56 WALKER: Cancels Auction; Project 56 to Buy Assets for $18-Mil.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
56 Walker LLC notified the U.S. Bankruptcy  Court for the Southern
District of New York that Project 56 Walker LLC offered to
purchase the Debtor's property for $18,000,000, all cash and non-
contingent.

The Debtor elected to cancel the public auction scheduled for
Nov. 26, 2013, because it has not received any other qualified
competing bids by the Nov. 22 bid deadline.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Oct. 31, 2013,
Bankruptcy Judge Allan L. Gropper approved bidding procedures to
govern the sale of substantially all of 56 Walker LLC's real and
personal property.  The Court also approved the asset purchase
agreement dated Sept. 13, 2013, between the Debtor and Project 56
Walker, LLC.

                        About 56 Walker LLC

56 Walker LLC, the owner of a six-story building at 56 Walker
Street in the Tribeca section of Manhattan, returned to Chapter 11
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 13-11571) on May 13, 2013, this time
aiming for a $23 million sale to pay off about $14 million in
mortgages and $2 million in unsecured debt.  The Debtor scheduled
assets of $23,000,000 and liabilities of $15,996,104.

Judge Shelley Chapman was initially assigned to the case but the
case was transferred to Judge Allan L. Gropper.  Erica Feynman
Aisner, Esq., at Delbello Donnellan Weingarten Wise & Wiederkehr,
LLP, serves as the Debtor's counsel.

The previous Chapter 11 case began in September 2011 and was
dismissed in August 2012 when the bankruptcy judge refused to
approve a settlement.


ABERDEEN LAND: BBX Capital Opposes Dismissal/Stay Relief Motions
----------------------------------------------------------------
BBX Capital Asset Management, LLC, opposes Aberdeen Community
Development District and indenture trustee U.S. Bank, N.A.'s
(I) Joint Motion to Dismiss Bankruptcy Case, filed Sept. 24, 2013,
and (II) Joint Motion for Relief from the Automatic Stay, filed
Sept. 25, 2013.

BBX, which is unaffiliated with the Debtor, asserts that the
Debtor should be afforded an opportunity to pursue confirmation of
its Plan.  Thus, according to BBX, the Joint Motions should be
denied.

BBX says it supports the Debtor's efforts to reorganize and pursue
confirmation of its proposed plan, and for that reason, it entered
into its Plan Support Agreement with the Debtor.  "It appears the
Debtor has acted expediently to move towards confirmation of its
Plan as soon as reasonably practicable for the benefit of all
interested parties.  Providing the Debtor an opportunity to seek
confirmation in two months should not prejudice the Movants.

"BBX's proof of claim (POC #6) notes that the Debtor was indebted
to BBX as of the Petition Date in the amount of $16,857,764.90
pursuant to Note B and Note C.  While Note B has since been paid,
resulting in Note C being forgiven, BBX retains a right to share
in a portion of Lot sale proceeds going forward.  As such, BBX
agreed, in accordance with the Plan Support Agreement to accept
certain amounts in resolution of the Debtor's remaining
obligations to BBX -- i.e. between $2.6MM and $4.16MM, depending
on when the Debtor paid the release price."

available at http://bankrupt.com/misc/aberdeenland.doc92.pdf

ALLIED IRISH: Issues EUR500 Million Senior Unsecured Debt
---------------------------------------------------------
Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c., successfully completed the issue of a
EUR500m fixed rate senior unsecured debt issue with a maturity of
three years and coupon of 2.875 percent.  This is the first fully
unsecured, unguaranteed debt transaction by the bank since 2009
and represents a significant forward step in the re-entry of the
bank into international wholesale markets.

The transaction was arranged by Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs,
Nomura, JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley and attracted EUR3.6bn of
total demand from a diverse range of international investors.

Final pricing was at +235bps over mid swaps with a final order
book at these pricing levels of EUR3.19bn, in excess of six times
over-subscribed.

The deal attracted a very high quality mix of over 260 investors
from 25 countries including the UK, Germany, the Nordics, France &
Italy.  A total of 99 percent of the final allocations were made
to international investors.

Commenting on the transaction, AIB Chief Executive Officer David
Duffy said, "Today's transaction marks another important milestone
in our efforts to re-engage with the funding markets in a balanced
and measured way.  Our full re-entry into the senior unsecured
market on an unguaranteed basis after a number of year's absence
is a further indicator of AIB's progress."

AIB has c.521 billion ordinary shares, 99.8 percent of which are
held by the National Pensions Reserve Fund Commission (NPRFC),
mainly following the issue of 500 billion ordinary shares to the
NPRFC at EUR0.01 per share in July 2011.

                     About Allied Irish Banks

Allied Irish Banks, p.l.c. -- http://www.aibgroup.com/-- is a
major commercial bank based in Ireland.  It has an extensive
branch network across the country, a head office in Dublin and a
capital markets operation based in the International Financial
Services Centre in Dublin.  AIB also has retail and corporate
businesses in the UK, offices in Europe and a subsidiary company
in the Isle of Man and Jersey (Channel Islands).

Since the onset of the global and Irish financial crisis, AIB's
relationship with the Irish Government has changed significantly.

As at Dec. 31, 2010, the Government, through the National Pension
Reserve Fund Commission ("NPRFC"), held 49.9% of the ordinary
shares of the Company (the share of the voting rights at
shareholders' general meetings), 10,489,899,564 convertible non-
voting ("CNV") shares and 3.5 billion 2009 Preference Shares.  On
April 8, 2011, the NPRFC converted the total outstanding amount of
CNV shares into 10,489,899,564 ordinary shares of AIB, thereby
increasing its holding to 92.8% of the ordinary share capital.

In addition to its shareholders' interests, the Government's
relationship with AIB is reflected through formal and informal
oversight by the Minister and the Department of Finance and the
Central Bank of Ireland, representation on the Board of Directors
(three non-executive directors are Government nominees),
participation in NAMA, and otherwise.

The Company reported a loss of EUR2.29 billion in 2011, a loss of
EUR10.16 billion in 2010, and a loss of EUR2.33 billion in 2009.

Allied Irish's consolidated statement of financial position for
the year ended Dec. 31, 2011, showed EUR136.65 billion in total
assets, EUR122.18 billion in total liabilities and EUR14.46
billion in shareholders' equity.

Allied Irish's balance sheet at June 30, 2012, showed EUR129.85
billion in total assets, EUR116.59 billion in total liabilities
and EUR13.26 billion in total shareholders' equity.


ALLIED SYSTEMS: Black Diamond et al. Defend Huron's Fees
--------------------------------------------------------
The replacement DIP agents -- Black Diamond Commercial Finance,
L.L.C. and Spectrum Commercial Finance, LLC, as administrative
agent and collateral agent, respectively under Allied Systems
Holdings, Inc., et al.'s replacement DIP Facility -- responded to
the objection of Yucaipa American Alliance Fund II, L.P., et al.,
to the costs submitted pursuant to the replacement DIP order.

The Replacement DIP agents said Yucaipa, as part of its continued
scorched earth litigation strategy, has objected to the
reimbursement of an unspecified portion of the fees incurred by
Huron Consulting Group, in its capacity as financial advisor to
the replacement DIP agents.  The central thrust of its objection
was that Huron's fees were not rendered for the benefit of the
replacement DIP agents, but were instead provided to Black Diamond
and Spectrum in their capacity as Prepetition Agents under the
First Lien Credit Agreement to assist them in formulating a credit
bid.

The Replacement DIP Agents assert that Yucaipa is wrong.  Huron
has separately invoiced its fees and expenses for each engagement
and the fees at issue were for services provided by Huron in
connection with the provision of services requested by and
rendered to the replacement DIP agent.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter, Law360 reported that
an attorney for Ron Burkle's private equity firm The Yucaipa Cos.
LLC on Nov. 26 urged a New York state appeals court to restore a
credit agreement at issue in car hauler Allied Systems Holdings
Inc.'s bankruptcy, after a lower court threw out the deal.
According to the report, Yucaipa's attorney David E. Ross of
Kasowitz Benson Torres & Friedman LLP argued during a hearing in
Manhattan that Judge Charles E. Ramos had gone too far when he
threw out all the changes to a credit agreement.

                       About Allied Systems

BDCM Opportunity Fund II, LP, Spectrum Investment Partners LP, and
Black Diamond CLO 2005-1 Adviser L.L.C., filed involuntary
petitions for Allied Systems Holdings Inc. and Allied Systems Ltd.
(Bankr. D. Del. Case Nos. 12-11564 and 12-11565) on May 17, 2012.
The signatories of the involuntary petitions assert claims of at
least $52.8 million for loan defaults by the two companies.

Allied Systems, through its subsidiaries, provides logistics,
distribution, and transportation services for the automotive
industry in North America.

Allied Holdings Inc. first filed for chapter 11 protection (Bankr.
N.D. Ga. Case Nos. 05-12515 through 05-12537) on July 31, 2005.
Jeffrey W. Kelley, Esq., at Troutman Sanders, LLP, represented the
Debtors in the 2005 case.  Allied won confirmation of a
reorganization plan and emerged from bankruptcy in May 2007
with $265 million in first-lien debt and $50 million in second-
lien debt.

The petitioning creditors said Allied defaulted on payments of
$57.4 million on the first lien debt and $9.6 million on the
second.  They hold $47.9 million, or about 20% of the first-lien
debt, and about $5 million, or 17%, of the second-lien obligation.
They are represented by Adam G. Landis, Esq., and Kerri K.
Mumford, Esq., at Landis Rath & Cobb LLP; and Adam C. Harris,
Esq., and Robert J. Ward, Esq., at Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP.

Allied Systems Holdings Inc. formally put itself and 18
subsidiaries into bankruptcy reorganization June 10, 2012,
following the filing of the involuntary Chapter 11 petition.

The Company is being advised by the law firms of Troutman Sanders,
Gowling Lafleur Henderson, and Richards Layton & Finger.

The bankruptcy court process does not include captive insurance
company Haul Insurance Limited or any of the Company's Mexican or
Bermudan subsidiaries.  The Company also announced that it intends
to seek foreign recognition of its Chapter 11 cases in Canada.

An official committee of unsecured creditors has been appointed in
the case.  The Committee consists of Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation, Central States Pension Fund, Teamsters National
Automobile Transporters Industry Negotiating Committee, and
General Motors LLC.  The Committee is represented by Sidley Austin
LLP.

Yucaipa Cos. has 55 percent of the senior debt and took the
position it had the right to control actions the indenture trustee
would take on behalf of debt holders.  The state court ruled in
March 2013 that the loan documents didn't allow Yucaipa to vote.

In March 2013, the bankruptcy court also gave the official
creditors' committee authority to sue Yucaipa.  The suit includes
claims that the debt held by Yucaipa should be treated as equity
or subordinated so everyone else is paid before the Los Angeles-
based owner. The judge allowed Black Diamond to participate in the
lawsuit against Yucaipa and Allied directors.


ALLY FINANCIAL: Completes Offering of $1.3 Billion Common Shares
----------------------------------------------------------------
Ally Financial Inc. completed its previously announced private
placement of an aggregate of 216,667 shares of its common stock
for an aggregate price of approximately $1.3 billion and its
previously announced repurchase of all outstanding shares of its
Fixed Rate Cumulative Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock,
Series F-2, held by the United States Department of the Treasury,
including payment for the elimination or relinquishment of any
right to receive additional shares of common stock to be issued
pursuant to Section 6(a)(i)(B) of the certificate of designations
of the Series F-2 Preferred Stock.  Ally paid to the U.S. Treasury
a total of approximately $5.93 billion for the repurchase of the
Series F-2 Preferred Stock and the elimination of the Share
Adjustment Right.

In preparation for the completion of the private placement, Ally
amended its amended and restated certificate of incorporation and
bylaws on Nov. 19, 2013, to increase its authorized number of
shares of common stock from 2,021,384 shares to 2,238,051 shares.
Immediately following the completion of the private placement,
Ally amended and restated its Charter and Bylaws to decrease its
authorized number of shares of common stock from 2,238,051 shares
to 1,547,779 shares, which de-authorized shares of common stock
that were previously reserved for potential issuance pursuant to
the Share Adjustment Right.

AMERICAN AIRLINES: Bankruptcy Court Okays Deal With DoJ
-------------------------------------------------------
Judge Sean Lane of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of New York on Nov. 27 approved a deal, under which
the U.S. Department of Justice agreed to drop its antitrust
lawsuit over the merger between AMR Corp. and US Airways Group
Inc., if the airlines give up slots at Reagan National Airport in
Washington, D.C., and at New York's LaGuardia airports.

In a 35-page decision, Judge Lane said rejection of the
settlement "will unquestionably result in complex, protracted and
costly litigation."

The bankruptcy judge also said that AMR doesn't need to ask
creditors and stockholders to vote again to confirm its
restructuring plan since the settlement won't change the
treatment of their claims or equity interests.

Judge Lane also gave AMR and US Airways the green light to
consummate the merger without delay despite the pendency of an
antitrust lawsuit filed by a group of travel agents and business
passengers to block the merger.

The group, represented by San Francisco-based lawyers Joseph
Alioto and David Cook, used a provision of U.S. antitrust law
that allows private individuals to sue companies over claims
they'll face "irreparable harm" from merger.

In his written ruling, Judge Lane said the group failed to offer
any evidence of "irreparable harm" if the deal pushed through.

"The court has no evidence whatsoever regarding who the
plaintiffs are, what the nature of their interest in the airline
industry is, or how they will be individually harmed by the
proposed merger," said the bankruptcy judge who also rejected the
temporary restraining order sought by the group to stall the
merger.

The group could appeal Judge Lane's ruling, which could add some
uncertainty to the timetable for closing the deal, though any
appeal would likely be expedited, Reuters reported.

AMR intends to complete the merger on Dec. 9.  The last day of
trading of all outstanding securities of AMR and the common stock
of US Airways will be Dec. 6.

Stephen Karotkin, an AMR lawyer, said the company is pleased with
the judge's ruling.  He told Judge Lane that AMR's total value
for its stakeholders under the plan is about $13.1 billion based
on current trading, representing an increase of $2.7 billion
since Aug. 7 when a valuation was last completed, according to a
report by Bloomberg News.

The Washington judge in the Justice Department's antitrust case
must also approve the terms of the settlement after a public
comment period that runs through Feb. 7, the report said.  The
Government will publish the comments, so the judge in Washington
can't formally approve the antitrust settlement around March 10.

The merger is the linchpin of AMR's bid to emerge from bankruptcy
after two years and repay creditors.  Judge Lane approved the
company's restructuring plan in September while barring it from
taking effect until the merger won regulatory clearance.

The Justice Department filed its antitrust lawsuit in August to
block the merger, arguing the combination would leave four
airlines controlling more than 80% of U.S. air traffic and drive
up prices.  The agency also argued that AMR can emerge from
bankruptcy and compete on its own without the merger.

AMR and US Airways defended the merger, arguing that it would
benefit passengers by giving them more choices and would generate
more than $500 million a year in benefits.

The merger agreement gives 28% of the stock of the combined
company to US Airways shareholders, with the remaining 72% going
to AMR creditors, unions, certain employees and shareholders.

The antitrust settlement was supported by the Allied Pilots
Association, the Association of Professional Flight Attendants,
the Transport Workers Union of America, AFL-CIO and an Ad Hoc
Committee of AMR Corporation Creditors.  The Official Committee
of Unsecured Creditors also supported the Debtors' settlement.

The federal antitrust lawsuit filed on Aug. 13, 2013, is U.S. v.
US Airways Group Inc., Case No. 13-cv-01236, before Judge Colleen
Kollar-Kotelly of the U.S. District Court for the District of
Columbia.

              Clayton Plaintiffs' TRO Request Denied

The sole objection to the antitrust settlement was filed by the
several individuals who brought an adversary proceeding under the
private civil antitrust suit provision in Section 16 of the
Clayton Act (the "Clayton Plaintiffs").  The Clayton Plaintiffs
describe themselves as individuals who "are and will be direct
purchasers of airline tickets from defendants."  The Clayton
Plaintiffs filed a motion for a temporary restraining order
seeking to block the merger.

The complaint filed in the Clayton Adversary alleges that the
merger "may substantially lessen competition or tend to create a
monopoly in any section of the country," thereby violating
Section 7 of the Clayton Act.  In their complaint, the Clayton
Plaintiffs seek to enjoin the merger or to require divestiture.
The Clayton Plaintiffs also seek costs, including attorney's fees
under Section 16 of the Clayton Act.

Judge Lane denied the TRO request, holding that as a threshold
matter, the Clayton Plaintiffs have failed to demonstrate
irreparable harm to them as individuals.  Judge Lane pointed out
that in the place of the requisite evidence, the TRO Motion
contains a number of sweeping and conclusory allegations about
the harm to the individual plaintiffs.  Even assuming that those
statements had evidentiary support -- and they do not -- they
would be insufficient to satisfy the irreparable harm element for
purposes of the TRO Motion, Judge Lane ruled.

Judge Lane further ruled that the Plaintiffs also fail to
establish irreparable harm justifying the blocking of the merger
for another independent reason: they have the alternative remedy
of divestiture available if they prevail on the merits of their
lawsuit.  The Defendants explicitly concede the availability of
the divestiture remedy, Judge Lane said.  The Plaintiffs have not
alleged, much less established, that divestiture is unavailable
or somehow inadequate if they prevailed on the merits of their
lawsuit, Judge Lane held.

The Court also noted that the Plaintiffs' claim of irreparable
harm is undercut by their delay in seeking injunctive relief and
by their general delay in bringing these issues to the Court.
Judge Lane pointed out that the Clayton Adversary was filed in
early August, merely a few days before the start of the hearing
on confirmation, but that was months after this merger was
approved by the Court without any objection. And when the
Plaintiffs finally decided to act regarding the merger, they
failed to seek injunctive relief by motion at the same time they
filed the Complaint, Judge Lane further noted.

AMERICAN AMEX: Sable Palm Does Not Oppose Plan Confirmation
-----------------------------------------------------------
Sable Palm Development does not oppose the confirmation of
American Amex, Inc.'s Second Amended Plan of Reorganization dated
Oct. 11, 2013, provided that that the confirmation order include
language incorporating the substantive terms of the Stipulation,
Dkt. No. 16 in Sable Palm Development v. American Amex Inc., et
al. adv. Case #13-03233, Bank. D. Or. (the "Adversary
Proceeding").

In the Stipulation, Sable Palm Development and the Debtor agreed
to: (1) the amount and allowance of Sable Palm's claim in the
Bankruptcy case; (2) include language in the Plan's confirmation
order that, should the sale contemplated in the Plan not close,
secured creditors will be allowed to credit bid their debt in
connection with the alternative dispositions of assets identified
in the Plan; and (3) include language in the Plan's confirmation
order that preserves Sable Palm Development's right to pursue
claims raised in the Adversary Proceeding, in a forum other than
that adversary proceeding.

As reported in the TCR on Oct. 24, 2013, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Oregon approved the Second Amended Disclosure
Statement describing the Debtor's Plan dated Oct. 11, 2013.

Under the Plan, all creditors are receiving full payment.

According to the Disclosure Statement, Debtor allegedly had an
agreement with Erwin Singh Braich, Trustee of the Peregrine Trust,
whereby Braich would purchase the entire mine property.

Payments and distributions under the Plan will be funded by the
sale of the Buffalo Mine.  The Debtor plans to submit the sale for
approval by the Bankruptcy Court.  Should Braich not close, then
the property would be sold to the highest bidder, upon terms set
forth in the Plan and in the Notice of Sale to be filed.

The Debtor believes the sale of the Buffalo Mine should fetch at
least $27 million, which is more than enough to pay all claims
scheduled and/or filed.

2013, is available at:

ANTIOCH COMPANY: Has Green Light to Sell Real Property to Sangamon
------------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Katherine A. Constantine of the Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Minnesota authorized The Antioch Company, et al., to
sell certain of their real property to Sangamon, LLC or its
assignee, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement.

The Debtors also won Court permission to assume and assign the
lease between the Debtors and Antioch University and the lease
between the Debtors and E-Health Data Solutions LLC pursuant to
Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The stalking horse asset purchase agreement was twice amended,
first to extend the feasibility period for five days and then to
reduce the purchase price from $750,000 to $700,000.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Oct. 9, 2013, the
Court, in an order dated Sept. 27, approved in their entirety
(i) the stalking horse purchase agreement with Sangamon, LLC; and
the break-up fee set at 4% of the initial purchase price.

The sale will include a parcel of commercial real property,
commonly known as 888 Dayton Street in Yellow Springs, Ohio.  The
leases are also included in the sale.

In a separate order dated Sept. 30, the Court authorized the
Debtor to enter into a postpetition agreement with Panstoria,
Inc., amending the agreement to provide that the definitions of
StoryBook Software, Memory Manager Software, Artisan Program, and
Historian Program include versions 3.0 and 4.0 of the respective
software/programs.

