155 EAST: Names Neil Kiefer as Director of Tropicana Finance
------------------------------------------------------------
Neil Kiefer was appointed to the management board of 155 East
Tropicana LLC and to the board of directors of the Company's
wholly-owned subsidiary 155 East Tropicana Finance Corp. to fill
the seats vacated by the resignation of John T. Blakely.  Based on
this appointment, certain required notifications have been made to
the Nevada gaming authorities.

Mr. Kiefer was appointed to the Company's management board by
Florida Hooters, LLC, owner of 66.67% of the Company's outstanding
membership interests.  Pursuant to the Company's Amended and
Restated Operating Agreement, Florida Hooters, LLC has the right
to select 6 members of the Company's management board.  Mr. Kiefer
will remain on the Company's management board until (i) his
resignation, or (ii) his removal, with or without cause, by
Florida Hooters, LLC.

Mr. Kiefer currently serves as the Company's Chief Executive
Officer and as the President of 155 East Tropicana Finance Corp.
See Item 13 of the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2009 for a description of related-party transactions between
the Company and Mr. Kiefer, which disclosure is incorporated
herein by reference.

                      About 155 East Tropicana

Las Vegas, Nev.-based 155 East Tropicana, LLC, was formed in
June 2004 to acquire the Hotel San Remo Casino and Resort, a
casino hotel located in Las Vegas, Nevada, from Eastern & Western
Hotel Corporation.  The Hotel San Remo was renovated and re-
branded and is now known as Hooters Casino Hotel.

                           *     *     *

According to the TCR on April 22, 2010, Moody's Investors Service
has withdrawn the ratings of 155 East Tropicana LLC for business
reasons.  These ratings withdrawn include the 'Ca' Corporate
family rating.

The Company's balance sheet at March 31, 2010, showed
$122.7 million in total assets and $171.8 million in total
liabilities, for a stockholder's deficit of $49.0 million.


ADVANSTAR INC: S&P Hikes Outlook on 'CCC+' Rating to Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------
On July 8, 2010, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services revised its
rating outlook on Woodland Hills, Calif.-based Advanstar Inc. to
stable from negative.  Ratings on the company, including the
'CCC+' corporate credit rating, were affirmed.  S&P rates
Advanstar Inc. on a consolidated basis with operating subsidiary
Advanstar Communications Inc.

"S&P's 'CCC+' corporate credit rating on Advanstar reflects its
expectation that the company's leverage will remain high, interest
coverage will remain thin, and liquidity will be limited," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Tulip Lim.  "It also reflects
Advanstar's fashion industry concentration and exposure to
unfavorable secular pressures facing its publishing segment."

The company is an independent business-to-business trade show
operator and publisher serving four industry segments: fashion,
licensing, life sciences, and power sports.  Trade publishing
accounts for roughly 35% of total revenue and is sensitive to
cyclical advertising demand in the company's end markets because
of a lack of circulation revenue.  The publishing segment is also
facing secular pressures in light of competition from Internet-
based media, which has low barriers to entry.  The company also
produces trade shows and is heavily dependent on its MAGIC events,
which are the dominant U.S. apparel industry trade shows.

While the publishing division remains weak, operating performance
has started to pick up for the trade show division.  During the
first quarter of 2010, Advanstar's revenue declined 2.5%, while
EBITDA increased 20.9%, reflecting cost reductions and growth in
the higher-margin exposition segment.  The exposition segment
reported a 3.5% revenue increase during the quarter, primarily due
to improved performance of its MAGIC trade show.  The publishing
segment reported an 18.1% revenue drop.  Lease-adjusted debt to
EBITDA for the 12 months ended March 31, 2010, was steep, at
roughly 12.4x, but down from 14.0x at fiscal year-end Dec. 31,
2009.  For the same period, unadjusted EBITDA coverage of total
interest expense, which includes the mark-to-market gain or loss
on interest rate swaps, was scant at 1.0x.

For the 12 months ended March 31, 2010, discretionary cash flow
was still negative, but the deficit narrowed compared to fiscal
2009.  The lower interest burden from the restructuring completed
on Sept. 25, 2009, which reduced debt by roughly 40%, along with
the roll-off of swap agreements, could boost interest coverage and
help discretionary cash flow reach breakeven this year, as long as
EBITDA increases do not reverse.

Angiotech's common shares closed below the required minimum of
$1.00 per share for the previous 30 consecutive business days (May
21, 2010 to July 2, 2010).

he notice also indicated that, in accordance with Nasdaq's Listing

for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will notify
Angiotech that it has regained compliance with Rule 5450(a)(1).

In the event that Angiotech does not regain compliance with Rule

delisting.  Alternatively, Angiotech may be eligible for an
additional grace period if it meets the initial listing standards,
with the exception of bid price, for The Nasdaq Capital Market.

As previously disclosed, Angiotech's management and Board of
Directors have been and are continuing to evaluate a broad range
of restructuring, reorganization and strategic activities.

transaction will be consummated or that the consummation of any
such transaction will resolve the listing deficiency.

BAY NATIONAL BANK: Closed; Bay Bank, FSB Assumes All Deposits
-------------------------------------------------------------
Bay National Bank of Baltimore, Md., was closed on Friday, July 9,
2010, by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which
appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as receiver.
To protect the depositors, the FDIC entered into a purchase and
assumption agreement with Bay Bank, FSB of Lutherville, Md., to
assume all of the deposits of Bay National Bank.

The two branches of Bay National Bank will reopen during normal
business hours as branches of Bay Bank, FSB.  Depositors of Bay
National Bank will automatically become depositors of Bay Bank,
FSB.  Deposits will continue to be insured by the FDIC, so there
is no need for customers to change their banking relationship in
order to retain their deposit insurance coverage.  Customers of
Bay National Bank should continue to use their existing branch
until they receive notice from Bay Bank, FSB that it has completed
systems changes to allow other Bay Bank, FSB branches to process
their accounts as well.

As of March 31, 2010, Bay National Bank had around $282.2 million
in total assets and $276.1 million in total deposits.  Bay Bank,
FSB did not pay the FDIC a premium for the deposits of Bay
National Bank.  In addition to assuming all of the deposits of the
failed bank, Bay Bank, FSB agreed to purchase essentially all of
the assets of the failed bank.

Customers who have questions about the transaction can call the
FDIC toll-free at 1-800-323-6111.  Interested parties also can
visit the FDIC's Web site at:

     http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/baynatlmd.html

The FDIC estimates that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund
will be $17.4 million.  Compared to other alternatives, Bay Bank,
FSB's acquisition was the "least costly" resolution for the FDIC's
DIF.  Bay National Bank is the 87th FDIC-insured institution to
fail in the nation this year, and the second in Maryland.  The
last FDIC-insured institution closed in the state was Waterfield
Bank, Germantown, on March 5, 2010.

The key terms of the Plan include:

   * The Company's senior credit facility with Wells Fargo
     Foothill will be paid in full.

   * The Company's senior secured noteholders will exchange their
     notes and claims thereunder for a new credit facility of
     $62,500,000.

   * The Company's senior subordinated noteholders will receive
     warrants to purchase equity interests in reorganized Black
     Gaming in exchange for their notes and claims.

   * To the extent permitted under the Bankruptcy Code, general
     unsecured claims, including vendors, will be paid in cash.

   * Anthony Toti, Newport Global Advisors or one of its
     affiliates, Robert R. Black, Sr. and one or more parties to
     be designated by Michael Gaughan will contribute cash in
     excess of $18,250,000 in exchange for 100% of the new equity
     interests in reorganized Black Gaming.

   * Robert R. Black, Sr. will remain C.E.O. Anthony Toti will
     remain C.O.O., and Sean P. McKay will remain C.F.O.

According to the final Plan, on the substantial consummation date
and after completion of all steps necessary for the implementation
of the Plan, Black Gaming will be dissolved and all Black Gaming
equity interests will be cancelled and extinguished.  The New
Black Gaming organizational documents will be executed and, to the
extent required, filed with the Nevada Secretary.  The New Black
Gaming organizational documents will (i) include, among other
things, a provision prohibiting the issuance of non-voting equity
securities; (ii) authorize the issuance of New Black Gaming Equity
interests in an amount not less than the amount necessary to
permit the distributions thereof required or contemplated by the
Plan; and (iii) to the extent necessary or appropriate, include

Plan and the transactions contemplated.

Additionally, in connection with any cancellation of debt income,

BLOCKBUSTER INC: Enters Employment Deal With CEO James Keyes
------------------------------------------------------------
Blockbuster Inc. entered into an employment agreement with James
W. Keyes, the Company's Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive
Officer, effective as of July 2, 2007.

Effective June 30, 2010, the Company and Mr. Keyes entered into an
amended and restated employment agreement that will govern the
terms of Mr. Keyes' employment with the Company going forward.
The amended and restated employment agreement extends the term of
Mr. Keyes' employment agreement for one year to June 30, 2011.
The amended and restated employment agreement does not increase
the annual rate of Mr. Keyes's base salary, but does provide that
Mr. Keyes will participate in the Company's Senior Executive
Annual Performance Bonus Plan and that his target annual cash
performance bonus will be equal to 100% of his base salary.

The annual bonus actually payable to Mr. Keyes may range from
0% to 300% of the target bonus based on actual performance
achievement relative to the applicable performance goals.  The
amended and restated employment agreement also provides Mr. Keyes
with a retention bonus arrangement that consists of both cash and
equity features.  The cash portion of the retention bonus is equal
to $650,000, which is payable to Mr. Keyes on June 30, 2011,
provided he remains employed on that date.

The equity portion of the retention bonus consists of an award of
1,250,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock, which will
be issued to Mr. Keyes on June 30, 2011 under the Company's Long-
Term Management Incentive Plan, if he remains employed by the
Company on that date.  However, in the event shares of the
Company's Class A common stock are not publicly traded on the date
the equity award becomes due, Mr. Keyes will be entitled to
receive a cash payment equal to $500,000 on June 30, 2011, as long
as he is employed by the Company on that date.  The amended and
restated employment agreement also extends the term of Mr. Keyes'
outstanding stock options to seven years, but otherwise does not
affect Mr. Keyes' options.

The amended and restated employment agreement revises the good
reason termination trigger in Mr. Keyes' agreement, and will allow
Mr. Keyes to leave the employ of the Company for good reason if
his title, duties or responsibilities are significantly reduced or
his base salary or annual target bonus opportunity is materially
reduced, provided certain notice and cure requirements are
satisfied.  Upon a termination of employment by Mr. Keyes for good
reason or by the Company without cause, the amended and restated
employment agreement provides that Mr. Keyes will be entitled to
receive:

     i) accrued but unpaid base salary and vacation time,

    ii) pro-rata vesting of any outstanding equity awards held by
        Mr. Keyes that are subject solely to time-based vesting
        conditions,

   iii) the ability to exercise his vested stock options in
        accordance with the Company's Long-Term Management
        Incentive Plan,

    iv) a pro-rata annual performance bonus for the fiscal year in
        which the termination of employment occurs,

     v) a lump sum payment equal to 24 months' worth of Mr. Keyes'
        base salary, and

    vi) continued health plan eligibility for Mr. Keyes, his
        spouse and his eligible dependents for 24 months or, if
        earlier, until Mr. Keyes is eligible for comparable
        coverage under the plan of a subsequent employer.

The noncompete restrictions in Mr. Keyes' amended and restated
employment agreement have been revised so that they continue to
apply for a one year period following termination of Mr. Keyes'
employment even if he is terminated involuntarily.

Blockbuster's quarterly report on Form 10-Q showed a net loss of
$65.4 million on $939.4 million of revenue for the 13 weeks ended
April 4, 2010, compared with net income of $27.7 million on
$1.086 billion of revenue for the 13 weeks ended April 5, 2009.

The Company's balance sheet as of April 4, 2010, showed
$1.319 billion in assets and $1.693 billion of liabilities, for a
stockholders' deficit of $374.2 million.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, in Dallas, expressed substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern
following Blockbuster's 2009 results.


BLOCKBUSTER INC: Reports Low Vote Turnout for Stock Proposal
------------------------------------------------------------
Blockbuster Inc. reported its preliminary tabulation figures
received from the inspector of election for the Company's 2010
annual meeting show that while the company's proposal to convert
each outstanding share of Class B common stock into Class A common
stock and the company's reverse stock split proposal each received
the overwhelming approval of votes cast, due to a low vote
turnout, the proposals did not receive the required affirmative
vote of the majority of the votes of the outstanding Class A and
Class B shares voting as a single class.  Of the approximately
289.9 million total votes outstanding, the conversion proposal
received approximately 141.2 million votes in favor and the
reverse stock split proposal received approximately 126.1 million
votes in favor.

The proposal to effect the reverse stock split was made in part to
allow the company to take action to facilitate regaining
compliance with the continued listing criteria of the NYSE, on
which both the Class A and Class B common stock currently trade.
Among such criteria is the requirement that common stock maintain
a $1.00 minimum average closing price.

In November 2009, we were notified by the NYSE that our Class A
common stock did not satisfy the NYSE's continued listing standard
that requires the average closing price of a listed security to be
no less than $1.00 per share over a consecutive 30-trading-day
period. Under the NYSE's rules, we had through the date of the
annual meeting within which to cure this deficiency.  Because the
reverse stock split proposal was not approved by the requisite
number of votes, the NYSE has informed the company that it intends
to begin the process to delist both the Class A and Class B common
stock.

At the annual meeting each of the company's director nominees was
elected, the company's "say-on-pay" proposal was approved and
the ratification of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as the
company's independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal
2010 was approved.

CALPINE CORP: Bank Debt Trades at 0.83% Off in Secondary Market
---------------------------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which Calpine
Corporation is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 99.17
cents-on-the-dollar during the week ended Friday, July 9, 2010,
according to data compiled by Loan Pricing Corp. and reported in
The Wall Street Journal.  This represents an increase of 0.33
percentage points from the previous week, The Journal relates.
The Company pays 550 basis points above LIBOR to borrow under the
facility, which matures on May 31, 2017.  The bank debt is not
rated by Moody's and Standard & Poor's.  The debt is one of the
biggest gainers and losers among 204 widely quoted syndicated
loans with five or more bids in secondary trading for the week
ended Friday.

According to the Troubled Company Reporter on June 3, 2010,
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B1 rating to Calpine
Corporation's (B1 Corporate Family Rating) $400 million 8% senior
secured notes due 2019.  The rating outlook for Calpine is stable.

Proceeds from the offering were used to repay a portion of the
debt outstanding under the company's senior secured term loan
reducing the amount of the secured term loan that matures in March
2014 by $394 million to approximately $4.231 billion.  Calpine has
stated publicly that it plans to refinance the secured term loan
prior to its 2014 maturity, targeting a debt maturity profile that
results in approximately $2 billion or less in corporate
maturities in any given year.  Calpine began implementing this
refinancing strategy in November 2009 with a $1.2 billion 7.25%
senior secured note offering due 2017 and the completion of this
$400 million financing is a continuation of that strategy.

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Calpine Corporation is a major
U.S. independent power company with assets of $17.5 billion at
March 31, 2010.  With the expected completion of the Conectiv
acquisition, Calpine will have aggregate generating capacity of
28,297 MW.


CAPRI I: Section 341(a) Meeting Scheduled for August 19
-------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Trustee for Region 17 will convene a meeting of Capri I,
LLC's creditors on August 19, 2010, at 1:00 p.m.  The meeting will
be held at 300 Las Vegas Boulevard, South, Room 1500, Las Vegas,
NV 89101.

This is the first meeting of creditors required under Section
341(a) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in all bankruptcy cases.

All creditors are invited, but not required, to attend.  This
Meeting of Creditors offers the one opportunity in a bankruptcy
proceeding for creditors to question a responsible office of the
Debtor under oath about the company's financial affairs and
operations that would be of interest to the general body of
creditors.

