25350 PLEASANT: Amends Plan to Include Several Unsecured Claims
---------------------------------------------------------------
25350 Pleasant Valley Drive LLC submitted a Fifth Amended
Disclosure Statement describing Fourth Amended Plan of
Reorganization dated November 24, 2025.
The Plan is a plan of reorganization, meaning that the Debtor will
continue to operate its business and affairs, as a "Reorganized
Debtor," following confirmation of the Plan.
The Plan provides for full payment of the claims of the Debtor's
administrative, secured and priority claims and for a distribution
to unsecured creditors. The Plan provides for no distribution or
payment to the holders of equity interests in the Debtor. However,
equity will be issued in the Reorganized Debtor to E. Bayramov, B.
Bayramov, Rovshan Hamidov, and Anthony Halabi, on account of
significant New Value Contributions to be made under the Plan,
which are necessary to support the payments called for under the
Plan.
Pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the forbearance agreements
with NWFCU and MainStreet, the Debtor shall have 36 to 48 months to
refinance the debts to those creditors. During such time, the
Debtor will make payments in accord with the agreements with NWFCU
and MainStreet.
The Class 5 Unsecured Claim of Epic at Dulles South Condominium
Unit Owner's Association consists of the of unpaid condominium fees
and costs, required by the Condominium Declaration, and shall be
paid the amounts indicated in the Projections. Based upon the
Projections, the full amount of fees and costs will be paid. It is
estimated that the amount of Epic's Class 5 Claim is approximately
$49,787.62. The Class 5 Claim is impaired.
The Class 6.1 Unsecured Claim of the SBA represents the unpaid
balance of an EIDL Loan to the Debtor. The Class 6.1 Claim is
impaired.
The Class 7 Unsecured Claim of ACA represents the Debtor's
guaranteed obligations of TAF owed to ACA. The current balance owed
to ACA is $21,002,955 as set forth in Exhibit 4. 16 The Class 7
Claim is impaired.
The Class 8 Unsecured Claim of AFC represents the Debtor's
guaranteed obligations of TAF owed to AFC. The current balance owed
to AFC is $5,943,409 as set forth in Exhibit 5. 17 The Class 6.3
Claim is impaired.
The Class 9 Unsecured Claim of TAF represents TAF's claim against
the Debtor. The balance owed to TAF is $0.
Class 10 consists of Equity Interest. E. Bayramov and B. Bayramov,
the members of the Debtor, will be paid nothing on account of their
interests. In exchange for the New Value Contributions (totaling
$1,387,000 over the Plan term), E. Bayramov, B. Bayramov, Hamidov
and Halabi will receive equity interests in the Reorganized
Debtor.
The value of the equity in the Debtor, as of the projected
confirmation date, is significantly less than the amount of the new
value contributions to be made. The obligations of E. Bayramov, B.
Bayramov, Hamidov, Halabi, and ADM to make the New Value
Contributions will be secured by a Confessed Judgment Promissory
Notes. The Class 10 Equity Interest holders are impaired under the
Plan.
Payments and distributions under the Plan will be funded by (a)
rents received from the Debtor's tenants (as set forth in the
Projections) of the Debtor's real property, and (b) new-value
capital contributions made in exchange for equity interests in the
Reorganized Debtor.
In total, the New Value Contributions are $1,387,000, consisting of
the contributions to be made by E. Baayramov, B. Bayramov, Halabi,
and Hamidov as set as "Plan Contributions." As of the date of this
Disclosure Statement, approximately $215,000 of the New Value
Contributions have been deposited into escrow toward these Plan
funding obligations.

8TH STREET NE: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to Feb. 24, 2026
----------------------------------------------------------------
8th Street NE Partners, LLC asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Columbia to extend its exclusivity periods to file a
plan of reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to February
24, 2026 and April 25, 2026, respectively.
The Debtor is a District of Columbia corporation with its principal
place of business located at 4017, 4021, 4025 8th Street, NE
Washington, DC 20017 (the "Real Property"). The Debtor leases the
Real Property to residential tenants.
The Debtor is pursuing a sale of the Real Property. The realtors
retained by the Debtor have employed a robust marketing campaign
for the Real Property, and have begun to receive and negotiate
offers for purchase of the Real Property.
Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtor experienced a protracted
period of net losses from operating the Real Property which
frequently left the Debtor with negative cash flow and required the
Debtor's principals to infuse cash into the business to fund
expenses and avoid account overdrafts.
The Debtor explains that cause exists warranting the Court's
extension of the 120-Day Exclusivity Period and the 180-Day Period
to the dates requested. The cornerstone of the Debtor's
reorganization plan is the effort to consummate a successful sale
of the Property. The Debtor is engaged in diligent efforts to
procure a sale. Despite engaging in robust and diligent marketing
efforts, the Property has not yet been sold.
In addition, the Debtor and District Line's post-petition
litigation will likely be affected, and may be resolved, by the
conclusion of the sale process. As a result, the Debtor has shown
progress in negotiating with its creditors, demonstrated reasonable
prospects for proposing a viable plan, and has undertaken efforts
to move this case forward.

facility rating (revolver and term loan) and senior secured notes
rating to Ba2 from Ba3. The company's speculative grade liquidity
rating (SGL) remains unchanged at SGL-1. The outlook was changed to
stable from positive. Adtalem is a Chicago-based provider of
postsecondary education and professional talent to the healthcare
industry.
The CFR upgrade to Ba2 recognizes the company's consistent
execution of its growth with purpose strategy, strong earnings
momentum, and prudent management of credit metrics and liquidity.
Adtalem has maintained above-industry growth and expanded margins
despite the challenging operating landscape for US higher
education, while investing in technological capabilities that
foster student retention and success. Moody's projects that Adtalem
will sustain organic revenue growth in the mid-single digits,
increase market share through investments to bring new capacity to
market, and maintain strong liquidity.
Although Adtalem has not publicly announced a formal leverage
target, the company has steadily reduced its debt/EBITDA leverage
since acquiring Walden in 2021, driven by earnings growth and
voluntary debt repayments. Adtalem has demonstrated disciplined
stewardship of its balance sheet, balancing capital allocation
between share repurchases and debt reduction. Moody's anticipates
the company may prioritize share repurchases in 2026, but Moody's
expects the amount of such activity will likely be limited to
internally generated cash flow.
Given the complex and evolving regulatory environment for US
for-profit education, maintaining conservative credit metrics,
strong liquidity and disciplined capital allocation is a key credit
consideration for Adtalem. Moody's projects the company will
operate with a debt/EBITDA between 1.5x-2.0x (based on Moody's
adjustments) and maintain very good liquidity.
RATINGS RATIONALE
Adtalem's Ba2 CFR incorporates the company's solid market position
in the for-profit, postsecondary education market, with a primary
focus on nursing specifically and the healthcare industry
generally. Adtalem's medical and healthcare institutions address
significant resource shortages in the US for medical profession
services, for both nurses and doctors.
As of September 30, 2025, Adtalem had more than 97,000 students
enrolled globally and operated 28 campuses across 16 states, the
Caribbean, and the UK. Moody's projects the company will sustain
strong operating momentum and maintain at least mid-single digit
revenue growth over the next two years. Moody's expects the company
will manage its capital structure prudently, balancing between
business investments, share repurchases and debt repayment, while
maintaining very good liquidity and conservative credit metrics.
Adtalem's rating also reflects the company's vulnerability to the
complex regulatory landscape of for-profit higher education,
including reliance on Title IV funding and potential reputation
harm from criticisms over educational standards. Government policy
shifts could affect the institution's funding, accreditation, and
student recruitment, while negative publicity about educational
quality or student debt levels could impact enrollments and credit
standing. If legal and regulatory challenges arise and are not
resolved, they may present increased risk of operational
deterioration.
The senior secured first lien bank credit facility (revolver and
term loan) and senior secured notes are rated Ba2, the same as the
company's Ba2 CFR, reflecting the preponderance of debt represented
by the credit facility and notes. The senior secured notes and
first lien credit facility have a first lien priority on
substantially all assets of the company.
The SGL-1 speculative grade liquidity rating reflects Moody's
expectations that Adtalem will maintain very good liquidity over
the next 12-15 months. Sources of liquidity consist of $264.7
million of unrestricted cash as of September 30, 2025, Moody's
expectations for annual free cash flow of around $300 million, and
full access to the $500 million revolving credit facility due 2030.
Adtalem is currently subject to heightened cash monitoring
requirements and must post a letter of credit to maintain
eligibility to participate in Title IV programs. As of September
30, 2025, Adtalem had two surety-backed letters of credit
outstanding, totaling $179 million in favor of ED. The company also
posted $61.9 million of surety bonds, required by many states for
licensure of private-sector postsecondary education institutions.
Adtalem has no financial covenant requirements under the existing
term loan. The revolving credit facility is subject to a maximum
total net leverage ratio covenant that cannot exceed 3.25x at
September 30, 2025. Moody's expects the company to maintain an
ample cushion under its financial covenant over the next 12 to 15
months.
The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations that Adtalem will
continue to demonstrate sustained conservative credit metrics,
while expanding its revenue size and maintaining balanced financial
policies.
FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS
The ratings could be upgraded if Adtalem continues to demonstrate a
consistent track record of strong enrollment growth in various
economic cycles, while meaningfully increasing scale and revenue
diversity, and sustaining strong profitability. Maintaining
disciplined financial policies, strong credit metrics, including
debt/EBITDA leverage sustained below 2x and very good liquidity
would also support an upgrade. In addition, a ratings upgrade will
also be influenced by Moody's assessments of Adtalem's financial
strength relative to regulatory risks, including reducing its
reliance upon student access to US federal education loan programs
for the preponderance of its revenue.
The ratings could be downgraded if regulatory or legal challenges
result in sizeable litigation expenses, ineligibility for Title IV
funding or the removal of accreditation to one of the company's
learning institutions, or sustained enrollment declines. Resumption
of more aggressive financial strategies, such as pursuing large
debt funded acquisitions or share repurchase activity, that lead to
debt/EBITDA leverage sustained above 2x, other than on a temporary
basis, may also result in a downgrade.
The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Services published in November 2021.
Adtalem's Ba2 CFR rating is three notches below the
scorecard-indicated outcome of Baa2. The actual rating places
greater emphasis on the company's heavy reliance on Title IV
funding, heightened regulatory and legal risks, and its all-secured
debt capital structure than the scorecard-indicated outcome.
Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, Adtalem Global Education Inc.
(NYSE: ATGE) is a provider of postsecondary education and
professional talent to the healthcare industry. The company
operates five for-profit educational institutions across the US and
Caribbean.
Moody's expects Adtalem to generate annual revenue of around $1.9
billion in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.

ALTICE USA: Asset Managers Face Alleged Cartel Lawsuit
------------------------------------------------------
Alexander Gladstone, Becky Yerak and Soma Biswas of The Wall Street
Journal report that Optimum Communications, formerly Altice USA,
has filed an antitrust lawsuit against several prominent investors,
including Apollo Global Management and Ares Management, claiming
the firms colluded to freeze the telecommunications company out of
the U.S. credit market. The lawsuit, filed Tuesday in the U.S.
District Court in New York, alleges that eight lenders formed an
"illegal cartel" in 2024 that blocked Optimum, formerly Altice USA,
from repurchasing its debt at prevailing market rates.
The suit highlights growing concerns over cooperation agreements in
corporate lending, where investment firms collectively shape
financing terms. Optimum asserts that such agreements have
increasingly restricted competition in the loan and bond markets,
citing the 2024 pact as just the latest example. Other named
defendants include BlackRock, GoldenTree Asset Management, JPMorgan
Chase, Loomis Sayles, PGIM, and Oaktree Capital Management. None of
the firms immediately commented, the report states.
According to the complaint, the lenders agreed not to engage in
transactions with Optimum unless all members of the group
consented, effectively boycotting the company's efforts to raise
capital. The suit claims the collusion suppressed competition,
controlling 99% of Optimum's outstanding loans and bonds, and
leaving the company with little ability to negotiate financing on
normal market terms.
Optimum is represented in the lawsuit by Kellogg Hansen Todd Figel
& Frederick, while Kirkland & Ellis handles its creditor
negotiations. The complaint also notes that the cooperation group,
represented by Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, controls 88% of the
$3.1 trillion leveraged finance market. Philip Korologos, co-chair
of Boies Schiller Flexner's antitrust group, said the case will
test how competition law applies to creditor agreements that have
long governed the leveraged finance industry, the report states.
About Altice USA Inc.
Altice USA, Inc. is an American cable television provider.
Effective November 7, 2025, the Company will change its corporate
name to Optimum Communications, Inc., pursuant to a Certificate of
Amendment to the Company's Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on
November 5, 2025.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $30.7 billion in total
assets, $33 billion in total liabilities, and $2.2 billion in total
stockholders' deficiency.
* * *
As reported by the TCR on May 17, 2024, S&P Global Ratings lowered
all its ratings on Altice USA Inc. one notch, including the Company
credit rating to 'CCC+', and removed them from Credit Watch, where
it placed them with negative implications on May 2, 2024. The
negative outlook reflects that S&P could lower its ratings if the
company opts to pursue a debt restructuring over the next year.
S&P said, "We believe Altice USA's capital structure is
unsustainable. We believe the company is vulnerable to nonpayment
long term and depends on favorable business, financial, and
economic conditions to meet its financial obligations as they come
due in 2027 and beyond. We believe it is more likely than not that
Altice USA will enter into a distressed debt restructuring that we
consider tantamount to default, or it could face bankruptcy long
term."
AMERICAN AUTO: S&P Affirms 'B-' Rating on Senior Secured Debt
-------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings revised its recovery rating on American Auto
Auction Group LLC's (AAAG) senior secured debt to '3' (rounded
estimate: 50%) from '4' (rounded estimate: 45%). S&P's 'B-'
issue-level rating on the company's senior unsecured debt remains
unchanged and in line with the 'B-' issuer credit rating.
S&P said, "This revision follows AAAG's issuance of a $175 million
add-on to its first-lien term loan, which was lower than the $300
million add-on we previously expected. The reduced amount of debt
issuance improves the recovery prospects for the secured
debtholders in our hypothetical default scenario.
"Our 'B-' issuer credit rating and stable outlook on the company
are unchanged. We continue to forecast AAAG's auction volumes will
gradually improve over the next 12 months and support its ability
to generate free operating cash flow and maintain adequate
liquidity."
ISSUE RATINGS--RECOVERY ANALYSIS
Key analytical factors
-- S&P's simulated default scenario assumes that AAAG defaults in
2027 because of heightened competitive pressure, the loss of
customer relationships, or challenges passing through inflationary
cost pressures.
-- S&P expects these conditions would reduce the company's auction
volumes, revenue, and profitability, which would lead to a cash
flow deficit and reduced liquidity.
-- Based on the company' s capital structure and our assumption of
higher borrowing costs in a default scenario, it estimates that its
EBITDA would need to decline to nearly $123 million to trigger a
default.
Simulated default assumptions
-- Year of default: 2027
-- Jurisdiction: U.S.
-- LIBOR: 250 basis points
-- $150 million cash flow revolver: Standard 85% drawn at default
All debt includes six months of accrued interest
-- Administrative claims: 5% of gross enterprise value
Simplified waterfall
-- Gross enterprise value: $679 million
-- Administrative expenses: $34 million
-- EBITDA at emergence: $123 million
-- Enterprise value multiple: 5.5x
-- Net enterprise value: $645 million
-- Obligor/nonobligor valuation split: 100%/0%
-- Priority claims: None
-- Total collateral value for secured debt: $645 million
-- Total first-lien debt: $1,214 million
--Recovery expectations: 50%-70% (rounded estimate: 50%)
AMERICAN SIGNATURE: Files Ch. 11, Launches 363 Sale with $50M DIP
-----------------------------------------------------------------
American Signature, Inc., one of the nation's leading home
furnishings retailers and the parent company of Value City
Furniture and American Signature Furniture, announced on November
23, 2025, that it has filed voluntary petitions for Chapter 11
relief in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware.
In order to maximize value, the Company has commenced a sale
process pursuant to Section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the
hope of a competitive auction within approximately 45 days to
elicit higher value for the benefit of all stakeholders. ASI
expects to enter into a stalking horse asset purchase agreement
(the "APA") with ASI Purchaser LLC under which, subject to Court
approval, ASI Purchaser LLC will acquire substantially all of the
Company's assets and assume certain related liabilities.
Value City Furniture and American Signature Furniture stores and
websites remain open at this time and will continue to fulfill
customer orders and provide ongoing customer service to the best of
its ability throughout the court-supervised process. Customers can
benefit from discounts on a wide selection of home furnishings
including living room, dining room, and bedroom collections in
addition to decor, lighting, mattresses, and rugs for the holidays.
Prior to the chapter 11 filing, certain Value City Furniture and
American Signature Furniture stores commenced store closing sales
and are offering deep discounts while merchandise lasts. A complete
list of Value City Furniture and American Signature Furniture
locations can be found at the Store Locator.
"For nearly 75 years, American Signature has served as a
family-owned furniture destination that communities could rely on
to provide style, quality, and value," said Rudy Morando, Co-Chief
Restructuring Officer for ASI. "In the face of the ongoing
macroeconomic headwinds that have impacted the entire home
furnishing industry, the Company has carefully evaluated its
options to assess the best path forward in the current operating
environment. Through that review, we determined that entering a
court-supervised process will provide the best opportunity to
maximize value. We deeply appreciate our team members, customers,
and partners and are determined to serve them throughout this
process."
Additional Information about the Court-Supervised Process:
ASI has secured approximately $50 million in debtor-in-possession
financing from Second Avenue Capital Partners LLC. Subject to Court
approval, this financing will support certain operations and the
Company's efforts to maximize value through the chapter 11 cases
and sale process.
Additionally, ASI is filing a number of customary motions seeking,
among other things, authorization to continue payment of employee
wages and benefits, maintain certain customer programs, and satisfy
post-petition obligations to vendors and partners. The Company
expects to receive Court approval for these requests.

AMERICAN SIGNATURE: Seeks to Sell Furniture Business at Auction
---------------------------------------------------------------
American Signature Inc. and its affiliates seek approval from the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, to sell
substantially all Assets, free and clear of liens, claims,
interests, and encumbrances.
On November 22, 2025, each Debtor filed a voluntary petition for
relief under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.
The Debtor, together with its subsidiaries, is a residential
furniture company operating across its Value City Furniture and
American Signature Furniture brands and serving as a furniture
destination consumers can rely on for style, quality, and value.
Headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, the Company operates more than 120
stores across 17 states, with the largest concentrations in Ohio
(20), Michigan (16), and Illinois (11). The Company employs
approximately 3,000 team members.
The Debtors have faced a challenging economic environment
exacerbated by high inflation, softer consumer purchases in the
furniture environment, and limited liquidity. In addition, the
national housing crisis, rising inflation and higher interest
rates, and newly established tariffs have dimmed consumer demand
for homeware.
While the Debtors have entered into the Stalking Horse Agreements,
the Aggregate Assets remain available for purchase by a Successful
Bidder who provides a higher and better offer for all or a portion
of all of the Aggregate Assets, including bidders who may wish to
continue the Debtors’ operations, or who otherwise may which to
purchase the Aggregate Assets without the store sales contemplated
under the Stalking Horse Agency Agreement.
The Debtors have obtained sufficient postpetition financing to
allow them, with the assistance of their professionals, robustly
market the sale of the Aggregate Assets through the closing of the
sale of the Aggregate Assets to the Stalking Horse Bidder or
Successful Bidder. The Debtors propose Bid Procedures for the sale
of the Assets, establishing the following dates and deadlines:
a. Bid Deadline: December 30, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. (prevailing
Eastern time)
b. Auction: January 5, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. (prevailing Eastern
time)
c. Sale Objection Deadline: December 30, 2025, at 4:00 p.m.
(prevailing Eastern time)
d. Sale Hearing: January 7, 2026, as the date for the Court to
consider approval of the sale of the Aggregate Assets.
The Debtors also seeks to provide the Stalking Horse Bidder, with
an expense reimbursement not to exceed $1.5 million on account of
expenses incurred by the Stalking Horse Bidder in connection with
the sale of the Aggregate Assets.
The Bid Procedures and the Debtors' proposed timeline for this sale
process are a product of good-faith, arm’s length negotiations
and reflect the best option available for the Debtors to maximize
the value of their Aggregate Assets under the circumstances.
Completion of the sale process in a timely manner will also
maximize the value of the Aggregate Assets. The proposed dates
governing the sale of the Aggregate Assets, marketing, and auction
process are within the Sale Milestones provided under the Interim
DIP Order.
Failure to adhere to the Sale Milestones with respect to the sale
of the Aggregate Assets would constitute a default under the
Interim DIP Order.
A summary of the Stalking Horse Agreement of the Debtor and ASI
Purchaser LLC (and/or its designee(s)), with SEI Inc. as guarantor,
is also provided at: https://urlcurt.com/u?l=r3CYYd
The Debtors retained SSG Capital Advisors, LLC in November 2025 to
serve as their investment bankers to develop a sale and marketing
plan to maximize the value of the Debtors’ assets for the benefit
of their estates and their creditors.
The Debtors believe that the Bid Procedures proposed hereby will
therefore enable the efficient consummation of the sale of the
Aggregate Assets at an auction to the highest or best bidder.

ANTHOLOGY INC: Court OKs Sales to Ellucian & Encoura in Ch. 11
--------------------------------------------------------------
Anthology announced on November 24, 2025, that the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Southern District of Texas has approved these
transactions in connection with the Company's previously announced
Chapter 11 sale process:
-- Ellucian Company LLC will acquire the Enterprise Operations
business, including Anthology Student, Finance & HCM, Student
Verification, and Enterprise Ops Legacy.
-- Encoura LE LLC will acquire the Lifecycle Engagement business,

Separately, the Company plans to align its focus on its core
Teaching & Learning Business (focused on Blackboard, Ally, and
adjacent solutions) to be rebranded as Blackboard Inc. upon
emergence. The stand-alone recapitalization of Blackboard will
allow the Company to emerge on a debt-free basis with the backing
of a group of investors led by affiliates of funds managed by
Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. and Nexus Capital Management LP.
"With Court approval we are one step closer to the close of the
sale transactions and positioning our EdTech Solutions for
long-term growth," said Bruce Dahlgren, Chief Executive Officer of
Anthology. "These transactions are a testament to the hard work and
dedication of our team--and we're thankful to Ellucian, Encoura,
and our lenders for the confidence they have demonstrated in the
future of these businesses and their commitment to advancing
exceptional student outcomes well into the future."
All transactions are subject to certain customary closing
conditions. In the meantime, the Company will continue to deliver
the highest quality solutions to facilitate more efficient
processes for its customers.

