OGX PETROLEO: Fitch Assigns Issuer Default Rating at 'B+'
---------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned a foreign and local currency Issuer
Default Rating (IDR) of 'B+' to OGX Petroleo e Gas Participacoes
S.A. (OGX). Fitch has also assigned a 'B+/RR4' to the company's
proposed senior unsecured notes issuance due 2018 in the amount of
approximately USD2 billion and a long-term national scale rating
of 'BBB(bra)'. The 'RR4' recovery rating on the issuance reflects
an average expected recovery in the event of default. The Rating
Outlook is Stable.
OGX's ratings reflect the company's sizable and diversified oil
and gas resources, its experienced management team and its
expected ability to execute the start up of production from its
shallow water Campos blocks using standard and proven technology.
Primary concerns include; the potential for a delay in
incorporating proven reserves, unforeseen production delays that
could result from delays in critical equipment delivery and/or
lower than expected ramp-up of production volumes, and exposure to
contracted, yet, unlocked leasing fees for key production
equipment. These factors could result in the need for additional
financing for OGX over the medium term. Initially, production risk
is mitigated to some extent as key equipment has been secured and
procurement is in an advanced stage for additional equipment to
meet production targets.
Large Contingent and Prospective Resources:
OGX estimates it has a portfolio potential of approximately 10.8
billion of recoverable barrels of oil equivalent (boe). In total,
the company has 34 offshore and onshore exploratory blocks; 29 of
the blocks are located in Brazil, and five of the blocks are
located in Colombia. These blocks cover an offshore area of
approximately 7,000 square kilometers, as well as an onshore area
of 34,000 square kilometers. In Brazil, 90% of the portfolio is
located in shallow waters or onshore.
The bulk of the company's resources are comprised of contingent
and prospective resources, with no proven oil and gas reserves to
date. As of December 2010, a DeGolyer & MacNaughton (D&M) report
indicated OGX's Campos blocks hold 3.0 billion boe of total net 3C
contingent resources, 1.3 billion boe of delineation prospective
resources (high estimates not Pg adjusted), and 1.4 billion boe of
exploration prospective resource (mean estimate Pg adjusted) based
on the drilling results of 19 wells through December 1, 2010.
Since that time, 15 additional wells were drilled that hit and
further support the D&M data and extended the area with resources.
Contingent and potential resources are defined as the quantities
of petroleum estimated to be potentially recoverable from known
and undiscovered accumulations, respectively. Contingent resources
are expected to be converted into proved reserves upon declaration
of commerciality.
Start-up Operation Yield Higher Risks:
OGX is in the production start-up phase after completing over 42
exploration wells over the last two years. While unproven
production volumes and the start-up phase of oil production
greatly add to OGX's business risk, the company's initial drilling
campaign was highly successful and was focused on several of the
Campos basin blocks, which are directly adjacent to other
producing blocks; the Campos basin currently produces
approximately 1.6 million BOE/d for Petrobras. The blocks are in
shallow water and technology risks are low; the oil gravity is 20
degrees API for first field to be developed.
OGX is targeting to begin production in October 2011 in the Campos
basin - Waimea Complex, where it has developed an aggressive
drilling campaign. As of April 2011, 35 exploratory wells have
been drilled in the Campos basin with a 100% success rate. OGX has
received approval from Brazil's National Petroleum Agency (ANP) to
perform an extended well test. All critical equipment and services
are in place and the horizontal well has been drilled and
successfully tested. The initial well should begin producing by
October, 2011.
The company expects production to ramp-up in a second area in
Campos called the Waikiki project in the second half of 2013. By
2013, the company expects to have approximately 10 horizontal
production wells each producing approximately 15,000 - 20,000
boe/d.
OGX has secured seven offshore rigs under contract and its first
FPSO, OSX-1, is expected to arrive mid-year; other production
equipment to meet these goals, includes two additional FPSOs, OSX-
2 and OSX-3, which will be constructed in Singapore.
