1201 ERNSTON ROAD: Plan Exclusivity Deadline Extended Until Aug. 8
------------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Kathryn C. Ferguson of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of New Jersey extended the time periods in which only 1201
Ernston Road Realty Corp. may file a plan of reorganization until
August 8, 2017, and solicit acceptances of such plan until October
6, 2017.  

The Troubled Company Reporter had previously reported that the
Debtor needs additional time to complete its due diligence efforts,
including marketing the Property for sale, finalizing negotiations,
and subsequently submitting a viable, good faith plan.

The Debtor averred that it was in the process of finalizing
interviews of three commercial brokers to select the best and most
experienced realtor to aggressively market for sale the Debtor's
commercial real property located at 1201 Ernston Road, South Amboy,
New Jersey, while maximizing a return for the estate.  

On April 21, 2017, the Debtor filed an application to employ Ray
Brooks Realty, Inc. as the Debtor's realtor.

              About 1201 Ernston Road Realty Corp.

1201 Ernston Road Realty Corp., filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy
petition (Bankr. D.N.J. Case No. 17-10549) on Jan. 10, 2017,
disclosing both assets and liabilities to be between $500,000 to $1
million. The Petition was signed by Ana Orisini, President.

The Debtor is represented by Anthony Sodono III, Esq. at Trenk
DiPasquale Della Fera & Sodono, P.C. The Debtor employs RJAC and
Associates, LLC, as accountant; and Ray Brooks Realty, Inc., as
realtor.

Court for the Northern District of Georgia to hire Wiggins Law
Group, LLC.

The firm will represent the Debtor in all litigation concerning the
operation of its adult entertainment business.  Wiggins will be

its bankruptcy estate.

The petition was signed by Harry J. Freese, president.

A&D PROPANE: U.S. Trustee Unable to Appoint Committee
-----------------------------------------------------
The Office of the U.S. Trustee on May 10 disclosed in a court
filing that no official committee of unsecured creditors has been
appointed in the Chapter 11 case of A&D Propane, Inc.

                       About A&D Propane Inc.

Based in Huntsville, Texas, A&D Propane, Inc. filed a Chapter 11
petition (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Case No. 17-31502) on March 7, 2017.
In its petition, the Debtor estimated $883,060 in assets and $1.56
million in liabilities.  The petition was signed by Robert Dobyns,
president.

at Cooper & Scully, PC, serves as bankruptcy counsel.  The Debtor
hired Bryan Brassell of Padgett Business Services to prepare its
tax returns.


ABRAHAM BEROOKHIM: Wongs Buying Santa Monica Property for $4.7M
---------------------------------------------------------------
Abraham Berookhim asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central
District of California to authorize the sale of a single-family
residence in Santa Monica, California, to Rosanna and Charles Wong
for $4,700,000.

Objections, if any, must be filed 14 days before the date set for
the hearing.

In 1987, the Debtor built a single-family residence located at 609
10th Street, Santa Monica, California, APN No. 4280-024-032, and
resided there for some years.  In 2003, he got an equity line,
which he used to renovate the house completely with the intention
of renting it.  The Property was rented to a tenant for five years
through August 2016 and he then started renting it on Airbnb.
After a 20-day Airbnb rental of the entire house for over $27,000
ended and after the Sept. 4, 2016 date of filing for Chapter 11
relief, the Debtor and his wife moved into the house and continue
to rent it through Airbnb either per room or in its entirety.  He
entered into a listing agreement with the real estate agency,
Hilton & Hyland, to rent it for $21,000 per month fully furnished
or sell it for $4,995,000 and, after much negotiations received the
current offer for $4,700,000 for his Property appraised at
$4,500,000 according to the appraisal.

Under a Jan. 24, 2017 Representation Agreement, with Hilton &
Highland, the Debtor engaged that brokerage to market and sell the
Property.  Hilton & Highland have extensive experience in selling
similar properties and their employment application by the Debtor
has been filed with the court and engaged in exhaustive marketing
efforts.

There are two liens against the property, for approximately
$2,880,000.  

Prior to the Petition Date, Carol Coote ("Plaintiff") filed that
case entitled "Carol Coote v. Jeremy Stanton, et al.," Case No. SC
124598, the Hon. Judge Nancy Newman, presiding ("Superior Court
Case").  By order entered on Nov. 30, 2016, Plaintiff received
relief from stay to continue to prosecute such superior court case
not only against Jeremy Stanton, but also against the Debtor.

On Feb. 15, 2017, the Plaintiff filed proof of claim No.9 in the
case in the amount of $400,000 based on the Superior Court Case
("Claim").  On April 11, 2017, the Debtor filed a motion to
establish procedures for the sale of the Property and a motion for
sale of such Property.  The Debtor concurrently filed applications
for an order shortening time to hear each of such two motions.  The
Court denied the applications and instead set only a hearing on the
Debtor's motion for sale procedures on May 16, 2017 at 2:00 p.m.  

On April 25, 2017, the Court held a status conference and a hearing
on approval of the Debtor's Disclosure Statement Describing the
Debtor's Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization.  At the status
conference, the Court indicated that it would convert the Debtor's
case to one under Chapter 7 unless the Debtor and the Plaintiff
reached resolution of the Claim and, necessarily, the Superior
Court Case by no later than May 9, 2017, and informed the Court of
such settlement and the Court would refrain from entering an order
converting the Bankruptcy Case to one under Chapter 7 of the
Bankruptcy Code.

As the Plaintiff and the Debtor, through counsel, informed the
Court on May 9, 2017, they have reached resolution of the Claim,
which was memorialized in a settlement agreement executed on May 11
and 12, 2017 ("Settlement Agreement") and the Motion is made to
comply with such Settlement Agreement.  The Motion asks approval to
consummate the same sale the Debtor sought to consummate pursuant
to that previous motion filed on April 11, 2017.

The sale is proposed to be free and clear of liens, claims and
interests.  The estate would receive the purchase price of
$4,700,000, less a 4.5% commission of $211,500 to the brokers.  The
brokers to receive commission are Alphonso Lascano and Bjorn
Farrugia, Hilton & Highland, 250 North Canon Drive, Beverly Hills,
California.

A copy of the Purchase Agreement and Settlement Agreement attached
to the Motion is available for free at:

      http://bankrupt.com/misc/Abraham_Berookhim_121_Sales.pdf

It should also be noted that the current Proposed Buyers are
demanding a damage fee of $750 per day for delay in closing
starting from initial closing date of 4/27, plus $500 rent per day
from closing until seller move out.  In addition, the Proposed
Buyers require that the sale and move-out occur no later than June
1, 2017 or it is going to withdraw from the transaction and demand
a full refund of their deposit.  While the Debtor hopes to
negotiate for waiver of the foregoing, the sale should be approved
despite such request.

Since the purchase offer exceeds the Property's formally appraised
value, no approval of overbid procedures is sought and dispensing
with such procedures is supported by the Debtor's only previously
objecting unsecured creditor, Carol Coote.

The sale is in the best interest of the estate because the Property
is expensive to manage and to service the consensual liens secured
by it and is not likely to be sold for a higher price and sale
would reduce the debt that would require administration within the
estate.  The evidence is that the value of the Property is the same
as the purchase price, i.e. $4,500,000 plus $200,000 for buyer to
purchase all chandeliers, fixtures, curtains and Hasam painting,
given that it has been listed for higher amounts and failed to get
offers.  Whether or not the value of the Property is declining, the
Property is not likely to be sold for a higher price since
$4,500,000 is its value as of March 3, 2017 according to the full
Appraisal by a duly licensed professional and it makes sense to
allow the Debtors to dispose of the Property in order to help fund
reorganization.  

The Debtor put the Property up for sale on the open market after
consulting with his brokers, who are familiar with the local and
the broader Southern California real estate market, as well as the
type of property for sale, a single family residence. The price
offered for the Property represents the most favorable option for
the Property and argues in favor of the relief sought.  In light of
the fact that the offer is the best current offer that the Debtor
has received for the Property, the Debtor asserts that the sale as
proposed is in the best interest of creditors.  Accordingly, the
Debtor asks the Court to approve the relief sought.

The Debtor asks the Court to waive the stay of 14 days of an order
as provided in Rule 6004(h) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy
Procedure.

Abraham Berookhim sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. C.D. Cal.
Case No. 16-21836) on Sept. 4, 2016.  The Debtor tapped Steven A
Schwaber, Esq., as counsel.


ADAMS RESOURCES: Seeks to Hire Gavin/Solmonese as CRO
-----------------------------------------------------
Adams Resources Exploration Corp. seeks approval from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to hire a chief
restructuring officer.

The Debtor proposes to hire Gavin/Solmonese, LLC to provide these

         case, including oversight of all financial activities of
         the Debtor.

         situational analysis or business plan for submission to
         potential lenders and investors.

     (c) Negotiation of and amendments to contracts.

     (d) The compromise of accounts payable and receivable and of
         notes payable and receivable.

     (e) Direct communication with creditors, vendors, customers
         and employees with respect to the Debtor's affairs and
         progress of the bankruptcy case.

     (e) Planning and overall management of any required wind-down

         efforts, including liquidation of residual assets.

     (f) Providing assistant CRO staff, as necessary, to provide

$350 for senior consultants and directors, and $125 to $250 for

Gavin/Solmonese will receive a retainer fee in the amount of
$25,000.  

Moreover, the firm is entitled to a "success fee" if requested to

The success fee for financing is 5% of the face amount of the
funding.  For the sale of the business, the success fee is 5% of

received.  Meanwhile, the success fee for the recruitment of
officers or managers is 25% of the total annual compensation of
such individual.

AFFINION GROUP: Moody's Rates New $1.45BB 1st Lien Loans 'B2'
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B2 rating to Affinion Group,
Inc.'s new $1.45 billion first lien credit facility, consisting of
a $1.34 billion first lien term loan due 2022 and a $110 million
revolving credit facility expiring 2022. The credit facility is
being offered in conjunction with the company's plans to repay all
amounts outstanding under the existing first and second lien credit
facilities due 2018 and 7.5% Cash/PIK senior unsecured
international notes due 2018 (unrated by Moody's). Moody's also
assigned a Caa3 rating to the new $532.6 million senior unsecured
PIK toggle notes due 2022 that are being issued as part of the
company's debt exchange offer for the remaining 2018 notes.
Concurrently, Moody's assigned a Caa1 Corporate Family Rating (CFR)
and Caa1-PD Probability of Default Rating to Affinion Group, Inc.,
which will be the borrower under the new credit facility and
unsecured notes. Moody's also assigned a Speculative Grade
Liquidity Rating of SGL-3. The rating outlook is stable.

"While the refinancing transactions address Moody's immediate
concerns about the company's liquidity stemming from the maturity
of all its existing debt in 2018, they further increase Affinion's
leverage and total interest burden at a time when the company is
facing operating challenges in sustaining revenue and earnings
growth," said Moody's analyst Oleg Markin. "The refinancing will
provide Affinion with additional time to execute its plans to
stabilize and grow the business but the new financing creates a
significant interest burden that does not alleviate concerns about
the sustainability of the company's capital structure and a
potential need to right size the balance sheet in the medium term,"
added Markin.

Following the debt recapitalization, Moody's expects Affinion's
total debt-to-EBITDA (Moody's adjusted) leverage to remain very
high, at around 8.8 times. Overall deleveraging is expected to be
tempered given Moody's expectation that total debt will increase
over time as a result of the company's intention to pay the
interest in kind under the new notes and assuming only modest
EBITDA growth over the next 24 months. Moody's believes that
Affinion's leverage will remain above 8.5 times by 2018.

Moody's assigned the following ratings:

Issuer: Affinion Group, Inc.

Corporate Family Rating at Caa1

Probability of Default Rating at Caa1-PD

New $110 million first lien senior secured revolving credit
facility due 2022 at B2 (LGD3)

New $1,340 million first lien senior secured term loan due 2022 at
B2 (LGD3)

New $532.6 million senior cash 12.5%/PIK step-up 15.5% Notes due
2022 at Caa3 (LGD5)

Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating at SGL-3

Rating Outlook remains Stable

Moody's has withdrawn the following ratings:

Issuer: Affinion Group Holdings, Inc.:

Corporate Family Rating, previously Caa1

Probability of Default Rating, previously Caa1-PD

Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating previously, SGL- 3

$16.11 million 13.75%/14.5% Senior Secured PIK Toggle Notes due
2018, previously at Caa3 (LGD6)

Issuer: Affinion Group, Inc.

$80 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility due 2018,
previously at B1 (LGD2)

$775 million Senior Secured First Lien Term Loan due 2018,
previously at B1 (LGD2)

$425 million Senior Secured Second Lien Term Loan due 2018,
previously at Caa1 (LGD4)

$475 million 7.875% Senior Unsecured Global Notes due 2018,
previously at Caa3 (LGD5)

Issuer: Affinion Investments, LLC

$359 million 13.5% Senior Subordinated Global Notes due 2018,
previously at Caa3 (LGD6)

Issuers: Affinion Group Holdings, Inc/Affinion Investments, LLC

Outlooks Withdrawn

Moody's has withdrawn the existing instrument ratings that were
subject to the debt refinancing transactions. A small portion of
the existing 2018 notes (approximately $21.7 million) issued by
Affinion Holdings, Inc. and Affinion Investments, LLC were not
tendered in the exchange offer and will remain outstanding. Moody's
is withdrawing the ratings on these notes as the company plans to
redeem them through an increase of the new 2022 notes.

As part of this rating action Affinion Group Holdings, Inc.'s Caa1
Corporate Family, Caa1-PD Probability of Default, and SGL-3
Speculative Grade Liquidity ratings have been withdrawn. Moody's is
moving the CFR, PDR and SGL ratings to Affinion Group, Inc. because
all of the existing debt at Affinion Group Holdings, Inc. will be
repaid in conjunction with the refinancing and planned redemption
of the remaining stub 2018 notes.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Affinion's Caa1 CFR reflects ongoing challenges to sustain revenue
and earnings growth, exceptionally high level of debt and leverage
post recapitalization, with debt-to-EBITDA (Moody's adjusted)
expected to remain near 9.0 times through 2018, and Moody's concern
that new capital structure is unsustainable in the medium term. The
recapitalization enhances Affinion's liquidity by pushing out
maturities to 2022 and providing the company the ability to pay the
interest on the proposed notes in kind. Moody's believes that the
elevated risk of a debt restructuring will increase further if the
company is unable to capitalize on the additional flexibility to
meaningfully grow earnings and reduce leverage in the next few
years. Moody's expects Affinion will generate modestly positive
free cash flow but in an amount less than the PIK interest that
will lead to increasing debt levels. The high leverage and expected
increase in debt weakly position the company within the Caa1 rating
category. The rating also factors in the highly competitive
industry in which Affinion operates, exposure to cyclical client
and consumer spending, and the high degree of regulatory oversight
around marketing of its products and services.

The rating also reflects favorable considerations including the
company's good global market presence, supported by its large
membership base, its direct marketing expertise and strong margins
in its global loyalty and insurance solutions businesses. The
rating is also supported by Moody's expectation that Affinion will
maintain adequate liquidity over the next 12-15 months.

Affinion's SGL-3 Speculative Grade Liquidity rating reflects the
company's adequate liquidity. The debt refinancing favorably
extends the company's maturity profile but also increases gross
interest expense. A PIK election on the proposed PIK/Toggle notes
due 2022 will conserve roughly $80-$85 million of cash per year,
allowing the company to meet its basic cash obligations. The
company is expected to generate annual positive cash flow of around
$20-30 million and maintain $55-65 million of availability under
its new $110 million revolver (partially drawn at closing) over the
next 12 months. A reduction in the revolver commitment to $80
million on the one year anniversary of the closing date will weaken
liquidity. Moody's expects Affinion will maintain adequate headroom
under the proposed credit agreement financial maintenance covenants
over the next 12-15 months. The covenants apply to both the
revolver and term loan.

The stable outlook reflects the company's adequate liquidity and
Moody's expectation that projected growth with new and existing
clients will offset revenue attrition in the legacy business, and
that earnings will modestly improve over the next 12-18 months.

The ratings could be downgraded if Affinion is unable to stabilize
and grow its revenue, earnings and free cash flow. Ratings could
also be downgraded if liquidity were to erode for any reason, or if
Moody's believes there is a growing likelihood of a distressed
exchange or other default or if potential recovery values weaken.

The ratings could be upgraded if Affinion demonstrates good organic
revenue and earnings growth, while maintaining solid EBITDA margins
and at least adequate liquidity. Quantitatively, the ratings could
be upgraded if debt-to-EBITDA (Moody's adjusted) trends towards 6.0
times and EBITDA-Capex/gross interest expense is sustained above
1.5 times.

Affinion is a leading provider of loyalty and customer engagement
solutions. Affinion's products include subscription-based lifestyle
services, personal and insurance solutions that strengthen and
extend customer relationships for its 5,500 marketing partners
worldwide, including companies in financial services, retail,
travel, and Internet commerce. The company generated approximately
$969 million of net revenues for the twelve months ended December
31, 2016.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Service Industry published in October 2016.


AFFINION GROUP: S&P Lowers CCR to 'SD' Following Debt Exchange
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it lowered its corporate credit rating
on Affinion Group Holdings Inc. to 'SD' (selective default) from
'CC'.

At the same time, S&P lowered its issue-level ratings on the
company's 7.875% senior unsecured notes due 2018, 13.5% senior
subordinated notes due 2018, and 13.75%/14.5% senior unsecured
payment-in-kind (PIK) toggle notes due 2018 to 'D' from 'C'.  The
recovery rating on the notes remains '6', indicating S&P's
expectation for negligible (0%-10%: rounded estimate: 0%) recovery
of principal in the event of a default.

S&P's issue-level and recovery ratings on the company's first-lien
revolving credit facility and term loan, second-lien term loan, and
senior secured international notes are unchanged.

"The downgrade follows Affinion's recent announcement that it has
exchanged its 7.875% senior unsecured notes due 2018, 13.5% senior
subordinated notes due 2018, and 13.75%/14.5% senior unsecured PIK
toggle notes due 2018 for a new $532.6 million senior cash
12.5%/PIK step-up to 15.5% facility due November 2022 and warrants
for 28% of fully diluted equity," said S&P Global Ratings credit
analyst Kathryn Archibald.  "We view the debt exchange as
tantamount to a default because the debt maturity was extended
beyond the original term and the new notes' PIK terms would defer
cash interest payments."

S&P expects to raise the corporate credit rating over the next few
days to reflect the company's revised capital structure, which will
comprise a first-lien senior secured credit facility and senior
cash 12.5%/PIK step-up to 15.5% notes.

highly liquid securities, and available committed credit facility
capacity that, taken together, would allow us to operate and to
meet our contractual and contingent obligations in the event that
market-wide disruptions and enterprise-specific events disrupt
normal access to funding," the Company stated.  "The available
liquidity is held at various entities and considers regulatory
restrictions and tax implications that may limit our ability to
transfer funds across entities."

"As of March 31, 2017, assuming a long-term capital markets stress,
we expect that our available liquidity would allow us to continue
to fund all planned loan originations and meet all of our financial
obligations for more than 36 months, assuming no issuance of
unsecured debt or term securitizations.
In addition, our Modified Liquidity Coverage Ratio exceeded 100% at
March 31, 2017."

AMPLIPHI BIOSCIENCES: Amends 3.7-M Shares Prospectus with SEC
-------------------------------------------------------------
AmpliPhi Biosciences Corporation has amended its Form S-1
registration statement relating to the public offering of up to
3,773,585 shares of its common stock and common warrants to
purchase an aggregate of 3,773,585 shares of its common stock (and
the shares of common stock that are issuable from time to time upon
exercise of the common warrants).  The Company amended the
Registration Statement to delay its effective date.

The Company is also offering to each purchaser whose purchase of
shares of common stock in this offering would otherwise result in
the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related
parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Company's
outstanding common stock immediately following the consummation of
this offering, the opportunity to purchase, if the purchaser so
chooses, pre-funded warrants, in lieu of shares of common stock
that would otherwise result in the purchaser's beneficial ownership
exceeding 4.99% of its outstanding common stock.  Each pre-funded
warrant will be exercisable for one share of our common stock.  The
purchase price of each pre-funded warrant will equal the price per
share at which the shares of common stock are being sold to the
public in this offering, minus $0.01, and the exercise price of
each pre-funded warrant will be $0.01 per share.  This offering
also relates to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise
of any pre-funded warrants sold in this offering.  

The common warrants will be exercisable immediately and will expire
five years from the date of issuance.  The shares of common stock
and pre-funded warrants, and the accompanying common warrants, can
only be purchased together in this offering but will be issued
separately and will be immediately separable upon issuance.  The
Company's common stock is listed on the NYSE MKT under the symbol
"APHB."  On April 28, 2017, the last reported sale price of the
Company's common stock on the NYSE MKT was $2.65 per share.  The
public offering price per share of common stock and any pre-funded
warrant and accompanying common warrant will be determined between
the Company and the underwriter at the time of pricing, and may be
at a discount to the current market price. There is no established
public trading market for the pre-funded warrants or common
warrants, and the Company does not expect a market to develop.  In
addition, the Company does not intend to apply for a listing of the
pre-funded warrants or common warrants on any national securities
exchange.

APOLLO ENDOSURGERY: Reports $8.21-M Net Loss for First Quarter
--------------------------------------------------------------
Apollo Endosurgery, Inc., filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing a net loss
of $8.21 million on $14.62 million of revenues for the three months
ended March 31, 2017, compared to a net loss of $6 million on
$16.27 million of revenues for the same period in 2016.

As of March 31, 2017, Apollo Endosurgery had $88.57 million in
total assets, $54.10 million in total liabilities and $34.47
million in total stockholders' equity.

Todd Newton, CEO of Apollo, said, "We were very satisfied with our
first quarter sales.  First, we continued to build momentum for our
endo-bariatric products.  In the first quarter of 2016, we were
very actively engaged in the launch of ORBERA in the U.S. and, last
year's endo-bariatric sales included $2.1 million of first-time
starter kit sales to physicians as they completed training on the
product.  In the first quarter of 2017, U.S. starter kit sales were
$0.3 million, reflecting our intentional transition to focus on
ORBERA utilization in existing accounts. Total U.S. endo-bariatric
sales in the first quarter of 2017 were $3.5 million, a decrease of
23% compared to $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2016, however,
excluding these one-time U.S. ORBERA starter kit sales, adjusted
U.S. endo-bariatric product sales were $3.2 million in the first
quarter 2017, an increase of 31% compared to adjusted U.S.
endo-bariatric product sales of $2.4 million in the first quarter
2016 reflecting both a solid ORBERA reorder rate and OverStitch
sales growth.  Second, the decline rate of our worldwide surgical
business slowed in the first quarter.  In the U.S., the rate of
surgical sales decline in the first quarter was half that which we
experienced in the year 2016 and surgical product sales outside the
United States in the first quarter of 2017 increased 5% compared to
the first quarter of last year."

Total endo-bariatric sales in the first quarter 2017 were $7.3
million, a decrease of 11% compared to $8.2 million in the first
quarter 2016.  The first quarter 2017 included $0.3 million of U.S.
ORBERA starter kit sales compared to $2.1 million in starter kit
sales in the first quarter 2016, which was a very active quarter
for U.S. physician training for ORBERA following the product's
August 2015 FDA approval.  Total U.S. endo-bariatric sales in the
first quarter of 2017 were $3.5 million, a decrease of 23% compared
to $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2016, however, excluding
these one-time U.S. ORBERA starter kit sales, adjusted U.S.
endo-bariatric product sales were $3.2 million in the first quarter
2017, an increase of 31% compared to adjusted U.S. endo-bariatric
product sales of $2.4 million in the first quarter 2016, driven by
growth in ORBERA reorders and increasing OverStitch sales.

Surgical sales in the first quarter 2017 were $7.1 million,
compared to $8.0 million in the first quarter 2016, a decrease of
11%, reflecting an expected decline in gastric banding procedures.
By geography, first quarter 2017 surgical sales declined by $1.0
million in the U.S. and increased by $0.2 million internationally.
Gross margin for the first quarter 2017 was 65%, compared to 70%
for the first quarter 2016.  The decline in gross margin was caused
by changes in product sales mix between the quarters.
Total operating expenses were $16.3 million in the first quarter
2017, compared to $14.4 million in the first quarter 2016.  The
increase is primarily due to higher legal costs included in general
and administrative expenses associated with initial filings and
other public company activities that are not expected to repeat
each quarter.  Research and development expenses also increased due
to activities to improve supply reliability of the OverStitch
product.

Interest expense for the first quarter 2017 decreased $1.3 million
due to the elimination of non-cash interest of $1.2 million
associated with the convertible notes that converted to equity in
December 2016.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $9.2 million as of
March 31, 2017.  The decrease in cash, cash equivalents and
restricted cash from $20.0 million as of Dec. 31, 2016, includes a
$7.0 million principal repayment on the Company's senior secured
credit facility made as part of an amendment to the terms of its

ARABELLA PETROLEUM: Assets Being Sold Jointly with Assets of AEX
----------------------------------------------------------------
Morris Weiss, the Chapter 11 Trustee of Arabella Petroleum Co., LLC
("APC"), asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of
Texas to authorize the sale by auction of the Debtor's assets,
including the receivables for joint interest billings ("JIBs") and
all rights relating thereto, and any other oil and gas interests in
its name and any connection with the sale process being conducted
by the Arabella Exploration, LLC ("AEX") bankruptcy Estate.

A hearing on the Motion is set for May 18, 2017, at 1:30 p.m.

As part of the Mediation Settlement Agreement entered into by and
between the Trustee, AEX, the SEC as Receiver for various Platinum
entities, and other parties, the Trustee agreed to participate in
the sales process for the sale of substantially all assets of AEX.
A hearing to approve the Settlement Agreement is set for May 18,
2017 at 1:30 p.m.  As part of the Settlement Agreement, the Trustee
agreed to allow Assets owned by APC's Estate.

On May 5, 2017, the Court in AEX's bankruptcy entered the Sale
Procedures Order in connection with the sale of the assets of the
Debtors in the AEX case and granting related relief.  The Sale
Procedures Order provides various deadlines for soliciting bids for
assets, conducting the sale of the Assets and obtaining approval by
the AEX Bankruptcy Court.  The key dates set forth in the Sale
Procedures Order, and approved by the AEX Bankruptcy Court are: (i)
a bid deadline of July 27, 2017; (ii) an auction date of Aug. 7,
2017; and (iii) a sale hearing on Aug. 21, 2017.

A copy of the Sale Procedures Order attached to the Motion is
available for free at:

      http://bankrupt.com/misc/Arabella_Petroleum_344_Sales.pdf

As agreed to between the parties in the Settlement Agreement, APC
will be receiving 35 % of the Net Proceeds of the assets sold
pursuant to the sale process approved in the AEX case.  Moreover,
APC has the ability to offer its JIBs for sale as part of the
process, but retains the right to withdraw any and all of those
JIBs from the sale process.

The Trustee does not intend to hold a separate sale process (unless
the JIBs are pulled from the AEX sales procedure) as attempting to
separately market the assets of the Debtor's estate may not result
in a higher price being paid.  In order to ensure that the
acquiring party has appropriate title to the assets being conveyed
by AEX as well as the Assets of APC, the Trustee agreed to
participate in the AEX sale process and receive the designated
proceeds as set forth above in order to allow conveyance of a clean
title to the assets and maximize recovery for both AEX and APC.

The Trustee has proposed the sale of the Assets after thorough
consideration of all viable alternatives, and has concluded that
the sale is supported by a number of sound business reasons.
Without the sale, he would be left to attempt to market the Assets
on his own.  The amounts being received from the sale process in
the AEX case will help provide a return for creditors in the case.
He has determined, in his considered business judgment, that a sale
of the Assets as requested provides the best and most efficient
means for him to maximize the value of the estate.

Accordingly, the Trustee asks the Court enter an Order authorizing
him to sell the JIBs and all rights relating thereto (with the
right to remove those from the sale process as stated) and any
other oil and gas interests in the name of APC and any connection
with the sale process being conducted by the AEX bankruptcy Estate.
Upon approval of the sale in the AEX case, APC will ask an order
from the Court authorizing the sale of those assets to the
purchaser or purchasers authorized in the AEX case.

Deloitte & Touche LLP in Minneapolis, Minn., states that the

lack of sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations, including
repayment of renewable unsecured subordinated notes, and sustain
its operations raise substantial doubt about its ability to

assets of $2.21 million, total liabilities of $33.51 million, and a

AVONDALE MEADOWS: S&P Assigns 'BB' Rating on 2017 Revenue Bonds
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB' long-term rating to the
Indiana Finance Authority's series 2017 educational facilities
multipurpose revenue bonds, issued for Avondale Meadows Academy
Inc. (AMA).  The outlook is stable.

"We assessed AMA's enterprise profile as adequate, characterized by
solid demand with robust enrollment growth, good academics, and a
stable and capable management team," said S&P Global Ratings
analyst Luke Gildner.  "We assessed AMA's financial profile as
vulnerable, with less than 1x pro forma maximum annual debt service
coverage, consecutive years of operating deficits, and an elevated
debt burden."

The stable outlook reflects S&P's view that AMA will maintain its
healthy demand profile and meet its growth projections.  Given good
governance and management oversight, S&P anticipates that operating
margins will improve over time and liquidity will remain acceptable
for the rating.

Given the limited flexibility stemming from the school's variable
operating results and elevated debt load, any unanticipated
enrollment declines, operating challenges, or cash outlays beyond
what is projected in the next year could result in a negative
rating action.

A higher rating is unlikely during the outlook period; however, S&P
could raise the rating in the longer term if the school grows its
operating base resulting in a moderating of the debt service
burden, and improves maximum annual debt service coverage to levels
more commensurate with a higher rating while maintaining liquidity
near current levels.

BIOLARGO INC: Calvert Will Remain CEO & Pres. for the Next 5 Years
------------------------------------------------------------------
BioLargo, Inc. and its president and chief executive officer Dennis
P. Calvert entered into an employment agreement, replacing in its
entirety the previous employment agreement with Mr. Calvert dated
April 30, 2007.

The Calvert Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Calvert will
continue to serve as the president and chief executive officer of
the Company and receive base compensation equal to his current rate
of pay of $288,603 annually.  In addition to this base
compensation, the agreement provides that he is eligible to
participate in incentive plans, stock option plans, and similar
arrangements as determined by the Company's Board of Directors,
health insurance premium payments for himself and his immediate
family, a car allowance of $800 per month, paid vacation of four
weeks per year, and bonuses in such amount as the Compensation
Committee may determine from time to time.

The Calvert Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Calvert will be
granted an option to purchase 3,731,322 shares of the Company's
common stock.  The Option will be a non-qualified stock option,
exercisable at $0.45 per share, which represents the market price
of the Company's common stock as of the date of the agreement,
exercisable for ten years from the date of grant and vesting in
equal increments over five years.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any portion of the Option which has not yet vested will be
immediately vested in the event of, and prior to, a change of
control, as defined in the Calvert Employment Agreement.  The
agreement also provides for a grant of 1,500,000 shares of common
stock, subject to the execution of a "lock-up agreement" whereby
the shares remain unvested unless and until the earlier of (i) a
sale of the Company, (ii) the successful commercialization of the
Company's products or technologies as demonstrated by its receipt
of at least $3,000,000 in cash, or the recognition of $3,000,000 in
revenue, over a 12-month period from the sale of products and/or
the license of technology, and (iii) the Company's breach of the
employment agreement resulting in his termination.  The Option
contains the other terms standard in option agreements issued by
the Company, including provisions for a cashless exercise.

The Calvert Employment Agreement has a term of five years, unless
earlier terminated in accordance with its terms.  The Calvert
Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Calvert's employment may be
terminated by the Company due to his death or disability, for
cause, or upon a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy or dissolution of
the Company.  "Disability" as used in the Calvert Employment
Agreement means physical or mental incapacity or illness rendering
Mr. Calvert unable to perform his duties on a long-term basis (i)
as evidenced by his failure or inability to perform his duties for
a total of 120 days in any 360-day period, or (ii) as determined by
an independent and licensed physician whom Company selects, or
(iii) as determined without recourse by the Company's disability
insurance carrier.  "Cause" means that Mr. Calvert has (i) engaged
in willful misconduct in connection with the Company's business; or
(ii) been convicted of, or plead guilty or nolo contendre in
connection with, fraud or any crime that constitutes a felony or
that involves moral turpitude or theft.  If Mr. Calvert's
employment is terminated due to merger or acquisition, then he will
be eligible to receive the greater of (i) one year's compensation
plus an additional one half year for each year of service since the
effective date of the employment agreement or (ii) one year's
compensation plus an additional one half year for each year
remaining in the term of the agreement.  Otherwise, he is only
entitled to receive compensation due through the date of
termination.
  
The Calvert Employment Agreement requires Mr. Calvert to keep
certain information confidential, not to solicit customers or
employees of the Company or interfere with any business
relationship of the Company, and to assign all inventions made or
created during the term of the Calvert Employment Agreement as
"work made for hire".

                Exercise of 2007 Stock Option

On April 30, 2017, Mr. Calvert delivered a notice of exercise of
3,866,630 shares pursuant to his stock option agreement dated April
30, 2007.  The exercise price was $0.18 per share, and the Company
issued 2,501,937 shares, calculated by multiplying the difference
between the market price of $0.51 and the exercise price of $0.18
with the number of shares exercised, and dividing that amount by
the market price.  The remaining 3,866,629 shares available for
purchase under the option agreement expired unexercised.
  
Pursuant to a "lock-up agreement" dated April 30, 2017, Mr. Calvert
agreed to restrict the sales of the shares received until the
earlier of (i) the consummation of a sale (in a single transaction
or in a series of related transactions) of the Company by means of
a sale of (a) a majority of the then outstanding common stock
(whether by merger, consolidation, sale or transfer of common
stock, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or (b) all or
substantially all of its assets; and (ii) the successful
commercialization of the Company's products or technologies as
demonstrated by its receipt of at least $3,000,000 in cash, or the
recognition of $3,000,000 in revenue, over a 12-month period from
the sale of products and/or the license of technology; and (iii)
the Company's breach of the employment agreement between the
Company and Calvert dated May 2, 2017, and resulting in Calvert's
termination.

BioLargo, Inc., is a provider of platform technologies.  The
Company's products are used to eliminate contaminants that threaten
the water, health and quality of life.  Its technology has
commercial applications within several industries.  The Company
focuses on four areas: water treatment; industrial odor control

(CHAPP), and advanced wound care.  Its AOS Filter combines iodine,

device.  It generates oxidation potential in order to oxidize and
breakdown or otherwise eliminate, soluble organic contaminant,
which are found in contaminated water.

Biolargo reported a net loss of $8.07 million on $281,106 of total

of $5.07 million on $127,582 of total revenue for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2015.  As of Dec. 31, 2016, Biolargo had $2.11 million in
total assets, $2.88 million in total liabilities and a total
stockholders' deficit of $770,198.

Haskell & White LLP, in Irvine, California, issued a "going
concern" qualification on the consolidated financial statements for
the year ended Dec. 31, 2016, citing that the Company has incurred
recurring losses, negative cash flows from operations and has
limited capital resources, and a net stockholders' deficit. These
matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.


BIOSCRIP INC: Incurs $21.8 Million Net Loss in First Quarter
------------------------------------------------------------
BioScrip, Inc., filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing a net loss
attributable to common stockholders of $21.81 million on $217.8
million of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017,
compared with a net loss attributable to common stockholders of
$11.70 million on $238.5 million of net revenue for the same period
in 2016.

As of March 31, 2017, Bioscrip had $602.4 million in total assets,
$575.9 million in total liabilities, $2.54 million in series A
convertible preferred stock, $71.84 million in series C convertible
preferred stock, and a $47.85 million total stockholders' deficit.

For the first quarter, the Company reported revenue from continuing
operations of $217.8 million, net loss from continuing operations
of $19.0 million, and adjusted EBITDA of $5.2 million, in line with
the Company's plan.  For the full-year 2017, the Company continues
to expect to achieve adjusted EBITDA in the range of $45.0 million
to $55.0 million.

Gross profit margin increased to 30.1%, up from 26.9% in the first
quarter of 2016, reflecting the positive impacts from increased
core product mix, Home Solutions synergies, and other cost
reductions.

The Company remains on track to achieve the previously announced
$17.0 million in Home Solutions synergies and other incremental
annualized cost reductions of $23.0 to $25.0 million, by the end of
2017.

Consolidated loss from continuing operations, net of income taxes,
was $19.0 million, an increased loss of $9.2 million from the first
quarter of 2016.  The increased loss was primarily driven by the
negative impact of the Cures Act, plus additional depreciation,
amortization and interest expense, offset partially by higher gross
margins resulting from increased core product mix, Home Solutions
synergies, and other cost reductions.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $5.2 million, as compared to $7.4
million in the first quarter of 2016.  This expected decrease was
primarily driven by the negative impact of the Cures Act, offset
partially by higher gross margins resulting from increased core
product mix, Home Solutions synergies, and other cost reductions.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had $16.0 million of cash and it
was in full compliance with its bank covenants.

"I am pleased with our Company's first quarter performance, which
was in line with our plan.  Our sales team met our revenue target
for the quarter and continued to increase our core revenue mix.  In
addition, our gross profit margin improved 320 basis points year
over year and adjusted EBITDA met our expectations, driven by
improved core revenue mix, supply chain efficiencies and
cost-structure improvements," said Daniel E. Greenleaf, President
and Chief Executive Officer.  "We also successfully completed the
integration of the Home Solutions business and we remain on track
to realize the full $17.0 million of cost synergies and incremental
$23.0 million to $25.0 million in cost savings."

The Company is reiterating its prior guidance of adjusted EBITDA in
the range of $45.0 million to $55.0 million for full-year 2017.
This guidance incorporates the estimated negative impact of the
Cures Act legislation and the Company's estimates regarding its
contract with UnitedHealthcare.  The Company continues to evaluate
the impact of the UnitedHealthcare contract on its 2017 revenue and
will provide updated 2017 revenue guidance at the appropriate
time.

liquidity event within 12 months if it is unable to rapidly improve
profitability; moreover, given the company's lowered guidance, its
meaningful EBITDA shortfall in the third quarter, and its pattern
of falling short of its expectations, our confidence in the
company's ability to execute on its cost-cutting and other
strategic initiatives is limited," said credit analyst Elan Nat.

In March 2016, Moody's Investors Service downgraded BioScrip's
Corporate Family Rating to 'Caa2' from 'Caa1' and Probability of
Default Rating to 'Caa2-PD' from 'Caa1-PD'.


BLUE BUFFALO: S&P Rates New $520MM Sr. Secured Credit Facilities
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it assigned its 'BB+' issue-level
ratings to Blue Buffalo Pet Products Inc.'s proposed new $520
million senior secured credit facilities, consisting of a $120
million revolving credit facility due in 2022 and $400 million term
loan B due in 2024.  The recovery rating is '1', indicating S&P's
expectation for very high (90% to 100%; rounded value 95%) recovery
in the event of a payment default.  Proceeds from the issuance will
refinance the company's existing $400 million term loan due 2019
(balance as of Dec. 31, 2017 of $383 million) and $40 million
revolving credit facility maturing in 2017.  This transaction is
leverage neutral.  For the 12 months ended Dec. 31, 2017, S&P
estimates debt leverage of roughly 1.6x. The 'BB-' corporate credit
rating and stable outlook on the company are unaffected by this
transaction.

The ratings are based on preliminary terms and are subject to
review upon receipt of final documentation.  S&P will withdraw its
ratings on the company's existing debt and our corporate credit
rating on the existing borrower, Blue Buffalo Co. Ltd., upon the
close of this transaction.