APEX TOOL: Moody's Assigns 'Caa3' CFR & Caa3-PD PDR, Outlook Stable
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings assigned a new Caa3 corporate family rating and a
Caa3-PD probability default rating to Apex Tool Ultimate Holdings,
LLC ("Apex Tool Ultimate Holdings"), a newly created holding
company in the group and the issuer of the new loans. Concurrently,
Moody's appended a limited default designation ("/LD") to the
company's PDR, following the distressed exchange of the group's
debt. At the same time, Moody's assigned new ratings to the loans
issued by Apex Tool Ultimate Holdings, LLC and took rating actions
on the existing loans issued by Apex Tool Group, LLC ("Apex Tool
Group"), which is indirectly wholly-owned by Apex Tool Ultimate
Holdings, LLC. Moody's have withdrawn the Caa2 CFR and Caa2-PD PDR
previously assigned to Apex Tool Group, LLC.
The rating action reflects the group's exchange offer undertaken to
solicit the existing loan lenders to exchange into new series of
debt, including the super priority term loan, tranche A-1, tranche
A-2, tranche B-1, and tranche B-2 term loans. The small remaining
lenders of the existing term loans are left in a subordinated
position relative to the exchanged and new money term loans created
in this transaction. Moody's considers this up-tiering transaction
a default and appended a "/LD" designation to Apex Tool Ultimate
Holdings' PDR. Moody's will remove the "/LD" designation from the
PDR in approximately three business days.
"The Caa3 corporate family rating of Apex Tool Ultimate Holdings
reflects the group's very high debt load and leverage after the
group's second distressed exchange, following the one in March
2024. Pro forma of the exchange, Moody's expects the debt/EBITDA
leverage to remain around 14.5x, higher than the 14.1x for the 12
months that ended on September 30, 2025. Despite meaningful
improvement in liquidity with new money term loans -- paying down
$100 million of revolver draw and adding about $45 million of cash
to the balance sheet -- Moody's expects the company's debt capital
structure to remain untenable amid limited operational improvement
for the next couple of years in Moody's base case scenario," said
Motoki Yanase, VP - Senior Credit Officer at Moody's Ratings.
"The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations that the enhanced
liquidity through the debt restructuring will support the company's
operation for the next 12-18 months. The debt maturities were also
extended through the transaction," added Yanase.
Governance considerations are relevant to the rating action,
including risks from an aggressive financial policy with an
elevated debt load.
RATINGS RATIONALE
Apex Tool Ultimate Holdings' Caa3 CFR reflects its credit
weaknesses, including weak sales of its hand tools, sold through
large retailers, and continued negative free cash flow Moody's
expects over the next 12 months. Despite the second debt
restructuring, limited prospects for material improvements in cash
flow generation will constrain the company's ability to pay down
debt and keep its high leverage at over 11x debt/EBITDA through
2026 in Moody's base case scenario.
These credit weaknesses are mitigated by the geographic
diversification of its business, diverse end-market industries and
popular product brands. The rating also takes into consideration
the group's improved liquidity and pay-in-kind (PIK) interest for
part of the new loans that supports the company's cash flow.
Moody's expects Apex Tool Ultimate Holdings to have weak liquidity
over the next 12-18 months. This is driven by the company's weak
internal cash flow sources led by the negative free cash flow
Moody's expects during this period, despite increased headroom
under the revolver and larger cash balance on hand.
FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS
Moody's could upgrade the ratings if Apex Tool Ultimate Holdings
meaningfully recovers its profit and attains a more sustainable
capital structure. Moody's also expects the company to maintain at
least adequate liquidity before considering an upgrade.
Moody's could further downgrade the ratings if liquidity
deteriorates, in case of an increased likelihood of another debt
restructuring, or an expectation of weaker recovery in the event of
default.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Manufacturing
published in September 2025.
Apex Tool Ultimate Holdings' Caa3 CFR is two notches below the
scorecard-indicated outcome of Caa1 for the next 12-18 months. The
difference reflects the company's very high debt load and Moody's
expectations of negative free cash flow during this period.
Apex Tool Ultimate Holdings, LLC, headquartered in Charlotte, North
Carolina, is a global manufacturer of hand and power tools for
industrial, commercial, and retail customers. After the debt
restructuring and receipt of regulatory approvals, the company will
be substantially owned by a group of lenders led by TPG Angelo
Gordon and American Industrial Partners. The company recorded about
$1.3 billion of revenues for the 12 months that ended in September
2025.
APOLLO CONSTRUCTION: Gets OK to Use Cash Collateral Until Dec. 16
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa
Division, extended Apollo Construction & Engineering Services,
Inc.'s authority to use cash collateral from November 24 to
December 16.
The court authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral to pay the
expenses set forth in its budget and pay additional amounts subject
to approval by secured creditor, Thomas Kamprath.
As protection for the Debtor's use of the cash collateral, Mr.
Kamprath will receive a monthly payment of $9,000. In addition, the
secured creditor will be granted a first priority perfected
post-petition lien on the cash collateral, matching the validity,
priority and scope of his pre-bankruptcy liens.
The Debtor must also maintain insurance, comply with U.S. Trustee
guidelines, and provide weekly reports, including accounts
receivable aging, budget variances, and cash flow statements.
The order remains in effect through December 16, unless the
Debtor's Chapter 11 case is converted or dismissed, a trustee is
appointed, a bankruptcy plan is confirmed, or the Debtor's
authority to use cash collateral is terminated.
A copy of the court's order and the Debtor's budget is available at
https://shorturl.at/K8oTh from PacerMonitor.com.
The next hearing is scheduled for December 16.
Apollo is a construction company that purchased its business from
Mr. Kamprath prior to filing for bankruptcy. As part of the
purchase, Mr. Kamprath holds a security interest in the Debtor's
accounts, receivables, and other business assets.

ARMY RETIREMENT: S&P Affirms 'BB+' Rating on 2016/2018 Rev. Bonds
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB+' long-term rating on Bexar
County Health Facilities Development Corp., Texas' series 2016 and
2018 revenue bonds, and on New Hope Cultural Education Finance
Corp.'s series 2022 revenue bonds, issued for Army Retirement
Residence Foundation (doing business as the Army Residence
Community; ARC).
The outlook is stable.
S&P said, "We view social risk as neutral in our credit rating
analysis but note that labor turnover rates for long-term care
facilities are generally higher than in the acute care sector.
However, ARC has done well to mitigate this concern with overall
lower turnover rates than sector peers. We consider environmental
and governance factors neutral within our credit rating analysis."
The stable outlook reflects ARC' s healthy balance sheet, which has
provided a cushion through recent softer operating performance and
should remain supportive of the rating, particularly as management
expects increasing DCOH through the outlook period and has no
further debt plans. S&P's outlook further reflects the
organization' s stable enterprise position and recent efforts to
expand and improve eligibility and demand.
S&P said, "We could consider a negative outlook or lower the rating
should ARC' s operating performance not improve as expected, if the
organization issues debt, or if there is not improvement in
unrestricted reserves to more historical levels. We would also view
negatively a weakening in ARC's enterprise profile, particularly
due to lower occupancy and/or demand.
"Given recent operating results and ARC' s small revenue base, we
do not consider a higher rating or improved outlook as likely over
the two-year period."
ATIF INC: 11th Circuit Upholds $80MM Asset Valuation Exclusion
--------------------------------------------------------------
Carolina Bolado of Law360 Bankruptcy Authority reports that the
Eleventh Circuit on Monday, November 24, 2025, upheld a bankruptcy
court's decision to exclude an expert's $80 million valuation of
ATIF Inc.'s 2015 transfer of two real estate parcels and certain
intellectual property assets to Old Republic National Title
Insurance Co. The appellate court found no error in the lower
court's determination, affirming that the valuation methodology did
not meet the evidentiary standards required for inclusion in the
bankruptcy proceedings.
The ruling allows the bankruptcy case to move forward without the
disputed valuation, which had been challenged by creditors seeking
to maximize recoveries. According to the court, the lower court
acted within its discretion in weighing the reliability of expert
testimony and the relevance of the proposed valuation in the
context of the estate's overall accounting of asset transfers, the
report states.

BAUSCH HEALTH: Launches Exchange Offers for 2028 Senior Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------
Bausch Health Companies Inc. announced on November 24, 2025, the
commencement of offers to exchange the Company's outstanding 4.875%
Senior Secured Notes due 2028 and 11.00% Senior Secured Notes due
2028 for up to $1.6 billion aggregate principal amount of new
10.00% Senior Secured Notes due 2032 issued by 1261229 B.C. Ltd.,
the Company's indirect wholly-owned subsidiary , in each case,
pursuant to the terms described in a confidential exchange offer
memorandum dated November 24, 2025.
The New Notes will be treated as a single series with the Issuer's
$4.4 billion principal amount of 10.00% Senior Secured Notes due
2032 that were issued in April 2025 and will be issued under the
same indenture.
Further, the New Notes are expected to have the same CUSIP numbers
as (except that New Notes issued pursuant to Regulation S under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended will trade separately under a
different CUSIP number until at least 40 days after the issue date
of the New Notes and thereafter, subject to the terms of the
indenture and the applicable procedures of the depositary), and to
be fungible for trading purposes with, the Existing NumberCo Notes.
The Offers are scheduled to expire on December 23, 2025, unless
extended in accordance with applicable laws and the terms of the
Offers. The Company is conducting the Offers to manage its
intermediate term debt maturities as permitted under its
outstanding debt agreements.
Subject to the conditions to the Offers, the Offerors expect to
accept validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) Existing Senior
Secured Notes such that:
(x) the 11.00% Notes will comprise 52.6% of the aggregate principal
amount of the Existing Senior Secured Notes accepted and
(y) the 4.875% Notes will comprise 47.4% of the aggregate principal
amount of the Existing Senior Secured Notes accepted, subject to
adjustment as set forth in the Exchange Offer Memorandum, in each
case on a pro rata basis among the Eligible Holders of each such
series of Existing Senior Secured Notes in proportion to the
aggregate principal amount of each such series of Existing Senior
Secured Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or
prior to the Early Tender Time or Expiration Time (each as
described in the Exchange Offer Memorandum), as applicable, up to
the Maximum Notes Amount.
If acceptance of any series of Existing Senior Secured Notes in
accordance with the Target Ratio would result in the Maximum Notes
Amount of New Notes failing to be issued, then the Offerors would,
subject to the conditions to the Offers, accept additional Existing
Senior Secured Notes of the other series to permit the Maximum
Notes Amount of New Notes to be issued on the settlement date.
Existing Senior Secured Notes validly tendered (and not validly
withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Time will be accepted
first for exchange on a pro rata basis subject to the Target Ratio
with such other Existing Senior Secured Notes validly tendered (and
not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Time and
only thereafter will Existing Senior Secured Notes validly tendered
after the Early Tender Time and before the Expiration Time be
accepted for exchange on a pro rata basis subject to the Target
Ratio with such other Existing Senior Secured Notes validly
tendered after the Early Tender Time, in each case subject to the
Maximum Notes Amount.
Certain holders of the Existing Senior Secured Notes, who hold
approximately $1,545 million aggregate principal amount of existing
Senior Secured Notes, collectively representing approximately 46%
of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Existing
Senior Secured Notes, including approximately:
(i) 39% of the 4.875% Notes and
(ii) 52% of the 11.00% Notes, have entered into a transaction
support agreement with the Offerors, dated November 24, 2025,
pursuant to which the Participating Holders have agreed to, subject
to the terms and conditions thereof, timely participate in the
Offers and exchange and tender (or cause to be tendered) all of
their Existing Senior Secured Notes in accordance with the terms of
the Offers.
In addition, the Transaction Support Agreement provides that the
Offerors and the Participating Holders will support and take all
commercially reasonable actions necessary to facilitate the
implementation and consummation of the Offers, including, without
limitation:
(i) taking commercially reasonable actions to support and complete
the Offers, and
(ii) refraining from taking any actions inconsistent with or that
would frustrate the purpose and intent of the Offers.
In addition, the Transaction Support Agreement contains certain
covenants on the part of the Offerors, which may limit or otherwise
restrict the rights of the Offerors with respect to the Offers.

In May 2025, Fitch Ratings has affirmed and withdrawn Bausch Health
Companies Inc.'s (BHC) and Bausch Health Americas, Inc.'s (BHA)
Company Default Ratings (IDRs) at 'CCC+'. Prior to the withdrawal,
the ratings remained in the 'CCC' category reflecting the long-term
refinancing risk, non-zero risk of a distressed debt exchange for
later maturities, and a weakening balance sheet when XIFAXAN
revenues decline and if BHC separates Bausch + Lomb Corporation.
Fitch has also affirmed and withdrawn the instrument ratings
including the first lien debt issued by 1261229 B.C. Ltd and BHC at
'B' with a Recovery Rating of 'RR2', the second lien debt (issued
by BHC) at 'CCC-'/'RR6' and the unsecured notes (issued by BHC and
BHA) at 'CC'/'RR6'.
BESTWALL LLC: District Court Rejects Asbestos Panel's Appeal Bid
----------------------------------------------------------------
Chief Judge Frank W. Volk of the United States District Court for
the Western District of North Carolina denied the consolidated
motion for leave to appeal filed by Wilson Buckingham, Agelika
Weiss, Robert Semian and Other Clients of MRHFM, and the Official
Committee of Asbestos Personal Injury Claimant in the bankruptcy
case of Bestwall LLC.
In November 2017, Bestwall petitioned for relief under Chapter 11.
In 2018, the Official Committee of Asbestos Claimants sought
dismissal of Bestwall's Chapter 11 petition under section 1112(b),
contending the petition was filed in bad faith inasmuch as Bestwall
was a solvent entity. Applying the two-prong test for bad faith
dismissals articulated by the Court of Appeals in Carolin Corp. v.
Miller, 886 F.2d 693, 700-01 (4th Cir. 1989) and its progeny, the
bankruptcy court denied the Committee's Motion.
The Committee subsequently sought leave to appeal to the district
court under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 158(a)(3).
The Committee again moved to dismiss in 2023, this time contending
the bankruptcy court lacked subject-matter jurisdiction over a
solvent debtor like Bestwall. Appellant Wilson Buckingham also
sought dismissal at this time inasmuch as he had not yet been
diagnosed with mesothelioma when the Committee first moved to
dismiss in 2018. Like the Committee previously, Mr. Buckingham
moved to dismiss on bad faith grounds under Carolin. The bankruptcy
court denied both the Committee and Mr. Buckingham's Motions.
Respecting Mr. Buckingham's Motion, the bankruptcy court concluded
its 2019 Opinion and Order rejecting the Committee's identical bad
faith contentions under Carolin was the law of the case inasmuch as
neither the new facts, nor law cited by Mr. Buckingham warranted
reconsideration of its previous ruling.
In denying their dismissal motions, Appellants contend the
bankruptcy courts in this District have misapplied Carolin to avoid
the foundational issue of bad faith and have thus effectively
denied the right of thousands of claimants to a jury trial. They
assert leave to appeal is warranted inasmuch as this appeal
involves:
(1) a controlling issue of law,
(2) as to which there are substantial grounds for differences of
opinion, and
(3) immediate appeal will materially advance the termination of
the litigation.
Appellants assert the bankruptcy courts' dismissal orders
demonstrate there is substantial ground for a difference of opinion
as to the primary issue of whether the Debtors' full-pay bankruptcy
cases should be permitted to continue. They contend an immediate
appeal of the bad faith issue will materially advance the
termination of these cases given that reversal of the dismissal
orders will dispose of the entirety of all pending Texas Two-Step
cases in this District.
The Debtors disagree. The Debtors assert Appellants' requested
appeal involves no controlling question of law inasmuch as
Appellants' asserted issue is merely a challenge to the bankruptcy
courts' application of settled precedent. They contend the
requested appeal does not involve any of the exceptional
circumstances needed to break from the standard practice of leaving
appellate review until final judgment.
Judge Volk holds, "The controlling decision in Carolin, and its
rigorous bad faith dismissal standard, governs both solvent and
insolvent debtors. The bankruptcy courts simply applied settled
precedent. Although the result is doubtless frustrating for
Appellants, their consolidated request to appeal is plainly
meritless."

About Bestwall LLC
Bestwall LLC -- http://www.Bestwall.com/-- was created in an
internal corporate restructuring and now holds asbestos
liabilities. Bestwall's asbestos liabilities relate primarily to
joint systems products manufactured by Bestwall Gypsum Company, a
company acquired by Georgia-Pacific in 1965. The former Bestwall
Gypsum entity manufactured joint compounds containing small amounts
of chrysotile asbestos; the manufacture of these
asbestos-containing products ceased in 1977.
Bestwall's non-debtor subsidiary, GP Industrial Plasters LLC
("PlasterCo"), develops, manufactures, sells and distributes gypsum
plaster products, including gypsum floor underlayment, industrial
plaster, metal casting plaster, industrial tooling plaster, dental
plaster, medical plaster, arts and crafts plaster, pottery plaster
and general purpose plaster.
On Nov. 2, 2017, Bestwall sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr.
W.D.N.C. Case No. 17-31795) in an effort to equitably and
permanently resolve all its current and future asbestos claims. The
Debtor estimated assets and debt of $500 million to $1 billion. It
has no funded indebtedness.
The Hon. Laura T. Beyer is the case judge.
The Debtor tapped Jones Day as bankruptcy counsel; Robinson,
Bradshaw & Hinson, P.A., as local counsel; Schachter Harris, LLP as
special litigation counsel for medicine science issues; King &
Spalding as special counsel for asbestos matters; and Bates White,
LLC, as asbestos consultants. Donlin Recano LLC is the claims and
noticing agent.
On Nov. 8, 2017, the U.S. bankruptcy administrator appointed an
official committee of asbestos claimants in the Debtor's case. The
committee retained Montgomery McCracken Walker & Rhoads, LLP as
legal counsel; and Hamilton Stephens Steele + Martin, PLLC and JD
Thompson Law as local counsel.
On Feb. 22, 2018, the court approved the appointment of Sander L.
Esserman as the future claimants' representative in the Debtor's
case. Mr. Esserman tapped Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor, LLP, as
legal counsel; Hull & Chandler, P.A., as local counsel; Ankura
Consulting Group, LLC, as claims evaluation consultant; and FTI

BOWES IN-HOME: Court Extends Cash Collateral Access to Jan. 20
--------------------------------------------------------------
Bowes In-Home Care, Inc. received third interim approval from the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois to use
cash collateral.
The court's third interim order authorized the Debtor to use the

January 20, 2026, subject to the terms of the budget. No deviations
or additional payments are allowed without prior written consent
from the SBA or further court order.
The Debtor projects total operational expenses of $119,800 for
December and January 2026.
The SBA asserts a blanket lien on all assets of the Debtor in the
amount of at least $1.85 million.
In case of any diminution in value of its pre-bankruptcy
collateral, SBA will be granted replacement liens on all existing
and future assets of the Debtor including accounts receivable,
inventory, equipment, and the proceeds thereof. These replacement
liens maintain the same validity, priority and extent as those held
prior to the petition date.
As additional protection, the Debtor was authorized to use cash
collateral to pay insurance premiums to cover the collateral from
damage.
A status hearing is scheduled for January 20, 2026.

BRANDHOOT LLC: Gets Interim OK to Use Cash Collateral
-----------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Minnesota entered an
interim order allowing Brandhoot, LLC to temporarily use cash
collateral.
The court determined that the Debtor has an immediate need to
access cash collateral to prevent irreparable harm to the business
and that there is a reasonable likelihood the Debtor will obtain
final approval.
The court authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral until the
final hearing on December 1 in accordance with its cash flow
projections for the interim period.
The U.S. Small Business Administration and any creditor claiming a
lien on the cash collateral will be granted replacement liens on
post-petition property, with the same validity, priority, and
effect as their pre-bankruptcy liens. The replacement liens do not
apply to Chapter 5 causes of action and their proceeds.
The Debtor believes that the SBA is the only creditor that has an
interest in its cash collateral, given the size of its debts and
the actual amount of cash collateral on hand. As of the petition
date, the Debtor's cash collateral has an estimated value at
liquidation of $66,512.24.

BRIDGE PLAZA: Unsecureds Will Get 30% of Claims over 5 Years
------------------------------------------------------------
Bridge Plaza Condominium Association, Inc. filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey a Disclosure
Statement describing Plan of Reorganization dated November 25,
2025.
Established in 1988, the Debtor was formed to administer, regulate,
and maintain the common elements of Bridge Plaza Condominiums and
serve as the owners' association for a commercial condominium
office complex situated in Manalapan, New Jersey.
Its main role is to oversee the management and upkeep of the common
areas and shared amenities within the office park for the benefit
of the unit owners as well as collecting dues, imposing assessments
as needed, and performing the day-to-day operational functions
necessary to manage the association effectively.
Faced with significant judgments, costly litigation outcomes, and a
diminishing revenue stream, the Debtor determined that
reorganization under Chapter 11 was necessary to stabilize its
finances, preserve essential operations, and pursue an orderly
restructuring for the benefit of the entire membership.
This is a reorganization plan, wherein the Proponent seeks to
accomplish payments under the plan by reorganizing its assets and
liabilities under Chapter 11, Subchapter V. The Effective Date of
the proposed plan is the later of (a) thirty days following the
date on which the Order of confirmation is signed by the United
States Bankruptcy Court, or (b) the date on which the order of
confirmation becomes final.
Class 1 consists of General Unsecured Claims. The allowed unsecured
claims total $1,271,118.49. This Class shall be paid 30% of allowed
claims paid monthly over 5 years. This Class shall receive a
monthly payment of $6,335.60. This Class is impaired.
The Plan will be funded primarily through dues and assessments
collected from unit owners, collection of accounts receivable and
other claims, and the potential reduction or elimination of the
Debtor's two largest unsecured claims through the appellate
process.
To meet its obligations to pay administrative expenses on the
Effective Date, the Debtor anticipates imposing a special
assessment on its members. Thereafter, as monthly installments come
due under the Plan, the Debtor will fund such installments through
additional assessments, and, if necessary, increased association
fees imposed on members.
A substantial portion of the funds necessary to implement and
support the Plan will be generated through these assessments, which
have increased over the past several years. Accordingly, payment of
thirty of the allowed unsecured claims represents the maximum
feasible distribution the Debtor can reasonably commit to under the
current financial circumstances, given the ongoing contributions
required of the unit owners to sustain the Plan.
The Debtor's financial projections are to be provided. Under the
Plan, a thirty percent distribution to unsecured creditors over a
five-year period will require the Debtor to make sixty monthly
installments of approximately $6,335.60 per month. The Debtor
intends to raise the funds necessary to satisfy these obligations
through assessments and, if needed, increased association fees
imposed on the unit owners.

