ABTECH HOLDINGS: Insufficient Revenues Raise Going Concern Doubt
----------------------------------------------------------------
AbTech Holdings, Inc., filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, disclosing a net
loss of $1.73 million on $114,000 of net revenues for the three
months ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared with a net loss of $1.53
million on $72,500 of net revenues for the same period in the
prior year.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $1.08
million in total assets, $8.15 million in total liabilities, and a
stockholders' deficit of $7.07 million.

The Company has not achieved a sufficient level of revenues to
support its business and has suffered substantial recurring losses
from operations since its inception.  These factors raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue
operations as a going concern, according to the regulatory filing.

A copy of the Form 10-Q is available at:

                       http://is.gd/9jVw6b

AbTech Holdings, Inc., through its subsidiary, manufactures
products that remove some pollutants from water.  The Company's
products remove hydrocarbons, sediment and other foreign elements
from still ponds, lakes and marinas or from flowing water such as
curbside drains, pipe outflows, rivers and oceans.

The Company reported a net loss of $1.58 million on $182,570 of
net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared
with a net loss of $1.46 million on $134,066 of net revenues for
the same period last year.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2014, showed $1.55 million
in total assets, $7.07 million in total liabilities, and a
stockholders' deficit of $5.52 million.


AEREO INC: Allowed to Auction Web TV Technology
-----------------------------------------------
Patrick Fitzgerald, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reported
that U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane in Manhattan has authorized
Aereo Inc. to auction its TV streaming technology after the
company struck a deal with broadcasters over the sale process.

According to the report, the approval came after Aereo and
broadcasters agreed to how and when the company can scrub its
servers and how much time broadcasters will have to oppose any
sale that could infringe their copyrights.  Under the revamped
auction rules, Aereo will also provide weekly updates on the
status of the sale process and will allow the broadcasters to
attend the auction, the report related.

As previously reported by The Troubled Company Reporter, citing
Daily Bankruptcy Review, in a series of filings with the
Bankruptcy Court, Aereo traded barbs with broadcasters, who insist
any sale of Aereo's technology will harm their chances of
collecting potentially tens of millions of dollars in damages from
a copyright lawsuit victory.

                        About Aereo, Inc.

With headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts, Aereo, Inc., is a
technology company that provided subscribers with the ability to
watch live or "time-shifted" local over-the-air broadcast
television on internet-connected devices, such as personal
computers, tablet devices, and "smartphones."   Aero provided to
each subscriber access, via the internet, to individual remote or
micro-antennas and a cloud-based DVR, which were maintained by the
Debtor in facilities within the local market.

Aereo, Inc., sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case
No. 14-13200) in Manhattan, New York, on Nov. 20, 2014.  The
Chapter 11 filing came five months after the U.S. Supreme Court
ruled the Debtor, with respect to live or contemporaneous
transmissions, was essentially performing as a traditional cable
system under the Copyright Act, and thus was violating
broadcasters' copyrights because it wasn't paying broadcasters any
fees.

The Debtor has tapped William R. Baldiga, Esq., at Brown Rudnick
LLP, in New York, as counsel.  The Debtors has also engaged Argus
Management Corp. to provide the services of Lawton W. Bloom as CRO
and Peter Sullivan and Scott Dicus as assistant restructuring
officers.  Prime Clerk LLC is the claims and notice agent.

The Debtor disclosed $22,163,168 in assets and $2,775,970 in
liabilities as of the Chapter 11 filing.


ALIMERA SCIENCES: Negative Cash Flow Raises Going Concern
---------------------------------------------------------
Alimera Sciences, Inc., filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, disclosing
a net loss of $7.01 million on $2.41 million of net revenue for
the three months ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared with a net loss of
$1.11 million on $758,000 of net revenue for the same period in
the prior year.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $93.3
million in total assets, $85.07 million in total liabilities and
total stockholders' equity of $8.22 million.

The Company's negative cash flow from operations and accumulated
deficit raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern.

A copy of the Form 10-Q is available at:

                       http://is.gd/qZ719Q

                      About Alimera Sciences

Alpharetta, Ga.-based Alimera Sciences, Inc., is a
biopharmaceutical company that specializes in the research,
development and commercialization of prescription ophthalmic
pharmaceuticals.  The Company is presently focused on diseases
affecting the back of the eye, or retina, because it believes
these diseases are not well treated with current therapies and
represent a significant market opportunity.

Alimera Sciences disclosed net income of $1.12 million on $2.19
million of net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2014,
compared with a net loss of $16.36 million on $179,000 of net
revenue for the same period last year.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2014, showed $48.66
million in total assets, $35 million in total liabilities
and total stockholders' equity of $13.66 million.


ALMA ENERGY: Kentucky Court Rules in Halle v. Banner Appeal
-----------------------------------------------------------
Banner Industries of N.E., Inc., Gary J. Richard, and Pikeville
Energy Group, LLC (PEG) sued Warren E. Halle, THC Kentucky Coal
Venture I, LLC (THC), and West Virginia Coal Venture I, LLC,
(WVCI).  The initial complaint alleged: (1) fraud in the
inducement and breach of contract; (2) tortious interference with
business relations; (3) civil conspiracy; (4) breach of contract-
third party beneficiaries; and (5) trade disparagement.  Banner et
al. filed an amended complaint in which they withdrew the breach
of contract-third party beneficiaries and trade disparagement
claims but added a count of abuse of process solely against THC.
Halle et al. maintain the Pike Circuit Court erred when it denied
their motion to dismiss all tort claims asserted against them
based on absolute immunity under the judicial statements
privilege. Alternatively, they argue no statements made in prior
collateral bankruptcy proceedings and lawsuits may be used in
support of the asserted tort claims.

In a Dec. 19, 2014 decision available at http://is.gd/8hDdCRfrom
Leagle.com, the Court of Appeals of Kentucky affirmed the order
denying Halle's motion to dismiss.

The appellate case is, WARREN E. HALLE; THC KENTUCKY COAL VENTURE
I LLC; AND WEST VIRGINIA COAL VENTURE I LLC, Appellants, v. BANNER
INDUSTRIES OF N.E., INC.; GARY J. RICHARD; AND PIKEVILLE ENERGY
GROUP, LLC, Appellees, No. 2012-CA-001997-MR (Ky. App.).

In July 2006, Halle, who was the owner and chief executive officer
of THC, and Alma Energy organized Kentucky Coal Venture I, (KCVI)
as a corporate instrument to facilitate their joint venture.

                        About Alma Energy

Alma Energy, LLC, owned rights to mine coal on two tracts of land
located in Pike County, Ky.  Out of cash, the Debtor suspended its
mining operation and sought chapter 11 protection (Bankr. E.D. Ky.
Case No. 07-70370) on August 13, 2007.  The mining operation was
restarted in 2008 with funding by Pikeville Energy Group, LLC, but
halted again during the chapter 11 proceeding.  On April 17, 2009,
the United States Trustee moved to dismiss the case or convert it
to a Chapter 7 liquidation proceeding.  On May 20, 2009, the
bankruptcy court entered an order converting the Debtor's case to
one under Chapter 7, and the U.S. Trustee appointed Phaedra
Spradlin as the Chapter 7 trustee.


AMERICAN INT'L HOLDINGS: Expects Further Losses in Future
---------------------------------------------------------
American International Holdings Corp. filed with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form
10-Q, disclosing a net loss of $37,938 on $nil of revenue for the
three months ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared to a net loss of
$34,153 on $nil of revenue for the same period last year.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2014, showed $2.25 million
in total assets, $17,000 in total liabilities, and stockholders'
equity of $2.24 million.

The Company has no operations, has a net loss of $97,600 for the
nine months ended Sept. 30, 2014, has an accumulated deficit of
$2.04 million, and has no sources of revenue and expects to incur
further losses in the future, thus raising substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

A copy of the Form 10-Q is available at:

                       http://is.gd/eqGTKd

American International Holdings Corp. engages in seeking a
business combination with an operating company through acquiring
its assets, properties, and other means.  The company was founded
on February 3, 2010 and is headquartered in Kemah, Texas.


AUSTIN CONVENTION: S&P Affirms 'BB' Rating on 2006B Bonds
---------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services withdrew its '6' recovery
rating from Austin-Convention Center Enterprises Inc.'s (Austin
Convention Center) $95.17 million series 2006B second-tier revenue
bonds due 2034.

At the same time, S&P affirmed its 'BBB-' issue credit rating on
the series 2006A bonds and the 'BB' issue credit rating on the
series 2006B bonds.  The outlook is stable on both issues.

"The withdrawal of the recovery rating on Austin Convention Center
Hotel's issue credit rating reflects the revision in our project
finance criteria," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Jayne
Ross.

S&P's ratings reflect its view that the hotel benefits from the
project's location near the convention center, the strength of the
Austin hospitality market, which has been above the hospitality
industry's national average for the past three years, its solid
operating performance, its liquidity, and an experienced hotel
operator in Hilton Hotel Worldwide.  These factors are partially
offset by the highly cyclical and competitive nature of the
hospitality sector.

The project is a, 800-room full-service hotel in downtown Austin
across the street from the Austin Convention Center.  The hotel
opened on Dec. 27, 2003, and has 26 stories, with about 70,000
square feet of meeting space (including two ballrooms).  Below the
hotel is a 750-space parking garage with 600 spots operated by the
hotel.  The series 2006 bond proceeds refunded the 2001 first- and
second-tier series bonds, which the project used to build the
convention center headquarters hotel in downtown Austin, Texas.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's view that the project's solid
operating performance and financial measures will be maintained,
driven by the continued strong performance of the Austin
hospitality market.  S&P believes that over the next several years
there could be some further growth in ADR, especially given that
demand still exceeds hotel supply and convention center booking
trends are favorably offset by the addition of hotel room supply
to the market over the next several years.  The project's senior
debt credit measures map to the 'bbb' category in the base case
and the subordinated debt's credit measures map to the 'bb'
category.  As result, S&P's guidance for upgrade and downgrade map
to credit measures established for these rating levels.

S&P could lower the ratings because of a prolonged economic
slowdown, significant operating expense growth, or the arrival of
a new direct competitors that results in operating performance
that is weaker than S&P's expectations and reduces the series
2006A bonds' DSCR to less than 2.5x for more than two years.  S&P
would consider downgrading the series 2006B bonds if the DSCR for
the series 2006A and B bonds declines and is sustained below 1.5x
for two years.  In addition, a significant reduction in liquidity
could also result in lower ratings.

Although not likely in the near term given S&P's expectations for
an increase in hotel room supply in the Austin market over the
next several years, S&P could raise the rating if the project saw
a successful track record of financial performance well in excess
of S&P's forecasts throughout the hospitality cycle in Austin that
results in sustained series 2006A bonds DSCR of more than 3.5x.
To upgrade the series 2006B bonds, the DSCR would have to be
sustained throughout the hospitality cycle in the 2x area.


BERNARD L. MADOFF: Picard Seeks Nod for 5th Distribution
--------------------------------------------------------
Irving H. Picard, Securities Investor Protection Act (SIPA)
Trustee for the liquidation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment
Securities LLC (BLMIS) filed a motion on Dec. 22 in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York
seeking approval for an allocation of recoveries to the BLMIS
Customer Fund and an authorization for a fifth pro rata interim
distribution from the Customer Fund to BLMIS customers with
allowed claims.

The fifth pro rata interim distribution will total approximately
$322 million and will bring the amount distributed to eligible
claimants to approximately $7.2 billion, which includes more than
$822.5 million in advances committed to the SIPA Trustee for
distribution to allowed claimants by the Securities Investor
Protection Corporation (SIPC).

"The fifth distribution is yet another important milestone for the
Madoff Recovery Initiative," said Mr. Picard.  "My legal teams
have negotiated important and significant recovery agreements with
several defendants.  That work enables us to move ahead with this
distribution, once we have the approval of the court."

SIPC President and CEO Stephen P. Harbeck said, "The latest
distribution further demonstrates how the BLMIS liquidation --
with the support of SIPC -- is progressing efficiently and
effectively, with customers receiving significant recoveries of
their lost assets even in this most egregious theft.  We not only
applaud the SIPA Trustee and his legal and professional teams
regarding this latest accomplishment, but also look forward to
additional achievements in 2015."

The proposed distribution is a direct result of the ongoing work
of the SIPA Trustee's teams.  BakerHostetler recently reached
settlements with feeder funds Herald/Primeo and Senator.  Windels
Marx reached a settlement with the Blumenfeld defendants.  The
terms of these three recent agreements called for cash payments.
Together, more than $642 million was brought into the BLMIS
Customer Fund through these agreements.  The Blumenfeld settlement
was approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court on November 19,
2014 and the Herald/Primeo and Senator settlements were approved
by the United States Bankruptcy Court on December 17, 2014.

The fifth pro rata interim distribution will result in the return
of 2.487 percent of the allowed claim amount for each individual
account, unless the allowed claim has been fully satisfied.  The
average payment for an allowed claim issued in the fifth
distribution will total approximately $299,900.  The smallest
payment totals $390.96 and the largest payment is $60,873,991.23.

Currently, the SIPA Trustee has allowed 2,547 claims related to
2,213 BLMIS accounts.  Of these accounts, 1,154 accounts will be
fully satisfied following the fifth interim distribution.  All
allowed claims totaling $963,500 or less will be fully satisfied.
The fifth interim distribution, when combined with the four prior
interim distributions, will satisfy up to 48.546 percent of each
customer's allowed claim amount unless the account is fully
satisfied.  In addition, SIPC has been reimbursed for its advances
to accounts which are now fully satisfied as of the fifth interim
distribution.

"The past year or so has been among our most active periods, with
the SIPA Trustee's team of professionals working diligently on a
number of fronts, in and out of the courtroom, using all the legal
tools at our disposal," said David J. Sheehan, Chief Counsel to
the SIPA Trustee.  "Through it all, we remain dedicated to our
primary goal: to recover the maximum amount possible for the
benefit of BLMIS customers with allowed claims."

As of Nov. 30, 2014, the SIPA Trustee has recovered or reached
agreements to recover approximately $10.5 billion since his
appointment in December 2008.  These recoveries exceed similar
efforts related to prior Ponzi scheme recoveries, in terms of
dollar value and percentage of stolen funds recovered.

Ultimately, 100 percent of the SIPA Trustee's recoveries will be
allocated to the Customer Fund for distribution to BLMIS customers
with allowed claims.  Prior distributions by the SIPA Trustee (as
of Nov. 30, 2014) to BLMIS accounts with allowed claims are as
follows:

The first pro rata interim distribution, which commenced on
October 5, 2011, has distributed $605 million, representing 4.602
percent of the allowed claim amount of each individual account,
unless the claim is fully satisfied.

The second pro rata interim distribution, which commenced on
September 19, 2012, has distributed approximately $4.393 billion,
representing 33.556 percent of the allowed claim amount of each
individual account, unless the claim is fully satisfied.

The third pro rata interim distribution, which commenced on
March 29, 2013, has distributed approximately $614 million,
representing 4.721 percent of the allowed claim amount of each
individual account, unless the claim is fully satisfied.

The fourth pro rata interim distribution, which commenced on
May 5, 2014, has distributed approximately $412.8 million,
representing 3.180 percent of each individual account, unless the
claim is fully satisfied.

Mr. Sheehan noted that there are 126 "deemed determined" claims
still subject to litigation.  Once litigation is resolved or
settlements reached, some of these claims may be allowed and would
therefore become eligible for all pro rata distributions to date.
For this potential scenario, as of November 30, 2014, the SIPA
Trustee has reserved approximately $2.225 billion.  Upon final
court approval of the fifth pro rata interim distribution, this
reserve amount will increase to approximately $2.345 billion.  The
ultimate amount of additional allowed claims depends on the
outcome of litigation or negotiation and could add billions of
dollars to the total amount of allowed claims.

Mr. Sheehan also noted that the SIPA Trustee anticipates
recovering additional assets through litigation and settlements.
Final resolution of certain disputes will permit the SIPA Trustee
to further reduce the reserves he is required to maintain,
allowing him to make additional distributions to customers.  Upon
final court approval of the fifth interim distribution, and
incorporating the fifth allocation, the SIPA Trustee will be
required to maintain a reserve of approximately $1.445 billion
pending the resolution of the time-based damages issue, among
other reserves.  As of November 30, 2014, the time-based damages
reserve is approximately $1.372 billion.  The SIPA Trustee will
seek authorization for these further allocations and distributions
upon the recovery of additional funds and the resolution of
significant disputes.

All administrative costs of the SIPA liquidation of Bernard L.
Madoff Investment Securities LLC and its global recovery efforts,
which make distributions to BLMIS customers with allowed claims
possible, are funded by advances to the SIPA Trustee by SIPC.

A hearing on the fifth allocation and distribution motion has been
set for January 15, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. before the United States
Bankruptcy Court.  Upon approval, record holders of allowed claims
as of January 15, 2015 will be eligible to receive payments from
the fifth interim distribution.  The Fifth Customer Fund
Allocation and Distribution Motion can be found on the United
States Bankruptcy Court's Web site at
http://www.nysb.uscourts.gov/Bankr. S.D.N.Y., No. 08-01789 (SMB).
It can also be found on the SIPA Trustee's website along with more
information on overall recoveries to date, each settlement, the
appeal status of a particular settlement, and on many other BLMIS
liquidation issues at http://www.madofftrustee.com

Messrs. Picard and Sheehan would like to thank Seanna Brown and
Heather Wlodek, who worked on the fifth pro rata interim
distribution and its related filings, as well as the legal firms
of BakerHostetler and Windels Marx, and all of the attorneys and
professionals whose work has led to the distribution.  They would
also like to thank Vineet Sehgal and his colleagues at
AlixPartners, as well as Kevin Bell and his colleagues at SIPC,
for their ongoing work and participation in the Madoff Recovery
Initiative distributions.

                    About Bernard L. Madoff

Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC and Bernard L. Madoff
orchestrated the largest Ponzi scheme in history, with losses
topping US$50 billion.  On Dec. 15, 2008, the Honorable Louis A.
Stanton of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of
New York granted the application of the Securities Investor
Protection Corporation for a decree adjudicating that the
customers of BLMIS are in need of the protection afforded by the
Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970.  The District Court's
Protective Order (i) appointed Irving H. Picard, Esq., as trustee
for the liquidation of BLMIS, (ii) appointed Baker & Hostetler LLP
as his counsel, and (iii) removed the SIPA Liquidation proceeding
to the Bankruptcy Court (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Adv. Pro. No. 08-01789)
(Lifland, J.).  Mr. Picard has retained AlixPartners LLP as claims
agent.

On April 13, 2009, former BLMIS clients filed an involuntary
Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition against Bernard Madoff (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. 09-11893).  The petitioning creditors -- Blumenthal &
Associates Florida General Partnership, Martin Rappaport
Charitable Remainder Unitrust, Martin Rappaport, Marc Cherno, and
Steven Morganstern -- assert US$64 million in claims against Mr.
Madoff based on the balances contained in the last statements they
got from BLMIS.

On April 14, 2009, Grant Thornton UK LLP as receiver placed Madoff
Securities International Limited in London under bankruptcy
protection pursuant to Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code
(Bankr. S.D. Fla. 09-16751).

The Chapter 15 case was later transferred to Manhattan.  In June
2009, Judge Lifland approved the consolidation of the Madoff SIPA
proceedings and the bankruptcy case.

Judge Denny Chin of the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of New York on June 29, 2009, sentenced Mr. Madoff to
150 years of life imprisonment for defrauding investors in United
States v. Madoff, No. 09-CR-213 (S.D.N.Y.).

From recoveries in lawsuits coupled with money advanced by SIPC,
Mr. Picard has commenced distributions to victims, with the fourth
and latest batch of distributions done in May 2014.  Distributions
to eligible claimants have totaled almost $6 billion, which
includes $812.2 million in committed advances from the SIPC.  More
than 1,100 victims have already recovered the full principal they
lost in the fraud.