S&P's 'BB-' corporate credit rating reflects the company's
ownership by financial sponsors Invus (45%), low leverage in the
1.5x-2x range, and narrow focus in the natural pet food industry.
S&P do not forecast the company to increase leverage as a result of
its expansion plans, or to pursue shareholder-friendly activities
in the near term because of its strong cash balances and free cash
flow generation.  Blue Buffalo has a narrow product focus as a
manufacturer and marketer of premium-priced "natural" pet food
(defined as such based on its ingredients), all sold under the Blue
Buffalo brand name.  The company's market share in the wholesome
and natural segment is 34%, which is over four times the size of
the next largest wholesome natural brand, but only 6% share in the
overall pet food industry and feeds only 2%-3% of the 164 million
pets in the U.S. (per company estimate).  In the highly competitive
pet food industry, Blue Buffalo competes against larger and more
diversified players like Nestle, Mars, J.M. Smucker, and
Colgate-Palmolive, which offer multiple pet food brands and have
significantly greater financially wherewithal for product
innovation and marketing.  The company customer diversity is slowly
improving but still remains high, with specialty pet retailers,
like PetSmart and PetCo, accounting for 38% (vs. 49% in 2014) and
21% (vs. 24% in 2014) of 2016 revenues, respectively. Trends in the
wholesome and natural food segment are favorable and faster-growing
than the overall pet industry, as consumers are increasingly
focused on their pet's diets.  However, the company is not immune
to the changing dynamics in the retail landscape, especially in the
short term, as it faces increased competition and pressure in the
specialty channel.  Also, untracked channels, particularly
e-commerce, continue to grow rapidly, where Blue Buffalo holds
significant competitive advantage and plans to ramp up sales and
gain market share.

                          RECOVERY ANALYSIS

Capital Structure:

The issuer of all of the company's debt at the close of this
transaction will be Blue Buffalo Pet Products Inc., the parent
company.  Following this transaction, the company's debt structure
will consist of:

   -- $120 million revolving credit facility due 2022
   -- $400 million senior secured term loan B due 2024 with a $285

      million accordion feature tied to first lien gross leverage
      of 3.5x

Security and guarantee package:

The new facility is secured by a perfected first priority lien on
substantially all tangible and intangible assets and capital stock
of certain subsidiaries held by the borrowers and guarantors,
subject to other customary exceptions.

Covenants:
The revolver and term loan are subject to a maximum consolidated
first lien net leverage ratio of 4x.

Insolvency regimes:
Blue Buffalo Pet Products Inc. is incorporated and headquartered in
the U.S.  In the event of an insolvency proceeding, S&P anticipates
the company would file for bankruptcy protection under the auspices
of the U.S. federal bankruptcy court system and would be unlikely
to involve other foreign jurisdictions.

Key Analytical Factors:
S&P's simulated default scenario contemplates a default in 2021
stemming from a change in consumer preference or significant brand
deterioration from a product recall, litigation, or false
advertising.  S&P has valued the company as a going concern, using
a 7x multiple of S&P's projected emergence EBITDA.  The EBITDA
multiple of 7x reflects the company's leading market position in
the pet food industry and high brand equity and is consistent with
similarly rated peers.

S&P has increased its default EBITDA from its previous analysis due
to the higher interest charges assumed at default given the larger
revolver commitment (assumed 85% drawn at default) and higher term
loan balance.  The default EBITDA of $86.7 million (up from $76.9
million) roughly reflects fixed charge requirements of about $36.5
million in interest costs (assuming a higher rate because of
default and includes prepetition interest), $4 million in term loan
amortization and $15.5 million in minimal capital expenditures
(capex) assumed at default.  S&P applies a 55% operational
adjustment as it believes the fixed charges of the company
undervalue the company given its relatively lower debt leverage.
S&P estimates a gross valuation of $606.8 million assuming a 7x
EBITDA multiple that is within the range S&P used for some of the
company's branded peers.

Simulated Default Assumptions:
   -- Year of default: 2021
   -- EBITDA at emergence: $86.7 million
   -- Implied enterprise value multiple: 7x

Calculation of EBITDA at emergence:
   -- Debt service assumption: $40.5 million (assumed default year

      interest plus amortization)
   -- Minimum capex assumption: $15.5 million
   -- Operational adjustment: 55%
   -- Emergence EBITDA: $86.7 million

Simplified waterfall:
   -- Emergence EBITDA: $86.7 million
   -- Enterprise Value multiple: 7x
   -- Gross recovery value: $606.8 million
   -- Net recovery value for waterfall after 5% administrative
      expenses: $576.4 million
   -- Obligor/nonobligor valuation split in %: 95/5
   -- Collateral value available to secured first-lien debt:
      $566.4 million
   -- Estimated senior secured first-lien claims: $504.2 million
      -- Recovery range for senior secured debt: 90%-100% (rounded

      estimate: 95%)

BOMBARDIER RECREATIONAL: S&P Affirms 'BB' CCR; Outlook Stable
-------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it affirmed its 'BB' long-term corporate
credit rating on Valcourt, Que.-based recreational products
manufacturer Bombardier Recreational Products Inc. (BRP).  The
outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BBB-'
issue-level rating, with a '1' recovery rating, on the company's
C$425 million asset-based loan (ABL).  The '1' recovery rating
indicates very high (90%-100%: rounded estimate of 95%) recovery in
a default scenario.  S&P Global Ratings also affirmed its 'BB'
issue-level rating, with a '3' recovery rating, on BRP's
US$700 million term loan.  The '3' recovery rating indicates
meaningful (50%-70%: rounded estimate of 60%) recovery in a default
scenario.

"The upward revision to our business risk profile assessment on BRP
reflects our view of the company's improving profitability and
lesser dependence on seasonal products," said S&P Global Ratings
credit analyst Silverius Miralles.  "We expect BRP to have stable
EBITDA margins mainly driven by its increasing product diversity
and higher exposure on year-round products, which partially offsets
the volatility associated with seasonal products, thus leading to
stable earnings," Mr. Miralles added.

Also, the company has improved its cost structure with its ability
to shift manufacturing and assembly to low-cost locations, such as
Mexico, as well as introduce more efficient platforms through the
new modularity approach, eventually leading to improved margins. In
addition, BRP has managed inventory levels with its dealers,
launched new products to gain market share, and expanded its dealer
network over the past few years, all of which support S&P's revised
business risk assessment.  At the same time, S&P is also revising
its comparable ratings analysis modifier on the company to neutral
from positive.

S&P's significant financial risk assessment on the company is based
on S&P's 'FS-4' financial policy modifier, to reflect BRP's 27.8%
ownership (about 37% voting control) by private equity firm Bain
Capital.  However, S&P believes that credit metrics will remain in
line with, or be stronger than, our significant financial ratio
indications of 3x-4x debt-to-EBITDA.  That said, BRP's solid credit
metrics could deteriorate meaningfully, given the cyclical nature
of the company's seasonal portfolio, and exposure to foreign
exchange fluctuations.

The stable outlook reflects S&P Global Ratings' view that given the
company's current product portfolio and improving operating
efficiency, BRP will manage to an adjusted debt-to-EBITDA of
2.0x-2.5x and FFO to debt above 30%.  S&P also expects BRP will
continue to strengthen its profitability based on revenue gains
from new products and dealer network expansion, modest market share
gains, and margin enhancements from lower manufacturing costs.

Although unlikely, S&P could raise the rating on BRP if the company
sustains adjusted debt-to-EBITDA below 2x and FFO-to-debt above
45%, along with reduced financial sponsor influence and
expectations of moderate shareholder returns.

S&P could lower the ratings if credit metrics weaken materially
because of poor operating performance, or large debt-funded
shareholder distributions, resulting in adjusted debt-to-EBITDA
approaching 4.0x or FFO-to-debt approaching 20%.

CALCEUS ACQUISITION: Moody's Cuts Corporate Family Rating to Caa1
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded Calceus Acquisition Inc.'s
Corporate Family Rating ("CFR") to Caa1 from B3, Probability of
Default Rating ("PDR") to Caa1-PD from B3-PD, and the rating on the
senior secured first lien term loan to Caa1 from B3. The rating
outlook is stable.

The downgrade reflects Moody's expectations that ongoing industry
wide weak apparel and footwear conditions particularly in the
wholesale channel will make it challenging for Cole Haan to
maintain its current level of operating performance, resulting in
weak free cash flow generation relative to debt levels. Even though
its direct-to-consumer business is growing, Cole Haan's cash flow
generation underperformed its budget in the past two quarters and
Moody's expects it to turn modestly negative going forward given
the continued highly promotional environment and traffic decline
across the apparel and footwear retail industry. Moody's expects
this to result in higher revolver borrowings leaving the company
with limited cushion to manage any further earnings deterioration.

Moody's took the following rating actions on Calceus Acquisition,
Inc.:

- Corporate Family Rating, downgraded to Caa1 from B3;

- Probability of Default Rating, downgraded to Caa1-PD from
B3-PD;

- $309 million ($320 million face value) Senior Secured Term Loan
   due 2020, downgraded to Caa1 (LGD4) from B3 (LGD4);

- Stable outlook

Concurrent with this rating action, Moody's changed the methodology
used to rate Cole Haan to Retail Industry published in October 2015
from Global Apparel Companies published in May 2013, to reflect the
shift in the company's distribution channels that has led to a
predominance of retail over wholesale.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Caa1 CFR reflects Cole Haan's adequate but weakened liquidity,
including Moody's expectations of negative free cash flow and
limited revolver availability. Following EBITDA improvement in the
first three quarters of fiscal 2017, management-adjusted
debt/EBITDA stood at 6.1 times and Moody's-adjusted debt/EBITDA at
5.9 times as of February 25, 2017. Moody's expects weak earnings
trends in the next 12-24 months as a result of challenging industry
wide apparel and footwear conditions despite Cole Haan's continued
execution on product innovation and digital initiatives, which have
led to growth in the direct-to-consumer channel. The rating also
reflects Cole Haan's increased fashion risk and exposure to
discretionary spending as a result of its redefined brand identity
and fashion-forward product assortment. Nevertheless, the rating is
supported by Cole Haan's good brand recognition, continued growth
in the direct-to-consumer business and diverse distribution
channels.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's opinion that Cole Haan has
adequate liquidity over the next 12 months despite expectations for
modestly negative free cash flow generation and earnings declines.

The ratings could be upgraded if the company improves its liquidity
profile, including solid positive free cash flow generation and
ample revolver availability. Quantitatively, the ratings could be
upgraded if Cole Haan maintains Moody's-adjusted debt/EBITDA below
5.5 times and EBITA/interest expense above 1.5 times.

The ratings could be downgraded if the company's EBITDA or
liquidity deteriorates, including a higher level of negative free
cash generation than currently expected. Quantitatively, ratings
could be downgraded if Moody's-adjusted debt/EBITDA is sustained
above 6.5 times.

Headquartered in New York, NY, Cole Haan is a designer and retailer
of men's and women's footwear, handbags, and accessories. Net
revenues for twelve months ended February 25, 2017 were
approximately $600 million. Apax Partners and current management
purchased the company from NIKE Inc. in early 2013.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Retail Industry
published in October 2015.


CAMBER ENERGY: Wants Investor Barred From Forcing Shares Issuance
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Jack Newsham of Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Camber Energy Inc.
has asked a Texas federal judge to prevent key investor Discover
Growth Fund from compelling it to issue new shares, saying the
investor's moves rest on a strained interpretation of
"unconscionable" contracts and are driving Camber toward
bankruptcy.

Law360 relates that Camber said offshore investor Discover Growth
committed fraud by failing to disclose its "unreasonable
interpretation" of several agreements from 2016 that gave Camber
$10 million in exchange for stocks, warrants and convertible debt.


                     About Camber Energy

Based in Houston, Texas, Camber Energy (NYSE MKT: CEI) is a
growth-oriented, independent oil and gas company engaged in the
development of crude oil and natural gas in the Austin Chalk and
Eagle Ford formations in south Texas, the Permian Basin in west
Texas, and the Hunton formation in central Oklahoma.

Lucas Energy changed its name to Camber Energy, Inc., effective
Jan. 5, 2017, to more accurately reflect the Company's strategic
shift from its Austin Chalk and Eagleford roots to an expanding
addition of shallow oil and gas reserves with longer-lived,
lower-risk production profiles.

Lucas Energy reported a net loss of $25.4 million for the year
ended March 31, 2016, compared to a net loss of $5.12 million for
the year ended March 31, 2015.  As of Dec. 31, 2016, Camber Energy
had $71.34 million in total assets, $49.12 million in total
liabilities and $22.21 million in total stockholders' equity.

Hein & Associates LLP, in Houston, Texas, issued a "going concern"
qualification on the consolidated financial statements for the year
ended March 31, 2016, citing that the Company has incurred
significant losses from operations and had a working capital
deficit of $9.6 million at March 31, 2015.  These factors raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.

CAMPBELLTON-GRACEVILLE: Hires GlassRatner as Restructuring Advisor

from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Florida
to employ GlassRatner Advisory & Capital Group, LLC as
restructuring advisors to the Debtor, and to provide a chief
restructuring officer, nunc pro tunc to the petition date.

maximize the value of its assets. As such, the Debtor has chosen to
utilize GlassRatner personnel as appropriate and has appointed the
firm's Marshall Glade to the position of CRO.  Mr. Glade will work
with the Debtor's board and its officers, employees, and

billed in the month immediately following; and

      d. The applicable Monthly Cap will be $60,000.

      e. The Debtor and GlassRatner agree to use reasonable efforts

unsecured debt and S&P's 'BB' issue-level rating on its preferred
shares.  The outlook remains negative.

"The affirmation reflects our view that CBL's operating and credit
protection measures will remain pressured over the next few
quarters as tenant distress increases, leading to further store
closures and additional bankruptcies at higher rates than
previously forecast," said credit analyst Kristina Koltunicki.
"While we believe CBL has been historically successful in its
ability to repurpose and re-tenant vacant space, the retail
industry is going through a structural change that may cause the
previously moderate cadence of store closures to become
increasingly difficult situation to manage.  Credit protection
measures also remain elevated compared to our previous forecast as
we had expected the company to deleverage its balance sheet at a
faster pace."

The negative outlook reflects S&P's expectation that CBL will
continue to experience a difficult operating environment (increased
bankruptcies and store closures, pressuring same store NOI growth
and occupancy) that will persist over the next few quarters.  S&P
will look toward the back-half of 2017 and the beginning of 2018 to
better gauge the cadence and impact of these closures on CBL's
properties, credit metrics, and ability to refinance upcoming
maturities.

S&P could lower the ratings if credit protection measures fail to
improve and remains elevated with debt to EBITDA in the high-7x
area over the next 12 to 18 months.  This could occur if CBL
experiences greater weakness in operating metrics than S&P
projects, potentially driven by a failure to re-lease vacant space
or to complete redevelopments and developments as anticipated.
Given S&P do not expect meaningful debt repayment, weakness in
operating metrics, such as persistent negative same-store NOI
growth could cause further EBITDA declines beyond S&P's
expectations.

S&P could revise the outlook back to stable if CBL is able to
improve operating trends and strengthen credit protection measures
from current levels.  These two items would indicate that despite a
continued negative retail sentiment in the market, management could
stabilize performance and absorb vacant space with minimal
disruption to its business.  At that time, S&P would expect the
company to achieve flat to slightly positive same-store NOI growth,
execute on extending upcoming debt maturities, and improve debt to
EBITDA towards the low-7x area.



CENTRAL GROCERS: Jewel Food Buying All Strack Assets for $100M
--------------------------------------------------------------
Central Grocers, Inc., and affiliates ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Delaware to authorize bidding procedures in
connection with the sale of substantially all assets of Strack and
Van Til, Super Market, Inc. to Jewel Food Stores, Inc. ("Stalking
Horse Bidder") for the aggregate purchase price of $70,000,000,
plus the cost of inventory at such Strack Stores, estimated to be
approximately $30,000,000, subject to overbid at an auction on June
26, 2017.

The consummation of sale transactions that will maximize value for
their estates and preserve as many jobs of their employees as
possible is the cornerstone of the Debtors' chapter 11 strategy.
The Debtors are seeking to sell substantially all of their assets,
which consist primarily of the grocery stores operated by Strack
under the "Strack & Van Til," "Ultra Foods," and "Town & Country"
banners ("Strack Stores"), including related leasehold interests
and inventory; an over 1,000,000 square foot warehousing and
distribution facility located in Joliet, Illinois ("Distribution
Center"); and other real property owned by the Debtors.  To that
end, they have secured the Stalking Horse Bid from the Stalking
Horse Bidder for the sale of 19 Strack Stores, for the purchase
price.

In December 2016, the Debtors initiated a comprehensive marketing
process to sell the Company as a going concern or to consummate
another strategic, value-maximizing transaction that would resolve
the Company's operational and financial challenges.  To that end,
the Company retained Peter J. Solomon Co., LLC ("PJSC") to serve as
its investment banker and to design and execute an "M&A" process.
PJSC solicited interest from parties in consummating a strategic
transaction with the Company, either through a merger or a sale.

By the end of January 2017, the Company had received six bids for
overlapping and non-overlapping Assets, including certain of the
Strack Stores, the Distribution Center, related inventory, and
other real and personal property.  After extensive deliberations
with its advisors and Prepetition Secured Lenders and several
rounds of negotiations with bidders, the Company elected to pursue
the Stalking Horse Bid for the sale of 19 Strack Stores and related
inventory.

Appreciating their challenging financial condition and the tight
timeline that likely would govern the postpetition sale process
under the Debtors' DIP Financing, the Debtors accomplished as much
as possible prior to the commencement of these cases.  With the
Stalking Horse Bid in place, the Debtors are prepared to execute
the last leg of their sale process, which will include a
postpetition marketing campaign, consistent with the terms of the
Stalking Horse Agreement and the Bidding Procedures.

Contemporaneously with the Motion, the Debtors have filed a motion
seeking approval of DIP Financing provided by certain of their
Prepetition Secured Lenders ("DIP Lenders").  Although they expect
that access to the DIP Financing, together with the use of cash
collateral, will provide them with sufficient runway to consummate
value-maximizing Sale Transactions for substantially all of their
Assets, it cannot be overemphasized that time is of the essence.
Given the significant costs associated with the ongoing operations
of the Debtors' businesses and their current financial condition,
the DIP Lenders have established strict Milestones for the Debtors'
sale process.

Specifically, the Debtors and the DIP Lenders have agreed to, among
others, these milestones:

   a. On May 12, 2017, the Debtors will file with the Court a
bidding procedures motion for the sale of all or substantially all
of the assets of Strack and its Debtor subsidiaries together with
bidding procedures;

   b. On May 17, 2017, the Debtors will execute an asset purchase
agreement, in form and substance acceptable to the agent under the
DIP Financing facility ("DIP Agent"), evidencing a sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of Strack and its Debtors
subsidiaries to a purchaser acceptable to the DIP Agent and the
Required Lenders, subject to the receipt of higher or better bids;

   c. The Court will have entered the Bidding Procedures Order by
the date that is 30 calendar days after the Commencement Date;

   d. The Debtors will commence an auction for the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of Strack and its Debtors
affiliates in accordance with the Bidding Procedures on or before
the date that is 55 calendar days after the Commencement Date;

   e. Within 15 calendar days after the conclusion of the auction,
the Debtors will obtain an order approving the sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of Strack and its Debtor
subsidiaries, which order will provide that the net sale proceeds
will be applied to the DIP Obligations and/or Prepetition Revolving
Obligations, at the DIP Agent's sole discretion; and

   f. Closing of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets
of Strack and its Debtor subsidiaries by the date that is (i) 90
calendar days after the entry of the sale order approving such
sale, if the sale is to the Stalking Horse Bidder; or (ii) 30
calendar days after the entry of the sale order approving such
sale, if the sale is to any other buyer approved by the DIP Agent
and Required Lenders.

The Stalking Horse Agreement represents a binding bid for 19 Strack
Stores and related assets, for a total consideration of
$70,000,000, plus the actual cost of inventory at such Strack
Stores at closing.  By the Motion, the Debtors ask authority to
provide the Stalking Horse Bidder with standard Stalking Horse Bid
Protections.  In particular, the Stalking Horse Agreement provides
for the payment of a (i) a Break-up Fee in an amount equal to 3% of
the purchase price of the Stalking Horse Package; and (ii)
Reimbursement of up to $500,000 for reasonable and documented costs
and expenses incurred by the Stalking Horse Bidder in connection
with the Stalking Horse Agreement and participation in the Auction
and sale process, in each case, in the event that the Debtors
consummate an Alternative Transaction.

The Bidding Procedures establish initial overbid minimum and
subsequent bidding increment requirements and also provide that, if
the Stalking Horse Bidder bids on the Stalking Horse Package at the
Auction, the Stalking Horse Bidder will be entitled to a credit in
the amount of its Termination Payment against the increased
purchase price for the Stalking Horse Package ("Stalking Horse Bid
Protections").

The salient terms of the Stalking Horse Agreement are:

   1. Closing and Other Deadlines:

       i. Initial Closing will take place on the third Business Day
after all conditions in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been
satisfied or waived.  Each subsequent Closing will take place on
the third Business Day after all conditions in Section 7.3 and
Section 7.4 have been satisfied or waived.

      ii. The Debtors and the Stalking Horse Bidder will negotiate
a Closing schedule within ten (10) days after the conclusion of the
Auction.

     iii. If the Initial Closing does not occur prior to Sept. 12,
2017, either the Stalking Horse Bidder or the Debtors may terminate
the Stalking Horse Agreement.  The Debtors may terminate the
Stalking Horse Agreement if the last closing has not occurred
within 90 days after entry of the applicable Sale Order, so long as
(i) the Auction has commenced on June 29, 2017, and (ii) the Court
has entered the applicable Sale Order on July 11, 2017.  The
Debtors may also terminate the Stalking Horse Agreement if the
Deposit Amount is not deposited by the Stalking Horse Bidder within
two Business Days following the Initial Closing.

      iv. The Stalking Horse Bidder may terminate the Agreement
upon the failure of the Debtors to satisfy a series of Bankruptcy
Milestones; specifically: (A) the Court will have entered the
Bidding Procedures Order on June 5, 2017; (B) the will have entered
the applicable Sale Order on July 11, 2017; (C) the Debtors will
have filed a motion seeking approval of DIP Financing acceptable to
the Stalking Horse Bidder on May 15, 2017; (D) the Debtors will
have obtained an interim order approving the DIP Financing on May
22, 2017; (E) the Debtors will have obtained a final order
approving the DIP Financing on June 9, 2017; and (F) the final
order approving the DIP Financing will not have been stayed or
reversed on appeal.

   2. Good Faith Deposit: $25,000,000

   3. Use of Proceeds: If the Termination Payment becomes due and
payable by the Sellers to the Buyer under the Stalking Horse
Agreement, it will be paid from the proceeds of the Alternative
Transaction that triggered the payment to become due.

    4. Requested Findings as to Successor Liability: The Debtors
seek to sell the Acquired Assets to the Stalking Horse Bidder free
and clear of all Liens.  The Stalking Horse Bidder will not have
any derivative, successor, transferee or vicarious Liability for
Liabilities of the Debtors as a result of the transactions
contemplated by the Agreement.

   5. Sale Free and Clear of Unexpired Leases: The Debtors do not
seek to sell the Acquired Assets free and clear of a possessory
leasehold interest, license, or other right.

   6. Provisions Providing Bid Protections to Stalking Horse or
Initial Bidder: The Stalking Horse Bidder will be entitled to
payment of (i) a break-up fee in an amount equal to 3% of the Base
Purchase Price; and (ii) reimbursement of up to $500,000 for
reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by the
Stalking Horse Bidder in connection with the Stalking Horse
Agreement and participation in the Auction and sale process.

Additionally, and importantly, the Stalking Horse Bidder has agreed
to interview and extend offers of employment to substantially all
of the Covered Employees employed at the Strack Stores in the
Stalking Horse Package.  The Stalking Horse Bidder also has agreed
to negotiate in good faith with the Affected Unions representing
Covered Employees to achieve collective bargaining agreements and
other labor contracts that are acceptable to the Stalking Horse
Bidder and consistent with the terms of its current agreements with
the Affected Unions.

The Debtors ask authority to enter into Additional Stalking Horse
Agreement with Additional Stalking Horse Bidders, pursuant to which
the Debtors would provide Additional Stalking Horse Bidders with
Additional Stalking Horse Bid Protections.

Specifically, the Debtors propose to offer each Additional Stalking
Horse Bidder a break-up fee in an amount that will not exceed 3% of
the cash portion of the purchase price in the applicable Additional
Stalking Horse Bid ("Additional Termination Payment").  Parties in
interest who wish to object to the provision of an Additional
Termination Payment must file within five calendar days after
service of the Sale Notice or relevant Supplemental Sale Notice, as
applicable.

Given the urgency of the Debtors' need to maximize value for
creditors through timely and efficient Sale Transactions, the
ability to designate Additional Stalking Horse Bidders and offer
such bidders Additional Stalking Horse Bid Protections is justified
and appropriate.

The Bidding Procedures are designed to promote a competitive and
expedient sale process.  If approved, the Bidding Procedures will
allow the Debtors to solicit and identify bids from potential
buyers that constitute the highest or best offer for the Assets on
a schedule consistent with the Milestones, the deadlines under the
Stalking Horse Agreement, and the Debtors' chapter 11 strategy.
Accordingly, the Debtors ask the Court to approve the Bidding
Procedures.

The salient terms of the Bidding Procedures are:

   a. Bid Deadline: June 21, 2017 at 4:00 p.m. (PET)

   b. Credit Bid: Persons or entities holding a perfected security
interest in Assets may seek to Credit Bid their claims for their
collateral.

   c. Landlord Bid: Any bid submitted by a landlord for the
purchase of one of more of such landlord's own Leases may include a
purchase price comprised of a (i) cash component, and (ii) a
non-cash component that represents a "credit" for rental arrears
under such Lease to reduce the cash consideration for the
applicable Lease, but not the Good Faith Deposit required.

   d. Stalking Horse Package: Each bid submitted in connection with
the Stalking Horse Package must (i) be a bid for the entire
Stalking Horse Package; and (ii) exceed the cash purchase price in
the Stalking Horse Bid, plus any applicable Termination Payment; or
(iii) propose an alternative transaction that provides better terms
than the Stalking Horse Bid, taking into account any applicable
Termination Payment.

   e. Bids for Individual Assets or Combinations of Assets: Bidders
may also submit bids for any individual Asset, whether or not such
asset is included in the Stalking Horse Package or any Additional
Stalking Horse Package.  Generally, the Debtors must conclude that
a Partial Bid, when taken together with other Partial Bids,
satisfies the criteria for being a Qualified Bid.

   f. Additional Stalking Horse Packages: Each bid submitted in
connection with an Additional Stalking Horse Package must exceed
the cash purchase price in the applicable Additional Stalking Horse
Bid, plus any applicable Additional Termination Payment, or propose
an alternative transaction that provides better terms than the
Additional Stalking Horse Bid, taking into account any applicable
Additional Termination Payment.

   g. Good Faith Deposit: An amount equal to 10% of the proposed
purchase price

   h. Stalking Horse Credit for Termination Payment: The cash and
other considerations proposed by such Qualified Bidder must exceed
the Stalking Horse Bid by the purchase price contained in the
Stalking Horse Bid, plus the applicable Termination Payment, by at
least the amount of the Minimum Overbid to advance to the next
round of bidding.

   i. Additional Stalking Horse Credit for Additional Termination
Payment: The cash and other considerations proposed by such
Qualified Bidder must exceed the applicable Additional Stalking
Horse Bid by the purchase price contained in the Additional
Stalking Horse Bid, plus the Additional Termination Payment, by at
least the amount of the Minimum Overbid to advance to the next
round of bidding.  The Additional Stalking Horse Bidder will be
entitled to a "credit" in the amount of the applicable Additional
Termination Payment to be counted toward its bid and the
computation of the Minimum Overbid for bidders to advance to the
next round of bidding with respect to the Additional Stalking Horse
Package.

   j. Baseline Bids: Bidding for each Auction Package will commence
at Baseline Bid.

   h. Minimum Overbid: The Debtors will announce at the outset of
the Auction the minimum required increments for successive
Qualified Bids.

          i. Highest or Best Offer: After the first round of
bidding and between each subsequent round of bidding, the Debtors
will announce the bid that they believe to be the highest or best
offer for an Auction Package.

attached to the Motion is available for free at:

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/Central_Grocers_135_Sales.pdf

Consistent with the Milestones and their need to consummate a sales
of their Assets as quickly and efficiently as possible, the Debtors
propose these key dates and deadlines for the sale process:

   a. June 2, 2017, at 10:00 a.m. (PET) - Hearing to consider
approval of Bidding Procedures and entry of Bidding Procedures
Order

   b. June 7, 2017 - Target date for Debtors to provide applicable
Counterparties Adequate Assurance Information with respect to the
Stalking Horse Bidder (and its proposed assignee, if applicable)

   c. June 14, 2017 - Deadline for Debtors to designate Additional
Stalking Horse Bidders

   d. June 16, 2017, at 4:00 p.m. (PET) - Deadline to object to (i)
proposed Sale Transaction involving Assets included in Stalking
Horse Package, (ii) Debtors' proposed Cure Costs, and (iii) the
assumption of and assignment to the Stalking Horse Bidder any (a)
Proposed Assumed Contracts included in the original Stalking Horse
Bid, and (b) any known Designation Rights Contracts identified and
noticed pursuant to the Assumption and Assignment Notice

   e. June 21, 2017, at 4:00 p.m. (PET) - Bid Deadline

   f. June 23, 2017 - Proposed date of Sale Hearing if no other
Qualified Bids received for Stalking Horse Package

   g. June 23, 2017 - Deadline for Debtors to notify Prospective
Bidders of their status as Qualified Bidders

   h. June 26, 2017 at 10:00 a.m. (PET) - Auction to be held at
offices of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP (if necessary)

   i. June 28, 2017 - Target date for Debtors to file with the
Court the Notice of Auction Results and to provide applicable
Counterparties with Adequate Assurance Information for the
Successful Bidders and each of their proposed assignees, if
applicable

   j. July 6, 2017, at 4:00 p.m. (PET) - Deadline to object to (i)
proposed Sale Transactions involving Other Assets, and (ii) the
assumption of and assignment to (a) a Successful Bidder any
Proposed Assumed Contracts or any Contracts or Leases that may
later be designated by a Successful Bidder for assumption and
assignment, and (b) the Stalking Horse Bidder any additional
Proposed Assumed Contracts added to the Stalking Horse Bid
ultimately deemed a Successful Bid at the Auction and any
applicable known Designation Rights Contracts

   k. July 10, 2017 - Proposed date of Sale Hearing to consider
approval of Sale Transactions and entry of Sale Orders

In connection with a Sale Transaction, the Debtors may ask to
assume and assign to the Successful Bidders certain Contracts and
Leases.  Any Counterparty who wishes to object to the assumption,
assignment, or potential designation of their Contract or Lease,
must file on June 16, 2017, at 4:00 p.m. (PET).  Any assumption of
Proposed Assumed Contracts is an exercise of the Debtors' sound
business judgment because the transfer of such Contracts and Leases
is necessary to their ability to obtain the best value for their
Assets, should be approved.

The Debtors expect that the Prepetition Secured Lenders that have
liens on substantially all of the Assets will consent to such sale.
Further, those parties with junior or prior liens can be compelled
to accept a money satisfaction of their interests, and such liens
will attach to the proceeds of the sale in their order of priority.


The Debtors say that a strong business justification exists for the
sale of the Debtors' Assets.  An orderly but expeditious sale of
the Assets is critical to both preserving and realizing the
Company's going concern value and maximizing recoveries for their
economic stakeholders.  Moreover, the timely consummation of the
proposed Sale Transactions is required under the express terms of
the DIP Credit Agreement and the Stalking Horse Agreement.
Accordingly, the Debtors ask the Court to approve the relief
sought.

Accordingly, the Debtors ask that the Court (a) authorizes (i) the
sale of the Assets free and clear of any liens, claims, interests,
and encumbrances; (ii) the Bidding Procedures; (iii) the Stalking
Horse Bid Protections; and (iv) the Debtors to designate one or
more Additional Stalking Horse Bidder and, each such bidder's bid,
an Additional Stalking Horse Package and an Additional Stalking
Horse Bid Protections; (b) schedules (i) an auction of the Assets
to be held on June 26, 2017; and (ii) Sale Hearings to consider
approval of the proposed Sale Transactions; (c) authorizes and
approves (i) the Sale Notice; and (ii) notice to Contracts and
Leases regarding the Debtors' potential assumption and assignment
of their Contracts or Leases and of their calculation of the Cure
Costs; (d) authorizes and approves Assumption and Assignment
Procedures; and (e) grants related relief.

The Debtors ask that each Sale Order and any order authorizing the
assumption or assumption and assignment of a Proposed Assumed
Contract in connection with a Sale Transaction be effective
immediately upon entry and that the 14-day stay imposed by
Bankruptcy Rules 6004(h) and 6006(d) be waived.

CHINA FISHERY: Maybank, et al., Object to Exclusivity Extension
---------------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reported that multiple parties -- including
Malayan Banking Berhad (Maybank), Hong Kong Branch;
CooperatieveRabobank, DBS Bank (Hong Kong), Standard Chartered Bank
(Hong Kong), the club lender parties; Bank of America and the
senior noteholder committee -- filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
separate objections to China Fishery Group's motion for an
exclusivity extension. Maybank asserts, "The Debtors' creditors
continue to have legitimate cause for concern regarding the Ng
family's ability to exercise sound business judgment and provide
the expertise and oversight that creditors and other interest
holders should be able reasonably to expect of a chapter 11 debtor.
These causes for concern arise from a number of aspects, which
Maybank noted at the outset of these Cases, including among others:
(i) the existence of questionable prepetition intercompany and
third party transactions that have yet to be addressed by the
Debtors or their professionals, (ii) the dismissal and resignation
of independent fiduciaries that had been in place with the
agreement of the Debtors prior to the commencement of these Cases,
and (iii) the utter lack of transparency and ordinary course
reporting from the Debtors and their non-Debtor affiliates while
under the control of the Ng family, including the inability or
unwillingness to prepare audits. Notwithstanding the appointment of
a Chapter 11 trustee for CFG Peru (the 'Chapter 11 Trustee') and
the Moving Debtors' repeated promise of a forensic report allegedly
being prepared by RSM Corporate Advisory (Hong Kong) ('RSM
Report'), ten months into these Cases, none of these concerns have
been addressed in any meaningful way and Maybank's requests for
information and explanation in relation to ongoing concerns have
been met with little to no response. The Ng family has failed to
take advantage of the precious opportunity afforded them during the
first ten months of these Cases to take steps to repair the damaged
relationships with Maybank and many of their other lenders. They
failed to take even a first step and time has now run out."

CHINA INFORMATION TECH: UHY LLP Raises Going Concern Doubt
----------------------------------------------------------
China Information Technology, Inc., filed with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission its annual report on Form 20-F, disclosing
a net loss of $18.52 million on $10.19 million of total revenue for

million on $10.28 million of total revenue for the year ended

CLOUD CRANE: S&P Affirms 'B' CCR; Outlook Stable
------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B' corporate credit rating on
Cloud Crane LLC.  The outlook is stable.

Cloud Crane announced its intention to issue $75 million of
incremental second-lien notes due in 2024 to fund its previously
announced acquisition of Coast Crane.

"At the same time, we affirmed our 'B' issue-level rating on the
company's second-priority notes due in 2024 and revised our
recovery rating to '4' from '3' to reflect the increase in the
company's debt from the incremental notes.  The '4' recovery rating
reflects our expectation for average recovery (30%-50%; rounded
estimate: 45%) in the event of a payment default," said S&P Global
Ratings credit analyst Tyrell Peebles.

The stable outlook on Cloud Crane reflects S&P's expectation that
the company will benefit from modest growth in U.S. nonresidential
construction spending and relative stabilization in its power and
energy end markets in 2017.  As a result, S&P expects the company
will improve its total debt to EBITDA to the low- to mid-5x range
and maintain FFO to total debt around 12% over the next 12-18
months.  In addition, S&P expects the company to generate minimal
FOCF given its expectation of continued investment in its equipment
fleet.

S&P could lower its rating on Cloud Crane over the next 12-18
months if significant deterioration in end markets results in
15%-20% revenue declines and/or margins compression to the low-20%
area on a sustained basis.  S&P could also lower its rating if the
company's capital spending and acquisition activities are more
aggressive than anticipated, leading to adjusted debt to EBITDA
above 6x on a sustained basis.

S&P could raise its rating on Cloud Crane by one notch if the
company's long-term competitiveness remains good and S&P forecasts
that its credit measures will improve.  Specifically, if S&P
expects that Cloud Crane's total debt to EBITDA will fall to around
4x, its FFO to debt will increase to more than 20%, and its FOCF to
debt will rise to more than 5% on a sustained basis -- and S&P
believes that the company's financial policies will support these
credit measures -- S&P could raise the rating.


COMBIMATRIX CORP: Reports Q1 2017 Financial and Operating Results
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CombiMatrix Corporation, a family health molecular diagnostics
company specializing in DNA-based reproductive health and pediatric
testing services, announced financial results for the three months
ended March 31, 2017, and provides a business update.

"We are delighted to be reporting another quarter of exceptional
financial and operational performance," said Mark McDonough,
CombiMatrix president and CEO.  "Revenues increased 27%
year-over-year to $3.8 million, driven by a 32% increase in our
reproductive health segment.  Gross margin on diagnostic services
improved to 59.9% from 51.6% a year ago, cash collections reached a
record $3.4 million, and net loss decreased to $518,000, a nearly
$1 million improvement from the prior year.  We believe that we are
tracking very well toward reaching our goal of positive cash flows
from operations by the fourth quarter of 2017.

"Since complementing our reproductive health offering with in vitro
fertilization testing in early 2015, we have reported record
revenues for our reproductive health segment in each consecutive
quarter," he added.  "Over the past several years we have
consistently delivered on our strategic objectives.  Our many
accomplishments include upgrading the talent within our sales
organization, introducing new products, providing clinical
validation for our testing that supports physician adoption and
payor reimbursement, and increasing covered lives under payor
contracts.  Our continuous improvement in billing and collections
processes coupled with our focus on delivering high-reimbursed and
self-paid diagnostic tests have resulted in record cash
collections.  This tight execution on virtually every aspect of our
business plan is resulting in quarter after quarter of improvements
in key metrics, putting us on what we believe is a path toward
sustained profitability."

Total revenues for the first quarter of 2017 increased 27% to $3.8
million from $3.0 million for the first quarter of 2016.  The
increase in the 2017 quarter was driven by higher test volumes
across all testing segments and improved reimbursement resulting in
higher average revenue per test across all segments. Reproductive
health diagnostic test revenues, which include prenatal,
miscarriage analysis and PGS testing, increased 32% to $2.9 million
while testing volumes increased 15% to 1,642.

Total operating expenses were $4.3 million for the first quarter of
2017 compared with $4.4 million for the prior-year comparable
period.  The decrease was due primarily to lower sales and
marketing expenses related to optimized headcount in the field,
partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses
associated primarily with increased management bonus accruals. Cost
of services increased due to higher test volumes.  Gross margin
improved to 59.9% for the first quarter of 2017 from 51.6% in the
prior-year comparable period.

The net loss attributable to common stockholders for the first
quarter of 2017 was $518,000, or $0.19 per share.  This compares
with a net loss attributable to common stockholders for the first
quarter of 2016 of $3.1 million, or $3.63 per share, which
reflected one-time, non-cash charges of $1.9 million related to
deemed dividends from the issuance of Series F convertible
preferred stock and warrants in the $8.0 million public offering
that closed in March 2016.  This increase was partially offset by
the reversal of the $890,000 Series E deemed dividend recognized in
2015 from the repurchase of those securities upon closing of a
public offering, partially reduced by the $656,000 deemed dividend
paid to the Series E investors in February 2016.

The Company reported $3.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investments as of March 31, 2017, compared with $3.7
million as of Dec. 31, 2016.  The Company used $495,000 in cash to
fund operating activities during the first quarter of 2017,
compared with $1.7 million to fund operating activities during the
first quarter of 2016.  The significant decrease in cash used to
fund operating activities in the first quarter of 2017 resulted
primarily from improved cash reimbursement of $3.4 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2017, compared with $2.5 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2016.

for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015.


CONCENTRA INC: S&P Affirms 'B+' CCR & Revises Outlook to Stable
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B+' corporate credit rating and
issue-level rating on Concentra Inc. and revised the outlook to
stable from negative.

"The outlook revision on Concentra is in conjunction with our
outlook revision to stable on Concentra's parent company, Select
Medical," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Elan Nat.

This action follows Select's recent success in mitigating the
negative impact of the new reimbursement environment that went into
effect in 2016, when reimbursement of LTAC services at the
attractive LTAC-specific rate narrowed to patients meeting more
stringent criteria.  S&P is more certain that Select can maintain
stable EBITDA margins of about 17%, along with healthy free cash
flow, which results in adjusted debt leverage declining below 5x in
2017 and generally remaining between 4x-5x.

