Explanatory Note



FS Investment Corporation II, which may also be referred to
as the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our,” is filing this Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”)
to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, as originally filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 19, 2019 (the “Original Report”). The purpose of this Amendment
is to include Part III information, which was to be incorporated by reference from the Company’s definitive proxy statement
for the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. This information was previously omitted from the Original Report in reliance on General
Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K, which would permit the Part III information to be incorporated in the Original Report by reference
from the Company’s definitive proxy statement if such proxy statement is filed no later than 120 days after the fiscal year-end.
The Company is filing this Amendment to include Part III information in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2018 because a definitive proxy statement containing such information will not be filed by the Company within 120 days after
the end of the fiscal year covered by the Original Report. This Amendment also updates, amends and supplements Part IV, Item 15
of the Form 10-K to include the filing of new Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2, certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In addition,
the cover page has been updated and amended.



The Amendment does not affect any other items in the Original
Report, including the Company’s financial statements and the notes to the financial statements. Except as otherwise indicated,
the Amendment speaks as of the date of the Original Report and reflects only the changes discussed above. Accordingly, this Amendment
should be read in conjunction with the Original Report.

|Item 13. | Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
|-------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions (dollar
amounts in thousands, excluding per share amounts, unless otherwise noted)



The Company has procedures in place for
the review, approval and monitoring of transactions involving the Company and certain persons related to the Company. For example,
the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics generally prohibits any employee, officer or director from engaging in
any transaction where there is a conflict between such individual’s personal interest and the interests of the Company. Waivers
to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for any executive officer or member of the Board must be approved by the Board and are
publicly disclosed as required by applicable law and regulations. In addition, the Audit Committee is required to review and approve
all transactions with related persons (as defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act). Prior
to the occurrence of a liquidity event (which could include (1) a listing of the Company’s Shares on a national securities
exchange, (2) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either on a complete portfolio basis or individually
followed by a liquidation or (3) a merger or another transaction approved by the Board in which the Company’s stockholders
likely will receive cash or shares of a publicly-traded company), all future transactions with affiliates of the Company will be
on terms no less favorable than could be obtained from an unaffiliated third party and must be approved by a majority of the Board,
including a majority of the Independent Directors.



Compensation of the Investment Adviser



The Company is externally
managed by the Advisor pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement. On April 9, 2018, GSO /
Blackstone Debt Funds Management LLC (“GDFM”) resigned as the investment sub-adviser to the Company and terminated
the investment sub-advisory agreement (the “investment sub-advisory agreement”) betweenFSIC II Advisor, LLC
(“FSIC II Advisor”) and GDFM, effective April 9, 2018. In connection with GDFM’s resignation as the investment
sub-adviser to the Company, on April 9, 2018, the Company entered into the investment advisory and administrative services
agreement, which replaced an investment advisory and administrative services agreement, dated February 8, 2012 (the “FSIC
II Advisor investment advisory and administrative services agreement”), by and between the Company and FSIC II Advisor.



Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services
agreement, the Advisor is entitled to a base management fee calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of the average weekly value of
the Company’s gross assets (gross assets equal the total assets of the Company as set forth on the Company’s consolidated
balance sheets) and an incentive fee based on the Company’s performance. The base management fee is payable quarterly in
arrears. All or any part of the base management fee not taken as to any quarter shall be deferred without interest and may be taken
in such other quarter as the adviser shall determine.



Pursuant to the FSIC II Advisor investment advisory and administrative
services agreement, which was in effect until April 9, 2018, FSIC II Advisor was entitled to an annual base management fee
equal to 2.0% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets (gross assets equal the total assets of the Company as set
forth on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets) and an incentive fee based on the Company’s performance. Effective
March 5, 2015, FSIC II Advisor had agreed to permanently waive 0.25% of its base management fee to which it was entitled under
the FSIC II Advisor investment advisory and administrative services agreement, so that the fee received equaled 1.75% of the average
value of the Company’s gross assets. Pursuant to the investment sub-advisory agreement, GDFM was entitled to receive 50%
of all management and incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor under the FSIC II Advisor investment advisory and administrative
services agreement with respect to each year.



