PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT SUMMARY

***

FS KKR Capital Corp.

***

On November 23, 2020, we entered into a merger agreement with FSKR pursuant to which FSKR will merge with and into FSK in a merger transaction. See “Prospectus Supplement Summary—Recent Developments.” FSKR is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. FSKR has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes and as a RIC under the Code. As of March 31, 2021, FSKR had total assets of approximately $8.0 billion. FSKR is managed by the Advisor and also has an investment objective of generating current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. It is expected that the merger of FSK and FSKR would create one of the largest BDCs in the U.S., with $14.9 billion in assets under management, $7.5 billion in net asset value and over $3.4 billion of committed capital available to new investment opportunities, each on a pro forma basis as of March 31, 2021. The merger is expected to close on or around June 16, 2021.

Following the Merger, stockholders of FSK and FSKR will be paid their regular distribution, as well as any remaining undistributed net investment income and capital gains in the case of FSKR, on or around July 2, 2021. For shareholders of FSKR, this will be an all-cash distribution that is not eligible for reinvestment as FSKR’s distribution reinvestment plan has been suspended in preparation for the closing of the Merger.

Recent Developments

On November 23, 2020, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with FSKR (and together with us, the “Funds”), Rocky Merger Sub, Inc., a Maryland corporation and our wholly- owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”), and the Advisor.

The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into FSKR, with FSKR continuing as the surviving company and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of FSK (the “First Merger”), and, immediately thereafter, FSKR will merge with and into FSK, with FSK continuing as the surviving company (together with the First Merger, the “Merger”). Our board of directors and the board of directors of FSKR have each approved the Merger, with the participation throughout by, and the unanimous support of, our and FSKR’s respective independent directors. On May 21, 2021, the stockholders of each Fund approved the required matters in connection with the Merger. The parties to the Merger Agreement intend the Merger to be treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

In the Merger, each share of FSKR common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the First Merger will be converted into a number of shares of FSK common stock equal to an exchange ratio to be determined in connection with the closing of the Merger (the “Exchange Ratio”). The Exchange Ratio will equal the net asset value per share of FSKR common stock (determined no earlier than 48 hours (excluding Sundays and holidays) prior to the closing date of the Merger), divided by the net asset value per share of FSK common stock (determined, in each case, no earlier than 48 hours (excluding Sundays and holidays) prior to the closing date of the Merger). Holders of FSKR common stock may receive fractional shares or cash in lieu of fractional shares, at the election of FSK.

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to the operation of each of the Funds and the Advisor’s businesses during the period prior to the closing of the Merger. On May 21, 2021, each of the Funds obtained the required approvals of its respective stockholders in connection with their respective proposals.

Consummation of the Merger, which is currently anticipated to occur during the second quarter of 2021, is subject to certain closing conditions, including (1) the absence of certain legal impediments to the consummation of the Merger and (2) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties and compliance with the covenants of each party to the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement also contains certain termination rights in favor of each Fund including if the Merger is not completed on or before November 23, 2021. The Merger Agreement also provides that, upon the termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, a third party may be required to pay FSKR a termination fee of $90.8 million, or a third party may be required to pay FSK a termination fee of $126.2 million.

The representations and warranties and covenants set forth in the Merger Agreement have been made only for purposes of such agreement and were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including qualification by confidential disclosures made for purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, the Merger Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Merger Agreement, and not to provide investors with any factual information regarding the parties to the Merger Agreement or their respective businesses. No assurance can be given that the Merger will be completed. This offering of Notes is not conditioned on the Merger and the Merger is not conditioned on this offering of Notes.

SPECIFIC TERMS OF THE NOTES AND THE OFFERING

***

Ranking of Notes

The Notes will be our general unsecured obligations that rank senior in right of payment to all of our existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes. The Notes will rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior liabilities that are not so subordinated, effectively junior to any of our secured indebtedness (including unsecured indebtedness that we later secure) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by our subsidiaries, financing vehicles or similar facilities.

