------------------------------------------------------------------

protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District
of New York. According to court filings, the debtor reports between
$100,001 and $1,000,000 in debt owed to 1–49 creditors.

              About 101 W 55th Restaurant Inc.

101 W 55th Restaurant Inc. operates in the hospitality and food
service industry, providing dining services to customers in New
York City. The company manages restaurant operations that offer
food and beverage services in a competitive urban dining market.

101 W 55th Restaurant Inc. sought relief under Chapter 11 of the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. Case No. 26-10463) on March 04, 2026.
In its petition, the debtor reports estimated assets between $0 and
$100,000 and estimated liabilities between $100,001 and
$1,000,000.

Honorable Bankruptcy Judge Michael E. Wiles handles the case.

The debtor is represented by Robert Leslie Rattet, Esq. of Davidoff
Hutcher & Citron LLP.


1251 FOURTH: Gets OK to Use Cash Collateral
-------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California,
Los Angeles Division issued an order authorizing 1251 Fourth Street
Investors, LLC to use cash collateral through May 31 based on a
stipulation with City National Bank.

This allows the Debtor to continue operating and paying expenses
using funds that are subject to the bank's security interest while
the bankruptcy case proceeds. The Debtor can use cash collateral
according to an approved operating budget, with a 5% variance per
line item unless amended with the bank's written consent.

Under the order, the Debtor is authorized to make the November
2025–February 2026 payments to City National Bank from the
debtor-in-possession (DIP) account.

Meanwhile, City National Bank is authorized to transfer certain
swap-transaction payments back to the Debtor's DIP account if they
have not already been paid.

As protection, the court granted replacement liens and
superpriority claims to City National Bank. These replacement liens
cover nearly all of the Debtor's present and future assets if the
value of the bank's original collateral decreases due to the use of
cash collateral or the bankruptcy automatic stay. The bank's
superpriority claim gives it priority over most other
administrative and unsecured claims in the Debtor's bankruptcy
case.

Another creditor, George Gelsebach (Trustee of the George Gelsebach
2010 Trust), was granted a replacement lien although those liens
remain subordinate to the bank's liens.

If a default occurs under the stipulation, the Debtor's right to
use cash collateral will terminate after three business days'
written notice from City National Bank.

              About 1251 Fourth Street Investors LLC

Fourth Street Investors LLC is a single asset real estate company.

The Debtor commenced its Chapter 11 case (Bankr. C.D. Cal. Case No.

ACCENDRA HEALTH: Fitch Lowers IDR to 'B', Still On Watch Negative
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded Accendra Health, Inc.'s (ACH)
Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) to 'B' from 'B+' and senior
secured debt to 'BB' with a Recovery Rating of 'RR1' from
'BB+'/'RR1'. Fitch has maintained both ratings on Rating Watch
Negative (RWN). Fitch has downgraded ACH's senior unsecured debt to
'CCC+'/'RR6' from 'B'/'RR5' and placed it on Rating Watch Evolving
(RWE).

The downgrade reflects Fitch's expectation that EBITDA leverage
will remain above 5.0x through 2027 due to a large contract loss
and lower debt reduction from the Product & Healthcare Services
(P&HS) divestiture than Fitch previously assumed.

Fitch expects to resolve the Rating Watches around the time of the
refinancing of the 2027 maturities and expected debt repayment.
Fitch may assign a Stable or Negative Outlook upon the resolution
depending on operating trends. The RWE on the unsecured debt
reflects the potential for it to be downgraded if the IDR is
downgraded and upgraded if the final amount of secured debt repaid
results in improved recoveries.

Fitch has also downgraded the ratings for Owens & Minor Medical,
Inc., Owens & Minor Distribution Inc. and O&M Halyard, Inc. Fitch
has subsequently withdrawn the ratings on these entities, as they
are no longer ACH's subsidiaries following the divestiture.
Accordingly, Fitch will no longer provide ratings or analytical
coverage for these entities.

Key Rating Drivers

Elevated Leverage Following Divestiture: Fitch expects EBITDA
leverage to remain above 5.0x through 2027, exceeding the negative
rating sensitivity threshold. The elevated leverage reflects
lower-than-anticipated debt reduction from the P&HS divestiture and
EBITDA pressure from the loss of a large commercial payor. Fitch
expects ACH to prioritize debt reduction, with net sale proceeds
and FCF applied primarily toward debt repayment over the next
couple years, though FCF generation may be constrained in 2026 by
separation-related costs. FCF/debt should improve to above 5% in
2027 due to lower capex and separation costs

Near-term Margin Pressure: Fitch-defined EBITDA margin is assumed
to decline below 12.5% in 2026 primarily due to the commercial
payor contract loss and manufacturer cost increases. FCF margin is
assumed to be approximately 1.5% in 2026 as most separation costs
are incurred. Fitch assumes EBITDA margin to gradually improve to
approximately 13% and FCF margin to be above 4% by 2028 as the
company executes cost reduction measures to mitigate stranded costs
and normalize the cost structure and as one-time separation-related
expenses subside.

Heightened Refinancing Risk: ACH faces a significant refinancing
wall with its $450 million RCF ($204 million drawn) and $326
million Term Loan A both maturing in March 2027. Fitch expects to
resolve the RWN upon the refinancing of these maturities and Fitch
expects ACH to have sufficient operating cash flow to absorb higher
debt servicing costs if refinanced on less favorable terms.

Revenue and Supplier Concentration: ACH's pure-play positioning in
home-based care improves margins but reduces business
diversification and increases earnings volatility as revenues are
more concentrated. The two largest commercial payors accounted for
about 37% of 2025 revenue (23% and 14%, respectively). The loss of
roughly 12% of revenue from certain contract terminations by the
largest payor could take multiple years to replace given
competition. Fitch also believes ACH faces notable supplier
concentration with limited alternative sourcing options,
constraining its ability to mitigate manufacturer cost increases
and negotiate favorable pricing terms.

Reimbursement Headwinds: CMS is relaunching the DMEPOS Competitive
Bidding Program with bidding expected in late 2026 and
implementation by January 2028. The program's expansion into ACH's
core categories (diabetes devices, urological and ostomy supplies)
and more restrictive pricing methodology could pressure margins.
While ACH generates about 80% of revenue from commercial payers,
competitive dynamics may force pricing concessions in non-Medicare
contracts as market rates decrease. ACH's scale, multi-state
footprint and established referral networks position it better than
smaller competitors to win contracts, but Medicare profitability
will likely compress.

Peer Analysis

The home medical equipment and supplies market is highly fragmented
and competitive. ACH competes primarily with large national DME
providers such as AdaptHealth Corp. and Lincare Holdings Inc.
(owned by Linde plc), along with numerous regional and local
providers serving patients' homes. Compared with AdaptHealth Corp,
ACH has a narrower geographic footprint, weaker profitability, and
much higher leverage.

Following the P&HS divestiture, ACH's increased business
concentration increases its vulnerability to payer reimbursement
changes and competitive pressures relative to larger, more
diversified distributor peers. ACH's rating is lower than that of
the larger, investment-grade rated distributor peers (including the
pharmaceutical distributors) as a result of its scale, limited
diversification and higher leverage.

Fitch equalizes the ratings of ACH and its subsidiaries as the
entities are co-borrowers under the facilities to reflect the
cross-guarantees between the entities.

Fitch’s Key Rating-Case Assumptions

- 2026 revenue declines to $2.6 billion due to major commercial
payor contract loss; 2027-2028 revenue grows at low-single-digit
rates, primarily driven by volume;

- Fitch-calculated EBITDA margin falls below 12.5% in 2026,
reflecting the impact of commercial payor contract loss and
manufacturer cost inflation; margins improve to approximately 13%
by 2028 through cost structure normalization;

- Net capex is assumed between $100 million to $123 million per
year;

- FCF margin improves from around 1.5% in 2026 towards 4.5% in 2028
as restructuring and separation-related cash outflows decline;

- Effective interest rate ranges from 6.2% to 6.5% over the
forecast period, moving with SOFR;

- Over $250 million in net proceeds from P&HS sale applied to debt
repayment in 2026, and subsequent FCF also directed toward debt
reduction. No acquisitions or shareholder returns are assumed over
the forecast period;

Corporate Rating Tool Inputs and Scores

Fitch scored ACH as follows, using the Corporate Rating Tool (CRT)
to produce the Standalone Credit Profile (SCP):

- The business and financial profile factors are assessed as
follows: Management ('b+', lower), Sector Characteristics ('bb+',
lower), Market and Competitive Positioning ('bb-', moderate),
Diversification and Asset Quality ('bb-', moderate), Company
Operational Characteristics ('bb-', moderate), Profitability ('b',
higher), Financial Structure ('b', higher), and Financial
Flexibility ('b+', moderate).

- The quantitative financial subfactors are assessed based on
standard financial period parameters of 20% weight for the
historical fiscal year 2025, 40% for the forecast year 2026 and 40%
for the forecast year 2027.

- B+ to CC considerations apply in its analysis and result in no
adjustment.

- The Governance assessment of 'Good' results in no adjustment.

- The Operating Environment assessment of 'aa-' results in no
adjustment.

- The SCP is 'b'.

Recovery Analysis

Fitch conducts a bespoke analysis to assign instrument ratings to
issuers with IDRs of 'B+' and below. The recovery analysis assumes
that Accendra Health, Inc. would be considered a going concern (GC)
in bankruptcy and that the company would be reorganized rather than
liquidated. The recovery analysis assumes the revolving credit
facility will be fully drawn (with first lien debt totaling $1.3
billion) and the Receivables Sale Program will not be available
during bankruptcy and will be replaced by an equivalent
super-senior facility (assumed to be $105 million).

Fitch estimates an enterprise value (EV) on a GC basis of $1.25
billion, based on a GC EBITDA of $250 million and a 6.0x EV
multiple before a 10% deduction for administrative claims.

The GC EBITDA assumes that ACH enters bankruptcy following
liquidity exhaustion driven by revenue declines and margin
compression from competition to around $250 million and that the
restructuring would focus on the liabilities rather than operations
thus the EBITDA upon emergence would be similar to that upon
entrance. Fitch has revised these assumptions to reflect the sale
of the PH&S segment.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Significant revenue and EBITDA declines from payor contract
losses, unfavorable reimbursement changes, or failure to execute
cost reduction actions;

- Increasing refinancing risk should 2027 maturities are not
addressed at least 6 months in advance;

- Gross EBITDA leverage sustained above 6.0x and (CFO-capex)/debt
sustained below 0%.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- Sustained revenue and EBITDA margin expansion driven by new payor
contract wins, patient volume growth, improved product mix toward
higher-margin categories, enhanced collection rates, and effective
cost structure optimization;

- Gross EBITDA leverage sustained below 5.0x and (CFO-capex)/debt
above 3.0%.

Liquidity and Debt Structure

As of Dec. 31, 2025, ACH's liquidity sources include $282 million
cash on hand and $217 million availability under the $450 million
RCF. ACH also has a Receivables Sale Program with a maximum
capacity of $150 million, which is not included in Fitch's sources
of liquidity.

ACH's debt profile includes a $326 million Term Loan A and a $450
million RCF, both maturing in March 2027, with remaining debt due
in 2029 and 2030. Fitch expects available cash and modest FCF to
cover debt service through 2027, assuming the secured overnight
financing rate (SOFR) remains around 3.5%.

Issuer Profile

Accendra Health, Inc. offers products and services for in-home care
and delivery for diabetes treatment, home respiratory therapy,
obstructive sleep apnea treatment and patient support services. The
company supplies other home medical equipment and patient care
product lines.

ANNALEE DOLLS: Doll Making Assets Sale to Burr Ridge Advisors OK'd
------------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Hampshire has
permitted Annalee Dolls LLC to sell Property, free and clear of
liens, claims, interests, and encumbrances.

Debtor is a New Hampshire limited liability company owned by Andrew
Button (majority) and Derek Beaudoin (minority). The Stalking Horse
is the DIP Lender to Debtor. The Debtor intends to propose a plan
of reorganization for the assets that are not subject to the sale
Motion.

The Purchased Assets consist of: The DIP Lender Subject Property,
which includes all of the following property of the estate on the
Sale Date subject to valid and enforceable, perfected first
priority security interests and other liens granted by the DIP
Financing Approval Orders to  the extent of the value conferred on
DIP Lender thereby within the meaning of Bankruptcy Code Section
506: all inventory not in the possession of the Debtor on the
Petition Date, except any thereof subject to contracts for sale in
the ordinary course; and all post-petition receivables arising from
the New Inventory.

The Court has authorized the Debtor to sell the Property to Burr
Ridge Advisors, LLC or its assignee in the purchase price of
$950,000.

As demonstrated by the representation of the Debtor, the Debtor and
Buyer established by a preponderance of the evidence that the Sale
satisfies the requirements of Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code
and is in the best interests of the estate.

The Stalking Horse Agreement was negotiated and entered into by
Debtor and the Burr Ridge in the first instance without collusion,
in good faith, and from arm's-length albeit unequal bargaining
positions. Burr Ridge and Debtor negotiated the Stalking Horse
Agreement in good faith to accommodate the requirements of the
parties.

The Debtor and Buyer have disclosed the fact that Buyer intends to
enter into personal services agreements with Debtor's equity
holders, Andrew Button and Derek Beaudoin, to manage the business
operations of Buyer for which they will be compensated.

The Buyer agreed to this arrangement because it has no experience
in the operation or management of a company engaged in the business
of selling dolls.

Neither Burr Ridge nor Buyer nor any of their affiliates,
successors or assigns, as a result of any action taken in
connection with the purchase of the Subject Property.

Burr Ridge and Buyer as assignee would not have entered into the
Stalking Horse Agreement and would not consummate the Sale
contemplated thereby, thus adversely affecting Debtor, the estate,
creditors and other parties in interests, if the transfer of the
Subject Property were not free and clear of all Liens, Claims and
Interests

The Debtor shall be and is authorized to execute and deliver, and
is empowered to perform under, close and implement the Stalking
Horse Agreement.

ANTHOLOGY INC: Creditors Advised by Davis Polk in Restructuring
---------------------------------------------------------------
Davis Polk advised an ad hoc group of creditors in connection with
the successful restructuring of Anthology Inc. (rebranded as
Blackboard) and certain of its affiliates. Members of the ad hoc
group backstopped a $100 million debtor-in-possession (DIP)
financing and an approximately $72 million new money preferred
equity financing.

Anthology Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates filed
voluntary chapter 11 petitions in the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the Southern District of Texas on September 29, 2025.
Shortly before the filing, the ad hoc group, which at that time
held approximately 87% and 68% of Anthology's prepetition
superpriority first-out term loans and second-out term loans,
respectively, executed a restructuring support agreement with
Anthology. Among other things, the restructuring support agreement
provided for a sale process supported by stalking horse bids for
Anthology's Enterprise Operations, Lifecycle Engagement and Student
Success business segments, as well as a restructuring of
Anthology's remaining Teaching & Learning business with new money
preferred equity financing backstopped by members of the ad hoc
group. The go-forward company will do business as Blackboard.

On November 11, 2025, the Bankruptcy Court approved the sales of
the Enterprise Operations, Lifecycle Engagement and Student Success
businesses to the stalking horse bidders. The sales closed on
December 31, 2025 and January 31, 2026. On January 23, 2026, the
Bankruptcy Court confirmed Anthology's plan of reorganization for
its Teaching & Learning business, approving the comprehensive
restructuring backed by the ad hoc group. As a result of the plan,
which went effective on February 27, 2026, approximately $1.6
billion in funded debt was eliminated, and restructured Blackboard
emerged from chapter 11 as a fully delevered business.

Blackboard is an educational technology platform, serving thousands
of institutions.

APLD COMPUTECO 2: Fitch Assigns 'BB-(EXP)' IDR, Outlook Stable
--------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned APLD ComputeCo 2 LLC an expected
'BB-(EXP)' Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR). Fitch has also
assigned the company's proposed $2.15 billion senior secured notes
an expected 'BB-(EXP)' rating. The Rating Outlook is Stable.

The rating for APLD ComputeCo 2's 200 MW data center in North
Dakota reflects completion and operating risks. The project is in
early construction, with exposure to some cost escalation and
contractors with modest experience. The schedule is tight, with
punitive rent credits, and a tenant termination right for delays
beyond 150 days. Mitigants include adequate buffer for cost
escalations, locked-in equipment pricing, and the lender's
technical advisor's view that the schedule is achievable. The power
substation has yet to be built, and delays could affect revenue. In
operation, the project has no lease renewal risk, and its financial
profile aligns with the rating. The IDR matches the debt ratings,
reflecting senior ranking and no material subordinated
liabilities.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

Completion Risk - Weaker

Simple Construction, Limited Liquidity

The assessment reflects risks from modest contractor experience, a
tight implementation schedule, and limited liquidity because of
stringent rent credits for construction delays. The developer
Applied Digital has a strong track record with the core and shell
contractor, Century Builders, but A&P, the fit-out contractor, has
limited experience with 100 MW-plus data centers, which raises
execution risks.

The guaranteed maximum price (GMP) is fully locked in for FAR01 but
not for FAR02, exposing the project to cost escalation; however,
FAR02 is smaller (50 MW), is expected to replicate FAR01's design,
and its GMP is expected by April 2026. The project budget is viewed
as reasonable and about 82% of total costs are currently known. The
LTA finds the tight schedule achievable, and permitting and
geotechnical issues are manageable.

Supply Risk - Weaker

No Electricity Supply Agreement; Escrowed Funds

The project requires 280 MW from a new substation and an upgraded
345 kV transmission line with Minnkota Power Cooperative
(BBB+/Negative) and Cass County Electric Cooperative. Applied
Digital has secured all long-lead equipment, though schedule risk
remains due to limited visibility into construction timelines. An
electric service agreement (ESA) has not been executed, but bond
proceeds are escrowed until the ESA is executed, which reduces this
risk. The expected ESA term is six years which creates renewal and
price risk. The tenant bears power price risk through pass-through
provisions.

Revenue Risk - Stronger

No Lease Renewal Risk

The project's cash flows are fully contracted under a 15-year lease
with an Oracle subsidiary, guaranteed by Oracle Corporation
(BBB/Stable), with two five-year extension options. The cash flows
during the 15-year initial lease term are sufficient to repay the
debt, eliminating renewal risk. Despite less-favorable latency in
North Dakota, the strong hyperscaler tenant and lack of lease
renewal risk support the assessment.

Operation Risk - Midrange

Stringent SLAs with Termination Rights

The lease is a modified gross plus electricity (MG + E) structure,
passing electricity costs to the tenant and reducing cost risk for
the project. Stringent performance standards for power,
temperature, humidity, and air quality entitle the tenant to
uncapped service credits, up to 100% of monthly rent, for service
interruptions. The tenant may also terminate leases for chronic
outages. These risks are mitigated by system redundancies,
including an N+1 backup generator

Infrastructure Development & Obsolescence Risk - Neutral

New Building with Minimal Maintenance

As debt can fully amortize during the initial 15-year lease,
technological obsolescence risk is limited. The newly built data
centers' mechanical and electrical components are expected to
outlast the debt maturity, minimizing capital needs. Fitch
anticipates only minor later-year capex, mainly for battery
replacement

Debt Structure - 1 - Weaker

Refinance Risk, No Additional Debt

The notes are secured by a first-priority lien on all project
assets, contracts, and cash flows, except interconnection capacity
above 50 MW for FAR-02 and related revenue. A debt service reserve
account, funded at closing, covers six months of debt service, with
additional funded interest through completion of FAR-01 phase 1.
While the project is exposed to refinancing risk in 2031, it does
not rely on lease renewals to repay debt, which reduces this risk.

The issuer and subsidiary guarantors operate as special purpose
entities with covenants restricting additional debt, and
commingling funds with the parent, reflecting project finance
protections. Joint ventures and M&A are permitted but they cannot
include debt. The restricted payments test is weak because it does
not include a DSCR test.

Peer Analysis

The closest peers are APLD ComputeCo LLC (BB-/Stable) and Cipher
Compute LLC (BB-/Stable). Like Cipher Compute, APLD ComputeCo 2
faces elevated completion risk due to early construction and tight
timelines. APLD Compute Co's rating is constrained by debt-raising
flexibility and counterparty credit risk, whereas APLD ComputeCo 2
benefits from strong counterparty and lacks such flexibility. APLD
ComputeCo and Cipher have stronger financial profiles than APLD
ComputeCo 2.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Construction delays for any phases that exceed allowable times as
indicated in the lease terms, leading to potential tenant
termination or rent credits;

- Delays in signing of the ESA or in substation construction that
delay revenue generation for the project or risk potential tenant
termination;

- Weakened liquidity during the construction phase that leaves
limited headroom to absorb operational underperformance during the
operating phase could lead to a rating downgrade;

- Degradation of the financial performance, leading to sustained
DSCR or PLCR below 1.13x.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- An upgrade up to the initial maturity of the notes is unlikely
due to the low DSCR during the initial years.

Financial Profile

Fitch's base and rating cases assess project cashflows over the
initial lease term and refinancing in year five. The base case
assumes 3% annual operating expense growth, a 5% stress to
expenses, and an 8% refinancing rate. The rating case is identical
except for a 10% stress to expenses. Fitch's rating case results in
a PLCR of 1.19x at refinancing, an average DSCR of 1.02x
(2027-2030) through note maturity, and average DSCR of 1.14x
(2027-2041) over the initial lease term, supported by a six-month
DSRA that provides cushion to absorb further cost escalations or
SLA penalties.

TRANSACTION SUMMARY

$2.15 billion in senior secured notes will be issued to fund the
project with an 80% debt-to-cost ratio, with $537 million in equity
funded at close. Fitch relied on the description of notes, not
transaction documents for the expected rating. The final ratings
are contingent upon the receipt by Fitch of final documents
conforming to information already received and reviewed as well as
the final pricing of the bonds.

SECURITY

First-priority liens over substantially all assets of the issuer
and the subsidiary guarantors.

Date of Relevant Committee

02-Mar-2026

Climate Vulnerability Signals

The results of its Climate.VS screener did not indicate an elevated
risk for APLD ComputeCo 2 LLC.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.

AQUASERV POOL: Gets Extension to Access Cash Collateral
-------------------------------------------------------
AquaServ Pool Service, Inc. received another extension from the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa
Division, to use cash collateral.

The court entered its fourth interim order authorizing the Debtor
to use cash collateral to pay court-approved expenses, including
Subchapter V trustee fees and necessary business expenses.

The Debtor may exceed individual budget line items by up to 10%,
and any additional spending must either be approved in writing by
the secured creditors -- Ace Funding Source, LLC and Credibly of
Arizona, LLC -- or qualify as an administrative expense. This
authorization to use cash collateral remains valid through March
24.

The order also requires AquaServ to fulfill all obligations of a
debtor-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code and court rules.

The secured creditors must be given access to the Debtor's business
records and premises for inspection upon reasonable notice. In
addition, creditors with a security interest in the cash collateral
will receive a post-petition replacement lien, with the same
priority and validity as their pre-petition liens.

The Debtor must also maintain insurance coverage on its property
according to the loan agreements with the secured creditors.

The order is available at https://tinyurl.com/24ajmj38 from
PacerMonitor.com.

AquaServ's secured debt consists of a $36,296.66 loan from the U.S.
Small Business Administration; short-term financing from several
merchant cash advance lenders; and a purchase-money loan secured by
one of the Debtor's vehicles. The MCA lenders are Ace Funding
Source LLC, Credibly of Arizona LLC, and IOU Financial, Inc.

The Debtor also has vehicle leases with GT Leasing and RBC Trailers
2, and does not believe these creditors have any interest in the
cash collateral.

As of the petition date, the Debtor's cash collateral consists of
accounts receivable totaling $62,000.

ARCHDIOCESE OF NEW ORLEANS: Claimants' Fee App Objections Nixed
---------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Meredith S. Grabill of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Louisiana overruled the objections of Certain
Abuse Survivors to the interim fee applications filed by counsel to
the Roman Catholic Church of The Archdiocese of New Orleans and
counsel to the former Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors.  

The Court designated the Archdiocese's bankruptcy case as "complex"
under its  Procedures for Complex Chapter 11 Cases ("Complex Case
Procedures") based on the amount of debt scheduled by the
Archdiocese, the number of parties in interest, and the presence of
publicly traded claims with those creditors being represented by an
indenture trustee. At the time of the Archdiocese's bankruptcy
filing, there were over thirty pending lawsuits  filed in Louisiana
state court between 2018 and 2020 by individuals alleging claims of
past sexual abuse by priests employed or supervised by the
Archdiocese and the complicity of the Archdiocese in that abuse.
On May 20, 2020, the Office of the United States Trustee ("UST")
constituted the Committee; ultimately, the membership of the
Committee included only individuals whose claims against the
Archdiocese were premised on allegations of sexual abuse.

On June 19, 2020, the Archdiocese obtained Court approval pursuant
to Secs. 327(a) and 328(a) of the Bankruptcy Code to retain the law
firm of Jones Walker LLP as counsel. Shortly after its
constitution, the Committee obtained Court approval pursuant to
Secs. 327(a),  328(a), and 1103 of the Bankruptcy Code to retain
the law firms of Troutman Pepper Locke LLP and Pachulski Stang
Ziehl & Jones LLP as counsel.  In addition to retention, Court
approval is also required to compensate those professionals.  

On April 4, 2024, counsel for the Debtor filed an Eleventh Interim
Application of Jones Walker LLP for Allowance of Compensation and
Reimbursement of Expenses, as Counsel to the  Debtor and the Debtor
In Possession, for the Period from November 1, 2023 Through
February 29, 2024 (the "JW 11th Interim Fee App").

On August 5, 2024, counsel for the Debtor filed a Twelfth Interim
Application of Jones Walker LLP for Allowance of Compensation and
Reimbursement of Expenses, as Counsel to the Debtor and the Debtor
in Possession, for the Period from March 1, 2024 Through June 30,
2024 (the "JW 12th Interim Fee App").

In November 2024 and March 2025, Jones Walker filed its thirteenth
and fourteenth interim fee applications (the "JW 13th & 14th
Interim Fee Apps"), to which Certain Abuse Survivors objected.

Certain Abuse Survivors objected to the fee applications.

On April 30, 2025, Certain Abuse Claimants filed a motion to
dismiss the Debtor's bankruptcy case under Sec. 1112(b) of the
Bankruptcy Code.

At a status conference in late September 2025, the Debtor and
Certain Abuse Survivors announced a settlement of the objections to
the proposed joint plan of reorganization lodged by Certain Abuse
Survivors, who subsequently withdrew their motion to dismiss and
stated on the record that they fully supported confirmation of the
proposed plan.

Going into the confirmation hearing, that left the Plan Proponents
with only one impaired, non accepting class (Class 6 Bond Claims)
and objections to the plan filed by the UST, a non-settling
insurer, and the Bond Trustee.

The Plan Proponents also resolved all objections to confirmation of
the plan but  two.  After overruling the non-settling insurer's
remaining objections, the Court (i) found that the  proposed plan
of reorganization satisfied all of the requirements of Secs. 1122,
1123, and 1129 of the  Bankruptcy Code; (ii) issued an Order on
December 8, 2025, confirming the plan (the  "Confirmation Order");
and (iii) withdrew its Order To Show Cause.

The question before the Court in this case is whether the standing
conferred by Sec. 1109(b) to Certain Abuse Survivors during the
pendency of the case extends post-confirmation or whether they
forfeited their standing by entering into a settlement with the
Archdiocese and the Additional Debtors, the terms of which are
memorialized in the Confirmed Joint Plan.     

In the end, all impaired, non-insider creditor classes voted in
favor of the plan; indeed, 491 claimants holding "Known Abuse
Claims" -- including Certain Abuse Survivors -- voted in Class 3,
with 489 or 99.59% of voting survivors accepting the terms of the
plan.

The Confirmation Order is a final and unappealable Order.

The Court finds Certain Abuse Survivors in this case do not
currently hold a pecuniary interest in the payment of attorneys'
fees to counsel for the Reorganized Debtor and the former
Committee. The Committee, representing the interests of all Known
and Unknown Abuse Claimants, with counsel  for Certain Abuse
Survivors, negotiated plan treatment afforded to those claimants
with the Debtor, Additional Debtors, and their insurers.  Based on
the amount of litigation among the parties evidenced on the docket
as well as the time spent in mediation, to say that the ultimate
settlement they reached was hard-won would be an understatement.
The parties negotiated "pot plan" treatment for abuse survivors;
that is, the Confirmed Joint Plan provides that the Debtor and
Additional Debtors would contribute a fixed, agreed-upon sum of
money into the Settlement Trust to be shared pro-rata among
unsecured abuse claimants in Classes 3 and 4, regardless of the
total amount of claims filed and allowed. Crucial to the
determination that Certain Abuse Survivors now lack a pecuniary
interest in the payment of attorneys' fees is the fact that Known
and Unknown Abuse Claimants' recovery is absolutely limited to the
Settlement Trust. So even if this Court reduces the amounts
requested in the Pending Interim Fee Apps and any final fee
applications, that reduction would never inure to the benefit of
abuse claimants.  The plain terms of the confirmed plan negotiated
by the parties make it so.

Certain Abuse Survivors also assert that the filing of a motion for
allowance of administrative expense claims under Secs. 503(b)(3)(D)
and (4) of the Bankruptcy Code (the  "Substantial Contribution
Claim") confers a pecuniary interest in the payment of professional
fees
in this case.

According to the Court, the mere filing of the Substantial
Contribution Claim does not bestow upon Certain Abuse Survivors a
pecuniary interest in the payment of other attorneys' fees.

The Court finds that, at this point, Certain Abuse Survivors lack
standing under Sec. 1109(b) to maintain their objections to the
Pending Interim Fee Apps as well as to object to any final fee
application filed in this case.

ASOCIACION HOSPITAL: Seeks to Sell Hospital Operation at Auction
----------------------------------------------------------------
Asociacion Hospital del Maestro, Inc., seeks approval from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Puerto Rico to sell
substantially all Assets at auction, free and clear of liens,
claims, interests, and encumbrances.

On August 25, 2025, the Debtor filed a voluntary petition for
relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Puerto Rico.

To maximize the value of the transaction, the Debtor is seeking to
conduct the Auction where all interested parties will have the
opportunity to bid on the Transfer of the governance authority of
the Debtor or all or any subset of the Assets.

The proposed Bidding Procedures will ensure that the Debtor's
post-petition marketing and Transfer
process is fair and conducted in an open manner.

The Debtor submits that the proposed Bidding Procedures represent
the best available option for the Debtor to maximize the value of
its estate for the benefit of all their creditors.

The Debtor submits that the foregoing Bidding Procedures are
designed to ensure that their estates receive the highest possible
value for the Transaction and should be approved.

The Debtor and its professional advisors have designed the Bidding
Procedures to promote a competitive and fair Bidding Process and,
thus, to maximize value for the Debtor's estate and stakeholders.

The Debtor is also seeking authority to offer bid protections to
all Qualified Bidders that may become Stalking Horse Bidders. The
use of a stalking horse in a public auction process is a customary
practice in chapter 11 cases, as the use of a stalking horse bid
is, in many circumstances, the best way to maximize value in an
auction process

The Debtor will also cause the Transfer Hearing Notice to be
published once in the national edition of a national circulation
newspaper and post the Transfer Hearing Notice and the Order on the
website of on the Lugo Mender Group, LLC website:
https://lugomender.com/publicdocuments/ The Transfer Hearing Notice
will include, among other things, the date, time and place of the
Auction and the Transfer Hearing and the deadline for filing any
objections to the relief requested in the Transfer Motion, once
they are set by the Court.

------------------------------------------------------------
Mitchell P. Kopin, Daniel B. Asher, and Intracoastal Capital LLC,
disclosed in a Schedule 13G filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission that as of March 5, 2026, they beneficially own
490,197 shares of common stock (with shared voting and dispositive
power held by Intracoastal Capital LLC, of which Mitchell P. Kopin
is Manager) of Avalon GloboCare Corp.'s common stock, par value
$0.0001 per share, representing 7.0% of the 7,042,348 shares
outstanding as of February 27, 2026.

The beneficial ownership excludes:

     (I) 490,197 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a
warrant held by Intracoastal ("Intracoastal Warrant 1") because
Intracoastal Warrant 1 is not exercisable until the effective date
of stockholder approval of the issuance of the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon exercise of Intracoastal Warrant 1 (and
Intracoastal Warrant 1 also contains a blocker provision under
which the holder thereof does not have the right to exercise
Intracoastal Warrant 1 to the extent (but only to the extent) that
such exercise would result in beneficial ownership by the holder
thereof, together with the holder's affiliates, and any other
persons acting as a group together with the holder or any of the
holder's affiliates, of more than 4.99% of the Common Stock) and

    (II) 490,197 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of a
second warrant held by Intracoastal ("Intracoastal Warrant 2")
because Intracoastal Warrant 2 is not exercisable until the
effective date of stockholder approval of the issuance of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Intracoastal
Warrant 2 (and Intracoastal Warrant 2 also contains a blocker
provision under which the holder thereof does not have the right to
exercise Intracoastal Warrant 2 to the extent (but only to the
extent) that such exercise would result in beneficial ownership by
the holder thereof, together with the holder's affiliates, and any
other persons acting as a group together with the holder or any of
the holder's affiliates, of more than 4.99% of the Common Stock).
Without such blocker provisions (and assuming each of Intracoastal
1 and Intracoastal Warrant 2 were currently exercisable), each of
the Reporting Persons may have been deemed to have beneficial
ownership of 1,470,591 shares of Common Stock.

AVENGER FLIGHT: Reaches Global Chapter 11 Settlement w/ Creditors
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Vince Sullilvan of Law360 Bankruptcy Authority reports that on
Wednesday, March 11, 2026, Avenger Flight Group, a Delaware-based
flight training provider, told the bankruptcy court that it had
reached a global settlement with its creditors. The agreement paves
the way for the company to sell its assets as part of its Chapter
11 proceedings.

The settlement addresses competing claims from multiple creditor
groups and provides a framework for distributing sale proceeds.
Court filings suggest that the deal was structured to maximize
recoveries while avoiding protracted litigation among stakeholders,
the report relays.

Having entered Chapter 11 due to financial stress, Avenger Flight
Group can now move forward with its asset sale and restructuring
plan. The settlement offers a clear path for the company to exit
bankruptcy while protecting the interests of creditors, the report
cites.

2026. In its petition, the Debtor reports estimated assets and
liabilities between $100 million and $500 million each.

AZURE BUILDERS: Court Extends Cash Collateral Access
----------------------------------------------------
Azure Builders, Inc. received third interim approval from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, Fort Myers
Division, to use cash collateral.

The third interim order signed by Judge Luis Rivera II authorized
the Debtor to use cash collateral to pay the amounts expressly
authorized by the court, including subchapter V trustee interim
compensation; the expenses set forth in the budget (plus an amount
not to exceed 10% for each line item); and additional amounts
subject to approval by secured creditors. This authorization will
continue until further order of the court.

As adequate protection for the Debtor's use of its cash collateral,
secured creditors will be granted a perfected post-petition lien on
their pre-bankruptcy collateral, with the same validity, priority
and extent as their pre-bankruptcy liens.

Azure Builders must maintain required insurance, provide access to
records and premises, and comply with all debtor-in-possession
obligations.

The next hearing is scheduled for March 25.

A copy of the court's order and the Debtor's budget is available at
https://shorturl.at/zHbzi from PacerMonitor.com.

Azure Builders scheduled three creditors which may have
pre-bankruptcy secured claims against cash collateral: Always.bank,
a Division of 22nd State Banking Company); BCA Capital Partners,
LLC; and Forward Financing, LLC. The Debtor believes these
creditors would assert their scheduled secured claims were based
upon agreements so that their claims would constitute security
interests.

Always.bank and BCA filed UCC-1 financing statements, using the
Debtor's former name, S & E Renovations, Inc., in the Florida
Secured Transaction Registry. In November 2025, Always.bank filed a
subsequent UCC-1 financing statement using the Debtor's current
name. Forward did not perfect its secured claim against the cash
collateral.

BEAZER HOMES: Moody's Lowers CFR & Senior Unsecured Notes to B2
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings downgraded Beazer Homes USA, Inc.'s (Beazer)
corporate family rating to B2 from B1, its probability of default
rating to B2-PD from B1-PD, and the ratings on the company's senior
unsecured notes to B2 from B1. Moody's also changed Beazer's
Speculative Grade Liquidity (SGL) Rating to SGL-3 from SGL-2. The
outlook remains stable.

The downgrade to B2 reflects Beazer's high leverage and weak
interest coverage, driven by an erosion in profitability amid a
prolonged period of subdued conditions in the US housing market.
Moody's expects some improvement in interest coverage to close to
2x EBIT/interest expense by fiscal year 2027, from approximately 1x
for the 12 months ending December 31, 2025. However, a return to
historic levels of EBIT margins and gross margins is unlikely in
the near term given intense competition from larger, better
capitalized homebuilders, continued use of sales incentives, weak
consumer confidence and expectations for largely flat US
residential new construction activity.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Beazer's B2 CFR reflects the company's weakened profitability and
limited prospects for leverage and coverage metrics to return to
historical levels in the next 12-18 months. Sustained improvements
in operating performance and volume growth will be required to
meaningfully reduce leverage.

Moody's expects leverage to remain around 48% debt/book
capitalization and interest coverage to improve to 2x EBIT/interest
expense by fiscal year-end 2027 (ending September 2027). Moody's
anticipates a continued decline in pricing power for homebuilders
in 2026 and beyond, necessitating the use of incentives to boost
sales and resulting in more modest operating margins. Moody's
projects EBIT margins of around 4-7% through fiscal 2027.

Demand for new single-family homes remains weakest among
entry-level buyers, while move-up, active-adult, and luxury
segments have shown greater resilience. Over time, the mortgage
lock-in effect - where homeowners are reluctant to sell homes
financed at very low interest rates - should ease as households
adjust to higher-for-longer rates and life events drive mobility,
helping to support demand despite ongoing affordability pressures.

However, 61% of Beazer's total lots are controlled through option
contracts, enhancing both operational and financial flexibility.
First-time home buyers is a key driver of Beazer's revenue.
However, this cohort of buyers is usually financially secure and
can afford more upscale homes, enabling the company to improve its
average selling price for each home in new communities. Beazer also
offers homes across various economic segments and regions that
provide diversified revenue sources.

The SGL-3 reflects expected modest free cash flow generation,
access to a sizeable revolving credit facility (RCF) and some
headroom under recently amended financial covenant.

Beazer's leveraged capital structure is mitigated by its access to
a $365 million senior unsecured RCF due 2028, which is governed by
a borrowing base calculation. As of December 31, 2025, revolver
availability totaled around $220 million after taking into account
about $95 million in borrowings and $50 million in letter of credit
issuances. Beazer has no material debt maturities until late 2027.

Given recently amended financial covenants, Beazer needs to
maintain liquidity, which effectively includes unrestricted cash on
hand and RCF availability, greater than last 12 months interest
expense until minimum interest coverage is greater than 1.5x (1.4x
ending December 31, 2025).  As of December 31, 2025, excess
liquidity, after interest incurred, was $260 million.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations that leverage will
remain below 60% debt/book capitalization and of modest free cash
flow generation over the next 18 months. The favorable long-term
fundamentals of the US homebuilding industry further support the
stable outlook.

The B2 rating assigned to the senior unsecured debt, which is at
the same level as the B2 CFR, results from its status as the
largest portion of debt in Beazer's capital structure. The senior
unsecured debt is comprised of the $357 million senior unsecured
notes due October 2027, which Moody's anticipates will be addressed
prior to becoming a current liability, $350 million senior
unsecured notes due October 2029 and $250 million senior unsecured
notes due March 2031. The senior unsecured notes and RCF (unrated)
are pari passu with each other.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

The ratings could be upgraded if end markets remain supportive of
long-term organic growth such that debt/book capitalization is
sustained below 50% and EBIT/interest remains above 3.5x.
Significant improvement in liquidity would also support an
upgrade.

A ratings downgrade could occur if debt/book capitalization remains
above 60% and EBIT/interest expense stays below 2x.  Negative
ratings pressure may also develop if the company experiences
deteriorating liquidity or adopts increasingly aggressive
shareholder-return initiatives.

Beazer (NYSE: BZH), headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, is a
national homebuilder, with 168 active communities in 13 states,
grouped into three regions. Its revenue for the 12 months ending
December 31, was $2.3 billion.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Homebuilding
and Property Development published in September 2025.

The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.

BOY SCOUTS: Allianz Asks 5th Circuit to Review Trust Dispute
------------------------------------------------------------
Randi Love of Bloomberg Law reports that several Allianz insurance
subsidiaries have asked the Fifth Circuit to compel a Texas federal
court to either dismiss or transfer a lawsuit brought by the Boy
Scouts of America sex abuse settlement trust. The insurers claim
the litigation should be handled in another forum rather than the
Northern District of Texas.

In a filing Tuesday, March 10, 2026, Allianz criticized a February
ruling from the Texas court that determined the district was an
appropriate venue for the dispute. The insurers warned that the
decision risks encouraging venue-shopping by parties involved in
complex insurance coverage fights tied to bankruptcy settlements.

US District Judge Karen Gren Scholer previously refused Allianz's
request to abstain from the case or relocate it to Illinois. The
insurers argued that Illinois would be a more suitable forum
because related litigation involving the Boy Scouts and multiple
insurers has been pending there for years, the report relays.

The dispute stems from insurance coverage issues connected to the
Boy Scouts' massive sexual abuse settlement trust established
during its Chapter 11 proceedings. Allianz is now asking the Fifth
Circuit to overturn the Texas court's venue decision and direct
that the case be dismissed or transferred, according to Bloomberg.

BREWSTER EQUIPMENT: Receiver Sought Amid Owners' Fight
------------------------------------------------------
Christopher M. Nazetta filed an emergency motion with the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of Illinois, seeking the
appointment of Rally Capital Services, LLC as receiver of Brewster
Equipment Leasing, Inc. (BEL) and Brewster Companies, Inc. (BCI)
and their continuing business operations.

