138 GREENE: Amends First Mortgagee Claims Pay Details
-----------------------------------------------------
138 Greene Retail, LLC submitted an Amended Disclosure Statement
describing Plan of Reorganization dated November 26, 2025.

The Debtor's primary assets are shares in a cooperative housing
corporation known as Greene Street Holding Corp. (the
"Cooperative") and a proprietary lease (collectively, the
"Property") for the ground floor and basement units of the real
property at 132- 140 Greene Street, New York, New York.

SIG CRE 2023 Venture LLC ("Lender"), as successor to Signature
Bank, filed a claim against the Debtor in the amount of
$19,528,204, secured by a security interest in the Property.

During this case, the Debtor made a settlement offer to the Lender
that includes selling the Property in bankruptcy court.

First Mortgagee consists of the Claim of First Mortgagee. Based the
filed proof of claim, the Claim totals $19,528,204 for principal
plus accrued interest and fees as of the Petition Date. Payment of
available Cash up to Allowed Amount of Class 2 Claim, after payment
of Administrative Expenses, Statutory Fees, priority tax Claims,
Class 1 Claims and Class 5 Claims.

In the event the Property is sold to the First Mortgagee by credit
bid, the First Mortgagee shall not be required to pay Cash to
consummate the sale, but shall permit Cash Collateral to be used to
satisfy (i) Allowed Administrative Expense Claims and
pos-tConfirmation wind up costs; (ii) Allowed Priority Claims;
(iii) U.S. Trustee fees Statutory Fees; and (iv) a general creditor
reserve of up to $25,000 (the "Creditor Reserve") from which a pro
rata distribution shall be made to the holders of allowed unsecured
claims. If the Property Sale Proceeds are insufficient to pay the
Claim in full, the deficiency amount shall be treated as a Class 6
Claim.

For the avoidance of doubt, under the Plan, (a) the Lender is
entitled to make a credit bid in the amount of its full claim and
is entitled to a deficiency claim for any remaining amount owed,
(b) any Cash Collateral (as that term is defined in the Bankruptcy
Code) remaining in the Debtor's debtor in possession account
following the closing of the Property sale under the Plan shall be
disbursed to the Lender, and (c) the Debtor is deemed to consent to
an order granting Lender relief from stay to enforce it rights upon
any failure by the debtor to comply with the terms of the Plan.

Class 6 consists of General Unsecured Claims. Claims total
approximately $141,207. Payment of available Cash up to Allowed
Amount of Class 6 Claims, Administrative Expense Claims
post-Confirmation wind up costs; Allowed Priority Claims; Statutory
Fees, and Class 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 Claims. If no cash is available
from the Sale Proceeds, each Class 6 Claimant shall be entitled to
its pro-rata share of a $25,000 distribution fund. This Class is
impaired.

Class 7 consists of Interests Holders. Payment of available cash
after payment of Allowed Administrative Expense Claims
post-Confirmation wind up costs; Allowed Priority Claims; Statutory
Fees, and Class 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 Claims.

All outstanding United States Trustee fees shall be paid as they
come due. Fees due and owing pursuant to 28 U.S.C. section 1930,
together with interest, if any, pursuant to 341 U.S.C. 3717 shall
be paid in full, in cash on the Effective Date, and shall continue
to be paid post confirmation until the entry of a Final Decree, the
case is converted or dismissed.

Payments under the Plan will be paid from the Property sale
proceeds. The sale of the Property shall be implemented pursuant to
the Bidding and Auction Procedures. After the Confirmation Order is
entered, but prior to or on the Effective Date, the Property shall
be sold to Purchaser free and clear of all Liens, Claims, and
encumbrances, with any such Liens, Claims, and encumbrances to
attach to the Property Sale Proceeds, and disbursed in accordance
with the provisions of this Plan.

For mortgage recording tax purposes, the First Mortgagee shall
permit an assignment of its mortgage in connection with the sale of
the Property under the Plan. The Property shall be sold subject to
entry of a Bankruptcy Court order (i) approving the sale; (ii)
providing, inter alia, that the Purchaser is a good faith
purchaser; and (iii) providing that the sale of the Real Property
shall be free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances and
interests with any such liens, claims and encumbrances to attach to
the sale proceeds, and to be disbursed under the Plan.

Notwithstanding anything to the Contrary in the Plan, each Secured
Creditor including the First and Mortgagee retains the right to
credit bid under the Plan to the extent of its Secured Claim, but
in addition to its credit bid, to ensure Plan feasibility, any bid
by a Secured Creditor must include a cash component to cover the
costs of sale, Senior Lien Claims, Administrative Claims, Priority
Claims, and a $15,000 reserve fund for the costs of wrapping up the
case.

26, 2025 is available at https://urlcurt.com/u?l=XnUXIE from

23ANDME HOLDINGS: Pushes for Ruling on Wind-Down Trust Dispute
--------------------------------------------------------------
Angelica Serrano-Roman of Bloomberg Law reports that 23andMe is
seeking a ruling from the bankruptcy court to resolve a
disagreement between two committees over fee-related provisions in
an administration trust agreement tied to its wind-down plan. The
dispute could slow final implementation of the plan.

In a November 28, 2025 filing in the US Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Missouri, the company reported that extensive
negotiations produced agreement on most issues. Still, the
unsecured creditors’ committee and the equity committee continue
to disagree on professional-fee budgets and the party responsible
for claim-reconciliation duties.

The company filed dueling drafts of the trust agreement and urged
the court to choose the appropriate version so the wind-down
process can proceed without further delay, the report cites.

514 THAT WAY: Affiliate Gets OK to Access Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------------
Park at Crestview DENG, LLC, an affiliate of 514 That Way, LLC, got
the green light from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Texas, Houston Division, to use cash collateral.

Park at Crestview intends to use the cash collateral to operate an
apartment complex located in Austin, Travis County, Texas.

The property secures repayment of the $42.03 million loan entered
into by Park at Crestview in favor of Lument Real Estate Capital,
LLC, and assigned to Fannie Mae, a secured lender.  

In its sixth interim order, the court authorized Park at Crestview
to use cash collateral to pay expenses in accordance with its
budget.

Absent the secured lender's written consent, Park at Crestview may
not (i) allow any individual budget line item to exceed its
projected amount by more than 10%, or (ii) allow total actual
disbursements to exceed total projected disbursements by more than
5% as set forth in the budget.

As protection, Fannie Mae will be granted replacement liens on Park
at Crestview's property, whether acquired before or after the
petition date. The replacement liens do not apply to any causes of
action.

In addition, the lender will be granted a superpriority claim if
the replacement liens prove to be inadequate.

As further protection, Fannie Mae will receive a cash payment equal
to the amount by which Park at Crestview's remaining cash balance
at the end of the prior calendar month exceeded $20,000.

Park at Crestview's authority to use cash collateral will end upon
occurrence of so-called termination events including the dismissal
or conversion of its Chapter 11 case; the appointment of a trustee;
or entry of an order modifying or vacating the sixth interim
order.

A final hearing will be held on January 5, 2026.

AGI MARKETING: Seeks Cash Collateral Access
-------------------------------------------
AGI Marketing, Inc asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of Texas, El Paso Division, for authority to use cash
collateral and provide adequate protection.

The Debtor operates its business providing website management and
online marketing services to a broad client base and requires
access to cash collateral to continue ordinary business operations,
including paying expenses and maintaining services. The Debtor
notes that the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts and the City of
El Paso hold statutory liens on its assets, alongside potential
other creditors claiming liens.

To provide adequate protection for the use of cash collateral, the
Debtor proposes a replacement lien on its assets to the extent of
the current balance of claims, timely payments to taxing
authorities, adherence to a proposed operating budget with a 10%
variance limit without creditor consent, and access for creditors
to monthly operating reports.

The Debtor also commits to maintaining insurance necessary for
operations and making provisions for all owed taxes, including
those for 2025, through a future plan of reorganization, ensuring
no priming of one taxing authority over another.

A court hearing is set for December 3.

ALTMAN & NELSON: Gets Final OK to Use Cash Collateral
-----------------------------------------------------
Altman & Nelson Printing Co. Inc. received final approval from the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Victoria
Division, to use cash collateral.

The final order authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral to
fund operations consistent with its budget. The Debtor may use cash
collateral up to 105% of each budgeted expense, provided total
monthly spending does not exceed 5% of the overall budget.

The 30-day budget projects total cash disbursements of $28,554.21.

As adequate protection, secured creditors will be granted
replacement liens on post-petition cash collateral and newly
acquired property of the Debtor, with the same priority and scope
as their pre-bankruptcy liens. The replacement liens do not apply
to Chapter 5 causes of action and are subject and subordinate to
the fee carveout.

The Debtor's authority to use cash collateral automatically
terminates upon case dismissal or conversion to Chapter 7;
appointment of a trustee; expiration of the order without
extension; or a material breach such as noncompliance with the
approved budget. In the event of default, any party may notify the
Debtor and seek expedited relief from the court.

The final order is available at https://shorturl.at/nlJcM from
PacerMonitor.com.

Several creditors may hold security interests in the Debtor's
assets, including the U.S. Small Business Administration, First
Financial, Office Systems Center, and Funding Metrics, LLC,
according to a UCC lien search.

The Debtor had $2,077 in cash and $7,790 in accounts receivable on
the petition date. It also owns a vehicle valued at $70,000 and
leases equipment worth approximately $12,000.

ANDERSON HOOP: Court Extends Cash Collateral Access to Jan. 7
-------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida,
Orlando Division, entered a second interim order allowing Anderson
Hoop Dreams, Inc. to use cash collateral through January 7, 2026.

The court order authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral to pay
the amounts expressly authorized by the court, including payments
to the U.S. trustee for quarterly fees; the expenses set forth in
the budget, plus an amount not to exceed 10% for each line item;
and additional amounts subject to approval by Berkshire Bank.

The Debtor's three-month budget projects total operational expenses
of $117,110.

As adequate protection, Berkshire Bank and other secured creditors
will be granted a replacement lien on the Debtor's post-petition
property, to the same extent and with the same validity and
priority as their pre-bankruptcy lien.

The Debtor must maintain insurance as required by loan and security
agreements. The order preserves the rights of the U.S. trustee to
appoint a creditors' committee and allows challenges to lien
validity, priority, or extent.

A continued preliminary hearing on cash collateral is set for
January 7, 2026.

APPLIED POWDERCOAT: Seeks Cash Collateral Access
------------------------------------------------
Applied Powdercoat, LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Central District of California, Northern Division, for authority to
use cash collateral and provide adequate protection.

The Debtor explains that it had previously operated with First Bank
of the Lake's consent to use cash collateral on a month-to-month
basis through September 2025. Although FBOL initially agreed to
extend that arrangement into October, it abruptly withdrew consent
on October 29, 2025 and refused to execute the stipulation required
under the existing cash-collateral framework.

Faced with the imminent inability to fund payroll, materials, and
operating expenses, the Debtor filed an emergency motion on
November 5 seeking authorization to use cash collateral. The court
heard the matter on November 7 and granted interim relief through
November 19. At the continued hearing on November 19, the court
extended cash-collateral authority through December 10.

The Debtor now seeks a new order authorizing continued use of cash
collateral from December 11 forward, emphasizing that any
interruption in access to cash collateral would immediately
jeopardize operations, threaten employee retention, halt
production, and cause severe harm to both the bankruptcy estate and
the creditor body.

FBOL, holds a blanket lien on all personal property including the
only liens on accounts receivable and inventory secured by UCC-1
filings in 2022, and a limited lien on specific personal property
arising from seller financing in connection with the Debtor's 2022
asset purchase, and whose lien expressly excludes receivables and
inventory.

To demonstrate adequate protection, the Debtor provides a detailed
comparison of cash collateral values at the petition date,
September 29, and the estimated values as of December 1. Cash
increased from $9,385 at filing to $29,406 in September, settling
at an estimated $21,925 in December, while accounts receivable rose
steadily from $143,200 to $179,135 and are projected at $200,472 --
reflecting strengthened operations rather than deterioration of
collateral. Overall collateral increased from $152,585 to an
estimated $222,397, giving FBOL a projected collateral cushion of
approximately $70,000. The Debtor highlights that replacement liens
on post-petition receivables and cash have consistently protected
FBOL's interests, and that the business has remained stable and
improving throughout the case. To provide additional protection,
the Debtor voluntarily began making monthly adequate protection
payments of $5,000 to FBOL starting in November 2025, in accordance
with the interim cash-collateral order.

The Debtor submits a December 11–31 budget and a proposed monthly
budget for January–March 2026, requesting authority to (i) exceed
budgeted amounts by up to 15% of the monthly total and (ii) carry
forward unused budgeted funds without such carryover counting
against the variance allowance.

The Debtor explains that the case has largely been driven by the
need to address unsustainable occupancy costs under its lease with
Hagan Capital LLC. After exploring multiple options and failing to
reach long-term terms with Hagan, the Debtor secured an agreement
allowing it to remain in the current facility through year-end at
$18,500 per month while negotiating a more affordable relocation.
The Debtor has already identified a new facility, received a
proposed lease from the new landlord, and intends to file a motion
for approval prior to the cash-collateral hearing. The terms of the
new lease are expected to significantly reduce monthly rental
obligations and support the Debtor’s Subchapter V plan.

The Debtor also recounts that earlier in the case, the court
approved a first stipulation and order governing July–August cash
collateral use under weekly budgets, with an agreed mechanism for
future month-to-month extensions through filed stipulations. A
stipulation for September was filed and accepted, but FBOL's
withdrawal of consent for October derailed that process. Because
cash collateral use is essential to maintaining daily operations,
the Debtor argues that replacement liens, prior performance,
positive cash-flow projections, and ongoing adequate-protection
payments collectively demonstrate that FBOL’s interest will
remain fully protected.

A hearing on the matter is set for December 10.

ASBESTOS CORP: Extends CCAA Stay to Dec. 15, Ch.15 Recognized
-------------------------------------------------------------
Asbestos Corporation Limited announced on November 25, 2025, that
it continues to advance its restructuring efforts under the
Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act, following the issuance of an
initial order on May 6, 2025 and of an Amended and Restated Initial
Order by the Superior Court of Quebec (Commercial Division) on May
15, 2025.

Since the month of August, the Company has achieved significant
milestones in its restructuring efforts, including:

-- Second Amended and Restated Initial Order: On September 4, 2025,
the Court issued a Second Amended and Restated Initial Order
extending the stay of proceedings against ACL until December 15,
2025.

This extension provides ACL with additional time to advance its
restructuring initiatives in an orderly manner, in collaboration
with Raymond Chabot Inc., the court-appointed Monitor, and under
the Court's supervision.

-- Recognition in U.S. Chapter 15 Proceedings: On October 30, 2025,
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New
York issued a Recognition Order in the proceedings under Chapter 15
of the Bankruptcy Code, confirming recognition of the Canadian CCAA
proceedings as "foreign main proceedings".

This recognition ensures the stability of ACL's cross-border
restructuring process.

Certain parties in the United States have appealed the Recognition
Order and the Company intends to contest such appeal.

ACL is continuing to work on a comprehensive claims process and
expects to seek approval of a claims bar date order in the near
term. The Company is continuing to work closely with the Monitor to
ensure transparency and fairness throughout the process.

As disclosed in the Company's unaudited financial statements for
the quarter ended September 30, 2025, which are prepared on a
consolidated basis with ACL's primary shareholder, Mazarin Inc.,
ACL recorded a loss primarily attributable to the professional and
advisory fees incurred in the CCAA proceedings. ACL financed these
costs through the interim financing from certain of its insurers
approved by the Court as part of ACL's CCAA proceedings. These
expenditures, while significant, are considered essential to
advancing the restructuring process and preserving long-term value
for stakeholders. The repayment of the interim financing is secured
by a super-priority charge on ACL's assets. This charge ranks after
that of Mazarin Inc., which holds a universal security interest
over ACL's assets.

Documents related to the restructuring process, including the ARIO
and the Monitor's reports, are available on the Monitor's website:

BALCAN INNOVATIONS: S&P Downgrades ICR to 'B-', Outlook Negative
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its issuer credit rating on Balcan
Innovations Inc. to 'B-' from 'B'. The outlook is negative.

S&P said, "At the same time, we lowered our rating on the company's
secured term loan to 'B-' from 'B' and revised the recovery rating
to '4' from '3'. The '4' recovery rating indicates our expectation
for average (30%-50%; rounded estimate: 40%) recovery in the event
of a payment default.

"Balcan's third quarter financial results were considerably weaker
than expected and we revised down our revenue growth and margin
expectations for the company over the next couple of years.

"We now expect adjusted debt-to-EBITDA will be sustained above 8x
through 2026, with thin to negative free operating cash flow (FOCF)
and adjusted EBITDA interest coverage in the low- to mid-1x area.

"The negative outlook reflects the possibility of another downgrade
in the event we consider Balcan's capital structure unsustainable.
This could occur if market conditions remain challenging,
potentially leading to the company generating adjusted EBITDA
interest coverage close to 1x with elevated leverage and sustained
negative FOCF that could weaken its liquidity.

"The downgrade to 'B-' primarily reflects our expectation for lower
EBITDA margins following the company's weaker than anticipated
third quarter results. In 2026, we now expect leverage above 8x,
thin to negative FOCF, and interest coverage in the mid- to low-1x
area stemming from challenging macroeconomic conditions and
competitive pressures that should limit revenue and margin
expansion beyond what has been a challenging 2025 for Balcan."
During the first nine months ended August 31, 2025, the company's
adjusted EBITDA generation declined by about 40% compared to the
same period in 2024, in large part because of lower sales volumes.
The company sells most (about 65%-70%) of its products into
end-markets correlated with the U.S. housing construction market,
which has been notably weak in 2025. In addition, its customers
have reduced orders and destocked inventory in response to the
macroeconomic uncertainty (including tariffs).

Balcan's operating costs also increased this year because of
production inefficiencies that are in part a result of lower
capacity utilization at its facilities. In addition, the company
experienced challenges in reconfiguring its Montreal facility to
use a new lower cost resin formulation. This--combined with
Balcan's price discounting in response to increased competition and
an unfavorable shift in its product mix--resulted in a considerable
deterioration in the company's adjusted EBITDA margin during the
nine months ended Aug. 31, 2025 to about 10.5% from about 17% in
the same period in 2024. S&P said, "We expect the challenging
business dynamics, including weak demand and increased competition,
to persist over the next few quarters. We estimate this would lead
to S&P Global Ratings-adjusted EBITDA of C$60 million-C$65 million
in fiscal 2025 (ending November Nov. 30, 2025), which is down from
our previous estimate of approximately C$90 million and is about a
35% decline relative to fiscal 2024."

S&P said, "In our view, Balcan's earnings and cash flows beyond
this year are less predictable, particularly considering the
magnitude of the company's underperformance against our estimates
during the third quarter. We believe improved profitability is
predicated on demand recovering in its key end-markets and a
reversal of its weak operating trends. Moreover, the company must
accomplish this while tariff-related macroeconomic uncertainty
remains elevated, the pricing environment stays competitive, and
the company's key end-markets (particularly housing-construction
related) continue to be weak.

"That said, our base-case assumes demand for Balcan's products will
improve in fiscal 2026, particularly in the second half of the
year. This is predicated on a pick-up in industrial activity and
housing construction amidst declining interest rates in the U.S. We
expect that these factors--combined with operational improvements
and other cost benefits from scale efficiencies and higher capacity
utilization at its facilities, including the ramp up of its
Wisconsin facility—will contribute to revenue growth in the
low-to-mid single digit area and an expansion of adjusted EBITDA
margin by about 250 basis points (bps)-300 bps by fiscal 2027. As a
result, we forecast adjusted EBITDA will grow in the mid-teens
percent area beyond this year. This would contribute to adjusted
debt to EBITDA gradually declining below 8x and adjusted EBITDA
interest coverage above 1.5x by fiscal 2027 from about 10x and 1x,
respectively we expect for fiscal 2025."

Balcan's adequate liquidity and long-dated maturities could buy it
time for market conditions to improve. As of Aug. 31, 2025,
Balcan's liquidity consisted of C$8 million in cash on hand and
US$55million of availability under its US$75 million (C$100
million) revolving credit facilities, which mature in September
2029. S&P's base-case assumption is for liquidity sources to
decrease somewhat as the company uses up to C$40 million under its
revolving facility to fund its free cash flow deficits over the
next few quarters despite lowering capital expenditures to
maintenance levels of about C$15 million beyond 2025.

S&P said, "In our view, the company's available liquidity and lack
of meaningful debt maturities until its US$460 million term loan
comes due in October 2031 provide some runway for market dynamics
to improve to the point that the company can sustain positive FOCF.
We think this could occur within the next couple of quarters.

"We expect lower short-term interest rates to Improve FOCF
prospects and interest coverage ratios. Balcan's entire debt
structure incurs interest based on a variable rate. We assume
average short-term interest rates will decline by 90 bps-110 bps
over the next couple of years and contributing to an improvement in
interest coverage and FOCF generation.

"The negative outlook reflects the possibility that we would
consider Balcan's capital structure as unsustainable in the event
earnings further underperform against our estimates.

"We could lower our rating on Balcan within the next 12 months if
we consider the company's capital structure unsustainable. This
could occur if the company's liquidity position meaningfully
deteriorates, or we expect the company to sustain negative FOCF or
S&P Global Ratings-adjusted EBITDA interest coverage well below
1.5x. This scenario could result if the company generates little to
no earnings growth beyond this year, potentially due to operational
challenges, higher raw material costs, competitive pressures, or
weaker demand.

