1201 PLEASANTVILLE: B. Stepanian Renews Bid for Trustee Appointment
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Berdj Stepanian submits a supplement to his motion for the
appointment of a Chapter 11 Trustee over the estate of 1201
Pleasantville Road Restaurant Holding Group, LLC.

Despite literally scores of repeated requests by Stepanian's
counsel, agreement by the Debtor and having been directed by the
Court on two occasions, the Debtor has failed to do almost any of
the things required, has ignored its obligations under the
bankruptcy code and has repeatedly used estate funds for personal
expenses. Accordingly, Stepanian believes adequate cause exists to
appoint a trustee and renews his Motion to Appoint a Chapter 11
Trustee.

Stepanian also contends that the Debtor still has not paid any
post-petition taxes, has not reserved any funds to pay such taxes
and failed to obtain a loan to pay post-petition taxes. The amount
of unpaid post-petition taxes continues to grow, especially now
during the Debtor's busiest season. As a result, with each passing
day the Debtor is permitted to operate in Chapter 11 it becomes
less and less likely the Debtor will ever be able to emerge from
bankruptcy and less and less likely that creditors will ever be
paid because the amount of post-petition taxes that must be paid to
confirm a plan and must be paid before other creditors receive any
payment continues to grow.

In sum, now that the Debtor has been in Chapter 11 for nearly six
months and has continued to incur substantial incur tax liability
each and every month, there is more than sufficient evidence that
the Debtor cannot run a business properly and thus, a trustee
should be appointed to remedy these issues.

Jersey-based women's footwear brand offering a wide array of
footwear, including heels, flats, wedges, boots and sandals that
appeal to broad consumer tastes.

With plans to close 74 of 78 stores they are operating, Aerogroup

noticing agent.

AEROSTAR AIRPORT: Moody's Confirms Ba2 Rating on $400MM Sr. Bonds
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service confirmed the Ba2 rating assigned to $400
million (original outstanding amount) of senior secured bonds
issued by Aerostar Airport Holdings, LLC and changed the rating
outlook to negative. The rating action concludes the rating review
that was initiated on September 27.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The rating action reflects Aerostar's credit strengths that
partially mitigate the impact of Hurricane Maria on Puerto Rico and
its consequences on the economy and population trends. Aerostar,
the operator of San Juan Luis Muñoz Marín Airport, has an Airport
Use Agreement (AUA) with airlines that sets a revenue floor for the
airport regardless of actual enplanements. While Moody's expect
that tourism related travel will be significantly reduced in the
short term, Moody's expect that it will materially recover over the
next two years. Moreover, outmigration and diaspora related
enplanements are expected to partially compensate lower tourism
travel in the short term.

The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (Ca negative) faces almost total
economic disruption in the near term and diminished output probably
through the end of the current fiscal year and maybe well into the
next. On one hand, a massive exodus of residents relocating to the
mainland, rather than rebuilding on the island, could further erode
Puerto Rico's economic base. On the other, an infusion of federal
relief and rebuilding funds could spur the economic growth and
infrastructure replacement that, under normal conditions, has
eluded Puerto Rico. According to preliminary Moody's Analytics
estimates, Puerto Rico faces lost economic output of $20 billion to
$40 billion over an indefinite period. If concentrated in a single
year, that loss would equate to as much as 57% of GNP. For more
information please visit www.moodys.com.

Aerostar estimates around $70 million in damages to its
infrastructure, but was able to resume operations within few days
after hurricane Maria hit the island. The airport has gradually
expanded commercial activity since then and currently 30 out of 35
gates are open and all airlines have restarted operations. The $70
million are expected to be materially funded with insurance
claims.

WHAT COULD CHANGE THE RATING UP/DOWN

Given the negative outlook, a rating upgrade in the near term is
unlikely. Nonetheless, a solid recovery of tourism, an improved
operating environment and growth prospects on Puerto Rico could
lead to the stabilization of the outlook. A downgrade would result
if enplanements are materially reduced over an extended period due
to a slow recovery of tourism or lower revenues that lead to a
Moody's Debt Service Coverage Ratio below 2.0x on a sustained
basis.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Privately
Managed Airports and Related Issuers published in September 2017.


ALABAMA PARTNERS: Court Extends Exclusivity Period Until Feb. 7

----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Jason D. Woodard of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Mississippi authorized Aluminum Extrusions,
Inc.'s sale of all or substantially all assets outside the ordinary
course of business to Larson Manufacturing of South Dakota, Inc.
for $7,250,000.

A hearing on the Motion was held on Dec. 5, 2017.  The Auction was
held on Dec. 4, 2017.  Larson is the highest and best bidder for
the Purchased Assets.  The bid of Pries Enterprises, Inc., an Iowa
corporation, was selected as a backup bidder with a bid of
$7,100,000.

The transfer of the Property to the Purchaser, and the assumption
and/or assignment to the Purchaser of any executory contracts or
unexpired leases, in each case, will be free and clear of all Liens
and Claims.

Subject to the provisions of the Court's order approving use
post-petition financing and the provisions of Miss. Code Ann.
Section 27-35-1, if applicable, the proceeds of sale allocable to
the collateral of Bank of Montgomery ("BOM") will be subject to and
impressed with the duly perfected first priority security interests
and liens of BOM (but only to the extent that BOM's prepetition
security interests and liens are valid and enforceable), and the
proceeds of sale allocable to the collateral of Triumph Bank will
be subject to and impressed with the duly perfected first priority
security interests and liens of Triumph (but only to the extent
that Triumph's pre-petition security interests and liens are valid
and enforceable) and the proceeds of sale, after payment of regular
and customary closing costs, recording fees to the extent
applicable, and any amounts required to be paid pursuant to the
Agreement, will be disbursed at closing as follows:

     a. first to the payment of commission and expenses of Equity
Partners, HG, LLC, in the amount of $271,881 in fees and $13,954 in
expenses which amount will be paid as interim compensation pending
filing of a final fee application by Equity Partners, HG, LLC;

     b. second to the fees and expenses of the professionals
employed by the Debtor incurred in connection with the sale process
and closing of the Asset Purchase Agreement in the amount not to
exceed $25,000 which amount will be held in escrow by counsel for
the Debtor pending fee applications by the said professionals;

     c. third, to the payment of quarterly fees owed to the U.S.
Trustee for the third and fourth quarters of 2017;

     d. fourth, to the payment of secured claims of Tate County for
real estate and personal property taxes (including payment of real
estate taxes on the parcels being conveyed by the Markling Trust);

     e. fifth, to the payment of any cure amounts owed to lessors
listed on Schedule 2 to the Agreement;

     f. sixth, to the payment of the secured claims of BOM and
Triumph based on the allocation of purchase price set forth in
Schedule 3 to the Agreement except as otherwise provided in the
Order; and

     g. any remaining net proceeds will be paid to the Debtor.

Any distribution to BOM, Tate County and/or Triumph will be subject
to the provisions of the Order and will be without prejudice to the
rights of the Committee, the Debtor or an interested party to
challenge validity, extent or priority of such security interest or
lien of any secured creditor claiming a security interest and lien
in the Purchased Assets (including, without limitation, BOM,
Triumph or Tate County), but only to the extent such rights have
not been barred by prior order of the Court.

Notwithstanding these provisions of the Order, the pro rata amount
of the net proceeds allocable to the sale of racks and dies as set
forth in Schedule 3 to the Agreement will be escrowed at closing in
an escrow account in the name of the Debtor with a financial
institution which complies with the United States Trustee's
guidelines for which counsel for the Debtor will be the signatory
pending further orders of the Court.

Additionally, the Committee, BOM, Triumph and Tate County will be
deemed to have standing and authority to initiate, pursue and
otherwise participate in, any of the claims and for causes of
action contemplated by this paragraph belonging to the Debtor or
its state.  The rights of BOM, Triumph and Tate County to assert
any defenses that may exist to any challenges to the extent,
validity and priority of liens claimed by BOM, Triumph and Tate
County are expressly reserved.

In the event an objection is filed to any tax claim asserted by
Tate County Mississippi, including any objection to determine the
validity, extent or priority of its tax lien, on Dec. 20, 2017, the
amount of distribution otherwise attributable to such claims will
be escrowed at closing with counsel for the Debtor pending further
orders of the Court.  The Debtor, the Committee, BOM and Triumph
will be deemed to have standing and authority to initiate, pursue
and otherwise participate in, any of the claims and for causes of
action contemplated belonging to the Debtor or its estate.

All outstanding Chapter 11 monthly operating reports will be
current no later than Dec. 8, 2017.  Furthermore, consistent with
the provisions of 11 U.S.C. 363(b)(l), the Purchaser will ensure
compliance with the Debtor's policy provisions currently in place
regarding the transfer of personally identifiable information of
persons not affiliated with the Debtor.  A report of sale will be
filed with the Court upon completion of the sale, in accordance
with Fed. R. Bankr. P. 6004(f).

For purposes of Fed. R. Bankr. P. 7062, the Order is an order
authorizing sale of property of the estate under 1 1 U.S.C. Section
363 and authorizing the assumption and assignment of unexpired
leases and executory contracts under ll U.S.C. Section 365.

The stay created pursuant to Fed. R. Bankr. P. Rule 6004(h) will
not be applicable to the Order.

The rights of the Committee to file an application for
reimbursement of fees and expenses pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section
506(c) and the rights of any secured creditor or lien creditor to
object to same are reserved to the extent not already barred by
prior order of the Court.  Any such application must be filed prior
to closing of the Agreement.

The Debtor, in the ordinary course of its business, carries various
types of insurance coverages, including, without limitation, the
Management Liability Package, which, again, includes Directors &
Officers Liability, Employment Practices Liability, Fiduciary
Liability and Commercial Crimes coverages.  The Management

AQGEN ASCENSUS: Moody's Affirms B3 CFR; Outlook Stable
------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed its B3 Corporate Family Rating
(CFR) and B3-PD Probability of Default Rating (PDR) for AqGen
Ascensus, Inc. ("Ascensus"). Concurrently, Moody's assigned a B2
rating to each of the company's proposed $560 million first lien
term loan and $50 million first lien delayed draw term loan, and
affirmed its B2 and Caa2 ratings for the company's $50 million
first lien revolving credit facility and $170 million second lien
term loan, respectively. The ratings outlook is stable.

The $560 million first lien term loan will replace the company's
existing term loan, providing an additional $100 million to fund
four acquisitions and repay recent revolver borrowings used for the
same purpose. These acquisitions expand upon Ascensus' retirement
solutions service offering and are consistent with its strategy of
pursuing bolt-on acquisitions. Pro forma for the transaction,
Moody's believes that leverage will be little changed. The $50
million delayed draw term loan will provide the company with
committed financing for six months to fund additional tuck-in
acquisitions. While the company is well positioned to capitalize on
expanding scale benefits as it integrates acquisitions, Moody's
anticipates financial policies will remain aggressive under private
equity ownership with continued risk from debt-funded
acquisitions.

Moody's affirmed the following ratings for AqGen Ascensus, Inc.:

Corporate Family Rating, B3

Probability of Default Rating, B3-PD

$50 million senior secured first lien revolving credit facility due
2020, B2 (LGD3)

$170 million senior secured second lien term loan due 2023, Caa2
(LGD5)

Moody's assigned the following ratings for AqGen Ascensus, Inc.:

$560 million senior secured first lien term loan due 2022, B2
(LGD3)

$50 million senior secured first lien delayed draw term loan due
2022, B2 (LGD3)

Outlook, Stable

The following rating at AqGen Ascensus, Inc. remains unchanged and
will be withdrawn upon the closing of the transaction:

$460 million senior secured first lien term loan ($463 million
original face value) due 2022, B2 (LGD3)

RATINGS RATIONALE

Ascensus' B3 CFR is constrained by high leverage, small scale
relative to larger and financially stronger business service
companies, reliance on financial advisors as channel partners for
sales to new plans, and some revenue concentration among top
customers which include state 529 college savings plans,
institutional clients, and channel partners. The rating benefits
from the company's well-established and scalable position in the
market for small retirement plans (fewer than 500 participants) and
state 529 college savings plans that supports good margins and free
cash flow, long-standing customer relationships with high rates of
retention, account fees and contracts that provide a degree of
revenue visibility and stability, and a general trend of increasing
regulatory compliance and disclosure requirements for retirement
asset administration. As part of the transaction, the company is
seeking to eliminate the sharp step-down in its financial covenant
that would have occurred on December 31, 2018, the assumed
successful completion of which will benefit liquidity by enabling
the company to maintain full access to its revolver.

The stable ratings outlook reflects Moody's expectation for
Ascensus to continue to meaningfully increase revenue over the next
12-18 months as the company scales via acquisitions while
generating good EBITA margins, but with financial risk remaining
elevated as evidenced by debt-to-EBITDA in excess of 7 times.

Factors that could lead to a downgrade include a significant
decrease in revenue, including due to the loss of a large customer;
deterioration in liquidity, including reversion to a cash
absorptive cash flow profile; leveraging acquisitions, including
larger target sizes; debt-funded dividends; and/or
EBITA-to-interest below 1.1 times.

Factors that could lead to an upgrade include financial policies
supportive of debt-to-EBITDA sustained under 6 times,
EBITA-to-interest over 1.75 times, and FCF-to-debt sustained over
5%.

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

Ascensus, headquartered in Dresher, Pennsylvania, is a service
provider primarily focused on record-keeping and administration for
retirement investment plans and college savings programs in the
United States. The company is owned principally by Genstar Capital
and Aquiline Capital Partners. Revenues for the twelve months ended
September 30, 2017 were $330 million.

created pursuant to the plan of reorganization of Arcapita Bank
B.S.C.(c) and certain of its affiliates under chapter 11 of the
United States Bankruptcy Code.

                        About Arcapita Bank

Arcapita Bank B.S.C., also known as First Islamic Investment Bank
B.S.C., along with affiliates, filed for Chapter 11 protection
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Lead Case No. 12-11076) in Manhattan on March 19,
2012.  The Debtors said they do not have the liquidity necessary to
repay a US$1.1 billion syndicated unsecured facility when it comes
due on March 28, 2012.

Falcon Gas Storage Company, Inc., filed a Chapter 11 petition
(Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 12-11790) on April 30, 2012.  Falcon Gas
is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Arcapita that previously
owned the natural gas storage business NorTex Gas Storage Company
LLC.  In early 2010, Alinda Natural Gas Storage I, L.P. (nka Tide
Natural Gas Storage I, L.P.), Alinda Natural Gas Storage II, L.P.
(nka Tide Natural Gas Storage II, L.P.) acquired the stock of
NorTex from Falcon Gas for $515 million.  Arcapita guaranteed
certain of Falcon Gas' obligations under the NorTex Purchase
Agreement.

The Debtors tapped Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP as bankruptcy
counsel, Linklaters LLP as corporate counsel, Towers & Hamlins LLP
as international counsel on Bahrain matters, Hatim S Zu'bi &
Partners as Bahrain counsel, KPMG LLP as accountants, Rothschild
Inc. and financial advisor, and GCG Inc. as notice and claims
agent.

Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP represented the Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditors.  Houlihan Lokey Capital, Inc.,
served as its financial advisor and investment banker.

Founded in 1996, Arcapita is a global manager of Shari'ah-compliant
alternative investments and  operates as an investment bank.
Arcapita is not a domestic bank licensed in the United States.
Arcapita is headquartered in Bahrain and is regulated under an
Islamic wholesale banking license issued by the Central Bank of
Bahrain.  The Arcapita Group employs 268 people and has offices in
Atlanta, London, Hong Kong and Singapore in addition to its Bahrain
headquarters.  The Arcapita Group's principal activities include
investing on its own account and providing investment opportunities
to third-party investors in conformity with Islamic Shari'ah rules
and principles.

The Arcapita Group had roughly US$7 billion in assets under
management.  On a consolidated basis, the Arcapita Group owns
assets valued at roughly US$3.06 billion and has liabilities of
roughly US$2.55 billion.  The Debtors owe US$96.7 million under two
secured facilities made available by Standard Chartered Bank.

Arcapita explored out-of-court restructuring scenarios but was
unable to achieve 100 percent lender consent required to effectuate
the terms of an out-of-court restructuring.

Subsequent to the Chapter 11 filing, Arcapita Investment Holdings
Limited, a wholly owned Debtor subsidiary of Arcapita in the Cayman
Islands, issued a summons seeking ancillary relief from the Grand
Court of the Cayman Islands with a view to facilitating the Chapter
11 cases.  AIHL sought the appointment of Zolfo Cooper as
provisional liquidator.

As reported in the TCR on Jun 19, 2013, the Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York entered its Findings of Fact,
Conclusions of Law, and Order confirming the Second Amended Joint
Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Arcapita Bank B.S.C.(c) and
Related Debtors with respect to each Debtor other than Falcon Gas
Storage Company, Inc.

The effective date of the Debtors' Second Amended Joint Plan of
Reorganization, dated as of June 11, 2013, occurred on Sept. 17,
2013.


ARIZONA AGRIBUSINESS: S&P Alters Outlook to Neg & Affirms BB+ CCR
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings has revised its outlook to negative from stable
and affirmed its 'BB+' underlying rating for credit program on
Yavapai County Industrial Development Authority, Ariz.'s, series
2011, 2012, 2015A and 2015B education revenue bonds, and Arizona
Industrial Development Authority's series 2017A and 2017B education
revenue and refunding bonds, issued for Arizona Agribusiness &
Equine Center Inc. (AAEC).

At the same time, S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'AA-' long-term
enhanced program rating, with a stable outlook, and 'BB+'
underlying rating for credit program with a negative outlook on the
authority's series 2018A education revenue bonds, issued for AAEC.


"The outlook revision reflects our view of AAEC's recent
deterioration in financial performance, which we don't expect to
return to positive full-accrual operations in the one-year outlook
period, coupled with high-leverage accompanying expansion plans and
softening enrollment trends," said S&P Global Ratings credit
analyst Kaiti Wang.

The 'AA-' long-term enhanced program rating reflects the bonds'
conditional approval in the Arizona Public School Credit
Enhancement Program. Final approval depends on certain conditions
being met before bond closing. In the unlikely event that the
related fund certificate is not executed, S&P will withdraw the
rating.

S&P said, "The negative outlook reflects our expectation there is a
one-in-three chance we could lower the rating in the one-year
outlook timeframe due to AAEC's weakened financial performance,
which we expect to continue through fiscal 2019; and significant
leverage following AAEC's somewhat aggressive expansion plans. We
do not expect the school will issue additional debt in the next
year, and consider AAEC to be at its debt capacity in its current
size.

"We could lower the rating if the school does not meet its
enrollment growth projections and manage financial performance in a
way that financial operations generate 0.9x MADS coverage.

"We could revise the outlook to stable if AAEC's operations and
MADS coverage improve in fiscal 2018 and the school sustains it for
fiscal 2019; construction projects are completed on schedule and
within budget; and enrollment growth meets targets, achieving a
student size that significantly reduces leverage and operational
pressure."


ARIZONA FUNDRAISING: Wells Fargo to Get $60K Under Revised Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
Arizona Fundraising Solutions, Inc., and Apex Fun Run, LLC filed
with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona a
revised joint disclosures statement to accompany their revised
joint plan of reorganization dated Sept. 22, 2017.

Class 1 consists of the Allowed Secured Claim of Wells Fargo
relating to its UCC Financing Statements filed on Feb. 27, 2015 and
March 4, 2015 in connection with an SBA loan. The Class 1 Claim is
alleged to be secured by a first-position lien against most of the
Debtor's Property. Based upon the information included in the
Debtor's Schedules, the Proponents estimated that the value of
Wells Fargo's collateral is approximately $23,969.76, which Wells
Fargo disputed. The revised plan provides that on Nov. 3, 2017, the
Proponents and Wells Fargo jointly filed the Stipulation in Aid of
Confirmation of Joint Plan of Reorganization, pursuant to which,
among other terms, the Proponents and Wells Fargo agreed that the
value of the Class 1 Claim is $60,000. The holder of the Class 1
Claim will be paid $60,000 in full on the Effective Date.

Class 4 consists of all Allowed Unsecured Claims. The Debtor
estimates the total amount of Unsecured Claims, including the
deficiency Claim of Wells Fargo, to be approximately $1,413,417.80.
Holders of Allowed Class 4 Claims will receive a pro rata share of
$15,000 of the Proceeds after the payment of Administrative Claims
and the Class 1 Claim.

AUTODATA INC: Moody's Affirms B3 Corporate Family Rating
--------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded ratings for Autodata, Inc.'s
first lien credit facilities to B3 from B2, affirmed the company's
B3 corporate family rating (CFR), B2-PD probability of default
rating (PDR), and Caa1 second lien term loan rating, and maintained
Autodata's stable ratings outlook.

The rating action was prompted by a pre-closing change to the
structure of credit facilities by which Autodata, Inc. and
co-borrower Autodata Solutions, Inc., will access funding to pay a
$360 million special dividend to the company's financial sponsor
owners. The change adds $20 million to first lien facilities while
reducing the second lien facility by a like amount.