According to the Plaintiff's Verified Complaint:

     1. Two Illinois statutes provide independent causes of action
for the Court to appoint a receiver over an entity where the
persons in control of those entities are deadlocked and the
operations of the company are suffering. The Illinois Receivership
Act -- 765 ILCS 1090/6(a)(3)(C) -- provides that a court may
appoint a receiver when "the persons in control of the person are
deadlocked in the management of the person's affairs." "Person" is
defined as an "individual, corporation, business trust, estate,
trust, partnership, limited liability company, association, joint
venture, governmental agency, public corporation, or any other
legal or commercial entity." The Receivership Act permits a court
to appoint a receiver "in an action in which a receiver may be
appointed by law or on equitable grounds."

     2. Likewise, 805 ILCS 5/12.56 provides for the "appointment of
a custodian to manage the business and affairs of the corporation
to serve for the term and under the conditions prescribed by the
Court."

     3. Plaintiff Christopher M. Nazetta and Defendant Alexander C.
Nazetta are the sole shareholders, officers and directors of BEL
and BCI. Plaintiff and Defendant are in a dispute over Plaintiff's
buyout of Defendant, which has caused a deadlock between them that
prevents BEL and BCI from functioning normally and threatens the
revenue-producing potential of BEL and BCI.

     4. The Counterclaims and Response to Plaintiff's Request for a
Hearing filed by Defendant illustrate that management of the
companies is dysfunctional and that they are in danger of loss and
further impairment. Defendant admits that he has equal control over
Nominal Defendants with Plaintiff and acknowledges that he is
unable to work effectively with Plaintiff.

While the Court considers the parties' competing claims and
allegations, it should appoint a receiver to oversee the operations
of the Nominal Defendants. With the principals of the Nominal
Defendants at odds over everything professionally and personally, a
receiver is the only way to ensure that the Nominal Defendants
function appropriately and that their revenue-producing potential
is not diminished.

BROCK HOLDINGS: $165MM Loan Add-on No Impact on Moody's 'B3' CFR
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings commented that Brock Holdings III, LLC's ("Brock")
ratings and stable outlook are not affected by the company's
proposed $165 million add-on to the company's senior secured term
loan due May 2030. The company's current ratings include a B3
Corporate Family Rating and a B3 rating on its senior secured

used to fund bolt-on acquisition and to term out borrowings under
company's bank revolver facility.  The transaction will increase
gross leverage by 0.6x to around 5.4x, before accounting for
incremental EBITDA.  Proforma for the add on, the cash balance is
expected to reach around $9 million and company's $165 million ABL
will be more than 90% available. The anticipated small acquisition
allows the company to diversify its revenues in a new geography and
segment.  

Brock's B3 CFR reflects its current size, leading market position
within a fragmented industry, and consistent operating performance.
However, the company's credit profile is constrained by its modest
debt coverage capacity, stemming from low cash generation that is
due to narrow margins and high competition, as well as significant
financial charges resulting from a large debt load and
vulnerability to interest rate changes.

Brock's First Lien Term Loan is rated B3, the same as the CFR
taking into account limited utilization of the ABL facility. The
Term Loan is secured by first priority liens on substantially all
assets other than ABL collateral and by second priority liens on
all ABL collateral. The ABL facility is secured by a first lien on
substantially all current assets and a second lien on substantially
all other assets. Further increases in the size of the ABL or
heavier than expected utilization could put pressure on the B3
rating of the Term Loan.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations that Brock will
sustain its profitability, generate positive free cash flow and,
maintain adequate liquidity.  

Headquartered in Houston, TX, Brock is a leading provider of
scaffolding, mechanical, insulation, painting & coatings and other
industrial services. Its customer base is concentrated on the
refining and chemical industries in North America. The company is
majority owned by funds managed by American Industrial Partners.


C7 HOSPITALITY: Seeks Chapter 7 Bankruptcy in Massachusetts
-----------------------------------------------------------
On March 5, 2026, C7 Hospitality Group, LLC filed for Chapter 7
protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Massachusetts. According to court filings, the debtor reports
between $100,001 and $1,000,000 in debt owed to 1–49 creditors.

CANO ELECTRIC: Gets Final OK to Use Cash Collateral
---------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort
Worth Division, entered a final order authorizing Cano Electric
Inc. to use cash collateral.

Under the final order, the Debtor is authorized to collect all
revenue due and to apply it toward operating expenses in accordance
with its budget. The Debtor may pay up to 110% of each budgeted
expense without further court approval.

All banks and payors, including Greystar Real Estate Partners, LLC
and its affiliates, are instructed to remit payments directly to
the Debtor, and no party making such payments will be liable to
third parties for compliance with the interim order.

As adequate protection, creditors with pre-petition security
interests in cash collateral will be granted replacement liens on
post-petition cash collateral and newly acquired property. These
liens maintain the same validity and priority as the creditors held
on the petition date and do not attach to Chapter 5 avoidance
actions.

Secured creditors are also entitled to replacement liens on
post-petition accounts receivable, contract rights, and deposit
accounts.

To resolve the objection filed by Olympus Business Capital, the
Debtor is required to make monthly payments of $1,000 to the
creditor as protection. The Debtor's obligation to make adequate
protection payments will terminate upon confirmation of a
reorganization plan, dismissal of the Debtor's Chapter 11 case or
conversion of the case to a Chapter 7 proceeding.

The order includes a carveout of funds to cover fees for the Clerk
of Court, U.S. Trustee, Subchapter V Trustee, trustee (if any), and
the Debtors counsel, The Lane Law Firm, PLLC.

The final order is available at https://is.gd/12iiIS from

CARPENTER FAMILY: Court OKs Farm Equipment Sale at Auction

The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Indiana,
Indianapolis Division, has permitted Carpenter Family Farms, LLC,
and its affiliates, Benjamin Carpenter and and B&L Land, LLC, to
sell Property, free and clear of liens, claims, interests, and
encumbrances.

The Debtors own equipment used in their farming operations. The

The Property is to be sold "as-is" with no express or implied
warranty.

The Property is to be sold free and clear of all liens, claims,

sell the Property from the date of the order through the dates of a
proposed auction on or about April 1, 2026.

CELSIUS NETWORK: Crocker Loses Bid for Voluntary Mediation
----------------------------------------------------------
Chief Judge Martin Glenn of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York denied the two motions filed by Leah
Rachel Crocker in the adversary proceeding captioned as MOHSIN Y.
MEGHJI, Litigation Administrator as Representative for CELSIUS
NETWORK LLC, et al., the Post-Effective Date Debtors, Plaintiff, v.
LEAH RACHEL CROCKER, Defendant, Adv. Proc. No. 24-02130 (Bankr.
S.D.N.Y.).

The first is the Motion to Strike Notice of Selection of Mediator
and Enforce Voluntary Mediation Agreement requesting that the Court
permit Crocker:

   (i) to engage in voluntary mediation and cease all mandatory
mediation efforts by the Litigation Administrator;

  (ii) permit Crocker to strike the selection of mediator filed by
the Litigation Administrator;

  (iii) require the Litigation Administrator to pay Crocker's
portion of mandatory mediation fees.

The second is the Motion to Stay Mediation (the "Stay Motion")
seeking to stay mediation until this court rules on the Strike
Motion.

The Litigation Administrator filed this adversary proceeding on
July 3, 2024, seeking to avoid transfers pursuant to sections 547
and 550 of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Court entered the Procedures Order on November 7, 2024. It
issued the Memorandum Opinion and Order on Phase One Issues (the
"Phase One Opinion"). Pursuant to the Procedures Order, the Phase
One Opinion triggered the mandatory mediation start date of October
2, 2025, and the Hardship Application deadline of twenty-one days
before, or September 11, 2025.

On October 31, 2025, the Litigation Administrator filed the Notice
of Selection of Mediator requesting the Court's permission to
select Christopher Battaglia as mediator during mandatory mediation
per the provisions of the Procedures Order.

Strike Motion

On November 19, 2025, Crocker filed the Strike Motion, asserting
that she is entitled to voluntary mediation and has already
participated in voluntary mediation, urging the Court to grant
selection of a new mediator, and requesting the Litigation
Administrator pay Crocker's share of any mandatory mediation fees.


On December 17, 2025, the Litigation Administrator filed the Notice
of Scheduling of Mediation scheduling the mandatory mediation for
January 13, 2026. The Litigation Administrator replied to the
Strike Motion on December 22, 2025, claiming that Crocker's
pleadings violate the requirements of the Procedures Order.

The Court says Crocker has provided no evidence of her alleged
participation and acknowledged in the Strike Motion that there is
no record of her participating in voluntary mediation. Instead,
Crocker requested to participate in a group mediation held on
October 30, 2025. Therefore, the Court concludes Crocker has failed
to demonstrate her alleged prior participation in voluntary
mediation.

Crocker baselessly contends that:

   (i) the Litigation Administrator is "falsely" displaying her
consent to selection of mediator and,

(ii) the Litigation Administrator has "unilaterally" and,
therefore, improperly selected a mediator for voluntary mediation.


This claim fails as well. According to the Court, the Litigation
Administrator's selection of Battaglia as mediator complies with
the requirements laid out by the Procedures Order.

Stay Motion

Crocker argues that mediation should not be scheduled yet because
the Court has not determined whether mandatory mediation is
required or whether Battaglia is the mediator.

According to the Court, the Litigation Administrator correctly
notes that Crocker's request to stay mediation is moot. The
Litigation Administrator is willing to grant Crocker additional
time to select a mediator, engage in individual mediation, and to
schedule Crocker's mediation for later in the first quarter of
2026. Therefore, it is unnecessary for the Court to grant the Stay
Motion because the Litigation Administrator is already willing to
delay the mediation.

2026, is available at http://urlcurt.com/u?l=Z2f7PAfrom

                    About Celsius Network

Celsius Network LLC -- http://www.celsius.network/-- is a
financial services company that generates revenue through
cryptocurrency trading, lending, and borrowing, as well as by
engaging in proprietary trading.

Celsius helps over a million customers worldwide to find the path
towards financial independence through a compounding yield service
and instant low-cost loans accessible via a web and mobile app.
Celsius has a blockchain-based fee-free platform where membership
provides access to curated financial services that are not
available through traditional financial institutions.

The Celsius Wallet claims to be one of the only online crypto
wallets designed to allow members to use coins as collateral to get
a loan in dollars, and in the future, to lend their crypto to earn
interest on deposited coins (when they're lent out).

Crypto lenders such as Celsius boomed during the COVID-19 pandemic,
drawing depositors with high interest rates and easy access to
loans rarely offered by traditional banks. But the lenders'
business model came under scrutiny after a sharp sell-off in the
crypto market spurred by the collapse of major tokens terraUSD and
luna in May 2022.

New Jersey-based Celsius froze withdrawals in June 2022, citing
"extreme" market conditions, cutting off access to savings for
individual investors and sending tremors through the crypto
market.

The list of major crypto firms that have filed for bankruptcy
protection in 2022 now includes Celsius Network, Three Arrows
Capital and Voyager Digital.

Celsius Network, LLC and its subsidiaries sought protection under
Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Lead Case
No. 22-10964) on July 14, 2022. In the petition filed by CEO Alex
Mashinsky, the Debtors estimated assets and liabilities between $1
billion and $10 billion.

The Debtors tapped Kirkland & Ellis, LLP and Kirkland & Ellis
International, LLP as bankruptcy counsels; Fischer (FBC & Co.) as
special counsel; Centerview Partners, LLC as investment banker; and
Alvarez & Marsal North America, LLC as financial advisor. Stretto
is the claims agent and administrative advisor.

On July 27, 2022, the U.S. Trustee appointed an official committee
of unsecured creditors. The committee tapped White & Case, LLP as
its bankruptcy counsel; Elementus Inc. as its blockchain forensics
advisor; M3 Advisory Partners, LP as its financial advisor; and
Perella Weinberg Partners, LP as its investment banker.

Shoba Pillay, Esq., is the examiner appointed in the Debtors'
Chapter 11 cases. Jenner & Block, LLP and Huron Consulting
Services, LLC, serve as the examiner's legal counsel and financial
advisor, respectively.

CHICAGO SOUTH LOOP: Louis Dodd Wins Bid to Dimiss Bankruptcy Case
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Deborah L. Thorne of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Illinois granted the motion of Louis Dodd to
dismiss the bankruptcy case of Chicago South Loop Hotel Owner, LLC
under section 1112(b) of the Code.

This is the second chapter 11 case filed by the Debtor, Chicago
South Loop Hotel Owner, LLC, in the last several years. The prior
case, case number 23-02595, was dismissed in May 2023 because the
petition was filed without proper authority as Todd Hansen did not
have authority to file the chapter 11 petition on behalf of the
Debtor. The new case was initiated by an involuntary petition filed
by Tiffany Webb, a creditor. The Debtor responded by filing a new
voluntary chapter 11 petition, again, signed by Todd Hansen who is
identified as the "authorized representative" of the Debtor.
Chicago South Loop Hotel, LLC (Parent) is listed as the 100% member
of the Debtor. Louis Dodd is one of the Parent's four original
members.

In the months since the second filing, the Debtor has taken
advantage of the automatic stay, has filed monthly operating
reports much later than required, if at all, and has made adequate
protection payments to its lender, Hospitality Structured Funding
IV, LLC (Hospitality). Those payments are made from revenue (the
rent) it receives from Chicago South Loop Hotel. It is not clear
what a proposed plan would look like, and no plan has been proposed
in the months since the voluntary petition was filed.

After examining the claims filed, it appears there are several
alleged secured and unsecured creditors, although it is not clear
whether these are claims against the operating hotel or the Debtor.
To date the only significant activity in six months has been the
monthly payment of adequate protection to Hospitality. No plan has
been filed, and the Debtor's receipts appear to be approximately
$60,000 per month with a payment of $41,758 as adequate protection
to Hospitality nearly every month.

No other activity moving the case forward has occurred. The case is
essentially a single asset real estate case under 11 U.S.C. Sec.
101(51B)8 where the Debtor has been enjoying the haven of the
automatic stay yet not taking on the responsibility of proposing or
negotiating a confirmable plan.

The Court finds cause exists to dismiss for two reasons:

   (1) The disputes at the Parent level are paralyzing the Debtor's
ability to move forward with this case; and

   (2) No reasonable likelihood of the proposal and confirmation of
a plan exists.

The managing member of the Debtor is still disputing who the
appropriate managing members are, and it does not appear that this
dispute will be resolved to allow the formulation of a plan. The
Parent is not a debtor in this case, and the dispute between the
members of the Parent is a state law issue that can be determined
in the state court. Furthermore, the Court says without movement
toward a confirmable plan, protection of the automatic stay within
the comfort of chapter 11 is not warranted and demonstrates bad
faith.

The Court finds while Mr. Dodd asks in the alternative for the
appointment of a chapter 11 trustee, and Hospitality favors
appointing a trustee, both have failed to demonstrate that this is
in the best interest of creditors of this estate. According to the
Court, while there may be benefits to appointing a trustee, it may
come at the cost of great harm to the estate as management is
completely ousted and an already beleaguered estate must pay a
trustee's extraordinary expenses.

The Debtor has not met its burden under section 1112(b)(2)(A) or
(B), and the Court can find no reason to burden a chapter 11
trustee with the assets of this estate. Dismissal and a return to
state court is merited under section 1112(b) as cause has been
demonstrated.

CHILDREN'S HEALTH: Court Directs U.S. Trustee to Appoint PCO
------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Selene Maddox of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
District of Mississippi directed the U.S. Trustee to appoint a
patient care ombudsman for Children's Health Center of Columbus,
Inc.

The bankruptcy judge found that the provisions of Section 333(a)(1)
of the Bankruptcy Code for appointment of a PCO apply to Children's
Health Center after having filed its bankruptcy petition,
indicating that it operates a health care business.

CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL LA: Moody's Lowers Revenue Bond Rating to Ba2
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has downgraded Children's Hospital Los Angeles'
(CHLA) (CA) revenue bond rating to Ba2 from Ba1. The rating was
previously under review for possible downgrade.  The outlook is
negative. CHLA has approximately $600 million of debt outstanding.

The downgrade reflects the further decline in days cash on hand
despite several successful initiatives to supplement liquidity,
with days cash dropping to approximately 17 days.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba2 rating reflects CHLA'S challenged operations, and very weak
liquidity, but also its unique clinical and institutional
importance. A key driver of the weak performance is CHLA's heavy
reliance on state funding due to its significant Medicaid exposure,
which reflects its high social risk and is a primary driver of this
rating action. With support from external consultants, CHLA has
identified opportunities for performance improvement in fiscal
2026, including labor-related savings and revenue cycle
enhancements. Q2 2026 results showed improvement over Q1, with year
to date operating cashflow (OCF) margin improving to a still very
weak -1.1%.  Management believes it is on track to achieving a 2%
OCF margin for the year.

Days cash is particularly stressed dropping to approximately 17
days as of December 31. 2025, despite management successfully
selling $33 million of provider fee receivables, and receiving a
$26 million advance. The delay in CMS' approval of round 9 of
California's provider fee program is a major contributing factor.
A possible $200 million new money financing to close before the end
of March could improve days cash to above 60 days.

The rating is supported by several important strengths, including
CHLA's vital role as a premier teaching and research institution
and a leading provider of high-acuity pediatric services, ranking
it among the top children's hospitals in the country. CHLA enjoys
strong local market share, draws patients from all 50 states, and
benefits from very significant fundraising.  Further, unrestricted
cash and investments is supplemented by nearly $500 million of
restricted investments, which supports operations, capital, and
research.

RATING OUTLOOK

The negative outlook reflects the risk of rapid credit
deterioration if liquidity strategies are not achieved over the
next two months.  The negative outlook further reflects the longer
term risk that margins may fail to continue to improve, additional
funding may not be available as expected, or other pressures could
prevent liquidity from improving.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Material growth in liquidity

-- Sustained and material improvement in financial performance

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Inability to stabilize days cash on hand at around 30 days at a
minimum

-- Failure to stem operating cash flow losses

PROFILE

CHLA is a nationally recognized pediatric academic medical center,
providing high acuity care across a range of specialties,
conducting significant research, and operating numerous residency
and training programs. CHLA is affiliated with the Keck School of
Medicine of the University of Southern California.

METHODOLOGY

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Not-for-profit
Healthcare published in October 2024.


CITY OF CHESTER: CWA Can Appeal Discovery Orders in Adversary Case
------------------------------------------------------------------
In the appeals styled CHESTER WATER AUTHORITY, Appellant, v. CITY
OF CHESTER, PENNSYLVANIA, Appellee, Case Nos. 25-1115-MRP and
25-2136-MRP (E.D. Pa.), the U.S. District Court for the Eastern
District of Pennsylvania will grant leave to appeal in each civil
action with respect to discovery orders.

These two related interlocutory appeals arise from the City of
Chester's pending Chapter 9 bankruptcy and its ongoing dispute with
the Chester Water Authority ("CWA") concerning the
City's asserted authority, under Pennsylvania's Municipality
Authorities Act ("MAA"), to reclaim or otherwise control assets
associated with CWA. The appeals challenge two interlocutory orders
entered by the Bankruptcy Court in 2025 addressing compelled
discovery and the authorized use of materials obtained through that
discovery in connection with the City's restructuring efforts.

In Civil Action No. 25-1115, the Chester Water Authority ("CWA")
seeks leave to appeal an order compelling examination and
production under Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 2004 (the
"Rule 2004 Examination Order"). In Civil Action No. 25-2136, CWA
seeks leave to appeal a separate order authorizing disclosure and
third-party use of materials obtained through that Rule 2004
process (the "Disclosure Order"). In both cases, CWA also requests
a stay pending appeal.

CWA contends that the challenged orders present controlling legal
questions concerning the scope of the Bankruptcy Court's authority
in a Chapter 9 case, including the application of Chapter 9's
federalism constraints and whether the City possesses a sufficient
state-law "property" interest to justify the compelled discovery
and subsequent authorization of its dissemination. The City and
other appellees oppose leave and oppose a stay, characterizing the
orders as routine exercises of discovery management discretion and
warning that interlocutory review will delay the Chapter 9
proceedings.

The Court will grant leave to appeal in both matters and will grant
a stay pending appeal as to enforcement of the challenged relief,
subject to an expedited merits-briefing schedule.  With respect to
Civil Action No. 25-2136, the risk of irreparable harm is
pronounced because dissemination of Rule 2004 materials to third
parties cannot be effectively undone once it occurs. With respect
to Civil Action No. 25-1115, although the asserted harm flows
primarily from compelled examination and production rather than an
immediate disclosure event, the Court concludes that a limited stay
is warranted to preserve meaningful appellate review and maintain
the status quo while the controlling legal issues are resolved on
an expedited basis.

Although interlocutory review is disfavored, these appeals present
disputed and potentially controlling legal questions at the
intersection of Chapter 9, federalism, and state-law governance of
public assets. Applying the standards governing stays pending
appeal, the Court further concludes that preserving the status quo
pending expedited review is warranted, particularly because the
consequences of compelled examination and third-party dissemination
may be difficult to unwind if the appeals ultimately succeed.

Accordingly, the Court will enter orders in each civil action:

   (1) granting leave to appeal;

   (2) staying enforcement of the Bankruptcy Court's February 13,
2025 and April 11, 2025 orders to the extent they require CWA to
submit to examination, produce documents, or permit third-party
disclosure of materials produced pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2004;


   (3) requiring no bond as a condition of the stay (or, in the
alternative, reserving bond-related issues for prompt motion
practice); and

   (4) setting an expedited merits briefing schedule under Federal
Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 8018(a).

The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa

COW CREEK: Plan Exclusivity Period Extended to May 6
----------------------------------------------------
Judge Jason D. Woodard of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Mississippi extended Cow Creek Towing &
Recovery LLC's exclusive periods to file a plan of reorganization
and disclosure statement and obtain acceptance thereof to May 6 and
July 5, 2026, respectively.

In a court filing, the Debtor explains that it has worked
diligently to work with creditors and has negotiated numerous
adequate protection agreements. There are at least four pending
Motions to Lift Stay. Debtor has been working to recover equipment
and to abandon collateral that is no longer necessary.

The Debtor claims that it is seeking to assume certain non
residential real property leases. The recent ice storm severely
impacted the Debtors operation and its accountant and several of
its banks were unable to operate for several days.

The Debtor asserts that given this extension, the company will be
able to file a Disclosure Statement and Plan that will be confirmed
within a reasonable time. Therefore, the Debtor seeks an extension
up to and including May 6, 2026 of exclusive time in which to file
their proposed Plan and Disclosure Statement and a concomitant
extension of sixty days within which to obtain Plan Confirmation.

CQENS TECHNOLOGIES: Shareholder Letter Outlines Growth Strategy
---------------------------------------------------------------
CQENS Technologies Inc. distributed a letter to its shareholders of
record providing a review of the company's recent developments and
overview and update on the Company's plan of operations. In the
letter Alexander Chong, Chairman and Chief Executive Office of the
Company said:

"To Our Shareholders, the past eight months have seen CQENS make
significant progress toward our goal of expanding our valuable,
worldwide Intellectual Property portfolio, securing US FDA
authorization to launch a modified risk tobacco product in the US,
and making significant progress with respect to listing our shares
for trading in the public market."

"In terms of our Intellectual Property, during the recent period,
we have added to our patent portfolio in the US and in countries in
Asia and throughout the European Union. This is in keeping with our
strategy of focusing our IP efforts on building a broad and deep
"moat" to safeguard the design and the details of our proprietary,
patented, and patent pending Heated Tobacco Product,

"On the US regulatory front, we met with the FDA late in 2025. It
is the responsibility of the FDA to thoroughly review our
Pre-market Tobacco Authorization, and to make the determination as
to whether we secure the necessary authorization to launch our HTP
in the US. In addition, it is important to note that the PMTA is
the "gold standard" for international authorization and approval.

"Our PMTA submission also requires significant detail as to where
and how we will manufacture the key components of our HTP. We now
expect to manufacture our devices in Hong Kong and our US tobacco
consumables in the US. To support these initiatives, we have
established a product realization center in Shenzhen, China, for
the device, and we will be occupying a new facility in North
Carolina to manufacture the tobacco consumables.

"Our next meeting with the FDA is scheduled to take place this
month, and our team is well into its preparations for this meeting.
Regular sessions for interaction and feedback from our regulators
are essential as we prepare our PMTA for submission and we are
pleased that the current FDA leadership and staff concur.

"To achieve certain critical goals, in late 2025 we engaged
Jefferies, an international investment banker with both broad and
recent experience in the tobacco industry. They have been engaged
to assist us in identifying and undertaking certain corporate
growth strategies, including those that would lead to the listing
of our Common Stock for trading. However, there are no assurances
that Jefferies will identify any suitable strategies or that we
will complete such strategies.

"To further support our efforts to secure FDA authorization, list
our shares, and launch a product in the US, we have also made three
important additions to our senior management team. These three
executives were recently senior executives at Imperial Brands PLC,
one of the world's largest tobacco companies. This experienced team
of executives have joined the Company for future considerations yet
to be determined.

"The team is comprised of Titus Wouda Kuipers, who is serving as
our Chief Commercial Officer, Markus Bonke, serving as our Chief
Operating Officer, and Ged Shudall, serving as our Chief Technology
Officer. Titus has held senior commercial leadership roles,
including responsibilities relating to next-generation tobacco
product categories. His experience includes global commercial
strategy, market entry planning, and the development and scaling of
reduced-risk product portfolios across multiple international
markets. Markus has delivered large-scale business transformations,
leading people, and global operational work streams in major change
programs, including mergers and acquisition integration, market
entries, and the rollouts of new business models; and Ged is an
engineer with more than three decades of experience in
tobacco-related product development and manufacturing systems. He
held senior technical and engineering leadership roles involving
the design, development, and implementation of manufacturing
processes and specialized machinery for both combustible and
next-generation tobacco products.

"As you can see, we believe 2026 will be an exciting and momentous
year for CQENS. I look forward to providing you with additional
updates as the year progresses and remind you to review our reports
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Thank you for
your confidence and your support during these important times for
CQENS."

CROSSROADS CHARTER: S&P Affirms 'B-' Rating on 2007/12 Bond Ratings
-------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B-' long-term rating on Crossroads
Charter Academy, Mich.'s series 2007 and 2012 bonds.

The outlook is negative.

S&P said, "We view the social capital risk as elevated because of
demographic factors on the school's enrollment trends. We believe
Crossroads is affected by years of Mecosta County's declining
school-aged population causing an increasingly competitive
landscape for students in the academy's market. We believe this
credit weakness has resulted in continued enrollment challenges
that have begun to materially affect financial operations."

In addition, the school has a history of frequent turnover among
its management team, although the current superintendent is in his
second fiscal year with the school; he is the fourth leader since
2020. S&P said, "We believe this turnover lends to elevated risk
associated with governance structure, risk management, culture, and
oversight, which worsens enrollment pressures and impairs finances.
In our view, these risks are somewhat offset by the steady support
provided by the school's contracted relationship with CS Partners,
a full-service management company. Despite the elevated social and
governance risks, we view the school's environmental factors as
neutral in our credit rating analysis."

S&P said, "The negative outlook reflects our view that there is at
least a one-in-three chance that Crossroads could continue to
experience enrollment declines further pressuring operations and
liquidity. In our view, the school's operating flexibility is
extremely limited in the near term given its small enrollment and
limited demand flexibility, which cannot withstand any further
deterioration.

"We could lower the rating over the one-year outlook period if
enrollment continues to weaken to the point that state aid is
insufficient to cover operations and make debt service payments. In
addition, we would negatively view a perceived rise in risk
associated with enterprise factors, such as continued management
turnover or difficulty with the upcoming charter renewal, although
these issues are unlikely in the outlook horizon.

"We could revise the outlook to stable if management meets and
sustains its budgeted enrollment goals such that it maintains
operations at least at a breakeven, while improving its cash
position."

CSC HOLDINGS: Apollo Debt Marks $73MM 1L Loan at 16% Off
--------------------------------------------------------

CUMULUS MEDIA: Moody's Cuts CFR to 'Ca', Outlook Negative
---------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings downgraded Cumulus Media New Holdings Inc.'s
(Cumulus) Probability of Default Rating to D-PD from Caa2-PD.
Concurrently, Moody's downgraded Cumulus' Corporate Family Rating
to Ca from Caa3, its backed senior secured first lien notes and
senior secured first lien term loan B ratings to Ca from Caa3, and
its senior unsecured debt ratings to C from Ca. The Speculative
Grade Liquidity Rating (SGL) was downgraded to SGL-4 from SGL-3.
The outlook remains negative.

These actions follow the announcement that Cumulus has entered into
a restructuring support agreement (RSA) with first lien lenders and
filed voluntary petitions for prepackaged Chapter 11 cases in the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas
on March 04, 2026. The company expects to emerge from this process
under the majority ownership of a group of existing lenders.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing has resulted in the downgrade of
Cumulus' PDR to D-PD, reflecting a default on its debt obligations.
Under the proposed restructuring, Cumulus intends to convert a
majority of its outstanding debt into equity of the reorganized
company. While the company has the ability to pursue debtor in
possession (DIP) financing commitments, management currently
expects to support operations during the bankruptcy process through
continued use of its amended asset based lending (ABL) facility,
which matures in 2030.

The Ca rating on the senior secured debt, and C rating on the
senior unsecured debt reflect Moody's views of expected recovery.

Governance considerations, as reflected in the company's Credit
Impact score of CIS-5 and governance issuer profile score (IPS) of
G-5, were a key driver of the rating action. The company has a
history of operating with high leverage, which ultimately resulted
in a distressed exchange and a subsequent bankruptcy filing.

The negative outlook reflects Moody's views that Cumulus' operating
performance will remain constrained by the ongoing secular
challenges facing the radio industry.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Media published
in September 2025.

Cumulus' Ca rating is two notches below the Caa2
scorecard-indicated outcome. The two notch difference reflects the
Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing and Moody's views of the expected
recovery.

Cumulus Media New Holdings Inc., headquartered in Atlanta, GA, is
the third largest radio broadcaster in the US with 395 stations in
84 markets, a nationwide network serving more than 7,800 broadcast
affiliates, and numerous digital channels. In addition, Cumulus has
several digital businesses (including podcasting, streaming, and
marketing services), and live events. Cumulus emerged from Chapter
11 bankruptcy protection in June 2018. The company reported $772
million in net revenue for the last twelve months ending September
2025.


CYPRESS COVE: Fitch Alters Outlook on 'BB+' IDR to Stable

Inc.'s Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at 'BB+' and the rating on
various series of revenue bonds issued by the Lee County Industrial
Development Authority (FL) bond issued on behalf of Cypress Cove at
'BB+'.

The Rating Outlook has been revised to Stable from Positive.

   Entity/Debt                    Rating          Prior
   -----------                    ------          -----
Cypress Cove at
Health Park (FL)            LT IDR BB+ Affirmed   BB+

   Cypress Cove at
   Health Park (FL)
   /General Revenues/1 LT   LT     BB+ Affirmed   BB+

The 'BB+' rating reflects Cypress Cove's elevated leverage position
and thin operating cost flexibility, balanced by decent demand and
robust net entrance fee receipts following stabilization of the
Oaks, the community's 48-unit independent living (IL) villa and
hybrid home expansion project. These factors support strong debt
service coverage for the rating level. Cypress Cove has paid down
the $24 million in short-term debt, which supported the project
after successful fill in 2024.

The Outlook revision to Stable reflects the potential for higher
capital spending regarding a campus strengthening and
storm-resiliency project. Cypress Cove is in the research and
design phase of the project.

SECURITY

The 2022 bonds are secured by a pledge of gross revenues, a
leasehold mortgage on the land on which the community is located,
and a debt service reserve fund (DSRF).

KEY RATING DRIVERS

Revenue Defensibility - 'bbb'

Single Site LPC with Good Market Position

The 'Midrange' revenue defensibility reflects Cypress Cove's market
position as a single-site life plan community (LPC) operating in a
relatively competitive service area, with competition from full
continuum of care facilities and providers that offer select
continuum of care services, such as standalone assisted living (AL)
facilities.

Offsetting the competitive service area are Cypress Cove's good
demand profile, steady flow of Medicare rehabilitation referrals
provided by Lee Memorial Health System (LMHS), and a
demographically solid primary market area (PMA) with good
population growth. Entrance fees remain affordable, although Fitch
is monitoring home price dynamics and potential variability in the
local housing market. Independent-living (IL) occupancy is
consistent with the 'Midrange' revenue defensibility assessment,
with the five-year average IL occupancy at 89%. Overall, pricing
and rates are in line with area competitors.

Cypress Cove's size and scale supports the 'Midrange' revenue
defensibility assessment given its relationship with Lee Healthcare
Resources (LHR), which provides the scale similar to a multi-state
LPC.

Operating Risk - 'bbb'

Moderating Debt Burden; Thin Operating Cost Flexibility

The 'Midrange' operating risk assessment reflects solid capital
related metrics as completion of the Oaks project bolsters the top
line. This is evidenced by maximum annual debt service (MADS)
representing 11.9% of revenues and debt-to-net available slightly
above 8x in fiscal 2025. Fiscal 2025 debt service totals $7.9
million, exceeding MADS of $7.3 million Fitch used since it
includes $1.2 million of insurance notes payable, which are
excluded from MADS.

Although improved, cost management remains weaker as operating
ratios are well above 105% through the five-year historical period
(average of 118%) and fiscal 2025 (115%). Management reports that
contract labor was eliminated by FYE 2025. The weaker operating
ratios historically have been offset by Cypress Cove's net
operating margin, adjusted (NOMA), which averaged about 25.2% over
the last five fiscal years and was strong at 29% in fiscal 2025.

Fitch expects capex to moderate below depreciation in the near term
given Cypress Cove's minimal capital needs, and capex that has
averaged 332% of depreciation over the last five fiscal years.
Average age of plant is healthy at 6.8 years in fiscal 2025.

Financial Profile - 'bb'

Steady Cash Accumulation Through a Moderate Stress Scenario

Given Cypress Cove's 'Midrange" revenue defensibility and operating
risk assessments, and Fitch's forward-looking scenario analysis,
Fitch expects key leverage metrics to remain consistent with the
'bb' financial profile. Debt service coverage is strong for the
rating level, and days cash on hand (DCOH) remains above 200 days
throughout the stress, which is neutral to the assessment.

At FYE 2025, Cypress Cove had approximately $43.4 million of
unrestricted cash and investments, equal to 299 DCOH, as calculated
by Fitch. Cash-to-adjusted debt (including the debt service reserve
fund) was 26.6% as of the same period. Total long-term debt of
approximately $193.3 includes about $52.2 million for Cypress
Cove's land lease with its parent Lee Healthcare Resources (LHR).
The fiscal 2024 operating long-term lease obligation has been
restated to $51.7 million from $41.7 million following management's
discovery of certain accounting errors.

Fitch views the ground lease as credit neutral given the close
relationship between Cypress Cove and LHR, including overlapping
governance, subordination of the ground lease to MTI debt, and
deferring of lease payments as necessary should Cypress Cove
experience operating difficulties.

Asymmetric Additional Risk Considerations

No asymmetric additional risk considerations are relevant to the
rating.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Weakening in the financial profile such that cash-to-adjusted
debt falls to below 20% and is not expected to improve.

- Weaker than expected debt service coverage that falls below 1.5x,
through post-project stabilization.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- Improved financial profile such that cash-to-adjusted to debt
approaches 60% and MADS coverage is consistently above 2x.

- Improved operating metrics such that the operating ratio sustains
closer to 100%.

PROFILE

Cypress Cove is a type-A LPC located in Fort Myers, FL. The
community consists of 422 IL units, 44 AL unit (ALU) apartments, 44
memory care apartments, and 64 skilled nursing beds. Cypress Cove
offers fully-amortizing and 75% refundable entrance fee plans, as
well a Type 'B' and Type 'C' contracts. A majority of residents
select the Type 'A' fully-amortizing plan. Additionally, Cypress
Cove does not take Medicaid in its skilled nursing unit. In fiscal
2025, Cypress Cove had total operating revenues of $58.9 million.

Opened in 1999, Cypress Cove is situated on a 48-acre parcel of
land that is part of 402-acre master development called HealthPark
Florida, which also features the HealthPark Medical Center (a
368-bed acute care hospital), that is part of Lee Health (LH), a
private nonprofit health system that is located in Lee County, FL.
Cypress Cove is not part of LH, but the two organizations mutually
benefit from a close working relationship.

In addition to the sources of information identified in Fitch's
applicable criteria specified below, this action was informed by
information from DIVER by Solve.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.


CYPRIUM CORP: Fitch Gives 'BB+' LongTerm IDR, Outlook Stable
------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has published the Long-Term (LT) Issuer Default
Ratings (IDRs) of Cyprium Corporation (Cyprium US) and Cyprium
Holdings Luxembourg S.a.r.l. (Cyprium Luxembourg), both at 'BB+'.
The Rating Outlooks are Stable. Cyprium US and Cyprium Luxembourg
are subsidiaries of Versigent Limited (BB+/Stable), the Electrical
Distribution Systems (EDS) business that is expected to be spun off
from Aptiv PLC (Aptiv) on April 1, 2026.

Fitch has also published the ratings for the proposed senior
unsecured notes to be co-issued by Cyprium US and Cyprium
Luxembourg at 'BB+' with a Recovery Rating of 'RR4'.

The proposed notes are expected to be issued in two tranches
totaling $1.5 billion. Versigent expects to use net proceeds from
the offering to partially fund a dividend to Aptiv at the time of
the spin off. Versigent expects to use any remaining proceeds for
general corporate purposes.

Key Rating Drivers

Moderate Size with Strong Share: Following its spin-off from Aptiv,
Versigent will be a moderately sized, tier-1 auto supplier, with
forecasted standalone revenue in the $9.0 billion-$10.0 billion
range. Despite its moderate size, it is a top-three supplier of
electrical architecture solutions in its key end-markets. Fitch
expects Versigent to have opportunities to continue to grow into
automotive adjacent end-markets, such as commercial vehicles,
off-highway machinery, and industrial equipment.

Limited Effect from Tariffs: Fitch expects tariffs to have a
limited effect on Versigent. The company produces most of its
products for the U.S. market from plants in Mexico, and those
products are largely compliant with the U.S.-Mexico-Canada (USMCA)
trade agreement. As such, those products are not currently subject
to tariffs.

Moreover, none of Versigent's key competitors produce similar parts
in the U.S., shielding the company from any potential customer loss
due to tariffs. Versigent is indirectly exposed to potential
vehicle production volatility from tariffs affecting the broader
U.S. auto industry. However, recent U.S. policy changes are likely
to support U.S. auto production.

Good Growth Prospects: Fitch expects Versigent to have solid growth
prospects over the long term. Versigent supplies harnesses, cables
and systems for both low-voltage (LV) and high-voltage (HV)
electrical architectures. Not only is overall demand for wire
harnesses and associated equipment likely to grow with rate of
vehicle production, but more advanced HV products are expected to
grow at a faster rate as vehicles become increasingly electrified.
HV systems generally result in higher content per vehicle (CPV)
than LV systems, and tend to carry higher margins.

10% EBITDA Margins: Fitch expects Versigent to generate solid
EBITDA margins following its separation from Aptiv. However,
Versigent's primary business of designing and manufacturing
electrical architecture solutions generates lower margins than
Aptiv's other products, such as advanced driver assistance systems
(ADAS), software-defined vehicle (SDV) products, and software.
Fitch expects Versigent's standalone EBITDA margins to run in the
10% range for several years following the spin-off, which is lower
than Aptiv's EBITDA margins, which have tended to run in the
high-teens range.

Mid-2x Leverage: Fitch forecasts Versigent to have gross EBITDA
leverage in the mid-2x range at the time of the separation, with
the potential for leverage to decline toward the upper-1x range
within a few years on higher EBITDA and term loan amortization.
Versigent could have the ability to de-lever more quickly if it
chooses to use available FCF to accelerate repayment of its term
loan A.

Low-Single-Digit FCF Margins: Fitch expects Versigent's
pre-dividend FCF margins to be solid for an auto supplier,
generally in the 2.5% range. Fitch expects capex as a percentage of
revenue to be in the 3.0%-3.5% range. Unlike Aptiv, which has
chosen not to pay a common dividend since the pandemic, Versigent
plans to pay a dividend. On a post-dividend basis, Fitch estimates
Versigent's FCF margins will run in the 1.5%-2.0% range.

Balanced Capital Allocation: Fitch expects Versigent to retain a
strong liquidity position following the separation. Fitch expects
the company to target maintaining around $300 million in cash on
its balance sheet, with additional liquidity available via its $850
million secured revolver. Fitch expects capital allocation to be
balanced across organic business investments, shareholder returns
via dividends and bolt-on acquisitions.

Peer Analysis

Versigent has a strong competitive position in a narrower market
than Aptiv. Like BorgWarner or Lear, Versigent is primarily
leveraged to the Tier 1 automotive market, while Aptiv is more
diversified. However, also like BorgWarner and Lear, Versigent's
electrical distribution products are powertrain agnostic, with no
risk of obsolescence as vehicle powertrains become more
electrified. Versigent's content per vehicle (CPV) tends to be
higher on electrified vehicle platforms than non-electrified
platforms.

With $8.8 billion in 2025 revenue, Versigent is a moderately sized
Tier 1 auto supplier, but it is smaller than most of Fitch's
publicly rated auto suppliers. From a margin perspective, Fitch
expects Versigent to have EBITDA margins in the high-single- to
low-double-digit range over the long term, in-line with
'BB'-category issuers, such as Dana Incorporated (BB+/Stable) or
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (BB-/Negative). Versigent's FCF
margins are expected to be stronger than those at Dana or Goodyear,
but not as strong as BorgWarner or Aptiv. Versigent's EBITDA
leverage is roughly in line with 'BB'-category auto suppliers.

Fitch’s Key Rating-Case Assumptions

- Global light vehicle production, weighted for Versigent's markets
declines slightly in 2026 before rising in the low-single-digit
range in subsequent years;

- Versigent's revenue rises in the low- to mid-single-digit range
over the next several years, reflecting growth over market and
positive mix in its vehicle electrical architecture technologies;

- EBITDA margins rise to around 10% in 2026 and beyond as the
company benefits from a combination of stable to modestly higher
production levels, a mix shift toward higher margin products and
the realization of benefits from cost-saving initiatives;

- The post-dividend FCF margin runs in the 1.5%-2.0% range over the
next several years following the spin-off;

- Capex runs at about 3.0%-3.5% of revenue annually;

- The company issues $2.0 billion of debt through a term loan A and
senior unsecured notes;

- The company uses proceeds from the new debt to pay a distribution
to Aptiv in 2026 following the closing of the spin-off;

- Versigent maintains a solid liquidity position, including cash
and revolver capacity, over the long term;

- Fitch has incorporated the following Treasury yield assumptions
in its forecasts: five-year at 3.6% and seven-year at 4.2%;

- Fitch assumes SOFR rates run from 3.9% in the near term to around
3.0% over the long term.

