ACRISURE HOLDINGS: S&P Affirms 'B' ICR on Debt Issuance & Add-On
----------------------------------------------------------------
Insurance broker Acrisure is issuing a $325 million first-lien term
loan add-on and $725 million in senior notes to fund acquisitions
under signed letters of intent (LOIs) and to repay its existing
second-lien term loan.

S&P Global Ratings said it affirmed its 'B' long-term issuer credit
rating on Acrisure Holdings Inc. and its core subsidiaries. The
outlook is stable. At the same time, S&P affirmed its 'B'
issue-level ratings on the company's first-lien credit facilities:
the $200 million revolver due 2021 and upsized $2.2 billion term
loan due 2023 (including the existing $1.9 billion term loan and
$325 million add-on term loan). The recovery ratings on these debt
issues are '3(65%)' indicating S&P's expectation for meaningful
recovery in the event of a default.

S&P said, "We also assigned our 'CCC+' issue-level rating to the
company's new $725 million senior notes with a recovery rating of
'6(0%)' indicating our expectation for negligible recovery in the
event of a default."

S&P said, "The rating affirmation reflects our view that Acrisure's
credit measures post-issuance will remain stable and within our
expectations. We expect the company to use the proceeds from the
incremental term loan and new senior notes to fund pending and
planned acquisitions closing in the next six months and to repay
the existing $605 million second-lien term loan. Given the
company's continued favorable performance and track record for
effectively integrating acquisitions, we expect it to successfully
absorb its acquisitions. We assess the deal as relatively leverage
neutral with pro forma debt to EBITDA of about 7.1x and EBITDA
interest coverage of 2.5x. The company will restrict $420 million
of the debt proceeds in a segregated fund earmarked for
acquisitions in the next nine months. Afterward, it will use any
outstanding balances to pay down the first-lien term loan. Due to
the restricted nature of the segregated fund, we net 100% of
outstanding segregated cash against debt in our leverage
calculations.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectations that Acrisure's
expertise in the middle-market insurance brokerage industry will
enable it to maintain strong cash-flow generation, with organic
revenue growth in the mid-single digits and margins in the mid-30%
area. We expect the company's aggressive acquisition strategy to
offset some of the deleveraging that will occur from higher cash
flows arising from increased scale and modest organic growth. Under
our base case, we expect adjusted debt to EBITDA (pro forma for
annualized earnings from mergers and acquisitions) of 7.0x-7.5x and
EBITDA interest coverage in the mid 2.0x for 2017-2018.

"We could lower our ratings in the next 12 months if we believe
Acrisure's organic growth, cash-flow generation, or margins erode
meaningfully, putting pressure on strategic execution and
weaker-than-forecast credit protection measures with financial
leverage sustained above 7.5x-8x and EBITDA coverage below 2.0x. We
could also consider a downgrade if Acrisure becomes more aggressive
with its financial policies so that debt-financed dividends lead to
credit protection measures in the same range.

"Although unlikely within the next 12 months, we could raise the
ratings if the company's performance were to meaningfully exceed
our expectations and it used substantial amounts of cash to reduce
debt with leverage under 5.0x and coverage of 3x. An upgrade would
also be predicated on our belief that these improvements in credit
measures are sustainable."


AEROGROUP INT'L: Unsecureds to Get Nothing Under Joint Plan
-----------------------------------------------------------
Aerogroup International, Inc., and affiliates filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware a disclosure
statement for their joint plan of reorganization dated Oct. 24,
2017.

The Plan contemplates the Reorganization of the Debtors through an
Aerogroup ICPO Transaction, which may be preceded by or
contemporaneous with the Non-IP Sales of the Non-IP Assets, which
are any assets not retained as a part of the Aerogroup ICPO
Transaction or otherwise required by the Reorganized Debtors to
operate their business. The Plan further maintains the Debtors'
ability to effect the Reorganization through an Alternative
Transaction. In connection with the Aerogroup ICPO Transaction, a
new entity, Aerogroup IPCO, will be formed and the Debtors will
transfer all of their Intellectual Property to such entity.
Aerogroup IPCO will then enter into the IPCO License Agreements
with one or more licensees in exchange for an upfront payment and
an agreed stream of royalty payments or other agreed compensation
from such licensees.

On the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors will fund the Term
Loan Exit Paydown and issue the Term Loan Exit Notes that will
restructure the remaining Prepetition Term Loan Facility. Also on
the Effective Date, Equity Interests in the Debtors will be
canceled and Reorganized Holdco will issue the Reorganized Holdco
Equity to the Holders of the Term Loan Claims, Holders of the
Senior Notes Claims, and Holders of the Subordinated Notes Claims.
In the Reorganization, the Debtors anticipate that the vast
majority, or all, of their retail locations, will close and
accordingly, the Reorganized Debtors' operations will be downsized.
The Debtors will pursue the Reorganization absent obtaining higher
and otherwise better offers.

In the event that the Reorganization cannot be effected, the
Debtors will proceed with the Liquidation Scenario to ensure
maximization of the value of their Assets. The Liquidation Scenario
contemplates the distribution of proceeds from the Section 363 Sale
pursuant to Liquidation Waterfall and a wind-down of all Debtor
entities. Under this scenario, a Plan Administrator would be
appointed to effectuate the liquidation of any remaining assets,
implement the Plan, and wind-down the Debtor entities.

Holders of General Unsecured Claims will not be entitled to receive
or retain any Distributions or other property on account of such
General Unsecured Claims under the Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, all
Allowed General Unsecured Claims against the Debtors will be
deemed, settled, canceled, extinguished and discharged on the
Effective Date.

AJUBEO LLC: Sale of All Assets to Green House for $1.9M Approved
----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Joseph G. Rosania, Jr. of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Colorado authorized Ajubeo, LLC's sale of substantially
all assets to Green House Data, Inc., for $1,945,798.

The Sale Hearing was held on Oct. 31, 2017.

Pursuant to paragraph 20 of the Final DIP Order and section 4(c)(v)
of the Bidding Procedures, the Successful Bidder has credit-bid the
amounts due under the DIP Loan against the Purchase Price, and the
cash portion of the Purchase Price will be reduced accordingly.

Proceeds from the Sale will be paid in cash at Closing as follows:
first, to Alliance in the amount of its Success Fee; and to the
Debtor in the amount of the estimated Closing Costs up to $320,000;
for the avoidance of any doubt, such amounts are carved out of
Silicon Valley Bank's ("SVB") and Integrity Capital Income Fund,
Inc.'s prepetition liens and will be set aside and used solely to
pay the Closing Costs; second, to SVB for immediate application to
the SVB Obligations3 up to the full amount outstanding; and third,
to the Debtor pending further order of the Court.

The sale is free and clear of all Encumbrances, with all
Encumbrances to be unconditionally released, discharged, and
terminated as to  the Purchased Assets at such time, provided,
however, that the SVB Liens will attach to the proceeds of the
Purchased Assets until such time as the SVB Obligations have been
indefeasibly repaid in full.

The Debtor is authorized and directed to assume and assign to the
Successful Bidder the Assumed Contracts.  Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in the Sale Order, no Assumed Contract will be
assumed and assigned to the Successful Bidder until the Closing.

The monthly lease payments due to Farnam and Data Sales under their
respective Contracts during such 60 day period after the Closing
Date (in the amount of $103,114 per month, with respect to Farnam)
will be (i) set aside and reserved by the Debtor from the Closing
Costs ("Equipment Lease Reserve"), and (ii) paid directly to Farnam
and Data Sales as and when they come due pursuant to the applicable
Contract out of the Equipment Lease Reserve.  During the 60-day
period after the Closing Date, the Successful Bidder will not be
permitted to access or use the equipment subject to Farnam's lease
absent Farnam's consent.

Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h) and 6006(d), the
effectiveness of the Sale Order will not be stayed for 14 days
after entry on the docket.  The Sale Order will be effective and
enforceable immediately upon entry.  The Successful Bidder and the
Debtor are authorized to consummate the Sale and cause the Closing
to occur as promptly as is practicable following the entry of the
Sale Order.

ALLIANCE PROCESSORS: Plan Outline Okayed, Plan Hearing on Nov. 20
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas is set
to hold a hearing on Nov. 20 to consider approval of the Chapter 11
plan of reorganization for Alliance Processors, Inc.

The court had earlier approved the company' disclosure statement,
allowing it to start soliciting votes from creditors.  

The order, signed by Judge Mark Mullin on Oct. 19, set a Nov. 17
deadline for creditors to file their objections and cast their
votes accepting or rejecting the plan.

Under the company's latest plan, creditors holding Class 5 general
unsecured claims in the estimated amount of $2,244,932 will be paid
8.9% of their claims.

Alliance Processors explained in its latest disclosure statement
that it won't be able to pay all unsecured claims in full but it
will be able to make some payments over time to unsecured creditors
if it is able to confirm the plan and stay in business.

If the plan is not confirmed, the most likely consequence will be
that the business will close, the available assets will be used to
satisfy administrative and secured claims, and unsecured creditors
will receive nothing, according to the company.

Alliance Processors further said that it has decided to offer cash
to its creditors rather than stock because it does not believe that
equity interests would provide creditors with any "meaningful
value."

The company explained that on a balance sheet basis, its equity has
a negative value and that a creditor receiving stock would likely
find it difficult to resell the stock interests because they likely
have no current value.  Alliance Processors also explained that it
is a closely-held company that depends on its sole shareholder to
run it.  

A copy of the latest disclosure statement is available for free at
http://bankrupt.com/misc/txnb16-40261-246.pdf

                   About Alliance Processors

Alliance Processors, Inc. sought protection under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code in the Northern District of Texas (Ft. Worth)(Case
No. 16-402611) on Jan. 18, 2016.

The petition was signed by Harvey L. Earles, president.  The case
is assigned to Judge Mark X. Mullin.

The Debtor estimated both assets and liabilities in the range of $1
million to $10 million.

No trustee, examiner or committee has been appointed.


ALLIED ELECTRICAL: 30% Recovery for Unsecured Creditors Under Plan
------------------------------------------------------------------
Allied Electrical Group of Texas, Inc., filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas a disclosure
statement, dated Oct. 24, 2017, describing its proposed plan of
reorganization.

The Plan provides for the payment of administrative claims in full
on the effective date of the Plan or as agreed in separate writing
with the claimant. The Plan also provides for payment in full of
the Priority Tax Claim of the Internal Revenue Service as provided
by the Bankruptcy Code or as agreed by the claimant. The secured
claim of the IRS will receive a distribution of 100% in monthly
installments. General unsecured creditors will receive a
distribution of 30% of the amount of their allowed claims following
confirmation of the Plan. The Debtor estimates the current unpaid
unsecured creditor class as $130,018.45, including the $1,350.94
general unsecured claim of the IRS.

Payments and distributions under the Plan will be funded by income
from operations. The Debtor's income stems from the operation of
Debtor's commercial electrical service and contracting business.

Allied Electrical Group of Texas, Inc., filed a Chapter 11 petition
(Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 17-31585) on April 20, 2017.

Rea, Esq., at McGuire Craddock Strother PC.  The petition was

time of filing, the Debtor estimated assets and liabilities ranging

AMBOY GROUP: Seeks Approval on $500K Financing, Cash Collateral Use
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Amboy Group LLC and CLU Amboy, LLC, seek authorization from the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey to obtain
senior secured postpetition financing from Primary Capital Partners
and to utilize the cash collateral of its prepetition lender,
Newtek Small Business Finance LLC.

Amboy Group has determined that a post-petition credit facility is
needed to support its potential working capital needs as it
attempts to reorganize. To that end, Primary Capital has agreed to
provide Amboy Group with a post-petition credit facility in the
principal amount of up to $500,000. The DIP Financing is to be
disbursed to Amboy Group either in lump sum or through a series of
loans upon request by Amboy Group. Any amount of the DIP Financing
disbursed to Amboy Group will accrue annual interest at the rate of
12%. The DIP Financing will be due and payable no later than
October 31, 2018.

Primary Capital requires, however, that it be provided with a
superpriority security interest in all of Amboy Group's
"accessions, accounts, inventory, equipment, fixtures, books and
records, chattel paper, documents, general intangibles,
instruments, investment property, money, payment intangibles,
promissory notes, securities, and supporting obligations," up to
the amount of the DIP Financing.

In addition, the Debtors intend to use cash collateral for the
purpose of operating and managing their respective businesses, for
payment of professional fees, and for paying fees required to be
paid to the U.S. Trustee, all in accordance with the Budget.

The Debtors believe that Newtek is fully secured, as the value of
the Debtors' assets is substantially higher than the amount of
Newtek's claim -- there is approximately $2.3 million in an equity
cushion above Newtek's second and third mortgages on the Facility.


Moreover, the post-petition generation of accounts receivable and
cash by the Amboy Group will be in excess of the amounts used by
the Debtors pursuant to its Budget.  In addition, the Debtor will
make monthly payments to Newtek.  Thus, the Debtors assert that
Newtek's cash collateral is not diminishing in value and Newtek is
adequately protected.

As additional adequate protection, Newtek will be granted: (a)
replacement liens on and security interests in all of the Debtors'
property and assets, other than the post-petition account
receivables, and (b) allowed superpriority claims pursuant to
Section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, senior to all other
administrative claims.

ARMSTRONG ENERGY: Bondholders, Knight Energy Have $90MM Credit Bid
------------------------------------------------------------------
After more than a year of diligence and arm's-length negotiations,
Armstrong Energy, Inc., reached a global agreement with (a) ad hoc
group of the Debtors' senior secured noteholders holding
approximately $156 million in aggregate principal amount
(representing approximately 78% of the outstanding principal
amount), (b) the Debtors' primary mineral rights provider
(Thoroughbred Resources, L.P.), (c) Knight Hawk, and (d) the
Debtors' approximately 97% shareholder (Rhino Resource Partners
Holdings, LLC ("RRHP")), which was memorialized in a restructuring
support agreement.

As contemplated under the RSA, the Debtors, the Bondholder Group,
and Knight Hawk entered into a Transaction Agreement, dated as of
November 1, 2017 (the "Transaction Agreement").  The Plan
implements the Transaction Agreement, which will result in the
Bondholder Group acquiring substantially all of the Debtors assets
under a chapter 11 plan (the "Sale Transaction").

Pursuant to the terms of the proposed restructuring, (a) the
Debtors will file a motion seeking approval of an expense
reimbursement for Knight Hawk shortly after the filing of the
chapter 11 cases, (b) the Debtors will market their assets for an
additional 45 days postpetition as a supplement to their already
extensive prepetition marketing efforts, (c) the Debtors will
create a new holding company ("HoldCo") and a new subsidiary of
HoldCo ("NewCo") to which they will transfer substantially all of
their assets (the "Transferred Assets") and certain of their
liabilities; (d) the Debtors' secured noteholders will acquire 100%
of the equity in HoldCo in satisfaction of not less than $90
million of the secured noteholders' claims; and (e) Knight Hawk,
who will operate the Debtor's assets post-closing, will receive a
portion of the equity in HoldCo in exchange for providing NewCo
with the funding necessary to pay all Cure Costs, in full, and in
Cash, associated with the assumption and assignment to NewCo of
certain of the Debtors' contracts and leases.

The RSA contains a number of milestones calculated to move the
chapter 11 cases forward in an efficient and expedient manner.
These include that: (a) within seven days of the Petition Date, the
Debtors will file a plan and disclosure statement; (b) within 31
days of the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court will have approved
an expense reimbursement for the Buyer; (c) within 60 days of the
Petition Date the Bankruptcy Court will have entered an order
approving the disclosure statement; (d) within 100 days of the
Petition Date the Plan will have been confirmed; and (e) within 15
days of the date of the order confirming the Plan and approving the
Sale Transaction, the effective date of the Plan and the closing of
the Sale Transaction will have occurred.

The Sale Transaction and Plan provide a number of notable benefits
to the Debtors and their estates, including:

   * holders of secured notes claims arising under the Indenture,
in satisfaction of $90 million of their indebtedness, will receive
equity in an entity holding substantially all of the Debtors'
assets, and will also receive their pro rata share of the proceeds
of certain remaining collateral securing their claims after setting
aside sufficient funds to administer the wind down of the chapter
11 cases;

   * the Buyer will assume all of the Debtors' asset retirement
obligations;

   * the Buyer will pay all cure costs, in cash, for contracts and
leases to be assumed and assigned to the Buyer;

   * administrative expense claims and prepetition priority claims
(including tax claims) will be paid in full upon emergence (or, in
the case of priority tax claims, treated in accordance with Section
1129(a)(9)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code);

   * other secured claims will be treated in such a manner that
they are unimpaired;

   * holders of general unsecured claims (including any deficiency
claims) against each of the Debtors will receive their pro rata
share of certain residual and unencumbered assets of the Debtors'
estates after all senior claims have been satisfied; and

   * existing equity interests in the Debtors will be cancelled
without any distribution to the holders of such interests.

Between Oct. 5, 2017 -- the date the RSA was executed -- and the
Petition Date, the Debtors and the Support Parties diligently
worked to finalize the terms of the Transaction Agreement, the form
of expense reimbursement motion, the Plan and related disclosure
statement, and the documents to be included in the proposed plan
supplement.  The Debtors enter these cases ready to capitalize on
their prepetition efforts and quickly emerge from chapter 11.

                          Consideration

Pursuant to the RSA, an LLC to be formed ("NewCo") will submit a
credit bid in the amount of the secured notes to acquire assets of
the Company free and clear of all liens and encumbrances pursuant
to a sale effectuated pursuant to a plan under Sections 363 and
1123(b)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code, subject to these terms:

    * Credit bid will be in the face amount of $90 million of the
Secured Notes.

    * For the avoidance of doubt, any deficiency claim held by the
Secured Notes is entitled to its pro rata share of unencumbered
assets.

    * NewCo will be entitled to certain Bid Protections including
reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by Knight Hawk
in connection with the investigation, negotiation, documentation or
otherwise related to the contemplated transaction ("Expense
Reimbursement") in an amount no greater than $1,000,000, which will
be assigned by NewCo to Knight Hawk.

   * Knight Hawk will provide NewCo with the funding necessary to
pay all cure costs, in full, in Cash, associated with the assumed
contracts, assumed leases, and royalty agreements.

At closing and in exchange for 51% of the equity of NewCo, Knight
Hawk will make an equity contribution to NewCo sufficient to pay
all cure costs, purchase the coal inventory, adequately capitalize
NewCo and satisfy current liabilities.

ARMSTRONG ENERGY: Shareholders Out of the Money Under Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Armstrong Energy, Inc., sought Chapter 11 protection after reaching
terms of a Chapter 11 plan that would (i) transfer of substantially
all of its assets to a new entity to be jointly owned by Knight
Hawk Holdings, LLC ("Knight Hawk") and the Company's secured
noteholders, and (ii) pay unsecured creditors each a pro-rata share
of certain residual and unencumbered assets of the Debtors' estates
after all senior claims have been satisfied.

The Debtors are a producer of low-chlorine, high-sulfur thermal
coal from the Illinois Basin in Western Kentucky.  They market
their coal primarily to proximate and investment grade electric
utility companies as fuel for steam-powered generators. Over the
past several years, the Debtors and other coal producers in the
United States have encountered a series of macroeconomic hurdles,
including reduced demand for coal and lower coal prices,
precipitated by slow economic growth, an abundance of extremely
low-priced natural gas, and increased regulatory burdens.

Alan Boyko, the Chief Restructuring Officer, explains that as U.S.
natural gas production hit a record high in 2015, the abundance of
inexpensive natural gas put severe pressure on the coal industry,
which could not compete with natural gas pricing.  At the end of
2016, U.S. coal volumes and Illinois Basin thermal coal prices had
both declined by more than 25 percent from 2012 levels.  The
decline in demand combined with low coal prices substantially
reduced the Debtors' revenues and cash flows.

According to Mr. Boyko, these macroeconomic factors, coupled with
the Debtors' substantial debt obligations and operational costs,
strained the Debtors' ability to sustain the weight of their
capital structure and devote the necessary capital to maintain and
grow their business.  While the Debtors took steps to stabilize
their financials through internal operational changes, they also
retained Kirkland & Ellis LLP as legal counsel in April 2016 and
MAEVA Group, LLC ("MAEVA") as financial advisor in May 2016 to
advise the Debtors' management and board of directors regarding
potential strategic alternatives to enhance the Debtors' liquidity
position and address their capital constraints during this
commodity downturn.

Throughout 2016, to evaluate their options with regard to a
potential restructuring, the Debtors and their advisors marketed
the Debtors' assets and engaged in extensive discussions with
several candidates regarding the acquisition of their business.
During this process, the Debtors received several non-binding
letters of interest, including one from mineral-operator Knight
Hawk Holdings, LLC.  Ultimately, however, the Debtors decided not
to pursue these bids further due to a lack of interest from their
primary stakeholders.

The Debtors and their advisors maintained an open dialogue with
their primary stakeholders during this process, and over the past
year have had numerous discussions with their major equity holders,
funds held or managed by Yorktown Partners LLC, an ad hoc group of
the Debtors' senior secured noteholders holding approximately $156
million in aggregate principal amount (representing approximately
78 percent of the outstanding principal amount) (the "Bondholder
Group"), and their respective advisors regarding various standalone
restructuring options, including both in-court and out-of-court
transactions. Despite exchanging term sheets with the Bondholder
Group regarding a standalone restructuring, the Debtors were unable
to reach a consensus with their stakeholders by the middle of 2017
as to a path forward.

To preserve liquidity in the face of an uncertain path forward, the
Debtors elected to forgo a June 15, 2017 interest payment on their
senior secured notes (the "Interest Payment") and enter into a
30-day grace period under their indenture.  As that grace period
neared its expiration in July, the Debtors and the Bondholder Group
entered into a forbearance agreement regarding the Interest Payment
to give the parties more time to collaborate on a consensual
restructuring transaction. During the forbearance period, the
Debtors retained FTI Consulting, Inc., as a restructuring advisor
and the Debtors appointed me as chief restructuring officer,
effective as of August 14, 2017.  As the Debtors and the Bondholder
Group worked towards their common goal, the forbearance period was
extended a number of times, with the final forbearance period
extended through Oct. 31, 2017.

Ultimately, the Debtors and the Bondholder Group were able to
negotiate a consensual and comprehensive restructuring that
involved the Debtors' other major stakeholders.

More specifically, after more than a year of diligence and
arm's-length negotiations with the Bondholder Group, the Debtors
reached an agreement with (a) the Bondholder Group, (b) the
Debtors' primary mineral rights provider (Thoroughbred Resources,
L.P. ("Thoroughbred")), (c) Knight Hawk, and (d) the Debtors'
approximately 97-percent shareholder (Rhino Resource Partners
Holdings, LLC ("RRHP")), which was memorialized in a restructuring
support agreement.  Pursuant to the RSA, the Debtors, the
Bondholder Group, Thoroughbred, Knight Hawk, and RRHP
(collectively, the "Support Parties") have committed to support a
restructuring that will maximize stakeholder recoveries and pave
the way for a sale of substantially all of the Debtors' assets
under a chapter 11 plan.

