3.       Authority to Bind the Company; No Joint Venture.

(a)      Except as provided in or pursuant to Sections 1, 4 and 12 hereof, the Investment Manager shall have no authority to bind or obligate the Company. All acts of the Investment Manager (other than as provided in the LFSA, the Operating Agreement or in Section 1 or Section 12 hereof with respect to any Collateral Obligation) shall require the Company’s consent and approval to bind the Company. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create a joint venture or partnership between the parties with respect to the arrangements set forth in this Agreement.

(b)      The Investment Manager shall act in conformity with the written instructions and directions of the Company delivered in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, except to the extent that authority has been delegated to the Investment Manager pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Operating Agreement. The Investment Manager will not be bound to follow any amendment to the LFSA or the Operating Agreement until it has received written notice thereof and until it has received a copy of the amendment from the Company or the Administrative Agent; provided that if any such amendment materially affects the rights or duties of the Investment Manager, the Investment Manager shall not be

-5-

obligated to respect or comply with the terms of such amendment unless it consents thereto. Subject to the fiduciary duty of the Member, the Company agrees that it shall not permit any amendment to the Operating Agreement that materially affects the rights or duties of the Investment Manager to become effective unless the Investment Manager has been given prior written notice of such amendment and has consented thereto in writing. The Investment Manager may, with respect to the affairs of the Company, consult with such legal counsel, accountants and other advisors as may be selected by the Investment Manager. The Investment Manager shall be fully protected, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in acting or failing to act hereunder if such action or inaction is taken or not taken in good faith by the Investment Manager in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel, accountants or other advisors. The Investment Manager shall be fully protected in relying upon any writing signed in the appropriate manner with respect to any instruction, direction or approval of the Company and may also rely on opinions of the Investment Manager’s counsel with respect to such instructions, directions and approvals. The Investment Manager shall also be fully protected when acting upon any instrument, certificate or other writing the Investment Manager believes in good faith to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Investment Manager shall be under no duty to make any investigation or inquiry as to any statement contained in any such writing and may accept the same as conclusive evidence of the truth and accuracy of the statements therein contained if the Investment Manager in good faith believes the same to be genuine.

4.       Limitations Relating to Collateral Obligations.

(a)      Collateral Obligations.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4 and except in accordance with the Investment Management Standard, and subject to the requirements of the LFSA, the Operating Agreement and applicable law, the Investment Manager may cause the Company (which term shall include, for all purposes relating to the purchase and sale of Collateral Obligations and the duties and obligations of the Investment Manager set forth in Section 1 hereof, the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, if any) from time to time to purchase Collateral Obligations.

(b)      Reserved.

(c)      Reserved.

(d)      Transaction, Director, Consulting, Advisory, Closing and Break- up Fees. The Company shall receive its pro-rata share, measured by the amount invested or proposed to be invested by the Company in any Collateral Obligation, of any transaction, director, consulting, advisory, closing and break-up fees, or similar fees (“Additional Fees”) payable with respect to any Collateral Obligation. Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Operating Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any Additional Fees with respect to the Company’s share of such Investment are paid to the Investment Manager or any of its Affiliates, at the election of the Investment Manager, such amount will first be applied to reimburse the Investment Manager or its Affiliates for their out of pocket expenses in connection with the transaction giving rise to such fees and 100% of the balance will be applied to reduce the subsequent installments of the Management Fee (as defined below).

-6-

5.       Brokerage.

The Investment Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect all purchases and sales of securities in a manner consistent with the principles of best execution, taking into account net price (including commissions) and execution capability and other services which the broker or other intermediary may provide. In this regard, the Investment Manager may effect transactions which cause the Company to pay a commission in excess of a commission which another broker or other intermediary would have charged; provided, however, that the Investment Manager shall have first determined that such commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage or research services performed by that broker or other intermediary or that the Company is the sole beneficiary of the services provided.

6.       Compensation.

The Company agrees to pay to the Investment Manager and the Investment Manager agrees to accept as compensation for all services rendered by the Investment Manager as such, on each Distribution Date and to the extent not waived or deferred, the Primary IM Fee and the Secondary IM Fee for the related Collection Period pursuant to Section 8.3(a) of the LFSA.

