We are a leading national provider of parking facility management services. We provide on-site management services at multi-level and surface parking facilities for all major markets of the parking industry. We manage approximately 2,200 locations, containing over one million parking spaces, in over 330 cities across the United States and Canada. Our diversified client base includes some of the nation's largest private and public owners, managers and developers of major office buildings, residential properties, commercial properties, shopping centers and other retail properties, sports and special event complexes, hotels, and hospitals and medical centers, including properties such as the MET Life Building in New York, the Four Seasons Hotel in Chicago, Harvard Medical School in Boston, Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Westfield Shoppingtown Century City in Los Angeles, and Greenway Plaza in Houston. In addition, we manage 133 parking-related and shuttle bus operations serving 63 airports, including Chicago O'Hare International Airport, Cleveland Hopkins International Airport and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.

Since entering the parking business in 1929, we have focused on providing our clients with superior management services to attract customers. We believe that our management services, coupled with a leading position in our core markets, help to maximize profitability per parking facility for both us and our clients. We believe that we have created our leading position by providing:

Moreover, as a public company subject to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we adhere to accounting, internal control and reporting standards that are more rigorous than those typically followed by our non-public competitors.

We believe that these factors distinguish us from our competitors and contribute to our high location retention rate, which averaged 89%, for the year ended December 31, 2008 (which statistic includes the impact of our decision to exit from unprofitable contracts).

We do not own any parking facilities and, as a result, we assume few of the risks of real estate ownership. We operate our clients' parking properties through two types of arrangements: management contracts and leases. Under a management contract, we typically receive a base monthly fee for managing the facility, and we may also receive an incentive fee based on the achievement of facility performance objectives. We also receive fees for ancillary services. Typically, all of the underlying revenues and expenses under a standard management contract flow through to our client rather than to us. Under lease arrangements, we generally pay either a fixed annual rent, a percentage of gross customer collections, or a combination thereof to the property owner. We collect all revenues under lease arrangements and we are responsible for most operating expenses, but we are typically not responsible for major maintenance, capital expenditures or real estate taxes. As of December 31, 2008, we operated 90% of our locations under management contracts and 10% under leases.

We also provide a range of ancillary services to satisfy client needs such as municipal meter collection and valet parking.

The commercial parking industry comprises a large number of participants. The vast majority of firms are privately held companies, consisting of relatively few nationwide companies and hundreds of small regional or local operators, including a substantial number of companies that provide parking as an ancillary service in connection with property management or ownership. The parking industry from time to time experiences consolidation as smaller operators find that they lack the financial resources, economies of scale and management techniques required to compete with larger providers. We expect this trend will continue and provide larger parking management companies with opportunities to win business and acquire smaller operators.

Parking facilities operate under three general types of arrangements: management contracts, leases and ownership. The general terms and benefits of these three types of arrangements are as follows:

Management Contracts. Under a management contract, the facility operator generally receives a base monthly fee for managing the facility and may receive an incentive fee based on the achievement of facility performance objectives. Facility operators generally charge fees for various ancillary services such as accounting, equipment leasing and consulting. Responsibilities under a management contract include hiring, training and staffing parking personnel, and providing revenue collection, accounting, record-keeping, insurance and facility marketing services. In general, under a management contract, the facility operator is not responsible for structural or mechanical repairs, and typically is not responsible for providing security or guard services. Under typical management contracts, the facility owner is responsible for operating expenses such as taxes, license and permit fees, insurance premiums, payroll and accounts receivable processing and wages of personnel assigned to the facility. However, some management contracts, which are referred to as "reverse" management contracts, usually provide for larger management fees and require the facility operator to pay certain of these costs. Generally under management contracts, the facility owner is responsible for non-routine maintenance, repair costs and capital improvements. Management contracts are typically for a term of one to three years (though the client often reserves the right to terminate, without cause, on 30 days' notice) and may contain a renewal clause.

Leases. Under a lease arrangement, the parking facility operator generally pays to the property owner either a fixed annual rent, a percentage of facility revenues, or a combination thereof. The parking facility operator collects all revenues and is responsible for most operating expenses, but is typically not responsible for major maintenance, capital expenditures or real estate taxes. In contrast to management contracts, leases are typically for terms of three to ten years, often contain a renewal term, and provide for a fixed payment to the facility owner regardless of the facility's operating earnings. However, many of these leases may be cancelled by the client for various reasons, including development of the real estate for other uses. Some are cancelable by the client on as little as 30 days' notice without cause. Leased facilities generally require a longer commitment and a larger capital investment by the parking facility operator than do managed facilities.

Ownership. Ownership of parking facilities, either independently or through joint ventures, typically requires a larger capital investment and greater potential risks and rewards than managed or leased facilities. All owned facility revenues flow directly to the owner, and the owner has the potential to realize benefits of appreciation in the value of the underlying real estate. The owner of a parking

facility is responsible for all obligations related to the property, including all structural, mechanical and electrical maintenance and repairs and property taxes. Due to the high cost of real estate in many major urban markets, ownership of parking facilities usually requires large capital investments. Standard Parking does not own any parking facilities.

A number of opportunities for growth exist for larger parking facility operators, including the following:

Growth of Large Property Managers, Owners and Developers. Over the past several years, there has been a substantial increase in the number of national property managers, owners and developers with multiple locations. Sophisticated property owners consider parking a profit center that experienced parking facility management companies can maximize. This dynamic favors larger parking facility operators that can provide specialized, value-added professional services with nationwide coverage. In order to streamline their business, many of these large national property managers, owners and developers have reduced the number of suppliers with which they conduct business.

Increased Outsourcing of Parking Management and Related Services. Growth in the parking management industry has resulted from a continuing trend by parking facility owners to outsource the management of their parking and related operations to independent operators. We believe that entities such as large property management managers, owners and developers as well as cities, municipal authorities, hospitals and universities will increasingly retain parking management companies to operate facilities and provide related services in an effort to focus on their core competencies, reduce operating budgets and increase profitability and efficiency. We believe this trend is expanding to include outsourcing of shuttle bus operations, municipal meter collection and valet parking.

Industry Consolidation. The parking management industry is highly fragmented, with hundreds of small regional or local operators. We believe national parking facility operators have a competitive advantage over local and regional operators by reason of their:

As a professional parking management company, we provide a comprehensive, turn-key package of parking services to our clients. Under a typical management contract structure, we are responsible for providing and supervising all personnel necessary to facilitate daily parking operations including cashiers, porters, valet attendants, managers, bookkeepers, and a variety of maintenance, marketing, customer service, and accounting and revenue control functions. By way of example, our typical day-to-day operating duties, whether performed using our own personnel or subcontracted vendors, include:

The scope of our management services typically also includes a number of functions that support the basic daily facility operations, such as:

Beyond the conventional parking facility management services described above, we also offer an expanded range of ancillary services. For example:

We offer a comprehensive package of amenity and customer service programs, branded as Ambiance in Parking®, that can be provided to our customers, many at nominal or no cost to the client. These programs not only make the parking experience more enjoyable, but also convey a sense of the client's sensitivity to and appreciation of the needs of its parking customers. In doing so, we believe the programs serve to enhance the value of the parking properties themselves.

Musical Theme Floor Reminder System. Our musical theme floor reminder system is designed to help customers remember the garage level on which they parked. A different song is played on each floor of the parking garage. Each floor also displays distinctive signage and graphics that correspond with the floor's theme. For example, in one parking facility with U.S. colleges as a theme, a different college logo is displayed, and that college's specific fight song is heard, on each parking level. Other parking facilities have themes such as famous recording artists, musical instruments, and professional sports teams.

Books-To-Go® CD Library. Monthly customers can borrow—free of charge—audio CD to which they can listen as they drive to and from work. A wide selection of fiction, non-fiction and business titles is maintained in the facility office.

Films-To-Go® DVD Library. This amenity builds on the success of our popular Books-To-Go® program. DVDs of many popular movie titles are stocked in the parking facility office and made available free of charge to monthly customers. The movie selections are updated on a regular basis.

Little Parkers® Child-Friendly Facilities. This amenity creates a family atmosphere at the parking facility. Customers may use baby changing stations installed in the public restrooms. Kids appreciate the distribution of free toys such as bubble bottles, coloring books and stuffed animals.

Complimentary Driver Assistance Services. Parking facility attendants provide a wide range of complimentary services to customers with car problems. Assistance can include charging weak batteries, inflating/changing tires, cleaning windshields and refilling windshield washer fluid. Attendants also can help customers locate their vehicles and escort them to their cars.

Standard Equipment & Technology Upgrade Program® Services (SETUP®). Standard Parking provides clients with a complete turnkey solution to managing all phases of new equipment projects, from initial design to installation to ongoing maintenance. Our design team will suggest a complete solution intended to return to our clients the greatest value for their investment based upon consideration of a wide array of choices as to both equipment (such as Pay-On-Foot, Automated Vehicle Identification and Automated Credit/Debit Card machine technology) and services (procurement, project management, installation and maintenance).

Standard Road Assist® Emergency Services. Parking customers experiencing vehicle problems beyond weak batteries and low tire pressure call our toll-free number to receive, on a pay-per-use basis, a basic package of emergency services, including towing up to five miles, jump starting, flat tire changing, fuel delivery, extracting a vehicle from the side of the road and lock-out service. The emergency services are provided at the parking facility or anywhere on the road.

CarCare Maintenance Services. A car service vendor will pick-up a customer's car from the parking facility, contact the customer with an estimate, service the car during normal working hours and return it to the facility before the end of the business day.

ParkNet® Traffic Information System. The system provides customers with continuously updated traffic reports on a site-specific basis so that drivers can learn not only about traffic conditions on the area highways, but also about conditions in the immediate vicinity of the parking facility.

Automated Teller Machines. On-site ATM machines provide customers access to cash from bankcards and credit cards. We arrange for the installation of the machine, operated and maintained by an outside vendor. The parking facility realizes supplemental income from a fixed monthly rent and a share of usage transaction fees.

Complimentary Courtesy Umbrellas and Flashlights. Courtesy umbrellas are loaned to customers on rainy days. A similar lending program can be implemented to provide flashlights in emergency situations or power outages.

Complimentary Services/Customer Appreciation Days. Our clients select from a variety of complimentary services that we provide as a special way of saying "thank you" to our parking customers. Depending on client preferences, coffee, donuts and/or newspapers occasionally are provided to customers during the morning rush hour. On certain holidays, candy, with wrappers that can be customized with the facility logo, can be distributed to customers as they exit. We also can distribute personalized promotional items, such as ice scrapers and key-chains.

Our efforts to attract new clients are primarily concentrated in and coordinated by a dedicated business development group, whose background and expertise is in the field of sales and marketing, and whose financial compensation is determined to a significant extent by their business development success. This business development group is responsible for forecasting sales, maintaining a pipeline of prospective and existing clients, initiating contacts with such clients, and then following through to coordinate meetings involving those clients and the appropriate members of our operations hierarchy. By concentrating our sales efforts through this dedicated group, we enable our operations personnel to focus on achieving excellence in our parking facility operations and maximizing our clients' parking profits and our own profitability.

We also place a specific focus on marketing and client relationship efforts that pertain to those clients having a large regional or national presence. Accordingly, we assign a dedicated executive to those clients to address any existing portfolio issues, as well as to reinforce existing—and develop new—account relationships and to take any other action that may further our business development interests.

We maintain regional and city offices throughout the United States and Canada in order to support approximately 13,320 employees and approximately 2,200 locations. These offices serve as the central bases through which we provide the employees to staff our parking facilities as well as the on-site and support management staff to oversee those operations. Our administrative staff accountants are based in those same offices and facilitate the efficient, accurate and timely production and delivery to our clients of our monthly reports. Having these all-inclusive operations and accounting teams located in regional and city offices throughout the United States and Canada allows us to add new locations quickly and in a cost-efficient manner. To facilitate the training of our facility personnel throughout the country, we have created Standard University^sm, the foundation of all our formal training programs that span a wide range of topics including soft skills, technology, software, leadership skills and operating procedures. Courses are deployed using a multitude of methods including classroom sessions, web-based sessions, and self-managed, computer-based training. Standard University^sm is available to our employees on a 24/7 basis so they may access training and information when they need it.

Our overall basic corporate functions in the areas of finance, human resources, risk management, legal, purchasing and procurement, general administration, strategy and information and technology are based in our Chicago corporate office. The Chicago corporate office also supports and promotes

consistency throughout our field operations by developing and administering our operational, financial and administrative policies, practices and procedures.

Our client base includes a diverse cross-section of public and private owners, developers and managers of real estate. A list of some of our clients, and the types of properties for which we operate their parking, include:

No single client represented more than 6.3% of revenues or more than 4.8% of our gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2008. For the years ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we retained an average of 89% and 91%, respectively, of our locations (which statistic includes the impact of our decision to exit from unprofitable contracts).

We believe that automation and technology can enhance customer convenience, lower labor costs, improve cash management and increase overall profitability. We have been a leader in the field of introducing automation and technology to the parking business and we were among the first to adopt electronic fund transfer (EFT) payment options, pay-on-foot (ATM) technology and bar code decal technology.

To promote internal efficiency, we have created advanced information systems that connect local offices across the country to our corporate headquarters. These systems support accounting, financial management and reporting practices, general operating procedures, training, employment policies, cash controls and marketing procedures. Our commitment to the application of technology in the parking management business has resulted in the creation of a proprietary product, Client View™. Client View™ is an Internet-based system that gives our clients the flexibility and convenience to access and download their monthly financials and detailed back-up reports. We believe that our standardized processes and controls enhance our ability to successfully add new locations and expand our operations into new markets.

As of December 31, 2008, we employed approximately 13,320 individuals, including approximately 7,690 full-time and 5,630 part-time employees. As of December 31, 2007, we employed approximately 12,600 individuals, including approximately 7,060 full-time and 5,540 part-time employees. Approximately 24% of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. No single

collective bargaining agreement covers a material number of employees. We believe that our employee relations are good.

We purchase comprehensive liability insurance covering certain claims that occur at parking facilities we lease or manage. The primary amount of such coverage is $2.0 million per occurrence and $2.0 million in the aggregate per facility for our garage liability and garage keepers legal liability coverages. In addition, we purchase workers' compensation insurance for all eligible employees and umbrella/excess liability coverage. Under our various liability and workers' compensation insurance policies, we are obligated to reimburse the insurance carrier for the first $250,000 of any loss. As a result, we are, in effect, self-insured for all claims up to that deductible level. We utilize a third-party administrator to process and pay claims. We also purchase property insurance that provides coverage for loss or damage to our property and in some cases our clients' property, as well as business interruption coverage for lost operating income and certain associated expenses. The deductible applicable to any given loss under our property insurance policy varies based upon the insured values and the peril that causes the loss. We also purchase group health insurance with respect to eligible full-time employees and family members (whether such employees work at leased or managed facilities) and are fully-insured for all covered expenses. We believe that our insurance coverage is adequate and consistent with industry practice.

Because of the size of the operations covered and our claims experience, we purchase insurance policies at prices that we believe represent a discount to the prices that would typically be charged to parking facility owners on a stand-alone basis. The clients for whom we operate parking facilities pursuant to management contracts have the option of purchasing their own liability insurance policies (provided that we are named as an additional insured pursuant to an additional insured endorsement), but historically most of our clients have chosen to obtain insurance coverage by being named as additional insureds under our master liability insurance policies. Pursuant to our management contracts we charge to such clients an allocated portion of our insurance-related costs at rates that we believe are competitive. A material reduction or increase in the number of clients who obtain their insurance coverage by being named as additional insureds under our liability policies could have a material effect on our operating income. In addition, a material change in insurance costs due to a change in the number or severity of claims, or an increase in claims costs or premiums paid by us, could have a material effect on our operating income.

The parking industry is fragmented and highly competitive, with limited barriers to entry. We face direct competition for additional facilities to manage or lease, while our facilities themselves compete with nearby facilities for our parking customers and in the labor market generally for qualified employees. Moreover, the construction of new parking facilities near our existing facilities can adversely affect our business. There are only a few national parking management companies that compete with us. We also face competition from numerous smaller, locally owned independent parking operators, as well as from developers, hotels, national financial services companies and other institutions that manage their own parking facilities as well as facilities owned by others. Many municipalities and other governmental entities also operate their own parking facilities, potentially eliminating those facilities as management or lease opportunities for us. Some of our present and potential competitors have or may obtain greater financial and marketing resources than us, which may negatively impact our ability to retain existing contracts and gain new contracts. We face significant competition in our efforts to provide ancillary services such as shuttle bus services and on-street parking enforcement because several large companies specialize in these services.

During the first quarter of each year, seasonality impacts our performance with regard to moderating revenues, with the reduced levels of travel most clearly reflected in the parking activity associated with our airport and hotel businesses as well as increases in certain costs of parking services, such as snow removal, both of which negatively affect gross profit. Although our revenues and profitability are affected by the seasonality of the business, general and administrative costs are relatively stable throughout the fiscal year. See Item 6, "Selected Financial Data," for further information.

Regulations by the Federal Aviation Administration may affect our business. The FAA generally prohibits parking within 300 feet of airport terminals during times of heightened alert. The 300 foot rule and new regulations may prevent us from using a number of existing spaces during heightened security alerts at airports. Reductions in the number of parking spaces may reduce our gross profit and cash flow for both our leased facilities and those facilities we operate under management contracts.

Our business is not otherwise substantially affected by direct governmental regulation, although both municipal and state authorities sometimes directly regulate parking facilities. We are affected by laws and regulations (such as zoning ordinances) that are common to any business that deals with real estate and by regulations (such as labor and tax laws) that affect companies with a large number of employees. In addition, several state and local laws have been passed in recent years that encourage car pooling and the use of mass transit. Laws and regulations that reduce the number of cars and vehicles being driven could adversely impact our business.

We collect and remit sales/parking taxes and file tax returns for and on behalf of ourselves and our clients. We are affected by laws and regulations that may impose a direct assessment on us for failure to remit sales/parking taxes or to file tax returns for ourselves and on behalf of our clients.

