FINNAIR OYJ: 2004 Passenger Number Reaches Record High
------------------------------------------------------
Last year, Finnair's passenger numbers passed the eight million
mark for the first time in the airline's history.  Finnair Group
airlines flew a total of 8,149,100 passengers in 2004, 1.3
million passengers (19%) more than in 2003.  Demand (RPK) in
2004 was 20.2% higher than the previous year.  At the same time,
capacity was increased by 17.4%, which led to the passenger load
factor improving by 2.4 percentage points to 71.2%.

Finnair traffic, measured in passenger kilometers, increased by
15.1% in December, while capacity was up by 17.6%, resulting in
a passenger load factor of 72.8%, 1.6 points lower than last
year.  Finnair Group airlines altogether transported 636,100
passengers, which is 17.2% more than a year ago.

Finnair scheduled traffic increased by 14.3% compared to
December last year.  Passenger load factor was 64.6%, down 1.6
percentage points.  The number of passengers carried was
528,700, up 17.3%.

Departure punctuality of scheduled flights was 84.5% (based on a
fifteen minute standard), 2.4 points better than in December
2003.  Leisure flights included, departure punctuality was 82.8%
(+1.8 p.p).  Arrival punctuality of scheduled flights was 85.3%
and that of all operations was 84.5%.  According to the
punctuality data of the Association of European Airlines (AEA),
in January-October Finnair was the most punctual airline and one
of the airlines with least cancellations.

Finnair's Tallinn-based subsidiary Aero carried 49,900
passengers on routes between Helsinki and the Baltic capitals
and within Southern Finland.  The total number of passengers for
the year was 213,100.  During December, Stockholm-based
flynordic (former Nordic Airlink) continued to gain market share
and carried 74,600 passengers on its Scandinavian routes.
Flynordic's performance meters have been geared to Finnair
standards during 2004.  Flynordic's amended total passenger
figure for 2004 is 725,000.  In future reporting, amended
numbers from 2004 will be used as comparison figures.  Aero and
flynordic figures respectively are included in the Finnair Group
total figures.

EURO DISNEY: Counts on Saudi Prince Anew to Clinch Rescue Deal
--------------------------------------------------------------
Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal has agreed to support the
restructuring plan of theme park operator Euro Disney, according
to The Telegraph.

Prince Bin Talal, who is one of the world's richest men, will
subscribe to EUR25 million of Euro Disney's rights issue and
allow his 16% stake to be diluted to 10%.  This is the third
time he will participate in the company's reorganization.  In
1994, he took a 24% stake when Euro Disney restructured EUR3
billion of debt.  He reduced this holding during the second
restructuring in 1999.

Euro Disney's latest rescue plan, agreed with creditors in
September, includes the issuance of EUR250 million (GBP175
million) worth of shares.  About EUR240 million of this will go
to building new attractions as part of the firm's efforts to
increase revenues.

Euro Disney's largest shareholder, The Walt Disney Company with
a 39% stake, has agreed to subscribe to EUR100 million of the
rights issue and write off EUR292 million in debt.

The rights issue should be completed by March 31.  Once done,
Euro Disney's syndicate of banks headed by Calyon and BNP
Paribas will have to extend the deadlines for repaying loans
worth EUR600 million to 2008 and beyond.  Euro Disney is EUR2
billion in debt and has not turned in profit for almost three
years now.  Recently it reported a 3% increase in revenues to a
record EUR269 million for the three months ended December 31, up
from EUR262 million the year before.


LEGRAND HOLDINGS: Fitch Affirms Senior Unsecured Notes at 'BB-'
---------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings affirmed the rating on France-based Legrand
Holdings S.A.'s EUR2.1 billion senior secured credit facility at
'BBB-' and simultaneously withdrawn it.  At the same time, Fitch
has affirmed the rating on the 10-year EUR600 million senior
unsecured notes at 'BB-' with Positive Outlook.

The withdrawal of the rating on Legrand's senior secured debt
follows the refinancing of the senior secured credit facilities
through a new EUR1.4 billion five-year facility split equally
between a term loan and a revolver.  The refinancing is expected
to reduce Legrand's annual interest burden by around EUR16
million.  Fitch will not assign a rating to the new five-year
facility but will continue to rate the EUR600 million senior
unsecured notes.

Legrand is a leading worldwide manufacturer of products and
systems for low voltage electrical installations and data
networks.  For the first nine months to 30 September 2004, the
company achieved sales and EBITDA before exceptionals of
EUR2.203 million and EUR494 million respectively, compared to
EUR2.069 million and EUR433 million in the first nine months of
2003.  At constant scope of consolidation and exchange rates,
net sales were up 9.4% while the impact of adverse exchange rate
movement was negative 2.7%.  The positive operating performance
continues to contribute to the reduction of net total leverage
to 3.3x at 30 September 2004 from 4.2x at the end of 2003.