With a reduced amount of loss-absorption capacity behind them and
with the first lien facilities now comprising nearly 80% of
Autodata's liabilities, first lien facilities (comprised of a $25
million 5-year revolving credit facility, and a $280 million 7-year
first lien term loan (increased from $260 million)) were downgraded
to B3, the same level as the company's CFR. While there is now an
additional $20 million of debt ranking ahead of the $80 million
8-year second lien term loan (reduced from $100 million), its Caa1
rating is unchanged and was affirmed.

The yet-to-close transaction marks the first time that Moody's has
rated Autodata. The assigned ratings are subject to review of final
documentation and confirmation of there being no material changes
in the transaction as advised to Moody's.

Issuer: Autodata, Inc.

Downgrades:

-- GTD Senior Secured 5-Year Revolving Bank Credit Facility,
    Downgraded to B3 (LGD4) from B2 (LGD4)

-- GTD Senior Secured 7-Year Term Loan Facility, Downgraded to B3

    (LGD4) from B2 (LGD4)

Affirmations and other actions:

  -- Corporate Family Rating, Affirmed at B3

  -- Probability of Default Rating, Affirmed at B2-PD

  -- GTD Second 8-year Lien Term Loan, Affirmed at Caa1 (LGD6)

  -- Outlook, Maintained at Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

Autodata's (B3 stable) credit profile is adversely affected by
elevated leverage in excess of 7.5x along with elevated event risks
given the company's private equity ownership, significant revenue
concentration, very modest scale, limited financial and operational
reporting, and participation in an industry which lacks publicly
available information. Autodata's credit profile is bolstered by
good liquidity, free cash flow and a lack of near term debt
maturities which provide modest de-levering potential, a vast data
library that is organized to enable Autodata's suite of automobile
sales and marketing software applications that underpins revenue
prospects, an experienced management team with a solid track
record, plus a growth opportunity as auto sales increasingly move
on-net.

Autodata has very good liquidity based on expected free cash flow
of about $10 million to $15 million over the next year, a $15
million cash balance at September 30, 2017, no near term debt
maturities, and expectations that financial covenant compliance
will not be problematic. The company's unused $25 million revolving
term loan features a springing covenant that Moody's do not expect
to become operable through mid-2019. A 7x first lien coverage ratio
applies if revolving facility outstandings exceed 35% of its limit
(estimated at 4.8x, pro forma, at closing).

With no meaningful financial covenants, Autodata's credit
facilities are bond-like. Other bond-like features include a debt
incurrence test, and cross-default to acceleration event-type
provisions that limit the rights of term loan lenders to benefit
from the revolving facility's covenant. In particular, second lien
term-loan lender rights are quite limited relative to prior-ranking
obligations. The combination of provisions points to delayed rather
than accelerated default which, in turn, points to a B2-PD PDR and
a lower-than-usual 35% family recovery rating.

Since the senior secured 1st lien credit facilities comprise nearly
80% of Autodata's liabilities, their rating is aligned with the
company's B3 CFR. with such a large pool of debt ranking ahead of
it, the second lien facility has weak recovery prospects and is
rated one notch below the B3 CFR at Caa1.

Rating Outlook

The stable outlook is based on Moody's assessment that Autodata has
ample liquidity to support its operations and that leverage will
remain elevated at about 7x through mid-2019.

What Could Change the Rating - Up

The rating could be considered for upgrade if, along with
expectations of solid industry fundamentals, rapidly growing
revenues, solid execution and customer retention, and good
liquidity, Moody's anticipated leverage of debt/EBITDA normalizing
below 6x on a sustained basis (opening leverage estimated to be
7.7x including Moody's standard adjustments and with capitalized
software expensed).

What Could Change the Rating -- Down

The rating could be considered for downgrade if Moody's expected
leverage of debt/EBITDA to be sustained above 8x, or substantial
and sustained free cash flow deficits, less than adequate liquidity
arrangements, or if customer retention and execution faltered.
Debt-financed merger and acquisition activity may also cause a
downgrade.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Software
Industry published in December 2015.

Autodata, comprised of Autodata, Inc. and Autodata Solutions, Inc.,
is a London, Ontario, Canada-based software applications and
consulting company that uses an extensive data base of vehicle
parameters to help automobile manufacturers and dealers to sell new
and used vehicles. Autodata is a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary
of privately held Micro Holding Corp., which is part of a Los
Angeles, California headquartered group of companies doing business

websites across three major verticals. Both Autodata and Internet
Brands are Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. portfolio companies,
however, financing of the two businesses is discrete and ring
fenced.

period within which to file a plan and solicit acceptances is

The Troubled Company Reporter has previously reported that the
Debtor asked the Bankruptcy Court to extend its exclusive period to

exclusive period within which to solicit acceptances of a plan

Debtor estimated its assets and liabilities at $1 million to $10
million.

Debtor hired Alexander Dombrowsky, Esq., at Robert Allen Law, as

accountants.

An official committee of unsecured creditors has not been
appointed
in the case.


BILL BARRETT: Nets $100.3 Million From Stock Offering
-----------------------------------------------------
Bill Barrett Corporation disclosed in a Form 8-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission that the net proceeds from the
offering of shares of its common stock, not including any option
shares, will be approximately $100.3 million, after deducting the
underwriting discount and other offering expenses payable by the
Company.

The Company entered into an underwriting agreement with J.P. Morgan
Securities LLC, as representative of several underwriters, in
connection with the issuance and sale of 21,000,000 shares of the
Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share in a public
offering.  The closing of the sale of the Shares occurred on Dec.
8, 2017, at a purchase price per share paid to the Company of
$4.7875 (the offering price to the public of $5.00 per share minus
the Underwriters' discount of $0.2125 per share).  Pursuant to the
Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters an
option to purchase up to an additional 3,150,000 shares of common
stock for a period of 30 days from the date of the Prospectus (as
defined in the Underwriting Agreement).

The Shares were offered and sold pursuant to the Company's
effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No.
333-205230), previously filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations,
warranties and agreements by the Company and customary conditions
to closing, obligations of the parties and termination provisions.
Additionally, the Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters
against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act of 1933, or to contribute to payments the
Underwriters may be required to make due to any such liabilities.

The Underwriters or their affiliates have from time to time
provided investment banking, commercial banking and financial
advisory services to the Company, for which they have received
customary compensation.  The Underwriters and their affiliates may
provide similar services in the future.  In particular, affiliates
of certain of the underwriters are lenders under the Company's
revolving credit facility and an affiliate of J.P. Morgan
Securities LLC is the administrative agent under the Company's
revolving credit facility.  In addition, from time to time, the
Underwriters and their affiliates may effect transactions for their
own account or the account of customers, and hold on behalf of
themselves or their customers, long or short positions in the
Company's debt or equity securities or loans, and may do so in the
future.

As previously reported, on Dec. 4, 2017, the Company entered into
an Exchange Agreement with an unaffiliated third party that holds
outstanding 7% Senior Notes due 2022 issued by the Company.
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire
$50 million aggregate principal amount of 7% Senior Notes in
exchange for the issuance to the holder of 10,863,083 shares of the
Company's common stock.

Colorado -- http://www.billbarrettcorp.com/-- is an independent
energy company that develops, acquires and explores for oil and
natural gas resources.  All of its assets and operations are
located in the Rocky Mountain region of the United States.

Bill Barrett reported a net loss of $170.4 million on $178.8
million of total operating revenues for the year ended Dec. 31,
2016, compared to a net loss of $487.8 million on $207.9 million of

Sept. 30, 2017, the Company had $1.33 billion in total assets,
$815.49 million in total liabilities and $515.01 million in total

                           *    *    *

In April 2017, Moody's Investors Service upgraded Bill Barrett's
Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to 'Caa1' from 'Caa2' and its
existing senior unsecured notes' ratings to 'Caa2' from 'Caa3'.
"The upgrade of Bill Barrett's ratings is driven by the reduction
of default risk supported by the company's large cash balance and
improved debt maturity profile," said Prateek Reddy, Moody's lead
analyst.  "The company's credit metrics are likely to soften in
2017 because of the roll off of higher priced hedges, but the
metrics should strengthen along with production growth in 2018."

BOWMAN DAIRY: Needs Time to Evaluate Milk Market & File Plan
------------------------------------------------------------
Bowman Dairy Farms, LLC, requests the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Indiana to extend by 60 days, up to and
including February 24, 2018, the period within which it has the
exclusive right to file a plan, and up to and including April 24,
the period within which it has the exclusive right to solicit
acceptances of a plan.

To the extent the Court is not able to consider the request prior
to Dec. 26, 2017 -- the end of the Debtor's exclusive period to
file a plan -- and the Court subsequently determines to grant this
motion, the Debtor requests that such relief be entered on Dec.
26.

No other extensions of the Debtor's Exclusive Periods have been
requested by the Debtor. Absent an extension, the Debtor's
exclusive periods in which the Debtor has the exclusive right to
file a Chapter 11 plan and solicit acceptances of such plan will
expire on Dec. 26, 2017, and Feb. 24, 2018, respectively.

The Debtor relates that the severe volatility of milk prices has
continued for the past few years, and volatility is still in the
market.  Accordingly, the Debtor seeks additional time to better
formulate a reorganization plan that considers the milk market and
allows for the Debtor's continued operations as the Debtor may be
restructured.

The Debtor asserts that it has acted in good faith and is working
diligently to arrive at a consensual plan of reorganization -- a
plan that satisfies all confirmation requirements of section 1129
of the Bankruptcy Code.  Further, the Debtor claims that it is
current on its post-petition expenses, including payment of fees to
the U.S. Trustee.

Consequently, the Debtor believes that cause exists for extending
the Debtor's Exclusive Periods and that such extension will
facilitate an equitable resolution of this Chapter 11 Case.

CARESTREAM HEALTH: S&P Cuts Secured First-Lien Debt Rating to 'B'
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its issue-level rating on medical
imaging systems provider Carestream Health Inc.'s senior secured
first-lien debt to 'B' from 'B+' and removed the rating from
CreditWatch, where it was placed with negative implications on
April 21, 2017. S&P said, "We revised the recovery rating on this
debt to '3' from '2'. The '3' recovery rating indicates our
expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 60%)
recovery in the event of a payment default."

S&P said, "Our 'B' corporate credit rating on the company is
unchanged. The outlook is negative. Our 'B-' issue-level rating on
Carestream's second-lien debt is unchanged. The recovery rating on
this debt is '5'."

The downgrade on the first-lien debt follows Carestream's recently
completed divestiture of its dental digital segment and the
application of the proceeds coupled with available cash balances to
prepay $758 million of debt. The capital structure now consists of
a $150 million revolving credit facility of which $22.5 million due
June 2018 and the rest due June 2019, a $770 million first-lien
term loan, and a $372 million senior secured second-lien term loan,
due in June and December of 2019, respectively. The borrower of the
term loans is Onex Carestream Finance L.P. Carestream is the
borrower of the first-lien senior secured revolving credit
facility.

S&P said, "The '3' recovery rating on the first-lien debt indicates
our expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 60%)
recovery in the event of a payment default. The decrease in the
recovery prospects to 60% from 70% reflects our assessment of a
lower valuation based on our view that the remaining business is in
decline as well as the first-lien debt now represents a greater
proportion of the total capital structure.

"Our assessment of the company's business risk profile is based on
Carestream's narrow focus on medical imaging segment, its
concentration in film business that is subject to secular revenue
declines, and its relatively low EBITDA margins at around 15%.

"Our assessment of the financial risk profile reflects our
expectation for debt leverage to be about 4.5x, helped by
post-divestiture debt reduction and cost restructuring initiatives
launched by Carestream management.

"The company faces substantial maturities in June 2019. Absent
adequate resolution of the refinancing risk over the next 12 months
we would likely view the company's liquidity as inconsistent with
the 'B' rating.

"The negative outlook reflects the potential for a downgrade if the
company's performance falls materially below our base case or if
the company fails to refinance or extend approaching debt
maturities within the first half of 2018.

RECOVERY ANALYSIS

Key analytical factors:

The company's capital structure consists of a $150 million
revolving credit facility due 2018, a $770 million first-lien term
loan, and a $372 million senior secured second-lien term loan, due
in May and December of 2019, respectively. Carestream is the
borrower of the first-lien senior secured revolving credit
facility. Onex Carestream Finance L.P. is the borrower of the
first- and second-lien term loans.

Simulated default assumptions:

-- The simulated default scenario contemplates an accelerated
decline in traditional medical film and printing solutions combined
with weakness in the medical digital business.

-- S&P assumes the revolver is 85% drawn at the time of default.

-- A 150-basis-point increase in margin on the first-lien debt,
reflecting the credit deterioration under our default scenario and
a breach of the financial covenant.

-- Default year: 2019

-- Emergence EBITDA: $141 mil.

-- Emergence multiple: 5x

Simplified waterfall:

-- Net enterprise value (after 5% administrative costs): $668
mil.
-- Valuation split in % (obligors/nonobligors): 16/84
-- Collateral value available to first lien creditors: $472 mil.
-- Secured first-lien debt: $931 mil.
    --Recovery expectations: 50%-70%; rounded estimate: 60%
-- Value available to second-lien creditors: $91 mil.
-- Secured first-lien debt: $392 mil.
    --Recovery expectations: 10%-30%; rounded estimate: 20%
Note: All debt amounts include six months of prepetition interest.

CHINA FISHERY: Needs Until February 28 to Solicit Plan Acceptances
------------------------------------------------------------------
China Fishery Group Limited (Cayman) and its affiliates ask the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York to extend the exclusive period to
solicit acceptances of a chapter 11 plan for each Debtor through
and including February 28, 2018.

A hearing will be held on December 20, 2017, at 10:00 a.m. to
consider extending the exclusive solicitation period. Objections
must be filed by December 13.

The Debtors claim that they have discussed the requested extension
of the Exclusive Solicitation Period with the Chapter 11 Trustee,
who supports the extension request. The Debtors have also advised
the creditor constituents actively involved in the Chapter 11 Cases
that they would request an extension of the Exclusive Solicitation
Period until February 28, 2018, and no party raised an objection.

The Debtors relate that since February 2017, they have worked
diligently to engage their creditor constituents, the chapter 11
trustee for CFG Peru Singapore, and other parties-in-interest in an
effort to stabilize these Chapter 11 Cases and prosecute a viable
plan of reorganization.

In June 2017, after a contested evidentiary hearing, the Court
extended the Debtors' exclusive period to file plans until November
1, 2017, and exclusive period to solicit votes on such plans until
January 22, 2018, subject to the satisfaction of various
conditions.

On September 29, 2017, the Debtors filed:

     -- the Chapter 11 Plan of Pacific Andes International
        Holdings Limited (Bermuda) and Certain of Its
        Affiliated Debtors; and

     -- the Chapter 11 Plan of China Fishery Group Limited
        (Cayman), Pacific Andes Resources Development
        Limited (Bermuda), and Certain of their Affiliated
        Debtors, together with related Disclosure Statements.

The Debtors relate that they have structured the CFGL/PARD Plan to
complement the Chapter 11 Trustee's proposed sale process for CFG
Peru Singapore, after careful analysis of potential plan structures
and regular communication with the Chapter 11 Trustee.
Specifically, the treatment provided to creditors under the
CFGL/PARD Plan incorporates a toggle based on whether the Chapter
11 Trustee realizes a minimum sale price of $1.15 billion.
Therefore, The Debtors anticipate that the Chapter 11 Trustee's
sale process will move forward in tandem with the confirmation of
the plan.

Consequently, the timeline for confirmation of the CFGL/PARD Plan
is expected to move ahead in parallel with the Chapter 11 Trustee's
timeline for completing the sale process. The PAIH Plan is also
currently expected to proceed along a similar timeline.

Furthermore, and importantly, as the Court is aware, the Debtors
relate that they have been coordinating the chapter 11 plan process
with the Chapter 11 Trustee's sale efforts to streamline these
chapter 11 cases and avoid unnecessary litigation. Indeed, as the
Debtors have repeatedly stated, they continue to try to reach a
consensual resolution to these cases and believe, and understand
the Chapter 11 Trustee and creditors do as well, that moving
forward on a coordinated schedule is in all stakeholders' best
interest.

Moreover, the Chapter 11 Trustee has meaningfully advanced his sale
process since late August. However, as the Chapter 11 Trustee has
noted in open court, recent events have delayed his sale process,
including for example, a late start to the upcoming anchovy fishing
season and unanticipated delays in the Chapter 11 Trustee's 2016
audit.

In addition, as the Chapter 11 Trustee has also stated in open
court that he is actively negotiating with a number of bidders
interested in becoming the stalking horse bidder for his sale
process. As a result, the Chapter 11 Trustee filed a notice
extending the anticipated timeline for approval of a sale by moving
the sale hearing from December 20, 2017 to an undetermined future
date.

The extension of the Chapter 11 Trustee's sale timeline
necessitates a commensurate extension of the confirmation timeline
for the Plans, and, therefore, an extension of exclusivity. The
Debtors claim that they have met all deadlines set by the Court in
the Exclusivity Protocol established under the Court's last
extension of exclusivity and seek to extend the Exclusive
Solicitation Period to give the sale process the additional time
that the Chapter 11 Trustee has determined he needs.

           About China Fishery Group Limited (Cayman)

China Fishery Group Limited (Cayman) and its affiliates sought
protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y.
Lead Case No. 16-11895) on June 30, 2016. The petition was signed
by Ng Puay Yee, chief executive officer. The cases are assigned to
Judge James L. Garrity Jr.

At the time of the filing, China Fishery Group estimated its assets
at $500 million to $1 billion and debts at $10 million to $50
million.

Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP has been tapped to serve as lead
bankruptcy counsel for China Fishery and its affiliates other than
CFG Peru Investments Pte. Limited (Singapore). Weil Gotshal
replaces Meyer, Suozzi, English & Klein, P.C., the law firm
initially hired by the Debtors. The Debtors have also tapped
Klestadt Winters Jureller Southard & Stevens, LLP as conflict
counsel; Goldin Associates, LLC, as financial advisor; RSR
Consulting LLC as restructuring consultant; and Epiq Bankruptcy
Solutions, LLC, as administrative agent. Kwok Yih & Chan serves as
special counsel.

On Nov. 10, 2016, William Brandt, Jr., was appointed as Chapter 11
trustee for CFG Peru Investments Pte. Limited (Singapore), one of
the Debtors. Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP serves as the
trustee's bankruptcy counsel; Hogan Lovells US LLP serves as
special counsel; and Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP, serves
as special litigation counsel.


CLASSIC DEVELOPMENTS: Has Until April 10 to File Chapter 11 Plan
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Jerry A. Brown of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Louisiana has extended the period within which
Classic Developments by JMG LLC has the exclusive right to file a
plan of reorganization for a period of an additional 120 days, or
until April 10, 2018.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Nov. 14, 2017, the
Debtor asked the Court for plan exclusivity extension, assuring the
Court that it can propose a feasible plan of reorganization. The
Debtor believed that a reasonable prospect exists that it can
obtain confirmation of a plan within a reasonable period of time.

The Debtor said that its tract of residential property, including
the house located thereon, bearing municipal address 6872 Canal
Boulevard, New Orleans, Louisiana 70124, is currently leased to Ted
and Krystal Ginn, and is generating rental income for the Debtor.
Thus, by virtue of the Residential Lease, the Canal Property is
generating positive cash flow for the Debtor and the anticipated
and/or potential proceeds from an eventual sale of this property
may very well be sufficient to pay most, if not all, claims against
the estate.

Further, the Ginns, through their agent, have expressed an interest
in purchasing the property from the Debtor.  Since Mr. Ginn is
currently a player with the New Orleans Saints football team, and
has the financial means to pay $4,500 a month in rent, he more than
likely has the financial wherewithal to purchase the Canal Property
if he so desires.

The Debtor believed that the Ginns will need until the end of the
current National Football League's season before a firm decision
would be made as to whether they will purchase the Canal Property.
Moreover, sales of residential property tend to increase during the
spring-time season.

               About Classic Developments by JMG LLC

petition (Bankr. E.D. La. Case No. 17-11538) on June 14, 2017. The

filing, the Debtor had $500,000 to $1 million in estimated assets
and $100,000 to $500,000 in estimated liabilities.

Darryl T. Landwehr, Esq., at Landwehr Law Firm serves as bankruptcy
counsel.

                          *     *     *

As reported by the TCR on Nov. 8, 2017, S&P Global Ratings lowered
its corporate credit ratings on Atlanta-based Cumulus Media Inc.
and its subsidiary Cumulus Media Holdings Inc. to 'SD' (selective
default) from 'CCC'.  "The downgrade follows Cumulus' recent
announcement that it didn't make a $23.6 million interest payment
on its 7.75% senior notes due 2019.  The payment was due on Nov. 1.
We believe the company made the decision to not make the payment
in order to preserve cash or put pressure on its bondholders to
participate in a subpar debt exchange, given that it has sufficient
cash on hand to make the interest payment.  We also believe the
nonpayment signals that a restructuring, either out of court or
through an in court reorganization, is likely imminent.  We don't
expect the company to make the interest payment within the 30-day
grace period."

