AES CORP: S&P Affirms 'BB' Rating on Junior Subordinated Debt ------------------------------------------------------------- S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BBB-' issuer credit rating on The AES Corp. (AES), its 'BBB-' and 'BB' issue-level ratings on the company's senior unsecured notes and junior subordinated debt, respectively, and its 'A-3' short-term rating on the commercial paper (CP) program. On March 2, 2026, Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP) and EQT Infrastructure announced they were leading a consortium of investors to acquire AES through a take-private transaction for about $10.7 billion. The affirmation reflects the full-equity nature of the transaction with no incremental debt at AES or any of its subsidiaries or involve back leverage. The sponsor group has also announced that it will cease the dividends at acquisition close and implement a flexible distribution policy. Given AES' considerable capital outlay requirements to fund the development of its backlogged projects, S&P views this as credit supportive. S&P said, "Our assessment of the company's business risk remains satisfactory, although we also believe that it is improving with the increasing share of U.S.-based operations and long-term contracted renewable assets in its earnings and distribution profile. Financial structure complexity, however, remains an offset to this improvement as the size of AES' balance sheet has grown over the past few years as part of its strategic transformation. "We continue to assess the company's financial risk profile as significant, which reflects our expectation that S&P Global Ratings-adjusted debt to EBITDA and funds from operations (FFO) to debt will remain in the 3.5x-3.8x and 22%-23% range, respectively, in 2026-2028. "The stable outlook reflects our view that AES will maintain credit metrics within our forecast ranges with limited reliance on corporate debt to fund its capital projects. We also expect the company's sponsors will maintain a credit-supportive financial policy by prioritizing credit quality over near-term shareholder payouts. "We view the all-equity nature of the transaction as credit supportive. While our general expectation for acquisitions is that the sponsors will look to fund part of the purchase price by leveraging the target's balance sheet (or via back leverage), the full equity nature of this transaction is credit supportive. GIP and EQT have also indicated their desire to maintain the existing capital structure while strategically focusing on long-term value creation and financial stability. The sponsor consortium has iterated its commitment to an investment-grade rating, and we view the contemplated acquisition financing plan as a reflection of this commitment." GIP and EQT have also indicated that the dividends will be ceased as of the close of the transaction. Post acquisition, the sponsor group intends to implement a flexible dividend policy that will support the company's credit profile and growth objectives. Given that AES' existing dividend (about $550 million annually) accounts for about 40% of its free cash flow (before growth investments), the discretionary nature the dividend will provide it with considerable financial flexibility while enabling prioritization growth (or the preservation of its balance-sheet quality) over near-term shareholder payouts. The company has been unable to raise equity in the public markets due to its depressed stock price valuation, and the fact that it has been undergoing a capital-intensive portfolio transformation at the same time, the cessation of the dividend will create financial headroom, and provide it with a material and recurring source of funding without jeopardizing its credit quality. S&P said, "We expect strategic and financial policy continuity. The affirmation incorporates our expectation the sponsor group will maintain a credit-supportive financial policy and look to create long-term shareholder value via patient and prudent investments that leverage AES' highly successful and proven development track record. We believe the company will have greater financial capacity to execute on its contracted project backlog (12 gigawatts [GW]) under private ownership, as well as to pursue any further credit and equity accretive investments beyond its visible backlog. We continue to view AES' power development experience as a key competitive strength. Given this experience, as well as its strong commercial relationships and access to domestic supply chains, we think that the company is well-positioned to capitalize on growth opportunities in the power sector, which is benefitting from unprecedented tailwinds due to the buildout of energy intensive digital infrastructure. We anticipate the sponsor consortium will provide AES with the financial flexibility to navigate this industry cycle and maximize its creation of long-term and sustainable cash flows over near-term distributions. "We view joint ownership and governance favorably. Following the acquisition, AES' board will comprise members representing each of the infrastructure funds in proportion to their ownership percentages. Major decisions--such as those related to material mergers and acquisitions (M&A), leverage policy, changes to distribution policy, etc.--will require super majority approval, which will likely mitigate the potential for a single or multiple large sponsors to exert strategic and financial influence over the company. "We expect the backstop facility to provide adequate mitigation against change-of-control considerations. Several debt instruments across AES' capital structure feature change-of-control provisions, which are triggered by a ratings event and/or a change in ownership. The consortium is providing a backstop facility to cover any financial obligations at AES or its subsidiaries that may be triggered by the acquisition. We understand that if there are draws under the facility stemming from change-of-control provisions, the debt will remain at the respective entities where the provision was triggered. This mechanism will ensure that the composition of the debt (recourse versus non-recourse) across AES' capital structure remains unchanged. We expect the sponsor group will look to refinance the affected debt tranches well ahead of the backstop facility's maturity. "We think AES' business risk is improving with the deployment of U.S. renewables. Offsetting this improvement, however, is the complex financial structure at AES Clean Energy (ACE). Due to the continued development of its U.S. renewable platform, as well as its ongoing investments in U.S. utilities, AES now sources about 60% of its distributions from its U.S. operations. This is a significant expansion from 2020 when the company's U.S. assets accounted for about 38% of its total distributions. We view this shift as positive for AES, both from a jurisdictional as well as an asset-quality perspective. About 54% of the company's fleet is now renewable based (up from 37% in 2020), and it has retired or sold more than 12.3 GW of its coal-based generation since 2017. Over the long run, we believe that renewable technologies will likely benefit from more-durable and permanent policy-level support and wider commercial appeal to offtakers, especially in certain expanding sectors (e.g., technology corporates, data centers, etc.) of the economy." Most recently, AES announced that it had signed a 20-year power purchase agreement with Google for co-located power generation. To date, the company has signed agreements for nearly 12 GW of energy, of which 9 GW is directly related to hyperscalers. That said, the cost of AES' transformation has been the increasing complexity of its financial structure, particularly at ACE, which now accounts for about 26% of its total debt (recourse and non-recourse). This debt is held at various entities and ranges from construction and operating project debt to tax equity bridge loans (often aggregated in back-leveraged holdcos) and intermediate holdco debt. Given that this debt resides at multiple levels of ACE's capital structure, there are various cash traps and distribution triggers that require compliance before cash flow can move upstream to AES. This potentially increases cash flow interruption risk, a key component in our assessment of a developer's business risk profile. While the subsidiary debt is non-recourse to AES and backed mostly by high-quality assets with long-dated contracted profiles, S&P still believes this complex and opaque financial structure could lead to cash flow volatility if the assets underperform. S&P said, "We understand that the sponsor group will look to resize ACE's leverage by retaining more cash flow at the entity, which will ultimately reduce its reliance on the revolving credit facility (RCF) for its ongoing development activity. In addition, the group intends to monetize ACE's operating assets and use the proceeds to reinvest in the entity, in lieu of capital from the parent. While both actions will reduce the subsidiary's distributions to AES (relative to our previous projections), we view them as credit supportive because they will contain ACE's overall debt burden, and reduce financial risk at the entity. "If the transaction is not completed, we will likely reassess our ratings on AES. The sponsor group expects to close the transaction, which remains subject to the receipt of customary state, federal, regulatory, and shareholder approvals, toward the end of this year or in early 2027. Given the company's dividend payout requirements (as a public company), as well as its sizeable capital program, in the event the acquisition is not completed as envisioned, we will reassess AES' financial profile and credit quality. AES is committed to maintaining an investment-grade rating and has a strong track record of sustaining credit ratios relative to our expectations. However, the company's balance sheet is at capacity and that--absent this transaction--it will have to reconsider its financial and capital allocation priorities to preserve credit quality, while managing growth ambitions. "The stable outlook reflects our expectation that S&P adjusted debt to EBITDA and FFO to debt will be between 3.5x and 3.8x and 22% and 23%, respectively, in 2026-2028. As the company executes its development backlog, we expect it will largely fund its investment spending with internal proceeds and assets sales while employing a measured reliance on corporate debt. The outlook also incorporates our expectation that AES' sponsors will prudently manage its capital structure and financial policy targets will prioritize credit quality over near-term distributions." S&P could lower the rating if financial performance deteriorated such that: -- S&P adjusted FFO-to-debt fell below 20%; or -- S&P adjusted debt-to-EBITDA exceeded 4.0x. S&P said, "We would expect AES' credit ratios to weaken if its assets and subsidiaries underperform, such that their distributions decline on a sustained basis. This could be a function of operational failures (e.g., outages), weaker renewable resources, or delayed return on utility assets. We could also see credit metrics weakening if cash flows from the under-development projects were weaker than anticipated, or if the company relied heavily on corporate debt to deliver on its project pipeline. "We could consider taking a positive rating action on AES if it continues to successfully execute on its development pipeline while maintaining S&P adjusted debt to EBITDA of 3.5x or less and S&P adjusted FFO to debt of at least 25% over our forecast period. In addition, for an upgrade, we would also expect AES to maintain a robust distribution stream from its assets, as well as simplify the capital structure at ACE." AGZ PROPERTIES: Taps David A.