Las Vegas, Nevada-based Capri I, LLC, filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection on June 30, 2010 (Bankr. D. Nev. Case No.
10-22206).  David A. Colvin, Esq., at Marquis & Aurbach, assists
the Company in its restructuring effort.  The Company listed
$50,000,001 to $100,000,000 in assets and $10,000,001 to

CAPRIUS INC: Repurchases Shares of Convertible Preferred Stock
--------------------------------------------------------------
Caprius Inc. repurchased an aggregate of 79,031 shares of its
Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, 4,900 shares of its Series E
Convertible Preferred Stock and 17,966 shares of its Series F
Convertible Preferred Stock, together with underlying exercisable
warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 2,469,295 shares of
Common Stock, from Special Situations Fund III QP, L. P. and
Special Situations Private Equity Fund, L.P. for $10,000.

After the sale, SSF Funds have no equity interest in the
Registrant.  In connection with their sale of securities, the SSF
Funds also waived all of the accrued dividends of the Preferred
Stock which they sold.  The Registrant estimates that the
aggregate amount of the accrued dividends waived was $484,000.

As a result of the repurchases, the Company's outstanding
Preferred Stock consists of 65,290 shares of Series D Convertible
Preferred Stock, 4,200 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred
Stock and 60,000 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock.
The repurchases did not affect the currently outstanding 5,431,865
shares of Common Stock, but did reduce the number of shares
reserved for issuance upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and
exercise of warrants and options to 39,364,100 shares.

CATALYST PAPER: Closes Elk Falls Paper Mill Permanently
-------------------------------------------------------
Catalyst Paper said it is permanently closing its Elk Falls paper
mill near Campbell River, British Columbia in September.  This
facility has been indefinitely curtailed since February 2009.

"[Tuesday's] news is a disappointing outcome for mill employees
and families, for the community, and for our business," said
Catalyst President and CEO Kevin J. Clarke.  "The steep decline in
commodity paper markets, coupled with uncompetitive labour and tax
costs were contributing factors that could not be overcome."

"Adaptation has always been the key to survival," Clarke noted,
"and the uncertainty regarding the future of this mill was
detrimental to all our operations and had to come to an end.  With
this difficult decision behind us, we can now focus our sales and
marketing strategies and production planning around mills that
still have the potential to operate competitively which is a
better basis to future-focus our business overall."

In a related decision, Catalyst also announced the permanent
closure of its paper recycling operation in Coquitlam, British
Columbia.  The facility, which supplied the company's Crofton
mill, was indefinitely idled in February due to reduced recycled
pulp requirements, combined with higher cost and constrained
availability of quality recovered paper.  All employees were laid
off at the time.

The associated asset impairment charge, including severance costs,
is estimated at $302 million and will be reflected in the
company's second quarter results.  Only a small number of
employees will continue to be required to manage and decommission
the facility resulting in approximately 100 Elk Falls employees
being immediately impacted by the permanent closure.

The Elk Falls mill began operation in 1952, and at its peak,
produced 784,000 tonnes of pulp, paper and kraft paper annually.

                       About Catalyst Paper

Based in Richmond, British Columbia, in Canada, Catalyst Paper
Corporation (TSX:CTL) manufactures diverse specialty mechanical
printing papers, newsprint and pulp.  Its customers include
retailers, publishers and commercial printers in North America,
Latin America, the Pacific Rim and Europe.  With six facilities
located in British Columbia and Arizona, Catalyst has a combined
annual production capacity of 2.5 million tonnes.

                          *     *     *

In mid-March 2010, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its
long-term corporate credit rating on Catalyst Paper to 'SD'
(selective default) from 'CC'.  Given the weak outlook for the
company's specialty paper and newsprint segments, S&P expects
Catalyst to continue to face challenging market conditions in
2010.

Moody's Investors Service also downgraded Catalyst's Corporate
Family Rating to Caa1 from B3 while revising the Probability of
Default Rating to Caa1/LD from Caa3, with the "/LD" suffix
signaling a "limited default".  Catalyst's CFR downgrade
anticipates a marked deterioration in the company's financial
performance over the coming year, with significant EBITDA erosion
compared to 2009 levels and negative free cash flow generation.


CENTAUR LLC: U.S. Trustee Fights Break-Up Fee for Asset Sale
------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Centaur LLC's plan to offer a
breakup fee in connection with the $7.5 million sale of its
Colorado assets has come under fire from the U.S. trustee, who
claims the move runs afoul of case precedent holding that such
fees can't be used to give a favored purchaser an advantage over
other bidders.

Indianapolis, Indiana-based, Centaur, LLC, aka Centaur Indiana,
LLC -- http://www.centaurgaming.net/-- is an company involved in
the development and operation of entertainment venues focused on
horse racing and gaming.

The Company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on March 6,
2010 (Bankr. D. Delaware Case No. 10-10799).  Jeffrey M. Schlerf,
Esq., at Fox Rothschild LLP, assists the Company in its
restructuring effort.  The Company estimated its assets and debts
at $500,000,001 to $1,000,000,000 as of the Petition Date.


CENTRO NP: Fitch Affirms 'CCC' IDR; Hires Firm to Work on Plan
--------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the Issuer Default Rating and the issue
ratings for Centro NP LLC:

  -- IDR at 'CCC';
  -- $703 million senior unsecured notes at 'CCC/RR4';
  -- $305 million revolving facility at 'B+/RR1'.

Fitch has also removed the Negative Outlook as Fitch typically
does not have Outlooks for IDRs below 'B-'.

The affirmation reflects the high levels of leverage of Super LLC,
Centro NP's direct parent, on a consolidated basis.  Super LLC, in
conjunction with its parent, Centro Properties Group, has hired
advisers to work on a restructuring plan and Fitch believes that
the company will successfully address near-term debt maturities.
Super LLC faces over $3.2 billion of debt maturities in 2010,
including the cross defaulted debt renegotiated in January 2009,
namely the Super Bridge Loan ($1.7 billion at March 31, 2010),
Centro NP's revolver ($305.5 million), Residual JV New Money
Facility ($345.5 million) and the Preston Ridge Facility
($105 million).

While Centro NP is a stronger credit on a standalone basis than
its parent Super LLC, the ratings are based on the consolidated
credit profile of Super LLC due to these strong strategic,
operational and legal ties between Centro NP, Super LLC and
Residual JV, which is owned by Centro NP (49%) and Super LLC
(51%):

  -- Centro NP's revolving facility is cross defaulted with Super
     LLC's bridge loan and Residual JV's Preston Ridge Facility.

  -- Super LLC's equity interest in Centro NP collateralizes the
     Super Bridge Loan.

  -- Centro NP does not have its own Board of Directors.  Decision
     making is made on a consolidated basis by the Board of Centro
     Properties Group, Super's ultimate parent.  In addition,
     following the acquisition by CNP, Centro NP's employees were
     moved to a separate joint venture controlled by CNP for tax
     purposes and to allow employees to provide services to CNP's
     other U.S. affiliates.  As such, the company technically has
     no employees.

  -- CNP, through Super LLC, has increased Centro NP's standalone
     leverage with the transfer of unencumbered assets to
     Residual.

  -- CNP's U.S. retail portfolio, which is comprised of 600
     properties, is managed on an integrated basis by the U.S.
     management team.

  -- Proceeds from Residual JV's new money facility have been
     partly used to pay down Centro NP's debt maturities.

While Fitch does not have access to financial statements for Super
LLC, it does have access to the financial statements for Residual
JV, the equity of which is Super LLC's only other major asset
beyond its equity investment in Centro NP, as well as the balance
of Super LLC's bridge loan, its only debt.  Residual JV began
publishing financial statements as of Sept. 30, 2009 (June 30th
fiscal year end).

  -- Notwithstanding Centro NP's stronger credit profile on a
     standalone basis, its credit metrics have been deteriorating
     as a result of the gradual transfer of assets to Residual JV
     coupled with the weaknesses in the retail environment.  Since
     the acquisition of New Plan Excel Realty Trust, Inc. by CNP
     in 2007, CNP transferred 121 unencumbered assets to Residual
     JV in order to facilitate property level financing.  As of
     Dec. 31, 2009, Centro NP's consolidated portfolio was
     comprised of 150 properties ($2.4 billion of undepreciated
     book value), down from 290 properties ($3.5 billion of
     undepreciated book values at pre-merger values) as of Dec.
     31, 2006.  However, pursuant to a successful Consent
     Solicitation with bondholders in the fourth quarter of 2009,
     Centro NP is not permitted to transfer any real property to
     any unconsolidated affiliates or equity owners of Centro NP
     until January 2014.

  -- As a result of weaknesses in the retail industry, occupancy
     for Centro NP's total portfolio, including joint ventures,
     declined to 88% at Dec. 31, 2009 from 92% at Dec. 31, 2007.
     This decline was driven in large part by exposure to bankrupt
     retailers, namely Circuit City, Linen's N' Things, Goody's
     and Steve and Barry's.  Occupancy on Centro NP's consolidated
     pool of assets was 86% at Dec. 31, 2009, slightly below that
     of Residual JV (88% at Dec. 31, 2009), which reflects some
     selection bias in the assets transferred to Residual JV given
     that they were selected as part of debt negotiations with
     lenders.  Further occupancy deterioration should be somewhat
     buffered by Centro NP's historically defensive portfolio,
     with centers largely anchored by grocery stores and national
     discount chains.

On a consolidated basis, Fitch estimates that Super LLC's fixed
charge coverage (defined as recurring operating EBITDA less
straight line rents and the amortization of below market leases
and recurring capital expenditures divided by interest incurred)
was 1.7 times for the first quarter of 2010.  While this is high
for the rating, this partly reflects the benefit from low LIBOR
rates as a considerable amount of consolidated debt is floating
rate (March 31, 2010: 65% of the total) as well as low credit
spreads in relation to Super LLC's credit profile.

The ratings further reflect that Centro NP's unencumbered asset
coverage has deteriorated as a result of the transfer of
unencumbered assets to Residual JV.  The gross book value of
unencumbered assets dropped to approximately $1.3 billion at
Dec. 31, 2009, from $2.8 billion at Dec. 31, 2007.  While Centro
NP remains in compliance with its bond covenants as of March 31,
2010, unencumbered assets are comprised largely of unencumbered
real estate and equity investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries
($525 million at Dec. 31, 2009).  Fitch views the latter as weak
protection for unsecured bondholders given that in a liquidation
scenario, recoveries of equity from unconsolidated subsidiaries,
particularly its largest subsidiary, Residual JV, will likely be
limited given that Super LLC lenders have second liens on assets
within Residual JV.

The recovery ratings of Centro NP reflect Fitch's view that in the
event of a default and subsequent liquidation, Centro NP would be
in a much weaker standalone financial position than today.  Centro
NP's parent, Super LLC, is highly levered and as a result, has
transferred properties to Residual JV over time, weakening Centro
NP's financial profile and the position of bondholders.  While
there is currently a restriction on the transfer of real property
to both Super LLC and Residual JV, there are no restrictions on
the transfer of other assets, such as cash proceeds from asset
sales and refinancing.  As such, Fitch believes that at the point
of a default, Centro NP would be in breach of its unencumbered
asset covenant.  This analysis results in estimated recoveries for
the senior unsecured notes to be below average.

Centro NP is a real estate company focusing on the ownership,
management and development of community and neighborhood shopping
centers with total assets of $3.3 billion at March 31, 2010.
Centro NP operates a national portfolio of shopping centers across
the U.S. and its tenant base has historically been characterized
by a high concentration of needs-based retailers, such as
supermarkets, as well as national discount chains.  CNP is a
Melbourne-based company focused on the ownership, management, and
development of retail shopping centers.


CHRYSLER LLC: Appeal Against Asset Sale Order Denied
----------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reports that the U.S. District Court denied an
appeal filed by Crain CDJ, LLC, an Arkansas automobile dealer, and
certain Wisconsin automobile dealers of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
order approving the sale of substantially all Company assets to an
entity known as New CarCo Acquisition.

The Court order states - among other things, "Since this Court is
bound to give Judge Gonzalez's unambiguous words their plain
meaning, see United States v. Spallone, 399 F.3d 415,421 (2d Cir.
2005), this Court interprets the Bankruptcy Court's order to mean
what it says: Appellants have 'no further rights,' whether direct
rights (to operate as a dealer of the Debtors) or indirect rights
(to resurrect precisely those terminated rights as soon as the
asset sale is consummated). The dealers whose agreements were to
be rejected clearly recognized this, having argued before the
Bankruptcy Court that allowing their franchise agreements to be
rejected would create a public safety issue by eliminating
dealerships. See Rejection Opinion, 406 B.R. at 205 & n.30. This
argument would have made no sense if the termination of dealership
rights was only expected to be temporary and short (pending
consummation of the asset sale). Moreover, as Judge Gonzalez noted
in the Enforcement Order, he rejected this argument during the
Rejection Hearing, because he found that the dealer protection
laws at issue did not fall within the 'public safety' exception-
they were 'concerned with protecting economic and commercial
interest of state franchisees,' and therefore, were preempted by
the Bankruptcy Code, leaving the court free to approve a wholesale
downsizing of the dealership network. (Enforcement Order at 8.)"

Chrysler LLC and 24 affiliates on April 30 sought Chapter 11
protection from creditors (Bankr. S.D.N.Y (Mega-case), Lead Case
No. 09-50002).  Chrysler hired Jones Day, as lead counsel; Togut
Segal & Segal LLP, as conflicts counsel; Capstone Advisory Group
LLC, and Greenhill & Co. LLC, for financial advisory services; and
Epiq Bankruptcy Solutions LLC, as its claims agent.  Chrysler has
changed its corporate name to Old CarCo following its sale to a

In connection with the bankruptcy filing, Chrysler reached an
agreement with Fiat SpA, the U.S. and Canadian governments and
other key constituents regarding a transaction under Section 363
of the Bankruptcy Code that would effect an alliance between
Chrysler and Italian automobile manufacturer Fiat.  Under the
terms approved by the Bankruptcy Court, the company formerly known

company that will operate as Chrysler Group LLC.  Fiat has a 20
percent equity interest in Chrysler Group.

CINEMARK INC: Bank Debt Trades at 3% Off in Secondary Market
------------------------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which Cinemark, Inc., is
a borrower traded in the secondary market at 96.71 cents-on-the-
dollar during the week ended Friday, July 9, 2010, according to
data compiled by Loan Pricing Corp. and reported in The Wall
Street Journal.  This represents a drop of 0.40 percentage points
from the previous week, The Journal relates.  The Company pays 325
basis points above LIBOR to borrow under the facility.  The bank
loan matures on April 30, 2016, and carries Moody's Ba3 rating
while it is not rated by Standard & Poor's.  The debt is one of
the biggest gainers and losers among 204 widely quoted syndicated
loans with five or more bids in secondary trading for the week
ended Friday.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on April 28, 2010,
Moody's affirmed Cinemark, Inc.'s ratings, including its B1
corporate family and probability of default ratings, and SGL-1
speculative grade liquidity rating.  The existing Ba3 senior
secured bank debt and B3 senior unsecured bond ratings for
Cinemark USA, Inc., were also affirmed.  The rating outlook
remains positive.

As a consequence of Cinemark's gradually improving operational
performance, the company's leverage and coverage measures have
also been gradually improving.  When considered in conjunction
with a solid liquidity position anchored by a substantial cash
balance that could facilitate near-term debt reduction, or
alternatively, the acquisition of additional cinema operations
that would presumably strengthen the business, Moody's continue to
maintain a positive rating outlook.  This is despite limited free
cash generation, a consequence of ongoing growth initiatives and a
dividend that consumes +/- 20% of (unadjusted) EBITDA.

Cinemark Holdings, Inc., which owns Cinemark, Inc., and
(indirectly) Cinemark USA, Inc. and is headquartered in Plano,
Texas, is the United States' third largest motion picture
exhibitor with 294 theaters and 3,830 screens in 39 states, and
internationally (in 13 countries), mainly in Mexico, South and

Moody's Investors Service affirmed and concurrently withdrew all
the ratings of Cohr Holdings, Inc., including the company's Caa2
corporate family and probably of default ratings and Caa1 ratings
on the first lien credit facilities.