As reported in the TCR on Sept. 16, the Debtors are selling and
assigning their rights to the use of the StoryBook Software and
Memory Manager Software to Panstoria in exchange for cash and
other consideration to the estates.

Panstoria (formerly known as Caspedia Corporation), has partnered
with the Debtors to support all of the Debtors' digital platform
offerings.  Over the years, the Debtors and Panstoria have been
parties to various licensing and software agreements for certain
digital and printing capabilities.  Panstoria is the owner of the
primary software that supports the Debtors' current digital
business.  On June 24, 2011, Panstoria and Antioch executed a
Software License Agreement (the StoryBook Agreement), whereby
Antioch obtained a non-exclusive license to reproduce and
sublicense the Artisan Program (as modified) under the title
"StoryBook Creator Plus 4.0"

The Agreement outlines economic factors (both cash and waiver of
certain claims) well as other non-economic obligations between the
parties.  Under the terms of the agreement, Antioch is agreeing to
perform these, subject to Court approval:

   a. acknowledge that the license under Section 2(d) of the
      StoryBook Agreement is terminated, Antioch no longer has any
      rights in or to the Encryption Code, and Antioch assigns any
      and all of its licensed interests that it may have in the
      Encryption Code back to Panstoria;

   b. grant Panstoria the right and license to market and sell on
      a non-exclusive basis Antioch's digital art kits for a
      period of six months from the Effective Date; and

   c. grant Panstoria permission to release Updates to the
      StoryBook Software, and Updates to the Memory Manager
      Software at any time prior to the termination of the
      Agreement, including Updates that will create a print
      service for StoryBook Users that will permit them to order
      print products from Panstoria.

ANTIOCH COMPANY: Confirms Second Amended Joint Reorganization Plan
------------------------------------------------------------------
The Antioch Company, et al., and the Official Committee of
Unsecured Creditors, confirmed on Nov. 14, 2013, their Second
Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization dated Nov. 13, 2013.

The Plan provides for two alternative structures for
reorganization.  One alternative is a stand-alone reorganization.
Under that alternative, the Plan calls for (a) the substantive
reorganization of Antioch, the parent company of the other
Debtors, either through the reorganization of that entity or the
formation of a new entity and contribution of certain of the
Debtors' assets into that entity for the purpose of running the
reorganized business; (b) the distribution of cash and certain
other assets of the Debtors, including equity interests in the
Reorganized Company, to a liquidating trust for the benefit of
creditors; and (c) the dissolution of the other Debtors.

The second alternative is a sponsored version of the Plan, under
which an investor would acquire the Reorganized Company.  Under
that alternative, the cash generated from that acquisition would
be contributed to a liquidating trust for the benefit of
creditors along with the cash and other assets of the Debtors not
necessary for the business of the Reorganized Company.

"We are also attempting to extend the maturity date of all
outstanding debt securities due in the years 2012 and 2013, but
can provide no assurance that the holders of such securities will
agree to extend the maturity date on these securities on
acceptable terms.  We are also discussing the possibility of these
debt holders converting the securities into equity.  If our debt
holders choose not to convert certain of these securities into
equity, we will need to repay such debt, or reach an agreement
with the debt holders to extend the terms thereof.  If we are
forced to repay the debt, this need for funds would have a
material adverse impact on our business operations, financial
condition and prospects, would threaten our ability to operate as
a going concern and may force us to seek bankruptcy protection,"
the Company said in the Quarterly Report.

BROADWAY FINANCIAL: Stockholders OK Increase of Authorized Shares
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The annual meeting of stockholders of Broadway Financial
Corporation, parent company of Broadway Federal Bank, f.s.b., was
held on Nov. 27, 2013, at which the stockholders:

   (1) elected Robert Davidson and Javier Leon as directors to
       serve until the Annual Meeting to be held in the year 2016
       and until their successors are elected and have been
       qualified;

   (2) ratified the appointment of Crowe Horwath LLP as the
       Company's independent registered public accounting firm for
       the year ending Dec. 31, 2013;

   (3) approved the Company's executive compensation;

   (4) approved the resolution to amend the Company's Certificate
       of Incorporation to increase the Company's number of
       authorized shares of common stock from 8,000,000 to
       50,000,000;

   (5) approved the resolution to amend the Company's Certificate
       of Incorporation authorizing the Company to issue up to
       5,000,000 shares of a new class of non-voting common stock;
       and

   (6) approved amendments to the Company's 2008 Long-Term
       Incentive Plan, including an increase in the number of
       shares of Common Stock that are reserved for future
       issuance pursuant to the LTIP to 2,000,000 shares.

On Dec. 2, 2013, the Company's 13,299 outstanding shares of Series
F Common Stock Equivalents was automatically converted into
13,299,000 shares of Common Stock, representing 66.02 percent of
the Company's total equity, and its 6,982 shares of Series G Non-
Voting Preferred Stock was automatically converted into 698,200
shares of non-voting Common Stock, representing 3.47 percent of
the Company's total equity.  The Common Stock Equivalents
automatically convert at the rate of 1,000 shares of Common Stock
for each share of Common Stock Equivalents, and the Series G
Preferred automatically convert at the rate of 100 shares of
Common Stock for each share of Series G Preferred.

The Common Stock Equivalents and Series G Preferred had been
issued on Aug. 22, 2013, in exchange for: (i) all five series of
the Company's formerly outstanding preferred stock (Series A
through E), with an aggregate liquidation value or preference of
$17.6 million, including the TARP Preferred Stock that had been
issued to the U.S. Department of the Treasury pursuant to the
Capital Purchase Program component of the Treasury Department's
Troubled Asset Relief Program, (ii) all of the accumulated
dividends on the TARP Preferred Stock, and (iii) $2.6 million
principal amount of the Company's bank debt, as part of a
Recapitalization of the Company's balance sheet.  The Company
issued the Common Stock Equivalents, in lieu of Common Stock,
because the Company did not have a sufficient number of authorized
shares to complete the Recapitalization.

Chief Executive Officer, Wayne Bradshaw stated, "We are pleased to
report that stockholders overwhelmingly supported our proposals
presented at the Annual Meeting this week, in particular the
proposals to amend our Certificate of Incorporation to increase
the number of authorized shares of Common Stock and authorize the
Company to issue shares of a new series of non-voting Common
Stock.  As a result, our plan to simplify the equity portion of
our balance sheet, which commenced with the recently completed
Recapitalization, has now been fully realized.  For the
foreseeable future, all of our equity securities will consist of
either shares of Common Stock or non-voting Common Stock, as all
of our series of outstanding preferred stock have been eliminated.
We believe that these changes to our capital structure will
enhance our ability to access additional equity capital in the
future.

"Looking ahead, we are planning to continue rebuilding our loan
portfolio to grow net interest income, as well as begin the
process of negotiating an extension of the maturity of our
subordinated debentures that mature in March 2014.  In conjunction
with that extension, we plan to raise additional equity capital to
strengthen the balance sheets of both the Company and the Bank,
and provide capital for growth."

"We wish to thank our stockholders again for their continued
support, and we remain focused on continuing our efforts to resume
growth for the Company and increase value for our stockholders."

                  Going Concern/Bankruptcy Warning

"During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company formed a joint
venture with one dive entity, and in the first quarter of 2012,
purchased the assets of another, with assumption of their retail
location lease.  The Company accomplished both transactions
predominantly through issuance of restricted common stock in BWMG.
The Company believed these transactions would help generate
sufficient working capital in the future.  However, to-date
neither generated profit or cash-flow.  Effective May 31, 2013,
the Company closed and ceased operations at its retail facility.
The Company is still involved in the joint venture.  See Note 18.
JOINT VENTURE EQUITY EXCHANGE AGREEMENT and Note 8.  ASSET
PURCHASE for further discussion of these transactions.  As a
result, the Company does not expect that existing cash flow will
be sufficient to fund presently anticipated operations beyond the
fourth quarter of 2013.  This raises substantial doubt about
BWMG's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will
need to raise additional funds and is currently exploring
alternative sources of financing.  We have issued a number of
convertible debentures as an interim measure to finance our
working capital needs as discussed in Note 12.  CONVERTIBLE
DEBENTURES and may continue to raise additional capital through
sale of restricted common stock or other securities, and obtained
some short term loans.  We have paid for legal and consulting
services with restricted stock to maximize working capital.  We
intend to continue this practice when possible.  We have
implemented some cost saving measures and will continue to explore
more to reduce operating expenses.

"If we fail to raise additional funds when needed, or do not have
sufficient cash flows from sales, we may be required to scale back
or cease operations, liquidate our assets and possibly seek
bankruptcy protection.  The accompanying consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the
outcome of this uncertainty."

Cameron County will retain its lien until paid in full,
notwithstanding the transfer of the property to Pineda.

BUILDERS GROUP: Balks at Secured Creditor's Ch.7 Conversion Bid
---------------------------------------------------------------
Builders Group & Development Corp., opposed CPG/GS NPL LLC's
motion to dismiss or convert the Debtor's Chapter 11 case to one
under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

According to the Debtor, the motion filed on Nov. 7, 2013, is
merely another attempt by CPG to bury Builders in paper and legal
expenses to try to cause Builders' president Jorge Rios to
surrender.  CPG's conduct suggested it believes that by repeating
the same allegations over and over, it somehow changes the
veracity of the allegations.

Cupey Bowling & Entertainment Center, Inc., a party-in-interest to
the restructuring case, on Nov. 13 filed a joinder to CPG/GS'
motion to convert case.

Cupey Bowling said that the present condition of the Cupey Mall is
one of extreme deterioration of the physical plant which threatens
the health of tenants, its employees and customers alike.  The
Debtor has not been able to cope with the increasing number of
problems of the mall, both financially and in managing the mall,
while the businesses of the tenants, as Cupey Bowling, continue to
loose clients and income due to the Debtor's current situation.

CPG/GS, in its motion, asserted the Debtor has no equity in
CPG/GS' collateral, nor does it have any prospects for
reorganization.  CPG/GS does not consent to the Debtor's use of
its cash collateral, and the Court has not allowed the Debtor to
use the same.

The Court will consider CPG/GS's request at a hearing on Dec. 3,
2013, at 2:00 p.m.

                       About Builders Group

Rico.  The Company sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D.P.R.
Case No. 13-04867) on June 12, 2013, in San Juan, Puerto Rico, its
home-town.  The company sought bankruptcy on the eve of a
foreclosure sale of its property.  The Debtor estimated at least
$10 million in assets and liabilities in its petition.  The Debtor
is represented by Kendra Loomis, Esq. at G A Carlo-Altieri &
Associates.  Jose M. Monge Robertin, CPA, and Monge Robertin &
Asociados Inc. serve as the Debtor's CPA/Insolvency and
Restructuring Advisor.


BUILDERS GROUP: Court Won't Reconsider Order on Exclusivity Period
------------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Puerto Rico denied
Builders Group & Development Corp.'s motion to reconsider a prior
order denying extension of the exclusivity period.

The Court said it does not understand why extending the
exclusivity period is essential to the Debtor's reorganization in
light of present and disclosed facts.

The Debtor, in its motion to reconsider, said CPG/GS NPL, LLC,
makes no payment for electric or water services, and CPG/GS is
still collecting some of the rents of the Cupey Professional Mall,
at least $18,000 per month paid by Amigo, and still will not
respond to requests for information as to collections.

Additionally, the Debtor said that an outline of a plan had been
prepared, the amount of and treatment of CPG's claim had not yet
been determined.  But, with ball park figures, this can be
achieved by Dec. 9.  Hence, the exclusivity period is essential to
the Debtor's reorganization.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Oct. 31, 2013, the
Bankruptcy Court denied the request of the Debtor for a longer
extension of its exclusive periods to file and solicit Chapter 11
plan votes.  The Court gave the Debtor until Dec. 9 to file
a plan.  The Court also extended until Dec. 9 the period for the
Debtor to assume or reject the leases.

CPG/GS PR NPL LLC, in its objection to the Debtor's motion to
extend the exclusivity period, stated that any extension is
unwarranted, and will serve only to delay resolution of the case.

BUILDERS GROUP: Wants Expenses Surcharged Against Mall Rents
------------------------------------------------------------
Builders Group & Development Corp., filed papers with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Puerto Rico, seeking to allow
the Debtor to deduct the expenses incurred from rent payments
received and other funds on deposit with the Court; and surcharge
expenses against the Mall rents on a monthly basis, from the time
of the filing of the bankruptcy petition, less cash collateral
used.

The Debtor seeks to surcharge the collateral for the expenses
necessary to preserve the property -- Cupey Professional Mall.
According to the Debtor, the surcharge expenses are necessary
because the Cupey Mall could not have continued in operation, nor
would Cupey Mall have received the rents that it has received, if
the expenses were not incurred.  The claimed expenses are also
quite minimal and reasonable.  And the claimed expenses have been
incurred primarily for the benefit of CPG/GS NPL, LLC up to this
point.

above LIBOR to borrow under the facility. The bank loan matures on
Jan. 1, 2018, and carries Moody's B3 rating and Standard & Poor's

a net loss of $666.70 million on $8.57 billion of net revenues
during the prior year.  The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30,
2013, showed $26.09 billion in total assets, $27.59 billion in

                           *     *     *

Caesars Entertainment carries a 'CCC' long-term issuer default
rating, with negative outlook, from Fitch and a 'Caa1' corporate
family rating with negative outlook from Moody's Investors
Service.

As reported in the TCR on Feb. 5, 2013, Moody's Investors Service
lowered the Speculative Grade Liquidity rating of Caesars
Entertainment Corporation to SGL-3 from SGL-2, reflecting
declining revolver availability and Moody's concerns that Caesars'
earnings and cash flow will remain under pressure causing the
company's negative cash flow to worsen.

In the May 7, 2013, edition of the TCR, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services said that it lowered its corporate credit ratings on Las
Vegas-based Caesars Entertainment Corp. (CEC) and wholly owned
subsidiary Caesars Entertainment Operating Co. (CEOC) to 'CCC+'
from 'B-'.

"The downgrade reflects weaker-than-expected operating performance
in the first quarter, and our view that Caesars' capital structure
may be unsustainable over the next two years based on our EBITDA
forecast for the company," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst
Melissa Long.


CAMCO FINANCIAL: Steven Gerbel Held 5.2% Equity Stake at Nov. 14
----------------------------------------------------------------
In a Schedule 13G filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, Steven R. Gerbel and Brown Trout Management, LLC,
disclosed that as of Nov. 14, 2013, they beneficially owned
738,537 shares of common stock of Camco Financial Corporation
representing 5.2 percent of the shares outstanding.  A copy of the
regulatory filing is available for free at http://is.gd/ryNoK2

                       About Camco Financial

Cambridge, Ohio-based Camco Financial Corporation is a bank
holding company that was organized under Delaware law in 1970.
Camco is engaged in the financial services business in Ohio,
Kentucky and West Virginia, through its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Advantage Bank, an Ohio bank.  On March 31, 2011, Camco divested
activities related to Camco Title Agency and decertified as a
financial holding company.  Camco remains a bank holding company
and continues to be regulated by the Federal Reserve Board.

Plante & Moran PLLC, in Auburn Hills, Michigan, noted that the
Corporation's bank subsidiary is not in compliance with revised
minimum regulatory capital requirements under a formal regulatory
agreement with the banking regulators, and that failure to comply
with the regulatory agreement may result in additional regulatory
enforcement actions.

Camco's wholly-owned subsidiary Advantage Bank's Tier 1 capital
does not meet the requirements set forth in the 2012 Consent
Order.  As a result, the Corporation will need to increase capital
levels.

The Corporation reported net earnings of $4.2 million on net
interest income (before provision for loan losses) of
$23.9 million in 2012, compared with net earnings of $214,000 on
net interest income of $214,000 on net interest income (before
provision for loan losses) of $25.9 million in 2011.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2013, showed
$760.59 million in total assets, $693.31 million in total
liabilities, and $67.28 million in total stockholders' equity.


CANCER GENETICS: Mayo Clinic Joint Venture Projects Revealed
------------------------------------------------------------
Cancer Genetics, Inc., hosted an event on Nov. 22, 2013, with Mayo
Clinic announcing the first projects to be pursued by their joint
venture, which is set to develop targeted diagnostic panels that
leverage next generation sequencing.

CGI and Mayo Clinic formed Oncospire Genomics, based in Rochester,
Minnesota, in May 2013, to pursue the development of novel and
unique NGS diagnostic panels that seek to provide clinically
relevant and actionable insight in areas of critical need in
oncology.  Oncospire, a joint venture equally owned by both
parties, will initially pursue the development of NGS panels for
lung cancer, multiple myeloma, and follicular lymphoma.

   * With 1.6 million new cases diagnosed annually, lung cancer is
     a category where improved earlier diagnosis and
     differentiation is critical to improved patient outcomes.  To
     date, only a handful of biomarkers for lung cancer have been
     identified, and they do not fully address the needs to
     provide diagnostic and predictive information.

   * There are approximately 200,000 new cases of multiple myeloma
     diagnosed annually, and no comprehensive genomic panel that
     can be utilized to predict early transformation from
     monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance to
     multiple myeloma, and currently available tests are
     expensive, invasive, and often require multiple biopsies.

   * Follicular lymphoma represents approximately 30 percent of
     all non-Hodgkin lymphomas, and is the second most common
     lymphoma in the U.S.  The Company believes predicting the
     risk progression of follicular lymphoma is a key unmet
     clinical need, with a potential market of up to 45,000 tests
     annually based on disease prevalence and number of biopsies
     performed.

The "team science" based approach, a multi-disciplinary approach
that combines leading clinicians with world-class scientists,
pathologists, bioinformaticians and laboratory medicine
professionals, will combine Mayo Clinic's next generation
sequencing capabilities and world-class biobank with CGI's
scientific leadership, disease-focused genomic knowledge and
commercial acumen.  CGI recently invested $1 million in Oncospire,
and will invest up to an additional $5 million upon achieving
project development milestones.

Presenters at the event include Gianrico Farrugia, M.D., director
of Mayo Clinic's Center for Individualized Medicine, R.S.K.
Chaganti, Ph.D., founder and chairman of CGI and the William E.
Snee Chair of Cell Biology and Medicine at Memorial Sloan-
Kettering Cancer Center; and Panna Sharma, president and CEO of
CGI.

CYCLONE POWER: Releases Progress Letter to Shareholders
-------------------------------------------------------
Cyclone Power Technologies has filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the
period ended Sept. 30, 2013, and has released the following
progress report to its shareholders:

Dear Shareholders:

Warm greetings from South Florida!  Through the third quarter of
2013, Cyclone has made substantial advancements in our core
technology, added key partners to assist in the commercialization
of our engines, and continued to generate revenue and decrease
operating expenses.  Our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was filed
with the Securities & Exchange Commission this week, and we urge
our shareholders to review it.  Notable achievements during the
period and additional forward looking information are highlighted
below:

Continued Revenue & Decreased Expenses

Cyclone generated $715,382 of revenue during the nine month period
ended September 30, 2013, which was slightly less than the same
period in 2012 of $882,490.  However, operating expenses for the
2013 period decreased approximately 23% and net loss decreased
approximately 12% over the same period in 2012.  Management has
made a sincere effort to cut costs and focus resources on revenue-
producing projects that are most likely to result in widely
marketable products.  We are extremely encouraged by this positive
trend which will form the foundation for future growth, including
the commencement of engine sales in 2014.

Technology and Business Advancements

The Company has made considerable progress towards the
commercialization of our Waste Heat Engine.  This summer we
commenced work with The Ohio State University's Center for
Automotive Research (CAR), and in just a few months they conducted
extensive internal dynamic analysis and, in conjunction with
Cyclone's engineering team, assisted in updating the design and
completing the re-build of this compact external heat engine.  The
resulting model - labeled the WHE-DR, which stands for "delta" (3
cylinders) and "rotary" valve - has now demonstrated increased
durability, decreased noise and vibration, and the elimination of
over 60% of its moving parts.  This is expected to cut
manufacturing costs in half, thereby greatly increasing overall
marketability of this product.

Based on these advancements, our plan is to start transitioning
the WHE-DR to limited scale manufacturing by the end of this year
and have our first-release engines delivered to customers in Q1/Q2
of 2014.  It is important to understand that these engines will
not be available for widespread commercial sales just yet.
Rather, these engines will be sold to our "vertical technology"
partners - companies including Phoenix Power that integrate our
engines with waste motor oil furnaces, B&W Constructors that
builds methane digesters and flares for small pig farms, and Clean
Carbon that works with technologies like biochar kilns to convert
agricultural waste to usable byproducts.

These three customers have already provided letters of interest
for the first 300 engines we produce, and Phoenix has committed to
a minimum of 6,000 engines over the first five years in order to
maintain its full licensing rights.  There are also hundreds of
other companies that manufacture heat producing equipment for
which our WHE-DR will provide a material "value-add" to the end-
user in the generation of shaft power from otherwise wasted heat.
Our sales projections for the first-release WHE-DR are
approximately $2 million in 2014 ? revenue which will support the
mass manufacturing phase of product development.

