Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 25, 2012, Standard Parking Corporation (“Standard”) entered into interest rate swap transactions (collectively, the “Interest Rate Swaps”) with each of JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (“JPM”), Bank of America, N.A. (“BofA”) and PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC” and, together with JPM and BofA, the “Banks”) in an initial aggregate notional amount of $150,000,000 (the “Notional Amount”).  The Interest Rate Swaps have an effective date of October 31, 2012 and a termination date of September 30, 2017.

 

The Interest Rate Swaps effectively fix the interest rate on an amount of variable interest rate borrowings under the Credit Agreement, dated as of October 2, 2012 (the “Credit Agreement”), among Standard, BofA, as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and JPM., as co-syndication agents, U.S. Bank National Association, First Hawaiian Bank and General Electric Capital Corporation, as co-documentation agents, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as joint lead arrangers and joint book managers, and the lenders party thereto, originally equal to the Notional Amount at 0.7525% per annum plus the applicable margin rate for LIBOR loans under the Credit Agreement determined based upon Standard’s consolidated total debt to EBITDA ratio. The Notional Amount is subject to scheduled quarterly amortization that coincides with quarterly prepayments of principal under the Credit Agreement.
