BASIS YIELD: Goldman Sachs Seeks to Toss US$1.6 Billion Suit
------------------------------------------------------------
Bankruptcy Law360 reports that Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has argued
that Basis Yield Alpha Fund can't bring its US$1.6 billion suit in
the U.S. alleging Goldman's sale of subprime mortgage-backed
securities drove the Australian hedge fund into insolvency because
the transaction occurred in Australia.
According to Law360, the investment bank pressed the U.S. District
Court for the Southern District of New York on Wednesday to toss
the suit, alleging that Basis executed the transaction in
Australia.

COMPANIA MINERA: Two Owners Begin Bankruptcy Proceedings
--------------------------------------------------------
Two owners of Compania Minera San Esteban Primera, Marcelo Kemeny
and Alejandro Bohn, asked the 17th Civil Court of Santiago to
convene a meeting of creditors to determine the company's
viability, The Santiago Times reports. The report relates that
this is a process that could lead to its eventual bankruptcy, with
the appointment of an expert facilitator to deal with the fact
that the company is unable to meet its immediate commitments.
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
August 30, 2010, UPI said that Compania Minera San Esteban Primera
warned it was considering filing for bankruptcy and might not be
able to pay salaries owed to the 33 trapped miners in the
company's mine when they emerge, let alone damages from impending
lawsuits from one of the miners' family.
According to The Times, Chile Mining Minister Laurence Golborne
said that the government is concerned not just for the 33 trapped
miners, but also for the other workers who have lost their jobs
after the accident: "We are also concerned of the 250 workers who
are now in a situation of job insecurity."
The report notes that the owners started the bankruptcy process
with papers filed by their attorney Jorge Aguilar the same day
they testified to a Chamber of Deputies investigation committee.
The report relates Mr. Aguilar said that the business is US$20
million in debt, while its assets total US$10 million.
The Times says that among the current obligations that San Esteban
does not feel it can handle are the salaries of the miners, those
both stuck in the mine and out of the mine, as well as a portion
of the rescue budget, which is estimated at more than US$11
million.
Meanwhile, the report discloses that union representative Evelyn
Olmos called for the government to front the money so that the
company can pay overdue wages. However, the report relates, the
government said that the nation's labor laws clearly prohibit the
government paying for the bad debt of private businesses.
Back wages are due not only to the 33 miners trapped at the bottom
of the San Jose mine, but also to another 100 workers at the same
mine and 170 more company employees, the report adds.
About Compania Minera
Compania Minera San Esteban Primera is engaged in the production
of both copper and gold concentrates.

EM FALCON: Fitch Downgrades Ratings on Variable Notes to 'BB-'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded the notes issued by EM Falcon Limited
Series 2008-1:
-- COP49,000,000,000 variable rate notes to 'BB-sf' from 'Asf';
Outlook Stable.
The downgrade is a result of Fitch's implementation of its
'Criteria for Rating Caps in Global Structured Finance
Transactions' dated June 23, 2010. This criteria states that in
cases where the terms and conditions specify the reduction of
interest subject to certain events, Fitch will depart from the
principle of rating to the documents and will also consider the
likelihood of a conditional event occurring in combination with
other structural arrangements. Fitch considers the reduction of
interest coupon from 15.67% to 0.10% upon the occurrence of a
credit event by the Republic of Colombia (rated 'BB+', with a
Stable Outlook by Fitch) a conditional event. Therefore, Fitch's
current rating on the notes addresses the payment of a 15.67%
annual coupon and return of principal.
At closing, the issuance proceeds from the notes were used to
purchase US Dollar (US$) 38,113,000 of the US$ 6.625% notes due
April 1, 2018, issued by Morgan Stanley (the collateral, rated
'A', with a Stable Outlook [ISIN: US6174466Q77]). Additionally,
the issuer entered into an interest rate/cross currency swap with
the swap counterparty, Morgan Stanley Capital Services (MSCS),
which is guaranteed by Morgan Stanley (rated 'A/F1', with a Stable
Outlook). Through the swap, the issuer forwards all US$ payments
of interest and principal from the collateral to MSCS in exchange
for the agreed upon variable interest and ultimate principal
amounts, as described below. Also through the swap, the interest
paid to the issuer is variable and is linked to the credit risk of
the reference entity, the Republic of Colombia. Upon a credit
event of Colombia, principal redemption amounts
(COP49,000,000,000) are guaranteed by MSCS; however, the interest
rate paid to the noteholders (also paid by MSCS) will be reduced
from 15.67% per annum to 0.10% per annum, as per the governing
documents.
Payments of interest and principal are based on the COP Fixed Rate
Payer Calculation Amount (COP49,000,000,000), converted into US$
at the then-prevailing value of the COP/US$ exchange rate. If an
Early Redemption Event occurs, as defined in the governing
documents, investors may be exposed to the market value risk of
the collateral due to its liquidation prior to maturity, and also
foreign exchange risk upon conversion of the US$-based collateral
proceeds into COP. In addition, a swap termination payment could
be due from the issuer to the swap counterparty upon early
redemption.
Fitch applied its 'Global Rating Criteria for Single- and Multi-
Name Credit-Linked Notes' for this review and based its rating on
the two-risk CLN matrix with restructuring. The highest risk-
presenting entity (Republic of Colombia) is considered the
'weakest link', as it contributes the most risk to the transaction
in terms of probability of default. The swap counterparty
guarantor and the collateral issuer are the same (Morgan Stanley),
and therefore treated as one risk presenting entity.

