EUROCONNECT ISSUER: Fitch Downgrades Ratings on Four 2007-1 Notes
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded the ratings of four classes of notes
of EuroConnect Issuer LC 2007-1 Ltd., removed them from Rating
Watch Negative and assigned Outlooks and Loss Severity Ratings:

  -- EUR310.4 million Class A secured notes (ISIN: XS0311810898):
     Downgraded to 'A' from 'AAA', removed from RWN, assigned
     Stable Outlook and 'LS-3'

  -- EUR93.1 million Class B secured notes (ISIN: XS0311811862):
     Downgraded to 'BBB' from 'A+', removed from RWN, assigned
     Negative Outlook and 'LS-4'

  -- EUR62.1 million Class C secured notes (ISIN: XS0311813306):
     Downgraded to 'BB' from 'BBB', removed from RWN, assigned
     Negative Outlook and 'LS-5'

  -- EUR68.3 million Class D secured notes (ISIN: XS0311814536):
     Downgraded to 'B-' from 'BB', removed from RWN, assigned
     Negative Outlook and 'LS-5'

The transaction is a partially-funded synthetic collateralized
debt obligation referencing a predominantly European portfolio of
senior unsecured obligations of medium-sized and large corporate
entities originated and credit-assessed by Bayerische Hypo- und
Vereinsbank AG, UniCredit Bank Austria AG (formerly Bank Austria
Creditanstalt AG, BA-CA) and UniCredit Corporate Banking (formerly
UniCredit Banca d'Impresa, UBI).

The notes were initially placed on RWN on September 11, 2009 to
reflect the potential for downgrades as a result of Fitch's
updated Global Rating Criteria for Corporate CDOs.  Additionally,
at that time the arranger had informed Fitch of upcoming changes
to the transaction within the following few months.  Recently, the
arranger notified the agency that no restructuring measures would
be taken.  The rating actions are primarily the result of the
updated rating criteria -- which were used to determine rating
loss rates for the notes -- but they also reflect some negative
credit migration in the portfolio since closing in August 2007,
and the agency's expectation that the portfolio will experience
increasing defaults and delinquencies.  These negative performance
factors have outweighed the increase in the credit enhancement
level of each rated tranche following the portfolio amortization
after the transaction became static in July 2008.

Based on the latest pool cut as of July 2009, the proportion of
loans with sub-investment grade ratings based on the initial
mapping of the banks' internal ratings to Fitch's IDR scale has
more than doubled to 31.9% from 12.5% at closing, excluding
defaulted assets.  Cumulative defaults and the delinquency rate
(loans overdue by more than 30 days) were low at 0.8% and 0.14%,
respectively.

The exposure to the largest obligor and top 10 borrowers has
increased to 3.6% and 24.1% of the portfolio notional,
respectively, compared to 1.8% and 12.7%, respectively, at
closing.  The portfolio is concentrated in Austria (38%), Italy
(20%) and Germany (15%).

As of July 2009, the portfolio consisted of 630 loans to 390
obligor groups and the balance has decreased by 47% since closing
to EUR3,290 million, excluding defaulted assets.  The originating
banks, also the servicers, use their internal credit rating
systems to assess the loans.  Fitch has reviewed the banks'
internal rating systems and mapped the internal rating categories
to Fitch's IDR scale at closing of the transaction.

The note issuance proceeds remain as cash deposits at Bayerische
Hypo- und Vereinsbank AG ('A+'/'F1+'/Stable), Unicredit Bank
Austria AG ('A'/'F1'/Stable) and UniCredit S.P.A.  (formerly
UniCredito Italiano S.P.A., rated 'A'/'F1'/Negative).

CMA CGM: Creditors Demand Management Changes
--------------------------------------------
CMA CGM SA creditors have told the company to replace founding
Chief Executive Officer Jacques Saade before they restructure its
US$5.6 billion debt, Laurence Frost at Bloomberg News reports,
citing three people with knowledge of the matter.

According to Bloomberg, the people, who asked not to be named
because the discussions are confidential, said the company is
considering demands from lenders including BNP Paribas SA that it
appoint a new CEO and revamp the board.

Bloomberg says CMA would default on payments if the banks invoked
its breach of covenants on US$4 billion of the debt.

Headquartered in Marseilles, France, CMA CGM S.A. --
http://www.cma-cgm.com/-- ships freight PDQ.  The marine
transportation company is one of the world's leading container
carriers.  Through subsidiaries it operates a fleet of about 370
vessels that serve more than 400 ports around the globe, and it
maintains a network of about 650 facilities in about 150
countries.  In addition to hauling containers by sea, CMA CGM
provides logistics services, arranging the transportation of
containerized freight by river, road, and rail.  The company's
tourism division arranges cruises and other travel services.

CONTINENTAL AG: Posts EUR1.04 Bln Net Loss in Third Quarter 2009
----------------------------------------------------------------
Chris Reiter at Bloomberg News reports that Continental AG posted
a net loss of EUR1.04 billion (US$1.5 billion) in the third
quarter of 2009, compared with net income of EUR2.4 million a year
earlier.