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. Such laws typically impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. In connection with the operation of parking facilities, we may be potentially liable for any such costs In addition, from time to time we are involved in environmental issues at certain of our locations or in connection with our operations. While it is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of any of these matters, based on information currently available, management believes that none of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The cost of defending against claims of liability, or of remediating a contaminated property, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Various other governmental regulations affect our operation of parking facilities, both directly and indirectly, including the ADA. Under the ADA, all public accommodations, including parking facilities, are required to meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. For example, the ADA requires parking facilities to include handicapped spaces, headroom for wheelchair vans, attendants' booths that accommodate wheelchairs and elevators that are operable by disabled persons. When negotiating management contracts and leases with clients, we generally require that the property owner contractually assume responsibility for any ADA liability in connection with the property. There can be no assurance, however, that the property owner has assumed such liability for any given property and there can be no assurance that we would not be held liable despite assumption of responsibility for such liability by the property owner. Management believes that the parking facilities we operate are in substantial compliance with ADA requirements.

You should carefully consider the following specific risk factors as well as other information contained or incorporated by reference in this report, as these, among others, are important factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our historical results. It is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete statement of all potential risks or uncertainties applicable to our business.

Adverse economic trends and turmoil in the credit markets and the financial services industry may reduce demand for our services, lower our earnings and harm our operations.

Recently, the credit markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a period of unprecedented turmoil and upheaval characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or sale of various financial institutions and an unprecedented level of intervention from the United States government. While the ultimate outcome of these events cannot be predicted, they may have a material adverse effect on us and our costs of borrowing. These events could also adversely impact the availability of financing to our clients and therefore our ability to collect amounts due from them, or cause such clients to terminate their contracts with us completely.

The financial difficulties or bankruptcy of one or more of our major clients could adversely affect results.

Future revenues and our ability to collect accounts receivable depend, in part, on the financial strength of our clients. We estimate an allowance for accounts we do not consider collectible and this allowance adversely impacts profitability. In the event our clients experience financial difficulty, and particularly if bankruptcy results, profitability is further impacted by our failure to collect accounts receivable in excess of the estimated allowance. Additionally, our future revenues would be reduced by the loss of these clients.

Our working capital and liquidity may be adversely affected if a significant number of our clients require us to deposit all parking revenues into their respective accounts.

We frequently contract with clients to hold parking revenues in our account and remit the revenues, minus the operating expenses and our fee, to our clients at the end of the month. Some clients, however, require us to deposit parking revenues in their accounts on a daily basis. This type of arrangement requires us to pay costs as they are incurred and receive reimbursement and our management fee after the end of the month. There can be no assurance that a significant number of clients will not switch to the practice of requiring us to deposit all parking revenues into their respective accounts, which would have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.

The offer or sale of a substantial amount of our common stock by our controlling shareholder could have an adverse impact on the market price of our common stock.

In February 2009, we were informed by Steamboat Industries LLC that it intends to sell a majority (and potentially all or substantially all) of its stake in the Company. Steamboat, which is controlled by our chairman, John V. Holten, and which currently controls a majority of the voting power of our common stock, intends that such sale occur through one or more public or private transactions. Steamboat has informed the Company that it plans to sell such shares in order to raise sufficient proceeds to repay a loan of approximately $110 million that it currently has with third-party lenders, which loan matures in the second quarter of 2009 and is secured by a pledge of all of Steamboat's common stock in the Company. We understand the loan agreements provide that if Steamboat is not able to repay the loan in full on or before the maturity date due to market conditions or otherwise, then the lenders will take any remaining shares in full satisfaction of the loan. We can provide no assurance as to the number of shares of the Company's common stock that will be sold or transferred by Steamboat or the manner, timing or other terms of such sale or transfer.

Steamboat Industries LLC is permitted to sell, dispose of or otherwise enter into other transactions involving significant amounts of our common stock under Rule 144 and other exemptions from registration under the federal securities laws. Steamboat Industries LLC also has transferable registration rights with respect to such common stock, which will be assigned to its lenders in the event of a foreclosure. The offer, sale, disposition or consummation of other such transactions involving substantial amounts of our common stock by these or other significant shareholders could have a significant negative impact on our stock price, particularly if such offers, sales, dispositions or transactions occur simultaneously or relatively close in time.

If a person or group unaffiliated with our parent company acquires a majority of our common stock, a change of control default could be triggered under our credit facility, which would adversely impact our liquidity, capital resources and business operations.

Our parent company, Steamboat Industries LLC, which is controlled by our chairman, John V. Holten, owns 50.3% of our outstanding common stock as of March 2, 2009. Steamboat has pledged all of its Company common stock as security for its debt obligations, and has announced its intent to sell a majority (and potentially all or substantially all) of its stake in the Company. If one person or group acquires a majority of our common stock, a change of control default could be triggered under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. If such an event were to occur, we would need to obtain a waiver from our lenders or amend the credit facility. If such a waiver or amendment were not granted, we could be forced to obtain a new credit facility, and our liquidity, capital resources and business operations could be adversely impacted.

Our parent company, Steamboat Industries LLC, which is controlled by our chairman, controls our major corporate decisions.

Our parent company, Steamboat Industries LLC, which is controlled by our chairman, John V. Holten, owns 50.3% of our outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2008. As a result, Steamboat Industries LLC is able to control us, the election and removal of the directors on our board of directors, and our management and policies. Steamboat Industries LLC also controls all matters regarding stockholder approval, including the amendment of certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws and the approval of fundamental corporate transactions. If Steamboat Industries LLC sells or transfers its majority ownership stake to one person or group, such person would also have the same ability to control us.

As of December 31, 2008, we have 21,300,000 shares of common stock authorized, of which 5,189,219 shares remained unissued. As a result, we require, and expect to require, the consent of Steamboat Industries LLC, or any successor to its majority interest, in order to authorize and issue additional common stock in connection with certain corporate actions that may be beneficial to our business or to our stockholders, such as pursuing acquisitions and mergers involving a issuance of our common stock. The ability of our parent company to control our major corporate decisions may harm the market price for our common stock by delaying, deferring or preventing a business combination involving our company, causing us to enter into transactions that are not in the best interests of all stockholders or discouraging third-party investors.

The loss or renewal on less favorable terms of a substantial number of management contracts or leases could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, because certain management contracts and leases are with state, local and quasi-governmental entities, changes to certain governmental entities' approaches to contracting regarding parking facilities could affect such contracts. A material reduction in the operating income associated with the integrated services we provide under management contracts and leases could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. To the extent that management contracts and leases are cancelable without cause, most of these contracts would also be cancelable in the event of our clients' bankruptcy, despite the automatic stay provisions under bankruptcy law.

Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial health and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations.

We cannot assure you that cash flow from operations, combined with additional borrowings under the senior credit facility and any future credit facility will be available in an amount sufficient to enable us to repay our indebtedness, or to fund other liquidity needs. We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, which could cause the related risks to intensify. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before their respective maturities. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including our senior credit facility, on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we are unable to refinance our debt, we may default under the terms of our indebtedness, which could lead to an acceleration of the debt. We do not expect that we could repay all of our outstanding indebtedness if the repayment of such indebtedness was accelerated.

Our business would be harmed if fewer clients obtain liability insurance coverage through us.

Many of our clients have historically chosen to obtain liability insurance coverage for the locations we manage by being named as additional insureds under our master insurance policies. Clients do, however, have the option of purchasing such insurance independently, as long as we are named as an

additional insured pursuant to an additional insured endorsement. We purchase insurance policies at prices that we believe represent a discount to the prices that would typically be charged to parking facility owners on a stand-alone basis. Pursuant to our management contracts, we allocate a portion of our risk management costs, at rates we believe are competitive, to those clients who choose to obtain their insurance coverage by being named as additional insureds under our insurance policies. A material reduction in the number of clients who choose to obtain their insurance coverage from us in that manner could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Additional funds would need to be reserved for future insurance losses if such losses are worse than expected.

We provide liability and worker's compensation insurance coverage consistent with our obligations to our clients under our various management contracts and leases. We are obligated to reimburse our insurance carrier for each loss incurred in the current policy year up to the amount of a deductible specified in our insurance policies. The deductible for our various liability and workers' compensation policies is $250,000. We also purchase property insurance that provides coverage for loss or damage to our property, and in some cases our clients' property, as well as business interruption coverage for lost operating income and certain associated expenses. The deductible applicable to any given loss under our property insurance policy varies based upon the insured values and the peril that causes the loss. Our financial statements reflect our funding of all such obligations based upon guidance and evaluation we have received from third-party insurance professionals. There can be no assurance, however, that the ultimate amount of our obligations will not exceed the amount presently funded or accrued, in which case we would need to set aside additional funds to reserve for any such excess. Our obligations could increase if we receive a greater number of insurance claims or if the severity of, or the administrative costs associated with, those claims generally increases. A material increase in insurance costs due to a change in the number or severity of claims, claims costs or premiums paid by us could have a material adverse effect on our operating income.

Our ability to expand our business will be dependent upon the availability of adequate capital.

The rate of our expansion will depend in part upon the availability of adequate capital, which in turn will depend in large part upon cash flow generated by our business and the availability of equity and debt capital. We believe that we will be able to obtain equity or debt capital on acceptable terms. However, we will require the consent of shareholders holding a majority of shares in order to authorize and issue additional shares of common stock above the current number of shares of authorized capital stock, which may be required in connection with any future acquisitions. In addition, our senior credit facility contains provisions that restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness and/or make substantial investments or acquisitions. As a result, we cannot assure you that we will be able to finance our current growth strategy.

We must comply with public and private regulations that may impose significant costs on us.

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such property. These laws typically impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. In connection with the operation of parking facilities, we may be potentially liable for such costs. In addition, from time to time we are involved in environmental issues at certain of locations or in connection with our operations. While it is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of any of these matters, based on information currently available, management believes that none of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The cost of defending against

claims of liability, or remediation of a contaminated property, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, several state and local laws have been passed in recent years that encourage car pooling and the use of mass transit. Laws and regulations that reduce the number of cars and vehicles being driven could adversely impact our business.

In connection with certain transportation services provided to our clients, including shuttle bus operations, we provide the vehicles and the drivers to operate these transportation services. The U. S. Department of Transportation and various state agencies exercise broad powers over these transportation services, including, licensing and authorizations, safety and insurance requirements. Our employee drivers must also comply with the safety and fitness regulations promulgated by the Department Transportation, including those related to drug and alcohol testing and service hours. We may become subject to new and more restrictive federal and state regulations. Compliance with such regulations could hamper our ability to provide qualified drivers and increase our operating costs.

We are also subject to consumer credit laws and credit card industry rules and regulations relating to the processing of credit card transactions, including the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act and the Payment Card Data Security Standard. This law and these industry standards impose substantial financial penalties for non-compliance. A purported class action was recently filed against us alleging violations of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act. Similar complaints have been filed against many credit card processors.

We collect and remit sales/parking taxes and file tax returns for and on behalf of ourselves and our clients. We are affected by laws and regulations that may impose a direct assessment on us for failure to remit sales/parking taxes and filing of tax returns for ourselves and on behalf of our clients.

We believe that our public and private client base is becoming more concentrated.

Because national property owners, managers and developers and other property management companies tend to own or manage multiple properties, our ability to provide parking services for a large number of properties becomes dependent on our relationships with these entities. As this ownership concentration continues, such clients become more significant to our business. The loss of one of these large clients or the sale of properties they own to clients of our competitors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, large clients with extensive portfolios have greater negotiating power with respect to our management contracts and leases, which could adversely affect our profit margins.

In order to raise additional revenue, a number of state and municipal governments have either sold or entered into long-term leases of public assets or may be contemplating such transactions. The assets that are the subject of such transactions have included government-owned parking garages located in downtown commercial districts and parking operations at airports. The sale or long-term leasing of such government-owned parking assets to our competitors or clients of our competitors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The failure to successfully complete or integrate acquisitions or new contracts could have a negative impact on our business.

We may pursue both small and large acquisitions in our business or in new lines of business on a selective basis, and we may be in discussions or negotiations with one or more of these acquisitions or new contract candidates simultaneously. There can be no assurance that suitable acquisitions or new contract candidates will be identified, that such acquisitions or new contracts will be consummated or that the acquired operations or new contracts will be integrated successfully.

Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including (but not limited to) the following:

Mergers and acquisitions of companies are inherently risky and subject to many factors outside of our control and no assurance can be given that our previous or future acquisitions will be successful and will not materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Failure to manage and successfully integrate acquisitions could materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The sureties for our performance bond program may elect not to provide us with new or renewal performance bonds for any reason.

As is customary in the industry, a surety provider can refuse to provide a bond principal with new or renewal surety bonds. If any existing or future surety provider refuses to provide us with surety bonds, there can be no assurance that we would be able to find alternate providers on acceptable terms, or at all. Our inability to provide surety bonds could also result in the loss of existing contracts. Failure to find a provider of surety bonds, and our resulting inability to bid for new contracts or renew existing contracts, could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

We may be unable to renew our insurance coverage and we do not maintain insurance coverage for all possible risks.

Our liability and worker's compensation insurance coverage expires on an annual basis. There can be no assurance that our insurance carriers will in fact be willing to renew our coverage at any rate at the expiration date. We maintain a comprehensive portfolio of insurance policies to help protect us against loss or damage incurred from a wide variety of insurable risks. Each year, we review with our

professional insurance advisers whether the insurance policies and associated coverages that we maintain are sufficient to adequately protect us from the various types of risk to which we are exposed in the ordinary course of business. That analysis takes into account various pertinent factors such as the likelihood that we would incur a material loss from any given risk as well as the cost of obtaining insurance coverage against any such risk. While we believe that we maintain a comprehensive portfolio of insurance that is consistent with customary business practices and adequately protects us from the risks that we typically face in the ordinary course of our business, there can be no assurance that we may not sustain a material loss for which we do not maintain any, or adequate insurance coverage.

Our business may be harmed as a result of extraordinary natural disasters.

In 2005 Hurricane Katrina caused significant disruption to our operations in New Orleans and the U.S. Gulf Coast region, which adversely impacted our operating results for this region. To the extent that we experience similar weather related events in the U.S. Gulf Coast Region or in other geographical areas where we operate, or experience other extraordinary natural events, such as earthquakes, our operating results may be adversely impacted.

Our business may be harmed as a result of terrorist attacks and the related increase in government regulation of airports and reduced air travel.

Any terrorist attacks, particularly in the United States or Canada, may negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. Attacks have resulted in, and may continue to result in, increased government regulation of airlines and airport facilities, including imposition of minimum distances between parking facilities and terminals, resulting in the elimination of currently managed parking facilities, and increased security checks of employees and passengers at airport facilities. We derive a significant percentage of our gross profit from parking facilities and parking related services in and around airports. For the year ended December 31, 2008, approximately 20% of gross profit was derived from those operations. The Federal Aviation Administration generally prohibits parking within 300 feet of airport terminals during periods of heightened security. While the prohibition is not currently in effect, there can be no assurance that this governmental prohibition will not again be reinstated. The existing regulations governing parking within 300 feet of airport terminals or future regulations may prevent us from using certain parking spaces. Reductions in the number of parking spaces and air travelers may reduce our revenues and cash flow for both our leased facilities and those facilities we operate under management contracts.

Our success is, and will continue to be, substantially dependent upon the continued services of our executive management team. The loss of the services of one or more of the members of our executive management team could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Although we have entered into employment agreements with, and historically have been successful in retaining the services of, our executive management, there can be no assurance that we will be able to retain them in the future. In addition, our continued growth depends upon our ability to attract and retain skilled operating managers and employees.

Competition in the field of parking facility management is intense. The market is fragmented and is served by a variety of entities ranging from single lot operators to large regional and national multi-facility operators, as well as municipal and other governmental entities that choose not to outsource their parking operations. Competitors may be able to adapt more quickly to changes in customer requirements, or devote greater resources to the promotion and sale of their products. Many of our competitors also have long-standing relationships with our clients. Providers of parking facility

management services have traditionally competed on the basis of cost and service. As we have worked to establish ourselves as one of the principal members of the industry, we compete predominately on the basis of high levels of service and strong relationships. We may not be able to, or may choose not to, compete with certain competitors on the basis of price. As a result, a greater proportion of our clients may switch to other service providers or self-manage during an economic downturn.

Approximately 24% of our employees are represented by labor unions. Approximately 29% of our collective bargaining contracts, representing 6% of our employees, are up for renewal in 2009. There can be no assurance that we will be able to renew existing labor union contracts on acceptable terms. Employees could exercise their rights under the labor union contract, which could include a strike or walk-out. In such cases, there are no assurances that we would be able to staff sufficient employees for our short-term needs. Any such labor strike or our inability to negotiate a satisfactory contract upon expiration of the current agreements could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We make contributions to multiemployer benefit plans on behalf of certain employees covered by collective bargaining agreements and could be responsible for paying unfunded liabilities incurred by such benefit plans, which amount could be material.

Economic and demographic trends could materially adversely affect our business.

Our business operations are located in North America and tend to be concentrated in large urban areas. Our business could be materially adversely affected to the extent that economic or demographic factors result in the movement of white-collar jobs from urban centers to suburbs or out of North America entirely, increased office vacancies in urban areas, movement toward home office alternatives, or lower consumer spending or employment levels.

We operate parking facilities in 42 states and the District of Columbia in the United States and three provinces of Canada. We do not currently own any parking facilities. The following table summarizes certain information regarding our facilities as of December 31, 2008:

We have interests in twelve joint ventures, each of which operates between one and twenty-two parking facilities. We are the general partner of three limited partnerships, each of which operates between one and nine parking facilities. For additional information, please see "Management's

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Summary of Operating Facilities."

We lease approximately 24,000 square feet of office space for our corporate offices in Chicago, Illinois. The lease expires in 2013. We have a right of first opportunity on an additional 24,000 square feet. We believe that the leased facility, together with our expansion options, is adequate to meet current and foreseeable future needs.

We also lease regional offices. These lease agreements generally include renewal and expansion options, and we believe that these facilities are adequate to meet our current and foreseeable future needs.

