BPS-BANK: Fitch Affirms Individual Rating at 'D'
------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has upgraded Belarus-based BPS-Bank's Long-term
foreign currency Issuer Default Rating to 'B' from 'B-' and
Support Rating to '4' from '5', thereby resolving the Rating Watch
Positive on the ratings. A Negative Outlook has been assigned.
The rating action follows the completion of the acquisition of a
93.3% stake in BPS by Sberbank - Savings Bank of the Russian
Federation ('BBB'/Negative) from the Belarusian authorities. A
full list of rating actions is provided at the end of this
comment.
The upgrades reflect the greater potential for the new
shareholder, relative to the Belarusian authorities, to provide
support to BPS in case of need. At the same time, the ratings are
constrained by Belarusian transfer and convertibility risks, which
may limit the extent to which Belarusian banks can receive and
utilize external support in order to meet obligations to
creditors. The Negative Outlook on BPS's IDR reflects the risk
that Belarus's economic environment and external finances could
deteriorate further, leading to a weakening in the sovereign's
credit profile and an increase in transfer and convertibility
risks.
BPS is the fourth-largest bank in Belarus with a market share of
7.1% in corporate lending and assets of US$1.7 billion at end-
Q309. Sberbank plans to grow BPS's market share in corporate
lending to 12% by 2014 from 7.1% currently. To that end it
intends to increase BPS's equity by US$300 million-350 million
(currently US$226 million) and provide BPS with additional non-
equity financing of up to US$2 billion by 2014.
Sberbank is the largest bank in central and eastern Europe, and
accounts for about 30% of the assets of Russia's banking system.
The main shareholder of Sberbank is the Central Bank of Russia
(60.25% of the voting shares). Sberbank has the most extensive
branch network in Russia, including 18 territorial banks and more
than 20,000 outlets, and also operates subsidiaries in Kazakhstan
and Ukraine.
The full list of rating actions:
* Long-term foreign currency IDR: upgraded to 'B' from 'B-', off
RWP, Negative Outlook assigned
* Short-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'B'
* Support rating: upgraded to '4' from '5'; off RWP
* Individual rating: affirmed at 'D/E'
* Support Rating Floor: affirmed at 'B-' and withdrawn

E-CLEAR PLC: Administrators to Probe Link with Other Elia Firms
---------------------------------------------------------------
Dominic O'Connell at The Times reports that accountancy firm BDO,
which acts as administrators for E-Clear, will investigate whether
money from the company was diverted to the other business
interests of Elias Elia, the chief executive.
Creditors estimate E-Clear owed clients about GBP100 million when
it went under but told a court it had only GBP100,000 to hand, the
report relates.
The report says BDO wants to check whether E-Clear helped fund Mr.
Elia's other activities, including a network of Cypriot property
companies.
According to the report, Mr. Elias set up property and
construction groups under the "Elian" umbrella, several of which
had the same office address in London's Mayfair as E-Clear.
BDO is also expected to study Nord-finanz Bank, a small bank in
Germany owned by E-Clear, the report notes.
The BDO team will need to unravel E-Clear's connection with
Nordfinanz, the report states.
The BDO team expects to meet creditors this week to discuss the
next steps, including how any investigative work will be funded,
the report discloses.
Peter Jones at The Times reports creditors will be asked, in the
absence of any money in E-Clear's bank accounts, to fund further
investigations to try to recover their money.
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Jan. 21,
2010, Mr. Justice Vos at the High Court on Jan. 19 approved the
order for the administration of E-Clear plc, following the failure
of the company to submit evidence of funds on Friday, Jan. 15.
BDO has been appointed administrator. According to the Times,
papers shown to the High Court in London on Jan. 19 said that
E-Clear had less than GBP10 million in two bank accounts, while
the personal account of Mr. Elia was empty. The Times disclosed
investigators for BDO, the accountancy firm appointed by the court
to administer E-Clear, are now looking for GBP90 million and
trying to establish whether Globespan was the victim of fraud or
incompetence. Simon Mortimer, QC, for PwC, said that E-Clear had
not complied with an order made by the court last week to prove
that it had the GBP35 million owed to Scottish airline Globespan,
the Times said. E-Clear's role was to process credit card
payments made mainly by holidaymakers and eventually to pass the
money collected to travel companies such as Globespan, according
to the Times. However, at some point last year the payments to
travel firms dried up, causing many to collapse, the Times noted.

ZLIN MORAVAN: Declared Bankrupt; Owes CZK41 Mln to Creditors
------------------------------------------------------------
CTK, citing Aktualne.cz, reports that the Regional Court in Brno
declared the aircraft manufacturer Zlin Moravan Aviation bankrupt
on Friday, Jan. 22.
According to the report, the firm's fate is now in the hands of
its creditors.
The report recalls the company, bought by QucomHaps of Ireland for
CZK50 million three years ago, has been in insolvency proceeding
since July last year. It owes over CZK41 million to 40 creditors,
the report discloses.

ENTRY FUNDING: Fitch Downgrades Ratings on Class A Notes to 'B'
---------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded Entry Funding No. 1 PLC's
EUR204,802,647 class A notes (ISIN: XS0277614532) due 2013, to 'B'
from 'BBB' and removed them from Rating Watch Negative. A
Negative Outlook and a Loss Severity Rating of 'LS-2' have been
assigned. The transaction is a cash securitization of
certificates of indebtedness (Schuldscheindarlehen) of German SMEs
originated and serviced by Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg (rated
'A+'/'F1+', the arranger). The Schuldschein programme was
conducted by LBBW in cooperation with Baden-Wuerttembergische
Bank, Landesbank Rheinland-Pfalz, and several German savings
banks.
The rating actions are primarily the result of the negative
performance of the underlying assets, but also of the high obligor
concentration in the pool and revision of Fitch's Rating Criteria
for European Granular Corporate Balance Sheet Securitizations.
Although the notes were placed on RWN pending full analysis after
the revised criteria were launched, Fitch did not resolve the
Watch immediately upon the criteria application. This was because
Fitch had been informed that a restructuring of the transaction
would occur in the first months of 2010 with the aim of the
arranger to maintain an investment-grade rating for the class A
notes. However, the arranger recently informed Fitch that no
restructuring would take place.
The credit enhancement of class A notes derived from both
subordination and excess spread is not sufficient to justify the
previous rating of the notes.
HORNBACH-BAUMARKT-AG: S&P Retains 'BB' Rating on EUR250 Mil. Notes
------------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it has revised its
recovery rating on the EUR250 million senior unsecured notes of
Hornbach-Baumarkt-AG (BB/Stable/--), Germany's fourth-largest do-
it-yourself retailer, to '3' from '4'. The issue-level rating on
the bonds remains unchanged at 'BB', in line with S&P's corporate
credit rating on the company.
The revision of the recovery rating reflects S&P's improved
expectations of "meaningful" (50%-70%) recovery for noteholders in
the event of a payment default, following a change in S&P's
assumptions.
"Despite the weaker guarantee package for Baumarkt's unsecured
revolving credit facility (not rated) relative to that of the
unsecured notes, S&P had previously assumed that the RCF would, by
the time of default, rank ahead of the notes," said Standard &
Poor's recovery analyst Florence Devevey. "S&P now assume as
S&P's central scenario that both instruments would most likely
rank pari passu in a postdefault waterfall."
S&P continues to assume that RCF lenders will have enhanced their
waterfall ranking by the time of default, but to a lesser extent
than before. That said, S&P notes that the risk remains that
Baumarkt might have to grant security or priority ranking to the
RCF lenders on the path to S&P's simulated default (in exchange,
for example, for a maturity extension or covenant waivers).
S&P has based its assumption revision on these factors:
* S&P's view of the weak RCF documentation, including a weakly
structured maintenance covenant;
* S&P's understanding of the documentation that, if the RCF
proceeds were to be on-lent to subsidiaries, such intercompany
loans would be subordinated to claims under the notes; and
* S&P's view of the weaker guarantee package for the RCF compared
with that of the notes.
"S&P now believe that these factors could make it more difficult
for RCF lenders to enhance their ranking above that of noteholders
prior to default, and have therefore revised S&P's assumptions
accordingly," said Ms. Devevey.
Recovery Analysis
For the purposes of S&P's recovery analysis, S&P has valued
Baumarkt as a going concern, based on what S&P sees as its
"satisfactory" business risk profile and favorable market position
in the German DIY retail market. Recovery is also supported by
the notes' comprehensive guarantee package, which broadly covers
most of the operating subsidiaries.
S&P has simulated a default in the first half of 2013, at which
point S&P estimates a stressed enterprise value of about
EUR480 million. S&P's assessment of recovery prospects in a
discrete asset valuation further supports its recovery
expectations.
S&P deducts from its stressed enterprise value estimate priority
liabilities of about EUR160 million, comprising principally
enforcement costs and priority debt liabilities (in particular
mortgages and overdrafts). Assuming pari passu ranking of the RCF
and notes, the residual value of EUR320 million is sufficient for
50%-70% recovery for both instruments combined, including
prepetition interest; hence S&P's recovery rating of '3' on the
notes. However, if Baumarkt were to grant priority ranking to the
RCF lenders on the path to S&P's simulated default, S&P believes
that recovery prospects for the noteholders would be lower
(estimated in the 30%-50% range).

