                    About Apollo Endosurgery

Headquartered in Austin, Texas, Apollo Endosurgery, Inc. --
http://www.apolloendo.com/-- is a medical device company focused
on less invasive therapies for the treatment of obesity, a
condition facing over 600 million people globally, as well as other
gastrointestinal disorders.  Apollo's device based therapies are an
alternative to invasive surgical procedures, thus lowering
complication rates and reducing total healthcare costs.  Apollo's
products are offered in over 80 countries today.  Apollo's common
stock is traded on NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol "APEN".

Apollo Endosurgery reported a net loss attributable to common
stockholders of $41.16 million for the year ended Dec. 31, 2016,
compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of

2017, Apollo Endosurgery had $114 million in total assets, $57.16

Sept. 30, 2017, that it has experienced operating losses since
inception and occasional debt covenant violations and has an
accumulated deficit of $169,706,000 as of Sept. 30, 2017.  To date,
the Company has funded its operating losses and acquisitions
through equity offerings and the issuance of debt instruments.  The
Company's ability to fund future operations will depend upon its
level of future operating cash flow and its ability to access
additional funding through either equity offerings, issuances of
debt instruments or both.


APOLLO MEDICAL: Files Financial Statements of Acquired Business
---------------------------------------------------------------
Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc., filed a Current Report on Form 8-K
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Dec. 13, 2017, to
report the completion of the merger of its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Apollo Acquisition Corp., with and into Network Medical Management,
Inc. as the surviving entity, in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of Dec.
21, 2016, by and among the Company, Merger Sub, NMM and Kenneth
Sim, M.D., as the NMM shareholders' representative.  The Merger
closed and became effective on Dec. 8, 2017.  As a result of the
Merger, NMM now is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and
former NMM shareholders own a majority of the issued and
outstanding common stock of the Company.  

For accounting purposes, the Merger is treated as a "reverse
acquisition" and NMM is considered the accounting acquirer.
Accordingly, as of the Closing, NMM's historical results of
operations will replace the Company's historical results of
operations for all periods prior to the Merger, and the results of
operations of both companies will be included in the Company's
financial statements for all periods following the Merger.
Effective upon the Closing, the Company's board of directors
approved a change in the Company's fiscal year-end from March 31 to
December 31, to correspond with NMM's fiscal year-end prior to the
Merger.

On Feb. 23, 2018, the Company filed an Amendment No. 1 to amend
Item 9.01 of the Initial 8-K (i) to include the required financial
statements of NMM and pro forma information in connection with the
Merger within 71 days from the date on which the Initial 8-K was
required to be filed and (ii) to prevent a lapse in reporting by
providing the required information for NMM, the accounting
acquirer, as set forth in the SEC's Division of Corporate Finance
Financial Reporting Manual, which covers situations involving
reverse acquisitions where the registrant elects to adopt the
fiscal year of the accounting acquirer.

The first three bullet points of the second paragraph under Item
2.01 of the Initial 8-K were amended as follows:

In connection with the Merger and as of the effective time of the
Merger:

   * each issued and outstanding share of NMM common stock was
     converted into the right to receive such number of shares of
     common stock of the Company that results in the former NMM
     shareholders who did not dissent from the Merger having a
     right to receive an aggregate of 30,397,489 shares of common
     stock of the Company, subject to the 10% holdback pursuant to
     the Merger Agreement and (A) without taking into account (i)
     520,041 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion
     of the Alliance Note, and (ii) shares of common stock
     issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant Consideration, and
     (B) without giving effect to any shares of common stock of
     the Company issuable upon payment of any indemnification
     obligations under the Merger Agreement;

   * the Company issued to Former NMM Shareholders each Former NMM

     Shareholder's pro rata portion of (i) warrants to purchase an
     aggregate of 850,000 shares of common stock of the Company,
     exercisable at $11.00 per share, and (ii) warrants to
     purchase an aggregate of 900,000 shares of common stock of
     the Company, exercisable at $10.00 per share;

   * the Company held back an aggregate of 3,039,749 shares of
     Company common stock issuable to Former NMM Shareholders,
     representing 10% of the total number of shares of Company
     common stock issuable to Former NMM Shareholders, to secure
     indemnification rights of the Company and its affiliates
     under the Merger Agreement;

The last paragraph under Item 2.01 of the Initial 8-K, titled
"Conversion of Alliance Note," was amended as follows:

     As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed
     by the Company on April 5, 2017 and October 20, 2017, the
     Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note to Alliance
     Apex, LLC in the principal amount of $4,990,000 on March 30,
     2017.  On December 11, 2017, the business day following the
     closing of the Merger, the Alliance Note automatically
     converted into 520,041 shares of the Company's common stock.
     The securities were sold by the Company to Alliance in
     reliance upon the exemption from registration contained in
     Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
     and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated by the SEC
     thereunder.

The fifth to last paragraph under Item 2.01 of the Initial 8-K is
hereby amended as follows:

     Immediately following the Effective Time, the stockholders of

     the Company prior to the Merger continued to hold an
     aggregate of 6,109,205 shares of common stock of the Company.

The last paragraph under Item 5.03 of the Initial 8-K, titled
"Change in Fiscal Year," was amended as follows:

      As of the effective time of the Merger, the Company's board
      of directors approved a change in the Company's fiscal year-
      end from March 31 to December 31, to correspond with the
      fiscal year-end of NMM prior to the Merger.  As a result of
      this change, the Company's first fiscal year-end following
      the Merger was December 31, 2017.  The Company plans to
      report the financial results reflecting the combined
      operations of the Company and NMM for the fiscal year ended
      December 31, 2017 on a Form 10-K on or prior to April 2,
      2018.

the year ended March 31, 2016.

BDO USA, LLP, in Los Angeles, California, issued a "going concern"
qualification in its report on the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended March 31, 2017, stating that the
Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has
generated negative cash flows from operations since inception,
resulting in an accumulated deficit of $37.7 million as of March
31, 2017.  These factors among others raise substantial doubt about
its ability to continue as a going concern.


APPLEWOOD CAFE: Wants to Move Plan Filing Deadline to April 30
--------------------------------------------------------------
Applewood Cafe, LLC, d/b/a Apple Wood Cafe & Catering, requests the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of New York to
extending the time within which the Debtor must file its Small
Business Plan and Disclosure Statement through April 30, 2018.

Since the commencement of the case, the Debtor has made a number of
steps along the path toward reorganization.  Initially, as of the
Filing, the Debtor obtained authorization to use cash collateral
subject to liens of its principal secured creditor, the New York
State Department of Taxation and Finance.  The Debtor is currently
making adequate protection payments to NYS Tax in amounts
sufficient to amortize the total of the Debtor's prepetition
secured and priority State tax liabilities within 60 months of the
Filing of this case.

Additionally, with the consent of NYS Tax, the Debtor's use of cash
collateral has been extended by the Court until such time as: (1)
the Debtor confirms a Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization; (2) a
Chapter 11 Trustee is appointed; (3) this case is converted or
dismissed; or (4) the Court orders otherwise.

The Court has established Sept. 15, 2017 as the date by which all
prepetition claims must be filed. The Debtor has generally been
operating at a profit.  The Debtor has sought and obtained
authority to assume its pre-petition leases for its restaurant
location and certain equipment located at 5385 Main Street,
Williamsville, New York 14221.

The Debtor's counsel has prepared an initial draft of the Debtor's
Small Business Plan and Disclosure Statement and still needs to
confer further with the Debtor's principals regarding the terms of
the Plan and regarding their preparation of projections and a
liquidation analysis which will be needed to accompany the Plan.
Recognizing the deadline -- the statutory deadline is March 15,
2018 -- for the filing of a Small Business Plan and Disclosure
Statement is rapidly approaching, however, an extension of this
deadline is being sought at this time.

The Debtor intends to file that Small Business Plan and Disclosure
Statement as soon as practicable. Under the circumstances of this
case, however, the Debtor seeks to extend the upcoming deadline for
a relatively brief additional period to ensure that this objective
is accomplished before the Debtor's time to do so has expired.

Based in Springfield, Missouri, Architectural Materials Co. was
originally formed in October 1975 with current stock ownership
divided with 30% held by Mitchell "Todd" Smith, 25% held by Tim

Smith).  Todd Smith serves as President and Tim Smith serves as

sales, and insulation of a variety of commercial specialty products
including glass, windows, glazing, and folding partition walls.  In
the calendar year of 2016 the business operation was negatively
affected by several large commercial jobs that created a financial
strain on cash flow.  

Architectural Materials Co. filed its voluntary petition for relief
under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. W.D. Mo. Case No.
17-60887) on Aug. 14, 2017, estimating under $1 million in both

ARCHROCK PARTNERS: S&P Affirms 'B' CCR, Outlook Remains Stable
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B' corporate credit rating on
Archrock Partners L.P. The outlook remains stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we affirmed our 'B-' issue-level
rating on the partnership's senior unsecured notes. The '5'
recovery rating remains unchanged, indicating our expectation for
modest (10%-30%; rounded estimate: 25%) recovery in the event of a
payment default.

"The 'B' corporate credit rating on Archrock reflects our weak
assessment of the partnership's business risk profile and our
highly leveraged assessment of its financial risk profile. We now
expect the company to maintain adjusted debt-to-EBITDA of
approximately 5.5x in 2018.

"The stable outlook on Archrock reflects our expectation that the
partnership's utilization will improve slightly in 2018. In
particular, we expect that the partnership will sustain
debt-to-EBITDA of approximately 5.5x in 2018 while maintaining
adequate liquidity.

"We could consider lowering our ratings on Archrock if its
debt-to-EBITDA exceeded 6x for an extended period. This could occur
if the demand for compression services weakens due to lower natural
gas prices, leading to decreased production and an oversupply of
compression capacity.

"We could consider raising our ratings on Archrock if we expect the
partnership to maintain debt-to-EBITDA of less than 4.5x. This
could occur if the partnership adopts a more conservative financial
policy or natural gas prices improve, leading to increased
production and demand for compression services."

BALL CORP: S&P Alters Outlook to Stable & Affirms 'BB+' CCR
-----------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB+' corporate credit rating and
all other ratings on Broomfield, Colo.-based Ball Corp. At the same
time S&P revised its outlook to stable from negative.

S&P said, "Our outlook revision reflects Ball's solid operating
performance and substantial progress in deleveraging its capital
structure. Despite the company's plans for additional plant
investment and resuming share repurchases, Ball's credit measures
will still compare favorably in future years relative to those in
recent periods when it was still integrating the bulk of the Rexam
acquisition. When Ball acquired Rexam in mid-2016, it planned to
obtain at least $300 million of synergies within three and a half
years. To this point, the company has realized over $150 million in
synergies pertaining to general and administrative expenses,
sourcing, and footprint optimization.

"The stable outlook on Ball Corp. reflects our view that the
company will continue its solid operating performance during the
next year through continued adoption of specialty cans by its
beverage customers, international growth, and a healthy aerospace
backlog. Productivity initiatives and continued realization of
synergies will also promote good credit measures for the rating and
will help offset the ongoing erosion in domestic beer and
carbonated beverage consumption. The ratings contain some capacity
for Ball to undertake its growth strategy, which may involve
debt-funded acquisitions that could cause credit measures to
temporarily weaken from current levels. We view an adjusted debt to
EBITDA ratio of 4x-5x and an FFO to debt ratio of 12%-20% on a
run-rate basis as sufficient for the ratings, though we would
expect the company's credit measures to outperform these levels on
a normal basis.

"We could lower our ratings on the company if operational
challenges brought about by changing consumer preferences,
competitive pressures, increasing material costs, or other factors
result in the company's credit measures unexpectedly weakening.
Given our assumed sales growth for Ball, we estimate a five
percentage point reduction in EBITDA margins could result in its
adjusted debt to EBITDA ratio increasing to above 5x. Unexpectedly
aggressive financial policies and permanent re-leveraging events
could also cause us to lower the ratings.

"In order for us to raise the ratings, management would need a
track record of operating with lower debt leverage, potentially by
maintaining an FFO-to-adjusted debt ratio of more than 20% and an
adjusted debt-to-EBITDA ratio of less than 4x. A public commitment
to adopting more conservative financial policies would also be a
key determinant of a potential upgrade. This could cause us to
revise our financial policy modifier assessment to neutral from
negative. If Ball is able to enhance its profit margins to near 20%
while retaining its scale and market share and keeping its credit
measures at meaningfully stronger levels within the category, then
we may also contemplate revising the comparable rating analysis
modifier to neutral from negative. However, we believe it is
unlikely that this will occur over the next year."

                          About Biostage

Headquartered in Holliston, Massachusetts, Biostage, Inc., formerly
Harvard Apparatus Regenerative Technology, Inc. --
http://www.biostage.com/-- is a biotechnology company developing
bio-engineered organ implants based on the Company's new Cellframe
technology which combines a proprietary biocompatible scaffold with
a patient's own stem cells to create Cellspan organ implants.
Cellspan implants are being developed to treat life-threatening
conditions of the esophagus, bronchus or trachea with the hope of
dramatically improving the treatment paradigm for patients.  Based
on its pre-clinical data, Biostage has selected life-threatening
conditions of the esophagus as the initial clinical application of
its technology.  

Biostage reported a net loss of $11.57 million for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2016, compared to a net loss of $11.70 million for the
year ended Dec. 31, 2015.  The Company's balance sheet as of Sept.
30, 2017, showed $2.55 million in total assets, $2.07 million in
total liabilities and $477,000 in total stockholders' equity.

KPMG LLP, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements for the year
ended Dec. 31, 2016, citing that the Company has suffered recurring
losses from operations and will require additional financing to
fund future operations which raise substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern.


BLACK ELK: Delaware Trust's Claim Deemed Allowed, Court Rules
-------------------------------------------------------------
Richard Schmidt, Trustee of the Black Elk Litigation Trust,
objected to claims filed by Delaware Trust Company in Black Elk
Energy Offshore Operations, LLC's bankruptcy. Delaware filed a
motion for summary judgment to disallow the Trustee's claim
objections. Judge Marvin Isgur of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Texas granted Delaware's motion.

Delaware argued that the Trustee's objection is barred under the
doctrine of res judicata because Black Elk’s plan specifically
allows its claims in their full amount. Delaware pointed to
language in the plan that states, "the litigation trust reserve[s]
the right to object to any claim (other than claims deemed in the
plan to be Allowed Claims)." The Trustee claimed that Delaware's
reading of the confirmed plan is too narrow and ignores important
sections of the plan that preserve the Trustee's right to object.

A bankruptcy court's order confirming a plan of reorganization
constitutes a final judgment. Bankruptcy courts view confirmed
plans of reorganization as contracts. After confirmation, the
debtor's entire estate is dissolved, including potential causes of
action that belong to the debtor. If a claim is not properly
preserved, the confirmed plan's res judicata effect nullifies the
claim. In order for claims to be preserved post-confirmation, the
plan must make a "specific and unequivocal" reservation of a claim.
To meet this standard, a reservation must provide creditors with
sufficient notice to know whether the plan's terms resolve a
dispute, or whether an entity seeks to pursue the dispute after
confirmation. The Fifth Circuit has held that "an objection to a
proof of claim serves to initiate a contested matter and thereby
serves the purpose of putting the parties on notice that litigation
is required to resolve the objection."

Turning to the Plan, its terms dictate that Delaware's claim is
deemed allowed. The Third Amended Plan of Liquidation confirmed by
the Court on July 13, 2016, sets out six impaired classes of claims
and their treatment under the Plan. Section V D specifically refers
to Delaware's claims stating: "The Senior Notes Claim shall be
allowed in the full amount of the Senior Notes Pre-Petition
Obligations." On its face, the Plan allows Delaware's claim to the
Senior Notes and no reservations are made preserving any right to
object to the claim. After the Court's confirmation, the Plan's
terms were reduced to a final judgment, entitling Delaware to its
allowed claim.

Delaware has carried its initial summary judgment burden,
demonstrating that its claim is allowed based on the Plan's
treatment of its claim. The Trustee, however, has failed to raise a
genuine issue of material fact regarding Delaware's right to its
allowed claim.

The bankruptcy case is in re: BLACK ELK ENERGY OFFSHORE OPERATIONS,
LLC, et al, Chapter 11, Debtor(s), Case No. 15-34287 (Bankr. S.D.

                      About Black Elk

Black Elk Energy Offshore Operations, LLC, is a Houston, Texas
based privately held limited liability company engaged in the
acquisition, exploitation, development and production of oil and
natural gas properties primarily in the shallow waters of the Gulf
of Mexico near the coast of Louisiana and Texas.

Black Elk had total assets of $339.7 million and total debt of
$432.3 million as of Sept. 30, 2014.

Judge Letitia Z. Paul of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the Southern
District of Texas placed Black Elk under Chapter 11 bankruptcy
protection on Sept. 1, 2015, converting an involuntary Chapter 7
bankruptcy petition by its creditors.  Thereafter, the Company
filed with the Court a voluntary Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. S.D.
Tex. Case No. 15-34287) on Sept. 10, 2015.  

Judge Paul later recused herself from the case and the matter was
given to Judge Marvin Isgur, according to information posted on the
case docket on Sept. 14.

The Debtor was represented by Elizabeth E. Green, Esq., of Baker &
Hostetler.  Blackhill Partners' Jeff Jones served as the Debtor's
Chief Restructuring Officer.  The Debtors hired Ryan LLC as tax
research consultant and Williamson, Sears & Rusnak, LLP as special
counsel.

Judy A. Robbins, U.S. Trustee for Region 7, appointed five
creditors to serve in the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
in the Chapter 11 case of Black Elk Energy Offshore Operations,
LLC.  Okin & Adams LLP is counsel to the Committee.

                        *     *     *

Black Elk Energy Offshore Operations' Third Amended Plan of
Liquidation became effective, and the Company emerged from Chapter
11 protection, according to a report by The Troubled Company
Reporter on July 28, 2016.  The Court confirmed the Plan on July
13, 2016.


BO EX VENTURES: Plan to Pay Unsecured Creditors in Full
-------------------------------------------------------
Bo Ex Ventures, LLC, filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Texas a disclosure statement regarding its
original plan of reorganization dated Feb. 16, 2018.

All Unsecured Claimants within Class 5 will obtain 100% recovery as
follows: (a) the terms of the prepetition, unsecured loan by BBVA
Compass Bank to the Debtor, in the amount of $44,068.62, will be
reinstated in full, with no default, as of the Effective Date; (b)
American Express Bank, FSB will be issued an unsecured promissory
note by the Debtor, in the principal amount of $30,929.54, that
will mature within 90 days after the Effective Date and bear 2.99%
annual interest and be paid in equal monthly installments; and (c)
Grable Martin Fulton will be issued an unsecured promissory note by
the Debtor, in the principal amount of $108,734.83, that will bear
2.99% annual interest and be paid in equal monthly installments of
$3,000 until fully satisfied. The Debtor may, in its sole
discretion, prepay any amount owed to any Creditor in Class 5 prior
to the maturity of any debt created through Class 5. All guarantees
on any prepetition or post-petition loans to the Debtor shall be
canceled and extinguished.

The Debtor believes it has proposed a consensual plan, where the
Debtor's primary stakeholders have agreed to release their claims
against the Debtor, the Principals and the Estate so that the
Debtor's Estate may be administered more efficiently during this
bankruptcy case.

Upon the Effective Date, the Debtor or its officers will continue
to operate the reorganized Debtor as a going concern. The Debtor
will be required to implement the terms of the Plan in full.

Plan, will be bound by the Plans terms.

BREVARD EYE: Wants to Continue Using Cash Collateral Until April 21
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Brevard Eye Center, Inc., and its affiliated debtors seek
authorization from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle
District of Florida for continued use of cash collateral until
April 21, 2018 pursuant to the attached budget and the terms of the
prior order of the Court, and that all of the SummitBridge Matters
be continued to a date prior to April 21, 2018.

The Debtors and secured creditor, SummitBridge National Investments
V LLC, are in a continuing judicial mediation with the Hon. Caryl
E. Delano which mediation concerns the SummitBridge Matters and
other related matters.

At the initial mediation session on February 7, 2018, the Debtors
and SummitBridge agreed to continue all matters set for hearing on
February 21, 2018 in order for the parties to proceed with
mediation.

The Court had scheduled several matters for hearing on February 21,
2018 at 10:00 a.m. which primarily involved SummitBridge:

      (a) Debtors' Motions to Use Cash Collateral;

      (b) Motion by Debtors to Modify Cash Collateral Orders
Regarding Escrow of PostPetition
Taxes (ECF 390);

      (c) Motion by SummitBridge National Investments for
Reconsideration of the Court's December 11, 2017 Order Granting
Motion to Modify Order Regarding Payment of Past Due 401K
Contributions (ECF 393);

      (d) Renewed Motion by SummitBridge National Investments to
Dismiss or Convert Cases;

      (e) Second Motion by Debtors to Extend Exclusivity Period for
Filing a Chapter 11 Plan and Disclosure Statement;

      (f) Status Conference; and

      (g) Pretrial Conference and all deadlines in the related
Adversary Proceeding, Case No. 6:17-ap-00070-KSJ.

Since then, the Debtors and SummitBridge have continued settlement
discussions with Judge Delano and directly with each other. Indeed
discussions are continuing through the evening of February 20,
2018, the evening before the scheduled February 21, 2018 hearings.

Though they say that they are so inclined, unfortunately, the
Debtors have still not received an affirmative, unqualified
representation from SummitBridge regarding continuing the
SummitBridge Matters.