S&P believes that Concentra is strategically important to the
group.  While Concentra's debt facilities are nonrecourse to
Select, S&P believes that Select's management will support
Concentra under most circumstances because Concentra complements
Select's existing outpatient rehabilitation business, especially
following Select's early 2016 acquisition of Physiotherapy
Associates; Concentra diversifies Select away from the LTAC sector,
which has come under pressure and reduces Select's exposure to
Medicare; and because Select consolidates Concentra into its
financial statements.  The combined group credit profile of Select
and Concentra is 'B+'.

The stable outlook on Concentra is based on S&P's expectations for
Concentra and reflects the outlook on parent company, Select
Medical Corp.  S&P expects both the parent and Concentra to
generate stable EBITDA margins and good free cash flow and maintain
adjusted debt leverage between 4x-5x over the next two years.

S&P could lower the rating if operating weakness at Select or
Concentra causes free cash flow generation to become materially
impaired in the near term.  This could occur if Select's EBITDA
margins contract by about 260 basis points, possibly stemming from
weaker-than-expected patient volume and intensifying reimbursement
pressure, coupled with increased labor costs and other operating
expenses, or if Select were to allocate free cash flow primarily
for shareholder returns.  Alternatively, S&P could lower its rating
on Concentra if S&P sees meaningful risk that its leverage will
remain above 5x for a sustained period.  This could occur if
Concentra experiences increasing competition, a cyclical downturn,
or reimbursement pressure, such that EBITDA generation declines by
about 35%.

While unlikely over the next year, S&P could raise its rating on
Concentra if S&P gains confidence that both Concentra and the
consolidated entity will maintain leverage below 4x on a sustained
basis.


COSI INC: Plan Takes Effect, Exits Chapter 11 Bankruptcy

Cosi, Inc., the fast-casual restaurant company disclosed that its

CRYOPORT INC: Incurs $1.78 Million Net Loss in First Quarter
------------------------------------------------------------
Cryoport, Inc., filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing a net loss of $1.78
million on $2.71 million of revenues for the three months ended
March 31, 2017, compared to a net loss of $2.71 million on $1.55
million of revenues for the same period in 2015.

As of March 31, 2017, Cryoport had $18.90 million in total assets,
$2.83 million in total liabilities and $16.06 million in total
stockholders' equity.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$14.5 million and working capital of $13.8 million.  Historically,
the Company has financed its operations primarily through sales of
its debt and equity securities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company used
$829,900 of cash for operations primarily as a result of the net
loss of $1.8 million offset by non-cash expenses of $925,400
primarily comprised of depreciation and amortization, stock-based
compensation expense, and loss on disposal of fixed assets.  Also
contributing to the cash impact of our net operating loss
(excluding non-cash items) was an increase in accounts receivable
of $272,400 as a result of an increase in sales offset by an
increase in accounts payable and other accrued expenses and accrued
compensation of $324,100.  

Net cash used in investing activities of $641,300 during the three
months ended March 31, 2017, was primarily due to the purchase of
Cryoport Express CXVC1 Shippers, Smart Pak IITM Condition
Monitoring Systems and computer equipment as well as legal expenses
incurred for trademark applications.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $11.5 million
during the three months ended March 31, 2017, and resulted from net
proceeds from the common stock offering, offset by the repayment of
related party notes of $92,400.

The Company's management believes that, based on its current plans
and assumptions, the current cash on hand, together with projected
cash flows, will satisfy the Company's operational and capital for
at least the next twelve months.  The Company's management
recognizes that the Company may need to obtain additional capital
to fund its operations until sustained profitable operations are
achieved.  Additional funding plans may include obtaining
additional capital through equity and/or debt funding sources.  No
assurance can be given that additional capital, if needed, will be
available when required or upon terms acceptable to the Company.

                      About Cryoport

Lake Forest, Calif.-based CryoPort, Inc. (OTC BB: CYRX) provides
comprehensive solutions for frozen cold chain logistics, primarily
in the life science industries.  Its solutions afford new and
reliable alternatives to currently existing products and services
utilized for bio-pharmaceuticals and biologics, including in-vitro
fertilization, cell lines, vaccines, tissue and other commodities
requiring a reliable frozen solution.

Cryoport reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of
$15.05 million on $5.88 million of revenues for the year ended
March 31, 2016, compared to a net loss attributable to common
stockholders of $12.2 million on $3.93 million of revenues for the
year ended March 31, 2015.

KMJ Corbin & Company LLP, in Costa Mesa, California, issued a
"going concern" qualification on the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended March 31, 2016, citing that
the Company has recurring operating losses from inception and has
used substantial amounts of working capital in its operations.
Although the Company has cash and cash equivalents of $2.8 million
at March 31, 2016, management has estimated that cash on hand will
only be sufficient to allow the Company to continue its operations
through the third quarter of fiscal 2017.  These matters raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern, the auditors said.


DEAN FOODS: S&P Raises CCR to 'BB; Outlook Stable
-------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings raised the corporate credit rating on
Dallas-based Dean Foods Co. to 'BB' from 'BB-'.  The outlook is
stable.

At the same time, S&P raised the issue-level rating on their
$450 million revolving facility to 'BBB-' from 'BB+'.  The recovery
rating remains '1', indicating S&P's expectation for a very high
(90%-100%; rounded estimate: 95%) recovery in the event of payment
default.

S&P also raised the issue-level rating on the $700 million
unsecured notes to 'BB' from 'BB-'.  The recovery rating remains
'3', indicating S&P's expectation for a meaningful recovery
(50%-70%; rounded estimate: 60%) in the event of payment default.

S&P also raised the issue level rating on legacy Dean Foods Co.
$150 million senior unsecured debt to 'B+' from 'B'.  The recovery
rating remains '6', indicating S&P's expectation for a negligible
(0%-10%; rounded estimate: 0%) recovery in the event of payment
default.

As of March 31, 2017, Dean Foods had approximately $891.6 million
of reported debt outstanding.

"The upgrade reflects the company's sustained leverage at fairly
moderate levels as well as our opinion that the company has taken
meaningful steps (primarily reducing fixed costs) to reduce its
balance sheet exposure to inflationary milk price cycles," said S&P
Global Ratings credit analyst Francis Cusimano.  Dean Foods has
increased EBITDA twofold from the prior milk inflation cycle in
2014, resulting in debt to EBITDA improving to 2.7x as of
March 31, 2017, from 4.7x at the prior cyclical peak in 2014.  In
addition, the company has implemented various cost cutting
initiatives, including plant rationalizations and distribution
efficiencies that delivered $80 million in annual savings in 2016
growing to $100 million in annual savings expected in 2017.
Meanwhile, the company is improving--albeit only modestly--its
product mix away from commodity fluid milk with branded products
like Dairy Pure (an extended-shelf-life national brand), Tru-Moo
flavored chocolate milk and Friendly's branded ice cream.  This,
coupled with pricing actions taken in the second quarter, should
allow the company to maintain leverage well below 3x during the
current inflationary milk cycle, during which S&P projects 2017
milk prices will peak near $17 compared with last-year levels of
about $16.40.  Moreover, S&P estimates the company could maintain
peak leverage near 3x on temporary basis in more severe cycles,
during which peak-to-trough EBITDA could decline by as much as $100
million.  S&P believes this diminished degree of leverage
sensitivity to milk prices warrants an upgrade.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's belief that while milk prices are
expected to remain closer to $17 per cwt in 2017, the company's
leaner cost structure and recent pricing actions should mute the
impact of higher milk costs, such that credit measures should stay
well within S&P's anticipated ranges for the ratings. This includes
a modest erosion in debt to EBITDA to about 2.6x in fiscal 2017,
likely improving thereafter as milk cost inflation abates.

S&P could lower the ratings if earnings volatility is higher than
expected, resulting in leverage of well over 3x on a sustained
basis.  This could occur if Class One milk prices S&P was to again
return to well over $20 per hundredweight (cwt) without enough
corresponding pricing to offset the inflation.  S&P could also
consider a downgrade if the company makes a large debt-financed
acquisition causing leverage to be sustained above 3x.

S&P could consider an upgrade if the company was to significantly
diversify its product offerings away from milk-based products,
thereby lowering its exposure to milk price volatility, or
expanding its operations to significantly diversify its geographic
presence.  While unlikely over the next 12 months due to the
company's strategy of pursuing bolt-on acquisitions and the
inflationary milk environment, S&P could also consider an upgrade
if the company were to sustain debt to EBITDA below 1.5x and commit
to maintaining leverage in that range.


DEWEY & LEBOEUF: Steven DiCarmine's Role in Fraud Minimal
---------------------------------------------------------
Jody Godoy, writing for Bankruptcy Law360, reports that prosecutors
called at the outset of the trial former Dewey & LeBoeuf Executive
Director Steven DiCarmine's role in the alleged fraud minimal.

                    About Dewey & LeBoeuf

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

FTI Consulting, Inc., was appointed secured lender trustee for the
Secured Lender Trust.  Alan Jacobs of AMJ Advisors LLC, was named
Dewey's liquidation trustee.  Scott E. Ratner, Esq., Frank A.
Oswald, Esq., David A. Paul, Esq., Steven S. Flores, Esq., at
Togut, Segal & Segal LLP, serve as counsel to the Liquidation
Trustee.

Dewey's liquidating Chapter 11 plan was approved by the bankruptcy
court in February 2013 and implemented in March.  The plan created
a trust to collect and distribute remaining assets.  The firm
estimated that midpoint recoveries for secured and unsecured
creditors under the plan would be 58.4 percent and 9.1%,
respectively.


DEXTERA SURGICAL: Reports 2017 Third Quarter Financial Results
--------------------------------------------------------------
Dextera Surgical Inc. announced financial results for its fiscal
third quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2017.  Management
held a conference call on May 4, 2017, to discuss financial results
and provide an update on the Company's business.

"Product sales for the third quarter were approximately $1 million,
favorably impacted by the initiation of sales in Spain as well as
an uptick in our cardiac products," said Julian Nikolchev,
president and CEO of Dextera Surgical Inc.  "Looking ahead, we see
increasing demand for the MicroCutter in both Europe and the United
States."

Recent Highlights and Accomplishments:

   * Dextera Surgical and B. Braun Surgical S.A. held a video-
     assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) symposium for leading
     thoracic surgeons in Spain detailing the use and benefits of
     the MicroCutter 5/80 with complementary VATS instrumentation
     from B. Braun Surgical S.A. Forty-eight surgeons from 24
     institutions performing VATS in Spain attended the symposium,
     which included a lecture from Shanda Blackmon, M.D., M.P.H,
     of the Mayo Clinic, William Walker, F.R.C.S., of the Royal
     Infirmary of Edinburgh and Raul Embun, M.D., Ph.D., of the
     Universitario Miguel Servet presenting techniques for
     including the MicroCutter in VATS procedures.

   * Marco Nardini, M.D., from James Cook University Hospital in
     Middlesbrough, UK, presented the latest data on the results
     of 82 patients undergoing Microlobectomy.  The data
     demonstrated that for Microlobectomy procedures, the median
     hospital stay is reduced by at least two days when compared
     to traditional open lobectomy procedures, with over 20
     percent of patients going home the day after surgery.

     For the 82 patients undergoing a Microlobectomy, the median
     length of hospital stay was three days, with 17 patients
    (20.7%) discharged the day after surgery and an additional 14
     patients (17%) discharged two days after surgery.  Data were
     presented at the Scandinavian Society for Research in
     Cardiothoracic Surgery 2017 held in Geilo, Norway.

   * Continued the co-development program with Intuitive Surgical
     to develop a surgical stapler and cartridge for use with
     Intuitive's da Vinci Surgical System.

   * Enrolled additional patients and added new sites for the
     MicroCutter-Assisted Thoracic Surgery Hemostasis (MATCH)
     post-market surveillance registry to evaluate the hemostasis
     and ease-of-use for the MicroCutter 5/80.  This is a
     prospective, open-label, multi-center registry.  Dextera
     Surgical expects to enroll up to 120 patients requiring
     surgical stapling during a lobectomy or segmentectomy at
     leading centers in the U.S. and Europe.

Total product sales were approximately $1.0 million for the fiscal
2017 third quarter compared with $0.5 million for the same quarter
of fiscal 2016.  MicroCutter sales were approximately $516,000 in
the fiscal 2017 third quarter compared to $19,000 in the comparable
quarter last year and $284,000 in the second quarter of this fiscal
year, demonstrating positive uptake and in line with the forecast
in Dextera's corporate update press release on
Jan. 5, 2017.  Total revenue was approximately $1.1 million for the
fiscal 2017 third quarter compared with approximately $1.9 million
for the fiscal 2016 third quarter.  Total revenue for the third
quarter of fiscal 2016 included approximately $1.4 million in
license revenue from the extension of Dextera Surgical's agreement
with Intuitive Surgical.

Total operating costs and expenses for the fiscal 2017 third
quarter were $5.5 million, compared with $4.8 million for the same
period of fiscal 2016.  Cost of product sales was approximately
$1.3 million compared with $0.9 million for the same period of
fiscal 2016. Research and development expenses were $2.0 million
for the fiscal 2017 third quarter, compared with $1.6 million for
the fiscal 2016 third quarter.  Selling, general and administrative
expenses were $2.1 million for the fiscal 2017 third quarter,
compared with $2.3 million for the fiscal 2016 third quarter.

The net loss for the fiscal 2017 third quarter was approximately
$4.5 million, or $0.50 per share, compared with a net loss of
approximately $3.0 million, or $0.34 per share, for the fiscal 2016
third quarter.

Cash, cash equivalents and investments, as of March 31, 2017, were
approximately $2.5 million, compared with approximately $5.8
million at Dec. 31, 2016.  As of March 31, 2017, there were
approximately 8.9 million shares of common stock outstanding and
191,474 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock
outstanding.

For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 ending June 30, 2017, Dextera
expects to report MicroCutter product sales of $600,000 to
$700,000, as opposed to previous guidance of $700,000 to $800,000.
The revised guidance is due to a backorder on the blue reload
cartridge.  Total MicroCutter product sales for fiscal 2017 are
expected to be $1.4 million to $1.5 million

Milestones

Management's key objectives in the near term:

   * Secure the capital resources necessary to maximize the
     opportunity the company has in its markets;
   
   * Execute a strategic partnership by the end of the first
     quarter of the next fiscal year;

   * Optimize supply chain and establish production capacity of
     120 MicroCutters per week by the end of the fiscal year;
   
   * Complete enrollment of patients in the MATCH Registry Trial
     before the end of the third quarter of calendar 2017;
   
   * Expand MicroCutter indication to include liver in the U.S. by

     the end of calendar year 2017;
   
   * Demonstrate success in Spain with the B. Braun collaboration
     throughout calendar 2017; and

   * The Company updated its Utica Dry Gas type curve assumptions,

     resulting in an increase in EUR of approximately 13% to
     approximately 2.2 Bcf per 1,000 foot of lateral based on the
     results of extended flow testing on its completed Dry Gas
     Utica Shale wells using the Company's "Gen3" completion
     design, which is expected to generate a before tax internal
     rate of return of approximately 70% at today's forward
     natural gas strip pricing.

   * The Company successfully drilled its newest record setting
    "Super-Lateral" well, the Great Scott 3H, with a total
     measured depth of 27,400 feet and completable lateral
     extension of 19,300 feet in less than 17 days from spud to TD
     in the Company's Utica Shale Condensate area.

   * The Company completed drilling its first of two planned
     Marcellus Shale Condensate wells with a completable lateral
     extension of 10,000 feet.

   * The Company finished completions operations on a seven well
     Dry Gas Utica pad testing several innovative "Gen4"
     completion techniques, including testing increased proppant
     levels, diversion chemicals and engineered frack stages.

   * The Company issued second quarter 2017 production and expense
     guidance and updated its full year production and expense
     guidance, resulting in an increase in its expected average
     daily production guidance range for 2017 to between 315 and
     320 MMcfe per day and a reduction in its 2017 per unit
     operating expenses for 2017 to between $1.40 and $1.50 per
     Mcfe.

Benjamin W. Hulburt, chairman, president and CEO, commented on the
Company's first quarter 2017 results, "This was another tremendous
quarter for us as we continued our track record of exceeding
production expectations, while expanding our operating margin
by keeping our per unit operating expenses and our general &
administrative expenses low.  This now marks the tenth consecutive
reporting period in which the Company has met or exceeded its
production and operating expense guidance, continuing our streak
representing every single reporting period since our initial public
offering in June of 2014.

"We have increased our Utica Dry Gas type curve expectations as a
result of the outperformance we have seen to date on our recent Dry
Gas type curve area wells.  These wells utilized our "Gen3"
completion design and managed pressure drawdown methodology.  The
Utica Dry Gas type curve area EUR has increased to 2.2 Bcfe per
1,000 foot of lateral or by approximately 13%.  The "Gen3" Dry Gas
wells we have tested to date are projected to exceed this new type
curve EUR, as they are on the eastern side of our Utica Shale Dry
Gas acreage, while our Utica Shale Dry Gas type curve is intended
to represent the mid-point of expected results rather than the
highest possible recovery we believe is possible.  However, as
excited as we are with these results, we continue to strive to be a
leader in innovation in our region.  As such, we have commenced a
series of trials on what may become our "Gen4" completion design.
These approaches include testing combinations of tighter stages,
higher proppant intensity, engineered stage lengths and the use of
diversion chemicals, all of which were tested on a recently
completed seven well Dry Gas Utica pad that is expected to begin
turning to sales at the end of the second quarter. Because of the
need to take several producing wells offline due to offsetting
completion activities and the timing of the turn to sales of these
new "Gen4" wells at the very end of the second quarter, we expect
second quarter production to be down relative to the first and to
achieve very strong production growth as we move into the third and
fourth quarters.  This was part of our annual plan and as you can
see from our updated guidance, we now expect to achieve full year
production levels that are in excess of our previously issued
guidance.

"Our second operated rig commenced drilling at the end of the first
quarter 2017 and we now have a rig again focused on our Utica
Condensate type curve area as our team continues to demonstrate its
operational excellence in the Appalachian basin.  In the Utica
Condensate area, I am extremely happy to announce that we
successfully drilled what we believe is the world's longest onshore
lateral ever drilled with a total measured depth of 27,400 feet and
completable lateral extension of 19,300 feet, almost 1,000 feet
longer than the previous record held by our Purple Hayes well.
Remarkably, our team drilled this well in less than 17 days from
spud to TD.  We are currently drilling a direct offset to this well
with a similar planned lateral extension and expect to begin
completions on these exciting wells late in the third quarter of
this year.  Additionally, we have drilled the first of two planned
Marcellus Condensate wells with a completable lateral extension of
10,000 feet and are currently drilling the second, along with three
Utica Dry Gas wells on the same pad. Considering the catalysts we
discussed at our analyst day early in the year, we are tracking at
or better than planned and remain excited for continued operational
improvement and value enhancements from our assets."

Revenue for the first quarter of 2017 totaled $101.9 million,
compared to $49.6 million for the first quarter of 2016.  Adjusted
Revenue, which includes the impact of cash settled derivatives and
excludes brokered natural gas and marketing revenue, totaled $95.4
million for the first quarter of 2017 compared to $58.9 million for
the first quarter of 2016.  Net Income for the first quarter of
2017 was $26.8 million, or $0.10 per share compared to a net loss
of $45.5 million or $0.20 per share for the first quarter of 2016.
Adjusted Net Income2 for the first quarter of 2017 was $4.8
million, or $0.02 per share.  Adjusted EBITDAX2 was $50.2 million
for the first quarter of 2017.

First quarter 2017 capital expenditures were $78.7 million.  These
expenditures included $55.0 million for drilling and completions,
$2.5 million for midstream expenditures, $21.0 million for
land-related expenditures, and $0.2 million for corporate-related
expenditures.

During the first quarter 2017, the Company drilled 4 gross (3.9
net) operated Utica Shale wells, all of which were in the Dry Gas
type curve area.  In addition, the Company completed 7 gross (7.0
net) wells and turned to sales 5 gross (4.7 net) wells.  

As of March 31, 2017, the Company's liquidity was $301.9 million,
consisting of $160.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and
$141.4 million in available borrowing capacity under the Company's
revolving credit facility (after giving effect to outstanding
letters of credit issued by the Company of $33.6 million).

As previously announced, the Company completed its borrowing base
redetermination of its revolving credit facility, which resulted in
an increase in its borrowing base from $125 million to $175
million, and extended the maturity of its revolving credit facility
to January 2020.  The Company remains undrawn on its revolving
credit facility, other than for letters of credit.

Matthew R. DeNezza, executive vice president and chief financial
officer, commented, "As we continue to increase our activity levels
with the addition of the second operated rig, we remain focused on
our liquidity and balance sheet strength.  At quarter end, our
liquidity was approximately $302 million, and included a cash
position of approximately $161 million and undrawn revolver
availability of approximately $141 million.  From a gas marketing
perspective, the Company has continued to work to maximize realized
pricing through our access to both in and out of basin markets, and
we are pleased to see the improvement in Appalachian basis
differentials which we had predicted would occur as new
transportation capacity is now coming on line."

                    About Eclipse Resources

Eclipse Resources Corporation is an independent exploration and
production company engaged in the acquisition and development of
oil and natural gas properties in the Appalachian Basin.  As of
Dec. 31, 2015, the Company had assembled an acreage position
approximating 220,000 net acres in Eastern Ohio.

Eclipse Resources reported a net loss of $203.80 million on $235.03
million of total revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2016,
compared to a net loss of $971.4 million on $255.3 million of total
revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015.  

The Company's balance sheet at Dec. 31, 2016, showed $1.190 billion
in total assets, $651.1 million in total liabilities and $546.7
million in total stockholders' equity.

                          *    *    *

As reported by the TCR on July 11, 2016, Moody's Investors Service
upgraded Eclipse Resources' Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to 'Caa1'
from 'Caa2' and Probability of Default Rating to 'Caa1-PD' from
'Caa2-PD'.  "The upgrade to Caa1 reflects Eclipse's improved
liquidity and good visibility to fund a more robust drilling
program through 2017 than we had previously anticipated, largely
the result of $123 million in proceeds raised from its equity
issuance.  With considerable cash balances and improving cash
margins on its production, Eclipse is poised to return to a
production growth trajectory that should allow for meaningful
deleveraging," noted John Thieroff, Moody's VP-Senior Analyst.

In June 2016, S&P Global Ratings raised its corporate credit rating
on State College, Pa.-based Eclipse Resources Inc. to 'CCC+' from
'CC'.  "The rating action reflects our opinion that Eclipse is
unlikely to pursue further distressed debt transactions given the
lack of bondholders' appetite for a distressed exchange--as
demonstrated by the early termination of the company's exchange
offer in February--and the increase in its bond price over the past
three months," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Christine
Besset.

EMERALD GRANDE: Needs More Time to Stabilize Finances, File Plan
----------------------------------------------------------------
Emerald Grande, LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of West Virginia to extend its exclusive periods for
filing a plan of reorganization by 120 days from May 11, 2017, and
for gaining acceptance of a plan of reorganization by 180 days from
May 11, 2017.

The Debtor owns and operates two hotel properties, the La Quinta
Inn adjacent to the Elkview Crossings Shopping Mall, Elkview, West
Virginia and the La Quinta Inn adjacent to the Merchant's Walk
Shopping Mall, Summersville, West Virginia. The Debtor also owns a
real estate development in the Kanawha Landing Shopping Center
Complex along MacCorkle Ave., South East and 57th Street, in
Charleston, West Virginia.

The Debtor claims that after filing its bankruptcy petition, the
Debtor determined that it had not been billing its tenants at the
Charleston Property, for actual amounts of real estate taxes,
insurance and common area maintenance as required under its leases.


Accordingly, on April 17, 2017, the Debtor transmitted invoices to
the tenants of the Charleston Property, after consultation with
First Bank, for additional rent as follows: Verizon, $15,495; La
Carreta, $63,713; and Fujiyama, $99,403. As of May 10, the Debtor
contends that the arrangements with the tenants of the Charleston
Property for payment of the additional rent are still incomplete.

In addition to the unresolved contingency relating to additional
rent at the Charleston Property, the Debtor anticipates that an
application will be filed by Tara Retail Group, LLC for an
administrative expense for contribution towards the cost of
rebuilding the bridge to the Crossings Mall, which will also
restore access to Debtor’s La Quinta Inn in Elkview, West
Virginia.

Tara Retail Group, LLC, owns the Elkview Crossings Shopping Mall
property, adjacent to the Elkview Hotel. Though not technically an
affiliate of Debtor, Tara and Debtor are both controlled by William
A. Abruzzino.

The Debtor relates that on June 23, 2016, thunderstorms brought
torrential rain to much of West Virginia, resulting in
unprecedented flooding in Kanawha County. The flood waters of
Little Sandy Creek, a tributary of the Elk River, washed away the
culvert and bridge connecting the Elkview Hotel and the adjacent
Elkview Crossings Shopping Mall, to the public road. Since this
flood, there has been no suitable public access to Elkview Hotel
and the hotel has not operated and is not generating any income.

Thus, the Debtor tells the Court that although progress has been
made, additional time is needed in order for the Debtor to
formulate a plan of reorganization, to allow for arrangements to be
made for collection of additional rents from the tenants of the
Charleston Property, and for resolution of the question of how much
Debtor should contribute to the cost of rebuilding the bridge at
the Crossings Mall.

The Debtor asserts that the lack of income from the Elkview Hotel
placed significant stress on the Debtor's overall financial
performance, and restoration of access to the Elkview Hotel is
still sometime away. However, the Debtor anticipates that it will
be able to propose a plan of reorganization within a reasonable
time, once access is restored and the Elkview Hotel can resume
normal operations.

                   About Emerald Grande

Emerald Grande, LLC, owns and operates two hotel properties, the La
Quinta Inn and Suites adjacent to the Elkview Crossings Shopping
Mall, Elkview, West Virginia and the La Quinta Inn and Suites
adjacent to the Merchants Walk Shopping Mall, Summersville, West
Virginia.  It also owns a real estate development in Charleston
(Kanawha City), West Virginia.

Emerald Grande filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. N.D. W.Va. Case
No. 17-00021) on Jan. 11, 2017.  The petition was signed by William
A. Abruzzino, managing member. The case is assigned to Judge
Patrick M. Flatley.

The Debtor estimated assets and liabilities at $10 million to $50
million at the time of the filing. The Debtor is represented by
Steven L. Thomas, Esq., at Kay, Casto & Chaney PLLC. The Debtor
employs Woomer, Nistendirk & Associates PLLC as accountants; and
Realcorp, LLC as broker, with Jon Cavendish serving as the listing
agent, to market and sell its property in Kanawha County, West
Virginia.  

The Office of the U.S. Trustee on Feb. 23 disclosed in a court
filing that no official committee of unsecured creditors has been
appointed in the Chapter 11 case of Emerald Grande, LLC.


ENERGIZER HOLDINGS: S&P Revises Outlook to Pos. & Affirms 'BB' CCR
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings revised its outlook on St. Louis, Mo.–based
Energizer Holdings Inc. to positive from stable and affirmed its
'BB' corporate credit rating.

S&P also affirmed its 'BBB-' issue-level rating on the company's
senior secured term loan.  The '1' recovery rating is unchanged,
reflecting S&P's expectation for very high (90%-100%, rounded
estimate 95%) recovery in the event of a payment default.

At the same time, S&P affirmed its 'BB' issue level rating on the
senior unsecured debt.  The '3' recovery rating is unchanged,
reflecting S&P's expectation for meaningful (50% to 70%, rounded
estimate 50%) recovery in the event of a payment default.

Reported debt outstanding as of March 31, 2017, was about $1.06
billion.

"The outlook revision to positive reflects the potential for a
higher rating over the next 12 months if the company maintains
debt-to-EBITDA leverage below 3x, and demonstrates the ability and
willingness to do so over our forecast horizon," said S&P Global
Ratings credit analyst Katherine Heng. Energizer is well-positioned
for maintaining stronger credit metrics, mainly as a result of
gradually improving profitability, declining debt levels, and good
cash flow generation.  Still, the company's financial policy track
record is relatively short, and its future financial risk profile
will be influenced by management's strategic decisions on how much
free cash flow the company chooses to allocate between
acquisitions, debt reduction, and shareholder
distributions.

The positive outlook reflects the potential for a higher rating
over the next 12 months if S&P gains increased confidence that the
company's long-term financial policies support debt to EBITDA
sustained below 3x.  S&P believes Energizer is well-positioned for
maintaining stronger credit metrics, based on S&P's expectations of
gradually improving profitability, declining debt levels, and good
cash flow generation.  S&P believes the company's financial policy
track record is relatively short, however, and that Energizer's
future financial risk profile is influenced by management's
strategic decisions on how much free cash flow the company chooses
to allocate between acquisitions, debt reduction, and unexpected
shareholder distributions.

S&P could revise the outlook to stable if Energizer's
debt-to-EBITDA sustains well above 3x.  This could be the result of
any unanticipated sales and/or operating margin drop, which could
be the result of accelerating category decline for consumer
batteries or operating difficulties that lead to weakening
operating margins.  In addition, given Energizer's untested
financial policies, it may prioritize inorganic growth
opportunities to further diversify its earnings stream or grow
shareholder distributions materially above S&P's current
expectations.


EP MINERALS: S&P Lowers 1st-Lien Debt Rating to 'B' Amid Add-On
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it lowered its issue-level rating on Reno,
Nev.-based specialty minerals miner, processor, and distributor EP
Minerals LLC's first-lien debt to 'B' from 'B+'.  EP Minerals is
obtaining a $62.5 million add-on to its first-lien term loan under
its original agreement.  The recovery rating on the first-lien debt
is '3', which indicates S&P's expectation of meaningful (50%-70%;
rounded estimate: 65%) recovery in the event of a payment default.
The rating on the company's second-lien debt remains 'CCC+'.  The
recovery rating on the second-lien debt remains '6', indicating our
expectation for negligible (0% to 10%; rounded estimate: 0%)
recovery prospects in the event of a payment default.

The corporate credit rating is unchanged at 'B', and the outlook is
stable.

S&P expects that EP Minerals will apply the proceeds toward the
purchase price and associate fees and expenses of BASF's Bleaching
Clay and Mineral Adsorvents business.  It includes a production
site and a clay mine in Mississippi, and the mineral rights
sublease associated with a mine in Arizona.

                         RECOVERY ANALYSIS

Key Analytical Factors

   -- S&P's recovery analysis assumes a capital structure that
      includes a $25 million revolving credit facility due 2019, a

      $176 million first-lien term loan due 2020, a new
      $62.5 million add-on first-lien term loan due 2020, and a
      $70 million second-lien term loan due 2021.

   -- Following a review of the company's recovery profile, S&P
      assigned a '3' recovery rating to EP Minerals' first-lien
      debt--including the revolving facility and the first-lien
      term loans, which indicates S&P's expectation for meaningful

      recovery (50% to 70% range; rounded estimate: 65%) in the
      event of default.

   -- S&P also assigned a '6' recovery rating to the company's
      second-lien term loan, which indicates S&P's expectation for

      negligible (0% to 10% range, rounded estimate: 0%) recovery
      under S&P's default scenario.

   -- Under a default scenario, S&P believes the company would be
      reorganized rather than liquidated because of the scarcity
      value of its assets and position as the global No. 2
      producer of diatomaceous earth.  As such, S&P has valued the

      company based upon an enterprise value to estimate recovery.

      S&P estimates a gross recovery value of approximately
      $185 million, assuming an emergence EBITDA of $37 million
      and an EBITDA multiple of 5x, which is in line with other
      producers in the metals and mining sector.

   -- S&P's recovery analysis assumes that 85% of EP Minerals'
      revolving credit facility would be drawn at default.

Simulated Default and Valuation Assumptions
   -- Simulated year of default: 2020
   -- EBITDA at emergence*: $37 million
   -- Implied enterprise value multiple: 5x
   -- Gross enterprise value: $185 million

Simplified Waterfall
   -- Net enterprise value (after 5% administrative costs):
      $176 million
   -- Domestic (obligor)/foreign (nonobligor) valuation split:
      100%/0%
   -- Estimated net enterprise value available for secured debt:
      $176 million
      --------------------------------
   -- Estimated senior secured claims: $259 million (Revolving
      credit facility: $22 million; term loan B: $237 million)
   -- Senior secured debt recovery rating: 50%-70% (rounded
      estimate: 65%)
   -- Senior secured debt rating: 'B'
      --------------------------------
   -- Estimated second-lien claims: $74 million
   -- Second-lien debt recovery rating: 0%-10% (rounded estimate:
      0%)
   -- Second-lien debt rating: 'CCC+'

* Calculation of EBITDA at emergence: $37 million (assumed interest
and term loan amortization due in default year:
$28 million; minimum capital expenditure assumption: $5 million;
cyclicality adjustment: $4 million).

Note: S&P's estimated claim amounts include approximately six
months' accrued but unpaid interest.

FIRSTENERGY SOLUTIONS: S&P Cuts ICR to 'CCC' on Litigation Outcome
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it lowered its issuer credit rating on
FirstEnergy Solutions Corp. to 'CCC' from 'CCC+'.  The outlook is
negative.  S&P also lowered its issue-level ratings on the
company's unsecured and secured debt to 'CCC' and 'B-',
respectively, from 'CCC+' and 'B'.  The '4' recovery rating on the
unsecured debt reflects S&P's expectation of average (30%-50%;
rounded estimate: 30%) recovery in the event of default.  The '1'
recovery rating on the secured debt reflects S&P's expectation of
very high (90%-100%; rounded estimate: 95%) recovery in the event
of default.

"The negative outlook reflects our expectation that the issuer
could potentially file for bankruptcy within the next 12 months,"
said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Michael Ferguson.

S&P could lower the ratings if the timeline of a possible
restructuring accelerates or if the issuer makes an announcement to
this effect.

S&P could revise the outlook to stable if leverage decreases
sharply or if liquidity improves intermittently.


FOCUS FINANCIAL: S&P Assigns 'B+' ICR; Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it assigned its 'B+' issuer credit rating
on Focus Financial Partners LLC.  The outlook is stable.  S&P also
assigned a 'B+' issue-level rating on the company's proposed
first-lien credit facility (a $755 million first-lien term loan and
a $250 million secured revolving credit facility) and a 'B-'
issue-level rating on the proposed $207 million second-lien term
loan.  The recovery rating on the first-lien facility is '3',
indicating S&P's expectation for meaningful recovery (50%) for
debtholders in the event of payment default, and the recovery
rating on the second-lien term loan is '6', indicating negligible
(0%) recovery prospects.

"Focus is a partnership of independent fiduciary firms that offer
wealth management services primarily in the U.S. through the
registered investment advisor (RIA) channel, said S&P Global
Ratings credit analyst Brian Estiz.  The company offers multiple
services to its partner firms, including marketing and business
development, legal and compliance, talent management, operational
and technological enhancement, and succession planning.  Stone
Point Capital and KKR, two private equity firms, are acquiring a
majority stake in Focus, while Centerbridge, an existing investor,
along with management and partners are rolling over a significant
minority interest in this transaction.

Focus' partner firms are able to retain their style and culture
while offering independent investment services to their clients,
including strategies in active, passive, and manager-of-managers
solutions.  The services offered by partners of Focus are fee-based
fiduciary services rather than commission-based offerings, which
have received significant attention in recent quarters and have
been further supported by the potential impact of the Department of
Labor (DOL) fiduciary rule.  While S&P believes the environment for
traditional active managers remains somewhat challenging in the
next year as a result of pressure from passive strategies, wealth
managers could benefit from the increased adherence to fiduciary
standards.

In S&P's opinion, the company has a short track record in the
market but has been able to add substantial revenue growth over the
past 11 years.  The increase in revenue generation mainly stemmed
from the addition of new partners during the last several years,
including six new partner firms added in 2016.  Since the beginning
of 2017, Focus has added another six partner firms, raising the
number of partner firms to 47.  S&P expects the company to continue
bringing on new partner firms throughout S&P's investment horizon.

The company is concentrated in the U.S., with more than 95% of cash
flow generation originated in the domestic market.  However, Focus
has recently partnered with firms overseas and generates a small
portion of cash flow from Canada, the U.K., and Australia, and it
has a joint venture with a Chinese firm.  The company's cash flow
generation is distributed among almost 50 partner firms, but there
is a significant concentration of earnings coming from the top five
contributors to Focus.

The company's EBITDA margin is lower than the margins of some of
the larger traditional asset managers that S&P rates, although part
of this is explained by its particular business model, which is
impacted by the percentage of earnings acquired in each partner
firm.  The company's largest operating expenses are compensation
and management fees for partner firms, so margins reflect not only
the expenses incurred at the top level but also at the partner
level.  Overall, S&P's adjusted EBITDA margin for Focus at the end
of 2016 was approximately 25%, and we expect margins to remain at a
similar level in 2017.

To finance the acquisition, the company is planning to issue a $755
million first-lien term loan and a $207 million second-lien term
loan, and it will finance the remaining portion with equity
rollovers from management, partners, and Centerbridge.  The company
is also planning to issue a $250 million secured revolving
facility, but S&P do not expect any funds drawn at the close of the
transaction.  In S&P's opinion, the company will be highly
leveraged following the proposed debt issuances.  S&P estimates
leverage will be slightly above 6.5x at the end of 2017, and S&P
includes in its calculations the present value of the company's
operating leases and do not net any surplus cash given the
financial-sponsor ownership.  S&P estimates that EBITDA coverage
for 2017 will be slightly above 3x.  S&P anticipates that leverage
will drop to close to 6x in 2018 as it expects increased cash flow
generation from new acquisitions while debt remains relatively
stable.  S&P also predicts that coverage metrics will remain
slightly above 2.5x during 2018.

In addition, Focus has resilient cash flow generation as it
benefits from downside protection stemming from the economics
behind the acquisitions it has pursued.  The company retains a
cumulative preferred position from the earnings generated at the
partner firm level, which means that Focus receives the
corresponding portion of earnings acquired before partners receive
any profits.  As a result of the downside protection embedded into
the partner structure, S&P factors a positive comparable ratings
adjustment into its analysis.

S&P assess Focus' liquidity as adequate and expect sources of
liquidity to exceed uses by at least 1.2x during the next 12
months.  S&P also forecasts that net sources of liquidity should
remain positive even if EBITDA unexpectedly declines by 15%.  The
principal sources and uses of liquidity once the transaction closes
are:

Principal sources of liquidity are:

   -- Around $17 million in cash and equivalents at the end of
      2016;
   -- $250 million senior secured revolving credit facility; and
   -- Around $90 million in funds from operations in the next 12
      months.

Principal uses of liquidity are:

   -- Acquisition of partner entities for approximately
      $430 million in 2017.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectation that Focus will
continue to grow revenues through further acquisitions while
keeping debt to adjusted EBITDA above 6.5x during the next 12
months.  S&P expects the company's organic cash flow generation to
remain resilient as a result of downside protection.

S&P could consider lowering the ratings if the company's cash flow
generation is affected by significant market volatility, such that
debt to adjusted EBITDA is above 7.0x-7.5x or interest coverage is
below 2.0x.  Additionally, S&P could consider lowering the ratings
if the company undertakes debt-financed shareholder dividends that
increase leverage to this area.

In S&P's view, an upgrade is unlikely over the next 12 months.
However, S&P could consider raising the ratings if debt to adjusted
EBITDA falls below 5.0x as a result of a significant increase in
cash flow generation or faster-than-expected debt repayment.

                   About Gastar Exploration

Houston, Texas-based Gastar Exploration Inc. --
http://www.gastar.com/-- is an independent energy company engaged
in the exploration, development and production of oil, condensate,
natural gas and natural gas liquids in the United States.  Gastar's
principal business activities include the identification,
acquisition, and subsequent exploration and development of oil and
natural gas properties with an emphasis on unconventional reserves,
such as shale resource plays.  

Gastar reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of
$103.53 million on $58.25 million of total revenues for the year
ended Dec. 31, 2016, compared to a net loss attributable to common
stockholders of $473.98 million on $107.29 million of total
revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015.

The Company's balance sheet as of Dec. 31, 2016, showed $300.20
million in total assets, $440.63 million in total liabilities and a
total stockholders' deficit of $140.43 million.

                      *      *      *

As reported by the TCR on March 15, 2016, Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services lowered its corporate credit rating on Gastar Exploration
to 'CCC-' from 'CCC+'.  The downgrade follows Gastar's
announcement that it had just $29 million of cash on hand and a
fully drawn revolver.  The company's borrowing base current stands
at $180 million, but will be reduced to $100 million at the earlier
of the close of the Appalachian asset sale or April 10, 2016.
Proceeds from the Appalachian asset sale are expected to be $80
million.

