315 UNION: Has Access to Prepetition Lenders' Cash Collateral
-------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Tennessee
authorized Robert H. Waldschmidt, Chapter 11 trustee in the case
of 315 Union Street Holdings, LLC, to use the cash collateral.

The Court set a June 21, 2011, hearing to consider the Debtor's
continued use of the cash collateral.

HMAC 99-PH1 Union Street Office, LLC, assignee of the Bank of
America, N.A., a national banking association and successor by
merger to LaSalle Bank National Association, a national banking
association, as Trustee for the Registered Holders of Heller
Financial Commercial Mortgage Asset Corp., Commercial Mortgage
Pass-Through Certificates Services 1999 PH-1, and Branch Banking
and Trust Company each hold an absolute assignment of rents
related to the Debtor's real property and therefore claim an
ownership interest in the Debtor's rents and revenues.

Alternatively, HMAC and BB&T each claim a continuing security
interest in certain cash and cash equivalents of Debtor's interest
in its real and personal property.

The Debtor will use the cash collateral to maintain its existing
operations and to preserve the value of the property of the
Debtor's bankruptcy estate.

Pursuant to the agreed order, the trustee may not use cash for any
payment to any insider without the express written consent of
BB&T.

The carve out may be used by the trustee to investigate the
security interest and documents of any secured creditor, but may
not be used to commence or prosecute any adversary proceedings,
claims, or causes of action against BB&T or to object or oppose
any claims asserted by BB&T.

ACORN ELSTON: Road Bay Wants to Foreclose on Collateral
-------------------------------------------------------
Road Bay Investments, LLC, successor-in-interest to Allstate Life
Insurance Company, the secured mortgage lender to Acorn-Elston
LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of
New York to lift the automatic stay to permit it to hold a
foreclosure sale with respect to the Elston Plaza Shopping Center
in Chicago, Illinois.

In April 2007, Allstate made a loan to Acorn Elston in the
principal amount of $15,000,000, evidenced by a Mortgage Note, and
secured by, among other things, a Mortgage, Assignment of Leases,
Rents and Contracts, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing.

By letter dated March 31, 2009, Allstate notified Acorn Elston
that it had defaulted on the Note and the Mortgage by, among other
things, failing to pay real estate taxes for over 12 months and
failing to pay multiple contractors.  In May 2009, Allstate
initiated foreclosure proceedings against Acorn Elston in the
Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois.  On May 15, 2009, the
State Court granted Allstate's Motion for Appointment of a
Receiver for the Property, and C. Michelle Panovitch of Mid-
America Asset Management, Inc. was appointed receiver.

In September 2009, Allstate sold and assigned the Note and
Mortgage, and all of its rights thereunder, to Road Bay.

In March 2010, the State Court granted the Lender's motion for
partial summary judgment against Acorn Elston and John Coleman,
the Debtor's managing member.  The State Court found that Acorn
Elston had defaulted under the Note and Mortgage and that, as of
June 15, 2009, Acorn Elston owed the Lender (i) $15,929,856, plus
per diem interest, for principal and interest due under the Note
including $685,788, plus per diem interest, for failure to pay
real estate taxes and penalties imposed on Acorn Elston with
respect thereto.  The State Court's order provides, among other
things, that Lender is entitled to seek entry of a foreclosure and
sale order with respect to the Property and terminated all of Mr.
Coleman's interest in the Property.

On May 1, 2010, the Note and Mortgage matured by their terms.  In
September 2010, the Lender filed notice of a motion for entry of a
foreclosure and sale order, and, the next day, the Debtor
commenced its chapter 11 case.  As of the Petition Date, the
Debtor was indebted to Lender in an aggregate amount equal to not
less than $17,964,543, comprised of $16,802,033 for unpaid
principal and interest under the Note; (ii) $783,648 on account of
Debtor's unpaid taxes and penalties in connection with the
Property; (iii) $156,464 on account of mechanics liens settled by
Lender; and (iv) $222,398 for unreimbursed fees and expenses
incurred by Lender in connection with exercising its rights and
remedies under the Note and Mortgage.

In addition, the Lender deferred payment in excess of $750,000
during 2009 to 2010 to allow the Receiver to complete in-process
renovations of the Property.  Had these renovations not been done,
the Debtor would have been in violation of a city permit and would
have defaulted on critical tenant lease obligations, Ronald J.
Silverman, Esq., at Bingham McCutchen LLP, in New York --
ronald.silverman@bingham.com -- argues.

As of March 31, 2011, the Lender calculates that its claim has
grown to in excess of $18.9 million.

The Lender alleges that the Debtor commenced this Chapter 11 case
solely to delay and frustrate the Lender's right to hold a
foreclosure sale in respect of its collateral.  Indeed, the Lender
was on the verge of obtaining a foreclosure and sale order when
the Debtor filed this bankruptcy case, Mr. Silver contends.

The Lender says it is entitled to relief from the automatic stay
pursuant to Section 362(d)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code because the
Debtor cannot propose a confirmable plan of reorganization, has no
prospects of reorganizing and is improperly, and in bad faith,
abusing the Bankruptcy Code in order to gamble with the lender's
collateral.

Judge Hon. Sean H. Lane of the Bankruptcy Court will consider the
Lender's request on June 17, 2011 at 11:00 a.m.

                  About Acorn Elston, LLC

New York City-based Acorn Elston, LLC, filed for Chapter 11
protection (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-14807) on Sept. 11, 2010.
Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP was tapped to represent the
Debtor in the Chapter 11 case effective April 19, 2011, after
Kasowitz Benson Torres & Friedman withdrew as counsel.   The
Debtor also tapped The Reznick Group as its accountant, and D.E.
Shaw Real Estate Adviser LLC as its financial advisor.  The Debtor
disclosed $21,929,346 in assets and $16,488,389 in liabilities as
of the Chapter 11 filing.

The Court appointed C. Michelle Panovich as receiver with respect
to the Elston Plaza Shopping Center, and its rents, income and
proceeds.


ALLEN CAPITAL: Plan Confirmation Hearing to Commence on June 21
---------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Harlin D. Hale of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of Texas will consider confirmation of the Amended Fifth
Joint Plan of Reorganization filed by Allen Capital Partners LLC
and subsidiary DLH Master Land Holding LLC on June 21, 2011 at
9:00 a.m.

Judge Hale found that the disclosure statement, as amended,
explaining the Amended Fifth Joint Plan contains adequate
information as contemplated by Section 1125 of the Bankruptcy
Code, so that a hypothetical reasonable investor typical of
holders of claims and interests of all relevant classes, is able
to make an informed judgment about the Debtors' Plan.

The bankruptcy judge fixed June 15, 2011 at 5:00 p.m. as the
deadline by which the holders of Claims against and Interests in
the Debtors may vote to accept or reject the Plan.

Parties may file objections to confirmation of the Plan, which
objection will be in writing so as it is received by counsel for
the Debtors and counsel for the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors on or before June 17, 2011 at 5:00 p.m.

The Debtors filed with the Court on May 18, 2011, an amended
disclosure statement for the Plan to incorporate the confirmation
process deadlines.

The Debtors' proposed Reorganization Plan contemplates that the
Debtors will obtain sufficient exit financing from sales and loans
from insiders to enable them to pay all Administrative and non-tax
Priority Claims in full on the effective date.  The Debtors
believe that those funds will be available.  ACP and DLH have
actively negotiated potential joint ventures governing vertical
development and land sales at The Allen Group-Kansas City, LLC or
LPKC and DLH, Mark MacDonald, Esq., at MacDonald + MacDonald,
P.C., in Dallas Texas, relates.

On May 3, 2011, LPKC executed a Joint Venture Option Agreement
with ST Investors - LPKC, Inc which will provide build to suit
financing and will provide a funding source, if required to meet a
minimum take down of land under LPKC's modified option with BNSF.
The Fifth Amendment to BNSF Option was executed on May 4, 2011.
DLH has a letter of intent for its joint venture and is completing
final documentation.

Since the original Plan, Debtors have met with representatives of
the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors.  The Debtors made a
number of changes in the Plan to encourage the Committee to
support the Plan.  The Committee now supports the Plan.  The
Plan incorporates several material changes made at the specific
request of the Committee, including:

   (A) The Plan now clarifies that Debtors are offering each
       Unsecured Creditor the ability to elect that any part of
       its claim can be reduced by 50% and paid on an accelerated
       basis compared to other unsecured claims.  With the
       exception of Ed Romanov, a disputed ACP creditor who
       reached a partial settlement, and with the exception of the
       holders of Unsecured Claims who are insiders of the Debtor,
       every Unsecured Creditor can accept the blended claim
       recovery which they deem best for them.  All allowed
       Unsecured Creditors electing 100% payment now receive
       interest of at least 2% per annum on that portion of its
       claim.

   (B) The Plan now provides for a minimum distribution each year
       after the first year from the Effective Date to Unsecured
       Creditor Class 4.  If the minimum is not met, Allowed
       Unsecured Claims are entitled to receive added interest.

   (C) All cash balances of the Reorganized Debtors in excess of
       the cash required for working capital needs is required to
       be distributed to Creditors.

   (D) Reorganized DLH would be required to distribute at the end
       of each calendar quarter all cash exceeding $2.75 Million.
       Reorganized ACP would be required to distribute all cash
       exceeding $1.5 Million at the end of each calendar quarter
       in the first two years after the Effective Date.  The cash

ALPHA NATURAL: S&P Affirms 'BB' Corporate Credit Rating
-------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services affirmed its ratings, including
its 'BB' corporate credit rating, on Alpha Natural Resources Inc.
The rating outlook is negative.

Standard & Poor's is removing all ratings from CreditWatch, where
it placed them with negative implications on Jan. 31, 2011.

Concurrently, Standard & Poor's raised the corporate credit rating
on Massey Energy Co. to 'BB' (the same as Alpha) from 'BB-' and
removed it from CreditWatch developing, where it was placed on
Oct. 19, 2010. The rating will subsequently be withdrawn.

The rating actions follow Alpha's announcement that it has
completed the Massey acquisition as expected.

Standard & Poor's also lowered the issue-level rating on Alpha's
existing convertible notes due 2015 to 'B+' from 'BB' and revised
the CreditWatch implications on Massey Energy's issue-level
ratings to positive from developing.

"The affirmation reflects our view that currently strong
metallurgical coal prices will likely support the maintenance of
credit metrics that we believe are in line for the 'BB' rating in
the near term," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Maurice
Austin. However, significant debt levels, the risks associated
with the integration of an acquisition of this size, and high
ongoing capital spending requirements remain key credit factors.

Although the acquisition of Massey provides some operational
diversity and increased met coal exposure, a material portion of
the company's earnings and cash flow will stem from operations in
Central Appalachia (CAPP), which is facing significant regulatory
and environmental scrutiny, depleting coal seams, and rising
costs.

"We believe the cost and operational pressures at Massey's
operations, from the ongoing focus on safety from regulators since
the Upper Big Branch mine tragedy, create additional integration
challenges," Mr. Austin added.

Alpha is the third-largest U.S. coal producer, as measured by its
approximately 120 million tons in annual coal production, and is
the largest producer of metallurgical coal in the U.S. Following
the acquisition of Massey, it will operate more than 155 mines
distributed among the three major coal regions of CAPP, Northern
Appalachia (NAPP), and the Powder River Basin (PRB).


AMCARE HEALTH: Oklahoma State Processes $51 Million Settlement
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Associated Press reports that the Oklahoma Insurance
Department is processing claims from a $51 million settlement of a
lawsuit against AmCare Health.

The AP relates that the Oklahoman said money from the settlement
will be sent to doctors and other providers that the health
maintenance organization AmCare did business with.

The Insurance Department said it hasn't received all the money yet
but is already working to distribute it, the AP says.

The agency said payments will range from $15 to more than
$300,000.

AmCare Health operated in Oklahoma, Texas and Louisiana, and went
into receivership in 2003.


AMTRUST FINANCIAL: Creditors Object to AmFin Disclosure Statement
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Lance Duroni at Bankruptcy Law360 reports that AmFin Financial
Corp. met stiff resistance Friday in Ohio bankruptcy court to the
disclosure statement explaining its reorganization plan, with
unsecured creditors and junior bondholders pointing to gaps in the
document that they claim could lead voting creditors astray.

Law360 says the official committee of unsecured creditors objected
to the disclosure statement on the basis that it fails to provide
adequate information regarding various settlements with creditor
groups incorporated in the plan.

                        The Chapter 11 Plan

As reported in the May 31, 2011 edition of the Troubled Company
Reporter, although there is no conclusion yet to litigation
with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. that will determine
whether creditors receive anything at all, there will be a hearing
on June 10 for approval of the explanatory disclosure statement
explaining the proposed Chapter 11 plan for AmTrust Financial
Corp.  The disclosure statement and plan was amended mid April.

Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News, notes
that for now, AmTrust has the upper hand with the FDIC.  Last
year, U.S. District Judge Donald C. Nugent in Cleveland ruled that
documents were ambiguous as to whether the holding company was
under a commitment to provide capital to the bank subsidiary.  The
FDIC claimed the unfulfilled commitment was $550 million.

Mr. Rochelle recounts that at trial in April, a jury concluded
there was no commitment and thus no right for the FDIC to collect
$550 million from the AmTrust holding company, even though the
bank failed four days after AmTrust filed under Chapter 11 in
November 2009.  After the district judge enters judgment for
AmTrust, the holding company assumes the FDIC will appeal. The
pendency of the appeal will prevent a distribution to creditors
even if the plan is confirmed in the meantime.

Mr. Rochelle adds that there is a second dispute with the FDIC
over the entitlement to a $194 million tax refund for 2009 that
the Internal Revenue Service is yet to pay.  The FDIC claimed the
right to collect all but $9 million of the refund.  Since the tax
refund is the largest asset, the outcome of the dispute will
determine whether there is much to distribute to unsecured
creditors, even if AmTrust beats back the FDIC on its claim for
the $550 million.

                       About AmTrust Financial

AmTrust Financial Corp (PINK: AFNL) was the owner of the AmTrust
Bank.  AmTrust was the seventh-largest holder of deposits in South
Florida, with $4.7 billion in deposits and 21 branches.

In November 2008, the Office of Thrift Supervision issued a cease
and desist order requiring AmTrust to improve its capital ratios.

AmTrust Financial, together with affiliates that include AmTrust
Management Inc., filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection
(Bankr. N.D. Ohio Case No. 09-21323) on Nov. 30, 2009.  The debtor
subsidiaries include AmFin Real Estate Investments, Inc., formerly
AmTrust Real Estate Investments, Inc. (Case No. 09-21328).

G. Christopher Meyer, Esq., Christine M. Piepont, Esq., and Sherri
L. Dahl, Esq., at Squire Sanders & Dempsey (US) LLP, in Cleveland,

(US) LLP, in Cincinnati, Ohio, serve as counsel to the Debtors.
Kurtzman Carson Consultants serves as claims and notice agent.
Attorneys at Hahn Loeser & Parks LLP serve as counsel to the
Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors.  AmTrust Management
estimated $100 million to $500 million in assets and liabilities
in its Chapter 11 petition.

AmTrust Bank was not part of the Chapter 11 filings.  On Dec. 4,
2009, AmTrust Bank was closed by regulators and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation was named receiver.  New York
Community Bank, in Westbury, New York, assumed all of the deposits
of AmTrust Bank pursuant to a deal with the FDIC.


ANIXTER INT'L: $275-Mil. Facility Won't Affect Moody's Ratings
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's commented that the new $275 million accounts receivable
securitization facility expiring May 2013 has no immediate impact
on Anixter International Inc.'s Ba2 Corporate Family Rating or
stable outlook. For more information please see the Issuer Comment
posted on moody's.com.

The principal methodologies used in this rating were Global
Manufacturing Industry published in December 2010, and Loss Given
Default for Speculative-Grade Non-Financial Companies in the U.S.,
Canada and EMEA published in June 2009.

Anixter International Inc. is a holding company and the direct
parent company of Anixter Inc., the company's primary operating
company. Anixter is a leading global distributor of communications
products, electrical and electronic wire and cable, fasteners and
other small parts to Original Equipment Manufacturers. Revenues
for the twelve months through April 1, 2011 totaled about $5.7
billion.


ARINC INC: Moody's Raises CFR to B2; Outlook Positive
-----------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service raised its Corporate Family and
Probability of Default ratings of Arinc Incorporated ("ARINC"),
each to B2 from B3. Moody's also affirmed the B1 rating assigned
to the company's first lien senior secured credit facilities and
upgraded the rating on the company's second lien senior secured
credit facility to Caa1 from Caa2. The outlook is positive.

Upgrades:

   Issuer: Arinc Incorporated

   -- Probability of Default Rating, Upgraded to B2 from B3

   -- Corporate Family Rating, Upgraded to B2 from B3

   -- Senior Secured Bank Credit Facility, Upgraded to Caa1 LGD5 -
      80% from Caa2 LGD5 - 81%

Outlook Actions:

   Issuer: Arinc Incorporated

   -- Outlook, Changed To Positive From Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

The upgrade of the Corporate Family and Probability of default
ratings reflect the sustained multi-year improvement in the
company's EBITDA margin, particularly in its commercial
operations, and credit metrics. The combination of the improved
operating cash flow and modest capital expenditures of
approximately 2.5% of revenues provide a recurring base of free
cash flow, which Moody's anticipates ARINC to maintain going
forward. The free cash flow profile and unrestricted cash on hand
of at least $40 million anchor ARINC's good liquidity, which
supports the upgrade of the ratings. The affirmation of the first
lien rating results from a smaller first loss position of junior
debt capital in Moody's Loss Given Default waterfall. ARINC made a
voluntary repayment of $50 million on the second lien loan
facility towards the end of 2010.

The positive outlook anticipates that ARINC is likely to sustain
its business profile and current supportive credit metrics profile
over the intermediate term. Moreover, the company's strategy of
deleveraging during the past three years and adequate liquidity
position afford it a comfortable degree of financial flexibility
at the current rating level.

The B2 Corporate Family rating reflects the benefits of the
company's diversified service offerings to commercial and
government customers, including its leading position in the market
for air-to-ground aviation communications. Current pressure on the
U.S. Department of Defense budget should also lead to steady
demand for the company's Aerospace and Defense segment. The
service lives of existing DoD equipment will likely lengthen,
providing a steady flow of projects to the market in which ARINC
will share. The B2 rating balances the improved operating
performance and lower leverage the company has achieved from a
sharp focus on cost management and stringent profitability
criteria for new project bids against the potential for the
deployment of future free cash flow to growth investments or
returns to shareholders, which could lead to a weakening of credit
metrics. Good liquidity also mitigates potential downwards
pressure from the commercial customer base that is prone to
cyclical economic conditions and potential swings in working
capital needs.

The ratings could be upgraded if ARINC sustains FFO + Interest to
Interest above 2.8 times or Debt to EBITDA below 4.5 times. The
outlook could be changed to stable if EBITDA margin was to decline
to the 13% range or if free cash flow generation moved towards
breakeven. A downgrade of the ratings could follow if the company
was to pursue an acquisitive growth strategy or make steady
returns to the equity sponsor that result in a sustained
significant increase in Debt to EBITDA. A decline in the level or
profitability of operations such that free cash flow turned
negative, Debt to EBITDA was sustained above 5.5 times or FFO +
interest to interest was sustained below 2.0 times could also lead
to a downgrade of the ratings.

The principal methodology used in rating ARINC was the Global
Aerospace and Defense Industry Methodology, published June 2010.
Other methodologies used include Loss Given Default for
Speculative Grade Issuers in the US, Canada, and EMEA, published
June 2009.

ARINC Incorporated, headquartered in Annapolis, MD, is a provider
of communications information technology products and services and
engineering services to the commercial aviation industry as well
as government agencies.


BANKUNITED FIN'L: Settles With FDIC to Permit Liquidating Plan
--------------------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and the official
creditors' committee for BankUnited Financial Corp. settled enough
of the their disputes so the liquidating Chapter 11 plan proposed
by the committee can go forward.

Mr. Rochelle recounts that the principal issue blocking the
committee plan was the $1.47 billion claim by the FDIC for the
bank's capital deficiency.  The FDIC contended the claim was
entitled to priority, meaning in essence that no one else would
receive any distribution if the claim were valid.  There was also
a dispute over ownership of tax refunds as between BankUnited and
the FDIC.

According to the report, the settlement, worked with Francis
Carter as mediator, calls for the FDIC and BankUnited to cooperate
in pursuit of a $48 million tax refund.  Whatever the government
pays will be held in an escrow account until there's resolution to
the conflicting claims to the refund.  If BankUnited wins the
lawsuit for tax refunds, the FDIC will receive $7.5 million and
have a $45 million claim in the BankUnited bankruptcy.  If the
FDIC wins the right to the tax refunds, BankUnited will receive
$2 million.  The FDIC will withdraw its claims for the $1.47
billion priority claim, and BankUnited will withdraw its $414
million claim in the bank's FDIC receivership.  The settlement
also doesn't decide whether the FDIC or BankUnited has the right
to pursue lawsuits against the former officers and directors.

Mr. Rochelle notes that the committee's disclosure statement said
there was about $10 million cash on hand.  Assets could top out at
about $64 million, with $50 million representing tax refunds.  On
the low end, assets wouldn't exceed $11.5 million, the disclosure
statement said.  The draft disclosure statement predicted that
holders of $321 million in senior notes would recover nothing to
18.4 percent.  General unsecured creditors with claims totaling up
to $50 million might realize nothing, with their best recovery
being 10.5 percent.  Holders of preferred stock and $245 million
in subordinated notes won't see anything.  The disclosure
statement may be revised to reflect the settlement.

The committee, Mr. Rochelle adds, was hoping to work out an
arrangement with an investor to fund the company so operations
could benefit from net operating loss carryforwards that
BankUnited said could be as much as $3.6 billion.  There is a
pending lawsuit to decide whether BankUnited or the FDIC owns the
NOLs.

