ACG CREDIT: Court Approves Majorie as Litigation Counsel
--------------------------------------------------------
ACG Credit Company II, LLC sought and obtained authorization from
the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to employ
Francis B. Majorie and The Majorie Firm Ltd as special litigation
counsel to the Debtor and the estate.

Majorie's limited purpose is to defend against and assert
counterclaims with respect to the claims asserted by the plaintiff
in the SageCrest Litigation and any related appeals or
proceedings.

Windmill Management, LLC, and Alan Milton (SageCrest's principal),
and ACG Credit Company, LLC, Art Capital Group, LLC, ACG Finance
Company, LLC, and Ian Peck -- jointly and severally, the "Other
Counterparties" -- retained Majorie to represent them in the
SageCrest Litigation on a modified contingent fee basis.  Majorie
agrees to look solely to the Other Counterparties for compensation
and payment of costs, so there will not be any out of pocket cost
to the Estate.  This is an extremely considerable savings to the
Estate, which would be forced to incur well over $100,000 of fees
and costs if separate counsel were retained.

Majorie can be reached at:

       Francis B. Majorie, Esq.
       THE MAJORIE FIRM LTD.
       3514 Cedar Springs Road
       Dallas, TX 75225
       Tel: (214) 522-7400

                    About ACG Credit Company II

New York-based ACG Credit Company II, LLC, filed a Chapter 11
bankruptcy petition (Bankr. D. Del. Case No. 14-11500) on June 17,
2014.  The Debtor estimated $10 million to $50 million in assets
and $1 million to $10 million in liabilities.  Ian Peck signed the
petition as director.  Gellert Scali Busenkell & Brown, LLC, serves
as the Debtor's counsel.


AFFIRMATIVE INSURANCE: Jon Old Has 17.8% Stake as of Dec. 31
------------------------------------------------------------
Jonathan W. Old, III, and his affiliates disclosed that as of
Dec. 31, 2014, they beneficially owned 2,875,600 shares of common
stock of Affirmative Insurance Holdings, Inc., representing 17.8
percent of the shares outstanding.  A copy of the regulatory filing
is available at http://is.gd/BsloYx

                   About Affirmative Insurance

Addison, Tex.-based Affirmative Insurance Holdings, Inc., is a
distributor and producer of non-standard personal automobile
insurance policies for individual consumers in targeted geographic
markets.  Non-standard personal automobile insurance policies
provide coverage to drivers who find it difficult to obtain
insurance from standard automobile insurance companies due to
their lack of prior insurance, age, driving record, limited
financial resources or other factors.  Non-standard personal
automobile insurance policies generally require higher premiums
than standard automobile insurance policies for comparable
coverage.

Affirmative Insurance reported net income of $30.71 million on
$246 million of total revenues for the year ended Dec. 31,
2013, as compared with a net loss of $51.9 million on $209.8
million of total revenues in 2012.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $365
million in total assets, $492 million in total liabilities and
a $127 million total stockholders' deficit.

KPMG LLP, in Dallas, Texas, issued a "going concern" qualification
on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2013.  The independent auditors noted that the Company's
recent history of recurring losses from operations and its
probable failure to comply with certain financial covenants in the
senior secured and subordinated credit facilities in 2014 raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern.


ALEXZA PHARMACEUTICALS: EVP Research and Development Quits
----------------------------------------------------------
James V. Cassella's employment with Alexza Pharmaceuticals, Inc.,
will terminate effective as of Jan. 30, 2015, according to a
regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Dr. Cassella is currently the Company's executive vice president,
research and development, and chief scientific officer.  

Dr. Cassella's resignation was not the result of any disagreement
with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies
or practices, or regarding the general direction of the Company.

                           About Alexza

Mountain View, California-based Alexza Pharmaceuticals, Inc., was
incorporated in the state of Delaware on Dec. 19, 2000, as FaxMed,
Inc.  In June 2001, the Company changed its name to Alexza

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $65.8
million in total assets, $115 million in total liabilities and
total stockholders' deficit of $48.8 million.


AMERICAN EAGLE: Moody's Lowers Corporate Family Rating to 'Ca'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded American Eagle Energy
Corporation's (American Eagle Energy or AMZG) Corporate Family
Rating (CFR) to Ca from Caa1, its Probability of Default Rating to
Ca-PD from Caa1-PD, and its $175 million second lien secured notes
rating to Ca from Caa1. Moody's also lowered AMZG's Speculative
Grade Liquidity Rating to SGL-4 from SGL-3. The rating outlook is
stable.

"The downgrade of American Eagle Energy's ratings reflect the
company's weak liquidity profile and unsustainable capital
structure," commented Gretchen French, Moody's Vice President.
"With the company facing cyclically low oil prices in 2015 and into
2016, the risk of default or a debt restructuring, including the
potential for a distressed exchange, has increased."

American Eagle Energy Corporation: Rating Actions

  Corporate Family Rating, Downgraded to Ca from Caa1

  Probability of Default Rating, Downgraded to Ca-PD from Caa1-PD

  $175 Million Secured Notes due in 2019, Downgraded to Ca (LGD 3)

  from Caa1 (LGD 4)

  Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, Lowered to SGL-4 from SGL-3

Ratings Rationale
  
American Eagle Energy's Ca CFR reflects its weak liquidity profile,
unsustainable capital structure in the current low oil price
environment, and its small size and scope of operations, with very
modest production levels that are in decline due to suspended
drilling operations. The company's proved developed reserves are
all concentrated in the highly seasonal northwest Divide County,
North Dakota, and production will begin to sequentially decline
starting in the first quarter of 2015. The company is undertaking
several efforts to shore up its liquidity profile, including
reducing capital spending and potential asset sales; however, the
timing and ultimate proceeds of the potential assets sales is
uncertain.

AMZG's SGL-4 Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating reflects a weak
liquidity profile through 2016. Constraints on the company's
liquidity include the company's inability to cover interest expense
with internally generated cash flow in a low oil price environment
($52 WTI in 2015 and $62 WTI in 2016, with a $10 fixed discount to
WTI on AMZG's production), the need to fund material accounts
payable balances in 2015, and the lack of access to its revolving
credit facility, given that its borrowing base on its revolving
credit facility has been reduced to zero. The company is focused on
shoring up cash balances, including suspending its drilling
operations, the monetization of all of its crude oil hedge
positions for $13 million, and considering potential non-core asset
sales.

The Ca rating on AMZG's $175 million of second priority senior
secured notes reflects both the overall Ca-PD probability of
default of the company and a Loss Given Default of LGD 3. The notes
have a first lien carve out for a first lien revolving credit
facility of the greater of $60 million or 20% of adjusted
consolidated net tangible assets; however, AMZG's revolver
currently has a borrowing base of zero. In the event of default,
Moody's have assumed a recovery rating in the 40%-50% range based
on a low oil price environment and distressed sale.

The rating outlook is stable, and assumes a recovery rate in the
event of default or a distressed exchange of between 40%-50%.
Moody's could downgrade the ratings if it appears that in the event
of default or a distressed exchange, recovery on the bonds appears
to be less than 30%. Moody's could upgrade the ratings if the
company improves its liquidity profile and reduces its debt levels
in order to support EBITDA coverage of interest of at least 1.0x
through a cyclical low oil price environment.

The principal methodology used in this rating was the Global
Independent Exploration and Production Industry published in
December 2011. Other methodologies used include Loss Given Default
for Speculative-Grade Non-Financial Companies in the U.S., Canada
and EMEA published in June 2009.

American Eagle Energy Corporation is an independent oil and gas
exploration and production company headquartered in Littleton, CO.



AMERICAN NANO: Paritz & Company Raises Going Concern Doubt
----------------------------------------------------------
American Nano Silicon Technologies, Inc., filed with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission on Jan. 7, 2015, its annual
report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Sept. 30, 2014.

Paritz & Company, P.A., expressed substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern, citing the
Company's current liabilities exceed its current assets by
$14.8 million at Sept. 30, 2014.  The current cash and inventory
level will not be sufficient to support the Company's resumption
of its normal operations and repayments of its loans.  In addition,
the Company has suffered negative cash flows for past
two years.

The Company reported a net loss of $6.37 million on $1.76 million
of revenues for the fiscal year ended Sept. 30, 2014, compared
with a net loss of $7.17 million on $798,000 of revenue in fiscal
2013.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed
$22.9 million in total assets, $21.02 million in total liabilities,
and stockholders' equity of $1.93 million.

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

AMERICAN POWER: Van Steenwyk Reports 5.3% Stake as of Jan. 5
------------------------------------------------------------
Matthew Van Steenwyk disclosed in a regulatory filing with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission that as of Jan. 5, 2015, he
beneficially owned 2,704,260 shares of common stock of

shares outstanding.  A copy of the regulatory filing is available

stockholders of $3.25 million on $6.28 million of net sales for

for the year ended Sept. 30, 2013.

As of Sept. 30, 2014, the Company had $8.52 million in total
assets, $5.49 million in total liabilities and $3.02 million in

AMERICAN REALTY: S&P Retains 'BB' CCR on CreditWatch Negative
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said its ratings on American
Realty Capital Properties Inc., including the 'BB' corporate credit
rating and the 'BB+' issue-level ratings remain on CreditWatch with
negative implications, pending the completion of board
investigations and the external auditor review of the company's
financial statements.

The update follows the recent announcement that the company's
senior noteholder group agreed to not issue a notice of default
before March 3, 2015, or one day after the March 2nd deadline
agreed between the company and its bank lending group for
submitting third quarter financial statements (as well as revised
first- and second-quarter 2014 statements).  In the event ARCP does
not meet the March 2nd deadline and bondholders issue a notice of
default on March 3rd, ARCP would have until March 20th to cure the
default under the recent senior noteholder agreement. ARCP also
purportedly received a notice of default from the trustee under the
indenture governing it convertible notes.  If the notice is valid,
ARCP would have 60 days to cure the default by delivering the
required financial statements.  However, ARCP may elect on or prior
to the 59th day to pay additional interest for a period of 180 days
(0.25% per annum for 90 days and 0.5% for an additional 90 days),
which would prevent the convertible noteholders from accelerating
repayment of the convertible notes. ARCP expects to meet the March
2nd deadline, which would eliminate the risk of any defaults.

S&P continues to believe there is uncertainty regarding the
company's ability to both manage and oversee the large portfolio
that it has only recently assembled and the impact of the recent
events on ARCP's access to and cost of equity and debt capital.

Standard & Poor's will seek to resolve the CreditWatch placement
within the next 90 days, but this will depend upon a better
understanding of possible outcomes from the various audits and
investigations.  S&P will review any potential disclosures upon the
release of the board's investigation, any additional exposures from
the completion of the forensic audit, and other management or
governance changes that are being contemplated.  Upon completion of
S&P's review, it could lower the corporate credit rating or leave
the ratings unchanged.



AMPLIPHI BIOSCIENCES: Ernst & Young Hired as New Auditors
---------------------------------------------------------
AmpliPhi Biosciences Corporation dismissed PBMares, LLP, as its
independent registered public accounting firm on Jan. 20, 2015,
according to a regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission.  The decision to change auditors was approved
by the Audit Committee of the Board.

The reports of PBMares on the Company's financial statements for
each of the last two fiscal years contained an uncertainty
modification that there was substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.  

The Company said that during its two most recent fiscal years, and
in the interim period ending on the date of the Company's dismissal
of PBMares, the Company has not had any disagreements with PBMares
on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.

The Company has requested that PBMares furnish the Company with a
letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the
above statements.

The Company has engaged Ernst & Young LLP as its new independent
accountant as of Jan. 20, 2015.  During the Company's two most

with E&Y regarding any of the matters described in Item
304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.  The Audit Committee and
the Board have approved this engagement.

                      About Array Biopharma

Boulder, Colo.-based Array BioPharma Inc. is a biopharmaceutical
company focused on the discovery, development and
commercialization of targeted small-molecule drugs to treat
patients afflicted with cancer and inflammatory diseases.  Array
has four core proprietary clinical programs: ARRY-614 for
myelodysplastic syndromes, ARRY-520 for multiple myeloma, ARRY-797
for pain and ARRY-502 for asthma.  In addition, Array has 10
partner-funded clinical programs including two MEK inhibitors in
Phase 2: selumetinib with AstraZeneca and MEK162 with Novartis.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $135 million
in total assets, $173 million in total liabilities, and a
stockholders' deficit of $37.6 million.

"If we are unable to generate enough revenue from our existing or
new collaboration and license agreements when needed or to secure
additional sources of funding, it may be necessary to
significantly reduce the current rate of spending through further
reductions in staff and delaying, scaling back, or stopping
certain research and development programs, including more costly
Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials on our wholly-owned or co-
development programs as these programs progress into later stage
development.  Insufficient liquidity may also require us to
relinquish greater rights to product candidates at an earlier
stage of development or on less favorable terms to us and our
stockholders than we would otherwise choose in order to obtain up-
front license fees needed to fund operations.  These events could
prevent us from successfully executing our operating plan and, in
the future, could raise substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern," according to the quarterly report
for the period ended Sept. 30, 2014.


ARRAY BIOPHARMA: Has Agreement to Acquire Encorafenib
-----------------------------------------------------
Array BioPharma Inc. has reached a definitive agreement with
Novartis Pharma AG to acquire worldwide rights to encorafenib
(LGX818), a BRAF inhibitor currently in Phase 3 development.  This
agreement is conditional on the closing of transactions announced
by Novartis and GlaxoSmithKline PLC (GSK) on April 22, 2014, which
are expected to close in the first half of 2015, and the agreement
remains subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals.  Array
previously disclosed a definitive agreement with Novartis to regain
global rights to the Phase 3 MEK inhibitor binimetinib, the
material terms of which remain in place following this agreement.
In order to address competition concerns raised by the European
Commission, Array has agreed to obtain an experienced partner for
global development and European commercialization of both
binimetinib and encorafenib.  The European Commission is expected
to issue a decision regarding the Novartis-GSK transaction on
Jan. 28, 2015.

"Acquiring worldwide rights to encorafenib, an innovative
late-stage oncology product, represents a tremendous opportunity
for Array," said Ron Squarer, chief executive officer, Array
BioPharma.  "There are currently eleven active encorafenib clinical
trials, including the Phase 3 COLUMBUS trial in which encorafenib
is being studied in combination with binimetinib for BRAF+ melanoma
patients.  With rights to both encorafenib and binimetinib, Array
would enhance its position to broadly develop and commercialize
each product, as well as this MEK/BRAF combination, which may have
differentiating advantages when compared to available therapies."

Terms of the Agreement

Upon satisfaction of all conditions and closing of the deal, Array
will acquire global rights to encorafenib.  Other than a de minimis
payment due to Novartis from Array, there are no milestone payments
or royalties payable under this agreement by either party.
Novartis has agreed to provide transitional regulatory, clinical
development and manufacturing services and will assign or license
to Array all patent and other intellectual property rights Novartis
owns to the extent relating to encorafenib.  As part of the
transaction, Array has agreed to obtain an experienced partner for
global development and European commercialization of both
binimetinib and encorafenib.  If Array is unable to find a suitable
partner in the prescribed time period, a trustee would have the
right to sell such European rights.

Novartis will conduct and fund the COLUMBUS trial through the
earlier of June 30, 2016, or completion of last patient first
visit.  At that time, Array will assume responsibility for the
trial, while Novartis will reimburse Array for out-of-pocket costs
along with 50% of Array's full time equivalent (FTE) costs in
connection with completing the COLUMBUS trial.  Novartis is
responsible for conducting all other encorafenib trials until their
completion or transfer to Array for a defined transition period.
For all trials transferred to Array, Novartis will reimburse Array
for out-of-pocket costs and 50% of Array's FTE costs in connection
with completing the trials.

Novartis will supply encorafenib for clinical and commercial use
for up to 30 months after closing and will also assist Array in the
technology and manufacturing transfer of encorafenib.  Novartis
will also provide Array continued access to several Novartis
pipeline compounds for use in currently ongoing combination
studies, and possible future studies, including Phase 3 trials,
with encorafenib.  The effectiveness of the agreement is subject to
the receipt of regulatory approvals and to the consummation of the
Novartis-GSK transaction.

In addition, Array agreed to undertake to obtain certain third
party consents or waivers necessary for Array to consummate the
transactions under the Novartis Agreement.

ATHERTON FINANCIAL: Addresses Objections to Dismissal Bid
---------------------------------------------------------
Atherton Financial Building LLC responded to the limited objections
lodged against its motion for an order (1) authorizing the
disbursement of funds to creditors; and (2) dismissing its Chapter
11 case.

A limited objection was filed by Lucy Gao and comments were
submitted by the U.S. Trustee.

David B. Golubchik, Esq., at Levene, Neale, Bender, Yoo & Brill,
L.L.P., counsel to the Debtor, relates that pursuant to the
Dismissal Motion, the Debtor seeks Court authority to disburse
funds to pay all claims of the estate in full, including US Trustee
fees, and thereafter urges the Court to dismiss the case.  For its
part, the U.S. Trustee filed comments with respect to outstanding
quarter fees and the Debtor consents to payment of those fees.

Ms. Gao filed her limited opposition consenting to 100% of the
relief requested in the Dismissal Motion -- she simply asked that
if the Debtor's estate seeks to distribute funds to equity, that
disbursement should not occur at this time.  In response, the
Debtor asserts that it does not seek Court authority to distribute
funds to equity.  If the Dismissal Motion is granted, the Debtor
anticipates distributing funds to creditors while allowing it to
address its alleged equity dispute in a different forum.  The
Debtor clarifies that the Motion does not seek to make any
distributions to equity holders.

On a related note, the Debtor, including its counsel, wishes to
address the Limited Opposition asserting that Ms. Gao is the 100%
equity holder of the Debtor, which appears to be inconsistent with
the record.  The Debtor points to the retention agreement to retain
bankruptcy counsel, which was executed by Benjamin Kirk, the
designated agent of the Debtor, and Ms. Gao.  The retention
agreement refers to Mr. Kirk as the Sole Member and Manager of
Sunshine Valley, LLC, which Ms. Gao countersigned.  After
commencement of the case, the Debtor filed its Schedule of Equity
Holders, which was not disputed by Ms. Gao.  Although the Court
scheduled Dec. 16, 2014 as the deadline to file proofs of claim, no
proof of claim or proof of interest was filed asserting an equity
structure different from that set forth in the Schedule.  Based on
the foregoing, it appears that equity was properly disclosed and,
more importantly, not contested by anyone, the Debtor tells the
Court.

                        Dismissal Motion

The Debtor filed its Dismissal Motion after the sale of its
property for $14.3 million closed on Dec. 8, 2014, and all secured
claims and tax claims have been satisfied.  Pursuant to the Court's
order, the Debtor's counsel is holding over $3.5 million in its
client trust account pending further order of the Court.  After
payment of claims from escrow, the Debtor's remaining claims total
$246,923.  This takes into account: (1) the consensually
agreed-upon amount for Hue & Cry's unsecured claim of $2,430, and
(2) the outstanding balance of $0 currently owed to Travelers
Casualty Insurance Company of America.  The foregoing excludes the
Debtor's counsel's attorneys' fees and costs, which for purposes of
full disclosure, are estimated to be $25,000 over the $75,000
retainer received.

downgraded the ratings of Auxilium  including the Corporate Family
Rating to 'B3' from 'B2'.  "The downgrade reflects Moody's
expectations that declines in Testim, Auxilium's testosterone gel,
will materially reduce EBITDA in 2014, resulting in negative free
cash flow, a weakening liquidity profile, and extremely high
debt/EBITDA," said Moody's Senior Vice President Michael Levesque.