BRIGHT GREEN: Unsecured Creditors Will Get 84% of Claims in Plan
----------------------------------------------------------------
Bright Green Corporation filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the District of New Mexico a Disclosure Statement describing
Chapter 11 Plan dated November 25, 2025.
The Debtor is a publicly-traded startup company founded in 2019 and
focused on production of plant-derived controlled substances for
multiple markets, including pharmaceutical companies and government
and university research institutions.
The Debtor's only significant, marketable asset is a specially
designed agricultural production facility in Grants, New Mexico
(the "Facility"), which is valued at approximately $5.6 million.
The Facility consists of a 70-acre parcel of land on agricultural
property, which includes a completed 22-acre greenhouse structure,
and a 40-acre parcel of land nearby.
To date, the Debtor's operations have consisted of preparation for
the intended future production of controlled substances, including
(i) acquiring the real estate where the Facility is located, (ii)
constructing the Facility itself, and (iii) obtaining necessary
government approvals for Debtor's intended operations.
The Plan proposes to issue convertible Preferred Shares to Lynn
Stockwell ("Stockwell"), who is its CEO, senior secured lender, and
Administrative Claimant in the Case. All Secured and Unsecured
Claims held by Stockwell will be fully satisfied in exchange for
Preferred Shares. Additionally, Stockwell will pay $5,000,0000 (the
"New Value Funding") in exchange for the convertible Preferred
Shares.
The New Value Funding will be used to satisfy claims against the
Debtor's bankruptcy estate. The Debtor estimates that general
unsecured creditors will receive approximately 84% of the value of
their claims under the Plan, substantially more than they would
receive in a liquidation scenario.
Further, because all Administrative Claimants and Creditors' Claims
will be fully satisfied (even if such Creditors do not receive
payment of 100% of their Claims) through the New Value Funding, the
Disclosure Statement does not include financial projections of
income and expenses, as the Reorganized Debtor's post-confirmation
operations are irrelevant to the payments afforded to Creditors
under the Plan.
Under the Plan, Holders of Common Shares in the Debtor will retain
such Shares in the Reorganized Debtor but will undergo a Reverse
Stock Split transaction at a 1-for-50 ratio. Because the Preferred
Shares that Stockwell will receive will convert to Common Shares,
the proportionate interests of Holders of Common Shares are subject
to dilution.
Class 3 consists of Allowed General Unsecured Claims. After
Administrative Expenses and Class 2 Claims have been satisfied out
of the New Value Funding, Class 3 claims will receive a pro rata
share of the remaining amount of the New Value Funding, up to 100%
of the Allowed amount of each Claim and without interest. The
Debtor estimates that Class 3 Claims will receive a Cash
distribution equal to approximately 84% of their Claims. Class 3 is
Impaired, and Holders are entitled to vote on the Plan.
Class 5 consists of Allowed Equity Interests in the Debtor, namely
Common Shares and Warrants in the Debtor. Immediately on the
Effective Date, all Common Shares held by Holders of Allowed Class
5 Interests will undergo the Reverse Stock Split. As a result of
the Reverse Stock Split, all shareholders will receive 1 common
share in exchange for every 50 common shares held prior to the
Reverse Stock split (a 1-for-50 ratio).
The Plan will be consummated through two primary transactions: the
Preferred Shares Issuance and the Reverse Stock Split.
Preferred Shares Issuance and the New Value Funding. The Plan will
consummate the Preferred Share Issuance that was previously
approved at the Annual Meeting without the need for further
corporate action. The Preferred Shares will be convertible into
common shares of the Reorganized Debtor at a rate of 14 Common
Shares per Preferred Share.
In consideration for the Preferred Shares, Stockwell will (1) pay
$5,000,000 in New Value Funding to the Debtor, (2) forego any Cash
distribution on account of her Class 1 Claim, and (3) forego any
Cash distribution on account of any accrued and unpaid
Administrative Expense Claims. The New Value Funding is the sole
source of funding used to satisfy Claims against the Debtor.
Reverse Stock Split. The Plan also consummates the Reverse Stock
Split as previously approved at the Annual Meeting, under which all
Holders of Common Shares will receive 1 common share in exchange
for every 50 Common Shares held prior to the Reverse Stock Split.
Any de minimis "odd lots" which result in retention of less than
100 Shares after the Reverse Stock Split shall be canceled. The
Debtor may implement the Reverse Stock Split without the need for
further corporate action.
The Bankruptcy Court has scheduled a preliminary hearing to
consider confirmation of the Plan pursuant to Section 1129 of the
Bankruptcy Code on February 4, 2026 at 9:30 a.m.

CACHCOPA LLC: Creditors to Get Proceeds From Liquidation
--------------------------------------------------------
Cachcopa, LLC filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle
District of Florida a Subchapter V Plan of Liquidation dated
November 24, 2025.
The Debtor is a career consulting firm that historically
specialized in helping C-level executive and senior professionals
navigate career transitions and secured new leadership
opportunities.
The Debtor was involved in a series of transactions beginning on or
about May 1, 2023 that resulted in its present state of insolvency.
In the months and years following the 2023 transaction, the
Debtor's financial condition deteriorated, likely due to the
obligations imposed upon the Debtor under the share repurchase
agreement. The Debtor's financial condition continued to
deteriorate markedly following the December 12, 2024 transaction.
Compounding those issues, the management transition between
incumbent management and Ms. Ballinger-Moles was not properly
implemented.
As a result of the foregoing issues, the Debtor filed a voluntary
petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on
August 26, 2025 (the "Petition Date"). Subsequent to the Petition
Date, the Debtor determined that its financial condition and
deteriorated level of operations would preclude an effective
reorganization. Consequently, the Debtor shifted its efforts to
achieving a structured wind-down of operations that would result in
the maximum recovery possible for priority and unsecured
creditors.
To that end, the Debtor has prioritized collecting accounts
receivable, completing outstanding customer engagements, and taking
steps necessary to enable former employees to access and withdraw
their 401k account balances. The Debtor has also entered into a
compromise with its European affiliate that will provide certain
financial support through the liquidation process. The Debtor
believes that this Chapter 11 liquidating plan will result in the
maximum recovery for priority and unsecured creditors.
This is a liquidating plan. The payments to be made under this Plan
are contingent upon the Debtor's ability to collect further
accounts receivable and to obtain recoveries on account of estate
Causes of Action.
Class 4 includes all Unsecured Claims. Class 2 is impaired by this
Plan. Each Creditor holding an Allowed Unsecured Claim shall
receive its Pro Rata Share of any funds available from the
liquidation of the Debtor's assets as soon as practicable following
the Effective Date and after payment in full of any Allowed
Administrative Expense Claims, Priority Tax Claims, and Allowed
Class 1 Claims, which Distribution(s) shall be in full satisfaction
of any liabilities of the Debtor and the Estate arising out of the
Class 4 Claims.
Class 5 includes Equity Security Holders of the Debtor. Class 5 is
impaired by the Plan. Equity Security Holders shall retain their
ownership in the Debtor.

Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York that granted
recognition of Canterbury Securities, Ltd.'s Cayman Islands
bankruptcy proceeding and related relief under Chapter 15 of the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
In the Bankruptcy Court, Erin Winczura, Canterbury's former owner
and director, opposed recognition and the related relief, and moved
to dismiss the Chapter 15 proceeding. Winczura now appeals the
Bankruptcy Court's denial of that motion.
Winczura is a Canadian national and Cayman Islands resident
Karen Scott and Russell Homer, the appellees in this case, are the
joint official liquidators of Canterbury. They were appointed such
by the Financial Services Division of the Grand Court of the Cayman
Islands.
FDL Lawsuit
Between approximately 2015 and late 2023, Winczura, Canterbury's
founder, was its owner and chief executive. In May 2018, Canterbury
entered into a brokerage agreement with Fortunate Drift Ltd., a
company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, to hold certain
NASDAQ-listed shares ("YRIV shares") on behalf of FDL. To help FDL
raise more capital, Winczura introduced FDL representatives to PFS
Ltd., a Cayman Islands company she owned, as a potential source of
financing.
In approximately late 2018, FDL filed suit against Canterbury in
the Cayman Court. It alleged that Canterbury had unlawfully:
(1) refused to return FDL's YRIV shares, worth more than $50
million;
(2) sold $20 million of such shares; and
(3) kept the sale proceeds and FDL's remaining YRIV shares.
FDL brought common law claims for breach of fiduciary duty, breach
of contract, conversion, and unjust enrichment.
Canterbury filed counterclaims and asserted affirmative defenses
based on, inter alia, illegality, unclean hands, and conspiracy. In
brief, it alleged that FDL had falsely induced it to provide
brokerage services as part of a scheme to manipulate YRIV's share
price.
The Cayman Court found for FDL on its breach of contract claim and
reserved as to the amount of damages, subject to the Nevada Court's
determination whether PFS had waived the put option.
The Cayman Court rejected Canterbury's affirmative defenses and
counterclaims as unsupported. It found no evidence of market
manipulation concerning YRIV, no evidence of unclean hands, and no
evidence of fraudulent representation as to FDL's beneficial
ownership in connection with the brokerage agreement.
Appeal
Winczura argues that recognizing the Cayman proceedings and
granting related relief is manifestly contrary to U.S. public
policy under Section 1506, and that the Bankruptcy Court erred in
denying her motion to dismiss. She claims that the Cayman
proceedings revealed "a multimillion-dollar securities fraud," in
which FDL and other unspecified actors sold securities at
artificially inflated prices in violation of U.S. securities laws.
Were the foreign representatives to return assets to Canterbury's
creditors, she argues, they would be transferring "fraud proceeds"
in violation of anti–money laundering laws and regulations. She
argues that the Bankruptcy Court read Section 1506 too narrowly in
purportedly holding that, absent procedural error in the Cayman
case, it was compelled to recognize the Cayman proceedings.
Reversal is necessary, she argues, because recognition would offend
U.S. public policy of "maintaining fair and transparent securities
markets and curtailing money laundering."
The foreign representatives defend the Bankruptcy Court's
application of Section 1506. It correctly concluded, they argue,
that there was no basis to find that either:
(1) the Cayman proceedings were procedurally deficient, or
(2) recognition and related relief would harm U.S. statutory or
constitutional rights.
They assert that the evidence developed in those proceedings does
not support Winczura's allegations of wrongdoing by the foreign
representatives, FDL, or persons other than herself; that the
Cayman Court rightly found that Winzcura misappropriated more than
$20 million from the debtor and repeatedly violated court orders to
provide information as to the missing money's whereabouts; and that
the Cayman proceedings gave Winczura a full opportunity to make the
arguments she makes here. They cast Winczura's Section 1506
challenge as an improper collateral attack on the Cayman
proceedings.
Judge Engelmayer holds, "The foreign representatives are correct.
The Bankruptcy Court correctly found Section 1506 inapplicable,
because recognition of the Cayman proceedings and related relief
would not offend U.S. public policy."

COMPLETELY CONCRETE: Gets Final OK to Use Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California
entered a final order authorizing Completely Concrete Structures
Inc. to use cash collateral.
The court authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral in
accordance with the budget. The Debtor may vary overall spending by
up to 15% and may shift amounts within approved budget categories,
provided that no unauthorized categories are added.
Payments to insiders are prohibited until all Bankruptcy Code and
Local Rule 2014-1 requirements are satisfied, including notice and
disclosures.
As adequate protection for secured creditors, the Debtor must make
monthly payments of $1,800 to the California Employment Development
Department, $2,550 to the U.S. Small Business Administration, and
$3,000 to the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, these secured
creditors will be granted replacement liens on post-petition assets
and proceeds, with the same validity, priority and amount as their
pre-bankruptcy liens.
The Debtor must also remain current on all post-petition taxes and
maintain insurance coverage as additional adequate protection.

creditors including the SBA ($500,000), the IRS (over $7.1 million
from two tax liens), and the California Employment Development
Department (multiple tax liens totaling nearly $900,000). The
Debtor asserts that the California Employment Development
Department holds the first-priority lien, followed by the SBA,
while the IRS, which filed its tax liens later, is deemed to be
wholly unsecured based on the asset values.

DENOYER-GEPPERT: Gets Interim OK to Use Cash Collateral
-------------------------------------------------------
Denoyer-Geppert Science Company received interim approval from the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois,
Eastern Division, to use cash collateral to fund operations.
The court authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral through
January 7, 2026, in accordance with its budget, with disbursements
capped at 110% of budgeted amounts.
As protection, the court granted secured creditors and taxing
authorities, including the IRS and the Illinois Department of
Unemployment Security replacement liens on all post-petition
property of the Debtor, matching the validity, priority, and scope
of their pre-bankruptcy liens.
As additional protection, the Debtor was ordered to maintain
insurance, keep its property in good repair, and deposit all funds
into its post-petition accounts, using them only as permitted by
the order.
The interim order is available at https://is.gd/EgtABk from
PacerMonitor.com.
The next hearing is set for January 6, 2026.
Although Denoyer-Geppert is not currently operating, its business
and assets retain significant value and that a purchaser is being
secured who is expected to pay most or all outstanding debt. The
Debtor asserts that immediate but limited use of cash collateral is
necessary to preserve asset value and stabilize the business while
a sale is being completed.
Prior to the bankruptcy filing, three merchant cash advance
companies -- Bizfunder, Cloudfund, and ODK Capital -- filed UCC-1
financing statements purporting to secure future receivables,
though the Debtor questions the validity and perfection of those
liens. In addition, the IRS and Illinois Department of Employment
Security hold tax liens.

EDGEWELL PERSONAL: S&P Lowers ICR to 'BB-', Outlook Stable
----------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its issuer credit rating on U.S.-based
Edgewell Personal Care Co. and its issue-level rating on its senior
unsecured debt to 'BB-' from 'BB'. The recovery rating on the
senior unsecured debt remains '3', indicating its expectations for
meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 60%) recovery in the event
of a payment default.
The stable outlook reflects our view that Edgewell will reduce S&P
Global Ratings-adjusted leverage to about 4.5x by the end of fiscal
2026 despite a challenging operating environment and elevated
restructuring and divestiture-related costs. This assumes the
company will prioritize using the proceeds from the sale of its
feminine care business to deleverage as opposed to shareholder
returns.
Edgewell reported weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter fiscal 2025
financial results and guidance for 2026.
S&P said, "We view the announced sale of the underperforming
feminine care business to Essity as a credit positive and margin
accretive, notwithstanding stranded costs that will weigh on
near-term cash flow and credit metrics.
"As a result, we no longer believe the company will strengthen
credit metrics in fiscal 2026 consistent with our prior
expectations, which had included reducing adjusted leverage to
below 4x. Rather, we now forecast leverage to remain elevated at
about 4.5x in fiscal 2026.
"The downgrade reflects our view that credit-measure improvement
will take longer than previously anticipated and could be further
delayed if macroeconomic conditions, competitive pressures, or both
don't ease. For the fiscal year ended Sept. 30, 2025, Edgewell
reported a 1.3% decline in net sales and a 15% decline S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted EBITDA." Its performance was hurt by:
-- Weaker consumption trends;
-- Execution missteps in its feminine care business earlier in the
year that contributed to items being out of stock and a subsequent
loss of market share;
-- Another weak sun care season, exacerbated by intense
competition that resulted in heavy promotional behavior;
-- Substantial restructuring costs related to its North American
business streamlining and facility consolidation; and
-- Meaningful exposure to tariffs.
In addition, adjusted debt was higher than expected, as the company
used its revolver to fund inventory purchases ahead of tariff
implementation and to fund share repurchases. Consequently,
adjusted leverage deteriorated to 4.9x at the end of fiscal 2025
compared to our previous forecast of 4.2x.
S&P said, "We expect most of the headwinds will persist into fiscal
2026, which will continue to pressure Edgewell' s performance. We
forecast flat organic revenues in fiscal 2026, affected by weak
consumer spending and heavy competition but partially offset by
benefits from increased advertising and promotional spending.
Retailer planograms next reset in February/March 2026, which will
provide the company an opportunity to increase sales. We expect
adjusted EBITDA margins will remain well below historical levels at
about 12.4% in fiscal 2026, down from 12.9% in fiscal 2025, weighed
down by the impact of tariffs, limited pricing power, and continued
promotional intensity in most of its sub-segments. Our forecast
assumes meaningful sequential margin improvement in the second half
of fiscal 2026 and in fiscal 2027 as the company cycles through the
higher cost of raw materials and restructuring-related costs.
This--along with a reduction of gross debt using the feminine care
asset sale proceeds--should improve adjusted leverage to about 4.5x
by fiscal 2026 and about 4x by fiscal 2027.
"We consider the announced sale of the feminine care business to
Essity as a credit positive, notwithstanding stranded costs that
will weigh on near-term cash flow and credit metrics. Although
Edgewell' s feminine care portfolio includes recognized brands such
as Playtex, Carefree, and Stayfree, this segment has consistently
underperformed the rest of the business (a reported segment profit
margin of 6% in fiscal 2025 compared to a company-consolidated
profit margin of 14%). We believe this is indicative of the heavy
competition with much larger, well-capitalized operators as well as
its recent execution missteps relating to the Carefree rollout.
It's our understanding that the feminine care business was run
largely separately from the rest of the business, including
dedicated production and marketing teams. In addition, management
believes that although the sales teams are integrated with the rest
of the business, it won't face any material revenue dis-synergies
following the divestiture. Therefore, we don't incorporate any
potential loss of sales in the remaining business. Our base-case
forecast excludes the feminine care business from the beginning of
fiscal 2026.
"We expect the company will focus on deleveraging in line with its
net leverage target of 2x-3x. This compares to 3.9x as of Sept. 30,
2025. We assume Edgewell will focus on repaying its outstanding
revolver borrowings of about $140 million as of Sept. 30, 2025,
primarily using the net proceeds from the sale of the feminine care
business, which we estimate will be about $270 million after taxes
and transaction costs. Further, we expect the company will maintain
a prudent capital-allocation policy. This will include modest
dividends of about $30 million annually and share repurchases
limited to offsetting dilution of about $15 million annually until
it can reduce net leverage to its target range. While the company
hasn't provided a definitive guide on the use of the asset sale
proceeds, we assume it will use them primarily for debt repayment
and for ongoing operations (including reinvesting in the brands and
capital expenditure related to the consolidation of its
facilities). The company might also occasionally undertake bolt-on
acquisitions that could temporarily weaken its credit metrics. We
also note the board has authorized a new share-buyback program of
up to $100 million, effective Nov. 13, 2025, which we expect the
company will use sparingly over the near term.
"We continue to assess the company' s business risk as fair. Our
view is underpinned by its participation in relatively stable
categories, well-recognized brands with decent market share, a
portfolio of innovative smaller brands (Billie, Cremo, Bulldog),
long-standing retailer relationships, and broad geographic
diversification. At the same time, we also consider the highly
competitive nature of the industry--both from well-established
brands owned by larger operators such as Procter & Gamble Co.
(P&G), Unilever U.S. Inc., and Kenvue Inc., as well as from
innovative new brands. The industry also has substantial
seasonality and relies on satisfactory weather conditions for its
sun care business. Further, Edgewell needs to continuously innovate
and spend on advertising and promotions to maintain its market
share. We view its recent organizational changes--including the
simplification of its North American operations and efforts to
streamline its wet shave production facilities (such as
consolidating the Mexican facilities into one facility and building
a new, highly automated blade manufacturing plant)--as beneficial
in the medium term once the costs related to these efforts cycle
off, which will likely be in fiscal 2027. Further, we expect
management' s renewed focus on reinvesting in its five core brands
(Schick, Billie, Hawaiian Tropic, Banana Boat, and Cremo) in the
U.S., which account for about 80% of total sales in the region,
will benefit top-line and market-share growth over the coming
quarters. This is partially offset by weak overall category growth
in a challenging macroeconomic environment. Edgewell' s
international business continues to perform well, posting positive
organic growth consistently over the past five years.
"The stable outlook reflects our view that Edgewell will improve
S&P Global Ratings-adjusted leverage to about 4.5x by end of fiscal
2026, despite a challenging operating environment and elevated
restructuring and divestiture-related costs. This view is supported
by our expectation that the company will prioritize using the
feminine care business sale proceeds to deleverage as opposed to
shareholder returns."
S&P could lower its ratings if it expects leverage will be
sustained above 5x or we unfavorably reassess Edgewell' s business
risk profile. This could happen if:
-- Operating performance falls short of our expectations due to
reduced consumer spending, persistent inflation, or tariff
headwinds;
-- Competition from larger rivals--including online--escalates,
resulting in market-share losses;
-- Contributions from productivity initiatives are lower than
expected;
-- The company experiences supply-chain disruptions or loses shelf
space at retailers; or
-- Financial policies become more aggressive than we expect,
including materially higher share repurchases, multiple bolt-on
acquisitions, or a transformational acquisition.
Although unlikely over the next year, S&P could raise the rating if
Edgewell improves its operating performance and demonstrates
conservative financial policies, such that S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted leverage is sustained below 4x. This could happen
if:
-- The company successfully executes its growth, innovation, and
cost-savings strategy;
-- Consumption trends for the company's products remain healthy;
and
-- It reduces gross debt using the feminine care divestiture
proceeds.
EIG MANAGEMENT: Moody's Affirms 'Ba2' CFR, Outlook Remains Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings affirmed the Ba2 long term corporate family rating
and Ba2-PD probability of default rating of EIG Management Company
LLC ("EIG"), and the Ba2 ratings on the company's backed senior
secured revolving credit facility due May 2027 and backed senior
secured term loan B due May 2029. The outlook remains stable.
RATINGS RATIONALE
The Ba2 rating reflects the growth in the company's assets under
management and decrease in leverage over the last twelve months,
after a strong period of distributions over the last five years.
This comes after EIG had a few funds and investments wind down over
the last year, and consequently has experienced declining revenue
due to lower management and advisory fees and unrealized
performance allocations. Low commodity prices have also been a
headwind, but investment in green energy and carbon transition
projects should pick up in coming years in part as a result of the
spike in artificial intelligence infrastructure investments amid
the growing global demand for power generation. Additionally, EIG
has some funds ramping up and approximately over $3 billion in dry
powder for new investments, and should see the benefits of these
initiatives emerge over the next few years.
The rating affirmation is supported by the long-term performance of
EIG's investment funds, the expected growth of assets under
management from its current fundraising activities, and the
increasing duration of the company's assets under management from
recent strategic initiatives.
The Ba2 rating reflects EIG's long experience investing in energy,
infrastructure, and power sectors; breadth and global diversity of
both its investment program and client base within its areas of
expertise. The company's rating is constrained by its modest scale,
specialization in a single sector of investment expertise and
industries related to carbon extraction, leverage on a pro forma
basis of approximately 4.6x, as calculated by us, and a difficult
fundraising environment.
FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS
The following factors could lead to an upgrade of EIG's rating: 1)
increased scale (annual revenue growth in excess of 10%); 2)
further balance sheet deleveraging, sustaining debt/EBITDA (as
defined by us) below 3.0x, and; 3) greater diversification of its
sources of capital, including additional permanent capital
vehicles. The following factors could lead to a downgrade of EIG's
rating: 1) leverage elevated above 4.5x for a sustained period; 2)
challenges in raising new investment funds; 3) decline in scale due
to performance weakness or AUM instability, and; 4) weak response
to ESG challenges, particularly carbon transition opportunities.
EIG Management Company LLC, headquartered in Washington DC, is an
alternative asset manager with over $24 billion in AUM as of
September 30, 2025.
The principal methodology used in these ratings was Asset Managers
published in May 2024.
The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.

EMMA PROPERTIES: Seeks Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in Illinois
--------------------------------------------------------
On November 10, 2025, Emma Properties LLC initiated Chapter 11
bankruptcy proceedings in the Northern District of Illinois. The
Debtor reports liabilities between $100,001 and $1,000,000 owed to

About Emma Properties LLC
Emma Properties LLC is a limited liability company.

Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. Case No. 25-17369) on November 10, 2025.

and estimated liabilities between $100,001 and $1,000,000.
Honorable Bankruptcy Judge Deborah L. Thorne oversees the case.
ENNIS I-45 11: Claims to be Paid from Property Sale Proceeds
------------------------------------------------------------
Ennis I-45 11 Acre, LLC filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Northern District of Texas a Disclosure Statement describing
Plan of Liquidation dated November 24, 2025.
The Debtor is a Texas limited liability company that operates a
luxury RV Park (the "RV Park") at 590 S Interstate 45, Ennis, Texas
75119 (the "Real Property"), within 30 miles of Dallas and less
than a quarter mile from Buc-ee's on I-45.
On April 25, 2025, the Debtor filed an application with the
Bankruptcy Court to retain Marcus & Millichap Inc. ("M&M"),
effective as of the Petition Date. The Bankruptcy Court approved
M&M's employment on June 4, 2025. By May 20, 2025, M&M had
commenced a multifaceted marketing effort and conducted two rounds
of offers on the Property on June 4 and June 11, 2025.
At the Bankruptcy Court's direction, M&M continued to market the
Property past June 18, 2025, and was able to obtain a Letter of
Intent from Granite EP 2 LLC (the "Purchaser") on September 18,
2025, for $6,000,000 in cash. The Debtor continued to seek higher
and better offers but was unable to obtain any offer higher or
otherwise superior to the offer from the Purchaser.
The Debtor intends to seek the approval of the sale to the
Purchaser (the "Sale Transaction") through a separate motion (the
"Sale Motion"). The Debtor believes that a sale of the Property is
necessary to preserve and maximize the value of its estates for the
benefit of creditors. On February 2, 2026, the ad valorem property
taxes for 2025 will become due and payable and interest on the
claims will start accruing interest under applicable law. The
Debtor lacks sufficient funds or Cash flow to continue its
operations, satisfy these property taxes, and adequately market the
property to increase revenue.
The Plan proposes that the Debtor's main asset—the Real Property
located at 590 S Interstate 45, Ennis, Texas 75119, and attendant
Personal Property—be sold to the Purchaser. The Debtor has
conducted a six-month marketing campaign for the Property through
M&M. The result of this campaign is a Cash offer from the Purchaser
in the amount of $6,000,000.00, subject to standard prorations,
that will be reflected in the Purchase Agreement. The Debtor will
seek approval of the Sale according to the Purchase Agreement
through a separate motion under Bankruptcy Code section 363.
The Plan provides that the net proceeds of the Purchase Price for
the Property (the "Sale Proceeds") will be delivered to a Plan
Administrator to be appointed under the Plan and used to fund the
Plan and distributions thereunder. After the payment of Allowed
Administrative Claims, Allowed Priority Tax Claims, and Other
Secured Tax Claims, and setting aside funds for the Plan
Administration Reserve, the Remaining Cash will be held by the Plan
Administrator in an interest-bearing account or otherwise invested
in a commercially reasonable manner pending the resolution of the
Equitable Subordination Litigation.
Upon resolution of the Equitable Subordination Litigation, the Plan
Administrator shall distribute the Remaining Cash according to the
Distribution Waterfall to the Holders of Claims in Class 2 (REH
Secured Claim), Class 3 (Bay Point Secured Claim), Class 4 (General
Unsecured Claims), Class 5 (REH Subordinated Claim), and/or Class 6
(Interests).
The Plan Administrator will effectuate the windup of the Debtor's
business according to the Plan, serve as distribution agent, and
investigate and, if appropriate, pursue the claims and causes of
action of the Debtor that will be retained under the Plan as
"Retained Actions." Any proceeds from the Retained Actions will be
held by the Plan Administrator in the Plan Administration Reserve
until the Plan Administrator determines additional distributions
can be made or final distributions are made under the Plan, at
which time the Plan Administrator will distribute any excess from
the Plan Administration Reserve according to the Distribution
Waterfall.
Class 4 consists of General Unsecured Claims. Promptly after the
determination of the Equitable Subordination Litigation pursuant to
a Final Order, each Holder shall receive payment from Remaining
Cash according to the Distribution Waterfall in an amount not to
exceed the Allowed amount of such General Unsecured Claim. The
allowed unsecured claims total $281,341.32 to $12,384,802.51.
The Debtor shall file with the Bankruptcy Court a separate motion
for the Sale of the Property pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section
363 under the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement free
and clear of any Claims, Liens and Interests other than Assumed
Liabilities as defined in the Purchase Agreement and agreed upon
between the Debtor and the Purchaser.

ENVIRI CORP: Moody's Alters Outlook on 'B1' CFR to Stable
---------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings affirmed the B1 corporate family rating and B1-PD
probability of default rating for Enviri Corporation (Enviri, fka
Harsco Corporation). Concurrently, Moody's downgraded the rating on
the senior secured bank credit facility, consisting of the
company's revolving credit facilities expiring in 2026 and 2029 and
term loan due 2028, to B1 from Ba3. Additionally, Moody's affirmed
the B3 rating on the company's senior unsecured notes. Moody's also
changed the outlook to stable from negative. The SGL-3 speculative
grade liquidity rating remains unchanged.
The rating action follows the company's announcement of the sale of
its Clean Earth (CE) business for a total cash consideration of
$3.04 billion. Enviri plans to use $1.5 billion to $1.7 billion of
the proceeds to repay debt (roughly $1.35 billion), support the
execution of its rail segment's engineered-to-order (ETO) contracts
(up to $200 million) and pay transaction-related costs ($150
million). The capital structure pro forma for the sale of the CE
business is expected to comprise a re-sized term loan of
approximately $375 million and a $150 million revolving credit
facility to be undrawn at transaction close. The transaction is
expected to close by mid-2026.
The rating affirmation and outlook change to stable reflects
Enviri's significantly lower financial leverage following the CE
divestiture. Moody's estimates debt-to-EBITDA (including Moody's
standard adjustments) to fall below 3.5x at year-end 2025 pro forma
for the transaction, from over 6x as of September 30, 2025. The
rating action also considers the cyclicality and ongoing end market
pressures facing the company's remaining business segments, Harsco
Environmental (HE) and Harsco Rail (Rail), which will weigh on
Enviri's margins. Moody's expects the company to maintain adequate
liquidity.
The downgrade of the senior secured bank credit facility rating to
B1 reflects the preponderance of this class of debt in the capital
structure pro forma for the transaction.
RATINGS RATIONALE
The B1 CFR reflects Enviri's sizeable services under contract at
Harsco Environmental (HE) that provide revenue visibility,
underpinned by longstanding customer relationships. The HE business
is well positioned with high barriers to entry and diversification
by region, end market and customer. Demand for HE's services is
driven in part by the need for customers to comply with
environmental regulations for waste. However, the operating
landscape for HE's environmental services is fragmented and
competitive. HE also has cyclical exposure with sales correlated to
steel production volumes and is sensitive to prolonged slowdowns in
steel mill production or excess production capacity. Steel
production remains subdued in most regions globally, amid weak
economic growth, cheaper alternatives from Asia and shifting trade
policies. This is tempered by higher volumes in fast-growing areas
such as India and the Middle East.
The rating also reflects Rail's global presence and sizeable
installed base that provides good longer term prospects for higher
margin aftermarket demand. However, the company's rail business is
cyclical and facing weaker demand fundamentals as customer spending
remains cautious with ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty. Weaker
operating results at Rail have contributed largely to Enviri's high
leverage and sustained negative free cash flow. Rail continues to
face cash flow pressures and the risk of losses on its large
European ETO rail contracts into 2026, though efforts to reduce the
risk by amending the agreements and continued progress toward
completing the contracts will reduce the company's cash
consumption.
While the CE sale leaves a business with lower margin and cash flow
generation, Moody's expects credit metrics to improve over the next
12-18 months, including adjusted EBITDA margin approaching 12%
through 2026. This will be supported by HE's new contracts wins to
replace site closures and exits, higher pricing, and efficiency
actions at existing sites helping to offset cost inflation
pressures. As well, positive trends in US steel production as
tariffs to protect US producers take effect and an improvement in
European steel markets over the next year will also support
improving results. Moody's also expects the company to benefit from
a focus on operational execution and cost measures at Rail, along
with a gradual recovery in demand. Lower cash flow generation of
the post-CE sale operations will be tempered by significantly
reduced interest costs with less pro forma debt.
Enviri's adequate liquidity, as reflected by the SGL-3 speculative
grade liquidity rating, is based on Moody's expectations of a
healthy cash balance and near-full availability under a $150
million revolving credit facility. Moody's expects free cash flow
to be negative through 2026 but the cash burn will likely lessen as
the company works to complete its large ETO contracts as well as
smaller ETOs over the next 12-18 months. Earnings growth, reduced
interest expense and some rail milestone payments will also help
improve free cash flow. There are no material debt maturities until
the senior unsecured notes in 2027. Moody's expects the company to
maintain adequate headroom under its financial covenants following
an amendment to its credit agreement in November 2025.
FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS
Ratings could be upgraded with good operational execution,
demonstrated by consistent top line growth and meaningfully
stronger margins. Quantitatively, Moody's would expect to see
adjusted debt-to-EBITDA sustained below 3.5x, adjusted EBIT to
interest expense above 2x and EBIT margin improving and sustained
above 6.5% for a ratings upgrade. The maintenance of good
liquidity, including consistent positive free cash flow along with
ample revolver availability and covenant headroom, would also be
required for an upgrade.
The ratings could be downgraded if debt-to-EBITDA is sustained
above 4.5x, margins decline due to execution challenges or
weakening business fundamentals, or EBIT to interest is sustained
below 1x. Any deterioration in liquidity, including weaker than
expected free cash flow or declining headroom in complying with
covenants, could also result in a ratings downgrade. A meaningful
increase in expected losses related to continued delays on
delivering under key European rail contracts or the company's
inability to execute on its plan related to these contracts could
also drive a ratings downgrade. Lastly, evidence of a more
aggressive posture on capital allocation, including debt funded
acquisitions or dividends that weaken the metrics could also drive
a ratings downgrade.
The principal methodology used in these ratings was Environmental
Services and Waste Management published in November 2025.
The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.
Enviri Corporation, with headquarters in Philadelphia, PA, is a
global provider of environmental solutions for industrial and
specialty waste streams through Harsco Environmental and Clean
Earth business segments, and innovative equipment and technology
for the rail sector through Harsco Rail. Revenue was approximately
$2.3 billion for the twelve months ended September 30, 2025.

EVERSTREAM SOLUTIONS: Court Confirms Joint Chapter 11 Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Christopher Lopez of the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of Texas confirmed the Third Amended Joint
Chapter 11 Plan of Everstream Solutions LLC and its affiliated
debtors.
The Plan and each of its provisions are confirmed pursuant to
section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code.
Holders of Claims in Class 7 (Intercompany Claims) (only in the
event that Intercompany Claims are not reinstated), Holders of
Claims in Class 8 (Subordinated Claims), and Holders of Claims in
Class 9 (HoldCo Equity Interests) are deemed to reject the plan.
The Plan satisfies the requirements of section 1129(b) of the
Bankruptcy Code and, accordingly, can be confirmed. The Plan does
not discriminate unfairly because holders of Claims and Interests
with similar legal rights will not receive materially different
treatment under the Plan. Additionally, the Plan is fair and
equitable with respect to each Class of Claims and Interests that
has not accepted the Plan because no holders of Claims or Interests
junior to such Classes will receive or retain any property under
the Plan on account of such Claims or Interests.
The Debtors, the Released Parties, and the Exculpated Parties have
acted in good faith in all aspects with respect to the Plan,
including within the meaning of section 1125(e) of the Bankruptcy
Code. The Debtors have proposed the Plan (and all documents
necessary to effectuate the Plan) in good faith and not by any
means forbidden by law. The Debtors' good faith is evident from the
facts and record of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Disclosure Statement,
the record of the Confirmation Hearing, and other proceedings held
by this Court in the Chapter 11 Cases. The Plan (including all
documents necessary to effectuate the Plan) was negotiated at arm's
length among the Debtors, the Prepetition Lenders, the DIP Lenders,
and the Creditors' Committee, other parties in interest, and each
of their respective advisors.
According to the Troubled Company Reporter on Sept. 19, 2025, the
Debtors filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Texas a Disclosure Statement for Joint Chapter 11 Plan
dated September 10, 2025.
Debtor Midwest Fiber Holdings LP ("HoldCo") is the ultimate Debtor
parent of 13 direct and indirect subsidiaries that, collectively
with Everstream Solutions LLC, are Debtors in the Chapter 11
Cases.
Everstream was founded in 2014 as a for-profit subsidiary of
OneCommunity, a Cleveland-based nonprofit organization, to provide
fiber, data, and network services to businesses across northeast
Ohio. Since its founding, the Company has expanded through a
combination of organic growth and strategic acquisitions.
Everstream classifies its suite of services into three broad
categories: (i) connectivity services, (ii) communications
solutions, and (iii) network security.
On July 22, 2025, the Debtors held a live auction (the "Auction")
that included multiple rounds of competitive bidding among the
Qualified Bidders and resulted in the designation of Bluebird's
final bid, which provided for an aggregate cash purchase price of
$384.6 million (subject to certain purchase price adjustments) plus
certain assumed liabilities, as the Successful Bid. The Debtors
also selected Metro Comm's final bid, which provided for an
aggregate cash purchase price of $366 million (subject to certain
purchase price adjustments) plus certain assumed liabilities,
including the liabilities associated with the Pennsylvania
Business, as the Back-Up Bid (as defined in the Bidding Procedures
Order).
The Successful Bid and Back-Up Bid were the culmination of the
extensive eight-month WholeCo Prepetition Sale Process, the 50-day
Postpetition Sale Process, and a competitive Auction. Each bid also
marked a significant improvement from the Stalking Horse Bid to the
benefit of the Debtors' estates, creditors, and all parties in
interest.
On August 1, 2025, upon a hearing held to approve the WholeCo Sale
Transaction, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving (i)
that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 31, 2025,
memorializing the WholeCo Sale Transaction (the "Bluebird APA")
with Bluebird as the Successful Bidder and (ii) the designation of
Metro Comm as the Back-Up Bidder and its bid as the Back-Up Bid
pursuant to the terms of that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the
"Metro Comm APA," and, as applicable between the Metro Comm APA and
the Bluebird APA, in each case, together with the exhibits thereto,
as may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to
time in accordance with the terms thereof, the "WholeCo APA").
The Plan contemplates the distribution of proceeds from the WholeCo
Sale Transaction with the Successful Bidder and a wind down of the
Debtors' remaining assets. To implement the provisions of the Plan,
the Plan contemplates the appointment of a plan administrator (the
"Plan Administrator") to facilitate the wind down of the Debtors'
remaining assets after the Effective Date (the "Wind Down").
The Plan further provides that, on the Effective Date, an Entity or
Entities that, in the discretion of Debtors with the consent of the
Requisite Prepetition Lenders, may be established or otherwise
designated for the benefit of holders of Claims against the Debtors
(the "Wind Down Co") in connection with the distribution of cash on
hand, proceeds from the WholeCo Sale Transaction, and any other
assets of the Debtors. Wind Down Co will be funded with Cash equal
to the aggregate amount of projected disbursements (plus any
additional amounts recovered or realized by Wind Down Co in
accordance with the Wind Down) (the "Wind Down Fund"), which shall
be used in accordance with a budget (the "Wind Down Budget") to be
agreed upon between the Debtors and Prepetition Lenders holding, in
the aggregate, at least 75% of each of the outstanding DIP Loans,
OpCo Loans, and HoldCo Loans (the "Requisite Prepetition
Lenders").
Plan Distributions to holders of Claims entitled to a recovery
under the Plan will be funded by Cash on hand, the Sale Proceeds,
Cash proceeds from the sale or liquidation of any of the Debtors'
assets that are not Transferred Assets, and, with respect to
distributions on account of Allowed HoldCo Lender Secured Claims,
any Cash in the Credit Card Program Bank Account.
Plan Distributions will be made in accordance with the following
distribution priority (in each case, until paid in full in Cash)
(the "Waterfall Recovery Priority"): (i) first, on account of
Allowed Administrative Expense Claims, Allowed DIP Claims, Allowed
Priority Tax Claims, and Allowed Other Priority Claims (if any);
(ii) second, on account of Allowed Other Secured Claims (if any);
and (iii) third, on account of Allowed OpCo Lender Secured Claims.
As further set forth in the Plan, following completion of the Wind
Down, the Plan Administrator will distribute to the OpCo Lenders
the amount (if any) remaining in the Wind Down Fund after the Plan
Administrator completes all of its duties under the Plan before the
dissolution of Wind Down Co.
As of the Petition Date, the Debtors estimate that there is
approximately $37.5 million on account of Claims against the
Debtors that are neither secured by collateral nor entitled to
priority under the Bankruptcy Code or any order of the Court.
Class 4 consists of OpCo General Unsecured Claims. All OpCo General
Unsecured Claims shall be cancelled, released, and extinguished as
of the Effective Date, and will be of no further force or effect,
and holders of Allowed OpCo General Unsecured Claims shall not
receive any distribution on account of such Allowed OpCo General
Unsecured Claims. This Class will receive a distribution of 0% of
their allowed claims. This Class is impaired.
Class 6 consists of HoldCo General Unsecured Claims. All HoldCo
General Unsecured Claims shall be cancelled, released, and
extinguished as of the Effective Date, and will be of no further
force or effect, and holders of Allowed HoldCo General Unsecured
Claims shall not receive any distribution on account of such
Allowed HoldCo General Unsecured Claims. This Class will receive a
distribution of 0% of their allowed claims. This Class is
impaired.

GENERATIONS ON 1ST: Claims to be Paid from Future Rental, Financing
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Generations on 1st, LLC, filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the District of North Dakota a Disclosure Statement for Fist
Amended Plan of Reorganization dated November 25, 2025.
Formed on March 4, 2020, Generations was created for purposes of
constructing and operating a residential apartment building at 26
1st Avenue in Watertown, South Dakota (the "Real Estate").
A number of factors went into initial development of the Real
Estate, including an assessment of the housing demand in Watertown,
the availability of tax increment financing ("TIF") from the local
government, and the promised provision of both construction and
completion funding from Red River State Bank ("RRSB"). The Debtor
commenced operations with detailed projections, and seized upon the
industry experience of Mr. Craig. Yet Generations' development
thereafter proceeded in a hardly typical manner.
Myriad disputes presently exist between RRSB and the Debtor
concerning what did— and did not—happen along the way. Where
appropriate, this Disclosure Statement addresses the Debtor's
position as to those disputes, which are most pertinently being
advanced through the pending case of Generations on 1st, et al. v.
Red River State Bank, Case No. 25-07009 (Bankr. D.N.D. 2025) (the
"Adversary Proceeding"). Specifically, Generations petitioned for
chapter 11 protection on January 6, 2025.
The core of Generations claims against RRSB is a contention that
the bank is the recipient of a fraudulent conveyance, in the form
of a forbearance agreement containing both a broad release and an
increase in applicable interest rates. Generations also contends
that RRSB lacked the authority and resources to honor lending
commitments, leading to the bank acting in an irrational manner at
odds with prevailing industry norms and, ultimately, causing the
institution to service the loans, and declare defaults, in a
predatorily aggressive and bad faith manner.
Critically, the Plan is not dependent upon success in the Adversary
Proceeding. Rather, in an effort to ensure Generations may emerge
from chapter 11 before the litigation reaches a conclusion (a
process that may take some measure of time), the Plan proposes to
pay RRSB's claim based on an estimated sum (which is not
significantly lower than that asserted by RRSB), with payments to
be reamortized once the Adversary Proceeding concludes and a
precise sum may be calculated.
The Debtor fervently asserts the Plan is feasible even if the
Adversary Proceeding is not ultimately successful, with Plan
payments being pegged to future rental streams and takeout
financing. Success in the Adversary Proceeding will make Plan
obligations easier (and, in the biased view of the Debtor, advance
the interests of justice); success in the Adversary Proceeding,
however, is not a condition precedent to the making of payments to
creditors under the Plan.
Class 5 consists of General Unsecured Trade Creditors. Class 5
consists of the Claims of CP Business Management, White Glove
Cleaning, HME, and Cannon Electric LLC. Each of these Claims are
derivative of obligations attendant to the care and maintenance of
the Real Estate, whether directly (as with White Glove Cleaning and
Cannon Electric LLC) or derivatively (as with CP Business
Management and HME, both of which assert themselves to have fronted
monies for the payment of ordinary trade creditors during their
respective times operating the Real Estate prepetition). This Class
will be paid, pari passu, with Class 4, Class 6 and Class 7, over a
period of five years from the Plan Payment Commencement Date. Class
5 is an impaired class.
Class 6 consists of the Unsecured Claim of Red River State Bank.
Class 6 consists of the Claim of Red River State Bank that is both
an allowed Claim and an unsecured Claim. This claim is in the
amount of $2,678,457.38, subject to setoff. This claim is also
likely to be reduced based on the allocation of various notes on
which Mulinda Craig is personally obligated, secured by the Real
Estate, and upon which a separate debtor in bankruptcy Parkside
Place LLC, is also bound.
These obligations will be paid by the Debtor and Parkside in such a
manner as to ensure they are paid in full, without any "double"
payment thereupon being made. This Class will be paid, pari passu,
with Class 4, Class 5 and Class 7, over a period of five years from
the Plan Payment Commencement Date, in a sum adjusted to ensure the
full retirement of Ms. Craig's notes between this Plan and that of
Parkside. Class 6 is an impaired class.
Class 7 consists of the unsecured Claim of Blacktail Investments,
LLC, being monies loaned directly to Generations for the sole and
express purpose of retaining bankruptcy counsel. Insofar as this
Claim is not comparable to that of a trade creditor, nor comparable
to that of a construction lender with a putative deficiency, this
Claim is separately classified. This Class will be paid, pari
passu, with Class 4, Class 5 and Class 6, over a period of five
years from Plan Payment Commencement Date. Class 7 is an impaired
class.
Class 8 consists of the Debtor's equity interest. The Debtor's
equity interest shall remain unchanged insofar as this Plan
proposes to pay all Claim Holders in full. Class 8 is an unimpaired
class.
The payments, distributions and other treatment afforded to holders
of allowed claims and interests under the Plan shall be in full and
complete satisfaction, discharge and release of such allowed claims
or interests against the Debtor.

2025 is available at https://urlcurt.com/u?l=kJvaq1 from

HEART 2 HEART: Plan Exclusivity Period Extended to January 26, 2026
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Judge David L. Bissett of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of West Virginia extended Heart 2 Heart
Volunteers, Inc. d/b/a Serenity Hills Life Center's exclusive
periods to file a plan of reorganization and obtain acceptance
thereof to January 26, 2026 and March 27, 2026, respectively.
As shared by Troubled Company Reporter, the Debtor was temporarily
shut down pre-petition by the West Virginia Department of Health
and Human Resources and/or the West Virginia Office of Health
Facility and Licensure Certification but subsequently reopened
after a successful administrative hearing where the closure was
determined to be unsupported.
The Debtor explains that its primary focus at this juncture is
approval of licensing from the Joint Commission. This approval is
necessary for the Debtor to continue operations and highlights the
Debtor's high standards of healthcare quality and patient safety.
Such accreditation is a necessary tool in growing Debtor's
business.
The Debtor serves, and will continue to serve, a vulnerable and
at-risk population, providing an important service to the citizens
of West Virginia. It is imperative that the Debtor be afforded the
opportunity to maximize the chapter 11 process, to continue its
service of this population.
The Debtor claims that no creditor has contacted the company to
allege any failure to pay bills as timely due. In connection with
its present ability to pay bills as due, the Debtor has a viable
path toward reorganization.
Finally, not only is the Debtor seeking this extension request in
good faith, and not to place any pressure on creditors, the
Debtor's creditors will not be prejudiced by the requested
extension; on the contrary, the Debtor's creditors will be best
served with an extension of the Exclusivity Periods, as it will
help ensure the plan proposed by the Debtor is a realistic Chapter
11 Plan of Reorganization that is capable of being substantially
consummated.

