March 31, 2016 FSFR’S ANNUAL MEETING IS DAYS AWAY – VOTE GREEN TODAY Important New Development For FSFR Stockholders: INDEPENDENT EXPERT and LEADING PROXY ADVISORY FIRM, Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”), has issued a report recommending that FSFR stockholders vote FOR ALL OF IRONSIDES’ PROPOSALS as outlined on the GREEN proxy card. ISS1 criticizes FSFR for: “Prolonged Underperformance” “Excessive Management Fees” “Pervasive Discount to NAV” (1) Permission neither sought nor obtained from ISS. VOTE TO SELL THE COMPANY AND NARROW THE DISCOUNT Vote FOR the election of Ironsides’ nominees Imagine what FSFR could achieve if sold.2 Even if FSFR were acquired at a 10% discount to NAV, the result would be an immediate 35% gain to stockholders. Vote FOR the termination of the investment advisory agreement with FSM (2) The Ironsides nominees will advocate for a sale or other business combination transaction to eliminate or materially reduce the discount to NAV. While not assured, the benefits of a such a transaction make it worth pursuing aggressively. INDEPENDENT THIRD PARTY AGREES, CHANGE NEEDED AT FSFR PROLONGED UNDERPERFORMACE FSFR has experienced dismal performance since its IPO in July 2013. JULY 11, 2013 $15/SHARE MARCH 28, 2016 $7.57/SHARE in a few short years We urge all stockholders to FOLLOW THE ISS RECOMMENDATION by voting GREEN today FOR the election of our nominees and FOR the termination of the agreement with FSM – which we believe will bring us one step closer to selling the Company and creating value for all FSFR stockholders. TIME IS SHORT: VOTE FOR ALL THE PROPOSALS AS OUTLINED ON THE GREEN CARD TODAY YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE YOUR VOTE. IF YOU VOTE GREEN NOW IT WILL CHANGE ANY PREVIOUS VOTE.
