> TIBA DVUR: Court Appoints S. Kuzela as Bankruptcy Administrator
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
> The Hradec Kralove Regional Court declared iba Dvur Kralove nad
> Labem bankrupt and appointed Stanilav Kuzelam as bankruptcy
> administrator, the Prague Daily Monitor reports.
>
> The company, which has 550 employees, lists over 1,000 creditors
> with claims amounting to nearly CZK600 million (EUR21 million),
> the report says.
>
> Tiba had proposed an out-of-court settlement in June 2006;
> however, its creditors rejected the proposal in January, driving
> the company to the brink of bankruptcy, the Prague Daily Monitor
> relates.
>
> According to the report, the company insists that all of the
> applications to declare it bankrupt filed from May 2003 until
> the end of 2005 were unjustifiable and were all based on
> questionable claims.
>
> "Although [Tiba's] board of directors and management are
> convinced that [out-of-court] settlement gives creditors greater
> guarantee of the settlement of their claims and enables to
> maintain production and employment in the region, the proposal
> for settlement had not been accepted," Tiba said in a statement
> sent to the Czech News Agency.
>
> According to the statement, the company can comply with the
> creditors' claims as long as it maintains its present
> production.
>
> "But if production winds up immediately . . . most assets will
> at once lose most of their current value," Tiba added in its
> statement.
>
> Tiba reported a CZK225 million (EUR8 million) loss in 2005 and
> has laid off more than half of its 1,200 employees since then,
> the Prague Daily Monitor states.
>
> Zdenek Smid, head of the regional employment office, has
> expressed his desire to discuss the future of all Tiba employees
> with Mr. Kuzelam in March, the Prague Daily Monitor reveals.

> Based in Dvur Kralove nad Labem, Tiba Dvur Kralove nad Labem --

> ALCATEL-LUCENT: Job Cuts to Affect Research & Development Unit
> --------------------------------------------------------------
> Alcatel-Lucent will decrease the workforce of its Research and
> Development department as part of its company-wide plan to shed
> 12,500 jobs and cut costs, Bloomberg News reports.
>
> "We have to participate, at least to a certain extent, in the
> company's cost-reduction efforts," Olivier Baujard, Alcatel-
> Lucent's Chief Technology Officer, told Bloomberg News.
>
> Mr. Baujard, however, noted that Alcatel-Lucent's R&D unit,
> which employs around 23,000 people, would still hire researchers
> despite the jobs cuts.
>
> In a TCR-Europe report on Feb. 13, Alcatel-Lucent said some
> 3,500 workers will be laid off on top of the 9,000 originally
> disclosed by the company following the Alcatel-Lucent merger.
> The increase in job cuts came after the combined company
> reported a EUR618 million net loss on EUR4.42 billion in net
> revenues for the fourth quarter 2006. The figures reflect the
> first for which the newly merged telecommunications-equipment
> maker reported combined earnings, the Wall Street Journal
> reported.
>
> Alcatel-Lucent CEO Patricia Russo said the company is leveraging
> the integration of Alcatel S.A. and Lucent Technologies to
> create a more competitive enterprise over the long term and
> enhance its operating model to enable greater efficiencies in
> operations. The chief executive said the company aims to
> optimize its supply chain and services, eliminate of duplicate
> resources, and rationalize its product. Ms. Russo added the
> company could save as much as EUR1.7 billion in pre-tax cost
> within three years, with at least EUR600 million for 2007.

> ------------------------------------------------------------
> DaimlerChrysler AG and General Motors Corp. are in talks about a

>
> According to various news agencies, DaimlerChrysler hired
> JPMorgan for advice regarding strategic alternatives.
>
> In a TCR report on Feb. 15, DaimlerChrysler Chairman of the

> optimize and accelerate the presented plan, we are looking into
> further strategic options with partners.... In this regard, we
> do not exclude any option in order to find the best solution for

>
> GM and DaimlerChrysler AG's Chrysler Group are also in talks of
> an alliance to share costs of chassis designs and reduce
> development expenses for a large sport utility vehicle, Jeff
> Green and Jeff Bennett of Bloomberg report citing people
> familiar with the talks.