The Debtors commenced these chapter 11 cases to implement the RSA's
transactions and intend to close on the sale of substantially all
of their assets no later than February 24, 2018—115 days after
the Petition Date.

Due in large part to the broad stakeholder support for the proposed
restructuring transactions and the value that such transactions
will create, the Debtors believe the Plan represents the best and
highest outcome available for the Debtors' estates.

The Plan generally provides for the following treatment of claims
and interests:

   * administrative expense claims and prepetition priority claims
(including tax claims) will be paid in full upon emergence (or, in
the case of priority tax claims, treated in accordance with section
1129(a)(9)(C) of the Bankruptcy Code);

   * holders of senior secured notes claims will serve as a
stalking horse that will receive 100 percent of the equity in an
entity holding substantially all of the Debtors' assets in exchange
for the satisfaction of $90 million of their indebtedness and will
receive their pro rata share of the remaining collateral securing
their claims;

   * other secured claims will be treated in such a manner that
they are unimpaired;

   * holders of general unsecured claims (including any deficiency
claims) against each of the Debtors will receive their pro rata
share of certain residual and unencumbered assets of the Debtors'
estates after all senior claims have been satisfied; and

   * existing equity interests in the Debtors will be cancelled
without any distribution to the holders of such interests.

Documents filed with the Court did not provide for an estimated
percentage recovery by general unsecured creditors.

Importantly, the RSA preserves the Debtors' ability to solicit
potential alternative restructuring transactions and consider any
such proposals from third parties.  Indeed, the Debtors will run a
postpetition marketing process for 45 days.  In addition, the RSA
expressly reserves the Debtors' ability to take any action to
maximize the value of their estates in accordance with their
fiduciary duties, as the RSA contemplates a "fiduciary out" that
permits the Debtors to consummate a transaction that proves
superior to the one set forth in the RSA.

                  Prepetition Capital Structure

Armstrong Energy, Inc., as issuer, and Armstrong Air, LLC,
Armstrong Coal Company, Inc., Armstrong Energy Holdings, Inc.,
Western Diamond LLC, Western Land Company, LLC, Armstrong Coal
Sales, LLC, Thoroughfare Mining, LLC, and Armstrong Logistics
Services, LLC, as guarantors, are party to that certain indenture
dated as of December 21, 2012 by and between Armstrong and Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association, as indenture trustee and
collateral agent, under which the Armstrong issued certain senior
secured notes (the "Senior Secured Notes").  The Senior Secured
Notes mature in 2019 and carry an interest rate of 11.75%, with
interest compounding semi-annually.  As of the Petition Date,
approximately $200 million aggregate principal amount of Senior
Secured Notes were outstanding.

Like other coal companies, the Debtors have asset retirement
obligations that include both reclamation and selenium water
treatment.  As of Dec. 31, 2016 and 2015, the Debtors' balance
sheets reflected asset retirement obligation liabilities of $14.2
million and $14.1 million, respectively, including amounts
classified as a current liability.

There is no established public trading market for Armstrong's
common stock.  Instead, the majority of the issued and outstanding
common stock of Armstrong Energy, Inc. is held by members of
management or Rhino Resource Partners Holdings, LLC.  As of March
30, 2017, there were approximately 22 holders of record of
Armstrong's common stock and there were 21,883,224 shares of
Armstrong Energy, Inc.'s common stock outstanding.

AUTHENTIC GELATO: Sale of All Assets to Sinelli for $2M Approved
----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Harlin DeWayne Hale of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Texas authorized Paciugo Holdings, LLC, and
its debtor affiliates to sell substantially all their assets to
Sinelli Concepts International, Inc., or its designee, for (i)
$2,000,000 in cash (inclusive of the $200,000 security deposit
already paid to the Debtors), as adjusted by the Working Capital
Adjustment in accordance with the Purchase Agreement; and (ii) the
assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, including the payment of all
Current Liabilities.

The Debtors conducted an Auction on Oct. 23, 2017.  The Debtors
selected the final bid of the Buyer as the Successful Back-Up Bid,
and the JxP Capital, LLC as the Successful Back-Up Bidder.  No
other person or entity or group of entities has offered to purchase
the Purchased Assets for greater economic value to the Debtors'
estates than the Successful Bidder.

The sale is "as is, where is" with all faults, without
representations or warranties whatsoever, whether express or
implied, and free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances, and
other interests.  All liens, claims, encumbrances, and other
interests in any of the Purchased Assets will attach to the
proceeds received by the Debtors under the Purchase Agreement.

The Debtors are authorized to assume each Assumed Contract and
assign each such Assumed Contract to the Purchaser.  In addition,
to the extent provided herein or announced on the record at the
hearing, the Debtors are authorized to assume each Franchisee Lease
and assign each such lease to the franchisee currently operating a
Paciugo store in the leased premises.

Upon the Closing and consummation of the Purchase Agreement and the
transactions described therein, the Purchaser will have assumed
those Assumed Liabilities expressly enumerated or described in the
Purchase Agreement and the Order.

In the event the Purchaser does not close and consummate the Sale
and related transactions as required in the Order and in the
Purchase Agreement, the Debtors are authorized to take all steps
necessary or desirable to consummate a Sale or other comparable
transaction with the Successful Back-Up Bidder.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h) and
6006(d), the Order will not be stayed for any length of time after
its entry and will be effective immediately upon entry, and the
Debtors and the Purchaser are authorized to close the transactions
immediately upon entry of the Order.  The Order is a Final Order
and the period in which an appeal must be filed will commence upon
the entry of the Order.  Any party objecting to the Order must
exercise due diligence in filing an appeal and pursuing a stay, or
risk its appeal being foreclosed as moot.

The Debtors contemplate that the Franchisee Lease with Stonebriar
Mall, LLC will be assigned to the designee of the existing
franchisee in that location in connection with a sale of that
franchise by the existing franchisee ("Franchisee Sale").  In
connection with such Franchisee Sale and with respect to the
assumption and assignment of the Stonebriar Lease, the assignee of
the Franchisee Lease will provide Stonebriar Mall, LLC, as adequate
assurance of future performance of its obligations under such
lease, with (i) a security deposit in the amount of $23,750,
representing three months' rent and expenses under the Stonebriar
Lease; and (ii) evidence of insurance coverage as required under
the terms of the Stonebriar Lease.

The assumption and assignment of the Stonebriar Lease will be
conditioned on the closing of the sale of the existing franchise by
DBJ Ventures, Inc. and, in the event such sale is not consummated,
the Debtors will be free to further exercise their rights to
assume, assume and assign, or reject the Stonebriar Lease.
Following the closing of the Franchisee Sale and payment of the
Stonebriar Deposit by the assignee as provided, Stonebriar Mall
will refund the existing security deposit of $6,600 to the Debtors
or their designee.

BADLANDS ENERGY: Crescent Buying All Badlands Energy-Utah Assets
----------------------------------------------------------------
Badlands Energy-Utah, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Colorado to authorize its Purchase and Sale Agreement
with Crescent Point Energy U.S. Corp. in connection with the sale
of substantially all assets for $10.1 million and the assumption of
specified liabilities and obligations of the Debtor.

Driven by current market conditions, the liquidity constraints of
the Debtor and its affiliates, Badlands Energy, Inc., Badlands
Production Co., and Myton Oilfield Rentals, LLC, have prevented
them from increasing their oil and gas production and proved
productive reserves.  Continuation of their business without new
capital would diminish the value of their assets.  Accordingly, a
sale or sales of substantially all of the Debtors' assets to the
highest or best bidder(s) is in the best interests of their estates
and creditors.

Earlier this year, the Debtors retained Parkman Whaling LLC ("PW")
as investment bankers in connection with restructuring, and a
potential sale, merger, or other disposition of all or a portion of
the Debtors and their assets.  The Debtors and PW canvassed
interested parties, solicited bids, and assisted interested buyers
in completing initial due diligence toward a sale or sales of their
assets.  

The Debtors solicited bids before the Petition Date for all or some
of their assets, resulting in a stalking horse purchaser for the
Riverbend assets of Badlands Production.  With respect to those
Riverbend assets of Badlands Production, on Oct. 26, 2017, the
Court approved Badlands Production's sale of substantially all
assets to Wapiti Utah, LLC.  The Debtors and PW continued to market
the South Altamont assets and field office assets of the Debtor and
Myton Oilfield during the Riverbend sale process.

Pursuant to the Court's Bid Procedures Order, the Debtors solicited
any and all bids for the sale of the Debtor's South Altamont assets
and field office assets of Myton Oilfield.  After receiving
multiple bids on Oct. 20, 2017, the Debtors convened an auction on
Oct. 26, 2017.

Crescent Point has been identified as the Successful Bidder for the
South Altamont assets of the Debtor ("Property").  Through the
Motion, and in accordance with the Bid Procedures Order, the Debtor
asks of an order approving the Purchase and Sale Agreement with
Crescent Point.  Under the Purchase Agreement, Crescent Point
proposes to purchase substantially all of the Debtor's assets for a
Base Purchase Price of $10.1 million and the assumption of
specified liabilities and obligations of the Debtor.  

The Property will be sold free and clear of liens, claims,
encumbrances, and other interests.  Upon execution of the
Agreement, the Purchaser will deliver a performance deposit of 10%
of the purchase price.  The closing will be held 15 business days
after the Sale Order has been entered by the Court at the offices
of the counsel for the Debtors.

To facilitate and effectuate the sale of the Property, the Debtor
asks authority to assign or transfer the Assumed Contracts to
Crescent Point, as reflected in Schedule 2(a) of the final form of
Purchase Agreement.  The Debtor reserves the right to file and
serve before the Sale Hearing any supplemental pleading or
declaration that it deems appropriate or necessary in its
reasonable business judgment, including any pleading summarizing
the competitive bidding and sale process and the results thereof,
in support of its request for entry of the Sale Order.

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

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/Badland_Energy_231_Sales.pdf

The Debtor believes a prompt Sale of the Property represents the
best alternative available for all stakeholders in its chapter 11
case.  Moreover, it is critical for the Debtor to execute on the
proposed Sale transaction within the timeframe contemplated by the
Bid Procedures Order and DIP financing and cash collateral order
entered on Sept. 14, 2017 ("DIP Order").  The delays in the sale
process may trigger an event of default under the DIP Order, among
other things.

On Oct. 18, 2017, the Debtors filed and served their Notice of
Auction and Sale Hearing under the Bid Procedures Order, serving
notice of the date of the auction and the date of the Sale Hearing
on more than 1,000 creditors and parties in interest, including a
list of potentially interested purchasers as reflected in the
certificate of service.

To maximize the value received for the Property, the Debtor asks to
close the Sale as soon as possible after the Sale Hearing.
Accordingly, the Debtor asks that the Court waives the 14-day stay
period under Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h) and 6006(d).

Initially operating as a public company known as Gasco Energy,
Inc., the Company underwent a restructuring that was completed in
October 2013.  This resulted in a recapitalization followed by
taking the company private.  The final step in this was a name

BADLANDS ENERGY: Wapiti Buying All Assets of Myton for $400K
------------------------------------------------------------
Myton Oilfield Rentals, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Colorado to authorize its Real Estate Sale Contract
with Wapiti Utah, LLC in connection with the sale of field office
assets and substantially all assets for $400,000.

Driven by current market conditions, the liquidity constraints of
the Debtor and its affiliates, Badlands Energy, Inc., Badlands
Production Co., and Badlands Energy-Utah, LLC, have prevented them
from increasing their oil and gas production and proved productive
reserves.  Continuation of their business without new capital would
diminish the value of their assets.  Accordingly, a sale or sales
of substantially all of the Debtors' assets to the highest or best
bidder(s) is in the best interests of their estates and creditors.

Earlier this year, the Debtors retained Parkman Whaling LLC ("PW")
as investment bankers in connection with restructuring, and a
potential sale, merger, or other disposition of all or a portion of
the Debtors and their assets.  The Debtors and PW canvassed
interested parties, solicited bids, and assisted interested buyers
in completing initial due diligence toward a sale or sales of their
assets.  

The Debtors solicited bids before the Petition Date for all or some
of their assets, resulting in a stalking horse purchaser for the
Riverbend assets of Badlands Production.  With respect to those
Riverbend assets of Badlands Production, on Oct. 26, 2017, the
Court approved Badlands Production's sale of substantially all
assets to Wapiti Utah, LLC.  The Debtors and PW continued to market
the South Altamont assets and field office assets of the Debtor and
Myton Oilfield during the Riverbend sale process.

Pursuant to the Court's Bid Procedures Order, the Debtors solicited
any and all bids for the sale of the Debtor's South Altamont assets
and field office assets of Myton Oilfield.  After receiving
multiple bids on Oct. 20, 2017, the Debtors convened an auction on
Oct. 26, 2017.

Wapiti Utah has been identified as the Successful Bidder for the
field office assets of the Debtor ("Property”).  Through the
Motion, and in accordance with the Bid Procedures Order, the Debtor
asks entry of an order approving the Real Estate Sale Contract with
Wapiti Utah.  Under the Purchase Agreement, Wapiti Utah proposes to
purchase the Debtor's Property, and substantially all of the
Debtor's assets, for a purchase price of $400,000.  The Debtor's
personal property (vehicles and related equipment) will be
transferred upon entry of an order granting the Motion via bill of
sale, certificate of title or other appropriate transfer documents,
consistent with the Sale of substantially all of the its assets.

The Property will be sold free and clear of liens, claims,
encumbrances, and other interests.  Within three business days
following the execution date of the Agreement, the Buyer will
deliver to the Seller the sum of $40,000 to be held in an account,
Account # 8095350290 at Colorado State Bank and Trust pursuant to
the Escrow Instructions delivered by Buyer and Seller to the Escrow
Agent, as the earnest money deposit.  The closing will occur 10
days after the Sale Order has been entered by the Court.

The Debtor reserves the right to file and serve before the Sale
Hearing any supplemental pleading or declaration that it deems
appropriate or necessary in its reasonable business judgment,
including any pleading summarizing the competitive bidding and sale
process and the results thereof, in support of its request for
entry of the Sale Order.

A copy of the Agreement attached to the Motion is available for

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/Badland_Energy_233_Sales.pdf

Thus, the Debtor submits that Wapiti Utah's Successful Bid, the
Purchase Price and the final form of Purchase Agreement, constitute
the highest or otherwise best offer for the Property and will
provide a greater recovery for its estate than would be provided by
any other available alternative.  As such, its determination to
sell the Property to Wapiti Utah is a valid and sound exercise of
business judgment.  It will submit evidence at the Sale Hearing to
support these conclusions.

On Oct. 18, 2017, the Debtors filed and served their Notice of
Auction and Sale Hearing under the Bid Procedures Order, serving
notice of the date of the auction and the date of the Sale Hearing
on more than 1,000 creditors and parties in interest, including a
list of potentially interested purchasers as reflected in the
certificate of service.

     (f) Payment of incidental overhead expenses concerning the
property.

Such expenses must conform to the revised Second Budget which
provides total expenses of $13,382 from Oct. 30, 2017 through and

As and for adequate protection, the Bank of New York Mellon will be

lien to the same extent, validity and priority as existed on the
Petition Date under the Loan Documents, in cash collateral owned as

granted a superpriority administrative claim pursuant to Section
364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.

     (c) The Trustee will maintain insurance on the Property in an

BESTWALL LLC: Files Voluntary Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Petition
------------------------------------------------------------
Bestwall LLC, an affiliate of Georgia-Pacific LLC, on Nov. 2, 2017,
disclosed that it has filed a voluntary petition for Chapter 11
relief in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of
North Carolina in Charlotte in an effort to equitably and
permanently resolve all its current and future asbestos claims.
Bestwall intends to seek court authority to establish a trust under
Section 524(g) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to ensure that all
individuals with current and future asbestos claims are treated
fairly.  Georgia-Pacific and its subsidiaries are not part of the
Chapter 11 filing and will continue to operate as usual.

"[Thurs]day's filing by Bestwall has no impact on Georgia-Pacific's
business operations, nor does it affect our 35,000 employees and
25,000 vendors who serve more than 15,000 customers globally," said
Tyler Woolson, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of
Georgia-Pacific.  "Georgia-Pacific is financially strong, with a
Standard & Poor's A+ rating, and stands as one of the world's
leading makers of tissue, pulp, paper, packaging and building
products."

He continued, "Bestwall's Chapter 11 filing is an important and
necessary step toward an efficient and permanent resolution of the
asbestos litigation Bestwall and its predecessor have been facing,
and Bestwall would have continued to face, for decades.  After
nearly 40 years of ongoing, and more recently escalating,
litigation, we believe that establishing a trust through this
specialized provision of the Bankruptcy Code is the only option
that will allow Bestwall to permanently and fully resolve its
asbestos claims while providing a resolution that fairly and
equitably treats all individuals with current and future claims."

Bestwall, a North Carolina entity, holds the equity of another
North Carolina entity, GP Industrial Plasters LLC, which operates
an industrial plasters business.  Bestwall also owns certain land
in North Carolina and has cash and a funding arrangement with
Georgia-Pacific.  Bestwall was created in an internal corporate
restructuring and now holds the asbestos liabilities.  GP
Industrial Plasters LLC is not included in the Chapter 11 filing
and will continue to operate normally.

Bestwall is prepared to work cooperatively and expeditiously with
representatives of asbestos claimants to establish a section 524(g)
trust.  If necessary to achieve a resolution, the company will ask
the North Carolina Bankruptcy Court to estimate the amount
necessary to fund the trust.

History of Asbestos Litigation

Bestwall's asbestos liabilities relate primarily to joint systems
products manufactured by Bestwall Gypsum Company, a company
acquired by Georgia-Pacific in 1965.  The former Bestwall Gypsum
entity manufactured joint compounds containing small amounts of
chrysotile asbestos; the manufacture of these asbestos-containing
products ceased in 1977.  Overall, the amount of asbestos used in
these joint compound products was less than 1% of the total
asbestos used in over 3,000 asbestos-containing products
manufactured in the U.S. in the 20th Century.

Even though the Bestwall asbestos-containing products represented
only a miniscule percentage of all asbestos-containing products
manufactured in the U.S., Bestwall and its predecessor have been
named as a defendant in approximately 70-80% of all mesothelioma
cases filed in the U.S. each year.  In addition, despite this
minimal percentage of asbestos-containing products and the small
amount of chrysotile asbestos in the Bestwall products, Bestwall
and its predecessor have spent approximately $2.9 billion defending
and resolving over 430,000 asbestos personal injury lawsuits during
the nearly 40-year span of the litigation.  Bestwall believes that
the substantial settlement amounts that have been paid are, at
least in part, the product of the same litigation abuses, including
suppression of alternative exposure evidence, that were exposed in
the recent Garlock bankruptcy case.

Bestwall had more than 62,000 asbestos claims pending against it at
the time of the bankruptcy filing, and the litigation was projected
to continue at least through 2050.

process is available at www.Bestwall.com.  Court filings and

The firm will advise the Debtor concerning its financial affairs;

other legal services related to its Chapter 11 case.

Blossom Park Condominium Association, Inc. sought protection under
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. M.D. Fla. Case No.
17-06803) on October 26, 2017.  At the time of the filing, the
Debtor disclosed that it had estimated assets of less than $50,000

BROCK HOLDINGS: S&P Lowers CCR to 'SD' on Completed Exchange Offer
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on
Houston-based industrial specialty services provider Brock Holdings
II Inc. (BHII) and its wholly owned subsidiary Brock Holdings III
Inc. (Brock) to 'SD' from 'CCC-'.

S&P said, "At the same time, we lowered our issue-level rating on
Brock's second-lien term loan due 2018 to 'D' from 'C'. The '6'
recovery rating remains unchanged, indicating our expectation for
negligible recovery (0%-10%; rounded estimate: 0%) in the event of
a payment default.

The downgrade follows The Brock Group's announcement that American
Industrial Partners has acquired majority ownership of the company.
American Industrial partners acquired its ownership stake when the
company exchanged its second-lien term loan issued by Brock
Holdings III Inc. for equity in the company. S&P said, "We view
this exchange as tantamount to a default because of Brock's
previously meaningful upcoming debt maturities and distressed
financial position. The downgrade of Brock Holdings II Inc.
reflects our belief that this entity did not honor its guarantee on
the second-lien term loan."

S&P expects to review its ratings on the company over the next
several days as it assesses its revised capital structure and
liquidity position.

BUILDDIRECT.COM: Home Products Platform Commences CCAA Case
-----------------------------------------------------------
BuildDirect.com Technologies Inc. commenced on October 31,2017, a
case under the Canadian Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act,
R.S.C., in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, in the nation of
Canada, with plans to continue business operations while it
undergoes a formal sale and investment solicitation process
(SISP).

The BC Court approved the appointment of PriceWaterhouseCoopers
Inc. as monitor.  The BC Court has granted a stay of all
proceedings and actions against BuildDirect until Nov. 21, 2017.
At a hearing on Nov. 21, at 10:00 a.m., the BC Court will consider
granting extension of the stay period.  A copy of the Initial Order
is available at
http://bankrupt.com/misc/BuildDirect_CCAA_Initial_Order.pdf

Founded in 1999, BuildDirect is a technology company that has built
and operates an online market platform for home improvement
products which allows retail customers to order products online and
have them shipped directly to a location of the customer's
choosing.  It sources products from around the world (predominantly
the U.S. and China) for sale to customers throughout Canada and the
U.S.  The Company employs 224 people.

The Company has leased offices in Vancouver British Columbia;
Waterloo, Ontario; and Bangalore India, and operates a network of
warehouses and distribution channels in Canada and the U.S.  It is
not a tenant under any real property leases in the U.S.  It is a
party to a series of warehouse service contracts through which, the
Company receives warehouse and distribution services from third
parties.  

BuildDirect's operations have consistently generated significant
revenue but it has not yet achieved profitability.  To date, it has
relied on a combination of debt financing, equity investment and
convertible debt financing to fund its operations.   The Company's
revenues grew until 2014 when annual revenue was approximately $120
million.  Revenue decline to $107 million in 2016, as the rollout
of the company's "marketplace business" strained the Company's
search engine capabilities and negatively impacted sales.

Over the last several months, the Company has worked to reduce
losses and improve operating efficiencies by focusing on its core
businesses and the revenue generating potential of existing
technology.  This has allowed BuildDirect to reduce fixed costs
while preserving enterprise value, such that as of Sept. 30, b2017,
BuildDirect's current monthly burn rate was $2.6 million and its
revenue for the first three financial quarters was $72 million.

BuildDirect believes that its core businesses and proprietary
technology are of significant value and have tremendous potential
for growth and that wit h its improved and refocused business plan,
BuildDirect will continue to improve margins, reduce operating
costs and lower its monthly burn rate going forward.

BuildDirect's most significant creditors are three lending
syndicates -- the senior lenders ($30 million), junior lenders ($25
million) and the subordinated lenders ($15.6 million).  The Company
has unsecured liabilities of $27.9 million as of Oct. 26, 2017.

