AEGIS TOXICOLOGY: Moody's Lowers Corp. Family Rating to B3
----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded Aegis Toxicology Sciences
Corporation's Corporate Family rating to B3 from B2, Probability of
Default Rating to B3-PD from B2-PD, and its second lien senior
secured term loan rating to Caa2 from Caa1. Moody's also affirmed
Aegis' first lien senior secured facility at B1. The rating outlook
is stable.

The rating downgrade reflects Moody's belief that leverage will
remain very high over the next year. Reduction in the company's
EBITDA and cash flow resulting from changes in reimbursement that
took effect in 2016 for toxicology lab services will limit Aegis'
ability to meaningfully repay debt over the near term. The
affirmation of the B1 rating on the company's first lien senior
secured credit facility reflects its senior position in the capital
structure and the benefit of loss absorption provided by the second
lien term loan.

The stable rating outlook incorporates Moody's expectation that
while Aegis will remain highly levered, metrics will gradually
improve in the coming year as the company will benefit from an
increase in Medicare reimbursement rates for diagnostic testing.

Following is a summary of Moody's actions.

Ratings downgraded:

Corporate Family Rating to B3 from B2

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

Second lien senior secured term loan to Caa2 (LGD 5) from Caa1
(LGD 5)

Ratings affirmed:

First lien senior secured revolving credit facility at B1 (LGD 3)

First lien senior secured term loan at B1 (LGD 3)

The rating outlook is stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

Aegis' B3 Corporate Family Rating reflects Moody's expectation that
the company will remain highly levered over the next 12 to 18
months. Leverage will improve throughout the next year due to an
increase in Medicare reimbursement but will likely remain around
6.0x by the end of 2017. The rating also reflects the company's
relatively small scale and reliance on one segment for the majority
of its profitability and growth. The rating also reflects Moody's
belief that Aegis' liquidity will be constrained in the near term
as the decline in profitability and increase in accounts receivable
due to delays in reimbursement from third party payors negatively
impacts the company's available cash.

The ratings could be downgraded if Aegis' key credit metrics or
liquidity profile further declines. In addition, the ratings could
be lowered if Aegis is unable to adapt to potential future negative
reimbursement developments, leading to a decline in company's
operating earnings and free cash flow.

Aegis' ratings could be upgraded if the company can demonstrate
revenue and EBITDA growth such that debt to EBITDA approaches 5.0
times, and free cash flow materially improves.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Service Industry published in October 2016.

Aegis Toxicology Sciences Corporation, headquartered in Nashville,
TN, is a specialty toxicology laboratory providing services to the
healthcare, sports, forensics, law enforcement and BioPharma
industries. Aegis is privately-owned by affiliates of financial
sponsor ABRY Partners II, LLC (ABRY). For the twelve months ended
September 30, 2016 the company generated revenue of approximately
$141 million.


ALL PHASE STEEL: Can Continue Using Cash Collateral Until Jan. 31
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Julie A. Manning of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Connecticut authorized All Phase Steel Works, LLC to
use cash collateral through through January 31, 2017.

The Debtor was authorized to collect and use the pre-petition
collateral, including without limitation the cash collateral, to
continue the usual and ordinary operations of its business by
paying those budgeted expenditures set forth on the budget.  The
approved January 2017 Budget reflects total operating expenditures
in the aggregate amount of $146,375.

The Debtor has represented that substantially all of its revenue is
derived from contracts and receivables obtained from operating its
steel construction business, and that it has an immediate and
continuing need for the use of cash collateral in order to continue
the operation of, and avoid immediate and irreparable harm to its
business, and to maintain and preserve going concern value.

Judge Manning acknowledged that without the ability to use cash
collateral, the Debtor will be unable to pay ongoing management,
payroll, raw material, insurance, utilities and other necessary
expenses related to the continued operation of the Debtor's
business, to generate cash flow, and to maintain the value of the
Debtor's assets.

The Debtor's Secured creditors are:

      (a) The Internal Revenue Service, which filed liens
pre-petition on the Debtor's assets for withholding taxes and other
federal taxes owed in the aggregate amount of $895,000.00.

      (b) CapCall LLC, which provided the Debtor with a credit
facility secured by liens and/or security interests in
substantially all of the Debtor's assets, and claimed that it is
owed $294,067, as of the Petition Date.

      (c) Superior Capital, which provided the Debtor with a credit
facility secured by liens and/or security interests in
substantially all of the Debtor's assets, and claimed that it is
owed $69,148, as of the Petition Date.

      (d) Metal Perreault Inc., which claimed that it is secured in
the amount of $225,000.00 as to certain specific account
receivables.

      (e) Allegheny Casualty Company, which issued surety bonds to
the Debtor in regard to eleven of its projects.

Judge Manning granted IRS and CapCall postpetition claims against
the Debtor's estate, which will have priority in payment over any
other indebtedness and/or obligations and over all administrative
expenses or charges against property.  IRS and CapCall were also
granted perfected replacement liens and/or security interests in
the postpetition assets of the Debtor's estate, equivalent in
nature, priority and extent to their liens in the prepetition
collateral and their proceeds. In addition, Judge Manning directed
the Debtor to pay the IRS $5,500 in December 2016, as adequate
protection.

Judge Manning granted Allegheny Casualty Co. the following adequate
protection for its interest in undisbursed contract funds from the
Bonded Projects:  

      (a) Right to monitor the Debtor's compliance by reasonable
access to the Debtor's books and records.  

      (b) The Debtor may discharge the obligation to afford
adequate protection to Allegheny Casualty in regard to the
undisbursed contract funds from the Masonicare Project to the
extent of all parties' continued compliance with the Joint Check
Agreement and will enter into such other or further joint check
agreements associated with contract funds owed to Debtor as a
result of labor, materials or services provided to the Project by
other subcontractor or vendors.

      (c) All of Allegheny Casualty's rights, claims, and
priorities to undisbursed contract funds from the Bonded Projects
are fully reserved and the Debtor reserves all of its rights, and
claims to contract funds owed from any bonded project still in
existence.

The Carve-Out, which will have a lien prior in right to
satisfaction from the Debtor's property generated post-petition,
senior to the replacement liens and any other liens granted by the
Court's Order, consists of:

     (1) the allowed administrative claims of attorneys and other
professionals retained by the Debtor in the Case pursuant to Code
Sections 327 and 1103 in the aggregate amount of $35,000;

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

     (3) any wages owed for the period ending January 31, 2017.

A further hearing on continued use of cash collateral will be held
on January 31, 2017 at 11:00 a.m. The deadline for the filing of
objections to the continued use of cash collateral is set on
January 26, 2017.

ALLIED CONSOLIDATED: Files Third Amended Disclosure Statement
-------------------------------------------------------------
Allied Consolidated Industries, Inc. filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Northern District of Ohio its latest disclosure
statement, which explains the company's proposed plan to exit
chapter 11 protection.

According to the filing, most of the company's properties will be
placed in the control of a creditor trust managed by John Lane as
trustee and overseen by a "Supervisory Board."

The Supervisory Board will consist of three creditors: an unsecured
creditor, a representative of U.S. Steel and a representative of
Norfolk Southern Railway Co.  These members will determine which
transactions should be entered into, and will make all
distributions to creditors.

Under the plan, the litigation claims will become property of the
reorganized company, subject to certain recovery rights in the
creditor trust.  The major asset is Allied Erecting & Dismantling
Co., Inc.'s real estate, which will be marketed for 24 months in
order to effectively liquidate the asset.

The plan creates 6 classes of claims and one class of interests.
The amount paid on the claims will depend on what is received for
the trust assets but with luck could be 100% of the claims,
according to the disclosure statement filed on Dec. 22.

A copy of the third amended disclosure statement is available for
free at https://is.gd/oloWQW

ALLIED CONSOLIDATED: Wants April 30 Solicitation Period Extension
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Allied Consolidated Industries, Inc. asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Northern District of Ohio to extend its exclusive period to
solicit acceptances of a Plan of Reorganization through April 30,
2017.

The Debtor filed an Amended Plan and Disclosure Statement on August
10, 2016, within the Debtor's exclusive period to file a Plan.  The
Debtor relates that the Disclosure Statement was not approved
during the hearing held on September 27, 2016.  The Debtor further
relates that it filed a Third Amended Plan and Disclosure Statement
which is currently scheduled for hearing on January 31, 2017.

The Debtor contends that during the first several months of this
case, the it made great progress toward the goal of reorganization
including, but not limited to: obtaining cash collateral orders;
approval of the employment Inglewood Associates LLC as crisis
managers and Eckert Seamans Cherin & Mellott, LLC as special
counsel in the chapter 11 case; resolving a motion for the
appointment of a chapter 11 trustee filed by United States Steel
Corporation; pursuing the substantive consolidation of the
affiliated Debtors’ estates; obtaining a claims bar date of
August 15, 2016; filing all monthly operating reports and,  filing
a disclosure statement and plan documents, as well amendments
thereto to address objection by various parties and applications to
employ professionals to assist with the sale of certain assets as
provided under the plan.

The Debtor tells the Court that since the filing of its first
Motion, additional cause has arisen for the requested extension.
The Debtor further tells the Court that it has conducted a
scheduled auction that resulted in proceeds in excess of the
projections. The Debtor says that its monthly operating reports
show proceeds which have surpassed expectations.  The Debtor
further says that it has maintained regular contact with key
parties and, both with and without court supervision, has sought
input and worked diligently at resolving issues in the case and
appeasing competing interests.

The Debtor asserts that although it has made substantial progress
in the case, the complexity of the business assets, which are
mostly industry specific consisting of hundreds of tons of scrap
metal to high-tech computer driven CNC milling machines, and the
issues in the case justify an extension. The Debtor further asserts
that it has maintained substantial contact with key creditors and
is working diligently to reach the greatest level of consensus
possible in relation to the amended plan and disclosure statement.

Ernst & Young LLP, in San Diego, California, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements for
the year ended Dec. 31, 2015, citing that the Company has recurring
operating losses and has a working capital deficiency. In addition,
the Company has not complied with certain covenants of loan
agreements with its lenders and has significant debt obligations
due in December 2016.  These conditions raise substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

as of the Contribution Date with contribution amounts of $500,000
and $300,000, respectively, and will vest as follows:

                              Vesting       Total
      Vesting Date           Percentage     Vesting

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Alta Mesa is a privately held
company engaged primarily in onshore oil and natural gas
acquisition, exploitation, exploration and production whose focus
is to maximize the profitability of its assets in a safe and
environmentally sound manner.  The Company seeks to maintain a
portfolio of lower risk properties in plays with known resources
where the Company identifies a large inventory of lower risk
drilling, development, and enhanced recovery and exploitation
opportunities.  The Company maximizes the profitability of its
assets by focusing on sound engineering, enhanced geological
techniques including 3-D seismic analysis, and proven drilling,

As of Sept. 30, 2016, Alta Mesa had $780.1 million in total assets,
$1.07 billion in total liabilities and a partners' deficit of
$298.0 million.

Alta Mesa reported a net loss of $131.8 million for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2015, following net income of $99.20 million for the year
ended Dec. 31, 2014.

                          *    *    *

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.


ALTA MESA: Unit Contributes Interest in 24 Producing Wells
----------------------------------------------------------
Alta Mesa Holdings, LP's Class B Limited Partner, High Mesa Inc.,
made a capital contribution to the Company of all of its rights,
title and interest in and to twenty-four producing wellbores with
an effective date of Oct. 1, 2016.

As of the Effective Date, the PV-10, a non-GAAP financial measure,
for the Contributed Wells was approximately $80 million.  The
Contribution was made pursuant to a Contribution Agreement, dated
Dec. 31, 2016, between HMI and the Company.  The Contributed Wells
were purchased by HMI from BCE-Stack Development LLC, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Bayou City Energy Management, LLC, and were
drilled as part of a drilling program under the Joint Development
Agreement, dated Jan. 13, 2016, between BCE, and Oklahoma Energy
Acquisitions, LP, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary.

In connection with the purchase of the Contributed Wells by HMI
from BCE, and in recognition that the Contributed Wells were
previously subject to the Joint Development Agreement, on Dec. 31,
2016, Oklahoma Energy and BCE entered into a Second Amendment to
the Joint Development Agreement.  Pursuant to the terms of the
Second Amendment to JDA, the Contributed Wells have been excluded
from the drilling program and the remaining wellbores and budget
under the drilling program have been reconsolidated and reallocated
into three tranches of twenty wells each.  Under the terms of the
Joint Development Agreement, when certain internal rate of return
thresholds are reached, the working interest of BCE in each well in
which BCE elects to participate is reduced.  As part of the Second
Amendment to JDA, in the event that a 25% internal rate of return
in a tranche is achieved, BCE's working interest would be reduced
to 12.5% rather than 7.5%.

AMWINS GROUP: S&P Affirms 'B+' CCR, Outlook Stable
--------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it affirmed its 'B+' corporate credit
ratings on AmWINS Group, Inc. and AmWINS Group, LLC.  The outlook
is stable.

At the same time, S&P assigned its 'B+' senior secured debt rating
to the company's proposed $1.050 billion senior secured first-lien
term loan and $125 million revolving credit facility.  The '3'
recovery rating on the first lien and revolving debt indicates
S&P's expectation of meaningful (50%-70%; lower half of the range)
recovery in the event of a payment default.

S&P also assigned its 'B-' senior secured debt rating to the
company's proposed $200 million senior secured second-lien term
loan.  The '6' recovery rating on the second lien indicates S&P's
expectation of negligible (0%-10%) recovery of principal in the
event of a payment default.

"The rating affirmation reflects our expectation that the proposed
refinancing will be relatively leverage neutral," said S&P Global
Ratings credit analyst Neal Freedman.  Post refinancing, there will
be a modest increase in total debt of about $100 million, which
will be used to potentially fund an acquisition currently under
letter of intent.  The transaction will eliminate near-term
refinancing risk by extending AmWINS's nearest debt maturity to
2022, compared with its existing capital structure in which the
revolving line of credit matures in 2019, first lien term  loan
facility matures in 2019 and second lien term loan facility matures
in 2020. Pro-forma S&P adjusted leverage post transaction is about
5.3x – commensurate with the rating.

S&P's assessment of AmWINS's business risk profile is fair
reflecting its dominant market position as the largest U.S.
wholesale broker by revenue, its diversified business segments, and
its extensive broker and carrier relationship that fosters stable
margins throughout the insurance underwriting cycle, which S&P
assess at the high end of the category.  The company continues to
demonstrate favorable performance.  S&P expects 2017 revenue to
grow in the mid-to-high single digits through a combination of
organic growth and continued accretive acquisitions.

