<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Company Overview  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cornell Companies,&nbsp;Inc. (the "Company") is a leading provider of privatized correctional, treatment and educational services outsourced by federal, state
and local government agencies. As the successor to entities that began developing adult secure institutional facilities in 1984, pre-release correctional and treatment facilities in 1974
and juvenile facilities in 1973, the Company provides a diversified portfolio of services for adults and juveniles through three operating divisions: (1)&nbsp;adult secure institutional services;
(2)&nbsp;juvenile treatment, educational and detention services and (3)&nbsp;pre-release correctional and treatment services. These services include incarceration and detention,
transition from incarceration, drug and alcohol treatment programs, behavioral rehabilitation and treatment, and K-12 education. The Company provides these essential services through its
69 facilities, in operation or under development, in 13 states and the District of Columbia. As of December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company's facilities provided for a total service capacity of
15,444. The Company's service capacity is comprised of the number of beds available for service upon completion of construction of residential facilities and the average program capacity of
non-residential community-based programs. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additional

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Correctional, detention and treatment programs are important government functions. In the United States, as the incarcerated and sentenced populations continue to
rise, and as federal, state and local governments face continuing pressures to control costs and improve service quality, there is a growing trend toward outsourcing of government services and
functions, including correctional, detention and treatment services. Outsourcing has historically faced opposition in the U.S.; however, public and government acceptance has increased as standards of
service improve and cost-savings are provided to the government. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While
juvenile and pre-release services have been outsourced for decades, the adult private prison industry in the U.S. began in 1984 as public authorities began to respond
to overcrowding pressures and budgetary constraints by exploring more efficient means of incarceration. Prison management companies offer the same range of services that governments have historically
provided to house and care for the needs of offenders. These services include facility design, construction management, health </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>services,
food services, security, transportation, education and rehabilitative programming. Governments engaging private companies typically receive these services at a lower cost than the public
authority could provide. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Recently,
several states have identified special needs and requirements for private operators. For example, both federal and state governments are considering and recommending
privatizing female prison beds. Some states, such as Arizona, have also identified other services for private management, such as geriatric and behavioral health incarcerated populations. </FONT></P>

<UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I> Prison Population Projections and Over Capacity/Overcrowding  </I></B></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Over the course of the past six months, many states that have seen a reduction in excess bed space capacity. According to the United States Department of Justice,
Bureau of Justice Statistics, or BJS, most states are operating at or over capacity, and most facilities are outdated. Some states, such as Wyoming and Arizona, have proposed building new prisons.
Special housing requirements for the rapidly increasing female incarcerated population has also resulted in a call for new facilities in other states such as Tennessee, Alabama and Arizona. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
according to the President of the United States 2004 Budget, the President has identified the private sector as a means for assisting the exploding federal government
populations. The budget states "The Bureau of Prisons is one of the fastest-growing arms of the federal government. In 1980, the bureau's budget was $330&nbsp;million, and there were 24,000 inmates
in 44 prisons. In 2002, the budget was $4.6&nbsp;billion, and there were 102 prisons. Eleven more federal prisons are in various stages of construction." </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
fact, during 2002, according to the BJS, the federal government became the largest prison system (approximately 165,000 inmates), overtaking both California (159,444 inmates) and
Texas (162,070 inmates). During 2001, states added a net total of 3,193 prisoners, and the federal prison system added 11,577 prisoners. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
2004 federal budget also addresses the need for private resources to assist the government. In fact, the budget states that "Today, 16&nbsp;percent of federal inmates are housed in
non-BOP prisons, approximately 13,000 are in privately managed prisons, and another 13,000 are in state and local correctional facilities. Just 1.5&nbsp;percent of federal inmates were
housed in non-BOP facilities 20&nbsp;years ago. Some years ago, the BOP committed to contracting out bedspace for certain low/minimum-security inmates. Currently, the BOP has contracted
bedspace for its criminal alien and juvenile inmate populations&#151;as these groups fall outside the normal classification of federal inmates. This year, BOP also developed a separate
classification for female inmates. Female offenders are mostly non-violent and generally do not require the same degree of security as male offenders. Therefore, contracting out for this
population is appropriate and can save millions in construction dollars and reduce female inmate crowding, currently estimated at 60&nbsp;percent above the number of inmates that facilities were
built to house. Funding requested in the President's 2003 Budget for construction of a secure female facility to be activated in 2005 is being proposed for rescission, so that funding to contract out
for new female inmate bedspace is being requested in 2004." </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Because
the BJS continues to report that as of December&nbsp;31, 2001, state prisons were operating between 1% and 16% above capacity, and federal prisons were operating at 31% above
capacity, Company management believes that targeted strategic development efforts offering solutions for financially overcrowded prison systems will offer long-term growth opportunities
for the Company. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;According
to reports issued by the BJS, the total number of prisoners under the jurisdiction of federal or state adult correctional authorities was 1,406,031 at year-end
2001. Overall, the United States incarcerated 2,100,146 persons at year-end 2001, including populations held in local jails and other facilities. During 2001, states added a net of 3,193
prisoners, and the
Federal prison system added 11,577 prisoners. The U.S. prison population grew at an overall rate of 1.1%. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;According
to the American Correctional Association, the adult prison management industry encompassing federal, state and local jails, spent over $50&nbsp;billion to house its
incarcerated population. As of December&nbsp;31, 2001, the BJS reported that privately operated facilities housed 91,828 inmates (5.8% of state and 12.3% of federal inmates); local jails housed
70,681 state and federal inmates (5.0% of all prisoners). This represents an increase of approximately 3,000 inmates in 2001 from 2000. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Industry
wide, jail expenditures are expected to increase at least 8% annually for the next few years, which is creating a growth opportunity for the Company in publicly run state
facilities that can benefit from the Company's highly efficient management. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's juvenile division provides residential, community-based, behavioral health and alternative education programs to juveniles, typically between the
ages of ten and 17. In addition to meaningful treatment options, the programs also develop continuing care plans that help bridge the juvenile back to the community. Under the names "Cornell Abraxas"
and "Cornell Interventions," the Company offers programs to meet the multiple needs of troubled juveniles. At December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company had 21 residential facilities, including the New
Morgan Academy which was closed in the fourth quarter of 2002, and 17 non-residential community-based programs serving an aggregate capacity of approximately 4,472 youths. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Juvenile
treatment, educational and detention services consist primarily of programs that are designed to lead to rehabilitation while providing public safety and holding juveniles
accountable for their decisions and behavior. The Company operates primarily within a restorative justice model. The basic philosophy is that merely serving time in an institution does not relieve
juvenile offenders of the obligation to repay their victims and that incarceration alone does not compensate for the societal impact of crimes. The use of a balanced approach gives equal emphasis to
accountability, competency development and community protection. </FONT></P>

juvenile corrections industry is estimated to expend $8&nbsp;billion in 2002 and consists of at least 108,000 secure residential beds. The juvenile treatment and educational
components of the juvenile corrections industry are estimated to be far larger. This market segment is fragmented, with several thousand providers across the country, most of which are small and
operate in specific geographic areas. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
juvenile corrections industry has expanded rapidly in recent years as the need for services for at-risk and adjudicated youth has risen. According to the American
Correctional Association's Directory of Adult and Juvenile Correctional Departments, Institutions, Agencies and Probation and Parole Authorities, spending for the provision of juvenile services has
increased at a compound annual growth rate of almost 20% from 1993 to 2001. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's pre-release division provides community-based services including job placement and treatment and education programs as an alternative to
incarceration as well as to aid in the successful transition from a correctional facility back into society. At December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company operated or had contracts to provide
pre-release correctional and treatment services within 16 residential facilities and six non-residential community based programs with an aggregate service capacity of 3,621.
The pre-release area is primarily comprised of individuals who have been granted parole or sentenced to probation. Probationers (individuals sentenced for an offense without incarceration)
and parolees (individuals released prior to the completion of their sentence) are typically placed in pre-release settings. These individuals typically spend three to six months in halfway
houses until they are prepared to re-enter society. </FONT></P>

to the adult secure institutional and the juvenile service segments, the area of pre-release correctional services has experienced substantial growth. According to
the BJS, the number of parolees increased from 531,407 at December&nbsp;31, 1990 to 731,147 as of December&nbsp;31, 2001, a compound annual growth rate of approximately 3.0%. During the same
period, the number of individuals on probation increased from approximately 2.7&nbsp;million to 3.9&nbsp;million, a compound annual growth rate of approximately 3.5%. The probation and parole
populations represent approximately 70% of the total number of adults under correctional supervision in the United States. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>proposal,
or RFP, by a contracting agency, submission of a response to the RFP by the Company, the award of the contract by a government agency and the commencement of construction or operation of the
facility. These agencies generally procure services from the private sector by issuing an RFP to which a number of companies may respond. In addition to costs, government agencies consider numerous
other factors including bidders' experience and qualifications when awarding contracts. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
part of the process of responding to RFPs, the Company's management meets with appropriate personnel from the requesting agency to best determine the agency's distinct needs. The
Company may also receive inquiries from or on behalf of government agencies considering privatization of certain facilities or that have already decided to contract with private providers. When the
Company receives such an inquiry, the Company determines whether there is a need for its services and whether the legal and political climate in which the government agency operates is conducive to
serious consideration of privatization. The Company then conducts an initial cost analysis to further determine project feasibility. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
the Company believes the project is consistent with its strategic business plan, the Company will submit a written response to the RFP. When responding to RFPs, the Company incurs
costs, typically ranging from $10,000 to $100,000 per proposal, to determine the prospective client's distinct needs and prepare a detailed response to the RFP. In addition, the Company may incur
substantial costs to acquire options to lease or purchase land for a proposed facility and engage outside consulting and legal expertise related to a particular RFP. The preparation of a response to
an RFP typically takes from five to fifteen weeks. The bidding and award process for an RFP typically takes from three to nine months. Generally, if the facility for which an award has been made must
be constructed, the Company will begin operation of the newly constructed facility between 12 and 24&nbsp;months after the contract award. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When
a contract requires construction of a new facility, the Company's success depends, in part, upon its ability to acquire real property on desirable terms and at satisfactory
locations. The Company anticipates that a large majority of new facilities will be constructed in rural areas. To the extent that these locations are in or near populous areas, management anticipates
legal action and other forms of opposition from residents in areas surrounding certain proposed sites. The Company may incur significant expenses in responding to such opposition and there can be no
assurance of success. In addition, the Company may choose not to bid in response to an RFP or may determine to withdraw a bid if legal action or other forms of opposition are anticipated. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Contracts  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's facility management contracts generally provide that the Company will be compensated at an occupant per diem rate, fees for treatment service,
guaranteed take-or-pay or cost-plus reimbursement. Factors that the Company considers in determining the per diem rate to charge include (1)&nbsp;the programs
specified by the contract and the related staffing levels, (2)&nbsp;wage levels customary in the respective geographic areas, (3)&nbsp;whether the proposed facility is to be leased or purchased
and (4)&nbsp;the anticipated average occupancy levels that the Company believes could reasonably be maintained. Compensation is invoiced in accordance with the applicable contract and is typically
paid to the Company on a monthly basis. Some of the Company's juvenile education contracts provide for annual payments. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company pursues new contracts that leverage its existing infrastructure and capabilities and meet the Company's stringent profitability criteria. The Company has increased its focus
on guaranteed take-or-pay contracts, which provide a fixed minimum revenue stream regardless of occupancy and thereby add increased stability and predictability to the
Company's revenue stream. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Independent accreditation by various oversight and regulatory organizations is designed to show that a facility meets nationally accepted professional standards
for quality of operation, facility design, management, and maintenance. Accrediting entities include the American Correctional Association, or ACA, for the adult secure and pre-release
sectors, and the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, Departments of Public Welfare, Departments of Protective and Regulatory Services, and Departments of Human Services and
Education for the juvenile sector. ACA standards are the national benchmark for the effective operation of correctional systems throughout the United States and address services, programs, and
operations essential to good correctional management including administrative and fiscal controls, staff training and development, physical plant, safety and emergency procedures, sanitation, food
service, and rules and discipline. ACA accreditation is important to the courts as an indicator of improved conditions for adult prisons under court order. It is the Company's policy that all of its
facilities' daily operations be performed in accordance with accreditation standards. Accreditation and the standards of service required thereby also contribute to the public's increased acceptance
of the Company and its provision of privatized corrections services. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Internal
quality control, conducted by the Company's senior facility staff and executive officers, takes the form of periodic operational, programming and fiscal audits, facility
inspections, regular review of logs, reports and files and strict maintenance of personnel standards, including an active training program. Each of the Company's facilities develops its own training
plan that is reviewed, evaluated and updated annually. All adult correctional officers undergo a minimum 40-hour orientation upon their hiring and receive academy-level training amounting
to 120&nbsp;hours and on-the-job training of up to 80&nbsp;hours. Each correctional officer also receives up to 40&nbsp;hours of continuing training and education
annually. All juvenile treatment employees undergo a minimum 80-hour orientation upon their hiring and also receive up to 40&nbsp;hours of continuing training and education annually. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Facilities  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company had 69 facilities including the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center, which is under development, and the New Morgan
Academy, which was closed in the fourth quarter of 2002. Reference is made to "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations&#151;Liquidity and Capital
Resources&#151;Contractual Uncertainties Related to Certain Facilities" for a discussion of the status of the Moshannon Valley
Correctional Center and the New Morgan Academy. In addition to providing management services, the Company has been involved in the development, design and/or construction of many of these facilities. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company controls, either through outright ownership or long-term leases, operating facilities representing a large majority of its revenues. Management believes that such
control increases the likelihood of contract renewal, allows the Company to expand existing facilities and capture higher margins, and enhances the Company's ability to win new contracts. In addition,
long-term control of its operating facilities allows the Company to better control operating margins and reduce cost escalation pressures. </FONT></P>

