CHIQUITA BRANDS: CEO Answers DOJ's Memorandum on Colombia Unit
--------------------------------------------------------------
Fernando Aguirre, Chiquita Brands International Inc.'s chairman and chief
executive officer, responded to the sentencing memorandum filed by the
U.S. Department of Justice regarding the disclosed investigation of
protection payments made by the company's former banana-producing
subsidiary in Colombia, saying, "Chiquita is pleased that the DOJ has
formally recommended that the U.S. District Court for the District of
Columbia approve the plea agreement entered into between the company and
the Justice Department last March."

"Chiquita is also pleased that the government has decided not to prosecute
any current or former company executives in connection with its
investigation," Mr. Aguirre added.  "We believe this is the right decision
and one that reflects the good faith efforts of the company -- and its
officers, directors and employees -- to address a very difficult situation
involving the lives and safety of our employees."

"In recommending final approval of the plea agreement, the government
credited the company for both its voluntary disclosure and its
'significant' cooperation throughout the entire investigation."

"This agreement is in the best interests of the company and reflects a
responsible resolution to a difficult dilemma faced by the company several
years ago," he continued.

"Chiquita looks forward to putting this difficult chapter behind it, and
remains committed to the highest standards of corporate responsibility,
ethical conduct and legal compliance, in the United States and around the
world, Mr. Aguirre said."

Under the terms of the agreement, the company will pay a fine of US$25
million, payable in five annual installments.  The company recorded a
reserve in 2006 for the full amount of the fine in anticipation of
reaching an agreement.

The company does not anticipate that the fine will impact its ability to
operate its business.

BOSTON SCIENTIFIC: Says FDA Warning May Not Be Lifted This Year
---------------------------------------------------------------
Boston Scientific Corp. expects a warning letter from the Food
and Drug Administration to stay until next year despite its
advancing efforts to resolve the issues at hand, The Wall
Street Journal reports, citing a company official.

The FDA's warning letter, WSJ relates, stated that Boston
Scientific committed "serious violations" of federal regulations
by failing to report two deaths in a clinical trial.

The agency gave Boston Scientific three weeks to submit its
response, the report said.

Boston Scientific's chief operating officer, Paul LaViolette,
speaking during a Bear Stearns health-care conference, was cited
by WSJ as saying that the company expects to deliver results to
the FDA in the fourth quarter from a third-party audit of the
company's improved quality systems.

According to the source, the warning letter, sent Aug. 30, relates to a
small study of a stent to repair bulges in one of the body's large
arteries, the abdominal aorta.  Trivascular Inc., which Boston Scientific
bought in 2005 for about US$110 million, started the study in 2003 with 43
patients.

Headquartered in Natick, Massachusetts, Boston Scientific
Corporation (NYSE: BSX) -- http://www.bostonscientific.com/--
develops, manufactures and markets medical devices used in a
broad range of interventional medical specialties.  The company
has offices in Argentina, Chile, France, Germany, and Japan,
among others.

                            *   *   *

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 28, 2007,
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that its ratings on Boston
Scientific Corp., including the 'BB+' corporate credit rating, remain on
CreditWatch with negative implications, where they were placed Aug. 3,
2007.


EUTELSAT COMMS: Extends Distribution Agreement with Viasat
----------------------------------------------------------
Eutelsat Communications and ViaSat Inc. will expand the distribution
network for the Tooway(TM) satellite broadband service that was first
presented in Germany at the recent International Consumer Electronics show
in Berlin.

Distribution agreements have been signed which mark the extension of the
service beyond Germany into France, Spain and Bulgaria.

Tooway(TM) is a new-generation high-quality broadband service
designed for residential users, with equipment a fraction the
cost of existing enterprise-focused satellite services.  As a
new broadband alternative for homes with low-speed dial-up,
Tooway(TM) can at last change the price/performance paradigm for
consumer satellite Internet access in rural areas across Europe.

The three new distribution partners for Tooway(TM) all possess
solid knowledge of satellite technology and service delivery.  In France,
Sat2Way, which specializes in fully satellite-based
broadband products fo rprofessional markets, will market the
service to consumers in regions beyond range of high-speed
Internet via ADSL and cable networks.

In Spain, Overon, which is the market-leading company for satellite
transmission and contribution services, will host the Spanish Tooway(TM)
hub and distribute the service to ISPs in the region.  The new distributor
for Bulgaria is Bulsatcom, which already provides digital pay-TV services
in Bulgaria and has a strong market position in the region in
satellite-based video, and Internet services.  Tooway(TM) is expected to
be provided by each company by the end of 2007.

Sat2Way, Overon and Bulsatcom join Internetagentur Schott and
Teles who are the first distribution partners and service
providers in Germany, and who are preparing to launch Tooway(TM)
by the end of this month.

Commenting on the new distribution partners, Arduino Patacchini,
Multimedia Director at Eutelsat and Chairman of Skylogic said:
"Following on from our first announcement of service providers
for Germany, we are delighted that Tooway(TM) will also soon be
available in France, Spain and Bulgaria.  As a ground-breaking
and affordable solution for broadband access for the many homes
beyond range of terrestrial broadband networks, we believe
Tooway(TM) can make a powerful contribution to resolving
Europe's digital divide".

Tooway(TM) will be offered via Ka-band capacity on Eutelsat's
HOT BIRD(TM) 6 satellite at 13 degrees East and will also be
available via Ku-band capacity on the EUROBIRD(TM) 3 satellite.
Three different service grades will be provided in Ka-band and
Ku-band, with the initial offer delivering maximum downlink
speeds of up to 2048 kbps and maximum uplink speeds of up to 384
kbps.  Consumer tariffs and hardware prices will be defined by
each service provider partnering in the distribution of the
service.

Tooway(TM) will be initiated for Internet access, with broadcast
TV reception also possible from Eutelsat's HOT BIRD(TM)
neighbourhood with additional equipment.  An extension to a real
satellite triple play service with IPTV and VoIP will be able to
be proposed by distributors.  In 2010, Eutelsat expects to
extend its Tooway(TM) service offering in partnership with
ViaSat by deploying a new, high-capacity dedicated Ka-band
satellite to 13 degrees East with multiple spotbeams across
Europe.  It is anticipated that the new satellite will enable
much higher speed services.  Its location at Eutelsat's prime
video neighbourhood also means that consumers will be able to
receive triple play services and digital TV reception with a
single dish, consolidating the HOT BIRD(TM) position as one of
the most important and powerful neighbourhoods in the global
satellite sector.

Probability-of-Default and Loss-Given-Default rating methodology

production, refining and marketing assets.

The Company filed for Chapter 11 protection on Dec. 14, 2004
(Bankr. S.D. Tex. Case No. 04-47742), but the case was dismissed
on Feb. 24, 2005, by the Hon. Letitia Z. Clark.  A few days
later, the Russian Government sold its main production unit
Yugansk to a little-known firm Baikalfinansgroup for US$9.35
billion, as payment for US$27.5 billion in tax arrears for
2000- 2003.  Yugansk eventually was bought by state-owned
Rosneft, which is now claiming more than US$12 billion from
Yukos.

On March 10, 2006, a 14-bank consortium led by Societe Generale
filed a bankruptcy suit in the Moscow Arbitration Court in an
attempt to recover the remainder of a US$1 billion debt under
outstanding loan agreements.  The banks, however, sold the claim
to Rosneft, prompting the Court to replace them with the state-
owned oil company as plaintiff.

On April 13, 2006, court-appointed external manager Eduard
Rebgun filed a chapter 15 petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of New York (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No.
06-0775), in an attempt to halt the sale of Yukos' 53.7%
ownership interest in Lithuanian AB Mazeikiu Nafta.

On May 26, 2006, Yukos signed a US$1.49 billion Share Sale and
Purchase Agreement with PKN Orlen S.A., Poland's largest oil
refiner, for its Mazeikiu ownership stake.  The move was made a
day after the Manhattan Court lifted an order barring Yukos from
selling its controlling stake in the Lithuanian oil refinery.

On Aug. 1, 2006, the Hon. Pavel Markov of the Moscow Arbitration
Court upheld creditors' vote to liquidate OAO Yukos Oil Co. and
declared what was once Russia's biggest oil firm bankrupt.

SODBIZNESBANK: Police Seize Bank Documents Over Bankruptcy Probe
----------------------------------------------------------------
Russian Interior Ministry investigators seized documents at the
headquarters of Alfa Bank in Moscow as part of an ongoing probe into the
bankruptcy of Sodbiznesbank, The Moscow Times reports.