In June 2016, Moody's Investors Service downgraded the Corporate
Family Rating of Gastar to 'Caa3' from 'Caa1'.  The rating outlook
was changed to 'negative' from 'stable'.  The downgrade of
Gastar's CFR to Caa3 reflects the company's weakened liquidity and
reduced size following the sale of its Appalachian assets in April
2016.

principal amount of senior secured first lien notes due 2022.  The
New Notes will be senior first-priority secured obligations of
GenOn and will be guaranteed by its existing and future restricted
subsidiaries that guarantee GenOn's existing revolving credit
facility.

The New Notes will be initially issued by a special purpose limited
liability company which will not be an affiliate of GenOn, and the
proceeds of the offering will be deposited in a segregated escrow
account until the date on which certain escrow conditions are
satisfied and the escrow proceeds are released.  Concurrent with
the satisfaction of the Escrow Conditions, the Escrow Issuer will
merge with and into GenOn and GenOn will be the surviving entity
and assume all of the obligations of the Escrow Issuer under the
notes and the indenture governing the notes by operation of law.

Upon the consummation of the Merger, GenOn will use the net
proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem
or discharge its outstanding 7.875% senior notes due 2017 in
accordance with their terms and to pay fees and expenses related to
the offering of the New Notes.

The New Notes will be subject to a special mandatory redemption if

the Escrow Conditions are not satisfied or if GenOn, in its sole
discretion, otherwise determines to redeem the New Notes on or
prior to June 14, 2017.

The New Notes and related guarantees are being offered only (1) in
the United States to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on
Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and (2)
outside the United States in offshore transactions to non-U.S.

the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction
and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent
registration or an applicable exemption from the registration
requirements.  This notice is issued pursuant to Rule 135c under
the Securities Act, and does not constitute an offer to sell, or a
solicitation of an offer to purchase, the New Notes.

In connection with the private offering of senior secured first
lien notes due 2022, GenOn Energy, Inc. disclosed the following
supplemental financial data regarding the Company's subsidiaries
that are proposed to guarantee the Notes and the Company's
subsidiaries that it expects will not guarantee the Notes derived

At the same time, S&P placed its 'BB-' issue-level rating on Global
Eagle's senior secured credit facility and 'B-' issue-level rating
on its senior unsecured convertible notes on CreditWatch with
developing implications.  This indicates that S&P could raise,
lower, or affirm the ratings, depending on its view of the
business.

The amendment waived the event of default related to the company's
delay in filing its annual report.  The amendment requires higher
amounts of term loan amortization, which could result in better
recovery prospects for lenders in a default scenario due to a lower
estimated amount of debt outstanding in a hypothetical default and
a higher default point due to higher term loan amortization and
interest expense.  However, S&P do not have enough visibility into
the company's operations to make a determination at this time and
could reevaluate our valuation assumptions.

"The CreditWatch placement follows the amendment to Global Eagle's
credit agreement, which included terms that were more punitive than
we expected," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Rose Askinazi.
S&P believes the concessions reflect recent management turnover,
the complex integration of Emerging Markets Communications, and
limited visibility into financial performance. While the sudden
departures of senior executives raise questions about management
and governance, the company has publicly stated that it has not
discovered any fraud and does not expect to restate past
financials.  However, limited visibility into the company's
operations and increased interest expense and required amortization
has reduced S&P's confidence level in its base-case forecast,
particularly with regard to projected synergies.

S&P intends to resolve the CreditWatch placements over the coming
months as information becomes available about the company's
operating performance, internal controls, financial policy, and
realization of outlined synergies related to the acquisition of
Emerging Markets Communications.  S&P could consider a negative
rating action if the company further delays filing its annual
report, if S&P believes financial performance is no longer
supportive of its expected credit metrics, or if information
becomes available that indicates weak corporate governance.

Actions on the issue-level ratings will be determined by S&P's view
of recovery prospects, which may improve, combined with the
corporate credit rating, which S&P could affirm or lower.


GLORIA MONTANO: Clark Buying Santa Barbara Property for $700K
-------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Deborah J. Saltzman of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court Central
District Of California will convene a hearing on May 17, 2017 at 2
p.m. to consider Gloria Montano's proposed sale of real property
located at 827 Cheltenham Road, Santa Barbara, California to Peter
S. Clark for $700,000.

Objections, if any, must be filed no later than May 15, 2017.

The Property was originally owned by Leonard Scifers, who is now
deceased.  The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Co., National
Association FKA The Bank of New York Trust Co., N.A., As Successor
to JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., Indenture Trustee for Residential
Asset Mortgage Products, Inc., GMAC Mortgage Loan Trust 2004-GH1
("BONY") loaned Mr. Scifers money in 2004, which was allegedly
secured by a promissory note and deed of trust creating a lien on
the Property.  However, the title company never recorded any such
deed.  The Debtor was not yet on the title to the Property at that
time.  Subsequently, Mr. Scifers executed a Grant Deed conveying
the Property to himself and Debtor as joint tenants.  He later died
and the Debtor became the sole owner of the Property.  After Mr.
Scifers' death, the Debtor took out a loan on the Property with
Athas in August 2015 also secured by a promissory note and deed of
trust creating a lien on the Property.  Unlike the BONY
transaction, the Athas lien was properly recorded.

Athas and BONY both filed adversary proceedings against each other
and against the Debtor.  The claims as between the lenders are for
relative lien priority. The BONY Adversary complaint includes cause
of action for: (i) Nondischargeability of Debt; (ii) Declaratory
Judgment; (iii) Equitable Subrogation; (iv) Imposition of an
Equitable Lien; and (v) Determination of Validity, Priority or
Extent of Lien.  The Athas Adversary complaint (i) Declaratory
Relief; (ii) Non-Discharability of Debt; and (iii) Fraud (the Fraud
claim is against Debtor for allegedly failing to notify Athas of
the BONY indebtedness).

Both adversary proceedings are pending before the Court.  Though
the parties have attempted to mediate their disputes and actually
reached a global agreement at one point, Athas ultimately refused
to sign the settlement agreement causing the settlement to
collapse.  Athas has presented a Demand Loan Payoff dated April 27,
2017 in the total amount of $491,828 ("Athas Payoff Demand").  No
payoff demand has been received from BONY; however, BONY's counsel
has informally informed the Debtor's counsel that the pay-off
amount for the BONY loan as of mid-March was approximately
$247,000.  In addition, BONY and Athas have informed the Debtors'
counsel that their respective title companies agree to contribute
to escrow in order to reduce the payoff demands.  

The expected contributions from the respective title companies and
the resulting payoff demands are:

          a. BONY: Original payoff demand of $247,000, expected
contribution of $40,000 from First American Title Co., and
resulting payoff demand of $207,000.

          a. Athan: Original payoff demand of $491,828, expected
contribution of $25,000 from WFG Title Co., and resulting payoff
demand of $466, 828.

The Debtor proposes to sell the Property to the Buyer at a sale
price of $700,000.  Due to the Buyer's desire to expedite the
process and the fact that the Property has been on the market for
over a year and a half, the Debtor asks to expedite the process and
asks that the Court considers the Motion on 7 days of notice with a
closing date to closely follow.

An initial escrow of $21,000 was made by the Buyer when the Debtor
tentatively accepted the offer.  An additional escrow of $180,000
was made May 4, 2017 in order to assure the Court that the Buyer
has ample funds and is very serious and motivated to complete the
sale.  Also, the Buyer has obtained pre-approval to borrow the
remaining amount of $500,000 ("Pre-Approval").  In the event the
Pre-Approval is in any way affected because of the condition of the
Property, the Buyer will, if needed, deposit $500,000 into escrow
and provide proof at the hearing on the Motion.

A copy of the Residential Purchase Agreement and Joint Escrow
Instructions dated April 4, 2017 attached to the Motion is
available for free at:

           http://bankrupt.com/misc/Gloria_Montano_119_Sales.pdf

Moreover, the process has taken far too long and, after mediation
attempts and tentative settlement agreements have failed, the
parties do not appear to be close to settling.  At the same time,
their payoff demands are growing by the day.  Accordingly, the
Debtor asks that all parties' payouts be reduced by 10%.  This
request includes the reduction of the Brokers' fees as well as the
Debtor's attorneys' fees.

The Debtor asks that the Court disburse the proceeds of the sale as
follows: (i) $186,300 to BONY; (ii) $420,146 to Athas; (iii)
$31,500 to the Brokers; and (iv) $40,196 to the Debtor's counsel.
It moves that the remaining $21,858 be deposited into the Court's
registry and used on behalf of its estate.  If either BONY or Athas
wishes to seek additional funds they can do so from the bankruptcy
estate.

The brokers and the Debtor's counsel have agreed to the proposed
10% reduction.  However, BONY and Athas have not given their
consent and have indicated they would continue to seek the full
amount of their respective claims.  Accordingly, in the
alternative, the Debtor moves that the Court approves the Sale with
a carve-out for brokers' fees and professional fees to be
distributed through the order approving the Sale.  It further asks
that the remaining fees be deposited in the Court's registry so
that BONY and ATHAS can resolve the amounts to be paid in full
satisfaction of its obligations.

The Debtor submits that a sufficient business justification exists
for selling the Property as a sale is the only way for the estate
to obtain any value with respect to the Property.  As noted, the
house is in poor condition and has been on the market for almost
two years.  Though the Debtor was able to procure a buyer at one
point, that buyer backed out because of the poor condition of the
house.  

The present Buyer has made a cash offer on an "as-is, where is"
basis.  All other parties-in-interest have had more than sufficient
time to find a better offer.  Consequently, the Debtor is confident
that the Buyer's present offer and the condition of the Property
constitute a sound business justification for selling the Property
pursuant to the Proposed Sale.  Accordingly, the Debtor asks the
Court to approve the (i) sale of the Property to the Buyer free and
clear of the Secured Lenders' interests; (ii) payment of closing
costs related thereto, including brokerage commissions and
attorneys' fees; and (3) disbursement of funds to the lien
creditors identified in full satisfaction of those claims, or,
alternatively, an order granting the sale of the Property with a
carve-out for brokers' fees and professional fees, with the
remaining amount to be deposited into the Court's registry.

Montco Offshore, Inc. and its affiliate Montco Oilfield

Case No. 17-31646) on March 17, 2017.  The petitions were signed by
Derek C. Boudreaux, the CFO.  The cases are assigned to Judge

had approximately $84 million in total assets (which are mostly

GREEN TREE 1996-D: S&P Discontinues D Rating on Class B Tranche
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings discontinued its 'D (sf)' rating on class B from
Green Tree Recreational, Equipment & Consumer Trust 1996-D.

The rating was previously lowered to 'D (sf)' because the class
experienced interest shortfalls that S&P believed would remain
outstanding for an extended period of time.  In addition, the notes
are undercollateralized due to collateral deterioration, and S&P
believes they would likely fail to pay full principal by the class'
legal final maturity date.

S&P discontinued this rating according to its surveillance and
withdrawal policy and because S&P is no longer providing ongoing
surveillance for this class.



HERITAGE ORGANIZATION: Federal Ct. Upholds Order on Canada Suit
---------------------------------------------------------------
Vidya Kauri of Bankruptcy Law360 reports that a Texas federal court
affirmed a bankruptcy court's ruling that certain financial
arrangements Dallas attorney William R. Canada Jr. marketed for
Heritage Organization LLC in 1998-2002 for Heritage Organization
LLC were not tax shelters.

The ruling allows Mr. Canada to avoid a $40 million IRS penalty,
Law360 cites.

The Heritage Organization, LLC, filed a voluntary petition for
relief under Chapter 11 (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 04-35574) on
May 17, 2004.  Dennis Faulkner was appointed as the chapter 11
Trustee of Heritage's estate on Aug. 16, 2004.  The Court
confirmed Heritage's plan of reorganization on Sept. 12, 2007.
Pursuant to the Plan, a creditors' trust was created and Mr.
Faulkner was appointed as Trustee.



HEXION INC: Incurs $42 Million Net Loss in First Quarter
--------------------------------------------------------
Hexion Inc. reported a net loss of $42 million on $870 million of
net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to a
net loss of $44 million on $909 million of net sales for the same
period in 2016.  As of March 31, 2017, Hexion had $2.12 billion in
total assets, $4.69 billion in total liabilities and a total
deficit of $2.57 billion.

"Demand for our specialty products remained strong with overall
Hexion sales and volumes gains of 6% and 8%, respectively, compared
to the prior year and adjusted for our recent divestitures," said
Craig O. Morrison, chairman, president and CEO.  "While the lead
lag impact of higher raw materials negatively impacted the first
quarter by $5 million, we experienced strong momentum in our Forest
Products Resins segment, which was able to partially offset raw
material headwinds and softening market conditions in our specialty
epoxy business.  We expect improvement in our specialty epoxy
business in the second half of 2017 as demand increases."

Mr. Morrison added: "We also posted improved year-over-year EBITDA
results in our oilfield proppants and base epoxy resins businesses,
while our recently-completed formaldehyde plants contributed $4
million in EBITDA in the first quarter of 2017.  In addition, we
continue to execute our strategic growth program, such as our
recently announced new European Technology Center focused on the
ongoing development of innovative auto composite applications.
Finally, while our strong volumes and seasonal net working capital
build impacted our liquidity at quarter-end, in aggregate, we
expect to be free cash flow positive for the remainder of the
year."

Net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, were $870 million,
a decrease of 4% compared with $909 million in the prior year
period.  The decline in reported net sales was primarily driven by
the impact of recent divestitures.  Net sales increased 6% when
adjusting for recent divestitures reflecting broad-based volume
gains throughout the product portfolio.

Segment EBITDA for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, was $95
million, a decrease of 22% compared with $122 million in the prior
year period.  Segment EBITDA in the first quarter of 2017 decreased
by $12 million, or 11%, when adjusted for divestitures. First
quarter 2017 results were driven by growth in the Company's
Versatic Acids and Derivatives and global forest product
businesses, as well as improvements in base epoxy resins and
oilfield proppants, which was offset by a year-over-year decline in
the specialty epoxy resins business driven by temporary destocking
in its Asian-based wind energy business and the negative impact
from raw material inflation.  In addition, the Company benefited
from insurance proceeds in the prior year period related to its
Versatic Acids and Derivatives business that did not reoccur in the
first quarter of 2017.

In mid-2016, the Company completed the closure of its Norco,
Louisiana facility and began sourcing epichlorohydrin under
long-term external supply agreements.  In total, the Company
expects to achieve $20 million of annualized savings from this
strategic initiative and had realized $18 million in savings as of
March 31, 2017.

In addition to the Norco closure, the Company has $13 million of
incremental, in-process cost savings related to manufacturing cost
reductions and $5 million in selling, general and administrative
cost savings.  As of March 31, 2017, Hexion had $20 million of
total in-process cost savings, the majority of which it expects to
be achieved in 2017.

At March 31, 2017, Hexion had total debt of approximately $3.6
billion compared to $3.5 billion at Dec. 31, 2016.  In addition, at
March 31, 2017, the Company had $362 million in liquidity comprised
of $107 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $235
million of borrowings available under the ABL Facility and $20
million of time drafts and availability under credit facilities at
certain international subsidiaries.  Hexion expects to have
adequate liquidity to fund its ongoing operations for the next
twelve months from cash on its balance sheet, cash flows provided
by operating activities and amounts available for borrowings under
its credit facilities.

In February 2017, Hexion issued $485 million aggregate principal
amount of 10.375% First-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2022 and
$225 million aggregate principal amount of 13.75% Senior Secured
Notes due 2022.  In March 2017, proceeds from the Senior Notes
Offering, along with cash from Hexion's balance sheet, were used to
redeem the outstanding 1.5 Lien Notes.  In addition, in connection
with the Senior Notes Offering, the Company received extended
revolving facility commitments under the ABL Facility in aggregate
principal amount of $350 million with a maturity in December 2021
and reduced the size of the ABL Facility from $400 million to $350
million.

                      Covenant Compliance

The instruments that govern the Company's indebtedness contain,
among other provisions, restrictive covenants regarding
indebtedness (including an Adjusted EBITDA to Fixed Charges ratio
incurrence test), dividends and distributions, mergers and
acquisitions, asset sales, affiliate transactions and capital
expenditures.

The indentures that govern the Company's 6.625% First-Priority
Senior Secured Notes, 10.00% First-Priority Senior Secured Notes,
10.375% First-Priority Senior Secured Notes, 13.75% Senior Secured
Notes and 9.00% Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes contain an
Adjusted EBITDA to Fixed Charges ratio incurrence test which may
restrict our ability to take certain actions such as incurring
additional debt or making acquisitions if the Company is unable to
meet this ratio (measured on a last twelve months, or LTM, basis)
of at least 2.0:1. The Adjusted EBITDA to Fixed Charges ratio under
the Secured Indentures is generally defined as the ratio of (a)
Adjusted EBITDA to (b) net interest expense excluding the
amortization or write-off of deferred financing costs, each
measured on a LTM basis.

The Company's ABL Facility does not have any financial maintenance
covenant other than a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.0 to
1.0 that would only apply if the Company's availability under the
ABL Facility at any time is less than the greater of (a) $35
million and (b) 12.5% of the lesser of the borrowing base and the
total ABL Facility commitments at such time.  The Fixed Charge
Coverage Ratio under the credit agreement governing the ABL
Facility is generally defined as the ratio of (a) Adjusted EBITDA
minus non-financed capital expenditures and cash taxes to (b) debt
service plus cash interest expense plus certain restricted
payments, each measured on an LTM basis.  At March 31, 2017, the
Company's availability under the ABL Facility exceeded such levels;
therefore, the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio did not apply.

                      About Hexion Inc.

Hexion Inc., formerly known as Momentive Specialty Chemicals, Inc.,
headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, is a producer of thermoset resins
(epoxy, formaldehyde and acrylic).  The Company is also a supplier
of specialty resins for inks and specialty coatings sold to a
diverse customer base as well as a producer of commodities such as
formaldehyde, bisphenol A, epichlorohydrin, versatic acid and
related derivatives.

Hexion reported a net loss of $38 million on $3.43 billion of net
sales for the year ended Dec. 31, 2016, compared to a net loss of
$39 million on $4.14 billion of net sales for the year ended Dec.
31, 2015.

                          *     *     *

The TCR reported on Oct. 3, 2014, that Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services lowered its corporate credit rating on Momentive Specialty
by one notch to 'CCC+' from 'B-'.  "The downgrade follows MSC's
significant use of cash in the first half of 2014 and our
expectation that lackluster cash flow from operations and elevated
capital spending will cause free operating cash flow to be
significantly negative in 2014 and 2015," said Standard & Poor's
credit analyst Cynthia Werneth.

As reported by the TCR on Jan. 24, 2017, Moody's Investors Service
lowered the Corporate Family Rating (CFR) of Hexion Inc. to Caa2.
Hexion's Caa2 CFR reflects its elevated leverage of over 9 times,
weak cash flow from operations and negative free cash flow.

INC RESEARCH: S&P Puts 'BB+' CCR on CreditWatch Negative
--------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings placed its ratings on INC Research Holdings
Inc., including the 'BB+' corporate credit rating, on CreditWatch
with negative implications.  The transaction will be funded with a
roughly equal mix of equity and debt.

"The CreditWatch placement is in response to INC Research's planned
merger with inVentiv, materially raising leverage to the high-4x
area pro forma from today," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst
Matthew Todd.  If the transaction closes as planned, S&P could
lower the rating from 'BB+' by one to two notches.

Still, S&P believes the merger would broaden its service offerings,
expand its customer base with top-25 pharmaceutical companies, and
increase its therapeutic and geographic range.  The transaction
combines the seventh-largest player in the pharmaceutical CRO
industry, INC Research, with the sixth-largest player, inVentiv,
which is also the leading provider of outsourced commercial
services to the pharmaceutical industry.  Combined, the company
will have roughly $3.2 billion in annual revenues, and be a
top-three player in the global CRO industry.

The CRO industry continues to grow (at an estimated annual growth
rate in the 7%-8% range over the next two years), as the
pharmaceutical industry increases both its research and development
(R&D) spending and its outsourcing to CROs.  Global presence and
capacity, therapeutic expertise, and breadth of services are
important as pharmaceutical clients seek to simplify their vendor
relationships via preferred provider relationships. INC Research
has traditionally been stronger with midsize pharmaceutical and
biotech companies.  With inVentiv, which has had greater
relationships with Big Pharma, the combined company can further
penetrate the larger pharmaceutical company market.

The combination also expands INC Research's therapeutic expertise
and service offerings.  With inVentiv, INC Research increases its
presence in solid tumor and respiratory applications, as well as
strengthens its position in central nervous system applications.
The merger also adds inVentiv's leading position in the CCO
industry.

However, the CRO industry is highly competitive, and the combined
company's management teams will be focused on integrating platforms
and systems over the near term.  In addition, sizable CRO mergers
can result in dissynergies because large pharmaceutical clients
could perceive too high supplier concentration in a merger of large
CROs and shift business to other CROs.  S&P believes INC Research
has relatively low customer overlap with inVentiv, mitigating
revenue loss.  Also, the combined company will have to balance its
efforts to further increase its business with Big Pharma at the
same time it satisfies its traditional smaller biopharmaceutical
customer base, which has different needs.  Still, S&P believes the
merger provides attractive opportunities for expansion and cost
savings, firmly putting the company on the same stage as top-tier
CROs, such as Quintiles and Pharmaceutical Product Development.

The merger significantly increases INC Research's adjusted net debt
leverage, more than doubling to the high-4x area on a pro forma
basis, from about 2x currently.  Management has demonstrated
financial conservatism by utilizing a significant amount of equity
financing for the deal and maintaining a sizable cash balance.
Management has stated that it intends to reduce leverage to below
3x in 18 to 24 months after the transaction closes.  S&P forecasts
that its calculation of adjusted debt leverage could decline to
about 4x by the end of 2018, assuming about $100 million of cost
synergies.  S&P believes the company will realize revenue synergies
at a slower pace because large pharmaceutical clients can be slow
to gain confidence in suppliers during transformative events.  S&P

INVENTIV GROUP: S&P Puts 'B' CCR on CreditWatch Positive
--------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings placed its ratings on inVentiv Group Holdings
Inc., including the 'B' corporate credit rating, on CreditWatch
with positive implications.  This follows INC Research Holdings
Inc.'s plan to merge with inVentiv, which is valued at an
enterprise value of $4.6 billion.

"Our assignment of a CreditWatch with positive implications
reflects inVentiv's stronger competitive position and our
expectation that the combined entity's adjusted debt leverage will
be lower than that of inVentiv on a stand-alone basis, owned by a
private equity sponsor," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst
Matthew Todd.

"We will likely raise our corporate credit rating on inVentiv by
multiple notches at the close of the transaction," S&P said.

"We will resolve the CreditWatch placement when the announced
acquisition is closed, likely in the second half of 2017. Based on
the proposed financing terms, we will likely raise the corporate
credit rating by multiple notches," S&P said.

       creditors;

   (d) formulate the Debtor's Plan of Reorganization and any
       amendments, if warranted;

   (e) prepare the Debtor's Disclosure Statement and any
       amendments, if warranted;

   (f) complete all legal tasks required for confirmation; and

   (g) represent the Debtor in any subsequent proceedings under
       the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtor paid Mr. Sommerstein a $4,500 retainer plus the filing

Mr. Sommerstein assured the Court that the firm is a "disinterested

KATE SPADE: S&P Puts 'BB-' CCR on CreditWatch Positive
------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings placed its ratings, including the 'BB-'
corporate credit rating, on the handbag, apparel, and accessory
retailer Kate Spade & Co. on CreditWatch with positive
implications.

"The CreditWatch placement follows Kate Spade's announcement that
it has signed a definitive agreement to be acquired by the premium
accessory retailer Coach Inc. in a $2.4 billion transaction.  The
transaction is aimed at diversifying Coach's portfolio of modern
luxury accessory brands, including Coach and Stuart Weitzman, while
providing greater share to the millennial demographic," said credit
analyst Mathew Christy.  "Before the acquisition, we expected Kate
Spade's leverage in mid-2x range in 2017 and FFO-to-debt in the low
30% range.  We expect the transaction to close in the third
calendar quarter of 2017."

S&P will likely resolve the CreditWatch placement following the
expected completion of the transaction in the third calendar
quarter of 2017.  Assuming the transaction closes and all debt at
Kate Spade is repaid, S&P will likely withdraw all its ratings on
the company.  If the transaction does not close, S&P would likely
affirm the current 'BB-' corporate rating assuming operating
performance and credit metrics remain within S&P's expectations
during that time period.

KENDALL LAKE: Disputed Unsecured Claims to Get 75% Under Plan
-------------------------------------------------------------
Kendall Lake Towers Condominium Association, Inc., filed with the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida its
latest disclosure statement for its proposed Chapter 11 plan of
reorganization.

Under the latest plan, Kendall created a separate class for
disputed general unsecured claims, and classified the secured claim
of Miami-Dade County RER in Class 2.

Disputed general unsecured claims in Class 4 will be paid into
escrow and held by the association in a separate account pending
allowance or disallowance of the claims.  

Holders of Class 4 claims will receive a dividend of 75%.  Kendall
will pay 10% of the claims on the effective date of the plan while
the remainder will be paid in 60 equal monthly installments.

Meanwhile, Miami-Dade County RER will be paid in full of its
secured claim.  It will receive a monthly payment of $538.33 for
60 months at 4% interest.

The restructuring plan will be funded by the special assessment of
unit owners, according to Kendall's second amended disclosure
statement filed on May 2.

A copy of the disclosure statement is available for free at

                     About Kendall Lake Towers

Kendall Lake Towers Condominium Association, Inc., sought
protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D.
Fla., Case No. 16-12114) on Feb. 16, 2016.  The petition was signed
by Frank Landrian, manager.  At the time of the filing, the Debtor
estimated assets and debts of less than $1 million.

The Debtor is represented by Joel M. Aresty, Esq., at Joel M.
Aresty, PA.  

On May 3, 2016, the Office of the U.S. Trustee appointed an
official committee of unsecured creditors.  

On August 16, 2016, the Debtor filed a disclosure statement, which
explains its proposed Chapter 11 plan of reorganization.


KRONOS ACQUISITION: S&P Revises Outlook to Neg. & Affirms 'B-' CCR
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it revised its outlook on Kronos
Acquisition Holdings Inc. to negative from stable.  At the same
time, S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B-' long-term corporate
zredit rating on the company.

"We base the outlook revision on softer-than-expected operating
results, which, combined with the company's high debt burden, have
pressured credit metrics and increased the risk of an EBITDA
shortfall from lower margins or higher restructuring costs," said
S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Nayeem Islam.

S&P Global Ratings also lowered its issue-level rating on Kronos'
first-lien term loan to 'B-' from 'B' and revised its recovery
rating on the debt to '3' from '2'.  The company will use the
proceeds from a US$200 million term loan add-on to fund
acquisitions and land purchase for US$134 million, repay
outstanding borrowings under the asset-based loan, and add cash to
the balance sheet.  The proposed add-on lowers the recovery
prospects on Kronos' first-lien term loan stemming from higher
first-lien debt at default; hence the downgrade to the debt and
revision to the recovery rating to '3' from '2'.  The '3' recovery
rating indicates S&P's expectation of meaningful (50%-70%; rounded
estimate 60%) recovery in a default scenario.

At the same time, S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'CCC' issue-level
rating on Kronos' senior unsecured notes.  The '6' recovery on the
notes is unchanged, reflecting S&P's expectation of negligible
(0%-10%; rounded estimate 0%) recovery in a default scenario.

The ratings on Kronos reflect the company's small market position
in the global consumer products industry as well as its heavy debt
burden and low fixed charge coverage.

The negative outlook reflects deteriorating credit metrics and cash
flow following a series of leveraging acquisitions that has led to
a high debt burden and increased fixed charges.  In addition,
recent softness in margins is expected to reduce EBITDA interest
coverage below 1.5x.  Although S&P do not anticipate any liquidity
concerns in the next 12 months, it believes increased risk of an
EBITDA shortfall from lower margins or higher restructuring costs
could lead to an unsustainable capital structure.

S&P could lower the ratings if EBITDA declines from 2016 levels due
to lower margins stemming from increasing market share in a highly
competitive environment, or from higher restructuring and
integration expenses.  S&P could also lower the rating if
debt-funded acquisitions further reduce Kronos' EBITDA interest
coverage, with limited growth in cash flows and no clear path of
deleveraging.

S&P could revise the outlook to stable if Kronos generates positive
free cash flows and improves earnings such that EBITDA interest
coverage is approaching 2x.


KRONOS WORLDWIDE: Fitch Affirms 'B+' Issuer Default Ratings
-----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) of
Kronos Worldwide Inc. (NYSE: KRO) and its wholly owned subsidiary,
Kronos International, Inc. at 'B+'. The Rating Outlook is Stable.

Kronos' ratings reflect its low leverage, low capex requirements
and a relatively conservative financial strategy that has seen the
company's capital structure largely unchanged for a number of
years. The company's small size and leverage to the TiO2 industry
are credit concerns but Fitch's expectations for a continued
recovery in TiO2 should lead to consistent FCF that should enable
Kronos to add to its liquidity position over the coming years.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

TiO2 Price Recovery: Fitch expects global TiO2 supply to be more
balanced in 2017 due to notable closures over the last two years
that have helped thin the global supply glut. The recent fire at
Huntsman's Pori, Finland plant has further tightened markets as the
130,000 tonne plant produced a highly specialized sulfate pigment
that is not easily replicated by other TiO2 producers. As a result,
Fitch projects TiO2 prices will continue to rise through the year
and into 2018, which Fitch forecasts will enable Kronos to generate
around $265 million of operating EBITDA in 2017. Kronos' operating
EBITDA is expected to trend down from the projected high reached in
2017 to a normalized level of between $200 million-$225 million by
2019 due to Fitch's forecast for lower TiO2 prices and some
increase in raw material costs. However, Fitch anticipates the
company will continue to generate meaningful free cash flow (FCF)
over the rating horizon. Fitch projects Kronos will post nearly
$130 million of FCF in 2017 and between $40 million-$65 million of
FCF per year thereafter.

Exposure to Raw Material Prices: Kronos purchases chloride process
grade slag and natural rutile ore as well as ilmenite for its
Canadian sulfate plant under long-term supply contracts leaving it
exposed to third-party suppliers for at least 75% of its feedstock
requirements. Fitch expects prices for both sulfate and chloride
TiO2 feedstock to follow pigment prices directionally over the
medium term with a recovery in the feedstock market becoming more
pronounced by 2018. The projected rise in ore prices will likely
lead to some degree of margin pressure for Kronos in the coming
years as higher cost raw materials flow through its cost structure.
However, the company is able to offset some of its third-party
exposure through its ilmenite mines in Norway, which supply all of
its European sulfate needs.

Additionally, Fitch projects that ore pricing pressure will be
limited due in part to the recent consolidation within the pigment
industry as well as noteworthy spinoffs of top players such as
Chemours and the soon-to-be Venator Materials Corp. Fitch believes
these transactions will lead to an increase in market transparency
within TiO2 that will strengthen the bargaining power of western
pigment producers with feedstock suppliers. The Tronox/Cristal
merger will also remove a large ore purchaser from the global
marketplace as the new entity will be 85% backwards integrated into
titanium ore compared to Cristal previously purchasing the majority
of its TiO2 feedstock on the open market.

Concentrated Market: The global TiO2 market is relatively
concentrated among a handful of top producers. Pro forma the
pending Tronox/Cristal merger, Fitch estimates the top five TiO2
producers account for around 60% of global capacity. While Kronos
believes it has leading market positions in both Europe and North
America, the company has limited ability to impact market dynamics.
Despite management's belief that it is the largest TiO2 producer in
Europe, the company's EBITDA generation at its European facilities
has been limited the past several years, which has restricted
capacity under its European facility due to the facility's
financial covenants.

Modest Debt Load: Fitch views Kronos' current debt load as modest
when compared against Fitch's view of a normalized operating EBITDA
for the company. Leverage is forecasted to fall below 1.5x by the
end of the current fiscal year and should stay around that level
through 2019. Additionally, the company's upcoming maturity
payments are light, limited to the amortization of its term loan,
which comes due in 2020. Fitch projects Kronos will be able to
favourably refinance the term loan prior to its maturity date.

Recovery Ratings: Fitch used a going concern EBITDA of $100 million
for its recovery analysis and a 5x multiple, which results in a
calculated enterprise value in a distressed scenario of around $500
million. Fitch's going concern EBITDA reflects the volatile and
highly competitive nature of the TiO2 industry, which, in a stress
scenario, would likely lead to pricing pressure that would shrink
Kronos' earnings.

Using these calculations, Fitch has affirmed Kronos Worldwide
Inc.'s ABL facility and Kronos International Inc.'s revolving
facility at 'BB+/RR1'. Fitch calculates that both facilities would
have outstanding recovery prospects (91%-100%) in a distressed
scenario given their first priority lien on working capital.

Fitch has upgraded Kronos Worldwide Inc.'s term loan to 'BB' and
has revised the recovery rating to 'RR2' from 'RR3'. Fitch believes
the instrument will have superior recovery prospects (71%-90%) in a
distressed scenario. The revised Recovery Rating reflects Fitch's
assumption that drawings under Kronos' two revolving credit
facilities would be limited in a distressed scenario leaving less
than the full committed amount available to be drawn for each
facility and increasing the projected recovery proceeds the term
loan would receive.

DERIVATION SUMMARY

Kronos is 100% levered to TiO2, with no other business segments to
offset the risk in the pigment industry. Pro forma the pending
Tronox/Cristal merger, Kronos will be the smallest western producer
of TiO2 on a total capacity basis and will be unable to exert any
notable influence on market dynamics when compared to peers such as
Chemours, Tronox/Cristal and Venator.

KEY ASSUMPTIONS

Fitch's key assumptions within Fitch ratings case for the issuer
include:

- TiO2 prices continue to rise through 2017 and into 2018,
   moderating thereafter;

- Kronos' plants run at full stated capacity in 2017, with
   2017 sales volumes matching 2016 levels. Sales volumes
   gradually decline thereafter as plant utilization rates
   settle around the 95%-96% range;

- TiO2 feedstock prices relatively flat year over year in
   2017, but price recovery starts in the second half of 2017
   and continues through 2018 before moderating in 2019;

- Capital expenditures and dividend payments consistent with
   historical averages.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Future Developments That May, Individually or Collectively, Lead to
Positive Rating Action

- No upgrades are currently contemplated given the historical
   volatility of the TiO2 market and Kronos' lack of
   diversification as a pure-play producer of the pigment. A
   positive rating action could occur if Kronos experienced a
   significant increase in size, scale or diversification and an
   increase in mid-cycle operating EBITDA to around $350 million-
   $400 million while maintaining consistent financial flexibility

   and a gross leverage ratio sustained below 4.0x-4.5x.

Future Developments That May, Individually or Collectively, Lead to
Negative Rating Action

- Sustained deterioration in the TiO2 market leading to
   expectations of negative FCF generation, weakened EBITDA
   margins and reduced financial flexibility;

- Material debt-funded dividend payments or acquisition activity
   leading to gross leverage sustained above 3.5x-4.0x.

LIQUIDITY

Robust Liquidity: Fitch projects Kronos will maintain a robust
liquidity profile driven by strong FCF generation that should
continue through the ratings horizon. This should provide the
company with ample liquidity to meet its operating needs. Fitch
projects any drawings by Kronos under its two revolving credit
facilities will be limited to seasonal working capital
requirements. At March 31, 2016, Kronos' North American ABL
facility had approximately $75 million available for borrowing
while its European facility had $88 million available.

FULL LIST OF RATING ACTIONS

Fitch has taken the following rating actions on Kronos:

Kronos Worldwide, Inc.
-- IDR affirmed at 'B+';
-- Senior secured term loan upgraded to 'BB/RR2' from 'BB-/RR3';
-- ABL Revolver affirmed at 'BB+/RR1'.

Kronos International, Inc.
-- IDR affirmed at 'B+';
-- Senior secured revolving credit facility affirmed at
   'BB+/RR1'.

The Rating Outlook is Stable.


LANCELOT INVESTORS: Kennedy Funding Breached Pact, Court Finds
--------------------------------------------------------------
Zachary Zagger of Bankruptcy Law360 reports that U.S. District
Judge William J. Martini found that Kennedy Funding Inc., as loan
originator, violated its co-lending agreement with KD8, an
investment vehicle backed by Lancelot Investors Fund Inc., when
Kennedy negotiated a release with guarantors after borrower
Clearwater Development allegedly defaulted on the loan in 2009.

Lancelot Investors is now in Chapter 7 bankruptcy, with Ronald R.
Peterson acting as Chapter 7 trustee.  It acted as co-lender with
Kennedy Funding in a $47 million loan to develop a golf course for
Clearwater Development.  The loan was guaranteed for $23 million by
Hans Imhof, Wells L. Marvin and Hatle Trusts.

The judge however did not rule on other bankruptcy and contract
claims by KD8 over Clearwater's default and over whether the
guarantors failed to live up to the release agreement by not
maintaining the golf course property, Law360 relates.  Those
claims, said the judge, Law360 relays, raised issues of fact that
would need to be sorted out.

The Chapter 7 trustee is represented by Sharon L. Levine, Paul
Kizel and Frank Thomas More Catalina of Lowenstein Sandler PC and
Ryan John Cooper of Pashman Stein PC.

The case is Peterson v. Hans Imhof et al., case number
2:13-cv-00537, in the U.S. District Court for the District of New
Jersey.

LIMITED STORES: Intends to File Liquidating Plan by July 17
-----------------------------------------------------------
LSC Wind Down, LLC f/k/a Limited Stores Company, LLC, and its
affiliated Debtors request the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware to extend the exclusive periods within which
to file a chapter 11 plan and to solicit acceptances of such plan
through July 17 and September 15, 2017, respectively.

Absent the requested extension, the Debtors' initial exclusive
filing period will expire on May 17, 2017 and the Debtors' initial
exclusive solicitation period will expire on July 16, 2017.

The Debtors submit that they are comprised of 250 store locations
and an e-commerce business. The Debtors undertook multiple
strategies to liquidate their assets including a store closing sale
process and sale of their intellectual property assets and have had
a number of competing constituencies with which to negotiate issues
in their cases and to formulate a plan of liquidation.

The Debtors relate that it has focused its efforts over the last
few months upon the successful wind-down of the Debtors' estates in
order to maximize the value of their assets for the benefit of
their creditors, including, without limitation, liquidating
substantially all of the Debtors' assets.  

To this point, the Debtors' efforts have resulted in the successful
liquidation of substantially all of their assets and the Debtors
have drafted a liquidating plan and circulated that draft on April
24, 2017 to the major constituents in their cases, including the
Committee.

However, the Debtors tell the Court that they require additional
time to finalize negotiations with the major constituents in these
cases, including the Committee and move towards plan confirmation.


A hearing on the Debtors' Motion will be held on May 31, 2017 at
11:00 a.m. Objection deadline has been set on May 24, 2017.

MAINEGENERAL HEALTH: Fitch Cuts $280.75MM Rev Bonds Rating to BB
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded the rating on the following bonds
issued by the Maine Health and Higher Educational Facilities
Authority on behalf of MaineGeneral Health (MGH) to 'BB' from
'BBB-':

-- $280.75 million revenue bonds, series 2011.

The Rating Outlook is revised to Stable from Negative.

SECURITY

The bonds are secured by a pledge of gross receipts, mortgage on
certain obligated group property, and a debt service reserve fund.
As additional security, MGH has a $15 million surety bond from the
Harold Alfond Foundation.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

WEAKENED PROFITABILITY AND DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE: The downgrade to
'BB' from 'BBB-' reflects ongoing pressure on profitability through
the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and improved performance in
fiscal 2016 (June 30 year-end) that was not sustained after weak
results in fiscal 2014 and 2015. Through the nine-month interim
period ended March 31, 2017, MGH had a negative 3.8% operating
margin compared to 0.2% in fiscal 2016 and negative 5.4% in fiscal
2015. Furthermore, while actual annual debt service coverage in
fiscal 2016 was adequate at 2.1x, actual annual debt service
coverage deteriorated to 1.3x for the nine-month fiscal 2017 period
as a result of the operating losses.