MARIONNAUD PARFUMERIES: Banks Demand Independent Audit
------------------------------------------------------
Creditor banks of troubled perfume group Marionnaud Parfumeries
want an independent audit of the group's account before deciding
to support its debt restructuring, The Financial Times says.

The banks' stance came in light following weeks of unstable
share prices and reports of accounting irregularities.  "The
banks want an audit before they can say whether they will
continue to support the group or restructure its debt," The
Financial Times cites a source close to the matter.

Marionnaud has asked the local stock exchange to suspend its
share, pending a statement on an unnamed financial deal.  The
company refused to release further statements.

Financial markets authority Autorite Des Marches Financiers
(AMF) has launched a probe against Marionnaud Parfumeries.  The
probe will look into the alleged accounting fraud at the group.
AMF said it would look on the group's retail discounts and
supplier contributions to advertising, which comprises 90% of
the miscalculations.

Meanwhile, the group named a representative of a small
shareholders' group to the board, which was previously occupied
by relatives of Marionnaud founder Marcel Frydman.  The
company's problems started in December 2004 after admitting
EUR93 million in accounting errors.  The group has postponed
thrice the publication of its first-half results.

INFINEON TECHNOLOGIES: Q1 Earnings to Fall Short of Forecast
------------------------------------------------------------
Infineon Technologies AG (FSE/NYSE:IFX) announced, based on
preliminary figures available Wednesday, that it expects
revenues and earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2005 to be below market
expectations.  The company expects revenues of approximately
EUR1.82 billion and EBIT of approximately EUR211 million.  These
numbers include the non-recurring license income of
approximately EUR118 million in connection with the settlement
with ProMOS.

The Automotive & Industrial segment is expected to show revenues
of approximately EUR452 million and an EBIT of approximately
EUR50 million.  Lower revenues combined with an active reduction
in inventory levels resulted in a decline of fab utilization and
EBIT margin.

Wireline Communications is expected to show revenues of
approximately EUR106 million and a negative EBIT of
approximately EUR29 million.  The company anticipates no
financial impact of Tuesday's termination of the agreement with
Finisar and the related restructuring of the Fiber Optics
business in the first quarter of fiscal year 2005.

Secure Mobile Solutions is expected to show revenues of
approximately EUR439 million and an EBIT of approximately EUR2
million.  In line with the outlook provided in the context of
the company's fourth quarter results announcement, results were
influenced by reduced volumes due to inventory corrections at
customers and lower than expected manufacturing utilization.

All logic segments were negatively affected by the sharp decline
of the U.S. dollar.

Revenues of the Memory Products segment are expected to be
approximately EUR766 million, EBIT is likely to be approximately
EUR196 million, including the non-recurring license income of
approximately EUR118 million in connection with the settlement
with ProMOS.  While bit production has slightly increased,
shipments have declined due to an anticipated increase in
inventory levels.  Revenues and EBIT were negatively affected by
the sharp decline of the U.S. dollar.

The information reported above is based on preliminary results.
Further analysis will be required to finalize the results for
the first quarter.  Infineon at present will not provide further
information.

The company will announce details on the results of the first
quarter of fiscal year 2005 as well as an outlook for the
current quarter on January 24, 2005.  The same day, Infineon
will host a telephone conference with analysts and investors at
10:00 a.m. Central European Standard Time (CET), and with media
at 11:30 a.m. (CET).  Both conference calls will be available
live and for download at http://www.infineon.com.

ALITALIA SPA: European Union to Launch Probe Next Week
------------------------------------------------------
Troubled national carrier Alitalia will undergo an in-depth
probe on its restructuring plan, Reuters says.

Transport Commissioner Jacques Barrot confirmed Wednesday that
the European Commission will start the inquiry on January 19.
The regulator has been reviewing Alitalia's restructuring plan,
searching for signs of illegal state aid.

Mr. Barrot said, "I intend to ask the college of commissioners
next Wednesday to open a procedure to get clarification on the
questions we are asking and to avoid legal uncertainty.  We need
to clarify if there is state aid or not. We need to clarify the
question of the bank guarantees."

The Transport Commissioner said the probe was necessary to be
certain Alitalia's restructuring plan contains no traces of
state aid.  Mr. Barrot said, "There is no negative presumption
in this procedure, just the wish to have the maximum certainty,
because otherwise there could be recourse to the courts."

The probe will focus on certain aspects of the restructuring
plan, including Alitalia's planned EUR1.2 billion capital
increase.  The probe might look into the participants of the
capital increase, as the government allocated around EUR750
million in 2005 for Alitalia's recapitalization.