April&nbsp;1999, the Company was awarded a contract to design, build and operate the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center and immediately commenced construction and activation
activities. In June&nbsp;1999, the BOP issued a Stop-Work Order pending a re-evaluation of their environmental documentation supporting the decision to award the contract.
The environmental study was completed with a finding of no significant impact and the Stop-Work Order was lifted by the BOP on August&nbsp;9, 2001. In September&nbsp;1999, the Company
received correspondence from the Office of the Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania indicating its belief that the operation of a private prison in Pennsylvania is unlawful. The
Company and the BOP have had discussions with the Attorney General's staff regarding these and related issues. As a result of these issues, the Company has not re-commenced its
construction efforts. In March&nbsp;2003, the Company reached an agreement with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that resolved all outstanding administrative issues relative to the contract awarded
to the Company by the BOP to operate the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. If the Company is able to negotiate an amendment to the contract with the BOP, this agreement will allow the Company to
move forward with the construction and operation of the facility, subject to re-approval of the project by the lenders under the Company's amended 2000 Credit Facility. As of
December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company had incurred approximately $16.1&nbsp;million for construction and land development costs and capitalized interest for the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center.
According to the BOP contract, as amended, the Company must complete the construction of the facility by April&nbsp;15, 2003. The Company will not be able to complete construction within that time
frame. The Company is currently obtaining contract amendments monthly from the BOP. The Company anticipates obtaining another long-term contract amendment from the BOP expending the
construction deadline. In the event the Company is not able to negotiate a contract amendment with the BOP, then the BOP may have the right to assert that the Company has not completed construction of
the facility within the time frame provided in the BOP contract, as amended. Management expects that the contract will be amended to address cost and construction timing matters resulting from the
extended delay. In the event that the BOP decides not to continue with the construction of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center and terminates the contract, management believes that the Company
has the right to and will recover its invested costs. In the event any portion of these costs are determined not to be recoverable upon contract termination by the BOP, such costs will be expensed.
Management currently believes that the invested costs would be fully recovered in the event this contract is terminated. </FONT></DD></DL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Competition  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's industry is currently characterized by a few large national operators focused primarily in the adult secure institutional sector and by a large
number of smaller operators in the juvenile and pre-release sectors. Management believes its principal competitors are Corrections Corporation of America and Wackenhut Corrections
Corporation. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Employees  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company had approximately 3,478 full-time employees and 279 part-time employees. The Company employs
management, administrative and clerical, security, educational and counseling services, health services and general maintenance personnel. Approximately 502 employees at four of the Company's
facilities are represented by unions. The Company believes its relations with its employees are good. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Regulations  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The industry in which the Company operates is subject to federal, state and local regulations administered by a variety of regulatory authorities. Generally,
prospective providers of correctional, detention and pre-release services must comply with a variety of applicable state and local regulations, including education, healthcare and safety
regulations. The Company's contracts frequently include extensive reporting requirements and require supervision with on-site monitoring by representatives of contracting governmental
agencies. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
addition to regulations requiring certain contracting governmental agencies to enter into a competitive bidding procedure before awarding contracts, the laws of certain jurisdictions
may also require the Company to award subcontracts on a competitive basis or to subcontract with businesses owned by women or members of minority groups. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Business Concentration  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, 20.9%, 20.2% and 21.4%, respectively, of the Company's consolidated revenues were derived from
multiple contracts with the BOP. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company maintains a $10&nbsp;million per occurrence per facility general liability insurance policy for all its operations. The Company also maintains

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In March and April&nbsp;2002, the Company, Steven W. Logan, and John L. Hendrix, were named as defendants in four Federal putative class action lawsuits styled
as follows: (1)&nbsp;</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Graydon Williams, On Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated v. Cornell Companies, Inc, et al.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>,

(4)&nbsp;</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Anthony J. Scolaro, On Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated v. Cornell Companies,&nbsp;Inc., et al.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>,
No.&nbsp;H-02-1567, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. The aforementioned lawsuits are putative class action lawsuits
brought on behalf of all purchasers of the Company's common stock between March&nbsp;6, 2001 and March&nbsp;5, 2002. The lawsuits involve disclosures made concerning two prior transactions
executed by the Company: the August&nbsp;2001 sale leaseback transaction and the 2000 synthetic lease transaction. These four lawsuits have all been consolidated into the </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>Graydon Williams</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> action.
Recently, the Court granted Flyline Partners, LP's motion to be appointed as lead plaintiff and Flyline Partners, LP has filed
a consolidated complaint. The consolidated complaint alleges that the defendants violated Section&nbsp;10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"),
Rule&nbsp;10b-5 promulgated under Section&nbsp;10(b) of the Exchange Act, Section&nbsp;20(a) of the Exchange Act and Section&nbsp;11 of the Securities Act of 1933. The consolidated
compliant seeks, among other things, restitution damages, compensatory damages, rescission or a rescissory measure of damages, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees and expert fees. The Company believes
that it has good defenses to each of the plaintiffs' claims and intends to vigorously defend against each of the claims. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
March&nbsp;2002, the Company, its directors, and its former independent auditor Arthur Andersen LLP, were sued in a derivative action styled as </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>William
Williams, Derivatively and on Behalf of Nominal Defendant Cornell Companies,&nbsp;Inc. v. Anthony R. Chase, et al.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>, No.&nbsp;2002-15614, in the 127th Judicial
District Court of Harris County, Texas. The lawsuit alleges breaches of fiduciary duty by all of the individual defendants and asserts breach of contract and professional negligence claims only
against Arthur Andersen LLP. The Company believes that it has good defenses to each of the plaintiff's claims and intends to vigorously defend against each of the claims. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
May and June&nbsp;2002, the Company and its directors were sued in three other derivative lawsuits styled as follows: (1)&nbsp;</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Juan Guitierrez,

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Logan, et. al.,</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> No.&nbsp;2002-28924, in the 164th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas. These lawsuits all allege breaches of fiduciary duty and waste

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While
the plaintiffs in these cases have not quantified their claim of damages and the outcome of the matters discussed above cannot be predicted with certainty, based on information

Company has never declared or paid cash dividends on its capital stock. The Company currently intends to retain excess cash flow, if any, for use in the operation and expansion of
its business and does not anticipate paying cash dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends is within the discretion of the Board of Directors and is dependent
upon, among other factors, the Company's results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, restrictions, if any, imposed by financing commitments and legal requirements. The Company's
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July&nbsp;21, 2000 ("2000 Credit Facility"), currently prohibits the payment of dividends. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Revenues
for the Company's services are generally recognized on a per diem rate based upon the number of occupant days or hours served for the period, on a guaranteed
take-or-pay basis or on a cost-plus reimbursement basis. Revenues may fluctuate from year to year due to changes in government funding policies, the number of
people referred to the Company's facilities by governmental agencies or the opening of additional facilities. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Factors
that the Company considers in determining the per diem rate to charge include (1)&nbsp;the programs specified by the contract and the related staffing levels, (2)&nbsp;wage
levels customary in the respective geographic areas, (3)&nbsp;whether the proposed facility is to be leased or purchased and (4)&nbsp;the anticipated average occupancy levels that the Company
believes could reasonably be maintained. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company has historically experienced higher operating margins in its adult secure institutional and pre-release divisions as compared to the juvenile division.
Additionally, the Company's operating margins within a division can vary from facility to facility based on whether a facility is owned or leased, the level of competition for the contract award, the
proposed length of the contract, the occupancy levels for a facility, the level of capital commitment required with respect to a facility, the anticipated changes in operating costs over the term of
the contract, and the Company's ability to increase a facility's contract revenue. A decline in occupancy of certain juvenile division facilities may
have a more significant impact on operating results than the adult secure division due to higher per diem revenues of certain juvenile facilities. The Company has experienced and expects to experience
interim period operating margin fluctuations due to the number of calendar days in the period, higher payroll taxes in the first half of the year, and salary and wage increases that are incurred prior
to certain contract revenue increases. The Company experienced higher employee insurance costs in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 as compared to the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001 due to
rising medical costs. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company is responsible for all facility operating costs, except for certain debt service and lease payments with respect to facilities for which the Company has only a management
contract (13 facilities in operation at December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001 and nine facilities in 2000). </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A
majority of the Company's facility operating costs consists of fixed costs. These fixed costs include lease and rental expense, insurance, utilities and depreciation. As a result, when
the Company commences operation of new or expanded facilities, fixed operating cost increase. The amount of the Company's variable operating costs, including food, medical services, supplies and
clothing, depend on occupancy levels at the facilities operated by the Company. The Company's largest single operating cost, facility payroll expense and related employment taxes and costs, has both a
fixed and a variable component. The Company can adjust a facility's staffing levels and the related payroll expense to a certain extent based on occupancy at a facility, however a minimum fixed number
of employees is required to operate and maintain any facility regardless of occupancy levels. Personnel costs are subject to increases in tightening labor markets based on local economic and other
conditions. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Following
a contract award, the Company incurs pre-opening and start-up expenses including payroll, benefits, training and other operating costs prior to opening
a new or expanded facility and during the period of operation while occupancy is ramping up. These costs vary by contract. Since pre-opening and start-up costs are factored
into the revenue per diem rate that is charged to the contracting agency, the Company typically expects to recover these upfront costs over the life of the contract. Because occupancy rates during a
facility's start-up phase typically result in capacity under-utilization for at least 90 to 180&nbsp;days, the Company may incur additional post-opening start-up
costs. The Company does not anticipate post-opening start-up costs at facilities operated under any future contracts with the BOP because these contracts are currently and
expected to continue to be take-or-pay contracts, meaning that the BOP will pay the Company at least 95.0% of the contractual monthly revenue once the facility opens regardless
of actual occupancy. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Newly
opened facilities are staffed according to contract requirements when the Company begins receiving offenders or clients. Offenders or clients are typically assigned to a newly
opened facility on a phased-in basis over a one- to six-month period, although certain programs require a longer time period to reach break-even
occupancy levels. The
Company incurs start-up operating losses at new facilities until break-even occupancy levels are reached. Although the Company typically recovers these upfront costs over the
life of the contract, quarterly results can be substantially affected by the timing of the commencement of operations as well as development and construction of new facilities. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Working
capital requirements generally increase immediately prior to the Company's commencing management of a new or expanded facility as the Company incurs start-up costs
and purchases necessary equipment and supplies before facility management revenue is realized. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;General