The company's third-quarter sales fell 9.4% to EUR5.34 billion,
Bloomberg says.

Bloomberg relates the company took a charge of EUR876 million at
its three automotive divisions to "clean up financial risks."

According to Bloomberg, the company's net debt was EUR9.46 billion
at the end of September, or EUR1.34 billion lower than a year ago.

                           *     *     *

On Aug. 20, 2009, the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe reported
Fitch Ratings downgraded Continental AG's Long-term Issuer
Default Rating and senior unsecured ratings to 'B+' from 'BB',
respectively.  Fitch simultaneously maintained the IDR and
senior unsecured ratings on Rating Watch Negative.  The agency
affirmed Continental's Short-term IDR at 'B'.  Fitch said the
rating action reflects the considerable refinancing risk faced by
Continental for its EUR3.5 billion tranche, related to its Siemens
VDO acquisition facility, maturing in August 2010, and the
increased risk of a breach in covenants.  Fitch is concerned about
tightened financial covenant headroom due to Continental's
weakened operating performance amid the severe global auto
downturn.  While Continental has stated that it will be able to
comply with financial covenants as of end-H109, Fitch believes
that ongoing compliance will remain challenging if no agreement is
reached with its banks.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Aug. 18,
2009, Moody's Investors Service downgraded Continental AG's
Corporate Family Rating to B1 from Ba3.  Moody's said the rating
outlook remains negative.


CONTINENTAL AG: Asks Three Banks to Manage Share Sale
-----------------------------------------------------
Cornelius Rahn at Bloomberg News, citing Handelsblatt, reports
that Continental AG asked Deutsche Bank AG and JPMorgan Chase &
Co. to manage its planned share sale.

According to Bloomberg, the newspaper said the share sale of up to
EUR1.5 billion (US$2.2 billion), which is expected in the first
quarter of 2010, has the backing of Schaeffler Group, which holds
a 90% stake in the auto-parts supplier.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Oct. 20,
2009, Bloomberg News said Continental is considering selling bonds
to refinance debt.  Bloomberg disclosed two people familiar with
the situation said a bond sale would be in addition to the planned
stock offering to help the company prepare for the repayment of
EUR3.5 billion (US$5.2 billion) of debt due August next year.

PRIME 2006-1: Moody's Junks Ratings on Two Classes of Notes
-----------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service took these rating actions on five
classes of notes issued by Prime 2006-1 Funding Limited
Partnership and EUR9,000,000 PRIME 2006-1 Funding Linked Notes due
2013/15 issued by Landesbank Baden-Wrttemberg:

  -- EUR119.6M A, Downgraded to A1 and Remains On Review for
     Possible Downgrade; previously on March 13, 2009 Aaa Placed
     Under Review for Possible Downgrade

  -- EUR15M B, Downgraded to Ba1 and Remains On Review for
     Possible Downgrade; previously on March 13, 2009 Aa3 Placed
     Under Review for Possible Downgrade

  -- EUR20M C, Downgraded to B2 and Remains On Review for Possible
     Downgrade; previously on March 13, 2009 A3 Placed Under
     Review for Possible Downgrade

  -- EUR13.9M D, Downgraded to Caa2 and Remains On Review for
     Possible Downgrade; previously on March 13, 2009 Baa3 Placed
     Under Review for Possible Downgrade

  -- EUR13M E, Downgraded to Caa3 and Remains On Review for
     Possible Downgrade; previously on March 13, 2009 Ba2 Placed
     Under Review for Possible Downgrade

  -- EUR9,000,000 PRIME 2006-1 Funding Linked Notes due 2013/15,
     Downgraded to B3 and Remains On Review for Possible
     Downgrade; previously on Sept. 24, 2009 A2 Placed Under
     Review for Possible Downgrade

  -- EUR9,000,000 Prime 2006-1 Funding Linked Notes is a cash-
     flow CDO combination note issued by LBBW under a term note
     program.  It is a repackaging of Classes A and E of SME CDO
     notes issued by Prime 2006-1 Funding Limited Partnership.

The cash flows of the two classes are passed through to the
combination note.  The rating incorporates the additional expected
loss deriving from LBBW (Aa2/P-1/C-) as the issuer of the
transaction.

The rating of the PRIME 2006-1 Funding Linked Notes due 2013/15
addresses the expected loss to investors as a proportion of the
rated balance of EUR 9 million, minus the aggregate of all
payments made to the rated notes either by principal or interest.
Such rated balance has been reduced by its pro rata share of all
payments made to classes A and E down to approximately
EUR6.8 million.  The Class A notes have partially amortized by
approximately EUR 13 million due to a reduction of the Principal
Deficiency Ledger balance.

Moody's retains the ratings all of the above-mentioned notes under
review for possible downgrade while it is reviewing the impact in
the current environment of loss participation features embedded in
the underlying assets, as further detailed below.

