AFFIRMATIVE INSURANCE: Seeks to Extend Deadline to Remove Suits
---------------------------------------------------------------
Affirmative Insurance Holdings Inc. has filed a motion seeking
additional time to remove lawsuits involving the company and its
affiliates.

In its motion, the company asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in
Delaware to move the deadline for filing notices of removal of the
lawsuits to May 11, 2016.

The extension, if granted, would afford the debtors a "reasonable"
additional amount of time to determine whether to remove any
lawsuit, according to its lawyer, Shanti Katona, Esq., at
Polsinelli PC, in Wilmington, Delaware.

The motion is on Judge Christopher Sontchi's calendar for Feb. 25.
Objections are due by Jan. 26.

                      About Affirmative Insurance

Affirmative Insurance Holdings, Inc., Affirmative Management
Services, Inc., Affirmative Services, Inc., Affirmative
Underwriting Services, Inc., Affirmative Insurance Services, Inc.,
Affirmative General Agency, Inc., Affirmative Insurance Group, Inc.
and Affirmative, L.L.C. sought Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection
(Bankr. D. Del. Proposed Lead Case No. 15-12136) on Oct. 14, 2015.
The petition was signed by Michael J. McClure as chief executive
officer.

The Debtors have engaged McDermott Will & Emery LLP as general
bankruptcy counsel, Polsinelli PC as local Delaware counsel, Faegre
Baker Daniels LLP as special regulatory counsel, BDO USA LLP as
financial consultant and Rust Consulting/Omni Bankruptcy as notice
and claims agent.

The Debtors disclosed total assets of $25.20 million and total
debts of $91.26 million as of Aug. 31, 2015.

Founded in June 1998, Affirmative provides non-standard personal
automobile insurance policies for individual consumers in targeted
geographic markets.  NSPAI policies provide coverage to drivers who
find it difficult to obtain insurance from standard automobile
insurance companies due to their lack of prior insurance, age,
driving record, limited financial resources, or other factors.

On October 30, 2015, the Office of the U.S. Trustee appointed five
creditors to the official committee of unsecured creditors.


ALKERMES INC: Moody's Affirms Ba3 Corporate Family Rating
---------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed the ratings of Alkermes, Inc.
including the Ba3 Corporate Family Rating, the Ba3-PD Probability
of Default Rating, the Ba3 senior secured rating and the SGL-1
Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating. At the same time, Moody's
revised the rating outlook to negative from stable.

Ratings affirmed:

Corporate Family Rating at Ba3

Probability of Default Rating at Ba3-PD

Senior secured bank credit facilities at Ba3(LGD3)

Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating at SGL-1

The outlook change to negative follows disappointing clinical trial
results for ALKS 5461, an experimental depression treatment and one
of the major products in Alkermes' late-stage pharmaceutical
pipeline. Certain clinical trial data still points to the
effectiveness of ALKS 5461, and the drug is continuing in another
clinical trial with the potential for approval if results are
successful. Nonetheless, the results represent a setback in timing
at a minimum, and also raise the reliance on the remaining clinical
trial.

In addition, the setback highlights the risk associated with
Alkermes' strategy of conducting drug development and a shift
towards a more integrated pharmaceutical model. It is too early to
gauge the success of this transition, but Alkermes' recently
launched schizophrenia drug Aristada could help validate the
strategy if the launch is successful, or prompt the company to
shift its strategy if the launch is unsuccessful.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba3 Corporate Family Rating reflects Alkermes' expertise in
proprietary drug delivery technologies, high gross margins, and
good revenue growth prospects over the next several years from
existing products and potential pipeline launches. The ratings are
also supported by cash levels well in excess of debt levels, and
considerable value in Alkermes' existing revenue streams as well as
its pipeline. Existing revenue streams generate over $600 million
of revenue, derived from pharmaceutical products marketed by
leading firms including Johnson & Johnson. In addition, Alkermes
has three major Phase III programs in progress: ALKS 8700 for
multiple sclerosis, ALKS 3831 for schizophrenia and ALKS 5461 for
major depressive disorder.

Offsetting these strengths are Alkermes' limited size and scale
relative to pharmaceutical peers and its high reliance on
collaboration partners on key products. The company has high
revenue concentration among several marketed schizophrenia products
(Risperdal Consta and Invega Sustenna), but revenue should
diversify over time with growth in Vivitrol and from the newly
launched schizophrenia treatment Aristada. In addition, Moody's
anticipates that the company's earnings will be negative at least
through 2016 as it funds higher R&D costs related to its late-stage
pipeline and invests in the Aristada launch. These investments will
continue to have a negative impact on near-term credit ratios, but
could drive significant future growth for the company.

The SGL-1 rating reflects very good liquidity arising from $816
million of cash and investments reported as of September 30, 2015,
the ability to absorb negative cash flow in 2016, and no financial
maintenance covenants in the credit agreement.

The outlook is negative, reflecting high reliance on the Aristada
launch to shift towards positive earnings, and the potential for a
downgrade if the launch is slow.

Moody's could downgrade Alkermes' ratings if growth rates falter
due to competitive dynamics or a weak Aristada launch, if pipeline
execution is weak, if the company performs debt-financed
acquisitions, or if debt/EBITDA is sustained above 4.0 times.
Conversely, Moody's could upgrade Alkermes' ratings if: the
company's key products continue to grow, if Aristada experiences
fast sales uptake, if pipeline momentum is strong, and if
debt/EBITDA is sustained below 3.0 times.

Alkermes, Inc. is a US subsidiary of Dublin, Ireland-based Alkermes
plc (collectively "Alkermes"). Alkermes is a specialty
biopharmaceutical company that develops long-acting medications for
the treatment of central nervous system. Revenues totaled
approximately $640 million over the last twelve months ended
September 30, 2015.

                   About American Power Group

American Power Group's alternative energy subsidiary, American
Power Group, Inc., provides a cost-effective patented Turbocharged
Natural Gas conversion technology for vehicular, stationary and
off-road mobile diesel engines.  American Power Group's dual fuel
technology is a unique non-invasive energy enhancement system that
converts existing diesel engines into more efficient and
environmentally friendly engines that have the flexibility to run
on: (1) diesel fuel and liquefied natural gas; (2) diesel fuel and
compressed natural gas; (3) diesel fuel and pipeline or well-head
gas; and (4) diesel fuel and bio-methane, with the flexibility to
return to 100 percent diesel fuel operation at any time.  The
proprietary technology seamlessly displaces up to 80% of the
normal diesel fuel consumption with the average displacement
ranging from 40 percent to 65 percent.  The energized fuel balance
is maintained with a proprietary read-only electronic controller
system ensuring the engines operate at original equipment
manufacturers' specified temperatures and pressures.  Installation
on a wide variety of engine models and end-market applications

BOSTON OMAHA CORP: Posts Net Loss, Raises Going Concern Doubt
-------------------------------------------------------------
Boston Omaha Corporation had a net loss of $449,291 for the three
months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to a loss of $15,053
during the third quarter of 2014, or a per-share loss of $0.18
during the third quarter of 2015, compared to a per-share loss of
$0.06 during the third quarter of 2014, in view of revenues and an
increase in expenses.

Moreover, the company has an accumulated deficit of $1,218,458
since its inception and has not yet produced earnings from
operations.  

"These factors raise substantial doubt about the company's ability
to continue as a going concern," disclosed Alex B. Rozek, president
and treasurer of the company, in a regulatory filing with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission dated November 23, 2015.

Mr. Rozek further noted: "Management has in July 2015 raised an
additional $14,500,000 through the issuance of stock through a
private purchase of common stock.   We also anticipate
profitability from our recently acquired billboard operations.

"We continue to explore both the types and scope of acquisitions
and business lines that we wish to pursue.  The amount of capital
that we will need will depend on the scope of the acquisitions and
business lines that we ultimately decide to pursue, which is
uncertain at this time.  However, for us to acquire any significant
additional businesses, we would be required to undertake certain
financing activities once we exhaust the funding raised in July
2015.  The sources for financing would initially most likely be
institutional investors or accredited individuals.   We currently
do not have any binding commitments for additional financing.  We
cannot assure anyone that additional financing will be available to
us when needed or, if available, that such financing can be
obtained on commercially reasonable terms.  If we do not obtain
additional financing, it will limit the acquisitions we can
complete.   We cannot assure anyone that we will be successful in
obtaining necessary capital in our acquisition activities or that
any acquisition will achieve or maintain profitability.

"The ability of the company to continue as a going concern is
dependent upon the company's ability to attain a satisfactory level
of profitability.  There can be no assurance that management's plan
will be successful."

At September 30, 2015, the company had total assets of $24,278,899
and total stockholders' equity of $23,846,859.

If the transaction is approved by the Company's stockholders and
implemented, the Company expects to have fewer than 300
stockholders of record of its outstanding common stock, in which
event the Company intends to deregister its shares and cease to be
a reporting company under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.

Pursuant to the proposed transaction, stockholders holding fewer
than 200 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock immediately
before the transaction would have such shares cancelled and
converted into the right to receive from the Company a cash payment
of thirty cents ($0.30) for each such share owned before the
reverse stock split.  Stockholders holding 200 or more shares of
the Company's Class A Common Stock immediately before the reverse
stock split will receive one share for each 200 common shares held
and, as applicable, fractional shares based on the 1-for-200
reverse stock split ratio.  Cash consideration would only be paid
to shareholders who, after the reverse stock split, hold less than
one (1.0) whole share of the post-split Class A Common Stock.

If, after completion of the reverse stock split, the Company has
fewer than 300 shareholders of record, the Company intends to
terminate the registration of its common stock under the Securities
and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  If that occurs, the Company
will be relieved of its requirements to file periodic reports with
the SEC, including annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly
reports on Form 10-Q.  Though it will no longer be required to do
so by the Exchange Act or SEC rules and regulations, following
deregistration the Company plans to continue to provide
stockholders with annual audited financial statements and quarterly
unaudited financial statements and to solicit proxies in connection
with its annual stockholder meeting.

Implementation of the reverse stock split is subject to stockholder
approval of an amendment to the Company's Articles of
Incorporation.  Approval of the amendment would require the
approval of a majority of the Company's outstanding shares.  The
Company expects the amendment will be presented to the stockholders
for a vote on the amendment at the Company's 2016 annual meeting of
stockholders which will be held on March 21, 2016, and that if this
amendment is approved, the reverse stock split and deregistration
will be effective thereafter.  If for any reason, the amendment
cannot be presented at the 2016 annual stockholders meeting, the
Board will set a date and time for a special meeting of
stockholders at which the amendment will be voted upon by
stockholders.  Current directors and the Company's current Chief
Executive Officer/Chairman of the Board and its current Senior Vice
President/Chief Financial Officer, and affiliates, owning
approximately 56.6% of the Company's outstanding Class A Common
Stock, have indicated they support the proposed transaction and to
the extent they own or control shares of Class A Common Stock are
expected to support the proposed transaction and to vote in favor
of the proposed amendment to the Company's Articles of
Incorporation when the amendment is presented to a vote of the
Company's stockholders.

The Company's Board of Directors may abandon the proposed reverse
stock split at any time prior to the completion of the proposed
transaction if they believe that the proposed transaction is no
longer in the best interests of the Company or its stockholders.

The Company currently has outstanding 11,299,528 shares of its
Class A Common Stock, held by approximately 346 record holders.  No
Class B shares have been issued and thus no Class B shares are
outstanding.  The Company currently estimates that the proposed
transaction would reduce the outstanding common shares by
approximately 88,000 shares, or less than 1% (0.78%), through the
cash-out of fractional share interests of less than one (1.0) whole
post-split share and will reduce the number of record holders of
Class A Common Stock below 300.  Changes in share ownership prior
to the time the transaction is to become effective, as well as the
distribution of shares held in street name through brokers and
other intermediaries and the extent to which beneficial owners of
those shares participate in the transaction, will affect those
estimates, perhaps materially.

markets east of the Mississippi River.  The Company also publishes
The Herald-Dispatch daily newspaper in Huntington, West Virginia
with a total daily and Sunday circulation of approximately 23,000
and 28,000.

Champion Industries reported a net loss of $1.13 million for the
year ended Oct. 31, 2014, compared to net income of $5.71 million
in 2013.

As of July 31, 2015, the Company had $22.9 million in total assets,
$20.7 million in total liabilities and $2.1 million in total
shareholders' equity.


CHAMPION INDUSTRIES: Board OKs New Class of Capital Stock
---------------------------------------------------------
The Board of Directors of Champion Industries, Inc. approved and
recommended that shareholders approve an amendment of the Articles
of Incorporation of the Company to create a new class of capital
stock, i.e., 2,500 shares of Preferred Series A with a par value of
$1,000 per shares.  

The purpose of this proposed amendment and proposed authorization
of such Preferred Series A shares was to allow implementation of a
conversion of debt owed to a shareholder into equity in the form of
preferred shares, which conversion had been approved by the Board
on June 15, 2015, and was disclosed in a previous filing (10-Q
filed for the quarter ending April 30, 2015).  Specifically, as
approved on June 15, 2015, the Board authorized and approved
conversion of a $2,500,000 note payable to a shareholder, accruing
interest at the rate of 3.25% per annum (3.50% currently), to
preferred stock equity that would pay either a 0.00% dividend or
6.00% dividend contingent on the Company,s net income after income
taxes being at least $1.0 million, such that if the Company's net
income after income taxes is less than $1.0 million the dividend
rate on such preferred stock would be 0.00%.  However, because the
Company does not have a class of preferred shares currently, the
proposed amendment is necessary in order to authorize creation of
the preferred shares necessary to complete the Conversion.  The
Chairman of the Board, who is also the Chief Executive Officer of
the Company, is the shareholder affected by the Conversion and
consequently recused himself from the votes on these matters at the
Board's July 15, 2015, and Jan. 18, 2016, meetings.

