GEO Merger Update As previously announced on April 19, 2010, the Company and The GEO Group Inc. (NYSE: GEO) entered into a definitive merger agreement, pursuant to which GEO would acquire all of the outstanding common stock of the Company. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, stockholders of Cornell will have the option to elect to receive either (x) 1.3 shares of GEO common stock for each share of Cornell common stock or (y) an amount of cash consideration equal to the greater of (i) the fair market value of one share of GEO common stock plus $6.00 or (ii) the fair market value of 1.3 shares of GEO common stock. In order to preserve the tax-deferred treatment of the transaction, no more than 20% of the outstanding shares of Cornell common stock may be exchanged for the cash consideration. If elections are made such that the aggregate cash consideration to be received by Cornell stockholders would exceed $100 million in the aggregate, such excess amount may be paid at the election of GEO in shares of GEO common stock or in cash. The merger is expected to close in the third quarter of 2010, subject to the approval of the issuance of GEO common stock by GEO’s shareholders, approval of the transaction by Cornell’s stockholders and federal regulatory agencies, as well as the fulfillment of other customary terms and conditions.
