CAT OIL: S&P Affirms Long-Term Corporate Credit Rating at 'B+'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it had affirmed its
'B+' long-term and 'B' short-term corporate credit ratings on oil
field services operator C.A.T. oil AG and revised the outlook to
positive from stable.

The affirmation reflects S&P's view that C.A.T. oil AG's market
positions in Russia's hydraulic fracturing (hydrofracturing) and
sidetracking markets remain favorable, while its significant
operating flexibility -- thanks to its small proportion of fixed
costs and discretionary capital expenditures -- helps the company
maintain high profitability and positive free operating cash flow
generation, even in the weak market environment.

"The outlook revision reflects S&P's expectation that the company
should be able to maintain its moderate leverage in the near to
medium term, as well as the improving conditions in the Russian
oilfield services market because of higher oil prices," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Andrey Nikolaev.

The positive outlook reflects the possibility of a one-notch
upgrade in the next 12 months or so, after C.A.T. oil decides on
its dividend policy and determines the scope and funding of its
potential expansionary capital-expenditure program.

"S&P believes that, based on its currently low leverage, the
company has some flexibility to accommodate increased investment
levels or dividends," said Mr. Nikolaev.

In S&P's view, a ratio of adjusted debt to EBITDA of about 1x on a
sustainable basis could be commensurate with a 'BB-' rating.

S&P might revise the outlook to stable if S&P believes that C.A.T.
oil's investment program and dividend policy would lead to a
substantial increase in leverage, such as that the debt-to-EBITDA
ratio approached 2x.

BENUGA SRO: Prague Rejects Vav Energie's Insolvency Petition
------------------------------------------------------------
CTK, citing the insolvency register, reports that the Municipal
Court in Prague has rejected the insolvency petition filed by
construction company Vav Energie against Benuga s. r. o.

According to the report, the court said Vav Energie neither proved
that its claim on Benuga really exists, nor that the the developer
owes money to other companies.  The report notes Vav Energie
claimed that Benuga owes it CZK6.3 million, but the developer's
lawyer said the proposal is unjustified.

Based in Prague, Czech Republic, Benuga s.r.o is 50% owned by the
fund EdR Real Estate (Eastern Europe) Participations from LCF
Rothschild Group.


ODEVNI PODNIK: Wants Creditors to Propose Restructuring Plan
------------------------------------------------------------
The management of Odevni podnik has given up the right to draft a
restructuring plan as it has failed to secure money for operation,
CTK reports citing the company's PR agent Karel Samec.  According
to the report, OP now suggests that creditors propose their own
restructuring plan.

OP, which has been insolvent since January, owes around CZK1.6
billion to its creditors, the report notes.

The report recalls the restructuring, which would prevent the
company from going bankrupt and enable production to continue, was
approved by creditors in early March.

Odevni podnik, a.s. is a textile company based in Prostejov, Czech
Republic.


* CZECH REPUBLIC: One Fifth of Cos. Struggled with Insolvency
-------------------------------------------------------------
CTK, citing a poll by Deloitte, reports that nearly a fifth of
Czech companies had to grapple with their own insolvency last
year, citing worse financing conditions, not a lack of orders, as
the main reason.

According to the report, as many as 89% of the respondents feel
the negative impacts of the current crisis and only 4% see its
positive effect.  As for short-term insolvency, 87% of companies
are optimistic about this year, the report notes.

Deloitte conducted the poll among 200 largest domestic companies,
the report discloses.

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

negotiations with holders of its notes.

Moody's Investors Service downgraded the Corporate Family Rating
of Truvo Subsidiary Corp to Caa3 from Caa2, and its Probability of
Default Rating to Caa2 from Caa1.  At the same time, Moody's
downgraded to Ca from Caa3 the ratings of the EUR395 million and
US$200 million senior notes due 2014 issued by Truvo.  The outlook
for all the ratings is negative.  The downgrade reflects Moody's
concerns about the group's challenging operating environment and
the resulting continuing impact on its financial risk profile,
together with the decreased recovery prospects for debt holders in
the case of distress.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Gelu Sulugiuc at Bloomberg News, citing Copenhagen-based Borsen

cost the deposit guarantee fund DKK800 million (US$144 million).
Bloomberg notes that the deposit guarantee fund is funded by

On Feb. 15, 2010, the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe, citing
Bloomberg News, reported that the Financial Stability agency on
Feb. 12 said in an e-mail that Capinordic A/S account holders at
Capinordic Bank's Swedish branch are not covered by the full
deposit guarantee Denmark has bestowed as part of its first bank
aid package.  According to Bloomberg, the agency said the Swedish
deposits will instead be covered up to EUR50,000 provided through
the Danish guarantee fund for depositors and investors.

The Troubled Company Reporter-Europe, citing Reuters, reported
that Capinordic A/S said on Feb. 11 that the Danish Financial
Supervisory Authority filed a bankruptcy petition against its
subsidiary Capinordic Bank under section 234 of the Danish
Financial Business Act.  Reuters disclosed the company said in a
statement Capinordic Bank on Feb. 10 filed for a suspension of
payments".  The company, as cited by Reuters, said "Capinordic
Bank is considered to be insolvent".   According to Reuters, the
company said the bankruptcy division of the Maritime and
Commercial Court subsequently commenced bankruptcy proceedings
against Capinordic Bank.  The company added that it expected the
bankruptcy estate and the state company formed to administer
failed banks, Finansiel Stabilitet A/S, to agree on the transfer
of Capinordic Bank assets and liabilities or some of them to
Finansiel Stabilitet, Reuters noted.

Capinordic Bank -- http://www.capinordicbank.dk/-- provides
investment brokerage  services.  As of February 23, 2006,
Capinordic Bank is a subsidiary of Capinordic A/S.


EBH BANK: Accused of Share Manipulation by FSA Before Bankruptcy
----------------------------------------------------------------
Gelu Sulugiuc at Bloomberg News reports that EBH Bank A/S and
EBH-Fonden have been accused by the Danish FSA of manipulating EBH
Bank's share price before the bank's collapse in 2008.

According to Bloomberg, the FSA has reported EBN Bank, EBH-Fonden
as well as Dexia Bank Denmark to the police in connection with
"illegal" purchases of EBH Bank shares amounting to DKK300 million
(US$54 million) "to prop up the share price."