BERNARD L. MADOFF: Lawmakers Want SIPC & Picard Probed
------------------------------------------------------
Jessica Holzer, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reports that
Rep. Scott Garrett (R., N.J.), who heads the House Financial
Services Subcommittee on Capital Markets, and three of his U.S.
House colleagues asked U.S. Comptroller General Gene L. Dodaro in
a letter on Friday to investigate the industry association
overseeing the settlement of Bernard Madoff victims' claims.  The
lawmakers are critical of the way money is being recovered from
Mr. Madoff's Ponzi scheme.  The lawmakers also want the watchdog
to review how the Securities and Exchange Commission has
supervised the Securities Investor Protection Corp. in its
handling of the claims.

According to the report, the lawmakers said the method being used
by the SIPC trustee in charge of the Madoff liquidation "causes
outcomes that are in direct conflict with the goals of protecting
investors, maintaining fair, orderly and efficient markets and
facilitating capital formation."  They asked Mr. Dodaro, who heads
the Government Accountability Office, to investigate the
involvement of SIPC trustee Irving Picard and his law firm, Baker
& Hostetler LLP, in the decision to use a method to calculate
claims that has resulted in lawsuits to recover funds from
investors who withdrew fictitious profits from the scheme.

According to the Journal, the other lawmakers who signed the
letter are Reps. Peter King (R., N.Y.), Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R.,
Fla.) and Carolyn McCarthy (D., N.Y.).

According to the Journal, SIPC Chief Stephen P. Harbeck, who said
he hadn't seen the lawmakers' letter, defended the method to
recoup funds for Mr. Madoff's victims.  "All previous cases that
deal with Ponzi schemes have said that fictional profits are not
part of what SIPC can return to customers," he said.

The Journal says a spokeswoman for Mr. Picard and his lawyer David
Sheehan declined to comment. SEC spokesman John Nester declined to
comment.

                   About Bernard L. Madoff

Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC and Bernard L. Madoff
orchestrated the largest Ponzi scheme in history, with losses
topping $50 billion.  On Dec. 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.).  Mr. Picard has retained AlixPartners LLP as claims
agent.

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
US$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 Feb. 18, 2011, a total of $6.85 billion in claims by
investors has been allowed, with $791.1 million to be paid by the
Securities Investor Protection Corp.  Investors are expected to
receive additional distributions from money recovered by
Mr. Picard from lawsuits or settlements.


BLACK CROW: Wants Settlement with GE OK'd, DIP Loan Extended
------------------------------------------------------------
Black Crow Media Group, LLC, et al., ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Middle District of Florida to extend the term of the
senior secured debtor-in-possession credit agreement between the
Debtors and Paul C. Stone until June 16, 2012, or the effective
date of a Plan of Reorganization, whichever occurs earlier.

The Debtors relate that on June 16, 2010, they were authorized to
borrow up to $1.5 million from the DIP lender.  A total of $1.2
million has been advanced by the DIP lender.  Pursuant to the
agreement, the loan must be repaid by June 16, 2011.  The Debtors
require additional time to repay the DIP loan, and the DIP lender
agreed to extend the loan pursuant to the same terms and
conditions for an additional year.  The Debtors anticipate that
they will confirm a plan of reorganization prior to the expiration
of the extended loan term.

The Debtors add that they had reached a settlement with the DIP
lender and General Electric Capital Corporation, which, pending
the approval by the Court, will resolve most of the outstanding
contested matters in the cases.  The Debtors and the DIP lender
agreed to extend the term of the DIP loan to obtain approval of
the settlement and a Chapter 11 Plan.

The Debtors will use the money to fund their postpetition
obligations, and the DIP lenders have consented to the use.  The
Debtors were unable to obtain a replacement loan on better terms
than the DIP loan.

The Debtors relate that the DIP lender is fully secured by virtue
of postpetition accounts receivable.

The Debtors set a July 6, hearing on their requested DIP loan
extension.

BLOCKBUSTER CANADA: Claims Right to Use Trademarks
--------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that Blockbuster Canada Co. filed papers in bankruptcy
court in New York opposing an effort by its parent Blockbuster
Inc. to terminate the right to use the Blockbuster trademark in
Canada.

Blockbuster Canada, the report discloses, contends that the
attempt by the U.S. parent to terminate the trademark license is
barred by the Canadian equivalent of the automatic stay
prohibiting creditors from affecting property of a company in
bankruptcy.  The Canadian company also argues that the trademark
license is not an "executory contract" and can't therefore be
terminated.

Blockbuster Canada, according to Mr. Rochelle's report, believes
it has the right to use the trademark until the agreement ends by
its terms.  The Canadian company also argues that the attempt to
end use of the trademark is a ploy by Dish Network Corp., the
purchaser of Blockbuster assets in the U.S., to leverage a cheaper
acquisition the Canadian business.

According to the Bloomberg report, Dish filed papers June 6 in the
Blockbuster Canada Chapter 15 case telling the bankruptcy judge he
shouldn't allow the Chapter 15 case to interfere with its right to
the trademarks.

The dispute will be resolved in the U.S. by Bankruptcy Judge
Burton R. Lifland, who was one of the drafters of the Chapter 15
law.  Judge Lifland will hold a hearing on June 23 over the
trademark dispute, Mr. Rochelle relates.

BORDERS GROUP: Also in Sale Talks With Najafi Cos.
--------------------------------------------------
Jeffrey A. Trachtenberg and Mike Spector, writing for The Wall
Street, report that people familiar with the matter said private-
equity firm Najafi Cos. is among those in discussions to buy
Borders Group Inc. out of bankruptcy.

The sources told the Journal that Najafi, a boutique firm that
usually makes investments of $1 billion or less, is competing with
Los Angeles-based Gores Group to buy more than 200 of Borders'
remaining stores and keep the bookstore chain operating as a going
concern.  One of the sources said Phoenix-based Najafi and Borders
are focusing attention on Borders' remaining 265 superstores, Web
site operations and customer lists.

According to the Journal's sources, Gores would shift Borders more
toward an online business model, should it acquire the chain, and
would use Borders' remaining stores to promote a shift toward an
online retail business.

One of the sources told the Journal both Najafi and Gores are
negotiating terms with Borders ahead of a potential bankruptcy-
court auction later in the summer.  Najafi is moving quickly to
complete due diligence on Borders and cement an offer for the
company, this person said. Details of Najafi's strategy for the
company remain unclear, this person said.

In 2008, Najafi acquired Direct Brands Inc., a direct-marketing
company home to brands such as the Book of the Month Club,
DoubleDay Book Club and Columbia House DVD.

The Journal said a Borders spokeswoman declined to comment. A
Najafi representative didn't immediately respond to a request for
comment.

BORDERS GROUP: Wins OK of BofA Pact on Compensation Plan
--------------------------------------------------------
Borders Group and its affiliates received approval from the
Bankruptcy Court of a stipulation they negotiated with Bank of
America, N.A., authorizing and directing performance under a trust
agreement for the Debtors' Deferred Compensation Plan.

In August 2001, Borders Group, Inc. and BofA, successor to
Merrill Lynch Trust Company, FSB, as trustee, entered into a
Borders Group, Inc. Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan
Trust Agreement, creating a "rabbi" trust to hold assets
contributed by the Debtors to be used to fund the Debtors'
payment obligations under the Borders Group, Inc. Non-Qualified
Deferred Compensation Plan.  The Trust Agreement governs the
Debtors' and BofA's rights and obligations with respect to
payments from the Trust, which are used to satisfy payment
obligations under the Deferred Compensation Plan.

The Deferred Compensation Plan is a typical non-qualified
deferred compensation plan that permits Plan Participants to
elect to defer payment of a portion of their current wages on a
tax-deferred basis to be distributed in the future as designated
under the plan document.  At the time of deferral, the Debtors
make a contribution to the Trust equal to the amount deferred by
the Plan Participant to insure there are sufficient funds
available to make distributions under the Deferred Compensation
Plan as they become due under the terms of the Deferred
Compensation Plan.

As of the Petition Date, 18 Plan Participants have accounts under
the Deferred Compensation Plan, aggregating approximately
$582,000.  Pursuant to interim and final orders on the Debtors'
Employee Benefits Motion, the Debtors have continued to maintain
and operate the Deferred Compensation Plan and Plan Participants
have continued to defer amounts under the Deferred Compensation
Plan, collectively deferring approximately $26,000.

Some of the Plan Participants are in pay status under the
Deferred Compensation Plan as a result of previously terminating
employment with the Debtors, while others have become entitled
distributions in-service distributions based on prior elections
and the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan.  BofA has
declined to make distributions under the Trust until it obtains
certain direction, authorization and protections as set forth in
the Parties' Stipulation.

Accordingly, the Parties stipulate that:

  (a) The Debtors and BofA are authorized and directed to
      continue to administer and otherwise perform under the
      Trust Agreement and the Deferred Compensation Plan,
      including, but not limited to, the distribution of funds
      to Plan Participants in the ordinary course or upon plan
      termination pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan,
      Section 40A of the Internal Revenue Code, and the Trust
      Agreement.

  (b) The Debtors and BofA are authorized and directed to pay or
      otherwise honor all obligations to Plan Participants
      incurred under or related to the Deferred Compensation
      Plan and Trust Agreement that (i) were or are due and
      payable and relate to the period prior to the Petition
      Date; and (ii) are or become due and payable or relate to
      the period after the Petition Date, in all cases, without
      further order of the Court;

  (c) The Debtors are authorized, but not directed, to pay all
      costs and other obligations owing to BofA in connection
      with the Deferred Compensation Plan and the Trust
      Agreement that may have been outstanding as of the
      Petition Date, and to continue so paying, in the ordinary
      course of business;

  (d) The Trust Agreement, including but not limited to the
      indemnification provisions set forth in the Trust
      Agreement, are approved and enforceable against the
      Debtors' estates.

A full-text copy of the Parties' Stipulation is available for
free at http://bankrupt.com/misc/Borders_BofAStipulation.pdf

Andrew K. Glenn, Esq., at Kasowitz, Benson, Torres & Friedman
LLP, in New York, tells Judge Glenn that the Debtors' Motion only
seeks to clarify that BofA can act in accordance with the Final
Benefits Order.  Absent the relief requested in the motion, the
Plan Participants will suffer undue hardship, because amounts
requested from the Deferred Compensation Plan are needed to
enable the Plan Participants to meet their own personal
obligations, he stresses.  Likewise, a delay of any requested
distribution might have a negative effect on the well being and
morale of the Plan Participants and their families, he maintains.

BORDERS GROUP: Wins OK to Assign Camino Real Lease
--------------------------------------------------
Borders Group Inc. and its units received the Bankruptcy Court's
permission to assume and assign two store lease agreements,
referred to as "Camino Real" and "San Rafael" Leases, to
subsidiaries of The TJX Companies, Inc.

In response to the request to assign the leases, Camino Real
Limited Liability Company, lessor to retail premises located at
the Camino Real Marketplace, in Goleta, California, complained
that the Debtors failed to clearly disclose the identity of the
proposed assignee to the Camino Real Lease.  Camino, pointed out,
among other things, the proposed use of the lease is contrary to
the City of Goleta's Specific Plan for the Camino Real Marketplace
and the Debtors have not demonstrated that permits necessary for
either proposed assignee to operate at that location have been
applied for, much less obtained.

Counsel to the Debtors, Andrew K. Glenn, Esq., at Kasowitz,
Benson, Torres & Friedman LLP, in New York, countered that the
proposed use of the Camino Real Lease, a HomeGoods store, is
expressly permitted in the Camino Real Lease -- which permits any
lawful retail use -- and is not prohibited by any exclusive right
granted to any other tenant.  HomeGoods will obtain the required
city and other governmental agency permits to operate the
HomeGoods store in the City of Goleta, he assures the Court.  He
further noted that TJX has indicated that it will execute a
guarantee for HomeGoods' obligations under the Camino Real Lease.
Moreover, TJX assuredly possesses sufficient assets to continue
the performance called for going forward under the Camino Real
Lease, he said.

"At best, the proposed assumption and assignment of the Camino
Real Lease -- the result of an extensive marketing effort -- will
enable the Debtors to receive $200,000 for this assignment," Mr.
Glenn maintained.

Following a hearing, Judge Martin Glenn has authorized the
Debtors' entry into the TJX Assignment Agreement, acknowledging
that the condition set forth in Section 6(g) of the TJX Assignment
Agreement is waived. Section 6(g) of the TJX Assignment Agreement
provides that an assignment of the Camino Real Lease will have
been consummated prior to the closing of the assignment of the
"San Rafael" Lease to TJX.

The Court has also authorized the Debtors' assumption and
assignment of the lease for the premises at 600 West Francisco
Boulevard, in San Rafael, California -- "San Rafael Lease" --
effective as of June 2, 2011.  The sale or assignment of the San
Rafael Lease will be free and clear of all liens, claims,
encumbrances, and interests, including all claims of employees
and other creditors of the Debtors, Judge Glenn held.

The Debtors will cure any and all monetary defaults accruing
prior to the delivery date as defined in the TJX Assignment
Agreement for the San Rafael Premises, and which may exist at the
time of the assignment of the San Rafael Lease to TJX, from the
Debtors' share of the proceeds relating thereto to the extent a
cure is required pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtors will further pay all amounts, to Toy Center, LLC or
otherwise, that they have agreed to pay in the TJX Assignment
Agreement.  The San Rafael Lease is in full force and effect, and
will be free from default, Judge Glenn ruled.

BOWE BELL: Lazard Middle Market LLC as Investment Banker
--------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Peter J. Walsh of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware authorized Bowe Systec, Inc., et al., to
employ Lazard Middle Market LLC as investment Banker.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on May 16, 2011, LMM
is expected to, among other things:

   a) review and analyze the Debtors' business, operations and
      financial projections;

   b) evaluate the Debtors' potential debt capacity in light of
      their projected cash flows; and

   c) assist in the determination of a capital structure for the
      Debtors.

LMM is a subsidiary of Lazard Freres & Co. LLC.  LMM professionals
have worked with the Debtors' management and other professionals.

Andrew Torgove, managing director at LMM, told the Court that
LMM's fee structure includes:

     a. a monthly fee of $100,000;

     b. a fee equal to $1.5 million, payable upon the consummation
        of a restructuring; and

     c. if, whether in connection with the consummation of a
        restructuring or otherwise, the Debtors consummate a sale
        transaction incorporating all or a majority of the assets
        or all or a majority or controlling interest in the
        equity securities of the Debtors, LMM will be paid a fee
        equal to $1.5 million.

Mr. Torgove related that prepetition, the Debtors made aggregate
fee payments of $969,657 to the firm.  The Debtors paid LMM its
$100,000 monthly fee for the nine previous months.  In addition,
the Debtors made aggregate expense reimbursements to LMM of
$69,657.  No amounts are due to LMM as of the Petition Date.

The Court ordered that LMM's compensation, including, without
limitation, the monthly fee, the restructuring fee, the sale
transaction fee and the minority sale transaction fee are
approved, provided, however, the $1,500,000 restructuring fee and
sale transaction fee is reduced to $1,250,000.

Mr. Torgove assured the Court that LMM is a "disinterested person"
as that term is defined in Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code

C-SWDE348 LLC: Disclosure Statement Hearing Set on June 21
----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Nevada will consider
approval, at a hearing on June 21, 2011 at 1:30 p.m., of the
adequacy of the information in the disclosure statement explaining
the Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization filed by C-SWDE348, LLC.

As previously reported by The Troubled Company Reporter on
April 8, 2011, the Debtors' Plan contemplates the return of the
Lantana Trails Master Plan in Las, Vegas Nevada in full
satisfaction of a promissory note in the amount of $11,575,000
issued by the Debtor's parent for the benefit of the lenders.  The
return will occur by cancelling the equity interests in the Debtor
currently held by the Debtor's parent ad issuing Class A
membership interests in the reorganized Debtor to the Lenders on a
pro rata basis.  In exchange for the cancellation of its common
equity, the Parent will receive Class B membership interests in
the Debtor, which will permit the Parent to receive only limited
distributions from the Debtor.  The Parent, as the holder of the
Class B Membership Interests, will have no voting rights other
than with regard to the dissolution of the reorganized Debtor as
permitted by a new operating agreement.  The purpose of the Plan
is to effectively transfer the ownership of the Property to the
Lenders without the necessity and expense of a foreclosure as well
as to provide a structure and mechanism to protect and improve and
fully realize the value of the Property of the Lenders.

CATHOLIC CHURCH: Milw. Panel Opposes Proposed Bar Dates
-------------------------------------------------------
The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors in the Chapter 11
case of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee asks the Bankruptcy Court not
to grant the Archdiocese's request to establish deadlines for
filing proofs of claim.

James I. Stang, Esq., at Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP, in
Los Angeles, California, relates that the overwhelming majority
of the general unsecured claims that will be filed in this case
are expected to be held by the survivors of alleged sexual abuse
perpetrated by priests employed by the Archdiocese or for whom
the Archdiocese is otherwise responsible.

"Identifying and notifying individuals holding potential abuse
claims is no small task where, as here, there has been a
concerted, well-orchestrated, decades-long cover-up, there may
be living Abuse Survivors who were abused in the Archdiocese as
long ago as 1940, Abuse Survivors may not have connected their
suffering to the abuse or may be reluctant to come forward for
other reasons, and the abuse may have occurred not just in one
church or one parish but in one of the hundreds of Catholic
entities affiliated with the Archdiocese," Mr. Stang argues.

However, Mr. Stang says that at the very least, it is going to
require much more extensive efforts by the Debtor than those
proposed in its request to locate and serve Abuse Survivors, a
longer notice period and more detailed descriptions of the
alleged perpetrators in the proposed Abuse Survivor Bar Date
Notice.  He adds that it will also necessitate that Abuse
Survivor Proof of Claim Forms are submitted to and handled by a
neutral third party Claims Agent, not counsel to the Debtor.

              About the Archdiocese of Milwaukee

The Diocese of Milwaukee was established on November 28, 1843, and
was elevated to an Archdiocese on February 12, 1875, by Pope Pius
IX.  The region served by the Archdiocese consists of 4,758 square
miles in southeast Wisconsin which includes counties Dodge, Fond
du Lac, Kenosha, Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Racine, Sheboygan, Walworth,
Washington and Waukesha.  There are 657,519 registered Catholics
in the Region.

The Catholic Archdiocese of Milwaukee, in Wisconsin, filed for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection (Bankr. E.D. Wisc. Case No.
11-20059) on Jan. 4, 2011, to address claims over sexual abuse
by priests on minors.

The Archdiocese became at least the eighth Roman Catholic diocese
in the U.S. to file for bankruptcy to settle claims from current
and former parishioners who say they were sexually molested by
priests.

Daryl L. Diesing, Esq., at Whyte Hirschboeck Dudek S.C., in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, serves as the Archdiocese's counsel.  The
Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors in the bankruptcy case
has retained Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP as its counsel, and
Howard, Solochek & Weber, S.C., as its local counsel.

The Archdiocese estimated assets and debts of $10 million to
$50 million in its Chapter 11 petition.

reports that CB Holding Corp. says it hopes to "finalize" a
liquidating Chapter 11 plan "soon."  The U.S. Bankruptcy Court in

between January and April.  Not all sales have been completed.  At
a June 23 hearing, Charlie Brown's will seek a three-month
extension until Aug. 12 of the exclusive right to propose a
liquidating plan.  The motion was the company's second for

CENTRALIA OUTLETS: Can Use Sterling Bank's Cash Until July 29
-------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Washington
authorized, on a final basis, Centralia Outlets, LLC, to use cash
collateral until July 29, 2011.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Feb. 23, 2011,
the Debtor executed in February 2007, a promissory note in favor
of Intervest-Mortgage Investment Company in the amount of
$30,750,000.  In connection with the loan, the Debtor also
executed various other documents, including a construction loan
agreement in February 2007, and a deed of trust, assignment of
rents and security agreement pursuant to which it granted
Intervest a lien against the real property and improvements
comprising the Debtor's Outlet Mall and an assignment of leases
and rents therefrom and an assignment of leases and cash
collateral.  Intervest assigned its interests in the loan
documents to Sterling Savings Bank.  As of Dec. 2, 2010, the
Debtor owed the Bank $24,268,584.  The bank has asserted that it
holds all rights as lender under the loan documents.

The Debtor will use the cash collateral to fund its Chapter 11
case, pay suppliers and other parties.

The Bank's security interests and liens in and to post-petition
rents and other income arising from leases entered into prior to
the Petition date, and in those leases themselves, will continue
to the full extent that such security interests and liens were
valid, subsisting and perfected as of the Petition Date.  In
addition, solely to the extent of any diminution in the value of
the interest of the Bank in the Prepetition Collateral, the Bank
is hereby granted security interests and liens in and to (i) all
leases that the Debtor has entered into or may enter into
following the Petition Date, and (ii) all rents and other income
the Debtor receives on account of leases entered into following
the Petition Date.  In addition, the Debtor will continue to pay
the Bank on a monthly basis interest-only payments at the non-
default rate as provided for under the Loan Documents pending
further order of the Court.

                 About Centralia Outlets

income, after debt service, of $80,000 to $100,000 a month.

Centralia filed for Chapter 11 after receiving an order sending
the mall to receivership.  Sterling Bank prevailed on a state
court to order the appointment of a receiver based on alleged non-

extended until Aug. 24, 2011, statutory deadline for Contessa

therewith, and in the process achieve the best possible recovery
for the Debtor's creditors under a plan of reorganization that is
expected to be filed in the next several weeks.

CONTESSA PREMIUM: Has Exclusive Right to File Plan Until July 26
----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California
extended Contessa Premium Foods' exclusive periods to file and
solicit acceptances for the proposed chapter 11 plan until
July 26, 2011, and Sept. 26, respectively.

The Debtor related it needed more time to:

   -- complete the sale transaction;

   -- complete its negotiations with the Key Creditor Group over
      the terms of a consensual plan;

   -- estimate the extent of proceeds that will be available to
      distribute to creditors; and

   -- formulate a chapter 11 plan on a more informed basis.

The Debtor and the Key Creditor Group decided that the better
course would be to sell the Debtor's assets at an auction while
also permitting John Blazevich, the Debtor's president and chief
executive officer, to bid on the assets.

