Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Underwriting Agreement. On November 9, 2009, Standard Parking Corporation
(the "Company") entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting
Agreement") with GSO Special Situations Fund LP, GSO Special Situations Overseas
Master Fund Ltd., GSO Special Situations Overseas Benefit Plan Fund Ltd., GSO
Capital Opportunities Fund LP, and CML VII, LLC (collectively, the "Selling
Stockholders") and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and William Blair &
Company, L.L.C., as representatives for the several underwriters (collectively,
the "Underwriters"), relating to the public offering of up to 6,592,906 shares
of the Company's common stock by the Selling Stockholders at a public offering
price of $16.00 per share. The Selling Stockholders also granted the
Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase an additional 988,936 shares of the
Company's common stock to cover over-allotments, if any.
The Underwriting Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and
covenants by the Company and the Selling Stockholders. It also provides for
customary indemnification by each of the Company, the Selling Stockholders and
the Underwriters against certain liabilities and customary contribution
provisions in respect of those liabilities. The foregoing description of the
material terms of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 1.1
and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the
Selling Stockholders. The offering is being made pursuant to the Company's
effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-161750) filed
with the SEC on October 6, 2009 (the "Registration Statement"), and a prospectus
which consists of a base prospectus and a prospectus supplement filed with the
SEC on November 10, 2009. The offering is expected to close on November 16,
2009, subject to customary closing conditions.
Certain of the Underwriters and their affiliates have provided, and may in
the future provide, various investment banking, commercial banking and other
financial services to us or the Company's affiliates for which they have
received, and may in the future receive, customary fees.
Amendment to Registration Rights Agreement. On June 2, 2004, the Company
entered into a registration rights agreement (the "Registration Rights
Agreement") with Steamboat Industries LLC ("Steamboat"), the Company's former
parent company. Steamboat transferred all of its rights under the Registration
Rights Agreement to the Selling Stockholders together with substantially all of
its Standard Parking common stock, and the Selling Stockholders agreed in
writing to be bound by the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. Pursuant
to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Selling Stockholders exercised their
demand registration rights before such rights terminated on May 27, 2009, and
the Registration Statement was filed pursuant to the Selling Stockholders'
demand notice to register all of the 7,581,842 shares of Standard Parking common
stock that they hold. On November 9, 2009, the Company and the
Selling Stockholders entered into Amendment No. 1 to Registration Rights
Agreement (the "Amendment") to cause the Registration Statement to remain
effective for a period of two years from the date the Registration Statement
became effective, which was October 6, 2009. Accordingly, the Company is
required to cause the Registration Statement to remain effective until
October 6, 2011 or until all 7,581,842 registered shares have been distributed,
whichever occurs first. In addition, in most circumstances when the Company
proposes to register any of its equity securities under the Securities Act
(other than pursuant to a demand registration mentioned above), the Selling
Stockholders will have the opportunity to register their shares of Standard
Parking common stock on such registration statement, subject to cut-backs
required by any underwriter. The registration rights terminate to the extent
these shares of common stock are sold in a public offering or when a Selling
Stockholder's shares all become eligible for sale under Rule 144 during any
consecutive 90-day period. The foregoing description of the material terms of
the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which
is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
