PART I

In this annual report on Form 10-K, except where the context suggests otherwise, the terms we, us,
our and THL Credit refer to THL Credit, Inc.; THL Credit Advisors, the Advisor or the Administrator refers to THL Credit Advisors LLC; Greenway refers to THL Credit Greenway
Fund LLC; THL Credit Opportunities refers to THL Credit Opportunities, L.P.; BDC Holdings refers to THL Credit Partners BDC Holdings, L.P.; and THL Credit Group refers to THL Credit Group, L.P. Some of the
statements in this annual report constitute forward-looking statements, which relate to future events, future performance or financial condition. These forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties and actual results could differ
materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements for any reason, including those factors discussed in Risk Factors and elsewhere in this report.



|Item 1. | Business
|------- | --------

THL Credit, Inc.

We are an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company incorporated in Delaware on
May 26, 2009, that has elected to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. In addition, we have elected to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated
investment company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. Our investment activities are managed by THL Credit Advisors and supervised by our board of directors, a majority of whom are independent
of THL Credit Advisors and its affiliates. As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. See Regulation for discussion of BDC regulation and other regulatory considerations. We are also registered as an
investment adviser under the Advisers Act.

Our investment objective is to generate both current income and capital
appreciation, primarily through investments in privately negotiated debt and equity securities of middle market companies. We are a direct lender to middle market companies and invest in subordinated, or mezzanine, debt and second lien secured debt,
which may include an associated equity component such as warrants, preferred stock or other similar securities. We may also selectively invest in first lien secured loans that generally have structures with higher interest rates, which include
unitranche investments, or loan structures that combine characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured as well as second lien and subordinated loans. In certain instances we will also make direct equity investments, including equity
investments into or through funds, and we may also selectively invest in more broadly syndicated first lien secured loans from time to time. We also may provide advisory services to managed funds.

We define middle market companies to mean both public and privately-held companies with annual revenues of between $25 million and $500
million. We expect to generate returns through a combination of contractual interest payments on debt investments, equity appreciation (through options, warrants, conversion rights or direct equity investments) and origination and similar fees. We
can offer no assurances that we will achieve our investment objective.

Since April 2010, after we completed our initial
public offering and commenced principal operations, we have been responsible for making, on behalf of ourselves and our managed funds, over an aggregate $664 million in commitments into 40 separate portfolio companies through a combination of both
initial and follow-on investments.

As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. See
Regulation for discussion of BDC regulation and other regulatory considerations. We are generally required to invest at least 70% of our total assets primarily in securities of private and certain U.S. public companies (other than
certain financial institutions), cash, cash equivalents and U.S. government securities and other high quality debt investments that mature in one year or less.

##### Table of Contents

We are permitted to borrow money from time to time within the levels permitted by the 1940
Act (which generally allows us to incur leverage for up to one half of our assets). We have used, and expect to continue to use, our credit facilities, along with proceeds from the rotation of our portfolio and proceeds from public and private
offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives. See Regulation for discussion of BDC regulation and other regulatory considerations.

Investment Approach

Our investment approach consists of the following four separate and distinct phases: (1) sourcing; (2) selecting;
(3) structuring; and (4) supervising investments. Sourcing involves our efforts to generate as vast a universe of relevant and actionable investment opportunities as possible. Selecting represents our decision-making process regarding
which of those investments to pursue. Structuring summarizes our creative approach to deploying capital on a case by case basis in a way that maximizes value. Supervising is a reference to our ongoing rigorous credit monitoring.

Sourcing

The elements
of our sourcing efforts include: (i) determining the market in which we intend to participate; (ii) identifying the opportunities within that market; (iii) having a clear strategy; (iv) knowing the competition; and
(v) distinguishing our competitive advantages.

Determining the Market

We invest primarily in debt securities of sponsored and unsponsored issuers, including subordinated or mezzanine debt and second lien
secured debt, which may include an associated equity component such as warrants, preferred stock and other similar securities. We may also selectively invest in first lien secured loans that generally have structures with higher interest rates,
which include unitranche investments, or loan structures that combine characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured as well as second lien and subordinated loans. In certain instances we will also make direct equity investments, including
equity investments into or through funds, and we may also selectively invest in more broadly syndicated first lien secured loans from time to time. We also may provide advisory services to managed funds.

##### Table of Contents

It is also our belief that a combination of sponsored and unsponsored investments in debt
securities is important to having the most attractive opportunities across investment cycles. To that end, our nationwide origination efforts target both private equity sponsors and referral sources of unsponsored companies.

Unsponsored companies are either privately-held companies typically owned and controlled by entrepreneurs rather than private equity
firms or microcap public companies, or those public companies with market capitalization of less than $300 million. We believe that unsponsored middle market companies represent a large, attractive and less competitive investment opportunity for two
primary reasons: (1) the number of unsponsored companies far exceeds the number of sponsored companies; and (2) many debt investors focus primarily on sponsored companies. We also believe because unsponsored companies often have less
access to capital providers, they generally provide us more attractive economics, greater alignment of interests with management, and greater control over the business and capital structure.

With respect to sponsored transactions, which we define as those companies controlled by private equity firms, or sponsors, we expect the
demand for leveraged buyouts to grow as mergers and acquisition activity increases, although with reduced senior lending from banks and what may be reduced participation from collateralized loan obligation vehicles in the middle market. We believe
debt providers will see increasing opportunities to fill this financing gap. We expect significant demand from sponsors who need to recapitalize the balance sheets of certain of their portfolio companies or, in certain situations, acquire portfolio
companies.

Market opportunity

We believe the environment for investing in middle market companies is attractive for several reasons, including:

Improved company fundamentals creating favorable lending trends. Middle market companies are experiencing improved fundamentals driven by a stabilizing economy and an increase in confidence. During
2012, middle market companies displayed improvements in operating performance, resulting in stronger credit quality. Default levels remain relatively low, and volatility in the broader capital markets has eased, resulting in more middle market
companies seeking growth capital at attractive lender credit metrics.

Consolidation among commercial banks has reduced the
focus on middle market business.We believe that many senior lenders have de-emphasized their service and product offerings to middle market companies in favor of lending to large corporate clients, managing capital markets transactions and
providing other non-credit services to their customers. Further, many financial institutions and traditional lenders are faced with constrained balance sheets and are requiring existing issuers to reduce leverage.

Middle market companies are increasingly seeking lenders with long-term capital for debt and equity capital. We believe that
many middle market companies prefer to execute transactions with private capital providers such as us, rather than execute high-yield bond or equity transactions in the public markets, which may necessitate increased financial and regulatory
compliance and reporting obligations. Further, we believe many middle market companies are inclined to seek capital from a small number of skilled, reliable and predictable providers with access to permanent capital that can satisfy their specific
needs and serve as value-added financial partners with an understanding of, and longer-term view oriented towards the growth of their businesses.

The current market environment may mean more favorable opportunities for investing in lower middle market companies. We believe that as part of the path of economic recovery following the credit
crisis, select market participants such as hedge funds and collateralized loan obligation vehicles are not as active as lenders in the middle market, a space in which we focus, resulting in fewer lender participants and a greater opportunity for us
to originate proprietary investment opportunities in the lower middle market. Fewer participants also results in a more disciplined approach to investment opportunities, a situation on which we are well positioned to capitalize given the extensive
level of experience of the THL Credit Investment Principals, who have worked closely together and have invested through multiple business and credit cycles. In addition, investing in debt securities in

##### Table of Contents

the middle market may offer more favorable returns relative to their investment risk, when compared to investments in public high yield or syndicated bank loan securities. For example, such
securities generally involve better pricing terms, access to information, and the ability to diligence and evaluate management teams.

Investment strategy

We
believe a strategy focused primarily on debt securities in middle market companies has a number of compelling attributes. First, the market for these instruments is relatively inefficient, allowing an experienced investor an opportunity to produce
high risk-adjusted returns. Second, downside risk can be managed through an extensive credit-oriented underwriting process, creative structuring techniques and intensive portfolio monitoring. We believe private debt investments generally require the
highest level of credit and legal due diligence among debt or credit asset classes. Lastly, compared with equity investments, returns on debt loans tend to be less volatile given the substantial current return component and seniority in the capital
structure relative to equity.

Competition

Our primary competitors to providing financing to middle market companies will include other BDCs, public and private funds, commercial and investment banks, CLO funds, commercial finance companies and,
to the extent they provide an alternative form of financing, private equity and hedge funds. Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial and marketing resources than we do. For example, some competitors
may have access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments and establish more
relationships than us.

Competitive advantages

We believe that, through THL Credit Advisors, we possess the following competitive advantages over many other debt lenders to middle market companies:

Experienced management team.As stated above, the THL Credit Investment Principals are experienced and have worked together
extensively through multiple business and credit cycles, investing across the entire capital structure with the objective of generating attractive, long-term, risk-adjusted returns. Each of the THL Credit Investment Principals brings a unique
investment perspective and skill-set by virtue of their complementary collective experiences as both debt and equity investors.

Proactive Sourcing Platform.We take a proactive, hands-on, and creative approach to investment sourcing. Our disciplined
origination process includes proprietary tools and resources and employs a national platform with a regional focus. With offices in Boston, Houston and Los Angeles, the THL Credit Investment Principals have a deep and diverse relationship network in
the debt capital and private equity markets. National origination activities and relationships are centrally managed by a dedicated director of origination. These activities and relationships provide an important channel through which we generate
investment opportunities consistent with our investment strategy. The THL Credit Investment Principals have activities and relationships with investment bankers, commercial bankers (national, regional and local), lawyers, accountants and business
brokers as well as access to the extensive network of THL Partners, which has 38 years of experience. The THL Credit Investment Principals actively utilize these activities, relationships and networks to source and execute attractive investments,
and maintain a database and set of reports where the details of all potential investment opportunities are tracked. Further, we believe the investment history and long-standing reputation of the THL Credit Investment Principals provides us with an
early look at new investment opportunities.

Ability to execute unsponsored transactions.We believe we are one of the
few credit market participants that actively seeks unsponsored investments and possesses the experience and resources, as a result of the long-standing relationships of the THL Credit Investment Principals and ongoing development of new
relationships

with referral sources and equity sponsors, to source unsponsored transactions. Furthermore, we have the capability to perform the rigorous in-house due diligence, structuring and monitoring
activities necessary to execute such transactions.

Affiliation with THL Partners and THL Credit SLS.We are managed by
THL Credit Advisors, the credit affiliate of THL Partners and parent of THL Credit SLS. As such, we have access to the relationship network and industry knowledge of both THL Partners and THL Credit SLS to enhance transaction sourcing capabilities.
This provides us with the opportunity to consult with the THL Partners investment teams on specific industry issues, trends and other complementary matters.

Selecting

Selecting investments to pursue requires us to have an
employable investment philosophy, know our key metrics, have a process to consistently measure those metrics and adhere to a repeatable underwriting process that enables our investment committee to make well reasoned decisions.

Investment Philosophy

Our investment philosophy will focus on capital preservation, relative value, and establishing close relationships with portfolio companies. It is our expectation that this multifaceted focus should
generate consistent, attractive, risk-adjusted returns coupled with low volatility.

Capital Preservation. We believe
that the key to capital preservation is comprehensive and fundamental credit analysis. We take a long term view of our investments and portfolios with the perspective that most of our investments may need to endure through economic cycles. We
refrain from market timing and generally do not enter into investments with the sole intention of realizing short term gains based on changes in market prices. However, we will not hesitate to sell an investment if we believe that it is
deteriorating in value and that more recovery will be obtained by selling rather than holding the investment.

Relative
Value. Relative value is an essential part of every investment decision. Relative value is determined in a variety of ways including comparisons to other opportunities available in the same asset class and with portfolio companies in the same or
similar industries. Relative value is also analyzed across asset classes (senior vs. subordinate, secured vs. unsecured, debt vs. equity) to ensure that the return of a potential investment is appropriate relative to its position in the capital
structure.

Key Investment Metrics

Our value-oriented investment philosophy is primarily focused on maximizing yield relative to risk. Upon identifying a potential opportunity, THL Credit Advisors performs an initial screen to determine
whether pursuing intensive due diligence is merited. As part of this process, we have identified several criteria we believe are important in evaluating and investing in prospective portfolio companies. These criteria provide general guidelines for
our investment decisions. However, each prospective portfolio company in which we choose to invest may not meet all of these criteria.

Value orientation/positive cash flow. Our investment philosophy places a premium on fundamental credit analysis and has a distinct value orientation. We generally focus on companies in which we can
invest at relatively low multiples of operating cash flow and that are profitable at the time of investment on an operating cash flow basis. Although we obtain liens on collateral when appropriate and available, we are primarily focused on the
predictability of future cash flow. We generally do not intend to invest in start-up companies or companies with speculative business plans.

Seasoned management with significant equity ownership. Strong, committed management teams are important to the success of an investment and we focus on companies where strong management teams are
either

##### Table of Contents

already in place or where new management teams have been identified. Additionally, we will generally require the portfolio companies to have in place compensation provisions that appropriately
incentivize management to succeed and to act in our interests as investors.

Strong competitive position. We will seek
to invest in companies that have developed competitive advantages and defensible market positions within their respective markets and are well positioned to capitalize on growth opportunities.

Exit strategy. We will seek companies that we believe will generate consistent cash flow to repay our loans and reinvest in their
respective businesses. We expect such internally generated cash flow in portfolio companies to be a key means by which we exit from our investments over time. In addition, we will invest in companies whose business models and expected future cash
flows offer attractive exit possibilities for the equity component of our returns. These companies include candidates for strategic acquisition by other industry participants and companies that may repay our investments through an initial public
offering of common stock or another capital market transaction.

Due Diligence and Investment Process

We employ a rigorous and disciplined underwriting and due diligence process. Our process includes a comprehensive understanding of a
portfolio companys industry, market, operational, financial, organizational and legal position and prospects. In addition to our own analysis, we will frequently use the service of third parties (either those of the sponsor, if applicable, or
those which we retain) for quality of earnings reports, environmental diligence, legal reviews, industry and customer surveys, and background checks. We conduct thorough reference and background checks on senior management for all investments,
including, but not limited to reference calls to several constituencies including senior management of past employers, business associates, customers, industry experts, such as equity research analysts and, when appropriate, competitors.

We seek borrowers that have proven management teams that have a vested interest in the company in the form of a meaningful level of
equity ownership, that generate stable and predictable cash flow, and whose market position is defensible. We invest in companies with the expectation that we will own the investment through a complete business cycle, and possibly a recession, and
we determine the appropriate amount of debt for the company accordingly. In addition, we view a sale of the company which might result in a refinancing of our investment as a possibility but not an expectation. Our intention is to craft strong and
lender-friendly credit agreements with covenants, events of default, remedies and inter-creditor agreements being an integral part of our legal documents.

Our due diligence will typically include the following elements (although not all elements will necessarily form part of every due diligence project):

Portfolio Company Characteristics: key levers of the business including a focus on drivers of cash flow and growth; revenue
visibility; customer and supplier concentrations; historical revenue and margin trends; fixed versus variable costs; free cash flow analysis; portfolio company performance in view of industry performance; and sensitivity analysis around various
future performance scenarios (with a focus on downside scenario analysis);

Industry Analysis: including the portfolio
companys position within the context of the general economic environment and relevant industry cycles; industry size and growth rates; competitive landscape; barriers to entry and potential new entrants; product position and defensibility of
market share; technological, regulatory and similar threats; and pricing power and cost considerations;

Management:
including the quality, breadth and depth of the portfolio companys management; track record and prior experience; background checks; reputation; compensation and equity incentives; corporate overhead; motivation; interviews with management,
employees, customers and vendors;

##### Table of Contents

Financial Analysis: an understanding of relevant financial ratios and statistics,
including various leverage, liquidity, free cash flow and fixed charge coverage ratios; impact on ratios in various future performance scenarios and comparison of ratios to industry competitors; satisfaction with the auditor of the financial
statements; quality of earnings analysis;

Capital Structure: diverse considerations regarding leverage (including
understanding seniority and leverage multiples); ability to service debt; collateral and security protections; covenants and guarantees; equity investment amounts and participants (where applicable); review of other significant structural terms and
pertinent legal documentation; and

Collateral and Enterprise Value: analysis of relevant collateral coverage,
including assets on a liquidation basis and enterprise value on a going concern basis; matrix analysis of cash flow and valuation multiples under different scenarios along with recovery estimates; comparison to recent transaction multiples and
valuations.

Investment Committee

The purpose of the investment committee is to evaluate and approve, as deemed appropriate, all investments by THL Credit Advisors. The committee process is intended to bring the diverse experience and
perspectives of the committees members to the analysis and consideration of every investment. The committee also serves to provide investment consistency and adherence to THL Credit Advisors investment philosophies and policies. The
investment committee also determines appropriate investment sizing and suggests ongoing monitoring requirements.

In addition
to reviewing investments, the investment committee meetings serve as a forum to discuss credit views and outlooks. Potential transactions and investment sourcing are also reviewed on a regular basis. Members of our investment team are encouraged to
share information and views on credits with the investment committee early in their analysis. This process improves the quality of the analysis and assists the deal team members to work more efficiently.

Each transaction is presented to the investment committee in a formal written report. Our investment committee currently consists of
James K. Hunt, W. Hunter Stropp, Sam W. Tillinghast and Christopher J. Flynn. To approve a new investment, or to exit or sell an existing investment, the consent of a majority of the four members of the committee is required, with Mr. Hunt, the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer, having veto power.

Structuring

Our approach to structuring involves us choosing the most appropriate variety of security for each particular investment and negotiating
the best and most favorable terms.

Investment Structure

We invest primarily in debt securities, including subordinated, or mezzanine debt, and second lien senior secured debt, which may include
an associated equity component such as warrants, preferred stock or other similar securities. We may also selectively invest in first lien secured loans that generally have structures with higher interest rates, which include unitranche investments,
or loan structures that combine characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured as well as second lien and subordinated loans. In certain instances we will also make direct equity investments, including equity investments into or through
funds, and we may also selectively invest in more broadly syndicated first lien secured loans from time to time.

We generally
do not intend to invest in start-up companies, operationally distressed situations or companies with speculative business plans. In addition, we may invest up to 30% of our portfolio in opportunistic



10



---

##### Table of Contents

investments which will be intended to diversify or complement the remainder of our portfolio and to enhance our returns to stockholders. These investments may include high-yield bonds, private
equity investments, securities of public companies that are broadly traded and securities of non-U.S. companies. We expect that these public companies generally will have debt securities that are non-investment grade.

Once we have determined that a prospective portfolio company is suitable for investment, we work with the management of that company and
its other capital providers, including, as applicable, senior, junior, and equity capital providers, to structure an investment, typically investing an average of approximately $10 million to $25 million of capital per transaction. We negotiate
among these parties to agree on how our investment is expected to perform relative to the other capital in the portfolio companys capital structure.

Security types we invest in include:

Mezzanine Loans.We structure our
subordinated, or mezzanine investments, primarily as unsecured, subordinated loans that provide for relatively high, fixed interest rates that will provide us with current interest income. Generally, mezzanine loans rank subordinate in priority of
payment to senior debt, such as senior bank debt, and are often unsecured. However, mezzanine loans rank senior to common and preferred equity in a borrowers capital structure. Mezzanine loans typically have interest-only payments in the early
years, with amortization of principal deferred to the later years and may include an associated equity component such as warrants, preferred stock or other similar securities. The warrants associated with mezzanine loans are typically detachable,
which allows lenders to receive repayment of their principal on an agreed amortization schedule while retaining their equity interest in the borrower. Also, in some cases our mezzanine loans will be collateralized by a subordinated lien on some or
all of the assets of the borrower. Typically, our mezzanine loans will have maturities of five to ten years. In determining whether a prospective mezzanine loan investment satisfies our investment criteria, we generally seek a high total return
potential, although there can be no assurance we will find investments satisfying that criterion or that any such investments will perform in accordance with expectations.

Second Lien Loans. We structure our second lien investments as junior, secured loans. We obtain security interests in the assets of the portfolio company that serve as collateral in support of the
repayment of such loans. This collateral may take the form of second priority liens on the assets of a portfolio company. Second lien loans may provide for moderate loan amortization in the initial years of the facility, with the majority of the
amortization deferred until loan maturity, although there can be no assurance we will find investments providing for such amortization.

First Lien Senior Secured Loans.To the extent we invest in first lien or senior secured loans, we expect such loans to have terms of three to ten years and may provide for deferred interest
payments in the first few years of the term of the loan. To the extent we invest in senior secured loans, we obtain first lien security interests in the assets of these portfolio companies that serve as collateral in support of the repayment of
these loans. First lien secured loans may also include unitranche loan structures, which typically combine characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured and second lien and subordinated loans. We may obtain security interests in the asset
of the portfolio company that serve as collateral in support of the repayment of these loans. This collateral may take the form of first-priority liens on the assets of the portfolio company and may provide for moderate loan amortization in the
initial years of the facility, with the majority of the amortization deferred until loan maturity, although there can be no assurance we will find investments providing for such amortization. Unitranche loans generally allow the borrower to make a
large lump sum payment of principal at the end of the loan term, and there is a risk of loss if the borrower is unable to pay the lump sum or refinance the amount owed at maturity.

Investment Terms

We tailor the terms of each investment to the
facts and circumstances of the transaction and the prospective portfolio company, negotiating a structure that protects our rights and manages our risk while creating incentives



11

##### Table of Contents

for the portfolio company to achieve its business plan and improve its profitability. We seek to limit the downside potential of our investments by:



| |  |  | requiring a total return on our investments (including both interest and potential equity appreciation) that compensates us for credit risk; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | negotiating covenants in connection with our investments that afford our portfolio companies as much flexibility in managing their businesses as
possible, consistent with preservation of our capital. Such restrictions may include affirmative and negative covenants, default penalties, lien protection, change of control provisions and board rights, including either observation or rights to a
seat on the board under some circumstances or participation rights.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our investments may include equity
features, such as warrants or options to buy a minority interest in the portfolio company. Any warrants we receive with our debt securities generally require only a nominal cost to exercise, and thus, as a portfolio company appreciates in value, we
may achieve additional investment return from this equity interest. We may structure the warrants to provide provisions protecting our rights as a minority-interest holder, as well as puts, or rights to sell such securities back to the company, upon
the occurrence of specified events. In many cases, we also obtain registration rights in connection with these equity interests, which may include demand and piggyback registration rights.

Supervising

Successful
supervision of our investments involves employing active monitoring methods and developing strong underlying management teams at each portfolio company.

Monitoring

We view active portfolio monitoring as a vital part of our
investment process. We consider board observation rights, regular dialogue with company management and sponsors, and detailed internally generated monitoring reports to be critical to our performance. We have developed a monitoring template that
promotes compliance with these standards and that is used as a tool by the Advisors investment committee to assess investment performance relative to plan. In addition, our portfolio companies may rely on us to provide financial and capital
market expertise and may view us as a value-added resource.

As part of the monitoring process, the Advisor assesses the risk
profile of each of our investments and assigns each investment a score of a 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Effective March 31, 2012, the Advisor revised its scoring system in order to categorize, on a more granular level, each investment based upon its
performance and may revise the scoring system in the future depending upon the nature of the portfolio. The changes from December 31, 2011, included moving investments with a previous score of a 2 to a new investment performance score of 3 and
bifurcating a previous score of 1 between new investment performance scores of 1 and 2 based upon its performance. Overall, there was no significant change in the risk profile of the portfolio companies between December 31, 2011 and
December 31, 2012 or between March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2012.

The revised investment performance scores,
or IPS, are as follows:

1  The portfolio company is performing above our underwriting expectations.

2  The portfolio company is performing as expected at the time of underwriting. All new investments are initially scored a 2.

3  The portfolio company is operating below our underwriting expectations, and requires closer monitoring. The
company may be out of compliance with financial covenants, however, principal or interest payments are generally not past due.



12

##### Table of Contents

4  The portfolio company is performing materially below our underwriting expectations
and returns on our investment are likely to be impaired. Principal or interest payments may be past due, however, full recovery of principal is expected.

5  The portfolio company is performing substantially below expectations and the risk of the investment has increased substantially. The company is in payment default and the principal amount is
not expected to be repaid in full.

For any investment receiving a score of a 3 or lower, our manager increases its level of
focus and prepares regular updates for the investment committee summarizing current operating results, material impending events and recommended actions.

The Advisor monitors and, when appropriate, changes the investment scores assigned to each investment in our portfolio. In connection with our investment valuation process, the Advisor and board of
directors review these investment scores on a quarterly basis. Our average investment score was 2.12 at December 31, 2012. The following is a distribution of the investment scores of our portfolio companies at December 31, 2012:

THL Credit Advisors services under the investment management agreement are not exclusive, and it is free to furnish similar
services to other entities so long as its services to us are not impaired.

Pursuant to our investment management agreement,
we pay THL Credit Advisors a fee for investment advisory and management services consisting of a base management fee and a two-part incentive fee.

Management Fee. The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.5% of our gross assets payable quarterly in arrears on a calendar quarter basis. For purposes of calculating the base
management fee, gross assets is determined without deduction for any liabilities. For the first quarter of our operations, the base management fee was calculated based on the initial value of our gross assets. Beginning with our second
quarter of operations, the base management fee was calculated based on the value of our gross assets at the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current
calendar quarter. Base management fees for any partial quarter are appropriately prorated. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, THL Credit Advisors earned base management fees of $4.9 million, $4.0 million and $2.7 million,
respectively, from us.

Incentive Fee. The incentive fee has two components, ordinary income and capital gains,
calculated as follows:

The ordinary income component is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our preincentive
fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to a total return requirement and deferral of non-cash amounts, and will be 20.0% of the amount, if any, by which our preincentive fee net investment income, expressed
as a rate of return on the value of our net assets attributable to our common stock, for the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeds a 2.0% (which is 8.0% annualized) hurdle rate and a catch-up provision measured as of the end of
each calendar quarter. Under this provision, in any calendar quarter, our investment adviser receives no incentive fee until our preincentive fee net investment income equals the hurdle rate of 2.0%, but then receives, as a catch-up,
100% of our preincentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such preincentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5%. The effect of the catch-up provision is that,
subject to the total return and deferral provisions discussed below, if preincentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.5% in any calendar quarter, our investment adviser receives 20.0% of our preincentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle
rate did not apply. For this purpose, preincentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence, managerial assistance and
consulting fees or other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the administration agreement (as
defined below), and any interest expense and any dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee and any offering expenses and other expenses not charged to operations but excluding certain reversals to
the extent such reversals have the effect of reducing previously accrued incentive fees based on the deferral of non-cash interest). Preincentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such
as original issue discount, debt instruments with PIK interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in cash. The foregoing incentive fee is subject to a total return requirement, which provides that no incentive
fee in respect of the Companys preincentive fee net investment income will be payable except to the extent 20.0% of



14

##### Table of Contents

the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations over the then current and 11 preceding quarters exceeds the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid for the 11 preceding
quarters. In other words, any ordinary income incentive fee that is payable in a calendar quarter will be limited to the lesser of (i) 20% of the amount by which our preincentive fee net investment income for such calendar quarter exceeds the
2.0% hurdle, subject to the catch-up provision, and (ii) (x) 20% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the then current and 11 preceding calendar quarters minus (y) the
cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid for the 11 preceding calendar quarters. For the foregoing purpose, the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations is the amount, if positive, of the sum of preincentive
fee net investment income, base management fees, realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of the Company for the then current and 11 preceding calendar quarters. In addition, the portion of such incentive fee that is
attributable to deferred interest (such as PIK interest or OID) will be paid to THL Credit Advisors, together with interest thereon from the date of deferral to the date of payment, only if and to the extent we actually receive such interest in
cash, and any accrual thereof will be reversed if and to the extent such interest is reversed in connection with any write-off or similar treatment of the investment giving rise to any deferred interest accrual. Any reversal of such accounts would
reduce net income for the quarter by the net amount of the reversal (after taking into account the reversal of incentive fees payable) and would result in a reduction and possibly elimination of the incentive fees for such quarter. There is no
accumulation of amounts on the hurdle rate from quarter to quarter and accordingly there is no clawback of amounts previously paid if subsequent quarters are below the quarterly hurdle and there is no delay of payment if prior quarters are below the
quarterly hurdle.

Preincentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses
or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that we may pay an incentive fee in a quarter where we incur a loss, subject to the total return requirement and deferral of non-cash
amounts. For example, if we receive preincentive fee net investment income in excess of the quarterly minimum hurdle rate, we will pay the applicable incentive fee even if we have incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized
capital losses. Our net investment income used to calculate this component of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of our gross assets used to calculate the 1.5% base management fee. These calculations will be appropriately prorated for
any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current quarter.

The
following is a graphical representation of the calculation of the income-related portion of the incentive fee:

Incentive Fee Based on Net Investment Income

The capital gains component of the incentive fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year
(or upon termination of the investment management agreement, as of the termination date) and is equal to 20.0% of our cumulative aggregate realized capital gains from inception through the end of that calendar year, computed net of our aggregate
cumulative realized capital losses and our aggregate cumulative unrealized capital depreciation through the end of such year, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains

incentive fees. If such amount is negative, then no capital gains incentive fee will be payable for such year. Additionally, if the investment management agreement is terminated as of a date that
is not a calendar year end, the termination date will be treated as though it were a calendar year end for purposes of calculating and paying the capital gains incentive fee. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, THL Credit
Advisors earned incentive fees of $7.0 million, $4.8 million and $0.0 million, respectively, from us.

Examples of Quarterly Incentive Fee

| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | Base management fee(2) = 0.375%

| |  |  | Pre-incentive fee net investment income (investment income(base management fee + other expenses)) = 0.475%
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pre-incentive net investment income does not exceed hurdle rate, therefore there is no incentive fee.

Alternative 2

Additional
Assumptions



| |  |  | Investment income (including interest, dividends, fees, etc.) = 2.90%
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Preincentive fee net investment income (investment income(base management fee + other expenses)) = 2.125%
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preincentive fee net investment income exceeds hurdle rate, therefore there is an incentive fee.

Incentive fee = (100% × Catch-Up) + (the greater of 0% AND (20.0% × (preincentive fee net
investment income2.5%)))

= (100.0% x (preincentive fee net investment income2.00%)) +0%

= (100.0% x (2.125%2.00%))

Although our preincentive fee net investment income exceeds the hurdle rate of 2.0% (as shown in Alternative

managerial assistance to portfolio companies that request it.

THL Credit Advisors may pay amounts owed by us to third party
providers of goods or services. We will subsequently reimburse THL Credit Advisors for such amounts paid on our behalf.

Limitation of
liability and indemnification

The investment management agreement provides that THL Credit Advisors and its officers,
directors, employees and affiliates are not liable to us or any of our stockholders for any act or omission by it or its employees in the supervision or management of our investment activities or for any loss sustained by us or our stockholders,
except that the foregoing exculpation does not extend to any act or omission constituting willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its obligations under the investment management agreement. The investment management
agreement also provides for indemnification by us of THL Credit Advisors members, directors, officers, employees, agents and control persons for liabilities incurred by it in connection with their services to us, subject to the same
limitations and to certain conditions.

Duration and termination

The investment management agreement was approved by our board of directors on February 27, 2013, as described further below under
BusinessBoard Approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement. Unless terminated earlier as described below, it will remain in effect from year to year if approved annually by our board of directors or by the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities, including, in either case, approval by a majority of our directors who are not interested persons. The investment management agreement will automatically terminate in the event of its
assignment. The investment management agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon not less than 60 days written notice to the other. Any termination by us must be authorized either by our board of directors or by vote of our
stockholders. See Risk FactorsRisks relating to our business. We are dependent upon senior management personnel of our investment adviser for our future success, and if our investment adviser is unable to retain qualified personnel
or if our investment adviser loses any member of its senior management team, our ability to achieve our investment objective could be significantly harmed.

Board Approval of the Investment Advisory Agreement

At a meeting of our
Board of Directors held on February 27, 2013, our board of directors unanimously voted to approve the investment advisory agreement. In reaching a decision to approve the investment advisory agreement, the board of directors reviewed a
significant amount of information and considered, among other things:



| |  |  | the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services to be provided to us by THL Credit Advisors LLC;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the fee structures of comparable externally managed business development companies that engage in similar investing activities;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Based on the information reviewed and the discussions detailed above, the board of directors, including all of the directors who are not interested persons as defined in the 1940 Act,
concluded that the investment advisory fee rates and terms are reasonable in relation to the services provided and approved the investment advisory agreement as being in the best interests of our stockholders.

Administration agreement

We have entered into an administration agreement with THL Credit Advisors, which we refer to as the administration agreement,
under which the Administrator provides administrative services to us. For providing these services, facilities and personnel, we reimburse the Administrator for our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in
performing its obligations under the administration agreement, including rent and our allocable portion of the cost of certain of our officers and their respective staffs.

The Administrator may pay amounts owed by us to third-party providers of goods or services. We will subsequently reimburse the Administrator for such amounts paid on our behalf.

Additionally, at our request, the Administrator provides on our behalf significant managerial assistance to our portfolio companies to
which we are required to provide such assistance.

License agreement

We and THL Credit Advisors have entered into a license agreement with THL Partners under which THL Partners has granted to us and THL
Credit Advisors a non-exclusive, personal, revocable worldwide non-transferable license to use the trade name and service mark THL, which is a proprietary mark of THL Partners, for specified purposes in connection with our respective businesses.
This license agreement is royalty-free, which means we are not charged a fee for our use of the trade name and service mark THL. The license agreement is terminable either in its entirety or with respect to us or THL Credit Advisors by THL Partners
at any time in its sole discretion upon 60 days prior written notice, and is also terminable with respect to either us or THL Credit Advisors by THL Partners in the case of certain events of non-compliance. After the expiration of its first one year
term, the entire license agreement is terminable by either us or THL Credit Advisors at our or its sole discretion upon 60 days prior written notice. Upon termination of the license agreement, we and THL Credit Advisors must cease to use the name
and mark THL, including any use in our respective legal names, filings, listings and other uses that may require us to withdraw or replace our names and marks. Other than with respect to the limited rights contained in the license agreement,
we and THL Credit Advisors have no right to use, or other rights in respect of, the THL name and mark. We are an entity operated independently from THL Partners, and third parties who deal with us have no recourse against THL Partners.

Regulation

Regulated
Investment Company and Business Development Company Regulations

We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the
1940 Act. We have also elected to be treated for tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. The 1940 Act contains prohibitions and restrictions relating to transactions between BDCs and their affiliates (including any investment advisers
or sub-advisers), principal underwriters and affiliates of those affiliates or underwriters and requires that a majority of the directors be persons other than interested persons, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, the 1940 Act provides that we may not change the nature of our business so as
to cease to be, or to withdraw our election as, a BDC unless approved by a majority of our outstanding voting securities as defined in the 1940 Act. A majority of the outstanding voting securities of a company is defined under the 1940
Act as the lesser of: (a) 67% or more of such companys voting securities present at a meeting if more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of such company are present or represented by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the
outstanding voting securities of such company. We do not anticipate any substantial change in the nature of our business.

We
are not generally able to issue and sell our common stock at a price below net asset value per share. We may, however, issue and sell our common stock, or warrants, options or rights to acquire our common stock, at a price below the then-current net
asset value of our common stock if (1) our board of directors determines that such sale is in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders, and (2) our stockholders have approved our policy and practice of making such
sales within the preceding 12 months. In any such case, the price at which our securities are to be issued and sold may not be less than a price which, in the determination of our board of directors, closely approximates the market value of such
securities. At our Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 7, 2012, our stockholders approved a proposal authorizing us to sell up to 25% of our common stock at a price below our then-current net asset value per share, subject to approval by our
board of directors for the offering. The authorization expires on the earlier of June 7, 2013 and the date of our 2013 Annual Meeting of Stock holders, which is expected to be held in June 2013. Our stockholders also approved a proposal to
authorize us to offer and issue debt with warrants or debt convertible into shares of our common stock at an exercise or conversion price that, at the time such warrants or convertible debt are issued, will not be less than the market value per
share but may be below our then-current net asset value per share.

As a BDC, we are required to meet a coverage ratio of the
value of total assets to senior securities, which include all of our borrowings and any preferred stock we may issue in the future, of at least 200%. We may also be prohibited under the 1940 Act from knowingly participating in certain transactions
with our affiliates without the prior approval of our board of directors who are not interested persons and, in some cases, prior approval by the SEC.

In January 2013, legislation was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives intended to revise certain regulations applicable to BDCs. The legislation provides for (i) increasing the amount of
funds BDCs may borrow by reducing asset to debt limitations from 2:1 to 3:2, (ii) permitting BDCs to file registration statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that incorporate information from already-filed reports by
reference, (iii) utilizing other streamlined registration processes afforded to operating companies, and (iv) allowing BDCs to own investment adviser subsidiaries. There are no assurances as to when the legislation will be enacted by
Congress, if at all, or, if enacted, what final form the legislation would take.

We may invest up to 100% of our assets in
securities acquired directly from issuers in privately negotiated transactions. With respect to such securities, we may, for the purpose of public resale, be deemed an underwriter as that term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933, or
the Securities Act. We do not intend to acquire securities issued by any investment company that exceed the limits imposed by the 1940 Act. Under these limits, except for registered money market funds, we generally cannot acquire more than 3% of the
voting stock of any investment company, invest more than 5% of the value of our total assets in the securities of one investment company or invest more than 10% of the value of our total assets in the securities of more than one investment company.
With regard to that portion of our portfolio invested in securities issued by investment companies, it should be noted that such investments might indirectly subject our stockholders to additional expenses as they will indirectly be responsible for
the costs and expenses of such companies. None of our investment policies are fundamental and any may be changed without stockholder approval.

Qualifying assets

Under the 1940 Act, a BDC may not acquire any asset other than assets of the type listed in section 55(a) of the 1940 Act, which are referred to as qualifying assets, unless, at the time the acquisition
is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the companys total assets. The principal categories of qualifying assets relevant to our proposed business are the following:



| |  |  | Securities purchased in transactions not involving any public offering from the issuer of such securities, which issuer (subject to certain limited
exceptions) is an eligible portfolio company, or from any person who is, or has been during the preceding 13 months, an affiliated person of an eligible portfolio company, or from any other person, subject to such rules as may be prescribed by the
SEC. An eligible portfolio company is defined in the 1940 Act as any issuer which:
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | is organized under the laws of, and has its principal place of business in, the United States;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | is not an investment company (other than a small business investment company wholly owned by the BDC) or a company that would be an investment company
but for certain exclusions under the 1940 Act; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | satisfies either of the following:
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | has a market capitalization of less than $250 million or does not have any class of securities listed on a national securities exchange; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | is controlled by a BDC or a group of companies including a BDC, the BDC actually exercises a controlling influence over the management or policies of
the eligible portfolio company, and, as a result thereof, the BDC has an affiliated person who is a director of the eligible portfolio company.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Securities of any eligible portfolio company which we control.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Securities purchased in a private transaction from a U.S. issuer that is not an investment company or from an affiliated person of the issuer, or in
transactions incident thereto, if the issuer is in bankruptcy and subject to reorganization or if the issuer, immediately prior to the purchase of its securities was unable to meet its obligations as they came due without material assistance other
than conventional lending or financing arrangements.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Securities of an eligible portfolio company purchased from any person in a private transaction if there is no ready market for such securities and we
already own 60% of the outstanding equity of the eligible portfolio company.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Securities received in exchange for or distributed on or with respect to securities described above, or pursuant to the exercise of warrants or rights
relating to such securities.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Cash, cash equivalents, U.S. Government securities or high-quality debt securities maturing in one year or less from the time of investment.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Control, as defined by the 1940 Act, is presumed to exist where a BDC beneficially owns more than 25% of
the outstanding voting securities of the portfolio company.

Significant managerial assistance to portfolio companies

A BDC must have been organized and have its principal place of business in the United States and must be operated for
the purpose of making investments in the types of securities described in BusinessRegulationQualifying assets above. However, in order to count portfolio securities as qualifying assets for the purpose of the 70% test, the
BDC must either control the issuer of the securities or must offer to make available to the issuer of the securities (other than small and solvent companies described above) significant managerial assistance. Where the BDC purchases such securities
in conjunction with one or more other persons acting together, the BDC will satisfy this test if one of the other persons in the group makes available such managerial assistance,



23

##### Table of Contents

although this may not be the sole method by which the BDC satisfies the requirement to make available managerial assistance. Making available managerial assistance means, among other things, any
arrangement whereby the BDC, through its directors, officers or employees, offers to provide, and, if accepted, does so provide, significant guidance and counsel concerning the management, operations or business objectives and policies of a
portfolio company.

Temporary investments

Pending investment in other types of qualifying assets, as described above, our investments may consist of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities or high-quality debt securities
maturing in one year or less from the time of investment, which we refer to, collectively, as temporary investments, so that 70% of our assets are qualifying assets. Typically, we invest in highly rated commercial paper, U.S. Government agency
notes, U.S. Treasury bills or in repurchase agreements relating to such securities that are fully collateralized by cash or securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies. A repurchase agreement involves the purchase by an investor, such
as us, of a specified security and the simultaneous agreement by the seller to repurchase it at an agreed-upon future date and at a price which is greater than the purchase price by an amount that reflects an agreed-upon interest rate. Consequently,
repurchase agreements are functionally similar to loans. There is no percentage restriction on the proportion of our assets that may be invested in such repurchase agreements. However, the 1940 Act and certain diversification tests in order to
qualify as a RIC for federal income tax purposes typically require us to limit the amount we invest with any one counterparty. Our investment adviser monitors the creditworthiness of the counterparties with which we enter into repurchase agreement
transactions.

Warrants and Options

Under the 1940 Act, a BDC is subject to restrictions on the amount of warrants, options, restricted stock or rights to purchase shares of capital stock that it may have outstanding at any time. Under the
1940 Act, we may generally only offer warrants provided that (i) the warrants expire by their terms within ten years, (ii) the exercise or conversion price is not less than the current market value at the date of issuance, (iii) our
stockholders authorize the proposal to issue such warrants, and our board of directors approves such issuance on the basis that the issuance is in the best interests of THL Credit and its stockholders and (iv) if the warrants are accompanied by
other securities, the warrants are not separately transferable unless no class of such warrants and the securities accompanying them has been publicly distributed. The 1940 Act also provides that the amount of our voting securities that would result
from the exercise of all outstanding warrants, as well as options and rights, at the time of issuance may not exceed 25% of our outstanding voting securities In particular, the amount of capital stock that would result from the conversion or
exercise of all outstanding warrants, options or rights to purchase capital stock cannot exceed 25% of the BDCs total outstanding shares of capital stock.

Senior securities

We are permitted, under specified conditions, to
issue multiple classes of indebtedness and one class of stock senior to our common stock if our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least equal to 200% immediately after each such issuance. In addition, while any preferred stock or
publicly traded debt securities are outstanding, we must make provisions to prohibit any distribution to our stockholders or the repurchase of such securities or shares unless we meet the applicable asset coverage ratios at the time of the
distribution or repurchase. We may also borrow amounts up to 5% of the value of our total assets for temporary or emergency purposes without regard to asset coverage. For a discussion of the risks associated with leverage, see RisksRisks
related to our operations as a BDC.

No-action relief from registration as a commodity pool operator

We are relying on a no-action letter (the No-Action Letter) issued by the staff of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
(the CFTC) as a basis to avoid registration with the CFTC as a commodity pool operator (CPO). The No-Action Letter allows an entity to engage in CFTC-regulated transactions (commodity interest

transactions) that are bona fide hedging transactions (as that term is defined and interpreted by the CFTC and its staff), but prohibit an entity from entering into commodity
interest transactions if they are non-bona fide hedging transactions, unless immediately after entering such non-bona fide hedging transaction (a) the sum of the amount of initial margin deposits on the entitys existing futures or swaps
positions and option or swaption premiums does not exceed 5% of the market value of the entitys liquidating value, after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such transactions, or (b) the aggregate net
notional value of the entitys commodity interest transactions would not exceed 100% of the market value of the entitys liquidating value, after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such transactions. We are
required to operate pursuant to these trading restrictions if we intend to continue to rely on the No-Action Letter as a basis to avoid CPO registration.

Proxy voting policies and procedures

We have delegated our proxy
voting responsibility to THL Credit Advisors. The Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures of THL Credit Advisors are set forth below. The guidelines are reviewed periodically by THL Credit Advisors and our independent directors, and, accordingly, are
subject to change.

Introduction

THL Credit Advisors is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act. As an investment adviser registered under the Advisers Act, THL Credit Advisors has fiduciary duties to us. As part of
this duty, THL Credit Advisors recognizes that it must vote client securities in a timely manner free of conflicts of interest and in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. THL Credit Advisors Proxy Voting Policies and
Procedures have been formulated to ensure decision-making consistent with these fiduciary duties.

These policies and
procedures for voting proxies for our investment advisory clients are intended to comply with Section 206 of, and Rule 206(4)-6 under, the Advisers Act.

Proxy policies

THL Credit Advisors evaluates routine proxy matters, such
as proxy proposals, amendments or resolutions on a case-by-case basis. Routine matters are typically proposed by management and THL Credit Advisors will normally support such matters so long as they do not measurably change the structure, management
control, or operation of the corporation and are consistent with industry standards as well as the corporate laws of the state of incorporation.

THL Credit Advisors also evaluates non-routine matters on a case-by-case basis. Non-routine proposals concerning social issues are typically proposed by stockholders who believe that the
corporations internally adopted policies are ill-advised or misguided. If THL Credit Advisors has determined that management is generally socially responsible, THL Credit Advisors will generally vote against these types of non-routine
proposals. Non-routine proposals concerning financial or corporate issues are usually offered by management and seek to change a corporations legal, business or financial structure. THL Credit Advisors will generally vote in favor of such
proposals provided the position of current stockholders is preserved or enhanced. Non-routine proposals concerning stockholder rights are made regularly by both management and stockholders. They can be generalized as involving issues that transfer
or realign board or stockholder voting power. THL Credit Advisors typically would oppose any proposal aimed solely at thwarting potential takeovers by requiring, for example, super-majority approval. At the same time, THL Credit Advisors believes
stability and continuity promote profitability. THL Credit Advisors guidelines in this area seek a middle road and individual proposals will be carefully assessed in the context of their particular circumstances.

If a vote may involve a material conflict of interest, prior to approving such vote, THL Credit Advisors must consult with its chief
compliance officer to determine whether the potential conflict is material and if so, the appropriate method to resolve such conflict. If the conflict is determined not to be material, THL Credit Advisors employees shall vote the proxy in
accordance with THL Credit Advisors proxy voting policy.

Code of ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics pursuant to Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act that establishes procedures for personal investments and
restricts certain personal securities transactions. Personnel subject to the code of ethics may invest in securities for their personal investment accounts, including securities that may be purchased or held by us, so long as such investments are
made in accordance with the code of ethics requirements. Our code of ethics is available, free of charge, on our website at www.thlcredit.com. We intend to disclose any amendments to, or waivers from, our code of ethics that are required to be
publicly disclosed pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) and the NASDAQ Global Select Market by filing such amendment or waiver with the Securities and Exchange Commission and by posting it on our website.
You may read and copy the code of ethics at the SECs Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at (202) 551-8090. In addition, the code of ethics
is attached as an exhibit to this Registration Statement on Form N-2 and will be available on the SECs Internet site at http://www.sec.gov. You may also obtain copies of the code of ethics, after paying a duplicating fee, by electronic request
at the following e-mail address: publicinfo@sec.gov, or by writing the SECs Public Reference Section, 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549.

Privacy Principles

We are committed to maintaining the privacy of
stockholders and to safeguarding our non-public personal information. The following information is provided to help you understand what personal information we collect, how we protect that information and why, in certain cases, we may share
information with select other parties.

Generally, we do not receive any nonpublic personal information relating to our
stockholders, although certain nonpublic personal information of our stockholders may become available to us. We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about our stockholders or former stockholders to anyone, except as permitted by law
or as is necessary in order to service stockholder accounts (for example, to a transfer agent or third party administrator).

We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about our stockholders to our investment advisers employees with a legitimate
business need for the information. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards designed to protect the nonpublic personal information of our stockholders.

Compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and The NASDAQ Global Select Market Corporate Governance Regulations

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) imposes a wide variety of regulatory requirements on publicly-held companies and their insiders. Many of these requirements affect us.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act has required us to review our policies and procedures to determine whether we comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder. We will continue to monitor our compliance with all future
regulations that are adopted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and will take actions necessary to ensure that we are in compliance therewith.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, The NASDAQ Global Select Market has adopted various corporate governance
requirements as part of its listing standards. We believe we are in compliance with such corporate governance listing standards. We will continue to monitor our compliance with all future listing standards and will take actions necessary to ensure
that we are in compliance therewith.

Other

We have adopted an investment policy that mirrors the requirements applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act.

We are subject to periodic examination by the SEC for compliance with the Exchange Act and the 1940 Act.

We are required to provide and maintain a bond issued by a reputable fidelity insurance company to protect us against larceny and embezzlement. Furthermore, as a BDC, we are prohibited from protecting any
director or officer against any liability to us or our stockholders arising from willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such persons office.

We and THL Credit Advisors have adopted and implemented written policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent violation of the
federal securities laws, and will review these policies and procedures annually for their adequacy and the effectiveness of their implementation. We and THL Credit Advisors have designated a chief compliance officer to be responsible for
administering the policies and procedures.

You may read and copy any materials we file with the SEC at the SECs Public
Reference Room at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549, on official business days during the hours of 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at (202)551-8090. The
SEC maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. The address of that site is http://www.sec.gov.

Our internet address is www.thlcredit.com. We make available free of charge on our website our annual report on Form 10-K,
quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the SEC.

Certain U.S Federal Income Tax Considerations

We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, we generally do not have to pay corporate-level federal income taxes on any income that we distribute to our
stockholders from our tax earnings and profits. To maintain our qualification as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements (as described below). In addition, in order maintain RIC tax
treatment, we must distribute to our stockholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of our investment company taxable income, which is generally our net ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of realized net short-term capital gains
over realized net long-term capital losses (the Annual Distribution Requirement).

Taxation as a Regulated Investment Company

If we:



| |  |  | maintain our qualification as a RIC; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------



| |  |  | satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------

then we will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the portion of our income we distribute (or are deemed to distribute) to stockholders. We will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the
regular corporate rates on any income or capital gains not distributed (or deemed distributed) to our stockholders.



27



---

##### Table of Contents

In order to maintain our qualification as a RIC for federal income tax purposes, we must,
among other things:



| |  |  | continue to qualify as a BDC under the 1940 Act at all times during each taxable year;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | derive in each taxable year at least 90% of our gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to certain securities loans, gains from
the sale of stock or other securities, net income from certain qualified publicly traded partnerships, or other income derived with respect to our business of investing in such stock or securities (the 90% Income Test); and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diversify our holdings so that at the end of each quarter of the taxable year:
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | at least 50% of the value of our assets consists of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. Government securities, securities of other RICs, and other securities
if such other securities of any one issuer do not represent more than 5% of the value of our assets or more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of the issuer; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | no more than 25% of the value of our assets is invested in the securities, other than U.S. Government securities or securities of other RICs, of one
issuer, of two or more issuers that are controlled, as determined under applicable Code rules, by us and that are engaged in the same or similar or related trades or businesses or of certain qualified publicly traded partnerships (the
Diversification Tests).
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We will be subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on certain
undistributed income unless we distribute in a timely manner an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of our net ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of our capital gain net income for each calendar year and (3) any
income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years and on which we paid no federal income tax (the Excise Tax Avoidance Requirement). We may choose to retain a portion of our ordinary income and/or capital gain net income in any
year and pay the 4% U.S. federal excise tax on the retained amounts. For federal income tax purposes, we may be required to recognize taxable income in circumstances in which we do not receive a corresponding payment in cash. For example, if we hold
debt obligations that are treated under applicable tax rules as having original issue discount (such as debt instruments with PIK interest or, in certain cases, increasing interest rates or debt instruments that were issued with warrants), we must
include in income each year a portion of the original issue discount that accrues over the life of the obligation, regardless of whether cash representing such income is received by us in the same taxable year. We may also have to include in income
other amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as deferred loan origination fees that are paid after origination of the loan or are paid in non-cash compensation such as warrants or stock. Certain consolidated subsidiaries of the Company
are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. These taxable entities are not consolidated with the Company for income tax purposes and may generate income tax liabilities or assets from temporary differences in the recognition of items for
financial reporting and income tax purposes at the subsidiaries.

Because any original issue discount or other amounts accrued
will be included in our investment company taxable income for the year of the accrual, we may be required to make a distribution to our stockholders in order to satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement, even though we will not have received any
corresponding cash amount. As a result, we may have difficulty meeting the annual distribution requirement necessary to obtain and maintain RIC tax treatment under the Code. We may have to sell some of our investments at times and/or at prices we
would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital or forgo new investment opportunities for this purpose. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and thus become
subject to corporate-level income tax.

We are authorized to borrow funds and to sell assets in order to satisfy distribution
requirements. However, under the 1940 Act, we are not permitted to make distributions to our stockholders while our debt obligations and other senior securities are outstanding unless certain asset coverage tests are met. Moreover, our
ability to dispose of assets to meet our distribution requirements may be limited by (1) the illiquid nature of our portfolio and/or (2) other requirements relating to our status as a RIC, including the Diversification Tests. If we dispose
of assets in order to meet the Annual Distribution Requirement or the Excise Tax Avoidance Requirement, we may make such dispositions at times that, from an investment standpoint, are not advantageous.

##### Table of Contents

Certain of our investment practices may be subject to special and complex federal income tax
provisions that may, among other things, (1) treat dividends that would otherwise qualify for the dividends received deduction or constitute qualified dividend income as ineligible for such treatment, (2) disallow, suspend or otherwise
limit the allowance of certain losses or deductions, (3) convert lower-taxed long-term capital gain into higher-taxed short-term capital gain or ordinary income, (4) convert an ordinary loss or a deduction into a capital loss (the
deductibility of which is more limited), (5) cause us to recognize income or gain without receipt of a corresponding distribution of cash, (6) adversely affect the time as to when a purchase or sale of stock or securities is deemed to
occur, (7) adversely alter the characterization of certain complex financial transactions and (8) produce income that will not be qualifying income for purposes of the 90% Income Test. We will monitor our transactions and may make certain
tax elections to mitigate the potential adverse effect of these provisions, but there can be no assurance that any adverse effects of these provisions will be mitigated.