In April 2017, Moody's Investors Service downgraded Cumulus Media
Inc.'s Corporate Family Rating to 'Caa2' from 'Caa1', the secured
credit facilities to 'Caa1' from 'B3', and senior unsecured notes
to 'Ca' from 'Caa3'.  The outlook was changed to negative from
stable.  The downgrade reflects the elevated risk of a
restructuring of its balance sheet and its unsustainable leverage
level of 11.3x (excluding Moody's standard lease adjustments) as of
Q4 2016.


DELAWARE VALLEY UNIV.: Moody's Revises Ratings Outlook to Stable
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has revised the outlook on Delaware
Valley University, PA to stable from negative and affirmed the Ba1
on its revenue bonds. The rating action affects approximately $31
million of debt.

Ratings Rationale

The revision of outlook to stable from negative reflects resumed
growth in net tuition revenue - the largest source of revenue,
stronger liquidity, and ongoing improvement in operating
performance. The Ba1 rating is supported by university's niche in
sustainable agricultural and animal sciences, its relatively small
operating scale of $57 million, and limited flexible reserves.

Rating Outlook

The stable outlook incorporates Moody's expectations of effective
enrollment management, gradual growth in net tuition revenue, and
operating cash flow margins above 8% combined with modest growth of
spendable cash and investments.

Factors that Could Lead to an Upgrade

- Material growth in flexible reserves

- Significant improvement in operating performance

Factors that Could Lead to a Downgrade

- Decline in liquidity or weakening of operating performance
   given already thin reserves

- Inability to generate revenue growth or enrollment declines

Legal Security

The Series 2012 LL1 bonds are a general obligation of the
university, secured by a pledge and lien on all unrestricted
receipts and revenues. Additional security is provided by a debt
service reserve fund.

Use of Proceeds

Not applicable

Obligor Profile

Delaware Valley University is a small, private not-for-profit,
four-year residential university located in Doylestown, 27 miles
north of Philadelphia. The university's market niche in
agricultural and animal sciences attracts approximately 2,100
full-time equivalent students and generates $57 million of
operating revenue.

Methodology

The principal methodology used in this rating was Global Higher
Education published in November 2015.


DENBURY RESOURCES: S&P Cuts CCR to 'SD' on Note Exchange
--------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on Plano,
Texas-based Denbury Resources Inc. to 'SD' (selective default) from
'CC'. At the same time, S&P lowered its issue-level ratings on its
subordinated notes due 2022 and 2023 to 'D' from 'CC'.

The downgrade follows Denbury's announcement that it has closed a
privately negotiated agreement to exchange a portion of its senior
subordinated notes due 2022 and 2023 for new senior secured
second-lien notes and new senior convertible notes at a significant
discount to par. The company exchanged about $610 million principal
amount of existing notes for approximately $466 million principal
of new notes.

S&P said, "We view the transaction as a distressed exchange because
investors will receive less than promised on the original
securities. Additionally, we view the offer as distressed, rather
than purely opportunistic, given our view that the company has
limited growth opportunities in the current commodity price
environment and its debt leverage will remain high.

"The company subsequently announced a private tender offer to some
holders of its senior subordinated notes due 2021, 2022, and 2023
to exchange these securities for new senior secured second-lien and
new senior convertible notes at a 20% to 25% discount to par, which
we also view as a distressed exchange offer. We expect to review
the corporate credit and issue-level ratings after the final
settlement of the potential exchanges as part of this offer. We
will then re-assess the company's ratings in light of its new
capital structure, an updated reserve valuation, and the likelihood
of further debt exchanges."

ENVIRO-SAFE: Worldwide Buying 2008 Skyjack Lift for $12K
--------------------------------------------------------
Enviro-Safe Refrigerants, Inc., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Central District of Illinois to authorize the sale of 2008
Skyjack Lift outside the ordinary course of business to Worldwide
Construction for $12,000.

The Debtor no longer uses the Skyjack Lift in its operations.
After its own efforts marketing the equipment to potential third
party purchasers, it has received an offer to purchase the item
from the Buyer.

The Debtor believes that the amount offered is fair and reasonable,
and the highest price that it can obtain on the open market for the
used item.

As stated in prior pleadings and as referenced in prior orders of
the Court, two parties hold blanket perfected security interests of
the Debtor in its equipment: PNC National Bank N.A. and Busey Bank,
an Illinois Banking Corporation.  Both PNC and Busey have been made
aware of the surplus equipment sales anticipated in this case, and
have consented to such sales and also consented to the Debtor
retaining the sale proceeds for use in its ordinary course business
operations.

Therefore, Debtor asserts that the proposed sale is in the best
interests of the bankruptcy estate and request that it be approved.
Upon request and tender of a draft by Worldwide Construction, the
Debtor will obtain a release of the security interests of PNC and
Busey to the Skyjack Lift.  Upon request and tender of a draft by
Worldwide Construction, the Debtor will execute a bill of sale to
the Skyjack Lift.

extension of the deadline to file a plan of reorganization, as well
as the exclusive periods during which the Debtors may file a
chapter 11 plan and solicit acceptances thereof, to and including
January 29, 2018, and March 30, 2018, respectively.

This is the Debtors' sixth extension request.  A hearing on the
Debtors' sixth motion is set for December 13, 2017, at 10:00 a.m.

The Debtors submit that accomplishing a broader restructuring of
each entity is complex in light of the fact that each or some of
the Properties must be sold prior to the Debtors being able to pay
off creditors, and, necessarily prior to confirming a plan of
reorganization or liquidation (as the case may be).

The Debtors note that they have sold the EHL Property, the
Belvidere Property, the Esplanade Property, the 9501 Property, and
the "outlot" property.  The last sale closed on November 3, 2017,
and the Debtors state they need further time to review and work out
certain claims asserted against the Debtors, including by First
Midwest Bank ("FMB") and certain mechanic's lien claimants.

The Debtors relate that since the Petition Date, they have focused
on various critical issues related to their emergence from chapter
11, including among other things:

      (a) preparing their schedules and statements of
          financial affairs;

      (b) negotiating cash collateral use with FMB;

      (c) negotiating contracts with respect to certain
          Properties;

      (d) drafting and appearing in Court with respect
          to various sale motions related to the
          Properties; and

      (e) finalizing sales on the Properties.

As a result, the Debtors contend they have not been able to fully
formulate an effective chapter 11 plan or plans. As such, the
Debtors seek to extend the deadline to file a plan and related
exclusivity deadlines to afford them additional time to exclusively
formulate and implement a viable Plan.

In addition, the Debtors have thus far met each of the requirements
under the various cash collateral orders that have been entered in
these Chapter 11 Cases, including making interest-only payments to
FMB.

The Debtors believe that this extension of the Plan Deadline and
the Exclusive Periods will allow them the necessary time to focus
upon continuing on-going negotiations and proceeding toward a
viable plan that will enable the Debtors to exit bankruptcy.

EWT HOLDINGS III: S&P Rates 2024 $797MM First-Lien Term Loan 'B'
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'B' issue-level rating and '3'
recovery rating to U.S.-based water treatment technology,
equipment, and services provider EWT Holdings III Corp.'s  proposed
$797 million first-lien term loan due 2024. The '3' recovery rating
indicates our expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded
estimate: 55%) recovery for lenders in the event of a default.

Through this proposed issuance, the company plans to reprice and
extend the maturity of its first-lien term debt. Our recovery
analysis incorporates management's proposed increase of the
company's revolving credit facility, which will be extended to
2022, to a total facility amount of $125 million from $95 million
currently.

This transaction follows the company's recent IPO, in which
management used a portion of the proceeds from the offering to
repay debt. We believe that EWT will remain moderately acquisitive
and have incorporated a moderate level of annual acquisition
activity in our forecast. Still, we continue to expect that EWT's
leverage will decline toward the 5x area in fiscal-year 2018 (ended
Sept. 30, 2017) on organic revenue growth and additional EBITDA
from its recent acquisitions.

Key analytical factors

S&P said, "Our simulated default scenario assumes a default in 2020
due to margin pressures stemming from persistent operational
inefficiencies and increased competition, which cause the company
to lose market share in its highly fragmented industry.
"We have valued the company as a going concern using a 5x multiple
of our projected emergence EBITDA of about $108 million, which
results in a gross enterprise value of about $541 million.

"Our '3' recovery rating on EWT's first-lien senior secured
facilities indicates our expectation for meaningful (50%-70%;
rounded estimate: 55%) recovery because of the facilities' senior
secured standing in the capital structure and their first-priority
lien on the security package."

Simulated default assumptions

-- Simulated year of default: 2020
-- EBITDA at emergence: $108 million
-- EBITDA multiple: 5x
-- The revolving credit facility is 85% drawn at default.
-- All debt amounts include six months of prepetition interest.

Simplified waterfall

-- Net enterprise value (after 5% administrative costs): $514
million
-- Valuation split (obligors/nonobligors): 80%/20%
-- Priority claims: $15 million
-- Total value available to first-lien debt claims: $499.3
million
-- First-lien debt claims: $898.8 million
    --Recovery expectations: 50%-70% (rounded estimate: 55%)

FERHANA DESAI: Samazo Buying Gaithersburg Farm for $1.5 Million
---------------------------------------------------------------
Ferhana Desai asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Maryland to authorize the sale of real property located at 5600
Riggs Road, Gaithersburg, Maryland ("Farm") to Samazo Investments,
LLC for $1.5 million.

A hearing on the Motion is set for Jan. 18, 2018, at 2:00 p.m.
Objections, if any, must be filed not be less than 21 days for the
date of the notice.

The Debtor has two properties she owns: the first being her primary
residence at 710 Lake Veruna Mews, Gaithersburg, Maryland owned by
her, and the second being the Farm she owns with Akthar G. Mahomed.
The Farm property is a large property consisting of 62.59 acres.
It is zoned for agricultural usage.  The Debtor exerted extensive
efforts to sell and market the Farm through models involving a
wind/energy farm, an Islamic cemetery, and finally a sale model for
development by the Buyer.  The scheduled value of the Farm is
$571,000 by the SDAT however this is not reflective of true value
for development, but rather a purely agricultural basis for value.


The Debtor has filed a prior Chapter 11 case; namely, 15-11206 on
Jan. 28, 2015 which was previously dismissed.  That case involved
varying proposals described for the use and development of the
Farm.  The sale or development of the Farm in conjunction with one
of these proposals in the case was critical to the reorganization
because the security interest on the Farm held by Capital One was
cross collateralized on the Debtors Residence as a second loan.
Thus, satisfying that credit facility and secured claim in a way
that eliminates it was critical to the Debtor retaining her home.

Likewise, there is an IRS claim in the case which also needs to be
satisfied from the sale of the Farm.  The Chapter 11 case was filed
because the viability of a complex wind farm development simply
exceeded the scope of issues at hand.  In this case, the task was
simpler in one sense that the Debtor had a sale proposed for
development, but more complex in that it required significant due
diligence and contingencies.

The Debtor, the Co-Owner and the Buyer entered into Contract of
Sale.  The Co-Owner has agreed to the sale of the Farm under the
Contract, and has consented to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy
Court to sell his interest.

The Contract proposes the purchase of the Farm for $1.5 million,
free and clear of liens and encumbrances, by the Debtor and
Co-Owner to the Buyer.  The Contract presumes intended purpose for
a housing development.  It has several material contingencies; the
most significant of which are permitting and zoning, and financing
for the Buyer.  These have been extended for permitting and zoning
through Oct. 18, 2018, and as to financing through Dec. 31, 2018.
The Closing has been extended to Dec. 31, 2019.  Importantly to
disclosure, the permitting and zoning is more fully described at
the General Addendum which notes that the Contract contemplates 3
lots consisting of 2 x 5 acre residential lots, and 1 x 52
agricultural lot to be retained by the Debtor.

The Contract assumes financing for the Buyer of $1,125,000
conventional at 4.5% and cash of $375,000.  A $5,000 deposit was
presented and is being held by the Debtor, who as noted is a
realtor.  A feasibility study is permitted to the Buyer which was
to be completed within 240 days of ratification.  A percolation
test was permitted within 240 days of ratification.  These matters
are being suspended pending the zoning and permitting
contingencies, which have been extended.

The Buyer is entitled to be reimbursed for $77,000 in his expenses;
however, by General Addendum this only applies to the extent there
is equity from the sale after all liens and claims in the
bankruptcy case are paid.  Moreover, there is no Buyer
reimbursement right to the extent the Debtor cannot deliver title
to the Buyer.  Further, although the Debtor is a licensed real
estate agent, she is not receiving any commission from the sale.

A copy of the Contract attached to the Motion is available for free
at:

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/Ferhana_Desai_105_Sales.pdf

The Montgomery County Addendum denotes that the Buyer is paying all
of the transfer and recordation taxes; however, the Contract sale
will be presented for approval under the forthcoming Plan of
Reorganization and will be exempted from any and all transfer or
recordation taxes pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 1146.  The Debtor
proposes that through a Plan of Reorganization which will be filed
promptly the Contract within the Motion be approved for sale free
and clear of liens, claims and encumbrances or interests.  

Should the Contract fail to close, the Debtor will conduct a
nonabsolute auction of the Farm within 180 days of Contract release
to satisfy claims.  The Plan will propose that upon the entry of a
Confirmation Order, the case will be dismissed and the Debtor will
implement such reorganization following dismissal to avoid both
United States Trustee fees, and the complications of an ongoing
reorganization that is open with reporting that creates the
necessity of a pending case.  The Plan will propose that the case
will be reopened for the filing of a final report and request for
discharge and final decree.

The Debtor contemplates that the following claims will be satisfied
from the sale of the Farm and/or Cash Distributions following sale
of the Farm.  Firstly, Capital One which asserts an over secured
claim of $1,424,070 will be satisfied.  Secondly, the Internal
Revenue Service asserting a secured claim of $46,797 will be
satisfied.  Allowed Unsecured Claims such as Discover Bank at
$9,220, or BB&T at $3,403; and the United States Trustee at $650
will be paid in full at sale or under the Plan.  Thus, this is a
100% payment Plan on all allowed claims.  A Motion to Set Bar Date
for all disputed, contingent or unliquidated Claims will be filed
with the Plan of Reorganization so as to ensure that any such
claims not reflected on the Claims Docket will be allowed if proofs
of claim are filed.

J.P Morgan has filed an oversecured claim on the Residence of
$258,478 which the Debtor is satisfying and will continue to pay in
the ordinary course of business as her primary mortgage.  The
Debtor recognizes that any remaining debts from the Capital One
Claim or the Internal Revenue Claim will remain as liens on the
Residence after the sale of the Farm to the extent such secured
claims are not paid from the sale of the Farm in full.  Further, as
the Debtor is retaining an agricultural portion of the Farm under
the Contract that residual property will likewise remain subject to
the unpaid liens at closing if any exist.  A new lien in favor of
any unpaid allowed claims will issue on the residual unsold portion
of the Farm and the Residence.

FLORIDA DEVELOPMENT: Fitch Rates $600MM 2017 Revenue Bonds 'BB-'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned a 'BB-' rating to $600 million in series
2017 surface transportation facility revenue bonds (Brightline
Passenger Rail Project - South Segment) issued by the Florida
Development Finance Corporation on behalf of All Aboard Florida -
Operations LLC (dba Brightline Operations).

The Rating Outlook is Stable.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

Summary: All Aboard Florida - Operations LLC (AAF), doing business
as Brightline Operations (Brightline), is a privately owned and
operated intercity passenger rail service connecting the three key
cities in Southeast Florida (Miami, Fort Lauderdale and West Palm
Beach). The rating reflects Brightline's standing as a new-market,
U.S. luxury rail project that exhibits uncertain demand and revenue
generation potential. The rail line was constructed as a
semi-greenfield project and construction was substantially complete
in fourth quarter 2017. Service on the West Palm Beach (WPB) to
Fort Lauderdale (FTL) line is expected to start in December 2017,
with service from WPB to Miami starting the first quarter of 2018.

Uncertainty surrounding demand and willingness to pay constrains
this rating to non-investment grade. Favorably, Brightline is
targeting a small corridor market share of only 0.74% of trips in a
densely populated and congested service area that has a need for
additional transit options and demand for travel time-savings
associated with higher-speed rail. The 'BB-' rating is supported by
strong breakeven analysis, which shows under sponsor case
assumptions that Brightline achieves breakeven levels if stabilized
ridership is 41.5% lower than projected. Sufficient reserve funds
and a $50 million working capital revolver can support operations
even under a delayed ramp-up scenario of up to six years (2023
ridership stabilization).

Uncertain Demand
The Brightline luxury rail line will serve the growing southeast
region of Florida and be a much needed alternative to congested
surface transportation modes. Fitch views the region as
economically strong and diverse, with strong demographic
characteristics. However, given Brightline is a new service with no
ridership history that targets business and leisure traffic and has
no similar U.S. comparables, there is significant uncertainty
around ridership levels. The strong revenue generation of other
U.S. passenger rail services in intercity corridors, such as
Amtrak's Northeast Corridor (NEC) and the California Pacific
Surfliner, provide a good indication of Brightline's potential.
Amtrak's Acela service from D.C. to Boston generates almost $600
million in annual revenue with 2016 ridership of 3.5 million in a
constrained and competitive rail corridor. Brightline in contrast
is forecasting $147.6 million of revenue in 2021, the first year
after stabilization, and can breakeven with 2021 revenue of $93.5
million, based on ridership of 1.7 million and average fares
substantially lower than Acela.

Unilateral Rate-Setting Ability, Levels Untested
Brightline has the ability to set rates and implement rate
increases freely, independent of any legislative or political
interference. Proposed fare levels on a per mile basis are in line
with regional Florida Amtrak fares and substantially below the
Northeast Corridor's Acela line. With no history of rate increases,
price risk is considered midrange. Strong corridor demographics and
higher incomes support the initial fare proposals, but price
uncertainty remains given the lack of experience in the U.S. with a
similar quality service.

Experienced Operators Support Service
The project will be operated by experienced personnel, further
complemented by freight transportation personnel who have a long
history of successfully operating and maintaining a busy rail
corridor. A 30-year rail car supply and maintenance contract with
Siemens Industries, which includes a parent company guarantee
(Siemens AG, rated A/Stable), adds further strength to the
project's operational attributes. The operating cost profile is
deemed manageable by the independent engineer (IE), Louis Berger.

Growth-Dependent Debt Structure
The revenue bonds are fully amortizing, fixed rate senior debt. A
flat debt service profile and amortization beginning in 2026 may
put strain on the issuer's financial profile if Brightline's
ramp-up period is longer than expected. The issuance of parity
debt, with the exception of a working capital revolver not to
exceed $50 million, is restricted. Phase II of the project will be
funded separately. An equity distribution test of 1.75x DSCR and a
six-month debt service reserve fund provide additional
protections.

Financial Profile
Given the uncertainty surrounding ridership and ramp-up, Fitch
analyzed multiple ramp-up and breakeven scenarios. Under the
sponsor case, ridership is able to sustain a 41.5% decrease after
stabilization and still maintain at least a 1.0x debt service
coverage ratio (DSCR), using unrestricted funds (including working
capital revolver) when needed. When performing the same analysis
under a delayed ramp-up scenario with stabilization occurring in
2022, ridership is able to sustain a 38.3% decrease and still
maintain at least a 1.0x DSCR, using unrestricted funds when
needed. A 38.3% decrease in ridership results in only a 0.5% share
of the addressable market.

PEER GROUP
Fitch does not publicly rate any rail services that would be a
close peer to Brightline. Other rated rail service within Fitch's
global portfolio have been operational for a number of years with
tested demand and stable ridership, which removes the inherent risk
seen in Brightline's service and accounts for the higher ratings.
Publically-rated European rail lines include the City Greenwich
Lewisham Rail Link plc (CGLR; BBB+/Positive) and Channel Link
Enterprise Finance plc (CLEF; BBB/Stable). Both CGLR and CLEF have
been operational for nearly three decades with stabilized passenger
levels and clearer volume and market share certainty leading to
investment grade ratings.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

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

-- Underperformance from either ridership or revenue that results
    in metrics that are materially below Fitch's rating case.

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

-- Sustained long-term ridership levels or revenues in line with
    or outperforming the sponsor's forecast.


FOC INC: Proposes a Sale of FTI's 8K Stocks in Casey's
------------------------------------------------------
FOC, Inc., and affiliates, ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Iowa to authorize the sale of F Trans, Inc.'s
8,000 shares of stock in Casey's General Stores, Inc. outside the
ordinary course of business.

The Casey's stock trades on the NASDAQ and, as of the date of the
Motion, the Casey's stock is valued at $123.43 per share.

FTI asks authority to sell the Stock without further notice or
hearing if and when it believes it is in its best business interest
to do so.  The current price for the Stock is high, and FTI asks
the ability to sell the Stock, and in doing so turn it into cash.

FTI will deposit the proceeds from the sale of the Stock, if it
sells the Stock, into its DIP bank account.