"We could revise the outlook to stable within the next 12 months if
the company's financial performance improves in line with or better
than our current estimates such that it generates S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted EBITDA interest coverage near or above 1.5x. In
this scenario, we would also expect Balcan to generate positive
FOCF, supported by organic revenue growth and improving EBITDA
margins."

BUTLER HEALTH: Fitch Alters Outlook on 'BB+' IDR to Stable
----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed Butler Health System's (BHS) Issuer
Default Rating (IDR) and the rating on revenue bonds issued by the
Butler County Hospital Authority on behalf of BHS at 'BB+'.

The Rating Outlook is revised to Stable from Negative.

   Entity/Debt                         Rating           Prior
   -----------                         ------           -----
Butler Health System (PA)        LT IDR BB+  Affirmed   BB+

   Butler Health System
   (PA) /General Revenues/1 LT   LT     BB+  Affirmed   BB+

The rating affirmation and revision to a Stable Outlook reflect
BHS's improving operating performance and its expectations for
continued improvement in FY 2026. The Stable Outlook is further
supported by the recent non-binding letter of intent (LOI) from
West Virginia University Health System (WVUHS) to become the sole
member of Independence Health System (or alternatively the sole
member of each of Excela Health and Butler Health System).

Independence Health (IHS), BHS's sole corporate member, was formed
in 2023 through the merger of BHS and Excela Health (Excela),
although BHS and Excela maintain separate obligated groups. Under
the terms of the LOI, WVUHS will fund other strategic investments
at IHS facilities. Terms also include a commitment by WVUHS to
ensure IHS, Excela and Butler fully meet the terms of their
respective financial liabilities and avoid default. Upon closing,
outstanding debt obligations will either be fully guaranteed,
defeased, refunded, or fully consolidated into WVUHS's debt
structure. WVU's acquisition of IHS remains subject to a final
definitive agreement along with regulatory and bondholder approvals
but is expected to close next fall.

BHS remains under a forbearance agreement with its bondholders and
with Truist Bank until June 10, 2026. BHS had 97 days cash on hand
(DCOH) as of June 30 (FYE, audited), which absent forbearance was
compliant with the 90 DCOH required by Truist and 75 DCOH MTI
requirement. Truist's pre-forbearance covenants also required
debt/capitalization of 65% or less. Calculated debt/capitalization
at FYE was 35%. At FYE, BHS had 102% cash to adjusted debt. Through
Sept. 30 (Q1 2026) operating EBITDA was 1.5%. Both operating and
balance sheet metrics suggest sustained financial performance
relative to FY 2025, and Fitch expects these metrics will improve
beyond FY 2026, providing support for the rating affirmation and
Outlook change to Stable.

SECURITY

The Series 2015A bonds are secured by a pledge of gross revenue of
the OG, which includes the hospital and is the majority of the
consolidated system's assets and revenue, and the lien of a
mortgage.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

Revenue Defensibility - 'bbb'

Leading Market Share; Broader Service Area Is Competitive

BHS enjoys leading market share within its primary Butler and
Clarion County service areas. The larger western Pennsylvania
market is competitive, particularly in and around Pittsburgh, which
is less than an hour's drive south. Two major integrated delivery
networks are based in Pittsburgh: UPMC Health System (IDR, 'A') and
Highmark/Allegheny Health Network (AHN). BHS has clinical
collaborations with both networks and other regional hospitals.

Despite operational challenges, BHS generally sustained more than
50% primary service area market share. This share is supported by a
large base of employed and aligned primary care physicians,
affiliations, joint ventures, and provider network. Over the past
year, BHS's patient volumes have been mixed but are stabilizing.

BHS's payor mix remains sound. Combined Medicaid and self-pay
account for about 11%-12% of system gross revenue. Its high
percentage of Medicare (about 58% to 60%) and commercial
reimbursement pressures (some of which are controlled by
competitors) limit BHS's flexibility to increase revenue, even
though it is a key provider for all commercial insurers.

Fitch expects service area characteristics will continue to support
a stable, but Medicare dominant, payor mix. Butler County continues
to experience modest population growth, with favorable household
income and favorable unemployment and poverty levels relative to
the Commonwealth and to the U.S. overall. The smaller 67-bed
Clarion Hospital (Clarion County) operates in a more challenging
economic climate with a declining population and lower median
household income, along with higher unemployment and poverty
levels.

Operating Risk - 'bb'

Operations Improving

While operations remain constrained, operating EBITDA improved to
1.8% in FY 2025 from negative 0.4% in FY 2024 through BHS's
cost-reduction initiatives, successful payor negotiations, and
increased discharges. But full-year outpatient, emergency
department (ED), and surgery volumes were flat to lower than the
prior year, reflecting competitive and staffing-related pressures,
and the need for BHS to upgrade its ED (which typically serves as a
hospital's "front door"). Operating results for the year were
somewhat weaker than originally budgeted and BHS remains challenged
by macro inflationary pressures and its need to utilize contract
staff and physician locums.

Two years-ago BHS engaged an outside consultant who helped identify
$60 million-$70 million of operating improvement opportunities.
Improved results over the past two fiscal years reflect initiatives
implemented to date, including in-payor contracting, workforce
management, revenue cycle, pharmacy operations, throughput
initiatives, and other measures. One key strategy saw BHS
mitigating reimbursement pressures stemming from significant cost
inflation in recent years. Additional gains in these and other
areas should be realized in FY 2026, even beyond WVUHS's potential
acquisition of IHS.

BHS is budgeting for above-break-even operating performance and a
6.0% operating EBITDA margin in FY 2026 on a consolidated basis. At
that level of performance, debt service coverage at MADS will be
approximately 3.0x. BHS's forbearance with its bondholders and bank
extends to June 2026, freeing it from the burden of complying with
covenant thresholds, but BHS was compliant with all debt covenants
at FYE 2025 and through Q1 2026 (September).

Over the longer term, rebuilding and sustaining patient volumes,
managing staffing, and ongoing operating improvements will support
the return to more stable and sustainable financial results.

Capital Spending

Fitch expects all but committed routine and life-safety capital
spending to remain limited over the near to intermediate term. For
FY 2025, BHS's capital spending was $16 million, equal to
approximately 80% of depreciation. Planned spending for FY 2026 is
approximately $17 million.

For FY 2027 and beyond, the LOI with WVUHS includes a commitment to
fund a minimum of $800 million of strategic, IT (Epic), and routine
capital spending for Independence Health over a five-year period. A
portion of the capital spending commitment will be allocated to BHS
facilities, including renovation of its ED.

Financial Profile - 'bb'

Financial Profile is Improving

BHS's financial profile reflects Fitch's expectations for operating
risk, liquidity and leverage metrics that, while adequate, provide
a limited but improving cushion in Fitch's forward-looking scenario
analysis, given operating pressures in the past three years.

BHS's leverage profile remained sound through the pandemic, but
cash to adjusted debt has shown signs of weakness since FY 2023 as
staffing and other expense pressures mounted and volume growth
slowed in a challenging payor reimbursement environment. At FYE
2025 (June 30 audited) cash to adjusted debt was 102% and DCOH was
97 on a consolidated basis. BHS's pension plans are more than 100%
funded and are not treated as a debt equivalent in Fitch's
analysis.

While liquidity remains adequate, BHS has limited flexibility and
does not have access to an outside line of credit. The forbearance
agreement alleviated the pressure to maintain cash above the bank's
90-day threshold through June 2026.

Fitch's base case is based on BHS's 2026 budget and assumes a
materially improved operating EBITDA margin for FY 2026 at 6.0%.
Over the next few years, Fitch's base case indicates cash to
adjusted debt will improve to over 150% while DCOH should improve
to around 120 days, assuming only gradual annual improvement to
operations.

Fitch's forward-looking stress case incorporates modest revenue
stress relative to the base case and a portfolio sensitivity
adjustment (investments are fully allocated between cash, cash
equivalents, and fixed income investments). Both DCOH and cash to
adjusted debt should remain adequate and above pre-forbearance
covenant thresholds on a forward-looking basis under the stress
case, exclusive of the expectation that WVUHS becomes IHS's sole
corporate member.

Asymmetric Additional Risk Considerations

The Stable Outlook reflects the definitive agreement for IHS's five
hospitals to be acquired by WVUHS and the expected closing.
Additionally, Butler received forbearance from compliance with its
bank and bondholder covenants through June 10, 2026, providing
relief to execute on operating turnaround plans without the threat
of debt acceleration.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- A declared event of default by Butler's bank and/or under the MTI
following the end of the forbearance period;

- Failure to sustain meaningful improvement in operating margins;

- Weaker balance sheet metrics, particularly any material
deterioration DCOH or cash-to-debt.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- Break-even or better operating margin;

- Sustained maximum annual debt service coverage near 2x or better
over time;

- Sustained cash/adjusted debt in excess of 125%.

PROFILE

Located in Butler County, PA, about 35 miles from Pittsburgh, BHS
is a 370 licensed-bed community hospital system that offers select
higher-end services in western Pennsylvania. BHS has two hospitals
(including Clarion Hospital) and over 50 outpatient care sites and
urgent care clinics. Total operating revenue in FY 2025 was $488
million (audited).

On Jan. 1, 2023, BHS and Excela Health consummated their agreement
to form a new five-hospital health system, with combined board
representation and more than $1 billion of total annual revenue.
The new entity Independence Health System serves as the parent
organization and sole corporate member of BHS and Excela. BHS and
Excela continue to operate as separate legal and obligated groups.
Fitch does not rate Excela Health's OG debt. Management maintains
separate financial reporting for the Butler and Excela OGs and
began producing a consolidated and consolidating Independence
Health and Subsidiaries audit in FY 2024.

On Nov. 19, WVUHS provided a non-binding LOI to become the sole
member of Independence Health (or alternatively, the sole member of
Excela Health and Butler Health System, of which Independence
Health is the sole member). WVUHS is the largest health system in
West Virginia with 25 hospitals, including one hospital in
Pennsylvania and two in Ohio. In FY 2024 (12-31) WVU's total
consolidated operating revenue was $6.7 billion.

Sources of Information

In addition to the sources of information identified in Fitch's
applicable criteria specified below, this action was informed by
data from Lumesis.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.


BYJU'S ALPHA: Co-Founders Lose Bid to Dismiss Adversary Case
------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Brendan Linehan Shannon of the United States Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Delaware denied the motion of Byju Raveendran
and Divya Gokulnath to dismiss the adversary proceeding captioned
as BYJU'S ALPHA, INC., Plaintiff, v. BYJU RAVEENDRAN, DIVYA
GOKULNATH, and ANITA KISHORE, Defendants, Adv. Pro. No.
25-50526-BLS (Bankr. D. Del.).

Debtor Byju's Alpha, Inc. was formed as a Delaware corporation on
September 27, 2021, as a special purpose financing vehicle for its
former Indian ultimate corporate parent, Think & Learn Pvt. Ltd.
T&L was co-founded by Raveendran and Gokulnath who both served,
along with Byju's younger brother Riju Ravindran, as T&L directors
at all relevant times, until their roles were suspended in July
2024, when T&L was involuntarily placed into an insolvency
proceeding in India.

This adversary proceeding is part of the Debtor's ongoing efforts
to unravel a series of fraudulent transfers that stripped the
Debtor of its assets (including the $533 million Alpha Funds and
the proceeds thereof), by placing those assets beyond the reach of
the Debtor and its creditors and concealing their whereabouts. On
February 27, 2025, the Bankruptcy Court issued a Memorandum Opinion
in a separate adversary proceeding that granted partial summary
judgment on claims of actual fraudulent transfer. The Debtor has
filed this adversary proceeding to hold three powerful BYJU's
executives accountable for having purposefully caused the Debtor to
fraudulently transfer an asset valued at over half a billion
dollars for no consideration.

The Complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duties, aiding
and abetting breach of fiduciary duties, accounting, conversion,
and civil conspiracy. The Summons was issued on April 9, 2025, the
same day the Complaint was filed.

On April 27-28, 2022, the Debtor (through Riju acting as the
Debtor's sole director and -- as he later testified during
depositions -- taking direction from the T&L Board) initiated three
wire transfers totaling $318,000,000 to Camshaft Capital Fund,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership for the purported purpose of
subscribing for a limited partnership interest. On July 12-13,
2022, the Debtor initiated three additional transfers to Camshaft
Fund in the total amount of $215,000,000 from another checking
account of the Debtor. In total, the Debtor transferred
$533,000,000 to Camshaft Fund in exchange for limited partnership
interests in Camshaft Fund pursuant to two sets of subscription
agreements and corresponding side letters.

The Complaint alleges that there was no legitimate reason for the
Debtor to allegedly "invest" over half a billion dollars in
Camshaft Fund, which at the time had under $10 million in assets
under management, particularly after the Debtor's multiple loan
defaults under the Credit Agreement. Accordingly, the Complaint
alleges the Camshaft Fund was a complete sham and William C.
Morton, Camshaft's founder, was an inexperienced and highly
unqualified manager.

The Complaint further alleges that the transfers to Camshaft Fund
rendered the Debtor insolvent, if it was not already so.
Specifically, the Debtor's liabilities (approximately $1.194
billion in outstanding principal on the defaulted loans as of July
12-13, 2022) far exceeded the Debtor's liquid assets (around $131
million in available funds), and the Debtor had no meaningful
active operations capable of generating income. To conceal the
movement of money from the Lenders, T&L's unaudited financial
statements continued to report that the Debtor held over $500
million in "Cash and Bank. In exchange for the transfer of the
Camshaft LP Interest  contemporaneously valued at $540,647,102.29),
the Debtor received no consideration whatsoever.

The Complaint details the actions of Raveendran, Gokulnath,
Kishore, Riju, and other business associates to continuously
conceal the $533 million, including T&L's falsified financials,
backdating the Transfer Agreement, and prepetition and
post-petition misrepresentations about the $533 million.

Defendants Raveendran and Gokulnath have filed a Motion to Dismiss
the Complaint on three separate grounds:

   (i) The Debtor has failed to properly serve them with the
Summons and Complaint;
  (ii) The Court lacks personal jurisdiction over them; and
(iii) The Complaint fails to state valid claims against them.

According to the Court, even if the Moving Defendants were located
outside of the United States, the Plaintiffs have shown that they
conspired to defraud creditors with coconspirators who had
substantial contacts with this forum by directing fraudulent
activity using Delaware entities and harming U.S. creditors.
Accordingly, the Moving Defendants are also subject to personal
jurisdiction under the conspiracy theory test.

The Court finds there are sufficient factual allegations in the
Complaint to infer that the Moving Defendants (with Riju and
others) participated in the unlawful acts that harmed the Debtor
and its creditors.

The Court concludes that:

   (i) The Debtor properly served the Summons and Complaint upon
the Moving Defendants;
  (ii) This Court may exercise personal jurisdiction over the
Moving Defendants for the claims in the Complaint; and
(iii) The Complaint adequately states claims against the Moving
Defendants for aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, breach
of fiduciary duty (against Raveendran only), accounting,
conversion, and civil conspiracy.

petition signed by Timothy R. Pohl, chief executive officer, the
Debtor disclosed up to $1 billion in assets and up to $10 billion
in liabilities.

BYJU'S ALPHA: Wins Default Judgment v. Byju Raveendran
------------------------------------------------------
Judge Brendan Linehan Shannon of the United States Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Delaware granted BYJU's Alpha, Inc. and GLAS
Trust Company LLC's motion for default judgment and award of
damages against Byju Raveendran for his failure to comply with the
expedited discovery orders in the adversary proceeding captioned as
BYJU'S ALPHA, INC., Plaintiff, v. BYJU RAVEENDRAN, DIVYA GOKULNATH,
and ANITA KISHORE, Defendants, Adv. Pro. No. 25-50526-BLS (Bankr.
D. Del.).

This adversary proceeding is part of the Debtor's ongoing efforts
to unravel a series of fraudulent transfers that stripped the
Debtor of its assets (including the $533 million Alpha Funds and
the proceeds thereof, by placing those assets beyond the reach of
the Debtor and its creditors and concealing their whereabouts. The
Debtor commenced this adversary proceeding against Defendants Byju
Raveendran, Divya Gokulnath and Anita Kishore on April 9, 2025,
asserting claims for breach of fiduciary duties, aiding and
abetting breach of fiduciary duties, accounting, conversion and
civil conspiracy.

Raveendran argues that the Plaintiffs cannot demonstrate prejudice
because his failure to respond to expedited discovery early in the
case does not prevent the Plaintiffs from developing a trial
strategy. He also points out that his motion to dismiss for lack of
personal jurisdiction and improper service was pending when the
Plaintiffs filed this Motion.

In this case, the Court found that cause existed for the
Plaintiffs' requested expedited discovery. Raveendran's months-long
delay and ongoing refusal to adequately respond to court-ordered
discovery requests in this proceeding has severely prejudiced the
Plaintiffs by depriving them of important information and requiring
them to expend significant costs through at least five discovery
hearings and extensive motion practice.

In the Complaint, the Plaintiff's requested the Court to enter
judgment against the Defendants for:

   a. Award of damages for breach of fiduciary duties and aiding
and abetting such breach of fiduciary duties, including
compensatory damages caused to the Debtor and disgorgement of the
Alpha Funds, the Camshaft LP Interest, and/or the proceeds
thereof;
   b. An accounting of the Alpha Funds, the Camshaft LP Interest,
and/or the proceeds thereof;
   c. Award of damages for conversion of, and civil conspiracy to
defeat, the Debtor's ownership of the Camshaft LP Interest;
   d. Attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses incurred in this
adversary proceeding;
   e. Pre- and post-judgment interest up to the statutory maximum;
and
   f. Any other relief that this Court may deem just, proper, or
equitable under the circumstances.

In Count I (aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties), the
Plaintiffs allege that Raveendran substantially assisted his
brother's fiduciary breach in 2022 when Riju Ravindran executed the
first fraudulent transfer by causing the Debtor to transfer $533
million in cash to Camshaft Fund.

Counts II (breach of fiduciary duties), V (conversion), and VI
(civil conspiracy), all arise from Raveendran's transfer of the
Debtor's Camshaft LP Interest in March 2023 for no consideration to
related entity Inspilearn. Documentation shows that Camshaft Fund,
through its fund administrator, valued the Camshaft LP Interest at
$540,647,109.29 as of the March 31, 2013 transfer date. In the
related Camshaft Adversary, this Court previously recognized that
the valuation of the Camshaft LP Interest at $540,647,109.20 was
derived directly from documents prepared on behalf of Ravindran's
co-movant (Camshaft). Thus, there is sufficient documentation for
the Court to enter damages of $540,647,109.29 for Counts II, V, and
VI in the default judgment.

The Court will enter default judgment against Defendant Raveendran
under Rule 37(b)(2)(A)(vi) on Count I in the amount of
$533,000,000, and on Counts II, V and VI in the amount of
$540,647,109.29. Default judgment will also be entered on Count V,
directing Raveendran to provide a full and accurate accounting of
the Alpha Funds and any proceeds thereof, such as the Camshaft LP
Interest, including each and every subsequent transfer and any
proceeds thereof.

CANACOL ENERGY: Moody's Cuts CFR to C & Alters Outlook to Stable
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings downgraded Canacol Energy Ltd.'s (Canacol)
Corporate Family Rating to C from Ca. The Senior Unsecured Global
Notes rating was also downgraded to C from Ca. The outlook changed
to stable from negative.

Subsequent to actions, Canacol's ratings will be withdrawn shortly
following the filing for Chapter 15.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The downgrade of Canacol's ratings to C follows the announcement
that the company has filed for voluntary protection under Canada's
Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA). The filing aims to
restructure under court supervision while maintaining operations.
In addition, Canacol is seeking recognition of these proceedings in
the United States under Chapter 15, which facilitates cross-border
restructuring and asset protection. The rating action also takes
into account the financial reorganization process and Moody's views
of some prospect for recovery for existing creditors.

The Chapter 15 filing, following its initial creditor protection
under Canada's Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA),
reflects the company's deteriorating financial position, marked by
severe liquidity constraints, and an untenable capital structure.
Canacol's liquidity constraints result from declining production
volumes, accelerated debt amortization, elevated capital
expenditures relative to prior years, and ongoing interest and tax
payments. These factors, combined with limited access to new
financing and ongoing arbitration liabilities of around $22
million, restricted Canacol's financial flexibility.

As of September 2025, Canacol reported cash and cash equivalents of
$36.5 million, while facing monthly principal payments of $6.25
million on its $50 million Macquarie loan, approximately $25
million in principal and interest due in November, and ongoing cash
requirements for operations. The company's additional obligations
include the outstanding $495 million notes due 2028 and the $200
million under the revolving credit facility due 2027.

Canacol's ESG Credit Impact Score (CIS) of CIS-5, primarily
reflects governance risks captured by a Governance Risk score of
G-5. These scores indicate that the company's governance practices
pose a material risk to creditors and stakeholders, driven by
aggressive financial policies, weak risk management, and concerns
regarding management credibility and track record. The company's
aggressive financial policies resulted in a deterioration of
liquidity and ultimately led to the filing for Chapter 15.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's assessments of a prolonged
recovery period for Canacol as it undergoes court-supervised
reorganization, alongside its limited financial flexibility. This
outlook also incorporates expected losses to creditors that are
aligned with the current rating level.

