the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December&nbsp;31, 2023 and 2022, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Basis for Opinion </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan&#146;s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan&#146;s financial
statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We conducted our audits in accordance
with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Plan is not
required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan&#146;s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis,
evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Plan&#146;s management, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. </P>

procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Plan&#146;s financial statements. The supplemental information is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but included
supplemental information required by the Department of Labor&#146;s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Plan&#146;s
management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and
accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with the
Department of Labor&#146;s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the

and regulations of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#147;Code&#148;), and is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (&#147;ERISA&#148;). </P>

&#147;multiple employer&#148; plan as described in Section&nbsp;413(c) of the Code. The Plan allows other affiliated employers to participate in the Plan (&#147;Participating Employers&#148;), as it deems appropriate. All Participating Employers
must adopt the Plan as written, including but not limited to, using the same Trustee, incurring the same expense rate, and contributing at the same rates and same times. Participating Employers are: TransCor America, LLC; Correctional Medicine
Associates, PC; Correctional Medicine Associates of TX, PA; Correctional Medicine Associates of Colorado, PC; Correctional Medicine Associates of California, PC; CCA Health Services, LLC; Correctional Dental Associates, PC; Correctional Dental
Associates of Florida, PA; Correctional Dental Associates of Colorado, PC; and, Stephen Merrill, DMD, PC. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Eligibility </B></P>

defined by the Plan, are eligible for participation in the Plan on the quarterly entry date (January 1, April&nbsp;1, July&nbsp;1, or October 1) following the date they meet these eligibility requirements. </P>

contribute up to 90% of their <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-tax</FONT> compensation, as defined by the Plan. The Plan also allows eligible participants to make Catch Up Contributions (as defined by the Economic Growth and Tax Relief
Reconciliation Act of 2001 (&#147;EGTRRA&#148;)). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">During 2023, CoreCivic provided a Safe Harbor matching contribution equal to 100% of each
employee&#146;s eligible <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">bi-weekly</FONT> compensation, up to 5% of the employee&#146;s eligible bi-weekly compensation. The Plan indicates CoreCivic may provide discretionary employer contributions in addition to
the Safe Harbor matching contributions. CoreCivic did not provide such discretionary contributions during 2023. CoreCivic did provide a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-elective</FONT> fringe contribution to certain employees at &#147;Service
Contract Act&#148; (&#147;SCA&#148;) locations in 2023. Those <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-elective</FONT> contributions are 100% vested immediately. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>