If the transaction is approved by the Company's stockholders and
implemented, the Company expects to issue all 2,500 Preferred
Series A shares, which would have the following features under the
proposed amendment:

  * The proposed Preferred Series A shares would be non-voting
    shares.

  * The voting power for the election of directors and for all
    other voting purposes would be vested exclusively in the
    holders of the Class A common shares and, except as otherwise
    required by law, the holders of the proposed Preferred Series
    A shares would not have any voting power or be entitled to
    receive any notice of meetings of shareholders.

  * The proposed Preferred Series A shares would be issued in
    consideration of the conversion by a stockholder of
    $2,500,000.00 principal amount of debt owed to such
    shareholder by the Company, and shall be issued on the date of

    the Conversion upon surrender and cancellation of such debt by

    such stockholder.

  * The proposed Preferred Series A shares would be entitled to a
    preference in the event of liquidation as to proceeds thereof,

    over the common shares.

  * The proposed Preferred Series A shares would be entitled to a
    contingent dividend and a preference as to dividends, and no
    dividends would be paid by the Company to any holders of any
    class of common shares unless and until such dividends as are
    required to be paid to the proposed Preferred Series A shares
    have in fact been declared and paid to the holders of the
    proposed Preferred Series A shares.

  * The proposed Preferred Series A shares would be entitled to
    receive a contingent dividend, at the rate of six percent
   (6.00%) per annum on the par value thereof, to be paid in the
    first quarter of the next ensuing fiscal year, following any
    fiscal year in which the net income of the Company after taxes

    is at least $1,000,000.00 or greater; provided, however, that
    no dividend would be permitted to be paid on the proposed
    Preferred Series A shares, and such shares would have a zero
    percent (0.00%) dividend rate, unless the corporation earned
    at least $1,000,000.00 in net income after taxes in the prior
    fiscal year.

   * On each anniversary of the Conversion Date, the Company would
     have the option and right to redeem, in whole or in part,
     Preferred Series A shares at the redemption price of $1,000
     per share (par), at the option of the Company.

   * The proposed Preferred Series A shares would not have a
     conversion right to convert the proposed Preferred Series A
     shares to any class of common shares.

CONSTAR INTERNATIONAL: Dechert to Pay $1M to End Malpractice Suit
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Kali Hays at Bankruptcy Law360 reported that Dechert LLP will pay
$1.15 million to former client Capsule International Inc. to bring
an end to its $80 million malpractice suit over the firm's alleged
scheme to divert money to the bankrupt plastic bottle maker's
ex-bosses.

Capsule, formerly known as Constar International Holdings LLC, will
also receive a refund of a $150,000 retainer currently being held
by Dechert, according to Jan. 15, 2016's motion in Delaware
bankruptcy court.  Meanwhile, the law firm will release its
$600,000 unpaid-fees claim against the bottle maker

                    About Constar International

Privately held Constar International Holdings and nine affiliated
debtors (nka Capsule International Holdings, et al.) filed for
Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D. Del. Lead Case No. 13-13281) on
Dec. 19, 2013.

Constar, which manufactures plastic containers, is represented by
Michael J. Sage, Esq., Brian E. Greer, Esq., Stephen M. Wolpert,
Esq., and Janet Bollinger Doherty, Esq., at Dechert LLP; and
Robert
S. Brady, Esq., and Sean T. Greecher, Esq., at Young Conaway
Stargatt & Taylor, LLP.  Prime Clerk LLC serves as the Debtors'
claims and noticing agent, and administrative advisor.  Lincoln
Partners Advisors LLC serves as the Debtors' financial advisor.

Judge Christopher S. Sontchi oversees the 2013 case.

This is Constar International's third bankruptcy.  Constar first
filed for Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D. Del. Lead Case No.
08-13432) in December 2008, with a pre-negotiated Chapter 11 Plan
and emerged from bankruptcy in May 2009.  Constar and its
affiliates returned to Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D. Del. Case
No. 11-10109) on Jan. 11, 2011, with a pre-negotiated Chapter 11
plan and emerged from bankruptcy in June 2011.

The new petition listed assets worth less than $100 million
against $123 million on three layers of secured debt.

Attorneys at Brown Rudnick LLP represent the official committee of
unsecured creditors.  The Committee retained Alvarez & Marsal
North America LLC as its financial advisor.

Counsel to Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, the revolving loan
agent, is Andrew M. Kramer, Esq., at Otterbourg P.C.

On Feb. 10, 2014, the Bankruptcy Court authorized Constar to sell
certain assets to Plastipak Packaging, Inc., a global manufacturer
of rigid plastic packaging.  The Court determined that Plastipak's
$102,450,000 offer for the Debtors' U.S. assets bested the offers
from Amcor Rigid Plastics USA, Inc., and Envases Universales De
Mexico S.A.P.I. De C.V. during a Feb. 6 auction.

Separately, the Court authorized Constar to sell a facility in
Havre de Grace, Maryland, to Smucker Natural Foods, Inc., for $3
million.  There was no other bidder for the Maryland facility.

The sole director of debtor Constar International U.K. Limited
appointed Daniel Francis Butters and Nicolas Guy Edwards of
Deloitte LLP as administrators.  The U.K. Administration
Proceeding follows the closing of the sale of the U.K. assets to
Sherburn Acquisition Limited.  The Delaware Bankruptcy Judge
authorized the U.S. Debtors to sell the U.K. Assets to Sherburn for
GBP3,512,727, (or US$7,046,000), less the deposit in the sum of
US$1,250,000.

Secured lender Black Diamond Commercial Finance, LLC, as DIP note
agent, and Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, as DIP revolving agent
and agent under the revolving loan facility, consented to the
administration of Constar U.K. and the appointment of the Joint
Administrators.

In view of the asset sales in the U.S. and the U.K., the Debtors
changed their corporate trade names -- and with the Bankruptcy
Court's consent, their bankruptcy case caption -- to Capsule Group
Holdings, Inc.; Capsule Intermediate Holdings, Inc.; Capsule Group,
Inc.; Capsule International LLC; Capsule DE I, Inc.; Capsule DE II,
Inc.; Capsule PA, Inc.; Capsule Foreign Holdings, Inc.; and Capsule
International U.K. Limited (Foreign).

Christopher R. Murray of Diamond McCarthy LLP, serves as special
litigation counsel for the Constar bankruptcy estate.


CORNERSTONE HOMES: Ch. Trustee's Suit vs. Banks Dismissed
---------------------------------------------------------
Judge Paul R. Warren of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
Western District of New York denied the motion for summary judgment
filed by Michael H. Arnold, Chapter 11 Trustee for Cornerstone
Homes, Inc.

Judge Warren granted instead the cross-motions for summary judgment
filed by defendants First Citizens National Bank, Community
Preservation Corporation, and Elmira Savings Bank, and dismissed
the trustee's complaint.

The Chapter 11 Trustee requested entry of a declaratory judgment on
each of the five counts in the complaint, determining that each of
the consolidated notes and mortgages held by the defendants in
connection with a series of commercial loans made to the Debtor are
unenforceable as a matter of law.

The Debtor had previously granted numerous notes and mortgages to
individual "investors" who, in turn, executed a written assignment
of their mortgage to one of the defendants.  Each written
assignment of mortgage was signed by the actual person named in the
assignment who was the holder of the underlying note.

The Chapter 11 Trustee argued that because the individual lenders
never indorsed or delivered physical possession of the underlying
notes, the assignments of the individual investor mortgages are not
valid under New York real property law.

Judge Warren, however, held that the consolidated notes and
mortgages are enforceable, secured, and that defendants have
standing to enforce their consolidated notes and mortgages.  The
judge explained that this is because the defendants obtained
written assignments of the individual investor mortgages from
actual individuals with the legal right to assign their rights
under both the mortgage and the underlying note -- and because the
assignments specifically included the phrase "together with the
bond or obligation described in the mortgage."

The adversary proceeding is MICHAEL H. ARNOLD, as Chapter 11
Trustee, Plaintiff, v. FIRST CITIZENS NATIONAL BANK, COMMUNITY
PRESERVATION CORPORATION, and ELMIRA SAVINGS BANK, Defendants,
Adversary Proceeding No. 15-2030-PRW (Bankr. W.D.N.Y.).

The bankruptcy case is In re: CORNERSTONE HOMES, INC., Chapter 11,
Debtor, Bankruptcy Case No. 13-21103-PRW (Bankr. W.D.N.Y.).

Cornerstone Homes Inc. is based in Corning, New York and is engaged
in the business of buying, selling and leasing single family homes
in the State of New York, with such properties primarily located in
the South Central and South Western portions of the State.

Cornerstone Homes Inc. filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. W.D.N.Y.
Case No. 13-21103) on July 15, 2013, in Rochester alongside a
reorganization plan already accepted by 96 percent of unsecured
creditors' claims.

The Debtor disclosed assets of $18.6 million and liabilities of
$36.2 million.  Four secured lenders with $21.8 million in claims
are to be paid in full under the plan.  Unsecured creditors --
chiefly noteholders with $14.5 million in claims -- will have a 7
percent recovery.

Judge Paul R. Warren presides over the case.  Curtiss Alan Johnson,
Esq., and David L. Rasmussen, Esq., at Davidson Fink, LLP, in
Rochester, N.Y., serve as the Debtor's counsel.  The Debtor has
tapped GAR Associates to appraise a selection of its properties to
support the Debtor's liquidation analysis.

The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors is represented by
Gregory J. Mascitti, Esq., at LeClairRyan PC.  The Committee
retained Getzler Henrich & Associates LLC as financial advisor.

Cornerstone Homes Inc. delivered to the Bankruptcy Court a First
Amended Plan of Reorganization and explanatory Disclosure Statement
on Jan. 3, 2014.  The Amended Plan supersedes the Plan Cornerstone
prepared prior to filing for bankruptcy.  The Debtor intends to
liquidate properties over a period of time, so as to achieve
maximum recovery for the creditors while avoiding a deleterious
effect on the housing market.  The Plan provides for a distribution
of $1 million as an Unsecured Distribution Amount.  
Owner David Fleet will pledge up to $1 million to fund
distributions under the Plan.  It also provides for the
distribution of the stock in the Reorganized Debtor to holders of
Allowed Unsecured Noteholder Claims under Class 5.  The Class 5
Claimants are expected to receive 7% plus distribution of stock on
the Distribution Date.  The Claimants are impaired and entitled to
vote on the Plan.

No hearing was slated to consider the Amended Plan documents.
Instead, the Court accepted the request of the Committee to appoint
a Chapter 11 trustee to replace management.  The Court approved the
appointment of Michael H. Arnold, Esq., as Chapter 11 trustee.  He
is represented by his law firm, Place and Arnold as his counsel.

Michael H. Arnold, Chapter 11 trustee, is represented by the firm
of Place and Arnold.  LeClairRyan and Barclay Damon LLP serve as
his special counsel.

DAEBO INT'L: Court Grants Request to Vacate Maritime Attachments
----------------------------------------------------------------
The foreign representative of Daebo International Shipping Co., LTD
has asked the Bankruptcy Court to vacate maritime attachments made
against the M/V DAEBO TRADER in Louisiana.

The parties in the case agree that a Korean court issued an order,
before the attachments were made, that stayed creditors from
attaching assets of Daebo.  The creditors argue that the
attachments and the creditors' claims are really being asserted
against the registered owner of the TRADER, Shinhan Capital Co.,
and are not barred by the Korean court's stay order.
Alternatively, they argue that the Court should permit the
attachments to protect the interests of the US creditors.

In a Memorandum Decision dated December 15, 2015, which is
available at http://is.gd/VrJ3Omfrom Leagle.com, Judge Michael E.
Wiles of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of New York concluded that the attachments should be
vacated.

DEWEY & LEBOEUF: Manager Zachary Warren Headed for March Trial
--------------------------------------------------------------
Stewart Bishop at Bankruptcy Law360 reported that the sole
non-executive employee of Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP to fight charges that
he aided in a purported scheme to defraud the law firm's lenders
and investors is headed for trial in a matter of months, ahead of a
second trial of two of the firm's former top leaders.

New York Supreme Court Judge Robert Stolz said during a hearing in
Manhattan jury selection in the trial of former Dewey Client
Relations Manager Zachary Warren will begin on March 14.

                      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

                      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

---------------------------------------------------------------
Jeff Montgomery at Bankruptcy Law360 reported that Diamondhead
Casino Corp.'s bid for release from an involuntary bankruptcy case
dissolved in Delaware bankruptcy court into disputes over imprecise
witness lists and second-hand testimony on Jan. 15, 2016, with
creditors and debtors eventually falling back to exchange arguments
on paper.

One person -- Diamondhead President Deborah Vitale -- made it to
the witness stand to testify before U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Laurie
Selber Silverstein on the financial condition of the long-proposed
luxury casino on a 400-acre Mississippi site off the north shore of
St. Louis Bay.

                       About Diamondhead Casino

Largo, Fla.-based Diamondhead Casino Corporation, from inception
through approximately August of 2000, operated gaming vessels in
international waters.  The Company eventually divested itself of
its gaming operations to satisfy financial obligations to its
vendors, lenders and taxing authorities and to focus its resources
on the development of a casino resort in Diamondhead, Mississippi.

The Company owns, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mississippi
Gaming Corporation, an approximate 404.5 acre tract of unimproved
land in Diamondhead, Mississippi.  The property is located at 7051
Interstate 10.  The Company intends, in conjunction with unrelated
third parties, to develop the site in phases beginning with a
casino resort.  The casino resort is expected to include a casino,
a hotel and spa, pools, a sport and entertainment center, a
conference center and a state-of-the-art recreational vehicle
park.

