In more happenings, Web.com Group Inc. raised the size of its first-lien term loan and adjusted pricing and original issue discounts on its first- and second-lien term loan tranches.

Also, Hillman Group Inc. widened the spread and issue price on its incremental term loan B and is lifting pricing on its existing term loan B to match the incremental spread, and Quorum Business Solutions (QBS Parent Inc.) moved up the commitment deadline on its first-lien term loan.

Recommitments were due at noon ET on Friday and around mid-afternoon the term loan debt broke for trading, with levels seen at par bid, par ½ offered before moving up to par ¼ bid, par ¾ offered, a trader added.