A spokesman for Alfa Bank confirmed that documents connected to the
account of a client were taken.  The bank, however, stressed it was fully
cooperating with the investigation.

Davydov with intentionally causing bankruptcy and abuse of power and
co-founder Alexei Frenkel with the murder of senior central banker Andrei
Kozlov, The Moscow Times relates.

In September 2006, Sodbiznesbank, a former client of Alfa Bank, was
formally declared bankrupt.

As previously reported in the TCR-Europe, an arbitration court in Moscow
ordered the liquidation of Sodbiznesbank as demanded by the Central Bank.

On May 13, 2004, the Central Bank revoked the general banking license of
Sodbiznesbank after a determination that the bank had failed to comply
with the federal banking law.  It alleged that Sodbiznesbank had committed

YUKOS OIL: Ex-CEO's Lawyers Gains Access to Chevron Data
--------------------------------------------------------
A U.S. district court judge in northern California has allowed the legal
defense team of jailed former OAO Yukos Oil Co. chief executive Mikhail
Khodorkovsky access to documents held by Chevron.

The judge ruled that Chevron may have "valuable evidence" that could help
Mr. Khodorkovsky refute charges of embezzlement and money laundering,
Bloomberg News reports citing lawyers for the former Yukos CEO.

"This is just the beginning of a global evidence-gathering process that is
necessary because the procuracy of the Russian Federation is not a
fact-gatherer but rather an enforcement arm of a Kremlin bent on
consolidating the state theft of Yukos," Robert Amsterdam, a lawyer for
Mr. Khodorkovsky said.

Mr. Amsterdam, however, did not reveal what kind of information Chevron
had that may be useful, Bloomberg News relates.

                         About Yukos Oil

Headquartered in Moscow, Yukos Oil -- http://yukos.com/-- is an
open joint stock company existing under the laws of the Russian
Federation.  Yukos is involved in energy industry substantially
through its ownership of its various subsidiaries, which own or
are otherwise entitled to enjoy certain rights to oil and gas
production, refining and marketing assets.

The Company filed for Chapter 11 protection on Dec. 14, 2004
(Bankr. S.D. Tex. Case No. 04-47742), but the case was dismissed
on Feb. 24, 2005, by the Hon. Letitia Z. Clark.  A few days
later, the Russian Government sold its main production unit
Yugansk to a little-known firm Baikalfinansgroup for US$9.35
billion, as payment for US$27.5 billion in tax arrears for
2000- 2003.  Yugansk eventually was bought by state-owned
Rosneft, which is now claiming more than US$12 billion from
Yukos.

On March 10, 2006, a 14-bank consortium led by Societe Generale
filed a bankruptcy suit in the Moscow Arbitration Court in an
attempt to recover the remainder of a US$1 billion debt under
outstanding loan agreements.  The banks, however, sold the claim
to Rosneft, prompting the Court to replace them with the state-
owned oil company as plaintiff.

On April 13, 2006, court-appointed external manager Eduard
Rebgun filed a chapter 15 petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of New York (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No.
06-0775), in an attempt to halt the sale of Yukos' 53.7%
ownership interest in Lithuanian AB Mazeikiu Nafta.

On May 26, 2006, Yukos signed a US$1.49 billion Share Sale and
Purchase Agreement with PKN Orlen S.A., Poland's largest oil
refiner, for its Mazeikiu ownership stake.  The move was made a
day after the Manhattan Court lifted an order barring Yukos from
selling its controlling stake in the Lithuanian oil refinery.

On Aug. 1, 2006, the Hon. Pavel Markov of the Moscow Arbitration
Court upheld creditors' vote to liquidate OAO Yukos Oil Co. and
declared what was once Russia's biggest oil firm bankrupt.


YUKOS OIL: Promneftstroy Completes Payment for Yukos Finance
------------------------------------------------------------
OOO Promneftstroy has fully paid for Yukos Finance B.V., the Dutch unit of
bankrupt oil company OAO Yukos Oil Co., Interfax News reports citing
Nikolay Lashkevich, spokesman for Yukos bankruptcy receiver Eduard Rebgun.