On August 6, 2015, an involuntary Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition
(Bankr. D. Del. 15-11647) was filed in Wilmington, Delaware
bankruptcy court by F. Richard Stark, Arnold J. Sussman and A.
David Cohen.  The three creditors list combined claims of $150,000
in principal, plus interest due on certain promissory notes.  On
Sept. 17, DDM Holdings filed a joinder to the involuntary
petition.

The Petitioning Creditors are represented by William E. Chipman,

                     About Diamondhead Casino

Diamondhead Casino Corporation and Subsidiaries own a total of
approximately 404.5 acres of unimproved land in Diamondhead,
Mississippi on which the Company plans, unilaterally, or in
conjunction with one or more partners, to construct a casino resort
and hotel and associated amenities.  The Company was originally
formed to principally own, operate and promote gaming vessels
offering day and evening cruises in international waters.

As of Sept. 30, 2015, the Company had $5.72 million in total
assets, $8.73 million in total liabilities and a total
stockholders' deficit of $3.01 million.

"The Company has incurred continued losses over the past several
years and certain conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company has
had no operations since it ended its gambling cruise ship
operations in 2000.  Since that time, the Company has concentrated
its efforts on the development of its Diamondhead, Mississippi
Property.  The development of the Diamondhead Property is dependent
on obtaining the necessary capital, through equity and/or debt
financing, unilaterally, or in conjunction with one or more
partners, to master plan, design, obtain permits for, construct,
staff, open, and operate a casino resort.  In the past, the Company
has been able to sustain itself through various short term
borrowings, however, as of September 30, 2015, the Company cash on
hand amounted to $87,599, while accounts payable and accrued
expenses totaled $3,747,634.  Therefore, in order to sustain
itself, it is imperative that the Company secure a source of funds
to provide further working capital," the Company states in its
quarterly report for the period ended Sept. 30, 2015.


DOVER DOWNS: Notified by NYSE of Non-Compliance with Standards
--------------------------------------------------------------

the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

Under NYSE rules, the Company has six months following receipt of
the notification, subject to possible extension, to regain
compliance with the minimum share price requirement or be subject

during the six-month cure period if its common stock has a closing
share price of at least $1.00 on the last trading day of any
calendar month during the period and also has an average closing
share price of at least $1.00 over the 30-trading day period ending
on the last trading day of that month.

The notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company's
common stock, which will continue to trade on the NYSE under the
symbol "DDE" but will be assigned a ".BC" indicator by the NYSE to
signify that we are not currently in compliance with NYSE continued
listing standards.

The Company has 10 business days to notify the NYSE of its intent
to cure this deficiency.  The Company intends to so notify the NYSE
on a timely basis.

EASTERN CONTINENTAL: Seeks US Recognition of UK Proceeding
----------------------------------------------------------
Ninos Koumettou, in his capacity as the liquidator and authorized
foreign representative of Eastern Continental Mining and
Development Ltd, filed a Chapter 15 bankruptcy petition (Bankr. D.
Del. Case No. 16-10121) on Jan. 18, 2016, in the United States,
seeking recognition of a proceeding commenced under the United
Kingdom's Insolvency Rules 1986.

Based in London, the Debtor was formed to explore and develop
direct investment opportunities in the Asian raw materials and
mineral resources sector.  The Debtor planned to construct networks
of mineral mining and collection, processing and shipping centers.
Its principal focus was developing opportunities in Indonesia, with
a view to exporting to other Asian economies including China,
India, Japan, and Korea.  As part of its commitment to sustainable
development, all of the Debtor's projects were tailored to advance
the interests of local communities -- a key selling points to gain
the support of the Indonesian government.  The Debtor's micro port
projects were to open isolated districts to new development
opportunities, employment opportunities and investments in local
infrastructure.  Additionally, the micro ports would also help
reduce waste and increase productivity by bringing new levels of
efficiency to an otherwise outdated trade cycle.

The Debtor looked at and evaluated over 100 potential projects.
After identifying the ones that were potentially the most
lucrative, the Debtor entered into a joint venture with the holders
of six concessions for mining from the government of Indonesia, all
of which were located on the islands of Sumatra and Java.  The
Debtor's plan was to focus initially on establishing mining and
related operations for the mining of iron sand on Java.  Iron sand
mining is the fastest and least capital intensive way to enter the
mining sector, and iron sands contain high amounts of iron and
other valuable minerals and metals.

After generating revenues through its iron sand concession on Java,
the Debtor planned to mine for iron ore on an adjacent concession
and prepare to build up additional processing for the separation
and processing of titanium dioxide from the iron sands.

To execute its plans, the Debtor needed to raise $50 million in
capital.  Signet Group LLC indicated that it had the unique
capability to raise the required funds for the Debtor.

In connection with its efforts to raise those funds, the Debtor
spent substantial sums, mainly through payments to SG, entities
affiliated with SG and/or entities with which SG had or desired to
have an ongoing working relationship.

Both Debtor and SG determined that, if the $50 million could be
raised, within 12 months of the commencement of the iron sand
project, the Debtor would have a profit of $4 million.  The Debtor
and SG further determined that in the ensuing years, the Debtor
could, through its iron sands concession, expect to have profits of
$19 million to $78 million per year.

SG proposed to raise the required funds by: (a) assembling and
acquiring a pool of life insurance policies; (b) forming an entity
to issue $500 million in notes, the obligations of which were to be
covered by proceeds from the life insurance policies; and (c) use
$50 million of the $500 million in proceeds from the notes offering
to provide the funding for Debtor's mining project.

"Unfortunately, SG was not truthful about its accomplishments and
ability to raise the necessary funds," related Kevin S. Mann, Esq.,
at Cross & Simon, LLC, counsel for the Debtor.  "SG wrongfully led
the Debtor to believe that SG had the experience and capacity to
discharge its contractual obligations when SG plainly did not.
Thus, while SG led Debtor to believe that SG had a track record of
success, that was not the case.  In actuality, SG had never
accomplished any financing of the type sought by the Debtor.  The
Debtor would not have entered into agreements with SG and incurred
over $1 million in costs if SG had not misled Debtor about SG's
accomplishments," Mr. Mann continued.

Further, the Debtor said SG breached its obligations under a
retention agreement.  The Debtor asserts SG's failure to fulfill
its obligations under the Retention Agreement has resulted in its
multi-million dollar losses.  

According to the Debtor, SG appears to have discontinued its
business and transferred its assets and operations to Cygnus LS,
LLC.  The Debtor asserts that this business scheme was an attempt
by SG and its principals to hide assets and avoid making payment to
Debtor.

On or about March 22, 2013, the Debtor filed a complaint in the
Southern District of New York against SG and several of its
individual principals alleging breach of the Retention Agreement
and fraudulent misrepresentation.  An amended complaint was filed
to add Cygnus LS, LLC as a party.  SG filed a counterclaim against
the Debtor alleging that the Debtor had breached the Retention
Agreement and owes SG in excess of $250,000.  Although several of
the parties have since been dismissed from the litigation, the case
is currently scheduled for trial beginning March 8, 2016.

As the Debtor was never able to obtain the financing necessary to
conduct its operations, on or about Jan. 13, 2016, the Debtor's
shareholders voted to voluntarily wind up the company pursuant to
the United Kingdom's Insolvency Rules 1986 and appointed Ninos
Koumettou as liquidator and foreign representative of the company.


ELBIT IMAGING: Court Dismisses Motion to Approve Derivative Claim
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The court dismissed the Motion for approval of a derivative claim
against Elbit Imaging Ltd. and its directors with no order for
legal expenses.  On Sept. 25, 2015, Mr. Shlomi Kelsi, a director of
the Company, filed the Motion which alleges, among other things, a
breach of fiduciary duty and duty of care by the Company's
directors as a result of resolutions that were taken in recent
Board meetings.
The Claim further alleges, that those resolutions should be void or
at least to be declared as voidable.  The regard resolutions mainly
concerning the approval of the board to convey a shareholders
meeting of the Company to re-elect the Company's board members, and
the convening of extraordinary general meeting in Plaza Centers NV
a subsidiary of the Company to dismiss certain directors from their
position as board members in Plaza.

Company, through its subsidiaries, also develops shopping and

Since February 2013, Elbit has intensively endeavored to come to
an arrangement with its creditors.  Elbit has said it has been
hanging by a thread for more than five months.  It has encountered
cash flow difficulties and this burdens its day to day activities,
and it certainly cannot make the necessary investments to improve
its assets.  In light of the arrangement proceedings, and
according to the demands of most of the bondholders, as well as an
agreement that was signed on March 19, 2013, between Elbit and the
Trustees of six out of eight series of bonds, Elbit is prohibited,
inter alia, from paying off its debts to the financial creditors
-- and as a result a petition to liquidate Elbit was filed, and
Bank Hapoalim has declared its debts immediately payable,
threatening to realize pledges that were given to the Bank on
material assets of the Company -- and Elbit undertook not to sell
material assets of the Company and not to perform any transaction
that is not during its ordinary course of business without giving
an advance notice to the trustees.

Accountant Rony Elroy has been appointed as expert for examining
the debt arrangement in the Company.

In July 2013, Elbit Imaging's controlling shareholders, Europe-
Israel MMS Ltd. and Mr. Mordechay Zisser, notified the Company
that the Tel Aviv District Court has appointed Adv. Giroa Erdinast
as a receiver with regards to the ordinary shares of the Company
held by Europe Israel securing Europe Israel's obligations under
its loan agreement with Bank Hapoalim B.M.  The judgment stated
that the Receiver is not authorized to sell the Company's shares
at this stage.  Following a request of Europe-Israel, the Court
also delayed any action to be taken with regards to the sale of
those shares for a period of 60 days.  Europe Israel and
Mr. Zisser have also notified the Company that they utterly reject
the Bank's claims and intend to appeal the Court's ruling.

all available options to resolve the deficiency and regain
compliance with the minimum bid price requirement.  If necessary,

the periods set forth therein.

The Company has not yet filed its interim financial statements for
the periods ended June 30, 2015, and Sept. 30, 2015, since a member
of the Company's Audit Committee (who is no longer on the Company's
Board of Directors) would not approve the filing of the June 30,
2015, Form 10-Q.  The unwillingness of the Audit Committee member
to approve the Form 10-Q filing arose from unspecified concerns.
KPMG informed the Company that they would not be able to complete
their review of the Company's interim financial statements for the
period ended June 30, 2015, until such concerns had been
independently investigated by the Company's Audit Committee or
Board of Directors.  The lack of independent representation on the
Company's Audit Committee has delayed the Company's ability to
review and investigate the reasons the former Audit Committee
member would not approve the filing of the
June 30, 2015. Form 10-Q.

On Jan. 14, 2016, the Company engaged SingerLewak LLP as its
independent registered public accounting firm, effective
immediately.  The engagement was approved by the Audit Committee on
Jan. 14, 2016.  Prior to Jan. 14, 2016, neither the Company nor
anyone acting on its behalf consulted with SingerLewak.

capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability

EPIC STORES: Auditor Raises Going Concern Doubt
-----------------------------------------------
Epic Stores Corp.'s auditors issued a going concern opinion on our
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014.  "This
means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an
on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain
additional capital to pay for our expenses.  There is no assurance
we will ever reach this point," related Brian Davidson, president,
chief executive officer, secretary, treasurer and director, and
Zach Bradford, chief financial officer and director of the company
in a regulatory filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission on November 23, 2015.

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the company reported
a net loss of $1,461,750 as compared with a net loss of $1,270,071.
At September 30, 2015, the company had total assets of $2,187,922,
total liabilities of $4,369,643 and total stockholders' deficit to
the company of $2,181,721.

Messrs. Davidson and Bradford related: "The continuation of our
business is dependent upon obtaining further financing and
achieving more profitable operations.  If we issue additional
equity securities, the equity interests of our current or future
stockholders could be significantly diluted.  Obtaining commercial
loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our
liabilities and future cash commitments.

"There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain additional
financing through private placements, and/or bank financing or
other loans necessary to support our working capital requirements.
To the extent that funds generated from operations and any private
placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are
insufficient, we will have to raise additional working capital.  No
assurance can be given that additional financing will be available,
or if available, will be on terms acceptable to us."

FREE FLOW: Cites Going Concern Doubt, Management Plans
------------------------------------------------------
Free Flow, Inc.'s independent registered public accounting firm's
report on its financial statements as of December 31, 2014, and for
each of the years in the two-year period then ended, includes a
"going concern" explanatory paragraph, that describes substantial
doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern.

"The company has not yet established itself as a stable ongoing
business entity with established revenues sufficient to cover its
operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern.  The
ability of the company to continue as a going concern is dependent
on among other things the company executing a Sales Contract that
contemplates the company selling to Salim's Paper Private Limited
30,000 metric tons of tissue paper in hand and also liquidating its
inventories and continue as a going business," Sabir Saleem, chief
executive officer, principal officer, chief financial officer and
principal accounting officer of the company, said in a regulatory
filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission dated
November 20, 2015.

Mr. Saleem pointed out: "In order to continue as a going concern,
the company will need, among other things, Sales of its skin care
product lines.  Management's plan is to obtain such sales through
Internet sales and marketing companies who specialize in promotion
of such businesses.  Management anticipates obtaining capital from
management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its
minimal operating expense and is expecting that cash flow from
sales will soon be available to augment the operating capital
needs.  However, management cannot provide an assurance that the
company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

"The ability of the company to continue as a going concern is
dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans
described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure sources
for sales to attain profitable operations."

At September 30, 2015, the company had total assets of $2,340,018,
total liabilities of $2,051,326 and total stockholders' equity of
$288,692.

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the company reported
a net loss of $11,658 as compared with a net loss of $6,273 for the
same period in 2014.

achieve profitable operations and is dependent on its ability to
raise capital from stockholders or other sources to sustain
operations and to ultimately achieve viable operations. These
factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.


