Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

On November 2, 2021, pursuant to a drawdown notice previously delivered to investors, Franklin BSP Capital Corporation (the “Company”) issued and sold approximately 1.904 million shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), for an aggregate offering price of approximately $29.0 million.

 

The sale of Common Stock was made pursuant to subscription agreements (collectively, the “Subscription Agreements”) entered into by the Company with its investors. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, each investor is required to fund drawdowns to purchase shares of Common Stock up to the amount of their respective capital commitments on an as-needed basis upon a minimum of 10 business days’ prior notice.

 

The issuance of the Common Stock is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Regulation D thereunder. The Company relied, in part, upon representations from investors in the relevant Subscription Agreements that each investor is an “accredited investor,” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On October 28, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a distribution for shares of its common stock in the amount of $0.30 per share of common stock. The distribution is payable to stockholders of record as of October 28, 2021 and will be paid on or about November 15, 2021.