OGX is also expected to begin its exploratory drilling campaign in
the Espirito Santos basin in the second half of this year and
ramp-up exploratory drilling in the Parnaiba basin. The company
will also begin seismic shooting of its Colombian blocks.
Experienced, Knowledgeable Management:
The management team is experienced in the oil and gas sector with
an average of 31 years of experience in the Brazilian oil and gas
industry. The company's General Executive Officer of Exploration
and Production, Paulo Mendonca, was the former head of Petrobras'
exploration department from 2002 until 2007; a successful period
for Petrobras' discovery, development and production of offshore
hydrocarbons. Further, the majority of the remaining senior
management team comes from Petrobras. They have extensive working
experience in the basins where OGX is expected to produce. This
experience and firsthand knowledge somewhat lowers uncertainty
regarding the ability to execute its production plans.
The company also intends to keep a balance of intellectual capital
and project management skills and outsource many of the production
aspects with reputable, international oil and gas service
companies wherever possible. As of April 2011, OGX's direct
employees totaled 260, total direct and indirect including
subcontractors is more than 6,000.
Significant Capital Investment:
OGX has a very aggressive growth strategy that envisions growing
production from zero today to over 730 thousand boe per day
(kboe/d) in approximately five years. This growth plan will
require large capital investments that will be needed to bring
production on line. The company's initial production phase will
focus on the Campos and Parnaiba blocks, which will account for
the bulk of the company's total investment program of up to USD5.0
billion through 2013. As a result, OGX is expected to report
negative free cash flow over the next three years.
OGX expects to finance its capital investment requirements and
other start-up costs with USD2.5 billion of cash on hand, the
proposed USD2 billion debt issuance proceeds and, to a lesser
extent, from internal cash flow generation once production begins
to come online. OGX's funding needs and internal cash flow
generation could be compromised by delays in production equipment
delivery, cost overruns, lower than expected production volumes,
and weaker crude prices. Alternative sources of financing include
potential partial asset sales of exiting blocks, and new equity
issuances, although the latter appears less unlikely.
High Expected Leveraged and Ample Liquidity:
OGX has a satisfactory liquidity position of approximately
USD2.5billion and no funded debt as of March 2011. OGX's
concessions and initial exploration activities have been fully
financed with the proceeds from two equity issuances. In November
2007, OGX raised USD1.3 billion through a private placement equity
offering. In June 2008, the company raised an additional USD4.1
billion through an IPO. The cash on hand is the remaining cash
from the first two equity issuances. OGX expects to issue
approximately USD2 - 3 billion in unsecured notes that are
expected to fund the initial production ramp-up through 2015.
Fitch estimates that as production ramps up over the next two
years, through 2013, leverage as measured by total adjusted debt
to EBITDA, will fall from non-meaningful levels today (no
operating cash flow) to levels in the high single digits. Fitch
expects leverage should substantially decline to below 4.0 times
(x) after adjusting debt for operating leases in 2014 and 2015 as
production comes on line and operating cash flow increases. Fitch
also expects the vast majority of incremental total adjusted debt
will be associated with operating leases for production equipment
with affiliate company, OSX.
Fitch projects EBITDA will grow to between USD6.0 - USD8.0 billion
by 2015 using Fitch's published mid-cycle price deck and by
applying significant discounts to management's production targets;
Fitch's base case is significantly lower than management's
expectations. Over the same period, Fitch projects funded debt
will remain at approximately USD3.0 billion although Fitch's net
adjusted debt for operating leases will increase total net
adjusted obligations to slightly greater than USD10.0 billion by
2015. Leverage based on debt to proven reserves is expected to be
below USD3.0 per barrel assuming 4.0 billion boe are proved out
over the next few years. These estimates may vary depending on
eventual production rates/levels, the level of proven reserves,
and ultimately crude prices.
Rating Drivers:
Catalysts for a negative rating action include a significant delay
in bringing production online, coupled with lower than expected
discovery levels and incorporating reserves, which could result in
increased funding needs and deteriorate OGX's credit quality. A
positive rating action could result from satisfactory production
volumes, coupled with lower uncertainties regarding reserves.
Company Profile
OGX is a Brazilian Oil and Gas company 61.2% owned by EBX Group.
OGX has a portfolio of 34 blocks, of which 29 are located in
Brazil (22 are offshore) and 5 in Colombia. In Brazil, OGX's
blocks are located in the Campos, Santos, Espirito Santo, Para-
Maranhao and Parnaiba Basins - covering an area of 28,500 square
kilometers. In Colombia, OGX acquired five blocks in the 2010 open
auctions, with a total area of 12,500 square kilometers in the
Cesar-Rancheria and Magdalena Basins. OGX was created in 2007 and
has financed its acquisitions and drilling activities with
proceeds from a USD1.3 billion private equity placement in
November 2007 and a R$6.7 billion (USD4.1 billion) IPO in June
2008.

About Satmex SAB
Satelites Mexicanos, S.A. de C.V., (Satmex) is a Mexico-based
provider of fixed satellite services in the Americas, with

America, Satmex has a fleet comprised of three satellites. Satmex
5 and Satmex 6 generate the adjusted EBITDA for Satmex. A third

completed by July 2012. Satmex also intends to pursue plans for a
new satellite, to be named Satmex 7.
Satmex first filed for bankruptcy in August 2006 in New York and
exited four months later with a plan to repay creditors owed about

SATELITES MEXICANOS: S&P Assigns 'B' Corporate Credit Rating
------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its preliminary 'B'
corporate credit rating to Mexico-based satellite operator
Satelites Mexicanos S.A. de C.V. (Satmex). The outlook is stable.
"At the same time, we assigned Satmex's US$325 million senior
secured notes our preliminary issue rating of 'B' (at the same
level as the preliminary 'B' corporate credit rating) with a
preliminary recovery rating of '3', indicating our expectation of
meaningful (50%-70%) recovery for debt holders in the event
of a payment default," S&P said.
"The rating reflects the company's announcement that the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware confirmed the
company's prepackaged plan of reorganization under the Chapter 11
of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code," said Standard & Poor's credit
analyst Marcela Duenas. Under the terms of the plan, Satmex would
reduce its total debt to approximately US$325 million from
approximately US$440 million. The preliminary ratings are subject
to Satmex's timely emergence from bankruptcy and consummation of
its plan of reorganization in line with our expectations. "The
preliminary ratings are also subject to the first- and second-lien
secured notes being redeemed on substantially the same terms as
represented to us. Any meaningful changes to the capital structure
may result in Standard & Poor's assigning different ratings. If
the company emerges from bankruptcy with a significantly different
capital structure, we could withdraw the preliminary ratings and
assign a lower issuer credit rating. The preliminary and expected
ratings are also subject to final documentation and our review of
legal matters that we believe are relevant to our analysis, as
outlined in our criteria."
"The preliminary ratings on Satmex reflect its highly leveraged
financial risk profile, our expectation of negative free operating
cash flow (FOCF) in the next two years, the company's weak
business risk profile as a result of strong competition from
regional and global satellite companies in the same markets where
it operates, its limited fleet, customer concentration risk, and
risks regarding the launch of a new satellite. Partially
mitigating these factors are some features inherent to the fixed
satellite services (FSS) industry such as high barriers of entry
given the scarcity of licenses for orbital slots (Satmex holds
three orbital locations); the high cost of building, insuring,
launching and operating satellites; the longer-term nature of
transponder contracts; attractive orbital locations and elevation
angles that provide robust coverage to 90% of the Americas
population; high utilization rates; and adequate pro forma
liquidity. U.S. dollar-denominated contracts mitigate foreign
exchange risk," according to S&P.