Selskabet af 27. november 2008 a/s (formerly ebh bank a/s) is a
Denmark-based company.  On December 1, 2008, the Danish Financial
Supervisory Authority gave its final approval of the conditional
transfer agreement whereby all of the assets and liabilities --

capital -- of Selskabet af 27. november 2008 a/s are to be
transferred to EBH Bank A/S, formerly Bankaktieselskabet af 21.

is to wind up the Company after the sale of its banking business
under the conditional agreement entered into between the Company
and Afviklingsselskabet til Sikring af Finansiel Stabilitet A/S.

HYPO REAL ESTATE: Net Loss Narrows to EUR2.24 Billion in 2009
-------------------------------------------------------------
Oliver Suess at Bloomberg News reports that Hypo Real Estate
Holding AG's net loss in 2009 narrowed to EUR2.24 billion (US$3
billion) from EUR5.46 billion a year earlier.

According to Bloomberg, the bank reported a full-year loss as it
set aside more money for risky loans and on costs for its
government-led bailout.  The bank is wholly owned by the German
government's Soffin bank-rescue fund.

Bloomberg relates Hypo Real Estate said the bank set aside EUR2.09
billion in provisions for doubtful loans in 2009, compared with
EUR1.66 billion a year earlier, and paid EUR741 million for
guarantees in connection with liquidity support provided by Soffin
and the German government.  The bank reduced its balance sheet by
14% to EUR359.7 billion last year, Bloomberg notes.

"In 2010, we intend to further reduce the losses compared with
2009," Bloomberg quoted Hypo Real Estate Chief Risk Officer
Manuela Better as saying in Friday's statement.

views" with the bank's owner.

The bank is wholly owned by the German government's Soffin bank-
rescue fund, Bloomberg notes.

According to Bloomberg, management board member and Chief Risk
Officer Manuela Better has taken over his responsibilities until
further notice.

Bloomberg relates Hypo Real Estate Supervisory Board Chairman
Bernd Thiemann said that at a press conference in Munich on
Friday, Mr. Wieandt and Soffin couldn't agree on management pay as
the bank's government-owner "had to treat a publicly sensible
topic such as manager bonuses with special care".  Mr. Thiemann,
as cited by Bloomberg, said Mr. Wieandt and Soffin also disagreed
on strategic questions, such as primarily using capital to pay
back government aid or to grow the business.

INDEPENDENT NEWS: Completes Sale of Newspaper Titles to Lebedev
---------------------------------------------------------------
Esther Bintliff and Ben Fenton at The Financial Times report that
the sale of The Independent newspaper to Alexander Lebedev was
completed on Thursday, for a nominal fee of GBP1.

According to the FT, Independent News & Media, the Dublin-based
owner of The Independent and its Sunday sister title, was
determined to unload the two newspapers, which lose about GBP1
million a month.

The FT relates two people familiar with the business said it could
have cost INM between GBP28 million and GBP40 million to close the
two UK titles, because of long-term deals for printing and other
obligations.

The FT says talks with Mr. Lebedev have been protracted and INM
had to make substantial concessions, including a promise to pay
the former KGB lieutenant-colonel GBP9.25 million over the next 10
months.  The FT notes INM said this payment was "in exchange" for
Independent Print Limited, Mr. Lebedev's company, assuming "all
future trading liabilities and obligations".  However, INM, which
was advised by Nicholas Shott of Lazards, had guaranteed a 12-year
printing contract with Trinity Mirror, which had proved one of the
sticking points, the FT states.  Mr. Lebedev's company has signed
a five-year contract with Trinity Mirror, leaving INM to take on a
contingent liability beyond that point, the FT discloses.

                       Debt-For-Equity Swap

Citing the Financial Times, the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe
on Nov. 12, 2009, reported INM secured approval of a proposed
debt-for-equity swap refinancing from bondholders.  The FT
disclosed the plan involves the exchange of EUR123 million (US$184
million, GBP110 million) of bonds for a 46% stake in the new
company.  According to the FT, under the plan approved by
bondholders, existing IN&M shareholders would be diluted to around
52%.

MURRAY O'LAOIRE: In Liquidation; 127 Jobs Affected
--------------------------------------------------
Paul Melia at Irish Independent reports that Murray O'Laoire
Architects has gone into liquidation, resulting in the loss of 127
jobs.  According to Irish Independent, the company blamed problems
getting paid and the slowdown in the construction sector.

Irish Independent relates in a statement Friday the company
confirmed it would cease trading because of difficulties getting
paid.

Formed in 1979 by Hugh Murray and Sean O'Laoire, Murray O'Laoire
had offices in Dublin, Cork and Limerick and was one of the
biggest firms in the country, according to Irish Independent.


ONSIDE LTD: Creditors' Meeting to Wind Up Business Set for April 8
------------------------------------------------------------------
Laura Noonan at Irish Independent reports that Onside Ltd., is to
be wound up at a creditors' meeting on April 8.  According to
Irish Independent, a leading liquidator has already been
approached ahead of the creditors' meeting.

Onside Ltd., the company behind teenage fashion chain No Name.
Irish Independent notes the most recent accounts for Onside put
average staff numbers at 75 for the year ended January 2009, down
from 88 the previous year.  Gross profits for the most recent year
accounted for came in at almost EUR4.3 million, but Onside still
ended up marginally in the red after tax and interest bills, Irish
Independent discloses.

Founded in 1994, No Name initially traded from just one store in
Henry Street.  The portfolio has since grown to 15 outlets dotted
across Dublin, Limerick, Louth, Waterford, Cork, Wexford and
Carlow, according to Irish Independent.


RESIDENCE MEMBERS CLUB: Judge Reserved Judgment on Examiner Fees
----------------------------------------------------------------
Mary Carolan at The Irish Times reports that the High Court's
Mr. Justice Kelly has reserved judgment on whether to approve fees
sought by an examiner who investigated the viability of the
insolvent Dublin "Residence" private members club.

According to the report, examiner Jim Stafford's fees were based
on an hourly charge of some EUR425.

The report recalls Mr. Justice Kelly queried whether a bill of
more than EUR111,000 made up of EUR61,857 examinership costs and
EUR50,000 legal costs -- related to three court appearances -- was
acceptable in this economic climate.