S&P bases its highly leveraged financial risk profile assessment
largely on AmWINS's credit metrics: leverage in 5.0x-5.5x range and
coverage in 2.5x-3.0x range.  However, S&P believes AmWINS's credit
profile benefits not only from continued earnings momentum but also
from a change in ownership structure.  Recently, in November 2016,
Dragoneer Investment Group (Dragoneer) bought out the remaining
(35%) of private equity firm New Mountain Capital's (New Mountain)
stake in the company. Earlier, in April 2015, Public Sector Pension
Investment Board (PSP Investments) bought out about half of New
Mountain Capital's stake in the company.  As a result Management
owns 35% of the company, PSP owns 30% and Dragoneer owns 35%.
Although we view AmWINS's leverage as already more conservative
than peers', the ownership change gives S&P additional comfort that
the company's credit metrics will remain at these relatively
conservative levels because of the less-aggressive financial policy
and longer investment horizons of Dragoneer and PSP compared with
private equity ownership such as New Mountain.  Although additional
debt financing remains a possibility as the company continues to
execute its growth strategies, S&P expects financial policy to
dictate that the company's debt-to-EBITDA ratio remains below 6x.

S&P assesses AmWINS's liquidity as adequate based on S&P's
expectations that sources will exceed uses by at least 1.2x and
sources will exceed uses of cash even if forecasted EBITDA declines
by 15% during the next 12 months.  AmWINS's liquidity is also
supported by its limited capital expenditure needs (2%-3% of
revenues), sound relationships with banks, satisfactory standing in
the credit markets, and absence of near-term debt maturities.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectation that AmWINS will
continue to grow its revenue base while maintaining healthy and
stable margins and a more-conservative financial policy resulting
from the new ownership structure.  For 2017, S&P expects the
company to have revenue growth in the mid- to high-single digits,
and S&P expects margins to remain steady at about 25% with a
debt-to-EBITDA ratio around 5.0x-5.5x and EBITDA coverage in the
2.5x-3.0x range.  S&P also expects the company's business position
to remain on the higher end of fair, and the company to maintain
its dominant position as the largest U.S. wholesale broker.

In the next 12 months, S&P could lower the current ratings by one
notch if AmWINS's earnings or debt levels result in a
debt-to-EBITDA ratio consistently greater than 6.0x or coverage
consistently below 2.5x.  This could occur if the company's
earnings were to decline as a result of negative growth or
compressed margins, or if the company were to adopt a
more-aggressive financial policy.

Although unlikely, in the next 12 months, S&P could raise the
current ratings by one notch if AmWINS continues its earnings
growth and S&P believes that the company would permanently maintain
debt-to-EBITDA below 5.0x and coverage above 3.0x.  This could
occur through a less-aggressive financial policy coupled with
revenue growth and stable margins.



ARABELLA EXPLORATION: Seeks U.S. Recognition of Cayman Liquidation
------------------------------------------------------------------
Liquidators of Arabella Exploration, Inc., filed a voluntary
petition under Chapter 15 of the Bankruptcy Code in the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas (Case No.
17-40119) on Jan. 8, 2017, to seek recognition of proceedings in
the Cayman Islands.

Arabella Exploration, a Cayman Islands corporation engaged in the
exploration and production of oil and natural gas, is in
liquidation under the Financial Services Division of the Grand
Court of the Cayman Islands as a result of the Grand Court's orders
made pursuant to certain petitions for the Grand Court's
supervision under the provisions of Companies Law of the Cayman
Islands (2013 Revision).

Matthew Wright and Christopher Kennedy, the duly appointed joint
liquidators of Arabella Exploration, request recognition of the
Cayman Liquidation as a foreign main proceeding primarily to obtain
the Bankruptcy Court's assistance in the gathering of the Company's
assets in the United States, including the assets of the Company's
wholly owned subsidiaries, Arabella Exploration LLC and Arabella
Operating, LLC, both of which are Texas limited liability
companies.

Creditor Platinum Long Term Growth VIII, LLC, commenced a winding
up petition against Arabella Exploration on May 19, 2016, on the
grounds that the Company was unable to pay its debts.  The Company
was placed in provisional liquidation as of June 16, 2016.  

The Grand Court issued a Winding Up Order on July 7, 2016, ordering
the Company to be wound up and appointing Messrs. Kennedy and
Wright as joint official liquidators of all of the assets,
undertakings and properties of the Company.

The Liquidators said that since the commencement of the Cayman
Liquidation, substantially all activities associated therewith have
been conducted and overseen by them from the Cayman Islands.  Among
other things, the Liquidators have overseen and filed all necessary
notices, displaced the prior management of the Company and assumed
their duties, and are engaged in the process of investigating and
assessing both the claims of and against the Company and its
creditors and interest holders.

The Chapter 15 case is assigned to Judge Mark X. Mullin.

Forshey & Prostok, LLP serves as counsel to the Petitioners.


ARGON CREDIT: Cash Collateral Use on Interim Basis Allowed
----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Deborah L. Thorne of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Illinois authorized Argon Credit LLC and its
affiliated debtors to use cash collateral on an interim basis
through January 5, 2017.

The approved Budget reflected total cash disbursements of $34,258.
Judge Thorne held, however, that she has not yet made a
determination as whether Raviv Wolf, Gary Zumski, or Peter Ferro
will receive compensation during the interim period.  

The conditions on adequate protection which were stated on the
record during the interim hearings were incorporated to the
Debtor's continued authority to use cash.

A full-text copy of the Second Interim Order, dated January 5,
2017, is available at http://tinyurl.com/jbfvzho

                  About Argon Credit

Argon Credit LLC and Argon X LLC filed chapter 11 petitions (Bankr.
N.D. Ill. Case Nos. 16-39654 and 16-39655) on Dec. 16, 2016.  The
petitions were signed by Raviv Wolfe, chief executive officer.  The
Debtors are represented by Matthew T. Gensburg, Esq., and Philip E.
Groben, Esq., at Dale & Gensburg, P.C.  The cases are assigned to
Judge Timothy A. Barnes.

Argon Credit LLC estimated assets at $1 million to $10 million and
liabilities at $50 million to $100 million.  Argon X LLC estimated
assets at $10 million to $50 million and liabilities at $50 million
to $100 million.


ASURION LLC: Moody's Retains B1 Rating on Repriced $2.7BB Loan
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service maintains a B1 rating on a $2.7 billion
first-lien term loan repriced by Asurion, LLC, an indirect
subsidiary of Lonestar Intermediate Super Holdings, LLC (corporate
family rating B2), which is wholly owned by NEW Asurion Corporation
(NEW Asurion). Moody's expects that the repricing will reduce the
company's interest expense slightly. The rating outlook for the
company is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

NEW Asurion's ratings reflect its dominant position in mobile
protection (MP) distributed through wireless carriers in the US,
its significant market presence in Japan, and its growing presence
in other selected international markets, according to Moody's. NEW
Asurion also has a good position in the US market for extended
service contracts (ESC). The group has a record of efficient
operations, excellent customer service and profitable growth in its
main business segments. These strengths are offset by the group's
high financial leverage, its business concentrations among certain
wireless carriers and retailers, and slowing growth prospects in
the relatively mature US ESC market. Also, risk management becomes
a greater challenge as the group expands internationally.

NEW Asurion has improved its profitability over the past couple of
years through healthy revenue growth in US and international MP,
along with cost savings from a prior restructuring program. Moody's
expects the group to remain a global leader in MP.

NEW Asurion has total borrowings of about $8 billion, resulting in
a debt-to-EBITDA ratio in the range of 6.5x-7x and (EBITDA - capex)
coverage of interest of about 2x, per Moody's calculations, which
incorporate accounting adjustments for operating leases and
noncontrolling interest expense. NEW Asurion's financial leverage
is somewhat high for the single-B rating category, but Moody's
expects the company to reduce it gradually through EBITDA growth
and modest amortization of first-lien term loans.

Factors that could lead to an upgrade of NEW Asurion's ratings
include: (i) debt-to-EBITDA ratio below 6x, (ii) (EBITDA - capex)
coverage of interest exceeding 2.5x, (iii) free-cash-flow-to-debt
ratio above 6%, and (iv) EBITDA margins exceeding 20%.

Factors that could lead to a rating downgrade include: (i)
debt-to-EBITDA ratio above 7x, (ii) (EBITDA - capex) coverage of
interest below 1.5x, (iii) free-cash-flow-to-debt ratio below 3%,
or (iv) EBITDA margins below 15%.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Insurance
Brokers and Service Companies published in December 2015. Please
see the Rating Methodologies page on www.moodys.com for a copy of
this methodology.

Based in Nashville, Tennessee, NEW Asurion is a leading provider of
protection programs for wireless devices and consumer electronics
both domestically and internationally. NEW Asurion is owned by a
consortium of private equity firms, other institutional investors
and company founders and managers.

BERRY PLASTICS: Moody's Confirms B1 CFR & Rates New Term Loan Ba3
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service confirmed the B1 Corporate Family Rating
and B1-PD Probability of Default Rating of Berry Plastics Group,
Inc.

Moody's also confirmed the Ba3 existing First Lien Senior Secured
Term Loans and B3 existing Second Priority Senior Secured Notes of
Berry Plastics Corporation, a subsidiary of Berry Plastics Group,
Inc. Moody's assigned a Ba3 rating to the proposed $500 million
First Lien Senior Secured Term Loan due January 2024. The ratings
outlook is stable.

The proceeds from the loan will be used to acquire AEP Industries
("AEP"), partially repay existing Term Loan debt, and pay fees and
expenses associated with the transaction. This concludes the review
for possible downgrade initiated on August 25, 2016 when Berry
announced that it had offered to acquire AEP in a cash and stock
transaction.

Moody's took the following actions:

Berry Plastics Group, Inc.

Confirmed Corporate Family Rating, B1

Confirmed Probability of Default Rating, B1-PD

Affirmed Speculative Grade Liquidity, SGL-2

Berry Plastics Corporation

Confirmed First Lien Senior Secured Term Loans, Ba3 (LGD3)

Confirmed Second Priority Senior Secured Notes, B3 (LGD5)

Assigned $500 million First Lien Senior Secured Term Loan due
January 2024, Ba3 (LGD3)

The ratings outlook is stable.

The ratings are subject the transaction closing as proposed and the
receipt and review of the final documentation.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The confirmation of the rating reflects continued good pro forma
free cash flow generation, expected benefits of completed and
ongoing cost saving initiatives and Berry's commitment to dedicate
all free cash flow to debt reduction. The confirmation also
reflects benefits from the AEP acquisition including anticipated
synergies and an increase in the exposure to the engineered
materials end markets. Pro forma leverage is approximately neutral
at 5.0x (Moody's adj Total debt / Adj EBITDA).

Berry's B1 Corporate Family Rating reflects the company's exposure
to more cyclical end markets, certain weaknesses in contract
structures with customers and a high percentage of commodity
products. The rating also reflects the stretched credit metrics pro
forma for the AEP acquisition and the fragmented and competitive
industry structure.

Strengths in Berry's competitive profile include its scale,
concentration of sales in relatively more stable end markets and
good liquidity. The company's strengths also include a strong
competitive position in rigid plastic containers and continued
focus on producing higher margin products and pruning lower margin
business.

The ratings outlook is stable. The stable outlook is predicated on
an expectation of an improvement in operating results from various
cost saving initiatives and acquisitions as well as the company's
pledge to direct all free cash flow to debt reduction.

The ratings could be upgraded if the company sustainably improves
credit metrics within the context of a stable operating and
competitive environment while maintaining good liquidity. An
upgrade would also be dependent upon less aggressive financial and
acquisition policies as well as success in integrating the recent
acquisition. Specifically, the ratings could be upgraded if funds
from operations to debt increases above 13%, debt to EBITDA
declines below 4.7 times, and/or EBITDA to interest expense remains
above 4.25 times.

The rating could be downgraded if there is deterioration in the
credit metrics, liquidity or the operating and competitive
environment. Additional debt financed acquisitions, excessive
acquisitions (regardless of financing) and/or a move to a more
aggressive financial profile could also prompt a downgrade.
Specifically, the ratings could be downgraded if funds from
operations to debt decreases below 10%, debt to EBITDA increases
above 5.5 times, and/or EBITDA to interest expense decreases below
3.5 times.

Based in Evansville, Indiana, Berry Plastics Group is a
manufacturer of plastic packaging products, serving customers in
the food and beverage, healthcare, household chemicals, personal
care, home improvement, and other industries. The company reports
in three segments including Consumer Packaging, Health, Hygiene &
Specialties, and Engineered Materials (pro forma approximately 37%,
30% and 34% of sales respectively). Berry has manufacturing and
distribution centers in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Belgium,
Australia, Germany, Brazil, Malaysia, and India. The North American
operation generates approximately 84% of the company's pro forma
net sales. Polypropylene and polyethylene account for the majority
of plastic resin purchases. Net sales for the twelve months ended
October 1, 2016 totaled approximately $6.5 billion.

---------------------------------------------------------------
C&J Energy Services, Inc. (as successor to C&J Energy Services Ltd.
("Legacy C&J"), and together with its subsidiaries, "C&J" or the
"Company") disclosed that effective as of January 6, 2017, the
Company has successfully completed its financial restructuring and
emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy, having satisfied all of the
conditions to the effectiveness of its plan of reorganization (the
"Plan").  Through this financial restructuring, C&J has
significantly improved its financial position by eliminating
approximately $1.4 billion of debt from its balance sheet, as well
as more than $80 million of annual interest expense.

President and Chief Executive Officer Don Gawick commented, "This
is truly a great day for C&J Energy Services.  We are so pleased to
be emerging from Chapter 11 and moving forward with a stronger
financial foundation.  I would like to thank our lenders, the
members of our outgoing board of directors, and all the financial,
legal and restructuring advisors who worked so diligently to
achieve the successful conclusion of the restructuring process.
The Company's de-levered balance sheet and enhanced liquidity
position is an outstanding resolution for our stakeholders, and
strongly positions C&J to expand our business as the commodity
price environment improves and the industry rebounds.  I would also
like to thank our customers and vendors for their continued loyalty
and support to the Company throughout the restructuring process.

"Most importantly, I would like to thank all of our employees for
their continued hard work, sacrifice and dedication to the Company.
We are fortunate to have the best employees in the industry, and
the successful and efficient completion of this financial
restructuring is a testament to their hard work.  Throughout the
process, we continued to operate at the highest standards of safety
and service quality.  I can't thank them enough for all of their
efforts to better position C&J for the future.  Our employees will
continue to be the backbone of our long-term success as we begin
C&J's next chapter."

Effective January 6, 2017, the Company has entered into a new $100
million revolving credit facility and paid off outstanding amounts
under its prior debtor-in-possession facility with proceeds from a
$200 million equity rights offering.  Combining its cash balance
after emergence with the available borrowing capacity under the new
credit facility, the Company is exiting its restructuring with over
$220 million of total liquidity.

New Board of Directors

In accordance with the Plan, a newly constituted Board of Directors
(the "Board") was appointed on Jan. 6, consisting of Patrick Murray
(Chairman), Stuart Brightman, John Kennedy, Steven Mueller, Michael
Roemer and Michael Zawadzki, in addition to Don Gawick, C&J's
President and Chief Executive Officer.  Additional information
about the Company's new directors may be found on C&J's website at
www.cjenergy.com.

Mr. Gawick commented, "I am honored to serve on the new Board of
Directors with such a distinguished group of directors whose
diverse knowledge and experience will serve our Company well for
many years to come.  I am confident that each of our new directors
will bring a fresh perspective to our organization, and we will all
benefit from their guidance as we embark on the next chapter for
C&J."    

Issuance of New Securities

Effective immediately, Legacy C&J common stock will be cancelled
pursuant to the Plan.  The Company issued seven-year warrants to
former holders of Legacy C&J common stock, based on their pro rata
share of Legacy C&J common stock as of January 6, 2017, exercisable
for up to an aggregate of 2% of the Company's new common stock (the
"New Common Stock") at a strike price of $1.55 billion.

C&J will have approximately 55.5 million shares of New Common Stock
outstanding after the reorganization, which will be issued to
certain holders of Legacy C&J's secured debt claim in accordance
with the debt-for-equity conversion provisions of the Plan, a
rights offering and a backstop commitment agreement.

The Company also expects to issue additional seven-year warrants to
a claims representative for the benefit of holders of Legacy C&J
unsecured creditor claims, exercisable for up to an aggregate of 4%
of New Common Stock at a strike price of $1.55 billion.

The New Common Stock and the warrants will not be traded on a
national securities exchange, and the Company intends to pursue a
listing on a national securities exchange as soon as reasonably
practicable.  C&J will continue to file Exchange Act reports with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Evercore acted as financial advisor, AlixPartners LLP acted as
restructuring advisor, and Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson
LLP, Kirkland & Ellis LLP and Loeb & Loeb LLP served as legal
counsel to the Company.

Moelis & Company LLC and FTI Consulting acted as financial
advisors, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP served as legal counsel to the
administrative agent and certain holders of Legacy C&J secured
debt, and Diamond McCarthy LLP acted as Texas local counsel.

Adoption of Stockholder Rights Plan

C&J also on Jan. 6 disclosed that the Board has adopted a
stockholder rights plan ("Rights Plan"), declaring a dividend of
one preferred stock purchase right (each a "Right") for each
outstanding share of the Company's New Common Stock.  The Rights
Plan is designed to reduce the likelihood that a potential acquirer
would gain control of the Company by open market accumulation or
other coercive takeover tactics without paying a premium for all of
the Company's New Common Stock.

Under the Rights Plan, the Rights will be distributed as a dividend
at the rate of one Right for each share of New Common Stock held by
stockholders of record at the close of business on January 6, 2017.
Each Right will entitle stockholders to buy, upon occurrence of
certain events, one one-hundredth of a share of a new series of
participating preferred stock at an exercise price of $80.00.

The Rights generally will be exercisable only if a person or group
acquires beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the Company's New
Common Stock, or commences a tender or exchange offer that, upon
consummation, would result in a person or group owning 15% or more
of the Company's New Common Stock, subject to certain exceptions,
including that for certain stockholders specified in the Rights
Plan, the applicable beneficial ownership is 35% or more of the
Company's New Common Stock.

Under certain circumstances the new Rights are redeemable at a
price of $0.0001 per Right.  Unless earlier exchanged, redeemed,
amended or exercised, the Rights will expire on January 6, 2020.

CHILDREN'S OPPORTUNITY: Wants to Use Retail Capital Cash Collateral
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Children's Opportunity Center, Inc. seeks authority from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey to use cash
collateral of Retail Capital LLC d/b/a Credibly.

The Debtor asserts that an immediate need exists for it to use its
revenues in order to resume its operations as a
debtor-in-possession. The Debtor further asserts that without the
use of such funds, it will be unable to meet its operating
expenses.  The Debtor's three-month budget for the period January
1, 2017 through March 31, 2017, reflects operating expenses in an
aggregate sum of $154,665.

The Debtor relates that it was forced to file its bankruptcy
petition as a result of outstanding amounts owed to various taxing
authorities, which resulted in pre-petition levies against all
amounts owed to Debtor by the State of New Jersey Dept. of Children
and Families, which is the sole source of Debtor's revenue.  The
Debtor asserts that it will be able to resume full-scale operations
immediately upon the Court's authorization to its use of cash
collateral
        
The Debtor is indebted to Retail Capital LLC in the amount of
approximately $26,977 in principal as of the Petition Date, secured
by the Debtor's assets, including, but not limited to, accounting,
inventory and accounts receivable.

The Debtor proposes to grant Retail Capital a replacement lien on
all of Debtor's unencumbered post-petition assets.  In addition,
the Debtor will make monthly adequate protection payments to Retail
Capital in the amount of $164 per business day for the duration of
the cash collateral use, which payments will begin to accrue as of
the date of the entry of the Order and payments will begin to be
made upon Debtor's receipt of its January receivable from the State
of New Jersey, Departments of Children and Families.

DEBORAH VINSON: Sale of New Orleans Property for $1.9M Approved

A hearing on the Motion was held on Jan. 4, 2017.

On the sale closing, the St. Charles Property will be transferred
to the Buyers free and clear of all liens, mortgages, privileges,
claims, interests and other encumbrances, regardless of whether
such claims, interests and encumbrances are paid in full by the
Debtor.

In the absence of a stay pending an appeal of the Order, in the
event the Debtor and the Buyers elect to consummate the
transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement at any time
subsequent to the entry of the Order, then with respect to the
transactions approved and authorized herein, the Buyers, as
purchasers in good faith within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. Section
363(m), will be entitled to the protections of Section 363(m) of
the Bankruptcy Code in the event the Order or any authorization
contained is reversed or modified on appeal.

Payment of the sales proceeds derived from the St. Charles Property
to the holders of valid mortgages encumbering the St. Charles
Property will be made to such mortgage holders within 2 days of the
date of the closing of the sale or within 2 days of the date such
mortgage holder provides to the Debtor, in writing, a sale date
payoff balance for the mortgage obligation/indebtedness of the
Debtor secured thereby, whichever 2-day period is later, provided,
however, that if the Debtor notifies such mortgage holder within 2
days of the later period of a dispute with respect to its claim or
the amount thereof, payment of the sales proceeds to such notified
mortgage holder will be withheld pending an agreement by and
between the Debtor and such notified mortgage holder or further
order of the Court.

DOLPHIN DIGITAL: Buys 25% Remaining Membership Interests of Unit
----------------------------------------------------------------
Dolphin Digital Media, Inc. and KCF Investments, LLC, on Dec. 29,
2016, entered into (i) a purchase agreement pursuant to which the
Company purchased from KCF the remaining 25% outstanding membership
interests of Dolphin Kids Club, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company,
in exchange for the issuance of a common stock purchase warrant
exercisable for 600,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par
value $0.015 and (ii) a debt exchange agreement pursuant to which
the Company exchanged an aggregate principal amount of $6,470,990
owing under certain loan and security agreements in exchange for
the issuance of a common stock purchase warrant exercisable for
1,570,000 shares of Common Stock.  In connection with the
agreements, the Company and KCF entered into a Common Stock
Purchase Warrant "J" Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed
to issue to KCF an aggregate of up to 2,170,000 shares of Common
Stock (as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Warrant "J"
Agreement) with an initial exercise price of $0.015 per share of
Common Stock, and an expiration date of
Dec. 29, 2020.

On Dec. 29, 2016, the Company and BBCF 2011, LLC, an affiliate of
KCF, entered into a termination agreement pursuant to which the
parties agreed to terminate all of BBCF's rights to profit
distributions from Dolphin Digital Studios, Inc., a subsidiary of
the Company, arising under equity finance agreements dated
March 14, 2011, and June 29, 2011, in exchange for the issuance of
a common stock purchase warrant exercisable for 170,000 shares of
Common Stock.  In connection with the termination agreement, the
Company and BBCF entered into a Common Stock Purchase Warrant "K"
Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to BBCF up
to 170,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (as adjusted from
time to time as provided in the Warrant "K" Agreement) with an
initial exercise price of $0.015 per share of Common Stock and an
expiration date of Dec. 29, 2020.

Each of the Series "J" Warrant and the Series "K" Warrant contains
provisions that, until 15 days before the expiration date, the
holder may not exercise the warrant on any date for any number of
shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i)
the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the
holder and its affiliates on that date and (ii) the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrant,
which would result in beneficial ownership by the holder and its
affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock on such date.  In addition, both the Series "J" Warrant and

DR HORTON: Moody's Hikes Unsec. Notes Rating From Ba1
-----------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service upgraded the rating of the senior
unsecured notes of D.R. Horton, Inc. to Baa3 from Ba1. Horton
becomes the second homebuilder to attain a Moody's investment grade
rating out of 24 that are publicly rated and the first of the
homebuilder class of 'fallen angels' to regain that rating. The
rating outlook is stable.

The upgrade reflects the company's steady and successful execution
of its strategy of buying proportionately less land and optioning
more land, reducing its years' supply of land, foregoing an active
shareholder enhancement program, using a portion of excess cash
flow for debt repayment, and allowing the rate of equity retention
to exceed the expansion in debt capital. As a result, debt leverage
has improved from the high of about 57% experienced during the
depths of the homebuilding recession to the lowest in the industry,
at a Moody's-adjusted 30% as of September 30, 2016. Moody's expects
debt leverage to remain nicely below 40% going forward.

The following rating actions were taken:

Senior unsecured notes upgraded to Baa3 from Ba1/LGD4

Corporate Family Rating ("CFR") of Ba1 withdrawn

Probability of Default Rating ("PDR") of Ba1-PD withdrawn

Speculative Grade Liquidity rating ("SGL") of SGL-2 withdrawn

Rating Outlook, remains Stable.

Note: the CFR, PDR, and SGL were withdrawn because they are ratings
assigned to non-investment grade companies.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Baa3 rating acknowledges the company's industry-leading debt
leverage, impressive cash flow generating ability, strong operating
performance, success at integrating prior acquisitions, large
equity base, geographic and product diversity, leading share
position in many of the markets it serves, and tight cost
controls.

At the same time, the ratings acknowledge that Horton engages in
speculative home construction to a greater extent than most of its
peers. While the company has proven to be exceptionally agile in
managing these spec exposures, the possibility remains that it
could be caught short with heavy unsold inventory if a sudden and
very sharp downturn were to occur. In addition, while Horton is
emphasizing turnover and returns over gross margins, its return on
assets still lags far behind the highs reached last cycle.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Horton's
homebuilding debt leverage will remain well below the 40% level for
at least the next two years while other key credit metrics will
continue to improve.

Horton's liquidity position is quite strong, bolstered by an
unrestricted cash position of $1.3 billion as of September 30,
2016, a $975 million senior unsecured revolver that had zero drawn
as of the same date, positive cash flow generation, and significant
headroom in its bank covenants. As a minor offset, however, it does
not possess easily and quickly monetizable assets, such as
receivables. In addition, Horton's debt maturities are all bunched
into the next seven years.

Going forward, the ratings could benefit from the company's
lowering of its stated debt leverage target (gross homebuilding
debt to book capitalization) to 25% from "below 40%" and from its
operating at or below this newly stated target for more than one
year while other key metrics -- interest coverage, ROA, and gross
margins -- continue to strengthen and liquidity remains robust.

The ratings would be pressured if Moody's were to sense that
Horton's apparent commitment to maintaining a conservative
financial policy was ebbing or that its policy of positioning
itself for an eventual downturn was being abandoned. Ratings could
also suffer by a rise in debt leverage to 35%; if earnings turned
negative for two or more quarters; if industry conditions started
building such that Moody's could anticipate a new round of major
impairment charges looming; if liquidity, as measured by the sum of
unrestricted cash and revolver availability, were to fall below
$750 million; if EBIT coverage of interest fell below 7x; and/or
the other key financial metrics began slipping noticeably.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Homebuilding
And Property Development Industry" published in April 2015.

Headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas, Horton is the largest and most
geographically diversified homebuilder in the United States. The
company has a presence in 26 states and 78 markets and generates
the bulk of its revenues from homebuilding operations that focus on
the construction and sale of single-family detached homes. In
fiscal 2016, which ended September 30, 2016, the company generated
homebuilding revenues of $11.9 billion and consolidated net income
of $886 million.

ENTERGY CORP: Moody's Hikes Preferred Stock Rating From Ba1
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service placed the ratings of Entergy Corporation
under review for upgrade. The review is prompted by the
announcement that Entergy will retire the Indian Point nuclear
facility by 2021.

At the same time, Moody's upgraded the ratings of Entergy
Mississippi Inc. (EMI; long-term issuer rating to Baa1 from Baa2),
due to improvements made to its formula rate plan (FRP) and
expectations for cash flow to debt ratios to be around 20% through
2019. The outlook for EMI is stable.

Outlook Actions:

Issuer: Entergy Corporation

Outlook, Changed To Rating Under Review From Positive

Issuer: Entergy Mississippi, Inc.

Outlook, Changed To Stable From Positive

RATINGS RATIONALE

"Entergy's business risk is falling thanks to the steady exit from
the higher-risk merchant nuclear business" said Ryan Wobbrock, Vice
President -- Senior Analyst.

The review for upgrade will assess Entergy's sustainable financial
profile as the planned retirement for Indian Point, as well as
other merchant generating facilities, crystalizes future
liabilities, including costs associated with its nuclear
sustainability plan. The review will also focus on attaining better
clarity around Entergy's sizeable deferred tax position and its
overall tax strategies in light of potential new Federal tax
reforms. In addition, the review will focus on how any potential
tax reforms impact the cash flow of Entergy's utility
subsidiaries.

Entergy's $1.5 billion nuclear sustainability plan will increase
costs at the same time that its merchant business loses cash and
holding company leverage increases. At this time, Entergy exhibits
enough financial cushion to absorb these costs and maintain its
adjusted cash flow to debt ratio in the mid-teen's percent range;
however, future cash flow could be impaired if the Federal
government were to significantly lower the corporate tax rate. A
lower Federal tax rate would revalue over $8 billion of Entergy's
deferred tax liabilities and reduce the magnitude of future cash
flow contributions from deferred taxes.

EMI's longstanding FRP has evidenced the ability to produce
consistently strong cash flow to debt metrics, even when excluding
the benefits from deferred taxes. As part of EMI's last FRP filing
and evaluation report, the company can now benefit from cost
adjustments to transmission and distribution investments and
certain operating costs through annual filings. This improved cost
recovery, coupled with its 9.89% allowed ROE bandwidth floor,
should help the utility to maintain cash flow to debt ratios
approaching 20% for the next three years.

Entergy's credit profile is underpinned by formulaic rate making at
its three largest utilities and supportive cost recovery provisions
across its five state regulatory jurisdictions. FRPs allow for a
high degree of visibility into regulatory proceedings, which in
turn produces stable cash flow production and financial
performance. In the last year, Entergy's cost recovery has improved
due to the implementation of a FRP in Arkansas, the incorporation
of forward-looking cost recovery provisions in Mississippi and
regulatory approvals to increase utility assets and revenue in New
Orleans. These enhancements support stronger cash flow generation
and should help Entergy to produce consolidated cash flow to debt
in the mid-teen's on an ongoing basis.

EMI's exposure to Entergy's nuclear improvement program comes from
its contractual obligation to purchase power from the Grand Gulf
Nuclear facility, of which EMI is a 33% owner, along with three
affiliate utilities. Given the nature of these shared costs and
magnitude of exposure for EMI, Moody's believes that the company
can absorb these, while maintaining cash flow to debt in the
high-teen's percentage range -- a level that is appropriate for a
Baa1 vertically integrated utility.

Factors that Could Lead to an Upgrade

Entergy could be upgraded to Baa2 if its utilities continue to
receive ample cost recovery, if it makes progress in retiring
merchant nuclear plants as planned, and if it is able to produce
cash flow to debt in the mid-teen's percent range on an ongoing
basis, excluding temporary tax benefits.

EMI could be upgraded to A3 if it generates sustainable cash flow
to debt approaching 25% and retains its transparent and predictable
regulatory framework.

Factors that Could Lead to an Downgrade

Entergy could be downgraded if the stability and predictability of
its key regulatory environments were to decrease, if its tolerance
for financial risk increased (e.g., holding company debt above 25%
of consolidated debt) or if it were to encounter unforeseen
operating or financial difficulties with its nuclear business.
Failure to execute the planned retirement of its nuclear generation
facilities could also weigh on the rating.

EMI could be downgraded if regulatory support from the Mississippi
Public Service Commission were to decline or if significant costs
were unable to be recovered. Furthermore, if its financial profile
were to drop cash flow to debt levels below the high-teen's, its
rating could be pressured downward.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Regulated
Electric and Gas Utilities" published in December 2013.

FARR ENTERPRISES: Scotts Seek to Enjoin Use of Cash Collateral
--------------------------------------------------------------
Reid and Patsy Scott ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of North Carolina to enjoin Farr Enterprises, Inc. from
continued use of cash collateral and providing adequate protection.


The Scotts relate that the current Chapter 11 proceeding is the
Debtor's second Chapter 11 filing, with the prior filing on or
about February 8, 2010, under Western District of North Carolina
Case No. 10-40076, which resulted in a confirmed Chapter 11 Plan of
Reorganization.

The Scotts further relate that pursuant to the terms of the Prior
Plan, the Scott Obligation was recapitalized and amortized over a
period of 15 years at 7% interest per annum and payable in equal
monthly installments of $3,415.  

The Scotts further relate that the Debtor defaulted in repayment of
the Scott Obligation upon the occurrence of the maturity date,
causing the Scotts to commence foreclosure of their Deed of Trust
in Burke County, North Carolina File No. 16-SP-22, in which
foreclosure a hearing was held, Order of Sale entered, and a sale
date set for July 5, 2016, but the sale was stayed by the filing of
the current bankruptcy case.

According to the Debtor's Schedules and Statements, the Debtor's
primary assets consisted of real property in Burke County, North
Carolina valued by the Debtor at $1,900,000 and personal property
valued by the Debtor in the total sum of $210,412, as of the
Petition Date.

The Scotts assert that as of the Petition Date, the Scott
Obligation was in the amount of $314,578, including principal in
the amount of $295,726, interest in the amount of $17,736, and fees
and costs in the amount of $1,116.  Currently, the balance due on
the Scott Obligation has increased to approximately $325,000,
exclusive of post-petition attorneys' fees and costs.

Pursuant to the Scott Loan Documents, the Scott Obligation is
secured by a second lien mortgage lien and security interest
encumbering land and improvements located at 9066 Camp Firestone
Drive, Nebo, North Carolina 28761, together with a first lien on
rents, issues, and profits generated from the same.

The Scotts contend that the Debtor has not made any payment toward
the Scott Obligation for at least sixteen months. The Scotts
believe that the Debtor has collected Rents from the Petition Date
to November 30, 2016 in the total sum of $67,053, as listed on the
Debtor's monthly reports, which Rents constitute cash collateral
securing the Scott Obligation, and which cash collateral the Debtor
has been using since the Petition Date in the operation of its
business and payment of debts, including debts owed to the Small
Business Administration which is subordinate to the lien securing
the Scott Obligation, without permission from them or order of the
Court.

The Scotts tell the Court that they are enjoined from foreclosing
on their lien or encumbrance due to the stay imposed by the
Debtor's bankruptcy filing.  The Scotts are also unaware whether
the Mortgaged Property is adequately insured for hazard or other
loss with the Scotts named as a mortgagee under said policy.  

The Scotts want the Court to require the Debtor to segregate the
cash collateral, particularly the Rents, and to account for the
same and to remit the same to the Scotts as they have not and do
not consent to the use of such cash collateral by the Debtor.

A hearing on the motion is scheduled on January 27, 2017, at 10:30
a.m.

GLYECO INC: Signs Deals to Acquire WEBA and RS&T
------------------------------------------------
GlyEco, Inc., announced agreements to acquire WEBA Technology
Corp., a privately-owned company that develops, manufactures and
markets additive packages for the antifreeze/coolant, gas patch
coolants and heat transfer industries; and Recovery Solutions &
Technologies Inc., a privately-owned company involved in the
development and commercialization of glycol recovery technology.
In addition, RS&T has signed an agreement to purchase certain
glycol distillation assets from Union Carbide Corporation, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The Dow Chemical Company, at Institute,
West Virginia, with the transaction expected to close on Dec. 28,
2016, subject to customary closing conditions.

The combination of GlyEco, WEBA, and RS&T brings together leading,
complementary components to form a leading provider of vertically
integrated glycol solutions, well positioned to shape the future of
glycol production, process technology, and product delivery.  The
combined Company will manage a broad continuum of ethylene glycol
solutions, including retail direct delivery and pick-up, ASTM E1177
Type EG-1 engine coolant grade ethylene glycol production, and the
ability to formulate unique additive products to produce finished
fluids that meet ASTM and industry specifications.

Mr. Ian Rhodes, chief executive officer and president said, "At
GlyEco, we have been actively advancing our glycol-focused
strategies while WEBA has been diversifying and building its
national additive product lines for making antifreeze/coolant for
light-duty automotive to heavy-duty diesel vehicles, and
water/glycol heat transfer fluids for HVAC heating and air
conditioning systems.  Our two organizations complement each other
in a way few others could, and the glycol distillation assets RS&T
will acquire will allow us to become the first vertically
integrated glycol solutions provider in North America."

Mr. Rhodes continued, "This acquisition strategy will accelerate
our collective ability to positively impact ethylene glycol
production and delivery across the country.  The transaction and
related human resources will significantly increase our ability to
implement and improve on our patented technology and better service
our expanding client relationships in our direct delivery, bulk,
and service verticals.  Our Company competes in a highly-fragmented
marketplace and we will now have the critical first mover advantage
to capitalize on reselling opportunities across our various
offerings, and generate significant value for our shareholders.  We
are excited for the future and look forward to the opportunity to
combine the resources of these great companies."

The Company expects to finance these transactions with cash on hand
and debt, including a private placement of notes.

HEARTHSIDE GROUP: Moody's Rates Repriced 1st Lien Loan 'B1'
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B1 rating to Hearthside Group
Holdings, LLC's repriced first lien term loan which was also
upsized to $601 million. Proceeds will be used to refinance its
existing, B1 rated $551 million term loan and repay approximately
$50 million outstanding on the revolving credit facility.
Hearthside expects that the lower interest rate on the term loan
will lower total interest costs. It is effecting this refinancing
through an amendment to its existing credit facility. Moody's said
in a separate issuer comment that the revisions are credit positive
but that the ratings and stable outlook remain unchanged.

The following rating was assigned:

  $601 million first lien term loan at B1 (LGD 3)

The following ratings are unchanged:

  Corporate Family Rating at B2

  Probability of Default Rating at B2-PD

  $100 million first lien revolving credit facility at B1 (LGD 3)

  $300 million senior unsecured notes due 2022 at Caa1 (LGD 5)

The outlook on all ratings is stable.

Hearthside's $100 million first lien revolving credit facility and
$601 million first lien term loan are rated B1 (LGD 3), one notch
above the B2 Corporate Family Rating. This reflects their priority
position in the capital structure to a meaningful amount of
unsecured debt. The revolver and term loan are guaranteed by
Hearthside's parent (H-Food Holdings, LLC) and Hearthside's wholly
owned domestic restricted subsidiaries. Both of these facilities
are secured on a first lien basis by substantially all the assets
of the borrower and guarantors.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Hearthside Group Holdings LLC's B2 Corporate Family Rating reflects
the company's high financial leverage, significant customer
concentration, and thin operating margins. The rating also reflects
event risk, such as leveraged acquisitions and aggressive
shareholder returns, given Hearthside's financial sponsor
ownership. At the same time the rating reflects the company's
leading position as a grain-based contract manufacturer and
packager of food products. The company has longstanding
relationships with leading US food companies, very good liquidity,
and limited commodity exposure due to pass-through cost
arrangements.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Hearthside's
leverage will remain high over the next twelve to eighteen months
and that the company will maintain very good liquidity.

Ratings could be upgraded if debt to EBITDA is sustained below 5.0
times, RCF to net debt approaches 15%, and liquidity remains very
good.

Ratings could be downgraded if the company losses a larger customer
or aggressively finances acquisitions or dividends through debt
issuance. The ratings could also be downgraded if debt to EBITDA is
sustained in the high six times range or EBITA margins fall below
5%.

Hearthside Group Holdings LLC, with approximately $1.2 billion in
sales, is a contract manufacturer and packager of packaged food
products in North America. It supplies companies such as General
Mills, Kellogg's, Kraft, PepsiCo, and Mondelez. The company is
owned by affiliates of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and Vestar
Capital Partners.


HIGHLANDS OF DYERSBURG: Permitted to Use Cash Until Dec. 29
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge David S. Kennedy of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of Tennessee authorized The Highlands of Memphis, LLC, The
Highlands of Dyersburg, LLC, and Regional Healthcare Services, LLC
to use cash collateral for the interim period ending December 29,
2016, or until a further interim order or a final order is
entered.

Judge Kennedy acknowledged the Debtors' need for immediate use of
cash collateral in order to operate their on-going businesses and
to fund interim critical cash requirements, including, payment of
wages, maintenance expenses, utility expenses, rent and insurance
premiums related to the facility, until such time as a final
hearing on its use of cash collateral may be conducted.

The approved budget provides for postpetition expenses in the
approximate amount of $39,343 for Memphis and $34,317 for
Dyersburg, including payroll expenses in the aggregate amount of
$316,000.

Judge Kennedy directed the Debtors to provide invoices for each
expense, other than payroll, to Capital Finance and FC Highlands at
least two business days before such proposed payment, and for
payroll, the Debtors were directed provide a list of employees and
the amounts to be paid to each to Capital Finance and FC Highlands
before payroll is to be funded.

Capital Finance and FC Highlands, and its assigns, were granted
replacement, postpetition security interests in and liens upon all
of the Debtors' assets of the same validity, extent, priority, and
type in which they hold prepetition liens or security interests.

Each Debtor was directed to continue using and maintaining, during
the Interim Period, the existing cash management systems that the
Debtors had established with Capital Finance. Capital Finance was
directed to provide the Debtors with statements and/or an
accounting of such accounts from the Petition Date through December
31, 2016, on or before January 15, 2017.

As a condition precedent to the use of any cash collateral, FC
Highlands will immediately pay cash in the amount of $384,660 for
the sole benefit of Capital Finance into a restricted depository
account at CFG Community Bank, which will be held in escrow, and be
released and paid over to Capital Finance in the amount of any
unpaid balance of the Capital Finance Loan Facility as of June 30,
2017.

increase the efficiency of the security screening process.  The
Implant Sciences team developed state-of-the-art trace detection
technologies that are market-ready and fill a critical gap in our
sensor portfolio," added Tom Ripp, President of L3 Security &

both strong domain expertise coupled with deep technical
capabilities focused on innovative trace solutions, and we look

IRENE STACY: Selling Butler Property for $700K
----------------------------------------------
Irene Stacy Community Mental Health Center asks the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania to authorize the
sale of real property situate in Butler County, Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, located at 112 Hillvue Drive, Butler, Pennsylvania,
for $700,000 to the successful purchaser at the sale hearing.

Concurrently with the Motion, the Debtor filed a Motion to (i)
Approve the Settlement Agreement Between the Debtor and NexTier
Bank, N.A. Pursuant to Rule 9019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy
Procedure, and (ii) Dismiss the Debtor’s Bankruptcy Case Pursuant
to Section 1112(b) of the Bankruptcy Code ("Settlement Motion".

If the Hillvue Property sells pursuant to the Motion, the proceeds
of the sale will be distributed and utilized pursuant the order
approving the sale (or a subsequent order).  In the event that the
Hillvue Property is not sold pursuant to the Motion, the Debtor and
NexTier Bank, N.A. have agreed to the terms in the Settlement
Motion to pay administrative expense claims and satisfy all claims
of NexTier against the Debtor.

The Debtor scheduled the Hillvue Property at $1,458,000.  While the
Debtor has previously received offers and expressions of interest
in the Hillvue Property, none of these offers has resulted in a
sale approval by the Court.  The Hillvue Property is currently
listed for sale at $850,000 and has been actively marketed by the
listing agents.  The last pending expression of interest was in an
amount far less than the balance of the NexTier debt and is not
acceptable to neither the Debtor nor NexTier.

In connection with a negotiated settlement of the issues between
the debtor and NexTier, the parties have agreed to expose the
Hillvue Property to this sale in a final effort to have it sell for
an acceptable amount prior to the delivery a deed in lieu of
foreclosure to NexTier under the Settlement Motion.

The respondents which may hold mortgages, liens, claims,
encumbrances or an interest against the Hillvue Property are: (i)
NexTier Bank, N.A; (ii) Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Office of
Attorney General; (iii) Butler County Human Services; (iv) Butler
Area Sewer Authority; (v) Southwestern Pennsylvania Human Services,
Inc.; and (vi) XTO Energy, Inc.

The identification of a party as a lien holder and/or interest
holder, including but not limited to being scheduled as the holder
of a lien, statutory, judicial or consensual, is without prejudice
to the rights of the Debtor and/or any party in interest to
challenge the validity, extent, and/or priority thereof, and/or to
challenge the claim as to the debt, and/or the amount alleged due
and owing thereon.

The Debtor believes that it is in the best interest of the Debtor's
estate and creditors to sell the Hillvue Property for $700,000,
which is an amount agreed upon by the Debtor and NexTier as
sufficient to satisfy all administrative expense claims and all
claims of NexTier against the Debtor.

As such, the Debtor expects that the first bid at the auction will
be $700,000, except to the extent that NexTier agrees to accept a
lower amount and a lower payout in satisfaction of its secured
claim.

The sale is conditioned, inter alia, on the entry by the Court of a
final, nonappealable Sale Order.

The sale of the Hillvue Property will be in "as is, where is"
condition, without representations or warranties of any kind
whatsoever, except as may be provided for the Agreement, and the
participation of the buyer in the sale process shall constitute an
agreement and representation that the buyer has inspected the
Hillvue Property, and is purchasing the same solely on the basis of
such inspections, and not as the result of any representation of
any kind whatsoever by the Debtor, or any agents or representative
thereof, except as otherwise set forth.

The Debtor believes that the proposed sale is fair and reasonable,
and acceptance and approval of the same is in the best interests of
the Debtor's estate.  Accordingly, the Debtor asks the Court to
approve the sale of the Hillvue Property free and vlear of all
mortgages, liens, claims, and encumbrances to the successful
purchaser at the auction.

pay their projected net disposable income to Lone Star on an annual
basis over five years with the first payment due one year from the

approximately 7,128 head of cattle and, if determined by the court

payments under the plan.  Meanwhile, the Corns will use their
remaining net disposable income to pay creditors, according to the

KAG INC: Hires Shapiro & Hender as Bankruptcy Counsel
-----------------------------------------------------
KAG Inc. d/b/a Steve's Roast Beef aka AKG LLC seeks authorization
from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Massachusetts to
employ Shapiro & Hender as counsel.

The Debtor operates a small restaurant in Malden, which serves
roast beef sandwiches, chicken wings, pizza, calzones, and other
food and beverages (no liquor license) at its location in Malden at
12 Lebanon Street, Malden, MA 02148.

The Debtor has been battling its landlord in Malden District Court
since around June, 2015 (docket 1550SU000316, Mustafa El-Bach v KAG
Inc. Dba Steve's Roast Beef) and judgment issued for the landlord
for a total amount of $ 48,745.17 on November 6, 2015. The Debtor
has a lease which initially commenced July 1, 2002 and expired
2007, but which permits three successive additional five year terms
(thru 2023). The Debtor counterclaimed against the landlord for
failure to repair and maintain the premises in the lower court
summary process case.

The Debtor appealed the decision and posted an appeal bond, secured
by cash, with Malden District Court in the amount of $55,045.17
with Philadelphia Indemnity Insurance Co. on February 1, 2016.

On October 25, 2016, the Appellate Division of the District Courts
modified the lower court decision and ordered the Debtor to pay the
landlord $21,000 by November 7, 2016 and to pay $ 2,100 monthly
rent beginning December 1, 2016. The Debtor failed to make these
payments and, prior to issuance of an execution to the landlord,
filed this Chapter 11 petition.

The Debtor requires Shapiro & Hender to perform all of the services
necessary and desirable in a Chapter 11 proceeding.

Shapiro & Hender will be paid at these hourly rates:

       Jordan Shapiro             $300
       Paralegal                  $75

Shapiro and Hender has received a retainer from funds of the
Debtor's principle, George Panopoulos, in the amount of $ 10,000.00
on December 15, 2016. The sum of $1717.00 has been drawn down from
such retainer for the filing fee as of the time of submission of
the within Application. Otherwise, $8,283.00 remains in the
attorney's IOLTA account, subject to further court order.

Shapiro & Hender will also be reimbursed for reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

Jordan L. Shapiro, partner in the law firm of Shapiro & Hender,
assured the Court that the firm is a "disinterested person" as the
term is defined in Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code and does
not represent any interest adverse to the Debtor and its estates.

KARHOO INC: Flit Technologies Buying U.S. Assets
------------------------------------------------
Paul Cooper, the authorized foreign representative of Karhoo, Inc.,
and affiliates, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of New York to authorize the sale of the Debtors' right,
title, and interest in the US Assets to Flit Technologies Ltd.

Paul Appleton and Paul Cooper, as administrators of the Debtors
pursuant to the Insolvency Act, have negotiated a sale of assets of
the Debtors, including the assets of the US Debtors and such assets
of the UK Debtors that are in the territorial jurisdiction of the
US ("US Assets").  The Foreign Representative is aware that under
Second Circuit precedent, the Court is required to review the sale
of the US Assets under the principals of section 363 of the
Bankruptcy Code, see Krys v. Farnum Place, LLC (In re Fairfield
Sentry Ltd.), and therefore files the Motion.  In support of the
Motion, the Foreign Representative submits the declaration of Paul
Cooper dated Jan. 6, 2017, filed contemporaneously.  A hearing to
consider recognition of each of the UK Proceedings as a foreign
main proceeding is set for 10:00 a.m. on Jan. 31, 2016, before the
Court.

The Purchaser and the Debtors entered into Sale and Purchase
Agreement.

The material terms of the US Assets sale are:

   a. Purchased Assets: the assets, rights, claims, title and
benefit of each Debtor, the Intellectual Property Rights (as
defined in the SPA), all Intellectual Property Rights of the
Debtors, all rights of action relating to the Intellectual
Property, the books of account, databases, order records, lists of
customers, suppliers and prospective customers and suppliers,
historic insurance records, and other such records belonging to the
Debtors and all records and other documents relating to the
foregoing (but not, for the avoidance of doubt the Administrators'
records).

   b. US Assets: Such of the Purchased Assets as are owned by the
US Debtors or the Purchase Assets as are owned by the UK Debtors
and are within the territorial jurisdiction of the US.  The US
Assets include, without limitation, (1) Supplier and Dispatch
Contracts entered into by the US Debtors and (2) any Intellectual
Property Rights owned by the UK Debtors which are registered or
filed in the US.  The US Assets do not include any lists of
customers or prospective customers or any personally identifiable
information, as defined in section 101(41A) of the Bankruptcy
Code.

   c. Conditions to the Sale: as to the US Assets, payment of the
Cash Consideration (as defined in the SPA) and the Equity
Consideration; an Order by this Court recognizing the UK
Proceedings as to the US Debtors; an Order by this Court approving,
pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, the sale of the US
Debtors' right, title and interest (if any) in and to the US Assets
to the Purchaser; and the Secured Noteholders, the agent for the
Secured Noteholders, and the US Debtors executing a Consent and
Release Document.

   d. Purchase price: Cash Consideration in the amount of $500,000;
Equity Consideration in the amount of 10% of the preferred ordinary
shares of the Purchaser.

   e. Deadline for approval or closing of the sale: Feb. 28, 2017

   f. Relief from Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h) and 6006(d): the Foreign
Representative is seeking relief from the 14-day stay imposed by
Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h) and 6006(d).

The Foreign Representative submits that the Court should authorize
the assumption and assignment of executory contracts to the
Purchaser as part of the sale under the SPA.  With respect to the
issue of cure amounts necessary to approve the assumption and
assignment of the assumed contracts, the Purchaser will determine
by Jan. 31, 2017 the contracts to be assumed.  Objections to
proposed cure amounts will be due within 7 days of service of the
Assumption Notice.  Any unresolved objection will result in either
the non-assumption of such contract, or a hearing on the disputed
cure amount.

Based on the results of the Sale Process and the favorable terms of
the SPA, the Foreign Representative believes that the Sale of the
Purchased Assets, including the US Assets, in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the SPA represents the best realization of
value for the Debtors' creditors and other stakeholders under the
circumstances.  The consummation of the sale, as to the assets of
the US Debtors (which are within the territorial jurisdiction of
the US and therefore within the Court's jurisdiction upon
recognition of the relevant UK proceedings as foreign main
proceedings) is expressly conditioned upon the Court's entry of an
order approving the sale no later than Feb. 28, 2017.  Absent the
relief requested, the Debtor and its creditors will potentially
suffer significant, if not irreparable, harm due to an inability to
close the sale in full.  

The Foreign Representative believes that there is no realistic
opportunity for the Debtors to restructure as a going concern, as
they do not have sufficient working capital to operate their
assets.   
Accordingly, the Foreign Representative asks the Court to authorize
the sale of the US Assets to the Purchaser free and clear of all
liens, claims, encumbrances and other interests.

The Foreign Representative requests that the Order, once entered,
be effective immediately by providing that, to the extent
applicable, the 14-day stay under Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h) and
6006(d) is waived.  Time is of the essence with respect to the
Proposed Order.  The Purchasers have made clear to the Foreign
Representative that closing the Sale on an expedited basis is a key
consideration in entering into the SPA.

KDS GROUP: Can Use Comerica Bank Cash on Final Basis
----------------------------------------------------
Judge Brenda T. Rhoades of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Texas authorized KDS Group, PLLC to use the
cash collateral of Comerica Bank on a final basis.

The Debtor was authorized to use cash collateral for the payment of
approved operating expenses of up to the amount of $54,689 as set
forth in the Budget.

Judge Rhoades held that all cash received by the Debtor in excess
of the authorized expenditures will be retained in the Debtor's
debtor-in-possession account and prohibited the Debtor from
spending any excess cash without the advance written consent of
Comerica Bank or further Order of the Court.

Comerica Bank was granted replacement liens in the same types and
items of the Debtor's property, and any and all products and
proceeds thereof, acquired or arising post-petition in which
Comerica Bank held an interest pre-petition.

The Debtor was directed to:

     (a) to maintain insurance coverage on its collateral and
replacement collateral as required under the Debtor's pre-petition
agreements with Comerica Bank,

     (b) to remit all payroll taxes withheld from employees and pay
all payroll taxes the Debtor is obligated to pay by the required
deadlines, and

     (c) to allow representatives of Comerica Bank to periodically
inspect the Debtor's books and records and Comerica Bank's
collateral upon reasonable prior notice to the Debtor's counsel.

LEO MOTORS: Hires DLL CPAs as New Accountants
---------------------------------------------
Leo Motors, Inc., engaged DLL CPAs, LLC to serve as the Company's
independent registered public accounting firm, effective Jan. 5,
2017.  

The Company said that during its two most recent fiscal years and
through Jan. 5, 2016, it did not consult with DLL regarding (a) the
application of accounting principles to a specified transaction,
either completed or proposed, (b) the type of audit opinion that
might be rendered on the Company's financial statements by DLL, in
either case where a written report or oral advice provided by DLL
that DLL determined would be an important factor considered by the
Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or
financial reporting issues or (c) any other matter that was the
subject of a disagreement between the Company and its former
auditor or was a reportable event.  

On Jan. 5, 2017, Leo Motors was notified that Scrudato & Co., PA,
the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, had
had its PCAOB license revoked.  The Company therefore terminated
its engagement of Scrudato and notified Scrudato of its dismissal.

The reports of Scrudato on the Company's consolidated financial
statements as of and for the fiscal years ended Dec. 31, 2014, and
Dec. 31, 2015, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer
of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty,
audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Company's two most recent fiscal years ended Dec. 31,
2014, and 2015, and for the subsequent period through Jan. 5, 2017,
there were no disagreements with Scrudato on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure,
or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not
resolved to the satisfaction of Scrudato, would have caused
Scrudato to make reference to the subject matter of the
disagreements in connection with its reports on the financial
statements for such years, the Company said in a regulatory filing
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NEW COUNTRY WIRELESS: Allowed to Use Cash Collateral Until Jan. 31
------------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Christopher J. Panos of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Massachusetts approved the Stipulation between New
Country Wireless, LLC and Northern Bank & Trust Company authorizing
the Debtor to use cash collateral.

The Debtor was authorized to use cash collateral solely to pay its
ordinary and necessary business expenses as set forth in the
approved Budget and, during the term of the interim order, only
those expenses necessary to avoid immediate and irreparable harm to
the estate.  The approved Budget indicates total cash disbursements
of approximately $438,570 for expenses incidental to the Debtor's
operations from January 2, 2017 through March 27, 2017.

The Debtor's right to use cash Collateral will terminate upon the
earliest of:

      (a) January 31, 2017;

      (b) The Debtor's failure to maintain all necessary insurance;
or

      (c) At the option of Northern Bank, upon written notice by
Northern Bank to the Debtor, the United States Trustee, and any
Creditors' Committee that may be appointed of the occurrence of any
Termination Event.

As of the Petition Date, the Debtor was indebted to Northern Bank
in the aggregate sum of $1,423,350, consisting of principal,
accrued unterest and loan fees.  The debt is secured by a first
priority perfected security interest in and to the Debtor's
personal property including, without limitation, all accounts,
chattel paper, inventory, fixtures, general intangibles, goods,
equipment, patents, and trademarks.  Accordingly, Northern Bank
asserts a valid, perfected, and unavoidable first priority security
interest in the collateral.

All of the Debtor's cash and available funds constitute the
Northern Bank's cash collateral, except for funds received from
customers in payment of their Verizon bills, which the Debtor
remits to Amcomm Wireless LLC for transmittal to Verizon, all
pursuant to Verizon’s Datascape system.

Northern Bank was granted a security interest to the extent of any
diminution in the value of the its cash and non-cash collateral in
all of the Debtor's postpetition assets other than Datascape Funds,
with the same priority as may exist with respect to unavoidable
pre-petition liens in respect of the collateral.  

Northern Bank was also granted priority over all other claims, if
and to the extent of any Post-Petition Shortfall, that results from
the Debtor's post-petition use of such Collateral, with the sole
exception of quarterly fees due to the U.S. Trustee and with
respect to any proceeds of any cause of action recovered pursuant
to Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtor was directed to maintain all necessary insurance, as may
be currently in effect, naming Northern Bank as loss payee with
respect thereto and with respect to any other such insurance the
Debtor elects to obtain.

The Debtor was also directed to make payments to Northern Bank in
the amount equal to one month's interest accrued on the outstanding
principal balance of the Pre-Petition Indebtedness at the
applicable non-default rate, commencing on January 15, 2017.  The
payments will be applied to the Pre-Petition Indebtedness in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents.

The Debtor was required to file any further proposed budget and
form of order for use of cash collateral with the Court on or
before January 18, 2017.

The Court will hold a final hearing on use of cash collateral on
January 23, 2017 at 1:00 p.m. Objections to the use of cash
collateral are due by January 20, 2017.

PENN NATIONAL: Moody's Assigns Ba2 to Proposed $1.5-Bil. Loans
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a Ba2 rating to Penn National
Gaming, Inc.'s (Penn) proposed $1.5 billion credit facilities,
proceeds of which will be used to repay the company existing credit
facilities in full. The credit facilities are comprised of a $700
million revolver due 2022, $300 million term loan A due 2022, and
$500 million term loan B due 2024.

Penn's Ba3 Corporate Family Rating, Ba3-PD Probability of Default
Rating, and B2 senior unsecured note rating were affirmed. The
company has a SGL-2 Speculative Grade Liquidity rating, and the
company's outlook remains stable.

"Penn's proposed bank debt refinancing is largely neutral in terms
of total debt amount, however it is a credit positive in that it
will extend the company's nearest funded debt maturity out about
four years, to 2022 from 2018. Currently, about half of the
company's funded debt matures in 2018," stated Keith Foley, a
Senior Vice President at Moody's.

In a separate announcement Penn issued a press release announcing
that it is commencing a cash tender offer for any and all of the
$300 million aggregate outstanding principal amount of its 5.875%
senior notes due 2021.

"The Ba2 rating on the proposed credit facilities assumes that
these senior unsecured notes will be replaced with a future
unsecured financing that will provide enough credit support for the
proposed credit facilities to be rated one-notch above the
Corporate Family Rating," added Foley.

New ratings assigned:

$700 million revolver due 2022 - Ba2 (LGD3)

$300 million term loan A due 2022 - Ba2 (LGD3)

$500 million term loan B due 2024 - Ba2 (LGD3)

Ratings affirmed:

Corporate Family Rating, at Ba3

Probability of Default Rating, at Ba3-PD

$300 million senior unsecured notes due 2021, at B2 (LGD5)

Ratings affirmed and to be withdrawn once transaction closes:

$633.2 revolver due 2018 -- Ba2 (LGD3)

$543.0 million term loan A due 2018 - Ba2 (LGD3)

$243.0 million term loan B due 2020 - Ba2 (LGD3)

RATINGS RATIONALE

Penn's Ba3 Corporate Family Rating is supported by its large size
in terms of revenue, high level of geographic diversification,
Moody's stable US gaming industry outlook, and the operating and
financial benefits Moody's believes are available to Penn through
the company's relationship with Gaming & Leisure Properties, Inc.
(GLPI, Ba1 stable), a real estate investment trust. Penn benefits
from its relationship with GLPI in that it can present
opportunities for Penn to secure management contracts from new
assets at GLPI. The relationship also facilitates further
diversification for Penn by allowing it ownership of assets in
jurisdictions with restrictions on ownership of more than one
asset.

Key credit concerns include Penn's high leverage. While Moody's
expects that leverage will continue to improve, Moody's believes it
will remain above 5.0 times in the foreseeable future, a level
considered high for a Ba3 Corporate Family Rating. Penn's
debt/EBITDA for the 12-month period ended September 30, 2016 was
slightly above 6.0 times. Other concerns include the long-term
fundamental challenges facing regional gaming companies related to
consumer entertainment preferences and US population demographics
that Moody's believes will continue to move in a direction that
does not favor traditional casino-style gaming.

The stable rating outlook considers Moody's expectation that Penn
will apply its free cash flow in a manner that will enable the
company to achieve and maintain its publicly stated debt/EBITDA
leverage target of between 5.0 times and 5.5 times. An upgrade
would require that Penn demonstrate the ability and willingness to
achieve and maintain debt/EBITDA below 5.0 times. A downgrade could
occur if debt/EBITDA rises and is maintained above 6.0 times for
any reason.

Penn National Gaming, Inc. owns, operates twenty-seven facilities
in seventeen jurisdictions, including Florida, Illinois, Indiana,
Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri,
Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, West
Virginia, and Ontario. Net revenue for the latest 12-month period
ended September 30, 2016 was about $3.0 billion.


PREMIER EXHIBITIONS: Committee Balks at Exclusivity Extension Bid
-----------------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reported that Premier Exhibitions' official
committee of unsecured creditors filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court an objection to the Debtors' motion to extend exclusivity and
a response to the equity committee's motion to terminate
exclusivity. The creditors' committee asserts, "The Debtors'
argument that their unsecured creditors would not be prejudiced by
the requested exclusivity extension through April 10 is
disingenuous, at best: To date, the Debtors have done little to
pursue alternative strategies, such as the sale of the entire
Titanic collection, subject to the Revised Covenants and
Conditions. The cash collateral budget prepared by the Debtors'
financial advisor and shared with the Creditors' Committee earlier
this month indicates the Debtors are operationally insolvent and
are expected to run out of cash in a matter of months absent a DIP
loan. The Debtors have acknowledged that their ability to close on
a DIP loan hinges on their obtaining clean title to the French
artifacts, which in turn requires that they prevail in the pending
adversary proceeding against France, which has yet to occur. The
Debtors' statement that they have received no proposals from any
party regarding an alternative strategy is patently false. The
Debtors attempt to portray their limited cash resources as a reason
to extend exclusivity, arguing that absent such relief the Debtors
will have to pay administrative expenses that they can ill afford
associated with another party's potentially proposing a plan that
contemplates an alternative strategy. The Debtors' deteriorating
cash position, however, weighs against extending exclusivity.

PREMIER EXHIBITIONS: Euclid Objects to Exclusivity Extension Bid
----------------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reported that Euclid Investments and Euclid
Claims Recovery filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court an objection
to Premier Exhibitions' second motion for an exclusivity extension.
The objection explains, "It is distressingly apparent from the
Second Extension Motion that debtor management seeks to have the
Court and all parties in interest ignore management's fiduciary
malfeasance and failure to act during the critical first six months
of these cases and proceed as if these cases were commenced for the
first time in December after the Motion to Terminate was filed. To
the contrary, management's abject failure to engage with the
statutory committees in moving these cases forward before now
cannot be ignored. It has had the effect of placing estate
stakeholders in an urgent and untenable position with little time
remaining to formulate the terms of a chapter 11 plan as the
estates now appear on the verge of operational insolvency."

RAMUNDSEN INTERMEDIATE: S&P Assigns Prelim. 'B' Corp. Credit Rating
-------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned a preliminary 'B' corporate credit
rating to Lake Mary, Florida-based Ramundsen Intermediate Holdings
LLC.  The outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P assigned a preliminary 'B+' issue-level
rating and preliminary '2' recovery rating to the company's
proposed $40 million senior secured revolving credit facility due
2022 and $275 million senior secured term loan B due 2024.  The '2'
recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation of substantial
(70%-90%; lower half of the range) recovery in the event of a
payment default.  All ratings are based on preliminary terms and
conditions.

S&P also assigned its preliminary 'CCC+' issue-level rating and
preliminary '6' recovery rating to the proposed $120 million
second-lien term loan due 2025.  The '6' recovery rating indicates
S&P's expectations for negligible (0%-10%) recovery in the event of
payment default.

The preliminary issue ratings and expected 'B' corporate credit
rating are subject to S&P's review of final documentation.

The company provides software and services for local governments
and municipalities, public safety and justice agencies, and
non-profit organizations.  The rating is based on Ramundsen's
small-scale, narrow market focus, and slow-growing addressable
market, which limit operating flexibility.  These factors are
partly offset by its solid position in local government and
municipal markets, stable operating track record, and meaningful
recurring revenue base.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectation that the company's
solid recurring revenue base and disciplined cost management will
support consistent profitability and free operating cash flow over
the next year.



REALOGY GROUP: Changes to Loans No Impact on Moody's Ratings
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service says Realogy Group LLC's proposed
increase of its senior secured revolving credit facility due 2020
by up to $185 million and its plan to reduce pricing on its senior
secured term loan B due 2022 are positive liquidity developments
but the Ba3 Corporate Family, Ba3-PD Probability of Default, Ba1
senior secured, B1 senior unsecured and SGL-1 Speculative Grade
Liquidity ratings, as well as the stable ratings outlook, are
unchanged at this time.

RUBY TUESDAY: Moody's Alters Outlook to Neg Over Weak 2nd Quarter
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed the ratings of Ruby Tuesday,
Inc. including its B3 Corporate Family Rating, B3-PD Probability of
Default Rating, and Caa1 senior unsecured rating. At the same time,
Moody's revised the company's rating outlook to negative from
stable and downgraded the company's Speculative Grade Liquidity
Rating to SGL-4 from SGL-3.

"The revision of Ruby Tuesday's rating outlook to negative reflects
Moody's expectations that following a weak second quarter ended
November 29, 2016 -- including negative adjusted EBITDA and
negative same store sales and traffic -- it will be more difficult
to achieve the improvements expected when the company announced its
Fresh Start Initiative in August", stated Peter Trombetta, an
AVP-Analyst at Moody's. "Earnings pressure is being caused by the
closure of over 100 stores in the past 6 months, a high level of
promotional activity from its competitors and higher labor costs,"
added Trombetta. Moody's expects the company will benefit from the
planned changes to its menu and Garden Bar, however the revamped
menu did not roll out until mid-November and the improvements to
its Garden Bar do not go into effect until mid-January, so it will
take time for these initiatives to show in the company's results.

The downgrade of the company's liquidity rating primarily reflects
the company's inability to meet its fixed charge coverage ratio for
the November 30, 2016 period under its bank facility and certain of
its mortgage obligations. The company entered into a waiver
agreement, however it only received a limited waiver through
January 31, 2017. In addition, its bank lenders decreased the
revolver (which expires in December 2017) commitment to $16 million
from $50 million, which leaves the company with about $5 million of
availability after taking into consideration letters of credit.
While the company has not borrowed under the revolver recently, in
Moody's view access to a committed revolver is an important piece
of a company's liquidity. If the company is not able to come to an
agreement on a longer term amendment with its bank facility and
mortgage lenders, it could be required to cash collateralize about
$11 million of letters of credit and about $4 million of related
mortgage obligations could be accelerated.

The following rating actions were taken:

Ratings affirmed:

Corporate Family Rating at B3

Probability of Default Rating at B3-PD

$250 million senior unsecured notes due 2020 at Caa1 (LGD4)

Ratings downgraded:

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

Outlook actions:

Rating outlook revised to negative from stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

The B3 Corporate Family Rating continues to reflect Ruby Tuesday's
weak operating performance driven by a highly promotional
environment in the casual dining sector that has resulted in
negative same store sales and traffic trends over the past year.
The highly promotional environment, coupled with increased labor
and operating costs, has resulted in interest coverage of less than
1.0x and leverage of about 6.0x for the last 12 month period ended
November 29, 2016. The ratings are supported by the company's high
level of brand awareness, material scale, and Moody's expectation
that the company's strategic initiative will benefit the company
through improved same store sales results.

The SGL-4 reflects weak liquidity. The company reported cash
balances of $39 million at November 29, 2016, down from $69 million
at August 30, 2016. Moody's expects that the company's modest free
cash flow and cash balances will be sufficient to cover debt
service requirements, mortgage maturities, capital expenditures and
costs associated with its strategic initiative over the next 12 to
18 months. The company's revolver matures in less than one year
(December 2017) and per the terms of the aforementioned waiver
agreement, the revolver commitment was reduced to $16 million --
which gives the company about $5 million of availability.
Benefitting the company's liquidity is Ruby Tuesday's portfolio of
owned and unencumbered properties that it could sell for additional
liquidity if necessary. The company is currently in the process of
selling 25 locations for an average of $1.6 million per location.
As of November 29, 2016, the company owned the building and land of
269 of its stores, 84 of which are encumbered by mortgages or as
security for its committed revolver.

Ratings could be downgraded if the company does not see benefits
from the strategic initiatives that are in the process of being
rolled out, including improved same store sales and traffic trends.
Ratings could also be downgraded if the company's cash flow
weakens. The company's rating outlook could be revised back to
stable if same store sales and traffic trends improve, reflecting
successful implementation of its Fresh Start Initiative. A stable
rating outlook would also require adequate liquidity. An upgrade
would require a sustained improvement in earnings driven by
positive operating trends, particularly a stabilization of traffic,
and lower costs. Independent of any change to the Corporate Family
Rating, the rating on the unsecured notes could be upgraded should
the amount of secured debt ahead of it in the capital structure
decrease as a percentage of total debt.

Ruby Tuesday, Inc. owns, operates and franchises restaurants under
the Ruby Tuesday brand name. Ruby Tuesday's system includes 613
restaurants, of which 546 were company operated (as of November 29,
2016). Annual revenues are approximately $1.0 billion.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Restaurant
Industry published in September 2015.


S-3 PUMP: Transportation Alliance Tries To Block Disclosures OK
---------------------------------------------------------------
Creditor Transportation Alliance Bank, Inc., filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Louisiana an objection
to S-3 Pump Service, Inc.'s disclosure statement for the Debtor's
first amended plan of reorganization.

The Lender claims that the Disclosure Statement fails to provide
adequate information and is deficient because, among others:

     a. the definition of "Allowed" should not mechanically   
        exclude post-petition amounts due to the holder of a
        claim, and instead, should comply with 11 U.S.C Section
        506 to provide that post-petition amounts accrue only to
        the extent the claim is oversecured;

     b. the "Distribution Record Date" should be a date earlier
        than 20 days prior to the Confirmation Hearing Date so as
        to allow any creditor negatively affected thereby to have
        sufficient time to file and have heard a motion with
        respect thereto prior to the Confirmation Hearing Date;

     c. the definition of "Final Order" should be modified so that

        an order that is the subject of pending appeal that has
        not yet been resolved despite the lack of a "stay" does
        not constitute a "Final Order";

     d. the definition of "First Priority Lien" should be modified

        so that it means a first priority Lien on Collateral that
        is not subject to any liens arising under and superior to
        the First Priority Lien under applicable law, or the
        defined term should be changed to indicate that lien to
        which it references may be a subordinated lien;

     e. the terms "Protected Parties" and "Released Parties" are
        very broad and appear to include guarantors of the
        obligations of Debtor to Lender, which is contrary to the
        provision of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, including, without
        limitation, 11 U.S.C. Section 524(e);

     f. for ease of reference, the Statement should provide
        separate, easy to understand and succinct statements that
        identify the assets and any liabilities that will be (i)
        retained by, delivered to, or assumed by, the Creditors
        Trust, (ii) retained by, delivered to, or assumed by, the
        Reorganized Debtor, and (iii) abandoned, sold or
        surrendered; and

     g. with regard to the $1,000,000 cash contribution to be made

        by Malcolm and Linda Sneed, the Statement should:

        1. explain how it was determined that $1,000,000 was the
           appropriate amount to pay for 100% of the new equity of

           the Reorganized; and

        2. provide more details as to the source of those proceeds

           and how those proceeds will be used by the Reorganized
           Debtor.

The Disclosure Statement, according to the Lender, should disclose
the amount owed by Debtor in connection with its post-petition
credit arrangement that is disclosed on page 24 of the Statement
and how much it anticipates it will owe upon confirmation, as well
as the security for the obligations.

SHORELINE ENERGY: Unknown Recovery for Unsecured Creditors
----------------------------------------------------------
Shoreline Energy, LLC, and affiliates filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas their first
amended joint disclosure statement and accompanying joint plan of
liquidation, a full-text copy of which is available for free at:

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/txsb16-35571-24.pdf

Class 7, General Unsecured Claims and Holdco Claims, is impaired
under the Plan.  All Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims
(including any Deficiency Claims) will receive any proceeds from
the liquidation of the Liquidating Trust Assets remaining after the
payment of: (i) the costs of administering the Liquidating Trusts;
(ii) the Allowed Convenience Claims; and (iii) the payment on
account of any Liquidating Trust Assets to which a lien has
attached, including First Lien Credit Agreement Claims and the
Second Lien Credit Facility Claims. Estimated recovery for this
class is unknown.

Because the Plan proposes a liquidation of all of the Debtors'
assets, the Debtors have analyzed the ability of the Liquidating
Trust to meet its obligations under the Plan. Based on the Debtors'
analysis, the Liquidating Trust will have sufficient assets to
accomplish its tasks under the Plan.

SURGICAL CARE: Moody's Reviews Ratings for Upgrade on Optum Deal
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service placed the ratings of Surgical Care
Affiliates, Inc. ("SCA") under review for upgrade, including the
company's B1 Corporate Family Rating and B1-PD Probability of
Default Rating. This action follows the announcement that
UnitedHealth Group Inc.'s (A3 negative) Optum has entered into a
definitive agreement to acquire SCA in a transaction valued at
approximately $3.2 billion including debt. Moody's also affirmed
the Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating of SGL-2 due to SCA's
significant revolver availability, consistently positive free cash
flow and good cushion under its covenants.

The transaction is expected to close during the first half of 2017,
subject to regulatory review and customary closing conditions.

The following ratings were placed under review for upgrade:

Surgical Care Affiliates, Inc.

Corporate Family Rating, B1

Probability of Default Rating, B1-PD

Senior secured revolving credit facility expiring 2020, Ba3
(LGD 3)

Senior secured term loan due 2022, Ba3 (LGD 3)

Senior unsecured notes due 2023, B3 (LGD 5)

Ratings affirmed:

Surgical Care Affiliates, Inc.

Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating at SGL-2

RATINGS RATIONALE

The review for upgrade is based upon Moody's view that, should the
acquisition by SCA be consummated, that SCA will become part of an
enterprise with a stronger overall credit profile than if SCA
remains a standalone entity. The review will focus on Optum's
treatment of SCA's debt following the close of the acquisition.

Should UnitedHealth's Optum decide not to guarantee any SCA debt
remaining outstanding after the close, or not to provide separate
financial statements for SCA, which would enable an independent
credit evaluation post-acquisition, Moody's will likely withdraw
the ratings on SCA.

Excluding the contemplated acquisition by UnitedHealth's Optum,
SCA's B1 (on review for upgrade) Corporate Family Rating reflects
the company's moderate financial leverage, adequate interest
coverage and good free cash flow. Moody's anticipates that SCA will
remain acquisitive in order to gain scale and diversify product
line services. As such, Moody's expects that free cash flow will be
used primarily for growth expansion and not debt repayment over the
next 18 to 24 months.

The rating reflects favorable industry fundamentals over the longer
term. Moody's expects insurance payers, including Medicare, to
continue driving patients to less expensive points of care, such as
ASCs. The rating also benefits from the company's strong market
position and good case mix.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Business and
Consumer Service Industry" published in October 2016.

Surgical Care Affiliates, LLC, headquartered in Deerfield,
Illinois, operates one of the largest networks of surgical
facilities in the US, comprised of 205 surgical facilities,
including ambulatory surgery centers and seven surgical hospitals
as of September 30, 2016.


T&C GYMNASTICS: Can Continue Using Cash Collateral Until March 7
----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Timothy A. Barnes of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Illinois authorized T&C Gymnastics, LLC, to

The Debtor acknowledged that, as of Petition Date, it owed William
and Janice Whitaker the amount of $71,094, as well as Financial
Agent Services in the amount of $17,214. Both debts are secured by
substantially all of the assets of the Debtor.

Judge Barnes acknowledged that an immediate need exists for the
Debtor to use the Prepetition Collateral, including the cash
collateral, to continue its business operations.

The Whitakers and Financial Agent Services were granted a security
interest in and replacement lien upon all the Debtor's currently
existing and after-acquired property, and the proceeds and products
thereof.  The Debtor was directed to make interim monthly payments
to the Whitakers in the amount of $250, and to Financial Agent
Services in the amount of $800.

A final hearing on the Debtor's use of cash collateral is scheduled
on March 7, 2017 at 10:30 a.m.

TALL CITY WELL: Disclosures Okayed, Plan Hearing on Jan. 24
-----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Texas will
consider approval of the Chapter 11 plan of reorganization of Tall
City Well Service, LP at a hearing on Jan. 24.

The hearing will be held at 10:00 a.m., at Courtroom 3, 100 East
Wall Street, Midland, Texas.

The court had earlier approved the disclosure statement, allowing
Tall City to start soliciting votes from creditors.  

The Dec. 22 order set a Jan. 19 deadline for creditors to cast
their votes and file their objections.

Tall City's latest restructuring plan proposes to pay starting on
the effective date the agreed-to secured claim held by Wells Fargo
Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Equipment Finance, Inc. in the amount of
$9.5 million amortized over 15 years, with a "balloon" payment on
the remaining debt owed to those creditors at the end of 36
months.

As of Dec. 22, Tall City has not reached an agreement with Wells
Fargo and WFEF regarding the proposed treatment of their claims.

Tall City also proposes to pay all other secured claims over 15
years and pay other claims in full over seven years, according to
the company's latest disclosure statement filed on Dec. 22.

TAMARACK DEVELOPMENT: Seeks Authorization to Use Cash Collateral
----------------------------------------------------------------
Tamarack Development Associates, LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Western District of Michigan for authorization to use cash
collateral.

The Debtor operates a hotel resort known as Tamarack Lodge.  The
Debtor has developed a condominium project on the real estate known
as Tamarack Lodge Resort Condominiums.  The Debtor rents rooms at
Tamarack Lodge and also sells interval ownership units at
Tamarack.

The Debtor requires the immediate post-petition use of cash
collateral in order to continue to operate and maintain its
business in an orderly manner during the pendency of its Chapter 11
case, particularly, to maintain business relationships with vendors
and suppliers, pay the usual costs of running the business and
satisfy other ordinary operational costs, including taxes and
insurance.

The Debtor asserts that the use of cash collateral is critical to
enabling the Debtor to preserve and maintain the value of its
Estate for the benefit of all parties in interest, such that, if
the Debtor is not authorized to use cash collateral, the Debtor
would be forced to cease operations, thereby causing serious,
irreparable harm to the Debtor and its Estate.

The secured parties with an interest in the Debtor's cash
collateral are:

     (a) PNC Bank, National Association, which is currently owed
less than $250,000;

     (b) American Express Bank, FSB, which is currently owed
approximately $145,000; and

     (c) RCH Delaware Investments #1, LLC, which is owed a maximum
advance of $350,000.

The Debtor proposes to provide PNC Bank, AMEX Bank and RCH, LLC
additional and replacement continuing and automatically perfected
postpetition security interests in and liens on any and all
presently owned and hereafter acquired personal property, real
property and all other assets of the Debtor, with the same extent,
validity and priority as they existed pre-petition.

TAUREN EXPLORATION: Hires Orenstein Law as Special Counsel
----------------------------------------------------------
Tauren Exploration, Inc., seeks authorization from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas to employ
Orenstein Law Group, PC as special litigation counsel.

Tauren's core business historically has been in the oil and gas
industry, an industry that currently is facing significant
distress.

The event that triggered this Chapter 11 is the "Gloria's Ranch"
litigation that resulted in a joint and several judgment in excess
of $20 million against Wells Fargo Energy Capital, Inc. and Tauren


Defendant Wells Fargo posted the required appellate bond to suspend
collection against Wells Fargo. Tauren, however, could not afford
to post the bond and Tauren's request to "piggy-back" on the Wells
Fargo appellate bond unexpectedly was denied.

Following that denial of Tauren's "piggy back" request, Gloria's
Ranch began a scorched earth collection effort against Tauren. The
cornerstone of that scorched collection effort is the factually
"barebones" lawsuit Gloria's Ranch filed in Louisiana against
Tauren, its owner Calvin A. Wallen, III, and two other companies
controlled by Mr. Wallen, Fossil Operating and Langtry Mineral &
Development, LLC, a lawsuit now pending in this bankruptcy as
Adversary Proceeding 16-03144-HDH ("Adversary") for which special
litigation counsel is required.

The Debtor requires the Firm to:

     a. draft and file either an answer or other appropriate
initial response to the Complaint;

     b. depending on the outcome of any initial response or
dispositive motions, carry out typical motion practice and the
general defense of Tauren in the Adversary;

     c. conduct discovery relevant to the Adversary, including the
review of books and records of the DIP and its creditors and
related parties; and

     d. draft and file appropriate motions with respect to
Nichols's compensation as a professional person.

The Firm will be paid at these hourly rates:

     Nathan M. Nichols     $275
     Legal Assistants    $120

To the extent necessary and advisable, the Firm's Rosa R. Orenstein
may also provide services to the Debtor at the rate of $425 per
hour.

Mr. Nichols has requested a $3,000 retainer to be used for work
performed in the Adversary.  He will also be reimbursed for
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

Nathan M. Nichols, Esq., associate of Orenstein Law Group, P.C.,
assured the Court that the firm is a "disinterested person" as the
term is defined in Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code and does
not represent any interest adverse to the Debtor and its estates.

TEAM HEALTH: Moody's Rates New $1.015BB Unsecured Notes Due 2025
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a Caa1 rating to Team Health
Holdings, Inc.'s new $1.015 billion senior unsecured notes issuance
due 2025. The Caa1 rating reflects the senior unsecured notes'
junior position in Team Health's capital structure. Moody's also
affirmed its existing ratings on Team Health, including the B2
Corporate Family Rating, B2-PD Probability of Default Rating, and
the B1 rating on its senior secured credit facility. The outlook is
stable.

Ratings assigned:

Team Health Holdings, Inc.

Senior unsecured notes due 2025 at Caa1 (LGD 5)

Ratings affirmed:

Team Health Holdings, Inc.

Corporate Family Rating at B2

Probability of Default Rating at B2-PD

Senior secured revolving credit facility expiring 2022 at B1
(LGD 3)

Senior secured term loan due 2024 at B1 (LGD 3)

The outlook is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Team Health's B2 Corporate Family Rating reflects Moody's
expectation that the company will operate with very high financial
leverage during the next 12-18 months. Moody's estimates Team
Health's pro forma adjusted debt to EBITDA to be approximately 7.5
times. Moody's expects this leverage to decline to around 6.5 times
over the next 12 to 18 months. The B2 rating is also constrained by
integration risk, reimbursement risk, and the company's exposure to
uninsured individuals, each of which could exert pressure on Team
Health's profitability.

The B2 CFR is supported by Team Health's strong competitive
position in the highly fragmented physician staffing industry and
stable cash flow. Further, Moody's expects Team Health to gradually
improve its post-acute care business by capturing synergies related
to its 2015 IPC Healthcare acquisition. Moody's also expects that
the company will remain aggressive in its pursuit of small tuck-in
acquisitions, but that it will fund transactions in a manner that
maintains the company's ability to deleverage.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Team Health
will remain highly leveraged over the next 12-18 months, and that
internally generated cash will be used for debt repayment and
tuck-in acquisitions.

The ratings could be upgraded if Team Health effectively manages
its growth and reduces its business concentration. The company
would also need to smoothly migrate IPC Healthcare to the Team
Health billing system before Moody's would consider an upgrade.
Finally, Team Health would need to reduce debt/EBITDA to around 5.0
times before Moody's would consider a higher rating.

The ratings could be downgraded if Team Health fails to reduce
adjusted debt to EBITDA below 6.5 times over the next 12-18 months.
A downgrade could also be triggered by a failure to achieve
meaningful acquisition-related synergies, billing system setbacks,
weak operating performance, or a negative change in reimbursement.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Service Industry published in October 2016.

Team Health is a provider of physician staffing and administrative
services to hospitals and other healthcare providers in the U.S.
The company is affiliated with more than 19,000 healthcare
professionals who provide emergency medicine, hospital medicine,
anesthesia, urgent care, pediatric staffing and management
services. The company also provides a full range of healthcare
management services to military treatment facilities. Net revenues
are approximately $4.4 billion.


TOTAL COMM SYSTEMS: JD Factors To Get $49,750 for 36 Mos., at 3.5%
------------------------------------------------------------------
Total Comm Systems, Inc., filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Eastern District of Pennsylvania its first amended disclosure
statement describing their plan of reorganization, which will make
monthly distributions to its Secured Creditors, Unsecured Priority
Creditors, and Unsecured Creditors throughout the life of the Plan.


Class 1 consists only of J D Factors Secured Claim, and is
Impaired. The Class 1 Creditor holds a pre-petition Secured Claim
against the Debtor based on a factoring agreement relating to the
Debtor's accounts receivable. As of the Petition Date, J D Factors'
secured Claim was $3,317,014, collateralized by the Debtor's
then-existing accounts receivable. The Debtor estimates its
accounts receivable which would be subject to the Secured Claim of
J D Factors at $1,125,599. The J D Factors Secured Claim will be
treated as follows:

   a. The J D Factors Secured Claim will be reduced via payments
from third parties on invoices which were factored pre- and
post-petition during the post-petition period, leaving
approximately $2,700,000 remaining on the J D Factors Secured
Claim;

   b. Monthly payments in the amount of $49,750 will be made for
the allowed amount of the J D Factors Secured Claim; this amount
will be offset against post-petition rebates, with any rebates from
existing factoring repayments which are greater than the monthly
payment amount to reduce the next scheduled monthly payment(s);

   c. Monthly payments will commence the first day of the first
calendar month after the Effective Date and continuing 36 months
with interest accruing at the rate of 3.5%;

   d. A balloon payment for the balance of the J D Factor Secured
Claim, plus interest accruing at a rate of 3.5%, will be due and
payable on the first Business Day of the 37th calendar month after
the Effective Date;

   e. The Class 1 Creditor will maintain any lien, encumbrance,
and/or security  interest in the Property or assets of the Debtor
until the conclusion of this Plan;

   f. The Debtor contemplates continuing to finance its operations
post confirmation by entering into a post confirmation factoring
arrangement with the Class 1 Creditor on terms similar to the DIP
Factoring arrangement and for which all of the Post-Confirmation
Debtor’s assets will be pledged as collateral. In addition, the
Post-Confirmation factoring will provide that the J D Factor
Secured Claim referenced will be cross-defaulted, accelerated and
due in full, in the event the PostConfirmation factoring is in
default, terminated, replaced or paid in full at any time prior to
the 37th calendar month after the Effective Date; and

   g. To the extent that any amount of the Class 1 Claim is
unsecured, it will be paid as a General Unsecured Claim. The Debtor
estimates the unsecured portion of the J D Factors Claim at
approximately $0.

All payments will be made from the Debtor's future earnings.

WHITE WING: Can Utilize Cash Collateral on Final Basis
------------------------------------------------------
Judge Brenda T. Rhoades of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Texas authorized White Wing Weaponry LLC to use
cash collateral on a final basis.

Judge Rhoades acknowledged the existence of the Debtor's immediate
and critical need to use claimed cash collateral in order to pay
expenses necessary for the continued operation of its business and
reorganization, as it will enable the Debtor to maximize the value
of its estate.

The approved Budget reflects total operating expenses in the
aggregate sum of $17,871 and a disbursement in the amount of
$30,800 for the purchase of inventory.

The Debtor was directed not to pay any expenses for the benefit of
WWW Retail, LLC under any circumstances, but instead, WWW Retail,
LLC will pay its own share of expenses from its own DIP account.

Northstar Bank and Firstlease, Inc. claim or may claim a security
interest in the property of the Debtor consisting of, among other
things, the Debtor’s accounts receivable and/or cash.

Northstar and Firstlease were granted replacement liens on
post-petition accounts receivable and cash as adequate protection,
which replacement liens will be held by Northstar Bank and
Firstlease, Inc. in the same extent, validity, priority and value
as they existed prior to the petition date. Such replacement liens
will secure any amount equal to the sum of the aggregate
diminution, in the value of the claimed cash collateral.

The Debtor was directed to maintain insurance coverage on all
inventory and other property constituting Northstar's and
Firstlease's collateral.

The Debtor was also directed to provide Northstar and Firstlease:

     (a) copies of its Monthly Operating Report,

     (b) copies of its sales report,

     (c) full consolidated amount of funds on hand,

     (d) full accounting of all revenues received and spent since
the Petition date, and

     (e) a copy of the Debtor's DIP Bank statement.

The Debtor was directed to provide monthly adequate protection
payments in the amount of $964 to Northstar, beginning on January
20, 2017 and continuing on the 20th day of each following month
until confirmation of a plan of reorganization, conversion of the
case to a Chapter 7 case or dismissal of its case.

The Debtor's authorization to use cash collateral will continue
until the earlier of:

      (a) the effective date of the confirmation of a plan of
reorganization, including a plan of liquidation;

      (b) the sale of substantially all the assets of the Debtor
and the payment of the proceeds therefrom to the alleged secured
creditors which have been determined by the Court to be secured
creditor;

      (c) the conversion of the Debtor's case to a case under
Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code; or

Jeremy Hubnik (85%) and James O'Leary (15%) jointly own both the
Debtors.  The Debtors are seeking the joint administration of
their cases.

The Debtors are Texas limited liability companies and
operate
retail firearms stores, including providing repair and
servicing of firearms.

The Debtors' business assets consist generally of inventory of new
and used firearms held for retail sale, some of which are also on
consignment for sale, equipment, parts and materials to repair
firearms, receivables from these operations generated in the
ordinary course of businesses together with cash payments, office
equipment, furniture and software to track its sales and inventory.
The Debtors lease the real property where they operate their
businesses.


WRAP MEDIA: Taps Kranz & Associates for Outsourced Operations
-------------------------------------------------------------
Wrap Media, LLC seeks authorization from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Northern District of California to employ Kranz &
Associates as its outsourced administration, finance and human
resources departments.

In order to minimize ongoing overhead, the Debtors outsourced
operations as fully as was practicable.  Until relatively recently,
the Debtors had a Chief Financial Officer on payroll, but the
controller, human resource and other administrative functions
("Administration Services") were largely handled through an
outsourcing agreement with Kranz, principally implemented by Shaun
O'Connor, who acted as the Debtors' Controller.   

Kranz provides its services conditioned on the prompt bi-monthly
payment of its fees.  Historically, its fees averaged $4,000, twice
a month, but the Debtors estimate that will increase substantially
post-petition, possibly to $6,000 twice a month or more, due to the
Debtor’s loss of its Chief Financial Officer and other personnel
and the increased reporting duties associated with its Chapter 11
case.  The personnel whose function Kranz is replacing had fully
burdened annual salaries aggregating $370,000.

Kranz will be paid at these hourly rates:

       Bud Austin                  $225
       Deborah Kranz               $225
       Shaun O'Connor              $135
       CFO                         $210
       VP Finance                  $175
       Controller                  $150
       Assistant Controller        $135
       Sr. Accounting Manager      $120
       Accounting Manager          $110
       Jr. Acct Manager            $95
       Sr. Accountant              $80
       Accountant                  $75
       Stock Administrator         $125

Kranz will also be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred.

Kranz has offset its retainer against its pre-petition billings,
resulting in a net pre-petition retainer of $6,339.

Shaun O'Connor of Kranz assured the Court that the firm is a
"disinterested person" as the term is defined in Section 101(14) of
the Bankruptcy Code and does not represent any interest adverse to
the Debtor and its estate.

Wrap Media, LLC and Wrap Media, Inc. sought protection under
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. N. D. Calif. Case Nos.
16-31325 and 16-31326) on December 10, 2016.  The petitions were
signed by Eric Greenberg, chief executive officer.  

The cases are assigned to Judge Hannah L. Blumenstiel.  The Debtors
hired St. James Law, P.C. as their legal counsel; and Beyer Law
Group, LLP as special counsel.

At the time of the filing, the Debtors estimated their assets at $1
million to $10 million and liabilities at $10 million to $50

WWW RETAIL: Can Use Cash Collateral on Final Basis
--------------------------------------------------
Judge Brenda T. Rhoades of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Texas authorized WWW Retail LLC to use cash
collateral on a final basis.

Judge Rhoades acknowledged the existence of the Debtor's immediate
and critical need to use claimed cash collateral in order to pay
expenses necessary for the continued operation of its business and
reorganization, as it will enable the Debtor to maximize the value
of its estate.

The approved Budget provides for total operating expenses in the
aggregate sum of $9,812 and cash disbursement in the amount of
$28,800 for the purchase of inventory.

Judge Rhoades held that the Debtor will not pay any expenses for
the benefit of White Wing Weaponry, LLC under any circumstances,
but instead, White Wing Weaponry, LLC will pay its own share of
expenses from its own DIP account.

Northstar Bank and Firstlease, Inc. claim or may claim a security
interest in the property of the Debtor consisting of, among other
things, the Debtor's accounts receivable and/or cash.

Northstar and Firstlease were granted replacement liens on
post-petition accounts receivable and cash as adequate protection,
which replacement liens will be held by Northstar Bank and
Firstlease, Inc. in the same extent, validity, priority and value
as they existed prior to the petition date. Such replacement liens
will secure any amount equal to the sum of the aggregate
diminution, in the value of the claimed cash collateral.

The Debtor was directed to maintain insurance coverage on all
inventory and other property constituting Northstar's and
Firstlease's collateral.  

The Debtor was also directed to provide Northstar and Firstlease:

     (a) copies of its Monthly Operating Report,

     (b) copies of its sales report,

     (c) full consolidated amount of funds on hand,

     (d) full accounting of all revenues received and spent since
the Petition date, and

     (e) a copy of the Debtor's DIP Bank statement.

The Debtor was ordered to provide monthly adequate protection
payments in the amount of $964 to Northstar, beginning on January
20, 2017 and continuing on the 20th day of each following month
until confirmation of a plan of reorganization, conversion of the
case to a Chapter 7 case, or dismissal of its case.

The Debtor's authorization to use cash collateral will continue
until the earlier of:

     (a) the effective date of the confirmation of a plan of
reorganization, including a plan of liquidation;

     (b) the sale of substantially all the assets of the Debtor and
the payment of the proceeds therefrom to the alleged secured
creditors which have been determined by the Court to be secured
creditor;

     (c) the conversion of the Debtor's case to a case under
Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code; or

     (d)  the dismissal of the Debtor's case.

No. 16-42145), on November 29, 2016.  The Petition was signed by

ZAYO GROUP: S&P Raises CCR to 'B+', Off CreditWatch Positive
------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it raised its corporate credit rating on
Boulder, Colo.-based Zayo Group LLC to 'B+' from 'B' and removed
all ratings from CreditWatch, where S&P had placed them with
positive implications on Nov. 30, 2016.  The outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P assigned its 'BB' issue-level rating and '1'
recovery rating to the company's proposed $650 million term loan
B-2 due 2024 and raised our existing issue-level ratings on the
company's secured debt to 'BB' from 'BB-'.  The recovery rating
remains '1', indicating S&P's expectation for substantial recovery
(90%-100%) in a payment default scenario.  S&P also assigned its
'B' issue-level rating and '5' recovery rating to the company's
proposed $800 million senior unsecured notes and raised S&P's
issue-level ratings on the company's existing unsecured debt to 'B'
from 'B-'.  The recovery rating remains '5', indicating S&P's
expectation for meaningful (10%-30%; lower end of the range)
recovery in the event of a payment default.

"The upgrade reflects our increased confidence in the cash flow
stability of the business stemming from the company's significant
scale, customer diversity, national footprint, dark fiber exposure,
and favorable industry trends," said S&P Global Ratings credit
analyst William Savage.

Zayo's nationwide market position and high-quality network assets
allow it to compete favorably among both the carrier and enterprise
customer segments.  The company's fiber network now has 114,000
route miles, 8.9 million fiber miles, over 4,500 cell towers, and
62 data centers in over 300 metro markets, including New York,
Chicago, San Francisco, Paris, and London.  S&P believes continued
market demand for bandwidth, driven by the usage of
bandwidth-intensive applications, such as video over IP,
cloud-based applications, mobile devices (tablets and phones), and
more connected devices in general will exceed data infrastructure
supply growth over the next few years.  Longer term, S&P believes
Zayo is well positioned to provide fiber backhaul to wireless
carriers using 5G technology. Zayo also benefits from its recurring
revenue business model with multiple-year contracts and sizable
contractual revenue backlog, which help to provide good earnings
visibility.

The stable outlook on Zayo Group LLC reflects the company's good
growth prospects balanced by what S&P considers to be a highly
leveraged financial risk profile and aggressive expansion policies.
S&P believes leverage will remain elevated between 5x-6x for the
foreseeable future, but that liquidity should remain adequate given
the company's healthy operating cash flow and revolver
availability.

[*] S&P Revises Issue Ratings for 10 Companies in Chemicals Sector
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has reviewed its recovery and
issue-level ratings in the U.S. chemicals sector for
speculative-grade corporate issuers 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 revising issue-level and recovery ratings as appropriate.

This release pertains to rated companies in the U.S. chemicals
sector.  The ratings list below is arranged alphabetically by
issuer and identifies the debt instruments with ratings changes. As
an overview, S&P is revising the issue-level ratings for 10 issuers


The rating actions include upgrades and downgrades for seven
issuers.  For five issuers, the rating actions resulted from a
revision to the recovery rating on the debt instrument.  For the
remaining two issuers, the recovery ratings on the secured debt are
unchanged and the issue-level rating changes resulted because S&P
now caps issue ratings for most speculative-grade (rated 'BB+' and
lower) issuers at 'BBB-', regardless of S&P's recovery rating.

This change deemphasizes the weight recovery plays in up-notching
issue ratings for issuers near the investment-grade (rated 'BBB-'
and higher) threshold, since recovery is a smaller component of
credit risk when default risk is more remote and because recovery
prospects may be less predictable and more variable for these
issuers.  This revision does not reflect a change in S&P's
assessment of the company's default risk, which is indicated by
S&P's corporate credit rating, or our opinion of recovery given
default, which is indicated by its recovery ratings.

In addition, S&P revised its recovery ratings on debt instruments
for two issuers to '3' from '4' and for one issuer to '4' from '3'
as a result of S&P's new recovery criteria.  Since these revisions
do not result in issue-level rating changes, S&P is affirming the
issue-level ratings for the affected debt.  S&P's issue-level and
recovery ratings for one issuer remain unchanged.

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.

                            *********

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.