If we purchase shares in a passive foreign investment company (a PFIC), we may be subject to federal income tax on its allocable share of a portion of any excess
distribution received on, or any gain from the disposition of, such shares even if our allocable share of such income is distributed as a taxable dividend to its stockholders. Additional charges in the nature of interest generally will be
imposed on us in respect of deferred taxes arising from any such excess distribution or gain. If we invest in a PFIC and elect to treat the PFIC as a qualified electing fund under the Code (a QEF), in lieu of the foregoing
requirements, we will be required to include in income each year our proportionate share of the ordinary earnings and net capital gain of the QEF, even if such income is not distributed by the QEF. Alternatively, we may be able to elect to
mark-to-market at the end of each taxable year our shares in a PFIC; in this case, we will recognize as ordinary income our allocable share of any increase in the value of such shares, and as ordinary loss our allocable share of any decrease in such
value to the extent that any such decrease does not exceed prior increases included in its income. Under either election, we may be required to recognize in a year income in excess of distributions from PFICs and proceeds from dispositions of PFIC
stock during that year, and such income will nevertheless be subject to the Annual Distribution Requirement and will be taken into account for purposes of the 4% excise tax.

The remainder of this discussion assumes that we obtain and maintain our qualification as a RIC and have satisfied the Annual Distribution Requirement.

|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

Before
you invest in our securities, you should be aware of various risks, including those described below. You should carefully consider these risk factors, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus, before you decide whether
to make an investment in our securities. The risks set out below are not the only risks we face, but they are the principal risks associated with an investment in the Company. If any of the following events occur, our business, financial condition
and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In such case, our net asset value and the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

We are a new company with a limited operating history.

We were incorporated in May 2009, completed an initial public offering of our common stock in April 2010 and have a limited operating history. We are subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties
associated with any new business, including the risk that we will not achieve our investment objective and that the value of our common stock could decline substantially.

Our investment adviser and the members of its investment committee have limited experience managing a BDC.

The 1940 Act imposes numerous constraints on the operations of BDCs and RICs. For example, under the 1940 Act, BDCs companies are required to invest at least 70% of their total assets primarily in
securities of private or thinly traded U.S. public companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and other high quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. Moreover, qualification for taxation as a RIC under subchapter
M of the Code requires satisfaction of source-of-income and diversification requirements and our ability to avoid corporate-level income taxes on our income and gains depends on our satisfaction of distribution requirements. The failure to comply
with these provisions in a timely manner could prevent us from qualifying as BDC or RIC or could force us to pay unexpected taxes and penalties, which could be material. Our investment adviser and the majority of the members of our senior management
only have limited experience managing or providing management consulting services to a BDC. Our investment advisers and the members of its investment committees lack of experience in managing a portfolio of assets under such constraints
may hinder their ability to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities and, as a result, achieve our investment objective.

We
may suffer credit losses.

Investment in middle market companies is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk
of credit loss, and therefore our securities may not be suitable for someone with a low tolerance for risk. These risks are likely to increase during an economic recession.

The lack of liquidity in our investments may adversely affect our business.

Our investments generally are made in private companies. Substantially all of these securities are subject to legal and other restrictions
on resale or will be otherwise less liquid than publicly traded securities. The illiquidity of our investments may make it difficult for us to sell such investments if the need arises. In addition, if we are required to liquidate all or a portion of
our portfolio quickly, we may realize significantly less than the value at which we had previously recorded our investments. Further, we may face other restrictions on our ability to liquidate an investment in a portfolio company to the extent that
we or an affiliated manager have material non-public information regarding such portfolio company.

##### Table of Contents

There will be uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments.

A large percentage of our portfolio investments are in the form of securities that are not publicly traded. The fair value of securities
and other investments that are not publicly traded may not be readily determinable. We value these securities on a quarterly basis in accordance with our valuation policy, which is at all times consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting
policies (GAAP). Our board of directors utilizes the services of third-party valuation firms to aid it in determining the fair value of these securities. The board of directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value in good
faith based on the input of our investment adviser and the respective third-party valuation firms. The factors that may be considered in fair value pricing our investments include the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio
companys ability to make payments and its earnings, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flow and other relevant factors. Because such valuations, and particularly
valuations of private securities and private companies, are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates, our determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been
used if a ready market for these securities existed. Our net asset value could be adversely affected if our determinations regarding the fair value of our investments were materially higher than the values that we ultimately realize upon the
disposal of such securities.

If we are unable to manage our investments effectively, we may be unable to achieve our investment objective.

Our ability to achieve our investment objective will depend on our ability to manage our business, which will depend, in
turn, on the ability of THL Credit Advisors to identify, invest in and monitor companies that meet our investment criteria. Accomplishing this result largely will be a function of THL Credit Advisors investment process and, in conjunction with
its role as Administrator, its ability to provide competent, attentive and efficient services to us.

We may experience fluctuations in our
periodic operating results.

We could experience fluctuations in our periodic operating results due to a number of factors,
including the interest rates payable on the debt securities we acquire, the default rates on such securities, the level of our expenses (including the interest rates payable on our borrowings), the dividend rates payable on preferred stock we issue,
variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which we encounter competition in our markets and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any period should not
be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods.

Any failure on our part to maintain our status as a BDC would reduce
our operating flexibility.

If we fail to continue to qualify as a BDC, we might be regulated as a closed-end investment
company under the 1940 Act, which would subject us to substantially more regulatory restrictions under the 1940 Act and correspondingly decrease our operating flexibility and could significantly increase our costs of doing business. Furthermore, any
failure to comply with the requirements imposed on BDCs by the 1940 Act could cause the SEC to bring an enforcement action against us.

To
the extent we use debt or preferred stock to finance our investments, changes in interest rates will affect our cost of capital and net investment income.

To the extent we borrow money, or issue preferred stock, to make investments, our net investment income will depend, in part, upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds or pay dividends
on preferred stock and the rate at which we invest those funds. As a result, we can offer no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income in the event we use debt
to finance our investments. In periods of rising interest rates, our cost of funds would increase, except to the extent we issue fixed rate debt or preferred stock, which could reduce our net investment

income. We expect that our long-term fixed-rate investments will be financed primarily with equity and long-term debt. We may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to limit
our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. Such techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act.

A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates applicable to our debt investments. Accordingly, an increase in interest rates would make it easier for us to
meet or exceed the incentive fee hurdle rate and may result in a substantial increase of the amount of incentive fees payable to our investment adviser with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income.

Because we borrow money, there could be increased risk in investing in our company.

Lenders have fixed dollar claims on our assets that are superior to the claims of stockholders, and we have granted, and may in the future
grant, lenders a security interest in our assets in connection with borrowings. In the case of a liquidation event, those lenders would receive proceeds before our stockholders. In addition, borrowings, also known as leverage, magnify the potential
for gain or loss on amounts invested and, therefore, increase the risks associated with investing in our securities. Leverage is generally considered a speculative investment technique. If the value of our assets increases, then leveraging would
cause the net asset value attributable to our common stock to increase more than it otherwise would have had we not leveraged. Conversely, if the value of our assets decreases, leveraging would cause the net asset value attributable to our common
stock to decline more than it otherwise would have had we not leveraged. Similarly, any increase in our revenue in excess of interest expense on our borrowed funds would cause our net income to increase more than it would without the leverage. Any
decrease in our revenue would cause our net income to decline more than it would have had we not borrowed funds and could negatively affect our ability to make distributions on common stock. Our ability to service any debt that we incur will depend
largely on our financial performance and will be subject to prevailing economic conditions and competitive pressures. We and, indirectly, our stockholders will bear the cost associated with our leverage activity.

On May 10, 2012, we entered into the Amendment to our $50.0 million Term Loan Facility expiring in May 2017 with ING Capital
LLC. The Amendment revised the Revolving Facility, dated March 11, 2011, to, among other things, increase the amount available for borrowing from $125.0 million to $140.0 million and extended the maturity date from May 2014 to May 2016 (with a
one year term out period beginning in May 2015). The Revolving Facility and Term Loan facility, together the Facilities contain financial and operating covenants that could restrict our business activities, including our ability to declare dividends
if we default under certain provisions. As of December 31, 2012, there was $50.0 million of borrowings outstanding against the Facilities and our asset coverage ratio was over 200%. Our borrowings had a weighted average interest rate at the
time of 4.21% exclusive of non-use and other fees associated with the Facilities. Accordingly, to cover the annual interest on our borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2012, at the then current rate, we would have to receive an annual yield
of at least 0.15% (net of expenses). This example is for illustrative purposes only, and actual interest rates on our Facility borrowing are likely to fluctuate. On May 10, 2012, we amended the Facility and entered into a new senior secured
term loan credit facility. See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsFinancial condition, liquidity and capital resourcesCredit Facility for additional information about the
Amendment and the Term Loan Facility.

As a BDC, generally we are not permitted to incur indebtedness unless immediately after
such borrowing we have an asset coverage for total borrowings of at least 200% (i.e., the amount of debt may not exceed 50% of the value of our assets). In addition, we may not be permitted to declare any cash dividend or other distribution on our
outstanding common shares, or purchase any such shares, unless, at the time of such declaration or purchase, we have asset coverage of at least 200% after deducting the amount of such dividend, distribution, or purchase price. If this ratio declines
below 200%, we may not be able to incur additional debt and may need to sell a portion of our investments to repay some debt when it is disadvantageous to do so, and we may not be able to make distributions.

##### Table of Contents

The following table is designed to illustrate the effect on return to a holder of our common
stock on the leverage created by our use of borrowing at December 31, 2012 of $50.0 million at an average interest rate at the time of 4.21%, and assuming hypothetical annual returns on our portfolio of minus 10 to plus 10 percent. The table
also assumes that we maintain a constant level of leverage and a constant weighted average interest rate. The amount of leverage we use will vary from time to time. As can be seen, leverage generally increases the return to stockholders when the
portfolio return is positive and decreases return to stockholders when the portfolio return is negative. Actual returns may be greater or less than those appearing in the table below.



|                                                 |  |  |         |   |  |  |        |   |  |  |        |   |  |  |      |   |  |  |       |

|(1) | The assumed portfolio return is required by regulation of the SEC and is not a prediction of, and does not represent, our projected or actual performance.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(2) | In order to compute the corresponding return to common stockholders, the assumed return on the portfolio is multiplied by the total value of our
assets at the beginning of the period ($277.1 million as of December 31, 2011) to obtain an assumed return to us. From this amount, all interest expense expected to be accrued during the period ($0.7 million) is subtracted to determine the
return available to stockholders. The return available to stockholders is then divided by the total value of our net assets as of the beginning of the period ($267.6 million) to determine the corresponding return to common stockholders.

We may in the future determine to fund a portion of our investments with preferred stock, which would magnify the potential
for gain or loss and the risks of investing in us in the same way as our borrowings.

Preferred stock, which is another
form of leverage, has the same risks to our common stockholders as borrowings because the dividends on any preferred stock we issue must be cumulative. Payment of such dividends and repayment of the liquidation preference of such preferred stock
must take preference over any dividends or other payments to our common stockholders, and preferred stockholders are not subject to any of our expenses or losses and are not entitled to participate in any income or appreciation in excess of their
stated preference.

Our use of borrowed funds to make investments exposes us to risks typically associated with leverage.

We borrow money and may issue additional debt securities or preferred stock to leverage our capital structure. As a result:



| |  |  | our common shares would be exposed to incremental risk of loss; therefore, a decrease in the value of our investments would have a greater negative
impact on the value of our common shares than if we did not use leverage;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any depreciation in the value of our assets may magnify losses associated with an investment and could totally eliminate the value of an asset to us;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | if we do not appropriately match the assets and liabilities of our business and interest or dividend rates on such assets and liabilities, adverse
changes in interest rates could reduce or eliminate the incremental income we make with the proceeds of any leverage;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our ability to pay dividends on our common stock may be restricted if our asset coverage ratio, as provided in the 1940 Act, is not at least 200%, and
any amounts used to service indebtedness or preferred stock would not be available for such dividends;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any credit facility would be subject to periodic renewal by our lenders, whose continued participation cannot be guaranteed;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | such securities would be governed by an indenture or other instrument containing covenants restricting our operating flexibility or affecting our
investment or operating policies, and may require us to pledge assets or provide other security for such indebtedness;

| |  |  | we, and indirectly our common stockholders, bear the entire cost of issuing and paying interest or dividends on such securities;

| |  |  | if we issue preferred stock, the special voting rights and preferences of preferred stockholders may result in such stockholders having interests
that are not aligned with the interests of our common stockholders, and the rights of our preferred stockholders to dividends and liquidation preferences will be senior to the rights of our common stockholders;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of our common shares;
and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any custodial relationships associated with our use of leverage would conform to the requirements of the 1940 Act, and no creditor would have veto
power over our investment policies, strategies, objectives or decisions except in an event of default or if our asset coverage was less than 200%.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under the provisions of the 1940 Act, we are permitted, as a BDC, to issue senior securities only in amounts such that our asset coverage ratio equals at least 200% after each issuance of senior
securities. If the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy this test and we may be required to sell a portion of our investments and, depending on the nature of our leverage, repay a portion of our senior securities at a time when
such sales may be disadvantageous.

There is a risk that we may not make distributions and consequently will become subject to
corporate-level income tax.

We cannot assure you that we will achieve investment results that will allow us to make a
specified level of cash distributions or periodically increase our dividend rate.

As a BDC, we are required to carry our
investments at market value or, if no market value is ascertainable, at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our board of directors. Decreases in the market values or fair values of our investments will be recorded as
unrealized depreciation. Any unrealized depreciation in our investment portfolio could be an indication of a portfolio companys potential inability to meet its repayment obligations to us. This could result in realized losses in the future and
ultimately in reductions of our income available for distribution in future periods.

To maintain our qualification as a RIC
under the Code, we must meet certain source-of-income, asset diversification and annual distribution requirements. The annual distribution requirement for a RIC is satisfied if we distribute at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net
short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, to our stockholders on an annual basis. To the extent we use debt financing or preferred stock, we may become subject to certain asset coverage ratio requirements
and other financial covenants under the terms of our debt or preferred stock, and could in some circumstances also become subject to similar requirements under the 1940 Act, that could, under certain circumstances, restrict us from making
distributions necessary to qualify as a RIC. Failure to meet these tests may result in our having to dispose of certain investments quickly in order to prevent the loss of RIC status. Because we anticipate that most of our investments will be in
private companies, any such dispositions could be made at disadvantageous prices and may result in substantial losses. If we are unable to obtain cash from other sources, or otherwise prohibited from making distributions, we may fail to qualify as a
RIC and, thus, may be subject to corporate-level income tax. If we fail to qualify as a RIC for any reason and become subject to corporate-level income tax, the resulting corporate-level income taxes could substantially reduce our net assets, the
amount of income available for distribution and the amount of our distributions.

We may have difficulty paying our required distributions
if we recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income.

For federal income tax purposes, we may
include in income certain amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as original issue discount, which may arise if we receive warrants in connection with the making of a



34

##### Table of Contents

loan or possibly in other circumstances, or PIK interest, which represents contractual interest added to the loan balance and due at the end of the loan term. Such original issue discount, which
could be significant relative to our overall investment activities, or increases in loan balances as a result of PIK arrangements are included in income before we receive any corresponding cash payments. We also may be required to include in income
certain other amounts that we do not receive in cash.

Since we may recognize income before or without receiving cash
representing such income, we may have difficulty meeting the tax requirement to distribute at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, to maintain our
status as a RIC. Accordingly, we may have to sell some of our investments at times we would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital or reduce new investment originations to meet these distribution requirements.

We may pay incentive fee on income we do not receive in cash.

That part of the incentive fee payable by us that relates to our net investment income is computed and paid on income that may include interest that has been accrued but not yet received in cash. If a
portfolio company defaults on a loan, it is possible that accrued interest previously used in the calculation of the incentive fee will become uncollectible. Consequently, while we may make incentive fee payments on income accruals that we may not
collect in the future and with respect to which we do not have a formal clawback right against our investment adviser per se, the amount of accrued income written off in any period will reduce the income in the period in which such write-off was
taken and thereby reduce such periods incentive fee payment.

The highly competitive market in which we operate may limit our
investment opportunities.

A number of entities compete with us to make the types of investments that we make. We compete
with other BDCs, public and private funds, commercial and investment banks, CLO funds, commercial finance companies, and, to the extent they provide an alternative form of financing, private equity and hedge funds. Additionally, because competition
for investment opportunities generally has increased among alternative investment vehicles such as hedge funds, entities have begun to invest in areas in which they had not traditionally invested. As a result of these new entrants, competition for
investment opportunities intensified in recent years and may intensify further in the future. Some of our existing and potential competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we
do. For example, some competitors may have a lower cost of funds and access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, which could allow them
to consider a wider variety of investments and establish more relationships than us. Furthermore, many of our competitors are not subject to the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC and that the Code imposes on us as a
RIC. We cannot assure you that the competitive pressures we face will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Also, as a result of this existing and potentially increasing competition, we
may not be able to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities from time to time, and we can offer no assurance that we will be able to identify and make investments that are consistent with our investment objective.

We are dependent upon senior management personnel of our investment adviser for our future success, and if our investment adviser is unable to retain
qualified personnel or if our investment adviser loses any member of its senior management team, our ability to achieve our investment objective could be significantly harmed.

We depend on the members of senior management of THL Credit Advisors, particularly its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment
Officer, James K. Hunt, its Co-Presidents, W. Hunter Stropp and Sam W. Tillinghast, its Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Terrence W. Olson, its Chief Compliance Officer and General Counsel, Stephanie Paré Sullivan, its
Managing Directors, Christopher J. Flynn, its Director Scott V. Turco, collectively, the THL Credit Principals. Messrs. Hunt, Stropp, Tillinghast and Flynn constitute

##### Table of Contents

the investment principals of THL Credit Advisors, or the THL Credit Investment Principals. The THL Credit Investment Principals and other investment professionals make up our investment team
and are responsible for the identification, final selection, structuring, closing and monitoring of our investments. These investment team members have critical industry experience and relationships that we will rely on to implement our business
plan. Our future success depends on the continued service of the THL Credit Principals and the rest of our investment advisers senior management team. The departure of any of the members of THL Credit Advisors senior management or a
significant number of the members of its investment team could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our investment objective. As a result, we may not be able to operate our business as we expect, and our ability to compete could
be harmed, which could cause our operating results to suffer. In addition, we can offer no assurance that THL Credit Advisors will remain our investment adviser or our administrator.

Our investment adviser has the right to resign on 60 days notice, and we may not be able to find a suitable replacement within that time, resulting in a disruption in our operations that could
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

THL Credit Advisors has the right, under our
investment management agreement, to resign at any time upon not more than 60 days written notice, whether we have found a new replacement or not. If our investment adviser resigns, we may not be able to find a new investment adviser or hire
internal management with similar expertise and ability to provide the same or equivalent services on acceptable terms within 60 days, or at all. If we are unable to do so quickly, our operations are likely to experience a disruption, our financial
condition, business and results of operations as well as our ability to pay distributions are likely to be adversely affected and the market price of our shares may decline. In addition, the coordination of our internal management and investment
activities is likely to suffer if we are unable to identify and reach an agreement with a single institution or group of executives having the expertise possessed by our investment adviser and its affiliates. Even if we are able to retain comparable
management, whether internal or external, the integration of such management and their lack of familiarity with our investment objective may result in additional costs and time delays that may adversely affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations.

Because we expect to distribute substantially all of our net investment income and net realized capital gains to
our stockholders, we will need additional capital to finance our growth and such capital may not be available on favorable terms or at all.

We have elected to be taxed for federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. If we meet certain requirements, including source of income, asset diversification and distribution
requirements, and if we continue to qualify as a BDC, we will continue to qualify to be a RIC under the Code and will not have to pay corporate-level income taxes on income we distribute to our stockholders as dividends, allowing us to substantially
reduce or eliminate our corporate-level income tax liability. As a BDC, we are generally required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets to total senior securities, which includes all of our borrowings and any preferred stock we may issue in the
future, of at least 200% at the time we issue any debt or preferred stock. This requirement limits the amount that we may borrow. Because we will continue to need capital to grow our investment portfolio, this limitation may prevent us from
incurring debt or preferred stock and require us to raise additional equity at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so. We cannot assure you that debt and equity financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all, and debt
financings may be restricted by the terms of any of our outstanding borrowings. In addition, as a BDC, we are generally not permitted to issue common stock priced below net asset value without stockholder approval. If additional funds are not
available to us, we could be forced to curtail or cease new lending and investment activities, and our net asset value could decline.

Our
board of directors may change our investment objective, operating policies and strategies without prior notice or stockholder approval.

Our board of directors has the authority to modify or waive certain of our operating policies and strategies without prior notice and without stockholder approval (except as required by the 1940 Act).
However, absent



36

##### Table of Contents

stockholder approval, we may not change the nature of our business so as to cease to be, or withdraw our election as, a BDC. We cannot predict the effect any changes to our current operating
policies and strategies would have on our business, operating results or value of our stock. Nevertheless, the effects could adversely affect our business and impact our ability to make distributions and cause you to lose all or part of your
investment.

Our investment adviser and its affiliates, senior management and employees have certain conflicts of interest.

Our investment adviser, its senior management and employees serve or may serve as investment advisers, officers, directors or principals
of entities that operate in the same or a related line of business. Accordingly, these individuals may have obligations to investors in those entities or funds, the fulfillment of which might not be in our best interests or the best interests of our
stockholders. In addition, certain of the personnel employed by our investment adviser or focused on our business may change in ways that are detrimental to our business. Any affiliated investment vehicle formed in the future and managed by THL
Credit Advisors or its affiliates may invest in asset classes similar to those targeted by us. As a result, THL Credit Advisors may face conflicts in allocating investment opportunities between us and such other entities. Although THL Credit
Advisors will endeavor to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner, it is possible that we may not be given the opportunity to participate in such investments. In any such case, if THL Credit Advisors forms other affiliates
in the future, it is possible we may co-invest on a concurrent basis with such other affiliates, subject to compliance with applicable regulations and regulatory guidance, as well as applicable allocation procedures. In certain circumstances,
negotiated co-investments may be made only if we receive an order from the SEC permitting us to do so. There can be no assurance when any such order would be obtained or that one will be obtained at all.

There are potential conflicts of interest between us and the fund managed by us which could impact our investment returns.

Greenway is an investment fund with $150 million of capital committed by affiliates of a single institutional investor, which has been
called and invested by Greenway, and is managed by us.

Certain of our officers serve or may serve in an investment management
capacity to Greenway. As a result, investment professionals may allocate such time and attention as is deemed appropriate and necessary to carry out operations of Greenway. In this respect, they may experience diversions of their attention from us
and potential conflicts of interest between their work for us and their work for Greenway in the event that the interests of Greenway run counter to our interests.

Greenway invests in the same or similar asset classes that we target. These investments may be made at the direction of the same individuals acting in their capacity on behalf of us and Greenway. As a
result, there may be conflicts in the allocation of investment opportunities between us and Greenway. We may or may not participate in investments made by funds managed by us or one of our affiliates.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR INVESTMENTS

We invest primarily in debt and equity securities of middle market companies and we may not realize gains from our equity investments.

We are a direct lender to middle market companies, and invest in subordinated, or mezzanine, debt and second lien senior secured debt,
which may include an associated equity component such as warrants, preferred stock or other similar securities. We may also selectively invest in first lien secured loans that generally have structures with higher interest rates, which include
unitranche investments, or loan structures that combine characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured as well as second lien and subordinated loans. In certain instances we will also make direct equity investments, including equity
investments into or through funds, and we may also selectively invest in more broadly syndicated first lien secured loans from time to time. Our goal is



37



---

##### Table of Contents

ultimately to dispose of such equity interests and realize gains upon our disposition of such interests. However, the equity interests we receive may not appreciate in value and, in fact, may
decline in value. Accordingly, we may not be able to realize gains from our equity interests, and any gains that we do realize on the disposition of any equity interests may not be sufficient to offset any other losses we experience.

Our investments in prospective private and middle market portfolio companies are risky, and we could lose all or part of our investment.

Investment in private and middle market companies involves a number of significant risks. Generally, little public
information exists about these companies, and we are required to rely on the ability of THL Credit Advisors investment professionals to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential returns from investing in these companies. If we are
unable to uncover all material information about these companies, we may not make a fully informed investment decision, and we may lose money on our investments. Middle market companies may have limited financial resources and may be unable to meet
their obligations under their debt securities that we hold, which may be accompanied by a deterioration in the value of any collateral and a reduction in the likelihood of our realizing any guarantees we may have obtained in connection with our
investment. In addition, they typically have shorter operating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors actions and market conditions, as well
as general economic downturns. Additionally, middle market companies are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of persons; therefore, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of these
persons could have a material adverse impact on our portfolio company and, in turn, on us. Middle market companies also generally have less predictable operating results, may from time to time be parties to litigation, may be engaged in rapidly
changing businesses with products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence and may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position. In addition, our executive
officers, directors and our investment adviser may, in the ordinary course of business, be named as defendants in litigation arising from our investments in the portfolio companies.

Our investments in lower credit quality obligations are risky and highly speculative, and we could lose all or part of our investment.

Most of our debt investments are likely to be in lower grade obligations. The lower grade investments in which we invest may be rated
below investment grade by one or more nationally-recognized statistical rating agencies at the time of investment or may be unrated but determined by the Advisor to be of comparable quality. Debt securities rated below investment grade are commonly
referred to as junk bonds and are considered speculative with respect to the issuers capacity to pay interest and repay principal. The debt in which we invest typically is not rated by any rating agency, but we believe that if such
investments were rated, they would be below investment grade (rated lower than Baa3 by Moodys Investors Service, lower than BBB- by Fitch Ratings or lower than BBB- by Standard & Poors). We
may invest without limit in debt of any rating, as well as debt that has not been rated by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

Investment in lower grade investments involves a substantial risk of loss. Lower grade securities or comparable unrated securities are considered predominantly speculative with respect to the
issuers ability to pay interest and principal and are susceptible to default or decline in market value due to adverse economic and business developments. The market values for lower grade debt tend to be very volatile and are less liquid than
investment grade securities. For these reasons, your investment in our company is subject to the following specific risks: increased price sensitivity to a deteriorating economic environment; greater risk of loss due to default or declining credit
quality; adverse company specific events are more likely to render the issuer unable to make interest and/or principal payments; and if a negative perception of the lower grade debt market develops, the price and liquidity of lower grade securities
may be depressed. This negative perception could last for a significant period of time.

##### Table of Contents

We may not be in a position to exercise control over our portfolio companies or to prevent decisions by
management of our portfolio companies that could decrease the value of our investments.

We do not generally intend to take
controlling equity positions in our portfolio companies. To the extent that we do not hold a controlling equity interest in a portfolio company, we are subject to the risk that such portfolio company may make business decisions with which we
disagree, and the stockholders and management of such portfolio company may take risks or otherwise act in ways that are adverse to our interests. Due to the lack of liquidity for the debt and equity investments that we typically hold in our
portfolio companies, we may not be able to dispose of our investments in the event we disagree with the actions of a portfolio company, and may therefore suffer a decrease in the value of our investments.

In addition, we may not be in a position to control any portfolio company by investing in its debt securities. As a result, we are
subject to the risk that a portfolio company in which we invest may make business decisions with which we disagree and the management of such company, as representatives of the holders of their common equity, may take risks or otherwise act in ways
that do not serve our interests as debt investors.

