By Sara Rosenberg

New York, Aug. 11 – Windstream Holdings Inc. extended the 101 soft call protection on its $750 million exit financing seven-year term loan B (B3) to one year from six months, added a ticking fee of the full spread after Aug. 25 and removed pricing step-downs, according to a market source.

Also, the MFN sunset was changed to 18 months from six months, the source said.

Pricing on the term loan remained at Libor plus 625 basis points with a 1% Libor floor and an original issue discount of 96.

On Tuesday, Windstream’s term loan began trading, with levels quoted at 96¼ bid, 97¼ offered, another source added.