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). 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 each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative
basis, less the aggregate amount of any capital gain incentive fees previously paid by the Company. On a quarterly basis, the Company
accrues for the capital gains incentive fee by calculating such fees as if it were due and payable as of the end of such period.
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 the Advisor if the Company’s entire
portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though the Advisor is not entitled to an incentive
fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized.



Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory and administrative
services agreement, the Advisor may also be entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee on income. The subordinated incentive
fee on income under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, 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 1.75% per quarter (1.875% under
the FSIC II Advisor investment advisory and administrative services agreement), or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.0% (7.5% under
the FSIC II Advisor investment advisory and administrative services agreement). 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, the Advisor
will not earn this incentive fee for any quarter until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter
exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.75% (1.875% under the FSIC II Advisor investment advisory and administrative services agreement).
Once the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, the Advisor will be entitled
to a “catch-up” fee equal to the amount of the Company’s 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 2.1875%, or 8.75% annually
(2.34375%, or 9.375% annually under the FSIC II Advisor investment advisory and administrative services agreement), of the Company’s
adjusted capital. Thereafter, the Advisor will be entitled to receive 20.0% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment
income.



12







Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services
agreement, the Advisor oversees the Company’s day-to-day operations, including the provision of general ledger accounting,
fund accounting, legal services, investor relations, certain government and regulatory affairs activities, and other administrative
services. The Advisor also performs, or oversees the performance of, the Company’s corporate operations and required administrative
services, which includes being responsible for the financial records that the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports
for the Company’s stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, the Advisor assists the Company in calculating
its net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to the
Company’s stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative
and professional services rendered to the Company by others.



Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services
agreement, the Company reimburses the Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to its administration and operations,
including the Advisor’s allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel FS Investments and
KKR Credit for providing administrative services to the Company on behalf of the Advisor. The Company reimburses the Advisor no
less than monthly for expenses necessary to perform services related to the Company’s administration and operations. The
amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (1) the 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. The Advisor allocates 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 administrative expenses among
the Company and certain affiliates of the Advisor. The Company’s board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such
reimbursements for expenses allocated to it 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 the Advisor for
such services as a percentage of the Company’s net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs. The
administrative services provisions of the FSIC II Advisor investment advisory and administrative services agreement were substantially
similar to the administrative services provisions of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement.

The following table describes the fees
and expenses the Company accrued under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement and the FSIC II Advisor investment
advisory and administrative services agreement, as applicable, during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:



|Year Ended December 31,            |

|(1) | FSIC II Advisor agreed, effective March 5, 2015, to permanently
    waive a portion of the base management fee to which it was entitled under the FSIC II Advisor investment advisory and administrative
    services agreement so that the fee received equaled 1.75% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets. As a result,
    the amounts shown for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 are net of waivers of $3,432 and $12,853,
    respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, $80,901 and $88,989, respectively, in base management
    fees were paid to FSIC II Advisor and the Advisor. As of December 31, 2018, $17,256 in base management fees were payable
    to the Advisor.

|(2) | During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, $38,123
    and $58,845, respectively, of subordinated incentive fees on income were paid to FSIC II Advisor and the Advisor. As of December 31,

|(3) | During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, $2,783
    and $3,184, respectively, of the accrued administrative services expenses related to the allocation of costs of administrative
    personnel for services rendered to the Company by FSIC II Advisor and the Advisor and the remainder related to other reimbursable
    expenses. The Company paid $3,516 and $3,553 in administrative services expenses to FSIC II Advisor and the Advisor during
    the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.                                                                                                                                                                                                   



Potential Conflicts of Interest



The members of the senior management and investment teams of
the Advisor serve or may serve as officers, directors or principals of entities that operate in the same or a related line of business
as the Company does, or of investment vehicles managed by the same personnel. For example, the Advisor is the investment adviser
to the other funds in the Fund Complex, and the officers, managers and other personnel of the Advisor may serve in similar or other
capacities for the investment advisers to future investment vehicles affiliated with FS Investments or KKR Credit. 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 the Company’s best interests or in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders. The Company’s
investment objectives may overlap with the investment objectives of such investment funds, accounts or other investment vehicles.