As of March 31, 2021, our total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $3.6 billion, approximately $818 million of which was secured indebtedness, all of which was senior indebtedness, and approximately $402 million of which was indebtedness of our subsidiaries. In connection with the closing of the Merger, the outstanding indebtedness of FSKR will become our indebtedness. As of March 31, 2021, FSKR’s total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $3.5 billion, approximately $3.0 billion of which was secured indebtedness, all of which was senior indebtedness, and approximately $1.6 billion of which was indebtedness of FSKR’s subsidiaries.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the statements in this prospectus supplement, including the documents we incorporate by reference herein, and the accompanying prospectus and any free writing prospectus, including the documents we incorporate by reference therein, constitute forward-looking statements because they relate to future events or our future performance or financial condition. The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, or any free writing prospectus may include statements as to:

***

•

the ability of the parties to consummate the Merger on the expected timeline, or at all;

•

the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed Merger;

•

the effects of disruption on our and FSKR’s business from the proposed Merger;

•

the combined company’s plans, expectations, objectives and intentions, as a result of the Merger; and

•

any potential termination of the Merger Agreement or action of our or FSKR’s stockholders with respect to any proposed transaction.

***

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves a number of significant risks, including risks related to the Notes and risks related to the Merger. In addition to the other information contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, and any free writing prospectus, you should consider carefully the following information and the risk factors incorporated by reference in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K we file after the date of this prospectus supplement, and all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, and any free writing prospectus, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act, before making an investment in our securities. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or not presently deemed material by us may also impair our operations and performance. Each of the risk factors could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In such case, our net asset value and the value of our debt securities may decline, and investors may lose all or part of their investment.

Risks Related to the Notes

The Notes are unsecured and therefore are effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness we may incur.

The Notes are not secured by any of our assets or any of the assets of our subsidiaries. As a result, the Notes are effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness we or our subsidiaries have outstanding as of the date of this prospectus supplement or that our subsidiaries may incur in the future (or any indebtedness that is initially unsecured in respect of which we subsequently grant security) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. In any liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy or other similar proceeding, the holders of any of our existing or future secured indebtedness and the secured indebtedness of our subsidiaries may assert rights against the assets pledged to secure that indebtedness in order to receive full payment of their indebtedness before the assets may be used to pay other creditors, including the holders of the Notes. As of March 31, 2021, our total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $3.6 billion, approximately $818 million of which was secured. In connection with the closing of the Merger, the outstanding indebtedness of FSKR will become our indebtedness. As of March 31, 2021, FSKR’s total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $3.5 billion, approximately $3.0 billion of which was secured.

The Notes are subordinated structurally to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.

The Notes are obligations exclusively of FS KKR Capital Corp. and not of any of our subsidiaries. None of our subsidiaries is a guarantor of the Notes and the Notes are not required to be guaranteed by any subsidiaries we may acquire or create in the future. As of March 31, 2021, approximately $402 million of the indebtedness required to be consolidated on our balance sheet was held through subsidiary financing vehicles and secured by certain assets of such subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2021, approximately $1.6 billion of the indebtedness required to be consolidated on FSKR’s balance sheet was held through subsidiary financing vehicles and secured by certain assets of such subsidiaries. If the Merger closes, such indebtedness will become our indebtedness. Except to the extent we are a creditor with recognized claims against our subsidiaries, all claims of creditors, including trade creditors, and holders of preferred stock, if any, of our subsidiaries will have priority over our claims (and therefore the claims of our creditors, including holders of the Notes) with respect to the assets of such subsidiaries. Even if we were recognized as a creditor of one or more of our subsidiaries, our claims would still be effectively subordinated to any security interests in the assets of any such subsidiary and to any indebtedness or other liabilities of any such subsidiary senior to our claims. Consequently, the Notes are subordinated structurally to all indebtedness and other liabilities of any of our subsidiaries and any subsidiaries that we may in the future acquire or establish as financing vehicles or otherwise. All of the existing indebtedness of our subsidiaries is structurally senior to the Notes and, if the Merger closes, the existing indebtedness of FSKR’s subsidiaries will become indebtedness of the Company that is structurally senior to the Notes. In addition, our

subsidiaries (or, prior to the Merger, FSKR’s subsidiaries) may incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, all of which would be structurally senior to the Notes (only if the Merger closes with respect to the indebtedness of FSKR’s subsidiaries).

***

Risks Related to the Merger

The Merger may not be completed on the terms contemplated, or at all, and if the Merger does not close, we will not benefit from the expenses incurred in its pursuit.

The Merger may be delayed, may be consummated on terms different than those contemplated in the Merger Agreement or may not be completed at all. If the Merger is not completed, we will have incurred substantial expenses for which no ultimate benefit will have been received. We have incurred out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the Merger for investment banking, legal and accounting fees and financial printing and other related charges, much of which will be incurred even if the Merger is not completed. Any delay in the consummation of the Merger or any uncertainty about the consummation of the Merger could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

We may be unable to realize the benefits anticipated by the Merger, including estimated cost savings, or it may take longer than anticipated to achieve such benefits.