HSH NORDBANK: Bankruptcy of Nine Flower Funds Won't Hit Business
----------------------------------------------------------------
William Launder at Dow Jones Newswires reports that HSH Nordbank
on Friday said the bankruptcy of nine trusts governing around 25%
of the bank and advised by private investor J.C. Flowers wouldn't
directly impact HSH Nordbank's business.
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Monday, HSH
Delaware GP LLC and five affiliated partnerships filed for
bankruptcy protection on January 21 before the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Delaware (Case No. 10-10187). According
to various reports, citing court papers, another three trusts
invested in the funds and advised by JC Flowers have requested
that the Delaware court convert their status from Chapter 7 to
Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
Michael Bathon at Bloomberg News says HSH, based in Wilmington,
Delaware, listed as much as US$500 million in both assets and debt
in Chapter 11 documents filed in Bankruptcy Court. According to
Reuters, people familiar with the bankruptcy said the partnerships
had total assets of US$680 million.
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on September 9, 2009,
creditors with claims aggregating US$27.8 million filed a petition
to send affiliate HSH Delaware LP to Chapter 7 liquidation (Bankr.
D. Del. Case No. 09-13145). Commerzbank AG, Lloyds TSB Bank Plc,
ABN Amro Bank NV, Calyon, Royal Bank of Scotland Plc and
Landsbanki Islands HF filed the involuntary Chapter 7 petition.
According to Reuters, nine partnerships were created in 2006 to
buy a 26% stake in HSH Nordbank, the world's largest shipping
financier, from WestLB AG for about EUR1.25 billion (US$1.76
billion). Reuters says the partnerships received unsecured term
and revolving loans of EUR375 million from ABN AMRO bank to fund
the purchase of HSH Nordbank shares.
JC Flowers advised HSH and its affiliates on the purchase. HSH
and its affiliates' beneficiaries are primarily investors in J.C.
Flowers Fund II, Bloomberg says, citing court documents.
"An application for Chapter 11 protection, as in this case, is
based on the restructuring of the company. We assume that a
sustainable solution will be arrived at quickly," The Wall Street
Journal quoted HSH Nordbank as saying in a statement.
According to the WSJ, the funds have come under pressure after
renegotiating loan terms because of the financial crisis and
following a recapitalization of HSH Nordbank by the German
government, which diluted the trusts' stakes in the bank.
Citing a court filing, the WSJ discloses as of December 2009, the
trusts had around EUR383 million in outstanding debts.
HSH Nordbank -- http://www.hsh-nordbank.com/-- is a commercial
bank in northern Europe with headquarters in Hamburg as well as
Kiel, Germany. It is active in corporate and private banking.
HSH's main focus is on shipping, transportation, real estate and
renewable energy.
* * *
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Dec. 23,
2009, Moody's Investors Service affirmed HSH's E+ bank financial
strength rating, which carries a developing outlook and currently
maps directly to a B1 stand-alone baseline credit assessment. In
addition, the rating agency affirmed the bank's Caa1/negative
rating for hybrid securities.
At this stage, several factors are still constraining any
upward rating pressure on Moody's stand-alone assessment:
1.) Ongoing pressurized macroeconomic conditions in all of HSH's
main operating markets. This adverse situation may continue
to seriously hurt the bank's shipping and commercial real
estate portfolios.
2.) Continued earnings volatility, given the bank's high reliance
on cyclical, less profitable business segments as well as the
considerable cost associated with the recent capitalization
measures and the establishment of the risk shield.
3.) Some concerns over the bank's capability to rebuild an
adequate funding franchise following the phase-out of the
government's Financial Market Stabilization Funds liquidity
support measures.
4.) Swiftly restoring high-quality corporate governance standards
as well as leadership stability after the notable management
upheaval over recent months.
Given these constraints, however, there is still a likelihood that
Moody's could over time reposition the B1 stand-alone BCA within
the E+ BFSR category, which ranges from a B1 to B3 stand-alone
assessment.
The uncertainties about the direction of HSH's BFSR are reflected
in the developing outlook. If the BFSR were to move upwards, this
shift would likely be limited to only a few notches (D level).
Moreover, the positive rating migration of the BFSR may not fully
offset the expected gradual decline in external support. The
rating action reflects this view.
UNITYMEDIA GMBH: EU Commission Clears Proposed Acquisition by LGE
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The European Commission has cleared under the EU Merger Regulation
the proposed acquisition of the German cable network operator
Unitymedia GmbH by Liberty Global Europe Holding B.V. of The
Netherlands. The Commission concluded that the concentration
would not significantly impede effective competition in the
European Economic Area or any substantial part of it.
LGE is a cable network operator currently active in nine member
states including Austria, but not in Germany. Its division,
Chellomedia is active in the production of three pay-TV channels
broadcast in Germany: Extreme Sports Channel, Zone Reality and
Zone Club. Unitymedia is a German cable network operator active
only in the German Federal States of North Rhine-Westphalia and
Hesse.
The Commission examined the effects of the proposed transaction on
the markets for licensing of broadcasting rights and pay-TV
channels in German-speaking countries, on the markets for
wholesale and retail signal transmission in the German Federal
States of North Rhine-Westphalia and Hesse, as well as the markets
for pay-TV, voice telephony, broadband Internet access and triple-
play (TV, internet, phone) services in Germany.
Both LGE and Unitymedia license TV content for their TV platforms
in Austria and Germany. The Commission found that the horizontal
overlap in the market for licensing of TV content in German-
speaking countries is unlikely to lead to competition problems due
to the parties' limited market share and the presence of strong
competitors such as Sky, Canal+ and RTL-Group.
LGE provides pay-TV channels produced by its division,
Chellomedia. Unitymedia is active on the downstream market as a
licensee of pay-TV channels. The Commission therefore also
investigated the effects of the proposed concentration on access
to LGE's pay-TV programs by competitors of Unitymedia. The
Commission found no competition concerns because the merged
company would not be able to negatively impact other TV-platform
operators by refusing access to its pay-TV channels because of the
availability of competing channels. The merged company would also
lack the ability to deny operators of TV-channels access to
customers, because of the merged company's limited share of demand
for TV-content and the presence of strong competitors operating
other TV-platforms.
The Commission did not find any competition concerns related to
the vertical relationship between the merging companies of the
markets for wholesale termination of calls on their fixed networks
due to lack of incentives of the merged company to restrict access
to its networks and the high level of state regulation.
* * *
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Nov. 17,
2009, Moody's put the Ba3 Corporate Family Rating of Unitymedia
GmbH under review for possible downgrade following the
announcement that an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of LGl and
LGI entered into a share purchase agreement with Unity Media
S.C.A. to acquire all the issued and outstanding capital stock of
Unitymedia GmbH for EUR2 billion. The total acquisition cost
including net financial debt amounts to ~EUR3.5 billion (before
transaction fees). Completion of the transaction, which is
subject to regulatory review, is expected to occur in the first
half of 2010. Following completion of the acquisition,
consolidated group debt is expected to increase from EUR1.7
billion to ~EUR2.5 billion.
The existing instrument ratings within the Unitymedia group
(senior secured at Ba3, senior at B2) remain unaffected by the
transaction, reflecting Moody's expectation that all the existing
debt facilities will be fully repaid upon completion in line with
the acquirer's stated intention. The acquiring entity, UPC
Deutschland is in the process of raising new debt, which will be
pushed down into Unitymedia following completion to effect the
repayment of Unitymedia GmbH's existing debt.
The rating action reflects Moody's expectation that the company's
post-transaction credit profile will be measurably weaker than the
current one that supports a Ba3 CFR for the company. The
increased indebtedness would reduce the company's financial
flexibility and free cash flow generation ability. In particular,
the Debt/EBITDA ratio would remain above 5x for a significant
amount of time whereas Moody's current Ba3 rating on Unitymedia
had expected the company to remain on a de-leveraging trajectory
and in an any case very comfortably below 5x on a Debt/EBITDA
basis with progressive free cash flow generation. Following
completion and assuming repayment of the existing debt and its
replacement with the debt to be raised at UPC Deutschland, Moody's
expects the CFR to be downgraded by one notch to B1. Should the
transaction not complete, Moody's currently expects that the CFR
would be confirmed at Ba3.

VIDAM PARK: Could Face Bankruptcy; Has HUF70 Mln Operating Deficit
------------------------------------------------------------------
MTI, citing Blikk tabloid, reports that Vidam Park, Budapest's
60-year-old amusement park, could face bankruptcy.
According to the report, the tabloid said the council-owned fun
park near Heroes' Square has amassed an operating deficit of HUF70
million and may not be able to pay employees their wages next
month.
The report relates Vidam Chief executive Tamas Kofalvi told the
paper that the company was suffering from liquidity problems, but
insisted that it was "far from bankrupt". Mr. Kofalvi said the
company's revenues had been reduced by people spending less on
entertainment as a consequence of the economic crisis, the report

KAUPTHING BANK: Receives Claims Worth US$56 Bln From Creditors
--------------------------------------------------------------
Omar R. Valdimarsson and Tasneem Brogger at Bloomberg News report
that Kaupthing Bank hf has received claims worth US$56 billion
from creditors spread across 119 countries.
Citing a Jan. 22 e-mailed statement from Kaupthing, which is being
wound down and whose domestic business was renamed Arion Bank hf,
Bloomberg says the bank received 28,167 claims by the Dec. 30
deadline. According to Bloomberg, the bank said the claims were
worth ISK7.316 trillion, with the dollar equivalent calculated
according to the central bank's April 22 fixed exchange rate of
130.4.
Bloomberg notes the statement said the claims, equivalent to about
five times Iceland's gross domestic product, stem mostly from
Germany.
Bloomberg relates Visir.is, citing the unpublished claims
registry, said the largest single claimant against Kaupthing is
Deutsche Bank AG, which claims "almost 900 billion kronur" in
"close to 50 different claims".
Kaupthing will hold a creditors' meeting on Jan. 29 to discuss the
claims registry, Bloomberg discloses.
"There are claims that have been filed that Kaupthing has already
paid," Bloomberg quoted Kaupthing spokeswoman Helga Bjork
Eiriksdottir as saying, adding that a "substantial amount" of the
claims have already been settled.
Bloomberg recalls the bank's winding-up committee had earlier
estimated claims at ISK3.68 trillion in senior liabilities and
ISK450 billion in other liabilities.
About Kaupthing Bank

AULDCARN LTD: Goes Into Liquidation; Owes EUR2.3 Mln to Creditors
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Suzanne Lynch at The Irish Times reports that Auldcarn Ltd., a
company owned by restaurateurs Christian and Simon Stokes, has
gone into liquidation.
The report relates that Jim Luby of McStay Luby Chartered
Accountants was appointed as liquidator to Auldcarn on Thursday by
the Revenue Commissioners at a meeting of creditors.
Citing Auldcarn's statement of affairs, the report says the
company, whose sole business was the Clarendon Inn pub, which
ceased trading under the management of the Stokes brothers in
early 2008, has debts of EUR2.337 million. The Clarendon Inn is
now managed by Niall Lawless, who has no connection to the Stokes
brothers, the report notes.

CAULFIELD MCCARTHY: Faces Uncertainty After HCJV Covenant Breach
----------------------------------------------------------------
Una Mccaffrey at The Irish Times, citing accounts filed to the
Companies Office, reports that KPMG, auditors to Caulfield
McCarthy Group (Holdings) Limited, said the property company was
subject to "material uncertainties" at the end of March last year.
According to the report, the auditors highlighted guarantees that
the firm had given in respect of the EUR84 million borrowings of
its parent, HCJV, a holding company, and said certain bank
covenants had been breached.
The report relates the auditors said "The group is currently
dependent on continuing support from its bankers," and recommended
the calling of an extraordinary general meeting of the company.
Caulfield McCarthy Group (Holdings) had a loss of EUR2.7 million
in the year to the end of March last, the report discloses. At
that stage, its liabilities exceeded its assets by almost EUR2
million, the report notes.
HCJV meanwhile had a net deficit on shareholders' funds of EUR62.3
million and bank borrowings at EUR84.2 million at the same point,
the report states. The breach of covenants on these borrowings
meant that they were "now technically due on demand", the report
says, citing a note to the Caulfield McCarthy Group (Holdings)
accounts.
The accounts also state that the loan repayment date for the HCJV
loans has been renegotiated to the end of 2010, the report notes.
According to the report, the accounts note "The ability of the
company to continue operating as a going concern is dependent on
the continued availability of bank financing to HCJV."
Caulfield McCarthy Group (Holdings) is controlled by HCJV, which
is in turn owned by two companies: Caulfield Group Property
Limited and Castleshine.

LINEN SUPPLY: Landlord Balks at Rescue Plan; 290 Jobs at Risk
-------------------------------------------------------------
Ian Kehoe at The Sunday Business Post Online reports that that the
company will go into liquidation with the loss of 290 jobs if the
High Court's Mr. Justice Brian McGovern rules in favor of one of
the company's landlords.
The report relates during a two-day court hearing last week, one
of the company's landlords argued against the company's
EUR18 million rescue plan, claiming that outstanding rents should
be paid in full.
According to the report under the scheme, the landlord had been
asked to write off 70% of what it was owed. If the judge rules in
favor of the landlord, the rescue scheme will collapse, the report
says.
The report recalls the company has already repudiated a number of
its leases following a Supreme Court hearing in December.
However, the landlord at the company's Galway operation argued
last week that it was still entitled to be paid in full even if
the lease has been repudiated, the report notes.
Under the rescue scheme prepared by the firm's examiner, KPMG
accountant Kieran Wallace, all of the firm's preferential
creditors would be paid in full, while unsecured creditors would
receive 30% of their debts, the report discloses.
The company, which supplies linen to hotels and restaurants,
continues to trade, despite its liabilities of EUR61 million, the
report states.