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 “FS Order”),
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 Energy and Power Fund, FSK,
FSIC III, FSIC IV and any future BDCs that are advised by FSIC II Advisor or its affiliated investment advisers. However, in connection
with the investment advisory relationship with the Advisor, and in an effort to mitigate potential future conflicts of interest,
the Company’s board of directors authorized and directed that the Company (i) withdraw from the FS Order, except with
respect to any transaction in which the Company participated in reliance on the FS Order prior to April 9, 2018, and (ii)
rely on an exemptive relief order, dated April 3, 2018, that permits the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions,
to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions, including investments originated and directly negotiated
by the Advisor or KKR Credit, with certain affiliates of the Advisor.

Director Independence



A majority of the members of the Board are not “interested
persons,” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, of the Company or the Advisor, and are “independent”
as defined by Rule 303A.00 in the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act defines an “interested
person” to include, among other things, any person who has, or within the last two years had, a material business or professional
relationship with the Company.



The Board is currently comprised of ten directors, eight of
whom are Independent Directors. The Board has determined that the following directors are Independent Directors: Messrs.
Arnold, Kropp, Ford, Goldstein, Hagan, Harrow, Hopkins and Ms. Adams. Based upon information requested from each director
concerning his background, employment and affiliations, the Board has affirmatively determined that none of the Independent Directors
has, or within the last two years had, a material business or professional relationship with the Company, other than in his capacity
as a member of the Board or any Board committee or as a stockholder.



|Item 14. | Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
|-------- | ---------------------------------------



On March 22, 2019,
the Company notified RSM US LLP that RSM US LLP had been dismissed as the Company’s independent public accounting firm. The
Audit Committee approved the dismissal of RSM US LLP. The reports of RSM US LLP on the audited consolidated financial statements
of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion
and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. During the years ended December 31,
2018 and 2017, and the subsequent interim period through March 22, 2019, there were: (i) no disagreements within the
meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions between the Company and RSM US
LLP on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which,
if not resolved to RSM US LLP’s satisfaction, would have caused RSM US LLP to make reference thereto in their reports; and
(ii) no “reportable events” within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.



On March 26, 2019,
the Company appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP to act as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. The appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP was previously recommended
by the Audit Committee. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the subsequent interim period through March 26,
2019, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Deloitte & Touche LLP regarding: (i) the application
of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered
on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Deloitte &
Touche LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or
financial reporting issue; (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv)
of Regulation S-Kand the related instructions; or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v)
of Regulation S-K. A representative of Deloitte & Touche LLP is expected to be available to answer questions
during the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do.

|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(2) | “All Other Fees” are those fees, if any, billed to

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures



The Company’s Audit Committee reviews, negotiates and
approves in advance the scope of work, any related engagement letter and the fees to be charged by the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm for audit services and permitted non-audit services for the Company and for permitted non-audit
services for the Advisor and any affiliates thereof that provide services to the Company if such non-audit services have a direct
impact on the operations or financial reporting of the Company. Any requests for audit, audit-related, tax and other services that
have not received general pre-approval must be submitted to the Audit Committee for specific pre-approval in accordance with its
pre-approval policy, irrespective of the amount of fees associated with such services, and cannot commence until such approval
has been granted. Normally, pre-approval is considered at regularly scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee. However, the Audit
Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member or members to whom such authority is delegated
must report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee does not delegate
its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by RSM US LLP to management. All of the audit and permitted non-audit services
described above for which RSM US LLP billed the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were pre-approved
by the Audit Committee.