The principal owing to the secured lenders $75 million of which is
secured against BuildDirect's present and after-acquired property.
Over the last year, the Company has struggled to meet its
obligations to the secured lenders and has entered into forbearance
agreements and default waiver agreements with certain lenders to
address various defaults.

The immediate cause of BuildDirect's financial difficulties is its
failure to complete an anticipated significant equity financing in
mid-October 2017.  As a result, BuildDirect is unable to meet its
liabilities as they come due and requires immediate access to
interim financing in order to continue its business as a going
concern and preserve enterprises value while the Company carries
out a formal sale and investment solicitation process and completes
a restructuring or a sale of its assets, all for the benefit of its
stakeholders.

                     Restructuring Plan

The Company intends to continue its operations while working with
the Monitor and the Interim Lenders to develop and implement the
SISP and complete a sale or restructuring transaction as soon as
practicable.

BuildDirect requires immediate interim financing in order to meet
its obligations.  In consultation with the Monitor, BuildDirect has
determined it requires USD$10 million to cover expenses until Dec.
3, 2017.  Among other things, these funds are required to pay
ongoing operational expenses and restructuring related expenses,
including with respect to the development and implementation of the
SISP and the development of a restructuring plan.

BUILDDIRECT.COM: Seeks U.S. Recognition of Canadian Proceedings
---------------------------------------------------------------
BuildDirect.com Technologies Inc. on Nov. 1, 2017, filed a Chapter
15 petition in Los Angeles, in the United States, to seek
recognition of proceedings before the Supreme Court of British
Columbia in Canada.

On Oct. 31, 2017, the Company commenced a case under the Canadian
Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act, R.S.C., in the Supreme Court
of British Columbia, in the nation of Canada.  The BC Court
authorized the Company to commence proceedings under Chapter 15 of
the Bankruptcy Code to have the CCAA case recognized as the
"foreign main proceeding."

BuildDirect is a technology company that has built and operates an
online market platform for home improvement products which allows
retail customers to order products online and have them shipped
directly to a location of the customer's choosing.  The Company
uses six warehouses and a number of distribution centers.  Of
these, 5 warehouses and multiple distribution centers are located
in the U.S., including its largest distribution centers in Carson,
California.  Approximately 95% of BuildDirect sales are to US-based
customers.

The Company operates through a highly integrated warehouse and
distribution network with a system of fixed transportation routes
which facilitates the regular movement of products among suppliers,
customers and the distribution centres.

Accordingly, the Company has filed a petition for recognition of
the CCAA case in the U.S. under Chapter 15 of the Bankruptcy Code.
In the interim, provisionally, to prevent any interruption to its
business and to maintain the value of its business and property,
the Company requests that the Court grant provisional relief under
Sec. 1519 of the Bankruptcy Code.

CALATLANTIC GROUP: S&P Places 'BB' CCR on CreditWatch Positive
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it had placed its ratings on
CalAtlantic Group Inc., including its 'BB' corporate credit rating
and the issue-level rating on the senior unsecured debt, on
CreditWatch with positive implications. The recovery rating on
CAA's senior unsecured debt remains '3'.

CAA announced that it reached a merger agreement with Lennar, which
will acquire the company for $9.7 billion and fund the deal with
80% common stock and the remainder with cash. The transaction will
include LEN's assumption of an estimated $3.6 billion of CAA's
debt. The deal is expected to close by the end of LEN's first
quarter, Feb. 28, 2018.

CAA is the fourth-largest U.S. homebuilder by revenue, with
operations in 41 markets across 19 states. It delivered 14,683
homes for the 12 months ended June 30, 2017, at an average price of
$448,000. The company's primary product type is move-up homes, but
it also has exposure to the luxury and active adult markets, and
more recently increased its exposure to entry-level homes. S&P's
expectations for leverage and view of the company's financial risk
profile are framed by its forecast of debt to EBITDA to remain
between 3x and 4x, EBITDA interest coverage of 4x-6x, and debt to
capital of 40%-50%.

LEN is the third-largest U.S. homebuilder, with substantial
geographic diversity across the country and solid share within its
local markets. S&P said, "Although the proposed merger will add
only a few new markets to LEN's platform, we believe the company's
increased market share will be substantial, and we estimate that it
will be the market leader in as many as 16 major U.S. metro areas
with more top-five positions than peers D.R. Horton and Pulte. In
concert with our expectation that LEN will continue to achieve
EBITDA margins that will rank favorably among U.S. homebuilding
peers, we view the transaction as strengthening its overall
business prospects but are cognizant of the integration risk
inherent with a deal of this size. Pro forma for the transaction,
we project debt to capital may temporarily rise above 40% and debt
to EBTIDA to 3.5x, but believe run-rate credit metrics will be
appropriate for the 'BB+' rating."

S&P said, "We will resolve the CreditWatch when the transaction
closes, which the company stated it expects to occur by Feb. 28,
2018. Subsequent to resolving the CreditWatch listing, we expect to
withdraw the rating."

------------------------------------------------------------------
Corbett-Frame, Inc., seeks authority from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Eastern District of Kentucky to use cash collateral on an
extended basis through Nov. 30, 2017.

The Debtor requires the extended use of cash collateral to ensure
continued going-concern operations, as well as to protect and
preserve the value of the Debtor's assets as set forth on the
budget.  The proposed budget provides total operating expenses of
$70,244 for the month of November 2017.

The Debtor proposes to provide Cash Collateral Creditors with same
adequate protection as provided in previous orders.

Moreover, the Debtor is proposing to pay David Yurman an adequate
protection payment of $10,434 on the condition that David Yurman
permits the Debtor to do special orders on COD.  The Debtor
believes that the special orders will enhance cash flow considering
that the brand is very popular in general and especially during the
holiday season.

The Debtor has not previously provided any adequate protection
payments to David Yurman, so the size of the payment is appropriate
considering no other payments have been made and with the payment
being conditioned on Debtor's ability to do special orders with
this popular brand.

DPL INC: Fitch Raises IDR to BB & Revises Outlook to Positive
-------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has upgraded DPL Inc's (DPL) Long-Term Issuer Default
Rating (LT IDR) to 'BB' from 'B+'. Additionally, Fitch has upgraded
DPL's senior unsecured rating to 'BB+/RR2' from 'BB-/RR3'. Fitch
has also upgraded Dayton Power and Light's (DP&L) LT IDR to 'BBB-'
from 'BB+' and upgraded DP&L's senior secured rating to 'BBB+'. All
Outlooks have been revised to Positive from Negative.

The recent approval of DP&L's amended Electric Security Plan (ESP)
without material modifications to the stipulation reached earlier
in the year removed a major regulatory uncertainty. The Order,
which authorizes DP&L to collect a non-bypassable Distribution
Modernization Rider (DMR) of $105 million for three years,
establishes a clear path for DP&L and DPL to delever. In addition,
with the planned exit of merchant coal generation and potential
sale of its peaking units, DPL will transform into a fully
regulated utility holding company.

Potential legal challenges to the ESP order cannot be ruled out.
However, Fitch believes that such a risk is small given the
successful implementation of a similar ESP by the FirstEnergy's
utilities in 2016. Fitch notes that in the Order, the Commission
specifically addressed the arguments raised in the previous court
cases, in an effort to pre-empt legal challenges.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

ESP Order Removes Major Uncertainty: On October 20, the Public
Utility Commission of Ohio (PUCO) issued an order approving the
March 2017 stipulation reached among DP&L, PUCO staff and other
intervenors with only minor modifications. The order authorizes
DP&L to collect a Distribution Modernization Rider (DMR) of $105
million for three years; DP&L may apply for an additional two-year
extension. DPL is committed to using the DMR proceeds to pay
interest obligations on existing debt, make discretionary debt
payments and invest in T&D infrastructure. The approval removes a
major regulatory uncertainty since Ohio Supreme Court's rejection
of DP&L's service stability rider in June 2016.

Transformation Under Way: With the separation of generation assets,
DP&L is now a fully regulated T&D utility. On Oct 1, 2017, DP&L
completed the transfer of its generation assets to AES Ohio
Generation LLC. (AES Ohio Gen), a wholly owned subsidiary of DPL.
On April 21, 2017, DP&L announced an agreement to sell to Dynegy
its undivided interest in the Zimmer (28%) and Miami Fort 7-8 (36%)
generating stations for $50 million in cash and the assumption of
certain liabilities. DPL intends to retire its Killen and Stuart
coal generation facilities before June 1, 2018. DPL has also
announced that it is exploring strategic options for its ownership
interest in the peaking units (~988 MW of gas, solar and diesel
generation), which represent approximately 15% of total
consolidated EBITDA in 2018.

Future Legal Challenge an Event Risk: Potential legal challenges
against the order cannot be ruled out, which Fitch considers an
event risk. However, given the implementation of a similar DMR by
FirstEnergy Corp.'s three Ohio subsidiaries, the risk of a
successful legal challenge to the Order appears to be remote.
Additionally, PUCO specifically addressed the issue of a
"transition charge" in the Order, an argument that was raised in
past court cases, to preempt a future legal challenge, in Fitch's
view.

Credit Metrics: Fitch expects DPL to generate FFO adjusted leverage
of low 5x over the next few years. Fitch believes DP&L's credit
metrics will continue to be strong for its rating. and expects
DP&L's FFO adjusted leverage to average 3.2x over the next few
years.

Deleveraging Continues: DPL and DP&L have been actively refinancing
or redeeming their maturities in the last few years amidst
regulatory and power market uncertainties. The August 2016
refinancing of DP&L's first mortgage bonds relieved a significant
near-term maturity. In May, July and September 2017, DP&L repaid
the $100 million 2006 pollution control bonds (with the last piece
[$70 million] redeemed in September 2017) in preparation for
generation separation by drawing down on its $50 million DPL
revolver (which Fitch expect to be paid down using sale proceeds
from Zimmer and Miami Fort). Fitch expects both DPL and DP&L to
continue to pay down debt and expects DP&L to achieve 50%
debt/capital before the end of the six-year ESP period.

Notching: DP&L's standalone credit profile is strong but its rating
is constrained due to ownership by a highly leveraged parent. The
existing regulatory restrictions around DP&L are protective of its
credit quality; however, they do not completely insulate it from
DPL's weaker credit profile.

DERIVATION SUMMARY

With the completion of the transfer of its generation assets on
October 1, 2017, DP&L has become a fully regulated transmission and
distribution utility. Its business profile is comparable to Ohio
Power (OP), Ohio Edison (OE), Toledo Edison (TE) and Cleveland
Illuminating Company (CIC). DP&L's credit metrics compare favorably
with most of its peers. Its three-year average FFO adjusted
leverage is expected to be 3.2x, stronger than TE (BBB/Stable,
4.8x) and CIC (BBB/Stable, 5.5x), similar to OE (BBB/Stable, 3x),
and weaker than OP (A-/Stable, 2.6x). DP&L's strong financial
profile is offset by ownership by a highly levered parent, whereas
its peers benefit from being part of larger, more diversified
corporate families.

DPL is transitioning to a regulated utility holding company,
similar to First Energy Corp.(FE, BBB-/Stable) and American
Electric Power (BBB+/Stable). Both FE and AEP benefit from their
ownership of utility subsidiaries across multiple regulatory
jurisdictions. Both the companies are also investing heavily in
electric transmission projects, which are regulated by the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, which Fitch views favorably. Fitch
projects that DPL's average FFO adjusted leverage in the next few
years will be 5.3x, compared with FE's 5.3x and AEP's 4.2x,
currently.

KEY ASSUMPTIONS

- Incorporates the provisions of the ESP through 2023;
- Sale of coal-fired plants Zimmer, Miami Fort, Conesville and

- Distribution rate case is expected be approved in 2018; Fitch
   has assumed $35 million increase versus the requested $65
   million.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

DP&L:

Future Developments That May, Individually or Collectively, Lead to
Positive Rating Actions Include:
- Upgrade of DPL.

Future Developments That May, Individually or Collectively, Lead to
Negative Rating Actions Include:
- Downgrade of DPL;
- Successful legal challenges such that DMR was revoked such that

   DP&L is unable to execute its deleveraging plans;
- Material adverse outcome in the pending and future rate
   proceedings;
- Inability to recover its distribution infrastructure investment
   on a timely manner or regulatory supportiveness deteriorates
   such that DP&L's FFO adjusted leverage sustains above 5.0x.

DYNEGY INC: S&P Places 'B+' ICR on Watch Positive Amid Vistra Deal
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it placed its 'B+' issuer credit rating on
Dynegy Inc. on CreditWatch with positive implications. S&P also
placed the 'BB' and 'B+' issue-level ratings on the company's
secured and unsecured debt, respectively, on CreditWatch with
positive implications. The '1' recovery rating on the secured debt
reflects S&P's expectation of very high (90%-100%) recovery in the
event of default. The '3' recovery rating on the unsecured debt
reflects its expectation of meaningful (50%-70%) recovery in the
event of default.

S&P said, "The CreditWatch placement reflects our expectation that,
upon close of the transaction, we will raise the issuer credit
rating and issue-level ratings on Dynegy Inc. one notch to equalize
them with the ratings of Vistra Energy Corp, which is presently
rated 'BB-'.

"On Oct. 30, 2017, Vistra announced the acquisition of Dynegy Inc.
We anticipate this deal will close in the first half of 2018, upon
receiving requisite approvals; we expect this to be an all stock
transaction. The merger is premised on expectations of significant
synergies and a broadened geographic footprint.

"We will likely also raise the issue-level ratings. We do not
expect recovery ratings to improve, because both the secured and
unsecured recovery ratings are already as strong as they can be,
but the ratings could improve based on improvement of the issuer
credit rating.

"Our rating outlook on Dynegy was previously negative, based on
what we thought might be challenges refinancing its December 2019
maturities. However, it is our belief that this maturity will be
paid down with cash remaining after the merger.

"The CreditWatch placement indicates our expectation that we will
likely bring the rating on Dynegy into line with that of Vistra
Energy if the transaction is completed. We will likely resolve the
CreditWatch placement once the transaction closes, presumably at
some point in the first half of 2018."

East West Copolymer, LLC, filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition
Bankr. M.D. La. Case No. 17-10327) on April 7, 2017.  In its
petition, the Debtor estimated $1 million to $10 million in assets
and $10 million to $50 million in liabilities.  The petition was
signed by Gregory Nelson, manager.

Stewart Robbins & Brown, LLC represents the Debtor as counsel.  The
Debtor hired Shared Management Resources, Ltd. as chief
restructuring officer; Balmoral Advisors, LLC as investment banker;
Didier Consultants Inc. as consultant; and Alluvion Community
Capital, LLC, as agent to secure reimbursement for overpayment of

EDELMAN FINANCIAL: S&P Lowers CCR to 'B' on Increased Leverage
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its issuer credit rating on Edelman
Financial Center to 'B' from 'B+'. The outlook is stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned a 'B' issue rating to
Edelman's new first-lien term loan and first-lien revolving credit
facility. The recovery rating on both of these securities is a '4',
reflecting our expectation for an average (30%-50%; rounded
estimate: 40%) recovery in the event of a payment default.

"The downgrade reflects the increase in leverage to above our
previous downside threshold (5x leverage) as a result of Edelman's
proposed debt offering. Although we expect the company to continue
to grow quickly, as a result of both solid revenue growth and
expanding margins, we do not expect Edelman to achieve leverage at
the 5x level or better until 2019 at the earliest. Furthermore, our
rating incorporates our unfavorable view of the firm's majority
ownership by Hellman & Friedman, a financial sponsor. We expect the
company will maintain aggressive financial policies under Hellman &
Friedman and that even if Edelman deleverages to below 5x, there is
significant risk that the firm could increase leverage back up
above 6x or more.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation for the company to
grow EBITDA by slightly over 30% in 2017 and then around 10%-15% in
2018. It also incorporates our expectation for leverage to be in
the low 6x area in 2017 and low to mid 5x area in 2018.

"Although unlikely, if leverage rises above 8x on a sustained
basis, we could lower the ratings. We could also lower the ratings
if we observe significant deterioration in client or financial
adviser retention such that the company has persistent net outflows
and we view the business as materially weaker.

"We could raise the ratings if the firm demonstrates increased
scale and diversity while also maintaining solid organic growth and
leverage close to or better than 5x."

GILDED AGE: Rental Income to Fund Proposed Chapter 11 Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Gilded Age Properties, LLCm filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Rhode Island a disclosure statement in
connection with its plan of reorganization dated Oct. 24, 2017.

The Debtor believes that creditors should be paid in full. Here,
payment of the debts of the Debtor in full is possible over time.
The Debtor believes that its major assets, two rental buildings
located at 117 Bellevue Avenue and 38-40 Freebody Street in
Newport, Rhode Island, have a reasonable prospect of generating
revenues sufficient to meet the obligations of the Reorganized
Debtor under the Plan. The Debtor has devoted considerable time and
energy to negotiating a Plan which it believes will provide its
creditors with a significantly greater and more certain return than
any other likely outcome of the bankruptcy, and particularly more
than a liquidation. The Reorganized Debtor will own the Property of
the Debtor after the Effective Date. The Debtor believes that the
reset of the indebtedness owed to lender Webster Bank, coupled with
the increased from operations, will yield an operating entity able
to handle its debt service requirements, operating expenses and
Plan payments going forward.

The Debtor anticipates paying all claims in full during the
pendency of the Plan. The Debtor's Plan provides for a
restructuring of the secured debt of Lender. The plan also proposes
a 100% repayment of all debts as well as a 100% cure of the
arrearage owed to the Lender.

The implementation of the Plan will permit the Debtor to
restructure its obligations and pay off said restructured
obligations from the proceeds of (i) rental income derived from the
leasing of residential and commercial units in the interim. and
(ii) proceeds, if any, of the Adversary Action filed by the Debtor
alleging multiple counts of lender liability and restitution if
ordered.

On the Effective Date, the Debtor will assume the existing
Management Agreement between the Debtor and Crew Remodeling, Inc.
From and after the Effective Date, management fees will be paid as
and when due in accordance with the Management Agreement.
Management fees that are accrued and unpaid as of the Effective
Date will be paid by the Reorganized Debtor as funds become
available to make such payments. From and after the Effective Date,
the Manager will collect rents from the rental units consistent
with prior practices, deliver Net Rental Proceeds to the Debtor as
and when required pursuant to the terms of the Management
Agreement. All such Net Rental Proceeds will be deposited into the
Debtor in Possession account.

GRAMERCY PROPERTY: Fitch Affirms BB+ Preferred Stock Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the ratings of Gramercy Property Trust
(NYSE: GPT) at 'BBB'. The Rating Outlook has been revised to
Negative from Stable.  

KEY RATING DRIVERS

The Negative Outlook primarily reflects Fitch's expectation that,
absent deleveraging actions, GPT's leverage will remain in the low
to mid-6.0x range throughout the ratings horizon, which is above
Fitch's 6.0x negative rating sensitivity. In addition, GPT has
unencumbered asset coverage of net unsecured debt (UA/UD ratio)
that is low for the current rating and below that of its similarly
rated peer group. GPT has the ability to maintain leverage below
6.0x and elevate UA/UD via the issuance of additional equity or
asset dispositions to reduce debt. GPT continues its evolution
toward a more unsecured funding model and has multiple unsecured
borrowings outstanding but, to date has not issued any public
unsecured notes.

These credit weaknesses are offset by GPT's fixed-charge coverage
ratio which remains strong for the 'BBB' rating, albeit driven in
part by shorter-term but less costly bank financing than the
average REIT, strong management team and granular portfolio of
predominantly single-tenant, industrial assets that should generate
consistent cash flows. Fitch expects asset quality to improve over
the next several years as a result of Gramercy's asset
repositioning strategy of disposing of select single- and
multi-tenant assets primarily in the office sector, and reinvesting
those proceeds into target industrial, and, to a lesser extent,
specialty assets.

Elevated Leverage: Fitch projects leverage (excluding the effects
of preferred stock) will settle in the low- to mid-6.0x range
through 2019, higher than Fitch's negative rating sensitivity.
Leverage was in the high-5.0x range for the TTM ended June 30, 2017
but increases to the mid-6.0x range pro forma for acquisitions and
capital markets activity through August-end. Leverage increases by
approximately 0.1x when including 50% of the company's preferred
stock as debt.

Fitch projects that GPT's fixed-charge coverage ratio will sustain
at the high-3.0x level through 2019, driven by accretive
acquisitions and developments, and partially offset by increased
interest expense from unsecured bond issuances. GPT's fixed-charge
coverage is solid for its 'BBB' Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at 3.6x
for the TTM ended June 30, 2017, although GPT's capital structure
has more shorter-term, but less expensive, bank financing that the
average REIT.

Portfolio Repositioning: In conjunction with the closing of the
Chambers Street Merger in December 2015, Gramercy began actively
managing its portfolio to optimize future performance by
repositioning the combined portfolio. As of second quarter 2017
(2Q17), pro forma for investment activity through August-end, GPT's
portfolio will generate approximately 78% of cash NOI from
industrial assets, 18% from office and 4% from specialty retail. In
comparison, as of 1Q16, GPT generated 52% of its revenue from
office, 43% from industrial, and 4% from specialty retail.

Fitch views the industrial real estate sector positively given the
secular shift in the distribution of consumer goods. Fitch expects
that well-located industrial assets will reap benefits from the
emphasis on omni-channel trade and the potential for convergence
within the retail and industrial sectors. Further reduction in
office building exposure should also result in a less capital
intensive portfolio to manage over time.

As of 2Q17, pro forma for investment activity through August-end,
GPT's largest market, Chicago, represents 11.0% of annual base
rents, followed by Dallas (6.7%), Atlanta (5.7%) and Los Angeles
(5.4%). The portfolio is well diversified across over 350 different
tenants and many industry classifications, and key tenant risk is
moderate with the largest tenant, FedEx, accounting for 5.6% of pro
forma revenues.

Evolving Portfolio: GPT's investment strategy emphasizes investment
in industrial assets versus a specific lease format such as
long-term triple-net leased assets. Alternative formats to the
triple-net lease model, such as net leased and modified gross
leased assets, provide real estate owners greater upside (and
downside) due to the exposure to operating and enhanced leasing
risks. Triple-net leased tenants bear the risk of rising taxes,
increased maintenance costs and insurance needs, versus the net
lease and modified gross lease models, which shift some of the
expense (and risk) to the property owner.

Further, GPT's acquisition strategy includes assets with
significantly shorter lease terms than typically seen in in
long-term single-tenant net lease transactions, resulting in
potentially higher cash flow volatility. GPT's weighted average
lease term is 7.2 years, less than the net lease REIT average of
approximately 10 years and more than a gross lease-focused
industrial REIT which is typically in the mid-single digits. Fitch
expects lease tenor to decline as the company completes its asset
repositioning plans, targeting an average lease term of
approximately 5-7 years across the portfolio.

