Copyright© FS Investment Corporation
Thank you for your interest in FS Investment Corporation. We are a business development company (“BDC”) that intends to provide debt financing to small and middle market U.S. companies. Our target companies will have between $10 million and $500 million in annual revenues, and annual operating cash flow of at least $2 million.
A BDC is a category of investment company created by Congress in 1980 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 to facilitate the flow of capital to private companies. As a BDC, we provide individual investors with exposure to the private equity and private debt investment markets, which typically have been dominated by high-net-worth and institutional investors, such as pension funds and endowments. We believe that these investors participate in private equity and private debt investment funds for a number of reasons, including their use as a potential source of risk diversification within a portfolio and for their superior return potential over the long term.
In selecting our investments, we intend to employ a defensive approach focused on long-term credit performance and principal protection to provide our investors with current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation.

RISKS
Scroll down to view all risks in order to proceed.
An investment in FS Investment Corporation is subject to significant risks. A more detailed description of the risk factors is found in the section of the prospectus entitled “Risk Factors.” You should read and understand all of these risk factors before making your decision to invest in shares of our common stock.
Please read the risks below and then click OK to proceed to the FS Investment Corporation Web Site.
| • | We are a new company and have no operating history and are subject to the business risks and uncertainties associated with any new business, including the risk that we will not achieve our investment objectives. |
| • | FB Income Advisor has no prior experience managing a business development company or a regulated investment company, or RIC. Therefore, FB Income Advisor may not be able to successfully operate our business or achieve our investment objectives. |
| • | Because there is no public trading market for shares of our common stock and we are not obligated to effectuate a liquidity event by a specified date, it will be difficult for you to sell your shares. |
| • | The amount of any distributions we may make is uncertain. Our distribution proceeds may exceed our earnings; particularly during the period before we have substantially invested the net proceeds from this offering. Therefore, portions of the distributions that we make may represent a return of capital to you. |
| • | We intend to qualify as a RIC but may fail to do so. Such failure would subject us to federal income tax on all of our income, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial performance. |
| • | As a result of the annual distribution requirement to qualify as a RIC, we will likely need to continually raise cash or make borrowings to fund new investments. At times, these sources of funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. |
| • | We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates which may have a substantial negative impact on our investments. |
| • | A significant portion of our portfolio will be recorded at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors and, as a result, there will be uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments. |
| • | We have not identified specific investments that we will make, and therefore you will not have the opportunity to evaluate our investments prior to purchasing shares of our common stock. |
| • | We intend to invest primarily in senior secured term loans, second lien loans and mezzanine debt and selected equity investments issued by small and middle market companies. For our senior secured and second lien loans, the collateral securing these investments may decrease in value over time. Mezzanine debt investments are typically unsecured, and this may involve an above-average amount of risk, including a loss of principal. |
| • | The potential for FB Income Advisor to earn incentive fees under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement may create an incentive for it to enter into investments that are riskier or more speculative than would otherwise be the case or increase portfolio leverage in order to earn higher base management fees. |
| • | This is a “best efforts” offering and if we are unable to raise substantial funds, then we will be more limited in the number and type of investments we may make. |
| • | FB Income Advisor, its affiliates and GDFM face conflicts of interest as a result of compensation arrangements, time constraints and competition for investments. |
| • | After meeting the minimum offering requirement, the purchase price at which you purchase shares will be determined at each monthly closing date. As a result, your purchase price may be higher than the prior monthly closing price per share. |
| • | We may borrow funds to make investments. As a result, we would be exposed to the risks of borrowing, also known as leverage, which may be considered a speculative investment technique. Leverage increases the volatility of investments by magnifying the potential for gain and loss on amounts invested, therefore increasing the risks associated with investing in our securities. |
| • | Our portfolio investments, especially until we raise significant capital from this offering, may be concentrated in a limited number of portfolio companies, which would magnify the effect of any losses suffered by a few of these investments. |
| • | Current market conditions have adversely affected the capital markets and have reduced the availability of debt and equity capital for the market as a whole and financial firms in particular. These conditions may make it more difficult for us to achieve our investment objectives. |
The shares will be offered to the public through FS2 Capital Partners LLC, which will act as the dealer manager, and through other selected dealers that are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Securities are not FDIC-insured, nor bank guaranteed, and may lose value. Broker/dealers are reminded that communications sent or delivered to any person must be accompanied or preceded by a prospectus in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state. Investors are advised to carefully consider the investment objectives, risks and charges and expenses of FS Investment Corporation before investing. The Offering may be made only by means of a prospectus.