Corporate Rating Tool Inputs and Scores

Fitch scored the issuer as follows, using its CRT to produce the
SCP:

- Business and financial profile factors (assessment, relative
importance): Management (bbb-, Lower), Sector Characteristics (bb-,
Lower), Market and Competitive Positioning (bb+, Higher),
Diversification and Asset Quality (bbb-, Moderate), Company
Operational Characteristics (bb+, Moderate), Profitability (bbb-,
Higher), Financial Structure (bb+, Higher), and Financial
Flexibility (bbb+, Moderate).

- The quantitative financial subfactors are based on custom CRT
financial period parameters: 40% weight for the forecast year 2026,
40% for the forecast year 2027 and 20% for the forecast year 2028.

- The Governance assessment of 'Good' results in no adjustment.

- The Operating Environment assessment of 'a' results in no
adjustment.

- The SCP is 'bb+'.

To derive the IDR:

- No adjustments were made to the SCP, resulting in an IDR of
'BB+'.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- A shift in industry dynamics that leads to a substantial loss of
share for Versigent's products;

- Sustained EBITDA margin below 8.0% and post-dividend FCF margin
below 1.5%;

- Sustained gross EBITDA leverage above 2.5x.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- Progressing on strategic growth initiatives around high-voltage
electrification and non-automotive applications;

- Sustained EBITDA margin above 11.0% and post-dividend FCF margin
above 2.0%;

- Sustained gross EBITDA leverage below 2.0x.

Liquidity and Debt Structure

Fitch expects Versigent's liquidity to remain strong over the
intermediate term. Fitch expects the company to have about $300
million in cash and cash equivalents at the time of separation from
Aptiv. Fitch also expects Versigent to have access to an $850
million secured revolver with a five-year tenor.

Fitch expects Versigent's debt structure at the time of separation
from Aptiv to consist of a $500 million secured term loan A with a
five-year tenor and two series of senior unsecured notes totaling
$1.5 billion. Fitch expects the company's secured revolver will be
undrawn at the time of separation.

Issuer Profile

Versigent is a global leader in the design, development and
manufacture of automotive LV and HV electrical architectures.

MACROECONOMIC ASSUMPTIONS AND SECTOR FORECASTS

Fitch's latest quarterly Global Corporates Sector Forecasts Monitor
data file which aggregates key data points used in its credit
analysis. Fitch's macroeconomic forecasts, commodity price
assumptions, default rate forecasts, sector key performance
indicators and sector-level forecasts are among the data items
included.

Climate Vulnerability Signals

The Climate.VS for Versigent for 2035 is 50. This score reflects
the potential risks associated with policies encouraging the
adoption of alternative drivetrain vehicles, posing additional
risks to auto suppliers, including higher capex, reduced margins
during the technology transition, and product risks. The risks
identified to not influence the current rating. Any potential
future impact on the rating may differ from the illustrative rating
impact in the Climate.VS framework, reflecting the evolution of
Fitch's assessment of the global risks, action the entity might
take to adapt to or mitigate the exposure, and any other relevant
factors.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not

D San Jose sought relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy
Code (Bankr. E.D. Texas Case No. 25-43157) on October 22, 2025. In
its petition, the Debtor reported between $10 million and $50
million in both assets and liabilities.

Honorable Bankruptcy Judge Brenda T. Rhoades handles the case.

The Debtor is represented by Joyce Lindauer, Esq., at Joyce W.
Lindauer Attorney, PLLC.


DAVID MOCHE: Can't Retain Broker to Arrange Sale of Marital Home
----------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. John P. Mastando III of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York ruled on several motions in the
bankruptcy case of Selim David Moche.

This bankruptcy case arises from a long-running matrimonial dispute
and involves the parties' marital residence and the Debtor's
alleged noncompliance with his spousal support obligations ordered
by the state matrimonial court.

The Debtor and Ms. Wolfson were married in 1998 and jointly owned
residential cooperative units located at 525 East 89th Street,
Units 1K and 2K, New York (the "Property"), which served as their
marital home. On December 9, 2021, Ms. Wolfson commenced a divorce
proceeding in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York
County.

Beginning in February 2023, the New York Court entered a series of
orders directing the Debtor to pay spousal support, child support,
and the carrying costs associated with the Property. The Debtor
failed to comply, claiming inability to pay.

On June 1, 2023, the New York Court reaffirmed the Debtor's
obligation to pay the mortgage and related carrying costs.

On June 30, 2025, the New York Court found the Debtor in willful
contempt for violating the court's prior orders and directed him to
cure all outstanding amounts, plus late fees.

On August 21, 2025, the Debtor filed a voluntary petition for
Chapter 11 relief in this District. The filing triggered an
automatic stay of all actions in the Matrimonial Proceeding,
including enforcement of the New York Court's June 30, 2025
contempt order.

Before the Court are three motions:

   (1) the Debtor's motion to retain Corcoran Group as a real
estate broker to arrange a sale of the Debtor's asserted interest
in his former marital residence (the "Retention Motion"), dated
October 20, 2025;

   (2) the motion of Nancy Wolfson-Moche, the Debtor's separated
spouse and an unsecured creditor, for relief from the automatic
stay to resume the parties' matrimonial proceeding in state court
("Ms. Wolfson's Stay Relief Motion"), dated December 1, 2025; and

   (3) the motion of Ridgewood Savings Bank (the "Bank"), a secured
creditor holding a mortgage on the Debtor's former marital
residence, for relief from the automatic stay to allow the Bank to
proceed with foreclosure (the "Bank's Stay Relief Motion"), dated
December 3, 2025.

Ms. Wolfson objected to the Retention Motion, arguing that the
Debtor cannot sell property that he does not own.

The Debtor asserts that he seeks only to retain Corcoran to
identify a prospective buyer, not to consummate a sale.

The Debtor contends that Ms. Wolfson filed the motion solely to
frustrate his efforts to reorganize and has failed to demonstrate
"cause" for stay relief.

The Debtor opposed the Bank's Stay Relief Motion arguing that stay
relief is unwarranted because the Debtor has substantial equity in
the property and there is no risk of diminution in the value of the
Bank's lien.

Ms. Wolfson also opposed the Bank's Stay Relief Motion, arguing
that stay relief is unwarranted given the property's substantial
equity cushion and further asserting that the Debtor is responsible
for paying any post-petition arrears to the Bank.

Adversary Proceeding

On September 12, 2025, the Debtor commenced an adversary proceeding
against Ms. Wolfson, seeking authority under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 363(h)
to sell the Property free and clear of Ms. Wolfson's interest and
distribute the proceeds according to the parties' respective
rights. The Debtor asserts that a partition in kind is
impracticable because he holds an "undivided interest" as a "tenant
by the entirety," and that a partition by sale is necessary to
recover assets for the estate.

Ms. Wolfson disputed the Debtor's allegations and opposed the
proposed Sec. 363 sale. Ms. Wolfson denies that she is a codebtor,
arguing that the New York Court has determined that she is the
rightful owner of 100% of the Property and has a lien against 100%
of the Debtor's purported share in the Property.

Debtor contends that this Court is not bound by the Matrimonial
Proceeding because Secs. 327(a) and 328(a) only require that a
broker be a "disinterested professional" retained "on reasonable
terms." The Debtor argues that he satisfied the statutory
requirements because Corcoran is an "internationally known,
top-level brokerage" and the agreement was negotiated at arm's
length. The Debtor further argues that, even if he sought a sale
now, he could do so as debtor-in-possession under Sec. 363(h)
because "all legal and equitable interests" became property of the
estate upon a Chapter 11 filing.

According to the Court, there is no dispute that the minimum
statutory requirements of Secs. 327(a) and 328(a) are satisfied.
Ms. Wolfson does not contest Corcoran's ability to conduct a sale
in a disinterested and professional manner and she is not claiming
that Corcoran's interests are not aligned with that of the estate.
The key question on this issue is whether, given the particular
facts and circumstances in this case, retention is warranted,
notwithstanding that Corcoran is a disinterested, non-adverse
professional within the meaning of Sec. 327. The Court finds that
the facts and circumstances weigh against retention.

To the extent the Debtor argues that the pendency of the Adversary
Proceeding does not bar the Retention Motion because he may
separately arrange a future sale through a broker, regardless of
whether he has a present right to sell, the Court is unpersuaded.
The Debtor cites no legal authority for the proposition that a
debtor may retain a broker to market and sell property before
establishing a cognizable interest or showing that it constitutes
property of the estate. In fact, existing case law suggests
otherwise.

The Court says absent a determination that the Debtor holds a
cognizable interest in the Property, or consent from Ms. Wolfson,
the Debtor lacks authority to enter into a brokerage agreement that
contemplates sale of the Property. Thus, unless and until the
parties' rights to the Property are adjudicated on the merits, the
Debtor may not retain Corcoran as a real estate broker.

The Court finds that:

   (1) retention of a real estate broker under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 327
is unwarranted;

   (2) "cause" exists to lift the automatic stay to permit Ms.
Wolfson to resume the Matrimonial Proceeding; and

   (3) the Bank has failed to demonstrate "cause" for relief from
the automatic stay to proceed with foreclosure against the
Property.

Accordingly, the Court denies the Debtor's Retention Motion, grants
Ms. Wolfson's Stay Relief Motion, and denies the Bank's Stay Relief
Motion.

DPL LLC: Fitch Affirms 'BB+' IDR, Outlook Stable
------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) of the
following The AES Corporation (AES; BBB-/Stable) subsidiaries with
Stable Rating Outlooks:

- IPALCO Enterprises, Inc. (IPALCO; BBB-/Stable);

- Indianapolis Power and Light Company (dba AES Indiana;
BBB+/Stable);

- DPL LLC (DPL; BB+/Stable);

- The Dayton Power & Light Company (dba AES Ohio; BBB-/Stable)

On March 2, 2026, AES announced that it has entered a definitive
agreement under which a consortium of infrastructure sponsors will
acquire the company for $15 per share.

The affirmation and Stable Outlook reflect Fitch's expectation that
AES' underlying utility business strategy and operations will not
materially change post-transaction and the utilities will continue
to focus on organic rate base growth. Fitch does not expect the
subsidiaries' financials to be adversely affected by the proposed
transaction, which is expected to close around YE 2026, subject to
regulatory approval.

Key Rating Drivers

Change of Control (CoC): Several debt instruments within AES'
capital structure contain put options, including debt instruments
at its utility subsidiaries. These put options are triggered by a
CoC and/or a rating downgrade and could affect approximately $1.3
billion of utility holdco debt.

To ensure AES and its subsidiaries have sufficient liquidity to
cover any potential redemptions triggered by the transaction, the
consortium has provided a backstop credit facility available for
AES and its subsidiaries. Borrowings against the backstop facility
will be used to satisfy the CoC put option and Fitch expects AES'
and subsidiaries' capital structures and debt levels, including the
utilities, will remain unchanged and consistent with Fitch's
current ratings for IPALCO, AES Indiana, DPL and AES Ohio.

Regulatory Approvals: Completion of the proposed transaction will
be contingent upon regulatory approvals from the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the
United States, Hart-Scott-Rodino and the Public Utilities
Commission of Ohio (PUCO). The Indiana Utility Regulatory
Commission does not require approval of the proposed transaction
because state law does not grant the commission jurisdiction over
mergers at the corporate holding company level. Regulatory
approvals are expected to be forthcoming ahead of an expected close
in late 2026 to early 2027.

Unanticipated, adverse regulatory outcomes or material concessions
to ratepayers that materially weaken AES Ohio's FFO leverage below
its downgrade sensitivity could result in a negative rating
action.

AES Take-Private Transaction: Fitch views AES' take-private
transaction as credit neutral for IPALCO, DPL, AES Indiana, and AES
Ohio. There are no material changes to AES' underlying business
strategy and operations. Post-transaction, Fitch expects IPALCO,
DPL, AES Indiana and AES Ohio to remain focused on organic rate
base growth and data center opportunities in a credit-supportive
manner while mitigating risk through appropriately structured
tariffs and legislative protections. Fitch does not expect the
transaction to affect the subsidiaries' financials. IPALCO and
DPL's financial performance will remain driven by the performance
of AES Indiana and AES Ohio, respectively.

IPALCO and IPL

Rate Case Filing: On June 3, 2025, AES Indiana filed a new rate
case to seek a two-step rate increase of $360.4 million in step one
and $107.6 million in step 2, totaling $468 million. Net rate
increase seeks over the two-year period is about $193 million,
after adjusting for existing amounts recovered through trackers. On
Oct. 16, 2025, AES Indiana filed for partial settlement with the
Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission (IURC) for net rate increases
of $90.7 million, which averages 3.35% annually over a two-year
period. A final decision by the IURC is expected by 2Q26.

Elevated Capex: IPALCO has a large capital program to execute
through 2027, with capex of about 2.5x the depreciation expense
driven by AES Indiana. Fitch expects IPALCO and AES Indiana to fund
this large capital program prudently in a credit supportive manner,
through a mix of internal cash flows, debt issuances, and equity
support from the corporate parent. This will allow AES Indiana to
maintain its regulatory capital structure and IPALCO to maintain
its credit metrics within sensitivity thresholds.

Adequate Leverage: IPALCO's 2024 FFO leverage was 6.4x, which was
higher than the downgrade threshold due to higher capex and new
base rate in-effect in May 2024. With full-year new base rates in
effect for 2025, continual equity support from AES, and capital
costs recovery, Fitch expect credit metrics to improve with FFO
leverage of about 5.6x-5.9x through 2027. For AES Indiana, Fitch
forecasts FFO leverage of about 4.5x-4.7x through 2027, with
minimal downgrade cushion.

Fully Regulated Business: IPALCO's rating reflects its low business
risk profile as a utility holding company of a regulated electric
utility-AES Indiana. The latter is a fully regulated, vertically
integrated electric utility operating in Indianapolis and other
communities of Central Indiana. AES Indiana's revenue represents
100% of IPALCO's consolidated revenue.

Parent and Subsidiary Linkage: There is a parent subsidiary linkage
between AES Indiana and IPALCO. Fitch view IPALCO's parent
consolidated profile based on consolidated metrics and AES
Indiana's standalone credit profile (SCP) as stronger, so Fitch
follows the weaker parent-stronger subsidiary path. Legal ring
fencing for AES Indiana is porous given the economic regulation
protection. Access and control are porous as AES Indiana is wholly
owned by IPALCO, issues its own debt and does not guarantee debt at
IPALCO. Fitch limits the difference between the IDRs to two
notches.

DPL and AES Ohio

Adequate Credit Metrics: DPL's 2024 FFO leverage remains high at
10.4x, driven by execution of a very large capital plan that is
about 5x depreciation expense. With the recent closing of the
minority sale and retirement of debt, Fitch expects DPL's FFO
leverage to improve to about 6.8x through 2027, with new
distribution base rates established. Fitch forecasts AES Ohio's FFO
leverage average at about 5.3x through 2027.

Improving Regulatory Construct: The Ohio legislature recently
passed House Bill 15 (HB15), which became law on May 15, 2025. It
replaced electric security plans (ESPs) and riders with
forward-looking three-year rate cases that would be subject to
annual true-ups. In addition, the legislation includes a statutory
deadline, 405 days (including 45 days for application completeness
review), for the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO), to
render rate case decisions. Fitch views this positively as the
multi-year rate plan and true-up provide cash flow visibility and
stability. Fitch expects AES Ohio to utilize this new rate setting
construct for distribution rates in 2027.

2025 Rate Order: On Nov. 29, 2024, AES Ohio filed for electric
distribution base rate increase requesting $235.2 million, or $190
million net of distribution investment rider (DIR). On Aug 13,
2025, the utility filed a settlement of $167.9 million, which the
PUCO fully adopted and approved on Nov. 5, 2025. The outcome
represents about 71% of the utility's requested increase. The
approved return on equity (ROE) was 10% with an equity layer of
53.9%. Fitch views this as a balanced outcome.

2025 Multiyear Rate Filing: On Nov. 10, 2025, AES Ohio filed for
multiyear electric distribution rate increase of $237.6 million
over a three-year period under the improved regulatory construct.
The requested base rate increase is $170 million, $41.4 million and
$26.3 million for the first, second and third year with a
prospective test year ending Dec. 31, 2027, 2028 and 2029,
respectively. For the first year, $94.5 million of the rate
increase sought would be transferred to base rates from various
riders. This would bring the proposed net rate increase for the
first year to about $75.5 million. Fitch assumes a constructive
outcome from the rate decision.

Parent and Subsidiary Linkage: There is a parent subsidiary linkage
between AES Ohio and DPL. Fitch determines DPL's parent
consolidated profile based on consolidated metrics. Fitch considers
AES Ohio's SCP to be stronger. As such, Fitch has followed the
weaker parent/stronger subsidiary path. As a regulated utility and
holding company, legal ring fencing for AES Ohio is porous, given
the general protections afforded by the regulatory capital
structure and other restrictions. Access and control are porous.
AES Ohio issues its own debt and does not guarantee the debt at
DPL. Due to these considerations, Fitch generally limits the
difference between the IDRs to two notches.

Peer Analysis

IPALCO Enterprises, Inc.

IPALCO's ratings are in line with other utilities holdco's: Cleco
Corporate Holdings LLC (Cleco; BBB-/Stable) and Puget Energy Inc.
(Puget; BBB-/Stable), which operate a single-state regulated and
integrated utility. IPALCO benefits from the constructive
regulatory and business environment in Indiana for its utility
which is better as compared to Washington for Puget but comparable
to Louisiana for Cleco.

Fitch projects that IPALCO's FFO leverage at about 5.8x through
2027. This is weaker than Puget, which is expected to average 5.3x
through 2030, as well as Cleco, which is expected to average around
5.0x between 2025-2027.

Indianapolis Power & Light Company

AES Indiana's closest peers are Indiana Michigan Power Company
(IMP; A-/Stable) and Northern Indiana Public Service Company
(NIPSCO; BBB/Stable). Similar to IMP and NIPSCO, AES Indiana
benefits from a supportive regulatory and business environment in
Indiana. However, Fitch considers NIPSCO's gas and electric assets
superior to AES Indiana's and IMP's integrated electric-only
operations. With the decarbonization trends in the state, NIPSCO
and IMP plan to exit coal generation by 2028 whereas AES Indiana
will exit coal by end of 2026.

NIPSCO's rating is based on consolidated credit profile of its
corporate parent NiSource, which is expected to average about
mid-5x FFO leverage in the next few years. AES Indiana is
constrained on the upside by its parent IPALCO's rating. AES
Indiana's forecast FFO leverage about 4.5x-4.7x through 2027. IMP's
ratings are supported by its lower FFO leverage which is projected
to remain around 3.5x.

DPL

DPL is a nearly 100% regulated transmission and distribution (T&D)
utility holding company after retiring, selling and closing its
merchant operations. DPL operates a single state regulated utility,
similar to Cleco Corporate Holdings, LLC (Cleco; BBB-/Stable) and
IPALCO Enterprises (IPALCO; BBB-/Stable). DPL's regulated T&D
utility carries lower operating risks than Cleco's and IPALCO's
utilities, which are exposed to coal generation.

Ohio regulation was constructive historically but has been
unpredictable in recent years. The recent passing of a multi-year
rate plan with annual true-ups is positive. Fitch expects DPL's FFO
leverage to improve to about 7.4x in 2025 with the recent minority
interest sale of AES Ohio and the partial use of proceeds to repay
debt. Fitch expects DPL's FFO leverage to further improve, average
about 6.8x through 2027 with new base distribution rates
established. Fitch expects Cleco's FFO leverage to average about
5.0x between 2025-2027, while IPALCO's FFO leverage average about
5.8x over the same period.

AES Ohio

AES Ohio's peers include Ohio Power Company (OP; BBB+/Stable), Ohio
Edison Company (OE; BBB+/Positive), The Toledo Edison Company (TE;
BBB+/Positive), and The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company
(CE; BBB+/Positive), which are all electric transmission and
distribution utilities in Ohio with generally supportive rate
regulation and low business risk profile. The Positive Outlooks on
OE, TE and CE reflects solid underlying credit metrics and
expectation of reasonable outcomes in pending base rate cases in
Ohio.

Fitch estimates FFO leverage will average of about 3.2x for OE,
5.2x for CE, 4.2x for TE and 4.7x for OP through 2027. Fitch
expects AES Ohio's FFO leverage will remain high in 2025 at about
6.2x before improving to about 5.0x- 5.3x in 2026-2027, driven by
new distribution base rates in effect.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

IPALCO Enterprises, Inc.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Negative regulatory treatment or an aggressive upstream dividend
causing FFO leverage to rise above 6.0x on a sustained basis.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- IPALCO could be upgraded if FFO leverage is below 5.0x on a
sustained basis.

AES Indiana

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Negative regulatory developments resulting in FFO leverage rising
above 4.7x on a sustained basis.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- FFO leverage sustained below 3.7x at AES Indiana and an upgrade
at IPALCO, as Fitch maintains a two-notch IDR differential between
IPALCO and AES Indiana.

DPL

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Adverse regulatory outcomes and/or material give backs to
customers in a final commission order approving the proposed
transaction that causes DPL's FFO leverage to sustain above 7.3x.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- DPL's FFO leverage sustaining below 6.3x.

AES Ohio

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade:

- AES Ohio's FFO leverage sustains above 6.3x;

- Signs of deterioration of regulatory construct or material give
back to customers in a final commission order approving the
proposed transaction.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade:

- AES Ohio's FFO leverage sustains below 5.3x

Liquidity and Debt Structure

IPALCO and AES Indiana

IPALCO and AES Indiana continue to have sufficient liquidity. As of
Dec. 31, 2025, IPALCO had about $70 million of unrestricted cash
and $500 million availability under its $500 million unsecured RCF
due in March 2030. The RCF includes an uncommitted $200 million
accordion feature to provide AES Indiana with an option to request
an increase in the size of the facility at any time prior to March
29, 2029, subject to approval by the lenders. The revolver also has
two one-year extension options. AES Indiana is required to maintain
total debt/total capitalization not in excess of 0.67x to 1.0x
under the credit facility. As of Dec. 31, 2025, AES Indiana was
compliant with all covenants.

AES Indiana's upcoming maturities include $90 million first
mortgage bonds (FMBs) due in 2026. IPALCO's next maturity will be
$475 million senior secured notes due in 2030. Fitch expects IPALCO
and AES Indiana to continue to have good access to capital markets
thereby managing any refinancing risks.

DPL and AES Ohio

DPL and AES Ohio continue to have adequate liquidity. On March 25,
2025, AES Ohio amended and restated its unsecured RCF The RCF has a
$350 million borrowing limit, with a maturity date of March 25,
2030. The RCF includes an uncommitted $150 million accordion
feature to provide AES Indiana with an option to request an
increase in the size of the facility at any time prior to March 25,
2029, subject to approval by the lenders.

As of Dec. 31, 2025, DPL had about $83 million of cash and $350
million available under its RCF. The RCF has one financial covenant
that requires debt/total capitalization below 67%. As of Sept. 30,
2025, the company was compliant with all covenants.

With the recent closing of the minority interest sale of AES Ohio,
DPL used the transaction proceeds to retire $415 million of debt in
2025. DPL and AES Ohio do not have large debt maturities until 2027
when $140 million of FMBs mature.

Fitch’s Key Rating-Case Assumptions

- Continued equity support from shareholders to IPALCO flowing
further to AES Indiana;

- Dividends paid in line with maintenance of the regulatory capital
structure at AES Indiana;

- Dividends paid in line with the net income for IPALCO.

DPL and AES Ohio

EAST DUNDEE: Moody's Downgrades Issuer & GOULT Ratings to B1
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has downgraded to B1 from A3 the issuer, general
obligation unlimited tax (GOULT), and general obligation limited
tax (GOLT) ratings of East Dundee and Countryside Fire Protection
District, IL. The ratings were placed under review for further
downgrade. As of fiscal 2024, the district had roughly $4 million
of outstanding debt.

The downgrade to B1 reflects the district's default on its January
2026 debt service payment that has not yet been repaid, ongoing
structural imbalance and weak financial management.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The B1 issuer rating reflects a recent payment default of principal
and interest, along with Moody's expectations of full recovery upon
payment of debt service as soon as Cook County distributes tax
receipts, or the district receives the proceeds from tax
anticipation warrants. It also incorporates the district's strained
operating liquidity and weak financial management practices that
led to the January default. The district's cash position eroded to
2% in fiscal 2024 because of unanticipated capital needs and
over-budget staffing costs. In fiscal 2025 the district anticipated
another operating deficit but issued long-term debt equivalent to
about 20% of annual revenues to shore up liquidity for operations.

While the deficit borrowing signaled structural imbalance, the
added cash was meant to eliminate the need for short-term cash flow
borrowing, which the district had relied on in prior years. The
district instead exhausted these proceeds and cash flows were
further weakened by delays in the distribution of property tax
receipts by Cook Count. The district failed to secure temporary
funds to cover the cash low point and to make their debt service
payment on January 15, 2026. The property tax receipts reportedly
have still not been fully distributed to the district.

The district repaid the missed debt service payment on the 2021B
bonds on March 05 when it received a portion of its property tax
distribution from Cook County. The district is working with a local
bank to issue tax anticipation warrants in an amount sufficient
make payment to repay the insurer for its payment on the 2021A
bonds. The district anticipates issuing the tax anticipation
warrants on March 13 and intends to cure the default on March 19.

Governance is a driver of this rating action given a lack of
adequate planning and lack of willingness to take measures to pay
debt service on time. The district did not utilize available tools
to maintain sufficient operating liquidity, such as cash flow
borrowing and expenditure controls.

Leverage is moderate, with a long-term liabilities ratio of about
200%. Resident incomes are a solid 108% of US medians. The
district's tax base is somewhat concentrated with the top ten
taxpayer concentration at over 20%, largely from a shopping mall.

The B1 rating on the district's GOULT debt is at the same level as
the B1 issuer rating based on the district's full faith and credit
pledge to pay debt service, and ability to levy without limitation
as to rate or amount.

The GOLT debt certificates are rated at the same level as the
district's B1 issuer rating given the district's pledge of all
available funds to pay debt service.

RATING OUTLOOK

The ratings are under review for possible downgrade, driven by
ongoing cash flow pressure and pending execution of a plan to repay
the remaining missed debt service. Moody's reviews will assess the
district's ability to close on a tax anticipation warrant, repay
the missed debt service payment, and generate sufficient operating
cash flow to meet operating and debt service requirements on time.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Demonstrated ability to consistently balance operations

-- Maintenance of materially improved liquidity

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Failure to promptly remedy default

-- Further delays and/or defaults in debt service payments

PROFILE

The East Dundee and Countryside Fire Protection District is located
in the northwestern suburbs of Chicago, with portions in both Cook

EDDIE BAUER: Planned Auction for 174 Stores Scrapped
----------------------------------------------------
Dietrich Knauth of Reuters reports that Eddie Bauer LLC canceled
its planned bankruptcy auction for 174 brick-and-mortar stores on
Wednesday, March 4, 2026, noting that no bids were received by the
Tuesday deadline. The company, which filed for Chapter 11 in New
Jersey last month, had hoped a sale could preserve most of its
retail locations.

The auction, originally scheduled for March 6, 2026, followed the
launch of store-closing sales at all locations. In a court filing,
Eddie Bauer stated that it remains receptive to offers to purchase
some or all of its stores while continuing liquidation sales across
its U.S. and Canadian locations, the report relays.

The company has retained RCS Real Estate Advisors to market the
leases of its 174 stores spanning 40 U.S. states and six Canadian
provinces. Eddie Bauer entered bankruptcy with roughly $1.7 billion
in debt, affecting only its branded retail operations. Other parts
of the business, including e-commerce, wholesale, and
manufacturing, remain separate and unaffected, according to
Reuters.

Founded in Seattle, Eddie Bauer has sold outdoor apparel for 106
years and is credited with the 1940 invention of the quilted down
"Skyliner" jacket. The retailer faces ongoing challenges from
declining sales, inflation, supply-chain disruptions, and
tariff-related uncertainty, following a prior bankruptcy filing in
2009, the report cites.

ELETSON HOLDINGS: Individual Judgment Debtors Found in Contempt
---------------------------------------------------------------
Judge John P. Mastando III of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of New York granted in part Eletson Holdings,
Inc.'s motion to for findings of contempt and application for bench
warrants for arrest as to the Individual Judgment Debtors in aid of
judgment enforcement.

On September 22, 2025, this Court entered a judgment ("September
22, 2025 Judgment") in favor of Eletson Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings")
against Laskarina Karastamati, Vasilis Hadjieleftheriadis,
Konstatinos Chatzieleftheriadis, Ioannis Zilakos, Niki Zilakos,
Adrianos Psomadakis-Karastamatis, Eleni Giannakopoulous, Panos
Paxinoz, and Emmanel Andreulaks
("Individual Judgment Debtors"); and Family Unity Trust Company,
Glafkos Trust Company, Lassia Investment Company, and Elafonissos
Shipping Corporation ("Entity Judgment Debtors," and with the
Individual Judgment Debtors, "Judgment Debtors").

The September 22, 2025 Judgment awarded Holdings accrued monetary
sanctions imposed on the Judgment Debtors because of their failure
to comply with this Court's orders and their efforts to impede this
Court's confirmation order and the subsequent reorganization of
Holdings, including by, inter alia, failing to update the address
of record for the company, and opposing judicial recognition of
this Court's confirmation order in foreign jurisdictions.

On October 21, 2025, this Court entered a further judgment
("October 21, 2025 Judgment," and with the September 22, 2025
Judgment, "Judgments") in favor of Holdings against the Judgment
Debtors, except for Laskarina Karastamati, for legal fees incurred
associated with the Judgment Debtors' noncompliance with this
Court's orders.

On December 8, 2025, after the Individual Judgment Debtors failed
to respond to Holdings' post-judgment deposition notices or to
appear at those depositions, Holdings moved to compel the
Individual Judgment Debtors' depositions in aid of enforcing the
Judgments ("Motion to Compel"). On January 12, 2026, after the
Individual Judgment Debtors failed to oppose the Motion to Compel
or appear at a hearing on the Motion to Compel, the Court granted
the Motion to Compel.

Now before the Court is Holdings' Motion for Findings of Contempt
and Application for Bench Warrants for Arrest as to the Individual
Judgment Debtors in Aid of Judgment Enforcement, dated February 11,
2026 ("Arrest Motion").

The Arrest Motion argues that arrest warrants are necessary to
compel the Individual Judgment Debtors to appear at their
post-judgment depositions and to comply with this Court's orders,
as increasing monetary sanctions have failed to compel their
compliance. The Arrest Motion argues further that Holdings is
entitled to depose the Individual Judgment Debtors in aid of
enforcing the Judgments, and that the notices Holdings served on
the Individual Judgment Debtors scheduling depositions and
notifying them of this Court's order granting the Motion to Compel
and setting a deadline for the Individual Judgment Debtors'
depositions were proper under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
Holdings seeks attorneys' fees and costs incurred with preparing
and appearing for the depositions that the Individual Judgment
Debtors did not attend, and in bringing the Arrest Motion, as well
as $5,000 per day on each Individual Judgment Debtor for each day
they remain in violation of this Court's order granting the Motion
to Compel.

The Court agrees with Holdings, and the Arrest Motion is granted in
part.

As an initial matter, the Court notes that the Individual Judgment
Debtors failed to respond to the Arrest Motion, either by written
pleading or by appearing at the Hearing, and thus they defaulted on
the Arrest Motion.

Moreover, in light of the lengthy history of this case set forth in
numerous prior opinions and orders, the Court concludes that
additional monetary sanctions will not suffice to compel the
Individual Judgment Debtors' compliance with this Court's orders,
including its January 13, 2026 order granting the Motion to Compel
and ordering the Individual Judgment Debtors to appear for
depositions, as well as the Court's prior orders sanctioning the
Individual Judgment Debtors and orders related to confirmation of
the Chapter 11 Plan. Given the failure of prior monetary sanctions,
and the history of the Individual Judgment Debtors' noncompliance
with this Court's orders, the Individual Judgment Debtors' arrest
for civil contempt is warranted, as is their incarceration up to
and until the time they appear for their post-judgment depositions
or satisfy the Judgments against them

For these reasons, the Arrest Motion is granted in part, including
the request for associated attorneys' fees and costs. Given the
Court's finding of contempt and granting of the application for
bench warrants for the arrest of the Individual Judgment Debtors,
the Court denies the request for the imposition of further
additional fines against the Individual Judgment Debtors.

ENTRUST ENERGY: Court Tosses Gross Negligence Claim v. ERCOT
------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Marvin Isgur of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Texas entered a final, take-nothing judgment in favor
of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas ("ERCOT") in the
adversary proceeding captioned as ANNA PHILLIPS, AS TRUSTEE OF THE
ENTRUST LIQUIDATING TRUST, Plaintiff, VS. ELECTRIC RELIABILITY
COUNCIL OF TEXAS, INC., Defendant, ADVERSARY NO. 22-3018 (Bankr.
S.D. Tex.).

This adversary proceeding arises out of the events of Winter Storm
Uri in February 2021, which rendered Entrust Energy, Inc.
insolvent.

On December 11, 2025, the Court denied ERCOT's request to abstain,
dismissed the Trustee's takings claim, and converted ERCOT's motion
to dismiss the Trustee's gross negligence claim into a motion for
summary judgment.

ERCOT moves for summary judgment on the gross negligence claim
asserted by Anna Phillips, as Trustee of the Entrust Liquidating
Trust, contending that it is immune from liability under Texas law.
The gross negligence claim is the only remaining claim asserted by
the Trustee. The Trustee opposes summary judgment and argues ERCOT
is not entitled to immunity because the Fifth Circuit held that
ERCOT was not entitled to sovereign immunity under the Eleventh
Amendment of the United States Constitution.

Under substantive Texas law, ERCOT is entitled to state-law
sovereign immunity from liability. According to the Court, while
the Texas Legislature has provided a limited waiver of sovereign
immunity, the Trustee's gross negligence claim does not fall within
the limited range of causes of action where Texas has waived
sovereign immunity. Thus, the Court concludes because ERCOT is
immune from liability on the Trustee's gross negligence claim under
Texas law, the Trustee's claim fails as a matter of law.

EP ENERGY: 5th Circuit Affirms Rulings in Lease Dispute
-------------------------------------------------------
In the appeal styled Storey Minerals, Limited; Storey Surface,
Limited; Maltsberger, L.L.C.; Maltsberger/Storey Ranch, L.L.C.;
Maltsberger/Storey Ranch Lands, L.L.C.; Rene R. Barrientos,
Limited, Appellants, versus EP Energy E&P Company, L.P., Appellee,
No. 24-20477 (5th Cir.), Judges Kurt D. Engelhardt, Jennifer Walker
Elrod and Stuart Kyle Duncan of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Fifth Circuit affirmed the rulings of the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the Southern District of Texas and the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Texas that EP Energy
E&P Company, L.P.'s temporary cessation of production had not
terminated its mineral leases with Storey Minerals, Ltd., et al.

Appellants Storey Minerals, Ltd., et al. (the "MSB Owners") appeal
adverse rulings regarding subject-matter jurisdiction, ripeness,
and the merits of their post-petition "administrative expense"
claims, presented under 11 U.S.C. Sec. 503(b)(1)(A), in
Debtor–Appellee EP Energy E&P Co., L.P.'s ("EP" or "EP Energy")
Chapter 11 bankruptcy case.

The MSB Owners are the lessors/landowners for 16 "non-standard"
mineral (oil and gas) leases (the "Leases") on land located in
South Texas (the "Leased Premises"). Chapter 11 Debtor–Appellee
EP is the lessee/operator for the Leases. EP and its affiliates
(the "Reorganized Debtors") filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases on
October 3, 2019 (the "Petition Date").

In early May 2020, during the pendency of EP's Chapter 11
bankruptcy case, a substantial decrease in demand for oil
(associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and other market forces)
caused market prices to collapse. Seeking to avoid producing oil
that would be sold at a loss, or not at all, EP temporarily ceased
production on the Eagle-Ford field, which included wells on the
Leased Premises. Within 40 days, however, EP resumed production.

On August 27, 2020, the bankruptcy court confirmed EP's Plan of
Reorganization ("Plan"). The Plan became effective on October 1,
2020 (the "Effective Date"). In accordance with the Plan, the
bankruptcy court set October 31, 2020 as the "Administrative
Expense Claims Bar Date," i.e., the deadline, unless otherwise
provided by the Plan, court order, or agreement, for filing
requests for payment of "Administrative Expense Claims" under 11
U.S.C. Sec. 503.

On October 30, 2020, the MSB Owners filed a motion in the
bankruptcy court entitled "MSB Owners' Renewed Motion for Allowance
of Administrative Expense Claims Pursuant to Section 503(b)(1)(A)
of the Bankruptcy Code" ("the October 30 Motion" or "the
Administrative Expense Motion"). Contending that EP's interim
cessation of production had caused the Leases to terminate -- such
that "EP's continued oil and gas exploration activities" on the
Leased Premises constitute "an ongoing trespass giving rise to
trespass damages" under Texas law -- the October 30 Motion asserts
that those damages qualify as "actual, necessary costs and expenses
of preserving the estate" for purposes of 11 U.S.C. Sec.
503(b)(1)(A).

Six days later, on November 5, 2020, the MSB Owners filed a motion
entitled "MSB Owners' Motion for Threshold Determination that
Proposed Petition Does Not Include a Prepetition Claim." The motion
was accompanied by a proposed order and petition. Emphasizing that
the MSB Owners were seeking a determination that the Leases had
terminated (under Texas law) as a result of EP's post-petition
conduct, and that EP's resulting trespass/conversion continued
after the Plan's Effective Date, the MSB Owners' November 2020
submissions confirmed their desire to have a state court adjudicate
the merits of the state-law lease-termination/trespass damages
claims underlying their §503(b)(1)(A) administrative expense
claims.

Over the ensuing several months, numerous submissions raising and
disputing a number of issues, including jurisdiction, abstention,
and state law, followed. On December 14, 2021, the bankruptcy court
rendered its decision. Reasoning that 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1334(b) and
Sec. 157 grant it jurisdiction over Sec. 503(b)(1)(A) requests for
payment of administrative expenses, and that the MSB Owners'
October 30 motion presented Sec. 503 requests for payment, the
bankruptcy court held that its jurisdictional authority necessarily
included determining the validity (under state law) of the MSB
Owners' underlying lease-termination/trespass claim.

Proceeding to the merits of the state-law components of the MSB
Owners' administrative expense claims, the bankruptcy court held:

   (1) EP's temporary cessation of production had not terminated
the Leases;

   (2) EP's continued operations on the Leased Premises did not
constitute a trespass; and

   (3) the MSB Owners were not owed damages.

Concluding that the MSB Owners had presented a "futile"
administrative expense claim against EP's estate, the bankruptcy
court denied it.

Affirming the bankruptcy court's disposition, the district court
rejected the MSB Owners' arguments regarding jurisdiction,
abstention, due process, and applicable Texas law. The instant
appeal followed.

On appeal, the MSB Owners challenge the bankruptcy court's
assessments of jurisdiction and the proper application of Texas
substantive law. The panel affirmed both.

According to the panel, "We are satisfied that neither the presence
of state-law issues nor the MSB Owners' preference for a
state-court adjudication of those issues deprived the bankruptcy
court of jurisdiction in this matter. Likewise, neither rendered
the MSB Owners' administration expense claims unripe."

Termination and Release

Both the bankruptcy and district courts rejected the MSB Owners'
lease-termination argument, concluding that EP had satisfied
Paragraph XI(d)'s requirements by resuming production within
approximately 40 days.

On appeal, the MSB Owners argue that the district court-- by
holding that EP could maintain the leases simply by restarting
production, without also commencing drilling or reworking
operations within 120 days of the cessation of production --
rewrites the Lease terms to impermissibly add a third alternative
-- resuming production— that the parties did not include."

The Circuit Judges conclude, "We are not convinced that the
Leases' terms dictated that EP's 40-day market-based cessation of
production would cause the Leases to automatically terminate --
despite the interim resumption of production from fully-functional
existing wells -- unless EP also began (and thereafter diligently
pursued) new drilling or reworking operations within 120 days from
the initial cessation date."

"We agree that EP's failing to commence drilling or reworking
operations within 120 days of ceasing production (for
a period of 40 days because of Spring 2020's unfavorable market
conditions) did not cause the Leases to automatically terminate.
Otherwise, EP would be required to conduct perfunctory, useless
operations that would be of no benefit to either party in order to
avoid losing the lease. If that was the parties' intended result,
it was not sufficiently expressed in their contract. Texas law
requires more certainty. For the reasons stated herein, we affirm."

ESAB CORP: S&P Rates Proposed Senior Unsecured Notes 'BB+'
----------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB+' issue-level rating and '3'
recovery rating to ESAB Corp.'s proposed $1 billion senior
unsecured notes due 2031. The '3' recovery rating indicates its
expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 60%)
recovery in the event of a payment default. ESAB intends to use the
proceeds from these notes, along with new common and preferred
equity and revolver borrowings, to fund its $1.45 billion
acquisition of Eddyfi Technologies. S&P's 'BB+' issue-level rating
and '3' recovery rating on ESAB's $700 million 6.25% senior
unsecured notes due 2029 are unchanged.

S&P said, "The issuance of the notes does not affect our 'BB+'
issuer credit rating on the company as we had already incorporated
an anticipated a $1 billion debt increase into our analysis of
ESAB. The stable outlook reflects that while we forecast S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted leverage will increase modestly above our downside
threshold in 2026, we forecast leverage will return below 3x in
2027. We also expect the company to continue to generate good
levels of FOCF."

