LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (continued)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Letter of Transmittal is provided in connection with the Company’s offer dated February 24, 2020 to purchase up to the lesser of (i) 10,929,194 of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”) (which number represents 2.5% of the weighted average number of Shares outstanding for the calendar year ended December 31, 2019), and (ii) the greater of (x) the number of Shares that the Company can repurchase with the aggregate proceeds it has received from the sale of Shares under its distribution reinvestment plan during the twelve-month period ending on the Expiration Date (as defined below) (less the amount of any such proceeds used to repurchase Shares on each previous repurchase date for tender offers conducted during such period) and (y) the number of Shares that the Company can repurchase with the proceeds it receives from the sale of Shares under its distribution reinvestment plan during the three-month period ending on the Expiration Date (the “Offer to Purchase”). The person(s) submitting this Letter of Transmittal (the “Signatory”) hereby tender(s) to the Company, which is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is formed as a Delaware statutory trust, the number of Shares specified below in Section B “Number of Shares Being Tendered” for purchase by the Company at a price equal to the price at which Shares are issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan on March 31, 2020 (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price (and the price at which Shares will be issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan) will be determined by the Company’s board of trustees (the “Board”) or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion, and will be (i) not less than the net asset value per Share (the “NAV Per Share”) of the Company’s Shares (as determined in good faith by the Board or a committee thereof, in its sole discretion) immediately prior to March 31, 2020 and (ii) not more than 2.5% greater than the NAV Per Share as of such date. The offer is made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and in this Letter of Transmittal (which Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal, together with any amendments or supplements hereto and thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer”). The most recent price at which Shares were issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan on January 31, 2020 was $5.50 per Share. The Purchase Price for Shares in this Offer may be higher or lower than this amount. The Offer will expire at 4:00 P.M., Eastern Time, on March 31, 2020 (the “Expiration Date”), unless extended.

Subject to, and effective upon, acceptance for payment of, or payment for, Shares tendered herewith in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, the Signatory hereby sells, assigns and transfers to, or upon the order of, the Company, all right, title and interest in and to all of the Shares that are being tendered hereby that are purchased pursuant to the Offer, and hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints DST Systems, Inc. as attorney-in-fact of the Signatory with respect to such Shares, with full power of substitution (such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an interest), to receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of such Shares, all in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer.

The name(s) of the registered holder(s) on this Letter of Transmittal must correspond exactly with the name(s) on the subscription agreement accepted by the Company in connection with the purchase of the Shares, unless such Shares have been transferred by the registered holder(s), in which event the name(s) of the holder(s) on this Letter of Transmittal must correspond exactly with the name of the last transferee indicated on the share ledger maintained in book-entry form by DST Systems, Inc., the Company’s transfer agent.

The Signatory recognizes that, under certain circumstances as set forth in the Offer to Purchase, the Company may amend, extend or terminate the Offer or may not be required to purchase any of the Shares tendered hereby. In any such event, the Signatory understands that the Shares not purchased, if any, will continue to be held by the Signatory and will not be tendered.

The Signatory understands that acceptance of Shares by the Company for payment will constitute a binding agreement between the Signatory and the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (continued)

The Signatory understands that the payment of the Purchase Price for the Shares accepted for purchase by the Company will be made as promptly as practicable by the Company following the conclusion of the Offer and that in no event will the Signatory receive any interest on the Purchase Price. Payment of the Purchase Price for the Shares tendered by the Signatory will be made on behalf of the Company by check or wire transfer to the account identified by the Signatory below.

If the Signatory participates in the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRP”), the Signatory will continue to participate in the DRP unless the Company is otherwise notified by the Signatory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Signatory tenders all of their Shares in the Offer (whether or not the Company accepts all such Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer), the Signatory’s participation in the DRP will automatically cease with respect to distributions scheduled to be paid after the Expiration Date. If the Signatory holds Shares in a brokerage account maintained at Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc., AXA Advisors or LPL Financial, all such distributions scheduled to be paid after the Expiration Date will be remitted to Ameriprise, AXA Advisors or LPL Financial, respectively, to be credited to the Signatory’s brokerage account. If the Signatory does not hold Shares in a brokerage account maintained at Ameriprise, AXA Advisors or LPL Financial, all such distributions scheduled to be paid after the Expiration Date will be paid in cash by check mailed to the registered holder at the address on file with the Company.