The Debtors believe that there is a reasonable prospect that
SummitBridge will consent to the use of cash collateral pursuant to
the budget attached hereto by or at the hearing on Feb. 21, 2018.

BRUGNARA PROPERTIES: Court Denies Approval of Chapter 11 Plan
-------------------------------------------------------------
For reasons stated on the record at the hearing Judge Dennis

California issued an order disapproving the combined plan and
disclosure statement of Brugnara Properties VI.

Class 2(a) - General Unsecured Creditors will receive 100% of their
allowed claim in two equal monthly installments, the first payment
due on the Effective Date and the second payment due 30 days
thereafter.  Creditors in this class may not take any collection
action against Debtor so long as Debtor is not in material default
under the Plan.

The Debtor has obtained a commitment from Frank Sanders, a lender
who has worked with the Debtor and the Debtor's principal for many
years, to lend the Debtor at least $5,000,000 to pay off the junior
liens against the property once the validity of the nominee tax
liens has been determined.  The loan would be funded within 12
months of the effective date in order to provide for the payment to
creditors by January 31, 2019, as provided in the Plan.  In
addition, Mr. Sanders has agreed to fund a super priority loan of
$600,000 to pay 10% interest to the mortgage creditors for the year
before they are paid off.  Mr. Sanders has worked with the various
Brugnara entities for over 20 years, having made over $200,000,000
in loans to those entities, including over $20,000,000 in loans to
Brugnara Properties VI, all of which loans were repaid.

In addition, the Debtor will receive an infusion of cash from the
Debtor’s principal, Kay Brugnara, if necessary to fund the Plan.
Luke Brugnara II is listing artwork for sale, the proceeds of which
would be given to his mother, Kay Brugnara who will contribute to
the Debtor to fund the Plan.  He has entered into a consignment
agreement with Conn Ryan and Rapid Funding to sell the artwork with
a listing price of $6.6 million.

CARDTRONICS PLC: S&P Lowers CCR to 'BB' on EBITDA Decline
---------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on
Houston–based Cardtronics plc to 'BB' from 'BB+' and revised the
rating outlook to stable from negative.

S&P said, "At the same time, we lowered our issue-level rating on
the company's senior unsecured notes to 'BB' from 'BB+'. The
recovery rating is '4', indicating our expectation of average
recovery (30%-50%; rounded estimate: 45%) in the event of a payment
default.

"We also affirmed our 'BBB-' issue-level rating on the company's
first-lien revolver. The recovery rating is '1', indicating our
expectation of very high recovery (90%-100%; rounded estimate: 95%)
in the event of a payment default. Based on our criteria, at the
rating is capped at 'BBB-', which is why it was only one notch
above the corporate credit rating before this rating action.

"The downgrade of Cardtronics reflects our expectation that EBITDA
will decline in 2018, resulting in adjusted debt to EBITDA
approaching the mid-3x range from the low-3x range as of Dec. 31,
2017 (excluding the impact from the 7-Eleven contract, which
expired in July 2017). Our expectation for EBITDA decline in 2018
is driven by market pricing challenges in Australia and the U.K.
that will pressure pricing in these regions. These events also
highlight the inherent risk in Cardtronics' business model and
increased regulatory scrutiny of ATM surcharge fees that
Cardtronics generates revenue from.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that despite
Cardtronics' revenue and EBITDA declines in 2018 from the loss of
its largest customer and market pricing challenges affecting its
businesses in Australia and the U.K., adjusted debt to EBITDA will
not exceed 4x over the coming year. The outlook also reflects our
expectation that Cardtronics will return to organic EBITDA growth
in 2019 driven by low-single-digit percentage global cash usage and
ATM unit growth and stable to expanding EBITDA margins for the
company.

"We could lower the rating if persistent market pricing and
regulatory headwinds result in substantial EBITDA decline, or if
debt funded M&A or shareholder returns add to debt, such that
leverage increases to over 4x. We could also lower the rating if
cash usage and ATM unit growth turns negative, leading to a
declining addressable market.

"An upgrade in 2018 is unlikely as we expect EBITDA decline to
result in leverage sustained above 3x. Longer term, we could
consider a higher rating if the company can penetrate new growth
channels and grow EBITDA at least the pace of GDP, while sustaining
leverage below 3x."


CARTEL MANAGEMENT: Asks Court to Approve Disclosure Statement
-------------------------------------------------------------
Cartel Management, Inc., and Titans of Mavericks, LLC, filed a
motion asking the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of
California to approve the Disclosure Statement which describes
their Joint Plan Of Reorganization, dated February 21, 2018, as
containing "adequate information" as contemplated by Section 1125
of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtors also ask the Court to schedule the hearing to consider
approval of the disclosure statement for April 4, 2018, at 2:00
p.m.

                     About Cartel Management

Cartel Management, Inc., and Titans of Mavericks, LLC --
http://www.titansofmavericks.com/-- promote, organize and host a
sporting event in "big wave" surfing known as "Titans of Mavericks"
at the Pacific Ocean surf break popularly known as "Maverick's"
located near Half Moon Bay, California.

Cartel and Titans filed Chapter 11 petitions (Bankr. C.D. Cal. Lead
Case No. 17-11179) on Jan. 31, 2017.  Griffin Guess, president of
Cartel, signed the petitions.

At the time of filing, Cartel estimated assets of less than $1
million and estimated liabilities of $1 million to $10 million.
Titans estimated assets of less than $50,000 and liabilities of
less than $500,000.

Judge Deborah J. Saltzman presides over the cases.

The Debtors engaged David L. Neale, Esq., at Levene, Neale, Bender,
Yoo & Brill LLP, in Los Angeles, California, as bankruptcy counsel.
The Debtors tapped Hartford O. Brown, Esq., at Klinedinst PC, as
special counsel in relation to the potential sale of their assets,
and to handle disputes with Red Bull Media House North America,
Inc., and other third parties.  The Debtors also tapped Tyler
Paetkau, Esq., of Hartnett, Smith & Paetkau to represent them on
certain proceedings, including administrative proceedings before
the San Mateo County Harbor District, the California Coastal
Commission, the San Mateo County Planning and Building Department,
and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.


CASELLA WASTE: S&P Raises Corp. Credit Rating to 'B+', Outlook Pos.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings raised its corporate credit rating on Casella
Waste Systems Inc. to 'B+' from 'B'. The outlook is positive.

S&P said, "At the same time, we raised our issue-level rating on
the company's revolving credit facility and term loan to 'BB-' from
'B+'. The '2' recovery rating indicates our expectation for
substantial (70%-90%; rounded estimate: 85%) recovery in a payment
default scenario.

"Additionally, we raised our issue-level rating on Casella's
unsecured notes to 'B-' from 'CCC+'. The '6' recovery rating
indicates our expectation for negligible (0%-10%; rounded estimate:
0%) recovery in a payment default scenario."

The upgrade reflects the notable improvement in Casella's operating
performance over the last year and the corresponding impact on the
company's credit metrics. For the last 12 months (LTM) ended Sept.
30, 2017, revenues increased 5.5% as a result of improved price mix
in Casella's core collection and disposal businesses (which
collectively represent about 70% of total revenues) and stable
landfill volumes. Adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 24.1% over
same period, as the company's ongoing productivity initiatives
(e.g., collection fleet upgrade, route optimization and
rationalization, etc.) and improved operating leverage helped
offset general wage inflation, ramp-up costs associated with the
company's recycling processing upgrade initiative, and raw
materials volatility. These factors resulted in Casella's adjusted
debt to EBITDA improving to 4.4x and funds from operations (FFO) to
debt to 16.7% for the LTM ended Sept. 30, 2017.  

The positive rating outlook on Casella reflects the potential that
we will upgrade the company over the next 12 months. S&P said,
"This incorporates our expectation that continued top-line growth,
combined with better operating leverage, will drive further credit
metric improvements that support a one-notch upgrade. The company
may pursue small bolt-on acquisitions as part of its growth
strategy, but we do not expect it to pursue any opportunities that
would meaningfully weaken its credit measures on a sustained
basis."

S&P said, "We would revise our outlook back to stable if the
company is unable to improve price mix or operating expenses rise
greater than expected, resulting in leverage above 4x. We could
lower our ratings on Casella if a severe economic downturn in the
northeastern U.S. leads to declining disposal volumes, pricing
compression, or weakening operating margins, causing its adjusted
debt to EBITDA to exceed 5x and FFO to debt to fall below 12% for a
sustained period with no foreseeable improvement. We estimate that
this could occur if Casella's sales decline by 800 basis points
(bps) and operating margins decline by 400 bps from our base-case
scenario.

"We could raise our ratings on Casella if continued improvement in
the company's operating performance and a stable debt level cause
its FFO to debt to improve to above 20% and adjusted debt to EBITDA
to fall below 4x on a sustained basis. We estimate that this could
occur if Casella's operating margins rise by 200 bps and sales
volumes remain consistent with our base-case scenario."

CHARLOTTE RUSSE: S&P Hikes CCR to 'CCC' Following Debt Exchange
---------------------------------------------------------------
Charlotte Russe Inc. recently completed what S&P considered a
distressed exchange for all of its previously outstanding $214
million term loan debt, resulting in a new $90 million term loan,
and giving the term loan lenders a majority equity stake in the
company. While the exchange addresses the company's near-term
refinancing risk and reduces the debt load, S&P expects liquidity
to be tight over the next 12 months due to the need to improve
operating performance and free cash flow prospects.

S&P Global Ratings raised its corporate credit rating on Charlotte
Russe Inc. to 'CCC' from 'SD' following the completed debt
restructuring. The outlook is negative.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned a '3' recovery rating and
'CCC' issue-level rating to the company's new $90 million 8.5%
fixed-rate term loan due 2023. The recovery rating of '3' indicates
our expectations for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 50%)
recovery in the event of a default.

"The upgrade follows our reassessment of Charlotte Russe's capital
structure and liquidity position subsequent to its recent debt
restructuring. The completed restructuring agreement meaningfully
reduces the company's debt load, with a new $90 million term loan
replacing the company's previous $214 million of term loan debt.
The transaction results in a much more manageable interest burden
and maturity schedule, with the asset-based lending (ABL) facility
maturing in February 2022 and the term loan maturing in February
2023. In exchange, the term loan lenders received 100% of the
equity of Charlotte Russe, subject to some dilution from the newly
formed management equity incentive plan.

"The negative outlook reflects our expectation that operating
trends will remain weak over the next 12 months given continued
intense competition in the specialty apparel space, lower store
traffic, and our expectation for some disruption in supply chain
related to the uncertainty around the recent financial
restructuring. We think these factors could lead to continued cash
burn in 2018, resulting in reduced availability under the ABL
facility.

"We could lower our ratings if operating trends and liquidity
deteriorate further. This could be the case if significant cash
burn results in additional draws on the ABL facility, causing a
breach of the minimum liquidity covenant or significantly limiting
the company's ability to fund business operations.

"Although unlikely over the next 12 months, we could consider an
upgrade if operating performance is meaningfully better than our
expectations, indicating a sustainable improvement in the Charlotte
Russe's operational effectiveness and competitive standing. Under
this scenario, comparable-store sales would stabilize in
low-single-digit percent area, and adjusted EBITDA margin would
expand about 300 bps above our base-case forecast, resulting in
meaningfully positive free operating cash flow and notably improved
liquidity."


CONDO 64: May Continue Using Cash Collateral Through March 26
-------------------------------------------------------------
Judge James J. Tancredi of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Connecticut has entered a 19th order authorizing Condo
64, LLC, to use cash collateral in the ordinary course of its
business up to the maximum amount of $50,480 to be disbursed for
payment of the expenses incurred for the period commencing Feb. 23,
2018 and continuing through March 26, 2018.

A final hearing on the Debtor's use of cash collateral will be held
on March 19, 2018, at 2:00 p.m.

Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtor was indebted to American
Eagle Financial Credit Union under a certain mortgage loan in the
principal amount of $2,600,000, secured by a first priority
mortgage and assignment of rents on the Property and a security
interest in all of the Debtor's personality. On the Petition Date,
American Eagle asserts the outstanding principal balance was
$2,489,101 with accrued interest of $276,423, together with late
charges, attorneys’ fees, and such other amounts as may be
outstanding under the Loan Documents.

As adequate protection to American Eagle Financial Credit Union for
the Debtor's use of cash collateral and for any diminution in the
collateral, American Eagle is granted, nunc pro tunc to the
Petition Date:

   (a) A continuing post-petition lien and security interest in all
prepetition property of the Debtor as it existed on the Petition
Date, of the same type against which American Eagle held validly
protected liens and security interests as of the Petition Date;
and

   (b) A continuing post-petition lien in all property acquired by
the Debtor after the Petition date. The Replacement Liens will
maintain the same priority, validity and enforceability as American
Eagle's liens on the initial collateral and will be recognized only
to the extent of any diminution in the value of the collateral
resulting from the use of cash collateral pursuant to the Order.

   (c) As further adequate protection to American Eagle, the Debtor
is authorized to pay to American Eagle the sum of $7,500 per month,
which payment will satisfy the Debtor's obligation during the Cash
Collateral Usage Period.

The liens of American Eagle and any replacement thereof pursuant to
the Eighteenth Order, and any priority to which American Eagle may
be entitled or becomes entitled under Section 507(b) of the
Bankruptcy Code, will be subject to and subordinate to:

           (i) amounts payable by the Debtor under Section
1930(a)(6) of Title 28 of the United States Code;

          (ii) amounts due and owing to the Debtor's employees or
contract labor for post-petition wages or services which accrue
during the term of the Nineteenth Interim Order, and

         (iii) for the allowed fees and expenses of Debtor's
retained counsel, Halloran & Sage, LLP, Kevin Mason, Esq., and
accountants (collectively, "Debtor's Professionals"), in an amount
not to exceed $75,000, to be paid from proceeds of American Eagle's
collateral in the event allowed administrative fees of Debtor's
Professionals are not paid or available from cash on hand from the
Debtor's operations, or from the sale or refinance of the Debtor's
property.

COTIVITI CORP: Moody's Hikes Corporate Family Rating to Ba3
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service upgraded Cotiviti Corporation's Corporate
Family Rating ("CFR") to Ba3, from B1, as well as its Probability
of Default rating, to B1-PD, from B2-PD. Moody's also upgraded the
ratings on the company's first lien debt, to Ba3, from B1, and
affirmed its SGL-1 Speculative Grade Liquidity rating. The outlook
remains stable.

Upgrades:

Issuer: Cotiviti Corporation

-- Probability of Default Rating, Upgraded to B1-PD from B2-PD

-- Corporate Family Rating, Upgraded to Ba3, from B1

-- Senior Secured First Lien Bank Credit Facility, Upgraded to
    Ba3 (LGD3), from B1 (LGD3)

Affirmations:

-- Speculative Grade Liquidity rating, Affirmed SGL-1

Outlook Actions:

-- Outlook, Remains Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

Cotiviti's Ba3 CFR reflects the company's solid operating momentum,
very good liquidity, and steady pace of deleveraging in the nearly
two years since its May 2016 IPO. Although Cotiviti has some
customer concentration and modest scale, it has been posting
double-digit-percentage revenue growth over the past several years,
while sustaining EBITDA margins in the high-30%s. Through both
operating growth and applying IPO proceeds towards paying down
debt, Cotiviti has dramatically delevered since the May 2014 merger
of the legacy Connolly retrospective healthcare claims accuracy
business with iHealth Technologies' ("iHealth") prospective claims
accuracy business (the merger created Cotiviti). As of year-end
2017, Moody's adjusted debt-to-EBITDA leverage stood at slightly
below 3.0 time, down by more than half since the 2014 merger.

The Ba3 rating also reflects Moody's expectation that, as a public
company, Cotiviti will operate within a leverage band of
approximately 2.5 to 3.5 times, although it may move temporarily
close to 4.0 times to make tuck-in acquisitions. Given Moody's
expectations for revenue growth of about 8% in 2018 and steady
EBITDA margins, leverage will be about 2.7 times by year-end.
Cotiviti should generate free cash flows representing at least 15%
of debt over the next year, solid even for the upgraded Ba3 rating.
The ratings benefit from Cotiviti's very good liquidity profile
(reflected in the SGL-1 liquidity rating), leading market
positions, and positive fundamentals in the healthcare-recovery
vertical, in which claims volumes and values are expected to grow.
Also supporting the ratings is the reduced influence of Cotiviti's
private equity owners, who currently own about 45% of the company,
an amount that has been declining since the IPO.

The stable ratings outlook reflects the expectation for revenue and
profitability growth driven by the growth of healthcare claims
volumes and values as the U.S. population ages and the costs and
complexity of healthcare continue to rise. The ratings could be
upgraded if Cotiviti continues to deliver growth in its scale while
maintaining profitability, and demonstrates a track record of
conservative financial policies, including reduced PE ownership and
debt reduction such that debt/EBITDA is maintained at about 2.5
times. The ratings could be downgraded if Cotiviti demonstrates
aggressive financial policies; if it loses a significant customer;
if pricing pressure leads to Moody's expectation of ongoing margin
compression; if free-cash-flow / debt falls to the mid-single-digit
percentages, or; if debt/EBITDA holds above 3.5 times for a
prolonged period.

Cotiviti Corporation ("Cotiviti"; formed by Connolly's acquisition
of iHealth in May 2014) is a leading provider of technology-enabled
pre- and postpayment integrity solutions to health insurers and the
CMS, as well as to retail businesses. Moody's anticipates Cotiviti
will generate revenues of approximately $740 million in 2018.
Private equity firm Advent International bought Connolly for a
12-times multiple in mid-2012, and in September 2015 the company
was rebranded as Cotiviti. In late May 2016, Cotiviti launched an
IPO, from which it used nearly all of the net proceeds to pay down
more than $200 million of debt.

COUDERT BROTHERS: Dist. Court Grants Bid to Dismiss Statek Suit
---------------------------------------------------------------
In the case captioned STATEK CORP., Plaintiff, v. COUDERT BROS.
LLP, Defendant, No. 3:07-cv-00456 (SRU) (D. Conn.), Plaintiff
Statek -- a California corporation with principal place of business
in Orange, California--sued its erstwhile law firm, Coudert Bros.
LLP--a New York limited liability partnership--for malpractice
under English law. Statek's claim arises out of Coudert's alleged
failure to transfer certain files from Coudert's London office to
Statek in 1996. Coudert has moved to dismiss for lack of personal
jurisdiction. Because jurisdiction over Coudert is not authorized
by Connecticut's long-arm statute and would not comport with the
requirements of due process, District Judge Stefan R. Underhill
grants Coudert's motion to dismiss.

Coudert has moved to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction,
asserting that jurisdiction over it--"an out-of-state defendant
accused of out-of-state wrongdoing against an out-of-state
plaintiff"--is neither authorized by Connecticut's long-arm statute
nor permitted by the United States Constitution. Statek responds
that "Coudert is subject to personal jurisdiction in Connecticut
because it transacted business within Connecticut by rendering
legal advice to Statek in Connecticut, and because its tortious
conduct caused injury to Statek in Connecticut." Statek also
contends that Coudert either "waived any personal jurisdiction
defense . . . by failing to make a timely motion to dismiss the
state court case," or else "submitted to this Court's jurisdiction"
by "abandoning its personal jurisdiction defense and litigating
this case on the merits since 2008." Coudert denies that it
forfeited its objection to personal jurisdiction, arguing that its
motion was timely filed and that it was not required to "assert[]
this Court's lack of personal jurisdiction" in the bankruptcy
proceedings because "the New York bankruptcy court indisputably has
personal jurisdiction."

After considering the tortuous history of the case, the Court holds
that Coudert did not forfeit its personal jurisdiction defense.
Furthermore, the Court concludes that the court cannot fairly
exercise jurisdiction in Connecticut over Coudert (a
long-since-dissolved New York law firm) on the basis of alleged
malpractice under English law with respect to a client in
California. Therefore, the Court grants Coudert's motion to dismiss
for lack of personal jurisdiction.

CYTORI THERAPEUTICS: Cancels Office Lease Agreement with 6262 Lusk
------------------------------------------------------------------
Cytori Therapeutics, Inc., and 6262 Lusk Investors, LLC, have
entered into an agreement terminating the Lease Agreement, dated as
of Feb. 27, 2017, as amended, between the Company and the Landlord
for approximately 29,499 square feet of office space, effective as
of Feb. 21, 2018.  

The Company, in accordance with the terms of the Termination
Agreement, paid a total termination fee to the Landlord of
approximately $572,000 on the Termination Date, consisting of its
initial rent payment and the amount of the Letter of Credit under
the Lease Agreement, which the Company believes is less than the
potential total lease and operating expense cash obligations that
could have been incurred over one year.  The Company initiated
negotiations with the Landlord to restructure the Lease in
connection with the Company's restructuring announced on Sept. 1,
2017.  The negotiations related to allowing the Company to sublease
part or the entirely of the office space to another tenant in order
to reduce expenses and ongoing obligations, as well as delaying the
commencement date of the Lease.

DISH NETWORK: S&P Cuts CCR to B on Subscriber Losses, Outlook Neg.
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on
Englewood, Colo.-based DISH Network Corp. to 'B' from 'B+'. The
outlook is negative.

S&P said, "At the same time, we lowered our issue-level ratings on
the unsecured debt issued by DISH DBS Corp. to 'B' from 'B+'. The
recovery rating remains '4', indicating our expectation for
meaningful (30%-50%; rounded estimate: 45%) recovery in the event
of a payment default. We also lowered the issue rating on DISH's
convertible notes to 'CCC+' from 'B-'. The recovery rating remains
'6', indicating our expectation for negligible (0%-10%; rounded
estimate: 0%) recovery in the event of a payment default."