Transition to Unsecured Funding Model: As of 2Q17, approximately
80% of GPT's outstanding indebtedness is unsecured, up from 65.3%
as of Dec. 31, 2015. Fitch expects GPT to continue its evolution
toward a fully unsecured funding model; GPT currently has four
series of unsecured notes totalling $500 million and $1.45 billion
of unsecured term loans outstanding. Fitch expects GPT will
continue to reduce its secured debt as existing mortgages mature
and through new unencumbered acquisitions, which should improve
financial flexibility going forward.

GPT has significantly higher exposure to bank debt than the broader
REIT universe. GPT's bank borrowing exposure - the sum of
outstanding amounts on unsecured revolving facilities and term
loans - represents approximately 60% of total debt versus the REIT
sector average of approximately 16%. Fitch expects the company to
repay a portion of this bank debt via unsecured bond issuance as
the capital structure matures.

Weak UA/UD Ratio: UA/UD is 1.7x when applying a stressed 9%
capitalization rate to unencumbered NOI. Fitch considers a UA/UD
ratio less than 2.0x as below investment-grade.

Internal Growth / Earnings: Fitch expects 2017 same store NOI
(SSNOI) growth to be negative; the company's SSNOI was down 1.9% in
2Q17 after increasing 0.2% in 1Q17. The declines in 2Q17 SSNOI were
primarily caused by vacancies in the company's industrial
portfolio. Fitch expects SSNOI growth to turn positive in 2018
based on estimated contractual rent increases ranging from
1.0%-2.0% for the portfolio and on stabilizing occupancy.

Experienced Management: Senior management has significant
experience in commercial real estate, investing, and asset
management. The team is led by Gordon DuGan and Benjamin Harris,
who have experience working together at W.P. Carey, a net-lease
REIT. Together the two carry more than 40 years of direct real
estate investment and management experience, while Gramercy's eight
senior officers have an average of approximately 20 years of real
estate experience.

Negative Outlook: The Outlook revision to Negative principally
reflects Fitch's expectation that the company's leverage will
settle in the low- to mid-6.0x range through 2019, higher than
Fitch's negative rating sensitivity of 6.0x and higher than
comparable 'BBB' rated peers. In addition, the company's UA/UD
ratio of 1.7x, which is down from 2.1x as of June 30, 2016, is weak
for the rating.

GPT has the ability to reduce leverage below 6.0x and elevate UA/UD
with the issuance of additional equity or via asset sales to reduce
debt. The company has access to the equity capital markets as
evidenced by the public equity raise of over $270 million of
capital in April 2017 and the utilization of its at-the-market
(ATM) equity issuance program that has raised an additional $20
million in 2017. The company's common stock currently trades at an
estimated 10% premium to consensus net asset value according to SNL
Financial, allowing management to issue additional equity
accretively.

DERIVATION SUMMARY

GPT's closest rated peer is Lexington Realty Trust (LXP;
BBB/Stable). LXP is focused on industrial and office properties and
has a similar leverage policy to GPT, although LXP's leverage is
currently below 6.0x; both companies are well diversified by
tenant, industry and geography. GPT is further along in an asset
repositioning program to reduce office exposure, and has more
industrial real estate exposure, which Fitch considers a positive
given the underlying strength and future prospects for that sector.
Liberty Property Trust (LPT; BBB/Stable) has also reduced its
suburban office exposure and sought to become a majority industrial
property company. LPT's rating is driven by expected leverage
sustaining in the 5.5x-6.0x range along with proven longstanding
access to the public unsecured bond market. STAG Industrial's
(BBB/Stable) portfolio is focused on secondary U.S. industrial
markets. Fitch expects STAG to operate through the cycle with
leverage sustaining in the low- to mid-5.0x range.

KEY ASSUMPTIONS

Fitch's key assumptions within Fitch rating case for the issuer
include:
-- Annual same-store NOI growth of negative 1.5% in 2017 due to
    declining same store occupancy and positive 1.5%-2.0% growth
    in 2018 and 2019 reflecting flat same store occupancy,
    contractual rent escalations and positive rent spreads;
-- Net acquisitions of $1 billion in 2017 and $800 million in
    2018 and 2019;
-- Equity issuance of $560 million and $500 million in 2017 and
    2018, respectively, used to fund external growth on a
    leverage-neutral basis;
-- Common share dividends of $230 million in 2017 are expected
    to grow by $30 million-$40 million per year as the company
    issues additional equity;
-- $900 million of unsecured bond issuances in 2018 and $500
    million in 2019;
-- Approximately $100 million of maintenance capital expenditures

    in 2017 and 2018 declining to $35 million per year in 2019.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Future Developments That May, Individually or Collectively, Lead to
Negative Rating Action:
-- Fitch's expectation of leverage sustaining above 6x;
-- Fitch's expectation of FCC sustaining below 2.5x

Future Developments That May, Individually or Collectively, Lead to
Revising the Outlook to Stable at a 'BBB' IDR:
-- Fitch's expectation of leverage sustaining at or below 6x
    (pro forma 2Q17 leverage was is in the mid-6.0x range at
    June 30, 2017;
-- Fitch's expectation of FCC sustaining above 3.5x (FCC was 3.6x

    for the TTM ended June 30, 2017);
-- Fitch's expectation of a 2.0x UA/UD ratio at a 9% stressed cap

    rate.

LIQUIDITY

Adequate Liquidity: Fitch calculates GPT's liquidity coverage ratio
is 1.2x for July 1, 2017 to Dec. 31, 2018, pro forma for recent
acquisitions and dispositions subsequent to June 30, 2017. Fitch
defines liquidity coverage as sources of liquidity (unrestricted
cash, availability under the unsecured revolving credit facility,
expected retained cash flows from operating activities after
dividend payments) divided by uses of liquidity (debt maturities,
development expenditures and recurring capital expenditures).

Debt maturities are manageable through 2020. No year represents
more than 11% of total debt, except for the company's $850 million
revolver expiring in 2020; $750 million of term loans come due in
2021. GPT recently amended and upsized its existing $175 million
unsecured term due in January 2023 to $400 million; the term loan
will have lower spreads and a swapped fixed rate of approximately
3%.

The company's payout ratio has increased significantly over the
past two years, with GPT paying out 85.3% of its adjusted funds
from operations (AFFO) in dividends in 2Q17, compared with 76.9%
for 4Q16 and 50.3% in 2015. The higher payout ratio is the result
of a combination of lower AFFO per share and an increase in the
company's quarterly dividend per share to $0.375 from $0.33
effective 4Q16. Fitch expects the company's payout ratio to sustain
in the 70% range on a long-term basis.

FULL LIST OF RATING ACTIONS

Fitch has affirmed the following ratings:

Gramercy Property Trust:
-- Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at 'BBB';
-- Preferred stock at 'BB+'.

GPT Operating Partnership LP
-- Senior unsecured revolving credit facility at 'BBB';
-- Senior unsecured term loans at 'BBB';
-- Senior unsecured notes at 'BBB';
-- Senior unsecured convertible notes at 'BBB'.

GPT Property Trust LP:

The Rating Outlook is Negative.


GRAND ABBACO: Trustee's Sale of All Assets to B & B for $5.4M OK'd
------------------------------------------------------------------
Judge A. Jay Cristol of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Florida authorized the Purchase and Sale Agreement of
Drew M. Dillworth, Chapter 11 Trustee for Grand Abbaco Development
of Village West Corp. and Nassau Development of Village West Corp.,
with B and B Grove Properties, LLC in connection with the sale of
substantially all assets of the Debtors for $5,400,000.

The Trustee has determined the $5,400,000 Purchase Price for all of
the Assets will be allocated by the Court as follows: (i) to the
estate of Nassau Development of Village West Corp., the sum of
$3,618,000 and (ii) to the estate of Grand Abbaco Development of
Village West Corp., the sum of $1,782,000.

The Trustee conducted an Auction of the Assets on Oct. 13, 2017, at
10:00 a.m.  The Qualified Bidders were identified as Stalking Horse
Bidder GV Nassau, LLC, TC Grove Investments, LLC, Crunch
Properties, LLC, and the Purchaser.  At the Auction, the Purchaser
submitted the highest monetary bid for the Nassau Assets and Abbaco
Assets in bulk in an amount of $5,400,000.  

In addition, at the Auction, as required by the Title Company,
Orlando Benitez, Jr., agreed to use his best efforts to obtain a
corrective deed to cure what the Trustee described broadly to the
Court prior to the commencement of the Auction as a "wild deed" as
to the lot located at 3441 Grand Avenue from his mother, Rosa
Benitez .

The Court retains exclusive jurisdiction to consider any
supplemental relief, court proceeding or related process to enforce
the Trustee's rights to sell, and B and B Grove Properties' rights,
title and interest to own in fee simple, the lot located at 3441
Grand Avenue, Coconut Grove, Florida.

Crunch Properties is approved as the Back-Up Bidder for the Nassau
Assets in the amount of $3,395,000 and TC Grove Investments is
approved as the Back-Up Bidder for the Abbaco Assets in the amount
of $1,950,000.

The sale of the Assets pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the
Order will be free and clear of any and all Liens and Encumbrances
except the Permitted Exceptions.  All such Liens and Encumbrances
(except the Permitted Exceptions) on and in respect of the Assets
will attach to the proceeds of the sale of the Assets pursuant to
the Order, the Benitez Order and the Diaz Order to the same extent
and with the same priority as such Liens and Encumbrances existed
in respect of the Assets immediately prior to the Closing Date.

There were no brokers involved in the Sale of the Assets.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h),
6006(d), or any other rule providing for a stay of the
effectiveness of the Order, the Order will be effective and
enforceable immediately upon entry and its provisions will be
self-executing.  The Trustee and B and B Grove Properties are free
to close under the Purchase Agreement in accordance with the Order.
Any party objecting to the Order must exercise due diligence in
filing an appeal and pursuing a stay, or risk its appeal being
rendered moot.

Notwithstanding anything in the Order to the contrary, the sale of
the Assets to B and B Grove Properties will be immediately stayed
pending any appeal of the Order by one possessing appellate
standing upon the posting of a bond in the amount of $6,210,000 by
the appealing party ("Bond"), which constitutes 115% of the
Purchase Price ($5,400,000).  The appeal of the Order, coupled with
the posting of the Bond, will stay the sale of the Assets pending
an appeal of this Order and/or the Order Denying Motion for
Reconsideration to the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of Florida.

Upon the posting of the Bond, the sale of the Assets will not
proceed until the appeal is fully resolved and the Bond is fully
discharged.  The Bond may be discharged only by order of the Court
after notice and hearing to all parties in interest, including B
and B Grove Properties.  The Bond will constitute security for (i)
any loss or damage suffered by the Nassau bankruptcy estate or the
Grand Abbaco bankruptcy estate as a result of or related to the
stay, including but not limited to, any increase in claims of
creditors of either estate and (iii) any loss or damage suffered by
B and B Grove Properties as a result of the stay.

The Oder is not intended to confer standing on any party to pursue
a claim against the bond.  Parties in interest reserve any and all
rights to pursue claims against the bond.  Any such alleged losses
or damages will be determined and apportioned by the Court after
notice and a hearing.  In the event of an appeal of the Order by
more than one appellant, any appellant who posted the Bond and
subsequently withdraws or dismisses its appeal will not be entitled
to discharge of the Bond unless the Bond is replaced in full by any
remaining appellant(s).  Any such replacement bond will then be
deemed to constitute the Bond.

In the event the Sale transaction with B and B Grove Properties
does not close as required by the Purchase Agreement and the Order,
and the Trustee proceeds with a closing with each of the Back-Up
Bidders as a result, then upon the request of either Back-Up Bidder
or the Trustee, the Court will entertain any supplemental orders
confirming such sales to the Back-Up Bidders and making any
findings or conclusions in connection therewith based on the record
before the Court.

GREAT FALLS DIOCESE: Kirbys Buying Black Eagle Property for $250K
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Roman Catholic Bishop of Great Falls, Montana, asks the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Montana to authorize the
private sale of Most Blessed Sacrament Parish real property,
located at 1325 Smelter Avenue, N.E., Black Eagle, Cascade County,
Montana to Arthur R. Kirby and Anita J. Kirby for $250,000.

Objections, if any, must be filed within 14 days of the date of the
Motion.

The property being sold is legally described as a tract of land in
the SE 1/4 Section 36, Township 21 North, Range 3 East, M.P.M.,
Cascade County, Montana, described as Tract 3 of the Blessed
Sacrament Addition, minor subdivision plat filed 10/18/2017 as
P-2017-0000029, records of Cascade County, Montana.  It is a land
of approximately 1.33 acres, and includes a rectory, church and
church parking lot.  Two large unimproved lots of approximately
1.93 acres to the north will be retained.  The property has been
for sale for over a year, and the offer of $250,000 is the best
offer received.  

Initially, all of the property (3.26 acres plus improvements) was
offered for sale for $350,000.  That figure was determined from a
market analysis completed in 2011, wherein the value was determined
at $262,640.  The care and maintenance of the property is very
expensive due to its run-down condition, and the fact that the
Parish has little money to afford continuing upkeep of the
property.  The main cost is insurance, which is over $16,000
annually.  Also, the property tax exemption is going to be lost due
to non-use as a church, as it has not been used as a church since
August 2016.  There have been three break-ins in the last year.

Advertising was done via posting a "for sale" sign on the property.
The property was posted for about four months from August 2016
through February 2017.  However, discussions were had with
interested individuals prior to August 2016.  A sales price was
determined to be between $300,000 to $350,000 for all the
properties, based off the market analysis, wherein the valuation
was set at $262,640.  Offers were received for all the property
ranging from $250,000, down to as low as $100,000.  

The offer of $250,000 for part of the property and the improvements
was by far the best received.  The Diocese will receive the entire
net purchase price, after payment of the realtor's commission,
which will be held in a segregated account, which will not be
accessed pending confirmation of a Plan of Reorganization, or by
further Order of the Court.

The sale is of surplus assets of the Most Blessed Sacrament Parish,
which owns the facility under Canon law, but under civil law the
real property is titled in the name of the Diocese of Great Falls.
The Most Blessed Sacrament Parish has been combined with the St.
Luke's Parish and the St. Joseph's Parish to become the Corpus
Christi Parish.  The sale of the property allows the Church to
continue its ministry by assisting the Parish in completing its
part of the transaction, and to relieve itself of a huge burden for
care and maintenance of the subject property, which is surplus.
The DIP believes the property, and any proceeds therefrom, are held
in trust by the Debtor for the Corpus Christi Parish.  These funds
will be segregated and not used until further Order of the Court.

The Purchasers and the Debtor entered into the Buy-Sell Agreement
for the private sale of the Property for $250,000 with $5,000
earnest money to be applied at closing.  The Debtor intends to
close no later than 10 days after Bankruptcy Court approval.  The
Closing will take place at Stewart Title in Great Falls, Montana.

No liens exist with the exception of unpaid real property taxes up
to date of closing, which will be paid at closing.  The Debtor
estimates the value of the property to be sold at $250,000, as set
forth in the market analysis.  Title insurance and other closing
costs are estimated at $6,000 and will be paid at closing and out
of proceeds of sale.

Coldwell Banker and Kathy Meadors have applied the Court to have
her Commission Agreement approved.  Per listing agreement, Coldwell
Banker is entitled to a commission of 3% of the sales price, or
$7,500.  Coldwell Banker will make further application to be paid
at closing out of proceeds of sale.

GULF COAST HOSPICE: Wants More Time to Exclusively File Plan
------------------------------------------------------------
Gulf Coast Hospice of Houston, Ltd., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of Texas to extend for 90 days its
exclusive plan filing period to Dec. 13, 2017, and its exclusive
solicitation period to March 13, 2018.

The U.S. Bankruptcy Code Section 1121(b) provides for an initial
120-day period after the Petition Date within which the Debtor has
the exclusive right to file a Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization.
Bankruptcy Code Section 1121(c) further provides for an initial
180-day period after the Petition Date within which the Debtor has
the exclusive right to solicit and obtain acceptances of a Plan of
Reorganization if a Plan has been filed during the first 120-day
period.

This is the Debtor's first request for extension of exclusivity.

A copy of the Debtor's request is available at:

           http://bankrupt.com/misc/txsb17-31653-43.pdf

Headquartered in Sugar Land, Texas, Gulf Coast Hospice of Houston,
Ltd., is a Texas limited partnership and operates as a hospice care
agency in the Houston area.  Though the company experienced a
reduction of business over the past several months, the
organization remains operational and expects to continue operations
now that the business is gradually increasing.

The Debtor filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr. S.D.
Tex. Case No. 17-31653) on March 17, 2017, estimating its assets at
between $100,001 and $500,000 and its liabilities at between
$500,001 and $1 million.

The Debtor is represented by Timothy Webb, Esq., at Webb
Associates.


HKD TREATMENT: Wants to Use Wells Fargo's Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------------
HKD Treatment Options, P.C., seeks authorization from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Massachusetts to use Wells
Fargo Bank, N.A.'s cash collateral.

The Debtor needs the Courts' immediate authority to use the cash
collateral in order to continue the operation of its business and
paying the costs of maintaining and preserving its business.  These
costs include, but are not limited to, the purchase of medications,
lab testing and outsourcing, wages, taxes, utilities, insurance,
legal and accounting fees, and other costs of operating the
treatment facility.  In order to meet these obligations and avoid
disruption of the business, the Debtor will need to utilize the
proceeds generated through the operation of its business.  Unless
the Debtor is authorized to use cash collateral, the Debtor will be
unable to continue business operations and perform its obligations
to its patients, the secured creditor, the taxing authorities, the
Debtor's employees, and its vendors.  This will result in all
parties and the estate suffering significant harm and irreparable
economic loss.

The projected monthly budget for funding the Debtor's business
operations over the next three months.  The Proposed Budget also
includes the U.S. Trustee's estimated distribution.  By this
motion, the Debtor seeks authority to use cash collateral generated
through ownership and operation of the business to pay the expenses
of ownership and operation of the business, up to the amounts set
forth in the Budget.

The Debtor says that adequate protection for any diminution in the
value as of the Petition Date in the interest of the cash
collateral claimant in its cash collateral that results from the
Debtor's use thereof, the Debtor proposes that the cash collateral
claimant be granted post-petition replacements liens on the same
types of post-petition property of the estate against which they
held liens as of the Petition Date.  The Replacement Liens will
maintain the same priority, validity and enforcement as the cash
collateral claimant or other creditors holding or asserting cash
collateral interests.  The Replacement Liens will be recognized,
however, only to the extent of any diminution in the value of the
cash collateral claimant's or any other creditor's pre-petition
collateral after the Petition Date resulting from the Debtor's use
of cash collateral during the Chapter 11 case.

As of the petition date, the Debtor was indebted to Wells Fargo in
the amount of $122,888.  As additional adequate protection,
notwithstanding the fact that the cash collateral claimant, which
may be under-secured, the Debtor proposes to pay Wells Fargo its
current monthly payment of $2,509.80.

In order to maintain business operations through Jan. 31, 2018, by

The Hon. Steven M. Spector of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the

collateral through and including Dec. 13, 2017.

A hearing to consider the continued use of cash collateral is
scheduled for Dec. 13, 2017, at 11:00 a.m.

During the interim period, the Debtors are authorized, directly or
through Radiant Physician Group, to make monthly expenditures in an
amount not to exceed 115% of the actual and necessary expenditures
set forth in the Operative Budget without the consent or approval
of Opus Bank or further court order.

During the Interim Period, the Debtors are authorized, directly or

operative budget with the prior written approval of Opus, which
approval will not be unreasonably withheld, or court order.

During the Interim Period, any and all financial institutions
holding funds of the bankruptcy estates are instructed to allow the
Debtors to utilize the funds.

Without adjudging or otherwise determining the validity, extent, or
enforceability thereof, and notwithstanding the authorization
hereby granted with respect to the same, as adequate protection of
the Debtors' use of the cash collateral of Opus Bank and to the
extent that the cash collateral is actually used, Opus Bank is
granted a replacement lien in the Hoag Memorial Hospital
Presbyterian collateral (as defined in Opus Bank's Notice of
non-consent to use of cash collateral by the Debtor and preliminary
opposition to Debtor's forthcoming motion for use of cash
collateral and the Cypress-Laguna collateral (as defined in the

assets.

As partial adequate protection of Opus Bank's interest in the
collateral and in the cash collateral, the Debtors will tender to
Opus Bank a monthly adequate protection payment in the amount of
$18,500 payable to Opus Bank no later than one business day
following this court order, with subsequent payment(s) to be made
every 30 days thereafter unless otherwise modified by the court
order.  Each $18,500 payment to Opus Bank will be tendered by
either wire transfer or certified cashier's check as follows:
$9,250 to be paid by Hoag Urgent Care-Tustin, Inc., Hoag Urgent
Care-Huntington Harbour, Inc., and/or Hoag Urgent Care, Anaheim

indebtedness secured by the collateral as permitted under the
applicable loan documents.  All parties reserve all rights
respecting the application and allocation of the adequate
protection payments made pursuant to this court order.

As partial adequate protection of Newport Healthcare, LLC's
interests in the Debtors, the Debtors will tender Newport a monthly
adequate protection payment in the amount of $3,500 payable to
Newport by either wire transfer or certified cashier's check no
later than one business day following the entry of this court
order, with subsequent payment(s) to be made every 30 days

HUNTSMAN CORP: S&P Affirms 'BB' CCR Amid Failed Clairant Merger
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its ratings, including its 'BB'
corporate credit rating on Huntsman Corp. and its wholly-owned
subsidiary Huntsman International LLC. S&P said, "At the same time
we affirmed our 'BBB-' issue rating, with a '1' recovery
rating,indicating our expectation of very high (90%-100%; rounded
estimate: 95%) recovery on the company's senior secured debt in the
event of payment default. We also affirmed out 'BB' issue rating,
with a '3' recovery rating on the company's junior debt, indicating
our expectation of meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 55%)
recovery in the event of a payment default. The outlook is
positive."

S&P  said, "We affirmed our corporate credit rating on Huntsman
Corp. and its subsidiary Huntsman International LLC following the
announcement by Huntsman and Clariant that the proposed merger
between the two companies would not go ahead. Our previous base
case assumptions did not factor in the merger of the two companies
because of our view of uncertainties related to the proposed
transaction. As a result, we do not believe that the merger's
termination will impact credit quality. Our ratings reflect
Huntsman's favorable competitive and market positions in a range of
specialty chemicals, offset by some vulnerability to commodity raw
material price volatility, and moderate S&P Global Ratings-adjusted
EBITDA margins in the 13% to 15% range.

"The positive outlook reflects our expectation that Huntsman's
credit profile could benefit if the company utilized proceeds from
any future sale of Venator shares to pay down debt, and from the
possibility of slightly stronger EBITDA in 2018 relative to our
previous expectations. We do not factor such debt paydowns or share
sales in our base case, given the market-related uncertainties
involved in the timing of such share sales. We recognize that
Huntsman has in the third quarter of 2017 demonstrated its
willingness to reduce debt, when it utilized proceeds from the
Venator IPO to pay down around $1.2 billion in debt in the third
quarter of 2017.