The ratings have been withdrawn because Moody's believes it lacks
adequate information to maintain a rating.

  -- Corporate family rating, Caa2;

  -- Probability of default rating, Caa2;

  -- $140 million, senior secured term loan, due in 2013, Caa1
     (LGD3, 39%);

Participations in a syndicated loan under which Coleto Creek Power
L.P. is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 88.80 cents-
on-the-dollar during the week ended Friday, July 9, 2010,
according to data compiled by Loan Pricing Corp. and reported in

Standard & Poor's lowered its issue rating on Coleto Creek Power

its $170 million synthetic letter of credit facility maturing
2013, and its $60 million working capital revolving facility
maturing 2011 to 'B+' from 'BB-'.  S&P also revised the recovery
rating to '2' from '1', indicating S&P's expectation that lenders
would receive substantial (70% to 90%) recovery of principal in
the event of a payment default.  (Coleto Creek has a $200 million
senior secured second-lien term loan due 2013 that S&P does not
rate.)

"The rating action follows the project's weak financial
performance over the past couple of years caused by weakened
market conditions, construction delays with its pollution-control
equipment, and other forced outages," said Standard & Poor's
credit analyst Swami Venkataraman.

CORD BLOOD: Directors Grants Stock Options to Two Exec. Officers
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Board of Directors of Cord Blood America, Inc., acted, in each
case with the conflicted director abstaining, to compensate key
Executive Officers for past services completed during the
preceding year, by the issuance of stock options to acquire the
company's common stock under the Company's Cord Blood America,
Inc. 2010 Flexible Stock Plan.

These options granted are vested immediately, have a 10-year term,
or through July 1, 2020, and are exercisable at an exercise price
of $0.0053 per share, which was the closing stock bid price for
the company's common stock on July 1, 2010.

These Options were granted for past services to the following key
Executive Officers as bonus compensation for the periods indicated
on July 1, 2010:

    Recipient            Options Grated
    ---------            --------------
    Matthew Schissler     15,468,589
    Joseph Vicente         7,734,345

The value of the options so issued cannot be calculated as of this
date, since they have been issued at the closing bid price of the
company's common stock on the date of grant, July 1, 2010.

The Options provide for cashless exercise, permitting the
recipient to surrender any Options whose exercise price are below
the then market price for the Company's stock, and received a
credit for the difference between each surrendered option's
exercise price and the market price for the Company's common stock
on the date of Option surrender. Such credit is then applied
against payment of the exercise price for other Options turned in
for exercise.

The number of shares of common stock which may be purchased upon
exercise of these Options, and the exercise price, is subject to
adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, merger,
reorganization or recapitalization.

B. Effective July 1, 2010, the Board of Directors acted, in each
case with the conflicted director abstaining, to provide incentive
compensation to the company's key Executive Officers for 2010, by
the issuance of unvested stock options to acquire company's common
stock which vest on July 1, 2011, so long as the employee is a
full time employee of the Company on the vesting date, up to their
expiration date on July 1, 2020.

DELTA PETROLEUM: Selects Carl Lakey as Chief Executive Officer
--------------------------------------------------------------
Delta Petroleum Corporation named Carl Lakey as Chief Executive
Officer, effective immediately.  Mr. Lakey most recently served as
Senior Vice President of Operations for Delta and has been with
the Company since 2007.

Mr. Lakey has spent his entire professional career in oil and gas
exploration and production.  Prior to joining Delta Petroleum, Mr.
Lakey spent six years managing operations at El Paso Production
Company and sixteen years in various operational and technical
positions at ExxonMobil.

"Carl is a veteran oil and gas production and development
executive and has been instrumental in increasing net production
and proved reserves during his time at Delta Petroleum," said
Daniel Taylor, Chairman of the Board of Delta Petroleum.  "He's a
skilled operator and knows this business extremely well.  We
believe he is the right person to take Delta Petroleum forward,
particularly our principal assets in the Piceance Basin."

Delta also announced that John R. Wallace, currently President and
COO, agreed to resign from the Company as an officer and director
to pursue other interests.  "John has been an extremely valuable
member of our leadership team, integral in identifying and
developing our most valuable asset, the Vega field.  We thank him
for his service, and wish him the best in his future endeavors,"
said Mr. Taylor.

In addition, Delta announced that it has terminated discussions
to sign a definitive Purchase and Sale Agreement with Opon
International LLC to sell a 37.5% non-operated working interest
in, and jointly develop, its Vega Area assets in the Piceance
Basin.  Delta terminated the discussions after Opon was unable to
obtain financing for the transaction on the agreed-upon terms.
Delta will continue to pursue disciplined development of its main
asset in the Piceance Basin to bolster proved reserves.  In the
Vega Area, Delta is taking a balanced approach to employing new
procedures that are improving completion results while preserving
liquidity.  Delta is also continuing to pursue strategic
alternatives to enhance shareholder value.  Mr. Taylor continued,
"While Opon was unable to arrange financing for a transaction on
terms acceptable to us, we remain confident in the value of our
Vega Area asset, and intend to further delineate that value as we
consider the Company's other strategic alternatives."

going concern."

R2 Investments, LDC, DJD Group LLC, Third Point LLC, the Radoff
Family Foundation, Bradley L. Radoff, and LKCM Private Discipline
Master Fund, SPC, have entered into a written lock-up agreement to
challenge Emmis Communication Corp. CEO Jeffrey H. Smulyan's bid
to take the company private.

On May 25, 2010, Emmis executed an agreement and plan of merger,
that if consummated would result in the Company being taken
private by Mr. Smulyan.  The Merger Agreement provides for a
series of transactions, including (a) a cash tender offer for the
Company's Class A Common Stock, (b) an offer to exchange all
outstanding Preferred Shares for new 12% PIK Senior Subordinated
Notes due 2017, and (c) a solicitation of proxies to amend certain
terms of the Preferred Shares.  Adoption of the Proposed
Amendments described in the Merger Agreement requires the
affirmative vote of holders of at least 2/3 of the outstanding
Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class.

Amalgamated Gadget said in a regulatory filing with the Securities
and Exchange Commission that on July 9, 2010, Double Diamond et
al. agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to (1) vote or cause to
be voted any and all of its Preferred Shares against the Proposed
Amendments; (2) restrict dispositions of Preferred Shares; (3) not
enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any
person for the purpose of holding, voting or disposing of any
securities of the Company, or derivative instruments with respect
to securities of the Company; (4) consult with each other prior to
making any public announcement concerning the Company; and (5)
share certain expenses incurred in connection with  their
investment in the Preferred Shares, in each case during the term
of the Lock-Up Agreement.

Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement with R2,
Amalgamated Gadget disclosed that it may be deemed to be the
beneficial owner of 822,273 shares of Emmis Common Stock, which
constitutes approximately 2.4% of the 33,735,646 shares of the
Common Stock deemed to be outstanding thereunder.

Amalgamated may also be deemed to be the beneficial owner of
337,050 shares of Emmis' 6.25% Series A Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock, which constitutes approximately 12.0% of the
2,809,170 shares of the Preferred Stock deemed to be outstanding
thereunder.

ENERGY FUTURE: Consummates Private Placement Exchange Deal
----------------------------------------------------------
Energy Future Holdings Corp. consummated a private placement
exchange transaction pursuant to an Exchange Agreement between EFH
and an institutional investor.  Pursuant to the Exchange
Agreement, EFH exchanged approximately $412 million aggregate
principal amount of its 10.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 plus
accrued and unpaid interest on the Old Notes for approximately
$549 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.55% Series P
Senior Notes due November 15, 2014.  This transaction resulted in
EFH capturing approximately $137 million of debt discount.

The New Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of
January 12, 2010, among EFH, as Issuer, EFIH and EFCH, as
Guarantors, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.,
as Trustee.  The terms of the New Notes are the same as EFH's
outstanding 10.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2020.  A description
of the material terms of the EFH 2020 Senior Secured Notes is
contained in EFH's Form 8-K filed with the Securities Exchange
Commission on January 19, 2010, and is incorporated herein by
reference.

                  Series P Supplemental Indenture

Prior to the Exchange, the Exchange Holder, who held a majority of
the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Old Notes, gave
its consent to certain amendments to the Indenture, dated as of
November 1, 2004, between EFH and Bank of New York Mellon, and
related documents.  The Series P Indenture governs the Old Notes.
As a result of the consent, EFH and BNY, as trustee under the
Series P Indenture, entered into a Supplemental Indenture, dated
as of July 1, 2010, that amended and supplemented the Series P
Indenture.  The amendments to the Series P Indenture, among other
things, modify or eliminate substantially all of the restrictive
covenants contained in the Series P Indenture, modify or eliminate
certain events of default, modify covenants regarding mergers and
consolidations and modify or eliminate certain other provisions of
the Series P Indenture, including the limitation on the incurrence
of secured indebtedness.

              Liability Management Transactions Since
              the Start of the Second Quarter of 2010

In addition to the Exchange, since the start of the second quarter
of 2010 through July 2, 2010, EFH has engaged in a series of other
liability management transactions. In these other transactions,
EFH acquired, in aggregate, $413 million of its and its

subsidiary Texas Competitive Electric Holdings Company LLC's
outstanding debt.  As consideration for this acquired debt, EFH
issued approximately $72 million aggregate principal amount of EFH
2020 Senior Secured Notes and paid approximately $211 million of
cash.  These other transactions have resulted in EFH capturing
approximately $130 million of debt discount.

As a result of the Exchange and the other transactions described
above, since the start of the second quarter of 2010 through
July 2, 2010, EFH has acquired, in aggregate, approximately
$962 million of its and TCEH's outstanding debt.  As consideration
for this acquired debt, EFH issued approximately $484 million of
EFH 2020 Senior Secured Notes and paid approximately $211 million
of cash.  These transactions have resulted in EFH capturing
approximately $267 million of debt discount and extending the
maturities of $695 million of outstanding debt since the start of
the second quarter of 2010 through July 2, 2010.  The $267 million
debt discount together with the related approximately $40 million
in aggregate projected interest savings through 2014 result in a
total projected 2014 net debt reduction of approximately
$307 million.  Net debt means consolidated short-term borrowings
and long-term debt, including long-term debt due currently, net of
cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash.

                 Total Liability Management Program

Since October 2009, when EFH began its liability management
program, through July 2, 2010, EFH has acquired, in aggregate,
approximately $1.366 billion of its and TCEH's outstanding debt.
As consideration for this acquired debt, EFH has issued
approximately $518 million of EFH 2020 Senior Secured Notes and
$115 million of its 9.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 and paid
approximately $211 million of cash and EFIH has issued
approximately $141 million of its 9.75% Senior Secured Notes due
2019.  These transactions have resulted in EFH capturing
approximately $381 million of debt discount and extending the
maturities of $985 million of outstanding debt under its liability
management program through July 2, 2010.  The $381 million debt
discount together with the related approximately $115 million in
aggregate projected interest savings through 2014 result in a
total projected 2014 net debt reduction of approximately
$496 million.

The following is a summary of the debt acquired through July 2,
2010 under EFH's liability management program:

   * approximately $566 million of Old Notes;

   * approximately $10 million of EFH's 6.50% Series Q Senior
     Notes due 2024;

   * approximately $6 million of EFH's 6.55% Series R Senior Notes

ETERNAL ENERGY: Sells 75% Working Interest in West Ranch Holding
----------------------------------------------------------------
Eternal Energy Corp. said in a regulatory filing it has sold its
75% working interest in the SW Extension of the West Ranch Field,
located in Jackson County, Texas, to Century Assets Corporation
for cash consideration of $225,000 and the assumption of all
existing and future liabilities, estimated to be approximately
$280,000, related to the West Ranch wells by Century.

Eternal acquired its interest in the West Ranch Field in 2007
through a series of stock and cash transactions.  All operating
wells have been shut-in since June 2008 due to excess compression
capacity and related costs.  In September 2009, the Company ceased
claiming reserves associated with its West Ranch holdings and
fully impaired its investment in the West Ranch Field.

"We are pleased that we were able to monetize our investment in
the West Ranch Field and remove ourselves from any future plugging
liabilities associated with the wells in the SW Extension," stated
Brad Colby, Eternal's President and CEO.  "The cash received from
the sale will strengthen our working capital position, as well as
provide additional funding for future drilling activities in our
Hardy and Spyglass Prospects."

The Company also announced that, as of the close of business on
June 30, 2010, it has repurchased and retired 1,881,000 shares of
its outstanding common stock at an average purchase price of $0.06
per share pursuant to its stock repurchase program.  SEC rules

open market.

FAIRPOINT COMMS: New Hampshire Regulators Approve Plan
------------------------------------------------------
Kathy McCormack at The Associated Press reports that New
Hampshire's Public Utilities Commission approved a plan by
FairPoint Communications, saying the Company has made steady
progress in addressing its operational problems and it has
significantly upgraded the talent level on its board of directors
and in senior management in the most critical areas.

A final plan awaits confirmation by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, The
AP notes.

The AP relates that Vermont regulators rejected the {lan because
it could not find that the Company had demonstrated the financial
capability to meet its obligations, while Maine regulators
approved the plan in June 2010.

FIRST INDUSTRIAL: Cut by S&P to 'B+' on Less-Than-Adequate Cash
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its corporate credit
ratings on First Industrial Realty Trust Inc. and First Industrial
L.P. to 'B+' from 'BB-'.  At the same time, S&P lowered its rating
on the company's senior unsecured notes to 'BB-' from 'BB'.  S&P's
recovery rating on the notes is unchanged at '2', indicating its
expectations for a substantial recovery for noteholders in the
event of a payment default.  S&P also lowered its rating on the
company's preferred stock to 'CCC+' from 'B-'.  The outlook
remains negative.

"S&P's ratings on First Industrial reflect the company's less-
than-adequate liquidity and reliance on executing asset sales,
secured debt financings, and possibly raising additional equity to
meet its 2011 capital needs," said Standard & Poor's credit
analyst George Skoufis.  "Additionally, S&P believes the company
will continue to operate with very limited cushion under its
credit facility covenants, which will also constrain its financial
flexibility.  However, the company has modest near-term capital
needs until a September 2011 debt maturity, and its sizable
industrial portfolio, which has good geographic and tenant
diversity, remains largely unencumbered."

S&P's negative outlook reflects its belief that First Industrial's
cash flow and coverage metrics will remain under pressure,
particularly with respect to the current slim margin under its
credit facility covenants, and the possibility that the company
could suspend some or all of its preferred dividends to maintain
compliance with its covenant.  S&P would lower its ratings further
if the company were to breach any covenants, if market conditions
weaken and make it difficult for First Industrial to source
capital to meet its capital needs, or if S&P's derived FCC for the
company deteriorates from its current level.  Additionally, S&P
would lower the rating on the preferred securities further if the
likelihood of suspension increases.  S&P would consider raising
its rating if the company's liquidity profile improves
sufficiently to meet at least 12 months of capital needs, covenant
pressures abate, and its derived FCC improves to the high-1x area.


FOUNTAIN VILLAGE: Has Cash Collateral Access Until July 16
----------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Randall L. Dunn of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Oregon authorized Fountain Village Development to use
the cash collateral until July 16, 2010, and grant adequate
protection.

The Debtor would use the cash collateral, which Sam and Michele
Pishue claim a security interest, to operate its business
postpetition.

Portland, Oregon-based Fountain Village Development, a general
partnership, aka Fountain Village Development Co, owns, develops,
operates, manages, and/or leases 20 buildings in Portland,
Hillsboro, and Gearhart, Oregon.  The Company has filed for

Schoen, Esq., who have offices in Portland, Oregon, assist the
Company in its restructuring effort.  The Company listed
$50,000,001 to $100,000,000 in assets and $50,000,001 to
$100,000,000 in liabilities.


FOUNTAIN VILLAGE: Amends Plan of Reorganization Outline
-------------------------------------------------------
Fountain Village Development filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Oregon an amended Disclosure Statement
explaining the proposed Plan of Reorganization.