ZOE DEVELOPMENTS: AIB Secures Court Order to Appoint Receiver
-------------------------------------------------------------
Mary Carolan at The Irish Times reports that Allied Irish Bank has
secured orders from the Commercial Court appointing a receiver
over a large number of properties owned by companies in the
insolvent Zoe Developments group as part of its effort to recover
loans of more than EUR550 million made to the companies.
According to the report, Mr. Justice Peter Kelly directed receiver
William G. O'Riordan will have the power effectively to act as a
landlord of the properties, manage the companies' interest in
them, receive rents and enter leases. The report notes the judge
said the receiver was not entitled, at this stage, to enter into
possession of or to sell the properties.
The report relates the judge appointed the receiver after making
orders the EUR550 million loans are "well-charged" (well-secured)
over the various properties via equitable mortgages created on the
basis of undertakings by solicitors for the Zoe companies to hold
the title deeds of the properties in trust for AIB. All title
deeds have been lodged with the bank, the report says.
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Jan. 20,
2010, The Irish Times said the bank's action is against Danninger,
Eppo Developments, Fabrizia Developments, Oze Construction and
North Quay Investments Ltd.

FIAT SPA: Appoints Harald Wester to Revive Alfa Romeo Brand
-----------------------------------------------------------
Sara Gay Forden at Bloomberg News reports that Fiat SpA appointed
Harald Wester, the carmaker's head of technology, to revive the
money-losing Alfa Romeo brand.
According to Bloomberg, Fiat said Friday Mr. Wester, who replaces
Sergio Cravero as Alfa Romeo's chief executive officer, will
remain CEO of the Maserati and Abarth car divisions and retain his
technology position.
Bloomberg relates Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne is reviewing strategy
for Alfa and said Jan. 11 at the Detroit auto show that he has no
plans to sell the 100-year-old brand despite difficulties
competing with German carmakers such as Daimler AG's Mercedes-Benz
and Volkswagen AG's Audi.
Mr. Marchionne, as cited by Bloomberg, said although Alfa is
positioned to compete with high-end cars, quality and performance
have fallen short.
"This may be Fiat's last attempt to revive Alfa Romeo," Bloomberg
quoted Philippe Houchois, a London-based analyst at UBS AG, as
saying in a telephone interview. "If it works, great. If not,
Marchionne is known to be very careful about consuming capital and
he may have to make other decisions."
Bloomberg notes Fiat has said Alfa Romeo needs to sell about
300,000 cars to break even and is about 180,000 short. The unit's
losses may be EUR300 million (US$425 million) to EUR400 million a
year, Bloomberg says, citing Max Warburton, an analyst at
Bernstein Research in London.

PARMALAT SPA: Deloitte & Thornton Settle Lawsuit
------------------------------------------------
Lead Plaintiffs Hermes Focus Asset Management Europe Limited;
Cattolica Partecipazioni, S.p.A.; Capital & Finance Asset
Management; Societe Moderne des Terrassements Parisiens and
Solotrat ask the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of New York, pursuant to Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure, to:
(a) approve of the form and manner of notice to Class members
of:
* a proposed settlement resolving all claims against
Defendants Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, Deloitte & Touche
LLP, Dianthus S.p.A., formerly known as Deloitte &
Touche S.p.A., and James Copeland; and
* a proposed settlement resolving all claims against
Defendants Grant Thornton International, Grant Thornton
International Limited, Grant Thornton LLP and Grant
Thornton S.p.A.; and
(b) establish a date and time for a fairness hearing to
consider:
* final approval of the Settlements as well as the Plan of
Allocation of the settlement proceeds; and
* Lead Counsel's application for an award of attorneys'
fees and reimbursement of expenses.
In support of their request, the Lead Plaintiffs filed an
accompanying memorandum of law, and separate declarations by James
J. Sabella, Esq., at Grant & Eisenhofer P.A., in New York, and
Scott D. Hakala and accompanying exhibits. Mr. Sabella, Esq., is
the Lead Plaintiffs' counsel, while Mr. Hakala is their expert
economist.
The Settlements provide for payment to the Plaintiffs of a total
of US$15 million, Mr. Sabella relates. Specifically, the Deloitte
Settlement provides for a settlement amount of US$8.5 million, and
the Grant Thornton Settlement provides for a settlement amount of
US$6.5 million. The Settlements provide for the release of claims
against, inter alia, the Deloitte and Grant Thornton Defendants
and their member firms.
The issue before the Court is whether the Settlements are within
the range of what might be approved as fair, reasonable and
adequate, sufficient to justify transmitting to the Class notice
concerning the Settlements and scheduling the Final Approval
Hearing, Mr. Sabella tells Judge Kaplan. Mr. Sabella asserts that
the Court is not required at this point to make a final
determination regarding the reasonableness of the Settlements, and
no Class member's substantive rights will be prejudiced by
issuance of a preliminary order.
The Court knows the history of this litigation and that the
Settling Parties to both Settlements are fully conversant with the
strengths and weaknesses of this case against the persons and
entities being released under the Settlements, Mr. Sabella
contends. He notes that the Settling Parties are aware of the
rulings already entered and the facts developed. They, thus, can
readily evaluate the risks associated with proceeding to trial --
indeed, trial was scheduled -- as well as the fairness of the
Settlements, he continues.
"In light of these strengths, weaknesses, and risks, the proposed
Settlements are a good result for the Class and, Lead Plaintiffs
submit, plainly fall within the 'range of possible approval,'" Mr.
Sabella asserts. Accordingly, he says, the Court should direct
that notice be disseminated to the Class. The Class period is set
between January 5, 1999, and December 18, 2003.
* * *
The Court approved the form of the Notice and the Publication
Notice of the Settlements. Co-Lead Counsel Cohen, Milstein,
Hausfeld & Toll, P.L.L.C., is authorized to retain, and the Court
appoints, Epiq Class Action and Claims Solutions Inc. as the
Notice and Claims Administrator, to supervise and administer the
notice procedure as well as the processing of claims.
Judge Kaplan also sets these schedules:
March 8, 2010 Settlement Hearing
February 1, 2010 Deadline for filing Class exclusion request
February 1, 2010 Deadline for filing notice of appearance
February 16, 2010 Deadline for filing Settlement objections
All reasonable costs incurred in identifying and notifying Class
members, as well as in administering the Settlements, will be paid
as set forth in the stipulations.
At or after the Settlement Hearing, the Court will determine
whether any application for reimbursement of Co-Lead Counsel's and
other plaintiffs' counsel's fees and expenses will be approved.
Neither the Deloitte Parties nor the Grant Thornton Settling
Defendants nor their Counsel will have any responsibility for any
application for attorneys' fees or expenses submitted by any
plaintiffs' counsel. Those matters will be considered separately
from the fairness, reasonableness and adequacy of the Settlements,
Judge Kaplan maintained.

PARMALAT SPA: Dr. Bondi to Appeal Grant Thornton Dismissal
----------------------------------------------------------
To recall, Judge Lewis A. Kaplan of the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New York granted defendants Grant
Thornton International, Grant Thornton LLP, and Bank of America
Corporation, et al.'s request for summary judgment and for
dismissal, with prejudice, pursuant to the in pari delicto
defense, of all claims asserted against Grant Thornton and BofA by
Plaintiffs Dr. Enrico Bondi and Parmalat Capital Finance Ltd.
Judge Kaplan related in his 45-page opinion dated September 18,
2009, that there is no dispute that Parmalat Finanziaria, S.p.A.,
Parmalat S.p.A., their affiliates and PCFL officers engaged in a
massive fraud that ended in the collapse of Parmalat. The
allegedly dishonest Parmalat and PCFL officers were doing
corporate business in obtaining financing from BofA and in
providing fraudulent financial statements to auditors and others,
Judge Kaplan noted. Whether and to what extent they also stole or
embezzled money from their corporations for their own benefit if
therefore of no consequence for purposes of the in pari delicto
defense except to the extent, if any, that there is evidence of
culpable participation by defendants in those thefts, he further
pointed out.
Judge Lewis A. Kaplan of the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of New York directed the Clerk the Court, pursuant to
Rule 54(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, to enter a
final judgment in favor of defendants Grant Thornton International
and Grant Thornton LLP, which sought summary judgment for the
dismissal of complaint against them filed by Dr. Enrico Bondi, as
Extraordinary Commissioner of Parmalat Finanziaria S.p.A, Parmalat
S.p.A. and other related entities. On September 21, 2009, Judge
Kaplan entered an opinion granting that summary judgment request.
In separate filings, Dr. Bondi and Parmalat Capital Finance
Limited notified the Court that they will appeal the Summary
Judgment Orders and Opinions.
In response to the notices, Judge Kaplan opined that there is no
just reason for delay because entry of final judgment in favor of
Grant Thornton will not cause duplicative appellate review
inasmuch as the remaining issue of damages to be adjudicated
against the remaining defendant is entirely separate and
dissimilar from the issues to be appealed. He added that judicial
efficiency will be advanced by continuing the determination of the
remaining damages issue against the remaining defendant until the
appeal is resolved, at which time depending on resolution the
issue may be adjudicated on a consolidated basis with similar
issues against Grant Thornton on remand, or if necessary,
independently in the absence of remand.
The Appeals
Parmalat Capital Finance Limited notifies the U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of New York that it will take an appeal
to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit from
Judge Kaplan's judgment dismissing its complaint, entered in the
multidistrict litigation on September 23, 2009, and the Corrected
Opinion entered on September 21, 2009, which corrected and vacated
the opinion entered September 18, 2009. Parmalat also appeals
from the order entered on June 17, 2009.
In a separate filing, Dr. Enrico Bondi, as Extraordinary
Commissioner of Parmalat Finanziaria S.p.A, Parmalat S.p.A. and
other related entities, notifies the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York that it will take an appeal to the
United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit from the
final judgment for the request for summary judgment and for
dismissal filed by Grant Thornton International, Grant Thornton
LLP, and Bank of America Corporation, et al.

