BANCO DAYCOVAL: S&P Assigns 'BB' LT Debt Rating to 2016 Notes
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its 'BB' senior
unsecured long-term debt rating to Banco Daycoval S.A.'s
(BB/Positive/B; Brazil national scale: brAA-/Positive/brA-1) up to
US$500 million senior unsecured notes due in 2016.
The rating on the notes is the same as "our" counterparty credit
rating on Banco Daycoval, reflecting "our" view that the notes
will rank pari passu with other senior unsecured debt, and that
they will be direct, unsecured, unsubordinated, and unconditional
obligations of Banco Daycoval S.A. The proceeds will be used for
funding diversification and expanding credit operations.
The ratings on Banco Daycoval S.A. reflect the bank's challenge to
expand its loan portfolio under adequate credit-underwriting
procedures. Strong capitalization and a consistent track record
in its core business in collateral-backed loans to small and
midsize enterprises (SMEs) have led to asset quality and
profitability historically better than peers'.
Daycoval is a midsize Brazilian bank with total reported assets of
BRL9.2 billion at September 2010. The bank posted a high 3.6%
return on average assets as of September 2010, benefiting from an
improved net interest margin, a focus on cost efficiencies, and
lower provisioning. The bank has been diversifying toward the
retail sector during the past three years by focusing on payroll
discount lending and auto loans, which represented 25% and 10% of
the total portfolio, respectively, at September 2010. SMEs remain
Daycoval's core business, representing 65% of total loans.

New Rating
US$500 Mil. Sr. Unsec. Notes Due 2016 BB
BANCO DAYCOVAL: Fitch Rates $300 Mil. Sr. Unsecured Notes at 'BB'
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has assigned Banco Daycoval S.A.'s upcoming five-
year USD senior unsecured notes an expected long-term foreign
currency rating of 'BB'. The final rating is contingent upon the
receipt of final documents conforming to information already
received.
The notes, which will mature in 2016, will be issued for an amount
to be determined and will carry a fixed interest rate set at the
time of the issuance; interest payments will be made semiannually.
The notes will be senior, unsecured liabilities of Daycoval and
will rank simultaneously with all of the bank's other present and
future unsecured and unsubordinated liabilities. This issuance is
part of a Euro medium-term notes program of up to US$2 billion,
and its proceeds shall be used to extend the bank's funding
structure and to enable new business generation.
Daycoval's Issuer Default Ratings reflect its consistent track
record of profitability, making it well-positioned regionally; its
strong capitalization, which is better than its peers; and prudent
management of liquidity, maintaining high liquid assets even in
stressful times. Conversely, the ratings also factor in
Daycoval's medium size, its consequent asset and liability
concentrations, and the challenge of finding more diversified
funding channels and revenue sources.
Incorporated in 1968, Daycoval is controlled by the Dayan family.
Since 2007, its shares have been traded on the Sao Paulo Stock,
Commodities, and Futures Exchange.
Fitch currently rates Daycoval as:
* Long-term foreign currency IDR 'BB'; Outlook Stable;
* Long-term local currency IDR 'BB'; Outlook Stable;
* Short-term foreign currency IDR 'B';
* Short-term local currency IDR 'B';
* Individual Rating 'C/D';
* Support '5';
* Support Floor 'No Floor';
* National Long-term Rating 'A+(bra)'; Outlook Stable;
* National Short-term Rating 'F1(bra)'.
In addition, Fitch assigned the following long-term foreign
currency rating: USD300 million senior unsecured notes 'BB'.
CARNES SANTA: Creditors' Proofs of Debt Due March 2

accounting and banking records will be submitted in court on

BRAZILIAN FINANCE: Fitch Assigns LT Issuer Default Ratings at BB-
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings assigned the following ratings to Brazilian Finance
& Real Estate and its subsidiaries, Brazilian Securities Cia. de
Securitizacao and Brazilian Mortgages Cia. Hipotecaria (BM):
* Foreign and Local Currency Long-term Issuer Default Ratings
(IDRs) 'BB-'; Outlook Stable;
* Foreign and Local Currency Short-term IDRs 'B';
* National Long-term Rating 'A-(bra)'; Outlook Stable;
* National Short-term Rating 'F2(bra)'.
BFRE's IDRs and its National Ratings reflect the integrated
operation between group companies, which are well positioned
throughout the increasing real estate financial market chain
within the country, with clearly identified and well-controlled
risks and managed by an experienced and conservative team. The
ratings also consider its good credit quality and satisfactory
performance. On the other hand, they take into account the recent
operation of this growing franchise and concentration in the
modest Brazilian real estate market with correlation with the
risks inherent in the industry and BFRE's higher dependence on
institutional funding and on favorable capital market conditions
to finance all phases of its cycle.