DIGICEL GROUP: LIME Undaunted by Recent Court Ruling
----------------------------------------------------
Cable and Wireless's LIME said it is undaunted by a recent court
ruling in its ongoing war with Digicel Group, RadioJamaica
reports.
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
September 6, 2010, RadioJamaica said that Supreme Court Judge
Justice Ingrid Mangatal dismissed an application by LIME for an
interlocutory injunction barring Digicel Group from offering
cheaper rates to its landline customers. According to the report,
Digicel Group began offering landline services to its customers,
more than a year ago. However, the report related, LIME filed a
lawsuit in October last year, accusing Digicel Group of abusing
its dominant position. The report noted that LIME also accused
Digicel Group of breaching the Fair Competition and
Telecommunications Act. The report added that LIME claims the
rates offered should be on par and that Digicel Group was in
breach of the law.
According to the report, LIME said that the court ruling in no way
affects the substantive case against Digicel Group. The report
relates Camile Facey, LIME's Regional Vice President for Legal,
Regulatory & Corporate Affairs, said that the company looks
forward to the hearing of a lawsuit filed to protect its landline
customers from Digicel Group's anti-competitive pricing.
LIME is seeking to recover JM$100 million in damages which it
claims was lost because of Digicel Group's pricing structure, the
report adds.

INFU TRUST: S&P Puts 'BB' Rating on US$180 Mil. Notes
-----------------------------------------------------
In this press release, published earlier, the name of the
Analytical Manager, Emerging Markets Structured Finance, was
incorrect. A corrected version follows:
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services placed its 'BB (sf)' ratings on
Infu Trust's US$180 million 7.135% fixed-rate notes series 2005
due December 2013 and Mexican Unidades De Inversion 190.2 million
(MXN838.78 million equivalent; one UDI equals MXN4.41) 5.80%
fixed-rate notes series 2005 due December 2013 on CreditWatch with
negative implications.
Infu Trust is an onshore Mexican entity that has issued cross-
border asset-backed notes secured primarily by its rights (the
underlying collateral) to receivables derived from sublease
contracts for certain commercial areas of Mexico City
International Airport's Terminal 1, among others. These rights
are derived from a private lease contract between Inmobiliaria
Fumisa S.A. de C.V. and Mexico City International Airport. Fumisa
is a Mexican-based construction company that Mexico City
International Airport contracted to construct and remodel certain
areas of the airport. The revenues that Fumisa collects generate
the cashflow that is used for debt service payment for both
transactions.
The rating actions follow Mexicana de Aviacion's suspension of
domestic and international flight operations on Aug. 28, 2010.
Mexicana utilizes Terminal l, and the company's actions will have
a direct negative impact on passenger traffic volume in the
terminal. The expected decline in passenger traffic will have a
negative impact on Terminal 1 tenants' leasing space revenues, as
well as on the associated parking and jetway services.
The Mexican government does not expect Mexicana's suspension of
services to be resolved before December 2010. However, the trust
benefits from a reserve that covers two payment periods of debt
service; and the transactions' benefit from U.S. dollar- and
Mexican peso-denominated cash flows derived from the assets sold
to the trust, overcollateralization, a reserve account, and a
trigger reserve account, as well as several trigger and early
amortization events designed to mitigate adverse events affecting
the revenue stream. Despite these factors, even if Mexicana's
domestic and international flights resume fairly soon or were
reassigned to other air carriers, it would take some time before
Terminal 1's passenger traffic volume return to the levels before
Mexicana's service was suspended.
The transactions' current debt service coverage ratios are 1.19x.
S&P will continue to surveil the ratings on these transactions,
and S&P will revise them as necessary to resolve the CreditWatch
placement and to reflect any future changes in the transactions'
underlying credit quality.

