Re: Crescent Capital BDC, Inc.

Shelf Registration Statement on Form N-2

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special New York counsel to Crescent Capital BDC, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration statement on Form N-2 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed on the date hereof by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). The Registration Statement relates to the issuance and sale by the Company from time to time, pursuant to Rule 415 of the General Rules and Regulations of the Commission promulgated under the Securities Act (the “Rules and Regulations”), of an unspecified amount of securities of the Company, consisting of, among other things, (i) debt securities of the Company (the “Debt Securities”), which may be issued in one or more series under an indenture, dated as of November 18, 2014 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, and (ii) such indeterminate amount of Debt Securities as may be issued upon conversion, exchange or exercise, as applicable, of any Debt Securities or other securities of the Company.

This opinion letter is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of sub paragraph (l) of item 25.2 of part C of Form N-2.

In rendering the opinion stated herein, we have examined and relied upon the following:

(a) the Registration Statement; and

(b) an executed copy of the Indenture.

We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records of the Company and such agreements, certificates and receipts of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company and others, and such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinion stated below.

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, including electronic signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photocopied copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. As to any facts relevant to the opinion stated herein that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others and of public officials, including the factual representations and warrants contained in the Transaction Documents.

We do not express any opinion with respect to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York (“Opined-on Law”). The Securities may be issued from time to time on a delayed or continuous basis, and this opinion is limited to the laws, including the rules and regulations, as in effect on the date hereof, which laws are subject to change with possible retroactive effect.

As used herein, “Transaction Documents” means the Indenture, and the supplemental indentures thereto and any applicable underwriting or purchase agreement.

The opinion stated below presumes that all of the following (collectively, the “general conditions”) shall have occurred prior to the issuance of the Debt Securities:

(i) the Registration Statement, as finally amended (including all necessary post-effective amendments), has become effective under the Securities Act;

(ii) an appropriate prospectus supplement or term sheet with respect to such Debt Securities has been prepared, delivered and filed in compliance with the Securities Act and the applicable Rules and Regulations;

(iii) the applicable Transaction Documents shall have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto;

(iv) the board of directors of the Company, including any duly authorized committee thereof, shall have taken all necessary corporate action to approve the issuance and sale of such Debt Securities and related matters and appropriate officers of the Company have taken all related action as directed by or under the direction of the board of directors of the Company; and

(v) the terms of the applicable Transaction Documents and the issuance and sale of such Debt Securities have been duly established in conformity with the articles of amendment and restatement of the Company so as not to violate any applicable law, the articles of amendment and restatement of the Company or the by-laws of the Company, or result in a default under or breach of any agreement or instrument binding upon the Company, and so as to comply with any requirement or restriction imposed by any court or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and assumptions stated herein, we are of the opinion that, with respect to any series of Debt Securities offered by the Company (the “Offered Debt Securities”), when (a) the general conditions shall have been satisfied, (b) the issuance, sale and terms of the Offered Debt Securities and related matters have been approved and established in conformity with the applicable Transaction Documents and (c) the certificates evidencing the Offered Debt Securities have been issued in a form that complies with the provisions of the applicable Transaction Documents and have been duly executed and authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and any other applicable Transaction Documents and issued and sold or otherwise distributed in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Transaction Documents upon payment of the agreed-upon consideration therefor, the Offered Debt Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms under the laws of the State of New York.

The opinion stated herein is subject to the following qualifications:

(a) we do not express any opinion with respect to the effect on the opinion stated herein of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, preference and other similar laws or governmental orders affecting creditors’ rights generally, and the opinion stated herein is limited by such laws and governmental orders and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law);

(b) we do not express any opinion with respect to the effect on the opinion stated herein of (i) the compliance or non-compliance of any party to any of the Transaction Documents with any laws, rules or regulations applicable to such party or (ii) the legal status or legal capacity of any party to any of the Transaction Documents;

(c) we do not express any opinion with respect to any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to any party to any of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to any such party or any of its affiliates as a result of the specific assets or business operations of such party or such affiliates;

(d) we do not express any opinion with respect to any securities, antifraud, consumer credit, debt collection, privacy, derivatives or commodities laws, rules or regulations, Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or laws, rules or regulations relating to national security;

In addition, in rendering the foregoing opinion we have further assumed that:

(a) the Company (i) is duly incorporated and is validly existing and in good standing, (ii) has requisite legal status and legal capacity under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and (iii) has complied and will comply with all aspects of the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization in connection with the transactions contemplated by, and the performance of its obligations under, the Transaction Documents to which the Company is a party;

(b) the Company has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform all its obligations under each of the Transaction Documents to which the Company is a party;

(e) neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents to which the Company is a party nor the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder, including the issuance and sale of the applicable Debt Securities, requires or will require the consent, approval, licensing or authorization of, or any filing, recording or registration with, any governmental authority under any law, rule or regulation of any jurisdiction.

We hereby consent to the reference to our firm under the heading “Legal Matters” in the prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement.