7.       Expenses.

Other than as set forth below, the Company will be responsible for paying all of its expenses. On behalf of the Company, the Investment Manager may advance payment of any expenses, and the Company shall, upon request, reimburse the Investment Manager therefor within 30 days following written request from the Investment Manager. Nothing in this Section 7 shall limit the ability of the Investment Manager to be reimbursed by any Person other than the Company (including issuers or obligors of securities, instruments or obligations owned by the Company) for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Investment Manager in connection with the performance of services hereunder. The Investment Manager shall maintain complete and accurate records with respect to costs and expenses and shall furnish the Company with receipts or other written vouchers with respect thereto upon request of the Company. The Company shall bear the costs and expenses of all audits and inspections permitted by Sections 7.9 and Section 18.6 of the LFSA.

8.       Services to Other Companies or Accounts; Conflicts of Interest.

(a)      The Investment Manager and its Affiliates, employees or associates are in no way prohibited from, and intend to, spend substantial business time in connection with other businesses or activities, including, but not limited to, managing investments, advising or managing entities whose investment objectives are the same as or overlap with those of the Company, participating in actual or potential investments of the Company, providing consulting, merger and acquisition, structuring or financial advisory services, including with respect to actual, contemplated or potential investments of the Company, or acting as a director, officer or creditors’ committee member of, advisor to, or participant in, any corporation, company, trust or other business entity. The Investment Manager and its Affiliates may, and expect to, receive fees

-7-

or other compensation from third parties for any of these activities unrelated to the Company, which fees will be for the benefit of their own account and not the Company.

(b)      In addition, the Investment Manager and its Affiliates may manage other investment vehicles and separate accounts (“Other Accounts”) that invest in assets eligible for purchase by the Company. The Company may have the ability, under certain circumstances, to take certain actions that would have an adverse effect on Other Accounts. In these circumstances, the Investment Manager and its affiliated persons will act in a manner believed to be equitable to the Company and such Other Accounts, including co-investment in accordance with applicable laws, including the conditions of any exemptive relief obtained by the Company and the Investment Manager. The allocation of investment opportunities among the Company and Other Accounts will be made in good faith pursuant to the Investment Manager’s written allocation policies. The Investment Manager may combine purchase or sale orders on behalf of the Company with orders for Other Accounts, and allocate the assets so purchased or sold among such accounts in an equitable manner. The Company may invest in portfolio companies in which Other Accounts have or are concurrently making the same investment or a different investment (e.g., an investment that is junior to the Company’s investment). In such situations, the Company and the Other Accounts may potentially have conflicting interests. If any matter arises that the Investment Manager determines in its good faith judgment constitutes an actual conflict of interest, the Investment Manager may take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to ameliorate the conflict. These actions may include, by way of example and without limitation, disposing of the asset giving rise to the conflict of interest, appointing an independent fiduciary, or delegating decisions relating to the asset giving rise to the conflict of interest to a subcommittee of the Investment Manager.

9.      Duty of Care and Loyalty; Exculpation of Liability.

The Investment Manager shall exercise its discretion and authority in accordance with the Investment Management Standard.

10.      Indemnification.

(a)      To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall be held harmless and indemnified by the Investment Manager against any claims, demands, costs, liabilities and expenses, including amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or as fines and penalties, and counsel fees incurred by the Company (“Losses”) in connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, before any court or administrative or investigative body in which the Company may be or may have been involved as a party or otherwise or with which the Company may be or may have been threatened, while acting in connection with the establishment, management or operations of the Company or the management of the Collateral Obligations, provided, however, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that the Company shall not be indemnified hereunder if there has been a determination by a final decision on the merits by a court or other body of competent jurisdiction before whom the issue of entitlement to indemnification was brought that such Losses have been primarily attributable to the Company’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in performance, or reckless disregard, of its obligations; provided further, that the Investment Manager will not be required to indemnify the Company with respect to any Losses

-8-

(i) arising out of an action or claim brought against the Company by the Investment Manager or its Affiliates, or (ii) resulting from the performance or non-performance of the Collateral Obligations.

Indemnification under this Section 10(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of any Investment Manager Indemnified Party and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.

