PORTOLA PACKAGING: S&P Junks US$180 Million Sr. Unsec. Notes
------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its issue-level
rating on Portola Packaging Inc.'s US$180 million 8.25%
senior unsecured notes to 'CC' (two notches lower than the 'CCC'
corporate credit rating) from 'CCC-' and revised the recovery
rating to '6' from '5', indicating the expectation for
negligible (0% to 10%) recovery in the event of a payment
default.  At the same time, we affirmed the 'CCC' corporate
credit rating on Portola.  The outlook is negative.

"The downgrade on Portola's senior unsecured notes reflects the
increase to secured debt in the capital structure resulting from
the refinancing of the revolving credit facility through the
issuance of US$15 million in second-lien term notes," said
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Henry Fukuchi.  The US$15
million in additional capital will support liquidity in the near
term and provide financial flexibility to meet working capital
needs and other cash outlays related to Portola's recently
announced restructuring initiatives.

Although the refinancing of the revolving credit facility
improves the company's liquidity and financial flexibility in
the near term, S&P remains concerned over the difficult
operating environment Portola faces in the next few quarters
driven by rising raw material costs, a slowdown in the economy,
and the timing related to the realization of restructuring
benefits.

On April 14, 2008, Portola amended its existing credit agreement
with General Electric Capital Corp.  The amendment extended the
maturity date to April 15, 2011, from Jan. 23, 2009; increased
pricing to Libor plus 400 basis points from Libor plus 300; and
increased the amount of capital expenditures to US$12 million
from US$10 million per fiscal year for the remainder of the
agreement.  Standard & Poor's does not rate this revolving
credit facility.

Portola also entered into a US$15 million credit agreement and
term note with Wayzata Investment Partners LLC.  The term note
is secured by a second lien on Portola's assets, including the
stock and assets of its subsidiaries.  The term note bears an
interest rate of 12% per year and is paid quarterly, with full
principal due in July 2011.  S&P does not rate this term note.

The ratings on Portola reflect the company's highly leveraged
financial profile, constrained liquidity, modest-size
operations, and narrow product line.  Only partially offsetting
these negative factors are defensible niche positions in end
markets and favorable geographic diversity.  With annual sales
of about US$278 million, Batavia, Ill.-based Portola produces
tamper-evident plastic closures on packaging applications for
noncarbonated beverages such as dairy drinks, fruit juices, and
water; cosmetics; and food products.

EURASIA INSURANCE: High Credit Risk Cues S&P to Put B+ Rating
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'B+' long-term
counterparty credit and insurer financial strength ratings and
its 'kzBBB+' Kazakhstan national scale rating to Kazakhstan-
based insurer Eurasia Insurance Co.  The outlook is stable.

"The ratings reflect the significant economic and industry risks
that can affect insurers and other financial institutions in the
domestic Kazakh market," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst
Victor Nikolskiy.  "The high credit risk exposure to the
currently troubled local banking sector, unproven adequacy of
reserving, and the lesser concern that Eurasia's financial
flexibility and shareholder support have yet to be tested in
adversity are also rating constraints."

These factors are mitigated by the company's good, sustainable,
and leading position in Kazakhstan's--and, increasingly, the
region's--insurance and reinsurance markets; and good operating
performance, evinced by the earnings of recent years.  The
company also implicitly benefits from the extensive business
connections of its ultimate shareholder group (comprising
wealthy and influential Kazakh businessmen) who have declared
their long-term support for Eurasia and given some substance to
this by forgoing an annual dividend in recent years.

S&P expects that Eurasia will maintain its position as the
leading Kazakh commercial insurer, with a good operating
performance, adequate capitalization, an increasingly
diversified business geographic spread, and an investment
portfolio with no increase in Eurasia's already high exposure to
Kazakhstan's troubled banking sector.

"The outlook on Eurasia's ratings could be revised to positive
or the ratings could even be raised if the insurer maintains
operating performance at a good and sustainable level, and if
the quality of investments improves," said Mr. Nikolskiy.

The outlook could be revised to negative due to significant
deterioration in asset quality or in operating performance, or
if the currently high economic and industry risks become even
more acute in the Republic of Kazakhstan (foreign currency BBB-
/Negative/A-3, local currency BBB/Negative/A-3; Kazakhstan
national scale 'kzAAA').