The probe will also seek details on the planned partial
acquisition of Alitalia's ground service unit AZ-Service.
Transport Minister Pietro Lunardi revealed the regulator would
seek answers to 23 questions.

The probe might last for 18 months, but the Transport
Commissioner promised a swift one, as Italy does not want to put
Alitalia's future into jeopardy.  The time frame of the probe
will, however, depend on the cooperation of the government,
Reuters cites an E.U. insider.

Mr. Lunardi commented, "The opening of the probe is something
they have to do.  It will be as brief as possible -- a few
months."

Alitalia's restructuring plan entails splitting the carrier into
two different business units and a EUR1.2 billion capital
increase.  Alitalia will undergo privatization, in which the
government would reduce its stake from 62% to less than 50%.

CIRIO FINANZIARIA: Administrators Back Lucio Tan's Bid
------------------------------------------------------
Philippine businessman Lucio Tan is close to acquiring the 40%
stake owned by bankrupt food group Cirio Finanziaria in Del
Monte Pacific.

Inquirer News Service citing a report from Italy said
administrators of Cirio have given their support to Mr. Tan's
bid for the Singapore-listed company.

Cirio has been selling assets under three commissioners,
including Mario Resca, the chairman of McDonald's in Italy, to
raise cash to pay creditors after defaulting in bonds in 2002.
The Del Monte stake is worth US$180 million at market prices.  A
sale would bring Cirio's restructuring almost to a close.  The
report cited sources in Milan, Italy saying the Industry
Ministry might approve the deal by the end of the week.

The sources did not give details of Mr. Tan's bid and the
administrators declined to comment on the matter.   Mr. Tan, who
already has interests in tobacco, airlines, banking and alcohol,
is planning to expand its food operations.  He outbid Philippine
beverage and food conglomerate San Miguel Corp. in the final
round.

The Lorenzo family in the Philippines owns 21% of Del Monte; the
Singapore government holds about 10%.  The two financial
advisers working on the sale are Italy's EnVent and Calyon of
France.  Cirio is famous for canned tomatoes around the world
and for canned fruit under the Del Monte name.

PARMALAT FINANZIARIA: 'We Were Deceived,' Says Citigroup
--------------------------------------------------------
U.S.-based bank Citigroup asserted it is also a victim of the
fraud masterminded by the managers of collapsed food group
Parmalat Finanziaria, Il Sole 24 Ore says.

Citigroup, which was included as respondent in a class action
against Parmalat and other institutions, said through its
lawyers that it had lost hundreds of million of dollars as a
Parmalat creditor.  The bank insisted deals with the bankrupt
dairy group, one of which was the creation of dummy firm
Buconero, were only routine operations.

A group of international and local investors filed on October
19, 2004 a US$10 billion class action lawsuit against Parmalat
managers, creditor banks Citigroup and Bank of America (BofA),
and auditors Deloitte & Touche and Grant Thornton.  The suit
accused the respondents of conniving to dupe Parmalat investors
by concealing the dairy giant's true financial state.
Parmalat's extraordinary commissioner Enrico Bondi has also
filed US$10 billion lawsuits against Citigroup and BofA and US$5
billion lawsuits against Deloitte & Touche and Grant Thornton.

PARMALAT U.S.A.: Asks Court to Establish Solicitation Procedures
----------------------------------------------------------------
Parmalat U.S.A. Corporation and its U.S. debtor-affiliates seek
to establish procedures and deadlines to facilitate the
solicitation and tabulation of votes to accept or reject their
Plan of Reorganization.

                           Record Date

Pursuant to Rule 3017(d) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy
Procedure, the U.S. Debtors ask the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Southern District of New York to fix the approval date of
their Disclosure Statement as the record date for purposes of
determining creditors entitled to vote on the Plan or, in the
case of non-voting classes, to receive a Notice of Non-Voting
Status.

               Solicitation Packages and Procedures

The U.S. Debtors propose to mail no later than January 18, 2005,
solicitation packages containing copies of:

    -- the order approving the Disclosure Statement;
    -- a notice of the hearing to confirm the Plan;
    -- the Disclosure Statement and the Plan.

The Debtors will provide additional solicitation materials in
the Solicitation Packages.  Holders of claims and equity
interests in classes entitled to vote to accept or reject the
Plan will receive:

   (a) a form of Ballot and a return envelope;

   (b) a letter from the Official Committee of Unsecured
       Creditors recommending acceptance of the Plan; and

   (c) other materials as the Court may direct.

Consistent with Sections 1126(f) and (g) of the Bankruptcy Code
and Bankruptcy Rule 3017(d), Solicitation Packages for holders
of claims against or equity interests in the U.S. Debtors within
a class under the Plan that is deemed to accept or reject the
Plan will not include a Ballot.  The Solicitation Packages for
those holders of claims and equity interests will include a
Notice of Non-Voting Status.

The Debtors also will not distribute copies of the Plan or
Disclosure Statement to any holder of a claim or equity interest
within a class that is deemed to accept or reject the Plan,
unless that party makes a specific request in writing.

Solicitation Packages will not be sent to creditors that have
claims already paid in full.  However, if, and to the extent
that, any creditor would be entitled to receive a Solicitation
Package for any reason other than by virtue of the fact that its
claim had been scheduled, then that creditor will be sent a
Solicitation Package in accordance with the Solicitation
Procedures.

                           Ballot Form

The U.S. Debtors propose to distribute to certain creditors one
or more ballots substantially in the form based on Official
Form No. 14, but modified to (i) address the particular aspects
of the Debtors' Chapter 11 cases and (ii) include certain
additional information relevant and appropriate for each class
of claims that is entitled to vote to accept or reject the Plan.
The appropriate Ballot form will be distributed to holders of
claims and equity interests in:

     * PUSA Class 3 (General Unsecured Claims against Parmalat
       USA);

     * PUSA Class 4 (Equity Interests in PUSA);

     * Farmland Class 3a (General Unsecured Claims against
       Farmland);

     * Farmland Class 3b (Master Lease Claim);

     * Farmland Class 3c (Convenience Claims);

     * MPA Class 3a (General Unsecured Claims against MPA);

     * MPA Class 4 (Equity Interests in MPA),

which are impaired and, therefore, entitled to vote.

                         Voting Deadline

The U.S. Debtors anticipate commencing the solicitation period
within five days after the Disclosure Statement is approved.  To
be counted as a vote to accept or reject the Plan, each Ballot
must be properly executed, completed, and delivered to
Bankruptcy Services, LLC, the Debtors' solicitation and
tabulation agent, so as to be received no later than 4:00 p.m.
on February 17, 2005.

                    Vote Tabulation Procedure

Solely for purposes of voting to accept or reject the Plan and
not for the purpose of the allowance of, or distribution on
account of, a claim, each holder of a claim within a class
entitled to vote on the Plan will be entitled to vote the amount
of its claim as set forth in the Schedules unless the holder has
timely filed a proof of claim, in which event that holder would
be entitled to vote the amount of the claim as set forth in the
proof of claim.

The Voting Procedure will be subject to these exceptions:

   (a) If a claim is deemed allowed under the Plan, that claim
       is allowed for voting purposes in the deemed allowed
       amount set forth under the Plan, including the claims of
       insiders, but only for the purposes of voting to accept
       or reject the Plan;

   (b) If a claim for which a proof of claim has been timely
       filed is, by its terms, contingent or unliquidated in
       whole or in part, that claim is accorded one vote valued
       at $1.00 for voting purposes only, and not for purposes
       of allowance or distribution;

   (c) If a claim has been estimated or otherwise allowed for
       voting purposes by a Court order, that claims is
       temporarily allowed in the amount so estimated or allowed
       by the Court for voting purposes only, and not for
       purposes of allowance or distribution;

   (d) If a claim is listed in the Schedules and a proof of
       claim subsequently is filed in an amount that is
       liquidated, non-contingent and undisputed, the claim is
       temporarily allowed in the amount set forth on the proof
       of claim, unless each claim is disputed.

   (e) If a claim is listed in the Schedules as contingent or
       unliquidated and a proof of claim was not (i) filed by
       the applicable bar date or (ii) deemed timely filed by a
       Court order prior to the Voting Deadline, unless the
       Debtors consent in writing, that claim is disallowed for
       voting purposes;

   (f) A claim will be temporarily disallowed for voting
       purposes only and not for purposes of allowance or
       distribution if:

       -- a claim is listed in the Schedules as disputed;

       -- if a claim for which a proof of claim has been timely
          filed is, by its terms, disputed; or

       -- the Debtors have served an objection, complaint or
          request for estimation as to a claim at least 10 days
          before the Voting Deadline,

       except to the extent and in the manner as may be set
       forth in the objection, complaint for estimation.

   (g) Each entity that holds or has filed more than one
       unsecured claim against a particular Debtor will not be
       entitled to aggregate those unsecured claims for purposes
       of voting, classification and treatment under the Plan;

   (h) The Voting Agent, in its discretion, may contact voters
       to cure any defects in the Ballots and is authorized to
       so cure any defects; and

   (i) There will be a rebuttable presumption that any claimant
       who submits a properly completed superseding Ballot or
       withdrawal of Ballot on or before the Voting Deadline has
       sufficient cause, within the meaning of Bankruptcy Rule
       3018(a), to change or withdraw that claimant's acceptance
       or rejection of the Plan.

Whenever a creditor casts more than one Ballot voting the same
claims before the Voting Deadline, the last Ballot received
before the Voting Deadline be deemed to reflect the voter's
intent and, thus, to supersede any prior Ballots.  Creditors
must vote all of their claims within a particular class under
the Plan, either to accept or reject the Plan, and may not split
their vote.

These Ballots will not be counted or considered for any purpose
in determining whether the Plan has been accepted or rejected:

   (a) Any Ballot that is properly completed, executed, and
       timely returned to the Debtors' Voting Agent, but does
       not indicate an acceptance or rejection of the Plan, or
       that indicates both an acceptance and rejection of the
       Plan;

   (b) Any Ballot received after the Voting Deadline unless the
       Debtors will have granted in writing an extension of the
       Voting deadline with respect to that Ballot;

   (c) Any Ballot that is illegible or contains insufficient
       information to permit the identification of the claimant;

   (d) Any Ballot cast by a person or entity that does not hold
       a claim in a class that is entitled to vote to accept or
       reject the Plan; and

   (e) Any Ballot transmitted to the Debtors' Voting Agent by
       facsimile or other electronic means.

                       Rule 3018(a) Motions

Any creditor seeking to challenge the allowance of its claim for
voting purposes must file a motion for an order pursuant to
Bankruptcy Rule 3018(a) temporarily allowing that claim in a
different amount for purposes of voting to accept or reject the
Plan on or before the 10th day after the later of the date of
(i) service of the Confirmation Hearing Notice and (ii) service
of notice of an objection or request for estimation, if any, as
to that claim.

The U.S. Debtors propose that, as to any creditor filing a 3018
Motion, that creditor's Ballot will not be counted unless
temporarily allowed by a Court order entered at least five days
before the Voting Deadline.

                       Confirmation Hearing

The U.S. Debtors ask Judge Drain to set the hearing on the
confirmation of their Plan on March 1, 2005.  The Confirmation
Hearing may be continued from time to time by the Court or the
U.S. Debtors without further notice other than adjournments
announced in open court.

Objections to the confirmation of the Plan or proposed
modifications to the Plan must filed and served no later than
4:00 p.m. on February 18, 2005.  Objections must:

   (a) be in writing;

   (b) state the name and address of the objecting party and the
       amount and nature of the claim or interest of that party;
       and

   (c) state with particularity the basis and nature of any
       objection to the Plan.

The proposed timing for service of objections and proposed
modifications, the Debtors believe, will afford them and other
significant parties-in-interest sufficient time to consider the
objections and proposed modifications and file any replies while
leaving the Court sufficient time to consider the objections and
replies before the Confirmation Hearing.

MILLICOM INTERNATIONAL: Subscribers Increased 36% in 2004
---------------------------------------------------------
Millicom International Cellular S.A. announces that it has added
859,968 net new subscribers in the fourth quarter to reach 7.7
million total cellular subscribers by the year-end.

Proportional subscribers reached 5.3 million.  Subscriber growth
has continued to accelerate in 2004 with record underlying net
subscribers additions in the last three quarters.  At the end of
December 2004 Millicom saw a 12.6% increase in total subscribers
from the previous quarter and a 36% increase from December 2003.

Marc Beuls, President and CEO of Millicom International Cellular
S.A. said: "Subscriber growth was particularly strong in Vietnam
following the price reductions earlier in the year which have
stimulated demand for mobile services.  The launch of GSM
services in Latin America and Pakistan have added to the
attractions of Millicom's offering in these markets and this
roll out has been backed by increased marketing initiatives, by
way of re-branding to Tigo in Latin America, and an attractive
offering for Paktel GSM customers in Pakistan.  Millicom's
operations in Pakistan passed the 1 million subscriber mark in
December 2004.  In Africa we continue to see the benefit of
investment in the network where our coverage increased
substantially in 2004 and the 1 million subscriber mark was
exceeded in the fourth quarter."

Millicom International Cellular S.A. (Nasdaq:MICC)
(Stockholmsborsen and Luxembourg Stock Exchange:MIC) is a global
telecommunications investor with cellular operations in Asia,
Latin America and Africa.  It currently has a total of 16
cellular operations and licenses in 15 countries.  The Group's
cellular operations have a combined population under license of
approximately 387 million people.

                            *    *    *

In November, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'B-
' senior unsecured debt rating to the proposed US$175 million to
US$200 million convertible bond offering by Millicom.  At the
same time Standard & Poor's affirmed its 'B+' long-term
corporate credit rating and remaining 'B-' senior unsecured debt
ratings on Millicom.  The outlook remains negative

ROYAL AHOLD: U.S. Court Absolves Former Auditor
-----------------------------------------------
The U.S. District Court in Maryland cleared auditors Deloitte of
'recklessness' and 'negligence' in handling the accounts of
Royal Ahold, Accountancy Age says.