PROFILE

Canacol, with headquarters in Alberta, Canada, is an independent
natural gas & oil exploration and production company in Colombia.
As of June 2025, its total assets amounted to $1,292 million.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Independent
Exploration and Production published in December 2022.

Canacol's C ratings are four notches below the scorecard-indicated
outcome of Caa1 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2025. The
difference reflects weak liquidity and the expected loss given that
the company filed for Chapter 15.


CCA CONSTRUCTION: Bankruptcy Court to Review Baha Mar Settlement
----------------------------------------------------------------
CCA Construction, Inc., CCA Bahamas Ltd. and CSCEC Bahamas, Ltd.
announced on November 26, 2025, that they have reached a
comprehensive agreement with BML Properties Ltd. to resolve their
legal dispute over the construction of the Baha Mar resort.

In accordance with the agreement, BMLP is dropping all claims in
the U.S. and The Bahamas against CCA, CCAB and CSCECB and their
respective affiliates without any admission of liability on their
part.

The agreement is subject to approval by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
in New Jersey, which CCA hopes to obtain in the coming days.

CCAB will retain its ownership interest in the British Colonial and
Margaritaville Beach Resort hotels, which the company believes will
benefit the entire Bahamian community well into the future.

The resolution follows CCA, CCAB and CSCECB's motion to appeal the
New York State Supreme Court's prior decision and CCA's filing for
chapter 11, which had been pursued in parallel to protect the
interests of the co-defendants' stakeholders.

"We are pleased to have successfully resolved this matter and to
move forward with clarity and certainty for our employees,
customers and partners," said Yan Wei, Chairman & CEO of CCA.
"While we remain convinced by the strength of our legal arguments,
bringing this matter to a close is in the best interests of our
stakeholders and will allow us to focus fully on our strategy for
delivering world-class construction projects and hospitality
operations to our customers. We thank our team and partners for
their continued support and look forward to many opportunities
together. We also want to extend our appreciation to the people and
businesses of The Bahamas for their continued friendship and trust
as we look to deepen our relationships in the country."

CCA Construction Inc. sought relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. D.N.J. Case No. 24-22548) on December 22,
2024. In the petition filed by Yan Wei, chairman and chief
executive officer, the Debtor reports reports estimated assets
between $100 million and $500 million and estimated liabilities
between $1 billion and $10 billion.

CELANESE US: Moody's Cuts CFR to 'Ba2', Outlook Negative
--------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has downgraded Celanese US Holdings LLC's
(Celanese) Corporate Family Rating to Ba2 from Ba1, Probability of
Default Rating to Ba2-PD from Ba1-PD, senior unsecured shelf
ratings to (P)Ba2 from (P)Ba1, backed senior unsecured ratings and
backed senior unsecured revenue bonds issued under Public Finance
Authority, WI to Ba2 from Ba1. The outlook remains negative.
Celanese's Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating remains unchanged at
SGL-2.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The rating downgrade reflects Celanese's subdued earnings
performance and slower-than-anticipated deleveraging amid a
prolonged downturn, as well as significant debt maturities over the
next two years. Volumes and prices for Celanese' acetyls chain and
engineered materials fell year on year in the first nine months of
2025 due to lackluster construction activities, weak demand from
automotive and durable goods. Moody's expects the challenging
business conditions will continue at least through the first half
of 2026, keeping its rolling twelve months reported EBITDA at a
depressed level of about $1.9 billion in the near term. Focus on
cash flow generation (nearly $700 million to $800 million expected
for 2025) and announced Micromax divesture ($500 million expected
in Q1 2026) will help repay about $900 million maturing debt in
2026, out of its total reported debt of about $13 billion at the
end of September 30, 2025. Moody's expects adjusted debt/EBITDA
will improve to 5x-6x by the end of 2026 from 7.1x at the end of Q3
2025, but still above the 4.5x threshold for maintaining a Ba1 CFR.
Slower deleveraging will leave the company in a weaker financial
position, with approximately $2.2 billion debt due in 2027. Moody's
anticipates the company will manage its debt maturities through a
combination of free cash flow generation, asset divestures and
refinancing transactions.

Celanese also faces the challenge of maintaining its market
leadership and achieving earnings forecasts while management works
to lower the cost base and reduce debt. Maintaining a strong
business profile and meeting earnings forecasts are challenged by
increasing competition and spending cuts. In particular, Engineered
Materials segment will need to develop and commercialize new
products to ensure a healthy project pipeline, as its western
automotive customers face fierce competition with Chinese
automakers. Although Celanese' acetyls business has a globally
advantaged feedstock cost position, lackluster construction
activities have kept acetyl prices low and earnings at cyclical
trough longer than expected. It will take time for the company to
reap the benefits of its expanded low-cost acetic acid production
in Clear Lake.

Celanese' rating is supported by the company's substantial scale
(about $10 billion in revenues) and 20% EBITDA margin in both of
its main businesses (Engineered Materials and Acetyls). The value
of its portfolio allows the company to execute business strategy
and continue to generate positive free cash flow and reduce debt
over time. It also reflects the potential of earnings improvement
from business restructuring and an expected, albeit delayed,
recovery in demand after three years of weakness. Celanese has
accelerated business restructuring, including facility shutdowns
and headcount reductions, to counter earnings weakness and
significantly reduced dividends to direct cash flow to debt
repayment.

The negative outlook reflects the challenges of improving earnings
and executing asset divestures to reduce debt leverage against the
uncertain macroeconomic backdrop, as well as the looming debt
maturities.

Celanese' SGL-2 is supported by its large cash balance ($1.4
billion at the end of September 2025), free cash flow, expected
assets divestures, full availability under the $1.75 billion
revolver due 2030. Short-term debt includes $526 million Euro notes
due July 2026 and $400 million notes due August 2026. Currently,
the company has about $2.2 billion debt due in 2027. Celanese has
recently amended the revolver covenant to allow additional room
under the leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio.

Celanese's Credit Impact Score of CIS-3 indicates that ESG
considerations have a limited impact on the current credit rating
with potential for greater negative impact over time. The company's
$11 billion debt funded acquisition of DuPont's M&M business in
2022 resulted in a high debt leverage. An extended period of
downturn in the chemical sector has aggravated its credit risk. The
company also faces increasing expenses and capital required to
reduce emissions and address environmental regulations.
Environmental risks are significant for chemical companies due to
the amount of waste and pollution. Social risks are also
significant due to the nature of the products produced and the
associated health and safety risks from exposure to materials that
can be flammable or toxic.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

Celanese' rating could be downgraded if the company fails to
improve its earnings, generate at least $500 million of free cash
flow and make progress on reducing debt leverage to below 5.0x in
the next two years through a combination of free cash flow
generation and asset divestures. A downgrade may also occur if
liquidity weakens or if refinancing risk increases.

Rating upgrade would require earnings improvement, debt leverage
below 4.5x and free cash flow to debt over 6% on a sustained basis,
as well as management's commitment to conservative financial
policies. Maintaining a strong and competitive business profile
with positive revenues growth and an over 20% EBITDA margin are
also key factors for us to consider a rating upgrade.

Celanese Corporation, headquartered in Irving, Texas, is a leading
global producer of acetyls, vinyl acetate monomer, emulsions,
acetate tow and engineered thermoplastics. Celanese acquired
majority of DuPont de Nemours, Inc.'s (DuPont) M&M business in an
all debt financed transaction in 2022. Sales are around $10-13
billion depending on commodity prices. Celanese US Holdings LLC is
the main issuer of corporate debt and is a co-borrower under the
credit facilities.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Chemicals
published in October 2023.

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.

COGECO COMMUNICATIONS: Moody's Alters Outlook on B1 CFR to Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings affirmed Cogeco Communications (USA) Inc.'s (Cogeco
or the Company) B1 Corporate Family Rating and B1-PD Probability of
Default Rating. Moody's also affirmed the B1 senior secured bank
credit facilities ratings at Cogeco Communications Finance (USA),
LP, Cogeco US Finance, LLC, and Cogeco Financing 2, LP. The outlook
for all issuers were changed to stable from negative.

The actions reflect governance considerations as Cogeco has
demonstrated financial policies that prioritize debt repayment
given the highly competitive operating environment. The change in
outlook to stable underscores the improved credit profile as
Moody's adjusted leverage declined to 4.1x as of August 31, 2025
from 4.4x the prior year. The leverage reduction is a result of
$165 million of debt repayment (105% of free cash flow) in fiscal
2025 and stabilization in EBITDA from cost cutting actions.

Moody's expects Cogeco to continue to de-lever in fiscal 2026 as
new sales tactics leading to a decelerating decline in data
subscribers and continued cost cutting measures will support $160
million of free cash flow that will be used to repay debt.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Cogeco's B1 credit rating is constrained by the intensifying
competitive environment which has resulted in sustained customer
churn and limited pricing power. Revenue declined 5.9% in fiscal
2025 driven by subscriber losses across all three segments,
including residential data which comprises a majority of the
business. The rating is also limited by relatively small scale
(with revenue of $1 billion) and significant capital intensity
required to keep its network competitive. Secular declines in video
and voice remain a drag on the business.

Despite the challenges, the credit is supported by Cogeco's revenue
visibility and financial flexibility. The subscription-based
business model is very predictable, generating recurring revenue
from a diversified customer base across 13 markets. Financial
flexibility is driven by the highly profitable high-speed data
(HSD) segment which continues to be a growing mix of the business
as video and voice face double-digit declines. This, coupled with
cost cutting measures implemented by the company as part of their
transformation plan, has resulted in high and expanding EBITDA
margins in the high-40% range. These factors contribute to strong
free cash flow generation that provides management the ability to
de-lever via debt reduction. Cogeco's credit profile is also
supported by a relatively conservative financial policy at the
parent company, which targets net leverage of 3.0x (Company
reported basis). More aggressive actions from competitors or
execution misses in the transformation plan that reduce the
company's financial flexibility would result in downward pressure
on the ratings.

Cogeco has good liquidity with positive internal sources of cash
over the next four quarters. The company's $250 million senior
secured revolving credit facility (issued by Cogeco US Finance,
LLC) is undrawn and alternate sources of liquidity are limited with
a fully secured capital structure. The company's debt obligations
are however, covenant-lite - subject to only a springing
maintenance test when more than 30% of the facility is drawn, with
significant headroom projected.

The instrument ratings reflect the probability of default of the
Company, as reflected in the B1-PD Probability of Default Rating,
an average expected family recovery rate of 50% at default given
the covenant-lite nature of the secured debt (e.g. only springing
maintenance covenant), and the particular instruments' ranking in
the capital structure. The senior secured bank credit facilities
are rated B1, the same as the CFR, with no significant junior debt
to provide lift.

The stable outlook incorporates Moody's views that management's
transformation plan focused on cost cutting measures and revenue
retention will result in $470 million of EBITDA (Moody's adjusted
and forecasted) and $160 million of free cash flow (Moody's
adjusted and forecasted). Moody's expects free cash flow will be
used to repay outstanding debt, resulting in Moody's adjusted
leverage of 3.8x at the end of fiscal 2026. The stable outlook also
incorporates Moody's views that the company will continue to make
necessary capital investments to upgrade and expand its network.
Key assumptions are: 1) broadband subscribers falling by low-single
digit percent, 2) video subscribers losses of low double-digit
percent and 3) approximately flat ARPU.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

Moody's could consider a positive rating action if leverage
(Moody's adjusted gross debt-to-EBITDA) is sustained below 3.0x,
and retained cash flow to net debt (Moody's adjusted) is sustained
above 20% percent. A positive rating action could also be
conditional with growth in the scale and or diversity of the
business, and strong sustained subscriber growth in HSD driving
revenue and earnings growth.

Moody's could consider a negative rating action if leverage
(Moody's adjusted gross debt-to-EBITDA) is sustained above 4.0x, or
retained cash flow to net debt (Moody's adjusted) is sustained
below 15%. In addition, a negative rating action would be likely if
transformation strategies resulting in improved HSD subscriber
trends, EBITDA stabilization and margin expansion are more
prolonged or do not occur. Deterioration in liquidity, reduction in
network investments, more aggressive financial policies or
material, unfavorable and sustained changes in market position
could also result in downward pressure on the ratings.

Inc., doing business as Breezline, is a private company and
operating subsidiary of, and majority owned and controlled by,

CTF CHICAGO: Court Extends Cash Collateral Access to Jan. 10
------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois,
Eastern Division extended CTF Chicago, Inc.'s authority to use cash
collateral from November 23 to January 10, 2026.

The 14th interim order authorized the Debtor to use the cash
collateral of Wintrust Bank, a pre-bankruptcy secured lender, to
pay the expenses set forth in its budget.

The budget shows total operating disbursements of $128,336 for the
interim period.

Wintrust Bank holds a senior lien on the Debtor's assets valued at
$781,571.93, with a subordinate lien by the U.S. Small Business
Administration.

As protection, Wintrust Bank was granted a replacement lien on
substantially all of the Debtor's assets, including cash collateral
equivalents, cash and accounts receivable, with the same validity
and extent as its pre-bankruptcy lien.

In addition, Wintrust Bank was granted an administrative expense
claim under Section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, subordinate only
to the administrative claim of the Subchapter V trustee.

The next hearing is scheduled for January 7, 2026.

Wintrust Bank has a senior valid blanket lien on assets of the
Debtor as of the petition date and the cash proceeds thereof. It
holds a senior security interest in all the assets of the Debtor by
way of a valid lien duly filed of which the amount due and owing
totals no less than $781,571.93.

D RAIL TRANSPORT: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to Jan. 26, 2026
-------------------------------------------------------------------
D Rail Transport, LLC asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Middle District of Georgia to extend its exclusivity periods to
file a plan of reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to
January 26, 2026 and March 27, 2026, respectively.

The Debtor explains that its case is relatively complex because of
the number of secured creditors and volume of collateral. Debtor's
case involves 19 different secured creditors, with claims spread
across 90 different pieces of collateral. Debtor has spent a
significant portion of the first 120 days of this case
communicating and negotiating with its secured creditor body.

Additionally, since the commencement of this case, Debtor has also
been focused on other important activities, including, among other
things, (a) conducting the day-to-day operations of Debtor's
business; (b) preparing Debtor's schedules and statement of
financial affairs; (c) evaluating and prioritizing its funding
requirements; (d) testifying at the 341 meeting; and (e) preparing
monthly operating reports.

The Debtor believes its efforts will have a significant impact on
its ability to successfully reorganize. Debtor believes it has
reasonable prospects for filing a viable plan. However, it needs
additional time to formulate and negotiate a plan and prepare the
required adequate information.

Additionally, given the current uncertainty in the over-the-road
freight market, Debtor is evaluating its current and future asset
needs, including possible liquidation of a significant portion of
its truck fleet. Such a decision to liquidate will require
significant secured creditor input. Accordingly, Debtor's request
for additional time is warranted as Debtor has proven to be an
active and effective debtor-in-possession. Debtor should be
entitled to retain control over the reorganization process.

The Debtor claims that it is generally paying its post-petition
debts, including adequate protection payments to many of its
secured creditors, as they come due and believes it will have
sufficient cash to continue paying its post-petition obligations as
they come due. Debtor is also satisfying its non-financial
obligations, by continuing to operate the business, maintaining
insurance, and continuing to maintain its assets. Debtor's
performance in this regard supports its request for extension,
further reducing potential risk to the reorganization process if
the extensions are granted.

The Debtor asserts that it does not seek the extensions to delay
the reorganization or to pressure the creditors to accede to a plan
that they might find unacceptable. To the contrary, Debtor seeks
the extensions to provide it with time to attempt to reach a
consensus on a confirmable plan of reorganization and the creation
of viable, sustainable reorganized Debtor. At this early stage, a
relatively short extension of the Exclusive Periods will not harm
or prejudice any party-in-interest.

DANIEL TRUCKING: Gets OK to Use Cash Collateral Until Feb. 6
------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel Trucking International, Inc. received third interim approval
from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of
Illinois to use the cash collateral of its secured creditors
through February 6, 2026.

The court's interim order authorized the Debtor to use cash
collateral for post-petition expenses listed in a submitted budget,
subject to a 10% variance per line item.

The Debtor's 30-day budget projects total operational expenses of
$1,103,027.

Secured creditors, Old National Bank and the U.S. Small Business
Administration, hold liens on all of the Debtor's assets, including
cash and receivables, pursuant to pre-bankruptcy UCC filings.

As adequate protection, both creditors will be granted replacement
post-petition liens on the cash collateral, with the same validity
and extent as their pre-bankruptcy liens, effective as of the
petition date.

In addition, the Debtor was ordered to keep its assets insured as
further protection to the secured creditors.

The next hearing is scheduled for February 4, 2026.

Daniel Trucking International owes approximately $1.3 million and
$1.886 million to ONB and the SBA, respectively. Both creditors

financing statements.

DAOVENQUY88 LLC: Gets Final OK to Use Cash Collateral
-----------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Texas, San
Antonio Division entered a final order authorizing DaoVenQuy88, LLC
and DaoVenQuy, LLC to use cash collateral.

The court authorized the Debtors to use cash collateral in
accordance with their budgets, allowing them to pay up to 110% of
any individual budgeted expense so long as total monthly
cash-collateral spending does not exceed 5% of the overall budget.

As adequate protection, secured creditors named in the Debtors' UCC
search will be granted replacement liens on all post-petition
assets including cash collateral, with the same validity and
priority as their pre-bankruptcy liens. The replacement liens do
not attach to Chapter 5 causes of action.

Additionally, secured creditors will retain all rights to contest
whether funds are property of the estate, and the Debtors reserve
the right to challenge asserted secured claims.

Meanwhile, ARF Financial, LLC will receive monthly adequate
protection payments of $1,500, beginning this month and will
continue until plan confirmation or dismissal or conversion of the
Debtors' Chapter 11 cases.

The order includes a carveout for court and U.S. trustee fees,
Subchapter V trustee fees, and Debtors' counsel fees, and clarifies
that professional fees under Bankruptcy Code section 327 require
separate approval.

A copy of the final order and the Debtor's budget is available at
https://shorturl.at/vs0Gh from PacerMonitor.com.

The Debtors are subject to multiple UCC-1 financing statements
filed by various alleged secured creditors claiming liens on all
assets of the businesses.

For DaoVenQuy88, three filings were identified: two by Timberland
Bank and one by Funding Metrics, LLC. For DaoVenQuy, five filings
were found: one by Timberland Bank, one by Loot Financial Services
Corp, two from unknown creditors, and another from Funding Metrics,

DAVID JAMES TRUSCOTT: Automatic Stay Lifted, Can Pursue Appeal
--------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Tyson A. Crist of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Ohio granted the motion of Debtor David James
Truscott for limited relief from the automatic stay to pursue state
court appeal.

Creditor Jonathan D. Krachenfel opposes the motion.

The Bankruptcy Court holds the automatic stay is lifted for the
limited purpose of allowing the Debtor to prosecute his appeal with
the Ohio Second District Court of Appeals and to obtain an
adjudication on the merits of the appeal concerning the judgment of
the Common Pleas Court in Krachenfels v. Truscott, Case No. 2022 CV
1408, consistent with the scope of the terms of the employment of
the Brannon Law Firm, LLC as special counsel. According to the
Bankruptcy Court, the stay is not lifted with respect to any
actions by the Objecting Creditor to collect or enforce the
judgments, nor for any other actions subsequent to obtaining an
adjudication on the merits of the appeal, such as a remand by the
Court of Appeals, a subsequent appeal from any decision by the
Court of Appeals, or anything beyond the scope of the employment of
special counsel.

DESERT CITY: Unsecureds to Get 100 Cents on Dollar in Plan
----------------------------------------------------------
Desert City Enterprises, LLC, filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Central District of California a Plan of Reorganization for
Small Business under Subchapter V dated November 28, 2025.

The Debtor is a Corporation. Since 2022, the Debtor has been a real
estate developer focused on building ultra luxury homes on
previously vacant lots of land. The principal of the Debtor is
Jesse Rhodes, who serves as its manager and is a 100% owner of the
Debtor.

The latest development project undertaken by the Debtor is
development of a single-family residence at 6 Big Sioux Road,
Rancho Mirage, CA 92270 ("Property"). The change in the Debtor's
financing structure for the Property and for upcoming projects put
the Debtor in financial hardship. Rhodes and his business have sued
each other, with the Debtor becoming both a codefendant and a
cross-complainant in the litigation between the two former business
associates. In the course of litigation, the associate recorded a
lis pendens against the Property, suddenly making the Debtor's
high-end completed project impossible to market and sell.

Seeking breathing room to reorganize its cash flow issues caused by
disruption in financing and a sudden obstruction to the marketing
and sale of the Property and the Debtor sought the protection of
the bankruptcy stay. The Debtor's main issue is the unforeseen
overlap between the completed development of the Property and the
need to immediately begin work on next projects. Successful sale of
the Property in this bankruptcy will give the Debtor the necessary
breathing room to continue with subsequent developments in Rancho
Mirage, which is the main business goal of the Debtor.

The Debtor's financial projections show that the Debtor will ha1ve
projected disposable income of $2,998,500.00. The final Plan
payment is expected to be paid on or within the 12 months following
confirmation, which is anticipated to be 12 months after the
effective date.

