THL Credit Senior Loan Fund

Manager Commentary (unaudited)

June 30, 2014

Fellow Shareholders:

On behalf of the management teams at both Four Wood Capital Advisors LLC and THL Credit Advisors LLC, we are pleased to share with you the performance highlights for THL Credit Senior Loan Fund (the “Fund”) for the first half of 2014, along with a review of the loan market over the same period.

First Half 2014 Loan Market in Review

The U.S. Leveraged Loan Market demonstrated strong performance in the first half of 2014 with a return of 2.77% for the six month period,1 as measured by the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index (the “Index”). The majority of the return was generated by interest income, as loan prices were relatively stable over the period, driven largely by Collateralized Loan Obligation (“CLO”) demand. The average price of the Index began the year at 98.54% and remained below par at 99.08%2 at the end of the first half with reasonable supply meeting fairly strong demand.

Year-to-date Bank Loan price outperformance is coming from distressed, second-lien and new issue opportunities. Single B and BB-rated loan prices stabilized over the first half of the year. CCC/Split CCC Bank Loan prices rose, from 87.42% to 98.09%.2 We believe the price increase in the Index sector was driven primarily by Energy Future Holdings (“EFH”, also known as “TXU”) being removed from this category upon its default, bringing the average price up. The Fund has never owned EFH. Second-lien bank loans were the standout performer in the first half of the year in the Index, returning 4.98%.2 These bank loans remain highly sought after by CLOs in the current low yield environment, especially with more recent CLOs focusing their non-first lien exposure on second liens as opposed to high yield bonds.

Total loan issuance in the first half of 2014 was $322 billion, with a slight decrease from $169 billion in the first quarter to $153 billion in the second quarter.3 Refinancing activity, which accounted for over half of the first quarter’s total volume, dwindled to just 5% of total volume in the second quarter, or $7.3 billion.3 Overall, refinancing activity for the first half of the year was down 49.2% compared to the same period in 2013.4 With a smaller amount of near-term bank loan maturities, as well as a stable market environment, yields have remained near 2013 levels. This made it difficult for issuers to lower their debt costs via refinancing.

Demand for retail bank loan mutual funds and CLOs came in at $61.5 billion.3 The streak of 93 weeks of inflows into retail bank loan funds ended during the second quarter, as moderate outflows were seen throughout all three months, totaling approximately $8.0 billion.3 Despite outflows from the retail market, CLO issuance remained strong, totaling $60.6 billion3 for the six month period, with second quarter issuance of $37.9 billion3 being the largest quarter of CLO issuance on record. This helped support Bank Loan prices as well as clear the new issue supply.

The 12-month rolling default rate (for the S&P LSTA Leveraged Loan Index) as of June 30, 2014 was 4.41%,5 reflecting the default of EFH on $19.5 billion in outstanding debt – the largest bank loan default in history. This event has led the market to view two default rates simultaneously, with and without the default of EFH. Since the default by EFH had been widely anticipated by the market and factored into the loan’s price over the past year, the bank loan market was generally not impacted by this event. Excluding the default of EFH, the 12-month rolling default rate would be at 1.08%5.

THL Credit Senior Loan Fund Performance

We are pleased to share with you the continued performance that the Fund has delivered to shareholders through June 30th, 2014. Having commenced operations on September 20, 2013 and having completed just over nine months of operations, we are pleased with the results. Following its initial public offering (“IPO”) in September 2013, the Fund was able to rapidly deploy its IPO proceeds along with proceeds from its credit facility to generate both net investment income and short term capital gains, enabling the Fund to deliver a monthly distribution of $0.119 per share. This distribution rate was maintained throughout the first half of 2014 and into the third quarter of 2014. The Fund’s current distribution rate and year-to-date net asset

value (“NAV”) gains continue to be among the highest relative to those of its comparable peers in the senior bank loan category6, and in doing so, maintains the lowest leverage levels in the peer group. This performance comes as a result of our portfolio management team’s disciplined credit research and loan selection process as well as their active management of the portfolio which has elicited incremental returns through harvested capital gains. These figures are noted for your reference in this semi-annual report.

