|
Securities
are US securities, unless otherwise noted.
|
|
(a)
|
Senior
loans pay interest at rates that are periodically determined on the basis of a floating benchmark lending rate, often subject
to a floor, plus a spread, unless otherwise indicated. The most popular benchmark lending rates are the London Interbank Offered
Rate (“LIBOR”), the rate that contributor banks in London charge each other for interbank deposits, and the prime
rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks (“Prime”). Both LIBOR and Prime were utilized as benchmark lending
rates for the senior loans at September 30, 2019. The rates shown represent the contractual rates (benchmark rate or floor
plus spread) in effect at period end. Senior loans often require prepayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower
to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election,
cannot be predicted with accuracy.
|
|
(b)
|
Fair
Value Level 3 security. All remaining securities are categorized as Level 2.
|
|
(c)
|
All
or a portion of this position has not settled as of September 30, 2019. The Fund will not accrue interest on its senior loans
until the settlement date at which point LIBOR will be established.
|
|
(d)
|
Subsequent
to September 30, 2019, Charming Charlie filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and the related loans were put on non-accrual.
|
|
(e)
|
Security
has been deemed illiquid and has been fair valued in good faith in accordance with procedures established by the Board of
Trustees.
|
|
(f)
|
The
Fund held defaulted securities for which the income has been deemed uncollectible. As of September 30, 2019, the aggregate
value of those securities was $289,893, representing 0.2% of the Fund’s net assets. The Fund no longer accrues income
on securities once the income has been deemed uncollectible.
|
|
(g)
|
Security
was purchased pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be resold subject to that rule except to
qualified institutional buyers. Total fair value of Rule 144A securities amounts to $1,274,045 which represents approximately
1.0% of net assets as of September 30, 2019. Unless otherwise noted, 144A securities are deemed to be liquid.

(h)

1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
THL
Credit Senior Loan Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified, closed-end management investment company registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund is an unincorporated business trust established under the laws of Delaware
by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated July 30, 2013. The Fund was previously classified as a non-diversified investment
company. The Fund commenced operations on September 20, 2013.
The
Fund’s investment objective is to provide current income and preservation of capital primarily through investments in U.S.
dollar-denominated senior secured corporate loans and notes (“Senior Loans”). Under normal circumstances, the Fund
will invest at least 80% of its Managed Assets, defined as total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to borrowings
for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings
for investment purposes in Senior Loans. The Senior Loans in which the Fund will invest are fully collateralized, first lien corporate
loans and notes. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its Managed Assets in other securities, including high yield securities,
notes, bonds, convertible securities, second lien loans and other subordinated debt and collateralized loan obligations. The Fund’s
investments in high yield bonds, not including Senior Loans, will be limited to 10% of the Fund’s Managed Assets.
THL
Credit Advisors LLC (the “Adviser”)
serves as the Fund’s investment adviser.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
Fund is an investment company that applies the accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board
Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”. The Fund’s
financial statements have been prepared to comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These principles
require the Adviser to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could
differ from those estimates. The Fund follows the significant accounting policies described in this section, as well as the
valuation policies described in the next section on valuation.
The
following summarizes the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
Securities
Valuation: The Fund holds portfolio securities that are fair valued at the close of each day on the New York Stock Exchange
(“NYSE”), normally at 4:00 P.M., Eastern Time. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or
paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Board of Trustees
(the “Board”) has delegated fair valuation responsibilities to a valuation committee (the “Committee”),
subject to the Board’s supervision and direction, through the adoption of procedures for valuation of the Fund’s securities
(the “Valuation Procedures”). The Committee consists of certain designated individuals of the Adviser. Under the current
Valuation Procedures, the Committee is responsible for, among other things, determining and monitoring the value of the Fund’s
assets. The Valuation Procedures allow the Fund to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers
and other valuation methods in events when market quotations are not readily available or not representative of the fair value
of the securities.
The
Fund’s securities are valued by various methods, as described below:
Senior
Loans are valued at prices supplied by the Fund’s pricing agent based on broker-dealer supplied valuations (including mid
or average prices) and other criteria. If the Committee does not believe that the pricing agent price reflects the current market
value, the Adviser will determine a recommended method of valuing the Senior Loan for consideration by the Committee.
Fixed
income securities (including short-term obligations) are valued at prices supplied by the Fund’s pricing agent based on
broker-dealer supplied valuations, or in the absence of broker-dealer supplied valuations, matrix pricing, a method of valuing
securities by reference to the value of other securities with similar characteristics, such as rating, interest rate and maturity.
Exchange
traded equity securities and warrants are valued at the last quoted sales price as of the close of the exchange or, in the absence
of a sale, the closing bid price, with the exception that for securities traded on the London Stock Exchange and National Association
of Securities Dealers’ Automated Quotation System, those securities are valued at the official closing price.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Non-exchange
traded equity securities are valued at prices supplied by the Fund’s pricing agent based on the average of the bid/ask prices
quoted by brokers that are knowledgeable about the securities.
Money
market funds are valued at their net asset value.
If
a price is not available from an independent pricing service or broker, or if the price provided is believed to be unreliable,
the security will be fair valued pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board. As a general principle, the fair value of a security
would appear to be the amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for it in a current sale. Fair value methods may
include, but are not limited to, the use of market comparable and/or income approach methodologies. Using a fair value pricing
methodology to value securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent sale price and from
the prices used by other investment companies to calculate their NAV. Determination of fair value is uncertain because it involves
subjective judgments and estimates. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s valuation of a security will not differ from
the amount that it realizes upon the sale of such security.
Fair Value Measurement
Various
inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels
listed below:
Level
1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level
2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, quoted prices
for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.
Level
3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing
the Fund’s own assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability based on the best information
available.
Investments
that use Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to: (i) an unlisted security related to corporate actions;
(ii) a restricted security (e.g., one that may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended); (iii) a security whose trading has been suspended or which has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; (iv)
a security that is thinly traded; (v) a security in default or bankruptcy proceedings for which there is no current market quotation;
(vi) a security affected by currency controls or restrictions; and (vii) a security affected by a significant event (e.g., an
event that occurs after the close of the markets on which the security is traded but before the time as of which a Fund’s
net asset value is computed and that may materially affect the value of the Fund’s investment). Examples of events that
may be “significant events” are government actions, natural disasters, armed conflicts and acts of terrorism.
The
categorization of a value determined for investments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and does not necessarily
correspond to the Fund’s perceived risk of investing in those securities.
The
valuation techniques used by the Fund to measure fair value during the period ended September 30, 2019 were intended to
maximize the use of observable inputs and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The
following table summarizes the valuation of the Fund’s investments under the fair value hierarchy levels as of September
30, 2019:

Value Measurement (continued)
Investments
were transferred into Level 3 during the period ended September 30, 2019 due to changes in the quantity and quality of information,
specifically the number of vendor quotes available to support the valuation of each investment and the increased incidence of
stale prices, as assessed by the Adviser. Investments were transferred out of Level 3 during the period ended September 30, 2019
