WHEREAS, the Board desires to authorize the Authorized Officers to make the filing and give the notices required by Rule 17g-1 promulgated under the 1940 Act and negotiate, execute and deliver such documents or agreements as may be necessary to cause the renewal of each Companys joint fidelity bond (the Renewed Joint Fidelity Bond), provided, that: (i) the amount of coverage of the Renewed Joint Fidelity Bond shall be computed in accordance with the schedule set forth in Rule 17g-1(d)(l) promulgated under the 1940 Act; (ii) the Renewed Joint Fidelity Bond provides at least as much coverage as each Companys current fidelity bond, with any increase to the current coverage amount as the Authorized Officers deem necessary or appropriate; and (iii) the Renewed Joint Fidelity Bond is otherwise issued on substantially the same terms and conditions as each Companys current fidelity bond.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that, having considered all factors deemed relevant by the Board, including, but not limited to: (i) the expected aggregate value of the securities and other assets of each Company to which officers or employees of each Company may have access (either directly or through authority to draw upon such funds or to direct generally the disposition of such securities); (ii) the type and terms of the arrangements made for the custody of such securities and assets; (iii) the nature of securities and other investments to be held by each Company; (iv) the accounting procedures and controls of each Company; (v) the nature and method of conducting the operations of each Company; and (vi) the requirements of Section 17(g) of the 1940 Act and Rule 17g-1 promulgated thereunder, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, hereby determines that the Renewed Joint Fidelity Bond, in the form as discussed at the meeting, covering, among others, the officers and employees of each Company, and insuring each Company against loss from fraudulent or dishonest acts, including larceny and embezzlement, having an aggregate coverage amount of at least the amount required under the 1940 Act, with any increase to such aggregate coverage amount as the Authorized Officers deem necessary or appropriate, be, and it hereby is, confirmed, ratified and approved; and it is further

RESOLVED, that the Authorized Officers be, and each of them individually hereby is, authorized and directed to cause each Company to pay the annual premium payable with respect to the Renewed Joint Fidelity Bond and to enter into and execute, on behalf of each Company, an agreement reflecting the provisions of the Renewed Joint Fidelity Bond and relating to the sharing of premiums and division of proceeds in the event of a joint fidelity loss, as required by Rule 17g-1(f) under the 1940 Act (the Joint Insured Bond Allocation Agreement); and it is further
RESOLVED, that the terms and conditions of each Joint Insured Bond Allocation Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit L, be, and hereby are, approved and adopted in all respects, with such amendments thereto as any Authorized Officer may approve, and with approval of such further amendments evidenced by their inclusion in each Companys Joint Insured Bond Allocation Agreement; and it is further
RESOLVED, that the Authorized Officers be, and each of them individually hereby is, authorized and directed, in the name of and on behalf of each Company, to execute the Joint Insured Bond Allocation Agreement on behalf of each Company; and it is further

JOINT INSURED BOND ALLOCATION AGREEMENT
THIS JOINT INSURED BOND ALLOCATION AGREEMENT (this Agreement), effective as of the 9th day of April, 2019, by and among FS KKR Capital Corp. (the Fund), a business development company regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), FS/KKR Advisor, LLC, an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), which provides investment management services to the Fund, and each subsidiary of the Fund (collectively, the Insureds).
WHEREAS, pursuant to the requirements of Section 17(g) of the 1940 Act and Rule 17g-1 promulgated thereunder (Rule 17g-1), the Fund is required to maintain a bond issued by a reputable fidelity insurance company, authorized to do business in the place where the bond is issued, against larceny and embezzlement, covering certain officers and employees of the Fund; and
WHEREAS, the Insureds have entered into a joint insured bond with Chubb Group of Insurance Companies, in accordance with Rule 17g-1 (such joint insured bond as it is currently executed and as it may be amended from time to time, hereinafter, the Bond); and
WHEREAS, the Insureds, in order to be covered jointly under the Bond, are required by Rule 17g-1 to be parties to an agreement that establishes the criteria by which the premiums and any recoveries under the Bond shall be allocated among them.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows:
1. | Amount of Coverage Maintained. The amount of fidelity coverage under the Bond shall at all times be at least equal to the sum of: (a) the total amount of coverage that the Fund would have been required to provide and maintain individually pursuant to the schedule set forth in paragraph (d)(1) of Rule 17g-1 had the Fund not been a named insured under the Bond, plus (b) the amount of each bond which each other named insured would have been required to provide and maintain pursuant to federal statutes or regulations had it not been named as an insured under the Bond (such amounts, respectively, the minimum coverage requirement for each Insured). In addition, a priority layer equal to the total amount of coverage that the Fund would have been required to provide and maintain individually pursuant to the schedule set forth in paragraph (d)(1) of Rule 17g-1 had the Fund not been a named insured under the Bond shall be designated for the Fund and its wholly owned subsidiaries only. The amount of fidelity coverage under the Bond shall be approved not less than every twelve months by the Board of Directors of the Fund, including a majority of those directors who are not interested persons of the Fund, as defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (the Independent Directors). |
2. | Allocation of Recovery. In the event an actual pecuniary loss is suffered by any two or more of the Insureds under circumstances covered by the Bond, any recovery under the Bond shall be allocated among such Insureds as follows: |
a. | If the total amount of coverage provided under the Bond exceeds or is equal to the amount of the combined total loss suffered by the Insureds suffering the loss, then each such Insured shall be entitled to recover the amount of its actual loss. |
b. | If the amount of loss suffered by each Insured suffering loss exceeds its minimum coverage requirement as set forth in Section 1 hereof and the amount of such Insureds combined actual losses exceeds the total amount of coverage under the Bond, then each such Insured shall be entitled to recover (i) its minimum coverage requirement, and (ii) to the extent there exists any excess coverage, the proportion of such excess coverage that its minimum coverage requirement bears to the amount of the combined minimum coverage requirements of the Insureds suffering actual loss; provided, however, that if the actual loss of any such Insureds is less than the sum of (i) and (ii) above, then such difference shall be recoverable by the other Insured or Insureds in proportion to their minimum coverage requirements. |
c. | If (i) the amount of actual loss suffered by any Insured is less than or equal to its minimum coverage requirement, (ii) the amount of actual loss of another Insured or other Insureds exceeds its or their minimum coverage requirements, and (iii) the amount of the combined actual losses of the Insureds exceeds the total amount of coverage provided under the Bond, then any Insured that has suffered an amount of actual loss less than or equal to its minimum coverage requirement shall be entitled to recover its actual loss. If only one other Insured has suffered actual loss, it shall be entitled to recover the remainder of the coverage under the Bond. If more than one Insured has suffered actual loss in excess of the remaining coverage, then they shall allocate such remaining amount of coverage in accordance with paragraph (b) of this section 2. |
3. | Allocation of Premiums. No premium shall be paid under the Bond unless the Board of Directors of the Fund, including a majority of the Independent Directors, shall approve the portion of the premium to be paid by the Fund on behalf of each Insured. The premium payable on the Bond shall be allocated between the Insureds as determined in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Fund. |
4. | Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified or amended in any manner except by written agreement executed by the parties hereto. |
