ADVANCED MICRO: Moody's Affirms Caa1 Corporate Family Rating
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirms Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.'s
Caa1 corporate family rating and the Caa2 rating on the senior
unsecured notes, and revised the rating outlook to positive from
negative. The speculative grade liquidity rating is upgraded to
SGL-2 from SGL-3.

The positive outlook reflects AMD's prospects for improved
operating performance and cash generation as well as the improved
product portfolio enabling the company to compete in the current
discrete GPUs (graphics processing unit), APUs (application process
units), x86 and ARM CPUs (central processing unit) market. Moody's
said, "Although we expect ongoing revenue declines and operating
losses in its PC-related business (microprocessors and graphics
chips), the growing EESC (enterprise, embedded, and semi-custom)
business supported by the reported design wins, we project break
even to modest profitability beginning in the second half of
2016."

AMD's proposed equity offering and senior unsecured convertible
debt issuance, with proceeds used to repay debt, will also bolster
the company's balance sheet, reduce interest expense, and improve
AMD's term structure of debt. As part of the transaction, Moody's
expects the company will significantly reduce a combination of
borrowings under its asset based lending facility as well as senior
unsecured notes.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Caa1 corporate family rating reflects AMD's challenges in
achieving and sustaining profitability across its product portfolio
where it competes with stronger players such as Intel and Nvidia.
Moody's said, "Despite these ongoing competitive challenges, AMD
has made progress over the last few quarters in terms of design
wins and market share gains, which we believe will contribute to
improved performance over the next year, including operating
profitability and modestly positive free cash flow. We project
steady to slightly higher revenue in 2016 and 2017 with operating
profit developing over the next year as profitable growth in the
semi-custom business offsets the moderating losses in the company's
personal computer related microprocessor and graphics chip segment.
Given the previously reported three large design wins of
approximately $1.5 billion over three to four years, it should
enable the company to modestly build revenue beginning in the
second half of 2016 and offset losses in the rest of its business.
AMD has good liquidity with $957 million of cash and marketable
securities as of June 25, 2016 (88% held domestically)."

AMD's SGL-2 rating reflects its improving liquidity position. AMD
reported $957 million of cash and marketable securities as of June
25, 2016 (88% held domestically), up from $785 million at December
26, 2015. The increase in cash is primarily contributed by the
proceeds of approximately $351 million from the sale of the equity
interests in the ATMP JV, and the formation of the China JV with
Tianjin Haiguang Advanced Technology Investment Co., Ltd. (THATIC),
in which AMD licensed certain IP to the JV for approximately $293
million in license fees over several years. AMD also maintains a
$500 million asset based revolving credit facility (ABL) under
which $226 million was drawn as of June 25, 2016, but will be fully
repaid following the proposed convertible debt issuance. With cash
balances, access to the ABL, and no material debt maturities until
May 2019, AMD has solid liquidity. As part of the Wafer Supply
Agreement with GLOBALFOUNDRIES announced on August 31, 2016, AMD
will make four $25 million payments beginning in the fourth quarter
of 2016 through third quarter of 2017. Moody's said, "We expect
AMD's cash balance in the first half of 2017 to be at least $900
million.”

Ratings affirmation:

   -- Corporate family rating at Caa1

   -- Probability of default rating at Caa1-PD

   -- $600 million senior unsecured notes due 2019 at Caa2 (LGD4)

   -- $450 million senior unsecured notes due 2020 at Caa2 (LGD4)

   -- $475 million senior unsecured notes due 2022 at Caa2 (LGD4)

   -- $500 million senior unsecured notes due 2024 at Caa2 (LGD4)

Ratings upgraded:

   -- Speculative grade liquidity rating to SGL-2 from SGL-3

Outlook:

   -- Changed to positive from negative

The rating could be upgraded if AMD is able to sustain revenue
growth with Moody's adjusted operating margins above 4%, while
achieving positive free cash flow and maintaining cash and liquid
investments in excess of $1 billion.

The rating could be downgraded if AMD's cash and liquid investments
are likely to drop below $600 million (without raising additional
debt) or if the company is unlikely to achieve breakeven operating
profit and free cash flow over the next year.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Semiconductor
Industry Methodology published in December 2015.

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) is a fabless semiconductor
company that specializes in microprocessors, graphics processing
units and semi-custom and embedded processors. Moody's said, "We
expect AMD will generate about $4 billion of revenue over the next
year."


AEMETIS INC: Sues EdenIQ Over Breach of Merger Agreement
--------------------------------------------------------
Aemetis, Inc., has filed a suit against EdenIQ, Inc., to require
EdenIQ to fully perform its obligations under a merger agreement.

On April 29, 2016, Aemetis and EdenIQ entered into the Agreement
and Plan of Merger providing for the acquisition of all outstanding
shares of EdenIQ by the Company.  As required by the Merger
Agreement, majority shareholder approval was obtained by EdenIQ
from its shareholders.

On July 22, 2016, the Company provided notice to EdenIQ that EdenIQ
had breached the Merger Agreement by failing to also request and
obtain from its shareholders an election of stock and cash
consideration required to be delivered to the Company two days
prior to closing of the Merger Agreement.

On Aug. 29, 2016, the Company received a notice from EdenIQ that
purported to terminate the Merger Agreement.  The Company believes
that the notice is not effective due to the prior breach of the
Merger Agreement by EdenIQ.

AIR CANADA: Moody's Rates New Secured Debt Issues 'Ba3'
-------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned Ba3 first lien senior secured
ratings to Air Canada's proposed US$720 million Term Loan B due
2023 and its proposed US$300 million first lien senior secured
revolving credit facility. Air Canada's B1 corporate family, B1-PD
probability of default and SGL-2 speculative grade liquidity
ratings remain unchanged. The ratings outlook remains positive.

Assignments:

   Issuer: Air Canada

   -- Senior Secured Bank Credit Facility, Assigned Ba3(LGD3)

Proceeds from the new debt issues, and C$300 million in additional
secured debt, will be used to refinance Air Canada's existing
US$300M first lien Term Loan B; its US$400M 6.75% first lien senior
secured notes; its C$300M 7.625% first lien senior secured notes;
and its US$300M 8.75% second lien senior secured notes. The
associated Ba3 ratings on the existing first lien secured debt
issues and the B2 rating on the second lien secured debt will be
withdrawn if the new transaction closes and the existing debt is
fully repaid. The new debt will be secured by a diverse collateral
package that includes, certain owned real property, certain Pacific
routes and related gate leaseholds and landing slots, landing slots
at London's Heathrow, New York's LaGuardia and Washington's Reagan
airports and ground equipment. The engines and accounts receivable
currently pledged as collateral under the existing debt, will not
be part of the new collateral package for the proposed debt.

RATINGS RATIONALE

"Air Canada's B1 corporate family rating (CFR) primarily reflects
its strong market position in the duopolistic Canadian market, our
expectation that adjusted debt/EBITDA will remain around 4x, aided
by low fuel prices and strong load factors even while rapidly
increasing capacity," Moody's said. This is offset by high (but
improving) operating costs as a legacy carrier and our expectation
that its substantial capital commitments will result in negative
free cash flow generation over the next few years, though this
could be mitigated by sale leaseback transactions that are planned
by the airline. The rating also reflects foreign exchange
volatility, exposure to fuel costs and the risk of market capacity
additions exceeding demand.

The positive outlook balances Moody's expectation that Air Canada
could maintain leverage below 4x against a large capital spend
program (aircraft order book will likely be funded largely with new
debt), market capacity additions and economic headwinds in Canada.

An upgrade could occur if Air Canada effectively executes its
expansion plans and cost reduction initiatives while sustaining
adjusted Debt/EBITDA below 4x and EBIT/Interest above 2.5x.
Downward rating pressure could occur if Air Canada sustains
adjusted Debt/EBITDA above 5x and EBIT/Interest towards 1.5x.
Deterioration in liquidity could also cause a downgrade.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global
Passenger Airlines published in May 2012.


ALL PHASE STEEL: Has Until Sept. 30 to Use Cash Collateral
----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Julie A. Manning of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Connecticut authorized All Phase Steel Works, LLC, to
use cash collateral.

The Debtor has the following secured creditor claims:

     (1) The Internal Revenue Service, which contends that it is
owed $895,000.  The IRS filed liens prepetition on the Debtor's
assets for withholding taxes and other federal taxes owed.

     (2) CapCall LLC, which contends that it is owed $294,067.

credit facility secured by liens and/or security interests in

assets, equivalent in nature, priority and extent to their
respective liens and security interests in the pre-petition
collateral and the proceeds and products thereof, subject to the
Carve-Out.

the Debtor's compliance by reasonable access to the Debtor's books
and records.

earlier of:

     (a) Sept. 30, 2016; or

to comply with the terms, conditions or provisions of the Court's
Order.

The Carve-Out consists of:

     (a) the allowed administrative claims of attorneys and other
professionals retained by the Debtor in the Case, in the aggregate
amount of $35,000.00;

     (b) amounts payable pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Section 1930(a)(6);
and

     (c) any wages owed for the period covered by the Court's
Order.

A further hearing on the continued use of cash collateral is
scheduled on Sept. 27, 2016 at 3:00 p.m.  The deadline for the
filing of objections to the continued use of cash collateral is set

the Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Case Nos. 16-20060 and

AUTOMART INC: Wants Until Jan. 31 to Solicit Plan Acceptances

September 2, 2016.  The Debtor currently has until December 2, 2016
to solicit acceptances to its plan.

its secured creditors and others.  The Debtor believes that the
lone substantive objector will be West Marine, Inc.  The Debtor
hopes to use the additional time resulting from the requested
extension to engage West Marine in discussions, which ideally will
lead to a consensual plan and perhaps even a resolution of the
litigation between them.  The Debtor contends that it does not want
to be under the threat of an impending plan by West Marine.

BRIDGELINE DIGITAL: Needs to Restructure Debt to Support Operations
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Bridgeline Digital, Inc., filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q,
disclosing a net loss of $2.03 million on $3.70 million of total
net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with
a net loss of $1.11 million on $4.88 of total net revenue for the
same period last year.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2016, showed $17.30 million
in total assets, $9.06 million in total liabilities, and a
stockholders' equity of $8.24 million.

The Company has made several measures intended to improve its
financial viability.  Beginning in the second half of fiscal 2015,
the Company initiated a restructuring plan that included a
reduction of workforce and office space, which significantly
reduced operating expenses.  The restructuring plan has continued
through June 2016, with a total of $795 charged to restructuring
expense in the nine months ended June 30, 2016.
  
The Company believes that cash generated from operations, the sale
of common stock, the debt restructuring, and expense reductions
will be sufficient to fund the Company's working capital and
capital expenditure needs in the foreseeable future.  Management
plans to contain operating expenses and remain fiscally
responsible, however, there can be no assurances that these
financial measures will be sufficient enough to compensate for any
shortfalls in revenues.  In addition, in order to sustain
operations and cash flows, the Company must be successful in
closing the new bank credit line, as well as, convert a significant
portion of the convertible debt holders to equity. If the Company
is not successful with its debt restructuring plan then it will not
have sufficient cash flows to meet operations and it will have to
renegotiate outstanding debt lines or negotiate new debt
instruments in order to meet cash flow expectations.  There are no
assurances that existing debt holders will be willing or able to
renegotiate new terms or that new debt instruments will be
available.  Such potential adverse events could create substantial
doubts about the Company's ability to fund operations and interrupt
its normal course of business.

CNC FABRICATION: Seeks Authorization to Use Cash Collateral
-----------------------------------------------------------
CNC Fabrication and Maintenance Inc. asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Northern District of Texas for authorization to use cash
collateral.

The Debtor relates that it is indebted to:

     (1) National Bank of Texas, for three loans totaling
approximately $100,000, which are secured by titles to vehicles.

     (2) Motion Industries, in the approximate amount of $10,808,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, charges, fees and expenses,
pursuant to an Abstract of Judgment, dated May 1, 2013.

     (3) Purvis Industries, in the amount of $53,000, pursuant to a
default judgment.  Purvis Industries has a security interest in a
horizontal blending system.  The Debtor requested Purvis Industries
to repossess its collateral, which has a fair market value of
$140,000.

     (4) Ahern Rentals, in the amount of $42,969, and Sunstate
Rentals, in the amount of $24,800, for equipment that was used in
the construction of the Brookline property.  The creditors are
entitled to a mechanics and materialmen's lien against the
Brookline property.

     (5) By the Debtor's information and belief, Superior Property
Management, in the approximate amount of $9,295, pursuant to a
judgment regarding the lease of employee housing.  The creditor may
have a security interest in all of the Debtor's property, if the
judgment is abstracted.

     (6) Ingram Concrete, Border States Electric, Gray Industrial
Electric, and C&R Sales are entitled to a mechanic's and
materialmen's lien against the Brookline property as they provided
materials, equipment and labor on the Brookline project.

     (7) Johnson County Tax Assessor Collector, in the amount of
$7,609.56, plus accrued and unpaid interest, charges, fees and
expenses.  The creditor is secured by a statutory business personal
property tax lien on substantially all of the Debtor's personal
property.

The Debtor contends that an immediate and critical need exists for
the use of cash collateral, in order to continue its business
operations.  The Debtor further contends that without the use of
cash collateral, it will not be able to pay its payroll and other
direct operating expenses or obtain goods and services needed to
carry on its business.

The Debtor tells the Court that the interest of the secured parties
are adequately protected by the fact that they will retain their
liens and that the Debtor's projected revenue exceeds its expenses
by a safe margin.  The Debtor further tells the Court that it is
confident that it can successfully reorganize is a relatively short
time.

COINSTAR LLC: Moody's Assigns B3 Corporate Family Rating
--------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B2 Corporate Family Rating and
B2-PD Probability of Default Rating ("PDR") to Coinstar, LLC
("Coinstar"). Moody's also assigned B1 ratings to the company's
proposed $535 million first lien term loan and $75 million first
lien revolver, as well as a Caa1 rating to the proposed $135
million second lien term loan. The outlook is stable.

Proceeds of the proposed transaction combined with new sponsor
equity will be used to fund the acquisition of the business by
Apollo Global Management, LLC ("Apollo"). In July, Apollo entered
into a definitive agreement to acquire Outerwall Inc. ("Outerwall")
(Ba3, Ratings Under Review), a publicly traded company with 3
primary business segments that include Redbox, Coinstar, and ecoATM
for approximately $1.7 billion. Upon close of the acquisition, and
after a short transition period, it is expected that Coinstar will
operate as a separate company with no guarantees or support
provided by the other Outerwall segments. The purchase of the
Coinstar business has been valued at just under $1 billion and
Moody's estimates pro-forma leverage for the financing in the low-5
times range.

Moody's took the following rating actions today:

   Issuer: Coinstar LLC

   -- Corporate Family Rating, Assigned at B2

   -- Probability of Default Rating, Assigned at B2-PD

   -- $75 million Senior Secured 1st Lien Revolving Credit
      Facility due 2021, Assigned at B1 (LGD3)

   -- $535 million Senior Secured 1st Lien Term Loan due 2023,
      Assigned at B1 (LGD3)

   -- $135 million Senior Secured 2nd Lien Term Loan due 2024,
      Assigned at Caa1 (LGD5)

Outlook, Assigned at Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

Coinstar's B2 CFR reflects the company's high lease adjusted
leverage pro-forma for the proposed buyout by Apollo. The rating
also reflects Coinstar's small scale and limited track record
operating as a standalone entity, as well as its private equity
ownership which Moody's believes enhances the potential for
aggressive financial policies. The company's product offering is
limited (includes only self-service coin counting machines),
however the product has exhibited stable demand over the last few
years despite softening cash usage trends. The rating is supported
by Moody's expectation for continued stable operating performance
and for the company to maintain a good liquidity profile. It is
also supported by Coinstar's reported market position in the space
and its strong EBITDA margins.

Coinstar's liquidity is good, which reflects Moody's expectation
for meaningfully positive free cash over the next 12-18 months.
“As part of the proposed transaction, all cash will be swept
which could result in modest short term borrowings on the proposed
$75 million 1st Lien Revolver, however going forward we do not
expect Coinstar will rely on the facility given the company's
modest capital spending requirements and expected cash flow
generation.” Moody's said. The term loans are not expected to
contain any financial maintenance covenants, but the revolver is
expected to contain a springing net first lien leverage test which
is tested if borrowings on the facility exceed 30% of revolving
commitments. Moody's does not expect the covenant will be
triggered, but anticipates sufficient cushion if it were tested
based on where the covenants are likely to be set.

The B1 ratings assigned to Coinstar's proposed 1st lien term loan
and revolver are one notch higher than the CFR and reflect their
senior position in the capital structure relative other junior
claims including the proposed $135 million 2nd lien term loan
(rated Caa1), operating leases, and trade payables. The 1st lien
facilities have a first priority lien on substantially all assets
of the company including an equity interest in the borrower and
subsidiary guarantors. The 2nd lien term loan has a 2nd priority
lien on the same collateral.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation for modest topline
growth and slightly improving EBITDA margins, combined with
positive free cash flow generation that should result in leverage
in the mid-to-high 4 times range over the next 12-24 months with
interest coverage (EBITA/Interest Expense) in the mid-2 times
range.

Ratings could be upgraded if solid operating performance results in
leverage sustained below 4.0 times with interest coverage above 2.5
times. It would also require consistent positive free cash flow and
an expectation that financial policies will support metrics
sustained at these levels.

Ratings could be downgraded if leverage trends towards 6.0 times as
a result of weaker than anticipated operating performance or overly
aggressive financial policies. Interest coverage approaching 1.5
times or significant declines in free cash flow could also result
in a downgrade.

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

Coinstar LLC owns and operates over 20,000 fully automated
self-service coin counting kiosks across the U.S., Canada, Ireland,
and the U.K. and generated revenue of approximately $325 million
for the LTM period ending June 30, 2016. The business is currently
part of Outerwall, Inc., but upon close of the proposed transaction
Coinstar will be owned by Apollo Global Management, LLC.

The Debtors tell the Court that they had been working diligently to
prepare their disclosure statement and plan of reorganization.
They further tell the Court that due to some calculations that are

CROWN AMERICAS: Moody's Rates New $350MM Unsecured Notes 'Ba3'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a Ba3 rating to the $350 million
Senior Unsecured Notes due 2026 of Crown Americas LLC and a Ba2
rating to the EUR310 million Senior Unsecured Notes due 2024 of
Crown European Holdings SA, both are subsidiaries of Crown
Holdings, Inc. ("Crown"). The company's Ba2 corporate family
rating, Ba2-PD probability of default rating and other instrument
ratings were unchanged (see rating detail below). The Ba2 rating
for the Senior Unsecured Notes at Crown European Holdings SA is one
notch higher than the Ba3 rating for the Senior Unsecured Notes at
Crown Americas LLC because the former will be unconditionally
guaranteed on an unsecured basis by US domestic and certain foreign
subsidiaries while the latter is guaranteed only by US domestic
subsidiaries. The proceeds from the new senior notes, along with
$10 million cash from the balance sheet, will be used to partially
repay term loan A as well as pay fees and expenses related to the
transaction. The ratings outlook is stable.

Moody's took the following actions:

   Crown Holdings, Inc.

   -- Unchanged Corporate Family Rating, Ba2

   -- Unchanged Probability of Default Rating, Ba2-PD

   -- Unchanged Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, SGL-2

   Crown Americas LLC

   -- Unchanged $450 million Senior Secured US Revolving Credit

      (LGD3)

   Crown Metal Packaging Canada LP

   -- Unchanged $50 million Canadian Revolving Credit Facility due

      December 2018, Baa3 (LGD 2)

The ratings outlook is stable.

The ratings are subject to the receipt and review of final
documentation.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Crown's Ba2 Corporate Family Rating reflects the company's position
in an oligopolistic industry, relatively stable end markets and
improved profitability. The rating is also supported by the high
percentage of business under contract with strong raw material cost
passthrough provisions, higher margin growth projects in emerging
markets and good liquidity. Crown's broad geographic exposure,
including a high percentage of sales from faster growing emerging
markets, is both a benefit and a source of some potential
volatility.

The rating is constrained by the company's concentration of sales,
exposure to weak international markets, especially Europe, and
risks inherent in its strategy to grow in emerging markets. The
rating is also constrained by the ongoing asbestos liability and
the integration risk of two recent, sizeable acquisitions. The
company has exposure to segments which can be affected by weather
and crop harvests and to mature industry sectors like carbonated
soft drinks. Pro forma for the Empaque acquisition, approximately
59% of sales come from the sale of beverage cans in 2015. All of
Crown's sales are from metal packaging, which may be subject to
substitution with other substrates in certain markets depending on
relative pricing and new technologies.

The ratings outlook is stable. The stable outlook reflects an
expectation that Crown will continue to benefit from the EMPAQUE
acquisition and various productivity and expansion initiatives and
dedicate free cash flow to debt reduction.

The ratings could be downgraded if Crown fails to improve credit
metrics over the intermediate term, there is a deterioration in the
cushion under existing financial covenants, and/or a deterioration
in the competitive or operating environment. Additionally, a
significant acquisition or change in the asbestos liability could
also trigger a downgrade. Specifically, the rating could be
downgraded if adjusted debt-to-EBITDA remained above 4.5 times,
EBITDA interest coverage remained below 4.5 times and/or funds from
operations to debt remained below 14%.

The ratings could be upgraded if Crown achieves a sustainable
improvement in credit metrics within the context of a stable
operating and competitive environment and maintains good liquidity
including sufficient cushion under existing covenants.
Specifically, the ratings could be upgraded if adjusted
debt-to-EBITDA declines to below 4 times, EBITDA interest coverage
improves to over 5.5 times, the EBIT margin remains in the double
digits, and funds from operations to total debt improves to over
17%.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Packaging
Manufacturers: Metal, Glass, and Plastic Containers published in
September 2015.

Crown Holdings, Inc., headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania,
is a global manufacturer of steel and aluminum containers for food,
beverage, and consumer products. Revenues for the twelve months
ended June 30, 2016 were approximately $8.5 billion.


DAKOTA PLAINS: Obtains Forbearance Extension Until Sept. 15
-----------------------------------------------------------
Dakota Plains Holdings, Inc., and certain of its subsidiaries
entered into an amendment No. 2 to Forbearance Agreement to amend
the Forbearance Agreement dated as of May 3, 2016, by and among
Dakota Plains Transloading, LLC, Dakota Plains Sand, LLC, Dakota
Plains Marketing, LLC, the Company, DPTS Marketing LLC, Dakota
Petroleum Transport Solutions, LLC and DPTS Sand, LLC, the lenders
from time to time party thereto, and SunTrust Bank, as
administrative agent for the Lenders.

As disclosed in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the amendment, among other things, amends the Existing
Forbearance Agreement to extend the forbearance period until
Sept. 15, 2016, and the Company agrees to cooperate with the
financial or restructuring advisor of the Administrative Agent in
the performance of its duties.

                     About Dakota Plains

Headquartered in Wayzata, Minnesota, Dakota Plains Holdings, Inc.,
is an integrated midstream energy company operating the Pioneer
Terminal, with services that include outbound crude oil storage,
logistics and rail transportation and inbound fracturing sand
logistics.  The Pioneer Terminal is located in Mountrail County,
North Dakota, where it is uniquely positioned to exploit
opportunities in the heart of the Bakken and Three Forks plays of
the Williston Basin.  The Williston Basin of North Dakota and
Montana is the largest onshore crude oil production source in North
America where the lack of available pipeline capacity provides a
surplus of crude oil available for the core business of the
Company.  Its frac sand business provides services for UNIMIN
Corporation, a leading producer of quartz proppant and the largest
supplier of frac sand to exploration and production operating
companies in the Williston Basin.

Dakota Plains reported a net loss of $24.96 million in 2015
following net income of $2.25 million in 2014.  As of June 30,
2016, Dakota Plains had $61.6 million in total assets, $93.1
million in total liabilities and a stockholders' deficit of $31.5
million.

"The Company is focused on increasing the throughput and reducing
the expenses at the transloading facility, but the decline in crude
oil prices and contraction of the price spread between Brent and
WTI has materially reduced the revenues that the Company is able to
generate from its transloading operations, which, in turn, has
negatively affected the Company's working capital and income (loss)
from operations.  The potential for future crude oil prices to
remain at their current low levels raises substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to meet its obligations when they come due
and continue as a going concern," the Company stated in its June
30, 2016, quarterly report.


DAVID PAUL PELCIC: Sept. 26 Plan Confirmation Hearing
-----------------------------------------------------
David Paul and Collette Nicole Pelcic filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona an amended disclosure
statement explaining their amended plan of reorganization, which
proposes that Holders of Allowed Class IV General Unsecured Claims
will be paid the sum of $4,500 over five years.

The Debtors will make the payments to the holders of Allowed Class
IV Claims on the first Business Day that occurs 11 months after the
Effective Date and every year thereafter for four years based upon
each Class IV Claim’s pro rata share of potential unsecured
claims. Such payments shall be as follows: (i) Year One - $900;
(ii) Year Two - $900; (iii) Year Three - $900; (iv) Year Four -
$900; and (v) Year Five - $900.  No interest will accrue or be paid
to the holders of the Allowed Class IV Claims. If a Class IV Claim
is not an Allowed Claim prior to 30 days after the Effective Date,
the Class IV Claim holder will receive payment on the one year
payment date that falls after its Class IV Claim becomes an Allowed
Claim.  Class IV is impaired.

The Plan will be funded from the Debtors' post-confirmation income
and from the sale of the Residence.  The Debtors have a combined
average monthly income of $7,901.88 and expenses of $6737.64.
Accordingly, the Debtors' monthly net income is $1,164.24.

The Troubled Company Reporter previously reported that the Pelcics
on August 9 received court
approval of the disclosure statement, allowing them to begin
soliciting votes from creditors for their Chapter 11 plan of
reorganization.

The order, issued by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Arizona, set a September 19 deadline for creditors to cast their
votes.  The Debtors are required to file a ballot report by
September 21.

The court will consider confirmation of the plan on September 26,
at 11:00 a.m.  The hearing will take place at Courtroom 603, 6th
Floor, 230 N. First Avenue, Phoenix, Arizona.

Objections to the restructuring plan are due by September 19.

2016, is available at http://bankrupt.com/misc/15-14629-133.pdf

DELL INC: Moody's Hikes Corporate Family Rating to Ba1
------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service upgraded Dell Inc.'s corporate family and
probability of default ratings ("CFR" and "PDR", respectively) to
Ba1 and Ba1-PD from Ba2 and Ba2-PD, respectively, following the
close of Dell's acquisition of EMC Corporation ("EMC"). Moody's
also upgraded Dell Inc.'s unsecured notes to Ba2 from Ba3. These
actions conclude the review for upgrade initiated on October 12,
2015 following Dell's announcement that it signed a definitive
agreement to acquire EMC for $24.05 per share in cash in addition
to tracking stock linked to a portion of EMC's economic interest in
the VMware, Inc. The rating outlook is stable.

In addition, Moody's changed the provisional (P)Baa3 ratings on the
senior secured credit facilities (held at Dell International, a
debt issuing subsidiary of Dell Inc., and EMC, as co-issuer) and
first lien notes and (P)Ba2 rating on the unsecured notes, which
were assigned in May and June 2016, to definitive Baa3 ratings and
Ba2 ratings, respectively, in connection with Dell's purchase of
EMC.

Both the secured and unsecured notes were issued at Diamond 1
Finance Corporation ("Diamond 1") and Diamond 2 Finance Corporation
("Diamond 2"). With the closing of the acquisition, Dell
International and EMC, as co-issuers, assumed all of Diamond 1 and
Diamond 2's obligations under these notes. In addition, the ratings
of the credit facilities issued in connection with the Dell LBO in
October 2013 will be withdrawn upon repayment.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The upgrade of the CFR reflects Moody's view that despite the
significant increase in debt and initial leverage, Dell's overall
credit profile will be enhanced with the additional scale of EMC, a
merger that creates the largest private technology company in the
world with projected annual revenues of more than $75 billion.
Moody's believes that Dell and EMC's combined product portfolio of
client, data center, and storage solutions (which includes VMware,
EMC's 81% owned software virtualization subsidiary) will position
Dell to compete effectively in a technology environment shifting to
hybrid cloud computing platforms. While the personal computer
industry will likely continue to see declining unit shipment
volumes over the next several quarters, Moody's anticipates low
single digit market revenue growth for Dell and EMC's server and
storage businesses as enterprises continue to build private cloud
capacity in the data center.

A key driver for the upgrade of the CFR to Ba1 is Michael Dell's
commitment to rapidly de-lever, which Moody's expects will be
driven by net proceeds of at least $8 billion from asset
divestitures (with Dell already announcing sales of its Services
business for over $3 billion and its software unit for an estimated
purchase price of over $2 billion), substantial cost savings and
synergies totaling $2.6 billion, and projected annual free cash
flow nearing $5 billion in calendar year 2017. Similar to what
transpired after the leveraged buyout of Dell in 2013, Moody's
believes that the company will allocate a majority of its cash flow
to debt repayment. Accordingly, Moody's expects that adjusted debt
to EBITDA will decrease to 4x by the end of calendar year 2017 from
about 6x at transaction close.

The Ba1 CFR also incorporates the considerable key man risk
associated with Michael Dell's majority stake and the long term
potential exit of Silver Lake, which may lead to another levering
event. Potential event risk could also arise if Dell is unable to
achieve sustained revenue growth in light of the challenged PC
industry, possible delays with the hardware refresh cycle over the
next year, and the rapidly evolving technology landscape.
Uncertainty over whether the strategic shift to higher margin
enterprise solutions can be achieved organically is a rating
constraint.

The stable outlook is based on Moody's expectation that Dell will
preserve its solid liquidity profile while generating low single
digit revenue growth from its enterprise solutions business with
slightly declining to flat PC revenues through calendar year 2017.
Moody's anticipates that most of the cost synergies will be
achieved over the next year with free cash flow to be used
primarily for debt repayment.

Moody's could upgrade Dell's ratings if the company were to show
sustained annual revenue growth of at least mid-single digits, high
single digit adjusted operating margins, and gross debt to EBITDA
in the mid 2 times range. In addition, financial policies will need
to be very conservative with the risk of a significant levering
event considered remote. The rating could be lowered with sustained
erosion of market share, reported adjusted operating profit margins
lower than 3%, or revenue declines from a contraction of the PC,
server, and storage markets. Also, any indications of a change in
Dell's financial policies, such that gross debt to EBITDA remains
above 4.5 times beyond calendar year 2017 could also pressure the
rating down.

   Issuer: Dell Inc.

   -- Probability of Default Rating, Upgraded to Ba1-PD from Ba2-

DORSEY MOTOR: Wants 60-Day Extension to File Chapter 11 Plan
------------------------------------------------------------
Dorsey Motor Sales, Inc. asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Middle District of Alabama to extend its exclusive period to file a
disclosure statement and plan of reorganization by 60 days.

The Court previously extended the Debtor's exclusive period to file
a chapter 11 plan from June 27, 2016 to September 20, 2016.

The Debtor relates that its attorney has been reviewing the
formulation of a chapter 11 plan of reorganization.  The Debtor
does not believe that a chapter 11 plan of reorganization can be
formulated within the initial period.

The Debtor tells the Court that it has been negotiating a
settlement that was contingent on the sale of its body shop.  The
Debtor further tells the Court that due to heavy storms, a storm
drain under the body shop burst.  The Debtor believes that the City
of Prattville is responsible for the repair of the damage and is in
negotiations with the City of Prattville.  The Debtor relates that
the City of Prattville is presenting the matter at the next City
Counseling Meeting on September 27, 2016.

DTI HOLDCO: Moody's Assigns B2 Corporate Family Rating
------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned DTI Holdco, Inc. ("DTI") a
first-time B2 Corporate Family Rating (CFR) and B2-PD Probability
of Default Rating (PDR). Concurrently, Moody's also assigned a B2
rating to the company's proposed $1.295 billion first lien credit
facility (including a $100 million revolver). The ratings outlook
is stable.

DTI has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Epiq
Systems, Inc. ("Epiq"), a leading provider of outsourced technology
solutions to the legal industry with support functions for
eDiscovery, bankruptcy, and class action administration. The
transaction is subject to shareholder approval and is expected to
close in the fourth quarter of 2016. Moody's currently rates Epiq
B1 (ratings under review), but will withdraw all of its ratings
upon closing of the transaction.

The merger of DTI and Epiq, two similarly-sized companies with
complementary businesses, creates a credible competitor in highly
fragmented and competitive LPO space. Moody's believes that with
greater scale, increased breadth of services and geographic
footprint, the combined entity will be able to serve and attract a
larger customer base and realize cost advantages and efficiencies
while creating value for its clients.

The proceeds from the proposed $1.195 billion first lien term loan
along with new and rollover equity from OMERS Private Equity (OPE)
and Harvest Partners (HP) will be used to refinance all of DTI's
existing debt (excluding capital leases), fund Epiq's go-private
transaction and pay related fees and expenses. At closing, OPE will
own approximately 65% of the pro forma equity, while HP and
management will own the remaining 35%.

The ratings are contingent upon the receipt and review of final
documentation.

Moody's assigned the following ratings to DTI Holdco, Inc.:

   -- Corporate Family Rating, assigned at B2

   -- Probability of Default Rating, assigned at B2-PD

   -- $100 million senior secured first lien revolving credit
      facility due 2021, assigned at B2 (LGD3)

   -- $1.195 billion senior secured first lien term loan due 2023,

      assigned at B2 (LGD3)

   -- Outlook, assigned at Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

DTI's B2 CFR reflects the company's high pro forma debt-to-EBITDA
leverage, estimated at low 6.0 times (Moody's adjusted) as of LTM
June 2016, integration risk associated with combining two large
companies, aggressive growth strategies, and persistent pricing
pressures in the highly fragmented, competitive and labor intensive
legal technology services industry. In the short term, initial cash
outlays will be needed to complete the integration, planned cost
improvements, and synergies; as such, Moody's expects free cash
flow to be less robust in 2016. Moody's also expects DTI will
augment its low single digit organic revenue growth with periodic
acquisitions using incremental debt. DTI's rating is supported by
the combined company's improved competitive position, extended
geographic footprint, and the potential for synergies. DTI stands
to benefit from Epiq's international presence, diverse enterprise
customer base and its largely countercyclical bankruptcy and
settlement administration business, where the long term outlook is
positive. In addition, favorable macro industry dynamics for
eDiscovery segment driven by increasing hosting data volumes and
continued outsourcing of legal services supports Moody's
expectation for stable organic revenue growth over the next 12-18
months.

The stable rating outlook reflects Moody's expectation for low
single digit percentage revenue growth, synergy-driven margin
expansion, and improving credit metrics supported by EBITDA growth
and modest debt repayment. Moody's expects the company will
maintain good liquidity.

The ratings could be downgraded if earnings deteriorate from
failure to smoothly integrate Epiq's operations, particularly if
the company cannot realize planned cost savings and synergy
benefits on a timely fashion, or if revenue growth unexpectedly
declines. The ratings could also be downgraded if DTI's liquidity
deteriorates or if Moody's believes that the company is unlikely to
reduce debt-to-EBITDA (Moody's adjusted) below 6.0 times.

Moody's would consider an upgrade if DTI is able to demonstrate
sustained organic growth and margin expansion, while maintaining
good liquidity with balanced financial policies. Quantitatively,
the ratings could be upgraded if Moody's believes that the company
will maintain debt-to-EBITDA (Moody's adjusted) below 4.5 times and
free cash flow to total debt in mid-to-high single digit
percentages.

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

DTI, based in Atlanta, Georgia, provides legal service solutions,
namely litigation and administrative support for corporations and
law firms in North America, Europe, and Australia. The company
operates in four segments: Legal Solutions ("LS"), Knowledge
Solutions ("KS"), Facilities Management ("FM"), and Court Reporting
("CR").

                       About Elbit Imaging

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

Elbit Imaging reported a loss of NIS 186.15 million on NIS 1.47
million of revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, compared to
profit of NIS 1 billion on NIS 461,000 of revenues for the year
ended Dec. 31, 2014.  As of Dec. 31, 2015, Elbit Imaging had NIS
778.25 million in total assets, NIS 758.96 million in total
liabilities and NIS 19.28 million in shareholders' equity.

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

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

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


ELRAY RESOURCES: Insufficient Revenues Raise Going Concern Doubt
----------------------------------------------------------------
Elray Resources, Inc., filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q,
disclosing a net loss of $16,199 on $1.70 million of revenue for
the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared with a net loss of
$378,034 on $483,372 of revenue for the same period last year.

The Company's balance sheet at June 30, 2016, showed $2.18 million
in total assets, $12.51 million in total liabilities, and a
stockholders' deficit of $10.32 million.  The Company had $295,459
in cash at June 30, 2016.

The Company's cash provided by operating activities for the six
months ended June 30, 2016 was $251,450 compared to cash used in
operating of $30,526 for the six months ended June 30, 2015.  The
change was primarily attributable to more payment made for
professional and consulting fees during the six months ended June
30, 2015.

The Company's cash used in financing activities for the six months
ended June 30, 2016 was $67,124 compared to $40,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2015.  Cash used in financing activities for
the six months ended June 30, 2016 was related to payments on
short-term notes.  Cash provided from financing activities was
related to proceeds from convertible notes.

Since its inception, the Company has financed its cash requirements
from the sale of common stock, issuance of notes and shareholder
loans.  Uses of funds have included activities to establish its
business, professional fees, exploration expenses and other general
and administrative expenses.

Due to Company's lack of operating history and present inability to
generate sufficient revenues, there is substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

EMC CORP: Moody's Cuts Senior Unsecured Notes Rating to 'Ba2'
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded EMC Corporation's ("EMC")
senior unsecured notes to Ba2 from A1 following the acquisition of
EMC by a subsidiary of Dell Inc. (Ba1 CFR). This concludes a review
initiated October 12, 2015.

Ratings downgraded include:

   -- Senior unsecured (3.375% Senior unsecured notes) rating to
      Ba2, LGD6 from A1

   -- Senior unsecured (1.875% Senior unsecured notes) rating to
      Ba2, LGD6 from A1

   -- Senior unsecured (2.65%% Senior unsecured notes) rating to
      Ba2, LGD6 from A1

Ratings withdrawn:

   -- Short term rating for commercial paper at P-1

RATING RATIONALE

The Ba2 rating reflects the subordination of EMC bonds to newly
raised acquisition debt ($33 billion secured and $3.25 billion
unsecured). Although the EMC unsecured bonds do not benefit from a
guarantee while Dell's unsecured notes are supported by a guarantee
from Dell Inc., the Denali holding companies, and all wholly-owned
domestic subsidiaries (including EMC's wholly-owned domestic
subsidiaries) except for certain unrestricted subsidiaries, both
classes of unsecured debt are rated the same at Ba2. While Moody's
ranks the new unsecured debt ahead of the legacy notes (i.e., the
pre-LBO senior unsecured notes held at Dell Inc. and the existing
EMC unsecured notes that will be rolled over as part of the deal)
in a default scenario due to the guarantees, the differential in
expected loss rates are not sufficient to create a notching
difference in instrument ratings.

Similar to what transpired after the leveraged buyout of Dell in
2013, Moody's believes that the combined company will allocate a
majority of its cash flow to debt repayment. Accordingly, with net
proceeds from divestitures and substantial cost savings, Moody's
expects that adjusted debt to EBITDA will decrease to about 4x by
the end of calendar year 2017.

A combination of the two companies will create an entity with
significant scale and breadth of product offerings in the broad
server, storage and PC markets. The merger will create the largest
private technology company in the world based on revenues.

The stable outlook is based on Moody's expectation that Dell will
preserve its solid liquidity profile while generating low single
digit revenue growth from its enterprise solutions business with
slightly declining to flat PC revenues through calendar year 2017.
Moody's anticipates that most of the cost synergies will be
achieved over the next year with free cash flow to be used
primarily for debt repayment.

Moody's could upgrade EMC's ratings if Dell were to show sustained
annual revenue growth of at least mid-single digits, high single
digit adjusted operating margins, and gross debt to EBITDA in the
mid 2 times range. In addition, financial policies will need to be
very conservative with the risk of a significant levering event
considered remote. The rating could be lowered with sustained
erosion of market share, reported adjusted operating profit margins
lower than 3%, or revenue declines from a contraction of the PC,
server, and storage markets. Also, any indications of a change in
Dell's financial policies, such that gross debt to EBITDA remains
above 4.5 times beyond calendar year 2017 could also pressure the
rating down.

EMC Corporation is the leading provider of data storage solutions
to a global customer base with annual revenues of approximately $25
billion. Dell Inc. is one of the world's leading providers of
personal computers, servers, and related devices.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Diversified
Technology Rating Methodology published in December 2015.


FARMACIA BRISAS: Disclosures Has Conditional OK; Nov. 15 Hearing
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Enrique S. Lamoutte Inclan of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Puerto Rico has conditionally approved Farmacia
Brisas Del Mar Inc.'s disclosure statement dated Aug. 15, 2016,
with respect to the Debtor's Chapter 11 plan.

The hearing to consider the final approval of the Disclosure
Statement and confirmation of the Plan will be held on Nov. 15,
2016, at 10:00 a.m.

Three days prior to the hearing is fixed as the last day for filing
written acceptances or rejections to the Plan.  Three days prior to
the hearing is fixed as the last day for filing and serving written
objections to the disclosure statement and confirmation of the
Plan.

Headquartered in Luquillo, Puerto Rico, Farmacia Brisas Del Mar,
Inc., filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr. D. P.R.
Case No. 16-00054) on Jan. 8, 2016, estimating its assets at
between $100,000 and $500,000 and liabilities at between $1 million
and $10 million.  The petition was signed by Ana I De La Cruz
Padilla, secretary.

Judge Lamoutte Inclan presides over the case.

Victor Gratacos Diaz, Esq., at Gratacos Law Firm, P.S.C., serves as
the Debtor's bankruptcy counsel.


FLAVORS HOLDINGS: Moody's Cuts Corporate Family Rating to B3
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded the Corporate Family Rating
(CFR) of Flavors Holdings Inc. to B3 from B2 and its Probability of
Default Rating to B3-PD from B2-PD. Moody's also downgraded the
first lien revolving credit facility rating to B3 from B2, the
first lien term loan rating to B3 from B2, and the second lien term
loan rating to Caa2 from Caa1. The ratings outlook is stable.

The downgrade reflects Moody's concern about Flavors' declining
liquidity given a backdrop of historical revenue declines as well
as high turnover in its senior management ranks over the last few
years. Moody's expects that revolver availability plus cash on hand
will approach a low point of $10 million by year end as the company
continues to fund the launch of its new line of stevia-based
sweetener products. Moody's is cautious regarding the growth
prospects of the company's new sweetener products because initial
growth plans for its stevia products at the time of the Merisant
acquisition (October 2014) did not come to fruition. Despite
Starbucks Corporation's (A2 stable) announcement yesterday that it
will carry Flavors Holdings new natural sweetener product, it is
still too early to tell if the company has created a flavor profile
with this new line of products that appeals to consumers at a price
they are willing to pay.

Ratings Downgraded

   -- Corporate Family Rating to B3 from B2

   -- Probability of Default Rating to B3-PD from B2-PD

   -- $350 million first lien senior secured term loan due April
      2020 to B3 (LGD 3) from B2 (LGD 3)

   -- $50 million first lien revolving credit facility to B3 (LGD
      3) from B2 (LGD 3)

   -- $50 million second lien term loan due October 2021 to Caa2
      (LGD 6) from Caa1 (LGD 6)

The ratings outlook is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Flavors Holdings' B3 Corporate Family Rating reflects the company's
small scale, niche product categories, high financial leverage, and
Moody's expectation of an aggressive financial policy. These
factors are partially offset by strong profit margins and good
geographic diversification.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that revenue growth
will be very modest and that the company will generate enough cash
to cover its basic cash obligations including debt service.

Ratings could be downgraded if there is a meaningful and decline in
profit margins, if its products fall out of favor with consumers,
or if liquidity deteriorates further than Moody's expects.

Ratings could be upgraded if the company is able to profitably grow
revenue, liquidity improves, and debt/EBITDA is sustained below 5.5
times.

Flavors Holdings Inc. manufactures, markets and distributes
tabletop sweeteners through its subsidiary Merisant Company.
Merisant markets its tabletop sweeteners primarily under the
Canderel, Equal, Pure Via, and Whole Earth Sweetener brands to
retail and foodservice customers globally and represents
approximately 59% of Flavors Holdings' revenues. Flavors Holdings
also produces a variety of licorice products from licorice root,
intermediary licorice extracts produced by others and certain other
ingredients through its subsidiary Mafco Worldwide. Mafco
represents approximately 41% of Flavors Holdings' revenues. About
half of Mafco's sales are to the tobacco industry for use as flavor
enhancing and moistening agents. Mafco also sells licorice products
to food processors, confectioners, cosmetic companies and
pharmaceutical manufactures for use as flavoring, moisturizing, or
masking agents. Flavors Holdings is indirectly owned by MacAndrews
& Forbes Incorporated. Revenue was $312 million for the twelve
months ended June 30, 2016.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was that for Global
Packaged Goods published in June 2013.


FORESIGHT ENERGY: Completes Out-of-Court Global Restructuring
-------------------------------------------------------------
Foresight Energy LP completed an out-of-court restructuring of more
than $1.4 billion in indebtedness pursuant to the terms of
Transaction Support Agreements previously executed by the
Partnership, Foresight Energy GP LLC, the Partnership's equity
sponsors, including Mr. Christopher Cline, Murray Energy Corp.,
Foresight Reserves LP, and a majority of the Partnership's secured
bank lenders and holders of the 7.875% Senior Notes due 2021 issued
by the Foresight Energy LLC and Foresight Energy Finance
Corporation.

The Partnership's restructuring resolves various defaults and
events of default relating to a December 2015 Delaware Chancery
Court determination that the Partnership's and FEGP's April 2015
equity transaction involving Murray Energy and Reserves constituted
a "change of control" of FELP under the terms of the Old Notes.
The restructuring was implemented principally through concurrent
exchange and tender offers in which holders of 99.98% of the
principal amount of the Old Notes participated.  Through the tender
and exchange offers, Reserves and certain of its affiliates
purchased approximately $105 million of outstanding Old Notes for
cash, and the Partnership exchanged the remaining Old Notes for
approximately $349 million of new second lien notes, approximately
$299 million of new convertible PIK notes, and warrants to acquire
up to 4.5% of the total outstanding units of FELP upon the
redemption of the convertible PIK notes.

The restructuring also provides for (1) an amendment and
restatement of the Partnership's senior credit facility; (2) an
amendment and restatement of the Partnership's receivables
securitization facility; (3) amendments and waivers related to the
Partnership's longwall equipment leases and financings; (4)
amendments and other modifications to FEGP's and the Partnership's
governance documents and existing agreements by and among the
equity sponsors; and (5) the execution of various mutual releases
among the participants in the restructuring.  As a result of the
restructuring, the Change of Control Litigation will be dismissed
with prejudice.

"We are pleased to have completed the debt restructuring," said
Robert D. Moore, president and chief executive officer.  "The
resulting transaction puts the change of control litigation behind
us and allows us to continue to focus on executing our mission of
running the safest, most reliable and lowest cost mines in the
Illinois Basin."

The Partnership was represented in the restructuring by PJT
Partners Inc. as its financial advisor and Paul, Weiss, Rifkind,
Wharton & Garrison LLP as its legal advisor.

                     About Foresight Energy

Foresight Energy mines and markets coal from reserves and
operations located exclusively in the Illinois Basin.  
As of Dec. 31, 2015, the Company has invested over $2.3 billion to
construct state-of-the-art, low-cost and highly productive mining
operations and related transportation infrastructure.  The Company
controls over 3 billion tons of proven and probable coal in the
state of Illinois, which, in addition to making the Company one of
the largest reserve holders in the United States, provides organic
growth opportunities.  The Company's reserves consist principally
of three large contiguous blocks of uniform, thick, high heat
content (high Btu) thermal coal which is ideal for highly
productive longwall operations.  Thermal coal is used by power
plants and industrial steam boilers to produce electricity or
process steam.

Foresight Energy reported a net loss attributable to limited
partner units of $39.47 million on $984.85 million of total
revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, compared to net income
attributable to limited partner units of $70.19 million on $1.10
billion of total revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2014.

As of June 30, 2016, Foresight had $1.74 billion in total assets,
$1.79 billion in total liabilities and a total partners' deficit of
$45.9 million.

Ernst & Young LLP, in St. Louis, Missouri, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, noting that the Partnership is
in default of certain provisions of its long-term debt and capital
lease obligations, resulting in a working capital deficit as of
Dec. 31, 2015.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Partnership's ability to continue as a going concern.

                          *     *     *

The Troubled Company Reporter on March 22, 2016, reported that
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it lowered its corporate
rating on St. Louis-based Foresight Energy to 'D' from 'CCC-'.

As reported by the TCR on Sept. 5, 2016, Moody's Investors Service
upgraded the corporate family rating (CFR) of Foresight Energy, LLC
to Caa2 from Caa3, as well as the probability of default rating
(PDR) to Caa2-PD from Caa3-PD, and the senior secured rating to
Caa1 from Caa2.  The upgrade reflects the resolution of
uncertainties related to the bondholder litigation and the events
of default, reduction in cash interest payments, and our
expectation of the gradual reduction in leverage, as a result of
convertible PIK notes maturing in October 2017 and excess cash flow
being directed towards the senior secured debt repayment.


FRANK SEVERINO: Disclosures OK'd; Plan Hearing on Sept. 28
----------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Raymond B. Ray of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Florida has approved Frank R. Severino's
amended disclosure statement.

As previously disclosed by Function(x) Inc. in a Form 8-K filed on
June 12, 2015, Sillerman Investment Company IV, LLC, an affiliate
of Robert F.X. Sillerman, the Company's executive chairman and
chief executive officer of the Company, agreed to provide a Line of

On Aug. 30, 2016, the Company borrowed an additional $500,000 under
the Line of Credit.  The principal amount now outstanding under the
Line of Credit is $1,400,000 and the Company is entitled to draw up

"The Company is unlikely to generate significant revenue or

intends to raise additional funds through equity and/or debt
offerings until sustainable revenues are developed.  There is no
assurance such equity and/or debt offerings will be successful and
therefore there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to

FUNCTION(X) INC: Has Until Sept. 30 to Regain Nasdaq Compliance
---------------------------------------------------------------
Function(x) Inc. announced that on Aug. 26, 2016, the Company
received formal notification from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC
indicating that, but for the $1.00 bid price requirement, the
Company has demonstrated compliance with all requirements for
continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, including the $2.5
million stockholders' equity requirement.  As previously disclosed,
the Nasdaq Hearings Panel required that the Company, on or before
Aug. 22, 2016, make a public filing with the Securities and
Exchange Commission indicating that it had regained compliance with
the minimum stockholders' equity requirement, among other things.
To evidence his continuing and strong support of the Company,
Robert F.X. Sillerman, executive chairman and chief executive
officer, converted to equity more than $38 million of his debt and
preferred equity to enable the Company to achieve its target of
compliance.

In its most recent determination, the Panel also provided the
Company with an extension through Sept. 30, 2016, to evidence
compliance with the $1.00 bid price requirement.  In order to
evidence compliance with that requirement, the Company must
evidence a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a
minimum of ten consecutive business days.  The Company is taking
definitive steps to remedy the bid price deficiency, particularly
via the planned implementation of a reverse stock split at a ratio
of 1-for-20 shares.

GASTAR EXPLORATION: Improves Cash Position With $10M Settlement
---------------------------------------------------------------
Gastar Exploration Inc. announced that it has executed a release
and settlement agreement regarding the Company's claim for
reimbursement under its directors and officers liability insurance
coverage to recover settlement and legal defense expenses incurred
by the Company in connection with litigation settled in December
2010.  Gastar expects to receive $10.1 million within 14 business
days of execution of the Settlement Agreement.

The Company currently has approximately $40.6 million in available
cash and cash equivalents and, after giving pro forma effect to
receipt of the settlement funds, will have $50.7 million in
available cash and cash equivalents.

                     About Gastar Exploration

Gastar Exploration Inc. is an independent energy company engaged in
the exploration, development and production of oil, condensate,
natural gas and natural gas liquids in the United States.  Gastar's
principal business activities include the identification,
acquisition, and subsequent exploration and development of oil and
natural gas properties with an emphasis on unconventional reserves,
such as shale resource plays.  In Oklahoma, Gastar is developing
the primarily oil-bearing reservoirs of the Hunton Limestone
horizontal play and is testing other prospective formations on the
same acreage, including the Meramec Shale and the Woodford Shale,
which is referred to as the STACK Play and emerging prospective
plays in the shallow Oswego formation and in the Osage formation, a
deeper bench of the Mississippi Lime located below the Meramec
Shale.  In West Virginia, Gastar has developed liquids-rich natural
gas in the Marcellus Shale and has drilled and completed two
successful dry gas Utica Shale/Point Pleasant wells on its acreage.
Gastar has entered into a definitive PSA to sell substantially all
of its assets and proved reserves and a significant portion of its
undeveloped acreage in the Appalachian Basin.  For more
information, visit Gastar's Web site at http://www.gastar.com/    


Gastar Exploration reported a net loss attributable to common
stockholders of $473.98 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015,
compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of
$36.52 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2014.

As of June 30, 2016, Gastar had $287 million in total assets, $449
million in total liabilities and a total stockholders' deficit of
$162 million.

                      *      *      *

As reported by the TCR on March 15, 2016, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services lowered its corporate credit rating on U.S.-based oil and
gas exploration and production (E&P) company Gastar Exploration
Inc. to 'CCC-' from 'CCC+'.  The downgrade follows Gastar's
announcement that it had just $29 million of cash on hand and a
fully drawn revolver.  The company's borrowing base current stands
at $180 million, but will be reduced to $100 million at the earlier
of the close of the Appalachian asset sale or April 10, 2016.
Proceeds from the Appalachian asset sale are expected to be $80
million.

As reported by the TCR on June 2, 2016, Moody's Investors Service
downgraded the Corporate Family Rating of Gastar Exploration Inc to
Caa3 from Caa1, the rating on its senior secured notes due 2018 to
Caa3 from Caa2, and the speculative grade liquidity (SGL) to SGL-4
from SGL-3.  The rating outlook was changed to negative from
stable.  The downgrade of Gastar's CFR to Caa3 reflects the
company's weakened liquidity and reduced size following the sale of
its Appalachian assets in April 2016.


GENERAL MOTORS: Settles Final 2 Ignition "Bellwether" Cases
-----------------------------------------------------------
Mike Spector, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reported that
General Motors Co. settled the final two ignition-switch cases
slated for trial in a New York federal court this year, moving the
Detroit auto maker closer to clearing remaining legal hurdles
stemming from a safety defect linked to 124 deaths.

According to the report, the cases were the final two among a half
dozen selected for so-called bellwether trials aimed at setting
settlement patterns for remaining personal injury and wrongful
death suits.  The cases arose from roughly 2.6 million older cars
GM recalled in early 2014 with faulty ignition switches that risk
jostling off and cutting power to engines and safety features
including power steering, power brakes and air bags, the report
related.

GM reached an agreement to settle the lawsuits, which alleged
injuries tied to the defective ignition switches, said Bob
Hilliard, a Texas plaintiffs' lawyer involved in the litigation,
the report further related.

Lawyers are expected to file court papers alerting a judge the
cases have been settled, he said, the report said.  Mr. Hilliard,
who declined to reveal the settlement payouts, said GM's
willingness to settle "creates momentum" to continue resolving
litigation in a sprawling New York legal proceeding culling
hundreds of cases brought by thousands of plaintiffs, the report
related.

"We have an agreement to settle the last two federal bellwether
cases scheduled for 2016," GM spokesman Jim Cain, told WSJ, adding
the terms are confidential.

GF FINANCE: Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Amid Lawsuits
---------------------------------------------------------
GF Finance, Inc. and its owner Stephen T. Hansen each filed a
voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on Sept.
7, 2016, after two of their lenders initiated actions in North
Dakota state court.  The Debtors are concerned that, absent the
bankruptcy filings, the other lenders would follow suit and file
collection actions of their own in the near future.

The Debtors intend "to take advantage of the breathing room
afforded by the Bankruptcy Code, to obtain a single forum for the
resolution of the competing claims by and between the Debtors and
their lenders, to preserve the value of their assets, and to
maximize the recoveries to all creditors and parties in interest."

In July, 2016, United Valley Bank commenced collection litigation
against GF Finance, Hansen Leasing & Rental, Inc., Hansen Leasing &
Rental of Fargo, Inc. and Mr. Hansen.  Last month, U.S. Bank filed
a lawsuit against Mr. Hansen seeking to enforce his guaranties of
GF Finance's debt.  Non-debtors HLR and HLRF are 100% owned by Mr.
Hansen.

Engaged in the equipment financing and leasing business
specializing in over-the-road tractors and trailers, farm
equipment, and light-duty construction equipment, GF Finance is
currently in the process of winding down its operations.

The Debtors said they are currently investigating Hadley Freng, who
served as general manager for GF Finance, HLR and HLRF, for his
alleged gross negligence, mismanagement, breach of fiduciary duty
and outright theft that led to the destruction of their
businesses.

"Hadley systematically destroyed the successful businesses Steve
had spent the better part of his life creating," said Morris C.
Aaron, president of MCA Financial Group, Ltd., the proposed
financial advisor for the Debtors.  "Over the past seven years,
Steve gradually relinquished nearly total operational and financial
control over the businesses to his trusted long-time employee and
family friend Hadley Freng, with the understanding that Hadley
eventually would obtain financing to buy-out Steve.  For whatever
reason, Hadley either was unable or unwilling to obtain the
financing necessary to purchase the businesses," he continued.

Following the discovery of Mr. Freng's alleged misconduct, the
Debtors retained MCA as an outside chief restructuring officer.

"By the time MCA was retained on November 29, 2015, GFF, HLR, and
HLRF owed over $31 million and were in default with every one of
their secured lenders, the companies' books and records were
deliberately indecipherable, the GFF loan/lease portfolio hadn't
been properly serviced in years, and Hadley had managed to drain
millions of dollars of value from the companies," Mr. Aaron
asserted.

Mr. Aaron disclosed that as of Dec. 15, 2015, approximately $24.2
million of the secured debt, all guaranteed by Mr. Hansen and GFF,
was owed by HLR and HLRF to five secured lenders under rental car
fleet financing arrangements.  As of Dec. 15, 2015, GFF owed
approximately $7.3 million to its five secured lenders related to
its equipment finance business, all of which was guaranteed by Mr.
Hansen.

From December 2015 thru March 2016, HLR and HRLF, with the
assistance of MCA and Gallagher & Kenndey, P.A., the Debtors'
counsel, successfully negotiated a sale of the rental car
franchises and related assets.  The sale, which closed on March 15,
2016, together with the aggressive sale of hundreds of rental cars
and the resolution of complex litigation, resulted in the reduction
of the debt owed to the HLR/HLRF lenders from $24.2 million to
approximately $1.4 million.

Following the close of the HLR/HLRF sale in March 2016, GF Finance
terminated its remaining employees.  GF Finance currently has one
part-time independent contractor assisting with the ongoing
servicing of the remaining GFF loan/lease portfolio along with
support from MCA professionals.  By late July 2016, the debt owed
to the GF Finance Lenders had been reduced from $7.3 million to
approximately $5.1 million.

As of Dec. 31, 2015, GF Finance was owed outstanding loan/lease
receivables from its customers totaling approximately $10.5
million, as disclosed in Court documents.

The Debtors intend to file a plan of reorganization in the very
early stages of these cases that provides for the payment in full
of all allowed claims.  The plan will look very much like the
restructure plan proposed to the lenders before these cases were
filed.

The cases are pending in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District
of Arizona (Bankr. D. Ariz. Case Nos. 16-10282 and 16-10283) before
Judge Paul Sala.  GF Finance listed total assets of $8.23 million
and total liabilities of $17.48 million as of the bankruptcy
filing.

GIGA-TRONICS INC: Two Directors Won't Seek Re-Election
------------------------------------------------------
Giga-tronics Incorporated announced that on Aug. 31, 2016, two
directors, Garrett A. Garretson and Kenneth A. Harvey, communicated
to the Nominating and Governance Committee their respective
decisions not to stand for reelection to the Company's board of
directors at the annual shareholder meeting tentatively scheduled
for Oct. 26, 2016.  Their decisions were not related to any
disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its
operations, policies or practices, as disclosed in a Form 8-K filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Mr. Garrettson, age 73, and Mr. Harvey, age 52, had served on the
board since 2006 and 2002, respectively.  The Nominating and
Governance Committee expects to nominate at least one candidate
Jaime Weston, to take one of the resulting openings but may
recommend that the board reduce the number of directors on the
board, in part to reflect the Company's reduction in the size of
its operations.

Mr. Weston is a managing director of Spring Mountain Capital
private equity group and has been with the firm since 2011.  Mr.
Weston was previously a Partner at The Wicks Group of Companies, a
private equity firm with close to $1 billion under management,
focused on selected segments of the information, education, and
media industries.  During his 15 years at Wicks, he was an integral
part of its investment and management activities, and served on the
board of directors of many of its portfolio companies.  While at
Wicks, he directly structured and negotiated more than 20
acquisitions and divestitures and worked on more than 40 additional
closed transactions.  Prior to Wicks, Mr. Weston worked at IBJ
Whitehall Bank & Trust Company and National Westminster Bancorp,
where he completed leveraged financings. Mr. Weston received his
M.B.A. from Fordham University and graduated cum laude from Drew
University with a B.A. in Economics.

                     About Giga-Tronics

Headquartered in San Ramon, California, Giga-tronics Incorporated
includes the operations of the Giga-tronics Division and
Microsource Inc. (Microsource), a wholly owned subsidiary.
Giga-tronics Division designs, manufactures and markets the new
Advanced Signal Generator (ASG) for the electronic warfare market,
and switching systems that are used in automatic testing systems
primarily in aerospace, defense and telecommunications.

As of June 25, 2016, Giga-Tronics had $12.12 million in total
assets, $9.17 million in total liabilities and $2.95 million in
total shareholders' equity.

                          Going Concern

The Company incurred net losses of $4.1 million and $1.7 million in
the fiscal years ended March 26, 2016 and March 28, 2015,
respectively.  These losses have contributed to an accumulated
deficit of $24.0 million as of March 26, 2016.

The Company has experienced delays in the development of features,
orders, and shipments for the new ASG.  These delays have
significantly contributed to a decrease in working capital from
$3.0 million at March 28, 2015, to $1.8 million at March 26, 2016.
The new ASG product has now shipped to several customers, but
potential delays in the development of features, longer than
anticipated sales cycles, or the ability to efficiently manufacture
the ASG, could significantly contribute to additional future losses
and decreases in working capital.

To help fund operations, the Company relies on advances under the
line of credit with Bridge Bank.  The line of credit expires on May
7, 2017.  The agreement includes a subjective acceleration clause,
which allows for amounts due under the facility to become
immediately due in the event of a material adverse change in the
Company's business condition (financial or otherwise), operations,
properties or prospects, or ability to repay the credit based on
the lender's judgement.  As of March 26, 2016, the line of credit
had a balance of $800,000, and additional borrowing capacity of
$906,000.

These matters, the Company said, raise substantial doubt as to its
ability to continue as a going concern.


GORAN PLEHO: Hawaii App. Remands Suit vs. Lacy Law Firm, et al.
---------------------------------------------------------------
In the case captioned GORAN PLEHO, LLC, a Hawaii Limited Liability
Company (dba Resorts Limousine Services), GORAN PLEHO, and ANA
MARIA PLEHO, Plaintiffs-Appellants/Cross-Appellees, v. DAVID W.
LACY, LACY AND JACKSON, LLLC, a Hawaii Limited Liability Law
Company, Defendants-Appellees/Cross-Appellants, and DRAGAN RNIC,
JOHN DOES 1-X, JANE DOES 1-X, and DOE ENTITIES 1-X,
Defendants-Appellees, No. CAAP-12-0000025, the Intermediate Court
of Appeals of Hawaii affirmed in part and vacated in part the
Circuit Court's January 9, 2012 Judgment and remanded this case to
the Circuit Court for further proceedings.

The Judgment is vacated with respect to the following: (1) Goran
and Maria's claims in Counts II, III, VIII, and XI, for relief
against the Lacy Parties for fraud, fraud in the inducement, legal
malpractice, and punitive damages; (2) the January 9, 2012 award of
attorneys' fees and costs to the Lacy Parties to the extent that it
held Goran and Maria jointly and severally liable to the Lacy
Parties, without prejudice to a renewed motion by the Lacy Parties
upon disposition of Goran and Maria's remanded claims; and (3) the
Circuit Court's ruling on Motion in Limine No. 2 and the admission
of Exhibit 27-G(7) to allow the Circuit Court, in the first
instance, to exercise its discretion on the Lacy Parties' request
for judicial estoppel.

This appeal arises out of the sale of Resorts Limousine Services, a
limousine service located on Hawaii Island, by Dragan Rnic to Goran
Pleho, LLC, a Hawaii limited liability company.  David W. Lacy
provided legal representation to one or more of the parties in the
transaction and drafted the relevant documents.  Following the
sale, GPLCC, Goran Pleho, and Ana Maria Pleho, brought claims
regarding the sale against Rnic, Lacy, and Lacy's law firm, Lacy
and Jackson, LLLC, as well as legal malpractice claims against Lacy
and L&J.  GPLLC's legal malpractice claims eventually went to
trial, resulting in a jury verdict in favor of the Lacy Parties.

The Pleho Parties appeal from the judgment entered by the Circuit
Court of the Third Circuit on January 9, 2012, in favor of Rnic and
the Lacy Parties on all claims asserted by the Pleho Parties. The
Lacy Parties cross-appeal from a July 8, 2011 order denying the
Lacy Parties' April 21, 2011 Motion in Limine No. 2, which
pertained to the trial on GPLLC's legal malpractice claims.

Among other things, the appellate court found that it appears from
the record that the Lacy Parties established each of these elements
as the Pleho Parties' position that GPLLC owes money to Goran
and/or Maria is factually incompatible with Goran and Maria's
failure to identify such indebtedness as an asset on its bankruptcy
schedules, the bankruptcy court made various rulings based on the
Plehos' assertions concerning their assets and liabilities, and
GPLLC (and, on remand, perhaps Goran and Maria), seek to take
unfair advantage by using evidence of this indebtedness as a
measure of damages for its claims against the Lacy Parties.

It further appears, however, that the Circuit Court erroneously
concluded that the issue was a matter of credibility rather than
admissibility, and did not reach the exercise of its discretion on
whether to judicially estop the Pleho Parties from asserting the
factually incompatible position in this case, the appellate court
said.  Thus, the appellate court vacates the Circuit Court's ruling
on Motion in Limine No. 2 and the admission of Exhibit 27-G(7) to
allow the Circuit Court, in the first instance, to exercise its

GRAY TELEVISION: Moody's Assigns B2 Rating to New $525MM Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B2 rating to Gray Television,
Inc.'s (Gray or the Company) proposed $525 million of new notes due
2024. In connection with this assignment, Moody's also upgraded
Gray's existing 5.875% notes due 2026 to B2. The 2026 notes,
originally issued in June, are proposed to increase by $200 million
in today's transaction. The proceeds from the offering, plus cash,
will be used to tender for the $675 million 7.5% Senior Notes due
2020. The remaining proceeds will be used to fund the redemption,
accrued interest, and transaction fees. Moody's said, “We expect
the transaction to favorably extend the company's maturity profile
but add approximately $50 million of incremental debt, raising
leverage but only slightly. The B3 rating on Gray's $675 million
notes is upgraded to B2 consistent with the rating action and
subsequently withdrawn at deal close. All other ratings are
unchanged and the outlook remains stable.”

The upgrade to the notes reflects the shift in Gray's capital
structure which includes more unsecured debt than initially
expected. Moody's said, "Previously, we assumed there would be more
secured bank debt in the capital structure. With less higher
priority debt in Gray's capital structure, the company's unsecured
debt is subject to a more favorable recovery rate."

Upgrades:

   Issuer: Gray Television, Inc.

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Upgraded to B2
      (LGD4) from B3 (LGD5)

Assignments:

   Issuer: Gray Television, Inc.

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Assigned B2 (LGD4)

RATINGS RATIONALE

Gray's B1 Corporate Family Rating reflects improved but elevated
leverage expected to be less than 5x (Moody's adjusted debt-to-2
year average EBITDA, pro forma for announced transactions) by the
end of 2016. Moody's said, “In addition, we expect only modest
coverage ratios including EBITDA-CAPEX/Interest (Moody's adjusted)
and FCF-Non-cash interest / Debt of 2.7x-3.1x and 7%-9%,
respectively. Supporting the rating is a strong market position
with a long track record of #1 and #2 ranked positions in the vast
majority of its 53 markets. Coupled with low syndication costs, top
ranked local news programming, and one of the largest affiliates
among the top broadcasters, the company generates high EBITDA
margins exceeding 38% (including Moody's standard adjustments).
Gray also benefits more than its peer group from demand for
political advertising during election years with a heavy geographic
concentration in the common battleground states which also fuels
EBITDA growth.”

The stable rating outlook reflects Moody's view that organic growth
in core ad sales will remain steady, in the low single digit
percentage range over the next 12 months. The outlook also assumes
leverage will fall below 5.0x.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global
Broadcast and Advertising Related Industries published in May 2012.


Gray Television, Inc., headquartered in Atlanta, GA, is a
television broadcaster serving (pro forma for announced
acquisitions) 53 mid-sized markets (ranked #62 to #209) covering
roughly 10.1% of US households. Network affiliations will include
36 CBS, 27 NBC, 20 ABC, and 14 FOX channels. The company will
operate the #1 or #2 ranked stations in 52 of 53 markets. Gray is
publicly traded and its shares are widely held. The family and
affiliates of the late J. Mack Robinson collectively own
approximately 12% of the common stock. The dual class equity
structure provides these affiliated entities with roughly 44% of
the voting control. Estimated average annual revenue pro forma for
announced transactions exceeds $790 million.


GREAT BASIN: Receives Noncompliance Notice from Nasdaq
------------------------------------------------------
Great Basin Scientific, Inc., received on Aug. 31, 2016, a letter
from The Nasdaq Stock Market stating that the bid price of the
Company's common stock for the last 30 consecutive trading days had
closed below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued
listing under Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), as disclosed in a Form 8-K
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Letter does not result in the immediate delisting of the
Company's common stock, and the stock will continue to be listed on
The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "GBSN" during the
180-day grace period.  The Company is considering its options for
regaining compliance to allow for continued listing on The Nasdaq
Capital Market and intends to take appropriate action before the
end of the 180-day grace period, including a potential reverse
stock split to be considered by the Company's shareholders at the
Company's annual meeting to be held on Sept. 12, 2016.

The Letter states that the Company has until Feb. 27, 2017, to
demonstrate compliance by maintaining for a minimum of ten
consecutive business days a minimum closing bid price of at least
$1.00.

In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Bid
Price Rule within the 180-day grace period, it may be eligible to
receive an additional 180-day grace period; provided, that the
Company meets the continued listing requirement for market value of
publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for
The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Bid Price
Rule, and provides written notice of its intention to cure the Bid
Price Rule deficiency during the second 180-day grace period, by
effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.

If it appears to the Nasdaq staff that the Company will not be able
to cure the deficiency of the Bid Price Rule or if the Company is
not otherwise eligible for the additional grace period, the
Company's common stock will be subject to delisting by Nasdaq.

Great Basin Scientific is a molecular diagnostic testing company
focused on the development and commercialization of its patented,
molecular diagnostic platform designed to test for infectious
disease, especially hospital-acquired infections.  The Company
believes that small to medium sized hospital laboratories, those
under 400 beds, are in need of simpler and more affordable
molecular diagnostic testing methods.  The Company markets a system
that combines both affordability and ease-of-use, when compared to
other commercially available molecular testing methods, which the
Company believes will accelerate the adoption of molecular testing
in small to medium sized hospitals.  The Company's system includes
an analyzer, which it provides for its customers' use without

Company sells to its customers.

Great Basin reported a net loss of $57.9 million in 2015 following

concern" opinion in its report on the consolidated financial

Company has incurred substantial losses from operations causing
negative working capital and negative operating cash flows.  These
issues raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern.

HORSEHEAD HOLDINGS: Shareholders Fall Short in Bankruptcy Fight
---------------------------------------------------------------
The American Bankruptcy Institute, citing Tom Hals of Reuters,
reported that Horsehead Holding Corp was cleared to exit bankruptcy
although a U.S. judge acknowledged that allegations by the zinc
producer's shareholders that their investment was being unfairly
wiped out came very close to derailing the company's plan.

According to the report, Horsehead can now proceed with its plan
that will eliminate most of its $427 million in pre-bankruptcy
debt, cancel its stock and allow the company to emerge from Chapter
11 under the control of its noteholders, led by Greywolf Capital
Management.

"This was one of the most difficult decisions in my 10 years on the
bench," the report cited U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Sontchi
as saying at a hearing in Wilmington, Delaware.

Horsehead had to defend its plan during a three-day trial against
allegations by an official equity committee that noteholders were
enriching themselves at shareholders' expense, the report related.

The shareholders attacked a valuation by the Lazard investment bank
and argued that Horsehead was a "loan-to-own" play by secured
noteholders, who bought the company's debt at a discount and then
provided a bankruptcy loan with strict provisions, the report
further related.

Judge Sontchi said the noteholders "shot themselves in the foot" by
including a "no-shop" provision in the bankruptcy loan, the report
cited.  Without it, the company could have tested its value with an
auction and avoided the trial that largely turned on experts'
competing views of valuation, the report noted.

                   About Horsehead Holding Corp.

Horsehead Holding Corp. is the parent company of Horsehead
Corporation, a U.S. producer of specialty zinc and zinc-based

was signed by Robert D. Scherich as vice president and chief
financial officer. Judge Christopher S. Sontchi is assigned to the
case.

noticing agent and Aird & Berlis LLP as Canadian counsel.

IMOGENE AND WILLIE: Petitioning Creditors Seek Ch. 11 Trustee
-------------------------------------------------------------
Robert Lamey and Paige Heid, minority members and the largest
creditors of Imogene and Willie, LLC, filed a motion asking the
United States Bankruptcy Court District of Colorado to direct the
appointment a Chapter 11 Trustee to assume possession and control
of the Debtor.

The Debtor is engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing,
and selling denim blue jeans.

Lamey and Heid jointly own 46.5% and the Eddmensons, another
investor who opened retail locations for the Debtor, own an
additional 46.5% of the Debtor's equity member interests. The
Eddmensons sought Lamey's investment in the Debtor, assuring Lamey
that, if he would invest significant money, the Eddmensons would
wisely and completely allocate those funds toward the Debtor's
growth and development. In the case, the Eddmensons did not deliver
on that assurance, the creditors said.

The Eddmensons knowingly and intentionally induced Lamey and Heid
to loan US$1.5 million to the Debtor while concealing their true
intentions -- intentions they manifested with action -- to spend
the Debtor's borrowed money on themselves to support a lavish
lifestyle of personal indulgence while failing to meet any of the
critical deadlines for developing a wholesale business, the
creditors added.

In light of the fraud, dishonesty, and gross mismanagement of the
Debtor's affairs by the Eddmensons -- the Debtor's controlling
members, managers, and presidents, Lamey and Heid respectfully
request that the Court immediately order the appointment of a
chapter 11 trustee for the best interests of the Debtor's creditors
and estate by protecting what remains of the Debtor's operations
and assets and preserving the Debtor's value for the benefit of the
Debtor's creditors.

                         About Imogene and Willie

Imogene and Willie, LLC is engaged in the business of designing,
manufacturing, and selling denim blue jeans.  The Debtor was
founded by Carrie and Matthew Eddmenson, husband and wife who
reside in California, in or about January 2009 in Nashville, TN.

The Debtor opened a facility in Tennessee and began making and
selling jeans there in early 2009.  The Eddmensons subsequently
opened a retail location at 2601 12th Avenue South, Nashville,
Tennessee, and later opened a second location at 1306 W Burnside
Street, Portland, Oregon.  The Debtor's jeans were also sold in
other upscale retail stores nationwide and online through the
Debtor's website.

Lamey and Heid are a married couple and citizens of Colorado. Since
July 19, 2013, Lamey and Heid jointly own 46.5% and the Eddmensons
own an additional 46.5% of the Debtor's equity member interests.
41 Lyons Plain Road, LLC owns the remaining 7% of the Debtor's
equity member interests.

JENSEN INDUSTRIES: Seeks Authority to Use $48K Cash Monthly
-----------------------------------------------------------
Jensen Industries, Inc., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Michigan for authorization to use cash
collateral.

The Debtor relates that, according to a UCC search performed by the
Debtor's counsel, the Internal Revenue Service, the Unemployment
Insurance Agency, and the State of Michigan have liens against
Debtor’s assets.

The Debtor believes that the IRS is owed $375,000; the State of
Michigan is owed $57,678 is owed; and that the UIA is owed
$13,207.

The Debtor contends that it will suffer irreparable harm if it is
not able to use cash collateral to pay for ordinary and necessary
ongoing business expenses.  The Debtor further contends that it
wants to spend up to $48,475.00 per month on inventory, wages,
insurance, utilities, repairs/maintenance, other ordinary and
necessary operating expenses and US Trustee fees.

Jenny Moule, the Debtor's CFO, tells the Court that the Debtor's
revenues are are approximately $50,000.00 a month.  She further
tells the Court that the Debtor's secured creditors would not be
harmed by the Debtor's use of cash collateral as the Debtor
maintains a stable level of cash, and its assets are not
depreciating.

KEY ENERGY: Common Stock Delisted from NYSE
-------------------------------------------
The New York Stock Exchange LLC filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission a Form 25-NSE notifying the removal from
listing or registration of Key Energy Services Inc.'s common stock
on the Exchange.  

                       About Key Energy

Key Energy Services, Inc. (NYSE: KEG), a Maryland corporation,
claims to be the largest onshore, rig-based well servicing
contractor based on the number of rigs owned.  The Company was
organized in April 1977 and commenced operations in July 1978 under
the name National Environmental Group, Inc.  In December 1992, the
Company became Key Energy Group, Inc. and it changed its name to
Key Energy  Services, Inc. in December 1998.

Key Energy reported a net loss of $917.70 million on $792.32
million of revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, compared to a
net loss of $178.62 million on $1.42 billion of revenues for the
year ended Dec. 31, 2014.

As of March 31, 2016, the Company had $1.22 billion in total
assets, $1.16 billion in total liabilities and $58.87 million in
total equity.

                         *    *    *

As reported by the TCR on June 20, 2016, S&P Global Ratings lowered
its corporate credit rating on U.S.-based Key Energy Services Inc.
to 'CC' from 'CCC-'.  "The downgrade follow's Key's disclosure that
it entered into confidential agreements with certain holders of its
6.75% senior notes due 2021 and certain lenders of the term loans
regarding a financial restructuring," said S&P Global Ratings
credit analyst David Lagasse.

The TCR reported on May 20, 2016, that Moody's Investors Service
downgraded Key Energy Services, Inc.'s Corporate Family Rating
(CFR) to Ca from Caa2, Probability of Default Rating (PDR) to Ca-PD
from Caa2-PD, and senior unsecured rating to Ca from Caa3.  The
SGL-4 Speculative Grade Liquidity (SGL) Rating was affirmed.


KEY ENERGY: Elects to Not Pay $22.8M Notes Interest Due Sept. 1
---------------------------------------------------------------
As contemplated by the terms of the plan support agreement, dated
Aug. 24, 2016, by and among Key Energy Services, Inc., and certain
of its subsidiaries, Platinum Equity and certain of the other
holders of the Company's 6.75% Senior Notes due 2021, representing
an aggregate of 89.1% in principal amount of the Senior Notes, and
certain of the lenders under Key's Term Loan Credit Agreement dated
June 1, 2015, the Company elected not to make its interest payment
of $22,781,250 due on Sept. 1, 2016, with respect to its Senior
Notes.  The indenture governing the Senior Notes permits the
Company a 30-day grace period to make the interest payment.  If the
Company does not make the payment for 30 days, an event of default
is triggered under the indenture governing the Senior Notes and the
Senior Notes may become due and payable.  In addition, an event of
default under the indenture related to the Senior Notes would
trigger an event of default under the Company's ABL and Term Loan
facilities, as disclosed in a Form 8-K filing with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

KRONOS ACQUISITION: Moody's Gives Caa2 Rating on $235MM Add-On
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investor's Service assigned a Caa2 rating to Kronos
Acquisition Holdings Inc.'s proposed $235 million add-on issuance
to its existing $390 million senior unsecured notes due 2023. The
company's B3 corporate family rating ("CFR"), B3-PD probability of
default rating, B2 ratings on first lien term loans ($850 million
and $235 million), Caa2 rating on senior unsecured notes, SGL-2
speculative grade liquidity rating and stable outlook remain
unchanged. The B2 rating on the existing $235 million first lien
term loan will be withdrawn when the refinance transaction closes.

The company plans to use the proceeds from the add-on notes to
repay existing $235 million first lien term loan.

Ratings Assigned:

   -- $235 million Add-on Unsecured Notes due August 2023, Caa2
      (LGD5)

RATINGS RATIONALE

Kronos' B3 CFR primarily reflects its high leverage (pro forma
adjusted Debt/EBITDA of 7x), and Moody's opinions that organic
growth prospects are low and that management will not apply free
cash flow towards meaningful debt repayment. The rating considers
Kronos' sizeable share of the US private label bleach market, its
position as the largest contract manufacturer for blue-chip
consumer packaged goods customers, its good position in pool
additives, and its enhanced diversity following the Prestone
acquisition. In addition to its low growth profile, operating
results may be volatile given Kronos' relatively high exposure to
raw material costs. Moody's expects synergy benefits from recent
acquisitions and ongoing operational improvements in all businesses
to drive growth in EBITDA and together with modest debt repayment,
leverage should fall towards 6.5x in the next 12 to 18 months.

Kronos has good liquidity (SGL-2), supported by cash of $27 million
at Q2/2016, about $200 million of availability under its $300
million ABL revolver due August 2020, and Moody's expectation for
free cash flow of around $50 million in the next 4 quarters. These
sources are ample to meet term loan amortizations of $8.5 million
per year. Kronos does not have to comply with any financial
covenants unless ABL availability falls below $30 million, which
mandates compliance with a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of
1x. Moody's does not expect this covenant to be restrictive for the
next 4 to 6 quarters. Access to alternative liquidity from asset
sales is unlikely because substantially all of the company's assets
are pledged as collateral for its credit facilities.

The outlook is stable and reflects Moody's expectation that Kronos'
businesses will remain relatively stable despite soft economic
conditions and that modest EBITDA growth and mandatory debt
repayment will enable leverage to decline towards 6.5x by the end
of 2017.

Moody's will consider upgrading Kronos' ratings if it maintains at
least adequate liquidity, proves an ability to generate consistent
positive free cash flow, and sustains adjusted Debt/EBITDA towards
5.5x along with RCF/Net Debt well above 10%. The ratings will be
downgraded if there is significant deterioration in operating
performance arising from volume or price declines and margin
contraction such that adjusted Debt/EBITDA is sustained towards 7x.
Kronos' ratings will also be downgraded if its liquidity
deteriorates, likely due to negative free cash flow generation on a
consistent basis.

The principal methodology used in this rating was Global Packaged
Goods published in June 2013.

Kronos Acquisition Holdings Inc., headquartered in Concord,
Ontario, manufactures a variety of household cleaning, personal
care, over-the-counter products, pool additives and automotive
fluids. Pro forma for recent acquisitions, revenue approaches $2.3
billion. Kronos is owned by Centerbridge Partners LLC.

LIGHT TOWER: Moody's Affirms 'B2' Corporate Family Rating
---------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed Light Tower Rental's B2
Corporate Family Rating and revised the rating outlook to negative
from stable. At the same time, Moody's also affirmed the B2-PD
Probability of Default Rating, B2 rating on the senior secured
notes, and the SGL-3 Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating.

"The negative outlook reflects Moody's weakening outlook on Light
Tower's operating performance over the next 12 months as demand for
its products exposed to drilling and completion remains at soft
levels," said Moody's Analyst, Morris Borenstein. "While Light
Tower can reduce its capex to partially mitigate earnings declines,
sustained weakness in 2016 could lead to further negative rating
pressure."

Issuer: Light Tower Rentals, Inc.

Ratings affirmed:

Corporate Family Rating at B2;

Probability of Default Rating at B2-PD;

$330 million Senior Secured Notes at B2 (LGD4);

Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating at SGL-3;

The rating outlook has been changed to negative from stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The B2 CFR reflects LTR's small size and scale within the broader
oilfield services industry and exposure to the highly cyclical and
competitive onshore oilfield services market which is in the midst
of a severe downturn. As a result of a decline in demand for most
oilfield service equipment in LTR's portfolio, Moody's believe
debt/EBITDA will increase to over 4 times over the next twelve
months. LTR's business is also characterized by low barriers to
entry due to the un-contracted nature of rental revenues combined
with the relatively low-technology product offering.

The rating is supported by the company's relatively high EBITDA
margins, strong market position in oilfield-focused specialty
equipment rental market, and deep customer relationships developed
by management. The rating also acknowledges that while the products
represent a minimal proportion of the total well cost, they play a
critical component of well-site operations. Further supporting the
rating is the company's geographic diversity in the most active
hydrocarbon regions in the US, and product diversity. Because much
of the company's capex spending is related to replenishing its
fleet of equipment, the company can scale down those expenditures
as EBITDA and demand fall to support its liquidity.

LTR's SGL-3 Speculative Grade Liquidity rating reflects Moody's
expectations of adequate liquidity over the next twelve to fifteen
months. Headwinds in the energy sector will negatively impact LTR's
EBITDA and cash flows. Despite these headwinds, Moody's expects the
company to generate modest positive free cash flow, benefitting
from cash generated out of reduced accounts receivables and scaled
back capital expenditures in line with reduced activity levels.
Moody's expects LTR's $30 million ABL revolver to be largely
undrawn with periodic draws throughout the remainder of 2015 and
well into 2016. The credit agreement contains a 1.1 times springing
fixed charge coverage covenant that only applies when revolver
availability falls below $4 million, which Moody's does not expect.
Given that both the ABL and senior notes are secured, Moody's
believes the company would have a limited ability to raise cash for
liquidity through asset sales.

The ratings could be downgraded if earnings weaken such that EBITDA
to interest coverage approaches 2 times, debt to EBITDA is
sustained above 5 times or if the company's liquidity profile
weakens. The ratings outlook could be changed to stable if LTR's
earnings appear to have bottomed at levels that provide adequate
interest coverage with visibility toward sequential earnings
improvement. A rating upgrade is unlikely through 2016 given
Moody's expectation of a very slow recovery in onshore drilling
activity. The ratings could be upgraded If EBITDA increases above
$200 million while maintaining Debt/EBITDA below 3x.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global Oilfield
Services Industry Rating Methodology published in December 2014.
Other methodologies used include Loss Given Default for
Speculative-Grade Non-Financial Companies in the US, Canada and
EMEA published in June 2009. Please see the Credit Policy page on
www.moodys.com for a copy of these methodologies.

Light Tower Rentals, Inc. ("LTR") is a diversified well-site
specialty surface equipment rental and services provider which
generates revenue through the rental of products (power generators,
light towers, fluid handling, trailers and heaters) for use at oil
and natural gas well-sites. LTR is 57% owned by management and
private equity sponsor Clairvest Group Inc. with the remainder by a
group of other investors. Revenue for the twelve months ended March
31, 2015 was approximately $279 million.



LOUISIANA-PACIFIC CORP: Moody's Gives Ba3 Sr. Unsec. Notes Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a Ba3 rating to
Louisiana-Pacific Corporation's (LP) new $350 million senior
unsecured notes offering. The net proceeds will be used to
repurchase the company's $350 million 7.5% senior unsecured notes
due 2020. The company's Ba2 corporate family rating, Ba2-PD
probability of default rating and SGL-1 liquidity rating are
unchanged. The new notes will rank behind the company's senior
secured revolving credit facility (unrated) and will be rated one
notch below the Ba2 corporate family rating, in accordance with
Moody's loss-given-default methodology. The outlook is stable.

"Louisiana-Pacific's existing ratings are unchanged as the
transaction is leverage neutral. We continue to expect the company
to maintain good operating performance and liquidity through
volatile industry conditions " said Ed Sustar, Senior Vice
President with Moody's.

Assignments:

   Issuer: Louisiana-Pacific Corporation

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Assigned Ba3(LGD4)

RATINGS RATIONALE

Louisiana Pacific (LP)'s Ba2 corporate family rating reflects the
company's leading North American market positions in oriented
strand board (OSB), engineered wood products and wood siding,
strong liquidity position and normalized leverage of about 3x using
5 year average OSB prices. LP controls about 20% of the OSB market
in North America and the company has a growing wood siding business
and an increasing Latin American manufacturing presence. However,
LP's financial performance is significantly influenced by OSB
pricing, which is among the most volatile commodity grades in the
paper and forest products industry. Moody's said, “We expect the
company will benefit as the US housing market improves towards
trend levels over the next few years. OSB prices are expected to
increase by about 20% in 2016 as industry supply is absorbed by
growing demand, and then remain flat in 2017 as OSB supply and
demand balance.”

LP's SGL-1 speculative grade liquidity rating reflects the
company's strong liquidity with about $275 million of available
cash (June 2016 cash of $475 million net of a $200 million minimum
cash covenant), and no borrowings under its $200 million committed
revolving credit facility, which matures in December 2018. Moody's
said, “We estimate the company will generate about $100 million
of free cash flow over the next year. We expect LP to remain in
compliance with its financial covenants and the company has no
significant debt maturities over the next several years.”

The stable outlook is based on our view that LP will be able to
maintain good operating performance and liquidity through volatile
industry conditions. It incorporates our expectation that the
financial performance of the company will remain strong over the
next 12 to 18 months as OSB prices stabilize as demand improves
with modestly increasing US housing starts. This is tempered by the
volatility in OSB pricing, which fluctuates significantly when
supply and demand are out of balance.

An upgrade would require a reduction in the volatility of the
company's financial performance through additional product
diversification away from OSB, and less reliance on US housing
starts, while maintaining strong leverage (RCF/TD) and interest
coverage measures above 20% and 4.5x respectively (28.7% and 4.3x
at June 2016, adjusted per Moody's standard definitions) on a
sustainable basis.

The rating could be downgraded if the company's liquidity
deteriorates or if we expect RCF/TD and interest coverage measures
to drop below 12% and 3x for a sustained period.

The principal methodology used in this rating was Global Paper and
Forest Products Industry published in October 2013.

Headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, Louisiana-Pacific
Corporation is a leading manufacturer and distributor of wood-based
building materials, primarily oriented strand board (OSB).

MARION AVENUE: Court Moves Plan Filing Deadline to Sept. 26
-----------------------------------------------------------
U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge James L. Garrity, Jr. extended Marion
Avenue Management LLC's exclusive period during which only the
Debtor may file a plan from July 27, 2016 to Sept. 26, 2016, and
the concomitant exclusive period during which only the Debtor may
solicit acceptances or rejections to such plan of reorganization as
may be filed from Sept. 26, 2016 to Nov. 28, 2016.

The Troubled Company Reporter has reported earlier that the Debtor
has asked the Court to further extend its exclusive periods to file
a plan of reorganization and solicit acceptances of such plan for
an additional 60 days because of a personal injury action, as well
as a separate action for declaratory judgment against Public
Service Mutual Insurance Company to compel the insurance carrier to
defend and indemnify the Debtor against the tort claim based on
available insurance.  The Debtor is making preparation to propose a
plan even without final resolution of the declaratory judgment
action so that its Chapter 11 case can move forward under any
circumstances, however, the plan is not formulated.

MOUNTAIN WOOD: First Bank of Tennessee Wants to Prohibit Cash Use
-----------------------------------------------------------------
First Bank of Tennessee asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Middle District of Florida to prohibit Mountain Wood Products, LLC
from using its cash collateral.

First Bank relates that the Debtor's equity interests are owned by
David and Sheryl Creely, who are debtors in a separate but related
bankruptcy case.

First Bank contends that it holds a mortgage and lien rights in
substantially all of the Debtor's property, which consists of a
wood drying and firewood plant located in Pikeville, Tennessee.
First Bank further contends that its loans are secured by first
liens on, among other property, the Debtor's inventory and accounts
receivable, and the proceeds thereof.

First Bank tells the Court that the Debtor listed significant
levels of inventory and accounts receivable on its Schedules.
First Bank believes that the Debtor and/or the Creeleys have been
removing and selling the Debtor's inventory from the Pikeville
Plant.  

First Bank says that the Debtor has not sought Court permission or
First Bank's consent to use the cash collateral.  First Bank
further says that its interest in the cash collateral is not
adequately protected and that it is asking the Court to prohibit
the Debtor from using cash collateral in an effort to prevent
further dissipation of the same.

NAVISTAR INTERNATIONAL: Volkswagen to Buy 19.9% Company Stake
-------------------------------------------------------------
Navistar International Corporation announced that it has formed a
wide-ranging strategic alliance with Volkswagen Truck & Bus, which
includes an equity investment in Navistar by Volkswagen Truck & Bus
and framework agreements for strategic technology and supply
collaboration and a procurement joint venture.

The agreements expected to be entered into in connection with the
alliance will enable Navistar to offer customers expanded access to
leading-edge products and services through collaboration on
technology and the licensing and supply of Volkswagen Truck & Bus's
products and components, while better optimizing its product
development spend.  The alliance will also strengthen Navistar's
liquidity position.  In addition, the procurement joint venture is
expected to leverage the purchasing power of Volkswagen Truck &
Bus's three major truck brands, Scania, MAN and Volkswagen
Caminhoes e Onibus, in addition to Navistar's own International and
IC Bus brands, providing Navistar with enhanced global scale.

Navistar expects significant synergies from both the strategic
technology collaboration and the procurement joint venture.  The
company expects the alliance to be accretive beginning in the first
year, and for cumulative synergies for Navistar to ramp up to at
least $500 million over the first five years.  By year five, it
expects the alliance will generate annual synergies of at least
$200 million for Navistar.  This annual run rate is expected to
grow materially thereafter as the companies continue to introduce
technologies from the collaboration.

"We are very pleased to partner with a global leader who shares our
view of the world, in an alliance that will deliver multiple
benefits and is consistent with our open-integration strategy,"
said Troy Clarke, president and CEO, Navistar.  "Starting in the
near term, this alliance will benefit our purchasing operations
through global scope and scale.  Over the longer term, it is
intended to expand the technology options we are able to offer our
customers by leveraging the best of both companies and enabling
Navistar to deliver enhanced uptime.  Volkswagen Truck & Bus's
equity investment will strengthen our liquidity position and expand
our financial flexibility, while aligning us with a valuable
strategic partner."

"Closer collaboration among our existing brands was a top priority
for our commercial vehicles business and we are well on track in
this context," said Andreas Renschler, CEO of Volkswagen Truck &
Bus and member of the Board of Management of Volkswagen AG
responsible for commercial vehicles.  "We are now taking the next
step on our way to becoming a Global Champion in the commercial
vehicles industry.  The strategic alliance with Navistar is an
important milestone and will be very beneficial for both sides."

Navistar said it will remain a leading, independent truck, bus and
engine company, focused on providing best-in-class products and
related services to its customers globally and delivering value for
its shareholders.

"We expect this alliance will create significant global scale,
yielding considerable cost savings for both companies," said Walter
Borst, executive vice president and chief financial officer,
Navistar.  "We believe working collaboratively, the two companies
can optimize the capital and engineering expenditures associated
with next-generation truck and bus engine development, while
providing both Navistar and Volkswagen Truck & Bus with
opportunities for substantial procurement savings.  This alliance
marks another step in Navistar's journey to be a stronger, more
profitable company."

                        Equity Investment

As part of the alliance, Volkswagen Truck & Bus will acquire 16.2
million newly issued shares in Navistar, representing 16.6% of
post-transaction undiluted common stock (or 19.9% of
pre-transaction outstanding common stock).  It will pay $15.76 per
share or a 25% premium over Navistar's 90-day volume weighted
average price as of Aug. 31, 2016, or 12% over Navistar's closing
price on Sept. 2, 2016.  Navistar will receive $256 million from
the equity investment to be used for general corporate purposes.

To underscore the long-term nature of the alliance, Volkswagen
Truck & Bus has agreed to hold these shares for a minimum of three
years.  Reflective of its shareholding post-transaction, Volkswagen
Truck & Bus will have the right to appoint two directors to
Navistar's board of directors.

                 Procurement Joint Venture

The procurement joint venture will help source parts for both
companies, providing Navistar and Volkswagen Truck & Bus with
greater scale and competitiveness.  It will also provide additional
opportunities for Navistar suppliers to gain access to potential
global sourcing opportunities, and create improved pricing for
end-customers.

                    Technology Sharing

The strategic technology and supply partnership builds on
Navistar's open integration strategy of partnering with the best
global companies in the industry to integrate cutting-edge
technology.  It is expected the partnership will focus on
powertrain technology solutions, as well as explore collaboration
in all aspects of commercial vehicle development, including
advanced driver assistance systems, connected vehicle solutions,
platooning and autonomous technologies, electric vehicles, and cab
and chassis components.  This enhanced collaboration will enable
the alliance to share the overall costs associated with future
vehicle development.

Navistar products will benefit from Volkswagen Truck & Bus
components and technology through licensing and supply agreements
entered into pursuant to the framework agreement for strategic
technology and supply collaboration, which longer term will
generate increased parts revenues.

                        Governance

The strategic alliance will receive oversight from an alliance
board, comprising top-level executives from both parties, which
will align the product development and procurement processes
between the companies.

               Timing and Conditions to Close

The closing of the share purchase agreement implementing the
strategic alliance is subject to certain regulatory approvals, the
finalization of the agreements governing the procurement joint
venture and the first contract under the technology and supply
framework agreement and other customary closing conditions.

J.P. Morgan is acting as financial advisor to Navistar and Sullivan
& Cromwell LLC is acting as legal advisor to Navistar.

                  Directors' Resignation

Michael N. Hammes and James H. Keyes each announced their
retirement from the Board of the Company effective upon the earlier
to occur of (i) the completion of the Share Issuance to VW T&B or
(ii) Navistar's 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.  As of Sept.
5, 2016, Mr. Hammes is chairman of the nominating & governance
committee and a member of the Finance Committee and Mr. Keyes is
Chairman of the Board, Chairman of the Audit Committee and a member
of the Finance Committee.  Neither retirement was in connection
with any disagreement with the Company pertaining to the Company's
operations, policies or practices.

NEURALSTEM INC: Recurring Losses Raise Going Concern Doubt
----------------------------------------------------------
Neuralstem, Inc., filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing a net loss of $3.85
million on $2,500 of revenues for the three months ended June 30,
2016, compared to a net loss of $5.45 million on $2,500 of revenues
for the same period in 2015.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company listed a net
loss of $10.46 million on $5,000 of revenues, compared to a net
loss of $10.50 million on $5,417 of revenues for the same period in
the prior year.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company had $13.29 million in total
assets, $12.46 million in total liabilities and a total
stockholders' equity of $836,491.

The Company has incurred losses since its inception and has not
demonstrated an ability to generate revenues from sales or services
and has not yet achieved profitable operations.  There can be no
assurance that profitable operations will ever be achieved, or if
achieved, could be sustained on a continuing basis.  In addition,
development activities, clinical and pre-clinical testing, and
commercialization of its products will require significant
additional financing.  These factors create substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

                       About Neuralstem

Neuralstem's patented technology enables the commercial-scale
production of multiple types of central nervous system stem cells,
which are being developed as potential therapies for many central
nervous system diseases and conditions.

Neuralstem's ability to generate neural stem cell lines from human
hippocampus, which were used for systematic chemical screening for
neurogenesis effect, has led to the discovery and patenting of
molecules that Neuralstem believes may stimulate the brain's
capacity to generate new neurons, potentially reversing
pathophysiologies associated with certain central nervous system
(CNS) conditions.

The Company has completed Phase 1a and 1b trials evaluating
NSI-189, its first neurogenic small molecule product candidate, for
the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD), and is expecting
to initiate a Phase 2 efficacy study for MDD in 2016.

Neuralstem's first stem cell product candidate, NSI-566, a spinal
cord-derived neural stem cell line, is under development for
treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).  Neuralstem has
completed two clinical studies, in a total of thirty patients,
which met primary safety endpoints.  In addition to ALS, NSI-566 is
also in a Phase 1 study to treat paralysis due to chronic spinal
cord injury, as well as in a Phase 1 study to treat paralysis from
ischemic stroke.


NEW PHOENIX: Secured Lender Seeks Ch. 11 Trustee
------------------------------------------------
Branch Banking & Trust Co. filed a motion asking the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas to appoint a
Chapter 11 Trustee for New Phoenix Metals, LTD. and Carl Equipment,
LTD.

The relationship between BB&T and the Debtors arose in late 2012
when BB&T made two secured loans to New Phoenix. The loans were
secured by real property and personal property of New Phoenix. The
loans were also guaranteed by various entities and persons,
including debtor Carl Equipment, Ltd.

Debtor New Phoenix Metals, Ltd. and non-debtor affiliate Carl
Holdings, Ltd., executed as makers a certain promissory note in the
original principal amount of $832,000 in favor of BB&T, which
evidenced a loan from BB&T to New Phoenix in that amount. Also, New
Phoenix and Holdings executed as makers a certain Promissory Note
in the original principal amount of $2,500,000 in favor of BB&T,
which evidenced a line of credit from BB&T to New Phoenix in that
amount. One of the requirements of the $2.5 million Loan Agreement
was that New Phoenix was to provide monthly to BB&T a Loan Base
Report.

BB&T asserts that New Phoenix, through its management, has
committed pre-bankruptcy fraud against BB&T through misstating
borrowing base certificates. In addition, the management also
engaged in pre-billing to artificially inflate the little actual
income it received and likewise, sold BB&T's collateral
pre-petition without authorization despite actual knowledge of
BB&T's blanket lien and outstanding debt, BB&T further asserts.

BB&T tells the Court that it no longer has any faith in the
management of the Debtor and therefore requests appointment of a
chapter 11 trustee.

NEW STREAMWOOD: Can Use Cash Collateral Until Sept. 12
------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois
authorized New Streamwood Lanes, Inc., to use the cash collateral
of Waterfall Olympic Master Fund Grantor Trust, Series II, from
Aug. 10, 2016, through Sept. 12, 2016.

The Debtor is indebted to Waterfall Olympic in the amount of
$3,025,305.  As security for the repayment of the indebtedness, the
Debtor granted Waterfall Olympic security interests in the Debtor's
commercial assets, real estate, and any and all rents, revenues,
income, profits and proceeds generated from the real estate and
commercial assets.

The Debtor represented that without the use of cash collateral, it
does not have sufficient available sources of working capital and
financing to operate its real estate or business operations in the
ordinary course of business, or operate its business and maintain
its property in accordance with state and federal law.

The approved Budget for the month of September 2016 provided for
total expenses in the amount of $80,317.

Olympic Waterfall was granted replacement liens on all the Debtor's
assets, to the same extent, validity and priority as existed on the
Petition Date.

The Debtor was directed to make monthly adequate protection
payments to Olympic Waterfall in the amount of $6,188.

A hearing on the Debtor's Cash Collateral Motion is scheduled on
Sept. 7, 2016 at 10:30 a.m.

NEWLEAD HOLDINGS: Perian Salviola Reports 8.7% Stake as of Sept. 2
------------------------------------------------------------------
In an amended Schedule 13G filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, Perian Salviola disclosed that as of Sept. 2, 2016, he
beneficially owned 71,500,000 shares of common stock of Newlead
Holdings, Ltd., representing 8.7 percent calculated on the basis of
825,081,108 shares of the Company's Common Stock issued and
outstanding as of Aug. 31, 2016.  

The shares owned by the Reporting Person were issued in connection
with the sale to a subsidiary of the Company by Pallas Highwall
Mining LLC of Viking Prep Plant, LLC.

In the Viking Prep Plant transaction, as part of the consideration,
the Company issued a convertible note in the original principal
amount of $24,000,000.  On or about September 2016, the Company
issued the Reporting Person 71,500,000 shares toward payment of
that note.  The Company has the option to pay the principal and
interest in cash or shares of common stock.  The acquisition
agreement also includes a true-up of the proceeds from such shares,
but the amount cannot be calculated until such time as all shares
issued as consideration of the purchase price have been sold.  The
Company has previously issued shares to the Reporting Person, all
of which have been sold.

NOVELIS CORP: Moody's Assigns B2 Rating to Notes Offering
---------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B2 rating to Novelis
Corporation's new $1.5 billion senior unsecured guaranteed notes
offering. The notes will have a downstream guarantee from Novelis
Corporation's parent, Novelis Inc. (Novelis) and will also be
guaranteed by all of Novelis' existing and future restricted
subsidiaries in the US and Canada and by certain of its foreign
restricted subsidiaries. All other ratings, including Novelis' B1
corporate family rating (CFR), B1-PD probability of default rating,
Ba2 rating on the senior secured credit facility, B2 rating on
existing unsecured notes, and SGL-2 speculative grade liquidity
rating remain unchanged as does the B2 rating on Novelis
Corporation's senior unsecured guaranteed notes due 2024. The
outlook is stable.

The proceeds from the issuance will be used to tender for Novelis'
existing $1.4 billion 8.75% senior unsecured notes rated B2 that
are due in 2020. Upon repayment, the rating on these notes will be
withdrawn.

Assignments:

   Issuer: Novelis Corporation

   -- Backed Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Assigned B2
      (LGD5)

RATINGS RATIONALE

The B1 Corporate Family Rating (CFR) considers Novelis' focus on
creating a more value added business as it expands its auto sheet
finishing capacity to capture increasing use of aluminum in the
automotive market while reducing more commodity type business. The
rating acknowledges the company's large scale, significant market
position, and global footprint in the aluminum rolled products
market, which includes a dominant position in the beverage and food
can sheet segment and good positions in industrial and other high
end specialties such as electronics. The CFR also reflects the
expectation for a growing percentage of earnings to come from more
value added products.

At the same time, the rating reflects the variability of Novelis'
sales to end markets, the sensitivity of its earnings to volume
levels given the level of fixed costs, which have increased
following the recent expansions, and the relatively thinner margins
associated with the can sheet business.

The stable outlook reflects the improving earnings trends Novelis
evidenced in the second half of 2016 and the first quarter of 2017
(June 30, 2016) as exemplified by good growth in EBITDA, as well as
gross and EBIT margins. This results from the strengthening value
add product mix driven by increasing automotive sheet shipments
(15% of total shipments in 2016 versus 7% in 2013). With all three
automotive heat treatment lines at Oswego, NY now completed and
producing, as well as the second line at Nachterstedt, Germany,
earnings improvement is expected to continue. In addition, the
absence of ramp up costs, start-up costs and other issues with the
recycling facility at Nachterstedt, and productivity gains achieved
on enhanced operational and efficiency focus, will also enhance
earnings and cash flow generation. The outlook also considers that
although debt protection metrics and leverage, as measured by the
debt/EBITDA ratio, remain high for the rating, they are similarly
showing improving trends.

The Ba2 senior secured term loan rating reflects the benefit of the
loan's first priority lien on PP&E and stock and second priority
lien on inventory and accounts receivables. Given the guarantee
structure on the senior unsecured notes being issued by Novelis
Corporation, these notes rank pari passu with the senior unsecured
notes issued by Novelis The B2 rating of the senior unsecured notes
at both Novelis Corporation and Novelis reflects their effective
subordination to the significant amount of secured debt under the
term loan and ABL revolver (unrated).

The SGL-2 Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating reflects our
expectations that Novelis will maintain good liquidity over the
next four quarters. Novelis' liquidity is supported by its
$457million cash position at June 30, 2016 and a $1.2 billion
asset-based revolving credit facility (ABL) that expires in October
2019. The ABL is secured by accounts receivables and inventory. At
June 30, 2016, approximately $431 million was drawn under the ABL
while $11 million was utilized for letters of credit; availability
was $240 million. In addition, the company has revolving credit
facilities in Korea to support its operations in that country as
well as facilities at Novelis Middle East and Africa and Novelis
China. The $1.1 billion in notes maturing in December 2017 were
recently repaid through a new issuance (due 2024) by Novelis
Corporation. Consequently the company has no near-term debt
maturities.

An upgrade is unlikely at this time due to the company's more
leveraged profile following the balance sheet recapitalization in
its calendar 2014 year and weak earnings performance subsequently.
However the rating could be favorably impacted should the company
trend toward and demonstrate the ability to sustain EBIT/interest
above 4x, debt/EBITDA below 4.25x and (operating cash flow less
dividends)/debt of at least 20%.

The rating could be downgraded should the company experience
sustained volume and margin declines or should the improving trends
in performance and debt protection metrics reverse. Quantitatively,
ratings could be downgraded if leverage as measured by the
debt/EBITDA ratio does not trend toward 5x, EBIT/interest not show
a trend to at least 2x or free cash flow remains negative. A
significant contraction in liquidity or availability under the ABL
or further material dividend payments could also negatively affect
the rating.

The principal methodology used in this rating was Global Steel
Industry published in October 2012.

Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, Novelis is the world's largest
producer of aluminum rolled products. The company operates through
four regional segments: North America (33% of third party shipments
for the year ending March 31, 2016), Europe (29% of third party
shipments), Asia (23% of third party shipments), and South America
(15% of third party shipments). While Novelis sells into a number
of end markets, the company currently ships a meaningful level to
the can sheet market, although sales to the automotive market are
increasing as a percentage of total shipments. For the twelve
months ended June 30, 2016 Novelis generated approximately $9.5
billion of revenues.

Novelis is ultimately 100% owned by Hindalco Industries Limited
(Hindalco - unrated), domiciled in India.

PETROLEX MANAGEMENT: Court Authorizes Cash Collateral Use
---------------------------------------------------------
Judge Christopher J. Panos of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Massachusetts authorized Petrolex Management, LLC, to
use cash collateral.

The Debtor is indebted to:

PHARMACYTE BIOTECH: Incurs $1.03M Net Loss in July 31 Quarter
-------------------------------------------------------------
Pharmacyte Biotech, Inc., filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing a net loss
of $1.03 million on $0 of revenue for the three months ended
July 31, 2016, compared to a net loss of $1.51 million on $0 of
revenue for the three months ended July 31, 2015.

As of July 31, 2016, Pharmacyte had $7.52 million in total assets,
$456,460 in total liabilities and $7.06 million in total
stockholders' equity.

During the quarter ended July 31, 2016, funding was provided by
investors to maintain and expand the Company.  The remaining
challenges, beyond the regulatory and clinical aspects, include
accessing funding for the Company to cover its future cash flow
needs.  Through the period July 31, 2016, the Company continued to
acquire funds through the Company's S-3 Registration Statement
pursuant to which its exclusive placement agent, Chardan Capital
Markets, LLC, sold shares of common stock "at-the-market" or in
negotiated block trades in a program which is structured to provide
up to $50 million dollars to the Company less certain commissions.

The Company said it requires substantial additional capital to
finance its planned business operations and expects to incur
operating losses in future periods due to the expenses related to
the Company's core businesses.  The Company has not realized
material revenue since it commenced doing business in the
biotechnology sector, and there can be no assurance that it will be
successful in generating revenues in the future in this sector.
The Company believes that cash as of July 31, 2016, the sales of
unregistered shares of its common stock and any public offerings of
common stock the Company may engage in will provide sufficient
capital to meet its capital requirements and to fund its operations
through July 31, 2017.  However, the Company's ability to raise
additional capital is limited by its inability to use a short form
registration statement on Form S-3.  As of Sept. 6, 2016, the
Company does not meet the eligibility requirements in order for it
to be able to conduct a primary offering of its common stock under
Form S-3 or to file a new Registration Statement on Form S-3.  The
Company may be able to regain the use of Form S-3 if it meets one
or both of the eligibility criteria, including: (i) the aggregate
market value of the Company's common stock held by non-affiliates
exceeds $75 million; or (ii) the common stock is listed and
registered on a national securities exchange.

"If the Company is not able to raise substantial additional capital
in a timely manner, the Company may not be able to commence or
complete its planned clinical trials.

"The Company will continue to be dependent on outside capital to
fund its research and operating expenditures for the foreseeable
future.  If the Company fails to generate positive cash flows or
fails to obtain additional capital when required, the Company may
need to modify, delay or abandon some or all of its business
plans.

"The Company's goal is to become an industry-leading biotechnology
company using the Cell-in-a-Box technology as a platform upon which
therapies for cancer and diabetes are developed and obtain
marketing approval for these therapies from regulatory agencies in
the U.S., the European Union, Australia and Canada."

PHOTOMEDEX INC: To Acquire Neova Skincare Business for $1.8-Mil.
----------------------------------------------------------------
PhotoMedex, Inc., and its subsidiary PhotoMedex Technology, Inc.,
entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Pharma Cosmetics
Laboratories Ltd., an Israeli corporation, and its subsidiary

PICO HOLDINGS: Bloggers Find Workaround To John Hart Bonus Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
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 $662 million in assets and $426 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 continue to cast dispersion on PICO CEO John Hart's
estimate that homebuilder subsidiary UCP is worth $15 per share.  

They state: "While Juicer is fond of the $15 UCP price from 2013,
he has never explained how the market could underestimate UCP's
value by 44% (current price $8.40). Such a conclusion is even more
improbable given that the market has 3 more years of UCP financial
results, the housing panorama is strong and UCP has produced robust
improvement its income statement metrics.

Juicer fails to justify his $15 UCP price because it is not
justifiable. When an appropriate provision for taxes is included,
UCP earned $8.7 million or $.46 cents per share over the last 12
months. At $15, UCP would trade at 33 times trailing earnings
($15/$.46=33). That's a growth technology valuation, Juicer.

The strongest competitors in the homebuilding industry trade at
14-15 times earnings. Implying to shareholders that UCP should
trade at 33 times earnings is unfortunately how the Juicer rolls --
he's always talking up his book."

Next, the bloggers reverse-engineer the $15 price for UCP. "At an
industry average multiple of 13, UCP would need to earn $1.15 per
share to be worth $15 ($15/13=$1.15). UCP just earned $.46 per
share, so it comes up about $.69 cents per share short. Given 19
million shares, UCP would need to earn $22 million in net income
($1.15 x 19m=$22m) to justify a $15 per share.

If UCP earned $8.7 million over the last year, and it needs to earn
$22 million to be worth $15 per share, then UCP needs to increase
net by 152%. In other words, UCP would have to grow net income 25%
per year, every year, for the next 5 years to earn $22 million. Or
it would have to grow net income 35% per year, every year, for the
next 3 years to earn $22 million. Is anyone dumb enough to take
that bet besides Juicer?

Fractional interests in UCP currently sell for $8.40. UCP earned
$.46 per share in the last year. UCP trades at 18 times trailing
earnings ($8.40/$.46=18).

Given that the strongest homebuilders trade at 14-15 times trailing
earnings, UCP's 18 multiple appears generous. Why is Juicer saying
UCP is undervalued?

The bloggers want readers left with three important takeaways.
"First, Juicer is nonsensically talking up his book to justify his
self-interested delay in selling UCP. With a $1 million annual base
salary and a Bonus for asset sales above book value, Juicer is
content to risk shareholder value for a personal financial
windfall. At 33 times earnings, his $15 UCP price is more than pie
in the sky. It is like Baked Alaska in the sky.

Second, on a going concern, operational basis, UCP is fairly valued
in the $8-$11 per share range and we see no justification for it to
trade higher in the next 1-2 years. If investors and Directors
place any faith in Juicer's $15 per share, they should check their
math. If PICO Directors are holding out to unload UCP for $15 per
share, they should check their math.

Third, our numbers prove that PICO can create the greatest value
for shareowners by selling UCP now. UCP is a long, long way from
$22 million in net income – the figure which would justify $15
per share. With this economic expansion growing wrinkled with age,
and UCP's 2017 sketchy debt refinancing ahead, there is
considerable risk in waiting for such an improbable result.

The bloggers have discovered a way around CEO Hart's onerous Bonus
Plan. They humorously call it, "Juice The Juicer." First, they
offer some background. "Let's review a few pertinent provisions of
the criminal Hart Bonus Plan. The Net Gain is the asset sale
proceeds less book value (at Dec. 31, 2015), less certain bonuses
and administrative expenses. The Compensation Committee is
responsible for all Bonus calculations and their word is final.
Juicer's Bonus is derived from the percentage of proceeds returned
to shareowners.

This last provision – that the Bonus is derived from the
percentage of proceeds returned to shareowners – is the key to
“Juice The Juicer.”

A simplified example will illustrate.

We calculate the book value of PICO's investment in UCP at Dec. 31,
2015, at roughly $10.55 per share. Let's say PICO sells UCP for $13
per share. PICO would receive total proceeds of $143 million (11m
units x $13=$143m).

At $13 per share, the gain above book value would be $2.45 per
share, or $27 million (11m units x $2.45=$27m). Of the $27 million,
about $4 million would go to UCP transaction expenses and another
$10 million would go to PICO administrative expenses for 2016. This
would leave $13 million in Net Gain ($27-$10-$4=$13m), which could
potentially be the basis for a Juicer Bonus of $2.6 million ($13m x
.2 = $2.6m).

For Juicer to earn a Bonus, PICO would have to return all the UCP
sale proceeds, including that $13 million Net Gain, to shareowners.
However, if the PICO Board returns everything to shareowners,
EXCEPT THE NET GAIN, there's no Bonus for Juicer!

But wait – what is PICO going to do with that $13 million?
Shareholders want their capital back! And we want it back now!

First, of the hypothetical $143 million, PICO would return $130
million to shareholders immediately. The $130 million corresponds
to UCP's book value plus the amounts allocated to
bonuses/administrative expenses. These sums are not eligible for
inclusion in the Net Gain or the Bonus.

Second, recall that on the Q2 earnings call, Daniel Mannes, of
Avondale Partners, asked PICO CFO Max 'Tangled' Webb about PICO's
burn rate. Tangled Webb responded that PICO's annual expenses in
2016 would run $10.5 million, but would come down to $9.5 million
in 2017.

Instead of allocating the $13 million Net Gain to PICO shareowners
and paying Juicer a bonus in the process, PICO could bank the money
and use it for corporate expenses. At a burn rate of $9.5 million
annually, the $13 million hypothetical Net Gain would cover
corporate expenses for 16 months.

The Bonus Plan is clear: If the Net Gain is not returned to
shareowners, there is no Bonus.

One more set of numbers that is important to PICO Directors and
shareowners: at $14 per share, $130 million in UCP sales proceeds
could buy in over 9 million shares, or about 40%. (We use $14 per
share cuz a UCP sale announcement would drive PICO's stock up –
wouldn't that be a novelty for PICO shareholders!).

Would Juicer initiate litigation? Probably. But that's okay.
Juicer will likely litigate any matter in which he calculates a
difference of $1 between the expected outcome and his cost of
litigation. No shareholder would blame this Board for a few million
bucks in Juicer litigation in exchange for unloading assets now.

The criminal Hart Bonus Plan is clear: Bonus is based on the
percentage of Net Gain returned to shareowners. The Comp Committee
has the final word on execution of the criminal Hart Bonus Plan.
The PICO Board has the final word on capital allocation. PICO could
sell assets and return book value plus expenses to shareowners,
while keeping the Net Gain for internal expenses. Shareowners get
enormous value creation and Juicer gets no Bonus.

The Board should act now. 2016 will be the highest administrative
expense year for Net Gain calculation purposes. This will shield a
few extra million dollars from the Net Gain, than will be the case
in 2017 and beyond."


RYCKMAN CREEK: Has Until October 29 to File Chapter 11 Plan
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Kevin J. Carey of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District
of Delaware extended Ryckman Creek Resources, LLC, et. al.'s
exclusive periods to file and solicit acceptances of a chapter 11
plan to October 29, 2016 and December 28, 2016, respectively.

The Debtors exclusive period to file a chapter 11 plan expired on
August 30, 2016, while their exclusive period to solicit

2016.

The Debtors contended that they had already filed their Second
Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization, as well as their
Modified Third Amended Disclosure Statement.  The Debtors further
contended that the Court had approved the adequacy of their
Disclosure Statement and certain procedures for soliciting votes on
their Plan, and that they had already commenced solicitation of
votes on the Plan.  The Debtors added that a hearing to consider
confirmation of the Plan was scheduled for September 7, 2016.

The Debtors told the Court that they are filing their Motion out of
an abundance of caution to ensure that, in the event the Plan is
not confirmed at the Confirmation Hearing, or the timeline for
confirmation shifts for any reason, the Debtors retain the
exclusive right to propose a new plan of reorganization, solicit
votes on a plan of reorganization, retain control over their
reorganization, and remain at the center of negotiations with their
key constituencies.

SM ENERGY: Moody's Gives B3 Rating to New $500MM Sr. Unsec. Notes
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B3 rating to SM Energy
Company's (SM Energy) proposed offering of $500 million senior
unsecured notes due 2026. SM Energy's other ratings and stable
outlook remain unchanged. The note proceeds will be used to
partially fund the recently announced Permian Basin acquisition and
for general corporate purposes.

"Although this debt issuance will increase financial leverage, we
expect SM Energy to aggressively look for non-core asset sale
opportunities and reduce debt in the coming quarters to ensure
sufficient financial flexibility in a protracted period of low
commodity prices," said Sajjad Alam, Moody's AVP-Analyst.

Assignments:

   Issuer: SM Energy Company

   -- US$500M Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Assigned B3

      (LGD4)

RATINGS RATIONALE

The new notes will rank pari passu with SM Energy's existing senior
notes, and were assigned the same B3 rating. The senior notes have
an unsecured claim to SM Energy's assets and have no subsidiary
guarantees. Given the priority claim to the company's assets and
the significant size of the senior secured revolving credit
facility, the unsecured notes are rated one notch below the B2
Corporate Family Rating (CFR) under Moody's Loss Given Default
Methodology.

SM Energy should have adequate liquidity through 2017, which is
captured in the SGL-3 rating. As of July 27, 2016, approximately
$920 million was available under the company's $1.25 billion
revolving credit facility. In August 2016, SM Energy closed a $531
million equity offering and a $166.4 million convertible note
offering to fund its previously announced $980 million Rock Oil
acquisition in the Permian Basin. This debt offering will help
cover the balance of the purchase price and reduce revolver
borrowings. The company also expects to receive $172.5 million in
third quarter 2016 from the sale of certain New Mexico, North
Dakota and Montana assets that will provide additional liquidity.

The B2 CFR reflects SM Energy's high financial leverage through
2017 as well as its declining production and cash flow trends. Low
commodity prices have pressured management to sharply scale back
capital expenditures and drilling activities resulting in steep
volume declines in its unconventional shale properties. SM has
historically maintained low leverage and entered this downturn with
a healthier balance sheet than many of its peers. However, given
the severity and the prolonged nature of the commodity price
downturn, leverage will jump in 2017 as hedges expire and
production continues to dwindle. The company plans to run fewer
rigs and manage its capital budget within operating cash flow for
as long as commodity prices remain depressed. The company also
intends to focus on completing previously drilled but uncompleted
wells over the near term to preserve capital and slow production
declines. The B2 CFR is supported by SM Energy's significant
production platform in the Eagle Ford, balanced product mix, track
record of low-cost and efficient operations and significant
near-term hedge book. The recent Permian Basin acquisition should
increase SM Energy's oil production, diversification and the
longevity of its asset portfolio.

The stable outlook reflects SM Energy's adequate liquidity and
minimal projected negative free cash flow. The rating could be
upgraded if the company can stabilize its production profile, show
an improving trend in its leverage and sustain a RCF/debt ratio
above 20%. A downgrade is likely if the RCF/Debt ratio falls below
10% or if liquidity becomes weak.

The principal methodology used in this rating was Global
Independent Exploration and Production Industry published in
December 2011.

SM Energy Company is an independent exploration and production
company based in Denver, Colorado.


SNAP INTERACTIVE: Maturing Notes Raises Going Concern Doubt
-----------------------------------------------------------

Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, disclosing a net loss

TEGNA INC: Moody's Puts Ba1 CFR on Review for Downgrade
-------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service placed TEGNA Inc.'s (TEGNA) Ba1 Corporate
Family Rating on review for downgrade following the company's
announcement that it plans to dispose of the bulk of its digital
assets including Cars.com, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and its 53%
ownership in CareerBuilder (consolidated). TEGNA is motivated to
part with these assets given weak equity credit and limited
operational synergies with its broadcast business. In connection
with these transactions, there will be changes in leadership with
new CEO's at TEGNA and Cars.com. The rating action considers the
loss of growth from Cars.com, the combined EBITDA contribution of
both assets, and the benefits of scale and diversification created
by these assets which have been a positive rating factor. Without
these assets, which represent close to 40% of the company's current
revenue mix, the company will be significantly less diversified,
much smaller in scale, and likely experience slower top line
growth.

TEGNA is planning a tax-free spin-off of Cars.com, scheduled to
close in early 2017. The standalone company will be publically
traded under the ticker symbol CARS, and recapitalized to fund a
one-time cash dividend payable to TEGNA immediately prior to
closing. Completion of the spin-off will be subject to certain
conditions, including Board approval, tax clearance, and SEC
regulatory filings. Following the spin-off, TEGNA will temporarily
suspend its share repurchase program and re-evaluate its dividend
policy.

In a separate but concurrent process, the company is evaluating
strategic alternatives for CareerBuilder, including a possible sale
- timing to be determined.

The Probability of Default as well as all instrument level ratings
have also been placed under review for downgrade including the
Company's Ba1 senior unsecured bank credit facility rating and Ba1
senior unsecured ratings. The Outlook is also was placed under
review from Negative.

On Review for Downgrade:

   Issuer: TEGNA Inc.

   -- Probability of Default Rating, Placed on Review for
      Downgrade, currently Ba1-PD

   -- Corporate Family Rating, Placed on Review for Downgrade,
      currently Ba1

   -- Senior Unsecured Shelf, Placed on Review for Downgrade,
      currently (P)Ba1

   -- Senior Unsecured Bank Credit Facility, Placed on Review for
      Downgrade, currently Ba1 (LGD3)

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Placed on Review
      for Downgrade, currently Ba1 (LGD3)

   Issuer: Belo Corp. (Assumed by TEGNA Inc.)

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Placed on Review
      for Downgrade, currently Ba1 (LGD3)

Outlook Actions:

   Issuer: TEGNA Inc.

   -- Outlook, Changed To Rating Under Review From Negative

Rating Unchanged:

   Issuer: TEGNA Inc.

   -- Commercial Paper unchanged at NP

   -- Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating unchanged at SGL-1

RATINGS RATIONALE

The proposed transactions are credit negative, despite the
potential to be leverage neutral if transaction proceeds are
substantial and sufficiently allocated to retire enough debt to
fully offset the loss of EBITDA. Moody's said, “Using the most
recent leverage ratio (Moody's adjusted, debt / 2 year average LTM
EBITDA) near 4x, and an assumption for the 2 year average EBITDA
contribution from the broadcast business only, we estimate the
company will need to generate, and use as debt reduction, at least
$500 million in proceeds from these transactions to hold leverage
constant.”

These transactions are likely to benefit shareholders if the
transactions are executed at similar market valuations with
transaction multiples much greater than the broadcast sector.
However, it would also effectively unwind the majority of the
company's digital investments, leaving behind an insignificant base
of digital assets. This appears to be an aggressive retrench that
runs counter to many of its peers who are investing more heavily in
digital assets in an effort to capture the shift in ad share. While
these assets generate limited operating synergies and
Careerbuilder's operating performance has been weak, the strength
in Cars.com, the combined EBITDA contribution of both assets, and
the benefits of scale and diversification created by these assets
has been a positive rating factor. Without these assets, which
represent close to 40% of the company's current revenue mix, the
company will be significantly less diversified, much smaller in
scale, and likely experience slower top line growth.

Our review will mainly focus on the new capital structure of the
legacy TEGNA broadcast business, revised fundamental projections,
changes to the company's financial policy, the company's digital
strategy going forward, and the implications of a less diversified
and smaller scale business with a very limited base of high growth
digital assets. Assuming the company plans to operate at a smaller
scale without the benefits of similar digital assets, leverage
would need to fall meaningfully from the current level and key
rating factors of the pro forma company would need to be consistent
with the current rating level to consider an confirmation of the
Ba1 rating.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global
Broadcast and Advertising Related Industries published in May 2012.


TEGNA Inc. (formerly known as Gannett Co., Inc.), is a leading
broadcaster (56% of reported revenue for LTM June 30, 2016) with

VERIFONE INC: Moody's Says Ba2 Rating Unaffected By Drop in Revenue
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Services said that Verifone, Inc.'s
weaker-than-expected revenues in the third fiscal quarter ended
July 2016 and expectations of revenue decline in 2017 are credit
negative. The company's declining revenues and EBITDA will cause
its leverage to remain at the higher end of expected range.
However, Verifone's Ba2 Corporate Family Rating and stable ratings
outlook are not affected at this time.


WALTER INVESTMENT: Moody's Cuts Corporate Family Rating to Caa1
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service taken the following rating actions with
respect to Walter Investment Management Corp. (Walter):

   -- Corporate Family Rating, Downgraded to Caa1 from B3;
      negative outlook assigned

   -- Senior Unsecured Rating, Downgraded to Caa2 from Caa1;
      negative outlook assigned

   -- Senior Secured Bank Credit Facility, Affirmed B3; negative
      outlook assigned

RATINGS RATIONALE

The rating actions reflect the decline in the company's tangible
common equity along with the company's continued weak
profitability. Moody's expects that near-term profitability will
remain constrained and its ability to significantly reduce its
financial leverage will be limited.

The B3 rating of the senior secured bank credit facility and the
Caa2 rating of the senior unsecured debt reflects our notching
analysis which incorporates their priority of claim and strength of
asset coverage.

In the first half of 2016, the company lost $658 million before
taxes, driven by a $215 million goodwill and $386 million MSR fair
value impairment. Even excluding these items, the company had a
pre-tax loss of $57 million as the company has been grappling with
elevated operating costs due to the heightened regulatory
environment. While the company continues to embark on a number of
cost cutting initiatives, near-term profitability is expected to
continue to be modest.

As a result of the company's weak profitability and debt-financed
growth, its financial leverage is very high and unlikely to
significantly improve. As of 30 June 2016, the company's tangible
common equity (TCE) to tangible assets was 1.0%, a drop from 1.9%
as of year-end 2015.

The negative outlook reflects our expectation that profitability
will continue to be weak at least through year end 2017.

Given the negative outlook, it is unlikely that the company's
ratings will be upgraded. The outlook could return to stable if the
company's profitability improves and if leverage declines. For
example, sustainable pre-tax income above 0.5% and TCE to tangible
assets above 2.5% would be viewed positively as would a lengthening
of its debt maturity profile.

The ratings could be downgraded if the company's financial
performance does not improve over the next 12-18 months, such as if
the company is unable to demonstrate sustained GAAP profitability
or if TCE to tangible assets is expected to be below 2.5% at
year-end 2017.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Finance
Companies published in October 2015.


WAYZATA-ROCHESTER 16: Can Use Access Point Cash Until Oct. 31
-------------------------------------------------------------
Judge William J. Fisher of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Minnesota authorized Wayzata-Rochester 16 Hospitality
Associates, LLC to use the cash collateral of Access Point
Financial, Inc., until October 31, 2016, pursuant to a Stipulation
between the Debtor and Access Point.

The Debtor is indebted to Access Point in the amount of $6,631,347,
plus legal expenses related to the bankruptcy case, and all
interest, fees, costs, legal expenses and other amounts accruing
thereon or at any time chargeable to the Debtor.  The indebtedness
was secured by, among others, a security interest in and liens upon
all the Debtor's personal property and other rights to payments.

The Debtor contended that it did not have sufficient available
sources of working capital to carry on the continued operation of
is business.  It further contended that potentially irreparable
harm to the Debtor, its creditors and its estate may occur absent
authorization for the use of cash collateral.

Access Point was granted a replacement lien and security interest
in all the Debtor's property of the same types as Access Point's
collateral, and on their products and proceeds.  Access Point was
also granted an administrative priority claim against all assets of
the estate, to the extent that the protections afforded Access
Point prove to be inadequate to protect its interest.

A final hearing on the Debtor's Motion is scheduled on Oct. 31,
2016 at 1:30 p.m.

WILLIAM BEDDIE: Modifies Plan of Reorganization
-----------------------------------------------
William T. Beddie filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of California a combined proposed first modified
Chapter 11 plan of reorganization and disclosure statement amended
Aug. 17, 2016.

Under the First Modified Plan, Class 4 general unsecured creditors
will recover 5% of their allowed claims.  Class 4 creditors will be
paid in four quarterly installments, due on the 10th day of the
quarter.  This class is impaired and is entitled to vote on
confirmation of the Plan.

The Debtor will not receive a discharge of debts until Debtor makes
all payments due under the Plan or the court grants a hardship
discharge.

On the Effective Date, all property of the estate and interests of
the Debtor will vest in the reorganized Debtor free and clear of
all claims and interests except as provided in the Plan, subject to
revesting upon conversion to Chapter 7.

Obligations to creditors that Debtor undertakes in the confirmed
Plan replace those obligations to creditors that existed prior to
the Effective Date of the Plan.  The Debtor's obligations under the
confirmed Plan constitute binding contractual promises that, if not
satisfied through performance of the Plan, create a basis for an
action for breach of contract under California law.  To the extent
a creditor retains a lien under the Plan, that creditor retains all
rights provided by such lien under applicable non-Bankruptcy law.

The Disclosure Statement is available at:

          http://bankrupt.com/misc/caeb12-33885-142.pdf

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 8, 2016, the
Debtor filed a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization, which also
proposed to pay general unsecured creditors 5% of their claims in
four quarterly installments.  These creditors assert a total of
$273,105 in claims.  

William T. Beddie sought protection under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. E.D. Calif. Case No. 12-33885) on July 30,
2012, and is represented by John Gregory Downing, Esq., at Downing
Law Offices, in Truckee, California.

ZIO'S RESTAURANT: Files for Ch. 11 Bankruptcy to Close 5 Stores
---------------------------------------------------------------
A restaurant chain specializing in the Italian cuisine has filed a
voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code citing,
among other things, a "depressed" casual dining environment and
high rental cost.

Zio's Restaurant Company, LLC and 16 of its subsidiaries commenced
the Chapter 11 cases on Sept. 7, 2016, owing roughly $2.3 million
of unsecured debt consisting of trade payables and other operating
expenses such as rent and past-due taxes.  As of the Petition Date,
the Debtors owe approximately $245,000 in outstanding taxes and
fees.  The Debtors have no secured creditor.

Founded in 1994 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, the Zios' concept
operated a full-service chain restaurant since 2007.  As of the
Petition Date, there were 15 stores, all of which operate in leased
premises located in Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, New Mexico
and Colorado.  The Debtors employ 875 personnel.  At one time, the
Zios' concept was expanded to 21 locations, Court documents show.

The Debtors intend to close five restaurants located in Texas,
Missouri and New Mexico, subject to the Court's approval, and are
evaluating the remaining 11 operating locations for closure as
well.  The Debtors have hired Auction Nation, LLC, to conduct the
sale of all furniture, fixtures, and equipment at any locations to
be closed by them, free and clear of all liens, claims, and
encumbrances, also subject to the approval of the Court.

A series of factors have contributed to the Debtors' operational
challenges and ultimately resulted in the need to file the Chapter
11 cases.  According to the Debtors, following the initial
expansion to 21 locations, they were unable to continue to grow the
Zios' concept and revenues due to general economic factors beyond
their control.

"[T]he Debtors' operations and financial performance have been
adversely impacted by the overall weakness in the casual dining
environment," said John E. Mitchell, Esq., at Akerman LLP, one of
the Debtors' attorneys.  "The casual dining industry is highly
competitive and faces increased competition from fast-casual dining
options.  Despite the relatively steady economy in most of the
United States, the casual dining environment remains depressed," he
said.

In addition, the Debtors said their revenues have been further
impacted by the decline in the prices of crude oil and natural gas,
higher rental rates and increased costs of goods, services and
employees.  

In response to these developments, the Debtors maintained they
have, among other things, significantly reduced spending and
implemented a series of cost-cutting measures, including, among
other things, closing of certain locations, streamlining costs for
good and services, and negotiating with landlords.

"Despite the best efforts of the Debtors and their management to
actively reduce their operational and financial costs, the
significant and prolonged downturn in market conditions in the oil
and gas sector and the competitive and declining casual chain
market and rental market have caused the Debtors' revenues to
decrease and the need for filing for bankruptcy," Mr. Mitchell
added.

Zios focuses on providing Italian cuisine in a casual and
comfortable open-aire piazza.  Zios offers appetizers, soups and
salads, pastas, specialties, calzones and sandwiches, pizzas,
drinks, wine, desserts, kid's menu, pronto lunches, and gluten free
menu options.

The Debtors' business operations are, and have been, managed by FMP
SA Management Group, LLC -- which is owed an unsecured amount of
$834,801 -- pursuant to a management agreement.  FMP, a privately
held company based in Hollywood Park, Texas, is a multi-concept
developer and operator of independent restaurant chains.

Zio's Restaurant is the sole member of each of Debtors FMPRG # 601,
LLC, FMPRG # 602, LLC, FMPRG # 603, LLC, FMPRG # 604, LLC, FMPRG #
605, LLC, FMPRG # 606, LLC, FMPRG # 607, LLC, FMPRG # 608, LLC,

--------------------------------------------------------
Sarah Chaney, writing for The Wall Street Journal Pro Bankruptcy,
reported that the owner of Zio's Italian Kitchen restaurant chain
filed for bankruptcy on Sept. 7, 2016, joining a wave of casual
eateries struggling as consumer preferences shift to cheaper,
faster alternatives.

According to the report, Dallas-based Zio's Restaurant Co., which
filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in San
Antonio, operates 15 restaurants located primarily in the Southwest
and employs 875 employees.

Zio's is shuttering five of its restaurants and is "evaluating" the
remaining locations for closure as well, the report said, citing
according to court papers.

Like other casual eateries, Zio's has suffered in recent years as
cash-strapped diners cut back on eating out, the report related.
Those financial woes have been exacerbated by Zio's presence in an
area that has been buffeted by the distress in the oil and natural
gas industry, the report further related, citing David W. Parham,
Esq. -- david.parham@akerman.com -- Zio's bankruptcy lawyer.

The restaurant chain also embarked on an expansion, growing to 21
outlets, as oil and gas prices plummeted, the report said.  The
bust contributed to a slowdown in the casual-dining industry in the
region, the report added.

Zio's eateries are managed by FMP SA Management Group, an affiliate
of Food Management Partners Inc., based in Hollywood Park, Texas,
the report noted.  FMP also manages Buffets Restaurants, a
Texas-based chain that filed for bankruptcy in March less than a
year after the company merged with Alamo Ovation LLC, another
affiliate of Food Management Partners, the report further noted.


ZIO'S RESTAURANT: Seeks Extension of Deadline to File Schedules
---------------------------------------------------------------
Zio's Restaurant Company, LLC, et al., have asked the Bankruptcy
Court to extend their deadline to file their (a) statement of
financial affairs, (b) schedule of assets and liabilities, (c)
schedule of current income and expenditures, and (d) schedule of
executory contracts and unexpired leases, by an additional 15 days
through Oct. 6, 2016.

The Debtors said they require extra time to prepare and file their
Schedules and Statements given the numerous critical operational
matters that their accounting and legal personnel must address in
the early days of these Chapter 11 Cases, and the volume of
information that must be reviewed, prepared, and included in their
Schedules and Statements.

"While the Debtors have commenced the task of gathering the
necessary information that will enable them to finalize their
Schedules and Statements, the nature and scope of the Debtors'
operations require them to maintain voluminous records and
intricate accounting systems," said John E. Mitchell, Esq., at
Akerman LLP, one of the Debtors' counsel.  "The Debtors have also
limited staff available to perform the required internal review of
such financial records and affairs."

According to the Debtors, they have already begun compiling the
information required to complete their Schedules and Statements.
Nevertheless, as a consequence of the complexity of their business
operations, coupled with the limited time and resources available,
they have not yet finished gathering those information.

"[F]ocusing the attention of key accounting and legal personnel on
vital operational and restructuring matters during the critical
first weeks after filing the Chapter 11 Cases, rather than on
preparing their Schedules and Statements, will facilitate the
Debtors' smooth transition into Chapter 11 and maximize the value
of the Debtors' estates for the benefit of creditors and
parties-in-interest," Mr. Mitchell asserted.

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
