By Michelle Anderson

Rochester, N.H., March 29 - Orion Cable GmbH priced an upsized €400 million three-month floating-rate Euribor plus 1175 basis points PIK loan at 99 on Friday, according to a market source.

The 10-year loan was upsized from €365 million after a Thursday investor conference in London. The deal will be issued through Orion's parent company Escaline Sarl.