GOLD RIVER: Ch. 11 Trustee Appointment Necessary, Loan Oak Asserts
------------------------------------------------------------------
Secured creditor Lone Oak Fund, LLC, maintains that grounds exist
for the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the  Central District of
California to find that the conditions to confirmation of Gold
River Valley, LLC's Plan have not been satisfied and, thus, the
Court must vacate the confirmation order conditionally confirming
the Plan.

Lone Oak asks that the Court should immediately appoint a Chapter
11 trustee or, in the alternative, advance the hearing on the
motion to appointment a Chapter 11 trustee.

According to Lone Oak, the grounds for immediate appointment of
trustee include, among other things:

   (1) current management of the Debtor, Lucy Gao, and Benjamin
Kirk have interferred with the Debtor's fidiciary duty to creditors
and the estate to sign documents necessary to close the escrow for
the sale of the property; and

   (2) the Debtor's management has failed to confirm to escrow
whether they intend to proceed with the sale of the property.

Loan Oak argues that the Debtor's arguments that the appointment of
a trustee at this time would not only be a pointless, but wasteful
exercise are undercut by the fact that the sale has not closed
because of breach of fiduciary duty and will not close in the
foreseeable future.

Elsa Horowitz, a member of the law firm of Wolf, Rifkin, Shapiro,
Schulman & Rabkin LLP, counsel for Lone Oak, submitted a
declaration in support of the motion to appoint a Chapter 11
trustee in the Debtor's case.  According to Ms. Horowitz, she
called Beatrice Wang, the escrow officer at Central Escrow, Inc.,
regarding the status of the closing of escrow on the property, and
was informed that because of the delay in escrow obtaining signed
documents from the seller's representative (Benjamin Kirk), the
buyer's loan commitment and rate lock expired.  As of Nov. 12, Ms.
Wang confirmed that the buyer had not yet obtained a new loan
commitment and had not yet locked in a new rate.

The Debtor, in its objection to the request for appointment of a
Chapter 11 trustee, argued that as a preliminary matter, a trustee
may not be appointed because, on Sept. 16, 2015, the Court entered
the order conditionally confirming the Plan.  This is because
Section 1104(a) of the Bankruptcy Code explicitly provides that a
trustee may only be appointed "before confirmation of a plan," the
Debtor asserted.

Creditors Lana Tsang and Elaine Tsang opposed the motion to appoint
a trustee, stating that there are no grounds to either appoint on
an emergency basis a trustee or convert the case.  Rather, it was
an attempt by a creditor to avoid unfavorable treatment under the
Debtor's proposed plan of reorganization and prevent the sale of
the Debtor's sole asset that would pay all creditors in full, the
Tsangs said.

The Debtor added that the motion was wholly devoid of any merit or
evidence, but instead was simply an expression of frustration of a
creditor who opposes the Debtor's efforts to cure and reinstate the
loan and pay the secured creditor off in full, but excluding
default interest.

Loan Oak, in its motion to appoint trustee, explained that it is
necessary on the grounds that the current management of the Debtor,
Lucy Gau (aka Xiangxin Gau aka Lucy Gao), and Benjamin Kirk (aka
Benny Ko, aka Benny T. Ko, aka Benny Kirk, aka Benn Ko, dba SJ 1077
LLC) have engaged in fraud and criminal forgery prior to the
commencement of the Chapter 11 case, and have conducted the
financial affairs of the Debtor in a dishonest and incompetent
manner, grossly mismanaged the Debtor's businesses, and continue to
make decisions to the detriment of its creditors as evidenced by
the "compromise" reached with the Tsangs by shifting their personal
liability to the Debtor and granting the Tsangs a junior secured
claim against the Debtor's real property for $3,112,297 and by its
filing of motion for confirmation of the Debtor's Plan.

HALCON RESOURCES: Hosts General Update Conference Call

                      About Halcon Resources

Halcon Resources Corporation acquires, produces, explores and

As of Sept. 30, 2015, the Company had $4.25 billion in total
assets, $3.62 billion in total liabilities, $156 million in
redeemable noncontrolling interest and $473 million in total
stockholders' equity.

                           *     *      *

As reported by the TCR on Jan. 27, 2015, Moody's Investors Service
downgraded Halcon's Corporate Family Rating to 'Caa1' from 'B3' and
the Probability of Default Rating to 'Caa1-PD' from 'B3-PD'.  The
downgrade reflects growing risk for Halcon's business profile
because of high financial leverage and limited liquidity as its
existing hedges roll-off and stop contributing to its borrowing
base over the next 12-18 months.

In September 2015, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its
corporate credit rating on Oklahoma City-based Halcon Resource
Corp. to 'SD' (selective default) from 'B-'.  "The downgrade
follows Halcon's announcement that it reached an agreement with
holders of portions of its senior unsecured notes to exchange the
notes for new senior secured third-lien notes," said Standard &
Poor's credit analyst Ben Tsocanos.

KEMET CORP: Royce & Associates Has 8% Stake as of Dec. 31
---------------------------------------------------------
In an amended Schedule 13G filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, Royce & Associates, LLC disclosed that as of Dec. 31,
2015, it beneficially owns 3,685,347 shares of common stock of
KEMET Corporation representing 8.05 percent of the shares
outstanding.  A copy of the regulatory filing is available for free
at http://is.gd/zKMUBH

                           About KEMET

KEMET, based in Greenville, South Carolina, is a manufacturer and
supplier of passive electronic components, specializing in
tantalum, multilayer ceramic, film, solid aluminum, electrolytic,
and paper capacitors.  KEMET's common stock is listed on the NYSE
under the symbol "KEM."

As of Sept. 30, 2015, the Company had $739 million in total assets,
$609 million in total liabilities, and $130 million in total
stockholders' equity.

                           *     *     *

As reported by the TCR on March 26, 2013, Moody's Investors
Service downgraded KEMET Corp.'s Corporate Family Rating to 'Caa1'
from 'B2' and the Probability of Default Rating to 'Caa1-PD' from
'B2- PD' based on Moody's expectation that KEMET's liquidity will
be pressured by maturing liabilities and negative free cash flow
due to the interest burden and continued operating losses at the
Film and Electrolytic segment.

As reported by the TCR on Aug. 9, 2013, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services lowered its corporate credit rating on KEMET to 'B-' from
'B+'.  "The downgrade is based on continued top-line and margin
pressures and lagging results from the restructuring of the Film &
Electrolytic [F&E] business, which combined with cyclical weak
end-market demand, has resulted in sustained, elevated leverage
well in excess of 5x, persistent negative FOCF, and diminishing
liquidity," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Alfred
Bonfantini.

The TCR reported in August 2014 that S&P revised its outlook on
KEMET to 'stable' from 'negative'.  S&P affirmed the ratings,
including the 'B-' corporate credit rating.

LOTON CORP: Deficit, Net Loss Raise Going Concern Doubt
-------------------------------------------------------
Loton, Corp. had an accumulated deficit at Sept. 30, 2015, a net
loss and net cash used in operating activities for the reporting
period then ended.

"These factors raise substantial doubt about the company's ability
to continue as a going concern," said Robert Ellin, executive
chairman and president, and Barry Regenstein, interim chief
financial officer of the company in a regulatory filing with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 23, 2015.

"Prior to the merger with KoKo (Camden) Holdings (US), Inc., the
company was seeking a suitable candidate for a business
combination; however, notwithstanding the company's cash position
may not be sufficient to support the company's daily operations.
While the company believes in the viability of its strategy and in
its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurance to
that effect.  The ability of the company to continue as a going
concern is dependent on the company's ability to execute its
strategy and in its ability to raise additional funds."

At Sept. 30, 2015, the company had total assets of $2,066,260,
total liabilities of $7,261,623 and total deficit of $5,195,363.

For the three months ended, the company recorded a net loss
attributable to stockholders of $1,886,394 as compared with a net
loss attributable to stockholders of $813,720 for the quarter ended
September 30, 2014.

LYONDELL CHEMICAL: Court Junk Counts 14, 19 in Suit vs. Blavatnik
-----------------------------------------------------------------
In an Amended Complaint, Edward S. Weisfelner, the trustee of the
LB Litigation Trust, asserts a total of 21 claims against
defendants Leonard Blavatnik, et al., including charges of breaches
of fiduciary duty; the aiding and abetting of those alleged
breaches; intentional and constructive fraudulent conveyances,
unlawful dividends, and a host of additional bases for recovery
under state law, the Bankruptcy Code, and the laws of Luxembourg,
under which several of the Basell entities were organized.  The
Complaint also seeks to equitably subordinate the defendants'
claims that might otherwise be allowed.

The the Trustee's Complaint, in turn, engendered a large number of
motions to dismiss.  This is one of several opinions ruling on
those motions -- here relating to Counts 14 and 19.

Those counts relate to a shareholder distribution of EUR100 million
Basell made on December 7, 2007, about two weeks before the closing
of the Merger (the "December Distribution"), that allegedly drained
Basell of the capital that it would soon desperately need to
continue in operation and meet its obligations.  In Count 14, the
Trustee seeks to hold various defendants, including BI S.a.r.l.,
the parent of Basell before the Merger, liable for
extra-contractual tort under Articles 1382 and 1383 of the
Luxembourg Civil Code for approving the December Distribution.  In
Count 19, the Trustee seeks to avoid and recover the December
Distribution as a fraudulent transfer.

Defendant BI S.a.r.l. moves to dismiss Counts 14 and 19 for lack of
personal jurisdiction, and to dismiss Count 19 for failure to state
a claim, on grounds that the avoidance powers of section 548 of the
Bankruptcy Code do not apply to the December Distribution because
it was an extraterritorial transaction.

In a Decision and Order dated January 4, 2016, which is available
at http://is.gd/t4ByU8from Leagle.com, Judge Robert E. Gerber of
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New
York:

   (1) granted BI S.a.r.l.'s motion to dismiss Counts 14 and 19 for
lack of personal jurisdiction, but grants leave to the Trustee to
amend the Complaint to remedy its jurisdictional deficiencies;

   (2) denied BI S.a.r.l.'s motion to dismiss Count 19 for failure
to state a claim upon which relief can be granted; and

   (3) the Trustee's request to conduct further jurisdictional
discovery is denied.

                          Lyondell Chemical

LyondellBasell Industries is one of the world's largest polymers,
petrochemicals and fuels companies.  Luxembourg-based Basell AF
and Lyondell Chemical Company merged operations in 2007 to form
LyondellBasell Industries, the world's third largest independent
chemical company.  LyondellBasell became saddled with debt as
part of the US$12.7 billion merger.  Len Blavatnik's Access
Industries owned the Company prior to its bankruptcy filing.

On Jan. 6, 2009, LyondellBasell Industries' U.S. operations,
led by Lyondell Chemical Co., and one of its European holding
companies -- Basell Germany Holdings GmbH -- filed voluntary
petitions to reorganize under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy
Code to facilitate a restructuring of the company's debts.  The
case is In re Lyondell Chemical Company, et al., Bankr. S.D.N.Y.
Lead Case No. 09-10023).  Seventy-nine Lyondell entities filed
for Chapter 11.  Luxembourg-based LyondellBasell Industries AF
S.C.A. and another affiliate were voluntarily added to Lyondell
Chemical's reorganization filing under Chapter 11 protection on
April 24, 2009.

Deryck A. Palmer, Esq., at Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP, in
New York, served as the Debtors' bankruptcy counsel.  Evercore
Partners served as financial advisors, and Alix Partners and its
subsidiary AP Services LLC, served as restructuring advisors.
AlixPartners' Kevin M. McShea acted as the Debtors' Chief
Restructuring Officer.  Clifford Chance LLP served as
restructuring advisors to the European entities.

LyondellBasell emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in
May 2010, with a plan that provides the Company with US$3 billion
of opening liquidity.  A new parent company, LyondellBasell
Industries N.V., incorporated in the Netherlands, is the
successor of the former parent company, LyondellBasell Industries
AF S.C.A., a Luxembourg company that is no longer part of
LyondellBasell.  LyondellBasell Industries N.V. owns and operates
substantially the same businesses as the previous parent company,
including subsidiaries that were not involved in the bankruptcy
cases.  LyondellBasell's corporate seat is Rotterdam,
Netherlands, with administrative offices in Houston and
Rotterdam.


LYONDELL CHEMICAL: Court Junks Bid to Recharacterize $750MM Loan
----------------------------------------------------------------
In an Amended Complaint, Edward S. Weisfelner, the trustee of the
LB Litigation Trust asserts a total of 21 claims against the
defendants Leonard Blavatnik, et al in this action. The 21 claims
variously charge breaches of fiduciary duty; the aiding and
abetting of those alleged breaches; intentional and constructive
fraudulent conveyances, unlawful dividends, and a host of
additional bases for recovery under state law, the Bankruptcy Code,
and the laws of Luxembourg, under which several of the Basell
entities were organized.  The Complaint also seeks to equitably
subordinate defendants' claims that might otherwise be allowed.

The Trustee's Complaint, in turn, engendered a large number of
motions to dismiss. This is one of several opinions ruling on those
motions -- here relating to Counts 12, 15, and 16.

Those counts relate to a $750 million revolving credit facility
(the "Revolver") -- one of several debt facilities into which the
Debtors ultimately entered -- under which the Resulting Company,
Lyondell and Basell Finance Company, B.V. ("Basell Finance") were
the borrowers and Access Industries Holdings LL and its assignee AI
International, S.a.r.l. ("AI International") were the lenders.  The
Revolver was put into place following the Merger in an attempt to
supply Lyondell with much-needed liquidity.  Count 12 charges the
Lenders with breach of the Revolver agreement by reason of their
failure to fund upon a draw request in December 2008, shortly
before the Debtors' chapter 11 filing.  Counts 15 seeks to
recharacterize the Revolver as equity, and, assuming the Revolver
debt is recharacterized as equity, to impose liability against the
post-Merger Board of Directors of Lyondell for unlawful dividends
based on the repayment of the Revolver debt.