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Significant 2002 Events  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On February&nbsp;6, 2002, the Company announced that a Special Committee of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors had been formed to review the
accounting treatment for the Company's August&nbsp;2001 sale and leaseback transaction (the "2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction"). The Company entered into a retainer agreement with an investment
bank dated September&nbsp;2001, which, as amended, provided that (1)&nbsp;the Company pay the investment bank a non-refundable retainer fee of $3.65&nbsp;million to provide financial
advisory services concerning separate future financing vehicles and the strategic development of the Company's business and (2)&nbsp;the retainer would be applied on a mutually agreed upon basis
toward future contingent fees associated with investment banking services that would be provided to the Company. The Special Committee's review focused on whether the retainer agreement and the
payment of the related fee affected the previously reported accounting treatment for the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Special Committee, which was composed solely of independent directors, retained independent counsel, who retained an accounting advisor, to assist the Special Committee in its
review. The Special Committee was formed and conducted its review in response to correspondence from the Company's independent auditors to its Audit Committee regarding the 2001 Sale and Leaseback
Transaction. In the course of its review and pursuant to a third letter from the Company's independent auditors addressed to the Company's Chairman dated February&nbsp;21, 2002, the Special
Committee also reviewed the accounting treatment for the Company's 2000 synthetic lease transaction. The review of the synthetic lease focused on whether a fee was paid pursuant to an engagement
letter between the Company and two financial institutions participating in the transaction and the impact of the fee on the previously reported accounting treatment. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
the conclusion of its review, the Special Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, among other things, that: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While
the Company believes there are reasonable arguments supporting the previously reported accounting treatment of the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction and the 2000 synthetic lease

periods. As a result, the Company restated its financial statements for 2000 and the first three quarters of 2001 to reflect the consolidation of the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction and the
2000 synthetic lease transaction. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These
restatements are reflected in the selected unaudited quarterly financial data set forth in Note&nbsp;15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The restatements of the
financial data for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2000 are reflected in the audited financial statements included herewith. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company recognized a pre-tax charge of approximately $1.9&nbsp;million for legal, accounting and other professional fees for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 as
a result of the Company's Special Committee review of certain Company transactions, the restatement of the Company's 2000 and 2001 financial statements and related matters. See Note&nbsp;2 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
the Company obtained certain waivers and amendments to its credit agreements in connection with the restatement of its prior year's financial statements. The Company
recognized a pre-tax charge to interest expense of approximately $825,000 for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 for lenders' fees and related professional fees incurred to obtain
these waivers and amendments. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
April&nbsp;16, 2002, the Board of Directors amended the Company's Bylaws. Among other things, the amendments established an Executive Chairman position, clarified specific levels of
authority for members of senior management and identified appropriate limits on such authority. Pursuant to board
action, Harry J. Phillips, Jr., the Company's Chairman, was appointed the Executive Chairman of the Company, Steven W. Logan as President, Thomas R. Jenkins as Chief Operating Officer and John L.
Hendrix as Chief Financial Officer. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
September&nbsp;2002, Steven W. Logan resigned his position as President of the Company. On September&nbsp;18, 2002, the Board of Directors appointed Thomas R. Jenkins as President
and Chief Operating Officer. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company recognized a pre-tax charge of approximately $1.5&nbsp;million for costs associated with the termination of the management contract with Steven W. Logan upon
his resignation as President in September&nbsp;2002. This charge is reflected in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying audited financial statements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
the second quarter of 2002, the Company was informed that it had not been awarded the BOP Southeast contract. As a result, the Company recognized a pre-tax charge of
approximately $1.0&nbsp;million for the write-off of deferred project financing costs associated with the project. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
September&nbsp;27, 2002, the Company announced plans to close the New Morgan Academy. The Company is currently reviewing and evaluating several options for the reutilization of the
facility as an adult and/or family detention center or as an alternative juvenile educational facility. Some renovations to the facility may be required in order to operate any type of alternative
program at the facility. The Company is also considering the possibility of selling the facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
April&nbsp;1999, the Company was awarded a contract to design, build and operate a 1,095 bed prison for the BOP in Moshannon Valley, Pennsylvania (the "Moshannon Valley Correctional
Center"). Construction and activation activities commenced immediately. In June&nbsp;1999, the BOP issued a Stop-Work Order pending a re-evaluation of their environmental
documentation supporting the decision to award the contract. The environmental study was completed with a finding of no significant impact and the Stop-Work Order was lifted by the BOP on
August&nbsp;9, 2001. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
September&nbsp;1999, the Company received correspondence from the Office of the Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania indicating its belief that the operation of a
private prison in Pennsylvania is unlawful. The Company and the BOP have had discussions with the Attorney General's staff regarding these and related issues. As a result of these issues, the Company

$16.1&nbsp;million for construction and land development costs and capitalized interest related to the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. According to the BOP contract, as amended,
the Company must complete construction of the facility by April&nbsp;15, 2003. The Company will not be able to complete construction within that time frame. The Company is currently obtaining
contract amendments monthly from the BOP. The Company anticipates obtaining another long-term contract amendment from the BOP extending the construction deadline. In the event the Company
is not able to negotiate a contract amendment with the BOP, then the BOP may have the right to assert that the Company has not completed construction of the facility within the time frame provided in
the BOP contract, as amended. Management expects that the contract will be amended to address cost and construction timing matters resulting from the extended delay. In the event that the BOP decides
not to continue with the construction of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center and terminates the contract, management believes that the Company has the right to and will recover its invested
costs. In the event any portion of these costs are determined not to be recoverable upon contract termination by the BOP, such costs will be expensed. Management currently believes that the invested
costs would be fully recoverable in the event of this contract being terminated. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
December&nbsp;31, 2002, accounts receivable include costs totaling approximately $1.4&nbsp;million for direct costs incurred by the Company since the issuance of the
Stop-Work Order in June&nbsp;1999 for incremental payroll and other operating costs related to the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. These costs were incurred at the direction of the
BOP with the understanding that such costs would be reimbursed by the BOP. Although no formal written agreement exists, management believes that these costs will be reimbursed by the BOP in the near
term. In the event any portion of these costs is determined not to be reimbursable, such costs will be expensed. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In January&nbsp;2003, the Company executed a lease for the Bernalillo County Jail in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The facility, which will be vacated by the County

The facility would add approximately 1,000 beds to the Company's current service capacity. </FONT></P>

Company by the BOP to operate the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. If the Company is able to negotiate an amendment to the contract with the BOP, this agreement will allow the Company to move

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In June&nbsp;2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No.&nbsp;143, "Accounting for
Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No.&nbsp;143") which requires entities to recognize the fair value of a liability for legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible
long-lived assets in the period incurred, if a reasonable estimate of the fair value can be made. The Company adopted the provisions related to SFAS No.&nbsp;143 in January&nbsp;2003.
Management believes there will be no material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or stockholders' equity as a result of the adoption of this new pronouncement. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
April&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;145, "Rescission of SFAS Nos. 4, 44, 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;13, and Technical Corrections", effective for fiscal
years beginning after May&nbsp;15, 2002 ("SFAS No.&nbsp;145"). SFAS No.&nbsp;145 rescinds SFAS Nos. 4, 44, 64 and amends SFAS No.&nbsp;13, "Accounting for Leases," to eliminate an
inconsistency between the required accounting for sale and leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale and
leaseback transactions. Additionally, SFAS No.&nbsp;145 requires gains and losses on the extinguishment of debt to be classified as income or loss from continuing operations rather than as
extraordinary items as previously required under SFAS No.&nbsp;4. The Company adopted SFAS No.&nbsp;145 as required on January&nbsp;1, 2003. The Company recorded an extraordinary charge of
approximately $0.5&nbsp;million, net of income tax of $0.3&nbsp;million, in the third quarter of 2001 for the early retirement of debt. Additionally, in the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company
recognized an extraordinary charge of approximately $2.9&nbsp;million, net of income taxes of $2.0&nbsp;million, for the write-off of the related unamortized deferred debt issuance
costs, debt discount and assessed contractual prepayment fees as a result of the early retirement of the Company's subordinated notes. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;145, the
above charges were reclassified to expenses from continuing operations before income taxes in January&nbsp;2003. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
July&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS No.&nbsp;146"), which addresses the financial
accounting and reporting associated with exit or disposal activities initiated after December&nbsp;31, 2002. Under SFAS No.&nbsp;146, costs associated with an exit or disposal activity should be
recognized and measured at the fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The Company is required to adopt SFAS
No.&nbsp;146 for all exit and disposal activities initiated after December&nbsp;31, 2002. Management believes there will be no material effect on the Company's financial position, results of
operations or stockholders' equity as result of the adoption of this new pronouncement. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
December&nbsp;31, 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation&#151;Transition and Disclosure" ("SFAS No.&nbsp;148") which amends
SFAS No.&nbsp;123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." SFAS No.&nbsp;148 provides two additional alternative transition methods for recognizing an entity's voluntary decision to change its
method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation to the fair-value method. In addition, SFAS No.&nbsp;148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.&nbsp;123 so that
entities will have to (1)&nbsp;make more-prominent disclosures regarding the pro forma effects of using the fair-value method of accounting for stock-based compensation,
(2)&nbsp;present those disclosures in a more accessible format in the footnotes to the annual financial statements and (3)&nbsp;include those disclosures in interim financial statements. SFAS
No.&nbsp;148's transition guidance and provisions for annual disclosures are effective for fiscal years ending after December&nbsp;15, 2002 and the related disclosures are contained in
Note&nbsp;10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The provisions for interim period disclosures are effective for financial reports that contain financial statements for interim periods
beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2002. The Company adopted the annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;148 in this report on Form&nbsp;10-K. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
November&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No.&nbsp;45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others." FIN 45 requires a guarantor to include disclosure of certain obligations, and if applicable, at the inception of the guarantee, recognize a liability for the fair value of
other certain obligations undertaken in issuing a guarantee. The provisions related to the disclosure requirements are effective for financial statement periods ending after December&nbsp;15, 2002.
The provisions related to recognition and measurement of guarantees are effective for financial statement periods beginning after December&nbsp;31, 2002 on a prospective basis. The Company adopted
the disclosure provisions of FIN 45 in this report on Form&nbsp;10-K. The Company adopted the provisions related to the recognition and measurement of guarantees as of January&nbsp;1,
2003. Management believes such provisions will not have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. See Note&nbsp;8 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
January&nbsp;2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No.&nbsp;46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), which addresses the consolidation of variable interest
entities as defined in the Interpretation. FIN 46 requires an assessment of equity investments to determine if they are variable interest entities. FIN 46 is effective immediately for all variable
interest entities created after January&nbsp;31, 2003. For variable interest entities created before February&nbsp;1, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 must be applied no later than the beginning of
the first interim period or annual reporting period beginning after June&nbsp;15, 2003. In addition, if it is reasonably possible that an enterprise will consolidate or disclose information about a
variable interest entity, the enterprise must discuss the following information in all financial statements issued after January&nbsp;31, 2003: (1)&nbsp;the nature, purpose, size or activities of
the variable interest entity and (2)&nbsp;the enterprise's maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the variable interest entity. The Company's adoption of FIN 46 does not change
the Company's accounting for the 2000 synthetic lease transaction and the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction which are consolidated for reporting purposes. It is reasonably possible that the Company
may enter into future arrangements for the development of new facilities or to operate facilities which may become subject to the provisions of FIN 46 and, in some cases, may be required to
consolidate the related activities, facilities and financings. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires that the Company's management make estimates
and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates its estimates on an
on-going basis, based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions or conditions. </FONT></P>

special purpose entities represents equity that other investors have contributed to the special purpose entities. Minority interest is adjusted for income and losses allocable to the
owners of the special purpose entities. As the cumulative losses of the special purpose entity exceed the equity which is recorded as minority interest by the Company, the excess losses are recorded
in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company's lease financing arrangement under its 2000 Credit Facility is a "synthetic lease". A synthetic lease is a form of lease financing that qualifies for operating lease
accounting treatment and, when all criteria pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") are met, are accounted for, "off-balance sheet". Under such a
structure, the owner/lessor of the properties ("Synthetic Lease Investor") may be considered a virtual special purpose entity when it obtains debt and equity capital to finance the acquisition or
construction of project(s) and leases the projects to a company. This financial structure was used to finance the construction of the New Morgan Academy completed in the first quarter of 2001, the
acquisition of the Taylor Street
Center building in early 1999, and the construction-to-date costs of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. The synthetic lease used by the Company to finance the above
projects was executed in December&nbsp;1998 and was amended in July&nbsp;2000 whereby the available financing was increased from $40.0&nbsp;million to $100.0&nbsp;million and the lease term
extended to July&nbsp;2005. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
current accounting rules, the Synthetic Lease Investor in a virtual SPE must maintain at least a 3.0% equity ownership interest in the property throughout the life of the lease.
The Company's synthetic lease documents, as amended in July&nbsp;2000, provide for the equity investor to fund 3.5% of project costs. There are provisions in the lease and related credit documents
for the lenders and Synthetic Lease Investor to fund and be paid interest, yield and fees. Under current GAAP rules, the payment of any yield and fees to the investors is required to be treated as a
return of capital rather than a return on capital. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Synthetic Lease Investor for the above mentioned projects received payments to act as co-arranger in the structure of the initial $40.0&nbsp;million synthetic lease
facility in 1998 and in July&nbsp;2000 when the synthetic lease facility was increased to $100.0&nbsp;million. Although the Company does not believe the lessor of the Synthetic Lease is a special
purpose entity, the lessor is considered a virtual special purpose entity under certain accounting interpretations. Therefore, the payments discussed above could be interpreted to reduce the Synthetic
Lease Investor's equity ownership in the above leased projects below the required 3.0% level as of the second quarter of 2000. Pursuant to this interpretation, the Company's synthetic leases no longer
qualified for off-balance sheet treatment as of the beginning of the second quarter of 2000. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and the related results of operations of the synthetic
lease owned by the Synthetic Lease Investor have been consolidated in the Company's financial statements as of that time. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
a result of consolidating the synthetic lease assets and liabilities, the Company's accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements reflect, among other things, the depreciation
expense on the associated properties and interest expense related to the Synthetic Lease Investor's debt instead of rent expense. For income tax purposes, the Company recognizes rent expense pursuant
to the terms of its lease with the Synthetic Lease Investor and does not consolidate the assets, liabilities or the results of operations of the Synthetic Lease Investor. </FONT></P>

August&nbsp;14, 2001, the Company completed an arms' length sale and leaseback transaction involving 11 of its real estate facilities (the "2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction").
The Company sold the facilities to an unaffiliated company, Municipal Corrections Finance, L.P. ("MCF"), and is leasing them back for an initial period of 20&nbsp;years, with approximately
25&nbsp;years of additional renewal period options. The Company received $173.0&nbsp;million of proceeds from the sale of these facilities. The proceeds were used to repay $120.0&nbsp;million of

is an unaffiliated special purpose entity ("SPE"). Under current accounting rules, an SPE's equity investor must maintain at least a 3.0% equity ownership interest in the property
throughout the life of the lease. In September&nbsp;2001, the Company entered into a retainer agreement with an affiliate of the equity investor in MCF ("MCF Equity Investor"), and in
November&nbsp;2001, paid the MCF Equity Investor a retainer fee of $3.65&nbsp;million for financial advisory services related to potential future financing projects and the strategic development
of the Company's business. Under certain accounting interpretations, this retainer has been deemed to reduce the equity investment in MCF to below the required 3.0% level. As a result, the Company has
consolidated the assets, liabilities, and the results of operations of MCF in the Company's accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements as of August&nbsp;14, 2001. As a result of consolidating
the assets and liabilities of MCF, the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements reflect, among other things, the depreciation expense on the associated properties and interest expense on the bond
debt of MCF used to finance MCF's acquisition of the 11 facilities in the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction, instead of rent expense. For income tax purposes, the Company recognizes rent expense
pursuant to the terms of its lease with MCF and does not consolidate the assets, liabilities or the results of operations of MCF. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
cumulative losses of MCF exceeded the recorded minority interest of MCF during the first quarter of 2002. The cumulative losses of the Synthetic Lease Investor exceeded the recorded
minority interest of the Synthetic Lease Investor during the third quarter of 2001. Since the cumulative losses of MCF and the Synthetic Lease Investor exceed the equity that was recorded as minority
interest by the Company, the excess losses can no longer be allocated to the minority interest in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations in 2002. In the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2002, the Company recorded minority interest expense of approximately $0.6&nbsp;million as a result of a distribution made by MCF to its equity investors. </FONT></P>

December&nbsp;31, 2001. Revenues decreased approximately $5.1&nbsp;million as a result of the Company's termination of the Santa Fe County Adult Detention Center contract in September&nbsp;2001
due to the under performance and operating losses experienced at the facility. Additionally, revenues decreased approximately $1.3&nbsp;million due to reduced occupancy at the Baker Community
Correctional Facility and the Leo Chesney Community Correctional Facility during the second and third quarters of 2002 as the Company's contracts with the California Department of Corrections ("CDC")
for the operation of these facilities were set to expire June&nbsp;30, 2002 and were not expected to be renewed by the CDC due to the lack of governmental budget appropriations. The final California
state budget was approved in late September&nbsp;2002 and included the appropriations for both of these facilities. As of December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company had executed contracts for both
facilities and occupancy was at contracted levels. The decrease in revenue due to the facilities mentioned above was offset, in part, by per diem rate increases realized in June&nbsp;2001 and
March&nbsp;2002 at the Big Spring Complex and improved occupancy at certain other adult secure institution facilities. There were no revenues attributable to start-up operations for the
years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001. Average occupancy was 97.6% for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 compared to 97.0% for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Additionally,
revenues increased at certain residential facilities and non-residential programs due to improved occupancy and increased service hours. Such facilities and programs included
the Cornell Abraxas Center for Adolescent Females ("ACAF"), the Erie Residential Behavioral Health Program and the Griffin Juvenile Facility. Revenues decreased by approximately $5.1&nbsp;million
due to the closure of the New Morgan Academy early in the fourth quarter of 2002. On September&nbsp;27, 2002, the Company announced that it would be closing this facility. The Company is currently
evaluating several alternatives for the reutilization of the facility for a different type of program as well as the possibility of selling the facility. Revenues attributable to the New Morgan
Academy were approximately $13.3&nbsp;million and $18.3&nbsp;million for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. There were no revenues attributable to
start-up operations for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002. Revenues attributable to start-up operations for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001 were approximately
$2.8&nbsp;million and were attributable to the start-up operations of the New Morgan Academy. This start-up revenue is included in the revenue of approximately
$18.3&nbsp;million for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001 as discussed above. Average occupancy, excluding start-up operations in 2001, was 89.8% for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2002 compared to 91.2% for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pre-release
division revenues increased 2.9% to $50.6&nbsp;million for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 from $49.2&nbsp;million for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2001 due primarily to increased average occupancy at various facilities offset, in part, by a decrease in revenues as a result the Company's termination of the Durham Treatment
Center contract effective June&nbsp;30, 2001. Revenues for the Durham Treatment Center were approximately $700,000 for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001. There were no revenues attributable to
start-up operations for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001. Average occupancy was 110.2% for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 compared to 98.6% for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2001. The Company experienced occupancy in excess of 100.0% due to occupancy at certain pre-release facilities exceeding contracted capacity. The Company currently
cannot predict whether this level of occupancy will continue in future periods. </FONT></P>

December&nbsp;31, 2001 due primarily to the Company's termination of the Santa Fe County Adult Detention Center contract effective September&nbsp;30, 2001. Additionally, operating expenses
decreased at the Baker Community Correctional Facility and the Leo Chesney Community Correctional Facility due to reduced occupancy during 2002 as previously
discussed. The decrease due to the above facilities was offset, in part, by an increase in operating expenses at the Big Spring Complex due to a facility expansion completed in the first quarter of
2001. As a percentage of revenues, adult secure institutional division operating expenses were 69.7% for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 compared to 74.8% for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2001. The 2002 operating margin was impacted favorably due to the termination of the lower margin Santa Fe County Detention Center contract, the expansion of the Big Spring
Complex, per diem increases at various facilities, unusually high utility costs during the first quarter of 2001 as a result of increased natural gas prices and an increase in inmate medical expenses
at certain facilities. </FONT></P>

as compared to the prior year due to reduced occupancy. As previously discussed, the Company closed the New Morgan Academy early in the fourth quarter of 2002. As a percentage of revenues,
excluding start-up operations in 2001, juvenile division operating expenses were 84.0% for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 compared to 82.7% for the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2001. The decline in the 2002 operating margin was primarily a result of the decline in occupancy and the closing of the New Morgan Academy. This decline was offset, in part, by improved margins at
the Alexander Youth Center in 2002 as occupancy reached contract capacity. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pre-release
division operating expenses increased 0.5% to $37.6&nbsp;million for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 from $37.4&nbsp;million for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2001 due primarily to fluctuations in average occupancy at various facilities offset, in part, by a decrease in operating expenses as a result of the termination of the Durham
Treatment Center contract effective June&nbsp;30, 2001. As a percentage of revenue, pre-release division operating expenses were 74.3% for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002
compared to 76.1% for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001. The 2002 operating margin was impacted favorably due to the expiration of the San Diego Center contract early in 2001 and the Durham
Treatment Center contract in June&nbsp;2001 and increased occupancy at various facilities. The improvement in the 2002 operating margin was offset, in part, by an increase of approximately 13.0% in
employee insurance costs in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 as compared to the prior year. </FONT></P>

December&nbsp;31, 2002 from prior year due to the Company's adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which eliminated the amortization of goodwill effective
January&nbsp;1, 2002. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment increased approximately $1.2&nbsp;million in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 from prior year due primarily to

of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001, the Company capitalized interest of approximately $1.3&nbsp;million related primarily to the
construction of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. The decrease in capitalized interest in 2002 was due to decreased interest rates on the Company's Synthetic Lease Investor Notes discussed in
more detail under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations&#151;Liquidity and Capital Resources&#151;2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction".
For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, interest expense includes approximately $825,000 for lenders' fees and related professional fees incurred to obtain certain waivers and amendments to the
Company's credit agreement obtained in conjunction with the restatement of its financial statements. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001, interest expense included a charge of approximately
$818,000 for the write-off of a portion of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs related to the Company's amended 2000 Credit Facility (defined under "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations&#151;Liquidity and Capital Resources&#151;Long-Term Credit Facilities") as a result of the repayment of all
outstanding borrowings and the associated reduction in the credit commitment. The Company also recognized less interest expense in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 due to repayment of the
Company's debt under its revolving line of credit and its subordinated notes from the proceeds from a Common Stock offering in 2001 and the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction. Additionally, the
Company recognized less interest expense in 2002 due to decreased interest rates on the Company's Synthetic Lease Investor Notes. </FONT></P>