According to the Disclosure Statement, each secured creditor will
retain its security interest in and liens on its collateral with
the same priority the security interest and liens had on the
petition date.  Each claim will be a secured claim up to the value
of the property securing the claim unless the claimant elects
treatment, or the Debtor and claimant have agreed upon the secured
claim amount.  The Debtor will either (a) deed certain of the
properties securing a creditor's claim to that creditor in full
satisfaction of the secured claim or (b) keep the property as a
retained property.

Creditors holding general unsecured claims will receive pro rata
distributions of 50% of excess cash flow generated by the
Reorganized Company on an annual basis until unsecured claims are
paid in full or otherwise satisfied pursuant to the Plan.

FX REAL ESTATE: Posts $10.9 Million Net Loss in Q1 of 2010
----------------------------------------------------------
FX Real Estate and Entertainment Inc. filed its quarterly report
on Form 10-Q, reporting a net loss of $10.9 million on
$4.3 million of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2010,
compared with a net loss of $2.9 million on $4.6 million of
revenue for the same period of 2009.

The Company's balance sheet at March 31, 2010, showed
$141.3 million in assets and $503.7 million of liabilities, for a
stockholders' deficit of $362.4 million.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on April 15, 2010, LL
Bradford, in Las Vegas, expressed substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The independent
auditors noted that the Company has limited available cash, has a
working capital deficiency and will need to secure new financing
or additional capital in order to pay its obligations, and the
Company's Las Vegas Subsidiary is in default under the mortgage
loan secured by the Las Vegas Property.

The Company has no current cash flow and cash on hand as of
May 14, 2010, is not sufficient to fund its short-term liquidity
requirements, including its ordinary course obligations as they
come due.  On April 21, 2010, the Company's remaining Las Vegas
subsidiary, namely FX Luxury Las Vegas I, LLC filed a voluntary
petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
(Bankr. D. Nev. Case No. 10-17015), pursuant to which the Las
Vegas Subsidiary presented its pre-packaged plan in accordance
with the Effective Lock Up Agreement with the first lien lenders
with respect to their mortgage loan, and the Newco Entities, two
corporate affiliates (LIRA Property Owner, LLC and its parent
LIRA, LLC) of Robert F.X. Sillerman, Paul C. Kanavos and Brett
Torino, who are directors, executive officers and/or greater than
10% stockholders of the Company.  The Effective Lock Up Agreement
contemplates the orderly liquidation of the Las Vegas Subsidiary
in the bankruptcy case by disposing of its Las Vegas Property
(approximately 17.72 contiguous acres of real property located at
the southeast corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Harmon Avenue in
Las Vegas, Nevada) for the benefit of the Las Vegas Subsidiary's
creditors either pursuant to an auction sale for at least
$256 million or, if the auction sale is not completed, pursuant to
a prearranged sale to the Newco Entities under the terms of the
bankruptcy case's plan of liquidation.

Under the Liquidation Plan, it is extremely unlikely the Company
will receive any benefit from the disposition of the Las Vegas
Property.

The Company believes that the aforementioned conditions raise
substantial doubt its ability to continue as a going concern.

FX Real Estate and Entertainment Inc. owns and operates 17.72
contiguous acres of land located at the southeast corner of Las
Vegas Boulevard and Harmon Avenue in Las Vegas, Nevada.  The Las
Vegas Property is currently occupied by a motel and several
commercial and retail tenants with a mix of short and long-term
leases.  On June 23, 2009, as a result of the default on the
$475 million mortgage loan secured by the Las Vegas property,
the first lien lenders had a receiver appointed to take control of
the property and, as a consequence, the Company's Las Vegas
Subsidiary, namely  FX Luxury Las Vegas I, LLC, no longer manages
or operates the property.  The Company is headquartered in New
York City.

Sales for the second quarter of 2010 increased to $232.3 million
from $181.5 million in the second quarter of 2009.  The increase
in net sales was primarily due to the following:

     i) the release of NASA funding constraints on the Orion
        program generating $16.2 million of additional net sales;

    ii) awards received in 2009 on divert and attitude control
        system programs generating $12.7 million of additional net
        sales;

   iii) increased deliveries and follow-on awards received in 2009
        on the Multiple Launch Rocket System program generating
        $6.4 million of additional net sales; and

    iv) increased deliveries under the Tube-launched, Optically-
        tracked, Wire-guided Missile program generating
        $5.9 million of additional net sales.

Sales for the first half of 2010 increased to $417.4 million from
$350.8 million in the first half of 2009.  The increase in net
sales was primarily due to the following:

     i) the release of NASA funding constraints on the Orion
        program generating $26.7 million of additional net sales;

    ii) awards received in 2009 on divert and attitude control
        system programs generating $21.4 million of additional net
        sales; and

   iii) increased deliveries on the MLRS program generating
        $9.2 million of additional net sales.

The increase in net sales was partially offset by a decline in
deliveries of rocket motors under the Atlas V program in the
current period compared to the prior year period.

Segment performance for the second quarter of 2010 was income of
$20.6 million compared to income of $23.3 million in the second
quarter of 2009.  Segment performance was income of $30.1 million
in the first half of 2010 compared to income of $37.9 million in
the first half of 2009. The decrease in segment performance in
both periods was primarily the result of an increase in non-cash
retirement benefit plan expense in 2010 partially offset by the
contribution from higher net sales.

GEO GROUP: Moody's Assigns 'Ba3' Rating on $750 Mil. Senior Loan
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigns a (P) Ba3 rating to GEO Group,
Inc.'s proposed $750 million senior secured credit facility.  The
facility is intended to partially finance the acquisition of
Cornell Companies.  All of GEO Group's ratings remain under review
direction uncertain, pending the completion of its merger with
Cornell Companies, Inc., expected to close in the third quarter
2010.

On April 19, 2010, the GEO Group announced plans to acquire
Cornell for stock and/or cash at an estimated enterprise value
of $685 million including the assumption of approximately
$300 million in Cornell debt.  The proposed bank facility includes
a new $400 million 5-year revolving credit facility; $150 million
5-year Term Loan A; and $200 million 6-year Term Loan B.  Proceeds
from the term loans and draws on the revolver will be used to
satisfy the cash component of the transaction, refinancing
existing GEO bank debt and Cornell's recourse debt upon completion
of the merger.

Effective leverage is expected to increase to 43% upon closing
from 37% as of April 4, 2010 and secured debt will increase to 32%
from 21%.  Other concerns center on the successful integration of
the two companies.  Cornell's Adult Secure Division will fold into
GEO Group's U.S. Corrections.  Cornell's Adult Community-Based
Services and Abraxas Youth and Family Services are new operating
platforms for the GEO Group, and will fall under the company's GEO
Care Division which provides behavioral health & correctional
healthcare services.

Counterbalancing these concerns, the acquisition will add size and
diversity to GEO Group.  Operating Revenue is estimated to
increase to approximately $1.5 billion (based on FY2009) from
$1.0 billion and the number of beds will increase to approximately
79,000 from 58,000.  The Adult Community-Based Services and
Abraxas Youth Family Services expands GEO Group's already diverse
operating platform and client base which includes international
operations in Australia, the U.K. and South Africa.

In the short to intermediate term, Moody's notes the full benefit
of expanded capacity may be muted due to the uncertainty of new
contracts.  Severe budgetary pressures on federal, state and local
governments may curtail new contracts.  On the other hand, some
expect governments to turn to private correction companies as part
of the solution to budget deficits.  In general, state and federal
prisons are operating at or above capacity and governments now
lack the funds to invest capital in new facilities.  Beyond this,
private prison companies can run facilities in a more cost
efficient manner as they are not confined by the same higher labor
costs requirements (including pension costs) of governmental
entities.

The ratings remain under review pending the shareholder vote and
closing anticipated in the third quarter 2010.  Moody's notes that
should the transactions close as expected by GEO Group, the pro-
forma credit metrics for the company will likely weaken, yet the
company's financial profile should remain within its existing
rating category.

This rating was assigned and is under review direction uncertain:

* GEO Group, Inc. -- Proposed $750 million senior secured credit
  facility at (P) Ba3

These ratings remain under review direction uncertain:

* GEO Group, Inc. -- Ba3 senior secured; B1 senior unsecured; Ba3
  corporate family.

Moody's last rating action with respect to GEO Group, Inc., was on
April 19, 2010, when Moody's placed the ratings under review
direction uncertain.

The GEO Group, Inc., is based in Boca Raton, Florida, USA and is a
provider of government-outsourced services specializing in the
management of correctional, detention and mental health and
residential treatment facilities in the United States, Australia,
the United Kingdom, South Africa, and Canada.  As of April 4,
2010, GEO managed approximately 53,000 beds and had an additional
4,000 beds under development.


GLEN ROSE: Filing of Annual Report for FY 2010 to be Delayed
------------------------------------------------------------
Glen Rose Petroleum Corp. discloses that its annual report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, could not be filed
within the prescribed time period because it needs additional time
to allow its auditors to complete its audit, due to a significant
transaction that closed in the fourth quarter.  The Company says
it does not anticipate any significant change in results of
operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year.

                    About Glen Rose Petroleum

Glen Rose Petroleum Corp. -- http://www.glenrosepetroleum.com/--

                          *     *     *

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on March 3, 2010, the
Company's substantial losses from operations and working
capital deficit raise substantial doubt as to its ability to
continue as a going concern.  The Company had a net loss of
$984,268 for the nine months ended December 31, 2009, and
a net loss of $2,181,974 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009,

deficit of $49,417,037, and $48,432,770, respectively.

GRAPHIC PACKAGING: S&P Raises Corporate Credit Rating to 'BB-'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its ratings on Marietta,
Ga.-based Graphic Packaging International Inc., including the
corporate credit rating, to 'BB-' from 'B+'.  The rating outlook
is positive.

"The ratings upgrade reflects the greater-than-expected progress
that GPK has achieved in strengthening its financial risk profile,
and prospects for continued improvement over the next year," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Pamela Rice.  The company's total
adjusted debt at March 31, 2010, was $3.1 billion, about
$450 million less than a year earlier as the company used cash
flow generated from its core businesses and funds received from
alternative-fuel-mixture credits to reduce debt.

The rating outlook is positive, reflecting S&P's expectations that
GPK will continue to use its free cash flow to reduce debt, which
along with moderately improving earnings could lead to credit
measures that may be consistent with a higher rating.  In the near
term, S&P's rating incorporates a 5% to 10% increase in EBITDA in
2010 compared with 2009 as a result of continued productivity
improvements and improving market conditions.  In addition, S&P
expects the company to generate about $200 million of free cash
flow in 2010 based on S&P's EBITDA projections, and use it
primarily to reduce debt.  Specifically, S&P believes adjusted
leverage could improve to the mid-4x area and FFO to adjusted debt
could increase to nearly 15% by year-end 2010 if the company uses
its free cash flow to reduce debt.

S&P could raise the ratings if earnings and cash flow are
sufficiently robust because of the economic recovery and further
meaningful productivity improvements and cost reductions, and the
company reduces debt so that S&P believes adjusted leverage and
FFO to adjusted debt will improve, and be sustained in the 4x to
4.5x range and between 15% and 20%, respectively.  S&P could
revise the outlook to stable, although S&P views this as less
likely, if operating conditions are worse than S&P expects because
of a renewed slowdown in the U.S. economy, and GPK is unable to
maintain its adjusted leverage and FFO to adjusted debt below 5x
or greater than 10%, respectively.

HAWKER BEECHCRAFT: Bank Debt Trades at 20% Off in Secondary Market

Participations in a syndicated loan under which Hawker Beechcraft
is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 80.17 cents-on-
the-dollar during the week ended Friday, July 9, 2010, according

Street Journal.  This represents a drop of 0.42 percentage points
from the previous week, The Journal relates.  The Company pays 200
basis points above LIBOR to borrow under the facility.  The bank
loan matures on March 26, 2014, and carries Moody's Caa1 rating

HEMIWEDGE INDUSTRIES: Lenders Acquire All Outstanding Debt
----------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to the provisions of an Assignment of Note, Loan
Documents and Security Interests dated June 30, 2010 by and among
Stillwater National Bank and Trust Company, as assignor, and Eads
Investments I, LLC and D. Bradley McWilliams, as assignees, the
New Lenders purchased from the Bank all outstanding indebtedness
and obligations of Hemiwedge Industries, Inc. and its subsidiary,
Hemiwedge Valve Corporation under and pursuant to the Loan and
Consolidation Agreement and certain other loan documents, each
dated September 30, 2008 among Borrowers, certain other parties
and the Bank.

As a condition of the purchase of the Prior Indebtedness by the
New Lenders from the Bank under the Assignment Agreement, the Bank
agreed to release the Borrowers from all obligations and
indebtedness to the Bank under the Original Loan Documents
pursuant to the terms of a Consent and Release Agreement dated
June 30, 2010.

As a condition of (a) the purchase by the New Lenders of the Prior
Indebtedness and all obligations of Borrowers to the Bank under
the Prior Loan Documents and (b) the agreement by the New Lenders
to extend and renew the Prior Indebtedness and obligations of the
Borrowers under the Prior Loan Documents and (c) the Lenders'
forbearance from accelerating the loans and Prior Indebtedness
under the Prior Loan Documents, the Corporation and Subsidiary
have agreed to enter into an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
and certain other loan documents and security agreements with the
New Lenders all dated June 30, 2010 evidencing the Corporation's
and the Subsidiary's indebtedness and granting certain security
interests to the New Lenders.

The New Loan Documents dated June 30, 2010 consisted of:

     i) an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement by and among the
        Corporation, the Subsidiary and the New Lenders;

    ii) a 10% Amended and Restated Promissory Note in the
        aggregate principal amount of $706,125 issued by the
        Corporation and the Subsidiary in favor of the New
        Lenders;

   iii) an Amended and Restated Security Agreement by and among
        the Corporation, the Subsidiary and the New Lenders; and

    iv) a Stock Pledge and Security Agreement between the
        Corporation and the New Lenders.

In addition, the Corporation issued New Lenders 5-year common
stock purchase warrants to purchase 2,875,000 shares of the
Corporation's common stock; provided that the amount of Warrant
Shares shall be reduced to 575,000 shares of Common Stock at a
purchase price of $0.10 per share if, on or before August 15, 2010
either:

     i) New Lenders sell all of their interest in Note to a third
        party for the full outstanding balance thereunder, or

    ii) the Note is paid in full plus all interest and costs
        owed thereon all in the form and substance satisfactory to
        the New Lenders.

The Note has a maturity dates of June 30, 2011.  Interest accrues
on the Note at a rate of 10% and is to be paid on September 30,

Maturity Date.  At the Corporation's option, interest may be paid
in Common Stock at a rate of 5,000 shares of Common Stock per day.

The Corporation granted New Lenders piggyback registration rights
with respect to their shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants and for shares of Interest Common Stock,
subject to certain cut backs and exclusions.  The Loan Agreement
also provides certain covenants on the Corporation and Subsidiary.

                          About Hemiwedge

Hemiwedge Industries, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary
Shumate Machine Works, Inc., in October 2008, consummated the sale
of substantially all of Machine Works' assets to American
International Industries, Inc.  The sale was effected pursuant to
an asset purchase agreement pursuant to which Machine Works
transferred substantially all of its assets and certain enumerated
liabilities to Purchaser.  The aggregate purchase price was
$6,703,749 consisting of assumption by Purchaser of (i) $5 million
of promissory notes due Stillwater National Bank and Trust Company
and (ii) $1,703,749 of certain other liabilities, including
without limitation, accounts payable of Machine Works.  The
Company also issued 1,401,170 shares of common stock to the
Purchaser as a purchase price adjustment of $420,351.

In February 2009, the Company changed its name from "Shumate
Industries, Inc." to "Hemiwedge Industries, Inc." to emphasize and
focus on its valve product technology after the sale of its
contract machining business.