This transaction is a cash flow CDO backed by profit
participations ("Genussrechte") issued by German small and medium-
sized corporates.  The obligations in the portfolio have certain
features of equity including subordination and linkage of payments
to financial performance of the obligor such as interest deferral
and contingent coupon.  Some of the obligations can be written
down depending on financial performance of the obligor and may
extend redemption up to the legal final maturity of the
transaction which is 2 years after its scheduled maturity date.
Obligations which have not redeemed at par plus accrued interest
by the legal maturity of the transaction will expire and lead to a
loss for Prime 2006-1 and the related combo note.

According to Moody's, the rating actions taken on the notes are
primarily the result of credit deterioration in the underlying
portfolio.  This is observed through a decline in the average
credit rating as measured through a portfolio weighted average
rating of Ba2 compared to Ba1 at closing, after mapping the bank
internal ratings to Moody's ratings and removing two assets
totalling EUR25 million which post-mapping would be rated Ca as
well as EUR8.5 million of early terminations at par and one
insolvency of 2.5 million.  Since inception of the transaction
EUR21 million (approximately 10.7% of the initial par balance of
the portfolio) of Principal Deficiency Events have been reported,
including EUR 8.5 million of early terminations at par.  The
current outstanding balance of the Principal Deficiency Ledger is
approximately EUR8 million.  In addition, a significant portion of
the portfolio is currently on the portfolio advisor's watchlist.
The watchlisting is considered indicative of possible further
credit migration in the portfolio.

These rating actions also reflect the revision of certain key
assumptions with respect to default probability and correlation
that the agency uses to rate and monitor SME CDOs.  The revised
default probability assumptions have been applied to all assets in
the underlying portfolio by notching the ratings to levels
consistent with the revised assumptions.  Correlation levels
between the assets have been increased to reflect Moody's revised
correlation assumptions.  These revised assumptions incorporate
Moody's expectation that European corporate default rates are
likely to greatly exceed their historical long-term averages and
reflect the heightened interdependence of credit markets in the
current economic contraction.  The revised assumptions are
described in greater detail in the press release dated February 4,
2009, titled "Moody's updates key assumptions for rating CLOs."
Specifically, the changes announced include: (1) a 30% increase in
the assumed likelihood of default for corporate credits in CDOs
and (2) an increase in the default correlation applied to
corporate portfolios as generated through a combination of higher
default rates and increased asset correlations.  Moody's notes
that the European SME loan sector currently has a negative outlook
and has shown signs of increasing weakness in terms of credit
performance.  The sector is further stressed by the anticipated
limited refinancing opportunities for EMEA non-financial corporate
issuers rated Baa and below over the next six to twelve months.
Moody's has tested the impact of the forward looking information
incorporated by the portfolio advisor's watchlist and comments in
the investor report in its analysis by means of alternative stress
runs to the ratings of the affected obligors.  Additional stress
scenarios were also run in order to capture the risk related to
the non-granularity of the portfolio.  These stress scenarios
include notching the ratings of a portion of the largest exposures
in the portfolio.  Moody's also notes that the collateral pool
consists entirely of debt obligations issued by obligors whose
credit quality has been assessed through LBBW's and HSH's internal
ratings.  These ratings were mapped to Moody's rating scale via
mapping tables.

Moody's has previously used a rating-migration-based model to
capture the specific features of the assets in the portfolio.  The
rating agency has migrated its model from a rating-migration-based
framework to a framework based on simulation of impairments
(covering defaults, deferrals and write downs affecting the
assets), in order to capture the additional risk associated with
these hybrid instruments more adequately.  While Moody's reviews
its assumptions regarding deferrals and write downs, it will
retain the classes under review for possible downgrade, as the
revision of such assumptions may adversely affect the ratings.  As
at closing, Moody's has used a recovery assumption of zero, due to
the subordination of the assets.

In addition to the quantitative factors that are explicitly
modeled, qualitative factors are part of the rating committee
considerations.  These qualitative factors include the structural
protections in each transaction, the recent deal performance in
the current market environment, the legal environment, specific
documentation features and the potential for selection bias in the
portfolio.  All information available to rating committees,
including macroeconomic forecasts, input from other Moody's
analytical groups, market factors, and judgments regarding the
nature and severity of credit stress on the transactions, may
influence the final rating decision.

BACCHUS 2008-1: S&P Lowers Rating on Class B Notes to 'BB+'
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered, removed from
CreditWatch negative, and then withdrew its ratings on the class A
and B notes issued by BACCHUS 2008-1 PLC.

The downgrades reflect:

* The application of S&P's new corporate collateralized debt
  obligation criteria published on Sept. 17; and

* S&P's assessment of a slight deterioration in the credit quality
  of the collateral supporting the CDO tranches due to exposure to
  obligors that have experienced negative rating migrations.

While there has been some negative rating migration in the
portfolio, S&P notes that none of the collateral assets has
experienced a payment default to date.

After downgrading the notes, S&P withdrew its ratings at the
issuer's request.

secured loans, as well as approximately 20% Second Lien and/or
Mezzanine Loan obligations.