As of May 2014, Mr. Picard has recovered or reached agreements to
recover $9.8 billion since his appointment in December 2008.

BILTMORE INVESTMENTS: Dist. Court Reinstates Stay Against TD Bank
-----------------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Max O. Cogburn, Jr., overturned orders entered by
Bankruptcy Judge George R. Hodges that lifted the automatic stay
in the Chapter 11 case of Biltmore Investments Ltd., allowing TD
Bank, N.A. from taking any action directed at Walter T. McGee, in
state court or otherwise, to seize or sell his shares of stock in
the debtor.

The court finds that "unusual circumstances" exist to justify
extending the automatic stay under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 362(a)(1) to
McGee and prohibiting TD Bank from taking any further action, in
state court or otherwise, to seize and sell Biltmore stock owned
by McGee, Judge Cogburn said.

Mr. McGee is the guarantor of four past-due promissory notes
issued to TD Bank.  Mr. McGee is the president of two North
Carolina companies: Asheville Downtown Holdings, Ltd., and
Biltmore Investments, Ltd. These companies operate a series of
trailer parks in North Carolina and South Carolina. Between 2005
and 2006 these companies executed and delivered a total of four
commercial promissory notes to Carolina First Bank.  TD Bank is
successor by merger to, and is formerly known as, Carolina First
Bank.

All four Notes went into default.  Note 1 and Note 2 matured in
March 2010 and were not paid. Payments for Note 3 and Note 4
ceased after February 2010. In addition, Biltmore Investments
filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Jan. 26, 2011 and Asheville
Downtown filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy on April 1, 2011.

Judge Cogburn directed Biltmore, within 45 days of the order, to
file a motion in Bankruptcy Court to modify its Chapter 11 Plan
consistent with this order. The modified Plan should provide:

     1. that there be there be no cash distributions (other than
routine expenses & remuneration incident to, among other things,
management of Bear Wallow Mobile Home Park and commissions
relative to real estate, business brokerage and consulting
activities) to Walter T. McGee, his assigns, or to any insiders of
Biltmore Investments, LTD. prior to payment in full of all
creditors provided for in the plan;

     2. that there be there be no cash distributions of the funds
being held by Biltmore Investments LTD. as a result of the
settlement of an adversary proceeding, including theD'Anza
Adversary Proceeding discussed in this Order, other than in the
ordinary course of business, to Walter T. McGee, his assigns, or
any insiders of Biltmore Investments, LTD. before payment in full
of all creditors under the plan, unless having first given notice
to creditors of the proposed distribution; and

     3. that Biltmore Investments, Ltd. be prohibited from using
any portion of the settlement proceeds from the D'Anza Adversary
Proceeding outside the ordinary course of business, except by
motion for authority to do so in the Bankruptcy case, with notice
and the opportunity for hearing provided to creditors under the
Plan, and approval by the Bankruptcy Court.

The appellate case is, BILTMORE INVESTMENTS, LTD. Appellant, v. TD
BANK, N.A., Appellee, DOCKET NO. 1:14-CV-00099-MOC (W.D.N.C.).

BINDER & BINDER: Has Interim Authority to Tap U.S. Bank DIP Loan
----------------------------------------------------------------
Binder & Binder - The National Social Security Disability
Advocates (NY), LLC, et al., sought and obtained interim authority
from Judge Robert D. Drain of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York to obtain postpetition senior
secured financing and use the cash collateral of their prepetition
secured lenders.

Binder & Binder ? The National Social Security Disability
Advocates, LLC, is the borrower under a prepetition senior secured
financing facility consisting of a revolving credit facility in
the maximum principal amount of $8 million and a term loan in the
original principal amount of $29 million.  U.S. Bank National
Association and Capital One N.A. are the lenders under the
Prepetition Facility.  As of the Petition Date, there were amounts
outstanding of $6,499,733 under the Prepetition Revolver and
$16,548,500 under the Prepetition Term Loan.

The Prepetition Lenders agreed to provide a postpetition revolving
credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $26
million, subject to reductions.  Interest on the outstanding
balance of the DIP Credit Facility is payable monthly in arrears
at an annual rate of the Base Rate plus 4.25%, calculated each
month on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-
day year.  From and after the occurrence of a default or an event
of default under any of the DIP Loan Documents, a default rate of
interest of an additional 5.0% per annum over the rate otherwise
applicable is payable on demand on the outstanding balance of the
DIP Credit Facility and all other DIP Obligations.

Stellus Capital Investment Corporation, which made a prepetition
unsecured loan to the Debtors in the original principal amount of
$13 million, filed a preliminary objection to the financing
motion, complaining that the motion was filed less than two days
after the Petition Date, without a meaningful opportunity for any
party-in-interest to consider the consequences of the rollup to
unsecured creditors and other parties-in-interest.  Stellus
further complains that rollup should not be permitted unless and
until an estate representative has the opportunity to investigate
the nature, extent and validity of the Prepetition Liens and any
potential defenses or claims against the Prepetition Lenders.

The final hearing will be held on Jan. 29, 2015, at 3:30 p.m.
(Eastern time).  Objections are due Jan. 22.

BINDER & BINDER: Seeks to Reject 24 Leases, Contracts
-----------------------------------------------------
Binder & Binder - The National Social Security Disability
Advocates (NY), LLC, et al., seek authority from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to reject,
as of the Petition Date, 10 unexpired leases of non-residential
real property, and 14 executory contracts and agreements, and
abandon certain de minimis personal property located at the
premises subject to the leases.

The Debtors tell the Court that, on or prior to the Petition Date,
they vacated the offices subject to the leases after determining
that they no longer require the use of those offices.  The Debtors
believe that no value may be derived for their estates through the
assumption and assignment of the leases to third parties, thus,
they seek to reject each of the Leases as of the Petition Date.

The Debtors are also rejecting the agreements under which the
counterparty agreed to provide products and services that were
necessary for the Debtors' operations located at the offices.  As
the Debtors are rejecting the leases, they do not believe that the
agreements provide any benefit to the Debtors or their estates.

A hearing on the request is scheduled for Jan. 7, 2015, at 2:00
p.m. (ET).  Objections are due Dec. 31.

BINDER & BINDER: Has Until Feb. 2 to File Schedules
---------------------------------------------------
Judge Robert D. Drain of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York extended until Feb. 2, 2015, the
deadline for Binder & Binder - The National Social Security
Disability Advocates (NY), LLC, et al., to file their schedules of
assets and liabilities and statements of financial affairs.

As previously reported by The Troubled Company Reporter, the
Debtors submit that the large amount of information that must
be assembled and compiled, the hundreds of employee and
professional hours required for the completion of the Schedules
and Statements and the lack of prejudice to creditors that would
result in such an extension being granted all constitute good and
sufficient cause for granting the relief requested.  In addition,
to ensure that the Debtors' businesses run smoothly through the
Chapter 11 process and maximize the value of the Debtors' estates,
the Debtors' creditors are better served by the Debtors' employees
and principals focusing their efforts and attention upon business
operations rather than burdensome tasks such as compilation of the
Schedules and Statements.

C&O ENTERPRISES: $2,732,959 Judgment Against Debtor Affirmed
------------------------------------------------------------
The Court of Appeals of Louisiana, First Circuit, affirmed a trial
court judgment granting summary judgment in favor of Hancock Bank
of Louisiana and against debtor C&O Enterprises, LLC, in a lawsuit
over a promissory note.

On June 1, 2006, C&O executed a promissory note in favor of
Hancock in the amount of $1,200,000.00 to purchase 1.58 acres of
property on Highway 21, Covington, Louisiana. The promissory note
was secured by a multiple indebtedness mortgage, also dated June
1, 2006, executed by C&O in favor of Hancock.  The mortgage
encumbered property described as 1.58 acres of property on Highway
21, Covington, Louisiana, and also included any and all present
and future buildings, constructions, and improvements now and/or
in the future relating to the property. Further, "indebtedness"
was defined in the mortgage as all present and future loans,
advances, and/or extensions of credit obtained by the mortgagor
from the mortgagee under any and all promissory notes evidencing
such present and/or future loans, including the note dated June 1,
2006 in the principal amount of $1,200,000.

On October 13, 2006, C&O and Hancock executed a construction loan
agreement, whereby Hancock loaned C&O $2,500,000. On the same
date, C&O executed a disbursement request authorization,
specifying the purpose of the loan as to pay off the lot loan and
to pay construction costs and designating the amounts to be
disbursed for each purpose. C&O subsequently executed a promissory
note in favor of Hancock in the amount of $2,512,685.50 on March
20, 2009. However, on June 5, 2009, C&O filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy. C&O's plan of reorganization listed the debt owed to
Hancock and its proposal to repay that debt. An order confirming
the plan of reorganization was signed by the court on December 16,
2010.

In accordance with the Bankruptcy Court's order confirming C&O's
plan of reorganization, C&O executed a replacement promissory note
on March 29, 2011, in favor of Hancock in the amount of
$2,526,909.66. The replacement note was made and given to Hancock
in substitution of and as a replacement for the March 20, 2009
note. The March 29, 2011 promissory note is also secured by the
June 1, 2006 multiple indebtedness mortgage. The replacement note
defines "default" as "fail[ing] to make any payment when due under
this Note." In the event of default, the holder of the note has
the right to accelerate maturity and insist upon immediate payment
in full of the unpaid principal balance then outstanding under the
note, plus interest, together with reasonable attorney's fees,
costs, expenses, and other fees and charges as provided. The
mortgage also defines default, stating that a default under the
note is a default under the mortgage. In the event of default
under the mortgage, the holder of the note has the right to
enforce the mortgage and to cause the sheriff to seize and sell
the property that the mortgage encumbers.

On October 4, 2012, Hancock, as the holder of the note, wrote to
C&O and declared C&O to be in default under the note and demanded
immediate full payment of $2,587,011.76, which included interest,
late fees, and taxes. Thereafter, Hancock filed a verified
petition for foreclosure and money judgment. In its petition,
Hancock sought a money judgment in its favor in the amount of
$2,587,011.76 as of October 3, 2012, with per diem interest
thereon in the amount of $461.86 until paid in full and all other
amounts allowed under the note and the multiple indebtedness
mortgage, including costs, expenses, and attorney's fees. Hancock
also requested that the court enforce the mortgage by foreclosing
on the mortgaged property and issuing an order for a writ of
seizure and sale of the mortgaged property.

C&O answered Hancock's petition, generally denying the allegations
of the petition and asserting affirmative defenses including,
among others, estoppel, contributory negligence, fraud, fraud in
the inducement, breach of contract, discriminatory lending,
predatory lending, bad faith, and negligent misrepresentation
and/or intentional misrepresentation.

Thereafter, Hancock filed a motion for summary judgment,
requesting that the trial court grant summary judgment in its
favor in the amount of $2,732,959.52, plus per diem interest in
the amount of $461.86 from August 15, 2013 until the court's
judgment and legal interest thereafter until paid, as well as
reasonable attorney's fees and costs. Hancock also requested
recognition and enforcement of its rights in and to the multiple
indebtedness mortgage dated June 1, 2006, that C&O made in favor
of Hancock to secure C&O's debt.

On September 11, 2013, C&O filed a reconventional demand,
asserting that Hancock is liable to C&O pursuant to the provisions
of the Louisiana Commercial Code because it is in bad faith for
the making and enforcement of the loan sued upon. Hancock
responded by filing a declinatory exception raising the objection
of lis pendens as to C&O's reconventional demand, asserting that
the demands and allegations in the reconventional demand are
identical to claims asserted by C&O against Hancock in another
action, case number 2012-15419, Division D, wherein C&O seeks
damages and injunctive relief for unfair, predatory, and
discriminatory lending practices.

Following a hearing on Hancock's motion and exception, the trial
court rendered judgment in favor of Hancock, maintaining Hancock's
exception of lis pendens and dismissing, without prejudice, C&O's
reconventional demand. The trial court also granted summary
judgment in favor of Hancock, entering judgment against C&O in the
amount of $2,732,959.52 plus per diem interest of $461.86 from
August 15, 2013 until the date of the court's judgment and legal
interest thereafter until paid as well as Hancock's costs and
reasonable attorney's fees that the court will set at a later
date. In addition, the court recognized and enforced all of
Hancock's rights in and to the multiple indebtedness mortgage
dated June 1, 2006, that C&O made in favor of Hancock to secure
C&O's debt to Hancock, including Hancock's right to cause the
clerk of court for the Parish of St. Tammany to issue a writ of
fieri facias that directs the Sheriff of the Parish of St. Tammany
to seize and set for sale the property that the multiple
indebtedness mortgage encumbers to satisfy in whole or in part
C&O's debt to Hancock. The court further maintained and reserved
Hancock's rights against Kanetha Chau, Osaka 21, LLC, and Osaka
West, Inc., as guarantors of the debt of C&O to Hancock.

Thereafter, C&O filed a motion for new trial, which was denied.
C&O appeals from the trial court's judgment.

"From our review of the record, we find that C&O had a fair
opportunity to conduct discovery in the instant action, yet failed
to do so. Accordingly, we find no abuse of the trial court's
discretion in declining to permit additional discovery and in
granting summary judgment in favor of Hancock," the Appeals Court
said in its Dec. 23 judgment, available at http://is.gd/sod8Lo
from Leagle.com.

The appellate case is, HANCOCK BANK OF LOUISIANA, v. C&O
ENTERPRISES, LLC, No. 2014 CA 0542 (La. App.).


CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT: Merger Would Better Position $18.4B Debt
---------------------------------------------------------------
Chelsey Dulaney, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reported
that Caesars Entertainment Corp. unveiled details of its planned
restructuring after agreeing earlier this month to acquire
affiliate Caesars Acquisition Co. in a stock-for-stock merger that
will better position the $18.4 billion debt load of its largest
unit.

According to the report, Caesars Entertainment Operating Co.,
which owns, operates or manages 44 casinos, will be restructured
as an operating company and a property company, which would be
owned and controlled by a real-estate investment trust.  The
restructuring will also include two leases: one $160-million-a-
year lease for the Caesars Palace Las Vegas facility, and one for
certain other properties, the report related.

                    About Caesars Entertainment

Caesars Entertainment Corp., formerly Harrah's Entertainment Inc.
-- http://www.caesars.com/-- is one of the world's largest casino
companies.  Caesars casino resorts operate under the Caesars,
Bally's, Flamingo, Grand Casinos, Hilton and Paris brand names.
The Company has its corporate headquarters in Las Vegas.

Harrah's announced its re-branding to Caesar's in mid-November
2010.

Caesars Entertainment reported a net loss of $2.93 billion in
2013, as compared with a net loss of $1.50 billion in 2012.  The
Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $24.5 billion in
total assets, $28.20 billion in total liabilities and a
$3.71 billion total deficit.

                           *     *     *

In the April 10, 2014, edition of the TCR, Standard & Poor's
Ratings Services lowered its corporate credit ratings on Las
Vegas-based Caesars Entertainment Corp. (CEC) and wholly owned
subsidiaries, Caesars Entertainment Operating Co. (CEOC) and
Caesars Entertainment Resort Properties (CERP), as well
as the indirectly majority-owned Chester Downs and Marina, to
'CCC-' from 'CCC+'.  The downgrade reflects S&P's expectation that
Caesars' capital structure is unsustainable, and the amount of
cash the company will burn in 2014 and 2015 creates conditions
under which S&P believes a restructuring of some form is
increasingly likely over the near term absent an unanticipated
significantly favorable change in operating performance.

As reported by the TCR on May 1, 2014, Fitch Ratings had
downgraded the Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) of Caesars
Entertainment Corp (CEC) and Caesars Entertainment
Operating Company (CEOC) to 'CC' from 'CCC'.

In May 2014, Moody's Investors Service affirmed the Caa3 corporate
family rating and Caa3-PD probability of default ratings.  The
negative rating outlook reflects Moody's view that CEOC will
pursue a debt restructuring in the next year. Ratings could be
lowered if CEOC does not take steps to address it unsustainable
capital structure. Ratings improvement is not expected unless
there is a significant reduction in CEOC's $18 billion debt load.

As reported by the TCR on Dec. 18, 2014, Fitch Ratings downgraded
the Issuer Default Rating (IDR) of Caesars Entertainment Operating
Company (CEOC) to 'C' from 'CC'.  The downgrade of the IDR to 'C'
reflects CEOC's missed $223 million interest payment to the
holders of the 10% second lien notes that was due December 15.

As reported by the TCR on Dec. 18, 2014, Moody's Investors Service
downgraded the ratings of Caesars Entertainment Operating Company,
including the corporate family rating, to Ca from Caa3.

As reported by the TCR on Dec. 18, 2014, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services lowered its corporate credit rating to 'D' from 'CCC-' on
Caesars Entertainment Operating Co. Inc. (CEOC), a majority-owned
subsidiary of Caesars Entertainment Corp.

"We lowered the rating as a result of the company's decision not
to pay approximately $225 million in interest that was due on
Dec. 15, 2014 on $4.5 billion of 10% second-priority senior
secured notes due 2015 and 2018," said Standard & Poor's credit
analyst Melissa Long.


CAESARS GROWTH: S&P Puts 'B-' CCR on CreditWatch Negative
---------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it placed all ratings on
Caesars Growth Properties Parent LLC (CGP), including its 'B-'
corporate credit rating, on CreditWatch with negative
implications.  Additionally, S&P revised the CreditWatch
implications on the 'CCC+' corporate credit rating on Corner
Investment Propco LLC to negative from positive.

"The CreditWatch listing follows Caesars Acquisition Corp.'s (CAC)
announcement that it has entered into a definitive agreement to
merge with Caesars Entertainment Corp. (CEC), a lower rated entity
that we currently rate 'CCC-' with a negative outlook, in an all-
stock transaction," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Melissa
Long. (CAC is the ultimate parent company of CGP.)

The contemplated merger between CEC and CAC is intended to support
the proposed restructuring of CEC's subsidiary, Caesars
Entertainment Operating Co. (CEOC), which is currently very highly
leveraged and burning cash.  Additionally, S&P believes that
uncertainty remains regarding the outcome of various legal actions
that have been filed by creditors regarding asset transfers and
financing transactions, including the previous sale of assets from
CEOC to CGP.  A court could void certain transactions or pull
additional assets or entities, including CGP, into a bankruptcy
filing as a result of litigation filed by CEOC's second-lien
noteholders.  In the event that S&P believed it was increasingly
likely that a court would void transactions like the sale of
assets to CGP from CEOC or that CGP could be pulled into a
bankruptcy filing, S&P could lower its ratings on CGP in line with
our rating on CEC.

Although the contemplated restructuring of CEOC and the merger
with CAC could eventually position CEC for a higher rating, there
is substantial uncertainty surrounding CEOC's expected mid-January
2015 Chapter 11 filing, notwithstanding the support agreement that
the company and various first-lien creditors have entered into.
Furthermore, S&P is unable to conclude at this point that the
rating on CEC would be higher than its current 'B-' corporate
credit rating on CGP given uncertainties surrounding the post-
restructuring organizational and capital structures of CEC and
CEOC.  The proposed restructuring of CEOC currently includes a
comprehensive financial restructuring plan that will reduce debt
balances and lower interest payments at CEOC.  It will also
include splitting CEOC into an operating company and a property
company.  The planned merger will provide CEC with additional cash
that it can use to satisfy its contribution of up to $1.45 billion
in cash to support the CEOC restructuring, and as currently
contemplated, eliminates the need for CEC to seek additional
financing support.  Additionally, the CAC assets will bolster the
value of the guarantee that CEC plans to provide for the
restructured CEOC obligations, specifically the operating
company's monetary obligations to the property company under the
proposed lease.

