock as determined in good faith by our board of directors or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, immediately prior
to the payment date of the distribution and (ii) not more than 2.5% greater than the net asset value per share as of such date. Our board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program at any time upon 30 days
notice.

Distributions

Subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of our board of directors, we intend to declare regular cash distributions on a quarterly basis and pay such distributions on a monthly
basis. 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. 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.

The following table reflects the cash
distributions per share that we have declared and paid on our common stock during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014:

On November 3, 2016 and March 14, 2017, our board of directors declared regular monthly cash
distributions for January 2017 through March 2017 and April 2017 through June 2017, respectively, each in the amount of $0.06283 per share. These distributions have been or will be paid monthly to stockholders of record as of the monthly record
dates previously determined by our board of directors.

Market Opportunity

We believe that there are and will continue to be significant investment opportunities in the senior secured and second lien secured loan
asset class, as well as investments in debt securities of middle market companies.

Attractive Opportunities in Senior Secured and Second Lien Secured Loans

We believe that opportunities in senior secured and second lien secured loans are significant because of the variable
rate structure of most senior secured debt issues and because of the strong defensive characteristics of this investment class. Given current market conditions, we believe that debt issues with variable interest rates often offer a superior return
profile to fixed-rate securities, since variable interest rate structures are generally less susceptible to declines in value experienced by fixed-rate securities in a rising interest rate environment.

Senior secured debt also provides strong defensive characteristics. Because this debt has priority in payment among an issuers
security holders (i.e., holders are due to receive payment before junior creditors and equityholders), they carry the least potential risk among investments in the issuers capital structure. Further, these investments are secured by the
issuers assets, which may be seized in the event of a default, if necessary. They generally also carry restrictive covenants aimed at ensuring repayment before junior creditors, such as most types of unsecured bondholders, and other security
holders and preserving collateral to protect against credit deterioration.

The chart below illustrates examples of the
collateral used to secure senior secured and second lien secured debt.

Opportunity in Middle Market
Private Companies

In addition to investing in senior secured and second lien secured loans generally, we believe that
the market for lending to private companies, particularly middle market private companies within the United States, is underserved and presents a compelling investment opportunity. We believe that the following characteristics support our belief:

Large Target Market

According to The U.S. Census Bureau, in its 2012 economic census, there were approximately 42,600 middle market companies in the United States with annual revenues between $50 million and
$2.5 billion, compared with approximately 1,350 companies with revenues greater than $2.5 billion. These middle market companies represent, we believe, a significant portion of the growth segment of the U.S. economy and often require
substantial capital investment to grow their businesses. Middle market companies have generated a



7



---

##### Table of Contents

significant number of investment opportunities for us and investment programs managed by our affiliates and GDFM over the past several years, and we believe that this market segment will continue
to produce significant investment opportunities for us.

Limited Investment Competition

Despite the size of the market, we believe that regulatory changes and other factors have diminished the role of traditional financial
institutions and certain other capital providers in providing financing to middle market companies. As tracked by S&P Capital IQ LCD, U.S. banks share of senior secured loans to middle market companies represented 6% of overall middle
market loan volume in 2016, down slightly from 7% in 2015 and down from nearly 20% in 2011. However, the continuation of this trend is uncertain as a result of the potentially changing regulatory landscape due to the new presidential administration.

In addition, regulatory uncertainty regarding CLOs may limit financing available to middle market companies. Risk retention
and certain limitations placed on some banks ability to hold CLO securities may also inhibit future CLO creation and future lending to middle market companies. CLOs represented 62.3% of the institutional investor base for broadly syndicated
loans in 2016, as tracked by S&P Capital IQ LCD, and any decline in the formation of new CLOs will likely have broad implications for the senior secured loan marketplace and for middle market borrowers.

We also believe that lending and originating new loans to middle market companies, which are often private, generally requires a greater
dedication of the lenders time and resources compared to lending to larger companies, due in part to the smaller size of each investment and the often fragmented nature of information available from these companies. Further, many investment
firms lack the breadth and scale necessary to identify investment opportunities, particularly in regards to directly originated investments in middle market companies, and thus we believe that attractive investment opportunities are often
overlooked. In addition, middle market companies may require more active monitoring and participation on the lenders part. We believe that many large financial organizations, which often have relatively high cost structures, are not suited to
deal with these factors and instead emphasize services and transactions to larger corporate clients with a consequent reduction in the availability of financing to middle market companies.

Attractive Market Segment

We believe that the underserved nature of such a large segment of the market can at times create a significant opportunity for investment. In many environments, we believe that middle market companies are
more likely to offer attractive economics in terms of transaction pricing, up-front and ongoing fees, prepayment penalties and security features in the form of stricter covenants and quality collateral than
loans to larger companies. In addition, as compared to larger companies, middle market companies often have simpler capital structures and carry less leverage, thus aiding the structuring and negotiation process and allowing us greater flexibility
in structuring favorable transactions. We believe that these factors will result in advantageous conditions in which to pursue our investment objectives of generating current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation.

Characteristics of and Risks Related to Investments in Private Companies

We invest primarily in the debt of private middle market U.S. companies. Investments in private companies pose significantly greater risks
than investments in public companies. First, private companies have reduced access to the capital markets, resulting in diminished capital resources and ability to withstand financial distress. As a result, these companies, which may present greater
credit risk than public companies, may be unable to meet the obligations under their debt securities that we hold. Second, the investments themselves may often be illiquid. The securities of most of the companies in which we invest are not
publicly-traded or actively-traded on the secondary market and are, instead, traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter secondary market for



8

##### Table of Contents

institutional investors. In addition, our directly originated investments generally will not be traded on any secondary market and a trading market for such investments may not develop. These
securities may also be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale. As such, we may have difficulty exiting an investment promptly or at a desired price prior to maturity or outside of a normal amortization schedule. These investments may also
be difficult to value because little public information generally exists about private companies, requiring an experienced due diligence team to analyze and value the potential portfolio company. Finally, these companies often may not have
third-party debt ratings or audited financial statements. We must therefore rely on the ability of FSIC II Advisor and/or GDFM to obtain adequate information through their due diligence efforts to evaluate the creditworthiness of, and risks involved
in, investing in these companies, and to determine the optimal time to exit an investment. These companies and their financial information will also generally not be subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and other
rules and regulations that govern public companies that are designed to protect investors.

Investment Strategy

Our principal focus is to invest in senior secured and second lien secured loans of private middle market U.S. companies, and to a lesser
extent, subordinated loans of private U.S. companies. Although we do not expect a significant portion of our portfolio to be comprised of subordinated loans, there is no limit on the amount of such loans in which we may invest. We may purchase
interests in loans or make other debt investments, including investments in senior secured bonds, through secondary market transactions in the
over-the-counter market or directly from our target companies as primary market or directly originated investments. 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 or otherwise acquire minority interests in the form of common or preferred equity or equity-related securities, such as rights
and warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock or other equity or the cash value of common stock or other equity, in our target companies, generally in conjunction with one of our debt investments or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm. In addition, a portion of our portfolio may be comprised of corporate bonds, CLOs, other debt securities and
derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps. FSIC II Advisor will seek to tailor our investment focus as market conditions evolve. Depending on market conditions, we may increase or decrease our exposure to less senior
portions of the capital structure or otherwise make opportunistic investments.

When identifying prospective portfolio
companies, we focus primarily on the attributes set forth below, which we believe will help us generate higher total returns with an acceptable level of risk. While these criteria provide general guidelines for our investment decisions, we caution
investors that, if we believe the benefits of investing are sufficiently strong, not all of these criteria necessarily will be met by each prospective portfolio company in which we choose to invest. These attributes are:



| |  |  | Leading, defensible market positions. We seek to invest in companies that have developed strong positions within their respective markets and
exhibit the potential to maintain sufficient cash flows and profitability to service our debt in a range of economic environments. We seek companies that can protect their competitive advantages through scale, scope, customer loyalty, product
pricing or product quality versus their competitors, thereby minimizing business risk and protecting profitability.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Investing in stable companies with positive cash flow. We seek to invest in established, stable companies with strong profitability and cash
flows. Such companies, we believe, are well-positioned to maintain consistent cash flow to service and repay our loans and maintain growth in their businesses or market share. We do not intend to invest to any significant degree in start-up companies, turnaround situations or companies with speculative business plans.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Proven management teams. We focus on companies that have experienced management teams with an established track record of success. We typically
prefer our portfolio companies to have proper incentives in place, which may include non-cash and performance-based compensation, to align managements goals with ours.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | Private equity sponsorship. Often, we seek to participate in transactions sponsored by what we believe to be sophisticated and seasoned private
equity firms. FSIC II Advisors management team believes that a private equity sponsors willingness to invest significant sums of equity capital into a company is an endorsement of the quality of the investment. Further, by co-investing with such experienced private equity firms which commit significant sums of equity capital ranking junior in priority of payment to our debt investments, we may benefit from the due diligence review
performed by the private equity firm, in addition to our own due diligence review. Further, strong private equity sponsors with significant investments at risk have the ability and a strong incentive to contribute additional capital in difficult
economic times should operational or financial issues arise, which could provide additional protections for our investments.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Allocation among various issuers and industries. We seek to allocate our portfolio broadly among issuers and industries, thereby attempting to
reduce the risk of a downturn in any one company or industry having a disproportionate adverse impact on the value of our portfolio.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Viable exit strategy. While we attempt to invest in securities that may be sold in a privately negotiated over-the-counter market, providing us a means by which we may exit our positions, we expect that a large portion of our portfolio may not be sold on this secondary market. For any investments that are not
able to be sold within this market, we focus primarily on investing in companies whose business models and growth prospects offer attractive exit possibilities, including repayment of our investments, an initial public offering of equity securities,
a merger, a sale or a recapitalization, in each case with the potential for capital gains.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, in
an order dated June 4, 2013, the SEC granted exemptive relief that, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, expands our ability to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment
transactions with our co-investment affiliates, which we believe has and may continue to enhance our ability to further our investment objectives and strategy.

Potential Competitive Strengths

We believe that we offer investors the following potential competitive strengths:

Global platform with seasoned investment professionals

We believe that the breadth and depth of the experience of FSIC II Advisors senior management team, together with the wider
resources of GSOs investment team, which is dedicated to sourcing, structuring, executing, monitoring and harvesting a broad range of private investments, as well as the specific expertise of GDFM, provide us with a significant competitive
advantage in sourcing and analyzing attractive investment opportunities.

Long-term investment horizon

Our long-term investment horizon gives us great flexibility, which we believe allows us to maximize returns on our
investments. Unlike most private equity and venture capital funds, as well as many private debt funds, we are not required to return capital to our stockholders once we exit a portfolio investment. We believe that freedom from such capital return
requirements, which allows us to invest using a longer-term focus, provides us with the opportunity to increase total returns on invested capital, compared to other private company investment vehicles.

GDFM transaction sourcing capability

FSIC II Advisor seeks to leverage GDFMs significant access to transaction flow. GDFM seeks to generate investment opportunities through syndicate and club deals (generally, investments made by a
small group of



10



---

##### Table of Contents

investment firms) and, subject to regulatory constraints as discussed under Regulation, and the allocation policies of GDFM and its affiliates, as applicable, also through
GSOs direct origination channels. GDFM also relies on its relationships with private equity sponsors, investment banks and commercial banks to source investment opportunities. These include significant contacts to participants in the credit
and leveraged finance marketplace, which it can draw upon in sourcing investment opportunities for us. With respect to syndicate and club deals, GDFM has built a network of relationships with commercial and investment banks, finance companies and
other investment funds as a result of the long track record of its investment professionals in the leveraged finance marketplace. With respect to GDFMs origination channel, FSIC II Advisor seeks to leverage the global presence of GSO to
generate access to a substantial amount of directly originated transactions with attractive investment characteristics. We believe that the broad network of GDFM provides a significant pipeline of investment opportunities for us. GDFM also has a
significant trading platform, which, we believe, allows us access to the secondary market for investment opportunities.

Disciplined, income-oriented investment philosophy

FSIC II Advisor and GDFM employ a defensive investment approach focused on long-term credit performance and principal protection. This investment approach involves a multi-stage selection process for each
investment opportunity, as well as ongoing monitoring of each investment made, with particular emphasis on early detection of deteriorating credit conditions at portfolio companies which would result in adverse portfolio developments. This strategy
is designed to maximize current income and minimize the risk of capital loss while maintaining the potential for long-term capital appreciation.

Investment expertise across all levels of the corporate capital structure

FSIC II Advisor and GDFM believe that their broad expertise and experience investing at all levels of a companys capital structure enable us to manage risk while affording us the opportunity for
significant returns on our investments. We attempt to capitalize on this expertise in an effort to produce and maintain an investment portfolio that will perform in a broad range of economic conditions.

Operating and Regulatory Structure

Our investment activities are managed by FSIC II Advisor and supervised by our board of directors, a majority of whom are independent. Under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement,
we have agreed to pay FSIC II Advisor an annual base management fee based on the average value of our gross assets and an incentive fee based on our performance. See Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of OperationsContractual Obligations for a description of the fees we pay to FSIC II Advisor.

From time
to time, FSIC II Advisor may enter into sub-advisory relationships with registered investment advisers that possess skills or attributes that FSIC II Advisor believes will aid it in achieving our investment
objectives. FSIC II Advisor has engaged GDFM to act as our investment sub-adviser. GDFM assists FSIC II Advisor in identifying investment opportunities and makes investment recommendations for approval by FSIC
II Advisor according to guidelines set by FSIC II Advisor.

FSIC II Advisor oversees our day-to-day operations, including the provision of general ledger accounting, fund accounting, legal services, investor relations and other administrative services. FSIC II Advisor also performs, or oversees
the performance of, our corporate operations and required administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports for our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC.
In addition, FSIC II Advisor assists us in calculating our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of our expenses
and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others.

II Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to our administration and operations, including FSIC II Advisors allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel of FS Investments providing
administrative services to us on behalf of FSIC II Advisor. The amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (1) FSIC II 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. FSIC II Advisor allocates the cost of such services to us based on factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other
reasonable metrics. Our board of directors reviews the methodology employed in determining how the expenses are allocated to us and the proposed allocation of administrative expenses among us and certain affiliates of FSIC II Advisor. Our board of
directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements for expenses allocated to us 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 service
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 FSIC II 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 FSIC II 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 FSIC II Advisor.

We have contracted with State Street Bank and Trust Company, or State Street, to provide various accounting and administrative services, including, but not limited to, preparing preliminary financial
information for review by FSIC II Advisor, preparing and monitoring expense budgets, maintaining accounting and corporate books and records, processing trade information provided by us and performing testing with respect to RIC compliance. Prior to
April 1, 2015, we had contracted with Vigilant Compliance, LLC to provide the services of Salvatore Faia as our chief compliance officer.

As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. Also, while we are permitted to finance investments using debt, our ability to use debt will be limited in certain significant
respects pursuant to the 1940 Act. Within the limits of existing regulation, we will adjust our use of debt, according to market conditions, to the level we believe will allow us to generate maximum risk-adjusted returns. See
Regulation. We have elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

Investment Types

Our portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in
senior secured loans and second lien secured loans of private middle market U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans of private U.S. companies. Although we do not expect a significant portion of our portfolio to be comprised of
subordinated loans, there is no limit on the amount of such loans in which we may invest. We may purchase interests in loans or make other debt investments, including investments in senior secured bonds, through secondary market transactions in the over-the-counter market or directly from our target companies as primary market or directly originated investments. 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 or otherwise acquire minority interests in the form of common or preferred equity or equity-related securities, such as rights and
warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock or other equity or the cash value of common stock or other equity, in our target companies, generally in conjunction with one of our debt investments or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm. In addition, a portion of our portfolio may be comprised of corporate bonds, CLOs, other debt securities and
derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps. FSIC II Advisor will seek to tailor our investment focus as market conditions evolve. Depending on market conditions, we may increase or decrease our exposure to less senior
portions of the capital structure, where returns tend to be stronger in a more stable or growing economy, but less secure in weak economic environments. Below is a diagram illustrating where these investments lie in a

typical portfolio companys capital structure. Senior secured debt is situated at the top of the capital structure and typically has the first claim on the assets and cash flows of the
company, followed by second lien secured debt, subordinated debt, preferred equity and, finally, common equity. Due to this priority of cash flows, an investments risk increases as it moves further down the capital structure. Investors are
usually compensated for this risk associated with junior status in the form of higher returns, either through higher interest payments or potentially higher capital appreciation. We rely on FSIC II Advisors and GDFMs experience to
structure investments, possibly using all levels of the capital structure, which we believe will perform in a broad range of economic environments.

Typical Leveraged Capital Structure Diagram

Senior Secured Loans

Senior secured loans are situated at the top of the capital structure. Because these loans generally have priority in payment, they carry
the least risk among all investments in a firm. Generally, our senior secured loans are expected to have maturities of three to seven years, offer some form of amortization and have first priority security interests in the assets of the borrower.
Generally, we expect that the interest rate on our senior secured loans typically will have variable rates ranging between 6.0% and 10.0% over a standard benchmark, such as the prime rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR.

Second Lien Secured Loans

Second lien secured loans are immediately junior to senior secured loans and have substantially the same maturities, collateral and covenant structures as senior secured loans. Second lien secured loans,
however, are granted a second priority security interest in the assets of the borrower, which means that any realization of collateral will generally be applied to pay senior secured loans in full before second lien secured loans are paid and the
value of the collateral may not be sufficient to repay in full both senior secured loans and second lien secured loans. In return for this junior ranking, second lien secured loans generally offer higher returns compared to senior secured debt.
These higher returns come in the form of higher interest and in some cases the potential for equity participation through warrants, though to a lesser extent than with subordinated loans. Generally, we



13



---

##### Table of Contents

expect these loans to carry a fixed rate, or a floating current yield of 8.0% to 12.0% over a standard benchmark. In addition, we may receive additional returns from any warrants we may receive
in connection with these investments.

Senior Secured Bonds

Senior secured bonds are generally secured by collateral on a senior, pari passu or junior basis with other debt instruments in an
issuers capital structure and have similar maturities and covenant structures as senior secured loans. Generally, we expect these investments to carry a fixed rate of 7.0% to 14.0%.

Subordinated Debt

In addition to senior secured loans, second lien secured loans, and senior secured bonds, we may invest a portion of our assets in subordinated debt. Subordinated debt investments usually rank junior in
priority of payment to senior debt and are often unsecured, but are situated above preferred equity and common equity in the capital structure. In return for their junior status compared to senior debt, subordinated debt investments typically offer
higher returns through both higher interest rates and possible equity ownership in the form of warrants, enabling the lender to participate in the capital appreciation of the borrower. These warrants typically require only a nominal cost to
exercise. We generally target subordinated debt with interest-only payments throughout the life of the security, with the principal due at maturity. Typically, subordinated debt investments have maturities of five to ten years. Generally, we expect
these securities to carry a fixed rate, or a floating current yield of 7.0% to 14.0% over a standard benchmark. In addition, we may receive additional returns from any warrants we may receive in connection with these investments. In some cases, a
portion of the total interest may accrue or be paid-in-kind, or PIK.

Equity and Equity-Related Securities

While we intend to maintain
our focus on investments in debt securities, from time to time, when we see the potential for extraordinary gain, or in connection with securing particularly favorable terms in a debt investment, we may enter into investments in preferred or common
equity, typically in conjunction with a private equity sponsor we believe to be sophisticated and seasoned. In addition, we typically receive the right to make equity investments in a portfolio company whose debt securities we hold in connection
with the next equity financing round for that company. This right may provide us with the opportunity to further enhance our returns over time through equity investments in our portfolio companies. In addition, we may hold equity-related securities,
such as rights and warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock or other equity or the cash value of common stock or other equity, generally obtained in conjunction with one of our debt investments or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm. In the future, we may achieve liquidity through a merger or acquisition of a portfolio company, a public offering of
a portfolio companys stock or by exercising our right, if any, to require a portfolio company to repurchase the equity-related securities we hold. With respect to any preferred or common equity investments, we expect to target an annual
investment return of at least 15%.

Non-U.S. Securities

We may invest in non-U.S. securities, which may include securities denominated in U.S. dollars or
in non-U.S. currencies, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act.

Collateralized
Loan Obligations

We may invest in CLOs, which are a form of securitization where payments from multiple loans are
pooled together. Investors may purchase one or more tranches of a CLO and each tranche typically reflects a different level of seniority in payment from the CLO.



14

##### Table of Contents

Other Securities

We may also invest from time to time in derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps. We anticipate that any use of
derivatives would primarily be as a substitute for investing in conventional securities.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We may maintain a certain level of cash or equivalent instruments, including money market funds, to make follow-on investments, if necessary, in existing portfolio companies or to take advantage of new opportunities.

Comparison of Targeted Debt Investments to Corporate Bonds

Loans to
private companies are debt instruments that can be compared to corporate bonds to aid an investors understanding. As with corporate bonds, loans to private companies can range in credit quality depending on security-specific factors, including
total leverage, amount of leverage senior to the security in question, variability in the issuers cash flows, the quality of assets securing debt and the degree to which such assets cover the subject companys debt obligations. As is the
case in the corporate bond market, we will require greater returns for securities that we perceive to carry increased risk. The companies in which we invest may be leveraged, often as a result of leveraged buyouts or other recapitalization
transactions, and, in many cases, will not be rated by national rating agencies. When our targeted debt investments do carry ratings from a NRSRO, we believe that such ratings generally will be below investment grade (rated lower than
Baa3 by Moodys or lower than BBB- by S&P). To the extent we make unrated investments, we believe that such investments would likely receive similar ratings if they were to be
examined by a NRSRO. Compared to below-investment grade corporate bonds that are typically available to the public, our targeted senior secured and second lien secured loan investments are higher in the capital structure, have priority in receiving
payment, are secured by the issuers assets, allow the lender to seize collateral if necessary, and generally exhibit higher rates of recovery in the event of default. Corporate bonds, on the other hand, are often unsecured obligations of the
issuer.

The market for loans to private companies possesses several key differences compared to the corporate bond market.
For instance, due to a possible lack of debt ratings for certain middle market firms, and also due to the reduced availability of information for private companies, investors must conduct extensive due diligence investigations before committing to
an investment. This intensive due diligence process gives the investor significant access to management, which is often not possible in the case of corporate bondholders, who rely on underwriters, debt rating agencies and publicly available
information for due diligence reviews and monitoring of corporate issuers. While holding these investments, private debt investors often receive monthly or quarterly updates on the portfolio companys financial performance, along with possible
representation on the companys board of directors, which allows the investor to take remedial action quickly if conditions happen to deteriorate. Due to reduced liquidity, the relative scarcity of capital and extensive due diligence and
expertise required on the part of the investor, we believe that private debt securities typically offer higher returns than corporate bonds of equivalent credit quality.

Sources of Income

The primary means through which our stockholders will
receive a return of value is through interest income, dividends and capital gains generated by our investments. In addition to these sources of income, we may receive fees paid by our portfolio companies, including
one-time closing fees paid at the time each investment is made. Closing fees typically range from 1.0% to 2.0% of the purchase price of an investment. In addition, we may generate revenues in the form of non-recurring commitment, origination, structuring or diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, consulting fees and performance-based fees.

Risk Management

We seek to limit the downside potential of our investment portfolio by:



| |  |  | applying our investment strategy guidelines for portfolio investments;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | requiring a total return on investments (including both interest and potential appreciation) that adequately compensates us for credit risk;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | allocating our portfolio among various issuers and industries, size permitting, with an adequate number of companies, across different industries, with
different types of collateral; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | negotiating or seeking debt investments with covenants or features that protect us while affording portfolio companies flexibility in managing their
businesses consistent with preservation of capital, which may include affirmative and negative covenants, default penalties, lien protection, change of control provisions and board rights.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We may also enter into interest rate hedging transactions at the sole discretion of FSIC II Advisor. Such transactions will enable us to
selectively modify interest rate exposure as market conditions dictate.

Affirmative Covenants

Affirmative covenants require borrowers to take actions that are meant to ensure the solvency of the company, facilitate the lenders
monitoring of the borrower, and ensure payment of interest and loan principal due to lenders. Examples of affirmative covenants include covenants requiring the borrower to maintain adequate insurance, accounting and tax records, and to produce
frequent financial reports for the benefit of the lender.

Negative Covenants

Negative covenants impose restrictions on the borrower and are meant to protect lenders from actions that the borrower may take that could
harm the credit quality of the lenders investments. Examples of negative covenants include restrictions on the payment of dividends and restrictions on the issuance of additional debt without the lenders approval. In addition, certain
covenants restrict a borrowers activities by requiring it to meet certain earnings interest coverage ratio and leverage ratio requirements. These covenants are also referred to as financial or maintenance covenants.

Investment Process

The
investment professionals employed by FSIC II Advisor and GDFM have spent their careers developing the resources necessary to invest in private companies. Our transaction process is highlighted below.

Our Transaction Process

Sourcing

In order to source transactions, FSIC II Advisor seeks to leverage GDFMs significant access to transaction flow, along with GDFMs trading platform. GDFM seeks to generate investment
opportunities through its trading platform, through syndicate and club deals, through relationships with investment banks, which may be exclusive

##### Table of Contents

to GDFM, and, subject to regulatory constraints and the allocation policies of GDFM and its affiliates, as applicable, through GSOs direct origination channels. With respect to syndicate
and club deals, GDFM has built a network of relationships with commercial and investment banks, finance companies and other investment funds as a result of the long track record of its investment professionals in the leveraged finance marketplace.
GDFM may compensate certain brokers or other financial services firms out of its own profits or revenues for services provided in connection with the identification of appropriate investment opportunities. With respect to GDFMs origination
channel, FSIC II Advisor seeks to leverage the global presence of GSO to generate access to a substantial amount of directly originated transactions with attractive investment characteristics. We believe that the broad network of GDFM provides a
significant pipeline of investment opportunities for us.

Evaluation

Initial Review. In its initial review of an investment opportunity to present to FSIC II Advisor, GDFMs transaction team
examines information furnished by the target company and external sources, including rating agencies, if applicable, to determine whether the investment meets our basic investment criteria and other guidelines specified by FSIC II Advisor, within
the context of proper allocation of our portfolio among various issuers and industries, and offers an acceptable probability of attractive returns with identifiable downside risk. For the majority of securities available on the secondary market, a
comprehensive analysis is conducted and continuously maintained by a dedicated GDFM research analyst, the results of which are available for the transaction team to review. In the case of a directly originated transaction, FSIC II Advisor and GDFM
conduct detailed due diligence investigations as necessary.

Credit Analysis/Due Diligence.Before undertaking an
investment, the transaction teams from FSIC II Advisor and GDFM conduct a thorough due diligence review of the opportunity to ensure the company fits our investment strategy, which may include:



| |  |  | a full operational analysis to identify the key risks and opportunities of the targets business, including a detailed review of historical and
projected financial results;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a detailed analysis of industry dynamics, competitive position, regulatory, tax and legal matters;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | on-site visits, if deemed necessary;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | background checks to further evaluate management and other key personnel;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a review by legal and accounting professionals, environmental or other industry consultants, if necessary;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | financial sponsor due diligence, including portfolio company and lender reference checks, if necessary; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a review of managements experience and track record.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------

When possible, our advisory team seeks to structure transactions in such a way that our target companies are required to bear the costs of due diligence, including those costs related to any outside
consulting work we may require.

Execution

Recommendation.FSIC II Advisor has engaged GDFM to identify and recommend investment opportunities for its approval. GDFM seeks to
maintain a defensive approach toward its investment recommendations by emphasizing risk control in its transaction process, which includes (i) the pre-review of each opportunity by one of its portfolio
managers to assess the general quality, value and fit relative to our portfolio, (ii) where possible, transaction structuring with a focus on preservation of capital in varying economic environments and (iii) ultimate approval of
investment recommendations by GDFMs investment committee.

##### Table of Contents

Approval.After completing its internal transaction process, GDFM makes formal
recommendations for review and approval by FSIC II Advisor. In connection with its recommendation, it transmits any relevant underwriting material and other information pertinent to the decision-making process. In addition, GDFM makes its staff
available to answer inquiries by FSIC II Advisor in connection with its recommendations. The consummation of a transaction requires unanimous approval of the members of FSIC II Advisors investment committee.

Monitoring

Portfolio Monitoring.FSIC II Advisor, with the help of GDFM, monitors our portfolio with a focus toward anticipating negative credit events. To maintain portfolio company performance and help to
ensure a successful exit, FSIC II Advisor and GDFM work closely with, as applicable, the lead equity sponsor, loan syndicator, portfolio company management, consultants, advisers and other security holders to discuss financial position, compliance
with covenants, financial requirements and execution of the companys business plan. In addition, depending on the size, nature and performance of the transaction, we may occupy a seat or serve as an observer on a portfolio companys board
of directors or similar governing body.

Typically, FSIC II Advisor and GDFM receive financial reports detailing
operating performance, sales volumes, margins, cash flows, financial position and other key operating metrics on a quarterly basis from our portfolio companies. FSIC II Advisor and GDFM use this data, combined with due diligence gained through
contact with the companys customers, suppliers, competitors, market research and other methods, to conduct an ongoing, rigorous assessment of the companys operating performance and prospects. GDFM may rely on brokers or other financial
services firms that may help identify potential investments from time to time for assistance in monitoring those investments.

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

FSIC II Advisor monitors and, when appropriate, changes the investment ratings assigned to each
investment in our portfolio. In connection with valuing our assets, our board of directors reviews these investment ratings on a quarterly basis. In the event that our advisory team determines that an investment is underperforming, or circumstances
suggest that the risk associated with a particular investment has significantly increased, FSIC II Advisor will attempt to sell the asset in the secondary market, if applicable, or to implement a plan to attempt to exit the investment or to correct
the situation.

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.