The rating actions reflect Moody's revised assumptions with
respect to default probability and the calculation of the
diversity score as described in the press release dated
February 4, 2009, titled "Moody's updates key assumptions for
rating CLOs."  These revised assumptions have been applied to all
corporate credits in the underlying portfolio, the revised
assumptions for the treatment of ratings on "Review for Possible
Downgrade", "Review for Possible Upgrade", or with a "Negative
Outlook" being applied to those corporate credits that are
publicly rated.

Moody's also notes that a material proportion of the collateral
pool consists of debt obligations whose credit quality has been
assessed through Moody's credit estimates.  As credit estimates do
not carry credit indicators such as ratings reviews and outlooks,
a stress of a quarter notch-equivalent assumed downgrade was
applied to each of these estimates.

According to Moody's, the rating actions taken on the notes are
also a result of credit deterioration of the underlying portfolio.
This is observed through a decline in the average credit rating as
measured through the portfolio weighted average rating factor
'WARF' (currently 2511), an increase in the amount of defaulted
securities (currently 2.35% of the portfolio) and an increase in
the proportion of securities from issuers rated Caa1 and below
(currently 6.39% of the portfolio).  These measures were taken
from the recent trustee report dated September 30, 2009.  Moody's
also performed a number of sensitivity analyses, including
consideration of a further decline in portfolio WARF quality.  Due
to the impact of all the aforementioned stresses, key model inputs
used by Moody's in its analysis, such as par, weighted average
rating factor, and weighted average recovery rate, may be
different from trustee's reported numbers.

In addition to the quantitative factors that are explicitly
modeled, qualitative factors are part of the rating committee
considerations.  These qualitative factors include the structural
protections in each transaction, the recent deal performance in
the current market environment, the legal environment, specific
documentation features, the collateral manager's track record, and
the potential for selection bias in the portfolio.  All
information available to rating committees, including
macroeconomic forecasts, input from other Moody's analytical
groups, market factors, and judgments regarding the nature and
severity of credit stress on the transactions, may influence the
final rating decision.

This transaction is a managed cash CLO with exposure to
predominantly European senior secured loans, as well as some
mezzanine loan exposure (14.06%).  The reinvestment period ended
in April 2009 and the transaction is currently amortizing.

The rating actions reflect Moody's revised assumptions with

(currently 15.12% of the aggregate collateral balance), and a
failure of all par value tests (including a deterioration of the
Class A/B par value test from 127.68% in September 2008 to 117.32%
in September 2009 after the payment date).  These measures were
taken from the recent trustee report dated September 21, 2009.

BAAN COMPANY: Plan Offers Final Distribution of EUR2.85 Per Share
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The report of the liquidator, the liquidation accounts (rekening
en verantwoording) and the plan of distribution (plan van
verdeling) regarding the liquidation of Baan Company N.V. have
been made available with the Chamber of Commerce of East
Netherlands (office location Enschede) for inspection.

Following completion of the statutory two-month creditor objection
period the Company will be able to make the liquidation
distribution in the amount of EUR2.85 per share as set forth in
the plan of distribution.  The Company will make a further
announcement as to settlement of the liquidation distribution.

According to the Plan, the Company's assets as per the date of
completion of the liquidation will amount to EUR761,913,351 (fixed
and current assets).  The Company has 267,338,018 outstanding
shares.  The amount of EUR761,913,351 therefore allows for a
distribution of EUR2.85 per share.

As there are no liabilities, the full amount of assets --
Liquidation Surplus -- will be available for distribution.  The
Liquidation Surplus will be distributed to the persons entitled
thereto under the articles of association being the ordinary
shareholders of the Company, who shall receive an amount of
EUR2.85 per share as final liquidation distribution.

Currently Invensys Pic (indirectly) owns approximately 93% of the
shares in the Company.  About 5.21% of the shares in the Company
are held by ING and 1.73% ofthe shares in the Company are held by
other shareholders.

                      Eight-Year Liquidation

The Company, which was sent to liquidation in 2001, said that the
completion of the liquidation has been delayed due to various
litigation matters in the Netherlands and the United States of
America.

Shareholder lawsuits were filed alleging that the Company violated
U.S. securities laws by making purportedly false and misleading
statements about the Company's operations during the period from
around the end of January 1997 through mid-October 1998.  The
another complaint asserted purported claims for breach of
contract, violation of U.S. securities laws, violation of the
Georgia Securities Act, and intentional and negligent
misrepresentation all in connection with the Company's acquisition
in September 1998 of CAPS Logistics Inc.

Pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated July 26, 2000,
Invensys Holdings Limited, a unit of Invensys Plc, agreed to
purchase the entire assets and liabilities of Baan.  Principal
responsibility for the litigation matters were transferred on
August 31, 2000 to Invensys as part of the transaction.
Subsequently, on July 19, 2003, Invensys transferred the risk and
benefit of a number of legal proceedings to the third party
purchaser of most of the former subsidiaries of the Company as
part of the relevant sale and purchase agreement.

DSB BANK: ABN Amro CEO Gerrit Zalm Included in Bankruptcy Probe
---------------------------------------------------------------
Jurjen van de Pol at Bloomberg News reports that the Dutch central
bank will review the reliability and expertise of executives in
the financial sector who have worked at DSB Bank NV, including ABN
Amro Holding NV Chief Executive Officer Gerrit Zalm.