MEXICANA AIRLINES: Mexico Sets December Goal to Solve Woes
----------------------------------------------------------
Mexico's Labor Minister Javier Lozano has expressed hope that the
troubles of Mexicana Airlines will be resolved in time for the
December travel season, according to a September 2 report by Dow
Jones.
Mr. Lozano said he met this week with Alejandro Rodriguez, the
investment banker who was named administrator of Tenedora K.
"The talks with them are going very well, we need to just break
this vicious cycle generated by the lack of information that
doesn't allow a good business plan to be projected which would
allow the injection of fresh capital," Mr. Lozano said at a press
conference, according to a transcript from the labor ministry.
Only days before Mexicana Airlines stopped flying, Mr. Lozano
said on a local radio station that he was not optimistic about
the investors' plans to save the company. The official also said
that he did not accept Tenedora K's proposal to terminate three-
quarters of the company's flight attendants, Dow Jones reported.
Mr. Lozano said at the press conference there are other groups
that are interested to rescue the company but he did not disclose
the identity of those groups.
The labor minister said if Mexicana Airlines survives, it will
likely be a much trimmer company with smaller fleet and fewer
routes. He said, however, that the company will also have a
management that is "professional, serious, responsible, with
capital, with bargaining agreements that make the business
viable," Dow Jones reported.
Meanwhile, Communications and Transport Minister Juan Molinar
said Tenedora K will not be able to save the company without help
from additional investors.

MEXICANA AIRLINES: Petition & Search for Investors to Continue
--------------------------------------------------------------
Mexicana Airlines suspended operations until further notice as of
midday of August 28, 2010.
Mexicana's parent, Nuevo Grupo Aeronautico S.A. de C.V., said in
a statement, that Mexicana Airlines, MexicanaClick and
MexicanaLink operations were suspended because of its "fragile
financial situation" when it changed owners weeks ago.
As previously reported, a group of Mexican investors called
Tenedora K announced on Aug. 21 it had bought a 95 percent stake
in Grupo Mexicana. Mexicana said in a statement on its Web
site that current management received the airline "in a state
of technical bankruptcy."
The financial condition, Nuevo Grupo said, has deteriorated
further over the last four weeks due to the decision by the
previous management to suspend ticket sales, forcing it to
continue operating in the interests of passengers without
receiving any revenue. It also blamed the failure to reach
agreements that would give Mexicana Airlines and its domestic
subsidiaries long-term viability.
Nuevo Grupo said the lack of effectiveness in Mexicana Airlines'
insolvency case to protect additional financial resources as well
as demands for advanced payment from suppliers also contributed
to its fragile financial situation.
"Today's decision is a painful one for the 8,000-strong Grupo
Mexicana family, but we will continue seeking out ways of
securing the company's long-term financial viability, so our
passengers can once again enjoy the quality services they are
accustomed to. We hope to be back in the air soon and would like
to thank everyone involved in this process for their support and
understanding," Nuevo Grupo said in the statement.
Without giving specific details of the company's financial
situation, Mexico's Transport Minister Juan Francisco Molinar
Horcasitas said Mexicana Airlines was forced to shut down because
it does not have enough money to keep flying and that it "is in a
process that should lead to restructuring," according to a report
by The Associated Press.
Mexicana's bankruptcy petition will continue, as will a search
for potential investors, Dow Jones cited government officials as
saying.
Pilots' union president Fernando Perfecto said halting operations
"is necessary to achieve a neat and orderly restructuring that
gives us all the opportunity to relaunch Mexicana," reports AP.
Flight attendants' union president Lizette Clavel did not rule
out job cuts as part of future negotiations but said they must be
within the current collective agreement, the report added.
Passengers who have already flown a leg of their journey and who
are scheduled to fly with Nuevo Grupo's airlines after August 28,
were advised to consult the company Web site. The company said
priority will be given to minors traveling unaccompanied,
passengers traveling with children under age 3, and special needs
passengers.
Those who have not yet begun their journey were advised to make
alternative travel arrangements.
Tour Operators Confident They Could Reschedule Flights
Tour operators said that while news of the suspension of all
flights by Mexicana Airlines was abrupt, it did not come as a
total surprise, according to an August 30 report by New York
Times.
"They stopped selling tickets for about a week so that's not a
good sign," New York Times quoted Mark Noennig, Apple Vacations
vice-president and general manager, as saying.
Tour operators said they began preparing a month ago when the
company filed for bankruptcy protection, New York Times reported.
Jim Osborne, vice-president at Virtuoso, a network of travel
agencies, said the shutdown came during a slow season for travel
to Mexico.
"If it had to be, it's the right time. If it had happened in
winter, it would have had a much bigger impact," New York Times
quoted Mr. Osborne as saying.
Tour operators said rescheduling flights is relatively easy since
Mexico's resort destinations are served by several airlines.
Meanwhile, Mexican officials played down the effect of the
shutdown on passengers.
Tourism Secretary Gloria Guevara said she did not expect the
shutdown to reduce the ministry's forecast for the number of
tourists visiting Mexico this year, and that many foreign
airlines were already planning new routes to the country, New
York Times reported.
Many Mexicans who bought tickets for their vacations feel the
outlook is not as clear, however. More than 4,000 people wrote
to a forum set up by a Mexico City daily, El Universal, to
complain and many of them offered tales of ruined vacations and
unanswered telephone calls.
Aeromexico, 3 Others to Support Stranded Passengers
Aeromexico has implemented a program that offers special fares
for ticket holders affected by the cancellation of flights by
Mexicana Airlines and its domestic subsidiaries.
In a statement posted on its Web site, Aeromexico said the
passenger protection program will be made applicable for domestic
and international flights where it operates scheduled air
service.
The program aims to aid passengers by providing fare assistance
based on a waitlist procedure to be conducted at airports. It
will be in effect from August 27 to September 20, 2010,
Aeromexico said.
Low-cost carriers Interjet and Volaris also offered special rates
for Mexicana Airlines' passengers, Dow Jones reported.
American Airlines, meanwhile, announced that it will offer
Mexicana passengers a 20% discount on any published fare for
their original flight plans, according to an August 30 report by
Fort Worth Star Telegram.
American Airlines offers four daily flights between Dallas/Fort
Worth Airport and Mexico City. It also added an extra flight
between Mexico City and D/FW to accommodate additional passengers
on August 29, but has not increased its regular schedule.

