On September 26, 2012, Standard Parking Corporation (“Standard”), KCPC Holdings, Inc. (“KCPC”) and Central Parking Corporation (“Central”) entered into an Asset Preservation Stipulation and Order (the “Stipulation and Order”) and a Proposed Final Judgment (the “Proposed Final Judgment”) with the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice regarding Standard’s acquisition of KCPC by means of a merger (the “Merger”) of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Standard with and into KCPC, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 28, 2012, by and among KCPC, Standard, Hermitage Merger Sub, Inc., and Kohlberg CPC Rep, L.L.C.  The Stipulation and Order and Proposed Final Judgment were filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia (the “District Court”) on September 26, 2012.

 

Under the terms of the Proposed Final Judgment and Stipulation and Order, Standard and Central will divest contracts covering slightly more than 100 off-street parking facilities.  The contracts, which include both leases and management agreements, will be sold, terminated or permitted to expire without renewal.  Upon approval of the Stipulation and Order and Proposed Final Judgment by the District Court, the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 will be terminated and the parties will be permitted to consummate the Merger.

 

Standard issued a press release announcing its entry into the Stipulation and Order and the filing of the Proposed Final Judgment.  A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

In addition, the Board appointed G Marc Baumann, Standard’s Chief Financial Officer, as President, Urban Operations.  In his new position, Mr. Baumann will have chief responsibility for the combined company’s operations in major metropolitan areas.  Mr. Baumann will remain Standard’s Chief Financial Officer.  Effective as of the date of the consummation of the Merger, Mr. Baumann’s base salary will be increased to $550,000.  Mr. Baumann’s base salary for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $437,610.  Beginning in 2013, Mr. Baumann’s annual target bonus opportunity will be $250,000.  Other information regarding Mr. Baumann is contained in Standard’s Definitive Proxy Statement for its annual meeting of stockholders filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2012.

Standard Parking Corporation Receives Clearance

to Close Merger with Central Parking Corporation

 

CHICAGO — Sept. 26, 2012 - Standard Parking Corporation (NASDAQ:  STAN), one of the nation’s leading providers of parking management, ground transportation and other ancillary services, today announced that it has reached agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) regarding Standard Parking’s merger with Central Parking Corporation.  As part of the agreement, Standard Parking and Central Parking have entered into a Stipulation and a Proposed Final Judgment with DOJ that will permit the merger to proceed upon court approval.  The parties expect to consummate the transaction promptly.

 

Under the terms of the Stipulation and the Proposed Final Judgment filed on September 26, 2012 in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, Standard Parking and Central Parking will divest contracts and any related interests covering slightly more than 100 off street parking facilities.  The contracts, which include both leases and management agreements, will be sold, terminated or permitted to expire without renewal.  After the contracts and any related interests are divested, the combined entity will continue to manage the parking operations of more than 4,200 parking facilities located throughout the United States.  The agreement with DOJ also will lead to the termination of the Waiting Period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act of 1976.

 

“We are pleased that DOJ has completed its antitrust review of the merger and that we’ve been able to reach an agreement that satisfies DOJ’s concerns,” said James A. Wilhelm, President and Chief Executive Officer of Standard Parking Corporation. “We look forward to closing the merger and moving forward with our integration plans so that we can realize the transaction’s anticipated benefits for our clients, customers and stockholders.”

 

Standard Parking intends to close the transaction in conjunction with the end of its 2012 third quarter.  On October 1, the first business day on which Standard Parking and Central Parking will operate jointly, the management team will provide further information regarding the transaction’s closing.