Our portfolio companies may incur debt that ranks equally with, or senior to, our
investments in such companies.

The portfolio companies in which we have invested debt capital usually have, or may be
permitted to incur with certain limitations, other debt that ranks equally with, or senior to, the debt securities in which we invest. By their terms, such debt instruments may provide that the holders are entitled to receive payment of interest or
principal on or before the dates on which we are entitled to receive payments in respect of the debt securities in which we invest. Also, in the event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a portfolio company,
holders of debt instruments ranking senior to our investment in that portfolio company would typically be entitled to receive payment in full before we receive any distribution in respect of our investment. After repaying such senior creditors, such
portfolio company may not have any remaining assets to use for repaying its obligation to us. In the case of debt ranking equally with debt securities in which we invest, we would have to share any distributions on an equal and ratable basis with
other creditors holding such debt in the event of an insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of the relevant portfolio company.

Additionally, certain loans that we make to portfolio companies may be secured on a second priority basis by the same collateral securing senior secured debt of such companies. The first priority liens on
the collateral will secure the portfolio companys obligations under any outstanding senior debt and may secure certain other future debt that may be permitted to be incurred by the portfolio company under the agreements governing the loans.
The holders of obligations secured by the first priority liens on the collateral will generally control the liquidation of and be entitled to receive proceeds from any realization of the collateral to repay their obligations in full before us. In
addition, the value of the collateral in the event of liquidation will depend on market and economic conditions, the availability of buyers and other factors. There can be no assurance that the proceeds, if any, from the sale or sales of all of the
collateral would be sufficient to satisfy the loan obligations secured by the second priority liens after payment in full of all obligations secured by the first priority liens on the collateral. If such proceeds are not sufficient to repay amounts
outstanding under the loan obligations secured by the second priority liens, then we, to the extent not repaid from the proceeds of the sale of the collateral, will only have an unsecured claim against the portfolio companys remaining assets,
if any.

The rights we may have with respect to the collateral securing the mezzanine, or subordinated, loans and second lien
loans we make to our portfolio companies with senior debt outstanding may also be limited pursuant to the terms of one or more intercreditor agreements that we enter into with the holders of senior debt. Under such an intercreditor agreement, at any
time that obligations that have the benefit of the first priority liens are outstanding, any of the following actions that may be taken in respect of the collateral will be at the direction of the holders of the obligations secured by the first
priority liens: the ability to cause the commencement of enforcement proceedings against the collateral; the ability to control the conduct of such proceedings; the

approval of amendments to collateral documents; releases of liens on the collateral; and waivers of past defaults under collateral documents. We may not have the ability to control or direct such
actions, even if our rights are adversely affected.

If the assets securing the loans that we make decrease in value, then we may lack
sufficient collateral to cover losses.

We will at times take a security interest in the available assets of these
portfolio companies, including the equity interests of their subsidiaries and, in some cases, the equity interests of our portfolio companies held by their stockholders. There is a risk that the collateral securing these types of loans may decrease
in value over time, may be difficult to sell in a timely manner, may be difficult to appraise and may fluctuate in value based upon the success of the business and market conditions, including as a result of the inability of a portfolio company to
raise additional capital. In some circumstances, our lien could be subordinated to claims of other creditors. Additionally, deterioration in a portfolio companys financial condition and prospects, including its inability to raise additional
capital, may be accompanied by deterioration in the value of the collateral for these types of loans. Moreover, in the case of most of our investments, we do not have a first lien position on the collateral. Consequently, the fact that a loan may be
secured does not guarantee that we will receive principal and interest payments according to the loans terms, or that we will be able to collect on the loan should we be forced to enforce our remedies.

Economic downturns or recessions could impair the value of the collateral for our loans to our portfolio companies and consequently increase the
possibility of an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Many of our portfolio companies are
susceptible to economic recessions and may be unable to repay our loans during such periods. Therefore, our non-performing assets are likely to increase and the value of our portfolio is likely to decrease during such periods. Adverse economic
conditions may also decrease the value of collateral securing some of our loans and the value of our equity investments.

Economic slowdowns or recessions could lead to financial losses in our portfolio and a decrease in revenues, net income and assets.
Unfavorable economic conditions also could increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to us.

A portfolio companys failure to satisfy financial or operating covenants imposed by us or other lenders could lead to defaults and, potentially, termination of the portfolio companys loans and
foreclosure on its secured assets, which could trigger cross-defaults under other agreements and jeopardize the portfolio companys ability to meet its obligations under the debt securities that we hold. We may incur expenses to the extent
necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new terms with a defaulting portfolio company. In addition, if a portfolio company goes bankrupt, even though we may have structured our investment as mezzanine debt, or senior secured debt,
depending on the facts and circumstances, including the extent to which we actually provided significant managerial assistance, if any, to that portfolio company, a bankruptcy court might re-characterize our debt holding and subordinate
all or a portion of our claim to that of other creditors. These events could harm our financial condition and operating results.

We may
suffer a loss if a portfolio company defaults on a loan and the underlying collateral is not sufficient.

In the event of a
default by a portfolio company on a secured loan, we will only have recourse to the assets collateralizing the loan. If the underlying collateral value is less than the loan amount, we will suffer a loss. In addition, we often make loans that are
unsecured, which are subject to the risk that other lenders may be directly secured by the assets of the portfolio company. In the event of a default, those collateralized lenders would have priority over us with respect to the proceeds of a sale of
the underlying assets. In cases described above, we may



40



---

##### Table of Contents

lack control over the underlying asset collateralizing our loan or the underlying assets of the portfolio company prior to a default, and as a result the value of the collateral may be reduced by
acts or omissions by owners or managers of the assets.

In the event of bankruptcy of a portfolio company, we may not have
full recourse to its assets in order to satisfy our loan, or our loan may be subject to equitable subordination. In addition, certain of our loans are subordinate to other debt of the portfolio company. If a portfolio company defaults on our loan or
on debt senior to our loan, or in the event of a portfolio company bankruptcy, our loan will be satisfied only after the senior debt receives payment. Where debt senior to our loan exists, the presence of intercreditor arrangements may limit our
ability to amend our loan documents, assign our loans, accept prepayments, exercise our remedies (through standstill periods) and control decisions made in bankruptcy proceedings relating to the portfolio company. Bankruptcy and
portfolio company litigation can significantly increase collection losses and the time needed for us to acquire the underlying collateral in the event of a default, during which time the collateral may decline in value, causing us to suffer losses.

If the value of collateral underlying our loan declines or interest rates increase during the term of our loan, a portfolio
company may not be able to obtain the necessary funds to repay our loan at maturity through refinancing. Decreasing collateral value and/or increasing interest rates may hinder a portfolio companys ability to refinance our loan because the
underlying collateral cannot satisfy the debt service coverage requirements necessary to obtain new financing. If a borrower is unable to repay our loan at maturity, we could suffer a loss which may adversely impact our financial performance.

Our loans could be subject to equitable subordination by a court which would increase our risk of loss with respect to such loans.

Courts may apply the doctrine of equitable subordination to subordinate the claim or lien of a lender against a borrower
to claims or liens of other creditors of the borrower, when the lender or its affiliates is found to have engaged in unfair, inequitable or fraudulent conduct. The courts have also applied the doctrine of equitable subordination when a lender or its
affiliates is found to have exerted inappropriate control over a client, including control resulting from the ownership of equity interests in a client. We have made direct equity investments or received warrants in connection with loans
representing approximately 1.00% of the aggregate outstanding balance of our portfolio as of December 31, 2012. Payments on one or more of our loans, particularly a loan to a client in which we also hold an equity interest, may be subject to
claims of equitable subordination. If we were deemed to have the ability to control or otherwise exercise influence over the business and affairs of one or more of our portfolio companies resulting in economic hardship to other creditors of that
company, this control or influence may constitute grounds for equitable subordination and a court may treat one or more of our loans as if it were unsecured or common equity in the portfolio company. In that case, if the portfolio company were to
liquidate, we would be entitled to repayment of our loan on a pro-rata basis with other unsecured debt or, if the effect of subordination was to place us at the level of common equity, then on an equal basis with other holders of the portfolio
companys common equity only after all of its obligations relating to its debt and preferred securities had been satisfied.

Our
failure to make follow-on investments in our portfolio companies could impair the value of our portfolio.

Following an
initial investment in a portfolio company, we may make additional investments in that portfolio company as follow-on investments in order to: (1) increase or maintain in whole or in part our equity ownership percentage;
(2) exercise warrants, options or convertible securities that were acquired in the original or subsequent financing; or (3) attempt to preserve or enhance the value of our initial investment. We have the discretion to make any follow-on
investments, subject to the availability of capital resources. We may elect not to make follow-on investments or otherwise lack sufficient funds to make those investments. Our failure to make follow-on investments may, in some circumstances,
jeopardize the continued viability of a portfolio company



41

##### Table of Contents

and our initial investment, or may result in a missed opportunity for us to increase our participation in a successful operation. Even if we have sufficient capital to make a desired follow-on
investment, we may elect not to make such follow-on investment because we may not want to increase our concentration of risk, because we prefer other opportunities, because we are inhibited by compliance with BDC requirements or because we desire to
maintain our tax status.

Our ability to invest in public companies may be limited in certain circumstances.

To maintain our status as a BDC, we are not permitted to acquire any assets other than qualifying assets specified in the 1940
Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Subject to certain exceptions for follow-on investments and distressed companies, an investment in an issuer
that has outstanding securities listed on a national securities exchange may be treated as a qualifying asset only if such issuer has a market capitalization that is less than $250 million at the time of such investment and meets the other specified
requirements.

Our base management fee may induce our investment adviser to incur leverage.

Our base management fee is calculated on the basis of our total assets, including assets acquired with the proceeds of leverage. This may
encourage the Advisor to use leverage to increase the aggregate amount of and the return on our investments, even when it may not be appropriate to do so, and to refrain from delevering when it would otherwise be appropriate to do so. Under certain
circumstances, the use of increased leverage may increase the likelihood of default, which would impair the value of our common stock. Given the subjective nature of the investment decisions made by our investment adviser on our behalf, we will not
be able to monitor this conflict of interest.

Our incentive fee may induce our investment adviser to make certain investments, including
speculative investments.

The incentive fee payable by us to THL Credit Advisors may create an incentive for THL Credit
Advisors to make investments on our behalf that are risky or more speculative than would be the case in the absence of such compensation arrangement. The way in which the incentive fee payable to THL Credit Advisors is determined, which is
calculated separately in two components as a percentage of the interest and other ordinary income in excess of a quarterly minimum hurdle rate and as a percentage of the realized gain on invested capital, may encourage our THL Credit Advisors to use
leverage or take additional risk to increase the return on our investments. Under certain circumstances, the use of leverage may increase the likelihood of default, which would disfavor the holders of our common stock, or of securities convertible
into our common stock or warrants representing rights to purchase our common stock or securities convertible into our common stock. In addition, THL Credit Advisors receives the incentive fee based, in part, upon net capital gains realized on our
investments. Unlike the portion of the incentive fee based on ordinary income, there is no minimum level of gain applicable to the portion of the incentive fee based on net capital gains. As a result, THL Credit Advisors may have an incentive to
invest more in investments that are likely to result in capital gains as compared to income producing securities or to advance or delay realizing a gain in order to enhance its incentive fee. This practice could result in our investing in more
speculative securities than would otherwise be the case, which could result in higher investment losses, particularly during economic downturns. A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates
applicable to certain of our debt investments and may accordingly result in a substantial increase of the amount of incentive fees payable to our investment adviser with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income.

We may invest, to the extent permitted by law, in the securities and instruments of other investment companies, including private funds,
and, to the extent we so invest, we will bear our ratable share of any such investment companys expenses, including management and performance fees. We will also remain obligated to pay management and incentive fees to THL Credit Advisors with
respect to the assets invested in the securities



42

##### Table of Contents

and instruments of other investment companies. With respect to each of these investments, each of our common stockholders will bear his or her share of the management and incentive fee of THL
Credit Advisors as well as indirectly bear the management and performance fees and other expenses of any investment companies in which we invest.

We may be obligated to pay our investment adviser incentive compensation payments even if we have incurred unrecovered cumulative losses from more than three years prior to such payments and may pay
more than 20% of our net capital gains as incentive compensation payments because we cannot recover payments made in previous years.

Our investment adviser will be entitled to incentive compensation for each fiscal quarter in an amount equal to a percentage of the excess of our investment income for that quarter (before deducting
incentive compensation) above a threshold return for that quarter and subject to a total return requirement. The general effect of this total return requirement is to prevent payment of the foregoing incentive compensation except to the extent 20.0%
of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations over the then current and 11 preceding calendar quarters exceeds the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid for the 11 preceding calendar quarters. Consequently, we may
pay an incentive fee if we incurred losses more than three years prior to the current calendar quarter even if such losses have not yet been recovered in full. Thus, we may be required to pay our investment adviser incentive compensation for a
fiscal quarter even if there is a decline in the value of our portfolio or we incur a net loss for that quarter. If we pay an incentive fee of 20.0% of our realized capital gains (net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital
depreciation on a cumulative basis) and thereafter experience additional realized capital losses or unrealized capital depreciation, we will not be able to recover any portion of the incentive fee previously paid.

Our investments in foreign securities may involve significant risks in addition to the risks inherent in U.S. investments.

Our investment strategy contemplates that a portion of our investments may be in securities of foreign companies in order to provide
diversification or to complement our U.S. investments although we are required generally to invest at least 70% of our assets in companies organized and having their principal place of business within the U.S. and its possessions. Investing in
foreign companies may expose us to additional risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies. These risks include changes in exchange control regulations, political and social instability, expropriation, imposition of foreign taxes,
less liquid markets and less available information than is generally the case in the United States, higher transaction costs, less government supervision of exchanges, brokers and issuers, less developed bankruptcy laws, difficulty in enforcing
contractual obligations, lack of uniform accounting and auditing standards and greater price volatility. These risks many be more pronounced for portfolio companies located or operating primarily in emerging markets, whose economies, markets and
legal systems may be less developed.

Although it is anticipated that most of our investments will be denominated in U.S.
dollars, our investments that are denominated in a foreign currency will be subject to the risk that the value of a particular currency may change in relation to the U.S. dollar. Among the factors that may affect currency values are trade balances,
the level of short-term interest rates, differences in relative values of similar assets in different currencies, long-term opportunities for investment and capital appreciation and political developments. We may employ hedging techniques to
minimize these risks, but we can offer no assurance that we will, in fact, hedge currency risk or, that if we do, such strategies will be effective. As a result, a change in currency exchange rates may adversely affect our profitability.

Hedging transactions may expose us to additional risks.

While we may enter into transactions to seek to reduce currency exchange rate and interest rate risks, unanticipated changes in currency exchange rates or interest rates may result in poorer overall
investment performance than if we had not engaged in any such hedging transactions. In addition, the degree of correlation



43



---

##### Table of Contents

between price movements of the instruments used in a hedging strategy and price movements in the portfolio positions being hedged may vary. Moreover, for a variety of reasons, we may not seek or
be able to establish a perfect correlation between such hedging instruments and the portfolio holdings being hedged. Any such imperfect correlation may prevent us from achieving the intended hedge and expose us to risk of loss. In addition, it may
not be possible to hedge fully or perfectly against currency fluctuations affecting the value of securities denominated in non-U.S. currencies because the value of those securities is likely to fluctuate as a result of factors not related to
currency fluctuations. On May 10, 2012, we entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement, or swap agreement, with ING Capital Markets, LLC on the Term Loan Facility. Under the swap agreement, with a notional value of $50.0 million, we
pay a fixed rate of 1.1425% and receive a floating rate based upon the current three-month LIBOR rate. We entered into the swap agreement to manage interest rate risk and not for speculative purposes.

RISKS IN THE CURRENT ENVIRONMENT

Capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability. Such market conditions could materially and adversely affect debt and equity
capital markets in the United States and abroad, which could have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability. For example, we believe that beginning in 2007, and continuing into 2010, the global capital markets entered into a period of
disruption as evidenced by a lack of liquidity in the debt capital markets, significant write-offs in the financial services sector, the re-pricing of credit risk in the broadly syndicated credit market and the failure of certain major financial
institutions. Despite actions of the United States federal government and foreign governments, these events contributed to worsening general economic conditions that materially and adversely impacted the broader financial and credit markets and
reduced the availability of debt and equity capital for the market as a whole and financial services firms in particular. Such a period of economic disruption and instability could occur again, having a similar or worse impact on the broader
financial and credit markets. Such conditions could also continue for a prolonged period of time. If these conditions occur and then persist, we and other companies in the financial services sector may be required to, or may choose to, seek access
to alternative markets for debt and equity capital. Equity capital may then be difficult to raise if our board of directors does not approve an offering in which we would issue and sell our common stock at a price below net asset value per share. In
addition, the debt capital that would be available, if at all, may be at a higher cost, and on less favorable terms and conditions at such time. Conversely, the portfolio companies in which we may invest may not be able to service or refinance their
debt, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition as we would experience reduced income or even losses. In a period of such adverse conditions, the inability to raise capital and the risk of portfolio company defaults may
have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The downgrade in the U.S. credit rating
could materially adversely affect our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

On August 5,
2011, Standard & Poors downgraded the U.S. credit rating to AA+ from its top rank of AAA. The current U.S. debt ceiling and budget deficit concerns have increased the possibility of other credit-rating agency downgrades
and an economic slowdown. The downgrade of the U.S. credit rating could have a material adverse effect on the financial markets and economic conditions in the United States and throughout the world. Additionally, austerity
measures necessary to reduce the deficit could accelerate an already slowing economy in the near term.

Downgrading of the
U.S. credit rating could negatively impact the trading market for U.S. government securities and would likely impact the credit risk associated with our investments in U.S. Treasury securities. This could reduce the value of the U.S. Treasury
securities in our portfolio. In addition, adverse market and economic conditions that could occur due to a downgrade of the U.S. credit rating on the United States debt could result in rapidly rising interest rates, a falling dollar,
shakier financial markets and slowing or



44

##### Table of Contents

negative economic growth in the near term. These events could adversely affect our business in many ways, including, but not limited to, adversely impacting our portfolio companies
ability to obtain financing, or obtaining financing but at significantly lower valuations than the preceding financing rounds. If any of these events were to occur, it could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR OPERATIONS
AS A BDC

Our ability to enter into transactions with our affiliates will be restricted.

Because we have elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, we are prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain
transactions with certain of our affiliates without the prior approval of our independent directors and, in some cases, of the SEC. Any person that owns, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of our outstanding voting securities will be our affiliate
for purposes of the 1940 Act and we are generally prohibited from buying or selling any security from or to such affiliate, absent the prior approval of our independent directors. The 1940 Act also prohibits certain joint transactions
with certain of our affiliates, which could include investments in the same portfolio company (whether at the same or different times), without prior approval of our independent directors and, in some cases, of the SEC. We are prohibited from buying
or selling any security from or to any person who owns more than 25% of our voting securities or certain of that persons affiliates, or entering into prohibited joint transactions with such persons, absent the prior approval of the SEC.
Similar restrictions limit our ability to transact business with our officers or directors or their affiliates.

Regulations governing our
operation as a BDC may limit our ability to, and the way in which we raise additional capital, which could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business may in the future require a substantial amount of capital. We may acquire additional capital from the issuance of senior
securities (including debt and preferred stock) or the issuance of additional shares of our common stock. However, we may not be able to raise additional capital in the future on favorable terms or at all. Additionally, we may only issue senior
securities up to the maximum amount permitted by the 1940 Act. The 1940 Act permits us to issue senior securities only in amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% after such issuance or incurrence. If
our assets decline in value and we fail to satisfy this test, we may be required to liquidate a portion of our investments and repay a portion of our indebtedness at a time when such sales or repayment may be disadvantageous, which could have a
material adverse impact on our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.



| |  |  | Senior Securities (including debt and preferred stock). As a result of issuing senior securities, we would also be exposed to typical risks
associated with leverage, including an increased risk of loss. If we issue preferred securities, such securities would rank senior to common stock in our capital structure, resulting in preferred stockholders having separate voting
rights, dividend and liquidation rights, and possibly other rights, preferences or privileges more favorable than those granted to holders of our common stock. Furthermore, the issuance of preferred securities could have the effect of delaying,
deferring or preventing a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stockholders or otherwise be in your best interest.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Additional Common Stock. Our board of directors may decide to issue common stock to finance our operations rather than issuing debt or other
senior securities. As a BDC, we are generally not able to issue our common stock at a price below net asset value without first obtaining required approvals from our stockholders and our independent directors. At our Annual Meeting of Stockholders
on June 7, 2012, our stockholders approved a proposal authorizing us to sell up to 25% of our common stock at a price below the Companys net asset value per share, subject to approval by our board of directors of the offering. Except in
connection with the exercise of warrants or the conversion of convertible securities, in any such case the price at which our securities are to be issued and sold may not be less than a price, that in the determination of our board of directors,
closely approximates the market value
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| | of such securities at the relevant time. We may also make rights offerings to our stockholders at prices per share less than the net asset value per share, subject to the requirements of the 1940
Act. If we raise additional funds by issuing more common stock or senior securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, our common stock, the percentage ownership of our stockholders at that time would decrease, and such stockholders may
experience dilution.
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Additionally, if we do raise additional capital in one or more subsequent financings,
until we are able to invest the net proceeds of such any financing in suitable investments, we will invest in temporary investments, such as cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature
in one year or less, which we expect will earn yields lower than the interest, dividend or other income that we anticipate receiving in respect of investments in debt and equity securities of our target portfolio companies. As a result, our ability
to pay dividends in the years of operation during which we have such net proceeds available to invest will be based on our ability to invest our capital in suitable portfolio companies in a timely manner. Further, the management fee payable to
our investment adviser, THL Credit Advisors, will not be reduced while our assets are invested in such temporary investments.

Changes in
the laws or regulations governing our business, or changes in the interpretations thereof, and any failure by us to comply with these laws or regulations, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial
condition.

Changes in the laws or regulations or the interpretations of the laws and regulations that govern BDCs, RICs or
non-depository commercial lenders could significantly affect our operations and our cost of doing business. We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations and are subject to judicial and administrative decisions that affect our
operations, including our loan originations, maximum interest rates, fees and other charges, disclosures to portfolio companies, the terms of secured transactions, collection and foreclosure procedures and other trade practices. If these laws,
regulations or decisions change, or if we expand our business into jurisdictions that have adopted more stringent requirements than those in which we currently conduct business, we may have to incur significant expenses in order to comply, or we
might have to restrict our operations. In addition, if we do not comply with applicable laws, regulations and decisions, we may lose licenses needed for the conduct of our business and may be subject to civil fines and criminal penalties.

Pending legislation may allow us to incur additional leverage.

As a BDC, under the 1940 Act generally we are not permitted to incur indebtedness unless immediately after such borrowing we have an asset
coverage for total borrowings of at least 200% (i.e., the amount of debt may not exceed 50% of the value of our assets). Recent legislation introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, if passed, would modify this section of the 1940 Act and
increase the amount of debt that business development companies may incur by modifying the percentage from 200% to 150%. As a result, we may be able to incur additional indebtedness in the future and therefore your risk of an investment in us may
increase.

If we do not invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could fail to qualify as a BDC or be precluded
from investing according to our current business strategy, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

As a BDC, we may not acquire any assets other than qualifying assets unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such acquisition, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets.
See Regulation. We believe that most of the investments that we may acquire in the future will constitute qualifying assets. However, we may be precluded from investing in what we believe are attractive investments if such investments
are not qualifying assets for purposes of the 1940 Act. If we do not invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could be found to be in violation of the 1940 Act provisions applicable to BDCs and possibly lose our status as a
BDC, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of



46

##### Table of Contents

operations. Similarly, these rules could prevent us from making follow-on investments in existing portfolio companies (which could result in the dilution of our position) or could require us to
dispose of investments at inopportune times in order to come into compliance with the 1940 Act. If we need to dispose of such investments quickly, it may be difficult to dispose of such investments on favorable terms. For example, we may have
difficulty in finding a buyer and, even if we do find a buyer, we may have to sell the investments at a substantial loss.

If we are unable
to qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, we will be subject to corporate-level income tax, which would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

We intend to continue to qualify as a RIC under the Code. As a RIC we do not have to pay federal income taxes on our income (including
realized gains) that is distributed to our stockholders, provided that we satisfy certain distribution and other requirements. Accordingly, we are not permitted under accounting rules to establish reserves for taxes on our unrealized capital gains.
If we fail to qualify for RIC status in any year, to the extent that we had unrealized gains, we would have to establish reserves for taxes, which would reduce our net asset value and the amount potentially available for distribution. In addition,
if we, as a RIC, were to decide to make a deemed distribution of net realized capital gains and retain the net realized capital gains, we would have to establish appropriate reserves for taxes that we would have to pay on behalf of stockholders. It
is possible that establishing reserves for taxes could have a material adverse effect on the value of our common stock. See Tax Matters.

To maintain our qualification as a RIC under the Code, which is required in order for us to distribute our income without being taxed at the corporate level, we must maintain our status as a BDC and meet
certain source-of-income, asset diversification and annual distribution requirements and including:



| |  |  | The annual distribution requirement for a RIC is satisfied if we distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net
short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, on an annual basis. Because we may use debt financing, we are subject to an asset coverage ratio requirement under the 1940 Act and we may be subject to certain
financial covenants under our debt arrangements that could, under certain circumstances, restrict us from making distributions necessary to satisfy the distribution requirement. If we are unable to obtain cash from other sources, we could fail to
qualify for RIC tax treatment and, thus, become subject to corporate-level income tax.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The income source requirement will be satisfied if we obtain at least 90% of our income for each year from dividends, interest, gains from the sale of
stock or securities or similar sources.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The asset diversification requirement will be satisfied if we meet certain asset diversification requirements at the end of each quarter of our taxable
year. To satisfy these requirements, at least 50% of the value of our assets must consist of cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, securities of other RICs, and other acceptable securities; and no more than 25% of the value of our
assets can be invested in the securities, other than U.S. government securities or securities of other RICs, of one issuer, of two or more issuers that are controlled, as determined under applicable Internal Revenue Code rules, by us and that
are engaged in the same or similar or related trades or businesses or of certain qualified publicly traded partnerships. Failure to meet these requirements may result in our having to dispose of certain investments quickly in order to
prevent the loss of RIC status. Because most of our investments will be in private companies, and, therefore, will be relatively illiquid, any such dispositions could be made at disadvantageous prices and could result in substantial losses.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Satisfying these requirements may require us to take actions we would not otherwise take, such as selling
investments at unattractive prices to satisfy diversification, distribution or source of income requirements. In addition, while we are authorized to borrow funds in order to make distributions, under the 1940 Act we are not permitted to make
distributions to stockholders while we have debt obligations or other senior securities

##### Table of Contents

outstanding unless certain asset coverage tests are met. If we fail to qualify as a RIC for any reason and become or remain subject to corporate-level income tax, the resulting
corporate taxes could substantially reduce our net assets, the amount of income available for distribution and the amount of our distributions. Such a failure would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial
conditions, and thus, our stockholders.

RISKS RELATED TO AN
INVESTMENT IN OUR SECURITIES

Our common stock price may be volatile and may
fluctuate substantially.

