1250 OCEANSIDE: Wants CRO Employment Extended Until Case Closing
----------------------------------------------------------------
1250 Oceanside Partners asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Hawaii to extend until the closing of its bankruptcy
case, the employment of G. Rick Robinson as chief restructuring
officer.

By order dated May 8, 2013, the Court authorized the Debtor to
employ Mr. Robinson as CRO under these terms:

   1. Mr. Robinsons' appointments as CRO will be for a period
      of six months from and after the date of the entry of an
      order approving the application;

   2. Mr. Robinson will be paid $15,000 per month, plus general
      excise tax thereon, and will be reimbursed for all travel
      and other necessary expenses; and

   3. in the event an order confirming the Debtors' reorganization
      plan is entered during the six month-period, Mr. Robinson
      will be paid a bonus of $25,000.

Pursuant to the terms of the engagement, Mr. Robinson's employment
as CRO was scheduled to expire Nov. 8.

The Debtor requested that, among other things:

   -- Mr. Robinson's appointment as CRO is extended until the
      closing of the bankruptcy cases;

   -- Mr. Robinson will be paid $15,000 per month, plus general
      excise tax thereon, and will be reimbursed for all travel
      and other necessary expenses; and

   -- Mr. Robinson will be paid a $15,000 bonus after the Court
      enters an order closing the case.

                  About 1250 Oceanside Partners

1250 Oceanside Partners, Front Nine, LLC, and Pacific Star
Company, LLC, owners of the 1,800-acre Hokuli'a luxury real
estate development near Kona on the island of Hawaii, sought
Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D. Hawaii Lead Case No. 13-00353)
on March 6, 2013, in Honolulu.

The Debtors were formed by developer Lyle Anderson and were
part of his development "empire", which included developments
in Hawaii, Arizona, New Mexico and Scotland.  The secured
lender, Bank of Scotland, declared a default and obtained
control of the Debtors in January 2008.

Development of the property, which has 3.5 miles of waterfront
on the Kona coast, stopped after the developers were declared
in default under the loan.  Oceanside and Front Nine own most
of the land within the Hokuli'a project, which is the principal
development.  Pacific Star owns the land referred to as
"Keopuka", near Hokuli'a.  The Hokuli'a was to have 730
residential units, an 18-hole golf course, club and other
amenities.

The Debtors say their assets are worth $68.1 million while they
are jointly liable to $625 million of debt to Sun Kona Finance
LLC, which acquired the Hawaii loan from Bank of Scotland.

Simon Klevansky, Esq., Alika L. Piper, Esq., and Nicole D.
Stucki, Esq., at Klevansky Piper, LLP, represent the Debtor in
its restructuring effort.  They replaced the law firm of Gelber,
Gelber & Ingersoll as general counsel.

1250 Oceanside Partners, its affiliates and lender Sun Kona
Finance I LLC, won court approval of the disclosure statement
explaining a reorganization plan that would turn over ownership to
its secured lender.  Sun Kona would provide a $65 million exit
facility to help make payments under the plan and to fund the
reorganized company when it leaves court protection.

A creditors committee has not been appointed.

James A. Wagner, Esq., and Allison A. Ito, Esq., at Wagner Choi &
Verbrugge, represent creditor Sun Kona Finance I, LLC, as counsel.


1617 WESTCLIFF: Bank Says It Won't Be Paid in Full Under Plan
-------------------------------------------------------------
Secured creditor Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Trustee for the
Registered Holders of Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage
Securities Corp., Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates,
Series 2004-C3, objects to Debtor 1617 Westcliff, LLC's proposed
Disclosure Statement describing Debtor's Modified First Amended
Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization.

According to Secured Creditor, the sole remaining issue in the
Debtor's Chapter 11 case is a dispute over whether Secured
Creditor or the Debtor's insider, Dr. Rettig, is entitled to
approximately $630,000 in undisbursed sales proceeds sitting in
escrow following the Court approved Section 363 sale of the
Debtor's real property back in the beginning of September.
"Whatever the outcome of this dispute, creditors will be paid in
full."

Secured Creditor says the disputed funds represent contractual,
accrued default interest that must be paid to Secured Creditor in
satisfaction of its allowed, fully secured claim.  "Accordingly,
the Disclosure Statement should not be approved because the Plan
does not provide for payment in full of Secured Creditor's claim,
rendering the Plan unconfirmable on its face.  Moreover, from a
practical standpoint, since this dispute is the only issue
standing in the way of confirmation (and, indeed, closing this
case), Secured Creditor submits that it should be addressed now
rather than later in the confirmation process."

A copy of Wells Fargo's Objection is available at:

         http://bankrupt.com/misc/1617westcliff.doc232.pdf

As reported in the TCR on Nov. 5, 2013, the revised Disclosure
Statement explains that the First Amended Plan filed on July 1,
2013, proposes two possible means of paying creditors:

  (1) To sell the Debtor's real property asset before
      confirmation, enabling the Debtor to pay creditors in full
      from sales proceeds upon or before the Effective Date, thus
      curing all defaults upon confirmation and allowing for
      elimination of default interest on a secured claim; or

  (2) To sell the property post-confirmation, enabling the Debtor
      to pay creditors in full but not effecting cure at
      confirmation, thus not allowing the Debtor to eliminate
      default interest.

The Debtor was able to sell its real property asset prior to
confirmation of the Plan for an amount sufficient to pay all
creditors in full: the Court therefore ordered Debtor to modify
its Plan so that creditors would understand clearly what Debtor
had done and would do through the First Amended Plan.

available at:

                      About 1617 Westcliff

1617 Westcliff, LLC, filed a bare-bones Chapter 11 petition
(Bankr. C.D. Cal. Case No. 12-19326) on Aug. 2, 2012, in Santa
Ana, California.  The Debtor estimated assets of $10 million to
$50 million and liabilities of $1 million to $10 million.
Bankruptcy Judge Mark S. Wallace oversees the case.  Sarah C.
Boone, Esq., and D. Edward Hays, Esq., at Marshack Hays LLP, serve
as the Debtor's counsel.

The Debtor filed the plan of liquidation and disclosure statement
on July 1, 2013, seeking to accomplish payment of creditors in
full by reorganizing its personal assets and liabilities through
the sale of its only substantial asset, a commercial real property
commonly known as 1617 Westcliff Drive, in Newport Beach,
California.  The property, according to court documents, is a
mixed use, Class B building mostly occupied by medical office
space.  It comprises 32,000 square feet of rentable space in a
single two-story building situated on approximately 1.56 acres of
land in an up-scale commercial district of Newport Beach.


1617 WESTCLIFF: Asks Court to Overrule Bank's Objection
----------------------------------------------------------
1617 Westcliff, LLC, says the proposed Disclosure Statement
describing its Modified First Amended Chapter 11 Plan of
Reorganization should be approved and the bank's objection should
be overruled.

According to the Debtor, it proposed a Chapter 11 Plan of
Reorganization which included a provision that Debtor would sell
the real property asset of the Estate on or before the Effective
Date of the Plan and use the proceeds of that sale to pay all
components of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.'s secured claim excepting
only default interest.

"Pursuant to applicable Ninth Circuit law, that would allow Debtor
to "cure" the claim through the Plan and thereby eliminate the
Bank's entitlement to the default interest.  Debtor accordingly
marketed the property, located a buyer, sought the Court's
approval of the sale, and closed the sale.  Debtor's Plan proposed
the sale as the primary and preferred means of effecting Debtor's
reorganization, and Debtor's subsequent sale motion referenced the
Plan and asserted that the sale was to effect the terms of the
Plan.  Upon closing, Debtor did indeed pay to the Bank the
undisputed portion of the Bank's claim, comprising principal
balance, prepayment premium, late charges, note rate interest,
costs, and fees, in the total amount of $7,667,145.09.  Pending
Plan confirmation, Debtor segregated the $532,860.31 of default
interest as calculated by the Bank-and, at the Bank's demand, an
additional $100,000 of amounts otherwise payable to Debtor.

"In other words, Debtor did everything right under the Bankruptcy
Code and applicable case law to effect cure of the Bank's claim
and eliminate the default interest.  Yet, ignoring every relevant
factual circumstance and event in this case, the Bank claims that
the sale was "outside the context of a Chapter 11 Plan" and
complains that Debtor cannot "bootstrap" the sale of the Property
into a Chapter 11 Plan.  To the contrary, the Bank cannot rewrite
everything that has occurred in this case and escape the
consequences of Debtor's hard work and successes in this
bankruptcy merely by pretending that a sale-proposed by a Plan,
properly approved by the Court, and effected in contemplation of
and in the context of the provisions of a previously filed and
pending Plan-is entirely unrelated to the Debtor's Plan of
Reorganization."

Thus, the Debtor requests that the Court overrule the Bank's
objections and approve Debtor's Disclosure Statement so that the
case may proceed to confirmation of the Plan, including cure of
all defaults and elimination of default interest.

250 AZ: Dec. 12 Hearing on Adequacy of Information in Plan Outline
------------------------------------------------------------------
The Bankruptcy Court will convene a hearing on Dec. 12, 2013, at
11 a.m. to consider the adequacy of information in the First
Amended Disclosure Statement explaining 250 AZ LLC's First Amended
Plan of Reorganization dated Nov. 4, 2013.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Nov. 13, 2013, the
First Amended Disclosure Statement updates information on the
Debtor's case including data on Chiquita Center and the litigation
captioned, Columbia Development Corporation vs. City of
Cincinnati, et al., Case No. A1201721.

The First Amended Disclosure Statement also modifies language on
the summary of the Plan.  According to the Disclosure Statement,
the development parcels held by the Debtor are at the juncture of
becoming marketable and sustainable once the conditional zoning
issues are resolved.  It will be necessary for the Debtor to
provide, and it intends to provide, a subsidy to the Claim of the
first mortgage holder during the first 18 months of the Plan as it
develops the ground leasing program or build to suit program that
will be attractive for these parcels.  The Debtor also during the
time period necessary to complete the development of the Quick
Trip store and negotiate new leases or buildings on the other
parcels subsequent to obtain permanent zooming on the property on
the corner of La Cholla and Magee in Tucson.

The Plan is paying the allowed secured claim of the first mortgage
holder on each rental property and on the development parcels.
Under the Plan, in addition to the payments of the allowed secured
claims, the Debtor will pay to the Class 15 unsecured creditors
who file timely proofs of claim a Pro Rata share of the funds paid
to that class.  The Debtor is paying a minimum of $10,000 to the
Class 15 General Unsecured crediors per year over a five-year
period.  Those creditors would receive nothing in a liquidation,
according to the Debtor.

261 EAST: Inks Settlement Agreement With MB Financial Bank
----------------------------------------------------------
261 East 78 Realty Corporation asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York to approve the Debtor's
Settlement Agreement with MB Financial Bank, N.A.  The MB
Settlement Agreement, inter alia, effectively resolves all pending
disputes between the respective parties in the pending Adversary
Proceeding No. 13-01000 that Debtor filed against MB on Jan. 2,
2013, and the Debtor's Chapter 11 case.

The hearing to consider the approval of the settlement will be
held on Nov. 26, 2013, at 9:45 a.m.

According to papers filed with the Court, MB has filed in the
Debtor's Chapter 11 case a secured claim in the amount of
$17,674,827.28 plus continuing default rate interest, advances,
costs and legal fees thereon.

On Jan. 2, 2013, the Debtor filed Adversary Proceeding No. 13-
01000 against MB, alleging various claims against MB arising out
of alleged lender liability related acts (the "Lender Liability
Action").  MB initially moved to dismiss the complaint, after
which the Debtor amended its complaint.  On July 17, 2013, MB
filed an answer to the amended complaint, essentially denying all
of the allegations contained therein.  The matter was set down for
discovery and is currently in the discovery stage.

The Debtor submits that approval of the MB Settlement Agreement is
in its best interest since the agreement materially reduces MB's
secured claim against the Property, waives its rights to
distribution on its almost $7 million deficiency unsecured claim
and allows the Debtor a realistic opportunity to confirm a plan
which will result in distributions to all of the Debtor's
creditors.

Absent the settlement, MB's secured claim, if allowed in full,
would materially diminish if not wholly eliminate any return to
the Debtor's creditors or its estate or, at a minimum, the estate
will incur additional risk, cost, time delay and expense of
prosecuting the Lender Liability Action.

The MB Settlement Agreement further provides that in the event a
final, non-appealable order confirming the First Amended Plan is
not entered within 90 days after the execution of the MB
Settlement Agreement, upon five-days' notice served on the Debtor
and creditors and filed with the Court, MB Financial will be
entitled to relief from the automatic stay, without further order
of the Bankruptcy Court, to resume the Foreclosure Action.
Accordingly, by the motion, the Debtor seeks conditional relief
from the automatic stay in favor of MB to effectuate the terms of
the MB Settlement Agreement.

AES CORP: Moody's Rates $800MM Secured Bankr Credit Facility 'Ba1'
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed the ratings of AES Corporation
(AES) including the Corporate Family Rating (CFR) and senior
unsecured rating at Ba3, the Probability of Default Rating (PDR)
at Ba3-PD, the subordinated debt rating at B2, as well as the SGL-
2 speculative grade liquidity rating. Concurrent with this rating
action Moody's assigned a Ba1 rating to AES' US$800 million senior
secured bank credit facility maturing in July 2018. The rating
outlook for AES is stable.

Ratings Rationale:

The affirmation of the ratings is largely driven by the successful
implementation of cost saving initiatives and the disposal of less
strategic assets ($239 million net during the first nine months of
2013), along with the overall balanced allocation of the proceeds
from a credit perspective. This includes further strengthening of
the AES parent company balance sheet with the additional reduction
by around US$300 million of its recourse debt during this period
coupled with shareholder policies that include a modest dividend
distributions and share repurchase program. This should help AES
to exhibit key financial metrics at both the parent level and on a
consolidated basis that overall remain commensurate with those of
the lower Ba-rating range. Specifically, Moody's anticipates that
AES' 3-year average ratio of consolidated and parent operating
cash flow (POCF, defined as total subsidiary distributions less
parent overhead costs and parent interest expense) to consolidated
and parent-only debt will hover between 8% and 10%, respectively,
with consolidated and parent only interest coverage of at least
2.0x. The rating acting further acknowledges the improved
liquidity profile with the extension earlier this year of its
US$800 million revolving credit facility to 2018 from January
2015.

AES' Ba3 CFR reflects the company's leverage profile and the
structural subordination of its recourse debt to the significant
amount of non-recourse debt in its consolidated capital structure
at the operating subsidiary level. Structural constraints are
somewhat mitigated by the diversification provided by AES' large
number of subsidiaries, the group's wide geographic distribution
and balanced fuel mix, as well as the significant proportion of
the subsidiaries' cash flows that are subject to stable regulation
or long-term contracts. That said, the rating is tempered by the
group's increased reliance on the cash distributions from
subsidiaries that operate in less predictable environments and the
headwinds faced by some of AES' key utility subsidiaries that
diminish their ability to upstream cash flows to AES. The latter
includes the transition to market rates and the restructuring of
its Ohio-based utility business DPL, Inc (Ba2 senior unsecured,
stable), the parent company of The Dayton Power and Light Company
(DP&L: Baa3 Issuer Rating; stable). It further considers the
significant environmental investments of Indianapolis Power and
Light Company (IPL; Baa2; senior unsecured, under review for
possible upgrade) the subsidiary of IPALCO Enterprises (Ba1 senior
secured; review for possible upgrade) as well as the reduced
dividends from AES's Brazilian business following the reduction of
the tariffs of Eletropaulo Metropolitana Eletricidade de Sao Paolo
(third tariff review).

The Ba3 CFR further acknowledges AES' strategy to shift away from
portfolio development and more toward portfolio rationalization
along with its commitment to control costs after management's
recent increase of its cost savings target by $55 million to $200
million by 2015. The rating further considers AES' commitment to
exit markets where it does not have either a competitive advantage
or a strong platform for expansion while focusing on growing its
strategic assets. It further acknowledges the group's efforts to
seek strategic partners to alleviate the financial burden
associated with several new projects, for example partnering with
Google for its 266MW Mount Signal solar project, or with
Mitsubishi Corporation and Antofagasta Minerals S.A. who will hold
a 40% interests in the 472MW (net) two units Cochrane coal-fired
and the 520MW Alto Maipo run-of the river projects currently
pursued by the Chilean AES Gener (Baa3, stable).

AES' liquidity remains adequate and its speculative grade
liquidity rating of SGL-2 reflects good liquidity prospects for
the next twelve months based upon internal holding company cash
flow generation, access to external facilities and ample covenant
headroom under the company's credit facilities. AES has almost
full availability under its $800 million revolving credit facility
due in July 2018. AES has also publicly disclosed its intention to
maintain at year-end around US$100 million cash on hand after the
uses this year of the parent company's cash flows for dividend
distributions ($119 million), share repurchases ($63 million),
debt repayment (including $300 million recourse debt). Around
US$190 million of investments in subsidiaries and up to US$268
million additional investments are still to be allocated. This
includes its potential participation with around $100 million in
Gener's capital increase early next year.

AES stable rating outlook reflects Moody's expectation that the
company will continue to implement its asset rationalization
program, execute a balanced capital allocation that supports the
company in recording credit metrics that are commensurate with the
rating category on both a consolidated and parent only basis. The
stable rating outlook further considers Moody's view that a
reasonable transition to market rates will ultimately materialize
in Ohio.

In light of the expected decline in POCF to the 8-10% range and
the challenges AES faces in Ohio, limited near-term prospects
exist for AES' ratings to increase.

AES' ratings could face downward pressure if the parent level
financial metrics of POCF to debt falls below 8% for an extended
period.

Ratings Rationale:

"The upgrade of Air Canada's ratings is driven by its strong
operating performance over the past few quarters", said Darren
Kirk, Vice President and Senior Credit Officer with Moody's. "The
company has demonstrated solid load factors, good yield management
and significant cost reduction measures while pressures from its
considerable pension burden have eased. This has given us
increased confidence that Air Canada will sustain its adjusted
Debt/ EBITDA below 7x and that it will maintain good liquidity
through the next couple of years", Kirk added.

Air Canada's B3 corporate family rating incorporates the company's
elevated financial leverage, growing competition from lower-cost
carriers, and Moody's expectation that the significant capacity
additions planned by Air Canada and its primary domestic
competitor will inhibit near term earnings growth. The rating also
considers the company's very high cost structure arising from its
legacy carrier status and Moody's expectation that Air Canada's
annual free cash flow will be modestly consumptive into the medium
term as significant wide-body aircraft purchases cause capital
expenditures to remain elevated. Favorably, the rating reflects
Air Canada's meaningful scale, leading market share of domestic,
trans-border and international routes in and out of Canada and
benefits from its position in the Star Alliance network.

The upgrade of Air Canada's liquidity rating is driven by Moody's
expectation that Air Canada's operating cash flows will mostly
cover increasing capital expenditures through 2014, enabling cash
balances to remain in excess of $2 billion through this timeframe.
Moody's expects Air Canada will end 2013 with about $2.2 billion
of cash which is more than sufficient to fund approximately $150
million of expected cash consumption in 2014, about $175 million
in excess pension contributions and $300 million in debt repayment
obligations. External liquidity sources include about $650 million
in committed funding for aircraft purchases in 2014 (including an
estimated $500 million from Boeing as a backstop for 787
purchases) and a $100 million unused revolver. The liquidity
rating also captures Air Canada's minimum cash balance requirement
in its primary credit card agreement, and the fact that nearly all
of its existing assets are already pledged.

Air Canada's senior secured instrument ratings have been assigned
pursuant to Moody's loss-given-default (LGD) methodology. That
methodology indicates the first lien senior secured debt and
second lien senior secured debt would normally be rated Ba3 and B3
respectively. Moody's has applied a one notch override down to
this outcome. The override considers that rising discount rates
and the implementation of recent pension amendments may results in
a reduction to the underfunded pension burden (about $3 billion on
an accounting basis at year end 2012) which would reduce the lift
to the instrument ratings.

Moody's uses its estimates of current market value when assessing
the loan-to-value ("LTVs") of an enhanced equipment trust
certificate ("EETC") financing. Moody's estimates the peak LTVs of
the A, B and C tranches at about 52%, 74%, and 87%, respectively.
The peak LTVs are expected to occur at the first distribution date
of May 15, 2014.The EETC ratings also reflect Moody's opinion of
the importance of the five Boeing B777-300ER aircraft that
collateralize the transaction to the company's long-haul network
strategy, the international interests subject to the Cape Town
Convention and the support of the Class A and Class B liquidity
facilities.

The stable ratings outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Air
Canada's earnings and debt levels will remain relatively flat
through 2015 such that its leverage remains between 6.5-7x.

An upgrade of Air Canada's CFR could occur if adjusted leverage is
sustained below 6x and cash is maintained above 15% of revenues.
Downward rating pressure on Air Canada's CFR could occur if Debt/
EBITDA is forecast to rise above 8x or should cash trend towards
10% of revenues.

Headquartered in Saint-Laurent, Quebec, Air Canada is the largest
provider of scheduled passenger services in Canada. Revenues for
2012 were approximately $12 billion.

took delivery of the first Airbus A321 Transcontinental aircraft,
complete with fully lie-flat First and Business Class seats.  The
new aircraft is scheduled to enter service next year, making
American the only U.S. carrier to offer customers more choices
with a three-class configuration when flying between New York and
Los Angeles, and New York and San Francisco.

"As the only airline to offer a three-class transcontinental
service, we're delivering on what our customers flying between
New York and the West Coast value," said Virasb Vahidi,
American's Chief Commercial Officer.  "With fully lie-flat seats
in the premium cabins, new menu options, and enhanced amenities,
the A321T aircraft allows us to provide our customers with
amenities that, until now, have traditionally been reserved for
those traveling internationally."

American will begin operating the A321T between New York's John F.
Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Los Angeles International
Airport (LAX) in January.  The aircraft will initially operate two
of American's daily flights between JFK and LAX and will operate
all frequencies between the two airports in June, when American
increases its frequencies to 13 daily flights.  The A321T will
also begin flying between JFK and San Francisco International
Airport (SFO) in March 2014 and will operate all frequencies
between the two airports in June, when American increases its
frequencies to five daily flights.

On the road to building a younger and more modern fleet, American
plans to take delivery of nearly 60 new aircraft total by the end
of the year, including new Boeing 777-300ERs, Boeing 737-800s,
Airbus A319s and Airbus A321Ts.  The airline will continue its
fleet renewal program in 2014 with more new aircraft deliveries,
including the Boeing 787, which is scheduled to join American's
fleet late next year.

ARMORWORKS ENTERPRISES: Independent Rep Defends Milbank Hiring
--------------------------------------------------------------
Grant Lyon, the Court-appointed independent debtor representative,
responded to the objection filed by Armorworks Enterprises, LLC,
et al., and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, to the
IDR's application to employ Paul S. Aronzon, Esq., and the law
firm of Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP, as his special
counsel.

The IDR asserted that, among other things:

   a. the proposed scope of Milbank's services is tied to the
      scope of authority granted to the IDR and, thus,
      appropriate;

   b. The IDR's retention of out-of-state counsel is not
      prohibited by any applicable precedent and will not result
      in duplication of efforts; and

   c. Milbank's retention nunc pro tunc to the date of appointment
      of the IDR is reasonable and appropriate.

The IDR added that prior to the filing of the Milbank employment
application, the IDR, through Milbank, previewed the proposed
modifications of the DIP Order with counsel to the DIP lender.
Although the DIP lender has not formally consented, the IDR and
Milbank are unaware of any objection by the DIP lender to the
proposed modifications.

The Debtors and the Committee, in their statement of position,
said there is no provision in the protocol order issued by the
Court for separate counsel on the IDR's behalf, and the
application is not authorized under the protocol order.
Accordingly, the Debtors want to clarify their position regarding
the IDR's role in the case.