                    About FOC

FOC, Inc. sought Chapter 11 protection (Bankr. N.D. Iowa Case No.
17-00466), together with RLP, LLC, FER, Inc., and F Trans, Inc., on
April 24, 2017.  CEF Energy, LLC and Dawson Oil Co., LLC together
with the First Petitioners, files their Petitions for relief
pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on June 8, 2017.

On May 12, 2017, the United States Trustee established a Creditors'
Committee only for the FOC case.

On July 7, 2017, the Court entered an order jointly administering
all of the Debtors' Cases.


FR DIXIE: S&P Lowers CCR to 'CCC' on Weakened Liquidity
-------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on FR Dixie
Acquisition Corp. to 'CCC' from 'CCC+'. The outlook is negative.

S&P said, "At the same time, we lowered our issue-level ratings on
the company's senior secured revolver and term-loan to 'CCC' from
'CCC+'. Our '3' recovery ratings on the debt remains unchanged,
indicating our expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded
estimate: 50%) recovery in the event of a payment default.

"The downgrade reflects our view of FR Dixie's near-term liquidity
and refinancing risk, given the maturity of the company's revolving
credit facility over the next year. Since the company's revolving
credit facility matures in approximately 12 months, we now view the
$16.5 million drawn under the company's revolver as a near-term
obligation and a use of liquidity in our analysis, which further
constrains its liquidity position (given the company's low cash
balance as of September 30, 2017). To reflect these concerns, we
have revised our assessment of Dixie's liquidity to weak. The
rating action reflects that absent a successful refinancing of the
company's revolver, we believe that the company will default
without an unforeseen positive development over the next 12
months.

"The negative outlook reflects that the company may be unable to
successfully refinance its credit facility due December 2018. We
expect Dixie's credit measures to remain weak over the next 12
months, given soft near-term prospects for the U.S. domestic oil
field businesses they serve.

"We could lower our ratings on Dixie if we believe that a default,
distressed exchange, or redemption appears to be inevitable within
six months, absent unanticipated significantly favorable changes in
the issuer's circumstances. In addition, we would lower our ratings
to 'D' or 'SD' if the company misses a cash payment or enters into
a transaction that we could classify as a distressed exchange.

"Alternatively, we could revise our outlook to developing if we
come to believe that the company has reasonable near-term prospects
to refinance the revolver."


FYNDERS INC: MDOR to Receive $4.4K in 50 Months Under New Plan
--------------------------------------------------------------
Fynders, Inc., and Keepers, Inc., filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Massachusetts a first amended joint
disclosure statement with respect to their chapter 11 plan of
reorganization dated Nov. 30, 2017.

Under the latest Plan, Fynders asserts that the accurate amount of
the Class 3A secured and priority tax claims of the Massachusetts
Department of Revenue and the Massachusetts Department of
Unemployment Assistance are as follows:

   MDOR -- $189,908.86; and
   DUA -- $79,090.54.

Based upon the amount of the tax claims asserted by Fynders, the
taxing authorities will now receive 50 equal monthly payments in
the following amounts:

   (i) IRS - $5,316.60;
  (ii) MDOR - $4,478.84;
(iii) DUA - $1,865.28; and

GENERAL CABLE: S&P Places 'B' CCR on Watch Pos. on Prysmian Deals
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings placed its 'B' corporate credit rating on
General Cable Corp. on CreditWatch with positive implications.

S&P said, "At the same time, we placed our 'B' issue-level rating
on General Cable's 5.75% senior unsecured notes and our 'CCC+'
issue-level rating on the company's 2029 subordinated notes on
CreditWatch with positive implications.

"The CreditWatch placement follows the announcement that the
Prysmian Group plans to acquire General Cable and our careful
consideration of the information available to us.

"If the acquisition is completed as proposed, General Cable will
survive as a legal entity, controlled 100% by the Prysmian Group,
which we believe has a better credit profile. General Cable's
existing debt also will be repaid in full upon the close of the
transaction. As such, we could raise the ratings on General Cable,
depending on the company's strategic importance within the Prysmian
Group."

Prysmian expects to close the transaction by the third quarter of
2018. The transaction, which has been approved by each company's
board of directors, is subject to General Cable's shareholders'
approval, regulatory approvals, and other customary conditions.

The transaction, which values General Cable at approximately $3
billion, will be financed through a mix of new debt, for which
Prysmian has received lender commitment; cash on hand; and existing
credit lines. The company says it has pro forma net leverage for
the combined group of 2.9x on a last 12 months Sept. 30, 2017
basis, compared to the 0.8x net leverage of the Prysmian
stand-alone at 2016 year-end.

S&P said, "We will resolve the CreditWatch as key transaction
milestones are achieved, including the approval of General Cable's
shareholders and regulatory approvals. Once the transaction is
closed, and we assess the company's status within the combined
group, we could raise our ratings on General Cable. We will likely
affirm our rating on General Cable at 'B' if the transaction does
not proceed."


GENON ENERGY: US Trustee Objects to Debtors' Global Settlement
--------------------------------------------------------------
BankruptcyData.com reported that the U.S. Trustee assigned to the
GenOn Energy case filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court an objection
to the Company's global settlement. The Trustee asserts, "The
United States Trustee appreciates the desire of the GAG Noteholders
to be compensated for any delay and does not object to the increase
in payout to the GAG Noteholders under the plan of reorganization
in this case related to any delay. The proposed order, however,
provides that the GAG Noteholders will receive an administrative
expense claim in the amount of their proposed plan treatment,
irrespective of whether the Plan is confirmed. Thus, if the
proposed order were entered before confirmation of a plan, this
compromise would elevate one group of unsecured creditors (the GAG
Noteholders) to administrative status while leaving other unsecured
creditors (the general unsecured creditors) in their current
status. The Debtors might pay one group of unsecured creditors
before confirmation, while another group of unsecured creditors
remains unpaid. If the case were never confirmed and converted to
chapter 7, the GAG Noteholders would be in a better position than
the general unsecured creditors. The Debtors have not cited any
authority for converting a class of unsecured creditors to
administrative status prior to confirmation."

GILES REPLOGLE: Fox Harwood Buying Personal Property for $900K
--------------------------------------------------------------
Giles Nathan Replogle and Betty Carroll Replogle ask the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Tennessee to authorize
the (i) lease of the real estate of affiliated Debtors Replogle
Hardwood Flooring Co., LLC and Replogle Enterprises G.P. to Fox
Hardwood Co., LLC or its assignee; (ii) sale of their personal
property, along with all the personal property owned by Replogle
Hardwood and Replogle Enterprises, except that the real estate
comprising the purchased assets, to Fox or its assignee, for
$900,000.

The Amended Letter of Intent, among other things, proposes a lease
of the Real Property that comprised the Purchased Assets.  The
Amended LOI replaces and supersedes the LOI attached to the Motion.


The Debtors propose to lease the Real Property instead of selling
it to the Buyer at this time.  The parties anticipate entering into
a sale transaction after the completion of an environmental
assessment, the unknown results of which require a lease instead of
a purchase at the time.  Upon entry of an order approving the sale
of the Motion, the Debtors and the Buyer intend to execute the
lease agreement.  The Amended LOI identifies the extent of the Real
Property that is subject to a lease and potential acquisition.

Subject to the contingencies, Fox would proceed as follows:

     A. With regard to the personal property, Personal Property
NEWCO would proceed as follows:

          a. Acquire the following personal property:

               i. All personal property of Replogle Enterprises:
This would include all personal property located at the real
property leased or acquired by Real Property NEWCO even if such
personal property is not listed on the asset list.

               ii. All personal property of Replogle Hardwood
Flooring.  This would include all personal property located at the
real property leased or acquired by Real Property NEWCO even if
such personal property is not listed on the asset list.

               iii. All personal property of Nathan and Betty
Replogle, except for the property listed under "personal assets"
(in other words, Fox would purchase all the personal property used
in the operations of the business).

          b. Personal Property NEWCO would pay $500,000 for the
"new" saw mill line (the line that is operational) and $400,000 for
the balance of the personal property, for a total consideration of
$900,000.

          c. The acquisition of personal property would occur
immediately (i.e. concurrently with the commencement of the lease
of real property but prior to any sale of real property).

     B. With regard to the real estate, in order to allow for an
environmental assessment, Real Property NEWCO would first lease the
real estate during the period of the assessment, followed by a
potential purchase dependent on the results of the assessment:

          a. Real Property NEWCO would first lease, and then
potentially acquire, the following real estate:

               i. Hardwood Showroom, disclosed on p. 15 of 57 of
Replogle Hardwood Flooring Company, LLC petition.

               ii. The property highlighted on Exhibit A, from
pages 17-21 of the Nathan and Betty Replogle bankruptcy petition.

               iii. Any other real estate used in the operations of
the business.

          b. The rent under the lease would be $2,000/month.

          c. The purchase price for the real estate would be
$400,000 less the cost of the environmental assessment(s) and any
remediation.

The purchase of personal property, and the potential purchase of
real property, would be on a free-and-clear basis and subject to
other customary protections for a purchaser at a Section 363 sale.

attached to the Motion is available for free at:

HALT MEDICAL: Wants Plan Exclusivity Extended to Feb. 6
-------------------------------------------------------
Halt Medical, Inc. (now known as HMI Liquidating Inc.) requests the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to extend the
period within which it has the exclusive right to file a chapter 11
plan by 60 days through February 6, 2018, and to solicit
acceptances for the plan through April 9, 2018.

By order entered on June 8, 2017, the Court approved the sale of
substantially all of the Debtor's assets. The sale closed on June
23.  With the sale process completed, the Debtor has been
conducting wind-down activities with a view to concluding its
Chapter 11 Case promptly.

Although most of the Debtor's contingencies are behind it, certain
additional matters still need to be addressed with the Debtor’s
stakeholders.  However, pursuant to a prior order entered by the
Court, the Plan Period for the Debtor was set to expire December 8,
2017, and the Solicitation Period is set to expire February 6,
2018.

The Debtor claims that it is still in the process of preparing a
chapter 11 plan to wind down its bankruptcy case. The Debtor
submits that the requested extensions will foster an efficient plan
process, allowing the Debtor to complete its plan and negotiate
with key stakeholders without upsetting the balance intended by the
plan exclusivity accorded to a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code.

U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Laurie Selber Silverstein approved the sale
of the Debtor's assets to its post-petition lender, Acessa AssetCo
LLC.  The buyer served as stalking horse bidder and was the lone
bidder.

According to a Bankruptcy Law360 report, Halt Medical sought
bankruptcy protection in April with $156.3 million in debt. The
Chapter 11 filing followed an abrupt cutoff of financing by
longtime private equity investor American Capital Ltd., which
itself was acquired by Ares Capital Ltd.

The DIP lender and stalking horse bidder is represented by Adam
Landis and Kerri Mumford of Landis Rath & Cobb LLP.


HEALTH DIAGNOSTIC: Panel Wants Permanent Liquidating Trustee
------------------------------------------------------------
The HDL Liquidating Trust Oversight Committee and Richard
Arrowsmith, in his capacity as Liquidating Trustee of the HDL
Liquidating Trust, ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court to appoint a
permanent liquidating trustee in the Chapter 11 case of Health
Diagnostic Laboratory, Inc., and its affiliates, and to extend
claims objection deadline in support of the motion.

The Debtor tells the Court that the appointment of Mr. Arrowsmith
as permanent liquidating trustee is the most practicable and
economically prudent choice due to his intimate involvement in the
Chapter 11 cases.  It would take time and significant estate
resources to bring a new candidate current on all matters necessary
to administer the estate properly.  Accordingly, the appointment of
Richard Arrowsmith as permanent liquidating trustee is the most
appropriate course of action.

Additionally, cause exists to extend the claims objection deadline
of Jan. 2, 2018, to July 1, 2018.  The Debtor says that it is
imperative for the Liquidating Trustee to have adequate time to
review, reconcile and resolve the hundreds of claims that have been
filed against the Debtor.  The holders of the claims will not be
prejudiced by such an extension, and in fact will benefit from the
additional time afforded to the Liquidating Trustee to evaluate all
claims adequately.

HERALD MEDIA: Wants Up To $500,000 DIP Financing From Gatehouse
---------------------------------------------------------------
Herald Media Holdings, Inc., and its affiliates seek permission
from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to
obtain a super-priority post-petition financing consisting of a
term loan in a principal amount of up to $500,000 from Gatehouse
Media Massachusetts I, Inc.

In the ordinary course of business, the Debtors require cash on
hand and cash flow from their operations to fund their liquidity
needs and operate their businesses.  In addition, the Debtors
require access to sufficient liquidity to fund these Chapter 11
cases while working towards a successful sale transaction.
Post-petition financing is necessary in order for the Debtors to
have access to sufficient liquidity to maintain ongoing day-to-day
operations, ensure proper servicing of customers post-petition, and
fund working capital needs.  Absent post-petition financing, the
Debtors might be forced to wind-down their operations due to a lack
of funds.

The Debtors to grant to the DIP Lender assurances for the full and
timely payment of the Debtors' obligations under the DIP Facility
by granting to the DIP Lender (i) pursuant to Section 364(c)(1) of
the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, a superpriority administrative expense
claim having priority over any and all expenses and claims
specified in any other section of the Bankruptcy Code, including,
without limitation, Sections 503(b) and 507(b) of the Bankruptcy
Code, and (ii) pursuant to Section 364(c)(2), (3) and (d) of the
Bankruptcy Code, liens on, and security interests in, any and all
of the collateral, subject only to the permitted liens.

On Dec. 7, 2017, the Debtors entered into an asset purchase
agreement with the Lender.  The Stalking Horse APA evidences a
value-maximizing bid with an all-in value of not less than $5
million including a cash component of $4.50 million, plus
assumption of certain liabilities including not less than $500,000
of employee paid time off and the payment of defined cure amounts
by the Stalking Horse Bidder, for substantially all of the assets
of the Debtors, subject to competitive bids.  The Stalking Horse
APA recites that the Lender has agreed to provide the Debtors with
a DIP Loan up to a maximum principal amount of $500,000, subject to
final approval of the Court prior to the Debtors drawing any
amounts thereon.

Certain customary and other conditions precedent to extensions of
credit, including, among other things: (a) execution of loan
documents in form and substance in all respects acceptable to DIP
Lender; (b) entry of the final DIP court order, (c) entry of the
Final Sale Procedures Order; (d) payment of certain fees required
by the DIP Credit Agreement, (e) DIP Lender's receipt and approval
of an approved budget in form and substance acceptable to the DIP
Lender in its sole and absolute discretion; (f) each Draw Term Loan
will be limited to, and not be inconsistent with, the Approved
Budget; and (g) no Default or Event of Default, as defined in the

filing or support by the borrowers of a plan of reorganization that
does not provide for the indefeasible payment in full in cash of
all DIP Loans and all other DIP Obligations, or (vi) June 30, 2018.


The outstanding DIP Obligations will bear interest at a rate equal
to 6% per annum, payable at the Maturity Date.  The default
interest rate is an additional fixed rate of interest equal to 4%
per annum.

In connection with the DIP Facility, the DIP Lender will be
entitled to receive a commitment fee of $25,000 in the aggregate.
The Commitment Fee will be earned in full on the DIP Closing Date,
and will be payable in cash to the DIP Lender on the Maturity
Date.

To the extent the DIP Facility Liens do not satisfy the DIP
Obligations, the DIP Lender will be granted allowed superpriority
administrative claims pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section
364(c)(1), which claims will have priority in right of payment over
any and all other obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of the
Debtors, now in existence or hereafter incurred by the Debtors and
over any and all administrative expenses or priority claims of the
kind specified in, or ordered pursuant to, inter alia, Sections
105, 326, 328, 330, 331, 503(b), 507(a), 507(b), and/or 364(c)(1)
of the Bankruptcy Code, whether or not the expenses or claims may
become secured by a judgment lien or other non-consensual lien,
levy or attachment, which allowed claims will be payable from and
have recourse to all pre- and post-petition property of the Debtors
and all proceeds thereof, provided, however, that the
Super-Priority Claims will exclude proceeds of avoidance actions
under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code which will not be made
available to pay the Super-Priority Claims.

As security for the DIP Obligations, the DIP Lender will be granted
the DIP Facility Liens in the following DIP Collateral:   

     -- pursuant to Bankruptcy Code § 364(c)(2), valid,
perfected,
        enforceable and non-avoidable first priority liens on and
        security interests, in all now owned or hereafter acquired
        assets and property of the Debtors, excluding, Avoidance
        Actions and proceeds of Avoidance Actions upon entry of
        the Final DIP Order; and

     -- pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 364(c)(3), valid,
        perfected, enforceable and non- avoidable second priority
        or other junior liens on and security interests in all now

        owned or hereafter acquired assets and property of the
        Debtors that are subject to specified permitted liens, to
        be set forth on a Schedule to the DIP Credit Agreement or
        to valid liens in existence on the Petition Date that are
        perfected subsequent to such commencement as permitted by
        Bankruptcy Code Section 546(b).

The DIP Collateral will also include any and all rents, issues,
products, offspring, proceeds and profits generated by any item of
DIP Collateral, without the necessity of any further action of any
kind or nature by the DIP Lender in order to claim or perfect such
rents, issues, products, offspring, proceeds and profits.

The DIP Documentation will require the Debtors to comply with the
following restructuring milestones:

    (i) within three Business Days of the Petition Date, file
        the motion to conduct the sale of all or substantially
        all of the Debtors' assets and to approve bidding
        procedures for the sale of all or substantially all of the

        Debtors' assets;

   (ii) obtain court approval of (x) the Bid Procedures within 30
        days of the Petition Date, and (y) the Final DIP Order
        within 45 days of the Petition Date;

  (iii) obtain court approval of the Sale Motion no later than 60
        days after entry of approval of the Bid Procedures; and

   (iv) close the sale of the Collateral and indefeasibly and
        finally pay the DIP Facility Obligations in full, in cash,

        at the closing of the Sale, no later than June 30, 2018.

The Debtors engaged Dirks, Van Essen & Murray to market
substantially all of the Debtors' assets for sale.

The Stalking Horse APA preserves the Debtors' business as a going
concern and provides that many of the Debtors' employees will have
the ability to keep their jobs.  The Stalking Horse APA is not
conditioned on financing or the completion of due diligence.  It is
conditioned on approval by the Court of the bidding, auction, and
sale procedures, including post-petition marketing and competitive
bidding, in consultation with the United States Trustee and any
official committee appointed in these Chapter 11 Cases.

The Debtors have no long-term funded debt.  The only asset of the
Debtors subject to any security interest is a deposit at Citizens
Bank.  The Debtors were required to deposit the funds as collateral
for a letter of credit from Citizens Bank.  National Union Fire
Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, PA, et al., required the posting
of the letter of credit in the amount of approximately $159,000 in
2006 in connection with self-insurance losses.  The debt balance in
the account remains approximately $159,000.  Under the final court
order, the Lender would not obtain a priming lien senior to Citizen
Bank's interest in the deposit account.

HUDSON'S BAY CO: S&P Alters Outlook to Neg on Increased Challenges
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it revised its outlook on Hudson's Bay Co.
(HBC) to negative from stable. At the same time, S&P Global Ratings
affirmed its 'B' long-term corporate credit rating on the company.


In addition, S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB-' issue-level
rating, with a '1' recovery rating, on HBC's term loan B. A '1'
recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation of very high (90%-100%:
rounded estimate 95%) recovery in default.

S&P said, "Our negative outlook on HBC reflects the company's
declining EBITDA, negative free cash flow, and weaker
EBITDA-to-interest coverage, indicating the secular decline
department store operators are facing. Despite all the transactions
the company has recently engaged in to shore up its liquidity,
industry headwinds continue to buffet HBC's retail operations.
Changing shopping habits, including lower consumer spending on
apparel, declining mall traffic, and the shift to online and
off-price retailers that offer convenience and value, will continue
to weigh on performance. Top-line revenues and EBITDA margins have
continued to decline, pressuring EBITDA-to-interest coverage at
about 1.8x and leading to a significant free cash flow deficit.
These measures could show some improvement in 2018 due to cost
savings and improved working capital management but the risk
remains that any benefits might not be sufficient to offset any
material revenue decline.

"The negative outlook reflects our view that in spite of shoring up
liquidity, HBC will continue to face secular pressure from online
retailers that will stress cash flow. In our view, there is
increased risk that the company's EBITDA-to-interest will weaken
below 1.5x over the next 12 months if industry weakness continues
to pressure revenues and EBITDA.

"We could lower the ratings if EBITDA-to-interest coverage weakens
below 1.5x, which we believe could translate into higher free cash
burn, notwithstanding the company's good flexibility on capital
expenditures. In such a scenario, we would expect flat-to-negative
comparable-store sales or declining EBITDA. We could also lower the
ratings if HBC's strong asset coverage weakens--this could occur if
the company monetizes real estate but continues with its cash burn
with no reduction in reported debt leverage.