ESAB is a global organization that develops, manufactures, and
supplies consumables, welding and cutting products and equipment,
and gas control equipment. The company's products are used for
cutting, joining, and automated welding. With the combination of
Eddyfi, ESAB will create a one-stop shop for its customers as it
expands into post-weld inspection and monitoring technologies. The
company sells its products in a range of different end markets,
including infrastructure, renewables, rail, medical and life
sciences, mobile and off-highway equipment, oil, gas, and general
manufacturing. With the addition of Eddyfi, it will expand into
nuclear, aerospace and defense, and energy infrastructure. Its
sales channels include both independent distributors and direct
salespeople, depending on location and end market.

facility due October 2030, a $350 million senior unsecured term
loan A due October 2030, proposed $1 billion senior unsecured notes
due 2031, and $700 million senior unsecured notes due April 2029.

-- S&P's simulated default contemplates a payment default in 2031,
reflecting a sustained economic downturn that leads to weakness in
ESAB's core end markets. Under this scenario, the resulting weak
volumes and pricing pressure reduce the company's profitability and
cash flow to the point that it can't continue to operate without
filing for bankruptcy.

-- S&P values ESAB on a going-concern basis using a 5.5x multiple
to derive its emergence EBITDA of $361 million. This compares to
its prior valuation of $263 million to include the acquisition of
Eddyfi and contributions from acquisitions completed in 2025. The
5.5x multiple reflects the company's portfolio of brands, global
reach, and good scale.

-- S&P believes that following a payment default, the company
would likely reorganize rather than liquidate.

Simulated default assumptions

-- Simulated year of default: 2031

-- EBITDA multiple: 5.5x

-- EBITDA at emergence: $361 million

-- Jurisdiction: U.S.

-- Debt amounts include six months of accrued interest that S&P
assumes will be owed at default.

-- The revolver is 85% drawn at default.

Simplified waterfall

-- Net enterprise value at default (after 5% administrative
costs): $1.88 billion

-- Valuation split (obligors/nonobligors): 15%/85%

-- Value available to unsecured debt: $1.88 billion ($283 million
collateral/$1.60 billion noncollateral)

-- Senior unsecured debt claims: $2.98 billion

    --Recovery expectations: 50%-70%; rounded estimate: 60%

FF FUND I: Extension of Liquidating Trust's Term Upheld
-------------------------------------------------------
Judge Laurel M. Isicoff of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Florida denied the motion for reconsideration
of the order granting the extension of the term of the FF Fund I,
L.P. Liquidating Trust filed by Andrew Franzone.

The Motion to Reconsider does not raise issues of manifest error or
newly discovered evidence. Rather, the Motion to Reconsider asks
the Court to impose additional conditions on the Liquidating
Trustee with respect to the extension of the term of the
Liquidating Trust. The Court says this relief is not appropriate
for a motion to reconsider, nor would it be appropriate in any
event.

FIRST BRANDS: Must Repay $25MM to Cover Chapter 11 Factor Claims
----------------------------------------------------------------
Vince Sullivan of Law360 reports that on Thursday, March 12, 2026,
a Texas bankruptcy judge directed First Brands Group to return
$25.7 million to a segregated account established for third-party
factoring lenders involved in the company's Chapter 11 case. The
order was intended to safeguard the lenders' collateral.

Factoring lenders had argued that the funds should remain protected
in a designated account to ensure their secured claims are not
diminished during the bankruptcy process. The court agreed that
maintaining the reserve is necessary to provide adequate
protection, the report states.

The ruling requires the company to restore the funds so that
creditors relying on the factoring arrangements retain their
security interests. The decision allows the bankruptcy proceedings
to continue while preserving protections for those lenders,
according to Law360.

FLAGSTAR BANK: Fitch Hikes LongTerm IDR to 'BB+', Outlook Stable
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has upgraded Flagstar Bank, N.A.'s (FLG) Long-Term
Issuer Default Rating (IDR) and Viability Rating (VR) to 'BB+' and
'bb+' from 'BB' and 'bb'. The Rating Outlook remains Stable. Fitch
has also upgraded the long- and sort-term deposit ratings to 'BBB-'
and 'F3' from 'BB+' and B'.

Key Rating Drivers

The upgrade reflects the execution of FLG's balance sheet and
business restructuring, which has resulted in lower loan
concentration, lower wholesale funding and funding costs, and
crucially, a return to profitability, as FLG's earnings and
profitability factor score has been a rating constraint.

Business Transformation Accelerating: Since taking over in 2024,
current management has put forth a coherent strategy to transform
the bank. Initially, management focused on stabilizing the bank
through with a better credit risk understanding, deposit
stabilization and balance sheet streamlining by shedding non-core
businesses. In 2025, FLG built out key regional commercial and
corporate banking verticals, with quarterly C&I originations rising
to $2.1 billion in 4Q25 from $542 million in 4Q24. Fitch believes
FLG's business profile would improve with greater revenue
diversity; noninterest income currently equals about 16% of
operating revenue, lower than regional bank peers.

Progress on De-risking: While CRE concentration remains higher than
peers, FLG made significant strides in lowering its concentration
to 365% of risk-based capital, down from 471% at YE 2024, adding
greater loan diversity with new C&I lending segments, while running
off CRE loans. FLG has strengthened its loan monitoring and risk
rating framework, allowing it to more accurately assess and
provision for risks in the portfolio. Fitch views mitigation of the
material weakness identified in early 2024 as largely complete.

Asset Quality Likely to Improve: Consistent with Fitch's
expectation, FLG's impaired loans ratio increased through 2025,
ending the year at 4.9%, up from 4.4% in 2024. With nonaccrual loan
balances peaking in 3Q25, asset quality has likely reached an
inflection point as both net charge-offs and criticized and
classified loans have declined since Fitch's last review. The
expected resolution of a large credit relationship in bankruptcy,
at par, in 1Q26, will likely account for about 45% of the
anticipated $1 billion reduction in nonaccrual loans in 2026,
potentially reducing nonaccruals by about one third, all else
equal. However, as this illustrates, large credit exposures could
introduce greater asset quality volatility.

Return to Profitability: FLG's return to profitability in 4Q25 was
a critical milestone, as it met management's timeline. Achieving
this was the principal driver for FLG's rating upgrade as it was a
rating constraint under the weakest link principal. Achievement of
this milestone increases the credibility of a return to
profitability which is more typical of regional bank peers in 2027.
It also supports expectations of sustained and improving
profitability in 2026 as net interest margin continues to expand,
efficiency improves, and provisions continue to normalize.

Capital Levels Higher: Risk-weighted asset attrition has resulted
in rising capital levels. At 12.83%, FLG's CET1 ratio exceeded
Fitch's 2025 base case expectation and is higher than peers. While
FLGs risk profile has improved, Fitch views risks as more elevated
than those of higher-rated peers, given its concentrated loan
portfolio, warranting higher capital levels. Management's bias
toward holding higher capital levels with a preference for
deploying capital into loan growth rather than stock repurchases,
is therefore appropriate. Absent stock repurchases, Fitch expects
capital levels to remain higher than peers, with the return to
profitability supporting internal capital generation.

Funding Profile in Transition: FLG continues to make strides in
remixing its funding, considerably lowering its reliance on
wholesale funding and brokered deposits. Deposits have also become
less concentrated, and the bank maintains significant on-balance
sheet liquidity. Balancing these improvements, FLG's
loan-to-deposit ratio, cost of funds, and use of noncore deposits
remain higher than higher-rated peers. Over time, the deposit mix
is likely to improve as the bank executes a relationship-driven
strategy that should yield lower-cost deposits, such as commercial
operating accounts.

Rating Sensitivities

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- A sustained increase in the impaired loan ratio or an increase in
the ratio of loan loss provisions as a share of gross loans above
YE 2025 levels;

- A decrease in CET1 capital below 10.0% without a credible plan to
increase levels above this threshold;

- An inability to attract and retain core deposit funding, or
increased reliance on wholesale funding as exhibited by a
loan-to-deposit ratio sustained above 115%.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- A return to sustained run rate profitability consistent with
investment grade benchmark levels;

- An improved risk profile with materially lower CRE concentration
while maintaining or increasing capital levels;

- A sustained reduction in funding costs and wholesale funding
reliance could support positive rating action assuming a return to
profitability;

- A return to an investment grade rating would entail sustained
execution of the bank's business plan, maintenance of robust risk
controls, a return to stable profitability, and capital levels in
line with higher rated regional bank peers.

OTHER DEBT AND ISSUER RATINGS: KEY RATING DRIVERS

Deposit Ratings

FLG's long-term deposit rating of 'BBB-' is one notch higher than
the bank's Long-Term IDR because U.S. uninsured deposits benefit
from depositor preference. U.S. depositor preference gives deposit
liabilities superior recovery prospects in the event of default.
The short-term deposit rating of 'F3' is mapped to the long-term
deposit rating of 'BBB-' in accordance with Fitch's bank rating
criteria.

Subordinated Debt and Other Hybrid Ratings

Subordinated debt and other hybrid securities subordinated debt and
other hybrid capital issued by FLG are all notched down from its
viability rating (VR) in accordance with Fitch's assessment of each
instrument's respective non-performance and relative loss severity
risk profiles, which vary considerably.

FLG's subordinated debt rating of 'BB' reflects one notch of loss
severity. In accordance with Fitch's bank rating criteria, this
reflects alternate notching to the base case of two notches due to
Fitch's view of U.S. regulators' resolution alternatives for an
entity like FLG, as well as early intervention options available to
banking regulators under U.S. law.

The preferred stock rating of 'B' includes two notches for loss
severity given the securities' deep subordination in the capital
structure, and two notches for non-performance, given that the
coupon of the securities is noncumulative and fully discretionary.

Government Support Rating

FLG GSR is rated 'ns', and there is limited likelihood that these
ratings will change over the foreseeable future.

OTHER DEBT AND ISSUER RATINGS: RATING SENSITIVITIES

Deposit Ratings

The long- and short-term deposit ratings are sensitive to any
change to FLG's Long-Term IDR.

Subordinated Debt and Other Hybrid Ratings

FLG's subordinated debt and preferred stock ratings are sensitive
to any change to either the VR or its view of loss severity under a
resolution scenario.

Government Support Rating: FLG's GSR is rated 'ns', and there is
limited likelihood that the rating will change in the foreseeable
future.

VR ADJUSTMENTS

The business profile score of 'bb+' is below the 'a' category
implied score due to the following adjustment reason(s):

historical and future developments (negative). The asset quality
score of 'bb+' is below the 'a' category implied score due to the
following adjustment reason(s): concentrations (negative).

The capitalization & leverage score of 'bbb-' is below the 'a'
category implied score due to the following adjustment reason(s):
risk profile and business model (negative).

The funding & liquidity score of 'bb+' is below the 'a' category
implied score due to the following adjustment reason(s):
non-deposit funding (negative).

FLINZ HOLDINGS: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to April 3
-----------------------------------------------------------
Flinz Holdings LLC asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern
District of Texas to extend its exclusivity periods to file a plan
of reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to April 3 and June
2, 2026, respectively.

The Debtor is operating its business and managing its affairs as
Debtor-in-Possession pursuant to Sections 1107 and 1108 of the
Bankruptcy Code. The Petition Date was November 4, 2025.

Consequently, this case has been pending for just four months. The
Debtor is paying its bills as they come due and has made
substantial progress in what it expects to be a consensual plan of
reorganization.

The Debtor explains that it is working in good faith toward its
reorganization and rather than file a "placeholder" plan, Debtor
seeks a brief extension to finalize the terms of its plan and move
this Chapter 11 case toward confirmation.

The Debtor submits that it is close in finalizing the terms of such
plan of reorganization with multiple involved parties and does not
anticipate seeking a further extension of such deadlines.

FLYING HORSE 2: Moody's Downgrades Issuer & GOLT Ratings to Ba3
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has downgraded Flying Horse Metropolitan District
2, CO's issuer rating to Ba3 from A2 and general obligation limited
tax (GOLT) rating to Ba3 from A3. The district has about $56
million in GOLT debt outstanding.

This action concludes a review for possible downgrade that was
initiated on Dec. 09, 2025 in conjunction with the release of the
US Special Purpose Districts methodology.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba3 issuer rating reflects the district's narrow available fund
balance to liabilities ratio and, reserves and liquidity. In
absolute dollar terms, the district's reserves are very thin,
totaling roughly $111,000 or about 2.2% of revenue, which is one of
the lowest compared to rated peers. This nominal amount in
comparison to $56.5 million of outstanding liabilities is an
extremely weak 0.2%, and is a challenge compared to peers.
Furthermore, the district's outstanding subordinate cash flow bonds
will continue to absorb surplus revenues, limiting future reserve
accumulation. The very modest reserve position provides little
capacity to absorb any revenue disruptions.

Fiscal 2025 estimates indicate a use of debt service fund reserves
which will further weaken the district's financial position. The
fiscal 2026 budget projects that financial levels will remain weak,
with debt service fund revenues sufficient only to cover total debt
service requirements. The district expects to consolidate with the
homeowners association (HOA) in fiscal 2027 and will take on all
operations and maintenance responsibilities in the district. While
the district expects the consolidation will generate cost savings
and additional revenue, the successful execution of the
consolidation and likelihood of additional reserve accumulation
remain uncertain. The rating further incorporates the district's
limited scale of operations and weakness due to its governance
structure given there are limited managerial resources available to
react quickly to unexpected revenue declines or event risks.  

The Ba-category issuer rating is supported by the district's large
tax base that exhibits a strong growth trend which will continue as
the remaining undeveloped acreage is built out. Resident income is
average at approximately 108% of the US median. The district's 4.0%
long-term liabilities to full value ratio is moderate but should
continue to improve with continued tax base growth and given a lack
of issuance plans.

The Ba3 rating on the district's GOLT debt is the same as the
issuer rating and reflects the sufficient headroom under the
maximum millage available to pay debt service.

RATING OUTLOOK

Moody's do not assign outlooks to local government issuers with
this amount of debt outstanding.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Trend of surplus operations resulting in available fund balance
and/or liquidity ratios at 25% or higher

-- Improved available fund balance to long-term liabilities
approaching20% of revenue

-- Reduced liabilities relative to and full value

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Erosion of reserves resulting in weaker financial ratios beyond
current levels

-- Additional debt issuance materially raising long-term
liabilities relative to full value to levels well above 4%

PROFILE

The district currently contains approximately 1,083 acres and is
located in the City of Colorado Springs, near Fort Carson, Peterson
and Schriever Air Force bases, and the Air Force Academy. The
district independently owns, operates and funds the parks and open
spaces within its borders. The development is within the boundaries
of El Paso County School District 20 (Academy), CO.

METHODOLOGY

The principal methodology used in these ratings was US Special
Purpose Districts published in December 2025.

FORTIS 333: Fitch Affirms 'B+' LongTerm IDR, Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed Fortis 333, Inc.'s (dba ALTA Performance
Materials) Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at 'B+' and the
company's first lien term loans and revolver at 'BB-' with a
Recovery Rating of 'RR3'. The Rating Outlook is Stable.

The rating reflects ALTA's global position as a top-three leader in
the composites market, specialty products that foster sticky
customer relationships, and its ability to generate positive FCF.
These factors are balanced by a moderately high leverage profile
and material exposure to the cyclical construction and consumer
marine end markets.

The Stable Outlook reflects Fitch's expectation that EBITDA
leverage will decline to below 5.5x throughout the forecast
period.

Key Rating Drivers

Resilient Performance Amid Soft Demand: Performance remains in line
with expectations. Volumes declined in the first three quarters due
to soft demand in building & construction and transportation, but
3Q25 improved financially, and volume pressure was partially offset
by increased customer wins in infrastructure and electrification.
EBITDA expanded as pricing and procurement offset lower volumes.
Modest revenue and EBITDA growth are expected, driven primarily by
pricing and procurement initiatives and a moderation of the soft
demand environment.

Strong Position in Niche Market: ALTA's position as a top-three
global composite resin producer, with significant market share in
North America and Europe, is a key credit strength. Industry
consolidation has reduced capacity, enhancing pricing power and
barriers to entry. ALTA's specialization in differentiated and
standard resins supports earnings stability, but its limited scale
and diversification compared with broader chemical peers may
constrain further growth and margin expansion.

Customer Stickiness and Cost Pass-Through: ALTA benefits from
long-term customer relationships, as its products are often
integrated into client processes, resulting in moderate-to-high
switching costs. This entrenched customer base enhances pricing
flexibility and creates opportunities to pass through input cost
increases, supporting margin resilience during periods of elevated
inflation. The company's ability to increase EBITDA margins to the
20% range by 2025 underscores the strength of these relationships
and Fortis' effective pricing strategies.

Moderately High Leverage: EBITDA leverage is forecast to average
around 5.5x, with debt repayments and modest EBITDA growth expected
to reduce leverage to approximately 5.1x by 2028. This represents a
meaningful improvement from post-carve-out levels and remains
within Fitch's rating sensitivities. Fitch assumes debt reduction
from FCF over the next two years will drive deleveraging.

Robust Cash Generation: ALTA's cash generation is strong, with
pre-dividend free cash flow expected to exceed USD 50 million
annually despite substantial interest expense. The asset-light
model and minimal maintenance capex support low fixed costs. Robust
FCF provides flexibility for capital allocation, including
potential M&A, growth capex, or sponsor distributions.

Cyclicality Considerations: ALTA has maintained profitability
through recent economic stress; however, exposure to cyclical end
markets such as consumer marine, recreational vehicles, and
construction increases earnings volatility risk. Fitch notes
exposure to corrosion and infrastructure end markets partially
mitigates this volatility.

Peer Analysis

Relative to rated peers, ALTA's revenue scale is smaller than both
Bakelite US Holdco Inc. (BB-/Negative) and W.R. Grace Holdings LLC
(B/Stable). The company's specialty products position EBITDA
margins favorably compared with Bakelite, while being in a similar
range as W.R. Grace. Following the elevated leverage in 2025 due to
the carveout, ALTA's EBITDA leverage trends toward the low-5.0x
range in the forecast, which compares favorably with its peers.

Fitch’s Key Rating-Case Assumptions

- Low-single-digit organic revenue growth each year supported by
electrification and AI data center trend.

- Modest margin expansion driven by pricing and procurement
initiatives

- Capex in line with management guidance.

- Fitch assumes debt reduction from FCF over the next two years to
drive deleveraging.

Corporate Rating Tool Inputs and Scores

Fitch scored the issuer as follows, using its Corporate Rating Tool
(CRT) to produce the Standalone Credit Profile (SCP):

- Business and financial profile factors (assessment, relative
importance): Management (bb, Moderate), Sector Characteristics (bb,
Lower), Market and Competitive Positioning (bb-, Higher),
Diversification and Asset Quality (bb, Moderate), Company
Operational Characteristics (bb+, Moderate), Profitability (bbb+,
Lower), Financial Structure (b-, Higher), and Financial Flexibility
(b+, Moderate).

- The quantitative financial subfactors are based on custom CRT
financial period parameters: 50% weight for the forecast year 2026
and 50% for the forecast year 2027.

- B+ to CC considerations apply in its analysis and result in no
adjustment.

- The Governance assessment of 'Good' results in no adjustment.

- The Operating Environment assessment of 'aa-' results in no
adjustment.

- The SCP is 'b+'.

Recovery Analysis

The recovery analysis assumes that ALTA would be reorganized as a
going concern (GC) in bankruptcy rather than liquidated. Fitch has
assumed a 10% administrative claim.

Going-Concern Approach

Fitch projects ALTA' going-concern EBITDA (GC EBITDA) to be $135
million. The GC EBITDA estimate reflects Fitch's view of a
sustainable, post-reorganization EBITDA level, upon which it bases
the enterprise valuation. The GC EBITDA specifically represents a
recovery following a hypothetical default scenario. This scenario
is triggered by a sustained economic contraction, leading to
material declines in volumes and profitability in more cyclical
end-markets like construction and marine.

An enterprise value multiple of 6x EBITDA is applied to the GC
EBITDA to calculate a post-reorganization enterprise value. This
multiple was chosen based on historical bankruptcy case study exit
multiples for peer companies. Fitch also took into consideration
ALTA's strong position in the consolidated composites market.

The revolving credit facility is assumed to be fully drawn. Fitch's
recovery assumptions result in a Recovery Rating for the senior
secured debt within the 'RR3' range and results in a 'BB-' rating.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- EBITDA Leverage durably above 5.5x;

- Deterioration in EBITDA margins toward the mid-teens, potentially
driven by operating inefficiencies or the inability to pass-through
raw material costs;

- Large debt-funded acquisitions or aggressive sponsor distribution
policies.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- EBITDA Leverage durably below 4.5x;

- Material increase in size, scale or diversification, while
maintaining conservative credit metrics.

Liquidity and Debt Structure

Fitch expects ALTA to maintain adequate liquidity throughout the
forecast period. With ALTA's cash on hand, and access to the EUR
200 million revolver, the company can effectively manage its
liquidity requirements of minimal capex and 1% amortization on the
U.S. dollar term loan.

Issuer Profile

ALTA is a leading global manufacturer of unsaturated polyester
resins (UPR), vinyl ester resins (VER), and gelcoats for a wide
range of applications including construction, marine, and
transport.

MACROECONOMIC ASSUMPTIONS AND SECTOR FORECASTS

Fitch's latest quarterly Global Corporates Sector Forecasts Monitor
data file which aggregates key data points used in its credit
analysis. Fitch's macroeconomic forecasts, commodity price
assumptions, default rate forecasts, sector key performance
indicators and sector-level forecasts are among the data items
included.

Climate Vulnerability Signals

The results of its Climate.VS screener did not indicate an elevated
risk for Fortis 333, Inc.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.

FTX TRADING: Bid to Amend Farmington, et al., Case Granted in Part
------------------------------------------------------------------
Chief Judge Karen B. Owens of the U.S. Bankrupty Court for the
District of Delaware granted in part and denied in part FTX
Recovery Trust's motion  for leave to file a second amended
complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(a)(1) in
the adversary proceeding captioned as FTX RECOVERY TRUST,
Plaintiff, v. FARMINGTON STATE CORPORATION (f/k/a FARMINGTON STATE
BANK, d/b/a) GENIOME BANK, d/b/a MOONSTONE BANK), FBH CORPORATION,
and JEAN CHALOPIN, Defendants, Adv. Proc. 24-50197 (Bankr. D.
Del.).

In the MTD Order, the Court dismissed the FAC's constructive
fraudulent transfer claims against defendants FBH Corporation and
Farmington Bank for Plaintiff's failure to allege lack of
reasonably equivalent value. The Court dismissed the FAC's
constructive fraudulent transfer claims against individual
defendant Jean Chalopin for the additional reason of Plaintiff's
failure to allege that Chalopin was a transferee as required by
Section 550 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Court dismissed the FAC's
remaining claims for aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty
and aiding and abetting corporate waste for Plaintiff's failure to
allege knowing participation. In the proposed Second Amended
Complaint ("SAC"), Plaintiff asserts the same claims as the FAC but
has removed Farmington as a defendant.

Defendants argue that Plaintiff's proposed amendments to its
constructive fraudulent transfer claims fail to correct the
previous pleading deficiencies regarding lack of reasonably
equivalent value. The Court disagrees. In the FAC, Plaintiff
alleged that the challenged transfer lacked reasonably equivalent
value primarily because Alameda paid $11.5 million for a 10%
interest in FBH, which only had a current value of $5.7 million.
But Plaintiff also alleged in the FAC that the investment may have
produced significant future value for Alameda, thereby suggesting
that the challenged transfer was given for reasonably equivalent
value. The SAC resolves this pleading problem by adding facts to
clarify that the investment had little to no chance of generating a
positive return from the start, and that it was effectively a gift
from FTX to a longtime business partner. According to the Court,
while the Plaintiff will ultimately need to establish the truth of
its allegations, the SAC includes enough factual information to
allow the claims to survive a motion to dismiss. Therefore, the
Court concludes that the amendments proposed with respect to Counts
I and III are not futile and that Plaintiff is permitted to amend
its complaint accordingly.

Defendants also argue that the Motion should be denied for the
independent reason that Plaintiff has had multiple opportunities to
state its claims and was previously given notice of its pleading
deficiencies but failed to cure them. The Court agrees.

The Motion is granted with respect to Counts I and III of the SAC.
The remainder of the relief requested in the Motion is denied.

FTX TRADING: Feds Oppose Sam Bankman-Fried's New Trial Bid
----------------------------------------------------------
Aislinn Keely of Law360 reports that federal prosecutors have
opposed a request for a new trial filed by Sam Bankman-Fried, the
convicted founder of the failed cryptocurrency platform FTX. They
argued that the motion seeks to revive narratives suggesting the
exchange was solvent and that the prosecution was politically
motivated.

Bankman-Fried submitted the request on his own behalf, asserting
that the case against him was driven by political retaliation.
Prosecutors dismissed those claims, stating that the evidence
presented during trial clearly demonstrated that FTX suffered from
severe financial problems and misused customer funds, according to
report.

In their response, prosecutors said the motion provides no
legitimate basis for a retrial. Instead, they described it as an
attempt to reframe arguments that had already been rejected by the
court during the original proceedings, the report states.

                           *     *     *

FTX Trading emerged from Chapter 11 on Jan. 3, 2025. FTX's $14+
billion Chapter 11 reorganization plan was approved by U.S.
Bankruptcy Judge John Dorsey in Delaware in October 2024. The Plan
underpins a string of novel settlements with governmental
authorities and non-U.S. insolvency trustees, clearing the way for
FTX to return to all non-governmental creditors substantially more
than 100% of the amount normally due under the Bankruptcy Code.
These include:

     -- a consensual settlement with all major FTX customer and
creditor groups, avoiding the inter-creditor litigation that has
plagued other major bankruptcies;

     -- a resolution of the $24 billion in claims filed by the IRS
for periods prior to the Chapter 11 cases in return for a $200
million cash payment and a $685 million subordinated claim;

     -- agreements with the CFTC and state attorneys' general to
subordinate their claims to the payment of non-governmental
creditors and with the DOJ over how $1.2 billion of forfeiture
proceeds may be distributed to customers and creditors; and

     -- a court-approved $875 million settlement with BlockFi,
FTX's largest creditor.

The FTX estate has distributed $7.1 billion to creditors through
early 2026, with another round expected in January 2026.


FULLER'S SERVICE: Trustee Gets Extension to Access Cash Collateral
------------------------------------------------------------------
N. Neville Reid, the Chapter 11 trustee for Fuller's Service Center
Inc., received another extension from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Northern District of Illinois to use cash collateral to fund
operations.

The court authorized the trustee to use the cash collateral of
secured creditors from March 2 to May 17 to pay the Debtor's
expenses set forth in its budget, subject to a 10% variance. It
also authorized the trustee to utilize the Debtor's line of credit
facility with Cornerstone National Bank & Trust Company.

The secured creditors that assert an interest in the cash
collateral are Cornerstone National Bank & Trust Company, the U.S.
Small Business Administration, the SBA's assignee Seaver Business
Acquisition, LLC, and Carroll's, LLC (doing business as National
Tire Wholesale).

As protection, the secured creditors will be granted security
interests in the Debtor's post-petition assets and the proceeds
thereof, with the same priority and extent as their pre-bankruptcy
liens.

In addition, Cornerstone will be granted a "superpriority" claim,
with priority over all other liens and claims for unpaid
post-petition funds advanced. It will receive repayment first
before other creditors, including administrative claimants.

The order is available at https://is.gd/yiSe8U from
PacerMonitor.com.

The court previously authorized the Debtor to use Heartland Bank &
Trust Company's cash collateral and line of credit facility from
Feb. 22 through March 11 to fund operating and administrative
expenses. The Heartland credit line has now been terminated and
replaced by Cornerstone's $250,000 line, secured by a first
mortgage on commercial property and a first lien on all business
assets.

                 About Fuller's Service Center Inc.

LLC.

The Debtor is permitted, but not required, to pay OHP
$1,032,595.14. However, the Court is not making any finding that
this amount satisfies a mortgage held by OHP.

GARDNER-WEBB UNIVERSITY: Moody's Affirms Ba1 Issuer & Bond Ratings
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has affirmed Gardner-Webb University's (NC) (GWU)
Ba1 issuer and revenue bond ratings. Total debt outstanding as of
fiscal year end 2025 (June 30) was about $16 million. The outlook
is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Affirmation of GWU's Ba1 issuer rating incorporates its manageable
leverage with total cash and investments covering total adjusted
debt by an excellent 5.7x, while total debt to EBIDA was just 3.7x
in fiscal 2025.  Total cash and investments of $92 million provides
good coverage of operating expenses at 1.4x. Although operating
performance is narrow, with an EBIDA margin of just 6.6% in fiscal
2025, GWU has a track record of good expense discipline. Based upon
preliminary guidance provided by management, Moody's expects fiscal
2026 operating performance will be modestly improved relative to
2025. Liquidity, which narrowed in recent years and was just 84
days in fiscal 2025, is expected to rebound in fiscal 2026 driven
by the receipt of over $6 million of federal pandemic employee
retention credits.

Other offsetting credit factors include a highly competitive
student market landscape in North Carolina, with many strong and
low-cost public institutions and a high proportion of
price-sensitive students. These factors have contributed to
pressured enrollment and limited pricing power. Additionally, a
concentrated revenue base (76%) in student derived charges makes
the university more sensitive to fluctuations in enrollment while a
relatively small scale of operations constrains the potential for
ongoing cost reductions. Although the university has no near-term
plans for additional debt, an elevated age of plant at 21 years
could signal the potential need for future capital investment.

Affirmation of the Ba1 rating on the university's outstanding
revenue bonds incorporates the university's credit quality, pledge
of unrestricted revenue, mortgage on certain campus facilities and
a debt service reserve fund.

RATING OUTLOOK

The stable outlook is predicated on improvement in unrestricted
liquidity as well as expectations of sufficient EBIDA to cover debt
service.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Demonstrated strengthening of brand and strategic positioning
reflected by improved student demand, philanthropy and net tuition
revenue growth

-- Substantial increase in total wealth relative to debt and
expenses, currently at 5.7x and 1.4x, respectively

-- Sustained improvement in operating performance including EBIDA
margin and debt service coverage

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Significant deterioration in operating performance leading to a
reduction in the headroom above the debt service coverage covenant
or a violation of the covenant

-- Substantial increase in financial leverage absent growing
wealth or revenue in support of debt service

-- Total wealth to operating expenses falls below 1x or inability
to increase unrestricted liquidity

PROFILE

Gardner-Webb University is a small, private Christian university
with its primary campus situated about 50 miles west of Charlotte.
Originally founded in 1905, GWU is a Baptist affiliated university
that offers undergraduate, graduate and doctoral level programming.
The university also serves a relatively large cohort of degree
completion students. Total FTE enrollment for fall 2025 was over
2,600, and fiscal 2025 operating revenue totaled approximately $66
million.

METHODOLOGY

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Higher
Education published in July 2024.


GENESIS HEALTHCARE: Plan Exclusivity Period Extended to April 17
----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Stacey G. Jernigan of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Texas extended Genesis Healthcare, Inc., and
its affiliates' exclusive periods to file a plan of reorganization
and obtain acceptance thereof to April 17, 2026.

As shared by Troubled Company Reporter, the Debtors claim that the
extension of the Exclusive Periods will ensure that they have a
full and fair opportunity to continue to negotiate, revise, amend,
and file their proposed plan and disclosure statement as necessary
following those discussions and negotiations with various parties
without the distraction, cost, and delay of a competing plan
process. Accordingly, the Debtors submit that this factor weighs in
favor of extending the Exclusive Periods.

The Debtors cite that they have made and will continue to make
timely payments on their undisputed post-petition obligations in
the ordinary course, meaning that the requested extension of the
Exclusive Periods will not prejudice the legitimate interests of
post-petition creditors. As such, this factor also weighs in favor
of extending the Exclusive Periods.

The Debtors note that they have no ulterior motive in seeking an
extension of the Exclusive Periods, nor are they seeking an
extension of the Exclusive Periods to pressure or prejudice any of
their stakeholders. To the contrary, the Debtors are requesting a
further extension of the Exclusive Periods to allow for additional
time to engage with and ideally resolve any plan-related disputes
with the Committee and other creditors prior to filing their
proposed chapter 11 plan and disclosure statement, free from
distraction or competing plan proposals.

The Debtors believe that they have reasonable prospects for
proposing, confirming, and consummating a viable chapter 11 plan
following good faith discussions with the Committee regarding the
same. The Debtors are currently in the process of finalizing a
proposed chapter 11 plan and disclosure statement, with the goal of
obtaining consensus across constituencies in advance of filing.

The Debtors assert that they currently face hundreds, if not
thousands, of unresolved personal injury, wrongful death, and other
tort claims filed by current and former residents of their
facilities (or representatives thereof), for which the Debtors have
established and implemented Court-approved unliquidated claims
procedures. The existence of such unresolved contingencies weighs
in favor of granting the requested extension of the Exclusive
Periods.

GLENWOOD CAVERNS: Can Appeal $116MM Verdict While in Bankruptcy
---------------------------------------------------------------
Ben Zigterman of Law360 Bankruptcy Authority reports that on
Wednesday, March 11, 2026, a Delaware bankruptcy judge cleared the
way for Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park’s owner to appeal a $116
million wrongful death judgment in Colorado state court. The ruling
came after the judgment forced the company to file for Chapter 11
bankruptcy protection.

The case involved allegations of negligence related to an accident
at the park. Faced with the sizable verdict, the company sought
Chapter 11 relief to protect its operations and evaluate options
for addressing the financial obligations stemming from the lawsuit,
the report states.

The court's approval of the state court appeal provides a path for
the company to contest the judgment while remaining under
bankruptcy protection. A successful appeal could significantly
reduce the financial strain on the park and its owner, according to
report.

GOEASY LTD: S&P Downgrades ICR to 'B-' on Covenant Breach
---------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its issuer credit and issue ratings on
Goeasy Ltd. (GSY) to 'B-' from 'BB-'. S&P also placed the ratings
on CreditWatch with negative implications.

The CreditWatch negative listing reflects that S&P could downgrade
the company if it's unable to negotiate waivers, amendments, or
similar agreements with its secured lenders.

GSY expects to breach certain financial covenants currently
applicable to its syndicated credit facility and to certain other
secured debt.

The company plans to enter into amendments, waivers, or other
agreements to address the anticipated financial covenant breaches
before reporting its fourth-quarter results on March 26, 2026.

The three-notch downgrade reflects GSY's expected breach of
financial covenants currently applicable to its syndicated credit
facility and certain other secured debt, as well as its May 2026
unsecured debt maturity. On March 10, 2026, GSY announced that a
sharp, unexpected increase in net charge-offs and loan-loss
provisions will cause it to breach certain financial covenants
currently applicable under its syndicated credit facility,
securitization facilities, and receivables purchase arrangements.
The company, which changed its CEO and CFO in September 2025 and
January 2026, respectively, is discussing with lenders and the
counterparties under its securitization facilities and receivables
purchase agreements and anticipates entering into amendments,
waivers, or other agreements to address the anticipated covenant
breaches on or before its Q4 2025 reporting.

In addition, as of Sept. 30, 2025, GSY had $303.1 million of
unrestricted cash compared with its upcoming maturity of $90
million in senior unsecured notes due May 2026. To shore up
additional liquidity, the company has suspended share buybacks and
dividend payouts. The company is also reducing auto and powersports
originations through LendCare's merchant channels.

The deterioration in asset quality will cause the company's net
charge-offs to loans to rise close to 13% for 2025, well above our
previously expected range of 8%-10%. GSY expects to report
incremental charge-offs of $178 million and a write-down of $55
million of loan interest and fees related to loans within its
LendCare segment, primarily from auto and powersport categories.
This will lower reported book equity to about $1.0 billion from
$1.2 billion as of Sept. 30, 2025.

Additionally, the company expects its net charge-off rate to
increase to the mid-double-digit area in 2026 and to decline in
2027.

As a result of higher charge-offs, GSY expects a net increase in
allowance for credit losses on gross consumer loans receivable in
the quarter of approximately $86 million, compared with the
existing $441 million of allowance reported as of Sept. 30, 2025.
Even after the additional provision, the company's loan-loss
reserve will be about 10% of receivables, which is well below the
expected mid-double-digit charge-offs in 2026.

S&P said, "We now expect leverage, as measured by debt to adjusted
total equity, to be more than 4.5x. On pro forma basis, GSY's
leverage will be around 5.0x, versus 4.0x as of Sept. 30, 2025, and
3.2x as of Dec. 31, 2024. We expect leverage will remain at
4.5x-6.5x as the company focuses on expanding its unsecured and
home equity lending business while addressing its troubled secured
Lendcare receivables. We anticipate that the company will continue
to book additional reserves for most of 2026 and that its book
equity will decline sharply from existing levels.

"We rate GSY's senior unsecured notes 'B-', in line with the new
issuer credit rating.

"The negative CreditWatch listing reflects the likelihood of a
downgrade by one or more notches if the company is unable to
negotiate waivers, amendments, or similar agreements with its
secured creditors. We look to resolve the CreditWatch based on the
outcome of the negotiations and the company addressing its upcoming
unsecured maturity in May."


GOLIATH VENTURES: Prestige's Request for Receiver Denied
--------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Gregory A. Presnell of the U.S. District Court for the
Middle District of Florida, Orlando Division, entered an agreed
order denying, without prejudice, Prestige Florida Property
Investment, LLC's emergency motion for immediate appointment of
receiver for Goliath Ventures, Inc. (Florida), Goliath Ventures,
Inc. (Wyoming) and Christopher Delgado, individuals Christopher
Delgado, Jonathan Mason, Eric Clayman, and Blackblock Management
Solutions, LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company. The request is
denied as premature.

Prestige Florida claims that Christopher Delgado was arrested only
one week ago on a complaint charging him with money laundering and
wire fraud associated with the alleged operation of a Ponzi
scheme.

Prestige Florida alleges that Delgado is prohibited by Court order
from communicating with Goliath employees, has surrendered his
passport, has an ankle monitor, is prohibited from making
unauthorized financial transactions, and has agreed to cooperate
with the repatriation of considerable assets from overseas
locations, including Dubai.

According to the Court, significant safeguards have already been
put in place to protect whatever assets Delgado and the other
Defendants maintain control over, and among other factors, the
availability of less "extraordinary equitable remed[ies]" (such as
petitioning for restitution in the criminal case) counsel against
this drastic approach. Indeed, it would undoubtedly cause more harm
than good for this Court to step in and appoint a receiver at the
nascence of these still-emerging criminal and civil fraud cases.

                  About Goliath Ventures, Inc.

Goliath Ventures, Inc. is a cryptocurrency investment firm accused
of running a Ponzi scheme. Goliath solicited millions of dollars
from investors, promising “guaranteed” monthly returns of 4%
(48% annually), or more, generated through purported cryptocurrency
"liquidity pools." Christopher Delgado is the company's CEO.

Goliath Ventures is facing a lawsuit captioned as Prestige Florida
Property Investment LLC v. Goliath Ventures, Inc., Case No.
6:26-cv-00392 (M.D. Fla.), before the Hon. Gregory A. Presnell. The
case was filed on Feb. 18, 2026.

GRAND SLAM: Gets Court OK to Solicit Reorganization Plan Vote
-------------------------------------------------------------
Rick Archer of Law360 reports that on Thursday, March 12, 2026, a
Delaware judge approved the next step in the Chapter 11 case of a
startup professional track-and-field league founded by an Olympic
medalist, allowing the company to circulate its equity-swap
reorganization plan to creditors for a vote. The decision marks a
key milestone in the league's effort to restructure its finances.

Several creditors had urged the court to block the plan from moving
forward, arguing it treated them unfairly and offered insufficient
recovery. The judge, however, concluded that those concerns did not
justify stopping the plan from being considered by creditors, the
report states.

With the court's approval, the league can now formally solicit
votes on the proposed restructuring. The outcome of that vote will
determine whether the company can proceed toward confirmation of
its Chapter 11 plan, according to report.

HARBOR FREIGHT: Moody's Alters Outlook on 'B1' CFR to Stable
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings changed Harbor Freight Tools USA, Inc.'s (HFT)
outlook to stable from negative. At the same time, Moody's affirmed
HFT's corporate family rating at B1, its probability of default
rating at B1-PD and its senior secured bank credit facility rating
due 2031 at B2.

The change in outlook to stable and B1 CFR affirmation reflect
HFT's progress in reducing its sourcing exposure to China and its
ability to lower selling general and administrative costs in the
face of an uncertain US trade policy. Although improvement in
product costs will lag as inventories purchased at higher tariff
levels are sold, Moody's expects HFT to manage debt/EBITDA to
remain well below Moody's threshold of 5.0x. Moody's forecasts
debt/EBITDA will peak, approaching 4.5x during the first half of
fiscal year end June 2027. The affirmations also reflect HFT's good
liquidity, given its large asset based revolving credit facility
and excess inventory, and that financial policy will remain
supportive under its founder owner. Moody's also expects HFT's to
be able to continue to rationalize its cost base and lower capital
investments as needed to support its profitability and liquidity
position. Moody's projects Debt/EBITDA of 4.1.x and EBITA/Interest
of 2.4x at the end of fiscal 2026 relative to debt/EBITDA of 3.3x
and EBITA/itnerest of 3.6x at LTM October 31, 2025.

RATINGS RATIONALE

HFT's B1 CFR reflects its unique niche in providing value priced
tools and equipment, which has historically resulted in continued
revenue growth and an ability to attract new customers. HFT's
business strategy of direct sourcing proprietary brands has driven
its ability to price product at relatively lower price points
compared to its competitors. The company's product offering is well
positioned in an environment where customers are focused on value.
Nonetheless, its dependence on imported product, with primary
countries including China and Vietnam, has required the company to
diversify its sourcing model and reduce costs. Tariff rates, prior
to the Supreme Court ruling, were well beyond ones absorbed in
2018. HFT has been working to reduce its reliance on China and has
also increased its range of products to include items that can not
only meet the needs of the DIY customers but also the professional
contractor.

The rating also reflects governance considerations including its
commitment to net funded leverage (as defined by the company)
remaining between 2.5-3.5x and the prioritization of debt reduction
over future dividends. HFT has good liquidity as its $1.6 billion
ABL due 2029 had $1.29 billion available at October 31, 2025 with
$290 million outstanding. HFT is also relatively more modest in
scale when compared to the larger home improvement and auto-parts
retailers, and has a more narrow product offering.

The stable outlook reflects that HFT can continue to diversify its
sourcing strategy as it manages its capital plans, pricing model
and cost structure in the face of uncertain US trade policy. The
outlook also reflects a commitment to a conservative financial
policies and the maintenance of at least good liquidity including
positive free cash flow.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

Factors that could result in an upgrade would require consistent
organic sales and operating income growth with operating margins in
line with historical levels. An upgrade would also require a
conservative financial policy that prioritizes maintaining good
liquidity and using free cash flow for debt reduction.
Quantitatively, an upgrade would require debt to EBITDA sustained
below 4.5 times and EBIT/interest coverage sustained above 2.5
times.

Factors that could result in a downgrade include a sustained
deterioration in operating performance, an increase in debt or
deterioration in liquidity, including negative free cash flow
generation. Quantitatively, ratings could be downgraded if debt to
EBITDA was sustained above 5.0 times or EBIT/interest coverage
below 1.75 times.

Headquartered in Calabasas, California, Harbor Freight Tools USA,
Inc. sells value priced tools and equipment through over 1,615
stores in 48 states as of October 31, 2025 as well as through the
internet and its call centers. Harbor Freight Tools USA, Inc. is
privately owned by Mr. Eric Smidt. Revenue is in excess of $8.7
billion as of October 31, 2025.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Retail and
Apparel published in September 2025.

Harbor Freight Tools USA, Inc.'s B1 CFR is set two notches below
its scorecard-indicated outcome of Ba2 which reflects the
challenging consumer environment and the uncertainty surrounding US
trade policy.

HUMANA INC: Fitch Rates New $1BB Jr. Subordinated Debt 'BB'
-----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned a 'BB' rating to Humana Inc.'s (HUM)
issuance of $1 billion junior subordinated debt due September 2056.
HUM and its operating subsidiaries' existing ratings are not
affected by today's rating action. Fitch last reviewed HUM's
ratings on Dec. 15, 2025.

Key Rating Drivers

The new debt is three notches below HUM's Long-Term IDR, reflecting
two notches for subordination based on a baseline recovery
assumption of 'Poor' and one additional notch for minimal
non-performance risk. The debenture will not receive any equity
credit under Fitch's rating criteria. Net proceeds will be used for
general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of
existing indebtedness including borrowings under the commercial
paper program. Fitch's last rating action on HUM was on Dec. 15,
2025.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Sustained EBITDA based margin below 3% and GAAP return on capital
below 7.5%;

- Sustained financial leverage ratio (FLR) above 43% and
debt/EBITDA ratio above 3.2x;

- A reduction in targeted or sustained organization wide risk-based
capital (RBC) ratio below 200% of the company action level.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- Sustained FLR at or below 40% and debt/EBTDA ratio of 2.3x;

- Sustained EBITDA based margin above 4.1%;

- A reduction in targeted and run-rate FLR below 38%:

- An increase in targeted and run-rate organization wide RBC ratio
above 250% of the company action level.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.

HURON UNIVERSITY: DBRS Affirms BB(high) Issuer Rating
-----------------------------------------------------
DBRS Limited changed the trends on the Issuer Rating and Senior
Unsecured Debentures credit rating of Huron University College
(Huron or the University) to Stable from Negative. Concurrently,
Morningstar DBRS confirmed both credit ratings at BB (high).

KEY CREDIT RATING CONSIDERATIONS

The trend change to Stable from Negative reflects an improvement in
operating performance and Morningstar DBRS' expectation that Huron
is now on the path back to financial sustainability. The recent
funding announcement from the Province of Ontario (Ontario or the
Province, rated AA with a Stable trend) is expected to be
materially positive for Huron, which has many unfunded domestic
students and Morningstar DBRS believes will now benefit from the
Province's commitment to fund an additional 70,000 student spaces
in the sector. This, combined with rising enrolment, supported by
strong demand, and ongoing expenditure management, is expected to
accelerate Huron's return to balance.

The credit ratings are supported by Huron's position as an elite,
primarily undergraduate, liberal arts institution with strong
demand for its niche programs and the profile and operational
benefits of its affiliation with a larger, well-recognized
university--Western University (WU; not rated by Morningstar DBRS).
However, Huron's historically weak operating performance, lack of
internal liquidity, and elevated debt levels constrain the credit
ratings.

CREDIT RATING DRIVERS

A credit rating upgrade could occur if Huron demonstrated
sustainable improvement in key financial risk assessment metrics
and mitigates refinancing risk. A credit rating downgrade could
arise if the University faced reduced access to external liquidity,
failed to demonstrate an improvement in financial risk metrics as
currently expected, or materially increased its reliance on bank
credit facilities to fund operating shortfalls.

CREDIT RATING RATIONALE

The University budgeted for a deficit of $6.1 million in 2025-26.
As of the third-quarter update, performance is tracking somewhat
ahead of plan with a deficit of $5.1 million now anticipated.
Following the recent provincial funding announcement, and supported
by strong domestic enrolment growth, Huron's medium-term forecast
appears more favorable. The University now anticipates returning to
a balanced operating position in 2026-27. This is an accelerated
timeline relative to last year's plan, though now consistent with
expectations from two years ago. Given the reduced reliance on
international enrolment and improved funding and domestic tuition
framework, Morningstar DBRS has increased confidence that Huron is
on the path back to financial sustainability.

Huron continues to rely on its bank credit facility to fund
operating shortfalls although debt growth is expected to moderate
in the near to medium term. Total debt reached $116.5 million at
April 30, 2025, up by $10.4 million from the previous year. On a
per- full-time equivalent student (FTE) basis, this equates to
$57,708 -- a modest improvement from the prior year as higher
enrolment more than offset the increase in debt.

Management remains focused on addressing the structural deficit and
anticipates that improving cash flow, supported by the recent
provincial funding announcement, will allow for modest debt
repayment in 2027-28 and beyond. After incorporating Huron's
enrolment growth forecast, debt-per-FTE is expected to decline,
approaching $33,700 by 2029-30.

IR4C INC: To Sell Lakeland Property to Gregory A. Madden
--------------------------------------------------------
IR4C Inc. seeks approval from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division, to sell Property, free
and clear of liens, claims, interests, and encumbrances.

The Debtor's Property that is up for sale is located at 3715 Drane
Field Road, Lakeland, Florida.

The Debtor employs Gary Ralstron with Saunders Real Estate LLC as
the broker.

After a very lengthy marketing process and numerous lower,
unqualified offers, the Debtor finally attracted a qualified cash
buyer for the property in the summer of 2025.

The negotiations with the buyer took several months, partly because
it was important to the Debtor to include a lease-back to continue
its business operations at the location.

The Debtor wants to sell the Property to Gregory A. Madden for the
purchase price of $3,650,000, free and clear of all liens and
pursuant to the contract, the buyer immediately began his due
diligence investigation.

A significant portion of the due diligence involved the
partitioning of the building into separate sections, which requires
the construction of a demising wall. While the buyer anticipated
costs in this process, several latent electrical and plumbing
issues were not discovered until the due diligence period began.

During the due diligence period, the buyer learned that its
original estimate of $60,000 for the demising wall was drastically
low and that the required construction would exceed $300,000.

The latent construction problems discovered by this buyer during
its due diligence are not unique and pose a significant devaluation
to the debtor’s property. The building as it is currently
configured, would not be up to code for multi-tenant occupancy.

The buyer is willing to complete the purchase of the property if it
is credited $190,000 at closing.

The Debtor asserts that it would be a sound business decision to
sell the property to the buyer for the contract price already
approved by this Court previously, and to also, as an additional
term, provide the requested credit to the buyer.

The Debtor seeks to sell the property to the buyer as a "highest
and best" offer which will, overall, maximize the return to the
bankruptcy estate.

Time is of the essence, as this is a real estate transaction, it is
a volatile market, and the buyer wishes to close on April 20, 2026.
Any delay risks the loss of the buyer and continued deterioration
of the market value of the property.

The Buyers do not have any relationship with the Debtor or any
estate professionals. The contract does, however, provide for
leaseback terms to allow the Debtor to maintain its operations in
the building.

Reed, Mawhinney & Link, PLLC is holding the escrow deposit of
$50,000 and will handle the real estate closing.

The Debtor seeks authority from the court for Reed, Mawhinney &
Link PLLC to handle the real estate closing and to distribute from
the sale proceeds the items listed in the Settlement Statement.

KIPP CHARLOTTE: Moody's Alters Outlook on 'Ba1' Rating to Stable
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has revised KIPP Charlotte, Inc., NC's outlook to
stable from negative and has affirmed the Ba1 rating on its
Educational Facilities Revenue Bonds (KIPP Charlotte, Inc.) Series
2020A and Taxable Educational Facilities Revenue Bonds (KIPP
Charlotte, Inc.) Series 2020B (the bonds). KIPP Charlotte has $12
million in revenue bonds outstanding.

The revision of the outlook to stable reflects management's
demonstrated ability to manage through enrollment volatility
without material deterioration in operating performance or debt
service coverage.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba1 rating reflects KIPP Charlotte's sound operating
performance and modest financial leverage despite its recent trend
of lower enrollment. In fiscal 2026, management effectively aligned
expenditures with lower enrollment, preserving operating
performance and maintaining adequate liquidity and debt service
coverage. While management budgeted for 1.2x annual debt service
coverage, actual financial performance through the second quarter
of fiscal 2026 indicates coverage is likely to be stronger for the
full year.

Liquidity will remain sound and leverage moderate, as the school
has no plans for additional debt issuance. As of fiscal 2025,
liquidity was strong relative to operations, with 195 monthly days
cash on hand and spendable cash and investments covering
approximately 50% of outstanding debt. The school's competitive
position remains challenged as academic outcomes continue to trail
the local district and competition is high. Management's continued
ability to effectively manage enrollment and expenses will remain
key to credit quality.

RATING OUTLOOK

The stable outlook reflects management demonstrated ability to
generate sound operating performance through enrollment volatility.
Despite lower enrollment levels, the school has effectively aligned
expenditures with revenues, preserving operating performance and
maintaining adequate debt service coverage, and liquidity.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Strengthening of competitive profile as evidenced by improved
academic performance, enrollment, and student demand trends

-- Stronger operating performance resulting in operating cash flow
margins in the mid to high teens

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Sustained decline in enrollment without corresponding expense
cuts, resulting in annual debt service coverage below 1.2x or
declines in liquidity with days cash on hand below 125 days

-- Deterioration in academic performance, resulting in a weakened
competitive profile and heightened risk to enrollment stability

-- Material increases in leverage without commensurate increase in
revenues or reserves

PROFILE

KIPP Charlotte, Inc. was founded in 2007 and is a public charter
school located in the City of Charlotte, NC. The school operates
two campuses and serves students in grades K-8. In fiscal 2025, the
school reported $12 million in operating revenue and enrollment of
815 students. KIPP Charlotte remains in compliance with all terms
of its charter agreement, which expires on June 30, 2027.

METHODOLOGY

The principal methodology used in these ratings was US Charter
Schools published in April 2024.

LAS VEGAS COLOR: Plan Exclusivity Period Extended to June 4
-----------------------------------------------------------
Judge Natalie Cox of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Nevada extended Las Vegas Color Graphics, Inc., and affiliates'
exclusive periods to file a plan of reorganization and obtain
acceptance thereof to June 4 and August 3, 2026, respectively.

As shared by Troubled Company Reporter, the Debtors submit there is
ample cause to grant the extension of the Exclusive Periods to
allow the companies to seek to file their plan and obtain the
requisite acceptances of their plan before incurring the costs, in
terms of distraction, time, and expense, of responding to any
competing plan of reorganization.

     * Weighing in favor of the first and second factors, these
Chapter 11 Cases are not only relatively large in terms of the
amount of creditors and money at stake but have proven complex and
contentious. The Chapter 11 Cases were immediately contentious with
instant contested First Day Motions and other post-petition
litigation. The CROs efforts and attention to evaluating ongoing
business issues to stabilize operations have left Debtors with
insufficient time to develop a plan to reorganize by the initial
deadline.

     * Weighing in favor of the third factor, the Debtors' diligent
actions to this point described above evidences their good faith
progress toward reorganization. The Debtors, along with their
professionals, have taken the necessary steps to prosecute the
Chapter 11 Cases.

     * Weighing in favor of the fourth, fifth, and six factors, the
Debtors have diligently worked with Aequum, both to resolve cash
collateral issues and to develop a viable path moving forward. Now
that the CRO and GTG have been employed, the cash collateral
stipulations are in place, and the debtors have completed the
initial stipulations and litigation to reject various leases that
are not valuable to the estates, the Debtors can make expeditious
progress on determining their next steps moving forward.

     * Weighing in favor of the seventh factor, this Motion is the
first request to extend the Exclusive Periods. As noted by the
court in Texaco, in particularly complex cases, it is not unusual
for two or three years to pass before a debtor is in a position to
file a plan. As these Chapter 11 Cases are complex and only a few
months have passed since the Petition Date, this factor weighs in
favor of extending exclusivity.

LAUNDROMAT OF NEVADA: Gets OK to Use Cash Collateral
----------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Nevada issued an
order approving the stipulation entered into by Laundromat of
Nevada, LLC and its secured creditors Dexter Financial Services,
Inc. and Countrywide Clean, LLC.

The stipulation allows the Debtor to use cash collateral, which
consists of proceeds from the Debtor's accounts and inventory.

As part of the agreement, the Debtor acknowledges that certain
security agreements and financing statements held by the secured
creditors constitute a valid, properly perfected, and enforceable
lien and security interest in the creditors' collateral. However,
this is not binding on creditors and parties in interest.

Dexter will be granted a replacement lien on all post-petition
tangible and intangible property that forms part of the collateral.
This lien will apply only to assets acquired after the bankruptcy
filing and will have same validity, priority and extent as the
pre-bankruptcy lien held by the secured creditor as of the petition
date.

The order is available at https://is.gd/Pm3NT5 from
PacerMonitor.com.

Before filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the Debtor entered into
two loan agreements with Dexter totaling $825,676.82. Dexter holds
a security interest in substantially all of the Debtor's assets,
including proceeds from accounts and inventory, which constitute
cash collateral.

Meanwhile, a UCC-1 financing statement was recorded in favor of
Countrywide in December 2025, listing all assets and general
intangibles as its collateral.

LAUREL GROCERY: Fifth Third Wants Paladin Consulting as Receiver
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fifth Third Bank, National Association, filed a motion with the
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky, Southern
Division, seeking the appointment of Paladin Consulting, Inc.'s
Stefan Piotrowski and Tom DelZenero as receivers for Laurel Grocery
Company, LLC and its affiliated defendants, Retail Marketing
Corporation, Laurel Shelby, LLC, Laurel St. Henry, LLC, and Laurel
St. Henry Holdings, LLC.

The Bank holds a priority lien on substantially all of the Obligor
Defendants' assets, which have been pledged to secure repayment of
all amounts owed to the Bank by the Obligors. The Bank's collateral
includes, but is not limited to, real property improved by a
temperature-controlled warehouse located at 129 Barbourville Road
in London, Kentucky, and groups of receivables and other assets,
and assets of the other Obligors.

The Bank seeks the appointment of Paladin as receiver for all such
Laurel Grocery Collateral. Paladin has been working as a consultant
to Laurel Grocery and the other Obligors, with the Agreement of the
Bank to liquidate the Laurel Grocery Collateral informally.
However, that process has not been completed, and it is now evident
that the appointment of Paladin as receiver would aid in the
orderly and efficient collection and liquidation of the Obligors'
businesses and the Laurel Grocery Collateral, for the benefit of
the Bank and other creditors.

On October 21, 2021, Fifth Third made loans to Laurel Grocery and
the other Obligors pursuant to a Credit and Security Agreement of
the same date. The Loans are (a) a revolving loan in the maximum
original principal amount of $22,000,000.00, which has an original
maturity date of October 21, 2026, and (b) a real estate term loan
in the original principal amount of $10,000,000.00, which has an
original maturity of October 21, 2026.

The Loans are secured by a Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and
Rents, Security Agreement, and Fixture Agreement dated October 21,
2021, executed and delivered by Laurel Grocery to Fifth Third by
which, among other things, Laurel Grocery granted to Fifth Third a
mortgage on certain real property in multiple parcels in Laurel
County, Kentucky.

On May 28, 2025, Laurel Grocery executed and delivered to the Bank
a Second Forbearance Agreement and Fourth Amendment to Credit and
Security Agreement.

To further secure payment of Laurel Grocery's Obligations to Fifth
Third, including under the Revolving Loans and the Real Estate Term
Loan, Retail Marketing Corporation, an affiliate of Laurel Grocery,
executed and delivered to Fifth Third a commercial guaranty
agreement by which, inter alia, RMC absolutely and unconditionally
guaranteed to Fifth Third the full and punctual payment and
satisfaction of the indebtedness of Laurel Grocery to Fifth Third,
and the performance and discharge of all of Obligations under the
Credit Agreement and the related documents.

By not later than August 29, 2025, the Obligors were in default
under the Credit Agreement and Guaranty as a result of defaults,
including but not necessarily limited to, all obligations coming
due as a result of the expiration of the Second Forbearance
Agreement on August 29, 2025, and the commencement of certain legal
proceedings against one or more of the Obligors.

As of February 1, 2026, there is an unpaid balance due and owing on
the Revolving Loan in excess of $1 million. This balance includes
principal in the amount of $1,036,241.58, $5,798.73 in interest at
the pre-default contract rate, and $289.61 in other charges.
Additional costs and fees continue to accrue.

As of February 1, 2026, there is an unpaid balance due and owing on
the Real Estate Term Loan in excess of $6.8 million. This balance
includes principal in the amount of $6,761, 314.07 and $49,499.99in
interest at the pre-default contract rate. Additional costs and
fees continue to accrue.

The Defendants other than the Obligor Defendants include two
judgment lien holders whose liens went on record before the
recordation of the Bank's Lis Pendens notice on February 24, 2026,
and several entities having filed financing statements in the
office of the Kentucky Secretary of State, all of which were
recorded and filed after Fifth Third’s Mortgage and financing
statements.

Creditors holding unsecured claims have been engaged in a race to
various courthouses, filing lawsuits, obtaining judgments and
filing liens that would prevent further liquidation of the
collateral absent the ability to sell property free and clear of
liens and other interests through a foreclosure and receivership
action.

Appointment of a receiver would, among other things, allow the
receiver to continue selling property through the authorizations in
the tendered Order Appointing Receiver and give it the obligation
to hold any sale proceeds in excess of the amount of the Bank's
liens for the benefit of those holding claims junior to the Bank.

Finally, the Obligors have authorized the Bank to report to this
Court that they acknowledge their consent to the appointment of a
receiver in their agreements with the Bank and do not object to the
Motion.

LELAND HOUSE: Seeks to Sell Leland House at Auction
---------------------------------------------------
Leland House Limited Partnership Company seeks approval from the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Michigan,
Southern Division, to sell Property at auction, free and clear of
liens, claims, interests, and encumbrances.

The Debtor owns and operates the Leland House, a 20-story
Beaux-Arts Detroit landmark built in 1927 and located at 400 Bagley
St., Detroit, Michigan (Leland House).

The Debtor's brokers have worked ceaselessly to prepare for a sale,
market the property, and obtain an acceptable stalking horse
purchase agreement that ensures the sale will be successful and
will be sufficient to fully repay.

The Debtor previously filed a motion to approve sale procedures.
The First Sale Procedures Motion sought,
among other things, to sell the Leland House and the adjacent
parking lots (owned by a third party) in a single sale. The Debtor
had obtained a stalking horse bid from Arkist, LLC for the combined
sale in the amount of $3.5 million with a break-up fee of 5% plus
an expense reimbursement of up to $25,000. However, the First Sale
Procedures Motion was denied.

Since the First Sale Procedures Motion was denied, Debtor has
continued to market the Leland House to prospective buyers through
Savills, Debtor’s real estate broker, and Ten-X, an on-line
auction platform with access to potential investors across the
country and internationally.

After extended discussions with Savills, Arkist indicated that it
would consider making a stalking horse offer for just the Leland
House on terms generally acceptable to the Debtor. After further
negotiations, late in the afternoon of March 11, 2026, Debtor
received the executed revised stalking horse offer.
https://urlcurt.com/u?l=7zRPbv

Debtor believes this stalking horse offer is acceptable and
benefits the Chapter 11 bankruptcy estate. The offer reduces the
break-up fee from 5% (of $3.5m) plus a $25,000 expense
reimbursement ($200,000 total) to a 3.5% break-up fee with no
expense reimbursement ($73,500 total). The revised offer also
deletes the requirement that the break-up fee receive
super-priority expense reimbursement.

A comparison of the current stalking horse offer and the original
stalking horse offer is attached as Exhibit 6.B.

The amount of the stalking horse offer has been reduced from $3.5
million to $2.1 million. This reflects the removal of the adjacent
parking lot from the sale. In discussions with potential
purchasers, Debtor has been informed that the removal of the
parking lots does make the Leland House a less desirable
property for redevelopment. Further, the value of the parking lots
(which would have been paid to the owner of the parking lots) is
likely greater than $1.4 million, the difference between the first
and current stalking horse offers. Accordingly, the value to the
Debtor’s estate is actually higher under the current stalking
horse bid.

The Leland House has received significant interest from potential
purchasers and Debtor anticipates an active auction. Accordingly,
Debtor believes it is likely that the Leland House will sell at
auction for more than the $2.1 million stalking horse bid.

Promptly after the conclusion of the Auction, Debtor intends to
file a motion to approve a sale of the Leland House free and clear
of all liens, claims and encumbrances to the winning bidder at the
Auction.

A summary of the bidding procedures is also provided.

LEYDEN ROCK: Moody's Downgrades Issuer & GOLT Ratings to Ba1
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has downgraded Leyden Rock Metropolitan District,
CO's issuer rating to Ba1 from A2 and general obligation limited
tax (GOLT) rating to Ba1 from A3. The district has about $49.7
million in GOLT debt outstanding.

This action concludes a review for possible downgrade that was
initiated on Dec. 09, 2025 in conjunction with the release of the
US Special Purpose Districts methodology.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba1 issuer rating reflects the district's very narrow available
fund balance-to-liabilities ratio of 1.5% that will remain
extremely limited. It also reflects the inherent weaker governance
structure for all metropolitan districts given limited managerial
resources available to react quickly to unexpected revenue declines
or event risks.

The Ba1 rating incorporates the district's lean liquidity, at 6.0%
of revenue. This level improves to around 15.6% of revenue when
adjusted for $456,000 of cash restricted for debt service. Despite
the improvement, the level remains lower than peers but is balanced
by the district's limited scale of operations. Fiscal 2025
estimates indicate a deficit of approximately $140,000 that will
result in a decline of reserve levels to around 13.0% of revenue.
The fiscal 2026 budget reflects a modest surplus driven by a
decline in operations and  maintenance expenditures. Nevertheless,
reserves will remain relatively stable.

The Ba1 rating is supported by solid economic factors including a
strong resident income which equates 136.9% of the US median, and a
built-out tax base that exhibits strong growth, key to property tax
revenue, the main revenue source.

The district's moderate 4.2% long-term liabilities to full value
ratio will improve with continued tax base growth and given a lack
of issuance plans.

The Ba1 rating on the district's GOLT debt is the same as the
issuer rating and reflects the sufficient headroom under the
maximum millage available to pay debt service.

RATING OUTLOOK

Moody's do not assign outlooks to local government issuers with
this amount of debt outstanding.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Trend of surplus operations resulting in available fund balance
and/or liquidity ratios approaching 50% of revenue

-- Increase in available fund balance to liabilities that
approaches 20%, in line with higher rated peers

-- Moderation of long-term liabilities relative full value to
levels approaching higher rated peers

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Erosion of reserves with levels falling below 10% of revenue

-- Higher long-term liabilities relative to full value, and/or
available fund balance to long term liabilities falling below
current levels

PROFILE

The district contains approximately 983 acres of property and is
located in the City of Arvada, 20 miles northwest of the City and
County of Denver and 15 miles south of the City of Boulder. The
district is fully built out, consisting of 1,439 single family
homes, all of which have been sold to homeowners.

METHODOLOGY

The principal methodology used in these ratings was US Special
Purpose Districts published in December 2025.

MISS AMERICA: Court Rules Corporate Documents Were Falsified
------------------------------------------------------------
Alex Wolf of Bloomberg Law reports that a U.S. district judge has
ruled that developer Glenn Straub and his attorney engaged in
misconduct by creating fabricated corporate documents in a dispute
over control of the Miss America organization. The court found that
the documents were intended to bolster their claims in the
ownership fight.

Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks of the Southern District of Florida
said Straub and lawyer Craig T. Galle relied on fraudulent
operating agreements and meeting minutes in several legal
proceedings. The judge noted that the documents were submitted in
as many as four different courts during the conflict with Miss
America director Robin Fleming.

The court also determined that Straub and Galle acted in bad faith
during an evidentiary hearing, where they allegedly provided false
and evasive testimony. As a result, the judge issued sanctions that
bar them from filing counterclaims against Fleming and require them
to pay her legal fees, the report states.

Middlebrooks described the conduct as a serious abuse of the
judicial process, stating that the fabrications amounted to fraud
on the court. Fleming's attorney, Benjamin Chew, said the ruling
confirmed that the court recognized the extent of the misconduct
involved in the case, Bloomberg Law reports.

MOOG INC: Moody's Rates New Sr. Unsecured Notes Due 2034 'Ba2'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings assigned a Ba2 rating to Moog Inc.'s (Moog) new
senior unsecured notes due 2034. The company's domestic
subsidiaries will guarantee the new notes on an unsecured basis.
The Ba1 corporate family rating, Ba1-PD probability of default
rating and the stable outlook are unaffected by the debt issuance.

Moog will use the net proceeds of financing to retire its existing
senior unsecured notes due 2027. The transaction is leverage
neutral. The ratings on the existing notes will be withdrawn upon
close of the transaction.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba1 CFR reflects the company's well-established position as a
long-standing provider of motion control and precision components
across a wide variety of industries. Moog benefits from the returns
on its investment in research and development, which has averaged
around 3.5% of revenue over the last few years. Moody's expects
Moog's growing backlog (almost $3.3 billion in December 2025) and
the sustainably strong demand in aerospace and defense markets will
support sales growth in the high single-digits in 2026. Moody's
expects the company to continue to maintain a strong balance sheet
with debt-to-EBITDA below 3x, while generating healthy cash flow,
with FCF-to-debt in the high single-digits during 2026.

Tempering considerations include exposure to some end-markets (e.g.
industrial) that are relatively more cyclical in nature.
Additionally, customer concentration is relatively high, with the
top two customers accounting for 20% of sales. Moog also has a
history of somewhat volatile cash generation. However, Moody's
expects free cash flow to be more stable and modestly improve from
the $82 million achieved in fiscal 2025 over the next few years.

The Ba2 rating on Moog's new $500 million senior unsecured notes is
one notch below the Ba1 corporate family rating. The unsecured
notes are effectively junior to the $1.1 billion revolving credit
facility and the $250 million term loan, both of which, are secured
and unrated. The revolver and term loan are secured by
substantially all assets of Moog's domestic subsidiaries.

The stable outlook reflects the favorable backdrop for aerospace
and defense markets which will support a steady operating profile
and healthy credit metrics.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATING

The ratings could be upgraded if the company transitions to an
unsecured debt structure. Debt-to-EBITDA sustained below 3x with
FCF-to-debt consistently in the mid single-digits could also be
supportive of an upgrade.

The ratings could be downgraded if debt-to-EBITDA is sustained
above 4x or if free cash generation is negative or in the low
single-digits.

Moog Inc., headquartered in East Aurora, New York, is a designer
and manufacturer of high-performance precision motion and fluid
controls and control systems for the commercial aerospace, defense,
industrial and medical markets. Moog reported revenues of almost
$4.1 billion for the twelve months ended January 03, 2026.

The principal methodology used in this rating was Aerospace and
Defense published in July 2025.

NERFIES MANAGEMENT: Claims to be Paid from Continued Operations
---------------------------------------------------------------
Nerfies Management, LLC, filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Eastern District of Texas a Plan of Reorganization under
Subchapter V dated March 2, 2026.

Formed August 15, 2024, Nerfies is a Texas limited liability
company that provides space and supplies for kid's birthday parties
in Plano, Texas. Tim Avance and Stephanie Avance are the sole
members/managers of the Debtor.

Services provided by Nerfies are centered on real property leased
by the Debtor and are performed by a combination of employees under
the direction of Tim and Stephanie Avance. Nerfies operates out of
a single location, located at 3045 W. 15th Street, Plano, Texas,
75075.

Nerfies's financial difficulties arose primarily from losses
experienced due to less than favorable economic conditions, which,
coupled with a substantial amount of secured debt, relative to its
revenues, has caused it to struggle to pay its debt services to
Comerica Bank, although it was not in default prior to filing the
its bankruptcy case, except through a cross default arising from a
default on an affiliated party loan to Avance Management Inc.

The Plan provides for a reorganization and restructuring of the
Debtor's financial obligations. Under the Plan, Debtor will pay in
full Allowed Administrative Claims, Allowed Priority Claims and
Allowed Priority Tax Claims. Debtor will provide Comerica Bank with
monthly payments up to the value of the Collateral securing its
liens over a period of twelve months. Afterwards, Debtor will make
payments to Comerica Bank and Creditors holding Allowed General
Unsecured Claims over a period of twenty-four months in quarterly
distributions of a fixed amount proposed herein or, alternatively,
of Disposable Income available to the Debtor.  

Class 3 consists of Non priority Unsecured Creditors. Each holder
of an Allowed Unsecured Claim in Class 3 shall be paid by
Reorganized Debtor as follows in full satisfaction of such
creditor's claim: holders of an allowed Class 3 (as well as other
Classes of Claims deemed to be a member of Class 3) shall receive
their pro-rata share of payments from a common fund (the "Unsecured
Creditor Pool"), which pool shall consist of a fixed payment amount
of $500.00 per month for the twenty-four months following the
Initial Payment Period or, alternatively, of Disposable Income
available to the Debtor.

Payments from the Unsecured Creditor Pool to holders of Allowed
Class 3 Claims shall be accrued and paid quarterly, for a period
not to exceed two years. The first of eight quarterly Disposable
Income Payments shall be made on the first day of the fifteenth
month following the Effective Date and every three months
thereafter. No Holder of a Class 3 Claim shall receive more than
100% of their Allowed Claim.

Class 4 consists of the holder of Allowed Interests of Debtor. The
holders of an Allowed Class 4 Interest shall retain their interest
in the Reorganized Debtor.

The Plan provides for a distribution to Creditors in accordance
with the terms of the Plan from the Debtor over the course of three
years from the Effective Date of the Plan from the Debtor's
continued business operations.

NEXSTAR MEDIA: Moody's Confirms 'Ba3' CFR & Alters Outlook to Neg.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings confirmed Nexstar Media Inc.'s ("Nexstar" or the
"company") Ba3 corporate family rating and Ba3-PD probability of
default rating. Moody's also confirmed the Ba2 ratings on the
company's existing senior secured bank credit facilities residing
at Nexstar and its wholly-owned consolidated subsidiary, Mission
Broadcasting, Inc. ("Mission"), and B2 ratings on Nexstar's
existing senior unsecured notes. The outlooks for Nexstar and
Mission were changed to negative from ratings under review.
Previously, the ratings were on review for downgrade. This
concludes Moody's ratings review on Nexstar and Mission that was
initiated on August 20, 2025. In connection with this rating
action, Moody's assigned a Ba2 rating to the company's proposed
$2.75 billion senior secured term loan B due 2033 (the "2033 TLB").
Nexstar's Speculative Grade Liquidity (SGL) rating remains
unchanged at SGL-2.

On August 19, 2025, Nexstar announced that it had entered into a
definitive agreement to acquire all outstanding shares of TEGNA
Inc. in an all-cash transaction valued at $6.2 billion, to be
financed almost entirely with debt. The transaction is expected to
receive regulatory approvals from the FCC and DOJ, and close by the
end of Q2 2026.

Net proceeds from the proposed debt issuance plus other pending
borrowings and cash balances will be used to help finance the TEGNA
acquisition, repay TEGNA's outstanding unsecured notes due 2028 and
2029 (totaling $2.1 billion) and roll over TEGNA's outstanding
unsecured notes due 2027 (totaling $440 million). Other pending
borrowings are also expected to refinance Nexstar's existing 5.625%
senior unsecured notes due 2027. Upon transaction closing, to the
extent that TEGNA's notes are fully extinguished (or if any
residual TEGNA notes are defeased), Moody's would withdraw the
ratings. However, if any residual TEGNA notes remain outstanding
post-closing that are assumed by Nexstar, Moody's would reassess
the ratings based on the debts' relative positioning within
Nexstar's new debt capital structure and whether the debts will be
guaranteed, collateralized, or remain unsecured, and to the extent
the debts are not guaranteed, the adequacy of TEGNA's future
financial reporting. Moody's expects that the new 2033 TLB will
rank pari passu with the company's existing bank credit facilities.
At transaction closing, Moody's expects that TEGNA will become an
operating subsidiary and guarantor of the debts residing at
Nexstar. The assigned rating is subject to review of final
documentation and no material change in the size, terms and
conditions of the transaction as advised to us.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The merger transaction nearly doubles Nexstar's gross debt to $12.2
billion from $6.3 billion at December 31, 2025 without a
proportionate increase in TEGNA EBITDA. As such, Moody's estimates
Nexstar's financial leverage at closing will be around 5x (leverage
metrics are Moody's adjusted total debt to two-year average
EBITDA). The negative outlook reflects Moody's expectations that
Nexstar's leverage will remain above the 4x downgrade threshold
throughout the rating horizon and potentially beyond, if the
company is unable to timely repay the incremental debt and execute
on realizing $300+ million in planned net synergies. Moody's
believes Nexstar is committed to deleveraging the balance sheet and
will refrain from share repurchases during the rating horizon, with
a plan to use excess cash flow to repay debt and reduce leverage to
current levels by FY 2028. However, prior to this transaction,
Nexstar's leverage was already at the 4x downgrade threshold, which
means the company's financial flexibility within the Ba3 CFR was
constrained heading into the debt-financed combination. As such,
governance considerations were also a driver of the negative
outlook.

Nexstar must focus on meaningful voluntary debt reduction,
proactive balance sheet management, and continual operating expense
cuts, all of which are crucial to offsetting the industry's
structural challenges and maintaining the Ba3 rating. Moody's
projects leverage reduction will be gradual and eventually decrease
below 4x (barring another debt-funded M&A event), however
transpiring beyond Moody's rating horizon. Moody's forecasts
considers Nexstar's planned synergies, as well as economic
uncertainty surrounding US tariffs and retaliatory measures, which
will likely prompt budget reductions from advertisers, especially
in verticals that are more consumer-sensitive. Hence, additional
cost reductions may be required to offset the continued secular
pressures on top-line revenue and facilitate faster de-leveraging.

While Nexstar demonstrated successful deleveraging after acquiring
Tribune Media in 2019, that period experienced lower subscriber
attrition and ad revenue displacement compared to March 09. 2026.
Notably, the company's pace of deleveraging slowed in recent years
as its two-year average organic revenue growth from 2022 to 2025
decelerated from around 8% to 0.2%, two-year average free cash flow
(FCF) declined from $1.027 billion to $713 million (Moody's
adjusted), and a greater amount of excess cash flow was allocated
to share repurchases.

The confirmation of the Ba3 CFR reflects Nexstar's substantial
national scale with nearly $8 billion in pro forma revenue as the
largest US local TV broadcaster. Nexstar's top ranked stations in
local news viewership, diverse affiliate mix and lead rankings for
the designated market areas (DMAs) in which it operates positions
the company to capture advertising spend across its markets,
despite secular pressures in linear TV core advertising due to
continuing share losses to digital media (i.e., virtual
multichannel video programming distributors (vMVPDs),
advertising-based video-on-demand (AVOD) and connected-TV (CTV)).

In addition to reaching 80% of US TV households, the combined
company's scale will benefit from: (i) its 265 full power stations
operating in 132 DMAs (41 of the top 50); (ii) being the largest
affiliate broadcast group for all of the Big Four networks; (iii)
revenue synergies from the step-up in retransmission rates for
TEGNA's distribution partners; and (iv) the creation of new Big
Four duopolies as well as triopolies that could lead to meaningful
synergies in the 35 TEGNA DMAs that overlap with Nexstar's DMAs.
The business model also benefits from the 65+ age demographic,
which is the primary audience for linear TV consumption in the US
and fastest-growing demographic, creating an unprecedented boom in
the older population that is also living longer. Ratings also
consider Nexstar's good liquidity, with solid cash balances coupled
with robust FCF that increases materially from the influx of
political advertising revenue during election years. However,
political revenue is also increasingly shifting to digital.

The CFR is constrained by Nexstar's exposure to cyclical
advertising revenue as well as the ongoing structural decline in
linear TV core advertising as non-political TV advertising budgets
continue to erode in favor of digital media. Additionally,
Nexstar's retransmission revenue growth will be challenged over the
medium-to-long term, in Moody's opinion, because Moody's expects
the rate of traditional subscriber losses to outpace annual
escalators in non-contract renewal years, offsetting the material
fee increases occurring at the time of contract renewal. While the
industry's total subscriber attrition is in the mid-to-high single
digit percentage range supported by subscriber growth from vMVPDs,
Moody's expects cord-cutting will remain in the low-to-mid teens
percentage region for traditional cable and satellite pay-TV
providers resulting in continual shrinkage of the pay-TV universe.
This means that retransmission revenue increases in non-contract
renewal years will remain low to nil. Though Nexstar's meaningful
local reach and strong DMAs offer some protection, retransmission
revenue growth will be muted and more dependent on rate increases
when distribution contracts renew. Nexstar's content is distributed
to streaming platforms, however there is little visibility over
vMVPD subscriber numbers and the net impact of the revenue streams
on broadcasters' EBITDA given that the rates for vMVPD subscribers
are negotiated by the major broadcast networks rather than the
local broadcasters.

Moody's expects Nexstar's digital business will continue to grow at
the same pace as vMVPD industry growth rates and the company will
continue to offer the highest quality programming among the its
local broadcast peers, a credit positive. Given that Moody's
expects consumer demand for professional live sports programming to
remain strong, Moody's also expects streaming services will
continue to actively pursue rights for live sports content and pay
higher rates. Eventually, higher costs could be passed on to the
consumer in the form of increased subscription prices, which could
pressure subscriber growth rates if consumers refuse to pay and
move away from "skinny bundles," thus reducing the number of paying
subscribers and further squeeze the per-subscriber retransmission
fees that broadcasters rely on.

Over the next 12-18 months, Moody's expects Nexstar will maintain
good liquidity as indicated by the SGL-2 Speculative Grade
Liquidity rating, supported by good excess cash flow generation,
sufficient cash balances (cash at Nexstar and TEGNA totaled $280
million and $291 million, respectively at December 31, 2025) and
access to the $750 million revolving credit facility (RCF) due 2030
residing at Nexstar and $75 million RCF due 2030 residing at the
Mission subsidiary ($62 million outstanding). Moody's expects
Nexstar will partially draw under the $750 million RCF at closing
to help fund the TEGNA buyout. Since 2026 will be a political year,
Moody's expects FCF for the combined company in the range of $1.1
billion to $1.3 billion, a portion of which will be used to repay
outstanding RCF borrowings by year end. Nexstar's RCF is subject to
a first-lien net leverage maintenance covenant set at 4.25x. At
Nexstar's election, the covenant can increase to 4.75x in the
quarter in which a material transaction has transpired and remain
at this level for the following three consecutive quarters. At
December 31, 2025, the company's first-lien net leverage was 3.1x
and Moody's expects sufficient headroom under the 4.75x step-up
covenant over the twelve month-period following transaction
closing.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

The rating outlook could be stabilized if Nexstar were to reduce
leverage to the 4.25x – 4.5x area and Moody's expects leverage to
decline further to below 4x (leverage metrics are Moody's adjusted
on a two-year average EBITDA basis). While unlikely over the
near-term, ratings could be upgraded if Nexstar were to maintain a
publicly-defined financial policy with respect to financial
leverage that is sustained comfortably below 3x. For upward ratings
pressure to occur, the company would also need to exhibit: (i)
organic revenue growth and stable-to-improving EBITDA margins on a
two-year average basis; (ii) FCF to debt sustained above 10%
(Moody's adjusted on a two-year average FCF basis); and (iii)
adherence to conservative financial policies while maintaining at
least good liquidity.

Ratings could be downgraded if Moody's expects financial leverage
will be sustained above 4x over a longer-than-expected timeframe,
continued weakening or declines in organic revenue, operating
underperformance, more aggressive financial policies or inability
to meaningfully reduce debt levels. Downward ratings pressure could
occur if Moody's expects two-year average FCF to debt will be
sustained below 5% (Moody's adjusted) or a deterioration in the
company's liquidity or covenant compliance weakness.

Headquartered in Irving, Texas, Nexstar Media Inc. is the largest
US television broadcaster, owning, operating, or providing sales

million people. The company operates in 18 of the top 25 markets,
with digital assets that include 138 local websites and 229 mobile
applications across its local stations, NewsNation and The Hill.
Nexstar owns roughly an 81% interest in The CW Network, the
nation's fifth major broadcast network reaching 126 million
television households. Nexstar's standalone revenue totaled around
$4.9 billion in fiscal 2025. Pro forma for the combination with

NUASIN NEXT: Moody's Alters Outlook on 'Ba3' Bond Rating to Stable
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has affirmed Nuasin Next Generation Charter
School's (NY) Ba3 revenue bond rating. The school had $25.8 million
in debt outstanding as of June 30, 2025. The outlook was revised to
stable from negative.

The outlook revision reflects the school's receipt of a waiver
related to its fiscal 2024 covenant breach and its achievement of
required covenant levels in fiscal 2025.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba3 rating reflects Nuasin Next Generation's sound liquidity
and improved operating performance, balanced against its moderate
scale and shrinking waitlist. While the fiscal 2026 budget
indicates softening relative to the 15% EBIDA margin in fiscal
2025, actual results through the second quarter of fiscal 2026
indicate performance will exceed budget. As the school advances its
growth strategy, targeting roughly 20% enrollment expansion, risks
remain around student demand and retention in a competitive
environment, as well as the school's ability to manage expenses in
line with revenue growth. Favorably, Nuasin continues to
demonstrate strong academic outcomes relative to the district.