LIGHT LIQUIDITY: The downgrade is also based on the failure to
build liquidity, which has always been light. MGH's liquidity
position is light due the operating losses and working capital
management challenges. At March 31, 2017, unrestricted liquidity
equaled $103.5 million and 75.6 days cash on hand (DCOH) on a
combined basis. Fitch notes that MGM's annual 75 DCOH liquidity
covenant is based on the obligated group and measured 77.9 DCOH as
of March 31, 2017. If the liquidity covenant is violated at the end
of the fiscal year, trustee approval of an outside consultant would
be required. MGH is expected to end the current fiscal year with
liquidity balances above the covenant requirement and remain well
above the 50 DCOH event of default threshold.

SOLID MARKET PLATFORM: The rating continues to reflect MGH's
leading market position with about 60% inpatient market share that
is buoyed by its new replacement facility, as well as success in
growing its medical staff and outpatient business. Further, a
highly regulated operating environment limits material competitive
activity.

HEAVY BUT REDUCED DEBT BURDEN: MGH has a sizeable, but reduced debt
burden. Leverage metrics remain elevated through the March 31, 2017
interim period with maximum annual debt service (MADS) as a percent
of revenue of 5.5%, debt to EDITDA of 9.4x and debt to
capitalization of 60.6%, both unfavorable to Fitch's respective
'BBB' category medians of 3.6%, 4.3x and 50.2%. MGH does not have
any new money borrowing plans so the debt burden is expected to
moderate in the near term.

MINIMAL CAPITAL NEEDS: With the completion of its replacement
hospital and Thayer Campus renovation projects, MGH's future
capital needs are minimal. Spending will likely remain well below
depreciation through the near term, allowing for liquidity growth
if operating cash flow and working capital management improves.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

STABILIZATION OF COVERAGE AND LIQUIDITY: The Stable Rating Outlook
anticipates that MaineGeneral Health alleviates its debt service
coverage and cash position weakness, with modest improvement
expected by fiscal 2018. Failure to achieve liquidity targets and
appropriate debt service coverage levels for the rating level could
provide further rating pressure.

CREDIT PROFILE

MGH is the third-largest health system in Maine, operating 192
licensed beds in Augusta and another health care center in
Waterville (20 miles north of Augusta), along with a full range of
primary, secondary, and tertiary services and a 223-member employed
physician network. MGH also owns and operates long term care
facilities and a retirement community with independent and assisted
living services. Total revenues were $495.8 million in fiscal
2016.

WEAKENED PROFITABILITY

Following the difficult implementation of a revenue-cycle
information system upgrade in 2013, MGH's working capital
management has been challenged and has led to accounts receivables
write-offs in fiscal 2015. In fiscal 2015, about $19 million was
written down, reducing net patient revenue and increasing the
operating loss. However, management was proactive in addressing the
working capital issues by replacing staff and using an outside
consultant to review and implement new policies and procedures.
Consulting costs and an additional $12.5 million of depreciation
and interest expenses also negatively affected fiscal 2015's
operating earnings. As a result, the operating margin declined to
negative 5.4% in fiscal 2015 from negative 3.2% in fiscal 2014.

Fiscal 2016 operating earnings improved due to solid revenue gains,
mostly as a result of increased volumes, particularly from
outpatient and physician services. For instance, fiscal 2016
discharges increased 5.2% and physician clinic visits jumped 4.3%
over fiscal 2015 levels. Fiscal 2016 was also bolstered by a $14.7
million increase in net patient service revenues due a positive
difference in the amounts previously estimated and amounts
subsequently determined to be receivable or payable from third
party payors.

However, operating performance weakened during the first nine
months of fiscal 2017, with MGH generating a negative 3.8%
operating margin and 6.1% operating EBITDA margin. The operating
loss is partially being driven by lower volumes due to physician
access issues, with hospital stays declining 3.3% during the first
nine months of the fiscal year. In addition, labor cost increases
and reimbursement challenges from the leading commercial health
insurers are also pressuring operations. In response, management
implemented a financial improvement program that is expected to
decrease recurring expenses by about $5.4 million.

MODEST LIQUIDITY

MGH's liquidity position has remained modest due to revenue cycle
challenges and pressured earnings. Accounts receivable balances
jumped to a high 94 days in fiscal 2014 due to the problematic
revenue-cycle information system upgrade in 2013. After the
write-down and consultant engagement, days in accounts receivable
declined to 82.5 days at fiscal year-end 2015, 73.3 days at fiscal
year-end 2016, and 76.9 days at the end of March 31, 2017.
Management anticipates continued modest improvement as its enhanced
working capital management policies and procedures are fully
realized.

Unrestricted cash balances were also negatively affected by
unrealized investment losses of $3.5 million and $1.7 million,
respectively, in fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2016. At March 31, 2017,
unrestricted liquidity equaled $103.5 million, 75.6 DCOH and 33.9%
of long-term debt on a combined basis. MGH also maintains a $7.5
million working capital line of credit that could be used for
operational support or to meet the obligated group's 75 DCOH
liquidity covenant at the end of the fiscal year on June 30.

SERVICE AREA AND MARKET POSITION

MGH's primary service area is defined as Kennebec County, which
includes the state capital of Augusta. Overall service area
economic and demographic characteristics have been mixed, but
relatively stable with lower than average unemployment, a stable
and aging population, and below-average income levels. The presence
of the state capital and several higher educational institutions
are stabilizing factors.

MGH enjoys a leading market position with about 60% inpatient
market share that is supported by its replacement facility, as well
as success in expanding its medical staff and outpatient business.
The nearest competitor is 48-bed Inland Hospital, located about 16
miles north of Augusta in Waterville, and is part of the large
Bangor-based Eastern Maine Health System. Other competition comes
from the Portland, ME health systems that are located about 55
miles south, one of which (Mercy Medical Center) is also part of
Eastern Maine Health System. A few years ago, Franklin Hospital
(65-beds, 36 miles northwest in Farmington, ME) joined
Portland-based Maine Health System, the largest system in the
state. This has not affected MGH significantly, since Franklin
Hospital's programmatic offerings and service area does not overlap
much with MGH.

Further, a highly regulated operating environment limits material
competitive activity. Maine's certificate of need program that
regulates beds, major medical equipment, capital expenditures, new
health services and other related projects has limited competition
and provides for somewhat stable marketplace dynamics.

DEBT PROFILE

At March 31, 2017, MGH had a total $306 million in long-term debt
outstanding (including current portion), with no short-term debt
and no swaps. MADS is measured at $27.8 million, which includes all
outstanding debt and fully amortized term loans. Included in
long-term debt is a $10.25 million fixed-rate (3.16%) Bangor
Savings Bank term loan, which matures on April 19, 2018 with a $7.5
million balloon payment. The bank loan's terms mirror those under
the master indenture and it is expected to be refinanced prior to
or at maturity.

MGH has a 1.2x debt service coverage covenant based on actual
annual debt service, and produced 1.3x coverage in fiscal 2015 and
2.2x coverage in fiscal 2016 under that calculation. For the
nine-month ended March 31, 2017, coverage based on actual annual
debt service was 1.3x.


MARSH SUPERMARKETS: Files for Chapter 11, Still Seeking Buyer
-------------------------------------------------------------
Marsh Supermarkets Holding, LLC and its affiliates, owners of the
Marsh supermarket chain, sought bankruptcy protection, with plans
to conduct an auction for its 44 remaining stores on June 12,
2017.

"While today's decision was extremely difficult, we believe this
action is necessary to preserve the value of the business as we
seek a sale," Marsh Chief Executive Officer Tom O'Boyle said in a
statement.  "After reviewing every alternative, we concluded that
Chapter 11 clearly provides the most effective and efficient means
to ensure the best recovery for the company's stakeholders."

According to Marsh, the competitive nature of the grocery industry
has been exacerbated in recent years due to the entry of
mega-retailers and specialty chains into the grocery business, as
well as falling produce and retail food prices.  Indeed, many other
grocery retailers have commenced chapter 11 proceedings in recent
years, including Fairway Group Holdings Corp., The Great Atlantic &
Pacific Tea Company, Inc. (twice), Fresh & Easy, LLC (twice), Winn
Dixie, Inc., Haggen Holdings, LLC and Central Grocers, Inc.

                          Sale Efforts

Lee A. Diercks, the Company's CRO, explains that with the arrival
of a new leadership team in early 2013, the Debtors engaged in a
number of cost-saving initiatives.  For instance, the Debtors
closed 13 unproductive stores, and eliminated approximately $20
million in store and G&A operating costs, resulting in significant
operating profit improvements for the following two years.  To
counteract increased competitive activity, the Debtors launched
many merchandising and customer loyalty programs, including: (i)
Indiana Grown, a partnership with the Indiana State Department of
Agriculture, to feature local farmers meat, produce and specialty
foods items; (ii) Instacart, which offers in-home grocery delivery
and curbside pickup services; (iii) an upgraded web site and mobile
application technology, including in-store beacon applications for
customer offer management; (iv) expanded frequency and distribution
of core shopper direct mail programs; (v) added loyalty rewards
continuity programs; and (vi) implemented more than $2.5 million in
price reductions to maintain
competitive pricing models.  In September 2016, the Debtors
successfully exited an underperforming supply chain distribution
contract, in favor of a partnership with SuperValu.

This decision resulted in the closure of two of the Debtors'
warehouses (together, the "Dark Warehouses") that were utilized by
the Debtors' prior distribution provider.

In late 2016, the Debtors engaged Hilco Real Estate, LLC ("Hilco
Real Estate") in an effort to lower the overall costs of their real
property leases.  Hilco Real Estate attempted to negotiate
modifications to the terms of the Debtors' real property leases
with the Debtors' landlords, but these efforts ultimately did not
result in significant cost savings to the Debtors.

The Debtors did not have any employees at these two locations.

Furthermore, the Debtors, in consultation with their professional
advisors, completed a comprehensive review of the performance of
all of their retail stores to analyze, among other things, the
profitability and viability of each store location.  The results of
this analysis led to the Debtors: (i) ceasing operations at and
exiting 11 of their stores (collectively, the "Dark Stores"); (ii)
planning an orderly liquidation of and exit from 19 underperforming
and/or unprofitable Remaining Stores in an effort to conserve
resources and maximize utility (collectively, the "Closing
Stores"); and (iii) planning an orderly and efficient chapter 11
auction and sale process for the balance of the Remaining Stores
(collectively, the "Core Stores"), which collectively represent the
Debtors' most valuable store locations.

In furtherance of this, in September 2016, the Debtors engaged
Peter J. Solomon Company ("PJS") as their investment banking
advisor to solicit interest from third parties in a going concern
transaction.  With respect to the going concern sale process, in
total, PJS has thus far contacted more than 40 parties,
approximately 35 of which have entered into confidentiality
agreements in connection with receiving access to the Debtors'
confidential information.  Out of the 35 parties who entered into a
confidentiality agreement, 5 parties expressed an interest in
various groups of stores representing nearly all of the 44 Core
Stores.

Despite this interest, going concern buyers for the Debtors have
not yet emerged, however, some of these parties are still engaged
in active due diligence.  The Debtors, with the assistance of PJS,
are continuing to actively market the Debtors' assets for sale to
potential buyers in connection with these chapter 11 cases.

As a result, the Debtors decided to undertake a number of other
value maximizing initiatives, including the commencement of
marketing efforts with respect to all of the prescription assets of
their pharmacies (collectively, the "Pharmacy Assets"). Through
these efforts, the Debtors sold (the "Pharmacy Sale") the Pharmacy
Assets located at 37 of their pharmacies to an affiliate of CVS
Pharmacy Inc. for approximately $38 million.  The Pharmacy Sale
closed on a rolling basis between May 3-5, 2017, and the proceeds
of the sale were used to reduce the Senior Prepetition Obligations.
Subsequent to this closing, the Debtors no longer
operate any pharmacies.

In February 2017, the Debtors, in consultation with their secured
prepetition lenders, engaged Hilco Merchant Resources, LLC
("Hilco") to assist with the liquidation of the Debtors' assets at
their Closing Stores, which commenced in April 2017 and are
currently anticipated to conclude by the end of May 2017.

                       Auction in 30 Days

The Debtors believe that the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases
is a necessary and prudent measure to maximize the value for their
estates and stakeholders.  The Debtors intend to engage in a number
of value-maximizing initiatives during the Chapter 11 Cases,
including, without limitation, an auction and sale process for
their Core Stores. To that end, the Debtors filed a motion (the
"Bidding Procedures Motion") seeking authority to proceed with a
bidding and auction process in order to consummate a sale (the
"Sale") that they expect will generate maximum value for the Core
Stores.  In consultation with their professional advisors, the
Debtors developed certain bidding procedures (the "Bidding
Procedures"), which are designed to preserve flexibility in this
sale process, generate the greatest level of interest, and result
in the highest or best value for the assets.

Among other things, these Bidding Procedures create an appropriate
timetable for the Sale, consistent with the milestones under the
Debtors' proposed cash collateral order and the Debtors'
anticipated liquidity position.  The Bidding Procedures contemplate
a hearing to consider approval of the Sale on June 15, 2017, with
bids due on or before June 7th and an auction on June 12th.  While
the Debtors will maintain sufficient liquidity during the proposed
sale process and the timeline contemplated thereby, their liquidity
position only affords the Debtors a limited opportunity to market
and sell their assets, including the Core Stores.  The Debtors must
be in a position to either assume and assign or reject the Core
Stores by the June 19, 2017 closing date contemplated by the
Bidding Procedures, as July rent for a number of the Core Stores
will come due on June 25th, and the Debtors are simply not in a
position to incur July rent for the related leases.

The Debtors have filed a motion seeking to have the Bidding
Procedures Motion heard on shortened notice as it pertains to the
Debtors' request for the entry of the Bidding Procedures Order. The
Debtors believe that consideration of the Bidding Procedures Order
on shortened notice as requested in the Motion to Shorten, and
approval of the Bidding Procedures and the timeline provided for
therein, is justified under the circumstances of the Chapter 11
Cases, and necessary, prudent and in the best interests of the
Debtors, their estates and creditors.

At the outset of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors have also sought
approval to continue the store closing sales at the Closing Stores
to the extent that such sales did not finish prior to the Petition
Date, and to conduct store closing sales at the Core Stores to the
extent that the Debtors determine it is necessary (collectively,
the "Store Closing Sales").  This way, the Debtors will have
maximum flexibility to preserve and maximize the value of their
estates in the event that they determine, in their business
judgment, that it is necessary and prudent to conduct store closing
sales at any of the Core Stores.

                       First Day Hearing

A hearing on the Debtors' First Day Motions will be held on May 12,
2017 at 11:00 a.m. (ET) before the Honorable Brendan Linehan
Shannon at 824 North Market Street, 6th Floor, Courtroom No. 1,
Wilmington, Delaware 19801.

                  Prepetition Capital Structure

As of the Petition Date, the Debtors were jointly and severally
indebted and liable under the senior lien credit documents with
Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in its capacities as agent
and lender, in an aggregate principal amount not less than
$5,243,449, consisting of loans in the aggregate principal amount
of $2,536,863, and letters of credit in the aggregate undrawn face
amount of $2,706,586, plus all interest accrued and accruing
thereon (collectively, the "Senior Prepetition Obligations").

As of the Petition Date, Marsh Supermarkets Co. was indebted and
liable to Marsh Group Finance, LLC (under a Second Amended and
Restated and Consolidated Subordinated Promissory Note, dated as of
June 30, 2016,  in an aggregate amount not less than $25,678,461
(inclusive of both principal and interest), plus additional
interest accruing thereon, together with all costs, fees, expenses
(including attorneys' fees and legal expenses) and all other
obligations accrued, accruing or chargeable in respect thereof or
in addition thereto.

As of the Petition Date, the Borrower Debtors were indebted and
liable to Marsh Group Finance, LLC under a Subordinated Promissory
Note, dated Oct. 28, 2016 in an aggregate amount not less than
$6,338,185 (inclusive of both principal and interest), plus
additional interest.

As of the Petition Date, the Debtors' books and records list
approximately $30 million in outstanding trade liabilities.

The Debtors estimate that, as of the bankruptcy filing date, the
aggregate amount of outstanding real property lease-related
expenses is approximately $11 million.

While none of the Debtors' current employees are union members,
certain of the Debtors' former employees were employed under a
collective bargaining agreement.  In connection with the CBA,
certain of the Debtors participated in a multiemployer pension plan
(the "MEPP"), which those Debtors exited in November of 2012. As a
result of their exit from the MEPP, certain of the Debtors incurred
withdrawal liability totaling approximately $62 million. As of the
Petition Date, certain of the Debtors owe approximately $55 million
in connection with their withdrawal from the MEPP.

Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtors also provided a
single-employer defined benefit pension plan (the "Marsh Pension
Plan") to certain of their employees, which was frozen effective as
of Jan. 1, 1997.  According to the most recently performed
actuarial valuation, the Marsh Pension Plan is currently
underfunded in the approximate amount of at least $21.75 million.

MARSH SUPERMARKETS: List of 44 Core Stores That Remain Open
-----------------------------------------------------------
Marsh Supermarkets Holding, LLC and its affiliates, operators of
the Marsh supermarket chain, said 44 core stores will remain open
while it is looking for a buyer.

Marsh said it is ceasing operations at and exiting 11 of their
stores, and planning an orderly liquidation of and exit from 19
underperforming and/or unprofitable stores.

The Debtors' most valuable store locations -- identified as "core
stores" -- will remain open.   As part of the Debtors' overall

recoveries for the benefit of the Debtors' estates and their
creditors.

MEMORIAL PRODUCTION: Emerges From Chapter 11 as Amplify Energy
--------------------------------------------------------------
Memorial Production Partners LP announced on May 4, 2017, that it
successfully completed its financial restructuring and emerged from
Chapter 11 as a new corporation under the name Amplify Energy Corp.
The Company also announced that it engaged Jefferies LLC as lead
advisor and has initiated a process to explore and evaluate
potential strategic alternatives, which will include marketing
certain non-core assets for sale.

Through its financial restructuring, the Company eliminated more
than $1.3 billion of debt from its balance sheet and significantly
enhanced its financial flexibility. Additionally, the Company is
moving forward as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax
purposes. As part of its emergence, Amplify Energy also announced a
new Board of Directors, comprised of members of management and
direct or appointed representatives of the Company's largest
shareholders.

"This is an important day for our company and our stakeholders. In
addition to strengthening our financial position, we have made
great strides organizationally that will position the Company to
generate significant free cash flow, drive growth and achieve
long-term success," said William J. Scarff, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Amplify Energy. "We are very excited about
Amplify's prospects as we transition from an upstream MLP to a
growth oriented E&P company."

The new Board of Directors collectively echoed Mr. Scarff's
comments and said, "The completion of the restructuring process
marks the first step of transitioning Amplify from a conventional
production-based MLP to a streamlined growth-oriented enterprise.
The Board will work hand-in-hand with management to execute on a
value maximizing and transformative business plan. This plan
includes divesting non-core assets, accelerating investment in key
horizontal growth plays and focusing on our overall cost structure
to become a best-in-class low cost operator."

The following are highlights of Amplify's asset position:

* Approximately 394,000 gross acres (273,000 net) with operations

   in East Texas / Louisiana, the Rockies, South Texas and
   offshore California as of December 31, 2016

* Proved Developed PV-10 of $749 million and Total Proved PV-10
   of $914 million at April 13, 2017 pricing (1)

* Total estimated proved reserves of 1.2 Tcfe, of which
   approximately 62% were liquids and 72% were classified as
   proved developed properties (1)  

* Average net production for the fourth quarter of 2016 was 205.5

   MMcfe/d, implying a reserve-to-production ratio of
   approximately 16 years

* Significant inventory to grow production, including upside
   drilling locations with a principal focus on horizontal
   drilling opportunities in the East Texas Cotton Valley and the
   Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas, as well as directional
   drilling opportunities in offshore California

Effective on May 4, Amplify Energy's directors are:

* William J. Scarff, President and Chief Executive Officer at the

   Company

* Christopher Hamm, CEO at Axys Capital Management

* Michael Highum, former Member of the Board at Memorial
   Production Partners

* Evan Lederman, Managing Director and Partner at Fir Tree
   Partners

* David Proman, Managing Director and Partner at Fir Tree
   Partners

* Drew Scoggins, Managing Partner at Millennial Energy Partners
  
* Alex Shayevsky, Senior Analyst at Citadel LLC

Following the completion of the financial restructuring, the
Company will have 25 million shares of its common stock
outstanding. As previously announced, the Company informed NASDAQ
that it does not intend for the shares of Amplify Energy to be
listed on NASDAQ. The Company is in the process of registering for
its shares to be traded and quoted on the OTCQX or OTCQB market
(which are operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc.). The OTCQX and
OTCQB markets are interdealer quotation systems providing real time
quotation services, each of which the Company believes constitutes
an "established securities market" within the meaning of the
Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980 ("FIRPTA"). The
Company expects the new listing to go effective during the second
quarter of 2017.

Additionally, the Company's reserve-based revolving credit facility
has been amended and restated and the aggregate maximum revolving
lending commitments under the revolving credit facility reduced to
$1.0 billion, with an initial available borrowing base of $490
million, to be provided by existing lenders. Upon emergence, total
debt outstanding will be $430 million and cash on hand will be
approximately $14 million, providing total liquidity of $72 million
(including the impact of $2 million in letters of credit). The next
scheduled redetermination of the revolving credit facility
borrowing base will be November 2017. As of May 4, 2017, the
mark-to-market value of the Company's hedge book was approximately
$87 million.

Mr. Scarff continued, "We thank our employees, whose hard work and
dedication to safety and operational excellence allowed us to
continue operations as normal throughout this process. Our success
is a testament to the commitment and teamwork demonstrated by each
member of our organization. Looking ahead, I am confident that our
team will deliver long-term value for all stakeholders. The
Company's go forward business plan and significant additional
detail on each of our assets will be set forth in an Emergence Deck
that we plan to release in the coming weeks."

METROPARK USA: Oak Point Buying Remnant Assets for $10K
-------------------------------------------------------
Judge Robert D. Drain of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of New York will convene a hearing on June 2, 2017 at
10:00 a.m. to consider Metropark USA, Inc.'s sale of remaining
property, consisting of known or unknown assets or claims, which
have not been previously sold, assigned, or transferred ("Remnant
Assets"), to Oak Point Partners, Inc. for $10,000.

Objection deadline is May 26, 2017 at 4:00 p.m. (ET).

The Debtor and the Purchaser entered into the Remnant Agreement for
the sale and purchase of the Remnant Assets.  In accordance with
the Remnant Agreement, the Remnant Assets expressly exclude: (a)
any and all funds held by the Debtor in the estate's bank accounts;
(b) a certain litigation claim that may have independent value; (c)
claims or causes of action belonging to the Estate against any of
the professionals in connection with administration of its Estate,
or the proceeds of such claims or causes of action; (d) all default
judgments obtained by The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors
on behalf of the Estate during the Bankruptcy Case; and (e) the
Purchase Price.

In the Debtor's business judgment, the Purchase Price represents a
fair and reasonable sale price for such assets and is the highest
and best offer for the sale of the Remnant Assets.  It further
submits that the sale of the Remnant Assets, in accordance with the
terms of the respective purchase agreement, serves the best
interest of its estate and its creditors.  Accordingly, the Debtor
respectfully asks that the Court approves the Remnant Agreement.

The Debtor asks that the Court allows the Debtor's counsel to
recover reasonable, necessary costs and expenses from the sale
proceeds pursuant to section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.  The
Debtor further asks that the Court orders that the Debtor's counsel
will file a Certification of such costs and fees on notice to the
Second Secured Lien Lenders within 14 days of entry of an Order
approving the sale and, if no objection is filed, such costs and
fees will be allowed and paid from the proceeds of the sale without
further Order of the Court.

The Debtor submits that the sale of the Remnant Assets is a prudent
exercise of its business judgment under the circumstances and is in
the best interest of its estate and its creditors.  The Purchase
Price for the sale is reasonable and has been negotiated at
arm's-length.  Indeed, it is not aware of any future assets or
claims that may be liquidated, obtained or otherwise administered
for the benefit of its estate and its creditors.  The Debtor is
winding up the estate and sale of the Remnant Assets is required to
fully administer the estate.  Accordingly, the Debtor respectfully
asks that the Court grants the relief sought.

The Debtor asks that the Court waive the 14-day stay under
Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h).

MICROSEMI CORP: S&P Puts Instruments' 'BB' Rating on Watch Neg.
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings placed its 'BB' rating on Aliso Viejo,
Calif.-based semiconductor maker Microsemi Corp.'s senior secured
instruments on CreditWatch with negative implications following the
company's announcement of a tender offer for its 9.125% unsecured
notes.  The recovery rating on this debt is '2', indicating S&P's
expectation for substantial (70%-90%; rounded estimate: 70%)
recovery in the event of a payment default.

The rating action reflects the potential for a downgrade, resulting
from lower recovery on secured debt in a default scenario because
of a thinner layer of unsecured debt to absorb first losses.  The
resolution of the CreditWatch listing will depend on the amount of
redeemed notes, which S&P will evaluate at the early tender date of
May 24 and on the expiration date of June 8.

Microsemi said that it would purchase notes up to an aggregate
purchase price of $200 million, which amounts to roughly $170
million of principal assuming the company achieves the maximum
amount during the early tender period.  At this level, S&P believes
a one-notch downgrade of the senior secured instruments to 'BB-'
and a revision of the recovery rating to '3' are likely. The
company could increase the maximum aggregate purchase price above
$200 million at its discretion.  S&P assumes that the company will
fund most of the consideration for the transaction with a draw on
its revolving credit facility, which it will repay from cash flow
in future periods.

This transaction does not affect the corporate credit rating, which
remains 'BB-' with a positive outlook.  In fact, S&P thinks the
transaction modestly lowers probability of default given the
positive impact on cash flow of retiring high-coupon debt.  The
positive outlook reflects S&P's view that it could raise the rating
if cost reductions and continued debt repayment result in leverage
in the 3x area.  This metric was 3.5x at April 2, 2017 and S&P
believes the company will continue allocating cash flow to debt
repayment until it reaches 3x. If the transaction results in a
downgrade of the senior secured instruments to 'BB-' and there are
no further changes to the capital structure, an upgrade of the
company would also result in an upgrade of the senior secured
instruments back to 'BB'.

MORGAN STANLEY 2005-TOP 19: S&P Lowers Rating on Cl. L Certs to D
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings raised its ratings on eight classes of
commercial mortgage pass-through certificates from Morgan Stanley
Capital I Trust 2005-TOP 19, a U.S. commercial mortgage-backed
securities (CMBS) transaction.  In addition, S&P lowered its rating
on class L to 'D (sf)' and affirmed its 'B-(sf)' rating on class K
from the same transaction.

S&P's rating actions reflect its analysis of the transaction,
primarily using its criteria for rating U.S. and Canadian CMBS
transactions, which included a review of the credit characteristics
and performance of the remaining assets in the pool, the
transaction's structure, and the liquidity available to the trust.

S&P raised its ratings on classes B through J to reflect its
expectation of the available credit enhancement for these classes,
which S&P believes is greater than its most recent estimate of
necessary credit enhancement for the respective rating levels.  The
upgrades also reflect the increased defeasance and the decline in
specially serviced assets.

S&P affirmed its 'B- (sf)' rating on class K to reflect its
expectation that the available credit enhancement for this class
will be within its estimate of the necessary credit enhancement
required for the current rating.

While available credit enhancement levels suggest further positive
rating movements on classes D, E, F, G, H, and J and a positive
rating movement on class K, our analysis also considered the
susceptibility to liquidity interruptions from workout fees that
will be assessed when the fully defeased, previously modified
Parkway Center loan ($14.4 million, 13.9%) matures in March 2020.

S&P lowered its rating on class L to 'D (sf)' because it expects
the accumulated interest shortfalls to remain outstanding for the
foreseeable future.

According to the April 12, 2017, trustee remittance report, the
current monthly interest shortfalls totaled $20,343 and resulted
primarily from:

   -- Appraisal subordinate entitlement reduction amounts totaling

      $17,582;

   -- Special servicing fees totaling $1,736; and

   -- Workout fees totaling $1,031.

The current interest shortfalls affected classes subordinate to and
including class L.

                        TRANSACTION SUMMARY

As of the April 12, 2017, trustee remittance report, the collateral
pool balance was $103.7 million, which is 8.4% of the pool balance
at issuance.  The pool currently includes 15 loans and two real
estate-owned (REO) assets, down from 156 loans at issuance.  Two of
these assets ($8.1 million, 7.8%) are with the special servicer,
five ($35.2 million, 33.9%) are defeased, and four ($20.4 million,
19.7%) are on the master servicer's watchlist.  The master
servicer, Wells Fargo Bank N.A., reported financial information for
85.9% of the nondefeased loans in the pool, of which 68.9% was
year-end 2016 data, and the remainder was year-end 2015 data.

S&P calculated a 1.65x S&P Global Ratings weighted average debt
service coverage (DSC) and 55.1% S&P Global Ratings weighted
average loan-to-value (LTV) ratio using a 7.53% S&P Global Ratings
weighted average capitalization rate.  The DSC, LTV, and
capitalization rate calculations exclude the two specially serviced
assets and five defeased loans.  The top 10 nondefeased loans have
an aggregate outstanding pool trust balance of
$66.9 million (64.6%).

To date, the transaction has experienced $12.1 million in principal
losses, or 1.0% of the original pool trust balance.  S&P expects
losses to reach approximately 1.5% of the original pool trust
balance in the near term, based on losses incurred to date and
additional losses it expects upon the eventual resolution of the
two specially serviced assets.

                       CREDIT CONSIDERATIONS

As of the April 12, 2017, trustee remittance report, two assets in
the pool were with the special servicer, C-III Asset Management LLC
(C-III).  Details of the specially serviced assets, both of which
are part of top 10 nondefeased loans, follow:

The Sportmart Crystal Lake REO asset ($4.5 million, 4.3%) has a
total reported exposure of $4.9 million.  The asset is a retail
property totaling 52,599 sq. ft. located in Crystal Lake, Ill.  The
loan transferred to the special servicer on May 8, 2015, because of
imminent default and became REO on July 21, 2016.  
C-III indicated that the property is currently 100% vacant after
the sole tenant filed for bankruptcy.  A $1.6 million appraisal
reduction amount (ARA) is in effect against this asset.  S&P
expects a significant loss (60% or greater)upon this asset's
eventual resolution.

The Parkway Plaza Shopping Center REO asset ($3.6 million, 3.5%)
has a total reported exposure of $5.0 million.  The asset is a
retail property totaling 75,300-sq.-ft. located in Idaho Falls,
Idaho.  The loan transferred to the special servicer on Nov 21,
2013, for nonmonetary default and became REO on Nov. 19, 2015.  The
special servicer indicated that it is holding the property to
pursue new leasing, and a sale is anticipated in the third quarter
of 2017.

A $2.4 million ARA is in effect against this asset.  S&P expects a
significant loss upon this asset's eventual resolution.

S&P estimated losses for the two specially serviced assets,
arriving at a 74.2% weighted average loss severity.

NUVERRA ENVIRONMENTAL: Sets De Minimis Assets Sale Procedures
-------------------------------------------------------------
Nuverra Environmental Solutions, Inc., and its affiliates ask the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to authorize
uniform sale procedures to effectuate sales, assignments,
conveyances, transfers or other dispositions of assets to any
person or entity in a single transaction with a selling price of
not more than $50,000 per transaction, with an aggregate selling
price for all de minimis sales of no more than $2,000,000.

A hearing on the Motion is set for May 31, 2017 at 2:00 p.m. (ET).
The objection deadline is May 24, 2017 at 4:00 p.m. (ET).

The Debtors are currently in possession of certain assets of de
minimis value, in relation to the Debtors' estates, that are no
longer necessary for operation of their current business or
long-term business goals.  Such De Minimis Assets consist primarily
of water fracking tanks, and the Debtors may also desire to sell
other miscellaneous assets of de minimis value.

Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtors sold similar types of
assets as necessary in the ordinary course of their business.  They
do not currently have specific contracts to sell such assets in the
Chapter 11 cases but believe that if the opportunity presents
itself, the further sale of such assets during the Chapter 11 cases
would maximize estate value for the benefit of all creditors.

On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed their Prepackaged Plans of
Reorganization Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and related
disclosure statement.  Voting on the Plan began prior to the
Petition Date, but has not yet concluded.

The Plan comprises (i) the Nuverra Group Plan for all of the
Debtors except for Appalachian Water Services, LLC and Badlands
Power Fuels, LLC (DE); (ii) a separate plan of reorganization for
Appalachian Water Services, LLC and (iii) a separate plan of
reorganization for Badlands Power Fuels, LLC (DE).  The Plan was
developed in accordance with the terms of the Restructuring Support
Agreement, dated as of April 9, 2017, as amended from time to time,
among the Debtors and certain supporting noteholders who hold 100%
of the outstanding principal amount of the claims arising under a
term loan credit agreement, dated April 15, 2016 and approximately
86% in outstanding principal amount of the 12.5%/10% senior secured
notes due 2021 ("Supporting Noteholders").  The Restructuring
Support Agreement obligates the Supporting Noteholders, subject to
certain terms and conditions, to vote to approve the Plan. The
Debtors expect that, with the affirmative vote of the Supporting
Noteholders, each Plan will be accepted by one or more impaired
classes of creditors.

On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed their DIP Motion which was
approved on an interim basis on May 2, 2017.  The Interim DIP Order
approved the Debtors' entry into two DIP financing facilities: (i)
a senior secured DIP revolving credit facility in an aggregate
principal amount of up to $31.5 million ("DIP Revolving Facility")
and (ii) a senior secured DIP term loan facility in an aggregate
principal amount of up to $12.5 million ("DIP Term Loan
Facility").

The De Minimis Assets to be sold in the asset sales constitute
collateral under the Debtors' DIP Facilities, and the Debtors will
apply the proceeds from De Minimis Sales in accordance with the
requirements of their DIP Facilities.  Pursuant to the DIP
Revolving Facility, proceeds of asset sales must be applied to
satisfy amounts owed under the prepetition revolving credit
facility, and, if the prepetition revolving credit facility has
been satisfied in full, to amounts owed under the DIP Revolving
Facility.  The DIP Term Loan Facility has a similar provision, but
it is not applicable in circumstances that give rise to a
prepayment under the prepetition revolving credit facility or DIP
Revolving Facility.  By applying the proceeds of any asset sales to
satisfy amounts outstanding under the prepetition revolving credit
facility or DIP Revolving Facility, the Debtors can increase
borrowing base availability under the DIP Revolving Facility.

Given the monetary value of the De Minimis Assets in relation to
the magnitude of the Debtors' overall operations, and the
contemplated expedited time frame of these Chapter 11 Cases (less
than 60 days), it would not be an efficient use of resources to ask
Court approval each and every time they have an opportunity to sell
De Minimis Assets.  In the exercise of their sound business
judgment, the Debtors have determined that the prompt sale of De
Minimis Assets, without the need for further notice, motions,
hearings and subsequent court approval: (i) is in the best interest
of their stakeholders, (ii) will enable the maximization of value
and efficient sale of De Minimis Assets, (iii) will provide needed
liquidity, and (iv) is consistent with customary procedures
approved by the Court.

Accordingly, the Debtors ask the Court to enter an order
authorizing them to sell the De Minimis Assets in accordance with
the Procedures.  The Debtors believe that the Procedures will
maximize the likelihood that they can effectively and efficiently
negotiate and consummate the sale of De Minimis Assets, while
protecting the interests of creditors.

The Debtors propose to sell the De Minimis Assets for the highest
and best offer received, taking into consideration the exigencies
and circumstances.  If the relief requested is granted, with regard
to De Minimis Sales in any single transaction (excluding
transactions with "insiders," if any, as defined in Section 101 of
the Bankruptcy Code), the Debtors would abide by these procedures:


   a. the Debtors will be authorized to consummate a De Minimis
Sale without further order of the Court or notice to any party
other than Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as administrative agent under the
DIP Revolving Facility, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB as
administrative agent under the DIP Term Loan Facility, the
Supporting Noteholders and the United States Trustee (each of which
will be given two Business Days' notice) if the Debtors determine
in the exercise of their business judgment that such a sale is in
the best interest of their estates;

   b. any such transactions will be deemed final and fully
authorized by the Court and, unless otherwise agreed to by the
proposed purchaser of any De Minimis Assets, all De Minimis Sales
will be free and clear of all Liens, with such Liens attaching only
to the sale proceeds in the same validity, extent and priority as
immediately prior to the transaction; and

   c. good faith purchasers of such assets will be entitled to the
protections of section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code.

In the event that the sale price of a De Minimis Sale exceeds the
limits set forth, the Debtors will ask Court approval of such sale
and provide notice to all appropriate parties in accordance with
the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the Federal
Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure.

The Debtors also ask authority to pay the reasonable and necessary
fees and expenses incurred in the sale or transfer of any De
Minimis Assets, including commission fees to agents, brokers,
auctioneers and liquidators, if any.

The De Minimis Assets would be of little or no use or value to the
Debtors' estates.  To defray any tax, insurance or other additional
costs associated with the De Minimis Assets, and to prevent the
further depreciation of such De Minimis Asset's value, they ask
authorization to consummate sales of the De Minimis Assets in
accordance with the Procedures.  The Debtors have determined in
their sound business judgment that implementing a process to sell
the De Minimis Assets will provide them with the necessary
flexibility during their sales efforts.

As noted, prior to the Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors sold certain
assets that were no longer of use in their operations.  During
these cases, they will continue to evaluate their operations, and
in an effort to maximize efficiency and estate value, may decide to
sell further De Minimis Assets.  The sale of such assets in
accordance with the Procedures will enable the Debtors to avoid or
defray any operational, carrying, storage or other expenses
associated with the De Minimis Assets.  Accordingly, the Debtors
ask the Court to approve the relief sought.

To implement the foregoing successfully, the Debtors ask a waiver
of the 14-day stay of an order authorizing the use, sale, or lease
of property under Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h).

OPTIMA SPECIALTY: PSA Approved; Parent to Chip in $200M in Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
Vince Sullivan, writing for Bankruptcy Law360, reports that a
Delaware bankruptcy court has approved a plan support agreement in
the case of Optima Specialty Steel Inc. that will see the Debtor's
parent company, Optima Acquisitions LLC, contribute $200 million to
the bankrupt estate to satisfy all outstanding claims in full.

The PSA received court approval amid the opposition of the Debtor's
postpetition lenders, Law360 shares.

                About Optima Specialty Steel

Optima Specialty Steel, Inc., and its affiliates filed separate
Chapter 11 bankruptcy petitions on Dec. 15, 2016: Optima Specialty
Steel, Inc. (Bankr. D. Del. 16-12789); Niagara LaSalle Corporation
(Bankr. D. Del. 16-12790); The Corey Steel Company (Bankr. D. Del.
16-12791); KES Acquisition Company (Bankr. D. Del. 16-12792); and
Michigan Seamless Tube LLC (Bankr. D. Del. 16-12793).  The
petitions were signed by Mordechai Korf, chief executive officer.
At the time of filing, the Debtor had assets and liabilities
estimated at $100 million to $500 million each.

Optima Specialty Steel and its affiliates are independent
manufacturers of specialty steel products.  Their manufacturing
facilities are located in the United States, and each of the
companies' operating units have operated in the steel industry for
more than 50 years.  At the time of the bankruptcy filing, the
Debtors collectively employ more than 900 people.

The Debtors engaged Greenberg Traurig, LLP, in Wilmington, DE, as
counsel; Ernst & Young LLP as accountant; Miller Buckfire & Co.,
LLC and its affiliate Stifel, Nicolaus & Co., Inc. as investment
banker; and Garden City Group, LLC as claims and noticing agent.

On Jan. 4, 2017, the U.S. Trustee for Region 3 appointed a
7-member
official unsecured creditors committee in the Debtors' cases.  The
committee hired Squire Patton Boggs (US) LLP as its lead counsel;
Whiteford, Taylor & Preston LLC as its local Delaware counsel; and
FTI Consulting, Inc. as financial advisor.

No request has been made for the appointment of a trustee or
examiner.


OUTER HARBOR: Committee Bid to Extend Challenge Period Denied
-------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Laurie Selber Silverstein entered a bench ruling on May 5,
2017, denying the bid of the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors in the bankruptcy case of Outer Harbor Terminal LLC to
extend the investigation (or challenge) period relating to claims
against the DIP Lenders and their affiliates and related parties
under the Final DIP Order.