As reported in the TCR-Europe on Aug. 15, 2007, Promneftstroy won the
auction to acquire 242,399 shares of Yukos Finance for RUR7.838 billion.

Yukos Finance carried a RUR7,598,361,000 starting price and a RUR40
million bid increment.  The winning bidder must deposit RUR1,519,672,200
as initial payment.

Yukos Finance's main assets include:

  -- a 49% stake in Transpetrol, worth between US$100 million
     and US$200 million; and

  -- proceeds from a 54% stake in Lithuanian refinery Mazeikiu
     Nafta AB, worth almost US$1.5 billion.

YUKOS OIL: Rosneft Oil Fully Pays for Receivables
-------------------------------------------------
OAO Rosneft Oil Co. has completely paid for OAO Yukos Oil Co. receivables
it acquired during an auction Aug. 15, 2007, RIA Novosti reports.

with its RUR11.5 billion bid.

During the auction, Rosneft acquired various receivables owned by Yukos
amounting to a total of RUR13.7 billion.  The major part of the
receivables in the lot comprised receivables of Rosneft itself (RUR1.667
billion), Tomskneft (RUR1.602 billion), Samaraneftegaz (RUR160 million)
and other Rosneft subsidiaries.

FTA SANTANDER: Moodys Junks EUR20 Million Series E Notes
--------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned these provisional ratings to the debt
to be issued by FTA Santander Consumer Spain 07-2:

   -- (P)Aaa to the EUR929 million Series A notes;
   -- (P)Aa3 to the EUR27 million Series B notes;
   -- (P)A1 to the EUR17.5 million Series C notes;
   -- (P)Baa3 to the EUR26.5 million Series D notes; and
   -- (P)Caa2 to the EUR20 million Series E notes.

FTA Santander Consumer Spain 07-2 is the fourth consumer loan-backed
securitisation transaction carried out by Santander Consumer EFC, S.A
(Santander Consumer) to date, and the first such deal including consumer
loans different from auto loans.

In Moody's view, the strengths of this deal include, among others:

   (1) a swap agreement guaranteeing an excess spread of 275
       bppa and covering the servicing fee should Santander
       Consumer be substituted as servicer of the pool;

   (2) a 12-month artificial write-off mechanism;

   (3) a granular securitized pool; and

   (4) sequential amortization of the notes.

The weaknesses of the deal include:

   (1) a revolving period of up to two years;

   (2) the relatively low seasoning;

   (3) the negative impact of the interest deferral trigger on
       the subordinated series;

   (4) the non-standard cash reserve amortisation pattern; and

   (5) the sensitivity of junior series (Series C and D) to back
       loaded timing of default scenarios.  These increased
       risks were reflected in the credit enhancement
       calculation.

The provisional pool of underlying assets comprised, as of August 2007, a
portfolio of 120,096 loans granted to 117,858 borrowers resident in Spain.
The pool is composed of a mixture of auto loans (71%) and other type of
consumer loans (29%).  Most of the debtors (96%) are individuals, out of
which 13% are self-employed.  The loans have been originated between 2001
and 2007, with a weighted average seasoning of 9.4 months and a weighted
average remaining life of 5.3 years.  The weighted average interest rate
is 7.98%, with all the loans having a fixed interest rate.  All of the
loans hold a personal guarantee. Geographically, the pool is concentrated
in Andalusia (24%), Canary Islands (18%) and Catalonia (12%).  At closing,
there will be no loans that are more than 30 days in arrears.

Moody's bases the provisional ratings primarily on these factors:

   (i) an evaluation of the underlying portfolio of loans;

  (ii) the strict eligibility criteria with which any receivable
       must comply in order to be included in the securitized
       pool;

(iii) the early amortization triggers put in place to stop the
       purchase of additional loans;

  (iv) historical performance information;

   (v) the swap agreement;

  (vi) the credit enhancement provided through the GIC accounts,
       the excess spread, the reserve fund and the subordination
       of the notes; and

(vii) the legal and structural integrity of the transaction.

Moody's issues provisional ratings in advance of the final sale of
securities, and these ratings only reflect Moody's preliminary credit
opinions regarding the transaction.  Upon a conclusive review of the final
pool of assets and the final documentation, Moody's will endeavor to
assign a definitive rating to the notes.  A definitive rating, if any, may
differ from a provisional rating.

