ABITIBIBOWATER INC: Seeks Approval of Settlement With Labor Unions
------------------------------------------------------------------
AbitibiBowater Inc. is asking approval from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court of a settlement and master agreement with unions
representing employees in the U.S., netDockets reports.

The settlement, according to the report, covers certain employees
working at facilities in Tennessee, South Carolina, Alabama and
Georgia who are represented by the these labor unions:

   * United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing,
     Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International
     Union;

   * International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers;

   * International Association of Machinists; and

   * United Association of Journeymen and Apprentices of the
     Plumbing and Pipefitting Industry of the United States and
     Canada.

According to netDockets, roughly 73% of AbitibiBowater's employees
are unionized, thus making concessionary agreements with the
company's labor unions a key element of its restructuring.

Pursuant to the Master Agreement, which will become effective upon
ratification by a majority of the covered employees and
consummation of a plan of reorganization, the unionized employees
will accept a 3% across-the-board wage reduction, subject to a 0%
to 2% annual adjustment.  In addition, the unions have agreed to
forgo existing guaranteed wage increases in exchange for a new
performance-based incentive plan.  Under the new incentive plan,
employees would be entitled to performance-based annual payouts
ranging from $500 for EBITDA of $550 million to $2,000 for
$850 million of EBITDA.

AbitibiBowater, the report notes, will agree to assume in full its
collective bargaining agreements and continue certain pension
plans if the Master Agreement, which will run through April 27,
2014, is approved.

Finally, the report discloses, upon effectiveness of the Master
Agreement, the United Steelworkers will withdraw the proofs of
claim it filed in the Debtors' Chapter 11 cases.  The United
Steelworkers filed multiple proofs of claim against AbitibiBowater
and two affiliates, Bowater Newsprint South Operations LLC and
Bowater Inc., asserting claims in excess of $108 million for
claims "arising from grievances, accrued liabilities relating to
other post-retirement benefits, miscellaneous benefits, severance,
and gain sharing."

                     About All American Group

Elkhart, Indiana-based All American Group, Inc., formerly Coachmen
Industries, Inc., (OTC:COHM.PK) says it is one of America's
premier systems-built construction companies under the ALL
AMERICAN BUILDING SYSTEMS(R), ALL AMERICAN HOMES(R), and MOD-U-
KRAF(R) brands, as well as a manufacturer of specialty vehicles.

At June 30, 2010, the Company had total assets of $81.310 million,
total liabilities of $48.104 million, and shareholders' equity of
$33.206 million.

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company failed to meet
certain financial covenants of the credit agreement with H.I.G.
All American LLC.  H.I.G. did not declare the Company to be in
default of any covenant and on April 5, 2010, the Company and
H.I.G. entered into the First Amendment to the Loan Agreement.
H.I.G. waived specified Events of Default that had occurred under
the Loan Agreement dated October 27, 2009 between the Company and
H.I.G. prior to April 5, 2010.

The Company said in its Form 10-Q report for the second quarter of
2010, that operating results for the six month period ended June
30, 2010, failed to meet the revised debt covenants set with
H.I.G. in the First Amendment to the Loan Agreement.  H.I.G. has
waived the covenant defaults through July 31, 2010 in exchange for
a waiver fee and expenses of $800,000 representing the value of
the penalties prescribed in the First Amendment, plus expenses,
and the issuance on August 24, 2010 of the Second Amended and
Restated Tranche B Note.  The Second Amendment provides that the
waiver fee and expenses, plus accrued interest on the convertible
debt thru August 24, 2010 of $800,000, be added to the principal
amount of the convertible note.  As a result of the Second
Amendment, the Tranche B Note has a face value of $12.5 million.

The Board of Directors and H.I.G. are currently in discussions to
work out mutually acceptable agreements for the long-term.  Since
the Company cannot be assured it will be in compliance with the
existing covenants after July 31, 2010 and discussions with H.I.G.
regarding revised covenants are continuing.

                           *     *     *

McGladrey & Pullen LLP, in Elkhart, Indiana, expressed substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern
following the Company's 2009 results.  The auditors noted that
Coachmen has suffered recurring losses from operations and
continues to operate in an industry where economic recovery has
been very slow.


ALMATIS B.V.: Gets New Order Approving Access to Cash Collateral
----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York
issued a final order authorizing Almatis B.V. and its affiliated
debtors to use the cash collateral of their pre-bankruptcy
lenders.

In a 21-page order, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Martin Glenn authorized
Almatis' use of the cash collateral in accordance with a prepared
budget for the period commencing on August 23, 2010, until the
occurrence of a termination event.

Judge Glenn clarified that the termination of the Final Cash
Collateral Order will only cause the termination of the rights of
Almatis to use the cash collateral but won't affect the validity,
enforceability, priority or perfected status of any lien and
security interest granted to UBS Limited.

UBS Limited, as trustee for Almatis' prepetition secured lenders,
is granted "perfected replacement liens" and "replacement
security interests" on all properties of Almatis to the extent of
any diminution in the value of Prepetition Secured Lenders'
interest in the prepetition collateral, which includes the cash
collateral.  The Prepetition Secured Lenders also continue to
have "superpriority administrative claims" against Almatis'
estates.

The August 23 Final Cash Collateral Order authorizes Almatis to
pay UBS for the fees and expenses of its two counsel and one
financial advisor in connection with the company's bankruptcy
cases.  Almatis is also permitted to continue to utilize the
services of Talbot Hughes McKillop LLP.

The Court's August 23 order is the second time a final cash
collateral order was issued in Almatis' bankruptcy cases.
Almatis, on May 17, 2010, obtained the Court's authority to use
the cash collateral but it was terminated following the rejection
of the company's plan support agreement with its largest senior
lender, Oaktree Capital Management L.P.

Almatis rejected the Plan Support Agreement and a prepackaged
restructuring plan proposed by Oaktree Capital after Dubai
International Capital LLC arranged a revised proposal that would
help fully repay senior lenders and would allow junior lenders to
recover more than under the Oaktree-sponsored prepackaged plan.

                       About Almatis Group

billion and debts of more than US$1 billion as of the bankruptcy
filing.

ALMATIS B.V.: Plan Confirmation Hearing Set for September 20
------------------------------------------------------------
Almatis B.V. and its affiliated debtors are now a step closer to
emerging from bankruptcy after Judge Martin Glenn of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York approved
the disclosure statement explaining their proposed restructuring
plan.

The Disclosure Statement describes the major provisions of the
restructuring proposal arranged by Almatis' owner, Dubai
International Capital LLC.

In a 10-page order dated August 24, 2010, Judge Glenn held that
the Disclosure Statement contains "adequate information" pursuant
to Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy Code.  He overruled objections
asserted against the Disclosure Statement, including an
opposition letter from a group of creditors led by Jonathan Lee
Riches.

Almatis earlier asked Judge Glenn to overrule the objection,
maintaining that the group lacks standing to oppose approval of
the Disclosure Statement since it does not have claims against
the company and its affiliated debtors.

The Bankruptcy Court's approval paves the way for Almatis to
begin the solicitation of creditor votes on the Plan.  The
company needs to obtain a majority of votes in favor of the Plan
from holders of impaired claims and a court order confirming the
Plan to finally exit bankruptcy protection.

Creditors entitled to vote on the Plan have until September 13,
2010, to cast their ballots.  They are required to follow a
uniform process governing the solicitation of votes, which Judge
Glenn also approved in his August 24 order.

Judge Glenn also approved the contents of the solicitation
package to be distributed to the voting classes and the proposed
form of the ballots.

The Court established August 24, 2010, as the record date for the
purposes of determining the creditors and interest holders
entitled to receive the Solicitation Package.

Almatis' claims agent, Epiq Bankruptcy Solutions, is authorized
to tabulate the ballots and file with the Bankruptcy Court a
report of the voting results on or before September 15, 2010.

The Bankruptcy Court is set to hold a hearing on September 20,
2010, to consider confirmation of the Plan.  Deadline for filing
objections is September 13, 2010.

A full-text copy of the Disclosure Statement Order is available
for free at http://bankrupt.com/misc/Almatis_Aug24DSorder.pdf

Almatis' Plan would help fully repay its senior lenders and
enhance recoveries for its junior lenders.  The Plan was arranged
by the company's owner, DIC, after it obtained debt financing
from a consortium composed by JP Morgan, Bank of America Merrill,
GSO Capital Partners LP, GoldenTree Asset Management LP and
Sankaty Credit Opportunities IV LP.

Funding for the Plan will also come from a $100 million equity
contribution that DIC has already escrowed with JP Morgan.

Under the Plan, senior lenders will be paid in full while second
lien lenders will receive EUR52.1 million worth of senior paid-
in-kind unsecured notes to be issued by Almatis Topco 2, a
private limited liability company to be formed on or before the
effective date and to be wholly owned by Almatis Topco 1.

Indirect ownership of the reorganized companies will be
transferred on the plan effective date to Almatis Topco 1, a
newly formed Dutch corporation that will indirectly hold 100%
stake in reorganized DIC Almatis Holdco B.V. and all of its
subsidiaries.  Almatis Topco 1 will be owned 60% by a DIC
investor and 40% by the mezzanine and the junior mezzanine
lenders on the plan effective date.

The DIC investor will be an entity owned, managed or advised by
DIC to hold the so-called "senior preference shares" and
"permitted transferees."

Almatis earlier withdrew the prepackaged restructuring plan
proposed by its largest senior lender, Oaktree Capital Management
L.P.  The prepackaged plan was rejected by Almatis' mezzanine and
second-lien lenders and was opposed by DIC as it threatened to
wipe out the objectors' debt claims against and equity stake in
Almatis.

                           Revised Terms

Prior to the issuance of the August 24 Disclosure Statement
Order, Almatis further revised some terms of its Revised Plan and
Disclosure Statement.

One of the revised terms of the Plan and Disclosure Statement
dated August 23 provides that 60% of the ordinary shares in
Almatis Topco 1 will be issued to a DIC investor in exchange for
EUR38,828,618, while the remaining 40% will be issued to holders
of allowed mezzanine claims and junior mezzanine claims.

Another revised provision requires Almatis and its affiliated
debtors to guarantee the senior secured notes and the $50 million
exit revolving credit facility that will be provided by JP Morgan
and Bank of America Merrill.  It also requires that the senior
secured notes and the revolving credit facility be collateralized
by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the
assets of the Almatis entities.

Granting the first priority security interest will depend on the
release of the existing security interests in the prepetition
collateral in favor of Almatis' senior lenders, second lien
lenders, and the mezzanine and junior mezzanine lenders.

In addition, Almatis and its affiliated debtors are required to
make an offer to each holder of a senior secured note to purchase
up to all of such note at a price equal to 101% of principal
amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the purchase date.

Almatis also inserted a language in the Disclosure Statement
clarifying that the settlement deal with Oaktree Capital releases
potential claims of the company against the senior lender,
including equitable subordination claims that some junior lenders
had previously requested authority to pursue on behalf of the
company.

A provision was added to the Disclosure Statement stated that
subject to the occurrence of the plan effective date, Almatis,
Oaktree Capital and other concerned parties will exchange mutual
releases of any direct claims.  These claims do not include
direct, non-derivative claims held by DIC and any non-debtor
against Oaktree Capital and vice-versa.

Under the Revised Plan and Disclosure Statement, intercompany
claims are divided into two classes: Class 8(a) and Class 8(b)-
(m).  Class 8(a), which consists of intercompany claims against
DIC Almatis Holdco B.V., will be reinstated as of the plan
effective date and will be transferred by DIC Almatis Equityco
Cooperatief U.A., a co-operative organized under the laws of The
Netherlands, in accordance with the implementation memorandum.
Meanwhile, intercompany claims under Class 8(b)-(m) are impaired
claims and will be reinstated as of the plan effective date
except as provided for in the implementation memorandum.

The Revised Plan and Disclosure Statement also call for similar
treatment of interests in DIC Almatis Holdco B.V., DIC Almatis
Bidco B.V., and Almatis Holdings 3 B.V., as categorized under
Claim Classes 10(a), 10(c) and 10(d) of the Plan.  These
interests are unimpaired and will be transferred to Almatis Topco
2 on the plan effective date in exchange for a payment of EUR1
for each class of interests.

dated August 23 are available without charge at:

ALMATIS B.V.: Wins Approval of Oaktree Capital Settlement
---------------------------------------------------------
Almatis B.V. and its affiliated debtors won approval from U.S.
Bankruptcy Judge Martin Glenn of a settlement of claims with their
largest senior lender, Oaktree Capital Management L.P.

The Oaktree deal was hammered out to "remove potential obstacles"
to the quick confirmation of Almatis' revised restructuring plan,
according to Michael Rosenthal, Esq., at Gibson Dunn & Crutcher
LLP, in New York.

Oaktree Capital, which owns 46% of Almatis' senior debt, earlier
opposed the Revised Plan and considered revising its own
prepackaged restructuring proposal for the company by offering
junior lenders some immediate recovery of their debt.  The senior
lender eventually dropped its objection and proposed a settlement
to Almatis.

Under the settlement deal, Almatis agreed to make full payment of
its senior debt to Oaktree Capital on the effective date of the
Revised Plan.

Almatis also agreed to pay up to $5.25 million as an allowed
administrative expense claim to settle Oaktree Capital's claims
for fees, expenses and other charges.  The company, however, is
not required to make the payment if the effective date of the
Revised Plan does not occur.

Oaktree Capital, meanwhile, agreed to waive any potential
argument that payment of its senior secured claims should be made
in U.S. dollars.  The senior lender is required under the deal to
waive any objection to the Revised Plan, and to support any
request by Almatis for the Plan's confirmation and Almatis'
continued use of cash collateral.

The deal also requires Almatis and Oaktree Capital to exchange
mutual releases from all claims or lawsuits.

The Almatis/Oaktree Settlement is formalized in a 9-page
agreement, a full-text copy of which is available for free at:

In a related development, Adam Paul, Esq., a partner at Kirkland
& Ellis LLP, in Chicago, Illinois, filed a declaration with the
Court, disclosing that Oaktree Capital incurred as much as
$7.012 million in fees and expenses in connection with the
bankruptcy cases of Almatis and its affiliated debtors.

The $7.012 million includes fees and expenses of Kirkland & Ellis
and Loyens & Loeff N.V., according to Mr. Paul.

Kirkland & Ellis and Loyens & Loeff both serve as legal counsel
of Oaktree Capital.