The Lenders assume potential liability under Count 12 for 12(b)(6)
purposes, but seek to dismiss Count 12 under provisions of the
Revolver documentation exempting them from liability for any
special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages related to
this Agreement. And the Lyondell Post-Merger Directors move to
dismiss the Trustee's recharacterization claim in Count 15, and
then the illegal dividend claims in Count 16 that might exist if
the recharacterization claims were upheld.

In a Decision and Order dated January 4, 2016, which is available
at http://is.gd/RwD2Bxfrom Leagle.com, Judge Robert E. Gerber of
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New
York:

   (1) Denied the motion to dismiss Count 12 to the extent Count 12
seeks restitutionary damages, but grants the motion to the extent
Count 12 seeks damages of other types;

   (2) Granted the motion to dismiss Count 15, seeking
recharacterization; and

   (3) Granted the motion to dismiss Count 16, charging illegal
dividends.

Irving, Texas-based MHRC, an oil and gas company that primarily
engaged, through its subsidiaries, in the acquisition, development,
and production of oil and natural gas reserves in the United
States, said these macroeconomic factors, coupled with the their
substantial debt obligations and natural gas gathering and
transportation costs, strained their ability to sustain the weight
of their capital structure and devote the capital necessary to
maintain and grow their businesses.  The Debtors' total number of
drilling rigs in operation in the United States is just 38 percent
of the number of rigs that were in operation just one year ago,
Court filing indicates.

Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation and 19 of its affiliates filed
Chapter 11 bankruptcy petitions (Bankr. D. Del. Proposed Lead Case
No. 15-12533) on Dec. 15, 2015.  The petition was signed by Gary C.
Evans as chairman and chief executive officer.

The Debtors have engaged Kirkland & Ellis, LLP as their general
counsel, Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones LLP as local counsel, PJT
Partners, LP as investment banker, Alvarez & Marsal North America,

2015, it beneficially owns 6,100,965 shares of Class A Common Stock
of The McClatchy Company representing 9.93 percent of the shares
outstanding.  A copy of the regulatory filing is available for free

                   About The McClatchy Company

Sacramento, Cal.-based The McClatchy Company (NYSE: MNI)
-- http://www.mcclatchy.com/-- is a media company that provides
both print and digital news and advertising services.  Its

                           *     *     *

McClatchy carries a 'Caa1' corporate family rating from Moody's
Investors Service.  In May 2011, Moody's changed the rating
outlook from stable to positive following the company's
announcement that it closed on the sale of land in Miami for
$236 million.  The outlook change reflects Moody's expectation
that McClatchy will utilize the net proceeds to reduce debt,
including its underfunded pension position, which will reduce
leverage by approximately half a turn and lower required
contributions to the pension plan over the next few years.

As reported by the TCR on April 2, 2014, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services affirmed all ratings on U.S. newspaper company The
McClatchy Co., including the 'B-' corporate credit rating, and
revised the rating outlook to stable from positive.  The outlook
revision to stable reflects S&P's expectation that the
timeframe for a potential upgrade lies beyond the next 12 months,
and could also depend on the company realizing value from its
digital minority interests.


MCDERMOTT INT'L: Moody's Lowers Corp Family Rating to 'B1'
----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded McDermott International,
Inc.'s corporate family rating (CFR) to B1 from Ba3, its
probability of default rating to B1-PD from Ba3-PD, its senior
secured first lien credit facility rating to Ba2 from Ba1 and its
senior secured notes rating to B2 from B1. At the same time, the
Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating of SGL-3 is unchanged. The
ratings downgrades reflects the increased risks of project
cancellations and delays and reduced capital spending in the
upstream oil & gas sector due to the recent plunge in oil prices.
This has increased the possibility that McDermott's operating
results, liquidity and credit metrics could deteriorate in the
medium term. The ratings outlook is stable.

The following rating action was taken:

Corporate Family Rating, downgraded to B1 from Ba3;

Probability of Default Rating, downgraded to B1-PD from Ba3-PD;

$820 million senior secured first lien credit facilities,
downgraded to Ba2 (LGD2) from Ba1 (LGD2);

$500 million senior secured 2nd lien notes, downgraded to B2 (LGD4)
from B1 (LGD4)

Unchanged:

Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, Unchanged at SGL-3

Outlook Actions:

Outlook, changed to Stable from Negative

RATINGS RATIONALE

McDermott's B1 corporate family rating reflects its focus on the
highly cyclical and competitive offshore E&C industry and its
exposure to large, fixed-price contracts on complex projects in
harsh environments that are susceptible to execution issues and
cost overruns and have relatively low margin for error due to
competitive bidding primarily against larger and more diversified
companies. Furthermore, the rating reflects the increased risks of
project cancellations and delays and reduced capital spending in
the upstream oil & gas sector due to the recent plunge in oil
prices. The rating also considers McDermott's good market position
in a niche segment and its strong relationship with national oil
companies, its enhanced focus on cost control, project risk
management and execution, and its adequate liquidity, which
provides a cushion against the downside risks inherent in its
business.

The nature of McDermott's business, which includes sizeable fixed
priced offshore and subsea oil & gas projects, lends itself to
volatility in orders, project timing, revenues and profitability
and encompasses high execution risk. These risks were evident in
2013 and 2014 when project bidding and execution issues led to
losses on certain projects and a very weak operating performance.
However, McDermott has enjoyed a strong turnaround in 2015,
supported by work on the $2 billion-plus Inpex Ichthys project and
brownfield projects for Saudi Aramco. The company has also
benefitted from improved operational execution, cost cutting and
efficiency improvement initiatives and its enhanced focus on
customer relations, leading to successful change-order
negotiations. Therefore, we expect the company to achieve adjusted
EBITDA in the range of $320 million - $350 million in 2015 versus
$174 million in 2014.

McDermott's strong relationships with National Oil Companies (NOCs)
has enabled it to maintain a healthy backlog of orders and a pretty
good revenue pipeline, despite significantly reduced E&P spending.
McDermott's relationships with NOCs in the Middle East, especially
Saudi Aramco (unrated), enabled the company to raise its backlog of
orders to $4.4 billion as of September 2015. That is the highest
backlog in the past 18 months and represents about 1.4x McDermott's
trailing 12-month revenues of $3.2 billion. About $2.4 billion of
the backlog is scheduled to be completed in 2016 and provides a
downside buffer for the year's operating results.

McDermott's healthy order backlog, along with its enhanced focus on
operational execution and incremental cost reductions, should
support its 2016 operating performance. However, the magnitude of
the benefits achieved in 2015 are not likely to be repeated in 2016
and the opportunity for short-cycle work will be limited by weak
industry conditions. As a result, Moody's anticipates its operating
results are likely to deteriorate moderately in 2016. The weaker
operating performance combined with up front working capital
investments on new projects and final spending on new vessels will
weaken its credit profile. McDermott's adjusted leverage ratio
(Debt/EBITDA) could rise towards 4.0x in December 2016 from 3.3x in
September 2015 and its interest coverage ratio (EBITA/Interest
Expense) could decline to about 1.0x from 1.8x.

McDermott is expected to maintain adequate liquidity, as reflected
in the SGL-3 rating. The company had an unrestricted cash balance
of $631 million as of September 30, 2015. It also had $136 million
of restricted cash, with about $116 million of that cash
collateralized for performance and financial letters of credit.
This cash could become unrestricted if McDermott used availability
on its $520 million letter of credit facility to enhance its
liquidity, since this facility had only $320 million in letters of
credit issued as of September 2015. McDermott expects to produce
negative free cash flow in the range of $165 million - $220 million
between September 2015 and December 2016, but plans to maintain at
least $500 million of unrestricted cash.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that McDermott's
operating results and credit metrics may deteriorate moderately in
the medium term, but are likely be supported by its strong backlog
of work and healthy bid pipeline with national oil companies and
remain commensurate with the B1 rating.

Given the expectation for negative free cash generation and
moderately weaker operating results and credit metrics, upside
rating movement in the medium term is unlikely. However, should
McDermott be able to generate positive free cash flow and achieve
improved credit metrics including EBITA-to-Interest above 2.25x and
Debt/EBITDA below 4.0x, then a change in rating could be
considered.

A downgrade could be considered if McDermott continues to generate
negative free cash flow and its operating results and credit
metrics deteriorate more substantially than expected in the near
term. Downside triggers would include a material contraction in
liquidity, the interest coverage ratio declining below 1.5x or the
leverage ratio exceeding 5.0x.

McDermott International, Inc. (McDermott) is a full-service
engineering and construction company that provides fully integrated
EPCI (engineer, procure, construct and install) services
exclusively to the upstream offshore oil & gas sector. McDermott
provides both shallow water and deep water construction services
and delivers and installs fixed and floating production facilities
and subsea infrastructure. Its customers include national, major
integrated and other oil and gas companies. During the twelve
months ended September 30, 2015 the company reported revenues of
approximately $3.2 billion with about 51% generated in the Asia
(ASA) segment, 34% in The Middle East (MEA) segment and 15% in the
Americas, Europe and Africa (AEA) segment.

METINVEST B.V.: Seeking U.S. Recognition of English Proceeding
--------------------------------------------------------------
Svitlana Romanova, in her capacity as foreign representative of
Metinvest B.V., filed a Chapter 15 bankruptcy petition in the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (Bankr. D. Del. Case
No. 16-10105) on Jan. 13, 2016, in the United States, seeking
recognition of a scheme of arrangement under part 26 of the English
Companies Act 2006 currently pending before the High Court of
Justice of England and Wales.

The Debtor and its subsidiaries claim to be the largest vertically
integrated mining and steel business in Ukraine.  

Joseph M Barry, Esq., at Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor, LLP,
counsel for the petitioner, said the Metinvest Group has struggled
in recent years in light of the ongoing political turmoil in
Ukraine since the end of 2013, which has negatively impacted
Ukraine's economy and the protracted slump in prices for steel
products, coal, and iron ore throughout much of 2014 and 2015.

Mr. Barry related that the geopolitical tensions in Ukraine have
decreased demand from the global investor base in the region, and
the Debtor has therefore been unable to obtain funding from the
international or domestic capital and loan markets to refinance
existing indebtedness.  The combination of decreased earnings from
operations and the inability to raise new capital has created a
liquidity crisis for the Debtor rendering it unable to repay its
debts at this time and maintain operations.

On June 26, 2015, the Debtor successfully obtained a consensual
waiver in respect of three series of Eurobond notes with an
aggregate outstanding principal amount of approximately $1.12
billion.  However, one series of the Notes with an aggregate
outstanding principal amount of $85,238,250, and bearing interest
at an annual rate of 10.25%, which was originally scheduled to
mature on May 20, 2015, but was deferred in the consensual waiver,
is now coming due on Jan. 31, 2016.  The failure to pay at such
maturity date would result in various cross-defaults enabling
holders of the Notes to accelerate outstanding obligations and
pursue remedies against the Debtor.  

"Without provisional relief, the Debtor could be forced to cease
operations and ultimately liquidate assets at forced sale values to
the detriment of all stakeholders," Mr. Barry said in a document
filed with the Court.

According to the Debtor, it has been and remains fully committed to
working collaboratively with its creditors to achieve a
comprehensive restructuring of its indebtedness.  However, with the
impending Jan. 31, 2016, maturity date for one series of the Notes,
the Debtor said it does not have sufficient time to finalize and
implement a proposed restructuring.  

As a result, the Debtor is seeking to implement a temporary
moratorium pursuant to the Scheme against creditor action to
provide the stability necessary for it to negotiate and finalize a
restructuring of its indebtedness and preserve operations for the
benefit of all stakeholders.

The Foreign Representative has commenced this Chapter 15 case
seeking aid in respect of the English Proceeding to ensure the
successful implementation of the Scheme.  If the Scheme is not
enforced on a provisional basis before Jan. 31, 2016, the Debtor
will face potential adverse creditor actions in the United States
pending resolution of the Petition by holders of the Notes and the
effectiveness of the Scheme will be severely compromised.

The petitioner has engaged Young, Conaway, Stargatt & Taylor and
Allen & Overy LLP as her as counsel.  

Judge Laurie Selber Silverstein has been assigned the case.

MNP PETROLEUM: Raises Going Concern Doubt, Needs More Funding
-------------------------------------------------------------
MNP Petroleum Corporation and its subsidiaries (the group) have no
operating income and therefore will remain dependent upon continued
funding from its shareholders or other sources, according to Dr.
Werner Ladwein, chief executive officer, president and director,
and Peter-Mark Vogel, chief financial officer, treasurer and
secretary of the company in a November 23, 2015 regulatory filing
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The company's cash balance as of Sept. 30, 2015 was US$212,491, of
which US$97,998 has been restricted leaving a balance of
US$114,493.

"These matters raise substantial doubt about the group's ability to
continue as a going concern," Messrs. Ladwein and Vogel stated.

The officers elaborated: "Based on the group's expected monthly
burn rate of US$352,364 on basic operational activities, management
estimates that the company has sufficient working capital to fund
operations for less than one month.

"In order to continue to fund operations for the next twelve months
and implement the work program for the group's projects in Central
Asia as well as to finance continuing operations, the group will
require further funds.

"On October 29, 2015 the company entered into an Investment
Agreement with Seven and Seven IST Petro Kimya (Seven & Seven)
providing for a staged private placement of equity and convertible
debt for gross proceeds of up to EUR250 million (approx. US$266
million).  Both parties are working on closing the transaction.