Bloomberg recalls Dutch Finance Minister Wouter Bos has ordered an
independent investigation into the events that led to the lender's
bankruptcy.  According to Bloomberg, this will also include an
investigation of the role of DSB's board members, which was
previously assigned to financial markets regulator AFM and the
Dutch central bank.

Bloomberg relates Mr. Bos said the investigation, which will take
at least three months, will be led by Professor Michiel Scheltema.

On Oct. 21, 2009, the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe, citing Dow
Jones Newswire, reported DSB Chief Executive Dirk Scheringa called
for a parliamentary investigation into the role played in its
collapse by the Dutch finance ministry and Dutch central bank.
Dow Jones disclosed Mr. Scheringa claimed that the finance
ministry and central bank disregarded a new business model DSB
Bank wanted to launch, funded by a one-time government loan of
EUR100 million, and hadn't seriously considered the option of a
takeover by an interested U.S. party.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Oct. 20,
2009, Bloomberg News said the Amsterdam court on Oct. 19 declared
DSB Bank bankrupt after its owner failed to find a buyer.  Citing
the Oct. 19 ruling posted on the court's Web site, Bloomberg
disclosed talks with a possible U.S.-based suitor, Dallas-based
buyout firm Lone Star Funds, failed.  Bloomberg said the Dutch
central bank took control of DSB on Oct. 12 as an outflow of
capital threatened the company's existence.

DSB Bank -- http://www.dsbbank.com/-- is a fully licensed bank in
the Netherlands, providing mortgages, consumer loans, savings and
insurance products to retail clients.  The bank has a leading
market share in the Dutch market for consumer loans.  DSB Bank
also has operations in Belgium and Germany.  DSB Bank, established
in 1975, is privately owned by Dirk Scheringa, currently CEO of
DSB Bank, Chairman of the Executive Management Board.
Mr. Scheringa is also 100% owner of AZ Alkmaar football club,
which plays in the Dutch Premier League and president of the
Scheringa Museum for Magic Realism, an international collection of
more than 500 works of art.

NKNK FINANCE: Moody's Assigns 'B1' Rating on US$101 Mil. Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's has assigned a (P)B1 rating to the proposed US$101 million
12 per cent Loan Participation Notes to be issued by NKNK Finance
Plc., a finance vehicle created for the sole purpose of financing
a loan to OAO Nizhnekamskneftekhim.  In the absence of a guarantee
from the beneficiary of the Notes proceeds, credit recourse is
provided by the underlying loan agreement with NKNK.  The outlook
is stable.

The Notes are issued to form part of the consideration in respect
of an exchange offer by the Issuer for up to US$200 million of its
8.5 per cent loan participation notes due 2015, originally issued
to finance a loan to NKNK.  As a consequence, no new funds will be
received by the company.

The notes will rank pari passu with all other unsecured
obligations of the company, and will be subject to various
covenants embedded in the Loan agreement between the Issuer and
NKNK, including limitations on additional indebtedness and the
creation of new liens.

Redemption of the principal will be effected by equal installments
semiannually starting from April 20, 2011, with the final
installment due on April 20, 2012.  Noteholders are entitled to a
put option in the event of Change of Control.

The assigned ratings assume that there will be no material
variations to the draft legal documentation reviewed by Moody's,
and assume that these agreements are legally valid, binding, and
enforceable.

The previous rating action on NKNK was on February 26, 2008 when
Moody's upgraded its Baseline Credit Assessment and affirmed
ratings at B1.

Based in Nizhnekamsk in the Russian Republic of Tatarstan (Ba1,
negative), Nizhnekamskneftekhim is one of the country's key
producers of rubbers, plastics monomers and other petrochemicals.
Its ten core production units are located on one site.  In 2008,
the company reported sales of RUB76.3 billion (around
US$3 billion) and adjusted EBITDA of RUB9.26 billion
(US$373 million).  Around half the company's revenue was derived
from export activities.

The downgrades principally reflect the implementation of Fitch's
revised SME CDO rating criteria.  The rating actions also reflect
increasing portfolio concentration risk, difficult macro-economic
conditions and reducing credit enhancement as the reserve funds
are released in accordance with the transaction documents.  All
four transactions have benefited from portfolio seasoning and
structural de-leveraging, with more de-leveraging seen in the
older vintage transactions due to the increased passage of time.
Therefore, the magnitude of the downgrades is not as significant
for older vintages because they have an increased ability to
withstand Fitch's revised stress tests.

Fitch also tested the CE for the junior tranches to see how it
would perform following the default and stressed recovery of the
largest obligors in the portfolio, in particular, to attain a 'B'
rating the note should be able to withstand the default of at
least the two largest assets.  The junior tranche downgrades are
primarily related to these obligor default assessments.  The
delinquency performance of three of the four transactions is in
line with Fitch's expectations.  Fondo de Titulizacion de Activos
Santander Empresas 4 was the only transaction where the agency's
rating action is linked to the arrears in the portfolio.