Mr. Paul filed his declaration in support of the parties'
settlement agreement.

AMACORE GROUP: Reaches Securities Purchase Deal with Vicis Capital
------------------------------------------------------------------
The Amacore Group Inc., on August 16, entered into a Securities
Purchase Agreement with Vicis Capital Master Fund, pursuant to
which the Company agreed to issue and sell to Vicis up to
$5,000,000 in principal amount of its 15% Senior Secured
Convertible Notes.  On the Initial Closing Date, the Company
issued and sold $2,500,000 in principal amount of Notes and
received gross proceeds of $2,500,000.

The Notes are due on June 30, 2011, and bear interest at a rate of
15% per annum.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the
Stated Interest Rate shall be adjusted to a rate of 18% per annum.

The obligations of the Company under the Notes are secured
pursuant to the terms of the Security Agreement between the
Company and Vicis.  The Company also agreed to pledge all of the
capital stock or other ownership interests of certain of its
subsidiaries pursuant to the Stock Pledge and Escrow Agreement in
order to secure its obligations under the Notes.

In addition, all of the obligations of the Company under the Notes
are guaranteed by certain of the Company's subsidiaries pursuant
to the terms of the Guaranty Agreement and all of the obligations
of such subsidiaries under the Subsidiary Guarantee are secured
pursuant to the terms of the Guarantor Security Agreement.  The
Notes are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of
the Company's Class A common stock at an initial conversion price
equal to $0.005 per share.  The Notes contain provisions that
protect the holders against dilution by adjustment of the
Conversion Price in certain events such as stock dividends,
stock splits and other similar events.

In addition, the Notes have anti-dilution protection in the event
that the Company issues securities at a value less than the
Conversion Price.  In connection with the Private Placement, the
Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with Vicis,
pursuant to which the Company granted "piggyback" registration
rights to Vicis.  Vicis also agreed to waive certain anti-dilution
rights that it was entitled to by virtue of its holdings of other
securities of the Company pursuant to the Waiver by and between
the Company and Vicis.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Vicis is required to deposit
the remaining purchase price of $2,500,000 into an escrow account
within 5 days of the Initial Closing pursuant to the terms of the
Escrow Agreement by and between the Company, Vicis and the escrow
agent.  The escrow agent shall disburse funds from the escrow
account pursuant to the joint written instructions of the Company
and Vicis.  Upon the disbursement of funds from escrow, the
Company shall issue to Vicis Notes in the principal amount of the
jointly approved escrow disbursement.  The Escrow Agreement shall
terminate upon the Maturity Date and any funds remaining in escrow
shall be returned to Vicis.

AMERICAN INT'L: China Life to Consider Participation in AIA IPO
---------------------------------------------------------------
Victoria Ruan, writing for the Wall Street Journal, reports that
China Life Insurance Co. Chairman Yang Chao said the company will
study whether to subscribe to pan-Asia life insurer AIA Group
Ltd.'s pending initial public offering but wants to see the
pricing before making a decision.

According to the Journal, Mr. Yang said at a news briefing
Thursday that China Life canceled a plan in March 2009 to buy a
strategic stake in AIA.  But he said he hasn't personally been in
"direct touch" with senior management of AIA parent American
International Group Inc. to discuss possible strategic investments
in the wake of U.K. insurer Prudential PLC's June decision to walk
away from a $35.5 billion deal to take over AIA.

According to the Troubled Company Reporter on August 26, 2010, The
Wall Street Journal's Alison Tudor reported that people familiar
with the matter said AIG has enlisted five more banks to handle
its listing of AIA this fall.  Sources told the Journal that AIG
has added Bank of America Corp.'s Bank of America Merrill Lynch
unit, Credit Suisse Group and UBS AG as well as Chinese banks CCB
International (Holdings) Ltd. and ICBC International Holdings Ltd.
as bookrunners on the deal.  Goldman Sachs Group Inc., Morgan
Stanley, Citigroup Inc. and Deutsche Bank AG were appointed as
global coordinators in July 2010.

According to the Journal, all nine banks were previously involved
in plans for an AIA IPO, which was abandoned when Prudential made
its move to acquire the unit in March.

According to the Journal, with its roster of bankers now
completed, AIG must decide the size of the IPO and its structure
in the coming weeks if it is to keep to its rigorous timetable for
the Hong Kong listing.  AIG has also has to name a new chief
financial officer for AIA after the previous person quit in the
midst of a bid from Prudential this spring.

People familiar with the matter also told the Journal AIG has
already turned down offers from a consortium of Chinese pre-IPO
investors because it couldn't be certain the bidders had secure
financing or regulatory approval-and it couldn't wait to find out.
The report also said AIG's advisers have already talked to
sovereign-wealth funds -- including China Investment Corp.,
Singapore's Temasek Holdings Pte. Ltd., the Government of
Singapore Investment Corp., the Kuwait Investment Authority and
the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority -- about investing in AIA.
They also have spoken with several Hong Kong-based tycoons about
acquiring a piece of AIA, the sources told the Journal.

collapsed under the weight of bad bets it made insuring mortgage-
backed securities.  The Company, however, was bailed out by the
Federal Reserve, but even after an initial infusion of
$85 billion, losses continued to grow.  The later rescue packages
brought the total to $182 billion, making it the biggest federal
bailout in U.S. history.

AIG has been working to protect and enhance the value of its key
businesses, execute an orderly asset disposition plan, and
position itself for the future.  AIG has sold a number of its

AMERICAN SAFETY: Court OKs $25MM DIP Financing Despite Objections
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Judge Mary F. Walrath of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware has given final
approval to postpetition financing intended to facilitate the sale
of most of American Safety Razor Co.'s assets to its first-lien
lenders, overruling the objections of junior lenders who favored a
reorganization.

UBS AG, Stamford Branch, as first-lien agent for first-lien
lenders, asked the Court to deny objections of junior lenders
Blackrock Kelso Capital Corporation and GSO/Blackstone Debtor
Funds Management LLC to the Debtor's request to access $25 million
of DIP financing and use cash collateral.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on August 25, 2010,
GSO/Blackstone and BlackRock Kelso, which together own 27.6% of
the second-lien bank debt, assert that the Debtor could
restructure through a plan of reorganization rather than "throw
the keys" to the first-lien lenders, which are owed $245 million.

UBS, however, stated that the second lien lenders' objection must
be overruled, explaining that:

   1. it is procedurally defective -- the delay in retention of
      the objectors' counsel and filing of a late objection must
      not excuse them from complying with the Court-ordered
      deadlines;

   2. the intercreditor agreement prohibits the second-lien
      lenders from contesting the DIP facility and the sale
      process -- pursuant to the agreement, the objectors have
      already agreed not to oppose a 363 sale; and

   3. the terms of the DIP facility are fair, reasonable and
      appropriate, reflect the Debtors' business judgment, and
      will provide parties-in-interest ample opportunity to submit
      a higher or better offer.

The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors sought a delay of
the entry of any final DIP order unless the asset purchase
agreement is modified.  The Committee explained that the Debtors
and the DIP Lenders have not resolved their disagreement over the
appropriateness of the termination provision, as viewed in the
context of the DIP facility and its event of default provisions.

BASHAS' INC: Lenders Hope to Stop Plan Implementation
-----------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that secured lenders are appealing approval of Bashas'
Inc.'s confirmed reorganization plan.  After a five-day hearing
that began in July, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge James M. Marlar in
Phoenix wrote a 75-page opinion this month explaining why it was
proper to approve the Plan over the lenders' "no" vote.

According to the report, the lenders are asking Judge Marlar to
hold up implementation of the Plan pending appeal.  If Judge
Marlar allows the Plan to go ahead, the lenders say they will ask
a U.S. district judge for a stay pending appeal.

The Bloomberg report relates that the lenders contend that Bashas'
will be unable to pay them in full over time as the Plan provides.
They also say the Plan gives them interest at rates lower than
outside lenders were willing to provide.  Although the lenders
voted against the Plan, the Plan received affirmative votes from
trade suppliers owed $30 million and other unsecured creditors
owed $18 million.

The lenders, owed some $217 million, include Prudential Life
Insurance Co. of America, Wells Fargo Bank NA, Bank of America NA
and Compass Bank.

BERNARD MADOFF: Lifland Asks Gibraltar Court to Release Funds
-------------------------------------------------------------
Dow Jones Newswires' Chad Bray reports that in a letter filed
publicly on Tuesday, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Burton Lifland, who is
overseeing the liquidation of Bernard Madoff's estate, asked the
Gibraltar Supreme Court to release more than $73 million being
held by the Gibraltar court, so that the funds can be distributed
to fraud victims.

Dow Jones notes the funds were deposited in bank accounts in
Gibraltar by a custodian for Madoff investor Vizcaya Partners
Ltd., which allegedly withdrew about $180 million from Mr.
Madoff's firm in the five months before the fraud came to light.

Irving Picard, the court-appointed trustee for Mr. Madoff's firm,
won a $180 million default judgment against Vizcaya earlier this
month, claiming the funds transferred to the British Virgin
Islands firm were "nothing more than other victims' stolen
monies."  Mr. Picard is seeking to recover assets on behalf of Mr.
Madoff's victims.

"The Gibraltar funds originate from transfers made from [Bernard
L. Madoff Investment Securities] that I have adjudged to be
recoverable under U.S. law and payable to the trustee to
administer as part of the liquidation of BLMIS," the judge wrote,
according to Dow Jones.

Dow Jones says a lawyer for Vizcaya didn't have a comment when
reached on Wednesday.

                    About Bernard L. Madoff

Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC and Bernard L.
Madoff orchestrated the largest Ponzi scheme in history, with
losses topping US$50 billion.

On December 15, 2008, the Honorable Louis A. Stanton of the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of New York granted the
application of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation for
a decree adjudicating that the customers of BLMIS are in need of
the protection afforded by the Securities Investor Protection Act
of 1970.  The District Court's Protective Order (i) appointed
Irving H. Picard, Esq., as trustee for the liquidation of BLMIS,
(ii) appointed Baker & Hostetler LLP as his counsel, and (iii)
removed the SIPA Liquidation proceeding to the Bankruptcy Court
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Adv. Pro. No. 08-01789) (Lifland, J.).

On April 13, 2009, former BLMIS clients filed an involuntary
Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition against Bernard Madoff (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. 09-11893).  The case is before Hon. Burton Lifland.  The
petitioning creditors -- Blumenthal & Associates Florida General
Partnership, Martin Rappaport Charitable Remainder Unitrust,
Martin Rappaport, Marc Cherno, and Steven Morganstern -- assert
$64 million in claims against Mr. Madoff based on the balances
contained in the last statements they got from BLMIS.

On April 14, 2009, Grant Thornton UK LLP as receiver placed Madoff
Securities International Limited in London under bankruptcy
protection pursuant to Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code
(Bankr. S.D. Fla. 09-16751).

The Chapter 15 case was later transferred to Manhattan.  In June
2009, Judge Lifland approved the consolidation of the Madoff SIPA
proceedings and the bankruptcy case.

Judge Denny Chin of the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of New York on June 29, 2009, sentenced Mr. Madoff to
150 years of life imprisonment for defrauding investors in
United States v. Madoff, No. 09-CR-213 (S.D.N.Y.)

As of August 13, 2010, a total of $5,578,441,409 in claims by
investors has been allowed, with $715,602,064 to be paid by the
SIPC.  Investors are expected to receive additional distributions
from money recovered by Mr. Picard.

Mr. Picard has recovered a number of assets and in liquidated
some of those assets for the benefit of customers, totaling
$1,183,779,811 as of November 2009.

BONTEN MEDIA: Moody's Downgrades Corporate Family Rating to 'Caa2'
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded the Corporate Family and
Probability of Default ratings for Bonten Media Group, Inc. to
Caa2 from Caa1, concluding the review for downgrade commenced
November 24, 2009.  The downgrade incorporates Moody's belief that
the company will be challenged to generate meaningful free cash
flow when its Senior Subordinated Notes convert to cash pay in
2011.  Furthermore, notwithstanding expectations for some
continuing near-term cyclical improvement in operating
performance, Moody's consider Bonten's high debt-to-EBITDA
unsustainable for a broadcaster over the longer term, which will
make refinancing challenging when the revolver matures in 2013 and
the term loan in 2014, in Moody's opinion.  Moody's also lowered
the ratings on Bonten's senior subordinated bonds to Caa3 from
Caa2.

A summary of the actions:

Bonten Media Group, Inc.

  -- Probability of Default Rating, Downgraded to Caa2 from Caa1

  -- Corporate Family Rating, Downgraded to Caa2 from Caa1

  -- Senior Subordinated Bonds, Downgraded to Caa3, LGD5, 73% from
     Caa2, LGD5, 72%

  -- Senior Secured Bank Credit Facility, Confirmed B1, LGD2, 17%

  -- Outlook, Changed to Stable From Rating Under Review

                        Ratings Rationale

Bonten's Caa2 corporate family rating incorporates its high
leverage, which poses challenges for managing a business
vulnerable to advertising spending cycles, in Moody's view.
Furthermore, Moody's believe continued accretion of interest
expense on the company's senior subordinated notes throughout 2010
and the first half of 2011 will result in debt-to-EBITDA remaining
above 10 times, and the conversion of the notes to cash pay in
2011 will prevent meaningful free cash flow generation.  In
Moody's opinion, Bonten's lack of scale, as indicated by 2009
revenue below $50 million, magnifies both the financial and
cyclical risk, given the potential for more significant swings in
credit metrics and for a disproportionate impact from the loss of
a large advertiser or a region specific downturn.  Moody's
believes that Bonten's diverse network affiliations and its strong
local news rankings help it maintain leading audience positions in
almost of all of its markets, a positive for the credit.

The stable outlook incorporates expectations for compliance with
bank financial covenants, either through continued improvement in
operating performance, debt paydown with balance sheet cash, or an
equity cure.  The stable outlook also assumes continued gradual
recovery in the economy, and existing ratings would most likely
not tolerate a double dip recession given the pressure on
covenants and liquidity.

Moody's would consider a negative outlook or downgrade based on
expectations for either a technical or payment default, such as a
breach of financial covenants or projected inability to meet debt
service, which could result from lack of improvement in EBITDA.
The company's high leverage and lack of scale limit upward
momentum.  However, a reduction in absolute debt or material
improvement in operating performance leading to expectations for
two-year average leverage being sustained under 9 times
(incorporating Moody's standard adjustments) could result in a
positive outlook or upgrade.  An upgrade would also require
expectations for sustained positive free cash flow.