"In our base case we assumed that the ratio of FFO will be above
the midpoint of thee 20% to 30% (pro forma for the complete
separation of Venator) range over the next 12 months. Our base case
also assumes that EBITDA for 2018(pro forma for the separation of
Venator) will be above $1.1 billion supported by an improvement in
organic operating performance in the company's remaining
businesses. Despite the potential for some volatility, we
anticipate that favorable GDP growth of over 2% in key markets such
as the U.S. and Europe will support demand for the company's
products."

S&P said, "We could revise the outlook to stable over the next 12
months under the following conditions: The company was unable or
unwilling to sell down at least a portion of its remaining stake in
Venator and use proceeds to pay down debt, and if we believed that
operating performance would not support an improvement of ratios
including that of FFO to total debt above 30%. Operating
performance issues that could prevent a strengthening of the ratio
include unanticipated softness in pricing or demand for some of the
company's polyurethanes, performance products, advanced materials,
or textile effects products, or unexpected macroeconomic shocks
including negative GDP growth. We would also consider a negative
rating action if the company undertook any merger or acquisition
that either weakened credit metrics or stalled prospects for an
improvement in these metrics."

Upside scenario

S&P said, "We could also consider an upgrade in the next 12 months
if the company pays down significant debt in excess of $400 million
using proceeds from future sales of Venator shares or other sources
so that the ratio of FFO to total was expected to be above 30% on a
sustainable basis. We also recognize the company's improved
operating performance in the third quarter of 2017, and the
potential this creates for EBITDA to exceed our base case
expectations. Thus, we could consider an upgrade if, against our
base case expectations, operating performance improvement caused
the ratio of FFO to total debt to exceed 30% in the next 12
months."


ILLINOIS STAR: Wants Exclusive Plan Filing Extended to Jan. 2
-------------------------------------------------------------
Illinois Star Centre, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Illinois to extend its plan filing deadline
and plan filing exclusive period through and including Jan. 2,
2018, and that its plan acceptance exclusive period through and
including March 2, 2018.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Oct. 2, 2017, the
Court extended the Debtor's plan filing deadline and plan filing
exclusive period through Oct. 31, 2017; and the plan acceptance
exclusive period through Jan. 2, 2018.

Given the Debtor's pending negotiations with its tenants and
ongoing litigation with its largest potential creditor, the Debtor
submits that it would be reasonable to allow the Debtor an
extension of the plan filing deadline and plan filing exclusive
period through Jan. 2, 2018, and an extension of the plan
acceptance exclusive period through March 2, 2018.

A copy of the Debtor's request is available at:

                   About Illinois Star Centre

Illinois Star Centre LLC owns the Illinois Star Centre Mall located
at 3000 W. Deyoung Street, Marion.  The mall, which is valued at
$5.5 million, offers more than 50 stores and restaurants and serves
the Southern Illinois Community with events that showcase local
talent.

The Debtor sought protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code (Bankr. S.D. Ill. Case No. 17-30691) on May 4, 2017.  The
petition was signed by Empire Tax Corp. by Dennis D. Ballinger,
Jr., its managing member.

At the time of the filing, the Debtor disclosed $5.6 million in
assets and zero liability.

The case is assigned to Judge Laura K. Grandy.  Carmody MacDonald,
P.C., represents the Debtor as bankruptcy counsel.  The Debtor
hired Hoffman Slocomb LLC, as its special counsel.

No official committee of unsecured creditors has been appointed in
the case.


INTEGER HOLDINGS: S&P Raises Secured Debt Rating to B+
------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings raised its issue-level rating on Frisco,
Texas-based medical device outsource manufacturer Integer Holdings
Corp.'s secured debt to 'B+' from 'B.' The secured debt includes
the company's $200 million revolver, $375 million term loan A, and
$1.025 billion term loan B, of which approximately $870 million
remains outstanding. Recovery prospects improve following the
company's gradual repayment of senior secured debt because the
secured debt now represents a smaller portion of the total debt.
S&P revised the recovery rating on this debt to '2' from '3'.

S&P said, "We also assigned a 'B+' issue-level rating to the
company's proposed repriced term loan B. The recovery rating is
'2'. The pricing on the proposed term loan B moves to LIBOR plus
325 basis points from LIBOR plus 350 basis points. We expect the
debt proceeds to refinance the company's existing term loan B; we
expect to withdraw the ratings on this after the transaction
closes.

"The '2' recovery rating on the company's secured debt indicates
our expectation for meaningful (70%-90%; rounded estimate: 70%)
recovery in the event of default. Our ratings on the senior
unsecured notes remain 'CCC+' and the recovery rating is '6',
indicating our expectation for negligible (0%-10%; rounded
estimate: 5%) recovery in the event of default.

"Our 'B' corporate credit rating reflects our assessment of the
company's business risk as weak and financial risk as highly
leveraged. The outlook is stable.

"Our assessment of business risk reflects Integer's high customer
concentration, original equipment manufacturing (OEM) insourcing
risk, our view that the scope of the company's services are
somewhat narrow, with limited barriers to entry, and its exposure
to intense price-based competition. This is partially offset by its
market leadership position within fragmented and somewhat
commodity-like industry of contract manufacturers (CMOs) servicing
medical device companies. The company offers a broader array of
manufacturing services than other smaller CMOs, has good
profitability, and has sticky, long-term contracts and
relationships with customers.

"Our assessment of financial risk reflects our expectation that
debt leverage will be sustained above 5x and funds from operations
to debt below 12% over the next two years. We also expect the
company to continue generating substantial free cash flow."

JACK ROSS: Jamie Jo Parker Objects to 2nd Amended Plan, Disclosures
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Jamie Jo Parker filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Nevada an objection to Jack Ross Industries, LLC's
second amended plan of reorganization and second amended disclosure
statement.

Mrs. Parker is a priority unsecured creditor in this case for
unpaid wages in the amount of $12,850.  The Debtor scheduled a
claim for Mrs. Parker on its Schedule F in the unsecured amount of
$210,000, and her claim was included as a Class 4 General Unsecured
Claim in the Debtor's Plan.  Mrs. Parker's Class 4 claim arises out
of a Decree of Divorce between Mrs. Parker and the Debtor's
principal, Christopher Wayne Parker.

Mrs. Parker objects to the Debtor's Plan on the basis that it
discriminates unfairly and violates the absolute priority rule
because the Class 5 member will retain his membership interest in
the Debtor even though Class 4 unsecured creditors are not being
paid the present value of their claims through the Plan.
Additionally, the Plan proposes to pay Class 4 creditors in
quarterly disbursements over a period of approximately 17 years --
which is far too lengthy a period.  The Plan is also not feasible
based on a review of the Debtor's financial statements attached to
its Monthly Operating Reports on file, Mrs. Parker says.

Mrs. Parker also objects to the Plan to the extent it would attempt
to cancel the personal obligation of Mr. Parker to pay Mrs. Parker
the principal sum of $225,000 at 5% interest over 10 years, arising
out of the parties' Decree of Divorce.

Mrs. Parker objects to final approval of the adequacy of the
Disclosure Statement because it lacks sufficient financial
information to support the Debtor's revenue and expense
projections.  The Debtor has also failed to file any Monthly
Operating Reports after June 2017, so creditors are not able to
review the Debtor's financial activity for July, August or
September 2017.

A copy of the Objection is available at:

          http://bankrupt.com/misc/nvb16-51053-160.pdf

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Sept. 25, 2017, the
Debtor filed a restructuring plan, which proposes that unsecured
creditors receive a quarterly payment of $22,000 under the
company's latest plan to exit Chapter 11 protection. Class 4
general unsecured claims will receive quarterly disbursements of
their pro rata portion of a quarterly distribution of $22,000,
without interest, until paid in full.

KLEEN ENERGY: Fitch Affirms BB Ratings on 2018 and 2024 Term Loans
------------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed at 'BB' the ratings for Kleen Energy
Systems, LLC's $435 million ($39 million outstanding) Term Loan A
due 2018 and $295 million ($241.3 million outstanding) Term Loan B
due 2024. The Rating Outlook is revised to Positive from Stable.

The Positive Outlook reflects the project's ability to service debt
from contracted capacity revenues, supported by continuing stable
operating performance in the last three years. In a stressed cost
scenario excluding merchant revenue, the project is expected to
maintain an average debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) of 1.38x,
indicative of potential for positive rating action.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

The ratings reflect Kleen's stable base of capacity payments under
a long-term contract with a strong, investment-grade offtaker,
moderated by the facility's uncertain competitiveness in a merchant
environment. The reduced debt service burden after 2017 should
substantially mitigate operating risks, though the level of
financial cushion will depend upon Kleen's unproven profitability
as a merchant generator.

Fitch believes that Kleen's financial profile has stabilized, as
the project has recorded three consecutive years of improved
operating results. Kleen achieved a DSCR of 1.40x (exclusive of
insurance proceeds) in 2016, consistent with Fitch's expectations
during the prior annual review. The 2017 DSCR is expected to remain
in line with 2016. The project remains current on target
amortization payments and is expected to fully repay the Term Loan
A by June 2018. After the tolling agreement expires in 2017,
capacity payments alone should be adequate to support an average
base case DSCR of 1.44x.

Contracted Core Revenues - Revenue Risk: Midrange
Fixed price agreements: Kleen's revenues are currently derived from
a fixed-price tolling agreement with Exelon Generating Company, LLC
(BBB/Stable) and a capacity agreement with Connecticut Light &
Power (A-/Stable), partially mitigating price risks through 2017
when the tolling agreement expires. The project remains subject to
replacement power costs in the event of a forced outage under the
tolling agreement. Kleen is vulnerable to margin risks during the
post-2017 merchant period but is not dependent on market-based
revenues, as capacity payments alone should be sufficient to meet
debt service requirements.

Volatile Operating Expenses - Operations Risk: Weaker
Kleen's historical operating performance has been inconsistent.
Actual costs exceeded original projections by a wide margin and
demonstrated considerable volatility. Kleen's ability to maintain
consistent availability remains uncertain based on Kleen's history
of forced outages. Kleen otherwise benefits from commercially
proven technology operated and maintained by experienced O&M
providers.

Access to Ample Fuel Supplies - Supply Risk: Midrange
Volumetric risks are minimal, as the project is situated in a
highly liquid and competitive natural gas market. The tolling
counterparty bears natural gas supply risks through 2017. Kleen's
dual-fuel capability buffers against temporary supply disruptions.

Mitigated Refinancing Risk - Debt Structure: Midrange
Fitch believes Kleen will likely fully repay the Term Loan A by
maturity in June 2018. Capacity payments are expected to be
sufficient to cover remaining Term Loan B amortization. The debt
structure includes features typical for project financings, such as
a letter of credit (L/C) backed six-month debt service reserve fund
(DSRF) and a distribution test.

Financial Profile:
Recent and expected performance provides Kleen with financial
cushion to cover variable cost risk and contractual penalties under
the tolling agreement. The potential for a missed target
amortization payment is limited, given the tolling agreement
expires at the end of 2017 and the Term Loan A is fully repaid by
June 2018. Fitch-projected DSCRs generally range between 1.37x and
1.47x during the merchant period based solely on contractual
capacity revenues. Credit quality may improve to the extent
merchant revenues cover related variable costs and are accretive to
the coverage levels.

PEER GROUP
Kleen's credit quality is consistent with other thermal projects in
the 'BB' rating category. Lea Power Partners, LLC (BB+/Stable) has
stabilized its operating costs, and cash flows are sufficient to
support a higher average rating case DSCR of 1.38x. Conversely, CE
Generation LLC (BB-, redeemed in 2017) was exposed to a greater
degree of price risk with rating case DSCRs that fell below
breakeven, such that the project was reliant upon sponsor support.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Future Developments That May, Individually or Collectively, Lead to
Negative Rating Action:

-- Increases in costs would heighten the project's vulnerability
    to operating event risks.
-- Persistently low availability, repeated forced outages, or an
    accelerated degradation in heat rates resulting in contractual

    penalties.

Future Developments That May, Individually or Collectively, Lead to
Positive Rating Action:

-- Stable financial profile resulting from a stable operational
    profile and a favourable competitive position in the merchant
    period.

CREDIT UPDATE

Performance Update
Kleen's financial profile is stabilizing, as the project has
recorded more than three consecutive years of improved operating
results. Kleen achieved a DSCR of 1.4x in 2016, and the 2017 DSCR
is expected to remain at 1.4x based on results in the first half of
2017. The project is now current on target amortization payments
and continues to rapidly deleverage as the maturity of the Term
Loan A approaches in June 2018. Kleen has maintained availability
of more than 98% with a stable heat rate close to 7,100 btu/kWh in
2016 and 2017. While the average capacity factor has decreased from
80% in 2016 to 74% year to date 2017, it is still relatively high
and suggests that the tolling agreement remains economic for the
offtaker. Although this bodes well for the project's capacity to
earn merchant revenues, Kleen's competitiveness in a merchant
environment remains untested.

The recovery of Kleen's financial profile has tracked the
improvement in operational performance. Fitch projects a year-end
(YE) 2017 DSCR of 1.4x based on a cost profile grounded in the past
three years of relatively stable operations. Financial performance
for the first half 2017 is stable with lower operating expenses in
comparison to the same period of 2016.

Kleen's post-2017 financial profile will primarily depend upon the
facility's competitiveness as a merchant generator. Many of the
unanticipated costs that Kleen has incurred, such as RGGI
allowances and the Connecticut Gross Receipts Tax, largely reflect
Kleen's lack of dispatch control. A prudently run merchant facility
would only incur these costs if the market price of electricity
justified the all-in cost of dispatch. Fitch estimates that DSCRs
would average 1.44x, assuming only the receipt of contractual
capacity payments.

Fitch believes that this scenario represents a conservative view of
projected financial performance, given the current level of natural
gas prices and the position of Kleen within the dispatch stack.
Projected financial performance could potentially support credit
quality above the current rating once the tolling period expires
and the outstanding balance of the Term Loan A is repaid.

Fitch Cases
Under Fitch base case projections, where Fitch rely solely on
contracted cash flows under the Capacity Agreement, average and
minimum DSCR are at 1.44x and 1.37x, respectively.

Fitch also ran a stress case based on higher fixed and variable
expenses. This resulted in minimum and average DSCRs of 1.32x and
1.38x, respectively. Fitch believe this scenario is unlikely to
materialize as the project's operating performance has been
stabilizing recently.

Asset Description
Kleen is a special-purpose company created to own and operate the
project, which consists of a 620-megawatt combined-cycle electric
generating facility located near Middletown, CT. Kleen sells
capacity under a 15-year agreement with Connecticut Light & Power.
Exelon Generation Company purchases the facility's energy output
under a seven-year tolling agreement. Exelon Corp. (IDR
BBB/Stable), ExGen's parent, has partially guaranteed ExGen's
contractual obligations.

The collateral includes a first-priority security interest in the
ownership interests in Kleen, all real and personal property,
including Kleen's rights under the project documents, the project
accounts, and all revenues.

LEON RAMIREZ: Cheetah Buying Promissory Note Remaining Balance
--------------------------------------------------------------
Leon Oscar Ramirez Jr. and Rosalinda Eckhardt ask the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas to authorize

MOUNTAIN CREEK RESORT: Wants Plan Filing Period Moved to Jan. 22
----------------------------------------------------------------
Mountain Creek Resort, Inc. and its debtor-affiliates ask the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey to extend the
period during which the Debtors have the exclusive right to file a
Chapter 11 plan through and including Jan. 22, 2018, from Nov. 22,
2017, and the period during which the Debtors have the exclusive
right to solicit votes thereon through and including March 23,
2018, from Jan. 22, 2018.

A hearing to consider the Debtors' request is scheduled for Nov.
21, 2017, at 11:00 a.m. (ET).  Objections to the Debtors' request
must be filed by Nov. 14, 2017.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Sept. 11, 2017, the
Court extended the periods during which only the Debtors have the
exclusive right to file a Chapter 11 plan and to solicit votes
thereon through Jan. 10, 2018, and March 13, 2018, respectively,
saying that not only have they been occupied over various
time-sensitive matters in their Chapter 11 cases, but they have not
yet been able to conduct a fulsome review of the claims that will
be treated under a Chapter 11 plan because creditors may still be
filing additional claims.

Rather than engage in potentially time-consuming and expensive
litigation with M&T Bank, the Debtors' largest secured creditor,
regarding its objections to the length of the requested extension,
the Debtors agreed to an initial two-month extension of the
Exclusive Periods to Nov. 22, 2017, and Jan. 22, 2018, with the
understanding that an additional extension would be sought.  The
Debtors are now seeking a second modest two-month extension (an
aggregate extension of four months) that would expand the exclusive
periods to approximately the dates originally requested.

The Debtors submit that sufficient cause exists to extend the
exclusive periods under Section 1121(d) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code
because, on balance, the relevant factors weigh decidedly in favor
of the modest extension requested by the Debtors.  These Chapter 11
cases involve five debtors that have diverse creditor groups and
interests.  Although they are not mega-cases, they are large and
complex, having multiple layers of secured debt (M&T, Kuzari and
HSK), obligations to municipal authorities, noteholders, personal
injury claimants, and trade debt.

The Debtors say they have also made good faith progress towards
their reorganization effort during the five months since the
commencement of the case on May 15, 2017.  The Debtors have made
significant progress during the initial five months of their
Chapter 11 cases including, but not limited to:

     a) resolving operational issues such as obtaining up to $5
        million in debtor-in-possession financing and receiving
        authorization for the use of cash collateral through six
        interim approving financing and use of cash collateral;

     b) negotiating and obtaining court approval of agreements
        with critical vendors, utility providers, convenience
        class creditors, and insurance providers;

     c) preparing the Debtors' Schedules of Assets and
        Liabilities and Statements of Financial Affairs;

     d) meeting all requirements in the UST Guidelines and
        complying reporting requirements in connection with the
        interim DIP court orders;

     e) establishing a General Bar Date of Sept. 11, 2017, and a
        Governmental Bar Date of Nov. 13, 2017;

     f) paying all of its post-petition obligations on a timely
        basis; and

     g) attending to various other issues in connection with the
        daily operation of the Debtors' businesses and navigating
        these Chapter 11 cases.  

At this point, the Debtors are considering all of their chapter 11
plan alternatives and have begun the process of engaging in
restructuring discussions with key stakeholders.

The Debtors said they have continued to comply with all applicable
reporting requirements, like those under the U.S. Trustee
Guidelines and those required by the interim DIP court orders.  In
addition, they have successfully met the projections set forth in
the budgets approved by the interim DIP court orders while paying
all post-petition obligations on a timely basis.

NASSAU DEVELOPMENT: Trustee's $5.4M Sale of All Assets Approved
---------------------------------------------------------------
Judge A. Jay Cristol of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Florida authorized the Purchase and Sale Agreement of
Drew M. Dillworth, Chapter 11 Trustee for Nassau Development of
Village West Corp. and Grand Abbaco Development of Village West
Corp., with B and B Grove Properties, LLC in connection with the
sale of substantially all assets of the Debtors for $5,400,000.

The Trustee has determined the $5,400,000 Purchase Price for all of
the Assets will be allocated by the Court as follows: (i) to the
estate of Nassau Development of Village West Corp., the sum of
$3,618,000 and (ii) to the estate of Grand Abbaco Development of
Village West Corp., the sum of $1,782,000.

The Trustee conducted an Auction of the Assets on Oct. 13, 2017, at
10:00 a.m.  The Qualified Bidders were identified as Stalking Horse
Bidder GV Nassau, LLC, TC Grove Investments, LLC, Crunch
Properties, LLC, and the Purchaser.  At the Auction, the Purchaser
submitted the highest monetary bid for the Nassau Assets and Abbaco
Assets in bulk in an amount of $5,400,000.  

In addition, at the Auction, as required by the Title Company,
Orlando Benitez, Jr., agreed to use his best efforts to obtain a
corrective deed to cure what the Trustee described broadly to the
Court prior to the commencement of the Auction as a "wild deed" as
to the lot located at 3441 Grand Avenue from his mother, Rosa
Benitez .

The Court retains exclusive jurisdiction to consider any
supplemental relief, court proceeding or related process to enforce
the Trustee's rights to sell, and B and B Grove Properties' rights,
title and interest to own in fee simple, the lot located at 3441
Grand Avenue, Coconut Grove, Florida.

Crunch Properties is approved as the Back-Up Bidder for the Nassau
Assets in the amount of $3,395,000 and TC Grove Investments is
approved as the Back-Up Bidder for the Abbaco Assets in the amount
of $1,950,000.

The sale of the Assets pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the
Order will be free and clear of any and all Liens and Encumbrances
except the Permitted Exceptions.  All such Liens and Encumbrances
(except the Permitted Exceptions) on and in respect of the Assets
will attach to the proceeds of the sale of the Assets pursuant to
the Order, the Benitez Order and the Diaz Order to the same extent
and with the same priority as such Liens and Encumbrances existed
in respect of the Assets immediately prior to the Closing Date.

There were no brokers involved in the Sale of the Assets.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h),
6006(d), or any other rule providing for a stay of the
effectiveness of the Order, the Order will be effective and
enforceable immediately upon entry and its provisions will be
self-executing.  The Trustee and B and B Grove Properties are free
to close under the Purchase Agreement in accordance with the Order.
Any party objecting to the Order must exercise due diligence in
filing an appeal and pursuing a stay, or risk its appeal being
rendered moot.

Notwithstanding anything in the Order to the contrary, the sale of
the Assets to B and B Grove Properties will be immediately stayed
pending any appeal of the Order by one possessing appellate
standing upon the posting of a bond in the amount of $6,210,000 by
the appealing party ("Bond"), which constitutes 115% of the
Purchase Price ($5,400,000).  The appeal of the Order, coupled with
the posting of the Bond, will stay the sale of the Assets pending
an appeal of this Order and/or the Order Denying Motion for
Reconsideration to the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of Florida.

Upon the posting of the Bond, the sale of the Assets will not
proceed until the appeal is fully resolved and the Bond is fully
discharged.  The Bond may be discharged only by order of the Court
after notice and hearing to all parties in interest, including B
and B Grove Properties.  The Bond will constitute security for (i)
any loss or damage suffered by the Nassau bankruptcy estate or the
Grand Abbaco bankruptcy estate as a result of or related to the
stay, including but not limited to, any increase in claims of
creditors of either estate and (iii) any loss or damage suffered by
B and B Grove Properties as a result of the stay.

The Oder is not intended to confer standing on any party to pursue
a claim against the bond.  Parties in interest reserve any and all
rights to pursue claims against the bond.  Any such alleged losses
or damages will be determined and apportioned by the Court after
notice and a hearing.  In the event of an appeal of the Order by
more than one appellant, any appellant who posted the Bond and
subsequently withdraws or dismisses its appeal will not be entitled
to discharge of the Bond unless the Bond is replaced in full by any
remaining appellant(s).  Any such replacement bond will then be
deemed to constitute the Bond.

In the event the Sale transaction with B and B Grove Properties
does not close as required by the Purchase Agreement and the Order,
and the Trustee proceeds with a closing with each of the Back-Up
Bidders as a result, then upon the request of either Back-Up Bidder
or the Trustee, the Court will entertain any supplemental orders
confirming such sales to the Back-Up Bidders and making any
findings or conclusions in connection therewith based on the record
before the Court.