The IDR sought entry of an order (a) authorizing the IDR to retain
Milbank, at the expense of the Debtors' estates, to provide legal
services in connection with the IDR's rights, duties, tasks and
obligations under the Protocol Order and the Protocol, subject to
and in compliance with, the applicable provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules, Local Rules and the U.S.
Trustee Guidelines, and (b) clarifying that Milbank's
communications with the IDR will be subject to the attorney-client
privilege, the attorney work-product doctrine and any other
applicable privileges that may apply to Milbank and the IDR in
connection with Milbank's representation of the Independent Debtor
Representative, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable
law.

In addition, the IDR requested that the DIP order be appropriately
modified to include Milbank's fees and expenses, as administrative
expenses of the estate, within the definition and scope of the
carve-out and the professionals' carve-out as those terms are used
in, and subject to, the DIP Order.

According to the IDR, Milbank will, among other things:

   a) advise the IDR in connection with his various rights,
      duties, tasks and obligations as set forth in the protocol
      order and the protocol, as each may be amended or modified
      from time to time, including, but not limited, to a
      potential sale of all or a portion of the Debtors'
      businesses and assets; and

   b) assist the IDR in performing all of his various rights,
      duties, tasks and obligations as set forth in the protocol
      order and the protocol, as each may be amended or modified
      from time to time, including, but not limited, to a
      potential sale of all or a portion of the Debtors'
      businesses and assets.

Milbank will be compensated at its standard hourly rates, as:

         Partners                            $925 - $1,160
         Of Counsel                          $845 - $1,045
         Associates and Senior Attorneys     $375 -   $780
         Legal Assistants                    $135 -   $305

To the best of the IDR's knowledge, Milbank is a "disinterested
person" as that term is defined in Section 101(14) of the
Bankruptcy Code

ATLANTIC COAST: Offering $42 Million Worth of Common Shares
-----------------------------------------------------------
Atlantic Coast Financial Corporation, the holding company for
Atlantic Coast Bank, has commenced an underwritten public offering
of $42 million of its common stock.  FBR Capital Markets & Co. is
acting as the sole book-running manager for the offering.  The
Company expects to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to
purchase up to an additional 15 percent of the shares of common
stock sold, solely to cover over-allotments, if any.  The offering
is subject to market conditions, and there can be no assurance as
to whether or when the offering may be completed.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for
general corporate purposes, including contributing substantially
all of the net proceeds of the offering to the Bank to maintain
capital ratios at required levels and to support growth in the

                       About Atlantic Coast

Jacksonville, Florida-based Atlantic Coast Financial Corporation
is the holding company for Atlantic Coast Bank, a federally
chartered and insured stock savings bank.  It is a community-
oriented financial institution serving northeastern Florida and
southeastern Georgia markets through 12 locations, with a focus on
the Jacksonville metropolitan area.

The Company reported a net loss of $6.66 million on $33.50 million
of total interest and dividend income for the year ended Dec. 31,
2012, as compared with a net loss of $10.28 million on $38.28
million of total interest and dividend income in 2011.  Total
assets were $714.1 million at Sept. 30, 2013, compared
with $772.6 million at Dec. 31, 2012, as the Company has
continued to manage asset size consistent with its overall
capital management strategy.

As of Sept. 30, 2013, Atlantic Coast had $714.11 million in total
assets, $684.23 million in total liabilities and $29.87 million in
total stockholders' equity.

McGladrey LLP, in Jacksonville, Florida, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent auditors noted that the
Company has suffered recurring losses from operations that have
adversely impacted capital at Atlantic Coast Bank.  The failure to
comply with the regulatory consent order may result in Atlantic
Coast Bank being deemed undercapitalized for purposes of the
consent order and additional corrective actions being imposed that
could adversely impact the Company's operations.  This raises
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.


ATP OIL: Has Until April 30 to Decide on Unexpired Leases
---------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Marvin Isgur of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Texas extended until April 30, 2014, ATP Oil
& Gas Corporation's deadline to assume or reject office leases.

On Oct. 17, 2013, the Court approved an asset purchase agreement
pursuant to which Bennu Oil and Gas LLC purchased certain shelf
and deepwater assets from the Debtor.  In connection with the APA,
Bennu is in the process of determining whether it will assume or
reject certain of the Debtor's unexpired leases.

According to the Debtor, extension of the lease decision deadline
will provide Bennu time to transition the operations it acquired
pursuant to the APA at the Debtor's current and long-time office
location.  The extension will also provide Bennu time to
determine, based on its business operations and needs, whether to
continue with the Office Leases, either on their current or
amended terms, or move to a new location.

Meanwhile, the Bankruptcy Court was slated to convene a hearing on
Nov. 21, 2013, at 1:30 p.m. to consider approval of a stipulation
extending ATP Oil & Gas' deadline to assume or reject certain of
its unexpired leases of nonresidential property.  The Debtor and
the U.S. Department of the Interior has stipulated to extend the
current 365(d)(4) deadline (i) for the 363 Sale Leases to and
including Feb. 28, 2014; and (ii) for the other remaining leases
to and including Dec. 31, 2013, all without prejudice to the
Debtor's right to seek further extensions.

The Debtor and DOI are party to certain unexpired real estate
leases, right of ways, and right of uses and easements.  The
remaining unexpired leases consist of (a) those Leases, ROWs and,
RUEs that are the subject of the Debtor's pending 363 sale of
assets to Bennu, for which the Court granted final approval by
order dated Oct. 17, 2013; (b) other Leases, RUEs and ROWs for
which the Debtor is pursuing transactions that may result in their
assignment to predecessors in title on such properties or their
designees; and (c) the other remaining unexpired leases and that
will be deemed rejected by agreement of the Debtor and the DOI
following the expiration of the Current 365(d)(4) deadline.

CAMCO FINANCIAL: James Huston Held 8.6% Equity Stake at Nov. 14
---------------------------------------------------------------
In an amended Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission, James E. Huston disclosed that as of
Nov. 14, 2013, he beneficially owned 1,268,046 shares of common
stock of Camco Financial Corporation representing 8.6 percent of
the shares outstanding.  A copy of the regulatory filing is
available for free at http://is.gd/FF5G1S

                       About Camco Financial

Cambridge, Ohio-based Camco Financial Corporation is a bank
holding company that was organized under Delaware law in 1970.
Camco is engaged in the financial services business in Ohio,
Kentucky and West Virginia, through its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Advantage Bank, an Ohio bank.  On March 31, 2011, Camco divested
activities related to Camco Title Agency and decertified as a
financial holding company.  Camco remains a bank holding company
and continues to be regulated by the Federal Reserve Board.

Plante & Moran PLLC, in Auburn Hills, Michigan, noted that the
Corporation's bank subsidiary is not in compliance with revised
minimum regulatory capital requirements under a formal regulatory
agreement with the banking regulators, and that failure to comply
with the regulatory agreement may result in additional regulatory
enforcement actions.

Camco's wholly-owned subsidiary Advantage Bank's Tier 1 capital
does not meet the requirements set forth in the 2012 Consent
Order.  As a result, the Corporation will need to increase capital
levels.

The Corporation reported net earnings of $4.2 million on net
interest income (before provision for loan losses) of
$23.9 million in 2012, compared with net earnings of $214,000 on
net interest income of $214,000 on net interest income (before
provision for loan losses) of $25.9 million in 2011.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2013, showed
$760.59 million in total assets, $693.31 million in total
liabilities, and $67.28 million in total stockholders' equity.

                     About Capitol Bancorp

Capitol Bancorp Ltd. and Financial Commerce Corporation filed
voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy petitions (Bankr. E.D. Mich. Case
Nos. 12-58409 and 12-58406) on Aug. 9, 2012.

Capitol Bancorp -- http://www.capitolbancorp.com/-- is a
community banking company with a network of individual banks and
bank operations in 10 states and total consolidated assets of
roughly $2.0 billion as of June 30, 2012.  CBC owns roughly 97% of
FCC, with a number of CBC affiliates owning the remainder.  FCC,
in turn, is the holding company for five of the banks in CBC's
network.  CBC is registered as a bank holding company under the
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, 12 U.S.C. Sec. 1841,
et seq., and trades on the OTCQB under the symbol "CBCR."

Lawyers at Honigman Miller Schwartz and Cohn LLP represent the
Debtors as counsel.  John A. Simon, Esq., at Foley & Lardner LLP,
represents the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors as
counsel.

In its petition, Capitol Bancorp scheduled $112,634,112 in total
assets and $195,644,527 in total liabilities.  The petitions were
signed by Cristin K. Reid, corporate president.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2012, showed
$1.749 billion in total assets, $1.891 billion in total
liabilities, and a stockholders' deficit of $141.8 million.

Prepetition, the Debtor arranged a reorganization plan that was
accepted by the requisite majorities of creditors and equity
holders in all classes.  Problems arose when affiliates of
Valstone Partners LLC declined to proceed with a tentative
agreement to fund the reorganization by paying $50 million for
common and preferred stock while buying $207 million in face
amount of defaulted commercial and residential mortgages.


CARGO TRANSPORTATION: Conduit Cleared From Preferential Transfers
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Judge Michael G. Williamson granted the request to
dismiss the lawsuit commenced by Larry S. Hyman, the plan trustee
for Cargo Transportation Services, Inc., against the law firm of
Bast Amron LLP to recover certain preferential transfers, saying
the Defendant was a mere conduit for the preferential transfers
and otherwise acted in good faith.

Between Oct. 22, 2010 and Dec. 31, 2010, the debtor made six
transfers in the amount of $5,000 for total alleged preferences of
$30,000.  The debtor filed its Chapter 11 petition on January 12,
2011.  Therefore, each of the six transfers in question was made
within 90 days of the debtor's bankruptcy petition.

Bast Amron received the transfers in its capacity as counsel for
the plan trustee in another confirmed Chapter 11 case involving a
debtor by the name of Solar Cosmetics Labs, Inc.  In that case,
the Law Firm represented the plan trustee of the Solar Cosmetics
Liquidating Trust.

Cargo Transportation was a defendant in a preference action
brought by the SC Trust that was settled for $150,000.  The
settlement amount was divided into 29 payments: an initial payment
in the amount of $10,000 and 28 subsequent payments of $5,000 to
be paid every two weeks.  Under the terms of the settlement, the
settlement payments were to be paid to the Law Firm's trust
account. The settlement was approved by the bankruptcy court in
the Solar Cosmetics case.

Along with the settlement, the bankruptcy court also approved a
contingency fee arrangement which called for specific payment of
the contingency fee equal to one-third of the settlement amount.
Under the contingency fee arrangement approved by the bankruptcy
court in the Solar Cosmetics case, the Law Firm was to be paid
directly from the recoveries made from the preference actions
brought on behalf of the SC Trust.

In accordance with the settlement, Cargo Transportation
transferred six payments amounting to $30,000 to the Law Firm's
trust account during the preference period. The settlement funds
were then transferred from the Law Firm's trust account to its
operating account. Fees that had been approved in the Solar
Cosmetics Chapter 11 case were then paid, and the balance was
transferred to the SC Trust.

According to the Law Firm, it never exercised any legal control
over the settlement funds received. Instead, the Law Firm merely
held the funds in trust for delivery to the SC Trust in accordance
with orders of the bankruptcy court in the Solar Cosmetics case,
which controlled every step of the process in approving and
implementing the terms of the settlement. The Law Firm did not
have the ability to direct where the funds would be transferred
other than through the direction of the plan trustee of the SC
Trust and with approval of the bankruptcy court in the Solar
Cosmetics case.

CARIBBEAN INTERNATIONAL: Buyers Save Newspaper From Shutdown
------------------------------------------------------------
Katy Stech, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reported that an
investor group has agreed to purchase the struggling El Vocero
newspaper in Puerto Rico out of bankruptcy with an offer valued at
$1.9 million, according to documents filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in Old San Juan.

According to the report, the buyers, a group called Publi-
Inversiones de Puerto Rico Inc., were the only qualified bidders
to show up at a Nov. 22 auction held by the newspaper's trustee.
The investors were reportedly brought together by a second cousin
of newspaper president Peter Miller.

The sale of the newspaper, which faced liquidation without a
rescue, is expected to be finalized on Nov. 30, the report said.

In earlier court papers, newspaper attorneys warned that a
shutdown of the publication, which competes with the island's El
Nuevo Dia newspaper, would leave the island's media scene with
fewer voices, the report related.

"Should El Vocero disappear, it would essentially mean that Puerto
Rico would be receiving its news from only one daily newspaper,
certainly not something that anyone desires," the newspaper's
attorneys said in earlier court papers, the report cited.

banks regarding the restructuring of these loans for repayment but
has not yet agreed on specific terms.  There can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to successfully work out a repayment
plan or otherwise fulfill its obligations under the loans.  The
uncertainty surrounding the successful restructuring of our bank
loans and our current lack of readily available liquidity provided
by other third party sources raise substantial doubt about our
ability to continue as a going concern," the Company said in its
quarterly report.

CHRISTIAN BROTHERS: Objections Lodged Against Plan Outline
----------------------------------------------------------
Brother Rice High School, Inc., by its counsel Sean C. Southard,
Esq., at Klestadt & Winters, LLP, filed a limited objection,
seeking to clarify that the Disclosure Statement adequately
describes the terms of the Chapter 11 Plan proposed by The
Christian Brothers' Institute, et al., and the Official Committee
of Unsecured Creditors dated Aug. 22, 2013.

Brother Rice said it found certain aspects of the Plan confusing
and unclear.  For example, if certain defined terms are read
broadly, the Plan could be read to preclude Brother Rice from ever
being the beneficiary of the channeling injunction, but that
notion runs counter to various settlement discussions which have
taken place previously, well as current efforts at mediation.

Michael A. Patterson, Esq., at Patterson Buchanan Fobes & Leitch,
Inc., P.S. -- on behalf of the Corporation of the Catholic
Archbishop of Seattle, party-in-interest; Interstate Fire &
Casualty Company, party-in-interest; Pacific Indemnity Company,
party-in-interest -- said the parties  do not object to the
approval of the Debtors' and the Committee's Disclosure Statement.
However, they expressly reserve and do not waive any and all
objections they may have to confirmation of the proposed Joint
Plan, including any amendments, modifications, or alterations
thereof.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 27, 2013, the
Debtors and the Committee have a plan made possible following an
"allocation plan" negotiated with 75% of sexual abuse claimants.
The Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization dated Aug. 22, 2013,
has the Debtors and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
as co-proponents.

According to the explanatory disclosure statement, holders of
sexual abuse claims (Class 4) will have the option of being
treated in one of two ways: (i) payment from the Trust utilizing
the allocation plan or (ii) commencing or continuing litigation
against the Debtors in a court of appropriate jurisdiction.
Holders of Class 4 Claims must make an election of their treatment
on their ballot.  Absent any election, the holder will be paid in
accordance with the allocation plan.  Holders of allowed sexual
abuse claims who elect the allocation plan alternative will be
paid no less than $5,000.

Holders of allowed fraud claims (Class 5) will receive $10,000
from the trust.  Holders of allowed physical abuse claims (Class
6) will receive $500.  Holders of Allowed General Unsecured Claims
(Class 8) will receive their pro rata share of $50,000.

Holders of allowed Penalty Claims (Class 9), and abuse related
contingent contribution/reimbursement/indemnity claims (Class 10)
will receive no distribution under the Plan.  Classes 9 and 10 are
impaired and deemed to reject the Plan.

The Trust is a "qualified settlement fund" ("QSF") within the
meaning Treasury Regulations enacted under Internal Revenue Code
Section 486B(g).  The cash required to fund the Trust, which will
pay holders of Class 4, 5 and 6 Claims, will come from

    (i) $13.442 million of cash from the Debtors

   (ii) $3.2 million of cash from Providence Washington
        Insurance Co.,

  (iii) sales of real property owned by the Debtors,

   (iv) the prosecution and settlement of lawsuits which are
        property of the Debtors' Estates, and

    (v) certain funds that may be received from Non-Settling
        Insurers and Participating Parties.

The cash required to fund payments for Professional Fees and
Classes 3 and 8 Claims will come from the Debtors and/or the
Reorganized Debtors.

CLEAR CHANNEL: Fitch Rates Additional Exchange Notes at 'CC/RR6'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned a 'CC/RR6' rating to Clear Channel
Communications, Inc.'s proposed additional exchange notes due
February 2021 and assigned a 'CCC/RR4' to the proposed term loan
E. Fitch has also affirmed the Issuer Default Ratings and issue
ratings of Clear Channel and Clear Channel Worldwide Holdings,
Inc. (CCWH). The Rating Outlook for Clear Channel has been revised
to Negative from Stable. The Rating Outlook for CCWH's IDR remains
Stable. A full list of rating actions follows at the end of this
release.

On Nov. 25, 2013, Clear Channel announced it is offering to
exchange any and all of the $448 million in 10.75% cash pay
unsecured notes and the $340 million in 11%/11.75% paid in kind
(PIK) toggle unsecured notes (collectively the Outstanding Notes)
with new exchange notes that expire in February 2021. These notes
are intended to be issued as additional notes under the indenture
governing the existing 2021 notes that were issued in June 2013
and will be treated as a single class with the existing 2021 notes
for all purposes under the indenture. The new notes will carry a
12% per annum cash coupon plus a 2% per annum PIK. The notes will
have materially the same covenant provisions and benefit from the
same subordinated guarantee that support the Outstanding Notes.
The exchange notes will rank pari passu with the existing
Outstanding Notes, if any remain outstanding post the exchange.
The notes will be subordinated to the credit facilities and PGNs,
and will rank senior to the pre-LBO legacy notes.

Bond holders who tender prior to the early termination date (Dec.
9, 2013) will receive $1,100 in new notes for every $1,000 in
Outstanding Notes tendered, plus $20 in cash. Also, $375 million
or more in aggregate Outstanding Notes are tendered, an additional
$20 per $1,000 will be paid in cash to tendering bondholders. As
proposed, the transaction would have an immaterial impact on
leverage (if all notes tender prior to the early termination debt,
absolute debt would increase approximately $79 million). Fitch
estimates that total leverage was 11.6x at Sept. 30, 2013, with
secured leverage of 7.3x.

In addition, Clear Channel announced that it is seeking to extend
$1 billion in aggregate principal amount of term loans B and C due
January 2016 to July 2019. The new extended term loans (term loan
E) will have the same security and guarantee package as the
outstanding term loans (B, C and D). The term loan extension is
subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions,
including the submission for extension of at least $1 billion in
aggregate principal amount of outstanding term loans B and C. The
term loan E's are expected to bear a price of Libor + 750 basis
points (bps). This would be 385 bps higher than the term loan B
and Cs current pricing.

The aforementioned transactions materially reduce the 2016
maturities. Fitch believes the company has sufficient liquidity
(including cash on hand, monetization of repurchased and
outstanding notes, and asset sales) to meet its debt service
obligations. However, both transactions will result in increased
interest cost; Fitch estimates approximately $50 million to $55
million (this in addition to the approximately $165 million
increase in interest cost from the May/June 2013 note exchange and
term loan extention). Fitch expects free cash flow (FCF) will be
negative over the next few years. The ratings and Negative Outlook
reflect the limited room within the credit profile to endure any
material deterioration in operations.

Fitch does not expect a material amount of absolute debt reduction
over the next several years, given Fitch's expected FCF. Instead,
Fitch expects the company to continue to focus on extending or
repaying its term loans via issuance at Clear Channel and CCOH.

As of Sept. 30, 2013, Clear Channel had approximately $20 billion
in consolidated debt. Debt held at Clear Channel was $15.7 billion
and consisted of:

-- $8.2 billion secured term loans ($3.2 billion in 2016 and $5
    billion in 2019);

-- $4.3 billion secured PGNs, maturing 2019-2021;

-- $247 million ABL facility;

-- $448 million senior unsecured 10.75% cash pay notes, maturing
    August 2016;

-- $340 million senior unsecured 11%/11.75% PIK toggle notes,
    maturing August 2016;

-- $782 million in senior unsecured 12% cash pay / 2% PIK notes
    maturing in February 2021

-- $1.4 billion senior unsecured legacy notes, with maturities of
    2014-2027.

Debt held at CCWH was $4.9 billion and consisted of:

-- $2.7 billion in senior unsecured 6.5% notes due in 2022;
-- $2.2 billion in subordinated 7.625% notes due 2020.

Liquidity

At Sept. 30, 2013, Clear Channel had $292 million of cash,
excluding $419 million of cash held at CCOH. There is $945 million
of CCOH funds swept to Clear Channel for cash management purposes.
Clear Channel can access these funds and use them at its
discretion, although they are due to CCOH on demand.

Backup liquidity consists of a $535 million ABL facility (subject
to an undisclosed borrowing base), $247 million outstanding as of
Sept. 30, 2013. The ABL facility matures in December 2017 and is
subject to springing maturities (with the earliest springing date
starting in October 2015).

Security and Guarantees

The bank debt and PGNs are secured by the capital stock of Clear
Channel, Clear Channel's non-broadcasting assets (non-principal
property), and a second priority lien on the broadcasting
receivables that securitize the ABL facility.

The bank debt and secured notes are guaranteed on a senior basis
by Clear Channel Capital I, Inc. (holding company of Clear
Channel), and by Clear Channel's wholly owned domestic
subsidiaries. There is no guarantee from CCOH or its subsidiaries.
The Outstanding Notes and the proposed exchange notes benefit from
a guarantee from the same entities, although it is contractually
subordinated to the secured debt guarantees. The legacy notes are
not guaranteed.

Recovery Ratings

Clear Channel's Recovery Ratings reflect Fitch's expectation that
the enterprise value of the company will be maximized in a
restructuring scenario (going concern), rather than a liquidation.
Fitch employs a 6x distressed enterprise value multiple reflecting
the value of the company's radio broadcasting licenses in top U.S.
markets. Fitch applies a 20% discount to radio EBITDA. Fitch
assumes that Clear Channel has maximized the debt-funded dividends
from CCOH and used the proceeds to repay bank debt. Additionally,
Fitch assumes that Clear Channel would receive 88% of the value of
a sale of CCOH after the CCOH creditors had been repaid. Fitch
estimates the adjusted distressed enterprise valuation in
restructuring to be approximately $7 billion.

The 'CCC/RR4' rating for the bank debt and secured notes reflect
Fitch's estimate for a recovery range of 31%-50%. Fitch expects no
recovery for the senior unsecured legacy notes, LBO notes, and
exchange notes due to their position below the banks in the
capital structure, and they are assigned 'RR6'. However, Fitch
rates the LBO and exchange notes 'CC' and the legacy notes 'C',
given the formers' receipt of a subordinated guarantee and the
latters' lack thereof.

CCOH's Recovery Ratings also reflect Fitch's expectation that
enterprise value would be maximized as a going concern. Fitch
stresses outdoor EBITDA by 15%, and applies a 7x valuation
multiple. Fitch estimates the enterprise value would be $4
billion. This indicates 100% recovery for the unsecured notes.
However, Fitch notches the debt up only two notches from the IDR
given the unsecured nature of the debt. In Fitch's analysis, the
subordinated notes recover in the 31% to 50% 'RR4' range, leading
to no notching from the IDR.

Key Rating Drivers:

Fitch's ratings concerns center on the company's highly leveraged
capital structure, with significant maturities in 2016; the
considerable and growing interest burden that is expected to
generate negative FCF in the near term; technological threats and
secular pressures in radio broadcasting; and the company's
exposure to cyclical advertising revenue.

The ratings are supported by the company's leading position in
both the outdoor and radio industries, as well as the positive
fundamentals and digital opportunities in the outdoor advertising
space.

Rating Sensitivities:

Negative: An inability to extend maturities would result in a
downgrade. This inability may derive from a prolonged consolidated
cash burn, whether driven by cyclical or secular pressures,
reducing Clear Channel's ability to fund debt service and near-
term maturities. Additionally, cyclical or secular pressures on
operating results that further weaken credit metrics could result
in negative rating pressure. Lastly, indications that a DDE is
probable in the near term would also drive a downgrade.