The downgrade reflects continued deterioration in DISH's satellite
TV business stemming from heightened competition, shifting consumer
preferences, and mature industry conditions that have resulted in
weaker credit metrics than previously expected. S&P said, "We
currently project satellite TV subscriber losses to continue at the
current rate of about 8%-9% per year, which we do not believe can
be fully offset by growth in marginally profitable Sling TV
subscribers. If this trend continues, cash flow generated by the
pay-TV assets at DISH DBS may not be able to support the current
capital structure at DISH Network longer-term. Still, there are no
near-term liquidity concerns given that Dish can meet its
maturities in 2018 and 2019 with internal cash generation, so we
believe DISH has time to execute its strategy of retaining its most
profitable rural subscribers while growing Sling TV to provide a
deleveraging path."

S&P said, "The negative outlook incorporates the risk that we could
lower the rating further over the next year if operating trends do
not improve or if decisions related to DISH's wireless strategy
harm DISH's credit profile.

"We could lower the rating if leverage rises above 7.0x to fund a
network buildout, or spectrum purchases, without a credible
improvement in DISH's business profile and earnings generation
capabilities. Alternatively, we could lower the rating (potentially
by more than one notch) if DISH were to sell its spectrum assets
and use all of the proceeds for shareholder returns, provided that
fundamentals in the pay-TV business do not improve to allow for a
deleveraging path.

"We could revise the outlook to stable if DISH improves its
satellite TV business and continues to grow Sling TV such that
leverage were to fall below 6.0x with a path for further
improvement. We believe this is possible if DISH can reduce its
satellite TV subscriber declines to 4%-5% per year by lowering
churn to about 1.4%-1.5% per year from 1.78% in 2017.
Alternatively, we could revise the outlook to stable if DISH inks a
wholesale spectrum leasing agreement, or other partnership, with a
wireless carrier that provides a significant and predictable
revenue stream with limited investment going forward. While this
could provide longer-term upside, benefits to DISH's financial
profile would likely take a few years to materialize as the
spectrum gets deployed."


ENERGY FUTURE: Court Approves Plan, $9.45-Billion Sale to Sempra
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Delaware Bankruptcy Court on Feb. 27, 2018, entered an order
confirming the First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization of Energy
Future Holdings Corp., Energy Future Intermediate Holding Company,
LLC, and the EFH/EFIH Debtors.

At a hearing on Monday, the Bankruptcy Court held that it will
confirm the plan of reorganization and approve the merger for
Sempra Energy to acquire Energy Future Holdings Corp. (EFH),
including EFH's indirect, approximate 80% ownership interest in
Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (Oncor).

San Diego-based Sempra Energy is acquiring the stake for $9.45
billion.

On Feb. 15, the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) waived
scheduled hearings and directed PUCT staff to draft a proposed
order approving the merger, for a potential final vote as early as
March 8.  In January, Sempra Energy said it conducted successful
equity and debt offerings to raise funds for the transaction.

Vince Sullivan, writing for Bankruptcy Law360, reports that the
Delaware bankruptcy court overruled objections relating to a $275
million claim reserve fund and asbestos injury claims.

On April 29, 2014, Energy Future Holdings and 70 affiliated
companies sought Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr. D. Del.
Lead Case No. 14-10979) after reaching a deal with some key
financial stakeholders to keep its businesses operating while
reducing its roughly $40 billion in debt.

The Debtors' cases have been assigned to Judge Christopher S.
Sontchi (CSS).

As of Dec. 31, 2013, EFH Corp. reported assets of $36.4 billion in
book value and liabilities of $49.7 billion.  The Debtors had $42
billion of funded indebtedness as of the bankruptcy filing.

restructuring advisor; Sullivan & Cromwell LLC as counsel;
Guggenheim Securities as investment banker; and Kurtzman Carson

Given the size and complexity of the Chapter 11 Cases, the U.S.
Trustee proposed, and the Debtors and the TCEH Committee agreed, to
recommend that the Bankruptcy Court appoint a committee to, among
other things, review and report as appropriate on fee applications
and statements submitted by the professionals paid for by the
Debtors' Estates.  The Fee Committee is comprised of four members:

(the "T-Side Debtors").  The Plan became effective on Oct. 3,
2016.

to acquire Energy Future Holdings, the indirect owner of 80 percent
of Oncor Electric Delivery Company, LLC, operator of the largest

agreement, Sempra Energy will pay approximately $9.45 billion in
cash to acquire Energy Future and its ownership in Oncor, while
taking a major step forward in resolving Energy Future's
long-running bankruptcy case.  The enterprise value of the
transaction is approximately $18.8 billion, including the
assumption of Oncor's debt.

On Nov. 3, 2017, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order closing the
Chapter 11 cases of 40 affiliate debtors.  The claims asserted
against, and interests asserted in, the Closing Cases are
transferred to the lead case of Texas Competitive Electric Holdings

FC GLOBAL: Falls Short of NASDAQ's $1 Bid Price Rule
----------------------------------------------------
FC Global Realty Incorporated, formerly PhotoMedex, Inc., received
written notification from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC that the
closing bid price of its common stock had been below the minimum
$1.00 per share for the previous 30 consecutive business days, and
that the Company is therefore not in compliance with the
requirements for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market
under NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2).  The Notice provides the
Company with an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until Aug.
19, 2018, to regain compliance with the listing rules.  The Company
will regain compliance if the closing bid price of its common stock
is $1.00 per share or higher for a minimum period of ten
consecutive business days during this compliance period, as
confirmed by written notification from NASDAQ.

If the Company does not achieve compliance by Aug. 19, 2018, the
Company expects that NASDAQ would provide notice that its
securities are subject to delisting from the NASDAQ Capital
Market.

The Company said it will continue to monitor the closing bid price
for its common stock and to assess its options for maintaining the
listing of its common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market in light
of this Notice.  The Company will consider all available options to
regain compliance with the minimum bid requirements, including an
application to NASDAQ for an extension of the compliance period or
an appeal to a Hearings Panel should its closing bid price not have
regained compliance during the compliance period.

                     About FC Global Realty

Formerly known as PhotoMedex, Inc., FC Global Realty Incorporated
(and its subsidiaries) re-incorporated in Nevada on Dec. 30, 2010,
originally formed in Delaware in 1980, is a real estate investment
company holding or in the process of acquiring investments in a
variety of current and future real estate projects, including
residential developments, hotels and resort communities and
commercial properties including gas station sites.  The company is

PhotoMedex reported a loss of $13.26 million in 2016 following a
loss of $34.55 million in 2015.  As of Sept. 30, 2017, FC Global
had $14.06 million in total assets, $9.03 million in total
liabilities and $5.03 million in total stockholders' equity.
  
Fahn Kanne & Co. Grant Thornton Israel, in Tel-Aviv, Israel, issued
a "going concern" opinion on the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2016, citing that as of Dec. 31, 2016,
the Company had an accumulated deficit of $115.6 million and
shareholders' deficit of $1.40 million.  Also, during the most
recent periods the Company has incurred losses and negative cash
flows from continuing operations and was forced to sell certain
assets and business units to obtain additional liquidity resources
to support its operations.  In addition, on Jan. 23, 2017, the
Company completed the sale of its consumer products division which
represented the sale of substantially all of the remaining
operations and assets of the Company.  These conditions, along with
other matters, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern.

GEM ACQUISITION: S&P Affirms 'B' ICR, Off CreditWatch Negative
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it affirmed its 'B' long-term issuer credit
ratings on managed care firm Gem Acquisition Inc. and intermediate
holding company GENEX Holdings Inc. (collectively Genex) and
removed them from CreditWatch Negative, where they were initially
placed February 9th . The outlook is stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned Genex's proposed $415
million first-lien credit facility ($50 million revolver due in
2023 and $365 million first-lien debt due in 2025) our 'B' debt
rating with a recovery rating of '3'. We also assigned the proposed
$120 million second-lien term loan due in 2026 our 'CCC+' debt
rating with a recovery rating of '6'.

"Genex's recapitalization and ownership change does not materially
change our view of its credit profile. Leverage increases very
slightly post transaction, but we expect credit protection measures
to remain within our rating expectations."

Stone Point had previously owned Genex from 2007-2014 when Genex
expanded its business services and grew revenues to $395 million
from $189 million. S&P expects no major change in Genex's strategy,
as it believes it will continue to focus on organic growth
opportunities and look for small tuck-in acquisitions that could
complement its current service offering.

S&P said, "The stable outlook on Genex reflects our expectation
that the company will retain its major client base and successfully
integrate newly acquired businesses that will foster steady revenue
growth in the mid-single digits in the next two years. We also
expect EBITDA margins to remain steady in 2018 with leverage in the
6.7x-7.2x range in 2018 and EBITDA coverage above 2x."


GFL ENVIRONMENTAL: Moody's Affirms B2 CFR; Outlook Negative
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed GFL Environmental Inc.'s B2
corporate family rating (CFR), B2-PD probability of default rating,
Ba2 senior secured term loan B ratings, and B3 senior unsecured
notes ratings, and assigned a B3 rating to its proposed $400
million senior unsecured notes. The ratings outlook was changed to
negative from stable.

Net proceeds from the notes issue will be used to repay revolver
drawings (C$210 million), fund acquisitions (C$170 million), and
return excess cash to the balance sheet (C$115 million).

"The outlook is negative because it is likely that leverage
(adjusted Debt/EBITDA) will be sustained above 6x in 2018 (pro
forma 6.4x), which is not in line with Moody's expectation for the
B2 CFR " said Peter Adu, Moody's AVP.

Ratings Affirmed:

Corporate Family Rating, B2

Probability of Default Rating, B2-PD

C$130 million senior secured term loan B due 2023, Ba2 (LGD2)

$370 million senior secured term loan B due 2023, Ba2 (LGD2)

$500 million 9.875% senior unsecured notes due 2021, B3 (LGD5)

$350 million 5.625% senior unsecured notes due 2022, B3 (LGD5)

Rating Assigned:

$400 million senior unsecured notes due 2023, B3 (LGD5)

Outlook:

Changed to Negative from Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

GFL's B2 CFR primarily reflects risks with its aggressive
acquisition growth strategy together with Moody's expectation that
leverage will not improve in the next 12 months (6.4x pro forma for
the proposed refinance transaction and pending acquisitions, and
remaining above 6x in 2018). The rating also reflects the short
time frame between acquisitions and potential for integration
risks, lack of a track record of organic growth, and GFL's
ownership by private equity, which hinders deleveraging and also
creates future event risk with financial policies. The rating
considers the company's diversified business model with high
recurring revenue supported by long term contracts and its good
market position in the stable Canadian non-hazardous waste
industry. The rating also recognizes that the company's EBITDA
margins compare favorably with those of its investment grade rated
industry peers.

GFL has adequate liquidity. The company's sources of liquidity
exceed C$560 million compared to about C$6 million of term loan
amortization in the next four quarters and an estimated C$350
million to fund potential acquisitions. When the refinance
transaction closes, GFL's liquidity will be supported by cash of
C$128 million, expected free cash flow in excess of C$50 million in
the next four quarters (which excludes acquisitions), and about
C$390 million of availability under its C$440 million revolving
credit facility due 2021 (includes $50 million LC facility).
Moody's expects a significant portion of the company's liquidity to
be used to fund future acquisitions. GFL's revolver is subject to
leverage and coverage covenants, which Moody's expects will have at
least 15% cushion through the next 4 quarters. GFL has limited
flexibility to generate liquidity from asset sales as its assets
are encumbered.

The negative outlook reflects Moody's concern with GFL's aggressive
acquisition strategy which may mean that the company will not
delever below 6x nor increase EBIT/Interest coverage above 1x.

The rating could be upgraded if GFL sustained adjusted Debt/EBITDA
towards 4x (pro forma 6.4x for 2017) and EBIT/Interest towards 2x
(0.3x for 2017). Consistent organic revenue growth and maintenance
of good liquidity are added attributes for upgrade consideration.

The rating could be downgraded if adjusted Debt/EBITDA is sustained
above 6x (pro forma 6.4x for 2017) and EBIT/Interest below 1x (0.3x
for 2017). A material decline in GFL's EBITDA margin due to
challenges integrating acquisitions, or negative free cash flow
generation on a consistent basis would also cause a downgrade.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Environmental
Services and Waste Management Companies published in June 2014.

GFL Environmental Inc., headquartered in Toronto, provides solid
waste and liquid waste collection, treatment and disposal solutions
and soil remediation services to municipal, industrial and
commercial customers in Canada. GFL also provides solid waste
collection and commercial recycling services in Southeastern
Michigan. Pro forma for acquisitions, revenue approaches C$1.5
billion. GFL is owned by HPS Investment Partners, Macquarie
Infrastructure Partners, Patrick Dovigi, the founder and CEO, and
certain other minority investors.


GIGA-TRONICS INC: Names Lutz Henckels EVP and Interim CFO
---------------------------------------------------------
Giga-tronics Incorporated has appointed Dr. Lutz P. Henckels as
executive vice president and interim chief financial officer,
effective Feb. 23, 2018.  In conjunction with the appointment of
Dr. Henckels, the Company also announced the departure of Temi
Oduozor, who resigned as controller to pursue a new opportunity,
effective Feb. 23.  As a result of Ms. Oduozor's resignation, Dr.
Henckels will also assume the role of principal financial &
accounting officer until such time as a permanent successor is
appointed.  In his new role, Dr. Henckels will report to the
Company's CEO, John Regazzi, and will be responsible for finance &
administration and fund-raising activities, along with assisting
Mr. Regazzi in other areas as needed.  Dr. Henckels will also
continue to serve as a member of the Company's Board of Directors.

Dr. Henckels, who joined the Company's Board of Directors in 2011,
is a managing member of Alara Capital AVI II, an investor in the
Company.  Dr. Henckels has over 20 years' experience serving as
chief executive officer of both public and private technology
companies including, among others, LeCroy Corporation and most
recently as Chairman and chief executive officer of HiQ Solar, Inc.
Dr. Henckels also holds a Bachelor of Science and Master of
Science in Electrical Engineering and PhD in Computer Science from
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.  Dr. Henckels is also a
graduate of the OMP program of Harvard Business School.

Dr. William Thompson, the Company's Chairman said, "I'm delighted
that a person of Lutz's caliber and experience is joining the
Company in a senior management role on a full-time basis.  He's an
exceptional leader who's also known for his attention to detail and
knowledge in the operational and financial aspects of business,
along with his ability to drive sales."

John Regazzi, the Company's CEO added, "I've appreciated Lutz's
insights and guidance as a board member these past seven years and
I'm excited to now be working with him on a full-time basis and
look forward to his new leadership in finance and fund raising as
well as contributions in other areas of the business."

Dr. Henckels said, "The management team has accomplished a great
deal these past few years, completing the difficult transition from
a General Purpose Test Equipment supplier to a focused Radar/EW
Test solution provider.  With this transition, the Company has
greatly improved its opportunity of higher product gross margins
while significantly reducing its operating expenses."  Dr. Henckels
added, "My focus will be to move the Company forward, developing
strategic partnerships, raising needed capital, and achieving
profitability during our fiscal year 2019 which begins April 1,
2018."

Mr. Henckels' complete compensation has not been finalized,
however, his initial base salary is $200,000 per annum.  Management
expects his compensation to also include equity incentives
commensurate with his position with the Company and eligibility
with other members of the management team to participate in any
performance-based bonuses the Board may authorize.

GTT COMMUNICATIONS: Moody's Puts B2 CFR Under Review for Downgrade
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has placed GTT Communications, Inc. (GTT)
ratings under review for downgrade, including the company's B2
corporate family rating (CFR), B2-PD probability of default rating
(PDR), B1 (LGD3) senior secured rating, and Caa1 (LGD5) senior
unsecured rating. The review was prompted by GTT's agreement to
purchase Interoute Communications Holdings SA (Interoute), a
provider of network and cloud services, for approximately $2.3
billion in cash. GTT will raise approximately $2 billion in new
debt and $250 million of equity to fund the purchase, which
includes repaying Interoute's existing debt. The company expects
the transaction to close in three to six months, subject to
customary regulatory approvals.

Moody's expects leverage will increase to approximately 6.5x
(Moody's adjusted) following deal close, with some subsequent
improvement from growth and cost synergies. This will be above
Moody's prior limit of 5x leverage for GTT's B2 rating. The
transaction will improve GTT's scale and market position as well as
increase its asset coverage which could translate to higher
leverage tolerance. The focus of Moody's review will be the
timeframe required for GTT to reduce leverage back towards 5x and
the potential for the combined and larger entity to support
slightly higher leverage given the improved asset base and scale.
The potential cost synergies and new revenue opportunities from
cross-selling could also partially offset the negative impact of
GTT's incremental debt burden.

On Review for Downgrade:

Issuer: GTT Communications, Inc.

-- Probability of Default Rating, Placed on Review for Downgrade,

    currently B2-PD

-- Corporate Family Rating, Placed on Review for Downgrade,
    currently B2

-- Senior Secured Bank Credit Facility, Placed on Review for
    Downgrade, currently B1 (LGD3)

-- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Placed on Review for
    Downgrade, currently Caa1 (LGD5)

Outlook Actions:

Issuer: GTT Communications, Inc.

-- Outlook, Changed To Rating Under Review From Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

GTT benefits from strong free cash flow and revenue growth
potential driven by a favorable competitive position within its
target market of international network services. The company's low
capital spending of about 5-6% of revenue and improving margin
profile result in meaningful excess cash flows. The company is
challenged by its small scale and improving but still low asset
coverage relative to its debt load. GTT has demonstrated consistent
success to date making relatively small, frequent, and quickly
credit accretive acquisitions. However, this strategy has
contributed to sustained high leverage as cost cutting synergies
lag opportunistic debt issuances, which essentially prefund
to-be-sourced acquisition targets. GTT's ability to successfully
integrate a larger acquisition will likely be difficult, and will
magnify the operational stresses associated with its persistent and
aggressively debt-funded acquisition strategy.

GTT's business model employs an architecture with mostly leased
infrastructure that results in low capital intensity but could
expose the company to margin pressure if end-user pricing and
network leasing cost trends diverge over time. Given this low
capital intensity strategy, Moody's believes GTT currently has
lower leverage tolerance than facilities-based carriers.

The B2 rating could be upgraded if leverage falls below 4x (Moody's
adjusted) and free cash flow to debt exceeds 10%. The rating could
be downgraded if liquidity becomes strained, if free cash flow is
negative or if leverage is sustained above 5x (Moody's adjusted).

The principal methodology used in these ratings was
Telecommunications Service Providers published in January 2017.

Based in McLean, VA, GTT is a multinational Tier 1 internet service
provider offering wide area networking, internet, managed services
and voice services. The company operates a top five ranked global
IP (internet protocol) backbone with over 300 points-of-presence
which connects enterprise and carrier clients to any location in
the world and any application in the cloud. During the 12 months
ended Sept 30, 2017, the company generated $637 million in revenue.


GTT COMMUNICATIONS: S&P Puts 'B' CCR on CreditWatch Negative
------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. internet protocol (IP) network operator GTT Communications
Inc. announced that it has agreed to acquire Interoute
Communications Ltd. for EUR1.9 billion in cash. GTT plans to fund
the EUR1.9 billion purchase price primarily with debt.

S&P Global Ratings placed its 'B' corporate credit rating and all
other ratings on Mclean, Va.-based GTT Communications Inc. on
CreditWatch with negative implications.

The CreditWatch placement follows GTT's announcement that it has
entered into an agreement to acquire London-based fiber and cloud
networking service provider Interoute Communications Holdings Ltd.
(B+/Stable/--) for approximately EUR1.9 billion in cash. GTT plans
to fund the acquisition with a mix of 10% equity and 90% debt. The
equity component consists of $250 million of committed equity
financing from two private investors.

S&P said, "We intend to resolve the CreditWatch when transaction
closes, expected in three to six months. We believe a downgrade, if
any, would be limited to one notch. Our review will focus on the
impact of the proposed acquisition on GTT's credit metrics and its
ability to improve leverage over the next couple of years from cost
synergies, EBITDA growth, and free operating cash flow (FOCF)
generation. Additionally, a potential downgrade would depend on the
company's financial policy and its commitment to debt reduction,
given its history of debt-financed acquisitions."


HERMAN M. & AMANDA: Taps Turner & Johns as Legal Counsel
--------------------------------------------------------
Herman M. and Amanda K. Warner, LLC, seeks approval from the U.S.

firm a retainer in the sum of $5,000.

Brian Blickenstaff, Esq., an associate of Turner & Johns, disclosed
in a court filing that the firm and its members and employees are
"disinterested persons" as defined in section 101(14) of the
Bankruptcy Code.

Turner & Johns, LLC, is the Debtor's counsel.



HIGH LINER: S&P Alters Outlook to Negative & Affirms 'B+' CCR
-------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it revised its outlook on High Liner Foods
Inc. to negative from stable. At the same time, S&P Global Ratings
affirmed its 'B+' long-term corporate credit rating on the company
and its 'B+' issue-level rating, with a '4' recovery rating, on the
company's senior secured term loan. The '4' recovery rating
reflects average (30%-50%; rounded estimate 45%) recovery in
default.

