Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

FS Investment Corporation (the “Company”) held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) on June 22, 2016. As of April 20, 2016, the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting, 243,488,590 shares of common stock were eligible to be voted in person or by proxy. Of the eligible shares of common stock to be voted, 111,081,884 were voted in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders were asked to consider and act upon the following proposals, each of which was described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 29, 2016 (the “Proxy Statement”):

 

·        Proposal No. 1 – the election of four Class C members of the board of directors of the Company to serve for a term of three years and until their successors are duly elected and qualified (the “Director Proposal”); and

 

·        Proposal No. 2 – to authorize flexibility for the Company, with the approval of the Company’s board of directors, to offer and sell shares of the Company’s common stock during the 12 months following stockholder approval, at a price below the then-current net asset value per share, subject to certain limitations described in the Proxy Statement (the “Share Issuance Proposal”).

 

All director nominees listed in the Director Proposal were elected by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting.  The votes for, votes withheld and broker non-votes for each director nominee are set forth below:

 

Director Nominee	Votes For	Votes Withheld	Broker Non-Votes
Gregory P. Chandler	105,813,357	5,268,527	0

Barry H. Frank	107,219,021	3,862,863	0
Michael J. Heller	95,633,575	15,488,309	0

 

On June 22, 2016, the Company adjourned the Annual Meeting with respect to the Share Issuance Proposal to permit additional time to solicit stockholder votes for such proposal. The reconvened meeting (the “Reconvened Meeting”) will be held on July 13, 2016 at 1:00 p.m., Eastern Time, at 201 Rouse Boulevard, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19112. Valid proxies submitted prior to the Annual Meeting will continue to be valid for the Reconvened Meeting, unless properly changed or revoked prior to votes being taken at the Reconvened Meeting.