Positive: The current Rating Outlook is Negative. As a result,
Fitch's sensitivities do not currently anticipate a rating
upgrade.

Fitch has affirmed the following ratings:

Clear Channel

-- Long-term IDR at 'CCC';
-- Senior secured term loans at 'CCC/RR4';
-- Senior secured priority guarantee notes at 'CCC/RR4';
-- Senior unsecured LBO notes and exchange notes due 2021 at
   'CC/RR6';
-- Senior unsecured legacy notes at 'C/RR6'.
-- Outlook is Negative

Clear Channel Worldwide Holdings, Inc.

-- Long-term IDR at 'B';
-- Senior unsecured notes at 'BB-/RR2';
-- Senior subordinated notes at 'B/RR4'.
-- Outlook is Stable

                  About Coates International

Based in Wall Township, N.J., Coates International, Ltd.
(OTC BB: COTE) -- http://www.coatesengine.com/-- was incorporated
on August 31, 1988, for the purpose of researching, patenting and
manufacturing technology associated with a spherical rotary valve
system for internal combustion engines.  This technology was
developed over a period of 15 years by Mr. George J. Coates, who
is the President and Chairman of the Board of the Company.

The Coates Spherical Rotary Valve System (CSRV) represents a
revolutionary departure from the conventional poppet valve.  It
changes the means of delivering the air and fuel mixture to the
firing chamber of an internal combustion engine and of expelling
the exhaust produced when the mixture ignites.

Coates International disclosed a net loss of $4.53 million on $0
of sales for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012, as compared with a net
loss of $2.99 million on $125,000 of sales for the year ended Dec.
31, 2011.

Cowan, Gunteski & Co., P.A., in Tinton Falls, New Jersey, issued a
"going concern" qualification on the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012, citing negative cash
flows from operations, recurring losses from operations, and a
stockholders' deficiency that raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.


CODA HOLDINGS: Plan Confirmation Hearing Adjourned to Jan. 21
-------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware adjourned
to Jan. 21, 2014, at 10:00 a.m., the hearing to consider
confirmation of the Second Amended Plan of Liquidation of ADOC
Holdings, Inc., formerly known as Coda Holdings, Inc., et al.
Objections to the Plan, if any, are due Jan. 14 at 4:00 p.m.

Ballots accepting or rejecting the Plan are due Jan. 14 at 5:00
p.m.

The Plan was facilitated by a settlement under which the
creditors' committee permitted the sale of the non-auto business
to an insider group including an affiliate of Fortress Investment
Group LLC.  Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg
News, said the sale, completed in June, was said to be worth $25
million, although the buyer paid only $1.7 million in cash.  The
remainder represented the loan financing the Chapter 11 case and
pre-bankruptcy secured debt.

The Bloomberg report said the settlement enabled the company to
draw down $1.9 million remaining on the loan financing the Chapter
11 case begun May 1.  When the sale was completed, Los Angeles-
based Coda changed its name to Adoc Holdings Inc.  From cash
remaining after higher-priority claims are paid, the first
$500,000 goes to unsecured creditors.

The report relates that additional cash will be split, with
unsecured creditors receiving one-third and the purchasers two-
thirds.  The noteholders' deficiency claims won't share in the
portion for unsecured creditors.  There's a companion sharing
arrangement for proceeds from lawsuits.  Unsecured claims are
shown in the disclosure statement approved on Sept. 24 as totaling
around $23 million.  A Fortress affiliate is a holder of $15.8
million of the notes to be exchanged for ownership and was one of
the providers of bankruptcy financing.  Coda sold only 100 Coda
Sedans, an electrically powered version of the Hafei Saibao, made
in China.  The buyers didn't acquire the car business, and will
concentrate on making stationary electric storage systems.

                        About CODA Holdings

Los Angeles, California-based CODA Energy --
http://www.codaenergy.com-- made an electric auto that was a
commercial failure.  The company marketed the Coda Sedan, which
sold only 100 copies.  It was an electrically powered version of
the Hafei Saibao, made in China.  After bankruptcy, Los Angeles-
based Coda intends to concentrate on making stationery electric-
storage systems.

CODA Holdings, Inc., Coda Energy LLC and three other affiliates
filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy (Bankr. D. Del. Lead Case No.
13-11153) on May 1, 2013, to enable the Company to complete a
sale, confirm a plan, and emerge from bankruptcy in a stronger
position to execute its new business plan.  The Company expects
the sale process to take 45 days to complete.

FCO MA CODA Holdings LLC, an affiliate of Fortress Investment
Group, is leading a consortium of lenders intending to provide DIP
financing to enable the Company's energy storage business to
remain fully operational during the restructuring process.  The
consortium, or its designee, will also as stalking horse bidder to
acquire the Company post-bankruptcy.  In addition, the Company
will seek to monetize value of its existing automotive business
assets.

CODA disclosed assets of $10 million to $50 million and
liabilities of less than $100 million.  Coda Automotive Inc.,
disclosed $24,950,641 in assets and $95,859,413 in liabilities as
of the Chapter 11 filing.  The Debtors have incurred prepetition a
significant amount of secured indebtedness: secured notes of with
principal in the amount of $59.1 million; term loans in the
principal amount of $12.6 million; and a bridge loan with $665,000
outstanding.  FCO and other bridge loan lenders have "enhanced
priority" over other secured noteholders that did not participate
in the bridge loans, pursuant to the intercreditor agreement.
Jeffrey M. Schlerf, Esq., John H. Strock, Esq., and L. John Bird,
Esq., at Fox Rothschild LLP are the proposed counsel for the
Debtors.

CODA's legal advisor in connection with the restructuring is White
& Case LLP.  Emerald Capital Advisors serves as its chief
restructuring officer and restructuring advisor, and Houlihan
Lokey serves as its investment banker for the restructuring.
Sidley Austin LLP is serving as FCO MA CODA Holdings LLC's legal
advisor.  Brent T. Robinson, Esq., at Robinson, Anthon & Tribe

DBSI INC: Examiner's Report Admissible in "Mathews" Suit
--------------------------------------------------------
The Court of Appeals of Maryland ruled that the report of the
bankruptcy examiner in DBSI Inc.'s Chapter 11 case is not
admissible under Maryland Rule 5-803(8), but may be admissible
under Rule 5-803(24) and may be an appropriate basis for an expert
opinion at trial under Rule 5-703.  The Appeals Court also said
the Circuit Court for Baltimore County appropriately reserved
judgment on the admissibility and use of a bankruptcy examiner's
report until it had additional information concerning the proposed
use of the report in the context of the trial.

In 2003, William H. Mathews, a retired school teacher and
librarian, had owned and managed his rental properties for more
than 40 years. At that time, he owned 11 rental properties near
the campus of Towson University; he rented those properties
primarily to students and faculty at the university. In response
to anticipated deleterious changes in local zoning laws, Mr.
Mathews decided to sell the properties. Ultimately, he was
referred to Stephen Weiss, a real estate professional. Mr. Weiss
was then employed by W. C. Pinkard & Co., the predecessor in
interest to Cassidy Turley Maryland, Inc.  Mr. Mathews retained
Cassidy Turley to market the properties, and in August 2004 the
properties were sold to Bob Ward Companies for approximately $4
million. Mr. Mathews paid approximately $176,000 to Cassidy Turley
as a commission.

To receive more favorable tax treatment of the proceeds of the
sale, Mr. Mathews sought to re-invest the proceeds in other real
estate shortly after the sale.  With Mr. Weiss' advice, Mr.
Mathews ultimately used much of the proceeds to purchase five
fractional interests in various commercial office buildings
located throughout the United States.  These fractional interests
were called "Tenants in Common Interests".  Mr. Weiss provided Mr.
Mathews with binders containing various documents that described
the particular TICs under consideration.

Each of the TICs in question was created by DBSI, Inc., or an
affiliated company.  DBSI would purchase real estate, typically an
office building, and divide it into TICs that it would then sell
to investors.  Investors in the TICs were required, as a condition
of the purchase, to agree to retain DBSI as property manager, in
return for which DBSI promised a specified annual rate of return
on the investment.  DBSI would locate sub-tenants who would occupy
the property and pay the rent that produced a revenue stream.
Under the property management agreement, replacement of DBSI as
property manager required a majority vote of all TIC owners of a
given piece of property, as well as indemnification of DBSI
against any and all claims, actions, costs, damages, liabilities,
deficiencies or expenses relating to the property. In the event
that DBSI was terminated as property manager, a unanimous vote by
the TIC owners was required to appoint a new manager. Under the
terms of a TIC agreement, there was no provision for direct
control of the property by the TIC owners.

Mr. Mathews received steady payments with respect to his TICs over
the next few years and sold one of them.  However, in 2008, things
changed.

In 2008, Mr. Mathews learned that DBSI would be suspending
payments for certain of the TICs. Mr. Mathews then contacted Mr.
Weiss, who, according to Mr. Mathews, assured him that payments
would resume and that he should not worry.  In November 2008, DBSI
filed a voluntary petition for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the
bankruptcy code.  All of the properties underlying Mr. Mathews'
TICs became the subject of foreclosure proceedings.

The bankruptcy court appointed an attorney from a prominent
Washington, D.C., law firm as an examiner to conduct an
investigation into DBSI.  The examiner's report describes a
downward spiral fueled by related party transactions, conflicts of
interest, growing debt disguised as equity, limited sources of
revenue, complex and sloppy accounting, and the misleading of
investors. Among other things, the report describes the structure
and marketing of the DBSI TICs. The bankruptcy court ultimately
made findings similar to those of the examiner in concluding that
many of DBSI's transactions were "either constructively or
actually fraudulent" and that it would be futile to attempt to
unravel many of the related party transactions.

At the time Mr. Mathews purchased his TICs, Cassidy Turley was
licensed by the Maryland Real Estate Commission as a real estate
broker. Neither Mr. Weiss nor Cassidy Turley was licensed under
the Maryland Securities Act to act as an investment adviser,
investment adviser representative, securities broker-dealer, or
agent.

Following the collapse of DBSI, the Securities Division of the
Maryland Attorney General's Office undertook an investigation of
the offer and sale of DBSI TICs in Maryland. In April 2009, the
Securities Division contacted Mr. Mathews as part of that
investigation. No action was ultimately taken by the Securities
Division against DBSI or Cassidy Turley, although Cassidy Turley
did refund to Mr. Mathews the fees and commissions it was paid in
connection with his TIC transactions. Federal authorities were
also conducting a parallel investigation.

On March 23, 2010, Mr. Mathews filed a complaint in the Circuit
Court for Baltimore County against Mr. Weiss and Cassidy Turley.
Mr. Mathews' complaint alleged that Cassidy Turley owed Mr.
Mathews legal and fiduciary duties to disclose material facts and
to act with the care and skill of a "professional financial
adviser." It alleged that Cassidy Turley had misled Mr. Mathews
concerning the suitability of the TIC investment for his financial
situation, the safety of the investment, and the soundness of
DBSI. It also alleged that Cassidy Turley had failed to inform him
of other material information, including its lack of research into
the investment, its receipt of a commission from the sale of the
TICs, and the risks associated with the investment. It alleged
that Cassidy Turley actively concealed its alleged wrongdoing from
him and lulled him into relying upon it, even after the DBSI
bankruptcy, until he was contacted by the Securities Division.

The complaint included common law tort claims for fraud,
constructive fraud, negligent misrepresentation, and negligence,
as well as a claim for breach of contract. It also included a
claim under the Maryland Securities Act, Maryland Code,
Corporations & Associations Article, ("CA") Sec. 11-703.

The parties conducted discovery. After the completion of
discovery, they filed cross-motions for summary judgment, as well
as motions in limine related to evidence anticipated to be offered
at trial.

The case is WILLIAM H. MATHEWS, v. CASSIDY TURLEY MARYLAND, INC.
ET AL., No. 51, September Term, 2012 (Md. App.).  A copy of the
Appeals Court's Nov. 26, 2013 Opinion is available at

                          About DBSI Inc.

Headquartered in Meridian, Idaho, DBSI Inc. and its affiliates
were engaged in numerous commercial real estate and non-real
estate projects and businesses.  On Nov. 10, 2008, and other
subsequent dates, DBSI and 180 of its affiliates filed for
Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D. Del. Lead Case No. 08-12687).
DBSI estimated assets and debts between $100 million and
$500 million as of the Chapter 11 filing.

Lawyers at Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor LLP represent the
Debtors as counsel.  The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
tapped Greenberg Traurig, LLP, as its bankruptcy counsel.
Kurtzman Carson Consultants LLC is the Debtors' notice claims and
balloting agent.

Joshua Hochberg, a former head of the Justice Department fraud
unit, served as an Examiner and called the seller and servicer of
fractional interests in commercial real estate an "elaborate shell
game" that "consistently operated at a loss" in his report
released in October 2009.  McKenna Long & Aldridge LLP was counsel
to the Examiner.

On Sept. 11, 2009, the Honorable Peter J. Walsh entered an Order
appointing James R. Zazzali as Chapter 11 trustee for the Debtors'
estates.  On Oct. 26, 2010, the trustee won confirmation of the
Second Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Liquidation for DBSI,
paving the way for it to pay creditors and avoid years of
expensive litigation over its complex web of affiliates.  The
plan, which was declared effective Oct. 29, 2010, was co-proposed
by DBSI's unsecured creditors committee.

Pursuant to the confirmed Chapter 11 plan, the DBSI Real Estate
Liquidating Trust was established as of the effective date and
certain of the Debtors' assets, including the Debtors' ownership
interest in Florissant Market Place was transferred to the RE
Trust.  Mr. Zazzali and Conrad Myers were appointed as the post-
confirmation trustees.  Messrs. Zazzali and Myers are represented
by lawyers at Blank Rime LLP and Gibbons P.C.


DEWEY & LEBOEUF: Trustee Seeks $21.8MM From DiCarmine & Sanders
---------------------------------------------------------------
Jennifer Smith, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reports that
the trustee liquidating Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP filed a $21.8 million
complaint Wednesday in bankruptcy court in Manhattan against two
of the firm's leaders, former Executive Director Stephen DiCarmine
and former Chief Financial Officer Joel Sanders.  The complaint
outlines a number of alleged financial irregularities at the firm
-- whose management is the focus of an ongoing criminal
investigation -- including $1.2 million loans to Mr. DiCarmine and
Mr. Sanders.  The suit seeks to claw back lavish compensation
packages the pair received in the years leading up to Dewey's 2012
collapse.  The suit alleges that "payments under the Employment
Contracts to DiCarmine and Sanders totaled $15,900,000 over six
years --with an opportunity for unlimited discretionary bonuses --
an astronomically generous arrangement for law firm
administrators, and far in excess of the reasonably equivalent
value of the services contracted for or provided."

WSJ says a lawyer for Mr. Sanders didn't respond to requests for
comment Thursday.  The report adds Austin Campriello, an attorney
for Mr. DiCarmine, defended his client, saying "No one worked
harder for Dewey & LeBoeuf than Stephen DiCarmine, and we will
fight vigorously in court any efforts to blame or punish him for
the firm's collapse."

                       About Dewey & LeBoeuf

Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP sought Chapter 11 bankruptcy (Bankr. S.D.N.Y.
Case No. 12-12321) to complete the wind-down of its operations.
The firm had struggled with high debt and partner defections.
Dewey disclosed debt of $245 million and assets of $193 million in
its chapter 11 filing late evening on May 29, 2012.

Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP operated as a prestigious, New York City-
based, law firm that traced its roots to the 2007 merger of Dewey
Ballantine LLP -- originally founded in 1909 as Root, Clark & Bird
-- and LeBoeuf, Lamb, Green & MacCrae LLP -- originally founded in
1929.  In recent years, more than 1,400 lawyers worked at the firm
in numerous domestic and foreign offices.

At its peak, Dewey employed about 2,000 people with 1,300 lawyers
in 25 offices across the globe.  When it filed for bankruptcy,
only 150 employees were left to complete the wind-down of the
business.

Dewey's offices in Hong Kong and Beijing are being wound down.
The partners of the separate partnership in England are in process
of winding down the business in London and Paris, and
administration proceedings in England were commenced May 28.  All
lawyers in the Madrid and Brussels offices have departed.  Nearly
all of the lawyers and staff of the Frankfurt office have
departed, and the remaining personnel are preparing for the
closure.  The firm's office in Sao Paulo, Brazil, is being
prepared for closure and the liquidation of the firm's local
affiliate.  The partners of the firm in the Johannesburg office,
South Africa, are planning to wind down the practice.

The firm's ownership interest in its practice in Warsaw, Poland,
was sold to the firm of Greenberg Traurig PA on May 11 for
$6 million.  The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp. took $2 million of
the proceeds as part of a settlement.

Judge Martin Glenn oversees the case.  Albert Togut, Esq., at
Togut, Segal & Segal LLP, represents the Debtor.  Epiq Bankruptcy
Solutions LLC serves as claims and notice agent.  The petition was
signed by Jonathan A. Mitchell, chief restructuring officer.

lenders under the Revolver Agreement, hired Kramer Levin Naftalis
& Frankel LLP.  JPMorgan, as Collateral Agent for the Revolver
Lenders and the Noteholders, hired FTI Consulting and Gulf
Atlantic Capital, as financial advisors.  The Noteholders hired
Bingham McCutchen LLP as counsel.

The U.S. Trustee formed two committees -- one to represent
unsecured creditors and the second to represent former Dewey
partners.  The creditors committee hired Brown Rudnick LLP led by
Edward S. Weisfelner, Esq., as counsel.  The Former Partners hired
Tracy L. Klestadt, Esq., and Sean C. Southard, Esq., at Klestadt &
Winters, LLP, as counsel.

FTI Consulting, Inc. was appointed secured lender trustee for the
Secured Lender Trust.  Alan Jacobs of AMJ Advisors LLC, was named
Dewey's liquidation trustee.  Scott E. Ratner, Esq., Frank A.
Oswald, Esq., David A. Paul, Esq., Steven S. Flores, Esq., at

court in February 2013 and implemented in March.  The plan created
a trust to collect and distribute remaining assets.  The firm
estimated that midpoint recoveries for secured and unsecured
creditors under the plan would be 58.4 percent and 9.1 percent,
respectively.

through salary and bonus payments before the firm entered
bankruptcy that ought to be returned to the estate.

EDISON MISSION: FTC Greenlights NRG's $2.6-Bil. Bankrupt Buy
------------------------------------------------------------
Law360 reported that the Federal Trade Commission on Nov. 27 gave
the thumbs-up to NRG Energy Inc.'s $2.6 billion purchase of
virtually all the assets of bankrupt Edison Mission Energy, which
will add nearly 8,000 megawatts of power generation to the
electricity giant's portfolio.

According to the report, the FTC said it had granted early
termination status to the deal, announced in October, under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act after the commission
and the U.S. Department of Justice's Antitrust Division determined
not to take any enforcement action during the waiting period.

EDISON MISSION: Court OKs CBA Extension Until December 2014
-----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois
authorized Edison Mission Energy, et al., to extend the collective
bargaining agreement between Debtor Midwest Generation EME, LLC,
and International Brotherhood of Electric Workers Local 15.

The Debtors, in their motion, stated that approximately 93 percent
of the Debtors' hourly employees are members of Local 15.  All of
these employees are employed pursuant to the CBA, which expires on
Dec. 31, 2013.

In this relation MWG and Local 15 leadership have engaged in arms-
length negotiations in an effort to come to terms on an extension
to the CBA, thereby avoiding the risk and uncertainty associated
with expiration and termination of the CBA.

Moreover, the transaction to sell substantially all of EME's
assets and interests in its subsidiaries to NRG Energy, Inc.,
contemplates an extension and ultimate assumption of the CBA as
part of a plan of reorganization that incorporates the NRG
transaction.

The key terms of the CBA extension are:

   Term:                  One year, until Dec. 31, 2014.

   Base Wages:            Unchanged. Current base wages are
                          approximately 108-110 percent of median
                          for the Central/Midwest region based on
                          market data.

   Incentive              Increase short-term incentive plan
   Compensation:          payment from a historical practice of 4
                          percent to 6 percent of base pay.  Cost
                          to company at "target" level
                          performance would be approximately
                          $850/employee for each 6-month
                          performance measurement period.

   Health/Welfare         Local 15 leadership has consented to
   Benefits:              certain changes, including basing the
                          employer subsidy on the 80/60 preferred
                          provider option.

   Ratification           $1,000/employee

EDISON MISSION: MWG May Grant Priority Liens on Bridge Loan
-----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois
authorized Midwest Generation, LLC, an affiliate of Edison Mission
Energy, et al., to grant first priority liens on unencumbered
assets, in connection with the MWG Bridge loan; and second
priority liens on encumbered assets, each to secure the MWG bridge
loan.

MWG sought authorization to grant the liens to Edison Mission
Energy in exchange for EME's provision of a delayed-draw term loan
facility to MWG.

The MWG Bridge Loan is necessary to satisfy MWG's liquidity
requirements as the parties work towards implementation of the NRG
Transaction and an assumption of the leveraged lease structure for
the Debtors' Powerton and Joliet facilities.

The MWG Bridge Loan is an essential component of the comprehensive
restructuring solution memorialized in the Plan Sponsor Agreement.

               The Material Terms of MWG Bridge Loan

Parties:                          MWG as Borrower
                                  EME as Lender

Amounts:                          $60 million; provided, however,
                                  that the foregoing will be
                                  subject to upward adjustments on
                                  a dollar-for-dollar basis to the
                                  extent of the Borrower's
                                  forbearance payments in respect
                                  of its obligations associated
                                  with the leveraged leases of its
                                  Powerton and Joliet Coal
                                  Facilities.

Maturity & Termination:           The earlier of the effective
                                  date of a plan of reorganization
                                  with respect to borrower and
                                  July 31, 2014.

Interest Rates:                   10 percent per annum

Fees:                             5 percent of the Commitment

On Nov. 1, 2013, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
notified, out of an abundance of caution, the Court of its
reservation of rights with respect to the Debtors' motion.  The
Committee said that it supports the relief requested in the motion

EPAZZ INC: Had $585,000 Net Loss in Third Quarter
-------------------------------------------------
EPAZZ, Inc., filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing a net loss
of $585,465 on $156,750 of revenue for the three months ended
Sept. 30, 2013, as compared with a net loss of $1.66 million on
$308,881 of revenue for the same period a year ago.

For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, the Company incurred a

a net loss of $1.77 million on $856,248 of revenue for the same
period during the prior year.

                          About EPAZZ Inc.

Chicago, Ill.-based EPAZZ, Inc., was incorporated in the State of
Illinois on March 23, 2000, to create software to help college
students organize their college information and resources.  The
idea behind the Company was that if the information and resources
provided by colleges and universities was better organized and
targeted toward each individual, the students would encounter a
personal experience with the college or university that could lead
to a lifetime relationship with the institution.  This concept is
already used by business software designed to retain relationships
with clients, employees, vendors and partners.

Epazz incurred a net loss of $1.90 million on $1.19 million of
revenue for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012, as compared with a net
loss of $336,862 on $735,972 of revenue for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2011.

M&K CPAS, PLLC, in Houston, Texas, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent auditors noted that
the Company has an accumulated deficit of $(4,114,756) and a
working capital deficit of $(681,561), which raises substantial
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

                        Bankruptcy Warning

"We cannot be certain that any such financing will be available on
acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when
needed could limit our ability to continue and expand our
business.  We intend to overcome the circumstances that impact our
ability to remain a going concern through a combination of the
commencement of additional revenues, of which there can be no
assurance, with interim cash flow deficiencies being addressed
through additional equity and debt financing.  Our ability to
obtain additional funding for the remainder of the 2012 year and
thereafter will determine our ability to continue as a going
concern.  There can be no assurances that these plans for
additional financing will be successful.  Failure to secure
additional financing in a timely manner to repay our obligations
and supply us sufficient funds to continue our business operations
and on favorable terms if and when needed in the future could have
a material adverse effect on our financial performance, results of
operations and stock price and require us to implement cost
reduction initiatives and curtail operations.  Furthermore,
additional equity financing may be dilutive to the holders of our
common stock, and debt financing, if available, may involve
restrictive covenants, and strategic relationships, if necessary
to raise additional funds, and may require that we relinquish
valuable rights.  In the event that we are unable to repay our
current and long-term obligations as they come due, we could be
forced to curtail or abandon our business operations, and/or file
for bankruptcy protection; the result of which would likely be
that our securities would decline in value and/or become
worthless," according to the Company's annual report for the
period ended Dec. 31, 2012.


