Item 1. Security and Issuer.
This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC) on February 12, 2008 and Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on April 23, 2009 by (i) Fifth Third Bancorp, an Ohio corporation (Bancorp), (ii) Fifth Third Bank, an Ohio banking
corporation (Fifth Third Bank); (iii) Fifth Third Bank, a Michigan banking corporation (Fifth Third Michigan); (iv) Fifth Third Asset Management, Inc., an Ohio corporation that is registered as an investment adviser
(Fifth Third Asset), and (v) Fifth Third Securities, Inc., an Ohio corporation that is registered as a broker dealer (Fifth Third Securities), with respect to the common stock, $1.00 par value per share (the Common
Stock), of The Standard Register Company, an Ohio corporation (the Company), the principal executive offices of which are located at 600 Albany Street, Dayton, Ohio 45408.
In addition to the Common Stock, the Company has outstanding a class of stock called Class A Stock, $1.00 par value per
share. Each share of Class A Stock entitles the holder to cast five votes on matters submitted to the holders of Common Stock and Class A Stock, who vote as a single class. Each share of Class A Stock is convertible into one share of
Common Stock.
This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D is being filed by Bancorp and Fifth Third Bank (collectively referred
to herein as the Reporting Persons) to report their beneficial ownership of Common Stock, as described below. Effective as of September 30, 2009, Fifth Third Michigan merged with and into Fifth Third Bank. Fifth Third Asset and
Fifth Third Securities reported in Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D that they had each ceased to be a beneficial owner of Common Stock. Consequently, Fifth Third Michigan, Fifth Third Asset and Fifth Third Securities are no longer reporting
persons under this Schedule 13D.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
(a)-(c), (f) This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D is filed jointly by the Reporting Persons. Fifth Third Bank is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Bancorp. The address of the principal business office of Bancorp and Fifth Third Bank is 38 Fountain Square Plaza, Cincinnati, Ohio 45263.
Fifth Third Bank serves as trustee of a testamentary trust (the WCS Testamentary Trust) established under the will of William C. Sherman, deceased. The income beneficiary of the WCS
Testamentary Trust is Helen Margaret Hook Clarke. The WCS Testamentary Trust holds an aggregate of 519,062 shares of Common Stock and 216,278 shares of Class A Stock. As trustee, Fifth Third Bank has sole voting and dispositive power with
respect to these shares of Common Stock and Class A Stock.
Fifth Third Bank also serves as trustee under an inter-vivos
trust established by a trust indenture executed on December 29, 1939 by William C. Sherman (the WCS Trust, and
-4-
together with the WCS Testamentary Trust, the Trusts). The income beneficiaries under the WCS Trust are Helen Margaret Hook Clarke and the children of John Q. Sherman. The WCS Trust
holds an aggregate of 514,382 of Common Stock and 214,325 shares of Class A Stock. As trustee, Fifth Third Bank has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to these shares of Common Stock and Class A Stock .
The information called for by this Item with respect to each of the executive officers and directors of the Reporting Persons is provided
on Exhibit 2 attached hereto. Each of these executive officers and directors is a citizen of the United States.
(d)-(e) During the last five years, except as described in the following paragraph, none of (i) the Reporting Persons or
(ii) the persons listed on Exhibit 2 has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and
as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such
laws.
On November 22, 2011, the SEC issued an Order that Bancorp cease and desist from committing or causing any
violations and any future violations of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and SEC Regulation FD, 17 C.F.R. § 243.100,
et seq.
The Order arose out of Bancorps selective to certain investors that
it would be redeeming a class of its trust preferred securities in violation of Regulation FD. The Order issued following Bancorps submission of an Offer of Settlement which the SEC determined to accept.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
The Reporting Persons have beneficial ownership of the Common Stock and Class A Stock reported to be beneficially owned by them in this Schedule 13D through fiduciary accounts. As a result, the
Reporting Persons acquired their beneficial ownership of the Common Stock reported in Item 5 by being trustee of a trust into which the settlor transferred the Common Stock.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
A. The Voting Agreement and the Shareholders
Agreement
Voting Agreement
. On August 1, 2013, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding
membership interests of WorkflowOne LLC (Workflow) for a purchase price of $1.00 plus the assumption by the Company of certain indebtedness of Workflow (the Acquisition). In connection with the Acquisition, the Company has
granted warrants to purchase Common Stock of the Company (the Warrants) to certain of Workflows lenders in exchange for partial forgiveness of Workflows indebtedness to such lenders. The exercise of the
-5-
Warrants is subject to approval by the Companys shareholders, as required under applicable rules of The New York Stock Exchange.
As a condition to the Acquisition, the Trusts were required to enter into a Voting Agreement (the Voting Agreement), dated as
of August 1, 2013, with the Company, Silver Point Capital, L.P., as Lenders Representative (as defined in the Voting Agreement), and the John Q. Sherman Trust (as defined in Item 5 below). The Voting Agreement is included with this
filing as Exhibit 3. Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, the Trusts and the John Q. Sherman Trust have severally agreed to vote the shares of Common Stock and Class A Stock held by them at any meeting of shareholders of the Company, or to deliver
executed written consents, (i) in favor of obtaining Company Shareholder Approval (as defined below), (ii) against any action or agreement submitted for the vote or written consent of the Companys shareholders that is in opposition
to, or competitive or inconsistent with, certain transactions that will take place in connection with the Acquisition, and (iii) against certain other transactions or actions described in the Voting Agreement.
For purposes of the Voting Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement described below, the term Company Shareholder Approval
refers to the votes of the holders of securities of the Company which are required to approve certain transactions relating to the Acquisition, including (i) a proposal to amend the Companys code of regulations to opt out of the Ohio
Control Share Acquisition Act (O.R.C. §1701.831) (the Opt Out Proposal), (ii) a proposal to authorize the Companys Board of Directors (the Board) to increase the number of directors and fill any vacancy
created by such increase, and (iii) a proposal to approve the contemplated issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrants. The Trusts and the John Q. Sherman Trust have appointed the Company, pursuant to the Voting Agreement,
as the proxy for each of such trusts to secure performance of their respective obligations under the Voting Agreement with respect to the shares of Common Stock and Class A Stock held by them.
The Trusts and the John Q. Sherman Trust may be deemed to share voting power with the Company as a result of having appointed the Company
as their proxy as to those matters.
Shareholders Agreement
. As a further condition to the Acquisition, the Trusts and
the John Q. Sherman Trust were required to enter into a Shareholders Agreement (the Shareholders Agreement), dated as of August 1, 2013, with the Company, Silver Point Capital, L.P (the Minority Shareholder
Representative), and the Minority Shareholders (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement). The Shareholders Agreement is included as Exhibit 4 to this filing. Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, the Trusts and the John Q. Sherman Trust
have severally agreed, if the Opt-Out Proposal is approved by the requisite vote of the Companys shareholders or if the Voting Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms (whichever occurs earlier), to (i) cause all shares of
Common Stock and Class A Stock held by it to be present in person or by proxy at all meetings of shareholders of the Company for quorum purposes and (ii) vote all such shares in favor of any Minority Shareholder Designee (as defined in the
Shareholders Agreement) nominated by the Companys governance committee and against the removal of any Minority Shareholder Designee nominated by the Companys governance
-6-
committee. The Shareholders Agreement also provides that if any of the Trusts or the John Q. Sherman Trust (a Tag-Along Seller) proposes to transfer any of its shares of Common Stock
or Class A Stock in a transaction that would result in a Change of Control Transaction (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement) (a Tag-Along Sale), each of the Minority Shareholders would then have the right to include a number of
its shares of Common Stock or Warrants in the Tag-Along Sale for the same per share consideration and upon substantially similar terms and conditions to be paid to the Tag-Along Seller.