ABOUT US
FS Investment Corporation - The Democratization of Private Equity
FS Investment Corporation is a business development company (“BDC”) that intends to provide debt financing to small and middle market U.S. companies. Our target companies will have between $10 million and $500 million in annual revenues, and annual operating cash flow of at least $2 million. In selecting our investments, we intend to employ a defensive approach focused on long-term credit performance and principal protection to provide our investors with current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation.
A BDC is a category of investment company created by Congress in 1980 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 to facilitate the flow of capital to private companies. As a BDC, we provide individual investors with exposure to the private equity and private debt investment markets, which typically have been dominated by high-net-worth and institutional investors, such as pension funds and endowments. We believe that these investors participate in private equity and private debt investment funds for a number of reasons, including their use as a potential source of risk diversification within a portfolio and for their superior return potential over the long term. For more about alternative investments in your portfolio, Click Here.
While a BDC may list its shares for trading in the public markets, we have 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–and to pursue our investment objectives without subjecting our investors to the daily share price volatility associated with the public markets. To provide our shareholders with liquidity, we intend to conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to our share repurchase program beginning twelve months after we meet the minimum offering requirement, as described in our prospectus.

ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTS IN YOUR PORTFOLIO
FS Investment Corporation – Access to private equity and private debt investments for individual investors
Alternative investments, such as private equity and private debt, have become commonplace among institutional investors. We believe that these sophisticated investors participate in private equity and private debt investments for a number of reasons, including their use as a potential source of risk diversification within a portfolio and for their superior return potential over the long-term. For example, the Yale University Investments Office, which manages over $22 billion of assets in the Yale Endowment, notes that its increased exposure to alternative, or nontraditional asset classes is a cornerstone of its investment philosophy.
The heavy allocation to nontraditional asset classes stems from their return potential and diversifying power… Alternative assets, by their very nature, tend to be less efficiently priced than traditional marketable securities, providing an opportunity to exploit market inefficiencies through active management.
– Yale Endowment Update – 2007
While alternative investment strategies, such as private equity and private debt, typically have been dominated by high-net-worth and institutional investors, we aim to provide individual investors access to the potential benefits of alternative investments through our BDC structure.

Franklin Square Capital Partners is a nationwide distributor of alternative investment products designed for the individual investor. Franklin Square Capital Partners’ goal is to bring the benefits of an institutional class investment portfolio to the individual investor through exposure to innovative alternative investment products run by best-in-class managers.

ABOUT BDCS
BDCs enable investment in the growing private sector.
WHAT IS A BDC?
A BDC is a category of investment company created by Congress in 1980 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 to facilitate the flow of capital to small and middle market companies. BDCs provide individual investors direct access to the private equity and private debt investment markets, which typically have been dominated by high-net-worth and institutional investors.
A BDC, like an operating company, must file periodic SEC reports such as 10K’s and 10Q’s, and comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. However, most BDCs are structured as regulated investment companies (“RICs”) to provide tax-advantaged, pass-through treatment of ordinary income and long-term capital gains from investments directly to stockholders with no corporate tax if at least 90% of taxable income is distributed in a timely manner.
WHERE DOSE A BDC FIT IN MY PORTFOLIO?
Alternative Investments, such as private equity and private debt, have become commonplace among institutional investors. We believe that these sophisticated investors participate in private equity and private debt investments for a number of reasons, including their use as a potential source of risk diversification within a portfolio and for their superior return potential over the long-term. Indeed, the Yale University Investment Office, which manages over $22 billion of assets in the Yale Endowment notes that its increased exposure to alternative, or nontraditional, asset classes is a cornerstone of its investment philosophy.
The heavy allocation to nontraditional asset classes stems from their return potential and diversifying power… Alternative assets, by their very nature, tend to be less efficiently priced than traditional marketable securities, providing an opportunity to exploit market inefficiencies through active management.
– Yale Endowment Update – 2007
We believe that exposure to FS Investment Corporation provides an individual investor access to these benefits, including increased diversification and potentially higher portfolio returns.
WHAT ARE SOME ADDITIONAL ADVANTAGES OF A BDC?
A BDC provides the following benefits to individual investors:
| • | Access to investments that have historically been dominated by high-net-worth and institutional investors, such as pension funds and endowments. |
| • | Professionally managed investments. |
| • | Potential to reduce risk by diversifying an individual’s investment over a portfolio of assets. |
| • | Regulated investment vehicle with transparent disclosure and periodic reporting. |

