Ladies and Gentlemen:

APCOA/Standard Parking, Inc., a company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware ("the Company"), proposes to make an offer (the "Exchange Offer") to exchange up to $59,285,000 aggregate principal amount of its 14% Senior Subordinated Second Lien Notes due 2006 (the "New Notes") for all of the Company's outstanding 14% Senior Subordinated Second Lien Notes due 2006 (the "Old Notes"). The terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer as currently contemplated are set forth in a prospectus (the "Prospectus" included in the Company's registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-86008) as amended (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")), and proposed to be distributed to all record holders of the Old Notes. The Old Notes and the New Notes are collectively referred to herein as the "Notes" or the "Securities." Capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Prospectus or the accompanying Letter of Transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal").

The Company hereby appoints Wilmington Trust Company to act as exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent") in connection with the Exchange Offer. References hereinafter to "you" shall refer to Wilmington Trust Company.

The Exchange Offer is expected to be commenced by the Company on or about , 2002. The Letter of Transmittal accompanying the Prospectus is to be used by the holders of the Old Notes to accept the Exchange Offer, and contains instructions with respect to the delivery of Old Notes tendered. The Exchange Agent's obligations with respect to receipt and inspection of the Letter of Transmittal in connection with the Exchange Offer shall be satisfied for all purposes hereof by (1) inspection of the electronic message transmitted to the Exchange Agent by Exchange Offer participants in accordance with the Automated Tender Offer Program ("ATOP") of the Depositary Trust Company ("DTC"), and by otherwise observing and complying with all procedures established by DTC in connection with ATOP, to the extent that ATOP is utilized by Exchange Offer participants, or (2) inspection of the Letter of Transmittal from each respective holder of the Old Notes.

The Exchange Offer shall expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2002 or on such later date or time to which the Company may extend the Exchange Offer (the "Expiration Date"). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus, the Company expressly reserves the right to extend the Exchange Offer from time to time and may extend the Exchange Offer by giving oral (confirmed in writing) or written notice to you at any time before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the business day following the previously scheduled Expiration Date, and in such case the term "Expiration Date" shall mean the time and date on which such Exchange Offer as so extended shall expire.

The Company expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to delay, amend or terminate the Exchange Offer, and not to accept for exchange any Old Notes not theretofore accepted for exchange, in among other cases upon the occurrence of any of the conditions of the Exchange Offer specified in the Prospectus under the caption "The Exchange Offer—Expiration Date; Extensions; Termination; Amendments." The Company will give to you as promptly as practicable oral (confirmed in writing) or written notice of any delay, amendment, termination or non-acceptance.

In carrying out your duties as Exchange Agent, you are to act in accordance with the following instructions:

1. You will perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth herein or in the section of the Prospectus captioned the "The Exchange Offer", in the Letter of Transmittal accompanying the Prospectus and such duties which are necessarily incidental thereto.

2. You will establish a book-entry account with respect to the Old Notes at The Depository Trust Company (the "Book-Entry Transfer Facility") for purposes of the Exchange Offer within two business days after the date of the Prospectus, and any financial institution that is a participant in the Book-Entry Transfer Facility's systems may make book-entry delivery of the Old Notes by causing the Book-Entry Transfer Facility to transfer such Old Notes into your account in accordance with the Book-Entry Transfer Facility's procedure for such transfer.

3. You are to examine each of the Letters of Transmittal and certificates for Old Notes (or confirmation of book-entry transfers into your account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility) and any other documents delivered or mailed to you by or for holders of the Old Notes to ascertain whether: (i) the Letters of Transmittal, certificates and any such other documents are duly executed and properly completed in accordance with instructions set forth therein and in the Prospectus and that such book-entry confirmations are in due and proper form and contain the information required to be set forth therein, and (ii) the Old Notes have otherwise been properly tendered. In each case where the Letter of Transmittal or any other document has been improperly completed or executed or where book-entry confirmations are not in due and proper form or omit certain information or any of the certificates for Old Notes are not in proper form for transfer or some other irregularity in connection with the acceptance of the Exchange Offer exists, you will endeavor to inform the presenters of the need for fulfillment of all requirements and to take any other action as may be necessary or advisable to cause such irregularity to be corrected.