The report relates the judge was provided Friday with further
documents outlining the basis of the charges and heard legal
submissions.

Brian Kennedy, who is representing Mr. Stafford, of Friel Stafford
Corporate Recovery, said the EUR425 an hour fee was fixed three
years ago and was still accepted, the report notes.

Mr. Stafford had rounded the number of hours worked in the
Residence examinership, 60 hours, down to 56 which effectively
left a fee of EUR396 per hour and had incurred significant
overheads as detailed in documents, the report states.  The
counsel said Mr. Stafford does a certain amount of unpaid work and
was not receiving a EUR425 per hour fee for every hour in the
working week, the report discloses.

Citing The Irish Times, the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe
reported on Jan. 22, 2010, that Zurich Bank appointed a receiver
to the club after the High Court refused to extend it court
protection.  The Irish Times disclosed the bank is owed EUR2.3
million secured on charges over the club premises, insurance
policies and personal guarantees of brothers Christian and
Simon Stokes, the club's former owners.  The club racked up
liabilities of more than EUR4 million, according to the Irish
Times.

Residence -- http://www.residence.ie/-- is a modern members club
for men and women.  The club is situated at number 41 St.
Stephen's Green, Dublin 2, in a listed building dating back to the
1700's.

SANTANDER CONSUMER: Moody's Withdraws 'D+' Bank Strength Rating
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has withdrawn all ratings of Santander
Consumer Bank SpA for business reasons.  This rating action does
not reflect a change in the bank's creditworthiness.  Santander
Consumer Bank had no rated debt outstanding at the time of the
withdrawal.

These ratings of Santander Consumer Bank were withdrawn:

  -- Long-term deposit ratings of Baa1 (negative outlook);

  -- Short-term deposit ratings of Prime-2;

  -- Bank financial strength rating (BFSR) of D+ (negative
     outlook);

  -- Long-term senior unsecured MTN rating of Baa1;

  -- Long-term subordinate MTN rating of Baa2;

  -- Long-term junior subordinate MTN rating of Baa3.

Moody's last rating action on Santander Consumer Bank was in
September 2009 when Moody's downgraded its BFSR to D+ from C,
while the long-term deposit rating was lowered to Baa1 from A1 and
the short-term deposit rating was downgraded to Prime-2 from
Prime-1.  The multi-notch downgrade of Santander Consumer Bank's
ratings was driven by Moody's expectation in the current operating
environment of further asset quality deterioration in the context
of the riskier consumer finance business compared to traditional
retail banking, leading to higher credit losses than previously
incorporated in the institution's ratings and straining its
profitability and already modest capitalization.  In addition, the
expectation of weaker revenue generation capacity should also
affect Santander Consumer Bank's profitability going forward.

Santander Consumer Bank is headquartered in Turin, Italy.  At
December 31, 2009, it had total assets of about EUR8 billion.


SEAT PAGINE: To Generate 40% of Revenue From Internet in 2012
-------------------------------------------------------------
Chiara Remondini and Jerrold Colten at Bloomberg News, citing
Italian daily La Stampa, report that Seat Pagine Gialle SpA Chief
Executive Officer Alberto Cappellini projected the company will
generate 40% of revenue from the Internet in 2012.

Seat Pagine Gialle SpA (PG IM) -- http://www.seat.it/-- is an
Italy-based company that operates multimedia platform for
assisting in the development of business contacts between users
and advertisers.  It is active in the sector of multimedia
profiled advertising, offering print-voice-online directories,
products for the Internet and for satellite and ortophotometric
navigation, and communication services such as one-to-one
marketing.  Its products include EuroPages, PgineBianche,
Tuttocitta and EuroCompass, among others.  Its activity is divided
into four divisions: Directories Italia, operating through, Seat
Pagine Gialle; Directories UK, through TDL Infomedia Ltd. and its
subsidiary Thomson Directories Ltd.; Directory Assistance, through
Telegate AG, Telegate Italia Srl, 11881 Nueva Informacion
Telefonica SAU, Telegate 118 000 Sarl, Telegate Media AG and
Prontoseat Srl, and Other Activitites division, through Consodata
SpA, Cipi SpA, Europages SA, Wer liefert was GmbH and Katalog
Yayin ve Tanitim Hizmetleri AS.

                           *     *     *

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Dec. 7,
2009, Moody's Investors Service downgraded the Corporate Family
Rating and the Probability of Default Rating of SEAT Pagine Gialle
SpA to B2 from B1.  At the same time, Moody's downgraded the
rating on the company's EUR1.3 billion 8% senior notes due 2014
issued by Lighthouse International Company SA to Caa1 from B3.
The outlook for the ratings is negative.  The negative outlook
reflects Moody's increased concerns, in light of the limited
visibility, regarding the company's ability to comfortably remain
in compliance with its senior credit facility covenants,
particularly to December 2010.


UNIONFIDI PIEMONTE: Fitch Cuts Issuer Default Rating to 'BB-'
-------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded Unionfidi Piemonte's Long-term Issuer
Default Rating to 'BB-' from 'BB'.  The Outlook on the Long-term
IDR is Negative.  UPI's Short-term IDR has been affirmed at 'B'.

The rating action reflects its continued scarce capitalization and
its operating losses in the past two years, combined with Fitch's
expectation that asset quality will deteriorate further.  Although
UPI's ratings also reflect its improved internal organization, low
market risk exposure and extensive use of counter guarantees from
third parties, recovery prospects for the domestic economy remain
weak.

Fitch expects problem guarantees to continue to increase and UPI's
cost of credit to rise, putting profitability, and, ultimately,
UPI's already low capital under pressure.  Despite a EUR14 million
capital injection during 2009, UPI's capitalization remains
scarce, having been eroded by net losses reported in 2008 and
9M09.  At end-September 2009 its core capital to total guarantees
and core capital plus loan credit impairment reserves ratios were
low at 1.93% and 4.73%, respectively.  For end-2009, the confidi
estimates a total regulatory capital ratio only just above the
minimum 6% regulatory requirement.  UPI expects to qualify as a
financial intermediary under Article 107 of the Italian Banking
Act in 2010, which would mean supervision from Banca d'Italia.