HILL INC: Files Assignment in Bankruptcy Under Canada's BIA
-----------------------------------------------------------
Hill Incorporated, formerly Hill Street Beverage Company Inc.,
announced on November 21, 2025, that it has made an assignment in
bankruptcy pursuant to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada).
Due to dramatic price compression, difficulty in collections of
accounts receivable, and other significant challenges in the
cannabis industry affecting the Company's DehydraTECH licensing
business, along with the significant cash outlays and costs
required in the Company's alcohol-free wine business, the Company
is unable to address its obligations as they become due. After
careful consideration of the Company's financial position and
strategic alternatives, the board of directors concluded that it
had no viable option but to make an assignment in bankruptcy under
the BIA.
Albert Gelman Inc. has been appointed as the trustee in the
Bankruptcy Proceeding by the Official Receiver, subject to
affirmation of the Company's creditors at the first meeting of
creditors. Further information may be obtained from the Trustee at

INTEGRATED ENDOSCOPY: Seeks to Extend Exclusivity to March 31, 2026
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Integrated Endoscopy, Inc. asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Central District of California to extend its exclusivity periods to
file a plan of reorganization March 31, 2026.
The Debtor explains that factors demonstrate that "cause" for an
extension of the exclusivity period exists.
* Factor 1: The size and complexity of the case. The Debtor's
bankruptcy case presents complex issues of corporate law that must
be considered when resolving the TCY Claim as well as claims of the
Debtor's former officers and/or employees, including Brad Sharp and
Andrew Sharp. RCT has not filed a proof of claim. The Bar Date has
not passed, which is set for February 1, 2026. Therefore, the
Debtor will not know the full extent of its liability, whether or
not unliquidated and/or contingent, until after at least February
1, 2026.
* Factor 2: The necessity of sufficient time to permit the
debtor to negotiate a plan of reorganization and prepare adequate
information. The Debtor's largest creditor is the RCT. RCT has not
filed a proof of claim. Moreover, the Debtor is still investigating
the RCT Claim and actions of RCT, which may lead to claims the
Debtor may have against RCT and/or Brad Sharp.
* Factor 3: The existence of good faith progress toward
reorganization. Regarding the third factor, the Debtor is making
good faith progress toward reorganization. The Debtor is working
hard to increase its profitability while resolving the claims
against it so that it can propose a plan of reorganization and
emerge from the Chapter 11 case. Thus, this factor also shows cause
exists for an extension to the exclusivity period.
* Factor 4: The fact that the debtor is paying its bills as
they become due. The fourth factor also shows cause exists because
the Debtor is paying its bills as they become due.
* Factor 5: Whether the debtor has demonstrated reasonable
prospects for filing a viable plan. Regarding the fifth factor, the
Debtor is a start-up company that seeks to continue its operations,
preserve the jobs of its employees, and generate revenue for the
benefit of all creditors based on its products that just recently
obtained FDA approval.

INTEGRITY CELEBRATIONS: Amends Citizens Bank Secured Claim
----------------------------------------------------------
Integrity Celebrations LLC, submitted a First Amended Disclosure
Statement describing First Amended Plan dated November 25, 2025.
This case was primarily filed to restructure the Debtor's
construction loan with Citizens Bank. The Plan seeks to impose
commercially reasonable repayment terms on the claim of Citizens
Bank.
Class 1 consists of Citizens Bank Claim. Citizens Secured Claim is
Allowed, is fully secured, and Citizens is entitled to its accrued
and accruing interest, costs, and reasonable attorney fees after
the Petition Date and to the Effective Date both under the terms of
the Citizens Loan Documents and applicable law. Citizens may file a
supplemental Claim to account for such interest, costs, and fees,
for that period, and giving credit for adequate protection payments
received.
The Debtor asserts that Citizens has the benefit of a substantial
equity cushion in its collateral. In connection with its pre
bankruptcy attempts to refinance, the Debtor was advised that the
Debtor's Property was appraised for $1,880,000. Based on that
value, and based on the Citizens claim filed in this case
($1,229,345.80), the Citizens claim has a 65% loan-to-value ratio.
As to the balance due as of the Effective Date on Citizens' claim,
commencing on the first day of the month following the Effective
Date, the Debtor will make 35 equal monthly payments of $10,474.83,
based on a 20-year amortization, with per annum interest at a rate
of 8.25%. The Debtor may prepay any portion of Citizens' claim
without penalty. Any unpaid portion of the Citizens' Secured Claim
will be due and paid in full on the first day of the 36th month
following the Effective Date.
Like in the prior iteration of the plan, the Debtor scheduled 7
nonpriority unsecured claims in the total amount of $3,771.94 as
noncontingent, liquidated, and nondisputed. None of the scheduled
creditors filed a proof of claim before the May 7, 2025 bar date.
However, the IRS and the DOR both filed proofs of claim with
nonpriority unsecured components totaling $2,040.00, withdrew or
amended the entirety of their claims to $0.00.
The Debtor will pay the entire Class 3 General Unsecured Claim in
full on or before the first day of the month following the
Effective Date from a personal contribution from the Debtor's sole
manager, Cynthia Schweitzer. Class 3 is unimpaired and the holders
of Class 3 Claims are not entitled to vote to accept or reject the
Plan.
The Debtor will make Plan payments through a combination of:
* monthly rents received from Integrity Funeral Services Inc.
in the amount of $15,250 to fund payments to Class 1. Following the
Effective Date, Celebrations and Funeral will amend their lease to
include a rental amount of $15,250, and may amend their lease from
time to time to include a rental amount sufficient to fund payments
to Class 1;
* lump sum payments from personal contributions from the
Debtor's sole manager, Cynthia Schweitzer, to Class 2 ($10,727.09)
and Class 3 ($3,771.94);
* funds from the security retainer held in trust by the
Debtor's bankruptcy counsel for payment of approved fees of
professionals, including post-petition legal services and expenses.
As of the date of this Disclosure Statement, counsel continues to
hold $155,533.50 in its trust account and estimates its
post-petition legal fees and expenses through the Confirmation Date
will be approximately $35,000.00; and
* if needed, contributions from Cynthia Schweitzer personally
to fund monthly payments to Class 1.
The Bankruptcy Court will consider confirmation of the Plan at a
hearing scheduled for January 13, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., in Courtroom
149 of the United States Courthouse located at 517 East Wisconsin
Avenue, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202.
Any party entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan must return
their ballot on or before January 2, 2026, or it will not be
counted.
Objections to confirmation of the Plan must be filed with the Court
and served upon the Debtor's Counsel, the Office of the United
States Trustee, and all other creditors and/or interested parties
who have filed notices of appearances and requests for special
notice on or before January 2, 2026.

KLIMA CONTROL: Unsecureds Will Get 22.52% of Claims over 60 Months
------------------------------------------------------------------
Klima Control Air Conditioning & Heating LLC and Klima Control Air
Conditioning & Supply, Inc. filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of Florida an Amended Joint Subchapter V
Plan of Reorganization dated November 24, 2025.
The Debtors, Klima Control Air Conditioning & Heating LLC is a
limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of
Florida. Since 2010, the Debtors have operated as a wholesale
distributor of HVAC equipment in South Florida, serving commercial
contractors, residential buyers, and other businesses.
Between 2017 and 2022, the Debtors expanded from one to four
locations, incurring significant costs and operational challenges
that strained finances as revenues declined. Issues with brand
integration, supplier defaults, inventory imbalances, and rising
tariffs worsened the situation. Additionally, the sole member's
serious health issues limited business oversight. These combined
factors made reorganization necessary to restructure debts, reduce
costs, and stabilize operations for long-term viability.
The Debtor anticipates generating approximately $250,000 in
projected disposable income during the Plan term, all of which will
be distributed to Class 4 general unsecured creditors. The Debtor's
leaner operations, reduced overhead, and continued customer
relationships support the Debtor's ability to perform under the
Plan. Based on these updated projections and the Debtor's ongoing
operational stability, the Plan is feasible and not likely to be
followed by liquidation or the need for further reorganization.
Creditors have filed claims in the Debtors' cases totaling
$4,060,974.37. After reclassifying certain claims to executory
contracts, the Debtors estimate that the total amount of allowed
general unsecured claims is $1,110,005.47. Ford Motor Credit
Corporation may amend its rejected lease claim to assert a
deficiency; none has been filed to date. By this Plan, the Debtors
will be restructuring these obligations such that the Debtors can
remain viable as a going concern.
Class 4 consists of General Unsecured Claims. Allowed unsecured
claims will receive pro rata distributions from projected
disposable income over the Plan's commitment period. Estimated
recovery is approximately 22.52%. The allowed unsecured claims
total $1,110,005.47. This Class is impaired.
Class 5 consists of all allowed equity interests in the Debtors,
which includes interest in any share of stock or membership
interest(s), common stock or other instruments evidencing an
ownership interest in the Debtors. All Equity Security Holders of
the Debtors will retain their interest(s) in the Debtors as such
interest(s) existed prior to the Petition Date, with Enrique
Pototsky retaining a 100% membership interest in Klima LLC.
The Plan spans five years, during which the Debtors will commit all
projected disposable income to unsecured creditors. Secured claims
will be paid in full. Unsecured creditors are projected to receive
approximately $250,000in quarterly distributions over a 60-month
period.

----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Jennie D. Latta of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Western District of Tennessee granted the motion filed by C. Jerome
Teel, Jr., KPower Global Logistics LLC's Chapter 11 Trustee, for
additional time within which to assume or reject unexpired leases
of non-residential real property in the bankruptcy case. The
Trustee's period of time within which to assume or reject the
leases is extended for 90 days from and after December 4, 2025, or
March 4, 2026.
There are a number of unexpired leases of non-residential real
property that have not expired, but that have not yet been assumed
or rejected.
The Trustee had only been appointed and in place for barely one
week's time at the time of the filing of the motion. He has not had
the opportunity to get fully informed as to the feasibility of
assumption or to make an informed business judgment with respect to
the assumption or rejection of the Leases. The Trustee has until
210 days after the filing of the petition, which is December 4,
2025, within which to assume or reject the leases, so the motion
was filed well before that period expires.
The Trustee submits that he needs additional time within which to
make an informed business judgment decision with respect to the
assumption or rejection of the leases. While the Debtor's period of
exclusivity has now expired, the Trustee has not made the decision
as to whether or not he will file and prosecute a disclosure
statement and plan of reorganization. Any plan will, necessarily,
include assumption/rejection of the leases as a part of any
reorganization.

LENASI INC: Unsecureds Will Get 11% of Claims over 60 Months
------------------------------------------------------------
Lenasi, Inc., submitted an Amended Subchapter V Plan dated November
24, 2025.
Lenasi is the party proposing this Plan, which is a reorganizing
plan that proposes to make distributions as set forth herein over a
five-year year period of time.
The Debtor will fund the plan via its business income as set forth
in the projections. To fund the Plan debtor needs to maintain its
operations to continue generating income.
Class 4 consists of all unsecured claims where the amount owed to
the claimants is not in dispute. This class of claims will be with
60 monthly payments of $1,100.00 per month. This will result in the
total recovery for this class of $66,000.00, or at least estimated
11% of the total amount owed.
Payments will begin on the first of the month following the
Effective Date of the Plan and continue for 59 months thereafter.
The allowed unsecured claims total $764,500.98. Class 4 is
impaired.
John Harutuniani shall retain his 100% ownership interest in
Lenasi, Inc.
The Debtor will fund the plan via business income as set forth in
the projections attached hereto as Exhibit 2 to fund the Plan. At
the time of confirmation of this Plan Debtor estimates that it will
have about $75,250.00 in its Debtor in possession accounts, which
will be used to make the administrative claim payments.
Additionally, while Debtor expects small surplus each month from
its operation, that surplus will be used as a security for any
unexpected expense or liability to be paid during the term of the
plan, and will be maintained as a financial cushion.

-----------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida
entered an interim order authorizing Limitless ABA, LLC to use cash
collateral.
The court authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral solely to

LINQTO TEXAS: Unsecureds to Get Share of Wind-Down Trust Proceeds
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Linqto Texas, LLC, and its affiliates filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas a Disclosure
Statement for the Joint Chapter 11 Plan dated November 25, 2025.
Founded in 2010 by Bill Sarris as a technology and software
development company providing services to financial technology
firms, Linqto, Inc. evolved into a financial technology platform
that was intended to enable investors to indirectly invest in
private-market startups and pre-IPO companies.
From February 2020 through March 14, 2025, Linqto, Inc. operated an
online platform that purported to allow customers to indirectly
invest in private companies, with a focus on the technology sector.
More specifically, Debtor Liquidshares would purchase and hold
Liquidshares Portfolio Companies. With respect to a limited number
of transactions at the start of the platform's operation, Linqto,
Inc. would loan money to Liquidsharesto fund its purchase of
Platform Securities. Following the acquisition of Platform
Securities, the Platform Securities were held in Liquidshares'
inventory.
After arms'-length negotiations, the Debtors, the Committee, and
the Deaton Parties (collectively, the "Settlement Parties") reached
a compromise regarding funding the administration of the Chapter 11
Cases and the treatment of the claims or interests of Customers
(the "Settlement"). The Settlement resolved objections to the DIP
Financing Motion and the Ripple Motion and set forth terms for the
treatment of the claims or interests of Customers pursuant to a
plan of reorganization, subject to Sections 1125, 1126, and 1129 of
the Bankruptcy Code.
Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement, the Debtors are authorized
to finance the administration of the Chapter 11 Cases through use
of (i) the proceeds of Reserved Securities, (ii) the Platform
Securities Proceeds (including the Ripple Tender Proceeds), and
(iii) DIP financing in an aggregate amount of up to $25,000,000, in
accordance with the Approved Budget. In exchange, the Debtors
agreed to the treatment of Customer claims or interests under a
plan of reorganization to be proposed, the principal terms of which
are set forth in the "Customer Securities Treatment Term Sheet" (as
defined in the Settlement Motion).
The Debtors, with the support of the Committee, propose the Plan to
maximize value for all stakeholders. The Plan provides for the
creation of three vehicles: a Wind-Down Trust, a Liquidating Trust,
and a Closed-End Fund. Customers may elect to have their Customer
Interests contributed to the Liquidating Trust, the Closed-End
Fund, or a combination of the two, subject to the terms and
limitations in the Plan. Each vehicle has a distinct purpose:
* The Wind-Down Trust will be responsible for monetizing
certain assets including the Reserved Securities and the Retained
Causes of Action. It will also be responsible for the
reconciliation of Claims against the Estates, and the
administrative tasks associated with the winding up of the Debtors,
subject to the terms of the Plan. Except for Customer Claims, which
get the treatment described in 2 and 3, the Wind-Down Trust is the
vehicle through which all Claims will recover through the Plan.
* The formation of the Liquidating Trust will allow Customers,
other than those who indirectly hold any Designated Platform
Securities, to contribute their Customer Interest to the
Liquidating Trust in exchange for Liquidating Trust Interests that
represent the Customers' economic interest in a Liquidshares
Portfolio Company. The Liquidating Trust will terminate upon the
earlier of (i) five years from the Effective Date (subject to
periodic extensions as may be approved by the Bankruptcy Court) and
(ii) the occurrence of certain events as set forth in the
Liquidating Trust Agreement. The Liquidating Trust is designed to
allow most Customers to keep their envisioned investment as close
to their original intent as possible.
* The formation of the Closed-End Fund will allow Customers,
including those who indirectly hold any Designated Platform
Securities, to contribute their Customer Interest to the Closed-End
Fund in exchange for publicly traded shares. The Closed-End Fund
will not have a termination date. The Closed-End Fund will allow
Customers to obtain intraday liquidity and to hold their investment
long-term. All contributed Customer Interests will be pooled in the
Closed-End Fund, and Electing Customers will receive shares of the
Closed-End Fund equal to the value of such Electing Customers'
contribution.
Class 7 consists of Other General Unsecured Claims. Each Holder of
an Allowed Other General Unsecured Claim shall receive a beneficial
interest in the Wind-Down Trust. Such interest shall entitle each
Holder of an Allowed Other General Unsecured Claim to its share of
the proceeds from the WindDown Trust Assets pursuant to the
WindDown Trust Waterfall. As of the Effective Date, the Debtors'
liability for all Other General Unsecured Claims shall be (i)
assumed by the WindDown Trust without further act, deed, or Court
order and (ii) administered and paid from the Wind-Down Trust as
set forth in the Wind-Down Trust Agreement.
The Debtors shall fund or make distributions under the Plan, as
applicable, with: (i) the Closed-End Fund Assets, (ii) the
Liquidating Trust Assets, and the (iii) Wind-Down Trust Assets.
The Liquidating Trust shall be formed on the Effective Date to
effect the liquidation of Liquidshares and applicable Liquidating
Trust Assets, (other than the Closed-End Fund Assets), including
without limitation, the Platform Securities attributable to the
Liquidating Trust Beneficiaries as well as any and all transactions
incidental thereto, in accordance with the Plan, the Confirmation
Order, and the Liquidating Trust Agreement. The corpus of the
Liquidating Trust will consist of the Liquidating Trust Assets.
Solely for the purpose of raising sufficient proceeds to administer
the operations of the Liquidating Trust, pursuant to the terms of
the Liquidating Trust Agreement, (i) the Liquidating Trust may
establish a formal relationship for Liquidshares and/or the
Liquidating Trust with or more Secondaries Platforms that can
permit Liquidshares to sell Funding Securities for the benefit of
the Liquidating Trustee and/or (ii) sell a pro rata slice of
Platform Securities to the Closed-End Fund in exchange for Closed
End Fund Shares.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Mauser Packaging Solutions Holding Company announced on Nov. 21,
2025, the results as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November
21, 2025, of its offers to exchange:
(i) any and all $2,695.8 million of its outstanding principal
amount of 7.875% Senior First Lien Notes due 2027 for newly issued
7.875% Senior First Lien Notes due 2030 and
(ii) any and all $1,343.5 million of its outstanding principal
amount of 9.25% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2027 for newly
issued 9.25% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2030, each upon
the terms and conditions set forth in the Confidential Offering
Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement dated November 7,
2025.
As of the Early Tender Time, a total of $2,636,050,000 principal
amount of Old First Lien Notes and $1,298,646,000 principal amount
of Old Second Lien Notes had been tendered in the Exchange Offers,
representing approximately 97.78% of the outstanding Old First Lien
Notes and 96.66% of the outstanding Old Second Lien Notes.
Accordingly, Mauser has received consents sufficient to approve the
proposed amendments to the indenture governing the Old First Lien
Notes and the indenture governing the Old Second Lien Notes.
Mauser and the trustee and collateral agent for the Old Notes will
enter into supplemental indentures relating to the Old Notes
containing such Proposed Amendments, and the Proposed Amendments
will become operative concurrent with the settlement of Old Notes
accepted for tender as of the Early Tender Time.
The Exchange Offers are conditioned upon, among other things, the
valid tender by eligible holders representing at least 80% of the
aggregate principal amount of the applicable Old Notes outstanding.
The Minimum Tender Condition for each series of Old Notes has been
met as of the Early Tender Time and initial settlement of the
Exchange Offers is currently expected to take place on November 26,
2025.
Mauser is also amending the Exchange Offers by offering the "Early
Tender Premium" of $50 in principal amount of applicable New Notes
in respect of all applicable Old Notes that are validly tendered by
5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 9, 2025, and that are
accepted for exchange, regardless of whether such Old Notes were
tendered before or after the Early Tender Time.
Accordingly, eligible holders who tender their Old Notes after the
Early Tender Time but before the Expiration Time will be eligible
to receive the applicable Total Consideration, which is $1,000
principal amount of applicable New Notes per $1,000 principal
amount of applicable Old Notes.
The Expiration Time of the Exchange Offers continues to be 5:00
p.m., New York City time, on December 9, 2025, unless extended. The
withdrawal deadline has passed, and holders no longer have the
right to withdraw any Old Notes previously tendered and will not
have the right to withdraw any Old Notes tendered through the
Expiration Time.
The final settlement date for the Exchange Offers will occur
promptly after the Expiration Time, and is currently expected to be
December 11, 2025. Other than the extension of the Early Tender
Premium, all other terms of the Exchange Offers remain unchanged.
In connection with the Exchange Offers, Mauser expects to enter
into an amendment to the credit agreement governing its existing
term loan facility to refinance the existing term loan facility
with a new $1,000.0 million term loan facility maturing April 15,
2030 and to extend the maturity date of the cash flow revolver
facility thereunder to January 14, 2030.
Additionally, in connection with the Exchange Offers, Mauser
expects to enter into an amendment to, among other things, extend
the maturity date of Mauser's asset-based revolving facility to
January 14, 2030. The New Term Loan Facility, as amended by the
Cash Flow Agreement Amendment, will equally and ratably share in
the collateral with Mauser's current first lien debt.

MCMILLAN LOGGING: Unsecured Creditors to Split $90K in Plan
-----------------------------------------------------------
McMillan Logging, Inc., filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Northern District of Florida a Plan of Reorganization dated
November 24, 2025.
The Debtor operates a logging business in Liberty County, Florida,
and has since 2007. The Debtor had a highly profitable enterprise
until catastrophic hurricanes and the closing of multiple paper
mills in the North Florida area caused a significant downturn in
revenue.
The Debtor filed this case to restructure its debts and reach an
agreement with John Deere to be able to retain its equipment.
While the Debtor has experienced financial issues as indicated, the
Debtor strongly believes there is a path to a successful
reorganization in this case. Since the filing of this case, the
Debtor has reached an agreement with John Deere. The Plan will be
funded by the Debtor's ongoing business operations.
This Plan provides for the payment of four classes of secured
claims, one class of general unsecured claims, and one class of
equity security holders. This Plan provides for the payment of
administrative and priority claims in full.
Class 5 consists of General Unsecured Claims. General Unsecured
claims (total claim amounts reflected not the total dividend) held
by creditors: John Deere Financial: $526,479.06; Cecil Hinson's
Flint River Timber Co. of GA., Inc.: $0.00; Transit Safety:
$3,779.46; John Paul McCoy: $1,596,993.73; Bank of America:
$57,562.62; Beard Equipment Co.: $23,562.95; Chipola Ford:
$4,066.55; Cintas Corporation: $1,134.35; and PowerPlan:
$40,036.97.
Class 5 Claimants shall receive a total dividend of $90,000.00 paid
pro-rata amongst the creditors in this class. Installment payments
(to be disbursed pro rata) in the amount of $4,500.00 shall
commence on the fifteenth day of the month, on the first month that
begins more than sixty days after the Effective Date and shall
continue every ninety days thereafter for a total of twenty
payments.
Class 6 consists of Equity Security Holder James McMillan. Post
confirmation, the equity security holder will continue to receive
his salary. He will retain his ownership interest.
The Debtor shall fund its Plan from its continued operations.
Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, the Debtor will make the
payments under this Plan, rather than the Subchapter V Trustee.

2025 is available at https://urlcurt.com/u?l=Mdfmm9 from

debt owed to 1–49 creditors.
A meeting of creditors under Section 341(a) to be Held on 1/6/2026

MODIVCARE INC: DOJ, Insurers, Creditors Object Ch. 11 Exit Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
Randi Love of Bloomberg Law reports that ModivCare Inc.'s proposed
Chapter 11 exit plan is facing pushback from multiple sides,
including insurers, the US Trustee's Office, and the unsecured
creditors' committee, all of whom argue the current terms are
inadequate. The objectors say the structure of the plan fails to
provide a reliable path forward for the medical transportation
provider.
The Colorado-based company is seeking to eliminate more than $1
billion in debt through what it calls a distribution framework, but
the creditors' committee says the plan is built on an artificially
low valuation—roughly one-third of what ModivCare was worth just
a year ago. The filing asserts that the company's "overly
pessimistic projections" reflect management messaging rather than
its actual performance, the report states.
About Modivcare Inc.
ModivCare Inc. is a technology-enabled healthcare services company
that provides a suite of integrated supportive care solutions for
public and private payors and their members.
The Debtor sought protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Case No. 25-90309) on August 20,

MONTAUK METALS: Files Corporate Assignment Into Bankruptcy
----------------------------------------------------------
Montauk Metals Inc. filed a corporate assignment into bankruptcy
pursuant to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada). The filing
comes after the Board was unable to reach a settlement with its
creditors.
The Fuller Landau Group Inc. has been appointed as the Licensed
Insolvency Trustee under the bankruptcy proceedings. Montauk's
three directors and officers resigned immediately prior to the
bankruptcy proceedings.
All further matters will be handled by the Trustee. The Trustee
will administer the process of distributing any realizable assets
to proven creditors, which consist of cash balances which are less
than liabilities with no surplus for distribution to shareholders.
The Trustee's contact information and details of the bankruptcy
proceeding can be found at
fullerllp.com/services/corporate-restructuring-and-insolvency/selected-active-engagements/.
Trading in the shares of the Company has been suspended by the TSX
Venture Exchange and cease trade orders have been issued by
Canadian Securities Administrators for failure to file its audited
annual financial statements, management's discussion and analysis,
and related CEO and CFO certifications for the year ended December
31, 2024, by the prescribed deadline of April 30, 2025, as required
under National Instrument 51-102 -- Continuous Disclosure
Obligations. It is not anticipated that the Company will be

About Montauk Metals Inc. (formerly Galway Gold Inc.)
The gold property on which Montauk Metals conducted exploration and
had the rights to was expropriated without compensation by the
government of Colombia. The Company had delineated significant gold
ounces at very high grades (224,900 ounces M&I at 10.5 g/t plus
377,000 ounces Inferred at 10.3 g/t). The Company estimates it
suffered more than USD $16 million in sunk costs and total loss of
the value of the gold property. The Company went to international
court to get restitution; it lost a 2-1 judgement. The Company was
unable to get another mineral property despite numerous bids. The
Board sought the support of its largest creditor to advance a
formal proposal under the BIA, which support was necessary for the
success of such a proposal. However, the Board was unable to secure
support.

NICKLAUS COMPANIES: Jack Nicklaus Opposes Ex-Co.'s Bankruptcy
-------------------------------------------------------------
Dietrich Knauth of Reuters reports that Jack Nicklaus' attorneys
alleged Tuesday that his former business partner is exploiting
bankruptcy to retain control of Nicklaus Companies LLC while
dodging a $50 million defamation judgment. The company filed for
Chapter 11 in Delaware on November 21, 2025 week, shortly after a
Florida jury found it had made false statements about Nicklaus.
Howard Milstein, a long-time investor since 2007, currently
controls the business.
Nicklaus, who left the company in 2017 following a falling out with
Milstein, has been involved in litigation since 2022. At a Delaware
bankruptcy hearing, attorney Eugene Stearns said Nicklaus aims to
reacquire his former business but opposes a proposed $17 million
loan from Milstein-controlled entities. Stearns argued the
additional debt would only reduce the company's attractiveness to
buyers, including Nicklaus himself, according to report.
"No one wants the company to succeed more than Jack Nicklaus,"
Stearns said. Judge Craig Goldblatt approved the initial $10
million of the requested loan, while confirming that Nicklaus can
challenge the legality of Milstein's pre-bankruptcy funding. The
court will rule on final loan approval in January 2026.
In its filing, Nicklaus Companies said it cannot afford to appeal
the $50 million defamation verdict and plans to sell assets
including its golf course design division and golf apparel and
equipment under the Jack Nicklaus and Golden Bear brands. Stearns
further indicated Nicklaus intends to dispute a $462 million
claimed debt owed to Milstein, which could affect who ultimately
has the ability to acquire the business during the bankruptcy
sale.

NIKOLA CORP: Court Won't Change Founder’s Ch. 11 Appeal Issues
----------------------------------------------------------------
Alex Wittenberg of Law360 Bankruptcy Authority reports that a
Delaware bankruptcy judge on Tuesday, November 25, 2025, refused to
limit the scope of Trevor Milton's appeal of the court's order
confirming Nikola Corp.’s Chapter 11 plan. Milton -- the
company's founder, who was pardoned earlier this 2025 by President
Donald Trump on securities fraud charges -- had sought to narrow
the issues under review, but the court said doing so would be
improper at this stage, according to the report.
The judge explained that the appeal must proceed on the full
record, noting that the matters Milton challenged were intertwined
with the broader confirmation ruling. With the request denied,
Milton will have to pursue a comprehensive appeal, and Nikola can
continue advancing post-confirmation steps while monitoring the
challenge, the report states.

PARK HOTELS: Court-Appointed Receiver Completes Sale of Hotels
--------------------------------------------------------------
Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. announced that on November 21, 2025 the
court-appointed receiver completed the sale of the 1,921-room
Hilton San Francisco Union Square and the 1,024-room Parc 55 San
Francisco -- a Hilton Hotel, which secured a $725 million
non-recourse CMBS Loan.
As previously announced, the Hilton San Francisco Hotels were
placed in a court-ordered receivership in October 2023, when the
receiver took full authority and control over the hotels'
operations and Park no longer had any economic interest in the
operations of the hotels.
Thomas J. Baltimore, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer,
stated, "We are extremely pleased that the court-appointed receiver
successfully completed a sale of the Hilton San Francisco Hotels
after a years-long process. While Park no longer has any economic
interest in these assets, with the completion of this sale, Park is
now able to remove the legacy items from our financial statements
that remained following the transfer of these assets into
receivership in 2023. As we look ahead to 2026, Park continues to
remain laser-focused on executing our strategic plan to sell
non-core assets, invest in ROI projects within our core portfolio
and continue to strengthen our balance sheet."
During the receivership, interest, default interest and fees
related to the SF Mortgage Loan were reflected on the Company's
statement of operations, and the SF Mortgage Loan plus accrued
interest and fees (which totaled $874 million as of October 31,
2025) were reflected on the Company's balance sheet. In conjunction
with the sale of the Hilton San Francisco Hotels to (and the
related assumption of the SF Mortgage Loan by) the buyer, the SF
Mortgage Loan and associated accrued interest and fees through and
including the date of the sale, as well as other items on the
Company's consolidated financial statements associated with the
receivership, were derecognized with no effect on the statement of
operations.
About Park Hotels & Resorts

POWIN LLC: Secures Court Confirmation for Ch. 11 Liquidation Plan
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Ben Zigterman of Law360 Bankruptcy Authority reports that a New
Jersey bankruptcy judge on Tuesday, November 25, 2025, confirmed
Powin LLC's Chapter 11 liquidation plan, clearing the way for the
green energy storage manufacturer to wind down its operations. The
ruling came after the court overruled an objection from the U.S.
Trustee's Office, which challenged the plan's opt-out structure for
securing creditor consent to third-party releases, according to the
report.
The judge found the mechanism permissible under the circumstances,
noting that creditors had adequate notice and opportunity to
object. With confirmation granted, Powin can now move forward with
distributing proceeds to stakeholders and completing the final
steps of its court-supervised liquidation, according to report.

storage systems. It specializes in designing and manufacturing

Bankruptcy Judge Michael B. Kaplan handles the cases.

The U.S. Trustee for Regions 3 and 9 appointed an official
committee to represent unsecured creditors in the Chapter 11 cases

PURDUE PHARMA: Court Confirms 18th Amended Chapter 11 Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Sean Lane of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York entered a modified bench ruling
granting confirmation of the Eighteenth Amended Joint Chapter 11
plan of reorganization of Purdue Pharma L.P. and its affiliated
debtor.
The terms of this Plan reflect numerous related settlements that
the Court finds are fair and equitable and in the best interest
these bankruptcy estates.
The Plan satisfies all applicable requirements of the Bankruptcy
Code for confirmation. Of particular importance, the releases in
the Plan for the Sackler Parties who are providing funds to
claimants is consistent with the Supreme Court's 2024 decision in
these cases. That is because the releases are provided only on a
consensual basis, with claimants being given the choice to provide
the releases -- to "opt in" using the terms of the bankruptcy world
-- and, by doing so, to obtain the additional value provided as
part of the Sackler settlement. But no one is required to do so.
Parties are free to preserve their right to sue the Sackler
Parties, with such a right preserved unless the party takes the
affirmative step of opting in to the release.
The Plan is supported by nearly all of the Debtors' creditor
constituencies, including the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors appointed in the Debtors' cases, the negotiating group
for the States Attorney General, the Ad Hoc Committee of
Governmental and Other Contingent Litigation Claimants, the
Multi-State Governmental Entity Group, the Native American Tribes
Group, the Ad Hoc Group of Individual Victims, the Ad Hoc Group of
Hospitals, the ER Physicians, the Third-Party Payor Group, the
Ratepayer Mediation Participants, the NAS Committee, and the Public
School District Claimants. Ninety-nine percent of creditors have
voted to approve the Plan.
All counseled objections to confirmation of the Plan have either
been resolved or withdrawn. Numerous parties have objected to
confirmation of the Plan on a pro se basis, but the Court overrules
these objections and grants confirmation of the Plan.
The Plan incorporates a number of interrelated settlements,
including, but not limited to: (i) the Shareholder Settlement
Agreement; (ii) the Public Entity Settlements; (iii) the Private
Entity Settlements; (iv) the Public Entity Allocation; (v) other
intracreditor allocations; and (vi) certain fee arrangements. The
settlements are a global resolution of claims and controversies
against the Debtors and a comprehensive, consensual resolution of
claims against the Sackler Parties arising out of the Debtors'
production, marketing, and sale of opioid medications. These
value-maximizing settlements are the product of years of diligent
investigations, several rounds of mediation, and hard-fought
negotiations, and will result in up to $7 billion contributed by
the Sackler Parties being provided to public and private creditor
trusts, including approximately $865.8 million for distribution to
qualified personal injury claimants. Only certain aspects of these
many settlements -- for example the Estate Claims Settlement and
the settlement of direct claims held by Personal Injury Claimants
and Third-Party Payors -- are directly implemented by the Plan. As
such, it is only those portions of those settlements -- together
with the additional compromises contained in the Plan (which the
Debtors refer to as the "Plan Settlement") -- for which Debtors
seek approval. However, the remaining components of the Settlements
-- such as the Direct Claims Settlement Agreements -- are
interrelated with the Plan Settlement.
The Court finds that the Debtors have satisfied the provisions of
Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code by a preponderance of the
evidence.
The Plan's classification scheme satisfies Section 1122. Under the
Plan, claims and interests are classified into 21 classes based on,
among other things, their legal rights to the Debtors' property,
their priority, and their relative treatment as agreed to by the
relevant holders of those claims pursuant to the Plan Settlement.
For example, the Plan appropriately classifies certain claims
asserting domestic opioid litigation liability together --
including those filed by States and local government entities in
Class 4 -- because these opioid litigation claims are all unsecured
claims for damages arising out of the Debtors' manufacturing,
marketing, and sale of opioid medications in the United States.
Similarly, claims of adults on account of "alleged opioid-related
personal injury" are classified together, regardless of the alleged
mechanism of injury or nature of damages, because such claims have
the same legal nature and relationship to the property of the
estates. There is also a reasonable basis for the Plan's
classification of similar opioid litigation claims into separate
classes. That classification framework, which arranges opioid
litigation claims into nine classes (Classes 3 through 10(b)),
reflects the results of the first phase of mediation in these cases
and is consistent with a similar classification framework used as
part of the Twelfth Amended Plan. Consistent with the prior plan,
the Plan channels opioid claims to respective Creditor Trusts that
will either fund abatement programs across the United States or
make cash distributions to creditors pursuant to trust distribution
procedures. This approach is consistent with numerous mass tort
and other large-scale Chapter 11 plans involving multi-trust
distribution frameworks.
The Plan satisfies Section 1123(a)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code
because each class of claims or interests under the Plan receives
the same opportunity to recover as every other claim or interest in
such class. For example, Classes 4 through 10(b) consist of
different classes of opioid litigation claims, each of which will
be channeled to separate Creditor Trusts where the claims in each
such class will receive distributions consistent with the
applicable trust distribution procedures.
Sections 10.6(b) and 10.7(b) of the Plan provide for consensual
non-debtor Third-Party Releases by the Releasing Parties of certain
direct and derivative claims and causes of action against the
Released Parties and Shareholder Released.
The Plan Injunction and Channeling Injunction are consistent with
the Bankruptcy Code and the Supreme Court's decision in this case,
and they are approved. As the Plan contains
only consensual non-debtor releases, the Plan Injunction and
Channeling Injunction will not have the effect of releasing any
creditor's claim absent consent.
Purdue Pharma L.P. announced on June 20, 2025, that the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York
approved the Company's disclosure statement for its Chapter 11 Plan
of Reorganization. The disclosure statement provides creditors with
detailed information on the terms of the Plan and will accompany
the ballots that will be sent to the more than 600,000 claimants
eligible to vote.
Purdue's Plan of Reorganization includes these terms:
-- Assuming full creditor participation, the Sacklers will
make settlement payments of approximately $6.5 billion in
installments over the next 15 years, subject to certain reserves.
They will pay $1.5 billion on the day the Plan becomes effective.
-- Purdue will contribute 100% of its assets, with an expected
$900 million in cash available for distribution on the day of
emergence.
-- Notably, the Plan is the only opioid settlement to date
that meaningfully compensates individual victims. Assuming full
participation, individual victims will receive more than $850
million.
-- In addition to this cash value, the Plan creates a new
company with a public minded mission. The new company will provide
millions of doses of lifesaving opioid use disorder treatment and
overdose reversal medicines at no profit.
-- The Sacklers, who exited the Board of Purdue by the end of
2018 and have had no involvement in Purdue since that time, will
have no role whatsoever in the new company.
-- Purdue Pharma L.P. will be liquidated following emergence.
-- The Plan also provides a historic level of transparency. It
creates a document repository that will make available to the
public millions of documents, including privileged documents,
related to Purdue's historical sales and marketing practices.
-- The Plan does not contain third-party releases and fully
complies with the Supreme Court's June 2024 decision in
Harrington.
The disclosure statement approved on June 20th provides the full
details about the material aspects of the plan.

Opioid makers in the U.S. are facing pressure from a crackdown on
the addictive drug in the wake of the opioid crisis and as state
attorneys general file lawsuits against manufacturers. More than
2,000 states, counties, municipalities and Native American
governments have sued Purdue Pharma and other pharmaceutical
companies for their role in the opioid crisis in the U.S., which
has contributed to the more than 700,000 drug overdose deaths in
the U.S. since 1999.
OxyContin, Purdue Pharma's most prominent pain medication, has been
the target of over 2,600 civil actions pending in various state and
federal courts and other fora across the United States and its
territories.
On Sept. 15 and 16, 2019, Purdue Pharma L.P. and 23 affiliated
debtors each filed a voluntary petition for relief under
Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Lead Case
No. 19 23649), after reaching terms of a preliminary agreement for
settling the massive opioid litigation. The Debtors' consolidated
balance sheet as of Aug. 31, 2019, showed $1.972 billion in assets
and $562 million in liabilities. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Robert Drain
oversees the cases.
The Debtors tapped Davis Polk & Wardwell, LLP and Dechert, LLP, as
legal counsels; PJT Partners as investment banker; AlixPartners as
financial advisor; and Grant Thornton, LLP as tax structuring
consultant. Prime Clerk, LLC, is the claims agent.
Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP and Bayard, P.A., represent the
official committee of unsecured creditors appointed in the Debtors'
bankruptcy cases.
David M. Klauder, Esq., is the fee examiner appointed in the
Debtors' cases. The fee examiner is represented by Bielli &
Klauder, LLC.
* * *
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Robert Drain in early September 2021 approved
a plan to turn Purdue into a new company (Knoa Pharma LLC) no
longer owned by members of the Sackler family, with its profits
going to fight the opioid epidemic. The Sackler family agreed to
pay $4.3 billion over nine years to the states and private
plaintiffs and in exchange for a lifetime legal immunity. The deal
resolves some 3,000 lawsuits filed by state and local governments,
Native American tribes, unions, hospitals and others who claimed
the company's marketing of prescription opioids helped spark and
continue an overdose epidemic.
Separate appeals to approval of the Plan have already been filed by
the U.S. Bankruptcy Trustee, California, Connecticut, the District
of Columbia, Maryland, Rhode Island and Washington state, plus some
Canadian local governments and other Canadian entities.
In early March 2022, Purdue Pharma reached a nationwide settlement
over its role in the opioid crisis, with the Sackler family members
boosting their cash contribution to as much as $6 billion. The
settlement was hammered out with attorneys general from the eight
states -- California, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Oregon,
Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington -- and D.C. who had opposed
the previous settlement.
QHSLAB INC: Retires $1.4 Million Convertible Debt for $300,000
--------------------------------------------------------------
QHSLab, Inc. disclosed in a Form 8-K Report filed with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission that on November 18, 2025, the
Company consummated a Note Repurchase Agreement with the holder of
the Company's outstanding convertible promissory notes originally
issued on August 10, 2021 and July 19, 2022.
The Notes, which had been in default and bore interest at a default
rate of 18 percent per annum, had an aggregate outstanding balance
consisting of principal and accrued interest in excess of $1.4
million as of the date of redemption.
Under the terms of the Repurchase Agreement, the Company purchased
the Notes for a cash payment of $300,000.
The Repurchase Price is being funded through a combination of
available Company funds generated from operations and a short-term
advance provided by the Company's President and Chief Executive
Officer.
Upon payment of the Repurchase Price, the Notes were deemed fully
satisfied, cancelled, and extinguished, and all security interests,
liens, guarantees, claims, rights, and obligations relating to the
Notes were released and terminated.
The redemption resulted in the termination of all conversion rights
associated with the Notes, including rights to convert into shares
of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $0.20 per
share.
Troy Grogan, President and CEO of QHSLab, commented:
"Through the first nine months of 2025, we continued to demonstrate
strong operational momentum and revenue growth across our digital
health and integrated service program. Our 35 percent
year-over-year revenue increase in the third quarter reflects the
effectiveness of our technology, the engagement of our physician
customers, and the scalability of our solutions within primary care
settings."
"The repurchase of our legacy convertible notes is another
important step forward. Eliminating over $1.4 million in defaulted
debt obligations significantly strengthens our balance sheet,
reduces interest expense going forward, and removes a large
conversion overhang that posed a significant dilution risk to our
shareholders. This action positions QHSLab for a healthier
financial trajectory as we plan our next phase of growth."
"Looking ahead to 2026, we remain focused on advancing our digital
medicine ecosystem, strengthening our relationships with
primary-care providers, and expanding collaborative efforts with
behavioral health groups. We continue to pursue new opportunities
in population health, cognitive assessment, allergy diagnostics,
and preventive care. Our priorities include growing recurring
revenues, improving cash flow, and leveraging strategic
partnerships to support long-term, sustainable profitability. With
a cleaner capital structure and stronger financial footing
following the retirement of our legacy debt, we believe QHSLab is
well-positioned to expand its market presence and deliver lasting
value for our shareholders."

REBORN PHOENIX: Amends Unsecureds & Habib Secured Claims Pay
------------------------------------------------------------
Reborn Phoenix Management, Inc., submitted an Amended Disclosure
Statement describing Amended Plan of Reorganization dated Nov. 24,
2025.
The Debtor was formed on March 29, 2016 for the purpose of
acquiring and managing property. On May 31, 2018 the Debtor
purchased commercial property located at 1015-1021 Woodfield Road,
West Hempstead, New York 11552 (the "Property").
The Property has four leased spaces that produce income and some
referral income which pays the Debtor's expenses and will be used
to fund the Plan. Each space's rent increases by approximately 5%
per year per the leases as reflected in the projections.
All payments due under the Plan will be funded by the post petition
income of the Reorganized Debtor from rent and contributions from
the Debtor's principal.
The Class II Secured Claim of Habib is secured against the
Property. The Habib Note matures in May of 2028 (the "Maturity
Date"). The Debtor shall pay Habib under the terms of the Note
until the Maturity Date, and upon the passing of the Maturity Date,
the note shall be modified as follows:
* The maturity date shall be extended for five years from the
maturity date, May 1, 2028, at the interest rate Habib utilizes at
the time of maturity;
* Upon maturity of the loan, May 1, 2028, the debtor will
provide Habib with an updated appraisal for the real property;
* The debtor must remain current and not be in default at the
maturity date and thereafter and provide yearly current financial
statements;
* No other terms of the loan shall be modified.
Class III consists of all General Unsecured Claims that are not
subject to dispute or setoff. Class III consists of the claims of
the New York State Department of Taxation & Finance (Claim No. 1)
and the undisputed scheduled debt to AMWINS Group, Inc. and the
claim of Best Deal Global Inc. (Claim No. 3). Class III shall
receive payment of said claims in full $337,190.33 over 127 monthly
payments beginning on the Effective Date.
Such payments shall be made at an interest rate of 9% to provide
the present value of the claims as of the effective date to Class
III creditors. Within these monthly payments, the Debtor's equity
owner is providing $20,000.00 with the first payment as subsequent
new value in support of her retaining her interest. Class III is
impaired and cannot vote on the Plan.
Class IV includes only the membership interests of Julia Chai. The
organizing records of the company reflect 100% membership interest.
Under the Plan, Class IV retains its interest, is not entitled to
vote, and is deemed to have accepted the Plan.
As provided in the Plan, all payments, distributions, and transfers
of cash or property under the Plan are in full and final
satisfaction, settlement and release of all claims whatsoever
existing as of the Confirmation Date against the Debtor, the Estate
and the Reorganized Debtor, of any kind or nature whatsoever. These
releases shall be effective upon Substantial Consummation of the
Plan.