We believe that the team we have compiled over the last few
months, including CAR and our manufacturer Precision CNC, provide
greater credence to our forecasts for product readiness.  These
partners significantly increase our collective skills, knowledge
and resources in technology commercialization.  Management hopes
that our shareholders realize how important this team-building is
to the success of our growing business, and how we have made great
strides in these pursuits over the last year.

Our focus this year has been to bring products to market as
efficiently as possible.  Because of these strategic choices,
there are some projects that will not be completed in 2013 as
previously discussed.  The delivery date of our U.S. Army contract
has been bi-laterally extended until April 2014, in part due to
government delays outside of our control.  Additionally, we have
not had the resources to devote to our Land Speed Record attempt,
and therefore, have put it on hold this year.  Similarly, our
Combilift project will be extended into 2014.  Both the LSR
streamliner and the Combilift equipment will utilize the Mark 5
model engine, which is truly a remarkable product that we will
finish prototyping in 2014.  These announcements should not
disappoint, but rather reassure our shareholders that we are
focused on completing our first product (the WHE) that will
provide significant sales revenue starting next year.

Capital Markets and Funding

We have seen continued pressure on the public stock market side of
our business.  Admittedly, this is partly because our development
has taken longer than previously anticipated, which is addressed
above.  It is also a result of certain promissory notes being
converted to common stock and sold into the market over the last
few quarters.  Like many other micro-cap entities, Cyclone issued
these convertible notes over the last year to fund a material
portion of our operational and R&D shortfall.  The Company is
grateful to these funding groups, and understands that liquidating
their positions at note maturity is a standard investment
strategy.

As a long term stock holder, one should not correlate these
selling activities with the progress of our business model and the
viability of our technology.  Further, some positive consequences
have resulted from our reduced market capitalization; namely, at
our current valuation we now fit the models of many more strategic
long-term investor groups. To these clean-tech and green-energy
funding sources we believe that our story is quite compelling, as
Cyclone has demonstrated:

   -- Globally patented engine technology with potentially "game
      changing" attributes

   -- Worldwide markets with a current invested customer base that
      includes the U.S. Army

   -- Focused path to commercialization for our initial engine
      products, which is showing clear results

   -- Experienced technical team, manufacturing experts, and
      management that is finding its stride

   -- Current revenue with consistent sales forecasted to start
      next year

Our shareholders and supporters must not overlook these strengths
of Cyclone, as they truly separate us from the vast majority of
"micro-cap" companies out there.  We are proud of and energized by
these accomplishments, and will continue to work diligently until
they have yielded results for our shareholders.

On behalf of the entire Cyclone team, thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Harry Schoell
Chairman

Christopher Nelson
President

DC DEVELOPMENT: Files Proposed Plan of Liquidation
--------------------------------------------------
D.C. Development, LLC ("DCD"), Recreational Industries, Inc.
("RI"), Wisp Resort Development, Inc. ("WRD") and The Clubs at
Wisp, LLC ("TWC"), and the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors appointed in the Debtors' Chapter 11 cases, filed with
the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland on a
proposed Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Liquidation dated Nov. 11, 2013.

According to the explanatory Disclosure Statement, the primary
purpose of the Plan is to liquidate the remaining non-Cash assets
of the Debtors to Cash and to distribute the Cash to the holders
of Allowed Claims against the Estates consistent with the
provisions of the Plan and the Bankruptcy Code.

Following the sales of substantially all of the Debtors' business
assets, the Debtors' remaining assets include: (i) Cash; (ii) the
Avoidance Actions and proceeds therefrom; (iii) the Roads and Open
Space Real Property; (iv) a time share at the Ritz Carlton in
Aspen, Colorado owned by TCW; and (v) the real properties subject
to the Secured Claims of United Bank and Clear Mountain Bank,
which remain owned by DCD as of the date of this Disclosure
Statement, described in Article 4.1 of the Plan.

The Plan Administrator appointed under the Plan will prosecute and
attempt to liquidate the Avoidance Actions to Cash.  Because the
Roads and Open Space Real Property are not believed to have
salability, they will be deemed abandoned (and possibly gifted to
a third party) if still owned by DCD on the Effective Date.  The
Plan Administrator intends either to permit Centra Bank and Clear
Mountain Bank to foreclose on the real properties subject to their
respective Liens, or to surrender the properties by providing a
deed in lieu of foreclosure.

Only the holders of General Unsecured Claims in Classes 3A, 3B, 3C
and 3D are entitled to vote on the Plan.  No other Classes of
Claims or Interests are entitled to vote.  Holders of Secured
Claims in Classes 1A-D and Priority Non-Tax Claims in Classes 2A-D
are not entitled to vote because they are considered "unimpaired"
and deemed to have accepted the Plan.  Holders of Equity Interests
in Classes 4A-D are not entitled to vote because, while they are
impaired, they will received no distribution or property on
account of their Equity Interests in the Debtors and thus are
deemed to have rejected the Plan.

The holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims in DCD (Class 3A)
will receive their Pro Rata Share of all remaining distributions
under the Plan after all Allowed Claims in Articles 2.1, 2.2, 2.3,
2.4, and 4.2 are paid in full or otherwise treated as provided for
under the Plan.

The holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims in RI (Class 3B)
will receive their Pro Rata Share of all remaining distributions
under the Plan after all Allowed Claims in Articles 2.1, 2.2, 2.3,
2.4, and 4.2 are paid in full or otherwise treated as provided for
under this Plan.  In addition, holders of Allowed Claims in Class
3B, except for BB&T, also will receive their Pro Rata Share of the
BB&T GUC Payment, notwithstanding whether Allowed Claims against
RI are paid in full or in part.

The holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims in WRD (Class 3C)
will receive their Pro Rata Share of all remaining distributions
under the Plan after all Allowed Claims in Articles 2.1, 2.2, 2.3,
2.4, and 4.2 are paid in full or otherwise treated as provided for
under the Plan.

The holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims in TWC (Class 3D
will receive their Pro Rata Share of all remaining distributions
under the Plan after all Allowed Claims in Articles 2.1, 2.2, 2.3,
2.4, and 4.2 are paid in full or otherwise treated as provided for
under the Plan.

DCD is a limited liability company formed under Maryland law for
the purpose of purchasing land surrounding Deep Creek Lake and
Wisp Resort.  RI is a corporation formed under Maryland law for
the purpose of operating the Wisp Resort's activities, including

The Debtors' most critical problem began in connection with the
Lodestone project.  Following a highly successful 2006, WRD
entered into the BB&T Loan with BB&T.  Because of an alleged
default under the BB&T loan modification, on July 19, 2011, BB&T
obtained a confessed judgment in the Circuit Court for Garrett
County, Maryland, Case No. 11-C-11-12151 against the Debtors in an

Corp. to build the golf course community.  D.C. Development
disclosed $91,155,814 in assets and $46,141,245 in liabilities as
of the Chapter 11 filing.

The Debtors engaged James A. Vidmar, Esq. at Logan, Yumkas, Vidmar
& Sweeney LLC as counsel and tapped Invotex Group as financial
restructuring consultant. SSG Capital Advisors, LLC, serves as
exclusive investment banker to the Debtors.  The Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditors has tapped Cole, Schotz, Meisel,

Carolina approved on Nov. 1, 2013, the sale of substantially all
of the assets of DesignLine Corp. to Wonderland Investment Group,
Inc., whose bid of $1.6 million for the assets prevailed over six
other qualified bidders at the auction on Oct. 28, 2013.

The sale does not include the Debtors' assumption and assignment
of any executory contracts or leases.  However, as set forth in
the APA, the Debtors will discuss with the Buyer the Buyers'
future desire to assume or reject any contracts that the Buyer
determines it would like to assume.

The next highest bidders for the Assets were (i) Great American
Global Partners, LLC, which bid $1,125,000 for the Debtors'
equipment, inventory and office equipment and furniture, including
inventory in transit, and (ii) the Cyrus Entities which credit bid
$475,000 of its $1.5 million post-petition financing for the

Charlotte, North Carolina. DesignLine Corporation is no longer
affiliated with the DesignLine operations in New Zealand, which
was placed in liquidation in 2011.

DesignLine Corporation and DesignLine USA LLC originally sought
Chapter 11 protection with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware (Lead Case Nos. 13-12089 and 13-12090), on
Aug. 15, 2013. Katie Goodman signed the petitions as chief
restructuring officer. The Debtors estimated assets and debts of
at least $10 million. On Sept. 5, 2013, the case was transferred
to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North
Carolina (Case Nos. 13-31943 and 13-31944).

Mark D. Collins, Esq., and Michael Joseph Merchant, Esq., at
Richards, Layton & Finger, P.A.; and Terri L. Gardner, Esq., at
Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough, LLP, serve as the Debtors'

DESIGNLINE CORP: Committee Gets Chapter 11 Trustee
--------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North
Carolina has approved the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors of DesignLine Corp.'s motion for the appointment of a
Chapter 11 trustee to administer the bankruptcy cases.

Pursuant to the order, Elaine T. Rudisill is appointed the
Chapter 11 trustee of the Debtors, in accordance with the terms
set forth on the record at the hearing, with all rights, duties,
and responsibilities as set forth in 11 U.S.C. Section 1106.  The
Court further ordered the Trustee to obtain a bond in an amount to
be determined after consultation with the United States Bankruptcy
Administrator.

In its motion for the appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee, the
Committee said that the sale of the Debtors' assets to Wonderland
Investment Group, Inc., which submitted the highest and best bid
of $1.6 million for substantially all of the Debtors' assets,
failed to satisfy the outstanding obligations owed to the Debtors'
debtor-in-possession lender or to provide any benefit to the
Debtors' unsecured creditors.

The Committee related that during the course of its ongoing
investigation of the Debtors' affairs, it had come to believe that
there are valuable causes of action belonging to the bankruptcy
estates, and that the appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee would
best preserve these causes of action for the benefit of unsecured
creditors which have, to date, not received any benefit from the
administration of the Debtors' estates.

DOGWOOD PROPERTIES: Agreement on Revenue's Plan Objection Okayed
----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Tennessee
entered, on Nov. 5, 2013, a Consent Order resolving the Tennessee
Department of Revenue's objection to Dogwood Properties, G.P.'s
Third Amended Plan of Reorganization.

The Court ordered that:

   1. The terms of the Consent Order supersede any contrary terms
contained in the Plan, whether proposed, confirmed, or amended;

   2. Debtor's Plan will be amended to provide for Revenue's
$8,211.99 claim to be paid in full via regular cash installments
over a period not to exceed 5 years from the date of the order for
relief with interest at an annual rate of 7.25%;

   3. Upon confirmation, the automatic stay is terminated, and any
default in payment to Revenue will authorize Revenue to pursue
further collection of the total outstanding balance owed by Debtor
without further order of the Court.

   4. The Tennessee Department of Revenue accepts the Plan as
modified herein.

As reported in the TCR on Nov. 4, 2013, Robert E. Cooper, Jr., the
Tennessee Attorney General, on behalf of the Tennessee Department
of Revenue, objects to confirmation of Dogwood Properties, G.P.'s
Third Amended Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization, citing:

   1. The Tennessee Department of Revenue has a claim in the
amount of $8,211.99 for unpaid Business County, Business City, and
Franchise and Excise taxes.  This claim is entitled to priority
treatment pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 507(a)(8).

   2. In Chapter 11s, the total value of tax claims are to be
repaid in full via regular cash installments over a period not to
exceed 5 years from the date of the order for relief. 11 U.S.C.
Section 1129(a)(9)(C).

   3. To enable tax creditors to receive the total present value
of their claims, the applicable nonbankruptcy law interest rate
applies. 11 U.S.C. Section 511(a).

   4. The interest rate in effect at the time the bankruptcy
petition was filed was 7.25%. Tenn. Code Ann. Section 67-1-801;
http://www.tennessee.gov/revenue/library/interestrate.shtml

   5. The proposed Plan does not comply with 11 U.S.C. Section
1129(a)(9)(C) because it (1) fails to provide for regular
payments, and (2) fails to provide for a 7.25% interest rate.

                  Third Amended Chapter 11 Plan

The Debtor filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of Tennessee on Sept. 20, 2013, a Third Amended Plan of
Reorganization.

The Plan will be carried out and funded by future rental income
generated by the Debtor.

Under the Plan:

   * Unsecured priority claims (Class 2) will be paid in full
within 60 months following the Petition Date of Feb. 16, 2013.

   * Holders of general unsecured claims (Class 23) will recover
100% in 360 equal monthly installments beginning on or before 90
days after the Effective Date of the Plan without interest.

   * The existing equity interest in the Debtor (Class 24) will be
retained.

of revenues for the year ended July 31, 2013, as compared with a
net loss of $4.57 million on $7.16 million of revenues during the
prior year.  As of July 31, 2013, the Company had $26.27 million
in total assets, $16.91 million in total liabilities and

DYNAVOX INC: Incurs $9.5 Million Net Loss in Fiscal 2013
--------------------------------------------------------
DynaVox Inc. filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its annual report on Form 10-K disclosing a net loss
attributable to the Company of $9.53 million on $64.95 million of
net sales for the year ended June 28, 2013, as compared with a net
loss attributable to the Company of $18.45 million on $97.31
million of net sales for the year ended June 29, 2012.

The Company's balance sheet at June 28, 2013, showed
$34.94 million in total assets, $27.17 million in total
liabilities, and $7.76 million in total equity.

Deloitte & Touche LLP, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, issued a
"going concern" qualification on the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended June 28, 2013.  The independent
auditors noted that the Corporation's default under the 2008
Credit Facility and the continuing decline in revenue, earnings,
and cash flows from historical levels raise substantial doubt
about its ability to continue as a going concern.

                        Bankruptcy Warning

"All obligations under the 2008 Credit Facility are
unconditionally guaranteed by the immediate holding Company parent
of DynaVox Systems LLC and each of DynaVox Systems LLC's existing
and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries.  The 2008 Credit
Facility and the related guarantees are secured by substantially
all of DynaVox Systems LLC's present and future assets and all
present and future assets of each guarantor on a first lien basis.
In the event of an acceleration of our obligations and our failure
to pay the amount that would then become due, the holders of the
2008 Credit Facility could seek to foreclose on our assets, as a
result of which we would likely need to seek protection under the
provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.  In that event, we could
seek to reorganize our business or attempt to sell our
business/assets as a going concern.  The Company could also be
forced into a chapter 7 liquidation, under which a chapter 7
trustee could be required to liquidate our assets.  In any of
these events, whether the stockholders receive any value for their
shares is highly uncertain.  If we needed to liquidate our assets,
we might realize significantly less from them than the value that
could be obtained in a transaction outside of a bankruptcy
proceeding.  The funds resulting from the liquidation of our
assets would be used first to pay off the debt owed to secured and
unsecured creditors, including the lenders under the 2008 Credit
Facility, before any funds would be available to pay our
stockholders.  If we are required to liquidate under the federal
bankruptcy laws, it is unlikely that stockholders would receive
any value for their shares," the Company said in the Annual
Report.

DUNLAP OIL: Dec. 11 Hearing on Bid to Terminate Cash Access
-----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court will convene a hearing on Dec. 11, 2013,
at 1:45 p.m., to consider Pineda Grantor Trust II's motion for:

   1. immediate stay relief and termination of Dunlap Oil Company,
      Inc., and Quail Hollow Inn, LLC's authority to use cash
      collateral; and

   2. alternative motion to convert the Chapter 11 case to one
      under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Nov. 18, 2013,
Pineda Grantor asked the Court to enter an order immediately
terminating the automatic stay with respect to all of Pineda's
liens on Dunlap Oil Company, Inc., and Quail Hollow Inn, LLC's
property, both real and personal so that Pineda may obtain the
appointment of a receiver and take such other actions as are
necessary to protect its security interest.

Pineda also asked the Court to terminate the Debtors' continuing
authority to use cash collateral, citing that the Debtors have
failed to meet the burden of proving that the creditor's interest
is adequately protected.

Alternatively, Pineda asks the Bankruptcy Court to convert the
Debtors' cases to one under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Pineda explained: "QHI's undisclosed, unauthorized transfer of at
least $177,000 of Pineda's cash collateral [to a 'related party'
-- presumably Dunlap Oil Company] constitutes an extraordinary
violation of the cash collateral orders entered by this Court and
its duties as a debtor-in-possession.  It is also likely avoidable
as a fraudulent transfer and/or an unauthorized post-petition
transfer.  Whether or not the funds have been returned, the fact
that the Debtors' management transferred them in the first place
demonstrates their inability and untrustworthiness to continue
managing this estate and their creditors' cash collateral.

"Pineda's interest in its remaining collateral is not adequately
protected.

". . . . the operating reports filed by the Debtors since the
close of that hearing [on Pineda's motions for stay relief stay
and on confirmation of the Debtors' Plan] firmly establish that
reorganization is impossible, and that creditors will only be
harmed by the Debtors' continuing management of their business.
There is cause for immediate stay relief under the circumstances
of this case.

"Stay relief is also appropriate under 11 U.S.C. Section 62(d)(2),
as Debtors agree there is no equity in the properties securing
Pineda's claim, and the Debtors have failed to meet their burden
of proving those properties are necessary for an effective
reorganization."

ELBIT IMAGING: Dutch Unit Submits Restructuring Plan
----------------------------------------------------
Elbit Imaging Ltd.'s subsidiary, Plaza Centers N.V., has filed for
reorganization proceedings with the District Court of Amsterdam in
the Netherlands and submitted a restructuring plan to the Court.
Pursuant to Dutch reorganization proceedings, the Court appoints
an administrator to manage the affairs of Plaza together with
existing management; ordinary unsecured creditors of Plaza become
subject to a stay and Plaza has the ability to restructure its
debts during the moratorium with majority consent of its
creditors.  Throughout the restructuring process Plaza intends to
continue its business activities as normal.

Plaza announced that the Court has granted its application for
preliminary suspension of payment proceedings.  The Court has
appointed an administrator and a supervisory judge.  In its
announcement, Plaza stated that throughout the restructuring
process, it intends to continue its business activities as normal,
and that its team will manage its affairs alongside the
administrator.

Plaza noted further, that in order to resolve its liquidity
situation, it has filed with the Court a restructuring plan
proposed to its creditors.  This restructuring plan proposes a
deferral of the obligations of Plaza for a period of three to four
years, or shorter if cash flow permits, without requiring the
bondholders to take a loss on the par value of their investments.
During the restructuring process Plaza's creditors are subject to
a moratorium.  In addition, Plaza noted that it will approach its
creditors in the coming weeks to seek approval for the
restructuring plan, which, it believes, can be implemented during
the Court supervised process with majority consent.  According to
Plaza announcement, the Court has determined that Plaza's
creditors meeting for the purpose of voting on the plan will take
place on April 17, 2014, at the court in Amsterdam and that
creditors can file their claims for voting purposes with the
administrator before April 3, 2014.

Plaza stated that the reorganization proceedings and the
subsequent implementation of the restructuring plan will provide
it with the ability to resolve its immediate liquidity situation
in order to protect its continuity and preserve value for its
stakeholders and creditors.

Plaza stated that it believes, that notwithstanding its immediate
challenges, it continues to have a strong balance sheet, with a
positive current net asset value, and owns assets and development
opportunities that offer the potential to deliver positive returns
over the medium to long term.  Accordingly, Plaza believes that,
on a going concern basis, Plaza retains significant value for its
stakeholders and will be able to repay its creditors in full.
Plaza stated further, that by contrast, its board is certain that
a forced liquidation would cause shareholders and creditors to
incur significant losses.

Plaza expects that the restructuring process will be completed
within a period of six months.  Upon implementation of the plan,
Plaza is confident it will be able to repay its creditors in full
and return to generating significant value for its stakeholders,
securing its viability for the future.

For further information on the current situation, the content of
the restructuring plan and the further process, visit Plaza's Web
site http://www.plazacenters.com/index.php?p=debt_restructuring

Plaza expects that the trading of its securities might be
suspended for a limited period.

                        About Elbit Imaging

Tel-Aviv, Israel-based Elbit Imaging Ltd. (TASE, NASDAQ: EMITF)
hold investments in real estate and medical companies.  The
Company, through its subsidiaries, also develops shopping and
entertainment centers in Central Europe and invests in and manages
hotels.

Elbit Imaging disclosed a loss of NIS455.50 million on NIS671.08
million of total revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012, as
compared with a loss of NIS247.02 million on NIS586.90 million of
total revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2011.

Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., in Tel-Aviv, Israel, expressed
substantial doubt about Elbit Imaging's ability to continue as a
going concern following the financial results for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2012.