"Seven & Seven and its subsidiaries have investments and had
investments in energy and oil and gas operations in Kazakhstan and
the Middle East as well as other investments in various industry
sectors.  Seven & Seven is incorporated under the laws of Turkey

"If the company is not able to raise the required funds, it may
consider other alternatives, including a possible farm-out of one
or more of its projects in order to reduce short term financial
commitments.  If the company is unable to obtain the funding that
it needs or arrive at an acceptable alternative solution, the
company will not be able to continue its business.  In addition,
any equity financing may be dilutive to shareholders, and debt
financing, if available, will increase expenses and may involve

MOLYCORP INC: Ch. 11 Judge Won't Delay Hunt for Bloomberg Leaks
---------------------------------------------------------------
Jeff Montgomery at Bankruptcy Law360 reported that a Delaware
bankruptcy judge flatly rejected Bloomberg News' request to delay a
court-ordered search for the source of news leaks involving
Molycorp Inc.'s contentious $1.9 billion Chapter 11 plan, bringing
warnings that the decision would chill public-interest
newsgathering.

According to the report, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher S.
Sontchi denied without elaboration a request from Bloomberg to
delay for 48 hours a collection of sworn statements from more than
120 people about any contacts they had with Bloomberg reporters.
The order also sought details about communication with reporters
and any knowledge those covered by the order have about the leaks.

The Law360 report relates that Bloomberg published three articles
in December and January citing information from unnamed sources
about responses to a proposed asset sale and the results of
court-ordered mediation.

Judge Sontchi previously approved an order giving those named five
days to provide statements on the leaks, at risk of perjury.

"The order issued by the Delaware bankruptcy court last Thursday
strikes at the heart of the First Amendment and the fundamental
mission of a free press: to provide transparency into important
public events, including the bankruptcy of the largest rare-earths
producer in the U.S.," Bloomberg Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait
said in an emailed statement.

Bloomberg's attorneys in a court filing described the court order
as "overly broad" and vague.

Luc A. Despins, an attorney for Molycorp's ad hoc committee of
unsecured creditors, said after Judge Sontchi's ruling that
attorneys for all committees covered by the order had agreed to its
terms.

"The parties to that consent order consented to the filing of those
declarations," Mr. Despins said.

But the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press said in an
amicus brief that complex news stories, such as bankruptcies, gain
substance and meaning from confidential sources.

"There is little doubt that many of the individuals who can
thoughtfully discuss important business, financial and bankruptcy
issues with reporters will be fearful to speak to reporters in the
future" if they hear about the court's hunt, the committee said in
a letter to Judge Sontchi.

The letter was signed by The Associated Press, First Look Media
Inc., Gannett Co. Inc., The McClatchy Company, National Public
Radio Inc., Tribune Publishing Company and The Washington Post.

After Judge Sontchi's ruling, Molycorp wrestled with plans for a
looming, epic court fight over Oaktree Capital Management LP's role
as a company lender both before and after the bankruptcy filing.  

The unsecured creditors committee filed a 123-page, 16-count
adversary complaint accusing Oaktree, associated companies and
Molycorp directors and officers of everything from fiduciary
failings to fraud.

Molycorp's possible stalking horse asset sale, meanwhile, are
scheduled to be received by March 4, with voting on the
reorganization plan set for March 14 and the confirmation hearing
scheduled for March 28.


MOLYCORP INC: Creditors Object to Proposed Bidding Procedures
-------------------------------------------------------------
UMB Bank, N.A., as successor to 10% Notes Indenture Trustee, the Ad
Hoc 10% Noteholders, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
objected to Molycorp, Inc., et al.'s motion seeking approval of
bidding procedures for the sale of the Debtors' assets because the
current proposed bidding procedures do not appropriately account
for credit bid and related rights associated with the 10% Notes and
suggest an aggressive timeline to attempt a sale of the Debtors'
assets without any meaningful showing that a compressed schedule
will nonetheless permit a viable marketing process.

In their Objection, the Creditors demanded that the approval of the
Bidding Procedures be conditioned on modifications that, among
other things, confirm any credit bid rights as to the Shared
Collateral that must be vested in the Collateral Agent and
otherwise ensure that the Bidding Procedures are consistent with
the terms of the Collateral Agency Agreement.  Furthermore, the
Creditors demanded that they should be included as a Consultation
Party and that Oaktree should not be eligible to receive bidder
incentives.

The Committee added that the approval of the Bidding Procedures
Motion at this time is premature considering that the Court is
faced with competing motions that could result in the termination
of the exclusive periods for the Debtors. In addition, the
Committee avers that the Debtors obtained an extension of the DIP
maturity date by Oaktree for which the Mediation has not yet
concluded, which means the DIP maturity date has not yet been
established. The hearing on the Bidding Procedures Motion should be
adjourned until the exclusivity issues are resolved, the Committee
claimed. The Committee further complained that the Oaktree Plan and
Disclosure Agreement are the result of extensive negotiations only
with Oaktree as admitted by the Debtors themselves.

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as collateral agent, agrees
with the Objectors' request to the extent that the Collateral Agent
is vested with the right to credit bid with respect to the Shared
Collateral on behalf of the 10% Notes Indenture Trustee and Oaktree
together, the "Secured Parties" and that the Bidding Procedures
must be consistent with the terms of the Collateral Agency
Agreement and if vested with the right to credit bid for the Shared
Collateral, the Collateral Agent exercises such right only in
accordance with the terms of the Collateral Agency Agreement.  The
Collateral Agent reserves its right to object to any modifications
to the Bidding Procedures to the extent such modifications may
alter, impair, restrict, or otherwise contravene the relative
rights, priorities, and obligations of the Secured Parties and the
Collateral Agent under the Collateral Agency Agreement.

In response to the objections, the Debtors and Oaktree pointed out
that prior to the court-mandated mediation for the Plan and the
Bidding Procedures, Oaktree had already made numerous concessions
as part of the originally proposed Plan and Bidding Procedures and
has agreed to additional concessions as part of an amended Plan and
Bidding Procedures that are submitted in connection with the
Debtors' reply to the objections.  Contrary to the Objectors'
accusations, the Plan reflects a series of compromises and
concessions from Oaktree, including, among other things: Extension
of the DIP Facility Maturity Date from January 31, 2016 until March
22, 2016; Permitting a Dual-Track Sale and Plan Process; Equitizing
the DIP Facility and Oaktree's Prepetition Claims; Mountain Pass
Sale Concessions including a $30 million release price for the
equipment owned by Oaktree substantially below the $140 million
acquisition cost; Oaktree Consideration for General Unsecured
Creditors; and Make-Whole Settlement where Oaktree has agreed to
reduce the amount of its Make-Whole Claims by up to approximately
$11 million in the event of a positive sale outcome that realizes
value that results in Oaktree being oversecured. In sum, the
Objectors are already receiving nearly everything they have
requested in terms of process including the 10% Noteholders
Groupā€™s right to credit bid consistent with the applicable
documents, significant consultations rights and Oaktreeā€™s
agreement to extend the maturity of the DIP Facility.

Throughout these Chapter 11 cases, the Committee and the 10%
Noteholders have been highly litigious, contesting almost every
decision the Debtors have made.  To get to this point, the Debtors
considered all of Objectors' alternatives, and have been open to
any viable alternatives that the Committee and the 10% Noteholders
may propose but to date, no viable proposals have been forthcoming
from these parties.  As to an alternative DIP Facility, the
proposed financing facility from the 10% Noteholders, is a facility
that is structurally senior to Oaktree that would require a risky
litigation strategy that may prove unsuccessful at a time when, if
not approved, the Debtors have no time or resources to recover and
get back on a path to confirming a chapter 11 plan prior to the
expiration of their existing DIP Facility.

MOLYCORP: Court Okays March 4 Auction for Assets
------------------------------------------------
Judge Christopher S. Sontchi of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware approved bidding procedures proposed by

NEW GULF: Trims $2.5M Plan Operating Fund After Objections
----------------------------------------------------------
Jeff Montgomery at Bankruptcy Law360 reported that faced with
objections from another bankrupt oil and gas producer, New Gulf
Resources temporarily cut $2.5 million from its latest Chapter 11
plan operating fund request, and attorneys said in Delaware
bankruptcy court that the company would quickly amend disclosures
to clarify the issue.

The moves came after Texas-based Energy & Exploration Partners LLC
objected to alleged New Gulf failures to clearly protect ENXP's
secured claims, including one involving as much as $15 million
arising from a joint operating agreement in Texas.

                     About New Gulf Resources

New Gulf Resources, LLC, NGR Holding Company LLC, NGR Texas, LLC
and NGR Finance Corp. filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy petitions (Bankr.
D. Del. Proposed Lead Case No. 15-12566) on Dec. 17, 2015.
The petition was signed by Danni Morris as chief financial
officer.

Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, New Gulf is
an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the
acquisition, development, exploration and production of oil and
natural gas properties, focused primarily in the East Texas Basin.

The Company currently employs 55 people.

The Debtors have engaged Baker Botts L.L.P., as bankruptcy counsel,
Young, Conaway, Stargatt & Taylor, LLP as co-counsel,
Barclays Capital Inc., as investment banker, Zolfo Cooper, LLC as
financial advisor, and Prime Clerk LLC as claims and notice agent.
Judge Brendan Linehan Shannon has been assigned the case.


NEWLEAD HOLDINGS: Commercial Performance of MT Sofia in 2015
------------------------------------------------------------
NewLead Holdings Ltd. announced a review of the commercial
performance of one of its bitumen tanker vessels, the MT Sofia in
2015.

The Sofia is a 2008-built bitumen tanker vessel of 2,888 dwt and is
one of the five bitumen tanker vessels that were delivered to
NewLead's fleet during the fourth quarter of 2014.

In 2015, the Sofia traded in the spot market under consecutive
voyages.  From January to December 2015, the Vessel completed
twenty different voyage charter agreements and twenty-nine
different voyages.  During the same period, the Vessel transported
approximately 76,785 metric tons of bitumen stored and delivered at
temperatures above 180 degrees Celsius.

The Sofia has been trading mainly in the Central and East
Mediterranean and the Black Sea areas with the Vessel loading in
Greece and Italy and discharging in Greece, Lebanon, Cyprus, Libya,
Romania, Egypt and Turkey at oil major refineries.

Upon delivery of the Sofia to NewLead, the Company invested in the
maintenance and improvement of the Vessel's condition so as to
become more attractive to charterers.  NewLead improved the intake
capacity of the Vessel, as well as the fuel efficiency for steaming
and heating that resulted from the installation of new high
specification equipment and the continuous efforts of the
specialized crew on board the Vessel.

Mr. Michael Zolotas, chairman and chief executive officer of
NewLead, stated, "The employment efficiency of Sofia in 2015 was
the result of NewLead's effective commercial, operational and
technical management.  The adaptive but prudent chartering
strategy, the flexible operational performance together with the
successful vetting of the vessel by principal oil majors and oil
traders led to the enhanced and continuous attraction by reliable
and reputable charterers.  In 2015, the Sofia was constantly
employed at competitive market rates while the vessel traded in a
highly demanding and competitive market area that continues to
remain one of the most active bitumen trading areas worldwide."

Mr. Zolotas, added: "Global asphalt trade is rising both regionally
and globally and is expected to increase over the period 2016-2020
due to tight supply.  Bitumen prices are getting more competitive
since they are directly related to oil prices.  I believe increased
funding for road infrastructure in all developed and developing
countries is expected to increase demand for bitumen in the next
four years."

NewLead has 6.82% and 55.75% of its operating days covered for 2016
for the dry-bulk and bitumen tanker vessels, respectively.

                     About NewLead Holdings Ltd.

Based in Athina, Greece, NewLead Holdings Ltd. --
http://www.newleadholdings.com/-- is an international, vertically
integrated shipping company that owns and manages product tankers
and dry bulk vessels.  NewLead currently controls 22 vessels,
including six double-hull product tankers and 16 dry bulk vessels
of which two are newbuildings.  NewLead's common shares are traded
under the symbol "NEWL" on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.

Newlead reported a net loss attributable to the Company's
shareholders of $100 million on $12.6 million of revenues for the
year ended Dec. 31, 2014, compared to a net loss attributable to
the Company's shareholders of $158 million on $7.34 million of
revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2013.

As of Dec. 31, 2014, the Company had $190 million in total assets,
$300 million in total liabilities, and a $110 million total
shareholders' deficit.

Cherry Bekaert LLP, in Charlotte, North Carolina, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2014, citing that the Company has
incurred a net loss, has negative cash flows from operations,
negative working capital, an accumulated deficit and has defaulted
under its credit facility agreements resulting in all of its debt
being reclassified to current liabilities all of which raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.


NYC CONSTRUCTORS: Gets Nod for Up to $3 Million Stopgap Financing
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Jonathan Randles at Bankruptcy Law360 reported that NYC
Constructors Inc., a firm assisting in the construction of the 3
World Trade Center office tower in lower Manhattan, obtained
stopgap financing from a New York bankruptcy judge in order to
continue its operations after running into liquidity problems.

The Debtor got interim approval from the court to tap bankruptcy
financing worth up to $3 million provided by lender Banker Steel.

Approval of the bankruptcy financing came during a first day court
hearing in New York Constructors' bankruptcy.

Prior to the bankruptcy filing, Banker Steel provided New York
Constructors with $2 million in funding and holds a lien on the
debtor's assets, according to court documents.  Banker Steel has
submitted a stalking horse bid for New York Constructor's assets.

An attorney for NYC Constructors told U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Shelley
Chapman that the company ran into liquidity problems after entering
into a fixed-price contract with WTC contractor Tishman Realty &
Construction.  Unable to acquire funding to complete the job,
Tishman advised New York Constructors last month that it would cut
funding to the project if the company didn't meet certain
conditions under the deal.

"The debtors knew they couldn't finish [the job] without losing a
tremendous amount of money," said Scott Markowitz of Tarter Krinsky
& Drogin LLP, who is representing the debtors.