"While it may be unfortunate that the Committee was not appointed
earlier, I cannot use that circumstance to re-open an expired
period.  Lenders are entitled to rely on the finality of orders.
The Office of the United States Trustee ensured that parties in
interest had an opportunity to challenge the released claims.  No
party-in-interest did so within the allotted time," the judge
opined.

Nevertheless, the Bankruptcy Court held that the Committee "is
entitled to some Rule 2004 investigation and/or plan discovery."  

The Court made that ruling on a motion brought pursuant to both
Bankruptcy Rule 2004 and the Rule 7000 series of discovery rules
for an order directing the debtor and its insiders to produce
documents, appear at depositions and respond to other discovery
regarding some $25 million in prepetition transfers to the Debtors'
insiders.

The case is unusual as the DIP Lenders' affiliates are also
insiders of the Debtors.

The judge however added, ". . . some discretion must be used in
determining the scope of the investigation necessary to fulfill
that obligation."  The judge urged all parties for a status
conference to be arranged to report on progress.

PEABODY ENERGY: S&P Assigns 'B+' CCR Following Ch. 11 Emergence
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it assigned its 'B+' corporate credit
rating to St. Louis-based Peabody Energy Corp.  The outlook is
stable.

Peabody has emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.  Peabody
has refinanced first-lien pre-petition claims and shed more than $5
billion in other debt.

At the same time, S&P assigned its 'B+' issue-level rating to the
company's senior secured debt, including a $950 million term loan
due 2022, $500 million 6% senior notes due 2022, and $500 million
6.375% senior notes due 2025.  S&P also assigned a '3' recovery
rating to the senior secured debt, indicating meaningful recovery
(50%-70%; rounded estimate: 65%) in the event of a default.

"The stable outlook is based on our assumption that Peabody's
adjusted leverage will be close to 3x over the next year--in line
with the rating," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Chiza
Vitta.  "The company's new capital structure should be considerably
less expensive to service, and excess cash flow sweep requirements
support some debt reduction.  Although met coal prices are falling
from elevated levels, we assume that they will not fall far below
$120/ton for 2017."

S&P could lower the rating if it expected leverage to approach 4x.
S&P views this as unlikely in the short term unless Peabody makes
additional changes to its proposed capital structure.

S&P could raise the rating if it expected Peabody to maintain
adjusted leverage below 3x, along with less variability in
operating results and credit measures.  This could happen as a
result of a more stable coal operating environment.

PETROQUEST ENERGY: Has $4.91M Net Loss in March 31 Quarter
----------------------------------------------------------
Petroquest Energy, Inc. filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing a net loss
available to common stockholders of $4.91 million on $20.77 million
of oil and gas sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017,
compared to a net loss available to common stockholders of $39.13
million on $17.32 million of oil and gas sales for the same period
during the prior year.

As of March 31, 2017, Petroquest had $150.25 million in total
assets, $402.61 million in total liabilities and a total
stockholders' deficit of $252.36 million.

"We have historically financed our acquisition, exploration and
development activities principally through cash flow from
operations, borrowings from banks and other lenders, issuances of
equity and debt securities, joint ventures and sales of assets.
However, our liquidity position has been negatively impacted by the
prolonged decline in commodity prices that began in late 2014.

"In response to lower commodity prices we executed a number of
transactions aimed at preserving liquidity, reducing overall debt
levels and extending debt maturities.  Through these transactions,
which included two debt exchanges, we have eliminated all debt
maturing in 2017 and have reduced total debt 30% from $425 million
at December 31, 2014 to $296 million at March 31, 2017.  In
addition to extending the maturity on the majority of our debt that
was due in 2017, our September 2016 debt exchange permits us to
reduce our cash interest expense on our 2021 PIK Notes from 10%
cash to 1% cash and 9% payment-in-kind for the first three
semi-annual interest payments, which is expected to provide us with
more than $30 million of cash interest savings during 2017 and
2018.  Finally, in October 2016, we entered into a new $50 million
Multidraw Term Loan Agreement maturing in 2020, replacing our prior
bank credit facility, which had no borrowing base on the date of
termination," the Company stated in the report.

At March 31, 2017, the Company had a working capital deficit of
approximately $17.8 million as compared to a working capital
deficit of approximately $37.8 million as of Dec. 31, 2016.  The
increase in working capital is primarily due to the redemption on
March 31, 2017, of its remaining 2017 Notes as discussed in

"Our liquidity may be negatively impacted by federal bonding
requirements related to our properties located on the Outer
Continental Shelf (the "OCS").  To cover the various obligations of
lessees on the OCS, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management
(the"BOEM") and the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement
(the "BSEE") generally require that lessees have substantial net
worth or post bonds or other acceptable assurances that such
obligations will be satisfied.  Because we are not exempt from the
BOEM's supplemental bonding requirements, we engage surety
companies to post the requisite bonds.  Pursuant to the terms of
our surety agreements, we may be required to post collateral at the
surety companies' discretion.  Two of our surety companies
requested collateral be posted to support certain of the bonds
issued on our behalf and to date, we have provided cash deposits
totaling $7.2 million to satisfy these requests. The surety
companies may request additional collateral which could have a
material adverse effect on our liquidity position.  If we fail to
satisfy future requests for collateral, we may be in default under
our agreements with the surety companies, which could cause a
cross-default under the Multidraw Term Loan Agreement and
potentially the indentures governing the 2021 Notes and 2021 PIK
Notes.  In addition, recently updated BOEM financial assurance and
risk management requirements may increase the amount of surety
bonds or other security required to be provided by us."

and natural gas reserves in East Texas, Oklahoma, South Louisiana
and the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico.  PetroQuest's common
stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker PQ.

Petroquest reported a net loss available to common stockholders of
$96.24 million on $66.66 million of oil and gas revenues for the
year ended Dec. 31, 2016, compared to a net loss available to
common stockholders of $299.92 million on $115.96 million of oil
and gas revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2015.

                       *     *     *

PetroQuest Energy carries a 'Caa3' corporate family rating from
Moody's Investors Service.

As reported by the TCR on Oct. 26, 2016, S&P Global Ratings raised
the corporate credit rating on Lafayette, La.-based E&P company
PetroQuest Energy Inc. to 'CCC' from 'SD'. The outlook is negative.
"The upgrade reflects our reassessment of the company's corporate
credit rating following the exchange of the majority of its
outstanding 10% senior unsecured notes due September 2017 at par,"
said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Daniel Krauss.  The negative
outlook reflects the company's current debt leverage levels, which
S&P views to be unsustainable, as well as its less than adequate
liquidity position.

PORTER BANCORP: Reports First Quarter Financial Results
-------------------------------------------------------
Porter Bancorp, Inc. filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing net income
of $1.68 million on $9.22 million of interest income for the three
months ended March 31, 2017, compared to net income of $1.48
million on $9.18 million of interest income for the same period in
2016.

As of March 31, 2017, Porter Bancorp had $942.35 million in total
assets, $906.84 million in total liabilities and $35.50 million in
total stockholders' equity.

The Company said that funds are available from a number of sources,
including the sale of securities in the available for sale
investment portfolio, principal pay-downs on loans and
mortgage-backed securities, customer deposit inflows, and other
wholesale funding.  Historically, the Company also utilized
brokered and wholesale deposits to supplement its funding strategy.
The Company is currently restricted from accepting, renewing, or
rolling-over brokered deposits without the prior receipt of a
waiver on a case-by-case basis from its regulators. At March 31,
2017, the Company had no brokered deposits.

The Company also borrows from the FHLB to supplement its funding
requirements.  At March 31, 2017, the Company had an unused
borrowing capacity with the FHLB of $13.9 million.  Its borrowing
capacity is under a detailed loan listing requirement and is based
on the market value of the underlying pledged loans.

Porter Bancorp also has available on a secured basis federal funds
borrowing lines from a correspondent bank totaling $5.0 million.
Management believes its sources of liquidity are adequate to meet
expected cash needs for the foreseeable future.  However, the
availability of these lines could be affected by its financial
position.  The Company is also subject to FDIC interest rate
restrictions for deposits.  As such, the Company is permitted to
offer up to the "national rate" plus 75 basis points as published
weekly by the FDIC.

Stockholders' equity increased $2.8 million to $35.5 million at
March 31, 2017, compared with $32.7 million at Dec. 31, 2016,
primarily due to current year net income of $1.7 million and an
increase in the fair value of its available for sale securities
portfolio of $1.0 million.

POST HOLDINGS: S&P Assigns 'BB-' Rating on Proposed $2BB Loan
-------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB-' issue-level ratings to Post
Holdings Inc.'s proposed $2 billion senior secured term loan due
2024.  The recovery rating is '1', indicating S&P's expectations
for very high (90% to 100%, rounded value 95%) recovery in the
event of a payment default.  The company intends to use proceeds,
along with cash on hand, to fund the pending Weetabix acquisition
and to tender approximately $1.2 billion of its existing higher
interest bonds, including its 7.75% notes due 2024 and 8% notes due
2025.  S&P will withdraw the ratings on these notes when the
redemptions are complete.

With the expected increase in senior secured debt, the recovery
expectation for the remaining outstanding unsecured debt is lower.
Therefore, S&P has revised its recovery rating on the unsecured
debt to '4' from '3', indicating its expectation for average (30%
to 50%, rounded value 40%) recovery in the event of a payment
default.  The remaining senior unsecured debt includes
$630 million 6% notes due 2022, $1 billion 5.5% notes due 2025,
$1.75 billion 5% notes due 2026, and $750 million 5.75% notes due
2027.  The issue-level ratings on these tranches remain 'B'.

S&P's other ratings on the company, including the 'B' corporate
credit rating and positive outlook, are unaffected by this
transaction.

S&P believes that this transaction is leverage neutral.  Pro forma
for the Weetabix acquisition and the proposed term loan, S&P
estimates the company will have about $6.1 billion in reported debt
outstanding and adjusted pro forma leverage of about 5x.  S&P
estimates Post will maintain debt leverage near 5x because it
anticipates the company will continue to make acquisitions.

Post is a holding company with operating companies that
manufacture, market, and distribute branded and private-label
ready-to-eat (RTE) cereals, snacks, and active nutrition products.
Post has shifted its strategy from a pure-play cereal manufacturer
to a holding company that has diversified its business mix with
several acquisitions.  S&P expects the company will continue to
diversify as it makes additional acquisitions.  Geographic
diversification will remain limited, with more than 80% of pro
forma sales generated in the U.S. and the remainder mostly split
between the U.K. and Canada.  S&P believes Weetabix will further
increase Post's operating scale and add free operating cash flow,
despite an overall category decline in RTE cereals.  In addition,
S&P believes the increased scale supports the company's ongoing
acquisition strategy but that the likelihood of releveraging above
7x is low given the company's increased scale.  S&P believes
additional acquisition opportunities will likely be in the
foodservice, protein-related, active nutrition, and private label
categories, because of the fragmented nature of those categories,
which would provide opportunities for greater synergies.

                        RECOVERY ANALYSIS

Key analytical factors:

Capital structure:

The issuer of all of the company's debt is Post Holdings Inc.  The
company's debt structure consists of:

   -- $800 million revolving credit facility due 2022;
   -- $2 billion senior secured term loan due 2024;
   -- $630 million 6% senior unsecured notes due 2022;
   -- $1 billion 5.5% senior unsecured notes due 2025;
   -- $1.75 billion 5% senior unsecured notes due 2026; and
   -- $750 million 5.75% senior unsecured notes due 2027.

Security and guarantee package:

The senior secured credit facilities are unconditionally guaranteed
by Post's existing and subsequently acquired direct and indirect
domestic subsidiaries, and is secured by security interest in
substantially all of its and its subsidiary guarantors' assets,
including certain material real property.

The issuer of the notes is Post Holdings Inc.  The notes will be
fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis of
the company's existing and future domestic subsidiaries.  The
company's foreign subsidiaries will not guarantee the notes and
account for less than 10% of the company's sales.

Covenants:

There are no financial maintenance covenants under the senior
secured credit facilities.  However, the company will be subject to
a senior secured leverage ratio of 4.25x for each quarter that the
company's revolver borrowings exceed 30% of the total commitment.
S&P do not expect the company to be subject to this covenant over
the next 12 months.

Insolvency regimes:

Post Holdings Inc. is incorporated and headquartered in the U.S. In
the event of an insolvency proceeding, S&P anticipates the company
would file for bankruptcy protection under the auspices of the U.S.
federal bankruptcy court system and would be unlikely to involve
other foreign jurisdictions.

Simulated default assumptions:

S&P's simulated default scenario is driven by strained liquidity
from weak sales and profitability.  This could occur as a result of
heightened competitive pressures, combined with higher commodity
costs and consumer preference for other products, or a major
product recall.  These factors hamper margins and cash flow,
resulting in an inability to meet fixed charges.

   -- Year of default: 2020
   -- EBITDA at emergence: $665.2 million
   -- Implied enterprise value multiple: 7x

The emergence-level EBITDA takes into consideration a 40%
operational adjustment (to reflect some recoupment of sales volume
and cost-cutting efforts that improve margins) on top of the
default-level EBITDA.  The default EBITDA roughly reflects
fixed-charge requirements of about $352.8 million in interest costs
(S&P assumes a higher rate because of default and include
prepetition interest) and $102.4 million in minimal capital
expenditures (capex) assumed at default.  S&P estimates a gross
valuation of $4.6 billion, assuming a 7x EBITDA multiple.  This is
within the range S&P used for some of the company's peers.

Calculation of EBITDA at emergence:

   -- Debt service assumption: $455.2 million (assumed default
      year interest and amortization)
   -- Minimum capex assumption: $102.4 million
   -- Preliminary emergence EBITDA: $475.2 million
   -- Operational adjustment: 40%
   -- Emergence EBITDA: $665.2 million

Simplified waterfall

   -- Emergence EBITDA: $655.6 million
   -- Multiple: 7x
   -- Gross recovery value: $4.6 billion
   -- Net recovery value for waterfall after administrative
      expenses (5%): $4.4 billion
   -- Obligor/nonobligor valuation split: 85%/15%
   -- Collateral value available to secured debt: $4.2 billion
   -- Estimated senior secured claims: $2.7 billion
      -- Recovery range for senior secured debt: 90%-100%; rounded

      estimate: 95%
   -- Remaining value to unsecured claims: $1.7 billion
   -- Estimated unsecured debt claims: $4.2 billion
      -- Recovery range for senior unsecured debt: 30%-50%;
      rounded estimate: 40%

*All debt amounts include six months of prepetition interest.

PRIME ACQUISITION: Marcum LLP Raises Going Concern Doubt
--------------------------------------------------------
Prime Acquisition Corp. filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its annual report on Form 20-F, disclosing a net loss of
$565,144 on $3.12 million of total revenues for the year ended
December 31, 2016, compared to a net loss of $7.56 million on $3.04
million of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The audit report of Marcum LLP states that the Company has incurred
significant recurring operating losses, negative cash flows from
operations and has a working capital deficiency.  The Company is
also dependent on the completion of additional equity and or/debt
financing in order to continue its operations.  These factors raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.

The Company's balance sheet at December 31, 2016, showed total
assets of $36.82 million, total liabilities of $41.58 million, and
a stockholders' deficit of $4.76 million.

A full-text copy of the Company's Form 20-F is available at:

                     http://bit.ly/2q9pU73

Prime Acquisition Corp. is a China-based blank check company formed
to acquire through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset
acquisition, stock purchase or similar business combination, or
control through contractual arrangements, one or more operating
businesses.  The Company's focus is to acquire additional
properties to create a diverse portfolio of commercial real estate
assets, including, primarily, well located office buildings and
industrial/warehouse buildings in Southern Europe, primarily in
Italy, Spain and Greece.



PRINTPACK HOLDINGS: Moody's Hikes CFR to B1; Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service upgraded Printpack Holdings, Inc.'s
Corporate Family rating to B1 from B2 and Probability of Default
rating to B1-PD from B2-PD. Instrument ratings are detailed below.
The ratings outlook is stable.

Moody's took the following actions:

Printpack Holdings, Inc.

- Upgraded Corporate family rating to B1 from B2

- Upgraded Probability of default rating to B1-PD from B2-PD

- Upgraded $275 million 1st Lien Senior Secured Term Loan B
   due 2023 to B1/LGD4 from B2/LGD4

The ratings outlook is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The upgrade of the Corporate Family Rating to B1 from B2 reflects
an improvement in credit metrics as well as an expectation that
management will continue to execute on their operating plan and
maintain conservative financial policies. Credit metrics have
benefitted from productivity initiatives, capacity rationalization
and debt reduction. While volumes may remain sluggish going
forward, credit metrics are expected to remain within the rating
category over the next 12 to 18 months.

The B1 corporate family rating reflects the company's weak
operating margins, high concentration of sales and competitive,
fragmented industry structure. The company also has a largely
commoditized product line, lengthy lags on raw material cost
pass-throughs and lack of cost pass-throughs for costs other than
raw materials.

Strengths in the company's profile include a high percentage of
sales from food packaging, long standing relationships with blue
chip customers and some exposure to faster growing markets.
Additionally, approximately 75% of business, on a dollar weighted
basis, is under contract and a high percentage of business has
contractual cost pass-throughs for raw materials. Currently,
Printpack has some exposure to faster growing markets such as pet
food and medical products, however, both markets account for a
small percentage of sales. The company also spends approximately
1%-2% of sales annually on R&D and new product development.

The rating outlook is stable, reflecting an expectation that free
cash flow will continue to improve as one time charges decline over
the next 12 months and that savings from restructuring initiatives
will support margin improvements.

The rating could be upgraded if Printpack sustainably improves its
credit metrics within the context of a stable operating and
competitive environment, while maintaining adequate liquidity. The
company would also need to improve its contract position and
product mix to more higher margin products and fewer commoditized
products as well as its free cash generation and scale (as measured
by revenue). Specifically, the company would need to maintain debt
to EBITDA below 4.00 times, improve EBITDA to interest expense to
over 5.25 times, and maintain funds from operations to debt above
17.0%.

The ratings could be downgraded if there is deterioration in credit
metrics, liquidity or the competitive and operating environment.
Specifically, the ratings could be downgraded if debt to EBITDA
increased to above 4.5 times, EBITDA to interest expense declined
below 3.5 times, and/or funds from operations to debt declined
below 12.5%.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Packaging
Manufacturers: Metal, Glass, and Plastic Containers published in
September 2015.

Printpack Holdings, Inc., headquartered in Atlanta, GA, is a
manufacturer of flexible and specialty rigid packaging, supplying
nearly all food and many non-food categories. The company
manufactures an array of packaging products, including flexible
rollstock, rigid containers and sheets, bags, labels, and pouches,
serving various end markets. As of the twelve months ended December
31, 2016, Printpack generated approximately $1.3 billion of
revenue.


PRODUCTION RESOURCE: Moody's Lowers Corporate Family Rating to Ca
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded its ratings for Production
Resource Group, Inc., including the company's Corporate Family
Rating (to Ca from Caa2) and Probability of Default Rating (to
Ca-PD/LD from Caa2-PD), and the rating for its senior unsecured
notes (to C from Caa3). The ratings outlook is stable.

The downgrades reflect continued weakness in operating performance
and a recent debt restructuring, in which $210 million of the $377
million senior notes obligation was repaid at a meaningful discount
and certain covenants in the notes indenture were modified and/or
eliminated. Moody's views this transaction as tantamount to a
distressed exchange and has subsequently appended the Probability
of Default Rating with its "/LD" modifier, signaling its
qualification as a limited default under the rating agency's
definition of default, which is intended to capture events whereby
issuers fail to meet debt service obligations outlined in their
original debt agreements. Moody's does not rate the debt in the
company's new capital structure and will be withdrawing its ratings
following the aforementioned indenture amendment, which stipulates
that financial information will no longer be shared with the rating
agency.

The following ratings for Production Resource Group, Inc. have been
downgraded:

Downgrades:

Issuer: Production Resource Group, Inc.

-- Corporate Family Rating, Downgraded to Ca from Caa2

-- Probability of Default Rating, Downgraded to Ca-PD/LD from
    Caa2-PD

-- $168 Million Senior Unsecured Notes due 2019, Downgraded to C
    (LGD5) from Caa3 (LGD5)

Outlook Action:

Issuer: Production Resource Group, Inc.

-- Outlook, Changed to Stable from Negative

RATINGS RATIONALE

Precision Resource Group, Inc.'s Ca CFR reflects Moody's
expectation of rising default risk and expected loss for the
company's creditors given ongoing weakness in operating
performance, both historically and as projected over the forward
period. This is partially evidenced by the recent distressed
exchange and covenant modifications, which are likely of an
insufficient magnitude to fully address what Moody's deems to be a
more fulsome requisite recapitalization of the company with a
meaningful injection of fresh equity. Continued operating losses
have resulted in significant cash outflows accompanied by rising
debt levels. As of FY ending December 2016, PRG the company
reported negative free cash flow in excess of $39 million, despite
a material curtailment in capital investment. Funded debt has
increased and liquidity has remained weak. As such, Moody's views
the current debt structure to be untenable at current operating
levels, and possibly subject to additional restructuring barring a
significant improvement in operating performance.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Services published in October 2016.

Production Resource Group, Inc. is a provider of entertainment
technology solutions to the live event industry. The company
reported $666 million of revenue for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2016.

                      About Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is a self-governing commonwealth in association with
the United States.  The chief of state is the President of the
United States of America.  The head of government is an elected
Governor.  There are two legislative chambers: the House of
Representatives, 51 seats, and the Senate, 27 seats.  The
governor-elect is Ricardo Antonio "Ricky" Rossello Nevares, the
son of former governor Pedro Rossello.

In 2016, the U.S. Congress passed PROMESA, which, among other
things, created the Financial Oversight and Management Board and
imposed an automatic stay on creditor lawsuits against the
government, which expired May 1, 2017.

The members of the oversight board are: (i) Andrew G. Biggs, (ii)
Jose B. Carrion III, (iii) Carlos M. Garcia, (iv) Arthur J.
Gonzalez, (v) Jose R. Gonzalez, (vi) Ana. J. Matosantos, and
(vii) David A. Skeel Jr.

On May 3, 2017, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico filed a petition
for relief under Title III of the Puerto Rico Oversight,
Management, and Economic Stability Act ("PROMESA").  The case is
pending in the United States District Court for the District of
Puerto Rico under case number 17-cv-01578.  A copy of Puerto
Rico's PROMESA petition is available at

         http://bankrupt.com/misc/17-01578-00001.pdf   

On May 5, 2017, the Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation
(COFINA) commenced a case under Title III of PROMESA (D.P.R. Case
No. 17-01599).   Joint administration has been sought for the Title
III cases.

U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts has named U.S. District Judge Laura
Taylor Swain to preside over the Title III cases.

The Oversight Board has hired as advisors, Proskauer Rose LLP and
O'Neill & Borges LLC as legal counsel, McKinsey & Co. as strategic
consultant, Citigroup Global Markets as municipal investment
banker, and Ernst & Young, as financial advisor.

Martin J. Bienenstock, Esq., Scott K. Rutsky, Esq., and Philip M.
Abelson, Esq., of Proskauer Rose LLP and Hermann D. Bauer, Esq.,
at O'Neill & Borges LLC are onboard as attorneys.

PUERTO RICO: COFINA Files Petition; Joint Administration Sought
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Financial Oversight and Management Board for Puerto Rico issued
on May 5, 2017, a restructuring certification pursuant to PROMESA
sections 104(j) and 206 and filed a voluntary petition for relief
for Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation pursuant to PROMESA
section 304(a), commencing a case under title III thereof (D.P.R.
Case No. 17-01599).

COFINA was created, among other things, to raise money for the
Commonwealth in exchange for the Commonwealth's transfer to COFINA
of certain sales and use taxes.

The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (which earlier filed a PROMESA
petition) and COFINA have filed a motion, through the Oversight
Board, as the Debtors' representative pursuant to section 315(b) of
PROMESA, filed a motion, pursuant to PROMESA section 304(g), and
rule 1015(b) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, made
applicable to these cases by PROMESA section 310, for entry of an
order directing the joint administration of the Debtors' Title III
Cases.

"Joint administration of the Title III Cases will save the Debtors
substantial time and expense, because it will remove the need to
prepare, replicate, file, and serve duplicative notices,
applications, and orders in each of the Debtors' cases.  Further,
joint administration will relieve administrative burdens otherwise
placed on the Court as a result of having to enter potentially
duplicative orders and maintaining duplicative files and dockets.
Joint administration of these Title III Cases will therefore
promote judicial economy and efficiencies, reducing delay and
expenses for the Debtors, their creditors, and other interested
parties," Martin J. Bienenstock, Esq., at Proskauer Rose LLP,
explains.

PUERTO RICO: COFINA's Case Summary & List of Creditors
------------------------------------------------------
Debtor: Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation

        c/o Financial Oversight and Management Board for
        Puerto Rico, as Representative of the Debtor
        Jacob Javits Federal Bldg.
        26 Federal Plaza
        Room 2-128, Attn: Jaime El Koury
        New York, NY 10278

Case No.: 17-01579

About the Debtor: COFINA was created, among other things, to raise

                  money for the Commonwealth in exchange for the
                  Commonwealth of Puerto Rico's transfer to COFINA

                  of certain sales and use taxes.

                  On Sept. 30, 2016, COFINA was designated by the
                  Financial Oversight and Management Board for
                  Puerto Rico as a Covered Territorial
                  Instrumentality pursuant to Sec. 101(d)(1)(A) of

                  PROMESA.

                  Title III of PROMESA provides a means for a
                  covered territory (such as the Commonwealth)
                  that has encountered financial difficulty to
                  work with its creditors to adjust its debts.  To
                  that end, certain sections of the United States
                  Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Sec. 101 et seq., are
                  incorporated and made applicable to cases under
                  title III of PROMESA.  During the Title III
                  Case, the Commonwealth will remain in possession
                  and control of its property, and will continue
                  to maintain its functions and provide services
                  for the benefit of the citizens of Puerto Rico.
                  The Commonwealth intends to propose a plan for
                  the adjustment of the Commonwealth's debts.

PUERTO RICO: Proposes Prime Clerk as Claims Agent
-------------------------------------------------
The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the Puerto Rico Sales Tax
Financing Corporation, by and through the Financial Oversight and
Management Board for Puerto Rico, ask the U.S. District Court for
the District of Puerto Rico, to authorize the employment and
payment of Primer Clerk LLC as the official solicitation, notice,
and claims agent in the Title III cases.

According to the Debtors, appointing Prime Clerk as the
solicitation, notice and claims agent in the Title III cases
expedites the distribution of notices and solicitation of votes on
a plan of adjustment, and relieves the office of the Clerk of the
Court of the administrative burden of processing a potentially
overwhelming amount of claims.

Prime Clerk will, to the extent requested by the Oversight Board
and the Debtors:

   (a) prepare and serve required notices and documents in the
Title III Cases in accordance with PROMESA, the Bankruptcy Code,
and the Bankruptcy Rules.

   (b) prepare and file or cause to be filed with the Clerk an
affidavit or certificate of service for all notices, motions,
orders, other pleadings, or documents served within 3 business days
of service.

   (c) maintain a list of all potential creditors and other parties
in interest, maintain a core mailing list of all parties described
in Bankruptcy Rule 2002(i),(j), and (i) and those parties that have
filed a notice of appearance under Bankruptcy Rule 9010; and (iii)
update and make available the foregoing lists upon request by a
party in interest or the Clerk.

   (d) identify and correct any incomplete or incorrect addresses
in any mailing or service lists.

   (e) furnish a notice to all potential creditors of the last date
for filing proofs of claim.

   (f) maintain a post office box or address for the purpose of
receiving claims and returned mail, and process all mail received.

   (g) process all proofs of claim received, including those
received by the Clerk, check said processing for accuracy and
maintain the original proofs of claim in a secure area.

   (h) provide an electronic interface for filing proofs of claim.

   (i) maintain the official claims register for the Debtors on
behalf of the Clerk.

   (j) implement necessary security measures to secure the
completeness and integrity of the Claims Registers and the
safekeeping of the original claims.

   (k) record all transfers of claims and provide any notices of
such transfers as required by Bankruptcy Rule 3001(e).

   (l) relocate, by messenger or overnight delivery, all of the
court-filed proofs of claim to the offices of Prime Clerk, not less
than weekly.

   (m) upon completion of the docketing process for all claims
received to date, turn over to the Clerk a copy of the Claims
Register for the Clerk's review.

   (n) monitor the Court's docket for all notices of appearance,
address changes, and claims-related pleadings and orders filed.

   (o) assist in the dissemination of information to the public and
respond to requests for administrative information regarding these
Title III Cases.

   (p) 30 days before the close of these Title III Cases, to the
extent practicable, request that the Oversight Board, on behalf of
the Debtors, submit to the Court a proposed order dismissing Prime
Clerk as solicitation, notice and claims agent and terminating its
services in such capacity upon completion of its duties and
responsibilities and upon the closing these Title III cases.

   (q) within seven days of notice to Prime Clerk of entry of an
order closing these Title III Cases, provide to the Court the final
version of the Claims Register as of the date immediately before by
the close of the Title III Cases.

   (r) at the close of the Title III Cases, box and transport all
original documents to any location requested by the Clerk's
office.

   (s) assist with the solicitation, balloting and tabulation of
votes and preparation of any related reports, as required in
support of a confirmation of a plan of adjustment.

   (t) prepare an official ballot certification.

   (u) manage and coordinate any distributions pursuant to a plan
of adjustment.

   (v) provide such other processing solicitation balloting and
other administrative services as may be requested from time to time
by the Debtors, the Oversight Board, the Court or the Clerk.

Prime Clerk has agreed to be employed by the Debtors conditioned
upon its ability to work under its customary terms and conditions
of employment, including the proposed compensation arrangements set
for in the Engagement Agreement.

The Debtors have agreed to pay Prime Clerk an advance of $100,000.

PUERTO RICO: Retirees Ask for Own Official Committee
----------------------------------------------------
The Ad Hoc Committee for the Protection of Accrued Retirement
Benefits of Puerto Rico's Public Employees and Retirees is asking
the U.S. District Court for the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico for
entry of an order directing the appointment of an official retiree
committee with respect to the interests of Puerto Rico's public
employees and retirees as holders of accrued pension and other
retirement benefits.

The Ad Hoc Committee also wants the District Court to enter an
order specifically appointing the members of the Ad Hoc Retiree
Committee to serve as the members of the Official Retiree
Committee.

"[T]he size and complexity of this case clearly militate in favor
of creating an Official Retiree Committee to ensure adequate
representation of Retirees.  There are approximate 160,000
public-employment retirees in Puerto Rico and approximately another
160,000 active public employees holdings accrued retirement
benefits.  The claims of these Retirees for pension benefits,
health care and other post-employment benefits are complex and
completely distinct from other types of unsecured claims.  The
claims for pension underfunding alone are estimated at
approximately alone are estimated at approximately $50 billion.  In
light of the size, volume, uniqueness and complexity of Retiree
claims, the appointment of an Official Retiree Committee is
warranted and necessary to provide adequate representation of
Retirees," explains A.J. Bennazar-Zequeira, Esq., at Bennazar,
Garcia & Milian, C.S.P.

"If an unsecured creditors committee is appointed, participation of
Retirees on that committee would not provide adequate
representation of Retirees.  The claims of Retirees will likely be
in direct conflict with those of financial and trade creditors on
such committee, whose claims in total are also in the billions of
dollars.  Thus, an unsecured creditors committee comprising
Retirees along with financial and trade creditors would likely be
rendered dysfunctional and would not serve the representation needs
of Retirees."

"Negotiating with over 300,000 individual creditors is simply
impossible, and any attempt to do so would engender enormous delay
and costs in administering these proceedings.  Moreover, these
individuals generally lack the means to represent themselves
individually in this matter.  Even collectively, as mentioned, the
Ad Hoc Retiree Committee cannot afford to pay legal fees of its
counsel and is receiving legal services at present on a
concessionary basis.  In contrast, an Official Retiree Committee
would be authorized to employee counsel and other professionals
necessary to protecting Retiree interests, with the expenses being
borne by the Debtor, pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Sec. 1103, PROMESA
Sections 316 and 317 (48 U.S.C. Sec. 2176, 2177), and any other
applicable orders of the Court.  Thus, an Official Retiree
Committee able to deploy professionals to analyze issues and appear
at court and in negotiations on behalf of all Retirees,
collectively, is a more effective, efficient and realistic method
of giving voice to Retiree concerns and also provides a centralized
point of contact for the professionals representing the Oversight
Board and Governor Rosello's administration.  For these very
reasons, retiree committees charged with appearing and negotiating
on behalf of retirees are routinely appointed in municipal
bankruptcies.  See In re City of Detroit, Case No. 13-53846 (Bankr.
E.D. Mich.), Appointment of Official Committee of Retirees (Dkt.
No. 566, Aug. 22, 2013); In re City of Stockton, Case No. 12-32118
(Bankr. E.D. Cal.), Appointment of Official Committee of Retirees
(Dkt. No. 846, Apr. 1, 2013); In re City of Vallejo, Case No.
08-26813 (Bankr. E.D. Cal.), Appointment of Official Unsecured
Creditors Committee of Retirees (Dkt. No. 286, Oct. 8, 2008).  In
fact, consistent with this Motion, in In re city of Stockton, a
prepetition ad hoc retiree committee was appointed to serve as the
official retiree committee."

"Also, in this case, many Retirees may struggle to understand
pleadings and reports written in English.  Having an Official
Retiree Committee regularly posting information in Spanish
regarding matters occurring in the Court would provide an important
public information function."

"While Governor Rossello, the Oversight Board, and bondholders have
differed in their views as to what is the appropriate level of cuts
to accrued pension benefits, they have all contemplated such cuts,
and the certified fiscal plan clearly envisions such reductions --
without permitting the effected parties (i.e. the Retirees) to
participate in the negotiations.  As stated, counsel for the Ad Hoc
Retiree Committee attended a meeting with counsel for the Oversight
Board and the Governor in Washington, D.C., and participated in a
public meeting of the Oversight Board.  However, the Committee has
not been invited to participate in any debt-restructuring
negotiations to date.  Not permitting the Retirees to participate
in restructuring negotiations that contemplate cuts to their own
accrued retirement benefits blatantly threatens prejudice to
Retiree interests and is completely antithetical to the holistic
and inclusive approach that is the hallmark of multi-party creditor
restructuring negotiations.  Therefore, even if Title VI-type
negotiations may continue to be pursued under Title III, the time
has come for Retirees to be at the table to protect their
interests.  As creditors owed an estimated aggregate underfunding
claim of approximately $50 billion, the Retirees clearly deserve at
the negotiating table.  If an Official Retiree Committee is
appointed pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Sec. 1102 and 1103, such Committee
would be affirmatively authorized to participate in the
restructuring negotiations."

QUANTUM CORP: Files Conflict Minerals Report for 2016
-----------------------------------------------------
Quantum Corporation has evaluated its current products and
determined that certain products it manufactures or contracts to
manufacture contain tin, tungsten, tantalum and/or gold ("3TG").
Based on the outcome of its due diligence procedures, the Company
has filed a Conflict Minerals Report.

"Following our initial determination that certain of our hardware
products contain components that contain 3TG minerals, Quantum
conducted an RCOI to determine whether such 3TG minerals originated
in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and adjoining countries, as
defined in Form SD (the "Covered Countries").  Our RCOI was based
on a survey of our direct suppliers of parts, components and
assemblies containing conflict minerals.  We have identified over
200 direct suppliers that supply components for our products that
may contain 3TG minerals.  We requested that each of these 200
suppliers complete the EICC GeSI conflict minerals reporting
template.  We do not have a direct relationship with any of the
smelters or refiners of the 3TG materials. Accordingly, we rely on
our suppliers to provide us with information about the source of
conflict minerals contained in the components supplied to us based
on the EICC GeSI conflict minerals reporting template.  Our direct
suppliers are similarly reliant upon information provided by their
suppliers.  Many of the largest suppliers are also SEC registrants
and subject to Rule 13p-1.
Over 80% of our suppliers responded as of 31 Dec 2016.  Based on
those responses, Quantum determined that 3TG minerals present in
certain of its products may have originated in the Covered
Countries and were not from scrap or recycled sources.  Therefore,
in accordance with Rule 13p-1, Quantum proceeded to engage in due
diligence regarding the sources and chain of custody of its 3TG
minerals and has completed a Conflict Minerals Report..."

Quantum claims to be a leading expert in scale-out storage, archive
and data protection, providing solutions for capturing, sharing,
transforming and preserving digital assets over the entire data
lifecycle.  Its customers, ranging from small businesses to major
enterprises, have trusted it to address their most demanding
content workflow challenges.  The Company provides solutions for
storing and protecting information in physical, virtual and cloud
environments that are designed to help customers Be Certain they
have an end-to-end storage foundation to maximize the value of
their data by making it accessible whenever and wherever needed,
offering indefinite retention and reducing total cost and
complexity.  Quantum's primary hardware products include Scalar
automated tape libraries and DXi deduplication disk system.

Quantum hardware products require components that contain tin,
tungsten, tantalum and/or gold minerals.  Accordingly, pursuant to
Rule 13p-1, the Company conducted a reasonable country of origin
inquiry.  Based on our RCOI, Quantum determined that 3TG minerals
present in certain of its products may have originated in the
Democratic Republic of the Congo and adjoining countries and were
not from scrap or recycled sources.  Therefore, in accordance with
Rule 13p-1, Quantum proceeded to engage in due diligence to
determine the sources and chain of custody of its 3TG minerals.

Many of the Company's suppliers were unable to represent to the
Company that 3TG from the entities they listed had actually been
included in components they supplied to Quantum.  In addition, many
processing facilities were not validated as in fact being smelters
or refiners.  The Company has therefore elected to present only the
smelter and refiner names identified by the CFSI in the report.  Of
those smelters that have been identified, 85% have been found to be
CFSI compliant, or Active.  Quantum will continue to encourage
suppliers to utilize only compliant smelters.

Quantum still has smelters in its supply chain that have not been
identified by the CFSI as audited or in the audit process.  The
Company continues to work with its suppliers to only have smelters
that are actively progressing toward Conflict Free Smelter Program
(CFSP) listing.  Following its due diligence process this year, the
Company was unable to reach any definitive conclusions regarding
its products.  However, it expects that its due diligence efforts
will continue to improve and yield more complete information,
particularly as more smelters and refiners participate in third
party audit process.

REGAL ENTERTAINMENT: S&P Assigns 'BB' Rating on $150MM Add-on Loan
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB' issue-level rating and '1'
recovery rating to Knoxville, Tenn.-based Regal Entertainment
Group's proposed $150 million add-on to its senior secured term
loan due 2022.  The '1' recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation
for very high recovery (90%-100%; rounded estimate: 95%) of
principal in the event of a payment default.  The issue-level
rating is two notches higher than S&P's 'B+' corporate credit
rating on the company.  The borrower is Regal Cinemas Corp.

At the same time, the company is seeking to reprice its senior
secured credit facilities to reduce its margin of interest by 50
basis points.  Including the add-on, the repriced facilities will
consist of a $1.1 billion term loan B due 2022 and an $85 million
revolver due 2020.  The transaction should increase leverage by
roughly 0.1x from 4.0x as of May 31, 2017, which will not have a
material impact on S&P's view of the company's credit ratios. Regal
will use the proceeds for general corporate purposes, which could
include tuck-in acquisitions.

S&P's ratings and stable rating outlook on the company are not
affected by the proposed transaction.

RENESOLA LTD: Recurring Losses Raises Going Concern Doubt
---------------------------------------------------------
Renesola Ltd filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
its annual report on Form 20-F, disclosing a net loss of $34.70
million on $929.84 million of total net revenues for the year ended
December 31, 2016, compared to a net loss of $5.07 million on $1.28
billion of total net revenues for the year ended December 31,
2015.

The Company's balance sheet at December 31, 2016, showed total
assets of $1.09 billion, total liabilities of $1.02 billion, and a
stockholders' equity of $66.14 million.

The Company requires a significant amount of cash to fund its
operations.  The Company requires capital to fund any expansion of
its manufacturing capacities and its research and development
activities in order to remain competitive in the solar industry.
Future expansions, changes in market conditions or other
developments will also cause the Company to require additional
funds.  Due to prevailing market conditions and industry practice,
the Company has been providing longer credit terms to a number of
customers (as it has become customary in the industry to do so),
which has had a negative effect on its cash flows.  Such customers
who have high credit worthiness may be granted longer credit terms;
however, the Company does not amend contracts once delivery is
deemed to have occurred.  Moreover, as of December 31, 2016, the
Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $396.9
million.  While the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $37.3
million as of December 31, 2016 and operating cash flow of $27.5
million for the year ended December 31, 2016, it had short-term
bank borrowings of $595.4 million as of December 31, 2016, all due
within one year.