As of June 30, 2014, the Fund has accumulated total investments recorded at fair value of approximately $193.3 million, or 133.0% of net assets. NAV per share increased from $19.42 at December 31, 2013 to $19.58 at June 30, 2014. The Fund’s leverage as a percentage of 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) at year-end was 19.87% and averaged 22.0% over the six month period. In order to take advantage of new opportunities to acquire new assets as they arise, the Fund may seek to increase its use of leverage over the next several months.

Throughout the first half of 2014, and particularly in the second quarter of 2014, we continued to see attractive opportunities in the new-issue Bank Loan market, leading to decreased Fund allocations in fixed rate bonds in favor of higher exposure to Bank Loans. At June 30, 2014, the Fund held 87.7% of its Managed Assets in fully collateralized first-lien loans, up from 80.0% at December 31, 2013, and an additional 13.9% in second-lien loans, up slightly from 12.5% at year end. The Fund’s allocation to fixed rate bonds was reduced from 6.6% at year end to 0.27% at June 30, 2014. The Fund held 117 Bank Loans and corporate bonds across 28 industries. The top 5 industry positions represented approximately 41% of the Fund’s total holdings, while the top 10 individual positions represented approximately 19% of the Fund’s total holdings.

The Fund outperformed the Index, on both a market price per share and NAV per share basis, for the six month period ended June 30, 2014. Over the period, the Fund had returns of 3.50% on a market price basis and 4.57% on a NAV basis, while the Index returned 2.77%1. Since its inception on September 20, 2013 through June 30, 2014, the Fund had returns of -3.74% on a market price basis and 7.85% on a NAV basis, with the Index returning 4.41%1 over the same period. Since inception through June 30, 2014, the Fund has traded at an average discount to NAV of −4.0%.

On behalf of the management team and the Board of Trustees, I thank you for your continued commitment in your investments with the Fund.

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 market value of Rule 144A securities amounts to $495,625 which represents approximately 0.3% of net assets as of June 30, 2014. Unless otherwise noted, 144A securities are deemed to be liquid.

(a)

Senior loans pay interest at rates that are periodically determined on the basis of a floating benchmark lending rate plus a spread. The most popular benchmark lending rate is the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). LIBOR is based on rates that contributor banks in London charge each other for interbank deposits and is typically used to set coupon rates on floating rate debt securities. The rate shown represents the contractual rate (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. As a result, the actual maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity shown.

(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. The full contract rates reflected do not take effect until settlement date.

(d)

Rate shown reflects the 7-day yield as of June 30, 2014.

Realized and unrealized gain on investments per share in this caption are balancing amounts necessary to reconcile the change in net asset value per share for the period, and may not reconcile with the aggregate gains and losses in the Statement of Operations due to the share transactions for the period.

3.

Total investment return does not reflect brokerage commissions. Dividends and distributions are assumed to be reinvested at the prices obtained under the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan. Net Asset Value (“NAV”) total return is calculated assuming reinvestment of distributions at NAV on the date of the distribution.

4.

Reflects adjustments in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States of America. The net asset value for financial reporting purposes and the returns based upon those net assets may differ from the net asset values and returns reported on June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

5.

Annualized.

6.

Asset coverage equals the total net assets plus borrowings divided by the borrowings of the Fund outstanding at period end (Note 4). As debt outstanding changes, level of invested assets may change accordingly. Asset coverage ratio provides a measure of leverage.

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)

June 30, 2014

1. ORGANIZATION

THL Credit Senior Loan Fund (the “Fund”) is a non-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 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”). Four Wood Capital Advisors LLC (the “Adviser” or “FWCA”) serves as the Fund’s investment adviser (the “Adviser”). FWCA has engaged THL Credit Advisors LLC (the “Sub-adviser” or “THL Credit”) to serve as the sub-adviser to the Fund.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in these financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

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 Fund’s Adviser and Sub-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 shall be valued at prices supplied by the Fund’s pricing agent based on broker-dealer supplied valuations (including mid or average prices) and other criteria or directly by independent brokers when the pricing agent does not provide a price or the Valuation Committee does not believe that the pricing agent price reflects the current market value. If a price of a position is sought using independent brokers, the Sub-adviser shall seek to obtain an evaluation bid price from at least two independent brokers who are knowledgeable about the position. The price of the position would be deemed to be an average of such bid prices.

Fixed income securities shall be 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.