We are subject to various claims and legal proceedings that consist principally of lease and contract disputes. We consider these claims and legal proceedings to be routine and incidental to our business, and in the opinion of management, the ultimate liability with respect to these proceedings and claims will not materially affect our financial position, operations or liquidity.

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Our common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Select Global Market under the symbol "STAN". The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high and low sales prices for our common stock as reported on the NASDAQ Select Global Market and its predecessor, adjusted for the effect of the 2-for-1 stock split in January 2008.

As of March 9, 2009, there were approximately 3,675 holders of our common stock, based on the number of record holders of our common stock and an estimate of the number of individual participants represented by security position listings.

We did not pay a cash dividend in respect of our common stock in 2008 or 2007. By the terms of our senior credit facility, we are restricted from paying cash dividends on our capital stock while such facility is in effect.

There are no restrictions on the ability of our wholly owned subsidiaries to pay cash dividends to us.

The following table contains detail related to the repurchase of common stock by us based on the date of trade during the quarter ended December 31, 2008. (In thousands except share and per share data)

In December 2007, the Board of Directors authorized us to repurchase shares of our common stock, on the open market or through private purchases, up to $25.0 million in aggregate. As of December 31, 2007, $22.9 million remained available for repurchase under this authorization.

In July 2008 the Board of Directors authorized us to repurchase shares of our common stock, on the open market or through private purchases, up to an additional $60.0 million in aggregate.

During the fourth quarter of 2008, we repurchased from third party shareholders 640,348 shares at an average price of $18.34 per share, including average commissions of $0.03 per share, on the open market. Our majority shareholder sold to us 545,683 shares in the fourth quarter at an average price of $18.31 per share. In addition, we repurchased from third party shareholders 24,700 shares at an average price of $18.21 per share, including average commissions of $0.03 per share, on the open market. Our majority shareholder also sold us its pro-rata ownership of a third quarter open market repurchase of 14,904 shares at an average price of $22.63 per share. The total value of the fourth quarter transactions was $22.5 million. 598,212 shares were retired during the fourth quarter of 2008 and the remaining 627,423 shares were held as treasury stock and retired during the first quarter of 2009.

As of December 31, 2008, $22.9 million remained available for repurchase under the July 2008 authorization by the Board of Directors.

The following table presents selected historical consolidated financial data as of December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, derived from our audited consolidated financial statements, which are included elsewhere herein. The table also presents selected historical consolidated financial data as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 derived from our audited consolidated financial statements, which are not included herein.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with the "Selected Financial Data" and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere herein. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth in Item 1A "Risk Factors" and elsewhere herein.

We manage parking facilities in urban markets and at airports across the United States and in three Canadian provinces. We do not own any facilities, but instead enter into contractual relationships with property owners or managers.

We operate our clients' properties through two types of arrangements: management contracts and leases. Under a management contract, we typically receive a base monthly fee for managing the facility, and we may also receive an incentive fee based on the achievement of facility performance objectives. We also receive fees for ancillary services. Typically, all of the underlying revenues and expenses under a standard management contract flow through to our clients rather than to us. However, some management contracts, which are referred to as "reverse" management contracts, usually provide for larger management fees and require us to pay various costs. Under lease arrangements, we generally pay to the property owner either a fixed annual rent, a percentage of gross customer collections or a combination thereof. We collect all revenues under lease arrangements and we are responsible for most operating expenses, but we are typically not responsible for major maintenance, capital expenditures or real estate taxes. Margins for lease contracts vary significantly, not only due to operating performance, but also due to variability of parking rates in different cities and varying space utilization by parking facility type and location. As of December 31, 2008, we operated 90% of our locations under management contracts and 10% under leases.

In evaluating our financial condition and operating performance, management's primary focus is on our gross profit, total general and administrative expense and general and administrative expense as a percentage of our gross profit. Although the underlying economics to us of management contracts and leases are similar, the manner in which we are required to account for them differs. Revenue from leases includes all gross customer collections derived from our leased locations (net of parking tax), whereas revenue from management contracts only includes our contractually agreed upon management fees and amounts attributable to ancillary services. Gross customer collections at facilities under management contracts, therefore, are not included in our revenue. Accordingly, while a change in the proportion of our operating agreements that are structured as leases versus management contracts may cause significant fluctuations in reported revenue and expense of parking services, that change will not artificially affect our gross profit. For example, as of December 31, 2008, 90% of our locations were operated under management contracts and 84% of our gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2008 was derived from management contracts. Only 49% of total revenue (excluding reimbursement of management contract expenses), however, was from management contracts because under those contracts the revenue collected from parking customers belongs to our clients. Therefore, gross profit and total general and administrative expense, rather than revenue, are management's primary focus.

We believe that sophisticated commercial real estate developers and property managers and owners recognize the potential for parking and related services to be a profit generator rather than a cost center. Often, the parking experience makes both the first and the last impressions on their

properties' tenants and visitors. By outsourcing these services, they are able to capture additional profit by leveraging the unique operational skills and controls that an experienced parking management company can offer. Our ability to consistently deliver a uniformly high level of parking and related services and maximize the profit to our clients improves our ability to win contracts and retain existing locations. Our location retention rate for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was 89% and 91%, respectively, which also reflects our decision not to renew, or terminate, unprofitable contracts.

We are also experiencing an increase in our ability to leverage existing relationships to increase the scope of services provided, thereby increasing the profit per location. For the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to the year ended December 31, 2007, we improved average gross profit per location by 2.0% from $40.2 thousand to $41.0 thousand.

We focus our operations in core markets where a concentration of locations improves customer service levels and operating margins. The following table reflects our facilities operated at the end of the years indicated:

We recognize parking services revenue from lease and management contracts as the related services are provided. Substantially all of our revenues come from the following two sources:

Reimbursement of management contract expense consists of the direct reimbursement from the property owner for operating expenses incurred under a management contract.

Gross profit equals our revenue less the cost of generating such revenue. This is the key metric we use to examine our performance because it captures the underlying economic benefit to us of both lease contracts and management contracts.

General and administrative expenses include salaries, wages, payroll taxes, insurance, travel and office related expenses for our headquarters, field offices, supervisory employees, chairman of the board and board of directors.

Depreciation is determined using a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the various asset classes or in the case of leasehold improvements, over the initial term of the operating lease or its useful life, whichever is shorter. Intangible assets determined to have finite lives are amortized over their remaining useful life.

Valuation allowance related to long-term receivables is recorded when there is an extended length of time estimated for collection of long-term receivables.

Parking services revenue—lease contracts. Lease contract revenue increased $9.0 million, or 6.2%, to $154.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $145.3 million in the year-ago period. The increase resulted primarily from our acquisitions, revenue from new locations exceeding decreases in revenue from contract expirations and fewer leased contracts that converted from management contracts during the current year. Same location revenue for those facilities, which as of December 31, 2008 have been operational a minimum of 24 months, increased 2.2%. Revenue associated with contract expirations relates to contracts that expired during the current period. In addition, we recorded $1.4 million in 2008 related to the Hurricane Katrina settlement, which was included in contract expirations.

Parking services revenue—management contracts. Management contract revenue increased $26.2 million, or 21.9%, to $145.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $119.6 million in the year-ago period. The increase resulted primarily from new locations and acquisitions which more than offset the decrease in revenue from contract expirations. Same locations revenue for those facilities, which as of December 31, 2008 have been operational a minimum of 24 months, increased 11.6%. In addition, we recorded $0.2 million related to the Hurricane Katrina settlement, which was included in contract expirations.

Reimbursement of management contract expense. Reimbursement of management contract expenses increased $43.8 million, or 12.3%, to $400.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared

to $356.8 million in the year-ago period. This increase resulted from additional reimbursements for costs incurred on behalf of owners.

Cost of parking services—lease contracts. Cost of parking services for lease contracts increased $10.5 million, or 8.1%, to $140.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $129.6 million in the year-ago period. The increase resulted primarily from new locations and acquisitions which more than offset the decreases in costs from contract expirations and fewer locations that converted from management contracts during the current year. Same locations costs for those facilities which as of December 31, 2008 have been operational a minimum of 24 months increased 4.0%. Same location rent expense for lease contracts increased primarily as a result of contingent rental payments on the increase in revenue for same locations. The increase in other operating costs for lease contracts primarily result from increases in snow removal costs and garage supplies.

Cost of parking services—management contracts. Cost of parking services for management contracts increased $19.6 million, or 39.4%, to $69.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $49.7 million in the year-ago period. The increase resulted primarily from new locations and acquisitions which more than offset the decrease in costs from contract expirations. There was no impact on costs for those management contracts which converted to a lease contract. Same location costs for those facilities, which as of December 31, 2008 have been operational a minimum of

24 months, increased 30.7%. Same location increase in operating expenses for management contracts primarily result from increases in snow removal costs and garage supplies.

Reimbursed management contract expense. Reimbursed management contract expense increased $43.8 million, or 12.3%, to $400.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $356.8 million in the year-ago period. This increase resulted from additional reimbursed cost incurred on the behalf of owners.

Gross profit—lease contracts. Gross profit for lease contracts decreased $1.5 million, or 9.6%, to $14.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $15.7 million in the year-ago period. Gross profit percentage for lease contracts decreased to 9.2% for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to 10.8% in the year-ago period. Gross profit lease contracts decreases on same locations

were primarily the result of increases in other operating costs as described under the cost of parking services lease contracts. Gross profit percentage on acquisitions were higher than our average for lease contracts however, were not sufficient to offset the decline in same locations.

Gross profit—management contracts. Gross profit for management contracts increased $6.6 million, or 9.4%, to $76.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $69.9 million in the year-ago period. Gross profit percentage for management contracts decreased to 52.5% for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to 58.4% in the year-ago period. Gross profit for management contracts increases were primarily the result of our new locations and our acquisitions. Gross profit percentage on same locations accounted for most of the decline on a percentage basis.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $2.8 million, or 6.3%, to $47.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $44.8 million in the year-ago period. This increase resulted from increases in payroll and payroll related expenses of $1.7 million, increases resulting from acquisitions of $1.2 million and a $0.1 decrease in other operating expenses, which included $0.4 million from the Hurricane Katrina settlement.

Interest expense. Interest expense decreased $0.6 million, or 8.4%, to $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, as compared to $7.1 million in the year-ago period. This decrease resulted primarily from the decrease in the borrowing rate on our senior credit facility.

Interest Income. Interest Income decreased $0.4 million, or 66.7%, to $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, as compared to $0.6 million in the year-ago period. This decrease resulted from reduction of repayments received in 2007 for interest bearing guarantor payments related to Bradley International Airport.

Income tax expense. Income tax expense increased $0.3 million, or 2.7%, to $11.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, as compared to $11.3 million in the year-ago period. This increase resulted from taxes on increased earnings partially offset by a reduction in our effective tax rate. The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2008 was 37.9% compared to 39.3% for the year-ago period.

SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information ("SFAS 131"), establishes annual and interim reporting standards for an enterprise's operating segments and related disclosures about its products, services, geographic areas and major customers. An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, and about which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources. The CODM, as defined by SFAS 131, is our President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO").

The Company is managed based on regions administered by executive vice presidents. Three regions are generally organized geographically with the fourth region encompassing major airports and transportation operations nationwide. The following is a summary of revenues (excluding reimbursement of management contract expenses) by region for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. Information related to prior years has been recast to conform to the new region alignment.

Region One encompasses Delaware, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, and Wisconsin.

Region Two encompasses Alabama, British Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Ontario, Tennessee, and Texas.

Region Three encompasses Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.

Region Four encompasses all major airport and transportation operations nationwide.

Other consists of ancillary revenue that is not specifically identifiable to a region and reserve adjustments related to prior years.

The following tables present the material factors that impact our financial statements on an operating segment basis.

Regions one, two and three recorded an increase in new location leases and increases in same location revenue. The client base for region four currently prefers the structure of management contracts to lease contracts, therefore no new lease contracts were operational in 2008 and conversions to leases were less than the prior year. In addition, same location revenue in region four was consistent with the prior year due to the economic impact of reduced travel.

All regions recorded increases in management contract revenue from new locations and same location revenue compared to the prior year. Region four added new services to existing contracts which accounted for the increase in same location revenue.

Region one has the highest proportion of lease contracts and this region covers states that are impacted to a greater extent by weather related costs such as snow removal costs, which are our responsibility.

All regions experienced same location increases in cost that approximated the aggregate amount, with no significant variances between them. The other region amounts in same location costs primarily represent prior year insurance reserve adjustments.

Segment gross profit/gross profit percentage information is summarized as follows:

Gross profit for lease contracts for region three declined primarily due to contract expirations in 2008 that were profitable for us in 2007. Regions one and four experienced declines in same location profit primarily due to the increase in operating costs.

Gross profit for management contracts increased in all operating regions primarily due to the addition of new locations and gross margin from same locations being comparable to the prior year. In addition, acquisitions were a positive contributor to our results. The other region declined in gross profit percentage due to changes in prior years insurance reserve activity.

Segment general and administrative expense information is summarized as follows:

General and administrative expenses on a segment basis represent direct administrative costs for each region. The other region consists primarily of the corporate headquarters. The increase in region one is due primarily to our investment in additional business development infrastructure.

Parking services revenue—lease contracts. Lease contract revenue decreased $8.0 million, or 5.2%, to $145.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $153.3 million in the year-ago period. This decrease resulted from reductions in revenue related to contract expirations and conversions to management contracts, offset by an increase in revenues from new locations, and a $0.6 million non-cash gain related to the sale of a contract right in conjunction with one of the acquisitions completed during the third quarter. Same locations revenue for those facilities which as of December 31, 2007 have been operational a minimum of 24 months increased 5.6%.

Parking services revenue—management contracts. Management contract revenue increased $13.1 million, or 12.3%, to $119.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $106.5 million in the year-ago period. This increase resulted from revenues from new locations, which was partially offset by reductions in revenue attributable to contract expirations. Same location revenue for those facilities which as of December 31, 2007 have been operational a minimum 24 months increased 4.4%.

Reimbursement of management contract expense. Reimbursement of management contract expenses increased $10.7 million, or 3.1%, to $356.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $346.1 million in the year-ago period. This increase resulted from additional reimbursements for costs incurred on the behalf of owners.

The following table presents the material factors that impact our cost of parking services.

Cost of parking services—lease contracts. Cost of parking services for lease contracts decreased $9.4 million, or 6.8%, to $129.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $139.0 million in the year-ago period. This decrease resulted from reductions in costs attributable to contract expirations and conversions to management contracts that were partially offset by an increase in costs from new locations and our acquisitions. Same location cost increased $5.8 million or 5.2%. Rent expense increased due to contingent rental payments, payroll increased less than 1.0% and other operating cost decreased primarily in supplies. In addition, we recorded a favorable change in insurance loss experience reserve estimates relating to prior years of $0.3 million.

Cost of parking services—management contracts. Cost of parking services for management contracts increased $4.7 million, or 10.4%, to $49.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $45.0 million in the year-ago period. This increase resulted from an increase in costs from new reverse management locations and acquisitions, which was partially offset by contract expirations. Same location cost decreased $2.3 million or 6.6%. Increases in payroll and payroll related expenses were offset by decreases in operating expenses, primarily a favorable change in insurance loss experience reserve estimates relating to prior years of $2.5 million.

Reimbursed management contract expense. Reimbursed management contract expenses increased $10.7 million, or 3.1%, to $356.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $346.1 million in the year-ago period. This increase resulted from additional reimbursed costs incurred on the behalf of owners.

Gross profit—lease contracts. Gross profit for lease contracts increased $1.4 million, or 9.8%, to $15.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $14.3 million in the year-ago period. Gross profit percentage for lease contracts increased to 10.8% for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to 9.3% in the year-ago period. This percentage increase was primarily due to decreases in costs related to contract expirations and a $0.6 million non-cash gain related to the sale of a contract right in conjunction with one of the acquisitions completed during the third quarter.

Gross profit—management contracts. Gross profit for management contracts increased $8.4 million, or 13.7%, to $69.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $61.5 million in the year-ago period. Gross profit percentage for management contracts increased to 58.4% for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to 57.7% in the year-ago period. This

percentage increase was primarily due to a favorable change in insurance loss experience reserve estimates relating to prior years.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $3.6 million, or 8.7%, to $44.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $41.2 million for the year-ago period. This increase resulted from increases in payroll and payroll related expenses of $2.7 million, an increase in legal fees of $0.5 million, an increase in consulting fees of $0.2 million, an increase in training and recruiting of $0.3, partially offset by a decrease in other operating expenses of $0.1 million.

Interest expense. Interest expense decreased $1.2 million, or 14.9%, to $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to $8.3 million in the year-ago period. This decrease resulted primarily from the redemption of the 9¹/4% Senior Subordinated Notes, the refinancing of our senior credit facility reduced borrowings under our senior credit facility and a decrease in interest rates.

Interest income. Interest income remained flat at $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

Income tax expense (benefit). Income tax expense increased $26.2 million, to $11.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to a $14.9 million benefit in the year-ago period. In the fourth quarter of 2006 the Company concluded that certain net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets were more likely than not to be realized and accordingly, reversed the valuation allowance by the amount considered recoverable. The increase in income tax expense is based on an effective tax rate of approximately 39% in 2007 compared to a benefit of approximately 71% in 2006. The change in our effective tax rate resulted from our reversal of the valuation allowance at December 31, 2006.

Regions one, two and three recorded an increase in new location leases, and all regions experienced increases in same location revenue at a rate that approximated our average. The client base for region four currently prefers the structure of management contracts to lease contracts, therefore no new lease contracts were operational in 2007.

All regions recorded new business revenue that exceeded any decreases in revenue from contract expirations. Same location revenue increased in all regions with region two recording a 15.5% increase due to several contracts adding ancillary services.

All regions were at or slightly above the prior year in gross profit for lease contracts. The largest increase was in the other region for the reason noted previously. Lease contracts, due to their typically high rent component, will have a lower gross profit percentage; however, they will approximate management contracts in average gross profit per contract dollars.