> About General Motors Corp.
>
> General Motors Corp. (NYSE: GM) -- http://www.gm.com/-- is the
> world's largest automaker and has been the global industry sales
> leader since 1931. Founded in 1908, GM employs about 284,000
> people around the world. It has manufacturing operations in 33
> countries and its vehicles are sold in 200 countries. GM sells
> cars and trucks under these brands: Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet,
> GMC, GM Daewoo, Holden, HUMMER, Opel, Pontiac, Saab, Saturn and
> Vauxhall.
>
> About DaimlerChrysler
>
> Based in Stuttgart, Germany, DaimlerChrysler AG --
> http://www.daimlerchrysler.com/-- develops, manufactures,
> distributes, and sells various automotive products, primarily
> passenger cars, light trucks, and commercial vehicles worldwide.
> It primarily operates in four segments: Mercedes Car Group,
> Chrysler Group, Commercial Vehicles, and Financial Services.
>
> The Chrysler Group segment offers cars and minivans, pick-up
> trucks, sport utility vehicles, and vans under the Chrysler,
> Jeep, and Dodge brand names. It also sells parts and
> accessories under the MOPAR brand.
>
> The Chrysler Group is facing a difficult market environment in
> the United States with excess inventory, non-competitive legacy
> costs for employees and retirees, continuing high fuel prices
> and a stronger shift in demand toward smaller vehicles. At the
> same time, key competitors have further increased margin and
> volume pressures -- particularly on light trucks -- by making
> significant price concessions. In addition, increased interest
> rates caused higher sales & marketing expenses.
>
> In order to improve the earnings situation of the Chrysler Group
> as quickly and comprehensively, measures to increase sales and
> cut costs in the short term are being examined at all stages of
> the value chain, in addition to structural changes being
> reviewed as well.

> SMURFIT KAPPA: S&P Keeps B+ Ratings on CreditWatch
> --------------------------------------------------
> Standard & Poor's Ratings Services is maintaining its credit
> ratings, including its 'B+' long-term corporate credit rating,
> on Ireland-based paper and packaging company Smurfit Kappa Group
> Ltd. and related entities on CreditWatch with positive
> implications.
>
> Subject to a successful completion of the group's announced
> EUR1.3 billion IPO to be used for repayments of part of its high
> cost debt, the corporate credit rating on Smurfit Kappa will be
> raised by one notch to 'BB-' with subsequent one notch uplifts
> for the secured and unsecured debt ratings. The recovery rating
> is expected to remain unchanged.
>
> "A successful IPO and subsequent debt repayments, including
> repayment of the group's about EUR500 million PIK notes, will
> materially improve Smurfit Kappa's financial profile, although
> it should be noted that the current credit measures are very
> weak for the existing ratings," said Standard & Poor's
> credit analyst Alf Stenqvist.
>
> At the end of December 2006, Smurfit Kappa had adjusted debt of
> about EUR5.8 billion.
>
> At the new rating level, the ratings on Smurfit Kappa and its
> related entities will reflect the group's improved financial
> position, despite a still aggressive financial profile, as well
> as cyclical industry conditions. These risk factors are
> balanced by the group's satisfactory business risk profile,
> which is supported by its leading position in the European
> containerboard and corrugated board markets, good geographical
> diversification, and high level of forward integrated
> operations.