S&G HOSPITALITY: RSS Loses Bid to Strike Settlement Recordings
--------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Mina Nami Khorrami of the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of Ohio denied RSS COMM2015-PCI-OH BL, LLC's
amended motion to strike certain recordings and testimony that it
believes are inadmissible as settlement negotiations in the
bankruptcy case of S&G Hospitality Inc.
RSS holds secured claims against each Debtor and has filed the same
proof of claim in each of the Debtors' cases.
The loan that is currently held by RSS and which forms the basis
for the RSS Claims was originally incurred by the Debtors in 2015,
and it is secured by mortgages on all of the Debtors' real
properties and a blanket security interest on all of the Debtors'
personal property. There is no dispute about these loans, their
validity, or the priority of the liens held by RSS.
The Debtors dispute the value of the collateral securing the RSS
Claims and therefore the extent to which the RSS Claims are secured
under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 506, which will be resolved in a separate
valuation proceeding. Further, the Claims Objection seeks to
disallow portions of the RSS Claims related to interest, default
interest, prior default interest, and various fees which RSS has
included in its proofs of claim. In the Claims Objection, the
Debtors quoted from a recording of a Zoom videoconference held in
April 2020 between the principal of the Debtors and the
representative of the servicer of the loan. The Debtors also
referenced a recording of a second Zoom videoconference held in May
2020 and provided a summary of that videoconference. In the Motion
to Strike, RSS requests that the Quoted Statements be stricken from
the Claims Objection, and that any recordings of both
videoconferences (including, without limitation, the Quoted
Statements) be excluded from evidence at the hearing on the Claims
Objection.
RSS argues that Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence makes the
Quoted Statements inadmissible because they were either offers to
compromise or were made during a settlement discussion.
The Debtors contest the Motion to Strike for several reasons. They
argue that Rule 408 does not apply because the Quoted Statements
set forth an unconditional statement and were not proposing a
compromise. They also argue that the Quoted Statements are not
offered to establish the invalidity of the RSS Claims or their
amount.
The Court has determined that the Quoted Statements are admissible
under Rule 408. According to the Court, there is no evidence that
at the point in the April Zoom Videoconference when the Quoted
Statements were made, the parties were discussing any kind of
compromise, and therefore the statements cannot be viewed as having
been made during a compromise negotiation.
The Court finds RSS has not met the demanding burden of showing
that the Quoted Statements are clearly inadmissible on all
potential grounds. Therefore, the Quoted Statements are admissible
at the Claims Objection Hearing, and they will not be stricken from
the Claims Objection. The Motion to Strike is therefore denied.

12, 2025, is available at https://urlcurt.com/u?l=vjxJwm from

amount of 11.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2029. The offering of
the Secured Notes is expected to close on December 5, 2025, subject

The Secured Notes and related note guarantees will be secured up to
an amount of $400 million, subject to permitted liens, by a
first-priority security interest in substantially all present and
hereafter acquired property and assets of Foreign Guarantors (other
than certain excluded assets). In addition, the collateral will
also consist of a pledge by Sabre Financial of its loan receivables
under the intercompany loan and a pledge of all equity interests in
Sabre Financial held by Sabre Financing. Certain Foreign Guarantor
guarantees and collateral will be granted after the issue date of
the Secured Notes.
Sabre Financial will use the gross proceeds from the sale of the

together with cash on hand, to prepay, redeem, repurchase or extend
certain of its existing indebtedness in the open market, in
privately negotiated transactions, through tender or exchange
offers, or otherwise, including pursuant to the Sabre GLBL's
concurrently announced offers to exchange certain of Sabre GLBL's
existing secured notes and refinancing of certain Sabre GLBL's
existing term loans, and/or pursuant to the terms of the agreements
governing such indebtedness, as well as to pay related accrued and
unpaid interest, premium, fees and expenses.

SABRE CORP: Launches Exchange Offers to Extend Debt to 2030
-----------------------------------------------------------
Sabre Corporation announced on Nov. 20, 2025, that Sabre GLBL Inc.,
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sabre, has commenced exchange offers
to exchange:
(i) any and all of its outstanding 8.625% Senior Secured Notes due
2027 and 11.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 and
(ii) up to the 2029 Notes Maximum Exchange Amount of its 10.750%
Senior Secured Notes due 2029 for Sabre GLBL's new 10.750% Senior
Secured Notes due 2030, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions described in the confidential offering circular, dated
as of November 20, 2025, for the Exchange Offers.
The primary purpose of the Exchange Offers is to improve the
Company's maturity profile by extending the maturity date of the
indebtedness represented by the Existing Notes from 2027 and 2029,
as applicable, to 2030.
The aggregate principal amount of New Notes to be issued pursuant
to the Exchange Offers is subject to a minimum principal amount of
$300 million.
The maximum aggregate principal amount of New Notes that Sabre GLBL
will issue in the Exchange Offer for the 2029 Notes equals to $379
million (as such amount may be amended by Sabre GLBL in its sole
discretion, the "2029 Notes Maximum Exchange Amount").
If the aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes validly tendered on
or before the Early Exchange Date constitutes a principal amount of
2029 Notes that, if accepted by us, would exceed the 2029 Notes
Maximum Exchange Amount, we will not accept any 2029 Notes tendered
for exchange after the Early Exchange Date. In addition, if the
aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes validly tendered on or
before the Early Exchange Date constitutes a principal amount of
2029 Notes that, if accepted by us, would not exceed the 2029 Notes
Maximum Exchange Amount, we will accept all such tendered 2029
Notes for exchange before any 2029 Notes tendered after the Early
Exchange Date and on or before the Expiration Date are accepted.
If acceptance of all validly tendered 2029 Notes on any Settlement
Date is less than the 2029 Notes Maximum Exchange Amount, we will
accept all validly tendered 2029 Notes. If acceptance of all
validly tendered 2029 Notes on any Settlement Date would result in
us exceeding the 2029 Notes Maximum Exchange Amount, the tendered
2029 Notes will be accepted on a pro rata basis.
If the principal amount of 2029 Notes returned to a holder as a
result of proration would result in less than the applicable
minimum denomination of the 2029 Notes being returned to such
holder, we will either accept or reject all of such holder's 2029
Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the
Exchange Offer for the 2029 Notes.
The New Notes will mature on March 15, 2030 and will bear interest
at a rate per annum equal to 10.750%. The New Notes will first be
redeemable, at Sabre GLBL's option, starting on March 15, 2027, at
105.375% of their outstanding principal amount, plus accrued
interest, and under certain other circumstances described in the
Offering Circular.
The New Notes and the guarantees thereof will be senior secured
indebtedness and will rank equal in right of payment with all of
the existing and future senior secured indebtedness of Sabre GLBL
and the guarantors. The New Notes will initially be jointly and
severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed by Sabre
Holdings Corporation and all of Sabre GLBL's current and future
restricted subsidiaries that are borrowers under or guarantee Sabre
GLBL's senior secured credit facilities under certain of its
existing credit agreements or certain other secured indebtedness.
The New Notes and the guarantees thereof will be secured, subject
to permitted liens, by a first-priority security interest in
substantially all present and hereinafter acquired assets of Sabre
GLBL and each of the guarantors (other than certain excluded
assets).
The New Notes will be guaranteed by the same parties and on the
same basis, and secured by the same assets and on the same basis,
as the Existing Notes. In addition, the covenants in the indenture
for the New Notes will be substantially the same as the covenants
applicable to the Existing Notes.
The Exchange Offers will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time,
on December 19, 2025, unless extended, unless earlier terminated.
Tenders of Existing Notes may be withdrawn from the Exchange Offers
at or prior to, but not after, 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
December 4, 2025, unless extended.
Eligible Holders must validly tender their Existing Notes at or
prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on December 4, 2025, unless
extended, to be eligible to receive the Total Exchange
Consideration, which includes the Early Exchange Premium
for such Existing Notes.
Eligible Holders tendering Existing Notes after the Early Exchange
Date and on or before the Expiration Date will only be eligible to
receive the Exchange Consideration, which will equal the Total
Exchange Consideration for such series of Existing Notes less the
applicable Early Exchange Premium.
In addition to the Total Exchange Consideration or Exchange
Consideration, as applicable, Eligible Holders whose Existing Notes
are accepted for exchange will be paid the accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, on the Existing Notes to, but not including, the
early settlement date, which is expected to be December 8, 2025,
unless extended on such Existing Notes; provided, however, that
since any New Notes issued on the final settlement date, which is
expected to be December 23, 2025, unless extended will be issued
with accrued interest from the Early Settlement Date up to, but not
including, the Final Settlement Date, the amount of such accrued
interest on any such New Notes will be deducted, from the cash
payable as accrued interest on the Existing Notes exchanged on the
Final Settlement Date, provided further that such net amount will
not be below zero.
For the avoidance of doubt, Eligible Holders (as defined below) who
validly tender Existing Notes of a series after the Early Exchange
Date but on or before the Expiration Date, will not receive accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, on such Existing Notes from the Early
Settlement Date through the Final Settlement Date.
In addition, Eligible Holders of the December 2027 Notes whose
tenders are settled after December 1, 2025 and before December 15,
2025 will be deemed to have consented to giving up any claim to the
interest payment due on December 15 in respect of the December 2027
Notes that they might otherwise have as a result of the related
interest payment record date of December 1, 2025, and will receive
only the accrued interest.
Interest on the New Notes will accrue from (and including) the
Early Settlement Date. Interest on the New Notes will accrue from
(and including) the Early Settlement Date.
Sabre GLBL's obligation to accept for exchange the Existing Notes
validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in each Exchange Offer
is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions as
described in the Offering Circular, including the New Notes
Issuance Minimum and the consummation of the SPV Notes Private
Offering (as defined below). Such conditions may be waived by Sabre
GLBL in its sole discretion, subject to applicable law. Any waiver
of a condition by Sabre GLBL will not constitute a waiver of any
other condition.
For avoidance of doubt, the Exchange Offer in respect of one series
of Existing Notes is not conditioned on the Exchange Offer in
respect of another series of Existing Notes, or vice versa. Sabre
GLBL reserves the right to extend, amend or terminate any Exchange
Offer for any reason or for no reason. In addition, Sabre GLBL
reserves the right to increase, decrease or otherwise change the
Maximum Exchange Amount in its sole discretion without extending
the Early Exchange Date or the Withdrawal Deadline or otherwise
reinstating withdrawal rights, subject to compliance with
applicable law and the terms of outstanding indebtedness. Sabre
GLBL will not receive any cash proceeds from the Exchange Offers
and will not incur additional indebtedness in excess of the
aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes that are exchanged in
the Exchange Offers.
Concurrently with the Exchange Offers, Sabre GLBL is offering to
its lenders to refinance certain of its existing term loans.
In addition, Sabre Financial Borrower, LLC, a subsidiary of Sabre
GLBL, has commenced a private offering (the "SPV Notes Private
Offering") of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior
secured notes due 2030.
The SPV Notes will be guaranteed by Sabre Financing Holdings LLC,
Sabre Financial's direct parent company, and, up to an amount of
$400 million, certain of Sabre GLBL's existing and future foreign
subsidiaries organized under the laws of Australia, England and
Wales, Iceland, Luxembourg, Poland, Singapore and Uruguay. The SPV
Notes will not be guaranteed by Sabre GLBL, Sabre Holdings, or the
other guarantors of the New Notes.
The proceeds from the SPV Notes Private Offering will be lent by
Sabre Financial to Sabre GLBL pursuant to a secured loan, which
will be guaranteed by Sabre Holdings and the same subsidiaries of
Sabre GLBL that guarantee the Existing Notes and will guarantee the
New Notes and will be secured equally and ratably by liens on the
same assets of Sabre GLBL, and the guarantors that guarantee the
Existing Notes and will guarantee the New Notes.
Sabre GLBL currently anticipates, subject to execution of
definitive documentation and certain customary closing conditions,
that the proceeds from the SPV Notes Private Offering will result
in Sabre GLBL's receipt of gross proceeds which, together with cash
on hand, will be sufficient to fund the cash portion of the
Exchange Offers, including accrued interest for all Existing Notes
validly tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offers and accepted for
purchase by Sabre GLBL, subject to the terms and conditions of the
Exchange Offers, as well as the cash consideration to be provided
in the Term Loan Refinancing. No assurances can be given that the
SPV Notes Private Offering will be completed. The SPV Notes Private
Offering is being made only to holders of Existing Notes that:
(i) we either reasonably believe to be "qualified institutional
buyers" as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended or
(ii) are located outside the United States and are not "U.S.
persons" as defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act. This
press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy the SPV Notes, and shall not
constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in
which, or to any persons to whom, such offering, solicitation or
sale would be unlawful. Any offers of the SPV Notes will be made
only by means of a private offering memorandum.
The consummation of each Exchange Offer is not subject to, or
conditioned upon, the consummation of the Term Loan Refinancing.
The consummation of the Term Loan Refinancing is not subject to, or
conditioned upon, the consummation of any Exchange Offer. The Term
Loan Refinancing and the SPV Notes Private Offering are subject to
market conditions and there can be no assurance that any or all of
them will in fact be consummated in the manner described herein or
at all.
The Exchange Offers are being made only to holders of Existing
Notes that have certified, by submitting an instruction to the
clearing system, that they are either:
(i) "qualified institutional buyers" as defined in Rule 144A or
(ii) are located outside the United States and are not "U.S.
persons" as defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act.
Only Eligible Holders are authorized to receive or review the
Offering Circular or to participate in the Exchange Offers. Non
U.S.-persons may also be subject to additional eligibility
criteria.
Perella Weinberg Partners is acting as a capital markets advisor in
connection with the Exchange Offers.
Information Relating to the Exchange Offers:
The complete terms and conditions of the Exchange Offers are set
forth in the Offering Circular. The Offering Circular contains
important information and Eligible Holders are encouraged to read
it in its entirety. The Offering Circular will only be distributed
to Eligible Holders who complete and return an eligibility form

under Rule 144A or not a "U.S. person" under Regulation S under the

respective boards of directors and stockholders, the Exchange Agent
or Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as trustee for the Existing
Notes and New Notes, are making any recommendation as to whether
holders should tender any Existing Notes in response to the
Exchange Offers. Holders must make their own decision as to whether
to tender any of their Existing Notes, and, if so, the principal
amount of Existing Notes to tender.
The New Notes have not been and will not be registered under the
Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States
absent registration or an applicable exemption from the
registration requirements. The New Notes have not been approved or
disapproved by any regulatory authority, nor has any such authority
passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of the Offering Circular.

SAMYS OC: Plan Exclusivity Period Extended to December 30
---------------------------------------------------------
Judge Mitchell L. Herren of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Kansas extended Samys OC, LLC's ("SOCL") exclusive
periods to file a plan of reorganization and obtain acceptance
thereof to December 30, 2025 and March 1, 2026, respectively.
As shared by Troubled Company Reporter, the Debtor explains that it
has since decided to close the Lawrence KS restaurant and list the
property for sale. The property is currently list for sale. The
Debtor continues to try to resolve the IRS claim.
The Debtor asserts that its Counsel has been working to review the
pleadings filed in the case, the pleadings filed in the related
cases, and has been working with the Debtor and Creditors to
formulate its Chapter 11 Plan. Counsel for the Debtor and the
Debtor believe that additional time is needed to allow Counsel for
the Debtor, the Debtor, and Creditors to continue to work to
formulate the Debtor's Chapter 11 Plan.
The Debtor further asserts that the extension of time for the
filing of the Plan and Disclosure Statement and the extension of
time for the exclusivity periods will not work a hardship on
creditors and is in the best interest of all parties to allow the
Proof of Claim deadlines to expire and to allow Counsel for the
Debtor and the Debtor to continue to work to formulate the Debtor's
Chapter 11 Plan.

SERVICE CORP: Term Loan Upsized No Impact on Moody's Ba2 CFR
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings said that Service Corporation International's (SCI)
announced senior unsecured bank credit facility extension to $2.5
billion does not affect its ratings. The extension includes an
increase in the term loan to $750 million from the current $629
million and an upsizing of the revolving credit facility to $1.75
billion from $1.5 billion. The maturity of the facility has also
been extended to November 2030 from January 2028. Proceeds from the
issuance will be used to repay the current revolver draw and
refinance the existing revolver and term loan. As a result of the
transaction, debt/EBITDA leverage will remain unchanged, at around
4.0x for the twelve month period ending September 30, 2025. SCI's
ratings, including the Ba2 corporate family rating, Ba2-PD
probability of default rating, Baa3 senior unsecured bank credit
facility ratings and Ba3 senior unsecured notes ratings remain
unchanged at this time. The outlook remains stable.
Moody's considers the transaction credit positive because it
reprices and extends SCI's maturity profile while increasing the
company's revolver borrowing capacity by $250 million. In addition,
SCI will reprice the facility, which is expected to lower its
interest expense and support cash flow generation. The transaction
is neutral from a financial leverage perspective. Moody's views the
company's liquidity profile to be very good as indicated by the
speculative grade liquidity rating (SGL) of SGL-1.
Service Corporation International (NYSE: SCI) is North America's
largest provider of funeral, cemetery and cremation products and
services, catering to both at-need and pre-need arrangements. As of
September 30, 2025, the company operates an industry-leading
network of 1,487 funeral service locations and 499 cemeteries
across 44 states, 8 Canadian provinces, the District of Columbia,
and Puerto Rico. Moody's anticipates revenue of about $4.4 billion
in 2026.

SHIPWRECK TREASURE: Gets Extension to Access Cash Collateral
------------------------------------------------------------
Shipwreck Treasure Ventures Corp. received second interim approval
from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida,
Jacksonville Division, to use cash collateral to fund operations.
The second interim order authorized the Debtor to use cash
collateral to pay the amounts expressly authorized by the court,
including payments to the Subchapter V trustee, and current and
necessary operating expenses outlined in its budget. This
authorization will continue until further hearing.
The budget projects total operational expenses of $17,105.00 for
period from November 3 to December 2.
Secured creditors will be granted a replacement lien on the
Debtor's post-petition property, with the same validity, priority
and extent as their pre-bankruptcy lien.
The next hearing is scheduled for December 8.
The Debtor's cash collateral includes revenue, which it uses to
fund ongoing business operations. Four merchant cash advance
lenders assert an interest in the cash collateral: LCF Group
(approximately $5,000), JRG Funding (approximately $50,000),
Merchant's Cash Group (approximately $65,000), and High Octane
Funding (approximately $15,000). These lenders have pre-petition
liens on all of the Debtor's assets and receivables.

SOUND VISION: Plan Exclusivity Period Extended to Feb. 18, 2026
---------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Louis A. Scarcella of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of New York extended Sound Vision Care, Inc., and
its debtor affiliates' exclusive periods to file a plan of
reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to February 18, 2026
and April 19, 2026, respectively.
As shared by Troubled Company Reporter, the Debtors explain that
these Chapter 11 cases have been pending for only two months, and
meaningful progress has already been made. However, to propose a
viable plan, the Debtors must still assess the full scope of claims
against the estates and determine the value that can be realized
from their retail optometry operations. At present, the Debtors'
limited staff and resources remain focused on stabilizing
operations and monetizing remaining assets.
The Debtors claim that until the Bar Dates pass and claims are
reviewed and reconciled, formulating a confirmable plan would be
premature. Certain claims may also require an extended resolution
timeline. Extending the Exclusive Periods will ensure the Debtors
can propose a plan that reflects both the economic realities of the
business and the claims' landscape, while also providing creditors
with the information they need to evaluate the plan and disclosure
statement.
The Debtors assert that they remain committed to filing a
consensual plan, if possible, and will endeavor to continue to work
with its key constituents to maximize value for creditors. The
Debtors are continuing to operate their retail optometry offices in
a manner that maximizes efficiency and the returns to the estates.
The requested enlargements of the Exclusivity Periods are also
appropriate because the Debtors have been paying, and will continue
to pay, its undisputed postpetition debts as they come due.

ULTIMATE PAVERS: Claims to be Paid from Continued Operations
------------------------------------------------------------
Ultimate Pavers Inc., and Eduardo Fernandez filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida an Amended
Joint Plan of Reorganization under Subchapter V dated November 24,
2025.
Ultimate Pavers is a Florida profit corporation and was formed
under the laws of the State of Florida on October 27, 2010.
Since its inception, Ultimate Pavers has been primarily engaged in
the business of designing and installing brick pavers and other
outdoor features at commercial and residential properties. Ultimate
Pavers' operations have historically generated income through
contracts for projects primarily in Hillsborough County and
Pinellas County, Florida.
Eduardo Fernandez owns 100% of Ultimate Pavers and works full time
in the operations of Ultimate Pavers.
This Plan proposes to pay the Creditors of the Debtors with the
revenues generated from the continued operation of Ultimate Pavers
and the income received by Fernandez over the Term of the Plan.
The term of this Plan (the "Plan Term" or "Term of the Plan") shall
begin on the Effective Date and shall continue for 36 months.
This Plan provides for the payment in full of all Allowed
Administrative Claims, Allowed Priority Claims, and Allowed
Priority Tax Claims as required by Section 1129(a)(9) of the
Bankruptcy Code.
Each Holder of an Allowed Secured Claim will receive payment in
full of such Claim, or other treatment consistent with Section
1129(b)(2)(A) of the Code, as set forth in Article 4 of this Plan.
Class 6 is comprised of the Allowed Unsecured Claims of Ultimate
Pavers in the Corporate Case. The total amount of liquidated,
scheduled, and filed Claims comprising Class 6 is approximately
$105,533.24, which is subject to change based on any objections to
such Claims. The liquidation value or amount that unsecured
creditors would receive in a chapter 7 case is approximately $0.00.
Accordingly, Ultimate Pavers proposes to pay each Holder of an
Allowed Claim in Class 6 its pro rata share of $1,500.
Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims in Class 6 shall not
exceed the Allowed Amount of such Claims.
The pro rata share of Distributions on account of any Allowed Claim
in Class 6 will be calculated as a fraction of the amount of any
such Distribution, the numerator of which shall be the Allowed
Amount of the Class 6 Claim of any particular Holder of a Class 6
Claim and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate amount of
all Allowed Claims in Class 6. Distributions to Holders of Allowed
Class 6 Claims will be paid in full on or before the first Business
Day that is 90 days after the Effective Date. Class 6 is impaired.
Class 7 consists of All Equity Interests in the Debtor. Holders of
Equity Interests shall be entitled to retain such Interests;
provided, however, that Holders of Allowed Equity Interests shall
not be entitled to any Distribution from the Estate on account of
such Equity Interests until the earlier of: (i) the end of the term
of this Plan; or (ii) such time as all Allowed Unsecured Claims in
Class 6 are paid in full.
Class 9 is comprised of the Allowed Unsecured Claims of Fernandez
in the Individual Case. The liquidation value or amount that
unsecured creditors would receive in a hypothetical chapter 7
liquidation is $20,300.45, with the majority of that amount being
paid to the IRS as a Priority Tax Claim. Accordingly, the Debtor
proposes to pay each Holder of an Allowed Claim in Class 9 its pro
rata share of $1,500. Distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims in
Class 9 shall not exceed the Allowed Amount of such Claims.
The pro rata share of Distributions on account of any Allowed Claim
in Class 9 will be calculated as a fraction of the amount of any
such Distribution, the numerator of which shall be the Allowed
Amount of the Class 9 Claim of any particular Holder of a Class 9
Claim and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate amount of
all Allowed Claims in Class 9. Distributions to Holders of Allowed
Claims in Class 9 will be made in a single payment on or before the
first Business Day that is 180 days after the Effective Date. Class
9 is impaired.
Payments required under the Plan will be funded from the Cash held
by the Debtor on the Effective Date and revenue or other funds
received by the Debtor after the Effective Date after payment of
operating expenses including from the net proceeds from the pursuit
of any Causes of Action held by the Debtor on the Effective Date.
With the foregoing assets, the Debtor believes it will be able to
(i) pay in full all Allowed Administrative Expense Claims, and (ii)
make a Distribution to Holders of Allowed Unsecured Claims in an
amount greater than those parties would receive in a chapter 7
liquidation.