"The stable outlook would reflect Satmex's adequate pro forma
liquidity and our view that, pro forma for the restructure, Satmex
will maintain stable financial indicators and would be able to
service its debt, and fund the last stage of construction and
launch of Satmex 8. Delays or failing to launch Satmex 8,
additional indebtedness that leads to higher leverage, customers
switching to other satellite providers, or higher-than-expected
capital expenditures may lead us to lower the ratings. If Satmex's
operations grow, turning FOCF positive sooner than we expect, and
the company's leverage remains under 3.0x, it is possible that we
may raise the ratings," S&P added.
TV AZTECA: Fitch Assigns 'BB-' on Proposed US$300MM Senior Notes
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned a 'BB-' rating to TV Azteca, S.A.B. de
CV proposed US$300 million senior notes due 2018. Proceeds from
the proposed issuance will be used to repay existing indebtedness
and general corporate uses, including working capital and capex.
Fitch currently rates TV Azteca:
-- Long-term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) 'BB-';
-- Local currency IDR 'BB-'.
The Rating Outlook is Stable.
TV Azteca's ratings reflect its business position as the second
largest TV broadcaster in Mexico with national presence and one of
the largest Spanish speaking TV companies worldwide. The ratings
consider the company's financial profile and strong cash
generation, which in turn has been used in past years to finance
growth, pay dividends, capital reductions and share repurchases.
TV Azteca's ratings are limited by the mature stage of the
industry, high competition from traditional and new distribution
platforms, limited revenue diversification base, as well as the
company's debt structure and financial flexibility.
TV Azteca's business position reflects its stable market share in
the domestic market. Mexico's TV broadcasting market is comprised
of two national networks (Grupo Televisa, S.A.B. and TV Azteca)
and smaller regional and local broadcasters. Television continues
to be the most important mass media in Mexico for advertisers. The
company's revenues are supported in the attractiveness of its
internally produced content which allows it to align advertisers
with specific demographics.
Traditionally, advertisers with presence in broadcasted TV in
Mexico are engaged in less cyclical segments such as consumer
goods and services, which in turn have been translated into stable
cash flows during economic cycles. During 2010, TV Azteca's
revenues grew 15.9% versus 2009, compared to a national GDP growth
of 5.5%. This increase reflects TV Azteca's market share gains
during 2010, as well as increased revenues coming from the World
Cup during June-July 2010 and improved economic conditions.
Special events such as Olympics and World Cup are recurrent
sources of revenues; however, they are not present every year.
TV Azteca's profitability has remained strong reflecting higher
and stable audience ratings, which in turn have translated into
better pricing (price linked to rating points) and management's
strict cost and expenses control. Management has implemented
incentives to sales force in function of ratings; on the costs and
expenses side, while COGS has remained relatively stable at 51%-
52% of revenues, despite the World Cup special events, SG&A have
declined as a percentage of sales to 11% in 2010, from 12% in
2009, 12.8% in 2008 and 13.2% in 2007. As a result, EBITDA margin
reached 40.9% in 2010, similar to 41.4% at year-end 2009.
TV Azteca's financial profile is strong for the rating category
and has been stable in recent years. Total debt to EBITDA for 2010
was 2.0 times (x) compared to 2.2x and 2.5x at year-end 2009 and
2008, respectively. For the same periods, interest expense covered
by EBITDA was 4.8x, compared to 4.4x and 3.9x, respectively. Fitch
expects that TV Azteca's main credit metrics will remain strong as
a result of stable cash generation and debt amortization.
In recent years internally generated cash has been the company's
main source to finance growth and cash distributions to
shareholders. The company's strategy continues to be focused in
the production of robust programming which requires investment in
talent and facilities. Management guidance for 2011 includes
maintenance capex of approximately US$30 million, increased
production capacity of US$30 million and dividend payments of
approximately US$25 million, which Fitch sees manageable for the
company's forecasted cash generation and that those levels will
remain relatively stable in the near future.
