Blackstone / GSO Senior Floating Rate Term Fund
September 30, 2011 (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION
Blackstone / GSO Senior Floating Rate Term Fund (the Fund or BSL) is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund was organized in Delaware on March 4, 2010. The Fund was registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), on March 5, 2010. The Fund commenced operations on May 26, 2010. Prior to that, the Fund had no operations other than matters relating to its organization and the sale and issuance of 5,236 common shares of beneficial interest in the Fund to GSO / Blackstone Debt Funds Management LLC (the Adviser) at a price of $19.10 per share. The Adviser serves as the Funds investment adviser. The Funds common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange) and trade under the ticker symbol BSL.
The Funds primary investment objective is to seek high current income, with a secondary objective to seek preservation of capital, consistent with its primary goal of high current income. Under normal market conditions, at least 80% of the Funds assets will be invested in senior secured, floating rate loans (Senior Loans). Senior Loans are made to U.S. and, to a limited extent, non-U.S. corporations, partnerships and other business entities (Borrowers) which operate in various industries and geographical regions.
The Fund is classified as non-diversified under the 1940 Act. As a result, it can invest a greater portion of its assets in obligations of a single issuer than a diversified fund. The Fund may therefore be more susceptible than a diversified fund to being adversely affected by any single corporate, economic, political, or regulatory occurrence.
Absent shareholder approval to extend the term of the Fund, the Fund will dissolve on or about May 31, 2020. Upon dissolution, the Fund will distribute substantially all of its net assets to shareholders, after making appropriate provision for any liabilities of the Fund. Pursuant to the Funds Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the Declaration of Trust), prior to the date of dissolution a majority of the Board of Trustees, with the approval of a majority of the shareholders entitled to vote (as defined in the 1940 Act) may extend the life of the Fund. If approved, the dissolution date of the Fund may be extended by a period of two years or such shorter time as may be determined. However, the dissolution date of the Fund may be extended an unlimited number of times.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements is in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and these differences could be material.
Portfolio Valuation: Net asset value per common share (NAV) is determined daily on each day that the Exchange is open for business, as of the close of the regular trading session on the Exchange. The Fund calculates NAV by subtracting liabilities (including accrued expenses or dividends) from the total assets of the Fund (the value of the securities plus cash or other assets, including interest accrued but not yet received) and dividing the result by the total number of outstanding common shares of the Fund.
Senior Loans are primarily priced by using the mid-price of market quotations from a nationally recognized loan pricing service. The methodology used by the Funds nationally recognized loan pricing provider, for composite loan prices, is to value loans at the mean of the bid prices from one or more brokers or dealers. Corporate bonds, other than short-term investments, are valued at the price provided by an independent pricing service. The prices provided by the independent service are based on the mean of bid and ask prices for each corporate bond security. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments, various relationships observed in the market between investments and calculated yield measures based on valuation technology commonly employed in the market for such investments. Short-term debt investments, if any, having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less when purchased would be valued at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Any investments and other assets for which such current market quotations are not readily
available are valued at fair value (Fair Valued Assets) as determined in good faith under procedures established by, and under the general supervision and responsibility of, the Funds Board of Trustees.
Various inputs are used to determine the value of the Funds investments. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Funds own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments at the measurement date.
Level 2 Significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds own assumption in determining the fair value of investments).
The valuation techniques used by the Fund to measure fair value during the period ended September 30, 2011 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of September 30, 2011 in valuing the Funds investments carried at value:

All securities of the Fund were valued using Level 2 inputs during the period ended September 30, 2011. Thus a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used is not applicable for the Fund.
There were no significant transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the period. It is the Funds policy to recognize transfers into and out of all levels at the end of the reporting period.

NOTE 3. SENIOR LOANS; SUBORDINATED LOANS
Senior Loans hold the most senior position in the capital structure of a business entity, are secured with specific collateral and have a claim on the assets and/or stock of the borrower that is senior to that held by unsecured creditors, subordinated debt holders and stockholders of the borrower. Senior Loans often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrowers to prepay at their election. The degree to which borrowers prepay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less then the stated maturities shown. However, floating-rate loans typically have an expected average life of two to four years. Floating-rate loans typically have rates of interest which are re-determined periodically, either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a floating base lending rate, primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), plus a premium.