As of December 31, 2016, several factors have raised substantial
doubts about the company's ability to continue as a going concern
for the foreseeable future, including: (i) the Company incurred a
net loss of $34.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, and
(ii) as of December 31, 2016, its current liabilities exceeded its
current assets by $396.9 million.  These factors could adversely
affect the Company's ability to meet its ongoing financing needs as
well as to obtain third party financing, which is subject to a
number of uncertainties, including its future financial condition,
operations and reputation, general market conditions in its
industry and economic, political and other conditions in China and
elsewhere.  For example, weakening global economic conditions and
macroeconomic factors in the PRC, such as credit tightening
policies implemented by the Chinese government, may negatively
impact the Company's ability to obtain financing in a timely manner
or on commercially acceptable terms.

The Company may not be able to refinance its borrowings as they
mature.  In the event that they are unable to obtain extensions of
these borrowings or sufficient alternative financing at reasonable
terms to make repayments, the Company does not expect to be able to
generate sufficient cash from operating activities in 2016 to repay
all of these borrowings, the Company may not be able to repay such
borrowings in full or at all when due.  If the Company were to
default on the repayment of these borrowings, it would not be able
to continue its operations as a going concern.

RESOLUTE ENERGY: S&P Assigns 'B-' CCR; Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'B-' corporate credit rating to
Resolute Energy Corp. (REN).  The rating outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P assigned its 'B-' issue-level rating and '4'
recovery rating to the company's $525 million senior unsecured
notes.  The '4' recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation for
average (30%-50%; rounded estimate: 45%) recovery in the event of a
payment default.

"The corporate credit rating reflects our assessment of REN's
business risk profile as vulnerable, its financial risk profile as
aggressive, and its liquidity as less than adequate, said S&P
Global Ratings credit analyst, David Lagasse.

The rating incorporates REN's limited scale of operations and lack
of geographic diversity; buffered by the benefits from its high
percentage of liquids production (which S&P expects will be
approximately 80%-85% in 2017) and S&P's expectation that REN will
be able to successfully increase average production to 24,000 to
28,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) over the next 12 months while
maintaining moderate debt leverage.  The rating also reflects REN's
exposure to volatile commodity prices and the capital intensity of
the exploration and production (E&P) industry (which can lead to
greater variability in operating and financial performance).

The stable outlook on REN reflects S&P's expectation that the
company will maintain solid financial measures including FFO to
debt above 20% and will manage capital spending to not further
weaken liquidity, particularly if the Aneth sale is delayed or
cancelled.

S&P could lower the corporate credit rating if it expected REN's
FFO to debt to fall meaningfully below 12% for a sustained period,
leading to unsustainable debt leverage or its liquidity weakened
considerably, which would most likely occur if the company's
operational performance declines or it debt finances a large
acquisition without offsetting production and cash flows.

S&P could raise the rating if REN broadens its geographic diversity
and increases its production and reserves to levels more consistent
with 'B' peers while maintaining FFO to debt above 20%.



RESOLUTE ENERGY: Says Q2 Starting Out With 'Impressive Results'
---------------------------------------------------------------
Resolute Energy Corporation reported financial and operating
results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

Rick Betz, Resolute's chief executive officer, said: "In the first
quarter of 2017, Resolute made significant advancements toward
bolstering its position as a leading operator in the core of the
Delaware Basin.  With the addition of a second drilling rig in
January and a dedicated frac spread from our primary completions
vendor, we have significantly increased the pace of our development
operations.  While these accomplishments point toward a very
promising 2017 for Resolute, as we explained in prior
communications, we did not expect to realize the benefits of this
activity in our first quarter results.  Our second quarter,
however, is starting out with impressive results.  Everything we
accomplished in the first quarter has positioned us to deliver the
industry leading performance you have come to expect from
Resolute.

"Resolute also delivered several strategic accomplishments during
the quarter, including the sale of our New Mexico properties, the
commencement of a process to divest our Aneth Field EOR property
and the announcement of a significant Delaware Basin acquisition
that will expand our net acreage in the basin by nearly 30
percent.

"Before highlighting our many operational achievements let me touch
briefly on the actual first quarter production results. Production
for the first quarter of 2017 averaged 19,702 Boe per day, an
increase of 10,686 Boe per day, or 119 percent, from the prior year
first quarter.  On a sequential basis, first quarter production was
essentially flat to fourth quarter 2016 volumes of 19,583 Boe per
day.  Looking more specifically at the Permian Basin, adjusting for
the sale of the New Mexico properties, sequential production from
the Permian Basin would have increased by four percent from 12,939
Boe per day in the fourth quarter of 2016 to 13,444 in the first
quarter of 2017.  Our Permian Basin operations represented 70
percent of total Company production in the first quarter of 2017
compared to 33 percent in the first quarter of 2016.  First quarter
Delaware Basin exit rate production was 12,925 Boe per day, down
approximately ten percent from our fourth quarter exit rate, after
adjusting for the New Mexico sale, reflecting normal production
declines and minimal additions from wells completed late in the
quarter.  Quarterly production was also impacted by vendor delays
and production downtime related to well shut-ins to perform
significant facilities upgrades, weather induced events such as
power interruptions and well interference from nearby completion
operations.

"As expected we have started to realize significant production
gains from newly completed wells and we estimate that for April
2017 our Delaware Basin average production was 15,925 Boe per day,
up 32 percent from March, and our exit rate was 18,400 Boe per day,
which was 42 percent higher than our March exit rate.  We expect
this momentum to continue through the second quarter and the
remainder of the year.  We remain comfortable with our announced
annual production guidance prior to any adjustments for the sale of
our Aneth Field properties or for the addition of production
associated with our pending Delaware Basin acquisition.

"The hard work of our exceptional operations team has put us in the
position to deliver what we expect will be peer-leading results for
full year 2017.  Thus far this year we reached total depth on nine
wells.  These include five mid-length laterals and four long
laterals.  We completed and brought on line eight wells since
January, including five mid-length laterals and three long
laterals.  We significantly increased our development pace with the
addition of a second drilling rig and a dedicated frac spread. This
will reduce cycle times from rig release to first production and
also will help to offset other completion cost pressures as we
minimize mobilization costs and delays between completions.

"At the time of our fourth quarter earnings release we did not have
meaningful new well results to report.  In this release we provide
initial production information on five wells completed since the
first of the year.  These results included three wells in our
Mustang area, which have recorded 24 hour peak IP rates of 2,389,
2,571 and 3,006 Boe per day.  In Appaloosa we have initial 24 hour
peak IP rates on two new wells of 2,870 and 2,906 Boe per day.
These are early stage results and the reported rates may improve.

"An important part of our 2017 drilling program has been to test
the production effects of denser well spacing.  We previously
announced the results of our upper Wolfcamp A spacing test, with
the Uinta 0204H and Boucher 2-3H wells.  Both of these wells
continue to produce above our type curve for mid-length Wolfcamp A
wells.  Our second down-spaced well pair is a test of the upper and
lower Wolfcamp A.  The Renegade L02H and the Renegade U03H have now
established 24 hour peak IP rates of 2,389 and 3,006 Boe per day,
respectively.  These are strong initial rates for the area and on a
cumulative basis both wells are producing above our type curve.
Our third down-spaced well pair tests the combination of the upper
Wolfcamp A and the upper Wolfcamp B.  Completions operations on
these wells, the Pipeworks B05H and the Pipeworks L06H, were
concluded on April 29 and are in the initial stages of flowback.
The Pipeworks B05H is also our first Wolfcamp B well since the
first quarter of 2015 and our first Wolfcamp B well to be completed
using more advanced completion designs.  Performance of this well
will help advance our understanding of the Wolfcamp B reservoir.

"I will close with some comments on our first quarter strategic
initiatives.  In March we announced what we are now calling our
Bronco acquisition, which will add significantly to our net acreage
position in the Delaware Basin.  This transaction is on target to
close on May 15.  In order to accelerate the benefits of the
acquisition, on May 4 fracing operations will begin on the seven
drilled but uncompleted wells acquired.  We expect to have six
operated wells on production by mid-July with the non-operated
seventh well on production by early August.  We anticipate these
wells will contribute significantly to third quarter production.
We continue to evaluate the addition of a third rig to focus on the
Bronco acreage.  A final decision on this will be made once we have
more visibility on the disposition of Aneth Field and on the
outlook for commodity prices.  With regard to the Aneth Field
disposition process, we recently announced the hiring of advisors
for this transaction and we remain on schedule to have a virtual
data room available for potential buyers by the middle of May.

"The closing of the Bronco acquisition will result in a short term
rise in our level of indebtedness on an absolute basis and in
relation to our cash flows.  The interim increase in indebtedness
does not represent a change in philosophy as to the appropriate
level of leverage for the Company.  We believe that we are well
positioned financially to move forward with both the acquisition
and our Delaware Basin development program.  In the near term,
sources of liquidity include our recently increased $225 million
borrowing base, the potential to access the capital markets, or the
ability to draw our existing bridge facility.  Longer term, we
expect the sale of Aneth Field to be a significant deleveraging
event.  We expect to return to our target leverage levels by the
fourth quarter of 2017 or earlier.  In the meantime, we are working
with our bank group to secure a precautionary amendment to ensure
that we remain in compliance with our covenants under our Revolving
Credit Facility during this interim period of increased
indebtedness."

Resolute recorded net income of $1.5 million, or $0.01 per share,
on revenue of $65.2 million during the three months ended March 31,
2017.  Included in net income was $10.8 million of commodity
derivative gains.  This compares to a net loss of $85.3 million, or
$5.65 per share, on revenue of $19.0 million during the three
months ended March 31, 2016.  The 2016 loss included commodity
derivative gains of $3.8 million and a non-cash impairment charge
of $58 million.

During the first quarter of 2017, Resolute generated $28.9 million
of Adjusted EBITDA, or $16.31 per Boe, a 25 percent increase from
the prior year period, during which Resolute generated $23.2
million of Adjusted EBITDA, or $28.22 per Boe.  The increase in
Adjusted EBITDA was the result of increased revenue due to
increased production, partially offset by decreased commodity
derivative gains and an increase in cash-settled incentive award
expense.

Production for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, increased 116
percent to 1,773 MBoe, or 19,702 Boe per day, as compared to 820
MBoe, or 9,016 Boe per day, during the first quarter of 2016.    

Production from the Company's Permian Basin properties increased
more than 350 percent to 13,798 Boe per day, as compared to the
2,961 Boe per day produced in the first quarter of 2016, and
increased two percent from the 13,495 Boe per day produced during
the fourth quarter of 2016.  

First quarter 2017 production from the Company's Aneth Field
properties decreased three percent to 5,904 Boe per day as compared
to the 6,056 Boe per day produced in the first quarter of 2016, and
the 6,086 Boe per day produced during the fourth quarter of 2016.


During the first quarter of 2017 Resolute realized a 39 percent
increase in adjusted revenue (revenue including commodity
derivative settlements), a non-GAAP measure, as compared to the
prior year quarter due to increased production attributable to
positive results from the drilling program in the Delaware Basin
offset by decreased derivative settlement gains.  Adjusted revenue
for the quarter was $65.0 million, including the effect of
commodity derivative settlement losses of $0.3 million.  During the
first quarter of 2016, Resolute had adjusted revenue of $46.7
million, including the effect of commodity derivative settlement
gains of $27.7 million.

For the first quarter of 2017, lease operating expense increased
$4.5 million, or 33 percent, to $18.4 million, or $10.35 per Boe,
as compared to first quarter 2016 LOE of $13.8 million, or $16.84
per Boe.  The decrease in unit operating expense is due to the
significant increase in production.  Production taxes increased by
$3.5 million, or 110 percent, to $6.6 million (ten percent of
revenue) from $3.1 million in 2016 (seventeen percent of revenue).
Conversely, production taxes decreased on a Boe basis to $3.72 per
Boe in 2017 from $3.83 per Boe in 2016.

For the first quarter of 2017, depletion, depreciation,
amortization and accretion expenses increased 55 percent to $16.0
million as compared to the first quarter of 2016 DD&A expenses of
$10.4 million.  Conversely, DD&A expenses decreased on a Boe basis
to $9.04 per Boe in 2017 from $12.63 per Boe in 2016 due primarily
to the significant increase in proved reserve quantities.

Pursuant to full cost accounting rules, the Company performs a
ceiling test each quarter on its proved oil and gas assets.  No
impairment was recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2017.
However, the Company recorded a $58 million non-cash impairment of
the carrying value of our proved oil and gas properties during the
2016 period, as a result of the ceiling test limitation at
March 31, 2016.  

Resolute's general and administrative expenses increased sixteen
percent to $10.4 million during the first quarter of 2017, as
compared to $9.0 million during the same period in 2016.  On a
unit-of-production basis, general and administrative expenses
decreased 46 percent as a result of increased production.
Cash-based general and administrative expense for the first quarter
of 2017 was $7.6 million, or $4.28 per Boe, compared to $6.8
million, or $8.24 per Boe, in the comparable 2016 period.
Share-based compensation expense, a non-cash item, represented $2.8
million for the first quarter of 2017 and $2.2 million for the
first quarter of 2016.    

Due to the substantial increase in the price of Resolute common
stock over the last 9 months, the Company recorded $5.4 million
during the first quarter of 2017 for cash-settled incentive award
expenses as compared to $0.8 million in the first quarter of 2016.
Actual cash payments for the current quarter were $3.6 million as
compared to no payments in the first quarter of 2016.  On a
per-unit basis, cash-settled incentive award expense was $3.06 per
Boe in 2017 as compared to $0.97 per Boe in 2016.  The 2017
increase in expense is a result of the grant of time- and
performance-based restricted cash awards as well as cash-settled
stock appreciation rights under the long-term incentive program,
and the achievement of multiple performance targets that are based
on the Company’s stock price.  The time-based awards will vest
and be expensed ratably over three years from the time of grant.
The performance-based awards and the stock appreciation rights will
vest ratably over three years from the time of grant but their fair
value will be re-measured at each period end over their lives.  

During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, Resolute incurred oil and
gas related capital expenditures of approximately $53.4 million,
excluding proceeds from divestitures of $19.2 million and
capitalized interest of $2.5 million.  These capital investments
were primarily for drilling and completion projects in the Delaware
Basin.

Outstanding indebtedness of $419 million at March 31, 2017,
consisted of $19 million in revolving credit facility debt and $400
million of senior notes, compared to total indebtedness of $528.3
million at March 31, 2016, a decrease of $109.3 million.  During
the first quarter of 2017, we repaid all amounts outstanding on the
Secured Term Loan Facility and entered into the Third Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement with an initial borrowing base of $150
million.  Pursuant to the spring borrowing base redetermination,
our borrowing base was increased to $225 million, effective April
17, 2017.

RIVERBED PARENT: S&P Affirms 'B' CCR & Revises Outlook to Neg.
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B' corporate credit rating on San
Francisco-based Riverbed Parent Inc. and revised its outlook to
negative from stable.

S&P also affirmed the existing issue level ratings of 'B+' on the
first lien credit facility based on a '2' recovery (70%-90%;
rounded estimate: 70%) and 'CCC+' on the senior unsecured notes
based on a '6' recovery (0%-10%; rounded estimate: 0%).

"The outlook revision is based on our expectation that recent
weakness in Riverbed's operating performance, which has caused
leverage to increase to the low-7x area, will continue into the
second half of 2017," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst
Kenneth Fleming.  S&P expects that Riverbed's revenues will recover
later in 2017.  However, the timing and magnitude of the recovery
remains less certain.

The outlook is negative reflecting recent weakness in product
revenue, which has caused leverage to rise to the low-7x area, and
the risk that Riverbed's core WAN-optimization market could see
sustained declines and increasing pricing pressure.  While S&P
currently projects that Riverbed's revenues will recover later in
2017, the ultimate timing and magnitude of the recovery remain less
certain.


RMS TITANIC: Needs More Time to Finalize PSA, File Chapter 11 Plan
------------------------------------------------------------------
RMS Titanic, Inc. and its affiliated Debtors filed an amended third
motion with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of
Florida, seeking for an extension of their exclusive period to file
a plan through  August 1, 2017, and their exclusive period to
solicit acceptances of that plan through October 2, 2017.

The Debtors filed their Third Motion for Extension of Exclusivity
With Consent of Statutory Committees on April 5, 2017, which
requested extension of the plan filing deadline through May 10,
2017, and, the Debtors' exclusive period to gain acceptance of a
filed plan through July 9, 2017.

The Third Exclusivity Motion is currently set for a preliminary
hearing on May 18, 2017.

The Third Exclusivity Motion provides that since the Second
Exclusivity Extension Order, the Debtors have been negotiating what
they hope to be a consensual plan with the two statutory committees
appointed in their case. The Debtors, the Official Committee of
Unsecured Creditors, and the Official Committee of Equity Security
Holders believe that an additional 30-day extension is necessary
and appropriate while they continue to work towards a consensual
plan.

The Debtors seek further extension of the exclusivity so as to
provide the Debtors and the Committees time to file and seek Court
approval of the Plan Support Agreement which the Debtors and
Committees anticipate finalizing in the immediate near future.

The terms of the PSA justify extending the exclusive periods beyond
the dates originally requested in the Third Exclusivity Motion
since the Debtors intends to file a Chapter 11 plan in accordance
with the terms of the PSA. The PSA will contemplate a marketing and
sale process for the Debtors to be consummated through parallel
sale and plan confirmation processes. The PSA will also provide for
a series of milestones, including, among others, a deadline to file
a plan and disclosure statement on terms to be provided in the PSA.


As part of the PSA, both of the Committees will agree not to seek
or support termination or modification of, and will agree to
support and consent to any extension of, the Debtors' exclusive
period for the filing of any plan of reorganization so long as the
PSA is not terminated. Moreover, the PSA will be subject to
termination by the Committees or the Debtor if the Court enters an
order modifying or terminating the Debtors' exclusive right to file
and/or solicit acceptances of a plan of reorganization or
liquidation.

The Debtors submit that both Committees have consented to the
extensions of the exclusivity periods.

Further, the Debtors anticipate filing a motion seeking approval of
a DIP financing agreement of up to $5,000,000 that will sustain
operations and funding of administrative expenses until a plan can
be confirmed.

ROBINSON OUTDOOR: U.S. Trustee Unable to Appoint Committee
----------------------------------------------------------
An official committee of unsecured creditors has not yet been
appointed in the Chapter 11 case of Robinson Outdoor Products, LLC
as of May 10, according to a court docket.

                About Robinson Outdoor Products

Based in Robinson Cannon Falls, Minnesota, Outdoor Products, LLC --
http://www.robinsonoutdoors.com/-- designs and produces hunting
apparel for hunters.

Robinson Outdoor Products filed a Chapter 11 petition (Bankr. D.
Minn. Case No. 17-30904), on March 28, 2017. The petition was
signed by Scott Shultz, president.  

At the time of filing, the Debtor estimated less than $50,000 in
assets and $1 million to $10 million in liabilities.

The case is assigned to Judge William J Fisher.

S&S SCREW: Allowed to Continue Cash Collateral Use Through June 8
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Randal S. Mashburn signed a Sixth Interim Agreed Order,
authorizing S&S Screw Machine Company, LLC, to continue its use of
the cash collateral through June 8, 2017, solely on the terms, for
the purposes, and in the amounts set forth in the Budget.

The Debtor's need to use cash collateral is immediate and critical
considering that the Debtor does not have sufficient available
sources of working capital and financing to enable the Debtor to
administer its Chapter 11 case generally, continue to operate its
business in the normal course, and preserve the value of its estate
for all stakeholders.

Regions Bank asserts a lien on the assets of the Debtor, securing
obligations totaling approximately $3,364,485.  Regions Bank
further asserts that all of the Debtor's cash and cash equivalents,
are part of the collateral of Regions Bank. The Internal Revenue
Service also has a tax lien in the alleged amount of $2,209,090,
which claim is subordinate to the Regions Loan and is undersecured
or unsecured.

Regions Bank and the IRS are granted replacement liens, which will
attach to the same extent and with the same priority as enjoyed
prior to the Petition Date, to the extent of any diminution in
value of the collateral and cash collateral in all of the Debtor's
postpetition assets of the same kind and description as the
collateral. Such adequate protection liens will be supplemental to
the security interest which Regions Bank possesses pursuant to its
Loan Documents, and the IRS possesses pursuant to its tax lien.

Judge Mashburn directed the Debtor to pay Regions Bank $20,000 per
month as additional adequate protection, which monthly payment will
be applied to the secured claim of Regions Bank. Judge Mashburn,
however, ordered any party in interest objecting to the monthly
payment to Regions Bank to file a written objection with the Court
by no later than June 1, 2017.

The Debtor is also directed to maintain all necessary insurance for
its business and assets, in accordance with the obligations under
the Regions Loan and as may be required under any applicable
operating guidelines of the U.S. Trustee, naming Regions Bank as
loss payees and additional insureds with respect thereto.

The final hearing to consider approval of the Debtor's continued
use of cash collateral, as well as to determine the necessity of
the monthly payment to Regions Bank, is scheduled for June 8, 2017
at 9:30 a.m.

SEADRILL PARTNERS: PwC LLP Raises Going Concern Doubt
-----------------------------------------------------
Seadrill Partners LLC filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its annual report on Form 20-F, disclosing a net income
of $545.7 million on $1.60 billion of total operating revenues for
the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to a net income of
$488.4 million on $1.74 billion of total operating revenues for the
year ended in 2015.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in Uxbridge, United Kingdom, states that
the Company has cross default clauses in existing financing
agreements which cause near term liquidity constraints in the event
Seadrill Limited is unable to implement a restructuring plan by
July 31, 2017.  The existence of the cross default clauses and
uncertainty of the restructuring raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company's balance sheet at December 31, 2016, showed total
assets of $6.78 billion, total current liabilities of $665.4
million, total non-current liabilities of $3.58 billion, and a
total stockholders' equity of $2.53 billion.

SELECT MEDICAL: S&P Affirms 'B+' CCR & Revises Outlook to Stable
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B+' corporate credit rating and
issue-level ratings on Select Medical Corp. and revised the outlook
to stable from negative.

"The outlook revision reflects our view that Select now has the
ability to meet our base-case expectations of maintaining stable
EBITDA margins of about 17%, generating good free cash flow and
reducing debt leverage to below 5x by fiscal year-end 2017," said
S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Elan Nat.

This is supported by Select's resilience in adapting to the new
reimbursement environment that went into effect in 2016, when
reimbursement of LTAC services at the attractive LTAC-specific rate
narrowed to patients meeting more stringent criteria.  Select has
demonstrated success with its strategy to accept only
criteria-eligible patients.  Its compliant patient base was about
100% as of the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

In October 2015 Medicare introduced new patient criteria with
tighter eligibility standards for reimbursement of LTAC services at
the higher LTAC-specific rate, with a second phase starting late
2017.  Although S&P expects this to have a significant adverse
impact on the LTAC industry, it expects Select to continue to fare
materially better than smaller peers because of its ability to
capture above-average acuity patients, as well as the company's
reputation and strong referral relationships. Additionally, the
company pursued various mitigating strategies, including closing
several LTAC facilities that were going to be unprofitable under
the new patient criteria and swapping a handful of LTAC-facilities
with those of Kindred Healthcare Inc. (B+/Stable/--) in differing
geographies that allow Select to consolidate operations into its
existing joint venture partnerships.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectations for Select to
generate stable EBITDA margins and good free cash flow over the
next two years.  Given its recent track record of capturing
higher-acuity patients that remain compliant under new patient
criteria, S&P believes the company will continue to effectively
manage its LTAC business, such that reimbursement pressures
presented by the tighter eligibility standards for the attractive
LTAC reimbursement rate will largely be mitigated.

S&P could lower its rating if weaker-than-expected patient volume,
additional cuts to reimbursement, or increased operating costs
result in a material deterioration in EBITDA margins and subsequent
decline in free cash flow generation.  Under such a scenario, S&P
would expect EBITDA margin contraction of about 320 basis points,
which would result in Select's free cash flow generation to fall
below $100 million.

While unlikely over the next year, S&P could raise the rating if it
become certain the company will maintain leverage below 4x on a
sustained basis, either by limiting revenue loss in its LTAC
business, materially improving EBITDA margins, or if Select pays
down about $800 million in debt.

SMART MODULAR: Moody's Puts Caa1 CFR Under Review for Upgrade
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service placed all of the credit ratings of SMART
Modular Technologies, Inc., including the Caa1 Corporate Family
Rating ("CFR"), under review for upgrade following the announcement
that SMART's parent company, SMART Global Holdings, Inc. plans for
an initial public offering of equity, with a portion of the
proceeds to be used for debt repayment. Moody's also assigned a B2
rating to the Senior Secured Revolver, which is also under review
for upgrade.

The review will focus on the specific plans for debt repayment. If
SMART repays a portion of the Senior Secured First Lien Term Loan
due 2019 ("Term Loan"), such that leverage is reduced by at least
one turn of debt to EBITDA, Moody's would expects to raise the CFR
by one-notch to B3. To the extent that SMART refinances the Term
Loan, there could be further upward ratings pressure, since the
Term Loan carries a high interest rate and contains certain
restrictive terms, limiting financial flexibility. The Term Loan
carries an interest rate of 9.25%, increasing to 10% on November
29, 2017 if the Term Loan remains outstanding. Moreover, SMART is
required to make quarterly principal payments on the Term Loan of
$3.875 million and must use any balance sheet cash in excess of $25
million for additional Term Loan repayment.

The Caa1 CFR reflects the leverage, which at about 3.7x debt to
EBITDA (latest twelve months ended February 24, 2017, Moody's
adjusted), is high given the highly cyclical markets in which SMART
competes, the weak, though improving, Brazilian economy and Moody's
expectation that SMART will generate only modest, though
increasing, FCF over the next 6 to 12 months. The rating also
reflects the cyclical nature of SMART's end markets, which results
in revenue and FCF volatility, and SMART's modest revenue scale
relative to the large global competitors in the DRAM memory module
business. Customer concentration, with the top three customers
accounting for 44% of revenues, is an additional constraint on the
rating.

Still, Moody's expects that SMART will generate increasing FCF as
end market demand for computer equipment strengthens in Brazil and
increases in Brazilian local content tax incentives increases
demand for SMART's mobile memory used in smartphones sold in
Brazil. Moreover, SMART benefits from a leading market position in
the Brazilian DRAM memory market. Sales of memory in Brazil
accounts for about 45% of total revenues. SMART's market position
is supported by the Brazilian government's local-content tax
incentives, which encourage local semiconductor manufacturing and
R&D investments. This gives SMART an advantage over global
competitors that lack local integrated circuit packaging and memory
module manufacturing operations. SMART's specialty memory business
adds stability to the revenue base, as this business provides
products for markets that tend to have longer product life cycles
based on trailing-edge technologies, and thus provides SMART with a
base of low-growth, though consistent, revenues and FCF.

The Revolver and Term Loan are guaranteed by SMART and certain
subsidiaries (excluding SMART's Malaysian subsidiary), including
the subsidiaries in Brazil that are engaged in the memory business.
The Revolver and Term Loan are secured by a first-lien pledge on
the assets of the guarantors and a pledge of the equity interest in
SMART and certain subsidiaries, including SMART's Malaysian
subsidiary.

While the lenders benefit from a first priority security interest
in the assets of its Brazilian operating subsidiaries, enforcing
guarantees and establishing claims over non-US collateral could be
time consuming and challenging, which could result in the erosion
in value of the realized collateral. To reflect this anticipated
challenge in enforcing claims in Brazil, and the exclusion of the
Malaysian subsidiary from the pool of guarantors, the ratings of
the Revolver and Term Loan reflect a one-notch downward override
from the LGD model implied rating.

Moody's rates the Revolver B2 and the Term Loan Caa1, since the
credit agreement stipulates that proceeds from the collateral will
be used first to repay the Revolver borrowings before any payments
are made on the Term Loan. This effectively renders the Term Loan
subordinated to the Revolver in the capital structure, although
both the Revolver and the Term Loan are secured by a first-lien
pledge on the same collateral. The company's overseas restricted
subsidiaries provide a negative pledge precluding them from raising
a material amount of debt at the overseas operations.

SOUTHWESTERN ENERGY: S&P Affirms 'BB-' CCR; Outlook Positive
------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it affirmed its 'BB-' corporate credit
rating on Houston-based exploration and production (E&P) company
Southwestern Energy Co. and revised the outlook to positive from
stable.

The issue-level rating on the company's secured term loan remains
'BB+' with a '1' recovery rating, indicating S&P's expectation of
very high (90% to 100%; estimated recovery: 95%) recovery in the
event of a payment default.  The issue-level rating on the
company's unsecured debt remains 'BB-' with a '3' recovery rating,
indicating S&P's expectation of meaningful (50% to 70%; estimated
recovery: 65%, capped) recovery in the event of a payment default.

"The outlook revision reflects our assessment that Southwestern's
increasing natural gas production and higher gas price realizations
will result in improved leverage measures." said S&P Global Ratings
credit analyst Ben Tsocanos.  The company is addressing upcoming
debt maturities, which S&P views as favorable for credit quality.
Southwestern is nearly doubling its capital budget this year,
focusing on drilling its properties in northeast and southwest
Appalachia.  S&P expects the company to increase its production
about 3% this year after dropping in 2016.  While spending will
likely exceed internally generated cash flow this year, the company
plans to fund the shortfall with a portion of its cash on hand.
Southwestern issued equity and sold assets last year, and ended the
year with $1.4 billion in cash.  S&P also notes that negative gas
price differentials that can significantly affect profitability for
producers in Appalachia have moderated somewhat recently.  If the
company meets the high end of its production guidance and
differentials improve, S&P sees potential for Southwestern to meet
financial measures consistent with a higher rating.  S&P also views
refinancing upcoming maturities as a requirement for a higher
rating.

Southwestern's satisfactory business risk profile is characterized
by its midsize proven reserve and large production base,
established infrastructure, and low operating costs structure,
offset by limited geographic and product diversity and high
exposure to natural gas prices, which S&P believes will remain weak
relative to crude oil prices for the next few years. Southwestern's
year-end 2016 proved reserves totaled 5.2 trillion cubic feet
equivalent (tcfe): 93% natural gas and about 99% proved developed.
Year-end proved reserves were down about 16% in comparison to
year-end 2015 as a result of a write-down of its proved undeveloped
reserves, primarily due to lower trailing-12-month natural gas
prices.  The dry gas Fayetteville Shale in Arkansas accounted for
57% of year-end 2016 reserves.  Northeast Appalachia (Pennsylvania)
accounted for 30% of total proved reserves, and southwest
Appalachia (West Virginia and Pennsylvania) about 13%.

The positive outlook reflects the potential that credit measures
could improve to levels consistent with higher ratings in the next
year if Southwestern continues to increase production and contain
costs while addressing its debt maturities.

S&P could revise the outlook to stable if it no longer saw a
company's potential for credit measures to improve to levels
consistent with higher ratings over the next year.  This would most
likely occur if the company does not meet production growth
expectations, or if natural gas prices or differentials are weaker
than S&P currently envisions.  S&P could also revise the outlook if
Southwestern does not make progress refinancing its upcoming debt
maturities.

S&P could raise the rating if the company is able to continue
improving its credit measures, including FFO to debt consistently
above 20%, and refinances its upcoming debt maturities.  This could
occur if Southwestern meets the high end of its production growth
guidance while containing costs and its natural gas realizations
remain constructive.

have filed objections to the Company's Chapter 11 plan disclosure

The numerous filings came after a more formal objection filed by an

committee also said the disclosure statement provides an
"ambiguous" description of the plan itself, Law360 adds.

The committee is represented by Ancela R. Nastasi, Marshall E.
Tracht and Moshie Solomon of Nastasi Partners PLLC.

SURGICAL CARE: S&P Raises CCR to 'BB+', Subsequently Withdrawn
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings raised its corporate credit rating on Surgical
Care Affiliates Inc. to 'BB+' from 'B+' and removed the rating from
CreditWatch, where it was placed with positive implications on Jan.
9, 2017.  The outlook is stable.

S&P is subsequently withdrawing all of its ratings on the company
because all of Surgical Care's debt has been redeemed.

"The upgrade reflects UnitedHealth's acquisition of the company and
our assessment of Surgical Care as a strategically important
subsidiary of UnitedHealth," said S&P Global Ratings credit analyst
Matthew O'Neill.

S&P's assessment reflects Surgical Care's importance as part of the
consolidated entity.  S&P views Surgical Care as important to the
group's long-term strategy and that it is unlikely to be sold in
the near term.  S&P also believes that UnitedHealth would provide
support to Surgical Care over the long term based on its inclusion
in UnitedHealth's Optum business.  S&P subsequently withdrew all of
its ratings on the company because all of Surgical Care's debt has
been redeemed.


SYNERGY RESOURCES: S&P Lowers Rating on Sr. Unsec. Notes to 'B-'
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its issue-level rating on U.S.–based
oil and gas exploration and production company Synergy Resources
Corp.'s (d/b/a SRC Energy Inc.) senior unsecured notes to 'B-' from
'B', and revised the recovery rating to '4' from '2'.  The '4'
recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation of average (30%-50%;
rounded estimate: 35%) recovery for creditors in the event of a
payment default.

In April 2017, the company's lenders increased the borrowing base
to $225 million from $160 million on Synergy's reserve-based loan
facility.  However, the company chose to limit its elected
commitments to $210 million.  As of April 30, 2017, the outstanding
principal balance was $25 million on the revolving credit facility.
The year-end 2016 PV-10 value of the company's proved reserves,
using S&P's recovery price deck assumptions, has remained near flat
from midyear 2016.  The next semiannual redetermination is
scheduled for November 2017.

                         RECOVERY ANALYSIS

   -- S&P's recovery analysis incorporates the company's $210
      million commitments on its senior secured reserve-based loan

      facility, which S&P assumes will be fully drawn at default,
      less $0.5 million in letters of credit.

   -- S&P's simulated default scenario contemplates a default in
      2018 due to a sustained period of weak crude oil and natural

      gas prices, consistent with past defaults in this sector.

   -- S&P bases its valuation on a company-provided year-end 2016
      PV-10, based on proved reserves, using S&P's recovery price
      deck assumptions of $50 per barrel for West Texas
      Intermediate crude oil and $3 per mmBtu for Henry Hub
      natural gas.

   -- S&P caps the value pertaining to proved undeveloped reserves

      so that they represent no more than 25% of the proved
      reserves value, given the heightened uncertainty about the
      cost of extracting these reserves.

Simulated default assumptions:
   -- Simulated year of default: 2018

Simplified waterfall:
   -- Net enterprise value (after 5% administrative costs):
      $249 million
       ---------------------------------------------------
   -- Secured claims: $217 million
   -- Recovery expectations: Not applicable
   -- Total value available to unsecured claims: $32 million
   -- Senior unsecured claims: $84 million
   -- Recovery expectations: 30%-50% (rounded estimate: 35%)

Note: All debt amounts include six months of prepetition interest.

UNITED ROAD: Asks Court to Dismiss Chapter 11 Case
--------------------------------------------------
United Road Towing, Inc., and affiliates ask the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Delaware to dismiss their Chapter 11
cases.

A hearing to consider the Debtors' request will be held on May 31,
2017, at 11:00 a.m. (ET).  Objections to the request must be filed
by May 24, 2017, at 4:00 p.m. (ET).

The Debtors worked diligently to sell their business as a going
concern and through the sale of substantially all assets to
prepetition lender Medley Capital Corp. successfully preserved
jobs, maintained business relationships, and maximized recovery to
the Debtors' secured creditors.  This successful result was
achieved through a sale process and a series of related
transactions approved by the Court pursuant to the sale court
order.  The sale resulted in satisfaction in full of the Debtors'
DIP financing and the payment or assumption of administrative
expenses accruing from post-petition operations, claims under
Section 503(b)(9) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, and pre-petition
priority tax claims, based on the Debtors' estimates of the
pre-petition amounts.  Additionally, the Purchaser has agreed to
assume certain amounts of pre-petition general unsecured claims,
resulting in a modest recovery to the holders of those claims and
to provide other value to unsecured creditors in the form of cure
amounts paid on assumed contracts and the purchase and waiver of
avoidance actions.

After the closing, the only funds remaining in the estates are the
wind-down funds provided for in the Sale which remain the cash
collateral of the Debtors' prepetition term agent.  Therefore, the
Debtors seek the dismissal of these Chapter 11 cases and certain
related relief to effectuate the dismissal and the orderly winddown
of the Debtors' affairs.

A copy of the Debtors' request is available at:

            http://bankrupt.com/misc/deb17-10249-337.pdf

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on May 10, 2017, the

UNITED ROAD: Completes 363 Sale Process to URT Acquisition
----------------------------------------------------------
United Road Towing, Inc. and its affiliated debtors confirmed on
May 11, 2017, that it completed the sale of its assets on May 2,
2017, in accordance with Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, to URT
Acquisition Holdings Corporation, as a designee of Medley Capital
Corporation.

URT Holdings' bid was selected following a competitive sale
process.  The bid was valued at approximately $39,988,976,
comprised of cash, assumed liabilities and $16,000,000 in the form
of an offset against the obligations of the Company to Medley.

The Company recently faced liquidity challenges and a potentially
significant adverse judgment resulting from an unfavorable court
ruling.  Management determined a bankruptcy process was the best
course to restructure the Company's balance sheet and secure its
financial position for the future, and to maximize value for
stakeholders.

The sale effectuates the necessary changes to allow the Company to
deleverage its balance sheet and to continue to operate under the
ownership of URT Holdings, including continuing to serve customers,
vendors, and employees.

"I am grateful for the patience, dedication and commitment of our
employees, vendors, and customers in assisting the Company through
this sale process, and look forward to maintaining these valuable
relationships for a long time to come," said Jerry Corcoran, the
Company's CEO.

URT Holdings has retained all the senior management of the Company
following the sale, and services to customers have and will
continue uninterrupted by the process.

Court filings and other information related to the restructuring
proceedings are available at a website administered by the
Company's claims agent, Rust Consulting/Omni Bankruptcy, at

petition was signed by John N. Penrod, chairman and CEO.  

The case is assigned to Judge Jeff Bohm.

At the time of the filing, the Debtor disclosed $2.67 million in

US DATAWORKS: Wants to Obtain $150K Financing, Use Cash Collateral
------------------------------------------------------------------
US Dataworks, Inc., seeks authority from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of Texas to enter into a secured
debtor-in-possession term loan facility with The Bankers Bank in an
aggregate principal amount of up to $150,000 upon the terms and
conditions substantially similar to the TBB Note, and to use the
cash collateral of The Bankers Bank and the prepetition unperfected
secured creditors.

The Debtor has prepared a 17-week Budget for the week ending May 5,
2017 through August 25, 2017, which reflects total operating
disbursements of approximately $693,440.

The Debtor's Prepetition Unperfected Secured Creditors are:

   (1) Ivan and Jackie Carlson, who are owed an approximate
outstanding balance of $157,000, as of the Petition Date, secured
by most, if not all, of the Debtor's assets;

   (2) Richard A. Reck, who is owed an outstanding balance of
approximately $52,333, as of the Petition Date;

   (3) Frances F. Ramey, as successor in interest to Charles E.
Ramey, a former director of the Debtor, who is owed an outstanding
balance of approximately $795,200,  as of the Petition Date; and

   (4) John L. Nicholson, M.D., who is owed an outstanding balance
of approximately $2,057,000, as of the Petition Date.  However, the
2015 Nicholson Agreement expressly acknowledges and reaffirms the
agreements to subordinate the Debtor's obligations to Nicholson to
certain of the Debtor's other obligations, including, but not
limited to, the Debtor's obligations to Carlson, Kimberly R. Rice,
and Reck.

Each of the Unperfected Prepetition Secured Parties has executed a
debt subordination agreement, thereby agreeing to subordinate the
Debtor's obligations to them to those owed to The Bankers Bank and
have therefore consented to priming liens being granted to The
Bankers Bank.  Accordingly, The Bankers Bank maintains a first lien
priority position with respect to all of the Debtor's assets.  In
addition, The Bankers Bank and each of the Unperfected Prepetition
Secured Parties has consented to the use of cash collateral.