The Certified Public Accountants noted that in the period
commencing Feb. 1, 2013, through Feb. 1, 2014, the Company is to
repay its debenture holders NIS 599 million (principal and
interest).  "Said amount includes NIS 82 million originally
payable on Feb. 21, 2013, that its repayment was suspended
following a resolution of the Company's Board of Directors.  The
Company's Board also resolved to suspend any interest payments
relating to all the Company's debentures.  In addition, as of
Dec. 31, 2012, the Company failed to comply with certain financial
covenants relating to bank loans in the total amount as of such
date of NIS 290 million.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had NIS5.80 billion in total
assets, NIS5.19 billion in total liabilities and NIS613.57 million
in shareholders' equity.

Since February 2013, Elbit has intensively endeavoured to come to
an arrangement with its creditors.  Elbit has said it has been
hanging by a thread for more than five months.  It has encountered
cash flow difficulties and this burdens its day to day activities,
and it certainly cannot make the necessary investments to improve
its assets. In light of the arrangement proceedings, and according
to the demands of most of the bondholders, as well as an agreement
that was signed on March 19, 2013, between Elbit and the Trustees
of six out of eight series of bonds, Elbit is prohibited, inter
alia, from paying off its debts to the financial creditors -- and
as a result a petition to liquidate Elbit was filed, and Bank
Hapoalim has declared its debts immediately payable, threatening
to realize pledges that were given to the Bank on material assets
of the Company -- and Elbit undertook not to sell material assets
of the Company and not to perform any transaction that is not
during its ordinary course of business without giving an advance
notice to the trustees.

Accountant Rony Elroy has been appointed as expert for examining
the debt arrangement in the Company.

In July 2013, Elbit Imaging's controlling shareholders, Europe-
Israel MMS Ltd. and Mr. Mordechay Zisser, notified the Company
that the Tel Aviv District Court has appointed Adv. Giroa Erdinast
as a receiver with regards to the ordinary shares of the Company
held by Europe Israel securing Europe Israel's obligations under
its loan agreement with Bank Hapoalim B.M.  The judgment stated
that the Receiver is not authorized to sell the Company's shares
at this stage.  Following a request of Europe-Israel, the Court
also delayed any action to be taken with regards to the sale of
those shares for a period of 60 days.  Europe Israel and Mr.
Zisser have also notified the Company that they utterly reject the
Bank's claims and intend to appeal the Court's ruling.


ELCOM HOTEL: Deal Pegs Residential Association's Claim at $5MM
--------------------------------------------------------------
Collins Ave. Residential Condominium Association, Inc., notified
the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida
that as a result of the communications between Elcom Hotel & Spa,
LLC, and Elcom Condominium, LLC, and Residential Association,
reached a stipulation for the purposes of claims estimation only.

The parties have agreed that the Residential Association's proof
of claim will be deemed to be $5 million for plan voting purposes.

In this relation, the hearing scheduled for the Residential
Association's motion to estimate claim will not be held, and the
issue with respect to the estimation of the Residential
Association's proof of claim is now moot.

                        About Elcom Hotel

Elcom Hotel & Spa LLC and Elcom Condominium LLC sought Chapter 11
protection (Bankr. S.D. Fla. Case Nos. 13-10029 and 13-10031) on
Jan. 2, 2013, with plans to sell their hotel and condominium
property.

Elcom Condominium owns nine of the hotel condominium units at the
One Bal Harbor Resort & Spa.  The resort is located on five acres
of land in Bal Harbor, Florida.  The building and improvements
consist of 185 luxury residential condominium units and 124 hotel
condominium units.  Elcom Hotel owns the hotel lot.

Elcom Hotel disclosed $10,378,304 in assets and $20,010,226 in
liabilities as of the Chapter 11 filing.  The Debtor owes OBH
Funding, LLC, $1.8 million on a mortgage and F9 Properties, LLC,
formerly known as ANO, LLC, $9 million on a mezzanine loan secured
by a lien on the ownership interests in the project's owner.  OBH
Funding and ANO are owned by Thomas D. Sullivan, the manager of
the Debtors.

Corali Lopexz-Castro, Esq., of Kozyak Tropin & Throckmorton, P.A.,
represent the Debtors as bankruptcy counsel.  Duane Morris LLP is
the special litigation, real estate, and hospitality counsel.
Algon Capital, LLC, d/b/a Algon Group's Troy Taylor is the
Debtors' chief restructuring officer.  Barry E. Mukamal and
Marcum, LLP serve as accountants and financial advisors.  The
Barthet Firm is the special litigation collections counsel.

Elcom Hotel & Spa, LLC, and Elcom Condominium, LLC, late last week
submitted a revised disclosure statement filed in conjunction with
its proposed liquidating plan. The revised disclosure statement
indicates that unsecured creditors are still divided into two
classes under the Plan.  The Plan contemplates that holders of
general unsecured claims (expected to total $14 million to $79.1
million) will have a recovery of 0% to 18%, which will be funded
from the pro rata distribution of "net free cash" and proceeds of
causes of action and remaining assets.  Holders of general
unsecured vendor claims (estimated at $500,000 to $971,000) --
those vendors who have unsecured claims who agree to continue do
business with the Debtors -- will have a recovery of 50%, which
will be funded from the 50% distribution from "net free cash."


EXCEL MARITIME: Cash Collateral Use Extended Until February 2014
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Robert D. Drain of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York signed off on a stipulation and
consent order authorizing Excel Maritime Carriers, Ltd., et al.'s
continued use of cash collateral until Feb. 14, 2014, subject to
earlier termination.

The Court previously entered a final order that authorized the
Debtors' use of cash collateral until Nov. 29, 2013, unless
extended by further order.

The stipulation was entered among the Debtors, Wilmington Trust
(London), Ltd., as Administrative Agent, under the Debtors' Senior
Secured Credit Facility, and the steering committee of lenders
under the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

As adequate protection from any diminution in value of the
lender's collateral, the Debtors will grant the lender replacement
lien on prepetition collateral, subject to carve out on certain
expenses.

As additional adequate protection, the Debtors will pay to the
Agent an amount equal to the interest payment calculated at the
contractual non-default rate provided in the Syndicate Credit
Facility as and when those payments would be due under the
Syndicate Credit Facility; provided, however, the Agent and the
Lenders reserve the right to seek to have such payments calculated
at the contractual default rate provided in the Syndicate Credit
Facility.

The Agent on behalf of and at the direction of the Lenders,
subject to the terms of the Syndicate Credit Facility, will have
the right to credit bid to the extent provided under section
363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code, all of the Lenders' allowed secured
claims in connection with a sale of the Debtors' assets securing
such claims under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or a sale of
such assets under a plan of reorganization.

The company blamed financial problems on low charter rates.

The balance sheet for December 2011 had assets of $2.72 billion
and liabilities totaling $1.16 billion.  Excel owes $771 million
to secured lenders with liens on almost all assets.  There is $150
million owing on 1.875 percent unsecured convertible notes.

Excel Maritime filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case
No. 13-23060) on July 1, 2013, in New York after signing an
agreement where secured lenders owed $771 million support a
reorganization plan filed alongside the petition.  The Debtor
disclosed $35,642,525 in assets and $1,034,314,519 in liabilities
as of the Chapter 11 filing.

Committee's investment banker.

The Debtors' Chapter 11 plan filed on July 15, 2013, proposes to
implement a reorganization worked out before a July 1 bankruptcy
filing.  The plan will give ownership to secured lenders owed $771
million, although the lenders will allow current owner Gabriel
Panayotides to keep control, at least initially.  Unsecured
creditors with claims totaling $163 million will receive a $5
million, eight percent note for a predicted recovery of 3 percent.
Holders of $150 million in unsecured convertible notes make up the
bulk of the unsecured-claim pool.


EXCEL MARITIME: Plan Solicitation Period Extended Until Feb. 17
---------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York
extended until Feb. 17, 2014, Excel Maritime Carriers Ltd., et
al.'s exclusive period to solicit acceptances of a plan of
reorganization.

The Debtors filed a bankruptcy-exit plan on July 1, 2013, together
with their chapter 11 petitions.  Accordingly, the Debtors'
exclusive period expires on Dec. 30, 2013.

As the Debtors recently advised the Court, however, the Debtors,
the Creditors' Committee, the Debtors' prepetition secured
lenders, and Ivory Shipping, Inc. together have reached agreement
on the terms of a revised, consensual plan.  The Debtors
anticipated filing a revised plan and disclosure statement by
Nov. 26, 2013, and the Court has scheduled a hearing to consider
approval of the revised disclosure statement on Dec. 6 and
reserved Jan. 27, 2014, as the date to consider confirmation of
the revised plan.

                         Revamped Plan

Citing a report by Peg Brickley, writing for Daily Bankruptcy
Review, the Troubled Company Reporter on Nov. 28, 2013, said the
leading creditors of Excel Maritime Carriers have agreed to
overhaul the Chapter 11 plan that will see the shipping company
out of bankruptcy, boosting the value going to bondholders and
heading off a potentially disastrous court fight.  The shipping
company said the revamped Chapter 11 bankruptcy exit plan sets out
terms of a revised restructuring strategy which will end the
discord that has troubled Excel's attempt to resolve an unworkable
load of debt, company attorneys said in a filing with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Finjan Holdings, Inc., announced a strategic investment in an
Israel-based venture capital fund that will target early-stage
technology companies on the leading edge of cybersecurity
innovation.  Financial terms of the transaction were not
disclosed.

Since its inception, Finjan has raised over $65 million in venture
financing for R&D investment in the Company's software security
legacy operating business.  Having already been awarded a diverse
patent portfolio in endpoint, web and network security
technologies, Finjan understands the unique challenges start-up
companies in the cybersecurity space are facing.  This strategic
investment in the Fund underscores the Company's commitment to
continued investments in the next wave of innovative security
technology development.

"Driven by the increasing frequency and complexity of cyber-
attacks worldwide, we recognize the inherent growth potential of
investing in emerging companies that are also focused on
enhancing, creating and introducing new online security
technologies," commented Finjan's President, Phil Hartstein.  "As
one of the first companies to develop and patent technology that
proactively detects online threats, this strategic investment
underscores our long-standing commitment to fostering innovation
and continued investment in the research and development of next-
generation cybersecurity technologies.  We are thrilled to invest
in the new fund as one of the selected strategic investors
alongside Fortune 500 technology firms."

By investing in the Fund as part of its overall strategy, Finjan
will gain access to innovative new technologies from the earliest
stage of seed development through the government-backed incubator
program which will be managed by the Fund, as well as later stage
investments in more developed technologies.  The Fund is managed
by a seasoned venture capital franchise with more than twenty
years' experience and consistently ranked among the leading
venture capital funds in Israel.

The Fund's technology R&D investments will focus on many areas
central to cybersecurity vulnerabilities today including, Zero Day

FISKER AUTOMOTIVE: To Limit Trading to Preserve NOLs
----------------------------------------------------
Fisker Automotive Holdings, Inc., et al., ask the bankruptcy court
for approval to implement notification and hearing procedures
regarding certain transfers of Fisker Automotive common stock,
preferred stock, or any beneficial ownership therein.

As of Dec. 31, 2012, the Debtors have net operating losses of $800
million.  The NOLs may be of significant value to the Debtors and
their estates because the Debtors can carry forward their NOLs to
offset their future taxable income for up to 20 taxable years,
thereby reducing their future aggregate tax obligations.  In
addition, the Debtors may utilize their NOLs to offset any taxable
income generated by transactions completed during the chapter 11
cases.

Under I.R.C. section 382, certain transfers of the Equity
Securities prior to the consummation of the Debtors' chapter 11
plan could cause the termination, or limit the use, of the NOLs.

To ensure preservation of their NOLs, the Debtors propose these
procedures:

   * Any "substantial shareholder" -- entity that has direct
     or indirect beneficial ownership of at least 4.5% of the
     equity securities -- must serve and file a declaration.

   * Prior to effectuating any transfer of the equity securities
     that would result in another entity becoming a substantial
     equityholder, the parties to such transaction must serve and
     file a notice of the intended stock transaction.

   * The Debtors have 30 calendar days after receipt of the stock
     transaction notice to object to the proposed transaction.

   * If the Debtors do not object, the proposed transaction may
     proceed.

   * Any transfer of the Equity Securities in violation of the
     procedures will be null and void ab initio.

A "substantial shareholder" is any entity or individual that has
beneficial ownership of (a) at least 3,300,000 shares of common
stock, (b) at least 11,600,000 shares of Series DD-X Preferred
Stock, (c) at least 15,500,000 shares of Series AA-1 Preferred
Stock, (d) at least 11,900,000 shares of Series BB-1 Preferred
Stock, (e) at least 4,000,000 shares of Series CC-1 Preferred
Stock, (f) at least 1,300,000 shares of Series D-1 Preferred
Stock, (g) at least 66,400,000 shares of Series DD-1 Preferred
Stock, (h) at least 106,300,000 shares of Series E-1 Preferred
Stock, or (i) any combination of Equity Securities equivalent to
at least 4.5% of the total value of the equity securities.

Based on the Debtors' records, there are approximately 26
substantial shareholders.

and $100 to $158 per hour for programming and customization.

Miami.  The Company disclosed debt of $138.3 million and assets of
$180 million in its petition.

third party.  Jefferies LLC was hired to determine that amount,
about $26.8 million, and valued the company at more than $180
million.

million in total liabilities and $9.14 million in total
shareholders' equity.

BDO USA, LLP, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended Dec. 31, 2012.

"The Corporation's subsidiary bank ("Bank") is significantly
undercapitalized under regulatory capital guidelines and, during
2009, the Bank entered into a consent order regulatory enforcement
action ("consent order") with its primary regulator, the Office of
the Comptroller of the Currency.  The consent order requires
management to take a number of actions, including, among other
things, increasing and maintaining its capital levels at amounts
in excess of the Bank's current capital levels.  As discussed in
Note 20, the Bank has not yet met the higher capital requirements
and is therefore not in compliance with the consent order.  As a
result of the uncertain potential impact of future regulatory
actions, circumstances exist that raise substantial doubt about
the Corporation's ability to continue as a going concern."


FREESEAS INC: Nauta, Not Panagiotopoulos, Elected to Board
----------------------------------------------------------
FreeSeas Inc. amended its press release dated Nov. 18, 2013,
solely to correct an error which inadvertently indicated that Mr.
Dimitrios Panagiotopoulos had been reelected to the Board of
Directors of the Company, when actually Mr. Focko Nauta was
reelected to the Board of Directors of the Company, together with
Keith Bloomfield.

                       About FreeSeas Inc.

Headquartered in Athens, Greece, FreeSeas Inc., formerly known as
Adventure Holdings S.A., was incorporated in the Marshall Islands
on April 23, 2004, for the purpose of being the ultimate holding

vessels is performed by Free Bulkers S.A., a Marshall Islands
company that is controlled by Ion G. Varouxakis, the Company's
Chairman, President and CEO, and one of the Company's principal
shareholders.

The Company's fleet consists of six Handysize vessels and one
Handymax vessel that carry a variety of drybulk commodities,
including iron ore, grain and coal, which are referred to as
"major bulks," as well as bauxite, phosphate, fertilizers, steel
products, cement, sugar and rice, or "minor bulks."  As of
Oct. 12, 2012, the aggregate dwt of the Company's operational
fleet is approximately 197,200 dwt and the average age of its

showed US$114.35 million in total assets, $106.55 million in

RBSM LLP, in New York, issued a "going concern" qualification on
the consolidated financial statements for the year ended Dec. 31,
2012.  The independent auditors noted that the Company has
incurred recurring operating losses and has a working capital
deficiency.  In addition, the Company has failed to meet
scheduled payment obligations under its loan facilities and has
not complied with certain covenants included in its loan
agreements.  It has also failed to make required payments to
Deutsche Bank Nederland as agreed to in its Sept. 7, 2012,
amended and restated facility agreement and received notices of
default from First Business Bank.  Furthermore, the vast majority
of the Company's assets are considered to be highly illiquid and
if the Company were forced to liquidate, the amount realized by
the Company could be substantially lower that the carrying value
of these assets.  These conditions, among others, raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.


FUSION TELECOMMUNICATIONS: Amends BroadvoxGo! Asset Purchase Pact
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fusion Telecommunications International, Inc., and its recently-
formed indirect subsidiary, Fusion Broadvox Acquisition Corp.,
entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement to acquire
specified assets owned by BroadvoxGo! LLC and Cypress
Communications, LLC, and used in the operation of the cloud
communications services segment of Sellers' business.  The Company
also agreed to assume substantially all of the on-going
liabilities of the Acquired Business incurred in the ordinary
course of business.

The Agreement was amended on Nov. 15, 2013, primarily to (i)
increase the amount of the good faith deposit from $200,000 to
$300,000, and provide that the deposit be delivered from escrow to
the possession and control of Sellers for refund to the Company
only under certain limited circumstances; and (ii) change the
Outside Closing Date, as defined in the Agreement, from Nov. 15,
2013, to Dec. 16, 2013.  The Company also agreed with Sellers that
certain of the conditions precedent to closing contained in the
Agreement, including the audit of the financial books and records
of the Acquired Business and demonstration that the Acquired
Business achieve annualized earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization of not less than $5 million based on
the three month period from July through September 2013, have been
satisfied.  In addition, the Company has agreed with Sellers that
since the EBITDA of the Acquired Business for the three-month
period exceeded $6 million there will be no downward adjustment of
the purchase price.

Consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement
remains subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions
precedent, including, but not limited to, receipt of any
applicable regulatory approvals and certain third-party consents,
receipt by the Company of sufficient funding to pay the purchase
price and provide for reasonable post-acquisition working capital
requirements, and other customary conditions of closing.
Consummation also remains subject to the negotiation of a series
of mutually acceptable agreements related to post-closing matters
such as (a) certain transition services to be provided to the
Company by Sellers, (b) the shared use of certain equipment and
systems of Sellers on a transition basis and (c) the Company?s use
of certain intellectual property of Sellers on a transition basis.

While the Agreement contemplates that a closing of the sale of the
Acquired Business will take place no later than Dec. 16, 2013, the
conditions precedent to closing are such that there can be no
assurance that the Company will complete its acquisition of the
Acquired Business in that time or at all.

GLASS EARTH: Enters Into Deferred Payment Compromise with Lenders
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Glass Earth Gold Limited on Nov. 29 disclosed that it has filed
its Sept. 30 2013 third quarter Financial Statements and
associated Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") report,
pertaining to that period, with regulatory authorities.

The Company is now focused solely on exploration and development
projects in the Hauraki Region of the North Island of New Zealand.
This area is where its key hard-rock projects of WKP and
Neavesville lie, as well as its Waihi West prospect, which is
adjacent to the Newmont owned and operated Martha gold mine at
Waihi.

In spite of the cost-containment measures taken (ref:News release
Nov 6)(ref:2013), there has been some strain in meeting the
Company's financial obligations in this period.  As a result, it
has been necessary to reach a deferred payment compromise with its
subsidiary's placer mining creditors ($620,000) and another
accommodation with Newmont Mining on cash calls due in respect of
the Hauraki Joint Venture ($588,000).

Hauraki Joint Venture (includes WKP) - Prospective change in
management

Since Glass Earth Gold decided to focus on the WKP project,
management has explored several avenues to boost exploration and
give more momentum to the project.  Consequently, negotiations are
well advanced with Newmont Mining (65%) for Glass Earth (New
Zealand) Limited (35%) to assume management of the Hauraki Joint
Venture and sole fund exploration activities in order to increase
its equity in the JV.

Outstanding cash calls of $588,000, due to Newmont by GENZL as at
30 September 2013, would form part of the overall funding for the
2014 & 2015 exploration expenditures.  Newmont has reserved its
position in respect of the unpaid cash calls by issuing a Default
Notice under the terms of the Hauraki Joint Venture Agreement
("JVA") on 17 October 2013.

Neavesville Prospect (GENZL was 50% - now 100%)

As from 6 November 2013, the Company has regained 100% ownership
of the Neavesville prospect opportunity.  Negotiations are
underway with Eurasian Minerals to amend the terms of the Option
Agreement with them in order to defer a looming Option payment
deadline of December 31, 2013.

Corporate Refinancing

The Company, in common with many junior gold explorers, needs to
refinance. Management and the Board are of the opinion that the
above-mentioned change in management for WKP and 100% ownership
opportunity for Neavesville will add value to the Company's
profile, thus enhancing its potential to attract funding to
continue hard-rock activities and cover General & Administration
expenses.

                           FINANCIALS

Operational Activities

The Company's corporate and exploration activities for the quarter
are summarized in the attached Quarterly Overview.  The Company's
cash position as at September 30, 2013 was $423,000 with trade
payables of $1,368,000, of which $1,208,000 are discussed above.

The Company sold its placer mining operations effective end of
August and incurred a net mining loss for the three months ending
September 30, 2013 of $482,000.