Non-priority unsecured creditors holding allowed claims will
receive distributions, which the proponent of this Plan, Debtor,
has valued at approximately 100 cents on the dollar but is unable
to estimate the distribution to creditors, consistent with the
liquidation analysis and projected disposable income. This Plan
also provides for the payment of administrative and priority
claims.

Class 3 consists of Non-priority unsecured creditors. This Class is
impaired.

     * Internal Revenue Service (Claim 1) in the amount of
$4,290.00;

     * Davitt Inc. dba Electrical Solutions (Claim 3) in the amount
of $15,975.86;

     * Coachella Valley Water District in the amount of $400.81;

     * Southern California Edison in the amount of $73.20; and

     * Vesta Home in the amount of $1,807.42.

The Debtor intends to sell the Property in the next 12 months and
pay all allowed claims in full, keeping Rhodes in management of the
Debtor.

DKC ENTERPRISES: Final Cash Collateral Hearing Set for Dec. 3
-------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Columbia is set to
hold a hearing on December 3 to consider final approval of DKC
Enterprises, LLC's bid to use cash collateral.

The Debtor previously received interim approval to pay its expenses
from the cash collateral in which First Internet Bank of Indiana,
the secured lender, asserts an interest.

The interim order issued on November 17 granted First Internet Bank
of Indiana a replacement lien on post-petition assets similar to
its pre-bankruptcy collateral, and a superpriority claim under
section 507(b) to compensate for any loss in collateral value.

The interim order remains in effect until a final order is entered,
First Internet Bank of Indiana is paid in full, or an event of
default occurs.

DKC has a $2.704 million SBA-guaranteed business loan from First
Internet Bank of Indiana, secured by a first lien on its personal
property including inventory, equipment, and accounts such as
credit-card receivables. The outstanding balance on the debt
secured by cash collateral exceeds $2.6 million.

The Debtor's most recent financial statements, dated September 30
and filed with its petition, show banking assets of $66,516.47,
which fell to roughly $5,200 after pre-bankruptcy payroll. As of
the same date, the Debtor held only $2,185.25 in receivables.
Although the Debtor owns certain physical assets, their fair market
value is limited to salvage value, and under no scenario does the
total asset value exceed the balance owed on the secured loan.

First Internet Bank of Indiana, as secured lender, is represented

DOMAN BUILDING: Fitch Hikes Rating on Sr. Unsecured Notes to 'BB-'
------------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has upgraded Doman Building Materials Group Ltd.'s
senior unsecured notes, including the proposed CAD170 million
add-on to the existing CAD365 million notes due 2029, to 'BB-' with
a Recovery Rating of 'RR3' from 'B+'/'RR4'.

The upgrade reflects improved recovery coverage due to a
meaningfully lower amount of unsecured notes in the capital
structure. Doman expects to use proceeds from the add-on, plus
CAD105 million under the ABL facility, to redeem its CAD272 million
senior unsecured notes due May 2026.

If Doman upsizes the add-on to CAD187 million or higher (instead of
CAD170 million), Fitch would likely downgrade the 2029 unsecured
notes (including the add-on) back to 'B+'/'RR4'.

Doman's 'B+' IDR reflects modest leverage and low but relatively
stable margins, good financial flexibility, exposure to residential
housing cyclicality and lumber price volatility, and the company's
scale and leading North American position in pressure-treated
lumber manufacturing and distribution.

Key Rating Drivers

Moderate Leverage: Fitch expects EBITDA leverage to be in the
4.0x-4.3x range at YE 2025 and decline to 3.5x-4.0x by YE 2026,
compared with about 4.8x on a pro forma basis following the
acquisition of CM Tucker Lumber Companies, LLC (CM Tucker) in
October 2024. The leverage improvement is driven by Fitch's
expectation of modest margin improvement and lower debt levels.
Doman maintains modest headroom relative to the negative rating
sensitivity of EBITDA leverage remaining above 4.5x for the 'B+'
IDR.

Financial Flexibility: The company currently has strong financial
flexibility, with roughly CAD392 million of unused capacity under
its CAD580 million ABL maturing in 2028. Pro forma for the planned
refinancing of its CAD272 million senior unsecured notes with
CAD170 million add-on to its existing 2029 unsecured notes and
CAD105 million of borrowings under the ABL, unused capacity under
the ABL facility will be about CAD287 million. The proposed
transaction alleviates the refinancing risk associated with the May
2026 notes maturity.

Fitch expects FCF margins (post-dividends) of 1%-2% over the next
few years. FCF was more volatile before the acquisition of Hixson
in 2021, when Doman was smaller and prioritized dividends. Capital
intensity is low at about 0.5%-0.7% of revenue, and Fitch's ratings
case assumes around CAD50 million in annual dividends.

Susceptibility to Lumber Price Volatility: Doman's revenues are
highly concentrated in lumber, which weighs on the rating, given
the commoditized nature and pricing volatility of lumber. Revenues
fell 18% in 2023 primarily due to lower lumber prices. Lumber
pricing has remained volatile this year. Fitch's rating case
forecast assumes relatively stable lumber prices in the next few
years.

Low but Relatively Stable EBITDA Margins: Doman's profitability
metrics are weak relative to similar- and higher-rated peers but
are commensurate with its 'B' category IDR. The Fitch-adjusted
EBITDA margin (treating capitalized lease costs as operating
expenses) was 6.2% in 2024 compared with 6.8% in 2023. Fitch
expects EBITDA margin to settle between 6.5% and 7.0% in 2025 and
2026 as the company integrates the CM Tucker acquisition.

Capital Allocation: Doman has demonstrated disciplined capital
allocation, meaningfully reducing debt and leverage following
sizable acquisitions such as Hixson in 2021 and CM Tucker in 2024.
Fitch's rating case forecast assumes a further reduction of its ABL
balance, consistent with management's strategy to maintain a
flexible balance sheet and conservative credit metrics. The
forecast also expects higher ABL usage in the near term to help
refinance the 2026 notes, which is viewed as credit neutral. Doman
has shown willingness to protect credit metrics through
opportunistic equity issuance and dividend reductions during
periods of uncertainty.

Competitive Position: Doman's competitive position trails
higher-rated manufacturers due to its two-step distribution model
in the building products supply chain, relatively lower brand
equity, and largely commoditized offerings. That said, the
company's scale, which was further enhanced by the CM Tucker
acquisition, and standing as one of North America's largest
value-added treated lumber producers provide a modest competitive
advantage versus local, niche distributors.

Cyclical End-Market Exposure: Fitch expects housing and repair and
remodel demand to remain weak during the rest of 2025 and improve
slightly in 2026. The majority of Doman's sales are directed to the
Canadian and U.S. residential construction markets. Management
estimates that about half of Doman's distribution sales are exposed
to residential new housing and the remainder to repair and remodel
demand, which is less cyclical. The company's treated lumber sales
have modest exposure to agricultural and industrial end-markets.

Peer Analysis

Doman's credit metrics are modestly stronger than its closest
Fitch-rated peers, LBM Acquisition, LLC (B/Negative) and Park River
Holdings, Inc. (B-/Stable). Fitch view's LBM's business profile as
stronger than Doman's due to LBM's significantly lower exposure to
the volatile lumber market, its greater scale, and higher EBITDA
and FCF margins. LBM's highly aggressive capital allocation
strategy weighs negatively on its credit profile compared to Doman.
Park River has a stronger margin profile and less-commoditized
product offering than Doman but maintains much higher leverage
levels.

Key Assumptions

- Revenues increase over 19%-20% in 2025 and grow 3%-4% in 2026;

- EBITDA margin of 6.5%-7% in 2025 and 2026;

- FCF margin in low-single digits in 2025 and 2026;

- EBITDA leverage of 4.0x-4.5x at YE 2025 and around 3.5x-4.0x at
YE 2026;

- (CFO-capex)/debt of 8.5%-9% in 2025 and 13%-14% in 2026.

Recovery Analysis

- The recovery analysis assumes that Doman would be considered a
going-concern rather than liquidated in a recovery scenario;

- Fitch has assumed a 10% administrative claim;

- Fitch has assumed an enterprise value (EV) multiple of 5.5x;

- Going concern EBITDA of CAD150 million.

Going Concern (GC) EBITDA Approach

Fitch's GC EBITDA estimate of CAD150 million projects a
post-restructuring sustainable cash flow, which assumes both
depletion of the current position to reflect the distress that
provoked a default, and a level of corrective action that Fitch
assumes would occur during restructuring. This is about 31% below
Fitch calculated LTM EBITDA and 30% below forecasted fiscal 2025
levels.

Fitch assumes that a default would occur from a meaningful decline
in the residential housing market combined with lumber prices
sustained at below average levels. Fitch estimates revenues of
about CAD2.67 billion (about 20% below LTM revenues) and EBITDA
margins of about 5.6% would result in the CAD150 million GC EBITDA,
which would capture the lower revenue base of the company after
emerging from the downturn in a lower lumber price environment than
2020-2022, plus a sustainable margin profile after right sizing.

Fitch applied a 5.5x EV multiple to calculate the GC EV in a
recovery scenario. The company purchased Hixson Lumber Sales in
June 2021 for 5.0x Fitch-calculated FY20 EBITDA and 10.9x FY19
EBITDA. The 5.5x GC EBITDA multiple is below the 6.0x multiple
applied in the recovery analysis of LBM Acquisition, LLC and Park
River Holdings, mainly due to Doman's relatively smaller scale,
less-diversified business, and slightly lower margins when compared
to LBM.

The ABL revolver has priority claim over the unsecured notes. Fitch
assumed that the ABL RCF is drawn at a borrowing base less than the
maximum borrowing availability of CAD580 million. Fitch assumes the
ABL revolver has CAD464 million outstanding (80% of maximum
borrowing) at the time of recovery, which accounts for potential
shrinkage in the available borrowing base during a period of
deflating lumber prices and contracting volumes that causes a
default.

The remaining claims are recovered by the unsecured debt holders,
resulting in a recovery corresponding to an 'RR3' for Doman's 2029
unsecured notes (including $170 million add-on). If the company
decides to upsize the tack-on to an amount that is CAD187 million
or higher, Fitch will likely downgrade the ratings to 'B+'/'RR4'.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Fitch's expectation that EBITDA leverage will be sustained above
4.5x;

- (CFO-capex)/debt consistently below 3%;

- EBITDA interest coverage consistently below 3.5x;

- Fitch's expectation that FCF generation (after dividends)
sustained at neutral or negative levels;

- Fitch may also downgrade the issue ratings on the 2029 senior
unsecured notes (including the proposed add-on) if the company
upsizes the add-on amount from CAD170 million to an amount that is
CAD187 million or higher.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- The company significantly lowers its proportion of sales from
lumber or reduces exposure to the cyclical new home construction
market to reduce earnings and credit metric volatility through
lumber and housing cycles;

- Fitch's expectation that EBITDA leverage will be sustained below
3.5x;

- (CFO-capex)/debt consistently above 7%;

- EBITDA margin sustained in the high-single digits;

- FCF margin consistently in the mid-single digits.

Liquidity and Debt Structure

Doman has about CAD15.3 million of cash and CAD392 million of
borrowing availability under its CAD580 million ABL revolver that
matures in April 2028. Pro forma for the proposed transaction,
unused capacity under the ABL will be about CAD287 million.

Issuer Profile

Doman Building Materials Group Ltd. manufactures and distributes
lumber and building materials across North America, operating
distribution hubs, wood-treatment plants, specialty sawmills,
planing mills, and post-peeling sites, with timber ownership and
private timberland management.

Summary of Financial Adjustments

Fitch deducts lease amortization and lease interest expense from
EBITDA. Fitch's calculation of total debt includes the unsecured
bonds, ABL borrowings outstanding and bank overdrafts.

MACROECONOMIC ASSUMPTIONS AND SECTOR FORECASTS

Fitch's latest quarterly Global Corporates Sector Forecasts Monitor
data file which aggregates key data points used in its credit
analysis. Fitch's macroeconomic forecasts, commodity price
assumptions, default rate forecasts, sector key performance
indicators and sector-level forecasts are among the data items
included.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.

DOMAN BUILDING: Moody's Alters Outlook on 'B1' CFR to Stable
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has affirmed Doman Building Materials Group Ltd.'s
(Doman) B1 corporate family rating, B1-PD probability of default
rating, and B2 senior unsecured notes ratings. Moody's also
assigned a B2 rating to the company's proposed CAD175 million
add-on to its senior unsecured notes due 2029. At the same time,
Moody's revised the outlook to stable from negative. The
speculative grade liquidity rating (SGL) was upgraded to SGL-3 from
SGL-4.

The proceeds of the proposed CAD175 million add-on to the senior
unsecured notes along with about CAD100 million drawings on the ABL
facility (CAD292 million available as of Sept 2025) will be used to
redeem the outstanding CAD272 million senior unsecured notes due
May 2026. The transaction reduces the company's refinancing risk
and improves the company's debt maturity profile. However, Moody's
anticipates ABL facility utilization to stay elevated as the
additional CAD100 million borrowing introduces incremental
liquidity pressure. Even as Moody's expects the company to use free
cash flow to reduce ABL borrowings, liquidity will remain notably
constrained in the first half of 2026 due to seasonal working
capital needs that drive higher ABL facility usage.

The outlook change reflects Moody's views that Doman is mitigating
its refinancing risk through the proposed transaction. Moody's
expects Doman's continued strong operational performance and free
cash flow generation will support the company's deleveraging
efforts.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Doman's rating (B1 stable) benefits from: (1) strong positions in
the Canadian building materials distribution and North American
pressure treated lumber markets; (2) good geographical
diversification with some vertical integration; (3) good repair,
renovation and remodeling market fundamentals with decent long-term
growth prospect; (4) Moody's expectations that financial leverage
will decline but remain around 4x over the next 12-18 months.

The rating is constrained by: (1) concentration in the North
American renovation, repair and remodel end market (primarily
decking and fencing); (2) exposure to sudden and sharp drops in
wood products prices that negatively impact its building materials
distribution business segment; (3) expected weaker demand as the
rate of new housing starts decline in both the US and Canada; (4)
potential integration and financial challenges as the company
pursues growth through acquisition; and (5) track record of reduced
liquidity as large acquisitions are funded through the revolving
credit facility.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations that Doman's
financial leverage will remain around 4x in 2025 and 2026 and that
the company will generate good positive free cash flow which will
likely be used to reduce borrowings under its ABL facility.

Doman has adequate liquidity (SGL-3) with about CAD350 million of
liquidity sources and no uses, pro forma for the 2026 notes
repayment. As of September 2025, sources of liquidity consist of
CAD15 million of cash, CAD292 million of availability under its
CAD580 million ABL revolving credit facility maturing in April 2028
(proforma for the CAD100 million used to repay the senior unsecured
notes due May 2026), and Moody's expectations of positive free cash
flow of about CAD50 million over the next four quarters. Doman's
covenants for the revolver require the company to maintain a
minimum EBITDA, which Moody's expects the company to comfortably
maintain.

The B2 ratings on the company's CAD365 million senior unsecured
notes due 2029 and CAD175 million senior unsecured notes add-on are
one notch below the B1 CFR, reflecting the noteholders' subordinate
position in the company's capital structure behind the secured
CAD580 million asset based revolving credit facility expiring in
2028 (unrated).

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

The ratings could be upgraded if the company's market position
grows, adjusted debt to EBITDA is sustained below 4x, retained cash
flow to net debt is sustained above 10%, liquidity improves to good
and management commits to maintaining prudent financial policy
which prioritizes maintenance of good liquidity.

The ratings could be downgraded if the company's operational
performance deteriorates significantly, leverage is sustained above
5.5x, retained cash flow to net debt is sustained below 5%, or
liquidity weakens.

Headquartered in Vancouver, Doman Building Materials Group Ltd. is
a distributor of building materials and home renovation products
and a leading producer of pressure treated wood products in North
America.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Paper and
Forest Products 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.

ENERGIZER HOLDINGS: Moody's Alters Outlook on 'B1' CFR to Negative
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings affirmed Energizer Holdings, Inc.'s (Energizer) B1
Corporate Family Rating and its B1-PD Probability of Default
Rating. Moody's also affirmed the company's instrument ratings
including the Ba1 ratings on the senior secured first lien bank
credit facility consisting of a revolving credit facility and term
loan, B2 rating on the senior unsecured notes, and B2 rating on the
backed senior unsecured notes issued by Energizer Gamma Acquisition
B.V. and guaranteed by Energizer Holdings, Inc. Energizer's SGL-1
speculative grade liquidity rating ("SGL") remains unchanged.
Moody's changed the outlook to negative from stable for both
issuers.

The change in the outlook to negative reflects Energizer's very
high leverage that Moody's expects to only decline slowly. Moody's
anticipates soft consumer demand and higher costs due to tariffs,
restructuring, and increased advertising and promotional spending
amidst a challenging macro environment will reduce earnings in
2026. Energizer's $580 – $610 million adjusted EBITDA guidance
for fiscal September 2026 is below the $624 million generated in
fiscal 2025 and reflects the operating challenges. The company's
debt balance increased in 2025 as it issued debt to fund negative
free cash flow after dividends and higher working capital
investment to fund its new 100% recyclable packaging as well as
higher inventory costs as a result of tariffs. The company also
repurchased roughly $90 million of shares, which Moody's views as
an aggressive financial policy while leverage is high and free cash
flow is negative. The company is taking steps to strengthen the
operating margin through pricing actions and cost reductions,
including extending the Project Momentum restructuring program
another year. Good execution is necessary to generate sufficient
earnings and free cash flow to reduce the high leverage.

Moody's are nevertheless affirming Energizer's ratings because
Moody's believes the company's solid market position and strategic
initiatives have good potential to produce solid free cash flow and
reduce leverage by the end of 2027. Moody's anticipates
debt-to-EBITDA will decline to roughly 5.6x in 2027 and below 5.5x
in 2028 from 7.0x for last 12 months ended September 2025. Realized
cost savings from Project Momentum, including the wind-down of
restructuring costs, low single digit sales growth, and savings
from production tax credits should improve the EBITDA margin.
Moody's also anticipates that the company will generate at least
$150 million in free cash flow after dividends in 2026 and 2027
benefiting from improvement in the earnings and lower working
capital usage. The company expects to repay around $150-$200
million of debt in 2026 including the $80 million repaid after the
end of the fiscal year ended September 2025. Energizer does not
have a formal long-term leverage target but Moody's expects the
company will maintain a financial policy that prioritizes
deleveraging from the current elevated level.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Energizer's B1 CFR reflects the company's very high leverage
following large debt funded acquisitions and earnings weakness in
recent years that has hurt the EBITDA margin. Energizer's strategy
to increase product diversity to mitigate the effects of its slow
growing and mature disposable battery business leads to periodic
acquisitions. Earnings nevertheless remain concentrated in
disposable batteries, and the company has not made any significant
acquisitions since the purchase of Spectrum Brands' global battery
and auto care businesses in January 2019. Energizer faced elevated
input costs and supply chain inefficiencies in 2021-2023. More
recently, input costs have moderated, and Project Momentum is
helping to reduce costs and improve operations. Recent tariffs and
softening consumer spending are putting pressure on the EBITDA
margin. Earnings are also muted due to ongoing restructuring costs
as Energizer works through its remaining initiatives as part of
Project Momentum. Energizer has extended Project Momentum another
year to fiscal 2026 to address recent rising costs including
tariffs. Secondary rechargeable batteries continue to take market
share from primary batteries in various device categories. These
pressures are modestly outweighed by the broader expansion of
electronic devices that benefit from key advantages found in
disposable batteries. Primary batteries, compared to secondary
batteries, offer a lower upfront cost, longer shelf life, lower
self-discharge, and the ability to provide a constant voltage
supply with no need to charge. This makes primary batteries ideal
for low-drain, long-duration applications or where portability and
upfront costs are key factors. Energizer's tariff exposure is
modest but is contributing to earnings pressure. Energizer employs
regional manufacturing, generally producing goods within the same
region where they are sold. However, a decline in overall consumer
spending or declines in the purchase of battery operated devices in
response to tariffs could reduce battery sales and earnings.

Energizer's credit profile is supported by its leading market
position in the single use and specialized battery market, its
portfolio of well-known brands in the battery and consumer car
maintenance segments, and historically good EBITDA margin.
Liquidity is very good supported by Energizer's strong operating
cash flow and ample available capacity on its $500 million revolver
that is typically lightly utilized.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

An upgrade would require consistent operational performance
including organic revenue growth and a higher EBITDA margin that
leads to sustained debt to EBITDA below 4.5x and consistently
strong free cash flow.

The ratings could be downgraded if Energizer does not stabilize
organic sales and improve the EBITDA margin. The ratings could also
be downgraded if free cash flow does not return to a comfortably
positive level or if debt-to-EBITDA is likely to remain above 5.5x.
A deterioration of liquidity, or if the company engages in
acquisitions or share repurchases before reducing leverage could
also lead to a downgrade.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Consumer
Packaged Goods published in June 2022.

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.

Energizer Holdings, Inc. manufactures and markets batteries,
lighting products, car fragrance and appearance, and engine
additives around the world. The product portfolio includes
household batteries, specialty batteries, portable lighting
equipment and various car fragrance dispensing systems. Some key
brands include Energizer, Eveready, Rayovac, STP, and ArmorAll.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Gilbert Leggett Farms, Inc. received fifth interim approval from
the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of North

The court's fifth interim order extended the Debtor's authority to

collateral, maintaining the same priority and extent as on the

HARDING BELL: Plan Exclusivity Period Extended to Feb. 12, 2026
---------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Roberta A. Colton of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle
District of Florida extended Harding Bell International, Inc.'s
exclusive periods to file a plan of reorganization and obtain

in ongoing negotiations regarding the treatment of claims and the
structure of a confirmable plan, and additional time is required to

to file a competing plan.

extension, if granted, will not prejudice the legitimate interests
of creditors and other parties in interest.

secured lenders and the UCC to the relief requested herein.

HO WAN KWOK: Weddle Law Loses Bid for Interlocutory Appeal
----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Kari A. Dooley of the United States District Court for the
District of Connecticut denied Weddle Law, PLLC's motion for leave
to appeal the partial ruling of the United States Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Connecticut on its motion to dismiss the
adversary proceeding captioned as LUC A. DESPINS, CHAPTER 11
TRUSTEE, Plaintiff, v. WEDDLE LAW, PLLC, Defendant, ADV. PRO. NO.
24-5188 (Bankr. D. Conn.).

This appeal arises out of an adversary proceeding commenced in the
United States Bankruptcy Court in the District of Connecticut by
Chapter 11 Trustee Luc. A. Despins, appointed in the Chapter 11
case of Ho Wan Kwok, against Appellant Weddle Law, PLLC.

The MTD Order adjudicated the outstanding issues raised in Weddle's
Motion to Dismiss that were not addressed by the Bankruptcy Court's
Memorandum of Decision and Order dated March 4, 2025 (the "Omnibus
MTD Order"), which resolved four common issues raised by Weddle and
dozens of other non-debtor entities similarly seeking dismissal of
the Trustee's Complaints against them. In short, the instant MTD
Order finally resolved what remained of Weddle's Motion to Dismiss
following the Omnibus MTD Order.

The Trustee has now filed hundreds of adversary proceedings seeking
to avoid transfers nominally made by entities that are or were
alter egos of, and beneficially owned by, the Debtor. All of the
Complaints in these underlying adversary proceedings allege that
the Debtor, through his alter ego shell companies, transferred
property to various third-party entities, to include, as alleged in
this case, Weddle, and that those transfers were either fraudulent
transfers or unauthorized post-petition transfers. The Trustee
seeks to claw back these transfers for the benefit of the Estate.

On February 13, 2024, the Trustee filed the instant Adversary
Proceeding, alleging that Weddle received unauthorized
post-petition transfers from the Debtor through his alter egos,
HCHK Technologies, HCHK Property, and G Club Operations.

On April 28, 2025, Weddle timely filed the instant Motion for Leave
to Appeal.

Weddle contends that an interlocutory appeal is appropriate
because:

   (1) the case presents novel, controlling issues of law regarding
the validity of Weddle's judicial and equitable estoppel defenses,
and whether the relevant alter egos are necessary parties to the
Adversary Proceeding;

   (2) that these novel issues provide a "genuine doubt" as to
whether the MTD Order applied the correct legal standards; and

   (3) a decision in Weddle's favor would terminate the Adversary
Proceeding, and permitting an interlocutory appeal would not
otherwise complicate the Debtor's broader Chapter 11 proceeding.

Weddle contends that as part of a settlement agreement in a prior
adversary proceeding, to which it was not a party, the Trustee
agreed that certain associated professional fees could be paid from
the assets of the Debtor's alter egos, including HCHK Technologies,
HCHK Property, and/or G Club Operations. According to Weddle, this
position is inconsistent with the Trustee's claim in this Adversary
Proceeding that those same alter egos' post-petition transfers of
legal fees to Weddle are voidable.

Weddle argues that the Trustee is equitably estopped from seeking
avoidance of the postpetition transfers made to Weddle through the
Debtor's alter egos, insofar as the Trustee did not include those
alter egos as debtors, include their assets as estate assets, or
seek joint administration of these entities, and that as such,
Weddle was unaware whether the legal services it was providing to
the alter egos "interfered with the bankruptcy proceeding, violated
the bankruptcy stay, or related in any way to a debtor's funds."

Weddle argues that interlocutory review is warranted on the issue
of whether the Trustee should have joined the relevant alter ego
entities to the Adversary Proceeding as "indispensable parties."

The Trustee argues that the estoppel and joinder issues raised by
Weddle are not appropriate for interlocutory appeal, and that
regardless, the Court should exercise its "unfettered discretion"
to deny interlocutory review. The Court agrees with the Trustee
that Weddle has not met the standard for interlocutory appeal.

The District Court finds Weddle fails to demonstrate that the
issues it seeks to raise on appeal involve pure, controlling
questions of law for which there are substantial grounds for a
difference of opinion.

The appeal is styled WEDDLE LAW, PLLC, Appellant, v. LUC A.
DESPINS, CHAPTER 11 TRUSTEE, Appellee, Case No. 3:25-cv-00680-KAD
(D. Conn.).

INNOVATIVE PLUMBING: Files Emergency Bid to Use Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------------------
Innovative Plumbing Concepts, LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Middle District of Alabama for authority to use cash
collateral and provide adequate protection.

The Debtor needs to use cash collateral for ordinary business
expenses and to allow banks to honor checks and transfers issued by
the Debtor. The Debtor filed its voluntary Chapter 11 petition on
November 17 and continues to operate its plumbing installation and
service business while seeking to reorganize.

The Debtor emphasizes that immediate access to cash collateral is
necessary to meet payroll, pay vendors, cover utilities and
insurance, and maintain operations, including addressing
prepetition obligations for wages, state and federal withholding
taxes, and communication services.

Innovative identifies multiple entities with recorded UCC financing
statements that may have interests in the Debtor's cash collateral,
while reserving the right to challenge the validity or extent of
these interests. As of the petition date, the Debtor had
approximately $7,800 in its bank account and approximately $103,000
in accounts receivable.

To protect secured creditors, the Debtor proposes adequate
protection in the form of replacement liens on post-petition
receivables and projected cash flow, consistent with 11 U.S.C.
Section 361(2). The Debtor further requests authorization for banks
to honor payments issued by the Debtor and pledges to provide
notice of the motion to the Bankruptcy Administrator, creditors,
and other relevant parties.

KDZ REALTY: Unsecureds to Get 100 Cents on Dollar in Plan
---------------------------------------------------------
KDZ Realty, LLC filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia a Plan of Reorganization for Small
Business dated November 26, 2025.

The Debtor is an LLC. Since May 23, 2011, the Debtor has been in
the business of leasing property to both commercial and residential
tenants.

The Plan Proponent's financial projections show that the Debtor
will have projected disposable income of $2219.77. The final Plan
payment is expected to be paid on February, 2031.

This Plan of Reorganization proposes to pay creditors of the Debtor
from cash flow and net assets.

Non-priority unsecured creditors holding allowed claims will
receive distributions, which the proponent of this Plan has valued
at approximately 100 cents on the dollar. This Plan also provides
for the payment of administrative and priority claims.

Beginning on March 1, 2026, and continuing on the first day of each
month thereafter for 60 consecutive months, the Debtor shall make
the total monthly Plan payment of: $815.44 for the 1st month of
March 1 and $1934.08 for the remaining 59 months. The Debtor shall
act as the Disbursing Agent for all distributions under this Plan.

The Debtor shall distribute the monthly Plan payment as follows:

   * Administrative Expenses

     -- The Debtor's Counsel: $177.36 for the 1st month of March 1,
$855. 95 for the remaining 29 months.

     -- Subchapter V Trustee (post-escrow balance): $54.75 for the
1st month of March 1, $333.12 for the remaining 23 months.

   * Secured Claims

     -- Citibank/Shellpoint arrears cure: $226.58 for the 1st month
of March 1 month, $537.41 for the remaining 59 months.

     -- Realty Industrial Loan Corporation arrears cure: $31.00 for
the 1st month of March 1, $73.55 for the remaining 59 months.

     -- City of Richmond secured tax claim: $46.35 for the 1st
month of March 1, $109.94 for the remaining 59 months.

   * General Unsecured Claims

     -- Class 3 unsecured creditors: $11.92 for the 1st month of
March 1per month, $47.63 for remaining 35 months.

The Plan will be funded entirely from the Debtor's monthly net
operating income, which averages $2,219.77 per month after payment
of ongoing mortgage obligations, exceeding the Plan payment of
$815.44 payment due March 1, and the $1934.08 due monthly every
month thereafter for 59 months, and providing a feasibility cushion
of approximately $1404.33 for March, 2026 and $285.69 for the
remaining 59 months.

KIDSVILLE LEARNING: Gets Final OK to Use Cash Collateral
--------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida,
Miami Division, entered a final order authorizing Kidsville
Learning Centers, Inc. to use cash collateral.

The court authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral including
cash on hand and tuition receivables to pay operating expenses in
accordance with its budget, subject to a 10% variance.

As adequate protection, secured creditor Amerant Bank, N.A. will be
granted replacement liens on post-petition cash collateral,
maintaining the same validity, extent and priority as its
pre-bankruptcy liens.

To the extent it asserts liens on the cash collateral, the Internal
Revenue Service will be granted protection under Bankruptcy Code
Sections 361 and 363.

Additionally, the Debtor must remain current on post-petition
payroll trust fund taxes as a condition of continued use of cash
collateral.

The Debtor's assets are valued at around $24,000 and are subject to
liens from secured creditors. Amerant holds a senior lien on
substantially all assets of the Debtor under a UCC-1 financing
statement originally filed in 2014 and continued in 2024. \

Additionally, the IRS filed three federal tax liens in 2025 for
unpaid payroll taxes from 2022 to 2025, with a total liability of
approximately $49,656. These IRS liens are junior to Amerant's. The
Debtor's landlord, 1435 Collins Avenue Corp., has a writ of
possession for the leased premises but no money judgment or
perfected lien, making it an unsecured creditor with a claim
of$304,602, subject to offsets.

Subchapter V of the Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D. Fla. Case No.

LUMEXA IMAGING: Moody's Puts 'B3' CFR Under Review for Upgrade
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings placed the ratings of Lumexa Imaging, Inc. (Lumexa)
on review for upgrade, including the B3 corporate family rating,
the B3-PD probability of default rating, and the B3 ratings on the
senior secured first lien revolving credit facility and senior
secured first lien term loan B. This follows Lumexa Imaging
Holdings Inc's S-1 registration statement filing on November 17,
2025 related to its proposed initial public offering (IPO) of
shares of its common stock. Previously, the outlook was stable.

Lumexa intends to utilize the net proceeds of the IPO to pay down a
portion of its existing $1.2 billion senior secured first lien term
loan B which Moody's estimates would reduce debt/EBITDA by
approximately 2.0x to approximately 5.0x. With the IPO, Lumexa is
seeking to refinance its existing capital structure with a new
$800-825 million term loan B and upsized $250 million revolving
credit facility.

Governance considerations are a key factor in the rating action and
include anticipated lower financial leverage and a more diverse
shareholder base. Moody's expects to conclude the review process
shortly after the completion of the proposed IPO.

RATINGS RATIONALE / FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR
DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

Moody's will review financial policy as a public company including
leverage expectations, potential for acquisitions, board
composition, free cash flow projections, and operating strategy.
Moody's will also assess the plans for the company's private equity
sponsor, Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe, to continue to exit its
ownership position following the IPO. Moody's views the planned IPO
and debt pay down as a credit positive as it will result in a
significant reduction in leverage and cash interest expense that
will improve free cash flow. If the transaction closes based on the
proposed terms and in alignment with current assumptions, Moody's
expects that an upgrade would be limited to one notch.

Notwithstanding the rating review, Lumexa's B3 CFR reflects its
moderate scale, high financial leverage and execution risk
associated with its debt-funded growth strategy. Further, Lumexa
has some geographic concentration with Texas, North Carolina and
New Jersey representing approximately two-thirds of revenues. Debt
to EBITDA was approximately 7.0x at September 30, 2025 and Moody's
expects leverage will decline to approximately 5.0x following the
IPO close.

The rating is supported by good business diversity as it has both
outpatient imaging and radiology physician services integrated in
many of its markets. The rating is also supported by the alignment
of management and physician incentives through a high level of
physician ownership (-31%) and highly variable physician
compensation structure.

The ratings could be upgraded if Lumexa demonstrates a track record
of positive free cash flow and sustained debt/EBITDA below 6.0x.
Improving operating performance and liquidity will also support an
upgrade. The ratings could be downgraded if the company's operating
performance deteriorates, and liquidity weakens. Quantitatively,
the ratings could be downgraded if debt/EBITDA is sustained above
7.5x.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Services published in November 2021.

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.

Headquartered in Raleigh, NC, Lumexa, is an operator of outpatient
imaging centers and a provider of radiology services in 13 states.
The company operates its business through its subsidiaries (which
are also co-borrowers) Lumexa Imaging, Inc. and Lumexa Imaging
Outpatient, Inc.


M & M BUCKLEY: Court Extends Cash Collateral Access to Dec. 18
--------------------------------------------------------------
M & M Buckley Management, Inc. received another extension from the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois to use
cash collateral.

The 11th interim order signed by Judge Janet Baer approved the use
of cash collateral through December 18 to pay the expenses set
forth in the Debtor's budget, subject to a 10% variance.

The budget projects total operational expenses of $38,502 for
November and December.

As adequate protection for the Debtor's use of its cash collateral,
Community Loan Servicing, LLC will be granted post-petition
replacement liens on the cash collateral and property acquired by
the Debtor after its Chapter 11 filing. The replacement liens will
have the same priority and extent as Community Loan Servicing's
pre-bankruptcy liens.

As additional protection, the Debtor was ordered to pay $16,500 to
Community Loan Servicing and keep its real property insured,
listing Community Loan Servicing as the lien holder.

The final hearing is scheduled for December 17.

On December 23, 2019, M & M executed a mortgage and assignment of
rents in favor of Community Loan Servicing to secure an $875,000
promissory note, granting the secured creditor a security interest
in rents from the property. Community Loan Servicing filed a
foreclosure action on February 6, 2024, and obtained a judgment of
foreclosure and sale on November 12, 2024. As of the petition date,
approximately $1.043 million was owed under the judgment.

The Debtor estimates the property's current market value to be at
least $1.2 million.

MAMMOTH INC: Gets Final OK to Use Cash Collateral
-------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Indiana
granted Mammoth, Inc. final approval to use cash collateral.

The court authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral to fund
operations in accordance with its budget. The Debtor must not
exceed the budget by a cumulative net aggregate variance of more
than 10% without consent from 3Rivers Federal Credit Union.

All revenue must be deposited into a single DIP account, and
payments from that account require 3Rivers' consent or court
approval.

As protection, replacement liens granted to all creditors with an
interest in the cash collateral, including 3Rivers and the U.S.
Small Business Administration will remain binding and fully
enforceable in all of the Debtor's post-petition assets.

Additionally, 3Rivers will receive weekly payments of $3,000 while
the SBA will receive monthly payments of $2,575.

The final order provides for a carveout, allowing payment of fees
to bankruptcy professionals but subject to budget limits and
written approval by 3Rivers. The carveout cannot be used to fund
litigation challenging 3Rivers' claims, liens, or enforcement
rights.

The deadline to challenge 3Rivers' lien validity is on December 8.
If no challenge is filed, the liens and claims become binding,
valid, and non-contestable.

Events of default under the final order include dismissal or
conversion of the Debtor's Chapter 11 case and failure to comply
with court orders, pay taxes or insurance obligations, file a
Chapter 11 plan by December 15, confirm a plan by March 16, 2026,
and close on a sale of the Debtor's intellectual property by March
31, 2026. Missing reporting obligations under the order or the
interim orders will also result in default.

A copy of the final order and the Debtor's budget is available at
https://shorturl.at/jauzm from PacerMonitor.com.

As of the petition date, the Debtor owed 3Rivers $436,302. The loan
is secured by all of the Debtor's personal property, including cash
collateral.

MIDWEST SKIING: Seeks Ch. 11 Bankruptcy to Prevent Foreclosure
--------------------------------------------------------------
Snow Industry News reports that Whitecap Mountains Resort, a
long-standing ski destination in northern Wisconsin celebrated for
its steep terrain and deep snow, has filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection. The filing is intended to stop an impending
foreclosure and provide the resort with time to stabilize
operations ahead of the 2025–2026 ski season. Midwest Skiing
Company LLC, the resort's owner, submitted the petition on November
19, 2025 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of
Wisconsin following years of financial strain and environmental
setbacks.

The resort's troubles intensified after a significant decline in
snowfall. Once known as the "snowiest ski resort in Wisconsin,"
Whitecap saw snowfall plunge from 260 inches in 2022–2023 to
under 30 inches the following winter. Revenues collapsed
accordingly—from roughly $1.4 million to $197,000 in 2023–2024.
The 2024–2025 season offered only slight improvement, generating
about $532,000, a level still far below what was needed to cover
basic operating expenses and debt obligations, according to
report.

These financial pressures triggered a default on a $1.86 million
short-term loan from Brighton Asset Management, prompting the
lender to pursue foreclosure. The Chapter 11 filing places an
automatic stay on those proceedings and allows management to
continue operating while they work on a restructuring plan. The
bankruptcy follows years of disruption for the resort, including a
2019 fire that destroyed the main lodge. Because the property's
insurance had lapsed, rebuilding costs fell entirely on the resort,
the report states.

Despite the instability, owner David Dziuban and resort leadership
say they intend to maintain normal operations. The filing includes
requests to pay employees, honor season passes, and preserve
customer agreements. Attorneys for Midwest Skiing Company
emphasized that Chapter 11 will give the resort "a path forward" to
continue operating long-term. Whitecap Mountains—which opened in
the 1960s and spans three mountains with 43 trails—remains open
for reservations, hoping for a return to the heavy snowfall that
once defined it, the report states.

                About Midwest Skiing Company LLC

Midwest Skiing Company, LLC operates the Whitecap Mountains Resort
in Upson, Wisconsin, where it manages downhill skiing,
snowboarding, lodging, and year-round recreational activities. The
Company oversees on-site facilities including food and beverage

resort property.

Midwest Skiing sought relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. W.D. Wis. Case No. 25-12543) on November
19, 2025. In its petition, the Debtor reports estimated assets and
liabilities between $1 million and $10 million each.

MOSAIC SWNG: Gets Extension to Access Cash Collateral
-----------------------------------------------------
Mosaic SWNG, LLC received eighth interim approval from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas to use its
secured lender's cash collateral.

The eighth interim order signed by Judge Christopher Lopez
authorized the Debtor to use the cash collateral of Fannie Mae to
pay the expenses set forth in its budget pending the final
hearing.

The budget shows total expenses of $49,000 for the week ending
December 4; $34,000 for the week ending December 11; $71,000 for
the week ending December 18; and $78,290 for the week ending
December 25.

The secured lender's cash collateral consists of rents and accounts
receivable generated from the Debtor's assets, including a 504-unit
multifamily residential real property located in Pasadena, Texas.

As protection, Fannie Mae was granted post-petition replacement
liens on all property of the Debtor, whether acquired before or
after the petition date.

To the extent the replacement liens are insufficient to provide
protection against the diminution in value of the lender's interest
in the collateral, Fannie Mae will be granted a superpriority
claim.

The Debtor was ordered to remit to Fannie Mae a cash payment equal
to the amount by which its remaining cash balance at the end of the
prior calendar month exceeded $80,000.

The final hearing is scheduled for January 5, 2026.

NAKED CUPCAKE: Unsecureds to Split $32,400 over 3 Years
-------------------------------------------------------
The Naked Cupcake Orlando, LLC filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Middle District of Florida a First Plan of Reorganization
dated November 28, 2025.

The Debtor is a Florida profit corporation founded in 2016 and
domiciled in Florida. It is in the business of a cupcake bakery.
The Debtor became very successful with food truck and catering
operations.

The Debtor transitioned to a brick-and-mortar storefront, which
almost immediately led to a downturn in revenue. The Debtor is now
transitioning back to food truck and catering operations.

The Plan Proponent believes it can contribute $1027.20 per month
toward Plan Payments, with roughly $127.20 per month of that paid
to the SBA (with a separate Motion to Value to be filed). The
Debtor's projected Disposable Income over the life of the Plan is
therefore $32,400.00.

This Plan provides for: 1 class of secured claims; 1 class of
unsecured claims; and 1 class of equity security holders.

Class 2 consists of the Allowed General Unsecured Claims of the
Debtor. Class 2 is Impaired.

     * Consensual Plan Treatment: The liquidation value or amount
that unsecured creditors would receive in a hypothetical chapter 7
case is approximately $0.00. Accordingly, the Debtor proposes to
pay unsecured creditors a pro rata portion of $32,400.00. Payments
will be made in equal quarterly payments of $2,700.00. Payments
shall commence on the fifteenth day of the month, on the first
month that begins after the Effective Date and shall continue
quarterly for eleven additional quarters. Pursuant to Section 1191
of the Bankruptcy Code, the value to be distributed to unsecured
creditors is equal to or greater than the Debtor's projected
disposable income to be received in the 3-year period beginning on
the date that the first payment is due under the plan. Holders of
Class 1 and Class 2 claims shall be paid directly by the Debtor.

     * Nonconsensual Plan Treatment: The liquidation value or
amount that unsecured creditors would receive in a hypothetical
chapter 7 case is approximately $0.00. Accordingly, the Debtor
proposes to pay unsecured creditors a pro rata portion of
$32,400.00. Payments will be made in equal quarterly payments of
$2,700.00. Payments shall commence on the fifteenth day of the
month, on the first month that begins after the Effective Date and
shall continue quarterly for eleven additional quarters. Pursuant
to Section 1191 of the Bankruptcy Code, the value to be distributed
to unsecured creditors is equal to or greater than the Debtor's
projected disposable income to be received in the 3-year period
beginning on the date that the first payment is due under the plan.
Holders of Class 1 and Class 2 claims shall be paid directly by the
Debtor.

Class 3 consists of any and all equity interests and warrants
currently issued or authorized in the Debtor. This Class is
Unimpaired. Holders of a Class 3 interests shall retain their full
equity interest in the same amounts, percentages, manner and
structure as existed on the Petition Date.

The Plan contemplates that the Reorganized Debtor will continue to
operate the Debtor's business.

Except as explicitly set forth in this Plan, all cash in excess of
operating expenses generated from operation until the Effective
Date will be used for Plan Payments or Plan implementation, cash on
hand as of Confirmation shall be available for Administrative
Expenses.

28, 2025 is available at https://urlcurt.com/u?l=eWmTWS from

NEAREST GREEN DISTILLERY: Wants Emergency Trade Secrets Hearing
---------------------------------------------------------------
Orizo Hajigurban of Lexington Herald Leader reports that Fawn
Weaver, founder of Uncle Nearest whiskey and Nearest Green
Distillery, and her husband Keith Weaver are seeking an urgent
federal court hearing to prevent potential competitors from
acquiring their business. New counsel filed an emergency motion on
November 24 asking the court to lift a stay under the receiver’s
control, allowing the Weavers to file counterclaims against lender
Farm Credit. The court has set a December 2 deadline for
responses.

The distillery has been in receivership since September 2025 after
Farm Credit alleged the Weavers defaulted on more than $108 million
in loans. The Weavers contend they were "blindsided" by the
lender's request and now dispute both the scope of the receivership
and the loan amounts, seeking permission to relitigate the matter.
They argue there has been no formal adjudication regarding the
validity or reduction of the Farm Credit debt, the report states.

The Weavers want to prevent the receiver from granting third
parties access to proprietary business information while they
pursue new motions. The filing claims that the receiver is moving
toward a permanent disposition of assets, which could include
selling the Tennessee distillery, whiskey barrels, or other company
property, potentially at a depressed market value, Lexington Herald
Leader.

According to the filing, several competitors are already seeking
access to confidential trade secrets. The Weavers stress that while
any valid claims from Farm Credit will be satisfied, a forced sale
under the receivership could significantly reduce shareholder
value. Uncle Nearest, reportedly valued at $1 billion, counts Fawn
Weaver's entity as its largest shareholder, alongside undisclosed
outside investors.

              About Nearest Green Distillery

Nearest Green Distillery, also known as Uncle Nearest Distillery,
is a Shelby, Tennessee-based distillery.

A Tennessee federal judge on August 14, 2025, granted Farm Credit
Mid-America's motion to place Nearest Green Distillery and its
related companies under receivership after alleged loan defaults of
more than $108 million. The lender accused the distillery of
overstating its barrel inventory, which served as collateral, and
violating key financial covenants. The court appointed Phillip G.
Young Jr. to oversee operations and protect the company's assets
amid the dispute.


NEED SPACE: Seeks Cash Collateral Access
----------------------------------------
Need Space Tabb, LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of Tennessee, Western Division, for authority to use cash
collateral and provide adequate protection to secured creditors,
primarily Arvest Bank.

The Debtor filed for Chapter 11 on October 5, continues to operate
its self-storage business in Tennessee as a debtor-in-possession,
and emphasizes that access to cash collateral is essential to meet
operational expenses, including employee wages, utilities, rent,
inventory, insurance, and necessary maintenance, without which the
business would suffer immediate and irreparable harm.

The Debtor identifies approximately $4,000 in cash that may
constitute cash collateral and notes that Arvest Bank holds a
secured claim of roughly $4.1 million, with security interests in
substantially all of the Debtor's assets. No other creditors are
believed to have perfected security interests in the cash
collateral. The Debtor proposes to use cash collateral in the
ordinary course of business for a 30-day period following the final
order and will not use it for pre-petition claims or capital
expenditures exceeding $1,000 without consent or further court
order.

To protect Arvest's interests, the Debtor proposes adequate
protection measures under Section 361, including periodic cash
payments equal to any diminution in the value of Arvest's interest,
replacement liens on post-petition assets, and, if necessary, an
administrative expense claim under 11 U.S.C. Sections 503(b) and
507(b). Reporting and accountability measures are also outlined,
including weekly cash flow reports, monthly operating reports,
detailed accounting of cash collateral usage, inspection rights for
Arvest, and provision of additional financial information upon
request.

Finally, the Debtor sets forth default and cure provisions,
defining events of default such as unauthorized use of cash
collateral, case conversion or dismissal, or failure to provide
adequate protection. Upon notice of default, the Debtor has 10 days
to cure; failure to do so terminates authority to use cash
collateral, allowing Arvest to seek emergency relief from the
Court. The Debtor asserts that these provisions balance the
protection of Arvest's interests with a reasonable opportunity for
the Debtor to address defaults.

Arvest Bank is represented by:

NEXTTRIP INC: Raises $1 Million via Stock and Warrant Sale
----------------------------------------------------------
NextTrip, Inc. said in an SEC filing it raised $1 million by
selling 333,334 restricted shares of its common stock and warrants
for 166,667 shares of common stock to Charcoal Investments Ltd.,
with the warrants exercisable at $3 per share over three years,
including a cashless exercise option.

The Purchase Agreement included customary representations,
warranties, indemnification rights, and other provisions that
governed the parties' obligations in connection with the
transaction.

The Company plans to use the net proceeds from the sale of the
shares and warrants for working capital and general corporate
purposes.

                           About NextTrip

NextTrip, Inc. is a technology-driven travel company developing an
integrated travel booking and media platform connecting leisure,
group, and business travelers to global destinations.  Its
proprietary NXT2.0 booking engine supports personalized trip
planning and booking, while the Company markets travel services
through brands including NextTrip Vacations, Five Star Alliance,
and NextTrip Business, offering features for groups, travel agents,
and delayed payment options.  Complementing its booking platform,
NextTrip operates media properties such as Journy.tv and Travel
Magazine, which provide travel content intended to drive traffic
and enhance consumer engagement with its travel services.

In its audit report dated May 29, 2025, Haynie & Company issued a
"going concern" qualification citing that the Company has suffered
recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit of
$34,349,823.  The losses in conjunction with uncertainty around the
success of management's future plans, raise substantial doubt about
its ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company had $13.91 million in total assets, $7.93 million in
total liabilities, $387,000 in mezzanine equity, and $5.59 million
in total stockholders' equity as of Aug. 31, 2025.

As of Aug. 31, 2025, the Company had $1,837,654 in cash and a
working capital deficit of $1,477,647, as compared to $1,062,367 in
cash and a working capital deficit of $105,577 as of Feb. 28, 2025.
Additionally, at Aug. 31, 2025, the amount due under its related
party line of credit totaled $2,831,575.

Given the lack of significant revenue since inception, NextTrip has
financed its operations primarily through the issuance of
short-term promissory notes, advances from related parties, and
private placements of its securities.

The Company expects to continue to incur net losses and negative
cash flows from operations for the foreseeable future as it invests
in technology enhancements, supplier relationships, and marketing
initiatives.  

NextTrip mentioned in its Quarterly Report for the period ended
Aug. 31, 2025, that it cannot guarantee the amount, availability,
or terms of any future financing.  Equity financing could
significantly dilute existing stockholders or come with burdensome
conditions, while debt financing could impose covenants and
repayment requirements that may be difficult to meet and could
strain business operations.  The Company also noted that it
currently has no arrangement or understanding for additional
financing, and if funds are unavailable, it may need to delay,
scale back, or cease certain operations and could risk losing its
Nasdaq listing.


NGL ENERGY: Fitch Affirms 'B' LongTerm IDR, Outlook Stable
----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed NGL Energy Partners LP's (NGL) and NGL
Energy Operating LLC's (Operating) Long-Term Issuer Default Ratings
(IDR) at 'B'. The Rating Outlook is Stable. Additionally, Fitch has
affirmed the 'BB-' rating with a Recovery Rating of 'RR2' for the
Operating's senior secured term loan B and the 'BB'/'RR1' rating
for the senior secured ABL facility. Fitch has also affirmed the
'BB-'/'RR2' rating for the senior secured notes co-issued by
Operating and NGL Energy Finance Corp.

The ratings reflect NGL's (B/Stable) growing Water Solutions
business, increasing focus on stabling cash flow, and
diversification across geographies and business lines. These
strengths are offset by a complex capital structure, limited
financial flexibility, and exposure to commodity price volatility.

Key Rating Drivers

Water Strength Stabilizes Cash Flow: As of 2Q26, NGL's Water
Solutions segment has grown at a compound annual rate of about 8%
over the past three years, more than offsetting the EBITDA lost
from close to $500 of asset sales during this period. Beyond
supportive commodity prices and its large Permian footprint, growth
has been driven by minimum-volume-commitment (MVC) backed projects
and a stronger counterparty credit profile. With its large-diameter
infrastructure largely built out, higher volumes have lifted
pipeline utilization and operating margins.

Despite softer crude prices, Fitch expects NGL's cash flow to
remain relatively resilient. Customers in this segment are
predominantly investment-grade and supermajors, which typically
maintain stable production through commodity cycles. Resilience is
further underpinned by larger acreage dedication and a rising share
of take-or-pay contracts, with average remaining term of around
nine years.

Capital Structure Limits Financial Flexibility: NGL's sizeable
interest burden constrains financial flexibility, limiting capacity
to fund growth projects and slowing debt reduction. The capital
structure includes several tranches of senior secured debt and
three classes of high-coupon preferred units. Fitch expects FFO
interest coverage, including preferred dividends, to be around 1.8x
in FY 2026, improving modestly over 2.0x thereafter. While Fitch
anticipates growth projects to be funded with FCF, meaningful
positive FCF is unlikely in years of elevated capex.

The liquids asset sale, while significantly reducing working
capital needs, also lowers the borrowing base of the revolving
credit facility. To simplify the structure and reduce the burden,
NGL began redeeming its Class D preferred units this year. Fitch
views this as credit supportive because it lowers preferred
dividends and eases the FY 2028 liquidity overhang when the put
option becomes exercisable. However, pace of redemption depends on
capital allocation priorities, given limited flexibility and a
sizable redemption premium.

Financial Discipline Critical for Deleveraging: Fitch-calculated
leverage, which includes 50% of Class B and C preferred units and
all of Class D, is projected to decline to about 5.8x in FY 2026
from roughly 6.0x, driven mainly by EBITDA growth and Class D
redemptions. While leverage remains elevated, NGL has executed
modest share and warrant repurchases. The transactions are small
and do not materially affect credit metrics, but they signal an
effort to balance shareholder considerations with deleveraging
objectives. Fitch believes sustained emphasis on debt reduction
will remain important given the current financial profile.

Scale and Diversity: NGL generates over $600 million of EBITDA,
making it larger than many single 'B' Fitch-rated midstream issuers
and active across multiple basins. Fitch views this scale and
diversification across geographies and business lines as credit
positive, helping mitigate cash flow volatility versus single-basin
peers focused on gathering and processing. The company's size also
provides optionality to monetize non-core assets to fund growth or
reduce debt. However, following significant divestitures over the
past three years, NGL's diversification benefits is diminishing,
tempering these benefits.

Commodity Price Exposure: Fitch expects margins to soften in
segments with direct commodity exposure as crude prices decline.
Roughly 25% of NGL's net revenue is subject to price volatility
through skim-oil sales and crude/liquids marketing, a share that
has fallen as the company adds fixed-fee revenues and divests crude
and liquids assets. As of 2Q26, skim oil was about 13% of LTM water
revenue, with the remaining exposure coming from marketing
activities that depend on location and time spreads. NGL does not
maintain a consistent hedging program for skim oil and uses either
short-term hedging or back-to-back contracts to mitigate residual
price risk.

Volumetric Risks: NGL's businesses, largely tied to the crude oil
production, face volumetric risk, especially in a prolonged
commodity down cycle. Absent MVC protection, water volumes are
sensitive to producers' drilling activity, and reduced activity on
dedicated acreage can lower system throughput. Customers' choices
between recycling and disposal can add to short-term volume
volatility. The risk is partially mitigated by NGL's growth in
long-dated volume assurance contracts and dedicated acreages in
high production counties.

Peer Analysis

WBI Operating LLC (BB-/Stable) is a midstream water services
provider in the Delaware, Eagle Ford, and Arkoma basins. With
expected EBITDA of over $300 million, it is smaller and less
geographically and operationally diversified than NGL. WBI faces
higher volumetric risk due to the absence of significant MVCs,
whereas over 33% of NGL's EBITDA, an increasing share, is backed by
MVCs. NGL, however, has greater commodity price exposure and a
history of acquisitions funded with debt and preferreds, pressuring
its balance sheet.

Fitch expects WBI's leverage to remain below 4.0x, roughly 2.0x
lower than NGL's forecast leverage by FYE 2026. NGL's liquidity is
also weaker given sizable cash interest and preferred dividends.
Consequently, NGL is rated two notches below WBI, as its modestly
lower business risk is outweighed by higher financial risk.

Recovery Analysis

The recovery analysis assumes that NGL would be considered a
going-concern in bankruptcy and that the partnership would be
reorganized rather than liquidated. Fitch has assumed a 10%
administrative claim (standard). The going-concern EBITDA estimate
of approximately $500 million represents approximately a 20%
discount to FY 2025 EBITDA. It reflects Fitch's view of a mid-cycle
estimate of a sustainable EBITDA level post-default and bankruptcy
emergence.

This level assumes an EBITDA run rate of approximately $500
million, slightly higher than the post-pandemic EBITDA when the
last significant oil price decline happened, reflecting the
increasing contribution from fee-based revenues since then.

Fitch used a 6x EBITDA multiple to arrive at NGL's going-concern
enterprise value. The multiple reflects the recent reorganization
multiples of 6x in the energy sector.

There have been a limited number of bankruptcies and
reorganizations within the midstream space, but in the limited
sample, such as the bankruptcies of Azure Midstream and Southcross
Holdco, the reorganization multiples were between 5x and 7x by
Fitch's best estimates. In Fitch's recent bankruptcy case study
report Energy, Power and Commodities Bankruptcies Enterprise Value
and Creditor Recoveries, published in September 2023, the median
enterprise valuation exit multiplies for 51 energy cases, for which
this was available, was 5.3x, with a wide range of multiples
observed.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- EBITDA leverage is expected to sustain above 6.5x;

- FFO interest coverage is expected to sustain below 1.5x;

- Inability to proactively improve liquidity profile;

- Change in financial policy, such as shareholder payout or
leveraging acquisitions, which results in negative free cash flows
and weakens liquidity.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- EBITDA leverage sustained below 5.5x after full redemption of
Class D preferred units.

Liquidity and Debt Structure

As of Sept. 30, 2025, NGL had about $283.7 million of liquidity,
consisting of $8.7 million in cash and about $275 million of
available capacity under its ABL Facility (ABL). Availability is
determined by the lower of the 399.6 million borrowing base and the
$475 million total commitment. The ABL includes a $200 million
sub-limit for letter of credit. On that date, $71 million was drawn
under the ABL and $53.6 million letters of credit were
outstanding.

The ABL includes a financial covenant requiring a fixed-charge
coverage ratio of at least 1.0x upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of a Cash Dominion Event. The term loan agreement
requires a debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.1x as of the
last day of each testing period. Fitch expects NGL to remain in
compliance with these covenants over the forecast horizon.

NGL's cash needs are elevated, driven by high interest expense,
preferred dividends, and the voluntary Class D redemption,
including a sizable premium. However, recent divestitures of
non-core assets in the Liquids Logistics segment have reduced
working capital requirements tied to seasonal inventory builds.

The partnership's next maturity is its ABL facility, due Feb. 2,
2029, with a springing maturity that could accelerate the due date
to Nov. 16, 2028, tied to the 2029 secured notes maturity. In the
medium term, liquidity could be pressured by the put option
embedded in the Series D preferred units around Dec. 29, 2027.

Issuer Profile

NGL Energy Partners LP (NGL) is a publicly traded MLP headquartered
in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The partnership provides services in produced
water disposal, crude oil storage and transportation, as well as
marketing of crude oil, natural gas liquids and refined products.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.

OLD FASHION: Seeks to Use Cash Collateral
------------------------------------------
Old Fashioned Butcher Shop Inc. and affiliates ask the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York for authority
to use cash collateral and provide adequate protection.

The Debtors seek, among other things, adequate protection for
secured creditors including Key Bank, Key Equipment Finance, the
SBA, TD Bank, and Advance Service Group in connection with the use
of cash collateral. The Debtors filed their Subchapter V Chapter 11
petitions on November 10, 2025 (OFBS and Star Natural 1) and
November 19, 2025 (Star Natural LLC). OFBS operates a traditional
butcher shop, while Star Natural 1 runs a meat processing business,
both serving the Greek community in Astoria, Queens.

The Debtors maintain secured obligations to Key Bank, Key
Equipment, and the SBA, with total asserted debts of at least
$250,000 to Key Bank, $250,000 to Key Equipment, and $300,000 to
the SBA. Star Natural 1 also has liens asserted by TD Bank, the
SBA, and a post-petition merchant cash advance by Advance, which
the Debtors intend to challenge.

The Debtors require access to cash collateral to pay ordinary and
necessary operating expenses, including payroll, utilities, vendor
obligations, and insurance, which are essential to maintain
operations and preserve the value of their estates.

To provide adequate protection to the secured parties, the Debtors
propose: (i) interest-only payments on prepetition obligations,
(ii) replacement liens on all assets of the Debtors (subject to
challenge in the case of Advance), and (iii) superpriority
administrative claims for the extent of any diminution in value of
collateral resulting from cash collateral use.

The Debtors emphasize that without immediate access to cash
collateral, they would suffer irreparable harm, including
disruption of operations, loss of revenue, and inability to pay
employees, threatening the reorganization process and reducing
estate value.

A court heariug is set for January 16, 2026.

A copy of the motion is available at https://urlcurt.com/u?l=lZpyyo

PH BEAUTY III: Moody's Affirms B3 CFR & Alters Outlook to Negative
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has affirmed pH Beauty Holdings III, Inc.'s (pH
Beauty) B3 Corporate Family Rating, B3-PD Probability of Default
Rating and the B3 ratings on its senior secured first lien bank
credit facilities. The senior secured facilities include a $15
million revolver maturing in June 2027 and a $422 million term loan
due in September 2027. Moody's also changed the rating outlook to
negative from stable.

On November 19, 2025, pH Beauty completed the sale of its BYOMA
skincare segment. The company expects to apply approximately $450
million in net proceeds to first prepay a portion of the first lien
term loan and the outstanding $10.5 million revolver balance, with
an additional prepayment of the term loan anticipated in the coming
weeks. In total, about $294 million of the first lien term loan
will be repaid, along with funding a $170 million shareholder
dividend and covering related fees and expenses.  Following these
actions, the remaining first lien term loan debt is expected to be
$120 million.

The change in outlook to negative reflects heightened execution
risk in turning around the remaining portfolio, which is
concentrated in underperforming categories such as cosmetic
accessories, bath accessories, and sunless tanning. These segments
are highly exposed to discretionary spending and face ongoing
headwinds including cautious consumer spending and higher costs due
to tariffs, making the company's ability to achieve revenue and
earnings growth in 2026 uncertain. In addition, refinancing risk is
elevated given the full debt maturity in 2027 and uncertainty
surrounding the turnaround story. The limited visibility into the
sustainable earnings level of the retained business portfolio
creates uncertainty about the ability to generate positive free
cash flow. BYOMA was a key earnings and cash flow driver, and the
sale meaningfully reduces pH Beauty's revenue base, product
diversification, and growth potential.

The affirmation of the ratings considers the reduction in debt
resulting from the asset sale will meaningfully lower cash interest
expense, as well as the improvement in liquidity because of the
revolver repayment. Moody's assumes in the ratings that
debt-to-EBITDA leverage will decline below 4x and the company will
generate $5-10 million of free cash flow in 2026 but the limited
earnings visibility creates uncertainty around this forecast.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The B3 CFR reflects pH Beauty's small revenue base, concentration
in mature commodity-oriented products with limited growth
prospects, exposure to discretionary consumer spending, supply
chain risks and aggressive financial policies. The November 2025
divestiture of the BYOMA skincare brand removes the company's
primary growth driver and leaves a portfolio focused on more
discretionary and underperforming categories such as cosmetic
accessories, bath accessories, and sunless tanning, which are
vulnerable to shifts in consumer spending and competitive
pressures. Strategic uncertainty has increased following this
transaction, as the company's diminished revenue base and execution
risk around turning the remaining brands into a sustainable growth
platform are significant. Limited visibility into the sustainable
earnings of the remaining portfolio offset benefits such as strong
brand name recognition in niche markets and some diversification
across beauty tools such as makeup brushes, sunless tanning
products and bath accessories.