The negative outlook reflects the company's underperformance and
weaker credit metrics in 2017. Decline in High Liner's core product
offerings along with 50% lower EBITDA from the recently acquired
Rubicon Resources LLC business, combined with higher borrowings to
fund working capital at year-end led to leverage increasing to 6x
in 2017, compared with our expectation of the mid-4x area. The
increase in leverage was primarily due to lower plant efficiency
related to closure of the New Bedford facility in 2016, high costs
related to a product recall, along with the company's inability to
meet seasonally heavy demand in the first quarter. In addition,
borrowings on the asset-based loan (ABL) were higher than normal
due to large working capital requirements at year-end. S&P said,
"However, we view most of these events to be one-time in nature and
expect margins will modestly improve in 2018 and that ABL
borrowings will normalize. As a result, under our base-case
scenario we would expect leverage to decline to about 5x in 2018."


S&P said, "We base the negative outlook on our expectation that
High Liner will be pressured to increase its margins to historical
levels due to lower demand in its core breaded and battered
products, rising input costs, and a shifting product mix. This
could lead to weaker-than-expected credit measures and an increased
risk that the company might not recover from its 2017 setbacks.

"We could lower the rating if margins remain at current levels or
deteriorate further, leading to lower debt repayment from free cash
flows and leverage sustained above 5x for the next six to 12
months.

"We could revise the outlook to stable if leverage declines below
4.5x due to significant debt repayment or margin improvement. In
our view, this does not provide High Liner with much room to pursue
growth acquisitions."

Subordinated Notes due 2018 and (ii) cash payments representing

registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, under Section 4(a)(2) thereof.  The New Convertible Notes

"Due to certain developments, including the recent decision by
Target Corporation not to renew the existing Mossimo license
agreement and by Walmart, Inc., not to renew the existing
DanskinNow license agreement with us and our revised forecasted
future earnings, we forecasted that we would be unlikely to be in
compliance with certain of our financial debt covenants in 2018 and
that we may face possible liquidity challenges in 2018.  This
raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern.  Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent
on our ability to raise additional capital and implement our
business plan," said the Company in its quarterly report for the
period ended Sept. 30, 2017.


IHEARTCOMMUNICATIONS: Bondholders Ask NY Court for Injunction
-------------------------------------------------------------
Ed Christman, writing for Billboard.com, reports that a group of
unsecured bondholders that hold more than $200 million in
iHeartCommunications bonds have asked the commercial division of
the New York State Supreme Court to issue an injunction that would
provide a provisional lien against some of the radio chain's
assets.

According to the report, the noteholders claim iHeart has agreed it
would not grant any other creditors a superior position to theirs
without ensuring they were also treated "equally and ratably."

The report notes the so-called legacy bondholders' move was made in
anticipation of an expected Chapter 11 filing from iHeart on or
before March 5.

The report recounts that the legacy noteholders disclosed in their
court filings they have discovered that iHeart for more than six
years has granted superior standing in the form of secured debt to
some other iHeart creditors.  When the legacy noteholders
discovered on Dec. 5, 2017, that iHeart had provided holders hidden
encumbrances to some assets for notes issued as early as 2011
through 2015, they immediately gave notice to iHeart that they
wanted the same standing. But on Feb. 23, the company refused to do
so, according to the complaint.

Gregory Starner and Jason Zakia of White & Case LLP are
representing the legacy noteholders in the complaint.

IHEARTCOMMUNICATIONS: Creditors Receive Offer from Liberty Media
----------------------------------------------------------------
Certain lenders and noteholders of iHeartCommunications, Inc. on
Feb. 26,. 2018, disclosed that, in connection with the discussions
concerning iHeartCommunications's restructuring, the lender and
notholders on Saturday received a term sheet for a restructuring of
the Company from Liberty Media Corporation.

The term sheet, dated Feb. 23, sets forth the principal terms of
the restructuring of iHeartMedia, Inc. and 35 affiliated entities,
including a plan of reorganization to be filed and implemented in
cases to be commenced by the Company under chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code.

Liberty Media proposes to extend $1.159 billion in new Cash
investment in iHeartCommunications, Inc., under a reorganization
plan.  In exchange, Liberty and its affiliate, Sirius XM,
collectively, will receive 40% of the New Common Shares -- 20% of
the New Common Shares shall be held by Sirius and 20% of the New
Common Shares shall be held by Liberty.

Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. shall be spun off in a taxable
transaction.  Parties to cooperate to ensure transaction is taxable
and otherwise done in a tax efficient manner.

The Company and Liberty will enter into an investment and
restructuring support agreement memorializing the terms of
Liberty's new Cash investment in iHeartCommunications.  The
Investment Agreement will provide for, among other things:

     -- an equity commitment fee of 2.0%,

     -- a breakup fee of 3.0%,

     -- a no-shop obligation of the Debtors (subject to a fiduciary
out), and

     -- provisions for the full and prompt payment of the
reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of
Liberty's restructuring advisors.

Liberty has engaged Millstein & Co., KPMG, Baker Botts LLP, and
Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, as advisors in connection with the
Restructuring.

The Investment Agreement will be expressly incorporated into and
made part of the Plan.  The Debtors will file a motion to assume
the Investment Agreement and thereafter use reasonable best efforts
to obtain the Bankruptcy Court's approval of the motion as promptly
as possible.

Liberty is willing to finance working capital needs in chapter 11
through a DIP facility.

Liberty's Term Sheet contemplates that the Chapter 11 Debtors will
enter into a new secured exit financing, with gross proceeds of
$5.250 billion.  Terms of the Exit Financing are to be determined,
but Liberty assumes ~5.2x pro forma net leverage with ~$500 million
of excess cash generated by the Debtors' Radio businesses by end of
2018 to be distributed to holders of Senior Communications Claims
under the Plan.

Liberty wants the Company to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in
March 2018; and consummate the Reorganization Plan no later than
December 21, 2018 and other interim milestones to be negotiated.

Liberty's Term Sheet proposes to restructure iHeartCommunications
obligations, including:

IHEARTCOMMUNICATIONS: Liberty Offer May Fail, Source Tells NY Post
------------------------------------------------------------------
The $1.16 billion offer that Liberty Media extended to
iHeartCommunications' creditors this weekend faces an uphill battle
because it undervalues the owner of 850 stations, a source close to
the situation told New York Post.  The 11th-hour bid is likely to
fall on deaf ears, the source said, according to Josh Kosman,
writing for New York Post.

The source added that if no deal is reached, iHeart is likely to
file for Chapter 11 reorganization on March 3.

A source told NY Post that Liberty's offer values iHeart at $7.5
billion.  That source added that senior creditors of the company,
led by Franklin Resources, believe the radio operator, led by Chief
Executive Bob Pittman, is worth 12% more, or roughly $8.5 billion.

"I don't think Liberty has enough time to get the support they
need," the source told the Post.

The source added that Liberty has not even started speaking to key
creditors yet to gain their support.  "The timing would have been
better had this offer come one month ago," that source said.

"There is a 98 percent chance there will be a bankruptcy," said the
source, who emphasized that it is not what he is hoping for,
according to the Post.

The source also told the Post that Franklin, which is the biggest
iHeart creditor, is offering iHeart's private equity owners -- Bain
Capital and Thomas H. Lee Partners -- about a 1% recovery on their
$4 billion equity investment if they agree to an out-of-court or
prepack restructuring.  The owners instead want about a 4%
recovery.  In a straight-up Chapter 11, the owners will be wiped
out, the Post noted.

"It's hard for me to understand what Bain is doing," the source
said, according to the report.

Bain also held equity investments in Gymboree and Toys R Us, both
of which sought Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2017.

Liberty Media President and CEO Greg Maffei believes in terrestrial
radio, and even if he does not buy iHeart now may bag the company
later in a bankruptcy process, the source told the Post.

In the wake of the offer, iHeart’s $6.3 billion in term loans
rose in value Monday from 75 cents to 78 cents, the Post reports.

JBC STAPLES: Seeks Authority to Use Wells Fargo Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------------------
JBC Staples, LLC, seeks authorization from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Central District of California to use cash collateral
in the ordinary course of its business consistent with the amounts
and for the purposes set forth on the budget.

The cash collateral is allegedly of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as
Trustee for Morgan Stanley Capital I Inc., Commercial Mortgage
Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2007-HQ11, acting by and through
C-III Asset Management LLC, as Special Servicer, (the "Trustee of
Certificate Holder" or "TCH"), as purported assignee of Principal
Life Insurance Company, the Original Lender. TCH asserts an
interest in cash collateral by virtue of a purportedly valid
Assignment of Leases and Rents clause in the Mortgage.

The Original Lender made a loan to the Debtor in the original
principal amount of $2.3 million secured by, among other
instruments, that certain Mortgage dated November 14, 2006,
relating to real property commonly known as 1525 Mall Road, Unit
#1, Monroe, Michigan, 48612.

The Debtor proposes to grant replacement lien only to extent and
validity of prepetition lien and to make monthly adequate
protection payments to TCH in the total amount of $8,800, which
amount consists of interest based on 5% interest on the secured
loan balance of $1.6 million, based on the appraisal, amortized
over 30 years, plus the fixed monthly amount of $2,000.00 toward
principal.

The Debtor agrees that no payments will be made to owners or
officers of the Debtor or to its professionals, unless and until
such professional has had its application for employment approved
by the Court and any such payment is authorized.

The Debtor further agrees that pending further order of the Court,
the debtor-in-possession account established by the Debtor will be
used first to pay the reasonable and necessary expenses of the
business, consistent with the payments set forth on the budget and
next to pay adequate protection payments.  The Debtor also agrees
to provide a report, through its counsel, of the receipts and
disbursements of the business and a variance report comparing the
cash collateral budget to actual figures to TCH by the 15th
business day of each month covering the prior monthly period.

JOHNNY CHIMPO: Obtains Conditional Approval of Disclosure Statement
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Roberta A. Colton of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle
District of Florida issued an amended order conditionally approving
the disclosure statement explaining Johnny Chimpo II, LLC's plan.

                     About Johnny Chimpo II

Johnny Chimpo II, LLC, is a Florida limited liability company doing
business as Bad Willies with its principal place of business in
Tampa, Florida and is currently owned and operated by Lucas Good

KAANAPALI TOURS: Hawaii Court Dismisses Involuntary Ch. 11 Petition
-------------------------------------------------------------------
On Dec. 15, 2017, petitioning creditors, Ashley Olson, Amy
Richards, Shannon Wood, Susan Fernandez, Ken Clark, and Billie
Bell, filed an involuntary bankruptcy petition against Kaanapali
Tours, LLC. Amy Sutherland (one of KTL's two members) has filed a
motion (on behalf of KTL) to dismiss the involuntary petition.
Subsequently, Privacy Charters, LLC3 and Janice Nolan (the other
member of KTL) joined in the petition.

Because every petitioning creditor's claim is subject to a bona
dispute, Judge Robert J. Faris of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Hawaii grants the motion and dismisses the case.

KTL argued that the court should dismiss the involuntary petition
because (a) petitioning creditors are not qualified to file the
petition because their claims are subject to a bona fide dispute;
and (b) the involuntary petition was filed in bad faith.

Section 303 (b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code requires petitioning
creditors to meet the following criteria: (a) minimum of three
petitioning creditors which are holders of claims; (b) the
petitioning creditors' claims must be non-contingent as to
liability or the subject of a bona fide dispute as to liability or
amount; and (c) the petitioning creditors' undisputed and
non-contingent claims must aggregate at least $15,775 above the
value of any liens secured their claims.

HRS section 428-404(b)(2) states that in a manager-managed limited
liability company any matter relating to the business of the
company may be exclusively decided by the manager or, if there is
more than one manager, by a majority of the managers. A majority
vote means a unanimous vote in this case.

HRS section 428-301(b)(3) is the only provision that could arguably
permit Nolan, unilaterally, to borrow money on behalf of KTL. In
this regard, there is at least a bona fide dispute as to whether
Nolan's acts are within "the ordinary course of KTL's business" and
whether petitioning creditors "knew or had notice that Nolan lacked
authority."

Because there are genuine disputes regarding Nolan's authority to
borrow money on behalf of KTL without Sutherland's consent,
petitioning creditors' claims are the subject of a bona fide
dispute and they are not qualified as petitioning creditors under
section 303.

The bankruptcy case is in re: KAANAPALI TOURS, LLC, (Involuntary
Chapter 11), Alleged Debtor, Case No. 17-01296 (Bankr. D. Haw.).

KADMON HOLDINGS: Updated Results from Phase 2 Study of KD025
------------------------------------------------------------
Kadmon Holdings, Inc. announced updated positive results from an
ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial (KD025-208) evaluating KD025, its
Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase 2 (ROCK2) inhibitor, in patients
with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD).  The results were
presented in an oral presentation at the BMT Tandem Meetings in
Salt Lake City.

"KD025 continues to demonstrate a therapeutic benefit in cGVHD,
including in the most severe manifestations of the disease
characterized by end-organ fibrosis," said Aleksandr Lazaryan,
M.D., MPH, Ph.D., assistant professor of Medicine, Division of
Hematology, Oncology and Transplantation, University of Minnesota
and study investigator.  "KD025 was also well tolerated, and many
patients have been able to reduce or discontinue steroids and other
immunosuppressants, thereby helping to avoid their adverse effects
and improve patients’ quality of life."

Updated data from Cohort 2 of the trial (KD025 200 mg BID; n=16)
showed an Overall Response Rate (ORR) of 69%, as of a data cutoff
date of January 3, 2018. Responses in Cohort 1 (KD025 200 mg QD;
n=17) remained the same, showing an ORR of 65%.  Responses were
rapid, with approximately 70% of patients across Cohorts 1 and 2
achieving responses by the first assessment (after 8 weeks of
treatment).  Responses were observed across all affected organs,
including in organs with fibrotic manifestations of the disease
such as lungs, eyes, skin and joints.  In responders with 4 or more
organs involved, 6/13 (46%) showed responses in 4 or more organs.
In addition, 64% of patients were able to reduce steroid dose, and
four patients completely discontinued steroid use. Eighty-three
percent (83%) of patients were able to reduce the dose of
tacrolimus, another immunosuppressive agent used to treat cGVHD.
KD025 was well tolerated, with no drug-related serious adverse
events (SAEs) in either cohort.

"These updated results in cGVHD and recent results in idiopathic
pulmonary fibrosis further demonstrate the activity and
tolerability of KD025 in inflammatory and fibrotic disease
settings," said Harlan W. Waksal, M.D., president and CEO at
Kadmon.  "We look forward to continuing our study of KD025 in cGVHD
and the potential opportunity to offer patients a new therapy for
this disease."

                       About KD025-208

KD025-208 is an ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial of KD025 for the
treatment of cGVHD.  The trial is being conducted in adults with
steroid-dependent or steroid-refractory cGVHD and active disease.
The dose-finding trial includes 48 patients divided into three
cohorts at different dose levels (KD025 200 mg QD, 200 mg BID and
400 mg QD), enrolled sequentially following a safety assessment of
each cohort.  It expects to enroll an expansion cohort of
approximately 40 patients after the optimal dose has been
determined.  In October 2017, KD025 received orphan drug
designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for cGVHD.

                         About cGVHD  

cGVHD is a common and often fatal complication following
hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, a procedure that is often
used to treat patients with cancers such as myeloma or leukemia.
With cGVHD, transplanted immune cells (graft) attack the patient's
cells (host), leading to inflammation and fibrosis in multiple
tissues, including skin, mouth, eye, joints, liver, lung, esophagus
and GI tract.

LAYNE CHRISTENSEN: Inks Merger Agreement with Granite Construction
------------------------------------------------------------------
Granite Construction Incorporated, Layne Christensen Company and
Lowercase Merger Sub Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Granite ("Merger Sub"), entered into an agreement and plan of
merger pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into the
Company, and the Company will be the surviving corporation in the
merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of Granite.  The Boards of
Directors of Granite and the Company have each unanimously approved
the Merger Agreement and the Merger.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective
time of the Merger, each share of the Company's common stock issued
and outstanding at the Effective Time (other than shares (1) held
in treasury of the Company or (2) directly or indirectly owned by
Granite, Merger Sub or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company)
will be cancelled and converted into 0.27 validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable shares of Granite's common stock.  No
fractional shares of Granite's common stock will be issued in the
Merger and the Company's stockholders will receive cash in lieu of
any fractional shares.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective
Time, the Company's outstanding stock options will be cancelled and
converted into the right to receive an amount of cash equal to the
product of (1) the number of the Company's shares issuable upon the
exercise of the Company stock option, multiplied by (2) the excess
value, if any, of the (a) product of (i) the Exchange Ratio,
multiplied by (ii) an amount equal to the average of the
volume-weighted average price per share of Granite's common stock
on the New York Stock Exchange for each of the 10 consecutive
trading days ending with the third trading day immediately
preceding the closing date, and (b) the exercise price of the
Company's stock option.  The Company's outstanding service-based
restricted stock units will be cancelled and converted into the
right to receive an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the
product of (1) the number of the Company's shares in respect of
such restricted units, multiplied by (2) the (a) product of (i) the
Exchange Ratio, multiplied by (ii) Granite Common Stock Price.  The
Company's outstanding unvested performance stock units will vest,
and the underlying number of the Company's shares earned will be
determined, based on the maximum level of achievement of the
applicable performance goals.  The Company's performance stock
units that are vested prior to the Effective Time or vest pursuant
to the Merger Agreement will be cancelled and converted into the
right to receive an amount of cash (without interest) equal to the
product of (1) the number of the Company's shares earned in respect
to the performance stock unit, multiplied by (2) the (a) product of
(i) the Exchange Ratio, multiplied by (ii) Granite Common Stock
Price.

Consummation of the Merger is subject to certain customary closing
conditions, including, adoption of the Merger Agreement by the
Company's stockholders, the absence of certain legal impediments,
and the expiration or termination of the required waiting periods
under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended.

The Merger Agreement also requires the Company to call and hold a
stockholders' meeting and, subject to certain exceptions, recommend
that the Company's stockholders approve and adopt the Merger
Agreement.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Granite will be entitled to
receive from the Company a termination fee of $16,000,000 in the
event that:

   * the Merger Agreement is terminated by the Company prior to
     the Company's stockholders adopting the Merger Agreement in
     order to enter into an agreement relating to a Superior
     Proposal;

   * the Merger Agreement is terminated by Granite because (1) the
     Company Board makes an adverse change in its recommendation
     relating to the vote on the Merger Agreement by the Company's
     stockholders, (2) the Company Board shall (a) not have
     rejected an Acquisition Proposal within seven days of the
     making public thereof or (b) have failed to reconfirm its
     recommendation relating to the vote on the Merger Agreement
     by the Company's stockholders within four days after a
     request from Granite to do so following an Acquisition
     Proposal, or (3) the Company shall have violated in any
     material respect its obligations with respect to the non-
     solicitation of Acquisition Proposals; or

   * the Merger Agreement is terminated (1) by either party
     following the Outside Date, (2) by Granite due to the failure

     of the Company's stockholders to adopt the Merger Agreement,
     or (3) by Granite due to the occurrence of a material adverse

     effect with respect to the Company or a breach by the Company

     of its representations, warranties or covenants in a manner
     that would prevent the closing condition with respect thereto

     from being satisfied, in each case of (1), (2) and (3) above
     if (a) prior to such termination there shall have been an
     Acquisition Proposal for a majority of the outstanding
     capital stock or assets of the Company that is made known to
     the Company or made directly to the Company's stockholders
     generally or any person shall have publicly announced an
     intention to make such an Acquisition Proposal (whether or
     not conditional or withdrawn) and (b) concurrently with such
     termination or within 12 months thereafter, the Company
     enters into an agreement providing for, or consummates, a
     transaction contemplated by an Acquisition Proposal involving

     the sale of a majority of the outstanding capital stock or
     assets of the Company.

In addition, Granite has agreed to appoint a non-employee member of
the Company Board to its board of directors as of the Effective
Time, with such director to be selected by Granite.

                        Voting Agreements

In connection with entering into the Merger Agreement, Granite
entered into the Voting Agreements, with each of the Voting
Stockholders.  Pursuant to the Voting Agreements, the Stockholders
agreed during the Agreement Period to vote their shares of Common
Stock:

   (1) in favor of the Merger and the adoption of the Merger
       Agreement at every meeting of the stockholders of the
       Company at which such matters are considered and at every
       adjournment or postponement thereof;

   (2) in approval of any proposal to adjourn or postpone any
       meeting to a later date if there are not sufficient votes
       to adopt the Merger Agreement;

   (3) any other matter necessary for consummation of the Merger
       considered at any such meeting; and

   (4) against (a) any acquisition proposal, including any
       superior proposal (as such terms are defined in the Merger
       Agreement), (b) any action, proposal, transaction or
       agreement that would reasonably be expected to result in a
       breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any
       other obligation or agreement of the Company under the
       Merger Agreement or of such Stockholder under such Voting
       Agreement, (c) any liquidation, dissolution,
       recapitalization, extraordinary dividend or other
       significant corporate reorganization of the Company, and
       (d) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that
       would reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with,
       delay, discourage, adversely affect or inhibit the timely
       consummation of the Merger or the fulfillment of Granite's
       or the Company's conditions under the Merger Agreement or
       change in any manner the voting rights of any class of
       shares of the Company (including any amendments to the
       Company's charter documents).

If the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with it terms,
the Voting Agreements will also terminate.

Layne Christensen reported a net loss of $52.23 million for the

ended Jan. 31, 2016, and a net loss of $109.3 million for the year

"With respect to our 4.25% Convertible Notes, we have retained
advisors to assist us in evaluating alternatives and raising
capital to refinance or extend our debt to a date beyond October
15, 2019, and eliminate the accelerating maturity provisions of the
8.0% Convertible Notes.  We believe the refinance or extension of
our debt is likely based on current on-going discussions with
existing and new potential lenders, our improving financial
performance and credit quality, and the fact that our stock price
is above the $11.70 conversion price for the 8% Convertible Notes.
Although we believe these refinancing options are viable and
likely, because our plans to refinance or restructure our debt have
not been finalized, and therefore are not in our control (in part,
due to the fact that neither of our Convertible Notes can be
prepaid or have redemption provisions prior to February 2018),
these plans are not considered probable under the new standard.
Consequently, per the standard, these conditions, in the aggregate,
raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern within one year after the date these financial statements
are filed," said the Company in its quarterly report for the period
ended Oct. 31, 2017.


LEARNING CARE: Moody's Lowers CFR to B3; Outlook Stable
-------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded Learning Care Group (US) No. 2
Inc.'s ("LCG") Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to B3 from B2 and
Probability of Default Rating (PDR) to B3-PD from B2-PD. At the
same time, Moody's assigned B2 ratings to the company's proposed
first lien senior secured credit facilities, consisting of a $520
million term loan due 2025 and $75 million revolver due 2023, and a
Caa2 rating to LCG's proposed $160 million second lien senior
secured term loan due 2026. The rating outlook is stable.

In a proposed dividend recapitalization transaction LCG is planning
to fund a $636 million distribution to its existing shareholders,
including the private equity sponsor American Securities, with the
proceeds of new first lien and second lien senior secured credit
facilities and $300 million of perpetual preferred equity
contribution from PSP Investments (PSP). The proceeds from these
instruments and cash on hand will also be used to repay all of the
company's existing outstanding debt (composed of approximately $305
million first lien term loan due 2021).

The rating action reflects the aggressive financial policies of the
company in its willingness to nearly double its funded debt level
for a significant shareholder distribution, which results in
weakening of its credit metrics and a reduction in its financial
flexibility. LCG's pro forma debt to EBITDA (inclusive of Moody's
adjustments) increases by nearly two turns to approximately 5.7x
from 4.0x at December 31, 2017, while EBITDA less capex to interest
coverage declines to 1.1x from 1.6x prior to the transaction. These
metrics include Moody's standard adjustment for operating leases.
Excluding the lease adjustment, the company's pro forma funded
debt-to-EBITDA leverage is estimated at 6.7x. Moody's also expects
the company's free cash flow to weaken from prior levels due to the
additional $20 million in annual interest expense as a result of
the transaction. Additionally, the rating action reflects the event
risk related to the incentive to redeem the perpetual preferred
security given that it is senior to the equity of the existing
sponsor.

The B2 rating on first lien credit facilities reflects their first
priority lien on substantially all assets of the company and its
subsidiaries and benefits from the loss absorption provided by the
second lien debt, rated Caa2, as well as significant unsecured
operating lease obligations.

The following rating actions were taken:

Issuer: Learning Care Group (US) No. 2 Inc.:

Corporate Family Rating, downgraded to B3 from B2;

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

Proposed $75 million Gtd Senior Secured First Lien Revolver due
2023, assigned B2 (LDG3);

Proposed $520 million Gtd Senior Secured First Lien Term Loan due
2025, assigned B2 (LDG3);

Proposed $160 million Gtd Senior Secured Second Lien Term Loan due
2026, assigned Caa2 (LDG5);

The rating outlook is stable.

The existing B1 ratings on the company's first lien term loan due
2021 and revolver due 2019 are not affected and will be withdrawn
upon close of the transaction.

RATINGS RATIONALE

LCG's credit profile reflects: 1) the company's high debt leverage
subsequent to the dividend recapitalization transaction, 2)
aggressive financial policies as reflected in the significant
distribution to shareholders and event risks related to private
equity ownership, 3) the cyclical nature of the childhood education
and care industry, where demand generally varies along with
changing economic conditions and employment levels, 4) industry
reliance on federal and state government funding, and 5) the need
for high capital investments required for refurbishments and
maintenance of the existing center base. The credit profile is
supported by 1) LCG's track record of revenue growth and the
anticipated 12 to 18 months mid-single digits organic growth,
supplemented by acquisitions, 2) Moody's expectation for continued
operating margin improvement through investments in center upgrades
and new locations, operating efficiencies and benefits of scale,
improved utilizations, and pricing and enrollment strategies, 3)
supportive economic fundamentals and employment environment, 4)
favorable long-term demographic trends such as growth in the
childhood population and percentage of dual income families, and 5)
on-going shift towards center-based child care.

LCG has an adequate liquidity position, supported by ample
availability under its new $75 million revolving credit facility
due 2023, a covenant-light credit agreement and a springing net
leverage covenant with respect to the revolver that is only
applicable if the facility utilization exceeds 35% ($26 million),
Moody's expectation for modestly positive free cash flow
generation, and an extended debt maturity profile following the
transaction.

The stable rating outlook reflects Moody's expectation for same
center sales growth in the mid-single digits supplemented by
revenue from center acquisitions and development, and increasing
utilization rates and benefits of pricing strategies and center
upgrades to lead to modest margin improvement.

The ratings could be upgraded if the company demonstrates a track
record of stable revenue and EBITDA growth and improvement in
operating margins, enabling EBITDA less capex to interest coverage
to reach 1.5x and adjusted debt to EBITDA to approach 5.0x. Solid
free cash flow generation resulting in free cash flow to debt in
the mid-single digit range, accompanied by a good liquidity
position, would also be important for a higher rating
consideration.

The ratings could be pressured downward if Moody's expects same
center revenue and enrollment weakness or declines, pricing
pressures or cost increases to result in declining total revenue or
EBITDA. Ratings could also be downgraded if adjusted debt to EBITDA
exceeds 6.5x for a prolonged period. Negative free cash flow
generation, weak liquidity, or additional shareholder-friendly
actions could also pressure the ratings.

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

Learning Care Group (US) No. 2 Inc. is a provider of childhood
education and care services for children between the ages of six
weeks and 12 years. The company operates 910 centers across the
U.S. with about one third of centers located in Texas, California
and Florida. LCG has seven brands, including Childtime, Tutor Time,
The Children's Courtyard, La Petite Academy, Montessori Unlimited,
Everbrook Academy and Creative Kids Learning Centers, and has a
licensed capacity to serve approximately 125,000 children. The
company is owned by American Securities LLC. In the last twelve
months ended December 31, 2017, LCG generated approximately $915
million in revenues.


LEARNING CARE: S&P Lowers CCR to 'B-' on New Debt-Funded Dividend
-----------------------------------------------------------------
U.S.-based early childhood education provider Learning Care Group
(US) No. 2 Inc. plans to issue a $755 million senior secured debt
facility, comprising a $75 million first-lien revolving credit
facility, a $520 million first-lien term loan, and a $160 million
second-lien term loan. The company will use the proceeds, along
with proceeds from a $300 million preferred equity investment, to
pay a $636 million dividend to its financial sponsor, American
Securities LLC, refinance existing debt, and pay related
transaction fees.

S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on
U.S.-based early childhood education provider Learning Care Group
(US) No. 2 Inc. to 'B-' from 'B+'. The rating outlook is stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned our 'B-' issue-level
rating on the company's proposed $75 million senior secured
first-lien revolving credit facility due 2023 and $520 million
senior secured first-lien term loan due 2025. The '3' recovery
rating indicates our expectation for meaningful recovery (50%-70%;
rounded estimate: 60%) of principal for lenders in the event of a
payment default.

"We also assigned our 'CCC' issue-level rating and '6' recovery
rating to the company's proposed $160 million senior secured
second-lien term loan due 2026. The '6' recovery rating indicates
our expectation for negligible recovery (0%-10%; rounded estimate:
0%) of principal for lenders in the event of a payment default.

"We will withdraw our existing issue-level and recovery ratings on
the company's debt once the transaction closes.

"The downgrade reflects our estimate that Learning Care's large
$636 million debt-financed dividend will cause pro forma
lease-adjusted debt leverage (which includes our $300 million
preferred perpetual equity debt adjustment) to jump above 7x at the
transaction's closing from 4x as of Dec. 30, 2017, and reported
free operating cash flow (FOCF) to debt to fall to less than 2%.

"We also expect that the company will use excess cash flow to
invest in growth initiatives, rather than debt repayment, causing
leverage to remain elevated in the high-6x area over next 12
months. The increased interest burden will likely strain the
company's cash flow over the next two years and increase its
vulnerability to cyclical economic swings.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that the company's
leverage will decline to the mid-6x area over the next 12 months,
it will generate mid- to high-single-digit revenue and EBITDA
growth, and its FOCF will be modest as it reinvests to fund
growth.

"We could lower our corporate credit rating on Learning Care if the
company's operating performance weakens, resulting in FOCF
approaching breakeven levels. This could occur if employment trends
unexpected reverse, resulting in lower enrollment and insufficient
cash flow to fund the company's capital spending requirements and
debt service.

"Although unlikely over the next 12 months, we could consider an
upgrade if we project sustained reported FOCF of around $50 million
and expect debt balances to decline. This could occur if the
company's operating performance continues to improve due to
successful new center opening and increased center utilization."

Under the Plan, the Debtor will utilize primarily the following
resources to fund the Debtor's obligations under the Plan: (a)
proceeds from the continued rental of the Real Property, (b)
proceeds of the loan from the DIP Lender; and (c) the "new value"
that already has been contributed by the Debtor's equity holder in
excess of $19,000 during the pendency of this case.

The Debtor has revived LTD Management, Inc. with the New Hampshire
Secretary of State which revival became effective December 19, 2017
by: filing the missing annual reports since administrative
dissolution; paying the required outstanding fees and charges; and
filing the application for revival. The New Hampshire Secretary of
State's online records show that LTD Management, Inc. is in good
standing. Also, the Reorganized Debtor has been in communication
with the State of New Hampshire regarding the environmental issues
on the Real Estate.  The Reorganized Debtor will provide access to
the State of New Hampshire for the removal of three underground
storage tanks ("USTs") from the Real Estate. The UST removal work
will be conducted by State of New Hampshire contractors. The New
Hampshire Department of Environmental Services believes that there
are three USTs partially on the property and partially on the
abutting property because imaging equipment has indicated that they
are there. Removal of the USTs will be at no cost to the Debtor,
the cost to be borne by a fund administered by the State. If upon
access to the site the existence of the USTs is confirmed, there is
an MTBE cleanup fund available to pay for the necessary soil
remediation. The Debtor's expense will be a $5,000 deductible that
the Debtor will be allowed to pay over time -- up to five years.
The Debtor believes, based on extensive discussions with John
Pasquale of the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services,
that the $5,000 deductible is likely the full extent of its
financial liability related to the environmental conditions.

The Secured Claim of the Town of Raymond (Class One) will be paid
in full on or about the Effective Date of the Plan via a
Debtor-in-Possession ("DIP") loan. The loan extended by the DIP
lender will be secured by a priming mortgage on the Real Estate at
4% over 15 years with principal and interest payments being due on
the 15th day of each month. The estimated amount owed to the Town
of Raymond is $48,000. Thus, the estimated monthly payment to the
DIP lender will be $355, as compared to the monthly payment of
$1,219 that would be required to the Town of Raymond if the
interest rate continued at 18%. The DIP loan, therefore, helps the
Plan achieve feasibility and also serves as protection to those
holding junior liens as it reduces the rate at which interest would
accrue in the event of a default. The DIP lender will record a
mortgage at the Rockingham County Registry of Deeds along with a
copy of the Confirmation Order as evidence of its priming lien.

The Secured Claim of TD Bank, N.A. ("TD") (Class Two) will be paid
in full according to the terms of a modification to the existing
promissory note to be executed by the Reorganized Debtor before the
Effective Date. The loan will be amortized over twenty (20) years
at a fixed interest rate of 6%. The Debtor's payment obligations to
TD in relation to TD Bank, N.A.'s Allowed Secured Claim will
continue to be secured by the mortgage which was recorded at the
Rockingham County Registry of Deeds at Book 3811, Page 1033. It
will enjoy second priority position, immediately junior to the DIP
priming lien. TD is fully secured and, therefore, payment in the
manner described shall constitute payment in full of any and all
amounts owed to TD as of the Petition Date. The existing security
agreements and mortgage shall survive confirmation and shall secure
the modified promissory note subject only to the priming lien of
the DIP lender.

The Secured Claims of the Internal Revenue Service (Class Three and
Class Five) for Tax Years 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 are
secured via separate IRS tax liens that were recorded at Book 4943,
Page 020; Book 5435, Page 2204; Book 5479, Page 1297 and Book 5694,
Page 2816. They are deemed fully secured. The Allowed Class Three
and Class Five Claims shall be paid as provided herein. The total
Allowed Claim under Class Three and Class Five shall be paid with
4% interest via monthly payments over the 60 months following the
Effective Date of the Plan. The tax liens shall survive
confirmation and shall be released consecutively when the tax debt
associated with each is paid in full through the Plan.

The mortgage-related Claim of NFC (Class Four) is secured by a
mortgage in the amount of $150,000 that was recorded at the
Rockingham County Registry of Deeds at Book 5237, Page 1255; it
comes after the first IRS lien but before the other IRS liens. It
is deemed fully secured. Said Claim shall be paid pursuant to a
promissory note the terms of which shall be agreed to by the Debtor
and NFC and assumed by the Reorganized Debtor (the "Note") in the
principal amount of $150,000. Payments on the Note shall begin on
the thirtieth (30th) day following the Effective Date. The Note
will include provisions such as late fees and collection provisions
usual and customary in the industry outside of bankruptcy, the
exact terms of which will be agreed upon by NFC and the Debtor
before the Effective Date. The Debtor proposes to pay the Claim of
$150,000 at 6% interest over 20 years.

The attachment-related Secured Claim of NFC (Class Six ) is
purportedly secured by an attachment recorded at the Rockingham
County Registry of Deeds at Book 5701, Page 0541. The attachment is
recorded after the last of the IRS liens. The total amount due as a
Secured Claim under Class Five shall be based upon the Allowed
Secured Claim to the extent provided in 11 U.S.C. Section 506(a) of
the Bankruptcy Code. Thus, the total estimated amount of Claim Five
is $60,109. Claim Five shall be paid according to a promissory note
in the amount of $60,109 the terms of which shall be agreed upon by
NFC and the Debtor at 6% over 20 years and shall be paid in monthly
installments beginning on the thirtieth (30th) day following the
Effective Date.

NFC also will hold an Unsecured Claim (Class Seven) consisting of
the amount owed to NFC which, pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 506 of
the Bankruptcy Code, is not secured by the NFC attachment. Debtor
asserts that the amount of this Claim is $33,922.2 It shall be
treated as a general Unsecured Claim under the Plan.

MANN REALTY: Double M Objects to Disclosure Statement
-----------------------------------------------------
Double M Real Estate, LLC, and Martin L. Grass and Mark G. Caldwell
t/a Double M Development, object to the adequacy of the Amended
Disclosure Statement explaining Mann Realty Associates, Inc.'s plan
of reorganization, complaining, among other things, that the
valuation of the various parcels of real estate are totally
unsupported by any professional opinions other than that of the
principal of the Debtor.

To the extent that, later in the document, the Amended Disclosure
Statement represents that a Realtor has been retained to sell 11 of
the 12 properties belonging to the Debtor, there is no reference to
what that Realtor believes these properties are worth or that the
values reflected by the principal of the Debtor are agreed to by
the Realtor, Double M tells the Court.  This still leaves the
possibility that these properties are improperly valued with no
professional support and that the representations made by the
Amended Disclosure Statement and the Plan of Reorganization are
wrong, Double M points out.

Furthermore, Double M complains that the Debtor alleges that it
believes that the schedules are "reasonably accurate" even though
it acknowledges that the schedules differ from the Proofs of Claim
that have been filed in this case. Without being sufficiently
specific, this representation is misleading as it fails to signify
specifically with which claims there may be some disagreement,
Double M asserts.

MEDICAL SOLUTIONS: S&P Affirms 'B' CCR on PPR Holding Acquisition
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B' corporate credit rating on
Medical Solutions Parent Holdings Inc. The outlook is stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we affirmed our 'B' issue-level rating
on subsidiary Medical Solutions Holdings Inc.'s first-lien credit
facility, which consists of the upsized $55 million revolver and a
$350 million term loan (sum of the existing $210 million term loan
and $140 million fungible incremental term loan). The recovery
rating is '3', indicating our expectation for meaningful recovery
(50%-70%; rounded estimate: 50%) in the event of payment default.

"In addition, we affirmed our 'CCC+' issue-level rating on
subsidiary Medical Solutions Holdings Inc.'s $65 million
second-lien credit facility. The recovery rating is '6' and
indicates our expectation for negligible recovery (0%-10%; rounded
estimate: 0%) in the event of payment default."

The affirmation reflects the acquisition of PPR, which enhances the
company's size and market share in the travel nursing space.
However, these qualities are somewhat offset by integration risk
and the lack of diversity from its current business lines.  Also,
the benefit of expansion into the post-acute care space is
uncertain given potential margin pressure being passed through from
skilled nursing facilities. As such, this acquisition does not
change the fundamentals of the business.

S&P said, "The stable outlook reflects our expectation that,
despite positive EBITDA growth and steady cash flow generation, the
company's adjusted debt leverage will remain above 5x given the
aggressive financial policies and investment objectives of the
private equity sponsor.

"We could lower the rating if Medical Solutions experiences an
unforeseen operating issue that results in meaningful customer
losses, weakened business from extended economic downturn and a
sharp contraction in EBITDA that leads to a reduction in free cash
flow generation to negligible levels. This scenario would entail a
gross margin contraction of about 400 basis points against our 2018
base-case scenario.

"Although unlikely over the next one to two years, we could raise
the rating if we expect the company to sustain leverage below 5x
and FFO to total debt of above 12%, though we would likely view any
improvement in credit metrics as temporary given our view that the
company's financial sponsor ownership would be supportive of
aggressive financial policies."


MESOBLAST LIMITED: Primary Endpoint Achieved in Cell Therapy Trial
------------------------------------------------------------------
Mesoblast Limited announced that the Phase 3 trial of its
allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell product candidate MSC-100-IV
(remestemcel-L) in children with steroid refractory acute Graft
versus Host Disease (aGVHD) has successfully met the primary
endpoint of Day 28 overall response (OR, complete + partial
response) rate.  

In the 55 children enrolled in Mesoblast's open-label Phase 3 trial
conducted across 32 sites in the United States, the Day 28 OR rate
was 69%, a statistically significant increase compared to the
protocol-defined historical control rate of 45% (p=0.0003).

Among patients who received at least one treatment infusion and
were followed up for 100 days (n=50), the mortality rate was 22%.
This is in contrast to Day 100 mortality rates as high as 70% in
patients who fail to respond to initial steroid therapy1,2,3.

The treatment regimen of remestemcel-L was well tolerated and the
incidence of adverse events was consistent with that expected from
the underlying disease state and in line with previous
remestemcel-L use.  

These safety and efficacy results are consistent with Mesoblast's
prior experience using remestemcel-L in 241 children treated under
an expanded access protocol, where Day 28 OR correlated with Day
100 survival4.

The Phase 3 study results were presented at the tandem annual
scientific meetings of the Center for International Blood & Marrow
Transplant Research (CIBMTR) and the American Society of Blood and
Marrow Transplantation (ASBMT) being held in Salt Lake City from
February 21-25, 2018.  Full results for this ongoing trial will be
provided in CY Q2 2018.

The Phase 3 trial's senior investigator, Dr Joanne Kurtzberg,
Jerome Harris Distinguished Professor of Pediatrics and Director of
the Pediatric Blood and Marrow Transplant Program at Duke
University Medical Center, said: "These children are a very
challenging patient population as they suffer from a particularly
aggressive and life-threatening disease for which there are
currently no available treatments.  We are now seeing that children
who receive remestemcel-L can have significant overall response
rates and reduced early mortality.

"We are delighted that Mesoblast has attained such an important
milestone towards delivering a potentially effective treatment for
this very serious and life threatening condition."

There are currently no products approved in the United States for
treatment of steroid-refractory aGVHD.  Given the serious nature of
this condition, in 2017 the United States Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) granted Mesoblast Fast Track designation for
the use of remestemcel-L to achieve improved overall response rate
in children with aGVHD.

Based on interactions with the FDA, Mesoblast believes that
successful results from the completed Phase 3 trial, together with
Day 180 safety and quality of life parameters in these patients,
may provide sufficient clinical evidence for filing for accelerated
approval of remestemcel-L in the United States.  The Phase 3 trial
is being conducted under a FDA Investigational New Drug Application
(NCT#02336230).

Mesoblast Chief Executive Dr Silviu Itescu stated: "These are
tremendous results that show the potential of our cell therapies to
make a substantial difference in the treatment of patients with
serious and life threatening diseases.  They are a testament to the
capabilities and expertise of the entire clinical, regulatory and
manufacturing teams at Mesoblast."

RATINGS RATIONALE

"The positive outlook is prompted by the settlement agreement
approved earlier this month by the Mississippi Public Service
Commission (MPSC) that resolved the outstanding cost recovery
issues associated with the Kemper County generation facility," said
Michael G. Haggarty, Associate Managing Director. "Although the
agreement materially lowered Mississippi Power's revenue
requirements for the natural gas combined cycle portion of the
Kemper facility, it should allow the utility to gradually improve
its cash flow coverage metrics, assuming its regulatory environment
recovers from the adverse impact of the Kemper construction
project," added Haggarty. Moody's will monitor Mississippi Power's
future rate proceedings, regulatory treatment, and financial
performance, including an evaluation of its high reserve margins,
which the MPSC has required it to file by August 2018, to determine
if the utility's financial recovery will be sustained.