LONDON ACQUISITION: Moody's Puts B1 Corporate Family Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has assigned a corporate family rating
of B1 to London Acquisition Holding B.V., the ultimate holding
company of Stork N.V. with outstanding debt.

At the same time, Moody's has also assigned Ba3 ratings to the
group's EUR831 million senior secured bank credit facilities as
well as a B3 rating to the EUR185 million mezzanine facility.
This is the first time Moody's has assigned ratings to the
group.  The rating outlook is stable.

Stork was acquired by a bidding group led by Candover for a
total consideration of EUR1,256 million (net of the proceeds of
asset disposals), of which approximately EUR553 million has been
funded with debt.

The B1 corporate family rating reflects:

   (i) Stork's solid business diversity given its coverage of
       the technical services market and aerospace segment,
       combined with the expectation of a more balanced profit
       distribution across these divisions going forward;

  (ii) the moderate business risk profile of the technical
       services division, based on a well-established market
       position as a provider of integrated technical services
       for a diverse business customer base in various
       industries and additional growth opportunities due to
       continued outsourcing trends;

(iii) the high operating flexibility of the technical services
       divisions thanks to its relatively low capital intensity,
       which ensures relatively stable profit and cash
       generation levels through the cycle;

  (iv) the medium-term profit generation potential of the
       group's aerospace services division, due to its
       outstanding position for Fokker maintenance services,
       which somewhat offsets the current underperformance of
       the aerospace industry division;

   (v) good revenue visibility and predictability for all
       divisions in light of the solid order books and contract
       portfolio, particularly the strong order book of
       aerospace industries which should support its turnaround;
       and

  (vi) solid financial flexibility due to an extended debt
       maturity profile and alternate liquidity sources.

The rating is constrained by:

   (i) the low earnings stability of the group's aerospace
       industry division as a result of a limited absolute
       scale, customer concentration and the subsequent
       vulnerability of its operating performance to order
       and/or production delays, while exposure to raw material
       price changes is limited due to the existence of pass-on
       clauses in the majority of contracts;

  (ii) the challenge to manage the group's inherent foreign
       exchange exposure effectively over the medium term, in
       particular as regards the aerospace industry division,
       although Moody's recognizes that a sizable proportion of
       cash flows are hedged at attractive rates for the coming
       years;

(iii) an expectation of a slightly negative free cash flow
       generation over the next few years due to the continued
       high investment requirements of the aerospace industry
       division, the outstanding penalty payouts for the NH90
       helicopter program and cash interest costs;

  (iv) the longer-term strategic challenge to expand the
       aerospace services division beyond servicing Fokker
       fleets;

   (v) the low geographic diversity of the technical services
       division with its regional concentration on the Benelux
       market; and

  (vi) high financial leverage, however Moody's reckons that the
       transaction was financed with a significant equity
       contribution of around 55%.

While Moody's views the strengths of Stork's business profile as
highly supportive for the rating outcome, the rating is
constrained by Stork's credit metrics which are expected to be
improved over the next years.  The ratio of debt to EBITDA is
estimated to be reduced below the 5.0x expected for fiscal year
end 2008 and Moody's also anticipates that EBIT to interest
coverage will substantially improve from 1.2x (pro-forma
excluding financing for food systems) as expected for fiscal
year end 2008.

The stable rating outlook incorporates Moody's expectation that
the group will record a growing operating performance and cash
generation reflected in credit metrics more in line with the B1
rating category.  By 2010, Debt to EBITDA is expected to be
reduced towards 4.5x, EBIT to Interest Coverage towards 2.0x and
RCF to Net Debt above 10%.  In addition, the stable outlook
assumes that there will be no sizable acquisitions or dividend
payouts.  The projected improvements will be particularly driven
by a sustainable recovery of the group's aerospace industry
division, continued organic growth in all other divisions and
additional cost reduction benefits.

Stork's technical services and aerospace services divisions
generated solid and relatively stable profitability and cash
generation levels in recent years, which are expected to be
sustained over the next few years.  However, the group's
operating performance was constrained by its aerospace industry
division, which is currently in a life cycle transition phase of
most of its components manufactured.