Valuation Process. Each quarter, we value investments in our portfolio, and such values are
disclosed each quarter in reports filed with the SEC. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are recorded at such market quotations. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, our board
of directors determines the fair value of such investments in good faith, utilizing the input of our valuation committee, FSIC II Advisor and any other professionals or materials that our board of directors deems relevant, including GDFM,
independent third-party pricing services and independent third-party valuation services, if applicable. See Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsCritical Accounting
PoliciesValuation of Portfolio Investments.

Managerial Assistance. As a BDC, we must offer, and provide
upon request, managerial assistance to certain of our portfolio companies. This assistance could involve, among other things, monitoring the operations of our portfolio companies, participating in board and management meetings, consulting with and
advising officers of portfolio companies and providing other organizational and financial guidance. Depending on the nature of the assistance required, FSIC II Advisor or GDFM will provide such managerial assistance on our behalf to portfolio
companies that request this assistance. To the extent fees are paid for these services, we, rather than FSIC II Advisor or GDFM, will retain any fees paid for such assistance.

Exit

While we attempt to invest in securities that may be sold in a
privately negotiated over-the-counter market, providing us a means by which we may exit our positions, we expect that a large portion of our portfolio may not be sold on
this secondary market. For any investments that are not able to be sold within this market, we focus primarily on investing in companies whose business models and growth prospects offer attractive exit possibilities, including repayment of our
investments, an initial public offering of equity securities, a merger, a sale or a recapitalization, in each case with the potential for capital gains.

Financing Arrangements

To seek to enhance our returns, we employ leverage as market conditions permit and at the discretion of FSIC II Advisor, but in no event will leverage employed exceed 50% of the value of our assets, as
required by the 1940 Act. Below is a summary of our outstanding financing arrangements as of December 31, 2016:

non-usage fees, was 3.27%.

See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements
contained in this annual report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding our financing arrangements.

Regulation

We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. The 1940 Act contains prohibitions and restrictions relating to transactions
between BDCs and their affiliates, principal underwriters and affiliates of those affiliates or underwriters. The 1940 Act requires that a majority of our directors be persons other than interested persons, as that term is defined in the
1940 Act. In addition, the 1940 Act provides that we may not change the nature of our business so as to cease to be, or to withdraw our election as, a BDC unless approved by a majority of our outstanding voting securities.

The 1940 Act defines a majority of the outstanding voting securities as the lesser of (i) 67% or more of the voting
securities present at a meeting if the holders of more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy or (ii) 50% of our voting securities.

We will generally not be able to issue and sell our common stock at a price per share, after deducting underwriting commissions and
discounts, that is below our net asset value per share. See Item 1A. Risk FactorsRisks Related to Business Development CompaniesRegulations governing our operation as a BDC and a RIC will affect our ability to raise, and the way in
which we raise, additional capital or borrow for investment purposes, which may have a negative effect on our growth. We may, however, sell our common stock, or warrants, options or rights to acquire our common stock, at a price below the
then-current net asset value of our common stock if our board of directors determines that such sale is in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders, and our stockholders approve such sale. In addition, we may generally issue new
shares of our common stock at a price below net asset value per share in rights offerings to existing stockholders, in payment of dividends and in certain other limited circumstances.

##### Table of Contents

As a BDC, we are subject to certain regulatory restrictions in making our investments. For
example, BDCs generally are not permitted to co-invest with certain affiliated entities in transactions originated by the BDC or its affiliates in the absence of an exemptive order from the SEC. However, BDCs
are permitted to, and may, simultaneously co-invest in transactions where price is the only negotiated term. In an order dated June 4, 2013, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting us, subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with our co investment affiliates. Under the terms of this relief, a required majority (as
defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors must make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the proposed
transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching of us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned and (2) the transaction is consistent with the
interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our investment objectives and strategy. We believe this relief has and may continue to enhance our ability to further our investment objectives and strategy. We believe this relief may also
increase favorable investment opportunities for us, in part, by allowing us to participate in larger investments, together with our co-investment affiliates, than would be available to us if such relief had
not been obtained. Because we did not seek exemptive relief to engage in co-investment transactions with GDFM and its affiliates, we are permitted to co-invest with GDFM
and its affiliates only in accordance with existing regulatory guidance (e.g., where price is the only negotiated term).

Qualifying Assets

Under the 1940 Act, a BDC may not acquire any asset other than assets of the type listed in Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act, which are referred to as qualifying assets, unless, at the time the
acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the companys total assets. The principal categories of qualifying assets relevant to our business are any of the following:



| | 1. | Securities purchased in transactions not involving any public offering from the issuer of such securities, which issuer (subject to certain limited exceptions) is an
eligible portfolio company, or from any person who is, or has been during the preceding 13 months, an affiliated person of an eligible portfolio company, or from any other person, subject to such rules as may be prescribed by the SEC. An eligible
portfolio company is defined in the 1940 Act as any issuer which:
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | a. | is organized under the laws of, and has its principal place of business in, the United States;
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | b. | is not an investment company (other than a small business investment company wholly owned by the BDC) or a company that would be an investment company but for certain
exclusions under the 1940 Act; and
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | c. | satisfies any of the following:
| | -- | -------------------------------



| | i. | does not have any class of securities that is traded on a national securities exchange;
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | ii. | has a class of securities listed on a national securities exchange, but has an aggregate market value of outstanding voting and
non-voting common equity of less than $250 million;
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | iii. | is controlled by a BDC or a group of companies including a BDC and the BDC has an affiliated person who is a director of the eligible portfolio company; or
| | ---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | iv. | is a small and solvent company having total assets of not more than $4.0 million and capital and surplus of not less than $2.0 million.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 2. | Securities of any eligible portfolio company that we control.
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------



| | 3. | Securities purchased in a private transaction from a U.S. issuer that is not an investment company or from an affiliated person of the issuer, or in transactions
incident thereto, if the issuer is in bankruptcy and subject to reorganization or if the issuer, immediately prior to the purchase of its securities, was unable to meet its obligations as they came due without material assistance other than
conventional lending or financing arrangements.
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| | 4. | Securities of an eligible portfolio company purchased from any person in a private transaction if there is no ready market for such securities and we already own 60% of
the outstanding equity of the eligible portfolio company.
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 5. | Securities received in exchange for or distributed on or with respect to securities described in (1) through (4) above, or pursuant to the exercise of warrants or
rights relating to such securities.
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 6. | Cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities or high-quality debt securities maturing in one year or less from the time of investment.
| | -- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, a BDC must have been organized and have its principal place of business in the United States and must be operated for the
purpose of making investments in the types of securities described in (1), (2) or (3) above.

Managerial
Assistance to Portfolio Companies

In order to count portfolio securities as qualifying assets for the purpose of the
70% test, we must either control the issuer of the securities or must offer to make available to the issuer of the securities (other than small and solvent companies described above) significant managerial assistance; except that, where we purchase
such securities in conjunction with one or more other persons acting together, one of the other persons in the group may make available such managerial assistance. Making available managerial assistance means, among other things, any arrangement
whereby the BDC, through its directors, officers or employees, offers to provide, and, if accepted, does so provide, significant guidance and counsel concerning the management, operations or business objectives and policies of a portfolio company.

Temporary Investments

Pending investment in other types of qualifying assets, as described above, our investments may consist of cash, cash equivalents, including money market funds, U.S. government securities or
high-quality debt securities maturing in one year or less from the time of investment, which we refer to, collectively, as temporary investments, so that 70% of our assets are qualifying assets. Typically, we will invest in U.S. Treasury bills or in
repurchase agreements, provided that such agreements are fully collateralized by cash or securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies. A repurchase agreement involves the purchase by an investor, such as us, of a specified security and
the simultaneous agreement by the seller to repurchase it at an agreed-upon future date and at a price that is greater than the purchase price by an amount that reflects an agreed-upon interest rate. There is no percentage restriction on the
proportion of our assets that may be invested in such repurchase agreements. However, if more than 25% of our total assets constitute repurchase agreements from a single counterparty, we would not meet the diversification tests in order to maintain
our qualification as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes as described below under Taxation as a RIC. Thus, we do not intend to enter into repurchase agreements with a single counterparty in excess of this limit. FSIC II
Advisor will monitor the creditworthiness of the counterparties with which we enter into repurchase agreement transactions.

Senior Securities

We are permitted, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of debt and one class of stock senior to our common stock if our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least equal to
200% immediately after each such issuance. In addition, while any senior securities remain outstanding, we must make provisions to prohibit any distribution to our stockholders or the repurchase of such securities or shares unless we meet the
applicable asset coverage ratios at the time of the distribution or repurchase. We may also borrow amounts up to 5% of the value of our total assets for temporary purposes without regard to asset coverage. For a discussion of the risks associated
with leverage, see Item 1A. Risk FactorsRisks Related to Debt Financing and Item 1A. Risk FactorsRisks Related to Business Development Companies.

Code of Ethics

We and FSIC II Advisor have each adopted a code of ethics pursuant to Rule 17j-1 promulgated under
the 1940 Act that, among other things, establishes procedures for personal investments and restricts certain personal securities transactions. Personnel subject to the code may invest in securities for their personal investment accounts, including
securities that may be purchased or held by us, so long as such investments are made in accordance with each codes requirements. Our code of ethics was filed as an exhibit to our current report on Form
8-K filed with the SEC on August 4, 2016. You may also read and copy our code of ethics at the SECs Public Reference Room located at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. You may obtain
information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at (202) 551-8090. In addition, our and FSIC II Advisors code of ethics is available on our website at
www.fsinvestments.com and our code of ethics is available on the EDGAR Database on the SECs Internet site at www.sec.gov. You may also obtain a copy of our code of ethics, after paying a duplicating fee, by electronic request at
the following e-mail address: publicinfo@sec.gov, or by writing the SECs Public Reference Section at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549.

Compliance Policies and Procedures

We and FSIC II Advisor have adopted and implemented written policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent violation of the federal securities laws and are required to review these compliance
policies and procedures annually for their adequacy and the effectiveness of their implementation. Our chief compliance officer and the chief compliance officer of FSIC II Advisor are responsible for administering these policies and procedures.

Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures

We have delegated our proxy voting responsibility to FSIC II Advisor. The proxy voting policies and procedures of FSIC II Advisor are set forth below. The guidelines are reviewed periodically by FSIC II
Advisor and our independent directors, and, accordingly, are subject to change.

As an investment adviser registered under the
Advisers Act, FSIC II Advisor has a fiduciary duty to act solely in the best interests of its clients. As part of this duty, it recognizes that it must vote client securities in a timely manner free of conflicts of interest and in the best interests
of its clients. These policies and procedures for voting proxies for the investment advisory clients of FSIC II Advisor are intended to comply with Section 206 of, and Rule 206(4)-6 promulgated under, the
Advisers Act.

FSIC II Advisor will vote proxies relating to our securities in the best interest of its clients
stockholders. It will review on a case-by-case basis each proposal submitted for a stockholder vote to determine its impact on the portfolio securities held by its
clients. Although FSIC II Advisor will generally vote against proposals that may have a negative impact on its clients portfolio securities, it may vote for such a proposal if there exists compelling long-term reasons to do so.

The proxy voting decisions of FSIC II Advisor are made by the senior officers who are responsible for monitoring each of its
clients investments. To ensure that its vote is not the product of a conflict of interest, it will require that: (a) anyone involved in the decision-making process disclose to its chief compliance officer any potential conflict that he or
she is aware of and any contact that he or she has had with any interested party regarding a proxy vote; and (b) employees involved in the decision-making process or vote administration are prohibited from revealing how FSIC II Advisor intends
to vote on a proposal in order to reduce any attempted influence from interested parties.

You may obtain information, without
charge, regarding how FSIC II Advisor voted proxies with respect to our portfolio securities by making a written request for proxy voting information to: Chief Compliance Officer, FS Investment Corporation II, 201 Rouse Boulevard, Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania 19112 or by calling us collect at (215) 495-1150.

Other

We will be periodically examined by the SEC for compliance with the 1940 Act.

We
are required to provide and maintain a bond issued by a reputable fidelity insurance company to protect us against larceny and embezzlement. Furthermore, as a BDC, we are prohibited from protecting any director or officer against any liability to us
or our stockholders arising from willful misconduct, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such persons office.

Securities Exchange Act and Sarbanes-Oxley Act Compliance

We are
subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, including the filing of annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other required items. In addition, we
are subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which imposes a wide variety of regulatory requirements on publicly-held companies and their insiders. Many of these requirements affect us. For example:



| |  |  | pursuant to Rule 13a-14 promulgated under the Exchange Act, our chief executive officer and chief financial
officer are required to certify the accuracy of the financial statements contained in our periodic reports;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | pursuant to Item 307 of Regulation S-K, our periodic reports are required to disclose our conclusions
about the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | pursuant to Rule 13a-15 promulgated under the Exchange Act, our management is required to prepare a report
regarding its assessment of our internal control over financial reporting.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires
us to review our current policies and procedures to determine whether we comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder. We monitor our compliance with all regulations that are adopted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and
take actions necessary to ensure that we are in compliance therewith. In addition, we have voluntarily complied with Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and have engaged our independent registered public accounting firm to audit our
internal control over financial reporting.

Taxation as a RIC

We have elected to be subject to tax as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains
that we timely distribute each tax year as distributions to our stockholders. To qualify for and maintain our qualification as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain
source-of-income and asset diversification requirements (as described below). In addition, in order to maintain RIC tax treatment, we must distribute to our
stockholders, for each tax year, distributions generally of an amount at least equal to 90% of our investment company taxable income, which is generally the sum of our net ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of realized net
short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses, determined without regard to any deduction for distributions paid, or the Annual Distribution Requirement.

If we:



| |  |  | qualify as a RIC; and
| | - |  | ---------------------



| |  |  | satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------

then we will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the portion of our income or capital gains we distribute (or are deemed to distribute) as distributions to our stockholders. We will be subject to
U.S. federal income tax at the regular corporate rates on any income or capital gains not distributed (or deemed distributed) as distributions to our stockholders.



24



---

##### Table of Contents

As a RIC, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on certain
undistributed income unless we distribute distributions in a timely manner to our stockholders generally of an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of our net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the
calendar year, (2) 98.2% of our capital gain net income, which is the excess of capital gains in excess of capital losses, or capital gain net income (as adjusted for certain ordinary losses), for the
one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year and (3) any net ordinary income and capital gain net income for the preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we
paid no U.S. federal income tax, or the Excise Tax Avoidance Requirement. Any distribution declared by us during October, November or December of any calendar year, payable to stockholders of record on a specified date in such a month and actually
paid during January of the following calendar year, will be treated as if it had been paid by us, as well as received by our U.S. stockholders, on December 31 of the calendar year in which the distribution was declared.

We have previously incurred, and may incur in the future, such excise tax on a portion of our income and capital gains. While we intend
to distribute income and capital gains to minimize exposure to the 4% excise tax, we may not be able to, or may choose not to, distribute amounts sufficient to avoid the imposition of the tax entirely. In that event, we generally will be liable for
the excise tax only on the amount by which we do not meet the excise tax avoidance requirement.

In order to qualify as a RIC
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we must, among other things:



| |  |  | continue to qualify as a BDC under the 1940 Act at all times during each tax year;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | derive in each tax year at least 90% of our gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to certain securities, loans, gains from the
sale of stock or other securities, net income from certain qualified publicly-traded partnerships, or other income derived with respect to our business of investing in such stock or other securities, or the 90% Income Test; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diversify our holdings so that at the end of each quarter of the tax year:
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | at least 50% of the value of our assets consists of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, securities of other RICs, and other securities
if such other securities of any one issuer do not represent more than 5% of the value of our assets or more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | no more than 25% of the value of our assets is invested in the securities, other than U.S. government securities or securities of other RICs, of one
issuer, of two or more issuers that are controlled, as determined under applicable Code rules, by us and that are engaged in the same or similar or related trades or businesses or of certain qualified publicly-traded partnerships, or the
Diversification Tests.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A RIC is limited in its ability to deduct expenses in excess of its investment
company taxable income. If our expenses in a given tax year exceed our investment company taxable income, we may experience a net operating loss for that tax year. However, a RIC is not permitted to carry forward net operating losses to subsequent
tax years and such net operating losses do not pass through to its stockholders. In addition, deductible expenses can be used only to offset investment company taxable income, not net capital gain. A RIC may not use any net capital losses (that is,
the excess of realized capital losses over realized capital gains) to offset its investment company taxable income, but may carry forward such net capital losses, and use them to offset future capital gains, indefinitely. Due to these limits on
deductibility of expenses and net capital losses, we may for tax purposes have aggregate taxable income for several years that we are required to distribute and that is taxable to our stockholders even if such taxable income is greater than the net
income we actually earn during those years.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, we may be required to recognize taxable
income in circumstances in which we do not receive a corresponding payment in cash. For example, if we hold debt instruments that are treated under applicable tax rules as having original issue discount (such as debt instruments with PIK interest
or, in certain cases, increasing interest rates or debt instruments that were issued with warrants), we must include in income each tax year a portion of the original issue discount that accrues over the life of the obligation,



25

##### Table of Contents

regardless of whether cash representing such income is received by us in the same tax year. We may also have to include in income other amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as
deferred loan origination fees that are paid after origination of the loan or are paid in non-cash compensation such as warrants or stock. We anticipate that a portion of our income may constitute original
issue discount or other income required to be included in taxable income prior to receipt of cash. Further, we may elect to amortize market discount and include such amounts in our taxable income in the current tax year, instead of upon their
disposition, as an election not to do so would limit our ability to deduct interest expense for tax purposes.

We invest a
portion of our net assets in below investment grade instruments. Investments in these types of instruments may present special tax issues for us. U.S. federal income tax rules are not entirely clear about issues such as when we may cease to accrue
interest, original issue discount or market discount, when and to what extent deductions may be taken for bad debts or worthless instruments, how payments received on obligations in default should be allocated between principal and income and
whether exchanges of debt instruments in a bankruptcy or workout context are taxable. We will address these and other issues to the extent necessary in order to seek to ensure that we distribute sufficient income to avoid any material U.S. federal
income or excise tax.

Because any original issue discount or other amounts accrued will be included in our investment company
taxable income for the tax year of the accrual, we may be required to make a distribution to our stockholders in order to satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement, even though we will not have received any corresponding cash amount. As a result,
we may have difficulty meeting the Annual Distribution Requirement necessary to maintain RIC tax treatment under Subchapter M of the Code. We may have to sell or otherwise dispose of some of our investments at times and/or at prices we would not
consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital or forgo new investment opportunities for this purpose. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and thus become subject to
corporate-level income tax.

Although we do not presently expect to do so, we are authorized to borrow funds and to sell or
otherwise dispose of assets in order to satisfy distribution requirements. However, under the 1940 Act, we are not permitted to make distributions to our stockholders while our debt obligations and other senior securities are outstanding unless
certain asset coverage tests are met. See RegulationSenior Securities. Moreover, our ability to sell or otherwise dispose of assets to meet the Annual Distribution Requirement may be limited by (1) the
illiquid nature of our portfolio and/or (2) other requirements relating to our status as a RIC, including the Diversification Tests. If we sell or otherwise dispose of assets in order to meet the Annual Distribution Requirement or the Excise
Tax Avoidance Requirement, we may make such dispositions at times that, from an investment standpoint, are not advantageous.

A portfolio company in which we invest may face financial difficulties that require us to
work-out, modify or otherwise restructure our investment in the portfolio company. Any such transaction could, depending upon the specific terms of the transaction, result in unusable capital losses and future
non-cash income. Any such transaction could also result in our receiving assets that give rise to non-qualifying income for purposes of the 90% Income Test or otherwise
would not count toward satisfying the Diversification Tests.

Some of the income that we might otherwise earn, such as fees
for providing managerial assistance, certain fees earned with respect to our investments, income recognized in a work-out or restructuring of a portfolio investment, or income recognized from an equity
investment in an operating partnership, may not satisfy the 90% Income Test. To manage the risk that such income might disqualify us as a RIC for failure to satisfy the 90% Income Test, one or more subsidiary entities treated as U.S. corporations
for entity-level income tax purposes may be employed to earn such income and (if applicable) hold the related asset. Such subsidiary entities will be required to pay U.S. federal income tax on their earnings, which ultimately will reduce the yield
to our stockholders on such fees and income.

Competition

Our primary competitors for investments include other BDCs and investment funds (including private equity funds, mezzanine funds and CLO funds). In addition, alternative investment vehicles, such as hedge
funds, have begun to invest in areas in which they have not traditionally invested, including making investments in middle market private U.S. companies. We also compete with traditional financial services companies such as commercial banks. We
believe we will be able to compete with these entities for financing opportunities on the basis of, among other things, the experience of FSIC II Advisors senior management team, together with the wider resources of GSOs investment team.
Furthermore, while we believe that regulatory changes and other factors have diminished the role of traditional financial institutions and certain other capital providers in providing financing to middle market private U.S. companies, we are not
certain whether this trend will continue as a result of the potentially changing regulatory landscape due to the new presidential administration. For additional information, see Market Opportunity and Potential
Competitive Strengths.

Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial,
technical and marketing resources than we do. For example, some competitors may have a lower cost of capital and access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or
different risk assessments than we have. These characteristics could allow our competitors to consider a wider variety of investments, establish more relationships and offer better pricing and more flexible structuring than us. Furthermore, many of
our competitors have greater experience operating under, or are not subject to, the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC. For additional information concerning the competitive risks we face, see Item 1A. Risk
FactorsRisks Related to Our Business and StructureWe may face increasing competition for investment opportunities, which could delay deployment of our capital, reduce returns and result in losses.

Employees

We do not
currently have any employees. Each of our executive officers is a principal, officer or employee of FSIC II Advisor, which manages and oversees our investment operations. In the future, FSIC II Advisor may retain additional investment personnel
based upon its needs.

|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

Investing in our common stock involves a number of significant risks. In addition to the other information contained in this annual
report on Form 10-K, investors should consider carefully the following information before making an investment in our common stock. If any of the following events occur, our business, financial condition and
results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In such case the net asset value of our common stock could decline or the value of our debt or equity investments may decline, and investors may lose all or part of their investment.

Risks Related to Economic Conditions

Future disruptions or instability in capital markets could negatively impact the valuation of our investments and our ability to raise capital.

From time to time, the global capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability, which could be prolonged and which
could materially and adversely impact the broader financial and credit markets, have a negative impact on the valuations of our investments and reduce the availability to us of debt and equity capital. For example, between 2008 and 2009, instability
in the global capital markets resulted in disruptions in liquidity in the debt capital markets, significant write-offs in the financial services sector, the re-pricing of credit risk in the broadly syndicated
credit market and the failure of major domestic and international financial institutions. In particular, the financial services sector was negatively impacted by significant write-offs as the value of the assets held by financial firms declined,
impairing their capital positions and abilities to lend and invest. More recently, the macroeconomic environment, including recent social and political tensions in the U.S. and around the world (e.g. the United Kingdom referendum to leave the
European Union), concerns regarding the Chinese economy and declines in commodity prices, has led to, and may continue to lead to, volatility in the broadly syndicated credit market as investors re-price
credit risk.

While most of our investments are not publicly traded, applicable accounting standards require us to assume as
part of our valuation process that our investments are sold in a principal market to market participants (even if we plan on holding an investment through its maturity) and impairments of the market values or fair market values of our investments,
even if unrealized, must be reflected in our financial statements for the applicable period, which could result in significant reductions to our net asset value for the period. With certain limited exceptions, we are only allowed to borrow amounts
or issue debt securities if our asset coverage, as calculated pursuant to the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% immediately after such borrowing. Equity capital may also be difficult to raise during periods of adverse or volatile market conditions
because, subject to some limited exceptions, as a BDC, we are generally not able to issue additional shares of our common stock at a price less than net asset value without first obtaining approval for such issuance from our stockholders and our
independent directors. If we are unable to raise capital or refinance existing debt on acceptable terms, then we may be limited in our ability to make new commitments or to fund existing commitments to our portfolio companies. Significant changes in
the capital markets may also affect the pace of our investment activity and the potential for liquidity events involving our investments. Thus, the illiquidity of our investments may make it difficult for us to sell such investments to access
capital if required, and as a result, we could realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded our investments if we were required to sell them for liquidity purposes.

Uncertainty with respect to the financial stability of the United States and several countries in the European Union (EU) could have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations.

In August 2011, S&P lowered its long-term sovereign credit rating on the U.S. from
AAA to AA+, which was last affirmed by S&P in November 2016. Moodys and Fitch Ratings, Inc. have also warned that they may downgrade the U.S. federal governments credit rating. In addition, the economic
downturn and the significant government interventions into the financial markets and fiscal stimulus spending over the last several years have contributed to significantly increased U.S. budget deficits. The U.S. government has on several



28



---

##### Table of Contents

occasions adopted legislation to suspend the federal debt ceiling to allow the U.S. Treasury Department to issue additional debt. Further downgrades or warnings by S&P or other rating
agencies, and the U.S. governments credit and deficit concerns in general, including issues around the federal debt ceiling, could cause interest rates and borrowing costs to rise, which may negatively impact both the perception of credit risk
associated with our debt portfolio and our ability to access the debt markets on favorable terms. Furthermore, in February 2014, the Federal Reserve began scaling back its bond-buying program, or quantitative easing, which it ended in October 2014.
Quantitative easing was designed to stimulate the economy and expand the Federal Reserves holdings of long-term securities until key economic indicators, such as the unemployment rate, showed signs of improvement. The Federal Reserve also
raised interest rates during the fourth quarter of 2015 and the fourth quarter of 2016. It is unclear what effect, if any, the end of quantitative easing, future interest rate raises, if any, and the pace of any such raises will have on the value of
our investments or our ability to access the debt markets on favorable terms.

In 2010, a financial crisis emerged in Europe,
triggered by high budget deficits and rising direct and contingent sovereign debt in Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain, which created concerns about the ability of these nations to continue to service their sovereign debt obligations. In
January 2012, S&P lowered its long-term sovereign credit rating for France, Italy, Spain and six other European countries, which has negatively impacted global markets and economic conditions. In addition, in April 2012, S&P further
lowered its long-term sovereign credit rating for Spain. While the financial stability of such countries has improved, risks resulting from any future debt crisis in Europe or any similar crisis could have a detrimental impact on the global economic
recovery, sovereign and non-sovereign debt in these countries and the financial condition of U.S. and European financial institutions. Furthermore, following the United Kingdoms referendum to leave the
European Union, S&P lowered its long-term sovereign credit rating. In addition the terms of the United Kingdoms exit and any future referendums in other European countries may disrupt the global market. Market disruptions in Europe,
including the increased cost of funding for certain governments and financial institutions, could negatively impact the global economy, and there can be no assurance that assistance packages will be available, or if available, will be sufficient to
stabilize countries and markets in Europe. To the extent uncertainty regarding any economic recovery in Europe negatively impacts consumer confidence levels and spending, personal bankruptcy rates, levels of incurrence and default on consumer debt
and home prices, or other credit factors, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be significantly and adversely affected.

Future economic recessions or downturns could impair our portfolio companies and harm our operating results.

Many of our portfolio companies may be susceptible to economic slowdowns or recessions and may be unable to repay our debt investments during these periods. Therefore, our
non-performing assets are likely to increase, and the value of our portfolio is likely to decrease during these periods. Adverse economic conditions may also decrease the value of any collateral securing our
debt investments. A prolonged recession may further decrease the value of such collateral and result in losses of value in our portfolio and a decrease in our revenues, net income and net asset value. Unfavorable economic conditions also could
increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to us on terms we deem acceptable. These events could prevent us from increasing investments and harm our operating results.
Economic downturns or recessions may also result in a portfolio companys failure to satisfy financial or operating covenants imposed by us or other lenders, which could lead to defaults and, potentially, acceleration of the time when the loans
are due and foreclosure on its assets representing collateral for its obligations, which could trigger cross defaults under other agreements and jeopardize our portfolio companys ability to meet its obligations under the debt that we hold and
the value of any equity securities we own. We may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new terms with a defaulting portfolio company.

A prolonged continuation of depressed oil and natural gas prices could negatively impact the energy
and power industry and energy-related investments within our investment portfolio.

Prices for oil and natural gas,
which historically have been volatile and may continue to be volatile, may be subject to large fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas. A prolonged continuation of depressed oil and
natural gas prices would adversely affect the credit quality and performance of certain of our debt and equity investments in energy and power and related companies. A decrease in credit quality and performance would, in turn, negatively affect the
fair value of these investments, which would consequently negatively affect our net asset value. Should a prolonged period of depressed oil and natural gas prices occur, the ability of certain of our portfolio companies in the energy and power and
related industries to satisfy financial or operating covenants imposed by us or other lenders may be adversely affected, which could, in turn, negatively impact their financial condition and their ability to satisfy their debt service and other
obligations. Likewise, should a prolonged period of depressed oil and natural gas prices occur, it is possible that the cash flow and profit generating capacity of these portfolio companies could also be adversely affected thereby negatively
impacting their ability to pay us dividends or distributions on our investments.

Risks Related to Our Business and Structure

Our ability to achieve our investment objectives depends on FSIC II Advisors and GDFMs ability to manage and support our
investment process and if either our agreement with FSIC II Advisor or FSIC II Advisors agreement with GDFM were to be terminated, or if either FSIC II Advisor or GDFM lose any members of their respective senior management teams, our ability
to achieve our investment objectives could be significantly harmed.

Because we have no employees, we depend on the
investment expertise, skill and network of business contacts of FSIC II Advisor and GDFM. FSIC II Advisor, with the assistance of GDFM, evaluates, negotiates, structures, executes, monitors and services our investments. Our future success depends to
a significant extent on the continued service and coordination of FSIC II Advisor and GDFM, as well as their respective senior management teams. The departure of any members of FSIC II Advisors senior management team could have a material
adverse effect on our ability to achieve our investment objectives. Likewise, the departure of any key employees of GDFM or termination of key industry relationships may impact its ability to render services to us under the terms of its investment sub-advisory agreement with FSIC II Advisor.