Under the approved procedures, the deadline for submitting bids is
scheduled for June 8, the auction is scheduled for June 13, and

The revised cash collateral budget is available for free at:

   http://bankrupt.com/misc/diabetesamerica_revcashcollbudget.pdf

As reported in the TCR on Mar 14, 2011, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of Texas authorized, on a final basis,
Diabetes America, Inc., to use the cash collateral of MetroBank,
N.A., and the other secured creditors.

                      About Diabetes America

FAIRFIELD SENTRY: Court Grants Time Extension to Assert Claims
--------------------------------------------------------------
Kenneth M Krys and Joanna Lau of KRyS Global, the Joint
Liquidators of Fairfield Sentry Ltd., Fairfield Sigma Ltd. and
Fairfield Lambda Ltd. disclosed another landmark decision in the
Fairfield liquidation.  On May 23, 2011, in In re Fairfield Sentry
Ltd., Bankruptcy Judge Lifland of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York ruled that the provisions of
Section 108 of the US Bankruptcy Code, which grants a two-year
extension of time for a trustee in bankruptcy to bring law suits
provided that the applicable time period to commence action had
not expired before the petition was filed, are self-executing and
applicable to foreign representatives in a Chapter 15 case.

This is a milestone decision; it is the first written and reasoned
opinion on whether Section 108's two year extension applies in
Chapter 15 cases.  Fairfield Sentry Limited and its affiliated
funds Fairfield Sigma Limited and Fairfield Lambda Limited were
the largest 'feeder' funds into the Bernard Madoff Ponzi Scheme.
The US Bankruptcy Court recognized the Funds' liquidation
proceedings in the British Virgin Islands as foreign main
proceedings on July 22, 2010.

This decision ultimately provides foreign representatives with
additional assistance for preserving a foreign debtor's claims
which may be asserted in the US.  Furthermore it may allow foreign
representatives, in connection with Chapter 15 proceedings, the
right to bring claims in the United States that otherwise might
have become time barred under US or Foreign Law.  The Joint
Liquidators of the Fairfield Funds, Mr Kenneth Krys and Ms. Joanna
Lau of KRyS Global, believe that there are significant strategic
and economic benefits to the estates in obtaining the additional
time provided by the tolling period extension under Section 108.
They anticipate that this recent success will further encourage
parties to approach the liquidators to settle therefore minimizing
the burden on the estates.

The joint liquidators were represented by their US Attorneys,
David J. Molton and Daniel J. Saval of Brown Rudnick LLP, in this
matter.

                     About Fairfield Sentry

Fairfield Sentry is being liquidated under the supervision of the
Commercial Division of the High Court of Justice in the British
Virgin Islands.  It is one of the funds owned by the Fairfield
Greenwich Group, an investment firm founded in 1983 in New York
City.  Fairfield Sentry and other Greenwich funds had among the
largest exposures to the Bernard L. Madoff fraud.

Fairfield Sentry Limited filed for Chapter 15 protection (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-13164) on June 14, 2010.

Greenwich Sentry, L.P., and an affiliate filed for Chapter 11
protection (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-16229) on Nov. 19, 2010,
hoping to settle lawsuits filed against it in connection with its
investments with Bernard L. Madoff.

On May 18, 2009, Irving H. Picard, the trustee liquidating the
estate of Mr. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment
Securities, LLC, filed a lawsuit against Fairfield Sentry and
Greenwich, seeking the return of US$3.55 billion that Fairfield
withdrew from Madoff during the period from 2002 to Madoff's
arrest in December 2008.  Since 1995, the Fairfield funds invested
about US$4.5 billion with BLMIS.

Mr. Picard claims that Fairfield knew or should have known about
the fraud give that it received from BLMIS unrealistically high
and consistent annual returns of between 10% and 21% in contrast
to the vastly larger fluctuations in the S&P 100 Index.


FIRST CONNECTICUT: Arent Fox Seeks Dismissal of Malpractice Suit
----------------------------------------------------------------
Roxanne Palmer at Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Arent Fox LLP
asked a Utah federal court on Friday to dismiss Dare Investments
LLC's fraud suit against the law firm or transfer it to
Connecticut, where the underlying bankruptcy case is pending.

Dare Investments' suit, in which it claims the firm withheld
information from Dare while operating as an escrow agent in the
bankruptcy proceedings of First Connecticut Consulting Group Inc.,
is "a classic case of a claimant in search of a deep-pocketed
defendant, no matter how flimsy the claim," Arent Fox said.


FLORIDA EXTRUDERS: To Lay Off All 81 Workers Next Month
-------------------------------------------------------
Linda Florea at the Orlando Sentinel reports that Florida
Extruders International Inc. in Sanford expects to lay off all 81
employees by early July, apparently as part of a planned
bankruptcy liquidation.

According to a letter sent by the company to the state Agency for
Workforce Innovation, the Sanford business is to be sold later
this month and may permanently close, resulting in the layoff of
17 salaried and 64 hourly employees.  The layoffs are scheduled to
occur between June 20 and July 3, the company said.

The report relates that the Debtor has filed a liquidation plan
with U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Orlando.

                      About Florida Extruders

Headquartered in Sanford, Florida, Florida Extruders
International, Inc. -- http://www.floridaextruders.com/-- was
formed in 1989 and is a low cost, vertically integrated aluminum
extruder, window, sliding glass door, and patio screen door
manufacturer, and building products distributor.  It filed a bare-
bones Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. M.D. Fla. Case No. 11-07761) on
April 25, 2011.  The Debtor has $26.3 million in assets and
$16.9 million in debt, mainly owed to lender Wells Fargo & Co.
The case has been assigned to Judge K. Rodney May.  Christopher C.
Todd, Esq., at McIntyre, Panzarella, Thanasides, serves as the
Debtor's counsel.


FLORIDA STAGE: Closes Curtains, Mulls Chapter 7 Filing
------------------------------------------------------
Leslie Gray Streeter and Carlos Frias at the Palm Beach Post
report that Florida Stage shut down Monday morning and announced
plans to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, citing factors including a
$1.5 million debt and a downturn in contributions from victims of
financial swindler Bernard Madoff.

According to the report, the announcement, which staff members
said came without warning, leaves about 30 full-time employees
without work and the local cultural community stunned at the
demise of the well-regarded, 24-year theater institution in Palm
Beach County.

The report says Theater statements cited "a marked downturn" in
subscription sales for the 2011-12 season.  Overall, the company's
subscription base had shrunk from a high of 7,000 to fewer than
2,000.

Furloughs, a budget reduction from $4.1 million to $3 million and
reduced rent -- the company moved last year from its longtime base
in Manalapan to the Kravis Center's Rinker Playhouse -- didn't  do
enough to turn around Florida Stage's finances.


GLAZIER GROUP: Says Committee's FTI Retention Unnecessary
---------------------------------------------------------
The Glazier Group, Inc., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York to deny the Official Committee of
Unsecured Creditors request to retain FTI Consulting, Inc., as
financial advisor.

The Debtor relates that FTI's proposed fee structure is
troublesome for a number of reasons:

   1. the monthly fees are excessive for a case of this size;

   2. FTI's proposed fee structure contains a completion fee which
      is an unwarranted enhancement to the already exorbitant
      monthly fees, moreover, the completion fee is based upon
      recoveries to unsecured creditors and which may prove
      difficult to measure; and

   3. the Committee failed to show any necessity for FTI's
      services in this small case.

                      About The Glazier Group

New York-based The Glazier Group, Inc., filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection on November 15, 2010 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case
No. 10-16099).  Frederick E. Schmidt, Esq., Joshua Joseph Angel,
Esq., and Seth F. Kornbluth, Esq., at Herrick, Feinstein LLP,
represent the Debtor in its restructuring effort.  The Company
disclosed assets of $15.2 million and liabilities of $26.8 million
as of the Petition Date.

Tracy Hope Davis, the U.S. Trustee for Region 2, appointed three
creditors to serve on an Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors.  The Committee tapped SilvermanAcampora LLP as its
counsel.


GENERAL GROWTH: Committee Backs Plea for Payment of New World Fees
------------------------------------------------------------------
Tracy Hope Davis, the United States Trustee for Region 2, opposes
General Trust Company's request for reimbursement of expenses
related to the services provided by New World Realty Advisors,
LLC from December 22, 2009 through October 26, 2010 for $598,337.

The United States Trustee, among other things, claims that GTC is
not entitled to reimbursement pursuant to Section 503(b)(3)(F) of
the Bankruptcy Code as that section only entitles a committee
member to have an administrative expense claim for expenses
incurred in the performance of committee duties, like expenses for
travel, lodging and meal expenses incurred while attending
committee meetings or court hearings.  It does not entitle GTC to
reimbursement of professional fees.

Counsel to the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, John J.
Jerome, Esq., at Saul Ewing LLP, in New York, however, filed with
the Court a declaration in support of General Trust Company's
request for allowance of administrative expense claim.

Mr. Jerome stated that New World Realty Advisors, LLC's services
to General Trust were essential to advance the Equity Committee's
ability to fully and adequately perform its statutory duties with
respect to equity and to ensure an understanding of General
Growth Properties, Inc.'s complex financial position.  He
insisted that GTC made a substantial contribution to the
advancement of GGP's Chapter 11 case by making the New World
Advisory Services available to the Equity Committee, at its
expense:

  (i) during the critical period when the competitive process
      which had significant implications for equity recovery was
      unfolding; and

(ii) with respect to the GGP development properties which, as
      the assets earmarked to be distributed to existing equity
      holders on spin-off of The Howard Hughes Corporation, were
      critical components of the Plan that the Equity Committee
      needed to evaluate in order to exercise its duty to make a
      recommendation with respect to the Plan to GGP
      shareholders, the only impaired classes entitled to vote.

The Court held a hearing to consider GTC's request on
May 26, 2011.  No order has yet been entered by the Court.

GREAT ATLANTIC: Hearing on New Contract With C&S on June 23
-----------------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. will seek approval
from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in White Plains, New York, on
June 23 of an agreement with C&S Wholesale Grocers Inc., its
principal supplier, on a new contract when the supermarket
operator emerges from Chapter 11 reorganization.

Mr. Rochelle relates that Keene, New Hampshire-based C&S provides
about 70% of the goods in A&P stores under a contract dating from
2008.  A&P has been shopping for a cheaper supplier since before
the Chapter 11 filing in December.  Although A&P will start
realizing savings immediately, the new contract won't lock in
unless and until the company emerges from reorganization
successfully.  If A&P liquidates or is sold, it will be obliged to
pay C&S about $1 million for each week, or roughly the savings
from the existing arrangement.  In addition, C&S won't assert any
claim from the termination of the existing contract.  Otherwise,
A&P said C&S might have ended up with the largest unsecured claim.
The new arrangement does not require A&P to continue operating any
minimum number of stores.

As reported in yesterday's Troubled Company Reporter, the Debtors
announced that they will enter into a new supply and logistics
agreement with C&S Wholesale Grocers.  A&P estimates the revised
contract will generate a run-rate of more than $50 million in
annual savings, which will be realized in cash beginning upon the
Company's emergence from Chapter 11 pursuant to a plan of
reorganization.  The new agreement will also help the Company
generate cash savings in the near-term by significantly and
immediately improving supply chain and operational efficiency, as
well as provide the Company with key service enhancements.

HARRY & DAVID: PBGC Fights to Save Pension Plan
-----------------------------------------------
The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, which protects American
pensions, is fighting a move by Harry & David Holdings Inc. to end
the pensions of its 2,700 workers and retirees.

"We work to preserve both businesses and their pensions," said
PBGC Director Josh Gotbaum.  "PBGC doesn't ask a company to risk
its business if it can't afford its pension plan, but many
companies have gone through bankruptcy with their pensions intact,
and we think Harry & David might be one of them."

Harry & David, a Medford, Ore.-based marketer of specialty gift
baskets, is in bankruptcy.  The company has claimed that it can't
reorganize unless it terminates its pension plan.

However, PBGC's financial analysis shows that the company will be
able to emerge from bankruptcy without cutting off its workers'
pensions.  The bankruptcy court will hold a hearing on the issue
on July 22, 2011.

If the pension plan is terminated, PBGC will pay pension benefits
to Harry & David employees.  However, because of limits set by
law, some retirees might get reduced pensions, and PBGC does not
insure health benefits at all.

"Time after time, PBGC has worked successfully with companies and
their creditors to make sure that the bankruptcy process
recognizes the rights of pensioners, too," Mr. Gotbaum said. "We
know that Harry & David can reorganize successfully.  We'd just
like to make sure that their employees and retirees share in that
success.  Preserving a plan is almost always better for
employees."

The PBGC protects the pension benefits of 44 million Americans in
27,500 private-sector pension plans.  The agency is directly
responsible for paying the benefits of more than 1.5 million
people in failed pension plans.  PBGC receives no taxpayer dollars
and never has. Its operations are financed by insurance premiums
and with assets and recoveries from failed plans.

HOWREY LLP: Court Order Allows Law Firm to Control Liquidation
--------------------------------------------------------------
Dow Jones' DBR Small Cap reports that Howrey LLP fended off
creditors seeking an outsider to oversee its liquidation and won
the right to wind down its own operations in bankruptcy.

                        About Howrey LLP

Three creditors filed an involuntary Chapter 7 petition (Bankr.
N.D. Calif. Case No. 11-31376) on April 11, 2011, against the
remnants of the Washington-based law firm Howrey LLP.  The filing
was in San Francisco, where the firm had an office.  The firm
previously was known as Howrey & Simon and Howrey Simon Arnold &
White LLP.  The firm at one time had more than 700 lawyers in 17
offices.  The partners voted to dissolve in March.  The firm
specialized in antitrust and intellectual-property matters.  The
three creditors filing the involuntary petition together have
$36,600 in claims, according to their petition.  The firm can
defeat the petition by showing it is generally paying debts as
they come due.  The firm can also consent to bankruptcy and
convert the case in Chapter 11, where the firm's management would
remain in control, at least initially.


HPT DEVELOPMENT: Reorganization Case Dismissed
----------------------------------------------
The Hon. Sarah S. Curley of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Arizona dismissed the Chapter 11 bankruptcy case of
HPT Development Corporation.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on March 25, 2011,
the Bankruptcy Court approved a settlement agreement between
the Debtor and Heritage Bank wherein the bank would receive its
collateral and $125,000 in cash; and the bankruptcy case and a
state court action against the non-debtor guarantors and borrowers
would both be dismissed.

Pre-bankruptcy, the bank made construction and business loans to
the Debtor and Tay Land Holdings, LLC.  The bank contends that as
of the bankruptcy petition date, the amount due under the
construction loan is $11.7 million and under the business loan is
$1.5 million.  The loans are secured by property of the Debtor.

The bank initiated the state court action CV2009-038303 against
the borrowers and guarantors alleging default under the loans.  A
summary judgment motion by the bank has been granted, but no
judgment has been entered.

Under the settlement, the bank agreed to a broad release of its
claims against the borrowers and guarantors.  The accord ends
protracted litigation among the parties.

At a hearing on Feb. 25, D. Lamar Hawkins, Esq., at Aiken Schenk
Hawkins & Ricciardi P.C., attorney for HPT Development, told the
Court once the settlement is approved, the Debtor will make
payments and file a motion to dismiss the bankruptcy case.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter, the Bankruptcy Court
began hearings in July 2010 to consider the adequacy of the
Disclosure Statement.  The hearing, however, has been continued a
number of times due a dispute with Heritage Bank, on the valuation
of the Debtor's properties.  Heritage Bank sought a declaration
that the Debtor was a "single asset real estate," and that the
bank should be allowed to proceed with the pending trustee's sales
of the properties.  The Debtor opposed, asserting that the
property has equity as it is currently valued at $14.65 million,
well in excess of the bank's secured claims.  The Debtor has also
commenced an adversary proceeding against Heritage to enjoin the
bank from proceeding with a civil lawsuit.

Early in February month, the Debtor filed a plan supplement
containing a "liquidation analysis".  According to the liquidation
analysis, "[t]he Debtor asserts, but Heritage Bank disagrees, that
the amount of the secured claims is less than the value of the
assets."  The Debtor asserted that the assets have market value
totaling $14,868,000, compared to secured claims totaling
$13,302,000.

"If the Debtor is correct, the real property being turned over to
Heritage Bank, subject to the secured claim of Maricopa County,
frees up the remaining assets for the payment of administrative,
priority and general unsecured claims".

The Debtor opposes a liquidation of the assets under Chapter 7 as
the "full market value for the assets cannot be obtained."

INNKEEPERS USA: Spars With Midland Over Deficiency Claim
--------------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that hotel owner Innkeepers USA Trust, its owner Apollo
Investment Corp., and Midland Loan Services Inc., the largest
secured creditor, were in court yesterday, June 7, arguing over
whether Midland waived its right to a deficiency claim against
Innkeepers' parent Grand Prix Holdings LLC.

According to the report, Apollo said in a court filing it "has
reason to believe" Midland waived its deficiency claim of some
$115 million.  Midland is servicer for $825 million of fixed-rate
mortgages on 45 hotels.  Midland wants the judge to rule June 7
whether the claim is valid and whether it's entitled to vote the
claim on the Chapter 11 plan for the parent Grand Prix. Innkeepers
and Apollo both argue there is no reason for a ruling now.
Innkeepers says it's not even clear whether any money will be left
over for distribution to Grand Prix's creditors or shareholders.
Innkeepers' papers said the most recent estimate showed that Grand
Prix may have as much as $6.8 million for distribution or might
not have anything at all.

JEFFERSON COUNTY: May Slash Jobs to Avoid Chapter 9 Filing
----------------------------------------------------------
Samuel Howard at Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Jefferson County,
Alabama, on Monday reportedly proposed shedding one-third of the
county's workforce in order to avoid the largest municipal
bankruptcy in U.S. history.

The county's finance committee met Tuesday to discuss draconian
budget plans, which includes laying off 697 employees, a move that
would save the municipality about $12.3 million as it limps toward
the September end of its fiscal year, The Birmingham News
reported, Law360 says.

                    About Jefferson County

Jefferson County has its seat in Birmingham, Alabama.  It has a
population of 660,000.  It ended its 2006 fiscal year with a
$42.6 million general fund balance, according to Standard &
Poor's.

Jefferson County is trying to restructure $3.2 billion in sewer
debt.  A bankruptcy by Jefferson County stands to be the largest
municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history.  It could beat the record of
$1.7 billion set by Orange County, California in 1994.

In September 2010, Alabama Circuit Court Judge Albert Johnson
named John S. Young Jr. LLC as receiver for the sewer system.

KENTUCKIANA HOSPITAL: Plan Exclusivity Extended Until July 18
-------------------------------------------------------------
Ben Zion Hershberg at the Courier Journal reports that U.S.
Bankruptcy Judge Basil Lorch III has set a July 18 deadline for
the Kentuckiana Medical Center LLC to develop a plan to solve its
financial problems.

"That will be the final extension of exclusivity," Judge Lorch
said, referring to his order after the Clarksville Hospital
declared bankruptcy in September allowing the hospital's managers
to create a reorganization plan.

According to the report, it's likely that the hospital's fate will
be known well before the July 18 deadline.

The Courier Journal relates that Neil Bordy, a lawyer for the
medical center, said many of the hospital's financial problems may
be resolved at a July 1 hearing on the value of the hospital's
real estate.  The real estate is owned by a company that,
technically, is separate from the company that runs the hospital.

Mr. Bordy said the hospital's top management - which also controls
the real-estate company - is seeking an $11 million loan from a
California venture-capital company that would be secured by the
real estate.  The money would be used to complete the hospital,
Mr. Bordy said, adding beds and putting the emergency room in use
to generate additional revenue.

The hospital real-estate company, says courier-journal.com, also
is getting an appraisal that will help determine whether the land
and building are valuable enough to secure the $11 million loan in
addition to the $20 million mortgage already on the property.

                         Ch. 7 Conversion

Meanwhile, the Courier Journal reports that Jeff Heller, a lawyer
for the hospital's unsecured creditors, said his clients would
agree to delay until July 12 a hearing on their motion to convert
the hospital's Chapter 11 reorganization to a Chapter 7
liquidation.  The center's lawyers have told Mr. Heller "they're
expecting a large Medicare payment and believe when that comes in,
they can get current on administrative expenses. They also are
getting an appraisal of the real property."

KIEBLER RECREATION: Creditors Want Trustee to Take Over
-------------------------------------------------------
Ed Palattella at Erie Times-News reports that the owner of Peek'n
Peak Resort and Spa risks losing control of the ski and golf
complex even before it is sold in U.S. Bankruptcy Court by
Sept. 1, 2011.

According to the report, the Peak's creditors are pushing for a
court-appointed trustee to take over operations of the 1,150-acre
complex from Paul E. Kiebler IV, the Cleveland-area developer
whose company, Kiebler Recreation LLC, owns the Peak, near Findley
Lake, N.Y.  Without a trustee, the creditors claim, the Peak could
close before a sale.

Eerie Times-News says the creditors, including Huntington National
Bank, which Kiebler Recreation owes more than $17 million, are
claiming Paul Kiebler is failing to follow the sale plan he
accepted at a court hearing May 24.  The sale hearing is scheduled
for Aug. 9, at the federal courthouse in Cleveland, with the sale
to be complete by Sept. 1.

Mr. Kiebler, the creditors are claiming, has failed to approve the
application of a chief restructuring officer, or CRO, who is
supposed to prepare the Peak for the sale.  Mr. Kiebler is also
refusing to approve the hiring of an investment banker, another
provision of the court order that details the sale plan, the
creditors said.

Mr. Kiebler's lack of cooperation, "if allowed to continue,
threatens to force a liquidation and the cessation of operations
of the Peek'n Peak resort," a lawyer for a creditors' committee
said in a court filing on Friday.  "This nightmare scenario is
entirely preventable."

Erie Times-News relates that the creditors want U.S. Bankruptcy
Judge Randolph Baxter, seated in Cleveland, to appoint a trustee
to oversee the Peak and get it ready for sale at a public auction.