A copy of the prospectus must be made available to you in connection with this offering.
STRATEGY
Smart investments follow disciplined practices.
We aim to achieve our investment objectives by adhering to detailed screening criteria, engaging in thorough due diligence, structuring transactions to manage risk of loss effectively while preserving the opportunity for gain, and committing significant resources to monitoring portfolio companies.
We will target companies with the following attributes, which we believe will help us generate attractive total returns with an acceptable level of risk. However, a prospective portfolio company need not meet all the criteria below in order for us to invest.
| • | Companies we believe have leading, defensible market positions that present attractive growth opportunities. |
| • | Companies with annual revenues of $10 million to $500 million and annual operating cash flow of at least $2 million. |
| • | Companies with proven management teams who have a meaningful equity ownership. |
| • | Companies backed by high quality private equity sponsors. |
| • | Companies engaged in a variety of industries to reduce the risk of a downturn in any one industry having a disproportionate impact on the value of our portfolio. |
| • | Companies whose business models and growth prospects provide a viable route to exit. |

OBJECTIVES
Senior debt instruments in a company’s capital structure may provide a reliable source of steady yield.
Our objectives are to provide current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation.* In selecting our investments, we intend to employ a defensive approach focused on long-term credit performance and principal protection. We anticipate that our portfolio will comprise primarily investments in senior secured loans, second lien loans and long-term subordinated loans (mezzanine loans) of U.S. small and middle market companies. We will seek to invest in companies with annual revenue between $10 million and $500 million and annual operating cash flow of at least $2 million at the time of investment. We do not intend to invest in start-up companies, turnaround situations or companies with speculative business plans.
Our primary area of focus will be senior secured loans, second lien loans, and mezzanine loans of U.S. small and middle market companies. These investments are part of a typical company’s capital structure whereby senior debt is situated at the top of the capital structure, and has the first claim on the assets and cash flows of the company. It is followed in priority by second lien debt, mezzanine debt, preferred equity, and finally, common equity.
Due to this priority of cash flows and claims on assets, an investment’s risk increases as it moves further down the capital structure. Investors are usually compensated for the risk associated with this sliding scale of cash flows, or junior status, in the form of higher returns, either through higher interest payments or potentially higher capital appreciation. As depicted in the chart above, we intend to focus on components of the capital structure with higher priority of cash flows, and therefore less risk.
In addition, we will rely on our investment adviser’s and sub-adviser’s experience to structure investments, possibly using all levels of the capital structure, which we believe will perform well in a broad range of economic environments.
| * | There are no assurances that these objectives will be met. |

OPPORTUNITY
Small and middle market debt securities: Attractive market segment.
LARGE TARGET MARKET
According to Dun & Bradstreet, as of February 2008, there were approximately 149,000 small and middle market companies in the United States, defined as companies with annual revenues between $10 million and $500 million. These companies represent a significant portion of the growth segment of the U.S. economy, and often require substantial capital to grow their businesses. The U.S. Census Bureau, in its most recent economic census in 2002, found that firms in our target market collectively generated $5.9 trillion in revenues and employed 31.7 million people.
GENERAL REDUCTION IN SUPPLY OF CREDIT
Prior to the third quarter of 2007, we believe that banks and hedge funds were aggressively expanding their lending to companies on very favorable terms. Often, this debt carried few covenants, low interest rates and allowed for very high ratios of debt to cash flow. We believe that such aggressive lending was fostered by an active secondary market for these leveraged loans and related structured finance products, which allowed lenders to profit while removing debt from their balance sheets.
We believe that banks and institutional investors are now taking a much more conservative approach to lending in all asset classes due, in part, to problems that began in residential mortgage backed securities backed by borrowers with poor credit histories and have spread throughout the market. Notably, we believe lenders are re-examining the concept of risk and are now demanding improved pricing and more stringent covenant structures in order to lend.
LIMITED INVESTMENT COMPETITION
Despite the size of the market, the consolidation in the financial services industry has substantially reduced the number of financial institutions that lend to small and middle market companies. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation reports that the number of federally insured financial institutions declined from approximately 15,200 in 1990 to approximately 8,600 in 2007.
ATTRACTIVE MARKET SEGMENT
Because of the current investing environment, and also generally as a result of the underserved nature of the market, we believe that small and middle market firms are more likely to offer attractive economics in terms of transaction pricing, up-front and ongoing fees, prepayment penalties and more attractive security features in the form of stricter covenants and quality of collateral. As such, we believe that the market for lending to small and middle market companies presents an attractive environment in which to pursue our investment objectives of generating current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation.