EXIDE TECHNOLOGIES: Pacific Chloride Seeks Fire Damages
-------------------------------------------------------
Law360 reported that Pacific Chloride Inc. on Nov. 27 asked a
Delaware bankruptcy judge to lift Exide Technologies Inc.'s
automatic stay so it can seek reimbursement from insurers for some
$7.6 million in fire-related damages at a plant it leased to the
now-bankrupt battery maker.

According to the report, PCI, which leased its Shreveport, La.,
plant to the battery maker in 2000, contends it has not been
repaid for damages resulting from a January 2011 fire at the site
and seeks relief from the bankruptcy stay so it can pursue
reimbursement directly from Exide's insurers.

FIRST HORIZON: S&P Cuts ICR to 'BB+' Over Mortgage Claims Risk
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it lowered its long-
term issuer credit rating on First Horizon National Corp. to 'BB+'
from 'BBB-'.  S&P also lowered its long-term issuer credit rating
on the bank's operating subsidiary, First Tennessee Bank, to
'BBB-' from 'BBB' and the short-term issuer credit rating to 'A-3'
from 'A-2'.  The outlook on both entities is stable.

"The rating action reflects our view that First Horizon National
Corp.'s risk profile remains heightened because material
uncertainties remain about future mortgage repurchase risks and
litigation, which could impair earnings and, thus, limit capital
build," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Richard Zell.
Although FHN's capital ratios remain satisfactory, they have
declined since year-end 2011 as a result of an aggressive stock
buyback program (the repurchase of approximately $225 million of
common stock), an increased dividend payout, and modest net losses
during fiscal 2012 and year-to-date Sept. 30, 2013.  (Contributing
to the year-to-date net loss in 2013 was a $200 million repurchase
reserve in the third quarter.)  For example, FHN's tangible common
equity ratio declined to 7.82% as of Sept. 30, 2013, from 9.05% at
year-end 2011.  Additionally, we estimate that FHN's risk-adjusted
capital (RAC) ratio, as per our measurement, was 9.6% as of
Sept. 30, 2013, also down from levels that were more consistent
with an assessment of strong.  Positively, S&P expects that the
company will not resume share buybacks in the near term.  However,
S&P believes that the risk associated with mortgage-related
litigation could add pressure to capital ratios over the next few
years.  Therefore, S&P expects capital ratios will remain within
our "adequate" range of 7%-10%.

"The stable outlook reflects our view that currently adequate
capital levels could absorb potential mortgage repurchase claims
and litigation costs, that the bank will continue to report
moderate core earnings, and that nonperforming assets will
continue to decline," said Mr. Zell.

S&P could lower the rating if the bank's earnings weaken
significantly, if asset quality deteriorates substantially, with
no evidence of future abatement, or if the RAC ratio erodes to
below 7% on a sustainable basis.

Alternatively, S&P could raise the rating if it becomes convinced
that the risks associated with mortgage-related liabilities have
declined and are less likely to affect FHN's financial profile.
Additionally, FHN's performance would need to include conservative
capital management, continued moderate earnings, and satisfactory
asset quality.

                                          thereafter

At the behest of the Debtors, Judge Kevin Gross scheduled a
Dec. 10 hearing on the adequacy of information in the disclosure
statement explaining the terms of the Plan.  Objections are due
Dec. 9.

The Debtors have signed a deal to sell most of the assets to
Hybrid Tech Holdings LLC, absent higher and better offers.  The
Debtors believe a plan and solicitation process linked to the
parallel sale process provides an appropriate mechanism to
facilitate both the confirmation of a chapter 11 plan and the
ultimate distribution of creditor recoveries.

Hybrid Tech, which bought the Debtors' $165.5 million secured loan
made by the U.S. Department of Energy prepetition, is offering to
buy the assets in exchange for $75 million of that loan.  Hybrid
will also provide $725,000 in cash for distribution to creditors
under the liquidating Chapter 11 plan.  In addition, the buyer
will waive an $8 million loan to finance bankruptcy.

The Plan provides for a straightforward "pot plan" structure where
creditor recoveries are generally allocated by order of priority
from the Debtors' remaining, post-sale assets.

Under the terms of the Plan:

   -- Holders of administrative claims (estimated at $3.59
      million), priority tax claims ($1.37 million), and
      professional fee claims ($3.48 million) are unimpaired and
      will recover 100%.

   -- Hybrid will waive its claims on account of the DIP financing
      provided to the Debtors.

   -- Secured creditor Silicon Valley Bank ($6.6 million claim) is
      slated to take home $225,000 from the cash supplied by
      Hybrid Tech.

   -- The $168.5 million outstanding under the senior loan
      provided by the U.S. Department of Energy, which was
      purchased by Hybrid in October 2013, will be satisfied in
      exchange for Hybrid's credit bid for the assets.  Hybrid
      will waive its unsecured deficiency claim only if the
      unsecured creditors' class votes "yes" on the Plan.

   -- Unsecured creditors ($280 million) will share $500,000 from
      the cash supplied by Hybrid Tech, although only if the class
      votes for the plan.

   -- Holders of Sec. 510(b) claims and holders of interests in
      the Debtors won't receive anything.

The disclosure statement currently has blanks with respect to the
estimated percentage recoveries by Hybrid Tech, unsecured
creditors, and Silicon Valley Bank.

                    About Fisker Automotive

Fisker Automotive Holdings, Inc., developer of the Karma plug-in
hybrid electric sedan, filed a petition for Chapter 11 protection
(Bankr. D. Del. Case No. 13-13087) on Nov. 22, 2013, with plans
to sell the business to Hybrid Tech Holdings, LLC.

Fisker Automotive Holdings and debtor-affiliate Fisker Automotive
Inc. disclosed that they have entered into an asset purchase
agreement with Hybrid for the sale of substantially all of its
assets.

Fisker estimated assets of more than $100 million and listed debt
of $500 million in its bankruptcy petition.  The assets include an
assembly plant purchased for $21 million from General Motors Corp.
The plant never operated.  The cars were assembled in Finland.
Fisker now has 21 employees.

Fisker received a $529 million loan from the Department of
Energy's Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program
and drew down about $192 million before the department froze the
loan after Fisker failed to hit several development targets.  The
company defaulted on its loan in April 2013.

The Debtors have tapped Kirkland & Ellis LLP, as co-counsel;
Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP, as co-counsel; Beilinson
Advisory Group as restructuring advisors; and Rust Consulting/Omni
Bankruptcy, as notice and claims agent and administrative advisor.


FISKER AUTOMOTIVE: Jan. 3 Hearing on Private Sale to Hybrid
-----------------------------------------------------------
Fisker Automotive Holdings, Inc., et al., filed a motion to sell
substantially all assets to Hybrid Tech Holdings, LLC, without a
court-sanctioned competitive auction process.

The Debtors have signed a deal to sell substantially all assets to
Hybrid Tech in exchange for, among other things:

   (a) $75 million in the form of a credit bid of claims owned
       by Hybrid under the U.S. DOE senior loan;

   (b) Hybrid's agreement to waive approximately $4 million of
       DIP Facility Claims held by Hybrid or its affiliates under
       the Debtors' proposed postpetition financing; and

   (c) the assumption of customary liabilities.

In addition, Hybrid has committed to support the Debtors' proposed
chapter 11 plan by, among other things, funding up to
approximately $725,000 in creditor distributions pursuant to the
Plan.

The Debtors do not believe the cost and delay arising from a
competitive auction process or pursuing a potential transaction
with an entity other than Hybrid would be reasonably likely to
increase value for the estates, particularly given the extensive
prepetition marketing efforts conducted by both the Debtors and
DOE prior to the date hereof.

Prepetition, the Debtors marketed the assets to prospective
purchasers but were unable to reach definitive agreements with any
parties, again, largely due to funding issues.  In September, the
U.S. Department of Energy conducted a marketing process for its
interests in the senior loan with outstanding amount of $168.5
million.  Hybrid Tech emerged as the winning bidder at an auction
held on Oct. 11, 2013.

The Debtors believe Hybrid, as the Debtors' senior secured lender
following the DOE Loan Purchase, holds a material advantage in any
prospective sale process, particularly given Hybrid's rights under
Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Thus, given that a competitive auction process or pursuing a
potential transaction with a third party would be highly unlikely
to increase value for the Debtors' estates, the sale motion seeks
approval of a private sale.

Bankruptcy Judge Kevin Gross has scheduled a sale hearing on
Jan. 3, 2014, at 9:30 a.m., prevailing Eastern Time.  Objections
are due Dec. 27, 2013.

FISKER AUTOMOTIVE: $8-Mil. DIP Facility From Hybrid Wins Approval
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fisker Automotive Holdings, Inc., et al., have obtained approval
to access up to $1.7 million from the $8.14-million DIP financing
facility being offered by Hybrid Tech Holdings, LLC.

The Court's interim order entered Nov. 26 also allows the Debtors
to use cash collateral held by Silicon Valley Bank and Hybrid, as
assignee of the U.S. Department of Energy.

Judge Kevin Gross will convene a final hearing on Dec. 16, 2013,
at 9:30 a.m. to consider approval of the Debtors' access to the
amounts remaining in the DIP loan package.  Objections are due
Dec. 9, 2013, at 4:00 p.m.

The Debtors have successfully negotiated a multi-draw term loan
that generally provides:

    -- a multi-draw term loan of approximately $8.14 million
       secured by first priority priming liens on substantially
       all the Debtors' assets, subject only to liens that were
       senior to the liens of the prepetition lenders as of the
       Petition Date;

   -- interest payable at a rate of 10 percent plus 2 percent
      default interest, as applicable;

   -- borrowings and disbursements to be made pursuant to the
      terms of an agreed 12-week budget;

   -- an initial interim advance of approximately $1.7 million to
      be funded upon entry of the Interim DIP Order, followed by
      weekly borrowings after entry of the Final DIP Order;

   -- a scheduled maturity date of 90 days after the Petition Date
      or the consummation of the sale, with additional, customary
      events of default; and

   -- adequate protection for the Debtors' junior creditors
      (including Hybrid, as the successor in interest to the
      Debtors' former lending facility with the United States
      Department of Energy) in the form of second-priority
      replacement liens and superpriority claims.

Hybrid has agreed to waive $4 million of the claims arising under
the DIP Facility upon consummation of the Debtors' proposed sale
to Hybrid and that the balance of claims arising under the DIP
Facility will be waived upon the effective date of the Debtors'
chapter 11 plan.  In other words, the Debtors' proposed DIP
Facility will effectively be provided at no cost to these chapter
11 estates upon completion of the Debtors' proposed sale and
consummation of their chapter 11 plan, says counsel to the
Debtors, Laura Davis Jones, Esq., at Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones
LLP.

In addition, the Debtors do not believe that alternative sources
of financing are readily available -- if at all.  The Debtors do
not believe it would be prudent, or even possible, to administer
these chapter 11 estates on a "cash collateral" basis.

FISKER AUTOMOTIVE: Meeting to Form Creditors' Panel on Dec. 5
-------------------------------------------------------------
Roberta A. DeAngelis, United States Trustee for Region 3, will
hold an organizational meeting on December 5, 2013, at 11:00 a.m.
in the bankruptcy case of Fisker Automotive Holdings Inc., et al.
The meeting will be held at:

      DoubleTree Hotel Wilmington
      700 King Street, Salon C
      Wilmington, DE 19801

The sole purpose of the meeting will be to form a committee or
committees of unsecured creditors in the Debtors' case.

The organizational meeting is not the meeting of creditors
pursuant to Section 341 of the Bankruptcy Code.  A representative
of the Debtor, however, may attend the Organizational Meeting, and
provide background information regarding the bankruptcy cases.

To increase participation in the Chapter 11 proceeding, Section
1102 of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the United States
Trustee appoint a committee of unsecured creditors as soon as
practicable.  The Committee ordinarily consists of the persons,
willing to serve, that hold the seven largest unsecured claims
against the debtor of the kinds represented on the committee.
Section 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code provides that the Committee
may consult with the debtor, investigate the debtor and its
business operations and participate in the formulation of a plan
of reorganization.  The Committee may also perform other services
as are in the interests of the unsecured creditors whom it
represents.

FLETCHER INT'L: Trustee Has Key Settlement, Files Ch. 11 Plan
-------------------------------------------------------------
Richard J. Davis, the Chapter 11 trustee appointed in the
bankruptcy case of Fletcher International, Ltd., filed a proposed
Plan of Liquidation for the Debtor.

Under the Plan:

    * Holders of administrative claims, priority tax claims and
      secured claims are unimpaired and will recover 100% of their
      claims.

    * General unsecured creditors are impaired and each will have
      the option of receiving (a) a pro rata share of the
      "liquidation recoveries" or (ii) cash in full payment for
      its allowed claim of $10,000 or less.

    * Pursuant to the Investor Settlement, claims held by these
      parties will be compromised, settled, and allowed in these
      amounts:

           Claimant                                 Amount
           --------                                 ------
      Arbitrage and the Arbitrage JOLs        $110.0 million
      Leveraged and the Leveraged JOLs          $5.0 million
      Alpha and the Alpha JOLs                  $1.6 million

    * Claims of the Louisiana Pension Funds will be allowed in the
      amount of $3 million, provided that the Funds vote to accept
      the Plan.

    * All insider claims will be extinguished.

    * All equity interests in the Debtor will be cancelled and
      extinguished.

The Chapter 11 Trustee will be retained as the plan administrator.

The Investor Settlement will be presented to the Court for
approval as part of the confirmation.  The parties to the
Settlement are: the Chapter 11 trustee, the feeder funds Fletcher
Fixed Income Alpha Fund, Ltd., Fletcher Income Arbitrage Fund,
Ltd., and the FIA Leveraged Fund, Ltd., and the and their joint
official liquidators (JOLs) in proceedings in the Cayman Islands.

Under the Investor Settlement, the parties have agreed to (i) pool
their respective rights and interest with respect to claims
against insiders of the Fletcher funds and related entities and
other parties, including firms Grant Thornton LLP and Skadden,
Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, and (i) cooperate with the plan
administrator and the advisory board with respect to the
prosecution and settlement of those claims.

The claims -- principally fraud, breach of fiduciary duty,
negligence and similar tort claims against insiders and affiliates
and certain service providers and professionals -- will be pooled
together with similar claims belonging to the Debtor's feeder
funds and certain of its ultimate investors.

Recoveries on account of pooled claims will be used first, to pay
recovery costs, including attorney's fees and other professional
fees; second, to reimburse FILB for any advances of recovery costs
made by it; third, to fund the "operating reserve"; and fourth, to
the parties to the Investor Settlement, as follows:

  (i) 26.8% to the Debtor's estate, for distribution in accordance
      with the Plan;

(ii) 26.8% to the Arbitrage JOLs to be distributed in accordance
      with the orders entered in the liquidation proceedings in
      the Cayman Islands;

(iii) 26.8% to the Leveraged JOLs to be distributed in accordance
      with the orders entered in the liquidation proceedings in
      the Cayman Islands; and

(iv) 19.6% to the Alpha JOLs to be distributed in accordance with
      the orders entered in the liquidation proceedings in the
      Cayman Islands.

                 About Fletcher International

Fletcher International, Ltd., filed a bare-bones Chapter 11
petition (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 12-12796) on June 29, 2012, in
Manhattan.  The Bermuda exempted company estimated assets and
debts of $10 million to $50 million.  The bankruptcy documents
were signed by its president and director, Floyd Saunders.

David R. Hurst, Esq., at Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor, LLP, in
New York, serves as counsel and Appleby (Bermuda) Limited serves
as special Bermuda counsel.  The Debtor disclosed $52,163,709 in
assets and $22,997,848 in liabilities as of the Chapter 11 filing.

Fletcher International Ltd. is managed by the investment firm of
Alphonse "Buddy" Fletcher Jr.

Fletcher Asset Management was founded in 1991.  During its initial
four years, FAM operated as a broker dealer trading various debt
and equity securities and making long-term equity investments.
Then, in 1995, FAM began creating and managing a family of private
investment funds.

The Debtor is a master fund in the Fletcher Fund structure.  As a
master fund, it engages in proprietary trading of various
financial instruments, including complex, long-term, illiquid
investments.

The Debtor is directly owned by Fletcher Income Arbitrage Fund and
Fletcher International Inc., which own roughly 83% and 17% of the
Debtor's common shares, respectively.  Arbitrage's direct parent
entities are Fletcher Fixed Income Alpha Fund and FIA Leveraged
Fund, both of which are incorporated in the Cayman Islands and are
subject to liquidation proceedings in that jurisdiction, and which
own roughly 76% and 22% of Arbitrage's common stock, respectively.
The Debtor currently has a single subsidiary, The Aesop Fund Ltd.

After filing for Chapter 11 protection, Fletcher immediately
started a lawsuit in bankruptcy court to stop the involuntary
bankruptcy in Bermuda.  Judge Gerber at least temporarily halted
liquidators appointed in the Cayman Islands from moving ahead with
proceedings in Bermuda.  The lawsuit to halt the Bermuda
liquidation is Fletcher International Ltd. v. Fletcher Income
Arbitrage Fund, 12-01740, in the same court.

Richard J. Davis, Chapter 11 trustee appointed in the case, has
hired Michael Luskin, Esq., at Luskin, Stern & Eisler LLP as his
counsel.


FRANKLIN COUNTY, OH: Moody's Cuts 1997A Revenue Bonds Rating to B1
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has downgraded to B1 Franklin County, OH
Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds (Country Ridge Apartments)
Series 1997A.

Ratings Rationale:

The bonds are being downgraded following cash flow analysis
projecting revenue insufficiencies beginning in approximately 2
years.

Strengths

-- High credit quality of credit enhanced mortgage

Challenges

-- Performance relies on proper administration and adherence to
    mandatory provisions of the trust indenture and financing
    agreement by all parties

-- Little to no additional security is available from outside the
    trust estate

-- Low asset-to-debt ratio

-- Low interest rate environment

What Could Change the Rating Up:

-- An upgrade is highly unlikely given the high interest rates
    required to cure insufficiencies. However, in the event cash
    flows demonstrate both revenue and asset to debt ratio
    sufficiency, the bonds will be considered for a possible
    upgrade.

What Could Change the Rating Down:

-- Further material deterioration of cash flow projections

                         About FreeSeas Inc.

Headquartered in Athens, Greece, FreeSeas Inc., formerly known as
Adventure Holdings S.A., was incorporated in the Marshall Islands
on April 23, 2004, for the purpose of being the ultimate holding
company of ship-owning companies.  The management of FreeSeas'
vessels is performed by Free Bulkers S.A., a Marshall Islands
company that is controlled by Ion G. Varouxakis, the Company's
Chairman, President and CEO, and one of the Company's principal
shareholders.

The Company's fleet consists of six Handysize vessels and one
Handymax vessel that carry a variety of drybulk commodities,
including iron ore, grain and coal, which are referred to as
"major bulks," as well as bauxite, phosphate, fertilizers, steel
products, cement, sugar and rice, or "minor bulks."  As of
Oct. 12, 2012, the aggregate dwt of the Company's operational
fleet is approximately 197,200 dwt and the average age of its
fleet is 15 years.

Freeseas disclosed a net loss of US$30.88 million in 2012, a net
loss of US$88.19 million in 2011, and a net loss of US$21.82
million in 2010.  The Company's balance sheet at Dec. 31, 2012,
showed US$114.35 million in total assets, $106.55 million in
total liabilities and US$7.80 million in total shareholders'
equity.

RBSM LLP, in New York, issued a "going concern" qualification on
the consolidated financial statements for the year ended Dec. 31,
2012.  The independent auditors noted that the Company has
incurred recurring operating losses and has a working capital
deficiency.  In addition, the Company has failed to meet
scheduled payment obligations under its loan facilities and has
not complied with certain covenants included in its loan
agreements.  It has also failed to make required payments to
Deutsche Bank Nederland as agreed to in its Sept. 7, 2012,
amended and restated facility agreement and received notices of
default from First Business Bank.  Furthermore, the vast majority
of the Company's assets are considered to be highly illiquid and
if the Company were forced to liquidate, the amount realized by
the Company could be substantially lower that the carrying value
of these assets.  These conditions, among others, raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.


FREESEAS INC: Had $29.9-Mil. Loss for 3 Quarters Ended Sept. 30
---------------------------------------------------------------
FreeSeas Inc. reported a net loss of $29.94 million on $4 million
of operating revenues for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, as
compared with a net loss of $24.25 million on $12.13 million of
operating revenues for the same period a year ago.

As of Sept. 30, 2013, the Company had $107.35 million in total
assets, $106.63 million in total liabilities, all current, and
$711,000 in total shareholders' equity.

"Management is currently seeking and will continue to seek to
restructure the Company's indebtedness and obtain waivers on
covenant violations.  Based on the Company's cash flow projections
for the remainder of 2013, cash on hand and cash provided by
operating activities will not be sufficient to cover scheduled
debt service as of September 30, 2013, operating expenses and
capital expenditure requirements for at least twelve months from
the balance sheet date.  All of the above raises doubt regarding
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern," the Company
said in the Report.

FRESH & EASY: Creditors Balked at Asset Sale
--------------------------------------------
Several parties lodged objections to Fresh & Easy Neighborhood
Market Inc., et al.'s motion to sell substantially all of the
Debtors' assets.

General Electric Capital Corporation said that, pursuant to the
GECC Agreement, GECC currently leases equipment to one or more of
the Debtors.  The monthly rent due under the lease is $160,659.
GECC objected to the sale motion and cure schedule on these
grounds:

   a. the Debtors must assume and assign all burdens as well
      as benefits of the GECC Agreement;

   b. the Debtors have failed to provide adequate assurance of
      the buyer's future performance under the GECC Agreement;

   c. the "ipso facto" provisions of the Proposed Sale Order
      should not apply to the letter of credit issued by JPMorgan
      in favor of GECC because the LOC is not an assumable
      contract; and

   d. there is no basis to waive the 14-day stay provided in
      Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure 6004(h) and 6006(d).

Farm Credit Mid-America, PCA, formerly known as Farm Credit
Services of Mid-America, PCA, said its schedules are governed by
the GECC Agreement, which forms the basis of the objection of GECC
to the Cure Schedule and the Sale Motion.  Farm Credit requests
that the Court enter an order (i) sustaining the GECC Objection,
(ii) denying the sale motion, and (iii) granting further relief as
is appropriate.

Edwin R. Cottone, Esq., at Cottone & Moon -- on behalf of Moulton
Plaza, LLC, a landlord of certain commercial property located at
Moulton Parkway and Santa Maria Avenue in Laguna Hills, California
-- seeks to invalidate certain use restrictions in some executory
contracts and unexpired leases in connection with the sale.

On Nov. 22, the Bankruptcy Court authorized Fresh & Easy to sell
about 150 supermarkets plus a production facility in Riverside,
California, to Ron Burkle's Yucaipa Cos.  According to Bill
Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News, Fresh &
Easy received no competing bids.

According to the report, the bankruptcy judge in Delaware also
approved procedures for selling the right to transfer leases at
locations Yucaipa isn't buying.  In addition, the judge set up an
auction to sell 53 parcels of real property in California, Arizona
and Nevada that aren't being purchased by Yucaipa and aren't
covered by the lease sale.