If Kiebler remains in charge, the creditors are claiming, the Peak
will continue to lose money and the sale will be in jeopardy.
Proceeds from the sale will go to Huntington and the other
creditors, whom Kiebler Recreation owed a total of $28 million
when it filed for bankruptcy, notes Eerie Times-News.

The creditors in the Peak case, according to the report, said
another reason for a trustee is Mr. Kiebler's inability to develop
a reorganization plan for Kiebler Recreation, which filed for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy on May 26, 2010.  The reorganization plan
would have allowed Kiebler Recreation to pay its debts without a
sale of the Peak.

LANDMARK MEDICAL: Judge Rules Steward Health Can Discuss Takeover
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Robert Weisman at Boston.com reports that a judge in Rhode Island
ruled that Boston's Steward Health Care Systems LLC could move
forward with negotiating a takeover of financially troubled
Landmark Medical Center in Woonsocket, which has been in court-
appointed receivership for the past three years.

Landmark had begun talking about a sale to Steward Health Care's
predecessor, Caritas Christi Health Care, in 2009 but talks broke
off without an agreement last December, according to the report.
The report relates that the parties recently resumed negotiations
and were working to finalize the terms of a buyout agreement.

Boston.com notes that the deal, which will require approval by
state regulators in Rhode Island, would represent Steward Health
Care's first out-of-state acquisition.  The eight-month-old
holding company has been building a chain of for-profit community
hospitals in Massachusetts and beyond under the direction of its
ambitious chief executive, Ralph de la Torre, the report relates.

The talks with Landmark Medical had bogged down last year partly
because Steward executives were unable to negotiate higher
payments from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Rhode Island, the state's
largest health insurer, Boston.com recalls.

The report notes that Blue Cross and Steward Health still have not
agreed on a new insurance contract for Landmark, and the insurer
today objected to the pace at which Landmark's talks with Steward
is moving.

Blue Cross is one of Landmark's largest creditors and is owed $3
million by the Woonsocket hospital, said Kimberly Reingold, a
spokeswoman for the insurance carrier, the report discloses.
Since the Landmark talks with Steward broke off last year, Blue
Cross has been negotiating with several other potential buyers of
the community hospital, she added.

Steward Health Care was created by private equity firm Cerberus
Capital Management to run the six Catholic hospitals in the
Caritas system it bought last fall, including St. Elizabeth's
Medical Center and Carney Hospital in Boston, converting them from
non-profit to for-profit status.

LEHMAN BROTHERS: Proposes Settlement With 1107 Broadway
-------------------------------------------------------
Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York to approve a settlement
agreement with 1107 Broadway LLC to recover its stake in a
Manhattan property.

LBHI previously filed a lawsuit in the New York Supreme Court
against 1107 Broadway seeking foreclosure of the property, a 16-
story building in Manhattan owned by 1107 Broadway.  The company
also filed separate lawsuits seeking foreclosure sale of its
interest in 1107 Broadway Mezz I LLC as well as the interest of a
Lehman subsidiary in the equity of 1107 Broadway Mezz II LLC.

The lawsuits came after 1107 Broadway failed to implement its
development plan to convert the property into a luxury
condominium and defaulted on its payment obligations to LBHI.
LBHI agreed to provide as much as $343.4 million to 1107 Broadway
entities to acquire the property and complete the development
project.

The proposed settlement provides for an auction that allows LBHI
to maximize its recovery from the property and, in case the
auction is not successful, contains a mechanism for the company
to take title to the property without contested litigation,
according to Lehman lawyer, Jacqueline Marcus, Esq., at Weil
Gotshal Manges LLP, in New York.

The settlement agreement provides for 1107 Broadway's entry into
a sale agreement with a third party called 1107 Broadway Owner
LLC to purchase the property for $161.5 million.  1107 Broadway
Owner's offer will serve as the stalking horse bid or the lead
bid at the auction.

The settlement agreement also calls for the withdrawal of claims
filed by the borrowers and the guarantor, Yitzchak Tessler, in
LBHI's bankruptcy case and for the mutual releases of claims
involving the Manhattan property.

If the Court approves the settlement agreement before June 17,
2011, the auction will be scheduled for June 29, 2011.  Any
interested buyer is required to deposit a sum of $5 million and
submit a form of sale agreement by June 27, 2011.

A full-text copy of the settlement agreement is available without
charge at:

The Court will hold a hearing on June 15, 2011, to consider
approval of the proposed settlement.  The deadline for filing
objections is June 8, 2011.

LEHMAN BROTHERS: LCPI Has Settlement with Latshaw Drilling
----------------------------------------------------------
Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. has asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of New York to approve an agreement to
settle its claims against Latshaw Drilling Company LLC and
Latshaw Drilling and Exploration Company Inc.

The claims, each asserting not less than $45,847,390, were filed
in a bankruptcy court in Oklahoma, which oversees Latshaw's
Chapter 11 cases.  The claims stemmed from the 2008 credit
agreement, under which LCPI and two other lenders, Ableco Finance
LLC and A3 Funding LP, agreed to provide financing to Latshaw.

The filing of LCPI's claims drew objection from the Latshaw
entities, which sought to either disallow the claims or recoup
against those claims the damages they incurred from LCPI's
alleged failure to provide financing under the credit agreement.

Under the proposed settlement, LCPI's claims will be reduced and
allowed.  The company will receive a lump-sum payment with
respect to certain payments that were deposited in escrow
pursuant to Latshaw's restructuring plan.  LCPI will also receive
additional payments for its claims over the term of the new
credit agreement, which it entered into with Latshaw and Ableco
in August 2010.

The proposed deal also requires LCPI to file with the Oklahoma
bankruptcy court a supplement to another claim it asserts against
Latshaw for expenses entitled to priority.  The Oklahoma
bankruptcy court will determine the allowed amount of that claim,
which will be added to the principal amount owed to LCPI under
the new credit agreement.

The settlement agreement requires approval of both the Oklahoma
bankruptcy court and the New York bankruptcy court, which
oversees LCPI's Chapter 11 case.

The payments made by Latshaw under the proposed settlement and
the new credit agreement will be distributed to LCPI's creditors,
according to Howard Liao, Senior Vice-President for LAMCO LLC's
Private Equity and Principal Investments.

The New York Bankruptcy Court will hold a hearing on June 15,
2011, to consider approval of the settlement agreement.

LEHMAN BROTHERS: Wants Goldman Forced to Produce Documents
----------------------------------------------------------
Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. asks Judge Peck to order Goldman
Sachs & Co. and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. to turn over documents
related to an ongoing investigation into whether rumors about the
company's condition damaged its business during the 2008
financial crisis.

LBHI is seeking in particular e-mails and instant messages of
Goldman Sachs custodians in New York who were involved in
marketing prime brokerage services to hedge funds and in London-
based proprietary trading of Lehman securities.

LBHI's investigation reportedly reveals that some Goldman Sachs
employees may have been involved in originating or spreading
rumors about the company.  The documents sought by the company
are needed to determine whether to make claims against Goldman
Sachs.

Gary Dunn, Esq., at Kasowitz, Benson, Torres & Friedman LLP, in
New York, complained that Goldman Sachs was slow in identifying
the custodians and was unable to say when the turnover of
documents would be completed.

"Goldman Sachs is deliberately moving at a glacial pace in an
effort to run out the statute of limitations without producing
the requested documents," the Lehman lawyer said in court papers.

LBHI is asking the bankruptcy judge to compel Goldman Sachs to
turn over the documents within two weeks of his decision.

Judge Peck will hold a hearing on June 15, 20ll, to consider
approval of the request.  The deadline for filing objections is
June 8, 2011.

LEHMAN BROTHERS: Wins Nod to Adjust Kramer Levin Terms
------------------------------------------------------
Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and its affiliates sought and
obtained the Bankruptcy Court's authority to modify the procedures
for compensating and reimbursing Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel
LLP, as special counsel to the Debtors, effective as of October 1,
2010.

Kramer Levin has been engaged by the Debtors to provide
employment law related services, and was retained as an "Ordinary
Course Professional" since October 2008, Richard Krasnow, Esq.,
at Weil Gotshal & Manges LLP, in New York, told the Court.  He
asserted that this application is solely intended to put in place
a different payment mechanism with respect to Kramer Levin's fees
and expenses incurred in providing those legal services it has
been providing.

During the course of the bankruptcy cases, Kramer Levin has been
providing legal services with respect to the Representative
Matters, on behalf of the Debtors, as an OCP pursuant to the
Court's amended order authorizing the Debtors to employ OCPs, Mr.
Krasnow related.  He said that Kramer Levin was included in the
second amended list of OCPs.

The Amended OCP Order authorizes the Debtors to pay compensation
to and reimburse the expenses of OCPs in the full amount billed
by each OCP "upon receipt of reasonably detailed invoices
indicating the nature of the services rendered and calculated in
accordance with such professional's standard billing practices."
In accordance with the Amended OCP Order, Kramer Levin provided
services to the Debtors and was or will be compensated for those
services upon the presentation of detailed invoices indicating
the nature of the services rendered, which were calculated in
accordance with Kramer Levin's standard billing practices.

The Amended OCP Order further provides that payment to any OCP
will not exceed $1 million for the period prior to the conversion
of, dismissal of, or entry of a confirmation in the cases, and
that in the event payment to any OCP exceeds $1 million during
the Chapter 11 Period, the OCP will be required to file a
retention application to be retained as a professional pursuant
to Sections 327 and 328 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Mr. Krasnow said that Kramer Levin's fees and expenses as of
October 1, 2010, approximated the $1 million compensation cap for
OCPs during the Chapter 11 Period.

The Debtors said that Kramer Levin provided necessary services,
those services are of value to the bankruptcy estate and the
continued retention of Kramer Levin is necessary and appropriate.
By this application, the Debtors proposed that Kramer Levin
continue to advise them in connection with the Representative
Matters.  They also asked that the modification of the procedures
for compensating and reimbursing Kramer Levin be made effective
as of October 1, 2010, to ensure that Kramer Levin is compensated
for all of its services to the Debtors.

Kramer Levin will be paid based on its customary hourly rates for
services rendered that are in effect from time to time.  Kramer
Levin current hourly billing rates range from $685 to $995 for
partners, $670 to $1,050 for counsel, $395 to $735 for
associates, and $250 to $300 for paralegals.  Kramer Levin will
also be reimbursed for its reasonable and necessary expenses.

Kevin B. Leblang, Esq., a Kramer Levin partner, assured the Court
that his firm does not hold or represent an interest that is
adverse to the Debtors or their estates in the matters for which
it is proposed to be retained, subject to the previous
disclosures contained in its OCP Affidavits.

LEHMAN BROTHERS: Parties React to Claims Determination Protocol
---------------------------------------------------------------
Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and its affiliated debtors have
sought court approval to implement a process to determine the
allowed amount of more than 21,000 proofs of claim for the purpose
of voting and distribution under their proposed Chapter
11 plan.

As reported in the May 4, 2011 edition of the Troubled Company
Reporter, the claims, aggregating $55 billion, are based on
structured securities issued or guaranteed by LBHI.  A list of
these claims is available without charge at:

  http://bankrupt.com/misc/LBHI_SecuritiesClaims.pdf

"The procedures proposed are intended to ease the administration
of the immense number of these complex claims while neither
affecting nor modifying in any way the substantive rights of any
claimant to dispute LBHI's proposed allowed claim amounts," says
the Debtors' lawyer, Alfredo Perez, Esq., at Weil Gotshal &
Manges LLP, in Houston, Texas.

A full-text copy of the proposed order detailing the securities
claim determination process is available without charge at:

   http://bankrupt.com/misc/LBHI_PropOrdSecuritiesClaims.pdf

                           Responses

A. Creditors' Committee

In a statement, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
agrees with the Debtors that their proposed structured securities
claim procedures are in the best interests of the bankruptcy
estates and creditors because absent streamlined procedures to
administer those claims, the Debtors would be forced to resolve
each claim through expensive and time consuming litigation either
before the Court or through the ADR procedures.  That litigation
would likely delay both voting on the Plans and Plan
distributions to all creditors, the Creditors' Committee says.
Accordingly, the Creditors' Committee is not objecting to the
limited relief regarding the proposed procedures requested in the
Motion.

However, based on the sample testing conducted by the Creditors'
Committee's financial advisors on the valuations of the
underlying Structured Securities, result shows that there may be
statistically relevant discrepancies between the Debtors'
prepetition valuations and the values arrived at through the
Creditors' Committee's sample testing process, Dennis Dunne,
Esq., at Milbank Tweed Hadley & McCloy LLP, in New York, tells
Judge Peck.

Because neither the Creditors' Committee nor the Debtors have
reached closure on their respective reassessments of the accuracy
of the Debtors' prepetition valuations, the Creditors' Committee
will continue to work with the Debtors to ascertain whether this
statistical sample evidences a broader valuation problem and, if
it does, to reach a satisfactory resolution of this issue, Mr.
Dunne says.  Nevertheless, he explains, if the Creditors'
Committee's concerns have not been resolved by the time the
Debtors seek to publish the proposed allowed claim amounts and
mail the notices to claimants, the Creditors' Committee may take
the position that the proposed allowed claim amounts should not
be disseminated.  Hence, the Creditors' Committee reserves all of
its rights, including the right to object to the dissemination of
the list of the proposed allowed claim amounts on or before June
15, 2011, in the event the Creditors' Committee concludes that
the claim amounts produced by the Debtors' methodologies are not
sound.

B. Commerzbank

Commerzbank AG tells Judge Peck that it recognizes the potential
burden on Debtors, creditors, and the Court, which the Motion
seeks to alleviate, and does not oppose, in concept, the approval
of procedures to coordinate the process of determining allowed
amounts of claims filed based on Structured Securities.  However,
Commerzbank says its objects to the Motion because:

   (i) its proposed procedures will produce the unfair result of
       different maximum allowable amounts being applied to a
       single security held by multiple creditors; and

  (ii) it fails to provide adequate procedures to govern the
       objection stage of the process, in the event that a
       creditor responds to a notice and no consensual
       resolution is reached.

C. Non-Consolidation Plan Proponents

These Non-Consolidation Plan Proponents, many of which are also
holders of "Structured Securities" issued or guaranteed by LBHI,
jointly filed a limited objection to the Motion:

  * Deutsche Bank AG;

  * Cyrus Capital Partners LP, Silver Point Capital L.P., and
    York Capital Management Global Advisors LLC;

  * Credit Agricole CIB;

  * Credit Suisse International;

  * certain funds managed by and affiliated with Angelo, Gordon
    & Co. L.P., Contrarian Capital Management LLC, Goldentree
    Asset Management LP, Hayman Capital Management LP,
    Knighthead Capital Management LLC, Mason Capital Management
    LLC, Mount Kellett Capital Management, Oaktree Capital
    Management L.P., and Serengeti Asset Management LP;

  * The Royal Bank of Scotland plc;

  * Oaktree Capital Management L. P., solely in its capacity as
    agent on behalf of certain funds advised by it or their
    respective subsidiaries, and Silver Point Capital, L.P. on
    behalf of its affiliated investment funds; and

  * D. E. Shaw Composite Portfolios L.L.C., D. E. Shaw Oculus
    Portfolios L.L.C., Goldman Sachs Bank USA, and Goldman Sachs
    International.

The Plan Proponents and Holders say they are generally supportive
of the relief requested in the Motion, and object only to the
extent that the Debtors effectively seek to tether final
allowance of Structured Securities Claims to confirmation of
their Plan by reserving the right to nullify their own proposed
procedures -- and the results thereof -- if the Debtors' Plan is
not confirmed.

By fixing the liquidated amount of Structured Securities Claims
exclusively for voting and distribution purposes under the Plan,
the Debtors appear to be seeking to convert a necessary and
beneficial process for determining the allowed amount of certain
complex claims into a tactical option that may be exercised in
the Plan confirmation arena, the Plan Proponents and Holders
contend.  They argue that there is nothing in the Bankruptcy Code
that contemplates or permits the allowance of claims in a
particular amount if one plan is confirmed and the allowance of
the same claims in a different amount if another plan is
confirmed or if no plan is confirmed.

D. LBIE

Lehman Brothers International (Europe) joins in the the Plan
Proponents and Holders' Limited Objection to the extent that the
objection asserts that the allowed claim amounts determined in
accordance with the proposed procedures should be approved for
all purposes and not just for the purposes of voting and
distribution under the Debtors' Plan.

LBIE argues that the Debtors should not be permitted to allow
claims for the purposes of voting and distribution under their
Plan, but then object to the use of those allowed amounts for the
same purposes in plans proposed by other parties.  The Debtors'
fiduciary duties with respect to claims reconciliation apply
irrespective of which plan is confirmed, and the Debtors should
not be allowed to use the claims reconciliation process to
unfairly tilt the playing field towards their Plan, LBIE points
out.

E. State Street

State Street Bank and Trust Company objects only to the Debtors'
effort to link the process to confirmation of their proposed
Plan.

Subjecting holders of derivative claims to a process in which the
obvious and implied threat is that claim allowance will be
hostage to support of the Debtors' Plan would raise troubling
incentives, and troubling questions, Sabin Willett, Esq., at
Bingham McCutchen LLP, in Boston, Massachusetts --
sabin.willett@bingham.com -- tells the Court.

"The unfairness would be felt equally by other creditors, such as
State Street, that hold no such claims," Mr. Willett contends.
"Such creditors would be harmed by a process in which derivative
creditors were 'bought off' to support a substantive
consolidation unfair to them and to other creditors, through
being forced to the choice of capitulation, or interminable
claims litigation," he explains.

If the Debtors, the Creditors Committee, and the derivative
creditors have devised a process for resolving disputes regarding
their claims, that process should be approved, and applicable
under any plan that the Court considers or confirms, Mr. Willett
argues.  He points out that plan disputes should proceed
independently.

LEHMAN BROTHERS: Wins Approval of NY Finance Dept. Settlement
-------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge James Peck granted Lehman Brothers' request
for authority to settle and satisfy corporate franchise tax claims
of the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance.

Prior to their bankruptcy filing, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.,
as parent of the Lehman enterprise, was responsible for filing
combined New York State franchise tax returns with respect to
most Lehman entities subject to taxation in that state, and for
paying on behalf of those entities any corporate franchise taxes.

The New York State tax code provides that corporate franchise tax
liability is joint and several, allowing the New York State
Department of Taxation and Finance to seek to recover the Lehman
entities' aggregate liability from any taxpayer, including LBHI,
which was included in the combined return.

LBHI, on behalf of the Lehman entities, is currently engaged in
certain disputes with the NYSDTF regarding those entities'
liability for corporate franchise taxes for the 1992 to 2007 tax
years.

The NYSDTF has asserted that some of LBHI's affiliated debtors
have liability on account of those disputes that could exceed
$1.2 billion, and has filed proofs of claim for that amount.

If the Debtors and the NYSDTF are unable to resolve the disputes
consensually, they will be forced to litigate and given the
unsettled nature of the applicable law, the Debtors' ability to
obtain a favorable outcome is uncertain and would, in any case,
be protracted and expensive, according to the Debtors' attorney,
Richard Krasnow, Esq., at Weil Gotshal & Manges LLP, in New York.

To avoid the expense and delay of the litigation, LBHI and the
NYSDTF reached a settlement memorialized in a closing agreement
dated April 15, 2011.

The Closing Agreement requires LBHI to make a fixed payment of
$144,128,249 to the NYSDTF in full and final satisfaction of the
Lehman entities' liability for corporate franchise tax for the
1992 to 2007 tax years.  In return, NYSDTF agreed to withdraw the
proofs of claim and release the Debtors from further liability
for corporate franchise tax for that period.

A full-text copy of the Closing Agreement is available for free
at http://bankrupt.com/misc/LBHI_SettlementNYSDTF.pdf

                         *     *     *

In his order approving the settlement, Judge Peck maintained that
any objections to the request that have not been resolved or
withdrawn are disallowed.

The Court also approved the Debtors and NYSDTF's settlement
memorialized in a closing agreement dated April 15, 2011.  The
Closing Agreement requires Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. to make
a fixed payment of $144,128,249 to the NYSDTF in full and final
satisfaction of the Lehman entities' liability for corporate
franchise tax for the 1992 to 2007 tax years.  In return, NYSDTF
agreed to withdraw the proofs of claim and release the Debtors
from further liability for corporate franchise tax for that
period.

LBHI is authorized, but not directed, to perform all of its
obligations under the Closing Agreement.  LBHI will make an
equitable allocation among, and have allowed claims against,
Debtor and non-Debtor entities based on each entity's allocable
share of the Payment Amount, taking into account, among other
things, historic tax sharing principles, provided that nothing in
the Order, including the disallowance and expungement of the
Claims, will affect (i) LBHI's right or claim for reimbursement
or contribution from each member of the Combined Group of its
allocable share of the Payment Amount, or (ii) the rights of any
member, or the right of any party-in-interest, to challenge the
allocation or the priority thereof on any grounds.

Upon LBHI's filing of a certification of payment of the Payment
Amount, all claims filed by the NYSDTF, including Claims Nos.
417, 1237, 4867, 7750, 11037, 65278, 66268, 66553, 66598, 66975,
67112, 67225, and 67313, will be disallowed and expunged in their
entirety.

Prior to the entry of the Order, James W. Giddens, as trustee for
the SIPA liquidation of Lehman Brothers Inc., and the Ad Hoc
Group of Lehman Brothers Creditors filed separate statements
saying they both have no objections to the relief sought.
However, both parties were concerned about the allocation of the
liability in the amounts paid to the NYSDTF under the Closing
Agreement.

LEVELLAND/HOCKLEY: Tenaska BioFuels Bolts Out of Processing Deal
----------------------------------------------------------------
Walt Nett at Lubbock Avalanche-Journal reports that Tenaska
BioFuels has backed out of a proposed processing agreement with
Levelland's ethanol plant after a federal bankruptcy judge turned
down the plant's request to seal the draft agreement from public
view.

According to the report, GE Business Financial Services, which
represents the Levelland-Hockley County Ethanol plant's largest
secured creditor in the Chapter 11 bankruptcy case, had objected
to the request, as did the unsecured creditors committee.

Judge Robert Jones turned down the request without explanation
last month, according to the Journal.