CAA HOLDINGS: Fitch Affirms 'B+' LongTerm IDR, Outlook Stable ------------------------------------------------------------- Fitch Ratings has affirmed the Long-Term Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) of CAA Holdings, LLC (Holdings) and Creative Artists Agency, LLC (CAA) at 'B+'. Fitch has also affirmed CAA's first lien secured debt at 'B+' with a Recovery Rating of 'RR4'. The ratings reflect CAA's solid business profile supported by diversified earnings across filmed entertainment, music and its market-leading global sports division. The sports business provides recurring, contract-based cash flows that help offset volatility in the filmed entertainment segment. The ratings remain constrained by weak Fitch-calculated EBITDA leverage and coverage metrics. Fitch believes CAA's sports-led growth and a rising mix of higher-margin revenue should support moderate margin improvement over the medium term as the portfolio shifts further toward sports and international markets. Key Rating Drivers Leading Position in Fragmented Industry: CAA's business profile benefits from its leading market position in the fragmented talent management industry, where a few large players compete for top talent and share. Fitch believes the company's scale and global reach positions it to capture incremental share as the sector remains relationship driven. The company's revenue prospects are supported by strong demand for high-end talent and growth in sports. CAA should also benefit from the global monetization of leading talent and favorable secular trends, although film and TV visibility remains partly constrained by lower industry output. High Leverage from Acquisition-Driven Strategy: Fitch-calculated EBITDA leverage for fiscal 2025 was slightly higher than forecast due to incremental term loans used for debt-funded acquisitions, including the $100 million add-on funded in January 2026. Fitch assumes CAA will continue to pursue accretive, debt-funded acquisitions over the rating horizon. Leverage may exceed the company's net leverage target following acquisitions and/or shareholder distributions, but CAA has a track record of returning to its net leverage target within a reasonable time frame. Secular Demand Shifts: CAA remains exposed to volatility in filmed entertainment, as studios and global streamers continue to rationalize content spend. These pressures can weigh on production volume, pricing power, and traditional commission revenue within film and television. Fitch believes this risk is mitigated by CAA's roster of A-list talent, its diversified service mix, including its international reach, and continued expansion in sports. Consistent Capital Allocation Policy: CAA targets net leverage of 4.0x-4.5x, with the potential to operate above the range temporarily to accommodate debt funded acquisitions and/or shareholder distributions. Fitch's base case assumes capital allocation (including opportunistic M&A) remains broadly consistent with this target range and that excess FCF is directed toward debt reduction and/or distributions. Adequate Liquidity Position: Fitch expects pre-dividend FCF to rise over the rating horizon on revenue and EBITDA growth. FCF will be constrained in FY26 by higher capex and interest expense but should improve as capex moderates in fiscal 2027 toward pre-2025 levels. Liquidity is supported by $402 million of cash as of September 2025 and $401 million of revolver availability. The proceeds from the incremental $100 million term loan, funded in January 2026, was utilized for a tuck-in acquisition. Diversified and Broad Revenue Base: CAA benefits from a broad client roster and multiple revenue streams across talent representation and brand advisory. The music and sports divisions provide relatively stable, contracted revenues that help offset volatility in the filmed entertainment segment. In addition, CAA receives residual payments from negotiated client projects, offering recurring revenue visibility and modest downside protection across cycles. Cross-Segment Synergies: Fitch views CAA's ability to leverage its representation business with its brand advisory, partnerships, content, and licensing/consumer products capabilities as a key differentiator in attracting and retaining clients. This cross segment approach enhances client stickiness and strengthens CAA's competitive positioning. However, guild actions and evolving representation rules could affect contract structures and cross-selling economics. Extensive Ecosystem and Key Resources: CAA's business profile benefits from a broad ecosystem of in-house expertise, strategic relationships and industry insight that supports clients' careers and brand development across platforms. The agency represents a deep roster across entertainment and sports including actors, directors, writers, producers, musicians, comedians, authors, athletes, coaches, broadcasters and teams. Fitch believes its team-based model, with close client engagement across agents and executives, supports service quality and retention. Peer Analysis CAA's 'B+' IDR reflects its market position as a leading talent agency, its diversified revenue base and its robust EBITDA margins, balanced by the company's elevated leverage and temporarily weakened coverage metric. Fitch compares CAA to issuers in the diversified business service industry which have similar client representation and/or commission-based revenue business models, but with different end markets and service offerings. CAA has a significantly larger scale compared to Navacord Corp. (B/Stable), a large property and casualty insurance broker and benefit provider in Canada. Navacord's EBITDA and FCF margins are higher than CAA's, but its leverage and interest coverage are weaker. In addition, CAA benefits from leading market share and global operations compared to Navacord's market leadership in one region. Navacord is not a direct peer to CAA, but both issuers operate commission-based business models. Fitch’s Key Rating-Case Assumptions - The base case reflects the approximate midpoint of management's guidance that Fitch believes is achievable; - Fitch assumes mid-single-digit (MSD) revenue growth throughout the forecast period (FY26-FY29), low single-digit growth in the filmed entertainment segment reflecting continued demand for A-list talent by streamers and studios, MSD growth in sports due to expansion in sports' rights and commercial models for sports leagues and teams, and MSD growth in the music segment fueled by continued growth in live events globally; - EBITDA margins stay in the mid-20% range throughout the forecast horizon. Margin improvement is expected from cost management of compensation expenses, offset by a modest increase in operating expenses; - Neutral to positive FCF generation is anticipated throughout the forecast accounting for interest payments, distributions to members, taxes, and discretionary shareholder distributions; - Excess FCF will be directed to shareholder distributions; - Floating rate debt is modeled on secured overnight financing rate. Corporate Rating Tool Inputs and Scores Fitch scored the issuer using its Corporate Rating Tool to produce a Standalone Credit Profile (SCP) of 'b+.' No adjustments were made to the SCP, resulting in an IDR of 'B+'. Recovery Analysis The recovery analysis assumes CAA would be considered a going concern (GC) in bankruptcy and that the company would be reorganized rather than liquidated. Fitch has assumed a 10% administrative