All regions recorded increases in gross profit for management contracts for the reasons noted previously. Gross profit percentage declines in regions one and four, which had our highest percentages, resulted from expirations of fixed fee contracts that have no cost and adding new locations with a cost component, which we refer to as reverse management contracts.

Segment general and administrative expense information is summarized as follows:

General and administrative expenses on a segment basis represent direct administrative costs for each region. The other region consists primarily of the corporate headquarters. The increase in region three is due primarily to our investment in additional business development infrastructure.

The following table sets forth our unaudited quarterly consolidated statement of income data for the years ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007. The unaudited quarterly information has been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial information and, in management's opinion, includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the information for the quarters presented. Historically, our revenues and operating results have varied from quarter to quarter and are expected to continue to fluctuate in the future. These fluctuations have been due to a number of factors, including: general economic conditions in our markets; additions of contracts; expiration and termination of contracts; conversion of lease contracts to management contracts; conversion of management contracts to lease contracts and changes in terms of contracts that

are retained. The operating results for any historical quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.

On December 31, 2008, we had total indebtedness of approximately $125.1 million, an increase of $44.7 million from December 31, 2007. The $125.1 million includes:

We believe that our cash flow from operations, combined with additional borrowing capacity under our senior credit facility, which amounted to $68.6 million at December 31, 2008, will be sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness, or to fund other liquidity needs. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before their respective maturities. We believe that we will be able to refinance our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms.

On July 15, 2008, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with a group of six banks: Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, issuing lender and as a lender; Wells Fargo Bank N.A., as syndication agent, issuing lender and as a lender; Fifth Third Bank, as a lender; First Hawaiian Bank, as a lender; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as a lender; and U.S. Bank National Association, as a lender. This credit agreement amended and restated our credit facility dated June 29, 2006.

The senior credit facility was increased from $135.0 million to $210.0 million. The $210.0 million revolving credit facility will expire in July 2013. The revolving credit facility includes a letter of credit sub-facility with a sublimit of $50.0 million and a swing line sub-facility with a sublimit of $10.0 million.

The revolving credit facility bears interest, at our option, at either (1) LIBOR plus the applicable LIBOR Margin ranging between 2.00% and 3.50% depending on the ratio of our total funded indebtedness to our EBITDA from time to time ("Total Debt Ratio") or (2) the Base Rate (as defined below) plus the applicable Base Rate Margin ranging between 0.50% and 2.00% depending on our Total Debt Ratio. We may elect interest periods of one, two, three or six months for LIBOR based borrowings. The Base Rate is the greater of (i) the rate publicly announced from time to time by Bank of America, N.A. as its "prime rate", or (ii) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50%.

The senior credit facility includes a fixed charge ratio covenant, a total debt to EBITDA ratio covenant, a limit on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, issue preferred stock or pay dividends, and certain other restrictions on our activities. We are required to repay borrowings under the senior credit facility out of the proceeds of future issuances of debt or equity securities and asset sales, subject to certain customary exceptions. The senior credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets and all assets acquired in the future (including a pledge of 100% of the stock of our existing and future domestic guarantor subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of our existing and future foreign subsidiaries).

Our senior credit facility provides for an event of default if a "Change of Control" occurs. A "Change of Control would be triggered if, among other reasons, someone other than affiliates of our Chairman, John V. Holten, directly or indirectly, becomes the beneficial owner of more than 50% of our common stock. Our parent company, Steamboat Industries LLC, which is controlled by Mr. Holten, has announced its intent to sell a majority (and potentially all or substantially all) of its stake in the Company, and all of Steamboat's Company shares have been pledged to various lenders. To the best of our knowledge and belief, Steamboat intends to sell shares in a manner that will not, and the potential foreclosure by the Steamboat lenders will not, trigger a default under the "Change of Control" provision. Accordingly, we do not believe that any likely transaction involving Steamboat will have any impact on our liquidity, capital resources, and business operations.

At December 31, 2008, we had $20.8 million letters of credit outstanding under the senior credit facility, borrowings against the senior credit facility aggregated $120.6 million and we had $68.6 million available under the senior credit facility.

We use a variable rate senior credit facility to finance our operations. This facility exposes us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. If interest rates increase, interest expense increases and conversely, if interest rates decrease, interest expense also decreases. We believe that it is prudent to limit the exposure of an increase in interest rates.

To meet this objective, we entered into an interest rate cap transaction with Bank of America, N.A. in 2005, allowing us to continue to take advantage of LIBOR based pricing under our Credit Agreement while hedging our interest rate exposure on a portion of our borrowings under the Credit Agreement ("Rate Cap Transaction"). Under the Rate Cap Transaction, we received payments from Bank of America at the end of each quarterly period to the extent that the prevailing three month LIBOR during that period exceeded our cap rate. The Rate Cap Transaction capped our LIBOR rate on a $30.0 million principal balance at 2.5% for a total of 18 months, which matured on July 12, 2006, and for which we recognized a gain of $0.3 million over the life of the cap. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we recognized a gain of $0.2 million which was reported as a reduction of interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income. The Rate Cap Transaction began as of January 12, 2005 and settled each quarter on a date that coincided with our quarterly interest payment dates under the Credit Agreement.

In 2006 we entered into an additional Rate Cap Transaction with Bank of America, which allows us to limit our exposure on a portion of our borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Under this Rate Cap Transaction, we receive payments from Bank of America each quarterly period to the extent that the prevailing three month LIBOR during that period exceeds our cap rate of 5.75%. This Rate Cap Transaction caps our LIBOR interest rate on a notional amount of $50.0 million at 5.75% for a total of 36 months. The Rate Cap Transaction began as of August 4, 2006 and settles each quarter on a date that coincides with our quarterly interest payment dates under the Credit Agreement. This Rate Cap Transaction is classified as a cash flow hedge, and we calculate the effectiveness of the hedge on a quarterly basis. The ineffective portion of the cash flow hedge is recognized in current period earnings as an increase of interest expense.

At December 31, 2008, the fair value of the Rate Cap Transaction was immaterial. Total changes in the fair value of the Rate Cap Transaction at December 31, 2008 was $0.3 million, of which $0.2 million was recorded as an increase of interest expense in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2008. $0.1 million of this change was due to hedge ineffectiveness.

At December 31, 2007, the fair value of the Rate Cap Transaction was immaterial. Total changes in the fair value of the Rate Cap Transaction as of December 31, 2007 was $0.3 million, of which $0.1 million was reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, on the consolidated balance sheet. $0.1 million and $42 thousand of this change was recorded as an increase of interest expense in the consolidated statement of income for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes.

At December 31, 2008, we have provided letters of credit totaling $18.4 million to our casualty insurance carriers to collateralize our casualty insurance program.

As of December 31, 2008, we provided $2.4 million in letters of credit to collateralize other obligations.

Pursuant to our obligations with respect to the parking garage operations at Bradley International Airport, we are required to make certain payments for the benefit of the State of Connecticut and for holders of special facility revenue bonds. The deficiency payments represent contingent interest bearing advances to the trustee to cover operating cash flow requirements. The payments, if any, are recorded as a receivable by us for which we are reimbursed from time to time as provided in the trust agreement. As of December 31, 2008, we have a receivable of $6.0 million, comprised of cumulative deficiency payments to the trustee, net of reimbursements. We believe these advances to be fully recoverable and therefore have not recorded a valuation allowance for them. We do not guarantee the payment of any principal or interest on any debt obligations of the State of Connecticut or the trustee.

We made deficiency payments (net of repayments received) of $1.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to receiving repayments (net of deficiency payments) of $0.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2007. In addition, we received $18 thousand on deficiency repayments from the trustee for premium income in the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to $0.4 million for interest and premium income in the year ended December 31, 2007. (See Note O to our consolidated financial statements)

We incurred no new capital lease obligations for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to $30 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2007.

We have minimum lease commitments of $32.0 million for fiscal 2009. The leased properties generate sufficient cash flow to meet the base rent payment.

As a result of day-to-day activity at our parking locations, we collect significant amounts of cash. Lease contract revenue is generally deposited into our local bank accounts, with a portion remitted to our clients in the form of rental payments according to the terms of the leases. Under management contracts, some clients require us to deposit the daily receipts into one of our local bank accounts, with the cash in excess of our operating expenses and management fees remitted to the clients at negotiated intervals. Other clients require us to deposit the daily receipts into client accounts and the clients then reimburse us for operating expenses and pay our management fee subsequent to month-end. Some clients require a segregated account for the receipts and disbursements at locations. Our working capital and liquidity may be adversely affected if a significant number of our clients require us to deposit all parking revenues into their respective accounts.

Our liquidity also fluctuates on an intra-month and intra-year basis depending on the contract mix and timing of significant cash payments. Additionally, our ability to utilize cash deposited into our local accounts is dependent upon the availability and movement of that cash into our corporate account. For all these reasons, from time to time, we carry a significant cash balance, while also utilizing our senior credit facility.

Our primary sources of funds are cash flows from operating activities and changes in working capital. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $29.3 million for 2008, compared to $36.3 million for 2007. Cash provided during 2008 included $34.0 million from operations which was offset by a net decrease in working capital of $4.7 million. Notes and accounts receivable increased by $4.6 million, which primarily related to an increase in business from new locations and our acquisitions. Other assets increased by $3.0 million which primarily related to deposits made in conjunction with new business proposals that are refundable and advances to clients for their facility improvements that are reimbursed to us over a contractual term. Accounts payable increased by $3.5 million, which primarily resulted from the timing on payments to our clients and new business that are under management contracts as described under "Daily Cash Collections". Other liabilities decreased by $1.0 million, which primarily related to accrued rent that decreased due to conversions to management contracts, new contract terms that lowered the contingency rent amount for a higher fixed amount and timing of payment obligations.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $36.3 million for 2007, compared to $28.8 million for 2006. Cash provided during 2007 included $30.9 million from operations and a net increase in working capital of $5.3 million. Notes and accounts receivable increased by $2.7 million, which primarily related to an increase in business from new locations and our acquisitions. Other assets increased by $2.2 million, which primarily related to the implementation of a non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Accounts payable increased by $9.4 million, of which $6.2 million is the result of timing on payments to our clients that are under management contracts as described under "Daily Cash Collections" and $3.2 million is timing on trade accounts payable and additional volume due to new business. Other liabilities increased by $1.3 million, which primarily relates to an increase in accrued insurance due to insurance reserves for our casualty program.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $13.0 million in 2008 compared to $10.7 million in 2007. Cash used in investing activities for 2008 included business acquisitions of $6.3 million, capital expenditures of $6.3 million for capital investments needed to secure and/or extend lease facilities, investment in information system enhancements and infrastructure, cost of contract purchases of $0.6 million and $0.1 million for contingent payments on previously acquired contracts, which was partially offset by $0.3 million of proceeds from the sale of assets.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $10.7 million in 2007 compared to $2.3 million in 2006. Cash used in investing activities for 2007 included business acquisitions of $6.2 million, capital expenditures of $4.5 million for capital investments needed to secure and/or extend leased facilities, investment in information system enhancements and infrastructure and $0.1 million for contingent payments on previously acquired contracts, which was partially offset by $0.1 million of proceeds from the sale of assets.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $16.0 million in 2008 compared to $25.5 million in 2007. Cash used in financing activities for 2008 included $60.0 million used to repurchase our common stock, $2.3 million used for payments of debt issuance costs, $1.6 million used for payments on capital leases, $0.1 million used for payments on other long-term borrowings, offset by $46.4 million in proceeds from our senior credit facility, $0.7 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and $0.9 million in excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $25.5 million in 2007 compared to $29.3 million in 2006. Cash used in financing activities for 2007 included $22.1 million to repurchase our common stock, $2.9 million in payments on the senior credit facility, $2.3 million for payments on capital leases, $0.1 million on debt issuance costs and $0.1 million for cash used on other long-term borrowings, which was partially offset by $1.0 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and $1.0 million in excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises.

We had cash and cash equivalents of $8.3 million at December 31, 2008, compared to $8.5 million at December 31, 2007 and $8.1 million at December 31, 2006. The cash balances reflect our ability to utilize funds deposited into our local accounts and which based upon availability, timing of deposits and the subsequent movement of that cash into our corporate accounts may result in significant changes to our cash balances.

Summary Disclosures About Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

The following summarizes certain of our contractual obligations at December 31, 2008 and the effect such obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flow in future periods. The

nature of our business is to manage parking facilities. As a result, we do not have significant short-term purchase obligations.

In addition we made contingent earnout payments of $0.3 million, $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the years ended 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and we made deficiency payments related to Bradley of $2.2 million, $0.7 million and $0.4 million for the years ended 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. No amounts have been included on the above schedule related to those payments for future periods as the amounts, if any, are not presently determinable.

"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accounting estimates are an integral part of the preparation of the financial statements and the financial reporting process and are based upon current judgments. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their complexity and the possibility that future events affecting them may differ materially from our current judgments and estimates.

This listing of critical accounting policies is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, with no need for

management's judgment regarding accounting policy. We believe that of our significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity:

As of December 31, 2008, our net long-lived assets were comprised primarily of $17.5 million of property, equipment and leasehold improvements and $10.9 million of contract and lease rights. In accounting for our long-lived assets, other than goodwill, we apply the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." We account for goodwill and other intangible assets under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." As of December 31, 2008, we had $123.6 million of goodwill.

The determination and measurement of an impairment loss under these accounting standards require the significant use of judgment and estimates. The determination of fair value of these assets utilizes cash flow projections that assume certain future revenue and cost levels, assumed discount rates based upon current market conditions and other valuation factors, all of which involve the use of significant judgment and estimation. For the years ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 we were not required to record any impairment charges related to long-lived assets or to goodwill. Future events may indicate differences from our judgments and estimates which could, in turn, result in impairment charges in the future. Future events that may result in impairment charges include increases in interest rates, which would impact discount rates, unfavorable economic conditions or other factors which could decrease revenues and profitability of existing locations and changes in the cost structure of existing facilities. Factors that could potentially have an unfavorable economic effect on our judgments and estimates include, among others: changes imposed by governmental and regulatory agencies, such as property condemnations and assessment of parking-related taxes; construction or other events that could change traffic patterns; and terrorism or other catastrophic events.

We purchase comprehensive casualty insurance (including, without limitation, general liability, garage-keepers legal liability, worker's compensation and umbrella/excess liability insurance) covering certain claims that occur at parking facilities we lease or manage. Under our various liability and workers' compensation insurance policies, we are obligated to reimburse the insurance carrier for the first $250,000 of any loss. As a result, we are, in effect, self-insured for all claims up to the deductible levels. We apply the provisions of SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, in determining the timing and amount of expense recognition associated with claims against us. The expense recognition is based upon our determination of an unfavorable outcome of a claim being deemed as probable and reasonably estimated, as defined in SFAS No. 5. This determination requires the use of judgment in both the estimation of probability and the amount to be recognized as an expense. We utilize historical claims experience along with regular input from third party insurance advisors and actuaries in determining the required level of insurance reserves. Future information regarding historical loss experience may require changes to the level of insurance reserves and could result in increased expense recognition in the future.

We report accounts receivable, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, to represent our estimate of the amount that ultimately will be realized in cash. Management reviews the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends, aging of receivables, and a review of specific accounts, and makes adjustments in the allowance as necessary. Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances could have an impact on the collection of existing receivable balances or future allowance considerations.

We use the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, to account for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We have certain net operating loss carry forwards which expire between 2021 and 2024. Our ability to fully utilize these net operating losses to offset taxable income is limited due to the change in ownership resulting from the initial public offering (Internal Revenue Code Section 382). We consider a number of factors in our assessment of the recoverability of our net operating loss carryforwards including their expiration dates, the limitations imposed due to the change in ownership as well as future projections of income. Future changes in our operating performance along with these considerations may significantly impact the amount of net operating losses ultimately recovered, and our assessment of their recoverability.

We are subject to litigation in the normal course of our business. We apply the provisions of SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, in determining the timing and amount of expense recognition associated with legal claims against us. Management uses guidance from internal and external legal counsel on the potential outcome of litigation in determining the need to record liabilities for potential losses and the disclosure of pending legal claims.

In addition to any litigation that may arise in connection with insured matters, we are subject to various claims and legal proceedings that consist principally of lease and contract disputes. We consider these claims and legal proceedings to be routine and incidental to our business, and in the opinion of management, the ultimate liability with respect to these proceedings and claims will not materially affect our financial position, operations or liquidity.

Our primary market risk exposure consists of risk related to changes in interest rates. We use a variable rate senior credit facility to finance our operations. This facility exposes us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. If interest rates increase, interest expense increases and conversely, if interest rates decrease, interest expense also decreases. We believe that it is prudent to limit the exposure of an increase in interest rates.

In 2006 we entered into an additional Rate Cap transaction with Bank of America, which allows us to limit our exposure on a portion of our borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Under this Rate Cap Transaction, we receive payments from Bank of America each quarterly period to the extent that the prevailing three month LIBOR during that period exceeds our cap rate of 5.75%. This Rate Cap Transaction caps our LIBOR interest rate on a notional amount of $50.0 million at 5.75% for a total of 36 months. The Rate Cap Transaction began as of August 4, 2006 and settles each quarter on a date that coincides with our quarterly interest payment dates under the Credit Agreement. This Rate Cap Transaction is classified as a cash flow hedge, and we calculate the effectiveness of the hedge on a quarterly basis. The ineffective portion of the cash flow hedge is recognized in current period earnings as an increase of interest expense.

We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes.

Our $210.0 million senior credit facility provides for a $210.0 million variable rate revolving facility. In addition, the credit facility includes a letter of credit sub-facility with a sublimit of $50.0 million and swing line sub-facility with a sublimit of $10.0 million. Interest expense on such borrowing is sensitive to changes in the market rate of interest. If we were to borrow the entire $220.0 million available under the facility, a 1% increase in the average market rate would result in an increase in our annual interest expense of $2.20 million.

This amount is determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical interest rates on our borrowing cost, but does not consider the effects of the reduced level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment. Due to the uncertainty of the specific changes and their possible effects, the foregoing sensitivity analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.

