Re: Response to Staff Comments Regarding Vertical Capital Income Fund
(File Nos. 333-173872; 811-22554) September 30, 2016 Annual Report
Dear Mr. Ellington:
This correspondence is submitted in response
to the Staff's follow up comments given on July 14, 2017 related comments originally given June 13, 2017, and addressed by response
letter date July 12, 2017; each related to the September 30, 2016 annual report ("Annual Report") for the Vertical Capital
Income Fund (the "Registrant" or "Fund"). We have included a summary of the comments and the Registrant's responses
thereto, which the Registrant has authorized Thompson Hine LLP to make on its behalf.
Comment 1. (Follow up to original
comment 8). With respect to mortgage notes held by the Fund that may be "restricted securities," please (i) confirm that
they can be resold without registration under the Securities Act of 1993 and thus not restricted securities, or (ii) provide a
supplementary undertaking to provide the information below with respect to investment in restricted securities that are consistent
with Article 12-12(note 8) of Reg. S-X, or (iii) provide an alternate explanation regarding the inapplicability of Article 12-12(note
8).
Article 12-12(note 8) calls for footnote
disclosure for each issue of restricted securities:
(a) as to each such issue:
(1) Acquisition date;
(2) carrying value per unit of investment
at date of related balance sheet, e.g., a percentage of current market value of unrestricted securities of the same issuer, etc.;
and
(3) the cost of such securities;
(b) as to
each issue acquired during the year preceding the date of the related balance sheet, the carrying value per unit of investment
of unrestricted securities of the same issuer at:
(1) The day the purchase price was
agreed to; and
(2) the day on which an enforceable
right to acquire such securities was obtained; and
(c) the aggregate
value of all restricted securities and the percentage which the aggregate value bears to net assets.
Response: Upon further consideration,
the Registrant confirms that mortgage notes are not restricted securities under Reg S-X as they can be re-sold to the public without
registration under the Securities Act of 1993. Here the Registrant observes that Reg. S-X defines restricted securities as "…securities
which cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered under the Securities Act of 1933…" (17 CFR 210.6-03).
Furthermore, the Registrant observes that mortgage notes are illiquid and primarily traded among institutions and not commonly
referred to by the investing public as securities considered for investment. The Registrant undertakes to assure its disclosures
reflect the illiquid nature of mortgage notes and will remove any disclosures that identify mortgage notes as restricted securities.
If you have any questions or additional
comments, please call the undersigned at 614-469-3238.
Sincerely,
/s/ Parker D. Bridgeport