This division's operating performance in 2006 and 2007 was
burdened by:

   (i) final assembly delays affecting the A380 which were out
       of Stork's control and

  (ii) costly technical modifications of the NH90 helicopter
       program, which caused production delays and resulted in
       penalty charges that will be paid out over the next few
       years.

Given the division's strong order book and participation in a
variety of growth programs, efficient execution and a production
ramp-up are at the forefront of the group's strategy.

The ratings could enjoy upward pressure driven by:

   (1) a more balanced profit and cash generation across all
       divisions;

   (2) a sustained turnaround in the aerospace industry
       division;

   (3) positive free cash flows applied to a reduction in
       leverage, evidenced by debt to EBITDA below 4.5x, RCF to
       Net Debt towards the mid-teens and EBIT to Interest
       Expense above 2.0x; and

   (4) preservation of a sufficient liquidity cushion.

The ratings would likely experience downward pressure in the
event of developments contrary to Moody's expectations, notably:

   (1) erosion in EBIT to Interest Expense below 1.2x (pro-forma
       excluding financing costs for holding the food systems
       division until its disposal which occurred during the
       first months of 2008) and debt to EBITDA trending back to
       5.0x;

   (2) a diminishing liquidity profile and cushion under
       financial covenants; and

   (3) the absence of a sustained turnaround in the aerospace
       industry division.

The ratings benefit from the group's good financial flexibility,
reflected in an extended debt maturity profile with only limited
debt amortization requirements over the next few years,
sufficient availability under a EUR180 million revolving credit
facility and a EUR150 million capex facility of which EUR50
million are undrawn, and guarantee facilities of EUR85 million.
Moody's also recognizes that EUR100 million of drawn capex
facility have not yet been spent and are available as cash, but
also the group's flexibility to reduce some of its capital
expenditures in a downside scenario.

Moody's has assigned a Probability of Default Rating of B1, in
line with the company's B1 Corporate Family Rating and the
assumption of a group recovery rate of 50% (LGD4).

Moody's has assigned a Ba3 rating (LGD3, 40%) to the EUR831
million senior secured bank credit facility, partially issued at
the level of London Acquisition Holding B.V., a direct holding
company of London Acquisition B.V. and Stork N.V.  The senior
secured bank facility benefits from an all-asset pledge and
senior guarantees provided by all material subsidiaries and
ranks pari passu with the company's trade payables.  Within the
next months, debt issued at the level of London acquisition
holding B.V. will be pushed down into Stork B.V. (resulting from
the conversion of Stork N.V.) facilitated by a merger of London
Acquisition B.V. and Stork N.V.

A B3 rating (LGD6, 90%) was assigned to the EUR185 million
mezzanine facility (due in 2017), reflecting its contractual
subordination to the senior bank facility, secured by a second
lien on all assets and subordinated guarantees by all material
subsidiaries.  The mezzanine facility was issued at the level of
London Acquisition Holding B.V. and will be pushed down into the
newly formed entity Stork B.V.

Moody's considers the EUR341 million shareholder loan, issued at
the level of London Acquisition Holding B.V. with interest
accrued and maturing after the senior secured bank credit
facility and mezzanine facility, as equity financing, given its
equity-equivalent status in an insolvency scenario.

Assignments:

Issuer:. London Acquisition Holding B.V.

   -- Corporate Family Rating, Assigned B1

   -- Probability of Default Rating, Assigned B1

   -- Ba3 Rating Senior Secured Bank Credit Facility,

Stork generated total revenues of EUR1.6 billion in its
technical services and aerospace divisions in 2007.  In its
technical services division, the company is a professional
supplier of integrated technical services for installations and
machines in the industrial markets.  Its aerospace division
provides maintenance, spare parts and logistic services for
aircraft operators and also manufactures structures, wiring
systems and landing gear components for the leading OEMs in this
sector under long-term contracts.


STORK NV: Moody's Rates EUR831 Mln Sr. Sec. Facilities at Ba3
-------------------------------------------------------------

of B1 to London Acquisition Holding B.V., the ultimate holding
company of Stork N.V. with outstanding debt.