The agreement would have been available on a non-disclosure basis
to the creditors in the case.  The plant's lawyers then withdrew
the request reserving the right to refile the request should
Tenaska change its mind, notes the Journal.

Under the deal, Tenaska would have supplied grain, natural gas and
chemicals to the plant and marketed the ethanol and distilled
grains.  The plant would have received net sales proceeds minus a
processing fee paid to Tenaska on the ethanol sales.

GE expressed concerns at the time that such a deal would prevent
the plant from being used for other purposes.

LONE TREE: 2nd Amended Plan Confirmed; July 6 Hearing Vacated
-------------------------------------------------------------
On May 27, 2011, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Arizona entered its order confirming Lone Tree Investments, LLC,
and its debtor-affiliates' second amended joint plan of
reorganization and vacating hearings set for July 6 and Sept. 12,
Sept. 13, and Sept. 14, 2011.

The treatment of the Allowed Secured Claim of Silverleaf
Acquisition Holdings, LLC, as successor-in-interest to Johnson
Bank, found in Section IV(C) beginning on page 9 of the Plan was
replaced in its entirety.

$7,000,000 ("Payment Tranche One") and all interest accrued
thereon will be due and payable on or before May 24, 2014, subject
to acceleration should certain benchmarks not be met.  Until
Payment Tranche One and all interest due thereon have been paid in
full, the net proceeds of sales of the collateral held by
Silverleaf will be paid 50% to Silverleaf and 50% to the Debtors.

After Payment Tranche One is paid in full, the net proceeds of
sales of the collateral subject to the Silverleaf deed of trust
will be paid as follows:

a. First 100% to Flagstaff Acquisitions, LLC ("FAL") in an amount
   equal to the total amount of the FAL Loan, plus interest;

b. Then, at all times when the balance of the FAL Loan is at zero,
   60% to Silverleaf and 40% to FAL until Silverleaf receives
   $10,000,000; and

c. Thereafter, all profits will be shared 50% to Silverleaf
   and 50% to FAL.

The provisions in the Second Amended Plan which provided that the
allowed claims of FAL "shall be paid in full after the Allowed
Secured claim of Silverleaf" is deleted.  The Allowed Unsecured
Claim of FAL will share in the 60%/40% split and the 50%/50% split
with Silverleaf as set forth in the previous paragraph.  Interest
will accrue and will be paid at the Plan Rate.  FAL, whose claim
in listed in the Schedules in the approximate amount of
$17,800,000, is an affiliate of the Debtors.

The section of the Plan entitled "Implementation and Funding,"
found at Section V(A) on page 17, will be replaced in its entirety
with the following:

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, FAL will be
granted a first-position lien on all property currently subject to
the lien of Silverleaf's deed of trust (except Elk Pass Unit 46)
to secure a revolving credit facility of up to $7,000,000 extended
to the Debtors (the "FAL Loan").  The lien will be evidenced by a
deed of trust in favor of FAL recorded with the Coconino County
Recorder's Office (the "FAL Deed of Trust").  The amounts
outstanding on the FAL Loan will bear interest from the
date advanced until paid at the rate of 6.86%.  The Debtors will
be able to draw on the FAL Loan to cover (a) all reasonable and
necessary operating expenses of the businesses run by the Debtors
(but not for any improvement of undeveloped parcels, vertical
product or spec homes) and (b) all payments due by Debtors under
their Confirmed Plan of Reorganization.

--------------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reports that a group of 50 disabled individuals
who participate in Nortel Networks' long-term disability plan

NANA DEVELOPMENT: S&P Assigns Preliminary 'B+' Corporate Rating
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its preliminary 'B+'
corporate credit rating to Alaska-based NANA Development Corp.
(NANA). "At the same time, we assigned a preliminary 'B+' issue-
level to the company's $435 million six-year term loan (the senior
secured credit facility also includes an unrated $85 million
asset-based lending credit facility) with a preliminary recovery
rating of '3', indicating our expectation of meaningful recovery
(50%-70%) in a default scenario. The outlook is stable," S&P said.

"The preliminary ratings on NANA reflect its aggressive financial
risk profile and its weak business risk profile, marked by its
reliance on government funding budgets, integration risks with the
proposed acquisition of Grand Isle Shipyard Inc., and the
potential for declining zinc prices," said Standard & Poor's
credit analyst Peter Kelly. "These factors are partially offset by
some diversity of its business lines, its well-established
relationships with long-term customers, and its committed royalty
income from Red Dog Mine. Currently, the operating margin, before
depreciation and amortization, in its services business is thin,
at less than 10%."

NANA is a wholly owned subsidiary and the operating company of
parent, NANA Regional Corp. (NRC). NANA operates a group of
services-based businesses in four end-market segments and had
about $1.5 billion in annual revenues for the 12 month period
ended March 31, 2011.

The outlook is stable. "We could lower the ratings if subpar
operating performance resulting from a significant number of
contracts not being renewed, or if higher-than-expected cash
outflows and/or debt financed activities adversely affect credit
measures," Mr. Kelly continued, "for example, if FFO to total debt
is 10% or less and weak operating performance from its base
business combined with lower than expected equity contributions
from NRC's mine. However, we could consider a one-notch upgrade if
NANA's credit measures improve to more than 15% FFO to total debt
and believe it will be sustained, if NANA successfully integrates
GIS and operating margins improve towards 10%, and NANA's
liquidity and financial policies support the higher rating."


NGPL PIPECO: Moody's Lowers Senior Unsecured Debt Rating to 'Ba2'
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded NGPL PipeCo LLC's (NGPL)
senior unsecured debt rating, Corporate Family Rating, and
Probability of Default Rating to Ba2 from Ba1. NGPL's Speculative
Grade Liquidity Rating is affirmed at SGL-3. The rating outlook is
stable.

These rating actions conclude a review for possible downgrade
which was initiated on April 20, 2011, due to a weaker than
previously expected outlook for NGPL's financial performance.

RATINGS RATIONALE

NGPL's lower ratings reflect Moody's view that its financial
performance is unlikely to recover to levels that was incorporated
into its previous ratings due to weak conditions in the Midwest
gas market that are unlikely to improve for several years, and the
company's high leverage that limits its financial flexibility to
respond to them.

"The decrease in NGPL's cash flow has made its credit metrics
considerably weaker than any other North American gas pipeline we
rate," says Moody's vice president Mihoko Manabe.

Moody's nevertheless assigned a stable outlook rating outlook to
NGPL, based on the expectation that company's financial results
should not get much worse, given the rate-regulated nature of the
business, the pipeline's successful operating record under Kinder
Morgan Kansas, Inc. (KMI, Ba1 sr. sec.; NGPL's 20% owner) and its
experience in selling the pipeline's capacity, and the physical
connection of the pipeline with its core utility customers which
make them more prone to renew their contracts. The stable outlook
also assumes that, given the importance of NGPL to its two owners,
the ongoing dispute between them will be resolved so as not to
impair the credit quality or the liquidity of the company. Based
on the historical receptivity of the capital markets to regulated
assets, Moody's also expects that NGPL will be able to refinance
the maturing debt and renew its credit facility over the near
term.

Moody's had previously downgraded NGPL's ratings to Ba1 in July
2010 following a rate reduction ordered by the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC). However, cash flows fell beyond the
effects of reduced rates, due to lower market-sensitive revenues
and higher than expected expenses related to pipeline integrity
spending. Its funds flow from operations-to-debt was 7.8% for the
March 2011 quarter. This ratio will likely decline further in
future quarters from the impending effects of the upcoming 15%
reduction in NGPL's fuel retention factors on June 30, 2011 and
another 2% decrease in its transportation rates on April 1, and
result in funds flow from operations-to-debt falling further below
the 8% level that Moody's had cited as one indicator for a Ba1
rating.

NGPL's funds flow from operations-to-debt and funds flow from
operations-to-interest ratios are negative outliers by a large
margin against those of its peers. The vast majority of interstate
gas pipelines that Moody's rates are investment grade. NGPL
metrics are also weaker than the only two other pipelines that
Moody's rates as Ba1 -- Midcontinent Express and Rockies Express -
- albeit they have riskier contract profiles. NGPL's metrics are
even much weaker when the debt at Myria (NGPL's majority owner)
was taken into account.

In May 2011, NGPL obtained an amendment of its credit facility
which would further ease its debt-to-EBITDA covenant limit from
6.25 times to 6.75 times. This follows an earlier amendment last
November which raised the covenant limit from 5.5 times after the
FERC rate reduction. Moody's believes that NGPL will be able to
stay in compliance at this new level, but noted that the amendment
will not be effective until the credit facility at Myria is either
repaid or refinanced in full.

NGPL faces a large refinancing in the next eighteen months or so
when $1.25 billion of notes (roughly 40% of its debt) mature in
December 2012 and the expiration soon after of its $100 million
credit facility in February 2013.

NGPL's ratings could be downgraded if the company's financial
performance continues to decline, including funds flow from
operations-to-debt sustained below 7%, or if more debt is incurred
at the parent level.

As it is currently capitalized, NGPL is unlikely to be upgraded in
the foreseeable future. Longer term, however, the company could be
upgraded if it sustains funds flow from operations-to-debt in the
8% range.

Both Myria and Kinder Morgan have a substantial amount of debt ,
which places upstream dividend pressure on NGPL. A
recapitalization that significantly reduces leverage at both NGPL
and Myria could result in an upgrade.

The last rating action for NGPL was on April 20, 2011, when
Moody's placed the company's Ba1 Corporate Family, senior
unsecured debt, and Probability of Default Ratings under review
for possible downgrade and affirmed its Speculative Grade
Liquidity Rating at SGL-3

The principal methodology used in these ratings were Moody's
Natural Gas Pipeline Rating Methodology, published in December
2009 and Loss Given Default for Speculative-Grade Non-Financial
Companies in the U.S., Canada and EMEA published June 2009.

NGPL PipeCo LLC is a holding company for Natural Gas Pipeline
Company of America and other interstate natural gas pipeline
assets. NGPL is 80% owned by Myria Acquisition LLC and 20% owned
and operated by Kinder Morgan, Inc., based in Houston Texas.


NORTHCORE TECHNOLOGIES: Posts C$574,000 Net Loss in Q1 2011
-----------------------------------------------------------

financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011.

loss of $713,000.

Northcore reported consolidated revenues of C$183,000 for the

financing to fund operations."

NURSERYMEN'S EXCHANGE: Committee Questions Expedited Asset Sale
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors expressed concern
over the extremely short timeline proposed by Nurserymen's
Exchange, Inc., to sell its assets.  The Committee said it needs
additional information before it can determine whether the Debtor
has established a genuine need to conduct the sale on such an
expedited basis.  The Committee wants to ensure that the sale is
conducted in a way that will maximize the value of the assets and
the return to the estate, rather than simply providing for quick
repayment of the secured debt.

The Debtor intends to sell its operating business within 60 days
of the Petition Date.  Under the Debtor's proposed bid procedures,
bids will be due on July 8, 2011, the auction will occur July 13,
2011, and the sale hearing will occur July 15.

The Debtor has acknowledged its case is proceeding on a fast
track.

The Committee was appointed on May 27.  The Committee's proposed
counsel, Landau Gottfried & Berger LLP, was selected May 31, and
held its first conference with the Committee on June 1.

The Committee told the Court it is essential that whatever bid
procedure may be approved includes provision for real
participation by the Committee, as representatives of the general
creditors.

The Committee further said the Debtor's Sale Motion lacks certain
vital information necessary for a meaningful assessment of the
proposed sale:

     -- the Sale Motion fails to identify with any specificity
        the assets that will be sold.

     -- although the Sale Motion also seeks approval of the
        assumption and assignment of leases and contracts, and the
        draft asset purchase agreement references an obligation to
        enter into certain leases (including a lease with the
        owners of the Debtor), the Sale Motion fails even to list
        the Debtor's leases and contracts.  This information is
        also conspicuously absent from the Debtor's petition,
        which was filed with a blank Schedule G.  The Debtor must
        provide substantially more information for the Committee
        and other interested parties to determine whether a sale
        is feasible and whether the proposed procedures are
        appropriate and in the best interests of the estate.

The Debtor seeks to sell its operating business and substantially
all assets.  The Operating Assets include:

     (i) the Debtor's intellectual, real and personal property
         -- including inventory and accounts receivable --
         licenses and leasehold interests in its operating
         business, including the greenhouses, warehouses and other
         agricultural facilities for the growing of flowering
         plants and foliage for indoor d‚cor, sales and marketing,
         and decorative packing and shipping, located at 2651
         North Cabrillo Highway, Half Moon Bay, California 94109;

    (ii) the Debtor's wholesale center facility for sale of
         flowering plants, foliage and hard goods to wholesalers
         and certain other commercial customers;

   (iii) the Debtor's plant brokerage business also located at
         2651 North Cabrillo Highway, Half Moon Bay, California
         94109; and

    (iv) the assumption of certain of the Debtor's accounts
         payables to vendors, licensors and other suppliers
         critical to the ongoing operation of the Debtor's
         business.

The Debtor and its professionals have been marketing the Operating
Assets since September 2010, and their sustained efforts have
generated significant interest in the marketplace from many
strategic and financial potential buyers.  To date, about 48
operational, strategic and financial buyers have executed
nondisclosure agreements in connection with the potential purchase
of the Operating Assets.  The Debtor said the Sale Procedures
contain the needed flexibility to maximize the sale value of the
Operating Assets.

Before filing for bankruptcy, the Debtor executed a Letter of
Intent with a buyer that provided for a period of exclusivity, and
the Debtor began engaging in extensive business and legal due
diligence.  Unfortunately, the Debtor was not able to finalize an
asset purchase agreement with the interested party prior to filing
the bankruptcy and exclusivity was terminated on May 11, 2011.
Upon termination of exclusivity, FocalPoint Securities LLC, the
Debtor's financial advisors, immediately began re-marketing the
Operating Assets and have begun conducting discussions with
potential strategic and financial investors since that time.

The Court will hold a hearing on June 9 in the bankruptcy case.

NURSERYMEN'S EXCHANGE: Committee Needs Time to Review DIP Loan
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors told the Court it
needs additional time and information to analyze the
appropriateness of the DIP financing Nurserymen's Exchange, Inc.,
seeks to obtain from Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.  The Committee said
the Debtor has only recently provided a budget in support of the
financing request, but the budget contains meager information with
no explanation or support.  The Committee has requested extensive
additional information from the Debtor, and the Debtor has agreed
to begin providing documents to the Committee upon execution of a
confidentiality agreement.  Because the terms of the DIP financing
require a number of commitments from the Debtor regarding the sale
process, resolution of the issues identified with the Sale Motion
will also be critical to the Committee's evaluation of the DIP
Financing Motion.

Wells Fargo has agreed to provide the Debtor a senior secured
super-priority revolving loan in the maximum principal amount of
$5,000,000 for working capital purposes and to facilitate the
issuance of letters of credit pending the consummation of the
planned sale of the Debtor's assets and repayment of the Debtor's
prepetition debt to Wells Fargo.

On May 26, 2011, the Court granted the Debtor interim authority to
borrow from Wells Fargo, as well as use Wells Fargo's Cash
Collateral and grant adequate protection.

Wells Fargo and the Debtor are parties to a Credit and Security
Agreement dated as of Aug. 15, 2008,.  The prepetition secured
debt is secured by liens on virtually all of the Debtor's real and
personal property assets.  The principal amount of the debt was
$15,490,150 as of the Petition Date, plus interest.  In addition,
the Debtor is contingently liable to Wells Fargo on a posted
letter of credit in the amount of $915,000, which liability is
secured by the Prepetition Collateral.

Pursuant to the Credit and Security Agreement dated May 23, 2011,
between Nurserymen's Exchange and Wells Fargo, the DIP loan will
automatically terminate on the earliest to occur of: (i) 30 days
after the Petition Date if a Final Order on terms acceptable to
Wells Fargo is not entered by the date; (ii) Aug. 5, 2011 -- or
the later date as the parties may agree; (iii) the effective date
of a plan of reorganization; (iv) the closing of the sale to a Bay
Area buyer of land not used in the operation of the Debtor's
business for $8,000,000 -- PUD Sale -- or the Operating Asset Sale
the proceeds of which will satisfy the Secured Debt in full; and
(v) an Event of Default as that term is defined in the DIP
Agreement.

Under the DIP Agreement, the Debtor covenants with the Lender to
achieve net sales/revenue, on a cumulative basis, of not less than
the amount set forth for each period:

     Period From May 21, 2011      Minimum Cumulative
     Through and Including         Net Sales/Revenue
     ------------------------      ------------------
          06/03/2011                     $500,000
          06/10/2011                   $1,000,000
          06/17/2011                   $1,400,000
          06/24/2011                   $2,100,000
          07/01/2011                   $2,400,000
          07/08/2011                   $2,700,000
          07/15/2011                   $3,000,000
          07/22/2011                   $4,000,000
          07/29/2011                   $4,400,000

The Debtor also agree not to make any expenditures, on a
cumulative basis, of more than the amount set forth for each
period:

     Period From May 21, 2011        Maximum Total
     Through and Including           Disbursements
     ------------------------        -------------
          06/03/2011                   $2,845,000
          06/10/2011                   $3,489,000
          06/17/2011                   $4,247,000
          06/24/2011                   $4,849,000
          07/01/2011                   $6,143,000
          07/08/2011                   $6,772,000
          07/15/2011                   $7,348,000
          07/22/2011                   $7,725,000

NURSERYMEN'S EXCHANGE: Hires Omni Management as Claims Agent
------------------------------------------------------------
Nurserymen's Exchange, Inc., is seeking Court approval to employ
Omni Management Group, LLC, as claims administrator and noticing
agent.

The Debtor has roughly 625 creditors and parties in interest.  The
Debtor said noticing those creditors and other parties in interest
involved in its chapter 11 case would impose heavy administrative
and other burdens on the Bankruptcy Court and the Office of the
Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court.  To relieve the Clerk's Office of
these burdens, the Debtor seeks an order appointing Omni as the
claims administrator and noticing agent.

Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtor deposited $5,000 with Omni
as a retainer.

Brian K. Osborne, a member of Omni, will be primarily responsible
for the engagement.  He attests that Omni is a disinterested
person and does not hold or represent an interest adverse to the
estate, and does not have any connection with the Debtor, the
creditors, or any other party in interest in these cases, or their
attorneys or accountants, and is not related or connected to any
United States Bankruptcy Judge or district Judge for the Northern
District of California or the United States Trustee for Region 17.

OCEAN PARK: Plan of Reorganization Declared Effective
-----------------------------------------------------
Ocean Park Hotels - TOY LLC and Ocean Park Hotels - TOP, LLC,
notified the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of
California that the effective date of their First Amended Joint
Plan of Reorganization occurred on April 29, 2011.

On March 21, the Court confirmed the Plan dated Dec. 15, 2010.
The Court entered an order approving the disclosure statement
explaining the Debtors' Chapter 11 Plan on Dec. 13, 2010.

The Court held that the Plan complies with all of the requirements
set forth in Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code; and all
objections to confirmation of the Plan or to the adequacy of the
Disclosure Statement, including the Plan Objections, whether
formal or informal, written or oral, unless previously withdrawn,
are overruled.

To address limited objections to the Confirmation of the Plan
relating to contract/lease assumption or cure matters filed by
U.S. TelePacific Corp. and Marriott International, Inc., the Court
ruled that:

   (a) Effective as of the effective date of the Plan, the
       Debtors will assume their agreements with U.S. TelePacific
       Corp.  TelePacific's prepetition claim against Ocean Park
       Hotels-TOY for $1,620 will be paid on or as soon as
       practicable after the Effective Date.  TelePacific waives
       the right to require payment on the Effective Date of
       other amounts, if any, that may be due under Section
       1129(a)(9)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code.  The Debtors and
       Telepacific will use reasonable efforts to reach agreement
       as to the amount, if any, of administrative claims owed to
       TelePacific by Ocean Park Hotels-TOY, and the amounts, if
       any, of prepetition and administrative claims owed by TOP
       to TelePacific to cure defaults pursuant to Section
       365(b)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code.  The Court will
       retain jurisdiction to determine the Cure Amounts in the
       event no consensual resolution is reached between the
       Debtors and TelePacific.  The Debtors and TelePacific each
       expressly reserve all rights with respect to the
       determination of the Cure Amounts.

   (b) The Debtors will assume their franchise agreements with
       Marriott in accordance with the terms of a supplement to
       the Amended Plan filed with the Court.

ORDWAY RESEARCH: Reports 50% Drop in Income From Grants & Deals
---------------------------------------------------------------
Eric Anderson at Times Union reports that bankruptcy court filings
showed that Ordway Research Institute's income from grants,
contracts and other sources dropped by more than half during the
past three years, to $6.8 million in the first 11 months of fiscal
2011 from $17.6 million in fiscal 2009.

According to Times Union, the court filings showed that Ordway
owes the Center for Medical Science $4.73 million, although two
payments last year totaling $2.29 million settled its debt to the
Charitable Leadership Foundation.

According to the report, it's not clear whether Ordway will
reorganize and continue or wind down operations.

Albany, New York-based Ordway Research Institute, Inc., was formed
in 2002 to facilitate inter-institutional and interdisciplinary
collaborations in basic and translational biomedical research in
New York's Capital District.  Ordway's research is focused on drug
development in cancer, emerging infections and signal
transduction/ endocrinology.

The Debtor filed for Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case
No. 11-11322) on April 28, 2011.  Bankruptcy Judge Robert E.
Littlefield, Jr., presides over the case.  Gregory J. Mascitti,

effort.  JC Jones & Associates serves as its financial and
restructuring advisors.  As of April 26, 2011, Ordway had roughly
$12,158,202 in assets and $17,108,847 in liabilities.


PALM HARBOR: Wants to Obtain Regulatory Approval on Assets Sale
---------------------------------------------------------------
Palm Harbor Homes, Inc., et al., ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the District of Delaware to extend their exclusive periods to file
and solicit acceptances for the proposed chapter 11 plan until
July 28, 2011, and Sept. 27, respectively.

The Debtors filed their request for an extension before the
exclusive periods was set to expire on May 27.