Bids are due initially for the leases on Dec. 9.  The bid deadline
for the real property is Dec. 10. The auctions will take place
Dec. 12, followed by sale-approval hearings on Dec. 19.

loss of $3.83 million on $4.68 million of revenue during the prior
year.  The Company's balance sheet at March 31, 2013, showed $1.23

$3.01 million total stockholders' deficit.

Hancock Askew & Co., LLP, in Savannah, GA, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent auditors noted
that the Company incurred significant net losses in 2012 and 2011,
has a working capital deficit and a significant accumulated

ability to continue as a going concern.


GOOD SAM: Announces Initial Results of Cash Tender Offer
--------------------------------------------------------
Good Sam Enterprises, LLC, announced the initial results for its
previously announced cash tender offer to purchase any and all of
its outstanding 11.50 Percent Senior Secured Notes due 2016.
Approximately $213.6 million aggregate principal amount of the
Notes were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to
5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time (EST), on Nov. 19, 2013.  Payment
for Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or prior
to the Early Tender Deadline is expected to be made on or about
Nov. 20, 2013, subject to satisfaction of the conditions of the
Tender Offer.

All holders of Notes who validly tendered their Notes prior to the
Early Tender Deadline will receive total consideration of
$1,092.75 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equal to
(i) $1,042.75 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly
tendered and accepted for payment plus (ii) an early tender
payment of $50.00 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly
tendered and accepted for payment.  Accrued interest up to, but
not including, the applicable payment date of the Notes will be
paid in cash on all Notes validly tendered and accepted for
payment.

The Tender Offer is scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m. EST, on
Dec. 4, 2013, unless extended or earlier terminated.  Payment for
Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Deadline will be
made promptly following the Expiration Date (expected to be on or
about Dec. 5, 2013).  Holders of Notes that are validly tendered
after the Early Tender Deadline and on or prior to the Expiration
Date, and accepted for payment, will receive only the Tender Offer
Consideration and not the Early Tender Payment.

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the Company's
previously announced debt financing, the Company intends to
irrevocably call for redemption on or about Dec. 20, 2013, all of
the Notes that were not tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer, at
the redemption price of $1,086.25 for every $1,000 principal
amount of Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but
not including, the date of redemption.  Prior to the completion of
the redemption, the Company will satisfy and discharge the
indenture governing the Notes by depositing the redemption price
and accrued interest to, but not including, the redemption date in
trust in accordance with the satisfaction and discharge provisions
of the indenture.  Following the redemption, no principal amount
of Notes will remain outstanding.

Goldman, Sachs & Co. is serving as the Dealer Manager for the
Tender Offer.  Questions regarding the Tender Offer may be
directed to Goldman, Sachs & Co., Liability Management Group at
(800) 828-3182 (toll free) or (212) 357-0215 (collect).

whether holders of Notes should tender their Notes, and no one has
been authorized to make such a recommendation.

                          About Good Sam

Ventura, Calif.-based Affinity Group Holding, Inc., now known as
Good Sam Enterprises, LLC, is a holding company and the direct
parent of Affinity Group, Inc.  The Company is an indirect wholly-
owned subsidiary of AGI Holding Corp, a privately-owned
corporation.  The Company is a member-based direct marketing
organization targeting North American recreational vehicle owners
and outdoor enthusiasts.  The Company operates through three
principal lines of business, consisting of (i) club memberships
and related products and services, (ii) subscription magazines and
other publications including directories, and (iii) specialty
merchandise sold primarily through its 78 Camping World retail
stores, mail order catalogs and the Internet.

Good Sam reported net income of $9.37 million in 2012, as compared
with net income of $3.90 million in 2011. As of Sept. 30, 2013,
the Company had $263.73 million in total assets, $495.70 million
in total liabilities and a $231.96 million total member's deficit.

                           *     *     *

Affinity Group Inc. carries 'B3' long term corporate family and
probability of default ratings, with 'stable' outlook, from
Moody's Investors Service.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on November 9, 2010,
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned Affinity Group Inc.'s
proposed $325 million senior secured notes due 2016 its
preliminary 'B-' issue-level rating.  Following the close of the
proposed transaction, S&P expects to assign a 'B-' corporate
credit rating to Affinity Group Inc., and withdraw S&P's current
'D' corporate credit rating on Affinity Group Holding Inc.  A
portion of the proceeds of the new notes will be used, in
conjunction with cash contributions from Holding's parent, to
repay in full $88 million of senior notes that are currently
outstanding at Holding.

S&P said the expected 'B-' corporate credit rating on Affinity
Group reflects S&P's expectation that, following the proposed
refinancing transaction, adjusted debt leverage will be reduced by
about 1x, the company will not have any meaningful near-term debt
maturities, and the company will generate some discretionary cash
flow (albeit minimal).  Still, credit measures will remain
relatively weak, as adjusted debt leverage will remain above 6.0x
(S&P's operating lease adjustment adds about a turn to leverage),
and S&P expects interest coverage to remain in the low- to mid-
1.0x area over the intermediate term.


GP INVESTMENTS: Fitch Affirms 'B+' LT Issuer Default Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the ratings of GP Investments Ltd. (GP)
as follows:

-- Long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at 'B+';
-- Perpetual bonds at 'B+/RR4'.

The Rating Outlook is Stable.

Rating Rationale:

GP's ratings reflect its sound franchise and experienced
management, solid capital base, sound liquidity, and adequate debt
profile. Fitch's view of GP's creditworthiness is tempered by its
concentrated portfolio, tight recurring cash flow, and high debt
service to cash flow ratios.

When compared to debt service, GP's cash flow is quite tight, and
the company relies on volatile investment revenues to fulfill its
commitments. This is mitigated by the significant and consistent
liquidity cushion that GP maintains on its books, as well as by
the important yet volatile success fees, valuation profits,
financial revenues, and dividends.

As revenues fluctuate and GP's recurring EBITDA remains woefully
low, it does not adequately cover the company's debt service.
However, GP has ample liquidity that is regularly fed by the
aforementioned investment revenues, allowing the company to
handily fulfill its financial commitments.

Given the size of the deals GP executes, concentration is
structurally high and likely to remain so. This is mitigated by
the thorough and conservative investment policies that target
well-established companies that generate their own cash flows and
have significant growth potential. A mix of mature and growing
companies curbs execution risk, but concentration exposes its
results to volatility and sudden changes.

Boasting a very low debt to equity leverage (0.75x at September
2013), GP has a significant capital base that allows the company
to pursue its investment plans while maintaining an adequate
cushion against unexpected losses, a very important feature given
the high volatility that affects the value of its investments.

GP has historically had a very high liquidity (liquid assets after
commitments equaled about USD294 million at September 2013) that
has consistently covered all of its financial liabilities. From an
operational standpoint, GP's current liquidity fully covers its
annual operational expenses, debt service, and investment
commitments for the next 30-36 months.

GP's core liabilities are very long-term and almost equally
divided between perpetual bonds and a long-term loan maturing in
2020. This structure leaves plenty of room for GP to manage its
short- to medium-term cash flows and focus on its investments,
whose realization is contingent in nature, thus creating little
short-term financial pressure.

GP's management has significant expertise in the private equity
(PE) business after 20 years and more than USD5 billion in
investments. Driven by entrepreneurs, GP has the network,
contacts, and business acumen to be a top PE player in Brazil.

Rating Sensitivities:

GP's ratings would benefit from a larger and stable recurring cash
flow that would bolster debt and expenses coverage metrics. It may
also benefit from a more diversified investment base and the
stability of its liquidity reserves above USD100 million.
On the other hand, a significant increase of its leverage,
deterioration on its recurring cash flow metrics (Management Fees
below USD40 million), or dismal performance of its investments
could negatively pressure its ratings.


GRAYMARK HEALTHCARE: Incurs $16.5-Mil. Net Loss in 3rd Quarter
--------------------------------------------------------------

Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing a

million of revenue for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2013, as
compared with net income attributable to the Company of $1.15
million on $12.31 million of revenue for the same period during
the prior year.

For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, the Company reported a
net loss attributable to the Company of $15.87 million on $67.13
million of revenue as compared with net income attributable to the
Company of $4.48 million on $35.53 million of revenue for the same
period a year ago.

The Company's balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2013, showed $59.46

Graymark Healthcare, Inc., headquartered in Oklahoma City, Okla.,
provides care management solutions to the sleep disorder market.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company operated 107 sleep diagnostic and

                           Going Concern

As of March 31, 2013, the Company had an accumulated deficit of
$60.2 million and reported a net loss of $2.7 million for the
first quarter of 2013.  In addition, the Company used $0.3 million
in cash from operating activities from continuing operations
during the quarter.  On March 29, 2013, the Company signed a
definitive purchase agreement with Foundation Healthcare
Affiliates, LLC to purchase 100 percent of the interests in
Foundation Surgery Affiliates, LLC and Foundation Surgical
Hospital Affiliates, LLC, in exchange for 98.5 million shares of
the Company's common stock.  Management expects the transaction to
close in the second quarter of 2013; however, there is no
assurance the acquisition will close at that time or at all.

"If the Company is unable to close the Foundation transaction or
raise additional funds, the Company may be forced to substantially
scale back operations or entirely cease its operations and
discontinue its business.  These uncertainties raise substantial
doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern," according to the Company's quarterly report for the
period ended March 31, 2013.

Official creditors' committees have the right to employ legal and
accounting professionals and financial advisors, at the Debtor's
expense.  They may investigate the Debtor's business and financial
affairs.  Importantly, official committees serve as fiduciaries to
the general population of creditors they represent.  Those
committees will also attempt to negotiate the terms of a
consensual Chapter 11 plan -- almost always subject to the terms
of strict confidentiality agreements with the Debtors and other
core parties-in-interest.  If negotiations break down, the
Committee may ask the Bankruptcy Court to replace management with
an independent trustee.  If the Committee concludes reorganization
of the Debtor is impossible, the Committee will urge the
Bankruptcy Court to convert the Chapter 11 cases to a liquidation
proceeding.

HARRISBURG, PA: Receivership's Extension Wins Court Approval
------------------------------------------------------------
Law360 reported that a Pennsylvania appeals court agreed on
Nov. 27 to allow the state's financially beleaguered capital to
remain under the control of a fiscal receiver for another two
years as the city of Harrisburg struggles to restructure debt
stemming from a failed incinerator project.

According to the report, Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court Judge
Bonnie Brigance Leadbetter granted an application from C. Alan
Walker, secretary for the Department of Community and Economic
Development, requesting that the court extend the receivership for
Harrisburg.

As such, Maj. Gen. William B. Lynch will remain Harrisburg's
receiver until 2015, the report related.

                 About Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

The city of Harrisburg, in Pennsylvania, is coping with debt
related to a failed revamp of an incinerator.  The city is
$65 million in default on $242 million owing on bonds sold to
finance an incinerator that converts trash to energy.

The Harrisburg city council voted 4-3 on Oct. 11, 2011, to
authorize the filing of a Chapter 9 municipal bankruptcy (Bankr.
M.D. Pa. Case No. 11-06938).  The city claims to be insolvent,
unable to pay its debt and in imminent danger of having
tax revenue seized by holders of defaulted bonds.

Judge Mary D. France presided over the Chapter 9 case.  Mark D.
Schwartz, Esq. and David A. Gradwohl, Esq., served as Harrisburg's
counsel.  The petition estimated $100 million to $500 million in
assets and debts.  Susan Wilson, the city's chairperson on Budget
and Finance, signed the petition.

Harrisburg said in court papers it is in imminent jeopardy through
six pending legal actions by creditors with respect to a number of
outstanding bond issues relating to the Harrisburg Materials,
Energy, Recycling and Recovery Facilities, which processes waste
into steam and electrical energy.  The owner and operator of the
incinerator is The Harrisburg Authority, which is unable to pay
the bond issues.  The city is the primary guarantor under each
bond issue.  The lawsuits were filed by Dauphin County, where
Harrisburg is located, Joseph and Jacalyn Lahr, TD Bank N.A., and
Covanta Harrisburg Inc.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the County of Dauphin, and
Harrisburg city mayor Linda D. Thompson and other creditors and
interested parties objected to the Chapter 9 petition.  The state
later adopted a new law allowing the governor to appoint a
receiver.

Kenneth W. Lee, Esq., Christopher E. Fisher, Esq., Beverly Weiss
Manne, Esq., and Michael A. Shiner, Esq., at Tucker Arensberg,
P.C., represented Mayor Thompson in the Chapter 9 case. Counsel to
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania was Neal D. Colton, Esq., Jeffrey
G. Weil, Esq., Eric L. Scherling, Esq., at Cozen O'Connor.

In November 2011, the Bankruptcy Judge dismissed the Chapter 9
case because (1) the City Council did not have the authority under
the Optional Third Class City Charter Law and the Third Class City
Code to commence a bankruptcy case on behalf of Harrisburg and (2)
the City was not specifically authorized under state law to be a
debtor under Chapter 9 as required by 11 U.S.C. Sec. 109(c)(2).

Dismissal of the Chapter 9 petition was upheld in a U.S. District
Court.

That same month, the state governor appointed David Unkovic as
receiver for Harrisburg.  Mr. Unkovic is represented by the
Municipal Recovery & Restructuring group of McKenna Long &
Aldridge LLP, led by Keith Mason, Esq., co-chair of the group.

Mr. Unkovic resigned as receiver March 30, 2012.  Mr. Unkovic was
replaced by William Lynch as receiver.

HELIA TEC: U.S. Trustee Unable to Appoint Creditors Committee
-------------------------------------------------------------
Judy A. Robbins, U.S. Trustee for Region 7, notified the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas that she was
unable to appoint an official committee of unsecured creditors in
the Chapter 11 cases of Helia Tec Resources, Inc.

The U.S. Trustee has been unable to solicit sufficient interest to
form a creditors' committee.

Helia Tec Resources, Inc. filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. S.
D. Tex. Case No. 13-36251) on Oct. 3, 2013 in Houston, Texas,
represented by Richard L. Fuqua, II, Esq., at Fuqua & Associates,
PC, in Houston, as counsel to the Debtor. The Debtor listed
$16.15 million in assets and $2.24 million in liabilities. The
petition was signed by Cary E. Hughes, president.


HERTZ CORP: Moody's Rates 1st Fleet Lease Term ABS Transaction
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has assigned definitive ratings to the
Floating Rate Asset-Backed Notes, Series 2013-3 (the 2013-3 Notes)
issued by Hertz Fleet Lease Funding LP (the Issuer). The Issuer is
a bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity indirectly wholly-owned
by Donlen Corporation, currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of The
Hertz Corporation (Hertz, B1). Donlen, the servicer for this
transaction, provides fleet leasing and management services
primarily to businesses throughout the United States. Hertz will
provide a performance guarantee relating to the obligations of
Donlen as the servicer for the transaction. The 2013-3 Notes will
be issued under a master trust structure.

The complete rating action is as follows:

Issuer: Hertz Fleet Lease Funding, LP

Class A Series 2013-3 Floating Rate Asset Backed Notes, Definitive
Rating Assigned Aaa (sf)

Class B Series 2013-3 Floating Rate Asset Backed Notes, Definitive
Rating Assigned Aa2 (sf)

Class C Series 2013-3 Floating Rate Asset Backed Notes, Definitive
Rating Assigned A2 (sf)

Class D Series 2013-3 Floating Rate Asset Backed Notes, Definitive
Rating Assigned Baa2 (sf)

Ratings Rationale:

The definitive ratings assigned only address the timely payment of
interest and the ultimate payment of principal of the Series 2013-
3 Notes. The definitive ratings are based on an assessment of the
quality of the collateral, available credit enhancement and the
structural features of the transaction. The total hard credit
enhancement for the most senior notes rated Aaa (sf) is
approximately 14% including subordination, overcollateralization
and a reserve fund.

The Series 2013-3 Notes are ultimately backed by a special unit of
beneficial interest (SUBI) consisting of a pool of leases and the
related vehicles. A first priority perfected security interest in
the vehicles and leases will be held by The Bank of New York
Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as the collateral agent for the benefit
of the noteholders. The leases were originated in the name of
Donlen Trust (Titling Trust) by Donlen. Currently 100% of the
leases are open-end leases. The transaction structure allows for
up to 3% of the pool to be the residuals of closed-end leases.
Donlen's portfolio is relatively more concentrated by obligor size
for the large obligors compared with the portfolios of other fleet
lease ABS sponsors. As of September 27, 2013, the top lessee
accounted for approximately 8% of the pool and the top ten lessees
accounted for close to 40% of the pool. The structure includes
various concentration limits to mitigate the pool composition
migration risk during the revolving period or amortization period.
The largest obligor group either not-rated by Moody's, or rated
non-investment grade by Moody's is limited to 8.75% of the pool
while the largest obligor group rated investment grade by Moody's
is limited to 9.75% of the pool. There are also further limits on
pool concentration, on types of equipment and on the maturity of
the leases.

Key credit metrics on the lease pool include the weighted average
rating of the lessees, the diversity score (a measure of the
diversity of the pool of lessees) and the break-even recovery rate
on liquidated collateral in the event of a lessee default. The
overall weighted default rate of the entire pool is consistent
with a Ba3/B1 rating. The diversity score for the top 200 obligors
in the pool (approximately 97% of the entire pool by value) is
approximately 55, meaning the pool of lessees will have a similar
default profile as a pool of 55 independent and equal-sized
lessees with the same rating as the weighted average rating of the
pool.

V-Score and Parameter Sensitivity:

Moody's V Score: The V Score for this transaction is Medium, the
same as that for the fleet leasing sector. The V Score indicates
"Medium" uncertainty about critical assumptions.

The score for transaction complexity is Medium, the same as PHH-
sponsored deals but higher than those sponsored by ARI or Wheels
due to the revolving nature of the transaction. Moody's V Scores
provide a relative assessment of the quality of available credit
information and the potential variability around the various
inputs to a rating determination. The V Score ranks transactions
by the potential for significant rating changes owing to
uncertainty around the assumptions due to data quality, historical
performance, the level of disclosure, transaction complexity, the
modeling and the transaction governance that underlie the ratings.
V Scores apply to the entire transaction (rather than individual
tranches).

Moody's Parameter Sensitivities: For this exercise, Moody's
analyzed stress scenarios assessing the potential model-indicated
ratings impact if (a) the assumed weighted average rating of the
lessees were to immediately decline from B1 to B2 and B3 and (b)
the assumed recovery rates were to decrease to 55%, 60%, 65%, and
70%, respectively, for Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D,
respectively. The following descriptions provide a summary of the
results.

Using such assumptions, the Aaa initial rating for the Class A
Notes will change to Aa1 and Aa3, respectively, if the recovery
rate decreases to 55%; the Aa2 initial rating for the Class B
Notes will change to A3 and Baa3, respectively, if the recovery
rate decreases to 60%; the A2 initial rating for the Class C Notes
will change to Baa2 and Ba1, respectively, if the recovery rate
decreases to 65%; the Baa2 initial rating for the Class D Notes
will change to Ba1 and B1, respectively, if the recovery rate
decreases to 70%.

Parameter Sensitivities are not intended to measure how the rating
of the security might migrate over time; rather they are designed
to provide a quantitative calculation of how the initial rating
might change if key input parameters used in the initial rating
process differed. The analysis assumes that the deal has not aged.
Parameter Sensitivities only reflect the ratings impact of each
scenario from a quantitative/model-indicated standpoint.
Qualitative factors are also taken into consideration in the
ratings process, so the actual ratings that would be assigned in
each case could vary from the information presented in the
Parameter Sensitivity analysis.

HT INTERMEDIATE: S&P Keeps 'B' CCR Over Upsized PIK Toggle Notes
----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that a $10 million
increase in HT Intermediate Holdings Corp.'s senior pay-in-kind
(PIK) toggle notes to $110 million has no effect on its corporate
credit rating, issue-level and recovery ratings, or outlook on the
company.  The company has stated that it will use the proceeds to
fund approximately $106 million dividend to shareholders and pay
related fees and expenses.

Although recovery prospects for the PIK toggle notes lenders
diminish somewhat because of the facility upsize, the recovery
rating on that debt instrument remains '6', indicating that
lenders will achieve negligible (0%-10%) recovery of principal in
the event of a payment default.

Pro forma for the transaction, total debt to EBITDA increases
modestly to about 4.8x at Aug. 3, 2013, from 4.7x before the notes
upsize and 3.9x before the transaction.

solidify its position as a leader in the Explosives Trace
Detection market.  The Company's QS-B220 Desktop Trace Detector
has successfully achieved certification with the Service Technique
de l'Aviation Civile ("STAC"), the French civil aviation

Product List for passenger checkpoint and checked baggage
screening.  Extending the credit facility with Implant Sciences
clearly demonstrates our confidence in the continued success of
Implant Sciences."

Implant Sciences' President and CEO Glenn D. Bolduc added, "Once
more, DMRJ has demonstrated their confidence in Implant Sciences
and belief in our future.  We have been partners for almost five
years and they continue to be extremely supportive of Implant
Sciences and our initiatives, for which we are most appreciative."

Marcum LLP, in Boston, Massachusetts, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended June 30, 2012.  The independent auditors noted that the
Company has had recurring net losses and continues to experience
negative cash flows from operations.  As of Sept. 25, 2012, the
Company's principal obligation to its primary lender was
$33,429,000 with accrued interest of $3,146,000.  The Company is
required to repay all borrowings and accrued interest to this
lender on March 31, 2013.  These conditions raise substantial
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

For the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company incurred a net loss
of $27.35 million on $12.01 million of revenues as compared with a
net loss of $14.63 million on $3.40 million of revenues during the
prior year.

                        Bankruptcy Warning

"Despite our current sales, expense and cash flow projections and
$12,763,000 in cash available from our line of credit with DMRJ at
March 31, 2013, we will require additional capital in the third
quarter of fiscal 2014 to fund operations and continue the
development, commercialization and marketing of our products.  Our
failure to achieve our projections and/or obtain sufficient
additional capital on acceptable terms would have a material
adverse effect on our liquidity and operations and could require
us to file for protection under bankruptcy laws," the Company said
in its quarterly report for the period ended March 31, 2013.

INTELLIPHARMACEUTICS INT'L: FDA OKs Dexmethylphenidate Capsules
---------------------------------------------------------------
Intellipharmaceutics International Inc. announced that the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration has granted final approval of the
Company's dexmethylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release
capsules for the 15 and 30 mg strengths.  Commercial sale of these
strengths will be launched immediately by the Company's
commercialization partner in the United States Par Pharmaceutical,
Inc.

As the first-filer for the drug product in the 15 mg strength, the
Company will have 180 days of exclusivity of generic sales from
the date of launch in the United States by its partner, Par.

The Company's 5, 10, 20 and 40 mg strengths were also tentatively
FDA approved, subject to the right of another party or parties to
180 days of generic exclusivity from the date of first launch by
such parties.  Par intends to launch these strengths immediately
upon the expiry of those exclusivity periods.

Dr. Isa Odidi, the CEO and a co-founder of Intellipharmaceutics,
stated, "FDA approval of our application for a generic version of
Focalin XR(R) is a major milestone for the Company in several
respects.  We believe that the approval represents a strong
validation of our core drug development competence and our
controlled-release delivery technologies.  At the same time, we
have demonstrated that we can partner with an established and
well-regarded pharmaceutical company, in this case Par
Pharmaceutical, to see a product through to commercialization in
the United States.  Finally, this generic product will generate
our first revenues from commercial sales of a drug product in the
United States and provide an enhanced level of financial
flexibility to the Company."

Focalin XR(R), a drug used in the treatment of attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder, is marketed by Novartis Pharmaceuticals
Corporation. According to Source Healthcare Analytics, sales for
the 12 months ended October 2013 of Focalin XR(R) 15 and 30 mg,

new strategic partnership agreements funding some or all costs of
development, there can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to obtain any such capital on terms or in amounts sufficient
to meet its needs or at all," the Company said in its quarterly
report for the period ended May 31, 2013.


