Item 5.02Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

On August 14, 2020, Michael L. Schwarz resigned as a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) and chairman of the audit committee of Flat Rock Capital Corp. (the “Company”). Mr. Schwarz’s resignation as a director was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

  

On August 20, 2020, the Board appointed Mr. Marshall Durston to fill the vacancy on the Board and audit committee created by the resignation of Mr. Schwarz. Mr. Durston’s biographical information is set forth below.

 

Since 2010, Mr. Durston has served as Managing Director of Spaulding & Slye Investments, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jones Lang LaSalle (“JLL”). In his capacity as Managing Director, he is responsible for the performance of a portfolio of properties valued at approximately $1 billion. From 2006 to 2010, prior to the acquisition of Spaulding and Slye Investments by JLL, he served as President of Spaulding & Slye Investments, and between 1983 and 2006 he served in various roles within the company, including Regional Director of the Mid-Atlantic Region and Chief Investment Officer. Mr. Durston holds a B.A. in Economics from Dennison University. Mr. Durston also sits on the Board of Trustees of New Hope Housing, and the Bucknell University Advisory Board and Career Development Committee.