claim. Fitch's recovery analysis estimates a GC enterprise value (EV) for a reorganized firm of approximately $1.6 billion. The GC LTM EBITDA has been updated to $240 million from $200 million to incorporate incremental EBITDA from recent acquisitions and margin expansion from CAA's cost management. The GC EBITDA reflects a situation where CAA experiences a mass client exodus to competitors, resulting in declining commission revenues. This could be driven by several factors such as the exit of key employees to competitors, union-led negotiations that result in unfavorable changes to contract terms for talent agencies, and legal or regulatory edicts that mandate lower caps on industry commission rates and limit the number and types of clients that an agency can represent at any given time. These changes would lead to a steep decline in commission revenue, depressed EBITDA and an unsustainable capital structure. An EV multiple of 6.5x EBITDA is applied to the going concern EBITDA to calculate a post-reorganization EV, which is validated by historic public company trading multiples, industry M&A and past reorganization multiples Fitch has seen across various industries. It also incorporates CAA's projected revenue from residual contracts, CAA's leading market position and diversified revenue base, and CAA's customer contracts and relationships. Fitch assumes a fully drawn revolving credit facility of $450 million in its recovery analysis, as credit revolvers are tapped while companies are under distress. Applying the Fitch-estimated EV of the business, Fitch arrived at a rating of 'B+' on the first lien secured facilities with a Recovery Rating of 'RR4'. RATING SENSITIVITIES Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative Rating Action/Downgrade - Aggressive debt-funded acquisitions and/or shareholder distributions that result in EBITDA leverage sustained above 5.5x; - EBITDA interest coverage below 3.5x; - Sustained weakness in the filmed entertainment segment with continued revenue and margin pressures. Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive Rating Action/Upgrade - EBITDA leverage below 4.5x, combined with strong revenue growth and expansion of EBITDA margins and FCF margins; - EBITDA interest coverage above 4.5x. Liquidity and Debt Structure CAA's liquidity comprises $402 million of cash and equivalents as of September 2025 and $401 million of undrawn revolver capacity. Additional sources of liquidity include proceeds from the $100 million incremental term loan funded in January 2026, used to fund a tuck-in acquisition. The company has $2.6 billion in term loans outstanding, including the $100 million incremental term loan that matures in 2031. Fitch considers refinancing risks manageable, given the earliest maturity is in 2030. Issuer Profile CAA is one of the world's leading entertainment and sports intermediaries, with business activities that span traditional talent representation, media rights, sponsorship sales and commercial endorsements among other services.

COLUMBIAN MUTUAL: Plan Rehabilitation Hearing Set for May 4 ----------------------------------------------------------- Kaitlin Asrow, Acting Superintendent of Financial Services of the State of New York ("Superintendent"), as the court-appointed rehabilitator ("Rehabilitator") of Columbian Mutual Life Insurance Company ("CML"), filed Plan of Rehabilitation for Columbian Mutual Life Insurance Company dated Dec.12, 2025 ("Plan"). Pursuant to the Supreme Court of the State of New York - County of Broome, the Court will commence a hearing to consider approval of the Plan on May 4, 2026, 10:30 a.m., before the Court located at 92 Court Street, Binghamton, New York 13901. The Rehabilitator seeks approval of the Plan to remove the causes and conditions that made the Rehabilitation Proceeding necessary. This will be accomplished by a series of transactions under the Plan for acquisition of CML by JAB Insurance US Holdings Inc. ("purchaser"), in exchange for the purchaser making a financial contribution of not less than $100 million to CML and its subsidiary Columbian Life Insurance Company ("CLIC"), which is currently in rehabilitation proceedings in Illinois. The contribution will be allocated between CML and CLIC, part of which will be return for the issuance of CML's new capital stock to purchaser, and will recapitalize both companies and strengthen their balance sheets. The plan is focused on protecting CML policyholders' insurance benefits. Critically, the plan will not result in the alteration of any insurance benefits or the insurance terms of the policyholders' policies, such as premiums, coverage and claims. However, if the plan is not approved and CML is required to convert to a liquidation proceedings, policyholder insurance benefits could be jeopardized. Under the plan, policyholders' ownership rights and interests and other equity interests in CML, which the Rehabilitator believes do not have any value, will be extinguished and discharged, and the purchaser will be come the owner of CML's newly issued capital stock. In addition, the plan provides certain releases, including the release of purchaser and its affiliates from any claims in connection with the transaction, including the extinguishment and discharge of policyholders' equity interests. In addition, the plan will not impair the rights of creditors, venders, and other contractual counterparties. All such claims will be processed and paid in the ordinary course of CML's business. If the plan is approved by the Court at the plan approval hearing and consummated, CML will emerge as a recapitalized insurance company capable of meeting its policy obligations. Accordingly, the Rehabilitator submits that the plan is in the best interests of policyholders and CML's other stakeholders. The plan rehabilitation proceeding can be accessed at https://www.proxydocs.com/ColumbianMutualLife Any person wishing to Object to the approval of the plan must file before March 30, 2026.

The final DIP order is available at https://urlcurt.com/u?l=MYjNIE from PacerMonitor.com. The Debtors own and operate a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate, including hotel, retail, office, and industrial properties. Their holdings include a 122-acre ultra-luxury mixed-use development on the border of Paradise Valley and Scottsdale, Arizona, featuring hospitality, residential, and retail components anchored by The Ritz-Carlton, Paradise Valley. The Debtors also own and operate multiple commercial and industrial properties in El Paso and Socorro. While these properties are financed by secured lenders in varying amounts, they retain significant demonstrated equity value. On November 4, 2025, the Debtors filed for bankruptcy with DIP financing from Sandton, which the court approved on an interim basis. The facility required the Debtors to grant Sandton final priming liens on certain properties, including five land parcels in Paradise Valley, Arizona. The Debtors believe the Sandton facility complies with Section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code but recognize that a priming dispute with pre-petition lender Madison Realty Capital L.P. would be costly and uncertain. They engaged in mediation with Madison while exploring other financing, ultimately securing committed junior financing from B.H. Capital Ventures, backed only by liens on select commercial properties in Texas. B.H. Capital Ventures, as DIP lender, is represented by: Rebecca L. Matthews, Esq.