BOSQUE POWER: To Mediate With Lenders on Plan Issues

BTA BANK: Can't Use U.S. Law Against Foreign Debts
--------------------------------------------------
In a decision that could have major ramifications for Chapter 15
cases, a U.S. federal judge ruled Monday that the Kazakhstan-based
JSC BTA Bank cannot use U.S. law as a shield against a large debt
owed to a Swiss bank, Bankruptcy Law360 reports.

                           About BTA Bank

http://bta.kz/-- is a Kazakhstan-based financial institution,
which is involved in the provision of banking and financial
products for private and corporate clients.

Commonwealth of Independent States and has affiliated banks in
Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan and Turkey.
In addition, the Bank maintains representative offices in Russia,
Ukraine, China, the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom.
The Bank has no branch or agency in the United States, and its
primary assets in the United States consist of balances in
accounts with correspondent banks in New York City.

Chapter 15 bankruptcy protection in New York on Feb. 4, 2010
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-10638), listing more than US$1
billion in both assets and debt.

On March 9, 2010, the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe, citing
Bloomberg News, reported that JSC BTA Bank was granted relief in
the U.S. under Chapter 15 when the bankruptcy judge in New York
ruled t that the court in Kazakhstan abroad is home to the
"foreign main proceeding."  Consequently, creditor actions in the
U.S. were permanently halted, forcing creditors to hash out their
claims and receive distributions in Kazakhstan, according to
Bloomberg.

BTA Bank is represented in the Chapter 15 proceedings by White &
Case LLP.


CALIFORNIA COASTAL: Key Settlement With Lenders Approved
--------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reports that the U.S. Bankruptcy Court approved
California Coastal Communities' settlement agreement with
Wilmington Trust FSB, as agent to the senior lenders.

Pursuant to the settlement, California Coastal has arranged a
$182 million loan from Luxor Capital Group LP to be able to pay
off secured lenders in cash.  The lenders' claims against the
estate by more than $6.6 million through the waiver of default
interest and reductions of professional fees and expenses.

With the Settlement, the Company is seeking approval of a Chapter
11 plan absent any objections from the senior lenders.  The
Chapter 11 Plan pays unsecured creditors in full, without
interest, over two years.

Company's primary asset is a 356-home luxury coastal community
known as Brightwater in Huntington Beach, California.

California Coastal Communities, Inc. and certain of its direct and
indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy

09-21712).  Joshua M. Mester, Esq., in Los Angeles, California,

CALIFORNIA COASTAL: Defends Proposed $184MM Exit Loan From Luxor
----------------------------------------------------------------
Dow Jones' DBR Small Cap reports that California Coastal
Communities Inc. and lender Luxor Capital Group LP are defending a
proposed $184 million bankruptcy-exit loan from criticism that the
terms of the financing may harm the company and its creditors.
DBR says California Coastal and its proposed exit lender on
Wednesday filed court papers urging the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in
Santa Ana, Calif., to hold fast to its prior order authorizing
them to enter into an exit-financing commitment letter, an order
that California Coastal's existing lenders are asking the court to
reconsider.

According to DBR, Lenders led by agent Wilmington Trust FSB have
accused California Coastal and Luxor of misleading the court by
executing a "complete turnabout" regarding the financing terms
after the court gave them the green light to strike a deal.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on August 19, 2010,
California Coastal said in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
June 30, 2010, that it needs $15 million in additional capital to
move forward with its proposed reorganization plan.

California Coastal filed a proposed plan of reorganization in
March.  The Company has obtained commitment from Luxor for $184
million of new debt financing to replace, if funded, the Company's
existing $81.7 million revolving loan and $99.8 million term loan
and to fund operations.

On July 28, the Company revised the disclosure statement
explaining the plan to provide that the definitive documentation
for the new financing will require, as a condition to closing,
that the Debtor obtain an additional $15 million of financing in
the form of (i) indebtedness that would be subordinated to the New
Financing; (ii) equity; or (iii) a combination of debt and equity.
As a result, the plan confirmation hearing set for August 12 has
been rescheduled.  The outside closing date for the new financing
is August 31.

"There can be no assurance that we and the other Debtors will be
able to successfully complete the New Financing and confirm,
consummate and execute a plan of reorganization with respect to
the Chapter 11 cases that is acceptable to the Bankruptcy Court
and the creditors and other parties in interest," the Company
said.

The Company has maintained business operations through the
reorganization process.  The Company noted in its Form 10-Q that
its liquidity and capital resources, however, are significantly
affected by the Chapter 11 cases, noting that use of cash is
limited and subject to approval by the bankruptcy court.  Its
authorization to continue to use cash collateral and sell homes
free and clear of liens is currently scheduled to terminate on
September 8, 2010.

CCM MERGER: Moody's Reviews 'Caa1' Corporate Family Rating
----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service placed CCM Merger, Inc.'s ratings,
including its Caa1 Corporate Family Rating, on review for possible
downgrade.  CCM Merger is the indirect owner and operator of
MotorCity Casino.  The review for possible downgrade reflects the
fact that CCM's $70 million senior secured first lien revolver
expires in less than 12 months and the company could face a
liquidity event without an extension because the company is
reliant on the revolver to back LOC's.

While CCM can cover its interest payments and debt amortization,
about $50 million of the revolver acts as a backstop that secures
the principal and interest payments for CCM's $50 million Michigan
Strategic Fund bonds due 2039.  If the expiration date of the
revolver is not extended, this would cause a liquidity event as
CCM would have to either repay the MSF bonds or find an
alternative LOC provider.

During the review period Moody's will monitor the company's
progress in its efforts to extend the expiration date of the
revolver.  Ratings would likely be lowered if CCM is unable to
obtain an extension.

Ratings placed on review for possible downgrade (and LGD rates
subject to adjustment):

  -- Corporate Family Rating at Caa1

  -- Probability of Default Rating at Caa1

  -- $70 million first lien senior secured revolver expiring July
     2011 at B3 (LGD 3, 33%)

  -- $548 million Senior secured term loan B due July 2012 at B3
     (LGD 3, 33%)

  -- $273 million 8% senior unsecured notes due August 2013 at
     Caa3 (LGD 5, 87%)

Moody's previous rating action on CCM occurred on April 28, 2010,
when the company's Corporate Family Rating and Probability of
Default Rating were confirmed at Caa1 and a negative rating
outlook was assigned.

CCM Merger, Inc., indirectly owns and operates the MotorCity
Casino in Detroit, Michigan.  The company generates approximately
of $460 million of annual net revenue.

Moody's Investors Service adopts all necessary measures so that
the information it uses in assigning a credit rating is of
sufficient quality and from reliable sources; however, Moody's
Investors Service does not and cannot in every instance
independently verify, audit or validate information received in
the rating process.


CELERITAS TECHNOLOGIES: Proposes DRD-Led Auction for Assets
-----------------------------------------------------------
Celeritas Technologies, Inc., has asked the Bankruptcy Court for
permission to sell the majority of its assets through a 11 U.S.C.
Sec. 363" auction, its largest creditor, Paradigm said in a news
release. Donald R. Davis, owner of DRD, is the stalking horse
bidder under the proposed sale process.

According to Paradigm, the Bankruptcy Court has not yet approved
this process or ruled on Paradigm's objections to the sale. As of
today, no date has been established for the auction.

Celeritas has asked the Bankruptcy Court's permission to hire an
investment bank called FOCUS, LLC to market Celeritas' assets and
find potential buyers.

On July 28, the Bankruptcy Court granted Paradigm's request to
conduct discovery into Celeritas and its bankruptcy filing.  That
process is still underway.

                      Dispute With Paradigm

In 2007, Paradigm instituted a lawsuit against Celeritas in which
Paradigm asserted claims of fraud, trade-secret misappropriation,
breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, and violation of the
federal computer fraud and abuse act.  The jury returned a verdict
in Paradigm's favor, including a finding that Celeritas was liable
for fraud, in December 2009.  On December 14, 2009, the United
States District Court for the District of Kansas entered judgment
against Celeritas in the amount of $2.7 million, which included
$1.1 million in compensatory damages and $1.6 million in punitive
damages.  Paradigm is also asking to recover its attorney's fees
from Celeritas, and the Court is currently considering Paradigm's
application.

As Celeritas' largest creditor, Paradigm said it has closely
followed the bankruptcy proceeding and participated as
appropriate.

                  About Celeritas Technologies

Celeritas Technologies, LLC, filed for Chapter 11 protection on
July 13, 2010 (Bankr. D. Kan. Case No. 10-22381).  Lisa Epps Dade,

assets; total liabilities of $77.707 million, common stock

                       Going Concern Doubt

San Francisco-based Stonefield Josephson, Inc., has included an
explanatory paragraph in their report on Cell Therapeutics, Inc.'s
December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 consolidated financial statements
regarding their substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.  The independent auditors reported
that the Company has sustained loss from operations over the audit
periods, incurred an accumulated deficit, and has substantial
monetary liabilities in excess of monetary assets as of
December 31, 2009.

                        Bankruptcy Warning

In its Form 10-Q report for the period ended June 30, 2010, the
Company said it does not expect that existing cash and cash
equivalents, including the cash received from the issuance of its
Series 6 preferred stock and warrants, will be sufficient to fund
presently anticipated operations beyond the fourth quarter of
2010.

The Company has commenced cost saving initiatives to reduce
operating expenses, including the reduction of employees related
to planned commercial pixantrone operations and continues to seek
additional areas for cost reductions.  However, the Company said
it will need to raise additional funds and is currently exploring
alternative sources of equity or debt financing.  The Company said
it may seek to raise such capital through public or private equity
financings, partnerships, joint ventures, disposition of assets,
debt financings or restructurings, bank borrowings or other
sources of financing.

The Company has called an annual meeting of shareholders that is
scheduled to be held on September 16, 2010, to ask shareholders to
approve proposals, including a proposal to increase authorized
shares of common and preferred stock from 810,000,000 to
1,210,000,000 shares.  If the shareholders do not approve this
proposal, then the Company said it will not be able to issue
shares of common stock or securities convertible for shares of its
common stock, and thus, may not be able to raise additional
capital.

If the shareholders approve this proposal, the Company said its
Board of Directors would have the option to issue such shares
depending on its financial needs and the market opportunities if
deemed to be in the best interest of shareholders.  However,
additional funding may not be available on favorable terms or at
all.  If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities,
substantial dilution to existing shareholders may result.

"If we fail to obtain additional capital when needed, we may be
required to delay, scale back, or eliminate some or all of our
research and development programs and may be forced to cease
operations, liquidate our assets and possibly seek bankruptcy
protection," the Company said.

-----------------------------------------------------------
CNC Development Ltd. filed on August 19, 2010, its annual report
on Form 20-F, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

UHY Vocation HK CPA Limited, in Hong Kong, expressed substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The independent auditors noted that the Company has only
$1.6 million of working capital as of December 31, 2009, and is
dependent on obtaining additional financing to execute its
business plan.

The Company reported a net loss of US$4.3 million on zero revenue
for 2009, compared with net income of US$3.8 million on
US$4.9 million of revenue for 2008.

about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.


CORDOVA FUNDING: S&P Affirms 'BB' Rating on $225 Mil. Bonds
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it affirmed its 'BB'
rating on Cordova Funding Corp.'s $225 million ($179 million
outstanding as of March 31, 2010) senior secured bonds due 2019
following a full review of the project finance transaction.  At
the same time, S&P changed the recovery rating to '3' from '1'.
The outlook is stable.

The 'BB' rating reflects the project's fairly stable cash flow
through a tolling agreement to 2019 with Constellation Energy
Commodities Group and relatively stable debt service coverage
ratios ranging between 1.0 x and 1.2x; partially mitigating the
somewhat low DSCRs is liquidity built up by the 1.35x distribution
hurdle.  Constellation Energy Group Inc. (BBB-/Stable/A-3)
guarantees CECG's tolling agreement obligations.

CFC is the funding vehicle for Cordoba Energy Co. LLC, the
operator of a 537 megawatt natural gas-fired, combined-cycle power
plant in Rock Island County, Ill that began commercial operation
in June 2001.  MidAmerican Energy Holdings Co. (BBB+/Stable)
wholly owns CFC and Cordova.

The recovery rating of '3' indicates the expectation of meaningful
recovery (50%-70%) of principal in the event of a default.

CYNERGY DATA: Has Plan Exclusivity Until October 28
---------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that Cynergy Data LLC received an October 28 extension of
its exclusive right to propose a Chapter 11 plan.  In its request
for a fourth extension, the Company said it should be in a
position to file a liquidating plan "in the near future."  Cynergy
said it negotiated a settlement in principle with secured lenders
that's delayed the case from the outset.

                        About Cynergy Data

Launched in 1995, Cynergy Data was a merchant credit card
processing service provider.  The Company and two affiliates --
Cynergy Data Holdings, LLC, and Cynergy Prosperity Plus, LLC --
filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on September 1, 2009
(Bankr. D. Del. Case No. 09-13038).  Cynergy Data said that it had
assets of $109.5 million against debts of $186.1 million as of
June 30, 2009.

The Company's legal advisor is Nixon Peabody LLP; its financial
and restructuring advisor is CM&D Management Services LLC; its
industry expert is Unicorn Partners, LLC; and its investment
bankers are Stifel, Nicolaus & Company and Peter J. Solomon
Company.  The Company also hired Pepper Hamilton LLP as bankruptcy
and restructuring counsel.  Charles D. Moore of Conway MacKenzie,
Inc., serves as chief restructuring officer.  Kurtzman Carson &
Consultants LLC serves as claims and notice agent.

Cynergy Data filed for Chapter 11 to complete the sale of all of
its assets to an affiliate of The ComVest Group.  The $81 million
sale of the assets was completed October 2009.  The Debtor was
renamed to Liquidation Co. LLC following the sale.


CYPRESS CREEK: Dist. Court Blesses Balloon Payment Plan
-------------------------------------------------------
WestLaw reports that the mere fact that Chapter 11 plans provided
for a balloon payment on a lender's $5.5 million claim, without
clearly specifying how that balloon payment would be funded, did
not render them infeasible and incapable of being confirmed. The
debtors, the owners and operators of an assisted living facility,
had been successfully making their monthly plan payments, which
were based on 20-year amortization of the lender's claim, while
also accumulating roughly $180,000 in cash since the cases were
filed. Moreover, the occupancy of the assisted living facility had
steadily increased, and the current lack of an efficient market
for the debtors to obtain financing did not mean that the market
could not turn around over the plan's six-year term.  SPCP Group,
LLC v. Cypress Creek Assisted Living Residence, Inc., --- B.R. ---
-, 2010 WL 3080968 (M.D. Fla.) (Lazzara, J.).

