BALL CORP: S&P Affirms 'BB+' CCR on Rexam Deal Completion
---------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has affirmed all of its ratings on
Broomfield, Colo.-based Ball Corp., including S&P's 'BB+' corporate
credit rating.  The outlook is negative.

At the same time, S&P lowered its corporate credit rating on Rexam
PLC and S&P's issue-level ratings on the company's senior unsecured
debt to 'BB+' from 'BBB-' to reflect the entity's status as a core
operating subsidiary of Ball.

S&P lowered its short-term rating on Rexam to 'B' from 'A-3'
because S&P now rates the company as speculative grade.  S&P also
withdrew its senior unsecured ratings on Rexam's credit facility,
as S&P expects that facility to be repaid.  S&P expects that
Rexam's unrated private placement notes will be paid off within the
next month, so S&P has not factored that debt into its recovery
analysis.

Additionally, S&P lowered its issue-level rating on Rexam's 6.75%
hybrid subordinated notes due 2067 by two notches to 'B+' from 'BB'
because of S&P's hybrid criteria.  The criteria indicates that S&P
should initially lower the rating on this debt by two notches from
S&P's corporate credit rating on the issuer for subordination
before applying an additional one-notch reduction for the
deferability of interest payments.  The notes' terms include a
change of control provision that increases the applicable interest
rate by 5%, so S&P anticipates that the company will elect to call
the notes soon.

"The affirmation reflects our belief that Ball will smoothly
integrate the $8.5 billion Rexam acquisition and achieve operating
and cost synergies that will allow it to maintain a funds from
operations (FFO)-to-debt ratio in the 12%-20% range," said S&P
Global credit analyst James Siahaan.

The negative outlook on Ball Corp. reflects the potential that S&P
could lower its ratings on the company if significant integration
issues pertaining to the Rexam acquisition, other operational
challenges, or financial policy decisions cause the company's
credit measures to unexpectedly weaken.

S&P could lower its ratings on Ball Corp. if management's financial
policies, integration-related challenges, or weakness in the
company's operating performance causes its FFO-to-debt ratio to
deteriorate to less than 12% during the 12-18 months following the
close of the proposed transaction with limited prospects for
improvement.

It is unlikely that S&P will upgrade Ball Corp. over the next year
in light of S&P's expectation that the company's credit measures
will be weak following the Rexam acquisition, along with the
potential that it may face integration-related challenges.  S&P
could revise its outlook on Ball to stable if a smooth integration,
solid production volumes, and continued progress toward realizing
acquisition synergies allows the company to consistently improve
its credit measures.  An upgrade would be predicated on S&P's view
that management's financial policies will be conservative enough to
warrant higher ratings, as demonstrated by consistently maintaining
a FFO-to-adjusted debt ratio of more than 20% and an adjusted
debt-to-EBITDA ratio of less than 4x.

CAMERON PARK PLAZA: Redding Bank Asks for Ch. 11 Trustee
--------------------------------------------------------
Redding Bank of Commerce moves for appointment of a Chapter 11
Trustee in the case of Cameron Park Plaza, LP.

The Debtor is the 85% owner of certain real property commonly
described as 1614, 1615 & 1620 Continental Street, 1003 & 1005 Yuba
Street, and 1002 & 1024 Placer Street, Redding, California.  Yuba
Street Properties, LLC, a California limited liability company is
the 15% co-owner of the Redding Real Property.  The Debtor rents a
portion of the Redding Real Property for use as commercial office
use. However, the majority of the rentable building area sits
vacant.

Redding Bank is a creditor of the Debtor, and the Bank and the
Debtor believe that the Bank has a perfected first priority
security interest in the Redding Real Property.

This bankruptcy was filed to stop the foreclosure by the Bank of
the Redding Real Property.

In its motion filed before the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of California, Redding Bank avers that cause
exists for the appointment of a Chapter 11 Trustee in the case:

   * Since the bankruptcy filing, the Debtor has failed to file any
monthly operating reports.

   * The Debtor has failed to file accurate schedules.
Specifically, at the Sec. 341(a) meeting of creditors, the Debtor's
representative and general partner, David Monetta, testified that
in addition to the scheduled $57,000 owed to Mr. Monetta by Debtor,
there is also approximately $30,000 not scheduled that is owed to
Mr. Monetta by Debtor for legal fees. Additionally, the Debtor
failed to schedule past due management fees of 2% of gross rents
due to its representative and general partner, David Monetta.  The
Debtor has failed to disclose on its Schedule D a junior priority
deed of trust encumbering the Redding Real Property in favor of
Bruce T. Conzelman 2006 Revocable Trust and the David and Lisa
Monetta 2006 Revocable Trust. The Debtor has failed to disclose
accurately the source of compensation to its bankruptcy counsel.

   * The Debtor failed to obtain authority from its partner, Yuba
Street, to file this bankruptcy case.

   * The Debtor has failed to designate its "Responsible
Individual" as mandated by Local Bankruptcy Rule 4002-1.

   * The Debtor has failed to seek court authority to employ its
management company, Management Consulting Group, Inc. This property
manager, which is not an equity partner and which has not been
employed under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 327, has been given signatory
authority over Debtor’s debtor-in-possession bank accounts.  In
addition, the Debtor has failed to seek court authority to employ
its real estate broker, Colliers International.

CELTIC CONCEPTS: Plan Proposes 20% Payment to Unsecured Creditors
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Celtic Concepts, Ltd., filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, a first amended plan
of reorganization and accompanying disclosure statement, which
propose a 20% payment to holders of Allowed General Unsecured

unsecured claim of First Bank on the Debtor's guaranty of the

on an unsecured line of credit, trade creditors of the Debtor,
Heartland Payment Systems, Inc., on its litigation claim, and the
personal injury claimant who has filed suit against the Debtor's
alcoholic beverage management company.

in equal monthly installments over a period of 120 months, with
interest at 4.0% per annum, with the first payment due on the

CHANGE HEALTHCARE: Moody's Affirms B2 CFR, Outlook Positive
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service revised the ratings outlook for Change
Healthcare Holdings, Inc. to positive from stable.  Moody's also
affirmed Change Healthcare's B2 Corporate Family Rating, B2-PD
Probability of Default Rating, Ba3 senior secured credit facility
rating, Caa1 unsecured notes rating and SGL-2 speculative grade
liquidity rating.

The revision of the outlook to positive follows Change Healthcare's
announcement that it has signed a definitive agreement to form a
new joint venture with McKesson's Technology Solutions business.
The combined entity is expected to have about $3.4 billion in
revenue and $6.1 billion in debt.  Moody's estimates that the JV's
leverage will be around 6.5 times at close and around 5.6 times if
management's $150 million in synergies are realized.

"While the new entity will be significantly larger and more diverse
in terms of product offering and customers, leverage will be high
at close," stated Moody's analyst Todd Robinson.  An upgrade at the
new entity is not certain and is contingent on Moody's comfort that
cost synergies and debt repayment from an IPO will sufficiently
deleverage the company and that integration can be done without
disruption to the business," continued Todd Robinson.

The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2017 and
is subject to customary closing conditions, including compliance
with the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act.

These ratings were affirmed:

  Corporate Family Rating, B2
  Probability of Default Rating, B2-PD
  $125 million senior secured revolving credit facility,
    Ba3 (LGD3)
  $1.8 billion senior secured term loan facility, Ba3 (LGD3)
  $625 million unsecured notes, Caa1 (LGD5)
  Speculative Grade Liquidity rating of SGL-2

                        RATINGS RATIONALE

The B2 Corporate Family Rating reflects Change Healthcare's high
leverage and the significant competition in the healthcare
technology industry.  Furthermore, the company has aggressive
financial policies with a history of debt funded acquisitions.
However, the rating is supported by Change Healthcare's high
recurring revenue base, its position as one of the leading
providers of revenue and payment cycle management services, high
product switching costs, and opportunities to cross-sell its
services.

The positive outlook reflects Moody's view that, should the newly
formed joint venture be consummated, Change Healthcare will be part
of an enterprise with a stronger overall credit profile than if
Change Healthcare remains a standalone company.  However, Moody's
expects that all of Change Healthcare's debt will be repaid upon
the close of the transaction in accordance with the company's
credit agreements.  As a result, Moody's anticipates that Change
Healthcare's ratings will be withdrawn at the close of the sale and
ratings will be assigned at the new entity.

While Change Healthcare remains a stand-alone issuer, the rating
could be upgraded if the company meaningfully grows revenue,
earnings and cash flow.  Specifically, Moody's would need to see
debt to EBITDA sustained below 4.5 times.

The rating could be downgraded if earnings and cash flow materially
deteriorate as a result of pricing pressures or declines in the
company's customer base.  Specifically, if the company's debt to
EBITDA is sustained above 6.5 times or EBITA to interest expense
declines below 1.5 times there would be downward rating pressure.
Furthermore, additional debt funded acquisitions that materially
weaken credit metrics would weigh on the rating.

Change Healthcare provides software and analytics, network
solutions and technology-enabled services that optimize
communications, payments and actionable insights designed to enable
smarter healthcare.  The company had revenue of $1.5 billion for
the twelve months ended March 31, 2016.  The company is owned by
Blackstone and Hellman & Friedman.

McKesson's Technology Solutions business provides IT solutions to
the healthcare industry designed to improve patient safety, reduce
the cost and variability of care, improve healthcare efficiency and
better manage revenue streams and resources.  Moody's estimates
that McKesson's Technology Solutions business had revenue of about
$1.8 billion in the twelve months ended March 31, 2016.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Service Industry published in December 2014.


CHRISTIAN FAMILY: Cash Use Barred; No Trustee Appointed

CHRISTIAN LAETTNER: Creditors Try to Force Basketball Star to Ch. 7
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Katy Stech, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reported that Duke
University basketball legend Christian Laettner faces bankruptcy
after several creditors collectively owed $14 million filed an
involuntary chapter 7 petition against him.

According to the report, the nature of Mr. Laettner's debts weren't
described in the eight-page petition filed July 5 in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in Durham, N.C.  A 2012 profile in The Wall Street
Journal noted that Mr. Laettner and his business partner in several
real estate deals faced civil lawsuits seeking repayment of loans
valued at about $30 million, including to sports celebrities such
as former Chicago Bull Scottie Pippen, who played with Mr. Laettner
on the 1992 Olympic men's basketball team, the report related.

In the article, Mr. Laettner's business partner and former
teammate, Brian Davis, blamed their financial troubles on
aggressive plans and the economic downturn, the report further
related.

Under bankruptcy-court rules, Mr. Laettner has 21 days to respond
to the involuntary petition, the report noted.

His lawyer, Hassan Zavareei, said the involuntary bankruptcy is
related to the West Village real estate development in Durham,
N.C., a downtown project that dwindled during the economic
recession, the report said.  The involuntary petition stems from
two creditors who are fighting to recover money from the project
and that Mr. Laettner plans to negotiate a deal that will lead the
chapter 7 filing to be dismissed, he said, the report added.


CHRISTOPHER NUSSBAUMER: Court OKs $882,000 Sale of Property
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Jean K. Fitzsimon entered an order authorizing Christopher J.
Nussbaumer to sell his real property located at 881 S. Five Points
Road, West Chester, PA, to Tracy Hu for $882,000.