FIRST BRANDS: Workforce Reductions Begin as Sale Prospects Dim -------------------------------------------------------------- Alicia McElhaney of The Wall Street Journal reports that First Brands Group LLC disclosed Monday, February 23, 2026 that it could not obtain financing or a buyer to continue most of its enterprise-wide operations, triggering layoffs in its aftermarket divisions. The company said several interested buyers abruptly withdrew or limited their bids to select units. According to a letter sent to employees, while certain outside parties agreed to finance specific segments, no lender or buyer stepped forward to fund the entire company. The supplier has been teetering near liquidation, relying on temporary funding from automotive customers after traditional lenders pulled back. First Brands entered Chapter 11 in September 2025 amid mounting scrutiny over accounting irregularities, including double-pledged receivables and fabricated invoices. The misconduct only fully came to light after the filing, and the $1.1 billion DIP financing facility has since run dry, the report states. Customer lifelines from Ford Motor Co., General Motors, and Harley-Davidson are keeping original-equipment operations afloat on a week-to-week basis. However, broader sale efforts have stalled. Judge Christopher Lopez ordered court-supervised mediation with lenders to conclude by midday Tuesday, February 26, 2026.

GENESIS ENERGY: Fitch Rates Proposed Sr. Unsecured Notes 'BB-' -------------------------------------------------------------- Fitch Ratings has assigned Genesis Energy, LP's (Genesis) proposed senior unsecured notes a 'BB-' rating with a Recovery Rating of 'RR4'. The notes will be co-issued by Genesis Energy Finance Corp. Genesis intends to use the net proceeds along with revolver draws to fully redeem its outstanding 2028 notes. This transaction is leverage neutral and does not have a meaningful impact on Genesis' credit profile. Fitch currently rates Genesis' Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) 'BB-' with a Stable Rating Outlook. Genesis' ratings reflect relatively stable cash flow generation and capital allocation policy focused on debt reduction. However, it remains exposed to volume risk. Fitch expects leverage and interest coverage to improve but remain weak for the rating category. Fitch has reviewed preliminary terms for the transaction and assumes no material variations in the final terms. Key Rating Drivers Improving Financial Profile: Fitch anticipates Genesis' leverage will improve to around 5.5x over the medium term through EBITDA growth and debt reduction. Volumes from Shenandoah and Salamanca upstream developments in the Gulf of America (GOA) are likely to ramp up after a successful start in 2025. Growth at Shenandoah and new sub-sea tiebacks or development wells will outweigh slower volume ramp up at Salamanca and slowdown at legacy fields. Potential Venezuelan supply and a widening heavy-light crude differential could further support Genesis' Marine Transportation and Sulfur Services segments. Fitch expects the company's financial profile to improve but remain weak for the rating category. High debt costs, including preferreds, will pressure coverage metrics but should ease as preferreds are repaid. Capital Allocation Policy: Genesis plans to use FCF mainly for debt repayment, including the 11.24% class A preferred units. Consistent paydown of preferreds will reduce cost of capital and accelerate FCF generation, aiding further deleveraging. Genesis is unlikely to pursue capital-intensive growth projects, M&A or asset sales, focusing instead on producer tiebacks to existing production facilities that are connected to its pipeline infrastructure. This will support earnings stability and FCF generation. In addition, Fitch expects Genesis to prioritize balance sheet strength over shareholder returns. Stable Cash Flow Generation: Fitch expects nearly 90% of Genesis' run-rate EBITDA to be generated from fixed-fee acreage and/or volume-dedicated contracts with creditworthy counterparties. Around 15%-20% will be from revenue assurance type minimum volume commitment (MVC) contracts, exposing the company to volumetric risks. However, Genesis' business diversity and presence in the GOA will lead to lower volume volatility. About 10% will come from commodity price-exposed activities, most of which will contain short-term hedges. Supportive Business Fundamentals: The GOA includes conventional wells including high pressure high temperature wells with lower decline rates than shale and low operating costs. These developments are capital-intensive, require extensive expertise and have long lead times, creating high barriers to entry. E&P companies plan offshore developments based on long-term commodity prices, ensuring volume resiliency to short-term price disruptions. Fitch expects Genesis' middle-aged marine fleet to have strong day rates. This is due to the scarcity of Jones Act vessels plus high utilization rates across marine transportation and any remaining businesses due to robust PADD 3 refinery utilization rates. Relationship with Customers: Most of Genesis' customers are highly creditworthy, and it has maintained long-term relationships with them. The top 10 customers on Genesis' largest segment, i.e., Offshore Pipeline, are mostly investment-grade, contributing over 75% of this segment's margin, and have life-of-lease acreage dedications spanning 30+ years. The capital and technical expertise required for offshore developments ensure E&P companies in the region are well-capitalized and creditworthy. This reduces their vulnerability to short-term price and sector downturns. Customers in other segments are also creditworthy and maintain a long-term relationship with Genesis. Peer Analysis Kinetik Holdings, L.P. (Kinetik; BB+/Stable) is the peer most comparable to Genesis. Both are regionally focused midstream companies with business driven by crude oil production dynamics, high volumetric exposure, and low volume volatility. Kinetik is a Permian-focused midstream issuer. Genesis is smaller in size but is slightly more diversified. The Permian offers low breakeven costs and production resiliency but has higher decline rates, requiring frequent drilling. Conversely, the Gulf has higher new development costs and longer lead times but benefits from lower decline rates and longer well life. Kinetik's robust hedging program ensures up to 85% of cash flows from fixed-fee contracts with mostly investment-grade customers. While most of its business is exposed to volumetric risks, its long-haul pipelines provide meaningful revenue assurance through long-term take-or-pay contracts. Kinetik's leverage, which Fitch expects to range between 4.0x and 4.3x, is lower than Genesis'. Genesis' smaller size, cash flow profile with relatively modest long-term MVCs, basin economics of the GOA versus the Permian, and higher leverage results in a two-notch lower rating. Fitch’s Key Rating-Case Assumptions - Fitch's oil and gas price deck; - Base interest rate for the credit facilities reflects Fitch's "Global Economic Outlook"; - Oil and gas activity levels on the U.S. Gulf Coast and in the GOA consistent with Fitch's base case for oil and gas prices; - Net distributions from joint ventures and minority interests received in accordance with the partnership agreement; - Common unit distributions remain consistent with the current levels and no material unit repurchases for most of the forecast years; - No additional M&A, asset divestitures, business exits, or large growth projects over the forecast period. Corporate Rating Tool Inputs and Scores Fitch scored the issuer as follows, using its Corporate Rating Tool (CRT) to produce the Standalone Credit Profile (SCP): - Business and financial profile factors (assessment, relative importance): Management (bbb-, Moderate), Sector Characteristics (bb+, Moderate), Market & Competitive Positioning (bbb-, Moderate), Diversification and Asset Quality (bbb-, Moderate), Company Operational Characteristics (bb, Higher), Profitability (bbb-, Lower), Financial Structure (b+, Higher), and Financial Flexibility (bb-, Moderate). - The quantitative financial subfactors are based on custom CRT financial period parameters: 10% weight for the historical year 2024, 10% for the forecast year 2025, 40% for the forecast year 2026 and 40% for the forecast year 2027. - The Governance Impact assessment of 'Good' results in no adjustment. - The Operating Environment Impact assessment of 'aa-' results in no adjustment. - The SCP is 'bb-'. To derive the IDR: - No adjustments made to SCP resulting in an IDR of 'BB-'. RATING SENSITIVITIES Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative Rating Action/Downgrade - EBITDA leverage expected to sustain above 5.8x; - Sustained high capital expenditures or a change in financial policy that reduces Genesis' credit quality; - M&A, asset sales, or large growth projects not funded in a balanced manner and/or meaningfully increase the overall business risk. Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive Rating Action/Upgrade - An upgrade is not likely in the near term due to Genesis' high cost of capital. However, a positive rating action/upgrade could occur if Genesis' cost of debt reduces significantly and EBITDA leverage sustains below 4.8x; - Meaningful improvements in business risk including significant reduction in volume exposure due to, but not limited to, material growth in the proportion of cash flows derived from long-term revenue assurance type take-or-pay or MVC contracts. Liquidity and Debt Structure As of Dec. 31, 2025, Genesis had about $795 million of liquidity available consisting of roughly $6.4 million cash and $789 million available under its $800 million senior secured credit facility (net of letters of credit), subject to covenant compliance. Genesis can increase the revolver size by $150 million subject to certain conditions. The revolver matures on Sept. 1, 2028, subject to extension at Genesis' request for one additional year on up to two occasions and subject to certain conditions. The revolver has a springing maturity if more than $150 million of the 7.750% senior unsecured notes, due Feb. 1, 2028, remain outstanding as of Nov. 2, 2027. If this condition is met, the revolver will mature on Nov. 2, 2027. The covenants on the credit facility permit a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 5.5x, a senior secured leverage ratio of 2.5x, and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.25x for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2026, through Dec. 31, 2026, and 2.5x thereafter. As of Dec. 31, 2025, Genesis was compliant with all the covenants, and Fitch expects the company to remain compliant with the covenants throughout the forecast period. Issuer Profile Genesis Energy, L.P. is a publicly traded master limited partnership which owns and operates offshore crude oil and natural gas pipelines in the Gulf, along with marine transportation and other onshore midstream assets along the U.S. Gulf Coast. Summary of Financial Adjustments According to Fitch's "Corporate Hybrids Treatment and Notching Criteria," Fitch considers Genesis' class A convertible preferred units as 100% debt, which is included in the leverage calculation. There is a first-lien secured credit facility at one of Genesis' joint ventures, Poseidon Oil Pipeline Company, LLC, in which Genesis has 64% ownership interest. The debt is non-recourse to the owners, and due to certain conditions in the joint venture agreement involving major decision it is not consolidated in Genesis' financial statements. Fitch has excluded this debt from its leverage calculations. Fitch's calculation of adjusted EBITDA excludes equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates and includes cash distributions from those unconsolidated affiliates. The values in the above sensitivities and other metric values in this press release calculated by Fitch are different from management's and the bank's calculations.

On February 19, 2026, the Debtors filed a motion seeking up to $80 million in priming DIP financing from JMB Capital Partners Lending, LLC to fund operations and close the sale to 101 W. State Street Holdings LLC. At that time, the JMB proposal was the only actionable option and was considered critical to avoid disruption. The following day, however, the Debtors received a competing proposal from their existing secured lenders offering substantially similar terms with improved economics and without the need for a contentious priming fight. After intensive negotiations involving the existing lenders, JMB, and consultation with the official committee of unsecured creditors, the Debtors determined that the revised proposal from the existing lenders represented the most favorable and value-preserving alternative. As a result, the prior JMB proposal was withdrawn. The new financing is a superpriority, senior secured, non-amortizing term loan DIP facility of up to $105 million (including amounts to refinance the current DIP facility), with up to $80 million available upon approval and an additional $25 million potential upsize to address contingencies, including issues related to the Bold Quail settlement. The facility would refinance approximately $35 million outstanding under the existing $30 million junior DIP facility approved in August 2025, which has since matured and is subject to a termination notice and carveout trigger. The DIP lenders -- Markglen, Inc., OHI Mezz Lender LLC, and CPE 88988 LLC -- agented by Welltower OP LLC, would receive superpriority administrative claims and priming liens on substantially all of the Debtors' assets (subject to limited exceptions such as Chapter 5 causes of action and commercial tort claims), along with junior liens on certain collateral already subject to permitted priority liens. All DIP obligations are due and payable in full in cash on the earliest of the following: i. September 30, 2026; ii. The effective date of any Chapter 11 plan with respect to the Borrowers iii. The consummation of the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the loan parties pursuant to 11 U.S.C. section 363; iv. The date of the acceleration of the DIP loans and the termination of the DIP commitments following the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default in accordance with the DIP documents; v. Dismissal or conversion of any Chapter 11 case into a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, and the appointment of a trustee or examiner in each case of a Debtor or series of Debtors with an aggregate enterprise value exceeding $5 million; and vi. 45 days after the filing of the DIP motion (or such later date as agreed to by the DIP lenders). The financing is intended to provide sufficient liquidity to sustain operations, pay employees and vendors, administer the Chapter 11 cases, repay the existing DIP facility, and bridge to the closing of the court-approved asset sale. The sale, approved on January 26 requires the purchaser to obtain committed financing within specified deadlines and is subject to regulatory approvals, with an outside closing date of June 30 (extendable to September 30). Because the case timeline has significantly extended beyond initial projections, professional fees and administrative costs have increased substantially, creating risk of administrative insolvency absent additional financing. As adequate protection, the pre-petition creditors will be granted replacement liens (to the extent of any diminution in value), superpriority administrative expense claims, specified cash interest and receivables-based payments (where applicable), fee reimbursements, and a carefully structured lien priority scheme that preserves intercreditor rights while permitting use of cash collateral and implementation of the DIP facility.

HAWTHORNE RACE: Chicago Horse Racing Venue Seeks Ch. 11 Bankruptcy ------------------------------------------------------------------ Miranda Davis of Bloomberg Law reports that Hawthorne Race Course Inc., a historic Chicago racetrack, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Friday, February 27, 2026, after reports surfaced of bounced checks and unpaid purses to horse owners. In its filing, the company reported assets ranging from $50 million to $100 million and liabilities between $100 million and $500 million. Founded in 1891, Hawthorne is the last racetrack operating in northern Illinois, following Arlington Park's closure in 2021. The track's financial instability prompted Illinois regulators to suspend its license for harness racing last January 2026, the report states. The bankruptcy reflects ongoing struggles within the U.S. horse racing industry, where declining attendance and rising operating expenses have created financial pressure for long-standing tracks, according to Bloomberg. About Hawthorne Race Course Inc. Hawthorne Race Course Inc. operates a historic racetrack that provides Thoroughbred and Standardbred racing events along with off-track betting throughout Chicago.

HERTZ GLOBAL: S&P Downgrades ICR to 'B-', Outlook Negative ---------------------------------------------------------- S&P Global Ratings lowered its issuer rating on Hertz Global Holdings Inc. to 'B-' from 'B', and revised its liquidity assessment to less than adequate, from adequate. S&P also lowered the issue-level rating on senior secured facilities of its major operating subsidiary, The Hertz Corp., to 'B-' from 'B', and on its senior unsecured notes to 'CCC' from 'CCC+'. The negative outlook reflects S&P's view that credit metrics will remain weak in 2026 and that improvement in 2027 will be dependent on demand conditions remaining steady and the speed and success of the company's various profitability initiatives. S&P said, "Hertz Global's financial performance in 2025 was weaker than our expectations, amid elevated vehicle recalls, rental pricing pressure, and volatility in used-vehicle prices throughout the year. "While the company has shown some progress on initiatives to enhance profitability, we expect credit metrics to remain weak in 2026, as financial benefits of those initiatives materialize gradually. We also forecast liquidity cushion to decline somewhat over the next year amid higher expected spending toward fleet growth and some operational cash burn., with initiatives to enhance liquidity likely resulting in a further increase in its debt and interest burden. "The downgrade indicates that S&P Global Ratings' expectation of improvement in Hertz's profitability will likely take longer than we previously expected. Hertz's profitability and cash flow generation in 2025, although better than 2024, were hurt by a somewhat uncertain rental pricing environment, driven in part by periods of industry vehicle oversupply relative to demand, and elevated vehicle recalls in the second half of the year, reducing vehicle rental days. Additionally, there was some volatility in depreciation per unit per month (DPU) amid ongoing fleet rotation during the first half of the year and subsequent tariff-related disruptions. This followed very weak financial performance in 2024, amid declining residual values, electric vehicle (EV) related charges, and an accelerated fleet rotation strategy. "We currently expect the company will report a pre-tax net loss in 2026 as well, albeit lower than 2025 levels (pre-tax loss of $830 million), supported by our expectation for air travel demand and used car prices to remain relatively steady throughout the year. However, 2026 will remain a transition year for Hertz, as it continues to execute several initiatives underway, including enhancing revenue management systems, diversifying its revenue streams into off-airport and rideshare businesses, and improving customer experience. Conversely, we expect some benefits to be realized from the company's continued focus on optimizing its fleet and enhancing fleet utilization. However, additional financial benefits from the initiatives will likely be slow to occur through 2026 and beyond, given their wide scope, while earnings will remain burdened by high interest expenses. "We now assess Hertz's liquidity as less than adequate. Our previous liquidity assessment of 'adequate' reflected Hertz's ability to maintain its liquidity position (cash and availability under its revolving credit facility) above $1 billion throughout 2025, which, in our view, provided the company with good flexibility around implementing its profitability initiatives. However, weaker operating performance in the fourth quarter of 2025, a $340 million litigation settlement expected in the first quarter of 2026, a $335 million step down in the size of its revolving credit facility after second quarter 2026 (partly offset by recently executed approx. $200 million of standby letters of credit capacity, which should free up revolver capacity), and expectations for investments toward fleet growth in 2026 after shrinking its fleet somewhat in 2025, are all expected to hurt the company's liquidity position. As a result, we think liquidity sources over the next 12 months will be less than 1.2x its uses over the next 12 months. "In our view, incremental debt issuances would enhance Hertz's liquidity position but result in weaker credit metrics. On its 2025 year-end earnings call, the company announced its intention to raise additional financing to enhance its liquidity cushion. Some of the options outlined include raising additional first-lien corporate debt, more capacity under its ABS structures, and sale-leaseback transactions involving some of its real estate facilities. We believe Hertz will likely be successful in executing some of these initiatives, which would position it better to pursue its various strategic (fleet and profitability) initiatives, making it less vulnerable to the risk of having to sell assets to generate liquidity. However, we also expect additional debt and interest expenses from any near-term issuances would further weaken credit metrics. Assuming Hertz acted on some of these initiatives, management expects liquidity availability to dip below $1 billion in the second quarter of 2026, before improving above $1 billion by end of the year. "Nevertheless, we note that increasing leverage levels, and the largely secured capital structure, make the company vulnerable to sudden declines in vehicle prices and more broadly to capital market conditions. The company also has sizeable upcoming debt maturities, particularly in 2028 and 2029, and additional delays with improving its profitability levels will result in higher refinancing risks associated with those facilities. "We forecast credit metrics to improve somewhat through 2027 but remain weaker than historical levels. We expect Hertz's ability to reduce debt will be constrained in the near term due to weaker earnings. Therefore, we expect leverage to remain elevated, with debt to capital at 100%-105% through 2027 (compared with 102.4% in 2025). This is meaningfully higher than historical levels, with the company's debt to capital averaging 89% in the decade leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic. "We expect EBIT margins to improve modestly to around 10% through 2027 from 4.9% in 2025, mainly because of improved revenue generation and somewhat lower vehicle depreciation and operating costs. However, we also expect debt and interest expenses to increase steadily in the period, amid higher financing needs. "Therefore, through 2027, we expect EBIT interest coverage to improve modestly but remain below 1x through 2027 (0.3x in 2025), and funds from operations (FFO) to debt to be in the 7%-10% range through 2027, compared with 6.8% in 2025. In our view, the extent of improvement will depend on macroeconomic conditions and used-vehicle pricing trends remaining largely steady, as well as successfully executing management's profitability initiatives." S&P Global Ratings currently expects resilient air travel demand in 2026. S&P's expectation is that air travel demand in North America and Europe will remain steady this year despite continued macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, as consumers continue to prioritize spending on experiences such as travel. However, if economic uncertainty persists and consumer sentiment weakens, they could hurt demand for air travel. S&P expects some tariff-related uncertainty over vehicle costs to persist in 2026. Hertz's DPU per month was elevated in the first quarter of 2025 due to an accelerated fleet rotation announced in 2024. Subsequently, tariff announcements provided some short-term benefits to used-vehicle prices, contributing to somewhat lower fleet costs in the second and third quarters. However, this benefit faded in the fourth quarter as some of the tariff-driven uplift waned. S&P's forecast assumes relatively steady used-vehicle prices in 2026, as the supply of two- to four-year old vehicles has been improving but remains tight, although those prices remain sensitive to consumer sentiment. S&P also expects new vehicle prices to remain largely steady in 2026, providing some near-term visibility into car rental companies' fleet acquisition costs. However, continued tariff-related volatility could raise costs for these companies, add uncertainty to their fleet management strategies, and hamper their ability to effectively manage residual risk. Prolonged tariffs on autos and auto parts will also raise maintenance expenses. The rating continues to reflect Hertz's market position as one of the three largest global car rental companies. Hertz operates at more than 10,000 locations in about 160 countries. However, despite the concentrated market positions, this remains a highly competitive industry, with exposure to cyclical demand trends. Still, unlike most other travel-related industries, car rental companies can flex their fleets by selling vehicles to align their fleet with demand, which gives them some financial flexibility. S&P said, "The negative outlook reflects our view that credit metrics will remain weak in 2026 and that metric improvement will depend on demand conditions remaining steady and the speed and success of the company's various profitability initiatives. We think the company will raise additional liquidity through the year to improve cushion as it prepares for fleet growth into 2027 and beyond. However, this will likely lead to higher debt and interest expenses, resulting in weaker credit metrics until the profitability from those investments is realized." S&P could lower its rating on Hertz in the next year if: -- Weak operating performance, increased competition, or a continued decline in used car prices results in EBIT interest coverage remaining well below 1x while debt to capital remains above 90%; -- Hertz's liquidity position deteriorates beyond S&P's current expectations; or -- The company pursues a transaction that S&P views as equivalent to a default. S&P said, "We could revise our rating outlook on Hertz to stable if we expect EBIT interest coverage to improve close to 1x or debt to capital to improve to below 90% and the company's liquidity cushion improves."