Cypress Creek Assisted Living Residence, Inc., and Cypress Creek
Assisted Living Residence Management, LLC are Chapter 11 debtors
(Bankr. M.D. Fla. Case Nos. 08-19481 and 09-02014).  Residence is
an assisted living facility in Sun City, Fla., with 110 beds, with
occupancy during the bankruptcy ranging from 86 to 93 beds.
Residence owns the assets of the business.  Management manages and
operates the facility with 40-some contract employees.  The
Debtors are represented by Bernard J. Morse, Esq. --
chipmorse@morsegomez.com -- at Morse & Gomez PA in Riverview, Fla.

SPCP Group, LLC, is Cypress Creek's mortgage holder, owed more
than $5 million.  The Honorable Michael G. Williamson confirmed a
chapter 11 plan for the Debtors that promised SPCP a 100% recovery
on its claim by making monthly payments for six years based on a
20-year amortization schedule with interest at 5.5% and a balloon
payment following payment of the 72nd installment.  The District
Court says Judge Williamson's analysis of the plan under Till v.
SCS Credit Corp., 541 U.S. 465, 124 S.Ct. 1951, 158 L.Ed.2d 787
(2004); his finding that the plan is feasible; and confirmation of
the Debtor's "cramdown" plan were appropriate.


DELTA AIR LINES: Court Expunges Wilmington Trust's Claim
--------------------------------------------------------
At Delta Air Lines' behest, Judge Cecelia G. Morris of the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of New York expunged
Claim No. 6223 filed by Wilmington Trust Company with respect to
Aircraft Tail Nos. N943CA, N945CA, N946CA, N947CA and N948CA.

The Claim arises from a confidential settlement agreement dated
July 15, 2008, among the Debtors, Comair Inc., with Export
Development Canada settling all matters with respect any interest
that EDC may have had in the Aircraft.  In October 2009, Comair
entered into a confidential settlement agreement with Wilmington
Trust, settling all matters with respect to any interest that
Wilmington Trust, in its individual capacity, may have had in a
number of aircraft, including the Aircraft.

Under each of those Agreements, the Parties have each agreed to
waive, release, and discharge the Reorganized Debtors from any
additional claims related to the Aircraft.  Notwithstanding the
Agreements, Claim No. 6223, filed by Wilmington Trust, remains on
the claims register.

The Debtors disclosed that no responses were received from
Wilmington Trust regarding the Claim disallowance.

DELTA AIR LINES: Has Deal With DP3 on Release of Information
------------------------------------------------------------
The Delta Pilot Pension Preservation Organization, Inc., submitted
to Judge Cecilia G. Morris of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York, a proposed order specifically
authorizing disclosure of necessary information to facilitate
operation of retiree benefit plans by a retiree voluntary employee
benefit association.

The Proposed Order is submitted jointly by Delta Air Lines, Inc.,
and DP3, Inc., and will be presented to the Court on August 30,

any, to the Proposed Order must received not later than 11:30 a.m.

voluntary employee benefit association to offer health,
prescription drug, dental and vision care benefits to Delta pilot
retirees, their spouses and dependents that are eligible for the
80% federal subsidy in the form of the Health Coverage Tax Credit.

Representing thousands of retired Delta pilots, DP3 had said that
the formation of a VEBA will allow Delta Retirees and their
dependents to save, collectively, millions of dollars through
federal tax subsidies for their critical health care benefits,
while allowing Delta to save considerable costs for many years
into the future.

DELTA AIR LINES: Second Qtr. Results Show $724MM Improvement
------------------------------------------------------------
Delta Air Lines, Inc., filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission a Form 10-Q dated July 30, 2010, detailing its
financial disclosures for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010.

Delta reported net income of $467 million in the June 2010
quarter, compared to a net loss of $257 million in the June 2009
quarter.  The $724 million improvement primarily reflects:

  (1) a strengthening of the airline industry revenue
      environment, including improving business travel, due to
      improving economic conditions; and

  (2) merger synergies.

These benefits were partially offset by higher fuel prices and
profit sharing expense in the June 2010 quarter, according to
Delta Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Hank
Halter.

Delta's total operating revenue increased $1.2 billion, or 17%, in
the June 2010 quarter on a 1% reduction in capacity, or available
seat miles, compared to the June 2009 quarter.  Passenger revenue
per available seat mile improved 19% driven by a 17% increase in
passenger mile yield and a 1.9 point increase in load factor,
reflecting an increase in demand for air travel and an increase in
fares.

"During the June 2009 quarter, the global recession and the
effects of the H1N1 virus had a significant negative impact on our
operating revenue," Mr. Halter noted.

Delta' net income for the June 2010 quarter includes:

  (1) a $46 million charge for merger-related items associated
      with Northwest and the integration of Northwest operations
      into Delta; and

  (2) a $36 million charge related to the impairment of retired
      B-747-200 aircraft.

Delta's net loss for the June 2009 quarter includes a $58 million
charge for merger-related items.

In an on-going effort to manage fuel price risk, Delta enters into
derivative instruments to hedge a portion of Delta's projected
aircraft fuel requirements.  As of June 30, 2010, the Company has
hedged approximately 50% of its projected fuel requirements for
the September 2010 quarter and six months ended December 31, 2010.

"Our current hedge portfolio primarily utilizes call options,
which help us to mitigate the risk of aircraft fuel price
increases, while allowing us downside participation through market
purchases should aircraft fuel prices decline," according to Mr.
Halter.

At June 30, 2010, Delta had $4.4 billion in cash and cash
equivalents, and $1.6 billion in undrawn revolving credit
facilities.  During the June 2010 quarter, cash provided by
operating activities was $1.0 billion.  During that period, Delta
repaid $1.3 billion in long-term debt and capital lease
obligations.  The Company also invested $196 million in property
and equipment, including the purchase of five previously owned MD-
90 aircraft and four previously leased B-757-200 aircraft.

Delta contributed to its defined benefit pension plans
$440 million in the June 2010 quarter and $225 million in the
March 2010 quarter.  As a result of the $665 million in
contributions for the six months ended June 30, 2010, Delta
satisfied, on an accelerated basis, its minimum required
contributions for its defined benefit pension plans for 2010.  In
July 2010, Delta completed a $450 million offering of Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 2010-1A.

                     Legal Proceedings

In May, June and July 2009, a number of purported class action
antitrust lawsuits were filed in the U.S. District Courts for the
Northern District of Georgia, the Middle District of Florida, and
the District of Nevada, against Delta and AirTran Airways.

The plaintiffs originally alleged that Delta and AirTran engaged
in collusive behavior in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act
in November 2008 based upon certain public statements made in
October 2008 by AirTran's CEO at an analyst conference concerning
fees for the first checked bag, Delta's imposition of a fee for
the first checked bag on November 4, 2008, and AirTran's
imposition of a similar fee on November 12, 2008.

The Plaintiffs sought to assert claims on behalf of an alleged
class consisting of passengers who paid the fist bag fee after
December 5, 2008, and seek injunctive relief and unspecified
treble damages.  All of these cases have been consolidated for
pre-trial proceedings in the Northern District of Georgia by the
Multi-District Litigation Panel.

In February 2010, the plaintiffs in the MDL proceeding filed a
Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint which substantially
expanded the scope of the original complaint.  In the Consolidated
Amended Complaint, the Plaintiffs add new allegations concerning
alleged signaling by both Delta and AirTran based on statements
made to the investment community by both carriers relating to
industry capacity levels during 2008-2009.

The Plaintiffs also add a new cause of action against Delta
alleging attempted monopolization in violation of Section 2 of
Sherman Act, paralleling a claim previously asserted against
AirTran but not Delta.  The Plaintiffs have advised that they do
not intend to seek certification of a class with respect to the
Section 2 Claims.

"Delta believes the claims in these cases are without merit and is
vigorously defending these lawsuits," Mr. Halter noted.

Delta has filed a motion to dismiss, and the Plaintiffs have filed
a motion to certify the Section 1 Class.  Both motions are
currently pending.

ENERGY FUTURE: 2 Units Ink Indenture with BNY for $2.18BB of Notes
------------------------------------------------------------------
Energy Future Intermediate Holding Company LLC and EFIH Finance
Inc., subsidiaries of Energy Future Holdings Corp., entered into
an indenture with The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.,
as trustee.

Pursuant to the Indenture, Energy Future Intermediate and EFIH, as
issuers, issued $2,180,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
10.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2020.  The Notes will mature on
December 1, 2020.  Interest on the Notes is payable in cash semi-
annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year at a
fixed rate of 10.000% per annum, and the first interest payment is
due on December 1, 2010.

The Notes are secured by EFIH's pledge of 100% of the membership
interests and other investments it owns in Oncor Electric Delivery
Holdings Company LLC.  Oncor Holdings currently owns an
approximate 80% equity interest in Oncor Electric Delivery Company
LLC.

The Notes are senior obligations of the Issuers and rank equally
in right of payment with all existing and future senior
indebtedness of the Issuers.  The Notes are effectively senior to
all unsecured indebtedness of the Issuers, to the extent of the
value of the Collateral, and are effectively subordinated to any
indebtedness of the Issuers secured by assets of the Issuers other
than the Collateral, to the extent of the value of the assets
securing such indebtedness. Furthermore, the Notes are:

   i) structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other
      liabilities of EFIH's subsidiaries, including Oncor Holdings
      and its subsidiaries, any of EFIH's future foreign
      subsidiaries and any other unrestricted subsidiaries and

  ii) senior in right of payment to any future subordinated
      indebtedness of the Issuers.

The Notes and the Indenture restrict the Issuers' and their
respective restricted subsidiaries' ability to, among other
things, make restricted payments, incur debt and issue preferred
stock, incur liens, permit dividend and other payment restrictions
on restricted subsidiaries, merge, consolidate or sell assets and
engage in transactions with affiliates.

These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations
and exceptions.  The Notes and the Indenture also contain
customary events of default, including, among others, failure to
pay principal or interest on the Notes or the guarantees when due.
If an event of default occurs under the Notes and the Indenture,
the trustee or the holders of at least 30% in principal amount
outstanding of the Notes may declare the principal amount on the
Notes to be due and payable immediately.  Currently, there are no
restricted subsidiaries under the Notes and the Indenture.
Oncor Holdings, Oncor, and their respective subsidiaries are
unrestricted subsidiaries under the Notes and the Indenture and,
accordingly, are not subject to any of the restrictive covenants
in the Notes and the Indenture.

The Issuers may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time
on or after December 1, 2015, at specified redemption prices, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any.  In addition, before December
1, 2013, the Issuers may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes from time to time at a redemption
price of 110.000% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, with the net cash
proceeds of certain equity offerings.  The Issuers may also redeem
the Notes at any time prior to December 1, 2015 at a price equal
to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid
interest and a "make-whole" premium. Upon the occurrence of a
change in control, the Issuers must offer to repurchase the Notes
at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any.

The Notes were issued in exchange for certain existing notes of
EFH Corp., pursuant to previously announced exchange offers.  The
Issuers did not receive any cash proceeds from the exchange
offers.

                           *     *     *

Energy Future Holdings and its units carry a 'Caa2/LD' probability
of default rating from Moody's Investors Service and a 'CCC'
issuer default rating from Fitch Ratings.

As reported in the TCR on August 18, 2010, Moody's changed the
probability of default rating for Energy Future Holdings Corp. to
Caa2/LD from Ca following the completion of a debt restructuring
which Moody's views as a distressed exchange.  FH's Caa1 CFR and
SGL-4 liquidity rating were affirmed.  "The affirmation of EFH's
Caa1 CFR considers the very weak financial profile, untenable
capital structure, questionable long-term business plan and
material operating headwinds for the company," Moody's said.

FX REAL ESTATE: Has Subscription Deals with Execs. & Shareholders
-----------------------------------------------------------------
FX Real Estate and Entertainment Inc. entered on Aug. 17, 2010,
into subscription agreements with certain of its directors,
executive officers and greater than 10% stockholders, pursuant to
which the Purchasers purchased from the Company an aggregate of
150 units a purchase price of $1,000 per Unit.

Each Unit consists of (x) one share of the Company's newly created
and issued Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value
per share , and (y) a warrant to purchase up to 12,507.8 shares of
the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.2399 per
share.  The Warrants are exercisable for a period of 5 years.

The Company created 2,500 shares of Series B Convertible Stock by
filing a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of
the State of Delaware thereby amending its Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, as amended.  The Company issued and
sold an aggregate of 150 shares of the Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock as part of the Units and has 2,350 authorized
shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock that remain
available for future issuance under the Series B Certificate of
Designation.

The designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the qualifications,
limitations and restrictions thereof are contained in the Series B
Certificate of Designation and are summarized as follows:

* The shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock have an
   initial stated value of $1,000 per share, which is subject to
   increase periodically to include accrued and unpaid dividends
   thereon.

* The shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled
   to receive quarterly cumulative cash dividends at a rate equal
   to 8% per annum of the Stated Value whenever funds are legally
   available and when and as declared by the Company's board of
   directors.  The dividend rights of the Series B Convertible
   Preferred Stock are on a parity with the dividend rights of the
   Company's outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

* Each share of Series B Convertible Stock are convertible into
   shares of Company common stock at a conversion prices equal to
   120% of the weighted average closing price per share of Company
   common stock as reported on the Pink Sheets over the 30-day
   period immediately preceding the applicable date of issuance.
   The Conversion Price is subject to adjustment to give effect to
   dividends, stock splits, recapitalizations and similar events
   affecting the shares of Company common stock.  The Conversion
   Price of the 150 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
   sold as part of the Units is $0.1919 per share.

* The shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are
   convertible, at the option of the holders, into shares of
   Company common stock at the Conversion Price if at any time the
   closing price of the shares of Company common stock is at the
   Conversion Price for ten consecutive trading days.  The shares
   of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible each
   time for a period of 60-days thereafter.

* Upon the earlier of: (x) consummation of the Company's sale of
   its capital stock from which the Company generates net proceeds
   of at least $25 million or (y) the fifth anniversary of the
   date of their issuance the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
   shall automatically convert into the number of shares of
   Company common stock equal to the then current Stated Value
   divided by the Conversion Price.