MEXICANA AIRLINES: Tenedora Names A. Rodriguez as Administrator
---------------------------------------------------------------
Tenedora K has named Alejandro Rodriguez as sole administrator
for Mexicana Airlines, Dow Jones reported.
Mr. Rodriguez has worked as director of investment banking at
Mexico-based BBVA Bancomer and has served on more than 30 company
boards.
Tenedora K's announcement came amid reports that Mexicana
Airlines' chief executive, Manuel Borja, stepped down and left
his office after three years at the post. News of his departure
came after Tenedora K acquired the shares of Mexicana Airlines'
holding company.
Tenedora K, whose investors include Grupo Industrial Omega and
Grupo Arizan, acquired 95% of Nuevo Grupo Aeronautico's shares
two weeks ago while pilots union ASPA owns the remaining 5%.
U.S. private equity firm, Advent International Corp., helped put
the deal together but is not participating as a shareholder in
the consortium.
"After Tenedora K directly accessed NGA's information and
financial and operating statements, it has been able to confirm
that the impact of labor costs on the financial and competitive
situation of the company is more serious than believed prior to
August 20, when the company was taken over," Tenedora K said in a
statement.
Tenedora K said the investment group is a vehicle for
capitalizing Mexicana Airlines which needs to address labor,
operating and financial issues to remain viable. It said the
bankruptcy case filed by Mexicana Airlines will continue.
Mexicana Airlines' pilots, ground crews and non-union staff were
working with Tenedora K towards an eventual rescue of the
company. The investment group, however, is concerned that flight
attendants' union, ASSA, is demanding labor conditions "that will
make the rescue "inviable," Dow Jones reported.
Last week, in an interview with local Radio Formula station,
Communications and Transport Minister Juan Molinar said he knew
of Tenedora K and Advent International's plans to take over
Mexicana Airlines. He said, however, that the investors had not
filed the corresponding paperwork with the ministry, which
regulates aviation in Mexico, according to the report.
Mr. Molinar acknowledged Mexicana Airlines' situation remained
"critical" but he did not provide additional details about how
much capital will be provided or the company's odds of emerging
from bankruptcy intact, Dow Jones reported.
Tenedora Provides Initial US$50 Million,
Fails to Secure Additional Funding
ASPA, the union representing pilots at Mexicana Airlines, said
Tenedora K initially provided US$50 million to keep the company
flying, according to a report by Aviation Week.
A spokesman for ASPA said the investment group provided the
initial funding "just to keep the company flying." He said the
union also agreed to a 100-day period of reduced pay but will
help decide which routes Mexicana Airlines will keep flying and
with how many aircraft and crew, Aviation Week reported.
The spokesman said the union also will be given better access to
the company's financial situation.
"We realize there will be some cuts in employees -- not only
pilots, but also ground personnel and flight attendants -- but we
don't know yet how many," Aviation Week quoted the union
spokesman as saying. "At the end of the 100 days, we shall know
what's going to happen with all the operation."
Earlier reports said that Mexicana Airlines' mechanics and flight
attendants were contemplating a deal that would reduce their pay
for a 100-day period and would result in a new five-year
agreement that mirrors contract terms at Mexicana Click. It
seems those deals have not been reached yet, Aviation Week
reported.
Moreover, Tenedora K has been unable to secure investment
commitments for the company which resulted to the carrier
suspending its operations until further notice, reports Dow
Jones.

