[1] | Dividends paid are net of dividends forfeited on unvested shares of restricted stock.
[2] On February 26, 2020 (the "Effective Date"), the Company and its then Chief Executive Officer (“former CEO”) entered into an amended and restated executive retirement agreement that amends the former CEO’s executive retirement agreement. The amended and restated executive retirement agreement provided that upon the former CEO’s retirement from the Company, the Company would pay a lump sum amount initially equal to $8,925,065 (the “Grandfathered Payment”) which was to be paid in the form of a fixed number of shares of the Company’s common stock. The fair value of the Grandfathered Payment was reclassified to stockholders’ equity. Additional shares of the Company’s common stock were credited with a value equal to any dividends declared and paid on the Company’s shares of common stock, calculated by reference to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the payment date for such dividends (rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares). On the Effective Date, an amount equal to the Grandfathered Payment was invested in the Company’s common stock (“GEO Shares”). The number of the Company’s shares of common stock as of the Effective Date was equal to the Grandfathered Payment divided by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Effective Date (rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares), which equaled 553,665 shares of the Company’s common stock. Additional shares of the Company’s common stock are credited with a value equal to any dividends declared and paid on the Company’s shares of common stock, calculated by reference to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the payment date for such dividends (rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares). The Company and its former CEO entered into on May 27, 2021, and effective as of July 1, 2021, an Amended and Restated Executive Retirement Agreement which replaced the February 26, 2020 agreement discussed above. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Executive Retirement Agreement, upon the date that the former CEO ceases to provide services to the Company, the Company will pay to the former CEO an amount equal to $3,600,000 which shall be paid in cash. As the former CEO’s retirement payment will no longer be settled with a fixed number of shares of GEO’s common stock, $3,600,000 has been reclassed from equity to other non-current liabilities. Refer to Note 11 – Commitments, Contingencies and Other Matters for further information.
[3] | During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company withheld shares through net share settlements to satisfy statutory tax withholding requirements upon vesting of shares of restricted stock held by employees.
Dividends Declared | During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, GEO declared and paid the following regular cash distributions to its shareholders as follows:
