incurred by Professional Persons in pursuit of confirming the Plan

initial distribution to the Unsecured Priority Creditors on the
Effective Date with the balance owing to Unsecured Priority
Creditor and Unsecured Creditors paid over 24 months after the
Effective Date of the Plan in quarterly distributions commencing
four months from the Effective Date of $50,000 per quarter and any
additional sums owed upon the expiration of 24 months will be paid
in a lump sum until the Allowed Unsecured Priority Creditors and
Allowed Unsecured Creditors are paid 100% of their claims without
interest.

The primary source of Plan funding will be the Cash Contribution by
the Members, collection of Accounts Receivables, and Cash. The
Debtor projects approximately $12,652 in net ordinary income from
operations of the Hotel starting from Jan 2017 through Dec 2017.

AGT FOOD: DBRS Confirms 'B(high)' Issuer Rating
-----------------------------------------------
DBRS Limited confirmed the Issuer Rating of AGT Food & Ingredients
Inc. (AGT or the Company) at B (high) and assigned a provisional
rating of BB (low) to the Company’s proposed issuance of $175
million of Senior Unsecured Notes, with a recovery rating of RR3.
Proceeds from the proposed issuance of new Senior Unsecured Notes
are expected to be used to fully redeem all of the Company’s
outstanding Senior Secured High-Yield Notes (on or around February
14, 2017, the earliest time at which they can be redeemed at par)
as well as to repay amounts drawn on the Company’s credit
facilities (held at Alliance Pulse Processors Inc. (APP) with a
first-lien on APP assets). The RR3 Recovery Rating on the Senior
Unsecured Notes assumes the full repayment of the outstanding
Senior Secured High-Yield Notes, at which time, upon the closing of
the redemption in early 2017 of the Senior Secured High-Yield
Notes, the associated rating will be discontinued-repaid.

AGT’s Issuer Rating continues to be supported by its market
position in global pulses, diversification (geography, supplier and
customers) and favourable industry trends. The rating also reflects
volatility in input costs, sensitivity to weather and growing
conditions, the low-margin and capital-intensive nature of AGT’s
core business, competition and risks associated with the
Company’s growth.

The confirmation of the Issuer Rating is based on the Company’s
solid operating performance to September 30, 2016, which continued
to display meaningful growth in revenues and improved margins,
benefitting from the vertical integration capabilities provided by
recent acquisitions in the Company’s core business as well as
continued progress in food ingredients. EBITDA continued to grow at
a steady pace, rising to $109 million for the last 12 months (LTM)
ended September 30, 2016, versus $94 million in 2015 and $80
million in 2014. AGT’s financial profile remained relatively
stable in the LTM ended September 30, 2016, as improved operating
income and cash flow largely offset further increases in
balance-sheet debt (long-term debt of $366.2 million at the end of
September 30, 2016 versus $344.3 million at the end of 2015 and
$276.2 million at September 30, 2015), helping to maintain credit
metrics within a range considered acceptable for the current B
(high) Issuer Rating (i.e., total debt-to-EBITDA of 4.68 times (x),
long-term debt-to-EBITDA of 3.35x and EBITDA coverage of 3.35x,
respectively, for the LTM ended September 30, 2016).

Going forward, DBRS believes that AGT’s earnings profile should
remain well placed for the current B (high) Issuer Rating on a
through-the-cycle basis and could improve over the near to medium
term if AGT continues to leverage its vertical integration in the
core business and gains further traction growing its food
ingredients, including a greater proportion of higher-margin human
food (from pet food). AGT’s financial profile should remain at
least stable in the near to medium term, as free cash generating
capacity is expected to increase and turn positive, driven by
rising operating income and cash flow combined with declining
expansionary capex and a stable dividend. DBRS believes that AGT
will continue to invest in growth and therefore expects that future
improvement in credit metrics will be driven primarily by growth in
operating income and cash flow rather than debt repayment. Should
AGT be successful at improving its business mix by continuing to
grow the higher-margin and more stable business segment, as well as
its free cash flow and credit metrics (i.e., debt-to-EBITDA below
4.0x and long-term debt-to-EBITDA below 3.0x), a positive rating
action could result.

The provisional Recovery Rating on the proposed Senior Unsecured
Notes is RR3, representing expected recovery in the 60% to 80%
range. DBRS believes that recovery on the proposed Senior Unsecured
Notes will continue to be based primarily on the assets in Turkey
of the Arbel Group (inventory, receivables and property). The
Recovery Rating on the proposed Senior Unsecured Notes also
benefits contractually from subordination agreements, which (1)
provide contractually senior-ranking guarantees from the Arbel
Group, AGT Foods South Africa Ltd. and Alliance Grain Traders
(Switzerland) SA; and (2) contractually subordinates the claims of
a substantial portion of the intercompany payables owed by the
Arbel Group to AGT (and Alliance Grain Traders (Switzerland) SA and
from APP to AGT) versus the claims of unsecured noteholders.

Notes: All figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

rating process. DBRS had access to the accounts and other relevant
internal documents of the rated entity or its related entities.

                          *    *    *

In December 2016, Moody's Investors Service placed Alta Mesa
Holdings' 'Caa2' Corporate Family Rating (CFR) and 'Caa2-PD'
Probability of Default Rating (PDR) under review for
upgrade and assigned a 'Caa1' rating to the proposed offering of
$450 million of senior unsecured notes.

In December 2016, S&P Global Ratings said that it raised its
corporate credit rating on Alta Mesa Holdings to 'B-' from 'CCC+'.
"The upgrade follows Alta Mesa's announcement that it used the
proceeds from a recent preferred equity issuance to pay down its
second-lien debt and repay part of the revolving credit facility,"
said S&P Global Ratings' credit analyst Daniel Krauss.


ARMADA WATER: Has Until Jan. 18 to File Chapter 11 Plan
-------------------------------------------------------
Judge David R. Jones of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Texas extended Armada Water Assets, Inc., et al.'s
exclusive periods for filing and soliciting acceptances of a plan
to January 18, 2017 and March 20, 2017, respectively.

The Debtors previously sought the extension of their exclusive
periods, relating that they had made progress toward the
formulation of a plan of reorganization, specifically, the Debtors
have investigated the previously unknown Joint Development
Agreement with RecyClean Consulting Services, Inc. and, together
with the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, have met and
negotiated with RecyClean regarding the subject technology.  The
Debtors further related that they have reached an agreement with
RecyClean in principle regarding a global settlement of their
mutual claims, which would be incorporated into a plan of
reorganization that is likely to have the support of the Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditors.

The Debtors contended that although they have reached agreements in
principle with RecyClean and the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors regarding a term sheet for a plan of reorganization, the
specific terms of the plan and associated documentation remain to
be drafted.  The Debtors further contended that pursuant to the
terms of its post-petition financing, drafting and subsequent
prosecution of any plan is subject to the approval of a proposed
Phase 2 Budget, which remained pending at the time.  The Debtors
added that they required additional time to draft and file a plan
premised upon these developments.

BERNARD L. MADOFF: Court Dismisses Cross-Claims in Suit vs. HSBC
----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Stuart M. Bernstein of the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York granted a motion to dismiss
cross-claims in the adversary proceeding captioned IRVING H.
PICARD, Trustee for the Liquidation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment
Securities LLC, Plaintiff, v. HSBC BANK PLC, et al., Defendants,
Adv. Pro. Nos. 08-01789 (SMB), 09-01364 (SMB) (Bankr. S.D.N.Y.).

Irving H. Picard, as trustee of the liquidation of Bernard L.
Madoff Investment Securities LLC under the Securities Investor
Protection Act of 1970 (SIPA), brought the adversary proceeding to
avoid and recover initial transfers made to numerous feeder funds,
including Alpha Prime Fund Limited and Senator Fund SPC (together
with Alpha, the "Funds"), and subsequent transfers made to, inter
alia, the HSBC Securities Services (Bermuda) Limited (HSSB), HSBC
Institutional Trust Services (Bermuda) Limited (HITSB), HSBC Bank
Bermuda Limited (HBB), HSBC Securities Services (Luxembourg) S.A.
(HSSL), and HSBC Bank plc (HSBC Bank, and together with HSSB,
HITSB, HBB, and HSSL, the "HSBC Defendants").  

The Funds asserted numerous cross-claims against the HSBC
Defendants sounding in fraud, negligence and gross negligence,
breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, violations of
Luxembourg law and aiding and abetting for, among other things,
failing to properly monitor and manage the Funds' investments in
BLMIS, and in particular, appointing BLMIS as a sub-custodian of
their investments with BLMIS.

The HSBC Defendants moved to dismiss the Funds' cross-claims.

The Funds asserted that the Court may exercise "related to"
jurisdiction over the cross-claims pursuant to 11 U.S.C. section
1334(b) or, alternatively, supplemental jurisdiction pursuant to 28
U.S.C. section 1367(a).

The Funds argued that the cross-claims are "related to" to the
BLMIS SIPA liquidation because the allegations supporting the
cross-claims are the same as those supporting the Funds' defenses,
and the adjudication of the cross-claims "will effectively decide
the Funds' defenses against the Trustee ..."

Judge Bernstein disagreed.  "The outcome of the cross-claims will
not have any conceivable effect on the BLMIS estate, and will not
alter the BLMIS estate's "rights, liabilities, options, or freedom
of action (either positively or negatively)."  The Trustee is suing
the Funds, or is at least still suing Alpha, to recover initial
fraudulent transfers and equitably subordinate its SIPA customer
claims.  He also sued the HSBC Defendants to recover subsequent
transfers but those claims have been dismissed.  Alpha and Senator,
on the other hand, are suing the HSBC Defendants for breach of
contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, gross negligence,
violations of Luxembourg law, aiding and abetting and fraud based
on the loss of their investments and the fees they paid.  Their
claims exist independent of the Trustee's claims and win or lose,
the outcome of the Cross-Claim litigation will not affect the SIPA
estate," explained the judge.

Alternatively, the Funds argued that the Court may exercise
supplemental jurisdiction over the cross-claims.  The Funds argued
that the facts underlying the cross-claims substantially overlap
with the Funds' defenses to the Trustee's two-year fraudulent
transfer and equitable subordination claims.

Judge Bernstein concluded that the Court lacked supplemental
jurisdiction over the cross-claims at the time they were asserted
because the Trustee's claims and the cross-claims do not arise out
of the same nucleus of facts.  The judge pointed out that the
claims are raised by different parties, and require different
proof.

The HSBC motion to dismiss was thus granted based upon the lack of
subject matter jurisdiction and the Court's determination not to
exercise supplemental jurisdiction.

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

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

On April 14, 2009, Grant Thornton UK LLP as receiver placed Madoff
Securities International Limited in London under bankruptcy
protection pursuant to Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code
(Bankr. S.D. Fla. 09-16751).  The Chapter 15 case was later
transferred to Manhattan.  In June 2009, Judge Lifland approved
the consolidation of the Madoff SIPA proceedings and the bankruptcy
case.

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

From recoveries in lawsuits coupled with money advanced by SIPC,
Mr. Picard has commenced distributions to victims.  As of Dec. 14,
2016, the SIPA Trustee has recovered more than $11.486 billion and,
following the eight interim distribution in January 2017, will
raise total distributions to approximately $9.72 billion, which
includes more than $839.6 million in advances committed by SIPC.


BGM PASADENA: Rankin Villa Buying Pasadena Property for $12.6M
--------------------------------------------------------------
BGM Pasadena, LLC, asks the the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Central District of California to authorize the sale of real
property commonly known as 210, 244 & 248 S. Orange Grove, Blvd,
Pasadena, California, to Rankin Villa, LLC for $12,600,000.

A hearing on the Motion is set for Jan. 11, 2017 at 11:00 a.m.

On Dec. 22, 2011, the Court entered an Order Approving that certain
"Settlement Agreement" between the Debtor and City Ventures and/or
its wholly owned entity Pasadena Apts-7, LLC, ("PA-7").  On March
27, 2012, the Court entered an Order Approving Chapter 11 Plan of
Reorganization ("2012 Plan") (Case No. 09-39135).  On Feb. 26,
2013, the Court entered the  Final Decree.  Case No. 09-39135 was
closed on March 18, 2013.

During the post-confirmation (2012 Plan) development of certain
lots adjacent to the Property by City Ventures, numerous disputes
arose between the Debtor and City Ventures over the development.
Following several mediation agreements and arbitration awards
arising out of the Site Development Agreement and/or the Settlement
Agreement, on Feb. 9, 2015, City Ventures recorded a Notice of
Default and Election to Sell Under Deeds of Trust based upon an
allegedly non-curable default resulting from an immaterial change
in the Debtor's ownership structure.  The Debtor unsuccessfully
attempted to resolve the alleged defaults through additional
arbitration and mediation and on Nov. 20, 2015, the Debtor filed a
voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code to allow completion of its performance under the 2012 Plan and
Settlement Agreement.

The Debtor filed the case to protect its assets while completing
the terms and payments of the 2012 Plan.  In that spirit, on Jan.
22, 2016, the Debtor filed a plan that treated all creditors as
unimpaired and paid creditors in-full prior to maturity of the
loans.  The plan was modified on Feb. 10, 2016, and set for hearing
on March 9, 2016.  On March 15, 2016, PA-7 filed 2 motions for
relief from the automatic stay.  At the March 9, 2016, hearing, the
Court, disagreeing with the Debtor's contention that no disclosure
statement was required because no voting would be solicited on the
unimpaired plan, found the Plan failed to satisfy 11 U.S.C.
Section, and granted PA-7 relief from the automatic stay to
foreclose on the Property.  On June 6, 2016, unable to secure a
stay pending appeal and to avoid the foreclosure sales scheduled
for June 7, 2016, a capital contribution in the amount of PA-7's
demand ($5,368,583), was made to the Debtor and transferred to
PA-7.

On Sept. 23, 2016, the Court entered an Order Approving Second
Amended Disclosure Statement Dated Sept. 19, 2016 ("Disclosure
Statement").  The Disclosure Statement describes the Debtor's Fifth
Amended Plan of Reorganization filed Sept. 23, 2016.  The
confirmation hearing on the Plan was held on Dec. 1, 2016, at 10:30
a.m.  Like the prior plan, in keeping with the Debtor's objectives
in the case, the Disclosure Statement and Plan provided to pay all
creditors in-full prior to maturity.  The source of payments to
creditors was described as from "rental income, capital
contributions, refinance of the Property and/or from co-obligor
payment(s)."

As detailed supra in the Statement of Facts, since commencement of
the Case the Debtor has endeavored to pay all creditors in-full
prior to maturity.  The Debtor still desires to effectuate this
intention, but has come to realize that the Property, which has an
appraised value of $12,600,000 has become a distraction to certain
creditors who are more preoccupied with how to own the Property
than how to get paid.  In light of that fact and the current
procedural posture of the case, including the expiration of
exclusivity and a pending motion for relief form stay, the Debtor
proposes to effectuate its need to obtain financing through a sale
of the Property to Rankin Villa.

Rankin Villa was formed in response to lender requirements that the
borrower be a bankruptcy remote, single purpose entity. The
Purchaser has common ownership with the Debtor, and should be
considered an insider related entity.  

The purchase price for the proposed Sale is $12,600,000 and will
close upon entry of an order by the Court.  According to the
Debtor's estimates, the total amount of allowed secured and
unsecured claims in the case (excluding insider claims) is
approximately $7,600,000; therefore, the proposed Sale combined
with other funding sources, will be sufficient to pay all creditors
in full.

Rankin Villa will purchase the Property with a $6,950,000 loan from
Owens Financial Group secured by a first deed of trust on the
Property, a cash contribution and a debt/equity swap for the
balance.  Amounts owed to Smith Family Trust and guaranteed by the
Debtor will be paid by the primary obligor before the Sale closes.
Insider unsecured claims, which would otherwise need to be paid
under a sale to a non-insider third party, will be converted to
equity.  These funding sources, along with the projected cash held
by the Debtor on the anticipated closing date, represent sufficient
funds to pay all allowed claims.

The Debtor proposes to pay all creditors' undisputed claim amounts
from escrow or Debtor's deposit accounts.

A copy of the estimated claim amounts and proposed payments, and
the Purchase Agreement attached to the Motion is available for free
at:

          http://bankrupt.com/misc/BGM_Pasadena_577_Sales.pdf

The Debtor has fully disclosed that the purchaser is deemed an
insider, and the Debtor proposes to obtain the necessary exit
financing through a sale of the Property to Rankin Villa, a
procedural tool to effectuate payment to creditors in-full.
Indeed, it is clear that the Property has become a distraction to
certain creditors who are intent on owning the Property and are
resisting the Debtor’s efforts to effectuate payoff.  The
proposed Sale will finally allow the 2012 Plan to be completed, and
will provide all creditors payment in-full prior to the maturity
date of the loans.  Accordingly, the Debtor asks the Court to
approve the sale of Property to Rankin Villa free and clear of
liens, claims, encumbrances and other interests.

The Debtor asks that the stay imposed by Rule 6004(h) of the
Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure be waived.  As discussed
supra, it is in the best interests of the estate that the sale be
consummated as quickly as possible without any stay of the order.
A stay will only further delay payment to creditors and resolution
of the case.

Denver-based Bill Barrett Corporation is an independent energy
company that develops, acquires and explores for oil and natural
gas resources.  All of the Company's assets and operations are
located in the Rocky Mountain region of the United States.

Bill Barrett reported a net loss of $488 million in 2015 following
net income of $15.08 million in 2014.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Bill Barrett had $1.33 billion in total
assets, $826.4 million in total liabilities and $509.2 million in
total stockholders' equity.

                            *    *    *

In June 2016, Moody's Investors Service affirmed Bill Barrett
Corporation's 'Caa2' Corporate Family Rating and revised the
Probability of Default Rating to 'Caa2-PD/LD' from 'Caa2-PD.'
"Bill Barrett's debt for equity exchange achieved some reduction in
its overall debt burden, but the company's cash flow and leverage
metrics continue to remain challenged as its hedges roll off in
2017," commented Amol Joshi, Moody's vice president.

In July 2016, S&P Global Ratings raised the corporate credit rating
on Bill Barrett to 'B-' from 'SD'.  The rating outlook is negative.
"The upgrade reflects our reassessment of the company's corporate
credit rating following the debt-for-equity exchange of its 7.625%
senior unsecured notes due 2019, and also reflects our expectation
that there will be no further distressed exchanges over the next 12
months," said S&P
Global Ratings credit analyst Kevin Kwok.


BIOSCRIP INC: Outlines Plan to Increase Liquidity
-------------------------------------------------
BioScrip, Inc., has introduced a proposed amendment to its credit
agreement intended to amend the original credit agreement, dated
July 31, 2013, among BioScrip, the guarantors, SunTrust Bank as
administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders.

The proposed amendment would reduce the restrictive debt leverage
covenant in the Credit Agreement for the next seven quarters, which
is anticipated to allow the Company to be prospectively compliant
for the next year and half.  The proposed Amendment restructures
the existing revolving credit facility, providing BioScrip with
immediate access to $15 million in incremental liquidity.  Under
the proposed terms of the Amendment, the loan maturity of July 31,
2018, would remain unchanged.

The Company said preliminary performance in the fourth quarter of
2016 is trending better than expected, with both core revenue and
adjusted EBITDA accelerating as the quarter progresses.
Accordingly, fourth quarter 2016 revenue and adjusted EBITDA are
expected to be at the high end of the previously announced ranges
of $232 million to $239 million, and $6 million to $8 million,
respectively.  Additionally, completion of all necessary actions to
realize $17 million of Home Solutions synergies are expected to be
in place by the end of 2016.  BioScrip also remains on pace to
realize an additional $8 million to $10 million in further cost
structure improvements in 2017.

"As stated on our third quarter earnings conference call, BioScrip
is in the beginning stages of implementing an 18 to 24 month
turnaround strategy and is focused on optimizing operational
efficiencies to drive profitable growth and deliver on our
financial commitments," said Dan Greenleaf, president and chief
executive officer of BioScrip.  "While we are only partially
through the fourth quarter of 2016, I am extremely pleased with the
operating performance quarter to date and expect to report fourth
quarter 2016 revenue and adjusted EBITDA results at the high end of
our previously announced guidance ranges.  Better than expected
revenue growth in our core business combined with cost containment
initiatives and synergies are the primary drivers behind our
updated outlook for 2016.  Entering into this amendment to our
credit agreement provides us with the necessary near-term liquidity
and working capital to continue to execute this turnaround strategy
over the next several quarters."

In light of the recent Congressional approval of the 21st Century
Cures Act, the Company is also issuing a statement on the potential
impact to BioScrip's business.  The Company expects the legislation
to potentially result in a significant reduction in Medicare
patient access to inotropic and subcutaneous Ig therapies effective
Jan. 1, 2017.  The Company estimates that the Cures Act as written
will result in reimbursement reductions impacting therapies
representing approximately 3% to 4% of total current revenue.

"We are actively analyzing the implications of the Cures Act and
looking to undertake potential operational and strategic
initiatives to mitigate the impact on our business," said Mr.
Greenleaf.  "While we are disappointed with the passage of the Act
and the potential implications for our Medicare patients, we are
confident in our business model and in the ability of our team to
reach a level of financial productivity that is more reflective of
the true value of the company.  As always, our priority is to
provide high quality care to our patients while creating long-term
value for our shareholders."

convertible preferred stock, $67.24 million in series C convertible
preferred stock and a total stockholders' deficit of $24.28
million.

Bioscrip reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of
$309.51 million in 2015, a net loss attributable to common
stockholders of $147.7 million in 2014, and a net loss attributable
to common stockholders of $69.65 million in 2013.

                          *    *    *

In November 2016, S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit
rating on home infusion services provider BioScrip Inc. to 'CCC'
from 'CCC+' and revised the outlook to developing from stable.
"The downgrade reflects our belief that the company could face a
liquidity event within 12 months if it is unable to rapidly improve
profitability; moreover, given the company's lowered guidance, its
meaningful EBITDA shortfall in the third quarter, and its pattern
of falling short of its expectations, our confidence in the
company's ability to execute on its cost-cutting and other
strategic initiatives is limited," said credit analyst Elan Nat.

In March 2016, Moody's Investors Service downgraded BioScrip's
Corporate Family Rating to 'Caa2' from 'Caa1' and Probability of
Default Rating to 'Caa2-PD' from 'Caa1-PD'.

BREITBURN ENERGY: Has Until January 10 to File Chapter 11 Plan
--------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Stuart M. Bernstein of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York extended the exclusive periods during
which Breitburn Energy Partners LP and its debtor affiliates may
file a chapter 11 plan, and solicit acceptances of their chapter 11
plan, to and including January 10, 2017 and March 10, 2017,
respectively.

The Troubled Company Reporter had previously reported that the
Debtors asked the Court to extend their exclusive filing period to
March 11, 2017 and their exclusive solicitation period to May 10,
2017, however, pleadings opposing such extension of the exclusive
period were filed by the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
and Wexford Capital LP.

According to the Debtors, the Objections were asking the Court to
take the "extraordinary and unprecedented step in a complex
restructuring case" -- with more than $3 billion in funded debt --
of denying the Debtors' first request to extend exclusivity to
essentially force the Creditors' Committee's plan on the Debtors
and their estates.  The Objections, the Debtors stated, primarily
assert that an extension should be denied on the basis that the
Debtors are (a) not engaging in good faith plan negotiations with
the Creditors' Committee, and (b) failing to fulfill their
fiduciary duties by not agreeing to the objectors' demand that the
Debtors market their Midland Basin Acreage, thereby pre-ordaining
the chapter 11 plan structure and the business operations of the
reorganized Debtors.  The Objectors also requested that, if the
Court does not deny the extension of their Exclusive Periods, the
Debtors should be granted only a "short" extension conditioned on
the Debtors "marketing" the Midland Basin Acreage.

According to the Debtors, with multiple views and ongoing
discussions surrounding a plan being formulated and coordinated by
the Debtors, these are exactly the circumstances where the Debtors
must maintain exclusivity to drive value and carve a path toward
emergence for the benefit of all of their economic stakeholders.
Indeed, where these complex cases remain in their initial stages
and where the Court has just directed the appointment of a
statutory committee for equity security holders that has yet to be
organized, such draconian relief would be in direct contravention
of the intent and purpose of chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.

                    About Breitburn Energy

Breitburn Energy Partners LP and 21 of its affiliates filed
voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Lead Case No. 16-11390) on May 15, 2016,

conduct their operations through Breitburn Parent's wholly-owned
subsidiary, Breitburn Operating LP, and BOLP's general partner,

Trustee appointed seven creditors of Breitburn Energy Partners LP
and its affiliated debtors to serve on the official committee of

CALERES INC: Moody's Affirms Ba3 Corporate Family Rating
--------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service lowered Caleres, Inc.'s Speculative-Grade
Liquidity Rating to SGL-2 from SGL-1. Concurrently, Moody's
affirmed the company's Ba3 Corporate Family Rating ("CFR"), Ba3-PD
Probability of Default Rating and B1 senior unsecured debentures
rating. The rating outlook remains stable.

The company's Speculative-Grade Liquidity Rating was lowered to
SGL-2 to reflect anticipated declines in revolver availability and
cash balances in connection with the $255 million acquisition of
Allen Edmonds, a designer and manufacturer of premium men's leather
footwear and accessories. Notwithstanding the deterioration in the
company's near-term liquidity, Moody's believes that the
acquisition overall is a credit positive. According to Moody's
VP-Sr. Analyst Raya Sokolyanska, "Allen Edmonds diversifies
Caleres' mainly women's footwear brand portfolio with a
well-recognized and solidly performing men's brand."  Moody's views
integration risk as moderate based on Caleres' good track record of
adding other brands like Sam Edelman to its platform.

Moody's took the following rating actions on Caleres, Inc.

   -- Corporate Family Rating, affirmed Ba3

   -- Probability of Default Rating, affirmed Ba3-PD

   -- $200 million Senior Unsecured Debenture, affirmed B1 (LGD 5)

   -- Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, downgraded to SGL-2 from
      SGL-1

Stable outlook

RATINGS RATIONALE

Caleres' Ba3 CFR reflects the company's recognized brands, customer
and geographic diversification, and good liquidity. The company's
relatively good credit protection metrics, with pro-forma
debt/EBITDA of 3.3 times and EBITA/Interest expense of 3.2 times
position the CFR solidly within the Ba3 category. However, the
rating is constrained by Caleres' low margins relative to specialty
retail peers, narrow product focus, and sensitivity to shifts in
fashion and to the consumer discretionary spending characteristics
of an apparel retailer.

Caleres' SGL-2 liquidity rating reflects the company's good
liquidity position supported by Moody's projection for $90-$100
million of free cash flow in 2017 and ample revolver availability.
As of Q3 2016, Caleres had $173 million balance sheet cash, of
which about $100 million is overseas and $20 million is needed for
daily operations. If Caleres does not use overseas cash and
finances the acquisition with about $55 million of domestic cash
and $200 million ABL borrowings, it should have an estimated
$350-$400 million net availability at all times in 2017 on the $600
million asset-based revolver. Moody's expects that the company will
use its positive free cash flow to materially reduce revolver
borrowings over the next 12-18 months. Moody's does not expect
unused availability on the revolver to fall below the 10% of the
borrowing base level that would trigger the springing 1.0x fixed
charge coverage ratio, and also believes there is ample headroom
within the covenant. Caleres also has access to substantial
alternate liquidity sources if needed, due to its ability to sell
individual wholesale brands.

The stable rating outlook reflects Moody's expectations for modest
revenue growth, sustained or improved profit margins, and a good
liquidity profile.

The ratings could be upgraded if the company sustains sales growth
and expands EBITA margins towards 9%, while achieving a very good
liquidity profile. An upgrade would also require a successful
integration of Allen Edmonds, maintenance of balanced financial
policies, including a commitment to maintain debt/EBITDA at or
below 3.0 times and EBITA/interest expense at or above 3.0 times.

The ratings could be lowered if positive trends in revenues and
EBITDA reverse, financial policy becomes more aggressive or
liquidity deteriorates. Quantitatively, ratings could be lowered if
leverage remains above 4.0 times for an extended period.

Headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, Caleres, Inc. (formerly known
as Brown Shoe) is a retailer and a wholesaler of footwear. Its
Famous Footwear chain, which generates approximately half of total
pro-forma revenues, sells moderately priced branded footwear
targeting families through about 1,000 stores in the U.S. and
Canada. Through its Brand Portfolio segment, Caleres designs and
markets owned and licensed footwear brands including Sam Edelman,
Via Spiga, Franco Sarto, Vince, Fergie, Naturalizer, Dr. Scholl's,
LifeStride, DVF, Ryka, and Carlos. The brand portfolio also
includes about 160 specialty retail stores mostly under the
Naturalizer brand in the US, Canada, and China. Revenues for the 12
months ended October 29, 2016 were approximately $2.6 billion.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Retail
Industry" published in October 2015.

within two business after the Company receives it.

Carver Bancorp, Inc., -- http://www.carverbank.com/--
(Nasdaq:CARV) Carver Bancorp, Inc. is the holding company for
Carver Federal Savings Bank (Carver Federal or the Bank), a
federally chartered savings bank.  The Company conducts business as
a unitary savings and loan holding company, and the business of the
Company consists of the operation of its wholly owned subsidiary,
Carver Federal. Carver Federal serves African-American communities
whose residents, businesses and institutions had limited access to
mainstream financial services.  It provides deposit products, such
as demand, savings and time deposits for consumers, businesses, and
governmental and quasi-governmental agencies in its market area
within New York City.

Carver Bancorp reported a net loss attributable to the Company of
$170,000 for the year ended March 31, 2016, following a net loss
attributable to the Company of $272,000 for the year ended
March 31, 2015.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Carver Bancorp had $701.7 million in total
assets, $647.3 million in total liabilities and $54.41 million in
total equity.

KPMG LLP, in New York, issued a "going concern" qualification on
the consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31,
2016, citing that the Company has deferred interest payments on its
junior subordinated debentures through March 31, 2016.  Under the
terms of the debentures, the Company may defer payments for up to
twenty consecutive quarters without creating an event of default.
Payment for the twentieth quarterly interest deferral period is due
in September 2016 and is subject to approval by the Company's
banking regulator.  The auditors said the ability of the Company to
meet its debt service obligations raises substantial doubt about
its ability to continue as a going concern.


CATASYS INC: Issues Letter to Shareholders
------------------------------------------
Catasys, Inc., filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a
a copy of its letter to shareholders.  A full-text copy of the
Letter is as follows:

Dear Catasys Shareholder,

We are pleased to update you, our valued shareholder, on the
exciting events occurring throughout our business and will be
taking steps to provide additional visibility into our progress
going forward.  The rapid pace at which we are expanding our
engagements with the major U.S. health plans has dramatically
increased the total number of equivalent lives we are reporting at
the end of 2016.  This growth is expected to have a significant
impact on our financial performance for 2017.

The healthcare industry, in particular, health insurance companies
and plans, typically take many years to allow a new entrant such as
us to gain significant traction.  It has taken the Company several
years to prove out our business model, as it is currently accepted
by many national health plan providers.  During this time, we have
found it virtually impossible to have enough visibility in our
business to publicly provide accurate financial guidance and
direction.  Through this letter, we hope that you will sense
something must be changing given our newly communicative posture.

Further, we will briefly discuss our vision; the healthcare
industry issues that we are addressing; the proprietary nature of
our products; the scalable nature of our business, and our near
term expectations.

Company Vision and Solution

The Company's vision is to improve the behavioral health industry
by providing an innovative proactive treatment solution with cost
saving opportunities for health plan customers, and ultimately be
able to scale its availability on a national and perhaps one day,
international basis.

Today, we are focused on substance use disorder (SUD), depression
and anxiety which comprises approximately 75% of behavioral health
disorders.  The U.S. currently has a passive system whereby
treatment avoidant patients (cost, denial, stigma, access) need to
seek out treatment, gain access to treatment, afford said
treatment, and then receive the appropriate care that addresses
both the physiological and psych-social aspects ("integrative
care") of these complex diseases.

Unfortunately, the more severe patients we serve have these
diseases as co-morbid conditions of each other, and have other
co-morbidities, such as cardiovascular, diabetes, renal, liver
disease etc.  The average amount of costs associated with these
patients directly related to the behavioral diseases alone is
$30,000.  These costs are predominantly from emergency room visits
and in-patient hospital stays.

Catasys provides an integrated outpatient solution with proprietary
analytics and predictive modeling, proprietary enrollment,
engagement and modification of behavior techniques. Our solution
effectively turns the passive system, treatment avoidant, minimal
access to care, unidentified patient population to a proactive,
replicable, scalable, national solution where we focus on the
complete care of the patients.

The results from our solution have shown that patients are getting
better, and the health insurance companies are consistently saving
50% of the medical costs for each patient enrolled.  Hence, there
is a health plan incentive to pay for all the associated treatment
costs.  Through OnTrak, behavioral health patients now have full
treatment program coverage, increased access to treatment and
effective care.

First Quarter and Full Year 2017

Catasys has emerged as a leading healthcare analytics company
providing proprietary value-added care for health plan members.  We
are like "Amazon and Uber" to the standard facilities-based
behavioral health industry model, as we are virtual and scalable
throughout the country, utilizing provider networks of independent
contracted medical doctors and psychologists, companioned with our
own care coaches, in an outpatient setting.

All of our existing health plan customers, including, Humana,
Aetna, Centene, and HAMP, have expanded OnTrak to their other
products and expanded geographically.  We are now operating in 18
states, with more to come.  This week we have seen for the first
time that one of our customers expanded from our SUD OnTrak program
to the OnTrak treatment of SUD, depression and anxiety.

While we have been growing revenues significantly year-over-year
and sequentially, the numbers are quite small relative to what we
expect in the coming year and beyond.  We have worked through much
of the customer specific logistical issues in 2016 that limited our
revenues, and it appears that the "perfect storm" is beginning to
culminate in the first quarter of 2017.

"Perfect Storm"

We anticipate shortly that all of our existing customers will be
operating at or near full capacity for the lives under contract by
the end of the first quarter of 2017, with additional opportunities
to expand.  We expect this growth to come throughout their eligible
members, including Medicare, Medicaid, commercial, individual, and,
hopefully, TRICARE (military and veterans), as well as, expansion
throughout our depression and anxiety offerings.

It's important to note that when a health plan contracts OnTrak for
depression, anxiety and SUD, it represents an approximately 4.4X
increase of the eligible population from which we enroll.  We began
the year with at or under 20% enrollment rates of eligible lives.
We are constantly trying to improve our techniques and we are
beginning to see the results.  While we are only one quarter in, we
are currently seeing a 20-25% enrollment rate which exceeds our
expectations.

Another input to the "storm" is additional health insurance
contracts.  We expect to add more national and super-regional
health plans.  This will be a major impetus to revenue growth.
Excitingly, we expect many of the new contracts to include the
treatment of depression and anxiety.  These will be the first
instances of new customers contracting for all three disease
states. We are hopeful that in 2017 we will have contracts in place
with health plans that represent in excess of 75% of the
commercially covered lives in the USA.  We are hopeful that we will
have contracts with 7 of the 8 largest health plans in the country.
Importantly, all of our existing and future customers will continue
to benefit from the trend in place, and expected to accelerate with
the next administration, of more of the Medicare and Medicaid
populations moving to managed care.  These populations have an
approximately 2.5X the eligible patients from which we enroll than
a commercial population.

Unfortunately, another "tailwind" is the increasing rates of mental
illness in the U.S. In a survey released this week, one out of six
adults take psychiatric medications.  Alarmingly, 85% of them are
prescribed multiple refills.  This is indicative of rising
dependencies and associated medical costs.  The government
increasingly recognizes the U.S. mental health problem and has
instituted the Mental Health Parity Act, and this week, the 21st
Century Cures Act became law thereby improving U.S. mental health
efforts.

The Result: Large Projected Revenue Streams

We believe that in 2017 we will nearly triple our Equivalent Lives
(ELs) under contract from the current 7.5 million we have in place.
Each 10 million ELs is anticipated to equate to a cash receipts
run rate 12 months from launch of $63 million.  Hence, 20 million
ELs could translate to a cash receipts run rate of approximately
$126 million 12 months from launch.  Excitingly, this is only the
beginning and would expect significant revenue and cash flow growth
rates for years to come.

We are extremely excited for Catasys' future growth.  I certainly
hope that you can sense my excitement for the coming year(s).
Perhaps now you can understand why I personally invested in excess
of $22 million into Catasys, Inc.  Thank you for remaining
dedicated to our Company's vision which will hopefully transform
the behavioral health industry.

I wish you a happy and healthy Holiday season, and a tremendous New
Year for all Catasys shareholders.

Respectfully,

Terren Peizer

CHANNEL TECHNOLOGIES: Sale of MSI Assets for $1.8 Million Approved
------------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Peter H. Carroll of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central
District of California authorized Channel Technologies Group, LLC's
asset purchase agreement with MSI Transducers Corp. in connection
with the private sale of assets used in connection with or arising
out of the Debtor's MSI business operation at its facility located
at 543 Great Road, Littleton, Massachusetts, for $1,750,000.

A hearing on the Motion was held on Dec. 14, 2016 at 10:00 a.m.

The sale is free and clear of all liens, claims, interests and
encumbrances.

A copy of the Purchase Agreement attached to the Motion is
available for free at:

       http://bankrupt.com/misc/Channel_Technologies_122_Sales.pdf


The Debtor is authorized in accordance with Sections 105(a), 363
and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code to (a) assume and assign to the
Buyer, conditioned and effective upon the Closing of the Sale, the
Assigned Contracts free and clear of all Interests of any kind or
nature whatsoever, and (b) execute and deliver to the Buyer such
documents or other instruments as may be necessary to assign and
transfer the Assigned Contracts to the Buyer.

The Cure Amounts set forth on the Cure Notices and any disputed
cure amounts once resolved by agreement or by the Court are the
true, correct, final and fixed amounts, and only amounts, that are
required to be paid upon assumption of the Assigned Contracts
pursuant to Sections 365(b)(1)(A) and (B) of the Bankruptcy Code
and the Buyer is directed to pay such amounts under Sections 105,
363(b) and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code upon assumption of such
Assigned Contracts.  There will be no rent accelerations,
assignment fees, increases or any other fees charged to the Buyer
or its designee as a result of the assumption, assignment and sale
of the Assigned Contracts.

Because the Court finds that the Buyer is a good faith purchaser
within the meaning of Section 363(m), in the event that the parties
to the Sale consummate the transactions contemplated thereby while
an appeal of the Order is pending, the Buyer will be entitled to
rely upon the protections of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code,
absent any stay pending appeal granted by a court of competent
jurisdiction prior to such consummation.

Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rules 6004, 6006 and 7062, the Order
will be effective and enforceable immediately upon entry and its
provisions will be self-executing, and the Motion or notice thereof
will be deemed to provide sufficient notice of the Debtors' request
for waiver of the otherwise applicable stay of the order.  The
Order will be effective immediately upon entry pursuant to Rule
7062 and 9014 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure.

CINCINNATI BELL: S&P Affirms 'BB-' Rating on Secured Debt
---------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has reviewed its recovery and
issue-level ratings for Cincinnati Bell Inc. that were labeled as
"under criteria observation" (UCO) after publishing its revised
recovery ratings criteria on Dec. 7, 2016.  With S&P's criteria
review complete, it is removing the UCO designation from these
ratings and affirming the 'BB-' issue-level rating on the company's
secured debt and the 'B' issue rating on the company's unsecured
debt.

S&P's recovery rating on Cincinnati Bell's secured debt remains a
'1' indicating S&P's expectations for very high (90%-100%) recovery
in the event of payment default.  S&P revised the recovery rating
on the company's unsecured debt to a '4' from a '3'.  The '4'
recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation for average (30%-50%,
lower half of the range) recovery in the event of payment default.

In addition, the 'B' corporate credit rating, and all other ratings
are not affected by the company's announcement that it will add on
$150 million to its existing $425 million senior unsecured notes
due 2024.  S&P expects the company will use net proceeds from the
add-on notes to repay a portion of its existing $540 million term
loan (approximately $524 million currently outstanding).  While the
reduction in secured debt should improve recovery prospects for
unsecured creditors, the addition of unsecured notes offsets the
improvement.  As a result, there is no change to the 'B'
issue-level rating or '4' recovery rating for the company's
unsecured debt.

These rating actions stem solely from the application of S&P's
revised recovery criteria and do not reflect any change in its
assessment of the corporate credit ratings for issuers of the
affected debt issues.

                        About Coates
    
Based in Wall Township, N.J., Coates International, Ltd.
(OTC BB: COTE) -- http://www.coatesengine.com/-- was
incorporated on Aug. 31, 1988, for the purpose of researching,
patenting and manufacturing technology associated with a spherical
rotary valve system for internal combustion engines.  This
technology was developed over a period of 15 years by Mr. George
J. Coates, who is the President and Chairman of the Board of the
Company.

The Coates Spherical Rotary Valve System (CSRV) represents a
revolutionary departure from the conventional poppet valve.  It
changes the means of delivering the air and fuel mixture to the
firing chamber of an internal combustion engine and of expelling
the exhaust produced when the mixture ignites.

Coates International reported a net loss of $10.2 million on
$94,200 of total revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015,
compared to a net loss of $12.8 million on $19,200 of
total revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2014.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Coates had $2.39 million in total assets,
$7.08 million in total liabilities and a total stockholders'
deficiency of $4.69 million.

Cowan, Gunteski & Co., P.A., in Tinton Falls, New Jersey, issued a
"going concern" qualification on the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, citing that the
Company continues to have negative cash flows from operations,
recurring losses from operations, and a stockholders' deficiency.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern.


COHERENT INC: S&P Raises Rating on $100MM Sr. Facility to 'BB+'
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has reviewed its recovery and
issue-level ratings for Coherent Inc. that were labeled as "under
criteria observation" (UCO) after publishing its revised recovery
ratings criteria on Dec. 7, 2016.  With S&P's criteria review
complete, it is removing the UCO designation from these ratings.
S&P is raising the rating to 'BB+' from 'BB' on the $100 million
senior secured revolving credit facility and the EUR670 million
senior secured term loan and revising the recovery rating to '2',
indicating S&P's expectation for substantial (70%-90%; lower end of
the range) recovery in the event of a payment default, from '3'.

The rating action stems solely from the application of S&P's
revised recovery criteria and does not reflect any change in its
assessment of the corporate credit ratings for issuers of the
affected debt issues.

COMMUNITY HOME: Court Grants Payment of $628K in Fees to JW
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Edward Ellington of the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of Mississippi granted the motion filed by
Jones Walker LLP, counsel to Kristina M. Johnson, Trustee of
Community Home Financial Services, Inc., for an order directing
immediate, interim payment of fees in the second and third fee
applications in an amount not less than the amounts not objected to
on a line-item basis.

On March 5, 2014, the Court entered an order granting Johnson's
application to employ JW as counsel nunc pro tunc to January 8,
2014.

On August 26, 2015, JW filed its second application for
compensation for the period of August 1, 2014, through June 30,
2015, and reimbursement of expenses, in which JW sought $938,397.50
as attorneys' fees and $67,943.88 in expenses (for a total of
$1,006,341.38).  On September 25, 2015, Edwards Family Partnership,
L.P. and Beher Holdings Trust filed an objection to the fee
application.

On October 27, 2015, the Court entered its Memorandum Opinion on
the first fee application filed by JW.  In response to the Court's
First Fee Opinion, JW filed its amended second application for
compensation for the period of August 1, 2014 through June 30,
2015, and reimbursement of expenses, in which JW sought $895,274.00
as attorneys' fees and $67,943.88 in expenses (for a total of
$963,217.88).  On January 8, 2016, Edwards and Beher filed a
supplemental objection to the amended second application.  Edwards
objected to time entries which total $523,681.00.  Of the requested
$895,274.00, Edwards did not object to time entries totaling
$371,593.00.

On July 8, 2016, JW filed its third application for compensation
for the period of July 1, 2015 through February 29, 2016, and
reimbursement of expenses, in which JW sought $557,647.00 as
attorneys' fees and $12,580.88 in expenses (for a total of
$570,227.88).  Edwards and Beher filed an objection on August 3,
2016.  Edwards objected to time entries which total $296,353.50.
Of the requested $557,647.00, Edwards did not object to time
entries totaling $261,293.50.

On November 22, 2016, JW filed the motion for an order directing
immediate, interim payment of fees in the second and third fee
applications in an amount not less than the amounts not objected to
on a line-item basis.  In its motion, JW stated that by its
calculations, Edwards has not objected to $628,037.00 in legal fees
requested by JW.  Therefore, JW requested that the Court direct
immediate payment (by December 31, 2016) on an interim basis the
$628,037.00 to which Edwards has not objected.  

On November 30, 2016, Edwards and Beher filed an objection to the
motion.  In its Objection, Edwards contended that: (1) the Court
has already ruled that the "Trustee cannot automatically use any of
the money she has on hand to pay any fees"; (2) that the only funds
the Trustee has on hand which are not subject to Edwards' claimed
security interest totals only $279,559.49; and (3) that the motion
should be denied and the case converted to a Chapter 7.

Judge Ellington noted that what JW is seeking in the motion is to
be paid on an interim basis for the fees to which Edwards did not
object.  The judge found that JW was not seeking to be paid for any
of the time to which Edwards' objects in either the Amended Second
Fee Application or the Third Fee Application, therefore, Edwards'
rights are protected.

Judge Ellington stated that while the Court is sympathetic toward
Edwards and its desire to be paid, the Court cannot, however, rule
in Edwards' favor simply because Edwards believes it is "right"
about having a lien on the majority of the debtor's assets.

Judge Ellington recognized that JW is a national law firm which
employs approximately 390 attorneys in offices in nine states and
the District of Columbia.  The judge was confident that JW would
have the financial ability to repay the funds to the bankruptcy
estate if at the end of the case or upon conversion, the Court
orders JW to disgorge funds.  For these reasons, Judge Ellington
found that JW should be paid on an interim basis the fees to which
Edwards did not object on a line-item basis.  The judge also found
that the Trustee is authorized to immediately pay to JW the sum
requested in its motion, $628,037.00, out of the $2,644,430.98 of
unencumbered funds.

opinion is available at:

CYU LITHOGRAPHICS: Wants to Use Cash Collateral on Final Basis
--------------------------------------------------------------
CYU Lithographics, Inc., d/b/a Choice Lithographics, asks the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California for
authorization to use cash collateral on a final basis.

The Court had issued a temporary Order directing the Debtor to pay
RM Machinery the amount of $8,500 per month, for a three-month
period, commencing Oct. 10, 2016.

The Debtor tells the Court that it has timely and properly made
each and every scheduled adequate protection payment of $8,500,
which were made on Oct. 10, Nov. 10, and Dec. 10, 2016.  The Debtor
further tells the Court that it has fully satisfied its monthly
financial obligation to RM Machinery as ordered.

The Debtor relates that it has generated additional post-petition
receivables due in 30 days or less in the amount of $132,324.  The
Debtor further relates that is accounts receivables total
approximately $222,441 and is substantially more than enough to
make up for any loss in value of RM Machinery's equipment due to
its usage in the Debtor's business, based upon RM Machinery's own
admissions.

The Debtor proposes to increase the monthly adequate protection to
RM Machinery from $8,500 to $10,000.

The Debtor's proposed Budget provides for total monthly operating
expenses in the amount of $44,278, and total monthly non-operating
expenses of $797.

DIAMONDBACK ENERGY: S&P Revises Outlook to Pos. & Affirms 'B+' CCR
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings revised its outlook to positive from stable on
Midland, Texas-based Diamondback Energy Inc. and affirmed the 'B+'
corporate credit rating.

At the same time, S&P assigned a 'BB-' issue-level rating to the
company's new $250 million senior unsecured notes maturing 2025.
The recovery rating is '2', reflecting S&P's expectation of
substantial (70% to 90%, lower end of the range) recovery in the
event of default.

Diamondback Energy announced the acquisition of approximately
76,000 net acres and related assets primarily in Pecos and Reeves
counties, Texas from Brigham Operating LLC and Brigham Resources
Midstream LLC.  S&P expects the $2.4 billion purchase price to be
largely equity funded and that the transaction will provide an
immediate boost to production and help improve the company's scale
and scope relative to other 'B-' category peers.

As a result, S&P has revised its outlook on Diamondback to positive
from stable.  The positive outlook reflects S&P's expectations the
company will continue to expand and develop its acreage without
significantly weakening its debt leverage measures.  Although S&P
expects the company's overall debt to increase with this
transaction, Diamondback has used a number of equity offerings
throughout the year to help fund acquisitions and capital spending,
allowing the company to maintain a minimal draw on its revolving
credit facility.

The positive rating outlook on Diamondback reflects the potential
to upgrade the company over the next 12 months if it can
successfully integrate the new Delaware Basin assets and continue
to grow and develop its acreage to levels consistent with
higher-rated peers while maintaining FFO to debt of at least 20% on
a sustained basis.

S&P could revise the outlook to stable if Diamondback's growth and
development does not proceed as expected.  Such a scenario could
take place if commodity prices remained well below S&P's
expectations and drilling remained uneconomical.

DR. MARCEL B. GEGATI: Wants Authorization to Use Cash Collateral
----------------------------------------------------------------
Dr. Marcel B. Gegati, P.A., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Florida for authorization to use cash
collateral.

The Debtor's cash collateral consists of the gross revenue
generated by the Debtor from daily operations.

The Debtor tells the Court it requires the use of cash collateral
for the continued operation of its business in the ordinary course,
including the provision of care to its patients, continuing
payroll, and remitting payment for expenses.  The Debtor further
tells the Court that without the use of cash collateral, the Debtor
will be forced to discontinue its business operation.

The Debtor's proposed 30-day Budget provides for total expenses in
the amount of $32,465.

The Debtor does not concede that any party has a perfected security
interest in the cash collateral.  The Debtor contends that for
purposes of this motion, it will presume that U.S. Bank National
Association has an interest in cash collateral and that said
interest is first priority.

The Debtor relates that the amount owed to U.S. Bank is estimated
at $306,630.40.  The Debtor further relates that the collateral
that U.S. Bank is asserting an interest in is located at the
Debtor’s location of business, and includes all assets and
personal property, including equipment required by Debtor to
continue operations and the accounts receivables.

The Debtor proposes to grant U.S. Bank a replacement lien to the
extent U.S. Bank's cash collateral is used by Debtor, and to the
extent and with the same priority in Debtor's postpetition
collateral, and proceeds thereof, that U.S. Bank holds in Debtor's
prepetition collateral.

ReadyCap Lending, LLC, holds a first-mortgage security interest on
the property.  ReadyCap Lending has filed a foreclosure action
against Debtor, in Broward County, Florida.

The Debtor seeks to remit to ReadyCap payment in the amount of
$2,423 for the pendency of the bankruptcy as adequate protection,
representative of Debtor's contractual mortgage payment and escrow
component.  The Debtor expects this payment amount to adjust
periodically for county taxes and insurance.