Certain short-term debt instruments will be valued on an amortized cost basis. Under this method of valuation, the instrument is initially valued at cost. For securities purchased at a discount or premium, the Fund assumes a constant proportionate amortization in value until maturity, regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the instrument. While the amortized cost method provides certainty in valuation, it may result in periods during which value, as determined by amortized cost, is higher or lower than the price that would be received upon sale of the instrument.

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 June 30, 2014 were intended to maximize the use of observable inputs and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The following is a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value:


Balance as of December 31, 2013	$	60,807,408
Realized gain		(192	)
Change in unrealized appreciation		433,682
Amortization (accretion)		156,676
Purchases		18,879,172
Sales and principal paydowns		(16,781,531	)
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3		(4,743,134	)
Balance as of June 30, 2014	$	58,752,081

Net change in unrealized appreciation included in the Statement of Operations attributable to Level 3 investments held at June 30, 2014 was $433,682.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the period. It is the Fund’s policy to recognize transfers into and out of all levels at the beginning of the reporting period.

Information about Level 3 fair value measurements as of June 30, 2014:

				Fair Value			Valuation Technique			Unobservable Input			Input Values
	Senior Loans			$58,752,081			Third-party vendor service			Vendor quotes				$	94.50 - $102.50

Investment Transactions and Investment Income

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discount and amortization of premiums, is recorded on an accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on investments, if any, are determined on an identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Paydown gains and losses are netted and recorded as interest income on the Statement of Operations.

Interest Expense

Interest expense primarily relates to the Fund’s borrowings and is recorded on an accrual basis.

Federal Income Tax Information

The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the requirements of Subchapter M of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute substantially all of its earnings to its shareholders. While no federal income tax provision is required, in early 2014 the Fund paid an excise tax liability of approximately $27,483 relating to the tax year 2013.

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund as a whole.

Fund management has determined that the Fund has not taken any uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements. The Fund will file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and tax returns in certain other jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2014, the tax year ended December 31, 2013 remains subject to examination by the Fund’s major tax jurisdictions.

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)

June 30, 2014

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Distributions

The Fund intends to make regular monthly cash distributions of all or a portion of net investment income to common shareholders. The Fund also intends to distribute to common shareholders annually all or substantially all of its net investment income after the payment of interest, if any, owed with respect to outstanding borrowings. The Fund intends to pay any capital gain distributions annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. To the extent distributions exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes, they are reported as distributions to shareholders from return of capital.

Indemnifications

Under the Fund’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.

3. SENIOR LOANS

Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80.0% of its Managed Assets, defined as the 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 fully collateralized, first lien corporate loans and notes. At June 30, 2014, 87.7% of the Fund’s Managed Assets were held in first lien Senior Loans.

Senior Loans are generally non-investment grade floating rate instruments that are secured by assets of the borrower. They generally hold a senior position in the capital structure of a borrower. Thus, they are generally repaid before unsecured Bank Loans, corporate bonds, subordinated debt, trade creditors, and preferred or common stockholders.

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. As a result, the actual maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity shown. Senior loans typically pay interest at rates that are periodically determined on the basis of a floating benchmark lending rate plus a spread.

Risks associated with first lien Senior Loans include (i) the borrower’s inability to meet principal and interest payments on its obligations; (ii) the fact that prepayments may occur at any time without premium or penalty and that the exercise of prepayment rights during periods of declining spreads could cause the Fund to reinvest prepayment proceeds in lower-yielding investments, and (iii) price volatility due to such factors as interest rate sensitivity, market perception of the credit worthiness of the borrower and general market liquidity.

Second lien loans are generally second in line in terms of repayment priority. Second lien loans generally are subject to similar risks as those associated with investments in first lien Senior Loans. In addition, because second lien loans are subordinated in payment and/or lower in lien priority to first lien Senior Loans, they are subject to additional risk that the cash flow of the borrower and property securing the loan or debt may be insufficient to meet scheduled payments after giving effect to the senior secured obligations of the borrower. At June 30, 2014, the Fund had invested $25,258,490 in second lien loans.