BANK CENTERCREDIT: Fitch Affirms Individual Rating at 'D/E'
-----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has revised Kazakhstan-based Halyk Bank's and Bank
CenterCredit's Outlooks to Stable from Negative and Evolving,
respectively. A third Kazakh bank, Kazkommertsbank, remains on
Negative Outlook. All the ratings of the three banks are
affirmed.
The Outlook revisions reflect the banks' now solid and reasonable
loss absorption capacity compared to credit risks faced and
potential further loan impairment recognition. The Outlooks also
reflect the more positive outlook for the Kazakh economy, which
makes further substantial deterioration in these banks' asset
quality less likely, in Fitch's view: the agency forecasts
economic growth of 3.0% in 2010 (2009E: contraction of -1.5%), and
views further depreciation of the KZT unlikely in the near-term
given the current oil price. Halyk's and BCC's ratings are also
supported by their moderate large ticket debt repayments in the
near- to medium-term, currently strong liquidity and sizable or
significant local franchises.
The 'B-' Long-term IDR and Negative Outlook on KKB reflects the
still very high credit risks faced by the bank and the potential
for eventual loan impairment recognition to exceed the bank's loss
absorption capacity. A higher share of foreign funding relative
to peers is also a concern, with significant repayments due from
2011, although Fitch notes that refinancing risk has reduced
considerably after large debt repayments in 2007-2009.
Halyk's and KKB's large franchises and the track record of
government equity and funding injections into the two banks
suggest the authorities could provide further moderate assistance
to these entities, if required. However, given the government's
apparent reluctance to provide substantial support to the
country's banks in all circumstances (as highlighted by the
defaults of BTA Bank, Alliance Bank and Temirbank in 2009, all
rated 'Restricted Default') this assistance cannot be fully relied
upon, in Fitch's view. Potential rating upside exists for BCC
should Korea's Kookmin Bank ('A+'/Stable) increase further its
stake (currently 30%) in BCC and demonstrate a willingness to
support BCC in case of need; however, Fitch notes Kookmin's
currently very gradual approach to increasing its participation in
the bank's capital.
Halyk's asset quality remains weak, with NPLs (loans more than 90
days overdue) reaching 16.7% at end-November 2009 according to
regulatory data, and restructured loans comprising 23% of the loan
book at end-9M09 (all end-9M09 data is according to IFRS). Asset
quality performance is undermined by the significant exposure to
the troubled construction and real estate sectors (end-9M09: 20%
of the loan book), while exposure to the 20 largest borrowers (26%
of the loan book) and the share of FX lending (53%) are also high.
However, reported loan impairment numbers have shown some signs of
stabilization in H209, with NPLs rising only 2pp during the five
months to end-November. Furthermore, Halyk has built up
considerable loss absorption capacity, and at end-November 2009
could have increased its impairment reserves to 31% of loans (from
the actual level of 18.8%) before its total regulatory capital
adequacy ratio would have fallen to the minimum 10% level.
Accrued (but not received) interest was a sizable 43% of equity
(based on local accounts) at end-2009, which significantly
undermines the quality of capital; however, this ratio was still
notably lower than at peers. Halyk has a moderate share of
foreign funding (end-2009: 15% of total liabilities) with distant
large ticket repayments (from 2013). Liquidity is currently
comfortable, with cash and bank placements up to one month
comprising 21% of assets at end-2009; however, funding is heavily
reliant on deposits from state-owned companies.
BCC's reported asset quality numbers are much better than peers',
with NPLs moderate at 4% at end-November 2009 and restructured
loans approximately 7.7% at end-Q309. However, Fitch notes that
interest accruals amounted to 8% of end-2009 gross loans and
accounted for a considerable 23% of 2009 interest income (both
ratios in line with those at Halyk), suggesting somewhat weaker
loan performance than headline asset quality numbers indicate.
Fitch also notes that BCC's exposure to the construction and real
estate sectors (17% of the loan book at end-9M09), individual
borrower concentrations (20 largest borrowers comprised 24% of the
portfolio) and share of foreign currency lending (58%) are broadly
in line with those of Halyk. Loss absorption capacity is
significant, with the bank able to increase its reserves/loans
ratio to 24% at end-November 2009 (from the actual level of 11.2%)
before the capital ratio would have fallen to 10%. However, the
quality of capital is undermined by the sizable interest accruals
(equal to 65% of equity at end-2009) and the large tier 2
component (35% of total capital). BCC's foreign funding was a
moderate 22% of liabilities at end-2009; although BCC will need to
make a significant repayment in 2011 (equal to 7% of liabilities),
the bank's liquidity is currently strong, with cash and up to one-
month bank placements accounting for 17% of assets at end-2009.
KKB's reported asset quality metrics have continued to deteriorate
in H209, with NPLs rising to 17.3% at end-November 2009 from 8.8%
at end-H109 and restructured loans standing at 18.1% at end-9M09
(on a consolidated basis). Credit risks remain substantial in
light of the high share of lending to the construction and real
estate sectors (end-9M09: 34%), while borrower concentrations and
foreign currency lending (71%) are also higher than at peers.
Most large exposures continue to show clear signs of impairment,
in Fitch's view, while high interest accruals (equal to 38% of
unconsolidated interest income during 2009 and 89% of equity at
end-2009) underline weaknesses in loan performance. Loss
absorption capacity appears to be high (maximum reserves/loans
ratio of 31% at end-November 2009 compared to actual ratio of
24.9%), but this is undermined by concerns about quality of
capital and potential loan impairment. At the same time, Fitch
notes that the reduction in foreign debt has been substantial
during H209 (to around 33% from 46% of liabilities) with the next
significant repayments coming due only in 2011 (equal to 7% of
end-2009 liabilities).

BTA BANK: National Wellbeing Fund May Sell 85% Stake to Sberbank
----------------------------------------------------------------
Ilya Khrennikov at Bloomberg News, citing RIA Novosti, reports
that Kazakhstan's National Wellbeing Fund may sell as much as 85%
of BTA Bank to Russia's OAO Sberbank.
According to Bloomberg, the Moscow-based newswire said the fund
aims to start negotiations with Sberbank in the second quarter as
part of a plan to restructure BTA's debt.
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe, the fund took
control of BTA in February and the bank defaulted in April after
credit markets froze and Kazakhstan's property bubble burst.
Citing Bloomberg News, the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe
reported on Dec. 10, 2009, that BTA signed a non-binding agreement
with creditors on options for restructuring its debt. Bloomberg
disclosed the bank reached a compromise with bondholders that will
give them cash and new securities equal to about half of the
US$11.6 billion they are owed.
BTA Bank AO (BTA Bank JSC), formerly Bank TuranAlem AO --
http://bta.kz/-- is a Kazakhstan-based financial institution,
which is involved in the provision of banking and financial
products for private and corporate clients. The Bank has in its
offer personal banking services, comprised of current accounts,
savings accounts, term deposits, safety deposit boxes, money
transfer services, credit facilities, and corporate banking
services, including business accounts, credit facilities, treasury
services, letters of guarantee, letters of credit, foreign
exchange services, remittances and other solutions, as well as
debt and credit cards, card services and electronic banking
services. The Bank has 14 subsidiaries and six affiliated
companies. It offers its services through a network of numerous
regional branches, cash settlement centers throughout Kazakhstan
and international representative offices located in Ukraine,
Russia, China and the United Arab Emirates.
HALYK BANK: Fitch Affirms Individual Rating at 'D/E'
----------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has revised Kazakhstan-based Halyk Bank's and Bank
CenterCredit's Outlooks to Stable from Negative and Evolving,
respectively. A third Kazakh bank, Kazkommertsbank, remains on
Negative Outlook. All the ratings of the three banks are
affirmed.
The Outlook revisions reflect the banks' now solid and reasonable
loss absorption capacity compared to credit risks faced and
potential further loan impairment recognition. The Outlooks also
reflect the more positive outlook for the Kazakh economy, which
makes further substantial deterioration in these banks' asset
quality less likely, in Fitch's view: the agency forecasts
economic growth of 3.0% in 2010 (2009E: contraction of -1.5%), and
views further depreciation of the KZT unlikely in the near-term
given the current oil price. Halyk's and BCC's ratings are also
supported by their moderate large ticket debt repayments in the
near- to medium-term, currently strong liquidity and sizable or
significant local franchises.
The 'B-' Long-term IDR and Negative Outlook on KKB reflects the
still very high credit risks faced by the bank and the potential
for eventual loan impairment recognition to exceed the bank's loss
absorption capacity. A higher share of foreign funding relative
to peers is also a concern, with significant repayments due from
2011, although Fitch notes that refinancing risk has reduced
considerably after large debt repayments in 2007-2009.
Halyk's and KKB's large franchises and the track record of
government equity and funding injections into the two banks
suggest the authorities could provide further moderate assistance
to these entities, if required. However, given the government's
apparent reluctance to provide substantial support to the
country's banks in all circumstances (as highlighted by the
defaults of BTA Bank, Alliance Bank and Temirbank in 2009, all
rated 'Restricted Default') this assistance cannot be fully relied
upon, in Fitch's view. Potential rating upside exists for BCC
should Korea's Kookmin Bank ('A+'/Stable) increase further its
stake (currently 30%) in BCC and demonstrate a willingness to
support BCC in case of need; however, Fitch notes Kookmin's
currently very gradual approach to increasing its participation in
the bank's capital.

LYONDELLBASELL INDUSTRIES: Reports Third Quarter 2009 Results
-------------------------------------------------------------
LyondellBasell Industries AF S.C.A. posted quarterly financial
results for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The report was
prepared on December 30, 2009, but was made available on
LyondellBasell's Web site in January 2010.
LyondellBasell had operating income of US$419 million in the third
quarter 2009 compared to operating income of US$274 million in the
second quarter 2008. Sales volumes improved significantly by the
third quarter of 2009, resulting in higher operating income
relative to third quarter 2008, which was impacted by hurricane
related operating constraints in the U.S. Moreover, results from
both the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 reflect
benefits of LyondellBasell's cost reduction program, partly offset
by the unfavorable effect of currency exchange rates on non-U.S.
operating income.
Moreover, LyondellBasell had a loss from continuing operations of
US$649 million in the third quarter of 2009 compared to a loss
from continuing operations of US$353 million in the second quarter
of 2009. Underlying operating results improved US$215 million,
after tax, primarily due to higher product margins for the
chemicals and polymers segments and overall higher sale volumes,
partially offset by lower fuels segment product margins and lower
profitability in the technology and R&D segment. Offsetting the
operational improvement, the third quarter 2009 loss from
continuing operations included Chapter 11 costs of US$603 million,
and an impairment charge of US$215 million on certain equity
investments partially offset by a US$32 million after-tax
involuntary conversion gain from insurance proceeds. In addition,
the second quarter 2009 results included Chapter 11 reorganization
costs of US$81 million, after tax. The remaining difference was
primarily due to a higher effective tax rate in the third quarter
2009 compared to the second quarter 2009.

Basell AF and Lyondell Chemical Company merged operations in 2007
to form LyondellBasell Industries, the world's third largest
independent chemical company. LyondellBasell became saddled with
debt as part of the US$12.7 billion merger. On January 6, 2009,
LyondellBasell Industries' U.S. operations and one of its European
holding companies -- Basell Germany Holdings GmbH -- filed
voluntary petitions to reorganize under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code to facilitate a restructuring of the company's
debts. The case is In re Lyondell Chemical Company, et al.,
Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Lead Case No. 09-10023). Seventy-nine Lyondell
entities, including Equistar Chemicals, LP, Lyondell Chemical
Company, Millennium Chemicals Inc., and Wyatt Industries, Inc.
filed for Chapter 11. In May 2009, one of the cases was dismissed
-- Case No. 09-10068 -- because it is duplicative of Case No. 09-
10040 relating to Debtor Glidden Latin America Holdings.
The Hon. Robert E. Gerber presides over the case. Deryck A.
Palmer, Esq., at Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP, in New York,
serves as the Debtors' bankruptcy counsel. Evercore Partners
serves as financial advisors, and Alix Partners and its subsidiary

of the bankruptcy filing date.
Lyondell has obtained approximately US$8 billion in DIP financing
to fund continuing operations. The DIP financing includes two
credit agreements: a US$6.5 billion term loan, which comprises a
US$3.25 billion in new loans and a US$3.25 billion roll-up of
existing loans; and a US$1.57 billion asset-backed lending
facility.
Luxembourg-based LyondellBasell Industries AF S.C.A. and another
affiliate were voluntarily added to Lyondell Chemical's
reorganization filing under Chapter 11 on April 24, 2009, in order
to seek protection against claims by certain financial and U.S.
trade creditors. On May 8, 2009, LyondellBasell Industries added
13 non-operating entities to Lyondell Chemical Company's
reorganization filing under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy
Code. All of the entities are U.S. companies and were added to
the original Chapter 11 filing for administrative purposes. The
filings will have no impact on current business or operations as
none of the entities manufactures or sells products.