The Debtors relate that they need additional time to formulate a
plan because they and purchaser Palm Harbor Homes, Inc., are still
awaiting the regulatory approval from the Texas Insurance Agency,
Inc.

on April 23, the Debtors closed all aspects of the sale although
the closing of Standard Casualty Co., Standard Insurance Agency,
Inc. and Palm Harbor Insurance Agency, Inc., was made into an
escrow, pending regulatory approval.

                      About Palm Harbor Homes

Inc., a venture between Cavco Industries Inc. and a fund advised
by Third Avenue Management LLC.  Fleetwood is providing up to
$55 million in secured financing for Palm Harbor's reorganization.

As reported in the TCR on May 16, 2011, Cavco Industries and
Fleetwood Homes filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware a motion for an order enforcing and ordering
Palm Harbor Homes to perform its obligations under the Court-
approved amended and restated asset purchase agreement and to pay
administrative expenses.

According to Cavco and Fleetwood, the Debtors ceased paying former
employees' sales commissions and profit-sharing bonuses prior to
the closing date when the individuals were still employees of the
Debtors.

PETRA FUND: Disclosure Statement Hearing Set for June 14
--------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York
adjourned the hearing until June 14, 2011, at 11:00 a.m., to
consider approval of the disclosure statement explaining the
Chapter 11 plan of reorganization of Petra Fund REIT Corp. and its
debtor-affiliates.

Pursuant to the Plan, administrative claims totaling $1,000,000
and priority tax claims totaling $750,000 will be paid in full.
RBS and JPMorgan will receive no cash, and instead, will receive a
new secured debt instrument in exchange of their secured claims.
General unsecured claims totaling $1,5000,000 will (i) receive
from the liquidation trust a pro rata share of the distributable
assets in a pro rata amount equal 100% of the holders' allowed
general unsecured claims, or (ii) absent a liquidation trust, a
pro rata share of the remaining assets after payment of higher
ranked claims.  Holders of interests in REIT and Offshore won't
receive anything.

The Debtors said they have had extensive discussions with James A.
Goodman, former bankruptcy judge for the District of Maine, for
the position of liquidation trustee.

The Debtors said that post-confirmation, they will be selling
these assets for an aggregate $100,000: equity interests in Petra
Fund Master REIT Corp and Petra Fund Holdings LLC, loan
participations in Detwiler and Fort Tryon, and equity interests in
PFRC Sub, LLC, and Petra Offshore TRS L.P.

A full-text copy of the Disclosure Statement is available for free

                         About Petra Fund

Petra Fund REIT Corp. and its affiliates are in the business of
originating, investing in, structuring and trading loans secured
by commercial real-estate.  Petra Offshore Fund LP is the parent.

Petra Fund and Petra Offshore sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. Lead Case No. 10-15500) on Oct. 20, 2010, and are
represented by Shaya M. Berger, Esq., and Brian E. Goldberg, Esq.,
at Dickstein Shapiro, LLP.  At the time of the filing, each of the
Debtor estimated its assets at less than $10 million and its debts
at more than $100 million.

Petra Fund blamed its Chapter 11 filing on the extraordinary and
unprecedented collapse of the credit and commercial real estate
markets, which caused a mark-to-market value of its assets to
plummet.


PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA: Has Until June 15 to File Schedules

The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania

PILGRIM'S PRIDE: Moody's Affirms CCR at 'B1'; Outlook Stable
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service revised Pilgrim's Pride Corporation's
outlook to stable from positive and downgraded the speculative
grade liquidity rating to SGL-3 from SGL-2 given Moody's
expectations for much reduced profitability, cash flow and
covenant cushion following worse than anticipated chicken pricing.
All other ratings including the B1 corporate family rating were
affirmed.

This rating was downgraded:

   -- Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating to SGL-3 from SGL-2;

These ratings were affirmed:

   -- Corporate Family Rating at B1;

   -- Probability of Default Rating at B1;

   -- $500 million Senior secured notes at B3 (LGD5, 88%); (LGD
      assessment revised)

The outlook is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The change in outlook to stable from positive reflects Moody's
view that the company will face challenges this year that will
limit its ability to de-lever. Since the summer of 2010, global
chicken prices have deteriorated, particularly breast meat and
wings, and have yet to recover. Pilgrim's had favorably priced
grains (animal feed) only through year end 2010. Moreover, while
chicken pricing remains weak, grain prices have been relatively
strong as well as volatile. As a result, Pilgrim's reported
negative EBITDA for the first quarter of 2011 and profitability is
likely to remain under pressure for the remainder of the year
although pricing should improve somewhat. Importantly, the stable
outlook also reflects the benefits associated with its majority
ownership by JBS S.A. (B1 CFR, positive outlook).

The downgrade of the speculative grade liquidity rating to SGL-3
from SGL-2 reflects Moody's expectations for limited free cash
flow over the next 12 to 15 months, increased drawdown on the
revolver and concerns regarding covenant compliance in the fourth
quarter of 2011. Should chicken prices remain at current levels
for the second half of the year, Moody's believes amended
covenants could be required. Today's LTM EBITDA provided
sufficient cushion for Q1 compliance, but as stronger quarters
roll off, covenant cushion will diminish. Currently Moody's
believes Pilgrim's should have sufficient revolver availability to
manage all of its capital needs. Additionally, the company is
likely to scale back capital expenditures given its diminished
liquidity.

Pilgrim's B1 corporate family rating reflects the company's
increasing leverage and weak free cash flow generation given the
challenging environment for chicken producers. The rating also
considers Pilgrim's concentration in one highly competitive,
global commodity, poultry, which despite sizable concentration
among large players continues to experience periods of oversupply.
In addition, cash flow volatility is exacerbated by feed costs
which consume about one third of the company's expenses. The
rating also incorporates Moody's concern that the current
environment could deteriorate further before improving. The
company is vulnerable to the longstanding risks endemic to the
industry including animal disease, weather patterns, trade
disputes and regulation.

Alternatively, the rating is supported by JBS S.A.'s ownership
stake (about 67%) in Pilgrim's. As the largest protein company in
the world with sales and operations in all three proteins across
the globe, Pilgrim's benefits from its relationship with its
majority shareholder, including opportunities for substantial cost
savings following its integration with JBS USA's distribution and
sales organization. Moreover, Moody's anticipates some revenue and
earnings expansion going forward through better access to global
markets as a consequence of this relationship.

Given the ongoing cyclicality within the commodity chicken market,
the B1 rating incorporates a wider range of operating performance.
At the top of the cycle, Moody's expects very modest leverage
relative to the rating category, and, at the bottom, the converse.
Importantly, when leverage is precipitously high, it should be
balanced by adequate access to capital.

The rating would likely be lowered if the dynamics of the industry
do not improve and Moody's became concerned that leverage was
likely to be sustained above 4 times or if access to liquidity
became a concern.

An upgrade could be considered should the company de-lever to
about 2 times debt-to-EBITDA (including Moody's standard
adjustments). In Moody's view, a Ba3 rating would be supported by
leverage that remains closer to the 3 times debt-to-EBITDA range
and a liquidity profile that is solid.

The principal methodology used in rating Pilgrim's Pride
Corporation was the Global Food - Protein and Agriculture Industry
Methodology, published September 2009. Other methodologies used
include Loss Given Default for Speculative Grade Issuers in the
US, Canada, and EMEA, published June 2009.

Headquartered in Greeley, Colorado, Pilgrim's Pride Corporation is
the second largest chicken producer in the world, with operations
in the United States, Mexico and Puerto Rico. The company
produces, processes, markets and distributes chicken to
foodservice, distributors and retail operators worldwide. For the
twelve months ended March 31, 2011, revenues for the company were
approximately $7.1 billion. JBS, S.A. has a 67% ownership stake in
Pilgrim's Pride.

QUADRA FNX: Moody's Assigns 'B1' Corporate Family Rating
--------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned first-time ratings to Quadra
FNX Mining Ltd., including a corporate family rating of B1, a
probability of default rating of B1, and a B1 rating to the
company's proposed $500 million of guaranteed senior unsecured
notes. At the same time, Moody's assigned a speculative grade
liquidity rating of SGL-1. The outlook is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Quadra's B1 corporate family rating reflects its limited diversity
and modest size, as well as the relatively short reserve life of
the existing mines. In addition the rating considers the material
dependence on one mine for a significant portion of the company's
copper production as well as EBITDA, high cost production profile
at a number of the company's mines, and the geologic complexity
and mineral variation at the Robinson mine, the key revenue and
earnings contributor. However, the rating acknowledges the
company's modest leverage pro forma for the debt issue, and
substantive cash position, which will support its substantive
capital investments over the next few years, particularly the
development of the Sierra Gorda copper project in Chile in a joint
venture with Sumitomo, as the company looks to achieve its
strategic growth objectives. This position will accommodate
possible negative free cash flow generation at copper prices lower
than current robust levels, which price correction Moody's sees as
likely over the next 12 to 15 months. Notwithstanding the
reasonable leverage position and solid liquidity, the operating
risks, short lived production profile at currently operating
mines, and higher cost position are key rating drivers

The company's SGL-1 rating reflects its strong liquidity position.
Pro forma for the debt issuance Quadra will have approximately
$1.1 billion of cash (based upon March 31, 2011 cash position) and
liquidity is expected to be sufficient to support requirements
over the next twelve to fifteen months, including capital
expenditures. Capital expenditures over the next several years
include approximately $656 million for the Sierra Gorda project.
Moody's notes that the company does not have a revolving credit
facility. The company does not currently pay dividends.

The senior unsecured notes are rated at the same level as the
corporate family rating (B1) as there is no other debt in the
capital structure and no material liabilities that would rank
ahead of the notes.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that market
conditions and prices for copper over the next twelve to fifteen
months will remain favorable and provide for a reasonable level of
cash generation to support the substantive capital expenditures
over this time frame. The outlook also anticipates that the
company will continue to maintain discipline with respect to the
use of debt in its capital structure and adjust or slow capital
spending should market conditions deteriorate.

Going forward, the ratings could be lowered if Quadra experiences
any significant operational difficulties, particularly at the
Robinson mine, capital requirements for Sierra Gorda increase more
than is currently anticipated, or if the liquidity position
deteriorates significantly. In addition, should free cash
flow/debt be less than 5% on a sustainable basis, downward
pressure could arise. Upward rating pressure is limited at this
time due to the significant capital expenditures required over the
next several years, together with the need to increase the
production profile and production life as well as achieve lower
overall costs, which depends upon the Sierra Gorda project being
successfully developed.

Assignments:

   Issuer: Quadra FNX Mining Ltd.

   -- Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, Assigned SGL-1

   -- Corporate Family Rating, Assigned B1

   -- Probability of Default Rating, Assigned B1

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Assigned B1, LGD 4,
      52%

The principal methodology used in rating Quadra FNX was the Global
Mining Industry Methodology, published May 2009. Other
methodologies used include Loss Given Default for Speculative
Grade Issuers in the US, Canada, and EMEA, published June 2009.

Quadra FNX Mining Ltd. engages in the development and production
of mineral properties primarily in Canada, the United States, and
Chile. The principal metal produced is copper, but other metals
such as nickel, gold, and platinum group metals are produced in
conjunction. Quadra was formed as a result of the May 2010 merger
of Quadra Mining Ltd. and FNX Mining Company Inc. Revenues of
approximately $958 million in 2010 do not include a full year of
FNX Mining.


QUADRA FNX: S&P Gives 'B+' Corp. Credit Rating; Outlook is Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'B+' long-term
corporate credit rating and stable outlook to Vancouver-based
copper producer Quadra FNX Mining Ltd.

At the same time, Standard & Poor's assigned its 'BB-' issue-level
rating and '2' recovery rating to Quadra's $500 million senior
unsecured notes. "A '2' recovery rating indicates our expectation
of substantial (70%-90%) recovery in a default scenario. Proceeds
from the unsecured notes issuance will be held as cash, and
gradually used to fund the development of the company's Sierra
Gorda  mining project in Chile," S&P related.

"The ratings on Quadra reflect what we view as the company's weak
business risk profile highlighted by its high cost profile,
volatile copper prices, large growth capital expenditure, and
short reserve lives at some of its mines," said Standard & Poor's
credit analyst Donald Marleau. "Counterbalancing these factors, in
our opinion, are Quadra's modest debt leverage amid record high
copper prices and improving operating diversity in attractive
mining jurisdictions," Mr. Marleau added.

Quadra FNX operates six copper mines in the U.S., Canada, and
Chile, and holds interests in various advanced development
projects that include the Sierra Gorda mine.

Standard & Poor's considers Quadra's business risk profile as weak
due to the company's high cost profile and limited diversity, as
well as its reliance on historically strong copper prices to
finance its improving breadth of assets and potentially lower its
cash production costs. Despite adding several mines with its 2010
all-stock merger with FNX Mining Co. Inc., Quadra remains highly
reliant on the Robinson mine in Nevada for nearly half of its
copper production. Moreover, Robinson has inconsistent ore grades
and unpredictable mineralogy that expose it to short-term
variability in production and costs. "We believe that the
development of the Sierra Gorda project could improve our
assessment of Quadra's business risk profile upon its completion
in 2014, given the expectation of added diversity, lower cash
costs, and a longer aggregate reserve life," S&P stated.

S&P continued, "The stable outlook reflects our view that Quadra's
credit measures should remain strong for the rating at current
copper prices, and that liquidity should remain adequate through a
multiyear period of large growth-oriented capital spending. That
said, we expect that pressure on the rating would emerge if copper
prices dropped below US$3.00 per pound, or about 30% lower than
current prices and consistent with Standard & Poor's base-case
prices for 2013 and 2014. We believe that Quadra's financial risk
profile could deteriorate rapidly, with leverage escalating beyond
4x in such a scenario, likely weakening its liquidity position but
leaving adequate cash to complete the construction of Sierra Gorda
if capital costs remain stable. A positive rating action is
unlikely during the initial development of Sierra Gorda."

SCANWOOD CANADA: Union to Continue Representing Workers
-------------------------------------------------------
Bill Power at The Chronicle-Herald reports that the union
representing former Scanwood Canada Ltd. workers in Dartmouth will
pursue succession rights if a new operator purchases the plant and
resumes making furniture there.

"The collective agreement will still apply if a new owner brings
in a majority of previous workers," the Chronicle-Herald quotes
Carla Bryden, a national representative with the union, as saying.

According to the report, Ms. Bryden said the union is organizing a
meeting with some of the 220 workers from the plant in order to
gauge their response to a letter received last week from Scanwood
director Bo Thorn.

The Chronicle-Herald relates that Mr. Thorn wants wage and
scheduling concessions should he reclaim the operation through the
liquidation process.  Workers rejected a similar proposal from
Scanwood just before the plant closed.

"We are obliged to present the proposal to the members but want to
stress wages and benefits had absolutely nothing to do with the
failure of that business," Mr. Bryden said, according to The
Chronicle-Herald.

The request for concessions will be presented to the workers
within the next couple of weeks, the report notes.

The Chronicle-Herald reports that a liquidation sale of the plant
is being organized by Green Hunt Wedlake Inc., the court-appointed
receiver of the 220,000-square-foot furniture manufacturing
facility.  The deadline for submissions is on July 22.

Receiver spokesman Robert Hunt has said there have been three
serious inquiries about purchasing the plant.

Meanwhile, The Chronicle-Herald reports that the Nova Scotia
Supreme Court has ruled that some critical equipment, worth about
$1.1 million, could not be removed from the plant by Homag Canada
Inc. prior to the liquidation sale.

Scanwood Canada Ltd. ceased operations and went into receivership
in April, owing creditors about $24 million.

Scanwood Canada is a supplier of cabinets to Swedish retailer
Ikea.  It has 248 employees at its Burnside Industrial Park plant
in Dartmouth.  The four major creditors are RBC Royal Bank, the
Province of Nova Scotia, Ikea and the Business Development Bank of

Debtor's bankruptcy counsel.  The Debtor estimated its assets at
$10 million to $50 million and debts at $1 million to $10 million.


SIGNATURE STYLES: Spiegel Owner Files for Chapter 11 to Sell
------------------------------------------------------------
Signature Styles LLC, owner of the Spiegel catalog, filed a
Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. D. Del. Case No. 11-11733) on June 6,
along with a deal to sell the business to affiliates of the
current owners and lenders.

New York-based Signature Styles, which filed for bankruptcy
together with its affiliates, disclosed assets of $48.6 million
and debt of $867.6 million.  It purchased the Spiegel business for
$21.7 million at a foreclosure sale in June 2009.  Debt includes
$37.2 million owing on a secured term loan and revolving credit.
Unsecured debt totals $35.3 million, which include $9.8 million
owing to trade suppliers and $23.2 million in customer
obligations.  The lenders and owners are funds affiliated with
Patriarch Partners LLC.

Robert Angart, chief restructuring officer, says the Spiegel brand
has lived through many different incranations since its Civil war-
era.  Founded in Chicago, the Debtors are now a catalog and
Internet specialty retailer.  Internet purchases account for 75%
of total sales.  The Debtors have three primary brands: Spiegel,
Newport News, and Shape Fx.

Mr. Angart said, "As a result of the overall decline in the retail
market during the past several years, the Debtors experienced a
reduction in sales and lower than expected revenues.  The Debtors
believe that, while their products remain competitive in the
market, they need to restructure their business operations to
align the company's costs with current retail consumer demand and
significantly reduce their liabilities.

For fiscal 2010, Signature Styles had net sales of $119.9 million
resulted in a $25.6 million operating loss and a $31.1 million net
loss. Spiegel is responsible for 75 percent of revenue.

The Spiegel business has been in Chapter 11 before.  Then named
Spiegel Inc., it filed under Chapter 11 in March 2003, sold other
businesses during reorganization, and retained 440 Eddie Bauer
stores when purchase offers didn't seem adequate.

         Patriarch Deal Subject to Competitive Bidding

Prepetition, the Debtors tapped the services of Western Reserve
Partners LLC, a Cleveland based investment banking firm, to assist
in the market of the assets.

The Debtors have signed a deal to sell their assets to Artemiss,
LLC, an acquisition entity formed by an affiliate of New York-
based Patriarch, in return for the assumption of specified debt,
including $30 million owing on the term loan and revolving credit.
The buyer will also honor some customer obligations.

Patriarch will provide up to $7 million in DIP financing --
consisting of a senior revolving credit facility -- for the
Chapter 11 case provided that the Debtors pursue an expedited 11
U.S.C. Sec. 363 sale process as contemplated in their stalking-
horse agreement.  The DIP financing will mature Aug. 15, 2011.

The deal is subject to higher and better offers at a bankruptcy
court sanctioned auction.  The stalking-horse purchase agreement
requires approval of bidding procedures by July 7 and approval of
a sale by Aug. 4.  The Debtors expect to consummate the sale
within 60 days from the Petition Date.

The Debtors said the sale to Patriarch will result in a
continuation of the Debtors' business and preserve more than 100
jobs.

Each Former Officer seeks advancement, reimbursement,
indemnification and contribution from the Debtors for, among
other things, any costs or liability that may be incurred in
defending the Lawsuits.

The deadline for filing proofs of claim expired on June 12, 2009.
The Lawsuits were filed between November and December 2010.

Anthony M. Saccullo, Esq., at A.M. Saccullo Legal, LLC, in Bear,
Delaware, -- ams@saccullolegal.com -- relates that the Officers
did not file the Proofs of Claim prior to the Bar Date because
they did not believe they had any indemnification claim against
any Debtor and did not anticipate that they would be sued based
on their service as officers/directors of any Debtor.  However,
the Officers believe the Debtors' indemnification obligations
remained in force despite the Debtors' filing for bankruptcy,
according to Mr. Saccullo.  More importantly, the delay in filing
of the Proofs of Claim is a function of the timing of the filing
of the Lawsuits, Mr. Saccullo stresses.  The Committee's delay in
suing the Officers was not within their reasonable control, and
the Former Officers had no reason to believe that they would be
sued, Mr. Saccullo insists.  Mr. Saccullo assures the Court that
deeming the Proofs of Claim timely would not open the floodgates
because the number of former officers and directors for whom the
relief would also be appropriate is limited in size.

                       Committee Objects

Counsel to the Committee, Adam G. Landis, Esq., at Landis Rath &
Cobb LLP, in Wilmington, Delaware, argues that the Officers
failed to explain why a delay of six months after the Lawsuits
were filed is excusable.  If it was odd for Tom E. Ehlmann, et
al., to wait five months from the filing of the Lawsuits to press
their claims for indemnification, then it is odder still that the
Officers led by Mr. Knight have waited an additional month to
seek the same relief, Mr. Landis asserts.

However, the Creditors' Committee says it appreciates that the
Court may find that the distinctions between the current motions
and the similar motions previously filed by Mr. Ehlmann, et al.
If the Court is inclined to grant the Officers' Motions, the
Committee asks that the Court establish a unified procedure for
addressing the underlying claims in a systematic and cost-
effective matter.

                 Court Deems Claims Timely

In separate orders, Judge Carey deems the claims filed by the
Officers to have been filed prior to the Bar Date.

Judge Carey further ruled that Mr. Knight may file one or more
proofs of claim on or within 14 days after the entry of this
order.  Any proof of claim will be deemed to have been filed
prior to the Bar Date.

SPECTRA ENERGY: Moody's Rates Shelf Registration at '(P)Ba1'
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has assigned first-time ratings of Baa3
to Spectra Energy Partners, LP's (SEP) $500 million of proposed
senior unsecured notes, and (P)Baa3 senior unsecured and (P)Ba1
subordinated ratings to its shelf registration. The rating outlook
is stable.

Assignments:

   Issuer: Spectra Energy Partners, LP

   -- Multiple Seniority Shelf, Assigned (P)Baa3/(P)Ba1

   -- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Assigned Baa3

RATINGS RATIONALE

"SEP's Baa3 rating is based much on the support and
creditworthiness of its general partner Spectra Energy Corp (SE)
for which SEP is a strategic financing vehicle, as well as the
stability of its rate-regulated natural gas transmission and
storage assets," says Moody's vice president Mihoko Manabe.