BS and BM's are the same as those of its parent, BRFE, which
reflects its strategic importance to the group's operations. The
ratings also consider the centralized risk controls at BFRE where
all group exposures are managed. Despite the strong synergy among
group companies, shareholders grant autonomy to managers to
implement day-to-day activities, and companies are structured to
operate irrespective of the controller, both on a financial and on
an operational basis.
BFRE's ratings could be impacted by a strong deterioration in
credit quality and on the conditions to refinance the portfolio,
which are unlikely over the medium term. In addition, a strongly
negative performance of third party funds under management and of
real estate receivable certificates issued could also affect the
group's image. BS and BM's ratings are linked to those of BFRE.
Increasing economic stability and the creation of the Real Estate
Financing System, in 1997, have offered better conditions for the
expansion of the real estate market in the country, mainly due to
higher legal comfort enabled by contracts guaranteed by fiduciary
alienation of the property and new types of funding offered by the
market, such as the securitization of receivables backed by real
estate financings.
The volume CRIs issued in the market during the first half of
2010 was BRL3.2 billion. Out of this total, BFRE, through its
securitization company, holds a significant market share of 32%,
showing its experience and access to local investors. In June
2010, the company recorded an accumulated balance of CRIs issued
in the amount of BRL3.7 billion, fully without recourse and
delinquency above 90 days of only 0.3%. Leverage of the loan
portfolio generated by the real estate financing subsidiary and
held in BFRE's balance sheet is low with good credit quality due
to the stringent credit process and guarantees, which are quite
above the loan value. However, this is a relatively new
portfolio, which requires its credit quality to be monitored
for a longer time.
BFRE has shown good access to the local market, although funding
is reliant upon institutional investors. Market/liquidity risk is
relatively low as the group maintains high levels of liquid
assets, has adequately matched asset and liability rates and
terms, and also benefits from non-recourse securitization.
Operating risk is also low, while capitalization is high and
presents good quality.
BFRE group is controlled by Ourinvest Real Estate Holding S.A.,
with 70.56% of the voting capital and 34% of the total capital.
The remaining shares are held by two international investors.
Fitch does not have information on shareholders' capacity and
willingness to provide capital if needed, and thus, does not take
into account their support to the group's companies.
Incorporated in 2000, BS, a securitization company, is a
nonfinancial institution regulated by the Brazilian Securities and
Exchange Commission. BM, in turn, was incorporated in 1999 and is
a financial institution that mainly operates with construction
financing to real estate developers and builders and for the
acquisition of residential and commercial properties by
individuals.
TAM SA: Signs Business Combination Agreements With LAN Airlines
---------------------------------------------------------------
TAM S.A. and LAN Airlines S.A. disclosed the signing of the
binding agreements between both companies and their respective
controlling shareholders, in line with the memorandum of
understanding signed on August 13, 2010. These binding
agreements, include an Implementation Agreement and an Exchange
Offer Agreement containing the definitive terms and conditions of
the proposed business combination of LAN and TAM. This
transaction remains subject to approval of Agencia Nacional de
Aviacao Civil of Brazil and other relevant government authorities.
The Executed Contracts were approved by the Boards of Directors of
both LAN and TAM at meetings held on January 18, 2011 in Chile and
Brazil. The Boards of Directors of LAN and TAM approved the
binding documents and agreed to recommend to their respective
shareholders the approval of the transaction.
Pursuant to the Executed Contracts and through several corporate
restructurings to be implemented in Chile and Brazil, and an
exchange offer addressed to all holders of TAM stock, the new
organizational structure of the combined entity will be as shown
in the chart below, assuming all TAM shareholders tender their
shares into the exchange offer:
Enrique Cueto, CEO of LAN Airlines said: "We are pleased to
announce that LAN and TAM are taking a new and very important step
towards building one of the leading airline groups in the world.
[The] announcement confirms the commitment that we share with our
friends at TAM, which is a strong passion and determination to
provide millions of Latin American passengers with better service,
always certain of the great potential of the Latin American
market."
"As regional leaders, TAM and LAN make a natural move in the
global trend of consolidation in the airline sector. We believe
this is the best way to guarantee our companies' growth, in a
scenario of high competition and growing demand. We are confident
that, after all the required approvals, we will be able to offer
even more advantages to our customers, employees and
stockholders", says Marco Antonio Bologna, TAM S.A.'s CEO.
Regarding the structure of the transaction, substantially all of
the voting stock of TAM is expected to be acquired by a new
Chilean corporation ("Holdco 1"). The share capital of Holdco 1
will be divided into two series:
(i) one series of voting stock, which will have no economic
rights other than nominal dividend rights, and
(ii) one series of non-voting stock, which will have
substantially all of the economic rights.