Our ability to achieve our investment
objectives depends on FSIC II Advisors ability, with the assistance of GDFM, to identify, analyze, invest in, finance and monitor companies that meet our investment criteria. FSIC II Advisors capabilities in structuring the investment
process, providing competent, attentive and efficient services to us, and facilitating access to financing on acceptable terms depend on the employment of investment professionals in an adequate number and of adequate sophistication to match the
corresponding flow of transactions. To achieve our investment objectives, FSIC II Advisor may need to hire, train, supervise and manage new investment professionals to participate in our investment selection and monitoring process. FSIC II Advisor
may not be able to find investment professionals in a timely manner or at all. Failure to support our investment process could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, the investment advisory and administrative services agreement that FSIC II Advisor has entered into with us, as well as the
investment sub-advisory agreement that FSIC II Advisor has entered into with GDFM, have termination provisions that allow the parties to terminate the agreements without penalty. The investment advisory and
administrative services agreement may be terminated at any time, without penalty, by FSIC II Advisor, upon 120 days notice to us. The investment sub-advisory agreement may be terminated at any time,
without the payment of any penalty, upon 60 days written notice by GDFM or, if our board of directors or the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities determine that the investment
sub-advisory agreement with GDFM should be terminated, by FSIC II Advisor. If either agreement is terminated, it may



30

##### Table of Contents

adversely affect the quality of our investment opportunities. In addition, in the event such agreements are terminated, it may be difficult for us to replace FSIC II Advisor or for FSIC II
Advisor to replace GDFM. Furthermore, the termination of either of these agreements may adversely impact the terms of any financing arrangement into which we may enter, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial
condition.

Because our business model depends to a significant extent upon relationships with private equity sponsors, investment banks
and commercial banks, the inability of FSIC II Advisor and GDFM to maintain or develop these relationships, or the failure of these relationships to generate investment opportunities, could adversely affect our business.

If FSIC II Advisor or GDFM fails to maintain its existing relationships with private equity sponsors, investment banks and commercial
banks on which they rely to provide us with potential investment opportunities, or develop new relationships with other sponsors or sources of investment opportunities, we may not be able to grow our investment portfolio. In addition, individuals
with whom FSIC II Advisor and GDFM have relationships generally are not obligated to provide us with investment opportunities, and, therefore, there is no assurance that such relationships will generate investment opportunities for us. GDFM may
compensate certain brokers or other financial services firms out of its own profits or revenues for services provided in connection with the identification of appropriate investment opportunities.

We may face increasing competition for investment opportunities, which could delay deployment of our capital, reduce returns and result in losses.

We compete for investments with other BDCs and investment funds (including private equity funds, mezzanine funds and
CLO funds), as well as traditional financial services companies such as commercial banks and other sources of funding. Moreover, alternative investment vehicles, such as hedge funds, have begun to invest in areas in which they have not traditionally
invested, including making investments in middle market private U.S. companies. Furthermore, the potentially changing regulatory landscape as a result of the new presidential administration may increase the number of middle-market investors. As a
result of these new entrants, competition for investment opportunities in middle market private U.S. companies may intensify. Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical and marketing resources
than we do. For example, some competitors may have a lower cost of capital and access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments than we have.
These characteristics could allow our competitors to consider a wider variety of investments, establish more relationships and offer better pricing and more flexible structuring than we are able to do. We may lose investment opportunities if we do
not match our competitors pricing, terms and structure. If we are forced to match our competitors pricing, terms and structure, we may not be able to achieve acceptable returns on our investments or may bear substantial risk of capital
loss. A significant part of our competitive advantage stems from the fact that the market for investments in middle market private U.S. companies is underserved by traditional commercial banks and other financial sources. A significant increase in
the number and/or the size of our competitors in this target market could force us to accept less attractive investment terms. Furthermore, many of our competitors have greater experience operating under, or are not subject to, the regulatory
restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC.

Our board of directors may change our operating policies and strategies without
prior notice or stockholder approval.

Our board of directors has the authority to modify or waive our current
operating policies, investment criteria and strategies without prior notice and without stockholder approval. Moreover, we have significant investment flexibility within our investment strategies. Therefore, we may invest our assets in ways with
which investors may not agree. We also cannot predict the effect any changes to our current operating policies, investment criteria and strategies would have on our business, net asset value, operating results and the value of



31

##### Table of Contents

our stock. However, the effects might be adverse, which could negatively impact our ability to pay stockholders distributions and cause them to lose all or part of their investment.

Changes in laws or regulations governing our operations or the operations of our business partners may adversely affect our business or cause us to
alter our business strategy.

We, our portfolio companies and our business partners are subject to regulation at the
local, state and federal level. New legislation may be enacted or new interpretations, rulings or regulations could be adopted, including those governing the types of investments we are permitted to make and the deductability of interest expense by
our portfolio companies, potentially with retroactive effect. In particular, over the last several years there has been an increase in regulatory attention to the extension of credit outside of the traditional banking sector, raising the possibility
that some portion of the non-bank financial sector will be subject to new regulation. New or repealed legislation, interpretations, rulings or regulations could require changes to certain business practices of
us or our portfolio companies, negatively impact the operations, cash flows or financial condition of us or our portfolio companies, impose additional costs on us or our portfolio companies or otherwise adversely affect our business or the business
of our portfolio companies. In addition, any changes to the laws and regulations governing our operations, including with respect to permitted investments, may cause us to alter our investment strategy to avail ourselves of new or different
opportunities or make other changes to our business. Such changes could result in material differences to our strategies and plans as set forth in this annual report on Form 10-K and may result in our
investment focus shifting from the areas of expertise of FSIC II Advisor and GDFM to other types of investments in which FSIC II Advisor and GDFM may have less expertise or little or no experience. Thus, any such changes, if they occur, could have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations and the value of a stockholders investment.

The impact on us of recent
financial reform legislation, including the Dodd-Frank Act, is uncertain.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act, as amended, or the Dodd-Frank Act, institutes a wide range of reforms that will have an impact on financial institutions. Many of the requirements called for in the Dodd-Frank Act are expected to be implemented over time,
most of which will likely be subject to implementing regulations over the course of several years. However, the new presidential administration has announced its intention to repeal, amend, or replace certain portions of Dodd-Frank and the
regulations implemented thereunder. Given the uncertainty associated with the manner in which and whether the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act will be implemented, repealed, amended or replaced, the full impact such requirements will have on our
business, results of operations or financial condition is unclear. The changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act or any changes to the regulations already implemented thereunder may require us to invest significant management attention and resources
to evaluate and make necessary changes in order to comply with new statutory and regulatory requirements. Failure to comply with any such laws, regulations or principles, or changes thereto, may negatively impact our business, results of operations
and financial condition. While we cannot predict what effect any changes in the laws or regulations or their interpretations would have on us as a result of recent financial reform legislation, these changes could be materially adverse to us and our
stockholders.

Future legislation may allow us to incur additional leverage.

As a BDC, we are generally not permitted to incur indebtedness unless immediately after such borrowing we have an asset coverage for total
borrowings of at least 200% (i.e., the amount of debt may not exceed 50% of the value of our assets). Legislation was previously introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives that proposed a modification of this section of the 1940 Act to permit
an increase in the amount of debt that BDCs could incur by modifying the percentage from 200% to 150%. Similar legislation may be reintroduced and may pass that permits us to incur additional leverage under the 1940 Act. As a result, we may be able
to incur additional indebtedness in the future, and, therefore, the risk of an investment in us may increase.

##### Table of Contents

Future legislation or rules could modify how we treat derivatives and other financial arrangements for
purposes of our compliance with the leverage limitations of the 1940 Act.

Future legislation or rules may modify how
we treat derivatives and other financial arrangements for purposes of our compliance with the leverage limitations of the 1940 Act. For example, the SEC proposed a new rule in December 2015 that is designed to enhance the regulation of the use of
derivatives by registered investments companies and business development companies. While the adoption of the December 2015 rule is currently uncertain, the proposed rule, if adopted, or any future legislation or rules, may modify how leverage is
calculated under the 1940 Act and, therefore, may increase or decrease the amount of leverage currently available to us under the 1940 Act, which may be materially adverse to us and our stockholders.

As a public company, we are subject to regulations not applicable to private companies, such as provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Efforts to
comply with such regulations will involve significant expenditures, and non-compliance with such regulations may adversely affect us.

As a public company, we incur legal, accounting and other expenses, including costs associated with the periodic reporting requirements
applicable to a company whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, as well as additional corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and other rules implemented by the SEC. Our management is
required to report on our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder. In particular, our management is required to review on an annual basis our
internal control over financial reporting, and on a quarterly and annual basis to evaluate and disclose changes in our internal control over financial reporting. Although not required, we also elect to obtain an attestation from our independent
registered public accounting firm on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

We incur significant
expenses in connection with our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other regulations applicable to public companies, which may negatively impact our financial performance and our ability to make distributions. Compliance with such
regulations also requires a significant amount of our managements time and attention. For example, we cannot be certain as to the timing of the completion of our Sarbanes-Oxley mandated evaluations, testings and remediation actions, if any, or
the impact of the same on our operations, and we may not be able to ensure that the process is effective or that our internal control over financial reporting is or will be deemed effective in the future. In the event that we are unable to maintain
an effective system of internal control and maintain compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related rules, we may be adversely affected.

We may experience fluctuations in our quarterly results.

We could experience fluctuations in our quarterly operating results due to a number of factors, including our ability or inability to make investments in companies that meet our investment criteria, the
interest rate payable on the debt securities we acquire, the level of our expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which we encounter competition in our markets and general
economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any previous period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods.

If we, our affiliates and our and their respective third-party service providers are unable to maintain the availability of electronic data systems and safeguard the security of data, our ability to
conduct business may be compromised, which could impair our liquidity, disrupt our business, damage our reputation or otherwise adversely affect our business.

Cybersecurity refers to the combination of technologies, processes, and procedures established to protect information technology systems and data from unauthorized access, attack, or damage. We, our
affiliates and our and their respective third-party service providers are subject to cybersecurity risks. Cybersecurity risks have



33



---

##### Table of Contents

significantly increased in recent years and, while we have not experienced any material losses relating to cyber attacks or other information security breaches, we could suffer such losses in the
future. Our, our affiliates and our and their respective third-party service providers computer systems, software and networks may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer viruses or other malicious code and other events that could have
a security impact. If one or more of such events occur, this potentially could jeopardize confidential and other information, including nonpublic personal information and sensitive business data, processed and stored in, and transmitted through,
computer systems and networks, or otherwise cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations or the operations of our affiliates and our and their respective third-party service providers. This could result in significant losses, reputational
damage, litigation, regulatory fines or penalties, or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Privacy and information security laws and regulation changes, and compliance with those changes, may result
in cost increases due to system changes and the development of new administrative processes. In addition, we may be required to expend significant additional resources to modify our protective measures and to investigate and remediate
vulnerabilities or other exposures arising from operational and security risks.

Risks Related to FSIC II Advisor, GDFM and their
respective Affiliates

FSIC II Advisor, GDFM and their respective affiliates, including our officers and some of our directors, face
conflicts of interest as a result of compensation arrangements between us and FSIC II Advisor, and FSIC II Advisor and GDFM, which could result in actions that are not in the best interests of our stockholders.

FSIC II Advisor, GDFM and their respective affiliates receive substantial fees from us in return for their services, and these fees could
influence the advice provided to us. We pay to FSIC II Advisor an incentive fee that is based on the performance of our portfolio and an annual base management fee that is based on the average value of our gross assets, and FSIC II Advisor shares a
portion of these fees with GDFM pursuant to the investment sub-advisory agreement between FSIC II Advisor and GDFM. Because the incentive fee is based on the performance of our portfolio, FSIC II Advisor may
be incentivized to make investments on our behalf, and GDFM may be incentivized to recommend investments for us to FSIC II Advisor, that are riskier or more speculative than would be the case in the absence of such compensation arrangement. The way
in which the incentive fee is determined may also encourage FSIC II Advisor to use leverage to increase the return on our investments. In addition, because the base management fee is based upon the average value of our gross assets, which includes
any borrowings for investment purposes, FSIC II Advisor may be incentivized to recommend the use of leverage or the issuance of additional equity to make additional investments and increase the average value of our gross assets. Under certain
circumstances, the use of leverage may increase the likelihood of default, which could disfavor holders of our common stock. Our compensation arrangements could therefore result in our making riskier or more speculative investments, or relying more
on leverage to make investments, than would otherwise be the case. This could result in higher investment losses, particularly during cyclical economic downturns.

We may be obligated to pay FSIC II Advisor incentive compensation even if we incur a net loss due to a decline in the value of our portfolio, or on income that we have not received.

The investment advisory and administrative services agreement entitles FSIC II Advisor to receive incentive
compensation on income regardless of any capital losses. In such case, we may be required to pay FSIC II Advisor incentive compensation for a fiscal quarter even if there is a decline in the value of our portfolio or if we incur a net loss for that
quarter.

In addition, any incentive fee payable by us that relates to our net investment income may be computed and paid on
income that may include interest that has been accrued but not yet received. If a portfolio company defaults on a loan that is structured to provide accrued interest, it is possible that accrued interest previously included in the calculation of the
incentive fee will become uncollectible. FSIC II Advisor is not under any obligation to reimburse us for any part of the incentive fee it received that was based on accrued income that we



34



---

##### Table of Contents

never received as a result of a default by an entity on the obligation that resulted in the accrual of such income, and such circumstances would result in our paying an incentive fee on income we
never received.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, we are required to recognize taxable income (such as deferred interest
that is accrued as original issue discount) in some circumstances in which we do not receive a corresponding payment in cash. Under such circumstances, we may have difficulty meeting the Annual Distribution Requirement necessary to maintain RIC tax
treatment under the Code. This difficulty in making the required distribution may be amplified to the extent that we are required to pay an incentive fee with respect to such accrued income. As a result, we may have to sell some of our investments
at times and/or at prices we would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital, or forgo new investment opportunities for this purpose. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify for RIC tax
treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax.

There may be conflicts of interest related to obligations FSIC II
Advisors and GDFMs senior management and investment teams have to our affiliates and to other clients.

The
members of the senior management and investment teams of both FSIC II Advisor and GDFM serve or may serve as officers, directors or principals of entities that operate in the same or a related line of business as we do, or of investment vehicles
managed by the same personnel. For example, the officers, managers and other personnel of FSIC II Advisor also serve in similar capacities for the investment advisers to FS Investments four other affiliated BDCs, FS Investment Corporation, FS
Energy and Power Fund, FS Investment Corporation III and FS Investment Corporation IV and FS Investments affiliated closed-end management investment company, FS Global Credit Opportunities Fund, and may
serve in similar or other capacities for the investment advisers to future investment vehicles affiliated with FS Investments. In serving in these multiple and other capacities, they may have obligations to other clients or investors in those
entities, the fulfillment of which may not be in our best interests or in the best interest of our stockholders. Our investment objectives may overlap with the investment objectives of such investment funds, accounts or other investment vehicles.
For example, we rely on FSIC II Advisor to manage our day-to-day activities and to implement our investment strategy. FSIC II Advisor and certain of its affiliates are
presently, and plan in the future to continue to be, involved with activities which are unrelated to us. As a result of these activities, FSIC II Advisor, its employees and certain of its affiliates will have conflicts of interest in allocating
their time between us and other activities in which they are or may become involved, including the management of other entities affiliated with FS Investments. FSIC II Advisor and its employees will devote only as much of its or their time to our
business as FSIC II Advisor and its employees, in their judgment, determine is reasonably required, which may be substantially less than their full time.

Furthermore, GDFM, on which FSIC II Advisor relies to assist it in identifying investment opportunities and making investment recommendations, has similar conflicts of interest. GDFM or its parent, GSO,
serves as investment sub-adviser to FS Investments four other affiliated BDCs and FS Investments affiliated closed-end management investment company. GDFM,
its affiliates and their respective members, partners, officers and employees will devote as much of their time to our activities as they deem necessary and appropriate. GDFM and its affiliates are not restricted from forming additional investment
vehicles, from entering into other investment advisory relationships or from engaging in other business activities, even though such activities may be in competition with us and/or may involve substantial time and resources of GDFM. Also, in
connection with such business activities, GDFM and its affiliates may have existing business relationships or access to material, non-public information that may prevent it from recommending investment
opportunities that would otherwise fit within our investment objectives. All of these factors could be viewed as creating a conflict of interest in that the time, effort and ability of the members of GDFM, its affiliates and their officers and
employees will not be devoted exclusively to our business but will be allocated between us and the management of the monies of other advisees of GDFM and its affiliates.

The time and resources that individuals employed by FSIC II Advisor and GDFM devote to us may be
diverted and we may face additional competition due to the fact that individuals employed by FSIC II Advisor and GDFM are not prohibited from raising money for or managing another entity that makes the same types of investments that we target.

Neither FSIC II Advisor nor GDFM, or individuals employed by FSIC II Advisor or GDFM, are prohibited from raising
money for and managing another investment entity that makes the same types of investments as those we target. As a result, the time and resources that these individuals may devote to us may be diverted. In addition, we may compete with any such
investment entity for the same investors and investment opportunities. In an order dated June 4, 2013, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting us, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to
co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with our co-investment affiliates. Because we did not seek exemptive relief to engage in co-investment transactions with GDFM and its affiliates, we are permitted to co-invest with GDFM and its affiliates only in accordance with existing regulatory guidance (e.g.,
where price is the only negotiated term). Affiliates of GDFM, whose primary businesses include the origination of investments, engage in investment advisory business with accounts that compete with us. Affiliates of GDFM have no obligation to make
their originated investment opportunities available to GDFM or to us.

FSIC II Advisors liability is limited under the investment
advisory and administrative services agreement, and we are required to indemnify it against certain liabilities, which may lead it to act in a riskier manner on our behalf than it would when acting for its own account.

Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, FSIC II Advisor and its officers, managers, partners, members
(and their members, including the owners of their members), agents, employees, controlling persons and any other person or entity affiliated with FSIC II Advisor will not be liable to us for their acts under the investment advisory and
administrative services agreement, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of their duties. We have agreed to indemnify, defend and protect FSIC II Advisor and its officers, managers, partners, members (and their
members, including the owners of their members), agents, employees, controlling persons and any other person or entity affiliated with FSIC II Advisor with respect to all damages, liabilities, costs and expenses resulting from acts of FSIC II
Advisor not arising out of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of their duties under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement. These protections may lead FSIC II Advisor to act in a riskier
manner when acting on our behalf than it would when acting for its own account.

Risks Related to Business Development Companies

Failure to maintain our status as a BDC would reduce our operating flexibility.

If we do not remain a BDC, we might be regulated as a closed-end investment company under the 1940
Act, which would subject us to substantially more regulatory restrictions under the 1940 Act and correspondingly decrease our operating flexibility.

We are uncertain of our sources for funding our future capital needs and if we cannot obtain debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, or at all, our ability to acquire investments and to expand
our operations will be adversely affected.

Any working capital reserves we maintain may not be sufficient for
investment purposes, and we may require debt or equity financing to operate. We may also need to access the capital markets to refinance existing debt obligations to the extent maturing obligations are not repaid with cash flows from operations. In
order to maintain RIC tax treatment, we must distribute distributions to our stockholders each tax year on a timely basis generally of an amount at least equal to 90% of our investment company taxable income, determined without regard to any
deduction for distributions paid, and the amounts of such distributions will therefore not be available to fund investment originations or to repay maturing debt. In addition, with certain limited exceptions,



36



---

##### Table of Contents

we are only allowed to borrow amounts or issue debt securities or preferred stock, which we refer to collectively as senior securities, such that our asset coverage, as calculated
pursuant to the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% immediately after such borrowing, which, in certain circumstances, may restrict our ability to borrow or issue debt securities or preferred stock. In the event that we develop a need for additional
capital in the future for investments or for any other reason, and we cannot obtain debt or equity financing on acceptable terms, or at all, our ability to acquire investments and to expand our operations will be adversely affected. As a result, we
would be less able to allocate our portfolio among various issuers and industries and achieve our investment objectives, which may negatively impact our results of operations and reduce our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.

The requirement that we invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets could preclude us from investing in accordance
with our current business strategy; conversely, the failure to invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets could result in our failure to maintain our status as a BDC.

As a BDC, we may not acquire any assets other than qualifying assets unless, at the time of such acquisition, at least 70% of
our total assets are qualifying assets. Therefore, we may be precluded from investing in what we believe are attractive investments if such investments are not qualifying assets. Similarly, these rules could prevent us from making additional
investments in existing portfolio companies, which could result in the dilution of our position, or could require us to dispose of investments at an inopportune time to comply with the 1940 Act. If we were forced to sell non-qualifying investments in the portfolio for compliance purposes, the proceeds from such sale could be significantly less than the current value of such investments. Conversely, if we fail to invest a sufficient
portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could lose our status as a BDC, which would subject us to substantially more regulatory restrictions and significantly decrease our operating flexibility.

Regulations governing our operation as a BDC and a RIC will affect our ability to raise, and the way in which we raise, additional capital or
borrow for investment purposes, which may have a negative effect on our growth.

As a result of our need to satisfy the
Annual Distribution Requirement in order to maintain RIC tax treatment under Subchapter M of the Code, we may need to periodically access the capital markets to raise cash to fund new investments. We may issue senior securities, as
defined in the 1940 Act, including issuing preferred stock, borrowing money from banks or other financial institutions, or issuing debt securities only in amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% after
such incurrence or issuance. Our ability to issue certain other types of securities is also limited. Under the 1940 Act, we are also generally prohibited from issuing or selling our common stock at a price per share, after deducting underwriting
commissions, that is below our net asset value per share, without first obtaining approval for such issuance from our stockholders and our independent directors. Compliance with these limitations on our ability to raise capital may unfavorably limit
our investment opportunities. These limitations may also reduce our ability in comparison to other companies to profit from favorable spreads between the rates at which we can borrow and the rates at which we can lend.

In addition, because we incur indebtedness for investment purposes, if the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy the
asset coverage test under the 1940 Act, which would prohibit us from paying distributions and, as a result, could cause us to be subject to corporate level tax on our income and capital gains, regardless of the amount of distributions paid. If we
cannot satisfy the asset coverage test, we may be required to sell a portion of our investments and, depending on the nature of our debt financing, repay a portion of our indebtedness at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous.

Our ability to enter into transactions with our affiliates is restricted.

We are prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain transactions with certain of our affiliates without the prior approval
of a majority of the independent members of our board of directors and, in some cases,



37

##### Table of Contents

the SEC. Any person that owns, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of our outstanding voting securities will be our affiliate for purposes of the 1940 Act, and we will generally be prohibited from
buying or selling any securities from or to such affiliate, absent the prior approval of our board of directors. The 1940 Act also prohibits certain joint transactions with certain of our affiliates, which could include investments in
the same portfolio company (whether at the same or different times), without prior approval of our board of directors and, in some cases, the SEC. In an order dated June 4, 2013, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting us, subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with our co-investment affiliates. If a person acquires more
than 25% of our voting securities, we will be prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to such person or certain of that persons affiliates, or entering into prohibited joint transactions with such persons to the extent not
covered by the exemptive relief, absent the prior approval of the SEC. Similar restrictions limit our ability to transact business with our officers or directors or their respective affiliates. As a result of these restrictions, we may be prohibited
from buying or selling any security from or to any portfolio company of a fund managed by FSIC II Advisor without the prior approval of the SEC, which may limit the scope of investment opportunities that would otherwise be available to us.

Risks Related to Our Investments

Our investments in prospective portfolio companies may be risky, and we could lose all or part of our investment.

Our investments in senior secured loans, second lien secured loans, senior secured bonds, subordinated debt and equity of private U.S. companies, including middle market companies, may be risky and there
is no limit on the amount of any such investments in which we may invest.

Senior Secured Loans, Second Lien Secured Loans
and Senior Secured Bonds. There is a risk that any collateral pledged by portfolio companies in which we have taken a security interest may decrease in value over time or lose its entire value, may be difficult to sell in a timely manner, may be
difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based upon the success of the business and market conditions, including as a result of the inability of the portfolio company to raise additional capital. To the extent our debt investment is
collateralized by the securities of a portfolio companys subsidiaries, such securities may lose some or all of their value in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the portfolio company. Also, in some circumstances, our security
interest may be contractually or structurally subordinated to claims of other creditors. In addition, deterioration in a portfolio companys financial condition and prospects, including its inability to raise additional capital, may be
accompanied by deterioration in the value of the collateral for the debt. Secured debt that is under-collateralized involves a greater risk of loss. In addition, second lien secured debt is granted a second priority security interest in collateral,
which means that any realization of collateral will generally be applied to pay senior secured debt in full before second lien secured debt is paid. Consequently, the fact that debt is secured does not guarantee that we will receive principal and
interest payments according to the debts terms, or at all, or that we will be able to collect on the debt should we be forced to enforce our remedies.

Subordinated Debt. Our subordinated debt investments will generally rank junior in priority of payment to senior debt and will generally be unsecured. This may result in a heightened level of risk
and volatility or a loss of principal, which could lead to the loss of the entire investment. These investments may involve additional risks that could adversely affect our investment returns. To the extent interest payments associated with such
debt are deferred, such debt may be subject to greater fluctuations in valuations, and such debt could subject us and our stockholders to non-cash income. Because we will not receive any principal repayments
prior to the maturity of some of our subordinated debt investments, such investments will be of greater risk than amortizing loans.

Equity Investments. We may make select equity investments. In addition, in connection with our debt investments, we on occasion receive equity interests such as warrants or options as additional
consideration. The equity interests we receive may not appreciate in value and, in fact, may decline in value. Accordingly, we may not be able to realize gains from our equity interests, and any gains that we do realize on the disposition of any
equity interests may not be sufficient to offset any other losses we experience.

##### Table of Contents

Non-U.S. Securities. We may invest in non-U.S. securities, which may include securities denominated in U.S. dollars or in non-U.S. currencies, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Because evidences of
ownership of such securities usually are held outside the United States, we would be subject to additional risks if we invested in non-U.S. securities, which include possible adverse political and economic
developments, seizure or nationalization of foreign deposits and adoption of governmental restrictions which might adversely affect or restrict the payment of principal and interest on the non-U.S. securities
to investors located outside the country of the issuer, whether from currency blockage or otherwise. Because non-U.S. securities may be purchased with and payable in foreign currencies, the value of these
assets as measured in U.S. dollars may be affected unfavorably by changes in currency rates and exchange control regulations.

Below Investment Grade Risk. In addition, we invest in securities that are rated below investment grade by rating agencies or that
would be rated below investment grade if they were rated. Below investment grade securities, which are often referred to as junk, have predominantly speculative characteristics with respect to the issuers capacity to pay interest
and repay principal. They may also be difficult to value and illiquid.

Investing in middle market companies involves a number of
significant risks, any one of which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

Investments in
middle market companies involve some of the same risks that apply generally to investments in larger, more established companies. However, such investments have more pronounced risks in that they:



| |  |  | may have limited financial resources and may be unable to meet the obligations under their debt securities that we hold, which may be accompanied by a
deterioration in the value of any collateral pledged under such securities and a reduction in the likelihood of us realizing any guarantees we may have obtained in connection with our investment;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | have shorter operating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tends to render them more vulnerable
to competitors actions and changing market conditions, as well as general economic downturns;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of persons; therefore, the death, disability, resignation or
termination of one or more of these persons could have a material adverse impact on our portfolio company and, in turn, on us;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | generally have less predictable operating results, may from time to time be parties to litigation, may be engaged in rapidly changing businesses with
products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence, and may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position. In addition, our executive officers and directors and
members of FSIC II Advisor may, in the ordinary course of business, be named as defendants in litigation arising from our investments in the portfolio companies; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | may have difficulty accessing the capital markets to meet future capital needs, which may limit their ability to grow or to repay their outstanding
indebtedness upon maturity.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our portfolio companies may incur debt that ranks equally with, or senior to, our
investments in such companies.

Our portfolio companies may have, or may be permitted to incur, other debt that ranks
equally with, or senior to, the debt in which we invest. By their terms, such debt instruments may entitle the holders to receive payment of interest or principal on or before the dates on which we are entitled to receive payments with respect to
the debt instruments in which we invest. Also, in the event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a portfolio company, holders of debt instruments ranking senior to our investment in that portfolio company would
typically be entitled to receive payment in full before we receive any proceeds. After repaying such senior creditors, such portfolio company may not have any remaining assets to use



39



---

##### Table of Contents

for repaying its obligation to us. In the case of debt ranking equally with debt instruments in which we invest, we would have to share on an equal basis any distributions with other creditors
holding such debt in the event of an insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of the relevant portfolio company.

There may be circumstances where our debt investments could be subordinated to claims of other creditors or we could be subject to lender liability
claims.

If one of our portfolio companies were to go bankrupt, depending on the facts and circumstances, including the
extent to which we actually provided managerial assistance to that portfolio company, a bankruptcy court might recharacterize our debt investment and subordinate all or a portion of our claim to that of other creditors. In situations where a
bankruptcy carries a high degree of political significance, our legal rights may be subordinated to other creditors. We may also be subject to lender liability claims for actions taken by us with respect to a borrowers business or in instances
where we exercise control over the borrower or render significant managerial assistance.

Second priority liens on collateral securing
debt investments that we make to our portfolio companies may be subject to control by senior creditors with first priority liens. If there is a default, the value of the collateral may not be sufficient to repay in full both the first priority
creditors and us.

