By Sara Rosenberg

New York, Jan. 23 – Microsemi Corp. upsized its senior secured covenant-light term loan B due Jan. 15, 2023 to $909.7 million from $674.7 million and set pricing at Libor plus 225 basis points, the low end of the Libor plus 225 bps to 250 bps talk, according to a market source.

As before, the term loan has no Libor floor, a par issue price and 101 soft call protection for six months.

Morgan Stanley Senior Funding Inc. is the lead bank on the deal.

Recommitments were due at 2:30 p.m. ET on Monday, the source said.

Proceeds will be used to reprice an existing $674.7 million term loan B from Libor plus 300 bps with a 0.75% Libor floor, and the upsized amount will be used to pay down revolver borrowings, the source added.

Microsemi is an Aliso Viejo, Calif.-based provider of semiconductor solutions.