INTERFAITH MEDICAL: Judge Stong to Handle Mediation
---------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York
assigned the Hon. Elizabeth S. Stong to mediate matters relating
to Interfaith Medical Center, Inc.'s proposed closure plan.

Judge Stong will also mediate matters relating to the proposed
plan filed by the IM Foundation, and any related matters that
Judge Stong may consider appropriate for inclusion in the
mediation.

The mediation will attempt to resolve certain disputes by and
between the Debtor, Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors,
Dormitory Authority of the State of New York, New York State
Department of Health, 1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East, Ad
Hoc Group of Doctors, IM Foundation, New York State Nurses
Association.

The parties are ordered to contact Judge Stong's chambers to set a
schedule for the mediation and upon conclusion of the mediation,
the parties will notify the Court of the results of the mediation.

Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News, has
reported that Interfaith acceded to demands by the state
Department of Health and decided to shut down, even though the
287-bed acute-care hospital said the closing "will have serious
consequences for the provision of health care" in the Bedford-
Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, where the facility is located.

Then, Bill de Blasio, a candidate for mayor, interceded in
bankruptcy court, opposing demands by state regulators that the
institution close in September.  Mr. De Blasio won the election
and will become the city's mayor in January.

IM Foundation also has objected to closing, saying it has a plan
to continue operating the hospital.

INTERFAITH MEDICAL: Paladin and Aetna Propose Reorganization Plan
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Prasad Chalasani, MD, authorized by Paladin Health Care Capital;
and Aetna Health Insurance Carrier, accountable care solution,
filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of
New York a Plan of Reorganization for Interfaith Medical Center,
Inc.

According to the Disclosure Statement, the plan provides that
ambulatory care facilities will remain with the IMC as part of the
hospital's current GME (graduate medical education) teaching
program.

The plan proponents relate that federally funded Qualified Health
Clinics (FQHC) ambulatory facilities are not an option because (i)
they will not be able to sponsor residency programs as proposed by
IMC doctors; (ii) the FQHC plan would conflict with the Aetna
Accountable care Organization (ACO) Plan should the Debtors and
Hospital decide sponsor ACO's, as part of the main reorganization
to self sustain IMC without any financial support from outside in
a long run; (iii) FQHC will not be a practical option to  deliver
collaborative health care as per ACA (Affordable Care Act)
guidelines and engage the beneficiaries (patients and the
community).

Paladin proposes to fund the IMC as needed.

ISTAR FINANCIAL: Agrees to Sell $175 Million Convertible Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------
iStar Financial Inc. has agreed to sell $175 million aggregate
principal amount of 1.50 Percent Convertible Senior Notes due
Nov. 15, 2016.  The Company has also granted the initial
purchasers a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $25
million aggregate principal amount of the notes on the same terms
and conditions.  The Company intends to use the net proceeds of
the offering, along with available cash on hand, to redeem its
$201 million aggregate principal amount of 5.70 percent unsecured
Senior Notes due March 2014.  In addition, the Company agreed to
repurchase approximately 1.7 million shares of its common stock
with cash on hand, concurrent with the offering of the notes, in
privately negotiated transactions with purchasers of the notes.
The sale is expected to close on Nov. 19, 2013, subject to
customary closing conditions.

The notes will bear interest at a fixed rate of 1.50 percent per
year, payable semiannually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of
each year, beginning on May 15, 2014.  The notes will be
convertible into shares of iStar's common stock, based on an
initial conversion rate of 57.8369 shares of iStar's common stock
per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which is equivalent to an
initial conversion price of $17.29 per share of common stock and
represents a premium of 40 percent above the last reported sale
price of iStar's common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on
Nov. 13, 2013, of $12.35 per share.  The conversion rate and
conversion price are subject to adjustment in certain events, such
as distributions of dividends or stock splits.

tailored investment capital to high-end private and corporate
owners of real estate, including senior and mezzanine real estate
debt, senior and mezzanine corporate capital, as well as corporate
net lease financing and equity.  The Company, which is taxed as a
real estate investment trust, provides innovative and value added
financing solutions to its customers.

iStar Financial incurred a net loss of $241.43 million in 2012,
following a net loss of $25.69 million in 2011.  The Company's
balance sheet at Sept. 30, 2013, showed $5.77 billion in total
assets, $4.37 billion in total liabilities, $12.39 million in
redeemable noncontrolling interests, and $1.38 billion in total
equity.

                            *     *     *

In March 2013, Fitch Ratings affirmed iStar's 'B-' issuer default
rating and revised the outlook to "positive" from "stable."  The
revision of the outlook to positive is based on the company's
demonstrated access to the unsecured debt market, which, combined
with certain secured debt refinancings, have significantly
improved SFI's near-term debt maturity profile.

As reported by the TCR on Oct. 5, 2012, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services affirmed its 'B+' long-term issuer credit rating on iStar
Financial.

In October 2012, Moody's Investors Service upgraded the corporate
family rating to B2 from B3.  The current rating reflects the
REIT's success in extending near term debt maturities and
improving fundamentals in commercial real estate.  The ratings on
the October 2012 senior secured credit facility takes into account
the asset coverage, the size and quality of the collateral pool,
and the term of facility.


IZEA INC: CEO Ed Murphy Buys 20,000 Common Shares
-------------------------------------------------

Inc.'s president and chief executive officer, purchased 20,000
shares of the Company's common stock in the open market for a
total purchase price of $7,551 (an average of $0.38 per share) for

stockholders' deficit.

Cross, Fernandez & Riley, LLP, in Orlando, Florida, issued a
"going concern" qualification on the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent
auditors noted that the Company has incurred recurring operating
losses and had a negative working capital and an accumulated
deficit at Dec. 31, 2012.  These conditions raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern
without raising sufficient additional financing.


JEFFERSON COUNTY, AL: Fitch Rates $395MM Sr. Revenue Notes 'BB+'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings assigns the following ratings to Jefferson County,
AL's (the county) warrants:

-- $395 million senior lien sewer revenue current interest
    warrants, series 2013-A 'BB+';

-- $55 million senior lien sewer revenue capital appreciation
    warrants, series 2013-B 'BB+';

-- $150 million senior lien sewer revenue convertible capital
    appreciation warrants, series 2013-C 'BB+';

-- $810.9 million subordinate lien sewer revenue current interest
    warrants, series 2013-D 'BB';

-- $50.3 million subordinate lien sewer revenue capital
    appreciation warrants, series 2013-E 'BB';

-- $324.3 million subordinate lien sewer revenue convertible
    capital appreciation warrants, series 2013-F 'BB'.

The Rating Outlook is Stable.

The warrants were priced on Nov. 19, 2013 and are expected to
close Dec. 3, 2013. Final pricing of the warrants yielded total
borrowing costs less than prior forecasts. Also, subsequent to the
warrant pricing the judge overseeing the county's bankruptcy case
issued an order on Nov. 22, 2013, confirming the county's plan of
adjustment (the plan). The confirmation order also validates the
above warrants as well as the approved rate structure (ARS) that
supports the repayment of the warrants. The confirmation order
clears the way for the county to emerge from chapter 9 bankruptcy
before the end of this year.

Key Rating Drivers:

Prior Bankruptcy Triggers Sufficiently Mitigated: The onerous
regulatory requirements, risky financing structures, and
corruption - among other things - that led to the county's filing
for chapter 9 bankruptcy protection in Nov. 2011 and the need to
seek concessions for a significant portion of system obligations
appears to be either actually or effectively eliminated. General
concerns remain regarding pressures the system faces post
bankruptcy, but these concerns are not anticipated to affect
system operations or debt repayment going forward beyond what is
contemplated at the current rating level.

Out-Year Financial Concerns: System cash flows appear sufficient
to generate favorable debt service coverage (DSC) and meet capital
demands from surplus revenues over the next 10 years. However,
projected cash flow shortfalls for capital beginning in fiscal
2024 (despite anticipated sound DSC) are a significant concern.

Very High Debt Burden: System debt levels will remain high even
with a substantial reduction in system obligations resulting from
the county's plan to emerge from chapter 9 bankruptcy protection.
Further, the anemic amortization of the warrant financing will
leave the system's debt burden elevated for decades even without
additional borrowings.

Adopted Adjustments, But Possible Challenges: The ARS adopted by
the county commission, which calls for annual rate adjustments
through the life of the warrants, is a key credit positive as it
provides more certainty to the projected cash flows. However,
rates are already high and ongoing adjustments contemplated under
the ARS could spark increased political concerns, litigation, and
elasticity in usage, any of which might erode actual financial
results.

Strong and Diverse Service Area: The service territory is broad
and has grown into a diverse economy over the previous decades
with a stable population base. Major sectors now include finance,
medical and education along with the county's more traditional
manufacturing roots. Unemployment continues to post favorable
results, although income levels in the county remain meaningfully
lower than the U.S.


JEFFERSON COUNTY, AL: Moody's Puts Ba3 Tax Bond Ratings on Review
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's has placed various ratings associated with Jefferson
County (AL) under review for upgrade. They are the county's
General Obligation Warrants (rated Caa3, previous outlook was
negative), its Limited Obligation School Warrants (B3 negative),
the Jefferson County Public Building Authority Lease Revenue
Warrants (Ca), and the Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Center
Authority's special tax bonds (Ba3 developing). Moody's is not
taking action on the outstanding sewer warrants (Ca negative) at
this time, and Moody's expects to withdraw Moody's sewer warrant
rating once the debt is discharged.

Ratings Rationale:

A bankruptcy judge's order entered on November 22, 2013 approving
confirmation of the county's Chapter 9 Plan of Adjustment will
allow the county to exit bankruptcy next month. Moody's plans to
conduct a forward-looking assessment of the credit quality of each
class of debt post-bankruptcy.

Moody's current ratings on Jefferson County's direct and related
debt are based on Moody's approach to ratings of securities in or
approaching default. The county's bankruptcy exit plan provides a
different treatment for different creditor types, with some
creditors expected to see steep losses and others no losses at
all.

Moody's ratings represent expected loss, encompassing both default
probability and bondholders' likely post-default recovery. When a
security is in or approaching default, placement of the rating
will largely depend on the expected recovery to bondholders.
Ratings of defaulted bonds with expected recoveries of 65-95% will
typically be in the Caa range, 35-65% at Ca, and under 35% at the
lowest rating of C. In the rare case when expected recoveries
exceed 95%, such ratings will be in the single B range. When a
security is exiting default, placement of the rating focuses on
forward-looking factors of the credit fundamentals and the default
probability of the new and/or existing debt.

What Could Make the Rating Go Up:

-- Strengthening of the fundamental credit factors underlying the
    various classes of debt

-- Reduced expected loss upon emergence from bankruptcy

What Could Make the Rating Go Down (Removal Of Rur/Up And/Or
Rating Downgrade):

-- Deterioration of the fundamental credit factors underlying the
    various classes of debt

-- Likelihood of re-default or another bankruptcy filing

LANDMARK MEDICAL: Judge Signs Off Sale of Hospital
--------------------------------------------------
The Associated Press reports that Superior Court Judge Michael
Silverstein signed off on the sale of financially troubled
Landmark Medical Center in Rhode Island to a for-profit
California-based hospital chain, clearing the way for the
Woonsocket hospital's exit from receivership after more than five
years.

Judge Silverstein gave his go-ahead for the sale of Landmark to
Prime Healthcare Services, saying it is clearly in the public's
best interest because of the health services Landmark provides in
northern Rhode Island and the facility's economic role, according
to the report.

Landmark spokesman Bill Fischer said the last step, the closing,
is expected to take place on Dec. 31.

The report relates that Landmark, which will become Rhode Island's
first for-profit hospital after the sale is complete, has been in
receivership since 2008.  Previous purchase agreements, including
one with Steward Health Care of Massachusetts, fell through.

The sale also includes the Rehabilitation Hospital of Rhode Island
in North Smithfield.

The report relates that in a statement, Landmark President Rick
Charest called Prime's investment in the community unprecedented
and said without it the hospital likely wouldn't have been able to
remain open.

The report relays that the judge gave the green light after also
approving a settlement between Blue Cross Blue Shield of Rhode
Island and the special master that resolved several issues under
litigation, including Blue Cross's claim it was owed $3 million.
Prime will pay $800,000 to Blue Cross, within five days of the
closing, under the negotiated deal, according to the report.

The report notes that the insurer and Prime also agreed on a two-
year contract so Blue Cross members' care will be covered at
Landmark, which Fischer called a "huge hurdle to cross."

Preston Halperin, a lawyer for the special master, said the
settlement "wipes the slate clean" so Landmark and Prime can move
forward, the report discloses.


LEHMAN BROTHERS: Sues Wellmont, Americredit Over Soured Swaps
-------------------------------------------------------------
Patrick Fitzgerald, writing for Daily Bankruptcy Review, reported
that the surviving remnants of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. are
suing two former swaps counterparties over soured swaps, the
latest legal maneuver in the failed investment bank's attempt to
wring some cash out of its still considerable derivatives
portfolio.

According to the report, in a lawsuit filed on Nov. 26 in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in New York, Lehman said it was suing Wellmont
Health System Inc. over a terminated "total-return" swap
transaction, claiming the regional healthcare system prematurely
redeemed bonds to dodge a $12.8 million swap payment. The suit
seeks $21 million from Wellmont.

Separately, Lehman renewed its $30.7 million lawsuit against auto-
finance company Americredit Financial Services Inc. on Nov. 25 for
"grossly" understating what it owed Lehman on six interest-rate
swaps tied to securities-backed auto loans, the report said.

Americredit, a subprime auto lender bought by General Motors Co.
in 2010, terminated its swaps with Lehman shortly after the
investment bank's 2008 Chapter 11 filing, the report related.

Lehman's lawyers allege Americredit manipulated the market
quotation process for replacement swaps to avoid paying millions
in early termination payments to Lehman, the report further
related.  The failed bank is seeking the $30.7 million plus
interest.

                      About Lehman Brothers

Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. -- http://www.lehman.com/-- was
the fourth largest investment bank in the United States.  For
more than 150 years, Lehman Brothers has been a leader in the
global financial markets by serving the financial needs of
corporations, governmental units, institutional clients and
individuals worldwide.

Lehman Brothers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy (Bankr. S.D.N.Y.
Case No. 08-13555) on Sept. 15, 2008.  Lehman's bankruptcy
petition disclosed US$639 billion in assets and US$613 billion in
debts, effectively making the firm's bankruptcy filing the
largest in U.S. history.  Several other affiliates followed
thereafter.

Affiliates Merit LLC, LB Somerset LLC and LB Preferred Somerset
LLC sought for bankruptcy protection in December 2009.

The Debtors' bankruptcy cases are handled by Judge James M. Peck.
Harvey R. Miller, Esq., Richard P. Krasnow, Esq., Lori R. Fife,
Esq., Shai Y. Waisman, Esq., and Jacqueline Marcus, Esq., at
Weil, Gotshal & Manges, LLP, in New York, represent Lehman.  Epiq

On Sept. 19, 2008, the Honorable Gerard E. Lynch of the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of New York, entered an
order commencing liquidation of Lehman Brothers, Inc., pursuant
to the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act (Case
No. 08-CIV-8119 (GEL)).  James W. Giddens has been appointed as
trustee for the SIPA liquidation of the business of LBI.

The Bankruptcy Court approved Barclays Bank Plc's purchase of
Lehman Brothers' North American investment banking and capital
markets operations and supporting infrastructure for US$1.75
billion.  Nomura Holdings Inc., the largest brokerage house in
Japan, purchased LBHI's operations in Europe for US$2 plus the
retention of most of employees.  Nomura also bought Lehman's
operations in the Asia Pacific for US$225 million.

Lehman emerged from bankruptcy protection on March 6, 2012, more
than three years after it filed the largest bankruptcy in U.S.
history.  The Chapter 11 plan for the Lehman companies other than
the broker was confirmed in December 2011.

Lehman made its first payment of $22.5 billion to creditors in
April 2012, a second payment of $10.2 billion on Oct. 1, 2012,
and a third distribution of $14.2 billion on April 4, 2013.  The
brokerage is yet to make a first distribution to non-customers,
although customers are being paid in full.

LIBERTY HARBOR: Parties in Ownership Suit Have Issues With Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
Liberty Harbor Holding, LLC's proposed Chapter 11 plan and
disclosure statement must be clarified so that all parties
understand the impact of the proposed plan on an ownership lawsuit
pending in state court, says Richard M. Coan, the trustee of the
bankruptcy estate of First Connecticut Consulting Group, Inc.

Trustee Coan is a party in certain litigation pending in the
Chancery Court of Essex County, New Jersey, styled Mocco, et al.
v. Licata, et al. (the "Ownership Litigation").  In the lawsuit,
Trustee Coan and Ronald I. Chorches, trustee of the bankruptcy
estate of James Licata, claim to own an interest in a joint
venture with Mr. Peter Mocco.  The suit also claims that the
Liberty Harbor Project is owned by the joint venture.

According to Trustee Coan, the Disclosure Statement provides that
the Debtor will retain its claims in the Ownership Litigation, but
is silent with regard to the claims of third parties in the
Ownership Litigation that the third parties claim an ownership
interest in assets that the Debtors claim to own.

The Disclosure Statement acknowledges that the Debtors reached an
agreement with Trustee Coan and Trustee Chorches (and others) to
remove a deed that clouded title on the real property claimed to
be owned by the Debtors.  But according to Coan, the Disclosure
Statement fails to disclose that this agreement included an order
by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey
granting relief from stay so that the Ownership Litigation would
proceed in state court.

Meanwhile, James J. Licata, appearing pro se, filed an objection
to the Disclosure Statement.  He says that the Plan misrepresents
the status of the ownership of the properties within the Liberty
Harbor project.  He says that the ownership of the 19 acres is in
dispute and subject to the outcome of the state court litigation.
A full-text copy of the objection is available for free at:
http://bankrupt.com/misc/LIberty_DS_Licata_Objection.pdf

As reported in the Nov. 28, 2013 edition of the TCR, another
party, SWJ Management, LLC, said that without the resolution of
the Mocco vs. Licata trial, the plan is patently unconfirmable.
SWJ claims to be the deed holder of record of the assets claimed
by the Debtor.

                        Debtors' Response

The Debtors have submitted a response to objections filed by SWJ
and Licata.  The Debtors noted that SWJ Management claims to own
and assert the very same claims that the Licata Trustees have been
asserting for the last six years.  The document also noted of
"irregular and highly suspicious transactions by which SWJ
Management acquired the claims they are asserting."

As to Licata, the Debtors said that rather than contesting the
Licata version of history on a point by point basis, "we simply
attach copies of three judicial opinions arising from the trial of
a contested motion in the now 11-1/2 year old procedurally
consolidated bankruptcy cases of James Licata and his principal
operating company, First Connecticut Consulting Group, Inc."

A copy of the Debtors' response to the objections is available for
free at http://bankrupt.com/misc/Liberty_Resp_DS_Objections.pdf

                       The Chapter 11 Plan

As reported in the Oct. 31, 2013 edition of the TCR, Liberty
Liberty Harbor Holding, LLC, et al., filed a Joint Plan of
Reorganization and Disclosure Statement.

The Plan will be funded by the Debtors.  To the extent required,
the Debtors' principal, Peter Mocco, and his wife, Lorraine Mocco,
and entities owned and controlled by them will provide whatever
funds are needed to consummate the Plan.

Under the Plan, the modified obligations of the Debtors due to
Class 1 Kerrigan Family Claims and Class 2 JCRA Claims are
reaffirmed.  The Debtors do not believe that any funds are owed to
City of Jersey City, other than certain real estate taxes, which
the Debtors believe will have been paid in full prior to the
Confirmation Date.  The City of Jersey City is the sole member of
Class 3.  Class 4 Other Unsecured Creditors will be paid in full,
without interest.

LIGHTSQUARED INC: Dish Chairman Can Helm Bid Process
----------------------------------------------------
Liz Hoffman, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reported that
Dish Network Corp.'s $2.2 billion bid for telecommunications firm
LightSquared Inc. can go forward with the involvement of Dish
Chairman Charlie Ergen, who stands to profit personally from the
deal, a Nevada judge ruled on Nov. 27.

According to the report, the judge rejected efforts by some Dish
shareholders to sideline Mr. Ergen and put the bidding in the
hands of Dish directors without close ties to the company's
chairman.

She declined to issue an order blocking Mr. Ergen from involvement
with an auction for LightSquared, or to revive a special committee
of Dish directors that was disbanded this summer after
conditionally recommending a Dish bid for LightSquared's spectrum,
the report said.

Dish's directors, excluding Mr. Ergen and his wife, "recognized
the existence of a perceived conflict, and implemented procedures
that the Board of Directors deemed appropriate in the exercise of
valid business" judgment, the judge wrote, the report related.

A Dish spokesman said: "The Company is pleased that the Nevada
Court denied in virtually all respects the plaintiff's request to
interfere with the decision-making authority of the Company's
board of directors with respect to the potential acquisition of
certain assets of LightSquared," the report further related.

                      About LightSquared Inc.

LightSquared Inc. and 19 of its affiliates filed Chapter 11
bankruptcy petitions (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Lead Case No. 12-12080) on
May 14, 2012, to resolve regulatory issues that have prevented it
from building its coast-to-coast integrated satellite 4G wireless
network.

LightSquared had invested more than $4 billion to deploy an
integrated satellite-terrestrial network.  In February 2012,
however, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission told
LightSquared the agency would revoke a license to build out the
network as it would interfere with global positioning systems used
by the military and various industries.  In March 2012, the
Company's partner, Sprint, canceled a master services agreement.
LightSquared's lenders deemed the termination of the Sprint
agreement would trigger cross-defaults under LightSquared's
prepetition credit agreements.

LightSquared and its prepetition lenders attempted to negotiate a
global restructuring that would provide LightSquared with
liquidity and runway necessary to resolve its issues with the FCC.
Despite working diligently and in good faith, however,
LightSquared and the lenders were not able to consummate a global
restructuring on terms acceptable to all interested parties.

LOHREY ENTERPRISES: Calif. Court Tosses Barness Claim
-----------------------------------------------------
Chief Bankruptcy Judge Alan Jaroslovsky denied the administrative
expense claim filed by Daniel Barness, Esq., of the law firm of
Barness & Barness, LLP, on Dec. 20, 2012, in the Chapter 7 case of
Lohrey Enterprises, Inc., without prejudice to reconsideration if
the estate proves to be administratively solvent.

On Oct. 8, 2010, Barness moved the court to certify as a class the
former employees of the debtor who had wage claims.  This seemed
entirely unnecessary to the court, as nobody disputed those claims
and the Chapter 7 trustee, Jeffry Locke, had all of the debtor's
employment records. The court ordered that the motion would be
denied if Mr. Locke filed proofs of claim on behalf of the
employees, as Rule 3004 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy
Procedure authorized him to do.  Mr. Locke filed the claims for
the employees, so the class was not certified.

The case is now ready to close, and Mr. Locke seeks disallowance
of an administrative expense claim filed by Barness in an amount
equal to the greater of $735,000 (one-third of all employee wage
claims) or one-third of the amount the employees will receive, or
$59,000.  The court sees no equitable basis for allowance of the
claim, as no class was ever certified and there was never any
dispute as to either liability or amount.  There also appears to
be no legal basis for the court to allow the claim.

Barness cites Sec. 503(b)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code as the
statutory basis for his claim.  That section covers reasonable
compensation for professional services rendered by an attorney of
an entity whose expense is allowable under five enumerated
subsections of Sec. 503(b)(3).

According to Judge Jaroslovsky, statutory basis aside, the amount
sought by Barness, whether it be $735,000 or $59,000, is without
justification.  It is not actual, in that nobody has actually paid
Barness anything and none of the employees, with the possible
exception of the three named class claimants, are liable to
Barness for anything. It was not necessary, since there was no
dispute as to liability or amount. And it is not reasonable, given
the slight benefit to anyone.

