PR Newswire (US)
TRENTON, N.J., July 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Clark Holdings Inc.
(Amex: GLA; GLA.U; GLA.WS) ("Clark"), formerly known as Global
Logistics Acquisition Corporation, announced today that The
American Stock Exchange ("AMEX") has approved the continued listing
of Clark's securities on AMEX pursuant to AMEX's Alternative
Listing Standards. The AMEX Listing Qualifications Panel conducted
a hearing on the basis of written submissions and on July 3, 2008,
AMEX notified Clark that the AMEX Panel had authorized the
continued listing of Clark's securities on AMEX, notwithstanding
that Clark does not fully satisfy AMEX's regular Initial Listing
Standards. The AMEX Panel's decision was based on Clark's
satisfaction of the AMEX Alternative Listing Standard set forth in
Section 1203(c)(i)(A) of the AMEX Company Guide and its finding
that Clark's long history of operations in the transportation
management and logistics area (via the operating company acquired
by Global Logistics Acquisition Corporation in February 2008), its
immediate plans to increase the number of public shareholders, as
well as its current growth strategy and financial performance are
mitigating factors which warrant listing pursuant to AMEX's
Alternative Listing Standards. As previously reported, on February
15, 2008 AMEX notified Clark that it did not comply with AMEX's
initial listing standards (applicable under Section 341 of the AMEX
Company Guide) because Clark did not have a minimum of 400 public
shareholders, as set forth in Section 102(a) of the AMEX Company
Guide, and that its securities were, therefore, subject to
delisting from AMEX. Clark's market capitalization, distribution,
stock price and aggregate market value of shares publicly held do
not currently satisfy the criteria of the regular Initial Listing
Standards specified in Sections 101(a)-(d) of the AMEX Company
Guide. Clark's common stock, units and warrants will continue to be
listed on AMEX under the symbols GLA, GLA.U, and GLA.WS,
respectively. About Clark Over its 30-year history, Clark has built
a position as the leading independent provider of value-added
distribution, transportation management, and international air and
ocean freight forwarding services to the print media industry.