RATING OUTLOOK

The stable outlook reflects the likelihood the school will maintain
improved financial performance and continue to meet debt service
coverage covenants, while considering risks associated with its
expansion strategy.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATING

-- Sustaining positive operating performance through expansion,
resulting in sound debt service coverage and liquidity

-- Continued enrollment growth and effective execution of
expansion plans, supporting revenue gains and improved financial
stability

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATING

-- Inability to sustain strong operating performance leading to
liquidity below 90 days cash on hand

-- Weakening demand or academic performance leading to increased
operating volatility

-- Material growth in debt or lease liabilities without
corresponding increases in cash or investments

PROFILE

Nuasin Next Generation Charter School, formerly Metropolitan
Lighthouse Charter School, is a public charter school serving
grades K-12. Founded in 2010, the school is located in the Bronx in
New York City and is educating approximately 870 students in the
2025-26 academic year. Its charter is authorized by the State
University of New York (SUNY) Charter Schools Institute.

METHODOLOGY

The principal methodology used in this rating was US Charter
Schools published in April 2024.

PELICAN PIPELINE: S&P Assigns 'BB' ICR, Outlook Stable
------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB' issuer credit rating to
Pelican Pipeline and its 'BB' issue-level rating and '3' recovery
rating to the term loan B (TLB). The '3' recovery rating indicates
its expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded estimate: 60%)
recovery in the event of a default.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectation that the project's
leverage will be about 11.0x in 2027, reflecting a partial year of
EBITDA following completion, before declining to about 6.3x in 2028
as it ramps up its volumes and generates a full year of earnings.

S&P said, "The 'BB' issuer credit rating reflects our view of the
project's credit profile during the operations phase, commencing in
April 2027, during which it will be supported by long-term
contracted cash flows from investment-grade counterparties serving
LNG demand along the U.S. Gulf Coast. Our rating incorporates
Pelican's elevated leverage during its initial years of operations,
with projected debt to EBITDA of about 11.0x in 2027 and 6.3x in
2028, given our expectation for a partial year of EBITDA in its
first year before it gradually ramps up its utilization
thereafter."

Pelican is issuing a $700 million senior secured TLB structured
with project finance characteristics to fund the construction of
the pipeline, which it expects to begin in March 2026 and
anticipates will last approximately 11 months. Upon completion of
construction and the commencement of operations, Pelican's capital
structure will automatically convert from a project finance style
structure to a corporate style structure. At that point, the
transaction will no longer meet the structural features required
for analysis under S&P's project finance criteria.

S&P said, "We rate the company using our "Principles of Credit
Ratings" criteria. Our analysis reflects a two-phase assessment.
During construction, we evaluate Pelican's construction phase
stand-alone credit profile (SACP) under our project finance
criteria, which we assess at 'bbb-'. However, once the project
becomes operational and its capital structure converts, we will
evaluate its operations-phase SACP under our corporate methodology,
which we expect to assess at 'bb'. Our 'BB' issuer credit rating
reflects the lower of these two phase-specific assessments.

"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that Pelican's
construction will be completed on time and in budget, with the
project achieving its April 2027 in-service date (ISD) and
beginning to generate revenue at that time.

"We expect the system to be about 80% utilized in 2027, with
utilization increasing to about 90% by 2029 as additional volumes
are secured, with cash flow supported by long-term fixed-fee
contracts with investment-grade counterparties. We expect leverage
of about 11.0x in 2027, reflecting a partial year of EBITDA, before
declining to about 6.3x in 2028 as Pelican ramps up its volumes and
generates a full year of earnings.

"We could take a negative rating action during the construction
phase if the project experiences material delays or cost overruns
due to the financial or operational distress of key construction
counterparties or equipment suppliers. Particularly, this could
occur if Pelican is unable to replace them in a timely manner or
lacks sufficient liquidity to absorb the related replacement
costs.

"During the operations phase, we could take negative rating action
if additional contracted volumes fail to materialize and leverage
remains above 6.5x over the long term, or if a key shipper
experiences operational or financial distress that weakens
Pelican's cash flow.

"We do not expect to take a positive rating action during the
construction phase.

"During the operations phase, we could take a positive rating
action if Pelican's leverage declines below 4.5x and we expect it
will remain at this level on a sustained basis. This could occur if
the pipeline secures additional long-term transportation contracts
that increase its volumes and EBITDA or it uses excess cash flow
for debt reduction."



PENINSULA PACIFIC: Moody's Affirms 'B3' CFR, Outlook Remains Stable
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings affirmed the B3 Corporate Family Rating and B3-PD
Probability of Default Rating of Peninsula Pacific Entertainment
Development, LLC ("P2E"). Moody's also affirmed the company's
existing B3 rated senior secured term loan (to be increased by $120
million) and senior secured delayed draw term loan, as well as the
company's Ba3 rated super priority senior secured revolving credit
facility. The outlook remains stable.

Proceeds from the proposed incremental $120 million term loan,
along with cash from the balance sheet and cash from operations,
will be used to fund a $50 million distribution to its parent
company and the $120 million redevelopment of P2E's Manchester, New
Hampshire property, and pay related fees and expenses.

P2E owns and operates Kansas Crossing casino in Pittsburg, Kansas
and five casinos in New Hampshire. P2E is also building a new
casino property with 700 slots, 22 tables, four food and beverage
outlets, and a 1,500-person event center named Cedar Crossing in
Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The opening of Cedar Crossing is planned for
late 2026. The Manchester redevelopment will result in a new
property with 550 slots, 18 tables, 12 poker tables, four food and
beverage outlets, and a 1,100-person event center, with a planned
opening of summer 2028.

RATINGS RATIONALE

P2E's B3 Corporate Family Rating reflects the company's relatively
small size and scale, as well as the construction and ramp-up risk
associated with most new casino projects. Although the company has
existing operations, its operations are small compared to other
rated gaming issuers, and leverage will be high during the
construction and ramp up period of Cedar Crossing casino and the
Manchester redevelopment. Moody's expects leverage to peak over 10x
debt/EBITDA during the construction phase, but fall back near 6.0x
at the end of 2027. Risks related to general economic conditions,
particularly for sectors such as gaming that are heavily reliant on
consumer discretionary spending, remain a constraint. Positively,
P2E benefits from an experienced management team and development
track record, the solid performance of its Kansas casino, and
growth in its New Hampshire operations due to renovations and
planned conversion to class III games and removal of table betting
limits. P2E will also benefit from having a new casino in the
second largest city in Iowa, Cedar Rapids, with its closest
competitor being 40 minutes' drive away and from the new facility
in Manchester. The projects are in part supported by existing
operations, and have a standard level of contingency reserves for
this type of development.

The stable rating outlook reflects Moody's expectations that P2E
will have adequate funds to complete both construction projects and
that the new casinos will ramp up successfully.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

Moody's do not anticipate a ratings upgrade during the construction
period. However, upon completion of construction, P2E's ratings may
be upgraded if the project successfully commences operations, ramps
up and the debt/EBITDA ratio declines below 4.0x. An increase in
size and scale would also be needed to support a ratings upgrade.

Ratings may be downgraded if the projects encounter significant
cost overruns or construction delays. Additionally, ratings could
be downgraded if ramp-up performance falls below expectations, the
overall economy and consumer spending deteriorate, competition
increases unexpectedly, liquidity declines, or debt/EBITDA exceeds
6.0x once operations are open.

Peninsula Pacific Entertainment Development, LLC owns and operates
seven regional gaming properties with wholly-owned real estate in
New Hampshire (five properties), Kansas and Iowa (property under
construction). Total annual revenue is over $170 million.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Gaming
published in September 2025.

The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.

PHOENIX FUND: OCIF's Enforcement Proceeding Can Proceed
-------------------------------------------------------
Judge Enrique S. Lamoutte of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Puerto Rico granted the motion of the Office of the
Commissioner of Financial Institutions of Puerto Rico to continue
its enforcement action against The Phoenix Fund LLC.

The Fund is subject to the regulatory oversight and authority of
the Office of the Commissioner of Financial Institutions of Puerto
Rico ("OCIF").

Prior to the petition for relief, the OCIF initiated an examination
of the Fund's operations. The OCIF was unable to complete the
examination due to the Fund's alleged noncompliance. As a result,
the OCIF filed an Amended Complaint and Order of (I) Cease and
Desist, (II) Liquidation of Private Equity Fund and (III) Interim
and Permanent Appointment of Receiver to Carry Out the Liquidation
on or about February 18, 2026 (the "Amended Complaint and
Receivership Order"). The filing of the Amended Complaint and
Receivership Order commenced an administrative enforcement
proceeding against the Fund styled Office of the Commissioner of
Financial Institutions v. The Phoenix Fund LLC, Case No. C25-V-001
(the "Enforcement Action"). Following the petition date, the OCIF
filed two interrelated motions: a Motion For Entry of an Order to
Continue OCIF's Enforcement Action Or, In The Alternative For
Relief From The Automatic Stay ("Motion to Continue Enforcement
Action"), and an Urgent Motion For Order Recognizing Authority of
the Pre-Petition Receiver, Driven, P.S.C., to Act on Behalf of
Debtor-In-Possession ("Motion Recognizing Authority", each filed on
February 25, 2026, and relating to the Enforcement Action.

The Motion to Continue Enforcement Action requests that the Court
enter an order allowing for the continuation of the Enforcement
Action relating to the Amended Complaint and Receivership Order
under Case No. C25-V-001, and argues that the automatic stay
provisions of Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code do not apply to
bar or stay OCIF's regulatory and police powers against the Fund.
The Motion Recognizing Authority seeks, on an emergency basis, the
entry of an order recognizing the authority of Driven, P.S.C.
("Driven" or the "Receiver") to act as debtor-in-possession on
behalf of the Fund.

According to the Court, irrespective of the merits of the
proceedings before the OCIF, the intervention by the OCIF was due
to the lack of compliance by the Fund of its obligations under the
Incentive Code, resulting in the issuance of a Consent Order and,
ultimately, liquidation of the Fund to safeguard the public welfare
of the Puerto Rico financial system. The Enforcement Action in no
manner or form benefits the OCIF or any related Puerto Rico
government agency with any financial interest, nor does it
constitute a collection action. Therefore, the police power
exception of Section 362(b)(4) applies.

The Court concludes the automatic stay is inapplicable to the
continued prosecution of the Enforcement Action in the OCIF's
administrative forum, including the enforcement of the Amended
Complaint and Receiver Order, the Consent Order, and the
appointment of Driven, P.S.C., as Receiver with authority act as
debtor-in-possession, pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Sec. 362(b)(4).
Accordingly, both the Motion to Continue Enforcement Action and the
Motion Recognizing Authority are granted.

A status conference is scheduled for May 19, 2026.

PLANVIEW PARENT: Moody's Cuts CFR to Caa1 & Alters Outlook to Neg.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings downgraded the ratings of Planview Parent, Inc.
(Planview), including its Corporate Family Rating to Caa1 from B3,
Probability of Default Rating to Caa1-PD from B3-PD, Senior Secured
First Lien Bank Credit Facilities ratings to B3 from B2 (Term Loan
and Revolving Credit Facility), and the Senior Secured Second Lien
Bank Credit Facility rating to Caa3 from Caa2. The outlook was
changed to negative from stable.

The rating actions reflect Planview's elevated financial leverage
and refinancing risks related to its December 2027 debt maturities,
particularly as its debt is trading at elevated yields relative to
many software peers. The rating actions incorporate governance
considerations as Moody's believes Planview's high leverage and
near-term (December 2027) maturities increase the risk of a
distressed exchange.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Planview's Caa1 CFR is constrained by refinancing risk given
current trading prices and high leverage, with Moody's adjusted
debt-to-EBITDA of approximately 13.2x (or 9.2x excluding foreign
currency and derivative related losses and including change in
deferred revenue) amid intense competition. At the same time, the
company has a strong position within the enterprise-grade Portfolio
Project Management (PPM) software market, with a particular edge
and well-regarded products in Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM)
and Digital Product Development (DPD), as well as solid EBITDA
margins.

Leverage has remained elevated following its leveraged buyout by
TPG Capital and TA Associates in 2020 and subsequent debt-funded
acquisitions, including the purchase of Sciforma in February 2025.
Integration costs and down-sell pressures in 2024 and 2025 further
contributed to high-leverage. Moody's expects leverage to decline
to 8.3x (including change in deferred revenue) in 2026 as revenue
grows low-single digits and integration and cloud migration costs
roll off.

The company maintains its leadership position in SPM and DPD given
the rich functionality that enables C-suite executives to monitor
portfolios of projects, including resource allocation, timeframes,
financial targets, alignment with strategic objectives, among other
items. The company continues to broaden and improve its product
suite with the launch of AI powered, Planview Anvi. However, it
faces strong competition with divisions of larger, better
capitalized and smaller, higher growth companies.

The negative outlook reflects the potential for a distressed
exchange as the company approaches its next maturity in December
2027.

Liquidity is adequate, supported by $65 million of cash on balance
sheet as of December 31, 2025, Moody's expectations for $25 million
of free cash flow in 2026, and an undrawn $75 million revolving
credit facility expiring in December 2027.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

Given the negative outlook, an upgrade is unlikely in the near
term. Moody's could upgrade Planview's ratings if the company
successfully addresses upcoming maturities, and improves financial
leverage and free cash flow through revenue and earnings growth
such that the risk of distressed exchange declines.

Moody's could downgrade the ratings if the company fails to
refinance its upcoming debt maturities or the likelihood of a
distressed exchange increases. Weakening liquidity or revenue and
EBITDA declines could also result in a downgrade of the ratings.

Planview, headquartered in Austin, Texas, is a provider of Project
and Portfolio Management (PPM) and Digital Product Development
(DPD) software across a broad set of enterprise customers and
mid-sized customers. Planview is controlled by funds affiliated
with private equity sponsors TPG Capital and TA Associates.
Revenues for the LTM ended September 30, 2025, are estimated to be
$477 million pro-forma for the Sciforma acquisition, which closed
in February 2025.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Software
published in December 2025.

The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.

POSEIDON INVESTMENT: S&P Upgrades ICR to 'CCC+', Outlook Positive
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings raised its rating on Poseidon Investment
Intermediate L.P. to 'CCC+' from 'D'.

S&P said, "At the same time, we assigned our 'B' issue-level rating
and '1' recovery rating to the new $506 million first-lien,
first-out term loan maturing 2031 and our 'CCC' issue-level rating
and '5' recovery rating to the new $499 million first-lien
second-out term loan due 2032.
"The positive outlook reflects our expectation that we could raise
the rating if company achieves its base case growth strategy, which
would result in at least breakeven FOCF generation over the next 12
months and S&P Global Ratings-adjusted leverage of 8.0x-8.5x."

Poseidon concluded its financial restructuring process under
Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

The company reduced its balance sheet debt by about $829 million,
improving leverage and reducing annual interest expense. S&P
expects the modest increase in earnings and reduction in debt will
reduce S&P Global Ratings-adjusted leverage to 8.0x-8.5x in 2026
compared to 14.8x in fiscal 2025 (ended Sep. 2025) and increase
EBITDA to cash interest to 1.0x-1.5x compared to 0.6x in fiscal
2025.

S&P expects earnings growth from the company's new go-to-market
growth strategy and margin improvement initiatives alongside a
reduction in cash interest expense could lead to positive free
operating cash (FOCF) generation on a sustained basis. However,
earnings will remain pressured by the highly competitive packaging
market alongside weak customer demand.

Poseidon successfully emerged from Chapter 11, reducing debt and
annual interest expense to improve credit metrics. On March 2,
Poseidon announced it emerged from bankruptcy and issued a new $100
million ABL facility, $506 million first lien first out term loan,
and a $499 million first lien second out term loan. The company's
liquidity as of March 2, 2026 includes $103 million of cash on its
balance sheet and $77 million of availability on its ABL facility.
As part of the reorganization, Clearlake Capital will continue to
be Poseidon's largest shareholder.

The transaction reduces the company's balance sheet debt by about
$829 million, which significantly improves S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted credit metrics. S&P said, "We expect S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted debt to EBITDA of 8.0x-8.5x in 2026 compared to
14.8x in 2025. In addition, pro forma the emergence from
bankruptcy, we expect annual interest expense of $80 million-$85
million compared to $171.4 million in 2025." The large reduction in
interest expense will immediately improve S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted EBITDA to cash interest expense to 1.0x-1.5x in
2026 compared to 0.6x in fiscal 2025.

S&P said, "In our view, to sustain positive FOCF, the company will
need to successfully execute its growth strategy and cost-saving
initiatives. The company has consecutively reported a FOCF deficit
over the past four years, driven by high interest expense and a
decline in earnings as industry-wide destocking depressed volumes
from Poseidon's higher-margin personal care and nutrition and
wellness segments. Furthermore, Poseidon faced high restructuring
costs following the acquisitions of Alpha Packaging and Grupo
Edid.

S&P said, "In 2026, we expect the company's focus on augmenting its
product portfolio will allow it to modestly expand its wallet share
with existing customers and lead to low-single-digit percent
revenue growth. In addition, strategic price increases, procurement
savings initiatives, a reduction in restructuring costs, and the
elimination of nonrecurring consulting fees should marginally
improve S&P Global Ratings-adjusted EBITDA margins to 17.5%-18.0%.
We expect continued investments in its asset base and cost-savings
initiatives will further improve margins to above 18% in 2027.
Overall, we believe revenue growth coupled with a modest expansion
of EBITDA margins will translate to earnings growth that supports
break-even FOCF generation over the next 12 months and positive
FOCF generation in 2027. On that note, we still expect negative
reported FOCF in 2026 due to cash burn in the first quarter of
fiscal 2026 outweighing Poseidon's break-even FOCF in the remaining
three quarters."

Despite a significantly lower cash interest burden, the operating
environment remains challenging. S&P economist project U.S. GDP
growth around 2% in 2026 and 2027 and consumer spending around 2%
in 2026 and 1.8% in 2027. Before considering a higher rating, S&P
would like to see the company successfully execute its new
go-to-market strategy and margin improvement initiatives, resulting
in positive FOCF generation on a sustained basis.

S&P said, "The positive outlook on Poseidon reflects the
possibility that we could raise our ratings on Poseidon over the
next 12 months if the company improves earnings through
low-single-digit percent revenue growth and modest EBITDA margin
expansion, leading to sustainable FOCF generation.

"We could lower the rating on Poseidon if the company fails to
execute its improvement strategy, resulting in continued cash flow
deficits and a weakened liquidity position, raising the risk of a
near-term default or transaction we would deem as distressed.

"We could raise the rating if Poseidon demonstrated consistent
earnings growth and positive FOCF generation that we believe is
sustainable."

PRIMO BRANDS: Moody's Affirms 'B1' CFR, Outlook Remains Positive
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings affirmed Primo Brands Corporation's (Primo Brands)
Corporate Family Rating at B1, and Probability of Default Rating at
B1-PD. Additionally, Moody's affirmed the Ba3 ratings for Primo
Brands' $750 million senior secured first lien revolving credit
facility and $3.098 billion senior secured first lien term loan.
Moody's also affirmed the Ba3 ratings on Primo Water Holdings
Inc.'s (Primo Water) exchanged Euro denominated backed senior
secured notes due 2028 and exchanged US dollar-denominated backed
senior secured notes due 2029, and the B3 rating on the exchange US
dollar-demominated backed senior unsecured notes due 2029. These
notes are co-issued by subsidiaries Primo Water Holdings Inc. and
Triton Water Holdings, Inc. (Triton Water) and guaranteed by Primo
Brands. The outlooks for Primo Brands and Primo Water remain
positive. The speculative grade liquidity rating remains SGL-1.

The affirmation of the B1 CFR reflects Primo Brands' meaningful
large scale following the November 2024 BlueTriton merger, which
has strengthened the company's overall business profile and reduced
earnings volatility. However, integration synergies from the merger
are at a slower pace than originally anticipated and some
interruptions to its direct delivery business are resulting in
lower than expected growth in EBITDA necessary for deleveraging.
Additionally, there exists event risks for share repurchases to
facilitate One Rock's exit of its remaining equity stake in the
company or to reduce the downward pressure on the stock price from
secondary share sales. Moody's expects the company to continue to
prioritize reinvestment in its business to drive modest EBITDA with
second priority given to tuck-in acquisitions and share
repurchases. Moody's expects debt repayment to be limited to
slightly above required term loan amortization. This could
contribute to a moderate deleveraging pace if the company is
challenged to reverse revenue declines in a selective consumer
spending environment.  

The positive outlooks reflect Moody's expectations that revenue and
earnings will continue to grow modestly and financial leverage will
continue to modestly decline through EBITDA growth, while the
company remains disciplined in not pursuing debt-financed share
repurchases. Moody's also expects the company to continue to
realize synergies and generate meaningful free cash flow that could
be used for reinvestment to drive growth and deleveraging. Moody's
expects modest improvement in operating profit over the next 12-18
months such that Moody's adjusted debt to EBITDA will approach
3.5x.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Primo Brands' B1 CFR reflects its leading position in the US
single-serve ready-to-drink bottled water segment and home and
office water delivery (HOD) business. Primo Brands also has good
business diversity through its growing filtration services
business.  The company benefits from positive consumer trends
towards healthier lifestyles in choosing beverages, a diverse
customer base, and positive industry trends due to consumers
seeking alternative sources for clean water due to the aging
municipal water infrastructure. Primo Brands' credit profile is
constrained by commodity-like single use bottled water in a highly
competitive market with large players, and some risk of volatility
both from economic downturns, which can pressure profitability in
the HOD water services business. The single serve business also
faces some long-term volume pressure in part related to
environmental concerns of pollution from plastic bottles and
containers. Primo Brands still faces some risk to integrate the two
businesses including merging systems, production and distribution
that could lead to operational disruptions or challenges realizing
synergies. The company expects to complete the integration during
the first half of 2026.  Primo Brands' credit profile is also
restricted by private equity ownership of 31.1%, which Moody's
views as a governance risk that creates event risk to facilitate
the exit of the private equity firm as it continues to reduces its
stake, as well as a dividend that limits free cash flow.

Moody's expects Primo Brands will generate good annual free cash
flow of approximately $350 million to $375 million over the next
year, which should be more than sufficient to support very good
liquidity and investment across its businesses. Moody's further
expect that debt-to-EBITDA leverage will decline modestly to around
3.5x from 3.8x as of December 31, 2025 (incorporating Moody's
adjustments) by the end of FY 2027 and the company will strive to
remain below this level given its 2.0x to 2.5x net leverage target
(3.4x as calculated by the company as of FY 2025) primarily from
the realization of synergies that will facilitate EBITDA growth.
However, Moody's expects the company will likely continue to focus
on dividend increases and share buybacks with any deleveraging
coming from EBITDA growth and modest required debt amortization.

The SGL-1 speculative grade liquidity rating reflects Primo Brands'
sizable cash balance of $376 million as of December 31, 2025, good
expected free cash flow (after payment of dividends) of
approximately $350 million to $375 million and absence of
meaningful debt maturities over the next 12 months. Primo Brands
also has access to an undrawn $750 million revolver that expires in
2030 and provides additional committed liquidity.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

The ratings could be upgraded if there is consistent organic
revenue growth with a stable to higher operating margin, and good
realization of planned merger synergies without disrupting the
combined company's operations. The company would also need to
sustain debt to EBITDA leverage below 3.5x, generate strong and
consistent free cash flow and maintain good liquidity to be
upgraded.

The ratings could be downgraded if profitability weakens due to
volume declines or margin contraction, free cash flow is low, or
liquidity weakens. Debt financed share repurchases, dividend
increases, or debt to EBITDA maintained above 5.5x on Moody's
adjusted basis could also lead to a downgrade.

Primo Brands Corporation, based in Tampa, Florida and Stamford,
Connecticut, is a leading branded beverage company specializing in
healthy hydration solutions. The company offers a wide range of
water products across various formats, channels, price points, and
consumer occasions. The company produces and sells both regional
spring water and purified national water brands through retail
sales channels and its ReadyRefresh(R) and Primo Water
direct-to-consumer and office delivery services. In November 2024,
the company was formed through the merger of BlueTriton Brands Inc.
(BlueTriton) and Primo Water. Primo Water is majority publicly
owned and traded on the NYSE under ticker "PRMB". Additionally,
private equity firm, One Rock Capital Partners LLC, owns 31.3% of
publicly traded shares.   Revenue was approximately $6.7 billion
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Soft Beverages
published in September 2025.

The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.


PUERTO RICO: Rebollo Lopez's Claims Dismissed Without Prejudice
---------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Laura Taylor Swain of the U.S. District Court for the
District of Puerto Rico dismissed without prejudice all claims
asserted by or on behalf of deceased plaintiff Francisco Rebollo
Lopez in the adversary proceeding captioned as ANTONIO NEGRON
GARCIA; FRANCISCO REBOLLO LOPEZ; FEDERICO HERNANDEZ DENTON; LIANA
FIOL MATTA; ANABELLE RODRIGUEZ RODRIGUEZ; Plaintiffs, -v- LUIS
COLLAZO RODRIGUEZ, IN HIS CAPACITY AS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND
ADMINISTRATOR OF THE JUDICIARY RETIREMENT SYSTEM; AND THE
RETIREMENT BOARD OF PUERTO RICO; Defendants, Adv. Proc. No.
24-00089-LTS (D.P.R.) pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(2).

On December 17, 2024, Antonio Negron Garcia, Francisco Rebollo
Lopez, Federico Hernandez Denton, Liana Fiol Matta and Anabelle
Rodriguez Rodriguez, retired justices of the Supreme Court of
Puerto Rico (the "Petitioners"), filed a writ of mandamus against
the Retirement Board and Luis Collazo Rodriguez, in his capacity as
Executive Director of the Retirement Board.

The Petitioners argued that under Puerto Rico law, (specifically
Act 12-1954), their pensions, which they earned during their terms
of service, must be linked to the salaries of active judges. They
asserted that a recently enacted statute, Act 101-2024, increased
active judicial salaries retroactively from July 1, 2023, but the
Petitioners' pensions have not been adjusted accordingly. As a
result, the Petitioners argue that the Retirement Board's failure
to adjust their pensions and pay retroactive increases violates Act
12-1954 and certain Puerto Rico constitutional protections
regarding public contractual obligations, due process, and judicial
independence.

To enforce their alleged rights, the Petitioners filed the writ of
mandamus ordering the Retirement Board and its Executive Director
to:

   (i) adjust the pensions of retired judges to reflect current
salary scales; and

  (ii) pay retroactive increases they believe are mandated by law.

On January 18, 2022, the District Court entered an order (the
"Confirmation Order") confirming the Modified Eighth Amended Title
III Joint Plan of Adjustment for the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico,
et al., United States District Court for the District of Puerto
Rico (the "Plan") along with Findings of Fact and Conclusions of
Law. The Plan went effective on March 15, 2022 (the "Effective
Date").

The Plan addresses the treatment of retired JRS participants in
Classes 51B and 51E. Under both sections, retired JRS participants,
including Petitioners, are entitled to receive benefits accrued as
of the date of the Effective Date, with any future cost of living
adjustments eliminated.

Thus, the Plan provides for the freezing of pension benefits as of
the Effective Date. The benefit freeze applies to judges hired both
before and after the Effective Date. Id. Moreover, the Plan
preempts certain sections of Act 12-1954 (codified at 4 L.P.R.A
Secs. 233, et seq.) -- specifically the sections of the JRS's
enabling act pertaining to the calculation of pension benefits for
pensioners benefiting from the JRS defined benefit program.
Further, the Plan also preempts all "provisions of the Commonwealth
Constitution, Commonwealth statues, executive orders, rules,
regulations, and policies that create, require, or enforce employee
pension and other benefits that are modified and/or preserved in
whole or in part" by the Plan, as inconsistent with PROMESA.

Additionally, subject to certain limited exceptions, the
Confirmation Order prohibits the government of Puerto Rico, for ten
years after the Effective Date, from enacting new legislation,
implementing existing legislation, or taking any other action to
create or increase defined benefit pension payments beyond what the
Plan allows, prohibitions that are applicable to the Executive
Director and the Retirement Board.

Finally, the FFCL provides that the Plan and Confirmation Order
would be enforceable against other interested parties and officials
alongside the Commonwealth, and that  ny contrary Commonwealth law
provisions were also preempted.

The Civil Action directly implicates and contravenes the Plan,
Confirmation Order, and FFCL by demanding an increase to the level
of pension benefits for retired JRS participants
beyond that provided for, or allowed under, the Plan.

REMEMBER ME SENIOR: PCO Reports No Change in Resident Care
----------------------------------------------------------
Stacy Lynn Archer, the patient care ombudsman, filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee her sixth
report regarding the quality of patient care provided by Remember
Me Senior Care, LLC.

For the period from Jan. 7 to March 6, the PCO reported mixed
family feedback regarding staffing at Remember Me, with some
expressing concerns about staffing levels and others reporting
satisfaction with the care provided.

The PCO relayed family concerns to Ashley Howard and Tracy Sneed,
sometimes anonymously, and reported elder abuse allegations
involving two residents; the employee was dismissed and the matter
referred to police and Adult Protective Services.

The PCO does not believe residents at Remember Me are at risk and
finds the quality of care consistent with pre-bankruptcy levels and
in compliance with Tennessee regulatory standards.

The PCO notes that the bankruptcy resulted from economic factors,
not care deficiencies or regulatory violations, and, based on a
year of visits, finds that Remember Me has a strong record of
quality care with only minor complaints.

RESTORATION DOCTOR: Gets Interim OK to Use Cash Collateral
----------------------------------------------------------
The United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of
Florida, Fort Lauderdale Division, issued an order authorizing
Restoration Doctor LLC to use cash collateral on an interim basis.


The court authorized the debtor to use cash collateral through
March 18 to pay ordinary and necessary business expenses according
to an approved operating budget. The debtor may exceed individual
budget line items by up to 10%, or exceed them by more than that
amount as long as the total excess across the entire budget does
not surpass 10% of the overall budget.

The order also requires the debtor to maintain financial
transparency. All expenses must be documented and submitted in
detailed monthly operating reports filed with the bankruptcy court.
This reporting ensures that the debtor's use of funds remains
consistent with the approved budget and the requirements of the
Chapter 11 process.

To protect the interests of the primary creditor, the court granted
replacement liens to Insured Advocacy Group on the debtor's current
and future property, including real and personal assets and any
related proceeds or profits. These liens help secure the creditor
against any reduction in collateral value while the debtor uses the
funds.

The court also scheduled another interim hearing on March 18.

Moody's have upgraded Rithm's long-term senior unsecured rating to
B2 from B3 to reflect the continued diversification of the
company's earnings base across its operating subsidiaries and
reportable business segments. As a result, in a default scenario,
loss severity for senior unsecured creditors would be reduced by
the value and diversification of Rithm's operating businesses and
the over collateralization present in its priority secured debt
structure. Together, these factors support the improved recovery
prospects that underpin the B2 senior unsecured rating.

Over the past several years, Rithm has executed a series of
acquisitions and strategic expansions that have increased the
contribution from business lines beyond its core origination and
servicing operations. While the origination and servicing segment
remains the primary driver of earnings, the other segments exhibit
limited correlation with each other and with the core business,
resulting in greater credit diversification.

Rithm's secured funding arrangements – primarily its repurchase
facilities – constitute the majority of obligations ranking ahead
of the senior unsecured debt. These facilities benefit from
conservative advance rates, resulting in meaningful over
collateralization, and the company mitigates its interest rate risk
through a combination of hedging strategies and natural business
offsets that are inversely correlated with rate movements.

The affirmation of Rithm's B1 CFR reflects the company's solid
capitalization, diversified earnings profile, and adequate
liquidity position. The CFR also incorporates Rithm's evolving
strategic direction, the asset risk inherent in its investments in
non-agency loans and bonds, the encumbrance of earning assets, and
key person risk associated with its CEO. Although Rithm's
acquisitions have enhanced earnings and asset diversity, they also
introduce operational and integration risks. These risks are
partially mitigated by management's demonstrated ability to
integrate acquired businesses within the company's corporate
structure.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations that Rithm will
maintain solid capitalization and profitability, and adequate
liquidity over the next 12-18 months.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

The ratings could be upgraded if the company successfully
integrates its acquisitions while achieving solid profitability and
capitalization; for example, with net income to average managed
assets and tangible common equity to tangible managed assets
(TCE/TMA, Moody's Ratings adjusted) consistently remaining above
2.5% and 17.5%, respectively. In addition, increasing its reliance
on unsecured funding would be positive for the ratings.

The ratings could be downgraded if the integration of the
companies' origination and servicing platforms were to materially
weaken Rithm's financial performance. The ratings could also be
downgraded if Moody's expects capitalization as expressed by
TCE/TMA (Moody's Ratings adjusted) to fall and remain below 15%, if
profitability deteriorates such as net income to average manage
assets falling below 1%, or if the company's liquidity position
deteriorates materially.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Finance
Companies published in July 2024.

Rithm Capital Corp.'s "Assigned Standalone Assessment" adjusted
score of b1 is set four notches below the "Financial Profile Score"
score of Baa3 to reflect the company's acquisitive strategy,
refinancing risk from short-term funding reliance, and operational
and regulatory risk.

ROMARK CREDIT II: Moody's Ups Rating on $23.25MM E Notes to Ba1
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has upgraded the ratings on the following notes
issued by Romark Credit Funding II, Ltd.:

US$51,000,000 Class B Senior Secured Fixed Rate Notes due 2039,
Upgraded to Aaa (sf); previously on September 20, 2021 Assigned Aa3
(sf)

US$17,000,000 Class C Mezzanine Secured Deferrable Fixed Rate Notes
due 2039, Upgraded to Aa3 (sf); previously on September 20, 2021
Assigned A3 (sf)

US$17,000,000 Class D Mezzanine Secured Deferrable Fixed Rate Notes
due 2039, Upgraded to A3 (sf); previously on September 20, 2021
Assigned Baa3 (sf)

US$23,250,000 Class E Junior Secured Deferrable Fixed Rate Notes
due 2039, Upgraded to Ba1 (sf); previously on September 20, 2021
Assigned Ba3 (sf)

Romark Credit Funding II, Ltd., issued in September 2021, is a
managed cashflow CBO. The notes are collateralized primarily by a
portfolio of corporate bonds and loans. The transaction's
reinvestment period will end in October 2026.

A comprehensive review of all credit ratings for the respective
transaction has been conducted during a rating committee.

RATINGS RATIONALE

These rating actions reflect the benefit of the shortening of the
portfolio's weighted average life (WAL) since September 2021, which
reduces the time the rated notes are exposed to the credit risk of
the underlying portfolio. Moody's also considered that deal will be
exiting its reinvestment period in October 2026, which increases
the likelihood that the deal will continue to maintain certain
collateral quality measures that currently outperform their related
covenants. In particular, Moody's noted that the deal currently
benefits from interest income on portfolio assets that
significantly exceeds the fixed rate of interest payable on the
rated notes, due to the deal's exposure to approximately 30% in
floating-rate loans that Moody's calculated to have a weighted
average spread (WAS) of 4.07%. Moody's also notes that, based on
Moody's calculations, the tranaction's current weighted average
rating factor (WARF) is significantly lower at 2763, compared to
its current covenant of 3188.

No action was taken on the Class A notes because its expected loss
remain commensurate with its current rating, after taking into
account the CBO's latest portfolio information, its relevant
structural features and its actual over-collateralization and
interest coverage levels.

Moody's modeled the transaction using a cash flow model based on
the Binomial Expansion Technique, as described in "Collateralized
Loan Obligations" rating methodology published in October 2025.

The key model inputs Moody's used in Moody's analysis, such as par,
weighted average rating factor, diversity score, and weighted
average recovery rate, are based on Moody's published methodology
and could differ from the trustee's reported numbers. For modeling
purposes, Moody's used the following base-case assumptions:

Performing par and principal proceeds balance: $340,000,000

Diversity Score: 50

Weighted Average Rating Factor (WARF): 3188

Weighted Average Spread (WAS): 5.20%

Weighted Average Coupon (WAC): 5.20%

Weighted Average Recovery Rate (WARR): 35.43%

Weighted Average Life (WAL): 6.0 years

In addition to base case analysis, Moody's ran additional scenarios
where outcomes could diverge from the base case. The additional
scenarios consider one or more factors individually or in
combination, and include: defaults by obligors whose low ratings or
debt prices suggest distress, defaults by obligors with potential
refinancing risk, deterioration in the credit quality of the
underlying portfolio, and lower recoveries on defaulted assets.

Methodology Used for the Rating Action:

The principal methodology used in these ratings was "Collateralized
Loan Obligations" published in October 2025.

Factors that Would Lead to an Upgrade or Downgrade of the Ratings:

The performance of the rated notes is subject to uncertainty. The
performance of the rated notes is sensitive to the performance of
the underlying portfolio, which in turn depends on economic and
credit conditions that may change. The Manager's investment
decisions and management of the transaction will also affect the
performance of the rated notes.


ROOF EZ: Gets Interim OK to Use Cash Collateral
-----------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, Fort
Myers Division, issued a second interim order authorizing Roof EZ
Inc. to use cash collateral.

Under the order, the Debtor is authorized to use cash collateral to
pay court-approved expenses, including Subchapter V Trustee interim
compensation, and other necessary business expenses listed in a
budget attached to the order.

The Debtor may exceed individual budget line items by up to 10% or
exceed them further as long as the total additional spending across
the entire budget does not surpass 10% of the overall budget. Any
additional spending must either be approved by the secured
creditors (referred to as the "Relevant Entities") or qualify as
administrative expenses.

The order also imposes obligations on the Debtor. The Debtor must
comply with all duties required under the Bankruptcy Code and allow
the secured creditors access to its business records and premises
within 48 hours of request, provided it does not disrupt
operations.

Additionally, the creditors will receive a replacement lien on the
Debtor's post-petition assets with the same priority as their
pre-petition lien.

The court scheduled the next hearing for March 25.

A copy of the court's order and the Debtor's budget is available at

                   About Roof EZ Inc.

Roof EZ Inc. sought protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. M.D. Fla. Case No. 25-02539) on December
19, 2025, listing between $100,001 and $500,000 in assets and
between $1 million and $10 million in liabilities.

Judge Luis Ernesto Rivera II presides over the case.

Michael R. Dal Lago, Esq., represents the Debtor as legal counsel.


RUNITONETIME LLC: Plan Exclusivity Period Extended to May 11
------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Alfredo R. Perez of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Texas extended RunItOneTime LLC and its
affiliates' exclusive periods to file a plan of reorganization and
obtain acceptance thereof to May 11 and July 9, 2026,
respectively.

As shared by Troubled Company Reporter, the Debtors explain that
the application of factors to the facts and circumstances of the
Chapter 11 Cases demonstrates that the requested extension of the
Exclusive Periods is both appropriate and necessary.

First, the size and complexity of the issues attendant to these
cases warrants approval of the requested relief. The cases have
involved numerous first day motions, employment of a broad slate of
professionals, and the administration of assets and claims across a
substantial number of subsidiaries. The complexity of these Chapter
11 Cases is further evidenced by the contested hearings and
litigation surrounding approval of the DIP Facility on a final
basis.

Second, termination of the Exclusive Periods at this juncture would
adversely impact the Debtors' efforts to preserve and maximize the
value of their estates and advance these Chapter 11 Cases. The
Debtors are engaged in a robust sale process of substantially all
of their assets, as approved by the Court and some of these asset
sales have already closed. If exclusivity were terminated, the
Debtors could face the prospect of competing plans, which would
introduce uncertainty and potentially delay or derail the progress
made toward a value-maximizing resolution.

Third, the Debtors obtained critical first day relief, secured
postpetition financing, retained necessary professionals, completed
their schedules and statements, and implemented procedures for
claims and professional compensation. The Debtors have also
advanced their sale and restructuring efforts, demonstrating
significant progress toward a successful reorganization and
satisfaction of the third and fourth factors.

Fourth, the Debtors do not seek the extension of the Exclusive
Periods as a means to exert pressure on the relevant parties in
interest. Instead, the extension will allow the Debtors to continue
making progress with key stakeholders. The Debtors seek the
requested extension of the Exclusive Periods out of an abundance of
caution simply to ensure the progress made to date is not upended
by a potential loss of their Exclusive Periods.

SAILORMEN INC: Seeks to Sell Restaurants at Auction
---------------------------------------------------
Sailormen, Inc., seeks permission from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of Florida, Miami Division, to sell
substantially all Assets at auction, free and clear of liens,
claims, interests, and encumbrances.

Founded in 1984 for the purpose of owning and operating Popeyes
restaurants as a franchisee pursuant to a franchise agreement with
Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen, Inc., the Debtor was acquired by Bob
Berg and Steve Wemple in July 1987. At the time, Sailormen operated
11 Popeyes stores in the Miami, Florida area.

Through relocations and organic growth, Sailormen grew its
portfolio to 15 stores by the end of 1995. In late 1995, Sailormen
acquired 5 underperforming stores in Birmingham, Alabama. From 1996
until the end of 2000, Sailormen successfully completed eight
additional acquisitions, ranging in size from a single unit to 72
units, and established itself in several new markets, operating in
seven states: (i) Florida, (ii) Alabama, (iii) Georgia, (iv)
Illinois, (v) Louisiana, (vi) Missouri, and (vii) Mississippi.
Between 2012 and 2018, Sailormen exited the markets in Alabama,
Illinois, Louisiana, Missouri, and Mississippi to concentrate on
development in Florida and Georgia. At the time of the filing of
this Motion, Sailormen operates 119 Popeyes Restaurants in Florida
and Georgia.

Interfoods of America, Inc, a Nevada Corp., owns 100% of the
outstanding capital stock of Sailormen.

Like many other businesses, and particularly restaurants, the
Debtor has faced significant challenges over the past 12 months.
Various macroeconomic factors have caused tremendous uncertainty
and disruption within the business. Those factors include, among
others, the trailing national impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on
restaurant operations, consumer choice, high inflation, increased
borrowing rates, and an increasingly limited qualified labor force.


Due to low performance and increasing losses, the Debtor made the
difficult decision to sell 16 restaurants in an attempt to improve
its financial performance and to stabilize the business, but the
purchaser subsequently closed, and the Debtor remained liable on
the lease guarantees.

The Debtor employs Peak Franchise Capital LLC to market and solicit
interests for the purchase of the Debtor's assets.