The Shareholders Agreement requires that the Company immediately cause two individuals designated by the Minority Shareholders (the
Minority Shareholder Observers) to be observers on the Companys Board. Following receipt of Company Shareholder Approval, the Company is required to increase the size of the Board by two directors and to cause the election of the
Minority Shareholder Observers to be appointed as directors of the Company. If Company Shareholder Approval is not obtained within a specified period of time, the Company is obligated to take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to cause
the election of two Minority Shareholder Observers, designated by the Minority Shareholder Representative, to the Board at the next annual meeting of shareholders or, if the Minority Shareholders no longer beneficially own, in the aggregate, 66% or
more of the Minority Shares (as defined in the Shareholders Agreement), to take commercially reasonable actions to cause the election of one Minority Shareholder Observer, designated by the Minority Shareholder Representative, to the Board at the
next annual meeting of shareholders. Thereafter, and for so long as the Minority Shareholders continue to beneficially own, in the aggregate, 66% or more of the Minority Shares, the Minority Shareholder Representative, on behalf of the Minority
Shareholders, will have the right to designate two directors for election to the Board. If the Minority Shareholders beneficially own, in the aggregate, 10% or more of the Companys outstanding Equity Securities of the Company (as defined in
the Shareholders Agreement) or less than 10% of the outstanding Equity Securities but 33% or more of the Minority Shares, then the Minority Shareholder Representative, on behalf of the Minority Shareholders, will have the right to designate one
director for election to the Board. If ownership by the Minority Shareholders of Equity Securities of the Company falls below certain specified thresholds one or both of the such designees may be required to resign from the Board.
The Shareholders Agreement terminates (a) upon the mutual written agreement of the Company and the Minority Shareholder
Representative under the Shareholders Agreement or (b) at the first annual meeting following such time as the Minority Shareholder Representative, on behalf of the Minority Shareholders, no longer has the right to designate a member of the
Board. With respect to any specific Minority Shareholder or Majority Shareholder (including each of the Trusts), the Shareholders Agreement will terminate as to such specific shareholder when such shareholder no longer owns any Equity Securities of
the Company.
The Company has also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2013, with the
Trusts, the John Q. Sherman Trust and the Minority Shareholders, pursuant to which the Company has granted to these persons certain rights for registration of
-7-
their shares of Common Stock, including shares issued upon conversion of the Warrants, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The foregoing descriptions of the Voting Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement are intended to be summaries and are qualified in their
entirety to the full text of these agreements, which are included with this filing as Exhibits 3 and 4, respectively.
B. Plans of
Reporting Persons
In the exercise of their fiduciary duties to their clients, the Reporting Persons continue to follow
the Companys financial performance and developments. Representatives of the Reporting Persons have met with the Companys management from time to time and expect to maintain a continuing dialogue with management regarding, among other
things, the Companys operations, strategic direction, the extent to which it is achieving its current business plan, its capital structure and corporate governance and the Reporting Persons expectation that management of the Company will
continue to pursue appropriate measures to enhance shareholder value. In addition, the Reporting Persons may from time to time communicate with other persons regarding the Company, including, without limitation, the Board and other shareholders of
the Company, including the trustees of the John Q. Sherman Trust and the other parties to the Voting Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement. As a result of the transactions described in this Item 4 pertaining to the Acquisition, the Reporting
Persons are expected to engage in ongoing communications with management and the other parties to the Voting Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement with respect to these agreements and the transactions contemplated by these agreements.