UPI is a regional confidi headquartered in Turin that provides
credit guarantees to small- and medium-sized companies.  It is
expanding its geographical coverage outside its home region of
Piedmont and cooperates with other regional confidi.

HALYK BANK: Assets Increase to KZT2.04 Trillion in February
-----------------------------------------------------------
Nariman Gizitdinov at Bloomberg News reports that Kazakhstan's
Financial Supervision Agency said Halyk Savings Bank surpassed
defaulted BTA Bank last month as the nation's second-largest
lender by assets.

Bloomberg relates the financial regulator said on its Web site
Halyk Savings increased its assets to KZT2.04 trillion (US$13.9
billion) in February from KZT1.96 trillion a year earlier, while
BTA Bank's assets dropped to KZT1.99 trillion through February
from KZT3.02 trillion a year earlier.

According to Bloomberg, the regulator said Almaty-based Halyk
Savings increased its profit to KZT2.14 billion as of March 1
compared with a loss of KZT6.12 billion a year earlier.  The
regulator uses preliminary, not consolidated data in accordance
with Kazakh standards, Bloomberg notes.

Kazakhstan-based Halyk Bank AO (Halyk National Savings Bank of
Kazakhstan JSC or Halyk Bank JSC) (KAS:HSBK) --
http://eng.halykbank.kz/-- offers banking services to private and
corporate clients.  Its services include cash-settlements, loans,
deposits, pensions, insurance, leasing, brokerage and asset
management, safe deposit boxes, American Express checks, debit and

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Jan. 26,
2010, Fitch Ratings revised Halyk Bank's Outlook to Stable from
Negative.  Fitch affirmed the bank's long-term foreign currency
IDR and Long-term local currency IDR at 'B+'.  It affirmed the
bank's Short-term foreign currency IDR and Short-term local
currency IDR at 'B'.  The bank's individual rating was affirmed at
'D/E'.

Fitch said 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).  According to Fitch, 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, Fitch
said.

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, according to Fitch.  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,
Fitch said.

SLS CAPITAL: Luxembourg Court Orders Liquidation
------------------------------------------------
Hannah Stodell at Money Marketing reports that the Luxembourg
District Court has ordered the liquidation and winding-up of SLS
Capital SA and Life Settlements Capital SA.  The report relates
Maitre Yann Baden of Baden and Baden has been appointed as
liquidator tasked with the responsibility of recovering any
remaining assets and pursuing any claims on behalf of the
companies or its creditors/investors.  There does not appear to be
any remaining assets, the report says, citing an update from Baden
and Baden Friday.

"As the situation of SLS and LSC is a complex one, the
liquidator's first duty must be to gather all available facts and
information while cooperating with judicial and criminal
authorities both in Luxembourg and abroad.  This process is
ongoing," the report quoted Baden and Baden as saying.

Baden and Baden has invited all investors and bondholders who have
not done so already to file their interest through its website,
the report notes.

The report recalls around 5,500 clients of Keydata invested GBP103
million in Luxembourg-incorporated SLS Capital through its secure
income bonds.  Administrator PricewaterhouseCoopers discovered
information last year that suggested underlying assets had been
liquidated and may have been misappropriated, the report recounts.

SLS Capital SA and Life Settlements Capital SA are companies owned
by David Elias.

BEST BRANDS: Moody's Withdraws 'Caa1' Corporate Family Rating
-------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has withdrawn all ratings of Best Brands
Corporation, including the Caa1 corporate family rating, following
the completion of the $510 million acquisition of Best Brands by
Dutch bakery supplier CSM NV (not rated by Moody's) and repayment
of all Best Brands' debt.

Moody's has taken these ratings actions:

* Corporate Family Rating, withdrawn, previously rated Caa1;

* Probability of Default Rating, withdrawn, previously rated
  Caa1;

* First lien revolving credit facility and term loan B --
  withdrawn, previously rated B3 (LGD3, 33%); and

* Second lien term loan C -- Withdrawn, previously rated Caa2
  (LGD5, 81%).

The last rating action on Best Brands was the October 13, 2009
upgrade of the corporate family rating to Caa1 from Caa3.

Headquartered in Minnetonka, Minnesota, Best Brands Corporation is
a manufacturer and distributor of specialty bakery products in the
U.S., specializing in frozen laminated dough, frozen baked cakes,
frozen muffins and bakery mixes, as well as other value-added
services sold to in-store bakeries and institutional baking
clients.


BEST BRANDS: S&P Withdraws 'B-' Corporate Credit Rating

DUTCH MBS: Moody's Assigns 'Ba1' Rating on Class E Notes
--------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service assigned definitive credit ratings to
these classes of Notes issued by Dutch MBS XV B.V.:

  -- Aaa to EUR182,100,000 Class A1 Mortgage-Backed Notes 2010
     due 2042

  -- Aaa to EUR530,600,000 Class A2 Mortgage-Backed Notes 2010
     due 2042

  -- Aa2 to EUR11,200,000 Class B Mortgage-Backed Notes 2010 due
     2042

  -- A1 to EUR10,450,000 Class C Mortgage-Backed Notes 2010 due
     2042

  -- Baa2 to EUR10,400,000 Class D Mortgage-Backed Notes 2010
     due 2042

  -- Ba1 to EUR1,500,000 Class E Mortgage-Backed Notes 2010 due
     2042

EUR3,750,000 Class F Notes 2010 due 2042 is not rated by Moody's.

The transaction represents the securitization of Dutch residential
mortgage loans originated or acquired by the subsidiaries of NIBC
Bank N.V. (Baa2/P-2).  The assets supporting the Notes are prime
mortgage loans secured by residential properties located in the
Netherlands and the security assignments closely follow the
security structure observed in other Dutch Residential Mortgage-
Backed transactions.  The portfolio will be serviced by NIBC Bank
N.V., who also arranged the transaction.

The non-amortizing reserve fund will be funded at 0.50 per cent of
the total class A, B, C, D and E notes outstanding at closing and
the total credit enhancement for the Aaa rated notes is 5.00 per
cent.  Apart from the reserve fund, the transaction benefits from
an excess margin of 50bps through the swap agreement.  The swap
counterparty is Cr‚dit Agricole CIB.