* If at any time the closing price of the shares of Company
   common stock is at least 10 times the applicable weighted
   average closing price per share of Company common stock as
   reported on the Pink Sheets over the 30-day period immediately
   preceding the applicable date of issuance of a particular share
   of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for 15 consecutive
   trading days, the Company may redeem the outstanding Series B
   Convertible Preferred Stock at the then current Stated Value.
   The shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are
   redeemable each time in whole or in part for a period of 120-
   days thereafter.  The closing price of a share of Company
   common stock at which the 150 shares of Series B Convertible
   Preferred Stock sold as part of the Units become redeemable is
   $1.59 per share.

* The shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are senior
   in liquidation preference to the shares of Company common stock
   and on parity with the Company's outstanding Series A
   Convertible Preferred Stock.

* The shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock vote on an
   as-converted to common stock basis as a class with the
   outstanding shares of Company common stock and the Company's
   outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

* The consent of the holders of 51% of the outstanding shares of
   Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall be necessary for the
   Company to:

     i) increase the authorized number of shares of Series B
        Convertible Preferred Stock or alter, amend or change any
        of the terms, designations, powers, privileges or rights
        or restrictions provided for the benefit of the Series B
        Convertible Preferred Stock;

    ii) create or issue any Company capital stock having rights,
        preferences or privileges senior to or on parity with the
        Series B Convertible Preferred Stock; or

   iii) amend the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of
        Incorporation or Bylaws in a manner that is materially
        adverse to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

* From the date on which at least 1,667 shares of Series B
   Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company's
   board of directors is required to increase the its size by one
   member and cause such resulting vacancy to be filled by a
   director designated by the holders of a majority of the then
   outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.
   From the Series B Director Commencement Date until the date
   on which less than 50% of the shares of Series B Convertible
   Preferred Stock outstanding on the Series B Director
   Commencement Date are outstanding, the holders of the Series B
   Convertible Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class, have
   the right to elect one Class B Director to the Company's board
   of directors at each meeting of stockholders or each consent of
   the Company's stockholders for the election of directors, and
   to remove from office such Class B Director and to fill the
   vacancy caused by the resignation, death or removal of such
   Class B Director.  Each share of Series B Convertible Preferred
   Stock is entitled to one vote and any election or removal of
   the Class B Director shall be subject to the affirmative vote
   of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
   Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

The Closing Price of any shares of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock issued and sold after August 17, 2010 will vary because the
Closing Price as determined under the Series B Certificate of
Designation is equal to the weighted average closing price per
share of Company common stock as reported on the Pink Sheets over
the 30-day period immediately preceding the date of issuance of
each such share.  The variance in the Closing Prices of any shares
of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued and sold after
August 17, 2010 will also cause variances in their respective
Conversion Prices and, as such, on the prices at which any such
shares are redeemable and the amount of shares of Company common
stock into which any such shares are convertible.  The Stated
Values of any shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
issued and sold after Aug. 17, 2010 also may vary if dividends
accrue thereon without being paid because of variances in the
dates on which dividends thereon begin accruing.  The designation,
powers, preferences and rights of the shares of Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock are on parity with those of the
Company's outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

Because the transaction involved certain of the Company's
directors and their affiliates, the transaction was approved by a
majority of the Company's disinterested directors.  The Company
generated aggregate proceeds of $150,000 from the sale of the
Units pursuant to the Subscription Agreements.  The Company
intends to use the proceeds to fund working capital requirements
and for general corporate purposes.

JUNIPER GENERATION: Moody's Affirms 'Ba3' Rating on Senior Bonds
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed Juniper Generation LLC's Ba3
rating on the senior secured bonds and changed the outlook to
stable from negative.

The rating affirmation reflects Juniper's ability to manage Short
Run Avoided Cost's transition to the new Market Index Formula
which was implemented in August 2009.  SRAC represents the energy
price received by Juniper's underlying power projects that
continue to remain as collateral for the senior secured bonds.
While the transition to MIF has negatively affected Juniper's
underlying project cash flows, Juniper's financial performance has
been supported by substantially greater distributions from WCAC
Operating Company, Juniper's O&M affiliate.  Moody's estimates
senior debt service coverage at year-end 2009 was approximately
1.5 times according to Moody's calculations.  Additionally, low
natural gas prices and the O&M adder under MIF have minimized the
impact of the low market heat rate currently used in MIF.  From
August 2009 to August 2010, the market heat rate embedded in MIF
has averaged around 7,300 btu/kwh leading to the blended heat rate
of 8,550 btu/kwh used in MIF.  That said, the Ba3 rating also
considers Juniper's continued exposure to potentially significant
under recovery of fuel costs if the market heat rate weakens or if
natural gas prices substantially increase since Juniper's
underlying power projects have heat rates ranging from around
9,035 btu/kwh to 9,600 btu/kwh.

The Ba3 rating also recognizes that Juniper's debt service
coverage ratios could drop below 1.2 times in the last two years
prior to bond maturity based on rough estimates by Moody's.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Juniper
should achieve debt service coverage ratio around 1.2 to 1.35x for
the next few years based on moderately increasing market heat rate
and natural gas prices.

Juniper could face negative rating pressure if SRAC were to
further change which could negatively affect Juniper's cash flows,
natural gas prices spike well above forward prices, if Juniper
incurs debt service coverage ratios below 1.2 times or if the
underlying projects incur operational problems.

Juniper's rating could improve if SRAC is modified such that
Juniper is no longer exposed to market forces and Juniper is able
to sustain debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.3 times
through debt maturity based on cash flow from the underlying power
projects.

Juniper is a holding company for fully or partially owned gas-
fired cogeneration projects in California, a related O&M service
company, WCAC Operating Company California LLC and a related fuel
supply services company, WCAC Gas Services, LLC.  All the projects
operate as a Qualifying Facility as defined under the Public
Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA).  The projects
sell energy and capacity to Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E: A3 Sr
Unsec, Stable Outlook) and Southern California Edison (SCE: A3 Sr
Unsec, Stable Outlook).  Approximately five of Juniper's nine
projects remain as collateral for the senior secured bonds and the
senior secured bonds are not recourse to the remaining four
projects.  ArcLight Energy Partners Fund II, a fund managed by
ArcLight Capital Partners, owns 100% of the equity interests in
Juniper.

The last rating action on Juniper occurred on March 31, 2009, when
the rating downgraded from Ba1 to Ba3 with a negative outlook.


KAISER GROUP: Appeals Dismissal of Suit vs. Squire Sanders
----------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Kaiser Group International Inc. has
appealed the dismissal of its malpractice suit, alleging Squire
Sanders & Dempsey LLP failed to warn the bankrupt company that a
particular class of creditors had the right to seize hundreds of
thousands of shares of the reorganized entity.  Thomas G. Macauley
of Zuckerman Spaeder LLP filed a notice of appeal on behalf of
Kaiser in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware
on Tuesday.

Kaiser sued (Bankr. D.C. Adv. Pro. No. 08-10020) Squire Sanders &
Dempsey LLP in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia on
July 3, 2008.  The law firm removed the litigation to the U.S.
District Court, which automatically referred it to the Bankruptcy
Court on July 31, 2008.  The Honorable S. Martin Teel, Jr., denied
Kaiser's request for remand or abstention, and granted the law
firm's request to transfer the adversary proceeding to the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.

Kaiser says that Squire Sanders was negligent in drafting its
chapter 11 plan "in a manner that was not in compliance with
Bankruptcy Code" by failing to separately classify a claim

reporting a net loss of $2.01 million on net revenue of $304,700

Oragenics' balance sheet at June 30, 2010, showed total assets of
$1.68 million, total liabilities of $1.76 million, and a
shareholders' deficit of $81,723.

Kirkland Russ Murphy & Tapp, PA in Clearwater, Florida expressed
substantial doubt about Oragenics, Inc.'s ability to continue as a
going concern after auditing the Company's financial statements
for the fiscal years ended Dec. 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007.  The
auditor noted that the Company incurred recurring operating
losses, negative operating cash flows and has an accumulated
deficit.

In the Form 10-Q, management acknowledges, "We have never been
profitable and, as of June 30, 2010, we had an accumulated deficit
of $29,269,304.  We incurred net losses of approximately
$3,757,421, $5,519,348, $6,021,742 and $2,311,712 for the six
months ended June 30, 2010 and the years ended December 31, 2009,
2008 and 2007, respectively.  We expect to incur significant and
increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future as we
advance our product candidates through preclinical studies and
clinical trials to seek regulatory approval and eventual
commercialization.  We will need additional financing to support
our operating activities."

ORANGE COUNTY: Has Until September 8 to Use American Honda's Cash
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California
has continued until September 8, 2010, at 10:00 a.m., the hearing
to consider Orange County Motorsports, Inc.'s further access to
American Honda Finance Corporation's cash collateral.

The Bankruptcy Court previously entered an order allowing the
Debtor to use cash collateral until September 8; and to grant
replacement liens as adequate protection to the AHFC.

a "blanket" security interest in all tangible and intangible
property of the Debtor.  That security interest includes a first-
priority "purchase money" security interest in the motor vehicles
in the Debtor's inventory for which AHFC provided "floor plan"
financing, and the proceeds thereof.  AHFC possesses a very junior
security interest -- behind those of GE, Polaris and Kawasaki,
which secure debts that are believed to total over $1 million.

Company, Inc., which filed for Chapter 11 protection on August 25,

or financial condition.

Wilmington Trust's CCS business offers institutional trustee,
agency, asset management, retirement plan, and administrative
services for clients worldwide who use capital market financing
structures, as well as those who seek to establish or maintain
nexus, or legal residency, for special purpose entities. Because
Wilmington Trust does not underwrite securities offerings or
provide investment banking services, it is able to deliver
corporate trust services that are conflict-free.

PMP II: Bankruptcy Court Confirms Plan of Reorganization
--------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas
confirmed PMP II, LLC's Plan of Reorganization.

The Debtor's principal asset is an 69-acre parcel of vacant land
known as Paradise Memorial Park or Hawaii Kai Memorial Park
located at Hawaii Kai Drive, Honolulu, Hawaii.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Julu 27, 2010, the
Plan provides for a reorganization of all liabilities owed by the
Debtor.  The Debtor will convey the Property to HKMP, LLC, in
exchange for a 25%, non-dilutable membership interest in HKMP,
LLC, the venture created to develop the Property into a cemetery.
As a member of HKMP, LLC, the Reorganized Debtor will be entitled
to cash distributions as the Property is developed and revenue is
generated from the sale of burial plots, niches, crypts and other
services.

Under the Plan, the claim of the Hawaiians (Class 3) will be
converted to an equity interest in HKMP, LLC.  The Hawaiians claim
will be converted to a 75% equity interest in HKMP, LLC, which
interest will be allocated pursuant to the Limited Liability
Company Operating Agreement of HKMP, LLC.  The remaining 25%
equity interest in HKMP, LLC will belong to the Reorganized Debtor
and be non-dilutable.  The Debtor will contribute, transfer and
convey all right, title and interest in the property to HKMP, LLC
in exchange for a 25% membership interest in HKMP, LLC.

Holders of general unsecured claims (Class 4) will receive 100% of
their allowed claims out of the cash distributions payable to the
Reorganized Debtor until general unsecured creditors are paid in
full.

RADIO ONE: Issues Bankruptcy Warning as Forbearance Expiry Looms
----------------------------------------------------------------
Radio One Inc., warned in a regulatory filing with the Securities

Radio One said in its Form 10-Q report filed on Monday, "We have
been actively engaged with the lenders under our Credit Agreement
as well as with our bondholders to implement certain Refinancing
Transactions to solve both for the defaults under the Credit
Agreement and for our upcoming debt maturities.  We anticipate
that if we complete the Refinancing Transactions, we will cure or
otherwise obtain a waiver of any defaults under the Credit
Agreement and the 2013 Notes Indenture.  However, there is no
assurance that we will complete the Refinancing Transactions and
that an event of default under the 2013 Notes Indenture will not
arise.

"If we are unable to further amend the Forbearance Agreement or
otherwise obtain waivers from our lenders under the Credit
Agreement, an event of default under our 2013 Notes Indenture may
arise causing a cross-default under our Credit Agreement,
resulting in the acceleration of all of our indebtedness
thereunder.  The trustee under the 2013 Notes Indenture would also
have the right to accelerate our indebtedness under the 2013
Notes, and accordingly, we have classified our long-term debt as a
current obligation in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets.

"Either of these events would make it difficult for us to operate
our business in the ordinary course, and may force us to seek
protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and
accordingly, there is substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern," the Company said.

In June 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with a
syndicate of banks.  The Credit Agreement expires the earlier of
(a) six months prior to the scheduled maturity of the 8-7/8%
Senior Subordinated Notes due July 1, 2011 (January 1, 2011) --
unless the 8-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes have been refinanced
or repurchased prior to such date -- or (b) June 30, 2012.
Management believes it is probable that the Company will refinance
the 8-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes prior to January 1, 2011.

As of each of June 30, 2010 and July 1, 2010, Radio One is not in
compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.  More
specifically, (i) as of June 30, 2010, Radio One failed to
maintain a total leverage ratio of 7.25 to 1.00 and (ii) as of
July 1, 2010, as a result of a step down of the total leverage
ratio from no greater than 7.25 to 1.00 to no greater than 6.50 to
1.00 effective for the period July 1, 2010 to September 30, 2011,
we also failed to maintain the requisite total leverage ratio.

In July 2010, as reported by the Troubled Company Reporter, the
Company and its subsidiaries entered into a forbearance agreement
with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (successor by merger to Wachovia Bank,
National Association), as administrative agent, and financial
institutions constituting the majority of outstanding loans and
commitments under the Credit Agreement, relating to the existing
defaults and events of default.

On August 13, 2010, as reported by the TCR, Radio One entered into
an amendment to the Forbearance Agreement that, among other
things, extended the termination date of the Forbearance Agreement
to September 10, 2010, unless terminated earlier by its terms, and
provided additional forbearance related to an anticipated default
that may be caused by an opinion of Radio One's independent
registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP, that
included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  Under
the Forbearance Agreement and the Forbearance Agreement Amendment,
the Agent and the Required Lenders maintained the right to deliver
"payment blockage notices" to the trustees for the holders of the
8-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 and/or the 6-3/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2013.