LYONDELLBASELL INDUSTRIES: Updates Investors on November Results
----------------------------------------------------------------
LyondellBasell Vice President for Investor Relations Douglas Pike
shared with investors the company's results for the month of
November 2009.
Mr. Pike said that November 2009 results are well ahead of plan.
With respect to the fuels segment, he related that depressed
refining conditions are adversely affecting results. Moreover,
oxyfuels margins experienced seasonal decline, he noted. As to
the chemicals segment, he explained that U.S. olefin margins
declined slightly while ethane was favored. In addition, EU
olefins were under increased cost pressure and PO, intermediates
and derivatives volumes and margins were moderately lower compared
in October 2009. Under the polymers section, Mr. Pike continued,
U.S. polyethylene exports continue to be strong. He further noted
that polymers' volumes were slightly higher and margins were
generally lower than in October 2009, and that LyondellBasell
benefited from an insurance payment related to its Munchsmunster
polymer plant rebuild.
For the fourth quarter of 2009 and early 2010, Mr. Pike disclosed
that LyondellBasell foresees weak refining conditions will
continue. LyondellBasell also anticipates season drop in oxyfuels
margins. LyondellBasell further expects early turnaround of plant
at Corpus Christi, Texas. Polymers outlook continues to be
dependent upon U.S. polyethylene export opportunities, he added.

AK YAKUTSKENERGO: Fitch Affirms LT Foreign Currency IDR at 'BB'
---------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the Long-term foreign currency Issuer
Default Ratings of six Russian companies, whilst simultaneously
revising their rating Outlooks to Stable from Negative.
The rating actions follow Fitch's revision earlier of the Russian
Federation's ratings Outlook to Stable, and the affirmation of
Russia's Long-term foreign and local currency Issuer Default
Ratings at 'BBB'.
The rating actions are:
JSC Russian Railways
-- Long-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'BBB'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Long-term local currency IDR: affirmed at 'BBB'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Local currency senior unsecured rating: affirmed at 'BBB'
-- Short-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'F3'
-- Short-term local currency IDR: affirmed at 'F3'
-- National Long-term rating: affirmed at 'AAA(rus)'; Outlook
Stable
-- National senior unsecured rating: affirmed at 'AAA(rus)'
RZD's ratings are aligned with those of the Russian Federation,
reflecting its 100% state ownership and strategic importance. The
rating alignment further captures state involvement in tariff-
setting, overall financial planning, direct equity injections,
funding by government-controlled banks and the provision of
subsidies for the freight and loss-making passenger transportation
divisions. Direct subsidies are set to represent an increasing
proportion of EBITDAR (10% in FY08), further strengthening RZD's
links with the state, but also its reliance on the government.
OJSC Transcontainer
-- Long-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'BB+'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Long-term local currency IDR: affirmed at 'BB+'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Short-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'B'
-- Short-term local currency IDR: affirmed at 'B'
-- Senior unsecured rating: affirmed at 'BB+'
-- National Long-term rating: affirmed at 'AA(rus)'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
Transcontainer's ratings reflect the strong strategic and
operational ties between Transcontainer and its parent, the state-
owned Russian railway monopoly, JSC Russian Railways. In line
with Fitch's Parent-Subsidiary Rating linkage methodology,
Transcontainer's Long-term IDRs have been notched down two levels
from those of RZD.
Sukhoi Civil Aircraft JSC
-- Long-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'BB'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Long-term local currency IDR: affirmed at 'BB' ; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Short-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'B'
-- Short-term local currency IDR: affirmed at 'B'
-- Senior unsecured rating: affirmed at 'BB'
-- National Long-term rating: affirmed at 'AA-(rus)'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- National Short-term rating: affirmed at 'F1+(rus)'
The ratings of Sukhoi Civil Aircraft JSC's are driven by the
strong links to its ultimate majority (75% minus one share)
shareholder, the Russian Federation and the strategic nature of
its flagship product, the Super Jet 100 (SSJ100), to the state.
The ratings of SCAC are notched down from those of the sovereign
as a result of purely verbal representations from state officials
regarding the support SCAC can rely on from the Russian government
for additional equity injections over and above what has already
been contributed.
JSC RusHydro
-- Long-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'BB+'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- National Long-term rating: affirmed at 'AA(rus)'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
RusHydro's ratings are notched down by one notch from the
sovereign's due to its state ownership, the strategic importance
of the company to the state, and a degree of reliance by the
company on investment funding from the state.
OAO AK Yakutskenergo
-- Long-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'BB'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Long-term local currency IDR: affirmed at 'BB'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- National Long-term rating: affirmed at 'AA-(rus)'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
YE's ratings are notched down by three notches from the Russian
Federation's rating due to state ownership, the strategic
importance of the company to the state, direct federal
subsidization, and its reliance on state-controlled banks for the
majority of debt funding and liquidity.
OAO Gazprom
-- Long-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'BBB'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Long-term local currency IDR: affirmed at 'BBB'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Short-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'F3'
-- Senior unsecured rating: affirmed at 'BBB'
-- Gaz Capital S.A.'s debt issuance programme: affirmed at 'BBB'
Gazprom's ratings are based on its standalone profile. However,
state ownership and the influence of the state on Gazprom's
business environment have an indirect influence on both its
financial and business profile.
BANK VTB: Fitch Affirms Individual Rating at 'D'
-----------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has revised the Outlooks on 13 Russian banks, three
European banking subsidiaries of Russian Bank VTB and two Russian
leasing companies to Stable from Negative and affirmed their
ratings.
The rating actions follow the agency's revision of the Outlooks on
Russia's Long-term Issuer Default Ratings to Stable from Negative.
The change in Outlooks on the Long-term IDRs of ZAO Unicredit
Bank, ZAO Raiffeisenbank, ZAO Citibank, Nordea Bank, CJSC
Santander Consumer Bank, ZAO Danske Bank and Rosbank reflect the
diminished likelihood of a downgrade of Russia's Country Ceiling
('BBB+') following the change in the sovereign Outlook. Russia's
Country Ceiling captures transfer and convertibility risks and
limits the extent to which support from the foreign shareholders
of these banks can be factored into their Long-term foreign
currency IDRs. Their Long-term local-currency IDRs, where
assigned, also take account of Russian country risks.
ZAO Unicredit Bank is 100%-owned by UniCredit S.p.A.
('A'/Negative), ZAO Raiffeisenbank is 99.97%-owned by Raiffeisen
International Bank-Holding AG, which in turn is 68.5%-owned by
Austria's Raiffeisen Zentralbank Osterreich AG ('A'/Stable),
Nordea Bank is 100%-owned by Nordea Bank AB ('AA-'/Stable), CJSC
Santander Consumer Bank is 100%-owned by Santander Consumer
Finance ('AA'/Stable), ZAO Citibank is 100%-owned by Citigroup
Inc. ('A+'/Stable) via US-based subsidiaries, ZAO Danske Bank is
100%-owned by Danske Bank A/S ('A+'/Stable) and Rosbank is 64.7%-
owned by France's Societe Generale ('A+'/Stable). The Long- and
Short-term IDRs and Support ratings of these banks reflect the
high probability of support that would likely be forthcoming from
their majority shareholders, in case of need.
The change in Outlooks on the Long-term IDRs of Vnesheconombank,
Sberbank, Bank VTB and Russian Agricultural Bank reflect Fitch's
view of the now less likely deterioration in the government's
ability to provide support in case of need, as reflected in the
sovereign rating action.
The Russian state owns 85.5% of the ordinary shares of Bank VTB
and 60.25% of the voting shares of Sberbank. Russian Agricultural
Bank is fully-owned by the government. Vnesheconombank is a state
corporation established by the Russian Federation and was assigned
the role of a national development bank by federal law in May
2007.
The change in Outlooks on the Long-term IDRs of Bank VTB North-
West, Bank VTB24, VTB Leasing, VTB Bank (Austria), VTB Capital
plc. and Russian Commercial Bank (Cyprus) follows the revision of
the Outlook for their parent, Bank VTB. The change in Outlook on
the Long-term IDR of VEB-Leasing follows the revision of the
Outlook for its majority owner, Vnesheconombank. These rating
actions indicate the more secure ability of VTB and
Vnesheconombank to provide support due, in turn, to the now less
likely deterioration in support from the Russian state.
The rating actions are:
Bank VTB (JSC)
-- Long-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'BBB'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Long-term local currency IDR: affirmed at 'BBB'; Outlook
revised to Stable from Negative
-- Short-term foreign currency IDR: affirmed at 'F3'

GAZPROMBANK MORTGAGE: Moody's Reviews Caa3-Rated Notes for Upgrade
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has taken this rating action on the
notes issued by:
Gazprombank Mortgage Funding 2 S.A.
-- Class A1, Placed on review for possible downgrade; previously
on March 6, 2009 Downgraded to B3;
-- Class A2, Placed on review for possible upgrade; previously
on March 6, 2009 Downgraded to B3;
-- Class B, Placed on review for possible upgrade; previously on
March 6, 2009 Downgraded to Caa3;
-- Class C, Placed on review for possible upgrade; previously on
March 6, 2009 Downgraded to Caa3.
The rating action is prompted by the announcement of the
noteholder meeting to be held on January 22 whereby the
noteholders will be required to vote on an extraordinary
resolution. According to the proposed extraordinary resolution
the terms and conditions of the class A1 notes will be amended so
that from the interest payment date falling on the January 25,
2009, the class A1 notes will be converted from EUR to RUB at an
exchange rate of EUR1 to RUB34.7. This corresponds to the
exchange rate at closing of the transaction and it is
significantly more favorable than the current prevailing foreign
exchange spot rate.
In this transaction Lehman Brothers Holding Inc. was the guarantor
for both the swap provider and the liquidity facility provider and
therefore Gazprombank 2007-1 is currently fully exposed to foreign
exchange and interest rate risk and does not benefit from any
liquidity source other than the cash reserve fund. In March 2009
Moody's has downgraded all classes of notes assuming that the
Issuer will not find a replacement swap and will be exposed to the
foreign exchange spot rates until maturity.
Moody's notes that if the extraordinary resolution will pass the
class A1 notes will crystallize a principal loss of approximately
14% due to the local currency depreciation from closing. In
addition the transaction will no longer be exposed to currency
risk and therefore the other classes of notes will benefit from
the redenomination of the class A1 notes. Hence Moody's has
placed on review for downgrade the class A1 notes and has placed
on review for upgrade the other notes.
RUSHYDRO JSC: Fitch Affirms Long-Term Foreign Currency IDR at BB+

Fitch Ratings has affirmed the Long-term foreign currency Issuer
Default Ratings of six Russian companies, whilst simultaneously

setting, overall financial planning, direct equity injections,
funding by government-controlled banks and the provision of
subsidies for the freight and loss-making passenger transportation
divisions. Direct subsidies are set to represent an increasing
proportion of EBITDAR (10% in FY08), further strengthening RZD's
links with the state, but also its reliance on the government.