> Italy's Ministry of Economy and Finance invited interested
> parties to submit a non-binding offer for around 30.1% to 49.9%
> of Alitalia's capital and 1,207,147,404 convertible bonds of the
> carrier's 7.5% 2002-2010 debenture loan. The sale will take
> place through a competitive procedure involving direct
> negotiations with potential buyers.
>
> According to the Ministry, potential buyers will be selected
> based on the economic terms of the offers received and an
> analysis of the business plans. The Ministry will also examine
> the compatibility of the offers and business plans with
> Alitalia's restructuring, development and relaunch objectives.
>
> The Ministry also outlined mandatory commitments for the buyer
> to:
>
> -- keep at least a 30.1% stake in Alitalia until the business
> plan is successfully carried out:
>
> -- safeguard Alitalia's national identity; and
>
> -- guarantee the quality and quantity of services offered and
> coverage of the territory.
>
> Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa, Italy's Finance Minister, said the buyer
> for the government's stake would be selected based on its
> proposed industrial plan for the troubled carrier, Agenzia
> Giornalistica Italia reports.
>
> "Alitalia is not a commodity whose value is exclusively
> determined by its price, it is not only about putting it out on
> the market, but trying to find an entrepreneur with an
> industrial plan which is able to develop the agency," Mr. Padoa-
> Schioppa said.
>
> "Price is only one of the conditions we will evaluate and it's
> not the most important," Mr. Padoa-Schioppa was quoted by
> Bloomberg News as saying. "We will examine the more qualitative
> aspects of the offers even before looking at the price."
>
> Mr. Padoa-Schioppia noted that Alitalia's privatization "does
> not mean giving up a national airliner," adding that the process
> was aimed at "pursuing national interest."
>
> "This is explained by the decision made by government and agreed
> upon by the market, the company and the trade unions, that it is
> now time that Alitalia be managed by entrepreneurial criteria
> and decisions," Mr. Padoa-Schioppia said.

> ----------------------------------------------------------------
> The Italian government has decided to replace Giancarlo Cimoli

> writes for the Wall Street Journal.
>
> The government, represented by the Treasury Ministry,

> Alitalia's by-laws require that the board comprise three to five

>
> The carrier's unions have been calling for Mr. Cimoli's exit

>
> This is a further significant step towards an integrated

>
> The agreement, which calls for a Tata license to build a pick-up
> vehicle bearing the Fiat nameplate at Fiat Group Automobiles'
> plant in Cordoba, Argentina, follows a feasibility study started
> in July 2006. The first vehicles will roll off the Cordoba
> assembly lines during 2008. Annual production is slated at

> around US$80million.
>
> With the production of the pick-up model, the Fiat complex in
> Cordoba will retake the integral activity of all its productive
> units, to a great extent reinitiated with the manufacture of
> Fiat engines and gearboxes and the recent agreement to produce
> gearboxes for PSA Peugeot-Citroen.
>
> The pick-up, based on the new generation Tata pick-up truck,
> will be sold in South and Central America and select European
> markets through Fiat Automobiles' distribution and importer

> the medium pick-up sector, thanks to Tata Motors' specific know-

>
> The Fiat pick-up, powered by an FPT engine, will be styled and

> powered by a JTD diesel 2.3 litres, 134 PS Euro IV engine,
> manufactured in Fiat Powertrain Technology's facility in Sete
> Lagoas, Brazil.
>
> Tata Motors considers Latin America as an important market and

>
> "This agreement is a further step in the building of a large,

> Group and of Fiat Group Automobiles said. "[This agreement]
> will allow Fiat to enter a specific car segment with a very