On August 5, 2010, the Agent delivered a payment blockage notice
to the Trustee under the Indenture governing the 2013 Notes.
Under the terms of the Indenture, neither the Company nor any of
its guaranteeing subsidiaries may make any payment or distribution
of any kind or character in respect of obligations under the 2013
Notes, including, without limitation, the interest payment to the
noteholders that was scheduled for August 15, 2010.  The Indenture
permits a 30-day grace period for the nonpayment of interest
before such nonpayment constitutes an event of default, in which
case the Trustee or holders of at least 25% in principal amount of
the then outstanding 2013 Notes may declare the principal amount,
and accrued and unpaid interest on all outstanding 2013 Notes to
be due and payable immediately.

The lenders under the Credit Agreement have not accelerated the
indebtedness thereunder and the Company continues to actively
pursue various financing alternatives with its lenders and the
members of an ad hoc group of the holders of its 2011 Notes and
2013 Notes.

Wells Fargo tapped Loughlin Meghji + Company and Morgan, Lewis &
Bockius LLP in restructuring talks with Radio One, Inc.  Radio One
owes the lenders $355,480,159.99 under the Credit Agreement,
excluding fees, expenses and other amounts.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on August 26, 2010,
Standard & Poor's Rating Services lowered its corporate credit
rating on Radio One to 'SD' (selective default) from CCC+' because
of its failure to make the Aug. 15, 2010, interest payment on its
6.375% subordinated notes due 2013.  Bank lenders blocked the
interest payment due to ongoing financial covenant violations in
its credit agreement.  Notwithstanding this covenant violation,
S&P believes the company has the financial capacity and liquidity
to meet its debt obligations.

At the same time, S&P lowered the issue-level rating on Radio
One's 6.375% subordinated notes to 'D' from 'CCC-', while keeping
the recovery rating on this debt unchanged at '6', indicating
S&P's expectation of negligible (0% to 10%) recovery in the event
of a payment default.


RAME PROPERTIES: Section 341(a) Meeting Scheduled for Sept. 23
--------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Trustee for Region 21 will convene a meeting of Rame
Properties, LLC's creditors on September 23, 2010, at 3:00 p.m.,
at Third Floor - Room 365, Russell Federal Building, 75 Spring
Street SW, Atlanta, GA 30303.

This is the first meeting of creditors required under Section
341(a) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in all bankruptcy cases.

All creditors are invited, but not required, to attend.  This
Meeting of Creditors offers the one opportunity in a bankruptcy
proceeding for creditors to question a responsible office of the
Debtor under oath about the company's financial affairs and
operations that would be of interest to the general body of
creditors.

Rame Properties Inc. is a real-estate development company in
Dunwoody, Georgia.  It filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection
August 18 in Atlanta, Georgia (Bankr. N.D. Ga. Case No. 10-83988).
It estimated its assets at $10 million and debts at $50 million as
of the Petition Date.


RAME PROPERTIES: Asks for Dismissal; Gives Up to Receiver
---------------------------------------------------------
Rame Properties, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Georgia to dismiss its Chapter 11 case.

CML-GA Rame, LLC, is the Debtor's major secured creditor, and is
owed approximately $12 million secured by virtually all of the
assets of the Debtor's estate, including its cash collateral.  On
August 16, 2010, CML-GA Rame filed an action against the Debtor
and its subsidiaries in the Superior court of DeKalb county
alleging breach of contract on each of the notes.  The Superior
court appointed Hays Financial Consulting, LLC, as receiver to
take custody and control of the Debtor's property and to manage
the same.

The Debtor believes that the receiver is in the best position to
manage and control the assets of the Debtor on behalf of CML-GA
Rame to protect its interest.  The Debtor believes that dismissal,
rather than conversion to Chapter 7, is in the best interest of
the Debtor's estate, because there are no unencumbered assets for
the trustee to liquidate, and additional time and expense would be
wasted.

The Court will hold a hearing on September 29, 2010, at 10:00 a.m.
on the Debtor's motion to dismiss its bankruptcy case.

RCLC INC: Court Extends Filing of Schedules Until Sept. 17
----------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Michael B. Kaplan of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of New Jersey extended, at the behest of RCLC, Inc., et
al., the deadline for the filing of schedules of assets and
liabilities and statements of financial affairs until September
17, 2010.  The Debtor had asked the Court for an extension of 30
days.

                          About RCLC Inc.

RCLC, Inc., formerly known as Ronson Corporation, in Woodbridge,
New Jersey, historically, has been engaged principally in these
businesses -- Consumer Products; and Aviation-Fixed Wing and
Helicopter Services.

Trenton, New Jersey-based Ronson Aviation, Inc., filed for Chapter
11 protection on August 17, 2010 (Bankr. D. N.J. Case No. 10-
35315).  The Debtor estimated its assets at $10 million to $50
million and its debts at $1 million to $10 million.  Affiliates
RCLC, Inc. (Bankr. D. N.J. Case No. 10-35313), and RCPC
Liquidating Corporation (Bankr. D. N.J. Case No. 10-35318) filed
separate Chapter 11 petitions on August 17, 2010, each estimating
their assets at $1 million to $10 million and debts at $1 million
to $10 million.

Michael D. Sirota, Esq., at Cole, Schotz, Meisel, Forman &
Leonard, assists the Debtors their restructuring effort.

The Company's foreign subsidiary, RCC, Inc., formerly known as
Ronson Corporation of Canada Ltd. is not included in the filing.

On August 19, the Court granted Ronson Aviation's motion for joint
administration, making RCLC as the lead case.


RCLC INC: Owes $1.9 Million in Fees to Former CRO
-------------------------------------------------
RCLC Inc., formerly Ronson Corp., said in an Aug. 23 Form 10-Q
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that the
engagement agreement with Getzler Henrich & Associates, LLC,
expired on August 17, 2010, upon its bankruptcy filing.

In January 2009, at the request of lender Wells Fargo, the Company
engaged the consulting firm to assist in managing its operations
and cash requirements.  The engagement subsequently was expanded,
in accordance with the company's obligations under a forbearance
agreement with Wells Fargo, to retain Joel Getzler of Getzler
Henrich as the Company's Chief Restructuring Officer responsible
for operations, finance, accounting and related administrative
issues, subject to the authority of and reporting to the Company's
Board of Directors.  Pursuant to the engagement, Mr. Getzler
agreed to act as CRO during the period that Wells Fargo continued
to make revolving advances to the Company in an amount sufficient
to fund the Company's cash flow needs.

RCLC said it owes Getzler Henrich $1,995,000 in fees at August 17,
2010, the date of termination of the engagement; and pursuant to
the terms of the engagement, Getzler Henrich is a secured creditor
as to such amounts.

The Company and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries have
filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.  The bankruptcy
petitions are part of ongoing actions taken by the Company to sell
off its assets and subsidiaries, wind up its business, and attempt
to preserve the value of the Company for its stakeholders.

The Company sold its consumer products business to Zippo
Manufacturing Company for an adjusted purchase price of $10.48
million in cash.  Proceeds of that sale were used to repay a
portion of its loan balances, interest and fees in the amount of
approximately $3.138 million.  Under the Forbearance Agreement,
the overadvance limit was $2,275,000 and the maximum revolving
credit line was $2,500,000 and Wells Fargo agreed to extend the
forbearance agreement through August 16, 2010.

The Company's contemplated sale of the assets of Ronson Aviation
to Hawthorne TTN Holdings, LLC, fell through due in June to
Hawthone's inability to secure financing.  Hawthorne had offered
$9.5 million in cash subject to certain adjustments.  After
extensive deliberation, the Company's Board determined that a sale
through a Chapter 11 process was the most prudent and effective
course of action.  The Forbearance Agreement was terminated upon
the filing of the bankruptcy petitions and Wells Fargo has
committed to provide DIP financing on an interim basis as approved
by the Bankruptcy Court on August 19, 2010.

The Company has been engaged in discussions with other potential
purchasers for the assets of Ronson Aviation and expects that an
orderly sale of such assets will be managed under the Chapter 11
proceedings.  Upon the completion of the sale of Ronson Aviation,
the Company believes that it will have sufficient funds to pay all
amounts due to its secured creditors, but will have remaining
liabilities to other creditors in excess of its assets.

REGAL ENTERTAINMENT: Inks Underwriting Deal With Credit Suisse
--------------------------------------------------------------
Regal Entertainment Group entered into an Underwriting Agreement
dated Aug. 10, 2010, with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC,
Barclays Capital Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC and Deutsche
Bank Securities Inc., as the representatives of the underwriters
named on Schedule A thereto, with respect to the Company's
issuance and sale of $275.0 million in aggregate principal amount
of the Company's 9.125% senior notes due 2018.

On Aug. 16, 2010, the Company issued the Notes under an indenture
dated as of August 16, 2010 with Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association, as trustee.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 9.125% per year, payable
semiannually in arrears in cash on February 15 and August 15 of
each year.  The Notes mature on August 15, 2018. The Notes are
the Company's senior unsecured obligations.  They rank on parity
with all of the Company's existing and future senior unsecured
indebtedness and prior to all of the Company's subordinated
indebtedness.  The Notes are effectively subordinated to all of
the Company's future secured indebtedness to the extent of the
assets securing that indebtedness and to any indebtedness and
other liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries.  None of the
Company's subsidiaries initially guarantee any of the Company's
obligations with respect to the Notes.

Prior to Aug. 15, 2014, the Company may redeem all or any part of
the Notes at its option at 100% of the principal amount plus a
make-whole premium.  The Company may redeem the Notes in whole or
in part at any time on or after August 15, 2014 at the redemption
prices specified in the Indenture.  In addition, prior to August
15, 2013, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the original
aggregate principal amount of Notes from the net proceeds of
certain equity offerings at the redemption price specified in the
Indenture.

If the Company undergoes a change of control, holders may require
the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes at a
price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes being
repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the
repurchase date.

The Indenture contains covenants that limit the Company's ability
to, among other things:

   i) incur additional indebtedness;

  ii) pay dividends on or make other distributions in respect of
      its capital stock, purchase or redeem capital stock, or
      purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire certain
      subordinated obligations;

iii) enter into certain transactions with affiliates;

  iv) permit, directly or indirectly, it to create, incur, or
      suffer to exist any lien, except in certain circumstances;

   v) create or permit encumbrances or restrictions on its ability
      to pay dividends or make distributions on its capital stock,
      make loans or advances to its subsidiaries, or transfer any
      properties or assets to its subsidiaries; and

  vi) merge or consolidate with other companies or transfer all or
      substantially all of its assets.

These covenants are, however, subject to a number of important
limitations and exceptions. The Indenture contains other customary
terms, including, but not limited to, events of default, which,
if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal,
premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on
all the then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately.

SAINT VINCENTS: Competing Bids for 2 Nursing Homes Due Sept. 14
---------------------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that St. Vincent Catholic Medical Centers will hold
auctions on Sept. 21 for two nursing homes in Brooklyn, the Holy
Family Home and the Bishop Mugavero Center for Geriatric Care.
Nursing home operators Kenneth Rozenberg and Daryl Hagler will buy
the 200-bed Holy Family for $16.88 million and the 288-bed
Mugavero for $30.12 million, absent higher and better bids.  Under
court-approved procedures, competing bids are due Sept. 14.  The
hearing to approve the sales is set for Oct. 7.

                            About SVCMC

Saint Vincents Catholic Medical Centers -- http://www.svcmc.org/
-- was anchored by St. Vincent's Hospital Manhattan, an academic
medical center located in Greenwich Village and the only emergency
room on the Westside of Manhattan from Midtown to Tribeca, St.
Vincent's Westchester, a behavioral health hospital in Westchester
County, and continuing care services that include two skilled
nursing facilities in Brooklyn, another on Staten Island, a
hospice, and a home health agency serving the Metropolitan New
York area.

Saint Vincent Catholic Medical Centers of New York and six of its
affiliates first filed for Chapter 11 protection on July 5, 2005
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 05-14945 through 05-14951).

St. Vincents Catholic Medical Centers returned to bankruptcy court
by filing another Chapter 11 petition April 14, 2010 (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-11963).  The new petition listed assets of
$348 million against debt totaling $1.09 billion.

Although the hospitals emerged from the prior reorganization in
July 2007 with a Chapter 11 plan said to have a "a realistic
chance" of paying all creditors in full, the bankruptcy left the
medical center with more than $1 billion in debt.  The new filing
occurred after a $64 million operating loss in 2009 and the last
potential buyer terminated discussions for taking over the
flagship hospital.

Adam C. Rogoff, Esq., and Kenneth H. Eckstein, Esq., at Kramer
Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP, represent the Debtor in its
Chapter 11 effort.

SUCCESSOR BORROWER: Marianne O'Toole Appointed Chapter 11 Trustee
-----------------------------------------------------------------
WestLaw reports that a six-sentence application by the Acting
United States Trustee for court approval, as a Chapter 11 trustee,
of an individual who lived hundreds of miles from the courthouse
and who, to best of the court's knowledge, had never served as a
trustee nor appeared in any case filed in that judicial district,
was woefully lacking in the information that the court needed to
conduct a deliberative review of the proposed appointment.  While
the application indicated that the individual had been selected in
consultation with creditors, it provided no information as to the
results of that consultation or whether creditors supported the
appointment, provided no details as to the individual's
qualifications to serve as a trustee, and did not explain what
considerations motivated the U.S. Trustee to select, as a
prospective trustee, an individual who lived hundreds of miles
away and whose appointment would necessitate additional, and
perhaps substantial, transportation costs for the estate.  In re
Successor Borrower Services, LLC, --- B.R. ----, 2010 WL 3155816
(Bankr. W.D.N.Y.) (Bucki, C.J.).

At the behest of the U.S. Trustee and a creditor, Chief Judge
Bucki found cause under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 1104(a) for appointment of
a chapter 11 trustee in the Debtor's case.  "[C]onstantly mindful
of the need for economy in the administration of bankruptcy
cases," Chief Judge Bucki says in his ruling dated Aug. 4, 2010,
that he doesn't see eye-to-eye with the U.S. Trustee's about the
individual to fill that role.

Following this decision, the U.S. Trustee presented Chief Judge
Bucki with an Application to appoint:

         Marianne T. O'Toole, Esq.
         Marianne T. O'Toole, LLC
         20 Valley Road, Suite 1
         Katonah, NY 10536
         Telephone: 914-232-1511
         E-mail: motoole@otoolegroup.com

as the Chapter 11 Trustee, and Chief Judge Bucki approved that
request at a hearing on Aug. 10, 2010.