Certain debt investments that we make in portfolio companies may be secured on a second priority
basis by the same collateral securing first priority debt of such companies. The first priority liens on the collateral will secure the portfolio companys obligations under any outstanding senior debt and may secure certain other future debt
that may be permitted to be incurred by such company under the agreements governing the loans. The holders of obligations secured by the first priority liens on the collateral will generally control the liquidation of and be entitled to receive
proceeds from any realization of the collateral to repay their obligations in full before us. In addition, the value of the collateral in the event of liquidation will depend on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers and other
factors. There can be no assurance that the proceeds, if any, from the sale or sales of all of the collateral would be sufficient to satisfy the debt obligations secured by the second priority liens after payment in full of all obligations secured
by the first priority liens on the collateral. If such proceeds are not sufficient to repay amounts outstanding under the debt obligations secured by the second priority liens, then we, to the extent not repaid from the proceeds of the sale of the
collateral, will only have an unsecured claim against such companys remaining assets, if any.

The rights we may have
with respect to the collateral securing the debt investments we make in our portfolio companies with senior debt outstanding may also be limited pursuant to the terms of one or more intercreditor agreements that we enter into with the holders of
senior debt. Under such an intercreditor agreement, at any time that obligations that have the benefit of the first priority liens are outstanding, any of the following actions that may be taken in respect of the collateral will be at the direction
of the holders of the obligations secured by the first priority liens: the ability to cause the commencement of enforcement proceedings against the collateral; the ability to control the conduct of such proceedings; the approval of amendments to
collateral documents; releases of liens on the collateral; and waivers of past defaults under collateral documents. We may not have the ability to control or direct such actions, even if our rights are adversely affected.

Our investments in CLOs may be riskier than a direct investment in the debt or other securities of the underlying companies.

When investing in CLOs, we may invest in any level of a CLOs subordination chain, including subordinated (lower-rated) tranches and
residual interests (the lowest tranche). CLOs are typically highly levered and therefore, the junior debt and equity tranches that we may invest in are subject to a higher risk of total loss and deferral or nonpayment of interest than the more
senior tranches to which they are subordinated. In addition, we will generally have the right to receive payments only from the CLOs, and will generally not have direct



40



---

##### Table of Contents

rights against the underlying borrowers or entities that sponsored the CLOs. Furthermore, the investments we make in CLOs are at times thinly traded or have only a limited trading market. As a
result, investments in such CLOs may be characterized as illiquid securities.

We generally will not control our portfolio companies.

We do not expect to control most of our portfolio companies, even though we may have board representation or board
observation rights, and our debt agreements with such portfolio companies may contain certain restrictive covenants. As a result, we are subject to the risk that a portfolio company in which we invest may make business decisions with which we
disagree and the management of such company, as representatives of the holders of their common equity, may take risks or otherwise act in ways that do not serve our interests as debt investors. Due to the lack of liquidity for our investments in non-traded companies, we may not be able to dispose of our interests in our portfolio companies as readily as we would like or at an appropriate valuation. As a result, a portfolio company may make decisions that
could decrease the value of our portfolio holdings.

Declines in market values or fair market values of our investments could result in
significant net unrealized depreciation of our portfolio, which in turn would reduce our net asset value.

Under the
1940 Act, we are required to carry our investments at market value or, if no market value is ascertainable, at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our board of directors. While most of our investments are not publicly
traded, applicable accounting standards require us to assume as part of our valuation process that our investments are sold in a principal market to market participants (even if we plan on holding an investment through its maturity) and impairments
of the market values or fair market values of our investments, even if unrealized, must be reflected in our financial statements for the applicable period as unrealized depreciation, which could result in a significant reduction to our net asset
value for a given period.

A significant portion of our investment portfolio is and will be recorded at fair value as determined in good
faith by our board of directors and, as a result, there is and will be uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments.

Under the 1940 Act, we are required to carry our portfolio investments at market value or, if there is no readily available market value, at fair value, as determined by our board of directors. There is
not a public market for the securities of the privately-held companies in which we invest. Most of our investments are not publicly-traded or actively-traded on a secondary market but are, instead, traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter secondary market for institutional investors or are not traded at all. As a result, we value these securities quarterly at fair value as determined in good
faith by our board of directors.

Certain factors that may be considered in determining the fair value of our investments
include dealer quotes for securities traded on the secondary market for institutional investors, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys earnings and its ability to make payments on its indebtedness, the
markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to comparable publicly-traded companies, discounted cash flows and other relevant factors. Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of private securities and private
companies, are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates, our determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these non-traded securities existed. Due to this uncertainty, our fair value determinations may cause our net asset value on a given date to materially understate or overstate the value that we may ultimately realize upon
the sale of one or more of our investments.

We are exposed to risks associated with changes in interest rates.

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. General interest rate fluctuations may have a substantial
negative impact on our investments, investment opportunities and cost of



41



---

##### Table of Contents

capital and, accordingly, may have a material adverse effect on our investment objectives, our rate of return on invested capital and our ability to service our debt and make distributions to our
stockholders. In addition, an increase in interest rates would make it more expensive to use debt for our financing needs, if any.

Our investment portfolio primarily consists of senior secured debt with maturities typically ranging from three to seven years. The longer the duration of these securities, generally, the more susceptible
they are to changes in market interest rates. As market interest rates increase, those securities with a lower yield-at-cost can experience a mark-to-market unrealized loss. An impairment of the fair market value of our investments, even if unrealized, must be reflected in our financial statements for the applicable
period and may therefore have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for that period.

Because we incur
indebtedness to make investments, our net investment income is dependent, in part, upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds or pay interest on outstanding debt securities and the rate at which we invest these funds. An increase
in interest rates would make it more expensive to use debt to finance our investments or to refinance our current financing arrangements. In addition, certain of our financing arrangements provide for adjustments in the loan interest rate along with
changes in market interest rates. Therefore, in periods of rising interest rates, our cost of funds will increase, which could materially reduce our net investment income. Any reduction in the level of interest rates on new investments relative to
interest rates on our current investments could also adversely impact our net investment income.

We have and may continue to
structure the majority of our debt investments with floating interest rates to position our portfolio for rate increases. However, there can be no assurance that this will successfully mitigate our exposure to interest rate risk. For example, in the
event of a rising interest rate environment, payments under floating rate debt instruments generally would rise and there may be a significant number of issuers of such floating rate debt instruments that would be unable or unwilling to pay such
increased interest costs and may otherwise be unable to repay their loans. Investments in floating rate debt instruments may also decline in value in response to rising interest rates if the interest rates of such investments do not rise as much, or
as quickly, as market interest rates in general. Similarly, during periods of rising interest rates, our fixed rate investments may decline in value because the fixed rate of interest paid thereunder may be below market interest rates.

We may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to limit our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. These techniques
may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. However, these activities may limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to the hedged portion of our portfolio.
We also have limited experience in entering into hedging transactions, and we will initially have to develop such expertise or arrange for such expertise to be provided. Adverse developments resulting from hedging transactions could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Furthermore, because a rise in the
general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates applicable to our debt investments, an increase in interest rates would make it easier for us to meet or exceed the incentive fee hurdle rate in the investment advisory
and administrative services agreement and may result in a substantial increase of the amount of incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to pre-incentive fee net investment income.

A covenant breach by our portfolio companies may harm our operating results.

A portfolio companys failure to satisfy financial or operating covenants imposed by us or other lenders could lead to defaults and,
potentially, termination of its loans and foreclosure on its secured assets, which could trigger cross-defaults under other agreements and jeopardize a portfolio companys ability to meet its obligations under the debt or equity securities that
we hold. We may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new terms, which may include the waiver of certain financial covenants, with a defaulting portfolio company.



42

##### Table of Contents

Our portfolio companies may be highly leveraged.

Some of our portfolio companies may be highly leveraged, which may have adverse consequences to these companies and to us as an investor.
These companies may be subject to restrictive financial and operating covenants and the leverage may impair these companies ability to finance their future operations and capital needs. As a result, these companies flexibility to respond
to changing business and economic conditions and to take advantage of business opportunities may be limited. Further, a leveraged companys income and net assets will tend to increase or decrease at a greater rate than if borrowed money were
not used.

We may not realize gains from our equity investments.

Certain investments that we may make may include equity-related securities, such as rights and warrants that may be converted into or
exchanged for common stock or the cash value of the common stock. In addition, we may make direct equity investments in portfolio companies. The equity interests we receive may not appreciate in value and, in fact, may decline in value. Accordingly,
we may not be able to realize gains from our equity interests and any gains that we do realize on the disposition of any equity interests may not be sufficient to offset any other losses we experience. We may also be unable to realize any value if a
portfolio company does not have a liquidity event, such as a sale of the business, recapitalization or public offering, which would allow us to sell the underlying equity interests. We may be unable to exercise any put rights we acquire, which grant
us the right to sell our equity securities back to the portfolio company, for the consideration provided in our investment documents if the issuer is in financial distress.

An investment strategy focused primarily on privately-held companies presents certain challenges, including the lack of available information about these companies.

Our investments are primarily in privately-held companies. Investments in private companies pose significantly greater risks than
investments in public companies. First, private companies have reduced access to the capital markets, resulting in diminished capital resources and the ability to withstand financial distress. As a result, these companies, which may present greater
credit risk than public companies, may be unable to meet the obligations under their debt securities that we hold. Second, the investments themselves often may be illiquid. The securities of most of the companies in which we invest are not
publicly-traded or actively-traded on the secondary market and are, instead, traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter secondary market for institutional
investors. In addition, such securities may be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale. As such, we may have difficulty exiting an investment promptly or at a desired price prior to maturity or outside of a normal amortization schedule. In
addition, in a restructuring, we may receive substantially different securities than our original investment in a portfolio company, including securities in a different part of the capital structure. These investments may also be difficult to value
because little public information generally exists about private companies, requiring an experienced due diligence team to analyze and value the potential portfolio company. Finally, these companies often may not have third-party debt ratings or
audited financial statements. We must therefore rely on the ability of FSIC II Advisor and/or GDFM to obtain adequate information through due diligence to evaluate the creditworthiness and potential returns from investing in these companies. These
companies and their financial information will generally not be subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other rules and regulations that govern public companies. If we are unable to uncover all material information about these companies, we may not
make a fully informed investment decision, and we may lose money on our investments.

A lack of liquidity in certain of our investments
may adversely affect our business.

We invest in certain companies whose securities are not publicly-traded or
actively-traded on the secondary market and are, instead, traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter secondary market for institutional investors and whose
securities are subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or are otherwise less liquid than publicly-traded securities. The illiquidity of certain of our investments may make it difficult for us to sell these investments when desired. In
addition, if we are required to liquidate all or a portion of our portfolio quickly, we



43



---

##### Table of Contents

may realize significantly less than the value at which we had previously recorded these investments. The reduced liquidity of our investments may make it difficult for us to dispose of them at a
favorable price or at all, and, as a result, we may suffer losses.

We may not have the funds or ability to make additional investments
in our portfolio companies.

We may not have the funds or ability to make additional investments in our portfolio
companies. After our initial investment in a portfolio company, we may be called upon from time to time to provide additional funds to such company or have the opportunity to increase our investment through the exercise of a warrant to purchase
common stock. There is no assurance that we will make, or will have sufficient funds to make, follow-on investments. Any decisions not to make a follow-on investment or
any inability on our part to make such an investment may have a negative impact on a portfolio company in need of such an investment, may result in a missed opportunity for us to increase our participation in a successful operation or may reduce the
expected return on the investment.

Prepayments of our debt investments by our portfolio companies could adversely impact our results of
operations and reduce our return on equity.

We are subject to the risk that the investments we make in our portfolio
companies may be repaid prior to maturity. When this occurs, we will generally reinvest these proceeds in temporary investments, pending their future investment in new portfolio companies. These temporary investments will typically have
substantially lower yields than the debt being prepaid and we could experience significant delays in reinvesting these amounts. Any future investment in a new portfolio company may also be at lower yields than the debt that was repaid. As a result,
our results of operations could be materially adversely affected if one or more of our portfolio companies elect to prepay amounts owed to us. Additionally, prepayments, net of prepayment fees, could negatively impact our return on equity.

Our investments may include original issue discount and PIK instruments.

To the extent that we invest in original issue discount or PIK instruments and the accretion of original issue discount or PIK interest
income constitutes a portion of our income, we will be exposed to risks associated with the requirement to include such non-cash income in taxable and accounting income prior to receipt of cash, including the
following:



| |  |  | The higher interest rates on PIK instruments reflect the payment deferral and increased credit risk associated with these instruments, and PIK
instruments generally represent a significantly higher credit risk than coupon loans;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Original issue discount and PIK instruments may have unreliable valuations because the accruals require judgments about collectability of the deferred
payments and the value of any associated collateral;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | An election to defer PIK interest payments by adding them to the principal on such instruments increases our future investment income which increases
our gross assets and, as such, increases FSIC II Advisors future base management fees which, thus, increases FSIC II Advisors future income incentive fees at a compounding rate;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Market prices of PIK instruments and other zero coupon instruments are affected to a greater extent by interest rate changes, and may be more volatile
than instruments that pay interest periodically in cash. While PIK instruments are usually less volatile than zero coupon debt instruments, PIK instruments are generally more volatile than cash pay securities;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The deferral of PIK interest on an instrument increases the
loan-to-value ratio, which is a measure of the riskiness of a loan, with respect to such instrument;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Even if the conditions for income accrual under GAAP are satisfied, a borrower could still default when actual payment is due upon the maturity of such
loan;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | For accounting purposes, cash distributions to investors representing original issue discount income are not derived from paid-in capital, although they may be paid from the offering proceeds. Thus, although a distribution of original issue discount income may come from the cash invested by investors, the 1940 Act does not require that
investors be given notice of this fact;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The required recognition of PIK interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes may have a negative impact on liquidity, as it represents a non-cash component of our investment company taxable income that may require cash distributions to stockholders in order to maintain our ability to be subject to tax as a RIC; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Original issue discount may create a risk of non-refundable cash payments to FSIC II Advisor based on non-cash accruals that may never be realized.

We may from time to time enter into
total return swaps, credit default swaps or other derivative transactions which expose us to certain risks, including credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk and other risks similar to those associated with the use of leverage.

We may from time to time enter into total return swaps, credit default swaps or other derivative transactions that seek to modify or
replace the investment performance of a particular reference security or other asset. These transactions are typically individually negotiated, non-standardized agreements between two parties to exchange
payments, with payments generally calculated by reference to a notional amount or quantity. Swap contracts and similar derivative contracts are not traded on exchanges; rather, banks and dealers act as principals in these markets. These investments
may present risks in excess of those resulting from the referenced security or other asset. Because these transactions are not an acquisition of the referenced security or other asset itself, the investor has no right directly to enforce compliance
with the terms of the referenced security or other asset and has no voting or other consensual rights of ownership with respect to the referenced security or other asset. In the event of insolvency of a counterparty, we will be treated as a general
creditor of the counterparty and will have no claim of title with respect to the referenced security or other asset.

A total
return swap is a contract in which one party agrees to make periodic payments to another party based on the change in the market value of the referenced security or other assets underlying the total return swap during a specified period, in return
for periodic payments based on a fixed or variable interest rate.

A total return swap is subject to market risk, liquidity
risk and risk of imperfect correlation between the value of the total return swap and the debt obligations underlying the total return swap. In addition, we may incur certain costs in connection with a total return swap that could in the aggregate
be significant.

A credit default swap is a contract in which one party buys or sells protection against a credit event with
respect to an issuer, such as an issuers failure to make timely payments of interest or principal on its debt obligations, bankruptcy or restructuring during a specified period. Generally, if we sell credit protection using a credit default
swap, we will receive fixed payments from the swap counterparty and if a credit event occurs with respect to the applicable issuer, we will pay the swap counterparty par for the issuers defaulted debt securities and the swap counterparty will
deliver the defaulted debt securities to us. Generally, if we buy credit protection using a credit default swap, we will make fixed payments to the counterparty and if a credit event occurs with respect to the applicable issuer, we will deliver the
issuers defaulted securities underlying the swap to the swap counterparty and the counterparty will pay us par for the defaulted securities. Alternatively, a credit default swap may be cash settled and the buyer of protection would receive the
difference between the par value and the market value of the issuers defaulted debt securities from the seller of protection.

Credit default swaps are subject to the credit risk of the underlying issuer. If we are selling credit protection, there is a risk that we will not properly assess the risk of the underlying issuer, a
credit event will occur and we

will have to pay the counterparty. If we are buying credit protection, there is a risk that we will not properly assess the risk of the underlying issuer, no credit event will occur and we will
receive no benefit for the premium paid.

A derivative transaction is also subject to the risk that a counterparty will
default on its payment obligations thereunder or that we will not be able to meet our obligations to the counterparty. In some cases, we may post collateral to secure our obligations to the counterparty, and we may be required to post additional
collateral upon the occurrence of certain events such as a decrease in the value of the reference security or other asset. In some cases, the counterparty may not collateralize any of its obligations to us.

Derivative investments effectively add leverage to a portfolio by providing investment exposure to a security or market without owning or
taking physical custody of such security or investing directly in such market. In addition to the risks described above, such arrangements are subject to risks similar to those associated with the use of leverage.

Risks Related to Debt Financing

We currently incur indebtedness to make investments, which magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested in our common stock and may
increase the risk of investing in our common stock.

The use of borrowings and other types of financing, also known as
leverage, magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested and, therefore, increases the risks associated with investing in our common stock. When we use leverage to partially finance our investments, through borrowing from banks and
other lenders or issuing debt securities, we, and therefore our stockholders, will experience increased risks of investing in our common stock. Any lenders and debt holders would have fixed dollar claims on our assets that are senior to the claims
of our stockholders. If the value of our assets increases, then leverage would cause the net asset value attributable to our common stock to increase more sharply than it would have had we not utilized leverage. Conversely, if the value of our
assets decreases, leverage would cause net asset value to decline more sharply than it otherwise would have had we not utilized leverage. Similarly, any increase in our income in excess of interest payable on our indebtedness would cause our net
investment income to increase more than it would without leverage, while any decrease in our income would cause net investment income to decline more sharply than it would have had we not utilized leverage. Such a decline could negatively affect our
ability to make distributions to stockholders. Leverage is generally considered a speculative investment technique. In addition, the decision to utilize leverage will increase our assets and, as a result, will increase the amount of base management
fees payable for FSIC II Advisor.

Illustration. The following table illustrates the effect of leverage on returns from
an investment in shares of our common stock assuming various annual returns, net of expenses. The calculations in the table below are hypothetical and actual returns may be higher or lower than those appearing below. The calculation assumes
(i) $5.2 billion in total average assets, (ii) a weighted average cost of funds of 3.59%, (iii) $2.2 billion in debt outstanding (i.e., assumes that the full $2.2 billion available to us as of December 31, 2016
under our financing arrangements as of such date is outstanding) and (iv) $3.0 billion in stockholders equity. In order to compute the Corresponding return to stockholders, the Assumed Return on Our Portfolio (net
of expenses) is multiplied by the assumed total assets to obtain an assumed return to us. From this amount, the interest expense is calculated by multiplying the assumed weighted average cost of funds times the assumed debt outstanding, and
the product is subtracted from the assumed return to us in order to determine the return available to stockholders. The return available to stockholders is then divided by our stockholders equity to determine the Corresponding return to
stockholders. Actual interest payments may be different.



|                                                  |  |       |        |    |      |  |        |    |  |  |       |    |  |     |      |   |  |  |       |

Similarly, assuming (i) $5.2 billion in total average assets, (ii) a weighted
average cost of funds of 3.59% and (iii) $2.2 billion in debt outstanding (i.e., assuming that the full $2.2 billion available to us as of December 31, 2016 under our financing arrangements outstanding), our assets would need to
yield an annual return (net of expenses) of approximately 1.54% in order to cover the annual interest payments on our outstanding debt.

The agreements governing our debt financing arrangements contain, and agreements governing future debt financing arrangements may contain, various
covenants which, if not complied with, could have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet our investment obligations and to pay distributions to our stockholders.

The agreements governing certain of our debt financing arrangements contain, and agreements governing future debt financing arrangements
may contain, certain financial and operational covenants. These covenants require us and our subsidiaries to, among other things, maintain certain financial ratios, including asset coverage and minimum stockholders equity. Compliance with
these covenants depends on many factors, some of which are beyond our and their control. In the event of deterioration in the capital markets and pricing levels subsequent to this period, net unrealized depreciation in our and our subsidiaries
portfolios may increase in the future and could result in non-compliance with certain covenants, or our taking actions which could disrupt our business and impact our ability to meet our investment objectives.
There can be no assurance that we and our subsidiaries will continue to comply with the covenants under our financing arrangements. Failure to comply with these covenants could result in a default which, if we and our subsidiaries were unable to
obtain a waiver from the debt holders, could accelerate repayment under any or all of our and their debt instruments and thereby force us to liquidate investments at a disadvantageous time and/or at a price which could result in losses, or allow our
lenders to sell assets pledged as collateral under our financing arrangements in order to satisfy amounts due thereunder. These occurrences could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and ability
to pay distributions. See Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsFinancial Condition, Liquidity and Capital ResourcesFinancing Arrangements for a more detailed
discussion of the terms of our debt financing arrangements.

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

On December 15, 2014, through our two wholly-owned, special-purpose financing subsidiaries, Green Creek LLC, or
Green Creek, and Schuylkill River LLC, or Schuylkill River, we entered into a debt financing arrangement with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, or Goldman, pursuant to which up to $400.0 million is available to us, or the Goldman facility.

The Goldman facility 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, or
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 Goldman facility, assets in our portfolio may be sold and/or contributed by us from time to time pursuant to an Amended and Restated Sale and Contribution Agreement, dated as of
December 15, 2014, between the Company and Green Creek, or the Sale and Contribution Agreement. The assets held by Green Creek secure the obligations of Green Creek under floating rate notes, or the notes, to be issued from time to time by
Green Creek to Schuylkill River pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of December 15, 2014, with Citibank, as trustee, or the Indenture. Pursuant to the Indenture, the aggregate principal amount of notes that may be issued by Green Creek from time
to time is $690.0 million. Schuylkill River will purchase the notes to be issued by Green Creek from time to time at a purchase price equal to their par value.

##### Table of Contents

Schuylkill River, in turn, has entered into a repurchase transaction with Goldman, pursuant
to the terms of a master repurchase agreement and the related annex and master confirmation thereto, each dated as of December 15, 2014. Pursuant to the Goldman facility, on one or more occasions beginning December 15, 2014, Goldman will
purchase notes held by Schuylkill River for an aggregate purchase price equal to 58.00% of the principal amount of notes purchased. Subject to certain conditions, the maximum principal amount of notes that may be purchased under the Goldman facility
is $690.0 million (substantially all of which have been purchased as of December 31, 2016). Accordingly, the aggregate maximum amount payable to Schuylkill River under the Goldman facility will not exceed $400.0 million (all of which
is outstanding as of December 31, 2016).

See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements contained in this annual
report on Form 10-K 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, but not limited to, those set forth below.

Our equity investment in Green Creek is subordinated to the debt obligations of Green Creek.

Any dividends or other payments in respect of our equity interest in Green Creek are subordinated in priority of payment to the notes. In addition, Green Creek is subject to certain payment restrictions
set forth in the Indenture in respect of our equity interest.

We will receive cash distributions based on our investment in
Green Creek only if Green Creek has made all required cash interest payments on the notes. We cannot assure you that distributions on the assets held by Green Creek will be sufficient to make any distributions to us or that the yield on our
investment in Green Creek will meet our expectations.

Our equity investment in Green Creek is unsecured and ranks behind all
of the creditors, known or unknown, of Green Creek, including the holders of the notes. Consequently, if the value of Green Creeks assets 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 Green Creek could be reduced. Accordingly, our investment in Green Creek 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 Green Creeks assets decreases
and Green Creek is unable to make any required payments to Schuylkill River pursuant to the terms of the notes, Schuylkill River may, in turn, be unable to make any required payments to Goldman pursuant to the terms of the Goldman facility. In such
event, if the value of Schuylkill Rivers assets is not sufficient to meet Schuylkill Rivers payment obligations to Goldman, we may be required to loan or otherwise provide additional funds to Schuylkill River to cover Schuylkill
Rivers payment obligations to Goldman, or otherwise be subject to a loss in an amount up to the entire amount of our equity investment in Schuylkill River.

Our equity investment in Schuylkill River is subordinated to the debt obligations of Schuylkill River.

Our equity investment in Schuylkill River is unsecured and ranks behind all of the creditors, known or unknown, of Schuylkill River, including Goldman. Consequently, if the value of Schuylkill
Rivers assets 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 Schuylkill
River could be reduced. Accordingly, our investment in Schuylkill River 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 Schuylkill Rivers assets decreases or Green Creek fails to make any required payments to Schuylkill
River pursuant to the terms of the notes, Schuylkill River may be unable to make any

##### Table of Contents

required payments to Goldman pursuant to the terms of the Goldman facility. In such event, if the value of Schuylkill Rivers assets is not sufficient to meet Schuylkill Rivers payment
obligations to Goldman, we may be required to loan or otherwise provide additional funds to Schuylkill River to cover Schuylkill Rivers payment obligations to Goldman, or otherwise be subject to a loss in an amount up to the entire amount of
our equity investment in Schuylkill River.

Our equity investment in Green Creek has a high degree of leverage.

The maximum aggregate principal amount of notes permitted to be issued by Green Creek under the Indenture is $690.0 million. The
maximum repurchase amount payable by Schuylkill River to Goldman under the Goldman facility in respect of the notes is $400.0 million, plus applicable financing fees. The market value of our equity investment in Green Creek may be significantly
affected by a variety of factors, including changes in the market value of the assets held by Green Creek, changes in distributions on the assets held by Green Creek, defaults and recoveries on those assets, capital gains and losses on those assets,
prepayments on those assets and other risks associated with those assets. Our investment in Green Creek 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 Goldman, as the holder of the
notes, may not be aligned with our interests, and we will not have control over remedies in respect of the notes.

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

For as long as the notes remain outstanding, Goldman has the right to act in certain circumstances with respect to the portfolio of
assets that secure the obligations of Green Creek under the notes in ways that may benefit their interests but not ours, including by exercising remedies or directing the trustee under the Indenture to declare events of default under or accelerate
the notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. Goldman 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 (as defined in
the Indenture) with respect to the notes, the trustee, which is currently Citibank N.A., or Citibank, may declare the outstanding principal amount of all of the 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 notes and triggering a repayment obligation on the part of Green Creek. Green Creek may not have proceeds sufficient to make required payments on the notes and make
any distributions to us. Any failure of Green Creek 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 shareholders in amounts sufficient to maintain our qualification as a RIC, or at all.

The market
value of the notes may decline causing Schuylkill River to borrow funds from us in order to meet certain margin posting, which would have an adverse effect on the timing of payments to us.

If at any time during the term of the Goldman facility the market value of the notes (measured by reference to the market value of Green
Creeks portfolio of assets) declines and is less than the required margin amount under the Goldman facility, or the Margin Threshold, Schuylkill River will be required to post cash collateral with Goldman in an amount at least equal to the
amount by which the market value of the notes at such time is less than the Margin Threshold. In such event, in order to satisfy this requirement, Schuylkill River intends to borrow funds from us pursuant to a revolving credit agreement between us
and Schuylkill River, or the Revolving Credit Agreement. We may, in our sole discretion, make such loans from time to time to Schuylkill River pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit



49



---

##### Table of Contents

Agreement may not exceed $400.0 million and 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 Schuylkill River to satisfy the Margin Threshold, 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 shareholders 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 Green Creek, if any, may decrease their value and reduce the value of our equity interest in Green Creek.

As investment manager, we have broad authority to direct and supervise the investment and reinvestment of the assets
held by Green Creek, 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 investment management agreement we have entered into with
Green Creek. 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 Green Creek holding assets that do not meet certain specified criteria for the investments made by it, and also could adversely impact the market value of such investments and thereby the
market value of the notes, which in turn could adversely impact the ability of Schuylkill River to meet the Margin Threshold. Any amendment, waiver, modification or other restructuring that affects the market value of the assets underlying the notes
and therefore reduces Schuylkill Rivers ability to meet the Margin Threshold, will make it more likely that Green Creek will need to retain assets, including cash, to increase the market value of the assets underlying the notes and for
Schuylkill River to post cash collateral with Goldman in an amount at least equal to the amount by which the market value of the notes is less than the Margin Threshold. Any such use of cash by Green Creek would reduce distributions available to us
or delay the timing of distributions to us.

We may not receive cash from Green Creek or Schuylkill River.

We will receive cash from Green Creek and Schuylkill River only to the extent that Green Creek or Schuylkill River, respectively, makes
distributions to us. Green Creek may make distributions to us, in turn, only to the extent permitted by the Indenture. The Indenture generally provides that distributions by Green Creek may not be made unless all amounts then due and owing with
respect to the notes have been paid in full. If we do not receive cash from Green Creek or Schuylkill River, we may be unable to make distributions to our shareholders 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 Goldman.

If Goldman fails to sell the notes back to Schuylkill River at the end of
the applicable period, Schuylkill Rivers recourse will be limited to an unsecured claim against Goldman for the difference between the value of such notes at such time and the amount that would be owing by Schuylkill River to Goldman had
Goldman performed under the Goldman facility. The ability of Goldman to satisfy such a claim will be subject to Goldmans creditworthiness at that time.

Risks Related to an Investment in Our Common Stock

Our shares are not listed on an
exchange or quoted through a quotation system, and will not be for the foreseeable future, if ever, and there can be no assurance that we will complete a liquidity event by a specified date, or at all. Therefore, stockholders will have limited
liquidity and may not receive a full return of invested capital upon selling shares.