"We could revise the outlook to stable in the next year, if HBC's
comparable-store sales and EBITDA margins improve such that the
company increases and sustains adjusted EBITDA-to-interest coverage
to about 2x. To consider a stable outlook, we would also need to
assess HBC's success in reducing costs and enhancing omni-channel
capabilities through 2018."


INSTITUTE OF CARDIOVASCULAR: Plan Filing Period Moved to Feb. 12
----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Jerry A. Funk of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle
District of Florida extended the exclusive period in which
Institute of Cardiovascular Excellence, PLLC and its affiliates may
file a plan and disclosure statement, and solicit acceptances of
its plan, through February 12 and April 16, 2018, respectively.

The Troubled Company Reporter has previously reported that the
Debtors sought for 90-day extension of their exclusivity periods.
The Debtors said although the sale process of their assets has been
completed, they were still continuing to examine claims and
possible objections, and the dispositions will have material
impacts on the plan.

In addition, the Debtors claimed that they are attempting to
collect all receivables for the estate. Once the funds retrieved
are more certain, and the administrative costs are ascertained. The
Debtors assured the Court that they will be in a better position to
determine whether significant distributions to unsecured creditors
will be made.

JAMES BUSCHENA: Sale of Murray County Property for $808K Approved
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Katherine A. Constantine of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Minnesota authorized James Roland and Wendy Louise
Buschena to sell their fee title interest in real property in
Murray County, Minnesota, to Bank of the West for $807,500, to be
credited against its claims against the Debtors.

The sale is free and clear of the liens, claims and encumbrances of
Bank of the West.  The sale is not free and clear of any other

Thovson's leasehold interest in the Property, and any real estate
tax liens.

Bank of the West may pay for the Property by crediting the amount
of the purchase price against Bank of the West's claims against the
Debtors pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 363(k).

protection (Bankr. D. Minn. Case No. 16-32428) on Aug. 2, 2016.

The sale proceeds will be escrowed for the benefit of the Creditor

LD INTERMEDIATE: Moody's Lowers CFR to Caa1; Outlook Negative
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded LD Intermediate Holdings,
Inc.'s (dba "KrolLDiscovery") Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to Caa1
from B3 and its Probability of Default Rating to Caa1-PD from B3-P-
D. Moody's also downgraded the company's first- and second-lien
credit facilities, to B3 from B2, and to Caa3 from Caa2,
respectively. The ratings outlook is negative.

The downgrade to Caa1 and negative outlook reflect
weaker-than-expected operating performance following the
acquisition of Kroll Ontrack in December 2016, as well as Moody's
view that KrolLDiscovery's financial risk profile will remain
elevated over the next 12-18 months given the company's high debt
leverage and weak liquidity. The company's underperformance is
being driven by weak sales and profitability of the Kroll Ontrack
business, where pricing reductions on long-term subscription
renewals and a less robust sales pipeline contributed to revenue
declines and profitability erosion in the first half of 2017.
Moody's estimates that KrolLDiscovery's total debt-to-EBITDA
(Moody's adjusted and excluding unrealized synergies) was
approximately 8.4 times and (EBITDA-capex)-to-interest expense was
around 0.7 times as of June 30, 2017.

Moody's remains concerned with the company's ability to reverse
negative operating trends and improve cash flow generation given
current headwinds in the e-discovery market, which is characterized
by fewer large legal cases and increasing competitive pressures.
While the management team has identified new synergy opportunities
to offset lower revenues, Moody's expects the company will need to
rely on an undersized revolving credit facility for cash needs, and
its liquidity will remain weak over the next twelve months.

Moody's took the following rating actions on LD Intermediate
Holdings, Inc.:

-- Corporate Family Rating, downgraded to Caa1 from B3

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

-- $30 million first lien senior secured revolving credit
    facility due December 2021, downgraded to B3 (LGD3) from B2
    (LGD3)

-- $340 million (approximately $336 million outstanding) first
    lien senior secured term loan due December 2022, downgraded to

    B3 (LGD3) from B2 (LGD3)

-- $125 million second lien senior secured term loan due December

    2023, downgraded to Caa3 (LGD5) from Caa2 (LGD5)

-- Outlook, changed to negative.

RATINGS RATIONALE

KrolLDiscovery's Caa1 CFR reflects the company's operating
challenges, weak credit metrics, recent management turnover, and
Moody's expectation that liquidity sources will remain limited over
the next twelve months. The rating is constrained by
KrolLDiscovery's relatively modest size, narrow product focus, as
well as its operating within a mature, highly fragmented, and labor
intensive market. While the e-discovery market exhibited strong
growth over the past several years, it remains intensely
competitive, marked by consolidation, declining prices, and
substantial ongoing capital expenditures necessary for eDiscovery
vendors to add functionality that can keep pace with the explosive
growth of digital information. Despite its modest size,
KrolLDiscovery is the e-discovery industry's number-two player
behind DTI, Inc., which is more than three times the size of
KrolLDiscovery. The ratings are supported by the company's good
competitive position, extended geographic footprint, product
diversity, and the potential to realize meaningful synergies.

KrolLDiscovery generates about a fifth of its revenues from outside
the U.S. and offers data recovery and destruction services. The
company's legal technology solutions support the full lifecycle of
the litigation process, from data collection and processing,
through hosting and review. KrolLDiscovery has long-standing
relationships with its key clients and enjoys high revenue
retention.

The negative outlook reflects uncertainty around management's
ability to generate sustained positive free cash flow and reduce
reliance on its revolving credit facility, which at present is
roughly 50% drawn. The outlook also reflects Moody's expectation
that growth demand for e-discovery services is likely to remain
tepid which will limit credit metrics and liquidity improvement
over the next 12 months.

KrolLDiscovery's rating could be downgraded if the company
experiences continued declining earnings, or if improvements in
profitability are delayed resulting in weaker liquidity or an
increase in debt to support operations.

While unlikely in the near term, the rating could be upgraded if
the company were able to maintain at least adequate liquidity and
demonstrate sustained growth in revenues and earnings. The ability
to sustain credit metrics such as debt-to-EBITDA (Moody's adjusted)
of less than 7.5 times and (EBITDA-capex)-to-interest expense
(Moody's adjusted) in excess of 1.0 time could support higher
ratings.

Maclean, VA-based KrolLDiscovery provides electronic-discovery
services to corporations, law firms, and government agencies, in
support of their litigation efforts. Moody's estimates the company
will generate 2017 revenues of approximately $280 million.
KrolLDiscovery is majority-owned by The Carlyle Group.

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


LEHMAN BROTHERS UK: Needs Additional Time to Review Claims
----------------------------------------------------------
Lehman Brothers U.K. Holdings (Delaware) Inc. and Lehman
Pass-Through Securities Inc. request the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York for an extension of the periods
within which they have the exclusive right to file a Chapter 11 and
solicit acceptances for the Plan through and including March 29 and
May 28, 2018, respectively.

The Debtors asserts that the extension of the Exclusive Periods in
these chapter 11 cases is appropriate, in the best interest of the
Debtors' economic stakeholders, and  consistent with the intent and
purpose of chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtors submit that the general claims bar date has passed,
resulting in the filing of only three unscheduled claims. However,
the governmental bar date has been established as February 27,
2018.

Accordingly, the Debtors aver that an extension of the Exclusive
Periods will permit the Debtors to prosecute a plan with a complete
understanding of the claims asserted against them -- a critical
element of their restructuring and necessary to have the support of
all economically interested parties and maximize value. The Debtors
also assert that no party will be prejudiced by the extension of
the Exclusive Periods.

This is the Debtors' first request for extensions of the Exclusive
Periods. The Debtors assert that they are not plainly seeking these
extensions to artificially delay the administration of these
chapter 11 cases or to hold creditors hostage to an unsatisfactory
plan proposal. But rather, the Debtors claim they are seeking these
extensions as they are still reviewing the claims against them.

plan and are debtor-controlled entities under that plan.

Prior to the commencement of LBHI's Chapter 11 case, LUK was a
wholly-owned, direct subsidiary of the company and the direct and
indirect parent of a substantial portion of the company's European
operations.  During the same period, LPTSI was a direct subsidiary
of Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., which was an indirect subsidiary
of LBHI.

The primary business of LUK and LPTSI is managing a portfolio of
global assets.  This includes interacting with borrowers, joint
venture partners, and other parties related to the assets;
monitoring the real-estate development projects; assessing key
variables that influence the recovery values of those entities'
assets; and evaluating market conditions in order to determine
whether to hold or sell.

LUK and LPTSI sought protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case Nos. 17-12442 and 17-12443) on August
31, 2017.  The petitions were signed by Christopher Mosher,
director, vice-president and assistant treasurer.

At the time of the filing, the Debtors disclosed that they had
estimated assets of $500 million to $1 billion and liabilities of
$100 million to $500 million.

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

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

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

The Debtors' bankruptcy cases were assigned to Judge James M. Peck.
Judge Shelley Chapman took over the case after Judge Peck retired
from the bench to join Morrison & Foerster.

A team of Weil, Gotshal & Manges, LLP, lawyers led by the late
Harvey R. Miller, Esq., serve as counsel to Lehman.  Epiq
Bankruptcy Solutions serves as claims and noticing agent.

Dennis F. Dunne, Esq., Evan Fleck, Esq., and Dennis O'Donnell,
Esq., at Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP, in New York, served
as counsel to the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors.
Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin Capital, Inc., served as the
Committee's investment banker.

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

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

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

In October 2016, the team winding down LBHI paid $3.8 billion to
creditors, the 11th distribution since Lehman's collapse in 2008.
This brought the total payout to more than $113.6 billion.
Bondholders were projected to receive about 21 cents on the dollar
when Lehman's bankruptcy plan went into effect in early 2012.  The
11th distribution raised the bondholders' recovery to more than 40
cents on the dollar and recoveries for general unsecured creditors
of Lehman's commodities to 79 cents on the dollar. Lehman's
aggregate 12th distribution to unsecured creditors pursuant to its
confirmed Chapter 11 plan will total approximately $3.0 billion.

MATTEL INC: Fitch Lowers Long-Term IDR to BB; Outlook Negative
--------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded the following Mattel, Inc. ratings:
Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) to 'BB' from 'BBB-',
Short-Term IDR and CP program rating to 'B' from 'F3', and Mattel's
senior unsecured nonguaranteed notes to 'BB-/RR5' from 'BBB-'. In
addition, Fitch has assigned a 'BBB-/RR1' rating to Mattel's
proposed $1.6 billion ABL revolving credit facility (RCF) and a
'BB/RR4' rating to its proposed issuance of $1 billion in senior
guaranteed notes. The Rating Outlook is Negative. A full list of
rating actions follows at the end of this release.

The downgrade reflects Mattel's weak operating performance and
negative cash flow generation, which have necessitated the issuance
of $1 billion in unsecured guaranteed notes to maintain the
company's historical liquidity position. Fitch expects 2017 EBITDA
to decline around 50% to the $400 million-$450 million range from
$880 million in 2016, and compares to peak EBITDA of $1.4 billion
in 2013. FCF in 2017 is expected to be negative in excess of $0.5
billion due to EBITDA declines, adverse working capital swings and
cash restructuring charges, somewhat offset by lower dividend
payments. Execution missteps, including the inability of the
company to effectively respond to evolving play patterns and
ongoing retail challenges, with retailers cutting back on inventory
purchases, and most recently the September 2017 bankruptcy of Toys
'R' Us, Inc., have pressured operating results and cash flow.

Leverage in 2017 is expected to be in the 7.0x-7.5x range due to
the projected EBITDA decline and the projected increase in debt to
$3.2 billion from $2.3 billion. The Rating Outlook could be
stabilized if Fitch gains confidence in the company's ability to
drive EBITDA to around $650 million through a combination of sales
stabilization and expense management, yielding leverage trending to
the low-4.0x range.

The Negative Outlook reflects Fitch's concern that anticipated
improvement does not materialize. While the company has outlined
initiatives to improve top line and EBITDA, including around $650
million in annualized cost savings (prior to partial reinvestment
of savings into growth initiatives), Fitch's rating stabilization
case requires around 50% EBITDA improvement from 2017 levels by
2020.

The ratings continue to reflect Mattel's position as one of the
largest companies in the approximately $90 billion global toy
industry (according to trade association The Toy Association), with
projected 2017 revenue of $5 billion, similar to other leading
players including Hasbro Inc. (BBB+/Stable), Bandai Namco Holdings
and The Lego Group, each of which have $5 billion-$5.5 billion in
annual revenue. Mattel holds particular strength in girls, infant
and preschool toys through brands such as Barbie, American Girl and
Fisher Price. Its leading boy brands include Hot Wheels and
Matchbox. Approximately 60% of corporate revenue is generated by
the company's Barbie, Hot Wheels, and Fisher Price brands. The
company also holds licenses to produce toys for a number of
entertainment properties such as Cars, Jurassic Park and Toy Story;
sales of these entertainment-driven products tend to be volatile
over time with peaks around theatrical releases.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

Operating Weakness Continues: Mattel's revenue has steadily
declined in recent years, with sales falling from a peak of $6.5
billion in 2013 to a projected $5 billion in 2017. Fitch believes
the company has been unable to effectively evolve its product
portfolio commensurate with changes to children's play patterns.
Children are increasingly digitally oriented and marginally less
interested in traditional toys. Relative to Mattel, Hasbro has more
successfully responded to these changes through brand storytelling,
creating digital experiences and revenue streams to support its
portfolio's customer relevance and create additional sales
opportunities.

The company has also been challenged by the phenomenon of children
- in particular, girls - outgrowing traditional toys at a younger
age, with greater interest in consumer electronics, beauty, sports,
and social media. Mattel's traditional toy portfolio, including
Barbie, has had difficulty effectively retaining mindshare as this
phenomenon progresses. Finally, Mattel's revenue base is
increasingly tied to licensed properties, which have created the
dual risks of lost licenses, such as the Disney Princess line to
Hasbro beginning 2016, and underperforming properties, such as Cars
3 in 2017. All of these challenges have been exacerbated by the
recently strengthening U.S. dollar, given that around 40% of
Mattel's revenue is generated internationally.

Mattel's struggle to respond to these challenges has resulted in
core brand revenue declines in recent years. For example, Barbie
generated $1.3 billion of gross revenue in 2012 (18% of gross
sales) before declining to just above $900 million in 2015 (14% of
gross sales) and rebounding to $926 million over the LTM (16% of
gross sales). Other franchises including American Girl, Mega, and
Thomas & Friends have also shown sales declines in recent years
with less clear recovery prospects.

The pace of decline has accelerated in 2017, exacerbated by the
September 2017 bankruptcy of Toys 'R' Us, Inc. In 2017, Mattel's
revenue is expected to decline around 8% with EBITDA down about 50%
from $880 million in 2016 to $400 million-$450 million in 2017.
EBITDA margins are expected to compress from 16% in 2016 (and peak
levels of 22% in 2012-2013) to around 8.5% in 2017 on fixed-cost
deleverage, Toys 'R' Us's bankruptcy, and higher royalty expenses
due to mix shifts.

Transformation Underway: Mattel appointed Margo Georgiadis,
previously Google's president of the Americas, as CEO in February
2017. Speaking at Mattel's June 2017 investor day, Ms. Georgiadis
attributed the company's recently weak performance to brand
management missteps, limited long-range portfolio planning, and
cost cutting without operational simplification.

To remedy these issues, Ms. Georgiadis announced a Transformation
Plan for the company with five key elements: 1) build Mattel's
power brands into connected 360-degree play experiences, 2)
accelerate emerging markets growth, 3) focus and strengthen
Mattel's innovation pipeline, 4) realign and reshape operations,
and 5) reignite Mattel's culture and team. Mattel also announced
further significant leadership team changes in early October
including the departure of the company's long-time CFO.

In June 2017, Mattel disclosed that it expects to incur $250
million-$350 million in cumulative incremental investment, via both
capital expenditures and operating expenses. This was to be
partially funded by cost savings of $150 million-$200 million, but
following a weak third quarter 2017 (3Q17) Mattel significantly
increased its cost saving target to over $650 million. The planned
cost savings are evenly split between cost of goods sold and SG&A,
and include elimination of less-profitable products and brands,
outsourcing manufacturing of non-core-brand product, working with
vendors to lower costs, and reducing overhead and discretionary
spend on functions like consulting and legal.

The company plans to reinvest $170 million of cost savings into
growth investments (primarily operating expenses with 20% in
capital expenditure) in addition to around $200 million of one-time
restructuring expenses. Fitch's current rating case assumes a
somewhat successful implementation of the Transformation Plan
yielding stabilizing sales and gross margins trends beginning 2018
as the company laps the impact of the TOY bankruptcy and topline
initiatives gain some traction. This stabilization, coupled with
expense reductions across both cost of goods sold and SG&A, is
expected to yield EBITDA trending to the $650 million range by 2020
from the low-$400 million range in 2017.

Uneven Cash Flows and Proposed Debt Issuance: Virtually all of
Mattel's FCF is generated in 4Q17, coinciding with the holiday
period, as is typical for most toy manufacturers. The company
typically finishes the year with $800 million-$1 billion in cash,
allowing it to build inventory through the year in advance of its
peak FCF generation. Mattel's annual FCF has been modestly negative
in three of the past four years including $186 million of negative
FCF in 2016; however, accelerated EBITDA declines, adverse working
capital swings and restructuring charges are expected to drive FCF
to over negative $0.5 billion in 2017. Given the softness in its
operating results, Mattel stopped its share repurchase program in
2014 and reduced dividends by 60% in 3Q17, eliminating dividends
altogether in 4Q17.

As a result of negative cash flow in 2017, the company has proposed
a $1 billion unsecured guaranteed note issuance to fund operations
and address its $250 million unsecured note maturity in 2018.
Should the company successfully complete the issuance, Fitch
expects Mattel to end 2017 with around $1 billion in cash,
including the $250 million earmarked for the 2018 maturity. Given
Fitch's forecasts of modest FCF generation over the next several
years, Fitch expects Mattel will need to refinance upcoming
unsecured notes maturities, including $500 million in 2019 and $250
million in 2020.

DERIVATION SUMMARY

Mattel's 'BB' IDR reflects the company's weak operating performance
and negative cash flow generation, which have necessitated the
issuance of $1 billion of unsecured guaranteed notes to maintain
the company's historical liquidity position and leading to elevated
leverage. Execution missteps, including the inability of the
company to effectively respond to evolving play patterns, and
retail challenges, most recently the September 2017 bankruptcy of
Toys 'R' Us, have pressured operating results and cash flow. Fitch
expects 2017 EBITDA to decline around 50% to $400 million-$450
million from $880 million in 2016, and compares to peak $1.4
billion in EBITDA in 2013. Fitch expects leverage in 2017 to be in
the 7.0-7.5x range; the 'BB' rating reflects Fitch's expectation
that leverage will decline toward the low-4.0x range assuming the
company's recently announced sales and cost initiatives result in
EBITDA improvement toward around $650 million by 2020.

The ratings continue to reflect Mattel's position as one of the
largest companies in the approximately $90 billion global toy
industry, with projected 2017 revenue of $5 billion, similar to
other leading players including The Lego Group, Bandai Namco
Holdings and Hasbro, each of which have $5 billion-$5.5 billion in
annual revenue. Hasbro has experienced more stable operating
results than Mattel, producing a 5% revenue CAGR over the last five
years compared with annual mid-single-digit declines at Mattel
beginning 2014. Hasbro's revenue growth is attributed to its
successful focus on brand extensions and product innovation, and
wins such as takeover of the Disney princess license from Mattel
beginning 2016. Hasbro's leverage is expected to trend modestly
under 2x, compared with Mattel's expected 2017 year-end leverage of
7.0x-7.5x and projected 2020 leverage of around mid-4x.

KEY ASSUMPTIONS

Fitch's key assumptions within its rating case for the issuer to
stabilize its Outlook at 'BB' include:

-- Revenue in 2017 is expected to decline around 8% to $5 billion

    due to core product challenges and the Toys 'R' Us bankruptcy,

    somewhat offset by incremental sales from Cars 3 (film
    released June 2017). Thereafter, revenue is expected to
    stabilize in the low-$5 billion range given modest benefits
    from the company's topline initiatives.

-- EBITDA margins are projected to contract about 800bps to
    approximately 8.5% in 2017 versus 16% in 2016, primarily due
    to deleverage of fixed expenses and gross margin pressure from

    exposure to the Toys 'R' Us bankruptcy. Fitch expects EBITDA
    margins improve to 11% in 2018 and 13% by 2020, based on cost
    savings programs and operating efficiencies resulting from the

    Transformation Plan. As a result, EBITDA, which is expected to

    decline to the $400 million-$450 million range in 2017 from
    $880 million in 2016, could improve toward around $650 million

    by 2020.

-- Leverage is expected to increase to the low-7.0x range in 2017

    from 3.3x in 2016 due to EBITDA declines and the issuance of
    $1 billion of unsecured notes (if successfully completed).
    Leverage is expected to decline to below 4.5x by 2020 as
    EBITDA rebounds and the company repays $250 million of
    unsecured notes upon maturity in 2018. Fitch expects Mattel to

    refinance subsequent maturities including $500 million and
    $250 million of unsecured notes in 2019 and 2020,
    respectively.