The Order also provides that:

   * The Debtor and/or JWD Associates (14-17493-jkf) will make
payments to secured creditor TD Bank, N.A. in the amount of $7,000
per month due on the first of each month beginning Nov. 1, 2015 and
continuing through the time which all accounts due and owing to TD
Bank, N.A. by Debtor, his wife, Wescho Company, Inc., and/or JWD
Associates are paid in full by (1) the Debtor and/or JWD Associates
or (2) a Chapter 11 Plan is confirmed by this Court in the JWD
Associates matter; whichever is later;

   * This sale is specifically contingent upon TD Bank, N.A.
receiving proceeds from the sale in an amount equal to or greater
than $815,000 in readily available funds at closing with closing to
occur no later than Aug. 1, 2016;

   * The court appointed broker, Edward Ritti of Prudential Fox and
Roach Realtors, will receive his 6% commission at settlement and
may share his commission with any cooperating broker;

   * Any other usual and ordinary adjustments and payments
associated with the real estate closing will be paid at
settlement;

   * The Debtor and/or JWD Associates agree to file a Plan on or
before Nov. 1, 2016, which Plan will pay all outstanding amounts
due to TD Bank, N.A., and which Plan must include a term not to
exceed seven years;

   * Failure to timely file the Plan will allow TD Bank, N.A. or
any party in interest to file a motion to dismiss Nussbaumer Case
No. 15-15926-JKF and/or JWD Associates Case No. 14-17493-JKF for
failure to comply with this Court's Order;

   * Upon filing of the Plan(s), TD Bank, N.A. will reserve all
rights to review and object to said Plan(s) at its discretion;

  * The Order will be docketed in and applied to both this
proceeding and the JWD Associates (14-17493-JKF) proceeding and,
notwithstanding a dismissal of either bankruptcy case, the Court
will retain jurisdiction to enforce the terms of the Order against,
inter alia, Debtor and/or JWD Associates;

  * If the Debtor or JWD Associates fail to make the monthly
payments, TD Bank, N.A. may immediately move for dismissal of
either or both proceedings;

   * If the Debtor's real property located at 881 S. Five Points
Road, West Chester, PA 19382 is not sold on or before Aug. 1, 2016,
TD Bank, N.A. shall be entitled to immediate stay relief as to 881
S. Five Points Road, West Chester, PA 19382 and, in that event,
that Debtor agrees not to oppose such relief;

   * Following the sale of the property, Debtor and JWD Associates
agree to immediately pursue all available financing opportunities
to attempt to finance the balance owed to TD Bank, N.A.

The Debtor and his non-debtor spouse entered into a Loan Agreement
with TD Bank, N.A. ("Bank") on June 29, 2007, to which the Bank
extended to them a commercial loan in the original principal amount
of $1,200,000.  Although all monthly payments were made under the
terms of the loan, when the balloon payment came due, the Debtor
was unable to refinance or otherwise pay the outstanding balance.

On Oct. 28, 2015, the Court entered an order approving the Debtor's
sale of the Five Points Road Property, free and clear of all liens,
to Blanca Investment Properties, LP, for $1,275,000, the payment of
all ordinary closing costs, the payment of $7,000/month to the Bank
beginning Nov. 1, 2015 and the payment of all net proceeds to the
Bank.  The sale was terminated by Blanca Investments on March 28,
2016, because neither the Buyer nor the Bank would compromise
regarding their respective terms, and the Debtor was unable to
salvage the agreement.

The Debtor said that although the purchase price is significantly
lower than the Blanca Properties agreement, the Hu offer
significantly reduces the time to closing due to its lack of
contingencies.  According to the Debtor, the Bank rejected Hu's
offer as well as the other three sale agreements proposed by the
Debtor since May 2014.

CONSTRUCTION LIQUIDATION: Unsecureds to Get 25% Under Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Construction Liquidation Inc., f/k/a NYC Constructors Inc., and
MRP, L.L.C., filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of New York a joint plan of liquidation and accompanying
disclosure statement, which propose approximately 25% recovery to
holders of Class 3 - General Unsecured Claims, other than the
holders of the Davis-Related Unsecured Claims, which will receive
an approximate distribution of 20%.

Larry Davis and DCM Erectors, Inc., which previously owned MRP,
hold the largest unsecured claims against the Debtors' bankruptcy
estates.  These Claims total approximately $6,136,000, which claims
represent approximately 73% of the total amount of Unsecured Claims
asserted against the Estates.  After some arms-length negotiations
Davis agreed that $100,000 of Distributions allocable to the
Davis-Related Unsecured Claims would be made available to the other
Class 3 Unsecured Claimholders.

Substantially all of the Debtors' assets have already been
liquidated and converted to cash and the Debtors have ceased
operating their business.  The Plan provides for the liquidation of
all of the remaining property of the Debtors' estates.  Proceeds
from the sale and liquidation will be used to pay creditors.  Aside
from a credit bid, the Debtors received cash in the amount of
$2,000,000 from the sale of the Debtors' assets, which is available
to distribute to Creditors in the order of priority under the
Bankruptcy Code.  The Debtors believe that the Excluded Assets have
little or no value.  The Debtors also currently have additional
cash on hand of $284,000, which is earmarked to pay professional
fees and fees due to the United States Trustee.

COSTAS KONDYLIS: No Rival Bids vs. Randall's $2.5MM Offer
---------------------------------------------------------
Judge Sean H. Lane entered an order authorizing the sale of Costas
Kondylis' property located at 416 N. Main Street, Southampton, New
York, for $2,500,000 to Randall Funding, LLC.

An auction was conducted on June 1, 2016, and that the Debtor
determined at the auction that no higher or better offers were made
than the $2,500,000 offer made by Randall.

The $50,000 of the $2,500,000 purchase price will be paid by
Randall in cash, at the Closing, toward administrative expenses of
the Debtor's Chapter 11 case.  Such $50,000 cash payment will be
held by Debtor's counsel in its trust account pending further order
of this Court.  In addition at the closing, Randall will pay
$25,000 to Douglas Elliman in full satisfaction of its brokerage
commission and/or disbursements related to marketing the Property.

The Debtor's property is approximately 6,000 square feet, is
improved by a house known by the address 416 N. Main Street,
Southampton, New York, and is located in a desirable area in
Southampton, approximately 2 miles from the Atlantic Ocean and
close to town in Southampton.  In its schedules, the Debtor listed
the Property as having a fair market value of $3,700,000.

As of the Petition Date, and at present, there are liens on the
Property as follows:

   (a) a first mortgage recorded against the Property, held by M&T
Bank (the "First Mortgage").  M&T Bank filed a proof of claim based
on the First Mortgage asserting a secured claim against the
Property in the amount of $981,674;

   (b) a second mortgage recorded against the Property, held by M&T
Bank (the "Second Mortgage").  According to the Debtor's Schedules,
as of the Petition Date, the debt on the Second Mortgage is
unliquidated and the outstanding balance on the Second Mortgage was
$738,792;

   (c) a judgment lien presently held by Randall, obtained by
assignment from NY Commercial Bank. Prior to the Petition Date, NY
Commercial Bank obtained a judgment against the Debtor in the
amount of $1,480,998 (the "Judgment") based on Debtor's personal
guarantee of a business debt.  The Judgment was assigned to Randall
in October 2015. Randall filed a proof of claim (the "Randall
Claim") based on the Judgment, asserting a secured claim in the
amount of $1,738,448; and

   (d) a New York State tax warrant in the amount of $94,672 as of
the Petition Date, relating to income tax owed by the Debtor.  The
NYS Department of Taxation and Finance filed a proof of claim
against the Debtor (Claim No. 1-1).

A Letter of Intent was delivered by Randall to the Debtor on March
29, 2016 for a purchase price of $2,500,00 to be paid as follows:
$50,000 cash payable at the Closing and the balance of the purchase
price by taking the Property subject to the existing First
Mortgage, Second Mortgage, and NYS Tax Lien, provided that the
aggregate of the said liens will not exceed $2,000,000, and with
Randall making a minimum credit bid of $450,000 and having the
right to credit bid up to the amount of the Judgment.

                       About Costas Kondylis

Costas Kondylis sought Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. Case No. 15-11831) on July 13, 2015.  Kondylis is an
individual debtor who is continuing in the operation of his
business and management of his property as debtor in possession.

The Debtor's assets primarily consist of his fee ownership of the
property known by the address 416 N. Main Street, Southampton, New
York 11968.

The Debtor filed this Chapter 11 case in order to avoid a sheriff's
sale of the Property. Prior to the Petition Date, New York
Commercial Bank had obtained a large judgment against the Debtor
based upon the Debtor's guarantee of certain business debt. The
judgment was recorded in Suffolk County thereby becoming a judicial
lien on the Property.  The judicial lien was junior to a
traditional first mortgage held by M&T Bank, a home equity loan
held by M&T Bank, and a tax warrant filed by New York State.

On March 25, 2016, the Court entered an order approving the
Debtor's retention of Douglas Elliman as Debtor's real estate
broker.  Since the Petition Date, Douglas Elliman has been actively
marketing the Property.


DIOCESE OF DULUTH: Sues Insurers, Seeking Coverage of Abuse Claims
------------------------------------------------------------------
Tom Olsen, writing for Duluth News Tribune, reported that the
Diocese of Duluth has filed a federal lawsuit against five
insurance companies, seeking to force their participation in
settlement discussions.

According to the report, the diocese, which filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy in December in the wake of a $4.9 million verdict in a
child sexual abuse case, filed the suit on June 24.  Mediation
between the diocese and representatives of the 125 people who filed
abuse claims in the bankruptcy process is set to begin July 19, the
report related.

"The action was commenced as a precautionary measure to ensure that
all appropriate parties would participate in the mediation
process," diocese spokesman Kyle Eller told the News Tribune. "The
mediator now has authority to compel participation in the mediation
process if necessary."

The suit names as defendants the Liberty Mutual Group, Catholic
Mutual Relief Society of America, Fireman's Fund Insurance Co.,
Church Mutual Insurance Co. and Continental Insurance Co., the
report further related.

The lawsuit alleges that the companies have breached their
contracts with the diocese because they have "failed to acknowledge
their full coverage obligations" to cover any judgments or other
legal expenses stemming from the abuse claims, the report said.

"As a direct and proximate result of the insurers' breaches of
their respective policies, the diocese has been deprived of the
benefit of insurance coverage for which substantial amounts of
money were paid with respect to the underlying actions and claims,"
the report added, citing the suit.

EARTHLINK HOLDINGS: S&P Assigns 'B+' Rating on $125MM Facility
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'B+' issue-level rating and '2'
recovery rating to Atlanta-based telecommunications services
EarthLink Holdings Corp.'s $125 million senior secured revolving
credit facility and $50 million delayed draw term loan due 2021.
The amended and extended revolver replaces the company's existing
$135 million revolver due May 2017.  The '2' recovery rating
indicates S&P's expectation for substantial recovery (70%-90%;
lower half of the range) recovery in the event of a payment
default.

S&P expects the company will use net proceeds from the term loan
along with $40 million cash on the balance sheet and approximately
$5 million of revolver borrowings to repay a portion of its
existing 8.875% senior unsecured notes due 2019.

The credit facility contains a maximum 3.5x net leverage covenant
and a 2.5x minimum interest coverage ratio.  S&P expects the
company to maintain more than 15% of EBITDA cushion under both
these covenants over the next 12 months.

There is no change to S&P's 'B' corporate credit rating and stable
rating outlook on EarthLink despite S&P's expectation for modestly
lower leverage in the mid-2x area, compared to S&P's previous
forecast for leverage in the high-2x area in 2016 as a result of
the reduction in senior unsecured notes.

ENERGY TRANSFER: S&P Affirms 'BB' CCR, Off CreditWatch
------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB' corporate credit rating and
other ratings on U.S. midstream energy master limited partnership
(MLP) Energy Transfer Equity L.P. (ETE) and removed them from
CreditWatch with negative implications.  The outlook is stable. The
'4' recovery rating on the senior secured debt is unchanged and
indicates expectation for average recovery (30%-50%; upper end of
the range) if a default occurs.

The rating action reflects S&P's expectation that ETE's stand-alone
financial leverage will be in line with S&P's pre-merger estimates.
S&P believes ETE's stand-alone debt to EBITDA (defined as
distributions from its subsidiaries minus general and
administrative expenses) to be in the 3.5x to 3.75x range for 2016
and EBITDA interest coverage to be about 5.5x.  S&P's projections
assume that distributions to ETE are somewhat lower than S&P's
previous forecast, mainly due to incentive distribution right (IDR)
subsidies for ETP that benefit the partnership's distribution
coverage ratio and will support the credit profile. S&P also
expects ETE to maintain more robust distribution coverage ratios in
the 1.3x to 1.4x area through 2018.

S&P's assessment of ETE's cash flow diversity is positive, because
in S&P's view, it do not consider the default characteristics of
the underlying MLPs and the Lake Charles LNG regasification
facility in Louisiana to be highly correlated.  ETE's assets solely
consist of its general partner and limited partner interests in
ETP, Sunoco Logistics, Sunoco, and Lake Charles.

S&P's assessment of cash flow interruption risk as neutral reflects
the relative stability of the underlying cash flows at ETP, Sunoco
Logistics, Sunoco L.P., and Lake Charles, as well as S&P's
expectation that ETE will maintain ample distribution coverage
through 2018.  S&P expects about 80% of consolidated cash flows to
come from fee-based operations, which will continue to provide some
predictability of upstream distributions to ETE. Somewhat
countering this, a significant portion of ETE's cash flows relate
to incentive distribution rights, which would fall at a
disproportionate rate if the underlying MLPs were to cut their
distribution rates.

"The stable rating outlook on ETE reflects our expectation for
relative stability in the distribution payments it receives from
its ownership interests in its operating subsidiaries such that
stand-alone debt to EBITDA will remain below 4x," said S&P Global
Ratings credit analyst Michael Grande.



ENERGY XXI: Disclosure Statement Hearing Continued to July 13
-------------------------------------------------------------
The hearing regarding the disclosure statement explaining Energy
XXI, Ltd., et al.'s Plan of Reorganization is continued to July 13,

ESP RESOURCES: Exclusive Plan Filing Period Extended to Oct. 6
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. David R. Jones of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Texas has extended, at the behest of ESP

by generating positive income and cash flow.  The Debtors continue
to increase sales and has several significant leads which could
materialize into long term income producing projects.  The Debtors
are also seeking to obtain exit financing as part of a plan.
Culmination of increased sales and potential exit financing should
provide the Debtors with sufficient income to fund a plan.

FERRO CORP: Moody's Retains 'Ba3' Corporate Family Rating
---------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service lowered Ferro Corporation's Speculative
Grade Liquidity (SGL) Rating to SGL-3 from SGL-2 due to increased
reliance on its revolving facility to support its acquisitive
growth strategy, partial pay down of its term loan, and potential
increase in precious metals leases in a rising price environment.
The company's existing ratings, including the Ba3 Corporate Family
Rating, Ba3-PD Probability of Default Rating, and Ba3 rating on its
term loan and revolver are unchanged.  The outlook remains stable.

Issuer: Ferro Corporation

  Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, Lowered to SGL-3 from SGL-2

                         RATINGS RATIONALE

Ferro's Ba3 CFR reflects the company's strong core business, good
interest coverage, improved EBITDA margins, and solid cash flow
metrics resulting from its restructuring programs and accretive
acquisitions.  Factors supporting the Ba3 rating include the
mid-2014 favorable debt refinancing and related long-term interest
expense savings, reduced usage of precious metals lease lines, as
well as successful cost reduction efforts through both business
realignment and improving efficiencies in operations and corporate
functions.  Moody's expectation for continued success in
integrating acquired businesses and implementing efficiency
initiatives are also factored into the rating.

Strategic divestitures, largely completed by 2015, have reduced
Ferro's business size and diversity, but the remaining core
businesses provide higher margins and better earnings stability.
Additionally, Ferro's strategy of growth through small-to-medium
sized acquisitions and joint ventures is being executed with
reasonable transaction multiples, accretive deals, although funding
has been a significant use of the revolver, which has tightened
external liquidity.  Current leverage of 4.3x Debt/EBITDA is high
for the rating, but does not include pro forma EBITDA from
businesses acquired over the past year, which Moody's estimates
will bring leverage closer to 3.5x by year end 2016. While Ferro is
the market leader in a fragmented global market segment it is
growing at roughly GDP and because of its relatively small size and
margins in the low-teens, Moody's expects Ferro to achieve strong
credit metrics for the rating category that include 3.5x
Debt/EBITDA and over 15% Retained Cash Flow/Debt (RCF/Debt). (All
ratios include Moody's Standard Adjustments.).

Ferro faces heightened event risk following a May 2016 Board of
Directors announcement that it is exploring possible strategic
alternatives.  Earlier in 2016, the company received pressure from
FrontFour Capital Group LLC urging it to pursue strategic options
in order to unlock shareholder value.  While the possibility of an
acquisition is uncertain, a potential sale of the company would
likely trigger a change of control and Ferro's revolver and term
loan would be repaid.

Ferro's Speculative Grade Liquidity of SGL-3 reflects an adequate
liquidity profile supported by positive cash generation and a cash
balance of $56 million as of March 31, 2016, some of which resides
overseas.  The company has generated over $60 million in retained
cash flow for the LTM ending March 31, 2016 and has realized
roughly $20 million in free cash flow over the same period.
However, Ferro's financial flexibility has decreased following a
meaningful use of its revolver to support recent acquisitions and
to repay term debt.

Ferro's secondary liquidity is provided by a $300 million revolver
that had borrowings of roughly $248 million as of March 31, 2016,
with $48 million of availability remaining.  The revolver was drawn
to partially fund acquisitions of Nubiola and Al Salomi in the
third and fourth quarters of 2015, pay down $50 million of term
loan, as well as fund some share repurchases under its 10b5-1
program.  Moody's expects Ferro to use cash generated over 2016 to
reduce revolver borrowings by $20 -- $30 million.  The five-year
revolver is due in July 2019; Ferro can request an increase of $100
million under the facility.  Additionally, Ferro enters into short
term leases for precious metals of 30-90 days; Moody's views these
lease programs as reducing the company's liquidity, similar to
accounts receivable programs, especially given their short term
nature.  As of March 31, 2016, these leases amounted to
$23.5 million down from $30 million in 2015.

Ferro has no near-term maturities and no other material debt. Ferro
prepaid $50 million of its $300 million seven-year term loan B in
January 2015, thus has $245.5 million in principal remaining on the
term loan.  The term loan due in July 2021 amortizes at a rate of
1%, payable quarterly.  The company has a $22 million EBITDA
cushion on the revolving credit facilities max leverage ratio of
3.75x (3.23x test at the end of the first quarter 2016) and a
sizable cushion on its interest coverage test ratio of 3.0x.
Moody's' anticipates that Ferro will remain comfortably in
compliance with its covenants through 2016.

Uses of cash are anticipated in the form of capital expenditures
estimated to be $30-40 million in 2016 and an additional $6 million
in pension contributions for the fiscal year 2016.  The company
does not distribute dividends.  Ferro management has stated that it
will continue to seek small- to medium-sized acquisitions or
joint-venture investment opportunities and has indicated that it
would spend an average of $100 million annually on such growth
opportunities.  However, given the limited availability under the
revolver management has limited ability to pursue further
acquisitions, especially as it generates most of its free cash flow
in the second half of the 2016.  Thus, Moody's does not expect
acquisitions much above $10 or $20 million in 2016
  - unless funded by incremental debt.

Ferro's outlook is stable as a result of the expected improvement
in financial performance in 2016, which is offset by higher event
risk and tighter liquidity.  The outlook incorporates the
additional earnings from recent acquisitions that will support
EBITDA gains over 2016 as well as the temporarily tighter liquidity
resulting from the revolver borrowings used to support those
transactions.  There is limited upside to the rating at this time
because of Ferro's size, elevated event risk, and need to integrate
recent acquisitions.  However, if revenues expand, Debt/EBITDA
falls sustainably below 3.0x, EBITDA margins reach the mid-teens,
and if 20% RCF/Debt is sustainably realized, Moody's would
contemplate a higher rating.  Conversely, Moody's expects the
credit metrics to be strong for the rating category, such that the
rating could come under pressure if Ferro does not approach
Debt/EBITDA of 3.5x and RCF/Debt over 15% in 2016.  Additionally,
Moody's could contemplate negative rating actions if a sizable
acquisition or other unanticipated event were to increase leverage
over 4.0x.

Corporate Profile

Ferro Corporation headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, is a global
producer of specialty materials including glass-based coatings,
enamels, pigments, and polishing materials for use in industries
ranging from construction to automotive to telecommunications.
Ferro operates through three business segments; Performance

Oxides which contribute 50%, 35%, and 15% to revenues,
respectively.  Revenues were $1.1 billion for the LTM ended March
31, 2016.

The principal methodology used in this rating/analysis was Global
Chemical Industry Rating Methodology published in December 2013.

A full-text copy of the Amended Disclosure Statement is available

protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Middle
District of Tennessee (Case Nos. 15-3468 and 15-3469) on May 20,

On September 9, 2015, the court ordered the joint administration of

HORSEHEAD HOLDINGS: Creditors, Shareholders Spar Over Valuation
---------------------------------------------------------------
Len Boselovic, writing for Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, reported that
shareholders of Horsehead Holding, who stand to recover nothing
under a creditor-proposed reorganization plan, say the bankrupt
zinc producer's assets are worth about $500 million more than the
creditors say they are.

According to the report, if their estimate is accurate, they would
be able to recoup part of their investment -- something that does
not happen in most bankruptcies.

A court-appointed committee representing shareholders alleges that
the creditor group leading the reorganization of Robinson-based
Horsehead is deliberately underestimating the value of the company
in order to take control at a bargain price, the report related.
Since the Petition Date, the creditor group leading the
reorganization said the company's value has deteriorated to between
$255 million to $305 million, the report further related.  Under
their plan, they would exchange their debt for controlling interest
in the stock of the reorganized company, the report noted.
Existing Horsehead shareholders would get nothing, the report
said.

In a court filing, the shareholder group valued the company at $770
million to $850 million, the report related.  The valuation is
based on the shareholder committee's talks with potential buyers
and reflects the fact that zinc prices have rebounded in recent
months, the report said.

The shareholder group wants U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Christopher
Sontchi, who is overseeing the reorganization, to order the
creditor group to put Horsehead's assets up for sale to determine
what interested parties would pay, the report further related.

If the creditor group refuses to do that, shareholders want the
judge to allow them to file a reorganization plan of their own, the
report added.

HOSTESS BRANDS: To Sell Majority Stake for $725-Mil.
----------------------------------------------------
Michael J. de la Merced, writing for The New York Times' DealBook,
reported that Twinkies and Ho Hos are poised to find a new
corporate home -- and a listing on public stock markets after the
owners of Hostess Brands announced they had agreed to sell a
majority stake in the company to a publicly traded affiliate of the
Gores Group, an investment firm, for about $725 million.

According to the report, the transaction will be the second in
which Hostess -- a company born in 1919 with the Hostess CupCake
and made famous with the seemingly indestructible Twinkie -- has
traded hands since emerging from bankruptcy protection three years
ago.

It also raises the stakes for Hostess, joining the public markets
at a time when more consumers are shunning sweets in favor of more
nutritious treats, the report related.

Since 2013, Hostess has been under the ownership of the investment
firm Apollo Global Management and Metropoulos & Company, which
previously owned the maker of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer and
specializes in reviving consumer brands, the report further
related.

The Gores Group, a private equity firm based in Los Angeles, is
known for deals in an array of industries, the report said.  In
this case, the purchaser is Gores Holdings, a publicly traded arm
of the Gores Group known as a blank-check company, having raised
$375 million in an initial public offering last year to finance
acquisitions, the report added.

Under the terms of the deal, Gores Holdings will pay out not only
most of the $375 million that it raised in its I.P.O. last year,
but also an additional $350 million that it raised from other
investors, the report related.  That includes $50 million of the
additional capital that will essentially come from Metropoulos's
rolling over some of its existing holdings in Hostess, the report
further related.

                       About Hostess Brands

Founded in 1930, Irving, Texas-based Hostess Brands Inc., is known
for iconic brands such as Butternut, Ding Dongs, Dolly Madison,
Drake's, Home Pride, Ho Hos, Hostess, Merita, Nature's Pride,
Twinkies and Wonder.  Hostess has 36 bakeries, 565 distribution
centers and 570 outlets in 49 states.

Hostess filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection early morning
on Jan. 11, 2011 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case Nos. 12-22051 through
12-22056) in White Plains, New York.  Hostess Brands disclosed
assets of $982 million and liabilities of $1.43 billion as of the
Chapter 11 filing.

The bankruptcy filing was made two years after predecessors
Interstate Bakeries Corp. and its affiliates emerged from
bankruptcy (Bankr. W.D. Mo. Case No. 04-45814).

In the new Chapter 11 case, Hostess has hired Jones Day as
bankruptcy counsel; Stinson Morrison Hecker LLP as general
corporate counsel and conflicts counsel; Perella Weinberg Partners
LP as investment bankers, FTI Consulting, Inc. to provide an
interim treasurer and additional personnel for the Debtors, and
Kurtzman Carson Consultants LLC as administrative agent.

Matthew Feldman, Esq., at Willkie Farr & Gallagher, and Harry
Wilson, the head of turnaround and restructuring firm MAEVA
Advisors, are representing the Teamsters union.

Attorneys for The Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain
Millers International Union and Bakery & Confectionery Union &
Industry International Pension Fund are Jeffrey R. Freund, Esq.,
at Bredhoff & Kaiser, P.L.L.C.; and Ancela R. Nastasi, Esq., David
A. Rosenzweig, Esq., and Camisha L. Simmons, Esq., at Fulbright &
Jaworski L.L.P.

The official committee of unsecured creditors selected New York
law firm Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP as its counsel. Tom
Mayer and Ken Eckstein head the legal team for the committee.

Hostess Brands in mid-November 2012 opted to pursue the orderly
wind down of its business and sale of its assets after the Bakery,
Confectionery, Tobacco and Grain Millers Union (BCTGM) commenced a
nationwide strike.  The Debtor failed to reach an agreement with
BCTGM on contract changes.

Hostess Brands sold its businesses and most of the plants to five
different buyers for an aggregate of $860 million.  Hostess still
has some plants, depots and other facilities the buyers didn't
acquire.

The bankruptcy estate has changed its name to Old HB Inc.


INTELLIGRATED INC: S&P Puts 'B' CCR on CreditWatch Positive
-----------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has placed its 'B' corporate credit
rating on Intelligrated Inc. on CreditWatch with positive
implications.  S&P did not place its issue-level ratings on the
company's debt on CreditWatch because S&P expects that the lenders
will be paid in full due to the change-of-control provisions in
their credit agreements.

"The CreditWatch positive placement follows Ohio-based
Intelligrated Inc.'s announcement that it has agreed to be acquired
by N.J.-based Honeywell International Inc. for approximately $1.5
billion in cash," said S&P Global credit analyst Steven Mcdonald.
Under the proposed transaction, which S&P expects will close by the
end of the third quarter, Intelligrated will become part of
financially stronger Honeywell International's Automation and
Control Solutions segment.  S&P expects that all of Intelligrated's
outstanding rated debt instruments will be redeemed as part of the
transaction.  The transaction is subject to customary closing
conditions, including regulatory approval.

S&P will resolve the CreditWatch placement when the transaction
closes.  S&P expects to withdraw its issue-level ratings on the
company at that stage.  Additionally, S&P will likely raise its
ratings on Intelligrated Inc. to reflect that its credit quality
will be aligned with Honeywell International's.

                    About Interpark Investors

Interpark Investors, LLC, sought protection under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. N.D. Ill., Case No. 16-04404) on Feb. 12,
2016.  The case is assigned to Judge Carol A. Doyle.  The Debtor's
counsel is Peter J. Roberts, Esq., at Shaw Fishman Glantz & Towbin
LLC, in Chicago, Illinois.  The petition was signed by John J.
Fitzmaurice, manager of Interpark Manager, LLC, the Debtor's
manager.

Interpark Investors, LLC, is an Illinois limited liability company
that owns and operates two real estate parcels commonly known as
(i) 8601-8623 West Bryn Mawr Avenue, Chicago, IL, and (ii)
8600-8622 West Catalpa Avenue, Chicago, IL.

Though the Company acquired the Properties as a single Class B
multitenant office development consisting of 12 single-story
buildings and known as Interpark Corporate Center, the Company has
since divided the two Properties into two separate projects.

The Company continues to operate the Catalpa Property, which is the
southern parcel, as an office park with several commercial tenants.
However, prior to the Petition Date, the Company terminated the
office rental operations at the Bryn Mawr Property, which is the
northern parcel, and slated it for demolition and redevelopment as
a seven-story, 394-unit residential apartment complex with 9,500
square feet of retail space.

Shortly before the Petition Date, the Company engaged CBRE, Inc.,
to sell the Bryn Mawr Property.  The Company intends to use the
proceeds generated from the sale of the Bryn Mawr Property to pay
down secured debt.  The Company intends to retain the Catalpa
Property.

Based on the most recent appraisal conducted on the Properties,
plus recent broker opinions of value, the Debtor asserts that the
collective value of the Properties exceeds $23 million. CBRE has
estimated that the value of the Bryn Mawr Property alone exceeds
$17 million.


JB POINDEXTER: Moody's Affirms B1 CFR, Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed J.B. Poindexter & Co., Inc.'s
Corporate Family and Probability of Default ratings at B1 and
B1-PD, respectively.  Concurrently, Moody's affirmed the B2 to the
company's $225 million senior unsecured notes.  The SLG-2
Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating was withdrawn as J.B. Poindexter
does not publicly report financial statements.  The rating outlook
is stable.

These ratings were affirmed:

  B1, Corporate Family Rating;
  B1-PD, Probability of Default Rating;
  B2 (LGD4) on the $225 million senior unsecured notes due 2022.

The rating outlook remains stable.

This rating was withdrawn:

  SGL-2, Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating.

                         RATINGS RATIONALE

J.B. Poindexter's B1 Corporate Family Rating reflects its moderate
size, high customer concentrations, exposure to cyclical
transportation and energy end markets, the lumpiness of fleet truck
orders, and ongoing risks associated with the company's acquisitive
financial philosophy.  Although credit metrics have softened, the
company's debt to EBITDA, in the mid-3 times, is expected to remain
supportive of the assigned rating.  Recent contract wins are
helping to offset continued weakness in the company's energy
related markets and operational difficulties in the Special Vehicle
Group (SVG) segment.  The October 2015 Reading Truck Body
acquisition has helped offset start-up costs related to new
business in the Morgan Olsen segment.  The rating is supported
additionally by J.B. Poindexter's national footprint and strong
market positions.

The stable outlook reflects our expectations for J.B. Poindexter to
maintain its credit metrics while the company integrates the recent
acquisition of Reading Truck Body.

J.B. Poindexter is anticipated to have an adequate liquidity
profile over the near-term supported by cash balances and modest
free cash flow generation.  As of March 31, 2016, the company had
$28.8 million of cash.  Moody's expects positive free cash flow in
2016 to be in the low-mid single digits (as a percentage of debt)
supported by the recent acquisition and somewhat offset by cash
needs to support new business wins.  Weighing on the company's
liquidity profile is the pending Aug. 31, maturity of the
$25 million asset-based revolving credit facility, and we expect
the finalization of an extended or new facility directly.  However,
the company has historically not drawn on its revolver.  Financial
covenants are anticipated to remain unchanged, which include a
minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a net worth covenant for
which the company was in compliance with on March 31, 2016.
Moody's anticipates that covenant levels will be set with adequate
cushion under the new agreement.

Upward rating momentum is limited at present.  However, Moody's
could upgrade the ratings if the company achieves stronger credit
measures through a combination of permanent debt reduction and
improvements to the business.  Specifically, we would expect
leverage sustained below 3 times, interest coverage above 3 times,
and a good liquidity position.

The ratings could be downgraded if Moody's believes leverage will
be sustained above 4.5 times, interest coverage sustained below 2
times, or if the company experiences a substantial deterioration in
its liquidity position.  Pursuit of a leveraging transaction or
adoption of more aggressive financial policies, including owner
distributions or expectations for sustained negative free cash flow
due to expansionary capital spending, could also have negative
rating implications.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global
Automotive Supplier Industry published in June 2016.

J.B. Poindexter & Co., Inc., manufactures commercial truck bodies
for medium-duty trucks, pickup truck caps and tonneau covers, truck
bodies for walk-in step vans, service utility trucks, funeral
coaches and limousines, and provides contract manufacturing
services for precision metal parts and machining and casting
services.  Headquartered in Houston, Texas, the company generated
$1 billion in revenues for the twelve months ended March 31, 2016.
The company is privately held.

LOUISIANA CRANE: Hires Darnall Sikes as Accountant
--------------------------------------------------
Louisiana Crane & Construction, LLC, asks for authorization from
the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Louisiana to
employ and compensate Darnall, Sikes, Gardes & Frederick, A
Corporation of Certified Public Accountants, as accountant.

The Firm performs ongoing services during the pendency of the case
and in particular will be involved in the preparation of tax
returns, fiscal audit and 401k audits.  

The Firm has been listed as a critical vendor and the Debtor seeks
to pay the Firm for prepetition services in the ordinary course of
business.

The Debtor tells the Court it cannot continue to operate its
businesses with sound business practices unless it retains and pays
for the Firm's services.  The operation of the Debtor's businesses
would be hindered if the Debtor was required to submit to the Court
an application, affidavit and proposed retention order for each
ordinary course professional and if each ordinary course
professional was required to apply for approval of its employment
and compensation, and comply with Guidelines for Reviewing
Applications for Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses Filed
Under U.S. Code by Attorneys in Larger Chapter 11 Cases.  Further,
the Firm is not familiar with the fee application procedures
employed in bankruptcy cases.  The Firm might be unwilling to work
with the Debtor if these requirements were imposed.  The
uninterrupted services of the Firm are vital to the Debtor's
continuing operations and its ultimate ability to reorganize.

The Debtor also contends that the cost of preparing and prosecuting
retention applications and fee applications would be significant
and unnecessary because the costs would ultimately be borne by the
Debtor's estate.  A requirement that the Firm file retention
pleadings and follow the usual fee application process required of
other bankruptcy professionals would burden the Office of the Clerk
of the Court and the U.S. Trustee's office with unnecessary fee
applications.  The Firm proposes a procedure to alleviate the
burden.

The Debtor proposes to file a statement with the Court and to serve
the statement on the U.S. Trustee and any official committee
appointed in this case concerning the services performed by the
Firm and the aggregate amounts paid as compensation for services
rendered and reimbursement of expenses incurred by the the Firm.
Payments to the Firm will be included in the monthly operating
reports.  Although, the Firm holds an unsecured claim against the
Debtor in respect of prepetition services rendered, the Debtor does
not believe the Firm has an interest materially adverse to the
Debtor, its creditors, or other parties in interest, and thus, the
Firm meets the requirements of section 327(e) of the Bankruptcy
Code.

MD AMERICA: S&P Lowers CCR to 'SD' on Term Loan Redemption Plans
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on MD
America Energy LLC to 'SD' (selective default) from 'CCC'.  S&P
also lowered the issue-level rating on the company's term loan to
'D' from 'CCC'.  The recovery rating is '3', indicating S&P's
expectation of meaningful (50% to 70%, high end of the range)
recovery in the event of a default.

"The downgrade reflects MDAE's announcement that it is redeeming
its term loan due 2019 at 94% to par with proceeds from an equity
infusion from its parent company Meidu Energy Corp., said S&P
Global Ratings credit analyst Christine Besset.  "We view the
transaction as distressed because debtholders will receive less
than par, and because we believe that MDAE's leverage was
unsustainable given our expectation of deteriorating cash flow
generation," she added.

S&P expects to reassess the corporate credit rating within the next
few days, once the term loan has been repaid in full.  S&P's
analysis will incorporate the absence of debt of the company, while
still taking into account the small size and scale of its asset
base, the challenging operating environment, and the likelihood of
potential acquisitions and releveraging in the next 12 months.



METROPOLITAN BAPTIST: Plan Filing Period Extended by 90 Days
------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. S. Martin Teel, Jr., has extended, at the behest of
Metropolitan Baptist Church, the exclusive period for Debtor to
file a plan in this case for an additional 90 days from July 5,
2016.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on June 8, 2016, the
Debtors sought the extension, saying that it has made significant
progress with respect to both the relocation of its religious
activities to permanent facilities and the reorganization of its
debt.  As a result of constructive negotiations with its creditors,
Debtor has formulated the basis of a viable plan of reorganization
beneficial to all interested parties.  However, the Debtor says it
needs additional time to complete this process and for this reason
the Debtor requests that the Court increase the exclusive time for
Debtor to propose a plan in this case by an additional 90 days.

Headquartered in Largo, Maryland, Metropolitan Baptist Church filed
for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr. D.C. Case No.
16-00040) on Feb. 5, 2016, estimating its assets at between $1
million and $10 million and liabilities at between $10 million and
$50 million.  The petition was signed by Harry T. Jones, Jr.,
Chair, Board of Trustees.

Judge Martin S. Teel, Jr., presides over the case.

Wendell W. Webster, Esq., at Webster & Fredrickson, PLLC, serves as
the Debtor's bankruptcy counsel.


MID-SOUTH AUTO AUCTION: Files Full-Payment Chapter 11 Plan

statement.

continuing until the sale of the real property or 12 months from

full upon the sale of the real property, including accrued interest

NORTHWEST HARDWOODS: Moody's Lowers CFR to B3, Outlook Stable
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded Northwest Hardwoods, Inc.'s
(NWH) Corporate Family Rating to B3 from B2 following performance
below previous expectations and Moody's belief that credit metrics
have become supportive of lower ratings.  In related actions,
Moody's downgraded NWH's Probability of Default Rating to B3-PD
from B2-PD, and its senior secured notes due 2021 to Caa1 from B3.
The rating outlook remains stable.

These ratings/assessments are affected by this action:

  Corporate Family Rating, downgraded to B3 from B2;
  Probability of Default Rating, downgraded to B3-PD from B2-PD;
   and,
  Senior secured notes due 2021, downgraded to Caa1 (LGD4) from B3

   (LGD4).

                         RATINGS RATIONALE

The downgrade of Northwest Hardwoods' CFR to B3 results from
operating performance below Moody's previous expectations.  Recent
underperformance is due to lower year-over-year lumber prices,
particularly in the alder and red oak species, as well as
constrained alder supply near its western mills.  Moody's does not
anticipate lumber prices to rebound over the next 12-18 months.
Moody's projects adjusted EBITA margins to remain well below
historical levels.  Projected lower earnings will push NWH's debt
leverage above 7.0x and its interest coverage (measured as
EBITA-to-interest expense) slightly below 1.0x over the next 12-18
months (ratios incorporate Moody's standard adjustments).  These
key credit metrics are characteristic of lower-rated entities.

The stable rating outlook reflects NWH's liquidity profile,
supported by positive free cash flow and good availability under
its $150 million revolving credit facility, giving NWH financial
flexibility to contend with its contracting operating margins and
resulting weak debt credit metrics.  Positive rating actions are
not likely at this time.  However, if Northwest Hardwoods'
performance exceeds Moody's expectations, with a more balanced
industry supply and demand environment resulting in these metrics:

   -- Debt-to-EBITDA trending below 5.5x (7.7x as of 1Q16)
   -- EBITA-to-interest expense nearing 1.75x (1.1x for LTM 1Q16)
   -- An improvement in NWH's liquidity profile could also support

      better ratings.

Negative rating actions could ensue if NWH's performance continues
to deteriorate, falling below Moody's expectations and resulting in
these metrics:

   -- Debt-to-EBITDA sustained above 7.0x
   -- EBITA-to-interest expense trending towards 0.75x
   -- A deterioration of the company's liquidity profile, large
      dividends, or higher usage of the revolving credit facility
      could pressure the ratings as well.

Northwest Hardwoods, Inc., headquartered in Tacoma, WA, is a
national manufacturer and distributor of hardwood lumber used for
diverse products such as mill work, cabinetry, flooring, and
furniture.  Approximately 30% of revenues are derived from exports.
Littlejohn & Co., through its affiliates, is the primary owner of
Northwest Hardwoods.  Revenues on a pro forma basis for the last 12
months through March 31, 2016 were approximately
$750 million.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global
Manufacturing Companies published in July 2014.


OPPENHEIMER HOLDINGS: S&P Affirms 'B' ICR, Outlook Positive
-----------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it revised its outlook on Oppenheimer
Holdings Inc. to positive from stable.  S&P also affirmed its 'B'
issuer credit and senior secured debt ratings on Oppenheimer.

"The outlook revision reflects progress the firm has made on its
regulatory and legal issues, as well as recent improvement in
funding metrics and risk-adjusted capitalization," said S&P Global
Ratings credit analyst Robert Hoban.

Oppenheimer is a holding company whose subsidiaries provide retail
brokerage, asset management, and capital markets services.  With
$78 billion in total client assets, the firm is significantly
smaller than the largest U.S. brokers.  S&P believes Oppenheimer
has an adequate business position because low-risk retail brokerage
and investment management account for two-thirds of revenue, and
its retail client relationships have proven to be relatively sticky
despite regulatory issues.  However, the firm's reliance on
transactional trading-related revenue has hurt profitability
because market volatility has curtailed client trade activity since
the summer of 2015.

Chief among the firm's settlement strains is its buybacks of
auction rate securities (ARS) from clients since the February 2008
failure of the market.  Both its holdings of ARS and the amount the
firm may have to repurchase have declined to more manageable
levels.  As of March 31, 2016, the firm's ARS holdings were $84.2
million, down $15 million from the previous year, and its
repurchase obligations under agreement with regulators and
litigation settlements were $33.5 million.  This represented, in
S&P's view, the bulk of potential ARS purchases given that total
remaining customer owned ARS has declined to $152 million (from
$2.8 billion in 2008) and there are no remaining "live" ARS cases.
Moreover, some ARS issuers have started to retire their
securities.

S&P views this reduction in potential contingent stable funding
needs positively.  This, the recent sale of its commercial real
estate business, and a slowdown in client activity has improved the
firm's gross stable funding ratio (GSFR) to above 110%, liquidity
coverage metric (LCM) to 97%, and risk-adjusted capital ratio to
9.9%.  S&P expects, however, the GSFR and LCM metrics to decrease
somewhat as client activity returns to more normal levels.

The positive outlook reflects the progress the firm has made on its
regulatory and legal issues, as well as recent improvement in
funding, liquidity, and capital metrics.  That said, S&P expects
the firm's regulatory compliance and litigation issues to remain a
limiting factor on the ratings.  S&P believes a return to operating
profitability would relieve some of the strain these put on
capital, funding, and liquidity.

S&P could raise ratings over the next 12 months if the firm
improves profitability, meets its regulatory and litigation
settlement obligations and establishes a solid compliance track
record, and maintains its GSFR and LCM ratios above 100% on a
sustained basis.

S&P could revise the outlook to stable if it expected the
risk-adjusted capital ratio to fall below 7%, or regulatory capital
to be pressured; the GFSR or LCM to fall below 80% or 90%,
respectively; or if the company does not manage to address
profitability issues.


PALMAZ SCIENTIFIC: Has Go Signal to Sell Assets
-----------------------------------------------
Judge Craig A. Gargotta of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Western District of Texas, San Antonio Division, authorizes Palmaz
Scientific Inc. and its affiliated debtors to sell substantially
all of their assets and the June 10, 2016 auction of the assets.

The Troubled Company Reporter has earlier reported that the Debtors
asked the Court to approve an auction sale and bid protections for
the sale of substantially all of the Debtors' assets, and
identified Vactronix Scientific, Inc., as the initial bidder for
the Debtors' assets at a purchase price of $22,600,000 on an "as
is, where is basis."

Palmaz Scientific Inc., et al., are expected to move forward with
the sale of substantially all assets to Vactronix Scientific,
Inc.,
for $22,600,000 as no qualified competing bids were submitted by
the June 8, 2016 deadline.

The Debtors have negotiated an agreement for Vactronix Scientific,
Inc., a creditor of Palmaz Scientific, Inc. and owned directly or
indirectly by an insider of the Debtors, to act as a "stalking
horse" bidder for the assets.  The Debtors signed a contract to
sell the assets to Vactronix for $22,600,000 (which is in the form
or cash and a credit bid), subject to higher and better offers.

On June 3, 2016, the Debtors won approval of bid procedures, which
set a June 8 deadline for competing bids, and a June 10 auction
and
sale hearing.

The Debtors said in their First Amended Disclosure Statement,
filed
June 10, 2016, that although someone appeared at the June 8, 2016
Disclosure Statement hearing and made an oral offer for one asset,
no third party bidder qualified to bid pursuant to the
Court approved bid procedures.

After consummation of the sale (which the Debtors anticipate to
occur on or as soon after the Plan’s Effective Date as
possible,
the proceeds of the sale will be distributed to the creditors
pursuant to the terms of the Plan.  Under the Plan, secured and
unsecured creditors are unimpaired and will be paid in full.
Equity holders will be paid from what's left of the estates after
creditors are paid in full.  Equity holders are due to send their
ballots by June 24.  The confirmation hearing is scheduled for
June
27.

PENN VIRGINIA: Equity Holders Object to Disclosure Statement
------------------------------------------------------------
The Ad Hoc Committee of Equity Security Holders of Penn Virginia
Corporation, et al., object to the disclosure statement explaining
the Debtors' Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization.

Specifically, the Ad Hoc Committee asserts that the Disclosure
Statement must not be approved because it contains inadequate
information with respect to, among others, the Debtors' financial
operations, the Debtors' enterprise value, the Debtors' avoidance
actions, releases and exculpations, unexpired leases and executor
contracts, and the composition of the board of directors for the
Reorganized Debtor.

The Ad Hoc Committee points out that the Releases as granted by the
Plan are particularly troubling.  The Committee says the Debtors
have provided no information in the Disclosure Statement concerning
the claims released, their investigation of the claims released,
and the value of the claims waived and released.  A waiver of all
Avoidance Actions could result in a substantial loss to all
parties-in-interest that cannot be justified simply by stating that
the costs of litigation outweigh the benefits of those actions, the
Committee asserts.

PICO HOLDINGS: Bloggers Vote "Against" Adjournment
--------------------------------------------------
PICO Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:PICO), based in La Jolla, Calif., is a
diversified holding company reporting recurring losses since 2008.
PICO owns 57% of UCP, Inc. (NYSE:UCP), 100% of Vidler Water
Company, Inc., a securities portfolio and various interests in
small businesses. PICO has $664 million in assets and $434 million
in shareholder equity. Central Square Management LLC and River Road
Asset Management LLC collectively own more than 14% of PICO. Other
activists at http://ReformPICONow.com/have taken to the Internet
to advance the shareholder cause.

The bloggers have received a few inquiries about Annual Meeting
Adjournment, so they explain adjournment, illustrate some details
particular to PICO Holdings, and outline why shareowners should
vote "Against" Adjournment.

PICO's Amended and Restated Bylaws, Section 2.6, addresses Annual
Meeting Adjournment and states that an Annual Meeting can be
adjourned as long as a majority of shares authorize adjournment.
Here, "Majority" refers to shares that have voted, not absolute
majority.

The bloggers say that "We have been told that right now, John "The
Juicer" Hart is working hard to procure votes for his
shareholder-abusive slate of proposals -- that he is pulling out
all the stops to get Kenneth "The Slug" Slepicka and Howard
"Hapless Howie" Brownstein reelected. Recall that The Slug is a
perpetrator of PICOGate, whereby he and Mr. Hart failed to disclose
a material conflict of interest for 6 years. Mr. Brownstein is
PICO's Audit Chair, who we believe has betrayed shareholders via an
inadequate and cronyistic inquiry of PICOGate that we characterize
as a coverup. RPN has voted "Against" both men in their pursuit of
Director Reelection for a 3-year term, ending in 2019.

We are told that Mr. Hart is also lobbying for votes to
reincorporate PICO in Delaware, which would strip shareowners of
our valuable cumulative voting rights and provide Mr. Hart and his
corrupt and incompetent Directors with greater legal protection for
their abuses of shareholders.

The bloggers claim unfair advantage, explaining, "Mr. Hart, his
cronies and his professionals, have access to the vote tallies via
a company named Broadridge. If you examine your proxy statement and
proxy card, either electronic or hard copy, you will see
Broadridge's name.

Spun off from Automatic Data Processing in 2007, Broadridge is the
dominant proxy solicitor, with a market share that Bruce Goldfarb,
at Okapi Partners, once told us was above 90% (Investors interested
in high-profitability businesses with enduring competitive
advantages would do well to read the Broadridge annual reports).

Mr. Goldfarb also told us that the proxy process favors incumbent
management, because Broadridge provides them with updated vote
tallies. Shareholders enjoy no such privileged access.

The Annual Meeting will only be adjourned for one reason: if the
voting frustrates the efforts of the Entrenched Directors. If the
meeting is adjourned, the Entrenched Directors, their cronies and
their professionals will then spend more of our money lobbying for
votes, trying to get investors to switch sides. But investors don't
switch for free; they have to be bought.  We'd envision the
Entrenched Directors buying them using our economic resources.

Sound like a nightmare? It is. Unless you vote "Against"
Adjournment.

The bloggers conclude, "PICO shareholders have the power to nullify
this advantage by voting 'Against' Adjournment."

SPORTS AUTHORITY: Broncos Stadium Naming Rights Fail to Lure Bids
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tom Hals and Jessica Dinapoli, writing for Reuters, reported that
tickets to watch U.S. professional football team the Denver
Broncos, the winners of the 2016 Super Bowl, may be a hot
commodity, but an auction for their stadium's naming rights without
any bids being received.

According to the report, the stadium in Denver is called Sports
Authority Field at Mile High Stadium, named after the eponymous
sporting goods retailer in 2011.  However, Sports Authority filed
for bankruptcy in March and put the naming rights up for sale as
part of a court-supervised auction, the report related.

No bidders for the rights came forward at an auction of the
retailer's assets, Matt Sugar, the director of stadium affairs at
the Metropolitan Football Stadium District, which is the owner of
the stadium, told Reuters.  Discussions are underway about
launching a new auction for the naming rights, the report said.

The contract for the naming rights up for grabs extends until 2021,
and comes with a $3.6 million payment obligation due Aug. 1, the
report added.  Sports Authority is current on payments under the
naming rights contract, Sugar said, the report further related.

STEVEN FISHER: Home to Be Foreclosed Under Ch. 11 Plan
------------------------------------------------------
Steven D. Fisher and Lynn A. Fisher filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Arizona a disclosure statement to assist
their creditors in making an informed decision in voting on the
Plan of Reorganization dated July 27, 2015, as revised.

The Plan will be funded by the $20,310 proceeds from the State Farm
Settlement, the Debtors' postpetition income, and monies expected
to flow through to the Debtors from their interests in Fisher
Opportunity Corporation and FOC Lawshe Ltd Partnership.

The Plan proposes for the automatic stay to be lifted in order for
Caliber Home Loans, Inc., and First Financial Bank to foreclose on
the Debtors' residence at 1310 W. Island Circle, in Chandler,
Arizona.  Ocotillo Community Association, which is owed past due
homeowners association fees, will receive no monetary distribution
under the Plan and will look to its collateral for satisfaction of
its claim.

US Bank will be paid in full.  The Debtors returned a Nissan Altima
to Nissan Infiniti LT.  Nissan will have an unsecured claim in the
amount of $856 for the balance remaining due under the vehicle
lease.

Steven and Lynn Fisher have been involved in various businesses and
real estate ventures over the years.

provided by the firm include:

     (a) working with the Debtors to organize the lease

     (b) contacting the landlord for each property and
         negotiating with the landlords for modifications in
         accordance with the parameters established by the    
         Debtors;

     (c) working with the landlords, the Debtors and their counsel

         to document all lease modification proposals;

     (d) contacting and negotiating with landlords to obtain
         consent to extensions of the Debtors' time to assume or
         reject real property leases;

     (e) coordinating with the Debtors the development of due
         diligence materials;

     (f) developing a marketing plan and implementing each facet

         will pay the firm, on a per property basis, the greater
         of $4,500 (base fee) or 5% of "savings."  If the

         does not generate savings, then Keen-Summit will be paid,

         on a per property basis, the $4,500 base fee (transaction

         fee).

     (c) If directed by the Debtors to negotiate with landlords to

         obtain extensions of time to assume or reject Leases,
         Keen-Summit will be paid a fee in the amount of $500 for
         each such fully executed extension.

     (d) If the Debtors and a landlord execute a modification

         transaction is completed individually or as part of a

         reorganization, then, for each closing of a transaction
         in which any owned property is sold, Keen-Summit will
         earn a fee in an amount equal to 4% of the gross
         proceeds.

     (f) For any leased property rejected by the Debtors, if, as a

         result of Keen-Summit's efforts the landlord agrees to
         reduce, release or waive the claim it could assert, the
         firm will receive a fee in an amount equal to 5% of the
         savings of any distribution that otherwise would have
         been payable to the landlord in the bankruptcy case.

         For any lease assumed by the Debtor if, as a result of
         Keen-Summit's efforts the landlord agrees to reduce,
         release or waive its reasonably asserted cure claim, the
         firm will receive a fee in an amount equal to 5% of such
         reduction, release or waiver.

         incurred by Keen-Summit.

SUPERIOR PLUS: S&P Revises Outlook to Stable & Affirms 'BB' CCR
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it revised its outlook on Toronto-based
Superior Plus Corp. (including its wholly owned subsidiary Superior
Plus L.P.; collectively, Superior) to stable from negative.  At the
same time, S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB' long-term corporate
credit rating on the company.

S&P Global Ratings also affirmed its 'BB' issue-level rating on
Superior's senior unsecured debt, and revised its recovery rating
on the debt to '3' from '4', indicating an expectation of
meaningful recovery (50%-70%; at the lower end of the range), in a
default scenario.

The outlook revision follows Superior's June 30 announcement that
the company has terminated its agreement to acquire Canexus Corp.

"Our revised outlook on Superior reflects our view that the
termination of its agreement to acquire Canexus eliminates the
downside risk to the company's cash flow and leverage metrics,
which we expect should remain within the ranges we deem appropriate
for the rating," said S&P Global Ratings analyst Michelle Dathorne.
"Furthermore, we expect the sale of the construction products
division to bolster cash flow metrics on a net debt basis, which we
believe adequately supports the 'BB' corporate credit rating," Ms.
Dathorne added.

S&P expects cash flow metrics to improve beyond 2016 driven by
relative stability in the energy services segment and upside
potential in the chlor-alkali segment.  Superior's announced sale
of its construction products division (CPD) and use of proceeds to
reduce debt should further support the company's net debt cash flow
and leverage metrics.

As the CPD segment contributes less than 15% to Superior's
consolidated EBITDA and funds from operations (FFO), its sale does
not weaken S&P's assessment of Superior's operational
diversification, nor does it have an adverse effect on S&P's
forecast FFO generation.  Because S&P expects proceeds to fund debt
reduction in the near term, cash flow metrics should benefit from
the company's reduced net debt position.

Superior has a solid market position in the energy services and
chemicals segment as well as good operational, geographic, and
customer diversity.  This is partially offset, in S&P's view, by
weak pricing power and limited scale in each of its segments.
Superior's energy services business is the largest propane
distributor in Canada, with an estimated 30%-35% market share, and
also has a presence in U.S. heating oil and propane business.  The
company's chemicals business is the largest marketer of sodium
chlorate in North America and the second-largest producer in North
America and worldwide.  In addition, Superior has decent market
share positions in chlor-alkali products.  Demand in the chemicals
segment is primarily driven by conditions in the volatile pulp and
paper industry.

The stable outlook on Superior reflects S&P Global Ratings'
expectation that the company will maintain credit measures
commensurate with a significant financial risk profile, most
notably three-year, weighted-average FFO-to-debt in the 25%-30%
range, which is at the stronger end of the ratios appropriate for
the 'BB' corporate credit rating.

Absent an improvement in the company's business risk profile, which
S&P do not expect in the near term, it could raise the ratings if
the company's credit measures improved to those typically
associated with an intermediate financial risk
profile--specifically, three-year, weighted-average FFO-to-debt of
more than 30%--and if management appears committed to maintaining
credit metrics at this minimum level on a consistent basis.

S&P could lower the ratings if the three-year, weighted-average
FFO-to-debt were to deteriorate and stay below 20%, possibly due to
operational challenges at the energy services division or a sharp
deterioration in profitability at the specialty chemicals division.
Although not expected in the near term, S&P could also lower the
rating if management pursues more aggressive financial policies or
actions, including significant debt-financed acquisitions or
shareholder returns, which could jeopardize S&P's 20% leverage
threshold.

THOMPSON CREEK METALS: Moody's Reviews Caa1 CFR for Upgrade
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service placed the ratings of Thompson Creek
Metals Company Inc. under review for upgrade following the
announcement of a definitive arrangement to be acquired by Centerra
Gold Inc. (Centerra, not rated).  At closing or soon thereafter,
Centerra will redeem all of Thompson Creek's secured and unsecured
notes at their call price.  Ratings under review include Thompson
Creek's Caa1 Corporate Family Rating, Caa1-PD Probability of
Default rating, its B1 senior secured rating and its Caa2 senior
unsecured ratings.

On Review for Upgrade:

Issuer: Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc.

  Probability of Default Rating, Placed on Review for Upgrade,
   currently Caa1-PD

  Corporate Family Rating, Placed on Review for Upgrade, currently

   Caa1

  Multiple Seniority Shelf, Placed on Review for Upgrade,
   currently (P)Caa2

  Senior Secured Regular Bond/Debenture, Placed on Review for
   Upgrade, currently B1(LGD2)

  Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Placed on Review for

   Upgrade, currently Caa2(LGD5)

Outlook Actions:

Issuer: Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc.

  Outlook, Changed To Rating Under Review From Negative

                         RATINGS RATIONALE

Thompson Creek's Caa1 corporate family rating is under review for
upgrade because all of its rated debt will be redeemed upon closing
of its acquisition by Centerra Gold.  Moody's expects to withdraw
all ratings of Thompson Creek if the acquisition closes and the
debt is redeemed.

The arrangement proposes the redemption of Thompson Creek's 9.75%
secured notes due in 2017, the 7.375% unsecured notes due in 2018,
and the 12.5% unsecured notes due in 2019, all of which are
callable now, and is expected to be financed with a combination of
a new US$325 million senior secured revolver and term loan
facility, a C$170 million bought deal subscription receipt
offering, and cash on hand at Centerra and Thompson Creek (As of
March 31, 2016, Centerra and Thompson Creek had an aggregate of
US$640 million in cash and short term investments).

The completion of the transaction is subject to the approval of
Thompson Creek's shareholders as well as certain regulatory
approvals and customary conditions.  The review will conclude once
the acquisition closes and Thompson Creek's debt is redeemed,
likely in the fall of 2016.

Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc., owns and operates the Mt.
Milligan Mine, an open-pit copper and gold mine and concentrator in
British Columbia.  The mine life is 22 years with average expected
production of approximately 94 million pounds of copper and 286
thousand ounces of gold in the first five years of production.  The
Company also has molybdenum assets in Idaho, and British Columbia,
and its Langeloth Metallurgical Facility in Pennsylvania.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global Mining
Industry published in August 2014.


TOMS SHOES: Moody's Lowers CFR to Caa1, Outlook Stable
------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded the ratings of TOMS Shoes,
LLC, including the company's Corporate Family Rating to Caa1 from
B3, Probability of Default Rating to Caa1-PD from B3-PD, and senior
secured term loan rating to Caa1 from B3.  The rating outlook is
stable.

The downgrade reflects the company's high net leverage of 9.4x and
gross leverage of 9.7x (as of LTM Q1 2016, based on management
adjusted metrics) and Moody's expectations that leverage will
decline but remain elevated in the next 12-24 months.  TOMS' new
management team is implementing cost reduction and growth
initiatives, and the company saw strong revenue growth in Q4 2015
and Q1 2016, although EBITDA declined in part because of
investments to support growth initiatives.  Moody's anticipates
that the company's strategies will lead to EBITDA growth in 2017
but views TOMS' ability to meaningfully turn around its operations
and reduce leverage to a more sustainable level near 7 times as
uncertain, considering the high execution risk of implementing
multiple initiatives under significant leverage constraints and
amid a challenging retail environment.

Moody's expects management adjusted debt/EBITDA to decline to about
9 times by year end 2016 mainly as a result of revolver paydown.
Moody's anticipates that TOMS will have adequate near term
liquidity, including modestly positive annual free cash flow and
lower but still sizeable revolver borrowings in the next 12-18
months.

Moody's took these rating actions on TOMS Shoes, LLC:

   -- Corporate Family Rating, Downgraded to Caa1 from B3
   -- Probability of Default Rating, Downgraded to Caa1-PD from
      B3-PD
   -- $306.5 Million Senior Secured Term Loan due 2020, Downgraded

      to Caa1 (LGD4) from B3 (LGD3)
   -- Outlook, Changed to Stable from Negative

                         RATINGS RATIONALE

The Caa1 CFR reflects TOMS' high leverage and weak interest
coverage following a significant deterioration in operating
performance since 2014.  The rating also incorporates TOMS' small
scale, high fashion risk and limited revenue diversification
compared to the majority of rated apparel peers, with about half of
revenue derived from the alpargata line.  Moody's expects the
company to have adequate liquidity in the next 12-18 months,
including nominal cash balances, modestly positive annual free cash
flow generation and meaningful revolver borrowings.  The rating is
supported by the ongoing appeal of TOMS successful
philanthropic-based "one-for-one" product giveaway commitment,
growth outside alpargata shoes and channel diversification.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations for improving
leverage and adequate liquidity.

The ratings could be downgraded if liquidity deteriorates for any
reason or if the probability of a distressed exchange or other
default increases.  In addition, the ratings could be pressured if
it appears that TOMS' is unable to execute its turnaround plan and
grow earnings, or if its core product and philanthropic
"one-for-one" shoe giveaway commitment is no longer resonating
strongly with consumers.

The ratings could be upgraded if TOMS achieves and sustains revenue
and EBITDA growth for a prolonged period, while profitably
diversifying its revenues.  A higher rating would require
significantly lower leverage and maintenance of adequate
liquidity.

TOMS Shoes, LLC is a designer, retailer and wholesaler primarily of
footwear under the TOMS brand.  TOMS' commitment to donating one
free product for each one sold is a cornerstone of its business
strategy.  The company's products are sold globally in the
wholesale channel and directly to consumers primarily through
ecommerce.  Revenue for the twelve months ended March 31, 2016 was
about $416 million.  The company was founded by Mr. Blake Mycoskie
in 2006 and Bain Capital acquired a 50% ownership stake in October
2014.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global Apparel
Companies published in May 2013.

TOSHIBA SAMSUNG: Disc Drive JV Unit Seeks Ch. 15 Protection
-----------------------------------------------------------
Toshiba Samsung Storage Technology Korea Corporation, a unit of
Toshiba Corp., sought and obtained an order from the 6th Bankruptcy
Division of the Seoul Central District Court commencing
rehabilitation proceeding with respect to the Company under the
Debtor Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy Act, as amended.  The
Commencement Order, entered June 16, 2016, authorized Dae Sung Cho
to act as trustee of the Company's assets.

The Company, which manufactures and sells optical disc drives in
South Korea, cited the decline in the ODD market and uncertain
future business prospects as the causes of its financial
difficulties.  The Debtor intends to operate as a going concern
while it undergoes rehabilitation.

Toshiba Corp., is subject to a pending infringement suit filed by
LG Electronics, Inc., in the Federal District Court of Delaware.
The suit relates to a five-year free cross patent license agreement
between Toshiba and LG, which also provided the Company, as
Toshiba's subsidiary, the benefit of free patent license.  On its
expiration at the end of 2011, Toshiba and LG commenced a
discussion for the renewal of the agreement and LG requested a
royalty no less than $667 million due to the Company's ODDs.  The
renewal was not successful and LG filed the infringement suit
asserting four patents against the Company on Aug. 22, 2012.

Dae Sung Cho, as foreign representative of the Company, filed a
Chapter 15 petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District
of Delaware (Bankr. D. Del. Case No. 16-11602) on July 5, 2016,
seeking recognition in the United States of the Korean Proceeding.
The Chapter 15 case is assigned to Judge Christopher S. Sontchi.
The petitioner is represented by Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell
LLP as counsel.

As of March 31, 2016, the Company had total assets of KRW 64.76
billion and total debts of KRW 91.16 billion, Court documents
show.

Founded in 2004, the Company offers BD-writers, optical smart hubs,
DVD-writers, and DVD-ROMs.


TRANSOCEAN INC: Moody's Assigns B1 Rating on $1.5BB Sr. Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B1 rating to Transocean Inc.'s
offering of $1.5 billion senior notes due 2023. Concurrently,
Moody's has downgraded the existing senior notes ratings to Caa1
from B2.  Transocean's B2 Corporate Family Rating and the B2-PD
Probability of Default Rating (PDR) were affirmed.  The company's
Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating (SGL) of SGL-1 was affirmed and
the rating outlook is stable.

The proposed senior notes will be unsecured but will be guaranteed
by certain Transocean subsidiaries and its parent company,
Transocean Ltd.  The proceeds of the notes offering will be used to
repurchase outstanding notes as outlined in a simultaneously
announced tender offer and for general corporate purposes.

"This senior notes offering and concurrent tender offer will
improve Transocean's debt maturity profile and enhance its already
very good liquidity position," said Pete Speer, Moody's Senior Vice
President.  "However, the existing senior notes that remain
outstanding will be structurally subordinated to the new notes
following this transaction, which resulted in the downgrade of the
existing senior notes ratings."

Downgrades:

Issuer: Transocean Inc.
  Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debentures, Downgraded to Caa1
   (LGD 5) from B2 (LGD 4)

Assignments:

  Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Assigned B1 (LGD 3)

Affirmations:

  Probability of Default Rating, Affirmed B2-PD
  Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, Affirmed SGL-1
  Corporate Family Rating, Affirmed B2

Outlook Actions:

  Outlook, Remains Stable

                         RATINGS RATIONALE

The assigned B1 rating on Transocean's proposed $1.5 billion senior
notes due 2023 is one notch higher than the B2 CFR, reflecting the
new notes' structurally superior position in Transocean's capital
structure relative to the existing senior notes and revolving
credit facility.  The new senior notes will be guaranteed by newly
formed intermediate holding company subsidiaries, effectively
giving the new notes a priority claim to the assets held by
Transocean's operating and other subsidiaries.

The structural subordination of Transocean's existing senior notes
resulted in these notes being downgraded to Caa1 from B2, or two
notches below the B2 CFR.  The existing senior notes are unsecured
and have no subsidiary guarantees and therefore their claim to the
assets held by Transocean's operating and other subsidiaries will
be subordinate to the claims of the new notes.

Under Moody's Loss Given Default Methodology, the significant
amount of debt structurally subordinated to the new notes would
indicate a Ba3 rating for the new notes, while the revolving credit
facility remaining pari passu with the existing notes would
indicate a B3 rating for the existing notes.  Moody's views the
assigned B1 and Caa1 ratings as more appropriate given the
potential for the revolving credit facility to become pari passu
with the new notes or even secured in the future, and the potential
for other future secured debt issuances as Transocean continues to
manage its debt maturities and the existing senior unsecured notes
become a smaller portion of the overall capital structure.  Moody's
observes that depending on the amount of any future secured debt
issuances, the B1 rating on the new notes could be downgraded.

Transocean's B2 CFR reflects Moody's expectation that the company's
financial leverage will rise through 2017 and then will likely
increase substantially in 2018 based on Moody's outlook for weak
dayrates and stagnant or declining rig utilization.  The company
has more new rig construction commitments than many of its peers.
But Transocean has been very successful in deferring many of those
capital spending commitments into 2019 and beyond.  The B2 rating
is supported by the company's proactive measures to reduce
operating costs, address debt maturities and enhance operational
utilization for its active rigs, its very good liquidity and its
large and diverse offshore drilling rig fleet.

Transocean's SGL-1 Speculative Grade Liquidity rating reflects very
good liquidity through 2017 because of its sizable cash balance and
borrowing availability under its credit facility. The company had
$2.6 billion of unrestricted cash at March 31, 2016 and full
availability under its $3.0 billion revolving credit facility.  The
cash balance and operating cash flow should more than cover
anticipated capital expenditures and debt maturities through 2017.
At March 31, 2016, Transocean had $974 million, $568 million and
about $1 billion of senior notes maturing in 2016, 2017, and 2018,
respectively.  The issuance of the new notes and announced tender
offer for existing senior notes maturing in 2020 through 2022 will
effectively refinance a portion of those maturities while
increasing cash balances for the nearer term maturities.  Moody's
expects that the company will use any remaining proceeds of the new
notes following the tender offer and existing cash balances to
repay its upcoming debt maturities.

The committed bank revolving credit facility matures in June 2019
and has one financial maintenance covenant, limiting debt to
capitalization to 60%.  There is good headroom to remain in
compliance through 2017.  Asset sales, while challenging given the
market conditions for offshore drilling rigs, can be used to raise
cash since the company's assets are unencumbered.  The sale of
Transocean's equity interests in Transocean Partners is an
additional source of liquidity, if needed, although current market
conditions may make such sales challenging.

The stable outlook incorporates the company's very good liquidity
to offset the weak offshore drilling environment and Moody's
expectation that Debt/EBITDA will increase to over 5x in 2017.

An upgrade is unlikely given our expectations for rising financial
leverage over the next few years.  If Debt/EBITDA can be sustained
below 5x beyond 2017 in a stable or improving offshore drilling
market then the ratings could be upgraded.  Obtaining customer
contracts on rigs under construction at healthy dayrates would be
supportive of an upgrade.  The ratings could be downgraded if
Debt/EBITDA rises above 6x on a sustained basis or the company is
not able to maintain ample liquidity in advance of its debt
maturities.  Debt funded acquisitions or a material loss of backlog
could also pressure the ratings.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global Oilfield
Services Industry Rating Methodology published in December 2014.

Transocean Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Transocean Ltd., a
leading international offshore drilling contractor operating in
every major offshore producing basin around the world.


TRANSOCEAN INC: S&P Assigns 'BB-' Rating on Planned $1.5BB Notes
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it assigned its 'BB-' issue-level and
'3' recovery ratings to Transocean Inc.'s planned $1.5 billion
senior unsecured notes due 2023. Certain of Transocean's
subsidiaries and parent company Transocean Ltd. will provide
guarantees.  The company expects to use proceeds from the
transaction for refinancing existing debt and for general corporate
purposes.

S&P also assigned a '3' recovery rating, reflecting its expectation
of meaningful (50% to 70%, higher end of the range) recovery to
creditors in the event of a payment default.

The 'BB-' long-term corporate credit rating on Transocean and
'BB-' issue-level and '3' recovery ratings on its existing senior
unsecured debt are unchanged.

The ratings on Transocean reflect S&P's assessment of the company's
satisfactory business risk profile, aggressive financial risk
profile, and strong liquidity.  S&P's ratings incorporate the
company's position as the largest global offshore drilling company
and our view of the fleet's significant deepwater and midwater
component as being less competitive during an industry downturn.
The company's fleet is also somewhat older than several of its
industry peers.  S&P notes that Transocean is investing in new
high-specification rigs, which ultimately, will improve its
competiveness, and the company has moved aggressively to retire
less marketable, lower-specification equipment.  The negative
outlook reflects S&P's expectation that Transocean's credit
measures will weaken as contracts roll off and weak demand results
in difficulty replacing them.

USA DISCOUNTERS: Inks Deal to Resolve Colorado Lawsuit
------------------------------------------------------
Jacqueline Palank, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reported
that liquidating retailer USA Discounters will offer debt relief to
settle litigation accusing it of scamming its Colorado customers,
including military service members.

According to the report, the defunct retailer, accused in multiple
states of unfair financing terms and improper debt-collection
efforts, particularly against military members, is asking the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Del., to authorize a settlement
agreement with the state of Colorado.  USA Discounters said the
settlement, negotiated "on the eve of trial," marks a significant
step forward in its bid to wrap up its bankruptcy liquidation, the
report related.

"The settlement of the Colorado litigation resolves one of the open
contingencies in these cases and signals to creditors and parties
in interest that the debtors are indeed committed to working in
good faith toward resolution of the remaining open contingencies
that have thus far blocked the debtors' path to prosecution of a
chapter 11 plan," the Journal further related, citing court papers
filed by USA Discounters.

