capital deficit.

                       Going Concern Doubt

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on April 22, 2008,
BDO Seidman LLP, in West Palm Beach, Fla., expressed substantial
doubt about a21 Inc.'s ability to continue as a going concern
after auditing the company's consolidated financial statements for
the year ended Dec. 31, 2007.  The auditing firm pointed to the
company's recurring losses from operations and net capital
deficiency.


ADVANCED MICRO: To Create Foundry Company with Advanced Technology
------------------------------------------------------------------
Advanced Micro Devices Inc. disclosed in a Securities and Exchange
Commission filing that on Oct. 7, 2008, the company and the
Advanced Technology Investment Company agreed to create a new
global enterprise, The Foundry Company, to address the growing
global demand for independent, leading-edge semiconductor
manufacturing.

There is a strong shift to foundries occurring -- particularly to
foundries with the capacity to produce devices using leading-edge
process technologies. With The Foundry Company, AMD will be able
to unlock the value of its world-class manufacturing capability --
by making it available to a growing community of fabless
semiconductor companies.

The Foundry Company will begin with key strengths needed to build
a successful leading-edge manufacturing company: a history of
manufacturing excellence through AMD, committed capital, talented
workforce and intellectual capital, and a strong, long-term
technology partnership with IBM.

To scale capacity, The Foundry Company intends to proceed with a
planned capacity expansion in Dresden, Germany.  In addition, the
company plans, subject to the transfer of approved New York State
incentives, to begin construction on a new state-of-the-art
facility in Saratoga County, New York, creating more than 1,465
highly-skilled, advanced manufacturing jobs and stimulating the
creation of thousands more local jobs.  Once operational, the New
York facility will be the only independently-managed leading-edge
semiconductor manufacturing foundry in the United States.

AMD will file a proxy statement pursuant to which its board of
directors will solicit proxies in connection with seeking AMD
stockholder approval of the issuance of AMD shares and warrants
pursuant to the Master Transaction Agreement with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

Under the agreement, Vicis will purchase:

      Class A Common Stock.  

The Company received the $2,000,000 purchase price payment on
Oct. 2, 2008.

AMERICAN AXLE: S&P Cuts Corp. Credit Rating to 'B'; Watch Negative
------------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on American
Axle & Manufacturing Holdings Inc., including the corporate credit
rating to 'B' from 'B+'.  At the same time, S&P placed the company
on CreditWatch with negative implications, reflecting the rapidly
weakening state of most global automotive markets, along with
capital market conditions that will remain a serious challenge for
the foreseeable future.

S&P placed General Motors Corp. on CreditWatch with negative
implications.  American Axle's revenue is heavily dependent on
sales of General Motor's SUVs and pickup trucks and demand in
these markets has weakened substantially.

"We believe American Axle currently has sufficient liquidity for
the near future as measured by cash balances and available bank
facilities," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Lawrence
Orlowski, "but covenants under the company's currently unsecured
bank facility could become an issue in the coming quarters."


AMERICAN FIBERS: Creditors Object to GE's $7.7MM Financing
----------------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle of Bloomberg News reports that the Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditor of American Fibers & Yarns Co. and
AFY Holding Co. objected to the $7.7 million in secured financing
offered by pre-bankruptcy lender General Electric Capital Corp.

The Committee, according to the report, also opposes the Debtors'
proposed bonus plan for senior executives, saying that that the
"main purpose" of the loan is "to finance the liquidation of the
debtor's assets for the primary benefit" of General Electric.

Besides protesting that the loan costs too much in fees, the
Committee, according to the report, says they should be allowed to
challenge the validity of General Electric's pre-bankruptcy
security interests.  

The Dec. 6 expiration of the loan, the Committee argues, doesn't
provide enough time to pursue sales that might produce more value
for creditors, according to the report.

At the same time, the Debtors, according to the report, filed a
separate motion with the Court asking for approval of two bonus
programs, one for three top officers and another for other
workers.  Terms of the programs are being kept secret, so
there is nothing on public file in the Court saying how much will
be paid to whom on what conditions, according to the report.

The motion does say that the three top officers will qualify
for a bonus if a sale of the assets generates enough to pay
General Electric in full, according to the report.  The executives
would be entitled to additional bonuses depending on the sale
price, according to the report.

The motion, according to the report, doesn't say how many other
employees are eligible for bonuses, nor are the terms explained.

The Committee and the U.S. Trustee are both objecting to the
bonuses.

The Court has scheduled a hearing for the secured financing and
the bonus programs for Oct. 14, 2008.

AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL: Uses Additional $9BB From Gov't Loan
------------------------------------------------------------
Liam Pleven, Carrick Mollenkamp, and Craig Karmin at The Wall
Street Journal report that American International Group Inc. drew
down another $9 billion from the federal loan to meet demands for
cash from its trading partners.  According to WSJ, AIG has now
borrowed $70.3 billion from the government in three weeks.  WSJ
says that the government raised the loan it is offering to AIG to
$122.8 billion on Wednesday, due to the threat of losses from
AIG's lending program.

WSJ quoted a person familiar with the matter, "The Fed had no idea
the capital markets would seize up and the stock markets would
keep falling; both put AIG in a severe cash bind."

WSJ relates that much of the Fed's original loan to AIG was used
to:

     -- providing collateral to AIG's trading partners on
        complex derivatives known as credit default swaps, and

     -- covering losses in AIG's securities-lending program.

Citing Texas Department of Insurance's chief financial analyst
Doug Slape, WSJ states that AIG's securities-lender customers
"flooded the program for their collateral, creating a mini-run" on
the company.  Mr. Slape said that AIG started drawing down on the
federal loan commitment to cover the collateral requests,
according to the report.

The insurance department is keeping an eye on three AIG insurance
units due to the securities-lending exposure, WSJ relates, citing
Mr. Slape.  California Department of Insurance spokesperson,
Darrel Ng, said that the state is looking at the securities-
lending practices of insurers in California, WSJ states.  
According to the report, the New York Fed and outside experts that
the Fed hired are trying to assess how money is flowing within and
from AIG, and has been sending personnel to AIG divisions to
assess the company's risks and its risk-management procedures.

              US$85,000,000,000 Federal Reserve Loan

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York extended to AIG a revolving
credit facility up to US$85 billion.  AIG's borrowings under the
revolving credit facility will bear interest, for each day, at a
rate per annum equal to three-month Libor plus 8.50%.  The
revolving credit facility will have a 24-month term and will be
secured by a pledge of assets of AIG and various subsidiaries.

The Credit Facility provides for a 79.9% equity interest in AIG.  
The Credit Facility provides for an initial gross commitment fee
of 2% of the total Credit Facility on the closing date.

AIG, in a regulatory filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, said it will pay a commitment fee on undrawn amounts
at the rate of 8.5% per annum.  Interest and the commitment fees
are generally payable through an increase in the outstanding
balance under the Credit Facility.  Borrowings under the Credit
Facility are conditioned on the NY Fed being reasonably satisfied
with, among other things, AIG's corporate governance.

AIG is required to repay the Credit Facility from, among other
things, the proceeds of certain asset sales and issuances of debt
or equity securities. These mandatory repayments permanently
reduce the amount available to be borrowed under the Credit
Facility.

In a statement, the company said "AIG is a solid company with over
US$1 trillion in assets and substantial equity, but it has been
recently experiencing serious liquidity issues."

Standard & Poor's Ratings Services has revised the CreditWatch
status of most of its ratings on the AIG group of companies --
including its 'A-' long-term counterparty credit ratings on
American International Group Inc. and International Lease Finance
Corp. and the 'A+' counterparty credit and financial strength
ratings on most of AIG's insurance operating subsidiaries -- to
CreditWatch developing from CreditWatch negative.

Fitch Ratings revised its Rating Watch on American International
Group, Inc. to Evolving from Negative.  Fitch viewed this
transaction as a favorable development that alleviates significant
near-term liquidity concerns.

The Troubled Company Reporter reported on Sept. 19, 2008 that that
Edward Liddy replaced Robert Willumstad as AIG's CEO.

                          *     *     *

In a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing dated
Aug. 6, 2008, AIG reported a net loss for the second quarter of
2008 of US$5.36 billion compared to 2007 second quarter net income
of US$4.28 billion.  Second quarter 2008 adjusted net loss was
US$1.32 billion, compared to adjusted net income of US$4.63
billion for the second quarter of 2007.  The continuation of the
weak U.S. housing market and disruption in the credit markets, as
well as global equity market volatility, had a substantial adverse
effect on AIG's results in the second quarter.

Net loss for the first six months of 2008 was US$13.16 billion,
compared to net income of US$8.41 billion in the first six months
of 2007.  Adjusted net loss for the first six months of 2008 was
US$4.88 billion, compared to adjusted net income of US$9.02
billion in the first six months of 2007.


AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL: Gov't to Name Trustees to Manage Stake
--------------------------------------------------------------
Sudeep Reddy at The Wall Street Journal reports that the Federal
Reserve will appoint trustees to oversee the U.S. government's
almost 80% stake stake in American International Group, Inc.

According to WSJ, the central bank will select within two weeks
three individuals with business experience to manage the stake and
voting rights in AIG, taking over that role from the Federal
Reserve and Treasury officials.

WSJ states that the trustees would eventually sell the government
shares, and the proceeds would go into federal coffers.  The
report says that the trustees would hire their own advisers.

WSJ relates that as lender, the Federal Reserve is responsible for
ensuring that AIG pays interest on the government loan and repays
the central bank.  According to the report, the government might
want to operate AIG more aggressively to boost the company's
value, to ensure that taxpayers have a better chance of being
rewarded.

AIG, says WSJ, will maintain a board of directors, but the loan
agreement allows the trustees to appoint or replace the directors.
AIG said in a statement that its agreement with the government
requires the company "to use reasonable efforts" to make its board
"satisfactory to the trust" within 10 days of the trust's
creation.

Federal Reserve officials expect to remain involved in discussions
about asset sales as they are critical to the AIG loans being
repaid, WSJ states.

ARIAD PHARMACEUTICALS: Delaware Court Permits Embrel Ruling Appeal
------------------------------------------------------------------
ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. disclosed in a Securities and Exchange
Commission filing that the U.S. District Court for the District of
Delaware granted its motion to permit an immediate appeal of the
Court's summary judgment ruling of non-infringement by Amgen's
drug, Enbrel(R) (etanercept), of seven claims of U.S. Patent No.
6,410,516.  The Court also canceled the trial scheduled for
November 2008 and administratively closed the case at this time.

In its summary judgment ruling, the Court found that the
administration of Enbrel falls outside the scope of the asserted
claims based on the Court's interpretation of these claims to
exclude extracellular methods of reducing NF-baB activity.  In its
appeal, ARIAD will seek reinterpretation of the asserted '516
patent claims by the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit so
that ARIAD's infringement case against Amgen may be tried by the
Delaware Court. Amgen's challenges to the validity and
enforceability of the '516 patent claims will not be considered by
the Delaware Court until that time.

"We appreciate the Judge's ruling and now plan to proceed promptly
with our appeal to the Federal Circuit," said Harvey J. Berger,
M.D., chairman and chief executive officer of ARIAD.  "A ruling on
this appeal is expected to take approximately 12 to 18 months."

The '516 Patent, issued in 2002, is based on the pioneering
discoveries made by research groups led by Professors David
Baltimore, Phillip Sharp and Tom Maniatis at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, The Whitehead Institute for Biomedical
Research, and Harvard University.  ARIAD is the exclusive licensee
of the technology and patents.

On Sept. 26, 2008, Divash Capital Partners LLC agreed to purchase
$325,000 of principal amount of the Company's outstanding 13%
Secured Convertible Debentures due March 30, 2009 from the holders
of such Debentures.  In addition, Divash has the option to
purchase, at any time prior to April 1, 2009, $275,000 of
additional Debentures from the holders.  In connection with the
acquisition of the Debentures, the Company agreed to issue to
Divash a 9% Convertible Debenture due Sept. 30, 2010 in the
principal amount of $172,500. The New Debenture was issued without
any further cash consideration and is convertible at a conversion
price of $1.50 per share.

On Sept. 26, 2008, the holders of the remaining outstanding
Debentures and of the Company's Series B 13% Secured Convertible
Debenture due March 30, 2009 agreed to amend the Debentures and
Series B Debenture:

   -- to reduce the annual interest rate from 13% to 9%;

      2010; and

   -- to eliminate the debenture holders' security interest in the
      assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Simultaneous with the purchase of $325,000 of the Debentures on
September 29, 2008, Divash converted all such Debentures into
812,500 shares of the company's Common Stock.  ADH Ventures LLC
also agreed to convert, at a conversion price of $.30 per share,
$389,200.20 of its Debentures into 1,297,334 shares of the
Company's Common Stock.  Previously, on Aug. 11, 2008, ADH
converted $282,564 of the Debentures into 706,410 shares of the
Company's Common Stock.  In consideration for ADH's agreement to
convert the Debentures on Sept. 29, 2008 and to amend its
Debentures and Series B Debenture, ADH's remaining Debentures in
the principal amount of approximately $78,236 and its Series B
Debentures in the principal amount of $200,000 were amended to
reduce the conversion price from $.40 per share to $.30 per share.

BRUNSWICK CORP: Will Close Plants, Suspend Some Production
----------------------------------------------------------
Brunswick Corp. will accelerate its previously disclosed efforts
to resize the company and to remove $300 million in fixed costs by
the end of 2009.  Brunswick had planned to close four boat
manufacturing facilities in early 2009, but will now accelerate
that process.  Three manufacturing facilities to be permanently
closed are in Pipestone, Minn., Roseburg, Ore., and Arlington,
Wash.  A fourth plant, in Navassa, N.C., will be mothballed.

Production of the fiberglass boats manufactured in these plants
will be transitioned to other Brunswick facilities.  The company
said that these actions will result in the eventual elimination of
approximately 1,450 hourly and salaried positions at these
facilities, while increasing the efficiency and utilization at the
receiving plants.  The Arlington, Navassa, and Roseburg shutdowns
are expected to be completed by the end of 2008, with the
Pipestone shutdown expected to be completed during the first
quarter of 2009.

Brunswick Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Dustan E. McCoy
said, "In these difficult times as we move into the slowest
selling season in the marine industry, it is clear that we must
aggressively support our dealer network as they cope with the
effects of the economic turbulence.  Among the significant actions
we can take is to meter the production of boats consistent with
demand, which is in a pronounced downturn across all consumer
durable industries, including the recreational marine industry."

Brunswick will temporarily suspend production at three of its boat
manufacturing facilities near Knoxville, beginning the week of
Oct. 27 and continuing through the remainder of 2008.  During this
period, the transition of boat models from the plants that are
closing into these facilities will begin.

                     Financial Implications

Mr. McCoy said, "Our efforts to reduce production and cut costs
have helped to mitigate some of the challenges we have faced in
2008, as well as prepare and position Brunswick to prosper in an
improved economic environment.  We remain on target to reduce
fixed costs by $300 million by the end of 2009 compared with 2007
spending levels, and expect to exit 2008 with more than $125
million of fixed-cost reductions implemented.  In fact, actions
completed or currently under way will deliver about $75 million of
cost savings this year.  We also continue our intense focus on
liquidity and expect to report cash at the end of the third
quarter of approximately $340 million.

"As noted above, however, we will be closing plants and
temporarily suspending production at others, which will result in
significantly lower sales in the fourth quarter.  Given the effect
of lower fixed-cost absorption on these reduced sales in the
remainder of 2008, we are no longer confident of achieving our
goal of posting positive earnings for the full year, excluding
restructuring and impairment charges," Mr.  McCoy stated.

The company said its estimate of restructuring charges to achieve
its cost reduction targets remains in the range of
$200 million to $220 million pretax, of which approximately $180
million will be recorded in 2008.  These charges include asset
write-downs, severance and facility closing and other costs.  Of
the total restructuring costs, approximately half will be cash.

Further, as prescribed by SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets, the company concluded that a significant
portion of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles was
impaired.  Accordingly, the company said it will record non-cash
goodwill and trade name impairment charges, associated primarily
with certain boat brands, totaling approximately
$496 million pretax in the third quarter.

Mr. McCoy said, "We are living and working in the most turbulent
economic times in recent history.  From the start of the year,
we've experienced a 3,500-point drop in the Dow, mortgage and
housing crises, record prices for oil, and, now, shrinking credit
availability for companies and individuals.  The poor economy and
the accompanying weak consumer sentiment have pressured marine
markets, eroding the demand for boats and engines these past few
months at a swifter pace than originally anticipated."

"For the past few years, Brunswick has been implementing a
strategy to fundamentally transform the way we design, engineer
and manufacture our products; shrink our manufacturing footprint
so that each facility produces at higher volumes and lower costs;
and reduce our level of fixed costs in our manufacturing
operations and within operating expenses.  While these times are
unprecedented, they provide an opportunity and mandate, consistent
with the pursuit of our strategy, that we step up our efforts to
accomplish our restructuring goals," Mr. McCoy state.

CADENCE INNOVATION: Court Approves $50 Mil. BofA DIP Facility
-------------------------------------------------------------
Cadence Innovation, LLC, and New Venture Real Estate Holdings,
LLC, obtained final approval from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the District of Delaware to borrow $50,000,000 from lenders,
represented by Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent.

The Bankruptcy Court agreed that the Debtors need the loan to
operate their business given their lack of available sources
of working capital.  

"The ability of Debtors to obtain sufficient working capital and
liquidity through the incurrence of new indebtedness for borrowed
money is vital to the preservation and maintenance of the going
concern values of Debtors," the Court said in its Oct. 3 order.  

The Debtors intend to use the loan to pay their pre-bankruptcy
lenders, which are owed $44,408,011 as of August 26.  They also
intend to use the loan for payment of cost they would incur from
administering their bankruptcy cases, for working capital and for
general corporate purposes.

In return for the financing, Bank of America, as agent for
lenders under the debtor-in-possession (DIP) credit agreement, is
granted a "superpriority" claim status.  The bank is also granted
lien on the Debtors' properties including cash, accounts
receivable, inventories, equipment, real property and 100% of
their capital stock.

The collateral does not include the capital stock and other
equity of foreign subsidiaries; the intercompany note owing from
Plashof Holding BV; and proceeds from avoidance actions.

Bank of America's lien on the collateral, however, is subject to
and junior in priority to the so-called "permitted liens."  These
liens include the rights of the lessors on properties that are
not owned by the Debtors or their estate as well as the claims
and interests of their tooling manufacturers, end users and
molders protected by the Michigan law or other laws.

BofA's lien is also subject to and junior to the so-called
"carve-out" or fees payable to the U.S. Trustee, the Clerk of the
Bankruptcy Court, and the Debtors' professionals.

In case any of the collateral is sold, leased or disposed of,
Bank of America has the "right to credit bid the obligations or
any part thereof, subject to the rights of the Official Committee
of Unsecured Creditors to object to the credit bid."

The Bankruptcy Court overruled all objections to the proposed
financing that have not yet been resolved.

Objections were filed by the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors and certain prepetition creditors who assert secured or
lessor claims with seniority over the claims of the "Existing
Lender" with respect to certain property interests of the
Debtors.  Prior to the conclusion of the hearing, the Creditors
Committee reached an agreement with Bank of America and the OEM
Customers -- General Motors Corporation and Chrysler LLC -- with
respect to certain modifications to the terms of the Loan
Documents.  The terms agreed by the parties include:

   -- The OEM Customers will not exercise any rights of set-off
      or recoupment against accounts payable to Cadence during
      the term of the GM and Chrysler Accommodation Agreements.

   -- Regardless of an event of default, GM and Chrysler will  
      jointly make Term B Loans to the Debtors for payment of
      administrative expenses in the budget.

   -- The OEM Customers' agree to limited marshalling; and

   -- Inventory will be deemed "delivered" to each OEM Customer
      when it is given full and complete access to the debtors'
      facility to remove the Inventory.

CADENCE INNOVATIONS: Can Access BofA's Cash Collateral
------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware issued a
final ruling permitting Cadence Innovation, LLC, and New Venture
Real Estate Holdings, LLC, to use cash collateral securing
repayment of secured loan to Bank of America.

The Debtors intend to use the cash collateral to pay their debts,
loans and other obligations under the DIP Credit Agreement with
Bank of America.  The cash collateral will also be used to pay
for services or materials provided to the Debtors, and for the
expenses incurred after their bankruptcy filing.

The Debtors, however, are not allowed to use the cash collateral
generated after their bankruptcy filing from the sale or
disposition of assets outside the ordinary course of their
business, or those consisting of insurance proceeds.

In return for allowing the Debtors to use the cash collateral,
Bank of America and the lenders under the Amended and Restated
Loan and Security Agreement dated Oct. 31, 2005, are granted:

   (i) replacement liens on the collateral, subject and junior
       to the postpetition liens, permitted liens and the
       carve-out; and

  (ii) allowed administrative priority claims with priority
       over all administrative expenses.

operations.

WSJ relates that Gov. Schwarzenegger, in a letter to U.S. Treasury
Secretary Henry Paulson on Thursday, said that a $750 million bond
sale in Massachusetts this week and the recent actions by the
federal government, including the $700 billion bailout program,
"appear to be improving liquidity" of the state government.

Citing California Treasurer Bill Lockyer's spokesperson Tom
Dresslar, WSJ states that the Massachusetts bond sale is a sign
that states will be able to get near-term loans without federal
aid.  

Michael B. Marois of Bloomberg News reports that Governor
Schwarzenegger said there are signs municipal bond investors might
be willing to lend the state the $4 billion of short-term notes it
needs to pay monthly bills.

According to Mr. Marois, Mr. Lockyer is planning to sell this week  
$4 billion of revenue anticipation notes, a short-term financing
used by states and local governments to pay bills until tax
revenue arrives.  Bloomberg says that Mr. Lockyer had planned to
sell $7 billion, but settled on a smaller offering due to market
strains.  Mr. Lockyer wants to sell as much of the debt to
individual investors as possible than rely on institutions like
money-market funds, banks, and insurance companies, the report
states.

Mr. Schwarzenegger, according to Bloomberg, has agreed to appear
in radio advertising in Los Angeles and San Francisco pitching the
notes.

Bloomberg reports that California has $51 billion in general-
obligation debt outstanding.  California, according to the report,
is rated A+ by Fitch Ratings and Standard & Poor's, the fifth-
highest rankings, and a comparable A1 by Moody's Investors
Service.

Centennial Communications Corp. continues to carry Moody's
Investor Services' 'Caa1' senior unsecured debt rating, which was
placed in September 2006.


CENTERPOINT ENERGY: Moody's Affirms 'Ba1' Senior Unsecured Rating
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service affirmed stable outlooks for CenterPoint
Energy, Inc. (CNP, Ba1 senior unsecured) and its subsidiaries
CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC (CEHE, Baa3 senior
unsecured) and CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp. (Baa3 senior
unsecured).

The statement follows CNP's 8-K filing raising its estimate for
Hurricane Ike storm restoration costs from $350 to $500 million a
few weeks ago to $650 to $750 million.  The increase in the latest
cost estimate is negative for the credit of CEHE and CNP overall
and slows CEHE's previous positive rating momentum, but it is not
sufficient to warrant a rating action at this time.

Moody's said that the storm restoration process will likely
continue into 2009.  The company expects to recover some of the
storm-related costs from property insurance proceeds (about
$20 million net deductible at CNP's current estimates), but mostly
from a securitization bond issue, or through traditional rate
mechanisms, all which will take time to negotiate.  The ultimate
amount of storm restoration costs as well as the amount and the
timing of recovering them through regulatory or legislative means
are uncertain.

"CNP and CEHE still appear to have sufficient liquidity to meet
currently identified costs in the near term, although their
liquidity cushion has been diminished," said Mihoko Manabe,
Moody's vice president.  "The stable outlook is also based on CEHE
receiving sufficient storm-related cost recovery that will support
its credit profile."

CNP and CEHE had $1.1 billion of available credit availability as
of September 30, 2008.  The revolvers do not expire until 2012,
and the CenterPoint companies have adequate headroom under their
covenants.  Moody's liquidity risk assessment customarily does not
assume access to the financial markets and takes into account
contingencies, such as exposure to the currently troubled Reliant
Energy Inc. (Ba3 corporate family rating, under review for
possible downgrade), CEHE's largest customer. This exposure would
include receivables from Reliant (accounted for about half of
CenterPoint's $190 million of billed receivables from REPS at June
30, 2008, in addition to receivables for services rendered that
have yet to be billed).