GRAHAM PACKAGING: Weak Cash Flow Cues Moody's to Keep B2 Rating
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed the B2 Corporate Family
Rating of Graham Packaging, L.P. and changed the outlook to
stable from negative.

Moody's took these ratings:

   -- Affirmed US$1,870 million senior secured first lien term
      loan due 10/07/2011, B1 (to LGD 3, 38% from LGD 3, 37%)

   -- Affirmed US$250 million senior secured first lien revolver
      due 10/07/2010, B1 (to LGD 3, 38% from LGD 3, 37%)

   -- Withdraw US$250 million second lien term loan C due
      04/07/2012, B3 (LGD 5, 74%)

   -- Affirmed US$250 million 8.5% senior unsecured notes due
      10/15/2012, Caa1 (to LGD 5, 84% from LGD 5, 83%)

   -- Affirmed US$375 million senior subordinated notes due
      10/15/2014, Caa1 (LGD 6, 93%)

   -- Affirmed Corporate family rating, B2

   -- Affirmed Probability of Default Rating, B2

   -- Upgraded the Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating to SGL-2
      from SGL-3

The ratings outlook is changed to stable.

In changing the ratings outlook to stable, Moody's gave
significant consideration to Graham's success to date in its
performance improvement initiative and the improvement in credit
metrics.  The new management team has demonstrated an ability to
improve productivity, contain costs and effectively renegotiate
customer contracts to include cost pass through for all input
costs.  Graham is expected to achieve further improvements in
credit metrics as the company continues to execute on its
initiative as well as renegotiate customer contracts as they
expire.

The ratings are constrained by Graham's high customer
concentration, low growth and lack of free cash flow.  Graham's
free cash flow to debt is weak for the rating category and
dependent upon further improvements in margins and working
capital management to increase given the low growth in sales.
The company has also been cited for a material weakness in
accounting practices in each of the last two years.

Based in York, Pennsylvania, Graham Packaging Company, L.P. is a
leading global designer and manufacturer of customized blow-
molded plastic containers for branded food and beverages,
household and personal care products, and automotive lubricants.
Blackstone Capital Partners of New York is the majority owner.
Revenue for the last twelve months ended March 31, 2008 was
approximately US$2.5 billion.

HOME CREDIT: Moody's Puts Ba3 Rating on Loan Participation Notes
----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has assigned a Ba3 long-term foreign
currency rating to the senior unsecured Loan Participation Notes
expected to be issued on a limited-recourse basis by Eurasia
Capital S.A., a Luxembourg-based special purpose vehicle, for
the sole purpose of funding loans to Home Credit and Finance
Bank Limited Liability Company.

The amount of the issue and its maturity will be determined at a
later stage.  The outlook on the rating is stable, in line with
the stable outlook on HCFB's existing global scale ratings of
Ba3/D-.  HCFB's short-term global local and foreign currency
ratings are Not Prime (no specific outlook).

The Ba3 rating is based primarily on the fundamental ability of
HCFB, the ultimate obligor in respect of payments under the
notes, to make timely payments of interest and ultimate payment
of principal on the loan.  The latter obligations include those
associated with the put option that the noteholders will,
according to the terms of the issue, be able to exercise in
order to sell the notes back to the bank 18 months after
issuance.  Moody's notes that, if the noteholders were to
exercise the put option, this could result in HCFB needing to
repay a sizeable obligation, thus placing a burden on the bank's
financial resources.

As the ultimate borrower under the transaction, HCFB must comply
with a number of covenants such as negative pledge, limitations
on mergers, disposals and certain transactions with affiliates.
A financial covenant stipulates that the bank must maintain a
minimum 13% BIS Capital Adequacy Ratio ('CAR') at the current
rating level.  HCFB's BIS CAR stood at 19.8% as per 31 December
2007, providing a substantial buffer in respect of CAR
deterioration before the notes become due and payable.