All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred shall survive the death or incapacity of the Signatory and all obligations of the Signatory hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Signatory. Except as stated in the Offer to Purchase, this tender is irrevocable.

The Signatory hereby acknowledges that capitalized terms not defined in this Letter of Transmittal shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Purchase.

INSTRUCTIONS TO LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (continued)

4. Withholding. The Company is entitled to deduct and withhold from the Purchase Price otherwise payable to any holder of Shares whose Shares are accepted for purchase by the Company any amounts that the Company is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are withheld, the withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes as having been paid and issued to the holder of Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

5. Transfer Taxes. The Company will pay any transfer taxes payable on the transfer to it of Shares purchased pursuant to the Offer; provided, however, that if payment of the Purchase Price is to be made to any person(s) other than the registered holder(s), the amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder(s) or such other person(s)) payable on account of the transfer to such person(s) will be deducted from the Purchase Price unless satisfactory evidence of the payment of such taxes, or exemption therefrom, is submitted herewith.

6. Determinations of Validity. All questions as to the form of documents and the validity of Shares will be resolved by the Company in its sole discretion, whose determination shall be final and binding, subject to the rights of tendering holders to challenge the Company’s determination in a court of competent jurisdiction. The Company reserves the absolute right to reject any deliveries of any Shares that are not in proper form, or the acceptance of which would, in the opinion of the Company or its counsel, be unlawful. The Company reserves the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity of delivery for exchange with regard to any Shares, provided that any such waiver shall apply to all tenders of Shares.

NONE OF THE COMPANY, ITS BOARD OF TRUSTEES, FS/EIG ADVISOR, LLC OR ANY OTHER PERSON IS OR WILL BE OBLIGATED TO GIVE ANY NOTICE OF ANY DEFECT OR IRREGULARITY IN ANY TENDER, AND NONE OF THEM WILL INCUR ANY LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO GIVE ANY SUCH NOTICE.

7. Requests for Assistance or Additional Copies. Requests for assistance or for additional copies of this Letter of Transmittal may be directed to the Company at the address set forth on the cover page of this Letter of Transmittal. Shareholders who do not own Shares directly may also obtain such information and copies from their broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee. Shareholders who do not own Shares directly are required to tender their Shares through their broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and should NOT submit this Letter of Transmittal to the Company.

8. Backup Withholding. To prevent the imposition of U.S. federal backup withholding tax on the gross payments made pursuant to the Offer, prior to receiving such payments, each shareholder accepting the Offer who has not previously submitted to the Company a correct, completed and signed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 (“Form W-9”) (for U.S. Shareholders) or IRS Form W-8BEN (“Form W-8BEN”), IRS Form W-8BEN-E (“Form W-8BEN-E”), IRS Form W-8IMY (“Form W-8IMY”), IRS Form W-8ECI (“Form W-8ECI”), IRS Form W-8EXP (“Form W-8EXP”) or other applicable form (for Non-U.S. Shareholders), or otherwise established an exemption from such withholding, must submit the appropriate form to the Company.

INSTRUCTIONS TO LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (continued)

If backup withholding applies, the Company is required to withhold a portion of any payment made to the shareholder with respect to Shares purchased pursuant to the Offer. The applicable rate for backup withholding is currently 24%. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained by the holder from the IRS.

Certain holders (including, among others, most corporations and certain foreign persons) are exempt from backup withholding requirements. To qualify as an exempt recipient on the basis of foreign status, a holder must generally submit a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8IMY or IRS Form W-8ECI, signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to that person’s exempt status. A holder would use an IRS Form W-8BEN to certify that it is neither a citizen nor a resident of the United States and would use an IRS Form W-8ECI to certify that (1) it is neither a citizen nor resident of the United States, and (2) the proceeds of the sale of the Shares are effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business. A non-U.S. holder may also use an IRS Form W-8BEN to certify that it is eligible for benefits under a tax treaty between the United States and such foreign person’s country of residence.

HOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISOR(S) AS TO THEIR QUALIFICATION FOR EXEMPTION FROM THE BACKUP WITHHOLDING REQUIREMENTS AND THE PROCEDURE FOR OBTAINING AN EXEMPTION.

9. Cost Basis. The Company has elected the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method as the default for calculating cost basis for Shares as defined in the Company’s offering documents. If you wish to change your cost basis method, please go to www.fsinvestments.com, click through “investor login” and login into your account and select “Cost Basis Options”. Alternatively, please contact the Company at (877) 628-8575.