From 1993 to 2002, Ms. O'Toole served as an Assistant United
States Attorney for the Southern District of New York.  During her
tenure with the United States Attorney's Office, Ms. O'Toole
represented the United States and its agencies in all phases of
civil litigation, including trials and appeals in both federal and
state court.  She was responsible for a range of cases involving
commercial law, tax, bankruptcy, fair housing, employment law,
constitutional law, environmental law, and tort law.

Between 2000 and 2002, Ms. O'Toole served as Chief of the Tax and
Bankruptcy Unit within the Civil Division of the United States
Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York.  In that
capacity, she supervised and handled hundreds of bankruptcy cases
on behalf of the United States of America and its agency in the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New
York.  These cases included Nextwave, Enron, Global Crossing, and
Leslie Fay.  In 2000 and 2001, Ms. O'Toole was selected as a
member of the Strategic Planning Committee of the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

Prior to joining the United States Attorney's Office, Ms. O'Toole
was a law clerk to the Honorable Charles L. Brieant, then Chief
Judge for the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York.  Ms. O'Toole has practiced law in New York
since 1989 when she was an associate at Chadbourne & Parke.  She
received her J.D. in 1989 from Pace University School of Law,

SUPERIOR BANCORP: Defers Payment on Trust Preferred Shares
----------------------------------------------------------
Consistent with its previously announced capital optimization
plan, Superior Bancorp has deferred regularly scheduled interest
payments on all issues of its junior subordinated notes relating
to its five different issues of trust preferred securities
aggregating $122 million in principal amount currently
outstanding.  This action has no impact on the operation of
Superior Bank, the Company's principal subsidiary.  During the
deferral period, the respective trusts will likewise suspend the
declaration and payment of dividends on the trust preferred
securities.  The terms of the junior subordinated notes and the
related documents governing the respective issues of trust
preferred securities contemplate the possibility of such deferrals
and allow the Company to defer payments without default or
penalty.  The deferrals are for up to five years.

So long as interest is deferred on the junior subordinated notes
and corresponding distributions are deferred on the trust
preferred securities, interest will continue to accrue on the
junior subordinated notes, and that deferred interest will also
accrue interest.  The Company may terminate the deferrals and
resume payments at any time.  Upon the termination or expiration
of the deferrals, all accrued and unpaid interest will be due and
payable on the junior subordinated notes, and a corresponding
amount of distributions will be payable on the trust preferred
securities.

Also, during the deferral periods, the Company may not, among
other things and with limited exceptions, pay cash dividends on or
repurchase its common stock or preferred stock nor make any
payment on outstanding debt obligations that rank equally with or
junior to the junior subordinated notes.  Accordingly, the Company
has also suspended the cash payment of dividends on its preferred
stock aggregating $11 million in principal amount currently
outstanding.

The Company estimates that the deferral of interest payments on
the junior subordinated notes and the suspension of cash dividends
on the preferred stock will preserve approximately $7 million per
year in cash flow.

Superior Bancorp is a Delaware-chartered nondiversified unitary
savings and loan holding company headquartered in Birmingham,
Alabama.  Superior Bancorp offers a broad range of banking and
related services in Alabama and Florida through Superior Bank, its
principal subsidiary.  Superior Bancorp's balance sheet shoed
$3.3 billion in assets and $3.2 billion in liabilities at June 30,
2009.


SUSPECT DETECTION: Posts $85,100 Net Loss in June 30 Quarter

The Company's balance sheet as of June 30, 2010, showed
$2.0 million in total assets, $848,235 in total liabilities, and
stockholders' equity of $1.1 million.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on April 22, 2010,
Davis Accounting Group P.C., in Cedar City, Utah, expressed
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern, following its 2009 results.  The independent
auditors noted that the Company has not established sufficient
sources of revenue to cover its operating costs and expenses.

In its latest 10-Q, the company discloses that as of June 30,
2010, it had an accumulated deficit of approximately $1.6 million.

TAYLOR BEAN: Creditors Committee Seeks National Union Documents
---------------------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors for
Taylor Bean & Whitaker Mortgage Corp. seeks bankruptcy court
permission to conduct an investigation of National Union Fire
Insurance Co. of Pittsburgh, Pa., the provider of $5 million in
officers' and directors' liability insurance coverage to the
Debtor.

According to the report, the Committee says that Taylor Bean has
claims of its own under the policy to cover the cost of
governmental investigations.  The Committee believes National
Union, a subsidiary of American International Group Inc., intends
to pay the claims of individual officers and directors before the
company's claims.

The Committee's F.R.B.P. Rule 2004 motion is scheduled for hearing
on Sept. 10.

                         About Taylor Bean

Taylor, Bean & Whitaker Mortgage Corp. grew from a small Ocala-
based mortgage broker to become one of the largest mortgage
bankers in the United States.  In 2009, Taylor Bean was the
country's third largest direct-endorsement lender of FHA-insured
loans of the largest wholesale mortgage lenders and issuer of
mortgage backed securities.  It also managed a combined mortgage
servicing portfolio of approximately $80 billion.  The company
employed more that 2,000 people in offices located throughout the
United States.

Taylor Bean filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection August 24
(Bankr. M.D. Fla. Case No. 09-07047).  Taylor Bean filed for
Chapter 11 three weeks after federal investigators searched its
offices.  The day following the search, the Federal Housing
Administration, Ginnie Mae and Freddie Mac prohibited the company
from issuing new mortgages and terminated servicing rights.
Taylor Bean estimated more than $1 billion in both assets and
liabilities, according to its bankruptcy petition.

Prosser, PA, in Tampa, Florida, represents the Debtor.  Troutman
Sanders LLP is special counsel.  BMC Group, Inc., serves as claims

VALLEY BUILDING: Trustee Loses Bid to Avoid Attorney's Fees
-----------------------------------------------------------
WestLaw reports that a Chapter 7 trustee failed to establish that
a debtor acted with actual intent to defraud, hinder, or delay
creditors in making challenged payments to an attorney, as
required to establish claims for actual fraudulent transfer under
the Bankruptcy Code and the Pennsylvania Uniform Fraudulent
Transfer Act.  The trustee showed that the debtor was insolvent
when the payments were made, but did not establish any other
badges of fraud favoring a finding of actual intent.  Although the
trustee contended that the payments were for legal services that
were provided to the debtor's principals as individuals, rather
than the debtor, and the attorney addressed his invoices to one of
the debtor's principals, the attorney gave a credible explanation
for doing so, and also testified that he never did legal work for
the debtor's principals as individuals.  In re Valley Bldg. &
Const. Corp., --- B.R. ----, 2010 WL 3074387 (Bankr. E.D. Pa.)
(Fitzsimon, J.).

Valley Buiulding & Construction Corp. filed a Voluntary Chapter 7
Petition (Bankr. E.D. Pa. Case No. 06-16119) on Dec. 28, 2006,
because its business was negatively impacted by the downturn in
the housing market.  Howard Glassman, the Chapter 7 Trustee, sued
(Bankr. E.D. Pa. Adv. Pro. No. 08-0080) William O'Brian, Esq., to
avoid the debtor's payment of certain legal fees.  The Honorable
Jean K. Fitzsimon concluded that the Trustee did not carry his
burden to establish actual or constructive fraud under 11 U.S.C.
Sec. 548 or the PUFTA.


VISTEON CORP: Committee Says Retiree Order Not Applicable to UAW
----------------------------------------------------------------
As reported in the TCR on August 19, the International Union,
United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of
America filed a motion asking U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher
Sontchi to compel Visteon Corp. and its units:

  (a) to make "other post-employment benefits" payments
      retroactive to when those benefits were terminated on
      May 1, 2010; and

  (b) to continue making those payments in the future,

in accordance with the July 2010 ruling of the Third Circuit
Court of Appeals for the reinstatement of those benefits.

The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors objects, contending
that the Third Circuit's Opinion and Judgment on the reinstatement
of Visteon Corp. retiree benefits is not applicable to UAW-
represented retirees who waived their right to challenge the
Bankruptcy Court's OPB Order by failing to appeal.  The Committee
asserts that the Third Circuit Judgment only applies to IUE-CWA
and its represented retirees on whose behalf an appeal was
prosecuted.

On behalf of UAW, Bruce S. Levine, Esq., at Cohen, Weiss and Simon
LLP, in New York, responded, insisting that the Third Circuit's
decision applies to all retirees, including those represented by
UAW.  Mr. Levine contends that the Third Circuit decision is
unambiguous in that (1) the Debtors are required to take whatever
action is necessary to immediately restore all terminated or
modified benefits to their pre-termination/modification levels;
and that (2) the Bankruptcy Court is directed not to permit any
future termination or modification of the benefits except through
compliance with the procedures set forth in Section 1114.

On the Debtors' behalf, James E. O'Neill, Esq., at Pachulski
Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP, in Wilmington, Delaware, is arguing that
the UAW's waived its "due process" argument by raising it for
first time in its reply.  Mr. O'Neill further asserts that the
UAW's "due process" argument is without merit for these reasons:

  (a) The UAW has not moved to reopen the Bankruptcy Court's
      judgment and, contrary to the UAW's argument, Rule 60(b)
      of the Federal Rule of Civil Procedure does not
      automatically extinguish a judgment against a party who
      decided to forego an appeal once another party obtains a
      successful decision on appeal;

  (b) The Third Circuit did not hold or even suggest that the
      Bankruptcy Court's order authorizing the Debtors to
      terminate OPEB was void or in violation of due process;
      and

  (c) None of the cases cited in the UAW's reply hold that error
      in entering the original order renders the order void as
      against parties who did not appeal.

                         *      *     *

A hearing on the UAW's request was held on August 17, 2010.
Counsel to the UAW has been directed to submit proposed orders
under certification.

VISTEON CORP: Court Rejects Official Retiree Committee
------------------------------------------------------
As reported in the TCR on August 19, Robert Dudon, Michael Jarema
III, Miriam Rosario, William Shillingford, Julio Soto, Dean
Turner, Ronald Young and Thomas Zurek, on behalf of themselves and
all other similarly situated salaried retirees of Visteon
Corporation and its affiliated debtor entities, are asking U.S.
Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Sontchi to:

  (a) authorize and instruct the U.S. Trustee for the District
      of Delaware to immediately appoint an Official Retiree
4     Committee;

  (b) order immediate reinstatement of all retiree benefits
      terminated outside of Section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code;
      and

  (c) order the Debtors to cooperate in the determination of
      their allowed administrative expense claims.

In December 2009, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware authorized the Debtors to terminate retiree benefits
pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code.  The Bankruptcy
Court's granting of the 363 Motion and the U.S. District Court for
the District of Delaware's affirmation of that decision were
reversed by the July 13 Third Circuit ruling.  In relevant part,
the Third Circuit Judgment states that the District Court will
direct the Bankruptcy Court (i) to order the Debtors to take
whatever action is necessary to immediately restore all terminated
or modified benefits to their pre-termination or modification
levels, and (ii) to prohibit any future termination of
modification of the benefits except through compliance with the
procedures set forth under Section 1114.

Responding to the Retiree Committee Motion, the Debtors refute the
Salaried Retirees' contention that the Third Circuit's Opinion and
Judgment requires them to reinstate the Salaried Retirees'
benefits.  The Debtors clarify that the Third Circuit's Opinion
and Judgment did not address or decide the Salaried Retirees'
rights to retirement benefits.

Similar to the Debtors' stand, the Official Committee of
Unsecured Creditors asserts that the Third Circuit ruling on the
reinstatement of benefits to Visteon Corp. retirees is not
applicable to Salaried Retirees who waived their right to
challenge the Bankruptcy Court's OPEB Order by failing to appeal.

The Creditors' Committee avers that the Third Circuit ruling only
applies to the IUE-CWA and the retirees it represents on whose
behalf the appeal was prosecuted.

Moreover, the Creditors Committee maintains, the Salaried
Retirees have not shown that they are not adequately represented
in the Debtors' Chapter 11 cases.

The Creditors Committee points out that an ad hoc group of
salaried retirees has been active throughout the proceedings, and
counsel to the Salaried Retirees has demonstrated that the
Salaried Retirees have able representation of their interest in
the Debtors' cases going forward.

                   U.S. Trustee's Statement

Roberta A. DeAngelis, the U.S. Trustee for Region 3, asks Judge
Sontchi to issue an order directing the Debtors to comply with
their obligations under Section 1114.

Section 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code states that, "the court, upon
a motion by any party in interest, and after notice and a
hearing, shall order the appointment of a committee of retired
employees if the debtor seeks to modify or not pay the retiree
benefits or if the court otherwise determines that it is
appropriate, to serve as the authorized representative, under
this section, of those persons receiving any retiree benefits not
covered by a collective bargaining agreement.  The United States
trustee shall appoint any such committee."

The Debtors' stated intention is to continue to seek to modify
certain retiree benefits, the U.S. Trustee notes.

Thus, the U.S. Trustee maintains, in accordance with the July 13
Third Circuit ruling, the Debtors must comply with the Section
1114 procedures in the modification of any retiree benefits.

                        *     *     *

Judge Sontchi has rejected the request for an official retiree
committee appointment to represent the interests of salaried
retirees, according to an August 17 report by the Associated
Press.

The Court opined that such appointment can possibly delay the
plan process schedule of Visteon Corp., which includes an
Aug. 31, 2010 confirmation hearing date.  "I have grave concerns
about derailing the confirmation process in this case," AP quoted
Judge Sontchi as saying.  "I have grave concerns about keeping
this company in bankruptcy longer than absolutely necessary."

VISTEON CORP: Ordered by Bankr. Court to Restore Retiree Benefits
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Judge Christopher S. Sontchi for the District of
Delaware directed Visteon Corporation and its debtor affiliates
to restore health-care and life-insurance benefits to thousands
of the Company's retired workers.

Judge Sontchi made his remark just before the August 17, 2010
hearing on the request of union-represented Visteon retirees to
compel Visteon for a reinstatement of the retiree benefits,
according to the Associated Press.

The Unions -- the IUE-CWA, Industrial Division of the
Communications Workers of America, AFL-CIO, CLC, and the
International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and
Agricultural Implement Workers of America -- on behalf of Visteon
retirees, specifically sought the retroactive reinstatement of
the retiree benefits to when those benefits were terminated on
May 21, 2010.