Fitch was not provided with updated loan by loan data to conduct
these reviews.  As such, the agency performed its analysis based
on synthetic portfolios that incorporate the characteristics of
the current collateral portfolios as reported by the gestora and
worst case assumptions regarding the largest obligors' recovery
expectations and delinquency status.

The downgrade of Fondo de Titulizacion de Activos Santander
Empresas 1's junior tranche mainly reflects a low level of CE
compared to the portfolio obligor concentration.  More
specifically, the two largest obligors account for approximately
7% of the portfolio, which when compared to the 3.7% CE for the
class D notes indicates that these notes could not withstand the
default of these two obligors with stressed recovery rates.  The
agency considers this level of coverage is only sufficient to
warrant a 'CCC' rating.  The senior and mezzanine tranches benefit
from CE provided by the class D notes, which is considered to
provide sufficient protection, commensurate with their current
ratings.

The downgrade of all the tranches in Fondo de Titulizacion de
Activos Santander Empresas 2 reflects Fitch's revised view on
default probability, recovery and correlation assumptions as
detailed in the SME CDO rating criteria.  The agency also
considered the performance of the transaction and composition of
the portfolio, such as the amortization of the notes (which has
resulted in increased CE for all the rated tranches), the
relatively low level of secured assets in the portfolio and high
obligor concentration.  Only 29% of the assets are secured with a
high average LTV of 74%, and the top 20 obligors account for 30%
of the portfolio.  The junior notes were downgraded due to their
sensitivity to default of the largest obligors, with, for example,
the largest two obligors accounting for 6.1% of the portfolio,
compared with the class E CE of 4.7%.

Fondo de Titulizacion de Activos Santander Empresas 3's senior
tranches were downgraded based on Fitch's revised view on default
probability, recovery and correlation assumptions as detailed in
the SME CDO rating criteria.  As with the two previous
transactions, this structure has also benefited from note
amortization and therefore increased CE.  However, due to the
transaction closing at least a year later, the amortization
affects were smaller than in the other structures, which resulted
in a more substantial downgrade.  More specifically, the class A2
and A3 notes have increased their CE to 18.7% respectively, which
compares to 26.7% or 48% for the class A notes in Fondo de
Titulizacion de Activos Santander Empresas 1 and 2.  Fitch
considers that the current CE level is commensurate with an 'A+'
rating.  Using a similar rationale, the mezzanine, class B and C
notes were downgraded by one rating category.  The class E notes
were downgraded due to their inability to withstand the default
and stressed recovery of the two largest obligors.  The class E
notes have CE of 2.4%, whereas the two largest obligors account
for 3.8% of the portfolio.

Fondo de Titulizacion de Activos Santander Empresas 4 was also
downgraded due to Fitch's revised view on default probability,
recovery and correlation.  Like Fondo de Titulizacion de Activos
Santander Empresas 3, this transaction has only benefited from a
limited period of note amortization and therefore the senior and
mezzanine notes have not built up sufficient cushions to withstand
the higher stresses applied in the new rating criteria.  The
downgrade of the junior tranches is principally driven by the
limited CE and sensitivity to obligor defaults.  Additionally, due
to relatively high delinquency rates in the portfolio the
structure has started to draw heavily on its reserve fund, using
EUR18.5 million in the period ending July 2009, further reducing
the CE available to all notes, but particularly affecting the
junior notes which are reliant on the structural support provided
by the reserve fund.

AROSA FUNDING: S&P Withdraws 'BB+' Rating on EUR100 Mil. Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services withdrew its BB+/Watch Neg
credit rating on the EUR100 million secured floating-rate credit-
linked series 2006-4 notes issued by Arosa Funding Ltd.

The withdrawal follows the early redemption of the notes, which
took place at the end of September 2009.


BLACKS LEISURE: In Talks with Lloyds Over Debt Restructuring Plan
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Esther Bintliff at The Financial Times reports that Blacks Leisure
Group plc is in talks with its lender, Lloyds Banking Group plc,
after the company presented a restructuring plan to the bank.

The FT recalls Lloyds agreed on a freeze of Black's banking
covenants in September, on the proviso the company delivered a
restructuring plan to address the future viability of the group by
October 30.

According to the FT, the company's pre-tax losses widened to
GBP18.1 million, from GBP6.7 million in the first half of 2008 due
to a further decline in sales and exceptional costs of placing its
boardwear subsidiary, Sandcity, into administration.  The
company's first-half sales fell to GBP125 million, down 6.1% on
the same period in 2008, the FT discloses.

                          Stake Ownership

Jonathan Browning at Bloomberg News reports Ernst & Young LLP,
Kaupthing Singer & Friedlander Ltd.'s administrators, will go to
court to determine who controls Mike Ashley's Sports Direct
International Plc's stakes in Blacks and JD Sports Fashion Plc.

Bloomberg relates Sports Direct on Oct. 27 said in an e-mailed
statement it "continues to resist" efforts to appropriate the
stakes and is "taking an action" against the administrators and
KSF.