Our shares are illiquid assets
for which there is not a secondary market and it is not expected that a secondary market will develop in the foreseeable future. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will



50

##### Table of Contents

complete a liquidity event by a specified date or at all. A liquidity event could include (1) a listing of our shares on a national securities exchange, (2) the sale of all or
substantially all of our assets either on a complete portfolio basis or individually followed by a liquidation or (3) a merger or another transaction approved by our board of directors in which our stockholders likely will receive cash or
shares of a publicly-traded company. If our shares are listed, we cannot assure stockholders that a public trading market will develop. In addition, a liquidity event involving a listing of our shares on a national securities exchange may include
certain restrictions on the ability of stockholders to sell their shares. Further, even if we do complete a liquidity event, stockholders may not receive a return of all of their invested capital.

If we do not successfully complete a liquidity event, liquidity for an investors shares will be limited to our share repurchase
program, which we have no obligation to maintain. Any shares repurchased pursuant to our share repurchase program may be purchased at a price which reflects a significant discount from the purchase price a stockholder paid for the shares being
repurchased. In addition, there are significant limitations placed on the number of shares we may repurchase under our share repurchase program, which may prevent a stockholder from selling all of its shares under the program. See Item 5.
Market for Registrants Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity SecuritiesShare Repurchase Program for a detailed description of our share repurchase program.

Only a limited number of shares may be repurchased pursuant to our share repurchase program and stockholders may not be able to sell all of their
shares under our share repurchase program or recover the amount of their investment in those shares.

Our share
repurchase program includes numerous restrictions that limit stockholders ability to sell their shares. We intend to limit the number of shares repurchased pursuant to our share repurchase program as follows: (1) we currently intend to
limit the number of shares to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares we can repurchase with the proceeds we receive from the sale of our shares under our distribution reinvestment plan, although, at the discretion of our
board of directors, we may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from the liquidation of securities investments as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares; (2) we intend to limit the number of shares to
be repurchased in any calendar year to 10% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the prior calendar year, or 2.5% in each calendar quarter (though the actual number of shares that we offer to repurchase may be less in light of the
limitations noted above); (3) unless stockholders tender all of their shares, stockholders must tender at least 25% of the number of shares they have purchased and generally must maintain a minimum balance of $5,000 subsequent to submitting a
portion of their shares for repurchase by us; and (4) to the extent that the number of shares tendered for repurchase exceeds the number of shares that we are able to purchase, we will repurchase shares on a pro rata basis, not on a first-come,
first-served basis. Further, we will have no obligation to repurchase shares if the repurchase would violate the restrictions on distributions under federal law or Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to
meet statutory tests of solvency. Any of the foregoing limitations may prevent us from accommodating all repurchase requests made in any year.

In addition, our board of directors may also amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program upon 30 days notice. We will notify stockholders of such developments (1) in our quarterly
reports or (2) by means of a separate mailing to stockholders, accompanied by disclosure in a current or periodic report under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding that we have adopted a share repurchase program, we also have discretion to not
repurchase shares, to suspend the share repurchase program and to cease repurchases. In addition, any shares repurchased pursuant to our share repurchase program may be purchased at a significant discount from the purchase price you paid for the
shares being repurchased. The share repurchase program has many limitations and should not be relied upon as a method to sell shares promptly or at a desired price.

##### Table of Contents

Stockholders who choose to participate in our share repurchase program will not know the purchase
price per share at the time they submit their intent to participate and their shares may be repurchased at a significant discount from the purchase price paid for the shares being repurchased.

In the event a stockholder chooses to participate in our share repurchase program, the stockholder will be required to provide us with
notice of intent to participate prior to knowing what the repurchase price will be on the repurchase date. Although a stockholder will have the ability to withdraw a repurchase request prior to the repurchase date, to the extent a stockholder seeks
to sell shares to us as part of our share repurchase program, the stockholder will be required to do so without knowledge of the repurchase price of our shares. In addition, when we make quarterly repurchase offers pursuant to our share repurchase
program, we may offer to repurchase shares at a price that is lower than the price that stockholders paid for shares in our continuous public offering. As a result, to the extent stockholders have the ability to sell their shares to us as part of
our share repurchase program, the price at which a stockholder may sell shares may be at a significant discount to what such stockholder paid in connection with the purchase of shares in our offering.

There is a risk that investors in our common stock may not receive distributions.

We cannot assure stockholders that we will achieve investment results that will allow us to make a specified level of cash distributions.
All distributions will be paid at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our earnings, our net investment income, our financial condition, maintenance of our RIC status, compliance with applicable BDC regulations and such other
factors as our board of directors may deem relevant from time to time. Furthermore, we are permitted to issue senior securities, including multiple classes of debt and one class of stock senior to our shares of common stock. If any such senior
securities are outstanding, we are prohibited from paying distributions to holders of shares of our common stock unless we meet the applicable asset coverage ratios at the time of distribution. As a result, we may be limited in our ability to make
distributions. See Item 1. BusinessRegulationSenior Securities.

Our distribution proceeds may exceed our
earnings. Therefore, portions of the distributions that we make may represent a return of capital to stockholders, which will lower their tax basis in their shares of common stock.

The tax treatment and characterization of our distributions may vary significantly from time to time due to the nature of our investments.
The ultimate tax characterization of our distributions made during a tax year may not finally be determined until after the end of that tax year. We may make distributions during a tax year that exceed our investment company taxable income and net
capital gains for that tax year. In such a situation, the amount by which our total distributions exceed investment company taxable income and net capital gains generally would be treated as a return of capital up to the amount of a
stockholders tax basis in the shares, with any amounts exceeding such tax basis treated as a gain from the sale or exchange of such shares. A return of capital generally is a return of a stockholders investment rather than a return of
earnings or gains derived from our investment activities. Moreover, we may pay all or a substantial portion of our distributions from the proceeds of the sale of shares of our common stock or from borrowings in anticipation of future cash flow,
which could constitute a return of stockholders capital and will lower such stockholders tax basis in our shares, which may result in increased tax liability to stockholders when they sell such shares.

We may pay distributions from proceeds of the sale of shares of our common stock, borrowings, the sale of assets or from the reimbursement of
certain expenses by our affiliate, FS Investments.

To the extent declared distributions exceed our net investment
income or cash flow from operations, we may fund distributions from the uninvested proceeds of the sale of shares of our common stock and borrowings, the sale of assets or from the reimbursement of certain expenses by our affiliate, FS Investments,
and we have not established limits on the amount of funds we may use from these sources to make future distributions. Distributions from any of the aforementioned sources could reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in our portfolio
companies.

A stockholders interest in us will be diluted if we issue additional shares, which could reduce
the overall value of an investment in us.

Our investors do not have preemptive rights to any shares we issue in the
future. Our charter authorizes us to issue 450,000,000 shares of common stock. Pursuant to our charter, a majority of our entire board of directors may amend our charter to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock without stockholder
approval. After an investor purchases shares, our board of directors may elect to sell additional shares in the future, issue equity interests in private offerings or issue share-based awards to our independent directors or employees of FSIC II
Advisor. To the extent we issue additional equity interests after an investor purchases our shares, an investors percentage ownership interest in us will be diluted. In addition, depending upon the terms and pricing of any additional offerings
and the value of our investments, an investor may also experience dilution in the book value and fair value of his or her shares.

Certain provisions of our charter and bylaws as well as provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law could deter takeover attempts and have
an adverse impact on the value of our common stock.

The Maryland General Corporation Law, or the MGCL, and our charter
and bylaws contain certain provisions that may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or making difficult a change in control of our company or the removal of our incumbent directors. Under the Business Combination Act of the MGCL, certain
business combinations between us and an interested stockholder (defined generally to include any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our outstanding shares) or an affiliate thereof is prohibited for five years
and thereafter are subject to special stockholder voting requirements, to the extent that such statute is not superseded by applicable requirements of the 1940 Act. However, our board of directors has adopted a resolution exempting from the Business
Combination Act any business combination between us and any person to the extent that such business combination receives the prior approval of our board of directors, including a majority of our directors who are not interested persons as defined in
the 1940 Act. Under the Control Share Acquisition Act of the MGCL, control shares acquired in a control share acquisition have no voting rights except to the extent approved by a vote of
two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding shares owned by the acquirer, by officers or by directors who are employees of the corporation. Our bylaws contain a provision exempting
from the Control Share Acquisition Act any and all acquisitions by any person of shares of our common stock, but such provision may be repealed at any time (before or after a control share acquisition). However, we will amend our bylaws to repeal
such provision (so as to be subject to the Control Share Acquisition Act) only if our board of directors determines that it would be in our best interests and if the staff of the SEC does not object to our determination that our being subject to the
Control Share Acquisition Act does not conflict with the 1940 Act. The Business Combination Act (if our board of directors should repeal the resolution) and the Control Share Acquisition Act (if we amend our bylaws to be subject to that Act) may
discourage others from trying to acquire control of us and increase the difficulty of consummating any offer.

In addition, at
any time that we have a class of equity securities registered under the Exchange Act and we have at least three independent directors, certain provisions of the MGCL permit our board of directors, without stockholder approval and regardless of what
is currently provided in our charter or bylaws, to implement certain takeover defenses, including adopting a classified board or increasing the vote required to remove a director. Moreover, our board of directors may, without stockholder action,
authorize the issuance of shares of stock in one or more classes or series, including preferred stock; and our board of directors may, without stockholder action, amend our charter to increase the number of shares of stock of any class or series
that we have authority to issue. These provisions may inhibit a change of control in circumstances that could give the holders of our common stock the opportunity to realize a premium over the value of our common stock.

The net asset value of our common stock may fluctuate significantly.

The net asset value of our common stock may be significantly affected by numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control and may
not be directly related to our operating performance. These factors include: (i) changes in regulatory policies or tax guidelines, particularly with respect to RICs or BDCs; (ii) loss of RIC or



53

##### Table of Contents

BDC status; (iii) changes in earnings or variations in operating results; (iv) changes in the value of our portfolio of investments; (v) changes in accounting guidelines governing
valuation of our investments; (vi) any shortfall in revenue or net income or any increase in losses from levels expected by investors; (vii) departure of our investment adviser or sub-adviser or
certain of their respective key personnel; (viii) general economic trends and other external factors; and (ix) loss of a major funding source.

Holders of any preferred stock that we may issue will have the right to elect members of the board of directors and have class voting rights on certain matters.

The 1940 Act requires that holders of shares of preferred stock must be entitled as a class to elect two directors at all times and to
elect a majority of the directors if dividends on such preferred stock are in arrears by two years or more, until such arrearage is eliminated. In addition, certain matters under the 1940 Act require the separate vote of the holders of any issued
and outstanding preferred stock, including changes in fundamental investment restrictions and conversion to open-end status and, accordingly, preferred stockholders could veto any such changes. Restrictions
imposed on the declarations and payment of dividends or other distributions to the holders of our common stock and preferred stock, both by the 1940 Act and by requirements imposed by rating agencies, might impair our ability to maintain our
qualification as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Risks Related to U.S. Federal Income Tax

We will be subject to corporate-level income tax if we are unable to qualify as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code or to satisfy the RIC annual
distribution requirements.

Besides maintaining our election to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, in order for us
to qualify as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, we must meet the following annual distribution, income source and asset diversification requirements. See Item 1. BusinessTaxation as a RIC.



| |  |  | The 90% Income Test will be satisfied if we earn at least 90% of our gross income for each tax year from dividends, interest, gains from the sale of
securities or similar sources.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Diversification Tests will be satisfied if we meet certain asset diversification requirements at the end of each quarter of our tax year. To
satisfy these requirements, at least 50% of the value of our assets must consist of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, securities of other RICs, and other securities if such securities of any one issuer do not represent more than 5%
of the value of our assets or more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer; and no more than 25% of the value of our assets can be invested in the securities, other than U.S. government securities or securities of other RICs, of
one issuer, of two or more issuers that are controlled, as determined under applicable Code rules, by us and that are engaged in the same or similar or related trades or businesses or of certain qualified publicly-traded partnerships.
Failure to meet these requirements may result in our having to dispose of certain investments quickly in order to prevent the loss of RIC status. Because most of our investments will be in private companies, and therefore will be relatively
illiquid, any such dispositions could be made at disadvantageous prices and could result in substantial losses.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In any tax year in which we qualify as a RIC, in order for us to be able to be subject to tax as a RIC, we are required to meet an annual distribution requirement. The annual distribution requirement for
RIC tax treatment will be satisfied if we distribute to our stockholders, for each tax year, dividends of an amount generally at least equal to the sum of 90% of our investment company taxable income, which is generally the sum of our ordinary net
income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, without regard to any deduction for dividends paid. Because we may use debt financing, we are subject to an asset coverage ratio requirement under
the 1940 Act and may in the future become subject to certain financial covenants under loan and credit agreements that could, under certain circumstances, restrict us from making distributions necessary to satisfy the annual distribution
requirement. If we are unable to obtain cash from other sources, we could fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax.

##### Table of Contents

We must satisfy these tests on an ongoing basis in order to maintain RIC tax treatment, and
may be required to make distributions to stockholders at times when it would be more advantageous to invest cash in our existing or other investments, or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution. Compliance with the RIC tax
requirements may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing profits and the value of our stockholders investments. Also, the rules applicable to our qualification as a RIC are complex, with many areas of uncertainty. If we
fail to qualify for or maintain RIC tax treatment for any reason and are subject to corporate income tax, the resulting corporate taxes could substantially reduce our net assets, the amount of income available for distribution and the amount of our
distributions. Such a failure may have a material adverse effect on us and on any investment in us. The Code provides certain forms of relief from RIC disqualification due to failures of the 90% Income Test or any of the Diversification Tests,
although there may be additional taxes due in such cases. We cannot assure you that we would qualify for such relief should we fail either the 90% Income Test or any of the Diversification Tests.

Some of our investments may be subject to corporate-level income tax.

We may invest in certain debt and equity investments through taxable subsidiaries and the taxable income of these taxable subsidiaries
will be subject to federal and state corporate income taxes. We may invest in certain foreign debt and equity investments which could be subject to foreign taxes (such as income tax, withholding and value added taxes).

We may have difficulty paying our required distributions if we recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, we may be required to recognize taxable income in circumstances in which we do
not receive a corresponding payment in cash. For example, our investments may include debt instruments that are treated under applicable tax rules as having original issue discount (such as debt instruments with PIK interest or, in certain cases,
increasing interest rates or debt instruments that were issued with warrants). To the extent original issue discount or PIK interest constitutes a portion of our income, we must include in taxable income each tax year a portion of the original issue
discount or PIK interest that accrues over the life of the instrument, regardless of whether cash representing such income is received by us in the same tax year. We may also have to include in income other amounts that we have not yet received in
cash, such as deferred loan origination fees that are paid after origination of the loan or are paid in non-cash compensation such as warrants or stock. We anticipate that a portion of our income may
constitute original issue discount or other income required to be included in taxable income prior to receipt of cash. Further, we may elect to amortize market discount and include such amounts in our taxable income in the current tax year, instead
of upon disposition, as not making the election would limit our ability to deduct interest expenses for tax purposes.

Because
any original issue discount or other amounts accrued will be included in our investment company taxable income for the tax year of the accrual, we may be required to make a distribution to our stockholders in order to satisfy the Annual Distribution
Requirement, even though we will not have received any corresponding cash amount. As a result, we may have difficulty meeting the Annual Distribution Requirement necessary to qualify for and maintain RIC tax treatment under Subchapter M of the Code.
We may have to sell some of our investments at times and/or at prices we would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital or forgo new investment opportunities for this purpose. If we are not able to obtain cash from other
sources, we may fail to qualify for or maintain RIC tax treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax.

Furthermore, we may invest in the equity securities of non-U.S. corporations (or other non-U.S. entities classified as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that could be treated under the Code and U.S. Treasury regulations as passive foreign investment companies and/or
controlled foreign corporations. The rules relating to investment in these types of non-U.S. entities are designed to ensure that U.S. taxpayers are either, in effect, taxed currently (or on an
accelerated basis with respect to corporate level events) or taxed at increased tax rates at distribution or disposition. In certain circumstances, these rules also could require us to



55

##### Table of Contents

recognize taxable income or gains where we do not receive a corresponding payment in cash and under recently proposed U.S. federal income tax regulations, all or a portion of such taxable income
and gains may not be considered qualifying income for purposes of the 90% Income Test.

Our portfolio investments may present special
tax issues.

Investments in below-investment grade debt instruments and certain equity securities may present special
tax issues for us. U.S. federal income tax rules are not entirely clear about issues such as when we may cease to accrue interest, original issue discount or market discount, when and to what extent deductions may be taken for bad debts or worthless
debt in equity securities, how payments received on obligations in default should be allocated between principal and interest income, as well as whether exchanges of debt instruments in a bankruptcy or workout context are taxable. Such matters could
cause us to recognize taxable income for U.S. federal income tax purposes, even in the absence of cash or economic gain, and require us to make taxable distributions to our stockholders to maintain our RIC status or preclude the imposition of either
U.S. federal corporate income or excise taxation. Additionally, because such taxable income may not be matched by corresponding cash received by us, we may be required to borrow money or dispose of other investments to be able to make distributions
to our stockholders. These and other issues will be considered by us, to the extent determined necessary, in order that we minimize the level of any U.S. federal income or excise tax that we would otherwise incur. See Item 1.
BusinessTaxation as a RIC.

If we do not qualify as a publicly offered regulated investment company, as defined
in the Code, you will be taxed as though you received a distribution of some of our expenses.

A publicly offered
regulated investment company is a RIC whose shares are either (i) continuously offered pursuant to a public offering, (ii) regularly traded on an established securities market or (iii) held by at least 500 persons at all times
during the tax year. If we do not qualify as a publicly offered regulated investment company for any tax year, a noncorporate stockholders allocable portion of our affected expenses, including our management fees, will be treated as an
additional distribution to the stockholder and will be deductible by such stockholder only to the extent permitted under the limitations described below. For noncorporate stockholders, including individuals, trusts, and estates, significant
limitations generally apply to the deductibility of certain expenses of a non-publicly offered regulated investment company, including management fees. In particular, these expenses, referred to as
miscellaneous itemized deductions, are deductible to an individual only to the extent they exceed 2% of such a stockholders adjusted gross income, are not deductible for alternative minimum tax purposes and are subject to the overall
limitation on itemized deductions imposed by the Code. Although we believe that we are currently considered a publicly offered regulated investment company, as defined in the Code, there can be no assurance, however, that we will be considered a
publicly offered regulated investment company in the future.

Legislative or regulatory tax changes could adversely affect investors.

At any time, the federal income tax laws governing RICs or the administrative interpretations of those laws or
regulations may be amended. Any of those new laws, regulations or interpretations may take effect retroactively and could adversely affect the taxation of us or our stockholders. Therefore, changes in tax laws, regulations or administrative
interpretations or any amendments thereto could diminish the value of an investment in our shares or the value or the resale potential of our investments.

Market Information

There
is currently no market for our common stock, and we do not expect that a market for our shares will develop in the foreseeable future. In March 2014, we closed our continuous public offering of shares of our common stock to new investors. Following
the closing of our continuous public offering, we have continued to issue shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan.

Set forth below is a chart describing the classes of our securities outstanding as of March 1, 2017:

Share Repurchase Program

We intend to continue to conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to our share repurchase program. Our board of directors will consider
the following factors, among others, in making its determination regarding whether to cause us to offer to repurchase shares of common stock and under what terms:



| |  |  | the effect of such repurchases on our qualification as a RIC (including the consequences of any necessary asset sales);
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the liquidity of our assets (including fees and costs associated with disposing of assets);
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our investment plans and working capital requirements;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the relative economies of scale with respect to our size;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our history in repurchasing shares of common stock or portions thereof; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the condition of the securities markets.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------

We currently intend to limit the number of shares of common stock to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares of common stock we can repurchase with the proceeds we receive from the
issuance of shares of common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan. At the discretion of our board of directors, we may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from the liquidation of securities investments as of the
end of the applicable period to repurchase shares of common stock. In addition, we 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 we offer to repurchase may be less in light of the limitations noted above.

Under our share repurchase program, we intend to offer to repurchase shares of our common stock on each date of repurchase at a price
equal to the price at which shares of common stock are issued pursuant to our



58



---

##### Table of Contents

distribution reinvestment plan on the distribution date coinciding with the applicable share repurchase date. The price at which shares of common stock are issued under our distribution
reinvestment plan will be determined by our 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 our common stock (as determined in good faith by our board of
directors or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion) immediately prior to the payment date of the distribution and (ii) not more than 2.5% greater than the net asset value per share of common stock as of such date. Our board of directors
may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program at any time upon 30 days notice.

The table below provides
information concerning our repurchases of shares of our common stock during the quarter ended December 31, 2016 pursuant to our share repurchase program.

Distributions

Subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of our board of directors, we intend to declare regular cash
distributions on a quarterly basis and pay such distributions on a monthly basis. 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. 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.

The following table reflects the cash distributions per share that we have declared and paid on our common stock during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014:

On November 3, 2016 and March 14, 2017, our board of directors declared regular monthly cash
distributions for January 2017 through March 2017 and April 2017 through June 2017, respectively, each in the amount of $0.06283 per share. These distributions have been or will be paid monthly to stockholders of record as of the monthly record
dates previously determined by our board of directors.

We have adopted an opt in distribution reinvestment plan
for our stockholders. As a result, if we make a cash distribution, stockholders will receive the distribution 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. However, certain state authorities or regulators may impose restrictions
from time to time that may prevent or limit a stockholders ability to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan.

Under our distribution reinvestment plan, cash distributions to participating stockholders will be reinvested in additional shares of our
common stock at a purchase price determined by our board of directors, or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, that is (i) not less than the net asset value per share of our common stock as determined in good faith by our board of
directors or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, immediately prior to the payment of the distribution and (ii) not more than 2.5% greater than the net asset value per share of our common stock as of such date. Any distributions
reinvested under the plan will remain taxable to a U.S. stockholder.

and our distribution reinvestment plan, including certain related tax considerations, see Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsRIC Status and Distributions.

reinvested in accordance with our distribution reinvestment plan. The total return does not consider the effect of any sales commissions or charges that may be incurred in connection with the sale of shares of our 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. The historical calculation of total return in the table should not be
considered a representation of our future total return, which may be greater or less than the return shown in the table due to a number of factors, including our ability or inability to make investments in companies that meet our investment
criteria, the interest rates payable on the debt securities we acquire, the level of our expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which we encounter competition in our
markets and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any previous period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods. The total return calculations set forth above represent the total
return on our investment portfolio during the applicable period and do not represent an actual return to stockholders.

Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act.

Overview

We were incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on July 13, 2011 and formally commenced investment
operations on June 18, 2012 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 FSIC II 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 U.S. federal income
tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. Prior to satisfying the minimum offering requirement, we had no operations except for matters relating to our organization. In March 2014, we closed our
continuous public offering of shares of common stock to new investors.

Our investment activities are managed by FSIC II
Advisor and supervised by our board of directors, a majority of whom are independent. Under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, we have agreed to pay FSIC II Advisor an annual base management fee based on the average value
of our gross assets and an incentive fee based on our performance. FSIC II Advisor has engaged GDFM to act as our investment sub-adviser. GDFM assists FSIC II Advisor in identifying investment opportunities
and makes investment recommendations for approval by FSIC II Advisor according to guidelines set by FSIC II Advisor.

Our
investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We have identified and intend to focus on the following investment categories, which we believe will allow us to generate an attractive
total return with an acceptable level of risk.

Direct Originations: We intend to leverage our relationship with GDFM
and its global sourcing and origination platform, including its industry relationships, to directly source investment opportunities. Such investments are originated or structured for us or made by us and are not generally available to the broader
market. These investments may include both debt and equity components, although we do not generally make equity investments independent of having an existing credit relationship. We believe directly originated investments may offer higher returns
and more favorable protections than broadly syndicated transactions.

Opportunistic: We intend to seek to capitalize on
market price inefficiencies by investing in loans, bonds and other securities where the market price of such investment reflects a lower value than deemed warranted by our fundamental analysis. We believe that market price inefficiencies may occur
due to, among other things, general dislocations in the markets, a misunderstanding by the market of a particular company or an industry being out of favor with the broader investment community. We seek to allocate capital to these securities that
have been misunderstood or mispriced by the market and where we believe there is an opportunity to earn an attractive return on our investment. Such opportunities may include event driven investments, anchor orders and CLOs.

In the case of event driven investments, we intend to take advantage of dislocations that arise in the markets due to an impending event
and where the markets apparent expectation of value differs substantially from our fundamental analysis. Such events may include a looming debt maturity or default, a merger, spin-off or other

corporate reorganization, an adverse regulatory or legal ruling, or a material contract expiration, any of which may significantly improve or impair a companys financial position. Compared
to other investment strategies, event driven investing depends more heavily on our ability to successfully predict the outcome of an individual event rather than on underlying macroeconomic fundamentals. As a result, successful event driven
strategies may offer both substantial diversification benefits and the ability to generate performance in uncertain market environments.

We may also invest in certain opportunities that are originated and then syndicated by a commercial or investment bank, but where we provide a capital commitment significantly above the average syndicate
participant, i.e., an anchor order. In these types of investments, we may receive fees, preferential pricing or other benefits not available to other lenders in return for our significant capital commitment. Our decision to provide an anchor order
to a syndicated transaction is predicated on a rigorous credit analysis, our familiarity with a particular company, industry or financial sponsor, and the broader investment experiences of FSIC II Advisor and GDFM.

In addition, our relationship with GSO, one of the largest CLO managers in the world, allows us to opportunistically invest in CLOs. CLOs
are a form of securitization where the cash flow from a pooled basket of syndicated loans is used to support distribution payments made to different tranches of securities. While collectively CLOs represent nearly fifty percent of the broadly
syndicated loan universe, investing in individual CLO tranches requires a high degree of investor sophistication due to their structural complexity and the illiquid nature of their securities.

Broadly Syndicated/Other: Although our primary focus is to invest in directly originated transactions and opportunistic
investments, in certain circumstances we will also invest in the broadly syndicated loan and high yield markets. Broadly syndicated loans and bonds are generally more liquid than our directly originated investments and provide a complement to our
less liquid strategies. In addition, and because we typically receive more attractive financing terms on these positions than we do on our less liquid assets, we are able to leverage the broadly syndicated portion of our portfolio in such a way that
maximizes the levered return potential of our portfolio.

Our portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in senior
secured loans and second lien secured loans of private middle market U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans of private U.S. companies. Although we do not expect a significant portion of our portfolio to be comprised of
subordinated loans, there is no limit on the amount of such loans in which we may invest. We may purchase interests in loans or make other debt investments, including investments in senior secured bonds, through secondary market transactions in the over-the-counter market or directly from our target companies as primary market or directly originated investments. 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 or otherwise acquire minority interests in the form of common or preferred equity or equity-related securities, such as rights and
warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock or other equity or the cash value of common stock or other equity, in our target companies, generally in conjunction with one of our debt investments or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm. In addition, a portion of our portfolio may be comprised of corporate bonds, CLOs, other debt securities and
derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps. FSIC II Advisor will seek to tailor our investment focus as market conditions evolve. Depending on market conditions, we may increase or decrease our exposure to less senior
portions of the capital structure or otherwise make opportunistic investments.

The senior secured loans, second lien secured
loans, and senior secured bonds, in which we invest generally have stated terms of three to seven years and subordinated debt investments that we make 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. Our debt

investments may be rated by a NRSRO and, in such case, generally will carry a rating below investment grade (rated lower than Baa3 by Moodys, or lower than BBB- by S&P. We also invest in non-rated debt securities.

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 or loss on investments, net realized gain or loss on credit default swaps, net realized gain or loss on foreign currency, net unrealized
appreciation or depreciation on investments, net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on credit default swaps and net unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency.

Net investment income is the difference between our income from interest, dividends, fees and other investment income and our operating and other expenses. Net realized gain or loss on investments is the
difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost, including the respective realized gain or loss on foreign currency for those foreign denominated investment transactions. Net gain or loss
on credit default swaps represents the amortized portion of swap premiums received, the periodic payments received and the net realized gain or loss resulting from the exit of our credit default swaps. Net realized gain or loss on foreign currency
is the portion of realized gain or loss attributable to foreign currency fluctuations. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio, including the respective unrealized
gain or loss on foreign currency for those foreign denominated investments. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on credit default swaps is the net change in the market value of our credit default swaps. Net unrealized gain or 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. In addition, we generate revenues in the form of non-recurring commitment, closing, origination, structuring or
diligence fees, monitoring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, consulting fees, prepayment fees and performance-based fees. Any such fees generated in connection with our investments will be recognized as earned. We may also generate
revenues in the form of dividends and other distributions on the equity or other securities we hold.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of management and incentive fees and other expenses under the investment advisory and
administrative services agreement, interest expense from financing arrangements and other indebtedness, and other expenses necessary for our operations. The management and incentive fees compensate FSIC II Advisor for its work in identifying,
evaluating, negotiating, executing, monitoring and servicing our investments. FSIC II Advisor is responsible for compensating our investment sub-adviser.

We reimburse FSIC II Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to our administration and operations, including FSIC II
Advisors allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel of FS Investments providing administrative services to us on behalf of FSIC II Advisor. Such services include the provision of general ledger accounting,
fund accounting, legal services, investor relations and other administrative services. FSIC II Advisor also performs, or oversees the performance of, our corporate operations and required administrative services, which includes being responsible for
the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports for our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, FSIC II Advisor assists us in calculating our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of
tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others.

The amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (1) FSIC II 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. FSIC II Advisor allocates the cost of such
services to us based on factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. Our board of directors reviews the methodology employed in determining how the expenses are allocated to us and the proposed allocation
of the administrative expenses among us and certain affiliates of FSIC II Advisor. Our board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements for expenses allocated to us 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 service 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 FSIC II 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 FSIC II 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 FSIC II Advisor.