>
> "This is a positive development and will help Tata Motors to get

> ELEKTROWNIA TUROW: Fitch Lifts Ratings to B on Government's Plan
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
> Fitch Ratings upgraded Poland-based BOT Elektrownia Turow S.A.'s
> senior secured debt rating to 'B' from 'B-'. The Outlook has
> been changed to Positive from Evolving. At the same time,
> Elektrownia Turow B.V.'s EUR270 million guaranteed secured bond
> maturing in 2011 has also been upgraded to 'B' from 'B-'.
>
> The upgrade reflects the increasing probability of a positive
> outcome for ET's creditors relating to the Polish government's
> plan for early termination of PPAs. ET's PPA with the state-
> owned transmission grid company Polskie Sieci
> Elektroenergetyczne S.A. constitutes a security for most of ET's
> debt.
>
> Fitch notes the Polish government's plan to link voluntary early
> termination of PPAs with the domestic power sector
> consolidation, so that financially stronger entities within the
> power companies may support highly leveraged generators such as
> ET. The latter, which is now part of the BOT Gornictwo i
> Energetyka S.A. group, may be consolidated into the larger
> vertically integrated Polska Grupa Energetyczna. Fitch expects
> that either BOT or PGE are likely to support ET in its debt
> repayment in a scenario that calls for early PPA termination.
> The agency notes the improved position of Polish power plants'
> creditors in relation to the PPA termination plans, after the
> draft act on compensation rules for generators calls for
> creditors' consent to any PPA cancellation.
>
> The upgrade additionally reflects ET's improving credit metrics
> given its steady de-leveraging since its debt-financed
> modernization program was completed in early 2005. The 2.1-GW
> ET power plant is currently the most modern lignite-fired plant
> in the country. The upgrade also reflects the strategic
> importance of ET's assets in view of expected tight supply of
> power generation assets in the next 10 years in Poland amid
> growing demand for electricity and aging generation assets.
>
> The Positive Outlook reflects the fact that according to Fitch's
> analysis, most likely scenarios for ET are expected to lead to a
> rating upgrade. Under the draft act, if ET terminates its PPA
> early, it will receive a total compensation for stranded costs
> of PLN2.57bn in quarterly payments until 2016. If ET becomes
> part of the vertically integrated PGE group, it will not receive
> any compensation since the government and European Commission
> assume that stronger entities in the group should support ET.
>
> The 'B' rating reflects ET's high leverage, tight debt service
> coverage ratio and need for support in case its PPA is
> terminated. It should be noted that the government's plan may
> be subject to delays or changes given the number of failed
> attempts to cancel PPAs since 1998.
>
> Fitch also notes that the PPA of ET is not part of the EC
> investigation on prohibited state aid, because it was signed in
> August 1994, i.e. before the EU Treaty became effective in
> Poland in December 1994. Therefore, ET's PPA may not
> necessarily be challenged by the EC even if the latter concludes
> that other PPAs in Poland are regarded as prohibited state aid.

>
> As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Feb. 8, Mark D.

>
> Specifically, Focus is expected to:
>
> (a) prepare and, from time to time, update cash flow

> ADVANCED MARKETING: Panel Objects to Capstone as Advisor
> --------------------------------------------------------
> The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors in Advanced
> Marketing Services Inc. and its debtor-affiliates' Chapter 11
> cases and Kelly Beaudin Stapleton, the U.S. Trustee for Region
> 3, object to the Debtors' request to retain Capstone Advisory
> Group LLC as their financial advisors.
>
> "The Debtors have not demonstrated the need to retain Capstone
> as an investment banker," Thomas F. Driscoll III, Esq., at
> Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell LLP, in Wilmington, Delaware,
> tells the United States Court for the District of Delaware.
>
> Representing the Committee, Mr. Driscoll contends that
> Capstone's services may be duplicative of those performed by the
> Debtors' other professionals.
>
> Rather than deplete the Debtors' limited resources by engaging
> Capstone to assist Houlihan, Lokey, Howard & Zukin Capital,
> Inc., in its efforts to market and refinance the Debtors, the
> Committee argues that the Debtors, with the help of their other
> professionals, could adequately perform those services.
>
> Also, Capstone is not an investment banker but a financial
> advisor and should not be entitled to any Success Fees, Mr.
> Driscoll tells Judge Christopher S. Sontchi. The Committee
> believes that Capstone should be compensated for actual work
> done and actual value provided; Capstone should not receive a
> windfall at the expense of the unsecured creditor body.
>
> "The Court must condition Capstone's retention upon a review of
> Capstone's fees and expenses pursuant to Section 330 of the
> Bankruptcy Code so that the Court, the Committee, the Office of
> the United States Trustee and other parties-in-interest may
> submit any appropriate objections to such fees and expenses,"
> Mr. Driscoll explains.
>
> Capstone "should provide hourly rates for its professionals,"
> Ms. Stapleton tells the Court.
>
> Certain terms and provisions of the Indemnification Provisions
> contained in The Capstone Agreements and the Application are
> likewise overly broad and must be revised, Mr. Driscoll points
> out.
>
> As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Feb. 7, the
> Debtors sought to employ Capstone to:
>
> (a) analyze and challenge the Debtors' short-term and long-
> term cash flow forecasts;
>
> (b) assist management, as appropriate, in developing
> corresponding liquidity analysis;
>
> (c) analyze the Debtors' business plan and any alternative
> business plans suggested by the Debtors;
>
> (d) assist the Debtors and their advisors in identifying and
> evaluating strategic financial and restructuring
> alternatives;
>
> (e) support or assist investment banks of the Debtors in
> their efforts to sell or restructure the business entity;
>
> (f) act as a liaison between the Debtors and their investment