Our exposure to foreign exchange risk is minimal. All foreign investments are denominated in U.S. dollars, with the exception of Canada. We had approximately $1.3 million of Canadian dollar denominated cash instruments at December 31, 2008. We had no Canadian dollar denominated debt instruments at December 31, 2008. We do not hold any hedging instruments related to foreign currency transactions. We monitor foreign currency positions and may enter into certain hedging instruments in the future should we determine that exposure to foreign exchange risk has increased.

The financial statements required by this Item are attached to and are hereby incorporated into this Report.

As of the end of the period covered by this annual report, our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and corporate controller carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon their evaluation, our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and corporate controller concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective and designed to ensure that material information relating to us (including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods.

There were no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or any other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation referred to above.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and corporate controller, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee on Sponsoring Organization of the Treadway Commission ("COSO Framework"). Based on our evaluation under the COSO Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2008.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 has been audited by Ernst & Young, LLP, an independent registered certified public accounting firm, as stated in their attestation report, which is included herein.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.

The Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee consists of three directors: Karen M. Garrison (who serves as Chair), John V. Holten and A. Petter Østberg. Ms. Garrison is the only independent director on this committee.

The Compensation Committee consists of four directors: Charles L. Biggs (who serves as Chair), John V. Holten, Leif F. Onarheim and A. Petter Østberg. Messrs. Biggs and Onarheim are the independent directors on this committee.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors, executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of beneficial ownership of the common stock and reports of changes in their beneficial ownership and to furnish us with copies of those reports.

To our knowledge, based solely upon a review of copies of reports furnished to us or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during 2006, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and 10% stockholders were met in a timely manner, except in the following instances: Karl G. Andren filed a Form 3 late upon becoming a director, and he also filed one Form 4 late reporting one transaction.

We have adopted a code of ethics as part of our compliance program. The code of ethics applies to our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and corporate controller. In addition we have adopted a code of business conduct that applies to all of our officers and employees. Any amendments to, or waivers from, our code of ethics will be posted on our website www.standardparking.com. A copy of these codes of conduct and ethics will be provided to you without charge upon request to investor_relations@standardparking.com.

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which our security holders nominate directors.

Our Compensation Discussion and Analysis discusses the principles underlying our executive compensation decisions and the most important factors relevant to an analysis of these decisions. It provides qualitative information regarding the manner and context in which compensation is awarded to and earned by our named executive officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table, and places in perspective the data presented in the tables and other quantitative information that follows this section.

Our Compensation Committee has administered our executive compensation program since this Committee was established in conjunction with our initial public offering in June 2004. Broadly stated, the Compensation Committee's overall role is to oversee all of our compensation plans and policies, administer our equity plans and policies, approve equity grants to our executive officers and review and approve all compensation decisions relating to the named executive officers.

Historically, we have employment agreements with all of our named executive officers. It is customary in the parking industry for senior executives to have employment agreements because it encourages employment continuity and is a practical means to insure that client relationships are protected through the legal enforcement of protective covenants, including the covenant not to compete and the covenant not to solicit customers and employees. Moreover, these agreements were created in part to ensure executive continuity since until 2007 we had no programs with substantial executive retention value through the creation of forfeiture risk (e.g., pension plan, restricted stock, etc.). Hence, executive retention and protection of our interests have been created in part through the use of employment agreements.

We account for the equity compensation expense for our employees under the rules of SFAS 123R, which we adopted as of January 1, 2006 and which requires us to estimate and record an expense for each award of equity compensation over the service period of the award. Accounting rules also require us to record cash compensation as an expense at the time the obligation is accrued. It is not anticipated that any executive officer's annual cash compensation will exceed $1 million, and we accordingly have not made any plans to qualify for any compensation deductions under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

With the Compensation Committee's concurrence, management engaged Watson Wyatt Worldwide in the later part of 2008 to determine the relationship of our pay practices to those of other companies, with emphasis on both "peer group" companies and comparably sized businesses. The Watson Wyatt study, which was presented to the Compensation Committee in December 2008, concluded, among other things, as follows:

Our current executive compensation programs are intended to achieve three fundamental objectives: (1) attract and retain qualified key executives, many of whom are responsible for developing, nurturing and maintaining the client relationships that are critical to our business; (2) motivate performance to achieve specific strategic and operating objectives of our Company; and (3) align executives' interests with the long-term interests of our stockholders. As described in more detail below, the material elements of our current executive compensation program for named executive officers include a base salary, an annual bonus opportunity in the form of the Management Incentive Compensation Program, perquisites and personal benefits, a long-term equity incentive opportunity, retirement benefits, severance protection for certain terminations of the named executive officers' employment and other post-termination benefits payable upon retirement, death or disability.

We believe that each element of our executive compensation program helps us to achieve one or more of our compensation objectives. The table below lists each material element of our executive compensation program and the compensation objective or objectives that it is designed to achieve.

As illustrated by the table above, base salaries, perquisites and personal benefits, retirement benefits and severance and other termination benefits are all primarily intended to attract and retain qualified executives. These are the elements of our current executive compensation program where the value of the benefit in any given year is not dependent on performance. We believe that in order to attract and retain top-caliber executives, we need to provide them with predictable benefit amounts that reward the executive's continued service. Some of the elements, such as base salaries and perquisites and personal benefits, are generally paid out on a short-term or current basis. The other elements are generally paid out on a longer-term basis such as upon retirement or other termination of employment. We believe that this mix of longer-term and short-term components allows us to achieve our dual goals of attracting and retaining executives.

Our annual bonus opportunity is primarily intended to motivate named executive officers' performance to achieve specific strategies and operating objectives, although we also believe it helps us attract and retain executives. Our LTIP restricted stock and cash award program and our successor career restricted stock unit program, as described below, are primarily intended to align named executive officers' long-term interests with stockholders' long-term interests, although we also believe it

will help motivate performance and help us attract and retain executives. These are the elements of our current executive compensation program that are designed to reward performance and the creation of stockholder value, and therefore the value of these benefits is dependent on performance. Each named executive officer's annual bonus opportunity is paid out on an annual short-term basis and is designed to reward performance for that period. LTIP compensation, which may include the award of restricted stock units or restricted stock, is generally paid out or earned on a longer-term basis and is designed to reward performance over several years or longer.

As discussed above, our Compensation Committee believes that the compensation of our named executive officers must be closely aligned with our performance, on both a short and long-term basis, at responsible levels that are consistent with our cost-conscious culture. The changes made in the structure of our plans in 2007 and 2008 have further aligned the interests of management with those of stockholders. At the same time, the Committee recognizes that our compensation programs must be designed to attract and retain key executives, many of whom are responsible for developing, nurturing and maintaining the client relationships that are important to producing superior results for our stockholders.

For benchmarking purposes, the Compensation Committee believes that the most reasonable approach is to evaluate our pay practices for senior executives against that of general industry, regressed for the size of the organization. General industry data has been culled from multiple survey databases, including the 2008/2009 Watson Wyatt Top Management Survey, the 2008 Mercer Executive Compensation Survey and two proprietary surveys covering top management in service industries. We do not believe that it is appropriate to establish compensation levels based primarily on other parking companies for several reasons:

Given the information obtained from the current and previous compensation studies, the Committee has informally adopted a guideline that targets total cash compensation in the 50th percentile range for executive officers when benchmarked to general industry data. This range, however, is merely a guideline because the Committee does not believe in fixing compensation levels based only on benchmarking. The Committee believes that other factors should be considered and weighted appropriately, including, but not limited to, the history underlying our current compensation levels, relative compensation levels among our senior executives, pay levels in the parking industry, as well as our overall performance in relation to the performance of other parking companies. The Company's actual cash compensation practice is at the market median.

We manage our pay structure and make compensation decisions using a combination of policies, practices and inherent logic. We have a "pay for performance" culture as exemplified by our management of salaries, bonus compensation and equity compensation. Base salaries typically are adjusted to provide cost of living increases, and our executives' true upside potential has been provided through bonus and stock option or other stock award opportunities available under our annual cash and long-term incentive plans. This philosophy and approach are strengthened by our increased use of benchmark data during the base salary, annual bonus and long-term compensation review process.

Our compensation to the named executive officers consists primarily of the following elements: base salary, management incentive compensation, perquisites and personal benefits, long-term incentive plan compensation, retirement benefits and deferred compensation opportunities and severance and other benefits upon termination of employment or a change in control.

Base salary is a critical element of named executive officer compensation because it is the source of their consistent income stream and is the most visible barometer of evaluation vis-à-vis the employment market. In establishing and reviewing base salaries, the Compensation Committee considers various factors that include the executive's qualifications and experience, scope of responsibilities, internal pay equity, past performance and achievements, future expectations that include the executive's ability to impact short- and long-term results, as well as the salary practices at other comparable companies. We strive to provide our named executive officers with a competitive base salary that is in line with their roles and responsibilities when compared to companies of comparable size. In April 2008, three of the named executive officers received cost of living increases to their base salaries, one named executive officer received a merit base salary increase and the base salary of one named executive officer was increased in lieu of a car allowance. Given the continuing deterioration in both the U.S. and Canadian economies in the later part of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, we have frozen base salaries for all named executive officers and other salaried employees for 2009.

Our named executive officers, other than Mr. Holten, participate in our Management Incentive Compensation Program, which provides for an annual incentive bonus. Our Compensation Committee oversees this program, and it creates annual performance criteria that are flexible and that change with the needs of our business. By creating target awards and setting performance objectives at the beginning of each fiscal year, our named executive officers have the proper incentives to attain the key performance metrics in the business.

In 2008 our Chief Executive Officer's target incentive bonus opportunity was $150,000 for achieving the pre-established, planned, pre-tax net income goal of $30,850,659. Threshold payments (5% of the target award) were eligible to be made commencing at 80% of the pre-tax net income goal and the maximum award opportunity was 185% ($277,500) of the target based on exceeding the pre-tax net income goal by 25% or more. In 2007, our Chief Executive Officer's target incentive bonus opportunity was $150,000 for achieving the pre-established, planned, pre-tax net income goal of $25,013,631. Threshold payments (5% of the target award) were eligible to be made commencing at 80% of the pre-tax net income goal and the maximum award opportunity was 185% ($277,500) of the target based on exceeding the pre-tax net income goal by 25% or more.

Messrs. Warshauer, Wolf and Baumann also participate in the Management Incentive Compensation Program and had a target bonus opportunity of $91,800, $95,000 and $137,475, respectively, in 2008. For Mr. Warshauer, the goals included attainment of the budgeted corporate EBITDA (50%), budgeted divisional pre-tax net income (30%), location retention (10%) and audit results (10%). For Messrs. Wolf and Baumann, the goals are budgeted corporate EBITDA (75%) and cost center budget management (25%). The target bonus opportunities for Messrs. Baumann, Wolf and Warshauer were $91,800, $76,979 and $124,692, respectively, in 2007. The maximum award opportunity as a percentage of the total target opportunity for Mr. Warshauer was less than that for Messrs. Baumann and Wolf because two of the four metrics applicable to Mr. Warshauer's bonus opportunity (location retention and audit results) by their nature did not provide for greater than 100% attainment, whereas both of the metrics comprising Messrs. Baumann's and Wolf's total bonus

opportunities by their nature allowed for greater than 100% attainment. The percentage of target bonus opportunity earned by Messrs. Warshauer, Wolf and Baumann based on the level of goal attainment achieved varied from 108% to 114% in 2007, and from 83% to 102% in 2008.

We believe that the pre-tax income measure for our Chief Executive Officer and an EBITDA measure for the other named executive officers that participate in the program are appropriate measures of performance at this time. These measures may evolve and ultimately be modified as circumstances warrant, including possible adjustments due to acquisitions and other atypical events. The fixed goals for the named executive officers are all metric driven and do not involve subjective assessment. With the exception of Mr. Baumann, whose target opportunity is based on a percentage of his base salary, the other participating executives' target bonus opportunities are fixed and subject to change only via approval of the Compensation Committee.

In addition to base salaries and annual bonus opportunities, we provide our named executive officers with certain perquisites and personal benefits, including 2008 automobile-related expenses for Mr. Warshauer. We believe that perquisites are often a way to provide the named executive officers with additional annual compensation that supplements their base salaries and bonus opportunities. When determining each named executive officer's base salary, we take the value of each named executive officer's perquisites and personal benefits into consideration.

The perquisites and personal benefits paid to each named executive officer in 2008 are reported in column (i) of the Summary Compensation Table, below, and further described in the footnotes thereto.

In 2007 the Compensation Committee adopted a LTIP performance restricted stock and cash award program for our named executive officers other than Mr. Holten. When the LTIP restricted stock and cash award program was originally adopted, it was contemplated that a new three-year performance cycle would commence every calendar year, beginning in 2007. However, our shareholders approved an amendment to our Long-Term Incentive Plan at our 2008 Annual Meeting that increased the number of shares of common stock available for award thereunder, and the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors approved a one-time grant of career restricted stock units that were awarded to the members of our senior management team on July 1, 2008 in lieu of any further incentive compensation pursuant to the LTIP performance restricted stock and cash award program for cycles that otherwise would have started in 2008 and thereafter. Accordingly, the only performance cycle implemented under the LTIP performance restricted stock and cash award program will be the single performance cycle spanning the period from 2007 through 2009.

An overview of the underlying objectives and details of the July 1, 2008 one-time grant of career restricted stock units is as follows:

As noted above, the LTIP performance restricted stock and cash award program will continue only though the first cycle (2007-09). This program provides our named executive officers (other than Mr. Holten) with the opportunity to earn a combination of stock (50%) and cash (50%) if certain three-year performance targets for pre-tax net income and pre-tax free cash flow are achieved. The executive was issued performance-restricted stock at the commencement of the performance cycle that becomes free of restrictions upon the achievement of the performance goals. In this way, the executive has the opportunity to benefit from any share appreciation during the performance period. For the three-year performance cycle, the maximum potential award is $150,000 for our Chief Executive Officer and $60,000 for any of our other participating named executive officers, while the target award is $100,000 for the Chief Executive Officer and $40,000 for the participating named executive officers. The percentage of target award upon which the restrictions have lapsed, through the second year of the performance cycle is 60%.

This performance restricted stock and cash award program became operational starting in 2007 and the targets have been set for the 2007 - 2009 performance cycle. Concurrently with the adoption of this program, we have established stock ownership guidelines for the named executive officers providing that 50% of any stock earned under the program will be retained by the executive while he is in our employ. The plan also provides that if the executive violates any of the protective covenants in his employment contract, including the covenant not to compete or the covenant not to solicit customers, the executive will forfeit any restricted stock awards granted, together with any restricted stock awards as to which the restrictions lapsed, during the three-year period prior to such violation.

In determining the number of any options or shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units that may be granted to named executive officers, the Compensation Committee takes into account the individual's position, scope of responsibility, ability to affect the profitability of the business as well as long-term stockholder value. All option or stock grants are issued so the grant price reflects the market value on the date of grant.

Deferred compensation is a tax-advantaged means of providing certain named executive officers with additional compensation that supplements their base salaries and bonus opportunities, including our 401(k) plan. In addition, we have entered into various agreements over the years with certain named executive officers that provide for various retirement benefits and deferred compensation opportunities. These plans grew out of a perceived need to provide some form of retirement income to executives and are intended to provide a modest payment towards retirement.

Mr. Wilhelm is a party to a Deferred Compensation Agreement with us dated August 1, 1999, which we refer to as a supplemental early retirement plan ("SERP"). This SERP provides him with an annual retirement benefit equal to $112,500 to begin upon his retirement at age 65 and to continue for a period of 15 years thereafter or, if earlier, until his death. If Mr. Wilhelm's employment with us is terminated (other than as a result of his disability) prior to his attaining age 65, he shall not be entitled to any payments under the SERP.

Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Baumann's employment agreement, we have agreed to pay the premiums on certain insurance policies owned by Mr. Baumann that will provide an annual cash benefit to him for a period of 15 years, beginning in the year in which Mr. Baumann attains age 65. The current amount of the annual premium is $78,228. If Mr. Baumann's employment is terminated (other than for cause or other than by Mr. Baumann without good reason), we will continue to pay the premiums on the insurance policies until the earlier of Mr. Baumann's death or his attainment of age 65.

Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Wolf's employment agreement, starting January 1, 2004, we have agreed to pay $62,000 in premiums annually on certain insurance policies or other investment vehicles owned by Mr. Wolf. Our obligation to pay that amount each year shall continue until the earlier of 2014 or Mr. Wolf's death.

In general, the employment agreements of the named executive officers have provisions that are triggered if they are terminated for various reasons. Please see the "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-in-Control" section below for a description of the potential payments that may be made to the named executive officers in connection with their termination of employment or a change-in-control. In addition, our Board has the discretion to accelerate the vesting of unvested options or restricted stock awards in the event of a change in control.

Mr. Wilhelm's 2008 compensation was governed largely by his employment agreement with us. Under that agreement, Mr. Wilhelm earned a salary of $618,635 in fiscal 2008. Under our Management Incentive Compensation Program, Mr. Wilhelm earned $172,800 for 2008. We also granted 104,000 RSUs to Mr. Wilhelm in 2008 under our Long-Term Incentive Plan. Additionally, as a result of the attainment of the cumulative second year performance targets for pre-tax free cash flow and net income under the LTIP performance restricted stock and cash award program, restrictions were

removed from 1,040 shares of performance restricted stock previously awarded to Mr. Wilhelm, and Mr. Wilhelm received $20,000 in cash. Our liability for Mr. Wilhelm's SERP benefit increased by $45,626 during fiscal 2008, and our total liability under this SERP is $560,780 as of December 31, 2008. Other compensation, including perquisites, totaled $40,208.

Our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Administrative Officer and Senior Vice President of Human Resources regularly and routinely work with our Compensation Committee throughout the year, with input as appropriate from our outside legal counsel as well as from our outside compensation consultants, Watson Wyatt Worldwide, to assist the Committee in addressing and discharging its duties and obligations under its Charter. Our Chief Executive Officer plays an integral and instrumental role in making specific recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding the compensation for all of the named executive officers other than the Chairman or the Chief Executive Officer himself. The compensation of our Chairman and our Chief Executive Officer is decided by our Board of Directors.