As with any stock, the price of our common stock will fluctuate with market conditions and other
factors. Our common stock is intended for long-term investors and should not be treated as a trading vehicle. Shares of closed-end management investment companies, which are structured similarly to us, frequently trade at a discount from their net
asset value. Our shares may trade at a price that is less than the offering price. This risk may be greater for investors who sell their shares in a relatively short period of time after completion of the offering.

The market price and liquidity of the market for our common shares may be significantly affected by numerous factors, some of which are
beyond our control and may not be directly related to our operating performance. These factors include:



| |  |  | significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of BDCs or other companies in the sector in which we operate, which are not
necessarily related to the operating performance of these companies;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in regulatory policies or tax guidelines, particularly with respect to RICs or BDCs;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | loss of RIC status;
| | - |  | -------------------



| |  |  | changes in earnings or variations in operating results;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in the value of our portfolio of investments;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any shortfall in revenue or net income or any increase in losses from levels expected by investors or securities analysts;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | departure of key personnel from our investment adviser;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | operating performance of companies comparable to us;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | general economic trends and other external factors; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | loss of a major funding source.
| | - |  | -------------------------------

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

The shares of our common stock beneficially owned by our principal stockholders are generally available for resale, subject to the
provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the availability of such common stock for sale, could adversely affect the prevailing market prices for our common stock. If this
occurs and continues, it could impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of securities should we desire to do so.

Certain provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could deter takeover attempts and have an
adverse impact on the price of our common stock.

The Delaware General Corporation Law, our certificate of incorporation
and our bylaws contain provisions that may have the effect of discouraging a third party from making an acquisition proposal for us. We have also



48

##### Table of Contents

adopted measures that may make it difficult for a third party to obtain control of us, including provisions of our articles of incorporation dividing our board of directors into three classes
with the term of one class expiring at each annual meeting of stockholders. These anti-takeover provisions may inhibit a change in control in circumstances that could give the holders of our common stock the opportunity to realize a premium over the
market price of our common stock.

Our common stock may trade below its net asset value per share, which limits our ability to raise
additional equity capital.

If our common stock is trading below its net asset value per share, we will generally not be
able to issue additional shares of our common stock at its market price without first obtaining the approval for such issuance from our stockholders and our independent directors. Shares of BDCs, including shares of our common stock, have traded at
discounts to their net asset values. As of December 31, 2012, our net asset value per share was $13.20. The last reported sale price of a share of our common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on March 1, 2013 was $15.45. At our
Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 7, 2012, our stockholders approved a proposal authorizing us to sell up to 25% of our common stock at a price below our then-current net asset value per share, subject to approval by our board of directors
for the offering. The authorization expires on the earlier of June 7, 2013 and the date of our 2013 Annual Meeting of Stock holders, which is expected to be held in June 2013. Our stockholders also approved a proposal to authorize us to offer
and issue debt with warrants or debt convertible into shares of our common stock at an exercise or conversion price that, at the time such warrants or convertible debt are issued, will not be less than the market value per share but may be below our
then-current net asset value per share. If our common stock trades below net asset value, the higher the cost of equity capital may result in it being unattractive to raise new equity, which may limit our ability to grow. The risk of trading below
net asset value is separate and distinct from the risk that our net asset value per share may decline. We cannot predict whether shares of our common stock will trade above, at or below our net asset value.

The net asset value per share of our common stock may be diluted if we sell shares of our common stock in one or more offerings at prices below the
then current net asset value per share of our common stock or securities to subscribe for or convertible into shares of our common stock.

At our Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 7, 2012, our stockholders approved a proposal authorizing us to sell up to 25% of our common stock at a price below the Companys net asset value
per share, subject to approval by our board of directors of the offering. If we were to issue shares at a price below net asset value, such sales would result in an immediate dilution to existing common stockholders, which would include a reduction
in the net asset value per share as a result of the issuance. This dilution would also include a proportionately greater decrease in a stockholders interest in our earnings and assets and voting interest in us than the increase in our assets
resulting from such issuance.

In addition, at our 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders authorized us to
offer and issue debt with warrants or debt convertible into shares of our common stock at an exercise or conversion price that, at the time such warrants or convertible debt are issued, will not be less than the market value per share but may be
below our then current net asset value. Such authorization expires on the earlier of the one year anniversary of the date of the Annual Meeting and the date of our 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Any decision to sell shares of our common stock below its then current net asset value per share or securities to subscribe for or
convert into shares of our common stock would be subject to the determination by our board of directors that such issuance is in our and our stockholders best interests.

If we were to sell shares of our common stock below its then current net asset value per share, such sales would result in an immediate dilution to the net asset value per share of our common stock. This
dilution would occur as a result of the sale of shares at a price below the then current net asset value per share of our common stock and a proportionately greater decrease in the stockholders interest in our earnings and assets and their



49

##### Table of Contents

voting interest in us than the increase in our assets resulting from such issuance. Because the number of shares of common stock that could be so issued and the timing of any issuance is not
currently known, the actual dilutive effect cannot be predicted.

In addition, if we issue warrants or securities to subscribe
for or convert into shares of our common stock, subject to certain limitations, the exercise or conversion price per share could be less than net asset value per share at the time of exercise or conversion (including through the operation of
anti-dilution protections). Because we would incur expenses in connection with any issuance of such securities, such issuance could result in a dilution of the net asset value per share at the time of exercise or conversion. This dilution would
include reduction in net asset value per share as a result of the proportionately greater decrease in the stockholders interest in our earnings and assets and their voting interest than the increase in our assets resulting from such issuance.

Further, if our current stockholders do not purchase any shares to maintain their percentage interest, regardless of whether
such offering is above or below the then current net asset value per share, their voting power will be diluted. For example, if we sell an additional 10% of our common shares at a 5% discount from net asset value, a stockholder who does not
participate in that offering for its proportionate interest will suffer net asset value dilution of up to 0.5% or $5 per $1000 of net asset value. For additional information and hypothetical examples of these risks, see Sale of Common Stock
Below Net Asset Value and the prospectus supplement pursuant to which such sale is made.

We incur significant costs as a result of
being a publicly traded company.

As a publicly traded company, we incur legal, accounting and other expenses, including
costs associated with the periodic reporting requirements applicable to a company whose securities are registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as well as additional corporate governance requirements,
including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and other rules implemented by the SEC.

If we issue preferred stock, debt
securities or convertible debt securities, the net asset value and market value of our common stock may become more volatile.

We cannot assure you that the issuance of preferred stock and/or debt securities would result in a higher yield or return to the holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, debt
securities or convertible debt would likely cause the net asset value and market value of our common stock to become more volatile. If the dividend rate on the preferred stock, or the interest rate on the debt securities, were to approach the net
rate of return on our investment portfolio, the benefit of leverage to the holders of our common stock would be reduced. If the dividend rate on the preferred stock, or the interest rate on the debt securities, were to exceed the net rate of return
on our portfolio, the use of leverage would result in a lower rate of return to the holders of common stock than if we had not issued the preferred stock or debt securities. Any decline in the net asset value of our investment would be borne
entirely by the holders of our common stock. Therefore, if the market value of our portfolio were to decline, the leverage would result in a greater decrease in net asset value to the holders of our common stock than if we were not leveraged through
the issuance of preferred stock. This decline in net asset value would also tend to cause a greater decline in the market price for our common stock.

There is also a risk that, in the event of a sharp decline in the value of our net assets, we would be in danger of failing to maintain required asset coverage ratios which may be required by the
preferred stock, debt securities, convertible debt or units or of a downgrade in the ratings of the preferred stock, debt securities, convertible debt or units or our current investment income might not be sufficient to meet the dividend
requirements on the preferred stock or the interest payments on the debt securities. If we do not maintain our required asset coverage ratios, we may not be permitted to declare dividends. In order to counteract such an event, we might need to
liquidate investments in order to fund redemption of some or all of the preferred stock,

##### Table of Contents

debt securities or convertible debt. In addition, we would pay (and the holders of our common stock would bear) all costs and expenses relating to the issuance and ongoing maintenance of the
preferred stock, debt securities, convertible debt or any combination of these securities. Holders of preferred stock, debt securities or convertible debt may have different interests than holders of common stock and may at times have
disproportionate influence over our affairs.

Holders of any preferred stock that we may issue will have the right to elect members of the
board of directors and have class voting rights on certain matters.

The 1940 Act requires that holders of shares of
preferred stock must be entitled as a class to elect two directors at all times and to elect a majority of the directors if dividends on such preferred stock are in arrears by two years or more, until such arrearage is eliminated. In addition,
certain matters under the 1940 Act require the separate vote of the holders of any issued and outstanding preferred stock, including changes in fundamental investment restrictions and conversion to open-end status and, accordingly, preferred
stockholders could veto any such changes. Restrictions imposed on the declarations and payment of dividends or other distributions to the holders of our common stock and preferred stock, both by the 1940 Act and by requirements imposed by rating
agencies, might impair our ability to maintain our qualification as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Your interest in us may be
diluted if you do not fully exercise your subscription rights in any rights offering. In addition, if the subscription price is less than our net asset value per share, then you will experience an immediate dilution of the aggregate net asset value
of your shares.

In the event we issue subscription rights, stockholders who do not fully exercise their subscription
rights should expect that they will, at the completion of a rights offering pursuant to this prospectus, own a smaller proportional interest in us than would otherwise be the case if they fully exercised their rights. We cannot state precisely the
amount of any such dilution in share ownership because we do not know at this time what proportion of the shares will be purchased as a result of such rights offering.

In addition, if the subscription price is less than the net asset value per share of our common stock, then our stockholders would experience an immediate dilution of the aggregate net asset value of
their shares as a result of the offering. The amount of any decrease in net asset value is not predictable because it is not known at this time what the subscription price and net asset value per share will be on the expiration date of a rights
offering or what proportion of the shares will be purchased as a result of such rights offering. Such dilution could be substantial.

The
trading market or market value of our publicly issued debt securities may fluctuate.

Our publicly issued debt securities
may or may not have an established trading market. We cannot assure you that a trading market for our publicly issued debt securities will ever develop or be maintained if developed. In addition to our creditworthiness, many factors may materially
adversely affect the trading market for, and market value of, our publicly issued debt securities. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:



| |  |  | the time remaining to the maturity of these debt securities;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the outstanding principal amount of debt securities with terms identical to these debt securities;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the ratings assigned by national statistical ratings agencies;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the general economic environment;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | the supply of debt securities trading in the secondary market, if any;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the redemption or repayment features, if any, of these debt securities;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the level, direction and volatility of market interest rates generally; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | market rates of interest higher or lower than rates borne by the debt securities.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

You should also be aware that there may be a limited number of buyers when you decide to
sell your debt securities. This too may materially adversely affect the market value of the debt securities or the trading market for the debt securities.

Terms relating to redemption may materially adversely affect your return on any debt securities that we may issue.

If your debt securities are redeemable at our option, we may choose to redeem your debt securities at times when prevailing interest rates are lower than the interest rate paid on your debt securities. In
addition, if your debt securities are subject to mandatory redemption, we may be required to redeem your debt securities also at times when prevailing interest rates are lower than the interest rate paid on your debt securities. In this
circumstance, you may not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as your debt securities being redeemed.

Our credit ratings may not reflect all risks of an investment in our debt securities.

Our credit ratings are an assessment by third parties of our ability to pay our obligations. Consequently, real or anticipated changes in our credit ratings will generally affect the market value of our
debt securities. Our credit ratings, however, may not reflect the potential impact of risks related to market conditions generally or other factors discussed above on the market value of or trading market for the publicly issued debt securities.

Stock Performance Graph

This graph compares the return on our common stock with that of the Standard & Poors 500 Stock Index and the Russell 2000
Financial Services Index, for the period from April 21, 2010 (initial public offering) through December 31, 2012. The graph assumes that, on April 21, 2010, a person invested $100 in each of our common stock, the S&P 500 Index,
and the Russell 2000 Financial Services Index. The graph measures total stockholder return, which takes into account both changes in stock price and dividends. It assumes that dividends paid are invested in like securities.

necessarily indicative of future stock price performance.

Sales of unregistered securities

On April 20, 2010, in anticipation of completing our initial public offering and formally commencing principal operations, we entered
into a purchase and sale agreement with THL Credit Opportunities, L.P. and THL Credit Partners BDC Holdings, L.P. (BDC Holdings), to effectuate the sale by THL Credit Opportunities, L.P. to us of certain securities valued at $62,107,449,
as determined by our board of directors, and on the same day issued 4,140,496 shares of common stock to BDC Holdings valued at $15.00 per share pursuant to such agreement in exchange for the aforementioned securities.

On April 21, 2010 concurrent with our initial public offering, we sold 6,307,692 share of its common stock to BDC Holdings at $13.00
per share that was not subject to an underwriting discount and commission.

We issued a total of 2 shares, 304,093 shares and
124,219 shares of common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The issuance was not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. The
aggregate price for the shares of common stock issued under the dividend reinvestment plan was $26, $4,048,609 and $1,572,685 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Dividends

We have elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to maintain our status as a
regulated investment company, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income. To avoid a 4% excise tax on undistributed earnings, we are required to distribute each calendar year the sum of (i) 98% of our
ordinary income for such calendar year (ii) 98.2% of our net capital gains for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year (iii) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years and on which we paid no
federal income tax. We intend to make distributions to stockholders on a quarterly basis of substantially all of our net investment income. Although we intend to make distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually, out of
assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment. In addition, the extent and timing of special dividends, if any, will be determined by our board of directors and will largely
be driven by portfolio specific events and tax considerations at the time.

In addition, we may be limited in our ability to
make distributions due to the BDC asset coverage test for borrowings applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act.

The
following table summarizes our dividends declared and paid or to be paid on all shares:



|                  |  |                    |  |                    |  |

On December 20, 2012, our board of directors declared a special dividend of $0.05 per share, which
was paid on January 28, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 31, 2012.

On
February 27, 2013, our board of directors declared a dividend of $0.33 per share, payable on March 29, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 15, 2013.

We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of
these distributions from time to time. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of our status as a regulated investment company. We cannot assure
stockholders that they will receive any distributions at a particular level.

We maintain an opt in dividend
reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, unless stockholders specifically elect to have their dividends automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, stockholders will receive all such dividends in cash. With
respect to our dividends and distributions paid to stockholders during the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, dividends reinvested pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan totaled $26 and $4,048,609, respectively.

Under the terms of our dividend reinvestment plan, dividends will primarily be paid in newly issued shares of common stock. However, we
reserve the right to purchase shares in the open market in connection with the



55

implementation of the plan. This feature of the plan means that, under certain circumstances, we may issue shares of our common stock at a price below net asset value per share, which could cause
our stockholders to experience dilution.

Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated profits and earnings would be
treated first as a return of capital to the extent of the stockholders tax basis, and any remaining distributions would be treated as a capital gain. The determination of the tax attributes of our distributions will be made annually as of the
end of our fiscal year based upon our taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. Therefore, a determination made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of our distributions for a
full year. Each year, a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the source of the distribution will be sent to our U.S. stockholders. Our board of directors presently intends to declare and pay quarterly dividends. Our ability to pay dividends could
be affected by future business performance, liquidity, capital needs, alternative investment opportunities and loan covenants.

The tax character of distributions declared and paid in 2012 represented $28.5 million from ordinary income, $0.9 million from capital
gains and $0 from tax return of capital. Generally accepted accounting principles require adjustments to certain components of net assets to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These adjustments have no affect on net
asset value per share. Permanent differences between financial and tax reporting at December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Overview

THL Credit, Inc. was organized as a Delaware corporation on
May 26, 2009 and initially funded on July 23, 2009. We commenced principal operations on April 21, 2010. Our investment objective is to generate both

current income and capital appreciation, primarily through the origination of privately negotiated investments in debt and equity securities in middle market companies.

We are a direct lender to middle-market companies and invest in subordinated, or mezzanine, debt and second lien secured debt, which may
include an associated equity component such as warrants, preferred stock or other similar securities. We may also selectively invest in first lien secured loans that generally have structures with higher interest rates, which include unitranche
investments, or loan structures that combine characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured as well as second lien and subordinated loans. In certain instances we will also make direct equity investments, including equity investments into
or through funds, and we may also selectively invest in more broadly syndicated first lien secured loans from time to time.

We are an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development
company, or BDC, under the 1940 Act. As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. For instance, we generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in qualifying assets, including securities of
private or thinly traded public U.S. companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S. Government securities and high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less.

As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than qualifying assets specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying
assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in eligible portfolio companies. Under the relevant SEC rules, the term eligible portfolio company includes all private companies, companies
whose securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, and certain public companies that have listed their securities on a national securities exchange and have a market capitalization of less than $250 million, in each case organized in
the United States.

On April 21, 2010, we completed our initial public offering, formally commencing principal
operations, and sold 9,000,000 shares of our common stock through a group of underwriters at a price of $13.00 per share, less an underwriting discount and commissions totaling $0.8125 per share. Concurrently, we sold 6,307,692 shares of our
common stock to THL Credit Partners BDC Holdings, L.P., or BDC Holdings, at $13.00 per share that was not subject to an underwriting discount and commission. We received $190.7 million of total net proceeds for the aforementioned offerings,
which includes an underwriting discount and offering expenses. Since May 2011, BDC Holdings distributed an aggregate of 2.8 million shares of our common stock held by BDC Holdings to its partners. As of December 31, 2012, BDC Holdings owns
15.4% of our common stock.

On September 25, 2012, we closed on a public equity offering selling 6,095,000 shares of our
common stock through a group of underwriters at a price of $14.09 per share, less an underwriting discount and offering expenses, and received $81.7 million in proceeds.

We have elected to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Code. To qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income
and asset diversification requirements. Pursuant to these elections, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level income taxes on any income we distribute to our stockholders.

Portfolio Composition and Investment Activity

Portfolio Composition

We completed the year ended December 31, 2012 with $394.3 million (at fair value), which represents a $127.3
million, or 47.7%, increase from the $267.0 million (at fair value) as of December 31, 2011. We also increased our portfolio to thirty-four companies, including THL Credit Greenway Fund LLC, or Greenway, as of December 31, 2012, from
twenty-four companies, including Greenway, as of December 31, 2011.

At December 31, 2012, our average portfolio company investment, exclusive of Greenway,
at amortized cost and fair value was approximately $11.9 million and $11.9 million, respectively and our largest portfolio company investment by amortized cost and fair value was approximately $36.1 million and $36.1 million, respectively. At
December 31, 2011, our average portfolio company investment at amortized cost and fair value was approximately $11.4 million and $11.6 million, respectively and our largest portfolio company investment by amortized cost and fair value was
approximately $18.4 million and $19.4 million, respectively.

At December 31, 2012, 43.3% of our debt investments bore
interest based on floating rates (subject to interest rate floors), such as LIBOR, and 56.7% bore interest at fixed rates. At December 31, 2011, 40.0% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates (subject to interest rate
floors), such as LIBOR, and 60.0% bore interest at fixed rates.

The weighted average yield of the debt and income-producing
investments in our portfolio at their current cost was 13.9% at December 31, 2012 as compared to 14.0% at December 31, 2011. The weighted average yield on our debt securities at their current cost was 13.7% at December 31, 2012 as
compared to 13.8% at December 31, 2011. Yields are computed using interest rates and dividend yields as of the balance sheet date and include amortization of upfront loan origination fees, original issue discount and market premium or discount.
Yields exclude common equity investments, preferred equity investments, and cash and cash equivalents.

Our portfolio
companies, in which we have debt investments, currently have an average EBITDA of approximately $24 million, excluding one portfolio company with EBITDA levels not representative of a typical portfolio company, based on the latest available
financial information provided by the portfolio companies. Our weighted average attachment point in the capital structure of our portfolio companies is approximately 3.8 times EBITDA based on the latest available financial information.

|(a) | Investments in
broadly syndicated first lien secured term loans in five companies made for short-term investment purposes.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(b) | For the year ended
December 31, 2012, these proceeds included $2.6 million of prepayment premiums.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(c) | For the year ended December 31, 2011, these proceeds included $1.1 million of prepayment premiums.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The frequency or volume of any prepayments may fluctuate significantly from period to period. The increase between the
December 31, 2012 and 2011 amounts are a result of an increase in prepayments resulting from the performance of certain portfolio companies and the interest rate environment.

Our level of investment activity can vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and
equity capital available to middle market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.

Investment Risk

The value of our investments will generally fluctuate with, among other things, changes in prevailing interest rates, federal tax rates,
counterparty risk, general economic conditions, the condition of certain financial markets, developments or trends in any particular industry and the financial condition of the issuer. During periods of limited liquidity and higher price volatility,
our ability to dispose of investments at a price and time that we deem advantageous may be impaired.

##### Table of Contents

Lower-quality debt securities involve greater risk of default or price changes due to
changes in the credit quality of the issuer. The value of lower-quality debt securities often fluctuates in response to company, political, or economic developments and can decline significantly over short periods of time or during periods of
general or regional economic difficulty. Lower-quality debt securities can be thinly traded or have restrictions on resale, making them difficult to sell at an acceptable price. The default rate for lower-quality debt securities is likely to be
higher during economic recessions or periods of high interest rates.

Investment in Funds

We do not have the ability to redeem our investment in funds but distributions are expected to be received until the dissolution of the
funds, which is anticipated to be between 2013 and 2021, as the underlying investments are expected to be liquidated.

Greenway

On January 14, 2011, THL Credit Greenway Fund LLC was formed as a Delaware limited liability
company. Greenway is a portfolio company of ours. Greenway is a closed-end investment fund which provides for no liquidity or redemption options and is not readily marketable. Greenway operates under a limited liability agreement dated
January 19, 2011 (the Agreement). Greenway will continue in existence until January 14, 2021, subject to earlier termination pursuant to certain terms of the Agreement. The term may also be extended for up to three
additional one-year periods pursuant to certain terms of the Agreement. Greenway has a two year investment period.

Greenway
has $150.0 million of capital committed by affiliates of a single institutional investor, and is managed by us through the investment professionals that serve on our investment committee. Our capital commitment to Greenway is $0.02 million. As of
December 31, 2012, all of the capital had been called by Greenway. As of December 31, 2011, $0.01 million had been called by Greenway. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the value of our interest in Greenway was $0.01
million and $0.01 million, respectively, and is reflected in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

As manager of
Greenway, we act as the investment adviser to Greenway and are entitled to receive certain fees. As a result, Greenway is classified as an affiliate of ours. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 we earned $2.6 million and $1.8 million
in fees related to Greenway, respectively, which are included in other income from non-controlled, affiliated investment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $0.4 million and $0.4
million of fees related to Greenway, respectively, were included in Due from affiliate on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Greenway invests in securities similar to those of ours pursuant to investment and allocation guidelines which address, among other things, the size of the borrowers, the types of transactions and the
concentration and investment ratio amongst Greenway and us. However, we have the discretion to invest in other securities.

LCP Capital
Fund LLC

We have invested in a membership interest of LCP Capital Fund LLC, or LCP, a private investment company that
was organized to participate in investment opportunities that arise when a special purpose entity, or SPE, or sponsor thereof, needs to raise capital to achieve ratings, regulatory, accounting, tax, or other objectives. LCP is a closed investment
vehicle which provides for no liquidity or redemption options and is not readily marketable. LCP is managed by an unaffiliated third party. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had contributed $12.0 million of
capital in the form of membership interests in LCP, which is invested in an underlying SPE referred to as Series 2005-01. On May 1, 2012, we received $3.6 million in connection with a reduction in its commitment pursuant to the
governing documents, which is related to the notional amount of the underlying credit default swaps. Our exposure is limited to the amount of its remaining contributed capital. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the value of
our interest in LCP was $8.4 million and $12.0 million, respectively, and is reflected in the Consolidated Schedules of Investments.

##### Table of Contents

Our contributed capital in LCP is maintained in a collateral account held by a third-party
custodian, who is neither affiliated with us nor with LCP, and acts as collateral on certain credit default swaps for the Series 2005-01 for which LCP receives fixed premium payments throughout the year, adjusted for expenses incurred by LCP. The
SPE purchases assets on a non-recourse basis and LCP agrees to reimburse the SPE up to a specified amount for potential losses. LCP holds the contributed cash invested for an SPE transaction in a segregated account that secures the payment
obligation of LCP. We expect to receive distributions from LCP on a quarterly basis. Such distributions are reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Operations as interest income in the period earned. LCP has a remaining life of 18 years;
however, it is currently expected that Series 2005-01 will terminate on February 15, 2015, if not extended prior to this date pursuant to the terms of Series 2005-1 SPE. Regardless of the date of dissolution, LCP has the right to receive
amounts held in the collateral account if there is an event of default under LCPs operative agreements. LCP may have other series which will have investments in other SPEs to which we will not be exposed.

CLO residual interest

Interest income from our CLO residual interest is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity using anticipated cash flows with any remaining amount recorded to the cost
basis of the investment. We monitor the anticipated cash flows from its CLO residual interest and will adjust its effective yield periodically.

Investment in Tax Receivable Agreement Payment Rights

In June 2012, we invested in a TRA that entitles us to certain payment rights, or TRA Payment Rights, from Duff & Phelps Corporation, or Duff & Phelps. The TRA transfers the economic
value of certain tax deductions, or tax benefits, taken by Duff & Phelps to us and entitles us to a stream of payments to be received. The TRA payment right is, in effect, a subordinated claim on the issuing company which can be valued
based on the credit risk of the issuer, which includes projected future earnings, the liquidity of the underlying payment right, risk of tax law changes, the effective tax rate and any other factors which might impact the value of the payment right.

Through the TRA, we are entitled to receive an annual tax benefit payment based upon 85% of the savings from certain
deductions along with interest. The payments that we are entitled to receive result from cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state or local income tax that Duff & Phelps realizes (i) from the tax savings derived from the goodwill
and other intangibles created in connection with the Duff & Phelps initial public offering (ii) from other income tax deductions. These tax benefit payments will continue until the relevant deductions are fully utilized, which is
projected to be 17 years. Pursuant to the TRA, we maintain the right to enforce Duff & Phelps payment obligations as a transferee of the TRA contract. If Duff & Phelps chooses to pre-pay and terminate the TRA, we will be entitled
to the present value of the expected future TRA payments. If Duff & Phelps breaches any material obligation than all obligations are accelerated and calculated as if an early termination occurred. Failure to make a payment is a breach of a
material obligation if the failure occurs for more than three months.

The projected annual tax benefit payment will be
accrued on a quarterly basis and paid annually. The payment will be allocated between a reduction in the cost basis of the investment and interest income based upon an amortization schedule. Based upon the characteristics of the investment, we have
chosen to categorize the investment in the TRA payment rights as investment in payment rights in the fair value hierarchy. The valuation will be based principally on a discounted cash flow analysis of projected future cash flow streams assuming an
appropriate discount rate, which will among other things consider other transactions in the market, the current credit environment, performance of Duff & Phelps and the length of the remaining payment stream. During the year ended
December 31, 2012, we recognized $1.2 million of income in connection with the TRA payment rights. As of December 31, 2012, the value of our interest in the TRA was $12.2 million and is reflected in the Consolidated Schedule of
Investments.

Asset Quality

We view active portfolio monitoring as a vital part of our investment process. We consider board observation rights, regular dialogue with company management and sponsors, and detailed internally
generated monitoring reports to be critical to our performance. We have developed a monitoring template that promotes compliance with these standards and that is used as a tool by the Advisors investment committee to assess investment
performance relative to plan. In addition, our portfolio companies may rely on us to provide financial and capital market expertise and may view us as a value-added resource.