Results of Operations&#151;Liquidity and Capital Resources&#151;Long-Term Credit Facilities") exceeded the recorded minority interest of the Synthetic Lease Investor during
the third quarter of 2001. Since the cumulative losses of MCF and the Synthetic Lease Investor exceed the equity that was recorded as minority interest by the Company, the excess losses can no longer
be allocated to the minority interest in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income in 2002. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company recorded a
charge of approximately $0.6&nbsp;million as a result of a distribution made by MCF to its equity investors. </FONT></P>

and Leaseback Transaction. Proceeds from the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction were used by the Company, in part, to repay $70.0&nbsp;million outstanding under the Company's revolving line of
credit and $50.0&nbsp;million of outstanding 7.74% Senior Secured Notes. Additionally, in December&nbsp;2001, the Company repaid $39.4&nbsp;million of 12.875% notes under its Note and Equity
Purchase Agreement ("Subordinated Notes") with proceeds from an offering and sale of its common stock. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001, interest expense increased due to (1)&nbsp;the
increased borrowings of MCF, (2)&nbsp;increased borrowings under the Company's synthetic lease to finance the construction of the New Morgan Academy which began operations in the fourth quarter of
2000, and (3)&nbsp;a non-recurring charge of $818,000 to write-off a portion of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs related to the Company's 2000 Credit Facility as a
result of the repayment of all outstanding borrowings and an associated reduction in the credit commitment. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2001 the Company capitalized interest of
$1.3&nbsp;million related to the construction of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. Capitalized interest for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2000 was $2.0&nbsp;million and related to the

an estimated effective rate of 42.0% and 41.0%, respectively. The increase in the effective rate was due to increased taxable income in certain states having higher rates. </FONT></P>

is an unaffiliated SPE. Under applicable accounting rules, the Synthetic Lease Investor must maintain at least a 3.0% equity ownership interest in the property throughout the life of
the lease. In September&nbsp;2001, the Company entered into a retainer agreement with MCF Equity Investor, and in November&nbsp;2001, paid a retainer fee of $3.65&nbsp;million for financial
advisory services related to potential future financing projects and the strategic development of the Company's business. The retainer will be applied on a mutually agreed upon basis toward future
contingent fees associated with investment banking services that are expected to be provided to the Company. Under certain accounting interpretations, this retainer has been deemed to reduce the
equity investment in MCF to below the required 3.0% level. As a result, the Company has consolidated the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of MCF in the Company's accompanying
consolidated financial statements beginning August&nbsp;14, 2001. As a result of consolidating the assets and liabilities of MCF, the Company's consolidated financial statements reflect, among other
things, the depreciation expense on the associated properties and interest expense on the bond debt of MCF used to finance MCF's acquisition of the 11 facilities in the 2001 Sale and Leaseback

August&nbsp;14, 2001, MCF issued $197.4&nbsp;million of 8.47% bonds due August&nbsp;2016. The Company used $120.0&nbsp;million of the $173.0&nbsp;million of proceeds
received by the Company from MCF from the sale of the 11 facilities to repay the Company's $120.0&nbsp;million long-term senior debt and invested the remaining proceeds of approximately

The Company also repaid the $50.0&nbsp;million of outstanding 7.74% Senior Secured Notes with a portion of the proceeds from the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Long-Term Credit Facilities.</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's amended 2000 Credit Facility provides for borrowings of up to
$45.0&nbsp;million under a revolving line of credit. The commitment amount is reduced by $1.6&nbsp;million quarterly beginning July&nbsp;2002 and by outstanding letters of credit. Accordingly,
the available commitment amount under the amended 2000 Credit Facility was $36.7&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2002. The Company had outstanding letters of credit of approximately
$5.1&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2002. The amended 2000 Credit Facility matures in July&nbsp;2005 and bears interest, at the election of the Company, at either the prime rate plus a margin
of 2.0%, or a rate which is 3.0% above the applicable LIBOR rate. The amended 2000 Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets, including the stock of all of the Company's
subsidiaries; does not permit the payment of cash dividends; and requires the Company to comply with certain leverage, net worth and debt service coverage covenants. The Company has obtained a waiver
from the lenders under the amended 2000 Credit Facility regarding the pending contractual default for the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center's construction delay. The waiver is effective through
October&nbsp;30, 2004. Included in the Company's cash and cash equivalents at December&nbsp;31, 2002 is approximately $39.4&nbsp;million that is invested in a separate account that is available
to the Company for investment purposes or working capital with the approval of the lenders under the amended 2000 Credit Facility. This separate account is maintained, in part, to assure future credit
availability. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
the amended 2000 Credit Facility provides the Company with the ability to enter into lease financing arrangements for the acquisition or development of operating
facilities. This lease financing arrangement provides for funding to the lessor under the leases of up to $100.0&nbsp;million, of which approximately $51.0&nbsp;million had been utilized as of
December&nbsp;31, 2002. The Company expects to utilize the remaining capacity under this lease financing arrangement to complete construction of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. The Company
pays commitment fees at a rate of 0.5% annually for the unused portion of the lease financing capacity. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company's lease financing arrangement under the amended 2000 Credit Facility is a "synthetic lease". A synthetic lease is a form of lease financing that qualifies for operating lease
accounting treatment and, when all criteria pursuant to GAAP are met, is accounted for "off-balance sheet". Under such a structure, the Synthetic Lease Investor may be considered a virtual
SPE when it obtains debt and equity capital to finance the project(s) and leases the projects to a company. This financial structure was used to finance the construction of the New Morgan Academy
completed in the first quarter of 2001, the acquisition of the Taylor Street Center building in early 1999, and the construction-to-date of the incomplete Moshannon Valley
Correctional Center. The synthetic lease used to finance the above projects was originally entered into in December&nbsp;1998 and was amended in July&nbsp;2000 whereby the available financing was
increased from $40.0&nbsp;million to $100.0&nbsp;million and the lease term extended to July&nbsp;2005. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under

costs. There are provisions in the lease and related credit documents for the lenders and Synthetic Lease Investor to fund and be paid interest, yield and fees. Under current GAAP rules, the
payment of any yield and fees to the investors is required to be treated as a return of capital rather than a return on capital. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Synthetic Lease Investor for the above projects received payments to assist as co-arranger in the structure of the initial $40.0&nbsp;million synthetic lease facility
in 1998 and in July&nbsp;2000 when the synthetic lease facility was increased to $100.0&nbsp;million. Although the Company does not believe the lessor is a special purpose entity, the lessor could
be considered as a virtual special purpose entity under certain accounting interpretations. Therefore, these payments could be interpreted to reduce the Synthetic Lease Investor's equity ownership in
the leased projects below the required 3.0% level as of the second quarter of 2000. Pursuant to this interpretation, these synthetic leases no longer qualify for off-balance sheet
treatment beginning in the second quarter of 2000. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and results of operations of the synthetic lease owned by the Synthetic Lease Investor are consolidated in
the Company's financial statements beginning in the second quarter of 2000. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
a result of consolidating the synthetic lease assets and liabilities, the Company's accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the depreciation expense on the associated
properties and interest expense related to the Synthetic Lease Investor's debt, instead of rent expense. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company's adoption of FIN 46 in the fourth quarter of 2002 does not change the Company's accounting for the 2000 synthetic lease transaction and the 2001 Sale and Leaseback
Transaction, which are consolidated for reporting purposes. It is reasonably possible that the Company may enter into future arrangements for the development of new facilities or to operate facilities
that may become subject to the provisions of FIN 46 and, in some cases, may be required to consolidate the related activities, facilities and financings. </FONT></P>

phases during the fourth quarter of 2000 and the first quarter of 2001. During 2002, the New Morgan Academy experienced a reduction in occupancy as a result of budget appropriation reductions of a
significant customer. On September&nbsp;27, 2002, the Company announced
plans to close the New Morgan Academy. The Company consented to relinquish its license issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare in lieu of the department implementing its decision to
revoke the facility's provisional license due to operating incidents at the facility. The Company closed the facility in the fourth quarter of 2002. The Company is maintaining a small staff to secure
and maintain the facility while the Company considers its options for the use or sale of the facility. The Company expects to incur operating expenses of approximately $150,000 per month for payroll,
property taxes and other operating costs from the time the facility was closed until the facility is utilized for an alternative program or until the facility is sold. Additionally, the Company is
incurring interest expense of approximately $140,000 per month related to the borrowings for the facility and depreciation expense of approximately $46,000 per month for the building. </FONT></P>

April&nbsp;1999, the Company was awarded a contract to design, build and operate a 1,095 bed prison for the BOP in Moshannon Valley, Pennsylvania (the "Moshannon Valley Correctional
Center"). Construction and activation activities commenced immediately. In June&nbsp;1999, the BOP issued a Stop-Work Order pending a re-evaluation of their environmental
documentation supporting the decision to award the contract. The environmental study was completed with a finding of no significant impact and the Stop-Work Order was lifted by the BOP on
August&nbsp;9, 2001. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
September&nbsp;1999, the Company received correspondence from the Office of the Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania indicating its belief that the operation of a
private prison in Pennsylvania is unlawful. The Company and the BOP have had discussions with the Attorney General's staff regarding these and related issues. As a result of these issues, the Company
has not re-commenced its construction efforts. As of December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company had incurred approximately $16.1&nbsp;million for construction and land development costs and
capitalized interest related to the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. According to the BOP contract, as amended, the Company must have completed the construction of the facility by
April&nbsp;15, 2003. The Company will not be able to complete construction within that time frame. The Company is currently obtaining contract amendments monthly from the BOP. The Company
anticipates obtaining another long-term contract amendment from the BOP extending the construction deadline. In the event the Company is not able to negotiate a contract amendment with the
BOP, then the BOP may have the right to assert that the Company has not completed construction of the facility within the time frame provided in the BOP contract, as amended. Management expects that
the contract will be amended to address cost and construction timing matters resulting from the extended delay. In the event that the BOP decides not to continue with the construction of the Moshannon
Valley Correctional Center and terminates the contract, management believes that the Company has the right to and will recover its invested costs. In the event any portion of these costs are
determined not to be recoverable upon contract termination by the BOP, such costs would be expensed. Management currently believes that the invested costs would be fully recoverable in the event this
contract is terminated. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
March&nbsp;2003, the Company reached an agreement with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that resolves all outstanding administrative issues relative to the contract awarded to the
Company by the
BOP to operate the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. If the Company is able to negotiate an amendment to the contract with the BOP, this agreement will allow the Company to move forward with the
construction and operation of the facility, subject to re-approval of the project by the lender under the Company's amended 2000 Credit Facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
December&nbsp;31, 2002, accounts receivable include costs totaling approximately $1.4&nbsp;million for direct costs incurred by the Company since the issuance of the
Stop-Work Order in June&nbsp;1999 for payroll and other operating costs related to the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. These costs were incurred with the understanding that such
costs would be reimbursed. Although no formal written agreement exists, management believes that these costs will be reimbursed by the BOP in the near term. In the event any portion of these costs is
determined not to be reimbursable, such costs will be expensed. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Development
and construction costs for the New Morgan Academy and the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center have been financed with the Company's synthetic lease financing arrangement
discussed under "Long-Term Credit Facilities". </FONT></P>

president at a cost of approximately $283,000. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
2002, the board of directors authorized the repurchase of an aggregate $10.0&nbsp;million of the Company's outstanding shares. The annual repurchase of shares is limited to
$2.5&nbsp;million, and an aggregate limit of $7.5&nbsp;million, under the amended 2000 Credit Facility. Under the current aggregate limitation under the amended 2000 Credit Facility, the Company

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;One of the directors of the Company is a partner in a law firm that provides legal services to the Company. The Company pays legal fees for such services. Legal
fees paid to this law firm were approximately $1.5&nbsp;million, $2.7&nbsp;million and $1.8&nbsp;million for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The services
rendered to the Company were on terms no more favorable than those with unrelated parties. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
July&nbsp;1996, the Company entered into promissory notes with the Company's former president and the Company's founder, currently a director of the Company. The promissory notes
bear interest at an annual rate of 6.63%, mature in June&nbsp;2004 with no interim interest or principal payments, are full recourse and collateralized by shares of the Company's common stock. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
connection with the Company president's resignation in September&nbsp;2002, the outstanding principal and interest balance of approximately $76,000 and $35,000, respectively, was
repaid. At December&nbsp;31, 2002, the principal and related accrued interest receivable outstanding related to the Company founder's note was approximately $270,000 and $109,000. These amounts are
reflected in deferred costs and other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognized approximately $29,000, $29,000 and $27,000 of interest income related to these
notes for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effective
September&nbsp;1, 1999, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with the Company's founder, currently a director of the Company. As compensation for consulting
services, the Company agreed to an annual payment of at least $255,000 for each of the first four years of the seven-year initial term of the consulting agreement with an annual salary of
at least $180,000 for each of the last three years of the seven-year initial term of the consulting agreement. The Company has an option to renew the consulting agreement for an additional
three-year term at an annual salary of at least $300,000 for each of the three years of the renewal term. As additional compensation, the Company agreed to an annual bonus, subject to

