...NEW YORK (S&P Global Ratings) Jan. 25, 2017--S&P Global Ratings said today it assigned its '###' issue-level rating and '5' recovery rating to Columbus, Ohio.-based Hexion Inc.'s proposed $200 million 1.5-lien senior secured notes due in 2022. The '5' recovery rating indicates our expectation for modest recovery in the event of payment default (lower half of the 10% to 30% range). The company plans to use proceeds to fund redemption of the remaining 8.875% senior notes due in 2018. The ratings on Hexion, including the '###+' corporate credit rating, are unchanged. The rating outlook remains negative. We based all ratings on preliminary terms and conditions.