UC RUSAL: Raises US$2.2 Bln in Hong Kong Initial Public Offering
----------------------------------------------------------------
United Co. Rusal Ltd. raised HK$17.4 billion (US$2.2 billion) in
the first initial public offering by a Russian company in Hong
Kong, Bei Hu and Yuriy Humber at Bloomberg News reports, citing
three people familiar with the sale.
According to Bloomberg, the people, who declined to be identified
before a public announcement, said the company, controlled by
billionaire Oleg Deripaska, priced 1.61 billion new shares, or a
10.6%, at HK$10.80 each.
Bloomberg says the final pricing gives Rusal a market value of
US$21 billion, about 12% less than Aluminum Corp. of China Ltd.,
the nation's largest producer of the metal. Rusal offered the
shares at HK$9.10 to HK$12.50, Bloomberg states.
Rusal sold shares to international institutions, professional
investors and wealthy individuals ordering at least HK$1 million
of stock each, Bloomberg relates.
Bloomberg notes the people said the final price gives Rusal an
enterprise value, or sum of its stocks and debt minus cash, that
is 11.7 times the 2010 earnings before interest, tax, depreciation
and amortization, or Ebitda, estimated by banks involved in the
share sale.
Rusal plans to begin trading in Hong Kong on Jan. 27 and list
depositary receipts in Paris, Bloomberg discloses.
Rusal, Bloomberg says, will use its IPO proceeds to cut debt.
Bloomberg recalls Borrowings almost doubled after the company
bought a quarter of OAO GMK Norilsk Nickel before commodity prices
collapsed in 2008. The company cut borrowings to US$14.9 billion,
while extending repayments to as long as seven years, in the debt
restructuring completed in December, Bloomberg recounts.
RIA Novosti reports Libyan Investment Authority bought 1.43% of
Rusal stock for US$300 million while VEB paid US$663 million for a
3.15% stake in the company.
Pollution
Yuriy Humber at Bloomberg News reports Clariden Leu AG, a unit of
Credit Suisse Group AG and co-manager of Rusal's initial public
offering, urged investors to shun Russian Mr. Deripaska's aluminum
company over pollution concerns at the largest freshwater lake.
According to Bloomberg, Clariden's emerging markets funds struck
Rusal from their investment lists and canceled plans to buy shares
in the company after Kommersant reported Jan. 19 that Deripaska's
pulp factory on Lake Baikal would be allowed to re-open.
Clariden told clients considering Rusal shares to "take into
account the business practices of its majority owner," Bloomberg
quoted Zina Psiola, who manages more than US$200 million in
emerging market stocks at the Zurich-based private bank, as
saying. "It's not a Russian but a global issue, saving 20%of the
world's water resources."
Bloomberg notes Sergei Babichenko, a spokesman for Mr. Deripaska's
Basic Element holding company, said the plant won't damage the
environment.
RUSAL -- http://www.rusal.com/-- is among the world's top
aluminum producers, along with Rio Tinto Alcan and Alcoa. Formed
in 2000 from various parts of the old Soviet state apparatus,
RUSAL produces about 4 million tons of aluminum, 11 million tons
of alumina, and 6 million tons of bauxite. Its aluminum business
include packaging and foil operations in addition to a network of
smelters. Those Soviet spare parts were significantly augmented
in 2007 when the company merged with fellow Russian aluminum
producer Sual and Glencore's alumina unit. RUSAL is majority
owned by Board member Oleg Deripaska, who had owned the company
completely prior to the merger.
* RUSSIA: Fitch Affirms Individual Ratings of Eight Banks at 'D'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has revised the Outlooks on 13 Russian banks, three
European banking subsidiaries of Russian Bank VTB and two Russian
leasing companies to Stable from Negative and affirmed their
ratings.
The rating actions follow the agency's revision of the Outlooks on
Russia's Long-term Issuer Default Ratings to Stable from Negative.
The change in Outlooks on the Long-term IDRs of ZAO Unicredit
Bank, ZAO Raiffeisenbank, ZAO Citibank, Nordea Bank, CJSC
Santander Consumer Bank, ZAO Danske Bank and Rosbank reflect the
diminished likelihood of a downgrade of Russia's Country Ceiling
('BBB+') following the change in the sovereign Outlook. Russia's
Country Ceiling captures transfer and convertibility risks and
limits the extent to which support from the foreign shareholders
of these banks can be factored into their Long-term foreign
currency IDRs. Their Long-term local-currency IDRs, where
assigned, also take account of Russian country risks.
ZAO Unicredit Bank is 100%-owned by UniCredit S.p.A.
('A'/Negative), ZAO Raiffeisenbank is 99.97%-owned by Raiffeisen
International Bank-Holding AG, which in turn is 68.5%-owned by
Austria's Raiffeisen Zentralbank Osterreich AG ('A'/Stable),
Nordea Bank is 100%-owned by Nordea Bank AB ('AA-'/Stable), CJSC
Santander Consumer Bank is 100%-owned by Santander Consumer
Finance ('AA'/Stable), ZAO Citibank is 100%-owned by Citigroup
Inc. ('A+'/Stable) via US-based subsidiaries, ZAO Danske Bank is
100%-owned by Danske Bank A/S ('A+'/Stable) and Rosbank is 64.7%-
owned by France's Societe Generale ('A+'/Stable). The Long- and
Short-term IDRs and Support ratings of these banks reflect the
high probability of support that would likely be forthcoming from
their majority shareholders, in case of need.
The change in Outlooks on the Long-term IDRs of Vnesheconombank,
Sberbank, Bank VTB and Russian Agricultural Bank reflect Fitch's
view of the now less likely deterioration in the government's
ability to provide support in case of need, as reflected in the
sovereign rating action.
The Russian state owns 85.5% of the ordinary shares of Bank VTB
and 60.25% of the voting shares of Sberbank. Russian Agricultural
Bank is fully-owned by the government. Vnesheconombank is a state
corporation established by the Russian Federation and was assigned
the role of a national development bank by federal law in May
2007.
The change in Outlooks on the Long-term IDRs of Bank VTB North-
West, Bank VTB24, VTB Leasing, VTB Bank (Austria), VTB Capital
plc. and Russian Commercial Bank (Cyprus) follows the revision of
the Outlook for their parent, Bank VTB. The change in Outlook on
the Long-term IDR of VEB-Leasing follows the revision of the
Outlook for its majority owner, Vnesheconombank. These rating
actions indicate the more secure ability of VTB and
Vnesheconombank to provide support due, in turn, to the now less
likely deterioration in support from the Russian state.

CABLEUROPA SA: Fitch Affirms Issuer Default Ratings at 'B'
----------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed Cableuropa S.A.'s Long- and Short-term
Issuer Default Ratings at 'B' respectively. The Outlook is
Negative. At the same time, Fitch has affirmed the senior secured
facilities of Cableuropa at 'BB-' with a Recovery Rating of 'RR2'
and the 2014 senior notes issued by ONO Finance Plc and ONO
Finance II at 'CCC' with 'RR6'.
On January 13, 2010, Cableuropa announced an amendment proposal
aimed at adjusting the repayment profile of its senior secured
facilities, which otherwise will require significant step-ups in
debt repayments from June 2010 onwards. Senior lenders are being
asked to commit to forward start facilities which would have the
effect of terming out their amortizing A, B and I tranches into
bullet repayments due in June 2013, thus providing the company
with significantly more cashflow headroom in the intervening
years. There is a minimum 80% extension rate in respect of
tranches A and B and 90% in respect of tranche I included as a
condition precedent to the transaction, and Cableuropa has already
secured approvals from lenders representing 44% of the facilities.
The Negative Outlook continues to reflect the risk that the
amendment proposal is not accepted by lenders. Should the
amendment be implemented as proposed, the agency expects to change
the Outlook to Stable.
The proposed amend-and-extend approach to Cableuropa's refinancing
would represent only the first step in the company's overall
strategy to deal with its senior loan facilities refinancing risk,
as the company is seeking consent from its senior lenders to allow
for subsequent (partial) refinancings via senior secured loans or
bonds with tenors beyond 2013. Cableuropa's proposal is further
supported by a EUR125 million cash injection by shareholders at
closing, together with a further EUR75 million committed, to be
injected by YE11 if certain conditions or liquidity thresholds are
not met.
The 'B' IDR is supported by Cableuropa's second incumbent (fixed
line) status in Spain and good business prospects as a result, but
are also constrained by the relatively high leverage (5.4x net
debt/reported LTM EBITDA at end-Q309). The agency expects
significant improvements in funds from free cash-flow generation
from 2010 as the effects of lower capital expenditure and working
capital outflows free up cash, and the final Auna installment of
EUR71 million has been paid in January 2010. The proposed
amendments, if approved, will result in an increase in interest
margins and the incurrence of one-off costs and fees; however,
this is mitigated initially by the additional liquidity provided
by the shareholder injection and also by the run-off of current
EURIBOR hedging contracts at higher-than-current-market rates.
If the proposed amendments do not proceed, this could have
negative implications for the IDRs; however, the eventual outcome
would be dependent on the specific circumstances.
ESPANOLA DEL ZINC: Suspended From Trading; Chief Executive Resigns

regulator said Espanola del Zinc SA was suspended from trading

GENERAL MOTORS: Saab Talks with Spyker Inconclusive
---------------------------------------------------
Nathalie Thomas at The Scotsman reports that General Motors chief
Ed Whitacre last night said advanced talks with Dutch car
manufacturer over the U.S. carmaker's Saab brand have so far
proved inconclusive and it is proceeding with plans to wind down
the operation.
The Scotsman relates Mr. Whitacre told reporters at a press
conference in Detroit last night that no deal has so far been
reached and GM intends to plough on with its wind-down plans for
Saab.
"Obviously there have been advanced talks with Spyker cars to
acquire Saab. However, we do not have a deal to announce," the
Scotsman quoted Mr. Whitacre as saying.
According to the Scotsman, Spyker said "talks are ongoing, the
outcome of which is still uncertain. As Saab is currently in
liquidation talks must end soon."
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe, Bloomberg
News, citing people familiar with the matter, said Spyker has
offered GM about US$75 million in cash and US$325 million in
preferred shares in the company that would emerge from the
transaction. According to Bloomberg, the people said GM would get
US$100 million of Saab's existing liquidity.