The settlement agreement was the culmination of months of
negotiations following the MPSC's June 2017 order halting
construction of the Kemper Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle
(IGCC) plant, authorizing its operation as a natural gas combined
cycle plant only, and encouraging a rate reduction for the
utility's residential customers, who pay some of the highest rates
in the region. Despite that order, Mississippi Power initially
proposed that its rates remain unchanged, filing for an annual
revenue requirement of $126.4 million -- the same amount that had
been in place since the Kemper natural gas combined cycle units
originally came into service in 2014, a return on equity (ROE) of
9.33%, and amortization of Kemper regulatory assets over 20 years.

The Mississippi Public Utilities Staff (MPUS) did not agree to or
sign off on the utility's proposal, partly due to their and the
MPSC's expressed desire for a residential rate reduction.
Mississippi Power argued that alternative settlements proposed by
the Staff and others would create a continuous, annual financial
drain on the utility; require a fundamental change in the utility's
business, and place its operations at risk. Moody's believe that
Mississippi Power's high customer rates (approximately 40% higher
than neighboring Entergy Mississippi's retail residential rates),
in a service territory with below average economic demographics and
excess reserve margins in the 50% range, all played a role in the
efforts by the Staff to try to mitigate the impact of the Kemper
natural gas plant on customer rates as much as possible.

The final settlement agreement ultimately agreed to by the Staff
and approved on February 6, 2018 provided for a rate reduction,
authorizing an annual revenue requirement of only $99.3 million,
down from an earlier, amended settlement agreement amount of $112.6
million, with the most recent decrease implemented solely to
account for the impact of federal tax reform legislation. On
February 7, 2018, Mississippi Power revised its annual Performance
Evaluation Plan ("PEP") filing for 2018 to reflect the impact of
this tax reform legislation, requesting an increase of $26 million
in annual revenues, based on a performance adjusted ROE of 9.33%
and an increased equity ratio of 55%, which will be addressed by
the MPSC over the next several months.

The final Kemper settlement included a lower fixed ROE of 8.6% for
2018, excluding any performance adjustment, and a 2019 ROE
calculated in accordance with the utility's PEP filing, again
excluding any performance adjustment, with the latest PEP filing
requesting an ROE of 9.33%. For future years, a performance based
ROE will be calculated pursuant to the PEP. The amortization of
regulatory assets was shortened to 8 years from the utility's
initially proposed 20 years. Because the settlement reflected a
disallowance of some of Mississippi Power's investment in the
Kemper natural gas combined cycle portion of the plant, both
Mississippi Power and parent Southern Company (Baa2 negative) took
an additional charge of approximately $78 million pre-tax ($48
million after-tax).

Although the settlement agreement resolves the Kemper cost recovery
uncertainty, the Ba1 CFR incorporates Moody's view that the
materially lower revenues being collected by Mississippi Power will
slow the utility's financial recovery and may challenge its ability
to sustain a CFO pre-working capital to debt ratio in the mid-teens
going forward. Moreover, the contentious nature of the settlement
negotiations, the inability of Mississippi Power and the MPUS to
reach a settlement earlier, and the strong position of both the
MPSC and the MPUS that the utility's high rates needed to be
reduced and reserve margins needed to be addressed, all point to a
regulatory environment that been seriously affected by the failed
Kemper IGCC project. It will likely take some time for the
regulatory relationship to return to its previously credit
supportive posture.

The downgrade of Mississippi Power's Speculative Grade Liquidity
Rating to SGL-4 from SGL-3 reflects the utility's weak liquidity,
with $900 million of unsecured bank term loans coming due in just
over one month on March 31, 2018. The utility does not have the
resources to pay off these term loans on a stand-alone basis and
expects to refinance them with external debt issuances and/or
borrowings from banks or the Southern parent company. Mississippi
Power's December 31, 2017 audited financial statements contemplate
the continuation of the utility as a going concern due to the
parent company's anticipated ongoing financial support. Mississippi
Power has been informed by Southern that the parent will provide it
with loans and/or equity to fund debt maturities and cash needs
over the next 12 months. This has been the case throughout the
Kemper construction period with Southern last making a $1 billion
capital contribution to Mississippi Power in June 2017.

At December 31, 2017, Mississippi Power had $248 million of cash on
hand, up slightly from $231 million at September 30, 2017. The
utility maintains $100 million of bank credit facilities that
expire in December 2018, of which none was drawn and $40 million
provided liquidity support to variable rate pollution control
revenue bonds. There is no material adverse change clause in its
bank credit facilities that could prevent borrowings but there are
covenants that limit debt levels to 65% of total capitalization as
defined in the agreement. As of December 31, 2017, the utility was
in compliance with this covenant.

Rating Outlook

The positive outlook on Mississippi Power is prompted by the
resolution of Kemper cost recovery issues provided by the recent
settlement agreement approved by the MPSC. Despite the material
rate reduction incorporated in the settlement, it should permit the
utility to gradually improve its financial performance, assuming
the regulatory environment fully recovers from the negative Kemper
construction experience and future rate proceeding outcomes are
credit supportive.

Factors That Could Lead to an Upgrade

An upgrade could be considered if there is evidence that the
regulatory environment has become more credit supportive; if future
rate proceedings are constructive, including its recently revised
PEP filing for federal tax reform; if the utility completes and
files a reserve margin plan as requested by the MPSC; and if it
exhibits an improvement in financial performance, including a ratio
of CFO pre-working capital to debt ratio comfortably above 13% on a
sustained basis.

Factors That Could Lead to a Downgrade

A downgrade is less likely give the positive outlook and the
resolution of the Kemper plant cost recovery uncertainty. However,
the outlook could revert to stable or a downgrade could occur if
the regulatory environment does not become more credit supportive;
if the utility's liquidity position does not improve materially
from its current high reliance on short-term financing, including
the imminent refinancing of its upcoming $900 million term loan
maturity; if Southern parent company support for Mississippi Power
unexpectedly diminishes; or if financial metrics remain weak,
including CFO pre-working capital to debt below 13%.

Electric and Gas Utilities published in June 2017.

is a regulated utility subsidiary of The Southern Company, a
utility holding company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia.

NAVIDEA BIOPHARMACEUTICALS: Settles Dispute with Sinotau
--------------------------------------------------------
Navidea Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., has entered into a settlement
agreement and mutual release with Beijing Sinotau Medical Research
Co., Ltd., pursuant to which both companies agreed to stipulate to
the voluntarily dismissal of all claims against each other with
prejudice.  The agreement also contained a mutual release of
claims.

Navidea and Sinotau, a Chinese pharmaceutical company, were
previously engaged in an ongoing dispute relating to rights for the
Tc 99m tilmanocept product in China and other claims.

                          About Navidea

Navidea Biopharmaceuticals, Inc., is a biopharmaceutical company
focused on the development and commercialization of precision
immunodiagnostic agents and immunotherapeutics.  Navidea is
developing multiple precision-targeted products based on its
Manocept platform to help identify the sites and pathways of
undetected disease and enable better diagnostic accuracy, clinical
decision-making, targeted treatment and, ultimately, patient care.

As of Sept. 30, 2017, Navidea had $22.60 million in total assets,
$6.59 million in total liabilities and $16.01 million in total
stockholders' equity.

For the year ended Dec. 31, 2016, Navidea reported a net loss of
$14.31 million compared to a net loss of $27.56 million for the
year ended Dec. 31, 2015.

"Based on our current working capital and our projected cash burn,
including the potential for the Company to pay up to an additional
$7 million to CRG depending upon the outcome of the Texas
litigation, management believes that the Company will be able to
continue as a going concern for at least twelve months following
the issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  Our projected
cash burn also factors in certain cost cutting initiatives that
have been implemented and approved by the board of directors,
including reductions in the workforce and a reduction in facilities
expenses.  Additionally, we have considerable discretion over the
extent of development project expenditures and have the ability to
curtail the related cash flows as needed.  We believe all of these
factors are sufficient to alleviate substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern," stated the
Company in its quarterly report for the period ended Sept. 30,
2017.


NEW ENTERPRISE: Moody's Rates Proposed $450MM Sr. Secured Notes B2
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B2 rating to New Enterprise
Stone & Lime Co., Inc.'s proposed $450 million of senior secured
notes due 2026. At the same time, the Corporate Family Rating was
affirmed at B3, the Probability of Default Rating at B3-PD, and the
senior unsecured notes were affirmed at Caa2. The rating outlook
was revised to positive.

These rating actions follow New Enterprise's announcement that the
company intends to offer $450 million of senior secured notes due
2026. The proceeds from the new secured notes, along with revolver
(unrated) borrowings and cash on hand, will be used to refinance
the existing $450 million term loan (unrated) and pay
transaction-related fees and expenses.

Assignments:

Issuer: New Enterprise Stone & Lime Co., Inc.

-- Senior Secured Regular Bond/Debenture, Assigned B2 (LGD3)

Affirmations:

Issuer: New Enterprise Stone & Lime Co., Inc.

-- Probability of Default Rating, Affirmed B3-PD

-- Corporate Family Rating, Affirmed B3

-- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Affirmed Caa2 (LGD5)

Withdrawals:

Issuer: New Enterprise Stone & Lime Co., Inc.

-- Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, Withdrawn , previously
    rated SGL-3

Outlook Actions:

Issuer: New Enterprise Stone & Lime Co., Inc.

-- Outlook, Changed To Positive From Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

The outlook revision to positive from stable reflects improvement
in the company's construction end markets and adjusted EBIT to
interest coverage. New Enterprise's adjusted operating margin also
continues to improve. For the 12 months ended November 30, 2017,
adjusted operating margin improved to 12.2% from 11.7% at FYE 2017
and 8.7% at FYE 2016. The company's adjusted EBIT interest coverage
is now 1.3x following many years of weakness below 1.0x. Moody's
expect further improvement in these metrics in FY 2019. Over the
longer term, Moody's expect the company to benefit from improvement
in broader public construction spending, both at the federal level
and to a lesser extent at the state level. The outlook also assumes
the company will make progress in driving adjusted debt-to-EBITDA
closer to 5.0x by FYE 2019.

The B3 Corporate Family Rating reflects the company's modest scale,
seasonality of its business, limited geographic diversification,
exposure to cyclical construction end markets, concentration of
business with Pennsylvania DOT, and high financial leverage. The
rating, however, is supported by the company's good liquidity,
strong position in its core markets, stable construction spending,
improving operating margin, and prudent acquisition and growth
strategy.

New Enterprise has a good liquidity position reflecting its free
cash flow generation, modest cash balances and availability on its
$105 million ABL facility (unrated), offset by high working capital
needs and limited alternate liquidity sources as all assets are
fully encumbered. At November 30, 2017, the company had $7.7
million of unrestricted cash balance and had approximately $72
million available and no borrowings under its ABL credit facility.
New Enterprise has no debt maturities until July 2022 when its ABL
facility and $200 million senior unsecured notes mature. Under its
ABL, New Enterprise is subject to a springing fixed charge coverage
ratio if its total excess liquidity is at any time less than $10.5
million. The company would remain subject to the springing fixed
charge coverage ratio until its excess liquidity is above $12
million for 30 consecutive days. Moody's expect the company to
remain in compliance with an adequate cushion through fiscal year
2019.

An upgrade would be predicated upon New Enterprise generating
sustained free cash flow, increasing adjusted EBIT-to-interest
above 1.5x, and reducing adjusted debt-to-EBITDA closer to 5.0x.
Sustaining adjusted operating margin above 10% would also support a
ratings upgrade.

The ratings would likely be downgraded if the company were to
experience a decline in profitability, stemming from a reversal in
construction spending or operational challenges. The ratings could
also be downgraded if adjusted debt-to-EBITDA leverage increase to
over 7.0x, if adjusted EBIT-to-interest expense is sustained below
1.0x, or if liquidity deteriorates.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Building
Materials Industry published in January 2017.

New Enterprise Stone & Lime, Co., Inc. ("New Enterprise") is a
privately held, vertically-integrated construction materials
supplier, heavy/highway construction contractor, and traffic safety
services and equipment provider. The company operates three
segments: construction materials, heavy/highway construction and
traffic safety services and equipment. New Enterprise operates,
owns or leases 56 quarries and sand deposits (42 active), 30 hot
mix asphalt plants, 19 fixed and portable ready mixed concrete
plants, three lime distribution centers and three construction
supply centers. The company also conducts operations through four
manufacturing facilities and a number of sales offices for its
safety services and equipment business. New Enterprise's operations
are primarily concentrated in Pennsylvania and Western New York,
with reach into the adjacent states including Maryland, West
Virginia, and Virginia. New Enterprise's traffic safety services
and equipment business sell products nationally and sells services
primarily in the eastern United States. For the 12 months ended
November 30, 2017, the company generated $650 million in revenue
and $125 million in adjusted EBITDA.

NORTHERN OIL: Narrows Net Loss to $9.2 Million in 2017
------------------------------------------------------
Northern Oil and Gas, Inc., announced 2017 fourth quarter and full
year results and provided 2018 guidance.

Northern recorded a net loss of $9.2 million on $209.31 million of
total revenues for 2017, compared to a net loss of $293.49 million
on $144.90 million of total revenues for 2016.  In 2017, the net
loss was impacted by a loss on the extinguishment of debt, legal
settlement with the Company's former chief executive officer, and a
non-cash loss on the mark-to-market of derivative instruments. In
2016, the net loss was impacted by the non-cash impairment of oil
and natural gas properties and a non-cash loss on the
mark-to-market of derivative instruments.

Northern recorded a net loss of $23.8 million, or a loss of $0.37
per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2017, compared to a
net loss of $12.3 million, or a loss of $0.20 per diluted share,
for the fourth quarter of 2016.  The net loss in the fourth quarter
of 2017 was impacted by a non-cash loss on the mark-to-market of
derivative instruments of $33.6 million that was partially offset
by a $1.6 million income tax benefit.

"Strong fourth quarter results, including 9.3% sequential
production growth, provided an excellent finish to the year and
outstanding momentum as we enter 2018," commented Northern's
Interim President, Brandon Elliott.  "We are seeing excellent
results from wells added to production during 2017, suggesting
significant upside to the value from enhanced completions that
resides within the entirety of our acreage position.  Our
investment approach and our Williston Basin asset base, combined
with the steps we are taking to strengthen our balance sheet, are
setting the stage for us to accelerate our growth strategy as the
natural consolidator of non-operated working interest in the
Williston Basin."

At Dec. 31, 2017, Northern had available liquidity of approximately
$202.2 million, comprised of $102.2 million in cash on hand and
$100 million of delayed draw term loan availability.

As of Dec. 31, 2017, Northern Oil had $632.25 million in total
assets, $1.12 billion in total liabilities and a total
stockholders' deficit of $490.84 million.

                        2018 Guidance

Northern is raising guidance and now expects 2018 total annual
production to increase by 16 - 20% over 2017 levels, based on the
expectation of adding between 20 and 22 net wells to production
during the year.  Due to winter weather and the potential for road
restrictions during the spring, net well additions are expected to
be weighted to the second half of 2018.  Capital expenditures are
expected to total between $165 - $180 million.  This budget is
comprised of $152 - $167 million in drilling and completions
capital assuming the addition of 20 - 22 net wells to production
during the year and approximately $13 million in workover, acreage
and other capitalized costs.

Minnetonka, Minnesota-based Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. --

company with a core area of focus in the Williston Basin Bakken and

                          *     *     *

In December 2017, Moody's Investors Service affirmed Northern Oil
and Gas, Inc.'s (NOG) 'Caa2' Corporate Family Rating (CFR), Caa2-PD
Probability of Default Rating (PDR), and 'Caa3' senior unsecured
notes rating.  NOG's Caa2 CFR reflects its high leverage, weak
asset coverage of debt (under 1x), modest scale and Moody's
expectations that NOG's cash flows will continue to be challenged
through 2018.

In February 2018, S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit
rating on Northern Oil and Gas Inc. to 'CC' from 'CCC+'.  The
downgrade follows the announcement that Northern Oil and Gas has
entered into a privately negotiated agreement to exchange $497
million of its 8% senior unsecured notes due 2020 ($700 million
total outstanding) for $344 million of new 8.5% second-lien notes
due 2023 and $155 million in equity.

NUVISTA ENERGY: S&P Assigns 'B' CCR & Rates New Unsec. Notes 'B+'
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it assigned its 'B' long-term corporate
credit rating to Calgary, Alta.-based NuVista Energy Ltd. The
outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'B+' issue-level
rating and '2' recovery rating to NuVista's proposed C$150 million
senior unsecured notes due 2023. The '2' recovery rating indicates
our expectation of substantial (70%-90%; rounded estimate 85%)
recovery in S&P's hypothetical default scenario.

S&P said, "The ratings reflect our view that NuVista has a
relatively small daily production level and proved reserves base,
as well as high geographic and product concentration. Moreover,
what we consider NuVista's less-than-adequate liquidity limits the
rating, because the company fully relies on the 364-day revolving
credit facility to bridge the gap between funds from operations
(FFO) and capital spending. We assume the company will continuously
extend its revolving credit facility maturity to support its
capital expenditure plan during the next 12 months.

"The company's good market diversification, a good cost profile,
and average profitability compared with that of its North American
peers partially offset these weaknesses. In addition, we expect
that NuVista will continue reporting strong credit ratios, with
forecast two-year (2018-2019) weighted-average FFO-to-debt of
40%-60%, led by production growth, high exposure to condensates,
and competitive cost profile. We forecast negative free operating
cash flow (FOCF) in the next two years based on capital
expenditures of C$270 million-C$310 million in 2018 to boost daily
production.  

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that NuVista's
increased production and cash flow growth will meet our base-case
scenario resulting in two-year (2018-2019), weighted-average
FFO-to-debt of 40%-60% and negative FOCF. The outlook further
reflects our expectation that the company will continuously extend
its revolving credit facility maturity to support its capital
spending plan.

"We could take a negative rating action if NuVista's liquidity
deteriorates due to lower-than-expected FFO generation, which could
result in sources over uses of cash below 1x; or if the company
does not extend its revolving credit facility maturity in the next
12 months to support its capital spending plan.

"We could take a positive rating action if NuVista improves
liquidity profile reaching and maintaining sources over uses of
cash above 1.2x in the next 12 months. We could also take a
positive rating action if the company materially increases its
average daily production and PD reserve ratio to levels more
comparable with those of higher-rated peers."

PIN OAK: Trustee Seeks Additional 120 Days to File Chapter 11 Plan
------------------------------------------------------------------
Robert L. Johns, the Chapter 11 Trustee in the case of Pin Oak
Properties, LLC, requests the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of West Virginia to provide the Debtor an
additional 120 days to file a proposed Plan of Reorganization.

Pursuant to Section 1121(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtor may
exclusively filed a plan of reorganization up until 120 days after
the date of the order for relief, but the Court previously extended
the period by 120 days to March 1, 2018. However, the Trustee does
not anticipate filing a proposed Plan by March 1.

The Trustee was just recently been appointed in this case and has
been diligently working to determine how best to administer this
case for the benefit of the estate and creditors of the estate. The
Trustee has met with interested parties, including the principal of
the Debtor, representatives of the primary secured creditor and the
assistant U.S. Trustee. Currently, the Trustee is still evaluating
potential restructuring of the Debtor's debts, as well as a
possible sale under Section 363 in lieu of reorganization.

Accordingly, the Trustee believes good cause exists for the Court
to grant his request and further increase the exclusivity period by
an additional 120 days to provide the Trustee the opportunity to
file a viable Plan capable of acceptance and consummation.

QUAD/GRAPHICS INC: S&P Affirms 'BB-' CCR, Outlook Stable
--------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB-' corporate credit rating on
U.S.-based commercial printer Quad/Graphics Inc. The rating outlook
remains stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we affirmed our 'BB-' issue-level
rating and '3' recovery rating on the company's senior secured
credit facility. The '3' recovery rating remains unchanged,
indicating our expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded
estimate: 60%) recovery in the event of a payment default.

"We also affirmed our 'B' issue-level rating and '6' recovery
rating on the company's senior unsecured notes. The '6' recovery
rating remains unchanged, indicating our expectation for negligible
(0%-10%; rounded estimate: 0%) recovery in the event of payment
default.

"The rating affirmation reflects our view that the U.S. printing
industry is in secular decline, Quad's product end-markets face
intense pricing pressure, and its leverage is significant in the
mid-to high-2x range, given the challenging business environment.
These factors are only partially offset by Quad's leading market
position as the second-largest U.S. commercial printer, its good
margin stability, and its good free operating cash flow (FOCF) to
debt in the mid- to low-20% range.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that Quad will
maintain FOCF to debt in the mid- to low-20% range, leverage in the
mid-to-high-2x area, and adjusted EBITDA margins in the 10% area,
despite our base-case forecast that its organic revenue will
decline at a mid-single-digit percentage rate in 2018. We also
expect that Quad will continue to effectively manage its costs and
capital investment to maintain its healthy free cash flow
generation.

"We could lower the corporate credit rating if we believe Quad will
likely maintain FOCF to debt below 15% and leverage above 3.5x.

"This could result from mid- to high-single-digit percentage
revenue declines or EBITDA margin declines due to the difficulties
reducing costs in line with revenue declines. Furthermore, we could
lower the rating if covenant cushion declines below 15% or if the
company pursues a large-debt financed acquisition that results in a
sharp increase in leverage. If the secular decline of the industry
accelerates we could reassess our downside scenario.

"We could raise the rating if the company stabilizes and grows
organic revenue while continuing to lower leverage. Under this
scenario, we would be more confident that growth in the company's
multichannel marketing revenues and EBITDA generation could offset
print revenue declines."