NEW YORK BEACH: Lender Seeks Chapter 11 Trustee Appointment ----------------------------------------------------------- Carver Federal Savings Bank asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York to authorize the appointment of a trustee to take over the Chapter 11 cases of New York Beach Club, Ltd. and affiliated debtor, Ocean Blvd., LLC. Carver holds a blanket lien on two commercial mortgages that encumbers the Debtors' real and personal property located at 1751 Ocean Boulevard, Atlantic Beach, New York. In its motion, the lender alleged that Alexander Jacobson, the shareholder who remains in control of the Debtors, violated multiple orders in the foreclosure action it filed with the Office of the Clerk of Nassau County by continuing to collect membership funds. It believes approximately $900,000 in membership funds have been collected. Carver emphasized the gravity of Mr. Jacobson's conduct, stating that numerous parties have been and will continue to be harmed absent the appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee. He argued that the alleged self-dealing, dishonesty, and mismanagement warrant placing the Debtors' operations under the control of a trustee. There are three categories of creditors in the Debtors' cases according to Carver: the secured claim of the lender against all of the Debtors' assets; the $5 million unsecured guaranty claim of Newtek Small Business Finance, LLC; and the collective claims of Beach Club Members. The lender argued that a trustee is needed to investigate any transfers from the Debtors to or for the benefit of Newtek Small Business Finance and New York Equestrian Center, Ltd., and to determine whether such transfers constitute fraudulent conveyances. The lender further argued that the funds related to those claims were collected in direct violation of multiple court orders concerning the Beach Club Members, raising questions about Mr. Jacobson's personal liability to those members and his ability to act in the best interests of the Debtors' estate. Carver is represented by: Cullen and Dykman, LLP Matthew G. Roseman, Esq. Kelly McNamee, Esq. 333 Earle Ovington Boulevard, 2nd Fl.

POSIGEN PBC: Court Confirms Joint Chapter 11 Plan ------------------------------------------------- Judge Christopher Lopez of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas approved the Disclosure Statement and confirmed the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of PosiGen PBC and its affiliated debtors. As shared by the Troubled Company Reporter, PosiGen PBC and its affiliated debtors submitted a First Amended Combined Disclosure Statement and Joint Chapter 11 Plan dated January 23, 2026. The Plan is a liquidating plan. The Debtors also intend to sell the "Sale Assets", which represent substantially all of their assets, which primarily include (1) inventory, (2) "work in progress" Solar Systems, and (3) certain Causes of Action, as set forth herein. The Transaction Approval Orders contemplate that the DIP Lenders will credit bid their DIP Claims (subject to the terms and conditions of a mutually acceptable Asset Purchase Agreement) in exchange for the Sale Assets, subject to the Debtors' ability to pursue any higher and better alternative offer made that would provide for the repayment of the DIP Claims in full in cash. The proposed Settlement and this Plan provides for the creation of the Plan Trust and appointment of an independent trustee as Plan Administrator to oversee the distribution of proceeds from the sale and monetization of the remaining assets of the Debtors as of the Effective Date. Upon the occurrence of the Effective Date, the Plan Trust will be funded with at least $2,000,000 of proceeds from the Debtors' proposed DIP Facility, as well as any other Cash on hand of the Debtors as of the Effective Date (other than the funds held in the Administrative Fee Escrow Account), and the DIP Lenders will receive the DIP Lender Plan Trust Interests as partial consideration therefore. As of the Petition Date, the Debtors have $208 million in principal amount of funded debt obligations, 56% of which is secured and 44% of which is unsecured. On Dec. 24, 2025, the Debtors filed the Transaction Approval Motion seeking approval of, and authorization to enter into, (1) a settlement of disputes with respect to the Debtors' ownership and use of cash and the Debtors' and the Project Companies' ownership of certain Solar Systems, (2) an up to $43.6 million debtor-in possession financing facility to fund the Chapter 11 Cases and implementation of the settlement transactions, (3) detailed steps and requirements governing the transition of the Debtors' servicing, operations, maintenance, fund administration, and customer care functions for the majority of the Debtors' and the Project Companies' customers to certain third parties, (4) the sale of substantially all of the Debtors' assets to the DIP Lenders through a proposed credit bid of the entire amount of the DIP Loans, (5) procedures for certain non-Debtor entities to negotiate and enter into settlement agreements with the Debtors' Channel Partners who are responsible for completing "work-in progress" Solar Systems, and (6) funding for the Plan Trust to provide treatment of unsecured Claims under this Plan (collectively, the "Transactions"). The Debtors sought authority, under the Transaction Approval Motion, to sell substantially all of their assets, subject to certain exclusions, to the DIP Lenders or, in the event a bidder submits a higher or otherwise better offer for the Sale Assets that would pay off the DIP Obligations in full, such other bidder. Taken together, the Sale Transaction, the Transition, and the Channel Partner Settlements will enable the Debtors to transition their business to a third party in an orderly manner that preserves continuity of service for customers and repay the DIP Obligations, either through consummation of the Sale Transaction in accordance with the DIP Credit Bid or, if the DIP Lenders are not the highest or otherwise best bidders, in cash. As part of the Settlement, each of the DIP Lenders has agreed in principle, subject to entry of the Transaction Approval Orders, to credit bid the entire amount of its DIP Claims in exchange for the Sale Assets (the "DIP Credit Bid"), subject to the terms and conditions of a mutually acceptable asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"). Class 6-A consists of any Prepetition June Bridge Loan Claims against PosiGen, PBC. On the Effective Date, each Holder of an Allowed Prepetition June Bridge Loan Claim against PosiGen, PBC shall receive on account of such Allowed Claim its Pro Rata share of the PBC Plan Trust Interests. Class 6-A is Impaired under the Plan. Class 7-A consists of any Prepetition July Bridge Loan Claims against PosiGen, PBC. On the Effective Date, each Holder of an Allowed Prepetition July Bridge Loan Claim against PosiGen, PBC shall receive (1) on account of its Allowed Secured Claim, if any, the proceeds of the sale of assets in which it has a first priority perfected security interest, if any, and (2) on account if its Allowed Deficiency Claim, if any, its Pro Rata Share of the PBC Plan Trust Interests.