The Debtor has directed Peak to market the Purchased Assets as a
complete portfolio, or as any portion of 6 regions, consisting of
Southeast Florida, Central Florida, Northeast Florida, Florida
Panhandle, South Alabama, and South Georgia.

The Debtor's professionals hope to secure the Stalking Horse
Agreement(s) by offering a uniform set of bid protections for each
Stalking Horse Bidder, in the form of a break-up fee of 2.5% of the
Purchase Price proposed in each Stalking Horse Agreement, plus a
maximum reimbursement of $1,000 per Store for reasonable and
substantiated expenses incurred in connection with each Stalking
Horse Bidder’s submission.

Each of the Stalking Horse Agreements shall be subject to higher
and better Bids that may be submitted prior to the Bid Deadline.

The Bidding Procedures are designed to promote participation and
active bidding at an Auction and to ensure an orderly Sale
Process.

Potential Bidders may submit Qualified Bids for all or some portion
of the Purchased Assets through June 11, 2026 at 5:00 pm (Eastern),
or such other date as is determined by the Debtor in accordance
with the
Bidding Procedures Order.

To effectuate the Sale Process, the Debtor hereby requests that the
Court authorize the scheduling of the Auction, as set forth in the
Bidding Procedures Order, for June 15, 2026, at 10:00 am (Eastern),
at the JW Marriott Miami, 1109 Brickell Avenue, Miami, Florida
33131.

In the event that fewer than two Qualified Bids and/or Stalking
Horse Bids are submitted for the Purchased Assets, the Debtor will
cancel the Auction and seek to consummate the proposed Sale with
any Stalking Horse Bidders and/or any other Potential Bidders who
submitted Qualified Bids.

The Debtor further asks the Court to schedule a hearing for June
18, 2026 to consider and approve the Sale and to resolve any
objections to the assumption and assignment of the Proposed Assumed
Leases

A summary of the bidding procedures is also provided.
https://urlcurt.com/u?l=MEg0e0

As part of the Sale Process, the Debtor will serve by first-class
mail, postage prepaid, a cure notice concerning each executory
contract or unexpired lease that is proposed to be assumed and
assigned – including, without limitation, each Proposed Assumed
Lease.  

In the event that the Debtor and the non-Debtor party cannot
resolve the Cure Amount Objections, the Debtor shall segregate any
disputed Cure Amounts pending the resolution of any such disputes
by the Court or mutual agreement of the parties.

The purpose of sale and bidding procedures is to promote
competition in order to maximize the value of the Debtor's assets.

The Debtor has determined, in its reasonable business judgment,
that a sale of the Purchased Assets according to the Bidding
Procedures is warranted.

The Debtor submits that the proposed Bid Protections will not
unduly burden the Debtor’s estate or impair the interests of any
parties in interest.

SELECT MEDICAL: Moody's Puts 'Ba3' CFR on Review for Downgrade
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings placed the ratings of Select Medical Holdings
Corporation ("Select Medical"), on review for downgrade, including
the Ba3 Corporate Family Rating, Ba3-PD Probability of Default
rating. The ratings of Select Medical Corporation including its Ba1
senior secured bank credit facilities and B1 senior unsecured notes
were also on review for downgrade. The speculative grade liquidity
rating remains unchanged at SGL-1. Previously, the outlook was
stable.

The review for downgrade is prompted by the announcement on March
02, 2026, that Select Medical, a publicly-traded company, has
entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by a Welsh,
Carson, Anderson & Stowe ("WCAS" and, together with Mr. Ortenzio
and Mr. Jackson, the "consortium", representing an enterprise value
of up to $3.9 billion. The transaction, which has been unanimously
approved by Select Medical's Board of Directors, is expected to
close mid 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including
approval by Select Medical's shareholders and receipt of required
regulatory approvals. The merger is not subject to a financing
condition.

The review for downgrade reflects governance risk considerations
related to the potential for more aggressive financial strategies
including the potential for a more highly leveraged capital
structure as a result of the take-private LBO.

RATINGS RATIONALE / FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR
DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

The ratings review will focus on the details of the financing that
will be used to fund the buyout. These details include the sources
of funding, financial leverage, and ultimate capital structure.
Financial policy under new sponsor ownership will also be
considered. The company's forward liquidity position, business
strategy, and deleveraging plans will also be key considerations.

Excluding the ratings review, Select Medical's Ba3 CFR reflects the
company's reliance on Medicare and its vulnerability to potential
reimbursement changes as well as moderately high leverage. Moody's
anticipates margins and leverage will improve from an increase in
reimbursement rates from Medicare. CMS Medicare reimbursement rates
for 2026 will increase 2.6% for inpatient rehabilitation services,
and increase 2.7% for long-term care facilities, both of which will
aid in margin expansion if adopted later this year.

Supporting the credit profile is Select's significant scale and
good business diversity and leading market positions in each of its
business segments. The company's outpatient rehabilitation business
provides both payer and geographic diversity, with limited exposure
to government payors. Moody's anticipates that earnings growth over
the next 12-18 months will come from tuck-in acquisitions, the new
in-patient rehabilitation facilities and an enhanced referral
network. Select also benefits from solid free cash flow
generation.

Select Medical is one of the largest operators of critical illness
recovery hospitals, rehabilitation hospitals, and outpatient
rehabilitation clinics in the United States based on number of
facilities. As of December 31, 2025, Select Medical operated 104
critical illness recovery hospitals in 28 states, 38 rehabilitation
hospitals in 15 states, and 1,917 outpatient rehabilitation clinics
in 39 states and the District of Columbia. At December 31, 2025,
Select Medical had operations in 39 states and the District of
Columbia.

The principal methodology used in these ratings was Business and
Consumer Services published in February 2026.

The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.


SHANNON WIND: Gets Final OK to Use Cash Collateral
--------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas,
Houston Division, issued a final order authorizing Shannon Wind,
LLC to use cash collateral and granting adequate protection to its
secured lenders.

Under the final order, the Debtor is authorized to use cash
collateral in accordance with a 13-week operating budget from the
petition date through the date which is the earliest to occur of
(i) the expiration of the "remedies notice period" and (b) the date
that is 150 days after the petition date (unless such date is
extended with the written consent of the pre-petition secured
creditors).  

The funds may be used for working capital, ordinary business
operations, and administrative costs related to the Chapter 11
proceedings. The Debtor must provide updated budgets periodically
and comply with spending limits, ensuring that expenses do not
exceed 115% of the approved budget over a rolling four-week
period.

The court also granted adequate protection to the pre-petition
secured creditors, including entities such as Citibank, N.A. and
Citigroup Energy Inc., which hold liens on the Debtor's collateral.
These protections include replacement liens on the Debtor's assets
and superpriority administrative claims to compensate lenders if
the value of their collateral declines during the bankruptcy case.
The Debtor acknowledged that the lenders' prepetition claims and
liens are valid, enforceable, and secured by the company's assets.

The order also establishes conditions and deadlines for the
bankruptcy process. If certain events of default occur—such as
failure to follow the budget, obtain sale approvals, or comply with
the order—the secured lenders may seek relief from the automatic
stay and enforce their rights.

Additionally, the lenders retain the right to credit bid their
claims in any sale of the Debtor's assets, while professional fees
and certain court costs are protected through a limited carve-out
to ensure payment during the case.

SKLAR EXPLORATION: Court Narrows Claims in Kim Adversary Case
-------------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Michael E. Romero of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Colorado granted the Motion to Dismiss Second Claim for
Relief filed by the Defendants and Reorganized Debtors, Sklar
Exploration Company, LLC and Sklarco LLC, in the adversary
proceeding captioned as Thomas M. Kim, Creditor Trustee of the
Sklarco Creditor Trust, Plaintiff, v. Sklar Exploration Co., LLC
and Sklarco, LLC, Defendants, Adversary Pr. No. 24-1274 MER
(Bankr. D. Co.).

The Motion seeks dismissal of one of the four breach of contract
claims asserted by Kim against the Debtors.

This dispute centers on provisions of the Second Amended and
Restated Plan of Reorganization ("Plan") confirmed in the Debtors'
main bankruptcy case in 2021. The Plan provides for the appointment
of a Creditor Trust. Kim is the appointed Trustee of the Creditor
Trust. As relevant to this dispute, the Plan provides that the
Debtors' primary secured creditor, East West Bank ("EWB"), has an
allowed claim for $24 million ("EWB Secured Claim"). The Plan
further provides the Debtors will make certain periodic payments on
EWB's Secured Claim and that the outstanding balance of the Claim
would be due and payable on the second anniversary of the Plan's
effective date (or September 7, 2023). At that point, the Plan
requires Debtors to pay the remaining balance either "through sale
of assets or refinance of the EWB Secured Claim. Such a sale or
refinance is defined as a "Monetizing Event" by the Plan. Section
8.8 of the Plan sets out how the Debtors must distribute the
proceeds from a Monetizing Event.

The Amended Complaint does not contain any factual allegations
concerning the Debtors' post-confirmation efforts to sell assets or
refinance the EWB Secured Claim. Kim does not specifically allege a
"Monetizing Event" occurred. Nevertheless, the Second Claim for
Relief alleges that, assuming a Monetizing Event did occur, the
Debtors breached sEc. 8.8 by failing to pay the Creditor Trust $3
million.

The Debtors' Motion to Dismiss argues the Second Claim is deficient
as a matter of law because nothing in Sec. 8.8 guarantees a payment
of $3 million to the Creditor Trust. Rather, Debtors characterize
§ 8.8 as a "waterfall provision" that allowed for payment to the
Creditor Trust only if sufficient funds were received from a
Monetizing Event to first pay EWB's claim in full.

Kim argues at least two provisions of the Plan are ambiguous, Sec.
8.8 and the definition of Monetizing Event in Sec. 1.62. Because of
these ambiguities, Kim argues the Court should deny the Motion to
Dismiss.

The Court agrees that, in general, the structure of the waterfall
in Sec. 8.8 is not ambiguous. What appears to be the bigger issue,
however, is the meaning of the term "refinance" or "refinancing" as
used in the definition of Monetizing Event and the provision
specifying treatment of EWB's Secured Claim. Specifically, the
parties appear to dispute whether a "refinance" required a full
payment of the EWB Secured Claim. This issue could be affected by
Sec. 8.13 of the Plan, which prohibits the Debtors from settling or
otherwise compromising the EWB Secured Claim.

The Court cannot adequately delve into these issues because the
Complaint is completely devoid of any allegations about the
occurrence of a Monetizing Event, the amount of funds resulting
from that Event, and how Debtors distributed those funds.

Kim is granted leave to amend to address the deficiencies and must
file an amended complaint on or before March 24, 2026.

SM ENERGY: Fitch Assigns 'BB+' Rating on New Sr. Unsecured Notes
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned SM Energy Company's (SM) proposed senior
unsecured notes issuance a 'BB+' rating with a Recovery Rating of
'RR4'. Proceeds from the notes are expected to be used, together
with cash or borrowings under the revolving credit facility, to
fund a tender offer to purchase up to $750 million of the $1.35
billion 8.375% senior unsecured notes due in 2028.

SM's ratings reflect the recent completion of its definitive merger
agreement with Civitas Resources (CIVI) in an all-stock transaction
valued at approximately $12.8 billion, including both companies'
net debt. The deal materially increases production scale and proved
reserves, is expected to be accretive to post-dividend FCF, and
further diversifies production. It is also modestly leveraging, as
gross debt has increased to around $8 billion from approximately
$2.7 billion.

The Stable Rating Outlook reflects debt reduction expectations over
the next few years and maintenance of production and reserves.

Key Rating Drivers

Modestly Leveraging Transaction: Fitch views the $12.8 billion
stock-for-stock exchange between SM and CIVI favorably given the
fixed exchange ratio of 1.45 CIVI shares for each SM share. SM has
a fairly conservative balance sheet, but adding CIVI's debt
increases forecast pro forma leverage to 1.7x. Despite the higher
gross debt, Fitch believes the FCF profile supports the post-close
deleveraging plan, although it increases near-term execution risk.

The company announced an agreement to sell $950 million in assets
which is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, with
proceeds expected to be used to repay the company's outstanding
notes due in 2026 and 2027. SM's recently announced capital
allocation policy targets 80% of quarterly FCF following the fixed
dividend to debt reduction and 20% to repurchase shares, supporting
expectations of further gross debt reduction in the near term.

Scale and FCF Enhancing Transaction: The proposed acquisition will
materially enhance SM's size and scale, with net acres of
approximately 797,000 and 2026 production guidance of 400-420
mboepd. This transaction adds significant inventory in the Permian
basin, which will account for 51% of production. The transaction
also adds inventory in the low-cost, high margin DJ basin, which
supports FCF generation.

Pro forma FCF is also expected to be enhanced by annual synergies
of approximately $200 million, with the potential for further $100
million upside, by 2027 through reduced overhead and G&A costs,
improved operational costs, and reduced cost of capital.

Geographic Diversification; Integration Complexity: Although Fitch
views geographic diversification as beneficial, the minimal overlap
of the combined portfolio and expanded diversity across multiple
states leads to limited upside for operational synergies and
complicates integration. Fitch also sees execution risk on the
ability to increase inventory life and address quality concerns on
acquired DJ assets.

Consistently Positive FCF: Fitch expects the combined company to
continue to generate consistently positive FCF, despite increased
combined capex, supporting credit strength. Fitch expects capex to
support low- to mid-single-digit organic production growth and
anticipates SM will use a material portion of expected positive FCF
to repay debt over the rating horizon.

Exposure to Colorado Regulatory Risk: Although approximately 51% of
production is expected to come from the Permian, the merger with
CIVI exposes SM to Colorado regulatory risk. Fitch considers
Colorado's regulatory risk to be high compared to other
hydrocarbon-producing states. However, a compromise between
operators and the Colorado government has introduced a fee on all
oil and gas production, while pausing new drilling-related ballot
measures, providing clarity on DJ operations through 2027 and
reducing near-term regulatory risk. Fitch believes the permitting
process is challenging but navigable for producers.

Peer Analysis

SM's pro forma guided production profile of approximately 400-420
mboepd is significantly larger than 'BB' range peers Matador
Resources Company (BB/Stable; 207 mboepd) and Murphy Oil
Corporation (BB+/Stable; 189 mboepd). Pro forma production is also
larger than Permian Resources Corporation (BBB-/Stable; 393 mboepd)
but is smaller than APA Corporation (BBB-/Stable; 464 mboepd),
Occidental Petroleum Corp. (BBB/Stable; 1,434 mboepd) and Ovintiv
Inc. (BBB-/Positive; 615 mboepd).

Pro forma oil percentage of production is expected to be 54%, which
is higher than its peers except for Matador Resources. The company
has maintained Fitch-calculated unhedged cash netbacks around the
peer average, and Fitch expects netbacks could improve following
operational enhancements and execution on synergies. EBITDA of the
combined company is expected to remain below its IG peers through
Fitch's forecast years.

SM's forecast pro forma leverage of 1.7x is on the higher end of
the peer group but could improve following accelerated debt
reduction.

Fitch’s Key Rating-Case Assumptions

- West Texas Intermediate oil prices of $64/bbl in 2025, $58/bbl in
2026 and 2027, and $57/bbl thereafter;

- Henry Hub natural gas prices of $3.50/mcf in 2025 and 2026,
$3.00/mcf in 2027, and $2.75 thereafter;

- Civitas merger completed in 1Q26, driving significant production
growth in 2026, followed by stable production through the remainder
of the forecast;

- Capex in line with management expectations;

- FCF prioritized for debt repayment;

- Base interest rates applicable to the company's outstanding
variable rate debt obligations reflect the current SOFR forward
curve.

Corporate Rating Tool Inputs and Scores

Fitch scored the issuer as follows, using its Corporate Rating Tool
(CRT) to produce the Standalone Credit Profile (SCP):

- Business and financial profile factors (assessment, relative
importance): Management (bbb, Lower), Sector Characteristics (bb+,
Moderate), Market & Competitive Positioning (bbb, Moderate),
Diversification and Asset Quality (bb+, Higher), Company
Operational Characteristics (bb+, Moderate), Profitability (bb+,
Higher), Financial Structure (a, Lower), and Financial Flexibility
(bbb, Moderate).

- The quantitative financial subfactors are based on custom CRT
financial period parameters: 10% weight for the historical year
2024, 10% for the forecast year 2025, 10% for the forecast year
2026, 15% for the forecast year 2027 and 55% for the forecast year
2028.

- The Governance Impact assessment of 'Good' results in no
adjustment.

- The Operating Environment Impact assessment of 'a+' results in no
adjustment.

- The SCP is 'bb+'.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Failure to successfully integrate operations following merger;

- A change in financial policy that leads to minimal gross debt
reduction;

- Material loss of operational momentum leading to
lower-than-expected production volume over a sustained period;

- Midcycle EBITDA leverage sustained above 2.5x.

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- Track record of a conservative financial policy including debt
repayment, RBL reduction, and equity-funded M&A;

- Track record of operating at current scale and maintaining the
production mix;

- Improvement in economic drilling inventory, netbacks, and reserve
life relative to peers;

- Midcycle EBITDA leverage sustained below 2.0x.

Liquidity and Debt Structure

Fitch expects SM's pro forma liquidity profile will remain adequate
and is supported by strong FCF. SM had $368 million of cash on hand
and approximately $2 billion in available borrowing capacity on its
reserve-based lending credit facility (RBL) at year-end 2025.

The company entered into a new RBL credit facility following the
transaction with elected commitments of $2.5 billion. The company
has a manageable maturity schedule with upcoming maturities in
2026, which Fitch expects to be addressed with proceeds from
planned divestitures and FCF. The announced unsecured notes
issuance and tender offer also reduces debt maturities in the near
term.

Issuer Profile

SM is an independent E&P company that operates in the Permian
Basin, South Texas, Uinta Basin, and DJ Basin. Pro forma the
Civitas merger, the company has 797,000 net acres and over 400
mboepd of production.

Date of Relevant Committee

28-Jan-2026

MACROECONOMIC ASSUMPTIONS AND SECTOR FORECASTS

Fitch's latest quarterly Global Corporates Sector Forecasts Monitor
data file which aggregates key data points used in its credit
analysis. Fitch's macroeconomic forecasts, commodity price
assumptions, default rate forecasts, sector key performance
indicators and sector-level forecasts are among the data items
included.

Climate Vulnerability Signals

SM's 2024 revenue-weighted Climate.VS of 52 by 2035 is in line with
that of its peers. SM's mix of oil, natural gas and natural gas
liquids drives the level of this signal.

The signal reflects the risks related to policies that require
lower carbon emissions over time and encourage reduced usage of
fossil fuels in favor of renewable fuels. These pose near-term
risks from higher costs driven by the need for greater focus on
reducing emissions and longer-term risks from lower demand for
fossil fuels as the world transitions toward renewable fuels. Fitch
believes meaningful energy transition will play out over several
decades.

SM has goals to reduce intensity-based Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas
emissions by 50% by 2030 from a 2019 baseline. The company also
targets zero routine flaring and non-routine flaring not to exceed
1% of natural gas production by 2023 based on the full-year
average. SM seeks to maintain its already very low methane
emissions at the company's 2020 level of 0.04 metric tonnes
CH4/MBoe or better. These targets were announced in 2021 and relate
to the company's Texas operations.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.

SM ENERGY: Moody's Rates New Senior Notes Due 2034 'B1'
-------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings assigned a B1 rating to SM Energy Company's (SM)
proposed senior notes due in 2034. Proceeds from the notes offering
will be used to fund a tender offer for as much as $750 million of
8.375% senior notes due 2028 originally issued by Civitas
Resources, Inc. (Civitas). SM's Ba3 Corporate Family Rating, Ba3-PD
Probability of Default Rating, and SGL-1 Speculative Grade
Liquidity Rating (SGL) are unchanged. The outlook is stable.

RATINGS RATIONALE

SM's proposed senior unsecured notes are rated B1, one notch below
the Ba3 CFR, reflecting the notes' subordination to the senior
secured revolving credit facility's claim to the company's assets.
The revolving credit facility has a priority claim over SM's assets
and is secured by substantially all of SM's proved oil and gas
reserves.

SM's Ba3 CFR is supported by its sizable acreage position in the
Midland basin, competitive cost structure, track record of
consistent organic production and reserve growth, its geographic
diversity, and its scale in terms of production and reserves. SM
has made progress on its debt reduction targets since closing the
acquisition of XCL Resources in the fourth quarter of 2024. The
company's recently closed merger with Civitas further increases its
scale, diversifies its geographic footprint, and provides the
company with greater investment optionality and opportunities for
synergies. The merger with Civitas has resulted in a deterioration
in SM's credit metrics and Moody's expects debt reduction to remain
a top priority as the company targets 1.0x net leverage by the end
of 2027. The recent announcement of SM's sale of a portion of its
Eagle Ford assets for $950 million will aid its efforts to reduce
debt. The merger with Civitas also entails execution risk with
respect to reducing costs and enhancing the capital efficiency of
Civitas's assets, as well as the inherent execution risk in the
achievement of synergies.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's expectations that SM will
continue to generate free cash flow and prioritize improving its
credit metrics after the closing of the merger with Civitas.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATING

SM's ratings could be upgraded if it meaningfully reduces its debt,
demonstrates an ability to maintain its increased production scale
at competitive returns on investment and maintains RCF/debt above
50%. A downgrade of SM's ratings could be considered if RCF/debt
falls below 30%, the company engages in additional leveraging M&A,
or if it engages in substantial returns to shareholders prior to
achieving its debt reduction targets.

SM Energy Company is a Denver, Colorado based publicly traded E&P
company with primary production operations in the Eagle Ford and
Austin Chalk (Webb County), the Midland Basin (Howard, Upton,
Midland and Martin Counties) of Texas, and the Uinta Basin of Utah
(Duchesne and Uintah Counties).

SMITH MICRO: Posts $29.3M Loss in Fiscal 2025, Warns of Cash Crunch
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Smith Micro Software, Inc. filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission its Annual Report on Form 10-K reporting a net
loss of $29.3 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025,
compared to a net loss of $48.7 million for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2024.

Revenues were $17.4 million and $20.6 million for the years ended
December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, representing a decrease
of $3.2 million, or 16%.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $25 million in total
assets, $6.6 million in total liabilities ($6.1 million in total
current and $462,000 in total non-current liabilities), and $18.4
million in total stockholders' deficit.

SingerLewak LLP (the Company's independent registered public
accounting firm since 2005 and headquartered in Los Angeles,
Calif.) included an explanatory paragraph in its audit report
expressing substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. The auditor cited that the Company has
suffered recurring losses from operations and has projected cash
flow requirements to meet continuing operations in excess of
current available cash. This raises substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's principal sources of liquidity are its existing cash
and cash equivalents, and cash generated by operations. As of
December 31, 2025, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were
approximately $1.5 million. Since December 31, 2024, the Company
have utilized cash collections, including the proceeds from the
sale of its ViewSpot product, cash proceeds from its various equity
and debt offerings, and cash on hand to cover routine working
capital requirements.

On July 18, 2025, the Company closed on a registered direct
offering of Common Stock and a concurrent placement of warrants,
which provided gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $1.5
million.

Additionally, on September 11, 2025 and September 29, 2025, the
Company entered into Notes Purchase Agreements, which provided
gross cash proceeds of approximately $1.2 million by September 30,
2025, and on November 5, 2025 the Company entered into registered
direct offering and private placement transactions of common stock
and warrants to purchase common stock, which provided gross cash
proceeds of $2.7 million.

The timing of the Company's anticipated revenue growth relative to
the costs of operating, maintaining, innovating and evolving its
business to respond to industry trends and maximize growth
opportunities may result in cash and cash equivalents being
insufficient to fund operations at current levels over the next 12
months and beyond.

This adverse impact on liquidity does not trigger a violation of
any covenants in the Company's material agreements, particularly as
the September 11, 2025 and September 29, 2025 Notes Purchase
Agreements do not contain any material financial covenants. The
availability of sufficient funds will depend to an extent on the
existence and timing of subscriber growth and the related cash
generation thereof, and/or the ability to obtain the necessary
capital to meet its obligations and fund the Company's working
capital requirements to maintain normal business operations.

While the accompanying financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern,
continued operations are dependent upon the Company's ability to
execute according to plans, which may include reducing
expenditures, obtaining further operational efficiencies,
completing equity or debt financings, or securing commercial lines
of credit, and ultimately generating profitable operational
results. Such financing or lines of credit may not be available on
reasonable terms or at all.

While the business plans that the Company have established may
enable it to meet its financial obligations as they become due over
the next 12 months and maintain its current level of operating
activities, its ability to continue as a going concern is
substantially dependent upon multiple factors, which primarily
include those factors set forth above. In order to preserve
liquidity, the Company may also take one or more of the following
additional actions:

     * Implement additional restructuring and cost reductions,

     * Secure a revolving line of credit,

     * Dispose of one or more product lines, and/or

     * Sell or license intellectual property.

There can be no assurance that any such potential actions will be
available or will be available on satisfactory terms.

The Company's ability to obtain additional financing in the debt
and equity capital markets is subject to several factors, including
market and economic conditions, the Company's performance and
investor sentiment with respect to it and its industry. As a result
of these uncertainties, and notwithstanding management's plans and
efforts to date, the Company have been unable to alleviate
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern
within 12 months from March 5, 2024, the date which the financial
statements are issued.

SORENTO ON YESLER: Disallowance of Oddie-Johnson's Claim Affirmed
-----------------------------------------------------------------
In the appeal styled YAMINAH ODDIE-JOHNSON, Appellant, v.SORENTO ON
YESLER OWNER, LLC, Appellees, ADV PROC. NO. 25-01081-CMA (W.D.
Wash.), Judge John C. Coughenour of the U.S. District Court for the
Western District of Washington affirmed the decision of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Washington granting
summary judgment to Sorrento on Yesler Owner, LLC on Yamina
Oddie-Johnson's claim in the  chapter 11 proceeding. This matter is
remanded to the Bankruptcy Court.

Ms. Oddie-Johnson, who lodged a proof of claim in Sorento's
bankruptcy proceeding, now appeals the Bankruptcy Court's summary
judgment ruling against her on a complaint Sorento filed with that
court seeking to disallow Ms. Oddie-Johnson's claim on invalidity
grounds. Ms. Oddie-Johnson solely contends that she was not
properly served with Sorento's underlying summary motion and/or
notice for the resulting hearing on that motion, which was set
before the Bankruptcy Court on October 23, 2025. This, says Ms.
Oddie-Johnson, violated her due process rights. According to the
District Court, the argument is meritless.

Sorento, in response to Ms. Oddie-Johnson's appeal, points to
record evidence that Ms. Oddie-Johnson received full and adequate
notice of its summary judgment motion to the Bankruptcy Court and
the resulting hearing, along with Ms. Oddie-Johnson opposition
papers to that motion, which included her own notice of that same
hearing. To satisfy due process, a debtor must provide notice that
is "reasonably calculated, under all the circumstances, to apprise
interested parties of the pendency of the action and afford them an
opportunity to present their objections." This evidence easily
meets this standard, along with that required under the bankruptcy
rules for notice.  On this basis, the Court must affirm the
Bankruptcy Court's ruling.

SPIRIT AVIATION: Court OKs Bid Rules for Aircraft Sale at Auction
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York has
approved Spirit Aviation Holdings Inc. and its affiliates to sell
aircraft at auction, free and clear of liens, claims, interests,
and encumbrances.

Spirit is a leading value airline committed to delivering value to
its guests by offering an enhanced travel experience with flexible,
affordable options. Spirit serves destinations throughout the
United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean with one of the
youngest and most fuel-efficient fleets in the United States.

The Debtors own 48 Airbus aircraft, only 36 of which are actively
being used for Spirit's operations, and 12 of which are in advanced
stages of refurbishment and reactivation.

As part of the Debtors' revised business plan, the Debtors have
been actively marketing 20 of these 48 aircraft as part of their
efforts to optimize their fleet and monetize certain assets to
improve the Debtors’ financial position for the benefit of the
Debtor' stakeholders.

Description of the aircraft that are up for sale can be found at
Exhibit A. https://urlcurt.com/u?l=kzM0qx

The Sale is an essential step in the implementation of the Debtors'
business plan, by efficiently reducing the Debtors' overall fleet
size through sales of aircraft that are no longer essential to the
Debtors' business to one buyer in a coordinated manner.

The Court has authorized the Debtor to conduct Bidding Procedures
and to take any and all actions necessary or appropriate to
implement the Bidding Procedures.

The dates and deadlines are approved, subject to the right of the
Debtors to modify the following dates so long as notice is given in
accordance with the terms of the Bidding Procedures.

Spirit shall publish the Publication Notice in the international
edition of the New York Times or equivalent international
publication, with any modifications necessary for ease of
publication.

Spirit shall conduct the Auction on April 20, 2026 at 10:00 a.m.
(prevailing Eastern Time) if at least one Qualifying Bid (as
defined in the Bidding Procedures) in addition to the Bid of the
Stalking Horse Buyer is timely received.

The Break-Up Fee, in an amount equal to 3% of the Purchase Price
(which amount equals $16,005,000), and the Expense Reimbursement,
up to a cap of $2,500,000, are hereby approved solely in accordance
with the terms and conditions set forth in the Aircraft Sale
Agreement. If the Stalking Horse Buyer Overbids at the Auction, a
“credit” for the amount of the Bid Protections will
automatically be added to such Overbid amount. For the avoidance of
doubt, the Stalking Horse Buyer is not deemed to waive the Bid
Protections by Overbidding (as defined in the Bidding Procedures)
at the Auction and the full amount of the $2,500,000 Expense
Reimbursement shall be utilized to calculate any Overbid amount.

The Sale Hearing will be conducted on April 23, 2026 at 11:00 a.m.
(prevailing Eastern Time) before the Honorable Sean H. Lane.

SPIRITRUST LUTHERAN: No Resident Complaints, 1st PCO Report Says
----------------------------------------------------------------
Margaret Barajas, the patient care ombudsman, filed with the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania her first
report regarding the quality of patient care provided by SpiriTrust
Lutheran.

The ombudsman observed that all SpiriTrust facilities and campuses
are well maintained, with open spaces, sidewalks, well-lit areas,

SPLASH BEVERAGE: Signs LOI to Merge With Medterra CBD
-----------------------------------------------------
Splash Beverage Group, Inc. has executed a non-binding Letter of
Intent for a proposed merger with Medterra CBD, LLC, a leading
manufacturer and multi-brand operator of federally compliant
cannabinoid wellness products sold to over 2 million customers
across the United States and Internationally.

The proposed transaction represents a transformative step in the
Company's evolution and the re-alignment and branding as a
growth-oriented platform focused on cannabinoid wellness, regulated
consumer health, and scalable brand development through the
curation of an established house of brands.

Through this proposed partnership, Splash and Medterra would be
positioned to drive category leadership in the emerging cannabinoid
wellness market by leveraging operational scale, access to public
markets, a seasoned executive team and a disciplined growth
strategy focused on the curation of a house of brands that have a
strong track record of delivering consistent, high-quality products
to consumers. The companies also plan to participate in a CBD pilot
initiative under evaluation by CMS, which could represent a
meaningful long-term growth opportunity, as discussed below.
Additional details regarding the Company's rebranding and strategic
evolution will be announced in due course.

Medterra brings an established operating infrastructure,
disciplined regulatory approach, strong brand portfolio with
millions of customers served, proven management team, and a
demonstrated record of profitable growth. During the fiscal year
2025, Medterra generated over $52 million in revenue and was
profitable, demonstrating its strong brand equity and established
operational capabilities. With this partnership, Splash and
Medterra intend to build a broader strategy centered on category
leadership in the budding cannabinoid wellness vertical,
operational scale, and strategic but responsible expansion.

Management Commentary

"This proposed combination represents more than a transaction -- it
marks the beginning of a new chapter for Splash as we evolve into a
platform company built for the future of cannabinoid wellness,"
said Brady Cobb, Board Member of Splash Beverage Group. "We believe
the industry is approaching a period of significant growth driven
by regulatory progress, increasing consumer adoption, and
institutional engagement. By partnering with a proven operator like
Medterra and leveraging our access to public markets, we intend to
build a scaled, disciplined organization positioned to lead through
the next phase of industry development. We look forward to sharing
further updates on leadership, rebranding, and the detailed path
forward in short order."

MedTerra's CEO JP Larsen stated, "This transaction represents a
pivotal moment for Medterra. Partnering with Splash provides the
resources and capital markets access to scale our platform at a
time when the cannabinoid industry is entering a new era of
legitimacy and growth driven by federal reform. Together, we intend
to build one of the leading compliant wellness platforms in the
sector, expanding our reach while maintaining the quality, science,
and trust that define our brands."

Positioned at a Regulatory and Market Inflection Point

Splash management believes the transaction aligns with increasing
regulatory clarity and growing institutional interest in federally
compliant cannabinoid products, including ongoing federal policy
developments related to hemp, CBD and cannabis rescheduling, as
directed by an executive order signed by President Trump on
December 16, 2025. This executive order also included a cannabinoid
pilot initiative for CBD that is being evaluated through the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. These initiatives are
designed to assess structured pathways for physician-recommended,
federally compliant hemp-derived CBD products within regulated
healthcare frameworks, including reimbursement models for
qualifying beneficiaries from the federal government.

While program parameters continue to evolve and no assurances can
be made regarding qualification or participation, management
believes that scaled, compliance-focused operators with documented
product quality standards and consumer usage data, could be well
positioned as regulatory frameworks mature.

Medterra has served millions of customers across the United States
and internationally and has developed a portfolio of science-driven
cannabinoid formulations, some of which are already registered with
the federal government and supported by consumer feedback and
quality assurance infrastructure.

Industry participants have suggested that structured reimbursement
pathways for cannabinoid wellness products could significantly
expand total addressable market opportunity, with some operators
referencing a potential U.S. market exceeding $30 billion should
federal reform and reimbursement frameworks advance. Management
believes that the proposed combination positions the Company to
evaluate participation in these emerging healthcare channels while
continuing to operate within existing federally compliant
guidelines for hemp and CBD.

Transaction Overview

Subject to completion of the transaction and required approvals,
J.P. Larsen from Medterra is expected to join the combined
company's Board of Directors and assume a senior operating
leadership role.

The Company intends to file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with
execution of the LOI, which will include additional details
regarding the proposed transaction. The proposed transaction is
subject to the execution of definitive agreements and shareholder
approvals as required by the NYSE American Exchange.

TEGNA INC: S&P Affirms 'BB+ Issuer Credit Rating, Outlook Negative
------------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed our 'BB+' issuer credit rating and
removed all its ratings on TEGNA from CreditWatch, where they were
placed with negative implications on Aug. 19, 2025.

The negative outlook reflects the risk that macroeconomic
instability could delay leverage reduction, leading to S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted net debt to EBITDA remaining above our 4.0x
downgrade threshold into 2028. The negative outlook also reflects
that if TEGNA's debt remains outstanding post-closing, S&P would
view the company as a core subsidiary of Nexstar.

Alternatively, if TEGNA's debt is repaid as part of the
transaction, the ratings would be withdrawn.

S&P said, "We expect Nexstar's acquisition of TEGNA will close
before the end of the second quarter. We believe regulatory
approval is likely given the public support expressed by FCC
Chairman Carr and President Trump. We recently removed our ratings
on Nexstar from CreditWatch, where we placed them placed back in
August on the announcement of the acquisition.

"We forecast about $300 million of synergies realized in the first
year post-transaction close. Given Nexstar's track record of
reducing leverage following acquisitions, we expect the combined
company will utilize excess free cash flow over the next few years
to repay debt. As such, we believe the company has a path to reduce
leverage to below our 4x downgrade threshold over the next two
years and we do not expect to lower the rating once the transaction
closes. If TEGNA's debt remains outstanding post-close, we would
view it as a core subsidiary of Nexstar. Alternatively, if the
company's debt is repaid as part of the transaction, we would
withdraw the ratings. As a result, we also removed the ratings on
TEGNA from CreditWatch, in line with the rating action on Nexstar.

"We expect the combined company to reduce leverage below our 4x
downside threshold by the end of 2027. We expect S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted leverage at the time of close to be about 4.6x on
a last-eight-quarter (L8Q) basis. Our calculation includes
adjustments for operating leases and includes operating losses at
the CW and is net of cash. Still, given acquirer Nexstar's history
of prioritizing debt paydown following a transaction, we expect
over the next few years, the company will allocate free cash flow
to paying down debt to getting leverage back below our 4.0x
target.

"Pro forma for the proposed acquisition, we estimate the company
will generate more than $7.5 billion in revenues, S&P
Global-adjusted EBITDA of over $2.5 billion, and $1.2 billion in
free cash flow in 2027, the first full year after the transaction
closes.

"The merger will position the combined company as a scaled national
media company. We believe the proposed merger of Nexstar and Tegna
would create a scaled national competitor, unique among its local
TV broadcaster peers. If approved by U.S. regulators, the combined
company would cover 80% of U.S. TV households (including its
partner stations and excluding the FCC UHF discount), giving it a
nearly national scale. This would afford the company a greater
ability to compete against national TV networks for national
advertising. This nearly national scale would also reduce its
exposure to any one region of the U.S. and smooth out increasingly
volatile political advertising spending. In addition, the company
would have a greater ability to negotiate both more favorable
retransmission agreements with pay-TV distributors and
reverse-retransmission agreements with broadcast networks.

"The negative outlook reflects the risk that macroeconomic
instability could delay leverage reduction, leading to S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted net debt to LQ8 EBITDA remaining above our 4.0x
downgrade threshold into 2028. The negative outlook also reflects
that if TEGNA's debt remains outstanding post-closing, we would
view the company as a core subsidiary of Nexstar."

Alternatively, if TEGNA's debt is repaid as part of the
transaction, the ratings would be withdrawn.

S&P could lower the rating if it believes that the combined
company's leverage will remain above 4x into 2028. This could occur
if:

-- It pursues additional debt-funded acquisitions or undertakes
aggressive shareholder returns that increase leverage or
dramatically slow the pace of deleveraging;

-- A severe or prolonged economic slowdown or secular pressures
causes its core advertising revenue to decline; or

-- Net retransmission revenue declines due to lower-than-expected
price increases with pay-TV distributors during upcoming contract
renewals, or growth in reverse retransmission fees don't moderate
as S&P currently expects.

S&P could revise its outlook to stable if:

-- It's clear that the company will return S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted net leverage to below 4x and S&P expects it to
remain there on a sustained basis; and

-- S&P believes its EBITDA and free operating cash flow will
remain stable despite ongoing pay-TV subscriber declines.



TEMPERATURE CONTROL: Gets Interim OK to Use Cash Collateral
-----------------------------------------------------------
The United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of
Illinois, Eastern Division, issued an interim order authorizing
Temperature Control & Maintenance Inc. to use cash collateral
belonging to the Small Business Administration (SBA) to continue
operating its business.

The court granted the motion and authorized the debtor to use the
SBA's cash collateral through April 15, 2026, according to a
court-approved operating budget covering February through April
2026. The debtor must strictly follow the line-item budget and
cannot make additional payments or distributions unless the secured
lender gives written consent or the court approves a modification.

The Debtor projects total operational expenses of $12,618 for March
and $13,123 for April.

To protect the lender's interests, the SBA was granted replacement
liens on the debtor's existing and newly acquired assets. These
liens maintain the same priority and validity as the SBA's
pre-petition security interests and ensure that the lender remains
protected if the value of its collateral decreases due to the
debtor's use of funds.

The order also requires the debtor to allow the lender to inspect
financial records and collateral, maintain insurance on the assets,
properly manage and maintain collateral, and include trustee fees
in its operating budget.

The interim order remains effective until April 15 when the court
will hold a status hearing and consider any objections filed by
interested parties regarding continued use of cash collateral.

Temperature Control Maintenance Inc is a heating and
air-conditioning repair and maintenance business serving Kane and

2026. In the petition signed by Anthony Mojarro, president, the

liabilities.

THASSOS INC: Gets OK to Use Cash Collateral Until April 2
---------------------------------------------------------
Thassos, Inc. received another extension from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division to
use cash collateral.

The court authorized the Debtor's interim use of cash collateral
through April 2 to pay the operating expenses set forth in its
budget. The budget projects total operational expenses of $124,175
for the period from Feb. 18 to April 2.

Use of funds for extraordinary expenses in excess of the budget
requires further court order or prior written approval of Newtek
Bank, N.A.

Newtek Bank, the Debtor's secured creditor, holds a first position
security interest in the cash collateral and is owed $390,661
pursuant to SBA loan.

As protection for any diminution in value of its cash collateral,
Newtek was granted valid, binding, enforceable, and perfected
replacement liens on and security interests in its collateral.
These replacement liens will have the same validity, priority and
extent as the secured creditor's pre-bankruptcy liens.

As further protection, Newtek will continue to receive payment of
$3,000. Failure to pay triggers a default and a late charge of 5%.
It also allows Newtek to accelerate the debt and seek enforcement.

The order requires the Debtor to maintain insurance on the
collateral and provides that authority to use cash collateral will
automatically expire on April 2, 2026, unless extended by further
court order.

The order is available at https://shorturl.at/6oeuR from
PacerMonitor.com.

The next hearing is scheduled for April 1.

TTM TECHNOLOGIES: Fitch Hikes LongTerm IDR to 'BB+', Outlook Stable
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has upgraded TTM Technologies, Inc.'s and subsidiary
TTM Technologies China Limited's (collectively TTM) Long-Term
Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) to 'BB+' from 'BB'. Fitch has also
upgraded the company's senior secured term loan rating to 'BBB-'
with a Recovery Rating of 'RR2' from 'BB+'/'RR2', its senior
unsecured ratings to 'BB+'/'RR4' from 'BB'/'RR4', and the rating on
TTM Technologies China Limited's ABL to 'BB+'/'RR4' from
'BB'/'RR4'. The U.S. ABL has been affirmed at 'BBB-'/'RR1'. The
Rating Outlook is Stable.

The upgrade reflects TTM's materially improved and more sustainable
financial profile, supported by durable demand from AI data centers
and defense. This positions TTM to sustain EBITDA leverage below
3.0x (2.1x at YE 2025) while investing in capacity and potentially
pursuing M&A.

The ratings and Stable Outlook reflect TTM's leading position in
printed circuit boards and complex radio frequency (RF)
components/microelectronic assemblies, and Fitch's expectation that
leverage will remain moderate.