If for any reason (other than the exclusions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 10(a)) the indemnification provided above in Section 10(a) is unavailable to an Investment Manager Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Investment Manager Indemnified Party harmless, then the Investment Manager agrees to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Investment Manager Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Investment Manager Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Investment Manager and its Affiliates, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of such Investment Manager Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Investment Manager and its Affiliates, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

(b)

(i)      To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Investment Manager, and its Affiliates, or any officer, director, member, manager, employee, stockholder, assign, representative or agent of any such Person (each an “Indemnified Person”, and collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”) shall be held harmless and indemnified by the Company (solely out of the Collateral Obligations and in accordance with Section 10(b)(v) , and not (solely for the purposes of this Agreement) out of the separate assets of any Member) against any claims, demands, costs, liabilities and expenses, including amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or as fines and penalties, and counsel fees incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, before any court or administrative or investigative body in which such Indemnified Person may be or may have been involved as a party or otherwise (other than as authorized by the Directors of the Member, as the plaintiff or complainant) or with which such Indemnified Person may be or may have been threatened, while acting in such Person’s capacity as an Indemnified Person in connection with the establishment, management or operations of the Company or the management of the Collateral Obligations, provided, however, that an Indemnified Person shall not be indemnified hereunder if and to the extent resulting from such Indemnified Person’s bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard; provided further, that the Company will not be required to indemnify the Indemnified Persons with respect to any Losses (i) arising out of an action or claim brought against any Indemnified Person by the Company or its Affiliates, or (ii) resulting from the performance or non-performance of the Collateral Obligations.

(ii)      Only to the extent permitted pursuant to the terms of the LFSA, the Company shall make advance payments in connection with the expenses of defending

-9-

any action, suit or other proceeding with respect to which indemnification might be sought hereunder if the Company receives a written affirmation by the Indemnified Person of the Indemnified Person’s good faith belief that the standards of conduct necessary for indemnification have been met and a written undertaking to reimburse the Company unless it is subsequently determined that the Indemnified Person is entitled to such indemnification and if a majority of the Directors of the Member determine that the applicable standards of conduct necessary for indemnification appear to have been met. In addition, at least one of the following conditions must be met: (i) the Indemnified Person shall provide adequate security for its undertaking (ii) the Company shall be insured against losses arising by reason of any lawful advances, or (iii) independent legal counsel in a written opinion, shall conclude, based on a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry), that there is substantial reason to believe that the Indemnified Person ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification. Any payments pursuant to this Section 10(b)(ii) while the LFSA is in effect will be paid solely in accordance with Section 8.3 of the LFSA (subject to the availability of funds and to the conditions set forth in the LFSA).

(iii)      The rights accruing to any Indemnified Person under these provisions shall not exclude any other right to which such Indemnified Person may be lawfully entitled.

(iv)      Each Indemnified Person (other than the Investment Manager) shall, in the performance of its duties, be fully and completely justified and protected with regard to any act or any failure to act resulting from reliance in good faith upon the books of account or other records of the Company, upon an opinion of counsel, or upon reports made to the Company by any of the Company’s officers or employees or by any advisor, administrator, manager, distributor, selected dealer, accountant, appraiser or other expert or consultant selected with reasonable care by the Directors of the Member, officers or employees of the Company, regardless of whether such counsel or other person may also be a Director of the Member. The Investment Manager shall, in the performance of its duties, be fully and completely justified and protected with regard to any act or any failure to act resulting from reliance in good faith upon any books of account or other records of the Company that were prepared by an agent or other third party, upon an opinion of counsel, or upon reports made to the Company by any advisor, administrator, manager, distributor, selected dealer, accountant, appraiser or other expert or consultant selected with reasonable care by the Directors of the Member, officers or employees of the Company, regardless of whether such counsel or other person may also be a Director of the Member.

(v)      Any payments pursuant to Section 10(b)(i) while the LFSA is in effect will be paid solely in accordance with Section 8.3 of the LFSA (subject to the availability of funds and to the conditions set forth in the LFSA). All determinations that may be made to make advance payments in connection with the expense of defending or settling any action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, shall be authorized and made (if so authorized and made) in accordance with paragraph (b)(ii) above.

11.      Term of Agreement; Events Affecting the Investment Manager; Survival of Certain Terms; Delegation.

-10-

(a)      This Agreement shall become effective as of the date hereof and, unless sooner terminated by the Company or the Investment Manager as provided herein, shall continue in effect for the term of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be terminated by the Company without the payment of any penalty, upon the occurrence of a “cause” event. A “cause” event for purposes of this Section 11(a) shall have occurred by reason of (i) the conviction (or plea of no contest) for a felony of the Investment Manager, (ii) the conviction (or plea of no contest) for a felony of an officer or a member of the board of directors of the Investment Manager, if the employment or other affiliation of such Person so convicted is not terminated by the Investment Manager within 30 days of such conviction and the Member votes thereafter to invoke this termination provision, or (iii) the Investment Manager or an officer or a member of the board of directors of the Investment Manager has engaged in gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to the Company that has resulted in a material adverse effect on the Company or the Collateral Obligations, or has committed a knowing material violation of securities laws, each as determined by a final decision of a court or binding arbitration decision unless, in the case of such natural persons, their employment or other affiliation with the Investment Manager is terminated or suspended within 30 days after discovery by the Investment Manager. The Investment Manager shall promptly provide written notice to the Member upon the occurrence of a “cause” event.