-- Fitch expects negative FCF in excess of $0.5 billion in 2017
    compared to negative $190 million in 2016 due to EBITDA
    declines, working capital swings and cash restructuring
    charges, somewhat offset by lower dividend payments. Fitch
    expects FCF to be neutral in 2018 on modest EBITDA
    improvement, neutral working capital and full-year impact of
    the company's dividend suspension, with FCF improving toward
    $150 million annually thereafter on EBITDA growth.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

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

- The Outlook could be stabilized if there is increased
   confidence in the company's ability to generate modest revenue
   growth and a rebound in EBITDA margins, which would result in
   EBITDA increasing to around $650 million (versus 2017 projected

   EBITDA of $400 million-$450 million) and leverage trending to
   under 4.5x.

- A positive rating action could result if operating leverage is
   sustained below 4x through EBITDA growth toward $750 million.

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

- A negative rating action could be caused by lack of
   stabilization in the top line or a rebound in margins which
   cause EBITDA to trend in the mid-$500 million range, with
   leverage sustaining above 5x.

LIQUIDITY

Given industry seasonality, the company targets $800 million to $1
billion of cash on hand at year-end. Cash balances and the
company's CP program have historically supported working capital
peaks in the third and fourth quarters leading into the holiday
season, as Mattel generates the majority of its cash in the fourth
quarter.

As of Sept. 30, 2017, the company had cash and cash equivalents of
$181 million (approximately $102 million is held by foreign
subsidiaries). Mattel had $733 million in CP outstanding as of
Sept. 30, 2017, which is backstopped by a $1.6 billion unused RCF
maturing in March 2020.

As of Sept. 30, 2017, Mattel's leverage (total debt/EBITDA) was
4.9x. Mattel had total debt outstanding of approximately $2.9
billion, including $733 million of CP borrowings and $2.15 billion
of unsecured nonguaranteed bonds.

On Dec. 9, 2017 the company announced its plan to replace the $1.6
billion unsecured RCF with a new $1.6 billion asset-backed RCF. The
company also plans to issue $1 billion in unsecured guaranteed
notes to provide the company with liquidity given negative FCF in
2017 and to address its $250 million maturity in March 2018. The
notes will be guaranteed by domestic subsidiaries. During the 4Q,
Fitch expects the company to pay down CP borrowings, ending the
year with no CP outstanding. Ending 2017 cash is projected to be
around $1 billion (including the $250 million earmarked to address
the 2018 maturity), compared to average year-end cash of $800
million-$1 billion over the past several years.

Fitch has assigned Recovery Ratings (RRs) to the various debt
tranches in accordance with criteria, which allows for the
assignment of RRs for issuers with IDRs in the 'BB' category. Given
the distance to default, RRs in the 'BB' category are not computed
by bespoke analysis. Instead, they serve as a label to reflect an
estimate of the risk of these instruments relative to other
instruments in the entity's capital structure. Fitch has rated
Mattel's proposed senior secured ABL RCF 'BBB-/RR1', indicating
outstanding recovery prospects (91%-100%) in the event of default.
The proposed guaranteed senior unsecured debt is rated 'BB/RR4',
indicating average recovery prospects (31%-50%). The senior
unsecured notes that are not guaranteed are rated one notch lower
than the IDR at 'BB-/RR5', indicating below-average recovery
prospects (11%-30%).

The Rating Outlook is Negative.


MATTEL INC: Moody's Lowers Senior Unsecured Bonds Rating to Ba3
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded Mattel, Inc.'s ratings to
speculative grade and assigned a Ba2 Corporate Family Rating (CFR).
Its existing senior unsecured bond ratings were downgraded to Ba3
from Baa3; and its rating for short term issuance was lowered to
Not Prime from Prime-3. Moody's assigned a Ba2 rating to the
company's planned new $1 billion senior unsecured bond, which will
benefit from subsidiary guarantees. Moody's also assigned a
Speculative Grade Liquidity rating of SGL-1. The rating outlook is
stable.

"The rating downgrade reflects the company's weak performance year
to date, and recently lowered profit expectations for the important
2017 fourth quarter holiday season," said Linda Montag, a Moody's
Senior Vice President. "This will contribute to much higher than
previously expected year end leverage", added Montag. At the same
time, Moody's recognizes that the company will have strong
liquidity after the planned transactions. Mattel will have a new
$1.6 billion asset backed revolver and $1 billion of cash on hand.
This will help prefund 2018 debt maturities and working capital
needs.

After a slow start to the year due to an overhang of inventory from
the 2016 selling season, and weakness in several of its important
brands, Mattel was severely impacted by the October 2017 Toys R US
bankruptcy filing. The impact of the filing on Mattel included a
sales reversal related to losses on pre-bankruptcy receivables of
$43 million. It also included a loss of sales for several critical
weeks at the end of the third quarter, when Mattel stopped
shipments to the retailer while new business terms could be
arranged. In the fourth quarter, shipments resumed more slowly than
in the past. These top line losses without a corresponding
reduction in the costs associated with the sales, resulted in much
lower profit margins. In addition, operating inefficiencies
surrounding the opening of a new distribution center in the Eastern
U.S. further contributed to margin pressure. Softness in several
product lines including Monster High and Thomas the Tank Engine
will contribute to volume and profit pressures in the fourth
quarter. Finally, the company will book certain restructuring and
severance costs in Q4 related to Mattel's structural
simplification, lowering profits and cash flows more than
expected.

The company has suspended its dividend, which will save over $ 500
million in 2018 as compared with 2016. Moody's had expected Mattel
to stabilize performance in 2017, but now believes sales will be
down mid-single digits for the year and that profitability will not
be restored for some time. The significant underperformance,
together with the new $1 billion bond issuance, will result in
historically high gross debt to EBITDA leverage of approximately
6.7 times at year-end 2017, despite adjusting for certain one- time
items. Net leverage will also be high at 5.2 times, even for a
speculative grade rated company. Since some of the shortfall is
related to one time issues, Moody's expects Mattel to recover a
portion of the lost revenue and earnings over the next two years.
This is supported by the fact that a number of Mattel's products
continue to experience strong demand at retail. Global point of
sale information suggests that several of its brands, including
Barbie, were up at least mid-single in year-to-date consumer
takeaway. However, the company faces challenges in other properties
including continued declines in Monster High and Thomas the Tank
Engine.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectation that leverage will
remain high for at least the next two years, but that cost take
outs will serve to boost cash flows and allow debt repayment over
this time. Moody's expects debt/EBITDA to fall to around 4 times or
below by 2019. Moody's recognizes certain risks associated with the
company's ongoing restructuring and streamlining plans, which
include cost take outs of at least $650 million to be achieved over
the next two years. Mattel will likely struggle to restore
operating profit margins to its long term target range of 15%-20%.
This is because the environment remains highly competitive,
Mattel's product mix is shifting, and consumer shopping patterns
continue to evolve.

Mattel, Inc.

Ratings Downgraded:

Short-term to Not Prime from Prime-3

Senior Unsecured unguaranteed bonds to Ba3 (LGD5) from Baa3

Ratings Assigned:

Corporate Family Rating at Ba2

Probability of Default Rating at Ba2-PD

Speculative Grade Liquidity rating at SGL-1

New senior unsecured $1billion note with subsidiary guarantees at
Ba2 (LGD3)

The ratings outlook is stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

Mattel's Ba2 CFR is based on the company's high leverage and
diminished profitability after several years of operating
challenges. The company continues to face risks presented by
limited segment diversification -- i.e. toys and games --
concentrated customer base, and exposure to cost increases and
product recalls. In addition, there is significant uncertainty
around the company's transformation plans, which will be led by a
relatively new management team. In Mattel's rating Moody's also
considers the toy industry's extreme seasonality and inherent
volatility. This stems from fashion risk that can result in sudden
shifts in the popularity of certain toy products, and fluid
demographics such as age compression in certain toy categories,
entertainment tie-ins and technological innovations that compete
for children's time. Toy companies face increasing competition from
entertainment and media companies that are changing the way
children play. They are also challenged to adapt to ongoing shifts
in consumer's purchasing behavior. At the same time Mattel's rating
reflects the company's good market positions, portfolio of strong
brands, relatively large scale within the toy industry and broad
geographic diversification.

Mattel's liquidity is very strong as reflected by the SGL-1
Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating. The company will benefit from
its planned $1.6 billion Asset Backed Revolver which will replace
the previously unsecured bank revolving credit facility. The new
asset based revolver has a springing interest coverage covenant,
only tested if usage exceeds a relatively high level. Following the
issuance of the proposed new senior unsecured $1 billion bond, the
company will end the year with no short term borrowings and nearly
$1 billion of cash, part of which will be used to fund its upcoming
(March 2018) bond maturity. The new bond will benefit from
subsidiary guarantees, which will make it structurally superior to
existing unsecured bonds that do not have such guarantees. This
results in a rating one notch higher than the legacy bonds.

The ratings could be downgraded if Mattel experiences further
declines in sales or profit margins, if it fails to generate
positive free cash flow, if EBIT margins are sustained below 5%, or
if debt to EBITDA fails to approach 4.5 times within two years.
Debt funded shareholder returns or acquisitions could also result
in a downgrade.

For Moody's to consider an upgrade, Mattel would need to restore
operating momentum, including EBIT margins approaching 10%, and
debt/EBITDA of under 4x. Additionally, the company would need to
demonstrate a commitment to a conservative financial policy.

Mattel, Inc., headquartered in El Segundo, California is a
worldwide leader in the design, manufacture and marketing of toys.
The company's core portfolio is comprised of brands such as Barbie,
Fisher-Price, Hot Wheels, Matchbox, Thomas the Tank Engine, Mega
Brands and American Girl. Mattel also derives a significant portion
of its sales from entertainment properties licensed from Disney,
Warner Bros., and other content owners. Sales for the 12 months
ended September 30, 2017 approximated $5.1 billion.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global Packaged
Goods published in January 2017.


MATTEL INC: S&P Lowers CCR to 'BB-' CCR, Outlook Negative
---------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its corporate credit rating on El
Segundo, Calif.-based Mattel Inc. to 'BB-' from 'BB'. The rating
outlook is negative.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned our 'BB-' issue-level
rating on the company's proposed $1 billion high-yield senior
unsecured notes maturing in 2025 and assigned a '3' (capped)
recovery rating to it. The '3' recovery rating reflects our
expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 65%)
recovery for lenders in the event of a payment default. The company
expects to use the proceeds to prefund the company's $250 million
senior notes due March of 2018, to repay outstanding short-term
debt, partly fund investments in the company's cost-reduction
initiatives, and add cash to the balance sheet.

"We also lowered the issue-level rating on the company's existing
senior unsecured notes to 'BB-' from 'BB', in line with the lower
corporate credit rating. Additionally, we revised our recovery
rating on the company's existing senior unsecured notes to '4' from
'3'. The '4' recovery rating reflects our expectation for average
(30%-50%; rounded estimate: 40%) recovery for lenders in the event
of a payment default. Recovery prospects for existing noteholders
are impaired by the inclusion of the proposed secured ABL revolver
in the capital structure and subsidiary guarantees in the new
proposed notes, which result in higher priority claims ahead of the
existing notes. The rating on the prefunded notes due in March of
2018 are unchanged.

"The one-notch downgrade to 'BB-' reflects our lowered base case
forecast for revenue, EBITDA, and cash flow from operations, which
will cause adjusted debt to EBITDA in 2017 to spike significantly
higher than our 4x downgrade threshold at the prior rating. Under
our revised forecast, revenue declines in the high-single digits,
EBITDA declines around 50%, operating cash flow is negative, and
adjusted debt to EBITDA spikes to the mid- to high-5x area in 2017.
As a result, we believe Mattel's planned operational turnaround and
deleveraging path will take significantly longer than we previously
forecasted, and risks in Mattel's business operations remain
heightened related to poor product sales performance, increasing
costs, decreased margin, and increased EBITDA volatility. We have
revised our revenue forecast lower partly due to tighter inventory
management at key retailers and declining sales trends in certain
key product lines, such as American Girl and Thomas. We believe
gross margin will decline to the 40% area due to higher inventory
write-downs and discounts offered to retailers to clear inventory,
higher freight and logistics expense, and lower fixed-cost
absorption.

"The negative outlook reflects a high level of variability in
revenue, EBITDA, and cash flow from operations, and the possibility
of further deterioration in operating trends that could result in
leverage staying above our revised downgrade threshold of 5x. We
continue to believe discounting behavior required to support sales
in the holiday season in 2016 could recur in the 2017 holiday
season. This is because of the ongoing shift in consumer purchasing
behavior toward the online channel and shoppers arriving later in
retail stores during the holiday season. Additionally, the extent
of the company's success in its turnaround efforts for 2018 remains
uncertain.

"We could lower ratings if revenue and EBITDA in 2017 or 2018
underperform our base-case forecast, and we believe operating
fundamentals could deteriorate further in a manner that causes
total lease-adjusted debt to EBITDA to stay above 5x. In addition,
because of heavy revolver usage due to the seasonal working capital
needs of the business, we currently rate to a forecasted year-end
leverage measure.

"We could revise the rating outlook to stable if Mattel stabilizes
revenue, begins to improve gross margin, and maintains its market
share in key product categories, and if we become confident Mattel
can sustain total lease-adjusted debt to EBITDA comfortably below
5x. While unlikely over the next few years, we could raise the
rating if Mattel can significantly grow revenue and EBITDA, and
adopts a leverage policy that sustains adjusted debt to EBITDA
below 4x."


MELEK TZADIK: U.S. Trustee Unable to Appoint Committee
------------------------------------------------------

MICHIGAN HONEY: Unsecured Creditor to Get Full Payment in 35 Months
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Michigan Honey Bees, L.L.C filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Eastern District of Michigan a combined plan of reorganization
and disclosure statement.

Michigan Honey Bees is a limited liability company formed in the
State of Nevada on Sept. 18, 2015, and registered in Jackson,
Michigan. As the name of the company suggests, the company was
formed with the idea of opening an apiary, i.e. -- beekeeping.

Class II under the plan consists of the Holders of Allowed
Unsecured Claims against Michigan Honey Bees. The only Holder of an
Unsecured Claim is attorney James P. Flemming. Flemming will be
paid in full on such Claims by paying such claimant in 35
consecutive monthly payments of $100 per month commencing the first
day of the next month that is six months after the Effective Date.

The Debtor anticipates reorganizing its business and assets and
paying its creditors according to their priority. Past performance
is not indicative of future performance since the Debtor's changed
circumstances immediately prior to the filing of the case will give
the Debtor the ability to make plan payments. Also, the Debtor
anticipates that it will begin to be able to look for (and obtain)
financing to start the apiary business.

MONTREAL MAINE: Canadian Pacific Can't Appeal Refusal to Junk Suit
------------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Jon D. Levy of the U.S. District Court for the District of
Maine denies Canadian Pacific Railway Company's motion for leave to
appeal the Bankruptcy Court's July 7, 2017 interlocutory order,
which denied in part its motion to dismiss the Third Amended
Complaint.

In July of 2013, a freight train operated by the Montreal Maine &
Atlantic Railway, Ltd. ("MMA"), including its 72 carloads of crude
oil, derailed in the town of Lac-Megantic, Quebec, leading to a
series of explosions that destroyed part of the downtown area and
killed 47 people. The next month, MMA filed a chapter 11 Bankruptcy
proceeding in this District and simultaneously sought similar
protection in Canada.

In January 2014, Robert Keach, then acting as the chapter 11
trustee of the MMA estate, commenced an adversary proceeding
against multiple defendants who are no longer parties to the
action. In January 2015, Keach filed an Amended Complaint which
added Appellant Canadian Pacific Railway Company as Defendant.

In September 2016, Keach, now in his capacity as the estate
representative of the estate of MMA, filed a Third Amended
Complaint in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court against Canadian Pacific
Railway Company and Soo Line Railroad Company (collectively, "CP").
Keach alleged claims for negligence (Count One); breach of
contract/warranty (Count Two); negligent misrepresentation (Count
Three); and disallowance of CP's proof of claim in the underlying
bankruptcy involving MMA (Count Four).

CP subsequently moved to dismiss the Third Amended Complaint on
grounds of forum non conveniens and for failure to state a claim
upon which relief can be granted pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil
Procedure 12(b)(6). In July 2017, the Bankruptcy Court issued an
interlocutory order granting CP's motion in part as to the Breach
of Contract/Warranty Claims, but denied it as to the remaining
counts.

The Court explains that a district court's discretion to certify an
interlocutory appeal under Section 1292(b) is used "sparingly and
only in exceptional circumstances." Under Section 1292(b), leave to
appeal an interlocutory order is appropriate where: (1) the order
involves a controlling question of law; (2) as to which there is
substantial ground for difference of opinion; and (3) an immediate
appeal from the order may materially advance the ultimate
termination of the litigation.

CP asserts that a controlling question of law exists because the
Bankruptcy Court concluded that the Estate Representative's factual
allegations were plausible and not subject to dismissal pursuant to
Rule 12(b)(6). In making its argument that the forum non conveniens
doctrine represents a controlling question of law in this case, CP
has set forth its reasons for disagreeing with the Bankruptcy
Court's decision, but the Court finds that CP has failed to support
its assertion that reversing the Bankruptcy Court's ruling in an
interlocutory appeal will either terminate the action or otherwise
save time and expense for the parties and the court.

CP argues that the Bankruptcy Court's refusal to dismiss Counts I,
III, and IV of the Third Amended Complaint gives rise to
substantial grounds for disagreement because the Court has reached
a different conclusion when it ordered dismissal of the plaintiffs'
complaint on forum non conveniens grounds in the related In re Lac
Megantic litigation, 1:16-cv-1001-JDL.

The Court points out that this case and Lac Megantic Litigation
arise out of the same tragic train derailment, but are quite
different because they involve different parties, different
theories of liability, and despite significant overlap, different
factual questions. Given these differences, the forums non
conveniens analysis in Lac Megantic Litigation is not determinative
of the analysis applied in this case.

CP contends that granting interlocutory review of the Bankruptcy
Court's decision would materially advance the ultimate resolution
of this case, reasoning that this court will eventually engage in
de novo review of CP's forum non conveniens and Rule 12(b)(6)
objections on final appeal. Thus, according to CP, denial of an
interlocutory appeal will require the parties to engage in
discovery and pretrial motions practice that will be both
time-consuming and expensive.

However, the Court explains that granting interlocutory appeal will
require the parties to brief and argue the forum non conveniens
issue a second time, which would also be time-consuming and
expensive. Further, if CP's reasoning is adopted, interlocutory
review would be justified in virtually every case.

NFP CORP: Moody's Maintains B3 Corporate Family Rating
------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service is maintaining the B3 corporate family
rating and B3-PD probability of default rating of NFP Corp. (NFP)
following the company's announcement that it plans to issue an
incremental $150 million of senior unsecured notes (rated Caa2).
The company will use proceeds of the offering to fund pending or
future acquisitions and pay related fees and expenses. The outlook
for the ratings is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

NFP's ratings reflect its expertise and solid market position in
insurance brokerage, particularly providing employee benefits and
property & casualty products and services to mid-sized firms. The
company also offers insurance and wealth management services to
high net worth individuals. The business is well diversified across
products, clients and regions primarily in the US. Offsetting these
strengths is NFP's high financial leverage and low interest
coverage. Over the next few months, Moody's expects elevated
acquisition activity to drive NFP's revenue growth and offset the
recent slow organic growth, especially in NFP's property & casualty
segment. This elevated acquisition activity will give rise to
integration and contingent risks.

Giving effect to the incremental borrowing, NFP will have a pro
forma debt-to EBITDA ratio around 8x, (EBITDA -- capex) interest
coverage in the range of 1.5x-1.8x, and a free-cash-flow-to-debt
ratio in the low single digits, according to Moody's estimates. The
rating agency expects that NFP will reduce its leverage to around
7.5x through EBITDA growth over the next few quarters. These pro
forma metrics reflect Moody's accounting adjustments for operating
leases, contingent earnout obligations, certain other non-recurring
items, and run-rate EBITDA from acquisitions.

Factors that could lead to an upgrade of NFP's ratings include: (i)
debt-to-EBITDA ratio below 6x, (ii) (EBITDA - capex) coverage of
interest exceeding 2x, (iii) free-cash-flow-to-debt ratio exceeding
5%, and (iv) successful integration of acquisitions.

Factors that could lead to a rating downgrade include: (i)
debt-to-EBITDA ratio remaining above 7.5x, (ii) (EBITDA - capex)
coverage of interest below 1.2x, or (iii) free-cash-flow-to-debt
ratio below 2%.

Moody's maintains the following ratings and loss given default
(LGD) assessments:

Corporate family rating B3;

Probability of default rating B3-PD;

$650 million (including proposed $150 million increase) senior
unsecured notes maturing in July 2025, rated Caa2 (LGD5);

$150 million senior secured revolving credit facility maturing in
January 2022, rated B2 (LGD3);

$1.4 billion senior secured term loan maturing in January 2024,
rated B2 (LGD3).