The expected portfolio loss of 0.6% and the MILAN Aaa required
credit enhancement of 5.4% serve as input parameters for Moody's
cash flow model and tranching model, which is based on a
probabilistic lognormal distribution as described in the report
"The Lognormal Method Applied to ABS Analysis", published in
September 2000.

Key drivers for the MILAN Aaa CE number, which is lower than in
other prime Dutch RMBS transactions, include the relatively low
portion of loans with LTfV above 100% (47.4% of the pool), limited
possibility for the seller to substitute new loans into the
subject structure, and relatively high seasoning of the
securitized pool (above five years on average).  The current
economic conditions in the Netherlands, with rising unemployment,
currently at 5.2% and forecast to increase to 7.9% in 2010, is
likely to drive delinquencies up in the short to medium term.
Additionally house prices have fallen by 3.4% from their peak in
2008 which could especially impact the proportion of loans with a
loan to foreclosure value of more than 100% (47.4% of the pool).
Nevertheless, given the historic performance in the Dutch market
and of the originator's precedent transactions (in which pools
with similar risk characteristics have been securitized); Moody's
believes the assumed expected loss is appropriate for this
transaction.  Another key characteristic of this transaction is
that approximately 31.5% of the portfolio is linked to life
insurance policies (life mortgage loans), which are exposed to the
risk of set-off if an insurance company should go bankrupt.  The
seller has provided loan-by-loan insurance company counterparty
data, whereby 52.6% of all insurance-linked products are linked to
the insurance policies provided by Allianz Nederland N.V, which is
not rated by Moody's.  Moody's has factored the rating of the
parent company, Allianz SE (Aa3), as a proxy to assess this risk,
and tested this with more stressful rating levels to measure the
impact on the ratings of the notes.

The V-Score for this transaction is Low/Medium, which is in line
with the V-Score assigned for the Dutch RMBS sector, in large part
because it is a standard Dutch prime RMBS structure for which
Moody's have over 10 years of historical performance data.  The
primary source of assumption uncertainty is the current
macroeconomic environment, in which property values are falling
and unemployment continues to rise.  To account for this
macroeconomic uncertainty, Moody's has increased the expected loss
assumption by almost 50% from 40bps in the previous transaction
(Dutch MBS XIV B.V.) to 60bps in the current transaction.  V-
Scores are a relative assessment of the quality of available
credit information and of the degree of dependence on various
assumptions used in determining the rating.  High variability in
key assumptions could expose a rating to more likelihood of rating
changes.  The V-Score has been assigned accordingly to the report
"V-Scores and Parameter Sensitivities in the Major EMEA RMBS
Sectors" published in April 2009.

The definitive ratings address the expected loss posed to
investors by the legal final maturity of the notes.  In Moody's
opinion, the structure allows for timely payment of interest and
ultimate payment of principal at par on or before the rated final
legal maturity date.  Moody's ratings address only the credit
risks associated with the transaction.  Other non-credit risks
have not been addressed, but may have a significant effect on
yield to investors.


LYONDELL CHEMICAL: Parent Prices US$2.275-Bil. Sr. Secured Notes
----------------------------------------------------------------

escrow until the approval of the Plan of Reorganization.  The net
proceeds from the sale of the notes, together with borrowings
under the term loan and a new European securitization facility and
proceeds from a $2,800 million rights offering, will be used upon
emergence from bankruptcy to repay and replace certain existing
debt, including debtor-in-possession credit facilities and an
existing European securitization facility and to make certain
related payments.

senior secured obligations of Lyondell Chemical and will be
guaranteed by LyondellBasell Industries N.V. and, subject to
certain exceptions, substantially all wholly owned U.S. restricted
subsidiaries of LyondellBasell Industries N.V.

exemption from the registration requirements.  The notes are
offered only to "qualified institutional buyers" in accordance
with Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-"U.S. persons"
in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

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

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.

ISTRABENZ GROUP: Hires BNP Paribas to Handle Droga Kolinska Sale
----------------------------------------------------------------
Boris Cerni at Bloomberg News reports that Istrabenz Group d.d.
hired BNP Paribas SA to handle the sale of its food-making unit as
it sells assets to repay debt.

According to Bloomberg, the company said in a statement to the
Ljubljana stock exchange Friday that investors are being asked to
submit non-binding bids for Droga Kolinska d.d. by the end of
April.  Istrabenz will take the final decision on the sale after
it studies the offers, Bloomberg says citing the statement.

Bloomberg recalls Istrabenz declared insolvency in 2009 and went
into receivership this year after it struggled to repay debt
accumulated before the global financial crisis.  The company is
selling assets to repay loans to 19 banks, including the two of
Slovenia's largest lenders Nova Ljubljanska Banka d.d. and Nova
Kreditna Banka Maribor d.d., Bloomberg notes.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on March 11,
2010, Bloomberg News said Istrabenz forecasts net income of
EUR44.5 million (US$60.3 million) this year as it aims to sell
assets valued at EUR100 million.  Bloomberg disclosed Istrabenz on
March 9 said in a statement to the Ljubljana stock exchange the
debt to the banks will be lowered by EUR85 million in 2010 with
Istrabenz still owing EUR364 million by the end of the year.
Istrabenz said the divestiture was approved by creditor banks,
Bloomberg noted.

EUR300 million and due in December 2051:

  -- EUR45 million Class A: 'AAA'; Outlook Stable; Loss Severity
     'LS-1'

  -- EUR179 million Class A(G): 'AAA'; Outlook Stable; Loss
     Severity 'LS-1'

  -- EUR27.5 million Class B: 'A'; Outlook Stable; Loss Severity
     'LS-3'

  -- EUR27.5 million Class C: 'BBB'; Outlook Stable; Loss Severity
     'LS-3'

  -- EUR21 million Class D: 'B'; Outlook Stable; Loss Severity

The transaction is a cash flow securitization of a EUR300 million
static pool of secured and unsecured loans granted by Cajamar Caja
Rural, Sociedad Cooperativa de Credito (Cajamar, rated
'A'/Negative/'F1'), a Spanish savings bank, to small- and medium-
sized Spanish enterprises for the purpose of financing business
activity and new investments.