(b)      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Sections 7 and 10 of this Agreement shall survive any termination hereof.

(c)      From and after the effective date of termination of this Agreement, the Investment Manager and its Affiliates shall not be entitled to compensation for further services hereunder, but shall be paid all compensation and reimbursement of expenses accrued to the date of termination. Upon such termination, or upon the occurrence of an Investment Manager Event of Default and upon request by the Borrower, the Investment Manager shall deliver as directed copies of its Records within five Business Days after demand therefor and a computer tape or diskette (or any other means of electronic transmission acceptable to the successor investment manager) containing as of the close of business on the date of demand all of the data maintained by the Investment Manager in computer format in connection with managing the Collateral Obligations. The Investment Manager agrees to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with any successor investment manager in the transfer of its responsibilities hereunder, and will, among other things, provide upon receipt of a written request by such successor investment manager any information available to it regarding any Collateral Obligations. The Investment Manager agrees that, notwithstanding any termination, it will reasonably cooperate in any proceeding arising in connection with this Agreement, the LFSA or any Collateral Obligation (excluding any such proceeding in which claims are asserted against the Investment Manager or any Affiliate of the Investment Manager) upon receipt of appropriate indemnification and expense reimbursement.

(d)      Until a successor investment manager has commenced investment management activities in the place of FS Investment Corporation II, FS Investment Corporation II shall not resign as Investment Manager hereunder. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law without causing the Investment Manager to have liability, the resignation of the Investment Manager shall not become effective until an entity approved in accordance with Section 7.2(a) of the LFSA and shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Investment Manager.

12.     Power of Attorney; Further Assurances.

In addition to the power of attorney granted to the Investment Manager in Section 1 of this Agreement, the Company hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Investment Manager, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in its name, place and stead, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (a) to sign, execute, certify, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file, receive and record any and all documents which the Investment Manager reasonably deems necessary or appropriate in connection with its investment management duties under this Agreement and (b) to (i) subject to any policies adopted by the Member or the Company with respect thereto, exercise in its discretion any voting or consent rights associated with any securities, instruments or obligations included in the Company’s assets, (ii) execute proxies, waivers, consents and other instruments with respect to such securities, instruments or obligations, (iii) endorse, transfer or deliver such securities, instruments and obligations and (iv) participate in or consent (or decline to consent) to any modification, work-out, restructuring, bankruptcy proceeding, class action, plan of reorganization, merger, combination, consolidation, liquidation or similar plan or transaction with regard to such securities, instruments and obligations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this grant of power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, and it shall survive and not be affected by the subsequent dissolution or bankruptcy of the Company; provided that this grant of power of attorney will expire, and the Investment Manager will cease to have any power to act as the Company’s attorney-in-fact, upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. The Company shall execute and deliver to the Investment Manager all such other powers of attorney, proxies, dividend and other orders, and all such instruments, as the Investment Manager may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Investment Manager to exercise the rights and powers which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this Agreement. Each of the Investment Manager and the Company shall take such other actions, and furnish such certificates, opinions and other documents, as may be reasonably requested by the other party hereto in order to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement and to facilitate compliance with applicable laws and regulations and the terms of this Agreement.

13.     Amendment of this Agreement; Assignment.

No provision of this Agreement may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. If the Company has outstanding any securities rated by a rating agency, the Company shall promptly provide a copy of any such amendment or waiver to such rating agency. The Investment Manager may not, directly or indirectly, assign all or any part of its rights and duties under this Agreement to any Person without the prior consent of the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders. In accordance with the foregoing, the Investment Manager may transfer this Agreement or its rights and duties under this Agreement without obtaining the prior consent of the Company or providing prior notice to the Member in a transaction that does not result in an Investment Manager Event of Default, change in control or management of the Investment Manager.

