Item 8.01. Other Events.

On March 12, 2018, THL Credit Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”), the external investment advisor to THL Credit, Inc. (the “Company”) informed the Company that it had adopted a stock trading plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to purchase up to $10,000,000 of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The Advisor previously informed the Company that it intended to enter into such a Plan. On March 14, 2018, the Company issued a press release announcing the adoption of the Plan by the Advisor. The text of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.

The terms of the Plan are designed to allow the Advisor to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock under the Plan at times when it otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws. The timing and amount of any Common Stock purchases under the Plan will depend on the terms and conditions of the Plan, the market price of the Common Stock and trading volumes, and no assurance can be given that any particular amount of common stock will be purchased.

The information disclosed under this Item 8.01, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing made under the Securities Act of 1933, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