The Reporting Persons have monitored and will continue to monitor and assess, among other things, (i) the financial condition,
operations, prospects and management of the Company, (ii) the extent to which the Company is achieving its announced business plans including its combination with Workflow, (iii) the value and price of the Common Stock, (iv) relevant
business developments, competitive and strategic matters and prevailing industry and market conditions, and (v) other investment considerations. On the basis of such assessments, the Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time,
subject to any limitations imposed by the Voting Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement while those agreements are in effect, take such actions with respect to their investment in the Company as they deem appropriate, including, without
limitation, (i) proposing measures which they believe would enhance shareholder value, (ii) seeking representation on, or otherwise influencing the composition of, the Board, (iii) proposing or otherwise seeking to effect an
extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation involving the Company and its subsidiaries or a sale of a material amount of assets of the Company or of any of its subsidiaries; (iv) proposing or otherwise
seeking to effect any other material change in the Companys business or corporate structure; (v) proposing or otherwise seeking to effect changes in the Companys articles of incorporation, code of regulations or instruments
corresponding thereto, or (vi) taking any action
-8-
similar to the foregoing. Except with respect to the Acquisition, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the foregoing actions.
In addition, the Reporting Persons intend to continue to review their holdings of Common Stock and Class A Stock on a
continuing basis in accordance with their fiduciary duties to their clients. The Reporting Persons may from time to time purchase additional shares of Common Stock, or, subject to the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement and the Voting Agreement
while those agreements are in effect, dispose of all or a portion of the shares held by them. Any such additional purchases or sales of securities of the Company may be in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The
factors that the Reporting Persons may consider in evaluating their investment position with respect to the Company include the following: (i) the Companys business and prospects, including its success in integrating the operations of
Workflow; (ii) the business strategy and actions of management and the Board to enhance value to the shareholders; (iii) the value of the Common Stock and the availability of the Common Stock for purchase at particular price levels;
(iv) market and other limitations on the ability to dispose of the Reporting Persons Common Stock; (v) general economic conditions; (vi) stock market and money market conditions; (vii) other business and investment
opportunities available to the Reporting Persons; and (viii) other plans and requirements of the Reporting Persons. Depending on their assessment of the foregoing factors, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, modify their present
intention as stated in this Item 4.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
A. Interests of the Reporting Persons
(a)-(b) The Reporting Persons beneficially own, in the aggregate, 1,033,444 shares of Common Stock, representing 19.7% of the Companys outstanding shares of Common Stock (based upon a total of
5,232,908 shares of Common Stock stated by the Company to be outstanding as of May 9, 2013, as reported in Exhibit 99.1 to the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 9, 2013), and 430,603 shares of Class A Stock,
representing 45.6% of the Companys outstanding Class A Stock (based upon a total of 945,000 shares of Class A Stock stated by the Company to be outstanding as of May 9, 2013, as reported in Exhibit 99.1 to the Companys
Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 9, 2013). Assuming conversion of all shares of Class A Stock into shares of Common Stock, Bancorp and Fifth Third Bank would own, in the aggregate, 1,464,047 shares of Common Stock, representing
23.7% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock (including the 945,000 shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Class A Stock).
(i) Bancorp, by virtue of its ownership of Fifth Third Bank, may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the Common Stock and Class A Stock beneficially owned by Fifth Third Bank. For solely that
reason, the shares of Common Stock and Class A Stock beneficially owned by Fifth Third Bank are also being reported as beneficially owned by Bancorp.
-9-
(ii) Fifth Third Bank holds an aggregate of 1,033,444 shares of Common Stock and 430,603
shares of Class A Stock. These shares are held as follows:
(A) Fifth Third Bank, as trustee of WCS Testamentary Trust,
has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares of Common Stock and Class A Stock held in such trust. The WCS Testamentary Trust holds an aggregate of 519,062 shares of Common Stock and 216,278 shares of Class A Stock.
(B) Fifth Third Bank, as trustee under the WCS Trust, has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares of
Common Stock and Class A Stock held in such trust. The WCS Trust holds an aggregate of 514,382 shares of Common Stock and 214,325 shares of Class A Stock.
B. Persons Who May Be Deemed Part of a Group With the Reporting Persons
By entering into the Voting Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement, the Trusts could be deemed to be acting as a group, within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act, with the John
Q. Sherman Trust. The Reporting Persons have been advised by the John Q. Sherman Trust that such trust will be filing its own Schedule 13D with the SEC.