Ahold's U.S. shareholders claimed Deloitte neglected its role as
the retailer's auditor when GBP2 billion in accounting
irregularities in the group and subsidiary U.S. Foodservice were
discovered.

The Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeal has
ordered a probe into Ahold's accounting irregularities, which
covered the period from January 1, 1998 to December 18, 2003.
The inquiry was launched following a request by Vereniging van
Effectenbezitters (VEB) and several other shareholders.  The
inquiry is focusing on Ahold's consolidation of joint ventures,
acquisition of subsidiary U.S. Foodservice and the supervision
of the organization and operation of internal controls of the
group's subsidiaries.

ROYAL SHELL: Sells California Refinery for Undisclosed Sum
----------------------------------------------------------
Royal Dutch/Shell Group has struck a deal to dispose of its
Bakersfield, Calif. refinery three months after its supposed
closure.

Shell Oil, a unit of Royal Dutch/Shell Group, agreed to sell the
facility to Flying J Inc., North America's largest retail diesel
distributor, for an undisclosed sum.  Sources say the
transaction was worth about US$130 million.

Flying J is a closely held Utah-based integrated oil company.
Its subsidiary, Big West Oil LLC, will operate the plant after
the sale is closed, most likely in the first quarter.  The deal
is still subject to regulatory approval.

Shell planned to close the refinery in October because of
declining crude-oil production.  But California Attorney General
Bill Lockyer, among other state and federal officials, raised
questions, prompting regulatory investigations.  Mr. Lockyer was
encouraged by a report from a consulting firm saying the plant
could be run profitably or viably sold.

The refinery produces 70,000 barrels a day and provides 2% of
California's gasoline and 6% of its diesel supply -- a
significant amount in a state where supply and demand are seldom
in balance, according to the report.

The deal came as growing world demand for products made from
crude oil, and the limited refining capacity of the U.S., have
buoyed fuel prices.


TELEPLAN INTERNATIONAL: Completes Financial Restructuring
---------------------------------------------------------
A crucial part of the restructuring agreement signed and
announced ad-hoc on December 23, 2004 was the subscription to
new issues of both equity capital and convertible bonds out of
the authorized capital of Teleplan International N.V.  All
securities mentioned in the agreement have now been issued
through a private placement.

The securities were purchased by a group of lenders coordinated
by ABN AMRO Bank N.V. and a group of investors consisting of
Sterling Investment Group Limited, Cycladic Capital Management
Limited and Fortune Management.  Through the issue, Teleplan
International N.V. has realized a cash injection of EUR14.0
million and will -- after full conversion of existing loans --
benefit from a debt into equity swap of EUR19.7 million versus
yearend 2004 Balance Sheet.

The total number of new common shares of Teleplan International
N.V. issued was 7,380,951 at EUR1.40 each, equaling the amount
of EUR10,333,331.40.  Cash proceeds to the company were
EUR4,333,331.80, with the difference of EUR5,999,999.60
consisting of a debt/equity swap.

The total number of convertible zero bonds of Teleplan
International N.V. issued was 19,666,667 for EUR1.00 each
equaling the amount of EUR19,666,667.

Cash proceeds to the company were EUR9,666,667, with the
difference of EUR10,000,000 consisting of a debt/equity swap.
The total number of common shares outstanding is now 32,219,619,
each nominally amounting to EUR0.25.  All shares carry the ISIN
number NL0000229458.  The new zero bonds are not publicly
listed.  They carry a nominal value of EUR1.00 and the right to
purchase 1 new common share of Teleplan International N.V. at a
price of EUR0.90 starting from November 1, 2005.

The number of common shares of Teleplan International N.V.
outstanding after full conversion will therefore be 54,071,471.
The total amount of authorized capital unanimously approved by
the most recent extraordinary shareholders meeting on December
10, 2004 was EUR14,500,000 divided into 58,000,000 shares, each
nominally amounting to EUR0.25.

Rolf Huber, Chief Executive Officer of Teleplan, highly
appreciates the commitment of the lenders and investors
participating in the financial restructuring: "Our lenders and
investors clearly document their firm belief in the business
model and prosperous future of Teleplan.  This support gives us
additional confidence to successfully implement our
comprehensive restructuring program."

Gotthard Haug, Chief Financial Officer, adds: "With the
restructuring on the operational side running on schedule we now
also have the financial cushion to finance the accompanied
measures without unacceptable financial strain.  We are in the
strong position to provide excellent service to our customers
and at the same time set the prerequisites for a profitable
future."

A full-text copy of Fulbright & Jaworski's First Supplemental

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Yukos Oil Company --
http://www.yukos.com/-- is an open joint stock company existing

enjoy certain rights to oil and gas production, refining and
marketing assets.  The Company filed for chapter 11 protection
on Dec. 14, 2004 (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Case No. 04-47742).  Zack A.

A. Barrett, Esq., Johnathan C. Bolton, Esq., R. Andrew Black,
Esq., Fulbright & Jaworski, LLP, represent the Debtor in its

YUKOS OIL: Khodorkovsky No Longer Controls Menatep Shares
---------------------------------------------------------
Mikhail Khodorkovsky, the former chief of Yukos Oil, told the
court on Wednesday he has already relinquished control of the
firm's biggest shareholder.

Reports say Mr. Khodorkovsky passed the 59.5% stake he has in
Group Menatep to Leonid Nevzilin, one of his closest allies, who
is now outside the country.  Group Menatep controls 61% of Yukos
and manages another 10% through the Veteran Petroleum Trust.

"I was relieved of responsibility for the remaining business and
the money of the Group after Yuganskneftegaz was sold," he was
quoted as saying.

Yugansk was sold in a controversial auction in December to pay
Yukos' huge tax debt.  The government has accused the firm of
skirting the law, and is suing Mr. Khodorkovsky for fraud, tax
evasion and stealing of 20% of shares in Apatit company.  On
Wednesday, the counsel for defense started examining witnesses
in relation to the case.

The Moscow Times says it was unclear whether Mr. Khodorkovsky is
still the beneficiary of the shares, but a source said Mr.
Nevzlin, has the full rights to use the shares.  Another person
close to the situation said if Mr. Khodorkovsky has not yet
fully transferred beneficial ownership of the shares, he may
likely do so in the near future.

CLARKS: Abandons Remaining U.K. Factory
---------------------------------------
Around 90 employees of Clarks will be jobless by April when it
shuts down its last U.K. shoe factory in Ilminister, Somerset,
according to just-style.com.

The closure has become necessary, according to the company,
which cited the rising production cost in the U.K. as the
primary reason for the decision.  The company has decided to
move operations to the Far East where production cost is
cheaper.

Established more than 175 years ago, Clarks gradually outsourced
jobs to China, India and Romania 15 years ago.  In recent years,
as labor cost in the U.K. became uncompetitive, Clarks laid off
thousands of employees in the southwest of England.

ENODIS PLC: S&P Lifts Ratings to 'BB', 'B+'; Outlook Stable
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its long-term
corporate credit rating on U.K.-based food-service equipment
maker Enodis PLC to 'BB' from 'BB-' following an improvement in
the group's financial profile.  The outlook is stable.

At the same time, Standard & Poor's raised its subordinated debt
rating on the group to 'B+' from 'B'.

"The rating actions reflect Standard & Poor's belief that
Enodis' financial profile has improved through a gradual but
consistent reduction in leverage," said Standard & Poor's credit
analyst Jarrad Oberhardt.  "The group's financial risk profile
has also benefited from a renegotiated banking facility, which
eliminates strict covenant and amortization requirements and
enhances flexibility through the provision of funding lines on
more favorable terms."

The one-notch upgrade reflects Enodis' demonstrated progress in
successfully reducing its financial indebtedness since ratings
were first assigned in 2002.  This has resulted from positive
free operating cash flows supplemented by the proceeds of non-
strategic asset disposals and a modest equity issue.  Net debt
(adjusted for operating leases and pensions) has been reduced to
its current level of GBP154 million (US$288 million), from
GBP443 million at Sept. 30, 2001.  Furthermore, we anticipate
that the group's reduced leverage is maintainable.  The group's
cash-protection metrics also benefit from the reduced leverage.

Enodis' industry conditions -- notably the level of competition,
fragmentation, and volatility of demand -- are not expected to
change significantly in the near-term.  "Over the course of
2005, we further anticipate that the group will face further
challenges in the form of increased raw material costs and
unfavorable foreign-exchange movements," said Mr. Oberhardt.

"Although these factors have the likely potential to negate any
benefit of increased activity in North America, the group's
lower absolute debt levels are expected to result in debt-
protection measures that are consistent with the rating
category."

Standard & Poor's recognizes the potential that Enodis might be
liable for up to US$53 million in compensation under an adverse
legal judgment, which is currently under appeal.  Should this
eventuate, Standard and Poor's anticipates a modest short-term
impact on the group's debt-protection measures.