Lastly, Judge Jaroslovsky said, Barness does not seem to realize
that this is a failed case.  The debtor's business completely
collapsed within a few weeks of the bankruptcy filing.  Mr. Locke
represents that he has only $550,000 for distribution, with little
likelihood of further recovery.  Even this small amount is subject
to other claims, some disputed, of equal and higher priority.
Pursuant to Sec. 726(b), the Chapter 7 expenses of administration
must be paid first.  The reality is that the employees can expect
to recover at most only a portion of their administrative claims.
Any award to Barness would only further dilute their recoveries,
even though all but three did not hire him or agree to pay him.
That would simply be unfair.

Administrative Expense is available at http://is.gd/9cXvGnfrom

MANITOWOC CO: S&P Assigns 'BB' Rating to $1.05-Bil. Facilities
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'BB' issue-level
rating and '1' recovery rating to Wisconsin-based Manitowoc Co.
Inc.'s proposed $1.05 billion first-lien credit facilities, which
include a $500 million revolver due 2019, a $350 million delayed
draw term loan A due 2019, and a $200 million term loan B due
2021.  The '1' recovery rating reflects S&P's expectation for very
high recovery prospects (90%-100%) in the event of a payment
default.  The company plans to use the proceeds to refinance its
existing credit facilities and for general corporate purposes.

The 'B+' issue-level rating and '4' recovery rating on the
company's existing $1.3 billion senior unsecured notes remain
unchanged.  The '4' recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation of
average (30%-50%) recovery in a payment default scenario.

The 'B+' corporate credit rating and stable rating outlook on
Manitowoc remain unchanged.  The company's credit metrics are in
line with S&P's expectations for the rating, and it expects them
to remain at these levels.  For the rating, S&P' expects total
debt (adjusted to include operating leases) to EBITDA of between
4x-5x and funds from operations to debt of 10%-15% over the
business cycle.  S&P's "fair" assessment of Manitowoc's business
risk profile incorporates its view of the company's good customer,
product, and geographic diversity in the cyclical construction
market, offset by its more stable food service business.

The company is one of the top two crane manufacturers, serving the
cyclical construction markets, and it is also one of the top two
manufacturers by product market share in the more stable food
service markets.

MONARCH COMMUNITY: Closes $16.5 Million Common Stock Offering
-------------------------------------------------------------
Monarch Community Bancorp, Inc., the parent company of Monarch
Community Bank, has completed its offering of approximately
8,250,000 shares of Monarch Community Bancorp's newly issued
common stock.  The shares were issued at a purchase price of $2.00
per share, for aggregate consideration of $16.5 million.  The
closing of the offering occurred contemporaneously with the
closing of a series of transactions between Monarch, certain third
party purchasers and the U.S. Department of Treasury through which
(i) the Department of Treasury exchanged 6,785 shares of Monarch's
Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A and a
warrant to purchase up to 52,192.40 shares of Monarch's common
stock for 2,272,600 shares of Monarch's common stock and (ii)
third party purchasers purchased 2,272,600 shares of common stock
from the Department of Treasury for a purchase price of
$4,545,200.  In addition to funding the Department of Treasury
transaction and as has been previously disclosed, after payment of
the expenses of the offering a portion of the proceeds will be
used to recapitalize Monarch Community Bank and to support the
ongoing growth of the bank.

"We are pleased to have completed the offering, and are grateful
for the positive response from the investment community," stated
Richard J. DeVries, president and CEO of Monarch Community Bancorp
and Monarch Community Bank.  Mr. DeVries continued, "We are
likewise grateful to the U.S. Department of Treasury for their
efforts during this process, and we express appreciation to our
investment bankers at Donnelly Penman & Partners and Boenning &
Scattergood, Inc. for their assistance with the offering, and to
our attorneys at Howard & Howard for their guidance and advice.
We believe that the completion of this offering satisfies all of
the obligations required under the FDIC and State of Michigan
Consent Order under which we operate.  Accordingly, we are hopeful
that we will soon be released from the Consent Order, and we look
forward to profitable growth as we strive to provide remarkable
service to our customers."

MONTANA ELECTRIC: Trustee Removed by Bankruptcy Judge
-----------------------------------------------------
Law360 reported that a Montana bankruptcy judge on Nov. 26 removed
the trustee for a Montana power co-op, saying changed
circumstances, such as agreement among the co-op's members on a
liquidation plan, eliminate the need for a trustee.

According to the report, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Ralph Kirscher
removed Lee Allen Freeman as the Chapter 11 trustee for Southern
Montana Electric Generation & Transmission Cooperative Inc.,
granting a motion by one of the co-op member creditors, Fergus
Electric Cooperative Inc., in a move that could lead to
liquidation of the power co-op's assets.


                  About Southern Montana Electric

Based in Billings, Montana, Southern Montana Electric Generation
and Transmission Cooperative, Inc., was formed to serve five other
electric cooperatives.  The city of Great Falls later joined as
the sixth member.  Including the city, the co-op serves a
population of 122,000.  In addition to Great Falls, the service
area includes suburbs of Billings, Montana.

Southern Montana filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy (Bankr. D.
Mont. Case No. 11-62031) on Oct. 21, 2011.  Southern Montana
estimated assets of $100 million to $500 million and estimated
debts of $100 million to $500 million.  Timothy Gregori signed the
petition as general manager.

Malcolm H. Goodrich, Esq., at Goodrich Law Firm, P.C., in
Billings, Montana, serves as the Debtor's counsel.

After filing for reorganization in October, the co-op agreed to a
request for appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee.  Lee A. Freeman
was appointed as the Chapter 11 trustee in December 2011.  He is
represented by Joseph V. Womack, Esq., at Waller & Womack, and
John Cardinal Parks, Esq., Bart B. Burnett, Esq., Robert M.
Horowitz, Esq., and Kevin S. Neiman, Esq., at Horowitz & Burnett,
P.C.

Harold V. Dye, Esq., at Dye & Moe, P.L.L.P., in Missoula, Montana,

MOORE FREIGHT: Plan Confirmation Hearing Continued Until Jan. 14
----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Tennessee
continued until Jan. 14, 2014, at 10:00 a.m., the hearing to
consider confirmation of Moore Freight Service, Inc., et al.'s
Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization dated Sept. 16, 2013.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Oct. 3, 2013,
Branch Banking and Trust Company objected to the treatment of its
claim, which is grouped in Class 6.3 Claim in the Debtors' Amended
Plan.  BB&T told the Court that by Agreed Order dated Feb. 12,
2013, stay relief was granted and BB&T took possession of the
vehicle and sold the same in a commercially reasonable manner.
BB&T amended its Claim on May 10, 2013, to reflect its unsecured
deficiency balance due and owing after sale of the vehicle. The
unsecured claim is in the sum of $10,751.

                           Amended Plan

The Amended Plan contemplates the continuation of the Debtors'
business, payment in full of Allowed Secured Claims, and a fair
distribution to unsecured creditors, which distribution Debtor
believe far exceeds the amount unsecured creditors would receive

NEFF VOLUNTEER: Fire Department Looks for Rescue in Drilling Deal
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Katy Stech, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reported that
until recently, Neff Volunteer Fire Department officials shrugged
over what to do with the 56 acres of rural Ohio that a woman left
the department after she died.

According to the report, the financially struggling department,
which answers emergency calls within 34 square miles of Belmont
County along the Pennsylvania border, had enough trouble dealing
with unpaid tax bills and its money-losing operations.  Then a
Texas oil and natural gas drilling firm came knocking.

The donated land, it turns out, sits atop the natural-gas-soaked
Utica Shale, the report said.  The U.S. Geological Survey has
estimated that the formation, which stretches from the middle of
Ohio to upstate New York's Adirondacks, contains about 38 trillion
cubic feet of "undiscovered, technically recoverable natural gas."

An attorney for the fire department told Bankruptcy Beat that the
drilling proceeds are its only hope to survive.

The Neff Volunteer Fire Department filed for Chapter 11 protection
last week in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Columbus while waiting
for its first pre-drilling payment from an affiliate of oil and
gas exploration company Paloma Resources, the report related.  The
company has promised the fire department a 20% cut of the oil and
gas royalties it would earn from pulling the resource out of the
deceased woman's property.

NIRVANIX INC: Incentive Plan for Human Resources Officer Okayed
---------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware approved
Nirvanix, Inc.'s management incentive plan and authorized the
payments thereunder.

The incentive plan applies only to Catherine Clark, the Debtor's
vice president of Legal and Human Resources, whose services,
according to the Debtor, are absolutely critical to the successful
consummation of a planned sale.

The Debtor intends to sell substantially all of its assets
pursuant to a Court-approved auction and sale process.  In this
relation, the work and effort of Ms. Clark is critical to the
sale and the management of the Debtor's chapter 11 case.  Ms.
Clark is one of two remaining officers of the Debtor and is the
officer with the longest tenure and most institutional knowledge
regarding the Debtor's business, the latter of which is critical
to the Debtor's sale efforts and efficient management of the
chapter 11 case.  Ms. Clark's involvement is particularly vital to
ensuring the Debtor's satisfaction of the rigorous closing
conditions contained in the Lot 1 Stalking Horse Agreement.

Under the terms of the incentive plan, Ms. Clark will be paid an
incentive payment only if she actually meets certain objective
benchmarks.  The maximum amount of incentive payments that Ms.
Clark could receive under the Incentive Plan -- if she meets all
applicable performance criteria -- is $21,340.

Ms. Clark will also be compensated when she meets the performance
goals.  Payments in these amounts will be made under the incentive
plan if the following Performance Goals are met:

   a. First Tier: Ms. Clark will receive an amount equal to
      $16,500 if a sale of the Lot 1 Assets is consummated with a
      purchase price equal to or greater than $2,800,000.

   b. Second Tier: Ms. Clark will receive an amount equal to
      $4,840 if a sale of the Lot 2 Assets is consummated with a
      purchase price equal to or greater than $500,000.

------------------------------------------------------------------
NNN 123 North Wacker 1, LLC and the other tenants in common (TIC
Members) who own over 86% of the property that constitutes the

of D. Tyler Nurnberg submitted in support of the application,
readily acknowledged the conflict.  The conflict is also
acknowledged by the Debtor, who has agreed to waive the conflict
in its engagement letter and further agreed that Kaye Scholer
would retain conflicts counsel in the event of material litigation
that is adverse to C-III.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Nov. 14, 2013, the
professional services that the Debtors anticipate requesting of
Kaye Scholer in connection with these Chapter 11 cases include,
but are not limited to, the following:

       appellate courts, and in their dealings with the Office of
       the United States Trustee; and

   (c) provide such other legal services and advice to the Debtors
       as may become necessary in connection with these Chapter 11
       cases.

       Partners                  $700-$1,175
       Counsel                   $605-$800
       Associates                $310-$755
       Legal Assistants          $95-$340

Kaye Scholer will also be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred.

On Oct. 3, 2013, the Debtors paid Kaye Scholer $100,000, which was
payment in full for services rendered by Kaye Scholer prior to the
Petition Date.  The payment related to services rendered by Kaye
Scholer during the period from Sept. 20, 2013 through the filing
of the Debtors' petitions on Oct. 4, 2013.  Kaye Scholer was not
paid any additional amounts by the Debtors in the 90 days prior to
the Petition Date.

D. Tyler Nurnberg, Esq., partner of Kaye Scholer, assured the
Court that the firm is a "disinterested person" as the term is
defined in Section 101(14) of the Bankruptcy Code and does not
represent any interest adverse to the Debtors and their estates.

NORBORD INC: DBRS Assigns 'BB' Rating to $240MM Sr. Secured Notes
-----------------------------------------------------------------
DBRS Inc. has finalized the provisional rating of BB with a Stable
trend to Norbord Inc.'s issue of $240 million Senior Secured Notes
with a coupon rate of 5.375% due December 1, 2020 (the Notes).

The assignment of final rating confirms that the final
documentation is consistent with that which DBRS had already
reviewed when assigning the provisional rating to the issue on
November 19, 2013.

DBRS expects Norbord to use the proceeds ($240 million) from this
issuance to fully repay the existing $165 million 6.25% Senior
Secured Notes due 2015 and $75 million 6.25% Senior Unsecured
Notes due 2015.

The Notes will rank senior in right of payment to all existing and
future subordinated indebtedness of the Issuer and equal in right
of payment to all of the Issuer's other First-Lien Indebtedness
(including indebtedness under the Credit Facilities and the 2017
Notes).


ORCHARD SUPPLY: Plan Votes Due Dec. 13
--------------------------------------
The Bankruptcy Court will convene a hearing on Dec. 20, 2013, at
2:00 p.m., to consider confirmation of First Amended Plan of
Liquidation of Orchard Supply Hardware Stores Corporation.
Objections, if any, are due Dec. 13, at 4 p.m.

On Nov. 13, the Court entered an order approving the Disclosure
Statement explaining Orchard Supply's Plan.

Ballots accepting or rejecting the plan are also due Dec. 13.

Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News, said
Orchard Supply creditors won't be waiting 12 years like Ames
creditors before receiving a distribution.  According to the
report, unsecured creditors of former hardware store owner Orchard
will take home somewhat more than Ames creditors.

The plan is based on a settlement between the creditors' committee
and secured term-loan lenders. The settlement assured payment of
costs of the Chapter 11 case, with something remaining for
unsecured creditors.

The disclosure statement informs unsecured creditors, with claims
ranging from $25 million to $35 million, why they can expect a
recovery of 2.1 percent to 3 percent.

Holders of senior notes, with claims of $130.7 million, are
predicted to have a 74 percent to 86 percent recovery.

By settling, the committee gave up the right to sue lenders over
the validity of a $127 million term loan.

Lowe's Cos. completed a $205 million acquisition of 72 of Orchard
Supply's 91 stores. There was $118 million owing on an asset-
backed loan coming ahead of the term-loan lenders.

The settlement called for paying off bankruptcy financing from
sale proceeds, with term lenders receiving the remainder after
Orchard Supply retained $25 million.

The retained funds provide full payment of the costs of the
bankruptcy case and claims entitled to priority, with the
remainder for term lenders.

The settlement also created a trust for unsecured creditors funded
with $500,000 from the company. After term lenders recover 90
percent of their claims, the next $1.5 million is for the
creditors' trust.

From proceeds of lease sales at the 19 stores Lowe's didn't
purchase, the creditors' trust receives the first $250,000, with
the remainder for term lenders.

At the outset of bankruptcy, Orchard had 89 stores in California
and two in Oregon.

OSAGE EXPLORATION: Amends Third Quarter Form 10-Q
-------------------------------------------------
Osage Exploration and Development, Inc., has amended its quarterly
report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2013, which
was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on
Nov. 12, 2013.  The purpose of the Amendment was to restate
certain income statement amounts set forth in the Original
Quarterly Report, as the Company has determined that certain
results of operations of discontinued operations should have been
excluded.  The restatement has no impact on previously reported
loss from continuing operations, income from discontinued
operations after income taxes, net income, or basic or diluted
earnings per share from continuing operations or discontinued
operations.

As restated, the Company reported a net loss of $198,812 on $2.66
million of total operating revenues for the three months ended
Sept. 30, 2013, as compared with a net loss of $198,812 on $3.66
million of total operating revenues as originally disclosed.

For the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2013, the Company reported a
net loss of $241,535 on $5.19 million of total operating revenues
as compared with a net loss of $241,535 on $8.47 million of total
operating revenues as previously reported.

statements for the year ended Dec. 31, 2012.  The independent

million in total assets, $25.29 million in total liabilities and

                        Bankruptcy Warning

"The Company's operating plans require additional funds which may
take the form of debt or equity financings.  The Company's ability
to continue as a going concern is in substantial doubt and is
dependent upon achieving profitable operations and obtaining
additional financing.  There is no assurance additional funds will
be available on acceptable terms or at all.  In the event we are
unable to continue as a going concern, we may elect or be required
to seek protection from our creditors by filing a voluntary
petition in bankruptcy or may be subject to an involuntary
petition in bankruptcy.  To date, management has not considered
this alternative, nor does management view it as a likely
occurrence," the Company said in the quarterly report for the
period ended Sept. 30, 2013.

PENN CENTRAL: Railroad Workers' Suit Finally Over After 44 Years
----------------------------------------------------------------
Clare Ansberry, writing for The Wall Street Journal, reported that
after 44 years, two retired railroad workers and the estates of 30
others are getting checks for a total of $14.7 million, in a
damage award that closes the book on one of the most disastrous
mergers ever.

According to the report, the 32 workers lost their jobs and
seniority after the Pennsylvania Railroad and New York Central
Railroad combined in 1968. The merger was designed to shore up the
two struggling railroads, which were quickly losing freight and
passenger traffic as the nation's highway system expanded.

The workers, who argued they were covered by a job-protection
deal, had been seeking damages worth $564,820 from the merged Penn
Central Transportation Corp., which lasted only 30 months before
collapsing into bankruptcy, the report said.

Their case, combined into a single lawsuit, wandered through
several courts and was heard by three arbitration panels, as well
as the federal Surface Transportation Board, the report related.
One of the many judges involved called it a "Dickensian" odyssey
through the legal system.

In September, a federal appeals-court panel upheld an award to the
workers for back pay and wages, the report further related.
Nearly all of it -- $14.2 million -- was interest.

The case is In The Matter of Penn Central Transportation Co., No.
70-347 (E.D. Pa.).

When the New York Central and Pennsylvania railroads agreed to
merge in 1962, the Interstate Commerce Commission, which then
regulated the nation's railroads, ordered them to reach a job-
security deal with their unions, which they did in 1964. Under the
deal, workers weren't suppose to lose jobs, wages or benefits as a
result of the merger, the Journal said.

Four years later, the giant Penn Central Transportation was born,
presiding over a 19,600-mile rail system that spanned the densely
populated industrial Northeast, but integrating the two companies'
rail networks, incompatible equipment and management proved nearly
impossible, the Journal noted.

In 1970, the company, burdened with debt, filed for bankruptcy
under the Bankruptcy Act of 1898, the report said.  The act, which
has since been replaced, carved out special protections for
railroad workers, then considered vital to the nation's economy.

The remaining assets of the system, along with those of other
bankrupt rail lines were transformed by three acts of Congress
into the government-backed passenger carrier Amtrak and the
freight carrier Consolidated Rail Corp., the report noted.

PRESSURE BIOSCIENCES: Discusses Record Third Quarter Revenue
------------------------------------------------------------
Pressure BioSciences, Inc., announced that Mr. Richard T.
Schumacher, the Company's president and CEO, presented a business
and financial update on the Company at the November 12th
SeeThruEquity Investor Conference in New York City.

Among the topics discussed by Mr. Schumacher were:

   * the Company's all-time record quarterly revenue, as reported
     in the fiscal 2013 third quarter;

   * revenue and earnings guidance for the fourth quarter of
     fiscal 2013 to date (Mr. Schumacher disclosed that the
     Company's product revenue through the first five weeks of its
     current fiscal fourth quarter has already surpassed product
     revenue for the entire fourth quarter of fiscal 2012).

   * the significant progress made by the Company in the
     development of its Barocycler HUB880 and the Barocycler High
     Throughput (microwell) pressure cycling technology-based
     instrument systems, and the expectation for the products' Q1
     2014 and Q2 2014 commercial releases, respectively.

   * the expectation for the Company to  repay all outstanding
     convertible notes prior to maturity.

Mr. Richard T. Schumacher, president and CEO of PBI, commented:
"We believe that our financial condition will be materially better
by years' end than it has been for several years, due to the
expected repayment of all convertible notes currently outstanding,
combined with expected strong F2013 Q4 operating results, new debt
under more favorable terms, and an anticipated fiscally-
responsible equity infusion."

Mr. Schumacher continued, "With the expected launch of two new
instrument systems during the first half of next year, both of
which are expected to add significantly to 2014 revenue, and our
continued vigilance in keeping expenses in check, we believe our
financial health will only get stronger going forward."

Mr. Douglas Rogers, managing director and head of the Capital
Markets Advisory Group of Merriman Capital, Inc. said: "We are
very impressed with the progress that the PBI Team has made in
2013, much of which we have observed first-hand as PBI is an
advisory client of ours.  During this time, they seem to have
successfully reached a number of management's key milestones,
including record quarterly revenue and an apparent breakthrough in
their patented pressure cycling technology ("PCT") platform.  We
believe the PCT platform could be one of the most compelling new
technology platforms we have seen in the space, and we will
continue to help support management and the Company as it seeks to
leverage its recent performance."

PRIMCOGENT SOLUTIONS: Court Enters Order Converting Case to Ch. 7
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Early this month the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of Texas entered an agreed order converting Primcogent
Solutions, LLC's Chapter 11 case to one under Chapter 7 of the
Bankruptcy Code, effective immediately.  The Debtor and the United
States Trustee agreed to the conversion.  Erchonia Corporation
consents to the conversion of the case to Chapter 7.

Debtor, or any third party in possession or control of same,
Will immediately turn over possession and control of all property
of the estate to the Chapter 7 trustee.

As reported in the TCR on Nov. 13, 2013, Erchonia asked the Court
to convert the Debtor's Chapter 11 case to a case under Chapter 7
of the Bankruptcy Code.  The Motion serves as a joinder to the
previously filed motion by the U.S. Trustee.

However, Erchonia does not join or adopt paragraph 71 of the U.S.
Trustee's Motion and opposes dismissal of the case, even in the
alternative.  Moreover, Erchonia does not seek a separate hearing
but, instead, seeks a concurrent and consolidated hearing with the
Trustee's Motion.

As reported by the TCR on Sept. 20, 2013, the U.S. Trustee said
the Debtor cannot propose a plan of reorganization under which it
may reorganize, citing:

   1. The automatic stay has lifted as to substantially all of
      the Debtor's assets, and those assets have been sold at
      foreclosure.

   2. The Debtor's remaining significant assets are three causes
      of action, which may be prosecuted by a Chapter 7 trustee.

Debtor Objects to Conversion/Dismissal

Primcogent Solutions filed a limited objection to the U.S.
Trustee's motion to convert or, in the alternative, dismiss its
Chapter 11 case.

The Debtor said it is presently considering its options, including
whether to liquidate under a Chapter 11 plan or to convert its
case to Chapter 7, wherein the Erchonia Litigation would be
managed by a Chapter 7 trustee.  A funded liquidating plan
pursuant to which the Debtor manages and oversees the Erchonia
Litigation will likely yield the greatest return to creditors, the
Debtor maintained.

The Debtor, however, is aware that a liquidation under Chapter 11
will require, among other things, additional funding.

                    About Primcogent Solutions

Primcogent Solutions, LLC, is a supplier and distributor of
medical equipment and services in North America.  Primcogent
operates as the exclusive North American (and, through its
European subsidiaries, Western European) seller or distributor of
equipment manufactured by Erchonia Corporation, pursuant to
exclusive license and supply agreements.  Products sold include
Erchonia's non-invasive body-contouring laser technology
trademarked under the name Zerona(R), including the Zerona Body
Laser.

Primcogent was formed in late 2011 following the acquisition
of the business of Santa Barbara Medical Innovations LLC for
$18 million.  Although the Erchonia agreement gave Primcogent
perpetual rights to sell Erchonia products, Erchonia declared in
March 2013 that the agreement has been terminated due to
Primcogent's alleged failure to perform and starting that time
stopped servicing Primcogent's products.  Primcogent, on the other
hand, claims Erchonia has committed fraud, breached the agreement
and tortiously interfered with Primcogent's business.  Primcogent
cites, among other things, Erchonia's failure to obtain FDA
clearance of Lunula, a laser technology used to treat or cure toe
fungus.

Primcogent also claims ORIX, its secured lender, is working in
concert with Erchonia.  A default in the Erchonia agreement
triggered a cross-default in the credit agreement, and the secured
lender has already seized control of Primcogent's cash account and
is attempting to control warehouse inventory.