                     About Glass Earth Gold

Glass Earth Gold is an exploration company focused on unveiling
the high-grade potential of the Wharekirauponga (WKP) and

The Troubled Company Reporter said on April 11, 2013, that
Moody's Investors Service upgraded Hercules Offshore, Inc.'s
Corporate Family Rating to B2 from B3.  Hercules' B2 CFR is
supported by its improved cash flow and lower leverage on the back
of increased drilling activity and higher day-rates in the Gulf of
Mexico (GOM)

As reported by the TCR on Nov. 6, 2012, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services raised its corporate credit rating on Houston-based
Hercules Offshore Inc. to 'B' from 'B-'.  "The upgrade reflects
the improving market conditions in the Gulf of Mexico and our
expectations that Hercules' fleet will continue to benefit," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Stephen Scovotti.


HRK HOLDINGS: Plan Filing Deadline Extended to Dec. 27
------------------------------------------------------
Judge K. Rodney May entered an order extending until Dec. 27,
2013, the deadline for HRK Holdings LLC and HRK Industries LLC to
file a Chapter 11 plan and disclosure statement.  The judge also
extended through and including Feb. 28, 2014, the Debtors'
exclusive period to solicit acceptances of their Chapter 11 plan.

The Debtors had sought a Jan. 27, 2014 extension of the plan
filing deadline and a March 30, 2014 extension of the solicitation
period.

At the Nov. 4 hearing, counsel for the Debtors orally amended the
motion to shorten the time period requested for the extension.

The Court, having considered the motion, the oral amendment, the
record, and noting no objection to the relief requested, found it
appropriate to grant the motion.

                      About HRK Holdings

Based in Palmetto, Florida, HRK Holdings LLC owns roughly 675
contiguous acres of real property in Manatee County, Florida.
Roughly 350 acres of the property accommodates a phosphogypsum
stack system, called Gypstaks, a portion of which was used as an
alternate disposal area for the management of dredge materials
pursuant to a contract with Port Manatee and as authorized under
an administrative agreement with the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection.  The remaining acres of usable land are
either leased to various tenants or available for sale.  HRK
Industries holds various contracts and leases associated with the
Debtors' property.

HRK Holdings and HRK Industries LLC filed for Chapter 11
protection (Bankr. M.D. Fla. Case Nos. 12-09868 and 12-09869) on
June 27, 2012.  Judge K. Rodney May oversees the case.  Barbara A.
Hart, Esq., and Scott A. Stichter, Esq., at Stichter, Riedel,
Blain & Prosser, P.A., represents the Debtors.

HRK Holdings disclosed $33,366,529 in assets and $26,092,559
in liabilities in its revised schedules.

According to the Debtors, the bankruptcy filing was necessitated
by the immediate need to sell a portion of the remaining property
to create liquidity for (a) funding the urgent management of the
site-related environmental concerns; the benefit of creditors;
funding a litigation filed by the Debtors; and funding of expenses
related to additional sales of the remaining property.


IDB HOLDING: Obtains NIS65MM Loan Under Reorganization Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
G. Willi-Food International Ltd. on Nov. 29 disclosed that it has
reached an agreement with C.D-B.A Holdings (Designated) (2013)
Ltd. according to which the Company would provide a convertible
loan in the aggregate amount of NIS65 million (approximately
USD18.3 million), convertible at the election of the Company into
shares of IDB Holding Corporation or IDB Development Company Ltd.,
each traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, to be held by C.D-B.A.

IDBH is one of the largest holding companies in Israel and
controls, both directly and indirectly through its holding
companies, in companies involved in a wide range of business
activities in Israel and abroad, such communications, retail, real
estate, finance, insurance and aviation.  IDBH conducts many of
its activities through its holdings in IDBD, its wholly owned
subsidiary.  IDBH and IDBD are currently in debt reorganization
proceedings in Israeli court.

The number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Loan will be
determined based on the ratio between the principal amount of the
Loan and the amount of equity contributed by C.D-B.A in the
context of debt arrangement of IDBH. To the best knowledge of the
Company, C.D-B.A is owned 70% indirectly by Emblaze Ltd., a public
company listed on the London Stock Exchange, and 30% by Mr. Nochi
Dankner and his family members.

C.D-B.A is part of a group of investors that also includes Netz
Group Ltd., Alon Car Garage (1992) Ltd., Mr. Daniel Hosidman and
the Nakash family that financially supports the most recent
reorganization plan between IDBH and its creditors submitted by
IDBH to Israel court under Section 350 of the Israel Companies
Law.  The Loan will be convertible at the election of the Company
into shares of the company (IDBH or IDBD) into which the Investor
Group determines to invest pursuant to the Plan.

The Loan is intended to be used by C.D-B.A to consummate the Plan.
The amount of the Loan will be included with the other funds
deposited in trust to secure the investment of the Investor Group
in IDBH, pursuant to the Plan.

Unless otherwise determined by the Company, the Loan will be due
and payable one year from the date of deposit or six months from
the date of closing set according to the Plan.  The Loan will bear
interest at the rate of 5% annually compounded annually from the
date of deposit until the date of relevant repayment and will be
linked to the CPI as published on November 15, 2013.  In the event
that the Plan is not approved by the court, or if other
preconditions to closing are not satisfied, the Loan will be
repaid and returned to the Company before the original repayment
date including linkage differential and accumulated interest.

The Company may elect to extend the Original Repayment Date for an
additional three years from closing by providing a prior written
notice to C.D-B.A at least 30 days prior to the Original Repayment
Date.  At any time following the Original Repayment Date, the
Company may demand immediate repayment by providing a written
notice to C.D-B.A 60 days in advance.  The Loan will bear late
interest of 1% per month if the Loan is not repaid by the Original
Repayment Date, Early Repayment Date or Final Repayment Date, as
the case may be.

From closing and at the Company's election, the Loan will be
convertible into shares of IDBH or IDBD held by C.D-B.A subject to
satisfaction of the following conditions (in addition to
conditions precedent set forth in the Plan): (i) approval of the
Israel Trust Authority to the joining by the Company to the
Investor Group and to the shareholders agreement and (ii)
satisfaction by the Company of the requirements of the Law of
Concentration, including in a manner that doesn't impose material
limitations on IDBH and/or companies under its control or require
them to take material actions.  To the extent the Company does not
satisfy these conditions, it will be permitted to transfer the
Loan to a third party that satisfy the conditions, who would
convert the Loan on the date of transfer and join the Investor
Group.  The transfer to a third party will be subject to a right
of first refusal to C.D-B.A pursuant to the shareholders
agreement.  In the case of conversion of the Loan, the Loan will
not bear interest or linkage, and the Company will not be entitled
to any payment on account of the Loan.

According to the agreement, on the date of conversion and a
condition of conversion, the Company will join as a party to the
shareholders agreement of the Investors Group relating to their
holdings in IDBH or IDBD, as the case may be.  The shareholders
agreement will address, among others, (i) coordination of voting
at shareholder meetings of IDBH or IDBD, as the case may be (with
limited exceptions), (ii) appointment of directors of IDBH or
IDBD, as the case may be, such that C.D-B.A would be able to
appoint a majority of the directors and other shareholders appoint
the remaining directors; upon conversion of the Loan to shares,
the Company will have the right to recommend the appointment of
one director in IDBH and the companies under its control so long
as the Company continues to hold at least 75% of the shares it
acquires upon conversion of the Loan, (iii) amendment to articles
of association of IDBH and IDBD requiring 80% director vote for
approving the expense line item of the budget and any material
change thereto, (iv) amendment to the articles of association of
IDBH and IDBD requiring 66% director vote to approve related party
transactions under the Israel Companies Law, (v) appointment of
CEO who will be citizen and resident of Israel not related to a
member of the Investor Group, (vi) prohibition on the transfer of
shares for three years from closing (other than permitted
transferees), (vii) permission to encumber shares to recognized
financial institution, (viii) transfer of shares post three year
restriction period (and/or other securities of IDBH or IDBD, as
the case may be) subject to first refusal right of C.D-B.A, (ix)
shareholders other than C.D-B.A granted a tag along right in the
event of a sale by C.D-B.A of securities in IDBH or IDBD, as the
case may be, and (x) permission granted to C.D-B.A to add third
parties who join the investment in IDBH or IDBD, as the case may
be, so long as the director appointment and put rights of the
other investors are not adversely affected.

The agreement further provides that at time of conversion of the
Loan, the Company will have a put option to sell to C.D-B.A all or
part of the shares acquired upon conversion of the Loan in
consideration for a per share price equal to the original
investment amount of the Company per share plus annual interest of
5% per annum compounded annually from closing until conversion of
the Loan.  The put may be exercised beginning 36 months following
the closing until 72 months following the closing.  The put option
is not transferrable to a third party purchaser of the shares
(other than a permitted transferee) and is subject to adjustment
for dividends, bonus shares, rights offereings, share splits and
share combination.  Non-payment of the consideration by C.D-B.A
will bear interest at 0.75% per month, and C.D-B.A in such case
will immediately cease the service of any directors on account of
Mr. Nochi Dankner, Yitzhak Dankner and Emblaze such that the
number of directors on account of the Company and other
shareholders will equal the number of directors on account of C.D-
B.A and its related parties.

The agreement provides that in order to secure the repayment of
the Loan, at closing C.D-B.A will deposit in trust the shares into
which the Loan is covertible and will grant a first priority
security interest in favor of the Company.  In addition, Emblaze
guaranteees the full payment of all C.D-B.A obligations to repay
the Loan and the payment of amounts on account of the put.

Mr. Zwi Williger, the Company's Chairman of the Board of
Directors, stated "We are very excited to become a stakeholder in
one of Israel's most diverse companies.  IDBH's current status has
presented us with an opportunity that has the potential to become
a profitable long-term investment for our Company.  We have
elected to act cautiously, however, by granting a loan on terms we
believe to be favorable, while at the same time obtaining a three
year option to determine whether we wish to become a shareholder
in the IDB group.  Any shareholder with questions regarding the
transaction may contact me at 972-52-357-4066."

total purchase price of $3,673 (an average of $0.31 per share) for
investment purposes.

IZEA, Inc., headquartered in Orlando, Fla., believes it is a world

media publisher to share sponsored content within their social
network.  The Company accomplishes this by operating multiple
marketplaces that include its platforms SocialSpark,
SponsoredTweets and WeReward, as well as its legacy platforms

statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent
auditors noted that the Company has incurred recurring operating
losses and had a negative working capital and an accumulated
deficit at Dec. 31, 2012.  These conditions raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern
without raising sufficient additional financing.

KIDSPEACE CORP: U.S. Trustee Asks Court to Dismiss Cases
--------------------------------------------------------
Roberta A. DeAngelis, the United States trustee for Region 3, asks
the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania
to enter an order dismissing KidPeace Corporation, et al.'s
jointly administered Chapter 11 cases, citing:

   1. On the date the hearing on this motion is scheduled, the
Debtors' cases will have been pending before the Court for seven
months without the filing and/or approval of a disclosure
statement or the filing and/or confirmation of a plan of
reorganization.

   2. The Debtors have also failed to remain current with the
filing of their monthly operating reports.

   3. Upon information and belief, the Debtors have also failed to
remain current with their post-petition financial obligations
including, but not necessarily limited to its secured debt
obligations and the fees due and owing pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
Section 1930(a)(6).

   4. In their Response to the Supplemental and Special Report
filed by the Patient Care Ombudsman the Debtors reference the
strain that the bankruptcy process has placed on the Debtors,
financial and otherwise, as well as the relationship between the
Debtors' management and staff.  The lack of financial reporting
referenced above makes it difficult to ascertain the extent of the
financial strain the Debtors are experiencing, and the impact such
strain may have on the care and treatment of the Debtors' clients
if allowed to continue.

If these cases are dismissed and any quarterly fees remain due and
owing at the time of the hearing on this matter, the United
States trustee requests that the Court enter judgment against the
Debtors in the amount of all accrued fees as of the hearing date.

A hearing on the Motion is scheduled to be held before the
Honorable Richard E. Fehling on Dec. 9, 2013, at 11:00 a.m.
Responses, if any, to the Motion must be filed so as to be
received no later than Dec. 4, 2013.

Orefield, Pennsylvania.  Assets are $86.7 million, and debt on the

that their pension liability is allegedly about $100,000,000 of
which the Debtors currently reflect $83,049,412 on their books.

KidsPeace sought Chapter 11 (i) as a means to implement a
negotiated restructuring of bond debt currently aggregating
approximately $51,310,000 plus accrued interest to a reduced
amount of approximately $24 million in new 30-year bonds with
interest at 7.5 percent, and (ii) to continue on-going
negotiations with the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation in
hopes of reducing the PBGC asserted obligation of $100+ million to
an amount that the Debtors can reasonably expect to satisfy.

The Debtor disclosed $157,930,467 in assets and $168,768,207 in
liabilities as of the Chapter 11 filing.

Since March 2012, MK has been exploring possible affiliation or
acquisition opportunities; however, no offer of an affiliation or
acquisition has been presented to the Debtors.

LDK SOLAR: Signs RMB1.56 Billion Financing Agreement
----------------------------------------------------
LDK Solar Co., Ltd.'s onshore subsidiary, Jiangxi LDK Solar Hi-
Tech Co., Ltd., signed a framework agreement on Nov. 11, 2013,
with a syndicate of 11 commercial banks in China for a credit
facility in the aggregate principal amount of RMB1.56 billion.
The use of proceeds of the credit facility is strictly limited to
financing LDK Solar's onshore operations within Jiangxi Province,
and may not be used to service any existing indebtedness, whether
onshore or offshore.  The facility will terminate on Nov. 10,
2016, and each loan under the facility may not have a maturity
date later than such termination date.  Each draw-down under the
facility will be made in the absolute discretion of the syndicate
and will be subject to additional conditions (including early
repayment) imposed by the syndicate on a draw-specific basis.  The
syndicate has designated a working group to monitor the use of the
funds and controlled bank accounts arrangements will be
implemented.  The facility and any of its outstanding loans are
guaranteed by LDK Solar's onshore subsidiaries, Jiangxi LDK PV
Silicon Technology Co., Ltd., Jiangxi LDK Solar Polysilicon Co.,
Ltd., LDK Solar Hi-Tech (Xinyu) Co., Ltd. and LDK Solar Hi-Tech
(Nanchang) Co., Ltd., and by Peng Xiaofeng and his wife.  The
first drawdown of RMB 200 million was approved and completed on
Nov. 21, 2013.

"We are pleased to enter this financing arrangement with the
banking syndicate in China," stated Sam Tong, President and CEO of
LDK Solar.  "While we are beginning to experience improvements in
our business operations, we believe this discretionary loan
facility will provide LDK Solar with the necessary support to ramp
up our manufacturing operations of polysilicon, wafers, cells and
modules in Jiangxi Province when business circumstances so permit.
When the global solar industry regains strength, we are committed
to taking advantage of new opportunities that emerge."

                          About LDK Solar

LDK Solar Co., Ltd. -- http://www.ldksolar.com-- based in Hi-
Tech Industrial Park, Xinyu City, Jiangxi Province, People's
Republic of China, is a vertically integrated manufacturer of
photovoltaic products, including high-quality and low-cost
polysilicon, solar wafers, cells, modules, systems, power
projects and solutions.

LDK Solar was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on May 1, 2006,
by LDK New Energy, a British Virgin Islands company wholly owned
by Xiaofeng Peng, LDK's founder, chairman and chief executive
officer, to acquire all of the equity interests in Jiangxi LDK
Solar from Suzhou Liouxin Industry Co., Ltd., and Liouxin
Industrial Limited.

LDK Solar Co disclosed a net loss of $1.05 billion on $862.88
million of net sales for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012, as compared
with a net loss of $608.95 million on $2.15 billion of net sales
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2011.  The Company's balance sheet at
June 30, 2013, showed US$4.37 billion in total assets, US$4.79
billion in total liabilities, US$382.84 million in redeemable non-
controlling interests, and a US$794.58 million total deficit.

KPMG, in Hong Kong, China, issued a "going concern" qualification
on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent auditors noted that the Group has
a net working capital deficit and a deficit in total equity as of
Dec. 31, 2012, and is restricted from incurring additional
indebtedness as it has not met a financial covenant ratio as
defined in the indenture governing the RMB-denominated US$-settled
senior notes.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Group's ability to continue as a going concern.


LDK SOLAR: Extends Forbearance with Noteholders Until Dec. 10
-------------------------------------------------------------
LDK Solar Co., Ltd., has entered into a new two-week forbearance
arrangement with holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of its US$-Settled 10 Percent Senior Notes due 2014.  The
new forbearance arrangement, which expires on Dec. 10, 2013,
relates to the interest payment due under the Notes on Aug. 28,
2013.  That interest payment is still unpaid.  It is LDK Solar's
intention to find a consensual solution to its obligations under
the Notes as soon as possible and LDK Solar remains hopeful that
it will be able to achieve that goal.

As reported previously, LDK Solar has engaged Jefferies LLC as a
financial advisor for strategic advice in connection with the
Notes and LDK Solar's other offshore obligations.  Holders of LDK
Solar's offshore debt obligations may contact Augusto King at
aking@Jefferies.com, or Steven Strom at sstrom@Jefferies.com,
Lyndon Norley at lyndon.norley@Jefferies.com, or Richard Klein at

Albrecht at talbrecht@sidley.com, and Timothy Li at

acting as counsel to a group of noteholders, led by Daniel
Anderson (daniel.anderson@ropesgray.com) and Paul Boltz
(paul.boltz@ropesgray.com).  LDK Solar also understands that
Houlihan Lokey has been engaged as financial advisor to that same
group of noteholders; holders of the Notes may contact Brandon
Gale at bgale@hl.com with any questions.

Republic of China, is a vertically integrated manufacturer of
photovoltaic products, including high-quality and low-cost
polysilicon, solar wafers, cells, modules, systems, power

LDK Solar was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on May 1, 2006,
by LDK New Energy, a British Virgin Islands company wholly owned
by Xiaofeng Peng, LDK's founder, chairman and chief executive
officer, to acquire all of the equity interests in Jiangxi LDK
Solar from Suzhou Liouxin Industry Co., Ltd., and Liouxin

LDK Solar Co disclosed a net loss of $1.05 billion on $862.88
million of net sales for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012, as compared

for the year ended Dec. 31, 2011.

KPMG, in Hong Kong, China, issued a "going concern" qualification
on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent auditors noted that the Group has
a net working capital deficit and a deficit in total equity as of
Dec. 31, 2012, and is restricted from incurring additional
indebtedness as it has not met a financial covenant ratio as
defined in the indenture governing the RMB-denominated US$-settled
senior notes.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Group's ability to continue as a going concern.

MICHAELS STORES: Amends Fiscal 2012 Annual Report
-------------------------------------------------
The Audit Committee of Michaels Stores, Inc.'s Board of Directors,
after considering the recommendation of management and discussing
with Ernst & Young LLP, the Company's independent registered
public accounting firm, concluded it was necessary to restate the
Company's previously issued consolidated financial statements for
the fiscal years ended Feb. 2, 2013, and Jan. 28, 2012.  In
connection with the preparation of the Company's quarterly report
on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended Nov. 2, 2013, the
Company determined that it had incorrectly accounted for certain
stock compensation transactions under the Financial Accounting
Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718
Compensation -- Stock Compensation.

Specifically, former participants in the Company's Equity
Incentive Plan and its successor Plan, exercised stock options
upon their termination from the Company, and the Company re-
purchased the immature shares.  Immature shares are defined as
shares held for less than six months following exercise.  The
Company consistently repurchased shares in this manner and
therefore, under accounting rules, established a pattern of
repurchasing immature shares during the third quarter of 2011.
The Company determined all stock options should have been treated
as liability awards in accordance with the rules of ASC 718-10-25-
9.  Under liability accounting, the Company re-measures the fair
value of stock compensation each period and recognizes changes in
fair value as awards vest and until the award is settled.  The
Company originally recognized expense ratably over the vesting
period based on the grant date fair value of the option in
accordance with the fixed method of accounting.  The Company
determined the accounting error was material to fiscal 2011 and
fiscal 2012 financial statements and those required restatement.
The non-cash impact to share-based compensation expense was
$18 million ($11, net of tax) and $32 million ($20, net of tax)
for the fiscal years ended Feb. 2, 2013, and Jan. 28, 2012,
respectively.  As part of the restatement, the Company also
recorded other adjustments related to merchandise inventories and
closed store reserve which were previously determined to be
immaterial to the respective periods.  In total, the adjustments
resulted in a decline of net income by $14 million for fiscal year
ended Feb. 2, 2013, and $19 million for fiscal year ended Jan. 28,
2012.

The Company's restated consolidated statements of comprehensive
income reflect net income of $200 million for fiscal 2012 as
compared with net income of $214 million as reported.

MISSION NEW ENERGY: Enters Into MoU with Benefuel
-------------------------------------------------
Mission NewEnergy Limited has entered into a Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) with Benefuel Inc., a U.S. based technology
provider who have developed and successfully validated a ground
breaking and patented technology process, that will allow
Mission's 250,000 tpa biodiesel refinery to be commissioned and
operated using substantially lower cost feedstocks.