The share capital of Holdco 1 will be distributed as follows: (x)
at least 80% of the voting stock will be acquired and held
indirectly by the Amaro family through a new Chilean corporation,
and no more than 20% of the voting stock will be acquired and held
by LAN, and (y) 100% of the non-voting stock will be acquired and
held by LAN.
The non-voting stock of TAM indirectly held by the Amaro family
will be contributed by them to a new wholly-owned Chilean
corporation. Holdco 1 will incorporate a new Chilean corporation,
which will launch a delisting exchange offer pursuant to which all
the holders of TAM stock may tender their shares in exchange for
the same number of shares of Holdco 2.
Simultaneously with the settlement of the Exchange Offer, Holdco 2
and Sister Holdco will merge into LAN, with LAN being the
surviving entity. The exchange ratio in the mergers will be 0.9
shares of LAN per share of Sister Holdco and Holdco 2, whose sole
assets will be the TAM shares contributed by the Amaro family and
acquired in the Exchange Offer, respectively.
The commencement of the Exchange Offer will be subject to
conditions customary for transactions of this nature, including:
(i) that the shareholders of LAN approve the mergers,
(ii) that no more than 2.5% of holders of LAN stock shall have
exercised their appraisal rights (derecho a retiro) under
Chilean law and
(iii) receipt of approvals from and/or registrations with ANAC,
the Comissao de Valores Mobiliarios of Brazil, the
Superintendencia de Valores y Seguros of Chile, the
Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States of
America and the applicable antitrust authorities in the
relevant countries.
The consummation of the Exchange Offer will be subject to the
additional minimum conditions that the number of shares tendered
and not withdrawn from, or that otherwise approve, the exchange
offer are sufficient under Brazilian law to:
(i) permit the delisting of the TAM stock from the BM&FBovespa,
and
(ii) give LAN the right and ability to effect a statutory
squeeze-out of all TAM stock that do not accept the
Exchange Offer.
The transaction contemplates that the LAN stock will be listed in
Brazil in the Bovespa as Brazilian Depositary Receipts and will
continue to be listed in Chile and in the New York Stock Exchange
as American Depositary Receipts. The TAM stock will cease to be
listed in the Bovespa and in the NYSE as American Depositary
Receipts.
LAN's name will be changed to "LATAM Airlines Group S.A.", and the
share capital of LAN will be distributed approximately as follows
(assuming a 100% of the holders of TAM stock, other than the Amaro
family, tender their shares into the Exchange Offer):
(i) LAN controlling shareholders, 24.07%;
(ii) TEP Chile, 13.67%;
(iii) other existing shareholders of LAN, 46.60%; and
(iv) tendering holders of TAM stock, 15.65%.
Upon consummation of the transaction, LAN, TAM and their
respective subsidiaries will continue their airline operations as
presently conducted. The Chairman of the Board of LATAM shall be
Mauricio Rolim Amaro. Enrique Cueto shall remain as Chief
Executive Officer of LATAM and Ignacio Cueto shall remain in his
current capacity as President and Chief Operating Officer of LAN's
current operations. The Chairman of the Board of TAM shall
continue to be Maria Claudia Oliveira Amaro, and the Chief
Executive Officer shall be Marco Bologna.
Completion of this transaction is expected to take between six to
nine months. The proposed combination of LAN and TAM as LATAM
will produce an airline group that will be among the major 10 in
the world. LATAM will provide transport services for passengers
and cargo to more than 115 destinations in 23 countries, operating
a fleet of more than 280 aircrafts and will have over 40,000
employees.

VITRO SAB: Attachment Disputes Return to N.Y. State Court
---------------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle, the bankruptcy columnist for Bloomberg News,
reports that the location of some lawsuits between Vitro SAB and
bondholders is changing again, this time in the wake of a decision
by a judge in Mexico this month dismissing Vitro's reorganization
proceedings in Mexico.
Mr. Rochelle relates that in addition to involuntary Chapter 11
petitions that some bondholders filed against Vitro's U.S.
subsidiaries, bondholders had obtained attachments of property
through state courts in New York. The attachments were aiming to
recover on the US$1.2 billion of bonds in default for about two
years.
According to Mr. Rochelle, before the Mexican reorganization was
dismissed, Vitro had the attachment suits moved into the
bankruptcy court in New York. With the Mexican reorganization
dismissed and the basis for the Chapter 15 petition in doubt,
Vitro consented last week to sending the attachments suits back to
New York state court.
About Vitro SAB
Headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico, Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV:
VITROA; NYSE: VTO), through its two subsidiaries, Vitro Envases
Norteamerica, SA de C.V. and Vimexico, S.A. de C.V., is a global
glass producer, serving the construction and automotive glass
markets and glass containers needs of the food, beverage, wine,
liquor, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries.