Moody's notes that these storm costs will likely be funded by
incremental debt that was not previously anticipated and does not
help CNP's already weak financial profile (book
debt/capitalization, after Moody's standard adjustments, was 71%
at June 30, 2008).  Moody's will continue to closely monitor the
CenterPoint companies' liquidity profile that has been set back by
Ike's large storm costs at a time of extraordinarily adverse
financial market conditions.

CenterPoint Energy, Inc., is an electric and gas distribution
company headquartered in Houston, Texas.


CENTRO NP: Inks Deal to Extend $350MM Credit Facility to Dec. 15
----------------------------------------------------------------
Centro NP LLC disclosed in a Securities and Exchange Commission
filing that on Sept. 26, 2008, it entered into a letter agreement
modifying and waiving provisions of its Revolving Credit Facility
and the Letter Agreement, dated as of Feb. 14, 2008, relating to
its $350 million unsecured revolving credit facility with Bank of
America N.A., as administrative agent.

The Letter Agreement Amendment provides for, among other things,
an extension of the maturity of indebtedness under the Revolving
Credit Facility from Sept. 30, 2008, to Dec. 15, 2008.

A copy of the Letter Agreement Amendment is available free of
charge at http://researcharchives.com/t/s?33a2

                           Balance Sheet

At June 30, 2008, the company's consolidated balance sheet showed
$4.51 billion in total assets, $2.20 billion in total liabilities,
$42.0 million in minority interest in consolidated partnership and
joint ventures, and $2.27 billion in total member's capital.

Centro NP LLC reported a net loss of $299.5 million for the second
quarter ended June 30, 2008, a net loss of $34.7 million for the
period from April 1, 2007, through April 4,2007, and net income of
$3.7 million for the period April 5, 2007, through June 30, 2007.

statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, are available for
free at http://researcharchives.com/t/s?316a

                        Going Concern Doubt

There is substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue
as a going concern given that the company's liquidity is subject
to, among other things, its ability to negotiate extensions of
credit facilities.  The company's inability to refinance the
credit facilities would have a material adverse effect on the
company's liquidity and financial condition.  In addition,
uncertainty also exists due to the refinancing issues currently
experienced by the company's ultimate parent investors, Centro
Properties Group and Centro Retail Group.  If the outcomes of
these refinancing negotiations are not favorable to Centro
Properties Group and Centro Retail Group, it is uncertain as to
the impact that this will have on the company.

                        About Centro NP LLC

Headquartered in New York, Centro NP LLC (formerly Super
IntermediateCo LLC) was formed in February 2007 to succeed the
operations of New Plan Excel Realty Trust Inc.  The principal
business of the company is the ownership and management of
community and neighborhood shopping centers throughout the United
States.  A substantial portion of its revenue is derived from
tenants under existing leases at its properties.  Prior to the
consummation of the merger, New Plan Excel Realty Trust was
operated as a self-administered, self-managed real estate
investment trust.

                           *     *     *

Moody's Investors Service downgraded the senior unsecured debt
ratings of Centro NP LLC (formerly New Plan Excel Realty Trust,
Inc.) to Caa1, from B3.  Although the company announced that its
lenders extended its September 30, 2008 refinancing deadline for
US debt to be coterminous with the Australian deadline of Dec. 15,
the inability to complete portfolio sales and the material decline
in capital market liquidity continues to pressure the rating.  The
ratings are under review for possible downgrade.


CHRYSLER LLC: Denies Bankruptcy Speculation
-------------------------------------------
Jeff Green and Greg Bensinger at Bloomberg News report that
Chrysler LLC's spokesperson Shawn Morgan said in an interview that
the company won't declare bankruptcy.

According to Bloomberg, Standard & Poor's lead automotive credit
analyst Robert Schulz said that Chrysler LLC, along with Ford
Motor Co. and General Motors Corp., may be forced into bankruptcy
as the global credit freeze damps U.S.  Bloomberg states that Mr.
Schulz said that "macro factors could overwhelm them at some
point" even as GM, Ford, and Chrysler vow to stick with their
turnaround plans.

                       About Chrysler LLC

Headquartered in Auburn Hills, Michigan, Chrysler LLC --
http://www.chrysler.com/-- a unit of Cerberus Capital
Management LP, produces Chrysler, Jeep(R), Dodge and Mopar(R)
brand vehicles and products.  The company has dealers worldwide,
including Canada, Mexico, U.S., Germany, France, U.K., Argentina,
Brazil, Venezuela, China, Japan and Australia.

                          *     *     *

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 11, 2008,
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on Chrysler
LLC, including the corporate credit rating, to 'CCC+' from 'B-'.

On July 31, 2008, TCR said that Fitch Ratings downgraded the
Issuer Default Rating of Chrysler LLC to 'CCC' from 'B-'.  The
Rating Outlook is Negative.  The downgrade reflects Chrysler's
restricted access to economic retail financing for its vehicles,
which is expected to result in a further step-down in retail
volumes.  Lack of competitive financing is also expected to result
in more costly subvention payments and other forms of sales
incentives.  Fitch is also concerned with the state of the
securitization market and the ability of the automakers to access
this market on an economic basis over the near term, given the
steep drop in residual values, higher default rates, higher loss
severity being experienced and jittery capital market.

CREDIT SUISSE: S&P Junks 3 Classes of Series 2002-CKP1 Certs.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on three
classes of commercial mortgage pass-through certificates from
Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Securities Corp.'s series
2002-CKP1.  At the same time, S&P affirmed its ratings on 15 other
classes from this series.

The downgrades reflect anticipated credit support erosion upon the
eventual resolution of three ($21.4 million, 3%) of the five
assets with the special servicer.  The downgrades also reflect
credit concerns regarding eight of the 17 loans in the pool that
have reported debt service coverage of less than 1.0x.

The affirmed ratings reflect credit enhancement levels that
provide adequate support through various stress scenarios.

The five assets ($27.6 million, 3%) with the special servicer LNR
Partners Inc. are:

     -- The Fox Chase Apartments asset has a total exposure of
        $10.8 million (1%) and is secured by a 260-unit
        multifamily property in Grand Prairie, Texas.  The asset
        was transferred to LNR on Oct. 18, 2007, and is classified
        as real estate owned.  There is significant deferred
        maintenance associated with the property.  Occupancy was
        44% as of September 2008. A $1.4 million appraisal
        reduction amount is in effect for this asset.  Standard &
        Poor's expects the resolution of the asset will result in
        a moderate to significant loss.

     -- The Bruton Oaks Apartments asset has a total exposure of
        $9.1 million (1%) and is secured by a 304-unit multifamily
        property in Dallas, Texas.  The asset was transferred to
        LNR on June 6, 2007, and is classified as REO.  As of
        September 2008, occupancy was 71%.  In addition, there is
        significant deferred maintenance associated with the
        property.  A $4.1 million ARA is in effect for this asset.
        Standard & Poor's expects the resolution of the asset will
        result in a moderate to significant loss.

     -- The Kimball Square Apartments loan has a total exposure of
        $4.9 million (0.6%) and is secured by a 232-unit
        multifamily property in Dallas, Texas.  The asset was
        transferred to LNR on Oct. 17, 2007, due to payment
        default.  The loan is 90-plus days delinquent.  In
        addition, there is significant deferred maintenance
        associated with the property. A $1.4 million ARA is in
        effect for this asset.  Standard & Poor's expects the
        resolution of the loan will result in a moderate loss.

     -- The Village Square Apartments loan has a total exposure of
        $3.9 million (0.5%) and is secured by a 190-unit
        multifamily property in Detroit, Michigan.  The asset was
        transferred to LNR on July 11, 2008, due to payment
        default.  The loan is now current in its principal and
        interest payments.  An appraisal has been ordered.  The
        year-end 2007 DSC was 1.20x.  Standard & Poor's expects
        the resolution of the asset will result in a minimal loss.

     -- The 1800 Building loan has a total exposure of
        $2.4 million (0.3%) and is secured by a 19,544-sq.-ft.
        office property in Torrance, California.  The asset was
        transferred to LNR on Nov. 20, 2007, due to payment
        default.  The loan is 60-plus days delinquent.  A $0.6
        million ARA is in effect for this asset.  Standard &
        Poor's expects the resolution of the asset will result in
        a minimal loss.

Excluding two assets that are with the special servicer, there are
17 loans in the pool ($62.5 million, 7%) that have reported DSCs
of less than 1.0x.  The loans are secured by a variety of property
types and have an average balance of $3.7 million.  These loans
have seen an average decline in DSC of 35% since issuance.  The
properties securing the eight loans that are credit concerns have
experienced a combination of declining occupancy and higher
operating expenses.  The remaining loans are not currently credit
concerns because:

     -- They secure properties that are in various stages of
        renovation or lease-up.  In these cases, S&P expects net
        cash flow to increase in the future;

     -- They have been structured with reserves that are still
        outstanding; and/or

     -- They have relatively low exposure per square foot or unit.

As of the Sept. 17, 2008, remittance report, the collateral pool
consisted of 141 loans with an aggregate trust balance of
$853.6 million, compared with 156 loans totaling $992.9 million at
issuance.  The master servicer, Midland Loan Services Inc.,
reported financial information for 99.6% of the pool.  Ninety-
three percent of the servicer-provided information was full-year
2007 data.  Standard & Poor's calculated a weighted average DSC of
1.42x for the pool, up from 1.37x at issuance.  There are two REO
assets and three delinquent loans in the pool.  Four of these are
with LNR.  The remaining asset is classified as 30-plus days
delinquent.  The trust has experienced 10 losses totaling $6.2
million to date.

The top 10 loans have an aggregate outstanding balance of
$329.2 million (39%) and a weighted average DSC of 1.52x, up from
1.39x at issuance.  Standard & Poor's reviewed the property
inspections provided by the master servicer for 39 of the
properties underlying the top 10 exposures.  All of the assets
were characterized as either "good" or "excellent."

Midland reported a watchlist of 25 loans ($76.2 million, 9%).  The
Oak Ridge Office Portfolio loan ($24.9 million, 3% of pool) is the
largest loan on the watchlist and the sixth-largest exposure in
the pool.  The loan is secured by a portfolio of six office
properties comprising 413,965-sq.-ft. of rentable space in Oak
Ridge, Tennessee.  The loan appears on the watchlist due to low
DSC, which was 0.99x as of year-end 2007 on a consolidated basis.  
The low DSC is attributable to a combination of decreased
occupancies and lower rent re-signings that have affected three of
the six collateral properties.

Standard & Poor's identified 16 collateral properties
($30.3 million, 4%) in areas affected by Hurricane Ike.  None of
the properties secure loans that appear on the watchlist due to
the hurricane.  One property ($1.0 million, 0.12%) is known to
have not sustained damage.  One property ($2.6 million, 0.31%)
experienced minor damage that has already been repaired.  Two
properties ($6.0 million, 0.70%) are known to have sustained major
damage as a result of the storm.  In both cases, there is ample
property and business interruption insurance available.  S&P is
still awaiting information for the remaining 12 properties
($20.7 million, 2%), and it will continue to monitor the
situation.

Standard & Poor's stressed the loans on the watchlist and the
other loans with credit issues as part of its analysis.  The
resultant credit enhancement levels support the lowered and
affirmed ratings.

CROSSWINDS AT ROCKY: Selling Assets to Cabarrus County for $1.8MM
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Crosswinds at Rocky River LLC said that it plans to sell a
24.1-acre property for $1.8 million to Cabarrus County, which land
will be used for a school, Bill Rochelle of Bloomberg News
reports.  The company declared that there will be no public
auction because the sale may end a fight over condemnation, Mr.
Rochelle relates.

Headquartered in Novi, Michigan, Crosswinds at Rocky River, LLC,
files for Chapter 11 protection on June 30, 2008 (Bankr. W.D N.C.
Case No. 08-31357).  Travis W. Moon, Esq., at Hamilton Moon
Stephens Steele Martin, represents the Debtor.  When the Debtor
filed for protection from its creditors, it listed assets and
debts between $10 million and $50 million.


CWABS: Moody's Downgrades Ratings on 717 Tranches From 71 RMBS
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service has downgraded the ratings of 717
tranches from 71 subprime RMBS transactions issued by CWABS.  
Additionally, three ratings were confirmed after previously being
on review for possible further downgrade.  The collateral backing
these transactions consists primarily of first-lien, fixed and
adjustable-rate, subprime residential mortgage loans.

These actions follow and are as a result of Moody's September 18,
2008 announcement that it had updated its loss projections on
first-lien subprime RMBS.

Moody's Investors Service also takes action on certain insured
notes.  The ratings on securities that are guaranteed or "wrapped"
by a financial guarantor is the higher of a) the rating of the
guarantor or b) the published underlying rating.

The underlying ratings on these insured notes reflect the
intrinsic credit quality of the notes in the absence of the
guarantee.  The current ratings on the below notes are consistent
with Moody's practice of rating insured securities at the higher
of the guarantor's insurance financial strength rating and any
underlying rating that is public

Complete rating actions are:

DB ISLAMORADA: To Auction Assets; Concord Wilshire Offers $8MM
--------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida
granted DB Islamorada, LLC, permission to auction its assets.  The
Court approved the sale of the Debtor's assets to Concord
Wilshire Development, Inc., or its designee, or to the highest and
best bidder at an auction, free and clear of liens, claims, and
encumbrances.  Concord Wilshire has offered $8,000,000 for
substantially all of the Debtor's assets.  The Court approved the
procedures to govern the sale and the auction, including the terms
for submission of competing offers and auction procedures.

The Debtor filed for Chapter 11 protection on Nov. 29, 2007.  
After filing for Chapter 11 protection, the Debtor determined that
a reorganization would not be feasible and thus the Debtor
determined a liquidation or sale of its assets would be
necessary.

On July 30, 2007, the Court issued an order extending the Debtors'
exclusive periods to file a plan and solicit plan votes, giving
the Debtor time to negotiate and document a purchase and sale
contract for the Debtor's real and personal property.
                
The Debtor wants to sell its business and assets to Concord
Wilshire under the terms and conditions set forth in an Agreement
of Purchase and Sale, which has already been executed by the
parties.

                         Purchase Agreement

In August 2008, Concord Wilshire paid $500,000 to be held in trust
by Chicago Title Insurance Company, under the terms of the
Purchase Agreement.  The Deposit will be refunded if:

      (i) the Court does not approve the Purchase Agreement;

     (ii) the Court conducts an auction of the property and the
          property is sold to a party other than Concord
          Wilshire;

    (iii) the Court conducts an auction and Concord Wilshire is
          not selected as the successful bidder;

     (iv) the Debtor breaches the Purchase Agreement;

      (v) the conditions to Concord Wilshire's obligation to
          close are not satisfied or waived; or
                
     (vi) as otherwise set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Under the Purchase Agreement, the sale will be free and clear of
liens, claims, and encumbrances.

If the Court approves (i) a sale of the Property pursuant to any
transaction involving the sale of the Property to a purchaser or
purchasers other than Concord Wilshire and the Competing
Transaction actually closes, or (ii) a plan of reorganization that
contemplates a Competing Transaction, that actually closes,
Concord Wilshire will be paid by the Debtor about $250,000 as a
break-up fee, provided Concord Wilshire has not breached the
Purchase Agreement and is otherwise ready and able to close.

The Purchase Agreement stipulates that the initial overbid must be
at least $300,000 higher than the Concord Wilshire's bid.  
Competing bidders must provide a deposit equal to the greater of
5% of the competing bid, and $500,000.  Concord Wilshire will get
a credit in bidding equal to the Break-Up Fee.

In the event that the closing fails to occur within the time
described in the Purchase Agreement for any reason:

      (i) the Debtor will have the right to grant an extension
          to the purchaser up 30 days, but not later than
          Dec. 15, 2008, to effect the closing, and

     (ii) the purchaser shall have the right, upon:

          (a) providing written notice to the Debtor and
          (b) depositing an additional $100,000 with Escrow
              Agent, which shall be added to and treated as a
              part of the deposit, no later than 5:00 p.m. on
              the date that closing is scheduled to occur as
              set forth in the Purchase Agreement, to extend
              the Closing Date for a period of not more than
              30 days, but not later than Dec. 15, 2008.

                       Auction Procedures
                  
To maximize the value received for the property, the property will
be offered at an auction to be conducted at the Sale Hearing, and
the competing bids will be submitted by bidders for the property.  
If any other interested party wants to submit a bid to purchase
the property, the party must do so pursuant to the terms and
conditions described in the Bidding Procedures.

                   Use of Proceeds From the Sale

The Debtors asked the Court to be allowed to use the proceeds from
the sale of the property to pay any super-priority administrative
expense claims resulting from post-petition loans authorized by
the Court pursuant to Section 364(c) of the Bankruptcy Code, the
Administrative Carve Out as defined in Post Petition Financing
Order of July 29, 2008, and
other creditors authorized by the Court at the sale hearing set
for Nov. 7, 2008, at 1:00 p.m., at 51 SW First Avenue, Room 1410,
Miami.  The remaining Sale Proceeds will be held in an interest
bearing account by counsel for Debtor pending further Court order.


DECODE GENETICS: Has Until October 30 to Comply with NASDAQ Rule
----------------------------------------------------------------
deCODE genetics, Inc. disclosed in a Securities and Exchange
Commission filing that on Sept. 30, 2008, it received a notice
from the Nasdaq Stock Market stating that for 10 consecutive
trading days the market value of deCODE's common stock had been
below $50 million, the minimum level required for continued
listing on The Nasdaq Global Market as set forth in Nasdaq
Marketplace Rule.

The notice further stated that deCODE also does not comply with an
alternative test set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule, which
requires total assets and total revenue of $50 million each for
the most recently completed fiscal year or two of the last three
most recently completed fiscal years.

In accordance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule, deCODE will be
provided a period of 30 calendar days, or until Oct. 30, 2008, to
regain compliance.  

If at any time before Oct. 30, 2008, the market value of deCODE's
common stock is $50 million or more for a minimum of 10
consecutive business days, the Nasdaq staff will determine if
deCODE complies with Marketplace Rule.

If deCODE has not regained compliance by Oct. 30, 2008, the Nasdaq
staff will issue a letter notifying deCODE that its common stock
will be delisted from The Nasdaq Global Market.  At that time,
deCODE may appeal the determination to a Nasdaq Listing
Qualifications Panel.  If deCODE cannot meet the requirements for
continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market, it will consider
whether to apply to transfer its common stock to The Nasdaq
Capital Market.

DELPHI CORP: Might Regain Fraud Claim, Keeps Rights to Proceeds
---------------------------------------------------------------
Delphi Corp., in May 2008, sued Appaloosa Management, L.P., and
other parties in light of their refusal to comply with their prior
agreement to provide $2,550,000,000 in equity exit financing to
Delphi.

On June 10, after denying Delphi's request for an expedited
trial, the Court approved an agreed-upon case management plan,
which included dates for non-binding mediation in August 2008 and
a deadline of March 31, 2009 for the case to be trial-ready.

Appaloosa's termination of their Equity Purchase and Commitment
Agreement stalled the consummation of Delphi's Plan of
Reorganization, which was confirmed by the Court January 25,
2008, and kept Delphi in Chapter 11.

Delphi, on October 3, filed modifications to their Plan of
Reorganization, which would allow Delphi to exit Chapter 11
regardless of the outcome of their lawsuit for specific
performance by the Plan Investors.  The Modified Plan does not
require equity exit financing from the Plan Investors, and only
contemplates a $3.75 billion of funded emergence capital through
a combination of term bank debt and rights to purchase equity in
Reorganized Delphi.

In their Modified Plan, Delphi said that on August 5 and 6, 2008,
the parties to the lawsuit participated in confidential, non-
binding mediation with Eric D. Green, a mediator with Resolutions
LLC who had been jointly selected by the parties pursuant to the
case management order governing the litigation.
  
The Debtors added that they intend to retain this asset of the
estate and the proceeds of any settlement or judgment will be
retained by the Debtors.

The defendants to Delphi's $2.55-billion lawsuit are:

      - Appaloosa Management L.P.;
      - A-D Acquisition Holdings, LLC;    
      - Harbinger Del-Auto Investment Company, Ltd.;
      - Pardus DPH Holding LLC;
      - Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated;
      - Goldman Sachs & Co.;
      - Harbinger Capital Partners Master Fund I, Ltd.;
      - Pardus Special Opportunities Master Fund L.P.; and
      - UBS Securities LLC.

Delphi still insists that Appaloosa wrongfully terminated the
Investment Agreement and disputes the allegations that it  
breached the EPCA or failed to satisfy any condition to the
Investors' obligations thereunder as asserted by Appaloosa in its
April 4 letter.  It notes that on July 28:

   -- as to Appaloosa and ADAH, while the Court has dismissed one
      part of Delphi's claim for fraud, the Court sustained the
      claim for fraud, as well as the claims for breach of
      contract (including for specific performance, for damages
      in excess of the cap, and veil piercing) and for equitable
      subordination.

   -- As to Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs and UBS, the motions
      were granted to the extent of dismissing (i) that part of
      the breach of contract claim under the EPCA to the extent
      it seeks monetary damages in excess of the cap on liability
      in section 11(b) of the EPCA applicable to each such
      defendant, and (ii) the claim for equitable subordination
      and disallowance.  The Court thus sustained the breach-of-
      contract claim under the Investment Agreement, and left
      open the possibility that these defendants could be subject
      to a decree of specific performance.

   -- As to Harbinger and Pardus (and their affiliates, Harbinger
      Del-Auto and Pardus DPH), the Court dismissed that part of
      (i) the claim for breach of contract under the EPCA  to the
      extent it seeks monetary damages from Harbinger Del-Auto or
      Pardus DPH in excess of the cap on aggregate liability in
      section 11(b)  applicable to those defendants, (ii) the
      claim for breach of contract under the Commitment Letter       
      Agreements to the extent it seeks relief from Harbinger or
      Pardus other than monetary damages up to the amount of the
      cap on aggregate liability applicable to each such
      defendant as set forth in its respective Commitment Letter
      Agreement, and (iii) the claim for equitable subordination
      and disallowance.  Because Harbinger Del-Auto and Pardus
      DPH are shell companies, and because the Court ruled that
      Harbinger and Pardus are subject to monetary damages only
      under the Commitment Letters (and only up to the caps), the
      Court effectively foreclosed the possibility of specific
      performance as to these defendants in the full amounts of
      their original commitments.

The Plan Investors committed to these amounts under the EPCA:

                                         Commitment Amount
                                         -----------------
     A-D Acquisition Holdings               $1,076,394,180
     Harbinger Del-Auto                        397,225,891
     Pardus DPH Holding                        342,655,959
     Merrill Lynch                             166,866,749
     Goldman Sachs                             166,866,749
     UBS                                       166,866,749

The EPCA had provided that Delphi would be required to pay the
Plan Investors $83 million plus certain transaction expenses if
(a) the EPCA was terminated as a result of the company's agreeing
to pursue an alternative investment transaction with a third
party or (b) either the company's Board of Directors withdrew its
recommendation of the transaction or the Company willfully
breached the EPCA, and within the next 24 months thereafter, the
company then agreed to an alternative investment transaction.  

According to Reuters, Judge Drain said at a hearing on Oct. 8
that that he will reconsider Delphi's fraud claim against
Appaloosa that  he had earlier dismissed.  "It seems to me that I
was unclear in what aspects of the allegations needed to be dealt
with," Judge Drain said.  "I may well have been wrong."

Forbes reports that yesterday, lawyers for Appaloosa sought the
right to improve its position in the lawsuit, but in doing so the
hedge fund may have opened the door to wider charges.  "I have
real doubts whether I should have dismissed the fraud claims,
other than the claim of misrepresentation," Judge Drain said.

DELPHI CORP: Asks Court to Approve Revisions to Chapter 11 Plan
---------------------------------------------------------------
Delphi Corporation and its debtor-subsidiaries ask the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to approve
modifications to their Court-confirmed Joint Chapter 11 Plan of
Reorganization.

Delphi believes that the modifications to their Plan will allow
them to emerge from Chapter 11 and provide meaningful stakeholder
recoveries, despite the "very challenging macroeconomic climate"
and Appaloosa Management, L.P., and other parties' termination of
their agreement to provide $2,550,000,000 in exit equity
financing.