The Fund may purchase assignments of, and participations in, Senior Loans originated, negotiated and structured by a U.S. or foreign commercial bank, insurance company, finance company or other financial institution (the “Agent”) for a lending syndicate of financial institutions (the “Lender”). When purchasing an assignment, the Fund succeeds to all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement

THL Credit Senior Loan Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)

June 30, 2014

3. SENIOR LOANS (continued)

with the same rights and obligations as the assigning Lender. Assignments may, however, be arranged through private negotiations between potential assignees and potential assignors, and the rights and obligations acquired by the purchaser of an assignment may differ from, and be more limited than, those held by the assigning Lender.

4. BORROWINGS

On October 2, 2013, the Fund entered into a $70.0 million credit agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon expiring on October 1, 2014 (the “Credit Facility”). In accordance with the 1940 Act, the Fund’s borrowings under the Credit Facility will not exceed 33% of the Fund’s Managed Assets at the time of borrowing. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by the Fund’s assets as collateral. The Credit Facility bears an unused commitment fee on the unused portion of the credit facility (the “Unused Facility Amount”) equal to 0.08% on the total Unused Facility Amount. The per annum rate of interest for borrowing under the Credit Facility is equal to (a) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for one, two, three, six or twelve months, as selected by the Fund, plus 1.000% per annum or (b) the greater of (i) the Prime Rate and (ii) 0.50% plus the Federal Funds Effective Rate per annum and is payable monthly. At June 30, 2014, the Fund had borrowings outstanding of $36,000,000 at an average interest rate of 1.15%. Due to the short term nature of the Credit Facility, face value approximates fair value at June 30, 2014. For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, the average borrowings under the Credit Facility and the average interest rate were $40,977,901 and 1.17%, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, the Fund’s effective leverage represented 19.9% of the Fund’s Managed Assets.

Under the Credit Facility, the Fund has agreed to certain covenants and additional investment limitations while the leverage is outstanding. The Fund agrees to maintain asset coverage of three times over outstanding borrowings.

The Fund utilizes the Credit Facility to increase its assets available for investment. When the Fund leverages its assets, common shareholders bear the fees associated with the Credit Facility and have the potential to benefit from or be disadvantaged by the use of leverage. The investment advisory fee is also increased in dollar terms from the use of leverage. Consequently, the Fund and the Adviser may have differing interest in determining whether to leverage the Fund’s assets. Leverage creates risks that may adversely affect the return for the holders of common shares, including:

•

the likelihood of greater volatility of net asset value and market price of common shares;

•

fluctuations in the interest rate paid for the use of the credit facility;

•

increased operating costs, which may reduce the Fund’s total return;

•

the potential for a decline in the value of an investment acquired through leverage, while the Fund’s obligations under such leverage remains fixed; and

•

the Fund is more likely to have to sell securities in a volatile market in order to meet asset coverage or other debt compliance requirements.

To the extent the income or capital appreciation derived from securities purchased with funds received from leverage exceeds the cost of leverage, the Fund’s return will be greater than if leverage had not been used; conversely, returns would be lower if the cost of the leverage exceeds the income or capital appreciation derived.

In addition to the risks created by the Fund’s use of leverage, the Fund is subject to the risk that it would be unable to timely, or at all, obtain replacement financing if the Credit Facility is terminated. Were this to happen, the Fund would be required to de-leverage, selling securities at a potentially inopportune time and incurring tax consequences. Further, the Fund’s ability to generate income from the use of leverage would be adversely affected.

5. MANAGEMENT FEES, ADMINISTRATIVE FEES AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

The Adviser administers the business and affairs of the Fund. The Adviser also selects (subject to Board approval), contracts with and compensates the Sub-adviser to manage the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund. The Adviser does not itself manage the Fund’s portfolio of assets but has ultimate responsibility to oversee the Sub-adviser. In this connection, the Adviser oversees the Sub-adviser’s management of the Fund’s investment operations in accordance with the investment objectives and related policies of the Fund, reviews the Sub-adviser’s performance and reports periodically on such performance to the Board.

The Fund pays the Adviser as compensation under an advisory agreement an annual fee in the amount of 1.05% of the average daily Managed Assets.

The Fund has retained Four Wood Capital Partners LLC (“FWCP”), an affiliate of the Adviser, to provide investor support services in connection with the on-going operation of the Fund. Such services include providing ongoing contact with respect to the Fund and its performance with financial advisors that are representatives of broker-dealers and other financial intermediaries and communicating with the NYSE specialist for the Fund’s common shares, and with the closed-end analyst community regarding the Fund on a regular basis. The Fund pays FWCP as compensation under an investor support services agreement an annual fee in the amount of 0.05% of the average daily Managed Assets of the Fund. FWCP may separately contract with and coordinate the activities of a third party to provide certain of the above described services.