The ratings are based on the quality of the collateral, the
underwriting and servicing of the loans, available credit
enhancement, the characteristics and integrity of the
transaction's legal and financial structure and Ahorro y
Titulizacion, SGFT, S.A.'s (the Sociedad Gestora) administrative
capabilities.  The ratings incorporate Fitch's view of Spanish SME
credit risk.  (For further information, please see the criteria
report entitled "Rating Criteria for European Granular Corporate
Balance-Sheet Securitizations (SME CLOs)", dated 23 July 2009,
which is available on www.fitchratings.com)

Fitch did not take into account the guarantee from the Autonomous
Community of Andalusia (Andalusia, rated 'AA'/Negative/'F1+') with
respect to the A2(G) notes in assigning a 'AAA' rating.  The
guarantee provides for Andalusia to cover the timely payment of
interest and principal of this note class.

The ratings address the payment of interest on the notes according
to the terms and conditions of the documentation, subject to a
deferral trigger for the classes B, C and D, and the repayment of
principal by legal maturity in December 2051.

The underlying portfolio consists of a granular pool of 3,467
loans to SMEs, with the top 10 obligors representing 9.2% of the
collateral value.  Of the collateral value 60% is concentrated in
Cajamar's home region of Andalucia and 61.7% of the pool volume
consists of mortgages secured on commercial and residential
properties.

AyT ANDALUCIA FTEMPRESA CAJAMAR, Fondo de Titulizacion de Activos
is the fourth single-seller SME securitization transaction
originated by Cajamar and rated by Fitch.  The issuer is legally
represented and managed by Ahorro y Titulizacion, SGFT, S.A., a
special-purpose management company with limited liability
incorporated under the laws of Spain.

BIRMINGHAM DEVELOPMENT: Lloyds Appoints PwC as Administrators
-------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel Thomas at The Financial Times reports that Lloyds Banking
Group on Friday appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers as administrators
for Birmingham Development Company.  The company's construction
subsidiary, BuildAbility, has also gone into administration, the
FT notes.

The FT relates the company was behind the construction of the
Cube, a mixed-use building designed by Ken Shuttleworth's Make
Architects that included residential, office, retail, and
restaurant and hotel space in Birmingham.

According to the FT, the administrators have been holding
discussions with the principal stakeholders behind the Cube on how
to complete the development, but said that they "do not intend to
market the development in its current state".

Other assets developed by the Birmingham Development Company --
such as the Mailbox in Birmingham -- are held in different
companies and are unaffected, the FT states.


BRITISH AIRWAYS: No Sign of Deal with Cabin Crew Over Pay Row
-------------------------------------------------------------
Steve Rothwell at Bloomberg News reports that British Airways Plc
cabin crew members were in the third day of a four-day strike with
no sign of a deal being reached in the dispute over pay and
staffing levels.

According to Bloomberg, BA estimates about 60,000 customers will
be prevented from flying with the airline during the walkout,
which began March 27 and runs through tomorrow, March 30.
Bloomberg says cancellations will wipe out 30% of long-haul
services from London's Heathrow airport.

Bloomberg relates the latest strike follows a three-day walkout by
BA's 12,000 cabin crew that ended on March 22.  The airline said
the walkout cost GBP21 million (US$31 million), Bloomberg notes.
Bloomberg recalls BA Chief Executive Officer Willie Walsh last met
with Unite union leader Tony Woodley on March 19 and efforts by
arbiters to bring the men together for fresh talks have failed.

                               Talks

Bloomberg recounts Rob Holdsworth, a spokesman for the umbrella
group for U.K. unions, said in an interview March 26 Brendan
Barber, general secretary of the Trades Union Congress, which
facilitated earlier talks, is still talking with both sides,
though "things seem to be getting worse rather than better."

According to Bloomberg, Unite has reiterated that any settlement
must include the restoration of travel perks that Mr. Walsh said
last week had been forfeited by all striking workers, a move that
may make work journeys unviable for 1,500 flight attendants
employed in the U.K. but resident abroad.  The CEO has also
withdrawn a previous pay offer, saying any proposal must now be
modified to account for the cost of the walkout, Bloomberg states.

services.  The Company operates international scheduled airline
route networks together with its codeshare and franchise partners,
and flies to more than 300 destinations worldwide.  During the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 (fiscal 2009), the Company
carried more than 33 million passengers.  It carried 777,000 tons
of cargo to destinations in Europe, the Americas and throughout
the world.  In July 2008, the Company's subsidiary, BA European

L'Avion.

                           *     *     *

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Nov. 12,
2009, Moody's Investors Service placed the Ba3 Corporate Family
and Probability of Default Ratings of British Airways plc and the
senior unsecured and subordinate ratings of B1 and B2 under review
for possible downgrade.  Moody's said the rating action reflects
the continued weakening in profitability in the first half of
FY2010 (to September 2009), with an operating loss of GBP111
million reported versus a profit of GBP140 million a year earlier
(post restructuring charges), and Moody's view that losses in
FY2010 will likely be higher than in FY2009.  This comes in spite
of lower operating costs, notably for fuel, as demand in the
industry remains very depressed, while the company has
successfully reduced its employee and selling costs.  Reported net
debt remained constant during the period, partly benefiting from a
positive exchange rate impact, although Moody's debt metrics also
incorporate the full value of the convertible notes issued in
August 2009.


BRITISH AIRWAYS: Expands Codeshare Partnership with Japan Air
-------------------------------------------------------------
Japan Airlines Corp. and British Airways, both members of leading
quality airline alliance oneworld, have reached an agreement to
expand their codeshare partnership.  Beginning March 28, 2010, JAL
will codeshare with BA on nine new routes and from April 28, 2010,
four new routes, all in the European region.  Including current
codeshare flights within the United Kingdom and within Europe, the
total number of codeshare flights between the two airlines will be
23, broadening JAL's Europe network to cover 36 cities with 54
routes.

JAL and BA first started to codeshare in February, 2004.  At
present, "JL" indicators are placed on BA-operated flights plying
ten routes from London (Heathrow) to such destinations as
Manchester and Vienna among others.  Of the latest 13 routes,
Brussels -- the capital of Belgium, and Geneva in Switzerland are
cities well-known to Japanese travelers and that will be brand new
additions to JAL's network while Athens gets placed back on the
map after a 20 year absence since the airline suspended operations
there in 1990.