John Wm. Butler, Jr, Esq., at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher &

provides for these terms:

                       Significant Progress
                    in 2006 Transformation Plan

Mr. Butler recounts that on March 31, 2006, Delphi announced its
five-point Transformation Plan.  According to him, Delphi has
made significant progress in achieving the objectives of its
Transformation Plan and is now poised to emerge from chapter 11:

  1. Labor: Modify the Company's labor agreements to create a
     competitive arena in which to conduct business

       Delphi has been able to significantly lower its hourly
       labor costs by entering into modified collective
       bargaining agreements with each of its Unions in 2007.  
       These agreements have already become effective both prior
       to and as a result of the consummation of amended Global
       Services Agreement and the Master Restructuring Agreement,
       between Delphi and General Motors Corp., and
       Implementation Agreements with the six North American
       unions have become effective.

  2. GM: Conclude negotiations with GM to finalize GM's financial
     support for certain of the Debtors' legacy and labor costs
     and ascertain GM's business commitment to the company

       Delphi has entered into comprehensive settlement and
       restructuring agreements with GM and the provisions of
       these agreements became effective on September 29, 2008.  
       Under the Amended GSA and Amended MRA, GM agreed to
       contribute additional value to the Debtors with fewer
       termination rights and conditionality provisions.  The net
       contributions provided to the Debtors from GM under the
       Amended GSA and Amended MRA increased from $6.0 billion
       under the Settlement Agreement and Restructuring Agreement
       to approximately $10.6 billion under the Amended GSA and
       Amended MRA.

  3. Product Portfolio and Manufacturing Footprint: Streamline
     the company's product portfolio to capitalize on world-
     class technology and market strengths and make the necessary
     manufacturing alignment with its new focus

       Delphi has also been successful in streamlining its
       product portfolio, aligning its manufacturing capabilities
       to focus on its market strengths, and developing "Safe,
       Green, & Connected" products.

       The Debtors have sold or wound down non-core product lines
       and manufacturing sites identified in March 2006 and are
       continuing their efforts to sell certain other non-core
       product lines.  For example, during the first six months
       of 2008 alone, Delphi obtained Court approval of bidding
       procedures and sales agreements for the steering and
       halfshaft product line and closed on the sales of the
       interiors and closures product line, the North American
       brake components machining and assembly assets, and the
       global bearings business.  Additionally, under an order
       providing Delphi with authority to sell certain assets
       that do not exceed $10 million without further Court
       approval, Delphi entered into an agreement to sell its
       power products business.

  4. Cost Structure: Transform the company's salaried workforce
     and reduce general and administrative expenses to ensure
     that the Company's organizational and cost structure is
     competitive and aligned with its product portfolio and
     manufacturing footprint

       Delphi has implemented and is continuing to implement
       restructuring initiatives in furtherance of the
       transformation of its salaried workforce to reduce
       selling, general and administrative expenses to support
       its realigned portfolio.  These initiatives include
       financial services, information technology and certain
       sales administration outsourcing activities, reduction of
       its global salaried workforce by taking advantage of
       attrition and using salaried separation plans, and
       realignment of certain salaried benefit programs to bring
       them in line with more competitive industry levels.  
       Although there is an investment required to implement        
       these initiatives, Delphi expects to realize substantial
       savings in 2009 and beyond.

  5. Pension: Devise a workable solution to the Company's
     pension funding situation.

       Delphi has substantially achieved its pension funding
       strategy objectives for hourly employees through the
       transaction under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
       Section 414(l), and Section 208 of the Employee Retirement
       Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, 29 U.S.C.
       Sections 1001-1461.  With respect to its salaried
       employees, Delphi froze the salaried pension plan and
       implemented replacement plans that will be more cost-
       effective for the remainder of their chapter 11 cases and
       after emergence from chapter 11.

Mr. Butler relates that the differences between the business
operation of Delphi from the time of its chapter 11 filing in
2005, its present state of transformation in mid-2008, and its
expected 2009 state on a post-emergence basis, are striking:

                     Reaffirmed Business Plan

When the closing on the Confirmed Plan was suspended on April 4,
2008, as part of Delphi's consideration of potential
modifications to its Confirmed Plan to enable it to emerge from
chapter 11 as soon as practicable, Delphi undertook a
reaffirmation process with respect to the business plan to the
December 2007 Disclosure Statement.  That reaffirmation process
involved review and reaffirmation of the budget business plan.

According to Mr. Butler, the Debtors were able to substantially
accomplish two of their transformation goals of finalizing GM's
support for Delphi's business and finding a workable solution to
pension related issues. The implementation of the Amended MRA,
along with the completion of the first step of the 414(l)
Transfer, has allowed Delphi to move forward with a reaffirmed
business plan for 2008-2011.  The reaffirmed POR business plan
for 2008-2011 is attached to the Modified Disclosure Statement as
Appendix C and is hereinafter referred to as the "RPOR."

Among other changes, the RPOR includes revised actual and
expected volumes for the North American automotive market,
significant increases in commodities costs that are used as raw
materials in certain of Delphi's products, and changes in the
underfunded status of its pension plans as a result of negative
plan asset returns.  The RPOR also reflects actual financial
results for the first half of 2008, updated foreign exchange
rates over the RPOR period, and other specific operational
adjustments with respect to particular customer program volumes
and timing, including the modifications embodied in the Amended
GSA and Amended MRA.

The RPOR projects 2008 EBITDARP at approximately $0.58 billion
improving to $1.74 billion in 2009.  The main contributors of
this improvement are: (a) the reduction of traditional hourly
U.S. OPEB expense (substantially all of which has been assumed by
GM), (b) GM labor subsidy and keep site facilitation support, (c)
structural cost improvements in the areas of manufacturing,
engineering and SG&A, and (d) increased profit related to new
business wins outside of GM North America.  Material cost
improvements are also anticipated in the RPOR, partially offset
by anticipated year-over-year customer price reductions.

Cash flow from operating activities is projected to increase from
an inflow of $0.5 billion in 2008 to an inflow of $1.3 billion in
2011.  Significant sources and uses of cash from operations
include:

    -- EBITDARPO improves from $1.0 billion in 2008 to $2.2
       billion in 2011;

    -- Global restructuring cash outflows of approximately
       $0.3 billion, $0.5 billion, $0.2 billion and $0.2 billion
       in 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 respectively;

    -- Projected net working capital monetization proceeds
       associated with the exit from certain Non-Continuing
       Businesses; and,

    -- Net Payments from GM of $1.7 billion in 2008 resulting
       from the implementation of the Amended MRA and Amended GSA
       (including $1.0 billion referred to above in global
       restructuring cash).

Improved operating cash flows are generally the result of the
implementation of the Debtors' Transformation Plan, including
product portfolio rationalization and migration, SG&A cost
reduction initiatives, reduction in personnel costs as a result
of negotiations with labor groups, the freezing of U.S. legacy
defined benefit pension plans, and agreement with GM regarding
future business commitments and financial support for certain
legacy costs, including hourly OPEB.

                 Valuation of Reorganized Delphi

Since the confirmation of the Plan on January 25, 2008, and the
Debtors' delayed emergence from chapter 11 due to the Appaloosa,
et al.'s breach of the Investment Agreement, Rothschild, Inc.,
has undertaken an updated valuation of the Reorganized Debtors as
a going concern.  Based on many factors, including the RPOR
projections and macroeconomic factors affecting the auto industry
as a whole such as the current capital market conditions,
weakened automotive outlook, and declining public trading
multiples, the estimated total enterprise value of Reorganized
Delphi ranges from $6.3 billion to $8.0 billion, with a midpoint
of approximately $7.2 billion.  The Debtors believe that the
recoveries provided by the Modified Plan will be at least as much
as those realized through any other scenario or other feasible
alternative available to the Debtors.

                        $3.75 Billion in
                  Exit Loans and Rights Offering

Delphi anticipates raising approximately $3,750,000,000 of funded
emergence capital through a combination of term bank debt and
rights to purchase equity in Reorganized Delphi.  Delphi expects
to raise at least $2,750,000,000 in funded first and second lien
debt plus an unfunded asset-backed revolving credit facility of
up to $1,200,000,000.  Delphi anticipates raising the remaining
funded emergence capital through a combination of a Discount
Rights Offering with a backstop and a direct subscription for New
Common Stock in Reorganized Delphi.

The Debtors expect the principal sources of emergence capital to
be their existing creditors and stakeholders.  

For GM to achieve the $2,055,000,000 recovery required under the
Amended GSA, and for the holders of unsubordinated General
Unsecured Claims to receive at least 20% in direct recoveries in
the form of New Common Stock, Delphi will be required to achieve
its projected $3.75 billion in funded emergence capital,
including completing the Discount Rights Offering at a discount
not to exceed 40% on a fully diluted basis of Plan Equity Value.  
In the event that these metrics are not achieved, the Debtors
would be required to procure GM's consent pursuant to the Amended
GSA with respect to any modified recovery and the minimum
recovery to holders of unsubordinated General Unsecured Claims
would be proportionally reduced.

The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, (which consists
of a $1.1 billion Tranche A DIP Revolver, a $500 million Tranche
B DIP Term Loan and a $2.754 billion Tranche C DIP Term Loan)
currently matures on December 31, 2008.  The Debtors anticipate
seeking an extension of the December 31, 2008 maturity date.

              Delphi's Exclusive Right to File Plan

Section 14.3 of the Confirmed Plan, to which no party objected
and which was approved by a substantial majority of creditors who
voted on the Confirmed Plan, remains in effect and provides that
only the Debtors may seek modifications of the Confirmed Plan
pursuant to section 1127(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, Mr. Butler
relates.

The Debtors' exclusive right to file a plan, solely as between
the Debtors and the Statutory Committees, has been
extended through and including October 31, 2008 and the right to
solicit a plan, solely as between the Debtors and the Statutory
Committees, through and including December 31, 2008.  The Debtors
are seeking further extensions of the Exclusive Periods to
March 31, 2009 and January 31, 2009, respectively.  Neither of
the Statutory Committees objects to the extension, Mr. Butler
tells the Court.

Because the Debtors have the exclusive right to propose
modifications to the Confirmed Plan or file and solicit a new
plan, the Debtors have taken into consideration all of the
factors, including the additional Transformation Plan-related
accomplishments, the RPOR, and the Reorganized Debtors' projected
capital structure, and are proposing the modifications to the
Confirmed Plan for approval by the Court.

Mr. Butler relates that since the Court approved the Confirmed
Plan, a number of events have occurred as Delphi has continued to
transform its business despite a profound economic downturn in
the automotive industry and turbulent capital markets.  As a
result of these exceptional efforts, the Debtors are now able to
propose a Modified Plan that the Debtors believe should allow
them to successfully emerge from Chapter 11.

                Add'l Provisions in Modified Plan

   A four-member Search Committee will be appointed consisting of
   a current member of the board of directors of Delphi, two

   Claim Reserve an amount of New Preferred Stock, based on Plan
   Equity Value.

Prior to Delphi's filing of its amended plan on Oct. 3, Robert S.
Miller, Delphi's executive chairman, told the Detroit Free Press
that the company needs $3,500,000,000 to $4,000,000,000 to emerge
from bankruptcy protection.  The Free Press notes that the
capital requirement is significantly less than the $6.1 billion
Delphi had sought earlier this year.

According to the Free Press, Miller said during the Automotive
Supplier Finance Summit at the Marriott in Troy the auto
supplier, which has been restructuring in bankruptcy for nearly
three years, is going to its current investors to refinance its
existing bankruptcy loans as well third parties for new money.
The Modified Plan, however, excluded Appaloosa Management, L.P.,
and other investors who previously backed out from their
commitment to invest $2,550,000,000 in equity from Delphi.

DIABLO GRANDE: Closes $20MM Calif. Asset Sale to World Internat'l
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Diablo Grande LP has sold its California country club and housing
development to World International LLC for $20 million, Jane
Bradley, The Scotsman (Scotland) reports.  The sale closed Oct. 7  
after delays brought about by issues over the water supply to the
site.

According to the report, HBOS will recoup around $16 million.  The
company reportedly received $21 million in financial backing from
HBOS, the report says.  

Diablo Grande had wanted to sell the property for $26 million so
it could pay off all of its creditors, the report relates.  Donald
Panoz, the president of Diablo Grande LP's general partner, Diablo
Grande Inc., launched the project over 20 years ago, but began
development only in 2003, the report says.

According to the report, development plans for the property failed
due to "a string of setbacks involving the water supply, while the
plummeting value of the development's property assets plunged the
scheme into financial difficulties".

Diablo Grande LP is the owner of a 33,000-acre housing and golf
resort development in Patterson, California.  Diablo Grande LP's
general partner is Diablo Grande Inc.  The company filed for
chapter 11 protection on March 10, 2008 (Bankr. E.D. Calif. Case
No. 08-90365).  Judge Robert S. Bardwil presides over the case.
Ori Katz, Esq., and Michael H. Ahrens, Esq., at Sheppard Mullin
Richter & Hampton LLP, represent the Debtor in its restructuring
efforts.  When the Debtor filed for bankruptcy, it listed assets
of between $50 million and $100 million, and debts of between $50
million and $100 million.


DRYDEN V-LEVERAGED: S&P Affirms 'BB' Rating on Class E Notes
------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services affirmed its rating on the
class E notes issued by Dryden V-Leveraged Loan CDO 2003, an
arbitrage high-yield collateralized loan obligation, and removed
it from CreditWatch with negative implications, where it was
placed on Aug. 27, 2008.  At the same time, S&P affirmed its
ratings on the class A, B, C, and D notes from this transaction.

Standard & Poor's reviewed the results of current cash flow runs
generated for Dryden V-Leveraged Loan CDO 2003 to determine the
level of future defaults the rated classes can withstand under
various stressed default timing and interest rate scenarios while
still paying all of the interest and principal due on the notes.  
S&P found that the class E notes and the other outstanding classes
had sufficient credit enhancement available at the current rating
levels.

DULUTH ECONOMIC: S&P Cuts 2002 Hospital Revenue Bonds to 'BB-'
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its rating on Duluth
Economic Development Authority, Minnesota's series 2002 hospital
revenue bonds, issued for St. Luke's Hospital of Duluth, one notch
to 'BB-' from 'BB' based on the hospital's weakened operational
liquidity and increased dependence on an annually renewed line of
credit, coupled with a historically volatile financial performance
that has generated a loss in the interim year 2008, reflecting an
increased concern for the credit.  The outlook is negative.

More specifically, the downgrade and negative outlook reflect the
hospital's very light operational liquidity of 23 days' cash on
hand as of year-end 2007 and 14 days as of June 30, 2008,
excluding its line of credit -- St. Luke's relies on an annually
renewed $25 million line of credit with U.S. Bank that has
increased year over year for the past few years to meet its year-
end days' cash on hand covenant of 40 and provide working capital
through the year; history of fluctuating operating income with a
weak, though still positive, $500,000 in operating performance in
fiscal 2007 but a $2.6 million loss through the second quarter of
fiscal 2008; and moderately high leverage ratio of 59% with a
cash-to-long-term-debt ratio of 35% at fiscal year-end 2007.

Factors supporting the 'BB-' rating include the hospital's maximum
annual debt service coverage of more than 2x since 2005 with a
$1 million decline of the maximum annual debt service amount in
2009, though the current interim period is below 2x; and
increasing market share -- The competitor hospital, however, is
still Duluth's dominant health care provider.

"We believe unrestricted cash and the overall balance sheet,
supported by growing lines of credit, remain weak for the rating
level," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Suzie Desai.  
"Further deterioration of the balance sheet or continued weak
operations could result in additional rating pressure."

The rating also reflects competition from Duluth's other health
care provider; below-average wealth levels; and the cyclical
nature of leading area industries such as wood, grain products,
shipping, and mining.

The rating action affects roughly $50.5 million of debt
outstanding.


EATON VANCE: S&P Downgrades Ratings to Low-B & Keeps Neg. Watch
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on Eaton
Vance Variable Leverage Fund Ltd.  The ratings remain on
CreditWatch negative, where they were placed March 12, 2008.

These rating actions follow EVVLF's failure of a market value-
related test and other enforcement triggers.  EVVLF is a market
value corporate loan-based structured investment vehicle.

The lowered ratings reflect S&P's view regarding the uncertainty
of EVVLF's ability to bring the tests and rating triggers back
into compliance during the cure period.  If EVVLF doesn't cure the
test breaches and rating triggers within the cure period provided
under the documents, S&P believes EVVLF would enter enforcement
mode.  If EVVLF enters enforcement mode, it may further lower its
issuer credit rating and S&P's ratings on the MTNs.  The magnitude
of those actions would likely reflect information that S&P expects
to receive with regard to:

     -- Asset sales prices;

     -- Whether Deutsche Bank Trust Co. Americas, the security
        trustee, intends to proceed with sales;

     -- Whether Deutsche Bank Trust Co. Americas intends to
        proceed with an interest coupon payment that falls within
        the enforcement liquidation horizon; and

     -- Whether the sole senior investor elects to direct the
        security trustee to suspend asset sales.

In order for EVVLF to avoid enforcement, S&P believes these events
must occur:

     -- EVVLF cures Moody's Investors Service's market value
        tests;

     -- EVVLF cures Standard & Poor's market value tests;

     -- Moody's Investors Service raises its ratings to levels
        above the enforcement trigger level provided in the
        documents; and

     -- Standard & Poor's raises its ratings to levels above the
        enforcement trigger level provided in the documents (that
        is, to an 'A' rating) due to EVVLF's improved capital
        level.

S&P will resolve the CreditWatch status within a few weeks.  If
S&P learns that EVVLF is not going to pay its next coupon, it will
take rating action on EVVLF.

As of Oct.7, 2008, EVVLF's total portfolio value was
$540.3 million and the notional amount of its total senior
liabilities was $455.9 million.  EVVLF's net portfolio value was
$84.4 million.  This leaves approximately 15%
overcollateralization if calculated on a mark-to-market basis for
the assets against par of the MTN liabilities issued by EVVLF.

At this time, there is no commercial paper or short-maturity MTNs
outstanding.  S&P expects to withdraw its rating on EVVLF's CP and
its short-term ratings on the MTNs when it next updates its view
on EVVLF.

S&P will continue to monitor EVVLF and update its opinion on the
vehicle as it learns more from EVVLF.

EPIX PHARMACEUTICALS: Draws Down Equity Financing Facility
----------------------------------------------------------
EPIX Pharmaceuticals, Inc., disclosed in a Securities and Exchange
Commission filing it has conducted a draw down under its Committed
Equity Financing Facility entered into with Kingsbridge Capital
Limited, dated Aug. 4, 2008.  Pursuant to the Committed Equity
Financing Facility, the Company issued to Kingsbridge 94,627
shares of its common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at an
aggregate purchase price of $113,750.

Following the issuance, on Sept. 26, 2008, an aggregate of
41,675,196 shares of the Company's Common Stock were issued and
outstanding.

Pursuant to the Facility, Kingsbridge committed to provide up to
$50 million of capital for a period of three years through the
purchase of newly-issued shares of the Company's common stock. The
maximum number of shares that can be sold by the Company under the
Facility is approximately 8.3 million shares.

Subject to certain conditions and limitations, from time to time
under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement by and between
Kingsbridge and the Company, dated as of August 4, 2008, relating
to the Facility, the Company may require Kingsbridge to purchase
newly-issued shares of its common stock in tranches of up to 1.5%
of the Company's market capitalization at the time of the
initiation of the draw down period, or, at the Company's option,
the lesser of (a) 3% of the Company's market capitalization at the
time of the initiation of the draw down period, and (b) an
alternative draw down amount as defined in the agreement;
provided, however, that in no event may the maximum draw down
amount exceed $10 million per tranche, subject to certain
conditions.

Each tranche will be issued and priced over an eight-day pricing
period.  Kingsbridge will purchase shares of common stock pursuant
to the Facility at discounts ranging from 6% to 12% depending on
the volume-weighted average price of the Company's common stock
during the eight-day pricing period, provided that the minimum
acceptable purchase price for any shares to be issued to
Kingsbridge during the eight-day period will be equal to the
higher of $1.25 or 90% of the Company's common stock closing price
the day before the commencement of each draw down.

Kingsbridge has agreed that throughout the term of the Facility,
neither it nor any of its affiliates will enter into or execute a
short sale of any of the Company's securities. In addition, the
Company is not prohibited from conducting additional debt or
equity financings, other than financings similar to the Facility.
The Company is not obligated to utilize any of the $50 million
available under the Facility and there are no minimum commitments
or minimum use penalties. The Facility does not contain any
restrictions on the Company's operating activities, automatic
pricing resets or minimum market volume restrictions.

In connection with the Facility, the Company issued a warrant to
Kingsbridge to purchase up to 400,000 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $2.4925 per share which represents a 125%
premium over the average of the closing prices of the Company's
common stock during the five trading days preceding the signing of
the Purchase Agreement.  The Warrant will become exercisable after
the six month anniversary of the date of the Purchase Agreement,
and will remain exercisable, subject to certain exceptions, for a
period of five years thereafter.

The Facility also requires the Company to file a resale
registration statement with respect to the resale of shares issued
pursuant to the Facility and underlying the warrant within 60 days
of entering into the Facility, and to use commercially reasonable
efforts to have such registration statement declared effective by
the Securities and Exchange Commission within 180 days of entering
into the Facility.

EURAMAX INTERNATIONAL: Moody's Junks Corporate Family Rating
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded the long-term ratings of
Euramax International, Inc.  Moody's believes that there is
substantial risk that the company will violate its financial
covenants in the third quarter of 2008 due to growing softness in
the company's end-markets, particularly within its European
operations and building products segment.  Moody's believes these
markets will further soften into 2009.  The company's maximum
leverage ratio steps down in the third quarter of 2008, triggering
the likelihood of a technical default.  As a result, the company
will likely need to re-negotiate financial covenants with its
lenders under difficult credit conditions.

The negative outlook for Euramax reflects weakness in the domestic
recreational vehicle market and certain construction markets and
margin erosion.  A sustained deterioration in operating
performance or credit metrics due to a further decline in product
demand or the inability to successfully amend the company's credit
agreement could result in a further downgrade of the ratings.  The
outlook could be stabilized if the company expands its cash flow
or successfully re-negotiates covenants with its lenders.  Moody's
has noted that aluminum prices have decreased considerably in the
last few months and will benefit the company's cash flows in the
near term.

Ratings Downgraded:

Issuer: Euramax International, Inc.

  -- Corporate Family Rating, downgraded to Caa1 from B2

  -- First Lien Sr. Secured Term Loan, downgraded to B3

FIRST NATIONAL: Fitch Rates $12 Million LIBOR Class D Notes 'BB+'
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings rated First National Master Note Trust Series 2008-2
variable funding notes as.

  -- $48,000,000 LIBOR Class B (2008-2) 'A';
  -- $46,500,000 LIBOR Class C (2008-2) 'BBB';
  -- $12,000,000 LIBOR Class D (2008-2) 'BB+'.

The ratings above are based on the quality of the underlying
receivables pool, the available credit enhancement, and the legal
and cash flow structure.

The notes are issued by First National Master Note Trust, a
Delaware statutory trust, and are secured by a beneficial interest
in a pool of receivables originated under First National Bank of
Omaha's VISA and MasterCard revolving credit card program.  Fitch
deems the underlying receivable pool to be of high quality given
its favorable FICO distribution, account seasoning and overall
performance to date.

Credit enhancement for the Class B notes includes the
subordination of the Class C notes and the Class D notes.  Credit
enhancement for the Class C notes includes the subordination of
the Class D notes and the spread account.  Credit enhancement for
the Class D notes is the subordination of the spread account,
which will be funded with a 0.5% initial deposit on the closing
date.

Fitch also considers other features embedded in the transaction
for the ratings, such as 'fixed allocation of finance charge
collections' and other amortization triggers.

Originally issued in 2004, series 2004-1 variable funding notes
will be renewed annually with its investors.


FORD MOTOR: Analysts Worried Firm May Run Out of Cash
-----------------------------------------------------
Bill Vlasic at The New York Times reports that with vehicle sales
declining, analysts are concerned about the liquidity of General
Motors Corp. and Ford Motor Co. and their ability to finance
operations as their revenues decline and as they continue to eat
into cash reserves.

Dow Jones Newswires relates that as GM and Ford shares continue to
decline, concerns grew that the auto makers won't be able to turn
their operations around before running dangerously low on cash.  
Matthew Dolan and John Stoll at The Wall Street Journal report
that on Thursday, GM closed down 31%, or $2.15, at $4.76, while
Ford dropped 22%, or 58 cents, to $2.08, in New York Stock
Exchange composite trading.  WSJ states that GM ended the day with
a market value of $3.9 billion, while Ford had a $6 billion market
value.

According to Dow Jones, decline in the companies' domestic sales
aren't expected to improve in the near term.  