At the August 17 hearing, Judge Sontchi said he wanted a
"seamless continuation" of benefits for retirees from salaried
positions, as well as retirees represented by unions, Peg
Brickley of The Wall Street Journal reports.

In December 2009, the Bankruptcy Court authorized the termination
of certain post-employment benefits provided under the Visteon
Corporation Health and Welfare Program for Salaried Employees;
the Visteon Systems, LLC Health and Welfare Benefit Plan for
Hourly Employees at Connersville and Bedford Location; the
Visteon Systems, LLC Health and Welfare Benefit Plan for Hourly
Employees at North Pennsylvania location; and the Visteon
Caribbean, Inc. Employee Group Insurance Plan.

The IUE-CWA took an appeal of the original OPEB Termination Order
to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.  The
District Court subsequently affirmed the Bankruptcy Court's
decision.  The IUE-CWA thus took a further appeal to the Third
Circuit Court of Appeals.

The Third Circuit reversed the District Court's ruling on
July 13, 2010.  The Third Circuit specifically ordered the
District Court to direct the Bankruptcy Court (i) to order the
Debtors to take whatever action is necessary to immediately
restore all terminated or modified benefits to their pre-
termination or modification levels, and (ii) to prohibit any
future termination of modification of the benefits except through
compliance with the procedures set forth under Section 1114 of
the Bankruptcy Code.

In light of the Third Circuit ruling, Visteon agreed to reinstate
benefits only to IUE-CWA-represented retirees, arguing that the
UAW forfeited its rights for entitlement to the retiree benefits
when it did not assert an appeal to the original Bankruptcy Court
Order on the Benefits Termination Motion.

Judge Sontchi rejected Visteon's position at the August 17
hearing, saying that he felt "strongly" that all Visteon retirees
should get their benefits back, in line with the Third Circuit's
decision, The Wall Street Journal relates.

About 2,000 retirees are represented by IUE-CWA while 4,500
retirees either are represented by UAW or are non-union retirees
from salaried position, The Wall Street Journal cites.

Moreover, Judge Sontchi said, "There needs to be no period by
which these people are not covered retroactively," according to
WSJ.

AP also relates the Judge Sontchi's recent decision comes in
light of a rehearing requested by Visteon of the benefits
reinstatement that was consequently denied by the Third Circuit.

As widely reported, however, the Bankruptcy Court has off giving
an opinion on "how" and "when" Visteon is to restore and
reinstatement the subject retiree benefits.

VISTEON CORP: Plan Confirmation Hearing Reset to August 31
----------------------------------------------------------
The hearing date reserved to consider confirmation of the Fourth
Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization of Visteon Corporation and
its debtor affiliates has been reset to August 31, 2010, at
9:30 a.m. prevailing Eastern Time.

The confirmation hearing is set to be held before Judge
Christopher S. Sontchi of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware.

The confirmation hearing was previously slated for August 25,
2010.

The Bankruptcy Court has reserved September 2 and 3 as additional
confirmation hearing dates, if necessary.

Visteon's voting agent has filed an affidavit in Court,
certifying that majority of the Company's voting creditors voted
to accept the Plan.

Visteon earlier reported to the Court that certain of its
unsecured noteholders have raised more tan $1 billion to fund the
rights offering contemplated under the Plan.  The Company also
noted that it has obtained support from the term loan lenders of
its Plan.  The Company is also close to finalizing an exit
facility for its anticipated emergence from bankruptcy.

Among the issues expected to be taken up at the confirmation
hearing is the matter on whether Visteon has the right to
terminate or cancel retiree benefits post-bankruptcy.  Judge
Sontchi however has stated that after bankruptcy, the Court would
have no jurisdiction over those benefits, according to Bloomberg
News.

              Creditors Overwhelmingly Support Plan

Christopher R. Schepper, director of Corporate Restructuring
Services employed by Kurtzman Carson Consultants LLC, the voting
agent, said the Plan got overwhelming support by each class of
claims and interests entitled to vote on the Plan.

Holders of Term Loan Claims voted 98% in amount to accept the
Plan.  Holders of senior notes claims voted 99% to 100% in amount
to accept the Plan.

Holders of interests in Visteon Corp. voted 75% in amount to
accept the Plan.

                  Plan Confirmation Objections

Various parties have submitted objections to confirmation of the
Plan.  Some of the objectors have dropped their objections.

Mark Taub, on behalf of himself and all other retail shareholders,
employees, who may own Visteon stock that are being
disenfranchised by Visteon's current Plan, asserted in an
August 15, 2010 letter to the Court that the Debtors' proposed
Plan is unconfirmable because it violates Section 1129(a)(7) of
the Bankruptcy Code.

Arkema Inc. asks the Court to deny assumption of any of its
agreements with the Debtors and deny confirmation of the Plan to
the extent that it would result in assumption of a purported
contract or purchase order or in the alternative, order payment
of $210,094 to cure defaults.  Arkema complains that the Plan (i)
improperly list "All Contracts" or "Purchase Orders" for
assumption without delineating the actual contracts or purchase
orders, if any, the Debtors seek to assume; (ii) improperly seeks
to assume contracts that are not executory; and (iii) provides an
improper cure amount.

Parties that withdrew their objections include Fulcrum Credit
Partners, LLC, the Missouri Department of Revenue, the Tennessee
Department of Revenue, and the state of Michigan Department of
Treasury.

* Homebuilders More Likely to Use Covenant Lite Package
-------------------------------------------------------
Moody's assessment of 440 bonds issued in the Americas and Europe
from 2008 through June 2010 shows generally higher rates of
"covenant-lite" protections for bonds rated at the higher end of
the speculative-grade rating scale and more stringent packages for
lower-rated instruments, said the ratings agency in a new report.
However, the report also notes important exceptions, such as
homebuilders, among others.

The covenant package of a conventional high-yield bond (rated Ba1
or lower at issuance) includes a restricted payments covenant and
a debt incurrence covenant ("high-yield package"), the study
stated.  "Moody's considers the package covenant-lite if it lacks
either or both covenants, which are the two most important forms
of investor protection," said Alexander Dill, Moody's Vice
President-Senior Covenant Officer.

The debt incurrence covenant limits a company's ability to
increase leverage and the restricted payments covenant limits cash
leakage from the covenant-restricted entities in the corporate
family and investments in riskier assets, the report said.  "These
shareholder-friendly actions can erode the ability of issuers
lower down in the rating spectrum to service their debt," noted
Matthew Musicaro, an Associate Analyst at Moody's and the report's
primary author.

Based on the sample assessment of 440 high yield bonds, Moody's
observed that homebuilders, despite being one of the worst-
performing sectors during the financial crisis, were far more
likely to use a covenant lite ("investment grade") package than
the rest of the market.  Those companies that used light covenants
generally had the cash and cash flow allowing them to negotiate
relaxed loan covenants and thus had little incentive to agree to
high-yield covenants to bondholders.  Other than a few auto
suppliers, no other sector followed the cov-lite trend, said
Musicaro.

In addition, throughout the 2008-2010 period, 21% of Ba1 bonds,
56% of Ba2 bonds and 76% of Ba3 bonds used a high-yield package ,
while fallen angels consistently used an investment-grade
package."Of the 28 fallen angels' bonds rated Ba1 or Ba2 at
issuance in Moody's sample for the 2008 -- 2010 period, 25 used an
investment-grade package," noted Musicaro.  "Only 23 of the 50
bonds issued by conventional high-yield issuers rated Ba1 and Ba2
used an investment-grade package."

Moody's found that that European high-yield issuers were more
likely to have a debt incurrence covenant than issuers in the
Americas.  "Between January 1, 2008 and June 30, 2010, no European
issuer in Moody's population came to market with a bond rated Ba1
or lower without a debt incurrence covenant," said Musicaro.  "In
contrast, 5% of all bonds rated B1 or below in the Americas
population did not have a debt incurrence covenant."

"We found a divide at the Ba3-B1 ratings threshold," Musicaro
said.  "Bonds that were rated B1 or below did not use an
investment-grade package in 2008.  However, some bonds rated B1 or
below did so in 2009 and 2010."


* Corporate Debt "Wall of Maturity" Crumbling, Report Says
----------------------------------------------------------
Morgan Joseph LLC's second quarter financial restructuring outlook
said that U.S. financial markets are on their way to knocking down
a wall of debt maturity that has endangered the U.S. economic
recovery and threatened to push more companies into bankruptcy,
according to American Bankruptcy Institute.


* Study Shows Massive Increase in Consumer Bankruptcy Costs
-----------------------------------------------------------
People currently filing for Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 consumer
bankruptcy protection are facing as much as a 55 percent cost
increase as one result of the 2005 comprehensive bankruptcy
reforms, according to a new study published in the American
Bankruptcy Institute Law Review.  In addition, as a direct result
of these increased costs, unsecured creditors are being paid a
smaller percentage on the dollar today than prior to the 2005
reform.

The study, authored by New York bankruptcy attorney Lois R. Lupica
of Thompson & Knight LLP and funded by the American Bankruptcy
Institute and the National Conference of Bankruptcy Judges,
reveals that consumer bankruptcy is a "far more complicated
process than it was before the 2005 amendments" based on an
increased number of conditions and calculations for filers in
addition to a corresponding rise in expenses.

"The government's stated goal in passing bankruptcy reform was to
eliminate abuse of the system and create a set of higher
eligibility standards for consumers, but this is the first time
that the financial impact of those standards has been quantified,"
says Ms. Lupica, who also serves as a Maine Law Foundation
Professor of Law at the University of Maine School of Law in
Portland.

The study examined data collected from consumer bankruptcy cases
in judicial districts located in Florida, Illinois, Georgia,
Maine, Utah, and West Virginia.  The costs to consumers was
defined as debtor's attorney fees and expenses, trustee fees and
expenses, filing fees, credit counseling and debtor education
fees, and any other professional fees.

For the sample of Chapter 13 cases, the study found that the
median cost for consumers was $2,930 in 2003 and 2004, with an
increase to $4,077 in 2007 and 2008.  For Chapter 7 cases in the
same periods, the costs increased from $900 to $1,399.

"Attorney fees are just part of the required administrative
expenses that may have contributed to the overall decline of
consumer bankruptcies, even in the face of the public's increased
debt load, foreclosures, and loan defaults," Lupica says.

While the overall number of consumer bankruptcy filings has
declined since passage of the 2005 reforms, the most recently
available data reported by the ABI shows that the 149,268 consumer
bankruptcies filed in March 2010 represented the highest monthly
total of consumer filings since the reforms were enacted.  The
March filing total represented a 34 percent increase from the
February filing total of 111,693 and a 23 percent increase from
the March 2009 total of 121,413.

"Greater up-front costs may have hindered some consumers from
filing bankruptcy, but there may be other factors at play," Lupica
says.  "There was a large volume of negative publicity in the
aftermath of the 2005 amendments, as well as heightened efforts by
aggressive debt collection and consolidation firms."

The publication of the study marks completion of the first phase
of a two-part national survey to analyze how the consumer
bankruptcy system has changed in the past five years.  The full
study is scheduled to be published in late 2011.

* BOOK REVIEW: BIG BUSINESS TOO BIG?
------------------------------------
Beard Books, Washington, D.C. 2000
(reprint of 1940 book published by Morris L. Ernst)
314 pages. $34.95 trade paper, ISBN 1-58798-060-6. appendices,
charts, tables, index.

The author Ernst had an acquaintance with the noted Supreme Court
Judge Louis D. Brandeis to have many talks with him on political
topics when both were lawyers in the Northeast.  Ernst's own views
on the bigness of organizations were shaped by Brandies.  Bigness
-- i. e., cautions against it because of dangers inherent in it--
was a central political and juridical concern of Brandeis.  In an
article titled "The Curse of Bigness" from the early 1900s not
long before he was named to the Supreme Court by President Woodrow
Wilson, Brandeis wrote the cautionary words, "[B]oth the financial
concentration and the combinations which they have served were, in
the main, against the public interest . . . Size . . . is not a
crime..but may become noxious by reason of the means through which
it was attained and the uses to which it was put."  Brandeis ends
the passage with a contrast between natural growth leading to
bigger size and "combination" (mergers, etc.) to increase size
with the aim of concentrating power and monopolizing a field.

Ernst took his topic from Brandeis.  And his perspective is
roughly the same.  While having the breadth and consistency
practically of a worldview, the outlook nonetheless has subtlety
and realism in recognizing that not all large-sized, dominating
organizations are against the public interest.  There are
practical and economic reasons for large-sized organizations.
Utilities and transportation systems must of necessity be large,
extensive, and permanent to provide their services for the public
efficiently, economically (which means lower costs for users), and
dependably.  The Federal government too and governments of more
populous states are necessarily large.  As a counterbalance to
this however, Ernst, like Brandeis, supports strong, vibrant, and
meaningful civil rights.  In most cases, bigness is undesirable
and in some cases (e. g., the Communist government of Russia)
positively threatening not only because of its effects on an
economic system, but also direct effects on the lives of
individuals.

Ernst introduces his topic in theoretical terms.  He will seek
answers to questions such as "How soon do responsible division
chiefs start to avoid responsibility and by delay or other devices
start to 'pass the buck'?"; "Can a farm be run from a control
office giving instructions to be carried out hundreds of miles
away at a different climate and at a different plane above sea
level?"; "Do telephone wires from the vice presidents in New York
replace the contribution of personal contact?"  These same
questions are again being raised today.

While beginning on a theoretical note, Ernst quickly moves to his
own experiences and examples from the daily media which would have
been familiar to readers of the day (1940 when the book was
originally published).  Parts of chapters are like anecdotes.
Most of the content is from Ernst's wide-ranging work as a lawyer,
involvement with other professionals, and contacts with all kinds
of persons, businesses, and government agencies.

The book is not a dry political, economic study.  Chapter titles
reflect the relatively informal, yet wide-ranging, germane, and
engaging content. Lords and Laborers is the chapter title for the
steel industry; Nickels and Dimes, for banking; Supercolossal, for
the movie industry; The Staff of Life, the retail sector, and so
on.

Ernst's topics on the negative side of oversized, dominating
organizations and his balanced perspective too are timeless.
Although the landscape of American business has changed from when
the book first appeared, it is relevant in this day when the
phrase "too big too fail" has become a central economic and social
issue.

Morris Leopold Ernst (1888-1976) was a principle at the top New
York City law firm Greenbaum, Wolff, and Ernst.  During his career
in law, he also held several posts in government.