Key Rating Drivers

Improved Financial Position: TTM benefits from strong demand in
data center and defense markets. Broad-based strength — including
healthcare and networking — drove solid 2025 results, with EBITDA
leverage improving to 2.1x from 2.8x in 2024. Management targets
15%-20% organic revenue growth annually over the next three years
and aims to double earnings from 2025 to 2027. Fitch-adjusted
EBITDA margin expanded to 15.4% in 2025 from 13.8% in 2024, driven
primarily by a shift toward higher-margin products. Continued
favorable mix and reduced drag from the Penang facility ramp-up
should support further margin improvement.

Moderate Financial Policy: TTM has generally adhered to its
long-term net leverage target of 1.5x-2.0x (0.9x at Dec. 31, 2025).
Fitch assumes acquisition activity keeps gross leverage in the
2x-3x range from 2026-2028. The company is also expanding
organically through new capacity additions, with capex elevated at
7%-8% of revenue (versus 4%-5% maintenance), which constrains FCF
growth. Fitch expects balance sheet cash and cash generation to
largely fund these investments, with potential for moderate
incremental debt. Key capacity projects include Penang, Malaysia
(ramping now), Syracuse, NY (ramping 2H 2026), China (under
construction), and a future site in Eau Claire, WI.

Secular Demand Growth: TTM has shifted toward end markets with
strong growth, long product lifecycles, and differentiation beyond
commodity printed circuit boards (PCBs). Aerospace and defense
accounts for 44% of 2025 revenue, supported by global defense
spending, inventory replenishment, and the shift to digitized
military systems. Meanwhile, data center demand is surging to
support AI infrastructure buildout. TTM is also moving up the value
chain, supplying more complex printed circuit boards, substrates,
and advanced packaging — many of which require stringent customer
qualifications. TTM's defense facilities also require security
clearances, which limit competition.

Customer Concentration: TTM's original equipment manufacturer
customers operate in concentrated markets, including A&D, data
center hyperscalers, wireless infrastructure, and autos. TTM's two
largest customers represented 23% of 2025 sales, and the five
largest customers collectively accounted for 44% of sales. Customer
concentration has increased in recent years. However, TTM has a
relatively broad program portfolio within its A&D business,
including more than 200 distinct programs, with no single program
contributing more than 6% of total revenue.

Geopolitical and Tariff Risk: TTM's significant manufacturing
presence in China creates exposure to U.S.-China geopolitical
tensions. Escalating conflict could disrupt supply chains or result
in regulatory restrictions that complicate operations at Chinese
facilities. The company has partially mitigated this risk by
expanding capacity in Malaysia and the U.S. TTM faces limited
direct tariff exposure, but a meaningful portion of revenue derives
from Chinese manufactured finished products that are exported
globally. Higher tariffs on finished products could reduce demand
for TTM's components, indirectly pressuring the company's sales,
though the near-term risk seems modest.

Parent-Subsidiary Relationship: TTM is the stronger parent of its
subsidiary, TTM Technologies China Limited (the weaker subsidiary).
Fitch views the strategic and operational incentives for TTM to
support the subsidiary as high, and the legal incentive as medium.
As a result, notching between the two entities is equalized. TTM
Technologies China Limited and co-borrower TTM Technologies Trading
(Asia) Company Limited are the borrowers under the Asia ABL.

Peer Analysis

TTM is well positioned at its 'BB+' rating, reflecting its solid
competitive position as a U.S.-domiciled manufacturer of
advanced-technology components and PCBs serving defense, aerospace
and high-end technology markets, combined with moderate leverage
that Fitch expects will be in the 2x-3x range.

Among similarly rated peers, Qnity Electronics, Inc. (BB+/Stable)
and Amkor Technology, Inc. (BB+/Positive) share TTM's rating level
but differ in profile. Qnity maintains comparable leverage with
significantly stronger profitability, while Amkor operates with
lower leverage and similar margins but faces higher customer
concentration.

Lower-rated peers Coherent Corp. (BB/Positive) and MKS Inc.
(BB/Stable) show varied credit characteristics — Coherent has
stronger profitability with improving leverage, while MKS carries
notably higher leverage despite robust margins. TTM's cash flow
generation relative to debt currently lags these peers due to
substantial facility buildouts, though Fitch expects meaningful
improvement as earnings grow over the next few years.

Flex Ltd. (BBB-/Positive) and Jabil Inc. (BBB-/Stable/F3) operate
at significantly greater scale — both exceeding $25 billion in
revenue — with comparable leverage but thinner EBITDA margins of
7%-8%. Their investment-grade ratings reflect broader
diversification across customers and end markets, supporting more
stable cash flows and stronger financial flexibility that offset
lower profitability.

Fitch’s Key Rating-Case Assumptions

- Revenue growth of 25% in 2026, 23% in 2027 and 5% in 2028, mainly
driven by the significant expansion in data center computing,
strength in A&D, and inclusion of revenues from a Fitch-assumed
acquisition in mid-2026;

- Fitch-adjusted EBITDA margin improves to 16.2% in 2026, up from
15.4% in 2025, due to a mix shift toward higher margin products and
reduced drag from the ramp-up of the Penang, Malaysia facility.
Fitch expects further EBITDA margin improvement to approximately
17.5% in 2027 and beyond, driven by continued favorable mix shift,
improved efficiencies at Penang, and modestly higher margin
associated with the assumed acquisition;

- Floating SOFR rates of 3.75% in 2026, 3.50% in 2027 and 3.75% in
2028;

- Cash tax rate of 22% as a percentage of pre-tax income;

- Capex assumed to be 7% of revenue in 2026-2028, reflecting
ongoing facility buildouts;

- M&A of $1 billion in the middle of 2026, with acquisitions 65%
debt funded.

Corporate Rating Tool Inputs and Scores

Fitch scored the issuer as follows, using its Corporate Rating Tool
(CRT) to produce the Standalone Credit Profile (SCP):

- Business and financial profile factors (assessment, relative
importance): Management (bbb, Lower), Sector Characteristics (bbb-,
Moderate), Market and Competitive Positioning (bb+, Higher),
Diversification and Asset Quality (bb, Moderate), Company
Operational Characteristics (bbb, Lower), Profitability (bb+,
Moderate), Financial Structure (bbb-, Higher), and Financial
Flexibility (bb+, Moderate).

- The quantitative financial subfactors are based on standard CRT
financial period parameters: 20% weight for the latest historical
year 2025, 40% for the forecast year 2026 and 40% for the forecast
year 2027.

- The Governance assessment of 'Good' results in no adjustment.

- The Operating Environment assessment of 'a' results in no
adjustment.

- The SCP is 'bb+'.

Recovery Analysis

TTM's Technologies Inc.'s ABL has a recovery rating of 'RR1', which
corresponds to a one-notch uplift from the company's IDR. TTM's
first lien term loan ranks junior to the ABL facilities; therefore,
its recovery rating is limited to RR2 (category 2 first lien),
corresponding with a one-notch uplift from the IDR. The unsecured
notes are rated 'RR4', corresponding to no uplift from the IDR.

TTM Technologies China Limited's ABL is subject to Fitch's
"Country-Specific Treatment of Recovery Ratings Criteria," which
caps the Recovery Rating for China at 'RR4'. Although the loan
parties are Hong-Kong-based entities, Fitch applies the China cap
because the assets securing the ABL and the business's economic
value are tied to the manufacturing plants located in China.
Accordingly, the 'RR4' assessment results in no uplift from the
IDR.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative
Rating Action/Downgrade

- Expectation for EBITDA leverage to be sustained above 3.0x;

- A structural deterioration in the company's market position,
potentially highlighted by the loss of major customers or pricing
power;

- Expectation for (CFO-capex)/debt to be sustained below 10% on a
normalized capital spending basis (i.e., capex approximately
4.5%-5.0% of revenue).

Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive
Rating Action/Upgrade

- Sustained scale expansion with improved business diversification,
including material growth in long-duration defense programs that
reduces cyclicality and enhances revenue visibility;

- Expectation for EBITDA leverage to be sustained below 2.5x;

- Expectation for (CFO-capex)/debt to be sustained above 20%.

Liquidity and Debt Structure

As of Dec. 31, 2025, TTM had $501 million in cash and cash
equivalents and $196 million of aggregate availability on its ABLs.
Fitch expects TTM will remain cash flow positive throughout its
forecast. The company has minimal scheduled principal amortization
and no debt maturities until its ABL facilities come due in 2028.
Its large cash balance, limited near-term debt maturities, and
expected FCF provide it with ample financial flexibility.

Issuer Profile

TTM Technologies, Inc. is a global manufacturer of PCBs, engineered
technology systems, RF components and RF microwave/microelectronic
assemblies.

MACROECONOMIC ASSUMPTIONS AND SECTOR FORECASTS

Fitch's latest quarterly Global Corporates Sector Forecasts Monitor
data file which aggregates key data points used in its credit
analysis. Fitch's macroeconomic forecasts, commodity price
assumptions, default rate forecasts, sector key performance
indicators and sector-level forecasts are among the data items
included.

Climate Vulnerability Signals

The results of its Climate.VS screener did not indicate an elevated
risk for TTM Technologies, Inc.

ESG Considerations

The highest level of ESG credit relevance is a score of '3', unless
otherwise disclosed in this section. A score of '3' means ESG
issues are credit-neutral or have only a minimal credit impact on
the entity, either due to their nature or the way in which they are
being managed by the entity. Fitch's ESG Relevance Scores are not
inputs in the rating process; they are an observation on the
relevance and materiality of ESG factors in the rating decision.

US STEEL: Moody's Upgrades CFR to Ba1 & Alters Outlook to Stable
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings assigned a Baa2 rating to United States Steel
Corporation's ("US Steel", "Company") new up to $752 million backed
tax-exempt environmental improvement senior unsecured revenue bonds
to be issued by the Arkansas Development Finance Authority ("ADFA")
and unconditionally guaranteed by NIPPON STEEL CORPORATION ("NSC",
"Parent", Baa2 stable). The proceeds of the bonds will be loaned by
ADFA to US Steel to refinance Big River Steel LLC's ("BRS")
existing ADFA tax-exempt revenue bonds maturing in 2049. The
existing rating of BRS's 2049 tax-exempt senior secured revenue
bonds will be withdrawn upon completion of the tender.

At the same time, Moody's upgraded US Steel's corporate family
rating ("CFR") to Ba1 from Ba2, its probability of default rating
("PDR") to Ba1-PD from Ba2-PD, the rating of its senior unsecured
notes and revenue bonds to Ba2 from Ba3 as well as the rating of
BRS's senior secured debt maturing in 2029 to Baa3 from Ba1. The
rating outlooks for US Steel and BRS have been changed to stable
from positive.

The assigned rating remains subject to Moody's reviews of the final
terms and conditions of the proposed financing.

RATINGS RATIONALE

Given the unconditional guarantee from NSC, the Baa2 rating on the
new environmental improvement revenue bonds reflects NSC's senior
unsecured credit quality. The upgrade of US Steel's CFR to Ba1
reflects Moody's expectations that an improvement in the company's
standalone operating and financial performance and continuous
support from NSC will lead to strong earnings growth and material
deleveraging in 2026-2027.

US Steel's Ba1 corporate family rating reflects the company's large
scale and strong market position as a leading US flat-rolled steel
producer whose footprint is enhanced by its diversification in
Central Europe. US Steel's asset base in the US complements NSC's
assets in the region and provides further geographic diversity from
its operation in Slovakia. The company's rating incorporates one
notch uplift relative to the company's standalone credit profile,
which reflects Moody's expectations that NSC is likely to provide
financial support to the company during periods of distress given
the strategic importance of US Steel to NSC. The rating is also
supported by the anticipated improvement in the company's credit
metrics following the repayment of $350 million in senior
convertible notes in 2025 and as it continues to benefit from the
recently completed significant capital investments in non-grain
oriented electrical steel capabilities, a new EAF mini mill and a
new dual Galvalume®/galvanized coating line. US Steel is expected
to maintain moderate leverage, ample interest coverage and good
liquidity.

The rating also considers the variability of the company's
operating performance due to its exposure to cyclical end markets
and volatile steel prices and the risks that the significant flat
rolled steel capacity additions and potentially weaker demand from
certain interest sensitive and industrial sectors will lead to
lower steel prices and earnings. The rating differential between
NSC and the company reflects the absence of explicit debt
guarantees from the parent on the existing debt, relatively short
operating track record under the new ownership and the terms of the
National Security Agreement ("NSA") and considers the Golden Share
issued by US Steel to the US government, which could reduce the
company's strategic flexibility.

In 2026, Moody's expects the EBITDA, as adjusted by Moody's, to
grow to about $1.5 billion as the company continues to benefit from
elevated steel prices and its recent capital investments in
expanded capacity and capabilities. These investments are expected
to enhance the company's product mix and earnings potential. US
Steel also benefits from the current import protections which could
result in stronger domestic demand, persistently elevated steel
prices and greater cash flow generation. However, the effects could
be tempered by the high level of US import protections already in
place, excess domestic steelmaking capacity and potential
retaliatory tariffs.

Pursuant to the terms of the NSA, NSC has pledged to make
approximately $11 billion in new investments during 2025-2028
period. The NSA also includes commitments related to governance,
domestic production and trade matters. Unless steel prices increase
materially from current levels, Moody's expects US Steel to be free
cash flow negative in 2026 driven by the planned 2.8 billion in
capex, requiring material cash infusion from NSC or an increase in
ABL borrowings. Alternatively, if 2026 capex remains at about $1
billion, Moody's would expect the company to generate positive free
cash flow. Assuming $900/ton HRC steel price and stable gross debt
levels, Moody's expects the company's credit metrics will
strengthen in 2026 with leverage (Debt/EBITDA) declining to
2.5-3x.

Moody's expects US Steel to maintain good liquidity. It had $517
million of unrestricted cash and about $1.57 billion under its
$1.75 billion asset based revolving credit facility. The ABL
facility requires the company to maintain a fixed charge coverage
ratio of 1.0x should availability be less than the greater of 10%
of the maximum facility availability and $140 million. Moody's do
not expect this covenant to be tested and anticipate the company
would be comfortably in compliance. The company's US Steel Košice,
s.r.o. (USSK) subsidiary in Europe had $202 million in borrowing
availability under its credit facilities as of December 31, 2025.
Its Big River Steel subsidiary had full availability on its $350
million senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility.

The Baa3 rating on Big River Steel's senior secured debt reflects
its priority position in the consolidated capital structure. The
Ba2 ratings on US Steel's senior unsecured notes and revenue bonds
reflect their effective subordination to the secured ABL as well as
priority payables. The Baa2 rating of the new tax-exempt bonds
guaranteed by NSC reflects NSC's senior unsecured credit quality
because the unconditional, continuing guarantee from NSC provides
comprehensive payment support and aligns the bonds' ultimate credit
risk with that of the guarantor (NSC).

The stable ratings outlook reflects Moody's expectations for an
improvement in the company's operating and financial performance
over the next 12-18 months driven by its enhanced capabilities,
higher shipments, elevated steel prices as well as operating and
administrative synergies and support resulting from the merger with
NSC. The stable outlook also incorporates Moody's expectations that
US Steel's gross debt levels and its credit metrics will remain
supportive of a Ba1 rating and that it will maintain its good
liquidity profile.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

US Steel's ratings could be considered for an upgrade if NSC and US
Steel build a solid track record of continuing to effectively
operate the business following recent capital investments, adhering
to conservative financial policy and disciplined business strategy
and if steel prices, metal spreads and profit margins are sustained
above historical averages. US Steel's ratings could also be
upgraded if NSC extends parent guarantees to US Steel's debt.
Quantitatively, if US Steel is able to sustain leverage of no more
than 3x through varying steel price points, its RCF/Net Debt is in
excess of 25%, then its ratings could be positively impacted. An
upgrade of NSC's rating could trigger an upgrade of the revenue
bonds guaranteed by NSC.

The company's ratings could be downgraded should steel sector
conditions materially deteriorate or if the company increases its
borrowings to fund new capex such that its leverage ratio is
sustained above 4x, its RCF/Net Debt falls below 15% or it fails to
maintain its good liquidity profile. A downgrade of NSC's rating
could trigger a downgrade of the revenue bonds guaranteed by NSC.

Headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States Steel
Corporation is the third largest flat-rolled steel producer in the
US in terms of production capacity. The company manufactures and
sells a wide variety of steel sheet, tubular and tin products
across a broad array of industries including service centers,
transportation, appliance, construction, containers, oil, gas and
petrochemicals. It also has an integrated steel plant and coke
production facilities in Slovakia (USSK). Revenues for the twelve
months ended 31 December 2025 were about $16.5 billion.

VANDERBILT MINERALS: Talc Creditors Wants Chapter 11 Dismissed
--------------------------------------------------------------
James Nani of Bloomberg Law reports that Vanderbilt Minerals LLC's
unsecured creditors have urged a bankruptcy judge to throw out the
company's Chapter 11 case, accusing the industrial minerals
producer of trying to evade the US Supreme Court's ruling that
curtailed broad litigation protections for third parties in
bankruptcy.

The creditors' committee said in a Tuesday, March 10, 2026, filing
in the Northern District of New York bankruptcy court that the
company is attempting to restructure talc-related injury claims in
a way that effectively sidesteps the high court's 2024 Purdue
Pharma decision. According to the committee, Vanderbilt Minerals is
attempting to recast claims against non-debtor affiliates so they
can be addressed within the bankruptcy.

The company entered Chapter 11 in February  2026as it faced
increasing litigation tied to talc products and their alleged
health risks. Vanderbilt Minerals has said the filing would allow
it to resolve liabilities while exploring a sale of its operations
and assets.

However, creditors argue that the strategy is designed to protect
affiliated entities that have not filed for bankruptcy. They said
the approach conflicts with the Supreme Court’s stance that
bankruptcy courts cannot grant sweeping liability releases to
non-debtors without proper legal authority.

VILLAGE HOMES: Scissor Trail Property Sale to Wendy Spalding OK'd
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort
Worth Division, has permitted Village Homes LP to sell Property,
free and clear of liens, claims, interests, and encumbrances.

The Debtor is a Texas limited partnership formed in 1996. The
Debtor's general partner is DH Management, Inc., a Texas
corporation, which holds a 1% general partner interest. The Debtor
has two limited partners: Michael Dike and James R. Harris.

The Debtor is engaged in the construction of single-family homes,
acquisition of single-family residential lots and options to
acquire lots, and in the marketing and sale of the completed homes.
The Debtor's real properties are located in various subdivisions in
Tarrant and Parker Counties, Texas.

The Debtor entered into a Village Homes Purchase Agreement with
Wendy Jo Spalding, for the sale of a
single-family home on a pre-construction basis identified with the
street address of 316 Scissor Trail Drive, Aledo, Texas 76008
(Scissor Trail Property). The purchase price is $617,148.

The Court has authorized the Debtor to consummate and close the
Scissor Tail Transaction pursuant to the terms of the Scissor Tail
Agreement.

The Scissor Tail Property shall be sold free and clear of the lien
covering the Scissor Tail Property pursuant to the Scissor Tail DOT
held by Texas Bank recorded under document number 202419807 in the
Official Public Records of Parker County, Texas, with such liens
under the Scissor Tail DOT to attach to the proceeds of sale of the
Scissor Tail Property.

The Scissor Tail Buyer as identified in the Scissor Tail Agreement
is not an "insider" of the Debtor.

The Scissor Tail Agreement was negotiated in good faith and at
arms-length between the Scissor Tail Buyer and the Debtor. The
Scissor Tail Buyer is paying value in the amount of the purchase
price for the Scissor Tail Property as set forth in the Scissor
Tail Agreement.

The Scissor Tail Buyer constitutes a good faith purchaser under
section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code and are therefore entitled to
the full protection of that provision.

VILLAGE HOMES: To Sell Karis Property to L. Menezes and A. Gupta
----------------------------------------------------------------
Village Homes, L.P., seeks approval from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division, to sell
Property, free and clear of liens, claims, interests, and
encumbrances.

The Debtor is a Texas limited partnership formed in 1996. The
Debtor's general partner is DH Management, Inc., a Texas
corporation, which holds a 1% general partner interest. The Debtor
has two limited partners: Michael Dike and James R. Harris.

The Debtor is engaged in the construction of single-family homes,
the acquisition and disposition of lots and options to acquire
lots, and in the marketing and sale of completed homes. The
Debtor's real properties are located in various subdivisions in
Tarrant and Parker Counties, Texas.

As of the Petition Date, the Debtor is the owner of the real
property and the completed single-family house constructed thereon
with an address of 1017 Karis Boulevard, Crowley, Texas 76036
(Karis Property). The Karis Property is not part of the Contract
Lots and is not included in the Lis Pendens, claimed by VilHom FW
Holdings LLC, f/k/a/ Olerio Development, LLC.

Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtor, as landlord, leased the
Karis Property to a third party pursuant to that certain Residence
Lease Agreement dated June 9, 2024. The Lease has a lease term of
July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2027, with an option to extend.

The Debtor entered into a One to Four Family Residential Contract
(Karis Sale Agreement) for the sale of the Karis Property with
Lorraine Menezes and Ashish Gupta in the purchase price of
$350,000.

Neither of the proposed buyers under the Karis Sale Agreement is an
insider of the Debtor.

The Karis Sale Agreement was negotiated between the Debtor and the
Buyers at arms-length and the Buyers are providing value to the
estate by paying the purchase price as set forth in the Karis
Agreement. Therefore, the Buyers are entitled to the protections
provided by section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code.

The Karis Property is not one of the Contract Lots and is not
subject to the Lis Pendens. Accordingly, the Lis Pendens has no
legal force or effect as to the Karis Property.

The Karis Sale Agreement provides for the Buyers to purchase the
Karis Property subject to the Lease and that the Lease would be
assigned to the Buyers.

he Karis Property is pledged to TexasBank as collateral and is
subject to a Deed of Trust dated February 9, 2023

The Deed of Trust is believed to constitute a first priority lien
against the Karis Property, subject only to the liens securing
property taxes.

The Debtor proposes to sell the Karis Property free and clear of
the lien asserted by TexasBank.

TexasBank holds a first priority lien on the Karis Property,
subject only to the liens securing property taxes.

The Debtor believes TexasBank consents to the distribution of the
net sale proceeds, after payment of the Release Price and closing
costs, to the Debtor to be used by the Debtor for its operations
and for the costs associated with the administration of this
Chapter 11 Case.

VSE CORP: S&P Assigns 'BB' Issuer Credit Rating, Outlook Stable
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB' issuer credit rating to VSE
Corp. At the same time, S&P assigned its 'BB' issue-level rating
and '3' recovery rating to the company's proposed $600 million term
loan B.

The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectation that S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted debt to EBITDA will remain below 3x starting by
year end 2026 while funds from operations (FFO) to debt remains
near or above 30%.

VSE is acquiring PAG with a combination of debt and equity. VSE is
an integrated aviation aftermarket solutions provider that repairs
and distributes engine components, wheel and brake parts, and other
new and used parts and materials. It's acquiring PAG, a provider of
aviation aftermarket MRO services, distribution, and supply-chain
solutions. VSE is funding the transaction with a $296 million term
loan A, a new $600 million term loan B, and $275 million of
rollover equity, as well as $863 million of new common equity
issuance and $460 million of tangible equity units which have
already completed financing. S&P said, "We view the use of equity
to fund a substantial portion of the purchase price as a key
element of our assessment of the company's financial policies and
commitment to moderate leverage. VSE will also have access to an
upsized $500 million revolving credit facility (undrawn at close),
which we expect it to use for future acquisitions and to bolster
liquidity. We expect pro forma debt to EBITDA to be at or above 3x
at transaction close but improve quickly in 2026 as the company
begins to realize cost synergies and integration costs gradually
decline. Absent sizeable debt-funded acquisitions, we expect
leverage to remain in the mid- to low-2x area throughout our
forecast, with free cash flows above $100 million beginning in
2026."

VSE is well positioned to capitalize on market conditions and
realize organic growth. Market growth and market-share gain as a
result of the PAG acquisition could accelerate organic revenue
growth. VSE believes the combination enables it to manage the
supply chain more efficiently than some of its competitors. Its
ability to deliver components and service quickly creates a
competitive advantage given the backlog in the industry. The
company aims to be a strategic partner for both original equipment
manufacturers (OEMs) and end-users simultaneously by finding the
best solution for each situation. The company's long-term
agreements with OEMs reflect investment by both parties in
training, planning, and customer service infrastructure, creating
relationship stickiness. The acquisition of PAG adds scale to VSE's
aftermarket business, potentially improving margins. The combined
company's business mix is approximately 62% MRO and 38%
distribution, serving business and general aviation (50%),
commercial (45%), and military (5%).

The rating reflects VSE's modest size and solid profitability. With
about $1.85 billion pro forma revenue, VSE is at the upper range of
S&P's smaller rated components manufacturers and distributors, such
as Goat Holdco LLC (Barnes Group), Ovation Parent Inc. (Arxis), and
Chromalloy Corp., all of which post $1.1 billion-$1.6 billion in
revenue. However, VSE is much smaller than competitors AAR Corp.,
which generates about $3 billion in annual revenue, and Dynasty
Acquisition Co. Inc. (StandardAero; over $5 billion).

Despite the modest size, S&P expects VSE to maintain solid EBITDA
margins relative to peers, 17%-18% at close and improving to 20% or
higher throughout our forecast. This compares favorably with that
of some of the larger players such as AAR and StandardAero, is in
line with Barnes, and is below smaller peers such as Signia
Aerospace LLC.

VSE's financial policy will help determine the rating trajectory.
Management seems focused on keeping leverage below 3x, which is a
key driver of the rating. How the company pursues future M&A
opportunities, and how it deploys excess cash, will be key to
credit metrics in the future. S&P said, "We believe the company
could decide to use excess cash and equity for further acquisitions
before issuing additional debt and increasing leverage. In the
absence of acquisition opportunities, it's also possible that it
could use excess cash to repay debt in addition to required
amortization. While we believe the company's financial policy will
likely remain supportive of the current rating, it's less likely
that management will pursue and maintain debt to EBITDA below 2x
for an extended period."

The stable outlook reflects VSE's market position and favorable
market dynamics as well as its expectation that its S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted debt to EBITDA will remain below 3x starting by
year end 2026, with FFO to debt near or above 30% throughout our
forecast.

S&P could lower its rating on VSE if it sustains debt to EBITDA
above 3x or FFO to debt well below 30%. This could occur if:

-- Integration challenges result in weaker-than-expected
profitability;

-- The aviation parts and MRO market weakens, resulting in little
to no organic growth; or

-- The company pursues growth through large debt-funded
acquisitions.

S&P could raise the rating on VSE if profitability improves such
that S&P Global Ratings-adjusted EBITDA margins are maintained well
above 20% while debt to EBITDA remains below 3x and FFO to debt
remains above 30%. This could occur if:

-- The company captures new business through organic growth;
EBITDA margins grow faster than expected because synergies are more
substantial than anticipated; and

-- Management commits to maintaining these credit ratios, even
with potential acquisitions and shareholder returns.



WEST RIDGE: Moody's Downgrades Rating on Revenue Debt to Ba3
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has downgraded to Ba3 from Ba2 the revenue rating
of West Ridge Academy, CO's. Concurrently, the outlook has been
revised to stable from negative. The charter school academy
currently has $9.6 million in outstanding revenue debt.

The downgrade is driven by the academy's unstable market position,
compounded by its limited operating scale, making it especially
susceptible to swift credit deterioration if enrollment declines
continue. The outlook revision to stable is due to the academy's
enhanced financial performance in fiscal 2025, which offers
short-term operational stability as management works to strengthen
the academy's competitive profile.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba3 rating for West Ridge Academy (WRA) reflects its limited
operating scale and relatively weak competitive position, which are
mitigated by the charter school's robust cash reserves. WRA's
enrollment may be stabilizing following years of student loss,
impacted by previous fluctuations to school leadership and stiff
area competition. The academy's academic performance is solid
compared to local competitors, including its authorizing home
school district. Despite uncertainties regarding achieving full
enrollment in the coming years, the current management has
effectively maintained solid financial metrics, aided by stable
state funding and a portion of local override millage. WRA
concluded fiscal 2025 with approximately 186 days of cash on hand
and a debt service coverage ratio of 1.3x. The rating also
considers the academy's moderately high leverage and the financial
strain from its outstanding debt and unfunded pension liabilities.
The risk associated with charter renewal is expected to remain low
as long as enrollment trends stabilize at present levels.

RATING OUTLOOK

The stable outlook reflects the likelihood of enrollment remaining
at current levels over the near term, along with management's
demonstrated ability to maintain healthy liquidity. However, a
return of enrollment decreases could bring downward credit
pressure.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATING

-- Improved competitive profile that results in enrollment gains
and increased student waitlist

-- Sustained revenue growth that reduces the charter school's
fixed cost burden and improves operational flexibility

-- Maintenance of healthy operating margins above 20% and debt
service coverage consistently above 1.5x

-- Material reduction in the charter school's leverage which
consists of debt and unfunded pension liabilities

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATING

-- Any further decreases to student enrollment

-- Narrowed operating margins resulting in annual debt service
coverage near or below 1.0x

-- Sustained reductions to days cash on hand

-- Material increases to the charter school's leverage

PROFILE

West Ridge Academy is a nonprofit charter school, located in the
City of Greeley (Aa2), about 45 miles east of Fort Collins (Aaa
stable). The school operates a single campus serving approximately
325 students in grades K-8. West Ridge Academy was created by Weld
County School District 6 (Greeley-Evans) (Aa3 stable), by a
resolution dated December 13, 2010, and has operated as a charter
school within the district since July 01, 2011. The school's
current five-year charter with its district authorizer is valid
through June 30, 2028.

METHODOLOGY

The principal methodology used in these ratings was US Charter
Schools published in April 2024.


WEST RIDGE: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to Aug. 3
------------------------------------------------------
West Ridge, Inc., and affiliates asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Northern District of West Virginia to extend their
exclusivity periods to file a plan of reorganization and obtain
acceptance thereof to Aug. 3 and Oct. 2, 2026, respectively.

The Debtors explain that the factors set out in the Express One
case weigh in favor of extending the Exclusive Periods:

     * Size and Complexity of the Bankruptcy Case. The Chapter 11
Case is complex, and the size of the case has grown from
encompassing the estates of three debtors to the estates of seven
debtors, three such debtors have been in bankruptcy for less than
two months. Because the Summit DIP Facility was originally
negotiated prior to current counsel's involvement and given the
expanded scope of the Chapter 11 Case after the filing of WRCPI,
WRCP3 and WRCD, Debtors and current counsel needed to spend the
last several weeks negotiating and seeking approval of the
Supplemental DIP Facility.

     * Sufficient Time to Negotiate a Plan of Reorganization.
Debtors require time to negotiate a plan of reorganization. The
Debtors obtained interim approval of the Supplemental DIP Facility
on Feb. 17, and will seek final approval at a hearing on March 5.
The funding made available by the Supplemental DIP Facility will
provide the Debtors with the cash needed to formulate, solicit and
seek approval of a plan of reorganization. The Debtors and their
professionals simply need additional time to compile and propose
that plan.

     * Good Faith Progress Towards Reorganization. As previously
stated, the Debtors' professionals have worked diligently since
their retention to move the Chapter 11 Case forward. They have
cured reporting and filing deficiencies in the cases of the Initial
Debtors and WR2E and commenced the cases of the Additional Debtors.
They have met ongoing obligations for the Debtors and negotiated a
second post-petition financing facility.

     * Reasonable Prospect of Filing a Viable Plan. Debtors are
still evaluating the property of the estates and claims against the
estates and confirming their financial information. However, with
interim authority to use the Supplemental DIP Facility, Debtors now
have sufficient resources to propose, solicit and confirm a chapter
11 plan, and are confident in their ability to do so. The Debtors
are collecting signed non-disclosure agreements from parties in
interest so they may begin diligence in contemplation of potential
exit financing.

     * Progress in Negotiations. Debtors anticipate filing a plan
of reorganization that involves all Debtors. Discussions have begun
and are ongoing with potential exit financing providers and Debtors
have begun providing diligence to those potential exit financing
providers.

     * No Pressure on Creditors. The Debtors are not seeking to
extend the Exclusive Periods to put pressure on creditors. Rather,
the Debtor seeks to extend the Exclusive Periods to enable all the
Debtors to negotiate and propose one joint chapter 11 plan that
increases efficiency and synergy for the benefit of their
creditors. While the Initial Debtors and WR2E have synchronized
their Exclusive Periods, the Additional Debtors' periods do not
expire until nearly two months after the deadlines for the Initial
Debtors and WR2E.

     * Unresolved Contingencies. Under Chapter 11 Case, the Debtors
will file one plan to include all Debtors. The Debtors cannot
formulate a consensual plan of reorganization until they determine
the extent of claims against all their estates. The Debtors'
professionals are currently working to analyze the unresolved
contingencies among all Debtors.

WHISPERING PINES 1: Moody's Downgrades GOLT Rating to Ba1
---------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has downgraded Whispering Pines Metropolitan
District NO. 1, CO's issuer rating to Baa3 from Baa1 and its
general obligation limited tax (GOLT) rating to Ba1 from Baa2. The
district has about $25 million in GOLT debt outstanding.

This action concludes a review for possible downgrade that was
initiated on Dec. 9, 2025 in conjunction with the release of the US
Special Purpose Districts methodology.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Baa3 issuer rating reflects the district's limited scale of
operations and the inherent weaker governance structure for all
metropolitan districts given limited managerial resources available
to react quickly to unexpected revenue declines or event risks.

The Baa3 also reflects an available fund balance to liabilities is
below peers at a very low 3.9%, though the fiscal 2026 budget
projects reserves to improve to approximately 6% of liabilities, a
level more in line with rated Baa peers.

The district's substantially built-out tax base in the Aurora area
continues to exhibit growth, key to property tax revenues, the
primary revenue source. Resident income levels are average at about
101.8% of the US median. Available fund balance and liquidity
ratios are solid at just above 40% of revenue, relative to its
limited operations. The fiscal 2026 budget was adopted with a
surplus that will further improve reserves to approximately 59% of
revenue. The district's 5.4% long-term liabilities to full value
ratio is elevated; however, should continue to improve with
continued tax base growth and lack of issuance plans.

The one notch distinction between the issuer rating and the Ba1
GOLT rating reflects the district's limited taxing headroom and
debt service coverage based on the maximum adjusted debt service
mill levy.

RATING OUTLOOK

Moody's do not assign outlooks to local government issuers with
this amount of debt outstanding.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Trend of surplus operations resulting in available fund balance
and/or liquidity ratios approaching 75% of revenue

-- Increase in available fund balance to liabilities that
approaches 10%, in line with higher rated peers

-- Moderation of long-term liabilities relative full value to
levels approaching higher rated peers

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Erosion of reserves with levels falling below 40% of revenue

-- Higher long-term liabilities relative to full value, and/or
available fund balance to long term liabilities falling below
current levels

PROFILE

Whispering Pines Metropolitan District No. 1 is located in
southeast Aurora, roughly 30 miles southeast of Denver. The
district owns and operates certain improvements related to
landscaping and detention areas. The estimated population is
1,463.

WYNDHAM HILL 2: Moody's Downgrades Issuer & GOLT Ratings to Ba2
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings has downgraded Wyndham Hill Metropolitan District
2, CO's issuer rating to Ba2 from Baa1 and general obligation
limited tax (GOLT) rating to Ba2 from Baa2. The district has about
$32 million in GOLT debt outstanding.

This action concludes a review for possible downgrade that was
initiated on Dec. 09, 2025 in conjunction with the release of the
US Special Purpose Districts methodology.

RATINGS RATIONALE

The Ba2 issuer rating reflects the district's below-median
available fund balance to liabilities ratio at a very low 0.9% and
very narrow reserves and liquidity at under 15% of revenue, both of
which will remain well below peers. In absolute dollar terms, the
district's reserves are extremely small, totaling just $300,000,
which leaves the district with narrow resources in the event of
unforeseen expenses. Furthermore, the district's outstanding
subordinate cash flow bonds will continue to absorb surplus
revenues, limiting future reserve accumulation. The rating further
incorporates the district's limited scale of operations and
weakness due to its governance structure given there are limited
managerial resources available to react quickly to unexpected
revenue declines or event risks.  

The Ba2 rating is supported by solid economic factors including a
strong resident income which equates 179.5% of the nation, and a
built-out tax base that exhibits strong growth, key to property tax
revenue, the main revenue source.

The proposed fiscal 2026 budget indicates a small deficit of around
$53,000 which will further weaken reserves to approximately 11.1%
of revenue. The district's 7.1% long-term liabilities to full value
ratio is elevated but drops to 6.4% of fiscal 2026 full value and
should continue to improve as the tax base grows and given a lack
of issuance plans.

The Ba2 rating on the district's GOLT debt is the same as the
issuer rating and reflects the sufficient headroom under the
maximum millage available to pay debt service.

RATING OUTLOOK

Moody's do not assign outlooks to local government issuers with
this amount of debt outstanding.

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Trend of surplus operations resulting in available fund balance
and/or liquidity ratios approaching 50% of revenue

-- Increase in available fund balance to liabilities that
approaches 20%, in line with higher rated peers

-- Moderation of long-term liabilities relative full value to
levels approaching higher rated peers

FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO A DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS

-- Erosion of reserves with levels falling well below the current
level of about 12% of revenue

-- Higher long-term liabilities relative to full value, and/or
available fund balance to long term liabilities falling below
current levels

PROFILE

The district is located in the Town of Frederick, Colorado and
within Weld County, approximately 30 miles north of metropolitan
Denver. Operational requirements are limited, with nearly all
infrastructure conveyed to the Town of Frederick and most
maintenance of district owned facilities funded by the community's
Homeowners Association.

METHODOLOGY

The principal methodology used in these ratings was US Special
Purpose Districts published in December 2025.


[] February 2026 Subchapter V Bankruptcy Filings Rose 91%
---------------------------------------------------------
American Bankruptcy Institute reports that Subchapter V elections
for small businesses jumped nearly 91% in February 2026, with 314
filings, compared with 164 a year earlier, according to Epiq AACER.
Commercial Chapter 11 filings rose 67% to 814, while total
commercial filings for February increased 21% to 2,666, partly
driven by related filings from a few large cases.

"Small businesses are facing higher borrowing costs, weaker demand,
and stricter lending standards," said Michael Hunter of Epiq AACER.
Rising consumer delinquencies, foreclosure starts, and mortgage
defaults have compounded pressures on both households and
businesses. Geopolitical uncertainty and the end of Covid-era
forbearance plans also contribute to the uptick in filings.

Overall, bankruptcy filings totaled 45,891 in February 2026, a 14%
year-over-year increase. Individual filings rose 13% to 43,225,
including 26,677 Chapter 7 cases and 16,437 Chapter 13 filings. ABI
Executive Director Amy Quackenboss said the growth in Subchapter V
filings reflects the program’s ability to help struggling small
businesses restructure efficiently and retain employees in a
difficult economy.

[] Minnesota Loses 1,300 Farms as Bankruptcies Rise
---------------------------------------------------
Caroline Weier of 5KSTP.COM reports that farm bankruptcies are
rising across the United States, contributing to a steady decline
in the number of active farms. Agricultural groups warn that
mounting financial pressures are forcing many producers out of the
industry.

Farmers in rural Minnesota say the situation has become
increasingly difficult, according to reporting from KAAL-TV. Rising
production costs and lower selling prices have left many operations
operating on razor-thin margins, the report states.

Data from the United States Department of Agriculture indicates
that Minnesota alone lost around 1,300 farms between 2024 and 2025.
Producers say the closures reflect years of economic stress rather
than a single bad growing season.

Nationwide, farm bankruptcy filings increased by 46% in 2025. Some
farmers say government assistance programs have helped stabilize
finances temporarily, but many believe stronger domestic demand and
more stable markets will be necessary to sustain farms in the long
run, according to report.


[] Scott Heard, Matt Murphy Join Skadden's Restructuring Group
--------------------------------------------------------------
Skadden announced that Scott Heard and Matthew Murphy have joined
its market-leading Finance and Corporate Restructuring Groups,
respectively, further strengthening the firm's private credit and
restructuring capabilities. Having worked together closely at
another prominent global law firm, Mr. Heard and Mr. Murphy provide
integrated service across complex debt financing transactions,
including acquisition financings, recapitalizations, restructurings
and liability management exercises.

Based in New York, Mr. Heard will lead Skadden's private credit
practice and has a wealth of private credit experience, advising
private credit lenders and other financial institutions on a broad
spectrum of sophisticated private credit transactions, including
acquisition financings, asset-backed and cash flow loans and
special situations financings.

Mr. Murphy rejoins Skadden in Chicago, where he will advise
distressed companies, creditors, lenders, hedge funds and asset
managers on insolvency-related transactions and liability
management exercises. He has extensive experience in all aspects of
capital structure management, including out-of-court and Chapter 11
restructurings, distressed asset acquisitions and investments and
post-petition financing.

"Scott's proven track record of advising lenders and alternative
capital sources combined with Matt's experience handling
high-profile restructurings will further enhance our ability to
deliver creative, effective full-scale solutions to clients
navigating complex financial challenges," said Jeremy London,
Skadden executive partner. "They join us at an exciting time of
strategic growth for the firm, and we are thrilled to welcome
them."

"Skadden's Finance Group is an industry leader in high-stakes deals
and offers an outstanding platform to expand my work in private
credit transactions," said Mr. Heard. "I am excited to join such a
talented team and look forward to collaborating with Matt and my
new colleagues to achieve exceptional results for our clients.
Together, we will continue to support their needs through every
stage of the financing process."

"I am honored to rejoin Skadden's renowned restructuring group,"
said Mr. Murphy. "The firm's commitment to excellence and its
collaborative culture are unmatched, and I am grateful for the
opportunity to work alongside such esteemed colleagues as we help
clients address their most difficult challenges."

Mr. Heard received his J.D. from the State University of New York
at Buffalo Law School and his B.S. from the State University of New
York at Buffalo. Mr. Murphy has been recognized by Chambers USA,
IFLR1000, Legal 500 and Best Lawyers as a leading restructuring
lawyer. He earned his J.D. from the University of Michigan Law
School and his B.A. from the University of Michigan.