Dow Jones states that Gimme Credit high-yield analyst Shelly
Lombard wrote in a Thursday research note that Ford appears to
have enough liquidity between cash on hand and credit lines to
fund operations for nine to 12 quarters.  Dow Jones relates that
Ms. Lombard doubted Ford's long-term viability, saying that the
liquidity could evaporate soon as U.S. vehicle sales continue to
drop.

Dow Jones reports that Ford Chief Executive Alan Mulally said at
the Paris Auto Show that the company has the "appropriate amount"
of liquidity and that he will continue cutting production to meet
declining demand.  Investor Kirk Kerkorian, who owns a 6.5% stake
in Ford, has said he is willing to provide additional capital to
fund the company's restructuring, the report states.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 5, 2008,
Fitch Ratings has downgraded the issuer default rating of Ford
Motor Company and Ford Motor Credit Company LLC to 'B-' from 'B'.  
The Rating Outlook remains Negative.  The downgrade reflects: the
further deterioration in Ford's U.S. sales as a result of economic
conditions, an adverse product mix and the most recent jump in gas
prices; portfolio deterioration at Ford Credit and heightened
concern regarding economic access to capital to support financing
requirements; and escalating commodity costs that will remain a
significant offset to cost reduction efforts.


FORD MOTOR: CEO Mulally Says Bankruptcy Not an Option
-----------------------------------------------------
Ford Motor Co.'s President and CEO Alan Mulally said in an
interview that despite new questions from analysts and credit-
rating agencies about Ford's current cash-burn rate and future
liquidity position, a bankruptcy filing is not an option for Ford,
The Wall Street Journal reports.

WSJ quoted Mr. Mulally as saying, "It makes absolutely no sense to
us.  Everything we are doing is to manage our cash and right-size
the company appropriately.  It makes no sense."

Citing Standard & Poor's lead automotive credit analyst Robert
Schulz, Jeff Green and Greg Bensinger at Bloomberg News report
that Ford  may be forced into bankruptcy as the global credit
freeze damps U.S. sales, and "macro factors could overwhelm them
at some point," even as Ford vows to stick with its turnaround
plans.

Ford's spokesperson Mark Truby said that the company has a cash
cushion, referring to $23.4 billion borrowed in 2006 to help pay
for closing down plants and cutting jobs while developing new
models, Bloomberg relates.  Ford is evaluating its liquidity, the
report says, citing Mr. Truby.

Mr. Mulally said Ford will discuss its future production levels
when it releases third-quarter results this month, WSJ relates.  
Ford must adjust its production to match softening demand, the
report says, citing Mr. Mulally.

FORD MOTOR: Lewis Booth Will Replace Don Leclair as CFO
-------------------------------------------------------
Ford Motor Co.'s Chief Financial Officer Don Leclair will retire
on Nov. 1, after an accomplished 32-year career.  

Mr. Leclair, 56, was named Executive Vice President and CFO in
August 2003.  He joined Ford in 1976.  "I have appreciated my time
at Ford and now look forward to spending more time with my family
and pursuing other interests," Mr. Leclair said.

Matthew Dolan and Jeff Bennett at The Wall Street Journal report
that Ford's President and CEO Alan Mulally said that Mr. Leclair's
retirement was not linked to differences over the future direction
of the company or prompted by some kind of financial surprise or
accounting change surfacing in Ford's coming quarterly report.

Lewis Booth -- who played a leading role in the successful
transformation of Ford of Europe and Mazda during the past decade
-- will become the company's Executive Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer.

Mr. Mulally said, "Don's expertise and business acumen have been
invaluable to Ford.  Under his leadership, Ford has made
significant progress in lowering costs, improving quality,
improving efficiency, divesting non-core assets, improving our
balance sheet and moving us to our One Ford."

Messrs. Leclair and Booth will work together in the coming weeks
to ensure a smooth transition.

Mr. Mulally said, "Lewis Booth is one of the strongest and most
experienced leaders within Ford and the auto industry.  He was
instrumental in the transformation of Mazda and Ford of Europe to
profitability and growth.  He has built a strong and successful
team in Ford of Europe that is well positioned to continue the
momentum.  And he has put in place new leadership at Volvo to turn
around its results and build the strength of this premium brand."

Mr. Booth comes to the CFO position with broad operational
experience in Europe, Asia, and North America as well as a deep
background in finance and product development.  Mr. Booth, 59, was
named to his present position in 2005 and also formerly was
responsible for the Premier Automotive Group.  He joined Ford of
Europe in 1978 as a financial analyst.  During his career, he has
had a series of senior leadership positions around the world,
including Ford of Europe, Ford Asia Pacific, Ford South Africa,
Mazda and Ford's Finance, Truck Operations, Product Development,
Manufacturing and Sales operations in Europe, Asia and North
America.

Mr. Mulally stated, "Lewis' global experience, track record and
many years of leadership in Ford's finance operations make him the
ideal CFO.  He has proven success integrating Ford of Europe into
a profitable, lean and highly efficient operation.  We now are
turning to Lewis to apply his extensive operational and financial
experience to work even closer with our operating teams around the
world as we accelerate the transition to our One Ford vision and,
in the process, transforming Ford into a lean global enterprise
and returning the company to sustainable profitability."

         New Executive Vice President at Ford Europe

Ford also said that John Fleming is appointed Executive Vice
President and Chairman and CEO, Ford of Europe, succeeding Mr.
Booth.  Mr. Fleming will assume responsibility for Ford of Europe,
Volvo Car Corporation, and Ford's Export Operations & Global
Growth Initiatives.  He will report directly to Mr. Mulally.

Mr. Mulally said, "John is a proven executive who has demonstrated
strong results.  Under John's leadership, Ford of Europe has grown
its sales and profitability.  I have every confidence he will
continue to lead Ford of Europe and now Volvo to even stronger
success in the future."

Mr. Fleming, 57, was named Group Vice President and President and
CEO, Ford of Europe, in 2005.  He joined Ford's manufacturing
operations in the UK in 1967.  During his career, Mr. Fleming has
served in a variety of leadership positions in Ford's global
Manufacturing operations, including managing four automotive
assembly plants and three stamping and component plants.

FORD MOTOR: Mulls Sale of Stake in Mazda Motor, WSJ Report Says
---------------------------------------------------------------
Ford Motor Co. is considering selling its 33.4% controlling stake
in Japan's Mazda Motor Corp., as part of an effort to boost its
finances amid a drop in global auto sales and investor questions
about its cash reserves, John F. Murphy and Matthew Dolan at The
Wall Street Journal report, citing a person familiar with the
matter.

According to WSJ, the source said that Ford is looking at selling
assets in advance of an expected substantial third-quarter loss.

WSJ relates that Mazda said it wasn't aware of Ford's plans to
sell its stake in the company.

Ford purchased a 25% stake in Mazda in 1979.  Ford increased its
share in Mazda to 33.4% when Mazda became mired in debt amid
declining sales in 1996.

WSJ states that Mazda had set in its four-year business plan a
goal of intensifying its partnership with Ford by sharing
personnel, platforms, dealership operations, the research and
development of hybrid cars, and joint manufacturing operations in
China, Thailand, and the U.S.

FORD MOTOR: S&P Puts 'B-' Long-Term Rating on Negative CreditWatch
------------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services placed its 'B-' long-term
corporate credit and other ratings on U.S. automaker Ford Motor
Co. on CreditWatch with negative implications.

"The CreditWatch placement reflects the rapidly weakening state of
most global automotive markets along with capital market
conditions that will remain a major challenge for the foreseeable
future," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Robert Schulz.  
Included in the CreditWatch placement is Ford's finance unit, Ford
Motor Credit Co. (B-/Watch Neg/--).  S&P believes Ford has
adequate liquidity for at least the rest of 2008 as measured by
cash balances, and available bank facilities, but the accelerating
deteriorating industry fundamentals will be a serious challenge to
liquidity during 2009.

Moody's upgraded Classes E, F, G and H due to increased credit
enhancement and defeasance and overall improved pool performance.

As of the September 11, 2008 distribution date, the transaction's
aggregate certificate balance has decreased by approximately 23.0%
to $771.9 million from $1.0 billion at securitization.  The
Certificates are collateralized by 111 mortgage loans ranging in
size from less than 1.0% to 5.4% of the pool, with the top 10
loans representing 25.7% of the pool.  The pool includes two loans
with investment grade underlying ratings, representing 10.4% of
the pool.  Twenty-nine loans, representing 27.0% of the pool, have
defeased and are collateralized with U.S. Government securities.

Four loans have been liquidated from the trust, resulting in an
aggregate realized loss of approximately $9.2 million.  Currently
there are no loans in special servicing.  Eighteen loans,
representing 19.6% of the pool, are on the master servicer's
watchlist.  The watchlist includes loans which meet certain
portfolio review guidelines established as part of the Commercial
Mortgage Securities Association's monthly reporting package.  As
part of its ongoing monitoring of a transaction, Moody's reviews
the watchlist to assess which loans have material issues that
could impact performance.

Moody's was provided with full-year 2007 operating results for
84.0% of the pool.  Moody's loan to value ratio for the conduit
component is 85.8% compared to 87.5% at Moody's prior full review
in August 2007 and 89.2% at securitization.

The largest loan with an underlying rating is the Holiday Inn --
57th Street Loan ($41.8 million -- 7.4%), which is secured by a
596-room full service hotel located in midtown Manhattan.  
Occupancy and RevPAR for calendar year 2007 were 89.2% and
$183.70, respectively, compared to 87.9% and $159.54 at last
review and 88.8% and $134.00 for calendar year 2000.  Moody's
current underlying rating is A1 compared to A3 at last review.

The second loan with an underlying rating is the Lake Buena Vista
Stores Loan ($17.0 million - 3.0%), which is secured by a 179,400
square foot factory outlet center located in Orlando, Florida.  
The center was 100.0% occupied as of February 2008 compared to
97.0% at last review.  The largest tenants include Vanity Fair,
Liz Claiborne and Reebok.  The loan has amortized approximately
12.5% since securitization on a 25-year schedule.  Moody's current
underlying rating is A3 compared to Baa3 at last review.

The top three conduit loans represent 12.3% of the outstanding
pool balance.  The largest conduit loan is the One Capital Loan
($25.9 million -- 4.6%), which is secured by two office buildings
totaling 201,700 square feet located in downtown Sacramento,
California.  The property was 83.7% leased as of December 2007
compared to 76.0% at last review.  The largest tenant is the
California Parks and Recreation which leases 32.2% of the premises
through April 2011.  Performance has improved since last review
due to increased occupancy and amortization.  The loan has
amortized approximately 7.5% since securitization on a 30-year
schedule. Moody's LTV is 94.1% compared to 111.5% at last review.

The second largest conduit loan is the Meadowbrook Commons Loan
($24.2 million -- 4.3%), which is secured by a 173,000 square foot
anchored retail center located in Freeport (Nassau County), New
York. The property was 93.8% leased as of December 2007 compared
to 95.0% at last review.  Anchors include Stop & Shop, Toys"R"Us
and Marshalls.  Moody's LTV is 87.8% compared to 89.5% at last
review.

The third largest conduit loan is the Dreamland Shopping Center &
Lowe's Loan ($19.4 million -- 3.4%), which is secured by a Lowe's
Home Improvement store and an adjacent 126,800 square foot
anchored retail center located in Asheville, North Carolina.  The
property was 97.0% occupied as of December 2007, the same as at
last review.  Moody's LTV is 86.7%, essentially the same as at
last review.

Moody's periodically completes full reviews in addition to
monitoring transactions on a monthly basis.  Moody's prior full
review is summarized in a press release dated August 16, 2007.

Moody's has published rating methodologies outlining its
analytical approach to surveillance and its approach to rating
conduit and fusion transactions.  In addition, Moody's has
published numerous articles outlining its ratings approach to the
various property types customarily deposited within these
transactions along with other articles on credit issues unique to
CMBS.  The major rating methodologies employed in analyzing this
transaction include:

CMBS: Moody's Approach to Surveillance, September 30, 2002 -- this
paper provides an overview of Moody's surveillance philosophy, an
indication of what prompts a conduit review, how conduit and large
loan monitoring is performed, and what its objectives are with
respect to post-closing requests and servicer reviews;

CMBS: Moody's Approach to Rating U.S. Conduit Transactions,
September 15, 2000 -- this paper provides an overview of rating
methodology and process with details on property level analysis,
loan level analysis, legal and structural characteristics, and
portfolio characteristics with supplementary information on legal
issues, a research summary, helpful information for commercial
real estate transactions, capitalization rates, and guidelines for
capital reserves; and

US CMBS: Moody's Approach to Rating Fusion Transactions, April 19,
2005 -- this paper discusses the key ratings factors for fusion
deals (large loan credit quality, composition and correlation of
the large loan pool, and conduit diversity), value drivers for
office and retail properties, valuation and cap rate issues,
property type volatility, Moody's large loan tranching
methodology, and an assessment of subordination levels.


GENERAL MOTORS: Analysts Worried Firm May Run Out of Cash
---------------------------------------------------------
Bill Vlasic at The New York Times reports that with vehicle sales
declining, analysts are concerned about the liquidity of General
Motors Corp. and Ford Motor Co. and their ability to finance
operations as their revenues decline and as they continue to eat
into cash reserves.

Dow Jones Newswires relates that as GM and Ford shares continue to
decline, concerns grew that the auto makers won't be able to turn
their operations around before running dangerously low on cash.  
Matthew Dolan and John Stoll at The Wall Street Journal report
that on Thursday, GM closed down 31%, or $2.15, at $4.76, while
Ford dropped 22%, or 58 cents, to $2.08, in New York Stock
Exchange composite trading.  WSJ states that GM ended the day with
a market value of $3.9 billion, while Ford had a $6 billion market
value.

According to Dow Jones, decline in the companies' domestic sales
aren't expected to improve in the near term.  

Dow Jones states that Gimme Credit high-yield analyst Shelly
Lombard wrote in a Thursday research note that Ford appears to
have enough liquidity between cash on hand and credit lines to
fund operations for nine to 12 quarters.  Dow Jones relates that
Ms. Lombard doubted Ford's long-term viability, saying that the
liquidity could evaporate soon as U.S. vehicle sales continue to
drop.

Dow Jones reports that Ford Chief Executive Alan Mulally said at
the Paris Auto Show that the company has the "appropriate amount"
of liquidity and that he will continue cutting production to meet
declining demand.  Investor Kirk Kerkorian, who owns a 6.5% stake
in Ford, has said he is willing to provide additional capital to
fund the company's restructuring, the report states.

                          *     *     *

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Aug. 5, 2008,
Fitch Ratings has downgraded the issuer default rating of Ford
Motor Company and Ford Motor Credit Company LLC to 'B-' from 'B'.  
The Rating Outlook remains Negative.  The downgrade reflects: the
further deterioration in Ford's U.S. sales as a result of economic
conditions, an adverse product mix and the most recent jump in gas
prices; portfolio deterioration at Ford Credit and heightened
concern regarding economic access to capital to support financing
requirements; and escalating commodity costs that will remain a
significant offset to cost reduction efforts.

GENERAL MOTORS: Says Bankruptcy Not an Option
---------------------------------------------
The Wall Street Journal reports that General Motors Corp. has
denied that it is considering filing for bankruptcy.

Frank Ahrens at The Washington Post relates that the plunge in
GM's shares of stock spurred speculation that the company might be
edging towards bankruptcy.  Citing Standard & Poor's lead
automotive credit analyst Robert Schulz, Jeff Green and Greg
Bensinger at Bloomberg News report that GM may be forced into
bankruptcy, as "macro factors could overwhelm them at some point,"
even as the company vows to stick with its turnaround plans.

GM said in a statement on Friday, "Clearly, we face unprecedented
challenges related to uncertainty in the financial markets
globally and weakening economic fundamentals in many key markets.  
But bankruptcy protection is not an option GM is considering."

According to Reuters, Barclays Capital also cut its price target
for GM on Friday, saying that GM's cash needs were increasing due
to the risk of weaker global auto sales.  Reuters states that
Barclays analyst Brian Johnson said in a note for clients, "With
auto sales stalled in the (United States) and beginning to
contract in the rest of the world, we believe GM's cash needs are
increasing."

Mr. Johnson said that GM would need to raise $10.3 billion to
maintain liquidity of $14 billion through next year, up from his
earlier estimate of $7.3 billion over the same period, Reuters
states.

WSJ relates that GM is expected to disclose more production
capacity reductions in the coming weeks, likely on closing plants
that stamp auto parts or build engines and transmissions.

GENERAL MOTORS: Market Woes Cue S&P to Put 'B-' Rating on WatchNeg
------------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services placed its ratings on U.S.
automaker General Motors Corp., including the 'B-' long-term
corporate credit rating, on CreditWatch with negative
implications.

"The CreditWatch placement reflects the rapidly weakening state of
most global automotive markets, along with capital market
conditions that will remain a serious challenge for the
foreseeable future," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Robert
Schulz.  S&P also placed its ratings on GM's 49%-owned finance
affiliate GMAC LLC, including the 'B-' long-term counterparty
credit rating, on CreditWatch with negative implications.  At this
time, ratings on GMAC unit Residential Capital LLC
(CCC+/Negative/C) are not on CreditWatch.

S&P believes GM currently has adequate liquidity for at least the
rest of 2008 as measured by cash balances and available bank
facilities, but the accelerating deterioration in industry
fundamentals will be a serious challenge to liquidity during 2009.

GITTO GLOBAL: Two Officers Arraigned on Conspiracy and Wire Fraud
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Martin Luttrell of the Telegram & Gazette (Worcester, Mass.)
reports that Gary C. Gitto and Charles N. Gitto Jr. of the former
Gitto Global Corp. plastics manufacturer, have been arraigned in
U.S. District Court on conspiracy charges and wire fraud.

A total of six officers and employees of Gitto Global Corp.
received federal grand jury indictments last month, according to
the report.

The report says the Gittos pleaded "not guilty" during the brief
arraignment.  A status conference has been set for Nov. 12.  If
found guilty of bank fraud, Gary Gitto faces a maximum jail time
of 30 years and a fine of $1 million, Asst. U.S. Attorney Lori J.
Holik said.  A guilty verdict on the charge of wire fraud, which
both men face, could mean jail time of up to 20 years and a fine
of up to $250,000, she said.

The indictment says the six "conspired to provide false reports to
lenders, set up sham sales and shell companies, and used money
from the lenders for personal use".

Headquartered in Lunenburg, Massachusetts, Gitto Global
Corporation -- http://www.gitto-global.com/-- manufactured    
polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene and thermoplastic
olefinic compounds.  The company filed for chapter 11 protection
on September 24, 2004 (Bankr. D. Mass. Case No. 04-45386).  Andrew
G. Lizotte, Esq., at Hanify & King P.C., represented the Debtor in
its restructuring efforts.  When the Debtor filed for protection
from its creditors, it listed assets of $10 million to
$50 million, and debts of $50 million to $100 million.  On
March 4, 2005, the Court converted the Debtor's chapter 11 case

Chapter 7 Trustee.

GSC ABS: Moody's Cuts Rating on $26MM Class A3 Notes to 'C'

Interest Floating Rate Notes due November 12, 2045

  -- Prior Rating: Ca
  -- Prior Rating Date: 6/9/2008
  -- Current Rating: C

According to Moody's, these rating actions are as a result of the
deterioration in the credit quality of the transaction's
underlying collateral pool consisting primarily of structured
finance securities.


GSMPS MORTGAGE: S&P Cuts Class B-5 Certificates Rating to 'CCC'
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on the
following three classes from GSMPS Mortgage Loan Trust 2006-RP1:
class B-5 to 'CCC' from 'B'; class B-4 to 'B' from 'BB'; and class
B-3 to 'BBB-' from 'BBB'.  At the same time, S&P affirmed its
ratings on the 10 remaining classes from this transaction.

The downgrades of classes B-5, B-4, and B-3 reflect collateral
performance that is negatively affecting available credit support.  
As of the September 2008 remittance period, cumulative losses for
series 2006-RP1 were 0.32% of the original principal balance,
total delinquencies were 27.95% of the current principal balance,
and severe delinquencies were 15.18% of the current principal
balance.

Monthly realized losses for this transaction have averaged
approximately $81,973 for the past 12 months and approximately
$84,580 over the past six months.  S&P believes the increase in
average losses over the past six months is consistent with the
delinquency trends we're observing for this deal.  Overall,
the total delinquencies have increased during this six-month
period by approximately $893,000:

Delinquencies (Mil $)

Date          30-day    60-day    90-day    Foreclosure    REO
----          ------    ------    ------    -----------    ----
Sept. 2008    29.140    14.741    33.305    17.882         1.085
April 2008    25.155    12.529    31.760    24.821         0.935
   
This negative trend is also evident in the credit support
available to the downgraded classes, as depicted in the table:

Credit Support (Mil $)

Class    Sept. 2008        April 2008     Change ($)   Change (%)
-----    ----------        ----------     ----------   ----------
B-3       4,040,454         4,503,389       (71,577)      (10.28)
B-4       2,266,226         2,712,548       (68,498)      (16.45)
B-5       1,252,653         1,689,484       (66,738)      (25.86)
Total     7,559,333         7,766,146      (206,813)       (2.66)

If delinquencies continue to translate into realized losses, S&P  
will likely take further negative rating actions on the
outstanding classes from this transaction.     

Conversely, the affirmations reflect current credit support levels
that S&P believes are sufficient to maintain the certificates at
their current rating levels.  Specifically, the current
subordination available to support the A class certificates is
approximately $10,884,444, compared with $8,348,615 and $6,067,601
for the B-1 and B-2 classes, respectively.  

The transaction is 32 months seasoned and has a pool balance of
64.29%.  Subordination provides credit support for this
transaction.

The pool originally consisted of U.S. Federal Housing
Administration, U.S. Veterans Affairs, or Rural Housing Service  
fixed- and adjustable-rate reperforming mortgage loans.  The
mortgage loans are secured by first liens on one- to four-family
residential properties.

HUNTSMAN CORP: Hexion Gets $540MM from Parent to Acquire Firm
-------------------------------------------------------------
Jack Kaskey at Bloomberg News reports that Hexion Specialty
Chemicals Inc. said that its parent company, Apollo Management LP,
contributed $540 million in capital to help complete the takeover
of Huntsman Corp.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Oct. 6, 2008, the
Delaware Court of Chancery entered judgment in favor of Huntsman,
denying all declarations sought by Apollo and Hexion in their suit
requesting that the Chancery Court excuse Hexion from its
obligation to consummate the pending transaction.  Huntsman
obtained a temporary restraining order to prevent banks from
continuing to interfere and thwart Huntsman's rights under the
Hexion Merger Agreement.  Apollo and Hexion had alleged that
Huntsman was not entitled to a $325 million break up fee and had
suffered a Material Adverse Effect since signing the Merger
Agreement and that a solvency certificate or opinion could not be
provided for the combined Hexion/Huntsman entity at the closing.  
Both allegations were soundly rejected by the Chancery Court.

According to Bloomberg, Charles Elson, director of the John
Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance at the University of
Delaware in Newark, said that Apollo's contribution signals that
Hexion may try to complete the deal.  Citing Hexion, Bloomberg
says that Apollo's contribution addresses financial issues raised
by the court decision.

Hexion said in a statement that it is discussing with Huntsman "a
wide range of matters" and is moving to close the deal, valued at
$28 a share.

Hexion, under the merger agreement and by the court's order, must
prove to lenders Deutsche Bank AG and Credit Suisse Group AG that
the combined company would be solvent, Bloomberg states, citing
Huntsman spokesperson Russ Stolle, who suggested that Hexion could
raise additional capital.

Hexion, according to Bloomberg, said that Apollo will also waive
its $102 million transaction fee for the merger and suspend
monitoring fees payable by Hexion for three years.

Bloomberg relates that Huntsman said it would seek at least
$3 billion in damages once Hexion fails to complete the deal.  
U.S. and European antitrust regulators has approved the merger,
the report says.

                    Annual Meeting Postponed

Huntsman delayed its annual meeting due to pending merger.  
Huntsman, in order to assure compliance with annual meeting
requirements of the New York Stock Exchange, is taking steps to
hold its 2008 annual meeting of stockholders on Nov. 19, 2008.

Peter R. Huntsman, President and CEO of Huntsman, said, "The
annual meeting had been postponed pending completion of the merger
with Hexion, but in light of the delays caused by the litigation
initiated by Hexion, and in order to assure compliance with annual
meeting requirements, we are taking steps to prepare to hold the
annual meeting for 2008.  We, of course, are continuing to seek
consummation of the merger and this announcement nor our planning
an annual meeting has any effect on that."

The exact time and location of the meeting will be included in the
definitive proxy statement, which will be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and sent to stockholders prior
to the meeting.

According to Bloomberg, Trace, the bond-price reporting system of
the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, said that Hexion's
$625 million of 9.75% bonds due in November 2014 jumped 16.5 cents
to 83.5 cents on the dollar at 11:15 a.m. in New York, after
trading 67 cents on Oct. 8.  Bloomberg states that the bonds
yielded 14%, or 1,108 basis points more than a similar-maturity
U.S. Treasury.  Debt that trades at a spread of 1,000 basis points
or more to Treasuries is considered "distressed," which means that
investors are concerned that the issuer will default.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Oct. 3, 2008,
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said that its ratings on Salt
Lake City, Utah-based Huntsman Corp. and Columbus, Ohio-based
Hexion Specialty Chemicals Inc. remain on CreditWatch with
negative implications, where they were placed on July 5, 2007.  
The initial CreditWatch placement followed the announcement of
Hexion's proposed debt-financed acquisition of Huntsman in a
transaction valued at more than $10 billion, including assumed
debt.
     
This CreditWatch update follows the ruling in the Court of
Chancery of the State of Delaware related to Huntsman's lawsuit
with Hexion and its owner, Apollo Management LLC.  Hexion argued
that the merger is no longer viable based on the proposed highly
leveraged capital structure of the combined company.  Hexion cited
several factors supporting this conclusion, including Huntsman's
increased debt and lower-than-expected earnings, and Hexion's
belief that the lenders will not provide the committed financing
required to complete the transaction as proposed.

JEFFERSON COUNTY: Gets Another Bank Reprieve From Bond Crisis
-------------------------------------------------------------
William Selway of Bloomberg News reports that by a vote of 3-2,
Jefferson County, Alabama's elected commission approved extending
until Oct. 31, 2008, an agreement with JPMorgan Chase & Co. and
other creditors that allows Jefferson County to postpone interest
payments that would have been due.  The report says the agreement
allows the county to avoid making full payments on its
$3.2 billion of bond debts as it seeks a way to avert bankruptcy.  
Since borrowing costs soared early this year, the county has
relied on such agreements to buy time to refinance its debts,
according to the report.

JPMorgan, the county's bond insurers and other creditors have
agreed to reduce the county's debts on its bonds and related
interest-rate swaps by about $1 billion, officials say, as long
as the county backs its refinanced debt with higher sewer rates
and a portion of the sales tax money that is now collected for
schools, according to the report.  The use of the sales tax
requires the approval of the Legislature, which has yet to support
it, according to the report.

                     About Jefferson County

Jefferson County has its seat in Birmingham.  It has a population
of 660,000.  It ended its 2006 fiscal year with a $42.6 million
general fund balance, according to Standard & Poor's.  The
Birmingham firm of Bradley Arant Rose & White, represents
Jefferson County.  Porter, White & Co. in Birmingham is the
county's financial adviser.  A bankruptcy by Jefferson County
stands to be the largest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history.  It
could beat the record of $1.7 billion, set by Orange County,
California in 1994.

                          *     *     *

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on June 10, 2008,
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services' ratings on Jefferson County,
Ala.'s series 1997A, series 2001A, series 2003 B-1-A through 2003

bonds ('CCC' underlying rating [SPUR]) remain on CreditWatch with
developing implications.

As reported by the TCR on July 22, 2008, Moody's Investors
Service's continues to review the Caa3 rating on Jefferson
County's (AL) $3.2 billion in outstanding sewer revenue
warrants for possible downgrade.


JHT HOLDINGS: Court Approves Second Amended Chapter 11 Plan
-----------------------------------------------------------
The Hon. Brendan L. Shannon of the United States Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Delaware confirmed a second amended joint
Chapter 11 plan of reorganization filed by JHT Holdings Inc. and
its debtor-affiliates on Oct. 6, 2008.  Judge Shannon held that
the amended plan met the requirements under Section 1129 of the
United States Bankruptcy Code.

The amended plan is expected to become effective by Oct. 22, 2008.

All final request for allowance and compensation of professionals
fees must be filed no later than 45 days after the amended plan's
effective date.

The Debtors state that the plan maximizes their value and that
any alternative to confirmation of the plan, such as liquidation
or an alternative plan, would result in significant delays,
litigation and additional costs.

Jeffrey L. Pirrung, senior vice president of Administar Services
Group LLC, disclosed the results of the voting and tabulation of
the ballots for the Debtors' plan:

A. Class 2 prepetition facility claims

                        Accept         Reject
                        ------         ------
   Count                38             0  
   Total Ballot Amount  $47,636,557    $0

B. Class 5 general unsecured claims

                        Accept         Reject
                        ------         ------
   Count                55             7
   Total Ballot Amount  $313,495       $15,911,571

Air Components & Systems Ltd., RD Holder Oil Co. Inc., Latch
Machinery, Accurate Auto Carriers Inc., Liberty Mutual Insurance
Company, Brown Hill & Ritter, and Key Equipment Finance rejected
the Debtors' plan.  In a complaint filed with the Court, Liberty
Mutual said that the Debtors' plan is defective, which plan is an
attempt to preserve certain equity rights, insulate insiders and
key groups from liability, and temporarily prop up the Debtors'
balance sheet at the expense of certain creditors.

Liberty Mutual holds $15.9 million in prepetition claims arising
from unpaid premiums due from the Debtors under its compensation,
general liability and auto insurance coverage from Oct. 1, 2004,
to Sept. 30, 2007, and $7.2 million in administrative claims for
retro-premium obligations arising under the current year's policy
from Oct. 1, 2007, to Sept. 30, 2008.

Accordingly, the Debtors and Liberty Mutual entered into an
agreement to comprise and settle certain claims.  Under the
agreement, Liberty Mutual will be paid (i) $2.1 million in
administrative claims after the plan's effective date, and (ii)
$15.9 million in unsecured claims.  In turn, all other claims
asserted by Liberty Mutual will be disallowed.

                       Overview of the Plan

The amended plan contains certain agreements and compromises
between the Debtors, the prepetition lenders, and the Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditors that contemplates:

  -- the payment in full, in cash, of all allowed prepetition
     advances claims, DIP facility claims, administrative and
     priority claims;

  -- the exchange of the prepetition lenders' secured claims for:

      i) the exit second-lien loan in the principal amount of
         $60,000,000; and

     ii) 70% of the new stock of reorganized holdings;

  -- the payment of a distribution to the holders of allowed
     Class 5 general unsecured claims in the aggregate amount of
     $1,350,000, less certain fees and expense, pursuant to a
     settlement agreement;

  -- the reinstatement of intercompany claims and interests; and

  -- the discharge of all other claims without recovery, and
     cancellation of all other equity interests.

                  Settlements With The Committee
                     and Prepetition Lenders

The salient terms of the settlement entered among the Debtors,
prepetition lenders and the Committee includes, among other
things:

A. Distribution to general unsecured creditors

   The plan requires the prepetition lenders and the Debtors to
   establish a settlement fund in the amount of $1,350,000 from
   the prepetitition lenders' collateral, to be held by the
   reorganized Debtors for the benefit of the general unsecured
   creditors and, upon the allowance of the claims, distributed
   to general unsecured creditors.

B. Committee's professionals

   The Debtors and the prepetiton lenders agreed to pay fees and
   expenses for the Committee's professionals as may be approved
   by the Court for the period from formation of the Committee
   on July 8, 2008, until Aug. 29, 2008.  In addition, fees and
   expenses of the Committee's professionals will be paid out of
   the settlement fund.

C. Avoidance claims

   The Debtors' estates agreed to waive all potential avoidance
   claims under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code.

D. Lien challenges

   The Committee agreed to terminate the period provided in the
   final DIP order for it to challenge the validity, extent of
   priority of the prepetition lenders' liens, among other
   things.

E. No deficiency claim

   The prepetition lenders agreed to waive their $65,000,000
   unsecured deficiency claim under Section 506(a)(1) of the
   Bankruptcy Code.

F. Mutual releases

   The Debtors, the prepetition lenders and the Committee agreed
   to exchange certain releases under the plan.

                  Debtor-in-Possession Financing

Prior to their bankruptcy filing, the Debtors entered into a
lockup agreement with their prepetition lenders on June 23, 2008.  
The lockup agreement includes, among other things:

   -- terms for the proposed first-lien exit revolving lien with a
      maximum commitment of $35,000,000 and second-lien exit term
      loan in the principal amount of $60,000,000;

   -- a fully-negotiated senior secured debtors-in-possession
      credit agreement with availability of up to:

        i) $22,000,000, on interim basis, and

       ii) $25,000,000, on final basis;

   -- terms for the new stock to be issued by the reorganized
      holdings; and

   -- certain corporate governance terms including voting rights
      and the composition of the initial board of directors of the
      reorganized holdings.

The amended plan classifies interests against and liens in the
Debtors in nine classes.  The classification of interests and
claims are:

Holders of Class 1 prepetition advance claims will be paid in
full, in cash, on the distribution date.

Each holders of Class 2 prepetition facilities claims will
receive a pro rata share of (i) the exit second-lien loan; and

JP MORGAN: Moody's Junks Rating on $2.5MM Class P Certificates
--------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service upgraded the ratings of five rake
classes, downgraded two pooled classes and affirmed 16 pooled
classes of J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp.,
Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2004-C2 as:

  -- Class A-1, $48,565,956, affirmed at Aaa
  -- Class A-2, $100,000,000, affirmed at Aaa
  -- Class A-3, $431,388,000, affirmed at Aaa
  -- Class A-1A, $258,411,129, affirmed at Aaa
  -- Class X, Notional, affirmed at Aaa
  -- Class B, $24,581,000, affirmed at Aa2
  -- Class C, $10,350,000, affirmed at Aa3

  -- Class G, $7,762,000, affirmed at Baa2
  -- Class H, $11,643,000, affirmed at Baa3
  -- Class J, $6,469,000, affirmed at Ba1
  -- Class K, $5,175,000, affirmed at Ba2
  -- Class L, $2,587,000, affirmed at Ba3
  -- Class M, $3,881,000, affirmed at B1
  -- Class N, $2,588,000, downgraded to B3 from B2
  -- Class P, $2,587,000, downgraded to Caa1 from B3
  -- Class RP-1, $5,584,562, upgraded to A1 from A2
  -- Class RP-2, $4,332,850, upgraded to A2 from A3
  -- Class RP-3, $4,573,564, upgraded to A3 from Baa1
  -- Class RP-4, $4,959,706, upgraded to Baa1 from Baa2
  -- Class RP-5, $7,510,274, upgraded to Baa2 from Baa3

Moody's upgraded Classes RP-1, RP-2, RP-3, RP-4 and RP-5 due to
the improved performance of Republic Plaza, which is the
collateral for these non-pooled rake classes.  The downgrade of
Classes N and P is due to realized and estimated losses from
specially serviced loans and increased dispersion.

As of the September 15, 2008 distribution date, the transaction's
aggregate certificate balance has decreased by approximately 5.7%
to $1.0 billion from $1.1 billion at securitization.  The
Certificates are collateralized by 128 mortgage loans ranging in
size from less than 1.0% to 12.9% of the pool, with the top 10
loans representing 49.0% of the pool.  The pool includes three
loans, representing 25.1% of the pool, with investment grade
underlying ratings.  Thirteen loans, representing 8.4% of the pool
balance, have defeased and are collateralized by U.S. Government
securities.

Three loans have been liquidated from the pool, resulting in an
aggregate loss of approximately $500,000.  Currently one loan,
representing less than 1.0% of the pool, is in special servicing.  
Moody's is estimating a $1.5 million loss from this specially
serviced loan.  Twenty four loans, representing 12.2% of the pool,
are on the master servicer's watchlist.  The watchlist includes
loans which meet certain portfolio review guidelines established
as part of the Commercial Mortgage Securities Association's
monthly reporting package.

As part of Moody's ongoing monitoring of a transaction, Moody's
reviews the watchlist to assess which loans have material issues
that could impact performance.  Moody's is concerned about two
loans, representing 2.9% of the pool, that are currently on the
watch list due to debt service coverage ratios below 1.0x.  Both
loans are secured by multifamily properties located in Texas that
have experienced occupancy declines and operating expense
increases.

Moody's was provided with year-end 2007 and partial year 2008
operating results for approximately 98.4% and 34.8%, respectively,
of the pool.  Moody's loan to value ratio for the conduit
component is 87.4% compared to 88.5% at Moody's prior full review
in January 2007 and 91.2% at securitization.  Although the overall
pool performance has been stable, the pool has experienced
increased LTV dispersion since securitization.  Based on Moody's
analysis, 5.2% of the pool has a LTV in excess of 120.0% compared
to 2.2% at last review and 0.0% at securitization.

The largest loan with an underlying rating is the Somerset
Collection Loan ($125.5 million - 12.9%), which is a 50.0% pari
passu interest in a $251.0 million first mortgage loan.  The loan
is secured by the borrower's interest in a 1.4 million square foot
regional mall located in Troy, Michigan.  The mall is the dominant
mall in its trade area and is anchored by Macy's, Nordstrom, Saks
Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus.  The in-line space was 97.5%
occupied as of June 2008, essentially the same as at last review.  
Performance has improved due to increased rental revenues.  The
loan is interest only for its entire 10-year term.  Moody's
current underlying rating is A1 compared to A2 at last review.

The second loan with an underlying rating is the Republic Plaza
Loan ($103.0 million -- 10.6%), which represents the pooled
portion of a $133.7 million first mortgage loan.  The non-pooled
portion ($27.0 million) is in the trust and supports non-pooled
Classes RP-1, RP-2, RP-3, RP-4 and RP-5.  The loan is secured by a
1.3 million square foot Class A office building located in
downtown Denver, Colorado.  The property was 97.8% occupied as of
December 2007 compared to 86.0% at last review and 79.9% at
securitization.  The largest tenants include Teacher's Insurance
and Annuity Association of America (25.0% NRA; lease expiration
December 2008) and Duke Energy Field Services (9.2% NRA; lease
expiration May 2016).  

Teacher's is vacating its premises at the expiration of its lease,
but its space has already been leased to Encana Oil and Gas
through April 2019.  Performance has improved due to increased
occupancy and amortization.  Moody's current underlying rating of
the pooled portion of the loan is Aa3 compared to A1 at last
review.

The third loan with an underlying rating is the Amerige Heights
Town Center Loan ($16.5 million -- 1.7%), which is secured by a
97,000 square foot community shopping center located in Fullerton,
California.  The property was 100.0% occupied as of March 2008
compared to 97.9% at last review.  The property is anchored by
Albertsons (59.5% GLA; lease expiration April 2027) and is part of
a larger retail center that is anchored by Target, Ross, Linen-n-
Things and Old Navy.  The loan matures in December 2008.  Moody's
current underlying rating is Baa3, the same as at last review.

The top three conduit loans represent 16.6% of the outstanding
pool balance. The largest conduit loan is the Hometown America
Portfolio VII Loan ($94.9 million -- 9.7%), which is secured by 13
manufactured housing communities located in Florida (5), Michigan
(4), Massachusetts, New Jersey, Colorado and Illinois.  The
portfolio totals 3,900 pads.  The portfolio was 95.0% leased as of
December 2007, the same as last review.  Moody's LTV is 80.1%
compared to 82.5% at last review.

The second largest conduit loan is the Robert Duncan Plaza Loan
($41.5 million -- 4.3%), which is secured by a 322,600 square foot
Class A office building located in downtown Portland, Oregon.  The
anchor tenant is the GSA, which leases 96.6% of the premises under
several leases expiring in September 2011.  The property was
100.0% leased as of December 2007 compared to 98.4% at last
review.  Moody's LTV is 82.5% compared to 78.5% at last review.

The third largest conduit loan is the Shoppes at English Village
Loan ($25.6 million -- 2.6%), which is secured by a 103,000 square
foot lifestyle retail center located approximately 30 miles
northwest of downtown Philadelphia in North Wales, Pennsylvania.  
The center was 92.5% occupied at of March 2008 compared to 98.5%
at last review and 96.2% at securitization.  The largest tenants
are Talbots (10.5% GLA; lease expiration January 2016), Iron Hill
Brewery & Restaurant (8.7% GLA; lease expiration November 2014)
and Banana Republic (6.7% GLA; lease expiration October 2013).  
Performance has declined due to decreased occupancy and increased
operating expenses.  The decline in performance has been partially
offset by amortization.  The loan has amortized 6.1% since
securitization.  Moody's LTV is 92.3% compared to 92.1% at last
review.

Moody's periodically completes full reviews in addition to
monitoring transactions on a monthly basis.  Moody's prior full
review is summarized in a press release dated January 5, 2007.

Moody's has published rating methodologies outlining its  
analytical approach to surveillance and its approach to rating
conduit and fusion transactions.  In addition, Moody's has
published numerous articles outlining its ratings approach to the
various property types customarily deposited within these
transactions along with other articles on credit issues unique to
CMBS.  The major rating methodologies employed in analyzing this
transaction include:

  -- Class M, $7,196,000, downgraded to B3 from B1
  -- Class N, $7,197,000, downgraded to Caa1 from B2

Moody's downgraded Classes K, L, M and N due to realized losses
from specially serviced loans and increased dispersion.

As of the September 15, 2008 distribution date, the transaction's
aggregate certificate balance has decreased by approximately 4.0%
to $2.76 billion from $2.88 billion at securitization.  The
Certificates are collateralized by 228 mortgage loans ranging in
size from less than 1.0% to 7.6% of the pool, with the top 10
loans representing 39.4% of the pool.  The pool includes two loans
with investment grade underlying ratings, representing 8.6% of the
outstanding loan balance.  Twenty loans, representing 9.7% of the
pool, have defeased and are collateralized by U.S. Government
securities.

Four loans were liquidated in July 2008, resulting in an aggregate
$19.3 million loss.  Currently two loans, representing less than
1.0% of the pool, are in special servicing.  Moody's is projecting
a $2.4 million aggregate loss for the specially serviced loans.  
Twenty loans, representing 13.7% of the pool, are on the master
servicer's watchlist.  The watchlist includes loans which meet
certain portfolio review guidelines established as part of the
Commercial Mortgage Securities Association's monthly reporting
package.  As part of Moody's ongoing monitoring of a transaction,
Moody's reviews the watchlist to assess which loans have material
issues that could impact performance.

Moody's was provided with full-year 2007 operating results for
80.2% of the pool.  Moody's average weighted loan to value ratio
for the conduit component is 92.1% compared to 94.2% at Moody's
prior full review in May 2007 and 94.6% at securitization.  
Although the weighted average LTV has declined since
securitization, the pool is experiencing increased LTV dispersion.
Based on Moody's analysis, 29.4% of the conduit pool has an LTV
greater than 100.0% compared to 26.1% at last review and 27.0% at
securitization.

The largest loan with an underlying rating is the Woodbridge
Center Loan ($210.4 million -- 7.6%), which is secured by the
borrower's interest in a 1.6 million square foot (557,000 square
feet of collateral) regional mall located in Woodbridge, New
Jersey.  The mall is anchored by Sears, Macy's, Lord & Taylor,
J.C. Penney, Fortunoff and Dick's Sporting Goods.  The in-line
stores were 97.7% leased as of March 2008 compared to 91.6% at
last review.  The loan sponsor is General Growth Properties, Inc.
The loan has amortized 6.1% since securitization.  Moody's current
underlying rating is A3 compared to Baa1 at last review.

The second loan with an underlying rating is the Harbor Court Loan

interest in land beneath a 31-story mixed-use project located in
Honolulu, Hawaii.  The improvements consist of a 202,000 square
foot office building, 120 residential condominium units and a
1,046-space parking structure.  The loan is interest only for its
entire term. Moody's current underlying rating is Baa3, the same
as at securitization.

The three largest conduit exposures represent 16.0% of the pool.   
The largest conduit loan is the One River Place Apartments Loan
($195.7 million - 7.1%), which is secured by a 921-unit Class A
multifamily property located in New York City.  The property also
includes 42,000 square feet of ground floor retail space.  The
property was 95.0% occupied as of December 2007 compared to 98.7%
at last review.  Although rental revenues have increased since
securitization, the property's financial performance has been
impacted by increased operating expenses, especially real estate
taxes. Moody's LTV is 91.1%, the same as at last review.

The second largest conduit loan is the Pier 39 Loan
($151.3 million - 5.5%), which is secured by the leasehold
interest in a 242,300 square foot specialty shopping center
located in the Fisherman's Wharf area in San Francisco,
California.  The property was 92.0% leased as of March 2008
compared to 98.1% at last review.  Performance has declined since
securitization due to increased operating expenses and ground rent
payments.  Moody's LTV is 105.6% compared to 102.0% at last
review.

The third largest conduit loan is the Westbury Plaza Loan
($93.6 million -- 3.4%), which is secured by a 399,000 square foot

LANDMARK II: S&P Cuts Class D Notes' Rating to 'CCC'
----------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on the
class C and D notes issued by Landmark II CDO Ltd., an arbitrage
high-yield collateralized loan obligation transaction managed by
Aladdin Capital Management LLC.  The class C and D note ratings
remain on CreditWatch with negative implications.  Concurrently,
S&P affirmed its ratings on the class A and B notes.

The downgrades reflect a decline in par value caused by the sale
of long-dated assets that the transaction was carrying in its
portfolio.  Until the month of August 2008, the transaction
carried approximately $80 million in assets (more than 42% of the
total collateral) with maturity dates that were later than the
maturity date of the transaction, thus exposing the transaction
to potential market value risks.  The transaction has since sold
more than 75% of its long-dated securities, worth more than
$59.67 million in par, netting $51.93 million in proceeds.

The transaction's loss of about $7.6 million in par value, along
with the deprivation of potential excess spread from the long-
dated securities that were sold, has eroded the credit support
available to the class C and D notes, leading to the downgrades of
these tranches.  Additionally, the acknowledgement of long-dated
assets in the portfolio caused the transaction to fail all of its
par coverage tests during the September payment period, resulting
in the deferment of interest to the class C and D notes.

The ratings assigned to the class B and class C notes remain on
CreditWatch negative pending the liquidation of the remaining
long-dated assets.  Standard & Poor's will continue to monitor the
performance of the transaction to ensure that the ratings continue
to reflect the credit quality of the obligors within the
collateral pool and that the credit enhancement available is
sufficient to support the rated notes.

LEAR CORPORATION: Reduces 2008 Sales Outlook by $1,000,000,000
--------------------------------------------------------------
Lear Corp. disclosed that as a result of deteriorating and
volatile industry and general economic conditions, it is reducing
its full-year 2008 sales outlook from $15 billion to approximately
$14 billion and now sees income before interest, other expense,
income taxes, restructuring costs and other special items down
about 20% from the previous guidance of $550 million to
$600 million provided on July 29, 2008, based on current
production estimates.  Even with the lower sales and earnings
forecast, Lear expects to generate positive free cash flow for the
year.

Rapidly declining North American vehicle sales and production
generally, combined with a major shift in product mix to smaller
passenger vehicles in the U.S., as well as slowing sales and lower
production in Europe are the major factors impacting the company's
financial outlook for the remainder of 2008.

"Lear has been very pro-active in restructuring global operations
and taking steps to maintain a strong liquidity position," said
Bob Rossiter, Lear's chairman, chief executive officer and
president.  "As conditions have deteriorated, we have aggressively
responded by taking actions to reduce our cost structure.  As a
result, we expect to generate positive free cash flow for the
year.  However, like all automotive suppliers, we are being
adversely impacted by lower production volumes."

Based in Southfield, Michigan, Lear Corporation (NYSE: LEA) --
http://www.lear.com/-- supplies automotive seating systems,     
electrical distribution systems and electronic products.  Lear's
world-class products are designed, engineered and manufactured by
a diverse team of more than 90,000 employees at 236 facilities in
33 countries.  Lear's headquarters are in Southfield, Michigan.

                          *     *     *

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter on Sept. 30, 2008,
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services has raised its issue-level
rating on Lear Corp.'s $1 billion senior secured term loan
facility ($988 million outstanding) to 'BB' from 'BB-' and revised
the recovery rating to '1' from '2'.  In addition, S&P lowered its
issue-level ratings on Lear's senior unsecured notes to 'B' from
'B+' and revised the recovery rating to '5' from '4', indicating
the expectation of modest recovery in the event of a payment
default.

