(a) | Security may be an obligation of one or more entities affiliated with the named company. |
(b) | Certain variable rate securities in FS Credit Opportunities Corp.’s, or the Fund’s, portfolio bear interest at a rate determined by a publicly disclosed base rate plus a basis point spread. As of September 30, 2023, the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, or L, was 5.66% and the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or Term SOFR, or S, was 5.40%. PIK means paid-in-kind. PIK income accruals may be adjusted based on the fair value of the underlying investment. Variable rate securities with no floor rate use the respective benchmark rate in all cases. |
(c) | Denominated in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted. |
(d) | Fair value is determined by the Fund’s investment adviser, FS Global Advisor, LLC which has been designated by the Fund’s Board of Directors as its valuation designee.

(e) | Security or portion thereof held by Blair Funding LLC, or Blair Funding, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund, and is pledged as collateral supporting the amounts outstanding under Blair Funding’s credit facility with Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as collateral agent. |

(j) | Includes the effect of investments sold short, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts. |
(k) | Implied credit spread, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of the credit default swap agreements as of period end serves as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represents the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular reference entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required in connection with the entrance into the agreement. Wider credit spreads generally represent a deterioration of the reference entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring, as defined under the terms of the applicable agreement. |

The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s audited consolidated financial statements contained in its annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and its unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in its semi-annual report for the semi-annual period ended June 30, 2023.
In general, under the 1940 Act, the Fund would be presumed to “control” a portfolio company if it owned more than 25% of its voting securities or had the power to exercise control over the management or policies of a portfolio company, and would be an “affiliated person” of a portfolio company if it owned 5% or more of its voting securities.
As of September 30, 2023, the Fund held investments in five portfolio companies of which it is deemed to be an “affiliated person” but is not deemed to “control,” and held an investment in one portfolio company of which it is deemed to “control.” For additional information with respect to such portfolio companies, see footnotes (t) and (u) to the unaudited consolidated schedule of investments as of September 30, 2023 included herein.

Under existing accounting guidance, fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction to a market participant in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. This accounting guidance emphasizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable market inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Fund classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy as defined by current accounting guidance:
Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs that are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable for an asset or liability.
A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
As of September 30, 2023, the Fund’s investments and derivatives were categorized as follows in the fair value hierarchy:
