THL Credit Senior Loan Fund

Manager Commentary (unaudited) December 31, 2019

Dear Shareholder,

On December 8, 2019, 2019, THL Credit Advisors LLC (“THL Credit” or the “Advisor”) and First Eagle Investment Management, LLC (“FEIM”) entered into a definitive agreement, whereby FEIM agreed, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, to merge a newly formed subsidiary of FEIM with and into THL Credit, with THL Credit as the surviving company (the “Transaction”). The Transaction closed on January 31, 2020. Immediately after closing of the Transaction, THL Credit changed its name to First Eagle Alternative Credit, LLC.

The consummation of the Transaction resulted in a change of control of the Advisor and an “assignment” of the then-current investment advisory agreement between the Fund and the Advisor (the “Prior Advisory Agreement”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), causing the Prior Advisory Agreement to terminate automatically by its terms. In order to ensure the continued management of the Fund’s assets following the termination of the Prior Advisory Agreement, at an in-person meeting held on January 9, 2020, the Board approved: (i) an interim advisory agreement between the Fund and the Advisor (the “Interim Advisory Agreement”); and (ii) subject to approval by Fund shareholders, the Advisor to continue serve as the Fund’s investment adviser on a non-interim basis, pursuant to a new investment advisory agreement between the Fund and the Advisor (the “New Advisory Agreement”). Shareholders will be asked to approve the New Advisory Agreement at the Fund’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 24, 2020.

Other than the change in the ownership structure of the Advisor, the Transaction has not and will not materially affect the management and investment approach of the Advisor or the Fund. The Fund’s investment objective, principal investment strategies and fundamental investment policies will not change as a result of the Transaction. In addition, the operations of the Advisor are expected to remain substantially the same going forward, as are the nature, extent and quality of the services that the Advisor provides to the Fund. Furthermore, the combined platform of the Advisor and FEIM is expected to benefit the Fund not only through FEIM’s scale as a global asset manager, but also through its access to additional distribution channels, such as investment advisers and wire houses. FEIM has a trusted and long-standing brand presence in the wealth management business, and FEIM’s brand is expected to garner additional positive attention to the Fund. FEIM’s brand presence and long-standing relationships may increase the rate of investor engagement with the Fund, promote investor access to information and grow awareness of the Fund in the market.

2019 Loan Market Review

The U.S. Leveraged Loan market, as measured by the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index (the “Index”)1, demonstrated positive performance in 2019, coming off a weak 2018. The Index posted returns for the year of 8.17%2, compared to 1.14%2 for 2018. The average price of the Index improved significantly from $94.093 at the end of 2018 to $96.513 at the end of 2019.

Retail bank loan mutual funds continued to see the outflows that started in October 2018 and peaked in December 2018 as retail investors continued to make moves out of floating rate into fixed rate product. For 2019, outflows totaled $37 billion.4 Institutional demand, as measured by CLO issuance, a significant provider of funding for the loan market, was $118 billion4 in 2019, down 8% from a record year of issuance in 2018.4

Following two years of record-setting issuance, new-issue loan volume tapered off significantly in 2019, totaling $392 billion5 in 2019, a decrease of 44%5 from 2018. During 2019, mergers and acquisition financings accounted for 40%5 of the volume and refinancings/repricings accounted for 51%5 of the volume. The remainder of the volume related to dividend recaps and general corporate use. Refinancings and repricings totaled $199 billion5 for 2019. While activity increased in the fourth quarter of 2019, overall activity was still down significantly from the $402 billion5 recorded in 2018. Net issuance (excluding refinancings and repricings) totaled $192 billion5 in 2019.

Manager Commentary (unaudited) December 31, 2019

The bank loan default rate ended the year at 1.39%,6 down from 1.64%6 at the end of 2018. This rate includes 224 new defaults occurring during the year.

Outlook

We expect the loan market to start with a strong tone, given limited new issue supply, a better economy, trade war uncertainties diminishing and continued subdued default rates.

THL Credit Senior Loan Fund Performance

As of December 31, 2019, the Fund had total investments in securities recorded at fair value of $170.4 million and net assets of $125.3 million. The Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) on December 31, 2019 was $16.89 per share, down from $17.29 per share on December 31, 2018.

Since inception through December 31, 2019, on an annualized basis, the Fund had returns of 5.03% on a NAV basis, outperforming the Index over the same period which had a return of 4.19%2. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, the Fund had returns of 4.80% on a NAV basis, while the Index returned 8.17%2 over the same period.

The Fund’s borrowings as of December 31, 2019 were $48.0 million, down $2.0 million from December 31, 2018. As a percentage of Managed Assets (defined as total assets of the Fund, including any assets attributable to borrowings for investment purposes, minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities, other than liabilities representing borrowings for investment purposes), leverage decreased slightly to 27.7% at December 31, 2019 from 28.1% at December 31, 2018. Over the year, leverage as a percentage of Managed Assets averaged 27.2%.

The Fund earned $12.8 million in interest income for the year ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of 6.2% from the year ended December 31, 2018. The decrease in income is driven by both a reduction in invested assets due to lower utilization of leverage during 2019, coupled with a reduction in coupon rates during 2019. The Fund’s weighted average coupon (reference rate plus spread) of the portfolio on December 31, 2019 was 6.20%, down from 6.95% as of December 31, 2018. The Fund’s weighted average spread on floating rate securities was 4.32% as of December 31, 2019, down slightly from 4.41% on December 31, 2018.

Total Fund net expenses were $3.6 million for 2019, a decrease of approximately $639,000 from 2018. Advisory fees decreased by approximately $383,000 in 2019 compared to 2018. The decrease was primarily driven by the reduced advisory fee rate of 80 bps which was effective June 22, 2018 and in place for the full year 2019. Additionally, interest expense and other fees on borrowings decreased approximately $81,000 from 2018 to 2019. This decrease was driven by a decrease in average borrowing from $58.0 million in 2018 to $47.6 million in 2019, offset by an increase in the average borrowing rate from 2.97% in 2018 to 3.44% in 2019. Expense waivers increased approximately $108,000 from 2018 to 2019 due to a full year of Fund expenses being subject to the expense cap. Additionally, professional fees declined by approximately $52,000 from 2018 to 2019

Net of Fund expenses, the Fund generated $9.2 million of net investment income during 2019, a decrease of 2.2% from prior year. During 2019, the Fund paid distributions of $9.0 million, maintaining its monthly distribution of $0.101/share through the entire year.

†

Securities are US securities, unless otherwise noted.

(a)

Senior loans pay interest at rates that are periodically determined on the basis of a floating benchmark lending rate, often subject to a floor, plus a spread, unless otherwise indicated. The most popular benchmark lending rates are the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), the rate that contributor banks in London charge each other for interbank deposits, and the prime rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks (“Prime”). Both LIBOR and Prime were utilized as benchmark lending rates for the senior loans at December 31, 2019. The rates shown represent the contractual rates (benchmark rate or floor plus spread) in effect at period end. Senior loans often require prepayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy.

(b)

Fair Value Level 3 security. All remaining securities are categorized as Level 2 unless otherwise noted.

(c)	All or a portion of this position has not settled as of December 31, 2019. The Fund will not accrue interest on its senior loans until the settlement date at which point LIBOR will be established.

(d)

Security was purchased pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be resold subject to that rule except to qualified institutional buyers. Total fair value of Rule 144A securities amounts to $497,188 which represents approximately 0.4% of net assets as of December 31, 2019. Unless otherwise noted, 144A securities are deemed to be liquid.

(e)

Rate shown reflects the 7-day yield as of December 31, 2019.

(f)

Fair Value Level 1 security.

Net realized and change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments and delayed draw loan commitments per share in this caption are balancing amounts necessary to reconcile the change in net asset value per share for the period, and may not reconcile with the aggregate gains and losses in the Statement of Operations due to the share transactions for the period.

(3)

Total return based on net asset value reflects changes in the Fund’s net asset value during each period. Total return based on market value reflects changes in market value. Each figure assumes that dividend and capital gain distributions, if any, were reinvested. For NAV total returns, distributions are assumed to be reinvested at NAV on the distribution date. For market value total returns, distributions are assumed to be reinvested at the prices obtained under the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan. These figures will differ depending upon the level of any discount from or premium to net asset value at which the Fund’s shares traded during the period.

(4)

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

THL Credit Senior Loan Fund

Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2019

1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

THL Credit Senior Loan Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified, closed-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Fund is a statutory trust established under the laws of Delaware by Certificate of Trust dated July 30, 2013. The Fund commenced operations on September 20, 2013.

The Fund’s investment objective is to provide current income and preservation of capital primarily through investments in U.S. dollar-denominated senior secured corporate loans and notes (“Senior Loans”). Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its Managed Assets, defined as the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to borrowings for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings for investment purposes), in Senior Loans. The Senior Loans in which the Fund will invest are fully collateralized, first lien corporate loans and notes. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its Managed Assets in other securities, including high yield securities, notes, bonds, convertible securities, second lien loans and other subordinated debt and collateralized loan obligations. The Fund’s investments in high yield bonds, not including Senior Loans, will be limited to 10% of the Fund’s Managed Assets.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, THL Credit Advisors LLC (the “Adviser”) served as the Fund’s investment adviser. Effective January 31, 2020, the Adviser completed a change of control transaction (the “Transaction”) which resulted in an “assignment” of the then-current investment advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser under 1940 Act, causing the investment advisory agreement to terminate automatically by its terms. Accordingly, the Adviser now serves as the Fund’s interim investment adviser. Please refer to Note 11 for further information regarding the Transaction.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Fund is an investment company that applies the accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”. The Fund’s financial statements have been prepared to comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). These principles require the Adviser to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Fund follows the significant accounting policies described in this section, as well as the valuation policies described in the next section on valuation.

The following summarizes the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Securities Valuation: The Fund holds portfolio securities that are fair valued at the close of each day on the New York Stock Exchange, normally at 4:00 P.M., Eastern Time. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has delegated fair valuation responsibilities to a valuation committee (the “Committee”), subject to the Board’s supervision and direction, through the adoption of procedures for valuation of the Fund’s securities (the “Valuation Procedures”). The Committee consists of certain designated individuals of the Adviser. Under the current Valuation Procedures, the Committee is responsible for, among other things, determining and monitoring the value of the Fund’s assets. The Valuation Procedures allow the Fund to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers and other valuation methods in events when market quotations are not readily available or not representative of the fair value of the securities.

The Fund’s securities are valued by various methods, as described below:

Senior Loans are valued at prices supplied by the Fund’s pricing agent based on broker-dealer supplied valuations (including mid or average prices) and other criteria if the Committee does not believe that the pricing agent price reflects the current market value, the Adviser will determine a recommended method of valuing the Senior Loan for consideration by the Committee.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

THL Credit Senior Loan Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) December 31, 2019

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Fixed income securities (including short-term obligations) are valued at prices supplied by the Fund’s pricing agent based on broker-dealer supplied valuations, or in the absence of broker-dealer supplied valuations, matrix pricing, a method of valuing securities by reference to the value of other securities with similar characteristics, such as rating, interest rate and maturity.

Exchange traded equity securities and warrants are valued at the last quoted sales price as of the close of the exchange or, in the absence of a sale, the closing bid price, with the exception that for securities traded on the London Stock Exchange and National Association of Securities Dealers’ Automated Quotation System, those securities are valued at the official closing price.

Non-exchange traded equity securities are valued at prices supplied by the Fund’s pricing agent based on the average of the bid/ask prices quoted by brokers that are knowledgeable about the securities.

Money market funds are valued at their net asset value.

If a price is not available from an independent pricing service or broker, or if the price provided is believed to be unreliable, the security will be fair valued pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board. As a general principle, the fair value of a security would appear to be the amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for it in a current sale. Fair value methods may include, but are not limited to, the use of market comparable and/or income approach methodologies. Using a fair value pricing methodology to value securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent sale price and from the prices used by other investment companies to calculate their NAV. Determination of fair value is uncertain because it involves subjective judgments and estimates. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s valuation of a security will not differ from the amount that it realizes upon the sale of such security.

Fair Value Measurement

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, quoted prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability based on the best information available.

Investments that use Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to: (i) an unlisted security related to corporate actions; (ii) a restricted security (e.g., one that may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended); (iii) a security whose trading has been suspended or which has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; (iv) a security that is thinly traded; (v) a security in default or bankruptcy proceedings for which there is no current market quotation; (vi) a security affected by currency controls or restrictions; and (vii) a security affected by a significant event (e.g., an event that occurs after the close of the markets on which the security is traded but before the time as of which a Fund’s net asset value is computed and that may materially affect the value of the Fund’s investment). Examples of events that may be “significant events” are government actions, natural disasters, armed conflicts and acts of terrorism.

The categorization of a value determined for investments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and does not necessarily correspond to the Fund’s perceived risk of investing in those securities.

Investments were transferred into Level 3 during the year ended December 31, 2019 due to changes in the quantity and quality of information, specifically the number of vendor quotes available to support the valuation of each investment and the increased incidence of stale prices, as assessed by the Adviser. Investments were transferred out of Level 3 during the year ended December 31, 2019 due to improvements in the quantity and quality of information, specifically the number of vendor quotes available to support the valuation of each investment and the reduced incidence of stale prices, as assessed by the Adviser.

The valuation techniques and significant amounts of unobservable inputs used in Fund’s Level 3 securities are outlined in the table below:

This column represents the direction change in the fair value of Level 3 securities that would result from an increase to the corresponding unobservable inputs. A decrease to the unobservable input would have the opposite effect. Significant increases and decreases of these inputs could result in significantly higher or lower gain value determination.

Cash

The Fund’s cash is maintained with a major United States financial institution, which is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Fund’s cash balance may exceed insurance limits at times.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income

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

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (concluded)

The difference between cost and fair value on open investments is reflected as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, and any change in that amount from prior period is reflected as change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment in the accompanying statement of operations.

Interest Expense and Fees on Borrowings

Interest expense and fees on borrowings relates to the Fund’s borrowings and includes interest paid plus any commitment fees on unused balances. They are recorded on an accrual basis.

Federal Income Tax Information

The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the requirements of Subchapter M of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute substantially all of its earnings to its shareholders. In early 2020, the Fund will pay an excise tax liability of approximately $25,767 relating to the tax year 2019.

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

Fund management has determined that the Fund has not taken any uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements. The Fund will file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and tax returns in certain other jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2019, the tax years ended December 31, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 remains subject to examination by the Fund’s major tax jurisdictions.

Distributions

The Fund intends to make regular monthly cash distributions of all or a portion of its investment company taxable income (which includes ordinary income and short-term capital gains) to common shareholders. The Fund also intends to pay any “net capital gains” (which is the excess of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses) annually. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. To the extent distributions exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes, they are reported as distributions to shareholders from return of capital.

Indemnifications

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

3. SENIOR LOANS

Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80.0% of its Managed Assets, defined as the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to borrowings for investment purposes), minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings for investment purposes), in fully collateralized, first lien corporate loans and notes. At December 31, 2019, 93.2% of the Fund’s Managed Assets were held in first lien Senior Loans.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) December 31, 2019

3. SENIOR LOANS (continued)

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

Senior Loans often require prepayments from excess cash flow or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturity shown. Senior loans typically pay interest at rates that are periodically determined on the basis of a floating benchmark lending rate plus a spread.

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

Second lien loans are generally second in line in terms of repayment priority. Second lien loans generally are subject to similar risks as those associated with investments in first lien Senior Loans. In addition, because second lien loans are subordinated in payment and/or lower in lien priority to first lien Senior Loans, they are subject to additional risk that the cash flow of the borrower and property securing the loan or debt may be insufficient to meet scheduled payments after giving effect to the senior secured obligations of the borrower. At December 31, 2019, the Fund had invested $5,391,680 in second lien loans.

The Fund may purchase assignments of, and participations in, Senior Loans originated, negotiated and structured by a U.S. or foreign commercial bank, insurance company, finance company or other financial institution (the “Agent”) for a lending syndicate of financial institutions (the “Lender”). When purchasing an assignment, the Fund succeeds to all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement with the same rights and obligations as the assigning Lender. Assignments may, however, be arranged through private negotiations between potential assignees and potential assignors, and the rights and obligations acquired by the purchaser of an assignment may differ from, and be more limited than, those held by the assigning Lender.

On July 27, 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that it intends to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021. It is expected that a transition away from the widespread use of LIBOR to alternative rates will occur over the course of the next several years. As a result of this transition, interest rates on financial instruments tied to LIBOR rates, as well as the revenue and expenses associated with those financial instruments, may be adversely affected. Further, any uncertainty regarding the continued use and reliability of LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate could adversely affect the value of our financial instruments tied to LIBOR rates. The U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, is considering replacing U.S. dollar LIBOR with a new index calculated by short term repurchase agreements, backed by Treasury securities, called the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The first publication of SOFR was released in April 2018. Whether or not SOFR attains market traction as a LIBOR replacement remains a question and the future of LIBOR at this time is uncertain. Additionally, it remains to be seen which variant of SOFR, Forward-Looking SOFR or SOFR in Arrears, will be selected. Upon LIBOR’s phase out, we will need to renegotiate the credit agreements extending beyond 2021 with our portfolio companies that utilize LIBOR as a factor in determining the interest rate to replace LIBOR with the new standard that is established.

3. SENIOR LOANS (concluded)

On January 31, 2020, the United Kingdom withdrew from the European Union (“Brexit”), with a transition period expected to last until December 31, 2020 (unless an extention is agreed between the United Kingdom and the European Union). During the transition period, existing arrangements between the United Kingdom and the European Union will remain in place while the United Kingdom and the European Union seek to negotiate a free trade agreement that will govern the trading relationship

between the United Kingdom and the European Union following the transition period. Brexit and related uncertainties has led to volatility in global financial markets, and in particular in the markets of the United Kingdom and across Europe, and may also lead to weakening in consumer, corporate and financial confidence in the United Kingdom and Europe. There is ongoing uncertainty regarding the terms of a free trade agreement, including whether an agreement will be reached by the end of the transition period, and the longer term economic, legal, political and social framework to be put in place between the United Kingdom and the European Union are unclear at this stage and are likely to lead to ongoing political and economic uncertainty and periods of exacerbated volatility in both the United Kingdom and in wider European markets for some time. This volatility and uncertainty may have an adverse effect on the economy generally and on our ability, and the ability of our portfolio companies, to execute our respective strategies and to receive attractive returns.

4. BORROWINGS

The Fund maintains a $65.0 million credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Societe Generale, New York Branch, expiring on October 2, 2020. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by the Fund’s assets as collateral. In accordance with the 1940 Act, the Fund’s borrowings under the Credit Facility will not exceed 331∕3% of the Fund’s Managed Assets at the time of borrowing.

The Credit Facility bears an unused commitment fee on the unused portion of the unused facility amount equal to 0.55% on any day that the outstanding principal balance is less than 85% of the Credit Facility. The per annum rate of interest for borrowings under the Credit Facility is equal to LIBOR for one month plus 0.95% per annum and is payable monthly.

At December 31, 2019, the Fund had borrowings outstanding of $48,000,000 at an interest rate of 2.96%. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the average borrowings under the Credit Facility and the average interest rate were $47,649,315 and 3.44%, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Fund incurred $96,754 for unused commitment fees, which is included in Interest Expense and Fees on Borrowings on the Statement of Operations. As of December 31, 2019, the Fund’s effective leverage represented 27.7% of the Fund’s Managed Assets. Due to the short term nature of the Credit Facility, face value approximates fair value at December 31, 2019.

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

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

•

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

•

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

•

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

4. BORROWINGS (concluded)

•

the potential for a decline in the value of an investment acquired through leverage, while the

•

Fund’s obligations under such leverage remains fixed; and

•

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

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

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

5. MANAGEMENT FEES, ADMINISTRATIVE FEES AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

The Adviser manages the Fund’s investment operations in accordance with the investment objectives and related policies of the Fund, as well as administers the business and affairs of the Fund.

The Fund pays the Adviser as compensation under an advisory agreement an annual fee in the amount of 0.80% of average daily Managed Assets.

The Adviser has agreed to limit, indefinitely, certain specified expenses (including investor relations/investor support servicing fees, treasury function expenses, compliance fees, professional fees, third-party fund administration and accounting fees, printing and mailing expenses, listing fees, fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” (as that term is defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund (the “Independent Trustees”), and other expenses) (“Specified Expenses”) borne by the Fund to an amount not to exceed 0.25% per year (the “Expense Cap”) of the Fund’s Managed Assets. The Expense Cap will be measured on an annual basis, based on the Fund’s Managed Assets on December 31st of each year. In any year the Specified Expenses exceed the Expense Cap, the Adviser will promptly reimburse the Fund to eliminate such excess. The Adviser will not seek reimbursement for any amounts paid to the Fund under this agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the estimated expenses exceeding the Expense Cap to be reimbursed by the Adviser amounted to $246,158 and are disclosed in the Statement of Operations.

As of December 31, 2019, the Fund has a receivable from the Adviser of $212,411 on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities for estimated expenses in excess of the Expense Cap.

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

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

The Fund pays each Independent Trustee a fee of $17,000 per annum, plus $3,000 per in person meeting and $500 per substantive conference call for serving as a trustee of the Fund. In addition, the Fund pays members of the Audit Committee a fee of $2,000 per annum and members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee a fee of $1,000 per annum. Interested trustees and officers of the Fund do not receive any remuneration from the Fund.

6. PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

For the year ended December 31, 2019, purchases and sales of investments, other than purchases and sales of money market investments, were $111,011,031 and $112,435,456 respectively.

7. CAPITAL

The following is a summary of share transactions for the year ended December 31, 2019:

	Shares of common stock, beginning of year					7,418,990
	Change in shares of common stock outstanding					—
	Shares of common stock, end of year					7,418,990

8. INCOME TAX INFORMATION

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed to not meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of December 31, 2019, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no other impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. Tax years ended December 31, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 will remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor its tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

The amounts and characteristics of tax basis distributions and composition of distributable earnings/(accumulated losses) are finalized at the fiscal year end; accordingly, tax basis balances have not been determined as of December 31, 2019.

As determined at December 31, 2019, certain permanent differences between financial and tax accounting were reclassified. These differences were primarily due to the differing tax treatment of certain investments and the payment of excise taxes. The amounts reclassified did not affect net assets. The decreased accumulated net realized loss on investments by $312,927, decreased accumulated net investment income by $283,625, and decreased paid-in-capital by $29,302.

The tax character of distributions paid by the Fund during the fiscal years ended December 31, are as follows:

	Ordinary Income			Long-Term Capital Gain
2018		$	8,583,771		$	—
2019		$	8,991,816		$	—

As of December 31, 2019 the Fund had accumulated net realized capital loss carryovers from security transactions for Federal income tax purposes as shown in the table below. This amount may be used to offset realized capital gains if any, for an unlimited time.

Short-Term			Long-Term			Total
$700,669			$9,382,619			$10,083,288

The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) eliminated the eight-year carryover period for capital losses that arise in taxable years beginning after its enactment date of December 22, 2010. Consequently, these capital losses can be carried forward for an unlimited period. However, capital losses with an expiration period may not be used to offset capital gains until all net capital losses without an expiration date have been utilized. Additionally, post-enactment capital loss carryovers will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses instead of as short-term capital losses as under prior law. The Fund does not have capital losses with no expiration.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) December 31, 2019

8. INCOME TAX INFORMATION (concluded)

Certain capital and qualified late year losses incurred after October 31, and within the current taxable year, are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund’s following taxable year. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, the Fund did not incur such losses.

At December 31, 2019, the tax components of net assets was as follows:

Undistributed Net Investment Income			Accumulated Net Realized Loss on Investments			Net Unrealized Depreciation on Investments
$767,002			$10,083,288			$6,678,280

At December 31, 2019, the cost basis of portfolio securities for federal income tax purposes is $177,121,893. Gross unrealized appreciation is $1,713,650, gross unrealized depreciation is $8,397,346 and net unrealized depreciation is $6,683,696. There is no difference between book and tax cost basis.

9. DELAYED DRAW LOAN COMMITMENTS

As of December 31, 2019, the Fund had the following unfunded loan commitments outstanding, which could be extended at the option of the borrower:

Loan	Principal Amount			Cost			Value			Net Unrealized Appreciation
Apro LLC (United Pacific), Delayed Draw Term Loan – First Lien		$	285,000		$	282,150		$	287,494		$	5,344
Heartland Dental LLC, Delayed Draw Term Loan – First Lien			24,457			24,334			24,407			73

Delayed draw loan commitments are marked to market on the relevant day of the valuation in accordance with the Fund’s valuation policy. Any related unrealized appreciation(depreciation) on unfunded delayed draw loan commitments is recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and the Statement of Operations.

10. SHAREHOLDER CONCENTRATION

As of December 31, 2019, based on public filings and/or information provided by such person, the following shareholder owns more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund:

Shareholder			Percent of Ownership
First Trust Portfolios LP					21.85%

The Fund’s market price may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors, financial intermediaries and other investors purchase or sell a large number of shares of the Fund. While such large shareholder transactions would not impact the Fund’s liquidity or market value of the Fund’s investments, such transactions could have an impact on the Fund’s market price and also impact the premium or discount of the market price to its NAV in a more volatile manner than trading by shareholders with smaller holdings.

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

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

On December 8, 2019, the Adviser and First Eagle Investment Management, LLC (“FEIM”) entered into a definitive agreement, whereby FEIM agreed, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, to merge a newly formed subsidiary of FEIM with and into the Adviser, with the Adviser as the surviving company (as previously defined, the “Transaction”). The Transaction closed on January 31, 2020. Immediately after closing of the Transaction, the Adviser changed its name to First Eagle Alternative Credit, LLC.

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded) December 31, 2019

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (concluded)

The consumation of the Transaction resulted in a change of control of the Adviser and an “assignment” of the then-current advisory agreement (“Prior Advisory Agreement”) between the Fund and the Adviser under the 1940 Act, causing the Prior Advisory Agreement to terminate automatically by its terms. On January 9, 2020, the Board unanimously approved an interim advisory agreement (“Interim Advisory Agreement”) that includes substantially the same terms as the Prior Advisory Agreement. The Interim Advisory Agreement became effective January 31, 2020.

On January 9, 2020, the Board also unanimously approved a new investment advisory agreement (the “New Advisory Agreement”) between the Fund and the Adviser. All material terms of the New Advisory Agreement will remain unchanged from the material terms of the Prior Advisory Agreement. The New Investment Advisory Agreement is subject to shareholder approval. Advisory fees earned under the Interim Advisory Agreement will be escrowed pending shareholder approval of the New Advisory Agreement.

On January 31, 2020, the Fund paid a regularly scheduled distribution in the amount of $0.101 per share to shareholders of record as of January 16, 2020.

On January 31, 2020, the Fund paid down $2 million on its credit facility, bringing the total borrowings outstanding to $46,000,000.

The Fund declared a regularly scheduled distribution in the amount of $0.101 per share payable on February 28, 2020 to shareholders of record as of February 18, 2020.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm December 31, 2019

To the Shareholders and the Board of Trustees of
THL Credit Senior Loan Fund

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of THL Credit Senior Loan Fund (the Fund) as of December 31, 2019, the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2019, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2019, by correspondence with the custodian and agent banks or by other appropriate audit procedures, where replies from custodian or agent banks were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