With this expansion, JAL can now provide more convenience to
customers traveling to popular tourist destinations like Madrid
and Barcelona in Spain, to business cities in Germany like Berlin
and Munich, as well as several other cities in Northern Europe.

oneworld partners Japan Airlines and British Airways are in
discussions to further augment their bilateral partnership beyond
codeshare arrangements, details of which will be announced as soon
as developments are finalized.  Customers of the alliance-partners
can be certain to look forward to exciting new products offered in
the near future.

Limited (trading as OpenSkies), acquired the French airline,
L'Avion.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Nov. 12,
2009, Moody's Investors Service placed the Ba3 Corporate Family
and Probability of Default Ratings of British Airways plc and the
senior unsecured and subordinate ratings of B1 and B2 under review
for possible downgrade.  Moody's said the rating action reflects
the continued weakening in profitability in the first half of
FY2010 (to September 2009), with an operating loss of GBP111
million reported versus a profit of GBP140 million a year earlier
(post restructuring charges), and Moody's view that losses in
FY2010 will likely be higher than in FY2009.  This comes in spite
of lower operating costs, notably for fuel, as demand in the
industry remains very depressed, while the company has
successfully reduced its employee and selling costs.  Reported net
debt remained constant during the period, partly benefiting from a
positive exchange rate impact, although Moody's debt metrics also
incorporate the full value of the convertible notes issued in
August 2009.


CORSAIR NO 4: Moody's Junks Rating on US$43 Mil. Notes From Ba1
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has taken these rating actions on notes
issued by Corsair (Jersey) No. 4 Limited, a CDO square referencing
seven static portfolios of corporate entities.

Issuer: Corsair (Jersey) No. 4 Limited - Series 5

  -- US$43,000,000 Cross-Contingent Step-down Portfolio Credit-
     Linked Notes due 2024, Downgraded to Caa1; previously on
     March 6, 2009 Downgraded to Ba1

Moody's explained that the rating action taken is the result of
i) the deterioration of the credit quality of the reference
portfolio and ii) Moody's views on the expected maturity of the
transaction.

The credit deterioration of the portfolio is reflected by several
factors.  The 10 year weighted average rating factor("WARF") of
the inner CDO portfolios currently ranges between 674 and 917,
equivalent to an average rating of Ba1.  In the last rating
action, the portfolio WARF for each inner CDO ranged between 533
and 725, equivalent to average rating of Baa3 and Ba1.  The
Insurance, Telecommunications and Banking industry sectors are the
most represented in the inner portfolios.  Since the last rating
action in March 2009, several corporate entities experienced
multi-notch rating downgrades, including Toppan Printing Co. Ltd
and Deutsche Postbank AG.  In addition, the transaction is exposed
to reference entities that suffered credit events since last
rating action date, in particular Thomson SA, CIT Group Inc.,
Syncora Guarantee Inc. and Aiful Corporation.  These entities are
referenced in several inner CDOs and therefore have a significant
impact on the expected loss of the outer CDO tranche.

Moody's explained that notwithstanding the legal final maturity of
the notes being in 2024, note holders have a put option to redeem
their notes in 2014 at the then current notional amount.  In the
event note holders choose not to exercise the option in 2014, the
note coupon will drop to US$-Libor minus 20 bps from US$-Libor
plus 50 bps.  The rating action also reflects a low likelihood of
such option not being exercised and is therefore based on the
expected loss to the optional redemption date of 2014 rather than
to the legal final maturity of 2024.  The impact of such reduced
expected maturity is approximately 3 notches.


HIGHLAND AIRWAYS: In Administration; Up to 100 Jobs At Risk
-----------------------------------------------------------
Andrew Bolger at The Financial Times reports that Highland Airways
has been placed in administration, putting at risk up to 100 jobs.
The FT relates the company ceased operations on Wednesday evening
after its directors requested the appointment of administrators.

According to the FT, Highland, which was established in 1991 as
Air Alba, had experienced a period of difficult trading that was
further exacerbated by the recent bad weather, which grounded the
fleet for a significant period, and the loss of three contracted
routes in the last six months of trading.

The FT notes Bruce Cartwright of PwC, joint administrator, said
the directors had been in discussion with a number of parties, but
had concluded that maintaining operations while introducing a new
investor was no longer feasible.

Highland Airways -- http://www.highlandairways.co.uk/-- was an
airline based in Inverness, Scotland.  The airline operated
passenger and freight charters as well as scheduled services from
its main base at Inverness Airport.  Other services included
newspaper distribution to the northern and Western Isles and,
until recently, charter services for corporate clients.


JARVIS PLC: Faces Administration After Lender Talks Fail
--------------------------------------------------------
The Associated Press reports that Jarvis PLC said Thursday that it
is going into administration, a form of bankruptcy protection,
after failing to reach agreements with lenders to support its
operations.

According to the report, Jarvis said it had been hit by cutbacks
in railway maintenance work.

The report relates trading in Jarvis shares was suspended
Wednesday on the London Stock Exchange.

"Following negotiations with the company's secured lenders, it has
today become clear that sufficient support will not be extended to
the company to enable it to continue trading as a going concern,"
the report quoted Jarvis as saying in an announcement to the Stock
Exchange.

Jarvis plc -- http://www.jarvisplc.com/-- is a United Kingdom-
based company engaged in rail infrastructure renewal and
enhancement, plant hire, freight and facilities management.  The
Company is organized into three segments: Rail, Plant and
Accommodation Services.  Rail segment provides rail infrastructure
works to the United Kingdom rail industry, including rail renewal,
major track development, electrical and signaling services.  Plant
segment provides on-track machinery, small plant equipment and
manages a fleet of purpose-built vehicles for the rail and other
industries; provides bulk haulage and container freight services.
Accommodation Services segment undertakes facilities management
operations.  Jarvis Rail Limited (Jarvis Rail) is the rail
engineering arm of the business, which undertakes rail enhancement
projects, signaling and telecommunications, overhead line and
track renewals nationwide.


KEITH EVANS: In Administration; Harris Lipman On Board
------------------------------------------------------
Cabinet Maker reports that Keith Evans Contract Furnishers Ltd.
has been put into administration.  According to the report, John
Cullen and Freddy Khalastchi of Harris Lipman have been appointed
as administrators of the company.

