Third Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust

On August 13, 2019, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Blackstone / GSO Secured Lending Fund (the “Company”) adopted the Third Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the “Third Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust”). The Third Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust (i) modifies the definition of “Initial Closing Period” to provide that the Company’s investment adviser, GSO Asset Management LLC (the “Adviser”), with the approval of the Board, may extend the twelve month period of the Initial Closing Period up to two times for additional periods of up to one year per extension, (ii) sets the time at which the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to wind down if it has not consummated an Exchange Listing (as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust) to be the earlier of (a) the five year anniversary of the end of the Initial Drawdown Period (as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust), as may be extended for up to one additional one-year period pursuant to the Adviser’s recommendation and approval of the Board and (b) the ten year anniversary of the date of initial closing (previously such wind down time was determined only by part (a)), and (iii) makes other immaterial changes.

The foregoing description is only a summary of the material provisions of the Third Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and is qualified in its entirety by reference to a copy of the Third Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