LUMINENT MORTGAGE: Wants To Be Declared As Arco Loan-Compliant
--------------------------------------------------------------
Dawn McCarty of Bloomberg News reports that Luminent Mortgage
Capital, Inc., and its debtor-affiliates asked the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Maryland to declare them as in
compliance with a loan agreement with Arco Capital Corp. in an
expedited hearing.

The Debtors told the Court, according to the report, that Arco
sent default notices on Oct 3. and 6 advising that they hadn't
complied with the financing agreement.

BankruptcyData.com reported Thursday that the Bankruptcy Court  
issued a final order approving Luminent Mortgage's emergency
motion to reconsider the Court's earlier order denying the
Debtors' request to obtain postpetition, secured, super-priority
financing from Arco.

On September 10, 2008, the Bankruptcy Court authorized the
Debtors, on an interim basis, to enter into the Arco DIP Facility
and access $400,000 under the Facility.  The Facility provides for
loans of up to $3.2 million to fund postpetition operations and
certain reorganization expenses.  Loans under the Facility bear an
interest rate of LIBOR plus 2% per annum and the maturity date of
the Facility is the earlier of the effective date of a confirmed
plan of reorganization, January 31, 2009, or the termination of
the commitment by Arco to make loans upon the occurance of an
event of default or the acceleration of the outstanding
obligations.

The Facility is subject to additional terms and conditions,
including the adherence to an operating budget, and can be
terminated at any time due to an event of default as specified in
the Facility at which time all loans plus accrued interest would
become immediately due and payable. Repayment of the loan is
collateralized by a security interest in property owned by the
Debtors or certain of their subsidiaries.

                    About Luminent Mortgage

Luminent Mortgage Capital, Inc. (OTCBB: LUMCE) is a real estate
investment trust, or REIT, which, together with its subsidiaries,
has historically invested in two core mortgage investment
strategies. Under its Residential Mortgage Credit strategy, the
Company invests in mortgage loans purchased from selected high-
quality providers within certain established criteria as well as
subordinated mortgage-backed securities and other asset-backed
securities that have credit ratings below AAA.  Under its Spread
strategy, the Company invests primarily in U.S. agency and other
highly-rated single-family, adjustable-rate and hybrid adjustable-
rate mortgage-backed securities.

Luminent and nine subsidiaries filed September 5, 2008, for relief
under Chapter 11 of the U.S Bankruptcy Code in the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland, Baltimore Division
(Lead Case No. 08-21389).  Immediately prior to the filing, the
Debtor executed a Plan Support and Forbearance Agreement with
secured creditor Arco Capital Corp., Ltd., WAMU Capital Corp. and
convertible noteholders representing 100% of the outstanding
principal amount of its convertible notes.

Bloomberg News reports that Luminent listed debts of $484,100,000
and assets of $13,400,000 as of July 31, 2008.  Bloomberg adds
that 30 largest unsecured creditors are owed a total of
$221,800,000.  Wells Fargo & Co., indenture trustee for Luminent's
8-1/8% bonds due in 2027, is listed as the largest unsecured
creditor. The principal amount owed under the bonds is
$90,000,000, Bloomberg says.

Luminent and its debtor-subsidiaries continue to operate their
business as debtors-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the
Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions
of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.


MAIN STREET: Monroe Bank Takes All Deposits, FDIC as Receiver
-------------------------------------------------------------
Main Street Bank of Northville, Michigan, was closed today by the
Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Regulation, and the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was named receiver.  
To protect the depositors, the FDIC approved the assumption of all
the deposits of Main Street Bank, by Monroe Bank & Trust, Monroe,
Michigan.

All depositors of Main Street Bank, including any with deposits in
excess of the FDIC's insurance limits, will automatically become
depositors of Monroe Bank & Trust, and they will continue to have
uninterrupted access to their money.  Depositors will still be
insured with the new institution.  Therefore, there is no need for
customers to change their banking relationship to retain deposit
insurance.

The failed bank's two offices reopened Saturday, October 11, as
branches of Monroe Bank & Trust.  Over the weekend, customers of
Main Street Bank can access their money by writing checks or using
ATM or debit cards.  Checks drawn on the bank will continue to be
processed. Loan customers should continue to make their payments
as usual.

Main Street Bank had total assets of $98 million in total assets
and $86 million in total deposits as of October 7, 2008.

Monroe Bank & Trust has agreed to pay a total premium of 1 percent
for the failed bank's deposits.  In addition, Monroe Bank & Trust
will purchase approximately $16.9 million of Main Street's assets,
and have a 90-day option to purchase approximately $1.1 million in
premises and fixed assets.  The FDIC will retain the remaining
assets for later disposition.

The FDIC estimates that the cost to its Deposit Insurance Fund
will be between $33 million and $39 million.  Monroe Bank &
Trusts' acquisition of all deposits was the "least costly"
resolution for the FDIC's Deposit Insurance Fund compared to all
alternatives because the expected losses to uninsured depositors
were fully covered by the premium paid for the failed bank's
franchise.

Main Street Bank is the first bank to be closed in Michigan since
New Century Bank, Shelby Township, Michigan, on March 28, 2002.  
This year a total of fourteen FDIC-insured institutions have been
closed.

Headquartered in Northville, Michigan, Main Street Bank --

MARSHALL GROUP: Wants to Hire McEwen Gisvold as Chapter 11 Counsel

The Marshall Group LLC seek authority from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Oregon to employ McEwen Gisvold LLP as
its Chapter 11 counsel.

McEwen Gisvold will:

   a. advise the Debtor of its rights, powers and duties as debtor
      and debtor-in-possession continuing to operate and manage

      Debtor is involved, objections to claims filed against
      debtor in this bankruptcy case, and the compromise or

     all necessary applications, motions, memoranda, responses,

this Chapter 11 case, with the Debtor's knowledge and consent,
McEwen Gisvold applied $74,969 of the retainer in satisfaction of
its prepetition fees and expenses rendered through Sept. 3, 2008.

creditors, it listed both assets and liabilities between $1
million to $100 million.


MAJESTIC STAR: S&P Cuts Rating to 'CCC-' & Keeps Neg. Outlook
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on Las
Vegas, Nevas-based Majestic Star Casino LLC; the corporate credit
rating was lowered to 'CCC-' from 'CCC+'.  The outlook remains
negative.

"The downgrade reflects our heightened concerns around Majestic
Star's liquidity position and our expectation that the company
will breach its covenants, which were amended earlier this year,
in the near term," noted Standard & Poor's credit analyst Ben
Bubeck.  "In fact, given recently reported revenue declines in
excess of 20% at Majestic Star's Indiana properties during the
month of September, it is possible a covenant violation may have
occurred in the September 2008 quarter."

The outlook is negative, reflecting S&P's concerns regarding
Majestic Star's ability to remain in compliance with loan
covenants and to continue servicing its debt obligations, given
existing and anticipated negative trends in operating performance
and the company's extremely limited liquidity position.  In the
absence of an equity infusion to the company and/or asset sales
that meaningfully bolster its liquidity position, S&P believes
that a payment default is likely in the near term.
     
Net revenues and property-level EBITDA at Majestic Star's Indiana
properties represented nearly 70% of both total net revenues and
total property-level EBITDA during the six months ended June 30,
2008.

In addition, beginning on Oct. 15, 2008, cash interest under a
$63.5 million senior unsecured note issued by Majestic Star's
parent company, Majestic HoldCo LLC, will begin to accrue at an
annual rate of 12.5%, with the first payment due on April 15,
2009.  These notes, which were issued to partially finance the
Trump Indiana acquisition in late 2005, are structured to accrue
pay-in-kind interest until Oct. 15, 2008.  Given Majestic Star's
limited liquidity, as well as restrictions on distributions
imposed by the company's debt obligations, the ability to meet
this first cash interest payment is doubtful under the existing
capital structure.

As of June 30, 2008, credit measures were weak, with total debt to
EBITDA of more than 10x and EBITDA coverage of cash interest of
just 1.1x. Including interest on the HoldCo debt, EBITDA interest
coverage was 1x as of June 30, 2008, and has likely fallen below
1x given more recent performance.

The 'CCC-' rating reflects S&P's heightened concern regarding the
company's ability to service its debt obligations over the next
few quarters, its second-tier positions within highly competitive
markets, and limited flexibility to invest in its assets given
weak credit metrics and poor cash flow generation.  Majestic Star
owns and operates the Majestic Star Casino and the adjacent
Majestic Star Casino II, both of which are based in Gary, Indiana.   
The company also owns two Fitzgeralds-branded casinos--one in
Tunica, Mississippi and the other in Black Hawk, Colorado.  

Majestic HoldCo LLC owns 100% of Majestic Star, which is in turn
100% owned by Barden Development Inc.  BDI also owns 100% of the
Fitzgeralds Las Vegas property.  The Fitzgeralds Las Vegas is an
affiliated company rather than a direct subsidiary within the
Majestic Star family of companies, and does not provide credit
support to Majestic Star.  BDI is also a minority owner of
Holdings Gaming Borrower L.P., which is in the process of building
a casino in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Following the acquisition of the Trump Indiana riverboat at the
end of 2005, the Gary, Indiana-based properties have materially
underperformed the overall market.  Despite modest growth in net
revenues in 2007, property-level EBITDA declined nearly 11% at the
two Majestic properties.  During 2008, performance has remained
weak, as net revenues and property-level EBITDA were down 6% and
20%, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2008.  

In addition to weak economic conditions and the impact on consumer
discretionary spending, operating challenges for the company are
also being driven by escalating levels of competition throughout
the Chicagoland market--the most recent being the opening of the
new Horseshoe Hammond barge, which captured substantial market
share over the past two months.  Given Majestic Star's limited
financial flexibility, its ability to invest in its properties to
bolster its competitive position is minimal.

Fitzgeralds Tunica typically contributes roughly 20% to 25% of the
company's total property-level EBITDA.  Tunica has been a
challenging market, offering limited growth prospects due to
intense competition for a number of years.  Property-level EBITDA
was up modestly during the six months ended June 30, 2008.

The Black Hawk property contributes the remaining roughly 5% to
10% of Majestic Star's total property-level EBITDA.  During the
six months ended June 30, 2008, EBITDA declined 47% year over
year, partially due to construction disruption, as the company
recently completed a $35 million expansion project.  Performance
has also been materially affected by a smoking ban, which went
into effect on Jan. 1, 2008.
    
Majestic Star's credit measures as of June 30, 2008 were weak.
Operating lease-adjusted debt leverage, including the senior
unsecured HoldCo notes, was more than 10x.  In addition, EBITDA
coverage of cash interest was just 1.1x.  Including interest on
the HoldCo debt, EBITDA interest coverage was 1x as of June 30,
2008, and has likely fallen below 1x given more recent
performance.  Also, given the previously mentioned competitive
issues, metrics are likely to continue to weaken.


MARIA PARHAM: Fitch Affirms $47.7MM Revenue Bonds Rating at 'BB-'
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the 'BB-' rating on the approximately
$47.7 million North Carolina Medical Care Commission's hospital
revenue bonds (Maria Parham Hospital Project) series 2003.  Fitch
has also revised the Rating Outlook on the outstanding Maria
Parham Hospital Project bonds to Positive from Stable.

The 'BB-' affirmation and Outlook revision are supported by Maria
Parham Healthcare Association, Inc.'s (Maria Parham) significant
strengthening of its balance sheet over the past two fiscal years,
sustained market share, and stable operating performance.  At
fiscal year end Sept. 30, 2007, Maria Parham's liquidity relative
to expenses of 98.1 days cash on hand and cash-to-debt ratio of
36% improved dramatically over FYE Sept 30, 2006 levels of 50.8
days and 18.1%, respectively.  Additionally, for the 11 months
ended Aug. 31, 2008, Maria Parham continues to show improvement
with 111.3 days cash on hand and 41.9% cash-to-debt.

While Maria Parham is showing an operating loss of -1.7% through
the 11-month period ended Aug. 31, 2008, they are expecting to be
closer to break even at FYE and are budgeting a slightly positive
operating margin for fiscal 2009.  Coverage levels have also
improved dramatically since the rate covenant violation in fiscal
2005.  Through the 11 months ended Aug. 31, 2008, maximum annual
debt service coverage by EBITDA was 1.7 times, down from the 2.7x
coverage in fiscal 2007, but up from fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2006
when coverage was 0.1x and 1.3x, respectively.  Additional credit
strengths for Maria Parham are its recently updated patient units,
minimal capital needs, and effective executive leadership.  
Management reported that Maria Parham's primary service area
market share remained stable at 60%.

Primary credit concerns include erratic inpatient volume trends,
high debt burden, a weak payor mix, and poor economic indicators
of the primary service area.  Patient volume has been uneven for
the last few years and year-to-date admissions are below budget
and down when compared to the same period last year.  Maria
Parham's high debt burden is evidenced by a high MADS as a percent
of total revenue of 5% at FYE 2007 and 4.9% through the 11 months
ended Aug. 31, 2008.  Maria Parham's payor mix is indicative of
its service area and limits operating profitability.  Medicaid
reimbursements accounted for 17% of gross revenues in both fiscal
2007 and through the eleven months ended Aug. 31, 2008.

Moreover, unemployment rates in Maria Parham's primary service
area, which consists of Vance and Warren counties, continue to
remain high at 9.4% and 9.1%, respectively, as estimated by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics for July 2008.  This is compared to the
state of North Carolina's unemployment rate of approximately 6.9%
for the same period.

Maria Parham Healthcare Association serves as the parent
corporation and controls operations at the only other member of
the obligated group, Maria Parham Medical Center.  Maria Parham
Medical Center is a 102-licensed bed acute care hospital located
in Henderson, North Carolina, approximately 45 miles north of
Raleigh.  Total annual revenue for the consolidated organization
equaled approximately $82 million in fiscal 2007.  

Maria Parham covenants to disclose both annual and quarterly
financial information to the Nationally Recognized Municipal
Securities Information Repositories.  Maria Parham discloses
annual and quarterly information to the NRMSIRS through Digital
Assurance Certification, LLC.  Disclosure to date has been
thorough and timely and has included balance sheet, income
statement, cash flows, and utilization data, but no management
discussion and analysis.


MARK II: Bankruptcy Case Converted to Chapter 7; Closes 2 Outlets
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Mark II Family Restaurants has closed its two remaining
restaurants, Nicholas Sohr of The Citizens Voice (Wilkes-Barre,
Pa.) reported Wednesday.

Based in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., Mark II Family Resataurants Inc. filed
for Chapter 11 relief on Oct. 4, 2007 (Bankr. M.D. Pa. Case No.
07-52593).  Thomas J. MacNeely, Esq., at Rosenn, Jenkins and
Greenwald, LLP, represented the Debtor as counsel.  When the
company filed for protection from its creditors, it listed assets
of $1 million to $100 million, and debts of less than $10,000.

According to Citizens Voice, the company's Chapter 11 case was
converted to a Chapter 7 liquidation on Sept. 10, 2008.  The
company closed the Wilkes-Barre Township and Dallas Restaurancts
on Sept. 28.


MATRIX DEVELOPMENT: Court Extends Exclusive Period Through Mar. 30
------------------------------------------------------------------
Erik Larson of Bloomberg News reports that the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Oregon extended through Mar. 30, 2009,
the exclusive period for Matrix Development Corp. to file its plan
of reorganization.  The Court also set June 30, 2009, as the
deadline for the Debtor to seek approval of its plan from
creditors, according to the report.

The Court issued the order on Oct. 7, 2008, the report says.  The
extension was awarded over objections from creditor M&T Bank
Corp., according to the report, which argued that the Debtor would
create a plan more effectively if a "small amount of pressure"
were applied.  The bank is seeking $29 million, according to the
report.

The Debtor also asked the Court to reject a request by M&T for
permission to foreclose on a 42-lot subdivision valued by the
lender at $4.71 million, according to the report.  M&T says only
$11 million of the total amount it's seeking is secured by
collateral, according to the report.

MERIDIAN BANK: National Bank Takes All Deposits, FDIC as Receiver
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Meridian Bank of Eldred, Illinois, was closed by the Illinois
Department of Financial Professional Regulation-Division of
Banking, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was
named receiver.  To protect the depositors, the FDIC approved the
assumption of all the deposits of Meridian Bank by National Bank,
Hillsboro, Illinois.

All depositors of Meridian Bank, including any with deposits in
excess of the FDIC's insurance limits, will automatically become
depositors of National Bank, and they will continue to have
uninterrupted access to their money.  Depositors will still be
insured with the new institution. Therefore, there is no need for
customers to change their banking relationship to retain deposit
insurance.

The failed bank's four offices in Altamont, Carlyle, and Eldred
reopened for normal hours on Saturday, October 11; and the Alton
office will reopen Tuesday, October 14, as branches of National
Bank.  Over the weekend, customers of Meridian Bank can access
their money by writing checks or using ATM or debit cards.  Checks
drawn on the bank will continue to be processed.  Loan customers
should continue to make their payments as usual.

Meridian Bank had total assets of $39.18 million in total assets
and $36.88 million in total deposits as of September 25, 2008.  
National Bank will purchase approximately $7.55 million of
Meridian's assets, and did not pay the FDIC a premium for the
right to assume all of the failed bank's deposits.  The FDIC will
retain the remaining assets for later disposition.

The FDIC estimates that the cost to its Deposit Insurance Fund
will be between $13 million and $14.5 million.  National Banks'
acquisition of all deposits was the "least costly" resolution for
the FDIC's Deposit Insurance Fund compared to all alternatives.

Meridian Bank is the first bank to be closed in Illinois since
Universal FSB, Chicago, Illinois on June 27, 2002.  This year a
total of fifteen FDIC-insured institutions have been closed.

Headquartered in Eldred, Illinois, Meridian Bank --

MICROMET INC: Inks Securities Purchase Agreement with Investors
---------------------------------------------------------------
Micromet, Inc. disclosed in a Securities and Exchange Commission
filing that on Sept. 29, 2008, it entered into a securities
purchase agreement with various institutional and individual
accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell
and issue an aggregate of 9,411,948 shares of its common stock and
warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,823,584 shares of
common stock.

The per unit purchase price of a Share and a Warrant to purchase
0.3 shares of common stock is $4.25.  The Warrants are exercisable
at $4.63 per share until the five-year anniversary of the Initial
Exercise Date. The Shares and the Warrants were issued on Oct. 2,
2008.  The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $40.3
million, before offering expenses. Among the investors were three
directors of the Company in their individual capacities and two
funds affiliated with a director of the company.  The Shares and
Warrants were issued in a private placement pursuant to the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and thus have not been and are
not being registered under the Securities Act.  The Company has
agreed to pay a placement fee to be split between Piper Jaffray &
Company and RBC Capital Markets.

In connection with the private placement, the Company entered into
a registration rights agreement, dated Sept. 29, 2008 pursuant to
which, the Company has agreed to register for resale under the
Securities Act both the Shares and the Warrant Shares.

Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company
is required to file a registration statement with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on or before Nov. 3, 2008.  The Company
also agreed to other customary obligations regarding registration,
including matters relating to indemnification, maintenance of the
registration statement and payment of expenses.

The Company may be liable for liquidated damages to holders of the
Shares and Warrant Shares:

   -- if the registration statement is not filed on or before
      Nov. 3, 2008; or

   -- if the registration statement is not declared effective
by         
      Dec. 31, 2008, if it does not become subject to review by
      the SEC, or Jan. 30, 2009, if it becomes subject to review
      by the SEC.

The amount of the liquidated damages is, in aggregate, 1% per
month, subject to an aggregate cap of 6%, and in certain instances
12%, of the aggregate purchase price of the securities.

                       Going Concern Doubt

The company disclosed in its Form 10-Q for the second quarter of
2008, that as of June 30, 2008, it had an accumulated deficit of
$179.4 million, and that it expects to continue to incur
substantial, and possibly increasing, operating losses for the
next several years.  These conditions create substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The company is continuing its efforts in research and development,
preclinical studies and clinical trials of its product candidates.
These efforts, and obtaining requisite regulatory approval prior
to commercialization, will require substantial expenditures.  Once
requisite regulatory approval has been obtained, substantial
additional financing will be required to manufacture, market and
distribute its products in order to achieve a level of revenues
adequate to support its cost structure.  

Management believes it has sufficient resources to fund its
required expenditures into the second quarter of 2009, without
considering any potential milestone payments that it may receive
under current or future collaborations, or any future capital
raising transactions or drawdowns from the committed equity
financing facility (CEFF) with Kingsbridge Capital Limited.  

At June 30, 2008, the company's consolidated balance sheet showed
$48.3 million in total assets, $36.3 million in total liabilities,
and $12.0 million in total stockholders' equity.

Don Clark at The Wall Street Journal reports that Micron's CEO,
Steve Appleton, estimated Micron's work force at 19,000 people.  
The 15% reduction would affect about 2,850 workers, WSJ states.  

The majority of the workforce reductions, which will begin with a
voluntary program, will occur in Boise as a result of the NAND
operation shutdown.  Micron is committed to assisting employees
affected by the workforce reductions and is providing severance
and outplacement services.

WSJ says that the layoffs is due to declining demand and
oversupply of its NAND flash memory chips.

In response to a challenging global environment for technology
products, Micron Technology disclosed a restructuring of its
memory operations.  The combination of declining customer demand
and product oversupply in the marketplace has driven selling
prices for NAND flash memory significantly below manufacturing
costs, particularly for 200 millimeter (mm) manufacturing lines.  
As a result, IM Flash Technologies, a joint venture between Micron
and Intel Corporation, will discontinue the supply of NAND flash
memory from Micron's Boise facility.  The NAND operation shutdown
will reduce IMFT's NAND flash production by 35,000 wafers (200mm)
per month.

Micron's Chairperson and CEO Steve Appleton said, "Micron is in a
strong position relative to our competitors, as evidenced by our
balance sheet and cash flow, but we are not immune to the
difficult global market conditions that are affecting us all.  
Operation shutdowns and related workforce reductions are always
painful, but we are pursuing these actions to maintain the
competitiveness of the company."

Cash restructuring and other related expenses are anticipated to
be approximately $60 million, and the next year's cash operating
margin benefit is expected to exceed $175 million.

MORGAN STANLEY: In Talks With Mitsubishi on $9BB Investment
-----------------------------------------------------------
Aaron Lucchetti, Matthew Karnitschnig, and Jon Hilsenrath at The
Wall Street Journal report that people familiar with the matter
said that Morgan Stanley is renegotiating with Mitsubishi UFJ
Financial Group Inc. on a $9 billion investment agreement.

WSJ relates that under the agreement, Morgan Stanley will sell a
21% stake to Mitsubishi for $9 billion.  The report says that
Mitsubishi has been under pressure to change the terms of the
deal, as its original investment for 21% of Morgan Stanley was
agreed to before Morgan Stanley shares declined more than 50%.  
According to the report, Morgan Stanley's market value was
$10.3 billion on Friday, slightly above the amount Mitsubishi had
agreed to pay for a stake in the company.

A source said that the U.S. government is involved with the
negotiations but isn't planning a direct investment alongside
Mitsubishi, WSJ relates.  The government, says the report, would
support the deal and work to structure any potential future
investment in Morgan Stanley, while trying not to wipe out
Mitsubishi's investment.

Citing people familiar with the matter, Andrew Ross Sorkin at The
New York Times reports that federal officials assured Mitsubishi
on Sunday that its planned investment in Morgan Stanley would be
protected.  The report says that Treasury officials urged a
hesitant Mitsubishi to proceed with its agreement with Morgan
Stanley, which has sought the capital infusion to reassure
investors and clients about its stability.

According to WSJ, Morgan Stanley would disclose a renewed
commitment on the stake sale.  WSJ reports that possible changes
in the agreement include:

     -- Mitsubishi and Morgan Stanley increasing the
        dividend Mitsubishi gets on its preferred shares in the
        deal, while reducing the amount of common shares it
        would get; and

     -- the conversion price for the convertible shares.

WSJ relates that under terms of the deal being discussed,
Mitsubishi would get from Morgan Stanley preferred shares --
some convertible into common shares at one price and the rest
convertible at a second price or remaining preferred shares.  A
source said that the conversion prices are being discussed but
could come down to $20 from $31, WSJ states.

WSJ reports that Morgan Stanley and Mitsubishi will try to
finalize their deal by Tuesday.