Primcogent filed a bare-bones Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. N.D.
Tex. Case No. 13-42368) in Ft. Worth, Texas, on May 20, 2013.  The
petition was signed by David Boris, chairman of board of managers
of managing member.  The Debtor disclosed $82,490,751 in assets
and $27,236,020 in liabilities as of the Chapter 11 filing.  Judge
D. Michael Lynn presides over the case.  Attorneys at Andrews
Kurth, LLP, serve as counsel to the Debtor.

ORIX is represented by Robert W. Jones, Esq., and Brian Smith,
Esq., at Patton Boggs, LLP.

REDDY ICE: S&P Revises Outlook to Negative & Affirms 'B-' CCR
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said it revised its outlook on
Texas-based Reddy Ice Holdings Inc. to negative from stable.  S&P
also affirmed the corporate credit rating at 'B-', as well as its
'B' senior secured debt rating on its operating subsidiary, Reddy
Ice Corp.  The recovery rating remains '2', indicating S&P's
expectation for substantial recovery (70% to 90%) in the event of
a payment default.

On Sept. 30, 2013, Reddy Ice had about $348 million in total debt
outstanding.

"The outlook revision reflects our assessment of Reddy Ice's
liquidity as "less than adequate" given its diminishing covenant
cushion and our view that Reddy Ice could breach its maintenance
financial covenant on its term loan if operating performance does
not improve," said credit analyst Jean Stout.  "Both operating
performance and credit measures are weaker than we had previously
expected."

The negative outlook reflects S&P's belief that Reddy Ice may be
unable to remain in compliance with its maintenance financial
covenants on its first-lien credit facilities within the next year
given its weaker-than-expected operating performance year to date.
The EBITDA cushion is currently below 10%, and the net leverage
covenant tightens in the 2014 third quarter.  S&P could lower the
ratings if the company is unable to improve operating performance
through higher sales and further cost reduction to remain in
compliance with its financial covenants, or if the company is
unable to demonstrate a viable plan to improve its covenant
cushion.  S&P estimates liquidity would be constrained if 2014 net
sales increased by less than 3%, if gross margins do not improve
by more than 100 basis points as compared with the 2013 expected
levels, and if the first lien term loan is not reduced by about
$8 million, leading to S&P's estimate of the covenant cushion
falling to about 3% or lower.

Alternatively, S&P could consider revising the outlook to stable
if the company is able to restore and sustain the covenant cushion
levels of 10% or more, possibly through an amendment of its
covenant test levels, or if operating performance significantly
improved.  S&P believes the covenant cushion would be at least 10%
if 2014 results are significantly above its base case scenario.


REGAL ONE: Has $30,277 Net Investment Loss for Q3 Ended Sept. 30

SAN JOAQUIN HILLS: S&P Affirms 'BB-' Longterm Rating on Bonds
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services revised its outlook to stable
from negative and affirmed its 'BB-' long-term rating on San
Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor Agency (SJHTCA), Calif.'s
outstanding senior- and subordinate-lien bonds.

"The stable outlook reflects our view of the agency's adequate
revenue growth due to toll increases," said Standard & Poor's
credit analyst Todd Spence.  "In addition, the rating reflects our
view of the highly leveraged toll facility, which has historically
performed below projections with flat or declining traffic in
fiscal years 2008 through 2013; although, the first four months of
fiscal 2014 show an approximately 5% traffic increase," Mr. Spence
added.


SAND TECHNOLOGY: Completely Acquired by N. Harris Computer
----------------------------------------------------------
N. Harris Computer Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Constellation Software Inc., completed its previously announced
acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares of Sand
Technology Inc.  The Superior Court of Quebec issued a final order
approving the transaction on Nov. 14, 2013.

As of April 30, 2013, the Company had C$2.86 million in total
assets, C$3.64 billion in total liabilities and a C$787,933
shareholders' deficiency.

"With the exception of the year ended July 31, 2012, the Company
has incurred operating losses in the past years and has
accumulated a deficit of $42,992,975 as at April 30, 2013.  The
Company has also generated negative cash flows from operations.
Historically, the Company financed its operating and capital
requirements mainly through issuances of debt and equity.  The
Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon,
amongst other things, attaining a satisfactory revenue level, the
support of its customers, a return to profitable operations and
the generation of cash from operations, the ability to secure new
financing arrangements and new capital.  These matters are
dependent on a number of items outside of the Company's control.
These material uncertainties cast substantial doubt regarding the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern," according to
the Company's quarterly report for the period ended April 30,
2013.

SEAWORLD PARKS: S&P Puts B+ Corp. Credit Rating on Watch Positive
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services placed its 'B+' corporate
credit rating on Orlando-based SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment Inc.
on CreditWatch with positive implications.

At the same time, S&P placed its 'BB-' issue-level rating on the
company's approximately $1.6 billion senior secured credit
facility on CreditWatch with positive implications.  The recovery
rating on this debt remains '2', indicating S&P's expectation for
substantial (70% to 90%) recovery for lenders in the event of a
payment default.  As a result, S&P expects to raise the issue-
level rating on the senior secured credit facility one notch above
the corporate credit rating, in line with S&P's recovery notching
criteria.

The CreditWatch listing follows the recent S-1 filing that
registers 15 million shares of SeaWorld common stock for sale by
affiliates of The Blackstone Group L.P., which would reduce
Blackstone's ownership in the company to approximately 46% from
63%. In the event that SeaWorld completes the secondary share
offering, financial sponsor Blackstone would reduce its ownership
in the company to a non-controlling stake.  Upon the full
completion of the secondary offering, S&P could raise its
corporate credit rating on SeaWorld by as much as two notches to
'BB' from 'B+', which would reflect S&P's increased confidence
that the company will sustain adjusted debt to EBITDA under 4x and
FFO to debt of about 20% or higher over the next few years.  These
credit measures are in line with a "significant" financial risk
profile assessment, under S&P's criteria, which is an improvement
from its current "highly leveraged" financial risk profile
assessment.

In addition, S&P reassessed SeaWorld's business risk profile as
"satisfactory" from "fair," primarily reflecting a reassessment of
the importance of volatility of earnings in SeaWorld's business
risk profile.  S&P's assessment of SeaWorld's business risk
profile as satisfactory reflects low expected profit volatility
over the economic cycle compared with other rated leisure
companies, high barriers to entry in the theme park industry, and
S&P's belief the company will maintain adjusted EBITDA margin of
about 30% or higher.  SeaWorld's EBITDA concentration in a few of
its parks and the capital intensity of the theme park business
partly offset these factors.  S&P will resolve the CreditWatch
listing upon the completion of the secondary offering.  In the
event SeaWorld fully completes the secondary offering, S&P could
raise its corporate credit rating on SeaWorld by as much as two
notches to 'BB' from 'B+'.  In the event SeaWorld does not fully
complete the secondary offering, S&P will reassess ratings.


SEGA BIOFUELS: U.S. Trustee Unable to Form Committee
----------------------------------------------------
The United States Trustee informed the Bankruptcy Court that an
official committee under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 1102 has not been
appointed in the bankruptcy case of Sega Biofuels LLC.

The United States Trustee has attempted to solicit creditors
interested in serving on the Unsecured Creditors' Committee from
the 20 largest unsecured creditors.  After excluding governmental
units, secured creditors and insiders, the U.S. Trustee has been
unable to solicit sufficient interest in serving on the Committee,
to appoint a proper Committee.

The U.S. Trustee reserves the right to appoint such a committee
should interest developed among the creditors.

Sega Biofuels LLC, the owner of a wood-pellet plant in Nahunta,
Georgia, filed a petition for Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. S.D.
Ga. 13-50694) on Sept. 11 in Waycross, Georgia.  The Company
listed assets worth $10.6 million and debt totaling $13.7 million.

SINO-FOREST CORP: SDNY Court Recognizes & Enforces E&Y Settlement
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Judge Martin Glenn granted Ernst & Young LLP's "Motion
to Recognize and Enforce Order of Ontario Court Approving E&Y
Settlement".

Two joinders in the Motion were also filed: (1) Joinder of Foreign
Representative in (I) Motion to Recognize and Enforce Order of
Ontario Court Approving Ernst & Young Settlement and (II)
Memorandum of Law in Support of Motion to Recognize and Enforce
Order of Ontario Court Approving Ernst & Young Settlement; and (2)
U.S. Class Action Plaintiffs' and Canadian Class Action
Plaintiffs' Joinder to the Motion to Recognize and Enforce Order
of Ontario Court Approving Ernst & Young Settlement.

Through the Motion, E&Y seeks entry of an order giving full force
and effect in the United States to the March 20, 2013 order of the
Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) in the
proceeding of Sino-Forest Corporation under Canada's Companies
Creditors Arrangement Act.  The Order approves the settlement of
class action claims against E&Y and implements a global release in
favor of E&Y under Sino-Forest's plan of compromise and
reorganization dated December 3, 2012.

Pursuant to the Settlement, E&Y will pay C$117 million to resolve
claims asserted against it in class action litigations filed by
plaintiffs in Canada and the United States on behalf of all
persons and entities, wherever they may reside, who acquired any
securities of Sino-Forest, including securities acquired in the
primary, secondary, and over-the-counter markets.  Those
proceedings were commenced against Sino-Forest and certain of its
former officers, directors, underwriters, and auditors, including
E&Y, on the basis of alleged misrepresentations in SFC's financial
statements issued before 2011.

E&Y, SFC's external auditor from 2007 to 2012, is a named
defendant in the Class Actions.

Judge Glenn noted this is the first time the SDNY Court has been
asked to grant comity in a chapter 15 case to a foreign court
order approving a third-party non-debtor release since the Fifth
Circuit's decision in In re Vitro S.A.B. de C.V., 701 F.3d 1031
(5th Cir. 2012), affirming a bankruptcy court decision declining
to grant comity in a chapter 15 case to a Mexican court order that
included third-party releases.  In a decision preceding the Vitro
decision, the SDNY Court granted comity to a Canadian court order
that included third-party releases in In re Metcalfe & Mansfield
Alternative Investments, 421 B.R. 685 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2010).
According to Judge Glenn, Metcalfe is almost on all fours with the
Sino-Forest case, and nothing in Vitro would require a different
result here.

recommendation of the Audit Committee, that the Company's
previously issued financial statements included in filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission for this period should be
restated and the related press releases, reports and shareholder
communications describing the Company's financial statements for
this period should no longer be relied upon.

Based on its review, management, along with Crowe Horwath LLP, its
independent registered public accounting firm, determined that the
Company improperly reported cash flows between operating and
investing activities which resulted in a $17 million overstatement
of cash flows from operating activities and a $17 million
understatement of cash flows from investing activities due to the
improper classification of a portion of the conversion of $30.6
million of accounts receivables into notes receivables during the
second quarter of 2013.  Management will also update the
presentation of non-cash activities and disclosures related to
notes receivable.

SOUTH LOUISIANA ETHANOL: 5th Cir. Affirms Dismissal of CHS Suit
---------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit affirmed the
dismissal of the lawsuit commenced by CHS Inc. against Plaquemines
Holdings LLC to redeem certain assets South Louisiana Ethanol,
LLC, sold to Plaquemines Holdings' sole member during SLE's
bankruptcy.

CHS Inc. and South Louisiana Ethanol each owned a 50% interest in
a company whose sole asset was a tract of land.  South Louisiana
Ethanol filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code, and, as part of the confirmed liquidation plan, the
bankruptcy court ordered South Louisiana Ethanol to dissolve the
company held jointly with CHS and to partition the tract of land.
During the pendency of the required state court dissolution
lawsuit, South Louisiana Ethanol sold to a third party an option
to purchase all of its right, title, and interest acquired from
the dissolution of the shared company. The third party then
assigned its rights under the option contract to Plaquemines
Holdings.  CHS responded by filing the suit, contending that South
Louisiana Ethanol's option contract with Plaquemines constitutes
the assignment of a litigious right under Louisiana law, entitling
CHS to redeem the litigious right by reimbursing Plaquemines for
the cost of the option contract plus interest. The district court
granted Plaquemines's motion to dismiss, holding that the law at
issue did not apply to judicial sales.

The appellate case is, CHS, INCORPORATED, Plaintiff-Appellant,
v. PLAQUEMINES HOLDINGS, L.L.C., Defendant-Appellee, No. 13-30028
(5th Cir.).  A copy of the Fifth Circuit's Nov. 26, 2013 decision

STEREOTAXIS INC: Rights Offering Expired November 21
----------------------------------------------------
As a reminder to certain stockholders and warrant holders of
Stereotaxis, Inc., as well as holders of separately purchased
subscription rights, the current rights offering was scheduled to
terminate on Nov. 21, 2013, at 5:00 pm New York City time.

All payments and documentation required to exercise rights must be
received by Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc., by the
termination time, and those rights holders wishing to exercise
their rights may need to contact their broker, dealer, customer,
bank or other nominee in order to properly exercise their rights.
Accordingly, rights holders with any questions regarding
exercising their rights should contact the Rights Agent by
telephone at (855) 300-4994.

As previously announced, all stockholders and certain warrant
holders of Stereotaxis, Inc., as of the record date of Oct. 31,
2013, at 5:00 pm New York City time, received subscription rights.
For those interested in purchasing the subscription rights, these
rights can be purchased on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the
symbol "STXSR," and will continue to be listed until the
expiration of the rights offering.

For stockholders and certain warrant holders that received
subscription rights in connection with the rights offering, 1
subscription right was received for every 1 share held.  One
subscription right allows the purchase of 1/3 a share of common
stock at a price of $3.00 per share.  As an example, if an
investor owned 200 shares of common stock on the record date, the
investor would have received 200 subscription rights.  The 200
rights would allow for the purchase of 66 shares of commons stock
for $3.00 per share (a total of $198 = 3 x 66).

As stated above, if holders of subscription rights elect to
exercise any rights, the Rights Agent must receive all required
documents and payments from the holder prior to the expiration of
the rights offering.  If the holder's required subscription
exercise documentation is received by the Rights Agent after the
expiration of the rights offering, Stereotaxis may, in its sole
discretion, choose to accept the holder's subscription but will be
under no obligation to do so.

SUNTECH POWER: To Appeal NYSE Regulation Decision to Delist ADRs
----------------------------------------------------------------
In a press release dated Nov. 19, 2013, Suntech Power Holdings
Co., Ltd. (OTC: STPFQ) announced that it intends to appeal the
decision of NYSE Regulation, Inc., to commence delisting
proceedings of the Company's American Depositary Shares (ADRs).

According to Suntech Power, it received a letter from NYSE
Regulation on Nov. 6, 2013, stating that it would be suspended
from trading due to uncertainties about the Company's ability to
complete its Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2012,
within the time frames required by the NYSE.  The Company was
unable to file its Form 20-F for 2012 on time in light of
uncertainty around the Company's and its significant subsidiary's
ongoing restructuring and the fact that the Company is also in the
process of restating its previously issued Dec. 31, 2010 and 2011
financial statements.

Trading of the Company's American Depositary Shares had been
suspended by NYSE Regulation prior to the opening on Monday,
Nov. 11, 2013.  Since such suspension, quotations of the Company's
American Depositary Shares have been available on the OTC market
under the symbol "STPFQ".

The Company believes a Committee of the Board of Directors of the
NYSE will make a final determination as to the Company's American
Depositary Shares by early 2014.

                   About UniTek Global Services

UniTek Global Services, Inc., based in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania,

Unitek incurred a net loss of $77.73 million in 2012, as compared
with a net loss of $9.13 million in 2011.  As of Dec. 31, 2012,
the Company had $326.40 million in total assets, $278.10 million
in total liabilities and $48.30 million in total stockholders'
equity.

                         Bankruptcy Warning

As of Dec. 31, 2012, the Company's total indebtedness, including
capital lease obligations, was approximately $170 million.  This
amount has increased to approximately $210 million as of Aug. 9,
2013, including amounts borrowed to cash collateralize letters of
credit.  The Company's current debt also bears interest at rates
significantly higher than historical periods.  The Company said
its substantial indebtedness could have important consequences to
its stockholders.  It will require the Company to dedicate a
substantial portion of its cash flow from operations to payments
on its indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of the
Company's cash flow to fund acquisitions, working capital, capital
expenditures and other general corporate purposes.

"An event of default under either of our credit facilities could
result in, among other things, the acceleration and demand for
payment of all the principal and interest due and the foreclosure
on the collateral.  As a result of such a default or action
against collateral, we could be forced to enter into bankruptcy
proceedings, which may result in a partial or complete loss of
your investment," the Company said in the 2012 annual report.

                             *    *    *

In the June 11, 2013, edition of the TCR, Moody's Investors
Service lowered UniTek Global Services, Inc.'s probability of
default and corporate family ratings to Ca-PD/LD and Ca,
respectively.  The Ca corporate family rating reflects UniTek's
missed interest payment on the term loan which is considered a
default under Moody's definition, the heightened possibility of
another default event, continued delays in the filing of restated
financials including the last two audits, management turnover, the
potential loss of the company's largest customer and other
business and legal risks stemming from issues at the company's
Pinnacle subsidiary.

As reported by the TCR on Oct. 17, 2013, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services said it raised its corporate credit rating on Blue Bell,
Pa.-based UniTek Global Services Inc. to 'B-' from 'CCC'.  "The
ratings upgrade to 'B-' reflects our belief that the company
is no longer vulnerable and dependent on favorable developments to
meet its financial commitments over the next few years," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Michael Weinstein.

their stalking horse bidder, the credit arm of Blackstone Group

facts to gain leverage and an uncertain piece of the sale
proceeds.

According to the report, in two separate strongly worded reply
motions before the Delaware bankruptcy court, Blackstone unit GSO
Capital Partners LP, which is the stalking horse bidder and major
secured creditor, says the committee "twists and mischaracterizes
facts."

W.R. GRACE: Dec. 18 Hearing on Bid for Qualified Settlement Fund
----------------------------------------------------------------
W.R. Grace & Co. and its debtor affiliates asked Judge Kevin J.
Carey of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware
for approval to establish a so-called "qualified settlement fund"
and contribute up to $250 million to the fund.

By establishing the fund before the end of the year, W.R. Grace
can receive a tax deduction for this year.  Amounts transferred
to the fund will be transferred to the trust created to pay
asbestos-related claims against the chemical manufacturer,
according to court filings.

W.R. Grace had significant net operating losses for tax purposes
estimated on Dec. 31, 2003, to be about $348 million.  Its NOLs
have now been substantially utilized, and thus there are not
significant NOLs available to reduce its taxable income in 2013,
court filings show.

James O'Neill, Esq., at Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP, in
Wilmington, Delaware, said the Debtors may claim a deduction at
the time the amount is transferred to the fund regardless of when
it is actually received by the trust.

Mr. O'Neill said that based on W.R. Grace & Co.'s estimated 37.5%
marginal federal and state tax rate, it would result in up to
$93.75 million in tax savings.

According to the lawyer, the mechanics of the trust or the
company's restructuring plan won't be affected since the money
will simply be transferred to the trust.

A court hearing to consider approval of W.R. Grace's request is
scheduled for Dec. 18.  Objections are due by Dec. 11.

W.R. GRACE: Seeks Revision to Order Hiring Blackstone
-----------------------------------------------------
W.R. Grace & Co. is seeking a revision of a bankruptcy judge's
order that authorized the chemical manufacturer to hire
Blackstone Advisory Partners L.P. as its financial adviser.

revised order authorizing Blackstone to provide additional
services in connection with its acquisition of Dow Chemical Co.'s
polypropylene licensing & catalysts business.

W.R. Grace announced last month that it signed an agreement with
Dow to acquire the business for $500 million.  The deal is
expected to close by the end of the year.

The company will pay Blackstone a fee payable in cash in the
amount of 1% of the purchase price it paid for the business, and
will reimburse the firm for its work-related expenses.

A court hearing to consider approval of W.R. Grace's request is
scheduled for Dec. 18.  Objections are due by Dec. 2.

been held up by appeals in District Court from various parties,
including a group of prepetition bank lenders and the Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditors.

District Judge Ronald Buckwalter on Jan. 31, 2012, entered an
order affirming the bankruptcy court's confirmation of the Plan.
Bankruptcy Judge Judith Fitzgerald had approved the Plan on
Jan. 31, 2011.

The plan can't be implemented because pre-bankruptcy secured bank
lenders filed an appeal currently pending in the U.S. Court of
Appeals in Philadelphia.

                        Bankruptcy Warning

"Our indebtedness at June 30, 2013 was $16,938,962.  A portion of
such indebtedness reflects judicial judgments against us that
could result in liens being placed on our bank accounts or assets.
We are continuing to review our ability to reduce this debt level
due to the age and/or settlement of certain payables but we may
not be able to do so.  This level of indebtedness could, among
other things:

  * make it difficult for us to make payments on this debt and
    other obligations;

   * make it difficult for us to obtain future financing;

   * require us to redirect significant amounts of cash from
     operations to servicing the debt;

   * require us to take measures such as the reduction in scale of
     our operations that might hurt our future performance in
     order to satisfy our debt obligations; and

   * make us more vulnerable to bankruptcy or an unwanted
     acquisition on terms unsatisfactory to us," the Company said
     in the quarterly report for the period ended June 30, 2013.

http://is.gd/tiz2N3

In 1962, marking the 100th anniversary of the signing of the
Homestead Act by President Lincoln, 20 nationally recognized
economists, historians, a political scientist, and a geographer
presented papers at the Homestead Centennial Symposium at the
University of Nebraska. Their task was to appraise the course
that United States land policy had taken since independence. The
resulting papers are presented in this book, grouped into five
major areas: historical background; social factors influencing
U.S. land policy; past, present and future demands for lands in
the U.S.; control of land resources; and implications for future
land policy.

This book begins with a summary of the Homestead Act, its
antecedents, the arguments of its supporters and detractors, and
its intent versus implementation. The Act offered a quarter
section (160 acres) of public land in the West to citizens and
intended citizens for a $14 filing fee and an agreement to live
on the land for five years. The program ended in 1935.

Advocates claimed that frontier lad had no value to the
government until it was developed and began generating tax
revenue. Opponents feared the Act would lower land valued in the
East and pushed for government sale of the land. In practice,
states, territories, railroads and investors were able to set
aside more land than was eventually handed over to the
homesteaders.

One paper deals with land policy before 1862. From the start,
the U.S. required that "all grants of land by the federal
government should embody a description of the land not merely in
quality, but in place as defined by relation to an actual
survey." This policy avoided countless boundary disputes so
vexing to other countries.

Perhaps most interesting are the social history chapters:
Czechoslovakians pushing wheelbarrows across Nebraska,
"Daughters and Sons of the Revolution.(living) next
to.Mennonites," and "an illiterate.neighborly with a Greek and a
Hebrew scholar from a colony of Russian Jews." Mail-order
brides, "defectors from civilization," the importance of the
Mason jar, the Jeffersonian dream of a nation of agrarian
freeholders, and Santayana's observation that the typical
American skitters between visionary idealism and crass
materialism, all make for fascinating reading.

The land-use policy problems discussed certainly haven't been
solved today. And, although land use conflicts in the U.S.
haven't always been resolved equitably, "the big step forward
taken by the United States during the last one hundred and fifty
years in the age-long struggle of man towards the ideals of
mutuality and equity has been the working out of a system
wherein the sovereign superior who prescribes the working-rules
for land use and decision making have become, himself, a
collective of the citizenry."

A chapter is devoted to the arguments between the family farm ad
the "sentiment against concentration of wealth in the hands of a
few." The discussion of the Land Grant college system and its
contribution to international development closes with a quote
from Chester Bowles:

"Can we, now the richest people on earth, become creative
participants in the unprecedented revolutionary changes of our
era, changes that the most privileged people will oppose tooth
and nail, but which for the bulk of mankind offer the hopeful
prospect of a little more food, a little more opportunity, a
doctor for their sick child, and sense of personal dignity?"

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