HINDU CREDIT UNION: Group Tells Government Not to Bail Out Firm
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Trinidad and Tobago government would be wrong to use
taxpayers' money to bail out the Hindu Credit Union, just as the
past administration should not have bailed out CL Financial
Limited, Trinidad Express reports, citing architect Afra Raymond,
head of the Institute of Surveyors of Trinidad and Tobago Ltd.
"In the same way it was wrong for the last administration to use
taxpayers' money to rescue the CL Financial chiefs from the real
consequences of their decisions, it would be equally wrong for
this newly-elected government to also bail out those affected by
the HCU's demise. Two wrongs could never make a right," the
report quoted Mr. Raymond as saying. Mr. Raymond is also a member
of the Trinidad and Tobago Transparency Institute, which recently
called for an investigation into the workings of CL Financial's
unit, Angostura Holdings Ltd.
Mr. Raymond, the report notes, said that comparisons of the CLICO
situation to the bailout of some American companies by the US
Government were misleading, as the CLICO deal was "unique".
Describing the CLICO bailout as a "bold-faced attack on our
Treasury", Mr. Raymond stated that the deal should be re-
negotiated as it is, currently, a huge, single loan made by
taxpayers at zero interest, he added.
The first Budget presentation from the People's Partnership
government is due to be read in Parliament on September 8, 2010.
According to the report, unnamed sources close to the government
have hinted that a bailout is in the cards for the fallen HCU.
The report relates Finance Minister Winston Dookeran said that the
government will include some kind of payout for HCU shareholders
and depositors.
About Hindu Credit
Hindu Credit Union Co-Operative Society Limited (HCU)
--http://www.ourhcu.com/-- is headquartered in Borough,
Chaguanas, in Trinidad and Tobago.
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
July 28, 2008, the High Court of Trinidad and Tobago granted the
government full control of Hindu Credit as the company faces
financial difficulties, leaving depositors in limbo despite
requests from lawyers. In June 2008, chartered accountants Ernst
and Young inspected Hindu Credit's books, accounts, and records
after a public outcry and calls for an internal audit. Charles
Mitchell, the Commissioner for Co-Operative Development,
represents Hindu Credit's depositors.

CASINO GUICHARD: Venezuela to Pay US$690 Million for 80% Stake
--------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel Cancel at Bloomberg News reports that Venezuela will pay
US$690 million for an 80% stake in Casino Guichard Perrachon SA's
local retailing operations after President Hugo Chavez seized some
supermarkets earlier this year for what the state called
unauthorized price increases. The report, citing a statement from
the Information Ministry, relates the government will pay the
Casino-led local unit known as Cativen, US$138 million in cash, or
20% of the total amount, on September 7, 2010.
According to the report, President Chavez seized six Exito brand
retail stores and more than 30 Cada brand supermarkets operated by
Cativen this year for illegally raising prices following a
devaluation. The report notes that they were converted into
state-run food and household-goods chain known as Abastos
Bicentenarios. Casino Guichard will keep a 20% stake in the
business, the report adds.
About Casino Guichard
Groupe Casino aka Casino Guichard Perrachon SA is a large French
multinational corporation, formerly part of the CAC 40 index,
whose main business is with retail and distribution in hyper and
supermarkets. The company's head office is in Saint- tienne.[2]

***********
Monday's edition of the TCR-LA delivers a list of indicative
prices for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par.
Prices are obtained by TCR-LA 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-LA constitutes an offer
or solicitation to buy or sell any security of any kind. It is
likely that some entity affiliated with a TCR-LA editor holds
some position in the issuers' public debt and equity securities
about which we report.
Tuesday's edition of the TCR-LA features a list of companies
with insolvent balance sheets obtained by our editors based on
the latest balance sheets publicly available a day prior to
publication. 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-LA. Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged. Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com