Mullin of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas confirmed the Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization of PrimaLend Capital Partners, LP and its affiliated debtors. As shared by the Troubled Company Reporter, PrimaLend Capital Partners LP and affiliates submitted an Amended Disclosure Statement in support of the Amended Plan of Reorganization dated January 6, 2026. The Disclosure Statement is approved, on a final basis, as containing adequate information in accordance with Section 1125(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Plan, which includes any and all modifications, supplements, and exhibits, including any modifications, supplements, and exhibits set forth on the record at the Confirmation Hearing, is approved and confirmed under Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Plan is the result of extensive good faith negotiations between the Debtors and a number of their key economic stakeholders. The Plan provides for multiple transactions that maximize value for all the stakeholders. Specifically, the proposed restructuring contemplates the following, among other things: * a sale of the PCP Transferred Assets to an entity to be formed by the First Lien PCP Lenders in exchange for the PCP Credit Bid; * a transfer of the GFL Transferred Assets to Amarillo National Bank, or its assigns in full satisfaction of the amounts owed pursuant to the Prepetition GFL Credit Facility Claims; * the following treatment of Claims and Equity Interests: -- a holder of a Prepetition First Lien PCP Credit Facility Claim will receive on the Effective Date, on account of of such Prepetition First Lien PCP Credit Facility Claim its Pro Rata portion of the PCP Transferred Assets and Liquidating Trust Interests; -- ANB will receive, in full and final satisfaction of its Prepetition GFL Credit Facility Claims, the GFL Transferred Assets; -- each holder of an Allowed PCAP Unsecured Noteholder Claim will receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Allowed PCAP Unsecured Noteholder Claim its Pro Rata share of the 61.625% of the Liquidating Trust Interests; -- each holder of Allowed PCP Unsecured Noteholder Claim will receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Allowed PCP Unsecured Noteholder Claim its Pro Rata share of 23.375% of the Liquidating Trust Interests; -- each holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim will receive in full satisfaction and discharge of such Allowed General Unsecured Claim, its Pro Rata share of 5% the Liquidating Trust Interests; * the PCP Credit Bid Transaction is subject to the Debtors ability to elect, with the First Lien PCP Lenders' consent, to elect an Alternative Transaction, if one is identified pursuant to the Bidding Procedures; and * the creation of a Liquidating Trust for the benefit of the PCAP Unsecured Noteholders, the PCP Noteholders, and General Unsecured Creditors. Just prior to the Debtors filing the original Plan and Disclosure Statement, the First Lien PCP Lenders, Committee, and Ad-Hoc Noteholder Group began global settlement discussions regarding the terms of the Plan. Those negotiations continued in earnest after the filing of the Plan and Disclosure Statement and into the end of December. Those creditor parties were ultimately able to reach a global resolution with the Debtors regarding the terms of the Amended Plan, and as such the Amended Plan contains terms negotiated and agreed upon between those groups. Class 7 consists of PCAP Unsecured Noteholders. On the Effective Date, each holder of an Allowed PCAP Unsecured Noteholder Claim will be entitled to receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Allowed PCAP Unsecured Noteholder Claims, its Pro Rata share of 61.625% of the Liquidating Trust Interests. Further, on or before the Effective Date, the Debtors shall pay the reasonable attorneys' fees of the Ad-Hoc Noteholder Group Counsel; provided, the payment of fees to the Ad-Hoc Noteholder Group Counsel shall not exceed $700,000.00. Class 8 consists of PCP Unsecured Noteholders. On the Effective Date, each holder of an Allowed PCP Unsecured Noteholder Claim will be entitled to receive, in full and final satisfaction of such Allowed PCP Unsecured Noteholder Claims, its Pro Rata share of 23.375% of the Liquidating Trust Interests, provided, however, the Liquidating Trust Agreement shall include a mechanism for the forfeiture and reallocation of any Liquidating Trust Interests issued on account of any Allowed PCP Noteholder Claims existing on the Effective Date that subsequently become Subordinated Claims or Disallowed Claims. Class 9 consists of General Unsecured Claims. Except to the extent that the holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim agrees in writing to other treatment, each holder of an Allowed General Unsecured Claim shall receive, in full satisfaction and discharge of such Allowed General Unsecured Claim, its Pro Rata share of 5% of the Liquidating Trust Interests; provided, however, the Liquidating Trust Agreement shall include a mechanism for the forfeiture and reallocation of any Liquidating Trust Interests issued on account of any Allowed General Unsecured Claims existing of the Effective Date that subsequently become Subordinated Claims or Disallowed Claims. The PCP Credit Bid Transaction contemplates the PCP Senior Lenders using their debt to credit bid and purchase PCP's assets. Likewise, the GFL Credit Bid Transaction contemplates ANB utilizing its debt to credit bid and purchase the GFL assets. In the event that an Alternative Transaction is utilized the Debtors will put on evidence at the Confirmation Hearing of the Debtors ability to close the transaction proposed in the Alternative Transaction. On the PCAP Petition Date, PCAP filed its voluntary petition for bankruptcy. PCAP had was precluded from filing a voluntary petition at the same time as the other Debtors because it did not have the necessary consents required to file a bankruptcy under its governance documents. PCAP was ultimately able to obtain the necessary consents, and thereafter filed its voluntary petition. Shortly thereafter, the Debtors filed their Emergency Motion for Entry of Order Directing (a) Certain Order in Chapter 11 Cases of PrimaLend Capital Partners, LP, et al. be made Applicable to Additional Debtor and (b) Joint Administration of Related Chapter 11 Case (the "PCAP Joint Admin Motion"), and the Bankruptcy Court subsequently entered its Order Directing (a) Certain Orders in Chapter 11 Cases of PrimaLend Capital Partners, LP, A full-text copy of the Amended Disclosure Statement dated January 6, 2026 is available at https://urlcurt.com/u?l=sYOspV from Stretto, Inc., claims agent.

SAN FRANCISCO ARCHDIOCESE: Seeks Court OK for $10MM Abuse Deal -------------------------------------------------------------- Rick Archer of Law360 Bankruptcy Authority reports that The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of San Francisco is seeking court approval for a proposed settlement worth more than $10 million tied to two sexual abuse lawsuits allowed to move forward in its bankruptcy proceedings. The request was filed in California bankruptcy court overseeing the archdiocese's Chapter 11 case.

WARNER BROS: S&P Retains 'BB+' ICR on CreditWatch Negative ---------------------------------------------------------- S&P Global Ratings retains its ratings on Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. (WBD), including the 'BB+' issuer credit rating, remain on CreditWatch with negative implications. The CreditWatch placement reflects that S&P could lower its ratings on WBD to align them with those on PSKY following the close of the proposed transaction. WBD announced that the revised proposal from Paramount Skydance (PSKY, BB+/Watch Neg/--) is superior to its previously agreed acquisition by Netflix. S&P expects the combined entity will assume WBD's existing debt and have significantly higher leverage once the transaction closes. PSKY's acquisition of WBD will likely result in higher leverage at the combined entity. S&P said, "Although complete details regarding the financing of PSKY's acquisition are not yet available, we believe the combined company's leverage will be well above our 4.25x downgrade threshold for our current rating on PSKY. Our preliminary calculations reflect PSKY's leverage increasing to about 8x at close and improve to about 4x three years after the transaction, benefitting from our $6 billion estimate for synergies over three years." While the improved strength of the combined business is a credit positive development, the acquisition presents significant integration risks. The combined entity will assume WBD's existing debt. While the proposed acquisition eliminates WBD's expected separation of its studios and streaming business, our ratings remain on CreditWatch based on S&P's view that it could lower its rating on the combined entity by at least one notch from the current 'BB+' rating on PSKY. S&P said, The CreditWatch placement reflects our view that PSKY's acquisition of the business will result in a capital structure with significantly higher leverage. Depending on the combined entity's final capital structure and management's deleveraging plans, we could lower our issuer credit rating on PSKY by at least one notch. We expect to equalize our ratings on WBD with those on PSKY after the transaction closes, assuming no significant changes to our assumptions."