UNRIVALED BRANDS: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to March 3, 2026
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Unrivaled Brands, Inc. and Halladay Holding, LLC asked the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California to extend
their exclusivity periods to file a plan of reorganization and
obtain acceptance thereof to March 3, 2026 and April 30, 2026,
respectively.
The Debtors explain that the opposition of Greenlane to the
Abandonment Motion and the result of that contested matter will
have to be taken into account in the companies' finalized amended
plan and disclosure statement. Accordingly, the Debtors submit this
factor weights in favor of a further extension so that the Debtors
are allowed sufficient time to resolve the pending issues before
them.
The Debtors claim that they have demonstrated substantial good
faith progress in these cases and have diligently sought to advance
these cases since the Petition Date. The Debtors have been working
to incorporate the settlement into an amended plan and disclosure
statement. The Debtors are operating in good faith and intend to
work collaboratively with their creditors as evidenced by the
Debtors' success on the global settlement.
The Debtors cite that their bankruptcy cases have been pending for
approximately one year, and this is the Debtors' fourth request for
an extension of their plan exclusivity periods. This will be the
last request for an extension of the exclusivity deadlines. Under
Section 1121(d)(2)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, the exclusive
deadline may not be extended more than 18 months after the Petition
Date. The proposed extended deadline of March 3, 2026 falls within
16 months of the Petition Date.
The Debtors assert that their request for an extension of their
plan exclusivity periods is being made in good faith and is not
being made for the purpose of pressuring creditors into acceding to
certain plan terms. The goal of the requested extension is to
continue productive negotiations with Greenlane for the benefit of
all creditors.
The Debtors further assert that they will need additional time to
finalize an amended plan and disclosure statement to account for
the results of the pending litigation concerning the Abandonment
Motion. The Debtors submit that these contingencies warrant an
extension of their plan exclusivity periods. Accordingly, the
Debtors respectfully submit that this factor also weighs in favor
of an extension of the Debtors' plan exclusivity periods.

The Debtors have articulated reasonable and sufficient business
justifications for the proposed sale.
The proposed purchase price for the property is fair and
reasonable, is the highest and best offer for the property, is in

or all of the vehicles to the buyer on the terms of the proposal
for $26,000.

paid to New Washington State Bank in full satisfaction of its liens

VINCENT GALLO: Unsecureds to Split $54,600 over 60 Months
---------------------------------------------------------
Vincent Gallo & Sons, Inc. filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Small Business Plan of Reorganization dated November 24, 2025.
The Debtor is a Landscaping and Property Maintenance Contractor.
The Debtor was formed on or about 1969 and maintains long standing
relationships and contracts for landscaping and property
maintenance work with both commercial and residential clients.
The Debtor was initially successful and produced significant
revenues from its Landscaping and Property Maintenance contracting
until unfortunately operations were significantly impacted by the
COVID pandemic in 2020. As a result, the Debtor's operations and
ability to manage projects were hampered. Moreover, as was the case
with many other contracting companies, the Debtor post-COVID faced
severe supply chain disruptions, extreme pricing volatility and a
labor shortage.
Unfortunately, as a result, the Debtor fell behind on payments to
the taxing authorities and separately, the Debtor's longtime
bookkeeper and accountant developed significant health issues
preventing his ability to provide critical services to the Debtor,
eventually leading regrettably to his passing.
The Debtor is proposing to satisfy its allowed creditor claims in
part from future operations and revenues derived from ongoing and
long-standing landscaping and property maintenance contracts as
well as newly acquired snow plowing contracts. The Debtor has also
taken affirmative steps to increase its net profits by acquiring
new contracts, adjusting its monthly pricing and reducing operating
expenses.
Class 3 consists of General Unsecured Claims. The allowed unsecured
claims total $258,504.08. The Debtor is proposing to pay the
allowed General Unsecured a fixed sum of $54,600.00 over a
sixty-month term as follows:
* Year 1 ($6,000): Monthly Payments of $500 commencing on the
Effective Date.
* Year 2 ($9,000): Monthly Payments of $750 commencing on the
thirteenth month following the effective date.
* Year 3 ($10,800): Monthly Payments of $900 commencing on the
twenty fifth month following the effective date.
* Year 4 ($13,200): Monthly Payments of $1,100 commencing on
the thirty-seventh month following the effective date.
* Year 5 ($15,600): Monthly Payments of $1,300 commencing on
the forty-ninth month following the effective date.
Class 4 consists of Equity Interest Holders. Paid to the extent
available after payment of all other creditor claims.
The Debtor is proposing to satisfy its allowed creditor claims in
part from future operations and revenues derived from ongoing and
long-standing landscaping and property maintenance contracts as
well as newly acquired snow plowing contracts. The Debtor has also
taken affirmative steps to increase its net profits by acquiring
new contracts, adjusting its monthly pricing and reducing operating
expenses.
On Confirmation of the Plan, all property of the Debtor, tangible
and intangible, including, without limitation, licenses, furniture,
fixtures and equipment, will revert, free and clear of all Claims
and Equitable Interests except as provided in the Plan, to the
Debtor.

WAND NEWCO 3: Moody's Affirms B3 CFR & Alters Outlook to Pos.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings changed Wand NewCo 3, Inc.'s (dba Caliber
Collision, "Caliber") outlook to positive from stable. At the same
time, Moody's affirmed Caliber's B3 corporate family rating, B3-PD
probability of default rating and the B3 ratings on the senior
secured revolving credit facility, term loan B and 2032 senior
secured notes.
The change in outlook to positive reflects Caliber's improving
operating performance amid industry headwinds with positive same
store sales, increasing EBITDA and consistent positive free cash
flow. The positive outlook also considers Caliber's voluntary term
loan repayment over the required amortization. The company's
debt/EBITDA has improved to 5.6x as of September 2025 from 6.5x as
of year-end 2024 while EBITA/interest expense has also improved to
1.5x from 1.1x during the same period. Over the next 12 months,
Moody's expects debt/EBITDA will modestly improve in the mid 5x
range and EBITA/interest will remain around 1.5x, on the back of
continued momentum in topline growth from both existing and new
locations, cost efficiencies and modest reduction in debt despite a
weak consumer environment.
RATINGS RATIONALE
Caliber's B3 CFR is supported by its scale and industry-leading
position in the highly-fragmented collision repair industry.
Caliber, with nearly full national coverage, has approximately the
same number of body shop locations as its next two biggest
competitors combined. The rating is also supported by Caliber's
long-standing relationships with most major national insurance
carriers, which represent the vast majority of the company's
revenues. In addition, vehicle miles traveled continue to grow
while cost of repairs, driven by increasing complexity of
technology in automobiles, continue to rise. However, the company
also contends with shortages of skilled auto technicians amid a
challenging consumer environment. The B3 CFR also reflects
Caliber's geographic concentration in certain markets as well as
aggressive financial strategies under private equity ownership
including prior sizable debt-funded shareholder distributions.
FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS
The ratings could be upgraded if Caliber demonstrates continued
solid operating performance and demonstrates that its financial
policies can support EBITA/interest coverage sustained above 1.5x
and debt/EBITDA sustained below 6.0x as well as robust free cash
flow generation and good liquidity.
Ratings could be downgraded should Caliber's liquidity weaken, if
EBITA/interest coverage is sustained below 1.0x and/or if Caliber
fails to maintain positive free cash flow to debt. Debt-funded
distributions to shareholders would also be a factor.
Wand NewCo 3, Inc. is a leading collision repair provider currently
operating 1,853 locations in the United States under the Caliber
Collision banner with revenues of about $7.7 billion for the
twelve-month period ended September 2025. The company is majority
owned by Hellman & Freidman LLC.
The principal methodology used in these ratings was Retail and
Apparel published in September 2025.
Wand NewCo 3, Inc.'s B1 scorecard-indicated outcome is two notches
above the assigned B3 corporate family rating reflecting its
aggressive financial strategies, including a tolerance for high
leverage and debt-funded dividends.
WATERBOY SPORTS: Seeks Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in Florida
-------------------------------------------------------
On November 24, 2025, Waterboy Sports LLC commenced Chapter 11
proceedings in the Middle District of Florida. Court documents show
the Debtor carries between $1 million and $10 million in debt and
lists 1–49 creditors.
About Waterboy Sports LLC
Waterboy Sports, LLC is a Florida-registered LLC operating from
Orlando that supplies hydration systems and water-distribution
equipment to sports teams, schools, and recreational leagues.
Waterboy Sports LLC filed for Chapter 11 protection under the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. M.D. Fla. Case No. 25-07635) on November
24, 2025. The petition reflects estimated assets of $0–$100,000
and estimated liabilities in the range of $1 million to $10
million.
The matter is assigned to Honorable Bankruptcy Judge Tiffany P.
Geyer.
The Debtor is represented by Daniel A. Velasquez, Esq. of Latham,
Luna, Eden & Beaudine, LLP.
WEABER INC: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to Jan. 28, 2026
-------------------------------------------------------------
Weaber Inc. asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District
of Pennsylvania to extend its exclusivity periods to file a plan of
reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to January 28, 2026
and March 28, 2026, respectively.
The Debtor explains that it has met its burden of showing "good
cause" to extend the Exclusivity Period because it has actively
been engaged in developing a plan for its operations as a
reorganized company and has performed its duties as a Debtor in a
timely manner to date.
The Debtor claims that it has filed an omnibus motion to reject
three contracts, and another motion to reject one contract, which
is part of its reorganization plan. The Debtor has been in active
negotiation regarding a multi-million-dollar fire loss. The Debtor
has also been in serious and fruitful negotiations with its largest
secured creditor which must be completed before a plan can be
filed.
The Debtor believes that extending the Exclusivity Period to file a
plan and solicit acceptances will further the interests of the
Debtor and its estate by enabling the Debtor to refine its plan for
business operations post-confirmation and complete negotiations
with all of its different creditor constituency.
The Debtor believes that if the Exclusivity Period are not extended
as requested, the Debtor's efforts to reorganize will be
compromised. Further, the Debtor alleges that no harm or prejudice
will inure to the creditors of the Debtor if the Exclusivity Period
is not extended.

WORKSPORT LTD: Opens Missouri Facility for SOLIS & COR Launch
-------------------------------------------------------------
Worksport Ltd. announced on November 18, 2025, a strategic
expansion of its U.S. operation capability with the opening of a
newly leased facility in Missouri that will serve as the Company's
dedicated assembly center for the SOLIS solar-integrated tonneau
cover. This milestone marks a significant progression in
Worksport's growth strategy, elevating the Company's operational
scale, geographic reach, engineering integration, and commercial
readiness as it moves into the clean-tech commercialization phase.
A Strategic Operation Decision
That Strengthens Worksport's Growth Path
SOLIS solar-integrated tonneau covers are assembled in Missouri,
using advanced engineering to integrate imported solar and
electronic systems with U.S.-based assembly, testing, and
distribution. The decision to initiate SOLIS assembly in Missouri
is rooted in both operational strategy and long-term scalability.
Missouri provides a central U.S. location that optimizes national
shipping routes, reduces outbound logistics costs, and offers
access to a skilled workforce co-located with Worksport's
experienced industrial engineering team.
This expansion more than triples the footprint of Worksport's
previous Missouri based R&D only location. The Company has secured
the new facility under a three-year lease and anticipates the need
for additional expansion before the term concludes due to ongoing
optimization efforts and growing demand. While the Company's
152,000 sq ft Buffalo, NY facility continues scaling production of
its AL-platform covers, Missouri will take on the new growth phase
of Worksport, the SOLIS solar cover. Missouri will also serve as a
distribution hub for the Worksport COR.
"Missouri positions Worksport at the center of U.S. logistics and
gives us critical access to our engineering talent that can support
the technical requirements of SOLIS," said Steven Rossi, CEO of
Worksport. "This is an investment in efficiency, capacity, and
quality. It is also a strong signal that Worksport is strategically
scaling."
Direct Oversight Between Engineering and
Assembly Enhances Quality and Speed
The Missouri facility is located alongside the Company's expanded
R&D center, creating a direct integration between engineering,
testing, and final assembly for the solar cover platform. This
proximity allows Worksport to refine the SOLIS assembly process in
real time, improve product performance, and accelerate the
transition from early assembly to high volume operations.
SOLIS requires specialized operators trained in electronic wiring,
circuitry, and solar assembly to attach specialized solar panels to
Worksport's tonneau cover platform. Consolidating these
capabilities near the engineering team strengthens quality control
and ensures rapid iteration as the product moves into expanded
volumes.
"We can literally walk prototypes from the lab into the assembly
area, validate improvements, and deploy them immediately," Rossi
continued. "This is how premium products are developed, and this
structure gives us a competitive advantage."
High Operational Leverage With
Minimal Capital Expenditure
Worksport reports that the expansion in Missouri required very
little capital investment, thanks to compatibility with existing
equipment and processes. This low-CapEx expansion increases
operational leverage at a time when the Company is scaling into
higher-margin products for significantly broader markets.
The Company highlights the following advantages:
* More capacity without significant spend
* Faster commercialization timelines for SOLIS
* Lower risk and higher returns on the Company's growth
initiatives
'Build-to-Order' System Elevates Customer
Experience and Financial Efficiency
Final SOLIS units will be produced in the USA from domestic and
imported components, using Missouri assembly; Worksport's
'build-to-order' model offers several advantages over traditional
inventory-based manufacturing:
* Every cover incorporates the most up-to-date components,
firmware, and engineering
* Units ship directly to customers, reducing storage damage
risks and handling costs.
* The system supports higher-quality output, tighter cost
controls, and improved working capital efficiency.
* Capacity naturally scales with demand, offering strong
operational flexibility.
This model aligns Worksport with best practices seen in high-end
electronics and premium automotive manufacturing.
Availability and launch timing:
The SOLIS Solar Cover and COR Portable Energy System will be
available for order on November 28, 2025.

WORLDWIDE MACHINERY: Amends Unsecureds & Caspian Loan Claims Pay
----------------------------------------------------------------
Worldwide Machinery Group, Inc. and its affiliated debtors
submitted an Amended Combined Disclosure Statement and Joint
Chapter 11 Plan dated November 24, 2025.
The Plan is a liquidation plan. Under the Plan, the ABL
Administrative Agent and the ABL Lenders will retain the $54
million from the closing of the Going-Concern Transaction that they
have already received in full satisfaction of their claims against
the Debtors and shall receive a release from the Debtors.
The remaining Cash from the Going-Concern Sale and from the
Debtors' operations prior to the Going-Concern Sale shall be used
to pay priority claims, Administrative Claims (including
Professional Fees) and to fund the activities of the Plan
Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall pursue various Retained
Estate Claims and Causes of Action, including a Claim against
Gordon Brothers for violating a non-disclosure agreement and
certain avoidance actions. The proceeds from the Causes of Action
(net of costs) will be available to pay certain Administrative
Claims for Professional Fees and to make distributions to unsecured
creditors, including General Unsecured Creditors and the deficiency
claims of the Caspian Lenders.
Although the Debtors believe that some of their Causes of Action
have merit, litigation is by its nature risky and there is no
guaranty that the Debtors will receive any proceeds therefrom.
Recoveries to unsecured creditors occur only if the Plan
Administrator is successful in recovering proceeds from Causes of
Action. The Plan further provides for the termination of all
Interests in the Debtors, the dissolution and wind-up of the
affairs of the Debtors and their Affiliates, and the vesting of any
remaining assets in the Wind-Down Debtors on the Effective Date.
Class 3 consists of any Caspian Loan Claims against any Debtor.
Each Holder of an Allowed Caspian Loan Claim shall receive its Pro
Rata share of Distributable Cash and Wind-Down Debtor Assets net of
Wind-Down Debtor Expenses (which shall be distributed to all
Holders of Allowed Class 3 and Class 4 Claims on a Pro Rata basis);
provided that any distributions on account of the Wind Down Debtor
Assets shall only be made following payment in full of, or reserve
for, Allowed Administrative Claims, Allowed Priority Tax Claims,
Allowed Priority Non-Tax Claims, and Allowed Professional Fee
Deficiency Claims.
Class 4 consists of any General Unsecured Claims against any
Debtor. Each Holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim shall
receive its Pro Rata share of Distributable Cash and Wind-Down
Debtor Assets net of Wind-Down Debtor Expenses (which shall be
distributed to all Holders of Allowed Class 3 and Class 4 Claims on
a Pro Rata basis); provided that any distributions on account of
the Wind-Down Debtor Assets shall only be made following payment in
full of, or reserve for, Allowed Administrative Claims, Allowed
Priority Tax Claims, Allowed Priority Non-Tax Claims, and Allowed
Professional Fee Deficiency Claims. Class 4 is Impaired under the
Plan.
As of the Effective Date, each Claim against the Debtors shall be
deemed satisfied, settled, and released as to the Debtors as
provided with respect to each such Claim under this and, except as
otherwise set forth in this Plan or other Final Orders of the
Bankruptcy Court, any Holder of an Allowed or Disputed Claim
against the Debtors will have recourse solely to the Wind-Down
Debtor Assets net of Wind-Down Debtor Expenses, as applicable, for
the payment of any such Claim that is Allowed or becomes Allowed in
accordance with the Plan and the Plan Administrator Agreement;
provided, however, the recovery provided to any Holder of a Claim
that is Allowed or becomes Allowed shall be limited to and
consistent with the terms of the Plan.
Distributions under the Plan shall be funded by (i) the proceeds of
the Going-Concern Transaction, and (ii) the Wind-Down Debtors from
the Wind-Down Debtor Assets; provided, however, that Allowed
Professional Fee Claims (other than Allowed Professional Fee
Deficiency Claims) shall be paid from the Professional Fee Escrow
Account or Distributable Cash, as applicable. The Wind-Down Debtor
Assets shall be used to pay the Wind-Down Debtor Expenses
(including the compensation of the Plan Administrator and any
professionals retained by the Wind-Down Debtors), the Allowed
Professional Fee Deficiency Clams, and to satisfy payment of
Allowed Claims and Interests as set forth in the Plan.
A hearing to consider the final approval of the Disclosure
Statement and Confirmation of the Plan has been set for December
22, 2025, at 1:00 p.m.
Objections to the final approval of the Disclosure Statement or
objections to Confirmation of the Plan must be filed with the
Bankruptcy Court and served on counsel for the Debtors on or before
December 17, 2025.

Plan dated November 24, 2025 is available at

WT REPAIR: Gets Extension to Access Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------
WT Repair, LLC received another extension from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Kansas to use the cash collateral of
First National Bank and Trust to fund operations.
The court issued a second interim order authorizing the Debtor to
use cash collateral for the period from the expiration of its June
9 initial order to 30 days after the conclusion of the sale of
equipment pursuant to the October 31 order that granted FNBT
partial relief from automatic stay.
As adequate protection, FNBT will continue to receive a monthly
payment of $3,000. The secured creditor reserves the right to argue
that amount is insufficient.
In addition, FNBT will be granted replacement liens on
post-petition assets that are similar to its pre-bankruptcy
collateral and are automatically perfected without further
documentation. These replacement liens do not apply to Chapter 5
avoidance actions.
The Debtor must maintain insurance, file and pay post-petition
taxes timely, provide monthly operating reports by the 21st of each
month, and provide weekly documentation of transactions exceeding
$1,000. All cash collateral must be deposited into the DIP account
with documented sources.

YELLOW CORP: To Sell LaGrange Property to J.T. Jones Development

free and clear of liens, claims, interests, and encumbrances.
The Bidding Procedures provide that the Debtors, in their business
judgment and in consultation with the Committee, may enter into
private sale transactions for their Real Property Assets.

Deadlines have been rescheduled to dates and times to be

Hudson Road, LaGrange, Georgia 30240.
On November 25, 2025, the Debtors’ advisors shared advanced

follows intensive, hard-fought, and good-faith negotiations with
the Purchaser regarding the terms and provisions of the Asset
Purchase Agreement and follows thorough marketing of the Subject
Property.
The Debtors believe that it is beneficial to their stakeholders and
will maximize the value of the Subject Property (and, in turn,
their estates and creditor recoveries) to consummate the Sale
Transactions under the Asset Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Price
proceeds to be obtained by the Debtors' estates under the Asset
Purchase Agreement is approximately $275,000 with the buyer, J.T.

This is a fun read. Fun enough to take the beach, although at 500
pages it's a bit hefty to hold up while you lounge in the sandy
towel. It's got all the elements of great entertainment: a
trainload of money, courtroom melodrama, and a host of extremely
odd characters, including a couple of Texas state court judges who
could make California's Judge Ito look like Justice Brandeis. You
might even throw in a biblical analogy -- many pundits did --
although for my money Pennzoil chair J. Hugh Liedtke was a little
too wily and a lot too flush to be David-with-a-slingshot.
Everyone knows the story. In 1984 Texaco bought Getty Oil for
$9.98 billion, days after the Getty board had made a handshake deal
with Pennzoil to sell three-sevenths of its assets for a 10 percent
lower price per share. Did Texaco tortiously interfere with
Pennzoil's oral contract, or was Getty free (and in fact
duty-bound) to accept Texaco's higher offer? I'll leave you there
on the edge of your seat.
Yes, the plot is familiar, but as they say, God is in the details,
and the Pulitzer Prize-winning author, a professional journalist
who covered the trial for the Wall Street Journal, gives us details
aplenty. He's sieved the most intriguing and significant facts
from a daunting amount of evidence: 50,000 pages of affidavits,
hours of video testimony, 250 interviews.
You'll collect your favorite factoids as you go along. Mine have
to do with the succession of judges, the first of whom had a close
relationship with Pennzoil attorney Joe Jamail, while the second
hadn't read the trial record when he took over the gavel and made
his ignorance of the governing New York law seem almost a point of
pride.
The flamboyant Jamail (who collected $400 million fee for his work,
of which $50 million reportedly has been given to charities) was
known previously, the author tells us, for such feats as convincing
a jury that the City of Houston was negligent for planting a tree
that his client ran into while drunk. Here, he won the verdict for
his client, in part, by exploiting that shopworn cliche‚ of trial
practice -- the local good ol' boys versus the big city pinstripes.
Is an oral agreement in principle a binding contract?
Metaphorically shrugging, Mr. Jamail told the jury, "Sure looks
like a deal to me." It worked like a charm.
Engrossing as the deal, trial, and verdict are, the author offers
more. His first 150 pages provide useful background on the
respective oil empires, and chronicles Getty's history in detail.
But don't take my word that this book is worth the money. Read
what the white-shoe critics had to say when this book first came
out in 1987. "A riveting drama," said the New York Times Book
Review. "Pure excitement . . . More fun than flying on corporate
jet," per the Dallas Times Herald, with presumably more experience
in flying on corporate jets than I can claim. "A real-life script
fit for TV's Dallas . . . Harold Robbins and Robert Ludlum let
loose in the world of Texas good ol' boys and New York takeover
specialists," opined the Washington times.
So maybe you'll drop this one into your carry-on bag after all.

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
