Frontier Communications Corporation (NASDAQ:FTR) announced today that it intends to offer $1.650 billion aggregate principal amount of First Lien Secured Notes due 2027 in a private transaction.

Frontier intends to use the proceeds from the offering to repay all outstanding indebtedness under its senior secured term loan A facility, which matures in March 2021, and its credit agreement with CoBank ACB, which matures in October 2021, and to pay related fees and expenses. In addition, upon the closing of the First Lien Secured Notes offering, Frontier expects to amend its credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to, among other things, extend the maturity date of at least $835 million of its $850 million revolving credit facility from February 2022 to February 2024 (subject to certain springing maturity dates). The maturity date of any revolver commitment not extended will remain February 2022. The offering of First Lien Secured Notes is subject to market and other conditions.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities, nor shall there be any sales of securities mentioned in this press release in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offers of the First Lien Secured Notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and to non-U.S. persons outside of the United States under Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The First Lien Secured Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