AMADEUS ASSOCIATES: In Administration; 26 Jobs Affected
-------------------------------------------------------
BBC News reports that Amadeus Associates International has gone
into administration, resulting in the loss of 26 of 33 jobs at the
company.
The report relates administrators Grant Thornton said they were
"working closely with a new management team" to secure its future.
"This company manufactures a highly regarded range of products but
the retail downturn has been a major issue for the business in
recent months," the report quoted Alistair Wardell, Grant Thornton
partner, as saying. "While we are in discussion with a number of
interested parties, we are also appealing to possible investors to
contact us immediately if they are interested in acquiring a well-
established business with a number of key licensing agreements in
place."
Based in Llandaff North in Cardiff, Amadeus Associates
International makes a range of cups and bowls for babies and
toddlers. The company is best known for the Anyway Up cup, which
has sold 35 million worldwide, the 360o and Cow cups and its
Always Learning range.
BRADFORD & BINGLEY: European Commission Approves Liquidation
------------------------------------------------------------
The European Commission has approved under EU state aid rules UK
Government measures granted for the liquidation of Bradford &
Bingley. Following Bradford & Bingley's split-up and
nationalization of the part containing the impaired assets in
2008, the UK authorities notified a liquidation plan for the bank.
The Commission has authorized the measures, because they are
appropriate and necessary for an orderly winding down of the bank
while taking into account the necessity to preserve the confidence
of creditors in the financial system and remedy a serious
disturbance of the UK economy. The Commission therefore concluded
that the plan is compatible with Article 107(3)(b) of the Treaty
on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), that allows aid
to remedy a serious disturbance in a Member State's economy.
Competition Commissioner Neelie Kroes said "The Bradford & Bingley
decision illustrates once again the positive contribution of EU
state aid policy to ensuring orderly and effective solutions to
tackle the financial crisis. The UK authorities' market-oriented
solution has avoided any disproportionate distortions of
competition while enabling the preservation of the viable parts of
the business."
The decision in the case of Bradford & Bingley, together with the
decision taken on Dunfermline, is closing the chapter of UK bank
restructuring prompted by State aid in the context of the
financial crisis.
Bradford and Bingley provided specialist mortgages and savings
products. It operated 197 branches and 141 agencies spread across
the UK. Its market share of net new mortgage lending at the end
of the 2007 was 7.7%.
By September 2008, the bank had fallen into difficulties due to
its dependence on wholesale funding and its risky loan portfolio,
which resulted in the withdrawal of its license to accept deposits
by the UK Financial Services Authority. The UK authorities
decided to nationalize and wind down the bank while it was still
solvent, sell its retail deposit book and branches to Abbey
National and provide the remaining part of the business with a
working capital facility and guarantee arrangements. These
measures were authorized by the Commission as rescue aid on
October 1, 2008, under which the UK was obliged to submit
liquidation or restructuring plan for Bradford & Bingley.
The liquidation plan submitted by the UK foresees a prolongation
of the rescue measures previously authorized, which are now
extended for the liquidation of the bank, and a potential capital
injection.
The Commission concluded that the liquidation plan ensures an
orderly winding down of Bradford & Bingley in a manner which
maintains financial stability. The liquidation period covers more
that 10 years. However, once the bank is no longer active in the
market, competitive distortions are limited. The wind-down can be
accelerated by a sale of the remaining assets when market
conditions improve.
Bradford & Bingley is no longer active on the market. However,
the Commission accepted that in order to facilitate the orderly
wind-down of its portfolio, it will continue offering limited
services to its existing clients. In the same vein, Bradford &
Bingley will relinquish or limit any regulatory permission that is
not required for the orderly wind-down of the business.
The Commission will strictly monitor the progress of the wind-down
process and its impact on competition.
DUNFERMLINE BUILDING: EU Commission Approves Restructuring Aid
--------------------------------------------------------------
The European Commission has approved under EU state aid rules the
aid given by the UK authorities to facilitate restructuring of the
Dunfermline Building Society of the United Kingdom.
The restructuring consisted of the immediate split-up of
Dunfermline, after which the part containing the good assets and
liabilities was sold in an auction to a competitor with a
financial contribution by the UK State of over GBP1.5 billion.
The part containing the impaired assets was put into
administration. The Commission found that the orderly break-up of
Dunfermline resulted in the return to viability of the good part
that was sold. The Commission furthermore concluded that there
was sufficient burden-sharing as subordinated debt-holders
contributed to the restructuring as much as possible and that the
liquidation of a substantial part of Dunfermline limited the
distortion of competition caused by the aid. The Commission
therefore concluded that the direct restructuring is compatible
with the EU rules on state aid to remedy a serious disturbance in
a Member State's economy (Article 87(3)(b) of the EC Treaty).
Competition Commissioner Neelie Kroes said, "The decision on
Dunfermline again demonstrates that EU state aid policy is part of
the solution to tackle the financial crisis. The UK authorities
opted for a market-oriented solution which enabled competitors to
obtain the viable parts of the businesses, while at the same time
sufficient safeguards were put in place to ensure burden-sharing
and to limit distortions of competition."
The decision in the case of Dunfermline, together with the
decision on Bradford & Bingley, is closing the chapter of UK bank
restructuring prompted by State aid in the context of the
financial crisis.
Dunfermline is a building society predominantly active in
Scotland. It provides many of the same financial services as a
retail bank, mainly to retail customers and small and medium-sized
companies. Its structure however is different from a bank in that
it is essentially "mutual" in nature. This means that its
depositors are the members of the building society and its profits
are channeled back into the business for their benefit.
Dunfermline encountered difficulties as a result of its exposure
to loans for housing development, commercial investment and buy-
to-let. Due to the increased likelihood of defaults on these
commercial loans, Dunfermline was forced to make substantial
provisions to cover potential impairments.
The UK authorities split-up Dunfermline into two parts; one part
containing the good quality assets and liabilities (representing
approximately 50% of the business) which was immediately sold to a
competitor (Nationwide Building Society) and the other containing
the impaired commercial loan assets which was put into
administration. Since the liabilities of the package sold
initially exceeded the assets, the UK authorities had to provide
over GBP1.5 billion in cash (most of which can eventually be
recovered from the UK's deposit guarantee scheme) in order to
enable the sale to go through. The UK also provided a working
capital loan of GBP10 million to Dunfermline in administration to
allow it to meet its pre-administration contractual commitments.
As regards the direct restructuring of Dunfermline, the Commission
found that the orderly break-up of Dunfermline, followed by the
sale of the viable part to a competitor ensured the return of
viability of the sold business. The Commission furthermore
concluded there was sufficient burden-sharing as subordinated
debt-holders contributed to the restructuring as much as possible,
while the restructuring costs were limited through an auction
process. Finally, the Commission concluded that the distortion of
competition caused by the aid was limited because of the profound
restructuring, the sale of the viable part of the business to a
competitor through an auction, the liquidation of the remaining
part and the limited market share of Dunfermline in both the
Scottish and broader UK markets.
EMI GROUP: Citigroup Wants Buyout Suit to Be Moved to London
------------------------------------------------------------
Martin Arnold at The Financial Times reports that Citigroup has
called for its legal battle with Terra Firma over the private
equity group's buy-out of music group EMI to be moved from New
York to London.
According to the FT, the location of the lawsuit is important as
it could determine how much Terra Firma may be awarded from
Citigroup in damages, its ability to obtain information from the
US bank, and whether the lender can recoup its costs if it wins.
The FT says Terra Firma, the UK private equity group run by Guy
Hands, has until February 4 to respond to Citi's request for the
case against it to be dismissed in New York and moved to a London
courtroom. If the case remains in New York, it is set to begin on
October 18, the FT states.
The FT relates Citigroup told the Federal district court of New
York the case should be moved to London because agreements
governing the auction of EMI and Citigroup's financing of its
acquisition by Terra Firma specified that any dispute should be
settled in London and that almost all the major events, companies
and people referred to in the lawsuit were based in London, so
holding the case in New York would be inappropriate on the grounds
of "forum non conveniens".
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Dec. 14,
2009, the FT said Mr. Hands claimed that the bank both advised EMI
and financed his GBP4 billion acquisition of the UK music company
fraudulently misrepresented the facts of the auction. Terra Firma
is seeking unspecified punitive damages on top of the GBP1.5
billion-plus writedown Mr. Hands has taken on his investment, the
FT said. The FT noted Citigroup said it would defend itself
vigorously against a case, which it said was without merit. At
its core are two claims: that Citigroup encouraged Mr. Hands to
make a 265p per share binding bid by a May 21, 2007 deadline, even
though other bidders had allegedly dropped out; and that a
Citigroup analyst report on Warner Music at the time was an
attempt to force the indebted EMI into its bank's hands, the FT
disclosed.
Citing The New York Post, the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe
reported on Sept. 30, 2009, that Citigroup, which is seeking to
reduce the size of its balance sheet, may force EMI into
bankruptcy.
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Aug. 18,
2009, The Wall Street Journal said EMI Music isn't generating
enough profit to comply with a GBP950 million loan from Citigroup.
According to the WSJ, people familiar with the situation said EMI
Music will need cash injections over the next eight months to
avoid defaulting on the loan -- and it is unclear how much more
cash Mr. Hands is willing to invest. The WSJ said if Mr. Hands,
who has injected about GBP80 million into EMI Music through its
parent company, Maltby Capital Ltd., doesn't come up with the
money, Citigroup could seek to take control of the business and
sell it. The WSJ disclosed the Citigroup loan requires increases
in EMI Music's earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and
amortization relative to the size of its debt, the Journal
disclosed. According to the WSJ, since September, EMI Music has
been subjected to three "covenant tests" to see if it meets the
ratio -- and failed each one.
EMI -- http://www.emigroup.com/-- is the fourth largest record
company in terms of market share (behind Universal Music Group,
Sony Music Entertainment, and Warner Music Group). It houses
recorded music segment EMI Music and EMI Music Publishing. EMI
Music distributes CDs, videos, and other formats primarily through
imprints and divisions such as Capitol Records and Virgin, and
sports a roster of artists such as The Beastie Boys, Norah Jones,
and Lenny Kravitz. EMI Music Publishing, the world's largest
music publisher, handles the rights to more than a million songs.
EMI Music operates through regional divisions (EMI Music North
America, International, and UK & Ireland). Private equity firm
Terra Firma owns EMI.
JS CHILDRENSWEAR: In Administration; MCR Appointed
--------------------------------------------------
Paul Clark and Matt Bond, Partners at MCR, have been appointed
joint administrators of JS Childrenswear Limited together with Ian
Yerrill of Gerald Edelman on Friday, January 22, 2010.
The 75-year-old business, which trades under the brand name of
Adams, has more than 120 stores in the UK and employs over 2,000
staff.
Operating from its base in Nuneaton, Adams is one of the largest
independent childrenswear retailers in the UK, which at its height
had 271 own brand stores and concessions throughout the UK trading

Limited was sold to JS Childrenswear Limited, a newly formed
company backed by John Shannon, following a period in
administration. The current business employs more than 2,000
staff throughout the UK and Ireland in over 120 retail outlets.
More recently Mr. Shannon sold the company to Habib Alvi
Investments Limited under the control of a Mr Syed Sabur Ali.
Paul Clark, Partner, MCR, stated: "Like many retailers, it has
experienced a difficult trading environment during the course of
the past 12 months which has been exacerbated by a further
downturn and general tightening of the credit markets." Mr. Clark
added: "I personally addressed the Head Office staff earlier
[Fri]day. There are understandably concerned about their own
position. We have also held telephone conference calls with all
of the area managers with a view to ensuring that the full support
of the shops workforce is continued. We fully appreciate the
difficult position in which the staff find themselves so soon
after Christmas. We are grateful for the assistance that we have
received so far."
"The Company is trading as normal at present while all options are
considered. This has involved contact being made with the
essential suppliers, many of whom have been unpaid for some time.
We are now looking at the viability of the business with a view to
securing a going concern sale," Mr. Clark concluded.
The affairs, business and property of the Company are being
managed by the Administrators, who act as agents of the Company
and without personal liability. The role of the Administrator is
to deal with the business and assets of the insolvent estate. All
Administrators are licensed by the Insolvency Practitioners'
Association.
KAUPTHING SINGER: Administrator Puts Three Loan Books Up for Sale
-----------------------------------------------------------------
John Glover at Bloomberg News, citing the Sunday Times, reports
that Kaupthing Singer & Friedlander has put three loan books
valued at GBP2 billion (US$3.2 billion) up for sale.
According to Bloomberg, the newspaper said a GBP1-billion book of
real-estate loans that the administrator Ernst & Young LLP has put
up for sale is probably the most attractive.
Bloomberg relates the newspaper said a total of GBP1.2 billion was
lent to individuals, while about 25% of the total GBP824 million
pounds of loans to corporations aren't performing.
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe, the U.K.
government seized Kaupthing Singer & Friedlander in October 2008,
saying it couldn't meet its obligations to depositors.
Kaupthing Singer & Friedlander is the U.K. unit of collapsed
Icelandic lender Kaupthing Bank hf.
LEHMAN BROTHERS: Linklaters Advised PwC on Claim Resolution Pact
----------------------------------------------------------------
Linklaters has advised PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, administrators
to Lehman Brothers International (Europe), on the Claim Resolution
Agreement, the new process by which client assets can start to be
returned. It was announced late December that the CRA has become
unconditional, having received the support of more than 90% of
affected clients.
The CRA is a multilateral contract between LBIE and its clients
which governs the basis on which assets can be returned. Under
these arrangements the administrators expect to return more
than US$11 billion of client assets.
The CRA replaces the originally proposed Scheme of Arrangement,
which was blocked by the Court of Appeal, without delay and was
accepted by an overwhelming majority of affected clients at first
showing.
David Ereira, banking partner at Linklaters who has led the
team working on the development of the CRA, commented, "We are
very pleased to have been able to advise the administrators on
this hugely innovative transaction, which enables the
administrators to return such a significant amount of client
assets."
"The CRA has addressed many of the issues now being grappled with
by the government in their proposed reforms in the insolvency of
investment firms without the need to change the law and will
result in a speedier resolution than may be achieved in other
jurisdictions where other Lehman insolvencies are going on."
The Linklaters team working on first the Scheme of Arrangement and
then the CRA drew upon the expertise of people across the firm who
have been involved in the administration. In addition to the
firm's banking and restructuring & insolvency experts, it included
the debt structured products team (who undertook the detailed
review of Lehman's contracts); the financial regulation group (who
have been advising on all the market facing and regulatory aspects
of the insolvency); the corporate practice; and the dispute
resolution team.
Partners included David Ereira, Michael Voisin, Stephen Fletcher,
Pauline Ashall, Mark Kingstone and Nick Porter. Associates
included Marcus Au Yeung, Jon Branch, Harpal Dhillon, Fionnghuala
Griggs, Patricia Ho, Fiona Houston, Jacqueline Ingram, Clare
Merrifield, James O'Connell, Susan Roscoe and Aisling Zarraga.