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

Expense Reimbursement

Pursuant to an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement, dated as of May 10, 2012 and amended and restated as of
May 16, 2013, or, as amended and restated, the expense reimbursement agreement, FS Investments 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 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 to the extent that we may use such dividends or other distribution proceeds to fund our distributions to stockholders. Under those circumstances, FS
Investments will not reimburse us for the portion of such distributions to stockholders that represent a return of capital, as the purpose of the expense reimbursement agreement is not to prevent
tax-advantaged distributions to stockholders.

Under the expense reimbursement
agreement, FS Investments 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 company taxable income, 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 company taxable income or net capital gains) in each
quarter.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, we have a conditional obligation to reimburse FS Investments for
any amounts funded by FS Investments under such agreement if (and only to the extent that), during any fiscal quarter occurring within three years of the date on which FS Investments funded such amount, the sum of our net investment company taxable
income, 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 company taxable income or net
capital gains) exceeds the regular cash distributions paid by us to our stockholders; provided, however, that (i) we will only reimburse FS Investments for expense support payments made by FS Investments with respect to any calendar quarter
beginning on or after July 1, 2013 to the extent that the payment of such reimbursement (together with any other reimbursement paid during such fiscal year) does not cause other operating expenses (as defined below) (on an
annualized basis and net of any expense support payments received by us during such fiscal year) to exceed the lesser of (A) 1.75% of our average net assets attributable to shares of our common stock for the fiscal year-to-date period after taking such payments into account and (B) the percentage of our average net assets attributable to shares of our common stock represented by other operating expenses
during the fiscal year in which such expense support payment from FS Investments was made (provided, however, that this clause (B) shall not apply to any reimbursement payment which relates to an expense support payment from FS Investments made
during the same fiscal year) and (ii) we will not reimburse FS Investments for expense support payments made by FS Investments if the aggregate amount of distributions per share declared by us in such calendar quarter is less than the aggregate
amount of distributions per share declared by us in the calendar quarter in which FS Investments made the expense support payment to which such reimbursement relates. Other operating expenses means our

##### Table of Contents

total operating expenses (as defined below), excluding base management fees, incentive fees, organization and offering expenses, financing fees and costs, interest expense, brokerage
commissions and extraordinary expenses. Operating expenses means all operating costs and expenses incurred, as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for investment companies.

We or FS Investments may terminate the expense reimbursement agreement at any time. The specific amount of expenses reimbursed by FS
Investments, if any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. Upon termination of the expense reimbursement agreement by FS Investments, FS Investments will be required to fund any amounts accrued thereunder as of the date of termination.
Similarly, our conditional obligation to reimburse FS Investments pursuant to the terms of the expense reimbursement agreement shall survive the termination of such agreement by either party.

FS Investments 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 FS Investments will reimburse any portion of our expenses in future quarters. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, no amounts remained
subject to repayment by us to FS Investments.

Portfolio Investment Activity for the Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2015

During the year ended December 31, 2016, we made investments in portfolio companies totaling $1,413,343. During the
same period, we sold investments for proceeds of $510,114 and received principal repayments of $1,143,641. As of December 31, 2016, our investment portfolio, with a total fair value of $4,497,395 (64% in first lien senior secured loans, 16% in
second lien senior secured loans, 3% in senior secured bonds, 9% in subordinated debt, 1% in collateralized securities and 7% in equity/other), consisted of interests in 138 portfolio companies. The portfolio companies that comprised our portfolio
as of such date had an average annual EBITDA of approximately $125.0 million. As of December 31, 2016, the debt investments in our portfolio were purchased at a weighted average price of 97.5% of par and our estimated gross portfolio
yield, prior to leverage, was 9.4% based upon the amortized cost of our investments. For the year ended December 31, 2016, our total return was 16.07% and our total return without assuming reinvestment of distributions was 15.29%.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we made investments in portfolio companies totaling $1,904,545. During the same period, we
sold investments for proceeds of $872,333 and received principal repayments of $590,278. As of December 31, 2015, our investment portfolio, with a total fair value of $4,532,875 (62% in first lien senior secured loans, 20% in second lien senior
secured loans, 4% in senior secured bonds, 7% in subordinated debt, 2% in collateralized securities and 5% in equity/other), consisted of interests in 165 portfolio companies. The portfolio companies that comprised our portfolio as of such date had
an average annual EBITDA of approximately $168.7 million. As of December 31, 2015, the debt investments in our portfolio were purchased at a weighted average price of 98.0% of par and our estimated gross portfolio yield, prior to leverage,
was 9.6% based upon the amortized cost of our investments. For the year ended December 31, 2015, our total return was (2.37)% and our total return without assuming reinvestment of distributions was (1.94)%.

Based on our regular monthly cash distribution amount of $0.06283 per share as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and our final public
offering price of $10.60 per share, the annualized distribution rate to stockholders as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 was 7.11%. Based on our regular monthly cash distribution amount of $0.06283 per share as of December 31, 2016 and 2015
and our distribution reinvestment price of $8.95 as of December 31, 2016 and $8.90 as of December 31, 2015, the annualized distribution rate to stockholders as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 was 8.42% and 8.47%, respectively. The
annualized distribution rate to stockholders, in each case, is expressed as a percentage equal to the projected annualized distribution amount per share (which is calculated by annualizing the regular monthly cash distribution per share as of the
dates indicated above without compounding), divided by our final public offering price per share or our distribution reinvestment price, as applicable as of the dates indicated above.

Our estimated gross portfolio yield may be higher than an investors yield on an
investment in shares of our common stock. Our estimated gross portfolio yield does not reflect operating expenses that may be incurred by us. In addition, our estimated gross portfolio yield and total return figures disclosed above do not consider
the effect of any sales commissions or charges that may have been incurred in connection with the sale of shares of our common stock. Our estimated gross portfolio yield, total return and annualized distribution rate to stockholders do not represent
actual investment returns to stockholders, are subject to change and in the future may be greater or less than the rates set forth above. See Item 1A. Risk Factors for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated

portfolio company if we owned 5% or more of its voting securities.

Our investment portfolio may contain loans and other
unfunded arrangements that are in the form of lines of credit, revolving credit facilities, delayed draw credit facilities or other investments, which require us to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms
of the underlying agreements. As of December 31, 2016, we had eighteen senior secured loan investments with aggregate unfunded commitments of

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 Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2015

Revenues

We generated investment income of $488,051 and $529,462 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, in the form of
interest and fees earned on senior secured loans (first and second lien), senior

secured bonds, subordinated debt and collateralized securities in our portfolio and dividends and other distributions earned on equity/other investments in our portfolio. Such revenues represent
$450,729 and $501,746 of cash income earned as well as $37,322 and $27,716 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015,
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.

During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we generated $449,464 and $471,985, respectively, of interest income, which
represented 92.1% and 89.1%, respectively, of total investment income. The level of interest income we receive is generally related to the balance of income-producing investments multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments.

During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we generated $35,860 and $50,693, respectively, of fee income, which
represented 7.3% and 9.6%, respectively, of total investment income. Fee income is transaction based, and typically consists of amendment and consent fees, prepayment fees, structuring fees and other
non-recurring fees. As such, fee income is generally dependent on new direct origination investments and the occurrence of events at existing portfolio companies resulting in such fees.

The decrease in interest income and fee income in the aggregate during the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the year ended
December 31, 2015 was primarily due to reduced leverage levels, prepayments of certain higher-yielding assets and increased equity holdings as a result of a number of restructurings during the year ended December 31, 2016.

During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we generated $2,727 and $6,784, respectively, of dividend income, which
represented 0.6% and 1.3%, respectively, of total investment income. The decrease in dividend income was due primarily to a one-time dividend paid in respect of one of our investments during the year ended
December 31, 2015.

Expenses

Our net operating expenses, together with excise taxes, were $233,523 and $238,813 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our operating expenses include base management fees
attributed to FSIC II Advisor of $85,475 and $89,182, net of waivers by FSIC II Advisor of base management fees to which it was otherwise entitled of $12,211 and $10,252, for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our
operating expenses also include administrative services expenses attributed to FSIC II Advisor of $3,736 and $3,917 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

FSIC II Advisor is eligible to receive incentive fees based on our performance. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015,
we accrued a subordinated incentive fee on income of $62,329 and $72,664, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we accrued no capital gains incentive fees.

We recorded interest expense of $70,408 and $61,747 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, in connection with
our financing arrangements. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, fees and expenses incurred with our fund administrator, which provides various accounting and administrative services to us, totaled $1,487 and $1,305, respectively,
and fees and expenses incurred with our stock transfer agent totaled $2,055 and $2,015, respectively. Fees for our board of directors were $1,126 and $1,011 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we accrued $1,968 and $1,885, respectively, for excise taxes.

During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the ratio of our net expenses, together with excise taxes, to our average net
assets was 8.51% and 8.24%, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the ratio of our net expenses to average net assets included $70,408 and $61,747, respectively, related to interest expense, $62,329 and $72,664,
respectively, related to accruals of incentive fees and $1,968 and $1,885, respectively for excise taxes. Without such expenses, our ratio of net expenses to average net assets would have been 3.60% and 3.54% for the years ended December 31,
2016 and 2015, respectively. Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may increase or decrease our expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance and changes in amounts outstanding under our
financing facilities and in benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR, among other factors.

Net Investment Income

Our net investment income totaled $254,528 ($0.79 per share) and $290,649 ($0.92 per share) for the years ended December 31, 2016 and
2015, respectively. The decrease in net investment income can be attributed to the prepayment of several large investments and receipt of dividend income during the year ended December 31, 2015.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

We sold investments and received principal repayments of $510,114 and $1,143,641, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2016, from which we realized a net loss of $141,715. During the year
ended December 31, 2016, we also realized a net loss of $2 from settlements on foreign currency. We sold investments and received principal repayments of $872,333 and $590,278, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2015, from
which we realized a net loss of $20,241. During the year ended December 31, 2015, we also realized net losses of $19,588 and $304, respectively, on our credit default swaps and from settlements on foreign currency.

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments and Secured Borrowing and Credit Default Swaps and Unrealized Gain (Loss) on
Foreign Currency

For the year ended December 31, 2016, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on
investments totaled $304,638, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the secured borrowing

was $(134) and the net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency was $0. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on
investments totaled $(330,932), the net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency was $7 and the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our credit default swaps was $19,426. The net change in unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on our investments during the year ended December 31, 2016 was primarily driven by improvement in the high yield markets, a general tightening of credit spreads and improvements with respect to certain of our energy investments.

Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $417,315
($1.29 per share) and $(60,983) ($(0.19) per share), respectively.

Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2015 and 2014

Revenues

We generated investment income of $529,462 and $398,783 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, in the form of
interest and fees earned on senior secured loans (first and second lien), senior secured bonds, subordinated debt and collateralized securities in our portfolio and dividends and other distributions earned on equity/other investments in our
portfolio. Such revenues represent $501,746 and $375,911 of cash income earned as well as $27,716 and $22,872 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest for the years ended
December 31, 2015 and 2014, 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.

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we generated $471,985 and $337,276, respectively, of interest income, which
represented 89.1% and 84.6%, respectively, of total investment income. The increase in investment income is due primarily to the growth of our portfolio over the last year and the increase in the number of directly originated loans. The level of
investment income we receive is directly related to the balance of income-producing investments multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments.

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we generated $50,693 and $60,540, respectively, of fee income, which represented 9.6% and 15.2%, respectively, of total investment income. Fee
income is transaction based, and typically consists of amendment and consent fees, prepayment fees, structuring fees and other non-recurring fees. As such, fee income is generally dependent on new direct
origination investments and the occurrence of events at existing portfolio companies resulting in such fees.

During the years
ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we generated $6,784 and $967, respectively, of dividend income, which represented 1.3% and 0.2%, respectively, of total investment income. The increase in dividend income was due primarily to a one-time dividend paid in respect of one of our investments during the year ended December 31, 2015.

Expenses

Our net
operating expenses, together with excise taxes, were $238,813 and $156,107 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Our operating expenses include base management fees attributed to FSIC II Advisor of $89,182 and $82,325,
net of waivers by FSIC II Advisor of base management fees to which it was otherwise entitled of $10,252 and $0, for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Our operating expenses also include administrative services expenses
attributed to FSIC II Advisor of $3,917 and $4,607 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

the year ended December 31, 2014, we reversed capital gains incentive fees of $9,234 based on the performance of our portfolio. 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 for additional information about how the incentive fees are calculated.

respectively, related to accruals and reversals of accruals of incentive fees and $1,885 and $1,227, respectively for excise taxes. Without such expenses, our ratio of net expenses to average net assets would have been 3.54% and 3.38% for the years
ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may increase or decrease our expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance, and changes in benchmark

December 31, 2016, we had $347,076 in cash, which we or our wholly-owned financing subsidiaries held in custodial accounts, and $244,621 in borrowings available under our financing arrangements, subject to borrowing base and other limitations.
As of December 31, 2016, we also had broadly syndicated investments and opportunistic investments that could be sold to create additional liquidity. As of December 31, 2016, we had eighteen senior secured loan investments with aggregate
unfunded commitments of $163,449. We maintain sufficient cash on hand, available borrowings and liquid securities to fund such unfunded commitments should the need arise.

We currently generate cash primarily from cash flows from fees, interest and dividends earned from our investments as well as from the issuance of shares under our distribution reinvestment plan, and
principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments. To seek to enhance our returns, we also employ leverage as market conditions permit and at the discretion of FSIC II Advisor, but in no event will leverage employed exceed 50% of the
value of our assets, as required by the 1940 Act. See Financing Arrangements.

Prior to investing in
securities of portfolio companies, we invest the cash received from fees, interest and dividends earned from our investments and from the issuance of shares under our distribution reinvestment plan, as well as principal repayments and proceeds from
sales of our investments primarily in cash, cash equivalents, including money market funds, 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.

Continuous Public Offering, Private Placement and Distribution Reinvestment Plan

In March 2014, we closed our continuous public offering of shares of common stock to new investors. We sold 302,266,066 shares of common
stock for gross proceeds of $3,112,692 in our continuous public offering. As of March 1, 2017, we had issued a total of 346,037,048 shares of common stock and raised total gross proceeds of $3,509,634, including $200 of seed capital contributed
by the principals of FSIC II Advisor in December 2011 and $18,395 in proceeds raised from the principals of FSIC II Advisor, other individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor, certain members of our board of directors and certain
individuals and entities affiliated with GDFM in a private placement completed in June 2012.

Following the closing of our
continuous public offering, we have continued to issue shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan. The gross proceeds received from the issuance of our common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan during the years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 include reinvested stockholder distributions of $138,013, $116,784 and $129,347, respectively, for which we issued 16,100,331, 12,552,400 and 13,520,133 shares of common stock, respectively. During the period
from January 1, 2017 to March 1, 2017, we issued 2,327,490 shares of common stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan at an average price per share of $8.97 for gross proceeds of $20,887.

Share Repurchase Program

To provide our stockholders with limited liquidity, we intend to continue to conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to our share
repurchase program.

The following table provides information concerning our repurchases of shares of common stock pursuant to
our share repurchase program during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014:

non-usage fees, was 3.27%.

For additional information regarding our financing
arrangements, see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements contained in this annual report on Form 10-K.

RIC Status and Distributions

We have elected to be subject to tax as a RIC
under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to qualify for RIC tax treatment, we must, among other things, make distributions of an amount at least equal to 90% of our investment company taxable income, determined without regard to any
deduction for distributions paid, each tax year. As long as the distributions are declared by the later of the fifteenth day of the ninth month following the close of a tax year or the due date of the tax return for such tax year, including
extensions, distributions paid up to twelve months 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 tax status each tax year. We are also subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise taxes on certain undistributed income unless we make distributions in a timely manner to our stockholders generally of an amount at
least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of our net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (2) 98.2% of our capital gain net income, which is the excess of capital gains in excess of capital losses, or
capital gain net income (adjusted for certain ordinary losses), for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year and (3) any net ordinary income and capital gain net income
for the preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax. Any distribution declared by us during October, November or December of any calendar year, payable to stockholders of record on a
specified date in such a month and actually paid during January of the following calendar year, will be treated as if it had been paid by us, as well as received by our U.S. stockholders, on December 31 of the calendar year in which the
distribution was declared. We can offer no assurance that we will achieve results that will permit us to pay any cash distributions. If we issue senior securities, we will be prohibited from making distributions if doing so causes us to fail to
maintain the asset coverage ratios stipulated by the 1940 Act or if distributions are limited by the terms of any of our borrowings.

Subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of our board of directors,
we intend to declare regular cash distributions on a quarterly basis and pay such distributions on a monthly 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. 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.

The following table reflects the cash distributions per share that we have declared and paid on our common stock during the years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014:



|                                |  |              |        |  |        |   |         |

|For the Year Ended December 31, |  | Per Share    |        |  | Amount |  
|2014                            |  | $            | 0.7395 |  |        | $ | 223,554 | 
|2015                            |  | $            | 0.7540 |  |        | $ | 239,145 | 
|2016                            |  | $            | 0.7540 |  |        | $ | 244,088 | 

On November 3, 2016 and March 14, 2017, our board of directors declared regular monthly cash
distributions for January 2017 through March 2017 and April 2017 through June 2017, respectively, each in the amount of $0.06283 per share. These distributions have been or will be paid monthly to stockholders of record as of monthly record dates
previously determined by our board of directors.

We have adopted an opt in distribution reinvestment plan for our
stockholders. As a result, if we make a cash distribution, stockholders will receive the distribution 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. However, certain state authorities or regulators may impose restrictions from time to time that may prevent or limit a stockholders ability to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan.

Under our distribution reinvestment plan, cash distributions to participating stockholders will be reinvested in additional
shares of our common stock at a purchase price determined by our board of directors, or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, that is (i) not less than the net asset value per share of our common stock as determined in good faith by our
board of directors or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, immediately prior to the payment of the distribution and (ii) not more than 2.5% greater than the net asset value per share of our common stock as of such date. Although
distributions paid in the form of additional shares of common stock will generally be subject to U.S. federal, state and local taxes in the same manner as cash distributions, stockholders who elect to participate in our distribution reinvestment
plan will not receive any corresponding cash distributions with which to pay any such applicable taxes. Stockholders receiving distributions in the form of additional shares of common stock will be treated as receiving a distribution in the amount
of the fair market value of our shares of common stock.

We intend to continue to make our regular distributions in the form
of cash, unless stockholders elect to receive their distributions in additional shares of our common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan. From time to time and not less than quarterly, FSIC II Advisor must review our accounts to determine
whether cash distributions are appropriate. We intend to distribute pro rata to our stockholders funds received by us which FSIC II Advisor deems unnecessary for us to retain. We may fund our cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of
funds legally available to us, including proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, gains from credit default swaps, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, and dividends or other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and reimbursements of certain expenses
by FS Investments and its affiliates, including through the waiver of certain investment advisory fees. We have not established limits on the amount of funds we may use from available sources to make distributions.

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. A return of capital generally is a return of a stockholders investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from our investment activities and
will be made after the deduction of fees and expenses, including any fees payable to FSIC II Advisor. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions will be mailed to
our stockholders. No portion of the distributions paid during the tax years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 represented a return of capital.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, FS Investments 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. For a period of time following commencement of our continuous public offering, substantial portions of our distributions were funded through the reimbursement of certain expenses by FS Investments
and its affiliates, including through the waiver of certain investment advisory fees by FSIC II Advisor, that were subject to repayment by us within three years. Any such distributions funded through expense reimbursements or waivers of advisory
fees were not based on our investment performance. No portion of the distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was funded through the reimbursement of operating expenses by FS Investments. There can be no
assurance that we will continue to achieve the performance necessary to sustain our distributions or that we will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all. FS Investments and its affiliates have no obligation to waive advisory fees
or otherwise reimburse expenses in future periods.

The following table reflects the sources of the cash distributions on a
tax basis that we have paid on our common stock during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014:

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 are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
by our board of directors. In connection with that determination, FSIC II 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 independent third-party valuation services.

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, or ASC Topic 820, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or 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 fair valuation process begins with FSIC II Advisors management team reviewing and documenting valuations of each portfolio company
or investment, which valuations may be obtained from an independent third-party valuation service, if applicable;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | FSIC II Advisors management team then provides the valuation committee with the preliminary valuations for each portfolio company or investment;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | preliminary valuations are then discussed with the valuation committee;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the valuation committee reviews the preliminary valuations and FSIC II Advisors management team, together with our independent third-party
valuation services, if applicable, supplement the preliminary valuations to reflect any comments provided by the valuation committee;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | following its review, the valuation committee will recommend that our board of directors approve our fair valuations; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

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

Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our audited 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. In making its determination of fair value, our board of directors may use any
approved independent third-party pricing or valuation services. However, our board of directors is not required to determine fair value in accordance with the valuation provided by any single source, and may use any relevant data, including
information obtained from FSIC II Advisor or any approved independent third-party valuation or pricing service that our board of directors deems to be reliable in determining fair value under the circumstances. Below is a description of factors that
FSIC II Advisors management team, any approved independent third party valuation services and our board of directors may consider when determining the fair value of our 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 may be considered include the borrowers ability to adequately service its debt, the fair market value of the borrower 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 (i.e., 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.

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 determination 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.

FSIC II Advisors management team, any approved independent third-party valuation services and our board
of directors may also consider 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. FSIC II Advisors management team, any approved independent third-party valuation services and our board of directors may also consider the size and scope of a portfolio company and its specific strengths and weaknesses,
and may apply discounts or premiums, where and as appropriate, due to the higher (or lower) financial risk and/or the smaller size of portfolio companies relative to comparable firms, as well as such other factors as our board of directors, in
consultation with FSIC II Advisors management team and any approved independent third party valuation services, if applicable, may consider relevant in assessing fair 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, the cost basis in the investment will be allocated 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 their fair value.

##### Table of Contents

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 board of directors has delegated day-to-day responsibility for implementing our valuation policy to FSIC II Advisors management team, and has authorized FSIC II Advisors management team to utilize
independent third-party valuation and pricing services that have been approved by our board of directors. The valuation committee is responsible for overseeing FSIC II Advisors implementation of the valuation process.

Our investments as of December 31, 2016 consisted primarily of debt investments that were acquired directly from the issuer.
Fifty-nine senior secured loan investments, four senior secured bond investments, and eleven subordinated debt investments, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by independent valuation firms, 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, expected cash flows, call features, anticipated prepayments and other relevant terms of
the investments. Except as described below, all of our equity/other investments were also valued by independent valuation firms, 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. Four equity/other investments, which were traded on an active public
market, were valued at their respective closing prices as of December 31, 2016. Three senior secured loan investments and an equity/other investment, which were newly-issued and purchased near December 31, 2016, 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. Except as described above, we valued our other investments by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the
date of the relevant period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services.

Our investments as of December 31, 2015 consisted primarily of debt investments that were acquired directly from the issuer. Fifty-five senior secured loan investments, three senior secured bond
investments, eight subordinated debt investments and one collateralized security, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by independent valuation firms, 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, expected cash flows, call features, anticipated prepayments and other relevant terms of the investments. Except as described below,
all of our equity/other investments were also valued by independent valuation firms, 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. One equity/other investment, which was traded on an active public market, was valued at its closing price as of
December 31, 2015. Two senior secured loan investments, which were newly-issued and purchased near December 31, 2015, 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. Except as described above, we valued our other investments by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing
services and screened for validity by such services.

We periodically benchmark the bid and ask prices we receive from the
third-party pricing services and/or dealers as applicable 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, including the use of an independent valuation firm, to determine fair value for securities for which we cannot obtain prevailing bid and ask prices through
third-party pricing services or independent dealers, or where our board of directors otherwise determines that the use of such other methods is appropriate. We periodically benchmark the valuations provided by the independent valuation firms against
the actual prices at which we purchase and sell our investments. The

valuation committee and our board of directors reviewed and approved the valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with our valuation policy.

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. Our policy is to place investments on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that interest income will be collected. We consider many factors relevant to an investment when placing it on or removing it from
non-accrual status including, but not limited to, the delinquency status of the investment, economic and business conditions, the overall financial condition of the underlying investment, the value of the
underlying collateral, bankruptcy status, if any, and any other facts or circumstances relevant to the investment. If there is reasonable doubt that we will receive any previously accrued interest, then the interest income will be written-off. Payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon the collectability of the remaining principal and
interest. Non-accrual investments may be restored to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are likely to remain current based on our judgment.

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 or security. Upon the prepayment of a loan or security, any unamortized loan origination fees and original issue discount are recorded as interest income. Structuring and other
non-recurring upfront fees are recorded as fee income when earned. We record prepayment premiums on loans and securities as fee 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 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.

We follow the guidance in ASC Topic 860 when accounting for loan participations and other partial loan sales. This guidance requires a
participation or other partial loan sale to meet the definition of a participating interest, as defined in the guidance, in order for sale treatment to be allowed. Participations or other partial loan sales which do not meet the definition of a
participating interest remain on our consolidated balance sheets and the proceeds are recorded as a secured borrowing until the participation or other partial loan sale meets the definition. Secured borrowings are carried at fair value to correspond
with the related investments, which are carried at fair value.

Capital Gains Incentive Fee

Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, the incentive fee on capital gains 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 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 Technical Practice Aid for investment companies, we 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 FSIC II Advisor if our entire portfolio was liquidated
at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though FSIC II Advisor is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized.

Subordinated Income Incentive Fee

Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, FSIC II Advisor may also be entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee on income. The subordinated incentive fee on income,
which is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20.0% of our 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 investment advisory and administrative services agreement, equal to 1.875% per quarter, or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.5%. For purposes of this fee, adjusted capital
means cumulative gross proceeds generated from sales of our common stock (including proceeds from our distribution reinvestment plan) reduced for distributions paid to stockholders from proceeds of
non-liquidating dispositions of our investments and amounts paid for share repurchases pursuant to our share repurchase program. As a result, FSIC II Advisor will not earn this incentive fee for any
quarter until our pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.875%. Once our pre-incentive fee net investment income in any
quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, FSIC II 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 our pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter equals 2.34375%, or 9.375% annually, of adjusted capital. Thereafter, FSIC II Advisor will be entitled to receive
20.0% of pre-incentive fee net investment income.

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 years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, we did not incur any interest or penalties.

Contractual Obligations

We have entered into an agreement with FSIC II
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. FSIC II Advisor and, to the extent it is required to provide such services, GDFM, are reimbursed for administrative expenses incurred on our behalf. FSIC
II Advisor agreed, effective March 5, 2015, to permanently waive a portion of the base management fee to which it is entitled under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement so that the fee received equals 1.75% of the
average value of our gross assets. See Related Party TransactionsCompensation of the Investment Adviser and Dealer Manager for a discussion of this agreement.

Compensation of the Investment Adviser and Dealer Manager

Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, FSIC II Advisor is entitled to an annual base management fee of
2.0% of the average value of our gross assets and an incentive fee based on our performance. The investment sub-advisory agreement provides that GDFM will receive 50% of all management and incentive fees
payable to FSIC II Advisor under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement with respect to each year. Effective March 5, 2015, FSIC II Advisor agreed to permanently waive a portion of its base management fee to which it is
entitled under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, so that the fee received equals 1.75% of the average value of our gross assets.

The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part of the incentive fee, which is referred to as the subordinated incentive fee on income, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20.0%
of our 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 equal to 1.875% per
quarter, or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.5%. For purposes of this fee, adjusted capital means cumulative gross proceeds generated from sales of our common stock (including proceeds from our distribution reinvestment plan) reduced for
distributions from non-liquidating dispositions of our investments and amounts paid for share repurchases pursuant to our share repurchase program. As a result, FSIC II Advisor will not earn this incentive fee for any quarter until our pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.875%. Once our pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle
rate, FSIC II 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 our pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter equals 2.34375%, or 9.375% annually, of adjusted capital. This catch-up feature allows
FSIC II Advisor to recoup the fees foregone as a result of the existence of the hurdle rate. Thereafter, FSIC II Advisor will be entitled to receive 20.0% of pre-incentive fee net investment income.

The second part of the incentive fee, which is referred to as the incentive fee on capital gains, 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 our incentive fee capital gains, which equals our 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. We accrue for the capital gains incentive fee, which, if earned, is paid annually. We accrue the capital gains 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 FSIC II 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.

We also reimburse FSIC II Advisor and GDFM for expenses necessary to perform services related to our administration and operations,
including FSIC II Advisors allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel of FS Investments providing administrative services to us on behalf of FSIC II Advisor. The amount of this reimbursement for FSIC II
Advisor is set at the lesser of (1) FSIC II Advisors actual costs incurred in providing such services and (2) the amount that we estimate we would be required to pay

##### Table of Contents

alternative service providers for comparable services in the same geographic location. FSIC II Advisor is required to allocate the cost of such services to us based on factors such as total
assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. Our board of directors reviews the methodology employed in determining how the expenses are allocated to us and the proposed allocation of administrative expenses among us and
certain affiliates of FSIC II Advisor. Our board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements for expenses allocated to us 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 service 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 FSIC II 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 FSIC II 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 FSIC II Advisor.

Under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, we, either directly or through reimbursement to FSIC II Advisor
or its affiliates, were responsible for our organization and offering costs in an amount up to 1.5% of gross proceeds raised in our continuous public offering. Organization and offering costs primarily included legal, accounting, printing and
other expenses relating to our continuous public offering, including costs associated with technology integration between our systems and those of our selected broker-dealers, marketing expenses, salaries and direct expenses of FSIC II
Advisors personnel, employees of our affiliates and others while engaged in registering and marketing our common stock, which included the development of marketing materials and presentations, training and educational meetings, and generally
coordinating the marketing process for us.