As of August 1, 2013, based on information provided by the John Q. Sherman Trust to the Reporting Persons, the John Q. Sherman Trust held 1,162,098 shares of Common Stock and 503,370 shares of
Class A Stock. The John Q. Sherman Trust holds such Common Stock and Class A Stock in separate, equal trusts for John Q. Shermans surviving children and the heirs of his deceased children. Each child or heir is a life beneficiary of
his or her respective trust. The will of John Q. Sherman requires the trustees of the John Q. Sherman Trust to give each beneficiary who is a child of John Q. Sherman, upon his or her request, a proxy allowing the beneficiary to vote the shares held
in his or her respective trust. As a beneficiary, James L. Sherman, a trustee of the John Q. Sherman Trust, has the right, upon his request, to vote the 193,683 shares of Common Stock and 83,895 shares of Class A Stock held in his own trust in
the John Q. Sherman Trust, and Mr. Shermans sister, Patricia L. Begley, has the right, upon her request, to vote the 193,683 shares of Common Stock and 83,895 shares of Class A Stock held in her own trust in the John Q. Sherman
Trust. By virtue of the foregoing, the trustees of the John Q. Sherman Trust (Roy G. Begley, Jr. and James L. Sherman) may be deemed to share voting and investment power for the securities in the trusts.
By entering into the Voting Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement, the Trusts could also be deemed to be acting as a group with the
Minority Shareholders under the Shareholders Agreement.
-10-
Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims membership in a group with any of the other
Reporting Persons, the John Q. Sherman Trust or its trustees, or the Minority Shareholders under the Shareholders Agreement. The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of
any of the shares of Common Stock that such Reporting Person may be deemed to beneficially own. In addition, the filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that any partner, member, director, officer or affiliate of any
Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of any of the shares of Common Stock that such partner, member, director, officer or affiliate may be deemed to beneficially own.
(c) None of the Reporting Persons has effected any transactions in the Common Stock during the past sixty days.
(d) Except for the Reporting Persons and the beneficiaries of the WCS Testamentary Trust and the WCS Trust, no person is known by the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct
the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
The discussion in Item 4 to this Schedule 13D, including the discussion of the Voting Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement, is
incorporated into this Item 6 by reference.
The will of William C. Sherman under which the WCS Testamentary Trust was
established (the WCS Will) provides as follows with respect to the authority of the trustee of the WCS Testamentary Trust to take action with respect to any stocks or other securities, including shares of the Company, held in the WCS
Testamentary Trust:
[The Trustee(s)] shall have the following powers, duties and directions
To consent to the reorganization, consolidation, readjustment of the financial structure, or sale of the assets, of any corporation
or other organization, the stocks or securities of which are owned by the Trustees and to take any action with reference to such stocks or securities which, in the opinion of the Trustees, is necessary to obtain the benefit of any such
reorganization, consolidation, readjustment or sale;
Provided, nevertheless, that my said Trustees shall exercise the power so granted to them hereunder that any action taken by them with reference to the shares of stock of The Standard
Register which I may own at my death, and which become a part of my Trust Estate hereunder, will not be inconsistent with any action taken in connection with similar stock of The Standard Register by the Trustee or Trustees of the Estate of my
deceased Brother, John Q. Sherman, or opposed to the best interests of the beneficiaries of either this, my Last Will and Testament, or the beneficiaries of my deceased Brothers Last Will and Testament.
-11-
Under the foregoing provision of the WCS Will, it is possible that Fifth Third Bank, in its
capacity as trustee under the WCS Testamentary Trust, would need to take into account the position of the John Q. Sherman Trust, before voting its shares of Common Stock and Class A Stock in the event the shareholders of the Company are asked
to approve a reorganization, consolidation, readjustment of the financial structure, or sale of the assets of the Company.
Except as otherwise described in Item 4 above or in this Item 6, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships between the persons named in Item 2 above and between
such persons and any other person with respect to any securities of the Company.