>
> (g) assist in providing data and information requested by
> Houlihan, Lokey, Howard & Zukin Capital, Inc., in its
> efforts to market and refinance the Debtors;
>
> (h) assist Houlihan Lokey in its efforts to market or
> refinance the Debtors;
>
> (i) assist Houlihan, Lokey in identifying and executing an
> alternative transaction that best meets the objectives of
> the Debtors' and their estates; and
>
> (j) perform other tasks as may be requested by the Debtors
> from time to time.
>
> Capstone has provided services to the Debtors since May 2006.

> Representing the Debtors, Mark D. Collins, Esq., at Richards,

> GENERAL MOTORS: In Talks on Possible Purchase of Chrysler Group
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
> DaimlerChrysler AG and General Motors Corp. are in talks about a
> possible purchase of the Chrysler Group by GM, according to
> German publication Manager Magazin.
>
> According to various news agencies, DaimlerChrysler hired
> JPMorgan for advice regarding strategic alternatives.
>
> In a TCR report Feb. 15, DaimlerChrysler Chairman of the Board
> of Management Dr. Dieter Zetsche said, "... in order to optimize
> and accelerate the presented plan, we are looking into further
> strategic options with partners.... In this regard, we do not
> exclude any option in order to find the best solution for both
> the Chrysler Group and DaimlerChrysler."
>
> GM and DaimlerChrysler AG's Chrysler Group are also in talks of
> an alliance to share costs of chassis designs and reduce
> development expenses for a large sport utility vehicle, Jeff
> Green and Jeff Bennett of Bloomberg report citing people
> familiar with the talks.
>
> GM and the Chrysler Group have been discussing the matter for
> six months without reaching an agreement, the Wall Street
> Journal notes.
>
> About General Motors Corp.
>
> General Motors Corp. (NYSE: GM) -- http://www.gm.com/-- is the
> world's largest automaker and has been the global industry sales
> leader since 1931. Founded in 1908, GM employs about 284,000
> people around the world. It has manufacturing operations in 33
> countries and its vehicles are sold in 200 countries. GM sells
> cars and trucks under these brands: Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet,
> GMC, GM Daewoo, Holden, HUMMER, Opel, Pontiac, Saab, Saturn and

>
> About DaimlerChrysler
>
> Based in Stuttgart, Germany, DaimlerChrysler AG --
> http://www.daimlerchrysler.com/-- develops, manufactures,
> distributes, and sells various automotive products, primarily
> passenger cars, light trucks, and commercial vehicles worldwide.
> It primarily operates in four segments: Mercedes Car Group,
> Chrysler Group, Commercial Vehicles, and Financial Services.
>
> The Chrysler Group segment offers cars and minivans, pick-up
> trucks, sport utility vehicles, and vans under the Chrysler,

> accessories under the MOPAR brand.
>
> The Chrysler Group is facing a difficult market environment in
> the United States with excess inventory, non-competitive legacy
> costs for employees and retirees, continuing high fuel prices
> and a stronger shift in demand toward smaller vehicles. At the
> same time, key competitors have further increased margin and
> volume pressures -- particularly on light trucks -- by making
> significant price concessions. In addition, increased interest
> rates caused higher sales & marketing expenses.
>
> In order to improve the earnings situation of the Chrysler Group
> as quickly and comprehensively, measures to increase sales and
> cut costs in the short term are being examined at all stages of
> the value chain, in addition to structural changes being
> reviewed as well.