Mitsubishi said in a statement, "We have been made aware of rumors
to the effect that MUFG is seeking not to close on our proposed
investment in, and strategic alliance with, Morgan Stanley
(NYSE:MS).  Our normal policy is not to comment on rumors.  
Nevertheless, we wish to state that there is no basis for any such
rumors. The Federal Reserve approved the transaction on Oct. 6,
2008, subject to a mandatory five day waiting period prior to
closing.  We expect that the closing of the transaction will occur
on the first banking day in New York and Tokyo after the end of
that waiting period, which is Tuesday, Oct. MUFG is looking
forward to completing the transaction and realizing the benefits
of our strategic alliance."

MOVIE GALLERY: Completes Debt to Equity Conversion
--------------------------------------------------
Movie Gallery Chief Executive Officer and President, C. J.

of Sopris Capital Partners, LP, Sopris DP-Series A of Sopris DP,
L.P., DQ Ltd., RR Investment Company Ltd., EnterAspen Limited,
The Richmond Fund LP, and Rovida Holdings Limited.

Each of the Converting Lenders is a holder of Term Loans under

dated as of March 8, 2007, as amended and restated as of May 20,
2008, among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, as
guarantors, a host of lenders, Wilmington Trust Company, as
Administrative Agent, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas,
as Collateral Agent.

Under the Conversion Agreements, the Converting Lenders assigned
Term Loans, including accrued and unpaid interest, under the
First Lien Agreement to the Company in the aggregate principal
amount of approximately $151.4 million, in exchange for
approximately 15.2 million shares of Movie Gallery Common Stock,
par value $0.001 per share, at a price of $10.00 per share, Mr.

Prior to giving effect to the transactions, Sopris Partners,
Sopris DP, EnterAspen and Richmond owned a majority of the

notified Wilmington Trust of the assignments of the Assigned

In connection with the conversion, the Company's independent
Audit Committee, with the assistance of outside counsel and a
third-party advisory firm, evaluated the fairness of the
conversion price from a financial point of view, Mr. Gabriel
noted.

"This debt restructuring significantly improves our balance sheet
and reduces our ongoing interest expense," says Mr. Gabriel.

"We are pleased to have Sopris as a financial partner and we
appreciate the cooperation and support of the participating first
lien debt holders," he adds.

PETTERS AVIATION: Can Pay $886,000 in Wages, Related Fees
---------------------------------------------------------
Erik Larson of Bloomberg News reports that the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Minnesota on Oct. 8, 2008, approved the
request of Petters Aviation, LLC, and its debtor-affiliates to pay
more than $886,000 in wages and worker-related fees.

Also, the Debtors' founder Tom Petters is being held without bail
after being accused by federal prosecutors of masterminding a more
than $2 billion fraud.  A federal magistrate judge in St. Paul,
Minnesota, denied bail for Mr. Petters, saying he "is facing the
substantial risk of a very, very long prison sentence, perhaps the
rest of his life" and is a flight risk.

Troubled Company Reporter said on Oct. 7 that Stan Gadek, chairman
and chief executive officer of affiliate MN Airlines, LLC, said
that the Debtors are in bankruptcy because of the $2 billion fraud
probe launched by the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigations
against the parent Petters that involved a Sept. 24 raid of the
Lead Debtor by the bureau.

PETTERS GROUP: Judge Appoints D. Kelley as Petters Group Receiver
-----------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. District Judge Ann Montgomery has appointed Minneapolis
attorney Doug Kelley as receiver for Petters Group Worldwide LLC,
Petters Co. Inc. and other companies.  The order does not include
Sun Country Airlines, which filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition
on Oct. 5, 2008, David Phelps of the Star Tribune (Minneapolis-St.
Paul) reported Tuesday.

Tom Petters, former CEO of Petters Group, in now in federal
custody on charges of mail and wire fraud, money laundering and
obstruction of justice.  

Judge Montgomery gave the order after the U.S. attorney's office,  
sought a temporary restraining order and a permanent injunction
against Tom Petters and four of his associates who have been
likewise charged.

The Star Tribune says that Judge Montgomery wrote in an order,
"Weighing the equities and considering the United States'
likelihood of success in its cause of action, this Temporary
Restraining Order is in the public interest."  

According to the report, to support their request, government
attorneys presented evidence showing that large payments were made
to individuals from Petters Co. Inc., and that these payments were
the proceeds of the alleged fraudulent scheme.

Mr. Kelley is a former federal prosecutor.  He will lead the new
management for the Petters Group entities which include include
Polaroid, Petters Warehouse Direct and a number of smaller
companies.

According to the Star Tribune, Petters Group Worldwide said in a
statement last week, "The appointment of Doug Kelley will allow
Petters Group and its entities to move forward in an orderly
method as he works with them to make business decisions in order
to preserve their assets."

Judge Montgomery's order "trump an order Friday by a state judge
in Cook County, Ill., who had appointed a New Jersey businessman
as a receiver," the Star Tribune says.

RADICAL BUNNY: Investors Files Chapter 7 Involuntary Petition
-------------------------------------------------------------
The Arizona Republic's Andrew Johnson reports that three investors
-- Cathy Baker of Chandler; Laing Kandel of Brooklyn, New York;
and Steven Friedberg -- filed an involuntary petition under
Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code against Radical Bunny LLC in the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona.

The Chapter 7 petitioners asserted as much as $2 million in claims
in the aggregate, Mr. Johnson said.

According to Mr. Johnson, Radical Bunny was the focus of
regulatory investigations by, among other things, the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission over alleged violation
of federal or state securities laws, since Mortgages Ltd. was
forced into its own bankruptcy in June by a certain real-estate
developer.  The Court converted Mortgages' Chapter 7 liquidation
into a Chapter 11 reorganization, as reported in the Troubled
Company Reporter on June 25, 2008.

In Mortgages' Chapter 11 filing, Radical Bunny asserted up to
$197,232,758 in notes payables.

Mortgages loaned roughly $200 million in financing from Radical
Bunny, and used the money -- along with funds raised from its own
investors who are clients of Radical Bunny's main principal Tom
Hirsch, a certified public accountant in Phoenix, Arizona -- to
finance up to $925 million in construction projects and land
acquisitions, Mr Johnson relates.  Radical Bunny charged Mortgages
13% interest on the loans and, in turn, its investors will get 11%
while the rest will be retained by its managers, He continued.

"We simply want some court oversight over Radical Bunny and its
assets," Arizona Republic quotes the petitioners' counsel, Carlos
Arboleda as saying.  "There's been a lack of information and a
lack of clarity coming from Tom Hirsch and his associates."  The
report notes Radical Bunny failed to provide accurate information
about the nature of their investments to its investors.

Investors had not received dividends since June, the report notes.

The report says Shelton Freeman, an attorney representing
Radical Bunny in Mortgages', asserted that the investors are not
legitimate creditors and its involuntary filing is not filed in
good faith.

Based in Phoenix, Arizona, Radical Bunny LLC is a real-estate
financier.  On the Web: http://radicalbunny.com/


REDMOND 74: Section 341(a) Meeting Scheduled for October 15
-----------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Trustee for Region 18 will convene a meeting of Redmond
74, Inc.'s creditors on Oct. 15, 2008, at 1:30 p.m., at the U.S.
Courthouse, Room 4107.

This is the first meeting of creditors required under Section
341(a) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in all bankruptcy cases.

All creditors are invited, but not required, to attend.  This
Meeting of Creditors offers the one opportunity in a bankruptcy
proceeding for creditors to question a responsible office of the
Debtor under oath about the company's financial affairs and
operations that would be of interest to the general body of
creditors.

Mercer Island, Washington-based Redmond 74, Inc., and its
affiliate, Little Boat North, Inc., filed for Chapter 11
protection on Sept. 10, 2008 (Bankr. W. D. D.C. Case No. 08-
15826).  Armand J. Kornfeld, Esq., at Bush Strout & Kornfeld
assists the company in its restructuring effort.  The company
listed assets of $10 million to $50 million and debts of  $10
million to $50 million when it filed for bankruptcy.


SCIENS CFO: Fitch Keeps EUR7.8MM Class E 'BB+' Rating on WatchNeg
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded six tranches from five hedge fund
collateralized fund obligations.  All 22 tranches remain on Rating
Watch Negative.  

These rating actions follow Fitch's reassessment of the macro
risks that affect its analysis of HF CFOs - notably higher
observed market volatility, reduced liquidity, and limited
transparency in underlying hedge funds.  Accordingly, Fitch is no
longer of the opinion that HF CFOs have risk characteristics that
are consistent with an 'AAA' rating.

As mentioned in the press release 'Fitch Places 22 Tranches from 5
Hedge Fund CFOs on Rating Watch Negative', published Sept. 25,
2008, the Negative Watch designations are primarily the result of
the application of Fitch's revised market value structures
criteria, published April 18, 2008.  The current rating actions
have been taken in conjunction with Fitch's broad review of the
hedge fund CFO sector, which is still ongoing.  While further
refinement and individual transaction analysis remains to be done,
Fitch decided that at this point, the highest rated classes were
not at a level that accurately represented Fitch's credit view and
therefore needed to be downgraded.

Fitch is currently reassessing its prior model-based approach for
analyzing HF CFOs, given the recent market environment. Fitch is
also requesting that additional detailed information be provided
on an ongoing basis from managers.  Where managers are unable or
unwilling to provide this additional information, Fitch may be
forced to withdraw its ratings.  Fitch expects to finalize its
review of these transactions by the end of the year.

The current HF CFO ratings are:

Man Glenwood Alternative Strategies II Ltd.

  -- $250,000,000 class A downgrade to 'AA' from 'AAA', remains on
     Rating Watch Negative;

  -- $40,000,000 class B 'AA', remains on Rating Watch Negative;

SOUNDVIEW HOME: S&P Lowers M-9 Certificates' Rating to Default
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on six
classes of asset-backed certificates from Soundview Home Loan
Trust 2005-B.  S&P lowered one of these ratings to 'D' from 'CC'.  
At the same time, S&P affirmed its ratings on three classes from
this series.

The lowered ratings reflect adverse collateral performance that
has caused monthly losses to exceed monthly excess interest.  As
of the September 2008 remittance period, cumulative losses, as a
percentage of the original pool balance, was 17.58%.  Total
delinquencies for this transaction were 25.26% of the current pool
balance.  The deal is 35 months seasoned.  

The lifetime expected losses for this transaction is 24.37% of the
original pool balance.  These rating actions follow S&P's analysis
of available credit enhancement for each rated tranche compared
with the lifetime projected losses on the collateral.  S&P based
its analysis on each bond's ability to withstand the projected
losses over its remaining lifetime.  Based on the current
collateral performance of these transactions, S&P projects that
future credit enhancement percentages will be insufficient to
maintain the ratings at their previous levels.

Subordination and excess spread provide credit support since
overcollateralization is $0.  The collateral for these
transactions consists of 30-year, fixed-rate, closed-end second-
lien mortgage loans secured by residential properties.

TARRAGON CORP: Receives Default Notice from National City Bank
--------------------------------------------------------------
Tarragon Corporation disclosed in a Securities and Exchange
Commission filing that on Sept. 29, 2008, it received a notice of
default and acceleration from National City Bank related to three
loans totaling approximately $42.9 million in aggregate principal
amount outstanding, made to its wholly owned subsidiaries and
guaranteed by the Company.  

The loans are secured by real estate and are cross-collateralized.  
The notice states that one of the loans, in the principal amount
of $5.6 million, was not paid at maturity in July 2008, that such
failure constituted an event of default and that, as a result,
National City was accelerating all of the outstanding indebtedness
under the three notes, including accrued and unpaid interest of
approximately $0.3 million.

The Company is currently in discussions with National City with
respect to the loans.  However, there can be no assurance as to
the outcome of any such discussions.  

Defaults under the National City loans may constitute a cross-
default or event of default under certain of its other loan
agreements, indentures, mortgages and other evidences of
indebtedness, and the lenders that are parties thereto may elect
to exercise their rights and remedies thereunder.  There can be no
assurance as to the outcome of any such lender action.

UNI-MARTS: Landlord Limited to $2.2MM Drawdown on Letter of Credit
------------------------------------------------------------------
Bill Rochelle of Bloomberg News reports that the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Delaware temporarily stopped National
Retail Property, LP, a landlord of Uni-Marts, LLC, and its debtor-
affiliates, from drawing down more than $2.2 million on a
$6.2 million letter of credit, the most that could be paid in view
of the three-year limit on damages.  The letter was given to
National Retail pre-bankruptcy as security for the recovery of
damages if there were a breach.

The Court has scheduled another hearing on Oct. 15, 2008, to
consider extending the prohibition, according to the report.

Landlords or their lawyers generally know that bankruptcy
law limits damages from breach of a real estate lease to three
years' rent or less.  Some might not know that securing the lease
with a letter of credit may not avoid the three-year limitation
on damages.

                        About Uni-Marts

consumer goods.  The company and six of its affiliates filed for
Chapter 11 protection on May 29, 2008 (Bankr. D. Del. Lead Case

counsel in these cases.

Moody's upgraded Classes B and C due to increased defeasance and
credit enhancement.

As of the September 15, 2008 distribution date, the transaction's
aggregate certificate balance has decreased by approximately 5.5%
to $984.4 million from $1.04 billion at securitization.  The
Certificates are collateralized by 54 mortgage loans ranging in
size from less than 1.0% to 11.9% of the pool, with the top 10
loans representing 46.4% of the pool.  The pool includes four
loans, representing 29.0% of the pool, with investment grade
underlying ratings.  The performance of the Bay City Mall
($24.3 million -- 2.5%) has declined since securitization and it
no longer has an investment grade underlying rating.  Twenty-one
loans, representing 17.2% of the pool balance, have defeased and
are collateralized by U.S. Government securities.

There have been no realized losses to date and currently there are
no loans in special servicing.  Three loans, representing 2.5% of
the pool, are on the master servicer's watchlist.

Moody's was provided with year-end 2007 operating results for
93.2% of the pool. Moody's loan to value ratio for the conduit
component is 92.4% compared to 92.1% at Moody's prior full review
in November 2006 and 96.2% at securitization.

The largest loan with an underlying rating is the Brass Mill
Center & Commons Loan ($116.7 million -- 11.9%), which is secured
by the borrower's interest in a 1.2 million square foot regional
mall and adjacent 197,000 square foot community center.  The
properties are located approximately 28 miles southwest of
Hartford in Waterbury, Connecticut.  The mall is anchored by
Sears, Macy's, J.C. Penney and Burlington Coat Factory.  The in-
line mall stores were 91.3% occupied as of March 2008 compared to
95.1% at last review.  The loan has a 25-year amortization
schedule and has amortized 10.2% since securitization.  The loan
sponsors are General Growth Properties Inc. and the New York State
Common Retirement Fund.  Moody's current underlying rating is
Baa3, the same as at last review.

The second loan with an underlying rating is the Four Seasons Town
Center Mall Loan ($89.2 million - 9.1%), which is secured by the
borrower's interest in a 1.1 million square foot regional mall
located in Greensboro, North Carolina.  The center is anchored by
Dillard's, J.C. Penney and Belk.  The in-line stores were 86.1%
occupied as of March 2008 compared to 90.0% at last review.  The
decline in the mall's performance since last review has been
offset by amortization.  The loan has amortized 8.8% since
securitization.  The loan sponsor is General Growth Properties
Inc. Moody's current underlying rating is A3, the same as last
review.

The third shadow rated loan is the Starrett-Lehigh Building Loan
($57.3 million - 5.8%), which is a pari-passu interest in a
$175.8 million first mortgage loan.  The loan is secured by a 2.3
million square foot Class B/C office building located in the Penn
Station submarket of New York City.  The property was 93.0%
occupied as of May 2008 compared to 88.0% at last review and 74.3%
at securitization.  No tenant occupies more than 3.3% of the
premises. Performance has improved since securitization due to
increased revenues and amortization.  The loan has amortized 4.6%
since securitization. Moody's current underlying rating is Aa2
compared to Aa3 at last review.

The remaining two loans with underlying ratings comprise 4.1% of
the pool.  The Home Depot Loan ($21.6 million - 2.2%) is secured
by a 100,000 square foot single tenant retail building located in
Colma, California.  Moody's current underlying rating is A1, the
same as last review.  The University Mall Loan ($18.7 million -
1.9%) is secured by the borrower's interest in a 593,000 square
foot retail property located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.  Moody's
current underlying rating is Aa3, the same as last review.

The top three conduit loans represent 16.2% of the outstanding
pool balance.  The largest conduit loan is the Bank of America
Tower Loan ($72.9 million -- 7.4%), which is secured by a 661,000
square foot Class A office building and an adjacent 36,000 square
foot annex building located in downtown Jacksonville, Florida.  
The property was 87.2% occupied as of March 2008 compared to 86.1%
at last review.  The property is anchored by Bank of America
Corporation, which leases 27.0% of the premises through September
2009.  Moody's LTV is 91.0%, essentially the same as at last
review.

The second largest conduit loan is the Westland Mall Loan
($57.5 million - 5.8%), which is secured by the borrower's
interest in a 835,000 square foot regional mall located
approximately five miles north of the Miami International Airport
in Hialeah, Florida.  The center is anchored by Burdines, Sears
and J.C. Penney.  The in-line stores were 94.8% occupied as of
December 2007 compared to 98.2% at last review.  Moody's LTV is
81.4% compared to 88.4% at last review.

The third largest conduit loan is the Amargosa Commons Shopping
Center ($28.8 million -- 2.9%), which is secured by a power center
located in Palmdale, California.  The property was 100.0% occupied
as of March 2008 compared to 96.1% at securitization.  The largest
tenants include Circuit City, Bed Bath & Beyond and T.J. Maxx.  
Moody's LTV is 104.1% compared to 105.6% at last review.

Moody's periodically completes full reviews in addition to
monitoring transactions on a monthly basis.  Moody's prior full
review is summarized in a press release dated December 14, 2006.

Moody's has published rating methodologies outlining its
analytical approach to surveillance and its approach to rating
conduit and fusion transactions.  In addition, Moody's has
published numerous articles outlining its ratings approach to the
various property types customarily deposited within these
transactions along with other articles on credit issues unique to
CMBS.  The major rating methodologies employed in analyzing this
transaction include:

CMBS: Moody's Approach to Surveillance, September 30, 2002 -- this
paper provides an overview of Moody's surveillance philosophy, an
indication of what prompts a conduit review, how conduit and large
loan monitoring is performed, and what its objectives are with
respect to post-closing requests and servicer reviews;

WACHOVIA BANK: Moody's Trims $41.218MM Cert. Rating to B3 from Ba2
------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Investors Service downgraded the ratings of five classes
of Wachovia Bank Commercial Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage
Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-C20 and placed seven
classes on review for possible downgrade as:

  -- Class B, $77,856,000, currently rated Aa2, on review for
     possible downgrade

  -- Class C, $27,479,000, currently rated Aa3, on review for
     possible downgrade

  -- Class D, $68,697,000, downgraded to A3 from A2, on review for
     possible downgrade

  -- Class E, $41,218,000, downgraded to Baa1 from A3, on review
     for possible downgrade

  -- Class F, $41,218,000, downgraded to Baa3 from Baa2, on review
     for possible downgrade

  -- Class G, $32,059,000, downgraded to Ba2 from Baa3, on review
     for possible downgrade

  -- Class H, $41,218,000, downgraded to B3 from Ba2, on review
     for possible downgrade

Moody's downgraded Classes D, E, F, G and H and placed Classes B,
C, D, E, F, G and H on review for possible downgrade due to
expected losses associated with the specially serviced Macon &
Burlington Mall Pool Loan.

The Macon & Burlington Mall Pool Loan ($137.6 million - 4.1%) is
secured by the borrower's interest in two regional malls
containing a total of 1.8 million square feet located in Macon,
Georgia and Burlington, North Carolina.  Both malls have been
impacted by new competition and increased vacancies in both anchor
and in-line space.

The Macon Mall ($107.6 million) is a 1.4 million square foot mall
anchored by Sears, Dillard's, Belk, J.C. Penney and Macy's. None
of the anchors are owned by the borrower.  A fifth anchor,
Parisian, vacated in 2007. As of September 2008, the in-line shops
were approximately 71.6% occupied compared to 84.7% in May 2008.   
Many of the in-line tenants are paying reduced or percentage rent
because of co-tenancy clauses which have been triggered by the
property's high vacancy.  Dillard's has opened a store in a
recently completed lifestyle center located approximately 16 miles
from Macon Mall and Belk has also announced plans to open a store
at the same center.  Net operating income for calendar year 2008
is estimated at approximately $6.0 million compared to
$12.3 million at securitization.

The Burlington Mall ($30.0 million) is a 400,000 square foot mall
anchored by Sears. Belk and J.C. Penney vacated in 2007. As of
September 2008 the in-line shops were 55.8% occupied compared to
63.2% in May 2008.  Many of the in-line tenants are paying reduced
rent or percentage rent.  NOI for calendar year 2008 is estimated
at approximately $500,000 compared to $3.4 million at
securitization.

The Macon & Burlington Mall Pool Loan was transferred to special
servicing in March 2008.  Appraisals were completed for both
properties in March 2008 for an aggregate combined value of
$64.5 million.  An $80.0 million appraisal reduction was
recognized in July 2008.  Moody's is currently projecting an
$84.8 million loss for this loan but is concerned that the loss
could be greater if the performance of the malls continues to
decline.

Moody's periodically completes full reviews in addition to
monitoring transactions on a monthly basis.  Moody's prior full
review is summarized in a press release dated April 7, 2008.   
Moody's placed Classes D, E, F and G on review for possible
downgrade on July 24, 2008 because of increased anticipated losses
for the Burlington and Macon Pool Loan.

Moody's has published rating methodologies outlining its
analytical approach to surveillance and its approach to rating
conduit and fusion transactions.  In addition, Moody's has
published numerous articles outlining its ratings approach to the
various property types customarily deposited within these
transactions along with other articles on credit issues unique to
CMBS.  The major rating methodologies employed in analyzing this
transaction include:

CMBS: Moody's Approach to Surveillance, September 30, 2002 -- this
paper provides an overview of Moody's surveillance philosophy, an
indication of what prompts a conduit review, how conduit and large
loan monitoring is performed, and what its objectives are with
respect to post-closing requests and servicer reviews; and

WACHOVIA CORP: Merger With Wells Fargo Proceeds, Citi Walks Out
---------------------------------------------------------------
Wells Fargo & Co. and Citigroup, Inc., have terminated discussions
concerning a possible sale of certain banking assets of Wachovia
Corporation.  Citigroup said that it didn't reach any agreement
with Wells Fargo due to the differences in the parties'
transaction structures and their views of the risks involved.

Citigroup said, "We are proud to have been part of an historic
transaction that was supported by all of the federal banking
agencies and the Secretary of the Treasury, after consultation
with the President, and that we carefully designed to avoid
systemic stress and to advance the interests of our shareholders."

Wells Fargo reaffirmed that it is proceeding with its merger with
Wachovia as a whole company transaction with all of Wachovia's
banking and other operations, requiring no financial assistance
from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
government agency.

Wells Fargo has submitted its application to the Federal Reserve
Board seeking expedited approval of the merger and the share
exchange agreement previously entered into between Wachovia and
Wells Fargo.  Under the share exchange agreement, Wachovia is
issuing Wells Fargo preferred stock that votes as a single class
with Wachovia's common stock representing 39.9% of Wachovia's
voting power.  The acquisition of the non-banking related
operations of Wachovia and the share exchange agreement have
received early termination from the Federal Trade Commission,
under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act.

Under the definitive agreement between the two companies, Wells
Fargo will acquire all outstanding shares of common stock of
Wachovia in a stock-for-stock transaction.  In the transaction,
Wells Fargo will acquire all of Wachovia Corporation and all its
businesses and obligations, including its preferred equity and
indebtedness, and all its banking deposits.

Wells Fargo Chairperson Dick Kovacevich said the merger is "simply
an incredible fit that will result in an immensely strong, stable
financial services company that will carry on Wachovia's proud
tradition of being one of the very best financial institutions in
the world.  We're combining the industry's number one ranking
customer service culture of Wachovia with the industry's number
one sales and cross-selling culture of Wells Fargo.  The best in
service and the best in sales, an unbeatable combination.  We also
bring to this merger our 157 years of experience in financial
services and the unparalleled convenience we can offer Wachovia
customers through one of the most extensive financial services
distributions systems in North America.  We have the highest
regard for the quality and commitment and caring of Wachovia team
members.  We believe their demonstrated commitment to outstanding
customer service and their highest standards of community
leadership are identical to our own values."