Senior Loans can be rated below investment grade or may also be unrated. As a result, the risks associated with Senior Loans are similar to the risks of other below investment grade securities, although Senior Loans are senior and secured in contrast to other below investment grade securities, which are often subordinated or unsecured. Nevertheless, if a Borrower under a Senior Loan defaults or goes into bankruptcy, BSL may recover only a fraction of what is owed on the Senior Loan or nothing at all.
The Fund typically invests in Senior Loans rated below investment grade, which are considered speculative because of the credit risk of their issuers. Such companies are more likely than investment grade issuers to default on their payments of interest and principal owed to BSL, and such defaults could reduce BSLs net
asset value and income distributions. An economic downturn would generally lead to a higher non-payment rate, and a Senior Loan may lose significant market value before a default occurs. Moreover, any specific collateral used to secure a Senior Loan may decline in value or become illiquid, which would adversely affect the Senior Loans value.
In general, the secondary trading market for Senior Loans is not well developed. No active trading market may exist for certain Senior Loans, which may make it difficult to value them. Illiquidity and adverse market conditions may mean that BSL may not be able to sell Senior Loans quickly or at a fair price. To the extent that a secondary market does exist for certain Senior Loans, the market for them may be subject to irregular trading activity, wide bid/ask spreads and extended trade settlement periods.
Senior Loans and other variable rate debt instruments are subject to the risk of payment defaults of scheduled interest or principal. Such payment defaults would result in a reduction of income to the Fund, a reduction in the value of the investment and a potential decrease in the net asset value of BSL.
Although the Senior Loans in which BSL invests are secured by collateral, there can be no assurance that such collateral could be readily liquidated or that the liquidation of such collateral would satisfy the Borrowers obligation in the event of non-payment of scheduled interest or principal. In the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of a Borrower, BSL could experience delays or limitations with respect to its ability to realize the benefits of the collateral securing a Senior Loan. In the event of a decline in the value of the already pledged collateral, if the terms of a Senior Loan do not require the Borrower to pledge additional collateral, the Fund is exposed to the risk that the value of the collateral will not at all times equal or exceed the amount of the Borrowers obligations under the Senior Loans. To the extent that a Senior Loan is collateralized by stock in the Borrower or its subsidiaries, such stock may lose some or all of its value in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Borrower. Those Senior Loans that are under-collateralized involve a greater risk of loss.
The Fund may acquire Senior Loans through assignments, initial issuances, or participations. BSL typically acquires Senior Loans through assignment. The purchaser of an assignment typically succeeds to all the rights and obligations of the assigning institution and becomes a lender under the credit agreement with respect to the debt obligation; however, the purchasers rights can be more restricted than those of the assigning institution, and BSL may not be able to unilaterally enforce all rights and remedies under the loan and with regard to any associated collateral. The Fund may also acquire Senior Loans by participating In the initial issuance of the Senior Loan from the Borrower as part of a syndicate of banks and financial institutions. A participation typically results in a contractual relationship only with the institution participating out the interest, not with the Borrower. Sellers of participations typically include banks, broker-dealers, other financial institutions and lending institutions. The Adviser has adopted best execution procedures and guidelines to mitigate credit and counterparty risk in the atypical situation when the Fund must acquire a Senior Loan through a participation. The Adviser has established a risk and valuation committee that regularly reviews each broker-dealer counterparty for, among other things, its quality and the quality of its execution.
At September 30, 2011, the Fund has invested $27,659,089 in subordinated loans. Subordinated loans generally are subject to similar risks as those associated with investments in Senior Loans except that such loans are subordinated in payment and/or lower in lien priority to first lien holders. In the event of default on a subordinated loan, the first priority lien holder has first claim to the underlying collateral of the loan. Subordinated loans are subject to the additional risk that the cash flow of the Borrower and property securing the loan or debt, if any, may be insufficient to meet scheduled payments after giving effect to the senior unsecured or senior secured obligations of the Borrower. This risk is generally higher for subordinated unsecured loans or debt, which are not backed by a security interest in any specific collateral. Subordinated loans generally have greater price volatility than Senior Loans and may be less liquid.
NOTE 4. UNREALIZED APPRECIATION/ (DEPRECIATION)