The provisional ratings address the expected loss posed to investors by
the legal final maturity (Aug. 20, 2022).  In Moody's opinion, the
structure allows for timely payment of interest and ultimate payment of
principal at par with respect to the Series A, B, C and D notes, and for
ultimate payment of interest and principal at par with respect to the
Series E notes, on or before the final legal maturity date.  Moody's
ratings address only the credit risks associated with the transaction.
Other non-credit risks have not been addressed, but may have a significant
effect on yield to investors.

AXA INSURANCE: New York Court Recognizes Chapter 15 Petition
------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York entered an
order recognizing the U,K, scheme proceedings of AXA Insurance U.K. PLC,
Ecclesiastical Insurance Office Plc, GLOBAL General and Reinsurance
Company Limited, and MMA IARD Assurances Mutuelles as the foreign main
proceedings pursuant to Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

The Debtors are subject to a scheme of arrangement proceeding in the High
Court of Justice of England and Wales.

Chapter 15, which became effective Oct. 17, 2005, broadens the mechanism
through which representatives of non-US proceedings might obtain relief,
including injunctive relief, in the United
States; expands the powers of U.S. Bankruptcy Courts; and enhances the
rights of both U.S. and non-U.S. creditors.

The U.S. Court's decision has effectively stayed all other legal
proceedings that may be ongoing or commenced against the Debtors.  It also
protects the Debtors' assets within the United States from any execution,
transfer, encumbrance, and disposal.

                       Scheme of Arrangement

a reinsurance pool that went into a run-off on Nov. 1, 2002.

Reinsurance pools that enter into a run-off, typically completes in 20 or
more years, cease underwriting new business and seek to determine, settle
and pay all liquidated claims of their insureds as they rise.  To shorten
the run-off and reduce administrative cost, the Debtors have each entered
into a scheme of arrangement under English Law.  The Schemes apply to all
business written by the companies within the pool.

On Feb. 28, 2007, the companies met with Scheme Creditors, after being
allowed by the U.K. High Court on Dec. 12, 2006.  The High Court also
confirmed that Philip Heitlinger has authority to request recognition and
a permanent injunction order under Chapter 15 of the Bankruptcy Code on
the December 12 order.

in favor of by the requisite majorities of Scheme Creditors.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 8, 2007,
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services revised its loan and recovery ratings
on Chrysler LLC's (B/Negative/--) US$10 billion senior secured first-lien
term loan facility due 2013, following various changes to terms and
conditions prior to closing.  The US$10 billion first-lien term loan now
consists of a US$5 billion "first-out" tranche and a US$5 billion
"second-out" tranche, so the aggregate amount of first-lien debt remains
unchanged.

Accordingly, S&P assigned a 'BB-' rating to the US$5 billion "first-out"
first-lien term loan tranche.  This rating, two notches above the
corporate credit rating of 'B' on Chrysler LLC, and the '1' recovery
rating indicate S&P's expectation for very high recovery in the event of
payment default.  S&P also assigned a 'B' rating to the US$5 billion
"second-out" first-lien term loan tranche.  This rating, the same as the
corporate credit rating, and the '3' recovery rating indicate S&P's
expectation for a meaningful recovery in the event of payment default.

Moody's Investors Service has affirmed Chrysler Automotive LLC's B3
Corporate Family Rating, and the Caa1 rating of the company's US$2 billion
senior secured, second lien term loan in connection with Monday's closing
of DaimlerChrysler AG's sale of a majority interest of Chrysler Group to
Cerberus Capital Management LLC.

FORD MOTOR: Inks Pact with Romania to Acquire Craiova Site
----------------------------------------------------------
Ford Motor Co. reached an agreement with the Romanian government for the
EUR57-million purchase of the Craiova vehicle manufacturing plant in the
south-west of the country.

Ford of Europe President and CEO John Fleming and Calin Popescu-Tariceanu,
Prime Minister of Romania, witnessed the signing of the documents which
begin the process of transferring ownership of the facility to Ford.

The documents were signed by the chief negotiators for each side –- Mr.
Lyle Watters, director of Business Strategy, Ford of Europe, and Mr.
Sebastian Vladescu, president of the Privatization Committee for
Automotive Craiova and Secretary of State for Economy and Finance.