New York Constructors began working on the World Trade Center after
purchasing in 2014 assets held by steel contractor DCM Erectors
after that company's chief executive Larry Davis was indicted on
fraud charges.

                      About NYC Constructors

NYC Constructors Inc. and its subsidiary, MRP, LLC, are under
contract to install steel at the 3 World Trade Center tower.
Besides work at 3 World Trade Center, New York Constructors said in
court documents that it has active steel erection projects at the
Museum of Modern Art and Rockefeller University.

NYC Constructors and MRP, LLC, sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y. Case Nos. 16-10069 and 16-10070) on Jan. 14, 2016, with
plans to their assets to Banker Steel for at least $7.2 million.
Judge Shelley C. Chapman presides over the cases.

The Debtors tapped Scott S. Markowitz, Esq., at Tarter Krinsky &
Drogin LLP, as attorneys; and Getzler Henrich & Associates LLC, as
advisor.  NYC Constructors estimated $1 million to $10 million in
assets and debt.  The petition was signed by Barry King, president.

                     Hsin Chi Su's Objection

Hsin Chi Su, an interested party, objected to the Debtors' Cash
Collateral Motion and contended that it is prejudicial to the
interests of Victory Drilling Company ("VTG"), a non-debtor and
parent company of the Debtors which has common officers and
directors with the Debtors, for the Debtors to seek final orders on
their cash collateral motion before an independent party is
appointed to control the operations of Vantage Drilling Company.
Hsin Chi Su contended that the final orders could affect the
significant and substantive rights of VTG.

The Debtors contended that Hsin Chi Su ("Nobu Su") is the sole
shareholder of F3 Capital, which in turn, is a shareholder and
purported creditor of the Debtors' non-debtor parent company
Vantage Parent.  The Debtors further contended that neither Nobu
Su, personally, nor F3 Capital has any claim against or interest in
any Debtor.  The Debtors added that Nobu Su has no standing to
participate in the cases or ask the Court to grant any relief for
his benefit, let alone object to the Debtors' motion to use cash
collateral.

PERFORMANCE FOOD: Moody's Hikes Corporate Family Rating to Ba3
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service today upgraded Performance Food Group,
Inc.'s (PFG) Corporate Family Rating to Ba3 from B1 and Probability
of Default to Ba3-PD from B1-PD. Moody's also upgraded the
company's senior secured bank facility to B2 from B3 and assigned a
Speculative Grade Liquidity rating of SGL-2. The rating outlook is
stable.

"T[he] rating action reflects PFG's improved operating performance
and material debt reduction that has driven stronger credit metrics
and liquidity" stated Bill Fahy, Moody's Senior Credit Officer. The
company used the net cash proceeds from its IPO to reduce funded
debt by over $220 million. "The upgrade also reflects Moody's
expectations that PFG continues to benefit from various growth and
costs saving initiatives such as expanding its vending business
segment and higher margin "street" business that caters to
independent restaurants and small local and regional chains while
maintaining a balanced financial policy" added Fahy.

The following ratings were upgraded:

Corporate Family Rating to Ba3 from B1

Probability of Default Rating to Ba3-PD from B1-PD

$750 million (approx. $500m outstanding) senior secured second lien
term loan to B2 (LGD 5) from B3 (LGD 5)

The following rating was assigned:

Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating at SGL-2

The outlook will remain stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba3 CFR reflects PFG's steady improvement in operating earnings
and more moderate leverage with Moody's adjusted debt/EBITDA -- pro
forma for the material debt reduction -- of about 4.0 times for the
twelve months period ending September 26, 2015. In addition,
Moody's believes credit metrics will gradually improve as operating
performance and cost saving initiatives drive higher earnings and
more moderate debt levels going forward. The ratings are also
supported by PFG's large scale within the food service industry
with its nationwide distribution capability, greater business
diversification provided by its vending business segment, and a
moderate financial policy. However, PFG's thin operating margins,
high exposure to the restaurant industry which could be negatively
impacted by negative macroeconomic issues, and acquisitive business
strategy are viewed as credit negatives. Also constraining the
ratings are the company's ownership structure where over 75% of the
company is owned by two financial sponsors and only 17% is publicly
traded.

The stable rating outlook reflects Moody's view that PFG's
operating performance and credit metrics continue to improve as the
company successfully executes its growth initiatives and focuses on
lowering costs throughout its system while maintaining a balanced
financial policy. The outlook also expects that PFG successfully
addresses the relatively near term maturity of its asset-based
revolver that matures in May 2017 and becomes current in May 2016.

Ratings could be upgraded in the event PFG generates sustained
growth in sales and profitability while maintaining good liquidity.
Quantitatively, an upgrade would require debt/EBITDA approaching
3.5 times and EBITA/Interest expense sustained above 3.0 times. An
upgrade would also require a moderate financial policy and more
diversified ownership structure.

Ratings could be downgraded if a sustained deterioration in
operating performance or a more aggressive financial policy
resulted in debt/EBITDA sustained above 4.25 times or
EBITA/Interest expense falling below 2.5 times.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Distribution &
Supply Chain Services Industry published in December 2015.

Performance Food Group, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of
Performance Food Group Company, headquartered in Richmond,
Virginia, is a food distributor with annual revenues of
approximately $15.5 billion. The company is majority owned by
affiliates of the Blackstone Group with Wellspring Capital

----------------------------------------------------------
Phillips Investments, LLC sought and obtained permission from Hon.

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.

PREMIER EXHIBITIONS: In Talks With Lenders on Note Draw Delay
-------------------------------------------------------------

Promissory Note and Guarantee with Mr. Yanzi Gao as agent for the
lenders listed therein, with an aggregate principal sum not to
exceed US$5,000,000.  The Note provides that the Company will make
draws of: (i) $1,000,000 on or before Dec. 10, 2015; (ii)
$1,000,000 within five business days after delivering written
notice to the Lenders requesting the second draw, on or before Dec.
18, 2015; and (iii) $1,000,000 within five business days after
delivering written notice to the Lenders requesting the third draw,
on or before Dec. 31, 2015, provided in each case there is no event
of default under the Note.  The Note provides the Company may
request an additional advance in the amount of $2,000,000 at any
time during the term of the Note, provided the Lenders will have
the option to grant or deny the request in their sole and absolute
discretion.  The proceeds of the Note will be used in the normal

On Jan. 4, 2016, the Company agreed to delay the second draw until

these amounts would not accrue until the amounts were received by
the Company.  The Note otherwise remained unchanged and in full
effect.

draw that was scheduled for Jan. 15, 2016, and has not received the
draw to date.  The Company has provided notice to the Lenders of
the failure to deliver this draw in accordance with the terms of
the Note, and is in discussions with the Lenders to determine when
and if the funds will be delivered to the Company.

QUIKSILVER INC: UST Says Exculpation Provision Non-Compliant
------------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData reported that the U.S. Trustee assigned to the
Quiksilver case filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court an objection
to Debtors' Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization.

The objection explains, "The Plan's exculpation provision does not
comply with the applicable case law, as it covers numerous entities
that are not estate fiduciaries in the cases.  The only parties
eligible for exculpation in the cases are the Debtors, the Debtors'
officers and directors serving during the Chapter 11 cases in their
capacity as such, the Committee, and their respective attorneys,
financial advisors and other professionals...All other entities,
including without limitation the Backstop Parties, the Plan
Sponsor, the DIP Lenders, the DIP Agents, the Secured Notes Agent,
well as each such entity's entourage of officers, directors,
affiliates, etc., well as their respective professionals, are not
estate fiduciaries and must not be exculpated.

Those parties should instead be stricken from the Plan's definition
of Exculpated Parties.  The U.S. Trustee has been advised that
certain Non-Fiduciaries insist on being included in the list of
Exculpated parties in order to preserve the exculpation offered by
Bankruptcy Code Section 1125(e).  However, the definition of
Exculpated Claim in Plan Article IB, Section 1.82 is far broader
than the relatively narrow safe harbor offered by Section
1125(e)."

REICHHOLD HOLDINGS: Wants $10K Sale of Ferndale Property Approved
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Reichhold Holdings US, Inc., and its affiliated debtors ask the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to approve the
sale of non-residential real property located at 3101 Bermuda,
Ferndale, Michigan ("Property") to Five Star Store It Ferndale LLC
for $10,000, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances.

The Debtors contend that sound business reasons exist for the sale.
The Debtors further contended that they have determined that,
after analyzing the viable options for their business, a plan to
exit bankruptcy as a stand-alone going concern business was not a
likely option and accordingly, the Debtors sold all their operating
assets to Reichhold, LLC.  The Debtors tell the Court that
following that sale, the Debtors further explored how best to
proceed with selling the Property and their other remaining assets,
and retained Hilco Real Estate, LLC ("HRE") as their real estate
consultant to market their surplus properties for sale.  The
Debtors further tell the Court that the Property is not used in the
operation of the Debtors' business. The Debtors believe that
selling the Property to Five Star through a private sale is
justified and appropriate.

The Debtors' Motion is scheduled for hearing on Feb. 4, 2016, at
11:30 a.m.  The deadline for the filing of objections to the Motion
is set on Jan. 28, 2016 at 4:00 p.m.

manufacturing operations throughout North America, Latin America,
the Middle East, Europe and Asia.

As of June 30, 2014, the Reichhold companies had consolidated
assets of $538 million and liabilities of $631 million.

Reichhold Holdings US, Inc., Reichhold, Inc., and two U.S.
affiliates sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. D. Del. Lead Case
No. 14-12237) on Sept. 30, 2014.

Cole, Schotz, Meisel, Forman & Leonard, P.A. (legal advisor) and
CDG Group LLC (financial advisor) are representing Reichhold, Inc.
Latham & Watkins LLP (legal advisor) and Moelis & Company
(investment banker) are serving Reichhold Industries, Inc.

Logan & Company is the company's claims and noticing agent.

The cases are assigned to Judge Mary F. Walrath.

The U.S. Trustee for Region 3 appointed seven creditors of
Reichhold Holdings US, Inc., to serve on the official committee of
unsecured creditors.

On April 2, 2015, Reichhold disclosed that the purchase of most of
the assets of the U.S. business was completed.  This transaction,
approved by the Delaware Bankruptcy Court on January 12, 2015,
allows Reichhold's U.S. businesses to successfully emerge from
bankruptcy and re-join the rest of the global Reichhold
organization.  Concurrent with this purchase, Reichhold completed
a
debt-for-equity exchange with a group of investors led by Black
Diamond Capital Management LLC and including J.P. Morgan Investment
Management, Inc., Third Avenue Management LLC, and Simplon Partners
LP.

On April 1, 2015, the U.S. Trustee named three non-union retirees
of Debtors to serve as the official Non-Union Retiree Committee.
Each of the Retiree Committee members is receiving retiree welfare
benefits from one or more of the Debtors.  The Retiree Committee
tapped the law firm of Stahl Cowen Crowley Addis LLC as its
counsel.


RELATIVITY FASHION: Wants Claims Allowed for Voting Purposes
------------------------------------------------------------
Relativity Fashion, LLC, and its affiliated debtors ask the
Bankruptcy Court to allow certain disputed claims solely for the
purpose of voting to accept or reject the Amended Plan of
Reorganization.

The Solicitation Procedures Order provides, among others, that "if
a Claim for which a proof of Claim has been timely filed is
asserted as wholly contingent, unliquidated or disputed and/or does
not otherwise specify a fixed or liquidated amount, such Claim will
be temporarily allowed for voting purposes in the amount of $1.00."
The Solicitation Procedures Order also provides that the Debtors
may seek the estimation and/or challenge the classification of any
claim for voting purposes pursuant to Rule 3018 of the Bankruptcy
Rules, which expressly permits estimation of claims for plan voting
purposes, and provides that "notwithstanding an objection to a
claim or interest, the court after notice and hearing may
temporarily allow a claim or interest in an amount which the court
deems proper for the purpose of accepting or rejecting a plan."

According to the Debtors, the temporary allowance of claims for
voting purposes is without prejudice to the rights of the Debtors
and other parties in interest in any other context, including the
right to contest the amount, validity or classification of any
claim for purposes of allowance and/or distribution under the
Plan.

Estimation of a claim for plan voting purposes is not a binding
legal determination as to the ultimate validity of the amount of a
claim, nor a binding determination of a cause of action before a
non-bankruptcy court, the Debtors assert.  The Debtors say that
their goal in reviewing proofs of claim in connection with
soliciting the Plan is to ensure that the holders of claims
entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan are afforded a fair
opportunity to do so.

Absent the relief requested in the Motion, all creditors will
potentially be adversely affected by these claimants voting in a
disproportionate amount, the Debtors tell the Court.

The Debtors relate that they anticipate emerging from Chapter 11 as
expeditiously as possible following confirmation by the Court of
the Plan in a hearing scheduled for February 1, 2016.

                        Bankruptcy Warning

"We will likely require substantial additional funding and expect
to augment our cash balance through financing transactions,
including the issuance of debt or equity securities and further
strategic collaborations.  On December 7, 2012, we filed a shelf
registration statement on Form F-3 with the SEC for the issuance of
ordinary shares, various series of debt securities and/or warrants
to purchase any of such securities, either individually or in
units, with a total value of up to $75 million, from time to time
at prices and on terms to be determined at the time of such
offerings.  The filing was declared effective on December 19, 2012.
As of the time of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 20-F,
we had sold through the Cantor Sales Agreement an aggregate of
4,736,854 of our ordinary shares for gross proceeds of $19.9
million under this shelf registration statement, leaving an
aggregate of approximately $55.1 million of securities available
for sale under this Form F-3, subject to limitations imposed by the
SEC for companies with a public float of less than $75 million.  If
we need additional funding, there can be no assurance that we will
be able to obtain adequate levels of additional funding on
favorable terms, if at all.  If adequate funds are needed and not
available, we may be required to:

   * delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate certain research and
     development programs;

   * obtain funds through arrangements with collaborators or
     others on terms unfavorable to us or that may require us to
     relinquish rights to certain technologies or products that we
     might otherwise seek to develop or commercialize
     independently;

   * monetize certain of our assets;

   * pursue merger or acquisition strategies; or

   * seek protection under the bankruptcy laws of Israel and the
     United States," the Company said in its annual report for the
     year ended Dec. 31, 2014.

