  RE:   THL Credit, Inc. Registration Statement on Form N-2
      (File No. 333-159636) filed originally on June 1, 2009 (the
      “Registration Statement”)                                                                                 

Dear Sir:

THL Credit, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby requests, pursuant to Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that the effective date of the Registration Statement be accelerated to 4:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on April 21, 2010, or as soon thereafter as practicable.

The Company respectfully requests that it be notified of such effectiveness by a telephone call to either Michael Hoffman of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP at (212) 735-3406 or Richard Cardillo of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP at (212) 735-2459 and that such effectiveness also be confirmed in writing.

The Company hereby acknowledges:

 

  Ÿ  

should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;

 

  Ÿ  

the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and


  Ÿ  

the Company may not assert this action as defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

 

Very truly yours,
THL CREDIT, INC.