Prior to satisfaction of the minimum offering requirement and for a period of time
thereafter, FS Investments funded certain of our organization and offering costs. Following this period, we paid certain of our organization and offering costs directly and reimbursed FSIC II Advisor for offering costs incurred by FSIC II
Advisor on our behalf, including marketing expenses, salaries and other direct expenses of FSIC II Advisors personnel and employees of its affiliates while engaged in registering and marketing shares of our common stock. Organization and
offering costs funded directly by FS Investments were recorded by us as a contribution to capital. The offering costs were offset against capital in excess of par value on our consolidated financial statements and the organization costs were charged
to expense as incurred. All other offering costs, including costs incurred directly by us, amounts reimbursed to FSIC II Advisor for ongoing offering costs and any reimbursements paid to FS Investments for organization and offering costs
previously funded, were recorded as a reduction of capital.

The dealer manager for our continuous public
offering was FS Investment Solutions, LLC (formerly FS2Capital Partners, LLC), or FS Investment Solutions, which is one of our affiliates. Under the dealer manager agreement among us, FSIC II Advisor and FS Investment Solutions, FS Investment Solutions was entitled to receive selling commissions and
dealer manager fees in connection with the sale of shares of our common stock in our continuous public offering, all or a portion of which were re-allowed to selected broker-dealers. The dealer manager
agreement terminated in connection with the closing of our continuous public offering in March 2014.

Expense Reimbursement

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, FS Investments 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 proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock or borrowings. See OverviewExpense Reimbursement for a detailed description of the expense reimbursement agreement.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

FSIC II Advisors senior management team is comprised of substantially the same personnel as the senior management teams of FB Income Advisor, LLC, FS Investment Advisor, LLC, FSIC III Advisor, LLC,
FSIC IV Advisor, LLC and FS Global Advisor, LLC, the investment advisers to certain other BDCs and a closed-end management investment company affiliated with FS Investments, and such personnel may serve in
similar or other capacities for the investment advisers to future investment vehicles affiliated with FS Investments. As a result, such personnel provide investment advisory services to us and each of, FS Investment Corporation, FS Energy and Power
Fund, FS Investment Corporation III, FS Investment Corporation IV and FS Global Credit Opportunities Fund. While none of FSIC II Advisor, FB Income Advisor, LLC, FS Investment Advisor, LLC, FSIC III Advisor, LLC, FSIC IV Advisor, LLC or FS
Global Advisor, LLC is currently making private corporate debt investments for clients other than us, FS Investment Corporation, FS Energy and Power Fund, FS Investment Corporation III, FS Investment Corporation IV or FS Global Credit Opportunities
Fund, respectively, any, or all, may do so in the future. In the event that FSIC II 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 FSIC II Advisor or its management team. In addition, even in the absence of FSIC II Advisor
retaining additional clients, it is possible that some investment opportunities may be provided to FS Investment Corporation, FS Energy and Power Fund, FS Investment Corporation III, FS Investment Corporation IV and/or FS Global Credit Opportunities
Fund rather than to us.

See Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements contained in this annual report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding our related party transactions and relationships, including our exemptive relief order from the SEC.

|Item 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
|-------- | -----------------------------------------------------------

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of December 31, 2016, 79.0% of our portfolio investments (based on fair value) paid variable interest rates, 13.4%
paid fixed interest rates, 6.6% were non-income producing equity or other investments and the remaining 1.0% were income producing equity/other investments. 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. However, many of our variable rate investments provide for an interest rate
floor, which may prevent our interest income from increasing until benchmark interest rates increase beyond a threshold amount. To the extent that a substantial portion of our investments may be in variable rate investments, an increase in interest
rates beyond this threshold would make it easier for us to meet or exceed the hurdle rate applicable to the subordinated incentive fee on income under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement we have entered into with FSIC II
Advisor, and may result in a substantial increase in our net investment income and to the amount of incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to our increased pre-incentive fee net investment
income.

Pursuant to the terms of all of our financing arrangements, borrowings are at a floating rate based on LIBOR. To the
extent that any present or future credit facilities, total return swap agreements 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 or financing arrangements in effect, 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 the composition of our investment portfolio, including the accrual status of our investments, and our financing arrangements in effect as of
December 31, 2016 (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 years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, we did not engage in interest rate
hedging activities.

In addition, we may have risk regarding portfolio valuation. See Item 7. Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsCritical Accounting PoliciesValuation of Portfolio Investments.

MANAGEMENTS REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL
REPORTING

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting. In connection with the preparation of our annual financial statements, management has conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework set forth in Internal
ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013 (COSO). Managements assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over
financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of those controls. Based on this evaluation, we have concluded that, as of December 31, 2016, our internal control over financial reporting was effective to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2016 has been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

FS Investment Corporation II

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

We have audited FS Investment Corporation IIs internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on
criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013. FS Investment Corporation IIs management is responsible for maintaining effective
internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on the companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our
audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over
financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and
operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies
and procedures that (a) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (b) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management
and directors of the company; and (c) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.

In our opinion, FS Investment Corporation II maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated
balance sheets, including the consolidated schedules of investments, of FS Investment Corporation II as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 2016 and our report dated March 15, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

FS Investment Corporation II

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, including the consolidated schedules of investments, of FS Investment
Corporation II (the Company) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 by correspondence with the
custodians and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of FS Investment Corporation II as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States), FS Investment Corporation IIs internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013, and our report dated March 15, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of FS Investment Corporation IIs internal control over financial reporting.

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)





Note 1. Principal Business and
Organization

FS Investment Corporation II, or the Company, was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the
State of Maryland on July 13, 2011 and formally commenced investment operations on June 18, 2012. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified,
closed-end management investment company that 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. In addition, the
Company has elected to be treated for U.S. 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 December 31, 2016, the Company had eight wholly-owned financing subsidiaries and four wholly-owned subsidiaries through which it holds interests in certain non-controlled and non-affiliated portfolio companies and one wholly-owned subsidiary through which it expects to hold interests in certain non-controlled and non-affiliated portfolio companies. The consolidated financial statements
include both the Companys accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain of the Companys consolidated
subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes.

The Companys investment objectives are to generate
current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in senior secured loans and second lien secured loans of private U.S. companies. The Company seeks to generate superior risk-adjusted returns by focusing
on debt investments in a broad array of private U.S. companies, including middle market companies, which the Company defines as companies with annual revenues of $50 million to $2.5 billion at the time of investment. The Company may
purchase interests in loans or make other debt investments, including investments in senior secured bonds, through secondary market transactions in the
over-the-counter market or directly from the Companys target companies as primary market or directly originated investments. In connection with the
Companys debt investments, the Company may on occasion receive equity interests such as warrants or options as additional consideration. The Company may also purchase or otherwise acquire minority interests in the form of common or preferred
equity or equity-related securities, such as rights and warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock or other equity or the cash value of common stock or other equity, in our target companies, generally in conjunction with one
of the Companys debt investments or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm. In addition, a portion of the Companys portfolio may
be comprised of corporate bonds, collateralized loan obligations, or CLOs, other debt securities and derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of
Presentation: The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. The Company is considered an investment company under GAAP and
follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies under Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-08, Financial ServicesInvestment Companies. The Company has
evaluated the impact of subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the audited consolidated 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.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies (continued)



Cash and Cash Equivalents:The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. All cash balances are maintained with high credit quality financial institutions, which are members of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Valuation of Portfolio Investments:The Company determines the net asset value of its investment portfolio each quarter.
Securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Companys board of directors. In connection with that determination, the Companys investment adviser, FSIC II Advisor, LLC, or FSIC II Advisor, provides the
Companys 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 independent third-party valuation services.

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosure, or ASC Topic 820, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or 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, the Company undertakes a multi-step valuation process
each quarter, as described below:



| |  |  | the Companys quarterly fair valuation process begins with FSIC II Advisors management team reviewing and documenting valuations of each
portfolio company or investment, which valuations may be obtained from an independent third-party valuation service, if applicable;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | FSIC II Advisors management team then provides the valuation committee with preliminary valuations for each portfolio company or investment;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | preliminary valuations are then discussed with the valuation committee;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the Companys valuation committee reviews the preliminary valuations and FSIC II Advisors management team, together with its independent
third-party valuation services, if applicable, supplement the preliminary valuations to reflect any comments provided by the valuation committee;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | following its review, the valuation committee will recommend that the Companys board of directors approve the fair valuations; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the Companys board of directors discusses the valuations and determines the fair value of each such investment in the Companys portfolio in
good faith based on various statistical and other factors, including the input and recommendation of FSIC II Advisor, the valuation committee and any independent third-party valuation services, if applicable.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies (continued)



Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly,
these notes to the Companys audited consolidated financial statements refer to the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations and any change in such valuations on the Companys consolidated financial statements. In
making its determination of fair value, the Companys board of directors may use any approved independent third-party pricing or valuation services. However, the Companys board of directors is not required to determine fair value in
accordance with the valuation provided by any single source, and may use any relevant data, including information obtained from FSIC II Advisor, or any approved independent third-party valuation or pricing service that the Companys board of
directors deems to be reliable in determining fair value under the circumstances. Below is a description of factors that FSIC II Advisors management team, any approved independent third-party valuation services and the Companys board of
directors may consider when determining the fair value of the Companys 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, the Company may incorporate these factors into discounted cash flow models to arrive at fair value. Other factors that may be considered include the borrowers ability to adequately
service its debt, the fair market value of the borrower in relation to the face amount of its outstanding debt and the quality of collateral securing the Companys 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 (i.e., 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.

The Companys equity interests in portfolio companies for which there is no liquid public market are valued at fair value. The
Companys board of directors, in its determination of fair value, may consider various factors, such as 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. All of these factors may be subject to adjustments based upon the particular circumstances of a portfolio company or the Companys actual investment position. For example, adjustments to EBITDA may
take into account compensation to previous owners or acquisition, recapitalization, restructuring or other related items.

FSIC II Advisors management team, any approved independent third-party valuation services and the Companys board of directors
may also consider 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. FSIC II Advisors management team, any approved independent third party valuation services and the Companys board of directors may also consider the size and scope of a portfolio company and its specific strengths and weaknesses,
and may apply discounts or premiums, where and as appropriate, due to the higher (or lower) financial risk and/or the smaller size of portfolio companies relative to comparable firms, as well as such other factors as the Companys board of
directors, in consultation with FSIC II Advisors management team and any approved independent third-party valuation services, if applicable, may consider relevant in assessing fair value. Generally, the value of the Companys 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.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies (continued)



When the Company receives warrants or other equity securities at nominal or no
additional cost in connection with an investment in a debt security, the cost basis in the investment will be allocated between the debt securities and any such warrants or other equity securities received at the time of origination. The
Companys board of directors subsequently values these warrants or other equity securities received at their fair value.

The fair values of the Companys investments are determined in good faith by the Companys board of directors. The
Companys board of directors is solely responsible for the valuation of the Companys portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to the Companys valuation policy and consistently applied valuation
process. The Companys board of directors has delegated day-to-day responsibility for implementing its valuation policy to FSIC II Advisors management team,
and has authorized FSIC II Advisors management team to utilize independent third-party valuation and pricing services that have been approved by the Companys board of directors. The valuation committee is responsible for overseeing FSIC
II Advisors implementation of the valuation process.

Revenue Recognition:Security transactions are
accounted for on the trade date. The Company records interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that it expects to collect such amounts. The Company records dividend income on the ex-dividend date. The
Company does not accrue as a receivable interest or dividends on loans and securities if it has reason to doubt its ability to collect such income. The Companys policy is to place investments on
non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that interest income will be collected. The Company considers many factors relevant to an investment when placing it on or removing it from non-accrual status including, but not limited to, the delinquency status of the investment, economic and business conditions, the overall financial condition of the underlying investment, the value of the underlying
collateral, bankruptcy status, if any, and any other facts or circumstances relevant to the investment. If there is reasonable doubt that the Company will receive any previously accrued interest, then the interest income will be written-off. Payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon the collectability of the remaining principal and
interest. Non-accrual investments may be restored to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are likely to remain current based on the Companys judgment.

Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount are capitalized and the Company amortizes such amounts as interest
income over the respective term of the loan or security. Upon the prepayment of a loan or security, any unamortized loan origination fees and original issue discount are recorded as interest income. Structuring and other non-recurring upfront fees are recorded as fee income when earned. The Company records prepayment premiums on loans and securities as fee income when it receives 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. The Company measures 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 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.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies (continued)



Capital Gains Incentive Fee: The Company entered into an investment advisory and
administrative services agreement with FSIC II Advisor, dated as of February 8, 2012, or the investment advisory and administrative services agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, the
incentive fee on capital gains is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of such 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 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, the Company includes 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 FSIC II Advisor if the Companys entire portfolio was liquidated at its
fair value as of the balance sheet date even though FSIC II Advisor is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized.

Subordinated Income Incentive Fee: Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, FSIC II Advisor may
also be entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee on income. The subordinated incentive fee on income, which is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20.0% of the Companys
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 equal to 1.875% per quarter, or
an annualized hurdle rate of 7.5%. For purposes of this fee, adjusted capital means cumulative gross proceeds generated from sales of the Companys common stock (including proceeds from its distribution reinvestment plan)
reduced for distributions paid to stockholders from proceeds of non-liquidating dispositions of the Companys investments and amounts paid for share repurchases pursuant to the Companys share
repurchase program. As a result, FSIC II Advisor will not earn this part of the incentive fee for any quarter until the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the
hurdle rate of 1.875%. Once the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, FSIC II 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 2.34375%, or 9.375% annually, of adjusted capital. Thereafter, FSIC II Advisor will be entitled to receive 20.0% of the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income.

Credit Default Swaps: When the Company is
the buyer of a credit default swap contract, the Company is entitled to receive the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation (or basket of debt obligations) from the counterparty to the contract if a specified credit event
with respect to the issuer of the debt obligation, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer or sovereign issuer, occurs. In return, the Company pays the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no
credit event has occurred. If no specified credit event occurs, the Company would have paid the stream of payments and received no proceeds from the contract. When the Company is the seller of a credit default swap contract, it receives the stream
of payments, but is obligated to pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional amount of the swap and, in certain instances, take delivery of securities of the reference entity upon the occurrence of a



129

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies (continued)



credit event, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay principal or interest, restructuring,
obligation acceleration and repudiation or moratorium. If the Company is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make would be an amount equal to the
notional amount of the agreement. This potential amount would be partially offset by any recovery value of the respective referenced obligation, or net amount received from the settlement of a buy protection credit default swap agreement entered
into by the Company for the same referenced obligation. As the seller of a credit default swap contract, the Company may create economic leverage because, in addition to its total net assets, the Company is subject to investment exposure on the
notional amount of the swap. The interest fee paid or received on the swap contract, which is based on a specified interest rate on a fixed notional amount, is accrued daily and is recorded as realized loss or gain. The Company records an increase
or decrease to unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on credit default swaps in an amount equal to the change in daily valuation. Upfront payments or receipts, if any, are recorded as unamortized swap premiums paid or received, respectively, and
are amortized over the life of the swap contract as realized losses or gains. For financial reporting purposes, unamortized upfront payments, if any, are netted with unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on credit default swaps to
determine the market value of swaps as presented in Note 7 and Note 9. The Company will segregate assets in the form of cash and/or liquid securities in an amount equal to any unrealized depreciation on the credit default swaps of which it is the
buyer, marked-to-market on a daily basis. The Company will segregate assets in the form of cash and/or liquid securities in an amount equal to the notional amount of the
credit default swaps of which it is the seller. These transactions involve certain risks, including the risk that the seller may be unable to fulfill the transaction. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had no outstanding credit default swap
contracts.

Income Taxes:The Company has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and
intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To qualify for and maintain qualification as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain
source-of-income and asset diversification requirements, as well as distribute to its stockholders, for each tax year, at least 90% of its investment company
taxable income, which is generally the Companys net ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses, determined without regard to any deduction for
distributions paid. As a RIC, the Company will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any income that it distributes to its stockholders. The Company intends to make distributions in an amount sufficient to qualify for and
maintain its RIC tax status each tax year and to not pay any U.S. federal income taxes on income so distributed. The Company is also subject to nondeductible federal excise taxes if it does not distribute in respect of each calendar year an amount
at least equal to the sum of 98% of net ordinary income, 98.2% of any capital gain net income, if any, and any recognized and undistributed income from prior years for which it paid no U.S. federal income taxes. The Company accrued $1,968, $1,885
and $1,227 in estimated excise taxes payable in respect of income received during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company paid $2,069, $1,150 and
$469, respectively, in excise and other taxes.

Uncertainty in Income Taxes:The Company evaluates its 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 the Companys 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. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to

Policies (continued)



unrecognized tax liabilities as income tax expense in its consolidated statements of operations. During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not incur any
interest or penalties.

The Company has analyzed the tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for all open
tax years, and has concluded that no provision for income tax for uncertain tax positions is required in the Companys financial statements. The Companys federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the
applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.

Distributions:Distributions to the Companys stockholders are recorded as of the record date. Subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of the Companys
board of directors, the Company currently intends to declare regular cash distributions on a quarterly basis and pay such distributions on a monthly basis. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed or deemed distributed at least annually.

Partial Loan Sales: The Company follows the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 860, Transfers and
Servicing, or ASC Topic 860, when accounting for loan participations and other partial loan sales. This guidance requires a participation or other partial loan sale to meet the definition of a participating interest, as defined in the guidance,
in order for sale treatment to be allowed. Participations or other partial loan sales which do not meet the definition of a participating interest remain on the Companys consolidated balance sheets and the proceeds are recorded as a secured
borrowing until the participation or other partial loan sale meets the definition. Secured borrowings are carried at fair value to correspond with the related investments, which are carried at fair value. See Note 8 for additional information.

Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015
and 2014 have been reclassified to conform to the classifications used to prepare the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016. These reclassifications had no material impact on the Companys consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows as previously reported.

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board, or the FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, InterestImputation of Interest, or ASU 2015-03, to simplify the
presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under pre-existing guidance, debt issuance costs were recognized as a deferred charge and presented as an asset on the balance sheet. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized liability for indebtedness be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that liability, consistent with debt
discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-15, InterestImputation of Interest, or ASU 2015-15, to update
the guidance to include SEC staff views regarding the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements. Given the
absence of authoritative guidance within ASU 2015-03 for debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements, the SEC
indicated that it would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement.

Commencing January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-03 and changed its
method of disclosing debt issuance costs for its repurchase agreements and term loan credit facility. ASU 2015-03 affects the

presentation and disclosure of such costs in the Companys financial statements. There is no change to the Companys recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs. In accordance
with ASU 2015-15, the Company elected to continue to present debt issuance costs associated with line-of-credit arrangements as
an asset, unchanged from its prior method of disclosure.

Comparative financial statements of prior interim and annual periods
have been adjusted to apply the new method retrospectively. The adoption and retrospective adjustment of ASU 2015-03 had no material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows as previously reported.

13,520,133 shares of common stock. During the period from January 1, 2017 to March 1, 2017, the Company issued 2,327,490 shares of common stock pursuant to its distribution reinvestment

Share Repurchase Program

The Company intends to continue 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 the Companys assets (including fees and costs associated with disposing of assets);
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | 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 issuance 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 the
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 calendar 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. The Companys board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program at any time upon 30 days notice.

Under the Companys share repurchase program, the Company intends to offer to repurchase 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 price at which shares of common stock are issued under the Companys distribution reinvestment plan is
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 payment date of the distribution and (ii) not more than 2.5% greater than the net asset value per share as of such date.

Note 4. Related Party Transactions

Compensation of the Investment Adviser and Dealer
Manager

Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, FSIC II 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 Company commenced accruing fees under the investment advisory and administrative services
agreement on June 18, 2012, upon commencement of the Companys investment operations. Base management fees are paid on a quarterly basis in arrears. Effective March 5, 2015, FSIC II Advisor agreed to permanently waive a portion of its
base management fee to which it is entitled under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, so that the fee received equals 1.75% of the average value of the Companys gross assets.

The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part of the incentive fee, which is referred to as the subordinated incentive fee on
income, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20.0% of the Companys 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 equal to 1.875% per quarter, or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.5%. For purposes of this fee, adjusted capital means cumulative gross proceeds generated from sales of the
Companys common stock (including proceeds from its distribution reinvestment plan) reduced for



134

distributions from non-liquidating dispositions of the Companys investments paid to stockholders and amounts paid for share repurchases pursuant to
the Companys share repurchase program. As a result, FSIC II Advisor will not earn this part of the incentive fee for any quarter until the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income for such
quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.875%. Once the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, FSIC II 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 2.34375%, or 9.375% annually, of adjusted capital. This catch-up feature allows FSIC II Advisor to
recoup the fees foregone as a result of the existence of the hurdle rate. Thereafter, FSIC II Advisor will be entitled to receive 20.0% of the Companys pre-incentive fee net investment income.

The second part of the incentive fee, which is referred to as the incentive fee on capital gains, 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 Company accrues for the capital gains incentive fee, which, if earned, is paid annually. The Company accrues the capital gains 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 FSIC II 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.

Pursuant to an investment sub-advisory agreement, or the investment sub-advisory agreement, between FSIC II Advisor and GSO / Blackstone Debt Funds Management LLC, or GDFM, GDFM will receive 50% of all management and incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor under the investment
advisory and administrative services agreement with respect to each year.

The Company reimburses FSIC II Advisor for expenses
necessary to perform services related to the Companys administration and operations, including FSIC II Advisors allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel of Franklin Square Holdings, L.P., or FS
Investments, the Companys sponsor and an affiliate of FSIC II Advisor, providing administrative services to the Company on behalf of FSIC II Advisor. The amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (1) FSIC II 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. FSIC II Advisor is required to
allocate the cost of such services to the Company based on factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. The Companys board of directors reviews the methodology employed in determining how the
expenses are allocated to the Company and the proposed allocation of the administrative expenses among the Company and certain affiliates of FSIC II Advisor. The Companys board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such
reimbursements for expenses allocated to the Company 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 service 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 FSIC II Advisor for such services as a percentage of the Companys net assets to the same ratio as reported by other

comparable BDCs. The Company does not reimburse FSIC II 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 FSIC II Advisor.

Under the investment advisory and administrative
services agreement, the Company, either directly or through reimbursement to FSIC II Advisor or its affiliates, was responsible for its organization and offering costs in an amount up to 1.5% of gross proceeds raised in the Companys
continuous public offering. Organization and offering costs primarily included legal, accounting, printing and other expenses relating to the Companys continuous public offering, including costs associated with technology integration between
the Companys systems and those of its selected broker-dealers, marketing expenses, salaries and direct expenses of FSIC II Advisors personnel, employees of its affiliates and others while engaged in registering and marketing the
Companys common stock, which included the development of marketing materials and presentations, training and educational meetings, and generally coordinating the marketing process for the Company.

Prior to satisfaction of the minimum offering requirement and for a period of time thereafter, FS Investments funded certain of the
Companys organization and offering costs. Following this period, the Company paid certain of its organization and offering costs directly and reimbursed FSIC II Advisor for offering costs incurred by FSIC II Advisor on the
Companys behalf, including marketing expenses, salaries and other direct expenses of FSIC II Advisors personnel and employees of its affiliates while engaged in registering shares of and marketing the Companys common stock.
Organization and offering costs funded directly by FS Investments were recorded by the Company as a contribution to capital. The offering costs were offset against capital in excess of par value on the consolidated financial statements and the
organization costs were charged to expense as incurred by the Company. All other offering costs, including costs incurred directly by the Company, amounts reimbursed to FSIC II Advisor for ongoing offering costs and any reimbursements paid to
FS Investments for organization and offering costs previously funded, were recorded as a reduction of capital.

The dealer manager for the Companys continuous public offering was FS Investment Solutions, LLC (formerly FS2Capital Partners, LLC), or FS Investment Solutions, which is one of the Companys affiliates. Under the dealer
manager agreement among the Company, FSIC II Advisor and FS Investment Solutions, or the dealer manager agreement, FS Investment Solutions was entitled to receive selling commissions and dealer manager fees in connection with the sale of shares of
common stock in the Companys continuous public offering, all or a portion of which were re-allowed to selected broker-dealers. The dealer manager agreement terminated in connection with the closing of
the Companys continuous public offering in March 2014.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

FSIC II Advisors senior management team is comprised of substantially the same personnel as the senior management teams of FB Income
Advisor, LLC, FS Investment Advisor, LLC, FSIC III Advisor, LLC, FSIC IV Advisor, LLC and FS Global Advisor, LLC, the investment advisers to certain other BDCs and a closed-end management investment company
affiliated with FS Investments. As a result, such personnel provide investment advisory services to the Company and each of FS Investment Corporation, FS Energy and Power Fund, FS Investment Corporation III, FS Investment Corporation IV and FS
Global Credit Opportunities Fund. While none of FSIC II Advisor, FB Income Advisor, LLC, FS Investment Advisor, LLC, FSIC III Advisor, LLC, FSIC IV Advisor, LLC or FS Global Advisor, LLC is currently making private corporate debt investments for
clients other than the Company, FS Investment Corporation, FS Energy and Power Fund, FS Investment Corporation III, FS Investment Corporation IV or FS Global Credit Opportunities Fund, respectively, any, or all, may do so in the future. In the event
that FSIC II 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 FSIC II Advisor or its management team. In addition, even in the absence of FSIC II Advisor retaining additional clients, it is possible that
some investment opportunities may be provided to FS Investment Corporation, FS Energy and Power Fund, FS Investment Corporation III, FS Investment Corporation IV and/or FS Global Credit Opportunities Fund rather than to the Company.

Exemptive Relief

As a
BDC, the Company is subject to certain regulatory restrictions in making its investments. For example, BDCs generally are not permitted to co-invest with certain affiliated entities in transactions originated
by the BDC or its affiliates in the absence of an exemptive order from the SEC. However, BDCs are permitted to, and may, simultaneously co-invest in transactions where price is the only negotiated term. In an
order dated June 4, 2013, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions
with certain affiliates of FSIC II Advisor, including FS Investment Corporation, FS Energy and Power Fund, FS Investment Corporation III, FS Investment Corporation IV and any future BDCs that are advised by FSIC II Advisor or its affiliated
investment advisers, or collectively the Companys co-investment affiliates. The Company believes this relief has and may continue to enhance its ability to further its investment objectives and
strategies. The Company believes this relief may also increase favorable investment opportunities for it, in part, by allowing the Company to participate in larger investments, together with its co-investment
affiliates, than would be available to the Company if such relief had not been obtained. Because the Company did not seek exemptive relief to engage in co-investment transactions with GDFM and its affiliates,
the Company is permitted to co-invest with GDFM and its affiliates only in accordance with existing regulatory guidance (e.g., where price is the only negotiated term).

Expense Reimbursement

Pursuant to an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement, dated as of May 10, 2012 and amended and restated as of
May 16, 2013, or, as amended and restated, the expense reimbursement agreement, FS Investments 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 to the extent that the Company may use such dividends or other distribution proceeds to fund its distributions to stockholders. Under those circumstances, FS Investments will not reimburse the
Company for the portion of such distributions to stockholders that represent a return of capital, as the purpose of the expense reimbursement agreement is not to prevent tax-advantaged distributions to
stockholders.

Under the expense reimbursement agreement, FS Investments 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 its net investment company taxable income, net capital 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 company taxable income or net capital gains) in each quarter.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, the Company has a conditional obligation to reimburse FS Investments for any amounts
funded by FS Investments under such agreement if (and only to the extent that), during any fiscal quarter occurring within three years of the date on which FS Investments funded such amount, the sum of the Companys net investment company
taxable income, 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 company taxable
income or net capital gains) exceeds the regular cash distributions paid by the Company to its stockholders; provided, however, that (i) the Company will only reimburse FS Investments for expense support payments made by FS Investments with
respect to any calendar quarter beginning on or after July 1, 2013 to the extent that the payment of such reimbursement (together with any other reimbursement paid during such fiscal year) does not cause other operating expenses (as
defined below) (on an annualized basis and net of any expense support payments received by the Company during such fiscal year) to exceed the lesser of (A) 1.75% of the Companys average net assets attributable to its shares of its common stock
for the fiscal year-to-date period after taking such payments into account and (B) the percentage of the Companys average net assets attributable to shares of
its common stock represented by other operating expenses during the fiscal year in which such expense support payment from FS Investments was made (provided, however, that this clause (B) shall not apply to any reimbursement payment
which relates to an expense support payment from FS Investments made during the same fiscal year) and (ii) the Company will not reimburse FS Investments for expense support payments made by FS Investments if the aggregate amount of
distributions per share declared by the Company in such calendar quarter is less than the aggregate amount of distributions per share declared by the Company in the calendar quarter in which FS Investments made the expense support payment to which
such reimbursement relates. Other operating expenses means the Companys total operating expenses (as defined below), excluding base management fees, incentive fees, organization and offering expenses, financing fees and
costs, interest expense, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses. Operating expenses means all operating costs and expenses incurred, as determined in accordance with GAAP for investment companies.

The Company or FS Investments may terminate the expense reimbursement agreement at any time. The specific amount of expenses reimbursed
by FS Investments, if any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. Upon termination of the expense reimbursement agreement by FS Investments, FS Investments will be required to fund any amounts accrued thereunder as of the date of
termination. Similarly, the Companys conditional

obligation to reimburse FS Investments pursuant to the terms of the expense reimbursement agreement shall survive the termination of such agreement by either party.

FS Investments is controlled by the Companys chairman, president and chief executive officer, Michael C. Forman, and its
vice-chairman, David J. Adelman. There can be no assurance that the expense reimbursement agreement will remain in effect or that FS Investments will reimburse any portion of the Companys expenses in future quarters. As of December 31,
2016, there were no unreimbursed expense support payments subject to future reimbursement by the Company.