> FORD MOTOR: Russian Workers Go Back to Work After One-Day Strike
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
> Ford Motor Company's plant in Russia resumed production on
> Feb. 15 after workers dropped their tools for a one-day strike,
> angling for better pay and benefits, while continuing talks to
> settle the dispute, Reuters reports.
>
> "Both sides are interested in reaching a new labor agreement,"
> said Yekaterina Kulinenko, a Ford Russia spokeswoman, following
> a meeting between management and union leaders.
>
> Nearly 1,400 workers at the St. Petersburg plant went on strike
> Feb. 14, angling for higher pay and more benefits for working
> under hazardous conditions, the Associated Press states.
>
> The workers warned that they would resume their strike if their
> demands were not met. Aside from more pay and benefits, they
> also want the company to stop hiring temporary staff and give
> guarantee jobs to workers injured at the plant, AP relates.
>
> Temporary workers comprise 8% of the plant's total workforce.
> Average monthly wages at the plant range from RUR13,000 to
> RUR19,000 (US$495-US$720), AP reveals.
>
> Management is offering a wage hike of 14-20% and bonuses for
> workers that have been with the plant for more than five years.
> They also proposed an add-on of RUR7,400 ($280) to the bonus for
> having a baby, as well as interest-free credit, Reuters adds.
>
> Published reports say the company plans to accelerate the import
> of 1,700 Ford Focus cars to make up for the possible loss in
> production due to the strike. It also aims to import 2,300 Ford
> Focus cars to address the model's shortage in Russia.
>
> Plant officials plan to increase production to 75,000 in 2007,
> compared with about 60,000 cars manufactured in 2006, which were
> mostly the Focus model, AP discloses.
>
> The strike is a sign of industrial turmoil in Russia, with
> workers asking for a share in the profits from the country's
> economic boom over the past eight years, Reuters observes.
>
> Foreign automobile makers in Russia are currently enjoying a
> boost in sales, with Ford being the most successful after
> reporting total sales of 116,000 locally produced and imported
> vehicles in Russia in 2006, Reuters reveals. It plans to sell
> 150,000 in 2007, AP says.
>
> Consultants Ernst & Young estimates 2006 market growth at 14.4%
> to 1.84 million vehicles per year. Sales of new foreign cars in
> 2005 increased 60% to 563,400, AP reports.
>
> St. Petersburg welcomed a number of automakers that have based
> operations there, taking advantage of tax breaks and
> infrastructure. General Motors Corp. broke ground in June, at a
> site just outside the city, on its first fully owned plant in
> Russia, AP states.
>
> Volkswagen AG entered into an agreement with the Russian
> government in May to build a US$500 million plant near Moscow.
> France's Renault SA, South Korea's Kia Motors Corp. and Japan's
> Toyota Motor Corp. have all been operating in Russia since 2005,
> AP relates.

> Monday's edition of the TCR delivers a list of indicative prices
> for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par. Prices
> are obtained by TCR editors from a variety of outside sources
> during the prior week we think are reliable. Those sources may
> not, however, be complete or accurate. The Monday Bond Pricing
> table is compiled on the Friday prior to publication. Prices
> reported are not intended to reflect actual trades. Prices for
> actual trades are probably different. Our objective is to share
> information, not make markets in publicly traded securities.
> Nothing in the TCR constitutes an offer or solicitation to buy
> or sell any security of any kind. It is likely that some entity
> affiliated with a TCR editor holds some position in the issuers'
> public debt and equity securities about which we report.
>
> Each Tuesday edition of the TCR contains a list of companies
> with insolvent balance sheets whose shares trade higher than
> US$3 per share in public markets. At first glance, this list
> may look like the definitive compilation of stocks that are
> ideal to sell short. Don't be fooled. Assets, for example,
> reported at historical cost net of depreciation may understate
> the true value of a firm's assets. A company may establish
> reserves on its balance sheet for liabilities that may never
> materialize. The prices at which equity securities trade in
> public market are determined by more than a balance sheet
> solvency test.
>
> A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
> Thursday's edition of the TCR. Submissions about insolvency-
> related conferences are encouraged. Send announcements to
> conferences@bankrupt.com/
>
> Each Friday's edition of the TCR includes a review about a book
> of interest to troubled company professionals. All titles are
> available at your local bookstore or through Amazon.com. Go to
> http://www.bankrupt.com/books/to order any title today.