FRANKLIN SQUARE FAMILY OF COMPANIES CONSUMER INFORMATION PRIVACY POLICY
Introduction
The Franklin Square Capital Partners family of companies (“we” or “Franklin Square”) takes measures to ensure that the use and disclosure of your private personal information is consistent with applicable law.
Our Consumer Information Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) explains what nonpublic personal information we collect, why we collect it, how we protect your nonpublic personal information, and how and why, in certain cases, we share such information among Franklin Square companies or with other parties. Our Privacy Policy is effective September 19, 2008, and may be amended from time to time.
Our Privacy Policy applies to nonpublic personal information collected or used when we offer investment products or services to individuals for personal, family, or household purposes. This disclosure is made on behalf of the Franklin Square companies listed in the “Application of Privacy Policy to the Franklin Square Companies” section below.
Our Privacy Policy applies only to individual Franklin Square investors (both current and former investors) who have a direct relationship with one of the Franklin Square companies. If you own Franklin Square investment products or receive Franklin Square services in the name of a third-party broker dealer, investment adviser, or other financial service provider, that third party’s privacy policies may apply to you.
Information That We Collect and May Disclose
We collect information from and about you in order to provide the superior level of service that you expect. Nonpublic personal information about you may include: your name, mailing address, e-mail address, tax identification number, age, account information, investment amounts in our companies, marital status, number of dependents, assets, debts, income, net worth, employment history, financial statements, beneficiary information, personal bank account information, credit history information, broker dealer, financial advisor, IRA custodian, account joint owners and other similar parties, the Franklin Square investment products and services you purchase, your Franklin Square account balance or transactional history, the fact that you are or have been an investor in a Franklin Square sponsored investment and particulars related to any such investment.
Specific examples of personal information that we may collect and may disclose to affiliates and certain third parties include:
| • | Information we receive from you on applications, subscription agreements, or other forms. Examples include your name, mailing address, and e-mail address. |
| • | Information about your transactions with us, our affiliates, and others such as account balances, payment history, account activity and financial statements. |
| • | If you visit our Internet web sites, www.franklinsquare.com www.fs2cap.com or www.fsinvestmentcorp.com (hereafter referred to as “website” or “websites”), information you submit to us on our website forms and information we collect through “cookies”. |
| • | If you create a login and password on one of the websites to access your account with us, we will collect and use the login and password to verify your identity and for our internal use in maintaining your website account. |
| • | Information obtained from others, such as credit reports from consumer credit reporting agencies. |
How We Use and Disclose Information
The Franklin Square network of affiliated companies and third-party service providers work together to provide a variety of investment products and services, and they may need to share some or all nonpublic personal information collected on you to maintain an efficient and effective network of products and services. We believe that by sharing information about you and your accounts among our companies and partners, we are better able to serve your investment needs and to suggest services or educational materials that may be of interest to you. The responsible use and disclosure of the nonpublic personal information we collect is crucial to our ability to provide our clients with the type of goods and services they expect, and may occur under a variety of different circumstances. For example, we may:
| • | Use your personally identifiable information internally for the purposes of furthering our business, which may include analyzing your information, matching your information with the information of others, processing services, maintaining accounts, resolving disputes, preventing fraud and verifying your identity. |
| • | Disclose your personally identifiable information when required by law, such as requests for personal information in connection with a judicial, administrative or investigative matter. |
| • | Use and disclose your personally identifiable information on an aggregate basis. This means that we combine parts of your information with parts of the information from our other users without including your name, complete telephone number, complete e-mail address or your street address, in the combination. Examples of how we use aggregate information include determining the most common zip code among the users of the websites and disclosing that zip code to other parties, or determining and disclosing demographic information such as the average income of investors in our funds. |
Sharing Among Franklin Square Affiliates and Nonaffiliated Service Providers
