Item 1. Security and Issuer.
This statement constitutes Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D relating to the Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Shares") of Michael Baker Corporation (the “Issuer”) and hereby amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on July 18, 2012 and the Schedule 13D/A filed with the SEC on December 19, 2012 (collectively, the "Schedule 13D"), on behalf of the Reporting Person (as defined in the Schedule 13D), to furnish the additional information set forth herein. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by the addition of the following:
The Reporting Person and the Issuer are engaging in preliminary discussions regarding possible strategic alternatives for the Issuer proposed by the Reporting Person. The Issuer and Gladiator Holdco LLC (“Gladiator”), an entity affiliated with the Reporting Person, have entered into a Confidentiality Agreement (see Item 6 below).
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
Gladiator entered into a Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2013 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), with the Issuer pursuant to which the Issuer will make available to Gladiator, as well as certain representatives and affiliates of the Reporting Person, certain nonpublic information regarding the Issuer. The Confidentiality Agreement continues through January 31, 2015, and contains, among other things, certain standstill provisions that apply to the Reporting Person and certain of his representatives and affiliates. The standstill provisions prohibit the Reporting Person from, among other things, acquiring additional shares of the Issuer’s common stock, entering into agreements regarding or soliciting proxies in connection with an acquisition of the Issuer, and seeking to influence the management of the Issuer in connection with any strategic alternatives. The standstill provisions terminate on March 31, 2014, but under certain circumstances, certain of these provisions may terminate before March 31, 2014.
The foregoing description of the Confidentiality Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Confidentiality Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.5 and is incorporated herein by reference.