                  Default Under Convertible Notes

Hemiwedge Industries has said on July 10, 2008, the principal
amount of $3,050,000 of its convertible notes was due and payable.
Its failure to make full payment on such maturity date constituted
a default under these notes.  The notes continue to bear interest
until payment.  At March 31, 2009, the total amount due under the
notes, including accrued interest was $3,584,365.

                   Default Under Stillwater Loan

Hemiwedge Industries also has said its September 2008 Loan and
Consolidation Agreement with Stillwater National Bank and Trust
Company provides that failure to pay when due any substantial
liability will constitute an event of default thereunder.
Hemiwedge said its failure to pay the convertible notes
constitutes a default under both the loan documents.  Accordingly,
Stillwater has the right to declare all indebtedness under such
loan documents due and payable.  At March 31, 2009, the total
amounts owed under all agreements to Stillwater was $751,000.

                       Sunbelt Arbitration

On June 23, 2008, Hemiwedge received notice from Sunbelt Machine
Works Corporation of its intention to seek arbitration in Houston,
Harris County Texas relating to a $150,000 termination payment due
under (and in connection with the termination of) a Stock Purchase
Agreement dated August 17, 2007.  Hemiwedge failed to make the
first 3 installment payments of $37,500 to Sunbelt on each of
October 25, 2007, February 20, 2008, and June 20, 2008, as
required under the Stock Purchase Agreement.  Sunbelt had
threatened litigation regarding this matter in April 2008, and
Hemiwedge was unable to come to terms on a settlement.  Sunbelt is
seeking an award of $150,000 and reasonable attorney's fees,
expenses and costs incurred to enforce their contractual rights.
Hemiwedge has recorded $178,995 in accrued expenses in its
financial statements to reflect this contingency.

On July 14, 2008, Hemiwedge entered into a letter agreement with
Sunbelt pursuant to which Sunbelt agreed to withdraw the notice of
arbitration until November 1, 2008, in exchange for an immediate
payment of $1,000 and installment payments of $500 on the 1st and
15th of each month until November 1, 2008.   On October 8, 2008,
Hemiwedge entered into a letter agreement with Sunbelt under which
Hemiwedge agreed to pay Sunbelt $75,000 in full satisfaction of
this matter; provided, however, that payment must be received by
Sunbelt within 90 days of the date of the letter for such
settlement to be effective.  Due to cash constraints, Hemiwedge
was unable to make the payment within the required 90 days.

In its quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed May 20, 2009, Hemiwedge
said Sunbelt has not informed the Company of any indication to
re-institute arbitration proceedings.


HERCULES OFFSHORE: Bank Debt Trades at 13% Off in Secondary Market
------------------------------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which Hercules Offshore,
Inc., is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 87.42 cents-
on-the-dollar during the week ended Friday, July 9, 2010,
according to data compiled by Loan Pricing Corp. and reported in
The Wall Street Journal.  This represents an increase of 0.33
percentage points from the previous week, The Journal relates.
The Company pays 650 basis points above LIBOR to borrow under the
facility.  The bank loan matures on July 11, 2013, and carries
Moody's B2 rating and Standard & Poor's B- rating.  The debt is
one of the biggest gainers and losers among 204 widely quoted
syndicated loans with five or more bids in secondary trading for
the week ended Friday.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on June 10, 2010,
Standard & Poor's took several rating actions on eight U.S. oil
and gas companies, including Hercules Offshore, Inc., following an
industry review.  S&P's review of the sector follows its release
on June 1, 2010, which indicated S&P would review companies with
operating exposure to the Gulf of Mexico following the U.S.
Department of the Interior's extension of the moratorium on
drilling permits.  The six-month moratorium affects permits issued
for new drilling operations at water depths greater than 500 feet.
S&P believes that when the moratorium is eventually lifted, there
could be extensive delays in issuing new permits due to high
initial volume and new safety and operating standards imposed.

S&P downgraded Hercules Offshore's rating from (B/Negative/--) to
(B-/Negative/--).

The rating actions also reflect S&P's heightened concerns about
the burgeoning scope of the Macondo well disaster.  The flow of
oil into the Gulf of Mexico is likely to continue until at least
August.  Uncertainty about the ultimate remediation cost and
potential financial liabilities associated with the disaster has
already resulted in a rating downgrade of the corporate credit
rating of BP PLC (AA-/Watch Neg/A-1+).

Hercules Offshore, Inc. (NASDAQ: HERO) --
http://www.herculesoffshore.com/-- provides shallow-water
drilling and marine services to the oil and natural gas
exploration and production industry in the United States, Gulf of
Mexico and internationally.  The Company provides these services
to integrated energy companies, independent oil and natural gas
operators and national oil companies.  The Company operates in six
business segments: Domestic Offshore, International Offshore,
Inland, Domestic Liftboats, International Liftboats and Delta
Towing.


HOME NATIONAL BANK: Closed; RCB Bank Assumes All Deposits
---------------------------------------------------------
Home National Bank of Blackwell, Okla., was closed on Friday,
July 9, 2010, by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency,
which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as
receiver.  To protect the depositors, the FDIC entered into a
purchase and assumption agreement with RCB Bank of Claremore,
Okla., to assume all of the deposits of Home National Bank.

The 15 branches of Home National Bank will reopen during normal
business hours as branches of RCB Bank.  Depositors of Home
National Bank will automatically become depositors of RCB Bank.
Deposits will continue to be insured by the FDIC, so there is no
need for customers to change their banking relationship in order
to retain their deposit insurance coverage.  Customers of Home
National Bank should continue to use their existing branch until
they receive notice from RCB Bank that it has completed systems
changes to allow other RCB Bank branches to process their accounts
as well.

As of March 31, 2010, Home National Bank had around $644.5 million
in total assets and $560.7 million in total deposits.  RCB Bank
paid the FDIC a premium of 0.22 percent for the deposits of Home
National Bank.  In addition to assuming the deposits, RCB Bank
agreed to purchase around $340.7 million of the failed bank's
assets.

Customers who have questions about the transaction can call the
FDIC toll-free at 1-800-405-8357.  Interested parties also can
visit the FDIC's Web site at:

    http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/homenatlok.html

In a separate transaction with the FDIC, Enterprise Bank & Trust
of Clayton, Mo., agreed to purchase around $260.8 million of Home
National Bank's assets.  The FDIC will retain the remaining assets
for later disposition.

The FDIC and Enterprise Bank & Trust entered into a loss-share
transaction on $260.8 million of Home National Bank's assets
purchased from the FDIC.  Enterprise Bank & Trust will share in
the losses on the asset pools covered under the loss-share
agreement.  The loss-share transaction is projected to maximize
returns on the assets covered by keeping them in the private
sector.  The transaction also is expected to minimize disruptions
for loan customers.  For more information on loss share, visit:

  http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/lossshare/index.html

The FDIC estimates that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund
will be $78.7 million.  Compared to other alternatives, these
transactions were the "least costly" resolution for the FDIC's
DIF.  Home National Bank is the 90th FDIC-insured institution to
fail in the nation this year, and the first in Oklahoma.  The last
FDIC-insured institution closed in the state was First State Bank
of Altus, Altus, on July 31, 2009.

IDEAL FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK: Closed; FDIC Pays Out Insured Deposits
------------------------------------------------------------------
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation approved the payout of
the insured deposits of Ideal Federal Savings Bank.  The bank was
closed on Friday, July 9, 2010, by the Office of Thrift
Supervision, which appointed the FDIC as receiver.

The FDIC was unable to find another financial institution to take
over the banking operations of Ideal Federal Savings Bank.
Brokered deposits will be wired once brokers provide the FDIC with
the necessary documents to determine if any of their clients
exceed the insurance limits.  Customers who placed money with
brokers should contact them directly for more information about
the status of their funds.

As a convenience to local depositors, the FDIC has made
arrangements for the insured funds in demand accounts, savings
accounts, NOW accounts, insured CD's, and any other transactional
accounts to be transferred to the Manufacturers and Traders Trust
Company located at 715 N. Howard Street, Baltimore, Md.  M&T Bank
will also accept the failed bank's direct deposits from the
federal government, such as Social Security and Veterans' payments
through Saturday, Sept. 4.

Customers will have access to their accounts at the branch only
between Monday, July 12 and Saturday, July 24.  M&T Bank's hours
of operations are Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to
6:00 p.m., and Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.  Customers
who are interested in opening an account with M&T Bank must
present official government issued identification, a social
security card, and account number at the time the account is
opened.  It is important to note, however, that customers of Ideal
Federal Savings Bank will no longer be able to write checks and
must come in person to either claim their money or set up a new
account.  After July 24, the FDIC will mail any remaining funds to
the address on record for the owners of these accounts.

As of March 31, 2010, Ideal Federal Savings Bank had around
$6.3 million in total assets and $5.8 million in total deposits.

Customers who have questions about the transaction can call the
FDIC toll-free at 1-800-350-2746.  Interested parties also can
visit the FDIC's Web site at:

  http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/idealfedsvngsmd.html

Customers of Ideal Federal Savings Bank with deposits exceeding
$250,000 at the bank may visit the FDIC's Web page "Is My Account
Fully Insured?" at

     https://www2.fdic.gov/drrip/afi/index.asp

The FDIC will retain all the assets for later disposition except
for cash, correspondent accounts, and loans fully secured by
deposits.

The cost to the FDIC's Deposit Insurance Fund is estimated to be
$2.1 million.  Ideal Federal Savings Bank is the 88th FDIC-insured
institution to fail in the nation this year, and the third in
Maryland.  The last FDIC-insured institution closed in the state
was Bay National Bank, Baltimore, earlier on July 9.

Official creditors' committees have the right to employ legal and
accounting professionals and financial advisors, at the Debtor's
expense.  They may investigate the Debtor's business and financial
affairs.  Importantly, official committees serve as fiduciaries to
the general population of creditors they represent.  Those
committees will also attempt to negotiate the terms of a
consensual Chapter 11 plan -- almost always subject to the terms
of strict confidentiality agreements with the Debtors and other
core parties-in-interest.  If negotiations break down, the
Committee may ask the Bankruptcy Court to replace management with
an independent trustee.  If the Committee concludes reorganization
of the Debtor is impossible, the Committee will urge the
Bankruptcy Court to convert the Chapter 11 cases to a liquidation
proceeding.

MILLENNIUM MULTIPLE: Parties-in-Interest Wants Case Dismissed
-------------------------------------------------------------
Claude Young, et al., ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Western District of Oklahoma to dismiss the Chapter 11 case of
Millennium Multiple Employer Welfare Benefit Plan.

Claude Young explained that:

   a. the Debtor is not an entity eligible to file a Chapter 11
      bankruptcy case;

   b. the Debtor's bankruptcy petition was not duly authorized by
      an appropriate governing body of the Debtor;

   c. the commencement of the case was not in good faith; its
      principal purpose being to gain a tactical advantage in non-
      bankruptcy litigation;

   d. there exists gross mismanagement of the estate of the
      Debtor, substantial and continuing loss to, or diminution
      of, the estate, and the absence of a reasonable likelihood
      of rehabilitation; and

   e. the interests of creditors and the debtor would be better
      served by dismissal.

MILLENNIUM MULTIPLE: Ch. 11 Trustee to Probe IRS Ruling on Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
Claude Young, et al., ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Western District of Oklahoma to appoint a Chapter 11 trustee in
the reorganization case of Millennium Multiple Employer Welfare
Benefit Plan.

Claude Young, et al., explained that in addition to their claim
to, and beneficial interest in, the Plan Assets, they also have
claims against various third-parties for damages resulting from
their solicitation and engagement as participants.

Claude Young, et al., add that the Internal Revenue Service ruled
that (i) the Plan does not qualify for treatment, hence,
contributions to the Plan are not, and were not, tax deductible,
and (ii) the Plan is an abusive tax shelter.

Based on IRS' ruling, the Plan participants, including Claude
Young, et al., are subject to IRS audits, appeals and collection
proceedings related to their participation in the Plan.

Official creditors' committees have the right to employ legal and
accounting professionals and financial advisors, at the Debtor's
expense.  They may investigate the Debtor's business and financial
affairs.  Importantly, official committees serve as fiduciaries to
the general population of creditors they represent.  Those
committees will also attempt to negotiate the terms of a
consensual Chapter 11 plan -- almost always subject to the terms
of strict confidentiality agreements with the Debtors and other
core parties-in-interest.  If negotiations break down, the
Committee may ask the Bankruptcy Court to replace management with
an independent trustee.  If the Committee concludes reorganization
of the Debtor is impossible, the Committee will urge the
Bankruptcy Court to convert the Chapter 11 cases to a liquidation
proceeding.

OTTER TAIL: Fitch Affirms Preferred Stock Rating at 'BB'
--------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the Issuer Default Rating of Otter Tail
Corp. at 'BBB-'.  Fitch also affirms the IDR of OTTR's wholly
owned subsidiary Otter Tail Power at 'BBB'.  The Rating Outlook is
Stable for both entities.

OTTR's current IDR of 'BBB-' takes into consideration the
company's unusual business portfolio including a relatively small
electric utility and a mix of small cyclical industrial businesses
that operate in fragmented and competitive markets.  OTTR
generally does not benefit from advantageous size and scale in its
industrial markets.  The 2008-2009 recession revealed the
vulnerability of OTTR's business portfolio; the cyclical
industrial and service businesses experienced steep declines, and
the electric utility's operating cash flow also dropped due to
reduced customer demand and low prices for excess power sold into
the wholesale market.

The effect of the downturn on 2009 cash flow was moderated by the
realization of tax refunds and investment tax credits.  Also, low
debt leverage at the parent company and moderate debt leverage of
the utility subsidiary limited the distress as a result of lower
cyclical business conditions.  The Stable Outlook for the parent
is based on a base rating case in which Fitch assumed a moderate
recovery in certain of the diversified industrial businesses but
not a rebound to the 2007 levels of profitability.

High common dividend payout in excess of earnings and a large
capital investment budget will pose a funding challenge for OTTR
after 2010.  Management forecasts a step-up in planned capital
spending in 2011-2014 (averaging $147 million per annum for the
utility and $40 million per annum for diversified businesses) that
would entail external financing.  Fitch's base rating case assumes
that OTTR will fund with a balanced mix of equity and debt so as
to maintain the current debt leverage.

OTP's IDR of 'BBB' is consistent with the utility's stand-alone
financial measures and supportive regulatory mechanisms in
Minnesota and North and South Dakota, including tracker mechanisms
to recover some costs of service.  Operating cash flow from the
utility business will depend on ongoing rate increases to recover
capital investment in increased investment in utility assets.
Also, OTP's wholesale power sales are subject to market price
exposure.  The majority of the group's capex going forward is
focused on utility projects; OTP plans to invest in wind
generation and network improvements.  OTP was previously a
participant in a consortium to build a coal baseload power plant,
Big Stone II, but that plan has been terminated by the consortium.

Fitch's ratings of OTTR and OTP take into consideration some
modest ring-fencing of the utility subsidiary from its parent and
other affiliates, a factor that reduces but does not eliminate
linkage between the ratings of OTTR and OTP.

Going forward, key factors to maintain the current rating and
Stable Outlook include: cyclical recovery in the diversified
industrial and business services segment; continuing rate
increases to support higher investment in the regulated electric
utility business; and a balanced mix of funding for new capital
investment without increasing debt leverage.

OTTR's business segments include the rate regulated electric
utility (in Minnesota and North and South Dakota) plus five non-
utility business segments, including such disparate activities as
plastics (producing PVC pipe); manufacturing (wind towers, metal
parts, waterfront equipment; horticultural containers); medical
imaging services, and sale of diagnostic medical equipment and
patient monitoring equipment; processing potatoes; and other
business services.  In 2009, the electric utility accounted for
64% of net assets and 130% of net income of the consolidated
company.

Fitch affirms these ratings with a Stable Outlook:

Otter Tail Corporation

  -- Long-term IDR at 'BBB-';
  -- Short-term IDR at 'F3';
  -- Senior Unsecured at 'BBB-';
  -- Preferred Stock at 'BB'.