In the group CEO's Report of the Annual Report released on
Oct. 28, 2013, the Company stated that the thrust of the company
going forward is to re-configure its biodiesel refinery to take
advantage of improved economics based on new technology and
capitalize on currently improved market conditions and to continue
to seek maximum value from its legacy business activities through
the arbitration proceedings in Malaysia and Indonesia.

The MoU with Benefuel Inc. provides for the Parties to explore the
possibility of entering into certain transactions including but
not limited to licensing agreements, asset sale or a business
combination transaction for the Malaysian refinery asset.

The Parties have also identified certain potential partners to
approach relating to but not limited to joint venturing, funding,
operating, and feedstock supply.

More particularly, the parties are looking at opportunities to set
up a joint venture company in Malaysia to own and operate the
biodiesel refinery together with an integrated palm plantation
company.

"This MoU is the result of a year long discussion with Benefuel
Inc. followed by numerous discussions and a visit to Mission's
plant by a team from Benefuel.  We are excited with the
opportunity to retrofit Mission's 250,000 tpa plant with
Benefuel's ENSEL technology so that the plant can finally be
commissioned and put into operation," said Nathan Mahalingam, CEO
of Mission NewEnergy Limited.

"The technology provider is also keen to participate in the equity
of the operating company.  The structure of such an equity
participation, while discussed, has not been finalized.  The
company is also in discussions with various feedstock suppliers
and oleochemical companies to come on board as a shareholder and
joint venture partner in the operating company," Nathan added.

The Company is also in discussions with investors to assist in re-
capitalising the company and to provide working capital to fund
project development costs associated with this project.
Shareholder approval may be required depending on the outcome of
the discussions and proposed business structure.

                      About Mission NewEnergy

Based in Subiaco, Western Australia, Mission NewEnergy Limited is
a producer of biodiesel that integrates sustainable biodiesel
feedstock cultivation, biodiesel production and wholesale
biodiesel distribution focused on the government mandated markets
of the United States and Europe.

The Company is not operating its biodiesel refining segment.  The
refineries are being held in care and maintenance either awaiting
a return to positive operating conditions or the sale of assets.

The Company has materially diminished its Jatropha contract
farming operation and the company is now focused on divesting the
remaining Indian assets.  The Company intends to cease all Indian
operations.

Mission NewEnergy disclosed net profit of A$10.05 million on
A$8.41 million of total revenue for the year ended June 30, 2013,
as compared with a net loss of A$6.19 million on A$38.20 million
of total revenue during the prior fiscal year.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2013, showed
A$20.10 million in total assets, A$32.60 million in total
liabilities and a A$12.50 million total deficiency.

BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd, in Perth, Western Australia, issued a
"going concern" qualification on the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended June 30, 2013.  The independent
auditors noted that the Company incurred operating cash outflows
of $3.7 million during the year ended 30 June 2013 and, as of that
date the consolidated entity's total liability exceeded its total
assets by $12.5 million.  These conditions, along with other
matters, raise substantial doubt the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern.

-----------------------------------------------------------
Mountain China Resorts on Nov. 29 reported its financial results
for the quarter ended September 30, 2013.

                        Financial Results

Total revenue and the net results were from resort operations with

August 18th, 2013 (44 days in total).  In 2012, summer operations

net loss of $5.31 million or $0.02 per share compared to $1.18

Q3.  Resort Operations EBITDA from continuing operations for the
third quarter of 2013 were negative $0.73 million compared to
negative $0.5 million last year.  The deterioration of EBITDA and
net loss was mainly due to reduced revenue made in Club Med's
second summer operations.  Club Med opened its second resort in
China (Club Med Guilin Resort) in September.  As marketing
activity for Club Med Guilin resort started to pick up, many
guests were attracted to Guilin instead of Yabuli for summer
actitivities.  Also, since the new generation of national leaders
in China took office in the 12nd People's Congress in March 2013,
Chinese government has issued a series of policies aimed at
tightening up spending on government and business entertainment
and reception activities.  As a result, consumptions in tourism
and business receptions have decreased on a large scale, and
operations of Club Med were negatively affected by this social
environment.

Resort operations expenses from continuing operations totaled
$1.36 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 compared to
$1.61 million in 2012.  Operations expenses within the resorts are
mainly attributable to snow making, grooming, staffing, fuel and
utilities, which also include the G&A expenses relating to the
resort's senior management, marketing and sales, information
technology, insurance and accounting.

Other income totaled $0.1 million (2012:0.08 million), which
mainly consists of income recognized from the deposit by Club Med
of $0.08 million.

Corporate general and administrative expenses ("G&A expenses")
totaled $0.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013
compared to $0.16 million in 2012.  This amount mainly comprised
executive employee costs, public company costs, and corporate
information technology costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations
totaled $2.89 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013
compared to $2.81 million in 2012.

The Group incurred financing cost of $1.6 million for the quarter
ended September 30, 2013 from continuing operations compared to
$2.02 million in 2012.  Financing costs were mainly related to the
loan interest, and also included bank administrative fees, and
service charges.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $7.68 million and working
capital was negative $65.52 million as at September 30, 2013.

The Company has an accumulated deficit, a working capital
deficiency and has defaulted on a bank loan, which casts
substantial doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.  The Company's ability to meet its obligations as they
fall due and to continue to operate as a going concern is
dependent on further financing and ultimately, the attainment of
profitable operations.  These consolidated financial statements do
not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of
assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company
be unable to continue as a going concern.  Management of the
Company plans to fund its future operation by obtaining additional
financing through loans and private placements and through the
sale of the properties held for sale.  However, there is no
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional
financing or sell the properties held for sale.

Despite of the financial difficulty posed by the overdue debts and
continued loss, management is confident in the development of both
the industry and the Company in the near future.  The government
of Heilongjiang Province had demonstrated strong incentive to
support the skiing industry and the Company by increasing local
infrastructure investment and providing potential bank loan
interest subsidy scheme.  Recently in August the Company was
notified by Harbin Commercial Bank that they had approved to
extend the repayment schedule of its bank loan with an outstanding
balance of $23.56 million (RMB 140 million) from 3 years to 10
years. Revenue from Club Med in winter season had been growing
steadily, and the Company will be the official partner and playing
field of 2016 World Championships of Snowboarding.  Management are
also working on various means to attract new investment into the
company to complete the construction of villas and improve the
capital structure of the Company.

                          SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Trading in the Company's securities was reinstated by the TSX
Venture Exchange on October 16, 2013 as the Exchange is reviewing
the Company's status with respect to its Tier 1 Continued Listing
Requirements.

          2013 THIRD QUARTER MAJOR CORPORATE DEVELOPMENTS

Maturity of Bank Loan from Harbin Commercial Bank Extended to 10
Years

On February 14, 2012, the Company secured a bank loan for the
amount of $23,562 (RMB 140 million) from Harbin Commercial Bank.
The Original HCB Loan carries a three year-term with a maturity
date of February 15, 2015 and a fixed annual interest rate of
7.315%, with interest to be paid on a monthly basis commencing
February 16, 2012.  The principal of the Original HCB Loan is
repayable in four installments starting with the first installment
repayment due on August 15, 2013 and each subsequent installment
repayment due every six months thereafter.  The Company used the
advance from the Original HCB Loan and $1,683 (RMB 10 million) of
other available funds to repay the Bridge Loan.

In order to improve the capital structure, management of the
Company had been negotiating with the bank to extend the repayment
schedule.  In August, 2013, the Company was notified by Harbin
Commercial Bank that the bank had approved to extend the repayment
schedule from 3 years to 10 years.  According to the new
arrangement the loan will mature in December, 2022.  The first
installment of $505 (RMB3 million) is repayable in August 2013,
and thereafter the Company will need to repay $2,356 (RMB14
million) each year for eight consecutive years (RMB0.2 million in
December and 13.8 million in February), and $4,208 (RMB25 million)
in the final year (RMB0.4 million in December and 24.6 million in
February).  The Company had made the payment of the first
installment of $514 (RMB3 million) in August, 2013.

        Updates on China Construction Bank Loan Defaults

On March 31, 2013 the Company defaulted on its third principal
payment of $6.73 million (RMB 40 million) under its $42.08 million
(RMB250 million) loan agreement with the China Construction Bank.
According to the Loan Agreement between Yabuli and Construction
Bank, Construction Bank has the right to accelerate Yabuli's
obligation to repay the entire unpaid principal plus interest
immediately and to take legal actions to enforce on the security.
In August 2013 the Company was made aware that a formal
prosecution has been brought by the bank to demand repayment.  As
of on September 30, 2013, the principal and interest owing was
$44.26 million, and the collaterals associated with the loan
agreement are made up of the Company's land use rights and
property and equipment with a carrying value of approximately
$64.26 million.  The outcome of this lawsuit cannot be accurately
estimated at the time.  The company has been negotiating with the
bank to arrange for a debt restructuring plan, and as of the
reporting date, no consensus has been arrived yet.  Although the
bank informally expressed their intention to maintain normal
operations of the Company, there is no assurance that they will
not take further actions in the future.

                  Updates on Debt Restructuring

On February 8, 2012, the Company entered into a Debt Settlement
Agreement with Melco Leisure and Entertainment Group Limited for
the settlement of a loan in the principal of US$12 million made by
Melco to the Company and a loan in the principal of US$11 million
made by Melco to Mountain China Resorts Investment Limited, the
Company's Cayman subsidiary, both in 2008.  On May 29, 2012, the
Company and Melco entered into Amended and Restated Debt
Settlement Agreement to clarify details of the loan settlement
mechanism and procedures to implement the settlement of the Melco
Loans.  On July 10, 2012, during the Company's Annual General
Meeting, the Company obtained Shareholder Approval on the
Agreement.  The transactions contemplated under the Agreement have
been approved by the TSX Venture Exchange.

Detailed settlement arrangement can be found in Note 13 of 2013
Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.  Settlement procedures
were started in the second quarter of 2013, and the Company paid
$3.01 million to MLE on May 31, 2013 as a partial fulfilment to
its cash repayment obligation specified in the Agreement.  The
Company also issued 20,600,000 common shares and 19,444,444 common
shares to its subsidiary MCRI for the price of USD$0.18 on July 2,
2013 and July 23, 2013 respectively in preparation of fulfilling
certain of its obligations under the Agreement.  The 20,600,000
common shares issued in Issuance I will be transferred to MLE for
full satisfaction of the MCRI Loan with the new principal amount
of USD $14.9 million.  According to the Company's initial
discussion with MLE, the US$3.5m portion of the Principal would be
settled by conversion into 19,444,444 common shares.  Issuance II
was made in preparation of this potential settlement.  However,
after a series of negotiations, it is probable that management of
MLE will choose to take up to the maximum of five Chosen Villas on
the basis of USD $0.7 million per villa for settlement of the
US$3.5m portion of the Principal.  Therefore, it is probable that
the 19,444,444 common shares in the Issuance II may be canceled
later accordingly.  As of the reporting date, the Company is still
in negotiation with MLE on the details of the settlement.

                      Update on Changchun Resort

On November 17, 2010, the Company disclosed that the government of
Erdao district of Changchun City in the Jilin Province of the
People's Republic of China, through Changchun Lianhua Mountain
Agricultural Project Development Company Limited excluded the
Company from management of the Changchun Resort.  The Company has
engaged in discussions with the Erdao Government, Changchun
Lianhua Mountain Sports & Travel Development Company Changchun
Sports and CCL Agricultural with an aim of resolving this matter.
If the current situation cannot be resolved through negotiations,
the Company may have to resort to legal means to protect its
rights in relation to Changchun Resort.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company has lost control of
Changchun Resort and has therefore written off the full value of
the assets and liabilities of Changchun Resort and reported it as
a loss from discontinued operations as of December 31, 2010.  In
2011, the Company commenced legal actions against the Erdao
Government in an effort to regain control and ownership of the
assets and operations.

The Company's legal department has sent three letters of formal
complaint to the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of
China in June 2012, the Erdao Government, and Jilin Lianhua
Tourist Committee.  Recently, the Ministry of Commerce of the
People's Republic of China has assigned the case to the relevant
authority called the Economic and Technological Cooperation
Department of Jilin Province for handling.  After a series of
negotiations made and no consensus arrived, management had decided
to start formal administrative prosecution process against the
government.  As at September 30, 2013, management had sent several
letters of notice, but no formal prosecution has been started.

NESBITT PORTLAND: Wins Approval of $166-Mil. Sale of Hotels

Grant Lyon, the chief restructuring officer of Nesbitt Portland
Property, LLC, et al., obtained approval from the bankruptcy judge
to sell substantially all of the assets of the Debtors to ES
Feeholder, LLC, for $166.3 million.

ES Feeholder, an affiliate of secured lender ES Noteholder, LLC,
submitted the highest and best offer for the assets.  ES is a
joint venture formed by BlueMountain Capital Management LLC unit
and an affiliate of AWH Partners LLC.

Judge Robin L. Riblet noted that prior to selecting ES Feeholder
as the winning bidder, broker Jones Lang LaSalle, at the direction
of the CRO, solicited offers to acquire the purchased assets from
a wide variety of parties, including the Nesbitt Bidder (defined
as the entity owned by Patrick Nesbitt, Sr.).  The Nesbitt Bidder
submitted a qualified bid that was materially less than the
winning bidder, and agreed with the CRO that an open auction was
not required.  The Nesbitt Bidder remains outstanding as a back-up
bid, subject to the right of secured lender to submit a credit
bid.

ES Noteholder acquired the mortgage loan from U.S. Bank National
Association.

                  About Nesbitt Portland Property

Windsor Capital Group Inc. CEO Patrick M. Nesbitt sent hotel-
companies to Chapter 11 bankruptcy to stop a receiver named by
U.S. Bank National Association from taking over eight hotels,
seven of which are operated as Embassy Suites brand hotels.  The
eighth hotel, located in El Paso, Texas, was previously operated
as an Embassy Suites hotel, but lost its franchise agreement.
The eight hotels were pledged by the Debtors as collateral for the
loans with U.S. Bank.

According to http://www.wcghotels.com/Santa Monica-based Windsor
Capital owns and/or operates 23 branded hotels in 11 states across
the U.S.  Windsor Capital is the largest private owner and
operator of Embassy Suites hotels.

In the case U.S. Bank vs. Nesbitt Bellevue Property LLC, et al.
(S.D.N.Y. 12 Civ. 423), U.S. Bank obtained approval from the
district judge in June to name Alan Tantleff of FTI Consulting,
Inc., as receiver for:

* Embassy Suites Colorado Springs in Colorado;
* Embassy Suites Denver Southeast in Colorado;
* Embassy Suites Cincinnati - Northeast in Blue Ash, Ohio;
* Embassy Suites Portland - Washington Square in Tigard, Oregon;
* Embassy Suites Detroit - Livornia/Novi in Michigan;
* Embassy Suites El Paso in Texas;
* Embassy Suites Seattle - North/Lynwood in Washington; and
* Embassy Suites Seattle - Bellevue in Washington

The receiver obtained district court permission to engage Crescent
Hotels and Resorts LLC to manage the eight hotels.  But before Mr.
Adam could take physical possession of the properties and take
control of the Hotels, the eight borrowers filed Chapter 11
petitions (Bankr. C.D. Cal. Lead Case No. 12-12883) on
July 31, 2012, in Santa Barbara, California.

The debtor-entities are Nesbitt Portland Property LLC; Nesbitt
Bellevue Property LLC; Nesbitt El Paso Property, L.P.; Nesbitt
Denver Property LLC; Nesbitt Lynnwood Property LLC; Nesbitt
Colorado Springs Property LLC; Nesbitt Livonia Property LLC; and
Nesbitt Blue Ash Property LLC.

Bankruptcy Judge Robin Riblet presides over the cases.  The
Jonathan Gura, Esq., and Peter Susi, Esq., at Susi & Gura, PC; and
Joseph M. Sholder, Esq., at Griffith & Thornburgh LLP, represent
the Debtor as counsel.  Alvarez & Marsal North American, LLC,
serves as financial advisors.

Attorneys at Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP represented the
Debtors in the receivership case.

On Sept. 5, 2012, the Debtors filed with the Court their schedules
of assets and liabilities.  Nesbitt Portland scheduled
$29.4 million in assets and $192.3 million in liabilities.
Nesbitt Portland's hotel property is valued at $27.19 million, and
secures a $191.9 million debt to U.S. Bank.

A chief restructuring officer, Grant Lyon, was appointed as part
of the plan support agreement reached by the parties.  The CRO
supervised the sale process contemplated under the Chapter 11
plan.  The CRO tapped Allegiant Investors LLC as hotel consultant.

The Debtors and their lender submitted a Chapter 11 reorganization
plan that calls for selling off seven Embassy Suites brand hotels
and an eighth Texas hotel to new franchisors.  The hotels were put
up for auction in an attempt to cover at least $193 million in
outstanding lender claims -- including a defaulted $187.5 million
loan plus interest.  A copy of the findings of fact and order
confirming the Plan signed on Oct. 4, 2013, is available for free
at http://bankrupt.com/misc/Nesbitt_Plan_Order_Oct2013.pdf

The bankruptcy court will hold a hearing regarding the status of
the Debtors' post-confirmation efforts on March 28, 2014, and the
Debtors will, no later than March 21, 2014, file a status report
containing a general report on progress in consummating the Plan.

(NPI) to 'BBB' from 'BBB-'.  The outlook is stable.  At the same
time, Standard & Poor's raised its global scale and Canada scale
preferred stock ratings on NPI to 'BB+' and 'P-3(High)' from 'BB'
and 'P-3', respectively.  Standard & Poor's also affirmed its
'BBB' issue-level rating on the company's senior secured debt.

"The upgrade reflects our assessment of NPI's consistent and
stable cash flow as well as its strong track record of completing
projects on time and within budget," said Standard & Poor's credit
analyst Stephen Goltz.  "Cash flows from the North Battleford
project, which began commercial operations June 5, 2013, will
further support the company's overall credit metrics, in our
view," Mr. Goltz added.

NPI is an independent power generation company, with operations
primarily in Canada as well as some in the U.S. and Germany.  Its
operating asset portfolio consisted of a net economic interest in
power producing facilities with a total capacity of approximately
1,329 megawatts (MW) as of Sept. 30, 2013.  In addition, the
company has various projects in advanced development.  NPI
recently announced that it had signed an agreement to acquire a
majority equity stake in Gemini, a 600 MW offshore wind project
off the coast of the Netherlands.  NPI expects to reach financial
closure on Gemini in 2014.  S&P expects construction on the
project to start in late 2014 and the project to begin commercial
operations in 2017.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's view of NPI's partially
consolidated financial measures, which S&P believes will remain at
or above 30% parent-only cash flow (POCF)-to-debt, and S&P's
expectation that the company will continue to finance its projects
with nonrecourse project debt.  The outlook also reflects S&P's
expectation that NPI's long-term contracted power generation
businesses will continue to produce stable and predictable cash
flows with a quality of cash flow score of 5.  S&P believes there
will be a modest improvement in its diversity with respect to
asset concentration, counterparty, and fuel type as its various
projects come online on time and budget.

Given the potential for additional financial commitments to the
Gemini project in addition to what the company has already
committed to, S&P don't expect an upgrade during the next two-to-
three years.

Conversely, if the Gemini project should experience material
unanticipated delays or cost increases or POCF-to-debt
consistently falls below 22% on a partially deconsolidated basis,
S&P would consider a downgrade.

and non-performing assets.  We expect to enter 2014 as a much
stronger organization under John's leadership, and we remain
positive about the future for Porter Bancorp and PBI Bank,"
concluded Hogan.

John T. Taylor, age 53, was named president and CEO of PBI Bank

Louisville, Kentucky.  Through its wholly-owned subsidiary PBI
Bank, the Company operates 18 full-service banking offices in
12 counties in Kentucky.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2013, showed
$1.03 billion in total assets, $1 billion in total liabilities,
and $37.11 million in total stockholders' equity.

Crowe Horwath, LLP, in Louisville, Kentucky, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent auditors noted
that the Company has incurred substantial losses in 2012, 2011 and
2010, largely as a result of asset impairments.  In addition, the
Company's bank subsidiary is not in compliance with a regulatory
enforcement order issued by its primary federal regulator
requiring, among other things, increased minimum regulatory
capital ratios.  Additional significant asset impairments or
continued failure to comply with the regulatory enforcement order
may result in additional adverse regulatory action.  These events
raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern.

an accumulated deficit.  Additionally, the Company has incurred
operating losses since its inception and expects operating losses
to continue during 2013.  These conditions raise substantial doubt
about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Exchange Commission, Julian C. Day disclosed that as of

stock of RadioShack Corporation representing 1.3 percent of the

ownership of 5,366,028 common shares or 5.1 percent equity stake
as of Dec. 31, 2011.  A copy of the regulatory filing is available

As reported by the TCR on Nov. 23, 2012, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services lowered its corporate credit and senior unsecured debt
ratings on Fort Worth, Texas-based RadioShack Corp. to 'CCC+' from
'B-'.  "The downgrade of RadioShack reflects our view that it will
be very difficult for the company to improve its gross margin in
the fourth quarter of this year, given the highly promotional
nature of year-end holiday retailing in the wireless and consumer
electronic categories," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst
Jayne Ross.