MANCHESTER UNITED: Takes GBP54 Million Hit From Bond Issue
----------------------------------------------------------
Ben Marlow and Dominic Rushe at The Sunday Times report that
Manchester United's bond issue has cost the Premier League
football club GBP54 million.
According to the Sunday Times, the sum is more than the club would
expect to have to pay to sign one of Europe's top players.
The Sunday Times says as part of the GBP500 million funds raised
by United last week, the club has been forced to pay GBP15 million
in fees and expenses to investment bankers and lawyers.
It has also taken a GBP39 million hit from the unwinding of
interest rate hedging arrangements on the debt that has been
refinanced by the bond, the Sunday Times discloses. The Sunday
Times notes although the owners, the Glazer family, have managed
to defer payment of some liability, the club is still paying GBP11
million of it upfront.
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Jan. 22,
2010, the FT said accounts issued Jan. 20 for Red Football Joint
Venture, the Glazers' ultimate holding company for Manchester
United, reveal that the club's overall debt has risen from GBP699
million to GBP717 million. The FT disclosed the holding group
paid GBP68.5 million in interest in the year to June 30, and made
an overall profit of GBP6.4 million. The FT said the club faces
having to pay more in interest to investors in its high-risk debt
because it is in danger of exceeding a threshold measuring its
leverage. The club is at risk of exceeding a threshold set in the
payment-in-kind notes -- an instrument allowing borrowers to roll
over cash interest payments -- which were issued as part of its
GBP790 million buy-out in 2005, according to the FT.

MELEA LTD: Placed Into Liquidation; Patents May Be Put Up for Sale
------------------------------------------------------------------
Chris Smith at European Plastics News reports that Gibraltar-based
Melea Ltd., which owns all of the gas-assisted injection molding
patents marketed by Gain Technologies Inc., has been placed into
liquidation.
The report relates the Supreme Court of Gibraltar issued a
liquidation judgment against Melea on Nov. 2, following a petition
brought by U.K.-based Cinpres Gas Injection Ltd., the company's
major creditor. Melea, the report says, owes money to Cinpres
after a British appeals court decision in January 2008. That case
resulted in Cinpres gaining ownership of one of Melea's gas
patents in Europe relating to the overspill molding process, the
report recounts.
The Gibraltar Supreme Court named Christopher Smith, a director at
Grant Thornton (Gibraltar) Ltd., as the liquidator and receiver
for Melea, the report discloses.
"The liquidation is at a very early stage and we are still at the
asset identification stage," the report quoted Mr. Smith as
saying.
According to the report, the liquidator said this process could
still take some considerable time, but that it will ultimately end
with the patent portfolio being sold.
The report notes Mr. Smith said "I am still at the stage of trying
to identify interested parties".
MULTIBUILD LTD: Balfour Beatty in Talks to Buy Business
-------------------------------------------------------
Simon Binns at Crain's Manchester Business, citing Building
magazine, reports that Balfour Beatty is in talks to buy
Multibuild Ltd.
According to Crain's, a report in Building magazine said the deal
could be completed in this week. Crain's says the deal would
increase Balfour's capacity for fit-out work and bolster its
presence in the budget hotel market.
Crain's, citing the report, says some parts of Multibuild would be
closed down if a deal went ahead, with Balfour paying "a minimal
sum."
Balfour Beatty declined to comment on the story, Crain's notes.
As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Jan. 18,
2010, Construction News said Multibuild will be wound up once its
recently agreed company voluntary arrangement comes to an end.
Construction News disclosed the GBP69 million turnover firm's
latest accounts, filed at Companies House on Christmas Eve, reveal
that the directors have "resolved to wind up the company", and
that as such it is no longer operating as a going concern.
Construction News said details of the CVA show Multibuild had
about 250 creditors, which were owed a total of GBP11.3 million,
the report discloses. Under the terms of the CVA, creditors were
asked to accept a percentage of the debts they are owed,
Construction News noted.
Multibuild Ltd. -- http://www.multibuild.co.uk/-- is a
construction firm based in Stockport.
ROCCO FORTE: HBOS Agrees to Extend GBP300 Million Loan
------------------------------------------------------
Dominic Walsh at The Times reports that HBOS, part of Lloyds
Banking Group, agreed to extend a GBP300 million loan to Rocco
Forte Collection, averting a cashflow crisis that threatened the
financial security of the company.
It is understood that Rocco Forte Collection had to hold urgent
talks with the bank last year after the downturn in trade put its
joint venture with HBOS, encompassing seven of its thirteen
hotels, including Brown's, its London flagship, in breach of
financial covenants, the report discloses.
The report notes a source close to the process said that although
the main company was trading within its covenants, the talks had
comprised the whole GBP300 million loan -- split roughly two
thirds in the joint venture and a third in the main group -- after
it was decided that the two were "inextricably linked".
The report says it is understood that, in the past few days, amid
a recent improvement in trading, the bank has agreed to grant an
18-month extension to the combined GBP300 million facility.
According to the report, in return for a relaxation of the
covenants, the Rocco Forte Collection has agreed to a higher rate
of interest.
Rothschild is thought to be advising the group on its debt burden
and its entire corporate structure, the report states.
The Rocco Forte Collection -- http://www.roccofortecollection.com/
-- is a family of 13 highly individual hotels and resorts, with
four new properties due to open within the next three years. The
London-based company is owned by Sir Rocco Forte.
* UK: Buyouts of Insolvent Firms Up in the North West in 2009
-------------------------------------------------------------
The number of businesses bought out from insolvency in the North
West region more than doubled over the past 12 months, Michael
Fahy at Crain's Manchester Business reports, citing research by
Experian Corpfin on behalf of insolvency trade body R3.
According to the report, the research found out that during 2009,
75 acquisitions in the North West involved companies acquired out
of administration or other formal insolvency procedures -- up from
29 the previous year.
The report says insolvent deals accounted for one in every six
acquisitions in the region during the year, compared to one in
every 22 deals in 2008.
During the fourth quarter of 2009, 20 out of the 99 deals
completed in the North West -- one in five -- involved a
distressed business, the report discloses.
"Acquisitions of insolvent businesses in the North West have more
than doubled in a year and remain at high levels. It shows that
canny buyers are taking the opportunity to pick up bargains while
values are low. Each of these statistics represents a business
that is being given a second chance of survival and with it, an
opportunity to save jobs," the report quoted Matt Dunham, North
West regional chair of R3, as saying.
* UK: Retailer Insolvencies Down to 451 in Fourth Quarter 2009
--------------------------------------------------------------
Andrew Cleary at Bloomberg News reports PriceWaterhouseCoopers LLP
on Friday said that the number of retailers filing for insolvency
in the fourth quarter of 2009 in the United Kingdom fell as
refinancing conditions improved and companies benefited from the
collapse of weaker competitors.
According to Bloomberg, PwC said in an e-mailed statement said a
total of 451 retailers filed for insolvency in the period, down
from 507 in the in the third quarter and 557 in the fourth quarter
of 2008.
According to Bloomberg, for all of last year, 2,204 retailers
became insolvent, an 18% increase on 2008.
"By the end of 2009, the downturn had already exposed many
retailers who weren't performing, so I'm not surprised to see a
drop off in insolvencies in the fourth quarter," Bloomberg quoted
Mark Hudson, retail leader at PwC, as saying in the statement.
"Instead there were a number of refinancings which eased the
pressure for some retailers, thereby avoiding insolvency."
* Motor Trade Insolvency Rate Down 1.56% in 2009, Experian Says
---------------------------------------------------------------
The annual rate of motor trade insolvencies dipped in 2009, Motor
Trader.com reports citing research from Experian.
Citing Experian's latest Insolvency and Late Payment indices, the
report says the rate of automotive insolvencies last year was
1.56%, compared with 1.66% in 2008.
According to the report, December saw the highest rate of
insolvencies over the course of 2009 with 0.15% of the sector
becoming insolvent.
The report relates Experian said the financial strength of the
automotive sector saw "significant improvement" throughout 2009.
Automotive businesses saw their average financial strength score
improve from 78.68 in January 2009 to 80.12 in December 2009, the
report discloses.
Experian bases its financial strength score on the likelihood of a
business failing in the next 12 months, with 100 being the least
likely to default and 1 being the most likely, the report notes.

* EUROPE: Companies Could Face EUR400BB Refinancing Crisis in 2010
------------------------------------------------------------------
AlixPartners, the global business-advisory firm, on Jan. 25 said a
EUR397 billion corporate-refinancing crisis could be fast
approaching companies in the European G4, as that is the amount of
the debt of major companies in France, Germany, Italy and the UK
that matures by year end.
"European corporate borrowers could be facing a refinancing crisis
of almost EUR400 billion in 2010," said Stefano Aversa, co-
president of AlixPartners and the firm's head of the EMEA region.
"Despite significant spread-tightening in the credit markets,
there remain only limited options for rolling over this debt.
Therefore, the potential for a very serious cash crunch is
knocking on the door of these companies.
The AlixPartners study looked at debt presently held by 577
European companies, including 150 in France, 114 in Germany, 53 in
Italy and 260 in the UK. A companion study looked at debt held by
about 1,200 U.S.-based corporations, and found that a US$513
billion corporate-refinancing crisis could be in store for
companies in America this year.
"In addition," Mr. Aversa continued. "European banks are still
de-leveraging and cannot be expected to be the source of credit
that they once were, and thus many corporations will turn to bonds
to raise capital, potentially glutting the bond market and
compounding the refinancing crisis."
Companies do have other avenues to liquidity, though, said
Mr. Aversa. "Many of these companies could unlock great amounts
of cash though aggressive 'self-help' programs, such as unlocking
dollars tied up in inventories, payables, receivables, overhead,
trade spend and so forth. Companies are often very surprised to
learn how quickly this 'hidden money' can be found and utilized to
help them meet their debt-refinancing needs. Clearly, aggressive
self help is going to be the name of the game for companies this
year -- or at least it should be."

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.