Speaking at the signing ceremony at the Frankfurt Motor Show in Germany,
John Fleming said: "This is great news for Ford, for Romania and for
Craiova.  We are acquiring a plant with a skilled and enthusiastic
workforce and together we will work to transform the plant into an
industry benchmark for vehicle manufacturing in Central Europe."

Prime Minister Tariceanu commented: "Ford has shared with us their
exciting vision for the future of Craiova.  In time the plant will be
producing over 300,000 Ford vehicles and engines a year, all proudly made
in Romania."

In addition to the EUR57 million to be paid to the government for their
72.4 per cent stake in Automotive Craiova, Ford will transfer to a new
company significant land parcels not required for production plans.  The
same offer will be made to all the minority shareholders.

Ford has also committed to spending another EUR675 million to upgrade and
modernize the plant.  And, by 2012, the company expects to be spending
around EUR1 billion a year in Romania to support the Craiova operations.

Employment levels at the plant will almost double, from the existing 3,900
to 7,000.

Ford's purchase of the Craiova facility will be ratified by the Romanian
government via a special law which will make its way through parliament in
the not-too-distant future.  When all the formalities are completed, Ford
will become the new owner towards the end of the year.

"I wish to place on record Ford Motor Company's gratitude to the
government of Romania and its agencies involved in the negotiation
process," said Mr. Fleming.  "Given the intense nature of the discussions
we have had over many weeks, it would have been understandable had the
relationship become strained.  Despite the complex negotiations, the
atmosphere was always cordial and very positive.  We appreciated that very
much.

"Although we have reached this landmark stage, there is still much
planning work for us to do before we assume full responsibility for the
plant.  While I do not want to be too specific at this stage about the
vehicle we shall be building in Craiova, I can confirm that we will start
with a small car built solely in Craiova and we expect up to 90 per cent
of vehicle production to be exported.

"For the foreseeable future, it is business as usual at Craiova. During
this transition period there will be much to discuss with the employees at
the plant.  I hope today's news pleases them as much as it does me and my
management team," he added.

The Ford of Europe president and CEO also confirmed that he would be
travelling to Romania with other members of the Ford of Europe senior
management group on Sept. 14, 2007.  While there he will join Prime
Minister Tariceanu at the plant, meet employees and view some of the
facilities.

In its Technical Offer document, presented to the Romanian Authority for
State Assets Recovery at the beginning of the negotiations in July, the
company made the following statements:

    -- Craiova will be a cornerstone of Ford of Europe's
       manufacturing base and a key element of its plan to
       increase sales in Europe to over two million units
       per year.

    -- Craiova will be incorporated into the global Ford
       organization, building strong and sustainable
       relationships with local, regional and global economies.

    -- the application of the Ford Production system, a
       renowned lean-manufacturing principle, ensures leading-
       edge manufacturing standards.

    -- investments made to upgrade and modernize the plant will
       include a new, automated 1,000 tonne press line and
       automate some of the existing production lines in the
       Craiova press shop; the installation of a new body
       construction shop; modernize and expand the capacity and
       flexibility of the paint shop operations and new
       equipment and tooling in the trim and final areas of
       assembly.  Where possible, Ford aims to use local
       suppliers and labor to support these efforts.

    -- protecting the health of Ford employees and ensuring
       their safety are of paramount importance.  Ford works to
       continuously reduce the risk of accidents and injures and
       to increase the employees' awareness of health and safety
       issues.

    -- Ford's product plans for Craiova will require a
       substantial increase in employment.

    -- the company plans to collaborate with other local
       companies to build a sustainable base of technical
       expertise through apprenticeship and work experience
       programs.

    -- providing equal opportunity and fostering diversity
       (valuing and respecting every individual) will be key
       principles in the company's recruitment approach.

    -- Ford will work in partnership with those local unions
       officially representing its employees to establish
       competitive and sustainable practices.  These will
       distinguish Craiova as a flexible, world-class
       manufacturing operation capable of dealing with the many
       changes that occur in a fast-moving global industry.

The Meetings, Conferences and Seminars column appears in the Troubled
Company Reporter each Wednesday. Submissions via e-mail to
conferences@bankrupt.com are encouraged.


                            *********

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

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

A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Thursday's edition of the TCR. Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged.  Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com

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