           About USA Discounters

USA Discounters, Ltd., was founded in May 1991. In the City of
Norfolk, Virginia, under the name USA Furniture Discounters, Ltd.
It sold goods through two groups of stores -- one group of
specialty retail stores operating under the "USA Living" brand,
typically in standalone locations, and seven additional retail
stores operating under the "Fletcher's Jewelers" brand, typically
in major shopping malls.

USA Discounters, Ltd., and two affiliates sought Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection (Bankr. D. Del. Lead Case No. 15-11755) on
Aug. 24, 2015, to wind down the business.

The Debtors tapped Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP and Klee,
Tuchin, Bogdanoff & Stern LLP as attorneys, and Kurtzman Carson
Consultants, LLC, as claims and noticing agent.

USA Discounters Ltd. disclosed total assets of $97,490,455 plus an
undetermined amount and total liabilities of $63,011,206 plus an
undetermined amount.

VIRGIN ISLANDS WAPA: Moody's Lowers Rating on Electric Bonds to B1
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has downgraded the Virgin Islands Water
and Power Authority's (VI WAPA) senior electric system revenue bond
rating to B1 from Ba2 and the electric system subordinated revenue
bond rating to B2 from Ba3.  The rating outlook is negative.  This
rating action concludes the rating review for downgrade that was
initiated on March 31, 2016, and continued on June 2, 2016.

As of June 30, 2016, the authority had approximately $127 million
in electric system revenue bonds outstanding and approximately $100
million in subordinated electric system revenue bonds.

The rating action is prompted by growing pressure on VI WAPA's
financial longer-term prospects in light of the authority's direct
exposure to economic stresses in the U.S. Virgin Islands and an
inability to disconnect itself from local economic conditions, from
the slow albeit improved payment pattern of governmental customers
and a very high adjusted net pension liability (around $220
million).  The amount of this pension liability, which approximates
VI WAPA's funded debt, was disclosed for the first time in the
Authority's 2015 financials, which were recently published.

The rating action also considers the authority's weak liquidity
management characterized by the failure to extend drawn credit
lines of around $23 million until their due date end of June 2016.
Moody's understands that FirstBank Puerto Rico has extended its
line of credit for one year and VI WAPA is still in negotiations
with Banco Popular de Puerto Rico to extend the credit lines in the
coming days.  VI WAPA has historically relied on these credit lines
to manage working capital and governmental receivables pressure.
Should all of VI WAPA's lines of credit be extended, as we
anticipate, undrawn availability under the lines is limited.
Moreover, we estimate that VI WAPA currently has around $26 million
of cash on balance sheet including the proceeds from the $13
million Rural Utilities Services (RUS) loan.  VI WAPA's liquidity
profile is further pressured by the need to repay its fuel
supplier, Trafigura Trading LLC, past due amounts that approximate
$25 million.  While Moody's expectation is that these amounts will
be paid in small increments over an intermediate time frame, the
repayment of these obligations add stress to the liquidity
profile.

A positive for bondholders is that debt service on the senior lien
and subordinated bonds benefits from a fully funded debt service
fund and a fully funded debt service reserve fund which cover debt
service by around 1.6 times.  Moreover, Moody's acknowledges the
potential benefit to VI WAPA's credit quality from the incremental
revenue growth if the Public Services Commission of the Virgin
Islands (PSC) completes the pending base rate hearing process as
well as an additional hearing of a previously denied emergency rate
case filing.  However, such revenue increases, should they occur,
need to translate into a sustained improvement in liquidity and
financial metrics.  As a point of reference, while PSC approved
rate increases have strengthened the Authority's financial
performance, Moody's calculates that its fixed charge coverage
ratio was below 1.0x for four of the past five years.

VI WAPA's rating recognizes the challenges of operating within an
island economy with relatively sluggish growth, high unemployment
and a narrow local economy that is dependent on discretionary
tourism, and the ongoing struggle of the authority to cover its
cost base and operate its facilities efficiently given significant
excess capacity, the age of its equipment and high retail rates.
The rating acknowledges the regulatory support the utility has
received as it has progressed toward the near completion of a
project to convert its base-load generation resources from
oil-fueled to tri-fueled (initially propane), thereby lowering the
cost of electricity for Virgin Islands ratepayers while reducing
its deferred fuel balances.  Moody's views the completion of this
project as an important milestone towards strengthening VI WAPA's
long-term credit quality.  That said, the conversion project, while
likely to be completed this year, has been delayed and is
substantially more costly than originally contemplated.  VI WAPA
faces a $150 million obligation to the contractor VITOL that will
amortize over 10 years starting after the completion of the
LPG/propane-based power generation project later this year.

Rating Outlook

The negative rating outlook reflects the authority's weak liquidity
profile, which Moody's believes will persist, assuming its existing
credit facilities are refinanced, in the absence of incremental
revenue growth and better liquidity management.

Factors that Could Lead to an Upgrade

A rating upgrade is currently unlikely. However the outlook could
be stabilized in case of:

  Successful refinancing of all outstanding credit lines
  Rate increases supporting improved cost recovery and translating

   into better liquidity and the improvement of financial metrics
   with Moody's total fixed charge coverage ratio improving to
   1.0x

Factors that Could Lead to a Downgrade

  Further deterioration in VI WAPA's liquidity profile and
   financial metrics which threaten the long-term sustainability
   of the authority

Legal Security

VI WAPA's senior lien electric system revenue bonds are secured by
a pledge of net electric revenues and certain other funds as
defined in the bond resolution (water revenues are not pledged).
The electric system revenue bonds have a rate covenant of 1.25x and
a debt service fund requirement equal to the lesser of (i) 10% of
aggregate bond proceeds, (ii) maximum aggregate annual debt service
or (iii) 125% average aggregate annual debt service.

Use of Proceeds
Not applicable.

Obligor Profile

VIWAPA is an independent governmental agency of the U.S Virgin
Islands and was created in 1964.  Its electric system is a monopoly
provider of electric service to nearly 55,000 customers on St.
Thomas, St. Croix, St. John, Water Island and Hassel Island.  Its
water system, although not a virtual monopoly provider, provides
water service to more than 12,000 customers. Unlike the majority of
publicly owned entities, the rates of both the electric and water
systems are regulated by the PSC.  The water and the electric
system are independently financed with separate liens on net
revenues securing the outstanding debt of each system.  Moody's
only rates debt of the electric system and the authority provides
separate accounting for each system.

[*] Law Firm Mergers Keep Pace with 2015's Record
-------------------------------------------------
Elizabeth Olson, writing for The New York Times' DealBook, reported
that law firm mergers are keeping pace with 2015's record, with a
total of 48 deals announced through the end of June, according to
figures from Altman Weil MergerLine.

According to The DealBook, most of the activity involved smaller
firms, which are increasingly stressed as they compete with others
for less work.  New York and Florida were notably busy markets for
law firm combinations, the DealBook said.

Over all last year, there were 91 law firm mergers, a number that
could be exceeded this year as firms continue to look for ways to
flourish, or just to keep afloat, the DealBook related.

"Small firms are increasingly vulnerable in the current market,"
Eric A. Seeger, a principal at Altman Weil, a legal consulting firm
in Newtown Square, Pa., told the DealBook.  "There's more
competition for less work, and small firms need a strategy to avoid
being squeezed out.  That may mean building a bigger platform or
being acquired by a firm that already has a broader foundation."

In the second quarter of 2016, 93 percent of the combinations
involved firms with fewer than 25 lawyers, the report related.
Almost half of the acquirers had 50 or fewer lawyers and focused on
absorbing firms in the same city or state, the report said.

The largest deal in the last three months was the merger of Husch
Blackwell, which is based in Kansas City, Mo., and has 560 lawyers,
with Whyte Hirschboeck Dudek, based in Milwaukee and with 144
lawyers, for an overall head count of more than 700 lawyers, the
report further related.

New York City proved to be a deal breeding ground, DealBook notes,
pointing out the acquisition of Greenspoon Marder, a 172-lawyer
firm with headquarters in Florida, of Jacob Medinger & Finnegan, a
nine-person firm in Manhattan.  Boies Schiller, a New York
litigation powerhouse, added a specialist in white-collar
litigation, O'Shea Partners, the report also noted.  Wilson Elser
combined with Jankoff & Gabe, a three-lawyer firm in the city, the
report added.

Philadelphia-based law firms also were busy on the acquisition
front, the report said, pointing to Cozen O'Connor's addition of
Feldman Gale, a 15-lawyer intellectual property litigation firm in
Miami.  Fox Rothschild picked up Rothenberg Hyett Eisen & Lang, a
three-lawyer firm in Boca Raton, Fla., and a second three-lawyer
firm, Myers Kenney, in San Francisco, the report further noted.

Also, in late June, Blank Rome, a large Philadelphia firm that this
year acquired the former Washington firm Dickstein Shapiro, said it
was adding Phillips Lerner, a four-lawyer family law firm in Los
Angeles, the report added.


[*] Myers Earns Certified Turnaround Professional Certification
---------------------------------------------------------------
EisnerAmper LLP on July 6 disclosed that Joseph Myers, a Director
in the firm's Bankruptcy and Restructuring Group in Iselin, New
Jersey, has been awarded the prestigious designation of Certified
Turnaround Professional (CTP) by the Turnaround Management
Association.  Mr. Myers becomes just the eleventh CTP in New Jersey
and joins three other EisnerAmper professionals -- Allen Wilen,
CTP, Tom Buck, CTP, and Anthony Calascibetta CTP -- in this very
select company.

In making the announcement, Allen Wilen, partner-in-charge of
EisnerAmper's Bankruptcy and Restructuring Group said, "I
congratulate Joe on this important achievement.  Having one, let
alone four, CTPs on our team is a differentiating factor that helps
make EisnerAmper's Bankruptcy and Restructuring Group a clear
choice for clients seeking the very highest level of expertise and
service."

In an otherwise unregulated profession, the CTP designation is an
highly valued and objective measure of a person's experience,
knowledge, and integrity that is deemed to be required to conduct
corporate renewal work.

The CTP designation recognizes a proven track record and years of
experience in working with companies or large business units that
are in financial crisis.  To attain the certification candidates
must hold, or have held, positions such as Chief Restructuring
Officer, Turnaround Team Leader, or Interim Manager; and they must
demonstrate substantial knowledge and grasp of the legal,
financial, and management aspects of a turnaround.

[*] Total Bankruptcy Filings Decline in First Half of 2016
----------------------------------------------------------
The American Bankruptcy Institute reported that total bankruptcy
filings declined 6 percent during the first six months of 2016.

Filings from Jan. 1 through June 30, 2016 declined to 398,495,
compared to 422,914 total filings during the same period a year
ago.  Noncommercial filings declined 7 percent from 407,843 in the
first half of 2015 to 379,025 in the first half of this year.

Total commercial filings, however, through June 30 this year
increased 29 percent to 19,740 compared to 15,071 during the first
half of 2015.

Commercial chapter 11 filings also climbed during the first half of
2016 as the 3,220 filings represented a 25 percent increase over
the 2,575 commercial chapter 11 filings during the first six months
of 2015.

In June, total commercial filings reached 3,294, a 35 percent
increase compared to 2,442 filings in June 2015. Total
noncommercial filings in June, 62,990, represented a 7 percent
decline from 67,330 in June 2015.

"Commercial chapter 11 filings registered a 36 percent increase, as
the 366 commercial chapter 11 filings in June 2015 climbed to 499
in June 2016.

There were 66,284 total bankruptcy filings in June this year, a 5
percent drop from 69,772 in June 2015.

"As economic challenges continue to weigh on the balance sheets of
struggling companies, especially those in energy and retail, more
businesses are seeking the financial fresh start of bankruptcy,"
said ABI Executive Director Samuel J. Gerdano.  "Commercial
bankruptcy filings for 2016 will likely total close to 40,000."

The average nationwide per capita bankruptcy-filing rate in June
was 2.56 (total filings per 1,000 per population); the same as the
first five months of 2016. There were 2,210 average total filings
per day in June 2016, a 5 percent decrease from 2,326 per day in
June 2015.

States with the highest per capita filing rate (total filings per
1,000 population) through the first six months of 2016 include:
Tennessee (5.63); Alabama (5.37); Georgia (4.65); Illinois (4.29);
and Utah (4.15.)

                            *********

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.