RAND LOGISTICS: Plan Confirmation Hearing Continued to Feb. 28
--------------------------------------------------------------
Vince Sullivan, writing for Bankruptcy Law360, reports that a
decision from a Delaware bankruptcy judge on the Chapter 11 plan
confirmation of Rand Logistics will have to wait a day after the
court on Feb. 27 said it needed to take some time to consider
objections raised by the U.S. government to the short-track plan
process.

On Feb. 27, a hearing to consider, among other things, entry of an
order confirming the Debtors' Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of
Reorganization and approving the Disclosure Statement for the
Debtors' Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization was
held before the Hon. Brendan L. Shannon, Chief United States
Bankruptcy Judge, in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware.  At the Combined Hearing, the Court directed
that a telephonic hearing with respect to the Court's ruling on
entry of the DS Approval/Confirmation Order will be held on Feb. 28
at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) before the Court.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter, the Debtors' Joint
Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization has been extensively
negotiated with and has the support of the agent and sole lender
under the Second Lien Credit Agreement, Lightship Capital LLC.

The Debtors are pleased to report that after extensive, good-faith
and arm's-length negotiations with Lightship Capital, the Plan
embodies a settlement among the Debtors and their key stakeholders
on a consensual deleveraging transaction which provides for the
implementation of a restructuring through an expedited chapter 11
process.

The key terms of the Plan include, without limitation, the
following:

   (a) Payment in full, in the ordinary course of business, or
reinstatement of allowed Class 5 General Unsecured Claims,
including those held by trade vendors, suppliers and customers;

   (b) Payment in full, in cash, of all Allowed Administrative
Claims, Allowed Professional Fee Claims, Allowed Priority Tax
Claims, Allowed Statutory Fee Claims, Allowed DIP Claims, Allowed
Other Priority Claims and Allowed Other Secured Claims;

   (c) Payment in full, in Cash, of all Allowed First Lien Claims;

   (d) Conversion of Allowed Second Lien Claims into 100% of the
New Common Stock, subject to dilution on account of the Equity
Incentive Program, resulting in the elimination of approximately
$92 million of debt;

   (e) Cancellation of the Existing Preferred Shares and the
Existing Common Shares;

   (f) Entry into the Exit Facility Credit Agreement to ensure
adequate liquidity at exit; and

   (g) Prompt emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases.

Overall, the Plan is designed to augment the Debtors' liquidity,
continue the Debtors' operations with minimal disruption, preserve
the going-concern value of the Debtors' business, maximize
recoveries for stakeholders and protect the jobs of the Debtors'
employees.

RAPID AMERICAN: Bid for Protective Order to Quash Subpoenas Nixed
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Plaintiffs in the adversary proceeding captioned RAPID-AMERICAN
CORPORATION, THE OFFICIAL COMMITTEE OF UNSECURED CREDITORS, AND
LAWRENCE FITZPATRICK, THE FUTURE CLAIMANTS' REPRESENTATIVE,
Plaintiffs, v. TRAVELERS CASUALTY AND SURETY COMPANY, ST. PAUL FIRE
AND MARINE INSURANCE COMPANY, AND NATIONAL UNION FIRE INSURANCE
COMPANY OF PITTSBURGH, PA, Defendants, Adv. No. 15-01095 (SMB)
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y.) seek a protective order under Rule 26 of the
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure quashing six identical non-party
subpoenas served on separate facilities that process the personal
injury claims asserted against and administered by asbestos trusts.
The insurer defendants oppose the motion. Bankruptcy Judge Stuart
M. Bernstein sides with the defendants and denies the Plaintiffs'
motion.

The Plaintiffs have failed to demonstrate standing to challenge the
Subpoenas. The Subpoenas are directed at the Claims Processing
Facilities, and the information the Subpoenas seek relates to other
cases in which Rapid's creditors may have asserted personal injury
asbestos claims. The Subpoenas do not seek any information in which
the Plaintiffs have a protectable interest, and the Plaintiffs do
not suggest that the Claims Processing Facilities have any such
information. Furthermore, the Plaintiffs cannot circumvent the
limitation on their standing by moving for a protective order under
Rule 26 rather than to quash the Subpoenas under Rule 45.

The Plaintiffs assert that the discovery sought via the Subpoenas
is not relevant to any claim or defense in this adversary
proceeding.  According to the Plaintiffs, "even if a number of the
Underlying Claimants did, in fact, enter into settlements with
other manufacturers of alleged asbestos-containing products and/or
the trusts that administer their assets, such payments have no
relevance to resolving the legal issues in this case, i.e., the
Insurers' obligations to Rapid." The Plaintiffs also assert that
the information sought through the Subpoenas is not proportional to
the needs of the case and that allowing the Subpoenas to go forward
would burden the parties, the Claims Processing Facilities and the
Court. Although the discussion of standing disposes of the motion,
the Court concludes, in the alternative, that the Subpoenas are
relevant and impose no burden on the Plaintiffs.

personal injury claims arising from plaintiffs' exposure to
asbestos-containing products sold by The Philip Carey Manufacturing
Company -- Old Carey -- as that entity existed prior to June 1,
1967.

Rapid-American filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in
Manhattan (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 13-10687) on March 8, 2013, to
deal with debt related to asbestos personal-injury claims.

RAYONIER ADVANCED: S&P Affirms 'BB-' CCR, Outlook Still Positive
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB-' corporate credit rating on
specialty pulp producer Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. The
outlook is positive.

S&P said, "At the same time, we affirmed the 'BB-' issue-level
rating on the $550 million senior unsecured notes due 2024 ($506
million outstanding) issued by Rayonier A.M. Products Inc. The
recovery rating on the notes remains '3', indicating our
expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 50%)
recovery to creditors in the event of a payment default."

S&P Global Ratings' affirmation of its 'BB-' corporate credit
rating on RYAM reflects its view that current leverage measures of
about 4.1x debt to EBITDA are in line with the 'BB-' rating
following RYAM's acquisition of Canadian pulp, paper, and wood
products producer Tembec.

S&P said, "Our positive outlook reflects the possibility that we
will raise our rating on Rayonier Advanced Materials to 'BB' over
the next year if it is able to successfully integrate its
acquisition of Tembec while reducing debt leverage to approximately
3.5x by the middle of 2019.

"We could raise our ratings on Rayonier to 'BB' by mid-2019 if debt
leverage decreased to 3.5x or below through cost savings and
projected synergies from the Tembec acquisition. For this to occur,
we estimate EBITDA margins would have to average about 19%, which
would require about $25 million of EBITDA improvement from pro
forma levels. This could occur from a combination of acquisition
synergies (RYAM predicts $75 million over three years) or about a
5% improvement in total pulp volumes or prices.

"Based on the current economic outlook and our base case scenario,
we view a negative rating action as unlikely in the next 12 months.
However, we could revise our outlook on RYAM to stable in that
timeframe if Rayonier's debt-to-EBITDA leverage remained at or
above 4x, which we believe could occur if it does not achieve
expected EBITDA levels due to lower-than-expected merger synergies
or operating outages or if its cellulose and commodity products
underwent demand and price pressure." Failure to reach expected
EBITDA levels could also occur in the event of unexpected wide
foreign exchange swings or volatile commodity costs and pricing in
RYAM's markets.


RE/MAX LLC: S&P Affirms BB Corp. Credit Rating on Earnings Release
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB' corporate credit rating on
Denver, Colo.-based RE/MAX LLC and removed it from CreditWatch,
where we had placed it with negative implications on Nov. 6, 2017.
The rating outlook is stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we affirmed our 'BB+' issue-level
rating, with a recovery rating of '2', on the company's senior
secured debt issues, which include a $10 million revolving credit
facility due 2021 and a $235 million senior secured term loan due
2023. The '2' recovery rating indicates our expectation for
substantial recovery (70% to 90%; rounded estimate: 70%) of
principal in the event of a payment default.

S&P said, "We affirmed the 'BB' corporate credit rating despite
RE/MAX's special committee of independent directors concluding the
transactions consisting of gifts and a loan of personal funds from
David Liniger to Adam Contos constituted violations of RE/MAX's
policies. While we believe this personal loan creates a conflict of
interest between the chairman and founder David Liniger and current
CEO Adam Contos, we believe that the company has taken steps that
are likely sufficient to mitigate the impact of this conflict.
These steps include amending the company's bylaws and appointing a
lead independent director to serve as the primary interface between
the board and the CEO and to lead the independent directors'
evaluation of the CEO's effectiveness and the compensation
committee. The special committee also identified instances of
noncompliance with other company policies related to workplace
conduct by Liniger. He was allowed to remain on the board as
non-executive chairman and we assume that his undisclosed actions
are not detrimental to the company's reputation.

"The stable outlook reflects our belief that the U.S. residential
real estate market will continue to improve and that RE/MAX will
make financial policy decisions around investment and acquisition
spending and shareholder returns that will enable it to maintain
adjusted debt to EBITDA below 3.5x and FFO to adjusted debt above
20%--providing a cushion in the event of an economic downturn.
Additionally, the stable outlook reflects our belief that the
company has engaged in sufficient actions, with the establishment
of the lead independent director position and the amendment of the
company's bylaws, to ensure a sufficient level of management
oversight.

"We could lower the rating if operating performance at RE/MAX
underperforms our expectations and we believe the company will
sustain adjusted debt to EBITDA higher than 3.5x and FFO to
adjusted debt below 20%. We could also lower ratings if additional
improper acts are disclosed and we lower our view of management and
governance at RE/MAX.

"Although unlikely given RE/MAX's financial policy of permitting
gross leverage up to 4x, we could raise the rating by one notch if
we become confident that RE/MAX is willing to sustain adjusted debt
to EBITDA of around 2.5x and FFO to adjusted debt above 30% over
the economic cycle, including potential acquisitions and
shareholder returns."


REAM PROPERTIES: Order Holding R. Pauletta in Civil Contempt Upheld
-------------------------------------------------------------------
In the case captioned REAM PROPERTIES, LLC, v. THOMAS AND THERESA
HAMILTON. APPEAL OF: ROBERT L. PAULETTA, JR., No. 323 MDA 2017 (Pa.
Super.), Appellant Pauletta, the sole member of the limited
liability corporation Ream Properties, LLC (Ream), appeals from
orders entered on August 12, 2015 and Feb. 10, 2017 in the Court of
Common Pleas of Dauphin County that held him in civil contempt for
repeatedly attempting to serve as Ream's legal counsel in
contravention of several court directives. The Hamiltons have moved
to quash the appeal. The Superior Court of Pennsylvania grants in
part and denies in part the Hamiltons' motion to quash and affirms
the order of the Court of Common Pleas.

This Court exercises jurisdiction over timely appeals from
appealable orders. A contempt order such as the one issued on
August 12, 2015 that not only finds contempt but also imposes
sanctions is appealable. To establish jurisdiction in this Court, a
litigant must file his notice of appeal within 30 days of the entry
of the order from which the appeal is taken.

Here, the suggestion of bankruptcy made clear that Ream, not
Appellant, was the party that sought protection under Chapter 11 of
the Bankruptcy Code. As such, the automatic stay did not extend to
Appellant and the trial court had authority to find him in contempt
on August 12, 2015. Under these circumstances, it follows that the
automatic stay did not toll the period during which Appellant could
appeal the trial court's ruling. Accordingly, because Appellant
filed his notice more than 30 days following entry of the August
12, 2015 order, the appeal from that order is untimely and subject
to quashal.

In his second claim, Appellant asserts that the trial court wrongly
held him in contempt in its Feb. 10, 2017 order without following
proper procedures or conducting a full hearing that would have
allowed him the opportunity to present evidence regarding the
merits of the contempt finding. This claim is frivolous.

Even in the absence of a transcription of the Feb. 10, 2017
proceedings, the Court is satisfied that the trial court correctly
determined that Appellant acted in defiance of several court orders
of which he was intimately aware. Based upon our review of the
record and the submissions of the parties, it is clear that
Appellant received notice of the Feb. 10, 2017 hearing and appeared
with counsel. While represented, Appellant agreed to the court's
contempt finding as part of a resolution of the litigation against
the Hamiltons. In addition to the numerous filings Appellant made
on behalf of Ream, other portions of the record support the court's
contempt finding. In his June 18, 2015 objections to Thomas and
Theresa Hamilton’s motion to dismiss, Appellant confirmed his
prior noncompliance with orders entered by the trial court and
professed his intention to continue defying the court's orders.
There is ample support in the record before us that Appellant
lacked any evidence that would have countered the trial court's
contempt finding. Hence, no relief is due on Appellant's second
claim.

REIGN SAPPHIRE: Reports Issuance of Shares, Notes and Warrants
--------------------------------------------------------------
Reign Sapphire Corporation entered into a securities purchase
agreement with respect to the sale and issuance of (i) 416,666
shares of the Company's Common Stock; (ii) 1,500,000 redeemable
shares, (iii) $147,000 aggregate principal amount of a convertible
promissory note and (iv) Common Stock Purchase Warrants to purchase
up to an aggregate of 980,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.
The transaction closed on Feb. 20, 2018.

Terms of Notes

The Note matures on Nov. 16, 2018, nine months after the Issue
Date, and provides for interest to accrue at an interest rate equal
to 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law
after the occurrence of any event of default as provided in the
Note.  At any time after 180 days from the Issue Date, the holder,
at its option, may convert the outstanding principal balance and
accrued interest into shares of Common Stock of the Company.  The
initial conversion price for the principal and interest in
connection with voluntary conversions by a holder of a Note is
$0.08 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein.  The
Note, for example, is subject to adjustment upon certain events
such as stock splits and if the Company issues any securities with
more favorable terms than are described in the Note, the holder
may, at the holder's option, become a part of the more favorable
transaction documents.  The Note also contains a prepayment penalty
of a maximum of 130% of the amount outstanding under the Note.  The
holder of the Note does not have the right to convert any portion
of their Note if it (together with its affiliates) would
beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the
exercise, with the exception that the limitation may be increased
up to 9.99% with 61 days prior notice. On Feb. 20, 2018, the
Company entered into an Amendment to the Note, which changed all
references to the 4.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 9.99%.
The Note includes customary events of default, including, among
other things, payment defaults, covenant breaches, certain
representations and warranties, certain events of bankruptcy,
liquidation and suspension of the Company's Common Stock from
trading.  If such an event of default occurs, the holder of the
Note may be entitled to take various actions, which may include the
acceleration of amounts due under the Notes and accrual of
interest.

If the Note is prepaid on or prior to the Maturity Date, all of the
Redeemable Shares shall be returned to the treasury shares of the
Company, without any payment by the Company for the Redeemable
Shares.  Further, if the Company prepays a portion of the Note, but
not the entire Note, on or before the Maturity Date, a pro rata
portion of the Redeemable Shares shall be returned to the Company's
treasury in proportion to the prepayment amount as it relates to
the entire Note balance.

Terms of Warrants

Holder of the Note received Warrants to purchase up to 980,000
shares of Common Stock.  The exercise price for the Warrants is
$0.15, subject to adjustment, and the Warrants are exercisable for
five years after the date of the Warrant.  The Warrants are
exercisable for shares of Common Stock upon the payment in cash of
the exercise price and they are also exercisable on a cashless
basis at any time if the market price of one share of common stock
is greater than the Exercise Price, and there is no effective
registration statement registering the shares of Common Stock
underlying the Warrants.  The exercise price of the Warrants is
subject to adjustment in the event of any distributions of assets,
including cash, stock or other property to the Company's
stockholders.  In the event of a fundamental transaction, as
described in the Warrants and generally including any
reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of the Common
Stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the Company's properties or assets, the
Company's consolidation or merger with or into another person, the
acquisition of more than 50% of the outstanding Common Stock, or
any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the
voting power represented by the outstanding Common Stock, the
holders of the Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise
of the Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other
property that the holders would have received had they exercised
the Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. The
holder of Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion
of the Warrant if the holder (together with its affiliates) would
beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the
exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance
with the terms of the Warrants, with the exception that the
limitation may be waived with 61 days prior notice.

accumulated deficit at Dec. 31, 2016 and 2015, recurring net
losses, and a working capital deficit at Dec. 31, 2016 and 2015,
which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern.

assets, $5.11 million in total liabilities and a total
shareholders' deficit of $2.98 million.


REMINGTON OUTDOOR: Creditors Said to Be Looking for Buyers
----------------------------------------------------------
Laura J. Keller, writing for Bloomberg News, reports that creditors
that are planning to seize control of Remington Outdoor Co. will
almost immediately be looking for a buyer for some or all of the
Company's assets, according to people with knowledge of the plan.
The sources asked not to be identified because the discussions are
private.

The group has already received some expressions of interest from
potential corporate buyers, although no formal sales process has
begun, one of the people said, according to the report.

The report notes that lenders including Franklin Resources Inc. and
JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s asset management arm will become owners of a
reorganized Remington as part of a plan they reached this month
with the company and its private equity owner, Cerberus Capital
Management.  Remington and its creditors are planning a quick trip
through bankruptcy court that would seek a judge's approval just 45
days after the Chapter 11 filing, which is expected to happen by
March 7, according to documents posted on the company's website.

Representatives for Cerberus, Franklin, and JPMorgan declined to
comment, while Madison, North Carolina-based Remington didn't
immediately respond to a request for comment.

Remington missed a coupon payment owed on a $550 million term loan
early in February.  Under the restructuring agreement reached on
Feb. 11, the creditors, which also include Lord Abbett & Co., will
take over Remington's equity from Cerberus in exchange for cutting
the firm's $950 million debt load, the people said.

First-lien lenders and others will receive the bulk of the
ownership, 82.5%.  The remainder will fall to holders of a $250
million third-lien note including Lord Abbett, according to the
report.  The funds that hold the debt aren't typically long-term
holders of equity positions.

First-lien lenders led by Franklin -- including the firm's Franklin
Templeton Investments arm -- and JPMorgan Asset Management will
provide a $100 million loan to help fund the company during its
bankruptcy, the people said, according to the report.  But they'll
also need to find new lenders to replace an existing revolving line
of credit of about $200 million. The banks that are funding that
loan now -- including Bank of America Corp. and Wells Fargo & Co.
-- are in discussions to possibly finance the replacement line, but
haven't made a decision, according to people with knowledge of the
discussions.

The report recounts that bank lenders early in February permanently
reduced to $193 million what had been a $225 million line of
credit. In 2017, the loan size had been increased to about $265
million.

ROSETTA GENOMICS: Genoptix Merger Bid Fails to Get Majority Votes
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Rosetta Genomics Ltd. announced results from its Feb. 22, 2018,
extraordinary general meeting of shareholders that was convened to
vote on the proposed merger with Genoptix, Inc.  Rosetta reports
that an insufficient number of votes were cast in favor of the
transaction to constitute a majority of the shares outstanding
needed for the proposal to pass.

Rosetta notes that the extraordinary general meeting has been
rescheduled twice, and that it is unable to reschedule the meeting
again.  As a result, Genoptix has issued a notice to the Company
that they are terminating the merger agreement effective
immediately, but Genoptix has indicated that they remain interested
in pursuing alternative options to consummate a transaction with
Rosetta.

Rosetta Genomics reports that votes representing approximately 47%
of the total shares outstanding entitled to vote were cast.  Of
those, approximately 66%, or 1,835,365 shares, were voted in favor
of the proposed merger with Genoptix.

Under the merger agreement, Rosetta will be required to deliver to
Genoptix an unsecured promissory note promising to reimburse a
total of $750,000 of Genoptix's expenses in three monthly
installments, with the first installment due March 22, 2018.

SANTOS CONSTRUCTION: Seeks Authority to Use Cash Collateral
-----------------------------------------------------------
Santos Construction Group, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Middle District of Florida to authorize its use of cash,
accounts receivable and other income derived from the Debtor's
operations to fund its operating expenses and costs of
administration for the duration of the chapter 11 case.

The Debtor believes that Synovus Bank has a claim in the
approximate amount of $99,980 secured by a first position blanket
lien on the Debtor's assets. Additionaly, the Debtor believes that
Kabbage, Inc. also holds a claim in the amount of $47,000 secured
by a second position blanket lien on the Collateral.

The Debtor seeks authority to use its cash since any cash
collateral generated by the Debtor may constitute the cash
collateral of its secured creditors. The Debtor asserts that the
use of such cash collateral is necessary to avoid immediate and
irreparable harm to its estate. The cash collateral will be used to
maintain business operations and preserve value of the estate.

As adequate protection for the use of cash collateral, the Debtor
offers the following:

     (a) Synovus and Kabbage will have post-petition liens on the
collateral to the same extent, validity and priority as existed
pre-petition;

     (b) Synovus and Kabbage will have the right to inspect the
collateral, provided that said inspection does not interrupt the
business of the Debtor; and

     (c) Upon request by the Synovus and Kabbage, the Debtor will
provide Synovus and Kabbage with copies of monthly financial
documents generated in the ordinary course of the Debtor's business
and other reasonable information.

SPECTRUM BRANDS: S&P Affirms 'BB-' CCR on HRG Merger Agreement
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB-' corporate credit rating on
Middleton, Wis.-based Spectrum Brands Inc. The outlook is stable.


S&P said, "We also affirmed our 'BB+' issue-level rating on the
company's senior secured bank debt with a recovery rating of '1',
indicating our expectation for very high (90%-100%, rounded
estimate: 95%) recovery in the event of a payment default. At the
same time, we affirmed our 'BB-' issue-level rating on the
company's senior unsecured notes, with a recovery rating of '4',
indicating our expectations for average (30%-50%; rounded estimate:
45%) recovery in the event of a payment default."