NORTH COUNTRY: Rabbe Inc. Buying Assets for $8K
-----------------------------------------------
North Country Seed, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Minnesota to authorize the sale of assets to Rabbe,
Inc. for an aggregate price of $8,000.

A hearing on the Motion is set for Nov. 22, 2017 at 10:30 a.m.
Objection deadline is Nov. 17, 2017.

On the Petition Date, the Debtor was indebted to Farmers State Bank
of Trimont ("FSB") under two separate notes, one for an operating
line with a balance of $1,271,751 ("Operating Line") and one for a
real estate loan of $184,612 ("Real Estate Loan").  The Operating
Line was secured by all of the personal property of the Debtor.
The Real Estate Loan was secured by the Debtor's real property.

On Aug.31, 2016, the Debtor and FSB participated in a mediation
with Judge Fisher as mediator and a settlement was reached.  The
settlement required that (i) FSB bring a motion for relief from
stay ("Lift Stay Motion"), that the Debtor would not oppose; and
(ii) that the Debtor brings a motion to approve a sale of assets to
FSB ("Sale Motion") that FSB would support.  The settlement
required that both motions be granted as a condition of the
settlement.  

On Nov. 2, 2016, the Court entered an order granting Sale Motion
and on Nov. 3, 2016, the Court entered an order granting the Lift
Stay Motion.  The effect of these two orders was that the Debtor
was authorized to sell all of its assets to FSB, excepting the
"Excluded Assets" as the term is used in the two orders.

Following the transaction with FSB, the Debtor ceased conducting
business and continued in Chapter 11 to complete the litigation of
a preference case, North Country Seed, LLC v. FCA Co-Op ("FCA
Adversary").  The FCA Adversary was subsequently settled and the
settlement approved by the Court on June 28, 2017.  The settlement
payment went toward paying in part the allowed administrative claim
of the Debtor's counsel.

The Excluded Assets included both property owned by NCS and
property owned by Joel and Kirsten Rabbe individually.  The
personally owned property was included in the definition of
Excluded Assets only to clarify that FSB did not claim a security
interest in these personally owned assets, not to indicate
ownership by the Debtor.  The personally owned assets are the Texas
Longhorns, miscellaneous personal affects, pictures and such which
are now in the possession of the Rabbes.

The Excluded Assets owned by the Debtor are (i) 100% of the
membership units in Galena Genetics, LLC, a Minnesota limited
liability company ("Galena Membership Units"), (ii) any seed or
grain inventory, (iii) trademarks, (iv) all books and records,
including genetic books and records, (v) software licenses,
computers with software and licenses Upon the closing of the sale,
FSB was required to release its security interests in the Excluded
Assets.

As of the date of the Motion, the Debtor owns no seed or grain
inventory and owns only the "Galena Membership Units," trademarks,
books and records, including genetic books and records, and
software licenses, computers with software and licenses which
remaining assets the Debtor is seeking authority to sell under the
Motion in addition the Debtor is seeking to sell ("Assets").  More
specifically, the Assets to be sold are: (i) Galena Membership
Units; (ii) trademarks; (iii) books and records, including genetic
books and records; and (iv) software licenses, the computers with
software and licenses.

The Debtor has now obtained an offer to purchase the Assets free
and clear of liens and interests, from the Purchaser, a related
non-debtor entity (and a creditor holding an unsecured claim
against the Debtor in the amount of $4,264) for an aggregate price
of $8,000 and a release of its claim.  The Debtor believes that the
aggregate value of the Assets is less than the Purchase Price.  The
Debtor has no funds with which to commission an appraisal of the
Assets, but based on other evidence, the Debtor believes that the
value of the Assets does not exceed the $8,000 offer received from
the Purchaser.

A copy of the list of the Assets to be sold attached to the Motion
is available for free at:

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/North_Country_56_Sales.pdf

Based on the bankruptcy schedules, a recent UCC search and a review
of the filed claims, the Debtor is not aware of any security
interests or liens in the Excluded Assets other than the security
interest of FSB which has been or is required to be released.

If necessary and appropriate at any evidentiary hearing, the Movant
designates Joel Rabbe as a potential witness.  The Movant also
cross-designates any witnesses designated by any party opposing the
Motion.

NRG ENERGY: S&P Affirms 'BB-' Issuer Credit Rating, Outlook Stable
------------------------------------------------------------------
While merchant generator NRG Energy Inc., like others in its
industries, faces considerable market headwinds, it is in the midst
of a business transformation that will likely shore up its
finances.

At the same time, the recent bankruptcy of GenOn Energy Inc., a
ring-fenced subsidiary, has not adversely affected the company.

S&P Global Ratings said it affirmed its 'BB-' issuer credit rating
on NRG Energy Inc. The outlook is stable. S&P also affirmed all its
issue-level ratings on the company.

S&P said, "The affirmation stems from our expectation that recent
events will not materially weaken credit quality and that the
ongoing transformation plan will aid in efforts to deleverage over
the next two or three years, resulting in gross debt to EBITDA
approaching 3.75x on an adjusted, deconsolidated basis by the
middle of 2019.

"The recent prepackaged bankruptcy of GenOn Energy does not have a
material impact on NRG Energy from a credit perspective, in our
opinion. We had previously not consolidated GenOn's substantial
debt, nor had we relied on cash flows from ring-fenced GenOn in
light of its struggles, aside from a shared service payment
assumption; our expectation had been that NRG would not provide
material support to GenOn in the case of financial duress, and it
has not throughout the bankruptcy proceedings. The filing also
brings closure to certain questions surrounding shared services and
the requirement for compensation from NRG Energy. While we
anticipate that GenOn will emerge from bankruptcy in the latter
part of 2017 or early 2018, it will do so independently of NRG
Energy. We also expect that GenOn's subsidiaries, NRG REMA LLC and
GenOn Mid-Atlantic LLC, will be legally separate from NRG Energy
Inc. going forward.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that NRG Energy Inc.'s
corporate level adjusted FFO to recourse debt will be about 15%,
and adjusted recourse debt to EBITDA will be below 4.5x over the
forecast period as a result of cost-cutting measures. Among other
factors, this is contingent on our current commodity price
assumptions, which should enable the company to generate free cash
flow to fund not only capital spending but also the planned
deleveraging through 2019. We believe the company is more sensitive
to a downturn in its wholesale power business than some peers
because of its larger coal-fired baseload fleet. We also believe
that these figures are supported by upcoming cost-cutting and asset
sale efforts.

"Downside risks are more pronounced now because of the continuation
of the depressed power price environment that could become
heightened if demand growth declines or if renewable proliferation
further pressures its coal-fired fleet. We will lower the ratings
on NRG if its corporate level FFO-to-debt measures decline
consistently below 14% or debt to EBITDA increases above 5x
consistently. In addition, failure to realize the goals of the
business transformation plan could contribute to weaker ratings.

"We do not expect to upgrade NRG in the short term because we do
not expect the company's corporate-level cash flow to debt to
improve above 16% through 2017. An upgrade would require FFO to
debt to improve to about 18% consistently, as well as demonstrated
execution of its business transformation plan; attaining debt to
EBITDA beneath 4x consistently, in keeping with the issuer's
target, could contribute to improved ratings."

PALISADES PARK: Hyun Woo Buying Palisades Park Property for $8M
---------------------------------------------------------------
Palisades Park Plaza, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of New Jersey to authorize the sale of real property
commonly known as 500 Tenth Street, Palisades Park, New Jersey
("Premises") to Hyun Woo Holding, LLC for $8,000,000, subject to
higher or better offers.

A hearing on the Motion is set for November 2017 at 10:00 a.m.
Objections, if any, must be files no later than seven days prior to
the return date of the Motion.

Chang Don Kim, a Managing Member of the Debtor, certifies that
pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 541, the commencement of the
Bankruptcy Case created an estate which includes all interests of
the Debtor in the Premises.  On the Petition Date, Debtor was and
is the record owners of the Premises.

The Premises are subject to a mortgage held by Boiling Spring
Savings Bank on which there is due approximately $6,400,000.  There
is approximately $100,000 owed to unsecured creditors of the
estate.  There are administrative claims incurred dining the
Chapter 11 of approximately $100,000.

The Debtor during the Chapter 11 and continuing to the present has
been making interest payments of approximately $19,000 per month to
Boiling Springs.  It has paid all real estate taxes and insurance
since the bankruptcy filing.  The debt to Boiling Spring Savings
Bank has not increased since the filing.

The Debtor, subject to Bankruptcy Court approval, has entered into
the Contract for the sale of its real property for the sum of
$8,000,000 with the Buyer.  The principal is the son of the
principal of the Debtor.  The principal of the Buyer is also a
tenant of the Debtor.  The Premises will be sold free and clear of
all liens, encumbrances, claims and interests, with all such liens,
encumbrances, claims and interests attaching to the sale proceeds.

The Buyer will give a non-refundable deposit of $250,000, $120,000
is being delivered today to the trust account of John W. Sywilok,
LLC and $130,000 to be delivered within 10 days to the trust
account of John W. Sywilok.  The Buyer has submitted his mortgage
application to his lender in the amount of $6,800,000 and has paid
the application fee of $5,000.  He has represented that he has
sufficient funds to close title.  The Closing in the contract has
been scheduled for Dec. 15, 2017.

The Debtor had retained an Appraiser pursuant the Order of the
Court during the Chapter 11 and the appraisal indicated that the
property had a value of $6,800,000.  The Buyer has obtained an
appraisal indicating that the property has a value of $8,200,000.

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

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/Palisades_Park_113_Sales.pdf

The sale would be beneficial to Boiling Springs in that its
mortgage will be paid in full, unsecured creditors whose claims
will be paid in full, administrative claimants whose claims will be
paid in full, and the equity holder who desires that the sale take
place.

PARAMOUNT BUILDING: Wants to Use Cash Collateral Through Nov. 30
----------------------------------------------------------------
Paramount Building Solutions, LLC, and its debtor-affiliates ask
the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona for
permission to use cash collateral of DW Jade, LLC, through Nov. 30,
2017.

The Debtors say that without the continued use of cash collateral,
the Debtors will be forced to cease operations.  The Debtors will
have no alternative but to contemplate ceasing operations.

The Debtors had acknowledged and agreed the Lender has a perfected
interest in the Debtors' cash collateral pursuant to the
prepetition loan documents to secure the prepetition obligations.
The Debtors further noted an agreement between the parties on the
Debtors' use of cash collateral contingent upon the relief sought
in the DIP motion.  On Sept. 15, 2017, the Debtors filed an
emergency motion for interim and final court order authorizing the
Debtors to obtain secured post-petition financing on a super
priority basis pursuant to Sections 363, 364, and 507(b), and other
relief.

PAUL SHEPHERD: RND Buying Los Angeles Property for $8.5M
--------------------------------------------------------
Paul Stuart Shepherd and Gigi Renee Shepherd ask the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California to
authorize (a) the bidding procedures; (b) the rejection of the
Residential Purchase Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions with
Nicolas Keros in connection with the sale of two contiguous parcels
of real property: (i) 2460 Sunset Plaza Drive, Los Angeles,
California, APN 5563-031-011 ("Upper Lot"); and (ii) 2375 Sunset
Plaza Drive, Los Angeles, California, APN 5563-031-012 ("Lower
Lot") for $7.9 million; (c) their Residential Purchase Agreement
and Joint Escrow Instructions with RND Sunset Associates, LLC or
its designee in connection with the sale of the Property for $8.5
million, subject to overbid.

On July 7, 2017, the Debtors filed their Schedules of Assets and
Liabilities.  As set forth in the Schedules, as of the Petition
Date, (i) the Debtors had approximately $59,000 in cash and
non-retirement savings, and $6,200 in expected tax refunds for a
total of approximately $65,200 in liquid assets and no other
material liquid assets, which amount has decreased since the
Petition Date as cash and savings have been used to pay the Debtors
ordinary living expenses since the Debtors only have nominal
monthly income, and which liquid assets currently total
approximately $51,484; and (ii) excluding Keros' disputed claim,
the Debtors had $110,000 in secured claims and $1,297,424 in
general unsecured claims for a total of approximately $1,407,424 in
claims.

The Debtors live on the Property.  The Upper Lot is approximately
1.5 acre lot on which is located the Debtors' principal residence,
and the Lower Lot is an adjacent approximately 1 acre lot of
undeveloped land.  The Property was inherited by the Debtors from
Mrs. Shepherd's aunt, who purchased the Property in 1954 and tended
after the Property until her passing in 2004, when title to the
Property was transferred to the Debtors.  The Debtors believe the
Property has a collective fair market value of between
approximately $8.5 and $10 million (or more).

As can be seen from the Title Report, the Upper Lot is encumbered
by a first priority deed of trust ("Hargitay DOT") in favor of
Ellen Hargitay securing a loan to the Debtors from Hargitay in the
principal amount of $109,745 "Secured Hargitay Loan").  The
proceeds from the Secured Hargitay Loan and an additional unsecured
loan from Hargitay in the amount of $43,255 were used by the
Debtors to fund certain legal expenses arising from disputes by and
between, among others, the Debtors, Keros, real estate broker
Douglas Elliman, and Douglas Elliman real estate agent Josh Altman
regarding a purported Keros Purchase Agreement pertaining to a
prior potential sale of the Property to Keros that never
consummated.  As the Debtors contend that the purported Keros
Purchase Agreement is either legally unenforceable or was validly
terminated prepetition and was also obtained through, among other
things, undue influence, fraud, and misrepresentation.

As can be seen from the Title Report, the Property is also
encumbered by a Lis Pendens recorded by Keros in connection with
his State Court Action seeking specific performance of the Keros
Purchase Agreement.  After excepting Items 1-27 set forth in the
Title Report and any alleged rights under that certain Mobilization
Agreement between the Debtors and James Wecker II ("Excepted
Items"), which the Debtors are not seeking to sell free and clear
of, the only remaining liens, claims, encumbrances, and interests
recorded against the Property are the Hargitay DOT and Keros'
alleged rights under the Keros Purchase Agreement and the related
Keros Lis Pendens.

There are placeholder liens for real property taxes in the Title
Report, but the Title Report indicates that such taxes are paid
current.  The Debtors are not seeking to sell free and clear of the
liens securing real property taxes, which are included in the
Excepted Items.  However, pursuant to the RND Purchase Agreement
and as requested in the Motion, the Debtors propose to pay from the
proceeds of the sale of the Property any pre-closing real property
taxes for the Property allocated to the Debtors.

In addition to the Hargitay DOT and Keros' alleged rights under the
Keros Purchase Agreement and the related Keros Lis Pendens, the
Debtors are also seeking to sell the Property free and clear of all
other liens, claims, encumbrances, and interests (other than the
Excepted Items), including, but not limited to, Licenses allowing
the limited use of the Property granted by the Debtors in favor of
John Powell, David Leon, Thomas Nickel, Rozae Nichols, and Alan
Diamond "License Parties"), which Licenses by their terms will
automatically terminate upon the close of the sale of the
Property.

In 2013, Concerned Residents Sunset Plaza Drive, John Powell, David
Leon, Thomas Nickel, Rozae Nichols and Alan Diamond, as plaintiffs,
filed an action against the Debtors, Hargitay, Daniel Franklin, and
Susanne Konigsberg, as defendants, regarding claims for
prescriptive easement, implied dedication, and declaratory relief
related to, among other things, the Property ("Unrelated Easement
Action").  In the Unrelated Easement Action, the plaintiffs argued
that they were entitled to use a private road that was owned by the
defendants.  The Debtors and the other defendants ultimately
successfully defended against the Unrelated Easement Action,
unfortunately at significant cost and expense.

While the Debtors live very modestly, their ordinary monthly living
expenses far exceed their monthly income.  In total, during the
years leading up to their bankruptcy filing, they had to borrow
more than $1,200,000 in order to fund their negative cash flow,
including paying the fees and costs associated with the Unrelated
Easement Action.

The Debtors could not indefinitely operate on a negative cash flow
basis.  To pay off their debt and fund their future living
expenses, they made the very difficult emotional decision to sell
their beloved Property.  

In order to maximize the value of the Property, in the fall of
2016, Mr. Shepherd began to have informal discussions with the
Debtors' then neighbor, Judy Nagler regarding the possibility of
Nagler granting an ingress/egress easement and a sewer easement
("Proposed Easements") over her property in favor of the Debtors,
which the Debtors believed would benefit the Debtors and the value
of their Property, in exchange for a one-time fee.  Nagler advised
Mr. Shepherd that this was unacceptable to her and that this issue,
as well as the foregoing issues regarding the draft agreements
regarding the Proposed Easements and the price to be paid, would
have to be resolved before she would be amenable to granting the
Proposed Easements.

On the evening of March 5, 2017, the Debtors and Keros met
concerning a potential sale of the Property by the Debtors to
Keros.  The Debtors executed the proposed Keros Purchase Agreement.
However, the process resulting in the Debtors' execution of the
proposed Keros Purchase Agreement was the result of fraud,
misrepresentation and undue influence.  Soon after executing the
Keros Purchase Agreement, issues and disputes arose among the
Debtors, Keros, and Nagler regarding the Proposed Easements.

The Keros Purchase Agreement was never valid and enforceable or,
alternatively, was validly terminated prior to the Petition Date
pursuant to the NBP and 4/20/17 Email to Keros advising him that
the Keros Purchase Agreement was cancelled and terminated due to
Keros' failure to perform.  Because Keros initiated the State Court
Action treating the Keros Purchase Agreement as still in effect by
seeking, inter alia, specific performance of the Keros Purchase
Agreement, the Keros Purchase Agreement is an executory contract
and subject to rejection.

The Debtors ask the Court to approve the rejection of the Keros
Purchase Agreement to the extent it is valid and enforceable.  They
anticipate that Keros will oppose and make arguments against
rejection.  The rejection of the Keros Purchase Agreement will
eliminate any purported specific performance rights asserted by
Keros and limit Keros' remedies to a lien on the Property for any
portion of the purchase price paid (which is $0) and (to the extent
he prevails on any claims) an unsecured claim for rejection
damages.  The rejection will facilitate a sale of their Property,
which will benefit general unsecured creditors, because the sale of
the Property is the only way that the Debtors will be able to
generate funds necessary to fund a plan and pay nearly $1.3 million
in general unsecured claims (exclusive of any alleged Keros claim)
asserted against them.

In addition to the foregoing issues and disputes between the
Debtors and the Nagler Defendants, on one hand, and Keros, on the
other hand, after the Keros Purchase Agreement and Agency Agreement
were executed, issues and disputes arose between the Debtors, on
one hand, and Douglas Elliman/Altman, on the other hand.

On June 20, 2017, as required by the Commission Agreement executed
in connection with the Keros Purchase Agreement, the Debtors
engaged in a mediation of their claims against Douglas
Elliman/Altman.  The mediation did not result in a settlement of
the Debtors'  claims against Douglas Elliman/Altman ("Broker
Claims").  Barring a settlement with Douglas Elliman/Altman, the
Debtors intend to initiate an action ("Broker Action") against
Douglas Elliman/Altman to recover damages on the Broker Claims.

In furtherance of their efforts to sell the Property and utilizing
the proceeds thereof to pay all allowed claims in full, soon after
the Petition Date, on July 26, 2017, the Debtors filed their
application to employ Hilton & Hyland ("H&H") as their real estate
broker in connection with the marketing and sale of the Property,
which the Court approved on Aug. 18, 2017.

In summary, the provisions of the H&H Employment Application (and
the listing Residential Listing Agreement (Exclusive Authorization
and Right to Sell)), approved by the Court's order provide for a
commission between 0% to 5% to be paid to H&H (to be shared with
the buyer's broker under certain circumstances) as follows: (i) 0%
if the Buyer purchases the Property at the Purchase Price with no
Overbid; (ii) 2.5% if the Buyer is the successful Overbidder at an
Auction and closes the sale; (iii) 4% on any other sale where
Denise Moreno or Gordon MacGeachy of H&H, or both of them, also
represent the Overbidder (other than the Buyer); and (iv) 5% on any
other sale where there is an Overbidder and neither Denise Moreno
nor Gordon MacGeachy of H&H represent the Overbidder.

From and after Oct. 15, 2017, through the date of the Auction, H&H
has continued, and will continue, to market the Property for sale
consistent with H&H's prior efforts to market the Property.  In
addition, once an Auction date is set and the Overbid Procedures
and Overbid/Auction Notice is approved, it will send the
Overbid/Auction Notice to the agents of all parties that have
expressed interest in the Property and update the MLS listing to
promote the Auction.

On March 10, 2017, Robert Flaxman, who manages, owns, and/or
controls the Buyer, expressed interest in purchasing the Property.
The terms of the proposed sale and overbid procedures that the
Debtors and the Buyer ultimately agreed to are set forth in the
Residential Purchase Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions and
related agreements ("RND Purchase Agreement").

The salient terms of the Agreement are:

     a. Purchased Asset: The Property

Court denies the Motion for any reason other than the Buyer's
breach, at the conclusion of the hearing on the Motion, the
$250,000 Initial Deposit will be immediately refunded to the Buyer.
In the event the Buyer breaches the RND Purchase Agreement, the
Buyer will forfeit the Initial Deposit to the Debtors' estate as
liquidated damages.  If the Court grants the Motion, then within
three Business days following the entry of the Sale Order, the
Buyer will deposit an additional $600,000 into the segregated trust
account at LNBYB (for a total deposit of $850,000).

     e. Break-Up Fee: $255,000 (3% of the Purchase Price)

paid to H&H

     h. Condition of Asset/Property: "As-is" and "Where is"

A copy of the Agreements and the Bidding Procedures attached to the
Motion is available for free at:

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/Paul_Shepherd_99_Sales.pdf

The Debtors ask authority to pay from the proceeds of the sale of
the Property (i) any pre-closing real property taxes for the
Property allocated to the Debtors, which are secured by the
Property; (ii) any commission owed to the Debtors' broker, H&H, and
any cooperating broker, pursuant to the H&H Employment Application
(as amended) and the order of the Court approving the same; (iii)
the secured claim of Hargitay in the approximate amount of $110,000
secured by the Hargitay DOT; (iv) $100,000 to the Debtors,
representing exempt proceeds from the sale of the Property; and (v)
customary escrow closing fees and charges.

The Debtors ask that the Court waives the stay under FRBP 6004(h)
and that the Sale Order and any additional order required after any
Auction to confirm the Buyer or a successful Overbidder as the
winning bidder be effective immediately upon entry.

PEORIA REGIONAL: U.S. Trustee Unable to Appoint Committee
---------------------------------------------------------
An official committee of unsecured creditors has not yet been
appointed in the Chapter 11 case of Peoria Regional Medical Center,
LLC, as of Oct. 31, according to a court docket.

