Registration Statement on Form S-1
File No. 333-211720
Dear
Mr. Slivka:
Pursuant to Rule 461 of the General Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Valvoline Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky (the
“Company”), hereby requests that the effective date of the above-referenced Registration Statement be accelerated so that the Registration Statement, as then amended, will become effective under the Securities Act by 4:00 p.m., New
York City time, on September 22, 2016, or as soon thereafter as practicable.
In connection with this request, the Company
acknowledges that:
•
should the Commission or the staff of the Commission (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;
•
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
•
the Company may not assert Staff comments and the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
* * *
It would be appreciated if, as soon as the Registration Statement is declared effective, you
would so inform the Company’s counsel, Andrew J. Pitts of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP at (212) 474-1620, and then send written confirmation to the addressees listed on the cover of the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
Valvoline Inc.