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Insurance
Brokers and Service Companies published in September 2017.

Based in New York City, NFP provides a range of brokerage,
consulting and advisory services, including corporate benefits,
retirement, property & casualty, individual insurance and wealth
management solutions to domestic and some international clients,
with a focus on corporate entities and high net worth individuals.
The company generated revenue of $1 billion for the 12 months
through September 2017.


PACIFIC DRILLING: Hires Prime Clerk as Administrative Advisor

PATRIOT NATIONAL: To File Chapter 11 to Facilitate Restructuring
----------------------------------------------------------------
Patriot National, Inc., a provider of technology and outsourcing
solutions to the insurance industry, on Nov. 28, 2017, disclosed
that it has agreed to be acquired by certain funds and accounts
managed by each of Cerberus Business Finance, LLC and its
affiliates and TCW Asset Management Company LLC ("TCW").  The
transaction will be effectuated under a plan of reorganization (the
"Plan") pursuant to the terms of a restructuring support agreement
("RSA") between Patriot National and its lenders, Cerberus and TCW,
under which the Company and its direct and indirect U.S.-based
subsidiaries (the "Subsidiaries") will file voluntary petitions for
relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code.

The Company expects that it will continue to operate its business
in the ordinary course and the Chapter 11 filing is not expected to
have a meaningful impact on the Company's day-to-day operations.
Specifically, the Company intends to continue to provide
uninterrupted service to all of its carrier customers in accordance
with the terms of the current agreements.  Furthermore, it is
anticipated that all commissions due to brokers who commit to
continue their business relationships with the Company will be paid
in the ordinary course of business or in full under the Plan.  The
Company expects the reorganization, which is subject to the
completion of definitive documentation and regulatory approval, to
be completed early in the second quarter of 2018.

Under the RSA announced on Nov. 28, certain funds and accounts
managed by Cerberus and TCW will convert a portion of their claims
under the financing agreement in consideration for 100% of the new
equity to be issued in Patriot National and the Subsidiaries under
the Plan.  All existing equity interests in Patriot National and
the Subsidiaries will be extinguished, and Patriot National will no
longer have any affiliation with its founder and former CEO Steven
Mariano, who resigned earlier this year.

"[This] marks a significant milestone for Patriot National as we
look to reduce our debt, significantly improve our liquidity and
financial condition, and improve our ability to service our loyal
customers," said John Rearer, CEO of Patriot National.  "In taking
the measured, strategic step to recapitalize through a Chapter 11
process, we are partnering with strong financial and operational
partners who can provide us with the resources and expertise to
move forward. We are recommitting ourselves to our customers and
will ensure that they continue to receive the same high level of
service they have come to expect under all current agreements."

PATTINIS LLC: U.S. Trustee Unable to Appoint Committee
------------------------------------------------------
An official committee of unsecured creditors has not yet been
appointed in the Chapter 11 case of Pattinis LLC as of Dec. 7,
according to a court docket.

                        About Pattinis LLC

Pattinis LLC sought protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code (Bankr. M.D. Fla. Case No. 17-09138) on Oct. 30, 2017.  At the
time of the filing, the Debtor disclosed that it had estimated
assets of less than $50,000 and liabilities of less than $500,000.
Buddy D. Ford, Esq., and Jonathan A. Semach, Esq., at Buddy D. Ford
P.A. serve as the Debtor's bankruptcy counsel.


PHOENIX SERVICES: S&P Places 'B' CCR on Watch Neg on Acquisition
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings placed its ratings on Phoenix Services
International LLC, including its 'B' corporate credit rating, on
CreditWatch with negative implications.

At the same time, S&P withdrew its issue-level ratings on the
company's proposed $425 million first-lien term loan due 2024, $140
million second-lien term loan due 2025, and $50 million revolving
credit facility due 2022 at the issuer's request, due to the
cancelled refinancing.

On Dec. 8, 2017, Phoenix Services announced that it has entered
into a definitive agreement to be acquired by an undisclosed buyer
and amount. The transaction is expected to close during the first
quarter of 2018. Even so, the details of the transaction, including
the pro forma capital structure and ownership are still emerging.

S&P said, "On Nov. 28, we revised the outlook on Phoenix Services
to stable from negative based on a refinancing plan that has now
been cancelled in light of the proposed sale of the company. While
we recognize that the refinancing could occur, we do not currently
have a definitive indication that it will occur, and as such we
could still lower the rating if the refinancing is not effected in
the coming months. As of Sept. 30, 2017, fully adjusted debt
leverage was 4.6x. For a more complete view on our credit opinion
of Phoenix Services, please see our research update published Nov
28, 2017.

"We are placing our ratings on CreditWatch with negative
implications. This highlights the uncertainty around financial
policies of the new owners, capital structure, and refinancing risk
associated with its $371 million term loan due June 2019.

"We will resolve the CreditWatch upon closing of the transaction,
which the company expects will occur at the end of the first
quarter of 2018. In resolving the CreditWatch, we could affirm or
lower the corporate credit rating. We will consider the financial
policies of the new owners, pro forma capital structure, and the
plans to refinance the $371 million term loan due June 2019."


R & A PROPERTIES: QTC Buying Des Moines Property for $200K
----------------------------------------------------------
R & A Properties, Inc., asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Iowa to authorize the sale of undeveloped real
estate it owned legally described as Lots 2 and 3 Corrells Acres
Plots, Plat 2 and locally known as 1711 Euclid Avenue, Des Moines,
Iowa, and all fixtures and improvements thereon, to QTC
Investments, LLC for $200,000.

Included as property of the estate in the Chapter 11 proceeding is
the 1711.  Following the prior disposition as approved by the Court
of another parcel of real estate that was owned by the Debtor at
the commandment of the case, 1711 represents the principal asset of
the Debtor's remaining bankruptcy estate and the Debtor intends to
use proceeds from the sale of the 1711, as well as other monies
received by the Debtor during the pendency of the Chapter 11
proceeding, to fund a Plan of Liquidation, and to make distribution
to the creditors of the estate, as such claims are allowed by the
Court.

On Nov. 8, 2017 the Debtor received a written offer in the form of
a Purchase Agreement: Commercial Property from QTC Investments, LLC
to purchase 1711 and all fixtures and improvements thereon for the
purchase price of $200,000.  The Debtor accepted the Purchase
Agreement, subject to the Court's approval, on Nov. 22, 2017.

The parties have agreed that a sale of the improvements will
include a sale of a billboard erected on 1711, and will also
necessarily include an assignment of the Debtor's rights under that
certain Lease entered into by the Debtor and Clear Channel Outdoor
concerning Clear Channel Outdoor's lease of the billboard erected
on 1711, pursuant to that Lease identified on the Debtor's Amended
Schedule G previously filed.  As a part of the sale of 1711, the
Debtor asks the Court to authorize it to assign rights arising
under the Lease with Clear Channel Outdoor to QTC.

The Debtor believes the Purchase Agreement, and the proposed
purchase of 1711 and assignment of the attendant lease rights to
QTC for the amount of $200,000reflects the current market value of
1711 and the attendant lease rights, and that it is in the best
interests of the estate for 1711 and the attendant lease rights to
be sold to QTC under the terms and conditions as set forth in the
Purchase Agreement.

A copy of the Agreements attached to the Motion is available for
free at:

     http://bankrupt.com/misc/R&A_Properties_54_Sales.pdf

The only claims attaching to 1711 are claims held by Polk County,
Iowa for real estate taxes on 1711 for the current tax year, which
will be paid by the Debtor from the sale proceeds at closing as a
condition of QTC's purchase of 1711. A print out from the ite
maintained by the Polk County Treasurer set the amount owing for
the current year real estate taxes on 1711 to be $2,282.

The Debtor retained NAI NAI Optimum to assist it in marketing and
selling 1711.  The Application indicated that NAI would be paid a
commission fee of up to 6% for its services as real estate broker
marketing 1711.  The Purchase Agreement concerns an offer to
purchase 1711 by QTC which was procured by NAI acting in its duties
as real estate broker of the Debtor.  The Debtor asks permission to
pay a commission of 6% or $12,000 to NAI as payment in full of its
commission relative to the Purchase Agreement.

The Debtor is in the process of retaining real estate counsel to
assist the Debtor in title work and other legal services related to
the closing of the sale transaction reflected by the Purchase
Agreement and will file a separate application to retain real
estate counsel, and asks authority to pay such counsel's standard
fee for real estate title and closing services at closing of the
proposed transaction.

The balance of the proceeds received by the Debtor from the sale of
1711, after payment of the professional fees awarded to NAI and the
payment of real estate taxes and payment of any other closing costs
or other professional fees approved by the Court will be held by
the Debtor in its DIP bank account pending further Order of the
Court or confirmation of a Chapter 11 plan propounded by the
Debtor.

RESIDENTIAL CAPITAL: Declares Eighth Cash Distribution
------------------------------------------------------
The ResCap Liquidating Trust on Dec. 4, 2017, disclosed that its
Board of Trustees has declared a cash distribution of $1.0112 per
unit to holders of units of beneficial interest in the Trust,
totaling $100 million (including the distribution made on account
of units in the Disputed Claims Reserve).  The distribution will be
paid on December 29, 2017 to unit holders of record as of the close
of business on December 14, 2017.

The entire distribution of $1.0112 per unit will consist of Trust
income that the Trust believes is U.S. source income subject to
U.S. federal withholding tax to the extent allocable to unit
holders that are not U.S persons (or in certain circumstances do
not otherwise establish their status as U.S. persons under
applicable rules).  Because the Trust does not have the necessary
information concerning the identity and tax status of its unit
holders, the Trust will distribute the gross amount of the
distribution to brokers (through DTC) and anticipates that the
required tax withholding will be effected by U.S. brokers (or other
nominees), who should treat the entire distribution of $1.0112 per
unit as U.S. source income subject to federal withholding.  As a
result, the Trust anticipates that unit holders subject to
withholding will receive a distribution net of the required
withholding.

Unit holders should consult their tax advisors with respect to the
tax treatment of the distribution.

RIVER SPRINGS: Moody's Rates 2015/2017 Educational Bonds 'Ba1'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has assigned an initial Ba1 and stable
outlook to River Springs Charter School (CA) Educational Facility
Revenue Bonds Series 2015A, 2017A and 2017B (Taxable). The bonds
are being issued by the California School Finance Authority on
behalf of River Springs Charter School, who will serve as Borrower
under a Loan Agreement with the Authority.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba1 rating reflects River Springs sizeable and growing student
enrollment and favorable position as the largest charter school
within Riverside County, accounting for 29% of all charter school
students within the County. The rating takes into account the
school's improved financial performance following repayment of
short-term borrowing and growing revenue stream. The rating also
incorporates, however, the school's still relatively slim cash
balances, that do not yet meet the additional bonds test (ABT)
requirement of 90 days and debt service coverage levels that may
remain relatively narrow as the school approaches MADs in 2019.
Academic proficiency remains weak, but exceeds that of the County
overall as do high school graduation and college matriculation
rates. The rating is also based upon board financial and debt
policies that are not yet fully explicit and risks associated with
the school's second charter renewal, which must occur in 2018.

RATING OUTLOOK

The stable outlook reflects expectations for improved liquidity and
adequate debt service coverage levels supported by continued
enrollment growth and positive operating margins.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE

- Meaningful and sustained improvement in liquidity

- Improved and sustained debt service coverage levels through and

   following expected MADs in 2019

- Strengthened academic proficiency levels with continued student

   growth

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE

- Declines in enrollment or failure to meet projected growth
   levels

- Failure to increase liquidity to meet ABT levels

- Failure to improve debt service coverage levels to closer to 2x

   as anticipated

LEGAL SECURITY

The Series 2015A and 2017A and 2017B parity bonds are secured under
two separate loan agreements between the California School Finance
Authority and River Springs Charter School, Inc. as borrower.
Pursuant to the Indentures, the Authority has assigned all loan
repayments pursuant to the loan agreement to the Trustee for the
benefit of bondholders. Central to the security structure for the
bonds, and critical to the current rating level, is a state
intercept mechanism under which River Springs, pursuant to an
Intercept Notice, will direct California's State Controller to
intercept from state aid allocations, on a quarterly basis,
sufficient funds to pay debt service and related fees directly to
the Trustee.

Bonds are additionally secured by Deeds of Trust on the finance
facilities, with a mortgage interest in the Bear River and Temecula
Schools and a leasehold interest in the Flabob Airport school,
which operates on a ground lease from the airport running through
March 31, 2051, one year prior to final debt maturity in 2052.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The current issuance will fund three projects with $4.6 million
utilized for the installation of 12 modular classroom buildings and
improvements to an airplane hangar that will be utilized for the
school's Flabob Airport Preparatory Academy, with the remainder
providing take-out financing for leases and acquisition of the Bear
River and Temecula Student Centers.

PROFILE

River Springs Charter School operates under a countywide benefit
charter, providing a diverse offering of flexible classroom,
independent study and homeschool options. The school currently
serves 6,348 students of which 2,100 are homeschool and Keys
Independent Study students with the remainder enrolled in a variety
of combined classroom and independent study programs.

Methodology

The principal methodology used in this rating was US Charter
Schools published in September 2016.

case to a liquidation under Chapter 7. The motion explains, "The

ROSENBAUM FARM: Exclusive Plan Filing Period Moved to Jan. 12
-------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Paul M. Black the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of Virginia has extended the exclusive period in which
Rosenbaum Farm, LLC and Rosenbaum Feeder Cattle, LLC may file a
Chapter 11 Plan, and the period during which the Debtors have the
exclusive right to solicit acceptances of that plan, until January
12, 2018 and March 13, 2018, respectively.

The Troubled Company Reporter has previously reported that the
Debtors asked the Court to extend their exclusive period in which
to file a Chapter 11 Plan, and the period during which the Debtors
have the exclusive right to solicit acceptances on such plan by 91
days, until February 16, 2018 and April 17, 2018, respectively.

The Debtors said they are seeking exclusivity extensions to allow
time for them, their estates and their creditors to pursue an
orderly plan process. The Debtors asserted that they are not
seeking this extension to delay the process for some speculative
event or to pressure creditors to accede to a plan that is
unsatisfactory to them. Indeed, as represented at the status
hearing on October 5, 2017, the Debtors have been pursuing
reorganization in an effort to maximize the recovery to its
creditors.

The Debtors primarily needed an extension of the Exclusivity
Periods to continue negotiations with its secured lender, Farm
Credit of the Virginias, ACA, regarding additional financing to
support a plan of reorganization. The Debtors were hopeful that
they can reach an agreement with Farm Credit, but the Debtors
needed additional time to do so. As such, the Debtors told the
Court that this additional time is reasonable under the
circumstances.

The Debtors also believed that they have excellent prospects for
filing a confirmable plan with or without Farm Credit’s consent,
but they would prefer to have a consensual plan and have presented
Farm Credit with a proposal.

           About Rosenbaum Farm and Rosenbaum Feeder

Rosenbaum Farm, LLC and Rosenbaum Feeder Cattle, LLC own a hog
feedlot facility at 36000 Allison Lane, Glade Spring, Virginia.

The Debtors sought protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code (Bankr. W.D. Va. Case Nos. 17-70962 and 17-70963) on July 20,
2017.  William Todd Rosenbaum, its secretary and treasurer, signed
the petitions.

At the time of the filing, both Debtors disclosed that they had
estimated assets and liabilities of $1 million to $10 million.

Judge Paul M. Black presides over the cases.  The Debtors hired
Stoll Keenon Ogden PLLC as bankruptcy counsel, and Browning, Lamie
& Gifford, P.C., as local counsel. The Debtors hired Hicok, Fern &
Company CPAs as their accountant and financial advisor.

SCIQUEST INC: S&P Assigns 'B' Corp. Credit Rating, Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned a 'B' corporate credit rating to
Morrisville, N.C.-based SciQuest Inc. The outlook is stable.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned our 'B' issue-level rating
and '3' recovery rating to Jaggaer's first-lien senior secured
credit facilities, consisting of  a $25 million revolver due 2022
and a $385 million first-lien term loan due 2024. The '3' recovery
rating indicates our expectation for meaningful (50% to 70%;
rounded estimate: 50%) recovery in the event of a payment default."


The transaction, which will refinance Jaggaer's debt to partly fund
its acquisition of BravoSolution, is expected to close on Dec. 29,
2017, subject to customary closing conditions.

The rating on Jaggaer reflects the company's niche product
offerings focused on spend management and procurement solutions,
small scale relative to software peers, and historically weak cash
flow generation. Partly offsetting these risks are the company's
high recurring revenue stream, diversified customer base, and high
net recurring revenue retention. S&P said, "The rating also
incorporates our expectation of high pro-forma leverage, which we
expect to remain above 6x through 2018. Although the acquisition of
BravoSolution will initially depress Jaggaer's EBITDA margins in
2018, we expect margins for the combined company to trend higher in
2019."

Jaggaer provides a number of cloud-based business automation
solutions for spend management and procurement across a number of
verticals including higher education, life sciences, health care,
public sector, consumer packaged goods, manufacturing, retail, and
transportation. Jaggaer generates the majority of its revenues in
North America (82%), and the company's revenues are primarily
concentrated in the higher education (47%) and commercial (35%) end
markets.

Jaggaer has over 900 customers with the vast majority generating
more than $1 billion in revenue each. Jaggaer's solutions help
customers to reduce procurement spend, enhance auditability, and
mitigate risk through increased compliance. The company's full
product suite covers procurement, sourcing, contract life-cycle
management (buy-side), spend analysis, accounts payable invoicing,
services procurement, supplier network, and supplier risk and
performance management. BravoSolution, founded in 2000, is a
leading global end-to-end cloud-based technology and services
provider for the procurement function. The company provides a full
product suite to support end-to-end source-to-pay management with
revenues concentrated in the commercial end market, which consists
of construction and oil and gas, and also participates in the
public sector.

S&P views the agreement to acquire BravoSolution as improving
Jaggaer's competitive position as the acquisition will nearly
double the firm's revenue scale and will provide a complimentary
suite of products, as well as significantly greater diversification
across end markets and geographies. Furthermore, the acquisition
creates meaningful cross-selling opportunities, as Jaggaer's
strengths historically have been in the downstream segments (e.g.,
sourcing, spend analysis, and supplier risk management), compared
to BravoSolution's historical strength in the upstream segments of
spend management (e.g., goods procurement, services procurement,
and contract life-cycle management). These positives are partly
offset by BravoSolution's lower recurring revenue and shorter term
contracts of one to three years associated with the commercial
segment. The combined company will have a fairly well diversified
end market exposure, although exposure to higher education remains
high at approximately a quarter of revenue.

S&P said, "Our financial risk profile assessment reflects expected
pro forma leverage below 7x and an expectation for deleveraging
over the next 12 months primarily from margin expansion. Our
financial risk profile also reflects that Jaggaer will be able to
generate significant cash flows over subsequent reporting period."


S&P's base-case scenario assumes the following:

-- U.S. GDP growth of 2.2% in 2017 and 2.3% in 2018. We expect
mid-single-digit percentage growth from the software market over
the next 12 months.

-- Low-single-digit percentage pro forma revenue growth for
Jaggaer in 2017 and 2018.

-- Increasing EBITDA margins in 2017 and 2018.

-- Capital expenditures around 2.5% of sales (excluding
capitalized software development costs).

-- Acquisitions will be limited to smaller tuck-in transactions.

Based on these assumptions S&P arrives at the following credit
metrics:

-- Pro forma adjusted debt to EBITDA of about 6.5x at Dec. 31,
2017, declining to the low-6x area in 2018.

-- Pro forma EBITDA interest coverage of 3x.

S&P said, "We view Jaggaer's liquidity to be adequate. For the next
12 months, sources are likely to exceed uses and we expect net
sources to remain positive, even if EBITDA declines by 15%."

Principal Liquidity Sources:

-- Cash and cash equivalents of approximately $11.5 million, pro
forma for the transaction.
-- $25 million revolving credit facility, limited by a springing
maximum net leverage covenant on the facility.

-- Cash funds from operations of approximately $35 million.

Principal Liquidity Uses:

-- Mandatory term loan amortization of approximately $3.9 million
annually.

-- Capital expenditures (excluding capitalized development costs)
of approximately $6 million.

S&P said, "Our stable outlook reflects our expectation that Jaggaer
will sustain leverage below 7x and successfully integrate
BravoSolution. We expect the combined company to generate
significant cash flows and leverage to decline primarily from
improving margins at BravoSolution. While we believe that there is
significant upside potential for Jaggaer to benefit from revenue
synergies from BravoSolution, we do see execution risk associated
with the realization of cost synergies.

"We could lower the rating if Jaggaer's leverage is sustained above
7x or if the company is not successful in integrating
BravoSolution, leading to a disruption of the business. An
inability to generate meaningful cash flows and EBITDA margins
could also lead to a downgrade.

"Although unlikely over the next 12 months, over the longer term we
would look to leverage sustained below 5x and greater revenue
diversity and scale as potential factors for an upgrade."