Company's results of operations during the past three years. Most of the Company's facility management contracts provide for payments to the Company of either fixed per diem fees or per diem fees that
increase by only small amounts during the term of the contracts. Inflation could substantially increase the Company's personnel costs (the largest
component of operating expenses) or other operating expenses at rates faster than any increases in contract revenues. </FONT></P>

shareholder and derivative lawsuits, and related insurance coverage (2)&nbsp;risks associated with acquisitions and the integration thereof (including the ability to achieve administrative and
operating cost savings and anticipated synergies), (3)&nbsp;the timing and costs of the opening of new facilities or the expansions of existing facilities, (4)&nbsp;changes in governmental policy
and/or funding to discontinue or not renew existing arrangements or to eliminate or discourage the privatization of correctional, detention and pre-release services in the United States,
(5)&nbsp;the availability of debt and equity financing on terms that are favorable to the Company, (6)&nbsp;fluctuations in operating results because of occupancy, competition (including
competition from two competitors that are substantially larger than the Company), increases in cost of operations, fluctuations in interest rates and risks of operations, (7)&nbsp;significant
charges to expense of deferred costs associated with financing and other projects in development if management determines that one or more of such projects is unlikely to be successfully concluded,

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;With
this in mind, you should consider the risks discussed elsewhere in this report and other documents the Company files with the Commission from time to time and the following
important factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by the Company or on its behalf. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>Public resistance to privatization of correctional and detention facilities could result in the Company's inability to obtain new contracts or the loss
of existing contracts.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Management of correctional and detention facilities by private entities has not achieved complete acceptance by either the government or the public. The movement
toward privatization of correctional and detention facilities has also encountered resistance from certain groups, such as labor unions, local sheriff's departments, and groups believing that
correctional and detention facility operations should only be conducted by government agencies. Changes in the dominant political party in any market in which correctional facilities are located could
have an adverse impact on privatization. Further, some government agencies are not legally permitted to delegate their traditional management responsibilities for correctional and detention facilities
to private companies. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any
of these resistances may make it more difficult for the Company to renew or maintain existing contracts, to obtain new contracts or sites on which to operate new facilities or to
develop or purchase facilities and lease them to government or private entities, any or all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>The Company is subject to the short-term nature of government contracts.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Many governmental agencies are legally limited in their ability to enter into long-term contracts that would bind elected officials responsible for
future budgets. Therefore, many contracts with government agencies typically either have a very short term or are subject to termination on short notice without cause. In addition, the Company's
contracts with government agencies may contain one or more renewal options that may be exercised only by the contracting government agency. No assurance can be given that any agency will exercise a
renewal option in the future. The non-renewal or termination of any of the Company's significant contracts with governmental agencies could materially adversely affect the Company's
financial condition, results of operation and liquidity, including its ability to secure new facility management contracts from others. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>The Company is dependent on government appropriations. If government appropriation levels are reduced, the Company's business may be harmed.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's cash flow is subject to the receipt of sufficient funding of and timely payment by contracting governmental entities. If the appropriate
governmental agency does not receive sufficient appropriations to cover its contractual obligations, a contract may be terminated or the amounts payable to the Company may be deferred or reduced. Any
delays in payment, or the termination of a significant contract, could have an adverse effect on the Company's cash flow and financial condition.
Moreover, as a result of the slowing economy and the events of September&nbsp;11, 2001, federal, state and local governments may encounter unusual budgetary constraints and there is a risk that
spending on outsourced services provided by the Company may be curtailed. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>The Company's ability to win new contracts to develop and manage correctional, detention and treatment facilities depends on many factors outside its
control.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's growth is generally dependent upon its ability to win new contracts to develop and manage new correctional, detention and treatment facilities. This
depends on a number of factors the Company cannot control, including crime rates and sentencing patterns in various jurisdictions. Accordingly, the demand for the Company's facilities could be
adversely affected by the relaxation of </FONT></P>

<!-- ZEQ.=3,SEQ=45,EFW="2111253",CP="CORNELL COMPANIES INC.",DN="1",CHK=854099,FOLIO='45',FILE='DISK014:[03HOU9.03HOU1279]DS1279A.;4',USER='MTRAN',CD='14-MAY-2003;16:34' -->

<P><FONT SIZE=2>enforcement
efforts, leniency in conviction and sentencing practices or through the legal decriminalization of certain activities that are currently proscribed by criminal laws. For instance, any
changes with respect to drugs and controlled substances or illegal immigration could affect the number of persons arrested, convicted and sentenced, thereby potentially reducing demand for
correctional facilities to house them. Similarly, reductions in crime rates could lead to reductions in arrests, convictions and sentences requiring correctional facilities. The Bureau of Justice
Statistics reports that the level of violent crime in the United States has declined steadily since 1994 and the level of property crime is at the lowest level since 1974. However, the number of
detained offenders has grown steadily during that period. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While
the Company believes that governments will continue to privatize correctional, detention and treatment facilities, the Company believes the rate of growth experienced in the state
private corrections industry during the late 1980's and early 1990's is moderating. Certain jurisdictions recently have required successful bidders to make a significant capital investment in
connection with the financing of a particular project, a trend that could require the Company to have sufficient capital resources to compete effectively. The Company may not be able to obtain these
capital resources when needed. Additionally, the Company's success in obtaining new awards and contracts may depend, in part, upon its ability to locate land that can be leased or acquired under
favorable terms. Otherwise desirable locations may be in or near populated areas and, therefore, may generate legal action or other forms of opposition from residents in areas surrounding a proposed
site. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company is currently negotiating a contract amendment with the BOP related to the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. If the Company is unable to successfully negotiate the
amendment with the BOP or if the Company is unable to obtain the re-approval of the project by the lenders under the Company's amended 2000 Credit Facility, the Company will be unable to
move forward with the construction and operation of the facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>The Company's profitability may suffer if the number of offenders occupying its correctional, detention and treatment facilities decreases.  </I></B></FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's correctional, detention and treatment facilities are dependent upon government agencies supplying offenders. A substantial portion of the Company's
revenues is generated under contracts that specify a net rate per day per resident, or a per diem rate, sometimes with no minimum guaranteed occupancy levels, even though most correctional facility
cost structures are relatively fixed. Under such a per diem rate structure, a decrease in occupancy levels at a particular facility could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and
results of operations at such facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>A failure to comply with existing regulations could result in material penalties or non-renewal or termination of the Company's contracts to
manage correctional, detention and treatment facilities.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's industry is subject to a variety of federal, state and local regulations, including education, health care and safety regulations, which are
administered by various regulatory authorities. The Company may not always successfully comply with these regulations, and failure to comply could result in material penalties or
non-renewal or termination of facility management contracts. The contracts typically include extensive reporting requirements and supervision and on-site monitoring by
representatives of contracting government agencies. Corrections officers are customarily required to meet certain training standards, and in some instances facility personnel are required to be
licensed and subject to background investigation. Certain jurisdictions also require the subcontracts to be awarded on a competitive basis or to subcontract with businesses owned by members of
minority groups. The Company's facilities are also subject to operational and financial audits by the governmental agencies with which the Company has contracts. The failure to comply with any
applicable laws, rules or regulations and the loss of any required license could adversely affect the financial condition and results of operations at the Company's affected facilities. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>Government agencies may investigate and audit the Company's contracts and, if any improprieties are found, the Company may be required to refund
revenues it has received, to forego anticipated revenues and may be subject to penalties and sanctions, including prohibitions on the Company's bidding in response to requests for proposals, or RFPs.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Certain of the government agencies the Company contracts with have the authority to audit and investigate the Company's contracts with them. As part of that
process, the government agency reviews the Company's performance on the contract, its pricing practices, its cost structure and its compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards. If the
agency determines that the Company has improperly allocated costs to a specific contract, the Company may not be reimbursed for those costs and the Company could be required to refund the amount of
any such costs that have been reimbursed. If a government audit uncovers improper or illegal activities by the Company or the
Company otherwise determines that these activities have occurred, the Company may be subject to civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, including termination of contracts,
forfeitures of profits, suspension of payments, fines and suspension or disqualification from doing business with the government. Any adverse determination could adversely impact the Company's ability
to bid in response to RFPs in one or more jurisdictions. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>If the Company fails to satisfy its contractual obligations, the Company's ability to compete for future contracts and its financial condition may be
adversely affected.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's failure to comply with contract requirements or to meet its client's performance expectations when performing a contract could materially and
adversely affect the Company's financial performance and its reputation, which, in turn, would impact the Company's ability to compete for new contracts. The Company's failure to meet contractual
obligations could also result in substantial actual and consequential damages. In addition, the Company's contracts often require it to indemnify clients for the Company's failure to meet performance
standards. Some of the Company's contracts contain liquidated damages provisions and financial penalties related to performance failures. Although the Company has liability insurance, the policy
limits may not be adequate to provide protection against all potential liabilities. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>New competitors in the Company's industry may adversely affect the profitability of the Company's business.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company must compete on the basis of cost, quality and range of services offered, experience in managing facilities, reputation of personnel and ability to
design, finance and construct new facilities on a cost effective competitive basis. While there are barriers for companies seeking to enter into the management and operation of correctional, detention
and treatment facilities, there can be no assurance that these barriers will be sufficient to limit additional competition. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>A disturbance in one of the Company's facilities could result in closure of a facility or harm to the Company's business.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An escape, riot or other disturbance at one of the Company's facilities could adversely effect the financial condition, results of operations and liquidity of the
Company's operations. Among other things, the adverse publicity generated as a result of an event could adversely affect the Company's ability to retain an existing contract or obtain future ones. In
addition, if such an event were to occur, there is a possibility that the facility where the event occurred may be shut down by the relevant governmental agency. A closure of certain of the Company's
facilities could adversely affect the financial condition, results of operations and liquidity of the Company's operations. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>Terrorist attacks, such as the attacks that occurred in New York and Washington, D.C. on September&nbsp;11, 2001, and other acts of violence or war
may affect the markets in which the Company's common stock trades, the markets in which the Company operates and the Company's profitability.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Terrorist attacks may negatively affect the Company's operations. There can be no assurance that there will not be further terrorist attacks against the United
States or United States businesses. As a result of terrorism, the United States may enter into a protracted armed conflict, which could have a further impact on the Company's business. In addition,
terrorists attacks in the United States may increase demand for trained security personnel, which could increase the Company's operating costs. Political and economic instability in some regions of
the world may also result and could negatively impact the Company's business. In addition, any of these events may affect the markets in which the Company's common stock trades. The consequences of
any of these armed conflicts are unpredictable and the Company may not be able to foresee events that could have an adverse effect on its business. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>Inaccurate, misleading or negative media coverage could adversely affect the Company's reputation and its ability to bid for government contracts.  </I></B></FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The media frequently focuses its attention on private operators' contracts with government agencies. If the media coverage is negative, it could influence
government officials to slow the pace of outsourcing government services, which could reduce the number of RFPs. The media may also focus its attention on the activities of political consultants
engaged by the Company, even when their activities are unrelated to the Company's business, and the Company may be tainted by adverse media coverage about their activities. Moreover, inaccurate,
misleading or negative media coverage about the Company could harm its reputation and, accordingly, its ability to bid for and win government contracts. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>The Company may incur significant costs before receiving related revenues, which could result in cash shortfalls.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When the Company is awarded a contract to manage a government program, it may incur significant expenses before the Company receives contract payments. These
expenses include leasing office space, purchasing office equipment and hiring and training personnel. As a result, in certain large contracts where the government does not fund program
pre-opening and start-up costs, the Company may be required to invest significant sums of money before receiving related contract payments. In addition, payments due to the
Company from government agencies may be delayed due to billing cycles or as a result of failures to approve governmental budgets and finalize contracts in a timely manner. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B><I>The Company may be unable to attract and retain sufficient qualified personnel necessary to sustain its business.  </I></B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's delivery of services is labor-intensive. When the Company is awarded a government contract, the Company must hire operating management, security,
case management and other personnel. The success of the Company's business requires that the Company attract, develop, motivate and retain these personnel. The Company's inability to hire sufficient
personnel on a timely basis or the loss of significant numbers of personnel could adversely affect its business. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company believes that existing cash and cash equivalents and the cash flows generated from operations, together with the Company's revolving credit available
under the amended 2000 Credit Facility, and the lease capacity thereunder, will be adequate to fund the Company's operating plans for the foreseeable future. However, the Company may need additional