Otter Tail Power

  -- Long-term IDR at 'BBB';
  -- Short-term IDR at 'F3';
  -- Senior Unsecured at 'BBB+';

Fitch also affirms these OTP pollution control revenue bonds at
'BBB+':

  -- Mercer County (ND) 4.85% pollution control refunding revenue
     bonds due Sept. 1, 2022;

  -- Grant Count (SD) 4.65% pollution control refunding revenue
     bonds due Sept. 1, 2017;

  -- Grant Count (SD) variable rate pollution control refunding
     revenue bonds due Dec. 1, 2012.

PAPILLON ACQUISITION: Moody's Assigns 'B2' Corp. Family Rating
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned first time ratings to Papillon
Acquisition Inc., the vehicle that will be used to acquire
inVentiv Health Inc. in its leveraged buyout by Thomas H. Lee
Partners.  Moody's assigned a B2 Corporate Family Rating and a B2
Probability of Default Rating.  Concurrently, Moody's assigned a
Ba3 rating to the senior secured credit facility and a Caa1 to the
unsecured notes that will be used in part to finance the leveraged
buyout.  Moody's currently rates the predecessor company, inVentiv
Health Inc. (old) and we will withdraw these ratings at the close
of the transaction.  The outlook for the ratings is stable.
Moody's also assigned a Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating of SGL-
2, or good liquidity, to the new company.

The B2 Corporate Family Rating reflects the considerable financial
leverage taken on in the leverage buyout transaction and resulting
credit metrics that are reflective of a single-B rating.  The
ratings are also constrained by a number of risks inherent in the
business including: project cancellations due to FDA non-approval
decisions or generic competition of client's products, reduced
client marketing budgets, and pharmaceutical industry
consolidation.

The ratings are supported by the breadth of inVentiv's diverse
service offerings, which over time could result in increased
cross-selling opportunities and stronger client relationships.
The company is a leader in certain of its markets, such as
outsourced sales teams.  inVentiv also has a track record of
generating positive free cash flow, which we expect to continue
even after the considerable increase in interest expense.

These ratings were assigned:

Papillon Acquisition, Inc.

  -- B2 Corporate Family Rating

  -- B2 Probability of Default rating

  -- $75 million Senior Secured Revolver due 2015, Ba3 (LGD3/31%)

  -- $525 million Senior Secured Term Loan due 2016, Ba3
     (LGD3/31%)

  -- $275 million Unsecured Notes due 2018, Caa1 (LGD5, 85%)

  -- SGL-2 Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating

The outlook is stable.

Ratings to be withdrawn at the close of the transaction:

inVentiv Health Inc. (old)

  -- Ba3 Corporate Family Rating

  -- B1 Probability of Default rating

  -- SGL-1 Speculative Grade Liquidity rating

  -- $50 million Senior Secured Revolver due 2013, Ba3 (LGD3/30%)

  -- $330 million Senior Secured Term Loan due 2014, Ba3
     (LGD3/30%)

This is the first time we have rated Papillon.  The last rating
action for inVentiv Health (old) was September 11, 2009, when
Moody's changed the outlook to positive from stable.

inVentiv, headquartered in Somerset, New Jersey, is a leading
provider of value-added, outsourced services to the
pharmaceutical, life sciences and healthcare industries.  inVentiv
provides a broad range of clinical development, communications and
commercialization services that are critical to their clients'
ability to complete the development and successful
commercialization of their pharmaceutical products and medical
devices.  For the twelve months ended March 31, 2010, the company
reported approximately $937 million in net revenues.


PASADENA PLAYHOUSE: Court Approves Plan of Reorganization
---------------------------------------------------------
Pasadena Playhouse, the State Theater of California, said its Plan
of Reorganization was approved July 7 by the United States
Bankruptcy Court in Los Angeles, and emerged from Chapter 11 after
nearly two months.

The Honorable Thomas B. Donovan presided.

"We are deeply grateful for the collective support that has
allowed the Playhouse to expeditiously move through this difficult
and sometimes painful process," said Pasadena Playhouse Executive
Director, Stephen Eich. "On this journey we found a new meaning to
the word collaboration. The indefatigable efforts of our pro bono
legal team Munger, Tolles, and Olson LLC, led by Thomas Walper,
our pro bono financial advisors Alvarez & Marsal, led by Matt
Kvarda, the City of Pasadena, our Board of Directors, and our
small staff have all combined to create a plan to resurrect the
Playhouse from years of unbearable debts. Although we will be
moving slowly in the future to ensure financial responsibility and
stability, we will in fact be back."

Mr. Eich further acknowledged the Playhouse's loyal subscribers
and donors, many of whom have contributed money to ensure the
future of the theatre. He said, "Without these loyal people, we
would not be able to get through this difficult phase of the
theatre's rebirth. Their generosity -- both monetary and in spirit
-- have underscored the tremendous support and need for our
Theatre and have helped us to keep moving forward towards our goal
of restoring the Playhouse to the premier theatrical destination
for both the City of Pasadena and the State of California."

Earlier this year, Pasadena Playhouse received a matching pledge
of $1 million by anonymous donors who read the news about the
Playhouse's decision to explore financial reorganization.  The
donors expressed how they were moved by the Playhouse's desire to
make the comprehensive courageous choices that were necessary to
help the State Theater of California restructure its
administrative operations in an effort to rid itself of long-
standing debt. It was the donors' want and need to help with the
emergence of Pasadena Playhouse and their hope that others will
step forward immediately to support the Playhouse's essential on-
going fundraising efforts to match or exceed their $1 million
gift.

Pasadena Playhouse Artistic Director, Sheldon Epps said, "We
cannot fully enough express our profound gratitude to the precious
anonymous $1 million donors, whose remarkably generous gift -- and
indeed the challenge to match that gift which comes with their
pledge -- will allow our beloved theatre to stand strong and proud
as we move forward. All of this supernal effort from so many who
care deeply about our theatre -- which includes the artists who
work here and our loyal audience and generous donors -- is a great
reminder of how valuable and important this theatre is to so many.
This care and concern for this theatre and our work will allow the
Playhouse to very soon get back to what it does best, which is
filling our beautiful and glorious house with the art of the
theatre."

Future plans, including a Fall 2010 production, will be announced
at a later date.

The Troubled Company Reporter, citing Jacqueline Palank at Dow
Jones Daily Bankruptcy Review, said on May 17, 2010, Pasadena
Playhouse filed its Chapter 11 plan of reorganization, pursuant to
which:

    -- the Debtor proposes to use donations to pay off more than
       $2 million in debt;

    -- Priority, administrative and secured claims will be paid
       in full;

    -- Season ticket holders can keep their subscriptions or

PENN NATIONAL: Bank Debt Trades at 4% Off in Secondary Market
-------------------------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which Penn National
Gaming, Inc., is a borrower traded in the secondary market at
95.61 cents-on-the-dollar during the week ended Friday, July 9,
2010, according to data compiled by Loan Pricing Corp. and
reported in The Wall Street Journal.  This represents a drop of
0.53 percentage points from the previous week, The Journal
relates.  The loan matures on May 26, 2012.  The Company pays 200
basis points above LIBOR to borrow under the facility.  The bank
debt carries Moody's Ba2 rating and Standard & Poor's BB + rating.
The debt is one of the biggest gainers and losers among 204 widely
quoted syndicated loans with five or more bids in secondary
trading for the week ended Friday.

On Oct. 6, 2009, Moody's Investors Service stated that Penn
National's recent statement that it is "looking at" the
Fontainebleau project in Las Vegas currently has no impact on its
ratings or negative outlook.  The last rating action on Penn
National was Aug. 10, 2009, when Moody's assigned a B1 rating to
the company's proposed $250 million senior subordinated notes due
2019 and affirmed its other ratings.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 12, 2009,
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B1 rating to Penn National
Gaming, Inc.'s proposed $250 million senior subordinated notes due
2019.  The company's Ba2 Corporate Family Rating, Ba2 Probability
of Default Rating, Ba2 senior secured bank loan rating, and B1
senior subordinated note rating were affirmed.  The rating outlook
is negative.

On Aug. 11, 2009, the TCR reported that Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services assigned its issue-level and recovery ratings to
Wyomissing, Pennsylvania-based Penn National Gaming, Inc.'s
proposed $250 million senior subordinated notes due 2019.  S&P
rated the notes 'BB-' (at the same level as the corporate credit
rating on the company) with a recovery rating of '4', indicating
its expectation of average (30%-50%) recovery for noteholders in
the event of a payment default.  Proceeds from the proposed notes,
along with cash on hand or draws under the revolving credit
facility, will be used to repay a portion of the term loan A bank
facility and to repurchase outstanding 6.875% senior subordinated
notes pursuant to a recently announced cash tender offer.

At the same time, S&P affirmed its issue-level rating on Penn
National's outstanding senior subordinated notes at 'BB-' (the
same as the corporate credit rating).  The recovery rating on
these loans remains at '4', indicating its expectation of average
(30%-50%) recovery for noteholders in the event of a payment
default.  S&P also affirmed its issue-level rating on the
company's senior secured credit facilities at 'BB+' (two notches
higher than the 'BB-' corporate credit rating).  The recovery
rating on these loans remains at '1', indicating its expectation
of very high (90%-100%) recovery for lenders in the event of a
payment default.

Penn National Gaming, Inc., owns and operates nineteen gaming and
racing facilities in fourteen U.S. and one Canadian jurisdiction.
The company generates about $2.4 billion of annual net revenues.


PHILADELPHIA NEWSPAPERS: Pension Fund Loses Bid to Halt Sale
------------------------------------------------------------
Andrew Maykuth at The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Chief
Bankruptcy Judge Stephen Raslavich denied a request by employee
pension plans to put Philadelphia Newspapers LLC's reorganization
on hold while the pension plans appeal the bankruptcy plan in U.S.
District Court.  The funds oppose the reorganization because the
new owners will be absolved of responsibility for funding pension
shortfalls.

According to the Inquirer, Judge Raslavich said the pension plans,
led by the Teamsters Union fund and including other employee
funds, had failed to make a strong case that they would suffer
irreparable harm if the reorganization were completed.  The judge
said the company faced a more immediate threat of insolvency if
the 17-month-old bankruptcy case were not concluded by September.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on July 6, 2010,
Jacqueline Palank at Dow Jones Daily Bankruptcy Review said the
Teamsters Pension Trust Fund of Philadelphia & Vicinity -- which
joined other pension funds in warning that the sale would result
in a $150 million unfunded pension liability for all pension
plans, argued allowing the restructuring plan to go forward at
this time would be devastating.

"Multiemployer pension plans presently face the threat of death by
a thousand cuts: the swelling ranks of retirees, shrinking asset
values, insolvent contributing employers and, indeed, losses
sustained in bankruptcy proceedings, all serve to jeopardize the
continued viability of the pension fund," the fund's lawyers have
said in court papers, according to Dow Jones.  "Simply put, the
pension fund cannot afford to continue to sustain losses of this
nature."

The fund said the sale unfairly lets the lenders off the hook for
any liability claims that it could bring against the lenders, as
purchasers of Philadelphia Newspapers' assets, under the pension
plan.  Allowing the sale to close would render pointless the
fund's bid to appeal the plan confirmation order in the U.S.
District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, the fund
said.

                         Bankruptcy Plan

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on June 29, 2010,
Philadelphia Newspapers received bankruptcy court approval to
reorganize and sell its newspapers to a group of its lenders for
$139 million.  U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Stephen Raslavich
approved the reorganization plan in Philadelphia after overruling
objections from union pension funds.  "This is not the end of the
day," Judge Raslavich said in court, according to Bloomberg News.
"There are still union contracts to be negotiated and the sale to
be consummated."

The confirmation hearing for approval of the Chapter 11 of
Philadelphia Newspapers began on June 24.

As reported by the TCR on April 29, 2010, Philadelphia Newspapers
held an auction where, senior lenders' $139 million offer emerged
as the highest bid.  According to a report by the Philadelphia
Inquirer, the deal includes:

    $39.2 million in debt; and
    $69 million in cash equity, plus
    $30 million, as the estimated value for the purposes of the
        bankruptcy auction, of the Company's real estate

Dow Jones notes the Chapter 11 plan provides a slight recovery for
some lower classes of creditors, despite the fact that the senior
secured lenders, which fall ahead in the line to be paid, are owed
$318 million, far more than their $135 million offer will cover.
Certain holders of pre-bankruptcy mezzanine debt and unsecured
creditors are slated to share in a liquidation trust containing
proceeds from avoidance actions, and the holders of mezzanine
claims will see 2.3% of equity in the new company as well.  The
lenders will be repaid with their choice of equity in the new
company or a cash distribution.

Philadelphia Newspapers' plan also contemplates a $39.3 million
bankruptcy exit loan from a group of lenders led by Bank of Utah.
The money will help pay for the costs accrued since Feb. 22, 2009,
when the Debtors filed for bankruptcy protection, and provide the
company with working capital moving forward.

The reorganized company will be known as Philadelphia Media
Network Inc. and led by publisher and Chief Executive Greg Osberg,
a former president and publisher of Newsweek, and chief operating
chief Bob Hall, who was once publisher of the Inquirer and Daily
News.  Bruce Meier, an executive with restructuring firm Alvarez &
Marsal, who had served as a consultant for Philadelphia
Newspapers, will serve as its chief financial officer.

POINT BLANK: Creditors Object to Johnson Associates Appointment
---------------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reports that Point Blank Solutions' official
committee of unsecured creditors filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court an objection to the Debtors' motion seeking to retain
Johnson Associates as compensation advisor.

In the objection, the committee states that the retention
application "provides yet another glaring example of the inability
of the Debtors' board of directors and management to function
effectively.  The fact that the Debtors anticipate having to
provide expert testimony in depositions and/or hearings regarding
compensation analyses is extremely troubling.  The Debtors should
be exploring ways to minimize any potential problems associated
with the Board composition and the Debtors' management, rather
than seeking to retain yet another set of professionals, thereby
creating yet another unnecessary additional layer of expenses in
these cases, to rectify a problem of their own creation."

ROTHSTEIN ROSENFELDT: Fla. Court to Decide on Who Controls Assets
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Julie Kay at Daily Business Review reports that a bankruptcy judge
is ready to decide who will control millions in Scott Rothstein's
assets.  Ms. Kay says a decision was expected last Friday.

Daily Business Review reports that at a hearing Thursday, federal
prosecutors battled attorneys for bankruptcy trustee Herbert
Stettin over which side would be better suited to distribute funds
to victims.  U.S. District Judge James Cohn in Fort Lauderdale,
Fla., had tough questions for both Assistant U.S. Attorney Evelyn
Sheehan and Sharon Kegerreis, Esq., at Berger Singerman, who
represents Mr. Stettin.

Daily Business Review also reports that Ms. Sheehan said her
office would file a pleading July 30 setting forth its methodology
for determining how victims would be compensated.  Victims
objecting to the calculation or denied funds will be able to
protest before the process is completed, which Judge Cohn wants by
August 30.

The report relates that federal prosecutors have argued previously
that allowing the trustee to administer the funds would
unnecessarily divert money from victims to legal fees.

But Ms. Kegerreis, according to the report, argued, "The
forfeiture system was never intended to unwind a complex business
entity like a law firm."

"In this case, the restitution process would be so unwieldy," she
said.  "It is not going to work. Compared to the forfeiture
process, bankruptcy is the best system for marshalling assets."


ROTHSTEIN ROSENFELDT: Partner Faces $9-Mil. Suit by Ch. 11 Trustee
------------------------------------------------------------------
Amy Sherman at The Miami Herald reports that e-mails by Scott
Rothstein show that his firm was struggling for cash as its owners
were spending lavishly -- and that firm president Stuart
Rosenfeldt was aware of it.  The Miami Herald says the e-mails
were introduced at a July 2 deposition of Mr. Rosenfeldt.  The
Herald says Mr. Rothstein sent a series of scathing e-mails to
lawyers demanding that they earn more.