SEP is soundly capitalized, though its debt is structurally
subordinated to a material amount of debt at its pipeline
subsidiaries. While Moody's foresees no near-term downward
pressure on SEP's rating, the rating agency assesses SEP to be
weaker relative to other investment grade MLPs in terms of SEP's
still modest scale of operations, which reflects a still early
stage in its development as a public entity. This rating is also
constrained by the credit risks associated with the master limited
partnership (MLP) corporate finance model.

Through its subsidiaries, SEP is engaged principally in interstate
natural gas transportation and storage activities which are
regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. SEP owns
100% of East Tennessee Natural Gas pipeline with its ancillary
Saltville Gas Storage facility, Ozark Gas Transmission and Ozark
Gas Gathering. It also holds equity investments in Gulfstream
Natural Gas System, LLC (Baa2 senior unsecured, 49% owned by SEP,
1% owned by SE, 49% owned by Williams Partners L.P. and 1%
directly by The Williams Companies, Inc.) and Market Hub Partners
(not rated, 50% owned by SEP, 50% owned by SE).

Being rate-regulated, SEP is more stable than many other MLPs that
rely on gas processing, marketing, or other such commodity-price
and volume-sensitive businesses. Moody's has assessed SEP's
business risk as low, based on the durable performance, in
particular, of its pipeline affiliates East Tennessee, Gulfstream,
and Saltville mitigated by the significant re-contracting risk at
Ozark and Market Hub Partners (combined almost 30% of adjusted
revenues).

The Baa3 rating strongly factors in the support and
creditworthiness of its sponsor SE, a sizable pipeline operator
with significant financial resources (its guaranteed senior
unsecured obligations at financing subsidiary Spectra Energy
Capital, LLC rated Baa2), which has to-date nurtured SEP's early
years with a strong balance sheet. Not only is SEP roughly 70%
owned by SE, but SEP is also a strategic subsidiary of SE as an
alternative financing vehicle and a principal source of raising
equity capital in the foreseeable future.

Moody's expects SE to implement a long-term strategy to grow SEP
through a combination of third-party acquisitions (such as the
recently announced $390 million acquisition of the Big Sandy
Pipeline), dropdowns, and modest ongoing organic projects. This
expected close relationship could cause SEP's ratings to go up or
down in the direction of SE's ratings.

Moody's notes that the SEP debt is structurally subordinated to
significant amounts of subsidiary debt, including $1,149 million
of off-balance sheet debt at its Gulfstream equity investment.
Moody's believes that proportionally consolidating the Gulfstream
and Market Hub Partners equity investments provides a fuller view
of the leverage within the SEP organization than on a strictly
equity accounting basis. Thus adjusting for proportional
consolidation, EBITDA/interest is 5.5 times and Debt/EBITDA is 4.3
times for the last twelve months ended March 2011.

The stable outlook indicates Moody's view that SEP's rating is
unlikely to change over the next 12 to 18 months. The stable
outlook is supported by SEP's affiliation with SE and the
stability of its assets.

Though an upgrade is unlikely in the foreseeable near future, SEP
could be eventually rated Baa2 if its asset portfolio grows to a
size more comparable to those of its Baa2-rated MLP peers as well
as to SE's other assets. SE's rating could be upgraded if
Debt/EBITDA, adjusted to proportionally consolidate SEP's equity
investments, is sustained in the 3 times range.

SEP's rating could come under pressure should the company be
unable to manage its expiring contracts, finance acquisitions with
considerably more debt than equity or have trouble integrating
acquisitions. SEP's rating could be lowered if it sustains
Debt/EBITDA ratios above 5 times.

The principal methodology used in this rating was Global Midstream
Energy published in December 2010.

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Spectra Energy Partners, LP is a
publicly traded master limited partnership, which is sponsored by
Spectra Energy Corp.


SULPHCO, INC: Gets NYSE Amex Notice of Delisting
------------------------------------------------
SulphCo, Inc. disclosed that on June 7, 2011, the Company was
notified by the NYSE Amex LLC of the intent of the Exchange to
strike the common stock of SulphCo from the Exchange by filing a
delisting application with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to Section 1009(d) of the NYSE Amex LLC Company Guide.

Specifically, the written notice from the Exchange stated that the
Company was not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(i) of the
Company Guide with stockholders' equity of less than $2 million
and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in two out
of its three most recent fiscal years; Section 1003(a)(ii) of the
Company Guide with stockholders' equity of less than $4 million
and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three
out of its four most recent fiscal years; and Section 1003(a)(iii)
of the Company Guide with stockholders' equity of less than $6
million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in
its five most recent fiscal years.

The Company does not intend to appeal the Exchange's determination
to delist the Company's common stock.  As such, on June 14, 2011,
the Exchange's determination will become final.  The Exchange will
then suspend trading in the Company's common stock and submit an
application to the SEC to strike the Company's common stock from
listing and registration on the Exchange.

After the Company's common stock is delisted, the Company cannot
predict whether any trading market, including any over-the-counter
trading market, for the Company's common stock will develop or be
sustained.

TENNECO INC: Fitch Upgrades IDR to 'BB'; Outlook Stable
-------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has taken these rating actions on Tenneco, Inc.
(TEN):

   -- IDR upgraded to 'BB' from 'BB-';

   -- Secured credit facility rating upgraded to 'BBB-' from
      'BB+';

   -- Senior unsecured rating upgraded to 'BB-' from 'B+'.

In addition, Fitch has withdrawn TEN's senior secured second lien
notes rating and its subordinated notes rating due to the full
repayment of the associated debt. TEN's ratings apply to a $622
million secured revolving credit facility, a $130 million tranche
B-1 letter of credit/revolving loan facility, a $149 million
secured term loan B and senior unsecured notes totaling $975
million. The Rating Outlook for TEN is Stable.

The upgrade of TEN's ratings reflects the strengthening of the
auto supplier's credit profile that has taken place over the past
year as conditions in the global auto industry continue to
improve. The better operating environment, along with steps the
company took during the downturn to rationalize its cost
structure, have resulted in increased margins and lower leverage,
although free cash flow has been pressured somewhat by working
capital effects and increased capital spending. Nonetheless, total
liquidity at March 31, 2011, remained sufficient, with relatively
light near-term debt maturities and manageable cash pension
obligations. Looking ahead, Fitch expects TEN to benefit
meaningfully from tightening global emission standards for light
and commercial vehicles, as well as off-road equipment. Primary
risks to TEN's credit profile include industry cyclicality,
increasing raw material costs and higher gasoline prices, although
the decline in the company's cost structure and its stronger
balance sheet have improved its ability to withstand another
weakening of auto market conditions.

As with many global Tier 1 suppliers, TEN has benefited from the
rebound in auto production that has taken place since late 2009.
Net revenue in the first quarter ended March 31, 2011, increased
34% to $1.8 billion, outpacing an estimated 5% increase in global
light vehicle production in the period, largely due to an
increasing mix of light vehicles containing TEN-supplied products,
as well as higher commercial vehicle production. As revenues are
rising, the company has been able to take advantage of cost
savings actions, as well as increased asset utilization on higher
business levels, to support margins. Since 2008, TEN permanently
reduced 2,250 jobs from its workforce and closed several
facilities, including three manufacturing facilities in North
America and an engineering facility in Australia.

Going forward, Fitch expects TEN will continue to see demand for
its products outpace overall vehicle production due to its strong
position in the global emission control segment. Worldwide,
emission regulations are tightening, not only for on-road vehicles
but also for off-road equipment, including heavy construction
machinery, locomotives and marine equipment. This is leading to
new business opportunities for TEN, with the company estimating
that up to 35% of its original equipment revenue will be driven by
commercial vehicle and off-highway business by 2015 versus about
9% in 2010. This level of growth, on top of the expected global
growth in light vehicle production, could lead to a doubling or
more of the company's original equipment revenue over the next
five years. With the permanent changes to the company's cost
structure, higher business levels are expected to keep margins at
or above the current historically high levels over the
intermediate term.

In the 12 months ended March 31, 2011, TEN's credit profile
strengthened as a result of its improved operating performance,
while the level of total debt was roughly flat. As of March 31,
2011, TEN's leverage (debt/EBITDA) stood at 2.4 times (x), down
from 3.0x at the end of the first quarter of 2010, while total
debt was $1.3 billion, about the same as at March 31, 2010. EBITDA
(as calculated by Fitch) increased to $559 million in the 12
months ended March 31, 2011, from $440 million in the prior period
as revenue grew 28% to $6.4 billion, while the company's EBITDA
margin was flat at 8.8%. However, free cash flow declined to $39
million in the 12 months ended March 31, 2011, from $143 million
in the prior period, despite a $207 million increase in funds flow
from operations to $382 million. The decline in free cash flow was
driven both by a $184 million negative working capital effect on
increased business levels (versus a $90 million working capital
benefit in the year-earlier period) and a $37 million increase in
capital spending to $159 million.

TEN ended the first quarter of 2011 with a sufficient liquidity
position that consisted of $199 million in cash and marketable
securities and a total of $652 million in availability on the
company's primary revolving credit facilities (including the
tranche B-1 letter of credit/revolving loan facility), for a total
liquidity position of $851 million. In addition, TEN had $68
million of availability on its North American receivables
securitization facilities. Short-term debt and current maturities
of long-term debt at March 31, 2011, stood at $146 million. Beyond
2011, maturities of long-term debt are minimal, $5 million or less
per year, until the $250 million in senior unsecured notes comes
due in 2015.

Over the intermediate term, Fitch expects TEN's metrics to
strengthen further as the company benefits from improving market
conditions, new business wins (especially those tied to commercial
vehicle and off-highway emissions control systems) and continued
cost discipline, all of which are expected to lead to higher
margins and increased free cash flow. Fitch's projects that
leverage will decline slightly during 2011 and could fall further,
to below 2x, by year-end 2012 as a result of ongoing EBITDA growth
and a modest decline in debt. Cash liquidity could grow to nearly
$300 million in 2011 and potentially above $400 million in 2012 if
EBITDA margins remain in roughly the 9% range. The lack of near-
term debt maturities suggests that total debt could remain around
$1.2 billion for the next several years, although the company
could prepay the $149 million outstanding on its secured term loan
without penalty. Also, the TEN's senior unsecured notes due 2015,
which have $250 million outstanding, are callable beginning in
November of this year. Fitch expects free cash flow is will remain
solidly positive over the intermediate term, although it could dip
slightly in 2011 on increased capital spending. Beyond 2011, Fitch
expects capital spending is likely to increase further each year,
but stay relatively consistent as a percentage of revenue.

TEN's credit facility has two financial covenants, a leverage
ratio and an interest coverage ratio. As of March 31, 2011, the
leverage ratio covenant required the company to maintain leverage,
as defined in the credit agreement, below 4.0x and the interest
coverage ratio covenant required the TEN to maintain interest
coverage, also as defined in the agreement, above 2.55x. The
leverage ratio covenant tightens to 3.75x for the period ending
June 30, 2011, and it tightens again to 3.5x for the period ended
September 30, 2011, and for each period thereafter. The interest
coverage covenant tightens to 2.75x in the period ended March 31,
2012, and for each period thereafter. Although the covenants
tighten in future periods, Fitch expects the company will be able
maintain sufficient headroom with respect to the covenants that
the tightening will not pose any ratings concerns.

The greatest risk facing TEN's credit profile in the near term is
the potential for another slowing of the global economy. However,
this risk is offset somewhat by the company's increasingly diverse
customer base and lower cost structure, as well as the regulatory
environment, which will increase the market for emission control
solutions regardless of the strength of the global economy. In
addition, a lack of meaningful debt maturities until 2015 further
helps to mitigate liquidity risk over the next several years,
particularly if market conditions weaken. Rising fuel prices
present a risk to the extent that they could result in a decline
in overall vehicle demand, as well as cause a demand shift toward
smaller vehicles that are less profitable for TEN. Increasing raw
material costs could put some pressure on TEN's margins, but a
substantial portion of the increase will be passed along to the
company's original equipment customers. Offsetting higher material
costs in the aftermarket could be more difficult, however. Fitch
notes that the company's exposure to the March 2011 earthquake and
tsunami in Japan has thus far been limited, and the events there
are not expected to have a meaningful impact on TEN's credit
profile.

The 'BBB-' rating assigned to TEN's secured credit facilities, two
notches above the IDR, reflects the facilities' collateral
backing, which includes virtually all of the company's U.S.
assets, as well as 66% of the stock of TEN's first-tier foreign
subsidiaries. The credit facilities also are guaranteed on a
secured basis by TEN's material U.S. subsidiaries. The 'BB-'
rating assigned to the company's unsecured debt, one notch below
the IDR, reflects the substantial amount of secured debt in the
company's capital structure. If TEN were to fully draw on both its
revolving credit facility and its tranche B-1 facility, roughly
half of the company's debt would be secured, weakening the
position of unsecured debt holders.

The Stable Outlook on TEN's ratings reflects Fitch's view that the
company's credit profile has improved sufficiently to withstand
weaker industry conditions if they were to redevelop, although
Fitch's current industry outlook is for continued global
production growth over the intermediate term (despite the
curtailment in Japanese production that is expected for much of
2011). Fitch could revise the Outlook to Positive or upgrade TEN's
ratings if global vehicle production shows continued improvement
and if the company's credit metrics strengthen further. On the
other hand, Fitch could revise the Outlook to Negative or
downgrade the ratings in the case of a steep drop in vehicle
production tied to a weakening in the global economy that causes a
meaningful deterioration in the company's credit metrics over a
prolonged period. A debt-financed acquisition or shareholder-
friendly actions that result in an increase in leverage also could
prompt a negative rating action.

Since the commencement of the Chapter 11 case, the business has
continued to operate in the ordinary course with no interruptions
of any kind.  "While the decision to file for Chapter 11 was not
an easy one, we ultimately felt it was the best course of action
to protect our business while we work toward a resolution of our
financial issues with Jiffy Lube International and Pennzoil," said
Sean Porcher, TCFL's CEO.  "While we have been working diligently
towards and would prefer to find a solution that would permit us
to continue as part of the Jiffy Lube network, we refuse to
compromise the recoveries of our stakeholders and employees to do
so."

Dating back to early 2010, the company has been unable to reach
agreement on the differences that exist with both Jiffy Lube
International and Pennzoil, Shell Oil.  "Our franchisor and oil
supplier continue to place overly burdensome demands upon us that
will continue to cripple our business for decades to come,"
explained Mr. Porcher.   The the company takes its first step in
separation from Pennzoil by announcing plans to reject their oil
supply contract dating back to 2008.  While Pennzoil is a leading
brand in the motor oil market, the premium installers pay for the
brand quickly erodes their bottom line cash flow.  Pennzoil often
provides upfront capital to fund business start-up in return for
long term purchase agreements.  Once under purchase agreement,
companies like TCFL are obligated to purchase exclusively from
Pennzoil regardless of price increases or competitive
fluctuations.  "The rejection of this supply agreement will
provide us the flexibility to explore agreements with competing
brands.  We are currently fielding offers from other major oil
suppliers and franchisors who are interested in forging a
strategic partnership with us to grow the quick oil change
business in the North West," explained Mr. Porcher.

For Tri-Cities Fast Lubes, Inc. to emerge from Chapter 11 as
anticipated, they need to show a long-term viable business plan.
While the company remains hopeful that the plan can be built
around their foundation as a Jiffy Lube franchisee and Pennzoil
products customer, Porcher noted: "our number one priority is
making TCFL successful for years to come.  I have spent over half
of my life in the Jiffy Lube system, but we are really at a
crossroads here.  If other oil companies and franchisors are
willing to forge an alliance with us and provide us upfront
capital to help fund our emergence from Chapter 11, we will have
no choice other than to seriously consider those offers."

While the company has made no announcement regarding lease
rejections, Porcher noted that their deadline is quickly
approaching for assumption or rejection of leases.  The company is
currently making contingency plans regarding lease rejections if
their differences cannot be resolved with Shell.

Based in Arroyo, California, Tri-Cities Fast Lubes, Inc., is a
Jiffy Lube franchise operator.  The Company filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection on Jan. 10, 2011 (Bankr. C.D. Calif. Case
No. 11-10125).  Judge Robin Riblet presides over the Debtor's
case.  Jonathan Gura, Esq., at Michaelson Susi & Michaelson,
represents the Debtor in its restructuring efforts.  The Debtor
estimated both assets and debts of between $1 million and $10
million in its petition.

UNITED CONTINENTAL: Gives Notice Of 4.50% Notes Put Option
----------------------------------------------------------
United Continental Holdings, Inc., in a public statement dated
May 24, 2011, informed holders of the $726,000,000 outstanding
principal amount of its 4.50% Senior Limited-Subordination
Convertible Notes due 2021 that they have an option, according to
the terms of the Notes, to require the company to purchase, on
June 30, 2011, all or a portion of the holders' Notes at a price
equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, plus
any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, June 30, 2011.

As June 30, 2011 is an interest payment date for the Notes,
interest accrued up to the purchase date will be paid to record
holders as of the regular record date immediately preceding this
interest payment date, and therefore United Continental expects
that there will be no accrued and unpaid interest due as part of
the purchase price.

Under the terms of the Notes, United Continental has the option
to pay the purchase price for the Notes with cash, United
Continental common stock, or a combination of cash and UAL common
stock.  The company has elected to pay for the Notes solely with
cash.

Consistent with the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, United Continental submitted a tender offer statement
on Schedule TO-I on May 24, 2011, with respect to the right of
each holder of the Notes to sell and the obligation of the
company to repurchase the Notes.

United Continental Senior Vice President for Finance and
Treasurer Gerald Laderman states that the Company is the issuer
of the Notes and is obligated to purchase all of the Notes if
properly tendered by the holders under the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in an indenture dated July 25, 2006,
among United Continental, United Air Lines, Inc., as guarantor,
and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as trustee.

United Continental will pay to the SEC $84,289 as registration
fee for the Notes, which filing fee equals $116.10 for each
$1,000,000 of the value of the transaction.

In addition, United Continental issued a notice on May 24, 2011,
to the holders of the Notes specifying terms, conditions and
procedures for exercising the Put Option.  The notice is
available through The Depository Trust Company and the paying
agent, which is The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.

Neither the company, its board of directors, nor its employees
has made or is making any representation or recommendation to any
holder as to whether to exercise or refrain from exercising the
Put Option, Mr. Laderman clarifies.

Noteholders' opportunity to exercise the Put Option will commence
on June 1, 2011, and will terminate at 5:00 p.m. ET on June 29,
2011.  Holders may withdraw any previously delivered purchase
notice pursuant to the terms of the Put Option at any time prior
to 5:00 p.m. ET, on June 29, 2011.

UNITED CONTINENTAL: Reduces Capacity on Rising Fuel Costs
---------------------------------------------------------
United Continental Holdings, Inc., has resized its operation and
has expected flat consolidated capacity year-over-year in 2011 in
light of rising fuel costs and global instability, Zane Rowe,
executive vice president and chief financial officer of the
Company, said at the Bank of America Merrill Lynch Global
Transportation conference on May 19, 2011.

United has twice reduced its planned full year 2011 capacity
growth in light of rising fuel prices, Mr. Rowe emphasized.

In addition, United Continental has reduced near-term fuel price
volatility through hedging program, Gerry Laderman, senior vice
president - finance and treasurer of the Company, continued.
About 46% of remaining 2011 expected consolidated fuel
consumption is hedged by the Company, according to Mr. Laderman.

Despite rising fuel costs, the Company has sufficient liquidity
available for integration needs, Mr. Laderman noted.  Indeed, for
the quarter ended March 31, 2011, United Continental has $8.9
billion in unrestricted liquidity, he disclosed.  He added that
the Company's ancillary revenue per passenger has increased 150%
since 2007.

Mr. Rowe further stated that United Continental hopes to achieve
these merger-related milestones:

  * extend branding to remaining hubs by fourth quarter of 2011;

  * receive single operating certificate by year-end 2011; and

  * put in place a single reservation system by mid-2012.

The merger between United Air Lines, Inc. and Continental
Airlines, Inc. is on track to achieve 25% of gross synergies in
2011, Mr. Rowe said.

In other updates, Mr. Laderman mentioned that United Continental
is focused on reducing debt and unencumbering assets.  He related
that $1.2 billion of scheduled debt and capital lease obligations
will be due in the second quarter of 2011 and $726 million in
convertible debt.  By 2015, nearly half of the United mainline
aircraft will come off lease or have debt maturing, he added.

             United Raises Fares as Fuel Costs Rise

United and Continental raised fares in late April by up to $20
per round trip ticket on many U.S. flights to combat higher fuel
costs, The Associated Press reported.

United spokesperson Mike Trevino disclosed that fares were up $3
each way on flights longer than 500 miles, and $10 each way for
first class tickets, AP said.

The report noted that U.S. airlines have raised prices more than
half a dozen times this year.  Despite that, United Continental
has lost $213 million to higher fuel costs, the report said.
United Continental saw its fuel bill rise $560 million or 26%
from a year ago, the report added.

A separate report from The Columbus Dispatch added that United
Continental paid 35% more for fuel in the first three months of
the year than it did a year earlier.

UNITED CONTINENTAL: Merged Company Facing Thousands of Questions
----------------------------------------------------------------
United Air Lines, Inc. and Continental Airlines, Inc. are taking
care of the details of their $3.2 billion merger, Susan Carey of
The Wall Street Journal reports.

The merged company will be faced with "a thousand of questions
large and small" as they strive to bring consistency to their
operations and ultimately earn Federal Aviation Administration
clearance to fly as one, Ms. Carey states.  Among those questions
are: How many bowling balls should passengers be allowed to
check? What is the best way to lift a Labrador retriever into
cargo hold" Should baggage tags be blue or orange?

The combined company already took steps to allow passengers at
some of the largest airports it serves to check in and print
boarding passes for flights on either airline using either
carrier's check-in kiosks, Ms. Carey discloses.  Initially, 2,200
kiosks at 80 airports will be enabled, she notes.

United and Continental also aligned their boarding processes,
linked some aspects of their frequent-flier plans and rolled out
new branding -- the melding of Continental's blue and gray globe
logo and the United name -- at the big hub at Chicago's O'Hare
International Airport, Ms. Carey states.