We entered into an employment agreement with John V. Holten in May 2004 to serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors. This employment agreement was automatically extended for an additional four-year term commencing in May 2009. Under this contract, Mr. Holten received a base salary of $456,221 in fiscal 2008. Although he is eligible for an annual bonus and equity awards, none was awarded in 2008. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Holten and an entity controlled by him received other payments totaling $213,925, the vast majority of which related to personal secretarial assistance and use of an executive office. Mr. Holten's total compensation in 2008 was $670,146.

All of our other named executive officers have entered into employment agreements with us, and their compensation is governed largely by their respective agreements. The annual salary for each as of March 1, 2009 was as follows: Mr. Warshauer—$429,666, Mr. Wolf—$382,606 and Mr. Baumann—$401,921. Mr. Warshauer received a 1.66% base salary increase in 2009 that reflected solely the addition of a separate annual car allowance that has been discontinued. Awards made to these three executives for 2008 under the Management Incentive Compensation Program, based on their individual achievement of their respective performance goals, ranged from $76,079 to $140,369. Messrs. Warshauer, Wolf and Baumann were each awarded 42,000 RSUs under our Long-Term Incentive Plan on July 1, 2008. Mr. Baumann received $80,988 for certain retirement benefits as described in the "Retirement Benefits and Deferred Compensation Opportunities" section above and for a separate life insurance premium payment. Mr. Wolf received $62,690 for certain retirement benefits as described in the "Retirement Benefits and Deferred Compensation Opportunities" section above and for certain long-term disability insurance benefits.

Due to the continuing deterioration in both the U.S. and Canadian economies in the later part of 2008 and early 2009, we have frozen salary levels for all named executive officers and other salaried employees for 2009. The annual target bonus opportunities for the named executive officers are either fixed by agreement or a function of the salary level and in either case will be maintained at 2008 levels. Additionally, we do not expect to make any additional awards under the Long-Term Incentive Plan in 2009.

After considering all components of the compensation paid to the named executive officers, the Compensation Committee has determined that the compensation is reasonable and not excessive. In making this determination, the Compensation Committee considered many factors, including:

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has reviewed and discussed with management the foregoing "Compensation Discussion and Analysis," and based on such review and discussion, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" be included in this Form 10-K for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The following table sets forth the compensation earned, awarded or paid for services rendered to us in all capacities for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 by our Principal Executive Officer (PEO), Principal Financial Officer (PFO) and the three other highest paid executive officers other than the PEO and PFO. These persons are referred to, collectively, as the "named executive officers."

Mr. Wilhelm. We entered into an Amended and Restated Executive Employment Agreement with Mr. Wilhelm on January 28, 2009 to replace his August, 1, 1999 employment agreement, which having been amended seven times had become a cumbersome document. The material changes in the amended and restated agreement as compared to the original agreement include certain commitments by us to Mr. Wilhelm provided that his employment continues until he attains the age of 58. Those commitments include our obligation, from and after the time of termination of Mr. Wilhelm's employment until he attains age 65, (i) to continue providing, at our expense, health insurance coverage for Mr. Wilhelm and his wife, and (ii) to pay certain insurance premiums related to Mr. Wilhelm's supplemental executive retirement benefits. In addition, the amended and restated agreement adjusts the period of Mr. Wilhelm's non-competition obligations from 60 months to 18 months if his employment is terminated for cause or performance reasons, or by reason of his voluntary resignation or disability, in order to correspond with the period over which salary continuation payments are made in those cases. The period of Mr. Wilhelm's non-competition obligations remains at five years in the event his employment is terminated for any other reason.

Mr. Wilhelm's annual salary is governed by his employment agreement. His annual salary as of March 1, 2009 is $624,576.

Messrs. Warshauer, Wolf and Baumann. We also have employment agreements with each of our other named executive officers. The agreements for Mr. Wolf and Mr. Baumann were amended January 28, 2009 to be consistent with treatment afforded to other peer executives regarding salary continuation payments upon termination of employment. Specifically, the agreements for Messrs. Wolf and Baumann provide that for a period of 24 months following termination of their employment for any reason other than for cause or the executive's voluntary termination, they will receive payments at the rate of their most recent annual base salaries and target bonuses.

Each executive's compensation is governed largely by his respective employment agreement. The annual salary for each as of April 1, 2009 is as follows: Mr. Warshauer—$429,666, Mr. Wolf—$382,606 and Mr. Baumann $401,921. The annual car allowance that Mr. Warshauer previously received has been discontinued and added to his 2009 annual base salary. For 2009, all executives' salaries have been frozen. Each of the named executive officers other than Mr. Holten is entitled to an annual bonus based on corporate financial performance goals set annually. The formula and method of bonus calculation are identified in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Management Incentive Compensation" section. In addition, Mr. Wilhelm is entitled to reimbursement for country club initiation fees and monthly dues. The agreements also provide for reimbursement of travel and other expenses in connection with their employment. As of April 1, 2009, the employment agreements terminate on the following dates, subject to the expiration of the annual renewal notice period: Mr. Wilhelm—May 1, 2011, Mr. Warshauer—December 31, 2009, Mr. Wolf—March 26, 2010, and Mr. Baumann—October 1, 2010.

Mr. Holten. We have an employment agreement with John V. Holten to serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors and to be elected to, and serve as a member of, the Compensation and the Nominating & Corporate Governance Committees, if such membership is permitted under applicable NASDAQ rules. Mr. Holten is entitled to receive a base salary of not less than $400,000, with annual cost of living adjustments, and an annual bonus and equity awards determined, if he directly or indirectly owns a majority of our outstanding equity interests, by the Audit Committee, or otherwise, by the Compensation Committee. Mr. Holten's base salary for 2008 was $456,704. The total expense of his salary, bonus, automobile allowance, personal secretarial assistance, executive offices and all other compensation, benefits and perquisites for 2008 was $670,146.

Mr. Holten's employment agreement began in May 2004, automatically renewed for an additional four-year term starting in May 2009, and will run through May 2013. The term of employment shall be

renewed automatically for successive four-year periods, unless we provide Mr. Holten, or Mr. Holten provides us, with a written notice to the contrary at least one year prior to the end of any four-year renewal period. Any notice of non-renewal by us shall not be valid unless accompanied by a resolution duly adopted by not less than ³/4 of all of the disinterested members of the Board (or as otherwise required by applicable law, regulations or rules).

The following table sets forth information regarding grants of restricted stock units to our named executive officers that received RSUs pursuant to our Long-Term Incentive Plan and bonus amounts achievable pursuant to our Management Incentive Compensation Program during 2008. These RSUs represent the right, subject to the terms conditions and vesting schedule of the Plan and applicable restricted stock unit agreement, to receive a distribution of a share of our common stock, The RSUs vest in one-third installments on each of the tenth, eleventh and twelfth anniversaries of the grant date, and the agreements provide for accelerated vesting upon the recipient's retirement.

The following table shows grants of stock options and stock awards subject to performance restrictions outstanding on December 31, 2008, the last day of our fiscal year, to those of our named executive officers who received options.

The following table shows the number of shares acquired upon exercise of options as well as the shares of stock that became free of restrictions and the value of by each participating named executive officer during the year ended December 31, 2008.

We have not engaged in any option re-pricings or other modifications to any of our outstanding equity awards during fiscal year 2008.

The following table describes pension benefits to our participating named executive officers:

Nonqualified Defined Contribution and Other Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans

Our named executive officers other than Mr. Holten participated in a Deferred Compensation Plan that provided each with the opportunity to defer an amount which, when combined with his 401(k) plan deferral, will equal the maximum allowable deferral pursuant to the IRS section 415 limits. The following table sets forth the nonqualified deferred compensation of our named executive officers that received such compensation for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.

Pursuant to Mr. Wilhelm's employment agreement, if he is terminated for any reason, we are obligated to pay him or his estate, as applicable, an amount equal to his base salary earned through the date of termination plus accrued but unused vacation pay and other benefits earned through the date of termination. In addition, we are required to make the following payments to Mr. Wilhelm:

Pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement, if Mr. Wilhelm's employment is terminated (other than for cause or performance reasons) prior to his attaining age 55, he has the right to purchase certain annuity policies from us for the greater of (i) the cash value of the policies or (ii) the aggregate amount of premiums paid by us on such policies. If Mr. Wilhelm's employment is terminated after he attains age 55 (other than for cause or performance reasons), he may elect to have the policies assigned to him or he may elect to have us maintain the policies, provided that the cost of maintaining such policies shall be Mr. Wilhelm's obligation (subject to our payment of all policy premiums for each year beyond age 55 that Mr. Wilhelm continues to be employed by us). If Mr. Wilhelm's employment is terminated at any time as a result of his disability, he may elect to have one hundred percent (100%) of our ownership interest in the annuity policies assigned to him or require us to maintain the policies, with the cost of such maintenance to be borne by us. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) if Mr. Wilhelm's employment is terminated as the result of his death prior to attaining age 58 or he dies prior to his acquiring ownership in the annuity policies, we shall pay his beneficiary the full death benefits payable under the policies as reduced by the greater of (i) the total premiums paid by us in connection with such policies or (ii) the present value of future benefits provided by such policies, and (b) if Mr. Wilhelm's employment is terminated as the result of his death after attaining age 58 or at any time after he has acquired ownership of any of the annuity policies, we shall pay his beneficiary, without reduction, the full death benefits payable under all annuity policies that have not previously been acquired by Mr. Wilhelm.

Pursuant to Mr. Holten's employment agreement, if his employment is terminated without cause, he voluntarily terminates his employment for good reason, he is terminated following a change in control or we choose not to renew his employment term, he will be entitled to (i) in the event of termination without cause, for good reason or after a change in control, continue to receive through what would have been the last day of the employment term, plus for two years thereafter, the base salary and any annual incentive bonus, as if no termination had occurred; or, in the event of non-renewal, the base salary and any annual bonus for two years thereafter; (ii) medical insurance continuation coverage for the period during which base salary is being paid under clause (i) above; (iii) receive reimbursement for reasonable expenses for maintaining an executive office and secretarial assistance for five years from termination of employment; (iv) payment of unpaid base salary through the termination date; and (v) accrued but unused vacation days and any unpaid bonuses, and reimbursement for any unreimbursed expenses incurred, through the date of termination, and all other payments, benefits and rights under any benefit, compensation, incentive, equity or fringe benefit plan, program or arrangement or grant. Mr. Holten also agrees that, if his employment terminates at any time, that he will be subject to a two-year non-competition agreement for which he will receive up to $200,000 in continuation payments for the two-year period; provided, however, any severance payments described above will be reduced by such continuation payments. In the event Mr. Holten breaches the non-competition restrictions of the employment agreement at any time during the two-year period following the date of termination, our obligation to make any continuation payments immediately ceases.

If Mr. Holten's employment terminates due to death or disability, he or his estate, as the case may be, will receive: (i) payment of unpaid base salary through the termination date and the base salary for the then-remaining employment term; (ii) a pro-rata portion of the annual bonus amount for the year in which such termination occurs; and (iii) any benefits mandated under COBRA (the costs of which will be paid for by us); and (iv) the benefits under clause (v) of the preceding paragraph. If Mr. Holten's employment is terminated for cause, if Mr. Holten terminates his employment without good reason, or if he fails to renew his employment term, he is entitled to the payment of his base salary through his final day of active employment, continuation payments (which shall be $50,000 if he is terminated for cause) during the two-year non-competition period, plus any accrued but unused vacation pay, to be paid within 30 days following the termination. If any payments to Mr. Holten upon a change of control are subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, we will make an additional tax equalization payment on his behalf to gross up those excise and other resulting taxes.

Each of our employment agreements with Messrs. Wolf, Warshauer and Baumann is terminable by us for cause. If their employment is terminated by reason of their death, we are obligated to pay their respective estates an amount equal to the base salary earned through the end of the calendar month in which death occurs, plus any earned and unpaid annual bonus, vacation pay and other benefits earned through the date of termination. If the employment of Messrs. Wilhelm, Wolf, Warshauer or Baumann is terminated by reason of their disability, we are obligated to pay him or his legal representative an amount equal to his annual base salary for the duration of the employment period in effect on the date of termination, reduced by amounts received under any disability benefit program, plus any earned and unpaid annual bonus, vacation pay and other benefits earned through the date of termination. Upon termination of the employment of Messrs. Wolf, Warshauer or Baumann for any reason other than cause or the executive's voluntary resignation without good reason, we must (i) pay the executive, for a period of 24 months following termination, payments at the rate of the executive's most recent annual base salary and annual target bonus, and (ii) provide the executive and/or his family with certain other benefits. Upon termination of the employment of Messrs. Wolf, Warshauer or Baumann for cause or by reason of the executive's voluntary resignation without good reason, we must pay the executive the sum of $50,000 over a 12 month period.

Messrs. Wolf, Warshauer and Baumann are subject to non-competition and non-solicitation agreements for 24 months following termination of their employment.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 2, 2009, by:

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to options held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of March 2, 2009, are deemed issued and outstanding. These shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing percentage ownership of each other stockholder.

Except as indicated in the footnotes to this table and subject to applicable community property laws, each stockholder named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown as beneficially owned by them. This table also includes shares owned by a spouse as community property.

Percentage beneficially owned is based on 15,282,708 shares of common stock outstanding on March 2, 2009, and is calculated in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each of the individuals named below is: c/o Standard Parking Corporation, 900 North Michigan Avenue, Suite 1600, Chicago, Illinois 60611.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

The following is a summary of transactions during 2008 between the Company and our executive officers, directors, nominees, principal stockholders and other related persons involving amounts in excess of $120,000. Each of the transactions with a related person described below has been approved by the Audit Committee.

In December 2007, our Board authorized us to repurchase our common stock, on the open market or through private purchases, up to $25.0 million, provided that we met certain financial tests. In July

2008, our Board authorized an additional $60.0 million in common stock repurchases. In connection with these stock repurchase programs, we were authorized to repurchase shares from Steamboat, our majority stockholder, at the same price that we pay in each open-market purchase. We acquired 1,622,220 shares at an average price of $19.93, including average commissions of $0.03 per share, totaling $32.3 million through open market purchases during the year ended December 31, 2008. Steamboat sold to us 1,386,722 shares at an average price of $19.96, totaling $27.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2008.

We entered into a consulting agreement with D&E Parking, Inc. and Dale Stark, a former Senior Vice President of the Company, that became effective on May 1, 2007. This consulting agreement is for a period of three years, terminating on April 30, 2010. Per the terms of the agreement, consideration for services provided are $250,000 per year. In addition, the consultant is eligible for a consultant fee of up to $50,000 per year. In consideration of the services provided by D&E under this arrangement, we paid D&E $401,000 in 2008.

On December 31, 2000, we sold, at fair market value, certain contract rights to D&E. In July 2007, we bought back certain contract rights for approximately $1,472,000 ($850,000 paid in cash and $622,000 gain through the sale of certain contract rights), representing five locations. The Company continued to operate an additional location through January 2008, at which time the location was sold to an unrelated third party. We received net management fees and reimbursement for support services in connection with the operation of the parking facilities from D&E. We recorded net management fees of $4,000 in 2008.

In 2008 we provided property management services for twenty separate retail shopping centers and commercial office buildings in which D&E has an ownership interest. Dale Stark is the managing member of each property ownership entity. In consideration of the property management services we provided for these twenty properties, we recorded net management fees totaling $632,000in 2008.

In 2008 our wholly owned subsidiary, Preferred Response Security Services, Inc., provided security services for a retail shopping center owned by D&E. We recorded net management fees amounting to $34,000 for these security services in 2008. In 2008 we provided sweeping and power washing for two retail shopping facilities in which D&E has an ownership interest. For these services we recorded net management fees totaling $9,000.

We entered into a consulting agreement with Gunnar Klintberg, a member of our Board of Directors, on March 1, 2004, pursuant to which Mr. Klintberg has been engaged in the promotion and development of new parking operations and the consummation of contracts to operate parking facilities on our behalf primarily in the New York City metropolitan area. The initial term of Mr. Klintberg's agreement was for one year, renewable year to year unless terminated by either party on 60 days' notice. Upon the expiration of the initial term of the consulting agreement on March 31, 2005, the agreement was automatically extended for an additional year. On March 15, 2006, we amended Mr. Klintberg's consulting agreement, effective as of July 1, 2005. The amendment changed the commencement date of the term of the consulting agreement from a fiscal year commencing March 1 to a calendar year so that each new one year term, as applicable, commences on January 1. Under the terms of the amendment to his consulting agreement, Mr. Klintberg is paid a retainer of $125,000 annually, in addition to the following percentages of the net profit, for up to three years, for any new parking location he is responsible for bringing to us and which results in the consummation of a final executed contract: 15% in year one, 10% in year two and 5% in year three. To the extent that Mr. Klintberg is not responsible for one or more aspects of consummating a contract to operate a new

parking location, in the judgment of our executive vice president having operational responsibility for the New York City metropolitan area, his percentage of the net profit may be reduced. Mr. Klintberg additionally may receive up to 5% of the net profit for the renewal of an existing location. Mr. Klintberg is entitled to reimbursement of reasonable business expenses incurred in connection with the performance of his consulting services upon our advance approval. In consideration of the services provided by Mr. Klintberg, we paid him an annual retainer fee and percentages of net profit totaling $128,697 in 2008.

Mr. Klintberg is also party to an agreement with Holberg Incorporated (the "Holberg Agreement"), which is effective from January 1, 2006 for a term of seven years. (Mr. Holten is the chairman and chief executive officer of Holberg Incorporated, our indirect parent until 2001.) Under the Holberg Agreement, Mr. Klintberg has agreed to provide services to Holberg Incorporated in exchange for compensation, some of which may be affected by Mr. Klintberg's employment with us and the value of his options, stock appreciation rights and other similar interests based on our common stock. Specifically, the Holberg Agreement provides that Mr. Klintberg's termination payment with Holberg Incorporated will be decreased dollar-for-dollar by the then current value of his options, stock appreciation rights and other similar interests based on our common stock that have been granted to him by us and our affiliates pursuant to then existing arrangements. In addition, Mr. Klintberg is entitled to a payment of $125,000 per annum under the Holberg Agreement in the event that his existing consulting agreement with us is terminated due to our sale of us or is terminated without cause or for other specified reasons. We are not a party to the Holberg Agreement.