Note 5. Distributions

The following table reflects the cash distributions per share that the Company declared and paid on its common stock
during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014:



|                                |  |              |        |  |        |   |         |

|For the Year Ended December 31, |  | Per Share    |        |  | Amount |  
|2014                            |  | $            | 0.7395 |  |        | $ | 223,554 | 
|2015                            |  | $            | 0.7540 |  |        | $ | 239,145 | 
|2016                            |  | $            | 0.7540 |  |        | $ | 244,088 | 

The Company intends to declare regular cash distributions on a quarterly basis and pay such distributions
on a monthly basis. On November 3, 2016 and March 14, 2017, the Companys board of directors declared regular monthly cash distributions for January 2017 through March 2017 and April 2017 through June 2017, respectively, each in the
amount of $0.06283 per share. These distributions have been or will be paid monthly to stockholders of record as of monthly record dates previously determined by the Companys board of directors. 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 cash distribution, its stockholders will receive the distribution 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. However, certain state authorities or regulators may
impose restrictions from time to time that may prevent or limit a stockholders ability to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan.

Under the Companys distribution reinvestment plan, cash distributions to participating stockholders will be reinvested in additional shares of the Companys common stock at a purchase price
determined by the Companys board of directors, or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, that is (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 payment of the distribution and (ii) not more than 2.5% greater than the net asset value per share of the Companys common stock as of such date.
Although distributions paid in the form of additional shares of common stock will generally be subject to U.S. federal, state and local taxes in the same manner as cash distributions, stockholders who elect to participate in the Companys
distribution reinvestment plan will not receive any corresponding cash distributions with which to pay any such applicable taxes. Stockholders receiving distributions in the form of additional shares of common stock will be treated as receiving a
distribution in the amount of the fair market value of the Companys shares of common stock.

Note 5. Distributions (continued)



The Company may fund its cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds
legally available to it, including proceeds from the sale of the Companys common stock, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, gains from credit default swaps, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, and dividends or other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and expense reimbursements
from FS Investments. The Company has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions. During certain periods, the Companys distributions may exceed its earnings. As a result, it is possible
that a portion of the distributions the Company makes may represent a return of capital. A return of capital generally is a return of a stockholders investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from the Companys
investment activities. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions (i.e., paid from ordinary income, paid from net capital gains on the sale of securities, and/or a
return of capital, which is a nontaxable distribution) will be mailed to the Companys stockholders. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all. No portion of the distributions paid
during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 represented a return of capital.

For a period of time following
commencement of the Companys continuous public offering, substantial portions of the Companys distributions were funded through the reimbursement of certain expenses by FS Investments and its affiliates, including through the waiver of
certain investment advisory fees by FSIC II Advisor, that were subject to repayment by the Company within three years. The purpose of this arrangement was to ensure that no portion of the Companys distributions to stockholders was paid from
offering proceeds or borrowings. Any such distributions funded through expense reimbursements or waivers of advisory fees were not based on the Companys investment performance. No portion of the distributions paid during the years ended
December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was funded through the reimbursement of operating expenses by FS Investments. During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not repay any amounts to FS Investments for expenses
previously reimbursed or waived. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to achieve the performance necessary to sustain its distributions or that the Company will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all. FS
Investments and its affiliates have no obligation to waive advisory fees or otherwise reimburse expenses in future periods.

|(1) | During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, 92.3%, 94.8% and 94.3%, respectively, of the Companys gross investment income was attributable to
cash income earned, 2.7%, 2.7% and 3.0%, respectively, was attributable to non-cash accretion of discount and 5.0%, 2.5% and 2.7%, respectively, was attributable to paid-in-kind, or PIK, interest.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Companys net investment
income on a tax basis for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $249,910, $261,875 and $211,511, respectively. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had $57,803 of undistributed net investment income and $104,745 of
accumulated capital losses on a tax basis. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had $51,981 and $22,272, respectively, of undistributed net investment income and realized gains on a tax basis.

The Companys undistributed net investment income on a tax basis as of December 31, 2015 was adjusted following the filing of
the Companys 2015 tax return in September 2016. The adjustment was primarily due to tax-basis income received by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2015 on account of certain
collateralized securities and interests in partnerships held in its investment portfolio during such period exceeding GAAP-basis income with respect to such investments during the same period. The tax notices for such collateralized securities and
interests in partnerships 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, 2015.

The difference between the Companys GAAP-basis net investment income and its tax-basis net
investment income is primarily due to the reclassification of unamortized original issue discount and prepayment fees

recognized upon prepayment of loans from income for GAAP purposes to realized gains for tax purposes, the impact of consolidating certain subsidiaries for purposes of computing GAAP basis net
investment income but not for purposes of computing tax-basis net investment income, the reversal of non-deductible excise taxes and income recognized for tax purposes
on certain transactions but not recognized for GAAP purposes.

GAAP-basis net investment income and tax-basis net investment income during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014:

The aggregate cost of the Companys investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes totaled $4,556,618
and $4,882,382 as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The aggregate net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, secured borrowing and gain/loss on foreign currency on a tax basis was $(59,357) and $(349,507) as of

As of December 31, 2016, the Company had a deferred tax liability of
$13,056 resulting from unrealized appreciation on investments held by the Companys wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries and a deferred tax asset of $21,836 resulting from net operating losses of the Companys wholly-owned taxable
subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2016, the wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries anticipated that they would be unable to fully utilize their generated net operating losses, therefore the deferred tax asset was offset by a valuation allowance of
$8,780. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company did not record a provision for taxes related to its wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries.

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:

Level1: Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities.

Level2: Inputs that are quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities in active markets.

Level3: Inputs that are unobservable for an asset or liability.

Note 7. Fair Value of Financial
Instruments  (continued)



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.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the
Companys investments were categorized as follows in the fair value hierarchy:



|                                            |  |                   |           |  |                   |   |           |

|Level 3Significant unobservable inputs     |  |                   | 4,488,012 |  |                   |   | 4,532,852 | 
|                                            |  |                   |           |  |                   |   |           | 
|Total                                       |  | $                 | 4,497,395 |  |                   | $ | 4,532,875 |

The Company has elected the fair value option under ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments,relating
to accounting for debt obligations at their fair value for its secured borrowings which arose due to partial loan sales which did not meet the criteria for sale treatment under ASC Topic 860. The Company reports changes in the fair value of its
secured borrowing as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the secured borrowing in the consolidated statements of operations. The net gain or loss reflects the difference between the fair value and the principal
amount due on maturity.

The secured borrowing as of December 31, 2016 was valued using Level 3 inputs under the
fair value hierarchy. The Companys approach to determining fair value of the Level 3 secured borrowing is consistent with its approach to determining fair value of the Level 3 investments that are associated with the secured
borrowing. See Note 2 and Note 8 for additional information.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Companys
secured borrowing was categorized as follows in the fair value hierarchy:



|                                            |  |                   |       |  |                   |   |   |

The Companys investments as of December 31, 2016 consisted primarily of debt investments that
were acquired directly from the issuer. Fifty-nine senior secured loan investments, four senior secured bond investments, and eleven subordinated debt investments, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by independent valuation
firms, 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, expected cash flows, call features,
anticipated prepayments and other relevant terms of the investments. Except as described below, all of the Companys equity/other investments were also valued by independent valuation firms, 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. Four
equity/other investments,

which were traded on an active public market, were valued at their respective closing prices as of December 31, 2016. Three senior secured loan investments and an equity/other investment,
which were newly-issued and purchased near December 31, 2016, 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. Except as described above,
the Company valued its other investments by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by
such services.

The Companys investments as of December 31, 2015 consisted primarily of debt investments that were
acquired directly from the issuer. Fifty-five senior secured loan investments, three senior secured bond investments, eight subordinated debt investments and one collateralized security, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by
independent valuation firms, 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, expected cash flows,
call features, anticipated prepayments and other relevant terms of the investments. Except as described below, all of the Companys equity/other investments were also valued by independent valuation firms, 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. One equity/other investment, which was traded on an active public market, was valued at its closing price as of December 31, 2015. Two senior secured loan investments, which were newly-issued and purchased near December 31,
2015, 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. Except as described above, the Company valued its other investments by using the midpoint
of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services.

The Company periodically benchmarks the bid and ask prices it receives from the third-party pricing services and/or dealers, as
applicable, 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, including the use of an independent valuation firm, to determine fair value for securities for which it cannot obtain prevailing bid and ask prices
through third-party pricing services or independent dealers, or where the Companys board of directors otherwise determines that the use of such other methods is appropriate. The Company periodically benchmarks the valuations provided by the
independent valuation firms against the actual prices at which it purchases and sells its investments. The valuation committee of the Companys board of directors, or the valuation committee, and the board of directors reviewed and approved the
valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with the Companys valuation policy.

|(1) | Investments using a market quotes valuation technique were valued by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant
period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services. For investments utilizing a market comparables valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the market yield, in
isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement, and a significant increase (decrease) in any of the valuation multiples, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. 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.

isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement, and a significant increase (decrease) in any of the valuation multiples, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. 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.

2013 amendment, to its debt financing arrangement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., London Branch, or JPM, which the Company originally entered into on October 26, 2012 (and previously amended
on February 6, 2013). The April 2013 amendment, among other things: (i) increased the amount of debt financing available under the arrangement from $300,000 to $550,000; and (ii) extended the final repurchase date under the
financing arrangement from February 20, 2017 to May 20, 2017. On October 11, 2016, in connection with the entrance into certain amendments to the Juniata River facility (as defined below), Lehigh River and Cobbs Creek entered into
documentation under the JPM facility which, among other things, resulted in the prepayment and termination of the JPM facility and the merger of Lehigh River into Juniata River (as defined below).

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, Class A Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $0 and $660,000, respectively, had been
purchased by Cobbs Creek from Lehigh River and subsequently sold to JPM under the JPM facility for aggregate proceeds of $0 and $550,000, respectively. The carrying amount outstanding under the JPM facility approximated its fair value. The Company
funded each purchase of Class A Notes by Cobbs Creek through a capital contribution to Cobbs Creek. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, Cobbs Creeks liability under the JPM facility was $0 and $550,000, respectively, plus $0 and
$2,085, respectively, of accrued interest expense. The Class A Notes issued by Lehigh River and purchased by Cobbs Creek eliminate in consolidation on the Companys financial statements.

As of December 31, 2015, the fair value of assets held by Lehigh River was $1,150,608, which included assets purchased by Lehigh
River with proceeds from the issuance of Class A Notes. As of December 31, 2015, the fair value of assets held by Cobbs Creek was $345,813.

The Company incurred costs of $159 in connection with obtaining and amending the JPM facility, which the Company had recorded as deferred financing costs on its consolidated balance sheets and amortized
to interest expense over the life of the JPM facility. As of December 31, 2016, all such deferred financing costs have been amortized to interest expense.

For the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the components of total interest expense for the JPM facility were as follows:

Note 8. Financial Arrangements (continued)



Goldman Facility

On December 15, 2014, the Company, through its two wholly-owned, special-purpose financing subsidiaries, Green Creek LLC, or Green Creek, and Schuylkill River LLC, or Schuylkill River, entered into a
debt financing arrangement with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, or Goldman, pursuant to which up to $400,000 is available to the Company. 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 have been available through alternate arrangements.

The Company may
sell and/or contribute assets to Green Creek from time to time pursuant to an Amended and Restated Sale and Contribution Agreement, dated as of December 15, 2014, between the Company and Green Creek, or the Sale and Contribution Agreement. The
assets held by Green Creek secure the obligations of Green Creek under floating rate notes, or the notes, to be issued from time to time by Green Creek to Schuylkill River pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of December 15, 2014, with Citibank,
as trustee, or the Indenture. Pursuant to the Indenture, the aggregate principal amount of notes that may be issued by Green Creek from time to time is $690,000. Schuylkill River will purchase the notes to be issued by Green Creek from time to time
at a purchase price equal to their par value.

Interest on the notes under the Indenture will accrue at three-month LIBOR plus
a spread of 4.00% per annum. Principal and any unpaid interest on the notes will be due and payable on the stated maturity date of February 15, 2026. Pursuant to the Indenture, Green Creek has made certain representations and warranties
and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar transactions. The Indenture contains events of default customary for similar transactions, including: (a) the failure to make
principal payments on the notes at their stated maturity or any earlier redemption date or to make interest payments on the notes within five business days of when due; (b) the failure to disburse amounts in excess of $1 in accordance with
the priority of payments; and (c) the occurrence of certain bankruptcy and insolvency events with respect to Green Creek.

Schuylkill River, in turn, has entered into a repurchase transaction with Goldman, pursuant to the terms of a master repurchase agreement
and the related annex and master confirmation thereto, each dated as of December 15, 2014, or collectively, the Goldman facility. Pursuant to the Goldman facility, on one or more occasions beginning December 15, 2014, Goldman will purchase
notes held by Schuylkill River for an aggregate purchase price equal to 58.00% of the principal amount of notes purchased. Subject to certain conditions, the maximum principal amount of notes that may be purchased under the Goldman facility is
$690,000. Accordingly, the aggregate maximum amount payable to Schuylkill River under the Goldman facility will not exceed $400,000. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, notes in an aggregate principal amount of $689,655 and $689,655,
respectively, had been purchased by Schuylkill River from Green Creek and subsequently sold to Goldman under the Goldman facility for aggregate proceeds of $400,000 and $400,000, respectively.

Schuylkill River will repurchase the notes sold to Goldman under the Goldman facility no later than December 15, 2018. The
repurchase price paid by Schuylkill River to Goldman will be equal to the purchase price paid by Goldman for the repurchased notes, plus interest (referred to as financing fees) accrued at the applicable pricing rate under the Goldman facility. Up
until March 15, 2015, financing fees accrued on the aggregate purchase price paid by Goldman for such notes. Thereafter, financing fees commenced accruing on $400,000 (even if the aggregate purchase price paid for notes purchased by Goldman was
less than that amount),

unless and until the outstanding amount is reduced in accordance with the terms of the Goldman facility. If the Goldman facility is accelerated prior to December 15, 2018 due to an event of
default or the failure of Green Creek to commit to sell any underlying assets that become defaulted obligations within 30 days, then Schuylkill River must pay to Goldman a fee equal to the present value of the aggregate amount of the financing fees
that would have been payable to Goldman from the date of acceleration through December 15, 2018 had the acceleration not occurred. The financing fee under the Goldman facility is equal to three-month LIBOR plus a spread of up to 2.50% per annum
for the relevant period.

Goldman may require Schuylkill River to post cash collateral if the market value of the notes
(measured by reference to the market value of Green Creeks portfolio of assets) declines and is less than the required margin amount under the Goldman facility. In such event, in order to satisfy any such margin-posting requirements,
Schuylkill River intends to borrow funds from the Company pursuant to an uncommitted Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of December 15, 2014, between Schuylkill River, 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 Schuylkill River pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement may not exceed $400,000 and will
accrue interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus a spread of 0.75% per annum.

Under the Goldman facility, Schuylkill River has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for
similar transactions. The Goldman facility contains events of default customary for similar financing transactions, including: (a) failure to transfer the notes to Goldman on the applicable purchase date or repurchase the notes from Goldman on
the applicable repurchase date; (b) failure to pay certain fees and make-whole amounts when due; (c) failure to post cash collateral as required; (d) the occurrence of insolvency events with respect to Schuylkill River; and
(e) the admission by Schuylkill River of its inability to, or its intention not to, perform any of its obligations under the Goldman facility.

In connection with the notes and the Indenture, Green Creek also entered into (i) an Amended and Restated Investment Management Agreement with the Company, as investment manager, dated as of
December 15, 2014, pursuant to which the Company will manage the assets of Green Creek; and (ii) a Collateral Administration Agreement with Virtus Group, LP, or Virtus, as collateral administrator, dated as of December 15, 2014,
pursuant to which Virtus will perform certain administrative services with respect to the assets of Green Creek.

As of
December 31, 2016 and 2015, notes in an aggregate principal amount of $689,655 and $689,655, respectively, had been purchased by Schuylkill River from Green Creek and subsequently sold to Goldman under the Goldman facility for aggregate
proceeds of $400,000 and $400,000, respectively. The carrying amount outstanding under the Goldman facility approximates its fair value. The Company funded each purchase of the notes by Schuylkill River through a capital contribution to Schuylkill
River. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, Schuylkill Rivers liability under the Goldman facility was $400,000 and $400,000, respectively, plus $1,733 and $1,443, respectively, of accrued interest expense. The notes issued by Green Creek
and purchased by Schuylkill River eliminate in consolidation on the Companys financial statements.

As of
December 31, 2016 and 2015, the fair value of assets held by Green Creek was $802,689 and $717,247, respectively.

Borrowings of Wissahickon Creek are considered borrowings of the Company for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act applicable to BDCs.

Darby Creek Credit Facility

On February 20, 2014, the Companys wholly-owned, special-purpose financing subsidiary, Darby Creek LLC, or Darby Creek, entered into a revolving credit facility, or the Darby Creek facility,
with Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, or Deutsche Bank, as administrative agent, each of the lenders from time to time party thereto, the other agents party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the collateral agent and collateral
custodian under the Darby Creek facility. The Darby Creek facility provides for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount up to $250,000 on a committed basis. On August 19, 2016, the Darby Creek Credit Facility was amended to extend the end
of the revolving period from August 20, 2016 to February 19, 2019 and extend the maturity date from February 20, 2018 to August 19, 2020.

The Company may sell or contribute assets to Darby Creek from time to time and will retain a residual interest in any assets contributed through its ownership of Darby Creek or will receive fair market
value for any assets sold to Darby Creek. Darby Creek may purchase additional assets from various sources. Darby Creek has appointed the Company to manage its portfolio of assets pursuant to the terms of an investment management agreement. Darby
Creeks obligations to Deutsche Bank under the Darby Creek facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Darby Creek, including its portfolio of assets. The obligations of Darby Creek under the
Darby Creek facility are non-recourse to the Company and the Companys exposure under the facility is limited to the value of its investment in Darby Creek.

Pricing under the Darby Creek facility is based on LIBOR for a three-month interest period (for each committed lender) or the commercial
paper rate of each conduit lender, plus, in each case, a spread of 2.50% per annum. Darby Creek is subject to a non-usage fee of 0.50% per annum to the extent the aggregate principal amount available
under the Darby Creek facility is not borrowed. In addition, Darby Creek is subject to (i) a make-whole fee on a quarterly basis effectively equal to a portion of the spread that would have been payable if

the full amount under the Darby Creek facility had been borrowed, less the non-usage fee accrued during such quarter and (ii) an administration fee.
Any amounts borrowed under the Darby Creek facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on August 19, 2020.

Borrowings under the Darby Creek facility are subject to compliance with a borrowing base, pursuant to which the amount of funds available to be advanced to Darby Creek varies depending upon the types of
assets in Darby Creeks portfolio. Under the Darby Creek facility, Darby Creek has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar
facilities. The Darby Creek facility contains events of default customary for similar financing transactions, including: (a) the failure to make principal or interest payments within two business days of when due; (b) the aggregate
principal amount of the advances exceeds the borrowing base and is not cured within two business days; (c) the insolvency or bankruptcy of Darby Creek or the Company; (d) a change of control of Darby Creek shall have occurred; (e) the
failure of Darby Creek to qualify as a bankruptcy-remote entity; and (f) the minimum equity condition is not satisfied and such condition is not cured within two business days. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of
default, Deutsche Bank may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the Darby Creek facility immediately due and payable. During the continuation of an event of default, Darby Creek must pay interest at a default rate.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, $225,000 and $250,000, respectively, was outstanding under the Darby Creek facility.
The carrying amount outstanding under the Darby Creek facility approximates its fair value. The Company incurred costs of $5,179 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 December 31, 2016, $2,900 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

Juniata River Credit Facility

On November 14, 2014, the Companys wholly-owned, special-purpose financing subsidiary, Juniata River LLC, or Juniata River, entered into a $300,000 senior secured term loan facility, or the
Juniata River facility, with JPM, as administrative agent, and the financial institutions and other lenders from time to time party thereto, Citibank, as collateral agent, and Virtus Group, LP, as collateral administrator. On October 11, 2016
Juniata River entered into amendments to the Juniata River facility which, among other things, (i) provided for an immediate upsize of $550,000, resulting in a total facility amount of $850,000, (ii) extended the maturity date of the facility
to October 11, 2020 and (iii) increased the margin payable of borrowing to 2.6833% over the three-month LIBOR.

The
Company may contribute cash, loans or bonds to Juniata River from time to time, subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Juniata River facility, and will retain a residual interest in any assets contributed through its ownership of Juniata
River or will receive fair market value for any assets sold to Juniata River. Juniata River may purchase additional assets from various sources. Juniata River has appointed the Company to manage its portfolio of assets pursuant to the terms of an
investment management agreement. Juniata Rivers obligations to the lenders under the Juniata River facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Juniata River, including its portfolio of debt
securities. The obligations of Juniata River under the Juniata River facility are non-recourse to the Company, and the Companys exposure under the Juniata River facility is limited to the value of the
Companys investment in Juniata River.

Pricing under the Juniata River facility is based on LIBOR for a six month
interest period for the first interest payment due and thereafter a three-month interest period, in each case, plus a spread of 2.6833% per annum. Interest is payable in arrears beginning on April 25, 2015 and each quarter thereafter. Any
amounts borrowed under the Juniata River facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on October 11, 2020.

Note 8. Financial Arrangements (continued)



Borrowings under the Juniata River facility are subject to a compliance condition which
will be satisfied at any given time if the outstanding advances to Juniata River by the lenders minus the amount of principal and certain interest proceeds in Juniata Rivers accounts is less than or equal to fifty percent (50%) of the net
asset value of Juniata Rivers portfolio of assets.

Under the Juniata River facility, Juniata River has made certain
representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. The Juniata River facility contains events of default customary for similar financing
transactions, including: (a) the failure to make principal payments when due or any other payments within two business days of when due; (b) the $850,000 committed principal amount is not fully drawn within ninety days of the Juniata River
facilitys effective date; (c) the insolvency or bankruptcy of Juniata River or the Company; (d) a change of control of Juniata River shall have occurred; (e) the transaction documents are amended in a manner materially adverse
to JPM, as administrative agent, without JPMs consent; and (f) GDFM or an affiliate thereof ceases to be the Company investment sub-advisor. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an
event of default, JPM may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the Juniata River facility immediately due and payable.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, $850,000 and $300,000, respectively, was outstanding under the Juniata River facility. The carrying amount outstanding under the Juniata River facility approximates
its fair value. The Company incurred costs of $5,918 in connection with obtaining and amending the Juniata River facility, which the Company has recorded as deferred financing costs on its consolidated balance sheets and amortize to interest expense
over the life of the Juniata River facility. As of December 31, 2016, $5,534 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

FSIC II Revolving Credit Facility

On February 23, 2016, the Company entered into the FSIC II revolving credit facility with ING Capital LLC, or ING, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. The FSIC II revolving credit
facility provides for borrowings in U.S. dollars and certain agreed upon foreign currencies in an initial aggregate amount of up to $95,000, with an option for the Company to request, at one or more times after closing, that existing or new lenders,
at their election, provide up to $80,000 of additional commitments. On April 26, 2016, the Company entered into an incremental commitment and assumption agreement pursuant to which an additional lender provided an additional commitment of
$25,000. The FSIC II revolving credit facility provides for the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate face amount not to exceed $25,000 if one of the lenders or another party assumes the role of letter of credit issuer. The Companys
obligations under the FSIC II revolving credit facility are guaranteed by all of the Companys subsidiaries, other than its special-purpose financing subsidiaries, tax blocker subsidiaries and foreign subsidiaries. The Companys
obligations under the FSIC II revolving credit facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors thereunder.

Borrowings under the FSIC II revolving credit facility are subject to compliance with a borrowing base. Interest under the FSIC II
revolving credit facility for (i) loans for which the Company elects the base rate option is payable at a rate equal to 0.75% per annum plus the greatest of (a) the U.S. Prime Rate as published in The Wall Street Journal,
(b) the federal funds effective rate for such day plus 0.5%, (c) the three-month LIBOR plus 1% per annum and (d) zero; and (ii) loans for which the Company elects the Eurocurrency option is payable at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.75%
per annum. The FSIC II revolving credit facility will be subject to a non-usage fee of 0.375% per annum on the unused portion of the commitment under the FSIC II revolving credit facility during the revolving
period. The Company will be required to pay letter of credit participation fees and a fronting fee on the average daily amount of any lenders exposure with respect to any letters of credit issued under the FSIC II revolving credit facility.

In connection with the FSIC II revolving credit facility, the Company has made certain representations and warranties and
must comply with various covenants and reporting requirements customary for facilities of this type. In addition, the Company must comply with the following financial covenants: (a) the Companys minimum stockholders equity, measured
as of each fiscal quarter-end, must be greater than or equal to $1,350,000, plus 25% of the net proceeds of any post-closing equity offerings; and (b) the Company must maintain at all times a 200% asset
coverage ratio.

The FSIC II revolving credit facility contains events of default customary for facilities of this type. Upon
the occurrence of an event of default, ING, at the instruction of the lenders, may terminate the commitments and

declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the FSIC II revolving credit facility immediately due and payable. During the continuation of certain events of default and
subject, in certain cases, to the instructions of the lenders, the Company must pay interest at a default rate.

As of
December 31, 2016, no amounts were outstanding under the FSIC II revolving credit facility. The carrying amount outstanding under the facility approximates its fair value. The Company incurred costs of $356 in connection with obtaining the FSIC
II revolving credit facility, which the Company has recorded as deferred financing costs on its consolidated balance sheets and amortize to interest expense over the life of the FSIC II revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2016, $221

Partial Loan Sale

Certain partial loan sales do not qualify for sale accounting under ASC Topic 860 because these sales do not meet the
definition of a participating interest, as defined in the guidance, in order for sale treatment to be allowed. Participations or other partial loan sales which do not meet the definition of a participating interest remain as an investment on the
consolidated balance sheets and the portion sold is recorded as a secured borrowing in the liabilities section of the consolidated balance sheets. For these partial loan sales, the interest

Note 8. Financial Arrangements (continued)



earned on the entire loan balance is recorded within interest income and the interest earned by the buyer in the partial loan sale is recorded within interest expense in the consolidated
statements of operations.

As of December 31, 2016, the Company recognized a secured borrowing at a fair value of $8,273
and the fair value of the loan that is associated with the secured borrowing was $43,099. The secured borrowing was the result of the Companys completion of a partial sale of a senior secured loan associated with one portfolio company that did
not meet the definition of a participating interest. As a result, sale treatment was not allowed and the partial loan sale was treated as a secured borrowing.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, there was a partial loan sale of $8,132, which was issued at a discount to par of $82, and no fundings on revolving and delayed draw secured borrowings or
repayments on secured borrowings.

secured borrowing were as follows:

Note 9. Financial Instruments

The Company is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Company has in the past, and may in
the future, enter into credit default swap contracts to manage its credit risk, to gain exposure to a credit in which it may otherwise invest or to enhance its returns, which may involve elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for
financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Company has in particular classes of

financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related
and offsetting transactions are considered.

The Company may enter into swap contracts containing provisions allowing the
counterparty to terminate the contract under certain conditions, including, but not limited to, a decline in the Companys net asset value below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Company for
those swaps in a liability position.

The Company had certain credit default swap contracts outstanding during the years ended
December 31, 2015 and 2014. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had no outstanding credit default swap contracts. The effect of derivative instruments (which are not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure
purposes) on the Companys consolidated statements of operations whose primary underlying risk exposure is credit risk for the year ended December 31, 2015 was as follows:

|(1) | Per share data may be rounded in order to recompute the ending net asset value per share.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(2) | The per share data was derived by using the weighted average shares outstanding during the applicable period.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(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, as applicable, and pursuant to the Companys distribution reinvestment plan. The issuance of common stock at an offering price, net of selling 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 period.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(6) | The total return for each period presented was calculated based on the change in net asset value during the applicable period, including the impact of distributions
reinvested in accordance with the Companys distribution reinvestment plan. The total return does not consider the effect of any sales commissions or charges that may be incurred in connection with the sale of shares 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. The historical calculation of total return in
the table should not be considered a representation of the Companys future total return, which may be greater or less than the return shown in the table due to a number of factors, including the Companys ability or inability to make
investments in companies that meet its investment criteria, the interest rates payable on the debt securities the Company acquires, the level of the Companys expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized
gains or losses, the degree to which the Company encounters competition in its markets and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any previous period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in
future periods. The total return calculations set forth above represent the total return on the Companys investment portfolio during the applicable period and do not represent an actual return to stockholders.

|(7) | The total return (without assuming reinvestment of distributions) for each period presented was calculated by taking the net asset value per share as of the end of the
applicable period, adding the cash distributions per share which were declared during the applicable period and dividing the total by the net asset value per share at the beginning of the applicable period. The total return (without assuming
reinvestment of distributions) does not consider the effect of any sales commissions or charges that may be incurred in connection with the sale of shares of the Companys common stock. The total return (without assuming reinvestment of
distributions) 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. The historical calculation of total return (without assuming
reinvestment of distributions) in the table should not be considered a representation of the Companys future total return (without assuming reinvestment of distributions) which may be greater or less than the return shown in the table due to a
number of factors, including the Companys ability or inability to make investments in companies that meet its investment criteria, the interest rates payable on the debt securities the Company acquires, the level of the Companys
expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which the Company encounters competition in its markets and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for
any previous period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods. The total return calculations set forth above represent the total return (without assuming reinvestment of distributions) on the Companys
investment portfolio during the applicable period and do not represent an actual return to stockholders.

Evaluation
of Disclosure 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 Exchange Act
Rule 13(a)-15(b), we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness
of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2016. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were
(a) designed to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed and reported in an accurate manner and on a timely basis and the information that we are required to disclose
in our Exchange Act reports is accumulated and communicated to management to permit timely decisions with respect to required disclosure and (b) operating in an effective manner.

Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Exchange
Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the companys principal
executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the companys board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

Our internal control
over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

1. Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in
reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and the dispositions of our assets;

2. Provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and board of
directors; and

3. Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or
disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations,
a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