While liquidity risk is low and the pro forma debt maturity
profile is adequate, it is important to remark that a
significative portion of the company's total debt is secured by
different schemes; 63% is secured by 22% of national advertising
revenues, 3.7% is secured by assets and 12% is guaranteed by TV
Azteca's main subsidiaries. Total debt as of March 31, 2011 was
MXN9.251 million, with short-term debt of MXN1.916 million (which
is expected to be refinanced with the proposed issuance proceeds)
and cash of MXN5.658 million. Historically, the company has
supported its liquidity requirements with uncommitted short-term
credit facilities.
TV Azteca's debt is comprised of structured Certificados
Bursatiles of MXN6,000 million which start amortizing in 2011
through 2020, bank loans of MXN1,818 million and MXN1,433 million
(US$120 million) financing with American Tower Corp. maturing in
2069. With the proposed senior notes issuance the company plans to
repay most of its short-term debt balance, allowing it to extend
debt maturities and improve its liquidity position. Fitch does not
expect material changes in TV Azteca's main credit metrics after
the transaction.

CL FINANCIAL: CPG Head All for Ex-Chairman's Return
---------------------------------------------------
Trinidad Express reports that Chairman of the Colonial Life
Insurance Company (CLICO) Policyholders Group Peter Permell is not
opposed to the return of former chairman Lawrence Duprey to the
helm of CL Financial Limited.
CLICO is a subsidiary of CL Financial Limited.
Cabinet is said to be close to a decision on the Government's
"exit strategy" which could see Mr. Duprey once again running the
beleaguered company, according to Trinidad Express.
Trinidad Express, citing a press release, Mr. Permell cited Mr.
Duprey as the most appropriate person to oversee the repayment of
policyholders.
About CL Financial
CL Financial Group Limited is a privately held conglomerate in
Trinidad and Tobago. Founded as an insurance company by Cyril
Duprey, Colonial Life Insurance Company was expanded into a
diversified company by his nephew, Lawrence Duprey. CL Financial
is now one of the largest local conglomerates in the region,
encompassing over 65 companies in 32 countries worldwide with
total assets standing at roughly US$100 billion.
* * *
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Latin America on
August 10, 2009, A.M. Best Co. downgraded the financial strength
rating to C (Weak) from B (Fair) and issuer credit rating to "ccc"
from "bb" of Colonial Life Insurance Company (Trinidad) Limited
(CLICO) (Trinidad & Tobago). The ratings remain under review with
negative implications. CLICO is an insurance member company of CL
Financial Limited (CL Financial), a diversified holding company
based in Trinidad & Tobago.
According to a TCR-LA report on Feb. 20, 2009, citing Trinidad and
Tobago Express, Tobago President George Maxwell Richards signed
bailout bills for CL Financial, giving the government the
authority to control the company's unit, Colonial Life Insurance
Company, and giving the central bank extensive powers to treat
with CL Financial's collapse and the consequent systemic crisis.
NATIONAL FLOUR MILLS: Seeks Extension of 1Q Results Submission
--------------------------------------------------------------
Trinidad and Tobago Newsday reports that National Flour Mills
Limited (NFM) has requested a one-month extension of the deadline
for the submission of its first quarter 2011 results. In a
statement from the Trinidad and Tobago Stock Exchange (TTSE), they
said the new Board has requested additional time to review and
deliberate on its financials, according to T&T Newsday.
On March 3, a new Board was appointed, including chairman
Jacqueline Burgess.
In February, the report recalls, the TTSE strongly reprimanded NFM
for not informing it that five of the company's six directors had
resigned, the effective date of their resignation or disclosing
the notice of the convening of the special meeting.
The length of time that NFM took to fill the vacancies also meant
that NFM was in breach of Section 64 of the Companies Act, which
provides that a public company will have no fewer than three
directors, T&T Newsday says.

***********
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
