Solus Alternative Asset Management LP ("Solus") today issued the following statement regarding the decision to settle its dispute over the recent refinancing transaction involving GSO Capital Partners LP ("GSO"), the credit arm of Blackstone, and Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. HOV:

"We are very pleased to have resolved this matter. Solus looks forward to working alongside other market participants, regulators, and ISDA to improve existing CDS documentation and enhance the integrity of the credit derivatives market."

Other terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