Mr. Kovacevich reiterated that the two companies have a firm,
binding merger agreement, are confident the merger will be
completed, that it will keep Wachovia intact and create
significant value for Wachovia and Wells Fargo shareholders.  
Wells Fargo will record Wachovia's credit-impaired assets at fair
value.  "Credit teams at Wells Fargo have had an opportunity to
work with their counterparts at Wachovia," said Mr. Kovacevich.  
"Much of Wachovia's portfolio involves businesses where Wells
Fargo has a significant market presence, operating history and
expertise.  We have had experience with such businesses through a
variety of credit cycles.  Given our broad based operating
expertise, and specific understanding of these individual
businesses we believe we have adequately evaluated the risks
inherent in the portfolios as of the time of this merger
agreement."

The combined company will have $1.42 trillion in assets,
$787 billion in deposits, 48 million customers, $258 billion
assets under management in mutual funds, 10,761 stores, 12,227
ATMs and 280,000 team members.  The merger will create the
nation's premier coast-to-coast community banking presence with
community banks in 39 states and the District of Columbia.  
Wachovia will add these banking stores, ATMs and deposits to the
combined company:

                                              Deposits
                  Banking Stores      ATMs   (Billions)
                  --------------      ----   ----------
    Alabama            141            178          $8.8

Sara Lepro at The Associated Press relates that Wells Fargo said
it expects the deal to be completed by the end of the fourth
quarter.  The Federal Reserve said in a statement that it would
immediately start considering Wells Fargo's request to acquire
Wachovia.

Citigroup's transaction, which it remains willing to complete,
protected Wachovia's holding company debt and its subsidiary
banks, while limiting the risk to Citigroup and generating value
for its shareholders.  The transaction also preserved substantial
value for Wachovia's shareholders and other holding company
stakeholders without exposing Citigroup to Wachovia holding
company liabilities it declined to assume.  Finally, Citigroup
agreed to pay $12 billion to the FDIC, and to incur up to $42
billion of losses, in exchange for the contingent loss protection
the FDIC agreed to provide.

The AP states that Citigroup said it will seek $60 billion in
damages for breach of contract, but has decided not to challenge
the Wells Fargo-Wachovia deal in court.

As reported by the Troubled Company Reporter on Oct. 6, Wachovia
Bank N.A., as trustee, has announced that it would close the
Commonfund Short Term Fund.  According to Standard & Poor's, there
are 1,007 educational institutions with investments in the fund,
composed of approximately 900 colleges and universities and 100
private, independent schools.  On Sept. 29, 2008, Wachovia limited
liquidity to 10% of each participant investor's account value, and
announced that the remaining 90% of the fund would be available to
investors over the near term as securities in the portfolio mature
and as advisors are able to sell underlying securities in
normalized markets.  Already, the liquidity available to investors
is a slightly higher percentage (32.6%) than the amount expected
on Sept. 29.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Fund manages $9.3 billion
in assets.  According to WSJ, Commonfund's CEO Verne O. Sedlacek
said that about 85% of the Fund was in "high-quality commercial
paper from blue-chip issuers," and the remaining is largely in
securities backed by assets like mortgages.

The decision to shut down the Fund didn't have any connection to
Wachovia's sale to Citigroup, because part of Wachovia that
handled the Fund isn't moving to Citigroup, WSJ relates, citing
Wachovia spokesperson Laura Fay.  According to the report, Ms. Fay
said that Wachovia was worried that there might be "the equivalent
of a run on the fund."

WACHOVIA CORP: Gov't Okays Merger With Wells Fargo
--------------------------------------------------
Scott Lanman at Bloomberg News reports that the Federal Reserve's
Board of Governors unanimously approved on Oct. 12, Wells Fargo's
$12.2 billion takeover of Wachovia Corp.  According to Bloomberg,
Wells Fargo must wait five days before completing the acquisition.

Wachovia, as disclosed on Oct. 3, 2008, will issue shares of
preferred stock pursuant to the merger agreement and share
exchange agreement the company entered with Wells Fargo & Co. on
Oct. 3, 2008.

The transaction would normally require approval of shareholders
according to the Shareholder Approval Policy of the New York Stock
Exchange.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Wachovia
determined that the delay necessary in securing shareholder
approval for the consummation of the stock issuance would
seriously jeopardize the financial viability of Wachovia.  In
reaching this conclusion, the Audit Committee considered various
factors, including factors specific to Wachovia, the extraordinary
and highly uncertain economic, financial and political environment
and the experience of other financial institutions.  Because of
that determination, the Audit Committee, pursuant to an exception
provided in the NYSE's shareholder approval policy for such a
situation, expressly approved Wachovia's omission to seek the
shareholder approval that would otherwise have been required under
that policy.  The NYSE has accepted Wachovia's application of the
exception.

Wachovia, in reliance on the exception, is mailing to all
shareholders a letter notifying them of its intention to issue the
shares without seeking their approval.  Ten days after the notice
is mailed and upon receipt of all required regulatory approvals,
Wachovia will proceed to issue certificates for the shares of
preferred stock.

The proposed merger will be submitted to Wachovia's shareholders
for their consideration.  Wells Fargo will file a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which will
include a proxy statement/prospectus, and each of Wachovia and
Wells Fargo may file other relevant documents concerning the
proposed merger. Shareholders and other investors are urged to
read the registration statement and the proxy statement/prospectus
when they become available, as well as any other relevant
documents concerning the proposed merger filed with the SEC -- and
any amendments or supplements to those documents -- because they
will contain important information.

Wachovia and Wells Fargo and their respective directors and
executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the
solicitation of proxies from the shareholders of Wachovia in
connection with the proposed merger.  Information about the
directors and executive officers of Wachovia is set forth in the
proxy statement for Wachovia's 2008 annual meeting of
shareholders, as filed with the SEC on a Schedule 14A on
March 10, 2008.  Information about the directors and executive
officers of Wells Fargo is set forth in the proxy statement for
Wells Fargo's 2008 annual meeting of shareholders, as filed with
the SEC on a Schedule 14A on March 17, 2008.

Washington Mutual Bank was taken over Sept. 25 by U.S. government
regulators.  The next day, WaMu and its debtor-affiliate, WMI
Investment Corp., filed separate petitions for Chapter 11 relief
(Bankr. D. Del. 08-12229 and 08-12228, respectively).  Wamu owns

WILLOW RE: S&P Cuts Rating on Class B 2007-1 Notes to 'CC'
----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its rating on Willow Re
Ltd.'s Class B 2007-1 principal-at-risk variable-rate notes to
'CC' from 'CCC'.

Standard & Poor's also said that it removed this rating from
CreditWatch, where it was placed on Sept. 30, 2008, with
developing implications.

Based on a recent investor conference call, Willow expects to make
the full interest payment due on Oct. 31, 2008.  However, future
payments--both interest and principal--are in doubt.

When S&P put the rating on the notes on CreditWatch developing,
there was the potential that Willow could find a replacement total
return swap counterparty after it terminated its arrangement with
Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc.  In the intervening period,
the disruption in the credit markets has only increased, putting
further pressure on the market value of the assets.  "Given the
values assigned, it has become increasingly doubtful that Willow
will find a replacement total return swap counterparty," noted
Standard & Poor's credit analyst Gary Martucci.

In addition, even though the assets continue to receive scheduled
payments, because of issues such as when an index is reset and
when the payment is received, there can be no assurance the assets
will generate sufficient cash flow to make the January interest
payment.  "Given these expectations, it appears highly unlikely
that noteholders will receive timely principal and interest
payments," Mr. Martucci added.


ZOO HF: Fitch Keeps EUR5.5 Mil. Class E Rating 'BB' on Neg. Watch
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has downgraded six tranches from five hedge fund
collateralized fund obligations.  All 22 tranches remain on Rating
Watch Negative.  

These rating actions follow Fitch's reassessment of the macro
risks that affect its analysis of HF CFOs - notably higher
observed market volatility, reduced liquidity, and limited
transparency in underlying hedge funds.  Accordingly, Fitch is no
longer of the opinion that HF CFOs have risk characteristics that
are consistent with an 'AAA' rating.

As mentioned in the press release 'Fitch Places 22 Tranches from 5
Hedge Fund CFOs on Rating Watch Negative', published Sept. 25,
2008, the Negative Watch designations are primarily the result of
the application of Fitch's revised market value structures
criteria, published April 18, 2008.  The current rating actions
have been taken in conjunction with Fitch's broad review of the
hedge fund CFO sector, which is still ongoing.  While further
refinement and individual transaction analysis remains to be done,
Fitch decided that at this point, the highest rated classes were
not at a level that accurately represented Fitch's credit view and
therefore needed to be downgraded.

Fitch is currently reassessing its prior model-based approach for
analyzing HF CFOs, given the recent market environment. Fitch is
also requesting that additional detailed information be provided
on an ongoing basis from managers.  Where managers are unable or
unwilling to provide this additional information, Fitch may be
forced to withdraw its ratings.  Fitch expects to finalize its
review of these transactions by the end of the year.

The current HF CFO ratings are:

Man Glenwood Alternative Strategies II Ltd.

  -- $250,000,000 class A downgrade to 'AA' from 'AAA', remains on
     Rating Watch Negative;

  -- $40,000,000 class B 'AA', remains on Rating Watch Negative;

  -- $15,000,000 class C 'A', remains on Rating Watch Negative;

  -- $43,750,000 class D 'BBB', remains on Rating Watch Negative.

* S&P Puts Default Rating on 3 Alt-A RMBS Certificate Classes
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on 77
classes of mortgage pass-through certificates from the following
five U.S. Alternative-A residential mortgage-backed securities
transactions issued in 2006 and 2007: First Horizon Alternative
Mortgage Securities Trust 2007-FA4; Morgan Stanley Mortgage Loan
Trust 2007-8XS; WaMu Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates Series
2007-OA6 Trust; Washington Mutual Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates WMALT Series 2006-AR4 Trust; and Washington Mutual
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, WMALT Series 2006-AR5 Trust.  
The downgraded classes have a current balance of approximately
$2.84 billion.

S&P removed one of the lowered ratings from CreditWatch with
negative implications.  At the same time, S&P affirmed its ratings
on the remaining 20 classes from three of the five deals.

The collateral for these deals consists of Alt-A, fixed- and
adjustable-rate mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family
residential properties.  The downgrades reflect S&P's opinion that
projected credit support for the affected classes is insufficient
to maintain the previous ratings.  S&P's projected lifetime losses
for each structure within the affected transactions are:

As part of S&P's analysis, it considered the characteristics of
the underlying mortgage collateral as well as macroeconomic
influences.  For example, the risk profile of the underlying
mortgage pools influences its default projections, while its  
outlook for housing price declines and the health of the housing
market influence its loss severity assumptions.

To assess the creditworthiness of each class, S&P reviewed the
individual delinquency and loss trends of each transaction for
changes, if any, in risk characteristics, servicing, and the
expected ability to withstand additional credit deterioration.  In
order to maintain a rating higher than 'B', a class had to absorb
losses in excess of the base-case assumptions S&P assumed in its
analysis.  For example, a class may have to withstand
approximately 115% of S&P's base-case loss assumptions in order to
maintain a 'BB' rating, while a different class may have to
withstand approximately 125% of its base-case loss assumptions to
maintain a 'BBB' rating.

A class that has an affirmed 'AAA' rating can likely withstand
approximately 150% of S&P's base-case loss assumptions under its
analysis, subject to individual caps and qualitative factors
assumed on specific transactions.

S&P also took into account the pay structure of each transaction
and only stressed each class with losses that would occur while it
remained outstanding.  Additionally, S&P only gave excess interest
credit for the amount of time the class would be outstanding.  For
example, if S&P projected a class to pay down in 15 months, then
S&P only applied 15 months of losses to that class.  Additionally,
in such a case S&P assumed 15 months of excess spread if the class
was structured with excess spread as credit enhancement.

* S&P Puts Default Ratings on 3 Classes of C-Bass Certificates
--------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on 13
classes of pass-through certificates from four reperforming U.S.
residential mortgage-backed securities transactions issued from
2002, 2003, and 2006.  Of these 13 ratings, S&P lowered three of
the 13 ratings to 'D' and removed one rating from CreditWatch with
negative implications.  At the same time, S&P affirmed its ratings
on 21 classes from one document-deficient and four reperforming
transactions.

The downgrades reflect erosion in credit support caused by a
reduction in subordination.  The decline resulted from monthly
losses that are exceeding excess interest, which caused
overcollateralization to deteriorate.  At the current loss levels,
current and projected credit support percentages are not
sufficient to support the ratings at their previous levels.   
Cumulative losses for the transactions S&P reviewed ranged from
2.96% (MASTR Specialized Loan Trust 2005-01) to 11.98%
(C-BASS 2003-RP1 Trust) of the original pool balances as of the
September 2008 remittance period.  Total delinquencies ranged from
14.65% (MASTR Specialized Loan Trust 2004-02) to 58.83% (C-BASS
2003-RP1 Trust) of the current pool balances.  

Severe delinquencies ranged from 10.56% (MASTR Specialized Loan
Trust 2004-02) to 44.59% (CWABS Asset-Backed Notes Trust 2006-SD4)
of the current pool balances.  These deals are seasoned between 21
months (CWABS Asset-Backed Notes Trust 2006-SD4) and 79 months
(C-BASS Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Certificates 2002-CB1).  

Overcollateralization, subordination, and excess spread provide
credit support for most of the deals.  The collateral for these
transactions primarily consists of reperforming or document-
deficient, adjustable- and fixed-rate mortgage loans secured by
first liens on one- to four-family residential properties.

* S&P Junks Ratings on 10 Classes of CDO Securities
---------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on 15
tranches from five U.S. cash flow and hybrid collateralized debt
obligation transactions.  S&P removed nine of the lowered ratings
from CreditWatch with negative implications.  The ratings on six
of the downgraded tranches are on CreditWatch with negative
implications, indicating a significant likelihood of further
downgrades.  The CreditWatch placements primarily affect
transactions for which a significant portion of the collateral
assets currently have ratings on CreditWatch with negative
implications or have significant exposure to assets rated in the
'CCC' category.

The 15 downgraded U.S. cash flow and hybrid tranches have a total
issuance amount of $2.994 billion.  Two of the five affected
transactions are mezzanine structured finance CDOs of asset-backed
securities, which are collateralized in large part by mezzanine
tranches of residential mortgage-backed securities and other SF
securities.  Three of the five transactions are high-grade SF CDOs
of ABS, which were collateralized at origination primarily by
'AAA' through 'A' rated tranches of RMBS and other SF securities.  
The CDO downgrades reflect a number of factors, including credit
deterioration and recent negative rating actions on U.S. subprime
RMBS.

To date, S&P has lowered its ratings on 3,897 tranches from 879
U.S. cash flow, hybrid, and synthetic CDO transactions as a result
of stress in the U.S. residential mortgage market and credit
deterioration of U.S. RMBS.  In addition, 1,263 ratings from 449
transactions are currently on CreditWatch with negative
implications for the same reasons.  In all, S&P has downgraded
$456.597 billion of CDO issuance.

Additionally, S&P's ratings on $28.439 billion of securities have
not been lowered but are currently on CreditWatch with negative
implications, indicating a high likelihood of future downgrades.

* Write-Downs Cue S&P Default Ratings on 32 Certificate Classes
---------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on 32
classes of asset-backed certificates from 24 U.S. subprime
residential mortgage-backed securities transactions issued between
2003 and 2007.

S&P downgraded these classes to 'D' because they all experienced
principal write-downs.

Subordination, overcollateralization, and excess spread provide
credit support for these transactions.  The collateral for these
deals originally consisted primarily of fixed- and adjustable-rate
mortgage loans secured primarily by one- to four-family
residential properties.

* S&P Junks Ratings on 32 Tranches From 17 Synthetic CDOs
---------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on 32
tranches from 17 synthetic collateralized debt obligation
transactions; these ratings remain on CreditWatch with negative
implications.  In addition, S&P left the ratings on 85 additional
tranches from 29 synthetic CDO deals on CreditWatch negative.

The downgrades follow Standard & Poor's review of synthetic CDO
transactions for which Lehman Bros. Holdings Inc. acts as either
the credit support provider or guarantor to various Lehman Bros.
entities that act as swap counterparties to the affected
transactions.  Standard & Poor's believes the downgraded notes
will not have enough funds to pay the principal balance and
accrued interest upon liquidation.  

S&P expects the shortfall to cause loss of principal on the rated
notes, even though the shortfall is caused by a failure of Lehman
Bros. Holdings Inc. to meet its obligations under the swap
agreements.  Because noteholders generally benefit from
subordinated swap termination payments, S&P expects principal
losses to be minimal.  However, Standard & Poor's considers
principal losses to constitute a rating default.

S&P believes that the notes with ratings remaining on CreditWatch
negative but not lowered will be paid in full upon the liquidation
of the transaction.  These notes benefited from both the
subordinated swap termination payments and the requirement that
Lehman post collateral one period in advance on the coupon owed to
the notes.

Once S&P receives final payment reports, if the notes experience a
loss, it will downgrade them to 'D'.  However, if the notes are
paid back in full, it will withdraw the ratings.

* S&P Lowers Ratings on 39 Classes From 6 RMBS Transactions
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on 39
classes from six residential mortgage-backed securities
transactions backed by U.S. Alternative-A mortgage loan collateral
issued in 2006.  The downgraded classes have a current balance
of approximately $10.4 billon.  S&P removed 13 of the lowered
ratings from CreditWatch with negative implications.  In addition,
S&P affirmed its ratings on 37 classes from these transactions.

The downgrades reflect S&P's opinion that projected credit support
for the affected classes is insufficient to maintain the previous
ratings, given its current projected losses.  S&P arrived at S&P's
estimated projected losses for the Alt-A RMBS deals using the
foreclosure curve analysis outlined in "S&P Updates Its Default
And Loss Assumptions For U.S. Fixed-Alt-A RMBS Transactions"
published Sept. 25, 2008, on RatingsDirect and in "Standard &
Poor's Revised Default And Loss Curves For U.S. Alt-A RMBS
Transactions," published Dec. 19, 2007, on RatingsDirect.  The
revised loss assumptions S&P used in this review also include the
new loss severity assumptions, which were outlined in " Criteria:
Standard & Poor's Revises U.S. Subprime, Prime, And Alternative-A
RMBS Loss Assumptions," published on July 30, 2008, on
RatingsDirect.

As part of its analysis, S&P considered the characteristics of the
underlying mortgage collateral as well as macroeconomic
influences.  For example, the risk profile of the underlying
mortgage pools influences S&P's default projections, while its
outlook for housing price declines and the health of the housing
market influence its loss severity assumptions.

To assess the creditworthiness of each class, S&P reviewed the
individual delinquency and loss trends of each transaction for
changes, if any, in risk characteristics, servicing, and the
expected ability to withstand additional credit deterioration.  In
order to maintain a rating higher than 'B', a class had to absorb
losses in excess of the base-case assumptions S&P assumed in its
analysis.  For example, a class may have to withstand
approximately 115% of S&P's base-case loss assumptions in order to
maintain a 'BB' rating, while a different class may have to
withstand approximately 125% of its base-case loss assumptions to
maintain a 'BBB' rating.  A class that has an affirmed 'AAA'
rating can likely withstand approximately 150% of its base-case
loss assumptions under its analysis, subject to individual caps
and qualitative factors assumed on specific transactions.

S&P also took into account the pay structure of each transaction
and only stressed each class with losses that would occur while it
remained outstanding.  Additionally, S&P only gave excess interest
credit for the amount of time the class would be outstanding.  For
example, if S&P projected a class to pay down in 15 months, then
it only applied 15 months of losses to that class.  Additionally,
in such a case S&P assumed 15 months of excess spread if the class
was structured with excess spread as credit enhancement.

Over the last several weeks Standard & Poor's has been reviewing
Alt-A collateral consisting of negative amortization (Neg-Am) and
hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage loans.  The transactions within
this review are predominantly backed by negative amortization and
long-reset fixed loans.  Including the transactions in this
release, S&P has resolved the ratings on 153 of these deals, with
the remaining 116 to be reviewed in the next few weeks.  Standard
& Poor's will continue to analyze the remaining transactions
affected by S&P's revised loss expectations.  S&P will analyze
deals in order of performance, looking at worse-performing deals
first.

* S&P Lowers Ratings on 108 Classes From 9 Alt-A RMBS
-----------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services lowered its ratings on 108
classes from nine U.S. Alternative-A residential mortgage-backed
securities transactions.  S&P removed 65 of the 108 lowered
ratings from CreditWatch with negative implications.  Five classes
were placed on CreditWatch with negative implications due to the
status of Financial Security Assurance Inc.,  who acts as the
insurer for those particular classes.  Additionally, S&P affirmed
its ratings on 40 other classes from six of the reviewed
transactions.  

Two of the affirmed ratings were removed from CreditWatch with
negative implications.  The shelves from the aggregate review
include Alternative Loan Trust, Bear Stearns Arm Trust, Bear
Stearns Mortgage Funding Trust, Citigroup Mortgage Loan Trust, and
MASTR Adjustable Rate Mortgages Trust.

The downgrades, affirmations, and CreditWatch resolutions
incorporate the current and projected losses based on the dollar
amounts of loans currently in the delinquency, foreclosure, and
real estate owned pipelines, as well as S&P's projection of future
defaults.  S&P also incorporated cumulative losses to date in its
analysis when determining ratings outcomes.

The lowered ratings reflect S&P's belief that the amount of credit
enhancement available for the downgraded classes is not sufficient
to cover losses at the previous rating levels.  Although
cumulative losses were less than 1.00% of the original collateral
balance for many of the reviewed transactions, and the highest
cumulative loss was 3.21%, S&P is projecting an increase in losses
due to increases in delinquencies and the current condition
of the housing market.

Additionally, due to the negative amortization feature of certain
loans, losses may be amplified relative to those for standard
forward mortgages if the balances of those particular loans should
increase.  The transactions backed by negative-amortization loans,
which include the Bear Stearns Mortgage Funding and MASTR
Adjustable Rate Mortgages trusts, had severe delinquencies of
roughly 19.00%.

As well, the Alternative Loan, Bear Stearns Arm, and Citigroup
Mortgage Loan trusts had severe delinquencies and cumulative
losses ranging from 2.45% to 18.35% and 0.00% to 2.00%
respectively.  Part of the rationale in the variance in severe
delinquencies and cumulative losses for the transactions is the
limited seasoning evident in some of the deals compared with
others.  

The affirmations reflect sufficient credit enhancement to support
the ratings at their current levels.  Certain senior classes also
benefit from senior support classes that would bear any applicable
losses before the losses could affect the super-senior
certificates.

The subordination of more-junior classes within each structure
provides credit support for the affected transactions.  
Additionally, some of the structures use overcollateralization and
excess spread to absorb losses and accelerate payments to certain
securityholders.  Certain classes also utilize a certificate
insurer (Financial Security Assurance Inc.) as credit enhancement.
The collateral backing the affected trusts originally consisted
predominantly of Alt-A first-lien, adjustable-rate, or negative-
amortization residential mortgage loans on one- to four-family
properties.

S&P monitors these transactions over time to incorporate updated
losses and delinquency pipeline performance to determine whether
the applicable credit enhancement features are sufficient to
support the current ratings.  S&P will continue to monitor these
transactions and take additional rating actions as appropriate.  
Additionally, over the past several weeks, and going forward,
Standard and Poor's is reviewing Alt-A collateral consisting of
negative amortization and hybrid adjustable rate mortgage loans.  

The transactions within this review are predominantly backed by
negative amortization and long-reset hybrid ARM loans.  Inclusive
of the transactions in this release, approximately 152 of these
deals with ratings on CreditWatch have been resolved, leaving
roughly 116 to be reviewed.

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 $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
Wednesday's edition of the TCR. Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged.  Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com/

On Thursdays, the TCR delivers a list of recently filed chapter 11
cases involving less than $1,000,000 in assets and liabilities
delivered to nation's bankruptcy courts.  The list includes links
to freely downloadable images of these small-dollar petitions in
Acrobat PDF format.

Each Friday's edition of the TCR includes a review about a book of
interest to troubled company professionals.  All titles are
available at your local bookstore or through Amazon.com.  Go to
http://www.bankrupt.com/books/to order any title today.

Monthly Operating Reports are summarized in every Saturday edition
of the TCR.

For copies of court documents filed in the District of Delaware,
please contact Vito at Parcels, Inc., at 302-658-9911.  For
bankruptcy documents filed in cases pending outside the District
of Delaware, contact Ken Troubh at Nationwide Research &
Consulting at 207/791-2852.