The TCR reported on Sept. 23, 2014, that Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services raised its corporate credit rating on Auxilium to 'CCC+'
following the announced restructuring program and a $50 million

BEER JOINT: Files for Chapter 7 Liquidation
-------------------------------------------
Rebecca Cooper at Washington Business Journal reports that The Beer
Joint Brewing Leesburg, LLC, filed on Jan. 13, 2015, a Chapter 7
bankruptcy petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern
District of Virginia, listing $100,000 to $500,000 in debts versus
less than $50,000 in assets.

According to Business Journal, the debtors listed in the filing
include utilities Dominion Virginia Power and Washington Gas and
the Virginia Department of Taxation.  Business Journal relates that
the Company appears to owe federal and state payroll taxes and
Leesburg meals taxes.

Business Journal states that Joseph Langone, Esq., serves as the

BLACK ELK: S&P Withdraws 'CCC-' CCR at Company's Request
--------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it withdrew its ratings on
Black Elk Energy Offshore Services LLC, including the 'CCC-'
corporate credit rating and 'CCC' senior secured issue rating, at
the company's request.

S&P recently lowered its ratings on Black Elk following a sector
review of rated oil and gas exploration and production (E&P)
companies that stemmed from a reduction in our oil and gas price
assumptions.  S&P is now withdrawing its ratings on the company at
the company's request.



BLUE JACKET: Will Remain Open, To Add Lunch Menu
------------------------------------------------
Alison Bauter at Milwaukee Business Journal reports that Blue
Jacket Bar & Restaurant owners Laura and Tom van Heijningen have
assured that the restaurant will remain open and that for the first
time it will add a lunch menu.

The filing represents the best route to restructure the original
debt from opening the restaurant, Business Journal relates, citing
Ms. van Heijningen.  The report quoted her as saying, "This is a
very good thing for Blue Jacket.  The business is doing good --
we're growing."

Business Journal recalls that after the van Heijningens purchased
the 150-year-old building at 135 E. National Avenue in 2012, they
found out it needed a complete overhaul, making the project more
expensive, prolonged and "convoluted" than anticipated.

Terry L. Johnson, CPA, in Casselberry, Florida, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013.  The independent auditor noted
that the Company has incurred a deficit of approximately $2.5
million and has used approximately $400,000 of cash due to its
operating activities in the two years ended Dec. 31, 2013.  The
Company may not have adequate readily available resources to fund
operations through Dec. 31, 2014.  This raises substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

rating to the senior secured first lien term loan and senior
secured revolving credit facility and a definitive Caa2 (LGD 6,
90%) rating to the senior secured second lien term loan borrowed by
Bridge Finco LLC. Bridge Finco LLC is a financing vehicle
subsidiary of Bridge HoldCo 4 Ltd, the ultimate parent company for
the Bridon restricted group. The B3 corporate family rating (CFR)
and B3-PD probability of default rating (PDR) of Bridge HoldCo as
well as the positive outlook remain unchanged.

Moody's definitive ratings are in line with the provisional ratings
assigned on 12 November 2014.

Ratings Rationale

Bridon's B3 rating is supported by the group's market position as a
leading manufacturer of wire ropes that are safety and/or mission
critical for asset performance in a diverse range of end markets.
Moody's note however that demand in the majority of end markets is
cyclical and might therefore negatively impact operating
profitability adversely if one or multiple sectors are in a
downturn. Balancing this exposure is its low dependence on new
projects as the majority of demand is driven by replacement
activities, which brings some visibility to revenues. Strong ties
with leading global engineering companies and the fact that
Bridon's ropes represent a small portion of operational costs of
major miners and oil & gas companies further support Bridon's
business profile. The rating also positively considers historical
earnings stability.

On a more negative note, the rating is constrained by the fairly
small scale of Bridon as indicated by sales of about GBP262 million
in the LTM period as of June 2014, albeit with solid geographic
diversification. The rating also considers that forecasted growth
in sales and profitability might be challenging to achieve
considering current weakness in oil prices which could trigger
capex cuts at major oil companies and subsequently stable or even
slightly reducing number of rigs. Also, Moody's do not foresee a
major recovery in mining, which could prevent forecasted restocking
activities of certain miners that are strained for cash. In
addition, Moody's caution that volatility of raw material prices,
in particular for steel rod could result in some margin volatility
should Bridon not be able to pass these on through selling price
increases in a timely fashion. Given these factors, Bridon's
leverage is considered high at this point in time but positions the
group solidly in the B3 rating category, as evidenced by pro forma
debt/EBITDA as adjusted by Moody's of around 7x.

The positive outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Bridon will
be able to show profit improvements over the next 12-18 months,
largely on the back of a recovery in the group's mining revenues
and continued support from oil & gas as well as industrial
activities. In addition, restructuring and cost savings as well as
incremental profit generation from the acquisition of Scanrope
should further support increasing profit levels. This should allow
Bridon to improve its financial risk profile such that its
debt/EBITDA as defined by Moody's improves towards 6x.

Moody's view Bridon's liquidity profile as adequate. Internal
sources include cash on hand of around GBP10 million following the
refinancing and operating cash flow before working capital
requirements expected at around GBP20-25 million for the next
twelve months. In addition, Moody's note that Bridon has access to
a revolving credit facility amounting to USD40 million.

These sources should be sufficient to fund working cash
requirements, estimated at around 3% of sales, as well as capex
forecasted at around GBP8-10 million per year, with the RCF in
place to support seasonal working capital swings and issuance of
LoCs.

The B2 ratings assigned to the USD286 million senior secured first
lien term loan and the USD40 million revolving credit facility is
one notch above the group's corporate family rating. The rating on
these instruments reflect their contractual seniority in the
capital structure and benefits from a collateral package,
consisting of a pledge over the majority of the group's assets as
well as upstream guarantees from most of the group's operating
subsidiaries, representing more than 80% of aggregate EBITDA.
Lenders of the second lien term loan benefit from the same
collateral and guarantee package, but on a subordinated basis,
therefore the rating of the second lien term loan is two notches
below the group's B3 corporate family rating at Caa2.

A higher rating would require a track record of profitability
improvements that allows the group to materially deleverage.
Quantitatively, Moody's would consider a positive rating action if
Moody's adjusted debt/EBITDA were to decline to 6x times with
consistently positive free cash flow generation. Negative pressure
would build should Bridon's operating profitability decline from
current levels of around GBP40 million of EBITDA with subsequently
deteriorating leverage. A negative rating action could also be
triggered by a weakening liquidity profile due to Bridon incurring
material amounts of negative free cash flow and/or tightening
covenant headroom.

BROADWAY FINANCIAL: Paul Hudson Resigns From Boards
---------------------------------------------------
Paul C. Hudson tendered his resignation, effective Feb. 1, 2015,
from the Boards of Directors of Broadway Financial Corporation,
parent company of Broadway Federal Bank, and the Bank, according to
a regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission.  The resignation was not a result of any disagreement
with the Company on any matter relating to the Company's
operations, policies or practices.

                     About Broadway Financial

Los Angeles, Calif.-based Broadway Financial Corporation was
incorporated under Delaware law in 1995 for the purpose of
acquiring and holding all of the outstanding capital stock of
Broadway Federal Savings and Loan Association as part of the
Bank's conversion from a federally chartered mutual savings
association to a federally chartered stock savings bank.  In
connection with the conversion, the Bank's name was changed to
Broadway Federal Bank, f.s.b.  The conversion was completed, and
the Bank became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, in
January 1996.

The Company is regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System.  The Bank is regulated by the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation.

Broadway Financial reported a loss allocable to common
stockholders of $1.08 million in 2013, a loss allocable to common
stockholders of $693,000 in 2012 and a net loss available to
common shareholders of $15.4 million in 2011.


BROWNIE'S MARINE: Hires RBSM LLP as New Accountants
---------------------------------------------------
Brownie's Marine Group, Inc., engaged RBSM LLP as its independent
registered public accounting firm for the Company's fiscal year
ended Dec. 31, 2014, according to a regulatory filing with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission.  The decision to engage RBSM as
the Company's independent registered public accounting firm was
approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

Brownie's Marine was notified by L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC, that
Bradford has merged its SEC business with RBSM, LLP.  Pursuant to
this merger, the Company's financial statements will be audited by
RBSM, LLP, and no longer by Bradford.

The reports of Bradford on the Company's financial statements as of
and for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013, and 2012 contained the
explanatory paragraphs which noted that there was substantial doubt
as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern as the
Company has reported a net loss for the period then ended and had
an accumulated deficit as of the period then ended that raises
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

During the years ended Dec. 31, 2013, and 2012 and through Jan. 21,
2015, the Company has not had any disagreements with Bradford on
any matter.

During the two most recent fiscal years and through the Engagement
Date, the Company said it has not consulted with RBSM.

                      About Brownie's Marine

Brownie's Marine Group, Inc., does business through its wholly
owned subsidiary, Trebor Industries, Inc., d/b/a Brownie's Third
Lung, a Florida corporation.  The Company designs, tests,
manufactures and distributes recreational hookah diving, yacht
based scuba air compressor and nitrox generation systems, and
scuba and water safety products.  BWMG sells its products both on
a wholesale and retail basis, and does so from its headquarters
and manufacturing facility in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.  The
Company's common stock is quoted on the OTC BB under the symbol
"BWMG".  The Company's Web site is
http://www.browniesmarinegroup.com/  

Brownie's Marine reported a net loss of $788,000 in 2013, as
compared with a net loss of $2.01 million in 2012.

As of Sept. 30, 2014, the Company had $1.16 million in total
assets, $1.44 million in total liabilities, and a $285,000 total
stockholders' deficit.

                         Bankruptcy Warning

"During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company formed a joint
venture with one dive entity, and in the first quarter of 2012,
purchased the assets of another, with assumption of their retail
location lease in Boca Raton, Florida.  The Company accomplished
both transactions predominantly through issuance of restricted
common stock in BWMG.  The Company believed these transactions
would help generate sufficient future working capital.  Neither
endeavor did or has generated profit or positive cash-flow.
Therefore, effective May 31, 2013, the Company closed and ceased
operations at its retail facility.  As a result, the Company does
not expect that existing cash flow will be sufficient to fund
presently anticipated operations beyond the fourth quarter of
2014.  This raises substantial doubt about BWMG's ability to
continue as a going concern.  The Company will need to raise
additional funds and is currently exploring alternative sources of
financing.  We have issued a number of convertible debentures as
an interim measure to finance our working capital needs.  We have
historically paid for many legal and consulting services with
restricted stock to maximize working capital.  We intend to
continue this practice in the future when possible.  We have
implemented some cost saving measures and will continue to explore
more to reduce operating expenses.

"If we fail to raise additional funds when needed, or do not have
sufficient cash flows from sales, we may be required to scale back
or cease operations, liquidate our assets and possibly seek
bankruptcy protection.  The accompanying consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the
outcome of this uncertainty," the Company stated in the Form 10-Q
for the period ended Sept. 30, 2014.

C WONDER: Files for Chapter 11; Shutting Down Business
------------------------------------------------------
C. Wonder LLC said in a statement that it filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection in New Jersey on Jan. 22, 2015, after "a
combination of market pressures and mounting operating costs."

Citing a person familiar with the matter, Sapna Maheshwari at
BuzzFeed News relates that most of the Company's roughly 100
workers left when the Company announced during a Jan. 5 meeting
that it would be shutting down.  The Company plans to liquidate its
remaining inventory in four New York City area stores, the report
says.

The Company, according to BuzzFeed News, attempted closing 20 of
its 32 locations and spoke of a potential transition into a
wholesale brand, but the efforts failed.  The report states that
the Company has shut down its social media accounts and website. \

The Company said in a statement that it filed a motion for a
Christoper Burch-controlled entity to acquire certain company
assets, including its intellectual property, according to the
statement.

C. Wonder is a whimsical retail chain created by Tory Burch's
ex-husband, Christopher Burch.


CACHE INC: 2nd Bankr. Filing Expected This Week, Sources Say
------------------------------------------------------------
Cache Inc. could file for bankruptcy for the second time next week,
Lauren Coleman-Lochner and Jodi Xu Klein at Bloomberg News reports,
citing people familiar with the matter.

Bloomberg News recalls that the Company filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection in 1986 and emerged in 1988.

Bloomberg News relates that the Company's chief marketing officer
resigned in December 2014, and the Company reiterated this month
that it has fallen below the Nasdaq's listing requirements.  The
report adds that on Jan. 23, 2015, the Company's shares dropped 49%
to less than 10 cents in New York, reducing its market value to $3
million.

Cache Inc., a clothing chain known for helping popularize Armani
and Versace designs in the U.S., operates 237 boutiques in what it
describes as "high-traffic upscale" malls in 43 states.  Marilyn
Rubinson opened the first Cache store in Miami in 1976.


CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT: 2017 Bank Debt Trades at 11% Off
-------------------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which Caesars
Entertainment Inc. is a borrower traded in the secondary market at
89.46 cents-on-the-dollar during the week ended Friday, January
23, 2015, according to data compiled by LSTA/Thomson Reuters MTM
Pricing and reported in The Wall Street Journal.  This represents
an increase of 0.58 percentage points from the previous week, The
Journal relates.  Caesars Entertainment Inc. pays 875 basis points
above LIBOR to borrow under the facility.  The bank loan matures
on March 1, 2017, and carries Moody's Caa3 rating and Standard &
Poor's D rating.  The loan is one of the biggest gainers and
losers among 205 widely quoted syndicated loans with five or more
bids in secondary trading for the week ended Friday.



CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT: 2021 Bank Debt Trades at 9% Off
------------------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under which Caesars
Entertainment Inc. is a borrower traded in the secondary market at
91.55 cents-on-the-dollar during the week ended Friday, January 23,
2015, according to data compiled by LSTA/Thomson Reuters MTM
Pricing and reported in The Wall Street Journal.  This represents a
decrease of 0.39 percentage points from the previous week, The
Journal relates.  Caesars Entertainment Inc. pays 525 basis points
above LIBOR to borrow under the facility.  The bank loan matures on
April 2, 2021, and carries Moody's B2 rating and Standard & Poor's
B+ rating.  The loan is one of the biggest gainers and losers among
205 widely quoted syndicated loans with five or more
bids in secondary trading for the week ended Friday.


CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT: Could Seek Injunction to Block Suits
-----------------------------------------------------------
Kimberly Pierceall at The Associated Press reports that
Caesars Entertainment Operating Co. could seek an injunction to
block lawsuits against its related companies.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Jan. 21, 2015, Peg
Brickley at The Wall Street Journal reported that U.S. District
Judge Shira Scheindlin ruled that Caesars Entertainment Corp. may
have breached federal law when it shuffled its casino assets.
According to the report, Judge Scheindlin said Caesars's deal with
bondholders to cut off guarantees of the debts of its biggest
subsidiary was an "impermissible out-of-court debt restructuring"
that stripped assets from the unit while leaving bondholders "with
an empty right to assert a payment default from an insolvent
issuer."

The AP relates that the case won't proceed against the subsidiary
as long as it is in bankruptcy, but it could against the parent
company.

According to The AP, some first-in-line bank lenders said that they
had formed a committee to oppose the bankruptcy plan that other
creditors had agreed to.

The AP states that the Bankruptcy Court in Delware will decide on
Tuesday the venue of the Chapter 11 bankruptcy case.  The report
adds that Caesars prefers Chicago, where the bankrupt subsidiary
filed for bankruptcy protection, against three creditors who prefer
Delaware, where they filed an involuntary bankruptcy petition
against the bankrupt company.

CAESARS ENTERTAINMENT: Restructuring Not Simple Fix, Fitch Says
---------------------------------------------------------------
Howard Stutz at Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that Fitch Ratings
Service analyst Alex Bumazhny warned investors on Jan. 22, 2015,
that the restructuring of Caesars Entertainment Operating Co.,
which will eliminate almost $10 billion of the division's $18.4
billion debt load, wasn't a simple fix.

The efforts by Caesars Entertainment Corp. to restructure 81% of
its gaming industry-high debt will be a "drawn out" process, Las
Vegas Review-Journal says, citing Fitch.  The report quoted Mr.
Bumazhny as saying, "We continue to hold that the CEOC bankruptcy
will be protracted given the complexity of the capital structure,
the inter-company asset transfers and sales and the contentious
dealings with creditors to date."

Mr. Bumazhny, according to Las Vegas Review-Journal, said he would
give the Debtor a negative rating after accounting for the lease
payments and other expenses.  The report quoted him as saying, "The
term loans' cash recovery mostly hinges on Caesars selling $2.6
billion of Caesars Palace mortgage and debt to third-party
investors, all compounded by Caesars asking the lenders to release
their parent guarantee."

Las Vegas Review-Journal relates that Mr. Bumazhny warned the
private equity firms might have to "dilute their positions in
Caesars" in order to make concessions to some angry creditors.
According to the report, Mr. Bumazhny believes Caesars would have
problems selling casinos to outside parties, as the properties
would be removed from the company's 45 million-member Total Rewards
player loyalty program.

Jocelyn Wood at Pokerfuse.com reports that Caesars Interactive
Entertainment and the World Series of Poker live tournament series
is not directly affected by the bankruptcy.  Raquel Hendrickson at
Inmaricopa.com relates that Harrah's Ak-Chin -- managed by CEOC but
is owned by the Ak-Chin Indian Community -- is one of the more than
35 affiliated properties that are excluded from the bankruptcy.

Citing CEO Gary Loveman, Pokerfuse.com states that Caesars
Entertainment has not run out of money, and that the Chapter 11
bankruptcy only affects Caesars Entertainment Operating Company.
Caesars Entertainment CEO Mitch Garber was also appointed to be the
Vice Chairman of Caesars Entertainment, the report adds.

CITGO HOLDING: Moody's Assigns Caa1 CFR & Rates $1BB Loan Caa1
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's assigned a Caa1 corporate family rating to Citgo Holding,
Inc. and a Caa1, LGD4 rating to its proposed USD1 billion in
secured Term Loan B and USD1.5 billion in secured notes, both due
in 2020. Proceeds of the transactions will be mostly used to pay
dividends to PDVSA (Caa3 stable). The outlook on the ratings is
stable.

Ratings Rationale

The Caa1 ratings on Citgo Holding, Inc, 100% owner of Citgo
Petroleum (Citgo B3 stable), are primarily driven by the latter's
credit quality. As a holding company, Citgo Holding, Inc's
liquidity and source of funds to service its debt are mostly
dependent on Citgo's cash generation and dividend payment capacity,
which are vulnerable to volatile refined product prices and
refining margins. During the last twelve months ended in September
2014, Citgo distributed USD 704 million in dividends and, at the
closing of the quarter, its total unadjusted debt was USD 1.7
billion.