The Bank of New York Mellon, the Fund’s administrator, accounting agent and custodian, holds the Fund’s assets, will settle all portfolio trades and will be responsible for calculating the Fund’s net asset value and maintaining the accounting records of the Fund.

American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, LLC is the Fund’s transfer agent, registrar, dividend disbursing agent and shareholder servicing agent, as well as the agent for the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan.

Foreside Compliance Services, LLC provides a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund.

The Fund pays every independent trustee a fee of $15,000 per annum, plus $3,000 per in person meeting fee for serving as a trustee of the Fund.

6. PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term securities, were $114,662,432 and $119,878,081 respectively.

7. CAPITAL

The following is a summary of share transactions for the six month period ended June 30, 2014:

	Shares of common stock, beginning of period					7,814,714
	Increase in shares of common stock outstanding from new share issuance ($0.001 par value)					—
	Shares of common stock, end of period					7,814,714

8. INCOME TAX INFORMATION

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed to not meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of June 30, 2014, the Advisor has reviewed all open tax years and

THL Credit Senior Loan Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)

June 30, 2014

8. INCOME TAX INFORMATION (continued)

concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. Tax years ended December 31, 2013 will remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities. On an ongoing basis, the Advisor will monitor it’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

The Fund distinguishes between dividends on a tax basis and on a financial reporting basis and only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits are reported in the financial statements as a tax return of capital. Differences in the recognition or classification of income between the financial statements and tax earnings and profits which result in temporary over-distributions for financial statement purposes are classified as distributions in excess of net investment income or accumulated net realized losses in the components of net assets on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The amounts and characteristics of tax basis distributions and composition of distributable earnings/ (accumulated losses) are finalized at fiscal year end; accordingly, tax basis balances have not been determined as of June 30, 2014.

As determined at December 31, 2013, certain permanent differences between financial and tax accounting were reclassified. These differences were primarily due to the differing tax treatment of certain investments. The amounts reclassified did not affect net assets. The reclassifications decreased accumulated net realized gain on investments by $2,425 and increased accumulated net investment income by $2,425.

The tax character of distributions paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 was $1,765,654 of ordinary income.

At December 31, 2013, the Fund had no capital loss carryforwards which will reduce the Fund’s taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the code and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income tax.

At December 31, 2013, the tax components of net assets was as follows:

	Undistributed Net Investment Income			Accumulated Capital and Other Gains			Net Unrealized Appreciation
	$646,527			$390,267			$1,608,425

The cost basis of portfolio securities for federal income tax purposes is $191,219,821. Gross unrealized appreciation is $2,186,936; gross unrealized depreciation is $166,767 and net unrealized appreciation is $2,020,169. There is no difference between book and tax cost basis.

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In preparing these financial statements, the Fund’s management has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued.

On July 31, 2014, the Fund paid a regularly scheduled distribution in the amount of $0.119 per share to shareholders of record as of July 21, 2014.

The Fund declared a regularly scheduled distribution in the amount of $0.119 per share payable on August 29, 2014 to shareholders of record as of August 19, 2014.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

The Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“Plan”) for THL Credit Senior Loan Fund (“Fund”), provides that a holder of the Fund’s common shares of beneficial interest (each, a “Common Share” and, collectively “Common Shares”) will be automatically enrolled in the Plan (each, a “Participant” and collectively, “Participants”). All dividends and distributions on such Shareholder’s Common Shares will be reinvested by American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, LLC (“Plan Administrator”), as agent for Shareholders in administering the Plan, in additional Common Shares. Participation in the Plan may be terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by notice if received and processed by the Plan Administrator prior to the dividend record rate; otherwise such termination or resumption will be effective with respect to any subsequently declared dividend or other distribution. Some brokers may automatically elect to receive cash on your behalf and may re-invest that cash in additional Common Shares for you. If you wish for all dividends declared on your Common Shares to be paid in cash, please contact your broker.

Plan Details

1.

