FS KKR Capital Corp. (the “Company”) held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) on June 14, 2019. As of April 22, 2019, the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting, 523,300,626 shares of common stock were eligible to be voted in person or by proxy. Of the eligible shares of common stock to be voted, 239,444,243 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 23, 2019:
| ● | Proposal No. 1 – to elect the following individuals as Class C Directors, each of whom has been nominated for election for a three year term expiring at the 2022 annual meeting of the stockholders: (a) Barbara Adams, (b) Frederick Arnold, (c) Michael C. Forman and (d) Jerel A. Hopkins (the “Director Proposal”); |
| ● | Proposal No. 2 – to approve the application of the reduced asset coverage requirements in Section 61(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, to the Company, which would permit the Company to increase the maximum amount of leverage that it is permitted to incur by reducing the asset coverage requirement applicable to the Company from 200% to 150% (the “Leverage Proposal”); and |
| ● | Proposal No. 3 – to approve a proposal to allow the Company in future offerings to sell its shares below net asset value per share in order to provide flexibility for future sales (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 |
| Barbara Adams | 229,708,442 | 9,735,801 | 0 |

| Jerel A. Hopkins | 229,103,013 | 10,341,230 | 0 |

| Votes For | Votes Against | Abstentions | Broker Non-Votes |

On June 14, 2019, 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 16, 2019 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. The record date of April 22, 2019 will remain the same for the Reconvened Meeting.
| Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
Commencing on June 15, 2019, the first date after the stockholders approved the Leverage Proposal, the Company will be required to maintain asset coverage for its senior securities of 150% (i.e. $2 of debt for investment purposes outstanding for each $1 of investor equity) rather than 200% (i.e. $1 of debt for investment purposes outstanding for each $1 of investor equity), which would permit the Company to increase the maximum amount of leverage that it is permitted to incur.