Financial policies remain aggressive under private equity
ownership, evidenced by two large shareholder distributions in 2025
including a $170 million dividend funded from the BYOMA sale
proceeds. Moody's anticipates debt-to-EBITDA leverage will decline
below 4x in 2026. Lower annual interest costs in the range of
$10-12 million and limited capital spending because of outsourced
production create only a modest EBITDA need to generate positive
free cash flow depending on the level of working capital
investment. Refinancing risk persists given the maturity of the $15
million revolver in June 2027 and remaining term loan in September
2027. The company continues to source most products
internationally, with a heavy reliance on China. Sourcing
diversification efforts are underway, but any material changes in
tariffs or supply chain disruptions could pressure margins.

Governance considerations were a key driver of the rating action.
pH Beauty's financial policies remain aggressive under private
equity ownership, as evidenced by two large shareholder
distributions in 2025, including one funded from asset sale
proceeds. These actions, combined with strategic uncertainty
following the divestiture of BYOMA and the company's concentrated
business profile, increase event risk and weigh on the credit
quality despite the debt reduction.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

The negative outlook reflects Moody's views that execution risk in
turning around the remaining portfolio is high, growth prospects
are weak and limited visibility into the earnings of the retained
visibility creates uncertainty that the company can generate
sustained positive free cash flow. Liquidity will weaken if the
company does not proactively address the elevated refinancing risk
related to the maturity of the entire debt structure in 2027.

The ratings could be upgraded if the company demonstrates sustained
revenue and earnings growth, mitigates tariff related risk, and
generates sustained and comfortably The company would also need to
sustain debt-to-EBITDA leverage below 3.0x  and maintain good
liquidity including proactively addressing its 2027 maturities at a
manageable cash interest cost to be considered for an upgrade.

The ratings could be downgraded if operating earnings do not
improve due to factors such as distribution losses at customers,
declining volumes, or higher costs. Weak negative free cash flow or
a deterioration in liquidity could also lead to a downgrade.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Consumer
Packaged Goods published in June 2022.

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.

pH Beauty, headquartered in New York, NY is a beauty platform
specializing in makeup tools, bath and hair accessories, and
sunless tanning products. Its portfolio includes brands such as
Real Techniques, EcoTools, Isle of Paradise, Tanologist, Tan-Luxe
and Freeman Beauty, that have modest market share positions in
their categories, supported by consumer loyalty and accessibility.
The company benefits from recurring revenue through consumable
products with high velocity and regular repeat purchases. FBB
maintains an omni-channel presence across mass and masstige
retailers (Ulta, Sephora) as well as online platforms, and
generates approximately 26% of net revenue outside the United
States. The company operates an asset-light with production
outsourced. pH Beauty expects to generate $209 million in net
revenue in 2025 post the sale of its skincare brand BYOMA.

PRINCE LAND: Unsecureds to Get $2,500 per Month for 5 Years
-----------------------------------------------------------
Prince Land, Inc., filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Florida a Disclosure Statement describing
Chapter 11 Plan dated November 28, 2025.

The Debtor is a corporation organized under the laws of the State
of Florida which operates as a heavy civil contractor.

Specifically, it performs all aspects of horizontal construction
starting with the raw land to prepare a project site for vertical
construction. The principal of the Debtor, Bruce Prince, has been
in the site development business for 42 years.

The Debtor's financial issues stem from a project it was involved
in known as America Walks, a senior housing project to be built in
St. Lucie County, Florida (the "Project"). Procedurally, on
December 1, 2022, America Walks commenced arbitration proceedings
(the "Arbitration") by filing with the American Arbitration
Association (the "AAA") a Demand for Arbitration against Origin,
the Debtor, and the Surety, seeking damages in excess of
$10,000,000.00.

After a lengthy trial before the Arbitration Panel, the Panel ruled
in favor of America Walks. The Panel entered an Interim Award on
the Merits dated May 13, 2025 in the amount of $9,318,985.23
against the Debtor. As America Walks was the prevailing party, the
Panel found that America Walks was entitled to a claim for
attorney's fees.

Post-petition, America Walks filed a Motion for Relief from Stay
requesting that the litigation between it and the Surety be allowed
to continue outside this forum. The Debtor believes that
confirmation of this Chapter 11 plan can provide the Debtor with
relief to overcome its losses, continue operating, and keep its
many employees employed.

The Debtor believes that the Plan of Reorganization provides the
best value for the creditors' claims and is in their best interest.
Cash flow Projections set forth a projected budget of the Debtor
for the five-year term of the Plan.

Class Eighteen consists of General Unsecured Claims. The General
Unsecured claims include all other allowed claims of Unsecured
Creditors of the Debtor, subject to any Objections that are filed
and sustained by the Court. The general unsecured claims prior to
the filing of any objections total the amount of $26,517,622.45,
which will be paid over the five-year term of the Plan at the rate
of $2,500.00 per month on a pro-rata basis. The payments will
commence on the Effective Date of the Plan.

The dividend to this class of creditors is subject to change upon
the determination of objections to claims. To the extent that the
Debtor is successful or unsuccessful in any or all of the proposed
Objections, then the dividend and distribution to each individual
Class of General Unsecured Claims then the dividend and
distribution to each individual creditor will be adjusted
accordingly. These claims are impaired.

Class Nineteen consists of Equity Holders. There shall be no
distribution to the equity holders of the Debtor under the
confirmed Plan and no dividends to this class of claimants.

The Debtor will continue to operate and be managed by Bruce Prince,
the President and sole shareholder.

The Debtor's largest asset is its Accounts Receivable. As of the
filing of the Plan and Disclosure Statement, the Accounts
Receivable was $3,121,705.48. This Accounts Receivable as reported
is essentially a work in progress report as the figure is a gross
amount due, before subcontractors, vendors and supplies are paid.
Current outstanding subcontractors, supplies and vendors for the
ongoing projects total $2,660,766.34.

ROYAL HELIUM: Exits CCAA Through Reverse Takeover by Keranic
------------------------------------------------------------
Royal Helium Ltd. announced on November 28, 2025, that Royal and
its subsidiaries, Royal Helium Exploration Limited and Imperial
Helium Corp., have exited the proceedings commenced under the
Companies' Creditors Arrangements Act (Canada) pursuant to the
closing of a reverse takeover transaction by Keranic Industrial Gas
Inc. under an Amalgamation Agreement dated September 25, 2025 among
the Target Companies, Keranic, 102218166 Saskatchewan Ltd., and
102218200 Saskatchewan Inc.

Summary of the Transaction:

The Transaction was completed by way of a three-cornered
amalgamation pursuant to the Amalgamation Agreement, whereby, among
other things, Keranic and Subco, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Royal, amalgamated to form a new wholly-owned subsidiary of Royal
and the Target Companies were removed from the CCAA Proceedings.

The Transaction was completed pursuant to a reverse vesting order
approved by the Court of King's Bench (Alberta).

Prior to completion of the Amalgamation, a consolidation of Royal's
outstanding common shares was completed on an 8:1 basis, and then
the articles of Royal were amended to distinguish between two
classes of shares: Class A common voting shares and Class B
preferred non-voting shares.

All existing debentures, options and warrants of Royal outstanding
prior to closing the Transaction were terminated pursuant to the
Order.

All of the liabilities of the Target Companies, except for certain
retained liabilities were vested and transferred to ResidualCo
pursuant to the Order. The Target Companies retained all of their
assets which are now acquired by Keranic.

In connection with the Amalgamation, the holders of Keranic Shares
received one Class A Share for each one Keranic Share held prior to
the Amalgamation. All of the outstanding warrants of Keranic were
replaced with warrants to purchase Royal securities having the same
economic terms as the original securities.

Offering and Securities Details:

Prior to closing of the Transaction, Keranic completed a brokered
subscription receipt financing for 7,030,000 subscription receipts
of Keranic at a price of $0.50 per Subscription Receipt and a
non-brokered common share offering for 75,901,328 Class A shares of
Keranic at a price of $0.02108 per Keranic Share.

The proceeds from the Subscription Receipt Offering and Share
Offering were used to satisfy the purchase price of the
Transaction.

Immediately prior to closing of the Transaction, each Subscription
Receipt was automatically exchanged for one unit of Keranic
consisting of one Keranic Share and one Keranic Share purchase
warrant exercisable at a price of $0.65 per Keranic Share for a
period of three years from closing of the Transaction.

In addition, Keranic issued 562,400 broker warrants to acquire
Units at a price of $0.50 per Unit for a period of three years
following closing of the Transaction.

Research Capital Corporation acted as sole agent and bookrunner for
the Subscription Receipt Offering.

An affiliate of AirLife Gases Private Limited (the "Strategic
Investor") subscribed for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,000,000
pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Offering and $930,000 pursuant
to the Share Offering and subsequently acquired an additional

majority board representation, and one of such nominee directors
shall be the chair of the board of directors. The Strategic
Investor has also been granted the corporate naming rights of
Royal, subject to regulatory and shareholder approval.

right to enter into a helium and specialty gases offtake agreement
with respect to all helium and all other products produced by the
Target Companies, on market terms. Syndicate Lending Corporation

helium discoveries and widespread helium concentrations across a
large, 600,000-acre land position strategically located across
Saskatchewan's and Alberta's helium corridors, alongside the
recently built Steveville plant facility and pipeline
infrastructure capable of processing 15,000 Mcf/day of raw gas. The
Steveville plant facility will be restarting production within 12
weeks following the completion of the Transaction, leveraging a
helium-focused management team, with full capacity production

SANDISK CORP: Moody's Hikes CFR to Ba2, Outlook Stable
------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings upgraded the ratings of Sandisk Corporation
(Sandisk), including the corporate family rating to Ba2 from Ba3,
probability of default rating to Ba2-PD from Ba3-PD, and backed
senior secured first lien bank credit facility (revolving credit
facility and term loan B) to Ba2 from Ba3. The speculative grade
liquidity (SGL) rating is unchanged at SGL-1. The outlook remains
stable.

The ratings upgrade reflects governance factors, as Moody's expects
that Sandisk will maintain the conservative financial policy that
the company has followed since its spin-off from Western Digital
Corporation in late February 2025. Since the spin-off, Sandisk has
directed free cash flow (FCF) to reduce financial leverage. Over
the last two quarters, Sandisk reduced the outstanding balance of
the senior secured term loan (Term Loan) by about one-third such
that reported debt is now less than the cash balance.  

The upgrade also reflects the rapidly increasing revenues and
improving profitability as Sandisk benefits from strong demand
across its end markets. Pricing will remain supportive due to tight
supply conditions, which Moody's expects to be sustained over the
near term. Over the next 12 to 18 months, Moody's anticipates that
financial leverage will decline toward 0.8x debt to EBITDA (Moody's
adjusted) from about 3.4x (12 months ended October 03, 2025,
Moody's adjusted).

RATINGS RATIONALE

Sandisk's credit profile reflects Moody's expectations that the
company will maintain low financial leverage and very good
liquidity. Moody's expects debt to EBITDA (Moody's adjusted) will
decline toward 0.8x over the next 12 to 18 months from about 3.4x
(12 months ended October 03, 2025, Moody's adjusted). The very good
liquidity reflects the large cash balance, the fully-available $1.5
billion senior secured first lien revolving credit facility due
2030 (Revolver), and Sandisk's history of generating strong FCF
during industry upcycles. The credit profile also incorporates the
healthy long term growing market demand for data storage capacity,
the company's large operating scale, and its broad portfolio of
flash-based storage products.

Moody's considers low financial leverage and very good liquidity as
important underpinnings of the rating given the high variability of
flash memory end market demand, which results in periodic
market-wide inventory corrections such as those in 2022-2023 and
2019. Sandisk faces intense competition and has only modest market
share, with Samsung and SK Hynix each holding substantially larger
market shares in both flash memory and solid state drives (SSDs).
The flash industry is also highly capital intensive, which can
strain flash manufacturers' FCF during periods of elevated capital
for technology node transitions. The NAND memory chips that Sandisk
requires for its products are supplied by the manufacturing joint
ventures (Flash Ventures) between Sandisk and Kioxia Corporation.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations that revenues will
increase toward $9.5 billion from $7.8 billion (12 months ended
October 03, 2025) over the next 12 to 18 months. Moody's expects
that with the growing revenues, profitability will also improve,
with the EBITDA margin approaching 20% (Moody's adjusted). The
increasing revenues and improved profitability will result in
deleveraging, with debt to EBITDA (Moody's adjusted) declining
toward 0.8x over the period.

The Ba2 rating on both the Revolver and the Term Loan, which equals
the Ba2 CFR, reflects the collateral (comprised of a first priority
lien on the company's assets), and the limited cushion of unsecured
liabilities.

Sandisk's speculative grade liquidity (SGL) rating of SGL-1
reflects the company's very good liquidity, including cash balance
of roughly $1.4 billion as of October 03, 2025 and the $1.5 billion
Revolver, which Moody's expects will remain fully available given
the large cash balance and the FCF generation. The Term Loan is not
subject to any financial maintenance covenants.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

The ratings could be upgraded if:

-- The company demonstrates a track record of steadily improving
financial performance and consistent FCF generation

-- Sandisk achieves an improved competitive position, as evidenced
by revenue growth exceeding the industry growth rate, indicating
market share gains, while improving profitability rates

-- The company maintains a conservative financial policy,
including strong liquidity and low financial leverage, with debt to
EBITDA (Moody's adjusted) maintained below 1x and FCF to debt
(Moody's adjusted) above 25%

The ratings could be downgraded if:

-- Sandisk experiences an erosion of its market position as
evidenced by revenue growth or profitability rates trailing those
of its key peers

-- The company pursues an aggressive financial policy such that
liquidity is materially reduced or Moody's expects either FCF to
debt (Moody's adjusted) will remain below 20% or debt to EBITDA
(Moody's adjusted) will remain above 2x

Sandisk designs and manufactures data storage devices based on NAND
flash technology. Products include a broad range of solid state
drives (SSDs), embedded storage, removable storage cards, USB
drives, and NAND wafers and components.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Semiconductors
published in October 2025.

Sandisk's Ba2 CFR is three notches below the scorecard-indicated
outcome of Baa2. The CFR incorporates the high volatility of end
market demand, the high capital-intensity, and Sandisk's limited
market share relative to its much larger, diversified competitors.


SCCY INDUSTRIES: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to December 31
----------------------------------------------------------------
SCCY Industries, LLC, asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Middle District of Florida to extend its exclusivity periods to
file a plan of reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to
December 31, 2025.

The Debtor is a Florida limited liability company that was formed
in 2003 to manufacture weaponry at 1800 Concept Court Daytona
Beach, FL.

Since the Petition Date, Debtor has worked diligently to evaluate
claims, reconcile financial information, and engage in discussions
concerning settlement structure, repayment terms, and creditor
treatment, all with the goal of maximizing value for the estate,
creditors, and stakeholders.

The Debtor explains that its progress toward settlement constitutes
cause for an extension of the exclusivity periods.

The Debtor claims that its delay in filing a plan is not the result
of inaction but of good-faith efforts to finalize a global
resolution that will maximize value for all stakeholders.

The Debtor asserts that this Motion is not submitted for purposes
of delay, and the company submits that the relief requested in this
Motion will not prejudice any party in interest.

SCIL USA: Moody's Rates New $785MM Secured 1st Lien Term Loan 'B1'
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has assigned a B1 rating to SCIL USA Holdings LLC's
$785 million backed senior secured 1st lien term loan B2. SCIL USA
Holdings LLC is a subsidiary of SCIL IV LLC (Polynt). The outlook
on SCIL USA Holdings LLC is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

This does not reflect additional debt issuance, but is a
reallocation of the company's recent backed senior secured first
lien term loan B issuance to separate the USD and EUR tranches. All
ratings and outlook associated with SCIL IV LLC are unchanged.

STRUCTURAL CONSIDERATIONS

Moody's aligns the B1 instrument ratings of the backed senior
secured first lien term loans B (TLB), RCF, and legacy backed
senior secured notes of SCIL IV LLC and SCIL USA Holdings LLC. The
TLBs, RCF and the backed senior secured notes rank pari passu. The
company's $100 million asset-based lending (ABL) facility (unrated)
is secured with inventories and receivables from the US
subsidiaries and ranks ahead of the TLBs, RCF and backed senior
secured notes. However, the size of the ABL is not sufficient to
warrant downward notching of the TLBs, RCF or backed senior secured
notes.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATING

Factors that could lead to an upgrade of Polynt's ratings include:
(i) a track record of more conservative financial policies,
including a public commitment to achieve and maintain a specific
and lower target leverage, (ii) increased product and end-market
diversification which leads to improved revenue, volume and EBITDA
visibility and stability, (iii) Moody's-adjusted debt/EBITDA below
3.25x on a sustained basis, and (iv) FCF/Debt consistently in the
low double digits in percentage terms.

Factors that could lead to a downgrade of Polynt's ratings include:
(i) deterioration in end markets or a substantial decline in
GVA/ton, translating into significant operational and financial
underperformance, (ii) Moody's-adjusted gross debt/EBITDA exceeding
4.75x on a sustained basis, (iii) Moody's-adjusted FCF/debt in the
mid-single digits in percentage terms or lower, or (iv) the
enactment of more aggressive financial policies which would favor
shareholder returns over creditors.

PRINCIPAL METHODOLOGY

The principal methodology used in this rating was Chemicals
published in October 2023.

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.

CORPORATE PROFILE

SCIL IV LLC (Polynt) is a large global supplier of composite
resins, with strong market shares in UPRs in both the US and
Europe. The company is 100% owned by funds associated with Black
Diamond Capital Management LLC. For the twelve months ended June
30, 2025 the company generated revenue of EUR2.1 billion.

SUKHRAJ S. PAMMA: Court Narrows Claims in Dhillon Case
------------------------------------------------------
Judge Christopher D. Jaime of the United States Bankruptcy Court
for the Eastern District of California granted in part and denied
in part Citizens Business Bank's motion to dismiss the adversary
proceeding captioned as BALRAJ DHILLON, INDERJIT DHILLON, MANDIP
DHILLON, and JASPREET DHILLON, Plaintiff(s), v. U.S. BANK NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION, as Custodian/Trustee for Federal Agricultural Mortgage
Corporation Programs; CITIZENS BUSINESS BANK, as Successor to
Suncrest Bank; SUKHRAJ SINGH PAMMA; and JAISMIN KAUR PAMMA,
Defendant(s), Adversary No. 25-2015 (Bankr. E.D. Cal.).

On January 28, 2025, plaintiffs Balraj Dhillon, Inderjit Dhillon,
Mandip Dhillon and Jaspreet Dhillon filed a Complaint against
defendants U.S. Bank National Association, as Custodian/Trustee for
Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation Programs; Citizens
Business Bank, as Successor to Suncrest Bank; Sukhraj Singh Pamma;
and Jaismin Kaur Pamma initiating this adversary proceeding. On
March 27, 2025, defendant Citizens Business Bank, as successor by
merger to Suncrest Bank ("Citizens Bank"), filed a Motion to
Dismiss the Third Through Fifth Causes of Action from the Adversary
Complaint Pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Rule
12(b)(6).

On June 17, 2025, Plaintiffs filed a First Amended Complaint and
supporting Exhibits.  Citizens Bank thereafter filed a Motion to
Dismiss First Amended Complaint Pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure Rule 12(b)(6). Citizens Bank moves to dismiss Counts 4
through 7. Plaintiffs filed an opposition.

The subject of this adversary proceeding stems from Plaintiffs'
purchase of real property identified as Sutter County APN
10-210-023 ("Parcel 23") on September 30, 2022. Plaintiffs
purchased Parcel 23 from defendant-debtor Sukhraj S. Pamma
("Pamma") for $3,024,035.00.

Pamma and his wife, defendant Jaismin Kaur Pamma, are the borrowers
on an outstanding loan made by Suncrest Bank on or about August 3,
2016, in the original principal amount of $4,050,000. The 2016
Suncrest Loan was cross-collateralized with other parcels of real
property the Pammas owned.

Plaintiffs engaged the title company, Old Republic Title Company,
to hold escrow for the transaction.

Citizens Bank submitted to ORTC two written payoff demand
statements demanding one payment totaling $1,197,730.82 for the
2016 Suncrest Loan and the other payment totaling $408,000.00 for
the 2020 Suncrest Loan. Plaintiffs believed at the close of escrow
and after paying these two demands in full that they had purchased
Parcel 23 in fee title absolute without any encumbrances.

Citizens Bank never informed ORTC that it had previously assigned
its interest in the 2016 Suncrest Loan, or that Citizens Bank did
not have the authority to demand and accept payoff of that
obligation from Plaintiffs' purchase escrow, or that Citizens Bank
did not have authority to release and reconvey the 2016 Sutter
County deed of trust.

Plaintiffs filed seven claims for relief in the FAC based on these
factual allegations. Citizens Bank only seeks dismissal of Counts 4
through 7, so the court only addresses those Counts.

     A. Count 4 - Negligent Misrepresentation Against Citizens
Bank

Plaintiffs allege in Count 4 a claim for negligent
misrepresentation based on Citizens Bank making affirmative
misrepresentations throughout the sale and purchase process of
Parcel 23. The FAC states in Count 4 that these affirmative
misrepresentations include Citizens Bank stating it has already
reconveyed the 2016 Sutter County deed of trust when it had not.