KSF, which was put into administration by the U.K. government in
October 2008, holds 28.5% of the voting rights in Blacks and
11.9% JD Sports.

CATTLES PLC: RBS Claims Priority Over Bondholders
-------------------------------------------------
Jane Croft at The Financial Times reports that Royal Bank of
Scotland has argued in the High Court that it should have priority
over bondholders if Cattles plc went into administration.

According to the FT, RBS, which is the biggest bank lender to
Cattles, told the High Court that its claim ranks ahead of
bondholders because of a guarantee given to the banks by Welcome,
a Cattles subsidiary.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Oct. 29,
2009, the FT said the court will be asked to decide, in the event
of an administration, whether the construction of this guarantee
will mean Cattles' banks and private placement noteholders will
receive most of the cash the company gets back from its customers,
which bondholders dispute.

The hearing on the case between Cattles and Welcome concluded and
a judgment is expected, the FT notes.

The FT says a standstill arrangement with creditors is set to be
signed off in the coming days despite the ongoing dispute.

Cattles plc -- http://www.cattles.co.uk/-- is a financial
services company specializing in providing consumer credit to non-
standard customers in United Kingdom.  The Company also provides

DONINGTON HOLDINGS: Moody's Withdraws 'B3' Corporate Family Rating
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has withdrawn Donington Holdings PLC's
ratings for business reasons.  The decision follows the company
failure to issue the planned GBP135 million notes, which was one
of the basic assumptions supporting the ratings.

These ratings are withdrawn:

* Corporate Family Rating of B3

* Probability of Default Rating of B3

* The provisional senior secured rating on the proposed
  GBP135 million notes of (P)B3

The last rating action on Donington was on October 15, 2009 when
Moody's assigned to the issuer the above mentioned ratings.  That
was the first time Moody's assigned a rating to Donington.

Donington's ratings were assigned by evaluating factors Moody's
believe are relevant to the credit profile of the issuer, such as
(i) the business risk and competitive position of the issuer
versus others within its industry, (ii) the capital structure and
financial risk of the issuer, (iii) the projected performance of
the issuer over the near to intermediate term, and (iv)
management's track record and tolerance for risk.  These
attributes were compared against other issuers both within and
outside of Donington's core industry, and the issuer's ratings are
believed to be comparable to those of other issuers of similar
credit risk.

Donington Holdings plc is a newly incorporated company, and its
Group holds a 150-year lease on the land where Donington Park's
racing circuit, one of Britain's most popular circuits and home of
many events, is located.  Donington is attempting to secure enough
financing to modernize its facility in order to host the British
Formula One Grand Prix starting from 2010.


DONINGTON HOLDINGS: S&P Downgrades Corp. Credit Rating to 'CCC-'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that it lowered its long-
term corporate credit rating on U.K.-based racetrack operator
Donington Holdings PLC to 'CCC-' from 'CCC+' and placed the rating
on CreditWatch with negative implications.  At the same time, S&P
lowered the issue-level rating on Donington's GBP135 million
senior secured notes to 'CCC-' from 'CCC+' and placed the rating
on CreditWatch with negative implications.  The recovery rating on
the notes is unchanged at '4', indicating S&P's expectation of
average (30%-50%) recovery prospects for noteholders in the event
of a payment default.

"The rating action reflects S&P's understanding that the funding
plans for Donington's upgrade program have not materially
progressed," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Silvia Ortolan.

Donington proposed to raise a senior secured bond of
GBP135 million and GBP25 million of equity.  S&P understand that
this amount would be used to finance about GBP90 million of
construction costs, repay about GBP15 million of existing debt,
prefund interest due in 2010 of about GBP15 million, and finance
working capital of about GBP13 million and a GBP4 million lease
payment due.  The remaining GBP10 million would be used for
general expenses and fees.

S&P assesses Donington's business profile as vulnerable, which is
in keeping with S&P's views on single-property leisure operators
globally.  Donington's competitive position is, in its view,
weighed down by the wide availability of alternative entertainment
and sports events in the U.K.  However, its position is somewhat
supported by the unique nature of the facilities suitable for
international motor races.

"We aim to resolve the CreditWatch once there is clarity over the
funding plans, or in any event, within the next three months,"
said Ms. Ortolan.


FIRST QUENCH: Goes Into Administration; 6,500 Jobs at Risk
----------------------------------------------------------
Marcus Leroux and Dominic Walsh at The Times report that First
Quench Retailing has been placed into administration, putting
6,500 jobs at risk.

The Times relates First Quench brought in the accountants KPMG as
administrators Thursday night.

KPMG is seeking to sell the company as a going concern, the Times
says.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Oct. 29,
2009, the Financial Times disclosed earlier this year, First
Quench warned over its ability to continue as a going concern
after it was hit by a downturn in demand and the withdrawal of
credit insurance.

First Quench Group -- http://www.threshergroup.com/-- is a
specialist drinks retailer.  It operates Threshers, The Local,
Wine Rack and Haddows shops in England, Scotland and Wales.