The report recalls the company revealed it made around 48
redundancies at the beginning of February, after admitting its
intentions to appoint administrators.

Keith Evans Contract Furnishers Ltd. is a furniture manufacturer
based in Bridgend, Wales.


MATHON FINANCE: In Administration; Assets Sold to Juniper
---------------------------------------------------------
Natalie Martin at Mortgage Strategy reports that Mathon Finance
has gone into administration.  The report relates Bryan Jackson
and Anne Buchanan, of accountants and business advisers PKF, were
appointed joint administrators of Mathon Limited on February 17,
2010.

"The reasons for the failure of Mathon are fairly obvious given
the enormous decline in commercial property values over the last
three years in its two key markets in the UK and Ireland.  The
firm had previously operated successfully for several years but
the drop in values was too great to sustain and consequently made
the company unable to continue," the report quotes Mr. Jackson as
saying.

According to the report, the firm has entered into an agreement to
assign its loan book enabling it to discharge all secured debt.
The report says if the company had been placed into liquidation
then this could have destabilized the value of the loan book and
would not have been in the interest of all creditors.

The report relates the remaining business and assets of the
company were sold to Juniper Property Finance Company Limited by
the administrators immediately following their appointment which
also secured the jobs of the remaining employees.  As a result of
these transactions the administrators received sufficient funds to
enable all creditors to be paid in full with statutory interest,
the report notes.

Mathon Finance was established in 2004 as an asset based lending
company in the commercial property sector providing short term
finance, according to Mortgage Strategy.


NORTEL NETWORKS: Wins OK for LinkLaters as U.K. Counsel
-------------------------------------------------------
Nortel Networks Inc. and its affiliated debtors obtained approval
from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court to employ Linklaters LLP as their
U.K. counsel, effective January 26, 2010.

The Debtors tapped the services of Linklaters in light of the
proofs of claim that were filed against NNI and some of its
affiliates by the Board of the Pension Protection Fund.

NNUK Pension Trust serves as trustee of the pension scheme of
Nortel Networks UK Ltd. while the PPF Board manages U.K.'s
Pension Protection Fund.

The amount of claim asserted by the Pension Trustee and the PPF
Board has not yet been determined.  It is, however, believed to
be over GBP2.1 billion, which is the estimated NNUK's pension
scheme deficit as of January 13, 2009.

"Linklaters' resources and capabilities are crucial to the multi-
jurisdictional issues confronting the Debtors' success including
asserted potential pension obligations under U.K. law," says the
Debtors' counsel, Ann Cordo, Esq., at Morris Nichols Arsht &
Tunnell LLP, in Wilmington, Delaware.

"The services of Linklaters are necessary and essential to enable
the Debtors to defend the claims of the trustee and the PPF," Ms.
Cordo says in court papers.

As the Debtors' U.K. counsel, Linklaters will be tasked to
provide advice to the Debtors about U.K. law and other legal
services in connection with the alleged pension obligations and
the proofs of claim filed by the Pension Trustee and the PPF.

Linklaters will be paid for its services on an hourly basis and
will also be reimbursed of its necessary and reasonable expenses.
The firm's hourly rates are:

      Partners                  GBP650
      Counsel                   GBP600
      Managing Associates       GBP550
      Associates                GBP465
      Trainee Solicitors        GBP280
      Paralegals                GBP125

The Debtors will also be charged of fees and expenses of Paul
Newman QC and James Walmsley of Wilberforce Chambers, the
barristers instructed by Linklaters to represent NNI and Nortel
Networks (CALA) Inc. in their Chapter 11 cases or to defend their
rights under U.K. law.  The hourly rates of Messrs. Newman and
Walmsley are GBP500 and GBP175, respectively.

In a declaration filed with the Court, Mark Blyth, Esq., a
partner at Linklaters, assures the Court that his firm does not
have interests adverse to the interest of the Debtors or their
creditors.  He asserts that Linklaters is a "disinterested
person" as the term is defined under Section 101(14) of the
Bankruptcy Code.

ROYAL BANK: S&P Downgrades Ratings on Tier 1 Securities to 'C'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it lowered its
ratings on "may pay" Tier 1 securities issued or guaranteed by The
Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC (A/Stable/A-1) to 'C' from 'CC'.
At the same time, the rating on the RBSG-related security issued
by Argon Capital PLC was similarly lowered to 'C' from 'CC'.  The
counterparty credit ratings and stand-alone credit profiles of
RBSG and subsidiaries, and the ratings on other debt securities
issued by these entities, are unaffected.

These rating actions follow the statement by RBSG regarding a
planned liability management exercise.  RBSG announced that it
will offer to exchange existing Upper Tier 2 securities into
senior unsecured notes, and to buy back existing Tier 1 securities
for cash.  The prices to be offered by RBSG range between 55% and
100% of par.  The primary rationale for the offers is to generate
core Tier 1 capital, and RBSG expects its core Tier 1 ratio to
increase by 30 basis points (bps), based on the projected post-tax
gain from the offers and RBSG's proportional capital position at
year-end 2009.  RBSG expects its Tier 1 ratio to decline modestly
as a result of the offers.

The downgrade of the "may pay" Tier 1 securities issued or
guaranteed by RBSG reflects S&P's view that the tender offer for
these securities is a "distressed exchange" under its criteria.
This conclusion reflects two main factors.  First, S&P note that
the holders would receive a material discount to par if they
choose to participate in the tender offer.  Second, coupons on the
"may pay" securities are due to be deferred during a two-year
period beginning no later than April 30, 2010, and S&P consider
that the tender offer for these issues would essentially be
equivalent to a payment deferral from S&P's rating perspective.

S&P categorizes the exchange offer for the Upper Tier 2 securities
and the tender offer for the "must pay" Tier 1 securities as an
"opportunistic exchange" under its criteria.  In S&P's view, the
offers do not affect the probability of continued coupon payments
on these securities, and S&P would still see payment deferral as
relatively unlikely.  As a result, the ratings on the Upper Tier 2
securities and the "must pay" Tier 1 securities are unaffected.

The counterparty credit ratings and stand-alone credit profiles of
RBSG and subsidiaries are unaffected because, while S&P sees the
core capital generated through the offers as a net positive
development, this does not in itself materially change its view of
the group's credit profile.

                            *********

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.