As part of the monitoring process, the Advisor assesses the risk profile of each of our investments and assigns each investment a score of a 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. Effective March 31, 2012, the Advisor
revised its scoring system in order to categorize, on a more granular level, each investment based upon its performance and may revise the scoring system in the future depending upon the nature of the portfolio. The changes from December 31,
2011, included moving investments with a previous score of a 2 to a new investment performance score of 3 and bifurcating a previous score of 1 between new investment performance scores of 1 and 2 based upon its performance. Overall, there was no
significant change in the risk profile of the portfolio companies between December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 or between March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2012.

The revised investment performance scores, or IPS, are as follows:

1  The portfolio company is performing above our underwriting expectations.

2  The portfolio company is performing as expected at the time of underwriting. All new investments are initially scored a 2.

3  The portfolio company is operating below our underwriting expectations, and requires closer monitoring. The
company may be out of compliance with financial covenants, however, principal or interest payments are generally not past due.

4  The portfolio company is performing materially below our underwriting expectations and returns on our investment are likely to
be impaired. Principal or interest payments may be past due, however, full recovery of principal and interest payments are expected.

5  The portfolio company is performing substantially below expectations and the risk of the investment has increased substantially. The company is in payment default and the principal and
interest payments are not expected to be repaid in full.

For any investment receiving a score of a 3 or lower, our manager
increases its level of focus and prepares regular updates for the investment committee summarizing current operating results, material impending events and recommended actions.

The Advisor monitors and, when appropriate, changes the investment scores assigned to each
investment in our portfolio. In connection with our investment valuation process, the Advisor and board of directors review these investment scores on a quarterly basis. Our average investment score was 2.12 at December 31, 2012. The following
is a distribution of the investment scores of our portfolio companies at December 31, 2012 (in millions):

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more
and/or when it is no longer probable that principal or interest will be collected. However, we may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of December 31, 2012 and
December 31, 2011, we had no loans on non-accrual.

Results of Operations

The principal measure of our financial performance is net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net
investment income (loss), net realized gain (loss), net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and interest rate derivative periodic interest payments, net. Net investment income (loss) is the difference between our income from interest, dividends,
fees and other investment income and our operating expenses. Net realized gain (loss) on investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost. Net unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio. Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on interest rate derivative is the net change in the fair value of the interest rate derivative agreement.
Interest rate derivative periodic interest payments, net are the difference between the proceeds received or the amounts paid on the interest rate derivative.

Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010

Investment Income

We generate revenues primarily in the form of interest on the debt and other income-producing securities we hold. Income-producing securities include investments in funds, investment in payment rights and
collateralized loan obligation, or CLO, residual interest. Our investments in fixed income instruments generally have an expected maturity of five to seven years, and typically bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. Interest on our debt
securities is generally payable quarterly. Payments of principal of our debt investments may be amortized over the stated term of the investment, deferred for several years or due entirely at maturity. In some cases, our debt

##### Table of Contents

instruments and preferred stock investments may defer payments of dividends or pay interest in-kind, or PIK. Any outstanding principal amount of our debt securities and any accrued but unpaid
interest will generally become due at the maturity date. The level of interest income we receive is directly related to the balance of interest-bearing investments multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments. In addition, we may
generate revenue in the form of fees from the management of Greenway, prepayment premiums, commitment, loan origination, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing significant managerial assistance and consulting fees.

The increases in investment income from the respective periods were due to the growth in the overall
investment portfolio, an increase in prepayment premiums and the closing of Greenway in January 2011.

In certain investment
transactions, we may provide advisory services. For services that are separately identifiable and external evidence exists to substantiate fair value, income is recognized as earned. We had no income from advisory services for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of base management fees, an incentive fee, and expenses reimbursable under the
investment management agreement and the allocable portion of overhead under the administration agreement (administrator expenses). The base management fee compensates the Advisor for work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing
and monitoring our investments. Our investment

management agreement and administration agreement provides that we will reimburse the Advisor for costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor for facilities, office equipment and utilities
allocable to the performance by the Advisor of its duties under the agreements, as well as any costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor relating to any administrative or operating services provided by the Advisor to us. We bear all other costs and
expenses of our operations and transactions.

Operating expenses totaled $22.3 million, $16.4 million and $6.3 million for the
years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and consisted of base management fees, incentive fees, administrator expenses, and other expenses including fees related to our credit facility, professional fees, insurance expenses,
directors fees, and other general and administrative expenses. The increase in operating expenses was due primarily to the increase in base management fees, incentive fee, credit facility and excise and income tax provision expenses for the
respective periods.

The base management fees for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 were
$4.9 million, $4.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively, as provided for in the investment management agreement. The incentive fees incurred for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $7.0 million, $4.8 million
and $0 and such amounts include the effect of unrealized appreciation or depreciation of ($0.5) million, $0.8 million and $0, respectively. Approximately $0.4 million of the accrued incentive fee for the year ended December 31, 2011
was related to unrealized appreciation on investments in periods prior to 2011. Such amounts were not material to current or prior periods financial statements. There can be no assurance that such unrealized appreciation or depreciation will
be realized in the future. Accordingly, such fee, as calculated and accrued is currently not, and would not necessarily be, payable under the investment management agreement, and may never be paid based upon the computation of capital gains
incentive fees in subsequent periods. The accrued incentive fee related to capital gains may differ from the actual incentive fee that may be paid to the Advisor depending on whether we are ultimately able to generate a net realized capital gain.
The increase in base management fees and incentive fee expenses for the respective periods is due to the growth in both the portfolio and net investment income.

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, fees and expenses related to our credit facility, including amortization of deferred financing costs, were $4.1 million, $1.7 million and $0,
respectively. Borrowings under the credit facility were $189.9 million and $28.5 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. Repayments under the credit facility were $144.9 million and $23.5 million, respectively,
for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were $50.0 million and $5.0 million of borrowings outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.2110% and 3.8125%,
respectively. The increase in expenses related to the credit facility is due principally to the timing of the facility closing in March 2011, the level of borrowings in connection with investment activity and amortization of deferred financing
costs.

Administrator expenses for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 totaled $3.2 million,
$2.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Expenses for professional fees, insurance expenses, directors fees, and other general and administrative expense for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 totaled
$3.1 million, $3.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively. The increase in administrator expenses is due principally to additional resources and related costs to support our portfolio growth.

Income tax provision and excise tax for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 totaled $0.6 million ($0.1 million
excise tax and $0.5 million income tax provision), $0.0 million ($0.0 excise tax) and $0, respectively. The increase in excise taxes is due to the retention of taxable income being higher during the current year. The increase in current year income
tax provision is due to our consolidated taxable subsidiary receiving tax distributions from an underlying portfolio company for the payment of the current years tax obligation.

We expect certain of our operating expenses, including administrator expenses, professional fees and other general and administrative
expenses to decline as a percentage of our total assets during periods of growth and increase as a percentage of our total assets during periods of asset declines.

Net Investment Income

Net investment income was $30.2 million, or $1.38 per common share based on a weighted average of 21,852,197 common shares outstanding for
the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $21.0 million, or $1.04 per common share based on a weighted average of 20,167,092 common shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2011 and $6.0 million, or $0.31 per common share
based on a weighted average of 19,762,756 common shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The increase
in net investment income is primarily attributable to the growth in the portfolio and an increase in prepayment activity.

Net Realized Gains and Losses on Investments

We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, using the specific identification method, without
regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized.

We recognized realized gains on our portfolio
company investments during the year ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 of $0.4 million, $1.0 million and $0, respectively.

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation of Investments

Net change in
unrealized appreciation primarily reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal or previously recorded appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.

Net change in unrealized appreciation on investments totaled ($1.2) million, $2.1 million and $1.8 million for the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The change in unrealized appreciation on our investments was driven primarily by the reversal of previously unrealized appreciation on investments, changes in the capital market conditions, and in
the financial performance of certain portfolio companies.

The following shows the breakdown in the changes in unrealized
appreciation of investments for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (in millions):

Provision for taxes on unrealized appreciation on investments

Certain consolidated subsidiaries of ours are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. These taxable entities are not consolidated
with the Company for income tax purposes and may generate income tax liabilities or assets from temporary differences in the recognition of items for financial reporting and income tax purposes at the subsidiaries. For the years ended
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized a provision for tax on unrealized appreciation of $0.5 million, $0, and $0, respectively, for a consolidated subsidiary. The Company is not subject to income taxes, however, certain
consolidated taxable subsidiaries may be subject to income taxes. The provision relates only to an individual subsidiary of the Company.

Realized and Unrealized Gain (Loss) of Interest Rate Derivative

The interest rate derivative was entered into on May 10, 2012. Unrealized depreciation reflects the value of the interest rate
derivative agreement during the reporting period. Unrealized depreciation on interest rate derivative totaled $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 and was due to capital markets changes impacting interest rate swap spreads.

We measure realized gains or losses on the interest rate derivative based upon the difference between the proceeds received
or the amount paid on the interest rate derivative. We recognized a realized loss for the year ended December 31, 2012 of $0.2 million as interest rate derivative periodic interest payments, net.

Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

Net increase in net assets resulting from operations totaled $27.6 million, or $1.26 per common share based on a weighted average of
21,852,197 common shares for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to $24.1 million, or $1.20 per common share based on a weighted average of 20,167,092 common shares outstanding, for the year ended December 31, 2011 and $7.8
million, or $0.39 per common share based on a weighted average of 19,762,756 common shares outstanding, for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The increase in net assets resulting from operations is due to the continued growth in net investment income, which is a result of growing our portfolio, and an increase in prepayment premiums.

Financial condition, liquidity and capital resources

Cash Flows from Operating and Financing Activities

Our liquidity
and capital resources are derived from our revolving credit agreement, or Revolving Facility, and senior secured term loan credit facility, or Term Loan Facility, and cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments, and income
earned. Our primary use of funds from operations includes investments in portfolio companies, payment of dividends to the holders of our common stock and payments of fees and other operating expenses we incur. We have used, and expect to continue to
use, our borrowings and the proceeds from the turnover in our portfolio and from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. We may raise additional equity or debt capital
through both registered offerings off a shelf registration statement and private offerings of securities, by securitizing a portion of our investments or borrowings.

On September 25, 2012, we received $81.7 million in proceeds, net of offering fees and underwriting discount, from our public equity offering of common stock and used $46.1 million to pay down
outstanding loans on our Revolving Facility.

As of December 31, 2012, we had $50.0 million outstanding under our Term
Loan Facility. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility as of December 31, 2012. The Term Loan Facility had a weighted average interest rate of 4.21%. We borrowed $139.9 million under our Revolving Facility and
$50.0 million under our Term Loan Facility for the year ended December 31, 2012 and repaid $144.9 million funds on our Revolving Facility from proceeds received from the public equity offering, term loan, sales and repayments and
investment income. As of December 31, 2011, we had no borrowings outstanding under our Revolving Facility as we had borrowed and repaid $11.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2011.

Our operating activities used cash of $95.4 million, $87.2 million $83.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and
2010, respectively, primarily in connection with the purchase of portfolio investments. For the years ended December 31, 2012, our financing activities provided cash of $45.0 million from net borrowings and $81.7 million from our common stock
offering, net of offering costs, and used cash of $29.4 million for distributions to stockholders and $2.9 million for the payment of financing costs. For the year

##### Table of Contents

ended December 31, 2011, our financing activities provided cash of $5.0 million from net borrowings and used cash of $19.5 million for distributions to stockholders and $2.5 million for the
payment of financing costs. For the year ended December 31, 2010, our financing activities provided cash of $194.6 from our initial public offering and used cash of $1.4 million for distributions to stockholders.

As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had cash of $4.8 million and $5.6 million, respectively. We had no cash
equivalents as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

We believe cash balances, our Revolving Facility
capacity and any proceeds generated from the sale or pay down of investments provides us with ample liquidity to acquit our pipeline for the coming quarters.

Credit Facility

On May 10, 2012, we entered into an amendment,
or the Amendment, to our Revolving Facility, and entered into a Term Loan Facility, and together with the Revolving Facility, the Facilities, with ING Capital LLC.

The Amendment revised the Revolving Facility, dated March 11, 2011, to (among other things) increase the amount available for borrowing from $125.0 million to $140.0 million; permit the Term Loan
Facility; extend the maturity date from May 2014 to May 2016 (with a one year term out period beginning in May 2015); and change the non-use fee from 1.00% annually if we use 50% or less of the Revolving Facility and 0.50% annually if we use more
than 50% of the Revolving Facility to 1.00% annually if the we use 35% or less of the Revolving Facility and 0.50% annually if we use more than 35% of the Revolving Facility. The Amendment also changes the interest rate of the Revolving Facility
from (a) Eurocurrency loans from LIBOR plus 3.50% to (i) when the facility is more than 35% drawn and the step-down condition is satisfied, LIBOR plus 3.00%, (ii) when the facility is more than 35% drawn and the step-down condition is
not satisfied, LIBOR plus 3.25%, (iii) when the facility is less than or equal to 35% drawn and the step-down condition is satisfied, LIBOR plus 3.25%, and (iv) when the facility is less than or equal to 35% drawn and the step-down
condition is not satisfied, LIBOR plus 3.50% and (b) alternative base rate loans based, or ABR, on the highest rate of the Prime Rate, Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% or three month LIBOR plus 1.0% per annum to (i) when the facility is
more than 35% drawn and the step-down condition is satisfied, ABR plus 2.00%, (ii) when the facility is more than 35% drawn and the step-down condition is not satisfied, ABR plus 2.25%, (iii) when the facility is less than or equal to 35%
drawn and the step-down condition is satisfied, ABR plus 2.25%, and (iv) when the facility is less than or equal to 35% drawn and the step-down condition is not satisfied, ABR plus 2.50%.

The Term Loan Facility provides us with a $50.0 million senior secured term loan, or Term Loan. The Term Loan expires in May 2017, bears
interest at LIBOR plus 4.00% (with no LIBOR Floor) and has substantially similar terms to our existing Revolving Facility (as amended by the Amendment).

Each of the Facilities includes an accordion feature permitting us to expand the Facilities, if certain conditions are satisfied; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of the Facilities,
collectively, is capped at $225.0 million.

The Facilities generally require payment of interest on a quarterly basis for
ABR loans, and at the end of the applicable interest period for Eurocurrency loans bearing interest at LIBOR. All outstanding principal is due upon each maturity date. The Facilities also require a mandatory prepayment of interest and principal upon
certain customary triggering events (including, without limitation, the disposition of assets or the issuance of certain securities).

Borrowings under the Facilities are subject to, among other things, a minimum borrowing/collateral base. The Facilities have certain collateral requirements and/or financial covenants, including covenants
related to: (a) limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, (b) limitations on certain investments, (c) limitations on certain restricted payments, (d) limitations on the creation or existence of
agreements that

##### Table of Contents

prohibit liens on certain properties of ours and our subsidiaries, and (e) compliance with certain financial maintenance standards including (i) minimum stockholders equity,
(ii) a ratio of total assets (less total liabilities not represented by senior securities) to the aggregate amount of senior securities representing indebtedness, of us and our subsidiaries, of not less than 2.25:1.0, (iii) minimum
liquidity, (iv) minimum net worth, and (v) a consolidated interest coverage ratio. In addition to the financial maintenance standards, described in the preceding sentence, borrowings under the Facilities (and the incurrence of certain
other permitted debt) are subject to compliance with a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to different types of assets in our portfolio.

The Facilities documents also include default provisions such as the failure to make timely payments under the Facilities, the occurrence of a change in control, and the failure by us to materially
perform under the operative agreements governing the Facilities, which, if not complied with, could, at the option of the lenders under the Facilities, accelerate repayment under the Facilities, thereby materially and adversely affecting our
liquidity, financial condition and results of operations. Each loan originated under the Revolving Facility is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. We cannot be assured that we will be able to borrow funds under the Revolving Facility
at any particular time or at all. We are currently in compliance with all financial covenants under the Facilities.

For the
year ended December 31, 2012, we borrowed $189.9 million and made $144.9 million of repayments under the Facilities. For the year ended December 31, 2011, we borrowed $28.5 million and made $23.5 million of repayments under the Facilities.
As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were $50.0 million and $5.0 million of borrowings outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.2110% and 3.8125%, respectively. Interest expense and related fees of $3.1 million
and $1.0 million were incurred in connection with the Facilities during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain exceptions, the Company is only allowed to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 200% after such borrowing. The
asset coverage as of December 31, 2012 is in excess of 200%.

Interest Rate Derivative

On May 10, 2012, we entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement, or swap agreement, with ING Capital Markets, LLC on its
Term Loan Borrowing. Under the swap agreement, with a notional value of $50 million, we pay a fixed rate of 1.1425% and receive a floating rate based upon the current three-month LIBOR rate. We entered into the swap agreement to manage interest
rate risk and not for speculative purposes.

We use an income approach using a discounted cash flow methodology to value the
interest rate derivative. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flows methodology include the forward interest rate yield curves in effect as of the end of the measurement period and an evaluation of the counterpartys credit risk.

We record the change in valuation of the swap agreement in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of each measurement
period. When the quarterly swap amounts are paid or received under the swap agreement, the amounts are recorded as a realized gain (loss).

For the year ended December 31, 2012, we recognized $0.2 million of realized loss from the swap agreement, which is reflected as interest rate derivative periodic interest payments, net in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, we recognized $1.1 million of net
unrealized depreciation from the swap agreement, which is listed under unrealized depreciation on interest rate derivative in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2012, our fair value of the swap agreement is $1.1
million, which is listed as an interest rate derivative liability on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Other

On January 16, 2013, we withdrew our application with the Investment Division of the U.S. Small Business Administration, or SBA, to
license a small business investment company, or SBIC. We may consider pursuing a new application for a license from the SBA in the future.

As of December 31, 2012, the THL Credit SBIC, LP, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, had three investments with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $28.9 million and fair market value of
$28.1 million. As of December 31, 2011, the SBIC LP had made one investment with an aggregate amortized cost basis and fair market value of $12.8 million. On February 22, 2013, the investments held in the SBIC, LP were transferred to the
Company.

Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we, or the Advisor, may become party to legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings related to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our
portfolio companies. Neither we, nor the Advisor, are currently subject to any material legal proceedings.

Unfunded
commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies are not reflected on our balance sheet. Our unfunded commitments may be significant from time to time. These commitments will be subject to the same underwriting and ongoing portfolio maintenance
as are the on-balance sheet financial instruments that we hold. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We intend to use cash flow from normal
and early principal repayments and proceeds from borrowings and offerings to fund these commitments.

As of December 31,
2012 and December 31, 2011, we have the following unfunded commitments to portfolio companies (in millions):

Dividends

We have elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to maintain our status as a regulated investment company, we are required to to distribute at least
90% of our investment company taxable income. To avoid a 4% excise tax on undistributed earnings, we are required to distribute each calendar year the sum of (i) 98% of our ordinary income for such calendar year (ii) 98.2% of our net
capital gains for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year (iii) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years and on which we paid no federal income tax. We intend to make distributions to stockholders
on a quarterly basis of substantially all of our net investment income. Although we intend to make distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually, out of assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future
decide to retain such capital gains for investment. In addition, the extent and timing of special dividends, if any, will be determined by our board of directors and will largely be driven by portfolio specific events and tax considerations at the
time.

In addition, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions due to the BDC asset coverage test for borrowings
applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act.

On December 20, 2012, our board of directors declared a special dividend of $0.05 per share, which
was paid on January 28, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 31, 2012.

On
February 27, 2013, our board of directors declared a dividend of $0.33 per share, payable on March 29, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 15, 2013.

We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of
these distributions from time to time. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of our status as a regulated investment company. We cannot assure
stockholders that they will receive any distributions at a particular level.

We maintain an opt in dividend
reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, unless stockholders specifically elect to have their dividends automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, stockholders will receive all such dividends in cash. With
respect to our dividends and distributions paid to stockholders during the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, dividends reinvested pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan totaled $0 and $4.0 million, respectively.

Under the terms of our dividend reinvestment plan, dividends will primarily be paid in newly issued shares of common stock. However, we
reserve the right to purchase shares in the open market in connection with the implementation of the plan. This feature of the plan means that, under certain circumstances, we may issue shares of our common stock at a price below net asset value per
share, which could cause our stockholders to experience dilution.

Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated
profits and earnings would be treated first as a return of capital to the extent of the stockholders tax basis, and any remaining distributions would be treated as a capital gain. The determination of the tax attributes of our distributions
will be made annually as of the end of our fiscal year based upon our taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. Therefore, a determination made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax
attributes of our distributions for a full year. Each year, a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the source of the distribution will be sent to our U.S. stockholders.

The tax character of distributions declared and paid in 2012 represented $28.5 million from ordinary income, $0.9 million from capital gains and $0 from tax return of capital. Generally accepted
accounting principles require adjustments to certain components of net assets to reflect permanent differences between

financial and tax reporting. These adjustments have no affect on net asset value per share. Permanent differences between financial and tax reporting at December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $0.2
million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Contractual obligations

We have entered into a contract with the Advisor to provide investment advisory services. Payments for investment advisory services under
the investment management agreement in future periods will be equal to (a) an annual base management fee of 1.5% of our gross assets and (b) an incentive fee based on our performance. In addition, under our administration agreement, the
Advisor will be reimbursed for administrative services incurred on our behalf. See description below under Related Party Transactions.

The following table shows our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2012 (in millions):

We entered into an interest rate derivative to manage interest rate risk. We record the change in valuation of the swap agreement in
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of each measurement period. When the quarterly interest rate swap amounts are paid or received under the swap agreement, the amounts are recorded as a realized gain (loss). Further discussion of the interest
rate derivative is included in Note 1 Significant Accounting Policies and Note 7 Interest Rate Derivative in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Off-Balance sheet arrangements

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements, including any risk management of commodity pricing or other hedging practices.

Investment Management and Administration
Agreements

On February 27, 2013, our investment management agreement with the Advisor was re-approved by our
Board of Directors. Under the investment management agreement, the Advisor, subject to the overall supervision of our board of directors, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to us.

The Advisor receives a fee for investment advisory and management services consisting of a base management fee and a two-part incentive
fee.

The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.5% of our gross assets payable quarterly in arrears on a
calendar quarter basis. For purposes of calculating the base management fee, gross assets is determined as the value of our assets without deduction for any liabilities. The base management fee is calculated based on the value of our
gross assets at the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current calendar quarter.

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 we incurred base management fees payable to the Advisor of $4.9 million, $4.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2012
and December 31, 2011, $1.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, was payable to the Advisor.

##### Table of Contents

The incentive fee has two components, ordinary income and capital gains, as follows:

The ordinary income component is calculated, and payable, quarterly in arrears based on our preincentive fee net investment
income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to a cumulative total return requirement and to deferral of non-cash amounts. The preincentive fee net investment income, which is expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net
assets attributable to our common stock, for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, will have a 2.0% (which is 8.0% annualized) hurdle rate (also referred to as minimum income level). Preincentive fee net investment income means
interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence, managerial assistance and consulting fees or other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued
during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under our administration agreement (discussed below), and any interest expense and any dividends paid on any issued and
outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee and any offering expenses and other expenses not charged to operations but excluding certain reversals to the extent such reversals have the effect of reducing previously accrued incentive
fees based on the deferral of non-cash interest. Preincentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with PIK interest and zero coupon
securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in cash. The Advisor receives no incentive fee for any calendar quarter in which our preincentive fee net investment income does not exceed the minimum income level. Subject to the cumulative
total return requirement described below, the Advisor receives 100% of our preincentive fee net investment income for any calendar quarter with respect to that portion of the preincentive net investment income for such quarter, if any, that exceeds
the minimum income level but is less than 2.5% (which is 10.0% annualized) of net assets (also referred to as the catch-up provision) and 20.0% of our preincentive fee net investment income for such calendar quarter, if any, greater than
2.5% (10.0% annualized) of net assets. The foregoing incentive fee is subject to a total return requirement, which provides that no incentive fee in respect of our preincentive fee net investment income is payable except to the extent 20.0% of the
cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations over the then current and 11 preceding calendar quarters exceeds the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid for the 11 preceding quarters. In other words, any ordinary income
incentive fee that is payable in a calendar quarter is limited to the lesser of (i) 20% of the amount by which our preincentive fee net investment income for such calendar quarter exceeds the 2.0% hurdle, subject to the catch-up
provision, and (ii) (x) 20% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the then current and 11 preceding quarters minus (y) the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid for the 11 preceding
calendar quarters. For the foregoing purpose, the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations is the amount, if positive, of the sum of our preincentive fee net investment income, base management fees, realized gains
and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation for the then current and 11 preceding calendar quarters. In addition, the Advisor is not paid the portion of such incentive fee that is attributable to deferred interest until we actually
receive such interest in cash.

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 we incurred $7.4 million, $3.8
million and $0, respectively, of incentive fees related to ordinary income.

The second component of the incentive fee
(capital gains incentive fee) is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment management agreement, as of the termination date). This component is equal to 20.0% of our cumulative
aggregate realized capital gains from inception through the end of that calendar year, computed net of the cumulative aggregate realized capital losses and cumulative aggregate unrealized capital depreciation through the end of such year. The
aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees is subtracted from such capital gains incentive fee calculated. The capital gains incentive fee payable to our Advisor under the investment management agreement as of
December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $0.0 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

As of December 31,
2012, $2.3 million of such incentive fees are currently payable to the Advisor, as $0.6 million of incentive fees incurred by us were generated from deferred interest (i.e. PIK and certain discount accretion) and are not payable until such
amounts are received in cash.

##### Table of Contents

GAAP requires that the incentive fee accrual considers the cumulative aggregate unrealized
capital appreciation or depreciation of investments or other financial instruments, such as an interest rate derivative, in the calculation, as an incentive fee would be payable if such unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation were realized,
even though such unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the fee actually payable under the investment management agreement. For accounting purposes in accordance with GAAP only, in order to
reflect the potential incentive fee that would be payable for a given period as if all unrealized gains or losses were realized, we have accrued incentive fees of ($0.4) million and $0.8 million as of December 31, 2012 and
December 31, 2011, respectively, based upon unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments and the interest rate derivative for that period (in accordance with the terms of the investment management agreement). There can be no assurance
that such unrealized appreciation or depreciation will be realized in the future. Accordingly, such fee, as calculated and accrued would not necessarily be payable under the investment management agreement, and may never be paid based upon the
computation of incentive fees in subsequent periods. Approximately $0.4 million of the accrued incentive fee for the year ended December 31, 2011 was related to unrealized appreciation on investments in periods prior to 2011. Such amounts were
not material to current or to prior periods consolidated financial statements.

We have also entered into an
administration agreement with the Advisor under which the Advisor will provide administrative services to us. Under the administration agreement, the Advisor performs, or oversees the performance of administrative services necessary for our
operation, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records which we are required to maintain and preparing reports to our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, the Advisor assists in determining and
publishing our net asset value, oversees the preparation and filing of our tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and
professional services rendered to us by others. We will reimburse the Advisor for our allocable portion of the costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor for overhead in performance by the Advisor of its duties under the administration agreement
and the investment management agreement, including facilities, office equipment and our allocable portion of cost of compensation and related expenses of our chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs,
as well as any costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor relating to any administrative or operating services provided to us by the Advisor. Such costs are reflected as Administrator expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of
Operations. Under the administration agreement, the Advisor provides, on our behalf, managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which the Company is required to provide such assistance. To the extent that our Advisor outsources any of its
functions, the Company pays the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis without profit to the Advisor.

For the
years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 we incurred administrator expenses of $3.2 million, $2.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively,
was payable to the Advisor.

License Agreement

We and the Advisor have entered into a license agreement with THL Partners under which THL Partners has granted to us and the Advisor a
non-exclusive, personal, revocable worldwide non-transferable license to use the trade name and service mark THL, which is a proprietary mark of THL Partners, for specified purposes in connection with our respective businesses. This license
agreement is royalty-free, which means we are not charged a fee for our use of the trade name and service mark THL. The license agreement is terminable either in its entirety or with respect to us or the Advisor by THL Partners at any time in
its sole discretion upon 60 days prior written notice, and is also terminable with respect to either us or the Advisor by THL Partners in the case of certain events of non-compliance. After the expiration of its first one year term, the entire
license agreement is terminable by either us or the Advisor at our or its sole discretion upon 60 days prior written notice. Upon termination of the license agreement, we and the Advisor must cease to use the name and mark THL, including any
use in our respective legal names, filings, listings and other uses that may require us to withdraw or replace our names and marks. Other than with respect to the limited rights contained in the license agreement, we and the

Due to and from Affiliates

The Advisor paid certain other general and administrative expenses on our behalf. As of December 31, 2011, $0.0 million of expenses
were included in Due to affiliate on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. There were no amounts due to affiliate as of December 31, 2012.

As manager of Greenway, we act as the investment adviser to Greenway and are entitled to receive certain fees. As a result, Greenway is classified as an affiliate of us. As of December 31, 2012 and
December 31, 2011, $0.4 million and $0.4 million of fees related to Greenway, respectively, were included in Due from affiliate on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Managed Funds

Greenway

On January 14, 2011, Greenway was formed as a Delaware
limited liability company. Greenway is a portfolio company of THL Credit, Inc. Greenway is a closed-end investment fund which provides for no liquidity or redemption options and is not readily marketable. Greenway operates under a limited
liability agreement dated January 19, 2011. Greenway will continue in existence until January 14, 2021, subject to earlier termination pursuant to certain terms of the Agreement. The term may also be extended for up to three
additional one-year periods pursuant to certain terms of the Agreement. Greenway has a two year investment period.

Greenway
has $150.0 million of capital committed by affiliates of a single institutional investor, and is managed by THL Credit, Inc. through the investment professionals that serve on our investment committee. Our capital commitment to Greenway is $0.02
million. As of December 31, 2012, all of the capital had been called by Greenway. As of December 31, 2011, $0.1 million had been called by Greenway. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the value of our interest in
Greenway was $0.01 million and $0.01 million, respectively, and is reflected in the Consolidated Schedules of Investments.

As
manager of Greenway, we act as the investment adviser to Greenway and are entitled to receive certain fees. As a result, Greenway is classified as an affiliate of the Company. For the years ended December 31, 2012, and 2011, we earned $2.6
million and $1.8 million in fees related to Greenway, respectively, which are included in other income from non-controlled, affiliated investment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011,
$0.4 and $0.4 million of fees related to Greenway, respectively, were included in Due from affiliate on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Greenway invests in securities similar to those of ours pursuant to investment and allocation guidelines which address, among other things, the size of the borrowers, the types of transactions and the
concentration and investment ratio amongst Greenway and us. However, we have the discretion to invest in other securities.

THL Credit SBIC, LP

On January 16, 2013, we withdrew our application with the SBA to license a SBIC. We may consider pursuing a new application for a license from the SBA in the future.

As of December 31, 2012, the SBIC LP had three investments with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $28.9 million and fair market
value of $28.1 million. As of December 31, 2011, the SBIC LP had made one investment with an aggregate amortized cost basis and fair market value of $12.8 million. On February 22, 2013, the investments held in SBIC, LP were transferred to the

Critical accounting policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial
condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. In
addition to the discussion below, the Companys significant accounting policies are further described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Valuation of Portfolio Investments

As a BDC, we generally invest in
illiquid securities including debt and equity investments of middle-market companies. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued using market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service
or one or more broker-dealers or market makers. Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors. Because we expect that there will not be
a readily available market value for many of the investments in our portfolio, it is expected that many of our portfolio investments values will be determined in good faith by our board of directors in accordance with a documented valuation
policy that has been reviewed and approved by our board of directors in accordance with GAAP. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our
investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, our board of directors undertakes a multi-step
valuation process each quarter, as described below:



| |  |  | our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals responsible for
the portfolio investment;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management of the Advisor;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | to the extent determined by the audit committee of our board of directors, independent valuation firms engaged by us conduct independent appraisals and
review the Advisors preliminary valuations in light of their own independent assessment;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the audit committee of our board of directors reviews the preliminary valuations of the Advisor and independent valuation firms and, if necessary,
responds and supplements the valuation recommendation of the independent valuation firm to reflect any comments; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our board of directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the
Advisor, the respective independent valuation firms and the audit committee.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The types of factors that we
may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in
which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded securities and other relevant factors. We utilize an income approach to value our debt investments



81



---

##### Table of Contents

and a combination of income and market approaches to value our equity investments. With respect to unquoted securities, the Advisor and our board of directors, in consultation with our
independent third party valuation firm, values each investment considering, among other measures, discounted cash flow models, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public and other factors, which valuation is then approved by
our board of directors. For debt investments, we determine the fair value primarily using an income, or yield, approach that analyzes the discounted cash flows of interest and principal for the debt security, as set forth in the associated loan
agreements, as well as the financial position and credit risk of each portfolio investments. Our estimate of the expected repayment date is generally the legal maturity date of the instrument. The yield analysis considers changes in leverage levels,
credit quality, portfolio company performance and other factors.

We value our interest rate derivative agreement using an
income approach that analyzes the discounted cash flows associated with the interest rate derivative agreement. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flows methodology include the forward interest rate yield curves in effect as of the end of the
measurement period and an evaluation of the counterpartys credit risk.

We value our CLO residual interest investment in
a collateralized loan obligation using an income approach that analyzes the projected discounted cash flows of our residual interest. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flows methodology include the risk associated with the underlying
investments and the expected term of the collateralized loan obligation.

The market approach uses prices and other relevant
information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future cash flows or earnings to a single present amount
(discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include,
as relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, the current investment performance rating, security covenants, call protection
provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons
of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, transaction comparables, our principal market as the reporting entity and enterprise values, among other factors.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, we disclose the fair value of our investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3
measurements). The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1  Unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2  Quoted prices in
markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly;

Level 3  Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what
constitutes observable requires significant judgment by management.

We consider whether the volume and level of
activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifies transactions that are not orderly in determining fair value. Accordingly, if we determine that either



82



---

##### Table of Contents

the volume and/or level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not
associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to estimate fair value. Valuation techniques such as an income approach might be appropriate to supplement or replace a market approach in those
circumstances.

We have adopted the authoritative guidance under GAAP for estimating the fair value of investments in
investment companies that have calculated net asset value per share in accordance with the specialized accounting guidance for Investment Companies. Accordingly, in circumstances in which net asset value per share of an investment is determinative
of fair value, we estimate the fair value of an investment in an investment company using the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent) without further adjustment, if the net asset value per share of the investment is
determined in accordance with the specialized accounting guidance for investment companies as of the reporting entitys measurement date.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04), which
amends the existing fair value guidance within ASC 820-10. The amendments include: (1) application of the concepts of the highest and best use valuation premise only to measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets (that is, it does not apply
to financial assets or any liabilities), (2) an exception to fair value measurement principles for financial assets and financial liabilities (and derivatives) with offsetting positions in market risks or counterparty credit risk, which allows
an entity to measure the fair value of the net risk position when several criteria are met, (3) extension of the prohibition of a blockage factor application to all fair value measurements, (4) a model for the fair value measurement of
instruments classified within an entitys stockholders equity which is consistent with the guidance of measuring the fair value for liabilities, (5) additional disclosures for fair value measurements categorized in Level 3 of the
fair value hierarchy: (i) quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, (ii) a description of the valuation processes used by the entity and (iii) a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements,
(6) disclosure of the level in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value but where fair value is disclosed and (7) disclosure of any transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, not just
significant transfers. The provisions of ASU 2011-04 were adopted by us on January 1, 2012. The adoption of this standard has been reflected in our financial statement disclosures.

Revenue Recognition

We record interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. For loans and debt investments with contractual PIK interest which represents contractual interest
accrued and added to the loan balance that generally becomes due at maturity. We will cease accruing PIK interest if there is sufficient value to support the accrual or if we do not expect amounts to be collectible. We do not accrue as a receivable
interest on loans and debt investments if we determine that it is probable that we will not be able to collect such interest. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more and/or when it is
no longer probable that principal or interest will be collected. However, we may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011,
we did not have any loans on non-accrual status. Upfront loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we then amortize such amounts as interest income using the effective yield method. We record
prepayment premiums on loans and debt investments as interest income. Interest income from our investment in TRA and CLO residual interest is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity using anticipated cash flows
with any remaining amount recorded to the cost basis of the investment. We monitor the anticipated cash flows from our TRA and CLO residual interest and will adjust our effective yield periodically.

Net Realized Gains or Losses and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation

We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of
the investment, using the specific identification method, without regard to

unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized. We measure realized gains or losses on the interest rate derivative based upon the difference between the proceeds received or the
amounts paid on the interest rate derivative.Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values or value of the interest rate derivative during the reporting period, including any
reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation, when gains or losses are realized.

Federal
Income Taxes, including excise tax

We operate so as to maintain our status as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and
intend to continue to do so. Accordingly, we are not subject to federal income tax on the portion of our taxable income and gains distributed to stockholders. In order to qualify for favorable tax treatment as a RIC, we are required to distribute
annually to our stockholders at least 90% of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code. To avoid a 4% federal excise tax, we must distribute each calendar year the sum of (i) 98% of our ordinary income for each such calendar
year, and (ii) 98.2% of our net capital gains for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year, and (iii) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years and on which we paid no federal income tax. We may
choose not to distribute all of our taxable income for the calendar year and pay a non-deductible 4% excise tax on this income. If we choose to do so, all other things being equal, this would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be
distributed to stockholders. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, the Company accrues excise
taxes on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned using an annual effective excise tax rate. We will accrue excise tax on undistributed taxable income as required. Please refer to Dividends above for a summary of the
distributions made in 2012. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, we incurred excise tax expense of $0.1 million, $0 and $0, respectively.

Certain consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. These taxable entities are not consolidated for income tax purposes and may generate income tax liabilities or assets
from temporary differences in the recognition of items for financial reporting and income tax purposes at the subsidiaries. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, we recognized current income tax expense of $0.5 million, $0, and
$0, respectively, and a provision for tax on unrealized appreciation of $0.5 million, $0, and $0, respectively, for consolidated subsidiaries in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. During 2012, a taxable subsidiary received distributions of
$0.5 million from an underlying portfolio company for the payment of current year tax obligations, which is included as dividend income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $0.5
million and $0 of income tax expense, respectively, were included in deferred tax liability on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities relating to deferred tax on unrealized appreciation on investments. The Company is not subject to
income taxes, however, certain consolidated taxable subsidiaries may be subject to income taxes. The provision relates only to an individual subsidiary of the Company.

The following table summarizes the activity related to the Companys tax expense incurred for the year ended December 31, 2012 (in millions):

|                                                                             |  |   |     |

Because federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations
may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the consolidated financial statements
to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as
ordinary income for tax purposes.

|Item 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of December 31, 2012, 51.5%, or seventeen, of the debt investments in our portfolio bore interest at fixed rates.
Sixteen of the debt investments in our portfolio have interest rate floors, which have effectively converted the debt investments to fixed rate loans in the current interest rate environment. In the future, we expect other debt investments in our
portfolio will have floating rates. Our borrowings as well as the amount we receive under the interest rate derivative agreement are based upon floating rates. Assuming that the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of
December 31, 2012 were to remain constant and no actions were taken to alter the existing interest rate sensitivity, a hypothetical one percent increase in LIBOR would increase our net investment income by $0.1 million. A hypothetical decrease
in LIBOR would not affect our net income, again, due to the aforementioned floors in place. Although we believe that this measure is indicative of our sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not adjust for potential changes in credit quality,
size and composition of the assets on the balance sheet and other business developments that could affect net increase in net assets resulting from operations, or net income. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results would not
differ materially from the potential outcome simulated by this estimate. We currently hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using an interest rate swap whereby we pay a fixed rate of 1.1425% and receive three-month LIBOR. In the future, we may
use other standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contacts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to
participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

THL Credit, Inc.:

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and
liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of changes in net assets (deficit), and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of THL
Credit, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations, of their changes in net assets (deficit), and of their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December
31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Companys management is responsible for these financial
statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting appearing under Item 9A(b) of the annual report to stockholders. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audits (which were
integrated audits in 2012 and 2011). We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on
a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit
of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of
internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our procedures included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2012 by correspondence with
the issuers or custodian, and where replies were not received, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that,
in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject
to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

THL Credit, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

1. Organization

THL Credit, Inc., or the Company, was organized as a Delaware corporation on May 26, 2009. The Company has elected to be regulated as
a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or 1940 Act. The Company has elected to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or the Code, as
amended. In 2009, the Company was treated for tax purposes as a corporation. The Companys investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation, primarily through privately negotiated investments in debt and equity
securities of middle-market companies.

The Company was initially funded on July 23, 2009, issuing 6,700 shares of common
stock at an aggregate purchase price of $100,500 to THL Credit Opportunities, L.P., an affiliate of THL Credit Advisors LLC, or the Advisor. While the Company incurred certain costs in connection with an anticipated initial public offering, which
ultimately would have been borne by the Advisor had the offering not closed; the Company did not formally commence principal operations until the completion of the offering on April 21, 2010, as described below.

On April 20, 2010, in anticipation of completing an initial public offering and formally commencing principal operations, the Company
entered into a purchase and sale agreement with THL Credit Opportunities, L.P. and THL Credit Partners BDC Holdings, L.P., or BDC Holdings, an affiliate of the Company, to effectuate the sale by THL Credit Opportunities, L.P. to the Company of
certain securities valued at $62,107,449, as determined by the Companys board of directors, and on the same day issued 4,140,496 shares of common stock to BDC Holdings valued at $15.00 per share, pursuant to such agreement, in exchange for the
aforementioned securities. Subsequently, the Company filed an election to be regulated as a BDC.

On April 21, 2010, the
Company completed its initial public offering, formally commencing principal operations, and sold 9,000,000 shares of its common stock through a group of underwriters at a price of $13.00 per share, less an underwriting discount and commissions
totaling $0.8125 per share. Concurrently, the Company sold 6,307,692 shares of its common stock to BDC Holdings at $13.00 per share, the sale of which was not subject to an underwriting discount and commission. On April 27, 2010, the
Company closed the sale of the aforementioned 15,307,692 shares and received $190,683,947 of net proceeds, which includes an underwriting discount and offering expenses.

On May 26, 2010, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option under the underwriting agreement and elected to purchase an additional 337,000 shares of common stock at $13.00 per share
resulting in additional net proceeds of $3,891,850, which includes an underwriting discount and offering expenses.

On
September 25, 2012, the Company closed a public equity offering selling 6,095,000 shares of its common stock through a group of underwriters at a price of $14.09 per share, less an underwriting discount and offering expenses, and received
$81,656,591 in proceeds.

The Company has established wholly owned subsidiaries, THL Credit AIM Media Holdings Inc., THL Credit
Holdings, Inc. and THL Credit YP Holdings Inc, which are structured as Delaware entities, or tax blockers, to hold equity or equity-like investments in portfolio companies organized as limited liability companies, or LLCs (or other forms of
pass-through entities). Tax blockers are not consolidated for income tax purposes and may incur income tax expense as a result of their ownership of portfolio companies.

The Company has a wholly owned subsidiary, THL Corporate Finance, Inc., which serves as the administrative agent on certain investment transactions.

THL Credit SBIC, LP, or SBIC LP, and its general partner, THL Credit SBIC GP, LLC, or SBIC GP, were organized in Delaware on
August 25, 2011 as a limited partnership and limited liability company, respectively. On January 16, 2013, the Company withdrew its application with the Investment Division of

the U.S. Small Business Administration, or SBA, to license a small business investment company, or SBIC. The Company may consider pursuing a new application for a license from the SBA in the
future. Both the SBIC LP and SBIC GP remain consolidated wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.

As of December 31,
2012, the SBIC LP had three investments with an aggregate amortized cost basis of $28,920,464 and fair market value of $28,074,734. As of December 31, 2011, the SBIC LP had made one investment with an aggregate amortized cost basis and fair
market value of $12,785,748. On February 22, 2013, investments held in the SBIC, LP were transferred to the Company.

2. Significant
Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Company generally will not consolidate its
interest in any company other than in investment company subsidiaries and controlled operating companies substantially all of whose business consists of providing services to the Company.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been presented in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Regulation S-X. The financial results of our portfolio companies are not consolidated in the financial statements. The
accounting records of the Company are maintained in U.S. dollars.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the
reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, credit worthiness of our portfolio companies and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual
results to differ and these differences could be material.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The
Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at certain times, cash held in demand deposit accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit and is therefore subject to credit risk. There
were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs consist of fees and expenses paid in connection with the closing of credit facilities and are
capitalized at the time of payment. Deferred financing costs are amortized using the straight line method over the term of the credit facility.

Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred offering costs consist of fees and
expenses incurred in connection with the offer and sale of the Companys common stock, including legal, accounting, printing fees and other related expenses, as well as costs incurred in connection with the filing of a shelf registration
statement.

Interest Rate Derivative

The Company recognizes derivatives as either interest rate derivative assets or liabilities at fair value on its Consolidated Statements
of Assets and Liabilities with valuation changes and interest rate payments recorded as net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on interest rate derivative and interest rate derivative periodic interest payments, net, respectively, on
the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See also the disclosure in Note 7, Interest Rate Derivative.

Valuation of
Investments

Investments, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued using market quotations, which
are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or one or more broker-dealers or market makers. Debt and equity securities, for which market quotations are not readily available, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the
Companys board of directors. Because we expect that there will not be a readily available market value for many of the investments in the Companys portfolio, it is expected that many of the Companys portfolio investments
values will be determined in good faith by the Companys board of directors in accordance with a documented valuation policy that has been reviewed and approved by our board of directors in accordance with GAAP. Due to the inherent uncertainty
of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for
such investments, and the differences could be material.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not
readily available, the Companys board of directors undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:



| |  |  | the Companys quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals
responsible for the portfolio investment;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management of the Advisor;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | to the extent determined by the audit committee of the Companys board of directors, independent valuation firms engaged by the Company conduct
independent appraisals and review the Advisors preliminary valuations in light of their own independent assessment;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the audit committee of our board of directors reviews the preliminary valuations of the Advisor and independent valuation firms and, if necessary,
responds and supplements the valuation recommendation of the independent valuation firm to reflect any comments; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our board of directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the
Advisor, the respective independent valuation firms and the audit committee.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The types of factors that the
Company may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows, the
markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded securities and other relevant factors. The Company utilizes an income approach to value its debt investments and a combination of income and market approaches to
value its equity investments. With respect to unquoted securities, the Advisor and the Companys board of directors, in consultation with the Companys independent third party valuation firm, values each investment considering, among other
measures, discounted cash flow models, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public and other factors, which valuation is then approved by the board of directors. For debt investments, the Company determines the fair value
primarily using an income, or yield, approach that analyzes the discounted cash flows of interest and principal for the debt security, as set forth in the associated loan agreements, as well as the financial position and credit risk of each
portfolio investments. The Companys estimate of the expected repayment date is generally the legal maturity date of the instrument. The yield analysis considers changes in leverage levels, credit quality, portfolio company performance and
other factors.

##### Table of Contents

The Company values its interest rate derivative agreement using an income approach that
analyzes the discounted cash flows associated with the interest rate derivative agreement. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flows methodology include the forward interest rate yield curves in effect as of the end of the measurement period
and an evaluation of the counterpartys credit risk.

The Company values its CLO residual interest investment in a
collateralized loan obligation using an income approach that analyzes the discounted cash flows of our residual interest. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flows methodology include the risk associated with the underlying investments and the
expected term of the collateralized loan obligation.

The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated
by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future cash flows or earnings to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is
based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that the Company may take into account in fair value pricing the Companys investments include, as
relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, the current investment performance rating, security covenants, call protection provisions,
information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial
ratios of peer companies that are public, transaction comparables, our principal market as the reporting entity and enterprise values, among other factors.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Company discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to
valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level
3 measurements). The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1Unadjusted quoted
prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level
2Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly;

Level 3Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what
constitutes observable requires significant judgment by management.

The Company considers whether the volume and
level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifies transactions that are not orderly in determining fair value. Accordingly, if the Company determines that either the volume and/or level of activity for an asset
or liability has significantly decreased (from normal conditions for that asset or liability) or price quotations or observable inputs are not associated with orderly transactions, increased analysis and management judgment will be required to
estimate fair value. Valuation techniques such as an income approach might be appropriate to supplement or replace a market approach in those circumstances.

The Company has adopted the authoritative guidance under GAAP for estimating the fair value of investments in investment companies that have calculated net asset value per share in accordance with the
specialized accounting guidance for Investment Companies. Accordingly, in circumstances in which net asset value per share of an investment is determinative of fair value, the Company estimates the fair value of an investment in an investment
company using the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent) without further adjustment, if the net asset value per share of the investment is determined in accordance with the specialized accounting guidance for investment
companies as of the reporting entitys measurement date.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve
Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04), which amends the existing fair value guidance within ASC 820-10. The amendments include: (1) application of the concepts of the highest
and best use valuation premise only to measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets (that is, it does not apply to financial assets or any liabilities), (2) an exception to fair value measurement principles for financial assets and financial
liabilities (and derivatives) with offsetting positions in market risks or counterparty credit risk, which allows an entity to measure the fair value of the net risk position when several criteria are met, (3) extension of the prohibition of a
blockage factor application to all fair value measurements, (4) a model for the fair value measurement of instruments classified within an entitys stockholders equity which is consistent with the guidance of measuring the fair value
for liabilities, (5) additional disclosures for fair value measurements categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy: (i) quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, (ii) a description of the valuation processes
used by the entity and (iii) a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements, (6) disclosure of the level in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value but where fair value is disclosed
and (7) disclosure of any transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, not just significant transfers. The provisions of ASU 2011-04 were adopted by the Company on January 1, 2012. The adoption of this standard has been
reflected in the Companys financial statement disclosures.

Investment Risk

The value of investments will generally fluctuate with, among other things, changes in prevailing interest rates, federal tax rates,
counterparty risk, general economic conditions, the condition of certain financial markets, developments or trends in any particular industry and the financial condition of the issuer. During periods of limited liquidity and higher price volatility,
the Companys ability to dispose of investments at a price and time that the Company deems advantageous may be impaired. The extent of this exposure is reflected in the carrying value of these financial assets and recorded in the Consolidated
Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Lower-quality debt securities involve greater risk of default or price changes due to
changes in the credit quality of the issuer. The value of lower-quality debt securities often fluctuates in response to company, political, or economic developments and can decline significantly over short periods of time or during periods of
general or regional economic difficulty. Lower-quality debt securities can be thinly traded or have restrictions on resale, making them difficult to sell at an acceptable price. The default rate for lower-quality debt securities is likely to be
higher during economic recessions or periods of high interest rates.

The primary significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Companys debt securities (first lien secured
debt, second lien debt and subordinated debt), including income-producing investments in funds, payment rights and CLO residual interest is the weighted average cost of capital, or WACC. Significant increases (decreases) in the WACC in isolation
would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. In determining the WACC, for the income, or yield, approach, the Company considers current market yields and multiples, portfolio company performance, leverage levels, credit
quality, among other factors, including federal tax rates, in its analysis. In the case of the TRA and CLO residual interest, the Company considers the risk associated with the underlying investments and the expected term of the investment. Changes
in one or more of these factors can have a similar directional change on other factors in determining the appropriate WACC to use in the income approach.

The primary significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Companys equity investments is the EBITDA multiple, or the Multiple. Significant increases (decreases) in the
Multiple in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. To determine the Multiple for the market approach, the Company considers current market trading and/or transaction multiples, portfolio company performance
(financial ratios) relative to public and private peer companies and leverage levels, among other factors. Changes in one or more of these factors can have a similar directional change on other factors in determining the appropriate Multiple to use
in the market approach.

Investment in Tax Receivable Agreement Payment Rights

In June 2012, the Company invested in a TRA that entitles it to certain payment rights, or TRA Payment Rights, from Duff & Phelps
Corporation, or Duff & Phelps. The TRA transfers the economic value of certain tax deductions, or tax benefits, taken by Duff & Phelps to the Company and entitles the Company to a stream of payments to be received. The TRA payment
right is, in effect, a subordinated claim on the issuing company which can be valued based on the credit risk of the issuer, which includes projected future earnings, the liquidity of the underlying payment right, risk of tax law changes, the
effective tax rate and any other factors which might impact the value of the payment right.

Through the TRA, the Company is
entitled to receive an annual tax benefit payment based upon 85% of the savings from certain deductions along with interest. The payments that the Company is entitled to receive result from cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state or local
income tax that Duff & Phelps realizes (i) from the tax savings derived from the goodwill and other intangibles created in connection with the Duff & Phelps initial public offering (ii) from other income tax deductions.
These tax benefit payments will continue until the relevant deductions are fully utilized, which is projected to be 17 years. Pursuant to the TRA, the Company maintains the right to enforce Duff & Phelps payment obligations as a transferee
of the TRA contract. If Duff & Phelps chooses to pre-pay and terminate the TRA, the Company will be entitled to the present value of the expected future TRA payments. If Duff & Phelps breaches any material obligation than all
obligations are accelerated and calculated as if an early termination occurred. Failure to make a payment is a breach of a material obligation if the failure occurs for more than three months.

The projected annual tax benefit payment will be accrued on a quarterly basis and paid annually. The payment will be allocated between a
reduction in the cost basis of the investment and interest income based upon an amortization schedule. Based upon the characteristics of the investment, the Company has chosen to categorize the investment in the TRA payment rights as investment in
payment rights in the fair value hierarchy. The valuation will be based principally on a discounted cash flow analysis of projected future cash flow streams assuming an appropriate discount rate, which will among other things consider other
transactions in the market, the current credit environment, performance of Duff & Phelps and the length of the remaining payment stream. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recognized $1,170,538 of income in connection
with the TRA payment rights, respectively. As of December 31, 2012, the value of the Companys interest in the TRA was $12,261,736 and is reflected in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

Investment in Funds

The Company does not have the ability to redeem its investment in funds but distributions are expected to be received until the dissolution of the funds, which is anticipated to be between 2013 and 2021,
as the underlying investments are expected to be liquidated.

Greenway

On January 14, 2011, THL Credit Greenway Fund LLC, or Greenway, was formed as a Delaware limited liability company. Greenway is
a portfolio company of the Company. Greenway is a closed-end investment fund which provides for no liquidity or redemption options and is not readily marketable. Greenway operates under a limited liability agreement dated January 19, 2011, or
the Agreement. Greenway will continue in existence until January 14, 2021, subject to earlier termination pursuant to certain terms of the Agreement. The term may also be extended for up to three additional one-year periods pursuant
to certain terms of the Agreement. Greenway has a two year investment period.

Greenway has $150,000,000 of capital committed
by affiliates of a single institutional investor, and is managed by the Company through the investment professionals that serve on the Companys investment committee. The Companys capital commitment to Greenway is $15,000. As of
December 31, 2012, all of the capital had been called by Greenway. As of December 31, 2011, $11,603 had been called by Greenway. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the value of the Companys interest in Greenway
was $10,062 and $11,496, respectively, and is reflected in the Consolidated Schedules of Investments.

##### Table of Contents

As manager of Greenway, the Company acts as the investment adviser to Greenway and is
entitled to receive certain fees. As a result, Greenway is classified as an affiliate of the Company. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company earned $2,591,638 and $1,809,994 in fees related to Greenway, respectively, which
are included in other income from non-controlled, affiliated investment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $402,116 and $410,479 of fees related to Greenway, respectively, were
included in Due from affiliate on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Greenway invests in securities
similar to those of the Company pursuant to investment and allocation guidelines which address, among other things, the size of the borrowers, the types of transactions and the concentration and investment ratio amongst Greenway and the Company.
However, the Company has the discretion to invest in other securities.

LCP Capital Fund LLC

The Company has invested in a membership interest of LCP Capital Fund LLC, or LCP, a private investment company that was organized to
participate in investment opportunities that arise when a special purpose entity, or SPE, or sponsor thereof, needs to raise capital to achieve ratings, regulatory, accounting, tax, or other objectives. LCP is a closed investment vehicle which
provides for no liquidity or redemption options and is not readily marketable. LCP is managed by an unaffiliated third party. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has contributed $12,000,000 of capital in
the form of membership interests in LCP, which is invested in an underlying SPE referred to as Series 2005-01. On May 1, 2012, the Company received $3,645,967 in connection with a reduction in its commitment pursuant to the governing
documents, which is related to the notional amount of the underlying credit default swaps. The Companys exposure is limited to the amount of its remaining contributed capital. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the value
of the Companys interest in LCP was $8,354,033 and $12,000,000, respectively, and is reflected in the Consolidated Schedules of Investments.

The Companys contributed capital in LCP is maintained in a collateral account held by a third-party custodian, who is neither affiliated with the Company nor with LCP, and acts as collateral on
certain credit default swaps for the Series 2005-01 for which LCP receives fixed premium payments throughout the year, adjusted for expenses incurred by LCP. The SPE purchases assets on a non-recourse basis and LCP agrees to reimburse the SPE up to
a specified amount for potential losses. LCP holds the contributed cash invested for an SPE transaction in a segregated account that secures the payment obligation of LCP. The Company expects to receive distributions from LCP on a quarterly basis.
Such distributions are reflected in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Operations as interest income in the period earned. LCP has a remaining life of 18 years; however, it is currently expected that Series 2005-01 will terminate on
February 15, 2015, if not extended prior to this date pursuant to the terms of Series 2005-1 SPE. Regardless of the date of dissolution, LCP has the right to receive amounts held in the collateral account if there is an event of default
under LCPs operative agreements. LCP may have other series which will have investments in other SPEs to which the Company will not be exposed.

CLO residual interest

Interest income from the Companys CLO
residual interest is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity using anticipated cash flows with any remaining amount recorded to the cost basis of the investment. The Company monitors the anticipated cash flows
from its CLO residual interest and will adjust its effective yield periodically.

Security Transactions,
Payment-in-Kind, Income Recognition, Realized/Unrealized Gains or Losses

Security transactions are recorded on a
trade-date basis. The Company measures realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the

investment, using the specific identification method. The Company reports changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of net change in unrealized
appreciation on investments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company reports changes in fair value of the interest rate derivative that is measured at fair value as a component of net change in unrealized appreciation or
depreciation on interest rate derivative in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Interest income, adjusted for
amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that the Company expects to collect such amounts. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Original issue discount, principally
representing the estimated fair value of detachable equity or warrants obtained in conjunction with the acquisition of debt securities, and market discount or premium are capitalized and accreted or amortized into interest income over the life of
the respective security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion/amortization of discounts and premiums and upfront loan origination fees.

The Company has investments in its portfolio which contain a contractual paid-in-kind, or PIK, interest provision. PIK interest is
computed at the contractual rate specified in each investment agreement, is added to the principal balance of the investment, and is recorded as income. The Company will cease accruing PIK interest if there is insufficient value to support the
accrual or if it does not expect amounts to be collectible. To maintain the Companys status as a RIC, PIK interest income, which is considered investment company taxable income, must be paid out to stockholders in the form of dividends even
though the Company has not yet collected the cash. Amounts necessary to pay these dividends may come from available cash.

The
following shows a rollforward of PIK income for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011:

Interest income from the Companys TRA and CLO residual interest is recorded based upon an
estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity using anticipated cash flows with any remaining amount recorded to the cost basis of the investment. The Company monitors the anticipated cash flows from its CLO residual interest and will adjust
its effective yield periodically as needed.

The Company capitalizes and amortizes upfront loan origination fees received in
connection with the closing of investments. The unearned income from such fees is accreted into interest income over the contractual life of the loan based on the effective interest method. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment
premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees, and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income.

In certain
investment transactions, the Company may provide advisory services. For services that are separately identifiable and external evidence exists to substantiate fair value, income is recognized as earned. The Company had no income from advisory
services for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Other income includes commitment fees, fees
related to the management of Greenway, amendment fees and unused commitment fees associated with investments in portfolio companies.

Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.

Revolving and Unfunded Delayed
Draw Loans

For the Companys investments in revolving and delayed draw loans, the cost basis of the investments
purchased is adjusted for the cash received for the discount on the total balance committed. The fair value is

also adjusted for price appreciation or depreciation on the unfunded portion. As a result, the purchase of commitments not completely funded may result in a negative value until it is offset by
the future amounts called and funded.

Income Taxes, Including Excise Tax

The Company has elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and currently qualifies, and intends to continue to qualify
each year, as a RIC under the Code.

In order to qualify for favorable tax treatment as a RIC, the Company is required to
distribute annually to its stockholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code. To avoid a 4% excise tax on undistributed earnings, we are required to distribute each calendar year the sum of (i) 98% of
our ordinary income for such calendar year (ii) 98.2% of our net capital gains for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year (iii) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years and on which we paid
no federal income tax. The Company, at its discretion, may choose not to distribute all of its taxable income for the calendar year and pay a non-deductible 4% excise tax on this income. If the Company chooses to do so, all other things being equal,
this would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be distributed to stockholders. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend
distributions from such taxable income, the Company accrues excise taxes on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned using an annual effective excise tax rate. The annual effective excise tax rate is determined by dividing the
estimated annual excise tax by the estimated annual taxable income. See also the disclosure in Note 11, Dividends, for a summary of the dividends paid out during 2012. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company incurred
excise tax expense of $125,000, $22,000 and $0, respectively.

Certain consolidated subsidiaries of the Company are subject to
U.S. federal and state income taxes. These taxable entities are not consolidated with the Company for income tax purposes and may generate income tax liabilities or assets from temporary differences in the recognition of items for financial
reporting and income tax purposes at the subsidiaries. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized current income tax expense of $456,502, $0, and $0, respectively, and a provision for tax on unrealized
appreciation of $453,558, $0, and $0, respectively, for consolidated subsidiaries in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. During 2012, a taxable subsidiary received distributions of $456,432 from an underlying portfolio company for the payment
of current year tax obligations, which is included as dividend income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $453,558 and $0 of income tax expense, respectively, were included in
deferred tax liability on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities relating to deferred tax on unrealized appreciation on investments. The Company is not subject to income taxes, however, certain consolidated taxable subsidiaries may be
subject to income taxes. The provision relates only to an individual subsidiary of the Company.

The following table summarizes
the activity related to the Companys income tax expense incurred for the year ended December 31, 2012:

The Company follows the provisions under the authoritative guidance on accounting for and disclosure of
uncertainty in tax positions. The provisions require management to determine whether a tax position of the Company is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based
on the technical merits of the position. For tax positions not meeting the more likely than not threshold, the tax amount recognized in the consolidated financial statements is

reduced by the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant taxing authority. There are no unrecognized tax
benefits or obligations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Although the Company files federal and state tax returns, the Companys major tax jurisdiction is federal. The Companys inception-to-date federal tax years
remain subject to examination by taxing authorities.

Dividends

Dividends and distributions to stockholders are recorded on the applicable record date. The amount to be paid out as a dividend is
determined by the Companys board of directors on a quarterly basis. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed at least annually out of assets legally available for such distributions, although the Company may decide to
retain such capital gains for investment.

Capital transactions in connection with the Companys dividend reinvestment
plan are recorded when shares are issued.

3. Related Party Transactions

On February 27, 2013, the Companys investment management agreement was re-approved by its board of directors, including a
majority of our directors who are not interested persons of the Company. Under the investment management agreement, the Advisor, subject to the overall supervision of the Companys board of directors, manages the day-to-day operations of, and
provides investment advisory services to the Company.

The Advisor receives a fee for investment advisory and management
services consisting of a base management fee and a two-part incentive fee.

The base management fee is calculated at an annual
rate of 1.5% of the Companys gross assets payable quarterly in arrears on a calendar quarter basis. For purposes of calculating the base management fee, gross assets is determined as the value of the Companys assets without
deduction for any liabilities. The base management fee is calculated based on the value of the Companys gross assets at the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases
during the current calendar quarter.

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company incurred base
management fees payable to the Advisor of $4,943,025, $4,011,897 and $2,696,647, respectively. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $1,514,422 and $1,013,048, respectively, was payable to the Advisor.

The incentive fee has two components, ordinary income and capital gains, as follows:

The ordinary income component is calculated, and payable, quarterly in arrears based on the Companys preincentive fee net investment
income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to a cumulative total return requirement and to deferral of non-cash amounts. The preincentive fee net investment income, which is expressed as a rate of return on the value of the
Companys net assets attributable to the Companys common stock, for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, will have a 2.0% (which is 8.0% annualized) hurdle rate (also referred to as minimum income level). Preincentive
fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence, managerial assistance and consulting fees or other fees that the Company
receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Companys operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Companys administration agreement (discussed
below), and any interest expense and any dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee and any offering expenses and other expenses not charged to operations but excluding certain reversals to the
extent such reversals have the effect of reducing previously accrued incentive fees based on the deferral of non-cash interest. Preincentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred

##### Table of Contents

interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with PIK interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. The Advisor
receives no incentive fee for any calendar quarter in which the Companys preincentive fee net investment income does not exceed the minimum income level. Subject to the cumulative total return requirement described below, the Advisor receives
100% of the Companys preincentive fee net investment income for any calendar quarter with respect to that portion of the preincentive net investment income for such quarter, if any, that exceeds the minimum income level but is less than 2.5%
(which is 10.0% annualized) of net assets (also referred to as the catch-up provision) and 20.0% of the Companys preincentive fee net investment income for such calendar quarter, if any, greater than 2.5% (10.0% annualized) of net
assets. The foregoing incentive fee is subject to a total return requirement, which provides that no incentive fee in respect of the Companys preincentive fee net investment income is payable except to the extent 20.0% of the cumulative net
increase in net assets resulting from operations over the then current and 11 preceding calendar quarters exceeds the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid for the 11 preceding quarters. In other words, any ordinary income incentive fee that
is payable in a calendar quarter is limited to the lesser of (i) 20% of the amount by which the Companys preincentive fee net investment income for such calendar quarter exceeds the 2.0% hurdle, subject to the catch-up
provision, and (ii) (x) 20% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the then current and 11 preceding quarters minus (y) the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid for the 11 preceding
calendar quarters. For the foregoing purpose, the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations is the amount, if positive, of the sum of preincentive fee net investment income, base management fees, realized gains and
losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of the Company for the then current and 11 preceding calendar quarters. In addition, the Advisor is not paid the portion of such incentive fee that is attributable to deferred interest until the
Company actually receives such interest in cash.

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company
incurred $7,441,725, $3,818,186 and $0, respectively, of incentive fees related to ordinary income.

The second component of
the incentive fee (capital gains incentive fee) is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment management agreement, as of the termination date). This component is equal to 20.0% of
the Companys cumulative aggregate realized capital gains from inception through the end of that calendar year, computed net of the cumulative aggregate realized capital losses and cumulative aggregate unrealized capital depreciation through
the end of such year. The aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees is subtracted from such capital gains incentive fee calculated. The capital gains incentive fee payable to the Companys Advisor under the investment
management agreement as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $34,723 and $195,929, respectively.

As of
December 31, 2012, $2,330,759 of such incentive fees are currently payable to the Advisor, as $630,020 of incentive fees incurred by the Company were generated from deferred interest (i.e. PIK and certain discount accretion) and are not payable
until such amounts are received in cash.

GAAP requires that the incentive fee accrual considers the cumulative aggregate
unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation of investments or other financial instruments, such as an interest rate derivative, in the calculation, as an incentive fee would be payable if such unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation were
realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the fee actually payable under the investment management agreement. For accounting purposes in accordance with GAAP only, in
order to reflect the potential incentive fee that would be payable for a given period as if all unrealized gains or losses were realized, the Company has accrued incentive fees of ($459,198) and $776,342 as of December 31, 2012 and
December 31, 2011, respectively, based upon unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments and the interest rate derivative for that period (in accordance with the terms of the investment management agreement). There can be no assurance
that such unrealized appreciation or depreciation will be realized in the future. Accordingly, such fee, as calculated and accrued would not necessarily be payable under the investment management agreement, and may never be paid based upon the
computation of incentive fees in subsequent



117

##### Table of Contents

periods. Approximately $350,000 of the accrued incentive fee for the year ended December 31, 2011 was related to unrealized appreciation on investments in periods prior to 2011. Such amounts
were not material to current or to prior periods consolidated financial statements.

The Company has also entered into an
administration agreement with the Advisor under which the Advisor will provide administrative services to the Company. Under the administration agreement, the Advisor performs, or oversees the performance of administrative services necessary for the
operation of the Company, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records which the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports to the Companys stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In
addition, the Advisor assists in determining and publishing the Companys net asset value, oversees the preparation and filing of the Companys tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to the Companys stockholders,
and generally oversees the payment of the Companys expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others. The Company will reimburse the Advisor for its allocable portion of the costs and
expenses incurred by the Advisor for overhead in performance by the Advisor of its duties under the administration agreement and the investment management agreement, including facilities, office equipment and our allocable portion of cost
of compensation and related expenses of our chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs, as well as any costs and expenses incurred by the Advisor relating to any administrative or operating services provided by
the Advisor to the Company. Such costs are reflected as administrator expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Under the administration agreement, the Advisor provides, on behalf of the Company, managerial assistance to
those portfolio companies to which the Company is required to provide such assistance. To the extent that our Advisor outsources any of its functions, the Company pays the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis without profit to the
Advisor.

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company incurred administrator expenses of $3,224,597,
$2,871,778 and $1,715,694, respectively. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $304,491 and $338,569, respectively, was payable to the Advisor.

The Company and the Advisor have entered into a license agreement with THL Partners, L.P., or THL Partners, under which THL Partners has granted to the Company and the Advisor a non-exclusive, personal,
revocable, worldwide, non-transferable license to use the trade name and service mark THL, which is a proprietary mark of THL Partners, for specified purposes in connection with the Companys and the Advisors respective businesses. This
license agreement is royalty-free, which means the Company is not charged a fee for its use of the trade name and service mark THL. The license agreement is terminable either in its entirety or with respect to the Company or the Advisor by THL
Partners at any time in its sole discretion upon 60 days prior written notice, and is also terminable with respect to either the Company or the Advisor by THL Partners in the case of certain events of non-compliance. After the expiration of its
first one year term, the entire license agreement is terminable by either the Company or the Advisor at the Company or its sole discretion upon 60 days prior written notice. Upon termination of the license agreement, the Company and the Advisor must
cease to use the name and mark THL, including any use in the Companys respective legal names, filings, listings and other uses that may require the Company to withdraw or replace the Companys names and marks. Other than with
respect to the limited rights contained in the license agreement, the Company and the Advisor have no right to use, or other rights in respect of, the THL name and mark. The Company is an entity operated independently from THL Partners, and
third parties who deal with the Company have no recourse against THL Partners.

Due to and from Affiliates

The Advisor paid certain other general and administrative expenses on behalf of the Company. As of December 31,
2012 and December 31, 2011, $0 and $20,597, respectively, of expenses were included in Due to affiliate on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

As manager of Greenway, the Company acts as the investment adviser to Greenway and is entitled to receive certain fees. As a result, Greenway is classified as an affiliate of the Company. As of
December 31,

5. Net Increase in Net Assets Per Share Resulting from Operations

The following information sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net increase in net assets per share resulting from operations:



|                                                                                         |  |                                  |            |  |      |   |            |      |  |   |            |

Diluted net increase in net assets per share resulting from operations equals basic net increase in net
assets per share resulting from operations for each period because there were no common stock equivalents outstanding during the above periods.

6. Credit Facility

On
May 10, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment, or the Amendment, to its existing revolving credit agreement, or Revolving Facility, and entered into a new senior secured term loan credit facility, or Term Loan Facility, and together with
the Revolving Facility, the Facilities, with ING Capital LLC.

The Amendment revised the Revolving Facility, dated
March 11, 2011, to, among other things, increase the amount available for borrowing from $125,000,000 to $140,000,000; permit the Term Loan Facility; extend the maturity date from May 2014 to May 2016 (with a one year term out period beginning
in May 2015); and change the non-use fee from 1.00% annually if the Company uses 50% or less of the Revolving Facility and 0.50% annually if the Company uses more than 50% of the Revolving Facility to 1.00% annually if the Company uses 35% or less
of the Revolving Facility and 0.50% annually if the Company uses more than 35% of the Revolving Facility. The Amendment also changes the interest rate of the Revolving Facility from (a) Eurocurrency loans from LIBOR plus 3.50% to (i) when
the facility is more than 35% drawn and the step-down condition is satisfied, LIBOR plus 3.00%, (ii) when the facility is more than 35% drawn and the step-down condition is not satisfied, LIBOR plus 3.25%, (iii) when the facility is less
than or equal to 35% drawn and the step-down condition is satisfied, LIBOR plus 3.25%, and (iv) when the facility is less than or equal to 35% drawn and the step-down condition is not satisfied, LIBOR plus 3.50% and (b) alternative base
rate loans based, or ABR, on the highest rate of the Prime Rate, Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% or three month LIBOR plus 1.0% per annum to (i) when the facility is more than 35% drawn and the step-down condition is satisfied, ABR plus
2.00%, (ii) when the facility is more than 35% drawn and the



119

##### Table of Contents

step-down condition is not satisfied, ABR plus 2.25%, (iii) when the facility is less than or equal to 35% drawn and the step-down condition is satisfied, ABR plus 2.25%, and (iv) when
the facility is less than or equal to 35% drawn and the step-down condition is not satisfied, ABR plus 2.50%.

The Term Loan
Facility provides the Company with a $50,000,000 senior secured term loan, or Term Loan. The Term Loan expires in May 2017, bears interest at LIBOR plus 4.00% (with no LIBOR Floor) and has substantially similar terms to the Companys existing
Revolving Facility (as amended by the Amendment).

Each of the Facilities includes an accordion feature permitting the Company
to expand the Facilities, if certain conditions are satisfied; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of the Facilities, collectively, is capped at $225,000,000.

The Facilities generally require payment of interest on a quarterly basis for ABR loans, and at the end of the applicable interest period for Eurocurrency loans bearing interest at LIBOR. All
outstanding principal is due upon each maturity date. The Facilities also require a mandatory prepayment of interest and principal upon certain customary triggering events (including, without limitation, the disposition of assets or the issuance of
certain securities).

Borrowings under the Facilities are subject to, among other things, a minimum borrowing/collateral base.
The Facilities have certain collateral requirements and/or financial covenants, including covenants related to: (a) limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, (b) limitations on certain investments,
(c) limitations on certain restricted payments, (d) limitations on the creation or existence of agreements that prohibit liens on certain properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and (e) compliance with certain financial
maintenance standards including (i) minimum stockholders equity, (ii) a ratio of total assets (less total liabilities not represented by senior securities) to the aggregate amount of senior securities representing indebtedness, of
the Company and its subsidiaries, of not less than 2.25:1.0, (iii) minimum liquidity, (iv) minimum net worth, and (v) a consolidated interest coverage ratio. In addition to the financial maintenance standards, described in the
preceding sentence, borrowings under the Facilities (and the incurrence of certain other permitted debt) are subject to compliance with a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to different types of assets in the Companys
portfolio.

The Facilities documents also include default provisions such as the failure to make timely payments under
the Facilities, the occurrence of a change in control, and the failure by the Company to materially perform under the operative agreements governing the Facilities, which, if not complied with, could, at the option of the lenders under the
Facilities, accelerate repayment under the Facilities, thereby materially and adversely affecting the Companys liquidity, financial condition and results of operations. Each loan originated under the Revolving Facility is subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company cannot be assured that it will be able to borrow funds under the Revolving Facility at any particular time or at all. The Company is currently in compliance with all financial covenants under the
Facilities.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company borrowed $189,900,000 and made $144,900,000 of repayments
under the Facilities. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company borrowed $28,500,000 and made $23,500,000 of repayments under the Facilities. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were $50,000,000 and $5,000,000
of borrowings outstanding at a weighted average interest rate of 4.2110% and 3.8125%, respectively. Interest expense and related fees of $3,138,276 and $1,043,070 were incurred in connection with the Facilities during the years ended
December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain exceptions, the Company is only
allowed to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 200% after such borrowing. The asset coverage as of December 31, 2012 is in excess of 200%.

7. Interest Rate Derivative

On May 10, 2012, the Company entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement, or swap agreement, with ING Capital Markets, LLC on its Term Loan Borrowing. Under the swap agreement, with a
notional

value of $50,000,000, the Company pays a fixed rate of 1.1425% and receives a floating rate based upon the current three-month LIBOR rate. The Company entered into the swap agreement to manage
interest rate risk and not for speculative purposes.

The Company uses an income approach using a discounted cash flow
methodology to value the interest rate derivative. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flows methodology include the forward interest rate yield curves in effect as of the end of the measurement period and an evaluation of the
counterpartys credit risk.

The Company records the change in valuation of the swap agreement in unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) as of each measurement period. When the quarterly interest rate swap amounts are paid or received under the swap agreement, the amounts are recorded as a realized gain (loss).

The Company recognized a realized loss for the year ended December 31, 2012 of $179,581, which is reflected as interest rate
derivative periodic interest payments, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

For the year ended December 31,
2012, the Company recognized $1,053,221 of net unrealized depreciation from the swap agreement, which is listed under unrealized depreciation on interest rate derivative in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of December 31 2012, the
Companys fair value of its swap agreement is $1,053,221, which is listed as an interest rate derivative liability on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

8. Offering Expenses

A portion of the net proceeds of the Companys
public equity offering of 6,095,000 shares of common stock on September 25, 2012 was used to pay offering expenses of $4,215,864. Offering costs, which include $3,435,142 of underwriters fees, have been charged against paid in capital in
excess of par. For the year ended December 31, 2011, $327,267 of offering costs related to the Companys shelf registration statement were incurred and are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. All offering
costs were borne by the Company.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Company, or the Advisor, may become party to legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including
proceedings related to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. Neither the Company, nor the Advisor, is currently subject to any material legal proceedings.

Unfunded commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies are not reflected on the Companys balance sheet. The Companys
unfunded commitments may be significant from time to time. These commitments will be subject to the same underwriting and ongoing portfolio maintenance as are the on-balance sheet financial instruments that the Company holds. Since these commitments
may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company intends to use cash flow from normal and early principal repayments and proceeds from borrowings and offerings to
fund these commitments.

As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has the following unfunded
commitments to portfolio companies (in millions):

The above amount of 2012 taxable income before deductions for dividends is an estimate. Taxable income
will be finalized before the Company files its Federal tax return in September 2013.

The tax character of distributions
declared and paid in 2012 represented $28,493,313 from ordinary income, $917,830 from capital gains and $0 from tax return of capital. Generally accepted accounting principles require adjustments to certain components of net assets to reflect
permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These adjustments have no affect on net asset value per share. Permanent differences between financial and tax reporting at December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $223,090 and $68,970,
respectively.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the cost of investments for tax purposes was $391,797,012 and $263,487,213,
respectively, resulting in net unrealized appreciation of $2,552,122 and $3,506,119, respectively. There was no net unrealized depreciation in the Companys investments at December 31, 2012 and 2011. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the
Company had no net capital loss carry forwards.

11. Dividends

The Company has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to maintain its status as a regulated investment company, it is required to distribute at
least 90% of its investment company taxable income. To avoid a 4% excise tax on undistributed earnings, the Company is required to distribute each calendar year the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income for such calendar year (ii) 98.2% of
its net capital gains for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year (iii) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years and on which the Company paid no federal income tax. The Company intends to make
distributions to stockholders on a quarterly basis of substantially all of its net investment income. In addition, although the Company intends to make distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually, out of assets legally
available for such distributions, it may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

In addition, the
Company may be limited in its ability to make distributions due to the BDC asset coverage test for borrowings applicable to the Company as a BDC under the 1940 Act.

On December 20, 2012, the Companys board of directors declared a special dividend of $0.05 per
share, which was paid on January 28, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 31, 2012.

On February 27, 2013, the Companys board of directors declared a dividend of $0.33 per share, payable on March 29, 2013 to
stockholders of record at the close of business on March 15, 2013.

The Company may not be able to achieve operating
results that will allow it to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time. If the Company does not distribute a certain percentage of its income annually, it will suffer adverse tax
consequences, including possible loss of its status as a regulated investment company. The Company cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any distributions at a particular level.

We maintain an opt in dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, unless stockholders specifically
elect to have their dividends automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, stockholders will receive all such dividends in cash. With respect to our dividends and distributions paid to stockholders during the years ended
December 31, 2012 and 2011, dividends reinvested pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan totaled $26 and $4,048,597, respectively.

Under the terms of our dividend reinvestment plan, dividends will primarily be paid in newly issued shares of common stock. However, the Company reserves the right to purchase shares in the open market in
connection with the implementation of the plan. This feature of the plan means that, under certain circumstances, we may issue shares of our common stock at a price below net asset value per share, which could cause our stockholders to experience
dilution.

Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated profits and earnings would be treated first as a return of
capital to the extent of the stockholders tax basis, and any remaining distributions would be treated as a capital gain. The determination of the tax attributes of our distributions will be made annually as of the end of our fiscal year based
upon our taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. Therefore, a determination made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of our distributions for a full year. Each year, a
statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the source of the distribution will be sent to our U.S. stockholders.

None.



|Item 9A. | Controls and Procedures
|-------- | -----------------------

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, conducted an
evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed,
summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of THL Credit, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (except where the context suggests otherwise, the terms we, us, our, and THL Credit refer to THL
Credit, Inc. and its Subsidiaries) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness
of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons
performing similar functions, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets
that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Management performed an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012
based upon the criteria set forth in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our assessment, management determined that our
internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.

(c) Report of the Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2012 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.