We may share your personally identifiable information among Franklin Square affiliates engaged in investment or other related financial service activities. Examples might include customer-initiated service requests, establishing and managing your investor accounts, completing your investor transactions, and sharing information with parties acting at your request and on your behalf, such as your broker-dealer, financial advisor, joint owners and IRA custodian.
Sharing With Nonaffiliated Service Providers
We may disclose your personal information to nonaffiliated service providers who perform business functions on our behalf, which may include marketing of our own investment products and services, check printing, and data processing. Nonaffiliated third party service providers often aid us in the efficient and effective delivery of services and there may be circumstances where it is necessary to disclose nonpublic personal information we collect to such parties. However, before we disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated party, we require them to agree to keep our investor information confidential and secure and to use it only as authorized by us. Also, we will only share your nonpublic information with nonaffiliated third parties under circumstances not covered by state or federal law “opt-out” notice exceptions, such as servicing a financial product or service authorized by the customer, resolving consumer disputes, and protecting against potential fraud or unauthorized transactions. Should this policy ever change in the future, you will be given adequate notice and the option to “opt-out” of such disclosure.
We may also disclose the following information to companies that perform marketing services on our behalf or to other financial institutions with whom we have joint marketing agreements:
| • | Information we receive from you on applications or other forms, such as your name, address, social security number, assets and income. |
| • | Information about your transactions with us, our affiliates, or others, such as your payment history, and parties to the transactions. |
| • | Information we receive from a consumer reporting agency, such as your creditworthiness and credit history. |
We require all joint marketers to have written contracts with us that specify appropriate use of your personal information, require them to take steps to safeguard your personal information, and prohibit them from making unauthorized or unlawful use of your personal information. Franklin Square does not share, sell, or rent your personal private information with outside marketers who may want to offer you their own products and services to you.
How We Protect Your Information
Franklin Square maintains a comprehensive information security program designed to ensure the security and confidentiality of customer information, protect against threats or hazards to the security of such information, and prevent unauthorized access. This program includes:
| • | Procedures and specifications for administrative, technical and physical safeguards. |
| • | Security procedures related to the processing, storage, retention and disposal of confidential information. |
| • | Programs to detect, prevent and when necessary respond to attacks, intrusions or unauthorized access to confidential information. |
| • | Restricting access to customer information to employees who need to know that information to provide products and services to you, and appointing specific employees to oversee our information security program. |
Availability of Our Privacy Policy
We will provide notice of our Privacy Policy annually, as long as you maintain an ongoing relationship with us. The most up-to-date Privacy Policy is posted on our websites or you may call our Privacy Policy Specialist at 1.866.450.9100.
Notification of Changes to Our Privacy Policy
If we decide to change our Privacy Policy, we will post those changes on the website so our users and investors are always aware of what information we collect, use and disclose. If at any point we decide to use or disclose your personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify you in writing. We will otherwise use and disclose a user’s or an investor’s personally identifiable information in accordance with the Privacy Policy that was in effect when such information was collected.
Change in Control
If any of the Franklin Square companies experiences a “change in control” (defined below), then we may amend our information practices as described in this Privacy Policy. We will disclose your personally identifiable information to the company or other legal entity that succeeds the company subject to the change in control or the operation of the website. The privacy policy of the succeeding legal entity will then govern the personally identifiable information that the applicable Franklin Square Company had collected from you under this Privacy Policy. However, if applicable law prohibits the succeeding legal entity’s privacy policy from governing your personally identifiable information, then this Privacy Policy shall continue to govern. “Change in control” means any of the following events:
| • | A reorganization, merger, consolidation, acquisition or other restructuring involving all or substantially all of a Franklin Square company’s voting securities and/or assets, by operation of law or otherwise. |
| • | Insolvency. |
| • | A general assignment for the benefit of creditors. |