Headquartered in Mesa, Arizona, Peoria Regional Medical Center, LLC
aka Peoria Hospital LLC owns an unfinished medical center located
at 26320 Lake Pleasant Parkway, Peoria, Arizona.  The medical
center was intended to be the city's first full-service general
acute-care hospital.  The Peoria Building Board of Appeals had
ordered the demolition of the structure indicating that the
structure was an unattractive nuisance and a hazardous building.

The Debtor filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr. D.
Ariz. Case No. 17-11742) on Oct. 4, 2017, estimating its assets at
up to $50,000 and its liabilities at between $1 million and $10
million.  The petition was signed by Timothy A. Johns, manager.

Judge Scott H. Gan presides over the case.

Heather Ann Macre, Esq., at Aiken Schenk Hawkins & Ricciardi P.C.,
serves as the Debtor's bankruptcy counsel.

the time of the filing, the Debtor disclosed that it had estimated
assets of less than $50,000 and liabilities of less than $500,000.


POST GREEN FELL: Wants To Use Cash to Fund Retainer for Counsel
---------------------------------------------------------------
Post Green Fell LLC, seeks authority from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Northern District of California to use cash collateral in
the form of accumulated rents to fund a post-petition retainer for
substitute counsel.

A hearing on the Debtor's request is scheduled for Nov. 2, 2017, at
11:00 a.m.

From and after July 2017, Post Green Fell has collected $36,000 per
month in rents for its properties from a related entity, ACI.  The
Debtor's expenditures to date have been de minimis, consisting of
less than $1,000 for signage and bank charges.

The Debtor's current cash on hand is approximately $140,000, and
after receipt of the November rents will be approximately $175,000.


The Debtor acknowledges that the Rents constitute the cash
collateral of the holders of deeds of trust encumbering the four
properties at 2360 Post Street, 1776 Green Street and
1213 Fell Street.  It is less clear that they constitute cash
collateral for the holder of a judgment lien or a disputed nominee
tax lien.

At the commencement of the case, the Debtor sought and obtained a
court order authorizing it to employ St. James Law, P.C., as its
Chapter 11 counsel.  On Oct. 10, 2017, St. James Law filed its
motion to withdraw as counsel in the case and in an associated
adversary proceeding.

At a hearing conducted on Oct. 13, 2017, the Court considered and
discussed the motion to withdraw, orally setting it for hearing on
Nov. 2, 2017, at 11:00 a.m.  The Court advised that it would grant
the motion to withdraw at the November Hearing, but that, since
entities can prosecute Chapter 11 cases only through counsel, if
the Debtor had not engaged substitute counsel by the November
Hearing, the Court was highly likely at that hearing to appoint a
trustee to administer the Debtor's estate.

The Debtor says it has been diligently engaged in efforts to retain
substitute counsel.  The Debtor has concluded that any capable
substitute counsel it seeks to engage will require a material
post-petition retainer as a condition of accepting employment.  The
Rents constitute the Debtor's only liquid assets and potential
source of funding for a post-petition retainer.  Through an
accompanying motion, the Debtor seeks authorization to pay all or a
portion of the Rents as a post-petition retainer to substitute
counsel, provided the Court authorizes the employment of substitute
counsel.  

Two forms of adequate protection are offered.  First, the holders
of the mortgages and the judgment lien enjoy a very substantial
equity cushion, such that their interests are adequately protected
without regard to the disposition of the Rents.  Each property
enjoys an equity cushion of more than $1.5 million, affording ample
adequate protection.  Second, all creditors and parties in interest
will benefit from an orderly disposition or reorganization of the
Debtor's estate, but that can be accomplished only if substitute
counsel is engaged.  The use of cash collateral to engage
substitute counsel itself provides adequate protection to all
parties.

QSL PORTAGE: Wants to Continue Using Cash Until April 1, 2018
-------------------------------------------------------------
QSL Portage, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of Indiana for permission to use cash collateral until
April 1, 2018.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on July 7, 2017, the
Court authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral of alleged
secured creditors, American Express Bank, FSB, and US Foods, Inc.,
on an interim basis and after a July 28, 2017 final hearing on an
extended basis.

Upon review of IRS' objection to the cash collateral motion and
further investigation of IRS' proof of claim and related lien
notices, the Debtor determined that IRS has a priority secured
claim in front of the Creditors.  Accordingly, the Debtor modified
the cash collateral order to provide adequate protection to IRS (as
well as the Creditors) and obtained IRS' consent to the use of cash
collateral in exchange for certain forms of adequate protection.

The cash collateral order currently provides for the Debtor's use
of cash collateral in accordance with the Budget attached thereto
through the week of Nov. 20, 2017.  The Debtor requires the
continued use of cash collateral in order to continue its
operations and to maintain and preserve the value of its property
pending a sale or the confirmation of a chapter 11 plan.  The
Debtor's efforts in this regard have been delayed pending
resolution of the lawsuit against QSL Franchise Systems.  Until
that litigation is resolved, the Debtor is not in a good position
to market its assets for sale or formulate a plan of
reorganization.

The proposed Extension Budget provides for the payment of ongoing
expenses incurred in the ordinary course of the Debtor's business
through April 1, 2018.  These expenses include, without limitation,
inventory costs, payroll, taxes, rent (including catch-up payments
to bring rent current by Nov. 6), and insurance.  The proposed
Extension Budget also provides for professional fee payments to
Debtor's counsel and the United States Trustee for statutory
quarterly fees.

The Debtor's proposed use of cash collateral as described in the
proposed Extension Order and Budget is designed to preserve the
value of the Debtor's property and thereby adequately protect the
value of the IRS' and the Creditors' interests in the Debtor's
property as of the Petition Date, and the relief requested in this
motion is otherwise appropriate under the circumstances.

                        About QSL Portage

QSL Portage operates the Quaker Steak & Lube restaurant at 6245
Ameriplex Dr., Portage, Indiana, since 2006.  The Debtor filed a
Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. N.D. Ind. Case No. 17-21799) on June
26, 2017.  Larry J. Briski, managing member, signed the petition.
At the time of filing, the Debtor estimated less than $500,000 in
assets and $1 million to $10 million in liabilities.

Gordon E. Gouveia II, Esq., at Shaw Fishman Glantz & Towbin LLC,
serves as the Debtor's legal counsel.

The case is assigned to Judge James R. Ahler.

No request has been made for the appointment of a trustee or
examiner, and no official committee of unsecured creditors has been
appointed by the Office of the United States Trustee.


RADIATE HOLDCO: S&P Affirms 'B' CCR Amid WaveDivision Acquisition
-----------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. cable provider Radiate Holdco LLC plans to finance the $2.365
billion acquisition of WaveDivision Holdings LLC (Wave) with about
$1.725 billion in new debt along with additional sponsor equity,
resulting in pro forma leverage of about 7x.

S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B' corporate credit rating on San
Marcos, Texas-based Radiate Holdco LLC. The outlook is stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we affirmed our 'B' issue-level rating
on the company's secured credit facility, which includes the
proposed $1.275 billion incremental term loan and $150 million
incremental revolver. The '3' recovery rating indicates our
expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 55%)
recovery in the event of a payment default. We also affirmed the
'CCC+' issue-level rating on the company's unsecured debt with a
'6' recovery rating indicating expectations for negligible (0%-10%;
rounded estimate: 0%) recovery.

"The affirmation reflects our view that the acquisition of Wave is
a modest positive providing the company with greater scale,
diversifying the company's national footprint, adding fiber
capabilities to serve larger business customers, and significantly
improving Radiate's profit margins. A significant increase in debt,
resulting in pro forma leverage slightly above 7x from about 6x
prior to the acquisition, offsets these factors. Still, we believe
favorable growth prospects enabled by increasing broadband
penetration, pricing increases associated with demand for faster
internet, and good revenue visibility provided by a
subscription-based customer base should reduce this metric to
around 6.5x by the end of 2018.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation for modest improvement
in the company's credit measures over the next year mainly because
of earnings growth, with debt to EBITDA in the mid-6x area by the
end of 2018. However, we believe that re-leveraging is likely at
some point given the aggressive financial policy employed by
Radiate's private-equity owners, TPG Capital."

A downgrade could result from an unanticipated deterioration in
operational performance such that leverage rises above 7.5x without
a reasonable near-term path to improvement. This would most likely
occur because of increased competition from incumbent cable
operators that lead to heightened video subscriber losses with no
offsetting gains in HSD and commercial customers. A more aggressive
financial policy could also result in a downgrade.

Although unlikely, S&P could raise the rating if the company's
private equity owners clearly articulate a credible, revised
financial policy for leverage to remain below 5.5x over the longer
term.



REBUILTCARS CORP: Allowed to Continue Using AFC Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Timothy A. Barnes of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Illinois has entered a seventh interim order
authorizing Rebuiltcars Corporation to use cash collateral
belonging to Automobile Financing Corporation ("AFC") on an interim
basis.

The Court has been advised that the Debtor and AFC have agreed to
interim terms resolving AFC's objection to the Debtor's use of cash
collateral in which AFC asserts an interest.

The Court will convene on Nov. 29, 2017 at 10:30 a.m., to consider
the Debtor's further use of cash collateral.

The Debtor may use cash collateral solely for its postpetition
necessary and reasonable operating expenses.  The approved cash
collateral budget provides total monthly expenses of $35,501.

As adequate protection, the Debtor will provide AFC with adequate
protection as follows:

     (1) The Debtor may sell AFC Secured Vehicle for an amount
sufficient to pay AFC the full amount owing on that vehicle as of
the date of sale as indicated in the records of AFC ("Payoff
Amount"). Absent written permission from AFC, the Debtor may not
sell such vehicle for less than the Payoff Amount, and the Debtor
may not dispose of any AFC Secured Vehicle through trade;

     (2) Upon the sale of an AFC Secured Vehicle, the Payoff Amount

RESIC ENTERPRISES: S&P Assigns 'B-' CCR, Outlook Positive
---------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'B-' corporate credit rating to
RESIC Enterprises LLC. (Lyons Magnus). The outlook is positive.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned a 'B-' issue-level rating
and '3' recovery rating to the company's proposed $220 million
first-lien facilities, consisting of a $190 million first-line term
loan maturing in 2024 and $30 million cash flow revolver maturing
in 2022. The '3' recovery rating indicates our expectation for a
meaningful recovery (50%-70%; rounded estimate 60%) in the event of
payment default. Upon closing of the transaction, we estimate the
company will have roughly $253 million of funded debt
outstanding."

All ratings are based on preliminary terms and are subject to
review of final documentation.

Paine Schwartz Partners has reached an agreement to acquire a
majority ownership in Lyons Magnus Inc., a Fresno, Calif.-based
developer, manufacturer, and marketer of fruit and flavor
products.

The 'B-' ratings on Lyons Magnus reflect the company's high pro
forma leverage, likely-to-grow free cash flows, and narrow niche
presence in beverage supplements, primarily to foodservice. The
acquisition of Lyons Magnus will be funded in part with about $253
million in debt ($193 million of it in first-lien term and revolver
debt and the remainder in second-lien term debt). S&P estimates pro
forma debt to EBITDA to be more than 6x, and project it will
improve by more than a turn by year-end 2019 as the company
increases its product portfolio and grows volumes from recent
investment in additional production. In addition, margins should
improve as identified efficiencies initiatives are implemented.
Still, free cash flows will be modest at first as the company
continues to invest in growth, and the benefit of the company's
initiative's will take a few quarters to materialize.

The positive outlook reflects the potential for an upgrade if the
company can continue to show traction in sales, increase margins,
and generate stronger cash flow. This assumes the company is
successful in gaining volume growth from existing clients, turning
the capital investments in new product lines into sales, and
executing its cost saving strategies.

S&P said, "We could upgrade the company if it is able to continue
to grow revenues and improve margins, resulting in free operating
cash flow (FOCF) of approaching $10 million and debt to EBITDA
declining below 6x. This could occur if the company is able to see
volume growth from their existing clients, receive new orders for
the new product lines, and realize the cost savings as planned.

"We could revise the outlook to stable if the company is unable to
drive its planned growth and improve margins, resulting in FOCF
that remains at low-single-digit levels. We believe this could
occur if the company loses one of its major clients, negotiates a
lower margin during contract renewals, or sees weaker-than-expected
demand for its new product lines."

SAMUEL E. WYLY: Proposes a Private Sale of MC LLC's Dallas Property
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Samuel Evans Wyly asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of Texas to authorize the private sale of Mi Casa, LLC
("MC LLC")'s real property located at 4945 Crooked Lane, Dallas,
Texas free and clear of interests.

The Debtor asks an expedited hearing of the Motion in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the Court's Order Granting Complex
Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Case Treatment.  Accordingly, the Debtor has
filed, contemporaneously with the filing of the Motion, his Motion
for Expedited Hearing, which asks that objections to the Motion be
filed no later than 24 hours prior to the hearing and asks that the
Motion be heard at a hearing set for the week of Oct. 30, 2017 at a
time convenient for the Court.  The Debtor will file a notice of
hearing after the Court rules on the Motion for Expedited Hearing.

Mi Casa (IOM) Ltd., a subsidiary of the Bessie Trust, is the 99%
grantor of Mi Casa Management Trust.  Laurie Wyly Matthews holds
the remaining 1% interest as a co-grantor of MC Management Trust.
The MC Management Trust wholly owns MC LLC, which wholly owns the
Home.  MC LLC does not own any other property besides the Home.

Prior to the Petition Date, the Amended and Restated Laurie L. Wyly
Revocable Trust claims to have provided a loan, over time, to MC
LLC in an amount totaling $654,997, plus $130,194 in accrual of
interest from November 2002 through October 2017, in order to pay
for certain construction costs and property taxes owed on the Home
as they became due.

The MC Management Trust is administered by its trustee, Laurie Wyly
Matthews ("MC Trustee").  The MC Trustee, the Debtor, and the
holders of the MC Management Trust interests support the sale of
the Home.  Upon sale of the Home, the MC Trustee has confirmed that
the proceeds of the sale and any additional assets of MC LLC and/or
the MC Management Trust will be distributed as set forth and
pursuant to further orders of the Court.

The trustee for the Bessie Trust, First Names Trust Company (Isle
of Man) Ltd., has communicated its intention to direct the MC
Trustee to transfer that portion of the Home sale proceeds net of
real estate commissions, expenses of sale, repair and make-ready
costs, and other monthly expenses associated with the Home ("Net
Proceeds") due to Mi Casa (IOM) (99%) to the Segregated Account, as
a distribution to the Debtor to be used as a payment on claims of
the estate's creditors.

The Net Proceeds will be deposited into the Segregated Account,
subject to the rights and claims of Laurie Wyly Matthews, the
Internal Revenue Service, and all other creditors of the estate.
For the avoidance of doubt, the amounts on deposit in the
Segregated Account will not be used to pay monthly estate expenses.
The Segregated Account is solely for the deposit of the net
proceeds of any sale of purported estate property while the parties
continue settlement discussions, unless ordered otherwise by the
Court.

To initiate the sale process, the MC Trustee and the Debtor are
prepared, subject to the Court's approval, to sign and enter into a
listing agreement ("Brokerage Contract") with Allie Beth Allman &
Associates ("ABA"), a real estate brokerage firm located in Dallas,
Texas.  Additionally, the Debtor and the MC Trustee, as
representative of MC Management Trust, are willing to sign and
execute any documents reasonably necessary to effectuate a final
sale of the Home and transfer proper title to the Buyer.

ABA has recommended listing the Home at $2,300,000 based on
consideration of the current market, the Home's appraisal value,
and the preparatory costs necessary for sale.  The Brokerage
Contract provides for a discounted sales commission payable from
the sale proceeds upon closing of the sale.  Additionally, ABA
recommends that certain make-ready and staging expenditures be made
in order to sell the Home at the highest possible price.

The Debtor, Department of Justice, and ABA have discussed potential
customary and necessary make-ready and staging costs, including,
but not limited to, (i) repairs, painting, and enhanced
landscaping, and (ii) furniture replacement and/or staging
("Make-Ready Costs").  The Debtor also asks authority for Allie
Beth Allman to have all utilities placed in her name (individually
and independently from ABA) while the Home is listed for sale.

Allie Beth Allman has agreed to personally advance the Make-Ready
Costs and any funds necessary for any monthly utilities (e.g.,
electricity, water, gas), and other monthly recurring services
(e.g., lawn services, pool services) ("Monthly Costs"), necessary
to maintain the Home prior to its sale, with such Make-Ready Costs
and Monthly Costs to be repaid to Allie Beth Allman out of the sale
proceeds.  Save and except for the Brokerage Commission, the
Make-Ready Costs, and the Monthly Costs, which will be paid solely
from sale proceeds, the Debtor does not, and will not, owe Allie
Beth Allman or ABA any other fees or expenses pursuant to sale of
the Home.

As a result of negotiations with Allie Beth Allman, one half of the
Brokerage Commission (i.e. 2%) will be payable to Allie Beth Allman
as the seller's agent and 3% will be payable to the buyer's agent,
unless the buyer's agent is Allie Beth Allman or Susan Shannon, in
which case 2% will be payable to the buyer's agent.  The typical
commission structure for similar real estate transactions is 6% of
the gross purchase price with 3% for the seller's agent and 3% for
the buyer's agent.

The proceeds from the sale of the Home will be distributed as
follows: (i) first, in payment of all reasonable and necessary
closing costs attributable to the seller; (ii) next, in payment of
the Brokerage Commission and repayment of the Make-Ready Costs and
Monthly Costs to Allie Beth Allman; and (iii) finally, the
remaining net proceeds will be deposited in the Segregated Account,
subject to the
rights and claims of Laurie Wyly Matthews, the IRS, and all other
creditors of the estate.  The disbursements out of the Segregated
Account will be made pursuant to further orders of the Court.

In his business judgment, with the assistance of his professionals,
the Debtor submits that the sale of the Home will ensure the best
return for his estate and his creditors.

Within seven days after receipt by the Debtor of full and final
payment of the Net Proceeds, the Debtor will file a Notice of Sale
with the Court confirming the transaction has been completed and
the exact amounts deposited in the Segregated Account.  The Debtor
asks that the sale of the Home takes place on the soonest date
possible by Court order.

The Debtor asks that the order approving the sale of the Home be
effective immediately by providing that the14-day stay under
Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h) is waived.  Because certain repairs and
make ready items are necessary and need to begin as soon as
possible, delaying that process would only hinder the Debtor in its
efforts to maximize the value of the Home and the return to the
estate, and waiver of the stay is therefore justified.

SEARS HOLDINGS: S&P Lowers CCR to 'CCC', Outlook Negative
---------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on Sears
Holdings Corp. to 'CCC' from 'CCC+'. The outlook is negative.

S&P said, "At the same time, we lowered the issue-level ratings in
line with the corporate credit rating.

"The downgrade reflects our view that addressing 2018 maturities
over upcoming quarters will determine if the company can continue
its turnaround plan without seeking a broader restructuring. The
next significant debt maturity (besides loans partly funded by
entities affiliated with major stockholder ESL Investments Inc.) is
about $717 million of secured debt due June 30, 2018, and about
$300 million of second-lien notes due in October 2018. Maturities
are also significant in 2020, when over $1 billion in loans are
due. We see asset sales and refinancings as an important strategy
for addressing 2018 maturities given that we expect the rate of
cash burn to remain substantial into 2018. In March 2017, the
company affirmed its plans to reduce debt and pension obligations
by $1.5 billion, reduce costs by $1.25 billion, and generate real
estate sales proceeds of at least $1 billion.

"S&P Global Ratings' negative outlook on Sears reflects our view
that weak operating performance will persist into 2018 even if some
year-over-year improvements are occurring. A turnaround depends on
the company's progress with integrating its retail strategy and
announced cost-reduction plan to reverse losses and cash use. We
believe the company retains significant unencumbered real estate it
can use to generate liquidity, as it continues to demonstrate.
Still, progress in stabilizing sales and reversing earnings
declines are also important to avoid an eventual restructuring.

"We could lower the ratings if we do not believe the company will
make progress to address the mid-2018 maturities through a
combination of asset sales or refinancing.

"Although unlikely over the next few quarters, we could consider
revising the outlook to stable or raising the ratings if
performance in the company's main retail segments recovers and is
sustained, including prospects for a return to break-even EBITDA,
and if liquidity seems sufficient for 2018 and beyond, including
prospects for repayment or financing of the 2018 maturities."


SKEFCO PROPERTIES: Renasant Bank Wants Court to Prohibit Cash Use
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Renasant Bank asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of Tennessee to prohibit or restrict Consolidated Poultry
and Egg Co., James J. Skefos and Skefco Properties, Inc., from
using cash collateral.

Consolidated is currently indebted to Renasant Bank under certain
Commercial Promissory Notes and a revolving credit loan note, which
may have thereafter been renewed, extended or modified.

As of Consolidated's June 18, 2017 petition date, (a) Note
xxxx325-1 had an outstanding principal and interest balance,
excluding future accruing interest and attorneys' fees and costs of
court, of $6,924.06 and (b) Note xxxx255-1 had an outstanding
principal and interest balance, excluding future accruing interest
and attorneys' fees and costs of court, of $343,200.65.  The
foregoing amounts include collection costs in addition to principal
and interest.

The Consolidated Notes continue to accrue interest at the contract
rates as well as significant attorney fees and costs as allowed by
11 U.S.C. Section 506.  Consolidated has failed to pay in full the
principal and interest indebtedness due and owing under the
Consolidated Notes and, as such, they are presently in default.  As
of the Petition Date, the Consolidated Notes were fully matured and
payable in full.

As of the Petition Date, in addition to the loans evidenced by the
Consolidated Notes, there were four outstanding loans representing
funds extended by Renasant to either Skefos or Skefco.  As of
Skefos' Sept. 18, 2017 petition date, the indebtedness owed
Renasant pursuant to the notes where he is the named obligor was
$11,210.85.  As of Skefco's Sept. 19, 2017 petition date, the
indebtedness owed Renasant pursuant to the notes where it is the
named obligor was $149,844.85.  The Consolidated Notes and Other
Loans were secured by 17 tracts of real property.  The ownership of
the Tracts, the Consolidated Notes and Other Loans for which they
were originally pledged as security, and the balances of the
Consolidated Notes and Other Loans.

Renasant respectfully requests the Court to enter an order
prohibiting or restricting the Debtor's use of the cash collateral
and requiring the Debtor to segregate and turn over to Renasant any
cash collateral in its possession or possession of the respective
tenants to the real property.  Renasant further requests the entry
of an order requiring the Debtor to provide an accounting of all
cash collateral used by them and their insiders and affiliates
since the petition date.

SUCAMPO PHARMACEUTICALS: S&P Affirms Then Withdraws 'B' CCR
-----------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B' corporate credit rating on
U.S.-based specialty pharmaceutical company Sucampo Pharmaceuticals
Inc. The outlook is stable.

S&P said, "We subsequently withdrew the rating following Sucampo's
decision to terminate its contract with S&P Global Ratings.

