Item 1.01.       Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 11, 2013, FS Energy and Power Fund’s (“FSEP”) newly formed, wholly-owned, special-purpose financing subsidiary, Energy Funding LLC (“Energy Funding”), entered into a revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Natixis, New York Branch, as administrative agent and lender (“Natixis”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as collateral agent and custodian, and the other lenders from time to time party thereto.  The Credit Facility provides for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount up to $150,000,000 on a committed basis.

FSEP may contribute cash or debt securities to Energy Funding from time to time, subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Credit Facility, and will retain a residual interest in any assets contributed through its ownership of Energy Funding or will receive fair market value for any debt securities sold to Energy Funding. Energy Funding may purchase additional debt securities from various sources.  Energy Funding has appointed FSEP to manage its portfolio of debt securities pursuant to the terms of a collateral management agreement. Energy Funding’s obligations to the lenders under the Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Energy Funding, including its portfolio of debt securities. The obligations of Energy Funding under the Credit Facility are non-recourse to FSEP.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at a rate equal to the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.40% per annum. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to compliance with, among other things, an overcollateralization ratio test with respect to the current value of Energy Funding’s portfolio, an interest coverage ratio test with respect to the payments due under the Credit Facility and eligibility criteria with respect to the initial acquisition of each debt security in Energy Funding’s portfolio.

Energy Funding will be required to pay a non-usage fee to the extent the aggregate principal amount available under the Credit Facility has not been borrowed.  Any amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on July 11, 2023.  Energy Funding paid a structuring fee and incurred certain other customary costs and expenses in connection with obtaining the Credit Facility.

In connection with the Credit Facility, Energy Funding has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. In addition to customary events of default included in financing transactions, the Credit Facility contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to make principal payments when due or interest payments within five business days of when due; (b) Energy Funding becoming an investment company required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”); (c) certain events of insolvency or bankruptcy of Energy Funding; (d) the resignation or removal of FSEP as Energy Funding’s collateral manager; (e) FS Investment Advisor, LLC or any replacement thereof approved in writing by the majority lenders no longer serving as the investment adviser to FSEP; and (f) GSO Capital Partners LP or any replacement thereof approved in writing by the majority lenders no longer serving as the investment sub-adviser to FSEP.  Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the majority lenders or Natixis (acting at the discretion of the majority lenders) may declare the outstanding principal and interest and all other amounts owing under the Credit Facility immediately due and payable. During the continuation of an event of default, Energy Funding must pay interest at a default rate.

Borrowings of Energy Funding will be considered borrowings of FSEP for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act applicable to business development companies.

The foregoing descriptions of the Credit Facility and related agreements as set forth in this Item 1.01 are summaries only and are each qualified in all respects by the provisions of such agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.3 and are incorporated by reference herein.