DRAGONWAVE INC: Obtains NASDAQ Listing Rule Compliance Extension
----------------------------------------------------------------
DragonWave Inc. a global supplier of packet microwave radio systems
for mobile and access networks, on Dec. 14, 2016, disclosed that
the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market issued
a letter granting the Company an extension until April 17, 2017 to
regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which
requires listed companies to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in
shareholders' equity.

Previously, the Company had received a notification letter that it
failed to maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in shareholders' equity.
In accordance with the instruction provided in the notification
letter, the Company responded to NASDAQ, applying for a full
extension together with a plan to regain compliance with Listing
Rule 5550(b)(1).  Following NASDAQ's review, NASDAQ granted the
Company's extension request.  If the Company does not regain
compliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) by
April 17, 2017 and evidence such compliance on a periodic report,
the Company may be subject to delisting from NASDAQ.

                       Going Concern Doubt

On July 25, 2016, The Troubled Company Reporter reported that the
Company remains in breach of the terms of its debt facility, and is
negotiating a new long term debt facility.  The continued
consumption of cash has raised substantial doubt about DragonWave
Inc.'s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans
to restructure the business and overcome these difficulties include
initiatives in a number of areas which includes targeting its sales
efforts to direct and indirect opportunities in markets with higher
gross margins, and lower working capital requirements; adjusting
its business focus and resources away from Nokia in order to
support new sales channels; renegotiating the terms of existing
debt facilities; continuing to minimize fixed and variable
operating expenses, by tightly controlling discretionary spending
and headcount growth; actively investigating and pursuing
alternative forms of financing; reducing inventory levels in both
raw material and finished goods inventory; and working closely with
vendors to ensure supply continuity.

DRAW ANOTHER CIRCLE: Plan Filing Period Extended to Jan. 24
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Kevin J. Carey of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District
of Delaware extended Draw Another Circle, LLC, et al.'s exclusive
periods for filing a chapter 11 plan and soliciting acceptances to
the plan to January 24, 2016 and March 27, 2017, respectively.

The Debtors previously sought the extension of their exclusive
periods, telling the Court that they had made significant progress
in the case:   they had completed store closing sales, closed all
of their retail locations and sold substantially all of their
assets, as well as resolved a significant number of disputes.  

The Debtors further told the Court that they had drafted and are in
the process of finalizing a joint combined disclosure statement and
plan of liquidation with the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors, which the Debtors intended to file in the very near
future.  

The Debtors related that they were working diligently to seek
confirmation of a liquidating plan, to distribute the value
obtained from the various sales and other assets to their various
creditor constituencies, and to conclude their chapter 11 cases as
quickly as possible.

The Debtors further related that the extension would permit them to
prepare and solicit support for what the Debtors anticipate to be a
consensual chapter 11 plan in the near future.

E-WORLD USA: Incurs $2.03 Million Net Loss in March 2015 Quarter
----------------------------------------------------------------
E-World USA Holding, Inc., filed with the Securities and Exchange
commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing a net loss
of $2.03 million on $250,804 of total sales for the three months
ended March 31, 2015, compared to net income of $2.90 million on
$3.93 million of total sales for the three months ended March 31,
2014.

As of March 31, 2015, E-World USA had $27.06 million in total
assets, $38.35 million in total liabilities and a total
shareholders' deficit of $11.29 million.

As of March 31, 2015, the Company had a cash balance of $296,299
and $317,346 at
Dec. 31, 2014.  The Company said its cash balance at March 31,
2015, and Dec. 31, 2014, was significantly impacted by the
inability to access approximately $3,643,000 in cash held in bank
accounts in the People's Republic of China.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, cash used in operating
activities amounted to approximately $0.2 million as compared to
approximately $52,000 used in operating activities in the same
period ended 2014.  Cash used in operating activities was mainly
due to approximately $1.9 million of net loss from the Company and
the decrease of approximately $0.1 million of deferred revenue,
offset by net cash provided by operating activities from
discontinued operations of approximately $0.9 million, the decrease
of inventory of approximately $0.1 million as we are anticipating a
weaker sales for the remainder of 2015 and net of approximately
$0.9 million of non-cash operating activities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, cash used in investing
activities amounted to approximately $66,000.  Cash used in
investing was mainly due to Prime purchasing equipment for its
operations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, financing activities
provided approximately $1.0 million as compared to the same period
in 2014 when we used approximately $22,000 to repay related parties
and shareholder advances.  Cash received in the three months ended
March 31, 2005, for the amount of $1.1 million was from the
Company's principal shareholder and chief executive officer.

Other than operating expenses, the Company does not have
significant cash commitments.  Cash requirements include cash
needed for payroll, payroll taxes, rent, and other operating
expenses.  However in response to the reduced liquidity factors,
the Company said it has continued find ways to reduce the Company's
operating expenses.  In addition, the Company said should it need
additional capital, its principal shareholder and chief executive
officer may lend money to the Company from time to time to the
extent he is in a position to do so.

"Management has concluded under generally accepted accounting
principles that there is substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern as a result of our lack of significant
revenues.  If we are unable to generate significant revenue or
secure financing, we may be required to cease or limit our
operations.  Our financial statements do not include adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty," the
Company said in the quarterly report.

response to the legal action taken by the Chinese authorities that
resulted in freezing approximately $3,643,000 of funds held in a
Chinese account, since June 2014, the Company had mainly sold its
products over the Internet directly to end-user customers, and
sales have decreased in a material amount due to the elimination of
the use of DSA's.

of total sales for the year ended Dec. 31, 2014, compared with a

                      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 Sept. 30, 2016, Elbit Imaging had NIS 2.60 billion in total
assets, NIS 2.37 billion in total liabilities and NIS 231.65
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.


EMMAUS LIFE: Receives Japanese Patent for Use of L-glutamine
------------------------------------------------------------
Emmaus announced the allowance of patent application number
2014-547181, directed to the treatment of diverticulosis, by the
Japanese Patent Office.  The allowance of this application follows
the issuance of corresponding patents in both Australia (Pat. No.
2012355956, November 3, 2016) and China (Pat. No. 104114165,
October 19, 2016).  Related patent applications are currently
pending in various jurisdictions around the world, including the
United States, Europe, South Korea, Brazil, Russia, India, Mexico
and Indonesia.

The allowed Japanese application reports a significant reduction in
the number of intestinal diverticula, the primary indicator of
diverticulosis, through therapeutic application of L-glutamine.
There are no commercial therapies that claim an ability to reduce
intestinal diverticula at the present time.

The covered invention is directed to methods and/or compositions
for the treatment of diverticulosis.  It is more specifically
directed to compositions including L-glutamine and/or uses of such
compositions in the treatment of diverticulosis.  Diverticulosis
refers to a condition where pouches (i.e., diverticula) form along
the colon wall.  Over time, some people get an infection in the
pouches (diverticulitis).  Epidemiological studies indicate that
the prevalence of this disease is increasing worldwide.  It is
estimated that at least 50% of the population over the age of 60 in
the United States, Europe and Australia have diverticulosis.  In
Japan, a recent study found diverticulosis in 20.3% of the
investigated population (mean age 67.6 years).

According to Yutaka Niihara, MD, MPH, Chairman and CEO of Emmaus,
the Company is in the process of developing PGLG for the treatment
of diverticulosis, in addition to seeking US Food & Drug
Administration approval to market the product for the treatment of
sickle cell disease in adults and pediatric patients.  "We believe
that PGLG has the potential to address a range of unmet medical
needs and we are working to expand the number of therapeutic
indications," Niihara says.  "These patents will allow us to
protect our intellectual property as we continue research and
product development."  The company recently announced the FDA has
set a PDUFA date of July 7, 2017, for a decision on the Company's
new drug application for the use of PGLG to treat sickle cell
disease.

                       About Emmaus Life

Emmaus Life Sciences, Inc., is engaged in the discovery,
development, and commercialization of treatments and therapies
primarily for rare and orphan diseases.  This biopharmaceutical
company's headquarters is in Torrance, California.

Emmaus Life reported a net loss of $12.7 million on $590,114 of
net revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, compared to a net

ended Dec. 31, 2014.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Emmaus Life had $21.56 million in total
assets, $30.84 million in total liabilities and a total
stockholders' deficit of $9.28 million.

SingerLewak LLP, in Los Angeles, California, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements for
the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, citing that the Company has suffered
recurring losses from operations, its total liabilities exceed its
total assets and it has an accumulated stockholders' deficit.  This
raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern.

FANNIE MAE: FHFA Releases 2017 Conservatorship Scorecard
--------------------------------------------------------
The Federal Housing Finance Agency released the 2017
conservatorship scorecard, which establishes corporate performance
objectives for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, including the relative
weighting of each.

A principal element of 2017 compensation for Fannie Mae's officers
identified as "executive officers" in its annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, other than its chief
executive officer, will be deferred salary, a portion of which will
be subject to reduction, or "at-risk," based on performance. Fannie
Mae expects that one half of the 2017 at-risk deferred salary for
its executives will be subject to reduction based on the Company's
performance against the 2017 conservatorship scorecard and
additional objectives FHFA may establish.  FHFA will have the
primary role in determining whether Fannie Mae has achieved the
objectives, with input from management and our Board of Directors.

2017 Conservatorship Scorecard (Corporate Performance Objectives)

For all Scorecard items, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the
Enterprises) and Common Securitization Solutions will be assessed
based on the following criteria:

Assessment Criteria

  * The extent to which each Enterprise conducts initiatives in a
    safe and sound manner consistent with FHFA's expectations for
    all activities;

  * The extent to which the outcomes of their activities support a
    competitive and resilient secondary mortgage market to support

    homeowners and renters;

  * The extent to which each Enterprise conducts initiatives with
    consideration for diversity and inclusion consistent with
    FHFA's expectations for all activities;

  * Cooperation and collaboration with FHFA, each other, the
    industry, and other stakeholders; and

  * The quality, thoroughness, creativity, effectiveness, and
    timeliness of their work products.

Maintain, in a safe and sound manner, credit availability and
foreclosure prevention activities for new and refinanced mortgages
to foster liquid, efficient, competitive, and resilient national
housing finance markets. (40%)

FHFA expects the Enterprises to efficiently and effectively operate
their single-family and multifamily business activities in a manner
that supports safety and soundness, market liquidity, and access to
credit.

The Enterprises are to:

Work to increase access to single-family mortgage credit for
creditworthy borrowers, including underserved segments of the
market:

* Continue to assess opportunities to address credit access and
  develop recommendations for improvements where appropriate:

    * Conduct research to assess opportunities for responsibly
      supporting access to credit for underserved borrower groups.

    * Leveraging research and analysis, develop pilots and
      initiatives that take into account the changing
      circumstances and needs of the borrower population.

    * Support access to credit for borrowers with limited English
      proficiency by assessing the impact of language barriers
      throughout the mortgage life cycle and developing a plan to
      improve access to credit that is appropriate for the
      Enterprises.

* Continue to improve the effectiveness of pre-purchase counseling

  and homeownership education through technology, data analysis,   
  
  and other opportunities as appropriate.

* Conclude assessment of updated credit score models for
  underwriting, pricing, and investor disclosures, and, as
  appropriate, plan for implementation.

Finalize post-crisis loss mitigation activities:

* Implement the post-crisis permanent modification for borrowers
  with long-term hardships and finalize related activities,
  including updates to the Uniform Borrower Assistance Form.

* Develop other post-crisis loss mitigation options for borrowers,

  including solutions for borrowers with short-term hardships and
  guidelines for foreclosure alternatives such as short sale and
  deed-in-lieu.  Develop an implementation plan and timeline for
  these offerings.

Continue to responsibly reduce the number of severely-aged
delinquent loans and real estate owned properties:

* Continue to implement strategies to responsibly reduce the
   number of severely-aged delinquent loans held by the
   Enterprises with a focus on providing home retention options
   for borrowers when possible, including through non-performing
   loan sales.

* Continue to responsibly reduce the number of real estate owned
   properties held by the Enterprises, including through the   
   Neighborhood Stabilization Initiative.

Assess the current mortgage servicing business model:

* With the objective of ensuring ongoing liquidity in the
   mortgage servicing market and ensuring counterparty strength,
   initiate a multiyear assessment of both the challenges facing
   the mortgage servicing market and potential solutions for
   identified issues.

* Work collaboratively with industry stakeholders and seek
   stakeholder feedback in assessing these challenges and
   potential solutions.

Explore opportunities to further support liquidity in multifamily
affordable housing:

* Explore opportunities to further support liquidity in
  multifamily affordable housing, including through pilots and
  initiatives.  Research and analysis are encouraged in the
  following areas: workforce housing, affordability in high-cost
  and very-high cost areas, targeted affordable housing, small
  multifamily properties, manufactured housing rental community
  blanket loans, senior housing, rural housing, energy efficiency,
  and other areas as identified by the Enterprises.

Manage the dollar volume of new multifamily business to remain at
or below $36.5 billion for each Enterprise:

* Loans in affordable and underserved market segments, as defined

   in Appendix A, are to be excluded from the $36.5 billion cap.

Reduce taxpayer risk through increasing the role of private capital
in the mortgage market. (30%)

The Enterprises are to:

FHFA expects the Enterprises to continue single-family and
multifamily credit risk transfers as core business practices.  FHFA
will adjust targets as necessary to reflect market conditions and
economic considerations.

Single-Family Credit Risk Transfers:

* Transfer a meaningful portion of credit risk on at least 90
  percent of the unpaid principal balance (UPB) of newly acquired
  single-family mortgages in loan categories targeted for risk
  transfer.  For 2017, targeted single-family loan categories
  include: non-HARP and non-high LTV refinance, fixed-rate
  mortgages with terms greater than 20 years and loan to value
  ratios above 60 percent.

* Continue efforts to evaluate and implement economically feasible

  ways to transfer credit risk on other types of newly acquired
  single-family mortgages that are not included in the targeted
  loan categories.

* Identify, evaluate, and address significant issues from the 2016

  Request for Input on advancing the Enterprises' credit risk
  transfer programs, including through consideration of front-end
  credit risk transfers.

Multifamily Credit Risk Transfers:

* Transfer a meaningful portion of credit risk on at least 80
  percent of the UPB of newly acquired multifamily mortgages.

* Continue efforts to evaluate, and implement if economically
  feasible, further ways to transfer additional credit risk.

     consider impacts to the market, borrowers, and neighborhood
     stability.

Private Mortgage Insurer Eligibility Requirements (PMIERs 2.0):

  * Evaluate existing PMIERs and whether changes or updates are
    appropriate.

Build a new single-family infrastructure for use by the Enterprises
and adaptable for use by other participants in the secondary market
in the future. (30%)
The Enterprises are to:

Common Securitization Platform and Single Security:

The Common Securitization Platform (CSP) and Single Security are
significant, multiyear initiatives, and FHFA expects these
inter-related projects to remain ongoing conservatorship
priorities. FHFA expects the Enterprises and Common Securitization
Solutions, LLC (CSS) to implement the Single Security on the CSP
for both Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in 2018.

   * Continue working with FHFA, each other, and CSS to: 1) build
     and test the CSP; 2) implement the changes necessary to
     integrate the Enterprises' related systems and operations
     with the CSP; and 3) implement the Single Security on the CSP

     for both Enterprises.

   * Incorporate the following design principles in developing the

     CSP:

      * Focus on the functions necessary for current Enterprise
        single-family securitization activities.

      * Include the development of operational and system
        capabilities necessary for CSP to facilitate the issuance
        and administration of a Single Security for the
        Enterprises.

* Allow for the integration of additional market participants in
  the future.

* Continue to work with each other and CSS to obtain and utilize
  input from the Single Security/CSP Industry Advisory Group.

Provide Active Support for Mortgage Data standardization
Initiatives:
    
* Continue the development and implementation of the Uniform
  Closing Disclosure Dataset.

Appendix A: Multifamily Definitions

1. Market share target and quarterly review of market size
The 2017 Scorecard establishes a $36.5 billion cap on the
multifamily purchase volume of each Enterprise (the "capped
category").  Loans in affordable and underserved market segments
are excluded from the cap (the "excluded category").  FHFA will
review the Agency's estimates of the multifamily loan origination
market size on a quarterly basis.  If FHFA determines that the
actual 2017 market size is greater than was projected, it will
apply an appropriate increase to the capped category.  If FHFA
determines that the actual 2017 market size is smaller than was
projected, it will not reduce the capped category.

The following sections explain how FHFA will treat loans in the
affordable and underserved market segments.

2. Loans on targeted affordable housing properties
Targeted affordable housing loans are loans to properties
encumbered by a regulatory agreement or a recorded use restriction
under which all or a portion of the units are restricted for
occupancy by tenants with limited incomes and which may restrict
the rents that can be charged for those units.  FHFA will exclude a
proportionate amount of the loan for properties in the targeted
affordable category, depending on the percentage of units that are
restricted by a regulatory agreement or recorded use restriction.
FHFA will exclude from the cap 50 percent of the loan amount if the
percentage of restricted units is less than 50 percent of the total
units in a project, and will exclude 100 percent of the loan amount
if the percentage of restricted units is equal to or more than 50
percent.

The following are examples of loans on targeted affordable housing
properties that FHFA will exclude from the capped category:

  * Loans on properties subsidized by the Low Income Housing Tax
    Credit program, which limits tenant incomes at 60 percent of
    area median income (AMI) or below;

  * Loans on properties developed under state or local
    inclusionary zoning, real estate tax abatement, loan or     
    similar programs, where the property owner has agreed to: a)
    restrict a portion of the units for occupancy by tenants with
    limited incomes in accordance with the requirements of the
    state or local program and restrict the rents that can be
    charged for those units at rents affordable to those tenants;
    and b) enforce these restrictions through a regulatory
    agreement or recorded use restriction; and

  * Loans on properties covered by a Section 8 Housing Assistance
    Payment contract where the contract limits tenant incomes to
    80 percent of AMI or below.  FHFA will not consider a unit
    that is occupied by a Section 8 certificate or voucher holder  

    as a targeted affordable housing unit unless there is also a
    contract or a regulatory agreement or a recorded use
    restriction.  

On a case-by-case basis, FHFA will consider Enterprise requests to
exclude other loans from the capped category that meet affordable
housing and mission goals but do not meet the exact definition of
targeted affordable housing.

3. Loans on other affordable units

FHFA will exclude from the capped category units whose rents are
affordable to tenants at various income thresholds but that are not
subject to a regulatory agreement or recorded use restriction. FHFA
will exclude the pro rata portion of the loan amount based on the
percentage of units with affordable, unsubsidized/market rents, as
described below.

a. Loans on affordable units in standard markets
Standard markets are those that are not located in rural areas or
in designated high cost or very high cost markets.  For properties
located in these markets, the income threshold for affordability is
60 percent of AMI or below.

b. Loans on affordable units in high cost or very high cost markets


In high cost markets as designated by FHFA, the income threshold
for affordability is 80 percent of AMI or below.  In very high cost
markets as designated by FHFA, the income threshold for
affordability is 100 percent of AMI or below.

4. Loans on properties located in rural areas

Rural areas are those areas as designated in the Duty to Serve
rule. FHFA will exclude the pro rata portion of the loan amount
based on the percentage of units affordable at 80 percent of AMI or
below.  Very high cost market adjustments are not available.

5. Loans on small multifamily properties

Small multifamily properties are properties that have 5 to 50
units.  FHFA will exclude the pro rata portion of the loan amount
based on the percentage of units affordable at 80 percent of AMI or
below in standard and high cost markets, and 100 percent of AMI or
below in very high cost markets.

6. Manufactured housing rental community blanket loans
Loans to manufactured housing rental communities are blanket loans
secured by the land and the rental pads.  FHFA will exclude the
full loan amount of a manufactured housing rental community blanket
loan.

7. Loans on seniors housing assisted living properties

For loans on seniors housing assisted living properties, FHFA will
exclude the pro rata portion of the loan amount based on the
percentage of units affordable at 80 percent of AMI or below.  Very
high cost market adjustments are not available.

8. Loans to finance energy or water efficiency improvements

Loans to finance energy or water efficiency improvements are loans
funded by the Enterprises under their own specialized financing
programs for this purpose.  The full loan amount under the Fannie
Mae Green Rewards and Freddie Mac Green Up and Green Up Plus loan
programs will be excluded from the cap.  For loans funded under the
Fannie Mae Green Building Certification program, and the Freddie
Mac Green Certified program, exclude 50 percent of the loan amount
if at least 20 percent but less than 50 percent of the unit rents
are affordable by applying the income limits in Section 3 and
exclude 100 percent of the loan amount if the percentage of
affordable units is equal to or more than 50 percent.

9. Other Scorecard requirements
For purposes of reporting on loan and commitment activity under the
2017 Scorecard, the Enterprises must: a) use the definitions for
determining unit affordability of seniors housing assisted living
units, coop units and shared living arrangements, including student
housing, that are included in the August 2015 housing goals
regulation; b) use affordability data as of the loan acquisition
date; c) report monthly to FHFA on their acquisition and commitment
volumes using a reporting format that aligns with the Scorecard
categories; and d) report quarterly on their acquisition volumes
under the capped category and under the affordable and underserved
excluded category in a public disclosure using a reporting format
to be determined by FHFA.

                About Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac

Federal National Mortgage Association (OTCQB: FNMA), commonly
known as Fannie Mae -- http://www.FannieMae.com/-- is a
government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) that was chartered by U.S.
Congress in 1938 to support liquidity, stability and affordability
in the secondary mortgage market, where existing mortgage-related
assets are purchased and sold.

A brother organization of Fannie Mae is the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), better known as Freddie Mac.
Freddie Mac (OTCBB: FMCC) -- http://www.FreddieMac.com/-- was
established by Congress in 1970 to provide liquidity, stability and
affordability to the nation's residential mortgage markets.
Freddie Mac supports communities across the nation by providing
mortgage capital to lenders.

During the time of the subprime mortgage crisis, on Sept. 6, 2008,
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were placed into conservatorship by the
U.S. Treasury.  The Treasury committed to invest up to $200
billion in preferred stock and extend credit through 2009 to keep
the GSEs solvent and operating.  Both GSEs are still operating
under the conservatorship of the Federal Housing Finance Agency
(FHFA).

In exchange for future support and capital investments of up to
$100 billion in each GSE, each GSE agreed to issue to the Treasury
(i) $1 billion of senior preferred stock, with a 10% coupon,
without cost to the Treasury and (ii) common stock warrants
representing an ownership stake of 79.9%, at an exercise price of
one-thousandth of a U.S. cent ($0.00001) per share, and with a
warrant duration of 20 years.

                       Financial Results

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Fannie Mae had $3.25 trillion in total
assets, $3.25 trillion in total liabilities and $4.17 billion in
total equity.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Freddie Mac had $2.015 trillion in total
assets, $2.011 trillion in total liabilities and $3.510 billion in
total equity.

For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2016, Fannie Mae reported net
income of $7.27 billion on $79.88 billion of total interest income
compared with net income of $8.48 billion on $82.07 billion of
total interest income for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2015.

For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2016, Freddie Mac reported net
income of $2.968 billion on $49.16 billion of total interest
income compared with net income of $4.218 billion on $50.21 billion
of total interest income for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2015.

FERRO CORP: S&P Affirms 'BB-' CCR & Revises Outlook to Stable
-------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its ratings on Ohio-based chemical
company Ferro Corp., including its 'BB-' corporate credit rating,
and revised the rating outlook to stable from developing.

At the same time, S&P affirmed its 'BB-' issue-level rating on the
company's senior secured debt.  The recovery rating remains '3',
indicating S&P's expectation of meaningful (50% to 70%; higher half
of the range) recovery in the event of payment default.

"The outlook revision follows the conclusion of Ferro's board of
director's review of strategic alternatives and conversations with
the company regarding financial policies," said S&P Global Ratings
credit analyst Mark Tarnecki.

S&P expects that the company will focus its value creation strategy
on supplementing organic growth opportunities through bolt-on
acquisitions, and improving profitability.  S&P's current ratings
do not factor in any transformational acquisitions, as it expects
inorganic growth to come from bolt-on acquisitions to supplement
the company's product and geographic reach.  S&P believes the
potential for a merger or sale of the company over the next one to
two years appears remote.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's belief that profitability will
gradually improve in the next one to two years as a result of both
cost-saving initiatives, as well as the integration of the
company's recently acquired, higher-margin-generating companies.
S&P's ratings assume management will continue to pursue its growth
initiatives, while maintaining credit measures at levels in line
with a significant financial risk profile.  Based on S&P's
forecasts, it expects that the company will maintain its pro forma
FFO-to-debt ratio about 20% on average on a sustainable basis and
debt to EBITDA below 4x.

"We could lower the ratings within the next 12 months if the
company is unable to successfully integrate its recently acquired
businesses, and cost-savings initiatives do not result in the
improving profitability that we expect.  Based on our downside
scenario, we would expect FFO to debt below 15% on average on a
sustainable basis (pro forma for acquisitions).  In addition, we
could also lower the ratings if, against our expectations, the
company were to undertake more aggressive financial policies such
as a large debt-funded acquisition or shareholder rewards," S&P
said.

S&P could raise the ratings within the next 12 months if the
company's integration of its recent acquisitions, along with its
ability to maintain lower costs from its recent cost-saving
initiatives, leads S&P to a reassessment of the company's business
risk profile to fair.  S&P could also raise the ratings if the
company's profitability improves beyond S&P's expectations,
resulting in stronger than-expected credit measures.  In this
scenario, S&P would expect weighted-average FFO to debt above 30%
on a sustainable basis.


FINJAN HOLDINGS: Court Finds '494 Patent Claims vs Blue Coat Valid
------------------------------------------------------------------
Finjan Holdings, Inc., provides an update on subsidiary, Finjan,
Inc.'s second patent infringement suit against Blue Coat Systems,
Inc. in Finjan v. Blue Coat, 5:15-cv-03295-BLF, before the
Honorable Beth Labson Freeman.  On Dec. 13, 2016, the Court entered
its Order Denying Blue Coat's Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings
under 35 U.S.C. Section 101, filed on Sept. 16, 2016, that asserted
claims of Finjan's U.S. Patent No. 8,677,494 ("the '494 Patent")
are invalid for lack of patentable subject matter. The Order
concluded that "the asserted claims of the '494 patent ... contain
an inventive concept sufficient to transform [the] claims into
patentable subject matter."  The Order can be found on p. 21 of
Docket No. 156.

"We are again gratified that the Court carefully and concisely
vetted our '494 Patent under controlling patent law and determined
that our '494 invention is patentable subject matter, and that the
resulting patent is valid and enforceable," commented Julie
Mar-Spinola, Finjan Holdings, CIPO.  "This and numerous other
decisions confirming the validity and enforceability of our patents
adds another layer of significance to our already valuable patent
portfolio."
    
Finjan has pending infringement lawsuits against FireEye, Inc.,
Sophos, Inc., Symantec Corp., Palo Alto Networks., Blue Coat
Systems, Inc. and ESET relating to, collectively, more than 20
patents in the Finjan portfolio.  The court dockets for the
foregoing cases are publicly available on the Public Access to
Court Electronic Records (PACER) website, www.pacer.gov, which is
operated by the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts.

FREDDIE MAC: FHFA Releases 2017 Scorecard
-----------------------------------------
The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) released on Dec. 15,
2016, the 2017 scorecard for Freddie Mac (formally known as the
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation).

One-half of a participating officer's At-Risk Deferred Salary (or
15% of Target Total Direct Compensation) under the terms of the
2015 Executive Management Compensation Program is subject to
reduction based on an assessment of Freddie Mac's performance
against the Scorecard objectives and other objectives set by FHFA.
The Scorecard is set forth below:

                  2017 Scorecard for Freddie Mac

For all Scorecard items, Freddie Mac will be assessed based on the
following criteria:

Assessment Criteria

   * The extent to which Freddie Mac conducts initiatives in a
     safe and sound manner consistent with FHFA's expectations for

     all activities;

housing finance markets. (40%)

FHFA expects Freddie Mac to efficiently and effectively operate its
single-family and multifamily business activities in a manner that
supports safety and soundness, market liquidity, and access to
credit.

Freddie Mac is to:

Work to increase access to single-family mortgage credit for
creditworthy borrowers, including underserved segments of the
market:

*  Continue to assess opportunities to address credit access and
   develop recommendations for improvements where appropriate:

    * Conduct research to assess opportunities for responsibly
      supporting access to credit for underserved borrower groups.

    * Leveraging research and analysis, develop pilots and
      initiatives that take into account the changing
      circumstances and needs of the borrower population.

    * Support access to credit for borrowers with limited English
      proficiency by assessing the impact of language barriers
      throughout the mortgage life cycle and developing a plan to
      improve access to credit that is appropriate for Freddie
      Mac.

* Continue to improve the effectiveness of pre-purchase  
  counseling and homeownership education through technology, data
  analysis, and other opportunities as appropriate.

* Conclude assessment of updated credit score models for
  underwriting, pricing, and investor disclosures, and, as
  appropriate, plan for implementation.

Finalize post-crisis loss mitigation activities:

  * Implement the post-crisis permanent modification for borrowers

    with long-term hardships and finalize related activities,
    including updates to the Uniform Borrower Assistance Form.

  * Develop other post-crisis loss mitigation options for
    borrowers, including solutions for borrowers with short-term
    hardships and guidelines for foreclosure alternatives such as
    short sale and deed-in-lieu.  Develop an implementation plan
    and timeline for these offerings.

Continue to responsibly reduce the number of severely-aged
delinquent loans and real estate owned properties:

  * Continue to implement strategies to responsibly reduce the
    number of severely-aged delinquent loans held by Freddie Mac
    with a focus on providing home retention options for borrowers

    when possible, including through non-performing loan sales.

  * Continue to responsibly reduce the number of real estate owned

    properties held by Freddie Mac, including through the
    Neighborhood Stabilization Initiative.

Assess the current mortgage servicing business model:

  * With the objective of ensuring ongoing liquidity in the
    mortgage servicing market and ensuring counterparty strength,
    initiate a multiyear assessment of both the challenges facing
    the mortgage servicing market and potential solutions for
    identified issues.

  * Work collaboratively with industry stakeholders and seek
    stakeholder feedback in assessing these challenges and
    potential solutions.

Explore opportunities to further support liquidity in multifamily
affordable housing:

  * Explore opportunities to further support liquidity in   
    multifamily affordable housing, including through pilots and
    initiatives.  Research and analysis are encouraged in the
    following areas: workforce housing, affordability in high-cost

    and very-high cost areas, targeted affordable housing, small
    multifamily properties, manufactured housing rental community
    blanket loans, senior housing, rural housing, energy
    efficiency, and other areas as identified by Freddie Mac.

Manage the dollar volume of new multifamily business to remain at
or below $36.5 billion for Freddie Mac:

  * Loans in affordable and underserved market segments, as
    defined in Appendix A, are to be excluded from the $36.5
    billion cap.

Reduce taxpayer risk through increasing the role of private capital
in the mortgage market. (30%)

Freddie Mac is to:

FHFA expects Freddie Mac to continue single-family and multifamily
credit risk transfers as core business practices.  FHFA will adjust
targets as necessary to reflect market conditions and economic
considerations.

Single-Family Credit Risk Transfers:

  * Transfer a meaningful portion of credit risk on at least 90
    percent of the unpaid principal balance (UPB) of newly
    acquired single-family mortgages in loan categories targeted
    for risk transfer.  For 2017, targeted single-family loan
    categories include: non-HARP and non-high LTV refinance,
    fixed-rate mortgages with terms greater than 20 years and loan

    to value ratios above 60 percent.

  * Continue efforts to evaluate and implement economically
    feasible ways to transfer credit risk on other types of newly
    acquired single-family mortgages that are not included in the
    targeted loan categories.

  * Identify, evaluate, and address significant issues from the
    2016 Request for Input on advancing Freddie Mac's and Fannie
    Mae's credit risk transfer programs, including through
    consideration of front-end credit risk transfers.

Multifamily Credit Risk Transfers:

  * Transfer a meaningful portion of credit risk on at least 80
    percent of the UPB of newly acquired multifamily mortgages.

  * Continue efforts to evaluate, and implement if economically
    feasible, further ways to transfer additional credit risk.

Retained Portfolio:

  * Execute FHFA-approved retained portfolio plans that meet, even

    under adverse conditions, the annual PSPA requirements and the

    $250 billion PSPA cap by Dec. 31, 2018.

  * Any sales should be commercially reasonable transactions that
    consider impacts to the market, borrowers, and neighborhood
    stability.

Private Mortgage Insurer Eligibility Requirements (PMIERs 2.0):

  * Evaluate existing PMIERs and whether changes or updates are
    appropriate.

Build a new single-family infrastructure for use by the Enterprises
and adaptable for use by other participants in the secondary market
in the future. (30%)

Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae (the "Enterprises") are to:

Common Securitization Platform and Single Security:

The Common Securitization Platform (CSP) and Single Security are
significant, multiyear initiatives, and FHFA expects these
inter-related projects to remain ongoing conservatorship
priorities. FHFA expects the Enterprises and Common Securitization
Solutions, LLC (CSS) to implement the Single Security on the CSP
for both Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae in 2018.

* Continue working with FHFA, each other, and CSS to: 1) build
   and test the CSP; 2) implement the changes necessary to
   integrate the Enterprises' related systems and operations with
   the CSP; and 3) implement the Single Security on the CSP for
   both Enterprises.

* Incorporate the following design principles in developing the
   CSP:

    * Focus on the functions necessary for current Enterprise
      single-family securitization activities.

    * Include the development of operational and system
      capabilities necessary for CSP to facilitate the issuance
      and administration of a Single Security for the Enterprises.

   * Allow for the integration of additional market participants
     in the future.

* Continue to work with each other and CSS to obtain and utilize
  input from the Single Security/CSP Industry Advisory Group.

Provide Active Support for Mortgage Data standardization
Initiatives:

  * Continue the development and implementation of the Uniform
    Closing Disclosure Dataset.

Appendix A: Multifamily Definitions

1. Market share target and quarterly review of market size

The 2017 Scorecard establishes a $36.5 billion cap on the
multifamily purchase volume of each Enterprise (the "capped
category").  Loans in affordable and underserved market segments
are excluded from the cap (the "excluded category").  FHFA will
review the Agency's estimates of the multifamily loan origination
market size on a quarterly basis.  If FHFA determines that the
actual 2017 market size is greater than was projected, it will
apply an appropriate increase to the capped category.  If FHFA
determines that the actual 2017 market size is smaller than was
projected, it will not reduce the capped category.

The following sections explain how FHFA will treat loans in the
affordable and underserved market segments.

2. Loans on targeted affordable housing properties

Targeted affordable housing loans are loans to properties
encumbered by a regulatory agreement or a recorded use restriction
under which all or a portion of the units are restricted for
occupancy by tenants with limited incomes and which may restrict
the rents that can be charged for those units.  FHFA will exclude a
proportionate amount of the loan for properties in the targeted
affordable category, depending on the percentage of units that are
restricted by a regulatory agreement or recorded use restriction.
FHFA will exclude from the cap 50 percent of the loan amount if the
percentage of restricted units is less than 50 percent of the total
units in a project, and will exclude 100 percent of the loan amount
if the percentage of restricted units is equal to or more than 50
percent.

The following are examples of loans on targeted affordable housing
properties that FHFA will exclude from the capped category:

   * Loans on properties subsidized by the Low Income Housing Tax
     Credit program, which limits tenant incomes at 60 percent of
     area median income (AMI) or below;

   * Loans on properties developed under state or local
     inclusionary zoning, real estate tax abatement, loan or
     similar programs, where the property owner has agreed to: a)
     restrict a portion of the units for occupancy by tenants with

     limited incomes in accordance with the requirements of the
     state or local program and restrict the rents that can be
     charged for those units at rents affordable to those tenants;

     and b) enforce these restrictions through a regulatory
     agreement or recorded use restriction; and

   * Loans on properties covered by a Section 8 Housing Assistance

     Payment contract where the contract limits tenant incomes to
     80 percent of AMI or below.  FHFA will not consider a unit
     that is occupied by a Section 8 certificate or voucher holder

     as a targeted affordable housing unit unless there is also a
     contract or a regulatory agreement or a recorded use
     restriction.

On a case-by-case basis, FHFA will consider Enterprise requests to
exclude other loans from the capped category that meet affordable
housing and mission goals but do not meet the exact definition of
targeted affordable housing.

3. Loans on other affordable units

FHFA will exclude from the capped category units whose rents are
affordable to tenants at various income thresholds but that are not
subject to a regulatory agreement or recorded use restriction. FHFA
will exclude the pro rata portion of the loan amount based on the
percentage of units with affordable, unsubsidized/market rents, as
described below.

   a. Loans on affordable units in standard markets

Standard markets are those that are not located in rural areas or
in designated high cost or very high cost markets.  For properties
located in these markets, the income threshold for affordability is
60 percent of AMI or below.

   b. Loans on affordable units in high cost or very high cost
markets

In high cost markets as designated by FHFA, the income threshold
for affordability is 80 percent of AMI or below. In very high cost
markets as designated by FHFA, the income threshold for
affordability is 100 percent of AMI or below.

   4. Loans on properties located in rural areas

Rural areas are those areas as designated in the Duty to Serve
rule.  FHFA will exclude the pro rata portion of the loan amount
based on the percentage of units affordable at 80 percent of AMI or
below.  Very high cost market adjustments are not available.

   5. Loans on small multifamily properties

Small multifamily properties are properties that have 5 to 50
units.  FHFA will exclude the pro rata portion of the loan amount
based on the percentage of units affordable at 80 percent of AMI or
below in standard and high cost markets, and 100 percent of AMI or
below in very high cost markets.

   6. Manufactured housing rental community blanket loans

Loans to manufactured housing rental communities are blanket loans
secured by the land and the rental pads.  FHFA will exclude the
full loan amount of a manufactured housing rental community blanket
loan.

   7. Loans on seniors housing assisted living properties

For loans on seniors housing assisted living properties, FHFA will
exclude the pro rata portion of the loan amount based on the
percentage of units affordable at 80 percent of AMI or below.  Very
high cost market adjustments are not available.

   8. Loans to finance energy or water efficiency improvements

Loans to finance energy or water efficiency improvements are loans
funded by the Enterprises under their own specialized financing
programs for this purpose.  The full loan amount under the Fannie
Mae Green Rewards and Freddie Mac Green Up and Green Up Plus loan
programs will be excluded from the cap.  For loans funded under the
Fannie Mae Green Building Certification program, and the Freddie
Mac Green Certified program, exclude 50 percent of the loan amount
if at least 20 percent but less than 50 percent of the unit rents
are affordable by applying the income limits in Section 3 and
exclude 100 percent of the loan amount if the percentage of
affordable units is equal to or more than 50 percent.

   9. Other Scorecard requirements

For purposes of reporting on loan and commitment activity under the
2017 Scorecard, the Enterprises must: a) use the definitions for
determining unit affordability of seniors housing assisted living
units, coop units and shared living arrangements, including student
housing, that are included in the August 2015 housing goals
regulation; b) use affordability data as of the loan acquisition
date; c) report monthly to FHFA on their acquisition and commitment
volumes using a reporting format that aligns with the Scorecard
categories; and d) report quarterly on their acquisition volumes
under the capped category and under the affordable and underserved
excluded category in a public disclosure using a reporting format
to be determined by FHFA.

                About Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac

Federal National Mortgage Association (OTCQB: FNMA), commonly
known as Fannie Mae -- http://www.FannieMae.com/-- is a
government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) that was chartered by U.S.
Congress in 1938 to support liquidity, stability and affordability
in the secondary mortgage market, where existing mortgage-related
assets are purchased and sold.

A brother organization of Fannie Mae is the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), better known as Freddie Mac.
Freddie Mac (OTCBB: FMCC) -- http://www.FreddieMac.com/-- was
established by Congress in 1970 to provide liquidity, stability and
affordability to the nation's residential mortgage markets.
Freddie Mac supports communities across the nation by providing
mortgage capital to lenders.

During the time of the subprime mortgage crisis, on Sept. 6, 2008,
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were placed into conservatorship by the
U.S. Treasury.  The Treasury committed to invest up to $200
billion in preferred stock and extend credit through 2009 to keep
the GSEs solvent and operating.  Both GSEs are still operating
under the conservatorship of the Federal Housing Finance Agency
(FHFA).

In exchange for future support and capital investments of up to
$100 billion in each GSE, each GSE agreed to issue to the Treasury
(i) $1 billion of senior preferred stock, with a 10% coupon,
without cost to the Treasury and (ii) common stock warrants
representing an ownership stake of 79.9%, at an exercise price of
one-thousandth of a U.S. cent ($0.00001) per share, and with a
warrant duration of 20 years.

                       Financial Results

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Fannie Mae had $3.25 trillion in total
assets, $3.25 trillion in total liabilities and $4.17 billion in
total equity.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Freddie Mac had $2.015 trillion in total
assets, $2.011 trillion in total liabilities and $3.510 billion in
total equity.

For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2016, Fannie Mae reported net
income of $7.27 billion on $79.88 billion of total interest income
compared with net income of $8.48 billion on $82.07 billion of
total interest income for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2015.

For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2016, Freddie Mac reported net
income of $2.968 billion on $49.16 billion of total interest
income compared with net income of $4.218 billion on $50.21 billion
of total interest income for the nine months ended
Sept. 30, 2015.


GABEL LEASE: Committee Taps Stumbo Hanson as Legal Counsel

                   About Gabel Lease Service

Gabel Lease Service, Inc., operates as a roustabout company in and
around Ness City, Kansas.  GLS also sells pumping units to
customers. Due to the current economic climate, GLS's business
suffered a significant decrease in cash flow.  The drop in
oil-and-gas prices has decreased the frequency in which GLS
provides roustabout services to customers and decreased the number
of customers willing to purchase pumping units from GLS.

Early 2016, Larson Engineering, Inc., d/b/a Larson Operating Co.,
filed suit against GLS in Ness County District Court, alleging that
it purchased 28 Gabel pumping units in 2008 and 2009 from GLS and
took delivery of only 5 pumping unit over a 5-year period.

Eventually, on Dec. 7, 2015, Larson claims it demanded the
delivery of the remaining units and filed suit when GLS failed to
do so. Facing the Larson Suit and other cash-flow problems, Gabel
Lease Service filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. D. Kan. 16-11948)
on Oct. 5, 2016.  The case is assigned to Judge Robert E. Nugent.
The petition was signed by Brian Gabel, president.  The Debtor is
represented by Nicholas R. Grillot, Esq., at Hinkle Law Firm, LLC.

At the time of filing, the Debtor estimated assets at $100,000 to
$500,000 and liabilities at $1 million to $10 million in estimated
liabilities.


GARLOCK SEALING: Obtains Asbestos Claimant Votes for Joint Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
EnPro Industries, Inc. on Dec. 19, 2016, reported that its
subsidiaries, Garlock Sealing Technologies LLC ("GST") and Coltec
Industries Inc ("Coltec"), have obtained the asbestos claimant
votes necessary for approval of the consensual joint plan of
reorganization to resolve all current and future asbestos claims.
The joint plan of reorganization was filed in GST's asbestos claims
resolution process under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code pending
in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North
Carolina (the "Bankruptcy Court").

The solicitation process for this approval was completed on Dec. 9,
2016.  The joint plan of reorganization requires approval by a vote
of asbestos claimants by 75% or more in number and at least
two-thirds (2/3) in dollar amount that were actually voted.  The
balloting agent tabulating the votes of asbestos claimants on Dec.
19 filed a declaration with the Bankruptcy Court certifying that
the percentages cast in favor of the joint plan significantly
exceeded each of these thresholds.  The balloting agent has
certified that, of the votes cast, 95.85% in number and 95.80% in
amount were in favor of approval of the joint plan.

The restructuring of Coltec, to facilitate the implementation of
the settlement reflected in the joint plan and which was contingent
upon approval of the joint plan by asbestos claimants, remains on
target to be completed by year end.  As contemplated by the joint
plan, the restructured Coltec (referred to as "OldCo"), which will
retain responsibility for all asbestos claims against Coltec and
rights to certain insurance assets, intends to file a pre-packaged
Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition at the end of January 2017.  EnPro
anticipates that Coltec's bankruptcy case will be administered with
GST's pending Chapter 11 proceedings.

The deadline for filing objections to the joint plan in GST's
pending Chapter 11 proceeding was December 9, 2016.  While no
asbestos claimant or creditor filed any objection to the joint
plan, objections were filed by the appointed bankruptcy
administrator and by three insurers.  The technical objection filed
by the bankruptcy administrator, which is a non-judicial, federal
appointee that is involved in cases from a perspective independent
of an interested party, concerns the scope of the joint plan's
"exculpatory" provisions that would extend limited protection to
the debtors in the case, their affiliates, committees appointed in
the case, the future claimants' representative and their respective
professional advisors from liability for ancillary claims related
to their actions or failure to act in connection with the case.
The objections of the three insurers primarily concern the impact
of the joint plan on insurance policies and related contracts to
which they are parties.  The deadline for the filing of objections
to the joint plan in OldCo's anticipated Chapter 11 proceeding is
expected to be March 24, 2017.  The hearing on objections to the
joint plan and to determine whether the Bankruptcy Court will
confirm the joint plan will commence on May 15, 2017.

Steve Macadam, EnPro's President and Chief Executive Officer, said,
"This vote is an important milestone in our effort to permanently
resolve these asbestos claims.  Although objections have been filed
by the bankruptcy administrator and several insurers, we believe
these objections, which we generally anticipated, will not
materially delay approval of the joint plan of reorganization or
require any material changes to the plan. Accordingly, we continue
to anticipate receiving all necessary court approvals for
confirmation of the plan, with the target that GST and OldCo will
emerge from bankruptcy during the third quarter of 2017."

The joint plan of reorganization was proposed pursuant to a
comprehensive settlement, announced on March 17, 2016, with the
court-appointed committee representing current asbestos claimants
and the court-appointed legal representative of future asbestos
claimants in GST's asbestos claims resolution process pending in
the Bankruptcy Court, as well as with ad-hoc representatives for
current and future asbestos claimants against Coltec.  In addition
to the approval of asbestos claimants, the joint plan is subject to
approval by the Bankruptcy Court and the U.S. District Court for
the Western District of North Carolina (the "District Court") and,
if so approved and consummated, would permanently resolve all
current and future asbestos claims against GST and Coltec and would
protect all of EnPro and its subsidiaries from those claims, under
Section 524(g) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

estimating the liability for present and future mesothelioma claims
against Garlock Sealing at $125 million, consistent with the
positions GST put forth at trial.

In January 2015, the Debtors filed their Second Amended Plan of
Reorganization, which is backed by the Future Asbestos Claimants'
Representative (FCR).  The confirmation hearing is slated to begin
June 20, 2016.

Under the schedule for confirmation proceedings ordered by the
Court, objections to confirmation of the Plan that do not depend on
the results of voting were due Oct. 6, 2015, and confirmation
objections that depend on such results are due on Dec. 18, 2015.


GEO GROUP: S&P Affirms 'BB-' CCR, Off CreditWatch Negative
----------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB-' corporate credit rating on
Boca Raton, Fla.-based The GEO Group Inc., a private corrections,
detention, and community re-entry facility owner and operator.  The
outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P affirmed its 'BB+' issue-level ratings on the
company's senior secured revolver and term loan with a recovery
rating of '1', indicating S&P's belief that lenders could expect
very high recovery (90%-100%) in the event of payment default.  S&P
raised its issue-level rating on the senior unsecured notes to
'BB-' from 'B+'.  The recovery rating is revised to '4', indicating
our belief that lenders could expect average recovery (30%-50%, on
the lower end of the range) in the event of payment default, from
'5'.

All ratings were removed from CreditWatch, where they were placed
with negative implications on Aug. 19, 2016.

"The ratings affirmation reflects our expectation that it is less
likely that the use of private prisons in the U.S. will materially
reduce in the near to medium term and that GEO, one of the largest
domestic players, will remain an important provider of prison space
for federal and state government agencies," said S&P Global Ratings
credit analyst Katherine Heng.  This is despite the DOJ's
announcement in August of its intention to reduce use of private
prisons and the BOP's decision to amend the Criminal Alien
Requirement XVI (CAR XVI). The BOP accounted for about 14% of GEO's
revenues in 2015.

"While we view CAR XVI as the biggest risk to GEO's profitability
in 2017, we note that the BOP renewed the contract for the D Ray
James prison in Georgia with GEO, albeit with a modest modification
to the facility's contracted capacity but at a higher per diem
rate, which essentially made it economically neutral," said Ms.
Heng.  "Though we believe declining BOP demand will remain a
headwind to industry growth, we view the contract renewal as an
indication of the BOP's ongoing need for private prison operators
to complement federally operated facilities.  Moreover, we believe
the potential fallout from lost BOP volumes, if any, will be offset
by continued growth with other agencies, particularly ICE."

The ratings on GEO continue to reflect S&P Global Ratings' view
that the company benefits from high barriers to entry in the
private corrections industry, including significant capital
spending to build and maintain detention facilities; specialized
knowledge and competence to win contracts and manage the
facilities; and a good market position in a highly regulated
industry.  S&P believes that GEO will maintain its market share
because of its ability to deliver higher operating efficiency than
public facilities and that there are budget constraints in
governmental agencies that restrict them from building new
facilities.

The ratings are constrained by the company's narrow focus in an
industry that has been under heightened criticism and is subject to
headline risks and long-term policy uncertainty.  Ongoing
government budget deficits and potential shifts in public policy
are also risks that could reduce the number of people imprisoned in
the U.S. and lead to slowly declining federal and state prison
populations across at least some states.  In addition, the company
will remain dependent on a concentrated base of customers from
various levels of the U.S. and state governments.  For example, the
BOP, ICE, and the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) account for
approximately 45% of GEO's total revenue.  GEO benefits from some
revenue diversification, however, as its international business
represents approximately 14% of its total revenue.  Nevertheless,
S&P views the domestic customer concentration as a longer-term risk
due to the potential for future correctional policy changes that
could be implemented under a different administration.

S&P's stable outlook reflects its view that GEO will deliver steady
operating performance as increased demand from ICE offsets
potential volume losses from the BOP.  Furthermore, S&P believes it
is unlikely that the use of private prisons will materially
diminish in the near to medium term.  S&P expects GEO to generate
moderate top line and profit growth and generate consistent free
cash flow to modestly improve its credit ratios, including debt to
EBITDA in the mid- to high-4x area and FFO to debt in the mid-teens
area over the next year.  S&P believes, however, that the scope for
permanent debt reduction will remain limited, given the company's
high expected shareholder distributions resulting from its REIT
status.  As a result, any reduction in financial leverage is likely
to be the result of EBITDA growth.

S&P could lower its ratings if GEO's operating performance
significantly falls short of our forecast, likely the result of
contract losses with one of its federal or large state customers,
headline risk, occupancy rates falling dramatically, a dramatic
change of federal policies, or growing negative public sentiment
toward the private prison industry.  S&P could also lower its
ratings if the company's financial policy becomes more aggressive,
likely from debt-financed acquisitions or increased shareholder
distributions, resulting in debt to EBITDA sustained above 5x.  S&P
believes EBITDA would have to decline by about 5%, or debt would
have to increase by approximately $50 million, for leverage to
exceed 5x.

Although unlikely in the next year, S&P could raise its ratings if
GEO's operating performance significantly exceeds S&P's forecast,
likely through a stabilization of public policies supporting the
use of private prisons, major customer wins from new contracts
signed, or a more modest financial policy resulting in permanent
debt reduction and debt to EBITDA sustained below 4x.  S&P
estimates that EBITDA would have to increase approximately 20% or
debt would have to decrease by approximately $400 million for
leverage to decrease below 4x.


GRACIOUS HOME: Jan. 6 Meeting Set to Form Creditors' Panel
----------------------------------------------------------
William K. Harrington, Acting United States Trustee for Region 2,
will hold an organizational meeting on Jan. 6, 2016, at 11:00 a.m.
in the bankruptcy case of Gracious Home, LLC, et al.

The meeting will be held at:

               Office of the United States Trustee
               United States Bankruptcy Courthouse
               One Bowling Green, Room 511
               New York, NY 10004

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

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

To increase participation in the Chapter 11 proceeding, Section
1102 of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the United States Trustee
appoint a committee of unsecured creditors as soon as practicable.
The Committee ordinarily consists of the persons, willing to serve,
that hold the seven largest unsecured claims against the debtor of
the kinds represented on the committee.

Section 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code provides that the Committee may
consult with the debtor, investigate the debtor and its business
operations and participate in the formulation of a plan of
reorganization.  The Committee may also perform other services as
are in the interests of the unsecured creditors whom it
represents.

Gracious Home LLC and its affiliates filed for bankruptcy
protection (Bankr. S.D.N.Y., Case No. 16-13500) on December 14,
2016.  They are represented by Joseph J. DiPasquale, Esq. of Trenk,
Dipasquale, Della Ferra & Sodono, P.C.  The Debtors listed $10
million to $50 million in assets and liabilities as of the
bankruptcy filing.


GREAT BASIN: Holders OK Release of $2.7M from Restricted Accounts
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The holders of the senior secured convertible notes of Great Basin
Scientific, Inc. voluntarily removed restrictions on the Company's
use of an aggregate of approximately $2.7 million previously funded
to the Company and authorized the release of those funds from the
restricted accounts of the Company, as disclosed in a Form 8-K
report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

                      About Great Basin

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
charge in the United States, and a diagnostic cartridge, which the
Company sells to its customers.

Great Basin reported a net loss of $57.9 million in 2015 following
a net loss of $21.7 million in 2014.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Great Basin had $83.40 million in total
assets, $144.9 million in total liabilities, and a total
stockholders' deficit of $61.47 million.

Mantyla McReynolds, LLC, in Salt Lake City, Utah, issued a "going
concern" opinion in its report on the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, citing that the
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.


GREENEDEN US: S&P Raises Rating on $700MM Sr. Notes to 'CCC+'
-------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has reviewed its recovery and
issue-level ratings for Greeneden US Holdings II LLC that were
labeled under criteria observation (UCO) after publishing its
revised recovery ratings criteria on Dec. 7, 2016.  With S&P's
criteria review complete, it is removing the UCO designation from
these ratings and are raising S&P's issue-level rating on the
$700 million senior unsecured notes due in 2024 to 'CCC+' from
'CCC' based on a '5' recovery rating, up from '6'.  The '5'
recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation for modest recovery
(the lower end of the 10%-30% range) in the event of payment
default.  This rating action stems solely from the application of
S&P's revised recovery criteria and does not reflect any change in
its assessment of the corporate credit ratings for issuers of the
affected debt issues.

At the same time, S&P withdrew its issue ratings on the debt that
was repaid as part of the company's refinancing in November 2016.

In November 2016, S&P Global Ratings said that it lowered its
corporate credit rating on U.S.-based offshore service provider
GulfMark Offshore to 'CC' from 'CCC'.  The rating outlook is
negative.  "The downgrade follows GulfMark Offshore's announcement
that it has offered to purchase up to $300 million of its 6.375%
senior unsecured notes due 2022 at about 48% of par," said S&P
Global Ratings' credit analyst Kevin Kwok.

In February 2016, Moody's Investors Service downgraded GulfMark
Offshore's Corporate Family Rating to 'Caa3' from 'B3', Probability
of Default Rating (PDR) to 'Caa3-PD' from 'B3-PD', and senior
unsecured notes to 'Ca' from

GULFMARK OFFSHORE: Extends Tender Offer Until Dec. 29
-----------------------------------------------------
GulfMark Offshore, Inc., disclosed that it has amended the terms of
its tender offer to purchase for cash up to $300 million in

    to $520 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes; and

  * extended the expiration date of the tender offer from Dec. 21,
    2016, to Dec. 29, 2016, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time.

In addition, the Company and the proposed lenders have agreed to
amend the terms of its previously announced new revolving credit
facility, to increase the size of the New Revolving Credit Facility
from $100 million to $115 million and add a third six month
extension option allowing for maturity to be extended to June 2019.
The New Revolving Credit Facility will be entered into upon
consummation of the Tender Offer.

All other terms of the tender offer, as previously announced,
remain unchanged.  The tender offer is being made upon, and is
subject to, the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to
Purchase, dated Nov. 23, 2016, and the related Letter of
Transmittal.

Holders of Notes that are validly tendered at any time prior to the
Expiration Date, whether before or after the early tender date on
Dec. 7, 2016, and accepted for purchase will receive the Total
Consideration, as increased.  Tendered Notes may no longer be
withdrawn. Holders who have previously tendered (and have not
validly withdrawn) their Notes do not need to re-tender their Notes
or take any other action in order to receive the Total
Consideration of $520 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes.  No
tenders submitted after the Expiration Date will be valid.

According to information provided by D.F. King & Co., Inc., the
information agent and tender agent for the tender offer, as of 5:00
p.m., New York City time, on Dec. 14, 2016, the Company had
received tenders from holders of $136,152,000 in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes, representing approximately 32% of
the total outstanding principal amount of the Notes.

The settlement date for Notes validly tendered prior to the
Expiration Date and accepted for purchase will occur promptly
following the Expiration Date and is expected to be Dec. 30, 2016.
GulfMark will pay accrued and unpaid interest from and including
the last interest payment date for the Notes (Sept. 15, 2016) up
to, but not including, the settlement date for Notes accepted for
purchase.

The tender offer is also conditioned upon the satisfaction or
waiver of the financing condition and certain other conditions set
forth in the Offer to Purchase.  Subject to applicable law,
GulfMark may also terminate the tender offer at any time before the
Expiration Date.

IHEARTCOMMUNICATIONS INC: Decides Not to Repay $57.1-Mil. Notes
---------------------------------------------------------------
iHeartMedia, Inc. announced a decision to not repay the $57.1
million of the 5.50% Senior Notes due Dec. 15, 2016, held by
affiliate Clear Channel Holdings, Inc., when the notes mature on
Dec. 15, 2016.  The decision, made by a Special Committee of
independent directors, is part of the Company's ongoing efforts to
proactively address its capital structure, while maximizing the
value of its assets.

While the $192.9 million of 2016 Legacy Notes held by other holders
will be paid in full at maturity, the $57.1 million balance held by
affiliate CCH will remain outstanding.  Because the 2016 Legacy
Notes owned by CCH will continue to remain outstanding, the Company
will continue to have at least $500 million of legacy notes
outstanding on Dec. 15, 2016, and will therefore not be obligated
to grant certain additional security interests in favor of certain
of its debtholders under a so-called "springing lien" set forth in
relevant debt agreements.

"The ability to refinance the debt will depend on the condition of

IHEARTMEDIA INC: S&P Lowers CCR to 'SD' on Missed Debt Repayment
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it lowered its corporate credit rating
on San Antonio, Texas-based radio broadcaster and outdoor
advertising company iHeartMedia Inc. to 'SD' (selective default)
from 'CCC'.

At the same time, S&P lowered its issue-level rating on the
company's 5.5% senior unsecured notes due Dec. 15, 2016, to 'D'
from 'CC'.  The '6' recovery rating on the debt is unchanged.

"The downgrade follows iHeartMedia's announcement on Dec. 13, 2016,
that it has decided to not repay $57.1 million of
iHeartCommunications Inc.'s 5.5% senior unsecured notes maturing
Dec. 15, 2016," said S&P Global Ratings' credit analyst Jeanne
Shoesmith.  "That portion of the notes is held by Clear Channel
Holdings Inc., a subsidiary of iHeartCommunications.  Despite our
expectation that, for now, Clear Channel will not pursue remedies
related to the nonpayment, we view the nonpayment as a default,
based on our criteria." iHeartMedia is also asserting that the
unpaid portion of the notes will remain outstanding, which would
delay the springing lien that would grant additional security
interests to certain lenders, including iHeartCommunications'
priority guarantee noteholders.

S&P believes the company's decision to not repay a portion of the
notes was strategically taken and doesn't result from insufficient
liquidity.  It appears that the nonpayment is part of
iHeartCommunications' larger plan to restructure its obligations,
likely through a subpar debt exchange, where the company's
debtholders would receive less than the originally promised value.
The company's leverage is extremely high at 9x, and S&P believes
the current capital structure in unsustainable.  S&P expects to
raise its corporate credit rating on iHeartMedia to no higher than
'CCC' in the coming days.  A 'CCC' rating would be based on S&P's

INTERTAIN GROUP: Moody's Affirms B2 Corporate Family Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed The Intertain Group Limited's B2
corporate family rating (CFR), B2-PD probability of default rating,
and SGL-2 speculative grade liquidity rating. Moody's also
downgraded the ratings on the company's first lien revolver and
term loan to B1 from Ba3, assigned B1 ratings to the proposed EUR20
million and GBP53 million first lien term loans, and affirmed the
Caa1 rating on the GBP90 million second lien term loan (downsized
from GBP160 million). The ratings outlook remains stable.

Net proceeds from the first and second lien term loans, together
with a gain from a cross-currency swap, will be used to prepay a
portion of an earn-out (about CAD250 million), with the balance set
aside to be used against future earn-out payments.

"The first lien rating was downgraded because Intertain has changed
its financing mix by decreasing the size of the second lien debt
being issued and increasing first lien debt by the same amount,
thereby reducing the loss absorption cushion provided by the second
lien" said Peter Adu, Moody's analyst.

Ratings Affirmed:

Corporate Family Rating, B2

Probability of Default Rating, B2-PD

GBP90 million second lien term loan (downsized from GBP160 million)
due December 2022, Caa1 (LGD5)

Speculative Grade Liquidity, SGL-2

Ratings Downgraded:

US$17.5 million First Lien Revolver due April 2020, to B1 (LGD3)
from Ba3 (LGD2)

US$278 million First Lien Term Loan B due April 2022, to B1 (LGD3)
from Ba3 (LGD2)

Ratings Assigned:

New EUR20 million first lien term loan due April 2022, B1 (LGD3)

New GBP53 million first lien term loan due April 2022, B1 (LGD3)

Outlook:

Remains Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

Intertain's B2 CFR is primarily driven by its limited operating
track record in the online gaming industry, acquisition growth
orientation, high business risk, small scale and limited product
and geographic diversity (mostly online bingo in the UK). These
factors are mitigated by its moderate leverage (pro forma adjusted
Debt/EBITDA) of 3.3x (4.4x including remaining earn-out payments),
good free cash flow generation, concentration of operations in
regulated markets and good industry growth prospects.

Moody's considers Intertain's liquidity to be good (SGL-2). This is
supported by cash of CAD104 million at Q3/2016 (including CAD37
million reserved for earn-out payments), Moody's expectation of
positive free cash flow of about CAD100 million for the next 4
quarters, full availability under its US$17.5 million revolving
credit facility that matures in April 2020, and about CAD60 million
of proceeds from early termination of a currency swap. These
sources are more than sufficient to cover annual term loan
amortizations of about CAD43 million and CAD153 million of earn-out
payments due in June 2017. Intertain will be subject to a springing
maximum leverage covenant which Moody's does not expect it to be
triggered in the next 4 quarters. Intertain has limited ability to
generate liquidity from asset sales as its assets are encumbered.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Intertain will
use its strong free cash flow to improve its leverage through the
next 12 to 18 months.

The rating could be upgraded if Intertain demonstrates a longer
track record of managing its operations, while sustaining adjusted
Debt/EBITDA below 4x (pro forma 3.3x) and EBIT/Interest above 4x
(pro forma 2.1x). The rating could be downgraded if adjusted
Debt/EBITDA is sustained above 5x and EBIT/Interest below 2x. A
material deterioration in liquidity would also cause a downgrade.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Global Gaming
Industry" published in June 2014. Please see the Rating
Methodologies page on www.moodys.com for a copy of this
methodology.

The Intertain Group Limited, headquartered in Toronto, is an online
gaming holding company that provides bingo, casino and other games
to a global consumer base, with a focus on online UK bingo. Revenue
for the twelve months ended September 30, 2016 was about CAD498
million. The company holds gambling licenses in Malta, Gibraltar,
the UK and Spain.


ISLE OF CAPRI: S&P Lowers Rating on 5.875% Unsec. Notes to BB-
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has reviewed its recovery and
issue-level ratings for Isle of Capri Casinos Inc. that were
labeled as "under criteria observation" (UCO) after publishing its
revised recovery ratings criteria on Dec. 7, 2016.

With S&P's criteria review complete, it is removing the UCO
designation from these ratings and are lowering S&P's issue-level
rating on Isle's 5.875% senior unsecured notes due 2021 to 'BB-',
from 'BB'.  S&P also revised the recovery rating on this debt to
'2' from '1'.

Although S&P's recovery analysis still suggests full recovery on
this debt, its revised criteria includes a new cap on recovery
ratings of '2' for most unsecured debt issued by companies with a
corporate credit rating of 'B+' or lower.  This cap is intended to
capture the still meaningful risk that companies may change their
capital structure prior to default in ways that could impair
unsecured recovery prospects. The '2' recovery rating indicates
S&P's expectation for substantial (70%-90% range) recovery in the
event of payment default. Our valuation at emergence is largely
unchanged.

These ratings actions stem solely from the application of S&P's
revised recovery criteria and do not reflect any change in its
assessment of the corporate credit rating or overall performance of
the company.

Isle's 8.875% subordinated notes remain at 'B' with a recovery
rating of '5', indicating S&P's expectation for modest (10%-30%;
upper half of range) recovery in a simulated payment default
scenario.

LANSING TRADE: S&P Affirms Then Withdraws 'B' CCR
-------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it affirmed its 'B' corporate credit
rating on Overland Park, Kansas-based Lansing Trade Group LLC.  S&P
subsequently withdrew the rating at the company's request.  At the
time of the withdrawal, the outlook was stable.

As of June 30, 2016, Lansing's financial performance was in line
with S&P's expectations.  S&P had lowered the corporate credit
rating on the company to 'B' from 'B+' on Aug. 8, 2016, reflecting
a more aggressive risk profile stemming from losses in its trading
activities.  Besides the proprietary trading business, the
company's core grain segment continues to experience compressed
margins from an oversupplied global agricultural commodities
market.  As a result of the poor grain merchandising market
conditions, Lansing is unable to benefit from its overall earnings
diversity and offset the losses incurred in its proprietary trading
and distiller's dried grains with solubles (DDGS) export
businesses.  Still, S&P expects margins to modestly improve in the
second half of 2016 and into 2017, reflecting better storage
opportunities.

S&P withdrew the rating at the request of the company because the
majority ($114.3 million) of the approximately $144 million
outstanding in senior unsecured 9.25% bonds of Lansing Trade Group
LLC were repurchased on Sept. 30, 2016.

The company funded the tender with a new $500 million credit
facility consisting of a $375 million asset-based revolver and $125
million term loan.  The new facility also replaced its previous
$450 million asset-based revolver and a portion of its term loan.


LENSAR INC: Files Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Petition to Cut Debt
------------------------------------------------------------
LENSAR, Inc., a global leader in next generation femtosecond laser
technology for refractive cataract surgery, on Dec. 19, 2016,
announced the filing of a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition on
December 19, 2016 to reduce its debt, strengthen its balance sheet
and strengthen its platform for future growth.  The filing was made
with support from PDL BioPharma, Inc. (PDL), LENSAR's senior
secured lender.  LENSAR, which acquired the assets of LENSAR, LLC,
anticipates prompt filing of a plan with support from PDL that will
reduce LENSAR's debt, convert a portion of PDL's outstanding debt
into equity, and facilitate PDL's financial support of LENSAR
through this process.

This filing is a financial strategic restructuring of LENSAR.  Its
operations will continue in the ordinary course throughout the
Chapter 11 reorganization process.

With financial support from PDL the Company intends to continue to
pay all employee obligations (including employee wages, provide
health care, and other benefits) and all current operating expenses
without interruption in the ordinary course of business under
normal terms.  LENSAR contemplates the prompt filing of a Chapter
11 plan that will pay all prepetition trade vendors in full.  This
support underscores PDL's commitment to LENSAR and in the LENSAR
Laser System, the only femtosecond laser built specifically for
refractive cataract surgery, and its unique ability to address the
needs of refractive cataract surgeons and patients.

Said LENSAR CEO Nicholas Curtis, "Given the growing aging
population globally, with more than 22 million cataracts treated
annually, I am very optimistic about the future of refractive
cataract surgery and the opportunity to work with PDL.  We expect
to continue changing the paradigm for how surgeons treat cataract
patients and improving visual outcomes, seamlessly incorporating
the preoperative diagnostics into the laser treatment to manage
preexisting and surgically induced astigmatism affecting nearly all
cataract patients."

LENSAR expects the Chapter 11 case to conclude in the second
quarter of 2017.  Thereafter, PDL and LENSAR anticipate that PDL
will provide support to the reorganized, de-leveraged LENSAR, and
that LENSAR will continue to provide the precision and excellence
of the LENSAR Laser System to surgeons and patients worldwide.

Curtis added: "The hard work and dedication of our employees has
enabled us to create a leading femtosecond laser technology
platform for refractive cataract surgery and we are truly grateful
for their commitment and support.  Together, we look forward to
working cooperatively with our vendors, suppliers and partners as
we move quickly through this process."

LSB INDUSTRIES: Jeffrey Gendell Reports 6.8% Stake as of Dec. 5
---------------------------------------------------------------
In a Schedule 13G filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, Jeffrey L. Gendell disclosed that as of Dec. 5, 2016,
he beneficially owns 1,905,354 shares of common stock of LSB
Industries, Inc., representing 6.83 percent of the shares
outstanding.  Also included in the filing are Tontine Asset
Associates, LLC (1,711,272 common shares) and TTR Associates, LLC
(194,082 common shares).  A full-text copy of the regulatory filing
is available for free at https://is.gd/k0Y9BW

                   About LSB Industries, Inc.

LSB Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries are involved in
manufacturing and marketing operations.  The Companies are
primarily engaged in the manufacture and sale of chemical products
and the manufacture and sale of water source and geothermal heat
pumps and air handling products.

LSB reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of
$38.03 million in 2015, net income attributable to common
stockholders of $19.33 million in 2014 and net income attributable
to common stockholders of $54.66 million in 2013.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, LSB had $1.38 billion in total assets,

                         *    *     *

As reported by the TCR on Oct. 17, 2016, S&P Global Ratings lowered
its rating on Oklahoma City-based LSB Industries Inc. to 'CCC' from
'B-'.  "Despite using the climate control business sale proceeds to
repay some debt, the company's metrics have weakened due to plant
operational issues and a depressed pricing environment, which have
led to depressed EBITDA expectations," said S&P Global Ratings
credit analyst Allison Schroeder.

As reported by the TCR on Nov. 21, 2016, Moody's Investors Service
downgraded LSB Industries, Inc.'s corporate family rating (CFR) to
Caa1 from B3, its probability of default rating to Caa1-PD from
B3-PD, and the $375 million guaranteed senior secured notes to Caa1
from B3.  LSB's Caa1 CFR rating reflects Moody's expectations that
the combined uncertainty over operational reliability and the
compressed margins, resulting from the low nitrogen fertilizer
pricing environment, could result in continued weak financial
metrics for a protracted period.


MAMAMANCINI'S HOLDINGS: Posts $80,603 Net Income for Third Quarter
------------------------------------------------------------------
MamaMancini's Holdings, Inc., filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing
net income available to common stockholders of $80,603 on $4.57
million of sales for the three months ended Oct. 31, 2016, compared
to a net loss available to common stockholders of $995,522 on $3.23
million of sales for the three months ended
Oct. 31, 2015.

For the nine months ended Oct. 31, 2016, the Company reported a net
loss available to common stockholders of $580,435 on $12.63 million
of sales compared to a net loss available to common stockholders of
$3.10 million on $9.33 million of sales for the same period during
the prior year.

As of Oct. 31, 2016, MamaMancini's Holdings had $6.34 million in
total assets, $5.58 million in total liabilities and $763,541 in
total stockholders' equity.

As of Oct. 31, 2016, the Company had a working capital of
$1,857,956 as compared to a working capital deficiency of $(34,365)
as of Jan. 31, 2016, an increase of $1,892,321.  The increase in
working capital is primarily attributable to increases in cash,
accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, inventories and decreases in
accounts payable and accrued expenses, promissory notes and related
party notes all of which were offset by decreases in due from
manufacturer and increases in term loan and note payable.  In
addition, the line of credit was amended in September 2016 and
consequently reclassified to long-term on the condensed
consolidated balance sheets.

"The Company may require additional funding to finance the growth
of its current and expected future operations as well as to achieve
its strategic objectives.  There can be no assurance that financing
will be available in amounts or terms acceptable to the Company, if
at all.  In that event, the Company would be required to change its
growth strategy and seek funding on that basis, though there is no
guarantee it will be able to do so," the Company stated in the
filing.

MamaMancini's Holdings, Inc., manufactures and distributes
prepared, frozen, and refrigerated food products primarily in the
United States.

MamaMancini's Holdings, Inc., formerly Mascot Properties, Inc.,
was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 22, 2009.  Mascot
Properties, Inc.'s activities since its inception consisted of
trying to locate real estate properties to manage, primarily
related to student housing, and services which included general
property management, maintenance and activities coordination for
residents.  Mascot did not have any significant development of such
business and did not derive any revenue.  Due to the lack of
results in its attempt to implement its original business plan,
management determined it was in the best interests of the
shareholders to look for other potential business opportunities.

MamaMancini's reported a net loss of $3.51 million for the year
ended Jan. 31, 2016, compared to a net loss of $4.06 million for
the year ended Jan. 31, 2015.

Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman & Company, in Somerset, New Jersey,
issued a "going concern" qualification on the consolidated
financial statements for the year ended Jan. 31, 2016, citing that
the Company has incurred losses for the years ended January 31,
2016 and 2015 and has a working capital deficit as of January 31,
2016.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.


MARK GARCIA: Court Grants Over $25K Atty's Fees, Expenses to YP
---------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Ronald H. Sargis of the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the Eastern District of California granted the motion filed by YP
Advertising & Publishing LLC for allowance of an administrative
expense for the legal fees and expenses incurred in making a
substantial contribution to the Chapter 11 case of Mark Anthony
Garcia and Angela Marie Garcia.

YP is a Delaware limited liability company, formerly known as YP
Western Directory, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company,
formerly known as Pacific Bell Directory, a California corporation,
that has been identified as the Chapter 11 Plan Proponent in the
bankruptcy case.  For all relevant periods of time YP has been
represented by Coleman & Horowitt, LLP.  The time period for which
the fees are requested is October 24, 2014, through July 29, 2016.
YP requested the administrative expense for $45,805.00 in fees and
costs in the amount of $1,280.39, for a total of $47,085.39.

Judge Sargis granted the motion, allowing $25,375.00 in legal fees
and $1,061.19 in costs relating thereto.  Requests for amounts in
excess thereof were denied.

Judge Sargis was convinced that YP's counsel, given her good nature
and lack of bankruptcy law experience (though not inexperienced as
a lawyer), was actively taken advantage of by the debtor and the
debtor's counsel, and at least passively by the Chapter 11 trustee
and the trustee's counsel.

Recently, the court was presented with a declaration under penalty
of perjury signed by debtor Mark Garcia, the plan administrator
under the confirmed Chapter 11 Plan.  Mr. Garcia was testifying
under penalty of perjury as to facts in support of a motion to sell
property under the plan to an "unrelated" third-party.  The
declaration that was prepared by the debtor's counsel, who is now
serving as the attorney for the debtor serving in the capacity of
plan administrator, contained false information (inaccurately
stating that debtor had no interest in the "unrelated" third-party
purchaser limited liability company, an entity for which debtor
Mark Garcia is actually a managing member).  The court did not find
persuasive debtor Mark Garcia's and debtor's counsel's arguments
that Mr. Garcia just did not read the declaration before signing it
and the court should overlook the false statement.  This
misstatement exemplifies the conduct of the debtor in the case, all
the while represented by the same debtor's counsel.

The amount of attorneys' fees allowed to YP for the work of YP's
counsel is greater than stated in the tentative ruling before the
court took the matter under submission.  Though the court's
discussion in the findings of fact regarding YP's counsel are
pointed, the real blame for the non-productive legal services rests
at the feet of the debtor, the debtor's counsel, the Chapter 11
trustee, and the trustee counsel.  Upon further review of the
facts, and conduct of the other parties and attorneys, Judge Sargis
concluded that a higher amount of reasonable attorneys' fees than
stated in the tentative ruling are appropriate for YP's counsel --
one attorney in the case who attempted to do her job in the case
consistent with her obligations in federal court.

MCELRATH LEGAL: Exclusive Plan Filing Period Extended to Mar. 20
----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Carlota M. Bohm of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of Pennsylvania extended McElrath Legal Holdings, LLC's
exclusive period to file a plan to March 20, 2017.

The Debtor previously sought the extension of its exclusive plan
filing period, contending that an extension of the exclusivity
period will provide the Debtor with the appropriate and necessary
time to prepare accurate financial projections, a six month
operating history needed for a disclosure statement, and a plan
which will be feasible.

Paul W. McElarth, Jr., the president of the Debtor, contended that
a six month period which includes both a low and normal number of
chapter 7 and chapter 13 filings by his firm would be an accurate
basis from which to project annual revenue and expenses and that
the months of August, September, October, November, and December,
2016, and January, 2017, would be a representative sampling.

The Debtor related that the net income trend shown by its filed
monthly operating reports for July (partial month), August,
September, and October, 2016 was promising.  The Debtor further
related that the revenue and expenses of months of August,
September, and October needed to be averaged with the months of
November and December, 2016, and January, 2017, to create a
reliable six month statistical sampling, to provide adequate
information for a disclosure statement and evidentiary support that
the Debtor's plan is feasible.

The Debtor told the Court that the November and December, 2016, and
January, 2017, monthly operating reports would be filed timely.
The Debtor further told the Court that its counsel would need about
30 days after the filing of January 2017 report to prepare accurate
income and expense projections, a disclosure statement, and a plan,
so that the January, 2017 report would be due February 20, 2017.

MOBILE FOX: Wants April 9 Exclusive Plan Filing Period Extension
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Mobile Fox, Inc. asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle
District of Florida to extend its exclusive period for filing a
plan to April 9, 2017.

The Debtor's exclusive period for filing a plan currently expires
on January 9, 2017.

The Debtor tells the Court that its business is largely seasonal,
with sales peaking during the holiday season between November and
the end of January.  The Debtor believes that the requested
extension is in the best interest of both the estate and creditors
of the estate as it will extend the Debtor's Exclusivity Periods
past the holiday season and allow the Debtor to compile the
appropriate monthly operating reports to more accurately show
feasibility before proposing its plan and issuing its disclosure
statement.

of US$2.36 million on US$551,494 of net sales for the three months
ended Oct. 31, 2016, compared to a net loss of US$3.53 million on
US$317,748 of net sales for the three months ended Oct. 31, 2015.

For the nine months ended Oct. 31, 2016, the Company reported a net
loss of US$8.20 million on US$1.29 million of net sales compared to
a net loss of US$8.48 million on US$938,157 of net sales for the
same period a year ago.

As of Oct. 31, 2016, Naked Brand had US$2.46 million in total
assets, US$2.04 million in total liabilities and US$420,941 in
total stockholders' equity.

As of Oct. 31, 2016, the Company had cash totaling $44,365.  The
Company believes it does not have sufficient cash resources to fund
its operations through the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017.

In accordance with the collaboration and endorsement agreement with
Dwayne Wade, the Company is required to make quarterly payments for
royalty fees based on the greater of a pre-determined percentage of
certain sales, or a minimum annual amount.  During the nine months
ended Oct. 31, 2016, the Company did not make all minimum royalty
payments as they became due under the terms of the agreement, and
consequently has not fulfilled its obligations under the agreement.
Accordingly, the other party to the agreement has the right to
cause the agreement to enter into default.  If the other party
provides such notice of default, this could affect the Company's
ability to sell certain portions of its Wade X Naked inventory on
hand and on order at Oct. 31, 2016.  As at Oct. 31, 2016, the
Company has not been provided a notice of default by the other
party to the agreement, and is currently negotiating settlement of
amounts currently due under the agreement.  No provision for any
losses that might be incurred in the event of a notice of default
has been provided in the accompanying financial statements.

The Company's common stock is listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market
under the symbol NAKD.  On Sept. 23, 2016, the Company received
written notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The NASDAQ
Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it no longer complies
with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) due to the Company's failure to
maintain a minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders' equity or any
alternatives to such requirement as of July 31, 2016, and as of
Sept. 22, 2016.  In response, the Company submitted a compliance
plan to NASDAQ.  The Company is working with NASDAQ to finalize
such plan and undertake steps to regain compliance.  If NASDAQ
accepts the Company's plan, NASDAQ may grant an extension of up to
180 calendar days from the date of the notice, or until March 22,
2017, to evidence compliance with the Minimum Stockholders' Equity
Requirement.  If NASDAQ does not accept the Company's plan, the
Company will have the right to appeal such decision to a NASDAQ
hearings panel.

"Management intends to continue to raise funds from equity and debt
financings to fund our operations and objectives.  However, we
cannot be certain that financing will be available on acceptable
terms or available at all.  To the extent that we raise additional
funds by issuing debt or equity securities or through bank
financing, our existing stockholders may experience significant
dilution.  If we are unable to raise funds when required or on
acceptable terms, we may have to significantly scale back, or
discontinue, our operations," the Company stated in the quarterly
report.

NAS HOLDINGS: Court Allows Cash Collateral Use on Final Basis
-------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Catherine R. Aron of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle
District of North Carolina authorized NAS Holdings, Inc., to use
cash collateral on a final basis.

Branch Banking & Trust, or BB&T, is the only secured creditor of
the Debtor.  BB&T holds two secured liens against restaurant
equipment and fixtures of the Debtor.  The monthly payments for the
two loans are $7,269 and $3,730, respectively.

The Debtor is authorized to use cash collateral for its ordinary
and reasonable operating expenses, which will include payment of
reasonable and necessary operating expenses in line with the
approved Budget.

The approved Budget projected total expenses in the amount of
$24,325 for the month of December 2016.

BB&T is authorized to retain its liens on all prepetition
collateral and was granted replacement liens upon all collateral of
the type and kind upon which it has prepetition liens, to the same
extent, priority, and validity as it had on the Petition Date.
BB&T was also granted an allowed super-priority administrative
expense claim to the extent of any diminution in value of BB&T's
interests in prepetition collateral caused solely by the use of
cash collateral.

The Debtor is directed to make regular monthly payments to BB&T as
they come due, and continuously maintain an insurance policy on the
restaurant equipment and fixtures.

NEIMAN MARCUS: Bank Debt Trades at 9.82% Off
--------------------------------------------
Participations in a syndicated loan under Neiman Marcus Group Inc
is a borrower traded in the secondary market at 90.18
cents-on-the-dollar during the week ended Friday, December 9, 2016,
according to data compiled by LSTA/Thomson Reuters MTM Pricing.
This represents a decrease of 0.44 percentage points from the
previous week.  Neiman Marcus Group Inc pays 300 basis points above
LIBOR to borrow under the $2.9 billion facility. The bank loan
matures on Oct. 16, 2020 and carries Moody's B2 rating and Standard
& Poor's B- rating.  The loan is one of the biggest gainers and
losers among 247 widely quoted syndicated loans with five or more
bids in secondary trading for the week ended December 9.


NEUSTAR INC: S&P Lowers CCR to 'B+' on Acquisition Agreement
------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on Sterling,
Va.-based Neustar Inc. to 'B+' from 'BB-'.

At the same time, S&P lowered its issue-level ratings on the senior
secured term loan and revolver to 'BB' from 'BB+'.  The recovery
rating on this debt remains '1', indicating S&P's expectation for
very high (90%-100%) recovery in the event of a payment default.
S&P also lowered its issue-level ratings on the company's unsecured
notes to 'B' from 'B+'.  The recovery ratings remain '5',
indicating S&P's expectation for modest (lower end of the 10%-30%
range) recovery in a payment default.  The company has indicated
that it expects this debt to be repaid when the transaction
closes.

All of S&P's ratings on Neustar remain on CreditWatch where S&P
placed them with negative implications on June 21, 2016.  S&P could
lower or affirm the ratings following the completion of its
review.

"The downgrade follows Neustar's announcement that it has signed an
agreement to be acquired by Golden Gate Capital for about $2.9
billion, including about $1 billion of Neustar outstanding debt,"
said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Scott Tan.

S&P believes that pro forma debt to EBITDA, including the impact of
the loss of the Number Portability Administration Center (NPAC)
contract in 2018, could rise above 6x , depending on EBITDA growth,
free operating cash flow generation, and debt repayment over the
next couple of years.  If the transaction is completed, S&P
believes the company's financial policy will be more aggressive
given that it will be owned by a private equity owner and that
leverage will remain elevated longer term.

S&P will resolve the CreditWatch when more information regarding
the transaction and financing becomes available.  S&P will also
assess the company's business strategy in light of Neustar's
decision to abandon the previous proposal to split the company as
well as its longer-term financial policy.  S&P believes that a
downgrade, if any, is likely to be one notch, depending on pro
forma leverage and cash flow generation.



NORTH FORK COMPOSITES: Hires Scout & Spur as Sales Advisor

North Fork Composites LLC, seeks authority from the U.S. Bankruptcy

NORTHERN BLIZZARD: Moody's Lowers Corporate Family Rating to B3
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded Northern Blizzard Resources
Inc.'s Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to B3 from B2, the Probability
of Default Rating to B3-PD from B2-PD and the senior unsecured
notes rating to Caa1 from B3. The Speculative Grade Liquidity
Rating was raised to SGL-2 from SGL-3. Moody's also changed the
outlook to stable from negative.

"The downgrade of Northern Blizzard reflects the CAD75 million
share repurchase program that will be funded with a combination of
asset sales and cash that will decrease the company's already small
production base," said Paresh Chari, Moody's Assistant Vice
President. "As well, the increase in cash dividends will weaken the
company's retained cash flow to debt metric in 2017."

Northern Blizzard Resources Inc.

Downgrades:

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

   -- Corporate Family Rating, Downgraded to B3 from B2

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Downgraded to
      Caa1(LGD5) from B3(LGD5)

Upgrades:

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

Outlook Actions:

   -- Outlook, Changed To Stable From Negative

RATINGS RATIONALE

Northern Blizzard's B3 Corporate Family Rating (CFR) reflects
Northern Blizzard's small size, expected production decline in 2017
due to the asset dispositions in Q4 2016, increased cash dividend
that weakens retained cash flow to debt, and the CAD75 million
share repurchase in Q1 2017 funded with a combination of the asset
dispositions and cash. The concentration in heavy oil, that comes
from mature fields in western Saskatchewan that mostly require
enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in order to increase production,
exposes the company to volatile light/heavy oil differentials. The
EOR developments include water flooding, polymer flooding and
thermal projects that require a significant amount of development
capital and entail higher operating expenses than conventional
primary production. These high operating costs are somewhat offset
by a low corporate decline rate of around 15%. The rating also
reflects solid leverage (debt to EBITDA of about 3x; retained cash
flow/debt of about 18%), good liquidity and the expectation of
break-even free cash flow in 2017.

Northern Blizzard's SGL-2 rating reflects good liquidity through
2017. As of September 30, 2016 and pro-forma for the recently
announced asset sales, Northern Blizzard had about CAD115 million
cash, although the CAD75 million share repurchase program will
decrease cash to CAD40 million and we expect break-even free cash
flow in 2017. The company also has full availability under its
CAD285 million borrowing base revolving credit facility, which will
term out in July 2017 and mature one year later. We expect Northern
Blizzard will be well within compliance with its two financial
covenants over the next year. There are no other debt maturities in
the next two years. Alternate liquidity is limited given that
substantially all of the company's assets are pledged under the
revolver.

In accordance with Moody's Loss Given Default (LGD) Methodology,
the senior unsecured notes are rated Caa1, one notch below the CFR,
reflecting the priority ranking of the CAD285 million borrowing
base revolving credit facility in the capital structure.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Northern
Blizzard will maintain solid credit metrics and good liquidity in
2017.

The ratings could be upgraded if Northern Blizzard can grow its
production above 20,000 boe/d, while maintaining retained cash flow
to debt above 25% (23% at September 30, 2016) and an LFCR above 1x
(0.5x September 30, 2016).

The ratings could be downgraded if retained cash flow to debt was
likely to fall well below 10%, EBITDA to interest was likely to
decline below 2x or if liquidity worsened.

Northern Blizzard is a Calgary, Alberta-based exploration and
production company that produces roughly 16,000 boe/day (net of
royalties) of which about 95% is heavy oil from mature fields in
western Saskatchewan.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Global
Independent Exploration and Production Industry" published in
December 2011.

                     About Pacific Drilling

Based in Luxembourg, Pacific Drilling S.A. (NYSE:PACD) is an
international offshore drilling contractor.  The Company's primary
business is to contract its high-specification rigs, related
equipment and work crews, primarily on a day rate basis, to drill
wells for its clients.  The Company's contract drillships operate
in the deepwater regions of the United States, Gulf of Mexico and
Nigeria.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Pacific Drilling had $5.89 billion in total
assets, $3.19 billion in total liabilities and $2.70 billion in
total shareholders' equity.

Pacific Drilling reported net income of $126.2 million in 2015,

million in 2013.

                         *     *     *

In October 2016, Moody's Investors Service downgraded Pacific
Drilling's Corporate Family Rating to 'Caa3' from 'Caa2' and
Probability of Default Rating (PDR) to 'Caa3-PD' from 'Caa2-PD'.
"PacDrilling's ratings downgrade reflects our extremely negative
view of the offshore drilling sector with no near term signs of
improvement.  Depressed prices for the offshore drillships offers
weak asset coverage for PacDrilling's overall debt.  With no
material signs of improving contract coverage or utilization for
PacDrilling's drillships, cashflow through 2017 will be severely
impacted resulting in an unsustainable capital structure," said
Sreedhar Kona, Moody's senior analyst.

In November 2016, S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit
rating on Pacific Drilling S.A. to 'CCC-' from 'CCC+'.  "The
downgrade reflects our expectation of limited activity in
deep-water offshore drilling due to continued low oil prices, and
the negative impact on Pacific Drilling's expected cash flows to
support high debt levels and upcoming maturities," said S&P Global
Ratings credit analyst Michael Tsai.

and natural gas reserves in East Texas, Oklahoma, South Louisiana
and the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico.  PetroQuest's common
stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker PQ.

In its quarterly report for the period ending June 30, 2016, the
Company stated, "Our substantially decreased level of capital
spending has had and is expected to continue to have a negative
impact on our production and cash flow from operating activities.
We expect production to continue to decline throughout 2016 and
when combined with current commodity prices and our existing cost
structure, including 10% interest expense on the $280 million of
debt represented by our 2017 Notes and 2021 Notes, we believe that
we will continue to incur significant losses and negative cash flow
from operating activities for the remainder of 2016.  In addition,
$136 million of the indebtedness represented by our 2017 Notes will
mature on September 1, 2017 and would be reflected as a current
liability on our September 30, 2016 balance sheet if not refinanced
prior to the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarterly period ended September 30, 2016, which would raise
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern," the Company stated in its quarterly report for the period
ended June 30, 2016.

"We are evaluating additional sources of liquidity including asset
sales, joint ventures, exchange offers and alternative financing
arrangements to replace the Credit Agreement, but there is no
assurance that these sources will provide sufficient, if any,
incremental liquidity.  We are also evaluating various options to
address the September 2017 maturity of our 2017 Notes as well as
assessing our overall capital structure.  These options include
additional public or private exchanges of 2017 Notes for new
secured debt and/or common stock, refinancing the 2017 Notes with
unsecured debt and/or common stock as well as a broader
restructuring of our 2017 and 2021 Notes.  To assist the Board of
Directors and management team in evaluating these options, we have
retained Jefferies LLC and Seaport Global as our financial advisors
and Porter Hedges LLP as our legal advisor.  There is no assurance
that any refinancing or debt or equity restructuring will be
possible or that additional equity or debt financing can be
obtained on acceptable terms, if at all.  If we are unable to
improve our liquidity position, and refinance or restructure our
debt, we may seek bankruptcy protection to continue our efforts to
restructure our business and capital structure.  As a part of that
process, we may have to liquidate our assets and may receive less
than the value at which those assets are carried on our
consolidated financial statements."

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Petroquest had $174.4 million in total
assets, $411.2 million in total liabilities and a total
stockholders' deficit of $236.8 million.

                       *     *     *

PetroQuest Energy carries a 'Caa3' corporate family rating from
Moody's Investors Service.

In October 2016, S&P Global Ratings raised the corporate credit
rating on PetroQuest Energy Inc. to 'CCC' from 'SD'.  "The upgrade
reflects our reassessment of the company's corporate credit rating
following the exchange of the majority of its outstanding 10%
senior unsecured notes due September 2017 at par," said S&P Global
Ratings credit analyst Daniel Krauss.  The negative outlook
reflects the company's current debt leverage levels, which S&P
views to be unsustainable, as well as its less than adequate
liquidity position.

PHILADELPHIA PERFORMING: S&P Raises Rating on 2013 Bonds to 'BB'
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings raised its rating to 'BB' from 'BB-' on
Philadelphia Authority for Industrial Development's series 2013
revenue bonds, issued for Philadelphia Performing Arts Charter
School (PPACS).  The outlook is stable

"The raised rating reflects our view of the school's robust demand,
steady liquidity, positive operating margins, moderating debt
burden, and improved maximum annual debt service coverage," said
S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Robert Tu.  "However, while
certain financial metrics are solid for the rating level and
supportive of upward rating potential, the rating is currently
constrained by the volatile funding environment affecting all
Philadelphia charter schools," Mr. Tu added.

PPACS serves students from a variety of neighborhoods throughout
Philadelphia where it began operations in 2000.  The school
specializes in the performing arts with dance, instrumental, and
vocal music lessons.  Science and language arts are also emphasized
as critical components of the curriculum.  It has had its charter
renewed three times: It's most recent renewal was in 2014, and the
charter extends through 2019.  Currently, the school serves close
to 2,552 students in kindergarten through 12th grade (K-12).

QUEST SOLUTION: Expects Modest Growth in Revenue in 2017
--------------------------------------------------------
Quest Solution, Inc., announced that Tom Miller, interim chief
executive officer, issued a letter to shareholders.  The text of
the letter is below:

On December 6th, the Company announced that we concluded the
transaction to spin off Quest Solution Canada Inc. to Viascan Group
Inc. with an effective date of September 30th, 2016 bringing the
Company full circle on an acquisition made in October 2015.  With
the transaction, the fully diluted number of shares was reduced by
7,039,030 with other consideration being the assumption of Canadian
liabilities by Viascan, receipt of cash, cancellation of Canadian
employment contracts and a right for Quest to receive 15% of net
proceeds, up to $2.3 million, should there be a change of control
of QSC in the future.

Canadian Acquisition Challenges

When the Canadian operations were acquired in October of 2015, the
expectation was to provide additional revenue to Quest, as well as
have a favorable impact on gross margins, expand cross border
account opportunities, increase purchasing power leverage, and
expand Quest's bar code label and media business by taking
advantage of the Canadian production facilities.  However, the
merits of the acquisition were not realized due to a lack of
working capital to adequately grow and sustain the label business,
the complexity and costs associated with integrating the Canadian
operation within Quest, a Canadian economy downturn and a slower
than planned realization of synergies.

Unwinding Quest Solution Canada (QSC) And Resultant Benefits

The resulting losses and negative cash flow from QSC was requiring
a transfer of working capital from the U.S. operations to Canada
which was not sustainable going forward given the U.S. cash
requirements for its business.  After looking at multiple options
the decision was made to sell the Canadian business back to Viascan
as being in the best interest to all stakeholders.  It allows for
the simplification of the operations and reduces cost. It also
frees up the investment which had been going into the Canadian
business to be used to accelerate debt reduction of Quest leading
to future flexibility for financial alternatives.  It refocuses the
Company and management attention on Quest's strengths in mobile
computing and data collection where the Company is a leader in the
U.S. market.  Management believes that Viascan will benefit from
the transaction and will now have greater flexibility to refocus on
its core business.  Quest retains an interest in QSC's future
success as we will be able to receive a percentage of proceeds upon
a change of control of QSC.

The Road to Success

Quest Solution, Inc. has been successful by integrating mission
critical mobile computing and data collection solutions for over
two decades for Fortune 1000 companies.  The requirements and needs
of our customers continue to evolve as they require new mobile and
wireless technologies and services to make their business more
competitive and profitable.  The result is a continuous flow of
opportunities for Quest to assist customers to evaluate, choose,
implement, and support the right mobile and data collection
solutions.  As we focus on what we do best there is more than
adequate market size, growth, and opportunity available to the
Company to succeed.

Market

The Automated Data Collection and Mobile Computing market is well
established and is a multi-billion-dollar market.  Businesses
around the world use mobile computers, bar code scanners, bar code
and mobile printers, RFID, and wireless and voice technologies
daily to continuously improve their supply chain and customer
service.  Quest is a vital partner to leading companies in Retail,
Warehousing, Manufacturing, Healthcare and Transportation and
Logistics ensuring - the right technologies, products, and services
are being implemented to generate the appropriate Return on
Investment.

Industry Outlook

The Company believes the industry outlook for Quest products and
services is strong heading into 2017.  We anticipate favorable
increases in capital investments within the industries we serve.
Consumers today are informed and impatient and want product
availability when they want it, where they want it and at the best
price.  In response Retailer's and in turn their entire Supply
Chain are implementing new mobile and data collection technologies
to be competitive and stay in front of customer requirements.  This
is the impetus behind a strong refresh and replacement cycle of
legacy mobile technology platforms that can no longer deliver on
what is needed to run the business.  All of this points to a good
year for our industry in 2017.

Business Model

Quest succeeds because companies rely on our nationwide field sales
and field system organization to bring solutions and services that
address critical application requirements within their
organization.  We put our resources close to our customers and by
working with them we find new opportunities leading to new areas of
sales growth within our account base.  Quest provides high added
value to companies because we design, find and implement the right
solution from one of our many vendors that best fits the
application requirements. Our field organization is backed up with
centralized sales administration and technical services and for
some of our larger customers we have online portals to make it more
convenient for ordering.  In 2017 we will selectively expand our
sales coverage in areas where we are underserved today.  We will
expand the use of web based customer portals and establish an
on-line platform for ordering of less complex products.

2017 Focused Objectives

Our objectives in 2017 are focusing on operational excellence and
cost reduction, addressing the balance sheet debt load and putting
together a business plan that does not require high revenue
growth.

As we look ahead to 2017 we expect modest growth in revenue with a
target of $62M - $65M.  We expect continued downward pressure on
hardware margins offset somewhat by growth in services for overall
gross margin of 19% to 22%.  We will continue our initiative of
reducing recurring operating expenses to a target of 14% to 16% of
net sales and an adjusted EBITDA target of 4% to 6% of net sales.
This plan is a remarkable turnaround from what occurred in 2016, is
realistic and puts the Company on a trend for greater success in
the future.

Debt Reduction - Plan To Accelerate

There is a need for the Company to improve the balance sheet.  In
the second half of 2016 we reduced the supplier note payable by
$3.6 million or 27%.  With the divestiture of QSC, we plan to
further accelerate payments in 2017 to reduce the supplier note by
approximately $5 million.  We are looking at other initiatives we
can take during 2017 to further strengthen the balance sheet.

Management Actions Demonstrates Business Confidence

In June 2016, management converted approximately $4.5M of
management debt to Series C Preferred Shares at a conversion rate
of one share for each $1.00 of principal and accrued but unpaid
interest due on the debt, which was significantly above the market
price of our common stock.  In the 4th quarter, to facilitate the
QSC divestiture, management pledged personal assets as collateral
to backstop the supplier note payable from a partner (Details are
in our Form 8-K,
http://www.otcmarkets.com/edgar/GetFilingHtml?FilingID=11723920)

Summary

We fully understand the disappointment from the shareholders over
2016 results.  We believe however with the steps being taken that
Quest will be restored to performance levels that will increase
interest in the Company.  By going "back to the future" it best
positions the Company for success.

Thank you for your continued support,
Tom Miller

QUICK CHANGE: No Distribution for Unsecureds Under Amended Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
Quick Change Artist, LLC, filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of Florida its second amended disclosure
statement and accompanying second amended plan of reorganization,
dated Dec. 9, 2016.

Class I, Allowed Secured Claim of Gulf Coast Bank and Trust Co.,
assignee of Bank of America, N.A., is Impaired under the Plan.
Claim will be treated as partially secured.  Gulf Coast's Allowed
Secured Claim is $190,000.  Any stripped portion of the claim will
be treated as an Allowed General Unsecured claim under Class II of
the plan.

The Debtor has been making monthly adequate protection payments of
$1,145 since Nov. 15. 2015, and will continue to pay adequate
protection to Gulf Coast through confirmation of the Plan.  All
adequate protection payments will be applied per the loan
documents, at the creditor's discretion.

Confirmation of the Debtor's Plan will immediately entitle Gulf
Coast to turn-over of Gulf Coast's collateral, and the proceeds of
the sale of the collateral except as otherwise provided in the
Plan, without need for further order from the Court.  The Debtor
agrees to cooperate with Gulf Coast in disposing of the
collateral.

The Creditor is not entitled to post-petition attorney's fees or
interest.

Class II, Impaired under the Plan, consists of all Allowed General
Unsecured Claims, totaling approximately $1,815,597.  Claimholders
with Allowed General Unsecured Claims will receive no distribution
under the Debtor's Plan.

Payments and distributions under the Plan will be funded by
revenues generated from the Debtor's liquidation of inventory, that
will occur throughout the confirmation process, and from funds held
in counsel's trust account in the amount of $28,254 recovered from
a preference action.

RALSTON, NE: S&P Affirms 'BB' Rating on 2011/2012 Arena Bonds
-------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB' underlying rating (SPUR) on
Ralston, Neb.'s series 2011A, 2011B, 2012A, and 2012B general
obligation (GO) arena bonds and removed the rating from CreditWatch
with negative implications, where it was placed on Sept. 20, 2016.
The outlook is stable.

S&P removed the rating from CreditWatch because S&P was provided
with sufficient information to maintain our ratings on the
securities in accordance with S&P's applicable criteria and
policies.

"The rating action taken in September 2016 reflects our view of the
city's ongoing structural imbalance that is likely to persist and
reflects a materially weaker financial position stemming from its
underperforming arena.  It also reflects the need to cash-flow
borrow to cover arena expenditures and without it, the city's
short-term financial and liquidity position would be worse.  The
city's liquidity is very weak, coupled with what we view as weak
management conditions.  Furthermore, Ralston is overleveraged,
reflected in a high overall debt burden as a percentage of market
value.  The city's high debt burden will likely continue to
pressure its finances and taxing flexibility.  Should the fiscal
2016 audit show persistent financial deterioration, compounded with
the budgetary stress caused by the arena and the city's impaired
overall liquidity position with potentially reduced market access,
there could be additional downgrades," S&P said.


RELATIVITY FASHION: Objections to Investment Bankers' Fees Denied
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Michael E. Wiles of the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York denied the objections to the
final fee applications of PJT Partners LP (formerly Blackstone
Advisory Partners L.P.) and Houlihan Lokey Capital, Inc. --
investment banking firms that were retained in the Chapter 11 cases
of Relativity Fashion, LLC, and its debtor affiliates.

In its final application, PJT sought approval of compensation that
included a transaction fee of $4.5 million.  This amount represents
an agreed-upon reduction from the $5 million transaction fee that
was set forth in the retention agreement.  Objections to the PJT
application were filed by the fee examiner, Robert Keach, and by
Relativity Secured Lender, LLC.  Keach and RSL objected to the
transaction fee sought by PJT.

Houlihan sought compensation that included a transaction fee of $5
million.  Keach and RSL, joined by a debtor, Relativity Fashion,
LLC, also objected to the transaction fee.

Keach and RSL (and in the case of Houlihan, Relativity Fashion)
contended:

     -- That PJT did not fulfill the contractual conditions to    

        the payment of the transaction fee that it seeks;

     -- That the Court should review the PJT and Houlihan
        applications for reasonableness using the standards set
        forth in Section 330 of the Bankruptcy Code and not using
        the standard of review that would apply under Section
        328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code;

     -- That the applications do not satisfy the Section 330
        criteria and requirements with respect to the proposed
        transaction fees; and

     -- That the transaction fees should be denied in their        

        entirety.

No other party, including the the United States Trustee and the
Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, objected to the
applications.

Judge Wiles explained that "it is common that an investment banker
retention includes a provision for payment of monthly fees as well
as transaction fees.  Investment bankers' main compensation is
through transaction fees.  Those fees usually are contingent on the
consummation of a transaction so that they are not paid if a
transaction does not occur.  But apart from that condition, they
often have no other requirements.  They often merely require that
the transaction occur with no other conditions whatsoever."

Judge Wiles also added that "[t]he transaction fee is not a bonus,
and there is no reason why allowance of the transaction fee should
be subject to the same standards as a request for payment of a
bonus."

Judge Wiles noted that, as to PJT, Paragraphs 2 and 6 of the
retention order, entered on September 21, 2015, made clear that the
retention of PJT was approved under Section 328(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code.  However, the judge pointed out that the PJT
retention order also said that the United States Trustee retained
all rights to respond or object to interim and final applications
on all grounds, including reasonableness pursuant to Section 330 of
the Bankruptcy Code, and that the Court retained jurisdiction to
consider any such objections by the United States Trustee on
Section 330 grounds.

Judge Wiles also pointed out that the Houlihan retention order
similarly provides for retention under Section 328(a), and it has
the same Blackstone Protocol language.  In that case, however, the
Section 330 rights were reserved not only for the United States
Trustee, but also for the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors.

Judge Wiles thus found that the fee examiner, RSL and Relativity
Fashion did not have rights to object pursuant to Section 330
standards, but were confined to the standard of review under
Section 328(a).

The parties have agreed that there is no issue as to the Houlihan
application if the Section 328(a) standard applies.  In the case of
PJT, the judge found that if Section 328 applies, the evidence
clearly showed that PJT has satisfied the terms of its engagement
letter, and that it is entitled to the fee that it negotiated,
subject to the reduction to which it has already agreed.

RXI PHARMACEUTICALS: Amends 1.3M Class A Units Prospectus with SEC
------------------------------------------------------------------
RXi Pharmaceuticals Corporation filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission an amended Form S-1 registration statement
relating to the offering 1,348,300 Class A Units, with each Class A
Unit consisting of one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per
share, and a warrant to purchase one share of the Company's common
stock (based on an assumed offering price per common share of
$1.78, which was the last reported sale price of the Company's
common stock on Dec. 9, 2016, which assumption is used throughout
this preliminary prospectus) at a public offering price of $___    
   per Class A Unit.  Each warrant included in the Class A Units
entitles its holder to purchase one share of common stock at an
exercise price per share of $_____.

The Company is also offering to those purchasers, whose purchase of
Class A Units in this offering would result in the purchaser,
together with its affiliates and certain related parties,
beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Company's outstanding
common stock following the consummation of this offering, the
opportunity to purchase, in lieu of the number of Class A Units
that would result in ownership in excess of 4.99%, 9,600 Class B
Units.  Each Class B Unit will consist of warrants to purchase 561
shares of our common stock and one share of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, convertible into 561
shares of common stock (based on an assumed offering price per
common share of $1.78, which was the last reported sale price of
the Company's common stock on Dec. 9, 2016, which assumption is
used throughout this preliminary prospectus) at a public offering
price of $1,000 per Class B Unit.  Each Class B Unit includes
warrants entitling its holder to purchase a number of shares of
common stock equal to 100% of the number of shares of common stock
issuable upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock included in such units at an exercise price per share of
$____.

The Class A Units and Class B Units have no stand-alone rights and
will not be certificated or issued as stand-alone securities.  The
shares of common stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and
warrants comprising those units are immediately separable and will
be issued separately in this offering.  The underwriters have the
option to purchase additional shares of common stock, and/or
warrants to purchase shares of common stock solely to cover
over-allotments, if any, at the price to the public less the
underwriting discounts and commissions.  The over-allotment option
may be used to purchase shares of common stock, or warrants, or any
combination thereof, as determined by the underwriters, but such
purchases cannot exceed an aggregate of 15% of the number of shares
of common stock (including the number of shares of common stock
issuable upon conversion of shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock) and warrants sold in the primary offering.  The
over-allotment option is exercisable for 45 days from the date of
this prospectus.  The Company's chief executive officer has
indicated that he intends to purchase $30,000 of Class A Units in
this offering at the public offering price.

The Company's common stock is listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market
under the symbol "RXII".  The closing price of the Company's common
stock on Dec. 9, 2016, as reported by NASDAQ, was $1.78 per share.
The Company has applied for the listing of the warrants offered
hereby on the NASDAQ Capital Market and will use its best efforts
to have that listing effective on or before the closing. The
Company does not intend to apply for listing of the shares of
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock on any securities exchange or
other trading system.

SANDY CREEK: S&P Affirms 'B' Project Rating; Outlook Negative
-------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it revised its recovery rating on
Sandy Creek Energy Associates L.P.'s term loan B due in 2020 to '2'
from '1'.  The 'B' project rating is unchanged.  The outlook is
negative.

The decrease in the recovery rating stems from a revision of S&P's
post-default valuation assumptions.  The merchant power market
under the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) has
deteriorated significantly during the past two years, especially
acute for coal-fired generators like Sandy Creek.  While the asset
has been buoyed to a significant degree by lucrative power purchase
agreements with offtakers of sufficient credit quality for around
half of its capacity, the longer-term forecast for dark spreads in
ERCOT has diminished markedly, in S&P's opinion. Additionally, this
project has somewhat more leverage than other ERCOT projects S&P
rates.

"We anticipate that contractual revenues will buoy the ratios to
some extent throughout the asset's expected 30-year life.  But
capacity factors, which have been weaker than we expected, will
remain weak because coal assets have difficulty remaining
competitive in a low gas pricing environment.  Market conditions
are so severe that the plant was offline for about six months, from
late 2015 until May 2016. It returned to service on May 9, 2016,
and has run normally since.  The negative outlook incorporates,
among other risks, the possibility that a continuation of weak
market trends could similarly affect operations in the future," S&P
said.

S&P's assessment of Sandy Creek's liquidity is neutral.  Sources
exceed uses (required amortization and interest) by well more than
1x (the threshold under our criteria) during the next 12 months,
and S&P do not anticipate that the issuer will have near-term
covenant compliance issues, as it has sufficient headroom.

The negative outlook reflects S&P's view that power prices under
ERCOT could continue to worsen during the next year, possibly
resulting in weaker cash flows and heightened refinancing risk.
While S&P expects debt service coverage ratios (DSCRs) to exceed
1.2x in most years during the term loan period, it would likely
drop to under 1.1x after refinancing, potentially leading to a cap
on the project rating if power prices weaken further.

Downside scenario

S&P could lower the rating if the project life coverage ratio
(PLCR) at refinancing in 2020 drops to under 1.1x consistently
(inclusive of a drawn revolver) or if minimum DSCRs, in any period,
drop to under 1x.  This would likely stem from continued weakening
of power prices, driven by low gas pricing, though S&P notes that
operational challenges could contribute to weaker cash flows as
well.  Additionally, a PLCR of lower than 1.1x could cap the rating
at 'B-'.

Upside scenario

S&P would revise the outlook to stable or, less likely, to positive
if power prices rebound such that minimum DSCRs during the
post-refinancing period improve to around 1.2x from their current
level of under 1.1x and S&P has comfort that such performance is
sustainable.  This could stem from the retirement of other coal
assets or a rebound in gas prices, which would raise power prices
and contribute to higher power demand.

SEATRUCK INC: Wants to Use Stonegate Bank Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------------
SeaTruck, Inc., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Florida for authorization to use Stonegate Bank's cash
collateral.

The Debtor's cash on hand and cash in its bank accounts constitute
cash collateral.  The Debtor said it requires court authority to
use this cash collateral in order to continue operating its
business and managing its affairs as a debtor-in-possession.

The Debtor's proposed monthly Budget provides for total expenses in
the amount of $42,363.

The Debtor proposes to:

     (1) grant Stonegate Bank replacement liens against all
collateral that had been pledged to it prior to the commencement of
the case;

     (2) furnish Stonegate Bank with monthly interest payments;
and

     (3) furnish Stonegate Bank with such adequate protection as is
generally provided by Chapter 11 debtors.

The Debtor contends that it will make monthly adequate protection
payments to Stonegate Bank consisting of interest against the
outstanding amount out pursuant to a line of credit that was
provided on or about Feb. 23, 2016, and that currently has an
outstanding balance of $232,091.

SIMMONS FOODS: Moody's Hikes Corporate Family Rating to B2
----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service, Inc. upgraded the ratings of Simmons
Foods, Inc. including the Corporate Family Rating to B2 from B3 and
senior secured second-lien debt rating to B3 from Caa1. The rating
outlook is stable.

The rating upgrades reflect Moody's expectation for relatively
stable overall operating performance in Simmons' core poultry and
pet food segments, improved earnings diversification and modest
financial leverage. These credit strengths partly offset Moody's
concerns about Simmons' ability to consistently generate free cash
flow due to the company's ongoing aggressive investments in
capacity expansion. While these investments are in support of new
growth prospects, they also carry high operational and business
risk.

"We expect Simmons' poultry segment to weaken next year on lower
chicken prices and higher input costs, but the business is coming
off a record year in 2016. We still expect the chicken business to
report good profitability metrics next year close to its historical
levels," commented Brian Weddington, a Moody's VP-Senior Credit
Officer.

Moody's expects that the company's pet food operations, which
represent about a third of total sales, will show continued growth
in sales and earnings, reflecting expanding business volume.

Simmons has been expanding capacity across all of its business
segments - poultry, pet food and feed ingredients - to increase its
business with new and existing customers. In late 2015, Simmons
launched a $36 million expansion of its feed ingredients operations
and in 2016 completed expansion projects in its poultry and wet pet
food operations. High levels of capital expenditures, currently
running at about 145% of depreciation, have been a major
contributor to past negative cash flow.

Moody's assumes that Simmons will likely reinvest most of its
future operating cash flows in growth projects. Thus, the rating
agency does not expect financial leverage to improve materially in
the near-term. However, the company should be able to sustain
debt/EBITDA at or below 4.0, which is adequate for the B2 rating
category.

Simmons Foods, Inc.

Ratings upgraded:

Corporate Family Rating to B2 from B3;

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

$415 million senior secured second-lien notes due 2021 to B3 (LGD4)
from Caa1 (LGD4).

The outlook is stable.

The B3 rating on the senior secured second-lien notes is one notch
below the B2 Corporate Family Rating. This reflects the effective
subordination of these instruments to the company's $185 million
secured asset based revolving credit facility (ABF).

Simmons' liquidity profile is good. As of September 2016, Simmons
had approximately $130 million available under its $185 million ABF
expiring December 2018. The most restrictive financial covenant
under the ABF is a minimum fixed charge covenant of 1.0 time, which
is applicable only when availability falls below $23 million.

Summary Rating Rationale

Simmons' B2 Corporate Family Rating reflects the company's high
sales concentration (over 50%) in the volatile poultry processing
industry and limited free cash flow due to heavy capital spending.
The rating is supported by Simmons' good liquidity, solid and
improving performance in its pet operations and relatively stable
performance in its chicken processing operations. In 2017, overall
profit margin in Simmons' poultry segment should decline to around
its historical average following a record year in 2016.

Simmons' ratings could be lowered if overall operating performance
deteriorates, if debt/EBITDA exceeds 4.5 times, or the company's
liquidity profile deteriorates. Simmons' ratings could be upgraded
if the company is able to establish a track record of stable
operating performance and positive free cash flow. Additionally,
debt/EBITDA would have to approach 3.0 times before Moody's would
consider a rating upgrade.

Simmons Foods, Inc. and affiliates, headquartered in Siloam
Springs, Arkansas, is a vertically integrated poultry processor,
and the largest private label manufacturer of canned pet food in
the United States and Canada. The company generates its sales
through three primary business groups: Poultry (59%); Pet Food
(34%); and Protein (7%), which includes Simmons' rendering
operations. The company is principally owned and controlled by
members of the Simmons family. Net sales reported for the twelve
month period ended September 30, 2016 totaled approximately $1.4
billion.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Global Protein
and Agriculture Industry" published in May 2013.

SIRVA INC: S&P Raises Issue Level Rating to B+ on Updated Criteria
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has reviewed its recovery and
issue-level ratings for SIRVA Inc. that were labeled as "under
criteria observation" (UCO) after publishing its revised recovery
ratings criteria on Dec. 7, 2016.  With S&P's criteria review
complete, it is removing the UCO designation from these ratings and
are raising the issue level rating to 'B+' from 'B' and revising
the recovery rating to '2L' from '3H' on the $300 million term
loan.

These rating actions stem solely from the application of S&P's
revised recovery criteria and do not reflect any change in its
assessment of the corporate credit ratings for issuers of the
affected debt issues.

SPORTS AUTHORITY: Wants Plan Filing Period Extended to March 27
---------------------------------------------------------------
TSAWD Holdings, Inc., and its affiliated debtors ask the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to extend their
exclusive periods for filing a chapter 11 plan and soliciting
acceptances to the plan, through March 27, 2017 and May 27, 2017.

The Debtors' exclusive periods for filing a chapter 11 plan and
soliciting acceptances to the plan are currently set to expire on
Dec. 27, 2016 and Feb. 26, 2017.

The Debtors tell the Court that they now seek an additional
extension of the Exclusive Periods so that they may be afforded
sufficient time to finish reconciliations and other post-closing
administrative tasks related to their asset sales that commenced
upon entry of the Court's Settlement Approval Order.  The Debtors
further tell the Court that following this process, the Debtors
will evaluate their assets and administrative liabilities, on a
Debtor-by-Debtor basis, in order to determine if any chapter 11
plan is feasible with respect to one or more of the Debtors.  The
Debtors believe that it is appropriate to maintain the Exclusive
Periods so as to reduce any administrative expenses that may be
incurred in connection with any competing chapter 11 plans that are
filed before it can be determined whether any chapter 11 plan can
be confirmed, and if so, which Debtors have the ability to do so.

                 About Sports Authority Holdings

with roots dating back to 1928.  The Debtors currently operate 464

Sports Authority and six of its affiliates filed Chapter 11
bankruptcy petitions (Bankr. D. Del. Case Nos. 16-10527 to
16-10533) on March 2, 2016.  The petitions were signed by Michael
E. Foss as chairman & chief executive officer.

creditors of Sports Authority Holdings Inc. to serve on the
official committee of unsecured creditors.  Lawyers at Pachulski

Unsecured Creditors.

                         *     *     *

In May 2016, the Delaware Court allowed Sports Authority to proceed
with the liquidation of all of its roughly 450 stores across the
country after the Debtors resolved or beat out about 100 objections
to the sale.  Judge Mary F. Walrath approved an agreement for a
joint venture of Gordon Brothers Retail Partners LLC, Hilco
Merchant Resources LLC and Tiger Capital Group LLC to conduct going
out of business sales.  The Joint Venture won an auction for the
Debtors' inventory.  The Debtors failed to obtain a winning
going-concern bid at a May 17, 2016 auction.

In July 2016, Judge Walrath approved the sale of the Debtors'
intellectual property and more than two dozens of property leases
to Dick's Sporting Goods Inc.  A Wall Street Journal report, citing
anonymous sources, said Dick's bid was for $15 million.


STARZ LLC: S&P Lowers CCR to 'B+', Then Withdraws Ratings
---------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it lowered its ratings on Starz LLC,
including the corporate credit rating to 'B+' from 'BB-'.  S&P then
removed the ratings from CreditWatch, where it had placed them with
negative implications on July 1, 2016.  The rating outlook is
stable.

S&P subsequently withdrew all its ratings on Starz because the
company is now a wholly owned unit of the parent entity Lions Gate.
The withdrawn ratings include the corporate credit rating and the
issue-level and recovery ratings on Starz's $675 million senior
notes due 2019, which Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. redeemed in
full on Dec. 8.

S&P had placed its ratings on Starz on CreditWatch when the
acquisition was announced in June.

STONE ENERGY: Seeks Court OK of Prepackaged Restructuring Plan
--------------------------------------------------------------
Stone Energy Corporation and its domestic subsidiaries had filed
voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas to pursue
a pre-packaged plan of reorganization in accordance with its
previously announced comprehensive balance sheet restructuring
efforts.

On Nov. 17, 2016, the Debtors commenced a solicitation to seek
acceptance by a majority of those voting in each voting class of
claims of the Company's creditors under the Plan, including (a) the
lenders under the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement,
dated as of June 24, 2014, as amended, modified, or otherwise
supplemented from time to time among Stone as borrower, Bank of
America, N.A. as administrative agent and issuing bank, and the
financial institutions named therein, and (b) the holders of the
Company's 1 3/4% Senior Convertible Notes due 2017 and the
Company's 7 1/2% Senior Notes due 2022.  Stone expects the
solicitation period to end on Dec. 16, 2016.

On Oct. 20, 2016, the Debtors and Noteholders holding approximately
85.4% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes executed a
restructuring support agreement.  On Dec. 14, 2016, the Debtors,
the Noteholders holding approximately 79.7% of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes and the Banks holding 100% of the
aggregate principal amount owing under the Credit Agreement entered
into an Amended and Restated Restructuring Support Agreement that
amends, supersedes and restates in its entirety the Original RSA.
In connection with entry into the A&R RSA and the commencement of
the bankruptcy cases, the Debtors amended the Plan.

Pursuant to the terms of the Plan as revised to be consistent with
the terms of the A&R RSA and the term sheet annexed to the A&R RSA,
Noteholders, Banks and other interest holders will receive
treatment under the Plan, summarized as follows:

   * Noteholders will receive their pro rata share of (a) $100
     million of cash, (b) 96% of the common stock in reorganized
     Stone and (c) $225 million of new 7.5% second lien notes due
     2022.

   * Existing common stockholders of Stone will receive their pro
     rata share of 4% of the common stock in reorganized Stone and
     warrants for up to 10% of the post-petition equity
     exercisable upon the Company reaching certain benchmarks     
     pursuant to the terms of the proposed new warrants.

   * Banks signatory to the A&R RSA will receive their respective
     pro rata share of commitments and obligations under an
     amended Credit Agreement, as well as their respective share
     of the Company's unrestricted cash, as of the effective date
     of the Plan, in excess of $25 million, net of certain fees,
     payments, escrows or distributions pursuant to the Plan and
     the PSA, defined below.

   * Banks not signatory to the A&R RSA will have the option to
     receive either (a) the same treatment as the Banks signatory
     to the A&R RSA, or (b) their respective pro rata share of new
     senior secured term loans plus collateral for their
     respective pro rata share of issued but undrawn letters of
     credit.

   * All claims of creditors with unsecured claims other than
     claims by the Noteholders, including vendors, will be
     unaltered and will be paid in full in the ordinary course of
     business to the extent those claims are undisputed.  Stone
     estimates that such unsecured claims are in the range of
     approximately $17 million to $27 million in the aggregate.

Each of the foregoing common equity percentages in reorganized
Stone is subject to dilution from the exercise of the new warrants
and a management incentive plan.

The A&R RSA contains certain covenants on the part of the Debtors
and the Noteholders and Banks who are signatories to the A&R RSA,
including that those Noteholders and Banks will vote in favor of
the Plan, support the sale of approximately 86,000 net acres in the
Appalachia regions of Pennsylvania and West Virginia to an
affiliate of Tug Hill, Inc., pursuant to the terms of that certain
Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated Oct. 20, 2016, as amended on
Dec. 9, 2016, and otherwise facilitate the restructuring
transaction, in each case subject to certain terms and conditions
in the A&R RSA.  The consummation of the Plan will be subject to
customary conditions and other requirements, as well as the sale by
Stone of the Properties for a cash purchase price of at least $350
million and approval of the Bankruptcy Court.  The A&R RSA also
provides for termination by each party, or by any party, upon the
occurrence of certain events, including without limitation,
termination by the Noteholders or the Banks upon the failure of the
Company to achieve certain milestones set forth in Schedule 1 to
the A&R RSA.

Assuming implementation of the Plan, Stone expects to eliminate
approximately $1.2 billion in principal amount of outstanding
debt.

No trustee has been appointed, and Stone and its subsidiaries will
continue to operate as "debtors in possession" under the
jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the orders of the
Bankruptcy Court.  To assure ordinary course operations, Stone is
seeking approval from the Bankruptcy Court for a variety of "first
day" motions, including authority to maintain bank accounts and
other customary relief.

Subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, the Plan is
expected to be consummated in approximately 90 days.  Stone
believes it has adequate liquidity to maintain its operations in
the ordinary course and does not intend to seek any
debtor-in-possession financing during the pendency of the
bankruptcy cases. Stone plans, subject to approval by the
Bankruptcy Court, to continue to pay vendors, royalty owners and
other parties in the ordinary course throughout the bankruptcy
process.

Stone has been in contact with the New York Stock Exchange and
anticipates the continued listing of its common stock on the NYSE
throughout the bankruptcy process so long as the Company continues
to meet the minimum continued listing standards set forth by the
NYSE.

Concurrent with filing the bankruptcy petitions, David Lawrence's
role as Special Liaison of the Independent Directors to work
together with the management of Stone to help with assessing
restructuring alternatives came to an end.  Mr. Lawrence will
continue in his role as an independent director throughout the
reorganization process.

The Debtors filed their voluntary Chapter 11 petitions and the Plan
in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas in
Houston.  Information about the bankruptcy cases can be found at

SUNEDISON INC: Selling 100% Interest in TerraForm for $42.5 Million
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Judge e Stuart M. Bernstein of the U.S Bankruptcy Court of the
Southern District of New York will convene a hearing on Jan. 12,
2017 at 10:00 a.m. (PET) to consider SunEdison, Inc.'s and
Terraform Private Holdings, LLC (Seller)'s private sale of 100% of
equity interests in TerraForm Private, LLC, to DIF INFRA 4 US, LLC
and DIF IV CO-INVEST, LLC for $42,500,000.  

The objection deadline is Jan. 5, 2017 at 4:00 p.m. (PET).

The Seller, TerraForm Private Holdings, holds the Equity Interests
in TerraForm Private, which in turn holds certain indirect
interests in a group of fully constructed and operating wind power
projects with approximately 806 MW of capacity.  The Equity
Interests, which were originally acquired from Atlantic Power in
June 2015, consist of two types: (i) TP PREPP Units, entitling the
holder to dividends as a preferred stockholder, and (ii) Common
Units, which provide a managing interest, but a subordinated
economic stake.  The Seller owns all of the Common Units, as well
as 11.7% of the outstanding PREPP Units, with the remainder of the
PREPP Units held separately by the Buyer and John Hancock.

SunEdison paid $95,000,000 to acquire the Equity Interests --
$20,000,000 of which was allocated to the TP PREPP Units and
$75,000,000 was allocated to the Common Units.  Macquarie,
predecessor to the Buyer, purchased its TP PREPP Units for
$100,000,000 and Hancock did so for $50,000,000.  TerraForm AP
Acquisitions Holdings, LLC, the direct subsidiary of TerraForm
Private, is a borrower under a term loan with approximately
$258,468,000 outstanding as of Nov. 9, 2016. Due to an inability to
deliver audited financials, such term loan has been in default,
causing the incurrence of approximately $14,000 per day in default
interest since May 29, 2016 with an additional daily interest
charge of approximately $10,000 beginning on June 30, 2016.  The
default interest had the effect of reducing the value of the Common
Units, due to the priority in distributions payable to the holders
of TP PREPP Units.

On Dec. 5, 2016, the Seller was successful in negotiating
forbearance with respect to the default interest.  In connection
with that forbearance agreement, the lenders also pre-approved a
change of control to Buyer and no one else.  To consummate the Sale
Transaction, at the request of the Buyer, the Seller filed a
voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
immediately prior to the filing of the Motion.

Prior to the April 21, 2016, in connection with a potential sale
process for the Equity Interests as well as other assets of the
Company, Rothschild and the Company identified and developed a list
of potentially interested parties and solicited such parties'
interest in a sale transaction, including the Buyer.  In May 2016,
the Seller entered discussions with the parties that entered into
NDAs in connection with the sale of the Equity Interests.  Several
weeks thereafter, in July 2016, the Seller began intensive
negotiations with the Buyer – all while continuing to explore
alternatives from other potential purchasers – and continued to
negotiate the MIPA through the first week in December 2016.

During the course of negotiations, the Buyer offered substantial
additional monetary consideration on the condition that the deal
proceed through a private sale, rather than a public auction. In
evaluating the offers, the Buyer provided the most compelling offer
– both in terms of amount of consideration and certainty of
closing.  In order to close the Sale Transaction, the Seller must
obtain numerous consents to a change of control from project-level
counterparties.  Since the Buyer is already the largest holder of
TP PREPP Units, the Seller believes that obtaining consents to a
change of control to the Buyer will be much easier than to a new
entrant to the capital structure.  Indeed, in anticipation of a
potential deal with the Buyer, the Seller has already obtained the
consent of the term lenders to a change of control to the Buyer.

As a result, the Debtors have determined that the Buyer's offer for
the Equity Interests is fair, reasonable, and in the best interests
of the Debtors' estates, their creditors, and all other parties in
interest.

The Seller filed a petition under chapter 11 of title 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code immediately prior to filing the Motion pursuant to
the terms of the  Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (MIPA),
dated as of Dec. 14, 2016, to obtain relief under section 363 of
the Bankruptcy Code.  

The MIPA contemplates the sale of the Seller's Equity Interests to
the Buyer for a total of $42,500,000, subject to certain reductions
for the cost of obtaining certain consents under secured hedge
agreements, payable as follows: (i) at Closing, $41,950,000 less
(x) the TerraForm Interest Rate Hedge Agreement Consent Costs
payable in cash to the Seller, and (y) any reimbursement, up to
$1,500,000, for certain costs, such as debt service, incurred by
the other holders of TP PREPP Units – i.e., the Buyer and John
Hancock – which may be paid or contributed by such holders on
behalf of the Seller, with Seller's approval; and (ii) Escrow
Amount of $550,000 paid into escrow and to be released to the
Seller within 12 months following the Closing.

The proposed Sale Order, and the MIPA contain these items that may
be considered Extraordinary Provisions under the Sale Guidelines:

   a. Private Sale: The sale of the Equity Interests pursuant to
the MIPA does not contemplate an auction or other further
competitive bidding process.

   b. Deadlines that Effectively Limit Notice: As is set forth in
the MIPA, the Sale Transaction may be terminated if the Sale
Approval Order is not entered by Jan. 19, 2017.

   c. Interim Arrangements with Proposed Buyer: The Seller is
required to comply with certain customary interim operating
covenants under the terms of the MIPA.

   d. Requested Findings as to Successor Liability: The Debtors
seek a finding that the Buyer is not and shall not be deemed a
successor to the Seller as a result of the consummation of the
Transactions.

   e. No-Solicitation Provisions: Unless the MIPA is terminated,
the Seller agrees that it or its representatives shall not enter
into discussions regarding, or solicit, an Alternative Transaction,
which does not apply to whole-company transactions or plans of
reorganization that may involve the Equity Interests.

   f. Sale Free and Clear: The Equity Interests shall be
transferred free and clear of all interests to the fullest extent
permitted by Bankruptcy Code section 363.

   g. Relief from Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h): The Debtors seek relief
from the 14-day stay imposed by Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h).

A copy of the MIPA attached to the Motion is available for free
at:

             http://bankrupt.com/misc/SunEdison_Inc_1908_Sales.pdf

To the knowledge of the Seller, the Equity Interests are wholly
unencumbered.

As a condition precedent to the Buyer's obligations to Closing, the
Buyer has requested full releases for itself, TerraForm Private,
the Project Holding Companies and the Project Companies and their
successors from any and all claims, demands, rights, causes of
action, known or unknown, that the Debtors and Affiliates of the
Debtors have or may have that relate to or are in connection with
the Equity Interests or with the Buyer's existing investments in
TerraForm Private ("MIPA Releases").

In connection with providing the MIPA Releases, the Debtors
undertook an analysis of potential estate claims subject to the
Buyer's demand for a release.  In the Debtors' judgment, a
commercial deal in which the estates will benefit from
approximately $42,500,000 in proceeds, is superior to an uncertain
and likely costly litigation path.  The estates still retain
potential claims they may have against TERP related to the Atlantic
Power transaction.  As a result, the Debtors exercised their
business judgment to determine that the most value-maximizing
course was to agree to provide the MIPA Releases in exchange for
the purchase price.  Therefore, the MIPA Releases should be
approved by the Court.

The Debtors have articulated a clear business justification for
entering into the Sale Transaction.  They have determined that a
sale of the Equity Interests will maximize value and is in the best
interests of the Debtors, their creditors, their estates, their
stakeholders, and other parties in interest.

The sale of the Equity Interests must be approved and consummated
promptly in order to preserve the value of the Equity Interests.
Therefore, time is of the essence in consummating the Sale
Transaction.  Accordingly, the Debtors respectfully request that
the Court waive the 14-day stay imposed by Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h),
as the exigent nature of the relief sought justifies immediate
relief.

TEKNI-PLEX INC: S&P Raises Rating on 2nd Lien Bank Loan to 'B-'
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings raised its issue-level rating on Tekni-Plex
Inc.'s second-lien bank loan to 'B-' from 'CCC+' and revised the
recovery rating on the loan to '5' from '6'.  The '5' recovery
rating indicates S&P's expectation for modest recovery (10%-30%;
lower half of the range) of principal in the event of a payment
default.

All of S&P's other ratings on the company remain unchanged,
including its 'B' issue-level rating and '3' recovery rating on
Tekni-Plex's upsized first-lien term loan ($641 million
outstanding).  The '3' recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation
for meaningful recovery (50%-70%; lower half of the range) of
principal in the event of a payment default.  The company has
increased the size of the incremental add-on to its first-lien term
loan by $35 million from the initially proposed $45 million (to $80
million).

S&P raised its issue rating on the company's second-lien term loan
to reflect its improved recovery prospects following the upsizing
of the first-lien term loan.  In addition, this rating action also
reflects management's use of the incremental proceeds from the
first-lien upsizing to reduce the debt outstanding under its
second-lien term loan to about $66 million from $160 million.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, the company's total adjusted debt leverage
was 6x, which is within the appropriate range for a highly
leveraged financial risk profile.  S&P views the upsizing of the
company's first-lien term loan as leverage neutral because it
expects that management will use the proceeds to pay down a
significant portion of Tekni-Plex's second-lien debt.

                         RECOVERY ANALYSIS

Key analytical factors:

   -- S&P has valued the company on a going-concern basis using a
      5.5x multiple of S&P's estimated emergence EBITDA of nearly
      $68 million for a gross emergence enterprise value of
      $373 million.

   -- S&P's simulated default scenario contemplates a default
      occurring in the first half of 2019 and assumes that the
      company's EBITDA would decline significantly because of a
      more competitive pricing environment.

   -- S&P's recovery analysis assumes that in a simulated default
      scenario, after satisfying any unpaid priority
      administrative expenses, the recovery expectations for the
      first-lien facilities will be in the lower half of the 50%-
      70% range.  The value derived from the foreign subsidiaries'

      unpledged equity interest should provide modest recovery to
      the second-lien term loan (10%-30%; lower half of the
      range).

Simplified recovery waterfall

   -- Emergence EBITDA: $68 million
   -- Multiple: 5.5x
   -- Gross recovery value: $373 million
   -- Net recovery value for waterfall after admin. expenses (5%):

      $354 million
   -- Obligor/nonobligor valuation split: 65%/35%
   -- Estimated priority claims (asset-based lending [ABL] or
      other): $0
   -- Estimated first-lien claims: $671 million
   -- Value available for first-lien claims: $346 million
   -- Recovery range: 50%-70% (lower end of the range)
   -- Estimated second-lien claim: $69 million
   -- Value available for unsecured claim: $7 million
   -- Recovery range: 10%-30% (lower end of the range)

TESORO CORP: S&P Assigns 'BB+' Rating on Proposed $1.6BB Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB+' issue-level rating and '3'
recovery rating to Tesoro Corp.'s proposed $1.6 billion senior
unsecured notes due 2023 and 2026.  At the same time, S&P placed
the rating on the notes on CreditWatch with positive implications.

The recovery rating of '3' indicates S&P's expectation of
meaningful (50% to 70%; capped at the higher end of the range)
recovery if a payment default occurs.  The company intends to use
net proceeds, together with cash on hand and borrowings under its
revolving credit facility, to fund the cash consideration for the
acquisition of Western Refining Inc. and its operating
subsidiaries, Northern Tier Energy L.P. and Western Refining
Logistics L.P., to repay and redeem certain outstanding debt of
Western Refining and its subsidiaries, and to pay related fees and
expenses.

San Antonio-based Tesoro Corp. is one of the largest independent
petroleum refining and marketing companies in the western U.S.
Tesoro owns and operates seven refineries with 895,000 barrels per
day of capacity, a crude oil and refined products logistics
partnership, and a wholesale and retail refined products
distribution business.  S&P's corporate credit rating on Tesoro
Corp. is 'BB+', and the rating is on CreditWatch with positive
implications.

TRINITY RIVER: Has Until January 31 to File Chapter 11 Plan
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Tony M. Davis of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of Texas extended the exclusive periods within which
Trinity River Resources, LP has the exclusive right to file and
solicit a plan of reorganization, through and including Jan. 31,
2017 and April 3, 2017, respectively.

The Troubled Company Reporter has earlier reported that the Debtor
sought exclusivity extension so that it can have adequate time to
devote resources to pursuing a sale of its assets and developing a
plan of reorganization that will benefit all creditors and interest
holders.  The Debtor related that its independent manager, John T.
Young, Jr. of Conway MacKenzie had spent the last two months, since
its appointment on Sept. 1, 2016, reviewing the Debtor's affairs
and restructuring alternatives, including a potential sale of the
Debtor's assets.

In addition, the Debtor's independent manager was still seeking to
address certain unresolved contingencies existing in the Debtor's
Chapter 11 case, specifically, (a) the disclosure of proprietary
seismic data and interpretations as part of any sale of assets; (b)
the assignment, or partial assignments, of acreage on which the
Debtor has made only partial payments of the leasehold acquisition
costs; (c) determination of the transfer of operatorship of the
assets under the applicable contracts and joint operating
agreements; and (d) the Adversary Proceeding No. 16-01074 filed by
Anadarko E&P Onshore LLC.

TRONOX INC: Court Approves Future Tort Claims Instructions
----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Michael E. Wiles of the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York granted the Tort Claims Trustee's
request for instructions regarding future tort claims in the
Chapter 11 case of Tronox Incorporated, et al.

The Tronox Incorporated Tort Claims Trust was established under the
confirmed plan of reorganization.  The Trust is governed by a Tort
Claims Trust Agreement and by a set of Tort Claims Trust
Distribution Procedures (TDPs).  The Plan and the Trust Agreement
establish categories into which allowed tort claims are to be
divided, and the TDPs are rules that govern the collection, review,
allowance and payment of tort claims.

The Garretson Resolution Group, Inc., as trustee of the Trust,
filed a motion seeking instructions as to the interpretation and
application of the provisions of the Plan, the Trust Agreement and
the TDPs that govern "Future Tort Claims."

Judge Wiles granted the Trustee's request for instructions, and
held that a claim qualifies as a "Future Tort Claim" if it does not
fall into the other categories of Tort Claims and if one or more of
the following conditions are met:

     (1) The claim is based on an alleged exposure to a harmful
         substance that occurred on or after August 12, 2009;

     (2) The claim is based on an exposure that occurred before
         August 12, 2009, but as to which no injury or disease
         was manifested until on or after August 12, 2009; or

     (3) The exposure, as well as the manifestation of an injury
         or disease, predated August 12, 2009, but the claimant
         is able to establish (a) that the claimant's failure to
         file a timely proof of claim should be excused on
         grounds of excusable neglect, (b) that the purported
         discharge of the claimant's claim was a violation of due
         process and therefore ineffective.

Judge Wiles ordered that determinations as to claims that fall into
categories (1) and (2), above, will be made by the Trustee pursuant
to the TDPs and subject to the dispute resolution procedures that
are set forth in the TDPs, while claimants in category (3) who wish
to obtain relief will be required to file motions seeking such
relief from the Court.

                     About Vapor Corp

Vapor Corp. operates 20 vape stores in the Southeastern United
States and online where it sells vaporizers, liquids for vaporizers
and e-cigarettes.  The Company also designs, markets and
distributes electronic cigarettes, vaporizers, e-liquids and
accessories under the Vapor X, Hookah Stix, Vaporin, Krave, and
Honey Stick brands.  "Electronic cigarettes" or "e-cigarettes," and
"vaporizers" are battery-powered products that enable users to
inhale nicotine vapor without fire, smoke, tar, ash, or carbon
monoxide.  The Company also designs and develops private label
brands for its distribution customers.  Third party manufacturers
manufacture the Compoany's products to meet its design
specifications.  The Company markets its products as alternatives
to traditional tobacco cigarettes and cigars.  In 2014, as a
response to market product demand changes, Vapor began to shift its
primary focus from electronic cigarettes to vaporizers.

Vapor Corp reported a net loss allocable to common shareholders of
$36.26 million in 2015 following a net loss allocable to common
shareholders of $13.85 million in 2014.  As of Sept. 30, 2016,
Vapor Corp. had $20.76 million in total assets, $48.72 million in
total liabilities and a total stockholders' deficit of $27.95
million.
  
Marcum LLP, in New York, NY, issued a "going concern" qualification
on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended Dec.
31, 2015, citing that Company has incurred net losses and needs to
raise additional funds to meet its obligations and sustain its
operations.  In addition, the Company currently does not have
enough authorized common shares to settle all of its outstanding
warrants if those warrants were exercised pursuant to their
cashless exercise provisions.  As a result, the Company could be
required to settle a portion of these warrants with cash. These
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.


VIAWEST INC: Moody's Affirms B2 Corporate Family Rating
-------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed ViaWest, Inc.'s B2 corporate
family rating, B2-PD probability of default rating, and changed the
ratings outlook to stable from negative. As part of the same rating
action, Moody's also affirmed ViaWest's B2 senior secured revolving
credit facility rating and affirmed Shaw Data Centre LP's B2 senior
secured term loan B rating. Shaw Data Centre LP is a sister company
to ViaWest, is the term loan borrower and is guaranteed by
ViaWest.

The rating action was prompted by Moody's updated expectation that
despite ongoing cash flow deficits, ViaWest's leverage of
debt/EBITDA will remain approximately 5.5x over the next two years.
With this and given Shaw Communications Inc.'s (Baa3 stable)
sponsorship, cash flow deficits are expected to be manageable.

The following summarizes Moody's ratings and today's rating actions
for ViaWest:

Issuer: ViaWest, Inc.

-- Corporate Family Rating, Affirmed at B2

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

-- Outlook, Changed to Stable from Negative

-- Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, Affirmed at B2 (LGD3
from LGD4)

Issuer: Shaw Data Centre LP

-- Senior Secured Term Loan B, Affirmed at B2 (LGD3 from LGD4)

RATINGS RATIONALE

ViaWest's B2 corporate family rating reflects its weak free cash
flow profile and acquisitive strategy, the combination of which
suggests the potential of additional financing being required to
sustain operations as ViaWest invests in additional capacity to
take advantage of growing demand. While the company's small size
and economy-of-scale competitive disadvantages compared to very
large global competitors amplify financial flexibility concerns,
Shaw's sponsorship differentiates ViaWest from the latter's
B3-rated peers and Moody's expects leverage of debt/EBITDA to be
about 5.5x. Viawest's stable base of contracted recurring revenues,
its position in smaller markets with less intense competitive
dynamics, and the currently strong market demand for
colocation/managed services are credit-positive considerations.

Moody's expects ViaWest to have adequate liquidity over the next
twelve months. Moody's projects ViaWest will consume up to about
$50 million of cash over the next 12 months due to high capital
intensity, and expects the company to continue relying heavily upon
its revolving credit facility. Moody's anticipates ample covenant
compliance room as ViaWest accesses the revolver to backstop
working capital swings and to fund its aggressive capital program.

Rating Outlook

The outlook is stable based on expectations of the that leverage of
debt/EBITDA remaining approximately 5.5x, tempered by expectations
of continued negative free cash flow for the foreseeable future.

What Could Change the Rating - Up

Positive ratings pressure would develop if:

  - Underlying business conditions are favorable, the company is
effectively executing its strategic plans, is showing strong and
sustainable operational performance, and Moody's expected:

  - Debt-to-EBITDA to be sustained at less than 5.0x (5.5x at
    Aug. 31, 2016), and

  - Free cash flow to debt to be sustained above 5% (-3.3% at
    Aug. 31, 2016)

What Could Change the Rating - Down

Alternatively, negative ratings actions could result if:

  - Business conditions are expected to be weak for a prolonged
period, or if liquidity becomes strained, revenue growth slows, or

  - If Moody's adjusted leverage is above 6x (5.5x at Aug. 31,
    2016).

The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Global
Communications Infrastructure Rating Methodology" published in June
2011.

Headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado, ViaWest, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Shaw Communications Inc. of Calgary,
Alberta, is a provider of data center and managed services. The
company currently operates in 8 markets across the United States
and manages a data center in Canada for its parent.


VINH PHAT SUPERMARKET: Seeks March 18 Plan Exclusivity Extension
----------------------------------------------------------------
Vinh Phat Supermarket, Inc., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of California to extend the exclusive periods
during which the Debtor has the exclusive right to file a plan of
reorganization, through March 18, 2017, and a new deadline of March
23, 2017 for the Court to confirm the Plan of Reorganization filed
by the Debtor on December 8, 2016.

The Debtor relates that various factors combined to cause it to
seek relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, with the
ultimate goal of preserving the value of its estate's assets and
successfully reorganizing.  

Among other things, the Debtor relates that it has suffered from
the cost and expense caused by lengthy litigation with one of its
shareholders, Muoi Lam, who filed a complaint in Sacramento County
Superior Court against Vinh Phat and her fellow shareholders Suying
Plaskett, Sau Vong, and Chan Cam Ly.  In the State Court
Litigation, Ms. Lam seeks recovery from Vinh Phat for a variety of
employment claims.  In addition, Ms. Lam alleges a claim solely
against Suying Plaskett, Sau Vong, and Chan Cam Ly for breach of
fiduciary duty.  Finally, Ms. Lam alleges a claim against both Vinh
Phat and the Shareholder Defendants for financial elder abuse.

The Debtor obtained an order from the Bankruptcy Court enjoining
Muoi Lam from pursuing the State Court Litigation in state court,
and thereafter transferred the State Court Litigation to the
Bankruptcy Court as Adversary Proceeding No. 16-02209. There is a
settlement conference scheduled to take place between all parties
to the litigation on December 15, 2016.

Because the Debtor believes that a resolution can be reached
between the bankruptcy estate and all of the shareholders, the
Debtor moved forward with filing a plan of reorganization on
December 8, 2016.  Subsequently, the Court has entered an order
conditionally approving the Disclosure Statement, fixing hearing on
confirmation of the Debtor's Plan of Reorganization for January 24,
2017, just two days after the end of the 45-day window for the
Court to confirm the proposed Plan.

VINH PHAT SUPERMARKET: Unsecureds To Recover 100% Over 3 Years
--------------------------------------------------------------
Vinh Phat Supermarket Inc., filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Eastern District of California a small business disclosure
statement describing its plan of reorganization, dated Dec. 8,
2016, which proposes to give general unsecured creditors a
distribution of 100% of their allowed claims without interest and
over time.

Class 3-2 consists of general unsecured creditors, which will be
paid a percentage of their claims over time. The percentage will be
determined based on the amount available after all other plan
payments are made. Beginning at the end of the first quarter
following the Effective Date, a minimum of 25% of the amount
general unsecured claims will be paid quarterly over four quarters
in equal installments; the remaining percentage will be paid over
no longer than a period of three years in equal quarterly
installments directly from the payments to be received by the
Debtor from the promissory note from the purchaser.

The Plan will be funded from cash on hand and by the sale of the
business. The current offer for the Debtor's assets is cash of
$425,782, issuance of a promissory note amortized over and fully
due and payable in three years for $692,711, and quarterly payments
over one year of $586,823.30 for inventory sold by the purchaser,
for total consideration of $1,705,316.

WALTER INVESTMENT: S&P Affirms 'CCC+' Rating on Sr. Unsec. Notes
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has reviewed its recovery and
issue-level ratings for Walter Investment Management Corp. that
were labeled as "under criteria observation" (UCO) after publishing
its revised recovery ratings criteria on Dec. 7, 2016. With S&P's
criteria review complete, it is removing the UCO designation from
these ratings and are lowering the issue-level rating to "B" and
the recovery rating to "3" on the company's
$1.5 billion 2013 Term Loan.  Previously, the issue-level rating
was "B+" and the recovery rating was "2".  S&P's 'CCC+' rating on
the senior unsecured notes and recovery rating of '6' are affirmed.


Simulated default assumptions

   -- A low-interest-rate environment leading to depressed MSR
      valuations
   -- A sustained period of rapid amortization of MSRs with
      limited ability to refinance the repayments
   -- Reduced new origination activity
   -- An increase in borrower delinquencies
   -- An increase in the discount rate to value MSRs

Simplified waterfall

   -- Net enterprise value (after 5% administrative costs):
      $918 million
   -- Collateral value available to secured creditors:
      $918 million
   -- Term loan debt and draw on revolver: $1,491 million
      -- Recovery expectations: 60%-65%  
   -- Collateral value available to senior unsecured creditors:
      $0 million
   -- Senior unsecured debt: $560 million
      -- Recovery expectations: 0%-10%

These rating actions stem solely from the application of S&P's
revised recovery criteria and do not reflect any change in its
assessment of the corporate credit ratings for issuers of the
affected debt issues.

WILLARD BLANKENSHIP: Apman Buying 8.5% Interest in Apnea for $5K
----------------------------------------------------------------
Willard J. Blankenship asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of California to authorize the sale of his 8.5%
interest in Apnea Analysis Center, Inc., to Kevin Apman for $5,000,
subject to overbid.

A hearing on the Motion is set for Jan. 12, 2017 at 10:30 a.m.

Blankenship commenced the case as a voluntary Chapter 11 on in
October 2015.  The Order Confirming the Debtor's Chapter 11 Plan
was entered on Oct. 11, 2016.  The confirmed Plan contemplates a
sale of the Property by noticed motion.

Blankenship's original investment was likely $5,000 or $10,000
although he no longer remembers.  The corporation has paid
occasional dividends but Blankenship's interest is a minority
interest and David Moore, the President and majority owner (83%
interest), has the controlling interest and the ability to
determine when and if dividends will be paid.  For these reasons
the value of $5,000 was given to the shares in the schedules filed
in the case.

Moore has reported that there are negotiations for the purchase of
the company as a whole.  These negotiations, so far, have not
resulted in an offer acceptable to Moore.  

If Moore accepts an offer for the company as a whole prior to the
hearing of the motion, which would result in a greater valuation
than $5,000 for the bankruptcy estate's interest, the present
motion will be withdrawn.  

To Blankenship's knowledge Moore has been in negotiations with
several potential purchasers for more than a decade, to date no
offer has been accepted by Moore.  The confirmed Chapter 11 Plan
requires that the estate's interest in Apnea Analysis Center be
sold within one year of Plan confirmation.

The Purchaser, a friend of Blankenship, has deposited $5,000 in
Stephen Reynolds client trust account.  There are no liens against
the shares.  The sale is where is, as is, without any warranty
express or implied.  Blankenship has never had any management role
or any role other than an early investor.

                            *********

Monday's edition of the TCR delivers a list of indicative prices
for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par.  Prices are
obtained by TCR editors from a variety of outside sources during
the prior week we think are reliable.  Those sources may not,
however, be complete or accurate.  The Monday Bond Pricing table
is compiled on the Friday prior to publication.  Prices reported
are not intended to reflect actual trades.  Prices for actual
trades are probably different.  Our objective is to share
information, not make markets in publicly traded securities.
Nothing in the TCR constitutes an offer or solicitation to buy or
sell any security of any kind.  It is likely that some entity
affiliated with a TCR editor holds some position in the issuers
public debt and equity securities about which we report.

Each Tuesday edition of the TCR contains a list of companies with
insolvent balance sheets whose shares trade higher than $3 per
share in public markets.  At first glance, this list may look like
the definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled.  Assets, for example, reported at historical cost
net of depreciation may understate the true value of a firm's
assets.  A company may establish reserves on its balance sheet for
liabilities that may never materialize.  The prices at which
equity securities trade in public market are determined by more
than a balance sheet solvency test.

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

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

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

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

TCR subscribers have free access to our on-line news archive.
Point your Web browser to http://TCRresources.bankrupt.com/and use
the e-mail address to which your TCR is delivered to login.