MYTRAVEL GROUP: Proposes to Reorganize Share Capital
----------------------------------------------------
Following the successful completion of its consensual
restructuring, MyTravel Group plc now has three classes of share
capital:

  * Ordinary shares of 10p
    (ISIN GB0000109792, Reuters: MT.L, Bloomberg: MT/LN)

  * A ordinary shares of 1p
    (ISIN GB00B054QP30, Reuters: MTa.L, Bloomberg: MT/S LN)

  * Convertible shares of 1p
    (ISIN GB0033489013, Reuters: MT_p.L, Bloomberg: MT/LN and
     press F7)

Convertible shares of 1p are convertible in certain
circumstances into A ordinary shares.  However, ordinary shares
of 10p and A ordinary shares are classes, which have identical
rights but are technically distinct, so that shares of one class
cannot be used to settle a trade in the other class.

MyTravel on Wednesday announces that it intends to propose
resolutions to effect a reorganization of its share capital no
later than its Annual General Meeting to be held on 31 March
2005.  This reorganization is intended to simplify the capital
structure.  It will:

  * Constitute a single class of ordinary shares out of the
existing ordinary shares of 10p nominal amount and A ordinary
shares of 1p nominal amount, each class of ordinary shares being
treated pari passu with the other for this purpose.

  * Make equivalent changes to the terms for the conversion of
convertible shares into new ordinary shares, and to the terms of
the warrants to subscribe for ordinary shares of 10p.

  * Reduce the total number of shares in issue, resulting in a
more appropriate trading price range.

The reorganization will be conditional on and will require the
passing of a special resolution of the shareholders (on which
both ordinary and A ordinary shareholders will be eligible to
vote) and a separate approval by the holders of ordinary shares
as a separate class.  The modification of the terms of the
warrants will require approval by extraordinary resolution at a
meeting of warrantholders.

                            *   *   *

Following the completion of its financial restructuring MyTravel
Group plc has these equity securities in issue:

(A) Ordinary Shares (10p nominal value)

    * 544,461,136 shares in issue.


(B) A Ordinary Shares (1p nominal value)

    * 4,097,338,932 shares issued and up to a further
      1,088,922,272 shares may be issued on conversion of the 7%
      subordinated convertible bonds due 2007 issued by the
      company.

   * A ordinary shares have the same rights as, and rank pari
     passu with, each existing ordinary share, including voting,
     dividend and rights on a winding up.

   * The A ordinary shares are not fungible with the ordinary
     shares of 10p.

(C) Convertible shares (1p nominal value)

   * 7,880,806,060 shares issued and up to a further
     1,088,922,272 shares may be issued on conversion of the 7%
     subordinated convertible bonds due 2007 issued by the
     company.


   * Technically these are non-voting non-cumulative preference
     shares with a fixed dividend of 1% of the nominal amount
     (i.e. 1p). The convertible shares have been issued in order
     that the company can continue to comply with the E.U.
     regulations that apply to its airline operating license.
     These require that the company must be majority owned and
     effectively controlled by EEA nationals at all times.

   * Convertible Shares are in certain circumstances convertible
     into A ordinary shares.

(D) Warrants

The company has in issue warrants to subscribe for 65,764,552
existing ordinary shares.  Warrants in respect of 37,459,354
shares have been listed and are exercisable.  Warrants in
respect of 28,305,198 shares have not yet been listed but an
offer to exchange these warrants for new listed warrants will be
made shortly.  The reorganization will require the modification
of the terms of the warrants to ensure that the existing
exercise price of 10p per ordinary share is appropriately
adjusted to reflect the reorganization.  This modification will
require approval by extraordinary resolution at a meeting of
warrantholders.

arrangements may be found on the company's Web site at

STODDARD INTERNATIONAL: Cuts Staff to Stay Afloat
-------------------------------------------------
The receivers of carpet manufacturer Stoddard International have
axed over half of the company's staff in an effort to save it
from liquidation, The Scotsman reports.

Stoddard filed for receivership last week with GBP9 million in
debt.  Receivers Tom Burton and Colin Dempster from Ernst &
Young are currently trying to find a buyer for the business.
They already received several interests, but would like to have
concrete offers on hand.

In the meantime, they made 266 workers redundant and have kept
90 for only two weeks more.  There are no immediate plans to
dismiss the remaining 120, but the receivers said they could not
guarantee their jobs.

Meanwhile, even if a buyer is found, the future of the firm's
pension scheme remains uncertain.  The 1,750-membered fund
closed to new entrants last year with a deficit of GBP35
million.  A sale of the company will have no effect on it.

Ian Gordon, the representative of the pension fund trustees,
explained: "Any transaction the receiver does will be for the
business and its assets [alone]."

According to him, the scheme would be "left standing on its own"
in the event of a takeover or liquidation.  It may ask help from
the industry-funded Pension Protection Fund (PPF), but that
depends on whether the firm survives beyond April.  Rules
dictate that only those companies, which filed for insolvency
after April this year will qualify for the program.  Should
Stoddard go bust before April, the scheme will have to make do
with the Finance Assistance Scheme (FAS) -- a temporary
government reserve, which is thought to be under-funded.
