Abstract:

On Dec. 11, 2008, Standard&Poor's Ratings Services affirmed its 'B-' long-term corporate credit ratings on U.K.-based chemical group Ineos (which includes Ineos Group Holdings PLC, Ineos Holdings Ltd., Ineos Vinyls Finance PLC, and Ineos Vinyls Ltd., all rated the same). The outlook is negative. At the same time, we removed all ratings from CreditWatch, where they were placed with negative implication on Nov. 18, 2008, following Ineos' waiver request tied to its senior debt covenants. The recovery ratings on the debt are unchanged. The CreditWatch removal reflects the success of Ineos' covenant waiver request for fourth-quarter 2008 and first-quarter 2009. However, this provides only short-term relief for the company and Ineos will have to renegotiate with its lenders