Moody's notes that the rating is constrained by these factors
that weigh on HCFB's intrinsic financial strength:

The bank has a historically poor asset quality and a developing
standard of credit underwriting.  These are reflected in a high
rate of problem loans in relation to the gross loan book as well
as a relatively high level of write-offs and problem loan sales
in line with its very rapid pace of growth in 2007, which
entails high credit risks that may translate into an even higher
level of problem loans as fresh loans season.  The bank's low-
income consumer borrowers are at risk of inflationary pressures
in Russia, which also may translate into a higher rate of
problem loans.  HCFB's refinancing risk will remain a key
constraint on the bank's current rating levels and will limit
their upward potential.  The proceeds of the notes will be used
to refinance maturing debt.

Moody's will continue to closely monitor the bank's stand-alone
financial position and its ability to refinance its market
funding.

The rating agency said that if it were to identify a further
significant deterioration in HCFB's asset quality and/or an
increase in refinancing risks that weighed on the bank's other
financial metrics, a negative rating action would be likely.

Headquartered in Moscow, Russian Federation, HCFB reported under
IFRS total consolidated assets of US$3.317 billion and equity of
US$609 million as of Dec. 31, 2007.

VIMPEL-COMMUNICATIONS: Owes US$54MM in Back Taxes, Agency Says
--------------------------------------------------------------
OJSC Vimpel-Communications received on May 27, 2008, the
preliminary conclusion of the Russian Tax Inspectorate's review
of its tax filings for the 2005 and 2006 financial years.

According to the document, VimpelCom owes around US$54 million
in additional taxes, excluding fines and penalties, for the
years in review.

Most of the claims are similar to the claims VimpelCom received
for previous financial years, and in the past the company has
been able to successfully reverse most of these claims in the
Russian courts.

On June 3, 2008, VimpelCom submitted its preliminary objections
to the Tax Inspectorate.  The company expects to receive a final
tax claim in the near future and to appeal the final tax claim
in the Russian courts to the extent that it is not reduced by
our objections.

The company have not made any reserves for these tax claims,
because it believes that the claims will ultimately be resolved
in its favor.

LUCITE INT'L: Weak Performance Cues Moody's to Cut Rating to B3
---------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has downgraded the Corporate Family
Rating of Lucite International Group Holdings to B3 and the
Senior Secured Ratings of Lucite International US Finco Limited
and Lucite International Finco Limited to B2.  The outlook for
the ratings of Lucite and its financial subsidiaries is stable.

Moody's downgrade of the Corporate Family Rating of Lucite to B3
is driven by the group's very weak operating performance in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2008, which was below the
expectations factored in the rating, and the rating agency's
belief that the operating environment will remain volatile and
challenging during the course of fiscal year 2008.  In first
quarter, 2008 Lucite reported a drop in EBITDA of 33% (year-on-
year) to GBP20 million and a decrease in EBITDA margin of 400bp
(year-on-year) to 9.5%, the weakest level since 2002 both in
absolute and margin terms. Lucite also consumed cash at the
operating level (GBP35 million net cash outflow from operations)
at a time when the issuer has limited flexibility to reduce its
capex, because of the ongoing construction of its Alpha plant in
Singapore, which is expected to be commissioned during the
course of fiscal year 2008.

The downgrade to B3 also reflects the agency's concern that cash
consumption at Lucite may continue at a high rate making the
company reliant on continued availability of the US$100 million
revolving credit facility.  Lucite's headroom under the leverage
covenant is reducing due to weak EBITDA generation and a gradual
decline in the covenant level (headroom is estimated at
approximately 10% for the LTM period to first quarter, 2008).
The terms of the facility include a cure mechanism, whereby the
borrower can increase its covenant-EBITDA by US$10 million for a
period of twelve months for covenant calculation purposes
through a cash equity injection in the same amount.  At end of
March 2008, Lucite had GBP80 million cash on its balance sheet.

The stable outlook reflects Moody's view that Lucite is well
positioned to stabilize its profitability and contain cash
consumption via a gradual pass-on of elevated raw material
prices to its customers, even though constrained by weak demand
from the US construction industry.  The start-up of the Alpha
plant based on proprietary Lucite technology later this year is
also expected to contribute to cash generation.  Through the
period of cash consumption, the company is expected to benefit
from the continued support of its shareholder and banking group,
keeping the liquidity facility available to Lucite.

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