On a consolidated basis, the proposed transaction will increase
Citgo Holding, Inc's adjusted leverage to 3.5 times gross
debt/EBITDA from 2 times as of September 2014. This compares to
Citgo's adjusted leverage of 2 times as of September 2014.

Prior or at the closing of the transactions, Citgo Holding Inc will
own 100% of Citgo as well as one company owner of five oil products
terminals, CITGO Holding Terminals, plus two companies owners of
pipeline networks, Southwest Pipeline Holding and Midwest Pipeline
Holding. Citgo Holding Inc will acquire the terminal and pipeline
companies from Citgo for USD 750 million, with proceeds from the
proposed transactions; during the last twelve months ended in
September 2014, these assets generated USD 40 million in EBITDA.

The new Term Loan B and the secured notes will only be guaranteed
by the terminal and pipeline companies; Citgo is not a guarantor of
the proposed transactions. The security package for the Term Loan B
and the notes is weak as it will only includes the terminals and
pipelines to be acquired from Citgo plus 49% of the capital stock
of Citgo.

Citgo Holding, Inc will maintain a reserve account for the benefit
of the creditors. The reserve account will be funded on the issue
date with funds sufficient to cover one semi-annual interest
payment on the debt; the issuer will be obligated to maintain at
least such level in the reserve account until the maturity of the
loan and the notes.

The B3 ratings on Citgo reflect heightened risk associated with
PDVSA's ownership and financial stress. PDVSA depends on CITGO for
dividends and controls the company's board and strategic direction.
It also supplies a significant share of CITGO's crude requirements
under a long-term supply agreement at market-based prices. PDVSA
periodically has borrowed through CITGO, increasing the
subsidiary's financial leverage, and continues to limit the
company's capital investment and growth opportunities. While
CITGO's assets are located in the US and its credit agreements
provide certain protections to lenders, including limitations on
dividends, it lacks an independent board, with its members and
senior management appointed by PDVSA. Meanwhile, the refineries
continue to generate good financial results, fund capital spending
internally, and maintain a solid liquidity profile, including cash
and committed bank facilities.

CITGO has adequate liquidity, mainly in the form of a mostly
undrawn USD 900 million revolving credit facility that matures in
July 2019. CITGO has headroom under the revolver's financial
covenant of maximum debt/capital of 60%; as of September 2014, its
debt/book capitalization ratio was 42%. CITGO's cash position is
small, with roughly USD 50 million of cash at September 30, 2014
but no near-term debt maturities.

CITGO's rating outlook is stable, tied to the stable outlook of
PDVSA.

Citgo Holding Inc.  is a company based on Delaware, US. Upon
completion of the proposed transactions, it will be a holding
company with no direct operations and no significant assets other
than its ownership of 100% of the capital stock of CITGO and 100%
of the limited liability company interests of CITGO Holding
Terminals, Southwest Pipeline Holding and Midwest Pipeline Holding,
all operating companies. Other than Citgo, all other subsidiaries
provide upstream guarantees and pledged collateral to Citgo
Holdings Inc.'s . As of September 2014, the holding company
reported assets and EBITDA of USD 8.6 Billion and USD 1.7 Billion,
respectively.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global Refining
and Marketing Rating Methodology published in December 2009. Other
methodologies used include Loss Given Default for Speculative-Grade
Non-Financial Companies in the U.S., Canada and EMEA published in
June 2009.



CITGO PETROLEUM: S&P Affirms 'B-' Corp. Credit Rating
-----------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services affirmed its 'B-' corporate
credit rating on U.S. refinery CITGO Petroleum Corp. based on plans
by its ultimate parent PDVSA to arrange a dividend recapitalization
of its U.S. operations.  The outlook is stable. S&P also affirmed
its 'B+' issue-level rating on CITGO Petroleum's senior secured
debt and the recovery rating remains '1'.

S&P also assigned its 'B-' corporate credit rating to CITGO Holding
Inc., a newly created U.S. company that will own PDVSA's interests
in CITGO Petroleum.  The outlook is stable.  S&P also lowered the
SACP on CITGO Petroleum to 'b+' from 'bb' and assigned a 'b+' SACP
to CITGO Holding.

Finally, S&P assigned its 'B-' issue-level rating CITGO Holdings'
proposed $2.5 billion senior secured debt due 2020.  The recovery
rating is '3', reflecting S&P's expectation for meaningful (50% to
70%) recovery in the event of default.  This debt consists of a $1
billion term loan B due 2020 and $1.5 billion notes due 2020.

"We assess CITGO Petroleum and CITGO Holding on a consolidated
basis since CITGO Holding wholly owns CITGO Petroleum and is in
this case serving as the funding vehicle for the transaction but
receives nearly all of it cash flow from CITGO Petroleum," said
credit analyst Terry Pratt.  "The rating on CITGO Petroleum is
constrained by the rating of its parent PDVSA.  We assess the
consolidated standalone credit profile of CITGO Petroleum and CITGO
Holding at 'b+' based on a "fair" business risk profile and "highly
leveraged" financial risk profile."

The outlook on CITGO Petroleum and CITGO Holding is stable. Because
S&P already lowered its rating on CITGO Petroleum to 'B-', S&P
would expect the rating would remain 'B-' with a stable outlook
even if it lowered its rating PDVSA further.

The rating on PDVSA reflects that on Venezuela.  S&P don't expect
PDVSA's relationship with the government to change significantly in
the next two to three years.  S&P also believes the government
won't significantly reduce its heavy involvement in the sector or
in the company.  Therefore, the rating on PDVSA will likely follow
the rating trajectory on the sovereign.

Downside scenario

A negative rating action on PDVSA would not likely lead to a
negative rating action on CITGO Petroleum or CITGO Holding because
S&P believes it's unlikely that CITGO Petroleum and CITGO Holding
will be drawn into insolvency proceedings at the group level.  As
such, S&P would not envision a downgrade of CITGO Petroleum or
CITGO Holding unless they experiences unexpected liquidity issues.

Upside scenario

S&P would raise the rating on CITGO Petroleum and CITGO Holding if
S&P raises its rating on PDVSA  above 'CCC+', assuming that their
consolidated SACP remains at least 'b-' or higher (it is currently
'b+').

CONNEAUT LAKE: 4 Creditors Added in Largest Unsec. Claims List
--------------------------------------------------------------
An amended accounting filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Western District of Pennsylvania shows that Conneaut Lake Park owes
20 major creditors about $676,281, which, according to Valerie
Myers at Goerie.com, is about $320,375 more than the previous
listing of the largest unsecured claims against the Park.

Goerie.com reports that four other creditors were added to these
creditors were added to the list of largest unsecured claims: (i)
Northwest Planning Commission, which is owed $30,000 for an
operating loan; (ii) Griffin Motors, which is owed $25,000 for a
loan; (iii) Shafer, Swick, Bailey & Irwin, which is owed $13,826
for legal services; and (iv) Lifco Hydraulics, which owed $10,084
in trade debt.  According to court documents, Penelec -- owed about
$280,586 -- is the largest unsecured creditor in the amended list
of creditors.

Citing developers, Isaac Stanley-Becker at Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
relates that plans for the Park include short-term cleanup to ready
the park for the summer months and long-term redevelopment to
transform the Park into a cultural destination that can earn
revenue year-round.

According to Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, County Commissioner Francis
F. Weiderspahn Jr. said that the property is still is slated for
sale for back taxes on Sept. 26, unless the new board presents a
plan to pay.  The report states that the trustees will be
responsible for unpaid property taxes totaling about $900,000.

Bill Vidonic at Triblive.com reports that concerns have surfaced
over the finances and the role Hotel Conneaut, one of the last
attractions inside the Conneaut Lake Park, could play in
revitalizing the Park.  The hotel hasn't made payments called for
by its lease, the report says, citing Mark Turner, head of the
Park's board of trustees and executive director of Economic
Progress Alliance of Crawford County, which took over park
operations in May.

Triblive.com states that Park Restoration LLC and the trustees
disagree over whether bills have been paid, whether hotel rent is
due and who owes what for sewer service, but Mr. Turner said that
all business relationships, including that with Park Restoration
LLC, will be closely examined as part of a Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

CONTINENTAL BAR: Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection
-----------------------------------------------------------
Yoona Ha at Crain's New York Business reports that Third Ave & St.
Mark's, Inc., dba Continental, struggling to keep up with the
neighborhood's changing tastes, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy
protection (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 14-13482) on Dec. 23, 2014,
its second time since 2009.

Joel Shafferman, Esq., at Shafferman & Feldman, LLP, serves as the
Debtor's bankruptcy counsel.

According to Crain's, Third Ave & St. Mark's owner Trigger Smith
admitted that the suit dealt a huge blow to his business.  "This
jukebox battle was not only financially devastating but has taken
its toll on me emotionally, spiritually, morally and ethically,"
the report quoted him as saying.

CORD BLOOD: Asks Shareholders to Vote for Common Shares Hike
------------------------------------------------------------
Cord Blood America, Inc., filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement,
Schedule 14A, with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission on
Jan. 23, 2014, and provided an update for shareholders detailing
why a "YES" vote to increase the number of authorized shares is
requested.

Dear Shareholders,

As we reflect upon the 2014 fiscal year that recently concluded, we
take pride in the operational performance we have accomplished
through the first nine months as well as the transformation the
Company has undergone since May of 2012.  During this time period,
the Company has:

   * Taken no outside financing for working capital purposes since
     March 2012 (cash flow positive for 9 consecutive quarters);

   * Divested itself and eliminated investment in unprofitable
     foreign entities;

   * Launched three new service offerings, diversifying revenues
     while contributing to its long-term recurring revenue growth;

   * Received its AABB Accreditation;

   * Invested in a multi-functional platform of technology which
     should provide for a predominately "paperless" operation by
     mid-year 2015.

Looking ahead, we know the legacy issue of the convertible note
debt has been a burden on the Company's capital structure, directly
impacting shareholder value.  In a major milestone to eliminate
this burden on the Company, we recently announced, on December 23,
2014, the settlement of the litigation with Tonaquint and St.
George.

Now the work begins on eliminating the remaining debt of the
Company.  What I want to emphasize with this proposed increase is
that it is not being put forth to be used as the primary or
expected vehicle to reduce the remaining debt through the issuance
of common stock to Tonaquint.  If this was the plan, the increase
we seek would have to be much larger to ensure that we could pay
off the entire amount, including interest using common stock
issuances.  Our history indicates that full consideration must be
given to the discount to market price per share on the convertible
feature per the note, and the impact of the constant dilution
through the issuance of common stock which typically drives the
share price down from pre-issuance prices.  Additionally, it is
important to note that even though the Company can designate
certain amounts as eligible for conversion to common stock by
Tonquint, the conversion of shares is then an option held solely by
Tonaquint, and not that of the Company.

We also understand that additional evidence is sometimes needed to
those external to the Company that adds support to our statements,
thus we can announce today that the Company has already made cash
payments in December 2014 and January 2015 of $100,000 each, to
begin the process of paying off the Company’s remaining debt
obligation.  These payments are applied to the April 17, 2015 and
May 17, 2015 installments due.  While we make no assurances that
the monthly payments in cash produced by the Company's operations
will be sufficient to fully fund the ongoing debt obligation, the
Company believes that it can continue to generate cash to be used
at least in part to retire the debt, rather than paying the total
amounts in common stock.  We saw evidence of this in the third
quarter of 2014 where revenues increased by 25% year over year,
with a large contributor to this increase being the continued
growth of the Company's tissue related procurement services.

Running parallel to the day-to-day performance of the Company,
management continues to evaluate additional options as it moves
forward with its repayment of the debt.  This requested increase in
the number of authorized shares may be needed as we explore other
alternatives to retire the debt and/or daily operations do not
produce the requisite cash.  Additionally, management, along with a
significant portion of the employees, have agreed to receive common
stock in lieu of cash for 2014 operational bonuses and 2015 wage
increases.  This dedicated group of employees understands the
importance of the Company retaining its cash in connection to its
efforts to reduce its debt, plus have confidence in the long-term
potential of the Company.  Retention and the commitment of this
team, who have been instrumental in the Company's progress to date,
remain critical to long-term success.

We again ask you, our shareholders, to support management in this
measure and vote "Yes" on the proposals set for vote at the April
10, 2015 special shareholder's meeting.  There has been a
significant amount of work done to position the Company for the
future, and management believes the elimination of the remaining
debt obligation opens new opportunities for increased growth and
shareholder value.

"Never" is a word I will not use as I go about the future direction
of CBAI.  However, I do want to state that we are confident that
this increase in the authorized shares is sufficient to provide the
flexibility required to retire the remaining debt of the Company,
and seize upon the Company's prospects for the foreseeable future.

Sincerely,

Joseph R. Vicente
Chairman and President

for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013.  The independent auditors noted
that the Company has sustained recurring operating losses and has

CRUMBS BAKE SHOP: Parties Seek Delay of Conversion Hearing
----------------------------------------------------------
Crumbs Bake Shop Inc., et al., and Coastal Foods Baking, LLC, asked
the Bankruptcy Court to adjourn the hearing to consider these:

   -- motion to convert case from Chapter 11 to Chapter 7;

   -- motion for a Determination of Brand2 Squared Licensing's
willful violation of the automatic stay and assessing damages
relating thereto;

   -- motion to Compel Coastal Foods Baking LLC to perform in
accordance with the terms of its license agreement and for damages
resulting from Coastal Foods' willful violation of the automatic
stay;

   -- cross-motion to modify the automatic stay as appropriate, and
as necessary, allow the administrative claim of Coastal Foods and
permit Coastal Foods to set off or recoup that administrative claim
against the otherwise due postpetition royalties due from Coastal
Foods;

   -- motion for relief from stay.

The parties requested for the adjournment of hearing as they
explore a potential amicable resolution of these matters -- the
motion to compel/stay violation motion -- Coastal and the Coastal
Cross-Motion, as the parties.  Coastal is in the midst of providing
documents and information to the Debtors.  In connection with the
agreement to adjourn these matters, the parties discussed
rescheduling them either later in December or early January, on a
date where the Court was sitting in Newark if possible.

The Debtors had requested that Brand2 Squared Licensing consent to
an adjournment but BSL refused (or at least initially has refused)
to consent to an adjournment.  The Debtors said that they will
await the Court's direction with respect to the adjournment
request.

                         Conversion Motion

As reported in the TCR on Oct. 16, 2014, the Debtors told the Court
that they have sold substantially all of their assets, have no
operating business to save and cannot propose a feasible plan of
reorganization.  Accordingly, the Debtors note they have no
alternative but to convert their Chapter 11 proceedings to Chapter
7 pursuant to Section 1112(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtors said that they do not have sufficient funds available
to formulate and seek confirmation of a Chapter 11 plan, and the
potential causes of action, while believed to have value, will
take a long time to liquidate.  It is the Debtors' judgment that
in the particular circumstances of these Chapter 11 cases, the
goal of maximizing the net recoveries to creditors will best be
achieved through an orderly process that may be administered by a
Chapter 7 trustee.  The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
agrees with the Debtors' decision to convert the Debtors' Chapter
11 cases to Chapter 7.

BSL joined in the Debtors' motion for Chapter 7 conversion.

                      About Crumbs Bake Shop

Crumbs Bake Shop, Inc., and 22 of its affiliates filed separate
Chapter 11 bankruptcy petitions (Bankr. D.N.J. Lead Case No. 14-
24287) on July 11, 2014.  Crumbs Bake Shop estimated assets of
$10 million to $50 million and the same range of liabilities.

Esq., at Lowenstein Sandler LLP serves as Committee's counsel.

                           *     *     *

On July 7, 2014, the Board of Directors of Crumbs Bake Shop
determined to cease operations effective immediately.  The Board's
determination was made after the Company lacked sufficient
liquidity to maintain current operations.

On the petition date, Crumbs entered into an Asset Purchase
Agreement through which Lemonis Fischer Acquisition Company, LLC,
a joint venture created by Marcus Lemonis LLC and Fischer
Enterprises, L.L.C., will acquire the Crumbs' business as part of
the Company's Chapter 11 filing.  Lemonis Fischer Acquisition is
represented by Louis Price, Esq., at McAfee & Taft PC.

On Aug. 29, 2014, Crumbs Bake Shops completed the sale of its
assets for a credit bid of $7.14 million and the assumption of
various liabilities.  There are no cash proceeds and the credit
bid resulted in the repayment of all indebtedness to Lemonis
Fischer Acquisition, which held a first priority security interest
in the assets of the Company.  The Company's remaining assets will
be liquidated and the proceeds thereof will be utilized to pay
unsecured liabilities in accordance with applicable law and
certain advisors' fees and expenses.  The Company does not expect
that there will be any proceeds available for distribution to
shareholders.

                         About EPAZZ Inc.

Chicago, Ill.-based EPAZZ, Inc., was incorporated in the State of
Illinois on March 23, 2000, to create software to help college
students organize their college information and resources.  The
idea behind the Company was that if the information and resources
provided by colleges and universities was better organized and
targeted toward each individual, the students would encounter a
personal experience with the college or university that could lead
to a lifetime relationship with the institution.  This concept is
already used by business software designed to retain relationships
with clients, employees, vendors and partners.

Epazz reported a net loss of $3.37 million on $750,100 of revenue
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013, as compared with a net loss of
$1.90 million on $1.19 million of revenue for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2012.

As of Sept. 30, 2014, the Company had $2.38 million in total
assets, $4.29 million in total liabilities and a $1.91 million
total stockholders' deficit.

M&K CPAS, PLLC, in Houston, Texas, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended Dec. 31, 2013.  The independent auditors noted that
the Company has an accumulated deficit of $7.50 million and a
working capital deficit of $1.28 million, which raises substantial
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

                        Bankruptcy Warning

The Company said in the 2013 Annual Report that it will need to
raise additional funds to continue to operate as a going concern.

"We cannot be certain that any such financing will be available on
acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when
needed could limit our ability to continue and expand our
business.  We intend to overcome the circumstances that impact our
ability to remain a going concern through a combination of the
commencement of additional revenues, of which there can be no
assurance, with interim cash flow deficiencies being addressed
through additional equity and debt financing.  Our ability to
obtain additional funding for the remainder of the 2014 year and
thereafter will determine our ability to continue as a going
concern.  There can be no assurances that these plans for
additional financing will be successful.  Failure to secure
additional financing in a timely manner to repay our obligations
and supply us sufficient funds to continue our business operations
and on favorable terms if and when needed in the future could have
a material adverse effect on our financial performance, results of
operations and stock price and require us to implement cost
reduction initiatives and curtail operations.  Furthermore,
additional equity financing may be dilutive to the holders of our
common stock, and debt financing, if available, may involve
restrictive covenants, and strategic relationships, if necessary
to raise additional funds, and may require that we relinquish
valuable rights.  In the event that we are unable to repay our
current and long-term obligations as they come due, we could be
forced to curtail or abandon our business operations, and/or file
for bankruptcy protection; the result of which would likely be
that our securities would decline in value and/or become
worthless."

FREEDOM INDUSTRIES: Ex Pres. Allegedly Sent $6.5MM to Insurance Co
------------------------------------------------------------------
Pam Ramsay at The Associated Press reports that a federal grand
jury at Beckley, West Virginia, handed up a superseding indictment
on Jan. 21, 2015, accusing former Freedom Industries Inc. President
Gary Southern of sending a $6.5 million check from a personal bank
account around Feb. 7, 2014, to an insurance company to be
deposited in an annuity as part of a bankruptcy fraud scheme.

Mr. Southern, The AP states, allegedly schemed to defraud the
Company's creditors and plaintiffs who sued the Company and him
following the Jan. 9, 2014, spill of a coal-cleaning chemical from
a tank at the Company's storage facility along the Elk River in
Charleston.  According to the report, Mr. Southern allegedly
attempted to protect some of his assets from possible verdicts and
judgments.  

Charleston Daily Mail says that the new indictment alleged that Mr.
Southern and former owners William Tis, Charles Herzing and Dennis
Farrell (i) failed to maintain and were negligent in inspecting the
Etowah facility on the Elk River near Charleston, (ii) were
negligent in training workers on pollution prevention, and (iv) did
not have adequate supplies and equipment at the facility.

According to Charleston Daily Mail, the defendants are free on
bond.  The report adds that a trial on the matter previously had
been set for March.

Robert Allen, Esq., represents Mr. Southern in this case, The AP
reports.

Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D. W.Va. Case No. 14-bk-20017) on
Jan. 17, 2014.  The case is assigned to Judge Ronald G. Pearson.
The petition was signed by Gary Southern, president.

The Debtor is represented by Mark E Freedlander, Esq., at McGuire

GENERAL MOTORS: No Promise of New Product in Canada
---------------------------------------------------
Reka Szekely and Keith Gilligan at Durhamregion.com reports that
General Motors has not committed new product to its Oshawa, Canada
plant beyond 2016, creating a level of concern about the Company's
future in Oshawa.  

According to Greg Keenan at The Globe and Mail, one of the
Company's Oshawa assembly plants is scheduled to close in 2016.  No
new products have been allocated to the other factory, which puts
its future in jeopardy later this decade, the report states, citing
people familiar with the matter.

The Globe and Mail relates that concerns have arisen about the
future of Oshawa in part because a commitment the Company made to
produce 16% of its North American-made vehicles in Canada expires
2016, in return for a $10.8-billion contribution by the federal and
Ontario governments to the bailout of the Company when it went into
Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2009.  The report adds that the
two governments were given shares in the new GM that emerged from
bankruptcy protection and they still hold about 7%.  "We've been
there for them in tough times, we expect them to be there for
Canada," The Globe and Mail quoted Federal Industry Minister James
Moore as saying.

Durhamregion.com states that Oshawa mayor John Henry and the Durham
Regional Chairman Roger Anderson met with GM Canada president and
managing director Steve Carlisle and David Paterson, vice-president
corporate and environmental affairs for the company, at Durham
Region headquarters in Whitby on Jan. 20, 2015.  According to the
report, Mayor Henry said there were no promises about new products
coming to the plant, but "We had a great discussion about the
products that are made here and they're continuing to sell well . .
. .  It was more about understanding each other and recognizing
that General Motors is a big part of the Oshawa community, the
Ontario community and the business community."

The Company said it remains committed to Canadian investment The
Globe and Mail reports.  Mr. Carlisle said in a statement that the
Company's executives and the Canadian cabinet ministers discussed
how they can work together on future opportunities at operations in
Oshawa, Ingersoll, Ontario, and St. Catharines, Ontario.

The Troubled Company Reporter, on Sep. 29, 2014, reported that
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its corporate credit
rating on U.S. automaker General Motors Co. (GM) to 'BBB-' from
'BB+', and revised the outlook to stable from positive.  At the
same time, S&P raised its issue-level rating on GM's unsecured
debt to 'BBB-' from 'BB+' and simultaneously withdrew its '4'
recovery rating on that debt, because S&P do not assign recovery
ratings to the issues of investment-grade companies.

On Oct. 21, 2014, the TCR reported that Fitch Ratings has assigned
a rating of 'BB+' to GM's amended unsecured credit facilities.
Fitch currently rates GM's Issuer Default Rating (IDR) 'BB+'.  The
Rating Outlook is Positive.  Fitch has also affirmed and withdrawn
the 'BB+' IDR of GM's General Motors Holdings LLC (GM Holdings)
subsidiary, as there is no longer any rated debt at the
subsidiary, and Fitch does not expect the subsidiary to be an
active issuer going forward.  Fitch has also withdrawn GM Holdings'
unsecured credit facility rating of 'BB+' as the subsidiary is no
longer a borrower on the facilities.

The TCR, on Nov. 6, 2014, reported that Fitch Ratings has assigned
a rating of 'BB+' to GM's proposed issuance of senior unsecured
notes.  The existing Issuer Default Rating (IDR) for GM is 'BB+'
and the Rating Outlook is Positive.

GOLDEN STATE PETROLEUM: Moody's Withdraws Caa1 Rating
-----------------------------------------------------
Moody's withdraws Golden State Petroleum Transport's Caa1 rating on
debt redemption

Moody's Investors Service has withdrawn Golden State Petroleum
Transport Corporation's (Golden State) Caa1 rating following the
redemption of its 8.04% First Preferred Mortgage Notes due 2019.
Effective October 20, 2014, Golden State sold its remaining vessel,
the tanker VLCC (very large crude carrier) Ulriken to an unrelated
third party. The Ulriken had served as collateral for the company's
Notes. As provided by the Indenture governing the Notes, the net
proceeds from the sale, together with other funds held for the
benefit of noteholders, were used to mandatorily redeem all
remaining outstanding notes at par plus accrued and unpaid
interest, 90 days after the sale of the vessel. The redemption date
was January 18, 2015, and the redemption took place on January 19,
2015.

Golden State is a special purpose vehicle established to act as
agent for the issuance of debt to finance the construction,
ownership and delivery in 1998 and 1999 of two double-hulled VLCCs
by two affiliated ship-owning companies. Both tankers were
initially under charter to Chevron Transportation Corporation, a
wholly-owned shipping company operating under the guarantee of
Chevron Corporation (Chevron, Aa1 stable). Golden State's VLCC
Ulysses charter was terminated effective March 15, 2013, with the
vessel sold to an unrelated third party in March 2014. The VLCC
Ulriken charter was terminated effective December 7, 2010. Both
tankers had been trading in the spot market following the
termination of their respective charters. Following the delivery of
the VLCC Ulriken to its buyer, Golden State notes that the vessel
is expected to cease operating in the tanker market.

Ratings Rationale

Golden State's ratings were assigned by evaluating factors that
Moody's considers relevant to the credit profile of the issuer,
such as the company's (i) business risk and competitive position
compared with others within the industry; (ii) capital structure
and financial risk; (iii) projected performance over the near to
intermediate term; and (iv) management's track record and tolerance
for risk. Moody's compared these attributes against other issuers
both within and outside Golden State's core industry and believes
Golden State's ratings are comparable to those of other issuers
with similar credit risk.

Outlook Actions:

Issuer: Golden State Petroleum Transport Corporation

  Outlook, Changed To Rating Withdrawn From Stable

Withdrawals:

Issuer: Golden State Petroleum Transport Corporation

  Senior Secured First Mortgage Bonds (Local Currency) Withdrawn,
  previously rated Caa1

HERCULES OFFSHORE: Files Fleet Status Report as of Jan. 22
----------------------------------------------------------
Hercules Offshore, Inc., posted on its Web site at
www.herculesoffshore.com a report entitled "Hercules Offshore Fleet
Status Report".  The Fleet Status Report includes the Hercules
Offshore Rig Fleet Status (as of Jan. 22, 2015), which contains
information for each of the Company's drilling rigs, including
contract dayrate and duration.  The Fleet Status Report also
includes the Hercules Offshore Liftboat Fleet Status Report, which
contains information by liftboat class for December 2014, including
revenue per day and operating days.  The Fleet Status Report can be
found under the Investor Relations portion of the Company's Web
site, a copy of which is available for free at:

                        http://is.gd/477R9O

                         Asset Impairments

The Company made the decision to remove the Hercules 120, Hercules
200, Hercules 214, Hercules 251 and Hercules 253 from its
marketable assets into its non-marketable assets as the Company
does not reasonably expect to market these rigs in the foreseeable
future.  The Company expects to record a non-cash impairment charge
of approximately $117 million during the fourth quarter of 2014 to
write the rigs down to fair value based on a third party estimate.

                      About Hercules Offshore

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

Hercules incurred a net loss of $68.11 million in 2013, a net loss
of $127 million in 2012 and a net loss of $76.1 million in 2011.
As of Sept. 30, 2014, the Company had $2.19 billion in total
assets, $1.42 billion in total liabilities and $767 million in
stockholders' equity.

                           *     *     *

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

As reported by the TCR on Dec. 30, 2014, S&P lowered its corporate
credit rating on Hercules Offshore Inc. to 'B-' from 'B'.  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.


HIGHLAND COMMUNITY BANK: United Fidelity Bank Assumes All Deposits
------------------------------------------------------------------
Highland Community Bank, Chicago, Illinois, was closed on January
23, 2015, by the Illinois Department of Financial & Professional
Regulation—Division of Banking, which appointed the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver.

To protect the depositors, the FDIC entered into a purchase and
assumption agreement with United Fidelity Bank, fsb, Evansville,
Indiana, to assume all of the deposits of Highland Community Bank.

The two branches of Highland Community Bank will reopen as branches
of United Fidelity Bank, fsb during their normal business hours.
Depositors of Highland Community Bank will automatically become
depositors of United Fidelity Bank, fsb.  Deposits will continue to
be insured by the FDIC, so there is no need for customers to change
their banking relationship in order to retain their deposit
insurance coverage up to applicable limits.

Customers of Highland Community Bank should continue to use their
existing branch until they receive notice from United Fidelity
Bank, fsb that it has completed systems changes to allow other
United Fidelity Bank, fsb branches to process their accounts as
well.

On the weekend of January 24, depositors of Highland Community Bank
were suppose to have access to their money by writing checks or
using ATM or debit cards. Checks drawn on the bank will continue to
be processed. Loan customers should continue to make their payments
as usual.

As of December 31, 2014, Highland Community Bank had approximately
$54.7 million in total assets and $53.5 million in total deposits.
In addition to assuming all of the deposits of the failed bank,
United Fidelity Bank, fsb agreed to purchase essentially all of the
assets.



HILAND PARTNERS: Moody's Puts 'B'1 CFR on Review for Upgrade
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service placed Hiland Partners, LP's ratings on
review for upgrade, including its B1 Corporate Family Rating (CFR),
B1-PD Probability of Default Rating, and B2 senior unsecured note
rating. The review was initiated after the announcement that Kinder
Morgan Inc. (KMI, Baa3 stable) agreed to purchase Hiland for
approximately $3 billion, including the assumption of the
partnership's approximately $1.0 billion of outstanding debt. The
review period is expected to last approximately 30 days and the
degree of ratings improvement will depend on the level of credit
support KMI provides to Hiland.

"After its acquisition by KMI, Hiland will benefit from its
affiliation with the largest midstream energy company in the US,"
said Stuart Miller, Moody's Vice President and Senior Credit
Officer. "Depending on the level of explicit credit support
provided, Moody's expect the senior unsecured rating to be upgraded
by at least one notch, but possibly five notches if KMI provides an
unconditional guarantee of Hiland's debt."

Ratings Placed on Review for Upgrade:

  Corporate Family Rating of B1 placed under review for upgrade

  Probability of Default Rating of B1-PD placed under review
  for upgrade

  Senior unsecured note rating of B2, LGD4 placed under review
  for upgrade

  Outlook changed from stable to rating under review for upgrade

Ratings Unchanged:

  Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating of SGL-3 is unchanged

Ratings Rationale

Hiland's B1 CFR recognizes the company's first-mover and premier
position in the prolific Bakken Shale as well as its significant
acreage dedication from Continental Resources (Continental, Baa3
stable), the largest acreage holder in the Bakken Shale region.
With the completion of the Double H Pipeline, which provides a
needed outlet for crude production in the core of the Bakken, about
85% of Hiland's cashflow is expected to be fee-based.

The acquisition of Hiland by Kinder provides credit uplift to
Hiland's ratings. Kinder's senior unsecured note rating is Baa3,
five notches higher than Hiland's. Depending on the level of
explicit support, Hiland's unsecured debt rating could be upgraded
to Kinder's level. Without a Kinder guarantee, Hiland's rating will
be based on a fundamental analysis of Hiland's credit with one or
two notches of uplift to acknowledge its ownership by a much larger
and stronger company. Given Kinder's desire to maintain its
investment grade rating, Moody's expects that the Hiland
acquisition will be financed in a manner that is credit neutral at
worst, and possibly credit accretive, for Kinder. The acquisition
is expected to close in the first quarter of 2015. Moody's review
will be completed once the degree of support for Hiland's debt is
made clear.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global
Midstream Energy published in December 2010. Other methodologies
used include Loss Given Default for Speculative-Grade Non-Financial
Companies in the U.S., Canada and EMEA published in June 2009.



HILAND PARTNERS: S&P Puts 'B' CCR on CreditWatch Positive
---------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it placed its 'B' corporate
credit and senior unsecured ratings on Hiland Partners L.P. on
CreditWatch with positive implications.

"The positive CreditWatch on Hiland and its unsecured notes reflect
our expectation that we will raise the ratings in line with those
of Kinder when the transaction closes, assuming Kinder uarantees
the Hiland debt," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Mike
Llanos.

The transaction purchase price of $3 billion includes Hiland's $1.3
billion of reported debt that Kinder will assume.  Hiland's EBITDA
is expected to increase year-over-year as it receives nearly a full
year's contribution from the Double H pipeline.  That pipeline will
have an initial capacity of about 84,000 barrels per day (bpd),
with an expansion to about 108,000 bpd in 2016.  The pipeline has
firm take-or-pay contracts for about 60,000 bpd and could attract
further commitments.  Despite weak crude oil prices, S&P expects
the pipeline to operate at full capacity in 2015.

S&P expects to resolve the CreditWatch listing on Hiland when the
proposed transaction closes, currently expected in the first
quarter of 2015.  S&P expects to raise the corporate credit rating
and debt ratings on Hiland to 'BBB-', in line with that of Kinder,
assuming Kinder guarantees the debt.



HIPCRICKET INC: Meeting to Form Creditors' Panel Set for Jan. 30
----------------------------------------------------------------
Andy Vara, Acting United States Trustee for Region 3, will hold an
organizational meeting on Jan. 30, 2015, at 9:00 a.m. in the
bankruptcy case of Hipcricket, Inc..

The meeting will be held at:

         J. Caleb Boggs Federal Building
         844 King St., Room 5209
         Wilmington, DE 19801

The sole purpose of the meeting will be to form a committee or
committees of unsecured creditors in the Debtors' case.

The organizational meeting is not the meeting of creditors pursuant
to Section 341 of the Bankruptcy Code.  A representative of the
Debtor, however, may attend the Organizational Meeting, and provide
background information regarding the bankruptcy cases.

To increase participation in the Chapter 11 proceeding, Section
1102 of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the United States Trustee
appoint a committee of unsecured creditors as soon as practicable.
The Committee ordinarily consists of the persons, willing to serve,
that hold the seven largest unsecured claims against the debtor of
the kinds represented on the committee.  Section 1103 of the
Bankruptcy Code provides that the Committee may consult with the
debtor, investigate the debtor and its business operations and
participate in the formulation of a plan of reorganization.  The
Committee may also perform other services as are in the interests
of the unsecured creditors whom it represents.

HORIZON VILLAGE: Court Denies Well Fargo's Bid for Limited Stay
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Mike K. Nakagawa entered an order denying primary creditor
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.'s motion for limited stay in the Chapter 11
case of Beltway One Development Group, LLC, pending appeal.

On Nov. 26, 2014, Wells Fargo filed the instant stay motion.  On
Dec. 3, an order shortening time was entered scheduling the stay
motion for a hearing on an expedited basis.  On Dec. 5, the Debtor
opposed to the stay motion. On Dec. 8, Wells Fargo filed its
reply.

Wells Fargo stated that it does not seek a stay of all aspects of
the confirmation order dated March 25, 2014, but only to the extent
it would allow the revested Debtor to expend its accumulated cash.


Wells Fargo maintained that the confirmed plan improperly denied
$753,000 in pre-confirmation default interest and that the amounts
allowed under the Sec. 506(b) order must be aggregated for
treatment as part of Wells Fargo's allowed secured claim under the
confirmed plan.

The said that Wells Fargo has not met its burden with respect to
the most important factors for a stay pending appeal, i.e.,
likelihood of success on merits and likelihood of irreparable
injury.  The two remaining factors, i.e., injury to other parties
and the public interest, are either neutral or do not favor
imposition of a stay.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, the Company reported a
net loss of $21.01 million on $8.55 million of revenues compared
to a net loss of $27.35 million on $12.01 million of revenues
during the prior fiscal year.

As of Sept. 30, 2014, the Company had $5.60 million in total
assets, $70.9 million in total liabilities and a $65.3 million
total stockholders' deficit.

Marcum LLP, in Boston, Massachusetts, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended June 30, 2014.  The independent auditors noted that
the Company has had recurring net losses and continues to
experience negative cash flows from operations.  As of Sept. 23,
2014, the Company's principal obligation to its primary lenders
was approximately $53,437,000 and accrued interest of
approximately $10,163,000.  The Company is required to repay all
borrowings and accrued interest to these lenders on March 31,
2015.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability
to continue as a going concern.

                         Bankruptcy Warning

"Our ability to comply with our debt covenants in the future
depends on our ability to generate sufficient sales and to control
expenses, and will require that we seek additional capital through
private financing sources.  There can be no assurances that we
will achieve our forecasted financial results or that we will be
able to raise additional capital to operate our business.  Any
such failure would have a material adverse impact on our liquidity
and financial condition and could force us to curtail or
discontinue operations entirely.  Further, upon the occurrence of
an event of default under certain provisions of our credit
agreements, we could be required to pay default rate interest
equal to the lesser of 2.5% per month and the maximum applicable
legal rate per annum on the outstanding principal balance
outstanding.  The failure to refinance or otherwise negotiate
further extensions of our obligations to our secured lenders would
have a material adverse impact on our liquidity and financial
condition and could force us to curtail or discontinue operations
entirely and/or file for protection under bankruptcy laws," the
Company stated in its quarterly report for the period ended
Sept. 30, 2014.


INFINITY AUGMENTED: Needs Additional Funds for Operations
---------------------------------------------------------
Infinity Augmented Reality, Inc., filed its quarterly report on
Form 10-Q, reporting a net loss of $1.47 million on $nil of
total revenue for the quarter ended Nov. 30, 2014, compared with
a net loss of $1.2 million on $nil of total revenue for the
same period in 2013.

The Company's balance sheet at Nov. 30, 2014, showed $1.34
million in total assets, $4.15 million in total liabilities, and
a stockholders' deficit of $2.81 million.

Infinity Augmented Reality will require additional funds to
finance operations.  The Company is dependent upon the expected
demand for software platform and ability to generate sufficient
cash from its business to meet obligations as they come due.  
These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern.

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

business of the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources.

Effective Nov. 15, 2012, the Company is no longer engaged in its
prior primary activity as a specialty financial services company
primarily engaged in the purchase of life settlement contracts.
As a result, the Company is currently classified as a development
stage company.  All of the operations related to the Company's
life settlements business are reported as discontinued operations
in the condensed consolidated financial statements.


INFINITY ENERGY: RBSM LLP Assumes Auditing Role
-----------------------------------------------
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Infinity Energy
Resources appointed RBSM, LLP, to be the Company's independent
registered public accountant for the fiscal year ending Dec. 31,
2014, according to a regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission.

During the two most recent completed fiscal years and through
Jan. 21, 2015, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf
consulted with RBSM, LLP.

Infinity Energy was notified that L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC, had
entered into an agreement under which it merged with RBSM, LLP.  In
connection with that agreement the parties decided that RBSM, LLP,
will perform services for all clients of L.L. Bradford & Company,
LLC, who are reporting companies with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Thus, pursuant to this agreement, the Company's
financial statements will be audited by RBSM, LLP, and no longer by
L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC.

The reports provided by L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC, in connection
with the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year-ended
Dec. 31, 2013, did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion, nor was the report qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that
L.L. Bradford & Company, LLC's report contained an explanatory
paragraph regarding substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern.

                      About Infinity Energy

Overland Park, Kansas-based Infinity Energy Resources and its
subsidiaries, are engaged in the acquisition and exploration of oil
and gas properties offshore Nicaragua in the Caribbean Sea.

Infinity Energy reported a net loss applicable to common
shareholders of $5.58 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013,
compared to net income applicable to common shareholders of
$895,000 for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012.

As of Dec. 31, 2013, the Company had $10.5 million in assets, $11.7
million in liabilities, $1.65 million in redeemable, convertible
preferred stock, and a $2.87 million stockholders' deficit.

L.L. Bradford & Company, in Leawood, Kansas, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements for
the year ended Dec. 31, 2013.  The independent auditors noted that
the Company has suffered recurring losses, has no on-going
operations, and has a significant working capital deficit, which
raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern.


ISTAR FINANCIAL: Obtains Favorable Order in "U.S. Home" Suit
------------------------------------------------------------
The United States District Court for the District of Maryland
entered a judgment in favor of iStar Financial Inc. in the matter
of U.S. Home Corporation v. Settlers Crossing, LLC, et al. (Civil
Action No. DKC 08-1863).  The litigation involved a dispute over
the purchase and sale of approximately 1,250 acres of land in
Prince George's County, Maryland.  

According to a regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission, the Court found that iStar was entitled to
specific performance and awarded damages to iStar in the aggregate
amount of:

    (i) the remaining purchase price to be paid by Lennar of
        $114 million; plus

   (ii) interest on the unpaid amount at a rate of 12% per annum,
        calculated on a per diem basis, from May 27, 2008, until
        Lennar proceeds to settlement on the land; plus

  (iii) real estate taxes paid by iStar in the amount of
        approximately $1.6 million; plus  

   (iv) actual and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred
        by iStar in connection with the litigation.  

The Court ordered Lennar to proceed to settlement on the land and
to pay the total amounts awarded to iStar within 30 days of the
judgment.  A third party is entitled to a 15% participation
interest in proceeds from the disposition of the land.  Lennar may
appeal the Court's decision.  There can be no assurance as to the
timing or actual receipt by iStar of amounts awarded by the Court
or to the outcome of any appeal.

As reported by the TCR on June 26, 2014, Fitch Ratings had
affirmed the Issuer Default Rating (IDR) of iStar Financial
at 'B'.  The 'B' IDR is driven by improvements in the company's
leverage, continued demonstrated access to the capital markets and
new sources of growth capital and material reductions in non-
performing loans (NPLs).

As reported by the TCR on Oct. 5, 2012, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services affirmed its 'B+' long-term issuer credit rating on iStar
Financial.

In October 2012, Moody's Investors Service upgraded the corporate
family rating to 'B2' from 'B3'.  The current rating reflects the
REIT's success in extending near term debt maturities and
improving fundamentals in commercial real estate.  The ratings on
the October 2012 senior secured credit facility takes into account
the asset coverage, the size and quality of the collateral pool,
and the term of facility.


KEMPER CORP: Fitch Affirms 'BB' Ratings on Subordinated Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed Kemper Corporation's holding company
ratings, including the senior debt rating at 'BBB-'. Fitch has also
affirmed the Insurer Financial Strength (IFS) ratings of Kemper's
operating subsidiaries at 'A-'. The Rating Outlook is Stable.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

Kemper's ratings reflect modest earnings, solid balance sheet
strength, and sufficient debt servicing capability. The ratings
also consider the company's more volatile earnings profile caused
by natural catastrophe exposures.

Kemper reported net earnings of $49.1 million for the first
nine-months of 2014, down from $162.5 in the prior year period.
Results include a $54.6 million write-off related to software that
was being developed for internal use. Weaker results were also
primarily driven by higher catastrophe losses and expense pressure
from a lower premium base, including the impact of the
direct-to-consumer business runoff.

For the first nine months of 2014, Kemper's property/casualty
calendar-year combined ratio included above-average catastrophe
losses of $92.1 million. Kemper reported a nine-month combined
ratio in 2014 of 106.9%. Excluding the software write-off, the
ratio was 101.1% and included 9.7pp of catastrophe losses and 4.8pp
of favorable reserve development. This compares with a 97.2%
combined ratio for the prior-year period, which includes 4.3pp of
catastrophe losses and 4.1pp of favorable reserve development.

Kemper's Life/Health segment continues to generate stable earnings
with minimal volatility. The segment reported a modest decrease in
operating profit to $58 million for nine-months 2014, down from $64
million in the prior year. The decrease was largely due a modest
drop in net investment income.

Kemper announced in December of 2014 that it had reached an
agreement to acquire the Alliance United Group, a writer of
non-standard auto insurance in California, and its subsidiaries for
$70 million in cash. The deal is expected to close in the first
half of 2015, after which Kemper expects to contribute up to an
additional $75 million to support the book of business. Alliance
United's net premiums written in 2013 were approximately 11% of
Kemper's property/casualty net premiums written. Alliance has
reported recent significant growth in premiums with nearly 47%
annual growth between 2011 and 2013, which Fitch considers a credit
negative. Rapid growth can often be accompanied by declines in
underwriting quality or pricing and is viewed more cautiously.

Fitch views Kemper's p/c and life companies as strongly
capitalized. Estimated NAIC risk-based capital ratios were 340% and
450% of the company action level at Sept. 30, 2014, respectively.
Net premiums written-to-surplus for Kemper's property/casualty
operations remains acceptable for its line of business at
approximately 1.4x. Kemper's financial leverage ratio remains in
line with median guidelines at 28.8% as of Sept. 30, 2014.

Kemper's fixed-charge coverage was modest at 2.7x through three
quarters 2014. Debt-servicing capacity is further supported by
dividend capacity from its insurance subsidiaries and holding
company cash and short term investments of $302 million, which
could be used for general corporate purposes or the retirement of
debt maturities in November 2015.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that could lead to a downgrade include:

-- Statutory fixed charge coverage below 3.5x;
-- A combined ratio above 106% for a sustained period;
-- Deterioration in capitalization with a p/c Prism capital model

    score below 'adequate' (based on year-end 2013 data Kemper's
Prism
    score was 'Strong');
-- RBC ratio for the p/c and life insurance entities below 200%
and 250%,
    respectively;
-- Financial leverage ratio that exceeds 30%.

Factors that could lead to an upgrade include:

  -- Maintaining a Prism score of 'strong';
  -- Sustained underwriting profit;
  -- GAAP fixed charge coverage at or above 7x.

Fitch has affirmed the following ratings with a Stable Outlook:

Kemper

-- IDR at 'BBB';
-- $610 million senior notes at 'BBB-';
-- $225 million credit facility at 'BBB-'.
-- $150 million subordinated notes at 'BB'.

Trinity Universal Insurance Co.
United Insurance Co. of America
Union National Life Insurance Co.
Reliable Life Insurance Co.

-- Insurer Financial Strength rating at 'A-'.


KERSHAWHEALTH: S&P Lowers Rating on $19.6MM Revenue Bonds to 'BB'
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it lowered its
long-term rating two notches to 'BB' from 'BBB-' on the South
Carolina Jobs Economic Development Authority's $19.6 million series
2008 hospital revenue bonds issued for KershawHealth.  The outlook
is stable.

"The lower rating reflects both the application of Standard &
Poor's 'U.S. Not-For-Profit Acute-Care Stand-Alone Hospitals'
criteria published on Dec. 15, 2014," said Standard & Poor's credit
analyst Stephen Infranco, "coupled with KershawHealth's continued
weak and below-budget operating performance over the past three
years, including the violation of a debt service coverage covenant
requirement in fiscal 2013."  Furthermore, the continued operating
deficit in fiscal 2014 (unaudited) resulted in another year of weak
coverage of maximum annual debt service (MADS) at 1.2x, according
to Standard & Poor's calculation.

"Declining volumes due to physician turnover, coupled with changes
in treatment patterns and increasing observation status, have had a
negative effect on operating performance," said Mr. Infranco.

S&P assessed KershawHealth's enterprise profile as vulnerable,
characterized by very weak economic fundamentals in a limited
service area with declining business volume and at risk market
share.  S&P assessed its financial profile as adequate, with very
weak financial performance offset by solid liquidity and financial
flexibility.

"Also contributing to the rating decision is KershawHealth's
limited revenue base and status as a small hospital under Standard
& Poor's definition, with net patient revenue below $125 million,"
said Mr. Infranco.  Combined, S&P thinks these credit factors lead
to an indicative rating level of 'bb-'.  As S&P's criteria
indicate, the final rating can be within one notch of the
indicative credit level.  In S&P's view, the 'BB' rating on the
hospital's bonds better reflects the pending long-term lease/asset
sale to Capella Healthcare of Franklin, Tenn. (Capella) and the
Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC).  S&P believes the
benefits of becoming part of a larger health care entity with
greater size and scale should bode well for KershawHealth over the
longer term.

"The stable outlook is supported by KershawHealth's healthy
balance-sheet metrics for the rating level, including ample
liquidity and low leverage," added Mr. Infranco.  This gives
Kershaw some cushion at the 'BB' rating to implement cost-saving
initiatives and consultant recommendations to improve operating
results.  In addition, S&P considers the signing of the letter of
intent and the status of the negotiations, while still not
finalized, a positive credit event and a stabilizing factor.



LIGHTSQUARED INC: Confirmation Hearing Set for March 29
-------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Shelley C. Chapman of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York will hold hearing on March 29, 2015,

Judge Chapman set Feb. 9, 2015, at 4:00 p.m. (prevailing Eastern
time) as deadline for creditors to vote to accept or reject the
plan.  All ballots must be submitted either at:

   a) first class mail, overnight courier, or personal delivery
      to:

                     About LightSquared Inc.

LightSquared Inc. and 19 of its affiliates filed Chapter 11
bankruptcy petitions (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Lead Case No. 12-12080) on
May 14, 2012, to resolve regulatory issues that have prevented it
from building its coast-to-coast integrated satellite 4G wireless
network.

LightSquared had invested more than $4 billion to deploy an
integrated satellite-terrestrial network.  In February 2012,
however, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission told
LightSquared the agency would revoke a license to build out the
network as it would interfere with global positioning systems used
by the military and various industries.  In March 2012, the
Company's partner, Sprint, canceled a master services agreement.
LightSquared's lenders deemed the termination of the Sprint
agreement would trigger cross-defaults under LightSquared's
prepetition credit agreements.

LightSquared and its prepetition lenders attempted to negotiate a
global restructuring that would provide LightSquared with liquidity
and runway necessary to resolve its issues with the FCC.

Despite working diligently and in good faith, however, LightSquared
and the lenders were not able to consummate a global restructuring
on terms acceptable to all interested parties.

MATAGORDA ISLAND: Jan. 27 Hearing on Bid for Case Conversion
------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court will convene a hearing on Jan. 27, 2015,
at 10:00 a.m., to consider the motion to convert the Chapter 11
case of Matagorda Island Gas Operations, LLC, to one under Chapter
7 of the Bankruptcy Code; or in the alternative, dismiss the case.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Jan. 14, 2015, the
Debtor opposed to the U.S. Trustee's motion for
conversion/dismissal, stating that there is no mandatory cause for
dismissal or conversion insofar as the current lack of insurance
poses no credible risk to the estate or to the public at this
time.

Additionally, the Debtor pointed out that it has and continues to
attempt to comply with the order to the debtor in possession and to
obtain the necessary insurance and believes that such insurance can
be put in place prior to the existence of any actual risk to the
estate or public.

Shamrock Energy Solutions, LLC, supports the U.S. Trustee's motion,
but said it believes that it would be in the best interest of all
creditors if the case were converted to a Chapter 7 and not
dismissed.

In its motion for conversion or dismissal, the U.S. Trustee said it
has repeatedly asked the Debtor to obtain and provide proof of
insurance as required by the order to the Debtor starting with the
initial Debtor interview on Sept. 24, 2014, and continuing at the
341 Meetings on Oct. 7, and Nov. 4.  In addition, the attorney and
the analyst for the U.S. Trustee have contacted Debtor's counsel
several times requesting proof of insurance.  According to the U.S.
Trustee, to date, the Debtor has not provided proof to that (1) the
Debtor has general liability insurance and (2) all assets are
covered by property insurance.

MEDIACOM COMMUNICATIONS: Moody's Hikes Corp. Family Rating to Ba3
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service upgraded the Corporate Family Rating
(CFR) of Mediacom Communications Corporation (Mediacom) to Ba3 from
B1 and its Probability of Default Rating to Ba3-PD from B1-PD.
Moody's also upgraded the instrument ratings for its wholly owned
operating subsidiaries, Mediacom LLC and Mediacom Broadband LLC, as
shown. Moody's changed the outlook for Mediacom, Mediacom Broadband
LLC, and Mediacom LLC to stable from positive.

Mediacom Communications Corporation

  Corporate Family Rating, Upgraded to Ba3 from B1

  Probability of Default Rating, Upgraded to Ba3-PD from B1-PD

  Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, Affirmed SGL-2

  Outlook, Changed To Stable From Positive

Mediacom Broadband LLC

  Senior Secured Bank Credit Facility, Upgraded to Ba2, LGD3
  from Ba3, LGD3

  Senior Unsecured Bonds, Upgraded to B2, LGD6 from B3, LGD6

  Outlook, Changed To Stable From Positive

Mediacom LLC

  Senior Secured Bank Credit Facility, Upgraded to Ba2, LGD3
  from Ba3, LGD3

  Senior Unsecured Bonds, Upgraded to B2, LGD6 from B3, LGD6

  Outlook, Changed To Stable From Positive

Ratings Rationale

The CFR upgrade incorporates expectations for Mediacom's leverage
to fall below 5 times debt-to-EBITDA during 2015, driven by
continued repayment of debt with free cash flow and modest EBITDA
growth. Mediacom lowered leverage to approximately 5.1 times (based
on the trailing twelve months through September 30 results and pro
forma for the repayment of the Mediacom LLC Term Loan C at the end
of 2014) from 5.5 times at the end of 2013 and approximately 6.7
times since its leveraging go-private transaction in 2011. Since
that event, Mediacom has repaid approximately $450 million of
debt.

High leverage of approximately 5.1 times debt-to-EBITDA poses risk
for a company operating in a competitive industry with modest
growth prospects, which drives Mediacom's Ba3 CFR. The company's
track record of good free cash flow and debt reduction, expected to
continue, supports the rating, and evidence of commitment to
maintain leverage below 5 times will be critical to sustaining the
Ba3 CFR. Moody's expects Mediacom's revenue and EBITDA per homes
passed to remain below the rated industry average, but views the
stability of the business favorably. The more benign competitive
environment than many rated cable peers creates potential for
continued growth in high speed data subscribers and the commercial
business, though Mediacom continues to lose video subscribers.

The stable outlook assumes Mediacom will continue to grow EBITDA in
the low single digit range and use free cash flow to repay debt
such that the company sustains leverage below 5 times
debt-to-EBITDA. If video subscriber losses accelerate or if growth
in its high speed data penetration ceases, the leverage and free
cash flow targets necessary to sustain a Ba3 rating would likely
change.

Moody's would likely take a negative rating action with
expectations for leverage sustained above 5 times debt-to-EBITDA
whether due to lack of EBITDA growth or a change in fiscal policy.
A material weakening of operating performance due to either
escalating competitive pressure or technological changes, or
deterioration of the liquidity profile could pressure the rating
down.

An upgrade would require a commitment to maintaining a stronger
credit profile including leverage below 3.5 times debt-to-EBITDA
and free cash flow-to-debt in excess of 10%, along with maintenance
of a good liquidity profile. An upgrade would also require
operating metrics such as revenue per homes passed and product
penetration more in line with rated peers.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global Pay
Television - Cable and Direct-to-Home Satellite Operators published
in April 2013. Other methodologies used include Loss Given Default
for Speculative-Grade Non-Financial Companies in the U.S., Canada
and EMEA published in June 2009.

With its headquarters in Mediacom Park, New York, Mediacom
Communications Corporation offers traditional and advanced video
services such as digital television, video-on-demand, digital video
recorders, and high-definition television, as well as high-speed
Internet access and phone service. The company had approximately
890 thousand video subscribers, 997 thousand high speed data
subscribers, and 392 thousand phone subscribers as of September 30,
2014, and primarily serves smaller cities in the midwestern and
southern United States. It operates through two wholly owned
subsidiaries, Mediacom Broadband LLC and Mediacom LLC, and its
annual revenue is approximately $1.6 billion.


MENDOCINO COAST: S&P Affirms 'CCC' Rating on Gen. Obligation Debt
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services affirmed its 'CCC' long-term
rating and underlying rating (SPUR) on Mendocino Coast Health Care
District, Calif.'s general obligation debt and removed the ratings
from CreditWatch with negative implications.  The outlook is
stable.

"The 'CCC' ratings reflect our view that timely and full payments
on these obligations are vulnerable and dependent upon favorable
business, financial, and economic conditions," said Standard &
Poor's credit analyst Jen Hansen.  "However, we anticipate that the
district will maintain credit conditions consistent with the rating
level."

Although the district hopes to be out of bankruptcy by the
beginning of February, the district has self-reported a Stark Law
violation with a potential $11 million negative impact.  The
results and timing of the resolution of this violation could delay
bankruptcy negotiations and severely impact the district's
finances.

The district was admitted to bankruptcy protection under Chapter 9
of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.  Management reports that the district
has not missed a bond payment and projects that bondholders will
continue to be paid.



MERCATOR MINERALS: Starcore Acquires Creston Moly from Trustee
--------------------------------------------------------------
Starcore International Mines Ltd. on Jan. 23 disclosed that it has
entered into an agreement to acquire all of the shares of Creston
Moly Corp. from Deloitte Restructuring Inc, in its capacity as
trustee in bankruptcy of Mercator Minerals Ltd., at a purchase
price of Cdn$2 million.

The Transaction is subject to Creston being discharged from
bankruptcy, clearing the way for Starcore to complete the
Transaction and to continue with the development and further
exploration of Creston's properties, free and clear from Creston's
liabilities as at the date of bankruptcy.  Creston Moly is a
British Columbia company that owns, through its subsidiaries, a
100% interest in three molybdenum-copper projects in Mexico,
British Columbia and Newfoundland.

Background

All technical and non-technical information pertaining to Creston
and Mercator included in the news release has been obtained from
the SEDAR filings of those companies.

In June, 2011, Mercator Minerals Ltd., a TSX listed company,
acquired Creston Moly in a cash and shares deal valuing Creston
Moly at approximately Cdn$194 million.  At that time, the Board of
Directors of Creston Moly, after receiving the recommendation of
its special committee and consultation with its financial and legal
advisors, unanimously supported the arrangement whereby Mercator
would acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of
Creston.  BMO Capital Markets, financial advisor to Creston Moly
and its Board, provided a fairness opinion to the effect that the
consideration (of $194 million) was fair, from a financial point of
view, to the shareholders of Creston Moly. Creston shareholders
voted in favor of the transaction.  The most significant asset in
this acquisition was the El Creston project in Sonora, Mexico which
has been advanced to a completed Preliminary Economic Assessment.

On September 5, 2014, pursuant to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act
(Canada), Mercator and Creston Moly were deemed to have filed
assignments in bankruptcy.

Creston Moly is a British Columbia company that owns, through its
subsidiaries, a 100% interest in the following properties:

--  The El Creston Project in Sonora, Mexico;
--  The Ajax Project in British Columbia; and
--  The Molybrook Project in Newfoundland.

El Creston Project, Sonora, Mexico:(2) The El Creston molybdenum
property is located in the State of Sonora, Mexico, 175 kilometers
south of the US Border and 145 kilometers northeast of the city of
Hermosillo.  In 2010, a PEA was prepared on the project by an
independent consulting firm.  The result of this study indicated
that the El Creston molybdenum-copper deposit had a US$561.9
million net present value after tax (using an 8% discount rate).
The internal rate of return (after tax) was calculated to be 22.3%
and a capital cost payback was calculated to be four years.

Other highlights of the report include:

  --  Large moly-copper deposit in a mining-friendly jurisdiction.
Total Measured and Indicated Resources of 215 million tonnes
grading 0.071% Mo and 0.06% Cu, containing 336 Mlbs Mo and 281 Mlbs
Cu.  Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have
demonstrated economic viability;

--  Initial Capital cost: US$655.9 million with payback of 4
years, based on metal prices of $15/lb Mo and $2.60/lb Cu.  Metal
recoveries were estimated at 88% for Mo and 84% for Cu;

--  Low Operating Cost: operating cost of $US4.12/lb Mo, net of
copper credits, 0.84:1 waste to ore strip ratio within an optimized
pit containing an additional 7.6 million tonnes of Inferred
Resources responsible for $20M of the NPV;

--  Excellent infrastructure: Road accessible with a 230kV power
grid within 50 km;

--  Apart from the PEA, recommendations have been made to test
known mineralization below the current pit-limiting "Creston Fault"
where results such as drill hole EC08-54 returned 241.4m at 0.083%
Mo and 0.059% Cu to a depth of 495m in the Red Hill Deep zone.

David Gunning, P.Eng., a director of the Company and Chief
Operating Officer, is the Company's qualified person under NI
43-101, and has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical
disclosure on the El Creston Project disclosed in this news
release.

Ajax, British Columbia:(3)

Ajax Molybdenum Property is comprised of 11,718 hectares and is
located 13 km north of Alice Arm, British Columbia.  The Ajax
Property, one of North America's largest undeveloped molybdenum
deposits occupying a surface area of approximately 600 by 650
metres, is a world class primary molybdenum property in the
advanced stage of exploration.

Molybrook, Newfoundland(4)

Creston's Molybrook molybdenum property located on the south coast
of Newfoundland is centred 2.5 km from the outport of Grey River
less than 4 kilometres from a deep water, ice free navigable fjord.
The property hosts a 3 km long trend in which at least three zones
of at surface molybdenum mineralization occur: Molybrook, Wolf and
Chimney Pond.  To date, almost all exploration has been completed
on the Molybrook Zone where a large porphyry molybdenum deposit has
been outlined.

"We have taken the opportunity to acquire an undervalued project in
Creston Moly, which comes with a Preliminary Economic Assessment on
El Creston, along with two other high quality projects in Canada"
said Robert Eadie, President & CEO of Starcore.  "Despite the
current state of moly and copper prices, we are looking at an asset
that was acquired for $194 million over three years ago.  We
believe that the outlook for moly and copper will undoubtedly
improve in the future, possibly making this a tremendous asset
acquisition!"

Trustee.  McMillan LLP acted as legal advisor to Starcore.

NETFLIX INC: Moody's Cuts CFR to B1 & Revises Outlook to Stable
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded Netflix, Inc.'s (Netflix)
Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to B1 from Ba3, Probability of
Default Rating to Ba3-PD from Ba2-PD and senior unsecured debt
rating to B1 from Ba3. Moody's also revised the company's rating
outlook to stable from positive. The Speculative Grade Liquidity
rating remains unchanged at SGL-1.

Downgrades:

Issuer: Netflix, Inc.

  Probability of Default Rating, Downgraded to Ba3-PD from Ba2-PD

  Corporate Family Rating (Local Currency), Downgraded to B1
  from Ba3

  Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture (Local Currency)
  Mar 1, 2024, Downgraded to B1,LGD4 from Ba3,LGD4

  Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture (Local Currency)
  Feb 1, 2021, Downgraded to B1,LGD4 from Ba3,LGD4

Outlook Actions:

Issuer: Netflix, Inc.

  Outlook, Changed To Stable From Positive

The rating action was precipitated by the company's announcement
that it plans to increase debt by at least $1 billion to fund
accelerated international expansion in new territories and
materially increase investment in original owned programming to
support long-term growth and increase long-term profitability. The
downgrade of the CFR to B1 is not a reflection of Moody's view of
the strategic benefits of completing the company's global footprint
more quickly or increasing spending on owned original content. It
reflects Moody's view that the issuance of incremental debt to fund
both the significantly increased negative cash flows for the new
territory startup costs and the upfront working capital for the
significant shift from licensing to production spending will lead
to leverage levels meaningfully above the 4.0x sustained leverage
upper threshold for the Ba3 rating during Moody's two year rating
horizon. Moody's estimate that on a pro forma basis, an increase of
$1 billion of total debt, will increase consolidated debt-to-EBITDA
by about two turns to 4.3x from 2.3x (as of 12/31/2014 and
incorporating Moody's standard adjustments). "Further, based on the
company's public guidance for weaker operating results in 2015
relative to 2014, Moody's believe that the combination of a decline
in EBITDA over the near term and an increase in absolute debt
levels will further push leverage past the limit appropriate for a
Ba rating as that leverage could climb to over 6.0x in 2015,"
stated Neil Begley a Moody's Senior Vice president.

Moody's note that the company's risk profile will increase
materially given Moody's expectations for persistent and
significantly higher negative free cash flows going forward,
resulting from significant upfront payments related to original
programming. "This is a significant deviation from the company's
historical financial policies with regard to credit metrics and
concerns, which entailed a disciplined approach to expanding
operations in new territories with the use of internally generated
funds and maintenance of high cash balances in excess of total
funded debt," stated Begley. In light of the company's stated
intentions to increase investments in its core business and expand
operations rapidly, Moody's believe that Netflix is now pursuing a
financial policy that will lead to debt being sustained at higher
levels than previously envisaged. Given that Netflix plans to
accelerate investments in originals and continue to expand its
footprint in new regions, Moody's believe that the need to issue
additional debt (beyond $1 billion) by 2016 will remain compelling
in light of possible liquidity constraints due to continued
negative free cash flows and absence of a revolving credit
facility. Pro forma for $1 billion of debt issuance, the company's
cash balance (including short-term investments) stood at $2.6
billion as of 12/31/2014, which although currently strong may still
not be sufficient to support the company's investment needs beyond
2016 without a further debt raise. Moody's notes that the B1 rating
therefore allows for some headroom for further debt issuances, but
the final impact on ratings and the financial risk profile would
depend on the amount and timing of any additional borrowings, and
the company's subscriber and profit performance.

"Moody's recognizes the strategic importance of producing original
programming and owning exclusive content for Netflix to distinguish
itself with valuable franchises such as House of Cards and Orange
is the New Black," stated Begley. Moody's believe that the
company's move to aggressively invest in originals will allow it
flexibility to leverage the portfolio it builds over time in
multiple markets, across various distribution platforms and grow
its subscriber base by attracting viewers with exclusive and
premium content. These investments will not only give opportunities
to boost long-term growth but also build the company's asset base
and increase the value of its library. "Nevertheless, producing
original shows carries inherent risks and uncertainties versus
licensing proven product with audience appeal," added Begley.
However, unlike film studios, television and Internet networks can
chose to exhibit a show only for a limited time period and not to
fund additional episodes if the show fails to garner impressive
results.

As such, Moody's consider the developments to be in line with
Netflix's strategy to augment its content slate with high quality
originals with global appeal and strengthen its competitive
position to attract and retain customers. Accordingly, Moody's
think that these investments could improve Netflix's business
profile and earnings over the long-term but the company's ratings
are constrained by Moody's concerns that the planned cash outlays
involve a certain and increasing degree of risk, which along with
higher levels of debt and negative free cash flows, weigh heavily
on the company's credit profile. To be sure, while Moody's no
longer expect the improvement in financial metrics that supported
the prior positive outlook due to the change in managements
financial risk profile given the planned increase in debt, Moody's
expect that Netflix will continue to demonstrate strong operating
performance and exhibit operating characteristics that could be
consistent with a higher rating as markets turn profitable, and
leverage improves. These include its large scale of operations,
solid execution across its business segments, a significant
subscriber base and its leading position as an internet SVOD
service provider.

Ratings Rationale

Netflix's B1 CFR is supported by the company's position as the
largest content streaming subscription service in the U.S., with a
sizeable subscriber base and a market leading streaming product
offering. The rating also reflects the company's high pro forma
debt-to-EBITDA of approximately 4.3x (pro forma for $1 billion of
incremental debt and incorporating Moody's standard adjustments)
and expectations for higher leverage and negative free cash flow
generation resulting from significant cash outlays for content
costs. The rating also incorporates key business risks, which
include business concentration, and risks associated with low
barriers to entry and the potential for disintermediation from
competitors in the distribution of content. The company's past
predisposition for share repurchases (having repurchased almost $1
billion from 2007 to 2011), significant subscriber churn and
relatively low EBITDA margins compared to traditional media
companies continue to weigh on its credit profile, though Moody's
do not anticipate that the company will pay any dividends to
shareholders or buy back shares over the intermediate-term.

Netflix has successfully developed a digital business model and has
evolved into the dominant online content streaming company in the
US and some international territories from a pure physical DVD
rental subscription service, as evidenced by strong double digit
top-line growth in total revenues over the last eight quarters.
However, Netflix's business continues to be in transition with the
next few years being crucial to its developing a profitable
streaming business across various international territories that
can balance potential saturation in the domestic segment and fully
offset the rapidly declining profits from the high margin DVD
business. Its B1 CFR reflects the execution risk associated with
this transition, especially in the context of a broad range of
emerging disruptive competitors with low entry barriers, and the
evolving digital content distribution landscape that may hamper the
subscriber growth it needs in order to successfully build and
sustain a streaming business model, strong enough to withstand
competitive pressures, and balance significant investment demands.

Rating Outlook

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Netflix's
operating results will improve and the company will de-lever
following hitting peak leverage in 2015 through EBITDA and cash
flow growth starting in 2017, recognizing that over the short-term,
debt to EBITDA will likely exceed levels typical for the B1
rating.

What could change the rating -- UP

Given the material increase in permanent debt and change in fiscal
policies by the company's management, an upgrade is unlikely in the
near term. However, ratings could be upgraded if Netflix's mature
markets can fund new market launches and increases in content spend
such that it can maintain a significant lead on its content
offering relative to competitors, while sustaining leverage below
4.0x. A strong commitment from management to a higher rating will
be necessary for an upgrade.

What could change the rating -- DOWN

Ratings could be downgraded if leverage is sustained above 6.0x for
an extended time frame (beyond 2016). The company's rating may face
downward pressure if it experiences domestic streaming subscriber
growth of under 4 million per year until it reaches above 40
million US subscribers, and is unable to maintain domestic and
equally mature markets' margins above 12%. Expectations for
deterioration in long-term growth due to competitive pressures or
operational setbacks and liquidity constrains could also lead to a
downgrade.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Service Industry published in December 2014. Other
methodologies used include Loss Given Default for Speculative-Grade
Non-Financial Companies in the U.S., Canada and EMEA published in
June 2009.

The Company is positioning itself to emerge as a multi revenue
stream "Next Generation" media-company, representing the

multiple platform dynamics for interactivity on TV, Video On
Demand (VOD) and web solutions.  The Company has worked with
multiple distributors beta testing its platforms as part of its
roll out of TV programming and VOD Networks.  The list of multi-
system operators the Company has worked with includes Comcast,
Cox, Time Warner and Direct TV.  At present the Company operates
the Home Tour Network through its minority owned/joint venture
real estate partner -- RealBiz Media.  As of July 17, 2012, the
Home Tour Network features over 4,300 home listings in four cities
on the Cox Communications network.

The Company incurred a net loss of $18.3 million on $1.56 million
of total revenues for the year ended Feb. 28, 2014, as compared

As of Nov. 30, 2014, the Company had $3.91 million in total assets,

concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements for
the year ended Feb. 28, 2014.  The independent auditors noted that
the Company has incurred net losses of $18.3 million and net cash

2014, and the Company had an accumulated deficit of $87.6
million and a working capital deficit of $13.5 million at Feb. 28,

generate revenue, we may be unable to repay our outstanding debt
when due and may be forced to seek protection under the federal

NNN PARKWAY: Balks at WBCMT's Bid to Surcharge Collateral
---------------------------------------------------------
NNN Parkway 400 26, LLC, et al., opposed to WBCMT 2007-C31
Amberpark Office Limited Partnership's motion to surcharge
collateral.

In June 2013, the lender filed a motion for relief from stay
contending that the value of the property was $20.8 million based
on an appraisal dated April 2013.

In its opposition, the Debtor said that the services of the
Debtors' professionals did not duplicate the services of the
property manager as the lender contended.

Additionally, of the approximate $1.16 million in total fees and
costs incurred by the Debtors' professionals during the bankruptcy
cases, the Debtors heeded the Court's caution to be appropriately
selective in their request for surchargeable fees and costs.  It
is indisputable that $44,800 of these fees and costs, or 3.9%,
resulted in a quantifiable benefit to the lender, as demonstrated
by the Lender's own admission that the value of the property
increased by $3.7 million after replacement of the property
manager.

rating on the debt indicates S&P's expectation of a substantial
(70% to 90%) recovery in the event of a payment default.  In
addition, S&P affirmed its 'BB-' issue-level rating on the
company's senior unsecured debt.  The '4' recovery rating on the
debt indicates S&P's expectation of an average (30% to 50%)
recovery in the event of a payment default.

"The negative outlook is based on our assumption that coal prices
will remain depressed for at least another year.  As a result, we
see an increased likelihood that Peabody's debt to EBITDA ratio
will remain above 5x through 2015," said Standard & Poor's credit
analyst Chiza Vitta.

S&P could lower the rating if market conditions continue to
deteriorate and leverage is sustained above 7x, or it becomes more
certain that leverage will remain above 5x through the end of 2015.
S&P could also lower its rating if the cushion relating to secured
debt leverage or interest coverage covenants dropped below 15%.
However, S&P expects Peabody would be able to negotiate covenant
relief given our view that it has sound relationships with
lenders.

S&P would revise its outlook back to stable if coal prices improve
more quickly than S&P currently anticipates or if the company is
able to cut costs and take other measures such that leverage drops
below 5x in 2015.

its recent acquisition of Global Energy Solutions, Ltd., and its
subsidiaries, focuses on the farming of whole fruits, vegetables
and live plant material and the production of proprietary
functional foods and botanical extracts for the health and

a net loss of $2.96 million on $359,000 of revenues for the year
ended June 30, 2013.

"We have historically lost money.  The loss for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2014 was $15,533,819 and future losses are likely to
occur.  Accordingly, we may experience significant liquidity and
cash flow problems if we are not able to raise additional capital
as needed and on acceptable terms.  No assurances can be given we
will be successful in reaching or maintaining profitable
operations," Plandai stated in its quarterly reported for the
period ended Sept. 30, 2014.

assets, $14.6 million in total liabilities and a $3.69 million
equity allocated to the Company.

"The Company has incurred a deficit of approximately $26 million
and has used approximately $44 million of cash due to its
operating activities in the two years ended June 30, 2014.  The
Company may not have adequate readily available resources to fund
operations through June 30, 2015.  This raises substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern," the
auditors noted.


PLATFORM SPECIALTY: S&P Retains 'BB' CCR Over Resized Notes
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that its ratings on U.S.
specialty chemicals producer Platform Specialty Products Corp. are
not affected by the company's decision to resize its proposed
incremental term loan and senior unsecured notes.  The company
plans to upsize its proposed senior secured notes to $1 billion
from $500 million and to downsize its incremental loan to $500
million from $1 billion.  This resizing does not affect the 'BB'
corporate credit rating or stable outlook.

Issue and recovery ratings also remain unchanged.  On Jan. 12,
2015, S&P assigned its 'BB' issue-level rating and '3' recovery
rating to the proposed term loan, indicating its expectation for
meaningful recovery (50% to 70%) if a payment default occurs.  S&P
also assigned its 'BB-' issue-level rating and '5' recovery rating
to the company's proposed senior unsecured notes, indicating its
expectation of modest recovery (10% to 30%) in the event of a
payment default.

Company's ability to continue as a going concern as the Company has
reported a net loss of for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013, and had an
accumulated deficit as of Dec. 31, 2013, that raises doubt about

Bar Code Specialties, Inc., which were acquired in 2014 and the
respective audit reports for those did not contain the explanatory
paragraphs relative to going concern issues.

appointed Kurt Thomet to serve as president of the Company,
according to a Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission on Jan. 21, 2015.  

Mr. Kurt Thomet, age 55, was the founder and president of Quest

prior name of the Company, in January 2014, and he has served as
the president of Quest Marketing, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company, since its founding in 1994.  Prior to founding

manufacturer of mobile data terminals before it went public and
sold to Spectra Physics.  From 1991 to 1993, Mr. Thomet served as

RADIO ONE: Finc'l Covenants Amendment No Impact on Moody's B3 CFR
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service says on January 21, 2015, Radio One Inc.
executed an amendment to its credit agreement which relaxes
financial maintenance covenants through the March 31, 2016 term
loan maturity. The company also announced plans to acquire the
47.5% of TV One that it does not already own from Comcast
Corporation (A3, positive). Management expects the TV One
transaction to close sometime in the 1st half of 2015 and will seek
to further amend or refinance its credit facilities. The relaxation
of financial tests has no immediate impact on credit ratings as
Moody's expects the company's operating performance and credit
metrics to remain within its B3 Corporate Family Rating.
Furthermore, Moody's expect the company will be able to refinance
or extend the maturities of its credit facilities including the
term loan which matures in March 2016. Although the existing $25
million revolver expires in two months (March 31, 2015), Moody's
believe the company will have adequate liquidity post expiry and
leading up to the refinancing of credit facilities with an
estimated $49 million of cash balances (excluding roughly $21
million of cash at TV One). The amendment also excludes any "going
concern" or qualified audit opinion solely as a result of the near
term revolver or term loan maturities from the Event of Default
provisions of the credit agreement.

Management is looking at potential alternatives to financing the
planned acquisition of the minority interests of TV One, and
Moody's will need to review the company's final plan including
likely increases in debt balances. The company's 9.25% senior sub
notes issued in February 2014 includes a 7.0x (as defined)
incurrence test which Moody's expect will keep leverage in line
with current levels upon closing of the planned acquisition of the
minority interests of TV One. Radio One's B3 corporate family
rating reflects high debt-to-EBITDA of roughly 7.1x estimated by
Moody's for the restricted group for the 12 months ended December
31, 2014 (including Moody's standard adjustments, plus TV One
dividends, or 6.7x net debt-to-EBITDA) and Moody's expectation that
revenue and EBITDA for radio operations will partially rebound over
the next 12 months resulting in leverage improving to less than
7.0x with low to mid-single digit percentage free cash flow-to-debt
ratios. Management's actions to turn around station performance in
Houston combined with significant contractual cost reductions for
Reach Media will support EBITDA growth and improvement in credit
metrics.

Radio One Inc., headquartered in Silver Spring, MD, is an urban
oriented multi-media company that operates or owns interests in
radio broadcasting stations (48% of restricted group gross revenue
as of LTM September 2014 generated by 54 stations in 16 markets),
an approximate 52% ownership in TV One, a cable television network
(34% of revenue), an 80% ownership in Reach Media featuring the Tom
Joyner Morning Show (12% of revenue), and ownership of Interactive
One as well as other internet-based properties (6% of revenue),
largely targeting the African-American audience. The Chairperson,
Catherine L. Hughes, and President, Alfred C. Liggins III
(Chairperson's son), hold roughly 94% of the outstanding voting
power and 46% of economic interest of the common stock. The company
reported consolidated revenue of $449 million for the 12 months
ended September 30, 2014.



RADIOSHACK CORP: Gets Another Delisting Warning From NYSE

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.



SABINE OIL: Dod Fraser Quits From Board of Directors
----------------------------------------------------
Dod A. Fraser resigned from the board of directors of Sabine Oil &
Gas Corporation on Jan. 16, 2015.  Mr. Fraser's resignation did not
result from any disagreement with the Board or the Company
regarding any matter related to the Company's operations, policies
or practices, according to a regulatory filing with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission.

Moreover, Sabine Oil disclosed that it filed a registration
statement on Form S-4 containing a preliminary proxy statement with

independent energy company engaged in the acquisition, production,

properties in the United States.  Sabine's current operations are
principally located in Cotton Valley Sand and Haynesville Shale in
East Texas, the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas, and the Granite

Ernst & Young LLP, in Denver, Colorado, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements of Forest
Oil for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013.  The independent accounting
firm noted that the Company has determined that it expects to fail
a financial covenant in its Credit Facility sometime prior to the
end of 2014, which could result in the acceleration of all
borrowings thereunder and the Company's senior unsecured notes due
2019 and 2020.  This raises substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, the Company had
$927 million in total assets, $1.07 billion in total
liabilities, and a $148 million shareholders' deficit.

SKYMALL LLC: Seeks Parties to Participate in Asset Auction
----------------------------------------------------------
On Jan. 22, 2015, parent company Xhibit Corp. filed for chapter 11
protection for SkyMall, LLC (Case No. 2:15-bk-00679-BKM).  The
Board determined that SkyMall's available capital resources were
insufficient to continue the business transformation that has been
underway since early 2014, and external debt and equity financing
alternatives were unavailable. Operating as Debtors-in-Possession,
SkyMall is pursuing an expedited sale under Sec. 363 of the Code.
Prior to the filing, SkyMall announced a significant reduction in
force and suspended the operation of SkyMall's retail catalog
business.  SkyMall intends to continue operating its online retail
business and other businesses, as it explores available strategic
alternatives during the bankruptcy.  The business remains a going
concern.  SkyMall is soliciting parties interested in participating
in an auction, which SkyMall is asking the Court to set on March
24, 2015 for substantially all its operations, IP, real estate, and
other assets.  The Stalking Horse role is still available.

SOLAR POWER: Agrees to Issue 2.5 Million Shares to Central Able
---------------------------------------------------------------
Solar Power, Inc., and Central Able Investments Limited, a company
incorporated under the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative
Region, entered into an option agreement, pursuant to which the
Company agreed to grant Central Able an option to purchase
2,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001
per share, at the exercise price of $2.00 per share for an
aggregate purchase price of $5,000,000.

Pursuant to the Option, the Company agreed to issue 2,500,000
shares of Common Stock to Central Able upon exercise in full of the
Option pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Option
Agreement.

                         About Solar Power

Roseville, Cal.-based Solar Power, Inc., is a global solar
energy facility ("SEF") developer offering its own brand of high-
quality, low-cost distributed generation and utility-scale SEF
development services.  Primarily, the Company works directly with
and for developers around the world who hold large portfolios of
SEF projects for whom it serves as an engineering, procurement and
construction contractor.  The Company also performs as an
independent, turnkey SEF developer for one-off distributed
generation and utility-scale SEFs.

Solar Power reported a net loss of $32.2 million in 2013
following a net loss of $25.4 million in 2012.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2014, showed $113 million
in total assets, $61.2 million in total liabilities, and
$51.7 million in stockholders' equity.

Crowe Horwath LLP, in San Francisco, California, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013.  The independent auditors noted
that the Company has incurred a current year net loss of $32.2
million, has an accumulated deficit of $56.1 million, has
experienced a significant reduction in working capital, has past
due related party accounts payable and a debt facility under which
a bank has declared amounts immediately due and payable.
Additionally, the Company's parent company LDK Solar Co., Ltd has
experienced significant financial difficulties including the
filing of a winding up petition on Feb. 24, 2014.  These matters
raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern, the auditors noted.


SOLENIS INT'L: S&P Retains 'B' Rating Over $85MM Debt Add-On
------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said its ratings, including its
'B' issue-level rating on Solenis International L.P.'s
euro-denominated first-lien senior secured term loan, remain
unchanged following the company's announcement of an $85 million
add-on to that loan, which is due in 2019.  S&P had assigned a 'B'
issue-level rating and a '3' recovery rating to $1.14 billion in
first-lien debt, including euro-denominated debt (U.S. dollar
equivalent of $315 million at the time of issue) on June 18, 2014.


S&P's recovery rating on the first-lien debt, including
euro-denominated debt, remains unchanged at '3', indicating
meaningful recovery (50% to 70%) if a payment default occurs.  The
add-on is being raised under the existing credit agreement.
Solenis will use proceeds to finance a bolt-on acquisition.  S&P
anticipates that the ratio of funds from operations to total debt
will remain around its expected level of about 10% in 2015, pro
forma for the modest-sized acquisition.

S&P derives its 'B' corporate credit rating on Solenis from S&P's
anchor of 'b', based on its assessments of a "fair" business risk
and "highly leveraged" financial risk profile for the company.
There is no impact from any modifier on the ratings.

SPEEDWAY MOTORSPORTS: Moody's Affirms Ba1 Corporate Family Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed Speedway Motorsports, Inc.'s
(SMI) Ba1 corporate family rating (CFR) and assigned a Ba2 rating
to the proposed $200 million senior note due 2023. The outlook is
stable.

The use of proceeds of the note and a $50 million draw on its
delayed draw term loan will be used to repay the existing $250
million 6.75% senior notes due 2019 when it becomes callable in
February 2015. The ratings on the senior notes will be withdrawn
upon repayment.

The new credit facility issued in December 2014, which will not be
rated by Moody's, include a $100 million 5 year revolver, $150
million term loan A, and $50 million delayed draw term loan.

The transaction is expected to extend its debt maturity profile,
provide additional room under its financial covenants, and lead to
modest interest expense savings.

Issuer: Speedway Motorsports Inc.

  Corporate Family Rating, affirmed Ba1

  Probability of Default Rating, affirmed Ba1-PD

  $200 million proposed Senior Unsecured note due 2023,
  Assigned Ba2, LGD5

  Speculative-grade liquidity (SGL) rating upgraded to SGL-2
  from SGL-3

  Outlook Stable

Rating Rationale

SMI's Ba1 corporate family rating (CFR) reflects its strong market
position within the motor sports industry, relatively high
operating margins, revenue supported by entitlements to 13 NASCAR
Sprint Cup races and other motor sports events at 8 SMI owned
facilities, and broadcast rights under a new 10 year NASCAR
agreement starting in 2015. The new TV broadcast agreement is a
significant positive given the increase in broadcast revenue to the
company which contributes to EBITDA at a high margin level.
Broadcast revenue is anticipated to increase almost 5% in 2015. The
company also benefits from a large cash balance and good free cash
flow which has been directed in part toward debt reduction over the
past several years. Moody's expect the company will continue to
paydown significant amounts of debt over the next 12 to 18 months.

The company has suffered from declines in attendance and ticket
prices which Moody's believe are due to a weak economy and reduced
fan interest in NASCAR racing. Given the high fixed cost nature of
the business, EBITDA levels have declined over the past several
years despite annual broadcast right increases under the existing
contract ending in 2014. There is also key man risk as the current
CEO indirectly holds a majority ownership position of SMI and the
succession plan is unclear. In addition, debt-to-EBITDA leverage
(3.1x LTM 9/30/14 incorporating Moody's standard adjustments) is at
the high end for the existing CFR. Despite the declines in EBITDA,
consistent debt repayment has kept leverage in the mid 3x range in
prior years and has led to a reduction in leverage from 3.5x in Q3
2013. Moody's expect credit metrics to improve slowly through debt
reduction that will lead leverage to decline below 3x by the end of
2015.

The SGL-2 rating indicates good liquidity supported by the new $100
million revolving credit facility, a cash balance of $104 million
as of 9/30/14, and interest coverage pro-forma for the proposed
transaction of approximately 7x. SMI is projected to generate free
cash flow in 2015 of over $50 million which Moody's expect will be
used in part to paydown the term loan over the next 12 to 18 months
in addition to the 5% (or $10 million) required annual term loan
amortization payment. SMI is subject to a total leverage ratio of
3.5x which will step down to 3.25x in Q4 2015 and an interest
coverage ratio of 3.25x. Moody's anticipate that the company will
maintain a sufficient cushion of compliance.

The stable rating outlook reflects our expectation that SMI will
continue to generate good free cash flow, reduce debt, and maintain
a good liquidity position. Moody's anticipate that EBITDA will
decline modestly and continue to be pressured by weaker attendance,
but expect leverage to decline below 3x by the end of 2015 as the
company continues to reduce debt.

Given the relatively high leverage for the existing rating, the
small size of the company, and declines in admission revenues, an
upgrade is not anticipated in the near term. However, positive
admission revenue, a larger revenue base, a strong liquidity
position, and debt-to-EBITDA sustained below 1.75x with free cash
flow-to-debt above 10% after incorporating potential acquisitions
and shareholder distributions, could lead to an upgrade.

Debt-to-EBITDA leverage above 3x on a sustained basis would lead to
a downgrade. Debt-financed acquisitions, large cash distributions
to shareholders, major development projects, or a sustained decline
in profitability due to a deterioration in spectator interest in
NASCAR, extended cyclical downturn, or decline in fan attendance at
sporting events due to acts of terrorism or other disruption could
negatively affect the rating. Pressure on liquidity including
failure to maintain sufficient covenant headroom could also lead to
downward rating pressure.

Speedway Motorsports, Inc. (SMI), headquartered in Concord, NC, is
the second largest promoter, marketer and sponsor of motor sports
activities in the U.S. primarily through its ownership of eight
major race tracks. NASCAR sanctioned events account for the
majority of SMI's $482 million revenue for the LTM ended 9/30/14.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Service Industry published in December 2014. Other
methodologies used include Loss Given Default for Speculative-Grade
Non-Financial Companies in the U.S., Canada and EMEA published in
June 2009.



SPEEDWAY MOTORSPORTS: S&P Assigns 'BB+' Rating on $200MM Sr. Notes
------------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned Charlotte, N.C.-based
motorsports entertainment company Speedway Motorsports Inc.'s (SMI)
proposed $200 million senior unsecured notes due 2023 its BB+'
issue-level rating (the same as the 'BB+' corporate credit rating)
and '4' recovery rating.  The '4' recovery rating reflects S&P's
expectation of average (30% to 50%) recovery for lenders in the
event of a payment default.  SMI plans to use the proceeds from the
notes issuance, as well as borrowings on the credit facility and
cash on hand, to redeem all of the company's outstanding $250
million 6.75% senior unsecured notes due 2019.

In December 2014, S&P raised the corporate credit rating on SMI one
notch to 'BB+', reflecting S&P's belief that the company can
improve and will likely sustain adjusted debt to EBITDA to below 3x
in 2015, in line with an "intermediate" financial risk assessment.
S&P believes that the company will continue to use excess cash to
pay down debt balances in 2015 and for as long as ongoing uncertain
economic conditions continue to impair the company's consumer base.
However, S&P believes that modest growth in events-related and
broadcasting revenue will offset lower attendance at events and
translate into flat EBITDA in 2015.  As a result, S&P believes that
debt to EBITDA will improve to the mid-2x area and EBITDA coverage
of interest expense will be over 6x in 2015.

TASEKO MINES: S&P Lowers Corp. Credit Rating to 'B-'; Outlook Neg.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it lowered its long-term
corporate credit and issue-level ratings on British Columbia-based
copper producer Taseko Mining Ltd. to 'B-' from 'B'.  The outlook
is negative.  The '3' recovery rating on the company's unsecured
notes is unchanged and reflects our view of meaningful (50%-70%)
recovery in a simulated default scenario.

"The downgrade reflects our expectation that Taseko will generate
weaker–than-expected cash flow over the next two years, and
follows the downward revision of our copper price assumptions over
this period to US$2.70 per pound from US$3.10 per pound," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Jarrett Bilous.

Based on S&P's revised earnings and cash flow estimates, it expects
Taseko will generate an adjusted debt-to-EBITDA ratio well above 5x
through 2015, which breaches S&P's previous downside rating
trigger.  

Standard & Poor's now views Taseko's financial risk profile as
"highly leveraged," with no change in its "vulnerable" business
risk profile on the company, resulting in a 'b-' anchor score and
final rating of 'B-'.  S&P revised its financial risk assessment to
"highly leveraged" from "aggressive" primarily to reflect its view
of the company's weaker cash flow prospects through next year and
corresponding negative impact on Taseko's core ratios and liquidity
assessment.  The company's business risk profile remains
"vulnerable" given Taseko's limited operating diversity and high
cash costs, which increase its susceptibility to market
fluctuations and unexpected production disruptions.

The negative outlook reflects the possibility of a downgrade if
Taseko's liquidity deteriorates significantly through 2015, which
S&P believes could result from continuing copper price weakness,
sustained cash cost pressure, or operational disruptions.  S&P
estimates that Taseko has sufficient liquidity to fund expected
cash outflows through 2016.

S&P would lower the rating again if Taseko's liquidity position
deteriorates to a point where S&P believes the company may not be
able to fund its financial commitments over the next 12-18 months.
In this scenario, S&P would expect average copper prices to be
about in line with or lower than its current assumption, along with
sustained or intensified cost pressure, or operational
disruptions.

A positive rating action could result from an improvement in S&P's
liquidity assessment to "adequate," which S&P assumes would require
a sustained increase in average copper prices above S&P's current
base-case assumptions alongside a sustained improvement in Taseko's
cash cost of production.

VIGGLE INC: Appoints SFX as Exclusive Sales Agent
-------------------------------------------------
Viggle Inc. disclosed in a Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission that it entered into a sales agency
agreement with SFX-94 LLC, a subsidiary of SFX Entertainment, Inc.,
pursuant to which the Company appoints SFX as its exclusive sales
agent for the sale of advertising and sponsorships.  

Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, the Company consents to SFX's
hiring of 25 members of the Company's sales team, and SFX agrees
that it will sell advertising and sponsorships on behalf of Viggle
during the term of the Sales Agreement.  The Agent agrees that it
will maintain adequate staffing levels, generally consistent with
staffing levels currently maintained by the Company, for the
Company's sale of advertising and sponsorships.  The Company will
pay SFX a 25% commission on sales made by SFX.  For barter
transactions, the Company will reimburse SFX for any out of pocket
and direct costs incurred by SFX with respect to those barter sales
(rather than the commission), and third party ad networks will be
excluded from the Sales Agreement.

The Sales Agreement will have a three-year term, and can be
terminated by the Company on 90 days' notice.

As previously been reported, the Company and SFX Entertainment,
Inc., are parties to a shared services agreement, pursuant to which
Viggle provided certain services to SFX Entertainment and was
reimbursed for such costs by SFX Entertainment, subject to
reimbursement based on salary and benefits for the employees
providing the services, plus 20% for miscellaneous overhead, based
on a reasonable estimate of time spent.  The Company entered into
an amendment to the Shared Services Agreement on Jan. 22, 2015,
pursuant to which the Company may provide additional services to
SFX Entertainment, and SFX Entertainment may provide certain
services to the Company.  In particular, the Shared Services
Agreement provides that, in addition to services already provided,
certain employees of the Company may provide human resources,
content and programming, and facilities services to SFX
Entertainment. Inc., subject to reimbursement based on salary and
benefits for the employees providing the services, plus 20% for
miscellaneous overhead, based on a reasonable estimate of time
spent.  In addition, the Amendment provides that SFX Entertainment
may provide certain tax, accounting, financial accounting services
to the Company, subject to reimbursement based on salary and
benefits for the employees providing the services, plus 20% for
miscellaneous overhead, based on a reasonable estimate of time
spent.

On Jan. 22, 2015, Greg Consiglio, the Company's president and chief
operating officer, entered into an agreement with SFX to serve as
its president and chief operating officer.  Mr. Consiglio will
remain president and chief operating officer of the Company. Mr.
Consiglio's employment agreement with the Company has been amended
to provide that he will be able to serve in both those roles.  The
agreement provides that Mr. Consiglio will devote his full-time
best efforts and business time and attention to the Company,
subject to his also fulfilling his responsibilities as president
and chief operating officer of SFX.  The terms of the sharing of
Mr. Consiglio's full time will be subject to monitoring by the
respective Boards of Directors or a committee of disinterested
members of the respective Boards of Directors.  Mr. Consiglio also
agrees that he will report conflicts of interest and corporate
opportunities to the Boards of both the Company and SFX
Entertainment.

The amendment to Mr. Consiglio's employment agreement further
provides that, in lieu of payment of a $250,000 guaranteed amount
currently contemplated in his employment agreement, Mr. Consiglio
will receive a grant of 200,000 restricted shares of Company common
stock, half of which will vest on the date of grant and the other
half of which will vest on May 5, 2015, subject to his still being
employed by the Company and providing services to the Company on
that date.