Berger Singerman has filed a $9 million lawsuit against Mr.
Rosenfeldt seeking to recover his salary, loans and credit card
expenses.

Peter Franceschina at The Florida Sun-Sentinel meanwhile reports
that Mr. Rosenfeldt was paid $500,000 by the firm on the day Mr.
Rothstein fled to Morocco in October 2009.  The Sun-Sentinel
relates that records that were exhibits in Mr. Rosenfeldt's
bankruptcy deposition show the check was dated October 27.

According to the Sun-Sentinel, Mr. Rosenfeldt's defense attorney,
Bruce Lehr, Esq., said Wednesday Mr. Rosenfeldt was told by Mr.
Rothstein that he had to pay taxes on income he derived from being
partners with Mr. Rothstein in various businesses.  Mr. Lehr said
the check was meant to pay those taxes, even though Mr. Rosenfeldt
didn't see any income from the businesses.  Mr. Lehr also said Mr.
Rosenfeldt immediately returned the check.  "It is just one more
example of him being an innocent victim," Mr. Lehr said.

The IRS filed a $10.5 million tax lien for 2008 against Mr.
Rosenfeldt last month.

The Sun-Sentinel relates that during his deposition on Friday, Mr.
Rosenfeldt repeatedly invoked his Fifth Amendment right against
self-incrimination.  Mr. Lehr, the report relates, said the
questioning touched on matters under investigation by federal
prosecutors, and that Mr. Rosenfeldt was invoking the Fifth to
protect his innocence.

                      About Scott Rothstein

Scott Rothstein, co-founder of law firm Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler
PA, has been suspected of running a $1.2 billion Ponzi scheme.
U.S. authorities claimed in a civil forfeiture lawsuit filed
November 9, 2009, that Mr. Rothstein, the firm's former chief
executive officer, sold investments in non-existent legal
settlements.  Mr. Rothstein pleaded guilty to five counts of
conspiracy and wire fraud on January 27, 2010.

Creditors of Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler signed a petition sending
the Florida law firm to bankruptcy (Bankr. S.D. Fla. Case No.
09-34791).  The petitioners include Bonnie Barnett, who says she
lost $500,000 in legal settlement investments; Aran Development,
Inc., which said it lost $345,000 in investments; and trade
creditor Universal Legal, identified as a recruitment firm, which
said it is owed $7,800.  The creditors alleged being owed money
invested in lawsuit settlements.

Herbert M. Stettin, the state-court appointed receiver for
Rothstein Rosenfeldt, was officially carried over as the Chapter
11 trustee in the involuntary bankruptcy case.

On June 10, 2010, Mr. Rothstein was sentenced to 50 years in
prison.


ROTHSTEIN ROSENFELDT: AmEx Fighting Bankruptcy Trustee's Claims
---------------------------------------------------------------
Paul Brinkmann at The South Florida Business Journal reports that
American Express, in a court filing, disclosed how it attempted to
mail $80,000 worth of gift cards to Mr. Rothstein, only to have
them intercepted at a UPS station by federal authorities in early
November last fall.

Mr. Rothstein has charged tens of millions in fraudulent purchases
on the American Express card for his former law firm, Rothstein
Rosenfeldt Adler.  His family and law firm partners also used
American Express.  The purchases rack up reward points with
American Express, and Mr. Rothstein had more than 20 million
points.

On Nov. 8 and Nov. 9, Mr. Rothstein requested that American
Express convert 16 million of the points -- worth about $80,000 --
into gift cards of $100 each.  Business Journal reports that
American Express said it "lacked any knowledge of defendant's
criminal scheme" at that point.  "Despite the fact that it was all
over the national business press by then," according to Business
Journal.  The 800 cards were shipped to Fort Lauderdale, via UPS.

Business Journal relates American Express is now claiming that Mr.
Rothstein's personal American Express accounts were $65,594 in
arrears at that time, and so they should be entitled to a return
of the lion's share of those gift cards.

Business Journal says American Express is being sued by the
bankruptcy trustee for $20.7 million, which is the amount of total
charges since 2005 by Mr. Rothstein and firm members. In that
case, the bankruptcy attorneys allege that American Express should
have detected fraud in the RRA accounts and that the credit card
accounts were being paid with dirty money.  American Express has
denied those charges and filed counterclaims attacking the
bankruptcy's standing.  American Express claims RRA still owes it
$395,953.  American Express is represented by Shutts & Bowen in
Miami.

Company.

its assets and debts at $10,000,001 to $50,000,000.


SKILLED HEALTHCARE: Moody's Downgrades Corp. Family Rating to 'B2'
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service lowered and concurrently placed under
review for possible downgrade all of the ratings of Skilled
Healthcare Group, Inc., in response to an exogenous event --
namely, a $671 million verdict rendered against the company by a
jury in Humboldt County, California.  The corporate family and
probability of default ratings were downgraded to B2 under review
for possible downgrade, first lien credit facilities to B1 under
review for possible downgrade, and senior subordinated notes to
Caa1 under review for possible downgrade.

The ratings actions reflect our concerns about any potential
impairments to business fundamentals and the ability of creditors
to accelerate.  Moreover, the review for possible downgrade will
focus on the amount of damages that will be ultimately awarded to
plaintiffs and the resulting impact on the company's operations
and credit profile.  In addition, the review will focus on Skilled
Healthcare's ability to handle a possible bonding requirement and
will consider the likely level of additional liabilities that
could result from the ultimate verdict.

Moody's also downgraded Skilled Healthcare's speculative grade
liquidity rating to SGL-4 from SGL-2 given the magnitude of the
verdict received against the company in this first phase of
deliberations relative to the company's liquidity position.
Moody's has concern that, if an event of default were to occur due
to or related to this verdict, the company could lose orderly
access to its committed $100 million revolving credit facility.
It is our expectation that Skilled Healthcare's cash position is
minimal as the company usually keeps around $3 to $5 million of
cash on hand.

On July 7, 2010 the company announced that a jury in Humboldt
County, California returned a verdict against the company with
initial damages awarded to plaintiffs amounting to $671 million.
Reportedly, the $671 million is composed of $613 million in
statutory damages and $58 million in restitutionary damages.  The
jury has not yet concluded on the punitive damages.  According to
the company's press release, the final judgment is expected to be
announced in the next few weeks.  At the time of the final
judgment, the company will be required to post a bond for 150% of
the final judgment amount.

These rating actions were taken: (Loss Given Default Assessments
are subject to change.)

  -- Corporate family rating, downgraded to B2 from B1 and placed
     under review for possible downgrade;

  -- Probability of default rating, downgraded to B2 from B1 and
     placed under review for possible downgrade;

  -- $360 million Senior Secured First Lien Term Loan, due 2016,
     downgraded to B1 (LGD3, 38%) from Ba3 (LGD3, 37%) and placed
     under review for possible downgrade;

  -- $100 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, due
     2015, downgraded to B1 (LGD3, 38%) from Ba3 (LGD3, 37%) and
     placed under review for possible downgrade;

  -- $130 million Senior Subordinated Notes, due 2014, downgraded
     to Caa1 (LGD6, 91%) from B3 (LGD6, 90%) and placed under
     review for possible downgrade;

  -- Speculative grade liquidity rating, downgraded to SGL-4 from
     SGL-2.

The last rating action was on April 16, 2010, when Moody's
upgraded the SGL rating to SGL-2 from SGL-3 and affirmed B1
corporate family rating.

Skilled Healthcare's ratings were assigned by evaluating factors
we believe are relevant to the credit profile of the issuer, such
as i) the business risk and competitive position of the company
versus others within its industry, ii) the capital structure and
financial risk of the company, iii) the projected performance of
the company over the near to intermediate term, and iv)
management's track record of tolerance for risk.  These attributes
were compared against other issuers both within and outside of
Skilled Healthcare's core industry and Skilled Healthcare's
ratings are believed to be comparable to those other issuers of
similar credit risk.

Headquartered in Foothill Ranch, CA, Skilled Healthcare operates
long-term care facilities and provides a variety of post-acute
care services.  The company operates skilled nursing facilities,
assisted living facilities, hospice and home health locations.
Further, the company provides ancillary services such as physical,
occupational and speech therapy in its facilities and unaffiliated
facilities and is a member of a joint venture providing
institutional pharmacy services in Texas.  Skilled Healthcare
recognized revenues of approximately $761 million for the trailing
twelve month period ended March 31, 2010.


SKILLED HEALTHCARE: S&P Junks Corporate Credit Rating From 'B+'
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it lowered all its ratings
on Foothill Ranch, Calif.-based nursing home operator Skilled
Healthcare Group Inc.  S&P lowered the corporate credit rating to
'CCC' from 'B+'.  At the same time, S&P lowered the senior secured
rating to 'CCC+' (one notch higher than the corporate credit
rating) from 'BB-'.  The recovery rating remains '2', indicating
S&P's expectation for substantial (70%-90%) recovery in the event
of a payment default.

At the same time, S&P lowered the rating on Skilled Healthcare's
subordinated debt to 'CC' (two notches below the corporate credit
rating) from 'B-'.  The recovery rating on this debt remains '6',
indicating S&P's expectation for negligible (0%-10%) recovery in
the event of a payment default.

S&P placed all ratings on CreditWatch with developing
implications.  The CreditWatch listing follows the jury verdict
against Skilled Healthcare related to a complaint filed more than
four years ago.

A California jury has returned a verdict against Skilled
Healthcare in the first phase of a case originally filed in 2006.
The case related to a California statute that requires nursing
homes to maintain 3.2 nursing hours per patient per day.  The jury
awarded the plaintiffs $613 million in statutory damages and
$58 million in restitution.  If the jury verdict is upheld in the
final judgment, which is likely in a few weeks, Skilled Healthcare
would be required to post a bond to satisfy a bonding requirement
to defer enforcement of the judgment during a likely appeal
process.  The bonding requirement is typically to post a bond for
150% of the final judgment amount.

"S&P does not believe the company would have the means to post
such a bond as it currently has only $94 million of borrowing
capacity under its $100 million revolving credit facility," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst David P. Peknay, "with limited
ability to draw on its credit facility due to covenant
limitations." Skilled Healthcare has disclosed that the amount of
the jury verdict exceeds the policy limits of its insurance.

"S&P expects to resolve the CreditWatch listing after the final
judgment is rendered," said Mr. Peknay.  If the jury verdict is
upheld, S&P likely would lower the ratings, considering its belief
that the company might seek bankruptcy protection.  S&P could
raise the rating if the final judgment removes the formidable
financial challenge the company otherwise would face.


SKINNY NUTRITIONAL: Posts $1.0 Million Net Loss for Q1 2010
-----------------------------------------------------------
Skinny Nutritional Corp. filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q,
reporting a net loss of $1,036,873 on $1,778,718 of revenue for
the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared with a net loss of
$847,827 on $1,125,753 of revenue for the same period of 2009.

The Company's balance sheet at March 31, 2010, showed
$2,424,399 in assets and $2,945,817 of liabilities, for a
stockholders' deficit of $521,418.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on April 6, 2010,
Marcum LLP, in Bala Cynwyd, Pa., expressed substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern after
auditing the Company's financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2009.  The independent auditors noted that the
Company has incurred losses since inception and has not yet been
successful in establishing profitable operations.

Bala Cynwyd, Pa.-based Skinny Nutritional Corp. (OTC BB: SKNY.OB)
- http://www.SkinnyWater.com/- has developed and is marketing a
line of enhanced waters, all branded with the name "Skinny Water"
that are marketed and distributed primarily to primarily health .


SONICWALL INC: Moody's Assigns 'B2' Corporate Family Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B2 corporate family rating to
first time issuer, SonicWALL, Inc., as well as Ba3 ratings to its
new first lien debt facilities.  The new debt, along with equity
from Thoma Bravo, LLC and the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan and
an unrated second lien debt facility, will be used to finance
taking SonicWALL private.  The ratings outlook is stable.

The B2 ratings reflect the high leverage as a result of the buy-
out, but recognize the company's strong market position in the
unified threat management market, particularly catering security
solutions to small to mid-sized enterprises.  The ratings also
consider the company's large installed base of customers, strong
distribution network and recurring nature of services revenue
associated with the product offering.  Combined with the strong
growth prospects in the UTM sector, these factors provide the
company sufficient wherewithal to service the high debt levels.
The ratings also assume a moderate level of continued acquisitions
to fill in product lines or acquire strategic technology.

SonicWALL has developed a strong market position selling security
appliances for low to medium scale installations and more recently
gained position offering higher end products catering to
enterprise sized customers and installations.  Despite the
company's niche expertise, the ratings are somewhat limited by
SonicWALL's small scale, especially compared to larger competitors
such as Cisco, Juniper and Checkpoint Software Technologies, who
may not necessarily have superior products, but have much larger
marketing budgets and the ability to bundle sales with other
product offerings.

The stable ratings outlook reflects Moody's expectation that the
business will continue its rebound after the 2009 downturn and
will use its cash generating capabilities to make small
acquisitions and modestly reduce leverage over the near to medium
term.

These ratings were assigned:

* Corporate Family Rating, B2
* Probability of Default Rating, B2
* $155 mm Sr. Secured First Lien Term Loan -- Ba3 (LGD 2, 28%)
* $15 mm Sr. Secured Revolver -- Ba3 (LGD 2, 28%)
* Ratings Outlook -- Stable

SonicWALL is a provider of network security products to small and
mid-sized enterprises and generated approximately $209 million in
LTM revenue as of March 2010.  SonicWALL is headquartered in San
Jose, CA.

SPANISH BROADCASTING: Raised by S&P to 'B-' on Adequate Cash
------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its corporate credit
rating on Miami, Fla.-based Spanish Broadcasting System Inc. to
'B-' from 'CCC+', based on continued improvement in the company's
liquidity position.  The rating outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P raised its issue-level rating on the
company's senior secured credit facilities to 'B-' (at the same
level as the corporate credit rating) from 'CCC+', and left the
recovery rating unchanged at '4', reflecting S&P's expectation of
average (30% to 50%) recovery for secured lenders in the event of
a payment default.

In addition, S&P raised its issue level rating on the company's
series B preferred stock to 'CCC' (two notches below the corporate
credit rating) from 'CCC-'.

"The rating action reflects S&P's expectation that, despite very
high leverage, SBS will have adequate liquidity over the
intermediate term to meet debt maturities, potential swap
settlements, and operating needs until its term loan matures on
June 11, 2012," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Michael
Altberg.

Cash balances stood at $60.6 million as of March 31, 2010, up from
$53.6 million at the 2009 year-end, due to positive discretionary
cash flow generation.  As of the same date, 2010 debt maturities
(including potential swap liabilities) totaled roughly
$26.5 million.

SBS owns and/or operates 21 radio stations with significant
revenue concentration in three markets--New York, Los Angeles, and
Miami -- which are highly competitive markets for both Hispanic
radio and general media.  Large-market radio stations, which were
affected more severely during the recession, appear to be leading
the industry's recovery.  In addition, the company owns and
operates two TV stations under its MegaTV brand that reach
2 million households in the South Florida market, and 4.5 million
households nationally, including affiliate and local programming
agreements.  The TV segment continued to generate modest EBITDA
losses in the first quarter of 2010.


SPHERIS INC: Creditors Seek to Tap CoMetrics as Financial Advisor
-----------------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reports that Spheris's official committee of
unsecured creditors filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court a motion
seeking to retain CoMetrics Partners (Contact: Walter A. Jones) as
financial advisor at the following hourly rates: senior director
at $275 to 395 and Walter Jones at 500.

                         About Spheris Inc.

Headquartered in Franklin, Tennessee, Spheris Inc. --
http://www.spheris.com/-- is a global provider of clinical

SS&C TECHNOLOGIES: Moody's Upgrades Corp. Family Rating to 'B1'
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service upgraded SS&C Technologies, Inc.'s
corporate family and probability of default ratings to B1 from B2
with a stable ratings outlook, its senior subordinated debt rating
to B3 from Caa1, and its short-term liquidity rating to SGL-1 from
SGL-2.  Concurrently, Moody's also affirmed the Ba3 ratings for
the Company's senior secured credit facilities.