                  About Spanish Broadcasting

Headquartered in Coconut Grove, Florida, Spanish Broadcasting
operates 21 radio stations targeting the Hispanic audience.  The
Company also owns and operates Mega TV, a television operation
with over-the-air, cable and satellite distribution and affiliates
throughout the U.S. and Puerto Rico.  Its revenue for the twelve
months ended Sept. 30, 2010, was approximately $140 million.

Spanish Broadcasting reported a net loss of $20.0 million on $146
million of net revenue for the year ended Dec. 31, 2014, compared
with a net loss of $88.6 million on $154 million of net revenue in
2013.

                           *     *     *

In November 2010, Moody's Investors Service upgraded the corporate
family and probability of default ratings for Spanish Broadcasting
System, Inc., to 'Caa1' from 'Caa3' based on improved free cash
flow prospects due to better than anticipated cost cutting and the
expiration of an unprofitable interest rate swap agreement.
Moody's said Spanish Broadcasting's 'Caa1' corporate family rating
incorporates its weak capital structure, operational pressure in
the still cyclically weak economic climate, generally narrow
growth prospects (though Spanish language is the strongest growth
prospect) given the maturity and competitive pressures in the
radio industry, and the June 2012 maturity of its term loan
magnify this challenge.

In July 2010, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its
corporate credit rating on Miami, Fla.-based Spanish Broadcasting
System Inc. to 'B-' from 'CCC+', based on continued improvement in
the company's liquidity position.  The rating outlook is stable.
"The rating action reflects S&P's expectation that, despite very
high leverage, SBS will have adequate liquidity over the
intermediate term to meet debt maturities, potential swap
settlements, and operating needs until its term loan matures on
June 11, 2012," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Michael
Altberg.

STELLAR BIOTECHNOLOGIES: To Form Joint Venture With Neovacs
-----------------------------------------------------------
Stellar Biotechnologies, Inc., and Neovacs S.A. announced they have
entered into a term sheet to form a joint venture for the
manufacture of conjugated therapeutic vaccines using Stellar's
proprietary Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH).  The purpose of the
proposed Joint Venture is to produce Neovacs' Kinoid product
candidates, including IFNa-Kinoid, as well as potentially
manufacture other KLH-based immunotherapies on behalf of third
party customers.

The parties intend to negotiate the terms of one or more definitive
agreements related to the organization, ownership allocation, and
supply and services for the Joint Venture.  The parties anticipate
that the Joint Venture will be owned initially 70% by Neovacs, with
Stellar holding the remaining 30% interest. There can be no
assurance that the Joint Venture will be consummated or, if
consummated, will achieve the expected results.

Stellar is a leader in the sustainable manufacture of KLH, a
carrier protein used for its immune-stimulating properties in the
production of active immunotherapies (also known as conjugated
therapeutic vaccines).  KLH is a key component of Neovacs' Kinoid
technology.

Neovacs is a leader in the development of active immunotherapies
for autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Neovacs' patented Kinoid
technology combines a targeted cytokine attached to Stellar KLH as
the immune-stimulating carrier molecule.  Neovacs' lead product
candidate IFNa-Kinoid for the treatment of systemic lupus
erythematosus (lupus) is in Phase IIb clinical trials in Europe,
Latin America and Asia.  A Phase IIa trial in the United States is
expected to begin in 2016.  There can be no assurance that the
clinical trials will ultimately lead to commercialization of the
products.

"We look forward to working with Stellar Biotechnologies to form
this cooperative venture, as they are the leading supplier of KLH
protein based on sustainable, scalable aquaculture techniques,"
said Miguel Sieler, chief executive officer of Neovacs.  "Since KLH
is a key component of IFNa-Kinoid, this venture is intended to
support Neovacs as we work toward potential market launch, as well
as bring added value in the field of KLH-Kinoid conjugate
vaccines."

Frank Oakes, president, chief executive officer, and chairman of
Stellar added, "We believe the proposed joint venture could be a
very positive development for both Stellar and Neovacs.  It would
enable us to work together to ensure the successful development of
IFNa-Kinoid at scale but, importantly, we anticipate building
manufacturing infrastructure and expertise that could be offered to
other developers of conjugate vaccines looking to transition their
product candidates from clinical to commercial scale. For Stellar,
this is an example of leveraging our KLH core business to expand
our potential clinical and commercial opportunities."

additional 180 calendar day period in which to demonstrate
compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule.  If the Company does
not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Rule prior to July
18, 2016, and is not eligible for the additional compliance period,
then Nasdaq will notify the Company that the Common Stock will be
subject to delisting.  At such time, the Company may appeal

TREEHOUSE FOODS: Moody's Confirms Ba2 Corporate Family Rating
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has confirmed the Ba2 Corporate Family
Rating and Ba2-PD Probability of Default Rating of TreeHouse Foods,
Inc. and downgraded the company's senior unsecured debt rating to
Ba3 from Ba2. Moody's also affirmed the SGL-2 Speculative Grade
Liquidity rating and revised the rating outlook to negative. These
actions conclude the review for downgrade that began on November 2,
2015 after TreeHouse announced that it had agreed to purchase the
private brands business of ConAgra Foods ("ConAgra", Baa2
developing) for $2.7 billion.

Moody's also assigned a Ba3 rating to $775 million of senior
unsecured notes being offered by TreeHouse, the proceeds from which
will be used to partially fund the pending private brands
acquisition. The remaining amount of the $2.7 billion purchase
price will be funded through a $750 million common equity issuance
completed yesterday, a new $1.025 billion senior secured term loan
(not rated) and approximately $250 million of incremental
borrowings under its $900 million senior secured revolving credit
facility (not rated). The size of the equity issuance was reduced
from the $1 billion amount originally contemplated due to market
conditions; the $250 million difference was shifted to secured bank
financing.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba2 Corporate Family Rating reflects significant benefits
resulting from the proposed $2.7 billion of ConAgra's private
brands business, partly offset by high execution and financial
risks. Benefits include a significant increase in scale, improved
segmental diversification, and attractive prospects for value
creation based on a purchase price that represents a significant
discount to previous net asset value. In addition, with this
acquisition TreeHouse will become by far the nation's largest
private label foods manufacturer, giving it significant clout with
its customers. These transaction benefits are partially offset by
increased financial leverage that will result and Moody's
anticipation that the integration process will be difficult given
the large size of the target business and its recent history of
operational challenges.

"The negative outlook reflects our expectation that TreeHouse will
successfully integrate ConAgra's private brands over time, but that
it could face difficulties in the near-term that could hinder its
ability to reduce leverage fast enough to hold the rating,"
commented Moody's analyst Brian Weddington.

Closing leverage as measured by debt/EBITDA will be high for the
current ratings, approaching 5x, by Moody's estimate. However,
TreeHouse plans to stabilize the acquired business and increase
combined annual free cash flow, primarily through cost reductions,
to nearly $300 million within two years from about $230 million
today on a pro forma basis. If successful, leverage would fall
comfortably below 4.0x by the end of 2017.

The senior unsecured ratings were lowered one notch below the Ba2
CFR, reflecting the subordination of $1.2 billion of senior
unsecured debt to $2.3 billion of secured debt instruments.

Moody's has taken the following rating actions on TreeHouse Foods,
Inc.:

Ratings confirmed:

Corporate Family Rating at Ba2;

Probability of Default at Ba2-PD.

Ratings downgraded:

Senior unsecured shelf to (P)Ba3 from (P)Ba2;

$400 million guaranteed senior unsecured notes due 2022 to Ba3
(LGD5) from Ba2 (LGD4).

Rating Assigned:

Proposed $775 million guaranteed senior unsecured notes due 2024 at
Ba3 (LGD5).

Rating affirmed:

Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating at SGL-2

Outlook, changed to Negative from Rating Under Review

A rating downgrade could occur if TreeHouse is unable to
successfully integrate and stabilize the to-be-acquired private
brands business. Additionally, a downgrade could occur if operating
performance deteriorates in the legacy portfolio, or financial
policy becomes more aggressive. Quantitatively, if debt/EBITDA is
not likely to be reduced to below 4.0 times EBITDA within 24
months, retained cash flow to net debt falls below 16%, or the
company's earnings cushion against bank covenants falls below 10%,
a downgrade could occur. An upgrade is unlikely in the near-term.
However, over time through the successful execution of its growth
strategy, stable operating performance and the continued balanced
use of debt and equity to finance acquisitions, an upgrade could
occur if the company is able to sustain debt/EBITDA below 3.0
times.

TreeHouse Foods, Inc. is a leading private label food manufacturer
servicing primarily the retail grocery and foodservice distribution
channels. It sells products within a wide array of food categories
including: beverages; salad dressings; snacks; beverage enhancers;
pickles; Mexican and other sauces; soup and infant feeding;
cereals; dry dinners; aseptic products; jams; and other products.
Sales for the twelve month period ended September 30, 2015 were
approximately $3.2 billion. After the acquisition of ConAgra's
private brands, TreeHouse will generate annual sales of just over
$7 billion.



TRIBUNE CO: Hedge Fund Urges Justices to Let It Fight $7BB Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
Kurt Orzeck at Bankruptcy Law360 reported that a hedge fund is
urging the U.S. Supreme Court to let it fight Tribune Media Co.'s
$7 billion reorganization plan, arguing in a filing made public on
Jan. 15, 2016, that the justices need to review a doctrine used to
block bankruptcy plan challenges once reorganization is underway.

In a petition for writ of certiorari dated Jan. 11, Aurelius
Capital Management LP says that it and other noteholders have
strong claims for avoiding some $2.3 billion of senior debt
incurred in billionaire Sam Zell's buyout of Tribune.

                         About Tribune Co.

Chicago, Illinois-based Tribune Co. -- http://www.tribune.com/--
and 110 of its affiliates filed for Chapter 11 protection (Bankr.
D. Del. Lead Case No. 08-13141) on Dec. 8, 2008.  The Debtors
proposed Sidley Austin LLP as their counsel; Cole, Schotz, Meisel,
Forman & Leonard, PA, as Delaware counsel; Lazard Ltd. and Alvarez
& Marsal North America LLC as financial advisors; and Epiq
Bankruptcy Solutions LLC as claims agent.  As of Dec. 8, 2008, the
Debtors listed $7,604,195,000 in total assets and $12,972,541,148
in total debts.  Chadbourne & Parke LLP and Landis Rath LLP served
as co-counsel to the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors.
AlixPartners LLP served as the Committee's financial advisor.
Landis Rath Moelis & Company served as the Committee's investment
banker.  Thomas G. Macauley, Esq., at Zuckerman Spaeder LLP, in
Wilmington, Delaware, represented the Committee in connection with
the lawsuit filed against former officers and shareholders for the
2007 LBO of Tribune.

Protracted negotiations and mediation efforts and numerous
proposed plans of reorganization filed by Tribune Co. and
competing creditor groups delayed Tribune's emergence from
bankruptcy.  Many of the disputes among creditors center on the
2007 leveraged buyout fraudulence conveyance claims, the
resolution of which is a key issue in the bankruptcy case.

Judge Kevin J. Carey issued an order dated July 13, 2012,
overruling objections to the confirmation of Tribune Co. and its
debtor affiliates' Plan of Reorganization.  In November 2012,
Tribune received approval from the Federal Communications
Commission to transfer media licenses, one of the hurdles to
implementing the reorganization plan.  Aurelius Capital Management
LP failed in halting implementation of the plan pending appeal.

Tribune Co. exited Chapter 11 protection Dec. 31, 2012, ending
four years of reorganization.  The reorganization allowed a group
of banks and hedge funds, including Oaktree Capital Management and
JPMorgan Chase & Co., to take over the media company.



TRUMP ENTERTAINMENT: Obtains Favorable Ruling in CBA Dispute
------------------------------------------------------------
Squire Patton Boggs disclosed that on January 15, 2016, Trump
Entertainment was handed a victory by the Third Circuit Court of
Appeals, which held that Trump Entertainment could reject the
continuing terms and conditions of a collective bargaining
agreement (CBA) that had already expired by its terms.  This case
is a matter of first impression among the courts of appeal and is
likely to significantly alter the balance of power between
debtor-employers and their unions.  The end result of the Trump
Entertainment decision may be that more companies with burdensome
CBAs choose to file bankruptcy in order to reduce their labor
costs.

As reported by the TCR on Nov. 20, 2014, Standard & Poor's Rating
Services raised its corporate credit rating on Westmoreland Coal
Co. one-notch to 'B' from 'B-'.  "The stable outlook is supported
by Westmoreland's committed sales position over the next year,
which should result in stable cash flows," said Standard & Poor's
credit analyst Chiza Vitta.

Moody's upgraded the corporate family rating (CFR) of Westmoreland
Coal Company to 'B3' from 'Caa1', and assigned 'Caa1' rating to the
company's proposed new $300 million First Lien Term Loan, the TCR
reported on Nov. 20, 2014.  The upgrade of the CFR reflects the
company's successful integration of the Canadian mines acquired in
April 2014, and Moody's expectation that the company's Debt/ EBITDA
will track at around 5x in 2015 and 2016 and that the company will
be break-even to modestly free cash flow positive over the same
time period.

                            *********

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

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

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

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

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

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