SEDGWICK INC: S&P Affirms 'B' ICR, Off CreditWatch
--------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings said it affirmed its 'B' long-term issuer credit
rating on Sedgwick Inc. and Sedgwick Claims Management Services
Inc. and removed the ratings from CreditWatch Negative, where they
were placed Dec. 6, 2017, following Sedgwick's announcement that it
entered into a purchase agreement to acquire Cunningham Lindsey, a
global loss-adjusting, claims-management, and risk-solutions
company.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned our 'B' debt rating to
Sedgwick's proposed incremental $735 million (fungible) first-lien
term loan due 2021, with a '3' recovery rating, indicating our
expectation of meaningful (rounded estimate: 65%) recovery in the
event of a payment default. We also assigned our 'CCC+' debt rating
to Sedgwick's proposed $200 million (nonfungible) second-lien term
loan due 2022, with a '6' recovery rating, indicating our
expectation of negligible (rounded estimate: 5%) recovery in the
event of a payment default.

"The stable outlook on Sedgwick Inc. reflects our expectation that
favorable U.S. employment conditions combined with the company's
high client retention, new client wins, and increased
product/service cross-selling will drive mid-single-digit revenue
growth, with revenues reaching close to $2.7 billion in 2018 and
$2.8 billion in 2019. Sedgwick's adjusted EBITDA margins in the
high double digits, blended with Cunningham Lindsey's adjusted
EBITDA margins in the low-to-mid double digits will yield combined
EBITDA margins in the 17%-18% range for 2018-2019. We expect the
company to use discretionary free cash flows of $80 million-$100
million in 2018-2019 for a mix of acquisitions and debt repayment,
leading to adjusted leverage of close to 7x by year-end 2018 and
6x-6.5x by year-end 2019. Adjusted EBITDA interest coverage will be
2x-2.5x in 2018-2019.

"We could lower our ratings during the next 12 months if Sedgwick's
credit profile were to deteriorate due to intense competitive
pressure, revenue and client losses, higher-than-expected operating
costs, acquisition/integration issues, and/or further meaningful
debt issuance. Key downgrade parameters could include
lower-than-expected earnings with adjusted EBITDA margins
approaching the low end of 10%-20%, higher sustained adjusted
leverage (above 8x) and/or lower sustained EBITDA interest coverage
(below 2x).

"Given the rating affirmation, we are unlikely to raise the rating
in the next 12 months. However, we would consider an upgrade beyond
this time frame if the company further grows and diversifies its
business and improves its EBITDA margins. In addition, we would
consider an upgrade if the company demonstrates a less-aggressive
financial policy with lower sustainable leverage (below 5x) and
higher EBITDA interest coverage (at the high end of 3x-4x).

"We are assigning our 'B' issue-level rating with a '3' recovery
rating (rounded estimate: 65%) to Sedgwick's proposed $735 million
incremental (fungible) first-lien term loan due 2021, and our
'CCC+' issue-level rating with a '6' recovery rating (rounded
estimate: 5%) to the proposed $200 million incremental
(nonfungible) second-lien term loan due 2022.

"We have valued the company on a going-concern basis using a 6x
multiple (at the high end of our general 5x-6x range for insurance
services companies) over our projected emergence EBITDA because of
Sedgwick's stronger business risk profile compared with most TPA
and health care services peers.

"Our simulated default scenario contemplates a payment default in
2020 arising from intense competition leading to client losses,
significantly lower revenue, and/or higher-than-expected operating
costs.

"We believe lenders would achieve the greatest recovery value
through reorganization rather than liquidation of the business.

"We assume that under the new capital structure, Cunningham
Lindsey's domestic subsidiaries will become guarantors of
Sedgwick's debt, while the foreign subsidiaries will be
nonguarantors (but with 65% equity pledges)."

-- Simulated year of default: 2020
-- EBITDA at emergence: $275 million
-- EBITDA multiple: 6x
-- Gross recovery value: $1.65 billion
-- Net recovery value for waterfall (after 5% administrative
expenses): $1.57 billion
-- Obligor/non-obligor split: 83%/17%
-- Total collateral value available: $1.47 billion
-- Value available to unsecured claims: $93 million
-- Total collateral value available to secured debt: $1.47
billion
-- Total first-lien debt: $2.22 billion
-- Total (collateral + deficiency) first-lien recovery: 50%-70%
(65% rounded estimate)
-- Implied recovery rating: '3'
-- Total collateral value available to second priority debt: $0.0
billion
-- Value available to unsecured claims: $93 million
-- Total second-lien debt: $870 million
-- Total unsecured claims: $1.6 billion
-- Total (collateral + deficiency) second-lien recovery: 0%-10%
(5% rounded estimate)
-- Implied recovery rating: '6'

SPEED LUBE: Suits U Buying Peoria Property for $245K
----------------------------------------------------
Speed Lube, LLC, asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Illinois to authorize the sale of real property located
at 703, 705, 707 and 709 N. Western Avenue, Peoria, Illinois to
Suits U Realty, LLC for $245,000.

The Debtor commenced the case to facilitate an orderly liquidation
of its assets, which consist of real estate and improvements at 21
of its former retail locations, a subdivision in Pocahontas,
Illinois, and a home in Edwardsville, Illinois.  One of the
properties the Debtor owns is the Property.  

The Property is subject to a first mortgage lien in favor of
Prairie State Bank and Trust.  As of July 14, 2017, the amount due
and owing to Prairie State and secured by the Property was
$113,602, plus additional accruing interest, costs, expenses and
attorney fees to the extent permitted under Section 506 of the
United States Bankruptcy Code.  However, the mortgage under which
Prairie State asserts a lien against the Property includes a
"future advance" clause, under which Prairie State asserts a right
to payment in the aggregate sum of $194,833.

The Debtor has negotiated a sale of the Property to the Purchaser
for the sum of $245,000, with $5,000 earnest money, according to
the terms of a certain Real Estate Purchase Agreement.  The Debtor
proposes to sell the Property free of liens claims and
encumbrances.

From the proceeds of the sale, the Debtor will pay all applicable
prepetition commissions from the proceeds of sale, other applicable
closing costs, and (d) Prairie State of the net proceeds of sale at
the time of closing.

In addition to the foregoing, prior to commencement of the Chapter
11 case, the Debtor engaged the services of Maloof Commercial Real
Estate Co. as real estate broker with respect to the Property.
Under the terms of that engagement, the Broker is entitled to a
commission equal to 6% of the sale price for the Property.  The
Broker procured the Purchaser and the Agreement, and, therefore, is
entitled to payment of a commission equal to 6% of the sale price
of the Property.

The sale of the Property will substantially reduce the Debtor's
secured debts and make possible the potential for sums to be
available to unsecured creditors.

STANDARD INDUSTRIES: Moody's Rates New Unsec. Notes Due 2028 Ba2
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned a Ba2 rating to Standard
Industries Inc.'s proposed senior unsecured notes due 2028.
Proceeds from these notes will be used to redeem company's existing
5.125% $500 million senior unsecured notes due 2021, at which time
the rating for this debt will be withdrawn. The balance of
proceeds, after paying tender/make whole premium, accrued interest,
and related fees and expenses, will increase cash on hand for
general corporate purposes. Moody's expect the proposed notes to
have similar terms and conditions as company's existing Ba2 rated
senior unsecured notes, ranking pari-passu to each other in a
recovery scenario. Additionally, Moody's affirmed Standard's Ba2
Corporate Family Rating and its Ba2-PD Probability of Default
Rating. The rating outlook is stable.

In related rating action, Moody's withdrew the corporate family
rating, probability of default rating, and rating outlook assigned
to BMI Group Holdings UK Limited. Standard combined Braas Monier
and Icopal Holding ApS into BMI Group Holdings UK Limited ("BMI"),
its indirect, wholly-owned European holding subsidiary. BMBG Bond
Finance S.C.A., issuer of EUR435 million senior secured notes due
06/15/2021, is an indirect, wholly-owned, holding subsidiary of
Standard Industries. Ba2 rating assigned to these notes is not
impacted. The following ratings are affected by this action:

Assignments:

Issuer: Standard Industries Inc.

-- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Assigned Ba2 (LGD4)

Outlook Actions:

Issuer: BMI Group Holdings UK Limited

-- Outlook, Changed To Rating Withdrawn From Stable

Issuer: Standard Industries Inc.

-- Outlook, Remains Stable

Affirmations:

Issuer: Standard Industries Inc.

-- Probability of Default Rating, Affirmed Ba2-PD

-- Corporate Family Rating, Affirmed Ba2

-- Senior Unsecured Regular Bond/Debenture, Affirmed Ba2 (LGD4)

Withdrawals:

Issuer: BMI Group Holdings UK Limited

-- Probability of Default Rating, Withdrawn, previously rated
    Ba2-PD

-- Corporate Family Rating, Withdrawn, previously rated Ba2

RATINGS RATIONALE

Moody's views anticipated lower pricing and maturity date extension
for the notes as credit positives, though absolute levels of cash
interest payments will increase moderately due to higher debt
balances. Additional cash on hand adds to company's liquidity
profile. Moody's calculates pro forma interest coverage
approximating 3.4x for LTM 3Q17 and debt leverage of around 4.0x at
October 1, 2017. Moody's calculations include standard adjustments
for operating leases and pension liabilities, in addition to
full-year earnings and assumption of related debt and pension
obligations from Braas Monier Building Group S.A. ("Braas Monier"),
acquired in May 2017.

However, Standard's debt leverage characteristics currently pose
the greatest credit challenge, which is a direct result of the
debt-financed acquisition of Icopal Holding ApS in April 2016, and
partially debt-financed acquisition of Braas Monier. Upon closing
the proposed notes issuance, balance sheet debt will total about
$4.5 billion. Braas Monier has sizeable pension liabilities,
totaling $425 million at FYE15 (last date at which this pension
liability is publicly disclosed). Standard's total adjusted balance
is about $5.2 billion pro forma at 3Q17, a sizeable increase from
$2.4 billion at FYE15. Net cash interest payments will exceed
slightly $225 million per year. Standard has a debt structure (six
long-term notes) that does not lend itself well to deleveraging.
Moody's believe the company would not want to pay sizeable premium
to exercise early repayment. Hence, Standard must continue to grow
its earnings in order to improve key debt credit metrics.

Standard's liquidity profile, a key credit strength, providing a
significant offset to its debt leveraged capital structure. Moody's
believe the company is committed to maintaining substantial
liquidity at all times. Standard will generate free cash throughout
the year. Cash on hand is sizeable with most located in the U.S.
Moody's analysis considers potential future dividends to G-I
Holdings Inc., Standard's indirect parent holding company. Moody's
believe ownership will continue to monetize its investment in
Standard to the extent the company generates sufficient earnings
and cash flow to support these dividends. Liquidity is supported
further by its $650 million asset-based revolving credit facility
expiring in 2020. Moody's project Standard having full access,
since it has cash to make up for the lack of eligible receivables
and inventory. Due to large net cash balances, Moody's do not
anticipate utilization of the revolver over the next year. Standard
has good alternate sources of liquidity, since its domestic
long-term assets and most of Icopal's assets are unencumbered.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Global
Manufacturing Companies published in June 2017.

Standard Industries Inc., headquartered in Parsippany, NJ,
manufactures and sells residential and commercial roofing and
waterproofing products, insulation products, aggregates, specialty
construction and other products. Its building products businesses
collectively represent the world's largest manufacturer and
marketer of roofing products and accessories with operations
primarily in North America and Europe. Annualized revenues
approximate $5.6 billion. Standard Industries is privately-owned
and does not disclose publicly available financial information.


STEINWAY MUSICAL: S&P Alters Outlook to Stable & Affirms 'B-' CCR

S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B-' corporate credit rating on
Steinway Musical Instruments Inc. and revised the outlook to stable
from negative.

S&P said, "At the same time, we affirmed our 'B-' issue-level
rating on the company's $305 million first-lien term loan that
matures in September 2019. The recovery rating remains '3'
indicating our expectations for a meaningful (50%-70%; rounded
estimate: 50%) recovery in the event of payment default. Total
reported debt outstanding as of Sept. 30, 2017 was $314.6
million."

The outlook revision to stable from negative on Steinway Musical
Instruments reflects the successful extension of its $75 million
ABL facility from September 2018 to April 2019 as well as the
overall improved operational performance over the past several
quarters.

The stable outlook reflects S&P Global's view that Steinway will
sustain its recent operational improvements over the next 12 months
as the company continues to expand its retail showroom strategy,
which has resulted in lower advertising expense and top line
growth, with further store openings occurring through 2018.

S&P said, "We could revise the outlook to negative if the company
is not successful at completing a refinancing of its entire capital
structure, including its $75 million ABL and $305 million first
lien term loan, over the next several quarters.  We could also
revise the outlook to negative if leverage increases meaningfully,
free cash flow is negative, or covenant cushion falls below 10%.

"We could raise our rating over the next six months if the company
launches a roughly leverage neutral refinancing of its entire
capital structure and we believe it will successfully extend the
maturity dates and increase forecasted covenant cushion beyond 15%.
The upgrade would also be predicated upon the company sustaining
its recent operational improvements including maintaining annual
free operating cash flow of over $10 million."

T3M INC: Reopens Under New Ownership & Management
-------------------------------------------------
T3 Holdings, Inc., d/b/a T3 Motion, Inc., on Nov. 30, 2017,
announced its acquisition of the former operations of T3M, Inc.,
under a final order of the United States Bankruptcy Court, Central
District of California, whereas T3 Holdings, Inc., acquired
essentially all of the assets of the debtor T3MI.  The final order
of the court was entered on November 27, 2017.

T3 Motion, originally founded in 2006, pioneered and patented the
design of the 3 Wheel Electric Standup Vehicle, used throughout law
enforcement and commercial security operations worldwide.  To date,
T3's are in use by more than 350 domestic and international law
enforcement agencies including approximately 50 of the world's
largest international airports.

Under the company's new ownership, T3 Motion, has evolved into a
well-capitalized, debt free, private operating company with its
manufacturing headquarters located in Ontario, CA, and with a
wholly owned Chinese subsidiary, operating in China, building a
modified version of its domestic T3 Patroller(TM) Series vehicle
for distribution throughout Asia.

All U.S. and international customers, outside of Asia, will
continue to receive vehicles built exclusively in the United States
following the company's long-term commitment to "Made in America."
The company is also aggressively pursuing its enforcement rights of
its large intellectual property portfolio, to stop the unauthorized
and illegal manufacturing of Chinese cloned vehicles which have
been being offered for sale in mainland China and in some regions
of the United States, by previous employees of the company.

T3 Motion, under the management of industry leading professionals,
will continue to focus its efforts on providing the highest quality
service in the industry, as well as the expansion of the company's
leading-edge technologies, into numerous new markets, including the
expanding recreational vehicle market.

T3 Motion, as the dominant global manufacturer of Electric Standup
Vehicle Technology with an estimated 84% market share, continues to
lead the market with its iconic T3 Patroller(TM) and new T3
Vision(TM) Series vehicles which have been designed and field
tested for more than a decade.  When it comes to meeting the
demands and harsh environments of governmental law enforcement,
campus and professional security and patrol operations, clearly, T3
has established itself as the vehicle platform of choice for both
indoor and outdoor applications.

                        About T3M Inc.

Founded in 2006 in Costa Mesa, California, and previously known as
T3 Motion, Inc., T3M Inc. designs, manufactures and markets
personal mobility vehicles powered by electric motors to the
professional and consumer markets.  Its initial product is the T3
Series, a three wheel, electric stand-up vehicle powered by a
quiet, zero-gas emission electric motor that is designed
specifically for public and private security personnel.

T3M Inc. sought protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
(Bankr. C.D. Cal. Case No. 17-14082) on May 15, 2017.  Mi "Michael"
Zhang, president, signed the petition.  The Debtor estimated assets
and debt at $1 million to $10 million as of the bankruptcy filing.

Notwithstanding Bankruptcy Rule 6004(h) or otherwise, the Order

USS ULTIMATE: Moody's Affirms B3 CFR; Outlook Stable
----------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed USS Ultimate Holdings, Inc.'s
("United Site Services" and "USS") credit ratings. The Corporate
Family Rating ("CFR") was affirmed at B3, the Probability of
Default Rating ("PDR") at B3-PD, the senior secured 1st lien at B2
and the senior secured 2nd lien at Caa2. The rating outlook remains
stable.

USS announced it intends to raise $140 million in incremental 1st
lien term loans. USS plans to use $35 million of the cash to fund a
pending acquisition and about $40 million to pay-off current
full-service vehicle leases and acquire those vehicles. The
remaining cash will be available for future acquisitions or other
uses and to pay transaction related fees and expenses. Moody's
believes the transaction is moderately credit negative because it
increases debt and leverage while the specific use for some of the
proceeds is not fully determined.

Moody's affirmed the following USS Ultimate Holdings, Inc.
ratings:

-- Corporate Family Rating, at B3

-- Probability of Default Rating, at B3-PD

-- Senior secured 1st lien term loan due 2024, at B2 (LGD3)

-- Senior secured 2nd lien term loan due 2025 at Caa2 (LGD5)

Outlook:

-- Outlook is Stable

RATINGS RATIONALE

The B3 CFR reflects USS' highly leveraged capital structure, its
limited operating scale with revenue concentration in the highly
cyclical residential and commercial construction end markets, and
aggressive growth strategies featuring multiple debt-financed
acquisitions. Moody's anticipates the company will deleverage from
currently elevated levels only slowly as a result of EBITDA growth.
Moody's expects future debt-financed acquisitions, so debt balances
will not decline materially or will increase. Debt-to-EBITDA is
expected to remain above 6.0 times over the next 12-18 months. Free
cash flow will be limited in 2018 by elevated capital expenditures
driven by an ERP system implementation and the planned fleet lease
exit. Other financial metrics, including EBITA to interest coverage
around 1.75 times and EBITDA margins solidly above 20%, are solid
for the B3 rating category.

All financial metrics cited reflect Moody's standard adjustments.

The rating favorably considers United Site Services' leading,
defensible market position within the fragmented portable
sanitation and related site service solutions market. High customer
retention rates and Moody's expectation for favorable conditions in
the construction sector over the next 12-18 months provide ratings
support. The company has scale advantages over many smaller
competitors and long-standing relationships with customers. For
customers like construction companies, portable sanitation is
considered an essential service.

Moody's considers USS' to have good liquidity. Expectation of flat
to negative free cash flow, driven by high capital spending in
2018, is balanced by over $100 million of available cash pro forma
for the incremental term loan and ample availability under the $85
million asset-based (ABL) revolving credit facility (unrated).

The stable outlook reflects Moody's projection for top-line growth
both organically and through bolt-on acquisitions, and that USS
will increase profitability as operational improvements and route
density benefits are realized. The stable outlook also reflects
Moody's expectation that the company will maintain adequate
liquidity over the next 12-15 months.

Moody's could upgrade the ratings if debt reduction combined with
sustained earnings growth leads to a material improvement in credit
metrics, such that debt-to-EBITDA leverage is maintained below 6.0
times and EBITA to interest expense will remain above 1.25 times.

The ratings could be downgraded if revenue growth slows or
profitability declines, leading Moody's to anticipate negative free
cash flow on sustained basis. A downgrade would be warranted if
debt-to-EBITDA is sustained above 7.0 times or if EBITA to interest
expense falls below 1.0 time.

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

Headquartered in Westborough, MA and controlled by affiliates of
financial sponsor Platinum Equity, USS is a provider of portable
sanitation units, temporary fencing, storage containers and
temporary electric equipment serving the construction, commercial
and industrial, special event, government agency and other end
markets. Moody's expects revenues of approximately $550 million in
2018.

Jay Eisenberg - Trusts and Estates.  With almost 30 years of
experience in ever-changing tax and estate/trust laws, Jay crafts

purchase or sale transactions or ownership issues.  Over the past
decade, Mort has consistently been named a top attorney by the
Washingtonian Magazine, The Best Lawyers in America and Super

Michael Lichtenstein - Bankruptcy Law.  Creditors, financial
institutions and debtors in need of assistance with bankruptcy and
commercial litigation turn to Michael because of his successful
record of debt restructuring and recovery of distressed loans.  He
represents companies across a wide range of industries in large
Chapter 11 proceedings with debts ranging from $25 to $400 million.
A frequent author for national bankruptcy journals, he is
recognized by Super Lawyers, The Best Lawyers in America,
Martindale-Hubbell, Chambers Partners and The Washington Post as
one of the area's leading bankruptcy attorneys.

Michael Nakamura - Personal Injury.  Mike has successfully won
compensation for victims of personal injury and medical malpractice
claims across the country.  Earlier this year, he secured a $5
million award for the Florida family of a birth injury victim.  He
regularly secures just and fair compensation for victims of
catastrophic motor vehicle accidents, wrongful death, medical

birth injury.  Clients note Mike's compassion and his personal
service.  He holds the highest ratings available from
Martindale-Hubbell and AVVO.

                            *********

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.