On Jan. 22, 2015, Kevin Arrix, the Company's chief revenue officer,
entered into an agreement with SFX to serve as its executive vice
president, Global Brand Partnerships.  In connection therewith, his
employment agreement with the Company has been amended to provide
that he will be able to serve in both such roles.  Mr. Arrix's
employment agreement with the Company has been amended to provide
that he will be able to serve in both such roles.  The agreement
provides that Mr. Arrix will devote his full-time best efforts and
business time and attention to the Company, subject to his also
fulfilling his responsibilities to SFX Entertainment.  The terms of
the sharing of Mr. Arrix's full time will be subject to monitoring
by the respective Boards of Directors or a committee of
disinterested members of the respective Boards of Directors.  Mr.
Arrix also agrees that he will report conflicts of interest and
corporate opportunities to the Boards of both the Company and SFX
Entertainment.

Additionally, the amendment to Mr. Arrix's employment agreement
provides that, in lieu of payment of a $250,000 guaranteed amount
currently contemplated in his employment agreement, he will receive
a grant of 100,000 restricted shares of Company common stock, half
of which will vest immediately and the other half of which shall
vest on May 15, 2015.

In connection with these appointments, the Company has implemented
an internal re-organization.  In recognition of longstanding
service to the business, John Small, the Company's chief financial
officer, and Kyle Brink, the Company's SVP of product development,
will each have expanded roles in the Company.  Mr. Small will now
also oversee Business Development, Rewards, Choose Digital and
Content Development.  In addition to Product Development, Mr. Brink
will will also oversee Creative, Design and Customer Experience.
Both Mr. Small and Mr. Brink will continue to report to Mr.
Consiglio.

Because the transactions were between the Company and SFX, a
company controlled by Robert F.X. Sillerman, who is the executive
chairman and chief executive officer of the Company, the Company
formed a special committee of independent directors to review the
proposed transactions.  The special committee reviewed and
unanimously approved entering into the Sales Agreement, the
amendment to the Shared Services Agreement, the amendments to the
employment agreements of Mr. Consiglio and Mr. Arrix, and the
actions taken in connection therewith.

                      About Viscount Systems

Burnaby, Canada-based Viscount Systems, Inc., is a manufacturer,
developer and service provider of access control security
products.

The Company's bank credit facility was suspended on December 30,
2011 due to the bank's assessment of the Company's financial
position.  Management has determined that the Company will need to
raise a minimum of C$500,000 by way of new debt or equity
financing to continue normal operations for the next twelve
months.  Management has been actively seeking new investors and
developing customer relationships, however a financing arrangement
has not yet completed.  Short-term loan financing is anticipated
from related parties, however there is no certainty that loans
will be available when required.  These factors raise substantial
doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operations as a
going concern.

Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton LaBonte LLP expressed substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, citing
that the Company has an accumulated deficit of C$11.7 million for
the year ended Dec. 31, 2013.  The Company requires additional
funds to meet its obligations and the costs of its operations.

The Company reported a net loss of C$3.08 million on

VOYAGEUR ACADEMY: S&P Lowers Rating to 'B-'; Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its rating to 'B-' from
'B' and removed the rating from CreditWatch on Michigan Finance
Authority's series 2011 public school academy limited obligation
revenue bonds issued for Voyageur Academy.  The outlook is stable.

"The rating reflects our view that, despite a level of stability at
the school under new management and a slight improvement in
financial operations in fiscal 2014, we still believe there are
significant weaknesses that pressure the rating," said Standard &
Poor's credit analyst Ashley Ramchandani.  "These factors include
potential enrollment declines and the general uncertainty about
demand in Detroit, a lack of proven academic results, uncertainties
about the length of the charter renewal, and the use of a
forbearance agreement to draw down the debt service reserve this
year coupled with the possibility of additional draws in the future
that would require continual cooperation and support from
bondholders," added Ms. Ramchandani.

A new management company, American Promise Schools, was brought on
to replace The Leona Group LLC and officially started on July 1,
2014.  At that time, the authorizer, Ferris State University, also
issued a one-year contract of reauthorization, expiring June 2015,
that was conditional upon fulfillment of a Plan of Correction by
the Voyageur board.  The board has since fulfilled the items on the
Plan of Correction, and the school is currently working through the
renewal process with the authorizer.  The charter is expected to be
renewed, but S&P is currently uncertain of the length of the
renewal.

On Dec. 5, 2014, Voyageur Academy entered into a forbearance
agreement, whereby approximately $236,137 would be drawn from the
debt service reserve fund to pay the difference between the maximum
20% of state aid that is allowed to be used for debt service and
the total facilities cost, which includes debt service on the
series 2011 bonds and the elementary school lease.

from negative and affirmed its 'BB-' long-term rating on West
Branch Regional Medical Center, Mich.'s $8.945 million series 1999
mortgage revenue and refunding bonds.

"The outlook revision incorporates our view of West Branch's recent
improvement in operating losses, combined with stable unrestricted
reserves and our anticipation that reserves will continue to grow
along with operations, given management's anticipation of limited
capital expenditures and lack of debt plans," said Standard &

issued, or deemed issued, under the DIP LC Agreement, which cash
collateral will be subject to release upon the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in the DIP LC Agreement. The DIP LC Financing

WET SEAL: Has Interim Approval of $20MM DIP Loan From B. Riley
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Wet Seal, Inc., and its affiliated debtors, pursuant to an
order of the Bankruptcy Court dated Jan. 20, 2015, were authorized
to enter into and draw upon a senior secured, super-priority credit
facility on an interim basis, subject to the satisfaction of
customary conditions precedent thereto.

B. Riley Financial, Inc., serves as DIP Lender under the Senior
Secured, Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement,
dated as of Jan. 15, 2015.  The DIP Financing Agreement provides
for a senior secured, super-priority credit facility of up to $20.0
million on the closing date of the DIP Financing, and the
availability of which is reduced by an $5.0 million availability
block, which Availability Block is subject to reduction at the sole
discretion of the Lender. Loans under the DIP Financing will be
capped at the lesser of this commitment and a borrowing base (which
is subject to reserves) and prior to the later of the entry of a
final borrowing order by the Bankruptcy Court and approval of an
initial budget by the Lender, availability under the DIP Financing
will be limited to $1.0 million.

The parties have agreed to amend the maturity date and the terms of
the payment of the commitment fee under the DIP Financing
Agreement.

The Debtors anticipate using the proceeds of the DIP Financing
primarily for (i) purposes permitted by orders of the Bankruptcy
Court, including ongoing debtor-in-possession working capital
purposes, (ii) the payment of fees, costs and expenses, and (iii)
other general corporate purposes, in each case, only to the extent
permitted under applicable law, the DIP Financing Agreement, the
orders of the Bankruptcy Court, and in accordance with the approved
budget, and further subject to certain exceptions as set forth in
the DIP Financing Agreement.

The maturity date of the DIP Financing is the earlier of (a) Feb.
17, 2015, unless the final borrowing order will have been entered
by the Bankruptcy Court on or before such date, in which case such
maturity date shall mean May 15, 2015 unless otherwise extended by
the Lender in its discretion, and (b) the date on which B. Riley
Financial, Inc. terminates a Plan Sponsorship Agreement entered
into between the Debtors and the Plan Sponsor on Jan. 15, 2015.

Interest on the outstanding principal amount of loans under the DIP
Financing shall be payable monthly in arrears and on the maturity
date at a per annum rate equal to 10.25%.  The Debtors shall pay to
the Lender a commitment fee equal to (i) on the date which is the
earlier of (x) the first draw under the DIP Financing Agreement
after entry of a final borrowing order by the Bankruptcy Court
approving the DIP Financing and (y) entry of a final borrowing
order by the Bankruptcy Court approving debtor-in-possession
financing other than the DIP Financing or the DIP LC Financing
(provided that if neither event occurs, such fee shall not be
payable), (a) 2.50% multiplied by (b) an amount equal to the
remainder of $20.0 million minus the Availability Block then in
effect, and (ii) on any date on which the Lender reduces the
Availability Block, (a) 2.50% multiplied by (b) the amount of such
reduction.

Additionally, the parties agreed that in the event the Company
terminates the Plan Sponsorship Agreement and is obligated to pay a
break-up fee to the Plan Sponsor as required by the Plan
Sponsorship Agreement, such commitment fee may be credited against
the break-up fee payable to the Plan Sponsor.  Upon an event of
default, all obligations under the DIP Financing Agreement shall
bear interest at a rate equal to the then current rate plus an
additional 2% per annum.

Pursuant to the terms of the DIP Financing Agreement, the domestic
subsidiaries of the Company which are not borrowers under the DIP
Financing will guarantee the obligations of the borrowers under the
DIP Financing. Subject to certain exceptions, the DIP Financing
will be secured by a first priority perfected security interest in
substantially all of the assets of the Debtors, including control
over certain of the Debtors' deposit accounts. The security
interests and liens are subject only to certain carve outs and
permitted liens, as set forth in the DIP Financing Agreement.  The
DIP Financing is subject to certain covenants, including, without
limitation, related to the incurrence of additional debt, liens,
the making of restricted payments and the deposit of the Company's
cash into a blocked account if the Company's liquidity is below
$5.0 million, the Company's failure to comply with the approved
budget and certain bankruptcy related covenants, in each case as
set forth in the DIP Financing Agreement. The DIP Financing is
subject to certain prepayment events, including, without
limitation, upon the sale of certain assets, and certain events of
default, including, without limitation, payment defaults,
cross-defaults to other indebtedness, certain bankruptcy related
defaults and the failure of Edmond S. Thomas to continue to serve
as the chief executive officer of the Company, in each case as set
forth in the DIP Financing Agreement.

to the Sponsor a break-up fee in the amount of $1,000,000 plus the
Sponsor's reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses.  The Company
expressly acknowledges that the Break-Up Fee is an actual and
necessary cost and expense of preserving the estates under section
503 of the Bankruptcy Code and must therefore be allowed and paid
as an administrative expense in the Bankruptcy Case, and the PSA
Order shall so provide.

WET SEAL: Meeting to Form Creditors' Panel Set for Jan. 30
----------------------------------------------------------
Andy Vara, Acting United States Trustee for Region 3, will hold an
organizational meeting on Jan. 30, 2015, at 10:00 a.m. in the
bankruptcy case of The Wet Seal, Inc.

The meeting will be held at:

         The DoubleTree Hotel
         700 King St.
         Wilmington, DE 19801

The sole purpose of the meeting will be to form a committee or
committees of unsecured creditors in the Debtors' case.

The organizational meeting is not the meeting of creditors pursuant
to Section 341 of the Bankruptcy Code.  A representative of the
Debtor, however, may attend the Organizational Meeting, and provide
background information regarding the bankruptcy cases.

To increase participation in the Chapter 11 proceeding, Section
1102 of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the United States Trustee
appoint a committee of unsecured creditors as soon as practicable.
The Committee ordinarily consists of the persons, willing to serve,
that hold the seven largest unsecured claims against the debtor of
the kinds represented on the committee.  Section 1103 of the
Bankruptcy Code provides that the Committee may consult with the
debtor, investigate the debtor and its business operations and
participate in the formulation of a plan of reorganization.  The
Committee may also perform other services as are in the interests
of the unsecured creditors whom it represents.

WET SEAL: Securities to Be Delisted From Nasdaq
-----------------------------------------------
The Wet Seal, Inc., on January 16, 2015, received a notification
letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC indicating that in
accordance with Listing Rules 5101, 5110(b), and IM-5101-1, NASDAQ
had determined that the Company's securities will be delisted from
The Nasdaq Stock Market, and that, unless the Company appeals the
determination, trading of the Company's Class A common stock will
be suspended at the opening of business on January 27, 2015 and a
Form 25-NSE will be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission which will remove the Company's common stock from
listing and registration on The Nasdaq Stock Market.

NASDAQ's determination was based on (i) the Company's previously
disclosed Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing and the resulting public
interest concerns raised, (ii) concerns regarding the residual
equity interest of the existing listed securities holders and (iii)
concerns about the Company's ability to regain and maintain
compliance with all of requirements for continued listing on The
Nasdaq Stock Market.

The Company does not intend to appeal the delisting determination.

WILLISTON STATE COLLEGE: S&P Lowers 2010 Bonds Rating to 'BB'
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it lowered its
underlying rating (SPUR) three notches to 'BB' from 'BBB' on North
Dakota State Board of Higher Education's series 2010 taxable
housing and auxiliary facilities revenue bonds (recovery zone
economic development bonds [RZEDBs]), issued for Williston State
College (WSC).  The outlook is stable.

"The downgrade reflects our view of WSC's fiscal year-end 2014
(unaudited financials as of June 30) operating results for its
housing and auxiliary facilities system," said Standard & Poor's
credit analyst Shivani Singh, "with substantially weakened debt
service coverage (DSC)."  The weaker DSC was at 0.59x in fiscal
2014 relative to 1.17x coverage in fiscal 2013 (excluding the RZEDB
federal subsidy pledged to bondholders, which we exclude from our
calculations given their uncertain amounts and timing). The weak
operating performance of the housing and auxiliary facilities
system in fiscal 2014 is due to revenue decreases that were
substantially lower than management's projections.

Per the series 2010 general bond resolution, the college covenants
that pledged revenues will equal at least 1.15x the annual debt
service of the series 2010 bonds.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that over the next
year, debt service payments (principal and interest) on the series
2010 bonds will be made on time, no draws will be made on the debt
service reserve fund (DSRF) securing the bonds, and DSC (excluding
the RZEDB subsidy payment) will improve from fiscal 2014 levels,"
said Ms. Singh.  S&P also expects WSC's enrollment will remain
stable, and its financial operations will be balanced at least on a
cash basis. Our outlook does not factor in any additional debt and
S&P expects WSC's financial resource ratios to remain similar to
fiscal 2014 levels.

In S&P's view, a failure to make debt service payments (principal
and interest) on time, draws on the DSRF, coupled with a
deterioration in the DSC from fiscal 2014 levels, could lead S&P to
lower the rating.  A positive rating action is unlikely, in S&P's
view, without a material improvement in DSC (excluding the RZEDB
subsidy payment) to levels that exceed the 1.15x covenant.



XTREME POWER: New Owner of Grove Plant to Hire 423 Workers
----------------------------------------------------------
Grove Battery Manufacturing LLC will add 423 jobs at the Grove
Battery facility formerly owned by Xtreme Power Inc., as part of
the 10-year contract with the state's Quality Jobs Program, the
Oklahoma Department of Commerce said in a statement.

"We are taking over operations from the previous owner and reaching
out to their former employees.  They had excellent people, and we
will begin hiring this month on a permanent basis," D. Ray Tuttle
at The Associated Press quoted Grove Battery President Benny E. Jay
as saying.

According to the AP, Mr. Jay said, "We expect to announce
resumption of Grove Battery plant operations under new ownership
later this month."

The AP recalls that Xtreme Power was forced to close the plant in
November 2012 due to low demand.  According to The AP, Mr. Jay said
that bankruptcy talks took about six months, and during the last
half of 2014, Grove Battery officials started preparing the
facility, Jay said.

continue as a going concern.


[*] ABI Makes No Recommendations on Venue Statute
-------------------------------------------------
Kyle J. Ortiz, writing for Lexology.com, reports that the American
Bankruptcy Institute Commission, unable to reconcile their strong
and disparate views on the venue statute, did not provide any
recommendations regarding the topic.

Lexology.com quoted ABI Commission as saying, "Commissioners found
[venue] issues among some of the most difficult and divisive issues
considered during the Commission project," and as a consequence,
the Commissioners "were unable to reach a consensus regarding
whether reform of the venue statute was necessary or what potential
reform might best serve the diverse interests in chapter 11 cases."


The Commissioners, according to Lexology.com, deviated from the
standard format used throughout the Final Report and
Recommendations of the American Bankruptcy Institute Commission to
Study the Reform of Chapter 11, and, in lieu of issuing any reform
recommendations, chose to provide a summary of the competing
research and deliberations on the topic.

Lexology.com relates that the primary disagreement between the
Commissioners and in the literature they reviewed revolved around
the statute's permissiveness of venue choices based on (i) where
the debtor is incorporated and (ii) the "affiliate-filing rule"
(which permits a debtor to file a case in a jurisdiction where an
affiliate of the debtor has previously filed a pending Chapter 11),
and the common reliance by debtors on one of those two grounds for
jurisdiction to file cases in either the Southern District of New
York or the District of Delaware.

Critics of the venue statute most frequently want the elimination
of venue choices based on the place of incorporation and on the
affiliate-filing rule, Lexology.com says, citing the Report.
Lexology.com relates that the critics argue that under the current
statute that debtors often select venues that "bear no meaningful
relationship to the business, its operations, its financial
difficulties, or its stakeholders," and that filing a case
thousands of miles away from a debtor's "management, employees,
communities, and key constituencies, makes it difficult and
expensive for these parties to participate in or even follow the
Chapter 11 case."

According to Lexology.com, supporters of the venue statute say the
flexibility inherent in the current system allows debtors to choose
jurisdictions "that will facilitate the most effective and
value-maximizing reorganization."

Lexology states that according to the Report, the 84 Act divided
bankruptcy matters into (i) core matters that are central to the
bankruptcy and granted bankruptcy judges authority to enter final
orders with respect to core matters, and (ii) non-core matters and
limited -- absent consent -- bankruptcy judges' power over noncore
matters.


[*] Commercial Printers to Lead in No. of Bankruptcy Filings
------------------------------------------------------------
Mark R. Hahn, writing for Whattheythink.com, reports that
commercial printers will lead the pack in the number of bankruptcy
filings, although many of these will be Chapter 7 filings of small
companies that will simply be liquidated.  

Whattheythink.com relates that bankruptcy filings in 2014 dropped
20% to 43, from 54 in 2013.  The report says that the companies
that filed for bankruptcy were in general smaller and had less
impact than in past years.

According to Whattheythink.com, larger companies will have more
non-bankruptcy plant closures as they consolidate production and
retire older less efficient equipment and facilities.  The report
states that reported plant and company non-bankruptcy closures in
2014 rose 100% to 46, from 2013.  The report relates that some
companies closed up shop without going through the formal
bankruptcy court process.


[*] Covington, DLA Piper Attys Start Firms in Europe, Middle East
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Law360 reported that attorneys at Covington & Burling LLP and DLA
Piper have left the firms to launch their own boutiques in Belgium
and Kuwait, respectively, with the Brussels-based firm specializing
in competition and the Kuwait City office focusing on bank finance
and restructuring, capital markets, mergers and acquisitions,
project finance and dispute resolution.

According to the report, Covington's Brussels-based co-head of its
European Union litigation department, Damien Geradin, left the firm
on Jan. 9 and launched Edge: Legal Thinking, a small firm that will
provide legal services to corporations, law firms and institutions
in a variety of industries.  The report added that DLA Piper's
senior partners Bader A. El-Jeaan and Abdul Aziz Al-Yaqout departed
the firm on Dec. 31 to launch Meysan Partners.

                            *********

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.

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

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

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

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