"The rating reflected our view of Sucampo's weak product diversity
and its small scale with negligible market share in the
gastrointestinal therapeutic category. It also reflected our
expectations that the company will not face generic competition on
its main product Amitiza for a few years and revenue will continue
to grow and margins will improve modestly. In addition, we expect
the company will produce moderate discretionary cash flow. While
leverage at June 30, 2017, was 2.6x, we expect Sucampo to make
acquisitions to reduce its reliance on Amitiza. We expect leverage
will rise from current levels, but remain under 5x."

TANGO TRANSPORT: Plan Trustee Selling Madisonville Propty for $241K
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Christopher Moser, the plan trustee for Tango Transport, LLC and

District of Texas to authorize the sale of a large parcel of land
in at 2911 Anton Road, Madisonville, Kentucky to Steve Pleasant and
Barrett McGaw, II for $241,000.

The Debtors owns the Property free and clear of liens, claims and
encumbrances.  It is designated as Lot #3, Lot #4, and the
remainder of Lot #5, totaling 29.139 acres.  The Property is no
longer necessary to the Plan Trustee.

The Debtor and the Purchasers entered into the Madisonville-Hopkins
County Board of Realtors Uniform Sales and Purchase Contract for
the sale and purchase of the Property for $241,000.  The earnest
money in the amount of $5,000 will be placed into the escrow
account of Ken Gibson Realtors.  The court-appointed broker, Ken
Gibson, has extensive knowledge of the market and has received
several bids on the Property.  The Closing of the sale will be on

#3.

A copy of the Contract attached to the Motion is available for free

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/Tango_Transport_534_Sales.pdf

From the proceeds of the sale, the Plan Trustee proposes to pay
reasonable and normal costs associated with the sale of the
Property, including any fees to the broker.

Because the Property is of modest value, the Plan Trustee asks that
the Court orders that Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 6004(h)
does not apply to any order granting the relief sought.

The Purchasers:

          Steve Pleasant and Barrett McGaw, II
          34 Hall Street
          Madisonville, KY 42431

THINK FINANCE: Wants to Use Cash Collateral in Operations
---------------------------------------------------------
Think Finance, LLC, and its affiliates seek permission from the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas to use
cash collateral to operate their business and effectuate a
reorganization of their business.

The Debtors have been starved of needed liquidity by the wrongful
actions of Victory Park in refusing to turn over tens of millions
of dollars that belong to the Debtors.  Based on Victory Park's
conduct prior to the Petition Date, the Debtors anticipate that
Victory Park will not voluntary turn over these funds as required
by Sections 362 and 542(a) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
Accordingly, the Debtors intend to initiate an adversary proceeding
by filing a complaint against Victory Park Capital Advisors, LLC,
its affiliates Victory Park Management, LLC, and GPL Servicing
Agent, LLC, and GPL Servicing, Ltd., seeking, among other relief,
turnover of the funds improperly withheld.

The Debtor seeks authority for the Debtors to have immediate access
and use of cash collateral.  This relief is necessary for the
Debtors to address their working capital needs and to fund their
reorganization efforts.  The Debtors' ability to immediately use
the cash collateral also is critical to reassure their employees,
trade vendors, and other constituencies that the Debtors will be in
a position to meet their obligations during the pendency of these
cases.  Absent immediate access to the cash collateral, the Debtors
almost certainly will experience business disruptions and,
moreover, their ability to reorganize and to maximize the value of
their assets will be damaged irreparably to the direct detriment of
all creditors and parties in interest.

The Debtors say that GPL Servicing, Ltd., is adequately protected.
The Debtors believe that GPLS will receive interest and finance
charges in an adequate amount to pay all such expenses that will
arise during the period covered by the interim court order.  The
GPLS Secured Parties also are adequately protected by an equity
cushion that far exceeds 20% for the duration of the interim
period, which clearly constitutes adequate protection under
applicable case law.

The Debtors also request that the Court authorize and approve the
Debtors' use of cash collateral for the payment of any fees and
expenses owed to professionals employed by them upon the entry of
an order from this Court authorizing the payment of such
professional expenses.

The Debtors dispute the validity of any liens asserted by Victory
Park Capital Advisors, LLC, its affiliates Victory Park Management,
LLC, and GPL Servicing Agent, LLC, and GPL Servicing, Ltd., and do
not concede that any party has a perfected security interest in the
cash collateral.  Solely for purposes of the Motion and the
immediate hearing thereon, however, the Debtors will presume that
the GPLS Secured Parties have perfected security interests in the
Debtors' cash collateral as the existence of the liens asserted by
Defendants is an issue that the Debtors seek to resolve through the
adversary proceeding.

LLC, as claims and noticing agent.


THOMAS GRABANSKI: Counsel Ordered to Disgorge $44,887 in Fees
-------------------------------------------------------------
In the bankruptcy case captioned THOMAS M. GRABANSKI and MARI K.
GRABANSKI, Chapter 11, Debtors, Bankruptcy No. 10-30902 (Bankr.
D.N.D.), Bankruptcy Judge Thad J. Collins orders Attorney DeWayne
Johnston, Esq., counsel for the Debtors, to disgorge $44,887.74 in
fees.

Johnston received compensation for his work in connection with this
bankruptcy case beyond what the Court approved as reasonable.
Interested parties John and Dawn Keeley argue that Johnston
received $262,301.50 (or possibly $567,801.50 depending on
treatment of a $300,000 payment) even though the Court approved
only $37,013.76. The Keeleys ask the Court to order Johnston to
disgorge the difference between what he received and what was
approved -- $262,301.50 or possibly $526,787.74.

Johnston argues that the Court cannot order him to disgorge fees
related to this case. He argues: that the Court does not have
jurisdiction over his fees because the Court dismissed the
bankruptcy; that the Keeleys do not have standing to request
disgorgement; that res judicata and the Rooker-Feldman doctrine
preclude disgorgement; and that fees paid to him beyond the
Court-approved amount were not for work done "in connection with"
this case. He argues that, even if the Court could order
disgorgement, he has already returned much of the money at issue
through settlements and other litigation.

The Court finds that the Keeleys were creditors in this bankruptcy
and continue to be creditors in the Texas bankruptcy and thus have
standing to seek disgorgement of Johnston's fees. They have set out
a pecuniary interest in the funds--if the disgorged fees go to the
Debtors' Texas bankruptcy estate, the Keeleys will be able to take
part in any distribution as creditors. Moreover, even if they did
not have standing, "the Court has an independent duty to review fee
applications." Even if the Keeleys did not have standing, the Court
may explore the issue sua sponte.

The Court rejects Johnston's legal arguments, finds that his
disputed fees were paid in connection with this case, that his fees
exceeded the reasonable amount previously approved, and that he
failed to properly disclose and explain the fees.

The Court orders Johnston to disgorge $44,887.74 in fees to the
Chapter 7 Trustee in the Grabanski's bankruptcy in the Eastern
District of Texas and orders him to file a disclosure showing the
source of the unreacted $300,000 payment and $1,500 payments on
this IOLTA trust account within 30 days of this ruling.

The Court also sanctions Johnston in the amount of the Keeleys'
reasonable attorney's fees for their work pursing disgorgement. The
Keeleys' have 21 days to file a formal fee application for fees and
expenses incurred in the pursuit of disgorgement.

TWO BAR O COUNTRY: Seeks Authorization to Use Cash Collateral
-------------------------------------------------------------
Two Bar O Country Store, Inc., seeks authorization from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona to use cash held in
its debtor in possession accounts in order to pay those expenses
set forth in the Budget and to operate its business.

The Debtor is party to an expired commercial lease with Tucson Feed
and Pet Food, LLC. The Debtor receives a monthly amount of $3,646
pursuant to the lease. Moreover, the Debtor is also party to an
Option and Site Lease Agreement dating back to 1996 with AT&T
Wireless PCS, LLC, and the last tenant option under the most recent
addendum expires in 2026.

In order to run its business effectively, the Debtor asserts that
it must continue to make use of the rental income in order to meet
its ongoing obligations as it seeks to reorganize under Chapter 11.
The Debtor also asserts that timely payment of the expenses are
essential for the Debtor to continue its business for at least the
next ninety days, while a plan is being formulated.

The Debtor has prepared a budget which provides total expenses of
$1,979.48 during the months of September, October and November
2017, which is based on the Debtor's income and expenses during the
same months last year.

The Debtor's property located at 7821 E. Wrightstown Road, Tucson,
Arizona is encumbered by a first position lien in favor of the
State of Arizona Department of Revenue ("AZDOR") in the approximate
amount of $53,165. The Debtor believes that the real property taxes
due and owing against the property is in the approximate amount of
$50,000.

The property is also encumbered by a second position Deed of Trust
and Assignment of Rents and the Note which is presently held by
Hogan School of Real Estate, Inc., securing an approximate balance
of $140,000.

The Debtor asserts that the amount of the AZDOR Lien, county
property taxes and the Hogan School -- the combined encumbrances do
not exceed $250,000. The Debtor asserts that Hogan School is an
oversecured consensual Lender because of the value of the property,
without considering the value of the future right of the Debtor to
grant a right of easement in an existing cellular phone tower.
Further, the Debtor asserts that if the cash collateral is used
solely for the purpose of paying real property taxes and insurance,
Hogan School is adequately protected.

The Debtor claims that the value of identifiable future rents from
the AT&T Lease through 2026 have both future and present value that
informs the issue of adequate protection. More importantly, the
Debtor owns the right to option the site lease and grant of
easement period after 2026. Debtor asserts that the present value
of future rents from any site lease agreement from 2026 and beyond
conservatively exceeds the combined encumbrances in this case.

VISTRA ENERGY: S&P Affirms 'BB-' CCR Amid Dynegy Merger
-------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it affirmed its corporate credit ratings on
diversified energy company Vistra Energy Corp. and its subsidiary,
Vistra Operations Co. LLC (Vistra Operations). The outlook is
stable. S&P has also affirmed the 'BB+' issue-level ratings on
Vistra Operating's term loans B and C. The recovery rating the term
loans is '1', reflecting its expectation of very high (90%-100%;
rounded estimate: 95%) recovery in the event of default.

Vistra Energy Corp. and Dynegy Inc. have announced their intention
to merge in a stock-for-stock transaction that will create a
company with approximately 40 gigawatts (GW) of installed capacity,
180 terawatt hours (TWh) of expected generation, and 75 TWh of
retail load.

S&P said, "Our affirmation follows the announcement that the two
companies will merge in a stock-for-stock transaction. Vistra
Energy Corp. will be the surviving company, with the board of the
combined companies consisting of eight directors from Vistra and
three from Dynegy. All of the debt that is a direct obligation of
Dynegy Inc. today (credit agreement and bonds) will become direct
obligations of Vistra Energy at the closing. The debt at Vistra
Operating today will remain outstanding at Vistra Operating after
closing. Under the terms of the Dynegy credit agreement (which will
be the Vistra Energy credit agreement after the close), Vistra
Operating will be designated as an "excluded project subsidiary."
As such, Vistra Operating and its subsidiaries will not guarantee
the Dynegy/Vistra Energy credit agreement or the Dynegy/Vistra
Energy bonds."

After the closing, all of the Dynegy debt (credit agreement and
bonds) will be at the Vistra parent company level. While this debt
will not be guaranteed by Vistra Operating's subsidiaries or
benefit from a lien on any of Vistra Operating's assets, it will
benefit from the residual equity value at Vistra Operating. The
Vistra Operating debt will continue to be guaranteed by all of
Vistra Operating's subsidiaries and it will continue to benefit
from a lien on substantially all of Vistra Operating's assets. This
debt will not be guaranteed by any of Dynegy's subsidiaries or have
a claim on any of Dynegy's assets.

On a stand-alone basis, the outlook on parent Vistra Energy and
subsidiary Vistra Operations LLC is stable. S&P said, "Based on the
current portfolio assets and cash flows, which incorporates
run-rate retail power EBITDA and cost-saving measures, we expect
the company to maintain adjusted debt to EBITDA (under our
calculations, which impute debt for asset retirements etc.) of no
higher than 3.75x and funds from operations (FFO) to debt above 20%
over the forecast period. We expect some volatility in cash flows,
yet expect these ratio levels despite low Henry Hub benchmark gas
prices, significant renewable proliferation, pressure on load
growth, and increasing environmental regulation. We continue to
believe that the retail power business will likely provide some
offset to continuing pressure on wholesale power margins. Our
base-case EBITDA for 2017-2018 is about 15% lower than management's
estimated EBITDA levels in 2016. Under currently anticipated market
conditions, we expect that the counter-cyclical relationship
between retail and wholesale margins provides a floor EBITDA level
at $1.2-$1.25 billion."

S&P said, "If the merger is successful, we would expect
diversification offered through access to markets in PJM, New
England, and New York, as well significant fuel diversification to
be favorable for credit. In addition, diversification of revenue
sources to capacity market cash flows and away from an energy-only
market will improve the business risk profile to fair. We expect
the outlook to be stable based on pro forma adjusted debt to EBITDA
that we expect to be below 4.5x on a run-rate basis. However, at
close, we expect gross adjusted debt to EBITDA ratios over 4.5 x,
but expect deleveraging to decrease the ratios by year-end 2018.
These financial measures do not assume all anticipated merger
synergies and savings.

"On a stand-alone basis, while we expect FFO to debt levels of
about 20% in our base-case, we note that financial measures are
relatively more volatile because the company does not have
significant hedges beyond 2018 and it participates in a somewhat
weaker market. We could lower the ratings if debt to EBITDA
increases above 4.25x, or FFO to debt declines below 17% and stays
at that level. At this stage, we do not see any further ability to
leverage without a sustained track record of cash flow generation
(or additional assets that support additional debt). This would
likely stem from a combination of softer energy markets brought on
by lower gas prices and less robust demand and increased retail
competition that materially affects retail power margins, as well
as weakened efficiency and availability at key plants. Furthermore,
future acquisitions, if funded with debt, could cause financial
measures to weaken.

"On a pro forma basis, we could lower the ratings if debt to EBITDA
increases above 4.75x on a sustained basis or if FFO to debt
declines below 14%. We note that our analysis has financial ratios
higher than management's because we forecast a slower deleveraging
than management's expectation. Our assessment assumes some net debt
treatment for surplus cash but we also expect that the pro forma
company will use cash on hand to retire incremental debt at
closing. Management has stated its intention of targeting a net 3x
debt to EBITDA ratio by year-end 2019, which requires debt
reduction.

"On a stand-alone basis, an upgrade is unlikely until we see a
track record that the company's cash flows indeed offer a
counter-cyclical hedge between its retail and wholesale operations.
We could raise the ratings if financial measures improve, such that
debt to EBITDA remains consistently below 3.25x and FFO to debt
improves over 25%. This would likely result from steadily growing
demand and higher natural gas prices, as well as more robust and
incentive-laden ERCOT energy prices. Given its established
presence, ability to mitigate attrition rates in its retail
business (despite being in a bankruptcy), and well-positioned
assets that serve retail power load obligations, Vistra could be in
a good position to take advantage of secular changes.

"On a combined basis, we would raise the ratings if the adjusted
debt to EBITDA declines below 3.5x on a sustained basis or if FFO
to debt increases above 20%-22% on a sustained basis."

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Rich Archer at Law360 reports that the unsecured claimholders in
Westinghouse Electric Co.'s bankruptcy case asked for permission to
intervene in a putative class action claiming the company fired

and other workers at the failed South Carolina nuclear project that
dragged the company into bankruptcy were fired without adequate

WOMEN'S HEALTH: May Use Cash Collateral Until Dec. 1
----------------------------------------------------
The Hon. James P. Smith of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle
District of Georgia has entered a final consent order authorizing
The Women's Health Institute of Macon, PC, to use cash collateral
until Dec. 1, 2017, at 11:59 p.m.

WHI has informed the Court that Branch Banking and Trust Company,
which has a first-priority security interest in the cash
collateral, has agreed to permit WHI to continue to use cash
collateral of BB&T on a final basis.

BB&T and WHI stipulate that on June 2, 2015, BB&T made a loan to
WHI secured by certain personal property located in Georgia
pursuant to, among other documents, the following:

     a. Promissory Note dated June 2, 2015, in the original
principal amount of $500,000, made by WHI in favor of BB&T as
payee;

     b. Loan Agreement dated June 2, 2015, by and between WHI and
BB&T;

     c. BB&T Security Agreement dated June 2, 2015, executed by WHI
in favor of BB&T, conveying a security interest in and lien upon
certain personal property owned by WHI and described in the
Security Agreement, including, without limitation, all accounts and
general intangibles, among other categories of personal property;

     d. BB&T Commercial Guaranty agreements, each dated June 2,
2015, executed by Dr. Nnaemeka M. Umerah, Stella A. Umerah, Anayo
Umerah MD PC, and ELO Outpatient Surgery Center LLC; and

     e. certain related documents, contracts, assignments,
subordination agreements, instruments, and UCC filings.

As of June 5, 2017, the principal amount of the indebtedness owed
by WHI to BB&T under the Note was not less than $500,000, exclusive
of interest, costs, attorneys' fees, and other amounts chargeable
to WHI under the loan documents.

WHI asserts that it requires the use of cash collateral to continue
operating its business.  WHI asserts that serious and potentially
irreparable harm to WHI, its creditors and its estates may occur
absent authorization for the use of cash collateral.

As adequate protection for any diminution in the value of BB&T's
interest in the cash collateral or the personal property, including
any diminution resulting from the use of cash collateral on or
after the Petition Date pursuant to this consent order, BB&T is
granted valid, binding, enforceable, and automatically perfected
liens on and security interests in the personal property, wherever
located and whether created, acquired or arising prior to, on, or
after the Petition Date.

WHI will make interest payments to BB&T in the amounts as
calculated, and as and when payments are due, under the Loan
Documents (without regard to any default).

YI GROUP: S&P Assigns 'B-' Corp Credit Rating on Recapitalization
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'B-' corporate credit rating to YI
Group Holdings LLC (Young Innovations). The outlook is stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned our 'B-' issue-level and
'3' recovery ratings to subsidiary YI LLC's $50 million revolver,
$270 million first-lien credit facility, and $100 million
first-lien delayed-draw term loan. The '3' recovery rating
indicates our expectations for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded
estimate: 60%) recovery in the event of a default."

Young Innovations is a dental-products manufacturer specializing in
low-priced consumable products used in preventive and restorative
care. The company operates in four segments:

-- Preventive care (47% of revenue in the last 12 months)
primarily consists of products used by dental professionals in
cleaning and polishing procedures.

-- Restorative (18%) primarily consists of single-use instruments
for restorative dental procedures.

-- Infection control (6%) primarily consists of products that
address professional infection prevention and control, ranging from
instrument care to surface disinfectants.

-- Clinical specialty (29%) consists of orthodontic and endodontic
consumable products and diagnostic equipment.

YI Group Holdings LLC (which does business as Young Innovations),
an Algonquin, Ill.-based dental products manufacturer, is
recapitalizing as part of its acquisition by private equity firm
The Jordan Company LP.

Young Innovations' debt capital structure will consist of a $50
million first-lien revolver (initially undrawn), a $270 million
first-lien term loan, $100 million delayed-draw term loan, and a
$120 million second-lien term loan.

S&P said, "Our rating on Young Innovations reflects the company's
small scale (about $160 million in annual revenues in the last 12
months), a relatively narrow focus on the dental-products market,
and our view that it has some vulnerability to intensified
competition given the presence of significantly larger and
financially stronger peers.

"Our positive outlook reflects S&P Global Ratings' expectation that
the company will continue to grow in the mid-single-digit
percentage area and that EBITDA will remain stable at around 30%,
resulting in a decline in adjusted leverage to below 7x. Although
we expect only about $10 million of free cash flow in 2018, we
believe it will increase to around $20 million over the next few
years, with growth in EBITDA of around 30%. However, we see some
risk to this forecast given the company's limited track record in
consistently generating free cash flow.

"We could consider revising the outlook to stable if competition
intensifies, prompting a margin contraction of about 300 basis
points (bps). The resultant negligible discretionary cash flow over
an extended period would be commensurate with the 'B-' rating.

"A key constraint for the rating is the high leverage and limited
cash flow generation. We would consider raising the rating if we
expect Young Innovations to simultaneously increase its free cash
flow generation to above $15 million and decrease leverage to 6x-7x
over the next two years. This scenario is likely to materialize if
the company posts mid-single-digit percentage growth and sustains

[^] BOOK REVIEW: Lost Prophets -- An Insider's History

Review by Henry Berry

Alfred Malabre's personal perspective on the U.S. economy over the
past four decades is firmly grounded in his experience and
knowledge. Economics Editor of The Wall Street Journal from 1969
to 1993 and author of its weekly "Outlook" column, Malabre was in
a singular position to follow the U.S. economy in recent decades,
have access to the major academic and political figures
responsible for economic affairs, and get behind the crucial
economic stories of the day. He brings to this critical overview
of the economy both a lively, often provocative, commentary on the
picture of the turns of the economy. To this he adds sharp
analysis and cogent explanation.

In general, Malabre does not put much stock in economists. "In
sum, the profession's record in the half century since Keynes and
White sat down at Bretton Woods [after World War II] provokes
dismay." Following this sour note, he refers to the belief of a
noted fellow economist that the Nobel Prize in this field should
be discontinued. In doing so, he also points out that the Nobel
for economics was not one originally endowed by Alfred Nobel, but
was one added at a later date funded by the central bank of Sweden
apparently in an effort to give the profession of economists the
prestige and notice of medicine, science, literature and other
Nobel categories.

Malabre's view of economists is widespread, although rarely
expressed in economic circles. It derives from the plain fact
that modern economists, even hugely influential ones such as John
Meynard Keynes, are wrong as many times as they are right. Their
economic theories have proved incomplete or shortsighted, if not
basically wrong-headed. For example, Malabre thinks of the
leading economist Milton Friedman and his "monetarist colleagues"
as "super salespeople, successfully merchandising.an economic
medicine that promised far more than it could deliver" from about
the 1960s through the Reagan years of the 1980s. But the author
not only cites how the economy has again and again disproved the
theories and exposed the irrelevance of wrong-headedness of the
policy recommendations of the most influential economists of the
day. Malabre also lays out abundant economic data and describes
contemporary marketplace and social activities to show how the
economy performs almost independently of the best analyses and
ideas of economists.

Malabre does not engage in his critiques of noted economists and
prevailing economic ideas of recent decades as an end in itself.
What emerges in all of his consistent, clear-eyed, unideological
analysis and commentary is his own broad, seasoned view of
economics-namely, the predominance of the business cycle. He
compares this with human nature, which is after all the substance
of economics often overlooked by professional and academic
economists with their focus on monetary policy, exchange rates,
inflation, and such. "The business cycle, like human nature, is
here to stay" is the lesson Malabre aims to impart to readers
interested in understanding the fundamental, abiding nature of
economics. In Lost Prophets, in language that is accessible and
jargon-free, this author, who has observed, written about, and
explained economics from all angles for several decades,
persuasively makes this point.

In addition to holding a top position at The Wall Street Journal,
Malabre is also the author of the books, Understanding the New
Economy and Beyond Our Means, which received the George S. Eccles
Prize from the Columbia Business School as the best economics book
of 1987.

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