The Plan Administrator will open an account for each holder of Common Shares under the Plan in the same name in which such holder of Common Shares is registered. Whenever the Fund declares a dividend or other distribution (together, a “Dividend”) payable in cash, non-participants in the Plan will receive cash and participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in Common Shares. The Common Shares will be acquired by the Plan Administrator for the participants' accounts, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i) through receipt of additional unissued but authorized Common Shares from the Fund (“Newly Issued Common Shares”) or (ii) by purchase of outstanding Common Shares on the open market (“Open-Market Purchases”) on the New York Stock Exchange or elsewhere.

2.

If, on the payment date for any Dividend, the closing market price plus estimated per share fees (which include any brokerage commissions the Plan Administrator is required to pay) is equal to or greater than the net asset value (“NAV”) per Common Share, the Plan Administrator will invest the Dividend amount in Newly Issued Common Shares on behalf of the participants. The number of Newly Issued Common Shares to be credited to each participant’s account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the Dividend by the NAV per Common Share on the payment date; provided that, if the NAV is less than or equal to 95% of the closing market value on the payment date, the dollar amount of the Dividend will be divided by 95% of the closing market price per Common Share on the payment date. If, on the payment date for any Dividend, the NAV per Common Share is greater than the closing market value plus per share fees, the Plan Administrator will invest the Dividend amount in Common Shares acquired on behalf of the participants in Open-Market Purchases. In the event of a market discount on the payment date for any Dividend, the Plan Administrator will have until the last business day before the next date on which the Common Shares trade on an “ex-dividend” basis or 30 days after the payment date for such Dividend, whichever is sooner (the “Last Purchase Date”), to invest the Dividend amount in Common Shares acquired in Open-Market Purchases. It is contemplated that the Fund will pay monthly income Dividends. Therefore, the period during which Open-Market Purchases can be made will exist only from the payment date of each Dividend through the date before the next “ex-dividend” date which typically will be approximately ten days. If, before the Plan Administrator has completed its Open-Market Purchases, the market price per Common Share exceeds the NAV per Common Share, the average per Common Share purchase price paid by the Plan Administrator may exceed the NAV of the Common Shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer Common Shares than if the Dividend had been paid in Newly Issued Common Shares on the Dividend payment date. Because of the foregoing difficulty with respect to Open-Market Purchases, the Plan provides that if the Plan Administrator is unable to invest the full Dividend amount in Open-Market Purchases during the purchase period or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Plan Administrator may cease making Open-Market Purchases and may invest the uninvested portion of the Dividend amount in Newly

THL Credit Senior Loan Fund

Supplemental Information (unaudited) (continued)

June 30, 2014

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (continued)

Issued Common Shares at the NAV per Common Share at the close of business on the Last Purchase Date provided that, if the NAV is less than or equal to 95% of the then current market price per Common Share; the dollar amount of the Dividend will be divided by 95% of the market price on the payment date.

3.

The Plan Administrator maintains all shareholders' accounts in the Plan and furnishes written confirmation of all transactions in the accounts, including information needed by shareholders for tax records. Common Shares in the account of each Plan participant will be held by the Plan Administrator on behalf of the Plan participant, and each shareholder proxy will include those shares purchased or received pursuant to the Plan. The Plan Administrator will forward all proxy solicitation materials to participants and vote proxies for shares held under the Plan in accordance with the instructions of the participants.

4.

In the case of shareholders such as banks, brokers or nominees which hold shares for others who are the beneficial owners, the Plan Administrator will administer the Plan on the basis of the number of Common Shares certified from time to time by the record shareholder’s name and held for the account of beneficial owners who participate in the Plan.

5.

There will be no charges with respect to Common Shares issued directly by the Fund. However, each participant will pay a per share fee incurred in connection with Open-Market Purchases. The automatic reinvestment of Dividends will not relieve participants of any Federal, state or local income tax that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on such dividends. Participants that request a sale of shares through the Plan Administrator are subject to a $15.00 sales fee and a $0.10 per Common Share sold. All per share fees include any applicable brokerage commissions the Plan Administrator is required to pay.

6.

The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants with regard to purchases in the Plan; however, the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants.

7.

All correspondence or questions concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Administrator, American Stock Transfer and Trust Company LLC, by telephone, 1-888-486-2770, through the Internet at www.amstock.com or in writing to American Stock Transfer and Trust Company LLC, P.O.