     B. Count 5 - Breach of Contract and the Implied Covenant of
Good Faith and Fair Dealing Against Citizens Bank

Plaintiffs allege in Count 5 that Plaintiffs on the one hand,
through their escrow agent ORTC, and Citizens Bank on the other
hand, entered into a contract whereby Citizens Bank would release
the 2016 Sutter County deed of trust upon receipt of the
$1,197,730.82 in full satisfaction of its payoff demand. They
allege that they have performed each term of the contract required
on their part, and that as a direct and proximate cause of Citizens
Bank’s breach of the Payoff Agreement, Plaintiffs have suffered
damages in an amount to be proven at trial.

     C. Count 6 - Unjust Enrichment Against Citizens Bank

Plaintiffs allege in Count 6 that Citizens Bank's acceptance of
approximately $1,197,730.82 in satisfaction of its demand from
Plaintiffs' purchase funds, and Citizens Bank's subsequent
purported Rescission of the Parcel 23 Reconveyance, Citizens Bank
has been unjustly enriched in the amount of at least $1,197,730.82.


     D. Count 7 - Declaratory and Injunctive Relief

Against Citizens Bank Plaintiffs request declaratory and injunctive
relief in Count 7 of the FAC.

Plaintiffs request that if it is determined that the 2016 Sutter
County deed of trust remains a valid and enforceable lien against
Plaintiffs' fee interest in Parcel 23, the payment of $1,197,730.82
to Citizens Bank from Plaintiffs' purchase funds should be found to
have been made by mutual mistake. Plaintiffs request Citizens Bank
restore to Plaintiffs the payment of $1,197,730.82, with applicable
interest, that was tendered due to the mutual mistake.

The Court concludes that Plaintiffs have not adequately pleaded
justifiable reliance on the alleged misrepresentations, and so
Count 4 must be dismissed for failure to state a claim on this
alternative and independent basis.

The Court concludes that Plaintiffs have adequately pleaded a cause
of action for breach of contract and the implied covenant of good
faith and fair dealing to survive the Motion. Therefore, the Motion
is denied as to Count 5.

The Court concludes that Citizens Bank could have moved to dismiss
Count 6 for unjust enrichment in its original motion to dismiss,
the defense or objection being available at that time, and so Fed.
R. Civ. P. 12(g)(2) bars Citizens Bank from now moving to dismiss
Count 6 under Rule 12(b)(6). Therefore, the Motion is denied as to
Count 6.

Citizens Bank moves to dismiss Count 7 not for the substance of the
claim, but on procedural grounds, arguing adding Count 7 in the FAC
is beyond the scope of the court's order granting leave to amend
the complaint. Leave to amend was not limited to only Counts 3
through 5 in the text of the court's Order. Therefore, the Motion
is denied as to Count 7.

The Motion is granted as to Count 4 of the FAC which is dismissed
with prejudice and without leave to amend. The Motion is denied as
to Counts 5, 6, and 7 of the FAC.

SUPERIOR EQUIPMENT: Unsecureds Will Get 100% of Claims over 5 Years
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Superior Equipment Lease LLC filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Northern District of Illinois a Small Business Plan of
Reorganization dated November 26, 2025.

The Debtor was founded in 2018 by Stefan Donev and Ventzislav
Dinkov. Originally conceived as a leasing company, the Debtor
established itself as a reliable provider of trucks and trailers to
several operating companies.

In early 2024, the demand for trucking equipment began to decrease
due to the overall slowdown in the trucking industry. Because many
of its assets were acquired at the height of the market, and as a
result carried high monthly payments, the Debtor could no longer
generate a profit, and was forced to seek protection under Ch. 11.

If the Debtor were to be liquidated, creditors would receive a
maximum distribution of 93% after incurring substantial liquidation
expenses. The funds to be paid to creditors under the Plan exceed
93% distribution they would receive upon liquidation. As a result,
creditors will derive the most benefit from allowing the Debtor to
restructure and generate income to satisfy the payments under the
Plan.

The Plan is a 5-year plan. The final Plan payment will be in
approximately 2031.

The Plan provides that all administrative creditors will be paid in
full on the Effective Date of the Plan (which is 30 days after the
Order confirming the Plan is a final Order) unless otherwise
agreed. Priority tax claims will receive 100% of their allowed
claims over the period of the Plan term (5 years).

Secured Creditors will be paid 100% of their secured claims under
Class 1 of the Plan. Class 2 general unsecured creditors will
receive a pro rata share of the Unsecured Creditor Payment over a
period of 5 years, which shall equal approximately 100%
distribution on their claims. Class 3 Claims of Equity Holders will
not receive a distribution unless all other classes of creditors
receive payment in full.

Class 2 consists of Allowed Unsecured Claims. Holders of allowed
unsecured claims shall receive a pro rata share of the Unsecured
Creditor Payments on an annual basis for a period of 5 years,
beginning on the 1st anniversary of the Effective Date of the Plan,
and continuing yearly for another 4 years. The Unsecured Creditor
Payments shall equal $375,000 in the aggregate and each yearly
payment shall be $75,000 for five payments.

Based upon the unsecured claims (which includes deficiency claims
of secured creditors), the estimated distribution to unsecured
creditors is 100%. No distribution will be made for unsecured
claims which were (i) scheduled as disputed; and (ii) no timely
proof of claim was filed.

Class 3 consists of Equity Security Holders. Equity security
holders shall retain their interests in the Debtor. In addition,
the principal of the Debtor will be entitled to a salary for his
work on behalf of the Debtor.

The Debtor's financial projections show that the Debtor will have
cumulative projected disposable income sufficient to pay the
required payments under the Plan.

TASTY PEACH STUDIOS: Gets Interim OK to Use Cash Collateral
-----------------------------------------------------------
Tasty Peach Studios, Inc. received interim approval from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Indiana to use cash
collateral.

The court authorized the Debtor to use cash collateral to fund
operations according to its budget. The Debtor must not pay insider
wages without further court approval, and weekly expenditures must
not exceed budgeted amounts by more than 10% without consent from
Five Star Bank and the U.S. Small Business Administration.

Secured creditors with an interest in the cash collateral,
including Five Star Bank and the SBA, will be provided with
protection through replacement liens on post-petition assets such
as cash, inventory, and receivables, along with insurance coverage,
payment of post-petition taxes, and ongoing financial reporting to
creditors.

As additional protection, Five Star Bank will continue to receive
monthly payments of $1,000.

THASSOS INC: Gets OK to Use Cash Collateral Until Jan. 8
--------------------------------------------------------
Thassos, Inc. received another extension from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division to
use cash collateral.

The court authorized the Debtor's interim use of cash collateral
through January 8, 2026, to pay the operating expenses set forth in
its budget. Use of funds for extraordinary expenses in excess of
the budget requires further court order or prior written approval
of Newtek Bank, N.A., the Debtor's secured creditor.

The budget projects total operational expenses of $136,867 for the
period from November 20 to January 8, 2026.

As protection for any diminution in value of its cash collateral,
Newtek was granted valid, binding, enforceable, and perfected
replacement liens on and security interests in its collateral.
These replacement liens will have the same validity, priority and
extent as the secured creditor's pre-bankruptcy liens.

As further protection, Newtek will continue to receive payment of
$3,000. Failure to pay triggers a default and a late charge of 5%.
It also allows Newtek to accelerate the debt and seek enforcement.

The next hearing is scheduled for January 7, 2026.

Newtek Bank is the holder of a first position security interest in
the cash collateral and is owed $390,661 pursuant to SBA loan.

VIVAKOR INC: Adds Voting Rights for Preferred Holders After Waiver
------------------------------------------------------------------
Vivakor Inc. said in an SEC filing that it granted additional
voting rights to its Series A preferred holders and issued 3.6
million restricted common shares for unpaid dividends after the
investors agreed to forgo a year of dividend rights under an
amendment to the preferred stock terms.  In addition, Chief
Executive Officer James Ballengee canceled a $569,589 convertible
note owed to him as part of the amended Series A preferred
agreement.

The deal had preferred holders waive a year of dividends from April
30, 2026 to April 29, 2027 in exchange for voting power equal to
about 35% of Vivakor's outstanding votes, while shareholders
previously approved a potential conversion of the preferred stock
above the 19.99% threshold, if the Company's Board of Directors and
executive management elected to convert the Preferred Stock.  The
Company satisfied July 31, 2025 and October 31, 2025 dividend
obligations with 3.6 million shares, including roughly 1.9 million
issued to entities controlled by Ballengee, in a transaction made
under a private-offering exemption.

Separately, on Nov. 26, 2025, the Company issued 1,557,808
restricted common shares to a consultant under a Consulting
Agreement, with the transaction exempt from registration under
Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as the recipient is a
sophisticated investor familiar with its operations.  On the same
date, the Company issued 82,500 restricted common shares to an
investor as inducement shares under a previously disclosed
Securities Purchase Agreement, also exempt from registration under
Section 4(a)(2) for the same reason.

                           About Vivakor

Vivakor, Inc., headquartered in Dallas, Texas, provides integrated
energy services in the continental United States, operating
oilfield trucking fleets and facilities for crude oil gathering,
storage, transportation, reuse, and waste remediation under
long-term contracts.  The Company develops, acquires, and manages
assets and technologies in the energy sector, with operations
organized into three segments -- transportation and logistics,
terminaling and storage services, and supply and trading --
supporting the movement of crude oil across the Permian Basin,
Eagle Ford Basin, and mid-continent regions.

In its audit report dated April 15, 2025, Urish Popeck & Co., LLC
issued a "going concern" qualification citing that the Company has
a significant working capital deficiency, suffered significant
recurring losses from operations, and needs to raise additional
funds to meet its obligations and sustain its operations.  These
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.

The Company has historically suffered net losses and cumulative

Administration. No payments must be made to insiders.

As protection, the SBA will receive a monthly payment of $9,834. In

owns real property at 9500 Arlington Avenue, Riverside, California,
employs thirteen staff, and serves long-term clients including

assets include cash on hand, accounts receivable, and the Arlington
property, with a total asset value not exceeding $3.1 million.

The entities holding interests in the cash collateral are the SBA

YELLOW CORP: Judge Explains Chapter 11 Confirmation Decision
------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Craig T. Goldblatt of the United States Bankruptcy Court for
the District of Delaware issued a Memorandum Opinion detailing the
basis for confirming Yellow Corporation's Chapter 11 plan.

Much of the litigation in the case has had to do with the claims of
the company's various pension plans for withdrawal liability under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA"), arising out
of the company's withdrawal from those pension plans. At the same
time, the parties have worked together cooperatively and
successfully to sell the company's assets, generating more than $2
billion in proceeds. With those proceeds, the company paid off its
secured debt in full and will have hundreds of millions of dollars
to distribute to remaining stakeholders.

The debtors have proposed a plan that would create a liquidating
trust that would finish the work of resolving the otherwise
unliquidated claims against the estate, sell the few assets that
remain unsold, and pursue estate causes of action. The trust would
then distribute those proceeds to creditors in accordance with
their statutory priority. MFN, which (along with its affiliates) is
both a shareholder and a creditor of the debtors, objects to
confirmation of the plan.

MFN asserts two objections to confirmation of the plan. First, it
argues that the trust agreement does not go far enough in ensuring
that the trust is fully independent and in guarding against the
pension plans' exercise of improper influence. For these reasons,
MFN argues that the plan was not proposed in good faith, as 11
U.S.C. Sec. 1129(a)(3) requires.  But "good faith" is a standard
that is based on the totality of the circumstances. The Court is
satisfied that the safeguards included in the trust agreement, when
considered as part of a holistic analysis of the plan, are
sufficient to meet the good faith standard.

MFN argues that creditors would recover more if the case were
converted to a chapter 7 liquidation than they will under the plan.
For that reason, they argue that the plan fails the "best
interests" test of 11 U.S.C. Sec. 1129(a)(7).

The "low case" analysis conducted by Brian Whittman, who is a
managing director of Alvarez & Marsal, the debtors' financial
advisor, of what creditors would recover under the plan assumed
that the debtors would have $600 million available to distribute to
creditors and that the total pool of unsecured claims would be
$1.66 billion. His "high case" (on the second page of his
spreadsheet) assumed $700 million of distributable value and a
total claims pool of $1.28 billion.

Based on MFN's cross-examination at the confirmation hearing of the
debtors' financial advisor who prepared the liquidation analysis,
the Court concludes that at least one of the assumptions contained
in the debtors' liquidation analysis cannot be supported. The Court
nevertheless does not believe that creditors will do better if
these cases are converted to chapter 7 liquidations than they will
under the proposed plan.

The principal reason for that is that the plan now before the Court
sets the parties on a path towards resolution of the most important
disputes. Whether that proposed resolution (which the parties
represent will be presented to the Court in the near term) can be
approved is uncertain. But this Court finds that the introduction
of a chapter 7 trustee, who is a total stranger to these
proceedings, will substantially set back the efforts towards
resolution. These cases have already been very expensive. The
result of a conversion to chapter 7 will be a longer period of very
expensive litigation that will consume substantial value that could
otherwise be distributed to creditors.  For those reasons, the
Court concludes that the proposed plan satisfies the best interests
test of Sec. 1129(a)(7). The Court has accordingly entered an order
confirming the plan.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Sept. 10, 2025,
Yellow Corporation and affiliates and the Official Committee of
Unsecured Creditors submitted a Revised Fourth Amended Disclosure
Statement describing Fourth Amended Joint Plan dated September 2,
2025.

The Amended Plan and the Plan Settlement seek to resolve
significant litigation that would otherwise further delay
confirmation of a chapter 11 plan and distributions to unsecured
creditors and diminish funds available to pay Allowed Claims.

However, as further described in this Disclosure Statement, events
following the Filing of the Amended Plan, including the Court's
Preliminary MEPP Opinion and the Filing of the Motion to Convert,
forced the Debtors, the Committee, and other key stakeholders to
reevaluate the Plan Settlement and reengage in further discussions
to determine whether the proposed settlements embodied in the
Amended Plan were still viable. The Plan Proponents determined they
were not. Accordingly, and in order to achieve an orderly
conclusion to these cases, the Plan Proponents filed the Plan.

Generally, the Plan:

     * provides for the vesting of all of the Debtors' and their
Estates' assets as of the Effective Date in the Liquidating Trust
for the purpose of distributions to Holders of Allowed Claims or
Allowed Interests, as applicable;

     * provides for the transfer of all pending litigation and
disputes to the Liquidating Trust for resolution after the
Effective Date in accordance with the Liquidating Trust Agreement;

     * provides that the Committee, in consultation with the
Debtors, will designate a Liquidating Trustee to wind down the
Debtors' remaining affairs, pay, and reconcile Claims, and
administer the Plan in an efficient manner; and

     * contemplates recoveries to Holders of Administrative Claims,
Other Priority Claims, Employee PTO/Commission Full Pay GUC Claims,
and Convenience Class Claims that will render unimpaired the
Allowed Claims of such Holders.

Class 5 consists of General Unsecured Claims. Except to the extent
that a Holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim agrees to less
favorable treatment with the Debtors and the Committee or as
otherwise contemplated by the Liquidating Trust Agreement, in
exchange for such Allowed General Unsecured Claim, each Holder of
an Allowed General Unsecured Claim shall receive (i) its Pro Rata
share of the GUC Liquidating Trust Interests and as a Beneficiary
shall receive, on the applicable Distribution Date, its Pro Rata
share of Distributable Proceeds derived from the Liquidating Trust
Assets available for distribution on each such Distribution Date as
provided under the Plan and Liquidating Trust Agreement, plus (ii)
if and only to the extent Distributable Proceeds are available
after all Allowed General Unsecured Claims are paid in full, in
Cash, a Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive Postpetition
Interest from the Petition Date through and including the date of
satisfaction of such Allowed General Unsecured Claim in full, in
Cash; provided, a portion of Allowed Withdrawal Liability Claims
may be reduced and/or subordinated to all other Allowed General
Unsecured Claims in an amount as determined by a Final Order or as
otherwise agreed to by the applicable claimant, the Debtors and the
Committee or as otherwise contemplated by the Liquidating Trust
Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Holders of Allowed General
Unsecured Claims shall receive the Postpetition Interest set forth
in Article III.B.6 of the Plan on a pari pasu basis with Allowed
Subordinated Withdrawal Liability Claims, if any.

The Debtors or Liquidating Trustee, as applicable, shall fund the
distributions and obligations under the Plan with Cash on hand held
by the Debtors or the Liquidating Trust, as applicable, on and
after the Effective Date, net Cash proceeds generated by the sale,
lease, liquidation, or other disposition of Estate property,
including pursuant to the Debtors' and the Estates' Causes of
Action, including, but not limited to any Avoidance Actions,
Third-Party Sale Transactions, and Cash generated by the use, sale,
lease, liquidation or other disposition of the Liquidating Trust
Assets. Distributable Proceeds are estimated to be between $600-700
million, assuming an Effective Date on or about November 30, 2025.

The Plan Proponents' estimate of aggregate Allowed General
Unsecured Claims ranges from approximately $1,250.0 million to
$1,700.0 million.

Although the Plan Proponents' estimate of Allowed General Unsecured
Claims is generally the result of the Plan Proponents' and their
advisors' analysis of reasonably available information, the
projected amount of Allowed General Unsecured Claims set forth
herein is subject to material change (either higher or lower),
which difference could materially affect recoveries to the Holders
of Allowed Claims in Class 5. The Debtors have Filed thirty-two
omnibus objections to Claims, which have sought to reduce the
claims pool by more than $4.67 billion. The Debtors and, after the
Effective Date, the Liquidating Trust, are expected to continue
objecting to certain Proofs of Claim, and any such objections could
cause the total amount of Allowed General Unsecured Claims to
change further. These changes could affect recoveries to Holders of
General Unsecured Claims and such changes could be material.

ZACHRY HOLDINGS: Court Disallows Encina's Proof of Claim
--------------------------------------------------------
Judge Marvin Isgur of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Texas denied Encina Development Group, LLC's
motion to allow its proof of claim in the bankruptcy case of Zachry
Holdings, Inc. and its affiliates to be filed after the claims
filing deadline. Encina's claim is disallowed.

On January 15, 2021, Zachry Engineering Corporation sued Encina in
the 125th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas, alleging
breach of contract. On April 5, 2021, Encina filed a counterclaim
against ZEC alleging breach of contract. In October 2021, ZEC filed
a motion to dismiss Encina's counterclaim.5 ZEC's motion was denied
in March 2022. In April 2022, ZEC appealed the district court's
denial of its motion to dismiss. In May 2023, the court of appeals
affirmed the district court's decision. In July 2023, ZEC filed a
petition for review with the Texas Supreme Court.

On July 26, 2024, the Bankruptcy Court issued an order setting
September 16, 2024, as the bar date for filing proofs of claim.
Encina was not served the Bar Date Order. Encina filed its proof of
claim on December 10, 2024.

On January 23, 2025, the Debtors filed their Modified First Amended
Joint Chapter 11 Plan, which provided that all proofs of claim
filed after the bar date were disallowed. Encina sought relief from
this provision on February 11, 2025. Zachry's Chapter 11 plan
became effective on April 10, 2025.

Encina argues that the Court should allow its proof of claim to be
filed after the bar date under:

   (1) due process grounds,
   (2) Bankruptcy Local Rule 3003-1, or
   (3) Bankruptcy Rule 9006(b)(1).

The Court disagrees. Judge Isgur explains, "Here, Zachry's Chapter
11 plan has been confirmed. Encina did not receive notice of the
bar date until after it had passed. However, Encina received the
notice of the bankruptcy fifteen weeks prior to the bar date and
twenty-seven weeks before it filed its proof of claim. Encina had
actual knowledge that ZEC was in bankruptcy and did not take steps
to protect its rights. Thus, the requirements of due process were
satisfied. Due process does not require that Encina's claim be
allowed."

The Court declines to allow Encina's proof of claim under
Bankruptcy Local Rule 3003-1 and Bankruptcy Rule 9006.

According to the Court, while Encina's claim is unlikely to
adversely impact the postconfirmation proceedings, the sheer length
of delay cannot be overlooked. In consideration of the extreme
delay in this case, the Court concludes that Encina's neglect was
not excusable.

ZHL SERVICES: Seeks Cash Collateral Access
------------------------------------------
ZHL Services, LLC, asks the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Middle District of Florida, Jacksonville Division, for authority to
use cash collateral and provide adequate protection.

The cash collateral consists of post-petition accounts receivable,
chattel paper, contracts, cash, bank accounts, and other property
pledged to secured creditors, including Celtic Bank/United States
of America SBA, Kapitus LLC, and Arsenal Funding, under
pre-petition loan agreements. The Debtor estimates the current
value of cash and receivables at approximately $42,000 and proposes
to treat Celtic Bank/USA SBA as holding the primary lien on cash
collateral.

The Debtor seeks authorization to use cash collateral to maintain
business operations, meet post-petition contractual and tax
obligations, cover payroll, inventory, and equipment costs, and
continue ongoing operations without interruption.

To protect secured creditors, the Debtor proposes granting
post-petition replacement liens on cash collateral and is willing
to negotiate terms with Celtic Bank/USA SBA.

A proposed budget was included with the request, detailing income,
cost of sales, gross profit, and expenses through December 2025 to
February 2026, including payroll, employee benefits, insurance,
equipment fuel, and other operating expenses. The budget projects
sufficient net profit to meet operational obligations while
allowing for a 10% variance per line item.

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

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

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