The upgrades reflects SS&C's good operating performance and free
cash flow generation, and a track record of steady deleveraging
since its leveraged buyout in November 2005.  The Company has
historically used its free cash flow to reduce debt and more
recently, SS&C used a portion of $134.8 million in net proceeds it
raised from its April 2010 IPO to retire $71.75 million in
principal amount of senior subordinated notes.  As a result, the
Company's pro forma financial leverage has declined from over 6.0x
in 2005 to about 2.9x (total debt/LTM 1Q 2010 EBITDA, Moody's
adjusted for operating leases and pro forma for the acquisitions
made during the LTM period).  The upgrade also incorporates
Moody's expectations that SS&C's revenue, which declined year-
over-year in 2009, will improve in 2010 on an organic basis as a
result of stabilization in the financial services industry,
particularly in the asset management vertical which is the primary
focus of SS&C.

SS&C's B1 rating reflects its good operating performance despite a
steep recession in the financial services industry, its track
record of good free cash flow generation driven by strong EBITDA
margins of about 40%, its very good liquidity position, and the
Company's moderate leverage.  The rating is also supported by the
Company's history of successfully integrating complementary
acquisitions (29 since 1995) and expanding its free cash flows
through synergies and cross-selling opportunities.  In addition,
the revenue stability provided by recurring revenues from long
term software maintenance and software enabled service contracts
and the Company's high average revenue retention rates, support
the rating.  Conversely, the rating is constrained by SS&C's
modest scale, narrow industry focus, highly competitive operating
environment and the potential for debt-funded acquisitions.

The stable ratings outlook reflects Moody's expectations of modest
organic revenue and EBITDA growth of at least 3%-to-5% (on a
constant currency basis) over the near-term, that the Company will
be able to pursue its acquisition-driven growth strategy while
maintaining financial leverage under 4.5x, and its free cash flow
generation and liquidity will remain very good over the near-term.

These ratings were upgraded:

  -- Corporate Family Rating to B1 from B2

  -- Probability of Default Rating to B1 from B2

  -- $133 million of 11.75% Senior Subordinated Notes to B3 (LGD5,
     85%) from Caa1 (LGD5, 83%)

Speculative Grade Liquidity to SGL-1 from SGL-2

These ratings were affirmed:

* $75 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility at Ba3
  (LGD3, 31%) -- Pt. estimate revision from (LGD2, 28%)

* $191 million Senior Secured Term Loan to Ba3 (LGD3, 31%) -- Pt.
  estimate revision from (LGD2, 28%)

Moody's notes that due to the partial redemption of senior
subordinated notes, first-loss absorption by junior debt is
reduced and as a result, the senior secured bank ratings were not
upgraded commensurate with the upgrade in the corporate family
rating, as per Moody's Loss Given Default Methodology.

Headquartered in Windsor, CT, SS&C is a independent software
vendor that provides a broad portfolio of highly specialized
financial management, reporting, and risk management software to
the global financial services industry.  The Company also provides
fund administration and business process outsourcing services.
The company reported sales of $285 million in the LTM 1Q 2010
period.

TEXAS RANGERS: Canceling July 16 Auction for Assets
---------------------------------------------------
The Seattle Times reports that Texas Rangers withdrew its request
for permission to hold an auction on July 16, 2010, to check
whether there are parties willing to outbid Greenberg-Ryan group's
$575 million offer.

According to the report, the Rangers will seek approval for a sale
process with new terms and conditions.  A person familiar with the
matter said Greenberg-Ryan group could remain the lead bidder at
the auction.

The Texas Rangers has already filed a Plan that provides for the
sale of substantially all of the assets of TRBP -- including the
Texas Rangers Major League Baseball Club -- to Rangers Baseball
Express LLC, an entity controlled by Chuck Greenberg and Nolan
Ryan.  Although the lenders are owed $525 million in total, they
receive only $75 million directly from the team because that's the
limit of the secured debt the team itself guaranteed.

                       About Texas Rangers

Texas Rangers Baseball Partners owns and operates the Texas
Rangers Major League Baseball Club, a professional baseball club
in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex.  TRBP is a Texas general
partnership, in which subsidiaries of HSG Sports Group LLC own a

wholly-owns Dallas Stars, L.P., which owns and operates the Dallas
Stars National Hockey League franchise.  The Texas Rangers have
had five owners since the club moved to Arlington in 1972.  Mr.
Hicks became the fifth owner in the history of the Texas Rangers
on June 16, 1998.

In its petition, Texas Rangers Baseball Partners said it had both
assets and debt of less than $500 million.

Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP serves as bankruptcy counsel to the
Debtor.  Forshey & Prostok LLP serves as conflicts counsel.
Parella Weinberg Partners LP serves as financial advisor.

Lenders to the Texas Rangers sought to force the baseball team's
equity owners -- Rangers Equity Holdings, L.P. and Rangers Equity
Holdings GP, LLC -- into bankruptcy court protection (Bankr. N.D.
Tex. Case No. 10-43624 and 10-43625).   The lenders, a group that
includes investment funds Monarch Alternative Capital and
Kingsland Capital Management, filed an involuntary bankruptcy
petition on May 28 against the two companies.  The two companies
were not included in the May 24 Chapter 11 filing of TRBP.

TRACY PRESS: Cuts Publishing Schedule to Cut Costs
--------------------------------------------------
As previously reported by the TCR, Tracy Press, Inc., filed for
Chapter 11 on July 2, 2010 (Bankr. E.D. Calif. Case No. 10-37525).
The Tracy, California-based Company estimated its assets at
$500,001 to $1,000,000 and debts at $1,000,001 to $10,000,000.

Press-Banner reports that Tracy Press filed for bankruptcy in
order to stabilize its financial condition while continuing
operations.

According to the report, the Company has reduced its publishing
schedule to one edition a week to bring expenses in line with
revenues during the current economic recession.

Editor & Publisher reports that the Matthews family of Tracy,
Calif., said their newspapers, online operations and printing
services will remain in operation.

Based in Tracy, Calif., Tracy Press, Inc., is the publisher of the
weekly Tracy Press and, in Santa Cruz County, the Press-Banner.
It also has published the Patterson Irrigator since 2003, but that
paper's own limited liability company -- which includes a print
shop -- has not filed for bankruptcy.

E&P relates that the Tracy Press was a daily until a few years
ago, when declining revenues forced it to cut back on costs and
publication frequency.  In 2009, the Irrigator converted from
twice-weekly to weekly for similar reasons.

While calling her paper "a strong business," according to E&P,
Irrigator Editor and General Manager Amanda Matthews is quoted by
the paper saying, "It's been a tough ride for the Tracy Press for
the past few years as revenues have declined rapidly."


TRAI THIEN: Earns $871 in First Quarter Ended March 31
------------------------------------------------------
Trai Thien USA Inc. (formerly known as Develocap, Inc.) filed its
quarterly report on Form 10-Q, reporting net income of $871 on
$2,913,249 of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2010,
compared with net income of $35,298 on $1,849,130 of revenue for
the same period of 2009.

The Company's balance sheet at March 31, 2010, showed
$28,242,514 in assets, $16,603,952 of liabilities, and $11,638,562
of stockholders' equity.

The Company has committed and contracted for the construction of
7 vessels in Vietnam with a combined carrying capacity of 49,900
deadweight tons in the aggregate value of approximately
$65.5 million (equivalent to VND1,262,000,000,000), which are
expected to be delivered between 2010 and 2011.  As of March 31,
2010, the Company has available $16,304 cash and cash equivalents
and suffers from negative working capital of $11,045,759, whereas
the Company may not have sufficient working capital to meet with
these capital commitments.  The Company plans to finance the
construction of these 7 newly-built vessels through additional
capital injection from its shareholders or external financing from
banks or a mixed of financing sources.  However, there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient funds
to meet with its obligations on a timely basis towards the
delivery of the vessels.

The Company believes the aforementioned factors raise substantial
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

USA BANK OF PORT CHESTER: Closed; New Century Assumes Deposits
--------------------------------------------------------------
USA Bank of Port Chester, N.Y., was closed on Friday, July 9,
2010, by the New York State Banking Department, which appointed
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as receiver.  To protect
the depositors, the FDIC entered into a purchase and assumption
agreement with New Century Bank (doing business as Customer's 1st
Bank) of Phoenixville, Pa., to assume all of the deposits of the
failed bank.

The sole branch of the failed bank will reopen during normal
business hours as a division of Customer's 1st Bank, thereby
keeping the name USA Bank.  Depositors of failed bank will
automatically become depositors of new USA Bank.  Deposits will
continue to be insured by the FDIC, so there is no need for
customers to change their banking relationship in order to retain
their deposit insurance coverage.  Customers of the failed bank
should continue to use their existing branch until they receive
notice from New Century Bank that it has completed systems changes
to allow other New Century Bank branches to process their accounts
as well.

As of March 31, 2010, the failed bank had approximately
$193.3 million in total assets and $189.9 million in total
deposits.  New Century Bank did not pay the FDIC a premium for the
deposits of the failed bank.  In addition to assuming all of the
deposits of the failed bank, New Century Bank agreed to purchase
essentially all of the failed bank's assets.

The FDIC and New Century Bank entered into a loss-share
transaction on $159.1 million of the failed bank's assets.  New
Century Bank will share in the losses on the asset pools covered
under the loss-share agreement.  The loss-share transaction is
projected to maximize returns on the assets covered by keeping
them in the private sector.  The transaction also is expected to
minimize disruptions for loan customers. For more information on
loss share, visit:

  http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/lossshare/index.html

Customers who have questions about the transaction can call the
FDIC toll-free at 1-800-405-8215.  Interested parties also can
visit the FDIC's Web site at:

     http://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/usabankny.html

The FDIC estimates that the cost to the Deposit Insurance Fund
will be $61.7 million.  Compared to other alternatives, New
Century Bank's acquisition was the "least costly" resolution for
the FDIC's DIF.  The failed USA Bank is the 89th FDIC-insured
institution to fail in the nation this year, and the third in New
York.  The last FDIC-insured institution closed in the state was
The Park Avenue Bank, New York, on March 12, 2010.

USA CAPITAL: Wells Fargo Accused of Looting $60-Million
-------------------------------------------------------
John G. Edwards at Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that a
bankruptcy judge will decided whether investors and creditors of
USA Capital are entitled to a judgment from Wells Fargo Bank for
damages.  Plaintiffs are seeking to recover $60 million against
the bank.

According to the report, an adversary complaint alleges that Wells
Fargo participated in "massive looting, self-dealing, and related
Ponzi scheme" at USA Capital.   The allegations in the adversary
proceeding stem from the handling of 30 bank accounts that USA
Capital maintained at Wells Fargo, according to court papers.

Las Vegas Review-Journal relates that USA Capital, the biggest
hard-money lender to collapse in Nevada history, solicited money
from individual investors and used the money to make loans secured
by real estate.  The firm was managing $962 million in money and
assets for several thousand investors when it sought bankruptcy
court protection in April 2006.

The report notes that in earlier years, USA Capital owners Thomas
Hantges and Joseph Milanowski diverted investor money from the
Diversified Trust Deed Fund to cover operating losses at a time-
share hotel, real estate ventures and a technology company that
Hantges and Milanowski owned, the lawsuit claimed.7

VERTAFORE INC: Moody's Assigns 'B2' Corporate Family Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has assigned first-time corporate family
and probability of default ratings of B2 to Vertafore, Inc.
Concurrently, Moody's assigned B1 ratings to the company's
proposed $75 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility due
2015 and $550 million Senior Secured Term Loan due 2016.

On June 10, 2010, Vertafore announced that TPG Capital would
purchase the company from Hellman & Friedman and its co-investor
JMI Equity for a total consideration of $1.4 billion.

The B2 CFR reflects Vertafore's high initial pro-forma leverage of
about 7x (Moody's adjusted debt to EBITDA following the close of
the transaction) and the company's relatively small scale and
concentrated business profile as a niche provider of software
services for the property and casualty insurance industry (e.g.,
enterprise resource planning services for retail agents and
document/workflow management solutions for P&C carriers).

At the same time, the B2 rating is supported by the company's
leading market position (as one of two primary software providers
in the P&C space), its recurring revenue base driven by a
subscription hosting model and high levels of maintenance
renewals, and solid operating performance through economic cycles
in a business requiring minimal capital investment.  Vertafore's
customer base is stable and would incur significant switching
costs to change software providers given the need for agencies and
carriers to maintain an insurance distribution channel that
facilitates the timely flow of information and transactions
without disruption.

The stable outlook reflects our expectation that Vertafore will
continue to maintain its solid market position and generate
consistent levels of operating profits and cash flows.  Moody's
expects the company to reduce leverage to about 6 times (adjusted
debt to EBITDA) over the outlook period of 12 to 18 months.

These first-time ratings/assessments were assigned:

* Corporate Family Rating -- B2

* Probability of Default Rating -- B2

* $550 Million Senior Secured Term Loan due 2016 -- B1 (LGD-3,
  35%)

* $75 Million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility due 2015 --
  B1 (LGD3 -- 35%)

Headquartered in Bothell, Washington, Vertafore, Inc., with annual
revenues of about $290 million, is a provider of software
solutions to the P&C insurance industry.


VERTAFORE INC: S&P Assigns Corporate Credit Rating at 'B'
---------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Rating Services assigned its 'B' corporate
credit rating to Bothell, Wash.-based software and service
provider Vertafore Inc. The rating outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P assigned an issue-level rating of 'B+' (one
notch higher than the corporate credit rating on the company) to
Vertafore's $625 million first-lien credit facilities, consisting
of a $550 million term loan due 2016 and a $75 million revolving
credit facility due 2015.  S&P also assigned this debt a recovery
rating of '2', indicating S&P's expectations of substantial (70%-
90%) recovery for lenders in the event of a payment default.

Proceeds from the senior secured term loan, a $240 million
senior unsecured loan due 2017 (which S&P does not rate), and
$688 million of common equity provided by private-equity sponsor
TPG Capital will be used to finance the approximately $1.4 billion
purchase of Vertafore from its current private-equity sponsor.

"The rating on Vertafore reflects the company's narrow addressable
market, limited revenue base, and highly leveraged financial
profile," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Susan Madison.
Its solid niche market position, healthy operating margins, and
high recurring revenue base partially offset those factors.

                           *********

Monday's edition of the TCR delivers a list of indicative prices
for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par.  Prices are
obtained by TCR editors from a variety of outside sources during
the prior week we think are reliable.  Those sources may not,
however, be complete or accurate.  The Monday Bond Pricing table
is compiled on the Friday prior to publication.  Prices reported
are not intended to reflect actual trades.  Prices for actual
trades are probably different.  Our objective is to share
information, not make markets in publicly traded securities.
Nothing in the TCR constitutes an offer or solicitation to buy or
sell any security of any kind.  It is likely that some entity
affiliated with a TCR editor holds some position in the issuers"
public debt and equity securities about which we report.

Each Tuesday edition of the TCR contains a list of companies with
insolvent balance sheets whose shares trade higher than $3 per
share in public markets.  At first glance, this list may look like
the definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled.  Assets, for example, reported at historical cost
net of depreciation may understate the true value of a firm's
assets.  A company may establish reserves on its balance sheet for
liabilities that may never materialize.  The prices at which
equity securities trade in public market are determined by more
than a balance sheet solvency test.

A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Wednesday's edition of the TCR.  Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged.  Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com/

On Thursdays, the TCR delivers a list of recently filed
Chapter 11 cases involving less than $1,000,000 in assets and
liabilities delivered to nation's bankruptcy courts.  The list
includes links to freely downloadable images of these small-dollar
petitions in Acrobat PDF format.

Each Friday's edition of the TCR includes a review about a book of
interest to troubled company professionals.  All titles are
available at your local bookstore or through Amazon.com.  Go to
http://www.bankrupt.com/books/to order any title today.

Monthly Operating Reports are summarized in every Saturday edition
of the TCR.