As part of its oversight responsibilities, the charter of our Audit Committee requires that the Audit Committee review all related party transactions for potential conflicts of interest. On November 2, 2006, the Board adopted a formal statement of policy for related party transactions. The policy requires that the Audit Committee review all transactions between the Company and our executive officers, directors, nominees, principal stockholders and other related persons for potential conflicts involving amounts in excess of $5,000.

Although the NASDAQ rules generally require NASDAQ-traded companies to have a board of directors comprised of a majority of independent directors, a "controlled company" is exempt from this requirement. Our parent company, Steamboat Industries LLC, and its affiliates (including Mr. Holten), collectively control more than 50% of the voting power of the Company and, accordingly, we are an exempt controlled company. The Board has determined that a majority of our outside directors,—Messrs. Andren, Biggs, Onarheim and Roath and Ms. Garrison—have no material relationship with our Company that would conflict with the independence requirements of applicable federal law and the NASDAQ rules. We rely on the "controlled company" exception, however, for committee composition requirements under the NASDAQ rules. Pursuant to this exception, we are exempt from the rule that requires our Compensation Committee and Nominating & Corporate Governance Committee to be composed solely of "independent directors" as defined in the NASDAQ rules. The "controlled company" exception does not modify the independence requirements for our Audit Committee composition, which complies with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the NASDAQ independence rules for audit committees. The independent directors meet from time to time in connection with Audit Committee meetings at which only independent directors are present. Three such meetings occurred in 2008.

The Board determined that, given Mr. Østberg's relationship with Mr. Holten and his affiliates, our controlling stockholder, he may not be considered independent. Mr. Klintberg is not considered independent because of his relationship with Mr. Holten and his affiliates, our controlling stockholder,

and because he is presently a paid consultant to the Company. Mr. Wilhelm is not considered independent because he is our Chief Executive Officer.

The Audit Committee, with the approval of the stockholders, engaged Ernst & Young LLP to perform an annual audit of our financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The following table describes fees for professional audit services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP, our principal accountant, for the audit of our annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, and fees billed for other services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP during these periods.

Procedures for Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditor

Pursuant to our pre-approval policy and procedures, the Audit Committee was responsible for reviewing and approving, in advance, any audit and any permissible non-audit engagement or relationship between the Company and our independent auditors. The Audit Committee has responsibility for appointing, setting compensation for and overseeing the work of our independent auditors, and has established a policy concerning the pre-approval of services performed by our independent auditors. Each proposed engagement not specifically identified by the Securities and Exchange Commission as impairing independence is evaluated for independence implications prior to entering into a contract with the independent auditor for such services. The Audit Committee has approved in advance certain permitted services whose scope is consistent with auditor independence. These services are the audit of our annual financial statements and review of financial statements included in our Forms 10-Q and Form 10-K, and 401(k) Plan audit for 2008 was approved by the Audit Committee on May 5, 2008. Additionally, each permissible audit and non-audit engagement or relationship between us and Ernst & Young LLP entered into since December 1, 2002 has been reviewed and approved by the Board or the Audit Committee, as provided in our pre-approval policies and procedures.

We have been advised by Ernst & Young LLP that substantially all of the work done in conjunction with its 2008 audit of our financial statements for the most recently completed year was performed by permanent, full-time employees and partners of Ernst & Young LLP. We have received confirmation and a letter from Ernst & Young LLP required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding Ernst & Young LLP's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and discussed with Ernst & Young LLP its independence.

All other schedules are omitted since the required information is not present or is not present in amounts sufficient to require submission of the schedule, or because the information required is included in the consolidated financial statements or the notes thereto.

We have audited Standard Parking Corporation's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Standard Parking Corporation's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Form 10-K. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Standard Parking Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Standard Parking Corporation as of December 31, 2008, and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, and our report dated March 12, 2009 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Standard Parking Corporation (Company) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Standard Parking Corporation at December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note H to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes".

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Standard Parking Corporation's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 12, 2009, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

STANDARD PARKING CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years Ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006

(In thousands except share and per share data)

Standard Parking Corporation ("Standard" or "the Company"), and its subsidiaries and affiliates manage, operate and develop parking properties throughout the United States and Canada. The Company is a majority-owned subsidiary of Steamboat Industries LLC. The Company provides on-site management services at multi-level and surface facilities for all major markets of the parking industry. The Company manages approximately 2,200 locations, across the United States and Canada.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and joint ventures in which the Company has more than 50% ownership interest. Minority interest recorded in the consolidated statements of income is the joint venture partner's non-controlling interest in consolidated joint ventures. We have interests in twelve joint ventures, each of which operates between one and twenty-two parking facilities. Of the twelve joint ventures, nine are majority owned by us and are consolidated into our financial statements, and three are single purpose entities where we have a 50% interest or a minority interest. Investments in joint ventures where the Company has a 50% or less non-controlling ownership interest are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The existing three VIE's in which we have a variable interest are not consolidated into our financial statements because we are not the primary beneficiary.

The Company's revenues are primarily derived from leased locations, managed properties and the providing of ancillary services, such as accounting, equipment leasing, payments received for exercising termination rights, consulting development fees, gains on sales of contracts, insurance and other value-added services. In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 104, "Revenue Recognition", revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees are fixed or determinable, collectibility is reasonably assured and as services are provided. The Company recognizes gross receipts (net of taxes collected from customers) as revenue from leased locations, and management fees for parking services, as the related services are provided. Ancillary services are earned from management contract properties and are recorded as revenue as those services are provided. From time to time, the Company also recognizes gains on sales of parking contracts and development fees which are recorded as management contract revenue as those services are provided and/or earned ($0 in 2008 and $622 in 2007 and $0 in 2006). Development fees are revenue received from a customer for which we have provided certain consulting services as part of our offerings of

ancillary management services. The gains from sales of contracts are for these contracts for which we have no asset basis or ownership interest and would be received as part of a formula buy-out in the contract in order for the owner to terminate the contract prior to its expiration.

The Company recognizes costs for leases and non-reimbursed costs from managed facilities as cost of parking services. Cost of parking services consists primarily of rent and payroll related costs.

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses. Advertising expenses aggregated $195, $191 and $261 for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Company accounts for share-based payment awards in accordance with SFAS No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment," as interpreted by SAB No. 107. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, share-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite employee service period (generally the vesting period) for awards expected to vest (considering estimated forfeitures). (See Note R).

Cash equivalents represent funds temporarily invested in money market instruments with maturities of one to five days. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value.

Accounts receivable, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, represents our estimate of the amount that ultimately will be realized in cash. Management reviews the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends, aging of receivables, and a review of specific accounts, and makes adjustments in the allowance as necessary. Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances could have an impact on the collection of existing receivable balances or future allowance considerations. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts was $3,866 and $3,617, respectively.

Leasehold improvements and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Equipment is depreciated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of approximately 5 years on average. Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases or the service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter (average of approximately 7 years). Assets under capital leases are amortized on the straight-line basis

over the shorter of the terms of the respective leases or the service lives of the asset and is included in depreciation expense.

Costs associated with internal-use software are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Position No. 98-1 ("SOP 98-1"), "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use."

Cost of parking contracts are amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted average contract life which is 10 years for the year ending December 31, 2008 and 7 years for the year ending December 31, 2007. Amortization expense was $1,344, $1,087 and $1,138 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Goodwill comprises of the excess of costs over the fair value of net assets of the acquired businesses. The Company performs goodwill impairment tests on at least an annual basis, or more frequently if facts and circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired using the two-step process prescribed in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS No. 142") "Goodwill and Other intangibles" For the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company measured the fair value of its reporting segments in the fourth quarter and determined that the fair value of its reporting segments was greater than their carrying value and therefore no impairment of goodwill existed.

Long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or group of assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

The costs of obtaining financing are capitalized and amortized as interest expense over the term of the respective financing using the interest rate method. Debt issuance costs of $2,776 and $885 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, are included in intangibles and other assets in the consolidated balance sheets and are reflected net of accumulated amortization. Amortization expense was $449, $275 and $525 at December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. Other long-term debt has a carrying value that approximates fair value because these instruments bear interest at market rates.

The functional currency of the Company's foreign operations is the local currency. Accordingly, assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign operations are translated from foreign currencies into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect on the balance sheet date while income and expenses are translated at the weighted-average exchange rates for the year. Adjustments resulting from the translations of foreign currency financial statements are accumulated and classified as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

To meet this objective, we entered into an interest rate cap transaction with Bank of America, N.A. in 2005, allowing us to continue to take advantage of LIBOR based pricing under our Credit Agreement while hedging our interest rate exposure on a portion of our borrowings under the Credit Agreement ("Rate Cap Transaction"). Under the Rate Cap Transaction, we received payments from Bank of America at the end of each quarterly period to the extent that the prevailing three month LIBOR during that period exceeded our cap rate. The Rate Cap Transaction capped our LIBOR rate on a $30,000 principal balance at 2.5% for a total of 18 months, which matured on July 12, 2006, and for which we recognized a gain of $290 over the life of the cap. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we recognized a gain of $152 which was reported as a reduction of interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income. The Rate Cap Transaction began as of January 12, 2005 and settled each quarter on a date that coincided with our quarterly interest payment dates under the Credit Agreement.

In 2006 we entered into an additional Rate Cap Transaction with Bank of America, which allows us to limit our exposure on a portion of our borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Under this Rate Cap Transaction, we receive payments from Bank of America each quarterly period to the extent that the prevailing three month LIBOR during that period exceeds our cap rate of 5.75%. This Rate Cap Transaction caps our LIBOR interest rate on a notional amount of $50,000 at 5.75% for a total of 36 months. The Rate Cap Transaction began as of August 4, 2006 and settles each quarter on a date that coincides with our quarterly interest payment dates under the Credit Agreement. This Rate Cap Transaction is classified as a cash flow hedge, and we calculate the effectiveness of the hedge on a quarterly basis. The ineffective portion of the cash flow hedge is recognized in current period earnings as an increase of interest expense.

At December 31, 2008, the fair value of the Rate Cap Transaction was immaterial. Total changes in the fair value of the Rate Cap Transaction at December 31, 2008 was $300, of which $158 was recorded as an increase of interest expense in the consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2008. $83 of this change was due to hedge ineffectiveness.

At December 31, 2007, the fair value of the Rate Cap Transaction was immaterial. Total changes in the fair value of the Rate Cap Transaction as of December 31, 2007 was $300, of which $93 was reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, on the consolidated balance sheet. $100 and $42 of this change was recorded as an increase of interest expense in the consolidated statement of income for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging purposes.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company purchases comprehensive liability insurance covering certain claims that occur at parking facilities the Company leases or manages. In addition, the Company purchases umbrella/excess liability coverage. The Company's various liability insurance policies have deductibles of up to $250 that must be met before the insurance companies are required to reimburse the Company for costs incurred relating to covered claims. As a result, the Company is, in effect, self-insured for all claims up to the deductible levels. The Company applies the provisions of SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, in determining the timing and amount of expense recognition associated with claims against the Company. The expense recognition is based upon the Company's determination of an unfavorable outcome of a claim being deemed as probable and capable of being reasonably estimated, as defined in SFAS No. 5. This determination requires the use of judgment in both the estimation of probability and the amount to be recognized as an expense. The Company utilizes historical claims experience along with regular input from third party insurance advisors in determining the required level of insurance reserves. Future information regarding historical loss experience may require changes to the level of insurance reserves and could result in increased expense recognition in the future.

The Company is subject to litigation in the normal course of our business. The Company applies the provisions of SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, in determining the recognition and measurement of expense recognition associated with legal claims against the Company. Management uses guidance from internal and external legal counsel on the potential outcome of litigation in

determining the need to record liabilities for potential losses and the disclosure of pending legal claims. (See Note L).

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, Fair Value Measurements ("Statement No. 157"). Statement No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement does not require new fair value measurements, but is applied to the extent that other accounting pronouncements require or permit fair value measurements. The statement emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Companies will be required to disclose the extent to which fair value is used to measure assets and liabilities, the inputs used to develop the measurements, and the effect of certain of the measurements on earnings (or changes in net assets) for the period. Certain requirements of Statement No. 157 are required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The effective date for other requirements of Statement No. 157 has been deferred for one year by the FASB. The Company adopted the sections of Statement No. 157 which are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and there was no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the delayed Sections of Statement No. 157 on its consolidated financial statements, but is not yet in a position to determine the impact of its adoption.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141 (Revised 2007), Business Combinations ("Statement No. 141R"), effective prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Statement No. 141R establishes principles and requirements on how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, goodwill or gain from a bargain purchase and accounting for transaction costs. Additionally, Statement No. 141R determines what information must be disclosed to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The Company adopted Statement No. 141R on January 1, 2009. The impact of the adoption of Statement No. 141R will depend on the nature and extent of business combinations occurring on or after the effective date.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51. ("Statement No. 160") Statement No. 160 requires entities to report noncontrolling (minority) interests as a component of shareholders' equity on the balance sheet; include all earnings of a consolidated subsidiary in consolidated results of operations; and treat all transactions between the parent and its noncontrolling interest holder that increase or decrease the noncontrolling interest as equity provided the parent does not lose control. Statement No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, must be adopted concurrently with SFAS 141R, and adoption is prospective only; however, presentation and disclosure requirements described above must be applied retrospectively. The Company has evaluated the impact

that Statement No. 160 will have on its financial statements and disclosures and determined that the impact will not be material.

Certain amounts previously presented in the financial statements of prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

On December 4, 2007, the Board of Directors declared a 2-for-1 stock split in the form of a 100% common stock dividend to stockholders of record as of the close of business on January 8, 2008, which was distributed on January 17, 2008. All share and per share data included in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been adjusted to reflect this stock split.

In accordance with SFAS No.128, Earnings Per Share ("EPS"), basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted daily average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted net income per share is based upon the weighted daily average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the year plus dilutive potential common shares, including stock options and restricted stock units using the treasury-stock method.

A reconciliation of the weighted average basic shares outstanding to the weighted average diluted shares outstanding is as follows:

There were no anti-dilutive shares for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006.

The dilutive effect of the one-time grant of 755,000 restricted stock units is 47,032 shares and is reflected in diluted EPS by application of the treasury stock method pursuant to paragraph 17 of SFAS No. 128.

For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, 18,777 and 25,849 shares, respectively, of performance based restricted stock were not included in the computation of weighted diluted common share amounts because the number of shares ultimately issued is contingent on the Company's performance goals, which were not achieved as of that date. There were no performance based restricted stock awards issued and outstanding in 2006.

There are no additional securities that could dilute basic EPS in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS, other than those disclosed.

A summary of leasehold improvements, equipment, and construction in progress and related accumulated depreciation and amortization is as follows:

Depreciation expense was $4,403, $4,200 and $4,481 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Depreciation includes losses on abandonments of leasehold improvements and equipment of $584, $148 and $368 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Cost of contracts represents the contractual rights associated with providing parking services at a managed or leased facility. Cost consists of either capitalized payments made to third parties or the value ascribed to contracts acquired through acquisition. Cost of contracts are amortized over the estimated life of the contracts, including anticipated renewals and terminations.

During 2008, we retired fully amortized contracts in the amount of $29,177 that had expired.

During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company completed two acquisitions. Consideration for all acquisitions was $8,505 of which $6,008 was paid in cash and $2,497 in a discounted non-interest bearing note to be paid in the annual installments of $600, commencing February 2009 and an estimated $187 to be paid in the future based upon financial performance compared to forecast. In addition, the Company paid and capitalized $310 in acquisition costs. A summary of the acquisitions follows:

The acquisitions of Downtown Valet, LLC and G.O. Parking represent acquisitions of businesses, as defined by EITF Issue No. 98-3.

These acquisitions consisted of goodwill of $3,007, cost of contract of $5,314, intangible assets of $233 and equipment of $261. At December 31, 2008, we accrued for a contingency payment of $225 related to a 2007 acquisition.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company completed four acquisitions and purchased certain assets of a valet operation in Seattle, Washington. Consideration for all acquisitions

was approximately $6,550, ($5,928 paid in cash and $622 through the sale of certain contract rights in a non-cash transaction) with an estimated $1,525 to be paid in the future based upon financial performance compared to forecast of which $64 has been paid in 2008. In addition, the Company paid and capitalized $274 in acquisition costs. A summary of the acquisitions follows:

These acquisitions consisted of goodwill of $1,252, cost of contract of $5,195, intangible assets of $260, and equipment of $117.

The acquisitions for 2008 and 2007 were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The Company financed the acquisitions through additional term borrowings under the senior credit facility and existing cash. The results of operations of these acquisitions are included in the Company's consolidated statement of income from the date of acquisition. None of the acquisitions, either individually or in the aggregate is considered material to the Company.

On July 15, 2008, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with a group of six banks: Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, issuing lender and as a lender; Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as syndication agent, issuing lender and as a lender; Fifth Third Bank, as a lender; First Hawaiian Bank, as a lender; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as a lender; and U.S. Bank National

Association, as a lender. This credit agreement amended and restated our credit facility dated June 29, 2006.

The senior credit facility was increased from $135,000 to $210,000. The $210,000 revolving credit facility will expire in July 2013. The revolving credit facility includes a letter of credit sub-facility with a sublimit of $50,000 and a swing line sub-facility with a sublimit of $10,000.

This revolving credit facility bears interest, at our option, at either (1) LIBOR plus the applicable LIBOR Margin ranging between 2.00% and 3.50% depending on the ratio of our total funded indebtedness to our EBITDA from time to time ("Total Debt Ratio") or (2) the Base Rate (as defined below) plus the applicable Base Rate Margin ranging between 0.50% and 2.00% depending on our Total Debt Ratio. We may elect interest periods of one, two, three or six months for LIBOR based borrowings. The Base Rate is the greater of (i) the rate publicly announced from time to time by Bank of America, N.A. as its "prime rate", or (ii) the overnight federal funds rate plus 0.50%.