Vitro is the largest manufacturer of glass containers and flat
glass in Mexico, with consolidated net sales in 2009 of
MXN23,991 million (US$1.837 billion).
Vitro defaulted on its debt in 2009, and is now seeking to
restructure around US$1.5 billion in debt, including US$1.2
billion in notes.
Vitro launched an offer to buy back or swap US$1.2 billion in debt
from bondholders. The tender offer would be consummated with a
bankruptcy filing in Mexico and Chapter 15 filing in the United
States. Vitro said noteholders would recover as much as 73% by
exchanging existing debt for cash, new debt or convertible bonds.
The offer was to expire December 7.
Noteholders who oppose the exchange, namely Knighthead Master
Fund, L.P., Lord Abbett Bond-Debenture Fund, Inc., Davidson
Kempner Distressed Opportunities Fund LP, and Brookville Horizons
Fund, L.P. -- which hold US$75 million, or approximately 6% of the
outstanding bond debt -- commenced involuntary bankruptcy cases
under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code against Vitro Asset
Corp. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47470) and nine other
affiliates on November 17, 2010.
Vitro engaged Susman Godfrey, L.L.P. as U.S. special litigation
Counsel to analyze the potential rights that Vitro may exercise in
the United States against the ad hoc group of dissident
bondholders and its advisors.
A larger group of noteholders, known as the Ad Hoc Group of Vitro
Noteholders -- comprised of holders, or investment advisors to
holders, which represent approximately US$650 million of the
Senior Notes due 2012, 2013 and 2017 issued by Vitro -- was not
among the Chapter 11 petitioners, although the group has expressed
concerns over the exchange offer. The group says the exchange
offer exposes Noteholders who consent to potential adverse
consequences that have not been disclosed by Vitro. The group is
represented by John Cunningham, Esq., and Richard Kebrdle, Esq. at
White & Case LLP.
The U.S. affiliates subject to the involuntary petitions are
Vitro Chemicals, Fibers & Mining, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case
No. 10-47472); Vitro America, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No.
10-47473); Troper Services, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No.
10-47474); Super Sky Products, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No.
10-47475); Super Sky International, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case
No. 10-47476); VVP Holdings, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No.
10-47477); Amsilco Holdings, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No.
10-47478); B.B.O. Holdings, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No.
10-47479); Binswanger Glass Company (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No.
10-47480); Crisa Corporation (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47481);
VVP Finance Corporation (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47482); VVP
Auto Glass, Inc. (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47483); V-MX
Holdings, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47484); and Vitro
Packaging, LLC (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 10-47485).
Vitro SAB on December 13, 2010, filed its voluntary petition for a
pre-packaged Concurso Plan in the Federal District Court for Civil
and Labor Matters for the State of Nuevo Leon, thereby commencing
its voluntary concurso mercantil proceedings. Vitro SAB believes
that, as a result of the implementation of the Concurso Plan
through the Mexican Proceeding, the holders of the Restructured
Debt will recover 68% to 75% of the face value of their respective
claims.
Vitro SAB also commenced parallel proceedings under Chapter 15 of
the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. Case No. 10-16619) in
Manhattan on December 13, 2010, to seek U.S. recognition and
deference to its bankruptcy proceedings in Mexico.
Alejandro Francisco Sanchez-Mujica, as foreign representative of
Vitro, has asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court to enter an order
recognizing the Mexican Proceeding as "foreign main proceeding"
pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Secs. 1515 and 1517.
Early in January 2011, the Mexican Court dismissed the Concurso
Mercantil proceedings.
***********
Monday's edition of the TCR-LA delivers a list of indicative
prices for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par.
Prices are obtained by TCR-LA editors from a variety of outside
sources during the prior week we think are reliable. Those
sources may not, however, be complete or accurate. The Monday
Bond Pricing table is compiled on the Friday prior to
publication. Prices reported are not intended to reflect actual
trades. Prices for actual trades are probably different. Our
objective is to share information, not make markets in publicly
traded securities. Nothing in the TCR-LA constitutes an offer
or solicitation to buy or sell any security of any kind. It is
likely that some entity affiliated with a TCR-LA editor holds
some position in the issuers' public debt and equity securities
about which we report.
Tuesday's edition of the TCR-LA features a list of companies
with insolvent balance sheets obtained by our editors based on
the latest balance sheets publicly available a day prior to
publication. At first glance, this list may look like the
definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled. Assets, for example, reported at historical
cost net of depreciation may understate the true value of a
firm's assets. A company may establish reserves on its balance
sheet for liabilities that may never materialize. The prices at
which equity securities trade in public market are determined by
more than a balance sheet solvency test.
A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Thursday's edition of the TCR-LA. Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged. Send announcements to