The realization of certain benefits anticipated as a result of the Merger will depend in part on the integration of our investment portfolio with FSKR’s and the integration of our business with FSKR’s. There can be no assurance that FSKR’s investment portfolio or business can be operated profitably or integrated successfully into our operations in a timely fashion or at all. The dedication of management resources to such integration may detract attention from the day-to-day business of the combined company and there can be no assurance that there will not be substantial costs associated with the transition process or there will not be other material adverse effects as a result of these integration efforts. Such effects, including, but not limited to, incurring unexpected costs or delays in connection with such integration and failure of FSKR’s investment portfolio to perform as expected, could have a material adverse effect on the financial results of the combined company.

We also expect to achieve certain cost savings from the Merger when the two companies have fully integrated their portfolios. It is possible that the estimates of the potential cost savings could ultimately be incorrect. The cost savings estimates also assume we will be able to combine our operations with those of FSKR in a manner that permits those cost savings to be fully realized. If the estimates turn out to be incorrect or if we are not able to successfully combine FSKR’s investment portfolio or business with our operations, the anticipated cost savings may not be fully realized or realized at all or may take longer to realize than expected.

The termination of the Merger Agreement could negatively impact us.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated, there may be various consequences, including:

•

our business may have been adversely impacted by the failure to pursue other beneficial opportunities due to the focus of management on the Merger, without realizing any of the anticipated benefits of completing the Merger;

•

the market price of our common stock might decline to the extent that the market price prior to termination reflects a market assumption that the Merger will be completed; and

•

the payment of any termination fee, if required under the circumstances, could adversely affect our financial condition or liquidity.

Under certain circumstances, we are obligated to cause a third party to pay FSKR a termination fee upon termination of the Merger Agreement.

No assurance can be given that the Merger will be completed. The Merger Agreement provides for the payment, subject to applicable law, by a third party, of a termination fee of $90.8 million to FSKR, if the Merger Agreement is terminated by us under certain circumstances, including (1) if the Merger is not completed by November 23, 2021 or we willfully or intentionally breach our representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in the Merger Agreement, or (2) an alternative takeover proposal is disclosed after the date of the Merger Agreement and we enter into an agreement with respect to such takeover proposal within twelve (12) months after the Merger Agreement is terminated and such takeover is subsequently completed, subject to applicable law. Our board of directors has approved the amount of the termination fee which may be paid.

The Merger is subject to closing conditions, that, if not satisfied or (to the extent legally allowed) waived, will result in the Merger not being completed, which may result in material adverse consequences to our business and operations.

The Merger is subject to certain conditions beyond our control that may prevent, delay or otherwise materially adversely affect its completion. We cannot predict whether and when these other conditions will be satisfied.

We will be subject to operational uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the Merger is pending.

Uncertainty about the effect of the Merger may have an adverse effect on us and, consequently, on the combined company following completion of the Merger. These uncertainties may cause those that deal with us to seek to change their existing business relationships with us. In addition, the Merger Agreement restricts us from taking actions that it might otherwise consider to be in its best interests. These restrictions may prevent us from pursuing certain business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the Merger.

Litigation filed against FSK or FSKR in connection with the Merger could result in substantial costs and could delay or prevent the Merger from being completed.

From time to time, FSK and FSKR may be subject to legal actions, including securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits, as well as various regulatory, governmental and law enforcement inquiries, investigations and subpoenas in connection with the Merger. These or any similar securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits, regardless of their merits, may result in substantial costs and divert management time and resources. An adverse judgment in such cases could have a negative impact on FSK and FSKR’s liquidity and financial condition or could prevent the Merger from being completed.

USE OF PROCEEDS

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

***

For purposes of the Notes:

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

(1)

the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation) in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of FS KKR Capital Corp. and its Controlled Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than to any Permitted Holders; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, a pledge of assets pursuant to any secured debt instrument of FS KKR Capital Corp. or its Controlled Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be any such sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or disposition;

(2)

the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than any Permitted Holders) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the outstanding Voting Stock of FS KKR Capital Corp., measured by voting power rather than number of shares; or

(3)

the approval by FS KKR Capital Corp.’s stockholders of any plan or proposal relating to the liquidation or dissolution of FS KKR Capital Corp.

For avoidance of doubt, the Merger shall not constitute a Change of Control.

***

“Merger” means the transactions entered into pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 23, 2020 (and as the same may be amended), among us, FS KKR Capital Corp.