GLOBE PUB: In Administrative Receivership; Heineken Buys Assets
---------------------------------------------------------------
Pan Kwan Yuk at The Financial Times reports that Globe Pub Company
has been placed into an administrative receivership.

Zolfo Cooper has been named as receiver.

According to the FT, Dutch brewer Heineken has acquired Globe's
estate of 421 leased and tenanted pubs via a new vehicle called
EBP Pub Company from receivers for GBP180 million (US$298
million).  The FT says Robert Tchenguiz, the pub operator's owner,
will have controlling stake of just over 50% per cent in the new
company through one of his investment vehicles.

Heineken is expecting to acquire full ownership of the estate in
the third quarter next year under a "conditional share purchase
agreement" with Mr. Tchenguiz, the FT states.  Proceeds from the
asset sale will be used to repay Globe's debts, the FT notes.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Europe on Oct. 29,
2009, the FT said Globe has been hit by the smoking ban in pubs,
the recession, soaring beer duty and cheap drinks in supermarkets.
The FT disclosed the pub group on a GBP257 million asset-backed
loan in April.

Globe Pub Company -- http://www.globepubcompany.co.uk/-- was
established in 2004 by R20, an investment company of Robert
Tchenguiz.


GLOBE PUB: S&P Downgrades Rating on Class B1 Notes to 'D'
---------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on the
class A1 and B1 notes issued by Globe Pub Issuer PLC to 'CC' and
'D', respectively.  This follows the note trustee's notice of an
issuer event of default, as well as S&P's own assessment that
there will not likely be sufficient funds to repay the noteholders
in full.

Following borrower event of default in March 2009, the trustee
appointed Zolfo Cooper LLC as the administrative receiver.  Zolfo
Cooper also agreed to sell the security for the notes, a portfolio
of U.K. pubs, for GBP180 million to EBP Pub Co., a joint venture
between Heineken and R20.  They reportedly did the sale under a
so-called "pre-pack" procedure.

In S&P's view, based on current estimates, the class A noteholders
may well achieve significant recoveries, but are likely to fall
short of the full interest and principal payments required under
the terms of the notes.  Under S&P's analysis, the class B
noteholders are not likely to recover any monies.  When S&P has
sufficient information regarding monies available for repayment of
the notes, there may be further rating action.

In addition to the GBP180 million reportedly realized on the sale
of the note security, S&P understands that there was approximately
GBP19.2 million of cash in the business as of Aug. 31, 2009.  S&P
understand that not all of this latter amount is eligible to repay
noteholders.

By S&P's analysis, Globe had been the weakest-performing U.K. pub
securitization under the current difficult trading conditions.
The debt service coverage ratio was 1.07x at the last reporting
date on Aug. 31, 2009, which is below the 1.1x covenant laid out
in the transaction documents.  S&P notes that at the time the
trustee appointed the administrative receiver, no payment default
had occurred on the notes.

INCA TECHNOLOGY: Administrators Complete Sale of Certain Assets
---------------------------------------------------------------
Avisen plc reports that on October 26, 2009, it received notice
that the administrators to its subsidiary, Inca Technology
International Limited, have completed the sale of certain of the
assets of Inca to an unconnected third party.

N A Bennett and M C Healy at Leonard Curtis of One Great
Cumberland Place, Marble Arch London W1H 7LW, were appointed as
administrators to Inca Technology on October 8, 2009, under the
Insolvency Act 1986.

Avisen has said the sale of certain assets of Inca Technology does
not affect any other company within the Avisen group.

Louis Peacock, a director of Avisen, is also a director of Inca
Technology.

The Assets sold include goodwill, chattel assets, intellectual
property rights, customer information, software products and
software product sales literature.

The terms of the agreement entered into by the administrators and
the vendor prohibit the Company from disclosing the name of the
purchaser and the level of proceeds from the sale.  In the event
that the administrator is able to make a distribution to
creditors, of which the Company is the largest, a further
announcement will be made at that time.

Inca Technology International Limited is a subsidiary of Avisen, a
business and technology consultancy specializing in performance
management with a focus on strategy creation, development and
implementation.


LLOYDS BANKING: Begins Investor Consultations on Rights Issue
-------------------------------------------------------------
Patrick Jenkins and Kate Burgess at The Financial Times report
that Lloyds Banking Group plc has begun detailed consultations
with investors about a GBP21 billion capital raising.

The FT relates Eric Daniels, chief executive, and advisers met
leading shareholders to discuss issuing GBP7.5 billion of
convertible bonds and a rights issue of GBP13 billion.  Citing
people involved in the discussions, the FT discloses the fund
raising would be launched by Wednesday, Nov. 4 at the latest.

The FT notes Alistair Darling, the chancellor, gave Lloyds the
go-ahead to test the market on plans to raise capital from
shareholders as an alternative to the government's toxic asset
insurance scheme, which would cost the bank GBP15.6 billion over
five years.  According to the FT, the government has said that it
would support the rights issue and take up its full allocation of
new shares to maintain its 43.5% stake, adding about GBP6 billion
to the GBP17 billion it has injected into the bank since January.

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
