The Depot stated
the essence of the agreement is the provision
that the entire inventory on hand at time of termination is to be
retained
by the manufacturer at
a pre-agreed price.
A schedule
contained in the contract sets forth the exact amount -to be paid
to
the government for such inventory and work in process.
The
amount will vary with the stage of contract at which termination
takes place.
The retention price paid by the manufacturer covers
all cost which may be chargeable by the manufacturer to the gov-eminent because of the ending of the contract.
Alternate methods of settling claims of sub-contractors and suppliers
Of Botany Mills are provided.
Such claims are to be settled either
by the: prime contractor himself or by the government dealing directly
with the sub-contractor.
The method to be used will be decided by
the contracting officer of the Depot.
The agrement states the gov¬
ernment will pay for all work done under contract and will accept
at contract price all finished items on hand "at date of termination.

after the disposal of Louisville

bring into the merger would be approximately $5,800,000 on a
consolidated basis, which would be equal to $1.12 a share on 5,159,826
shares of new common which would be oustanding upon the consum¬
mation of the plan of Standard Gas and the settlement with Standard
Power.
'A n." < ;
Referring to the negotiations for the sale of the Kentucky properties
to City of Louisville,. the Commission's opinion said:'^Should the
transaction be consummated at the minimum- price GAC. Mathews
(Vice-President of Standard Gas) indicated as its selling price, that is
would

share for Louisville of Kentucky stock (including its invest¬
Kentucky West Virginia Co.) after all taxes, if any, it is
estimated that t Standard Gas would realize approximately $10,300,000
from, the sale of Louisville of Kentucky and the liquidation of Louis¬
ville of Delaware.
However, should the discussion with the city offi¬
cials of Louisville fail to materialize in a sale to the city, the record
indicates that aside from any difference in the proceeds if the securi¬
ties were distributed .to the. public there would be substantial distribu¬
tion costs, and thus Standard Gas would not realize as high a figure."
All proceeds of the sale of capital assets by Standard, other than
42,090 shares of Oklahoma Gas & Electric common which standard
has heretofore contracted to sell, will be applied to the payment of the
accrued Interest on, and the principal of, the bank notes.
In a dissenting opinion, Judge Healy disagreed with
the majority
in its conclusion that any part of the new common stock of Standard
Gas should go to stockholders junior
to the prior preference stock.
Judge Healy contended
that the prior preference stockholders are
entitled to be compensated in full for their rights before the junior
preferred stock or the common stock is accorded any participation.