In the July 27, 2012, edition of the TCR, Fitch Ratings has
downgraded its long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) for
RadioShack Corporation to 'CCC' from 'B-'.  The downgrade reflects
the significant decline in RadioShack's profitability, which has
become progressively more pronounced over the past four quarters.

As reported by the TCR on March 6, 2013, Moody's Investors Service
downgraded RadioShack Corporation's corporate family rating to
Caa1 from B3 and probability of default rating to Caa1-PD from B3-
PD.  RadioShack's Caa1 Corporate Family Rating reflects Moody's
opinion that the overall business strategy of the company to
reverse the decline in profitability has not gained any traction.

ROSEVILLE SENIOR LIVING: UST Balks at Duane Morris Employment
-------------------------------------------------------------
Roberta A. DeAngelis, United States Trustee for Region 3, objects
to Roseville Senior Living Properties, LLC's proposed employment
of Duane Morris as bankruptcy counsel, nunc pro tunc to Sept. 27,
2013.

In its application, the Debtor disclosed that prior to the
Petition Date, Duane Morris received a $40,000 retainer paid by
Meecorp, a third party non-debtor, which entity is the Debtor's
managing member, for purposes of, among other things, preparing
for and filing the Debtor's Chapter 11 case.  To the extent that
the Debtor has insufficient assets or is unable to pay pre- or
post-filing fees and costs in connection with the Debtor's
bankruptcy, Meecorp has agreed to make payment of those fees and
expenses incurred by Duane Morris, subject to approval by the
Court, the Debtor added.

Gregory R. Haworth, Esq., a member of Duane Morris, assured the
Court that the firm does not hold or represent any interest
adverse to the Debtor, its creditors or estate in these matters,
and is a disinterested person within the meaning of Section
101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code.

The application was filed by Michael Edrei, Managing Director of
Meecorp Capital Markets LLC, who also happens to be a Managing
Member of the Debtor.

The Honorable Donald H. Steckroth of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the District of New Jersey approved the employment on Nov. 12,
2013, but subsequently vacated his ruling following the U.S.
Trustee's filing of its objection.

The U.S. Trustee asserted that Duane Morris is not a disinterested
person because based on Mr. Edrei's testimony at the 341 Meeting,
Duane Morris is a prepetition creditor of the Debtor.
Furthermore, Duane Morris' fees are personally guaranteed by
Meecorp, the managing member of the Debtor, who by definition, is
an insider of the Debtor.  For the same reasons, added the U.S.
Trustee, Duane Morris' continued representation of Meecorp and Mr.
Edrei in state court litigation involving the Debtor highlights
the issue of Duane Morris' divided loyalties and whom the firm is
actually representing.

CapitalSource Finance LLC also filed a limited objection to the
Debtor's proposed employment of Duane Morris and reserved all its
rights with regard to the issues raised in the U.S. Trustee's
objection and as to any newly discovered evidence, including
without limitation, relating to any fee application.

In response to the objections, and to obviate any allegation of
disinterestedness raised by the U.S. Trustee, Duane Morris said it
would waive all legal fees for services performed for the Debtor
prepetition.  However, it requested the waiver would be without
prejudice to the firm requesting, in an interim fee application,
that the Court approve and authorize payment for services rendered
prior to the filing of the Petition which relate to the Debtor's
Chapter 11 filing.  Duane Morris further advised that it would
waive and confirmed that it would not look to any guarantee by
Meecorp Capital Markets LLC.  Lastly, Duane Morris proposed to
withdraw any representation of Meecorp in the Roseville state
court litigation, but added that there are two other litigations
pending in California which are unrelated to the Debtor in which
Duane Morris represents Meecorp.

SAND TECHNOLOGY: Cancels Registration of Class A Shares
-------------------------------------------------------
SAND Technology Inc. filed a Form 15 with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission to terminate the registration of its Class A
common shares.  As of Nov. 20, 2013, there was only one holder of
the Class A shares.

                        About SAND Technology

Westmount, Quebec-based SAND Technology Inc. (OTC BB: SNDTF)

As of April 30, 2013, the Company had C$2.86 million in total
assets, C$3.64 billion in total liabilities and a C$787,933
shareholders' deficiency.

"With the exception of the year ended July 31, 2012, the Company
has incurred operating losses in the past years and has
accumulated a deficit of $42,992,975 as at April 30, 2013.  The
Company has also generated negative cash flows from operations.
Historically, the Company financed its operating and capital
requirements mainly through issuances of debt and equity.  The
Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon,
amongst other things, attaining a satisfactory revenue level, the
support of its customers, a return to profitable operations and
the generation of cash from operations, the ability to secure new
financing arrangements and new capital.  These matters are
dependent on a number of items outside of the Company's control.
These material uncertainties cast substantial doubt regarding the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern," according to
the Company's quarterly report for the period ended April 30,
2013.

                         Negative Outlook

Standard & Poor's Ratings Services in January 2012 lowered its
corporate credit rating on Hoffman Estates, Ill.-based Sears
Holdings Corp. to 'CCC+' from 'B'.  "We removed the rating from
CreditWatch, where we had placed it with negative implications on
Dec. 28, 2011.  We are also lowering the short-term and commercial
paper rating to 'C' from 'B-2'.  The rating outlook is negative,"
S&P said.

"The corporate credit rating reflects our projection that Sears'
EBITDA will be negative in 2012, given our expectations for
continued sales and margin pressure," said Standard & Poor's
credit analyst Ana Lai.  She added, "We further expect that
liquidity could be constrained in 2013 absent a turnaround
or substantial asset sales to fund operating losses."

Moody's Investors Service in January 2012 lowered Sears Holdings
Family and Probability of Default Ratings to B3 from B1.
The outlook remains negative. At the same time Moody's affirmed
Sears' Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating at SGL-2.

The rating action reflects Moody's expectations that Sears will
report a significant operating loss in fiscal 2011.  Moody's added
that the rating action also reflects the company's persistent
negative trends in sales, which continue to significantly
underperform peers.

As reported by the TCR on Dec. 7, 2012, Fitch Ratings has affirmed
its long-term Issuer Default Ratings (IDR) on Sears Holdings
Corporation (Holdings) and its various subsidiary entities
(collectively, Sears) at 'CCC' citing that The magnitude of Sears'
decline in profitability and lack of visibility to turn operations
around remains a major concern.

STANS ENERGY: No Q3 Financials for Now Amid Impairment Charges
--------------------------------------------------------------
Stans Energy Corp. on Nov. 28 disclosed that it has made an
application to the Ontario Securities Commission to approve a
temporary management cease trade order under National Policy 12-
203 Cease Trade Orders for Continuous Disclosure Defaults, which,
if granted, will prohibit trading in securities of the Corporation
by certain insiders of the Corporation, whether direct or
indirect.

The Company is unable to file its 2013 unaudited interim financial
statements for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2013, management
discussion and analysis (MD&A) relating to the unaudited interim
financial statements, and CEO and CFO certificates relating to the
unaudited interim financial statements, as required by National
Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual
and Interim Filings by the Nov. 29, 2013 filing deadline.

The reason for the delay is that the Company is considering
impairment charges against its assets and needs more time to
determine the appropriate impairment for inclusion in its
financial reporting.

IFRS 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources
requires entities recognizing exploration and evaluation assets to
perform an impairment test on those assets when facts and
circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the assets may
exceed their recoverable amount.  Entities will measure the
impairment in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets once it
is identified.

On Oct. 31, 2013, Stans disclosed that it had filed an
international arbitration action against the Government of
Kyrgyzstan for its expropriatory and unlawful treatment of the
issuer in relation to the issuer's Kutessay II rate earth project.
Stans has complained that state action and inaction has unduly
delayed, prohibited and prevented it from completing necessary
pre-feasibility, feasibility, and other development work at
Kutessay II, and generally has resulted in the issuer being
deprived of the value of its asset.  This arbitration does not
strictly relate to state action or inaction with respect to the
issuer's other properties, but there are dependencies which need
review and analysis.  The Company also observed that its stock
market capitalization has fallen below the carrying amount of its
assets.

Consideration of impairment necessarily follows.  The necessary
work to determine the scope and amount of impairment is underway
but is not complete.

The Company anticipates that it will be in a position to remedy
the default by filing the Required Filings by January 28, 2013.
The MCTO will be in effect until the Required Filings are filed.

The Company confirms that it intends to satisfy the provisions of
the alternative information guidelines set out in section 4.3 and
4.5 of NP12-203 so long as it remains in default of filing the
required filings.

There are no insolvency proceedings to which the Company is
subject.

There is no material information concerning the affairs of the
Company which has not been generally disclosed.

process of constructing the Mt. Milligan copper-gold mine in
central British Columbia, which is expected to commence production
in 2013.  The Company's development projects include the Berg
copper-molybdenum-silver property and the Davidson molybdenum
property, both located in central British Columbia.  Its principal
executive office is in Denver, Colorado and its Canadian

As reported by the TCR on Aug. 14, 2012, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services lowered its long-term corporate credit rating on Denver-
based molybdenum miner Thompson Creek Metals Co. to 'CCC+' from
'B-'.  "These rating actions follow Thompson Creek's announcement
of weaker production and higher cost expectations through next
year," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Donald Marleau.

In the May 9, 2012, edition of the TCR, Moody's Investors Service
downgraded Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc.'s Corporate Family
Rating (CFR) and probability of default rating to Caa1 from B3.
Thompson Creek's Caa1 CFR reflects its concentration in
molybdenum, relatively small size, heavy reliance currently on two
mines, and the need for favorable volume and price trends in order
to meet its increasingly aggressive capital expenditure
requirements over the next several years.

TRINITY COAL: Wants DHG's Employment Expanded to Include Essar
--------------------------------------------------------------
Trinity Coal Corporation, et al., ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Eastern District of Kentucky to enter an order expanding
the scope of employment of the Debtors' tax accountants, Dixon
Hughes Goodman, on the terms set forth in the Amended Contract, so
that DHG may prepare federal and state income tax returns for the
year ending March 31, 2013, for the Debtors and Essar Minerals
Inc. (a non-debtor tax entity), which are due to be filed by
Dec. 15, 2013.

The Debtors tell the Court that expanding the scope of DHG's
employment to prepare and file the tax returns is essential for a
successful reorganization.  According to the Debtors, although the
employment terms set forth in the contracts did not contemplate
preparation of tax returns for a non-debtor entity, the original
terms of DHG's employment did include preparation and filing of
tax returns for the year ending on March 31, 2013.  Moreover, the
Debtors relate, historically, they and Essar have always prepared
and filed joint tax returns.

Due to the proposed added terms of DHG's employment, the Debtors
request that all legal fees and related costs and expenses they
incur on account of services rendered by DHG which are approved by
the Bankruptcy Court in the Chapter 11 cases be paid as
administrative expenses of the estates pursuant to the provisions
of the Bankruptcy Code including, but not limited to, Sections
330(a), 331, 503 and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code.

When its services are concluded, DHG will file a final fee
application with the Court at which time it will seek full
approval of any of the payments it has received under the Amended
Contract.

issued subpoenas concerning the Company's agreements related to
its InTouch Sensors.  The Company intends to cooperate fully with
the SEC regarding this non-public, fact-finding inquiry.  The SEC
has informed the Company that this inquiry should not be construed
as an indication that any violations of law have occurred or that
the SEC has any negative opinion of any person, entity or
security.  The Company does not intend to comment further on this
matter unless and until this matter is closed or further action is
taken by the SEC which, in the Company's judgment, merits further
comment or public disclosure.

URANIUM ONE: Fitch Assigns 'BB-' LT Issuer Default Rating
---------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned Canada-based Uranium One Inc. a Long-
term foreign currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR) of 'BB-'. The
Outlook is Stable.

Fitch has also assigned an expected 'BB-(EXP)' rating to the
USD350m senior secured notes to be issued by Uranium One
Investment Inc., a fully-owned subsidiary of Uranium One. The
final notes rating is contingent on the receipt of final documents
conforming materially to the preliminary documentation reviewed.

Uranium One's rating is notched up three levels from Fitch's
standalone assessment of 'B-' for support from its Russian state-
owned parent, JSC Atomic Energy Power Corporation (Atomenergoprom)
(BBB/Stable), and, ultimately, from the Russian Federation
(BBB/Stable), in line with the agency's Parent and Subsidiarity
Rating Linkage. Atomenergoprom is a principal company of the State
Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom (Rosatom), wholly owned by the
Russian Federation. Fitch's view of support is based on Uranium
One's strong strategic and operational ties with its parent.

Fitch believes that Uranium One's low-cost position for the
extraction of triuranium octoxide (U3O8) is important for
Rosatom's successful future development. Rosatom is the world's
leader in integrated uranium mining, enrichment and fuel
fabrication, in nuclear power plant engineering, fabrication and
construction, and a top nuclear power utility in Russia. Uranium
One currently accounts for about 38% of Rosatom's uranium needs
but given the recently announced delays in the development of
Rosatom's own mining assets in Russia, Fitch expects this share to
increase in the medium term. Uranium One obtains nearly all of its
uranium from Kazakhstan from joint ventures (JVs) with JSC
National Atomic Company Kazatomprom (BBB-/Stable) and sells over
half of its production to Rosatom predominantly at spot prices.

Uranium One's standalone creditworthiness is constrained by its
small size, by its dependence on production and dividends from the
JVs, and by exposure to a single commodity and spot uranium
prices. Based on Fitch conservative uranium price forecast ranging
between USD35.5 per pound (lb) to USD44.5/lb until 2016, Fitch
expects that Uranium One's funds from operations (FFO) that
includes income from wholly-consolidated operations and a
proportionate share of dividends from JVs will drop sharply in
2014-2015 and its FFO adjusted leverage will deteriorate
dramatically to above 15x in 2014-2015 before improving to about
6x (gross) and about 4.5x (net) by end-2016.

In Fitch view, Uranium One does not have robust legal ties with
its parent, such as financial guarantees from Atomenergoprom /
Rosatom for a large portion of its debt nor cross default
provisions in the parent's debt documentation that would cover
Uranium One and indicate stronger linkage between the subsidiary
and the parent.

Key Rating Drivers:

Strategic Mining Asset
Fitch views the full consolidation of Uranium One by Rosatom in
October 2013 as an indication of the company's importance to the
latter's long-term growth strategy. In 2012, Uranium One had total
attributable production of 12.2m lbs of uranium, 93% of which were
produced in Kazakhstan. Uranium One's production is a key factor
in Rosatom's long-term aim of maintaining its leading position
across global nuclear markets.

Low Production Cost
Using the low-cost in situ leaching method, Uranium One obtains
nearly all of its uranium from JVs with Kazatomprom. In 2012 the
company reported cash costs of USD16/lb of U3O8, and forecasts
2013 cash costs of USD19/lb, making it one of the lowest-cost
producers worldwide. Being a low-cost supplier, Uranium One should
help Rosatom to improve its enrichment margins. The company sells
its products predominately at spot prices, which distinguishes it
from some other mining companies such as Kazatomprom that sell
their uranium at a mix of long-term and spot prices.

Prices Impede New Projects
Uranium spot prices reached a multi-year low of USD35/lb in
October 2013, making production at many existing and new fields
unprofitable. As a result, a number of new projects have been
placed on care and maintenance with a potential for further
temporary suspension. It has recently been reported that due to
low uranium prices, Rosatom has decided to stop developing several
mining assets including Uranium One's projects Willow Creek in the
US (annual production below 1m lb to be maintained) and Honeymoon
in Australia (production to be placed on care and maintenance).
Fitch believes that Uranium One's position as a key supplier of
uranium to Rosatom will become even more important over the medium
term.

'B-' Standalone Assessment
The standalone assessment is capped by the company's small size,
by its dependence on production and dividends from the JVs and by
high expected FFO-adjusted gross leverage. Uranium One almost
exclusively depends on dividends from its JVs to service its debt.
In 2012, it received USD185m in dividends from JVs and in 9M13,
dividends received amounted to USD98.3m, down from USD129.1m in
9M12. In addition, Uranium One had USD67.3m in dividends
receivable at 30 September 2013. Despite the JVs' production being
in line with management forecasts, Fitch believes that in the
current price environment the dividend stream from the JVs could
be significantly lower than that per management expectations.
Therefore, Fitch expects Uranium One's standalone credit profile
to deteriorate significantly in 2014-2015 before improving by end-
2016.

Liquidity and Debt Structure:

Fitch views Uranium One's current liquidity position as currently
satisfactory but limited. At 30 September 2013, it had USD482m in
unrestricted cash, plus USD1.45bn in restricted cash earmarked for
repayment of a USD1.45bn revolving credit facility from an
affiliate of its intermediate parent, JSC Atomredmetzoloto, which
was fully repaid on 5 November 2013. Uranium One's other short-
term debt includes USD260m convertible debentures that the company
made an offer for on 15 November 2013. Its long-term debt consists
of USD465m RUB-denominated bonds that mature in 2016 and 2020.
Uranium One does not maintain any open bank credit facilities.

Uranium One's proposed USD350m notes will be guaranteed by certain
subsidiaries that accounted for 4.7% of its adjusted EBITDA and
24.5% of its consolidated total assets at 30 September 2013.
Uranium One's fully-owned mining assets in the US and Australia
will also serve as the security interest for the notes.
Nonetheless, Fitch expects that the company will predominantly
rely on dividends from its Kazakh JVs, which are not included as
security for the notes, to service the notes. Consequently, Fitch
assigns the expected rating to Uranium One's notes at the same
level as the IDR.

Rating Sensitivities:

Positive: Future developments that could lead to positive rating
action include:

-- A stronger linkage between Atomenergoprom / Rosatom and Uranium
   One, i.e., more robust legal ties such as financial guarantees
   from Atomenergoprom / Rosatom for a large portion of Uranium
   One's debt or cross default provisions that would include
   Uranium One

-- Improved financial profile, e.g., FFO adjusted gross leverage
   of below 3x and FFO fixed charge cover of at least 6x on a
   sustained basis would be positive for Uranium One's standalone
   profile

Negative: Future developments that could lead to negative rating
action include:

-- Weakening linkage between Atomenergoprom / Rosatom and Uranium
   One may result in Fitch reviewing the notching gap

-- Failure to improve the financial profile by end-2017 in line
   with expectations of a 'B-' rated mining company, e.g., FFO
   adjusted gross leverage of above 3.5x and FFO fixed charge
   cover of 5x and less on a sustained basis would be negative for
   the standalone profile

URANIUM ONE: S&P Lowers Corp. Credit Rating to 'B+'
---------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it lowered its long-term
corporate credit rating on Toronto-based uranium producer Uranium
One Inc. to 'B+' from 'BB-'.  The outlook is stable.

Standard & Poor's also lowered its assessment of the company's
stand-alone credit profile to 'b' from 'b+'.

At the same time, Standard & Poor's assigned its 'B+' issue-level
rating and '3' recovery rating to Uranium One's proposed
US$350 million senior secured notes.  In addition, Standard &
Poor's assigned its 'B-' issue-level rating and '6' recovery
rating to Uranium One's senior unsecured ruble bond notes
outstanding. A '3' recovery rating indicates meaningful (50%-70%)
recovery in a default scenario; a '6' recovery rating indicates
negligible (10%-30%) recovery.

"We downgraded Uranium One given our expectation of a high level
of expected volatility for cash flow/leverage ratios based on the
company's pro forma debt balance and contemporary uranium prices,"
said Standard & Poor's credit analyst George Economou.

Pro forma to the proposed senior secured notes offering, S&P
believes that the company's credit measures will be very sensitive
to the price of uranium with a US$5.00 per pound contraction
increasing its 2014 adjusted debt-to-EBITDA ratio to more than
6.0x and a funds from operations (FFO)-to-debt ratio below 10%,
ratios that are consistent with a "highly leveraged" financial
risk profile.

S&P views Uranium One's business risk profile as "weak,"
reflecting its assessment of the company's competitive position,
country risk, and risk in the mining industry.  In S&P's view, the
company has a better-than-average position on an industry cost
curve and average profitability compared with mining industry
peers; however, Uranium One also has high mine and geographic
concentration as well as a relatively short aggregate mining life
based on proven and probable reserves that are reported in
accordance with National Instrument 43-101, the Canadian mineral
resource classification system.

S&P considers Uranium One to be a government-related entity under
its criteria and have assigned a one-notch uplift based on this
analysis.

S&P assess Uranium One's financial risk profile as highly
leveraged, reflecting high potential volatility in financial
measures; a great reliance on indirect, subordinated cash flows
from its joint venture mines; and reduced financial flexibility
from lower cash balances.

The stable outlook reflects Standard & Poor's view that Uranium
One's low-cost production profile and long-term sales contracts
should help support the company's operating performance and cash
flow generation through next year.  S&P estimates that, under its
base case assumptions, the company's proportionately consolidated
adjusted debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio should increase to 4.5x-
5.5x and its FFO-to-debt ratio should decrease to 15%-20% with
modestly positive cash available for debt repayment through 2015.

S&P expects that the ratings could be pressured if any combination
of significantly tighter uranium margins, higher capital
expenditures, or acquisitions contributed to a debt-to-EBITDA
leverage ratio above 5.5x for an extended period.  S&P estimates
that this could occur if EBITDA were to deteriorate significantly
following a decline in uranium margins below US$15.00 per pound
due to a combination of weaker uranium demand expectations and
accelerating cash costs at Uranium One.

Although S&P don't expect in the next year, it could consider a
positive rating action on the company's stand-alone credit profile
if Uranium One demonstrates sustainably improved credit metrics,
including an adjusted debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio close to 3x,
due to better-than-expected profitability and reduced debt
balances.

In addition, S&P would reassess its view on extraordinary
government support if it sees a fundamental change in Uranium
One's role and link to the Russian Federation.


US INVESTIGATIONS: Bank Debt Trades at 2% Off
---------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which US Investigations
is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 97.78 cents-on-
the-dollar during the week ended Friday, Nov. 29, 2013, according
to data compiled by LSTA/Thomson Reuters MTM Pricing and reported
in The Wall Street Journal.  This represents an increase of 0.18
percentage points from the previous week, The Journal relates. US
Investigations pays 300 basis points above LIBOR to borrow under
the facility. The bank loan matures on Feb. 26, 2015 and is not
rated by Moody's and Standard & Poor's.  The loan is one of the
biggest gainers and losers among 205 widely quoted syndicated
loans with five or more bids in secondary trading for the week
ended Friday.

US Investigations Services, Inc., with corporate headquarters in
Falls Church, Virginia, is a leading provider of security-

USEC INC: Government to Fund Add'l $15.7MM for Centrifuge Project
-----------------------------------------------------------------
USEC Inc. and its subsidiary American Centrifuge Demonstration,
LLC, entered into Amendment No. 010 to the cooperative agreement
dated June 12, 2012, between the U.S. Department of Energy and
USEC and ACD for the research, development and demonstration
program for the American Centrifuge project.  The Amendment amends
the cooperative agreement to provide for additional government
obligated funds of $15.7 million, bringing total government
obligated funding to $256.9 million.  The Amendment also extends
the current funding period and end date of the program until
Jan. 15, 2014, enabling continued work to be performed under the
cooperative agreement through Jan. 15, 2014.  The other terms and
conditions, including the milestones and performance indicators
under the RD&D program were not changed by the Amendment.  USEC
continues to expect to meet the remaining three RD&D program
technical milestones during December 2013.

The cooperative agreement provides funding for a cost-share RD&D
program to demonstrate the American Centrifuge technology through
the construction and operation of a commercial demonstration
cascade of 120 centrifuge machines and sustain the domestic U.S.
centrifuge technical and industrial base for national security
purposes and potential commercialization of the American
Centrifuge technology.  The cooperative agreement, as amended by
the Amendment, provides for 80 percent DOE and 20 percent USEC
cost sharing for work performed during the period June 1, 2012
through Jan. 15, 2014.  DOE's contribution has been incrementally
funded.

USEC said it is evaluating and pursuing the feasibility of
alternatives and the actions necessary to proceed with the
commercial deployment of the American Centrifuge technology,
including the availability of additional government support and
has initiated discussions with DOE regarding the project's need
for this support.  However, USEC has no assurance that it will be
successful in achieving any of these measures or the timing
thereof.  In light of USEC's liquidity, it does not have the
ability to continue to fund the American Centrifuge project at its
current levels beyond the end of the RD&D program without
additional government support and even with this support USEC's
ability to provide funding in 2014 will be limited.  Therefore,
USEC continues to evaluate its options concerning the American
Centrifuge project, including its ability to continue the project
prior to or upon completion of the RD&D program, further
demobilization of or delays in the commercial deployment of the
project, and termination of the project, and could make a decision
to demobilize or terminate the project in the near term.  Any such
actions may have a material adverse impact on USEC's ability to
deploy the American Centrifuge technology, on its liquidity and on
the long-term viability of its enrichment business.

The Company, or its subsidiaries, is also a party to a number of
other agreements or arrangements with the U.S. government.

                          About USEC Inc.

Headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland, USEC Inc. (NYSE: USU) --
http://www.usec.com/-- supplies enriched uranium fuel for
commercial nuclear power plants.

USEC disclosed a net loss of $1.20 billion in 2012 as compared
with a net loss of $491.1 million in 2011.  The Company's balance
sheet at Sept. 30, 2013, showed $1.70 billion in total assets,
$2.16 billion in total liabilities and a $462.1 million
stockholders' deficit.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, in McLean, Virginia, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent auditors noted
that the Company has reported net losses and a stockholders'
deficit at Dec. 31, 2012, and is engaged with its advisors and
certain stakeholders on alternatives for a possible restructuring
of its balance sheet, which raise substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern.

                        Bankruptcy Warning

"A delisting of our common stock by the NYSE and the failure of
our common stock to be listed on another national exchange could
have significant adverse consequences.  A delisting would likely
have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would
impair stockholders' ability to sell or purchase our common stock.
As of September 30, 2013, we had $530 million of convertible notes
outstanding.  Under the terms of our convertible notes, a
"fundamental change" is triggered if our shares of common stock
are not listed for trading on any of the NYSE, the American Stock
Exchange (now NYSE-MKT), the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ
Global Select Market, and the holders of the notes can require
USEC to repurchase the notes at par for cash.  We have no
assurance that we would be eligible for listing on an alternate
exchange in light of our market capitalization, stockholders'
deficit and net losses.  Our receipt of a NYSE continued listing
standards notification described above did not trigger a
fundamental change.  In the event a fundamental change under the
convertible notes is triggered, we do not have adequate cash to
repurchase the notes.  A failure by us to offer to repurchase the
notes or to repurchase the notes after the occurrence of a
fundamental change is an event of default under the indenture
governing the notes.  Accordingly, the exercise of remedies by
holders of our convertible notes or the trustee of the notes as a
result of a delisting would have a material adverse effect on our
liquidity and financial condition and could require us to file for
bankruptcy protection," the Company said in its quarterly report
for the period ended Sept. 30, 2013.

ChromaID is a breakthrough light-based identification and

spectral analysis and other costly methods of identification,
authentication, and diagnosis.

IV will provide access to its global network of inventors and
engineers to develop applications for ChromaID, including
solutions for medical diagnostics, and food and drug safety.  IV
has also agreed to file a minimum of 10 patents covering these new
ChromaID applications.

"Our new partnership with Intellectual Ventures is a tremendous
validation of our technology," said Visualant founder and CEO Ron
Erickson.  "Partnering with IV puts our technology in the hands of
the world's strongest IP development company, and its network of
inventors and engineers.

"With the anticipated expansion of Visualant's intellectual
property, we expect to benefit immensely from IV's global
invention network, and highly successful business development and
IP licensing teams.  With IV's assistance, we will put ChromaID
technology into the hands of the world's most innovative people at
companies with tremendous capital and development resources,
giving us great confidence that this disruptive technology will be
soon be deployed in real-world applications."

All of Visualant's currently available ChromaID Scanner and
Software Development Kit (SDK) inventory has been allocated and
are scheduled to ship the week of November 18.  Additional
ChromaID Scanners and SDKs are being manufactured and scheduled
for availability in early 2014.

"Visualant's significant research and development investment has
resulted in a truly revolutionary technology in ChromaID," said
Tim Londergan, head of commercial development for the Invention
Development Fund at Intellectual Ventures.  "We plan to expand the
ChromaID patent portfolio as we develop innovative commercial
applications."

In addition to traditional IP licensing deals, companies work with
IV's in-house inventors as well as its network of more than 4,000
inventors across ten countries to solve near-term technical issues
and invent the technologies that will differentiate next-
generation products from the competition.  IV's IP portfolio
includes nearly 40,000 patent assets across more than 50 fields of
technology.

W.R. GRACE: Lincoln, FCR Advisor, Also Involved in Bondex Case
--------------------------------------------------------------
Roger Frankel, the court-appointed legal representative for future
W.R. Grace claimants, previously obtained approval to retain
Lincoln Partners Advisors LLC as his financial adviser.

Joseph Radecki, Jr., a managing director of Lincoln Partners
Advisors LLC, recently disclosed in a court filing that the
committee representing holders of asbestos-related claims tapped
the firm to provide investment banking services to the committee
in the Chapter 11 cases of Specialty Products Holding Corp. and
Bondex International, Inc.  Mr. Radecki said that despite that
representation Lincoln Partners continues to be a "disinterested
person" since the proposed engagement of the firm is unrelated to
the bankruptcy cases of W.R. Grace & Co. and its affiliated
debtors.

Lincoln is assisting Mr. Frankel in reviewing the conduct and
financial condition of W.R. Grace & Co.  The firm is also advising
him concerning the company's Chapter 11 reorganization plan or any
other plan, and evaluating the financial effect of the
implementation of that plan to the assets or securities of the

WALTER ENERGY: Bank Debt Trades at 2% Off
-----------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which Walter Energy Inc.
is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 97.93 cents-on-
the-dollar during the week ended Friday, Nov. 29, 2013, according
to data compiled by LSTA/Thomson Reuters MTM Pricing and reported
in The Wall Street Journal.  This represents a decrease of 0.22
percentage points from the previous week, The Journal relates.
Walter Energy Inc. pays 575 basis points above LIBOR to borrow
under the facility. The bank loan matures on March 14, 2018 and
carries Moody's B3 rating and Standard & Poor's B rating.  The
loan is one of the biggest gainers and losers among 205 widely
quoted syndicated loans with five or more bids in secondary

issue-level rating to Walter Energy Inc.'s proposed $350 million

WSP HOLDINGS: Bad Debt Expenses of $16.8MM on Chaoyang Waiver
-------------------------------------------------------------
WSP Holdings Limited in May 2013 entered into an agreement to
waive the payment of $16.8 million owed by Chaoyang Seamless Oil
Steel Casting Pipes Co., Ltd., whose 51% equity interest was held
by the Company prior to January 2012, to two of the Company's
subsidiaries.

The Company on Nov. 28 disclosed that in connection with this
waiver, it recorded bad debt expenses of approximately $16.8
million, which led to an increase in general and administrative
expenses quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year.  The waiver was
formally approved by the Company's board of directors in October
2013.

WSP Holdings reported revenues of $119.3 million in the first
quarter of 2013, compared to $131.4 million in the fourth quarter
of 2012, primarily due to a decrease in revenues from domestic API
products.  Domestic sales and export sales accounted for 33.8% and
66.2%, respectively, of total revenues for the first quarter of
2013.

On a quarter-over-quarter basis, domestic sales decreased
primarily due to a 42.8% decrease in domestic sales volume and
partly due to a 2.5% decrease in average selling prices.  Export
sales increased quarter-over-quarter primarily due to a 22.4%
increase in average selling prices, and partly due to a 9.4%
increase in sales volume.

On a year-over-year basis, domestic sales decreased primarily due
to a 51.5% decrease in domestic sales volume and partly due to a
6.1% decrease in average selling prices.  Export sales increased
year-over-year primarily due to a 92.1% increase in export sales
volume.

API and non-API product sales accounted for 79.9% and 14.4%,
respectively, of total revenues in the first quarter of 2013.
Lower quarter-over-quarter sales revenues from API product sales
were primarily due to a 25.7% decrease in sales volume, offset by
a 26.0% increase in average selling prices.  Non-API sales
revenues decreased quarter-over-quarter primarily due to a 6.5%
decrease in average selling prices, offset by a 5.4% increase in
sales volume.

API sales revenues increased year-over-year due to a 24.2%
increase in average selling prices, offset by a 15.0% decrease in
sales volume.  Non-API sales decreased year-over-year primarily
due to an 11.7% decrease in average selling prices and partly due
to a 9.2% decrease in sales volume.

Gross margin in the first quarter of 2013 was 20.6%, compared to
4.9% in the fourth quarter of 2012 and 2.1% in the first quarter
of 2012.  Higher quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year gross
margins were due to higher average selling prices.

Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2013 were $43.7
million, up 38.3% from $31.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2012
and up 212.7% from $14.0 million in the first quarter of 2012.
Selling and marketing expenses were $7.6 million, compared to $6.2
million in the fourth quarter of 2012 and $2.9 million in the
first quarter of 2012.  The quarter-over-quarter increase in
selling and marketing expenses was primarily due to an increase in
sales commission associated with increased export sales.  General
and administrative expenses were $35.6 million, compared to $26.3
million in the fourth quarter of 2012 and $16.8 million in the
first quarter of 2012.

Loss from operations was $19.1 million in the first quarter of
2013, compared to loss from operations of $11.3 million and
$25.2 million in the first quarter of 2012 and the fourth quarter
of 2012, respectively.

Net interest expense was $8.0 million in the first quarter of
2013, compared to $10.6 million in the first quarter of 2012 and
$6.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012.  Higher quarter-over-
quarter net interest expense was mainly attributable to an
increase in the amount of capitalized interest expense in the
fourth quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2013.

The Company recorded income tax expense of $1.1 million in the
first quarter of 2013, compared to an income tax benefit of
$3.8 million and $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2012 and in
the fourth of 2012, respectively.

Net loss attributable to WSP Holdings was $25.8 million in the
first quarter of 2013, compared to net loss attributable to WSP
Holdings of $16.6 million and $29.1 million in the first quarter
of 2012 and the fourth quarter of 2012, respectively.

Basic and diluted loss per ADS were both $1.26 in the first
quarter of 2013, compared to basic and diluted loss per ADS of
$0.81 and $1.43 for both in the first quarter of 2012 and in the
fourth quarter of 2012, respectively.

Financial Condition

As of March 31, 2013, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$11.8 million, compared to $26.1 million as of Dec. 31, 2012.
Restricted cash totaled $194.1 million as of March 31, 2013,
compared to $206.8 million as of December 31, 2012.  As of
March 31, 2013, the Company had short term borrowings of
$809.2 million and long term borrowings of nil, compared to
$787.0 million and $15.9 million, respectively, as of Dec. 31,
2012.  As of March 31, 2013, one of the Company's major operating
subsidiaries has drawn down approximately RMB2.5 billion ($404.1
million) out of the total approved syndicated loan facility of
RMB2.9 billion ($456.2 million) entered into with eight commercial
banks in late August 2011, allowing it to replace certain of its
existing short-term borrowings with mid-term working capital
loans.  The subsidiary is subject to continued compliance with
certain bank loan covenants, including maintaining certain
financial ratios and thresholds.  The subsidiary did not meet
certain financial covenants under the syndicated loan facility
agreement for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The bank
syndicate held a review meeting and reached an agreement to waive
the aforementioned breaches of financial covenants.  The formal
approval process within the bank syndicate is currently underway.
Another two subsidiaries of the Company are also in breach of
their financial covenants under project loans.  As of March 31,
2013, the Company's short term borrowings include loans not due
within one year of $197.7 million that were reclassified as short
term borrowings due to technical breaches of these loans.  The
Company's lenders have not accelerated the repayment of their
loans under these credit facilities.  In the event that the
Company is unable to reach an agreement with these lenders, the
lenders may accelerate the repayment of the loans and the
Company's ability to draw down under these credit facilities may
be affected.

Accounts receivable and inventory totaled $187.8 million and
$209.4 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2013, compared to
$217.0 million and $205.2 million, respectively, as of December
31, 2012.  As of March 31, 2013 total assets were $1,336.2
million, total liabilities were $1,216.4 million and total equity
was $119.8 million.

Capital expenditures incurred for the three months ended March 31,
2013 were $4.2 million and were funded mainly through operating
cash flow and bank loans.  The Company has almost completed its
major capital expenditure projects and will continue to reevaluate
and revise its capital expenditure plan based on the prevailing
economic conditions and future expectations, as well as the
availability of funding.

Going Private Transaction

On August 15, 2013, the Company announced that the parties to the
going private transaction of the Company amended the Agreement and
Plan of Merger to extend the termination date to December 31,
2013.  Pursuant to the original Merger Agreement dated
February 21, 2013, each of the Company's ordinary shares issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the
Merger will be cancelled and cease to exist in exchange for the
right to receive $0.32 without interest, and each ADS, which
represents ten ordinary shares, will represent the right to
surrender the ADS in exchange for $3.20 in cash without interest.

The Merger is subject to the authorization and approval of the
Merger Agreement by an affirmative vote of shareholders
representing at least two-thirds of the Shares present and voting
in person or by proxy as a single class at a meeting of the
Company's shareholders, as well as certain other customary closing
conditions.  Expert Master Holdings Limited, a company wholly-
owned by Mr. Longhua Piao, the Company's Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, and UMW China Ventures (L) Ltd. collectively
beneficially own sufficient Shares to approve the Merger Agreement
and the Merger and have agreed to vote in favor of such approval.
If completed, the Merger will result in the Company becoming a
privately-held company and its ADSs will no longer be listed on
the NYSE.  However, the Company cannot assure you that the merger
will be completed.

Operational Environment and Business Outlook

After trading in a range of $100-$110 per barrel over the last
several months, oil prices traded in a range of $90-$100 a barrel
in late October and November 2013.  Oil prices are expected to
continue fluctuating due to heightened global economic
uncertainty.

On the international front, WSP Holdings continues to pursue new
opportunities and broaden its customer base in South America, the
Middle East and Central Asia, which provide opportunities for
sales growth.  On the domestic front, WSP Holdings has launched
certain new series of non-API products for commercial use and will
continue to focus on domestic customers in areas such as Xinjiang
Autonomous Region, Sichuan Province and Shaanxi Province, which
provide opportunities for sales of higher-margin, non-API
products.

                       Going Concern Doubt

MaloneBailey LLP, in Houston, Texas, expressed substantial doubt
about WSP Holdings Limited's ability to continue as a going
concern, following the Company's results for the fiscal year ended
Dec. 31, 2011.  The independent auditors said: "As discussed in
Note 2(a) to the consolidated financial statements, the fact that
the Company suffered significant operating loss and had working
capital deficiency while a significant amount of short-term
borrowings is required to be refinanced raises substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern."

Bankruptcy Judge Harlin DeWayne Hale entered a findings of fact,

YRC WORLDWIDE: Solus Alternative Stake at 5.3% as of Nov. 29
------------------------------------------------------------
In a Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, Solus Alternative Asset Management LP and its
affiliates disclosed that as of Nov. 29, 2013, they beneficially
owned 614,377 shares of common stock of YRC Worldwide Inc.
representing 5.32 percent of the shares outstanding.  A copy of
the regulatory filing is available for free at http://is.gd/Z5Lik7

                        About YRC Worldwide

Headquartered in Overland Park, Kan., YRC Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ:
YRCW) -- http://www.yrcw.com/-- is a holding company that offers
its customers a wide range of transportation services.  These
services include global, national and regional transportation as
well as logistics.

After auditing the 2011 results, the Company's independent
auditors expressed substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern.  KPMG LLP, in Kansas City,
Missouri, noted that the Company has experienced recurring net
losses from continuing operations and operating cash flow deficits
and forecasts that it will not be able to comply with certain debt
covenants through 2012.

For the year ended Dec. 31, 2012, the Company incurred a net loss
of $136.5 million on $4.85 billion of operating revenue, as
compared with a net loss of $354.4 million on $4.86 billion of
operating revenue during the prior year.  As of Sept. 30, 2013,
the Company had $2.13 billion in total assets, $2.79 billion in
total liabilities and a $665.8 million total shareholders'
deficit.

                           *     *     *

As reported by the TCR on Aug. 2, 2013, Moody's Investors Service
affirmed the rating of YRC Worldwide, Inc., corporate family
rating at Caa3.  The ratings outlook is has been changed to
positive from stable.

"The positive ratings outlook recognizes the important progress
that YRCW has made in restoring positive operating margins through
implementation of yield management initiatives, during a period of
stabilizing demand in the less than truckload ('LTL') segment,"
the report stated.

In August 2011, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its
corporate credit rating on YRC Worldwide Inc. to 'CCC' from 'SD'
(selective default), after YRC completed a financial
restructuring.  Outlook is stable.

"The ratings on Overland Park, Kan.-based YRCW reflect its
participation in the competitive, capital-intensive, and cyclical
trucking industry," said Ms. Ogbara, "as well as its meaningful
off-balance-sheet contingent obligations related to multiemployer
pension plans." "YRCW's substantial market position in the less-
than-truckload (LTL) sector, which has fairly high barriers to
entry, partially offsets these risk factors. We categorize YRCW's
business profile as vulnerable, financial profile as highly
leveraged, and liquidity as less than adequate."

                            *********

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.

The Sunday TCR delivers securitization rating news from the week
then-ending.