In resolving the CreditWatch listing, S&P will focus on CEC's
progress toward completing a restructuring at CEOC and the merger
with CAC, as well as analyze the post-emergence organizational and
capital structure once a restructuring proposal has been
finalized.  S&P will also monitor and analyze the risks related to
various lawsuits that have been filed regarding various asset
transfers and financing transactions, including the sale of assets
from CEOC to CGP.  In the event that S&P felt it was increasingly
likely that a court would void transactions like the sale of
assets to CGP from CEOC or that S&P believed CGP could be pulled
into a bankruptcy filing, S&P could lower its ratings on CGP in
line with its rating on CEC.

CLINICA REAL: State Farm Opposes Bankruptcy Estimation
------------------------------------------------------
State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company and State Farm Fire
& Casualty Company, creditors and parties-in-interest, objected to
Clinica Real, LLC, and Keith Michael Stone's renewed motion for
claim estimation.

According to SFIC, the Court has already ruled that the SFIC claim
must be estimated for the purpose of voting on the Debtors' Plan.
SFIC urged the Court remain on the path already chosen.  If the
Court issues findings of fact or conclusions of law in connection
with a Section 502(c) estimation, SFIC may be prejudiced in other
proceedings; namely, the Adversary and the State Court Litigation,
both of which are still ongoing.

The Debtor countered that SFIC is not entitled to a jury trial on
the allowance of its claims against the Debtors.

million in total assets, $1.67 million in total liabilities and a

2014, which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern.  The Company will need significant
funding to continue operations and increase development through
the next fiscal year.  The timing and amount of capital
requirements will depend on a number of factors, including demand
for products and services and the availability of opportunities

CWS ENTERPRISES: Appeal Can Proceed Without Supersedeas Bond
------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of California
entered an order on Sept. 17, 2014, and a judgment on September
30, 2014, in an appeal from the bankruptcy court overseeing the
case of CWS Enterprises, Inc.  The debtor has commenced an appeal
of the Order and Judgment to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

Under the Third Amended Plan of Reorganization confirmed in CWS's
case, claimant Spiller McProud maintains deeds of trust on
multiple properties owned by CWS to secure any payment owing to
Spiller following resolution of appeals relating to its claim.
The Plan further provides:

"In the event the Class 2.6.b Claimant [Spiller] prevails on its
appeal or appeals or the final allowed claim is established by
compromise, and the final allowed amount of its claim is
determined to be in excess of the amount of the Interim Payment,
the excess amount shall bear interest at 4.0% per annum from the
Petition Date until paid in full. Trustee/Plan Administrator shall
use his best efforts to pay in full the excess amount plus
interest within 6 months following entry of the order finally
determining the Class 2.6.b Allowed Claim."

CWS and Charles Siller have filed a motion for stay pending
appeal, without the posting of a supersedeas bond, of the Order
and Judgment. They argued in the motion that the Deeds of Trust
were adequate security in lieu of a bond. Spiller opposed the
motions, expressing its preference for a more liquid form of
security.

In a stipulation signed off by District Judge Kimberly J. Mueller
and available at http://is.gd/JCMYGdfrom Leagle.com, the parties
agree that the Order and Judgment shall be stayed pending appeal,
without the posting of a supersedeas bond, on these conditions:

     1. In the event the final resolution of the appeal (and any
remand) involves further payment to Spiller on its claim in the
Bankruptcy Case, the interest on such payment shall increase,
effective September 17, 2014, from 4% (as provided in the Plan) to
7% per annum.

     2. CWS shall maintain $3 million as security for payment of
any sums due to Spiller in either of the following forms (or in
combination, provided that the total amount of such security shall
be $3 million): (a) available borrowing under its existing line of
credit, the limit of which is being increased from $2.5 million to
more than $3 million), and/or (b) cash in a blocked account. As an
example, if CWS deposits $500,000 in a blocked account, its
obligation to maintain available borrowing under its line of
credit shall be reduced to $2.5 million. Spiller will cooperate
with CWS in establishing any such blocked account. If such an
account is opened, CWS will provide account statements on a
quarterly basis to Spiller.

     3. At such time as CWS confirms to Spiller that it has $3
million in security through either or both of the forms described
above, Spiller will reconvey the Deeds of Trust to CWS. In the
event any of the properties encumbered by the Deeds of Trust are
required as security by CWS's lender for the increased line of
credit, Spiller will cooperate with CWS to facilitate the transfer
of such security.  CWS will establish such $3 million in security
by Jan. 30, 2015.

     4. CWS will provide quarterly financial statements to
Spiller.

     5. Upon final entry of any order, following all appeals, that
CWS must make additional payment on Spiller's claim in the
Bankruptcy Case, such payment shall be made within 30 days of such
order.

The case before the District Court is, In Re CWS Enterprises,
Inc., a California Corporation, Debtor, Spiller McProud,
Appellant, v. CWS Enterprises, Inc., a California Corporation,
David D. Flemmer, Chapter 11 Trustee, and Charles W. Siller,
Appellees.  And consolidated appeals and cross-appeals United
States District Court, E.D. California, Case No. Civ
S-12-0142 KJM (E.D. Cal.).

The bankruptcy case is, In re CWS Enterprises, Inc., Case No.
09-26849-C-11 (Bankr. E.D. Cal.).

DYNAVOX INC: Court Confirms Ch. 11 Liquidation Plan
---------------------------------------------------
Judge Peter J. Walsh of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District
of Delaware on Dec. 22, 2014, confirmed the first amended joint
plan of liquidation of Dynavox Inc., and its debtor affiliates.

The Confirmation Order also constitutes a final decree closing the
cases of DynaVox Systems Holdings LLC (Case No. 14-10790) and
DynaVox Intermediate LLC (Case No. 14-10785) as of Dec. 22.

Pursuant to the Plan, no distributions will be made to Vestar
Capital Partners, Park Avenue Equity Partners, L.P., or the other
parties to the Tax Receivable Agreement dated April 21, 2010,
between Dynavox Inc., Systems Holdings, and members holding
membership interests in Systems Holdings, and all of the Debtors'
obligations, if any, under the TRA will be extinguished on the
Effective Date.

To resolve the Texas Comptroller's objection, the Confirmation
Order provides that the Debtors and the Liquidating Estates will
timely file any tax returns with, and will pay all taxes due, to
the State of Texas, and will continue to timely file those returns
and pay all those taxes due to the State of Texas until no longer
required to do so pursuant to Texas law.  The failure to make a
payment when due under the Plan will constitute an event of
default.

As previously reported by The Troubled Company Reporter, the
Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court a plan and accompanying
disclosure statement following the sale of substantially all of
their assets to Tobii Technology AB for $18 million.  All classes
of claims under the Plan are unimpaired and holders of the claims
are deemed to accept the treatment of their claims.  A full-text
copy of the First Amended Disclosure Statement dated Nov. 17,
2014, is available at:

           http://bankrupt.com/misc/DYNAVOXds1117.pdf

Bill Rochelle and Sherri Toub, bankruptcy columnists for Bloomberg

everyone is paid in full.  There are about $150,000 of unsecured
claims to be paid in full, the Bloomberg report said.

                         About Dynavox Inc.

DynaVox Intermediate LLC filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition
(Bankr. D. Del. Case No. 14-10785) on April 6, 2014.  Two of its
affiliates, DynaVox Inc. and DynaVox Systems Holdings LLC, also
filed for bankruptcy (Case Nos. 14-10791 and 14-10790) the
following day.  The Debtors estimated assets and debts of at least

that the Bankruptcy Court approved the sale of DynaVox Inc.'s
business for $18 million to Tobii Technology AB from Danderyd,

EAGLE BULK: Has $45.9-Mil. Net Loss in Sept. 30 Quarter
-------------------------------------------------------
Eagle Bulk Shipping Inc. filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, disclosing
a net loss of $45.86 million on $29.85 million of revenues for the
three months ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared with a net loss of
$37.63 million on $38.98 million of revenues for the same period
in 2013.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $1.67
billion in total assets, $1.25 billion in total liabilities and
stockholders' equity of $418.41 million.

On March 19, 2014, the Company received waivers for the violation
of the maximum leverage ratio covenant under its Credit Agreement
as of Dec. 31, 2013 and the expected violation of the maximum
leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio covenants at
March 31, 2014 (as amended, the "Waivers").  The Waivers were
extended through August 5, 2014, subject to certain conditions and
the satisfaction of certain milestones.  Given the uncertainty as
to whether the Company would be able to comply with the terms of
the Waivers within the time frames provided, the Company concluded
that there was substantial doubt about its ability to continue as
a going concern until such time the Company was able to
demonstrate that it had sufficient cash flows to meet its ongoing
needs.  To address this risk of being able to continue as a going
concern, the Company undertook negotiations with its lenders to
provide longer term covenant relief or to restructure its balance
sheet and capital structure.

ECOTALITY INC: Wins Confirmation of Reorganization Plan
-------------------------------------------------------
The Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming Electric
Transportation Engineering Corporation, doing business as
Ecotality North America, et al.'s Joint Plan of Reorganization.
The Court also approved the adequacy of the information in the
Disclosure Statement.

The Court approved the appointment of Carolyn Johnsen as the
Liquidating Trustee.

The Debtors stated that they commenced the cases with the primary
objective of effectuating an expedited sale of substantially all
of their assets.  After liquidating substantially all of their
assets though a Court-approved auction, the Debtors and their
advisors have focused primarily on winding down the estates and
evaluating various plan structures to determine the best vehicle
for maximizing creditor recoveries.

The Debtors have secured commitments from the Plan Contributor to
make a payment for the benefit of creditors in an amount equal to
$275,000, including (i) $75,000 that has already been paid to the
estates by the Plan Contributor to cover certain professional fees
incurred by the estates in connection with the Plan process and
(ii) $200,000 that, for the avoidance of doubt, has not been and
is to be paid to the Estates by the Plan Contributor as a
condition to the effectiveness of the Plan.  In addition, subject
to certain disclosed risks, fifty percent of any tax benefits
realized by Reorganized ECOtality on account of certain tax
attributes of the Debtors will inure to the benefit of Qualified
Creditor Stock Beneficiaries in the form of cash paid to the Stock
Trust.  As an additional contribution, an affiliate of the Plan
Contributor, Car Charging Group, Inc., has agreed to provide the
Stock Trust, for the benefit of qualified holders of Allowed
General Unsecured Claims, preferred stock in CCGI convertible into
CCGI common stock, which stock upon conversion would have a market
value of $725,000, subject to certain disclosed risks.

The Plan also provides for the creation of the Liquidating Trust
to monetize the Remaining Assets and Causes of Action for the
benefit of Qualified Creditor Stock Beneficiaries, as had been
proposed in the Debtors' contemplated plan of liquidation.

                             Objections

Global LearnNet Ltd., and Valley 2010 Investment, LLC, objected to
the Debtors' Joint Disclosure Statement and Joint Chapter 11 Plan,
noting that it is clear that the Amended Plan is a tax driven plan
that is also designed to try to obtain a discharge when the
Debtors are not entitled to discharge provisions.   The Amended
Plan contains improper discharge, release and exculpation
provisions that may affect claims against third parties and
insurance coverage.

The U.S. Trustee also objected to the Plan on grounds that it
contains provisions providing releases and exculpation of non-
debtors which do not appear to benefit the estates.

BMO Harris Bank N.A. in its capacity as personal representative of
the estate of C. Timothy Caldwell, objected to the Plan, stating
that the Plan fails to meet the requirements for confirmation with
regard to the secured claim of BMO.

2013, with plans to sell the business at an auction.

The cases are assigned to Chief Judge Randolph J. Haines.  The
Debtors' lead counsel are Charles R. Gibbs, Esq., at Akin Gump
Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, in Dallas, Texas; and David P. Simonds,
Esq., and Arun Kurichety, Esq., at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld
LLP, in Los Angeles, California.  The Debtors' local counsel is
Jared G. Parker, Esq., at Parker Schwartz, PLLC, in Phoenix,
Arizona.  FTI Consulting, Inc. serves as the Debtors' crisis
manager and financial advisor.  The Debtors' claims and noticing
agent is Kurtzman Carson Consultants LLC.

Electric Transportation estimated assets of $10 million to $50
million and debt of $100 million to $500 million.  Unlike most
companies in bankruptcy, Ecotality has no secured debt.  It simply
ran out of money.  There's $5 million owing on convertible notes,
plus liability on leases.  Part of pre-bankruptcy financing took
the form of a $100 million cost-sharing grant from the U.S. Energy
Department.  In view of the San Francisco-based company's
financial problems, the government cut off the grant when $84.8
million had been drawn.

On Sept. 24, 2013, the Office of the United States Trustee for
Region 14 appointed a committee of unsecured creditors.

In October 2013, the bankruptcy judge cleared Ecotality to sell
most of the business to Car Charging Group Inc. for $3.3 million.
Two other buyers purchased other assets for $1 million in total.

ENVISION SOLAR: Expects Significant Losses to Continue
------------------------------------------------------
Envision Solar International, Inc., filed with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission an amendment to its quarterly report on
Form 10-Q, disclosing a net loss of $556,000 on $238,000 of
revenues for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared with
a net loss of $324,000 on $80,000 of revenues for the same period
last year.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2014, showed $1.36 million
in total assets, $2.39 million in total liabilities and total
stockholders' deficit of $1.03 million.

For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2014, the Company had net
losses of $2.47 million.  Additionally, at Sept. 30, 2014, the
Company had a working capital deficit of $1.13 million and an
accumulated deficit of $30.09 million.  These factors raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.  The Company has incurred significant losses from
operations, and such losses are expected to continue, according to
the regulatory filing.

FCC HOLDINGS: Files Ch. 11 Liquidating Plan, Disclosures
--------------------------------------------------------
FCC Holdings, Inc., et al., on Dec. 23, 2014, filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware a joint plan of
orderly liquidation and accompanying disclosure statement, which
impair all classes of claim except for secured claims.

On September 22, 2014, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Purchase
Agreement by and between the Debtors and IEC Corporation.  The
Sale Order only approved the postpetition transactions and the
assignment of executory contracts and unexpired leases in
connection with those transactions; it did not approve the Step 1
Transactions or the transaction with Premier Education Group, L.P.
Because the Debtors did not receive the requisite response from
the Department of Education by Aug. 29, 2014, the Debtors were
forced to close down the Anthem Schools.

The Plan also embodies a settlement agreement by and between the
Debtors, Bank of Montreal, as agent on behalf of the Lenders, IEC
and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors over the
resolution of the cases.  In particular, the Debtors, the Agent on
behalf of the Lenders, IEC and the Committee have agreed to the
releases of claims and other liabilities set forth in the Plan and
in the Final Cash Collateral Order.  Further, the Debtors, the
Agent on behalf of the Lenders, IEC and the Committee have agreed
that (i) IEC will fund $100,000 to a liquidating trust, and (ii)
IEC will acquire any and all potential preference actions against
non-insiders under Section 544 and 547 of the Bankruptcy Code, and
will covenant not to pursue those actions.

A hearing on the approval of the Disclosure Statement is scheduled
on Jan. 9, 2015, at 11:00 a.m. (prevailing Eastern Time).
Objections, if any, are due on or before Jan. 22.

protection (Bankr. D. Del. Lead Case No. 14-11987) on Aug. 25,
2014.

Headquartered in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, FCC and its affiliates
provide quality postsecondary education in fourteen states.  The
FCC schools were started by David Knobel in 1994 in Fort
Lauderdale, Florida, and, as of the bankruptcy filing, are owned
by Greenhill Capital Partners.

Prior to the Petition Date, the Company, which currently operates
under the name "Anthem Education," had three sets of schools --
the 14 Florida Career College schools; the 22 Anthem Education
schools; and the 5 US Colleges schools.

The Debtors' outstanding secured obligations are $49,000,000, plus
interest and fees, comprised of: Tranche A Loans of $18.6 million,
Tranche B Loans of $29.1 million, and existing letters of credit
of $1.39 million.  The Debtors also have unsecured debt of

FCC HOLDINGS: Seeks March 23 Extension of Plan Filing Date
----------------------------------------------------------
FCC Holdings, Inc., et al., ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware to extend their exclusive plan filing period
by 90 days, through and including March 23, 2015, and their
exclusive solicitation period, through and including May 22, 2015.

According to the Debtors, ample cause exists to extend their
exclusive periods given that during the pendency of their
bankruptcy cases they have worked diligently to transition into
Chapter 11, obtain financing, administer their estates, close the
sale of their assets, and negotiate the terms of a liquidating
plan with its primary creditor constituencies.  The Debtors tell
the Court that they have filed a proposed disclosure statement and
liquidating Chapter 11 plan, which disclosure statement they
intend to schedule for a hearing in January 2015.

A hearing on the extension request is scheduled for Jan. 29, 2015,
at 11:00 a.m.  Objections are due Jan. 22.

FCC HOLDINGS: Obtains Final Authority to Use Cash Collateral
------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Christopher S. Sontchi of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware gave FCC Holdings, Inc., et al., final
authority to use cash collateral securing their prepetition
indebtedness.

As previously reported by the Troubled Company Reporter, the
Debtors; ETC, Edutech, High-Tech Institute Holdings, Inc., and
High-Tech Institute, Inc. as guarantors (guarantors); Bank of
Montreal as administrative agent (agent) and other lenders party
thereto; were party to that certain credit agreement, dated as of
Nov. 2, 2012, as amended.

The Debtors have represented that prior to the Petition Date, they
are obligated to the Term A Lenders in the principal amount of
$18,578,846, plus interest and fees, and obligated to the Term B
Lenders in the approximate amount of $29,056,429, plus interest
and fees.  In the Interim Cash Collateral Order, the Debtors have
stipulated and agreed that, as of the Petition Date, they were
indebted to the Lenders in the aggregate principal amount of
$50,084,922.  Bank of Montreal serves as agent for the Term A
Lenders.

The Debtors would use cash collateral to pay (i) costs and
expenses of administration of the cases; (ii) operate the other
acquired campuses; and (iii) satisfy other costs and expenses
provided for in the budget.

As adequate protection from any diminution in value of the
lenders' collateral, the Debtors will grant the lenders
replacement liens on all of the Debtors' prepetition and
postpetition assets; a superpriority administrative expense claims
status, subject to carve out on certain expenses.

FIAT CHRYSLER: Recalls 67,000 Pickup Trucks
-------------------------------------------
The Associated Press reported that Fiat Chrysler is recalling
about 67,000 model year 2006 and 2007 pickups because of a problem
that could prevent the cars from starting, or cause them to move
when the ignition key is turned.

According to the report, the company is recalling Dodge Dakota,
Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, 3500 and Mitsubishi Raider pickups that were
made between July 2005 and June 2006.  Nearly 55,000 of them are
in the U.S, the report said.

                      About Fiat Chrysler

Chrysler Group LLC, formed in 2009 from a global strategic
alliance with Fiat Group, produces Chrysler, Jeep(R), Dodge, Ram
Truck, Mopar(R) and Global Electric Motorcars (GEM) brand vehicles
and products.  Headquartered in Auburn Hills, Michigan, Chrysler
Group LLC's product lineup features some of the world's most
recognizable vehicles, including the Chrysler 300, Jeep Wrangler
and Ram Truck.  Fiat will contribute world-class technology,
platforms and powertrains for small- and medium-sized cars,
allowing Chrysler Group to offer an expanded product line
including environmentally friendly vehicles.

Chrysler LLC and 24 affiliates on April 30, 2009, sought Chapter
11 protection from creditors (Bankr. S.D.N.Y (Mega-case), Lead
Case No. 09-50002).  The U.S. and Canadian governments provided
Chrysler LLC with $4.5 billion to finance its bankruptcy case.

In connection with the bankruptcy filing, Chrysler reached an
agreement to sell all assets to an alliance between Chrysler and
Italian automobile manufacturer Fiat.  Under the terms approved by
the Bankruptcy Court, the company formerly known as Chrysler LLC
in June 2009, formally sold substantially all of its assets to the
new company, named Chrysler Group LLC.

In January 2014, the American car manufacturer officially became
100% Italian when Fiat Spa completed its deal to purchase the 40%
it did not already own of Chrysler.  Fiat has shared ownership of
Chrysler with the health care fund of the United Automobile
Workers unions since Chrysler emerged from bankruptcy in 209.

Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its ratings on U.S.-
based auto manufacturer Chrysler Group LLC, including the
corporate credit rating to 'BB-' from 'B+' in mid-January 2014.
The outlook is stable.


FIRST NIAGARA: S&P Lowers Subordinated Debt Rating to 'BB+'
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it lowered its issuer
credit rating on First Niagara Financial Group Inc. to 'BBB-' from
'BBB' and its rating on First Niagara Bank to 'BBB' from 'BBB+'.
At the same time, S&P removed the ratings from CreditWatch, where
they were placed with negative implications on Oct. 24, 2014.  The
outlook is stable.  In addition, S&P lowered the senior unsecured
rating to 'BBB-' from 'BBB', the subordinated debt rating to 'BB+'
from 'BBB-', and the preferred stock rating to 'BB-' from 'BB'.
S&P also removed all of the issue-level ratings from CreditWatch
negative.

"The rating action reflects our view that First Niagara Financial
Group's past aggressive acquisition strategy has led to senior
management changes in the past year accompanied by a shift in
strategy, a weaker capital position, and somewhat constrained
financial flexibility relative to peers," said Standard & Poor's
credit analyst Cathy Mattson.  "We view the company's high
leverage, its heightened growth in relatively new product types,
and the higher credit risk of its securities portfolio as
weakening its risk position.  Moreover, we view the company's
large third-quarter GAAP loss, which will lead to a loss for full-
year 2014, as somewhat limiting its financial flexibility."

"We view the company's tangible common equity (TCE) to tangible
assets of 6.37% as relatively weak compared with peers.  Although
TCE has grown in the past two years since it fell dramatically
following the 2012 acquisition of upstate New York branches of
HSBC, the pace of capital growth has been slower than we expected
and, in our opinion, leaves the company with less of a cushion
should unexpected problems arise in its loan or securities
portfolio or in other business areas.  The company's regulatory
capital ratios also lag those of peers, in our view.  Although we
view the company's credit quality track record as strong, and we
believe asset quality measures will continue to compare well with
peers', a large proportion of loan growth in recent years has been
in relatively newer products such as indirect automobile lending,
which we believe leaves the company more susceptible to
unanticipated credit deterioration.  In addition, we view the
company's securities portfolio, which contains a large proportion
of collateralized loan obligations, as more credit sensitive than
at other regional banks," S&P said.

"The company reported a third-quarter loss following a $1.1
billion goodwill impairment charge and the establishment of a $45
million reserve connected to a self-identified process issue
related to certain customer deposit accounts.  Although the
goodwill impairment was a non-cash charge and does not affect our
assessment of the company's tangible capital position, it will
require management to seek regulatory approval to upstream
dividends from the bank to the holding company and to pay
dividends on its common and preferred stock.  We expect the
company to receive such approval, as it did in third-quarter 2014.
Nevertheless, we view this as a potential constraint on the
company's financial flexibility.  In addition, we believe
management has taken significant steps to identify, contain, and
remediate the process issue.  However, if additional process
weaknesses are identified and significant new charges incurred, we
would view this as a negative factor in our ratings," S&P added.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that the company will
continue to grow loans organically within its current footprint at
a measured pace, maintain good credit quality measures, slowly
rebuild tangible capital, and effectively remediate the process
issue that led to a $45 million third-quarter charge.  However, if
additional process weaknesses are identified and significant new
charges incurred, if the company does not rebuild its tangible
common equity position, or if we believe the company's risk-
adjusted capital (RAC) ratio will fall below 7% on an ongoing
basis, we could lower the ratings.  We view a positive rating
action in the next two years as unlikely," S&P noted.


FTS INTERNATIONAL: S&P Revises Outlook to Negative; Keeps 'B' CCR
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, on Dec. 22, 2014, took rating
actions on several U.S. oil and gas oilfield services (OFS)
companies after completing a review of the sector.  The review
follows a precipitous and severe decline in oil prices that will
lead to meaningful reductions to exploration and production (E&P)
capital spending in 2015 and 2016.  S&P believes, on average,
capital spending for E&P could be down approximately 25%,
affecting OFS companies' top lines as well as margins.  Lower
spending will affect some companies more than others, but all
companies will face weaker credit protection measures.  S&P
expects weaker credit protection measures over the next 12-24
months.

S&P has taken actions on these companies:

   -- S&P is placing its 'BBB-' corporate credit rating on
      Weatherford International PLC and all ratings on its debt on
      CreditWatch with negative implications.  The CreditWatch
      listing reflects the possibility that weakening demand and
      heightened price competition could undermine the benefits of
      the company's recent extensive cost cutting and deleveraging
      actions.  As part of S&P's review, it will assess additional
      measures the company plans to pursue in the face of
      deteriorating market conditions.

   -- S&P is lowering its corporate credit rating on Noble Corp.
      to 'BBB' from 'BBB+' and removing the rating from
      CreditWatch, where it placed it with negative implications
      on Oct. 19, 2014.  The outlook is stable.  The downgrade
      reflects weaker credit measures resulting from S&P's lower
      estimates for day-rates and utilization, particularly in the
      mid-water asset category, where Noble has a significant
      concentration.  Most of its rigs in this category have
      contracts rolling off in the next 12 to 18 months, further
      intensifying re-contracting risk amid a declining commodity
      price environment.  Furthermore, S&P is removing the
      "favorable" rating analysis as a result of a more aggressive
      financial policy due to the company's recently announced
      sizable share repurchase authorization.

   -- S&P is affirming its 'BBB' corporate credit and unsecured
      debt ratings on Nabors Industries Ltd., as well as the
      company's 'A-2' short-term commercial paper rating, but
      revising the outlook to negative from stable.  The outlook
      revision reflects S&P's revised forecast and its more
      pessimistic outlook for 2015 and 2016, as well as greater
      uncertainty surrounding its base-case forecast in light of
      very difficult operating conditions given recent crude oil
      price declines.  S&P expects that reduced demand, lower
      levels of drilling activity, and heightened competition in
      the onshore rig market will increase re-contracting risk
      over the next two years, resulting in downward pressure on
      day-rates, and lower utilization.  S&P expects profitability
      and credit measures will be weaker than previously expected,
      including funds from operations (FFO) to total debt to range
      between 30% and 35% over the next year and weakening further
      in 2016, compared with S&P's earlier expectation for FFO to
      total debt to generally range between 40% and 45% over the
      next two years.

   -- S&P is lowering its corporate credit rating on Hercules
      Offshore Inc. to 'B-' from 'B'.  The outlook is stable.  The
      downgrade reflects S&P's estimate for increased leverage as
      a result of lower day-rates and utilization for the
      company's offshore rigs, both in the company's Domestic
      Offshore and International Offshore segments.  S&P's
      estimates of lower utilization and day-rates are a result of
      S&P's expectation of decreased offshore drilling given lower
      oil prices.  S&P now expects FFO to debt to be below 12% and
      debt to EBITDA to exceed 5x in 2015.

   -- S&P is revising its rating outlook on Utex Industries Inc.
      to negative from stable and affirming its 'B' corporate
      credit rating on the company.  The negative outlook reflects
      S&P's expectation that the company's leverage could exceed
      7.5x in 2015 due to E&P company capital spending reductions
      and declining demand for oilfield services following the
      significant drop in crude oil prices and S&P's revised crude
      oil pricing expectations for 2015 and beyond.

   -- S&P is lowering its rating on Seventy Seven Energy to 'B+'
      from 'BB-'.  The outlook is negative.  The downgrade
      reflects S&P's estimate for increased leverage as a result
      of the projected slowdown in demand for land-based oilfield
      services, driven by S&P's reduced oil price deck
      assumptions, as well as S&P's revised assessment of the
      company's business risk now that the company's contracts
      with former parent Chesapeake Energy are more market based.

   -- S&P is revising its rating outlook on FTS International Inc.
      to negative from stable and affirming its 'B' corporate
      credit rating on the company.  The outlook revision reflects
      S&P's expectation that credit measures will weaken due to a
      projected slowdown in demand for fracking services and a
      drop in EBITDA margins, driven by our reduced oil price deck
      assumptions.  However, the company's liquidity remains
      "strong."

GLOBAL GEOPHYSICAL: Authorized to Enter into Amended Cash Use Deal
------------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Richard S. Schmidt authorized Autoseis,
Inc., et al., to enter into an amended cash collateral agreement
with Bank of America.

The Court order also granted the Debtors' motion clarifying its
order authorizing the Debtors to (1) obtain performance bonds,
sureties, letters of credit, or similar securities up to
$5 million; and (2) open an account and establish a corporate
credit card program with Bank of America.

As reported in the TCR on July 28, 2014, the Debtors, in their
application, stated that as routine in their industry, the Debtors
obtain new work through competitive bidding on contracts offered
by potential customers.  In addition to offering competitive
pricing terms and superior service, the Debtors are often required
to provide a letter of credit, surety, performance bond, or
similar security as a condition of submitting a bid.  The Debtors
regularly obtained such forms of financial assurance prepetition.

In this relation, the Debtors sought Court approval to continue
the practice on a postpetition basis as a way to manage and grow
their businesses flexibly and efficiently.

Debtor Global Geophysical Services, Inc., the pledgor, Bank of
America, N.A., as collateral agent, for itself, FIA Card Services,
N.A. and any other subsidiaries or affiliates of Bank of America
Corporation and its successors and assigns, entered into a
Treasury Management Services Cash Collateral Assignment, Security
and Control Agreement on June 13, 2014, extending indebtedness to
the Debtors, and Bank of America, N.A., as depository under the
Account.

Pursuant to the agreement, among other things:

   1. the pledgor will deposit $160,000 into the account on the
Effective Date;

   2. the pledgor agrees that it will at all times maintain funds
in the account at least equal to $160,000, or such other amount as
the secured party may from time to time in its sole discretion
determine, based upon the amount and types of indebtedness and the
creditworthiness of the Debtors;

   3. the pledgor will deposit any required additional funds in
the account within three business days of any notice by the
secured party to do so; and

   4. requiring or permitting funds in the account does not
constitute a commitment by the secured party to extend credit to
the Debtor.

            About Global Geophysical, Autoseis et al.

Global Geophysical Services Inc., a provider of seismic data for
the oil and gas drilling industry, sought bankruptcy protection,
intending to reorganize on its own with additional capital or
explore a sale or other transaction.

Based in Missouri City, Texas, Global Geophysical disclosed assets
of $468.7 million and liabilities totaling $407.3 million as of
Sept. 30, 2013.  Liabilities include $81.8 million on a secured
term loan owing to TPG Specialty Lending Inc. and Tennenbaum
Capital Partners LLC.  TPG is the lenders' agent.  Global also
owes $250 million on two issues of 10.5 percent senior unsecured
notes, with Bank of New York Mellon Trust Co. as indenture
trustee.

Global Geophysical and five affiliates, including Autoseis, Inc.
(lead debtor), filed Chapter 11 petitions in Corpus Christi, Texas
(Bankr. S.D. Tex. Lead Case No. 14-20130) on March 25, 2014.

The Debtors are represented by C. Luckey McDowell, Esq., Omar
Alaniz, Esq., and Ian E. Roberts, Esq., at Baker Botts, LLP, in

GLOBAL GEOPHYSICAL: Plan Confirmation Hearing Adjourned
-------------------------------------------------------
Judge Richard S. Schmidt adjourned to a date to be determined the
hearing to consider the confirmation of Autoseis, Inc., et al.'s
Joint Plan of Reorganization.  The Debtors will file and serve
notice of the confirmation hearing ten days before the hearing is
scheduled to occur.

The Plan is premised upon a backstop conversion commitment
agreement negotiated with an ad hoc group of Senior Noteholders,
which holds approximately 57% of the Senior Notes and
substantially all of the Company's $151.9 million DIP Loan, and
the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors.  The Ad Hoc Group
will convert up to $68.1 million of their debt into equity.

The restructuring is predicated on an enterprise value for the
Reorganized Debtors of $190 million.  The Backstop Conversion
Commitment Agreement provides the Debtors the opportunity to
engage in a market test, which may result in a transaction that
implies a higher Restructuring Enterprise Value.  In particular,
the Backstop Conversion Commitment Agreement allows the Debtors to
implement a competitive sale or plan-sponsor selection process.

Under those procedures, the Debtors will solicit a binding
commitment from an entity of sufficient financial means to sponsor
a Chapter 11 plan that provides the Company with additional
capital, provides for the purchase of part or all of the Company,
or undertakes any other restructuring, provided the proposal:

   (i) provides for payment of the DIP Loan Claims in full in cash
       on the Effective Date of any plan, as well as payment of
       the Termination Payment and Expense Reimbursement;

  (ii) is based on a higher implied enterprise value than the sum
       of the Restructuring Enterprise Value, the Minimum Overbid
       Increment, the Termination Payment, and the Expense
       Reimbursement;

(iii) is higher and better in all material respects when viewed
       as a whole, and given the facts and circumstances of these
       Chapter 11 Cases, than the restructuring proposed in the
       Plan; and

  (iv) can be consummated no later than Feb. 27, 2015.

The $200 million in 10.5 percent senior unsecured notes due 2017
last traded on Oct. 31 for 4.798 cents on the dollar, Bill

News, reported citing Trace, the bond-price reporting system of

GRUBB & ELLIS: NY Court Rules on BGC Partners Suit v. Avison Young
------------------------------------------------------------------
BGC Partners, Inc. and its indirect subsidiary, G & E Acquisition
Company, LLC -- which acquired various assets and causes of action
of Grubb & Ellis Company, a real estate brokerage company -- sued
a competing brokerage company, Avison Young (Canada) Inc. and its
United States affiliates, alleging conspiracy to unlawfully loot
the assets of Grubb & Ellis, tortious interference with
contractual relationships, tortious interference with prospective
business relationships, theft of trade secrets, and aiding and
abetting breach of fiduciary duty.  Specifically, BGC alleges that
AY-Canada, in furtherance of an "illegal scheme to loot Grubb &
Ellis," subverted the automatic stay and the bankruptcy process by
"steal[ing] as many of [G & E's] assets -- including commissions,
contracts, offices, trade secrets and personnel -- as possible."
The AY defendants move to dismiss plaintiffs' Amended Complaint in
its entirety pursuant to CPLR 3211 (a) (3) and (7). All of the
defendants, with the exception of Avison Young-New York, likewise
move to dismiss pursuant to CPLR 3211 (a) (8).

The Supreme Court, New York County, ruled that:

Young - Chicago, LLC; Avison Young - New England, LLC; Avison
Young - Atlanta, LLC; Avison Young - Southern California, LTD.;
Avison Young - Pittsburgh, LLC; and Avison Young - Texas, LLC.
The remaining claims are severed.

     2. The issue of personal jurisdiction over defendants Avison
Young (Canada) Inc. and Avison Young (USA) Inc., including
supervision of CPLR 3211 (d) discovery with respect to these
defendants, and the holding of a traverse hearing, is referred to
a Special Referee to hear and report with recommendations, except
that, in the event of and upon the filing of a stipulation of the
parties, as permitted by CPLR 4317, the Special Referee, or
another person designated by the parties to serve as referee,
shall determine the issue.

     3. A motion to confirm or reject the report of the Special
Referee shall be made within 15 days of the filing of the report.

     4. the branch of defendants' motion to dismiss based on
standing is denied.

     5. the branch of defendants' motion to dismiss for failure to
state a cause of action is held in abeyance pending hearing and
determination of the remaining jurisdictional issues.

Grubb & Ellis Company -- http://www.grubb-ellis.com/-- is a
commercial real estate services and property management company
with more than 3,000 employees conducting throughout the United
States and the world.  It is one of the oldest and most recognized
brands in the industry.

Grubb & Ellis and 16 affiliates filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Lead Case No. 12-10685) on Feb. 21, 2012, to sell
almost all its assets to BGC Partners Inc.  The Santa Ana,
California-based company disclosed $150.16 million in assets and
$167.2 million in liabilities as of Dec. 31, 2011.

Judge Martin Glenn presides over the case.  The Debtors have
engaged Togut, Segal & Segal, LLP as general bankruptcy counsel,
Zuckerman Gore Brandeis & Crossman, LLP, as general corporate
counsel, and Alvarez & Marsal Holdings, LLC, as financial advisor
in the Chapter 11 case.  Kurtzman Carson Consultants is the claims
and notice agent.

BGC Partners, Inc., and its affiliate, BGC Note Acquisition Co.,
L.P., the DIP lender and Prepetition Secured Lender, are
represented in the case by Emanuel C. Grillo, Esq., at Goodwin
Procter LLP.

On March 27, 2012, the Court approved the sale to BCG.  An auction
was cancelled after no rival bids were submitted.  Pursuant to the
term sheet signed by the parties, BGC would acquire the assets for
$30.02 million, consisting of a credit bid the full principal
amount outstanding under the (i) $30 million credit agreement
dated April 15, 2011, with BGC Note, (ii) the amounts drawn under
the $4.8 million facility, and (iii) the cure amounts due to
counterparties.  BGC would also pay $16 million in cash because
the sale was approved by the March 27 deadline.  Otherwise, the
cash component would have been $14 million.

Approval of the sale was simplified when BGC settled with
unsecured creditors by increasing their recovery.  Grubb & Ellis
Co. was renamed Newmark Grubb Knight Frank following the sale.

Grubb & Ellis filed a liquidating Chapter 11 plan which gives
unsecured creditors an expected recovery between 1.7% and 4.7%.
The Court approved the explanatory disclosure materials in January
2013, and confirmed the Plan on March 6.  The Plan was declared
effective early in April 2013.

HAYDEL PROPERTIES: Court OKs Property Sale Extension
----------------------------------------------------
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Katharine M. Samson extended Haydel
Properties, LP's time to sell property authorized by the Court on
May 6, 2014, and Hancock Bank, the only party affected by the sale
of the property.

The Court said that the sale must occur prior to the foreclosure
of the Hancock Bank deed of trust; and the Hancock Bank
indebtedness secured by said deed of trust is paid in full prior
to the foreclosure sale.

The Court authorized the Debtor to sell the subject property to
Wal-Mart Real Estate Business Trust for a purchase price of
$128,000.  When the order authorizing the sale was entered, it was
anticipated that the sale would close prior to July 31, 2014, as
the confirmation order contained a provision that Hancock Bank
would have the authority to proceed with a foreclosure if Hancock
Bank was not paid in full on or before July 31, 2014.

The purchase, Wal-Mart Real Estate Business Trust has advised the
Debtor and Hancock Bank that it is now ready to close the sale,
which will pay off the Hancock Bank claim.  Wal-Mart has expressed
concern that the Debtor does not have the authority to sell the
real property after July 31, 2014.

Although the Debtor and Hancock Bank agree that the prior order
allows the sale and no further ruling is needed by the Court, the
Debtor requested that the Court enter an order confirming that the
prior order authorizing the sale can be completed any time prior
to foreclosure by Hancock Bank, provided Hancock Bank is paid in
full prior to the foreclosure of its deed of trust which is
currently set for Dec. 1, 2014.

HERCULES OFFSHORE: S&P Cuts Corp. Credit Rating to 'B-' From 'B'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, on Dec. 22, 2014, took rating
actions on several U.S. oil and gas oilfield services (OFS)
companies after completing a review of the sector.  The review
follows a precipitous and severe decline in oil prices that will
lead to meaningful reductions to exploration and production (E&P)
capital spending in 2015 and 2016.  S&P believes, on average,
capital spending for E&P could be down approximately 25%,
affecting OFS companies' top lines as well as margins.  Lower
spending will affect some companies more than others, but all
companies will face weaker credit protection measures.  S&P
expects weaker credit protection measures over the next 12-24
months.

S&P has taken actions on these companies:

   -- S&P is placing its 'BBB-' corporate credit rating on
      Weatherford International PLC and all ratings on its debt on
      CreditWatch with negative implications.  The CreditWatch
      listing reflects the possibility that weakening demand and
      heightened price competition could undermine the benefits of
      the company's recent extensive cost cutting and deleveraging
      actions.  As part of S&P's review, it will assess additional
      measures the company plans to pursue in the face of
      deteriorating market conditions.

   -- S&P is lowering its corporate credit rating on Noble Corp.
      to 'BBB' from 'BBB+' and removing the rating from
      CreditWatch, where it placed it with negative implications
      on Oct. 19, 2014.  The outlook is stable.  The downgrade
      reflects weaker credit measures resulting from S&P's lower
      estimates for day-rates and utilization, particularly in the
      mid-water asset category, where Noble has a significant
      concentration.  Most of its rigs in this category have
      contracts rolling off in the next 12 to 18 months, further
      intensifying re-contracting risk amid a declining commodity
      price environment.  Furthermore, S&P is removing the
      "favorable" rating analysis as a result of a more aggressive
      financial policy due to the company's recently announced
      sizable share repurchase authorization.

   -- S&P is affirming its 'BBB' corporate credit and unsecured
      debt ratings on Nabors Industries Ltd., as well as the
      company's 'A-2' short-term commercial paper rating, but
      revising the outlook to negative from stable.  The outlook
      revision reflects S&P's revised forecast and its more
      pessimistic outlook for 2015 and 2016, as well as greater
      uncertainty surrounding its base-case forecast in light of
      very difficult operating conditions given recent crude oil
      price declines.  S&P expects that reduced demand, lower
      levels of drilling activity, and heightened competition in
      the onshore rig market will increase re-contracting risk
      over the next two years, resulting in downward pressure on
      day-rates, and lower utilization.  S&P expects profitability
      and credit measures will be weaker than previously expected,
      including funds from operations (FFO) to total debt to range
      between 30% and 35% over the next year and weakening further
      in 2016, compared with S&P's earlier expectation for FFO to
      total debt to generally range between 40% and 45% over the
      next two years.

   -- S&P is lowering its corporate credit rating on Hercules
      Offshore Inc. to 'B-' from 'B'.  The outlook is stable.  The
      downgrade reflects S&P's estimate for increased leverage as
      a result of lower day-rates and utilization for the
      company's offshore rigs, both in the company's Domestic
      Offshore and International Offshore segments.  S&P's
      estimates of lower utilization and day-rates are a result of
      S&P's expectation of decreased offshore drilling given lower
      oil prices.  S&P now expects FFO to debt to be below 12% and
      debt to EBITDA to exceed 5x in 2015.

   -- S&P is revising its rating outlook on Utex Industries Inc.
      to negative from stable and affirming its 'B' corporate
      credit rating on the company.  The negative outlook reflects
      S&P's expectation that the company's leverage could exceed
      7.5x in 2015 due to E&P company capital spending reductions
      and declining demand for oilfield services following the
      significant drop in crude oil prices and S&P's revised crude
      oil pricing expectations for 2015 and beyond.

   -- S&P is lowering its rating on Seventy Seven Energy to 'B+'
      from 'BB-'.  The outlook is negative.  The downgrade
      reflects S&P's estimate for increased leverage as a result
      of the projected slowdown in demand for land-based oilfield
      services, driven by S&P's reduced oil price deck
      assumptions, as well as S&P's revised assessment of the
      company's business risk now that the company's contracts
      with former parent Chesapeake Energy are more market based.

   -- S&P is revising its rating outlook on FTS International Inc.
      to negative from stable and affirming its 'B' corporate
      credit rating on the company.  The outlook revision reflects
      S&P's expectation that credit measures will weaken due to a
      projected slowdown in demand for fracking services and a
      drop in EBITDA margins, driven by our reduced oil price deck
      assumptions.  However, the company's liquidity remains
      "strong."

IMPERIAL CAPITAL: Dist. Court Bars Trust's Appeal in D&O Lawsuit
----------------------------------------------------------------
District Judge Cynthia Bashant for the Southern District of
California denied the Imperial Capital D&O Litigation Trust's
motion for leave to appeal a bankruptcy court's partial granting
of summary judgment in an adversary proceeding.  According to
Judge Bashant, because the summary judgment challenged was only
partially granted, the Trust's appeal is interlocutory.

On Dec. 18, 2009, Imperial Capital Bank was closed by the
California Department of Financial Institutions, and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corp. was appointed as the Bank's receiver.
Imperial Capital Bancorp, the holding company, was the sole
shareholder of the Bank.  When the Bank was closed, the Holding
Company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

On Nov. 28, 2011, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
filed a complaint seeking recovery against the directors and
officers of the Holding Company, who also previously served in the
same positions for the Bank.  On Dec. 12, 2011, in their amended
answer, the defendants asserted that the Committee lacked standing
to sue under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and
Enforcement Act.

In the complaint, the Trust, as the Committee's successor, asserts
that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties because they
directed the Bank to acquire overly risky assets. The collapse of
these assets allegedly led to the closure of the Bank.
Before the complaint could be filed, however, the Committee moved
for permission to bring the action. The bankruptcy court held a
hearing on October 6, 2011, at which the FDIC made a special
appearance. At the hearing, counsel for the FDIC made it clear
that he was "not going to argue at all the claim objection or the
permission motion . . . because . . . those issues should be only
argued to the district court [and] it could be construed as such
that it's a waiver somehow[.]"   Because these arguments were
explicitly not raised, the bankruptcy court did not address FIRREA
when initially permitting the Committee to sue.

On March 5, 2014, the defendants moved for summary judgment. They
argued that the Trustee lacked standing to sue because it was a
derivative, not direct, claim and therefore only the FDIC had
standing to bring it.  The Trustee countered, stating that the
bankruptcy court's prior ruling granting permission to sue
constituted "law of the case" such that the bankruptcy court could
not now readdress standing, and that Delaware precedent colored
all of the claims as direct.

The bankruptcy court partially granted summary judgment, finding
that some of the claims were derivative and therefore the Trustee
had no standing to bring those claims.

On May 6, 2014, the Trustee moved for leave to appeal the
interlocutory summary judgment order.  On appeal, the Trustee
seeks to re-raise the same arguments to oppose the summary
judgment order.  The Trustee argues the bankruptcy court erred
when it determined:

     "(1) The law of the case doctrine did not apply to the issues
raised in the D&Os summary judgment motion, specifically regarding
the Bankruptcy Court's prior order granting standing to the
Trust's predecessor to bring all of the claims asserted in the
FAC.

     "(2) The Trustee's claims in the FAC belong to FDIC under
FIRREA because they are derivative, when Delaware law designates
the claims asserted by the Trustee as direct claims and not
derivative claims.

LITIGATION TRUST, Appellant, v. NORVAL L. BRUCE, et al.,
Appellees, CASE NO. 14-CV-1102 BAS (WVG) (S.D. Cal.).  A copy of

INDIVIOR PLC: S&P Assigns 'B' CCR & Rates Sr. Sec. Facility 'B'
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'B' corporate
credit rating to U.K.-based Indivior PLC.  At the same time, S&P
assigned a 'B' issue-level rating to both the senior secured
revolving credit facility issued by RBP Global Holdings Ltd. and
the $750 million secured term loan B that is being jointly issued
by Indivior Finance S.a.r.l and Indivior Finance LLC.  S&P
assigned a '3' senior secured recovery rating to both the revolver
and term loan, reflecting its expectation for meaningful (50% to
70%) recovery in the event of payment default.  The outlook is
stable.

"The 'B' corporate credit rating on Indivior overwhelmingly
reflects the company's dependence on one product, Suboxone, which
is also reflected in our assessment of a 'vulnerable' business
risk profile," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Michael
Berrian.  Following the demerger from Reckitt Benkiser, Indivior's
capitalization will result in funds from operations (FFO) to total
debt of 21% and discretionary cash flow to total debt of 9.5%,
both of which support S&P's "significant" financial risk
assessment.

Indivior is a specialty pharmaceutical company that is demerging
from former parent Reckitt Benkiser.  The majority of Indivior's
revenue comes from one product, Suboxone, which is a drug
indicated for the treatment of opioid and heroin addiction.  The
company benefits from two Suboxone delivery methods (sublingual
tablets and Suboxone film) but the landscape for the treatment of
addiction is very competitive and the company currently faces
generic competition.

S&P's vulnerable business risk assessment incorporates the key
risk to the Suboxone franchise: the reliance on one product for
all of its revenues, heightened by susceptibility to generic
competition.  Indivior's Suboxone tablets are off-patent and
currently face generic competition.  While Indivior's branded
Suboxone film currently has a 59% market share and has formulation
patent protection through 2030 and process patent protection
through 2024, S&P expects market share erosion in 2015.  The
erosion primarily follows lower generic tablet pricing after the
entrance of additional Suboxone tablet generics and, to a lesser
extent, some competition from currently marketed Bunavil film.
Beyond 2015, the 30-month stays for three active paragraph IV
challenges begin to expire and Indivior will still be challenged
to sustain or grow market share.

Indivior has a leading presence in treatment of addiction and a
strong relationship with physicians that could help it retain
market share.  Another partial offset to market share loss is the
potential for pipeline product Nasal Naloxone to be approved and
contribute to revenues beginning in 2016.  However, this will not
aid product or revenue diversity because of the still-high
reliance on Suboxone for the majority of revenues. Likewise,
Indivior has other Suboxone delivery methods in the pipeline, and
a phase III study for a monthly injection of Risperidone, but
those revenue contributions are at least two years away and will
still extend the current product and revenue concentration in
Suboxone.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's belief that Indivior will
continue to generate free cash flow in excess of $100 million
despite its expectation of double-digit revenue and EBITDA
declines in 2015.

S&P could lower the rating if the revenue and EBITDA contraction
is worse than its base-case expectation, most likely as a result
of more intense generic competition.  S&P could lower the rating
if it believed that leverage was likely to exceed 4x as a result
of declining EBITDA, especially if S&P did not see good prospects
for EBITDA improvement.

S&P could raise the rating if it became more confident that
Indivior's financial policy following the demerger from Reckitt
Benkiser is likely to be supportive of improving credit quality
over time.  For example, S&P would view the use of operating cash
flow for accretive acquisitions, as opposed to dividends, to be
credit positive given the company's need to lessen its reliance on
Suboxone.  Over time, such a shift in financial policy could
prompt a revision of the negative financial policy modifier.


IVEDA SOLUTIONS: Has $1.2-Mil. Net Loss for Third Quarter
---------------------------------------------------------
Iveda Solutions, Inc., filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, disclosing a net
loss of $1.2 million on $489,000 of total revenue for the three
months ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared with a net loss of $1.57
million on $568,918 of total revenue for the same period in 2013.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $3.82
million in total assets, $7.27 million in total liabilities and
total stockholders' deficit of $3.45 million.

Since inception, the Company has generated an accumulated deficit
from operations of approximately $25.9 million at Sept. 30, 2014
and has used approximately $4.2 million in cash to fund operations
through the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2014.  As a result, a
significant risk exists regarding our ability to continue as a
going concern.

A copy of the Form 10-Q is available at:

                       http://is.gd/g9V2Kw

Mesa, Ariz.-based Iveda Solutions, Inc., sells and installs video
surveillance equipment, primarily for security purposes and
secondarily for operational efficiencies and marketing, and
provides video hosting in-vehicle streaming video, archiving, and
real-time remote surveillance services with a proprietary
reporting system, DS(TM) (Daily Surveillance Report), to a variety
of businesses and organizations.

The Company reported a net loss of $1.59 million on $351,262 of
total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared
with a net loss of $1.51 million on $794,166 of total revenue for
the same period in 2013.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2014, showed $4.09 million
in total assets, $2.88 million in total liabilities, long term
debt and convertible debentures of $3.31 million, $158,872 in
due to related party and a stockholders' deficit of $2.27 million.


KITARA MEDIA: Uncertainty of Merger Raises Going Concern Doubt
--------------------------------------------------------------
Kitara Media Corp. filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, disclosing a net
loss of $1.8 million on $4.33 million of revenue for the three
months ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared with net income of $175,000
on $6.59 million of revenue for the same period in the prior year.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed
$22.3 million in total assets, $5.16 million in total liabilities,
and stockholders' equity of $17.09 million.

The Company will need to raise additional capital through loans or
additional investments from its shareholders, officers, directors,
or third parties in order to meet its cash requirements for the
next twelve months.  None of the shareholders, officers or
directors is under any obligation to advance funds to, or to
invest in, the Company.  Accordingly, on a standalone basis, the
Company may not be able to obtain additional financing.  If the
Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required
to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could
include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations,
suspending the pursuit of its business plan, and reducing overhead
expenses.

The Company has entered into an Exchange agreement with Future
Ads, which it is seeking to close prior to the end of 2014.  The
Company anticipates that the post-merger combined Company would
have sufficient liquidity to fund operations.  The closing of the
merger, however, is dependent on financing provided by Highbridge.
The merger financing provided by Highbridge, is subject to certain
pre closing conditions.  Accordingly, the Company cannot provide
any assurance that the merger with Future Ads will close or that
new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable
terms, if at all.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, according to
the regulatory filing.

KALLO INC: Incurs $580K Net Loss for Third Quarter
--------------------------------------------------
Kallo, Inc., filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, disclosing a net
loss of $580,000 for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2014,
compared with a net loss of $299,000 for the same period during
the prior year.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $1.09
million in total assets, $1.18 million in total liabilities and
total stockholders' deficit of $90,200.

The Company has incurred operating losses since inception and has
an accumulated deficit of $20.6 million at Sept. 30, 2014.  The
Company is expected to incur additional losses as it develops its
products and marketing channels.  The Company has met its
historical working capital requirements from the sale of common
shares and related party loans.  In order to not burden the
Company, the officer/stockholder has agreed to provide funding to
the Company to pay its annual audit fees, filing costs and legal
fees as long as the board of directors deems it necessary.
However, there can be no assurance that such financial support
will be ongoing or available on terms or conditions acceptable to
the Company.  This raises substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern, according to the
regulatory filing.

LBI MEDIA: S&P Lowers CCR to 'SD' on Second-Priority Note Exchange
------------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it lowered its
corporate credit ratings on Burbank, Calif.-based LBI Media
Holdings Inc. (LBI) and LBI Media Inc. to 'SD' (selective default)
from 'CC'.  At the same time, S&P lowered its issue-level rating
on LBI Media Inc.'s second-priority subordinated notes to 'D' from
'C'.  LBI is the parent of LBI Media Inc.

"The rating actions follow LBI's announcement that it expects to
complete its exchange offer transaction on or about Dec. 23,
2014," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Minesh Patel.  "Under
our criteria, we consider distressed issuers' debt exchanges,
where the timing of payments is slowed, as tantamount to a
default."

The company will exchange, among other things, substantially all
of its existing second-priority secured subordinated notes due
2020 into a new second-priority secured subordinated notes due
2020.  The existing noteholders will delay the step-up in the cash
coupon from November 2015 to November 2016.  They will also allow
for, among other things, LBI's ability to make a prepayment to the
junior ranking holding company's 11% unsecured notes due 2017
using the spectrum sale proceeds and the dilution resulting from
the exchange transactions.

The exchange transaction is not a deleveraging event.  S&P will
reassess the corporate credit rating on LBI after further review
of the exchange documents and business trends.  At this time, S&P
do not expect to raise the corporate credit rating higher than the
'CCC' category following the exchange, based on the company's
excessively high debt leverage.


LEHMAN BROTHERS: SecurityNational Wins Summary Judgment
-------------------------------------------------------
District Judge David Nuffer in Utah granted SecurityNational
Mortgage Company's motion for summary judgment in the case,
SECURITYNATIONAL MORTGAGE COMPANY, Plaintiff, v. AURORA BANK FSB
(formerly known as Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB) and AURORA LOAN
SERVICES LLC, Defendants, CASE NO. 2:11-CV-00434 DN (D. Utah).

SecurityNational alleges that Defendants took funds to which they
are not entitled under an Indemnification Agreement. That
agreement, entered into in settlement of a claim by Defendants
against SecurityNational, required SecurityNational to fund losses
Lehman Brothers' Bank FSB incurred on mortgages which
SecurityNational sold to Lehman Bank. Lehman Bank is the prior
name of the entity now called Aurora Bank FSB.  Security National
sues because the losses on the mortgages were actually suffered by
Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. with which SecurityNational has no
contractual relationship. Aurora Loan Services, LLC was the
servicer on the loans.

LEXARIA CORP: Amends July 31 Quarter Report
-------------------------------------------
Lexaria Corporation filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission an amendment to its quarterly report on Form 10-Q,
disclosing a net loss of $576,000 on $136,000 of natural gas and
oil revenue for the three months ended July 31, 2014, compared
with a net loss of $57,700 on $251,000 of natural gas and oil
revenue for the same period last year.

The Company's balance sheet at July 31, 2014, showed $4.57 million
in total assets, $1.02 million in total liabilities and total
stockholders' equity of $3.55 million.

The Company has incurred an operating loss and required additional
funds to maintain its operations.  Management's plans in this
regard are to raise equity and/or debt financing as required.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.

LIBERTY HARBOR: Plan Confirmation Hearing Scheduled for Jan. 27
---------------------------------------------------------------
Liberty Harbor Holding LLC is slated to seek confirmation of its
proposed Plan of Reorganization on Jan. 27, 2015, according to a
new schedule.

Pursuant to the Plan, to the extent required, the Moccos and
entities controlled by the Moccos will provide the Debtors with
the funding necessary to consummate the Plan, including, but not
limited to, all payments due under the Kerrigan Settlement.  The
Moccos have already advanced the Debtors the sum of $3 million,
which amounts were necessary to deliver the initial two payments
under the Kerrigan Settlement Agreement between the Debtors, the
JCRA, the City of Jersey City and the Kerrigans.

On Dec. 19, 2013, creditor SWJ Management, LLC, filed an objection
to the confirmation of the Plan, claiming that the Plan is not
feasible because, among other things, the Mocco v. Licata
litigation will not be resolved at confirmation.  "The Debtors'
plans are patently unconfirmable and unfeasible because the Debtor
owns nothing unless awarded an ownership interest by the Court in
the Mocco v. Licata ligation," SWJ said in a Dec. 19 court filing.

According to SWJ, the Mocco parties are not likely to be
successful on the merits of the Mocco v. Licata litigation.  The
Mocco parties case, SWJ stated, relies on forged documents and
forged signatures produced by a convicted felon Peter de Jong.
"Mr. Dejong, who acted as if he were Mr. Licata's attorney, was
shown to have received massive payoffs from the Mocco parties
through an entity known as AQM and was also shown to have actually
been an attorney for Peter Mocco.  The entire Mocco parties case
is based on rank fraud and intimidation of every attorney who
dared challenge them," SWJ said.

Geiger, U.S. Trustee and Steve Dawson, stating that, among other
things:

   1. the net proceeds of the sales will be held in the DIP
checking account at Heritage Bank pending further court order,
subject to the required use of funds to pay UST fees as they
accrue and other expenses specifically authorized by subsequent
court order.

   2. each of the pending sales have earnest money deposits and
many of the prospective purchasers have already arranged for or
made significant improvements to the properties.  In the event of
a default on developer financed sales the DIP has remedies under
the notes and deeds of trust in the event of a default
(Declaration of Terri Mohr).

   3. Terri Mohr, the realtor, has been marketing these properties
on site and conducts tours year round.  The properties had
historically been advertized in the newspaper and RV Life magazine
until title litigation prevented closing of sales.

The U.S. Trustee, in its objection, stated that the motion is
devoid of certain necessary details of the sales, including:

   a. where the down payments and proceeds from the sales will be
held;

   b. an accounting and itemization of anticipated closing costs
for each sale;

   c. the anticipated likelihood that the purchasers will
perform,; and

   d. the estate's remedies in the event of a purchaser's default.

LLS AMERICA: Trustee Wins in Clawback Suit v. Foerstner et al.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Following a bench trial on Oct. 14, 2014, Chief District Judge
Rosanna Malouf Peterson held that Bruce P. Kriegman, solely in his
capacity as court-appointed Chapter 11 Trustee for LLS America,
LLC, ruled that:

     1. The Trustee is entitled to and is granted a judgment for
the benefit of the Liquidating Trust of the Debtor against Gudrun
Foerstner in the amount of C$575,526.53 and US$7,733.14, plus pre-
judgment interest from July 21, 2009, at the applicable federal
judgment rate and post-judgment interest at the federal judgment
rate from the date of judgment to the date the judgment is paid in
full.

     2. The Trustee is entitled to and is granted a judgment for
the benefit of the Liquidating Trust of the Debtor against Tyler
Foerstner in the amount of C$641,650, plus pre-judgment interest
from July 21, 2009, at the applicable federal judgment rate and
post-judgment interest at the federal judgment rate from the date
of judgment to the date the judgment is paid in full.

     3. The Trustee is entitled to and is granted a judgment for
the benefit of the Liquidating Trust of the Debtor against Heidi
Schulze in the amount of US$142,187, plus pre-judgment interest
from July 21, 2009, at the applicable federal judgment rate and
post-judgment interest at the federal judgment rate from the date
of judgment to the date the judgment is paid in full.

     4. The Trustee is entitled to and is granted a judgment for
the benefit of the Liquidating Trust of the Debtor against 685937
BC Ltd. in the amount of C$989,235 and US$20,400, plus pre-
judgment interest from July 21, 2009, at the applicable federal
judgment rate and post-judgment interest at the federal judgment
rate from the date of judgment to the date the judgment is paid in
full.

     5. The Court equitably subordinates Defendant Tyler
Foerstner's claim.  Defendant Tyler Foerstner's conduct was
inequitable in that he recruited at least one other new investor
without investigating the signs that the Debtor's business was
fraudulent.  This misconduct contributed to the significant amount
of fictitious profits that Defendant Tyler Foerstner obtained from
the Ponzi scheme, to the injury of its victims.  Accordingly, all
proofs of claim that may arise or that have been filed or brought
or that may hereafter be filed or brought by, on behalf of, or for
the benefit of Defendant Tyler Foerstner, against the Debtor's
estate, in the Debtor's bankruptcy or related bankruptcy
proceedings are subordinated to all other unsecured claims.

The case is, BRUCE P. KRIEGMAN, solely in his capacity as court-
appointed Chapter 11 Trustee for LLS America, LLC, Plaintiff, v.
MARTINA PEIPER, et al., Defendants, NO. 2:12-CV-628-RMP (E.D.

MAGUIRE GROUP: Ch.11 Case Should Be Reopened, Dist. Court Says
--------------------------------------------------------------
HDR Architecture, P.C. emerged victorious in its district court
appeal from a bankruptcy court order that denied its request to
reopen the Chapter 11 case of Maguire Group Holdings, Inc.
District Judge Beth Bloom of the District Court for the Southern
District of Florida reversed and remanded a final order issued by
the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida dated
April 1, 2014, denying HDR's motion to reopen the Chapter 11 cases
and to modify the discharge injunction.

On February 14, 2013 -- after the Debtors' Plan had been confirmed
and became effective but before their chapter 11 cases were closed
-- the State of Connecticut commenced suit against HDR and a
number of other defendants to recover damages resulting from
alleged construction and design defects at the York Project (the
"Bacon Action"). The State did not name Maguire as a defendant in
the Bacon Action. The State alleges damages in excess of $18
million.

Ten days after the Debtors' cases were closed, HDR moved to reopen
them and modify the plan discharge injunction for the limited
purpose of permitting HDR to name Maguire as a third-party
defendant and to bring claims against Maguire in the Bacon Action.
HDR represented that any damages for which the Reorganized Debtors
might be found liable would be recoverable solely from Chartis
under the Chartis Policy. The Reorganized Debtors acknowledge that
the Chartis Policy provides Maguire with liability coverage for
the HDR Indemnification Claim.

The Reorganized Debtors objected, arguing that the relief sought
by HDR would impair the Reorganized Debtors' "fresh start" because
the HDR Indemnification Claim would trigger the $150,000 payment
to Chartis under the Chartis Settlement Order. Chartis joined in
the Reorganized Debtors' objection, arguing that it would be
prejudiced if HDR were permitted to pursue an indemnification
claim against Maguire.

The District Court held, however, that "The Bankruptcy Court's
determination that Appellant's pursuit of the HDR Indemnification
Claim in the Bacon Action against Maguire as a nominal defendant
only and solely in order to gain access to proceeds of the Chartis
Policy impaired the Debtors' fresh start and violated the
discharge injunction was in error. That decision is, therefore,
REVERSED. This cause is REMANDED to the Bankruptcy Court for
consideration of Appellant's motions to reopen the Debtors'
chapter 11 cases and to modify the discharge injunction consistent
with this decision."

The case is, HDR ARCHITECTURE, P.C., Appellant, v. MAGUIRE GROUP
HOLDINGS, et al. and CHARTIS SPECIALTY INSURANCE COMPANY,
LEXINGTON INSURANCE COMPANY AND CERTAIN OTHER AFFILIATES OF
CHARTIS INC., Appellees, CASE NO. 14-CIV-21851-BLOOM (S.D. Fla.).

MARION ENERGY: TCS Loses Dismissal Bid, But Gets Lift Stay
----------------------------------------------------------
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Joel T. Marker entered an order:

   1) granting in part and denying in part TCS II Funding
Solutions, LLC and Castlelake, L.P.'s motion to dismiss the case
of Marion Energy Inc., or for relief from stay; and

   2) denying Marion Energy's motion to obtain postpetition
financing.

Judge Marker ruled that TCS's request for an order dismissing the
case for having been commenced in bad faith is denied.  Judge
Marker granted limited relief from the automatic stay solely to
allow TCS to record notices of default and of sale, and to take
other action as required by Utah law to effectuate the potential
foreclosure sale of its collateral to occur on or after June 10,
2015, and for no other purpose.

The Court order also provides that if the Debtor has not satisfied
its secured obligations to TCS by June 1, 2015, the Court will
enter a further order dismissing the case with prejudice to
prohibit refiling by the Debtor or any other entity in possession
of TCS's collateral for 180 days after the dismissal.  If the case
is dismissed, TCS may conduct such a foreclosure sale no earlier
than June 10, 2015.

As reported in the TCR on Dec. 11, 2014, the TCS objected the
Debtor's request to access DIP Financing.  In response, the Debtor
stated that it has met its burden under Section 364(d) for the
Court to approve the DIP Loan.  The Debtor, given its assets and
the time constraints, is demonstrably unable to obtain credit from
another lender on more favorable terms.  TCS is adequately
protected by an equity cushion of more than $100 million, a fact
that TCS stipulated to at the Nov. 5, 2014 hearing.

The Debtor sought approval to obtain debtor-in-possession
financing of up to $4,200,000 from KM Custodians Pty Ltd.  The
Debtor said the DIP Loan is necessary to enable the Debtor to
continue operations and to administer and preserve the value of
its estate as a going concern.  In general terms, the proceeds of
the DIP Loan are to be used as follows: (i) to pay fees, costs and
expenses of the DIP Lender, including payment of Lender's
reasonable attorney's fees and other out of pocket expenses; (ii)
to pay postpetition operating expenses of the Debtor incurred in
the ordinary course of business; (iii) to pay costs and expenses
of administration of the chapter 11 case, including payment of
approved professional fees, including attorney fees; and (iv) to
pay other amounts as specified in the budget.

The Debtor will grant the DIP Lender a perfected first-priority
security interest in all of its assets to secure the DIP Loan, and
will grant the DIP Lender a superpriority administrative claim.

MORTGAGE LENDERS: Defendants Can't Appeal Order in Sales Rep Suit
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Michael Meyers, David Rundella, David Bosefski, Scott Kerico, Marc
Ambrose, Lisa Macone, Johanna Curley, and Jeffery DePalma sued
Mitchell L. Heffernan and James E. Pedrick -- "defendants" or the
"third-party plaintiffs" -- alleging that defendants failed to pay
them earned commissions, in violation of the New Jersey Wage
Payment Law, N.J.S.A. 34:11-4.1 et seq. (the "WPL") and the Sales
Representatives' Rights Act, N.J.S.A. 2A:61A-1 et seq. (the
"SRRA").

Plaintiffs allege that they were employed as commissioned sales
representatives by the now-defunct Mortgage Lenders Network, a
mortgage banking company, until February 2007.  Plaintiffs filed
the complaint on February 18, 2010, seeking to hold defendants
personally liable for unpaid commissions they allegedly earned as
employees of MLN.  Plaintiffs claim that, sometime prior to
February 2007, MLN stopped paying them earned commissions.
Plaintiffs asserted claims against defendants for violations of
the WPL and the SRRA. The Court dismissed with prejudice, by
consent of the parties, the SRRA claims asserted against
defendants.

MLN petitioned for bankruptcy relief on February 5, 2007 under
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.  On February
3, 2009, the Bankruptcy Judge entered an order confirming the
First Amended Plan of Liquidation as Modified of MLN.  On July 19,
2011, the Bankruptcy Judge entered an order approving the final
distributions, including distributions to most of the plaintiffs,
in the MLN Bankruptcy Case.

The third-party plaintiffs filed a third-party complaint against
the third-party defendants, Steven Patton and Paul Impagliazzo --
"third-party defendants" or the "fourth-party plaintiffs" --
pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 14, for
indemnification and contribution in the event they are held liable
to plaintiffs in the main action.  The fourth-party plaintiffs
then filed a fourth-party complaint against the fourth-party
defendants, Randal Roberge and Michael Simeone -- "fourth-party
defendants" -- pursuant to Rule 14, for indemnification and
contribution in the event they are held liable to the third-party
plaintiffs or plaintiffs.

Defendants now ask the U.S. District Court for the District of New
Jersey to certify part of an order entered on July 8, 2014 for
appellate review by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third
Circuit pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Section 1292(b) and for a stay.
Defendants move to stay the matter pending appellate review of:
(a) whether a two-year or six-year statute of limitations applies
to Plaintiffs' claims under the WPL; and (b) whether Plaintiffs
are collaterally estopped from claiming damages in excess of those
sought in the bankruptcy proceeding of their former employer, less
any distributions they received in the bankruptcy proceeding.

Plaintiffs oppose the motion.

In a Dec. 19 Memorandum Opinion available at http://is.gd/itfG4I
from Leagle.com, District Judge Mary L. Cooper denied the motion
for certification and for stay.

A story on the Court's July 8 decision was reported in the July 14
edition of the Troubled Company Reporter.  A copy of the July 8,
2014 Memorandum Opinion written by Judge Cooper is available at

disclosed that your rights may be affected by class action
lawsuits entitled The Harman Press v. International Paper Co., et
al., San Francisco Superior Court Case No. CGC-04-432167.  The
Court has preliminarily approved a settlement agreement between
Plaintiffs and defendants Stora Enso North America Corporation,
n/k/a NewPage Wisconsin System, Inc. ("SENA") and Stora Enso Oyj
("SEO"), and has scheduled a hearing to consider the fairness,
adequacy, and reasonableness of the proposed settlement.  If the
Court grants final approval to the settlement, all named
defendants will have settled and the litigation will be concluded.

WHAT ARE THE LAWSUITS ABOUT? Plaintiffs, on behalf of themselves
and all other similarly situated persons and entities in the State
of California, allege that Settling Defendants and UPM-Kymmene

violates the antitrust and/or consumer protection laws of
California. Defendants deny liability.

WHAT IS PUBLICATION PAPER? Publication Paper refers to paper that
contains a layer of coating material, such as kaolin, calcium
carbonate, titanium oxide, latex and/or other materials, in

California as of November 21, 2014, whether or not a resident of
or a business located in California at the time of purchase, and,
at any time during the period June 8, 2000 up to and including
January 29, 2014, indirectly purchased in the State of California,
Publication Paper from any of the Defendants are in the
"Settlement Class."

WHAT ARE THE PROPOSED SETTLEMENT TERMS? In exchange for the
release of claims by the Settlement Class, SEO has agreed to pay
$125,000.  The Settlement Amount plus interest is the "Settlement
Fund."  In addition, SEO has agreed to pay into the Settlement
Fund an amount equal to one-half the cost of the expenses of
providing notice of the settlement to the Class, up to a maximum
total payment of $12,500.  The Settlement Fund, plus $900,000
recovered in a prior settlement with UPM-Kymmene Corporation, is
the "Combined Settlement Fund."

HOW WILL THE COMBINED SETTLEMENT FUND BE DISTRIBUTED? Plaintiffs'
Counsel will submit a plan of distribution to the Court for
distribution of the Combined Settlement Fund in the litigation,
less court-approved costs, expenses and attorneys' fees not to
exceed 1/3 of the Combined Settlement Fund, to eligible non-profit
organizations in the State of California who are, as nearly as
practicable, representative of the interests of indirect
purchasers of Publication Paper, or to other such organizations as
the Court may approve or direct, in accordance with applicable
law.  Plaintiffs' Counsel shall submit the names and identities of
eligible non-profit organizations for the Court's approval at the
fairness hearing.  Plaintiffs propose distributing the Combined
Settlement Fund in this manner due to the high cost of processing
claims and making direct cash distributions to potentially
millions of claimants relative to the average likely award to
those claimants.  Under the plan of distribution, payments will
not be made to Settlement Class Members.  The plan of distribution
is not part of the Settlement Agreement, and any order of the
Court relating to such plan shall not affect the finality of the
Settlement Agreement.

WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS? If you wish to remain a member of the
Settlement Class you need not take any action.  You will be bound
by the judgment of the Court regarding your claims and cannot
present them in another lawsuit.  If you don't want to be a member
of the Settlement Class, or be legally bound by the Settlement,
you must exclude yourself in writing by March 2, 2015.  If you
exclude yourself from the Settlement, you will preserve your
right, if any, to sue SENA and SEO regarding the legal claims in
this case.  However, on September 7, 2011, SENA and certain of its
affiliates filed for bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Delaware.  The United States Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Delaware confirmed the Chapter 11
bankruptcy plan of SENA, and on December 21, 2012, the Chapter 11
plan became effective.  SENA received a discharge from claims
under the terms of its confirmed and effective Chapter 11 plan in
the Bankruptcy Cases. For more details regarding SENA's
bankruptcy, please review the Detailed Notice on
www.CaliforniaPublicationPaperSettlement.com

The Detailed Notice also describes how to exclude yourself from
the Settlement Class and how to object to the Settlement.  If you
remain a Settlement Class Member, you may object to the Settlement
by March 2, 2015.  The Court will hold a Fairness Hearing at 9:00
a.m. on March 30, 2015, at 400 McAllister St., Dept. 304,
San Francisco, CA 94102.  At this hearing, the Court will consider
whether the Settlement is fair, reasonable and adequate and should
be granted final approval.  You may appear at the hearing, but you
don't have to.

HOW CAN I OBTAIN THE FULL NOTICE AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT
THE PROPOSED SETTLEMENT? You may obtain a copy of the full notice
and the proposed settlement by (a) contacting California
Publication Paper Antitrust Settlement Administrator, P.O. Box

P.K. LAND: Appeals Court Revives Law Firm's Suit for Unpaid Fees
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Court of Appeals of Michigan vacated a trial court's order
granting summary disposition in favor of the defendant in a
lawsuit filed by a bankruptcy lawyer against his clients for
unpaid fees.

In the appellate case, THOMAS J. BUDZYNSKI, P.C., Plaintiff-
Appellant, v. MONIQUE RENEE BIL, Defendant-Appellee, NO. 317634
(Mich. App.), the Plaintiff is a professional corporation through
which attorney Thomas Budzynski, practices law. In 2006, Paul Bil,
then husband to the defendant, and Mr. Bil's company P.K. Land
Management retained the plaintiff for legal services to file for
bankruptcy.  Mr. Bil's business property he owned through PKLM was
facing foreclosure.  The Plaintiff made a loan of $25,000 to Mr.
Bil and PKLM, secured by a promissory note drafted by the
plaintiff and signed by Mr. Bil and the defendant. The promissory
note was executed on April 20, 2006.  Neither Mr. Bil nor the
defendant made payment on the loan.

The firm filed a complaint against the defendant only on July 6,
2012.  The Complaint alleged three counts.  Count I was for Breach
of Contract for the nonpayment of legal services performed
totaling $6,612.64. Count II was for the amount owed on the
promissory note which by that time was calculated at $42,048.74 to
include the 11% per year interest. Count III alleged Quantum
Meruit/Unjust Enrichment related to the benefit of services
received in Count I without payment for those services.

The Defendant answered the Complaint and filed affirmative
defenses on November 19, 2012. A short time later, on January 24,
2013, the defendant filed a motion for summary disposition
pursuant to MCR 2.116(C)(8) and (10). In her motion, the defendant
argued that the plaintiff was not entitled to relief because the
plaintiff violated MRPC 1.8(a) and (e). On the same day, the
defendant and Mr. Bil filed supporting affidavits with the trial
court.  The Defendant's affidavit averred that she was rushed to
the plaintiff's office to sign the promissory note without
reasonable notice or the benefit of independent legal advice as
required under MRPC 1.8(a). Mr. Bil's affidavit was consistent
with the defendant's, and added that he hired the plaintiff to
avoid foreclosure litigation and that the promissory note was for
the plaintiff's benefit.

The parties engaged in discovery and on February 7, 2013, the
plaintiff motioned the trial court to amend the Complaint to
remove Count I Breach of Contract because the defendant was not
his client.  The proposed amended Complaint was otherwise
identical to the original Complaint. Four days later, the
plaintiff filed a response to defendant's motion for summary
disposition arguing that he did not loan money to his clients in
anticipation of litigation and requested summary disposition in
his favor under MCR 2.116(I)(2).

The trial court issued its opinion and order on June 3, 2013
granting the defendant summary disposition and denying the firm
leave to amend the Complaint. The trial court determined no
genuine issue of material fact existed as to the plaintiff's
violation of MRPC 1.8(e). The court additionally found that any
amendment to the Complaint would be futile.  The Plaintiff filed
for reconsideration of the court's order on June 24, 2013. the
Plaintiff attached his own affidavit to the motion for
reconsideration which averred that he did not loan money to PKLM
or Mr. Bil in anticipation of litigation, that he complied with
MRPC 1.8(a)(1)-(3), and that the purpose of the financial
assistance was solely to help with the restructure of debt for
PKLM. The court rejected the plaintiff's arguments finding that no
palpable error was committed by the court in its prior decision.

The Plaintiff argues that the trial court erred in granting
summary disposition to defendant for two reasons: failure to plead
MRPC 1.8(e) as an affirmative defense and because a factual
dispute existed as to whether MRPC 1.8(e) was applicable to the
transaction between the plaintiff and Mr. Bil, and the plaintiff
and PKLM.

The Appeals Court agrees with the trial court that the defendant
sufficiently pled MRPC 1.8(e) as an affirmative defense but finds
that a factual dispute exists as to whether MRPC 1.8(e) was
violated.

"Because we find that a genuine issue of material fact existed as
to whether plaintiff loaned his clients financial assistance in
anticipation of litigation, we vacate the trial court's summary
disposition order and remand for further proceedings consistent
with this opinion," the Appeals Court said.

PACIFIC STEEL: Mowat Mackies to Prepare 2015 Tax Returns
--------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California
authorized Pacific Steel Casting Company and Berkeley Properties,
LLC to expand the employment of Mowat Mackie & Anderson LLP as
their accountant to include preparation of tax returns and other
filings for the tax year ending March 31, 2015.

As reported on the Troubled Company Reporter on April 17, 2014,
the Debtors sought the Court's authority to employ the firm as
their accountant, effective Mar. 27, 2014.

The Debtors require Mowat Mackie to:

   (a) audit the consolidated balance sheet of the Debtors as of
       Mar. 31, 2014, and the related consolidated statements of
       operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the
       year then ended;

   (b) provide tax services to the Debtors including but not
       limited to preparation of tax returns and other filings
       for the year ending Mar. 31, 2014;

   (c) prepare any foreign reporting requirements; and,

   (d) assist with responding to the IRS audit.

Mowat Mackie will be paid at these hourly rates:

       Robert Rognon                      $325
       Various Staff Accountants       $115-$280

Mowat Mackie estimated that its fees for the services identified
herein will range from $65,000 to $70,000 for the audit; $12,000
to $15,000 for preparation of the consolidated income tax returns;
$1,000 to $1,500 for additional tax returns of BP; and, $2,000 for
preparation of foreign reporting documents.  Mowat Mackie cannot
provide an estimate for the fees associated with the IRS audit
because of the nature of such services and the uncertainty of the
time required.

Julie H. Rome-Banks, partner of Binder & Malter, LLP, Debtors'
attorneys, assured the Court that the firm is a "disinterested
person" as the term is defined in Section 101(14) of the
Bankruptcy Code and does not represent any interest adverse to the
Debtors and their estates.


PANTECH CO: U.S. Court Recognizes Korean Proceeding
---------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia

in Korea as foreign main proceeding.

AT&T Inc., et al., filed a limited objection to the petition and
application for a temporary restraining order and a preliminary
and permanent injunction submitted by Joonwoo Lee, the putative
foreign representative of the Debtor.  According to AT&T, it is
opposed to the Debtor's improper effort to obtain a sweeping
permanent injunction against all persons and entities through its
petition for recognition of foreign main proceeding.

The Bankruptcy Court held a Dec. 17 hearing to consider
recognition of the Korean bankruptcy case.

                         About Pantech

of mobile devices.  Major shareholders include Qualcomm (11.96%),

persons concerned.

POLAROID CORP: Gordon Brothers, Hilco, Pholad Buy Interests in PLR
------------------------------------------------------------------
Gordon Brothers Group, Hilco Global and Pohlad Family Capital Fund
(PFCF) on Dec. 29 disclosed that PFCF and another family office
investor have acquired interests in PLR IP Holdings, LLC, the
owner of the Polaroid brand and related intellectual property,
from Knightsbridge Capital Partners and the Chapter 7 bankruptcy
trustee of PBE Corporation (the former Polaroid Corporation).  The
transaction marks the next phase of the company's evolution after
a successful five year effort to reestablish Polaroid as the
preeminent brand for instant photography and related consumer
electronics worldwide.

Polaroid is an iconic brand known the world over for pioneering
and perfecting instant photography -- both in the analog and
digital eras.  Today, the Polaroid brand is found on a broad range
of consumer electronics products including instant and digital
still cameras, lifestyle action sports cameras, tablets and flat
screen TVs.  Polaroid products are currently sold in over 100,000
retail stores in more than 100 countries throughout the world.
Innovative products such as the Polaroid Cube and Socialmatic
Instant Digital Camera continue to break through established
barriers, bringing ease-of-use, sharing and fun to consumers
everywhere.

Gordon Brothers Group and Hilco Global acquired the intellectual
property and other assets of the Polaroid Corporation in 2009
following the company's bankruptcy filing.  The acquisition
included a material investment by Knightsbridge Capital Partners
and an equity stake for the bankruptcy estate of the then Polaroid
Corporation (now PBE Corp.).  Since that time, the joint venture
has transformed the company into a global licensing platform under
a new management team lead by Scott W. Hardy, President and CEO.
Polaroid currently has over 50 best-in-class licensees across the
globe, all of which have contributed to the company regaining its
place as a leading international consumer electronics brand.

"We are very excited to partner with these new investors to take
Polaroid to the next level," stated Kenneth S. Frieze, CEO of
Gordon Brothers Group.  "We are proud of what we have accomplished
and believe this new investment will position us to continue our
work with Polaroid and contribute to other future collaborative
brand projects in this space" he added.

"This transaction presents us with the opportunity to capitalize
on what we see as a strong, strategic growth opportunity and to
contribute to the compelling resurgence of Polaroid," said
Jann Ozzello Wilcox, Chief Investment Officer of Marquette
Companies.  "The management team of Polaroid is exceptional and we
are pleased to partner with other investors -- some new, and some
existing -- that bring additional expertise beyond our own."

"The progress we've made in revitalizing the brand is impressive,"
said Jeffrey B. Hecktman, Chairman and CEO of Hilco Global.  "Over
the years, Hilco Global has made successful strategic investments
in iconic brand names and high-profile consumer companies like
Polaroid and we are certain that with this new partnership and
investment group, Polaroid is poised for further success."

"We are very excited about this deal and what it means for
Polaroid in 2015 and beyond," said Scott W. Hardy, President and
CEO of Polaroid.  "The addition of these new investors to the
ownership group will bring stable family capital to the Polaroid
brand over the long-term.  The new investors, in partnership with
Gordon Brothers Group and Hilco Global, are firmly committed to
the viability and success of Polaroid, as well as the current
business model and management team.  This deal is a testament to
the success we've achieved over the past five years and represents
the next step in the ongoing resurgence of our iconic American
brand."

Polaroid's management team and headquarters will remain in
Minnetonka, Minnesota.  The company also maintains offices in New
York City and Hong Kong, with plans for expansion into other
international offices.

on $11.2 million of interest income for the same period in the
prior year.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $1.03
billion in total assets, $1 billion in total liabilities, and
stockholders' equity of $29.3 million.

During the first nine months of 2014, the Company reported a net
loss attributable to common shareholders of $8.8 million, compared
with net loss attributable to common shareholders of $2.4 million
for the first nine months of 2013.  The increase in 2014 compared
to 2013 is primarily attributable to an increase in provision for
loan losses expense, coupled with a decrease in net interest
income and non-interest income.  At Sept. 30, 2014, the Company
continued to be involved in various legal proceedings in which it
disputes the material factual allegations.  After conferring with
its legal advisors, the Company believes it has meritorious
grounds on which to prevail.  If it does not prevail, the ultimate
outcome of any one of these matters could have a material adverse
effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash
flows.  These matters create substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern, according to the
regulatory filing.

PORTER BANCORP: Files Amendment to Second Quarter Report
--------------------------------------------------------
Porter Bancorp, Inc., filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission an amendment to its quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
A copy of the Form 10-Q/A is available at http://is.gd/oxuTpF

In the report, the Company disclosed a net loss of $6.23 million
on $10.2 million of interest income for the three months ended
June 30, 2014, compared with a net loss of $1.31 million on $11.2
million of interest income for the same period during the prior
year.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2014, showed $1.04 billion
in total assets, $1.01 billion in total liabilities, and
stockholders' equity of $30.6 million.

During the first six months of 2014, the Company reported net loss
attributable to common shareholders of $7.3 million, compared with
a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $2.2 million for
the first six months of 2013.  The increase in net loss in 2014
compared to 2013 is primarily attributable to an increase in
provision expense of $5.9 million to $6.3 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $450,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2013.  At June 30, 2014, the Company
continued to be involved in various legal proceedings in which it
disputes the material factual allegations.  After conferring with
its legal advisors, the Company believes it has meritorious
grounds on which to prevail.  If it does not prevail, the ultimate
outcome of any one of these matters could have a material adverse

PRO MACH: S&P Withdraws CCR on Completed Sponsor Buy-out
--------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its corporate credit
rating on Pro Mach Inc., a subsidiary of packaging solutions
provider Pro Mach Group Inc., to 'B-' from 'B', and removed all
ratings on Pro Mach Inc. from CreditWatch, where S&P had placed
them with negative implications on Oct. 7, 2014.

S&P subsequently withdrew its corporate credit rating on Pro Mach
Inc.

At the same time, S&P withdrew all issue and recovery ratings on
Pro Mach Inc.'s first-lien facilities, which were refinanced as
part of the October 2014 transaction.

"The rating actions follow the completion of Pro Mach's
acquisition by private equity funds affiliated with AEA Investors
L.P.," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Svetlana Olsha  We
lowered the rating on Pro Mach Inc. and removed it from
CreditWatch to reflect our view that its credit quality is now
aligned with that of Pro Mach Group Inc. following the close of
the acquisition transaction.  Immediately thereafter, we withdrew
all ratings on Pro Mach Inc. and its rated debt following the
repayment of all prior debt.


PROSPECT PARK: UST Calls Disclosure Statement "Inadequate"
----------------------------------------------------------
Roberta A. DeAngelis, U.S. Trustee for Region 3, objected to the
disclosure statement describing the Chapter 11 plan of Prospect
Park Networks LLC filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware because the Debtor's plan is unconfirmable
because it has an indefinite, contingent effective date and
appears to hinge on speculative litigation winnings and the plan
does not comply with Sections 1129(a)(1), (a)(9) or (a)(11) of the
Bankruptcy Code.

The U.S. Trustee argued that the Debtor's disclosure statement
does not contain a proper liquidation analysis, demonstrate the
plan's feasibility, or include enough current information about
the Debtor's assets and liabilities.

The U.S. Trustee told the Court that it has not filed monthly
operating reports since July 2014.  The monthly operating reports
for August, September, and October are past due and may contain
information -- such as the results of the tax credit sale and the
amount of cash remaining in the Debtor's estate after the transfer
of a $400,000 litigation cost reserve to Jones Day's attorney
trust account -- that creditors may regard as material when
casting their vote.

The U.S. Trustee added the Debtor's monthly operating report for
November 2014 will also have been due.  Information in these
monthly operating reports should be incorporated into the Debtor's
proposed disclosure statement, thereby giving creditors a current
view of the bankruptcy estate.  The Court should not be required
to take up the plan confirmation process when grounds exist for
dismissing or converting the Debtor's bankruptcy case Section
1112(b)(4)(F), the trustee noted.

The U.S. Trustee said the Debtor's disclosure statement should not
be approved, and asked the Court to consider converting the case
to one under Chapter 7.


QTS REALTY: S&P Retains 'B+' Rating on Upsized Unsecured Debt
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that its ratings on
Overland Park, Kan.-based data center operator QTS Realty Trust
Inc. remain unchanged following the company's announcement of an
amendment to increase the size, extend the maturity, and reduce
the pricing on its unsecured credit facility.  The facility is
rated 'B+' with a recovery rating of '3', indicating S&P's
expectation for meaningful (50% to 70%) recovery for lenders in
the event of a payment default.

The amendment increases the size of QTS's unsecured revolving
credit facility to $550 million from $410 million and also extends
the maturity of the revolver one year to December 2018.  The
company also extended the maturity on its $100 million unsecured
term loan by one year to December 2019.

The 'B+' corporate credit rating and stable outlook on QTS reflect
S&P's view of favorable growth prospects for data centers and the
company's stable operations, which result in our "satisfactory"
assessment of the business risk.  The ratings also reflect S&P's
expectation for substantial cash outflows to support growth and
majority ownership by a private equity sponsor, which result in
our "highly leveraged" assessment of the financial risk.

RADIAN ASSET: S&P Puts 'B+' Rating on CreditWatch Positive
----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it placed its ratings
on Radian Asset Assurance Inc., including its 'B+' long-term
counterparty and financial strength ratings, on CreditWatch
Positive.  S&P is also affirming its 'AA' financial strength and
enhancement ratings on Assured Guaranty Municipal Corp., Assured
Guaranty Corp. (AGC), Assured Guaranty Re Ltd., and Municipal
Assurance Corp. (collectively, Assured).

Assured will purchase Radian Asset through AGC for $810 million in
cash.  As of Sept. 30, 2014, Radian Asset had statutory capital of
$1.3 billion ($1 billion f surplus and $287 million of contingency
reserves), remaining unearned premium reserves of $176 million,
and present value of installment premiums of $66 million.
Assured's purchase of Radian Asset will have an immaterial effect
on Assured's capital adequacy.  S&P expects the company to
maintain on a pro-forma basis more than $1.3 billion capital
cushion at the current rating level following the close of the
acquisition.

As of Sept. 30, 2014, Radian Asset's insured par totaled
approximately $19 billion, comprised of $11 billion in public-
finance transactions and $8 billion of structured-finance
transactions ($6.1 billion of corporate collateralized debt
obligation exposures will mature by 2017).  The proposed purchase
does not materially increase the theoretical losses of Assured's
insured portfolio or materially reduce the pro-forma capital
position upon the transaction close.

The stable outlook on Assured reflects its strong competitive
profile and very strong capital adequacy even with the proposed
acquisition.

S&P could lower its rating on Assured below the 'AA' category if
the current interest-yield and credit-spread compression
environment persists beyond the next 12 months and Assured's
public finance risk-adjusted pricing ratio remains at or less than
4%.  S&P could also lower the rating if the company exhibits
significant volatility from earnings or capital adequacy.  Based
on S&P's view of the new-issue U.S. public finance and financial
guarantee markets, S&P do not believe the business or financial
risk profiles of the company will change dramatically and
therefore do not expect to raise the ratings.

The complete list of ratings affected by this action will be
available in the coming days.  When available, the list can be
found on Standard & Poor's public Web site.  S&P's analysis of
these ratings actions is ongoing; S&P will post any additional
rating changes at the same location.

The CreditWatch Positive on Radian Asset is based on S&P's
expectation that the company's insured obligations will become
obligations of AGC.  S&P also expects that upon close of the
transaction, Radian Asset will be folded into AGC and dissolved.
S&P would maintain the rating on Radian Asset at the current level
if the transaction fails to occur.


REVEL AC: Requests $21 Million Increase in Bankruptcy Financing
---------------------------------------------------------------
Stephanie Gleason, writing for Daily Bankruptcy Review, reported
that the closed Revel Casino Hotel in Atlantic City, N.J., wants
to tap millions of dollars of new bankruptcy financing to pay a
$26 million settlement with the city over its 2014 property taxes.

According to the report, the casino is asking a bankruptcy judge
to approve a new $21 million increase in availability, which
includes $19 million in new financing provided by Wells Fargo NA.
The financing will be combined with $7 million in cash on hand to
fund a $26 million settlement with Atlantic City and provide
enough cash to operate until Jan. 8, the report related.

                          About Revel AC

Revel AC, Inc. -- http://www.revelresorts.com/-- owns and
operates Revel, a Las Vegas-style, beachfront entertainment resort
and casino located on the Boardwalk in the south inlet of Atlantic
City, New Jersey.

Revel AC Inc. and five of its affiliates sought bankruptcy
protection (Bankr. D.N.J. Lead Case No. 14-22654) on June 19,
2014, to pursue a quick sale of the assets.

The Chapter 11 cases are assigned to Judge Gloria M. Burns.  The
Debtors' Chapter 11 cases are jointly consolidated for procedural
purposes.

Revel AC estimated assets ranging from $500 million to $1 billion,
and the same amount of liabilities.

White & Case, LLP, and Fox Rothschild, LLP, serve as the Debtors'
Counsel, and Moelis & Company, LLC, is the investment banker.  The
Debtors' solicitation and claims agent is Alixpartners, LLP.

The prepetition first lenders are represented by Cadwalader,
Wickersham & Taft LLP.  The prepetition second lien lenders are
represented by Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP.  The
DIP agent is represented by Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP.

This is Revel AC's second trip to bankruptcy.  The company first
sought bankruptcy protection (Bankr. D.N.J. Lead Case No. 13-
16253) on March 25, 2013, with a prepackaged plan that reduced
debt by $1.25 billion.  Less than two months later on May 15,
2013, the 2013 Plan was confirmed and became effective on May 21,
2013.


SEVENTY SEVEN: S&P Slashes Rating to 'B+' From 'BB-'
----------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, on Dec. 22, 2014, took rating
actions on several U.S. oil and gas oilfield services (OFS)
companies after completing a review of the sector.  The review
follows a precipitous and severe decline in oil prices that will
lead to meaningful reductions to exploration and production (E&P)
capital spending in 2015 and 2016.  S&P believes, on average,
capital spending for E&P could be down approximately 25%,
affecting OFS companies' top lines as well as margins.  Lower
spending will affect some companies more than others, but all
companies will face weaker credit protection measures.  S&P
expects weaker credit protection measures over the next 12-24
months.

S&P has taken actions on these companies:

   -- S&P is placing its 'BBB-' corporate credit rating on
      Weatherford International PLC and all ratings on its debt on
      CreditWatch with negative implications.  The CreditWatch
      listing reflects the possibility that weakening demand and
      heightened price competition could undermine the benefits of
      the company's recent extensive cost cutting and deleveraging
      actions.  As part of S&P's review, it will assess additional
      measures the company plans to pursue in the face of
      deteriorating market conditions.

   -- S&P is lowering its corporate credit rating on Noble Corp.
      to 'BBB' from 'BBB+' and removing the rating from
      CreditWatch, where it placed it with negative implications
      on Oct. 19, 2014.  The outlook is stable.  The downgrade
      reflects weaker credit measures resulting from S&P's lower
      estimates for day-rates and utilization, particularly in the
      mid-water asset category, where Noble has a significant
      concentration.  Most of its rigs in this category have
      contracts rolling off in the next 12 to 18 months, further
      intensifying re-contracting risk amid a declining commodity
      price environment.  Furthermore, S&P is removing the
      "favorable" rating analysis as a result of a more aggressive
      financial policy due to the company's recently announced
      sizable share repurchase authorization.

   -- S&P is affirming its 'BBB' corporate credit and unsecured
      debt ratings on Nabors Industries Ltd., as well as the
      company's 'A-2' short-term commercial paper rating, but
      revising the outlook to negative from stable.  The outlook
      revision reflects S&P's revised forecast and its more
      pessimistic outlook for 2015 and 2016, as well as greater
      uncertainty surrounding its base-case forecast in light of
      very difficult operating conditions given recent crude oil
      price declines.  S&P expects that reduced demand, lower
      levels of drilling activity, and heightened competition in
      the onshore rig market will increase re-contracting risk
      over the next two years, resulting in downward pressure on
      day-rates, and lower utilization.  S&P expects profitability
      and credit measures will be weaker than previously expected,
      including funds from operations (FFO) to total debt to range
      between 30% and 35% over the next year and weakening further
      in 2016, compared with S&P's earlier expectation for FFO to
      total debt to generally range between 40% and 45% over the
      next two years.

   -- S&P is lowering its corporate credit rating on Hercules
      Offshore Inc. to 'B-' from 'B'.  The outlook is stable.  The
      downgrade reflects S&P's estimate for increased leverage as
      a result of lower day-rates and utilization for the
      company's offshore rigs, both in the company's Domestic
      Offshore and International Offshore segments.  S&P's
      estimates of lower utilization and day-rates are a result of
      S&P's expectation of decreased offshore drilling given lower
      oil prices.  S&P now expects FFO to debt to be below 12% and
      debt to EBITDA to exceed 5x in 2015.

   -- S&P is revising its rating outlook on Utex Industries Inc.
      to negative from stable and affirming its 'B' corporate
      credit rating on the company.  The negative outlook reflects
      S&P's expectation that the company's leverage could exceed
      7.5x in 2015 due to E&P company capital spending reductions
      and declining demand for oilfield services following the
      significant drop in crude oil prices and S&P's revised crude
      oil pricing expectations for 2015 and beyond.

   -- S&P is lowering its rating on Seventy Seven Energy to 'B+'
      from 'BB-'.  The outlook is negative.  The downgrade
      reflects S&P's estimate for increased leverage as a result
      of the projected slowdown in demand for land-based oilfield
      services, driven by S&P's reduced oil price deck
      assumptions, as well as S&P's revised assessment of the
      company's business risk now that the company's contracts
      with former parent Chesapeake Energy are more market based.

   -- S&P is revising its rating outlook on FTS International Inc.
      to negative from stable and affirming its 'B' corporate
      credit rating on the company.  The outlook revision reflects
      S&P's expectation that credit measures will weaken due to a
      projected slowdown in demand for fracking services and a
      drop in EBITDA margins, driven by our reduced oil price deck
      assumptions.  However, the company's liquidity remains
      "strong."

SIGA TECHNOLOGIES: To Assume & Seek Modification of BARDA Deal
--------------------------------------------------------------
Following recent discussions with representatives of the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) and the Biomedical Advanced Research and
Development Authority (BARDA) concerning SIGA Technologies, Inc.'s
smallpox antiviral drug Tecovirimat (also known as ST-246), SIGA
expects the provisional dosage for Tecovirimat will be increased
to 600 mg administered twice daily (600 mg BID or 1,200 mg per
day) from the previous provisional dosage of 600 mg once daily (or
600 mg per day). To accommodate the new provisional dosage, SIGA
anticipates extending its delivery schedule of Tecovirimat to
BARDA.

The extended delivery schedule is expected to result in the
delivery of approximately 360,000 courses at the new provisional
dosage in the first quarter of 2015 rather than approximately
710,000 courses as contemplated previously. Accordingly, there
will be a reduction in expected payments to SIGA for the delivery
of those courses from approximately $89 million to approximately
$48 million. Deliveries of additional courses in fulfillment of
the BARDA contract are expected to occur in 2016, at which time
SIGA expects to receive payments of approximately $41 million. In
addition, SIGA may be required to supplement previously delivered
courses of Tecovirimat, at no additional cost to BARDA, with
additional dosages so that all of the courses previously delivered
to BARDA will be at the new provisional dosage.

It is anticipated that SIGA's contract with BARDA will be modified
to reflect the increase in dosage and extended delivery schedule.
This modification is subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy
Court which SIGA intends to seek in connection with the assumption
of the BARDA contract (as so modified) under the provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code.

SIGA TECHNOLOGIES: Creditors Committee Taps Guggenheim as Advisor
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Bankruptcy Court will convene a hearing on Jan. 13, 2015, at
11:00 a.m., to consider the creditors' committee's motion to
retain Guggenheim Securities, LLC, as financial advisor and
investment banker.   Objections, if any, are due Jan. 6, at 4:00
p.m.

The Statutory Creditors' Committee in the Chapter 11 case of Siga
Technologies, Inc., requested that the retention be effective as
of Dec. 1, 2014.  (Eastern Time)

Guggenheim Securities will, among other things:

   1. assist the Committee to evaluate SIGA's operational and
financial affairs

   2. assist efforts to build consensus among stakeholders;

   3. review and analyze SIGA's business, operations, financial
condition and prospects;

   4. review and analyze SIGA's business plans and financial
projections prepared by SIGA's senior management, if available;
and

   5. evaluation of SIGA's liquidity and debt capacity.

The proposed fee structure is summarized as:

   a) a non-refundable cash fee of $150,000 per month;

   b) starting with the third monthly fee actually paid to
Guggenheim Securities, and continuing thereafter with each
subsequent monthly fee actually paid to Guggenheim Securities, 25%
of each monthly fee will be credited, upon consummation of a
transaction, against the transaction fee.  For the avoidance of
doubt, no portion of the first two monthly fees will be credited
against any transaction fee or other amount.

   c) a one-time cash fee (a transaction fee) in an amount equal
to (i) $2,000,000 if the Committee either supports or does not
file and prosecute any material objection to a transaction (or, if
the Committee does file and prosecute any such material objection
to a transaction, such objection is either withdrawn, settled or
otherwise consensually resolved) or (ii) $1,500,000 if the
Committee objects to a Transaction and such objection is not
withdrawn, settled or otherwise consensually resolved.

   d) a one-time cash fee of $500,000 (an expert fee) if
Guggenheim Securities produces an expert report or otherwise
provides expert testimony in the form of deposition or live
testimony in connection with an expert report.

SPECIALTY HOSPITAL: Sale to DCA Okayed; DIP Loan Order Modified
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. S. Martin Teel, Jr., of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Columbia issued a second order extending and modifying
the final order authorizing Specialty Hospital of Washington LLC
and its debtor-affiliates to (i) access debtor-in-possession
financing from the DIP lender, DCA Acquisitions LLC, and (ii) sell
substantially all of their assets free and clear of liens to the
DIP Lender.

The second extension order was negotiated between the Debtors
and DCA in good faith and at arms' length.  The second extension
order will benefit the Debtors' estates, creditors and parties in
interest by facilitating the closing the of sale of the Debtors'
assets and provide for continued funding of the Debtors'
operations and chapter 11 costs, subject to certain conditions.

The key terms of the second extension order:

a) Closing Date. The closing date under the asset purchase
   agreement was extended to Dec. 19, 2014.

b) DIP Financing. The DIP loan provided will be extended
   through the extended closing date, subject to the continued
   protections of the final DIP order, the first and second
   extension orders, and the amended approved budget, attached
   to the second extension order.

c) Increased DIP Borrowings. The amount the Debtors are authorized
   to borrow under the DIP loan will be increased to approximately
   $37.5 million, with such increase becoming an obligation of the
   Debtors under the DIP loan in accordance with the DIP Term
   Sheet and the final DIP order

d) DIP Protections. All of the rights, protections, claims and
   waivers granted to or benefiting DCA in the final DIP order
   will be extended to and apply to any and all increases in the
   amount of the DIP loan Obligations set forth under the second
   extension order and second amended approved budget, including,
   without limitation, the granting of the senior superpriority
   administrative expense claims and senior priming liens and
   waiver of surcharge and subordination rights granted to DCA to
   secure all obligations arising under the DIP loan.

e) Professional Fees. Notwithstanding any increase in any amounts
   budgeted for the payment of estate professionals contained
   in the second amended approved budget, the second extension
   order preserves DCA's rights to challenge the final allowance
   and payment of any fees and expenses of estate retained
   professionals in these cases, and all such estate retained
   professionals retain and reserve their rights to contest any
   such challenge.

f) Workers' Compensation Policy Refund. The second extension order
   provides that any unearned premiums payable to the Debtors in
   the event of early termination of the new policy are subject to
   the senior superpriority administrative expense claims and
   senior priming liens of the DIP lender, and any such unearned
   premiums will be immediately paid to the DIP lender upon
   receipt by the Debtors.

g) Continuation of DIP Protections. Nothing contained in the
   second extension order voids, decreases, diminishes, or
   disallows the validity, amount or priority of the senior
   superpriority administrative expense claims, the senior
   priming liens, the adequate protection liens or the junior
   superpriority administrative expense claims.

h) No Other Modifications. No provisions of the final DIP order
   or Sale Order are amended, modified or altered except as
   expressly set forth in the first or second extension orders.
   All provisions, obligations, rights, claims, reservations of
   rights, and waivers contained in the final DIP order and the
   Sale Order will continue in full force and effect unmodified,
   unless expressly amended or modified by the first or second
   extension orders.

Additionally, other than extending key deadlines and increasing
the DIP loan amount, the Second Extension Order preserves the
status quo.  Indeed, if the Court does not approve the Second
Extension Order, the sale process could be sidelined and the
Debtors' ongoing operations threatened, which would not be in any
party's interests or the interests of the Debtors' patients.

Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, disclosing a net
loss of $5.14 million on $2,000 of revenues for the three months

lending transactions, and the original notes, mortgages and

----------------------------------------------------------
Techprecision Corporation filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, disclosing
a net loss of $649,000 on $4.57 million of net sales for the three
months ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared to a net loss of $819,000 on

KPMG LLP, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements for the

the Company was not in compliance with the fixed charges and
interest coverage financial covenants under their credit facility,
and the Bank has not agreed to waive the non-compliance with the
covenants.  Since the Company is in default, the Bank has the
right to accelerate payment of the debt in full upon 60 days
written notice.  The Company has suffered recurring losses from
operations, and the Company's liquidity may not be sufficient to
meet its debt service requirements as they come due over the next
twelve months.  These circumstances raise substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

UTEX INDUSTRIES: S&P Revises Outlook to Negative; Keeps 'B' CCR
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, on Dec. 22, 2014, took rating
actions on several U.S. oil and gas oilfield services (OFS)
companies after completing a review of the sector.  The review
follows a precipitous and severe decline in oil prices that will
lead to meaningful reductions to exploration and production (E&P)
capital spending in 2015 and 2016.  S&P believes, on average,
capital spending for E&P could be down approximately 25%,
affecting OFS companies' top lines as well as margins.  Lower
spending will affect some companies more than others, but all
companies will face weaker credit protection measures.  S&P
expects weaker credit protection measures over the next 12-24
months.

S&P has taken actions on these companies:

   -- S&P is placing its 'BBB-' corporate credit rating on
      Weatherford International PLC and all ratings on its debt on
      CreditWatch with negative implications.  The CreditWatch
      listing reflects the possibility that weakening demand and
      heightened price competition could undermine the benefits of
      the company's recent extensive cost cutting and deleveraging
      actions.  As part of S&P's review, it will assess additional
      measures the company plans to pursue in the face of
      deteriorating market conditions.

   -- S&P is lowering its corporate credit rating on Noble Corp.
      to 'BBB' from 'BBB+' and removing the rating from
      CreditWatch, where it placed it with negative implications
      on Oct. 19, 2014.  The outlook is stable.  The downgrade
      reflects weaker credit measures resulting from S&P's lower
      estimates for day-rates and utilization, particularly in the
      mid-water asset category, where Noble has a significant
      concentration.  Most of its rigs in this category have
      contracts rolling off in the next 12 to 18 months, further
      intensifying re-contracting risk amid a declining commodity
      price environment.  Furthermore, S&P is removing the
      "favorable" rating analysis as a result of a more aggressive
      financial policy due to the company's recently announced
      sizable share repurchase authorization.

   -- S&P is affirming its 'BBB' corporate credit and unsecured
      debt ratings on Nabors Industries Ltd., as well as the
      company's 'A-2' short-term commercial paper rating, but
      revising the outlook to negative from stable.  The outlook
      revision reflects S&P's revised forecast and its more
      pessimistic outlook for 2015 and 2016, as well as greater
      uncertainty surrounding its base-case forecast in light of
      very difficult operating conditions given recent crude oil
      price declines.  S&P expects that reduced demand, lower
      levels of drilling activity, and heightened competition in
      the onshore rig market will increase re-contracting risk
      over the next two years, resulting in downward pressure on
      day-rates, and lower utilization.  S&P expects profitability
      and credit measures will be weaker than previously expected,
      including funds from operations (FFO) to total debt to range
      between 30% and 35% over the next year and weakening further
      in 2016, compared with S&P's earlier expectation for FFO to
      total debt to generally range between 40% and 45% over the
      next two years.

   -- S&P is lowering its corporate credit rating on Hercules
      Offshore Inc. to 'B-' from 'B'.  The outlook is stable.  The
      downgrade reflects S&P's estimate for increased leverage as
      a result of lower day-rates and utilization for the
      company's offshore rigs, both in the company's Domestic
      Offshore and International Offshore segments.  S&P's
      estimates of lower utilization and day-rates are a result of
      S&P's expectation of decreased offshore drilling given lower
      oil prices.  S&P now expects FFO to debt to be below 12% and
      debt to EBITDA to exceed 5x in 2015.

   -- S&P is revising its rating outlook on Utex Industries Inc.
      to negative from stable and affirming its 'B' corporate
      credit rating on the company.  The negative outlook reflects
      S&P's expectation that the company's leverage could exceed
      7.5x in 2015 due to E&P company capital spending reductions
      and declining demand for oilfield services following the
      significant drop in crude oil prices and S&P's revised crude
      oil pricing expectations for 2015 and beyond.

   -- S&P is lowering its rating on Seventy Seven Energy to 'B+'
      from 'BB-'.  The outlook is negative.  The downgrade
      reflects S&P's estimate for increased leverage as a result
      of the projected slowdown in demand for land-based oilfield
      services, driven by S&P's reduced oil price deck
      assumptions, as well as S&P's revised assessment of the
      company's business risk now that the company's contracts
      with former parent Chesapeake Energy are more market based.

   -- S&P is revising its rating outlook on FTS International Inc.
      to negative from stable and affirming its 'B' corporate
      credit rating on the company.  The outlook revision reflects
      S&P's expectation that credit measures will weaken due to a
      projected slowdown in demand for fracking services and a
      drop in EBITDA margins, driven by our reduced oil price deck
      assumptions.  However, the company's liquidity remains
      "strong."

WINDSOR PETROLEUM: Court Issues Amended Plan Confirmation Order
---------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Peter Walsh of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware on Dec. 23, 2014, issued amended findings of fact,
conclusions of law, and order confirming the amended plan of
reorganization of Windsor Petroleum Transport Corporation and its
debtor affiliates.

The Amended Plan Confirmation Order provides that the Plan and
Disclosure Statement describe in specific and conspicuous language
all acts to be enjoined and identify the entities that are subject
to the injunctions, satisfying Rule 3016(c) of the Federal Rules
of Bankruptcy Procedure to the extent applicable.

As previously reported by The Troubled Company Reporter, Judge
Walsh, on Nov. 20, 2014, issued an order confirming the Debtors'
Amended Plan of Reorganization, which is premised on a
restructuring support agreement negotiated with bondholders who
hold more than 70% of the Company's 7.84% secured notes in a
principal amount of $188,590,000 as of the Petition Date.

The key components of the Plan are as follows:

   * Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims, including
     Allowed Claims of trade vendors, suppliers, customers and
     charterers, will not be affected by the filing of the
     bankruptcy cases and, to the extent those Claims have not
     been paid in full in the ordinary course of business during
     the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Claims will be
     reinstated and left unimpaired under the Plan.  General
     Unsecured Claims are estimated to total $2,975,000.

   * Holders of all Allowed Administrative Claims, Priority Tax
     Claims, statutory fees, Other Priority Claims and Other
     Secured Claims will receive payment in full, in Cash.

   * All Claims under the Secured Notes Indenture will be
     converted into 100% of the ownership units of New Holdco.

The Amended Plan Confirmation Order also provides that the unpaid
reasonable fees and costs of the Supporting Noteholders, including
the costs and expenses of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton &
Garrison, LLP, Landis Rath & Cobb LLP and Houlihan Lokey Capital
Inc. will be allowed as administrative expense claims.

Securities and Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form
10-Q, disclosing a net loss of $369,000 on $257,000 of net sales

                   About Yarway Corporation

Yarway Corporation sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D. Del.
Case No. 13-11025) on April 22, 2013, to deal with claims arising
from asbestos containing products it allegedly sold as early as
the 1920s.

Yarway was founded in 1908 by Robert Yarnall and Bernard Waring as
the Simplex Engineering Company and originally manufactured pipe
clamps, steam traps, valves and controls.  Based in Pennsylvania,
Yarway was a privately-owned company until 1986 when KeyStone
International, Inc. bought equity in the company.  Yarway became a
unit of Tyco International Ltd. when Tyco purchased KeyStone in
1997.

Yarway's asbestos-related liabilities derive from Yarway's (i)
purported use of asbestos-containing gaskets and packing,
manufactured by others, in its production of steam valves and
traps from the 1920s to 1970s, and (ii) alleged manufacture of
expansion joint packing that was allegedly made up of a compound
of Teflon and asbestos from the 1940s to the 1970s.

Over the past five years, about 10,021 new asbestos claims have
been asserted against Yarway, including 1,014 in Yarway's 2013
fiscal year ending March 31, 2013.

The Debtor estimated assets and debts in excess of $100 million as
of the Chapter 11 filing.

Attorneys at Cole, Schotz, Meisel, Forman & Leonard, P.A. and
Sidley Austin LLP serve as the Debtor's counsel in the Chapter 11
case.  Logan and Co. is the claims and notice agent.

On May 6, 2013, the U.S. Trustee for Region 3, appointed an
official committee of asbestos personal injury claimants.  The
Committee tapped Elihu Inselbuch, Esq. at Caplin & Drysdale,
Chartered, as lead bankruptcy counsel.


* Bankruptcy Lawyer Suspended in Maine & New Hampshire
------------------------------------------------------
Jeremey A. Miller, Esq., has been suspended from the practice of
law in the states of Maine and New Hampshire.

On Oct. 1, 2014, the Attorney Discipline Office (ADO) filed a
certified copy of an order of the Maine Supreme Judicial Court, in
which the court determined that Mr. Miller violated the Maine
Rules of Professional Conduct and ordered that he be suspended
from the practice of law in Maine for a period of three months,
with the entire suspension period conditionally suspended from
implementation.  The Maine Supreme Judicial Court found that
Attorney Miller violated the rules of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Maine when he filed a bankruptcy petition and
supporting documents using the court's electronic case filing
system despite the fact that the supporting documents did not
contain an original signature of the client, as required.  The
court found that Attorney Miller's conduct, though unintentional,
violated Maine Rules of Professional Conduct 1.3, 3.3(a), and
8.4(a) and (d).

Attorney Miller is suspended from the practice of law in Maine for
three months, but that the suspension itself be suspended on the
condition that Attorney Miller comply with certain conditions.

In accordance with Supreme Court Rule 37(12), which governs
reciprocal discipline, the State of New Hampshire Supreme Court
issued an order requiring that a copy of the Maine Supreme
Judicial Court's order be served on Attorney Miller.  The court
ordered Attorney Miller and the Professional Conduct Committee
(PCC) to inform the court if either contended that the imposition
of identical or substantially similar discipline would be
unwarranted.  The PCC notified the court that it believed that a
three month suspension, conditionally suspended, was warranted.
Attorney Miller filed no response.

Rule 37(12)(d) provides for the imposition of the same or
substantially similar discipline by the Supreme Court unless the
respondent attorney or the PCC demonstrates, or the court finds,
based on the face of the record from which the discipline is
predicated, that: (1) The procedure [followed by the jurisdiction
imposing discipline] was so lacking in notice or opportunity to be
heard as to constitute a deprivation of due process; or (2) The
imposition of the same or substantially similar discipline by the
court would result in grave injustice; or (3) The misconduct
established warrants substantially different discipline in New
Hampshire.

Having reviewed the order of the Maine Supreme Judicial Court, the
New Hampshire Supreme Court said it is unable to find on the face
of the record any basis for imposing substantially different
discipline. See Rule 37(12) (d).  It is clear from the record that
Attorney Miller had an opportunity to participate, and did
participate, in the Maine disciplinary proceedings.  The court
does not find that the imposition of a three-month suspension,
conditionally suspended, would result in grave injustice or that
Attorney Miller's misconduct would warrant substantially different
discipline in New Hampshire.  Accordingly, the court concludes
that the imposition of the same discipline is warranted.

It orders that Attorney Jeremey A. Miller be suspended from the
practice of law in New Hampshire for a period of three months, and
that the implementation of the entire suspension period be
suspended on the condition that Attorney Miller comply with all of
the terms set forth in the order of the Maine Supreme Judicial
Court. If the ADO and/ or the PCC determines at any time that
Attorney Miller has not met the conditions set forth in the order
of the Maine Supreme Judicial Court, the PCC shall hold further
proceedings to determine what additional action should be taken,
which may include the filing of a request with the court to impose
the three-month suspension.

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 by e-mail.

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 the nation's bankruptcy courts.  The
list includes links to freely downloadable of these small-dollar
petitions in Acrobat PDF documents.

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.