In late November of 2016, the Debtor entered into an asset purchase
agreement with The Bankers Bank, which contemplated The Bankers
Bank's purchase of the Debtor's assets.  In order to facilitate the
Debtor's ability to maintain business operations during the period
leading up to the filing of its chapter 11 bankruptcy case, The
Bankers Bank has agreed to extend a loan to the Debtor for the
operating capital.

Prior to the Petition Date, The Bankers Bank has advanced up to
$550,000 of the face value of the TBB Note with the understanding
that the Debtor would seek authority from the Bankruptcy Court to
obtain debtor-in-possession financing with respect to any further
advances by The Bankers Bank, which would be secured by
postpetition priority priming liens against all of the Debtor's
property.

Among other things, the key provisions the proposed financing are
as follows:

   A. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the DIP Facility will
generally be used:
          
      (a) to finance working capital needs and general corporate
purposes of the Debtor, all in accordance with the applicable
Budget, subject to certain conditions and expenditure variances;
and

      (b) to pay the fees, costs and expenses incurred by the
Debtor in connection with the Case.

   B. Final Maturity. The DIP Facility will mature on the earliest
of (i) July 31, 2017 or (ii) the closing of a sale of substantially
all of the Debtor's assets.

   C. Interest Rate. The interest rate under the DIP Facility will
be 6.00% per annum.

   D. Security and Priority. All DIP Obligations will be entitled,
subject only to the Carveout, to the following claims and liens as
follows:

      (a) the DIP Liens will be secured by a perfected first
priority lien on all DIP Collateral that is not subject to valid,
perfected, and nonavoidable liens in existence as of the Petition
Date or to valid liens in existence as of the Petition Date that
are subsequently perfected as permitted by the Bankruptcy Code; and


      (b) the DIP Liens will be secured by a perfected first
priority, senior priming lien on the DIP Collateral that secures
the Perfected Secured Obligations and the Subordinated Debt, which
senior priming liens in favor will also prime any liens granted
after the Petition Date to provide adequate protection in respect
of any of the Primed Liens.

   E. The Carve-Out will not exceed $100,000 unless The Bankers
Bank consents in writing to an increased amount.  The Carve-Out
will mean:

      (a) all fees required to be paid pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
Section 1930 and

      (b) in the event of the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, the payment of allowed and unpaid
professional fees and disbursements incurred by the Debtor and any
Statutory Committee.

The Debtor believes that the proposed financing and the use of cash
collateral will enable the Debtor and its stakeholders to implement
an orderly reorganization through its chapter 11 bankruptcy case.
The proposed financing will also allow the Debtor to meet some of
its immediate cash needs for operations generally as well as
provide funding to keep current projects alive and will provide the
Debtor with adequate liquidity through its reorganization process
thereby preserving its going concern value for the benefit of its
Estate.

The proposed sale of the Debtor's assets for $1,790,000 far exceeds
the amount of the proposed DIP Facility and the Perfected Secured
Obligations combined. Thus, a sizable, approximately $1,574,743,
cash cushion exists with respect to the prepetition advances The
Bankers Bank extended under the terms of the TBB Note and TBB
Security Agreement.

Additionally, the Debtor will provide to The Bankers Bank
continuing valid, binding, enforceable, and automatically and
properly perfected postpetition security interests in and liens on
the DIP Collateral, subordinate only to the Carve-Out, to which The
Bankers Bank has consented, with respect to the Perfected Secured
Obligations, as adequate protection against any diminution in value
the value of The Bankers Bank's interests in the Prepetition
Collateral.

VINCE HOLDING: PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP Casts Going Concern Doubt
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Vince Holding Corp. filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its annual report on Form 10-K, disclosing a net loss of
$162.66 million on $268.20 million of net sales for the fiscal year
ended January 30, 2016, compared to a net income of $5.10 million
on $302.46 million of net sales for the fiscal year ended in 2015.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP states that the Company has determined
there is risk of future non-compliance with its debt covenant that
raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern.

The Company's balance sheet at January 28, 2017, showed total
assets of $239.48 million, total liabilities of $225.50 million,
and a stockholders' deficit of $13.98 million.

VISTA OUTDOOR: S&P Lowers CCR to 'BB' on Weaker Outlook for 2018
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on
Farmington, Utah-based Vista Outdoor Inc. to 'BB' from 'BB+'.  The
outlook is stable.

S&P lowered its issue-level rating on the company's $350 million
senior unsecured notes due 2023 to 'BB' from 'BB+'.  The '3'
recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation of meaningful (50%-70%,
rounded estimate 60%) recovery in the event of a payment default.
S&P also affirmed its issue-level rating on the $640 million term
loan A and $400 million revolver due in 2021 at
'BBB-'.  The recovery ratings remains '1', indicating S&P's
expectation for very high (90%-100%, rounded estimate 95%) recovery
in the event of a payment default.

As of the year ended March 31, 2017, S&P estimates that the company
had $1.1 billion in adjusted debt outstanding.

"The downgrade reflects our expectation that operating performance
will remain weak during the next 12 months, as FOCF has declined
almost 80% in fiscal 2017, limiting the company's ability to use
cash flow to pay down revolving borrowings, resulting in debt
leverage over 3x for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017," said
S&P Global Ratings credit analyst Stephanie Harter.  The company
underperformed its guidance for this period, primarily because of a
drop in organic sales in its outdoor products segment, largely due
to increased promotional activity in a weak retail and wholesale
environment that is likely to remain for at least two more fiscal
quarters.  In addition, the shooting sports segment experienced a
greater slowdown that began in the third quarter.  As a result, the
company retains excess ammunition inventory.  The industry has
experienced a drop in ammunition sales since the change in the U.S.
administration, with stockpiling occurring during the past several
years.  It is unclear when the market correction will cycle
through.  However, the company's guidance of mid-single-digit
revenue decline and lower earnings in fiscal 2018 indicates that
the inventory overhang will continue through fiscal 2018, resulting
in credit protection measures that support a lower rating.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectation that Vista will focus
on restoring cash flows through inventory management to use cash
flow to pay down the revolver balance in order to maintain debt
leverage below 4x.

S&P could consider lowering the ratings if leverage increases to
and remains at over 4x.  S&P believes this could occur if the
demand for ammunition continues to shrink and the company is unable
to sell its excess inventory, or if demand for hunting and shooting
accessories drops, or if competition from alternative channels
escalates.  S&P could also lower the ratings if the company
demonstrates a more aggressive financial policy and makes a
debt-funded acquisition with minimal EBITDA contribution, or if it
unexpectedly adopts a more shareholder-friendly financial policy,
despite its already elevated debt leverage levels.

Although unlikely over the next year, S&P could consider raising
the ratings if the company successfully restores its profitability
and cash flows to the point it can lower debt levels, resulting in
debt leverage sustained at below 3x.  S&P believes the company
would have to generate more than $200 million in free operating
cash flow and pay down its revolver to achieve this, assuming
EBITDA does not decline further.  Based on S&P's current forecast,
it do not anticipate this improvement until fiscal 2019 or later.


W&T OFFSHORE: Posts $24.3 Million Net Income for First Quarter
--------------------------------------------------------------
W&T Offshore, Inc., filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing net income
of $24.29 million on $124.4 million of revenues for the three
months ended March 31, 2017, compared to a net loss of $190.51
million on $77.71 million of revenues for the three months ended
March 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2017, W&T Offshore had $854.5 million in total
assets, $1.48 billion in total liabilities and a total
shareholders' deficit of $632.8 million.

Some of the key items for the first quarter of 2017 and subsequent
period include:

  * The Company is in final stages of resolving a matter with the
    BOEM that began over a year ago with its demand that W&T
    secure financial assurances (such as supplemental bonding) in
    the aggregate of $260.8 million.  The Company recently
    received a letter from the BOEM that indicated that in order
    for the BOEM to rescind the order, the Company must first      

    satisfy its financial assurance requirement related to "sole
    liability" properties.  The Company now believes that it can
    satisfy its obligation under the most recent BOEM request for
    financial assurance of sole liability properties and it will
    request that the previous orders pertaining to the $260.8
    million of financial assurances be rescinded.

  * Production averaged 42,712 barrels of oil equivalent ("Boe")
    per day (or 3.8 million Boe for the quarter), 57% of which was
    oil and natural gas liquids;

  * Revenues were $124.4 million, 75% of which was from oil and
    NGLs, up $46.7 million, or 60% compared to the first quarter
    of 2016.  Sequentially, revenues were up $9.2 million or 8%;

  * Lease operating expenses declined $4.3 million to $40.2
    million compared to the first quarter of 2016 and G&A
    decreased $3.2 million to $13.3 million.  LOE decreased 10%
    and G&A decreased 19%.  Operating income was $28.2 million
    compared to an operating loss in the first quarter of 2016 of
    $166.6 million, which included a ceiling test write-down of
    $116.6 million.  Sequentially, operating income was up $6.9
    million or 32%;

  * Interest expense, net of amount capitalized, decreased $16.2
    million to $11.3 million compared to the first quarter of
    2016;

  * Net income was $24.3 million and earnings per share were
    $0.17.  Excluding special items, its adjusted net income was
    $22.8 million and earnings were $0.16 per share.

  * Cash flow from operating activities increased to $81.2 million
    in the first quarter of 2017 from $29.7 million in the first
    quarter of 2016.  Adjusted EBITDA was $65.2 million, up $48.4
    million compared to the first quarter of 2016.  Adjusted
    EBITDA margin was 52% versus 21% in the first quarter of 2016.


  * Expects to receive $71.7 million in income tax refunds between
    2017 and 2018 related to net operating loss carryback claims
    filed and to be filed as of March 31, 2017.

Tracy W. Krohn, W&T Offshore's chairman and chief executive
officer, stated, "Our first quarter 2017 results greatly improved
over the same time last year as we benefited from higher commodity
prices and lower expenses, allowing us to continue to generate net
income and solid free cash flow.  Production was up about 6%
sequentially and down only 2.5% from a year ago, on very modest
drilling activity, with our continuing success at Mahogany whereby
we can put successful wells on line quickly increasing production
along with our beneficial workover and recompletion program.
Additionally, unlike many shale wells, the Gulf of Mexico wells
don't typically exhibit as steep of a decline curve and thereby
contribute strong production rates well past the initial production
phase by comparison.

"Our Mahogany field continues to be a stellar performer as we
placed the A-18 well on production in January.  That well continues
to produce at about 5,000 Boe per day.  We finished a bypass
completion at our A-16 location on the last day of March and that
well is producing almost 2,000 Boe per day currently.  We have
additional activity planned for the Mahogany field in 2017
including at least one exploration well and one development
sidetrack well.

"As we have previously indicated, our 2017 capital expenditure
program is flexible and subject to change as we continue to focus
on identifying and pursuing the best opportunities.  Recently, we
added the B-5 well at Ship Shoal 300 to this year's drilling plan
and we have received all necessary partner approvals.  The well
will be drilled from an existing platform in the field and drilling
should commence in the middle of 2017.  This represents a low risk
stacked pay opportunity that could add new production quickly.
Assuming success, another drilling location from the platform could
be added to the program.  New seismic indicates a strong amplitude
feature and multiple pay horizons.  Like other projects in our 2017
capital program, the SS 300 B-5 well is expected to achieve an
internal rate of return in excess of 75%. Based on the current
performance of the SS 349 A-18 and A-16 wells, we expect these
wells to achieve rates of return in excess of 100%," added Mr.
Krohn.

Production, Revenues and Price: Total production was 3.8 million
barrels of oil equivalent ("MMBoe") in the first quarter of 2017,
down 2.5% from the first quarter of 2016.  Production was lower
compared to the first quarter of 2016 due to natural production
declines, well performance, and platform maintenance.  This was
partially offset by new oil production activity at certain fields
within the last year, including Ewing Bank 910, Viosca Knoll 823
("Virgo"), East Cameron 321, Garden Banks 302 ("PowerPlay") and
Main Pass 108 fields.

Revenues for the first quarter of 2017 increased 60% to $124.4
million compared to $77.7 million in the first quarter of 2016. The
increase in revenues was due to a 66% increase in realized
commodity prices, partially offset by a 2.5% decrease in
production, the majority of which was attributable to downtime for
platform maintenance at our Tahoe field.  The Company sold 42,712
Boe per day at an average realized sales price of $32.12 per Boe
compared to 43,317 Boe per day sold at an average realized sales
price of $19.33 per Boe in the first quarter of 2016.

Lease Operating Expenses: LOE -- which includes base lease
operating expenses, insurance premiums, workovers, and facilities
maintenance -- decreased $4.3 million, to $40.2 million in the
first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016.  On a
per Boe basis, LOE decreased to $10.45 per Boe in the first quarter
of 2017, a 7.4% reduction compared to $11.28 per Boe in the first
quarter of 2016.  LOE decreased primarily due to lower costs from
service providers, lower insurance premiums and optimization
efforts at reducing our lease operating costs. These reductions
were partially offset by higher workover costs of $2.6 million due
to an increase in activities.

Depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion: DD&A,
including accretion for asset retirement obligations, decreased to
$10.40 per Boe for the first quarter of 2017 from $16.17 per Boe
for the first quarter of 2016.  On a nominal basis, DD&A decreased
$23.7 million to $40.0 million for the first quarter of 2017 from
$63.7 million for the first quarter of 2016 primarily due to a
decrease in the DD&A rate per Boe.  DD&A on a per Boe and nominal
basis decreased primarily due to prior-period ceiling test
write-downs.

General and Administrative Expenses: G&A decreased $3.2 million, or
19% to $13.3 million for the first quarter of 2017 compared to the
first quarter of 2016.  The decrease was primarily due to reduced
headcount related expenses (salaries and benefits along with
reduced contractor headcount), lower legal costs, and decreased
medical claims.

Interest expense: Interest expense, net of capitalized interest,
declined $16.2 million to $11.3 million in the first quarter of
2017, compared to $27.5 million in the first quarter of 2016.  The
decrease was primarily due to an exchange transaction that was
completed on Sept. 7, 2016, when the Company exchanged $710.2
million of its unsecured senior notes for $301.8 million of new
secured notes and 60 million shares of its common stock.  Also,
there were no borrowings outstanding under its revolving bank
credit facility during the first quarter of 2017.

Income Tax: The Company's income tax benefit for the three months
ended March 31, 2017, and 2016 was $7.6 million and $4.9 million,
respectively.  Its annualized effective tax rate for both periods
was not meaningful.  An income tax benefit was recorded in each
period presented related to net operating loss carryback claims for
2017 and 2016 carried back to 2007 and 2006, respectively.

As of March 31, 2017, the balance sheet reflects a current income
tax receivable of $11.9 million and non-current income tax
receivables of $59.8 million.  The current income tax receivable
primarily relates to our NOL claim for 2016 carried back to 2006.
The non-current income tax receivables relate to our NOL claims
that were carried back to earlier years that are expected to be
realized in 2018.

Net cash provided by operating activities in the first three months
of 2017 was $81.2 million compared to $29.7 million for the same
period in 2016.

Cash flows from operating activities before changes in working
capital, insurance reimbursements and ARO settlements were $63.5
million in 2017, compared to a negative $9.6 million generated over
the same period in 2016.  Other items affecting operating cash
flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were insurance
reimbursements of $30.1 million and changes in receivables,
accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $2.2 million, partially
offset by ARO settlements of $14.5 million.

Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2017 was $65.2 million, up
$48.4 million over the same period in 2016.  The Company's Adjusted
EBITDA margin was 52% in the first quarter of 2017, compared to 21%
in the first quarter of 2016.

At March 31, 2017, the Company's total liquidity was $275.6
million, consisting of a cash balance of $126.1 million and $149.5
million of availability under its $150 million revolving bank
credit facility, up from a cash balance of $70.2 million and total
liquidity of $219.7 million at Dec. 31, 2016.

The Company's capital expenditures for oil and gas properties on an
accrual basis for the first quarter of 2017 were $23.3 million
($22.2 million on a cash basis) compared to $12.9 million ($33.6
million on a cash basis) for the first quarter of 2016.  In the
first quarter of 2017 its capital expenditures were primarily
directed at completion operations at the Ship Shoal 349
("Mahogany") A-18 well and drilling and completion operations at
the SS 349 A-16 bypass.  The remainder of the expenditures was
associated with recompletions, development activities and seismic.

The Company's capital expenditures for 2017 are currently estimated
at $125 million.  Its plug and abandonment activities for 2017 are
currently estimated at approximately $78.3 million. Capital
expenditures and abandonment activities are expected to be funded
with cash on hand and cash flow from operating activities.

                       Operations Update

The Company currently has one rig operating in the Gulf of Mexico
which is at Ship Shoal 349 drilling the A-8 bypass.

Ship Shoal 349 A-18 "Mahogany" (100% WI, operated, shelf):

During the first quarter, its Ship Shoal 349 ("Mahogany") A-18 well
was placed on production and is currently producing about 5,000 Boe
per day and is 75% oil.  The rig then conducted a bypass operation
on the A-16 well targeting the 'P' sand.  The A-16 well was placed
on production in mid-April and is currently producing almost 1,950
Boe per day and is 82% oil.  The rig is currently drilling the A-8
bypass well to target a crestal 'P' Sand location.  This well is
expected to reach total depth within the next month or so.
Following the A-8 well, the Company will most likely drill the A-17
well, which would target the deep 'T' Sand as an extension of the
'T' reservoir.  Following that well the Company plans to drill a
sidetrack well at the A-5 location targeting the 'Q' and 'P'
Sands.

Ship Shoal 300 B-5 (80% WI, operated, shelf):

The Company recently added the SS 300 B-5 well to its 2017 drilling
program and expect to spud the well in the middle of this year.  SS
300 is a proven oil field with an existing platform from which to
drill the B-5 well.  All necessary partner approvals have been
received.  Assuming the well is successful, the Company could
possibly add a second well to further increase reserves and value.

The Company believes that this well represents a low risk
opportunity with stacked pay potential.  New seismic indicates a
strong amplitude feature and multiple pay horizons.  Like other
projects in its 2017 capital program, the SS 300 B-5 well is
expected to achieve a rate of return in excess of 75%.

Ewing Bank 910 (36% - 50% WI, operated, deepwater)

Two wells are planned in its Ewing Bank 910 field this year which
include the South Timbalier 311 A-2 and A-3 sidetrack wells.  The
first well is expected to spud in the middle of 2017 with the next
well to follow shortly thereafter, but should be completed in 2018.
The Company views both of these wells to be low risk exploration
with stacked pay sands.  If successful, these wells can be brought
on line quickly via existing infrastructure and pipelines.

Well Recompletions and Workovers:  The Company recently recompleted
the High Island 21 A-1 well as a dual completion in the High Island
22 field.  That work along with returning the High Island 22
platform to service increased production to 5.6 MMcf per day.
Recompletion operations have just concluded at South Timbalier 229
A-4 with the well reaching an initial production rate in excess of
500 Boe per day.

WALTON WESTPHALIA: Receives Notice of Default From Senior Lender
----------------------------------------------------------------
Walton Westphalia Development Corporation on May 11, 2017,
disclosed that its wholly-owned United States subsidiary ("US Sub")
and Walton Westphalia Europe, LP, an affiliate of the Corporation
and the other co-owner of the Westphalia property "WWE" and,
together with the US Sub, the "Borrowers") received a notice of
default "Default Notice") from its senior lender "Senior Lender")
under its senior loan "Senior Loan") as a result of the Borrowers'
failure to provide an appraisal evidencing an appraised value of
the Westphalia property resulting in a Loan to Value Ratio less
than or equal to 40% "LTVR") on or before April 30, 2017 in
accordance with the Senior Loan.  The slower than expected capital
raise from the EB-5 program financing, and delays in finalizing the
Tax Increment Financing Bond "TIF") issuance legislation with
Prince George's County officials resulted in the project not
obtaining an LTVR below the 40% threshold.

As a result of the default, the Senior Lender has completed a
valuation based on the most recent appraisal of the Westphalia
property available and concluded that the value exceeds the LTVR by
$5,012,849.  The Senior Lender has made a demand to the Borrowers
for this amount, which the failure of payment would result in an
"event of default" under the Senior Loan.  Under the terms of the
Senior Loan, the Borrowers assert that they have a 30-day cure
period following the receipt of the Default Notice before this
default becomes an "event of default".  During this cure period,
the Corporation and the Borrowers will work with the Senior Lender
to cure the default through an equity injection, a refinancing, an
asset sale, additional debt issuance(s), a temporary waiver or a
forbearance agreement.  The Senior Loan matures on June 30, 2017
and the Corporation is not confident it will be able to refinance
with traditional bank lending at that time.  While the Corporation
is working through solutions, it does not currently have sufficient
cash resources pay the amount demanded which will result in the
Corporation being in default on the Senior Loan at the end of the
30-day cure period.  Such default would entitle the Senior Lender
to, among other things, enforce their security on, and take
possession of, the assets of the Corporation, including the
Westphalia property. Any failure by the Corporation to repay the
indebtedness under the Senior Loan referred to above could result
in the acceleration of the maturity date of the Corporation's
debentures under the terms thereof.  An event of default under the
Senior Loan would, by reason of cross-default provisions,
constitute an event of default under the Borrowers' mezzanine loan
(the "Mezzanine Loan"), and under the terms of certain of the
Borrowers' other indebtedness, including the loans from Walton
International Group (USA), Inc., as a result of which such other
lenders could, subject to the terms of the applicable intercreditor
agreements, demand payment under such loans.

Walton GIobal Investments Ltd. ("WGI"), an affiliate of the
Corporation, has guaranteed to the Senior Lender the repayment of
up to U.S.$19.5 million under the Senior Loan plus the amount of
any outstanding letters of credit provided under the Senior Loan.
In addition, WGI has provided completion guarantees to the Senior
Lender and the mezzanine lender under the Mezzanine Loan.  In the
event that the Borrowers default under the above loans, the lenders
may be entitled to enforce those guarantees.

The Corporation is managed by Walton Asset Management L.P. and the
development of the project is managed by Walton Development &
Management (USA), Inc., both of which are members of the Walton
Group of Companies.

The Walton Group of Companies ("Walton") is a multinational real
estate investment, planning and development group concentrating on
the research, acquisition, administration, planning and development

WAVE SYSTEMS: 'It's An Exciting Moment for Us,' Says Aurea CEO
--------------------------------------------------------------
A letter from Aurea CEO Scott Brighton to Jive customers dated
May 4, 2017.

Dear Jive Customer,

By now you've heard the announcement that Jive has entered into a
definitive agreement to join the Aurea family.  This change is a
natural source of uncertainty, and may be raising questions for you
and your teams.

Recognizing that, I'd like to take a moment to welcome you, and let
you know how excited I am to get to know you.  I've already had the
opportunity to meet many of you at this week's JiveWorld, and hear
the compelling stories of how you have deployed Jive within your
companies.

I would also like to address why we believe this is both a
meaningful advance for Jive and its products, and an exciting
opportunity for you.

Let me start by sharing a bit of background on how we operate as a
company.  Aurea has developed a strong track record of successfully
integrating and strengthening enterprise software companies.  Our
operating model -- expanding the investment in products and
focusing on installed base client success as the basis for growth
-- has been the enabler of success at each of the roughly dozen
software companies we have acquired in the last five years.  We're
confident this will be the case with Jive.

The combination will also create increased scale, nearly doubling
the company in size to more than $500MM in revenue.  We believe
this increased scale will enable greater R&D muscle to enhance our
pace of innovation.

Another benefit of our operating model is that we are privately
held.  And as a private company, we are afforded the opportunity to
think and invest long term, even when those investments may not
yield immediate impact.  This contrasts with a potentially
constraining focus on shorter-term shareholder returns and all the
tradeoffs it forces on companies.

Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, is the strategic fit we
believe this represents.  By bringing our two companies together,
we will make the Jive interactive intranet and customer engagement
solution key pillars of the Aurea customer experience vision.

While the transaction isn't expected to close until June 2017, my
team and I couldn't be more pleased to welcome you to the Aurea
family.  It's an exciting moment for us, and I look forward to
having the opportunity to meet you in the coming weeks and months.

WEST CORP: S&P Puts 'BB-' CCR on CreditWatch Negative
-----------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings placed its 'BB-' corporate credit rating on
Omaha, Neb.-based West Corp. on CreditWatch with negative
implications.  S&P is not placing the issue-level ratings on
CreditWatch because it expects all debt to be repaid upon close of

the transaction.

"The CreditWatch placement follows West Corp.'s announcement that
it entered into an agreement to sell itself to private equity
sponsor Apollo Global Management LLC for $23.50 per share in cash,
an equity value of approximately $2 billion," said S&P Global
Ratings credit analyst William Savage.

In resolving the CreditWatch placement, S&P will discuss with
management the strategic implications of the sale to Apollo Global
Management LLC as well the new capital structure.  S&P intends to
resolve the CreditWatch placement when the transaction closes with
the expectation that if leverage were to exceed 5x, S&P would
likely lower the rating by at least one notch.

WILDHORSE RESOURCE: S&P Affirms 'B' CCR; Outlook Stable
-------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said that it has revised its recovery rating to
'3' from '4' on U.S.-based exploration and production company
WildHorse Resource Development Corp.'s senior unsecured debt.  The
'3' recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation for meaningful (50%
to 70%; rounded estimate: 50%) recovery in the event of default.
The issue-level rating on the unsecured notes remains 'B'.

The corporate credit rating remains 'B' with a stable outlook.

The higher recovery rating on the company's unsecured debt
incorporates the May 11, 2017, announcement that the company will
acquire additional assets in the Eagle Ford basin.  The company
will fund the acquisition with proceeds from the preferred stock
and will add to its PV-10 valuation.  As a result, the recovery
prospects on the unsecured notes will improve.

S&P has assigned minimal equity content to the company's proposed
series A preferred stock and, as a result, include the entire
amount, plus expected accruals from deferring dividends
requirements, for debt-to-leverage ratio calculation purposes.
However, despite higher debt, leverage will remain moderate with
debt to EBITDA at about 4x in 2017 and declining to below 3x in
2018 on the expectation that production will increase
significantly.  S&P also expects funds from operations to debt to
improve to 30% in 2018 from 20% in 2017.

WP CITYMD: Moody's Assigns B3 Corporate Family Rating
-----------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a B3 Corporate Family Rating
(CFR) and B3-PD Probability of Default Rating (PDR) to WP CityMD
Bidco LLC. Moody's also assigned a B3 rating to the company's
proposed first lien credit facilities comprised of a $30 million
first lien revolving credit facility and a $225 million first lien
term loan. The rating outlook is stable.

The following ratings were assigned:

Issuer: WP CityMD Bidco LLC

Corporate Family Rating at B3

Probability of Default Rating at B3-PD

$30 million senior secured first lien revolving credit facility
expiring 2022 at B3 (LGD 3)

$225 million senior secured first lien term loan due 2024 at B3
(LGD 3)

Outlook at Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

CityMD's B3 Corporate Family Rating reflects the company's high
leverage with pro-forma debt/EBITDA, including capitalized
operating leases, near 7 times and interest coverage around 1.5
times. While CityMD has shown consistent growth and high margins
under its current management team, it has a short track record as
2/3rd of its locations were opened only in the last three years.
The ratings also reflect the company's limited geographic
diversification with substantially all locations in the greater New
York City area. CityMD benefits from participation in the urgent
care segment which has relatively stable demand over time. This is
a result of the essential nature of care sought, the high
population density in its markets that ensures a steady flow of
patients needing care, and a favorable payer mix. The company also
benefits from its well-known brand presence in its markets.

The rating outlook is stable. Moody's expects that CityMD will
remain disciplined executing its growth strategy which relies on
continued new unit growth. However, this strategy's costs --
including pre-opening expenses and a high level of rent expenses
relative to revenues -- will remain sizable. Thus Moody's expects
debt/EBITDA to remain in the mid to high 6 times range.

Ratings could be upgraded if the company continues to demonstrate
success of its growth objectives which would be evidenced by top
line growth and margin stability. Quantitatively ratings could be
upgraded if debt/EBITDA approaches 6 times and EBITA/interest rises
above 2 times, while maintaining a good overall liquidity profile.

Ratings could be downgraded if the company's growth strategy
falters, which would be evidenced by sustained pressure on
operating margins. Quantitatively ratings could be downgraded if
interest coverage approaches 1 times or liquidity erodes.

Headquartered in New York, NY, CityMD operates 70 urgent care
facilities primarily in the greater New York City metropolitan
area. The company is owned by affiliates of Warburg Pincus and
senior management.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was that for the
Business and Consumer Service Industry published in October 2016.


WP CITYMD: S&P Assigns 'B-' CCR; Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'B-' corporate credit rating to WP
CityMD Bidco LLC.  The outlook is stable.

At the same time, S&P assigned its 'B-' issue-level rating and '3'
recovery rating to the company's senior secured credit facilities,
which consist of a $30 million revolving credit facility and
$225 million first-lien term facility.  S&P's '3' recovery rating
reflects its expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate:
50%) recovery in the event of payment default.

CityMD is a New York City-based urgent care provider.  The company
currently operates 70 facilities, mostly in the New York
metropolitan area and has three facilities in Seattle in a joint
venture with Catholic Health Initiatives.

"Our assessment of business risk takes into account the company's
limited scale, geographic concentration, limited market share, and
the fragmented nature of the urgent care services sector," said S&P
Global Ratings credit analyst Matthew O'Neill.  As a result, S&P
assess the business risk profile as vulnerable.

These characteristics are only partially offset by the company's
limited exposure to government payors (80% of revenues stemming
from commercial payors).  CityMD also benefits from its lower cost
compared with hospital emergency rooms and its almost 100%
in-network strategy with all payors.  In addition, the company's
efforts to cultivate constructive referral relationships and
partnerships with leading health systems have been productive.  The
company balances its convenient service with good operating
efficiency with extended operating hours and the ability to
optimize labor resources across locations.

The company is pursuing a rapid growth strategy that absorbs cash
flow and will result in increased lease obligations; however, the
company has been able to execute on its growth strategy, by quickly
integrating new facilities, successfully increasing utilization and
reimbursement at newly opened clinics, and generally maintaining
its EBITDA margins.  While S&P expects the company will achieve
attractive returns on its new facilities and acquisitions as it
realizes these cost and revenue synergies, we believe there are
considerable risks to the strategy.  The company is expanding
outside of its Manhattan concentration to the other boroughs and to
the metropolitan area suburbs, which could test the company's
historical utilization patterns and hinder profitability.
Additionally, acquisition multiples may rise if industry
consolidation accelerates, again reducing the return on
investment.

S&P estimate adjusted debt leverage of 7.2x for 2017 and 6.6x for
2018, and S&P expects adjusted debt leverage to generally remain
above 5x.  S&P's assessment of the financial risk profile as highly
leveraged also incorporates the company's financial sponsor
ownership and S&P's expectation for an appetite for aggressive
financial leverage.  The company has a number of operating leases
which significantly affect our adjusted financial measures.   S&P
adds roughly $24 million of operating lease rent to its EBITDA
calculation along with roughly $244 million to debt.  S&P's
expectation is that the company will allocate all cash flow to
support its rapid growth strategy.  The company's debt burden is
relatively high based on its size and cash EBITDA.

S&P's stable rating outlook on CityMD reflects S&P's view that the
company will continue to direct its cash flow entirely toward its
growth strategy, while maintaining relatively stable EBITDA
margins.  S&P expects adjusted debt leverage to remain modestly
above 5x for the next few years given the company's growth
trajectory and financial sponsor ownership.

S&P could lower the rating if the company suffered a sustained
EBITDA margin decline of 300 basis points or more and some fall-off
in revenue growth.  This would most likely occur if the company
overexpands and is unable to successfully integrate new facilities
or if operations at its current facilities deteriorates resulting
in persistent cash flow deficits.  At that level of EBITDA, S&P
thinks coverage of rent, interest expense, and minimal capital
spending is very thin, and would likely prompt S&P to view the
company's capital structure as unsustainable.

Although an upgrade is unlikely in the near term, S&P could raise
the ratings if the company is able to generate sustained reported
EBITDA of about $45 million to $50 million, which would cover its
lease and interest expense, while also leaving some positive cash
flow.  S&P could also raise the rating if the company improves its
business risk by increasing its scale in in its markets while also
maintaining its current solid EBITDA margins.


YUKOS OIL: Was Unlawfully Bankrupted by Russia, Dutch Court Rules
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Yukos Foundation issued a statement noting a ruling from the
Amsterdam Court of Appeal on the Yukoil Oil Company bankruptcy. The
Foundation said:

"The Amsterdam Court of Appeal [on May 9, 2017] ruled that the
Russian Federation unlawfully bankrupted Yukos Oil Company. The
court concluded that the Russian authorities 'not only violated the
Russian (tax) rules, but also that this was done with the apparent
intent to make Yukos insolvent and ultimately bankrupt Yukos.' The
Russian bankruptcy cannot be recognized in The Netherlands, the
court ruled, as that would 'violate public order.' The Dutch Yukos
Foundation that was set up to protect Yukos foreign assets is now
one step closer to distributing additional assets to the former
shareholders of Yukos Oil.

"'The Yukos Foundation applauds the ruling in this case, which has
exposed the extent to which the Russian Federation will go to
manipulate the legal process and ignore the rule of law in order to
accomplish their aims,' said Steve Theede, former Yukos CEO, and
now a member of the Foundation's board of directors.

"The Amsterdam Court of Appeal's decision is in favor of one of the
subsidiaries of Yukos Oil, the Dutch company Yukos Finance BV,
worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Russian company
Promneftstroy argued it owned Yukos Finance, which the court ruled
it bought in a rigged bankruptcy auction. Promneftstroy's claims
were all dismissed.

"'The Foundation -- which has spent over 10 years fighting
Promneftstroy's claim to ownership of the Dutch entity in order to
protect Yukos' financial assets and return them to shareholders --
believes today's ruling should resolve the case once and for all,'
Theede added.

"The Foundation was set up to protect the assets of the Yukos group
outside Russia for the purpose of ultimately distributing the
monies to creditors and former shareholders of Yukos, who were
harmed by the unlawful expropriation. The ruling shows that Yukos'
management's strategy to seek the protection of independent courts,
outside of Russia, pays off,' said Eelco Meerdink, who represented
Yukos in the proceedings. While Promnefstroy may appeal the court's
decision to the Supreme Court, Meerdink said 'the Foundation is
confident that this judgment will be upheld.'

"Yukos, which was once Russia's largest oil company, was bankrupted
in 2006 after Russian authorities imposed back tax claims and fines
of $24 billion in what was widely seen as a politically motivated
assault on then-Yukos CEO Mikhail Khodorkovsky. Former Yukos assets
today form the bulk of state-controlled Rosneft, the world’s
biggest public oil producer."

The Yukos Foundation was formed in 2005 to ensure that the assets
of the Yukos group outside Russia can be protected and distributed
fairly to the company’s former creditors and shareholders as soon
as litigation regarding the entitlement to such assets is favorably
resolved.  The Foundation is identifying and verifying Yukos
shareholders in order to return financial assets to them when legal
challenges are completed.

                         About Yukos Oil

Headquartered in Moscow, Yukos Oil -- http://yukos.com/-- was an  

open joint stock company under the laws of the Russian Federation.
Yukos was involved in energy industry substantially through its
ownership of its various subsidiaries, which own or are otherwise
entitled to enjoy certain rights to oil and gas production,
refining and marketing assets.

The Company filed for Chapter 11 protection on Dec. 14, 2004
(Bankr. S.D. Tex. Case No. 04-47742), but the case was dismissed
on Feb. 24, 2005, by the Hon. Letitia Z. Clark.  A few days later,
the Russian Government sold its main production unit Yugansk to a
little-known firm Baikalfinansgroup for US$9.35 billion, as
payment for US$27.5 billion in tax arrears for 2000-2003.  Yugansk
eventually was bought by state-owned Rosneft, which is now
claiming more than US$12 billion from Yukos.

On March 10, 2006, a 14-bank consortium led by Societe Generale
filed a bankruptcy suit in the Moscow Arbitration Court in an
attempt to recover the remainder of a US$1 billion debt under
outstanding loan agreements.  The banks, however, sold the claim
to Rosneft, prompting the Court to replace them with the state-
owned oil company as plaintiff.

On April 13, 2006, court-appointed external manager Eduard Rebgun
filed a chapter 15 petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 06-0775),
in an attempt to halt the sale of Yukos' 53.7% ownership interest
in Lithuanian AB Mazeikiu Nafta.

On May 26, 2006, Yukos signed a US$1.49 billion Share Sale and
Purchase Agreement with PKN Orlen S.A., Poland's largest oil
refiner, for its Mazeikiu ownership stake.  The move was made a
day after the Manhattan Court lifted an order barring Yukos from
selling its controlling stake in the Lithuanian oil refinery.

On Aug. 1, 2006, the Hon. Pavel Markov of the Moscow Arbitration
Court upheld creditors' vote to liquidate OAO Yukos Oil Co. and
declared what was once Russia's biggest oil firm bankrupt.

On Nov. 23, 2007, the Russian Trading System and Moscow
Interbank Currency Exchange stopped trading Yukos shares after
the company formally ceased to exist.  Mr. Rebgun completed the
company's liquidation process after Russia's Federal Tax Service
has entered Yukos' liquidation on the Uniform State Register of
Legal Entities.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Nov. 14,
2007, the Moscow Arbitration Court entered an order closing the
liquidation proceedings of Yukos, 15 months after it was declared
bankrupt on Aug. 1, 2006.


[*] Bankruptcy Filings Continue to Escalate in Retail Sector
------------------------------------------------------------
2017's first quarter was grim for retailers, as bankruptcy filings
continued to escalate, with no sign of decreasing in the
foreseeable future, proving the "Amazon Effect" is not a fluke.
Energy industry filings are expected to continue in the second
quarter, although at a slower pace this year, and the healthcare
industry may be the next sector to face a flurry of bankruptcy
filings, according to The Deal, a business unit of TheStreet, Inc.


"Bankruptcy and restructuring attorneys and advisers were busy in
the first quarter as the amount of Chapter 11 filings increased in
each month with the retail industry leading the charge on
petitions," said Kirk O'Neil, bankruptcy reporter at The Deal.
"The rising trend of retail Chapter 11 filings is expected to
continue through the year as oil and gas industry filings begin to
level off."

bankruptcy cases filed between January 1 and March 31, 2017.

Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP followed, with $16.5 billion in
liabilities.  Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP ranked third, with just
over $15 billion in liabilities. Duane Morris LLP ranked fourth
with $13.1 billion in liabilities and Reed Smith LLP ranked fifth
with $12.2 billion in liabilities.

   -- For investment banks by volume, Houlihan Lokey Inc. remained
in the top spot, with $12.7 billion in liabilities.  PJT Partners
Inc. followed in second, with $9.9 billion in liabilities.
Centerview Partners LLC was third, with $6.4 billion in
liabilities.  Evercore Partners Inc. ranked fourth, with $3.6
billion in liabilities.  Perella Weinberg Partners LP rounded up
the top five with $3.2 billion in liabilities.

   -- FTI Consulting Inc. claimed the top spot for crisis
management firms by volume with $18.2 billion.  AlixPartners LLP
followed with $17.6 billion. Zolfo Cooper LLC came in third with
$7.5 billion.  Opportune LLP came in fourth with $4.4 billion.

[*] Carl Selenberg Can't Drop Malpractice Settlement With Ex-Client
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Jess Krochtengel, writing for Bankruptcy Law360, reports that the
Fifth Circuit held that Carl J. Selenberg can't discharge the
malpractice settlement with former client Dianne Bates because he
didn't advise Ms. Bates to retain independent counsel before
settling.

Law360 relates that Mr. Selenberg cannot discharge through his
Chapter 7 bankruptcy a $275,000 promissory note he signed over to
Ms. Bates, under a fraud exception to the Bankruptcy Code.  The
Fifth Circuit, Law360 states, found that Mr. Selenberg breached a
Louisiana ethics rule by failing to inform Ms. Bates she should
retain independent counsel before settling her malpractice claims
against him, and thus made a false representation under Section
523(a)(2)(A) of the Code.

Mr. Selenberg is represented by Thomas E. Schafer III, Esq., Law360
says.

Dianne Bates is represented by Jacques F. Bezou Jr., Esq., at The
Bezou Law Firm and Rachel Thyre Anderson, Esq., at the Law Office
of Rachel Thyre Anderson LLC, Law360 states.

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.

TCR subscribers have free access to our on-line news archive.
Point your Web browser to http://TCRresources.bankrupt.com/and use
the e-mail address to which your TCR is delivered to login.