Complete integration is expected by mid-2012, according to Ms.
Carey.

Ms. Carey comments that the toughest challenges faced by merging
airlines are usually the meshing of reservation systems, fleets
and employees.  Other operational issues abound, especially
between behemoths like United and Continental that have been
accumulating manuals, training regimens and other how-we-do-it
idiosyncrasies for eight decades, she writes.

Indeed, many issues have yet to be settled, Ms. Carey notes.  She
points out that the name and rules of a combined frequent-flier
plan haven't been set.  The two airlines have also not decided
whether to retain United's three-cabin layout on international
planes, go with Continental's two-cabin configuration, or some
variant, she adds.

To address those issues and other details, 25 integration teams
across the company are tasked to scrutinize how the carriers
operate and decide how to reconcile differences, The Journal
notes.  "There are a million things going on here," The Journal
quotes Lori Gobillot, Esq., a former Continental lawyer who is
now vice president of integration management at the combined
carrier, as saying.

The goal is to select safe, consistent and cost-efficient
policies to satisfy regulators and smooth the transition for
employees and customers, relates Ms. Carey.

According to Ron Ashkenas' blog with www.Forbes.com, United
Continental Chief Executive Officer Jeff Smisek acknowledged that
integrating two airlines is complex and that full integration
process would take between 12 and 18 months, citing an internal
communication to Continental customers.

Since it started the integration process nine months ago, "United
Continental's traffic has experienced the trend of slowing growth
or declines . . . since combining operating data in October," Mr.
Ashkenas states.  The blog further notes that while smaller and
discount carriers managed to escape the "wrath of the declining
economy," United Continental experienced the brunt of it along
with greater losses associated with the merger.

VITRO SAB: Demands Disclosures From Dissenting Bondholders
----------------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that Vitro SAB is demanding that the ad hoc committee of
dissenting bondholders provide details about its members' holdings
or lose the right to participate in the U.S. subsidiaries'
bankruptcy reorganizations in Dallas.

The bondholders, according to Mr. Rochelle, said in a court filing
on June 3 that the "better than anticipated" auction for the U.S.
businesses is nonetheless "unlikely" to result any recovery for
unsecured creditors of the U.S. companies.  The bondholders
describe the gross price as being $64.4 million.  The bondholder
group is opposing approval of bonuses for senior managers and
payment of severance benefits.

Mr. Rochelle relates that Vitro filed papers on June 3 alleging
that the unofficial bondholder group is in default of its
obligations under bankruptcy rules requiring disclosure of claim
holdings by creditors acting together.  The company says the
bondholders only said earlier in the case that they control
$773 million of the $1.2 billion in notes in default for two
years.  Vitro says each bondholder in the group must disclose when
the notes were acquired and for how much.  Vitro also wants to
know details on any sales of bonds.

The bondholders, Mr. Rochelle notes, are opposing what they
calculate would be about $840,000 in bonuses for the chief
executive and chief financial officers.  The objectors say that
would be a retention bonus that Congress banned for companies in
bankruptcy.  They also object to $286,000 in bonuses for 15 other
managers.

Last week the bondholders filed a different set of papers opposing
immediate cash payment of severance benefits that arise from pre-
bankruptcy services.  There will be a June 13 hearing on Vitro's
motions for bonuses and severance payments.  A hearing date hasn't
been set yet on the motion to compel disclosure by bondholders
about what they own.

Vitro announced last week that American Glass Enterprises LLC, an
affiliate of Sun Capital Partners Inc., won the auction for the
U.S. businesses with a bid of $55.1 million.  June 9 is the date
of the hearing to approve the sale.

                        About Vitro SAB

Headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico, Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV:
VITROA; NYSE: VTO), through its two subsidiaries, Vitro Envases
Norteamerica, SA de C.V. and Vimexico, S.A. de C.V., is a global
glass producer, serving the construction and automotive glass
markets and glass containers needs of the food, beverage, wine,
liquor, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries.

Vitro is the largest manufacturer of glass containers and flat
glass in Mexico, with consolidated net sales in 2009 of MXN23,991
million (US$1.837 billion).

Vitro defaulted on its debt in 2009, and sought to restructure
around US$1.5 billion in debt, including US$1.2 billion in notes.
Vitro launched an offer to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt
from bondholders.  The tender offer would be consummated with a
bankruptcy filing in Mexico and Chapter 15 filing in the United
States.  Vitro said noteholders would recover as much as 73% by
exchanging existing debt for cash, new debt or convertible bonds.

           Concurso Mercantil & Chapter 15 Proceedings

Vitro SAB on Dec. 13, 2010, filed its voluntary petition for a
pre-packaged Concurso Plan in the Federal District Court for Civil
and Labor Matters for the State of Nuevo Leon, commencing its
voluntary concurso mercantil proceedings -- the Mexican equivalent
of a prepackaged Chapter 11 reorganization.  Vitro SAB also
commenced parallel proceedings under Chapter 15 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-16619) in Manhattan
on Dec. 13, 2010, to seek U.S. recognition and deference to its
bankruptcy proceedings in Mexico.

Early in January 2011, the Mexican Court dismissed the Concurso
Mercantil proceedings.  The judge said Vitro couldn't push through
a plan to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt from bondholders
based on the vote of US$1.9 billion of intercompany debt when
third-party creditors were opposed.  Vitro as a result dismissed
the first Chapter 15 petition following the ruling by the Mexican
court.

On April 12, 2011, an appellate court in Mexico reinstated the
reorganization.  Accordingly, Vitro SAB on April 14 re-filed a
petition for recognition of its Mexican reorganization in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 11-11754).

In the present Chapter 15 case, the Debtor seeks to block any
creditor suits in the U.S. pending the reorganization in Mexico.

                     Chapter 11 Proceedings

A group of noteholders opposed the exchange -- namely Knighthead
Master Fund, L.P., Lord Abbett Bond-Debenture Fund, Inc., Davidson
Kempner Distressed Opportunities Fund LP, and Brookville Horizons
Fund, L.P.  Together, they held US$75 million, or approximately 6%
of the outstanding bond debt.  The Noteholder group commenced
involuntary bankruptcy cases under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code against Vitro Asset Corp. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case
No. 10-47470) and 15 other affiliates on Nov. 17, 2010.

Vitro engaged Susman Godfrey, L.L.P. as U.S. special litigation
counsel to analyze the potential rights that Vitro may exercise in
the United States against the ad hoc group of dissident
bondholders and its advisors.

A larger group of noteholders, known as the Ad Hoc Group of Vitro
Noteholders -- comprised of holders, or investment advisors to
holders, which represent approximately US$650 million of the
Senior Notes due 2012, 2013 and 2017 issued by Vitro -- was not
among the Chapter 11 petitioners, although the group has expressed
concerns over the exchange offer.  The group says the exchange
offer exposes Noteholders who consent to potential adverse
consequences that have not been disclosed by Vitro.  The group is
represented by John Cunningham, Esq., and Richard Kebrdle, Esq. at
White & Case LLP.

The U.S. affiliates subject to the involuntary petitions are Vitro
Chemicals, Fibers & Mining, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-
47472); Vitro America, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47473);
Troper Services, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47474); Super

Holdings, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47478); B.B.O.
Holdings, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47479); Binswanger

(Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47484); and Vitro Packaging, LLC
(Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47485).

A bankruptcy judge in Fort Worth, Texas, denied involuntary
Chapter 11 petitions filed against four U.S. subsidiaries.  On
April 6, 2011, Vitro SAB agreed to put Vitro units -- Vitro
America LLC and three other U.S. subsidiaries -- that were subject
to the involuntary petitions into voluntary Chapter 11.  The Texas
Court on April 21 denied involuntary petitions against the eight
U.S. subsidiaries that didn't consent to being in Chapter 11.

                        About Vitro SAB

Headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico, Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV:
VITROA; NYSE: VTO), through its two subsidiaries, Vitro Envases
Norteamerica, SA de C.V. and Vimexico, S.A. de C.V., is a global
glass producer, serving the construction and automotive glass
markets and glass containers needs of the food, beverage, wine,
liquor, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries.

Vitro is the largest manufacturer of glass containers and flat
glass in Mexico, with consolidated net sales in 2009 of MXN23,991
million (US$1.837 billion).

Vitro defaulted on its debt in 2009, and sought to restructure
around US$1.5 billion in debt, including US$1.2 billion in notes.
Vitro launched an offer to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt
from bondholders.  The tender offer would be consummated with a
bankruptcy filing in Mexico and Chapter 15 filing in the United
States.  Vitro said noteholders would recover as much as 73% by
exchanging existing debt for cash, new debt or convertible bonds.

           Concurso Mercantil & Chapter 15 Proceedings

Vitro SAB on Dec. 13, 2010, filed its voluntary petition for a
pre-packaged Concurso Plan in the Federal District Court for Civil
and Labor Matters for the State of Nuevo Leon, commencing its
voluntary concurso mercantil proceedings -- the Mexican equivalent
of a prepackaged Chapter 11 reorganization.  Vitro SAB also
commenced parallel proceedings under Chapter 15 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-16619) in Manhattan
on Dec. 13, 2010, to seek U.S. recognition and deference to its
bankruptcy proceedings in Mexico.

Early in January 2011, the Mexican Court dismissed the Concurso
Mercantil proceedings.  The judge said Vitro couldn't push through
a plan to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt from bondholders
based on the vote of US$1.9 billion of intercompany debt when
third-party creditors were opposed.  Vitro as a result dismissed
the first Chapter 15 petition following the ruling by the Mexican
court.

On April 12, 2011, an appellate court in Mexico reinstated the
reorganization.  Accordingly, Vitro SAB on April 14 re-filed a
petition for recognition of its Mexican reorganization in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 11-11754).

In the present Chapter 15 case, the Debtor seeks to block any
creditor suits in the U.S. pending the reorganization in Mexico.

                     Chapter 11 Proceedings

A group of noteholders opposed the exchange -- namely Knighthead
Master Fund, L.P., Lord Abbett Bond-Debenture Fund, Inc., Davidson
Kempner Distressed Opportunities Fund LP, and Brookville Horizons
Fund, L.P.  Together, they held US$75 million, or approximately 6%
of the outstanding bond debt.  The Noteholder group commenced
involuntary bankruptcy cases under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code against Vitro Asset Corp. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case
No. 10-47470) and 15 other affiliates on Nov. 17, 2010.

Vitro engaged Susman Godfrey, L.L.P. as U.S. special litigation
counsel to analyze the potential rights that Vitro may exercise in
the United States against the ad hoc group of dissident
bondholders and its advisors.

A larger group of noteholders, known as the Ad Hoc Group of Vitro
Noteholders -- comprised of holders, or investment advisors to
holders, which represent approximately US$650 million of the
Senior Notes due 2012, 2013 and 2017 issued by Vitro -- was not
among the Chapter 11 petitioners, although the group has expressed
concerns over the exchange offer.  The group says the exchange
offer exposes Noteholders who consent to potential adverse
consequences that have not been disclosed by Vitro.  The group is
represented by John Cunningham, Esq., and Richard Kebrdle, Esq. at
White & Case LLP.

The U.S. affiliates subject to the involuntary petitions are Vitro
Chemicals, Fibers & Mining, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-
47472); Vitro America, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47473);

Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47483); V-MX Holdings, LLC
(Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47484); and Vitro Packaging, LLC
(Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47485).

A bankruptcy judge in Fort Worth, Texas, denied involuntary
Chapter 11 petitions filed against four U.S. subsidiaries.  On
April 6, 2011, Vitro SAB agreed to put Vitro units -- Vitro
America LLC and three other U.S. subsidiaries -- that were subject
to the involuntary petitions into voluntary Chapter 11.  The Texas
Court on April 21 denied involuntary petitions against the eight
U.S. subsidiaries that didn't consent to being in Chapter 11.

Vitro America, et al.  Alvarez & Marsal North America LLC, is the
Debtors' operations and financial advisor.

The official committee of unsecured creditors appointed in the
Chapter 11 cases of Vitro America, et al., has selected Sarah Link
Schultz, Esq., at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, in Dallas,
Texas, and Michael S. Stamer, Esq., Abid Qureshi, Esq., and Alexis
Freeman, Esq., at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, in New York,

VITRO SAB: Creditors Seek to Lift Stay to Service Demand Notices
----------------------------------------------------------------
Knighthead Master Fund, L.P.; Brookville Horizons Fund, L.P.;
Davidson Kempner Distressed Opportunities Fund L.P.; and Lord
Abbett Bond-Debenture Fund, Inc. ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Northern District of Texas to lift the automatic stay to
permit service of demand notices on Vitro Asset Corp., et al --
the Alleged Debtors.

The Creditors' request is in furtherance of their requests to
reconsider the involuntary petitions of the Alleged Debtors.  The
involuntary petitions were denied because the Court found that the
Creditors did not serve written notices, demanding payment on
defaulted debt guaranteed by the Alleged Debtors.

Although the Creditors assert that demand was not required -- and
in any event that proper demand was made on those guarantors --
they filed this motion in an abundance of caution to the extent
that serving new Demand Notices upon the Alleged Debtors is stayed
under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code so that the Creditors
can resolve any defect in the prior demand made upon the Alleged
Debtors and obviate the need for further proceedings regarding the
alleged demand requirement, Allan S. Brilliant, Esq., at Dechert
LLP, in New York -- allan.brilliant@dechert.com -- relates.

Mr. Brilliant contends that if a condition granting an order of
relief is service of the Demand Notices, but the Demand Notices
cannot be served due to the automatic stay, then the Court would
potentially deny the Reconsideration Motions and dismiss the
Alleged Debtors' involuntary cases only to have the Creditors
serve the Demand Notices after the fact and then re-file the
Alleged Debtors' involuntary petitions.  Cause also exists to
modify the automatic stay for the proposed service of the Demand
Notices to streamline the proceedings in these Chapter 11 cases,
he insists.

WARNACO INC: Moody's Assigns 'Ba1' Rating to Secured Term Loan
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a Ba1 rating to Warnaco Inc.'s
proposed $200 million 7 year term loan B. Warnaco Inc. is a wholly
owned subsidiary of The Warnaco Group, Inc. Warnaco's Ba1
Corporate Family and Probability of Default Ratings were affirmed.
The Baa2 ratings assigned to the company's asset-based revolving
credit facilities were placed on review for possible upgrade. The
rating assigned to the new term loan B is based on terms and
conditions as presented to Moody's and is subject to receipt and
review of final documentation for the proposed transaction. The
Corporate Family Rating outlook remains stable.

The proceeds of the term loan will be used for general corporate
purposes, which include funding internal growth and acquisitions,
repaying indebtedness and funding equity purchases

The review for possible upgrade of the asset based credit
facilities reflects the additional loss absorption that would be
available for the asset based lenders. Should the term loan B
close on the terms proposed, Moody's anticipates the Baa2 ratings
currently assigned to the company's asset based revolvers would be
upgraded by one notch to Baa1.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Warnaco's Ba1 Corporate Family Rating is supported by its solid
market position, its strong credit metrics and good liquidity as
well as broad channel diversification. The ratings are also
supported by the company's good operating margins and its track
record of consistent organic growth primarily fueled by strong
international growth of the company's Calvin Klein Jeans and
Calvin Klein Underwear businesses. The company's rating is
constrained by its narrow product focus, high concentration on the
reputation and image of the Calvin Klein brand, as well as
susceptibility to weakness in discretionary consumer spending
inherent in the apparel industry. The company's financial leverage
remains moderate; debt/EBITDA (incorporating Moody's standard
analytical adjustments) is estimated to be around 2.0 times pro
forma for the proposed transaction.

The Ba1 rating assigned to the proposed term loan reflects its
first priority interest in the Borrower's (Warnaco Inc.) and
Guarantor's (The Warnaco Group, Inc.) long term assets (including
a pledge of 65% of the stock of its direct foreign subsidiaries)
and its 2nd lien position on the collateral which secures the
company's asset-based revolver.

The stable rating outlook reflects expectations Warnaco will
sustain operating performance, invest in growth initiatives and
maintain balanced financial policies.

Upward rating momentum could develop over time if the company is
able to meaningfully diversify concentration risk around the
Calvin Klein brand and its limited product categories while
maintaining strong liquidity and credit metrics near current
levels. That a significant majority of the company's debt is
secured also constrains upward rating momentum.

Ratings could be downgraded if there is a persistent decline in
revenues or operating margins. Ratings could also be downgraded if
the company adopted significantly more aggressive financial
policies. Quantitatively, the rating could be downgraded if
adjusted operating margins materially erode from current levels or
debt/EBITDA is sustained above 3.0 times.

These ratings were affirmed:

   The Warnaco Group, Inc.

   -- Corporate Family Rating at Ba1

   -- Probability of Default Rating at Ba1

This rating was assigned:

   Warnaco Inc.

   -- $200 million term loan B due in June 2018 at Ba1 (LGD 3,
      46%)

These ratings were placed on review for possible upgrade (LGD
assessments are subject to change):

   Warnaco Inc.

   -- $270 million asset based revolver due August 2013 at Baa2
      (LGD 2, 20%)

   Warnaco of Canada Company

   -- $30 million asset based revolver due August 2013 at Baa2
      (LGD 2,20%)

The principal methodology used in rating Warnaco Group Inc. was
the Global Apparel Industry Methodology, published May 2010. Other
methodologies used include Loss Given Default for Speculative
Grade Issuers in the US, Canada, and EMEA, published June 2009.

The Warnaco Group, Inc., headquartered in New York, New York
designs, sources, markets, licenses and distributes a broad line
of intimate apparel, sportswear and swimwear worldwide under a
variety of brands such as Calvin Klein, Speedo, Chaps, Warner's
and Olga. Revenues for the twelve months ended April 2, 2011 were
approximately $2.4 billion.


WILLIAM LYON: S&P Lowers CCR to 'CCC-'; Outlook Negative
--------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its corporate credit
rating on California-based William Lyon Homes to 'CCC-' from 'CCC'
and its ratings on roughly $283 million of senior unsecured notes
to 'C' from 'CC'. "The '6' recovery rating, indicating our
expectation for negligible (0%-10%) recovery, is unchanged. We
also removed these ratings from CreditWatch, where we placed them
with negative implications on April 27, 2011, because the company
had not completed its fiscal year financial statements in
accordance with the terms governing its senior unsecured notes.
The outlook is negative," S&P related.

S&P noted, "Our rating on William Lyon reflects the company's
highly leveraged financial risk profile. The privately held
homebuilder recently filed its previously delinquent financial
statements, which revealed that large impairment charges were
taken in the fourth quarter of 2010. We lowered our rating because
these charges erased most of the homebuilder's tangible net worth
and contributed to covenant pressures. We also view the company's
business risk profile to be vulnerable because of lower home
prices in many of its core markets, which contributed to the
impairment charges, and a sales platform that we view to be
too small to support current interest costs and other fixed
expenses."

California-based William Lyon is a privately held homebuilder with
communities in California, Nevada, and Arizona. These markets
remain among the hardest hit by the nation's severe housing market
correction. As a consequence, the company's revenues have dropped
85% to just $290 million on 739 deliveries in the 12 months ended
March 31, 2011, from peak levels in 2004. "Adjusted EBITDA was
negligible during this period. Considering that the company is
selling out of just 19 communities, we view it to be highly
unlikely that the company will generate sufficient EBITDA to cover
interest incurred (estimated at about $60 million annually) in the
next year or two," S&P noted.

Falling home prices and slow new home sales in William Lyon's core
markets contributed to a $112 million impairment charge in the
fourth quarter of 2010. This charge equated to roughly 18% of the
company's owned inventory (previously $621 million) and eliminated
nearly all of the company's equity (just $13 million on March 31,
2011). Debt still totals about $518 million (98% of capital) and
includes $283 million of publicly traded senior unsecured notes.
This debt has a short weighted average maturity of a little less
than three years, which we consider to be problematic for a
company with a constrained liquidity profile.

The negative outlook reflects the company's constrained liquidity
profile and the heightened potential for a payment default if
management is not successful in resolving covenant issues or a
selective default if we deem a future debt exchange to be a
distressed exchange. "We would lower our corporate credit and
issue ratings to 'D' in the event of a payment default. We would
lower our issue ratings to 'D' in the event of a distressed
exchange or similar restructuring," S&P said.

* Business Bankruptcies Fall 18% Compared With 2010
---------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that the 122,700 bankruptcy filings in the U.S. in May
were 12.5% fewer than the same month the year before. Commercial
bankruptcy filings are down even more.  The 6,570 business
bankruptcies in May represented an 18% decline from May 2010.
Filings in May were 8% below the year's peak in March, according
to data compiled from court records by Epiq Systems Inc.  May's
filings were 5% fewer than April.

If the pace for the year continues, 2011 would have about 1.465
million bankruptcies, or 9% fewer than 2011.  All 50 states
reported fewer bankruptcies so far this year, Epiq reported.
The 3,850 Chapter 11 filings by businesses so far this year are on
pace to end the year 13% below last year.


* California Bill on Municipal Bankruptcy Intervention Advances
---------------------------------------------------------------
American Bankruptcy Institute reports that California's Assembly
approved a bill Thursday that would require local governments to
go into mediation before they could file for bankruptcy, an option
some have discussed after Vallejo became the state's biggest city
to seek bankruptcy protection.


* Hawaii Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Filings Flat in May 2011
-------------------------------------------------------
Erika Engle at Star Advertiser reports that bankruptcy filings in
Hawaii were virtually flat in May, but there was a spike in
Chapter 13, or so-called wage-earner, cases.

liquidation.

While the number of Chapter 7 cases, which offer debt liquidation,
dropped 10.4% in May from a year ago, the number of Chapter 13
filings shot up 40.9%, to 93 cases from 66 for the same period.

                           *********

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

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

A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Wednesday's edition of the TCR.  Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged.  Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com/

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

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

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

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

For copies of court documents filed in the District of Delaware,
please contact Vito at Parcels, Inc., at 302-658-9911.  For
bankruptcy documents filed in cases pending outside the District
of Delaware, contact Ken Troubh at Nationwide Research &
Consulting at 207/791-2852.