25.     Managing REO Assets.

(a)      If, in the reasonable business judgment of the Investment Manager, it becomes necessary to foreclose upon or repossess from the applicable Obligor any real property securing any Collateral Obligation (each such Collateral Obligation, an “REO Asset”), the Investment Manager shall first cause the Borrower to transfer and assign such Collateral Obligation (or the portion thereof owned by the Borrower) to a special purpose vehicle meeting the requirements of Section 10.5 of the LFSA and wholly owned by the Borrower (the “REO Asset Owner”) using a contribution agreement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. All equity interests of the REO Asset Owner acquired by the Borrower shall immediately become a part of the Collateral and be subject to the grant of a security interest under Section 12.1 of the LFSA and shall be promptly delivered to the Collateral Agent, each undated and duly indorsed in blank. The REO Asset Owner shall be formed and operated pursuant to organizational documents reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. After execution thereof, the Investment Manager shall prevent the REO Asset Owner from agreeing to any amendment or other modification of the REO Asset Owner’s organizational documents without first obtaining the written consent of the Administrative Agent. The Investment Manager shall cause each REO Asset to be serviced (i) in accordance with applicable laws, (ii) in accordance with the Investment Management Standard and (iii) in accordance with the applicable REO Asset Owner’s limited liability company operating agreement (collectively, the “REO Investment Management Standard”). The Investment Manager will cause all “Distributable Cash” (or comparable definition set forth in the REO Asset Owner’s organization documents) to be deposited into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof.

(b)      In the event that title to any Related Property is acquired on behalf of the REO Asset Owner for the benefit of its members in foreclosure, by deed in lieu of foreclosure or upon abandonment or reclamation from bankruptcy, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of a REO Asset Owner. The Investment Manager shall cause the REO Asset Owner to manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Asset for its members solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale.

(c)      Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Investment Manager shall not (and shall not permit the REO Asset Owner to) obtain title to any Related Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, obtain title to any direct or indirect partnership interest in any Obligor pledged pursuant to a pledge agreement and thereby be the beneficial owner of Related Property, have a receiver of rents appointed with respect to, and shall not otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, any Related Property if, as a result of any such action, the REO Asset Owner would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of, such Related Property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any

-17-

comparable state or local environmental law, unless the Investment Manager has previously determined in accordance with the REO Investment Management Standard, based on an updated Phase I environmental assessment report generally prepared in accordance with the ASTM Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Standard E 1527-05, as may be amended or, with respect to residential property, a property inspection and title report, that:

(i)      such Related Property is in compliance in all material respects with applicable environmental laws, and

(ii)      there are no circumstances present at such Related Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation would reasonably be expected to be required by the owner, occupier or operator of the Related Property under applicable federal, state or local law or regulation.

(d)      In the event that the Phase I or other environmental assessment first obtained by the Investment Manager with respect to Related Property indicates that such Related Property may not be in compliance with applicable environmental laws or that hazardous materials may be present but does not definitively establish such fact, the Investment Manager shall cause the Borrower to immediately sell the related Loan in accordance with Section 7.10 of the LFSA to the extent permitted thereunder.

26.      No Proceedings.

(a)      The Investment Manager hereby agrees that it will not institute against the Borrower, or join any other Person in instituting against the Borrower, any insolvency proceeding (namely, any proceeding of the type referred to in the definition of Insolvency Event) so long as any Advances or other amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be outstanding or there shall not have elapsed one year plus one day since the last day on which any such Advances or other amounts shall be outstanding. The foregoing shall not limit the Investment Manager’s right to file any claim in or otherwise take any action with respect to any insolvency proceeding that was instituted by any Person other than the Investment Manager.

(b)      The Investment Manager hereby agrees that it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against any Conduit Lender, any insolvency proceeding (namely, any proceeding of the type referred to in the definition of Insolvency Event) so long as any commercial paper note issued by such applicable Conduit Lender shall be outstanding or there shall not have elapsed one year plus one day since the last day on which any such commercial paper notes shall be outstanding.

27.      Confidentiality.

The Investment Manager shall hold in confidence, and not disclose to any Person, the identity of any Lender or the terms of any fees payable in connection with any Transaction Document except it may disclose such information (i) to its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, accountants, auditors, advisors, prospective lenders, equity investors or representatives, (ii) with the consent of such Lender, (iii) to the extent such information has become available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by or through such Person,

-18-

(iv) to the extent the Investment Manager or any Affiliate deems disclosure reasonably prudent under, or should be required by, any law or regulation applicable to it, or (v) as requested by any Official Body to disclose such information.