The weighted average interest rate on our senior credit facility at December 31, 2008 and 2007 was 3.6% and 5.4%, respectively. The rate includes all outstanding LIBOR contracts, interest rate cap effect and letters of credit. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings, not including letters of credit, was 3.8% and 6.5% at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

At December 31, 2008, we had $20,767 of letters of credit outstanding under the senior credit facility, borrowings against the senior credit facility aggregated $120,600, and we had $68,633 available under the senior credit facility.

We have entered into various financing agreements, which were used for the purchase of equipment.

The components of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, are as follows:

The components of income tax expense (benefit) for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 were as follows:

Deferred income taxes reflect the net effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 are as follows:

		2008			2007

		(in thousands)
Deferred tax assets:
	Net operating loss carry forwards	$	8,739		$	12,782

SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes requires that we assess the realizability of deferred tax assets at each reporting period. These assessments generally consider several factors including the reversal of existing temporary differences, projected future taxable income, and potential tax planning strategies. We have valuation allowances totaling $456 and $608 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, related to our state net operating loss carryforwards (NOL's) that we believe are not likely to be realized based upon our estimates of future state taxable income, limitations of the use of our state NOL's, and the carryforward life over which the state tax benefit will be realized.

At December 31, 2008 the Company had $21,020 of gross federal net operating loss (NOLs) carryforwards, which will expire in the years 2021 through 2024, and $1,382 of tax effected state net operating loss (NOL's) carryforwards which will expire 2009 through 2026. As a result of the initial public offering completed in June of 2004, an ownership change occurred under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 which limits our ability to use pre-change NOLs to reduce future taxable income.

Since 2005, the Company has treated its investment in its Canadian subsidiary as non-permanent in duration and provided taxes on the undistributed Canadian earnings under APB 23. In 2008, the Company reassessed the treatment of the undistributed earnings of its Canadian subsidiary and determined that approximately $500 of Canadian earnings are permanently reinvested to meet the Canadian subsidiary's working capital requirements. The Company has provided taxes for the remaining undistributed earnings of its Canadian subsidiary in excess of the permanently reinvested amount.

A reconciliation of the Company's reported income tax provision (benefit) to the amount computed by multiplying book income/(loss) before income taxes by the statutory United States federal income tax rate is as follows:

Income taxes paid in aggregate to United States federal, state and Canadian tax authorities was $2,564, $1,145 and $572 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

In July 2006, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"). Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company recognizes potential interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, in income tax expense. Upon adoption as of January 1, 2007, the Company completed a detailed analysis of its tax positions and determined that the implementation of FIN 48 did not have an impact on the Company's financial position or results from operations. As of December 31, 2008, the Company has not identified any tax positions that would have a material impact on the Company's financial position.

The tax years that remain subject to examination for the Company's major tax jurisdictions at December 31, 2008 are shown below:

The Company offers deferred compensation arrangements for certain key executives and sponsors an employees' savings and retirement plan in which certain employees are eligible to participate. Subject to their continued employment by the Company, certain employees offered supplemental pension arrangements will receive a defined monthly benefit upon attaining age 65. At December 31,

2008 and 2007, the Company has accrued $3,008 and $2,925, respectively, representing the present value of the future benefit payments. Expenses related to these plans amounted to $154, $171, and $182 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Participants in the savings and retirement plan may elect to contribute a portion of their compensation to the plan. The Company, contributes an amount in cash or other property as required by the plan. Expenses related to these plans amounted to $904, $919, and $808 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Company also offers a non-qualified deferred compensation plan. This plan allows certain employees to defer a portion of their compensation, limited to a maximum of $50 per year, to be paid to the participants upon retirement. To support the non-qualified deferred compensation plan, the Company has elected to purchase Company owned life insurance ("COLI") policies on certain plan participants. The cash surrender value of the COLI policies is designed to provide a source for funding the accrued liability. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the cash surrender value of the COLI policies is $943 and $717, respectively and is included in intangible and other assets, net on the consolidated balance sheet. The liability for the non-qualified deferred compensation plan is included in other long-term liabilities and was $1,336 and $1,148 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the plan also included restricted cash of $484 and $438, respectively and is included in intangible and other assets, net on the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company also contributes to two multi-employer defined contribution and seven multi-employer defined benefit plans which cover certain union employees. Expenses related to these plans were $575, $374 and $418 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Company operates parking facilities under operating leases expiring on various dates, generally prior to 2019. Certain of the leases contain options to renew at the Company's discretion.

Total future annual rent expense is not determinable due to the application of percentage factors based on revenues. At December 31, 2008, the Company's minimum rental commitments, excluding contingent rent provisions under all non-cancelable leases, are as follows:

Rent expense, including contingent rents, was $110,134, $104,032 and $109,597 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Contingent rent expense was $62,013, $ 64,874 and $65,421 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Contingent rent expense consists primarily of percentage rent payments, which will cease at various times as certain leases expire.

In connection with the acquisition of a 76% interest in Executive Parking Industries, LLC, we entered into a management agreement dated May 1, 1998, with D&E Parking, Inc., a privately held company owned by Ed Simmons, an executive officer, and Dale Stark, a former Senior Vice President and presently a consultant of the Company. The management agreement was for a period of nine years and terminated on April 30, 2007. In consideration of the services provided by D&E under this arrangement, we paid D&E an annual fee of $411 in 2007 and $549 in 2006.

We entered into a consulting agreement with D&E Parking, Inc. and Dale Stark that became effective on May 1, 2007 after the aforementioned management agreement terminated by its terms. This consulting agreement is for a period of three years, terminating on April 30, 2010. Per the terms of the agreement, consideration for services provided are $250 per year. In addition, the consultant is eligible for a consultant fee of up to $50 per year. In consideration of the services provided by D&E under this arrangement, we paid D&E $401 and accrued $50 in 2008 and paid $167 in 2007.

On December 31, 2000, we sold, at fair market value, certain contract rights to D&E. In July 2007, we bought back certain contract rights for approximately $1,472 ($850 paid in cash and $622 gain through the sale of certain contract rights), representing five locations. The Company continued to operate an additional location through January 2008, at which time the location was sold to an unrelated third party. We received net management fees and reimbursement for support services in connection with the operation of the parking facilities from D&E. We recorded net management fees from D&E of $4 in 2008, $66 in 2007, and $149 in 2006.

In 2008, Standard Parking provided property management services for twenty separate retail shopping centers and commercial office buildings in which D&E has an ownership interest. Dale Stark is the managing member of each of the property ownership entity. In consideration of the property management services we provided for these twenty properties, we recorded net management fees totaling $632 in 2008. In 2007, we operated fifteen of these properties and recorded net management fees totaling $500. In 2006, we operated nine of these properties and recorded net management fees totaling $363.

In 2008, our wholly owned subsidiary, Preferred Response Security Services, Inc., provided security services for one retail shopping center owned by D&E and two retail shopping centers in 2007 and 2006. We recorded net management fees amounting to $34 for these security services in 2008, $35 in 2007 and $37 in 2006. In 2008 and 2007, we provided sweeping and power washing for two retail shopping facilities in which D&E has an ownership interest and three facilities in 2006. For these services we recorded net management fees totaling $9 in 2008, $9 in 2007 and $45 in 2006.

Future minimum lease payments under capital leases at December 31, 2008 together with the present value of the minimum lease payments are as follows:

In accordance with FASB Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", goodwill was assigned to respective segments that we now present based upon the specific Region where the assets acquired and associate goodwill resided.

As a result of the acquisitions which occurred during 2008 and 2007, our contingent payments outstanding as of December 31, 2008 total $1,423 will be paid over time based on achieving certain performance criteria. Such contingent payments will be accounted for as additional purchase price.

The following table reflects the changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill by reported segment for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.

We are entered into a 25-year agreement with the State of Connecticut ("State") that expires on April 6, 2025, under which we operate the surface parking and 3,500 garage parking spaces at Bradley International Airport located in the Hartford, Connecticut metropolitan area. The company manages the facility for which it is expected to receive a management fee.

The parking garage was financed on April 6, 2000 through the issuance of $53,800 of State of Connecticut special facility revenue bonds, representing $47,700 non-taxable Series A bonds and a separate taxable issuance of $6,100 Series B bonds. The Series B bonds were retired on July 1, 2006 according to the terms of the indenture. The Bradley agreement provides that we deposit with a trustee for the bondholders all gross revenues collected from operations of the surface and garage parking, and from these gross revenues. Principal and interest on the Bradley special facility revenue bonds increase from approximately $3,600 in lease year 2002 to approximately $4,500 in lease year 2025. Annual guaranteed minimum payments to the State increase from approximately $8,300 in lease year 2002 to

approximately $13,200 in lease year 2024. The annual minimum guaranteed payment to the State as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $9,531 and $9,335, respectively.

All of the cash flow from the Parking Facilities are pledged to the security of the bonds and are collected and deposited with the bond trustee. Each month the bond trustee makes certain required monthly distributions, which are characterized as "Guaranteed Payments." To the extent the monthly gross receipts generated by the Parking Facilities are not sufficient for the trustee to make the required Guaranteed Payments, we are obligated to deliver the deficiency amount to the trustee. Additionally, the Guaranteed Payments are required to be paid before we are reimbursed for deficiency payments or management fees.

However, to the extent there is a cash surplus in any month during the term of the Lease, we have the right to be repaid the principal amount of any and all deficiency payments, together with actual interest expenses and a premium, not to exceed 10% of the initial deficiency payment. We calculate and record interest income and premium income in the period the associated deficiency payment is received from the trustee.

To the extent that monthly gross receipts are not sufficient for the trustee to make the required payments, we are obligated pursuant to our agreement, to deliver the deficiency amount to the trustee within three business days of being notified. We are responsible for these deficiency payments regardless of the amount of utilization for the Bradley parking facilities. The deficiency payments represent contingent interest bearing advances to the trustee to cover operating cash flow requirements. To the extent sufficient funds are available in the appropriate fund, the trustee is then directed by the State to reimburse us for deficiency payments up to the amount of the calculated surplus.

In the year ended December 31, 2008, we made deficiency payments (net of repayments received) of $1,826. In addition, in 2008 we received $18 for premium income on deficiency repayments from the trustee and reversed the $52 interest and premium receivable recorded in 2007. In the year ended December 31, 2007, we received repayments (net of deficiency payments) of $202. In addition, in 2007 we received $114 for the 2006 receivable and $282 for interest and premium income on deficiency repayments from the trustee. The total receivable from the trustee for interest and premium income related to deficiency repayments were $0 and $52 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The payments, if any, are recorded as a receivable by us for which we are reimbursed from time to time as provided in the trust agreement. As of December 31, 2008, and December 31, 2007, we have a receivable of $5,961 and $4,135, respectively, compromised of cumulative deficiency payments to the trustee, net of reimbursements. We believe these advances to be fully recoverable and therefore have not recorded a valuation allowance for them. We do not guarantee the payment of any principal or interest on any debt obligations of the State of Connecticut or the trustee.

Per the Construction, Financing and Operating Special Facility Lease Agreement, which governs reimbursement of Guarantor Payments, places no time restriction or language exists limiting our right to reimbursement in the Lease.

The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balance of the receivable for each year presented:

The following table reconciles interest and premium income accrued and interest and premium income received, which are not included in the above balances:

In addition to the recovery of certain general and administrative expenses incurred, our agreement provides for an annual management fee payment which is based on three operating profit tiers calculated for each year during the term of the agreement. The management fee is further apportioned

60% to us and 40% to an un-affiliated entity. To the extent that funds are available for the trustee to make a distribution, the annual management fee is paid when sufficient cash is paid after the Guaranteed Payments (as defined in our agreement), and after the repayment of all deficiency payments, including accrued interest and premium. However, our right to the management fee accrues each year during the term of the agreement and is paid when sufficient cash is available for the trustee to make a distribution.

The annual management fee is paid after the repayment of all deficiency payments, including accrued interest and premium, therefore due to the existence and length of time for repayment of the deficiency amounts to the Company, no management fees have been recognized. Management fees will be recognized in accordance with SAB 104 when "collectibility is reasonably assured".

Cumulative management fees of $3,600 have not been recognized as of December 31, 2008 and no management fees were recognized during 2008 and 2007.

the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources. The CODM, as defined by SFAS 131, is the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO").

Each of the operating segments is directly responsible for revenue and expenses related to their operations including direct regional administrative costs. Finance, information technology, human resources, and legal are shared functions that are not allocated back to the four operating segments. The CODM assesses the performance of each operating segment using information about its revenue and operating income (loss) before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization, but does not evaluate segments using discrete asset information. There are no inter-segment transactions and the Company does not allocate interest and other income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization or taxes to operating segments. The accounting policies for segment reporting are the same as for the Company as a whole.

The Company is managed based on regions administered by executive vice presidents. Three regions are generally organized geographically with the fourth region encompassing major airports and transportation operations nationwide. The following is a summary of revenues (excluding reimbursement of management contract expenses) and gross profit by regions for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006. Information related to prior years has been recast to conform to the current region alignment.

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective method and consequently we have not retroactively adjusted prior period results. Under this method, compensation costs for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 are based on the estimated fair value of the respective options and the proportion vesting in the period. Deductions for stock-based employee compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 were calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Allocation of compensation expense was made using historical option terms for option grants made to our employees and historical price volatility.

The Company has an amended and restated Long-Term Incentive Plan that was adopted in conjunction with our IPO. On February 27, 2008, our Board of Directors approved an amendment to

our Long-Term Incentive Plan, subject to shareholder approval, that increased the maximum number of shares of common stock available for awards under the Long-Term Incentive Plan from 2,000,000 to 2,175,000 and extended the Plan's termination date. Our shareholders approved this Plan amendment on April 22, 2008, and the Plan now terminates twenty years from the date of such approval, or April 22, 2028. At December 31, 2008, 122,471 shares remained available for award under the Plan. In most cases, options granted under the Plan vest at the end of a three-year period from the date of the award. Options are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price at the date of grant.

We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of each option grant as of the date of grant. The volatilities are based on the 90 day historical volatility of our common stock as the grant date. The risk free interest rate is based on zero-coupon U.S. government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the option. For options granted prior to 2008, the expected life for options was calculated using the simplified method. The simplified method was calculated as the vesting term plus the contractual term divided by two.

On January 24, 2008, we issued vested stock grants totaling 1,084 shares to a certain director. The total value of the grant was $25 and is included in general and administrative expenses.

On April 22, 2008, we issued vested stock grants totaling 16,200 to certain directors. The total value of the grant was $385 and is included in general and administrative expenses.

On April 25, 2007, we issued stock options, which vested immediately, to purchase 19,068 shares of common stock at a market price of $17.02 per share to certain directors.

On May 5, 2006, we issued stock options, which vested immediately, to purchase 26,820 shares of common stock at a market price of $13.53 per share to certain directors.

The Company recognized $411, $282 and $480 of stock based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expense. As of December 31, 2008, there was no unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested options.

The following table summarizes the transactions pursuant to our stock option plans for the last three years ended December 31.

A summary of the status of the nonvested options as of December 31, 2008, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2008, is presented below:

In December 2006, the Board of Directors adopted a performance-based incentive program under our Long-Term Incentive Plan. This new program provides participating executives with the opportunity to earn a combination of stock (50%) and cash (50%) if certain performance targets for pre-tax income and pre-tax free cash flow are achieved. On February 23, 2007, certain participating executives became entitled to performance restricted stock based on the stock price at the commencement of the three year performance cycle (2007 - 2009) and as a result 16,404 shares were issued subject to vesting upon the achievement of the performance goals. On April 13, 2007, an additional 13,294 shares of the performance restricted stock were issued subject to vesting upon the achievement of the three year performance goals to the remaining participating executives. On December 31, 2007, 3,849 shares were released free of restrictions in accordance with the achievement of the first year performance goals. On December 31, 2008, 7,072 shares were released free of restrictions in accordance with the achievement of the second year performance goals.

A summary of the status of the nonvested restricted stock shares as of December 31, 2008, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2008, is presented below:

The total value of the restricted stock awards vested during the year ended December 31, 2008 was $136.

In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, recording of stock-based compensation expense for awards with performance conditions is based on the probable outcome of that performance condition. The Company recognized $107 and $182 of stock-based compensation expense and $107 and $182 of cash compensation expense related to the performance-based incentive program, for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses. As of December 31, 2008, there was $91 of unrecognized compensation costs related to the performance-based incentive program which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1 year.

In March 2008, the Company's Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors authorized a one-time grant of 750,000 restricted stock units that subsequently were awarded to members of our senior management team on July 1, 2008. In November 2008, an additional 5,000 restricted stock units were also awarded. The restricted stock units vest in one-third installments on each of the tenth,

eleventh and twelfth anniversaries of the grant date. The restricted stock unit agreements provide for accelerated vesting upon the recipient's retirement age.

The cost of restricted stock units is determined using the fair value of our common stock on the date of the grant, and compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period. In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, we estimate forfeitures at the time of the grant and revise those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. We use historical data to estimate pre-vesting forfeitures and record stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest.

A summary of the status of the restricted stock units as of December 31, 2008, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2008, is presented below:

The Company recognized $991 of stock based compensation expense related to the restricted stock units for the year ended December 31, 2008, which is included in general and administrative expense. As of December 31, 2008, there was $11,661 of unrecognized stock-based compensation costs, net of estimated forfeitures, related to the restricted stock units that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 7.8 years.

On May 2, 2008, we entered into a definitive settlement agreement with our insurance carrier which finalized all of our open claims with respect to Hurricane Katrina. The settlement agreement was for $4,225 of which $2,000 was received previously. We were required to reimburse the owners of the leased and managed locations for property damage of approximately $2,228. After payment of settlement fees, expenses and other amounts due under contractual arrangements, we recorded $1,997 in pre-tax income, of which $1,577 was recorded as revenue and $420 was recorded as a reduction of general and administrative expenses.