Debt outstanding as of Dec. 31, 2017, was about $4 billion.

S&P said, "The affirmation reflects our generally positive view of
the recently announced merger agreement between Spectrum Brands and
its majority owner, investment holding company HRG Group Inc. We
have a positive view of the near-term removal of HRG's majority 58%
ownership stake in Spectrum Brands (resulting in the company being
a 100% publicly-traded company, notwithstanding the recent
disclosure of a hedge fund with 9% ownership) and the likely
preservation of meaningful tax assets, despite the pro forma
increase in S&P Global Ratings adjusted leverage to around 5.5x,
which we expect to be temporary. In addition, Spectrum Brands
recently recommitted to its financial policy. Specifically, it
committed to to maintaining leverage (as defined by the company) in
the 3.5x-4.0x range, which we estimate equates to S&P Global
Ratings adjusted leverage in the mid-4x area. In particular, we
assume the company will prudently manage the significant gross
asset disposal proceeds—perhaps in excess of $3.5 billion--that
will likely result if the planned GBA sales occur. These factors
offset Spectrum Brands' weaker than expected performance over the
past year, particularly by the continuing businesses, and our
moderately diminished view of the business risk excluding GBA.

"The stable outlook reflects our generally positive view of the HRG
agreement, and our expectation that Spectrum Brands will remain
committed to financial policies that result in S&P Global Ratings'
adjusted leverage improving to around the mid-4x area. In
particular, we assume the company will prudently manage the
significant asset disposal proceeds that will result if the planned
GBA disposals occur. These factors offset weaker-than-expected
performance exhibited over the last year, particularly by the
continuing businesses.

"We could lower the ratings if there is persistent underperformance
at the continuing businesses, which could result from a
cyclically-driven deterioration in consumer spending, escalating
competition, unfavorable seasonality, or ongoing
restructuring/recall-related charges, such that we believe adjusted
leverage will remain above 5x. We could also lower the ratings if
we reassess the business risk unfavorably, which could occur given
the company's plan to reposition its business. This presents
unknown factors including future potential acquisition activity in
addition to the probable loss of the relatively stable, albeit low
growth, battery business. In addition to operating performance
shortfalls, a lower rating could result if the company directs a
large amount of asset disposal proceeds to share buybacks instead
of debt reduction, or transacts significant acquisition activity at
high multiples.

"We will not consider upgrading Spectrum Brands before the GBA
disposals are complete. While maintaining adjusted leverage below
4x would likely be required for a higher rating, we would also need
better visibility into the deployment of capital into new
businesses. We would want to see a stronger business with less
seasonality, greater scale, and free cash flow generating ability."


SPECTRUM HEALTHCARE: Court Inked 18th Cash Collateral Order
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge James J. Tancredi of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Connecticut has signed an eighteenth order authorizing
Spectrum Healthcare LLC, and its debtor-affiliates interim use of
cash collateral consistent with the approved budget.

The further hearing on the continued use of cash collateral for
will be held on March 14, 2018 at 2:00 p.m.

The approved Budget provides total cash disbursements of $898,631
covering the period February 18 through March 17, 2018.

The Debtors sought authorization to use the cash collateral of
their secured creditors: (1) MidCap Funding IV LLC, as assignee of
MidCap Financial, LLC; (2) CCP Finance I, LLC, as assignee of
Nationwide Health Properties, LLC, as Lender under the NHP Loan;
(3) CCP Park Place 7541 LLC and CCP Torrington 7542 LLC, as agents
for NHP with respect to the NHP Lease; (4) Love Funding
Corporation; (5) the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, as
additional secured party with LFC; and (6) the State of Connecticut
Department of Revenue Services.

The Debtors will adequately protect Secured Parties by:

     (a) Granting to them replacement liens on the Collection
Accounts and the debtor-in-possession accounts of the Debtors, to
the same extent (if any) and with the same validity, enforceability
and priority as the MidCap Prepetition Liens, the NHP Prepetition
Liens, the CCP Landlords' Prepetition Liens and the LFC Prepetition
Liens (along with HUD's lien as additional secured party) had (and
after application of the terms and conditions of the NHC
Intercreditor and the LFC Intercreditor Agreements) against the
Debtors' deposit accounts and other assets prior to the Petition
Date, and

     (b) Making weekly adequate protection payments of $2,000 to
Midcap beginning in the first week of the Budget and continuing
weekly until the week ending March 10, 2018, following which, for
the week beginning March 11, 2018, MidCap will be paid $12,000.

In addition, having ceased operations and vacated its leased
premises, Spectrum Torrington will retain and not spend any and all
collections received for the period of this budget absent consent
from MidCap.

The Secured Parties are each granted additional replacement lien in
cash collateral, accounts including (without limitation) healthcare
insurance receivables and governmental healthcare receivables and
all proceeds thereof whether deposited in the collections accounts,
any payment account or elsewhere, and other collateral in which
each of the Secured Parties held a security interest prepetition,
whether acquired before or after the Petition Date

The Debtors are authorized to pay only their current expenses as
reflected in the Budget.  However, Spectrum Manchester Realty or
its assignee, MidCap, as the case may be, and the CCP Landlords
reserve the right to assert any accrued but unpaid rent or other
lease obligations owed or to become owed to them, respectively, as
administrative expense claims.

Such Administrative Rent Claims will be subordinate to any unpaid,
non-professional administrative expenses at the conclusion of the
sale process contemplated by the Order or any wind down process
that may occur in these cases, except, to the extent of $6,000 per
week of rent for each of the CCP Landlords and Spectrum Manchester
Realty or its assignee, MidCap Funding, as the case may be, as to
such subordination.

Excluded from the liens and interests held by the Secured Creditors
in property of the Debtors' bankruptcy estates, including any
replacement lien granted by the Eighteenth Order will be: (a) any
lien on or interest in the Debtors' claims, causes of claim or
proceeds from Avoidance Actions, and (b) a carveout for payment of
the Debtors' professional fees in the amount of $260,000, less
payments received on account of such fees pursuant to the Spectrum
Manchester Plan, with the carve-out for payment of the
professionals of the Committee having been exhausted by reason of
fees its professionals received pursuant to the Spectrum Manchester
Plan.

VALLEY VIEW DOWNS: Supreme Court Upholds FTI Clawback vs Merit
--------------------------------------------------------------
A unanimous Supreme Court on Feb. 27, 2018, set aside payments
Valley View Downs, LP, made to Merit Management Group, LP, for the
purchase of Bedford Downs stock.

The Supreme Court upheld a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the Seventh Circuit on safe harbor provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code.

Valley View Downs, LP, and Bedford Downs Management Corp. entered
into an agreement under which Valley View, if it got the last
harness-racing license in Pennsylvania, would purchase all of
Bed-ford Downs' stock for $55 million. Valley View was granted the
license and arranged for the Cayman Islands branch of Credit Suisse
to wire $55 million to third-party escrow agent Citizens Bank of
Pennsylvania. The Bedford Downs shareholders, including Merit
Management Group, LP, deposited their stock certificates into
escrow. Citizens Bank disbursed the $55 million over two
installments according to the agreement, of which Merit received
$16.5 million.

Although Valley View secured the harness-racing license, it was
unable to achieve its goal of opening a racetrack casino. Valley
View and its parent company, Centaur, LLC, filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy. FTI Consulting, Inc., was appointed to serve as trustee
of the Centaur litigation trust. FTI then sought to avoid the
transfer from Valley View to Merit for the sale of Bedford Downs'
stock, arguing that it was constructively fraudulent under 11
U.S.C. Sec. 548(a)(1)(B).

Merit contended that the Sec. 546(e) safe harbor barred FTI from
avoiding the transfer because it was a "settlement payment . . .
made by or to (or for the benefit of)" two "financial
institutions," Credit Suisse and Citizens Bank.

The District Court agreed with Merit, but the Seventh Circuit
reversed, holding that Sec. 546(e) did not protect transfers in
which financial institutions served as mere conduits.

According to Justice Sonya Sotomayor, who penned the opinion, the
Bankruptcy Code provides that, if the transfer the trustee seeks to
avoid was made "by" or "to" a covered entity , then Sec. 546(e)
will bar avoidance without regard to whether the entity acted only
as an intermediary. It will also bar avoidance if the transfer was
made "for the benefit of" that entity, even if it was not made "by"
or "to" that entity.

"When determining whether the Sec. 546(e) safe harbor saves that
transfer from avoidance liability, the Court must look to that
overarching transfer to evaluate whether it meets the safe-harbor
criteria. Because the parties do not contend that either Valley
View or Merit is a covered entity, the transfer falls outside of
the Sec. 546(e) safe harbor," Justice Sotomayor said.

The case is, MERIT MANAGEMENT GROUP, LP v. FTI CONSULTING, INC.,
No. 16–784 (U.S.).

10-10799).  Jeffrey M. Schlerf, Esq., at Fox Rothschild LLP,
assisted the Company in its restructuring effort.  The Company
disclosed assets of $584 million and debt of $681 million as of the
Petition Date.

Affiliates Centaur PA Land LP and Valley View Downs LP sought
protection on October 28, 2009 (Bankr. D. Del., Case No. 09-13761),
also represented by Fox Rothschild.  Centaur PA Land LP and Valley
View Downs filed for bankruptcy to keep alive a project to develop
a racetrack in Pennsylvania.  The filings were made following the
failure to make payments due that month on a $382.5 million
first-lien debt and a $192 million second-lien credit.

All the companies are subsidiaries of closely held Centaur Inc.

Centaur LLC was authorized in August 2010 to sell the Fortune

The Debtor obtained approval of its reorganization plan at a Feb.
18, 2011 confirmation hearing.  The Plan would slash the casino
operator's debt by two-thirds to $260 million.  The Plan, as
revised, is based on a settlement reached by the Debtors with the
Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, the settlement was
entered among the Debtors, the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors, and Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as
administrative agent and collateral agent for lenders that
provided first lien revolving credit and term loans prepetition.
Under the Plan, second-lien lenders are to split $3.4 million in
notes that pay in kind.  Unsecured creditors of Valley View Downs
now will receive the lesser of 50% paid in cash or a share of $1.5
million cash.  Other general unsecured creditors also will have the
lesser of half payment or sharing $650,000 in cash.

WADDELL & REED: Moody's Cuts Issuer Rating to Ba1 & Assigns Ba1 CFR
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has downgraded Waddell & Reed Financial,
Inc.'s (Waddell & Reed) issuer rating to Ba1 from Baa3 and changed
the outlook to stable from negative. Moody's concurrently assigned
a Ba1 Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to Waddell & Reed.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The downgrade reflects Moody's view that sustained net outflows and
inconsistent investment performance have materially weakened
Waddell & Reed's competitive position within the industry. Moody's
notes that the company's ability to regain its competitive
position, particularly within the strategically important Retail
Unaffiliated Distribution channel, will be a challenge and is not
likely in the near- to intermediate- term given its uneven
investment performance results and the ongoing shift within the
industry to more passive management.

Although Moody's views the steps the company has taken and
continues to take to strengthen its business, such as improving
operating efficiency and modernizing its broker-dealer platform, as
strategically sound, it is not enough to offset the negative impact
the deterioration in the investment management business'
competitive position has had on the company's overall credit
profile. From its peak AUM in June 2014, AUM has declined by 40%
and pre-tax income has also declined similarly. The changes the
company is making to its broker-dealer will, if successful, provide
more lift and diversification to Waddell & Reed's earnings which
would be positive for the company's credit profile. However, these
benefits will be gradual over time and, as such, the company's
credit profile will continue to be principally driven by the
operating performance of the investment management business.

Contributing to the deterioration in the company's credit profile
is the increased risk the company is taking with its balance sheet
investments. The company recently took over $300 million of its
cash reserves and reinvested it into a laddered portfolio of
investment grade fixed income securities with an average duration
of one-year. This shift exposes the firm's balance sheet to more
market risk at a time when the company's earnings remain under
pressure.

Waddell & Reed's Ba1 rating reflects the company's moderate scale,
weak AUM stability, modest leverage, and solid pre-tax income
margins. The return to a stable outlook reflects early signs of a
trough in revenue, potential for slight margin improvement as the
broker-dealer becomes more efficient, and a view that changes to
the broker-deal will result in more economic diversification to
Waddell & Reed's fundamental business model. Previously, the high
concentration of broker-dealer assets into proprietary funds led to
a high correlation of revenues tied to the investment performance
of Waddell & Reed's funds. As the broker-dealer moves to an open
architecture, a portion of assets will be less dependent on Waddell
& Reed's funds investment performance for asset retention and
replacement. It is likely that sales and marketing will play a
bigger role in the future credit profile of Waddell & Reed.

WHAT COULD CHANGE RATING UP / DOWN

Although upward pressure on the rating is unlikely in the near term
upward pressure on the rating could result from (1) a sustained
increase in net flows with replacement rates over 100%; (2)
retention rates over 80%; and (3) a sustained increase in revenues
with marked improvement in investment performance.

A downgrade would be likely if (1) organic AUM decay accelerates;
(2) losses develop in the company's corporate bond investments; (3)
investment performance is unable to see material improvement; and
(4) regulatory risks related to the Department of Labor's Fiduciary
Rule increase.

Moody's took the following rating action on Waddell & Reed
Financial, Inc.

-- Issuer Rating, downgraded to Ba1 from Baa3.

-- Corporate Family rating, assigned Ba1.

Waddell & Reed Financial, Inc. is a holding company that provides
investment management services to individuals and institutions. The
company is headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas, and has $81.1
billion of assets under management as of December 31, 2017. The
company has outstanding $95 million of unsecured notes, maturing in
2021.



WARRIOR MET: Moody's Affirms B3 CFR; Outlook Stable
---------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed ratings of Warrior Met Coal,
Inc., including corporate family rating (CFR) of B3, probability of
default rating (PDR) of B3-PD, and a senior secured notes rating of
B3. Moody's also changed the speculative grade liquidity rating to
SGL-3 from SGL-2. The outlook is stable.

The rating action follows the company's announcement that it will
make a $350 million cash distribution to its shareholders, financed
by cash on hand plus a $125 million add-on to the company's
existing senior secured notes due 2024.

Affirmations:

Issuer: Warrior Met Coal, Inc.

-- Probability of Default Rating, Affirmed B3-PD

-- Corporate Family Rating, Affirmed B3

-- Senior Secured Regular Bond/Debenture, Affirmed B3 (LGD4)

Downgrades:

Issuer: Warrior Met Coal, Inc.

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

Outlook Actions:

Issuer: Warrior Met Coal, Inc.

-- Outlook, Remains Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

The affirmation acknowledges the company's strong operating
performance and sufficient liquidity to support the transaction, as
well as Moody's expectation that leverage will remain within
acceptable levels for the rating. Moody's expect that in the
current price environment, the company's Debt/ EBITDA, as adjusted,
will remain below 2x, and will be at approximately 4x using $120/
mt benchmark price assumption for high quality metallurgical coal.

The ratings continue to reflect the significant operational
concentration in two mines, and the inherent volatility of the
metallurgical coal markets. Nevertheless, the ratings also reflect
the company's position as one of the lowest cost producers of high
quality metallurgical coal in the United States. The company's two
operating mines -- No.4 and No.7 -- produce low-vol and mid-vol
hard coking coal which commands premium prices approaching 100% of
benchmark. These mines are highly efficient and flexible longwall
operations with a structurally lower and highly variable operating
cost profile.

The metallurgical coal benchmark settlements have fluctuated
between $82 and $285/mt over the past two years, and the ratings
incorporate a pricing sensitivity range of $95 to $145/ mt. At the
same time, the ratings reflect the relatively strong pricing
environment in 2017, which has boosted the company's liquidity and
allowed it to fund two special dividends over the past few months.

The ratings further reflect potential volatility in margins and
increase in leverage should metallurgical coal prices retreat to
the low levels observed in 2015 and 2016. That said, Moody's
acknowledge that a significant portion of the company's cost
structure is variable, allowing the business to earn positive
margins even in a distressed pricing environment. For example, the
company ties employee bonuses and hourly wage increases to
benchmark prices and production volumes, while royalty and
logistics contracts allow for lower cash outlays when the prices
are low.

The B3 rating on the senior secured notes, in line with the CFR,
reflects the preponderance of secured debt in the capital
structure, The $100 million ABL revolver (unrated) may have
superior asset coverage but is expected to be largely unused.

The company has adequate liquidity, consisting predominantly of its
fully available $100 million ABL facility. Moody's expect positive
free cash flows over the next twelve months.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation of positive free
cash flows.

The ratings could be upgraded if metallurgical coal markets were to
show more stability and predictability. The ratings could also be
upgraded in the event of material growth in scale and diversity.

The ratings could be downgraded if Debt/ EBITDA, as adjusted,
increased above 6x, if free cash flows turned negative, or if
liquidity deteriorated.

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

Warrior Met Coal is based in Brookwood, Alabama and operates two
longwall mines in Brookwood, Alabama, which produce and export
metallurgical ("met") coal for a diversified customer base of blast
furnace steel producers located primarily in Europe and South
America. Warrior's operating assets had been acquired in 2016 from
Walter Energy as part of Walter's Chapter 11 bankruptcy process. In
2017, the company generated roughly $1.2 billion in revenues.


WARRIOR MET: S&P Cuts Secured Notes Rating to 'B' on $125MM Add-On
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its issue-level rating on Brookwood,
Ala.-based coal producer Warrior Met Coal Inc.'s senior secured
notes to 'B' from 'B+' and revised the recovery rating to '3' from
'2'. This follows the company's proposed $125 million add-on to its
senior secured notes due 2024 (now totaling $475 million). The '3'
recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation of meaningful (50%-70%;
rounded estimate: 65%) recovery in the event of a payment default.

S&P expects the company to use $125 million in proceeds from the
upsized notes and $225 million in cash from its balance sheet to
pay $350 million in one or more shareholder distributions in the
next 12 months. The transaction is subject to a consent from
existing bondholders.

The less favorable recovery and issue-level ratings reflect the
proposed increase in the company's first-lien debt, which reduces
recovery prospects for first-lien lenders.

S&P said, "Our 'B' issuer credit rating and stable outlook on
Warrior Met are unchanged. Pro forma for the transaction, we
believe that the company will still maintain adjusted leverage of
less than 2x, reflecting strengthening demand and elevated prices
for high quality metallurgical (met) coal in the international
market. In addition, we believe that the company's ownership by
private equity sponsors increases the potential for shareholder
distributions, which would constrain the company's discretionary
cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures and
dividends) and limit the company's ability to lower its debt in the
next 12 months."

RECOVERY ANALYSIS

Key analytical factors

-- S&P's default scenario contemplates a reduction of
international met coal prices due to prolonged global recession and
an oversupply of met coal in the market. Lagging demand and falling
prices would lead to deteriorating liquidity and would contribute
to a default.

-- S&P's recovery analysis estimates a gross recovery value of
approximately $412 million, assuming an emergence EBITDA of $82
million and a 5x EBITDA multiple consistent with industry peers.

-- S&P's assumed that approximately 60% of the $100 million
asset-based lending (ABL) facility would be drawn in the default
year.

-- Claims include six months of accrued but unpaid interest.

Simulated default assumptions

-- Year of default: 2021
-- Emergence EBITDA: $82.4 million
-- Implied enterprise valuation multiple: 5x
-- Gross enterprise value (EV): $412.2 million

Simplified waterfall

-- Net EV (after 5% administration cost): $392 million
-- Estimated priority claims: $61.4 million (ABL facility)
-- Estimated collateral value after priority claims: $330 million
-- Estimated senior secured claims: $499 million
-- Recovery expectation: (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 65%)

Windsor Marketing Group filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. D.
Conn. Case No. 18-20022) on Jan. 8, 2018.  In the petition signed
by Kevin F. Armata, president, the Debtor estimated assets and
liabilities at $10 million to $50 million.  

The Debtor is represented by James Berman, Esq., at Zeisler &

WWLC INVESTMENT: Given Until April 13 to Confirm Chapter 11 Plan
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Brenda T. Rhoades of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Texas has extended, at the behest of WWLC
Investment, L.P., the exclusivity period for the Debtor to confirm
a plan of reorganization until April 13, 2018.

The Troubled Company Reporter has previously reported that the
Debtor asked for an extension of the 180-day exclusive period to
confirm its Plan contending that the time requirements for
obtaining a setting on both a disclosure statement and confirmation
hearing within 60 days from filing a plan and disclosure statement
is challenging anytime of the year, but is more so at the end of
the year.  The Debtor filed its Plan on Dec. 29, 2017. Typical
delays caused by the end-of-the-year holidays and vacations
partially resulted in the disclosure statement hearing being set on
Feb. 13, 2018 using 46 of the 60 days.

The Debtor continued to have the exclusive right to solicit votes
for its Plan until Feb. 27, 2018.  The process to set a
confirmation hearing requires at least 28-day notice of the
deadline to object to confirmation of the Plan, with the hearing
typically a week later. Along with a few additional days for the
Debtor to accomplish the mail-out of the Plan, Disclosure
Statement, Ballots and Notice of Hearing, the Debtor will require
approximately 6-weeks to reach confirmation after the disclosure
statement hearing.

Given the scheduling challenges, the Debtor believed that it will
not be able to obtain approval of its Disclosure Statement any
earlier than February 13, 2018. Moreover, the Debtor said that its
plan is likely to be accepted by its creditors and confirmed in a
timely fashion since the Plan provides for 100% payment of all
allowed claims.

                            *********

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

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

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

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

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

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