4. With the approval of the Chief Financial Officer or any Vice President of the Company (such approval, if given orally, promptly to be confirmed in writing) or any other party designated by such officer in writing, you are authorized to waive any irregularities in connection with any tender of Old Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer. You are not otherwise authorized to waive any such irregularities.

5. Tenders of Old Notes may be made only as set forth in the Letter of Transmittal and in the section of the Prospectus captioned "The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering" and Old Notes shall be considered properly tendered to you only when tendered in accordance with the procedures set forth therein.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph 5, Old Notes which the Chief Financial Officer or any Vice President of the Company or any other party designated by any such officer in writing shall approve as having been properly tendered shall be considered to be properly tendered (such approval, if given orally, promptly shall be confirmed in writing).

6. You shall promptly advise the Company with respect to any Old Notes delivered subsequent to the Expiration Date and accept its instructions with respect to disposition of such Old Notes.

7. You shall accept tenders:

(a) in cases where the Old Notes are registered in two or more names only if signed by all named holders;

(b) in cases where the signing person (as indicated on the Letter of Transmittal) is acting in a fiduciary or a representative capacity only when proper evidence of his or her authority so to act is submitted; and

(c) from persons other than the registered holder of Old Notes provided that customary transfer requirements, including any required endorsement of the Old Note or delivery of a properly completed bond power, in either case duly executed by each registered holder, and payment of applicable transfer taxes, are fulfilled.

You shall accept partial tenders of Old Notes where so indicated and as permitted in the Letter of Transmittal and deliver certificates for Old Notes to the transfer agent for split-up and return any untendered Old Notes to the holder (or such other person as may be designated in the Letter of Transmittal) as promptly as practicable after expiration or termination of the Exchange Offer.

8. Upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the Exchange Offer, the Company will notify you (such notice if given orally, promptly to be confirmed in writing) of its acceptance, promptly after the Expiration Date, of all Old Notes properly tendered and you, on behalf of the Company, will exchange such Old Notes for New Notes and cause such Old Notes to be canceled. Delivery of New Notes will be made on behalf of the Company by you at the rate of $1,000 principal amount of New Notes for each $1,000 principal amount of the Old Notes tendered promptly after notice (such notice if given orally, promptly to be confirmed in writing) of acceptance of said Old Notes by the Company; provided, however, that in all cases, Old Notes tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer will be exchanged only after timely receipt by you of certificates for such Old Notes (or confirmation of book-entry transfer into your account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility), a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (or facsimile thereof or an Agent's Message in lieu thereof) with any required signature guarantees and any other required document. Unless otherwise instructed in writing by the Company, you shall issue New Notes only in denominations of $100 or any integral multiple thereof; provided, that to the extent that the amount of New Notes to be issued to tendering holders of Old Notes is greater than $1,000 in principal amount, the New Notes shall be issued in multiples of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Old Notes, with the remaining principal amount issued in denominations of $100 or any integral multiple thereof.

9. Tenders pursuant to the Exchange Offer are irrevocable, except that, subject to the terms and upon the conditions set forth in the Prospectus and the Letter of Transmittal, Old Notes tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be withdrawn at any time on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer.

10. The Company shall not be required to exchange any Old Notes tendered if any of the conditions of the Exchange Offer are not met. Notice of any decision by the Company not to exchange any Old Notes tendered shall be given (such notices if given orally, promptly shall be confirmed in writing) by the Company to you.

11. If, pursuant to the Exchange Offer, the Company does not accept for exchange all or part of the Old Notes tendered because of an invalid tender, the occurrence of certain other events set forth in the Prospectus or otherwise, you shall as soon as practicable after the expiration or termination of the Exchange Offer return those certificates for unaccepted Old Notes (or effect appropriate book-entry transfer), together with any related required documents and the Letters of Transmittal relating thereto that are in your possession, to the persons who deposited them (or effected such book-entry transfer).

12. All certificates for reissued Old Notes, unaccepted Old Notes or New Notes (other than those effected by book-entry transfer) shall be forwarded by (a) first-class mail, postage pre-paid under a blanket surety bond protecting you and the Company from loss or liability arising out of the non-receipt or non-delivery of such certificates or (b) by registered mail insured separately for the replacement value of each of such certificates.