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's facilities may be subject to unforeseen environmental risks. The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, as
amended, or CERCLA, imposes strict, as well as joint and several, liability for certain environmental cleanup costs on several classes of potentially responsible parties, including current owners and
operators of the property and, in some cases, lenders who did not cause or contribute to the contamination. Furthermore, liability under CERCLA is not limited to the original or unamortized principal
balance of a loan or to the value of the property securing a loan. Other federal and state laws in certain circumstances may impose liability for environmental remediation, which costs may be
substantial. Moreover, certain federal statutes and certain states by statute impose a lien for any cleanup costs incurred by such state on the property that is the subject of such cleanup costs. All
subsequent liens on such property generally are subordinated to such an environmental lien and, in some states, even prior recorded liens are subordinated to environmental liens. </FONT></P>

putative class action lawsuits brought on behalf of all purchasers of the Company's common stock between March&nbsp;6, 2001 and March&nbsp;5, 2002. The lawsuits involve disclosures made concerning
two prior transactions executed by the Company: the August&nbsp;2001 sale leaseback transaction and the 2000 synthetic lease transaction. These four lawsuits have all been consolidated into the </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>Graydon Williams</I></FONT><FONT

a consolidated complaint. The consolidated complaint alleges that the defendants violated Section&nbsp;10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"),
Rule&nbsp;10b-5 promulgated under Section&nbsp;10(b) of the Exchange Act, Section&nbsp;20(a) of the Exchange Act and Section&nbsp;11 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933. The
consolidated complaint seeks, among other things, restitution damages, compensatory damages, rescission or rescissory measure of damages, costs, expenses, attorneys' fees and expert fees. </FONT></P>

March&nbsp;2002, the Company, its directors, and its former independent auditor Arthur Andersen LLP, were sued in a derivative action styled as </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>William

against Arthur Andersen LLP. </FONT></P>

May and June&nbsp;2002, the Company and its directors were sued in three other derivative lawsuits styled as follows: (1)&nbsp;</FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Juan Guitierrez,

the 164th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas. These lawsuits all allege breaches of fiduciary duty and waste of corporate assets by all of the defendants. A motion to dismiss the </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>Guitierrez</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>
and </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Pagano</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> lawsuits was filed. The court dismissed the </FONT> <FONT SIZE=2><I>Pagano</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2> action as duplicative of the </FONT><FONT SIZE=2><I>Guitierrez</I></FONT><FONT SIZE=2>action.
The motion to dismiss the

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to market risk, primarily from changes in interest rates. The Company continually monitors exposure to
market risk and develops appropriate strategies to manage this risk. The Company is not exposed to any other significant market risks, including commodity price risk, foreign currency exchange risk or
interest rate risks from the use of derivative financial instruments. Management does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or to speculate on changes in interest rates or commodity
prices. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Interest Rate Exposure  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's exposure to changes in interest rates primarily results from its long-term debt with both fixed and floating interest rates. The debt on
the Company's consolidated financial statements with fixed interest rates consists of the 8.47% Bonds issued by MCF in August&nbsp;2001 in connection with the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction. At
December&nbsp;31, 2002, approximately 20.5% ($49.3&nbsp;million of debt outstanding to the Synthetic Lease Investor) of the Company's consolidated long-term debt was subject to
variable interest rates. The detrimental effect of a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates would be to reduce income before provision for income taxes by approximately $190,000 for
the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002. At December&nbsp;31, 2002, the fair value of the Company's consolidated fixed rate debt approximated carrying value based upon discounted future cash flows
using current market prices. </FONT></P>

the Board of Directors and Stockholders' of<BR>
Cornell Companies,&nbsp;Inc.: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December&nbsp;31, 2002 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders'
equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cornell Companies,&nbsp;Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively the Company) at December&nbsp;31, 2002,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these statements in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. The
consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December&nbsp;31, 2001, and for each of the two years in the period ended December&nbsp;31, 2001, prior to the revision described in
Note&nbsp;3 of the consolidated financial statements, were audited by other independent accountants who have ceased operations. Those independent accountants expressed an unqualified opinion on
those financial statements in their report dated April&nbsp;16, 2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
consolidated statement of cash flows has been revised as discussed in Note&nbsp;16. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
discussed in Note&nbsp;3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill effective January&nbsp;1, 2002. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
discussed above, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December&nbsp;31, 2001, and for each of the two years in the period ended December&nbsp;31, 2001, were
audited by other independent
accountants who have ceased operations. As described in Note&nbsp;3, those financial statements have been revised to include the transitional disclosures required by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No.&nbsp;142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which was adopted by the Company as of January&nbsp;1, 2002. We audited the transitional disclosures for 2001 and 2000
included in Note&nbsp;3. In our opinion, the transitional disclosures for 2001 and 2000 in Note&nbsp;3 are appropriate. However, we were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to
the 2001 or 2000 financial statements of the Company other than with respect to such disclosures and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the 2001 or 2000
financial statements taken as a whole. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cornell Companies,&nbsp;Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries and consolidated special purpose entities, the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, provides to
governmental agencies the integrated development, design, construction and management of facilities within three operating divisions: (1)&nbsp;adult secure institutional, correctional and detention
services, (2)&nbsp;juvenile treatment, educational and detention services and (3)&nbsp;pre-release correctional and treatment services. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Consolidation  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and interests in partnerships that are
special purpose entities or may be virtual special purpose entities for which the Company owns no partnership interest, but for financial reporting purposes only, has consolidated such special purpose
entities as discussed below. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Minority interest in consolidated special purpose entities represents equity that other
investors have contributed to the special purpose entities. Minority interest is adjusted for income and losses allocable to the owners of the special purpose entities. As the cumulative losses of the
special purpose entity exceed the equity that is recorded as minority interest by the Company, the excess losses are recorded in the Company's Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company's lease financing arrangement under its 2000 Credit Facility is a "synthetic lease". A synthetic lease is a form of lease financing that qualifies for operating lease
accounting treatment and, when all criteria pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") are met, are accounted for, "off-balance sheet". Under such a
structure, the owner/lessor of the properties ("Synthetic Lease Investor") may be considered a virtual special purpose entity when it obtains debt and equity capital to finance the acquisition or
construction of project(s) and leases the projects to a company. This financial structure was used to finance the construction of the New Morgan Academy completed in the first quarter of 2001, the
acquisition of the Taylor Street Center building in early 1999, and the construction-to-date costs of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. The synthetic lease used by the
Company to finance the above projects was executed in December&nbsp;1998 and was amended in July&nbsp;2000 whereby the available financing was increased from $40.0&nbsp;million to
$100.0&nbsp;million and the lease term extended to July&nbsp;2005. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
current accounting rules, a Synthetic Lease Investor is treated as a virtual special purpose entity as described above, must maintain at least 3.0% equity ownership interest in the
property throughout the life of the lease. The Company's synthetic lease documents, as amended in July&nbsp;2000, provide for the equity investor to fund 3.5% of project costs. There are provisions
in the lease and related credit documents for the lenders and Synthetic Lease Investor to fund and be paid interest, yield and fees. Under current GAAP rules, the payment of any yield and/or fees to
the investors is required to be treated as a return of capital rather than a return on capital. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Synthetic Lease Investor for the above mentioned projects received payments to act as co-arranger in the structure of the initial $40.0&nbsp;million synthetic lease
facility in 1998 and in July&nbsp;2000 when the synthetic lease facility was increased to $100.0&nbsp;million. Although the Company does not believe the lessor of the Synthetic Lease is a special
purpose entity, the lessor is considered a virtual special purpose entity under certain accounting interpretations. Therefore, the payments discussed above could be interpreted to reduce the Synthetic
Lease Investor's equity ownership in the above </FONT></P>

projects below the required 3.0% level as of the second quarter of 2000. Pursuant to this interpretation, the Company's synthetic leases no longer qualified for off-balance sheet
treatment as of the beginning of the second quarter of 2000. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and the related results of operations of the synthetic lease owned by the Synthetic Lease Investor
have been consolidated in the Company's financial statements as of that time. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
a result of consolidating the synthetic lease assets and liabilities, the Company's accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect, among other things, the depreciation
expense on the associated properties and interest expense related to the Synthetic Lease Investor's debt instead of rent expense. For income tax purposes, the Company recognizes rent expense pursuant
to the terms of its lease with the Synthetic Lease Investor and does not consolidate the assets, liabilities or the results of operations of the Synthetic Lease Investor. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
August&nbsp;14, 2001, the Company completed an arms' length sale and leaseback transaction involving 11 of its real estate facilities (the "2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction").
The Company sold the facilities to an unaffiliated company, Municipal Corrections Finance, L.P. ("MCF"), and is leasing them back for an initial period of 20&nbsp;years, with approximately
25&nbsp;years of additional renewal period options. The Company received $173.0&nbsp;million of proceeds from the sale of these facilities. The proceeds were used to repay $120.0&nbsp;million of
the Company's long-term debt and the remainder was invested in short-term securities, $43.1&nbsp;million of this amount being invested in securities held as collateral for
the Company's Credit Facility. See Note&nbsp;8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;MCF
is an unaffiliated special purpose entity ("SPE"). Under current accounting rules, an SPE's equity investor must maintain at least a 3.0% equity ownership interest throughout the
life of the lease. In September&nbsp;2001, the Company entered into a retainer agreement with an affiliate of the equity investor in MCF ("MCF Equity Investor"), and in November&nbsp;2001, paid
the MCF Equity Investor a retainer fee of $3.65&nbsp;million for financial advisory services related to potential future financing projects and the strategic development of the Company's business.
Under certain accounting interpretations, this retainer has been deemed to reduce the equity investment in MCF to below the required 3.0% level. As a result, the Company has consolidated the assets,
liabilities, and the results of operations of MCF in the Company's accompanying consolidated financial statements as of August&nbsp;14, 2001. As a result of consolidating the assets and liabilities
of MCF, the Company's consolidated financial statements reflect, among other things, the depreciation expense on the associated properties and interest expense on the bond debt of MCF used to finance
MCF's acquisition of the 11 facilities in the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction, instead of rent expense. For income tax purposes, the Company recognizes rent expense pursuant to the terms of its
lease with MCF and does not consolidate the assets, liabilities or the results of operations of MCF. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
cumulative losses of MCF exceeded the recorded minority interest of MCF during the first quarter of 2002. The cumulative losses of the Synthetic Lease Investor exceeded the recorded
minority interest of the Synthetic Lease Investor during the third quarter of 2001. Since the cumulative losses of MCF and the Synthetic Lease Investor exceed the equity that was recorded as minority
interest by the Company, the excess losses can no longer be allocated to the minority interest in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations in 2002. In the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2002, the Company recorded minority interest expense of approximately $0.6&nbsp;million as a result of a distribution made by MCF to its equity investors. </FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company considers all highly liquid unrestricted investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company invests its
available cash balances in short term money market accounts and commercial paper. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Accounts Receivable  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company extends credit to the governmental agencies and other parties contracted with in the normal course of business. Further, management of the Company
regularly reviews outstanding receivables, and provides estimated losses through an allowance for doubtful accounts. In evaluating the adequacy of this allowance for doubtful accounts, management
makes judgments regarding its customers' ability to make required payments, economic events and other factors. As the financial condition of these parties change, circumstances develop or additional
information becomes available, adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts may be required. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
December&nbsp;31, 2002, accounts receivable include costs totaling approximately $1.4&nbsp;million for direct costs incurred by the Company since the issuance of a
Stop-Work Order by the Federal Bureau of Prisons ("BOP") in June&nbsp;1999 for payroll and other operating costs related to the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. These costs were
incurred at the direction of the BOP with the understanding that such costs would be reimbursed. Although no formal written agreement exists, management believes that these costs will be reimbursed by
the BOP. In the event any portion of these costs are not reimbursed by the BOP, such costs will be expensed. See Note&nbsp;12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. </FONT></P>

<UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Restricted Assets  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Included in restricted assets at December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001 was approximately $12.4&nbsp;million and $10.2&nbsp;million, respectively, of MCF's
restricted cash accounts. MCF's restricted accounts are comprised principally of a debt service fund used to segregate rental payment funds from the Company to MCF for MCF's semi-annual
debt service. MCF's funds are invested in short term certificates of deposit, money market accounts and commercial paper. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For
certain facilities, the Company maintains bank accounts for restricted cash belonging to offenders or residents, commissary operations and an equipment replacement fund used in state
programs. These bank accounts and commissary inventories are collectively referred to as restricted assets and the corresponding obligations are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying
financial statements. Restricted inmate accounts were approximately $2.1&nbsp;million and $2.2&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Included
in restricted assets at December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001 was approximately $300,000 and $3.6&nbsp;million of assets held in a rabbi trust for a deferred bonus plan. See
Note&nbsp;10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. </FONT></P>

<UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Property and Equipment  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Ordinary maintenance and repair costs are expensed, while renewal and betterment costs are capitalized. Buildings and
improvements are depreciated over their estimated useful lives of 30 to 50&nbsp;years using the straight-line method. Prepaid facility use cost, which resulted from the July&nbsp;1996
acquisition of the Big Spring Complex and the December&nbsp;1999 transfer of ownership of the Great Plains Correctional Facility to a leasehold interest, is being amortized over 50&nbsp;years
using the straight-line method. Furniture and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 10&nbsp;years using the straight-line method. Amortization
of leasehold improvements is recorded using the straight-line method based upon the shorter of the life of the asset or the term of the respective lease. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company capitalizes interest on facilities while under development and construction. Interest capitalized for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, 2001
and 2000 was approximately $823,000, $1.3&nbsp;million and $2.0&nbsp;million, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The debt service reserve fund was established at the closing of MCF's bond issuance and is to be used solely for MCF's debt service to the extent that funds in
MCF's debt services are insufficient. The debt service reserve fund is invested in short term commercial instruments and earns a guaranteed rate of return of 3.0%. See Note&nbsp;11 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Deferred Costs  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Costs incurred related to obtaining debt financing are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related indebtedness. At December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001,
the Company and its consolidated special purpose entities had net deferred debt issuance costs of approximately $7.5&nbsp;million and $9.0&nbsp;million, respectively. </FONT></P>

<UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Realization of Long-Lived Assets  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In October&nbsp;2001, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No.&nbsp;144
supersedes SFAS No.&nbsp;121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." For assets held and used in operations, SFAS
No.&nbsp;144 follows the framework established in SFAS No.&nbsp;121, which provides for the evaluation of impairment based on management's estimates of future operating results and cash flows. The
Company's adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;144 on January&nbsp;1, 2002 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations. As of December&nbsp;31, 2002,
management of the Company believes that its long-lived assets are realizable and that no impairment allowance is necessary. </FONT></P>

<UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Revenue Recognition  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Substantially all revenues are derived from contracts with federal, state and local government agencies, which pay either per diem rates based upon the number of
occupant days or hours served for the period, on a take-or-pay basis or cost-plus reimbursement. Revenues are recognized as services are provided under established
contractual agreements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Management
believes its revenue recognition practices are in conformity with the guidelines prescribed in Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Staff Accounting Bulletin
No.&nbsp;101, "Revenue Recognition." </FONT></P>

<UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Income Taxes  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes as required by SFAS No.&nbsp;109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under this method,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases based on enacted tax rates. In providing for deferred taxes, management considers current tax regulations, estimates of future </FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The purpose of these financial
statements require that management make certain estimates and judgements that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities. Management of the Company evaluates its estimates on an on-going basis, based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The assets and liabilities and the results of operations of the synthetic lease owned
by the Synthetic Lease Investor and of MCF have been consolidated in the Company's accompanying consolidated financial statements. The significant estimates made by management in the accompanying
financial statements include the
allowance for doubtful accounts, accruals for insurance and legal costs and the realizability of long-lived assets. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Business Concentration  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Contracts with federal, state and local governmental agencies account for nearly all of the Company's revenues. The loss of, or a significant decrease in,
business from one or more of these governmental agencies could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. For the years ended December&nbsp;31,
2002, 2001 and 2000, 20.9%, 20.2% and 21.4%, respectively, of the Company's consolidated revenues were derived from contracts with the BOP, the only customer constituting more than 10.0% of revenues
during each of these periods. </FONT></P>

<UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Insurance Coverage  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company maintains insurance coverage for various aspects of its business and operations. The Company retains a portion of the losses that occur through the
use of deductibles and retention under the self-insurance programs. Management regularly reviews the estimates of reported and unreported claims and provides for losses through insurance
reserves. As claims develop and additional information becomes available, adjustments to loss reserves may be required. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company considers the fair value of all its financial instruments not to be materially different from their reported carrying values at the end of each year

Employees" ("APB No.&nbsp;25"). In accordance with the provisions of APB No.&nbsp;25, stock-based employee compensation cost is not reflected in net income, as all options granted under those
plans had an exercise price equal to or in excess of the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates in accordance with SFAS No.&nbsp;148 the
effect of net income and earnings per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to stock-based
employee compensation (in thousands, expect per share amounts): </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Earnings Per Share  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution from common stock equivalents such as stock options and warrants. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, there were 363,903 shares
($16.28 average price), 249,603 shares ($27.31 average price) and 593,604 shares ($12.36 average price), respectively, of stock options that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because
to do so would have been anti-dilutive. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Derivative instruments are recognized in accordance with the provisions of SFAS Nos. 133 and 138, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,"
as amended. The Company has only entered into derivative contracts that are classified as hedged derivatives. These hedged derivatives are recorded at their fair value with changes in fair value
reported in other comprehensive income. See Note&nbsp;11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. </FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effective January&nbsp;1, 2002 the Company adopted the new requirement of SFAS No.&nbsp;141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No.&nbsp;142, "Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets". The new rules under these statements require that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations and specifies the criteria for the recognition of
intangible assets separately from goodwill. Under the new rules, goodwill is no longer amortized but is subject to an impairment test annually. Other intangible assets that meet the new criteria under
the new rules will continue to be amortized over their remaining useful lives. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
following table reflects, on a pro forma basis, the results of operations as though goodwill was no longer amortized, as a result of the adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;142, as of
January&nbsp;1, 2000 (in thousands, except per share amounts): </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effective January&nbsp;1, 2001, the Company changed its method of accounting for durable supplies whereby the Company capitalizes durable operating supply
purchases such as uniforms, linens and books and
amortizes these costs to operating expense over an estimated period of benefit of 18&nbsp;months. Effective January&nbsp;1, 2001, the Company capitalized a portion of previously expensed durable
operating supplies and, as a result, recognized a benefit of approximately $770,000 (net of an income tax benefit of approximately $535,000) which has been reflected as a cumulative effect of a change
in accounting principle in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2000 the pro forma impact of this change in
accounting would have been immaterial. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In June&nbsp;2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No.&nbsp;143, "Accounting for
Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No.&nbsp;143") which requires entities to recognize the fair value of a liability for legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible
long-lived assets in the period incurred, if a reasonable estimate of the fair value can be made. The Company adopted SFAS No.&nbsp;143 in January&nbsp;2003. Management believes there
will be no material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or stockholders' equity as a result of the adoption of this new pronouncement. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
April&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;145, "Rescission of SFAS Nos. 4, 44, 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;13, and Technical Corrections," effective for fiscal
years beginning after May&nbsp;15, 2002 ("SFAS No.&nbsp;145"). SFAS No.&nbsp;145 rescinds SFAS Nos. 4, 44, 64 and amends SFAS No.&nbsp;13, "Accounting for Leases," to eliminate an
inconsistency between the required accounting for sale and leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale and
leaseback transactions. Additionally, SFAS No.&nbsp;145 requires gains and losses on the extinguishment of debt to be classified as income or loss from continuing operations </FONT></P>

than as extraordinary items as previously required under SFAS No.&nbsp;4. The Company adopted SFAS No.&nbsp;145, as required, on January&nbsp;1, 2003. The Company recorded an
extraordinary charge of approximately $0.5&nbsp;million, net of income tax of $0.3&nbsp;million, in the third quarter of 2001 for the early retirement of debt. Additionally, in the fourth quarter
of 2001, the Company recognized an extraordinary charge of approximately $2.9&nbsp;million, net of income taxes of $2.0&nbsp;million, for the write-off of the related unamortized
deferred debt issuance costs, debt discount and assessed contractual prepayment fees as a result of the early retirement of the Company's subordinated notes. As a result of the adoption of the
provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;145, for financial reporting periods subsequent to December&nbsp;31, 2002, gains and losses on the extinguishment of debt previously reflected as an extraordinary
charge will be reclassified to an expense from continuing operations before income taxes. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
July&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities ("SFAS No.&nbsp;146"), which addresses the financial
accounting and reporting associated with exit or disposal activities initiated after December&nbsp;31, 2002. Under SFAS No.&nbsp;146, costs associated with an exit or disposal activity should be
recognized and measured at the fair value in the period in which the
liability is incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No.&nbsp;146 for all exit and disposal activities initiated after
December&nbsp;31, 2002. Management believes there will be no material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or stockholders' equity as result of the adoption of this new

December&nbsp;31, 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation&#151;Transition and Disclosure" which amends SFAS No.&nbsp;123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." SFAS No.&nbsp;148 provides two additional alternative transition methods for recognizing an entity's voluntary decision to change its method of accounting
for stock-based employee compensation to the fair-value method. In addition, SFAS No.&nbsp;148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.&nbsp;123 so that entities will have to
(1)&nbsp;make more-prominent disclosures regarding the pro forma effects of using the fair-value method of accounting for stock-based compensation, (2)&nbsp;present those
disclosures in a more accessible format in the footnotes to the annual financial statements and (3)&nbsp;include those disclosures in interim financial statements. SFAS No.&nbsp;148's transition
guidance and provisions for annual disclosures are effective for fiscal years ending after December&nbsp;15, 2002 and the related disclosures are contained in Note&nbsp;10 to these financial
statements. The provisions for interim-period disclosures are effective for financial reports that contain financial statements for interim periods beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2002. The

November&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No.&nbsp;45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others." FIN 45 requires a guarantor to include disclosure of certain obligations, and if applicable, at the inception of the guarantee, recognize a liability for the fair value of
other certain obligations undertaken in issuing a guarantee. The provisions related to the disclosure requirements are effective for financial statement periods ending after December&nbsp;15, 2002.
The provisions related to recognition and measurement of guarantees are effective for financial statement periods beginning after December&nbsp;31, 2002 on a prospective basis. The Company has
adopted the disclosure provisions of FIN 45 in these financial statements. The Company adopted the provisions related to the recognition and measurement of guarantees as of January&nbsp;1, 2003.

the enterprise must discuss the following information in all financial statements issued after January&nbsp;31, 2003: (1)&nbsp;the nature, purpose, size or activities of the variable interest

the Company's investment in both of these facilities is based on management's judgements and expectations related to legislative activities, economic events and other factors. Management has also

in July&nbsp;2002 and by outstanding letters of credit. Accordingly, the available commitment amount under the amended 2000 Credit Facility was approximately $36.7&nbsp;million at
December&nbsp;31, 2002. The Company had outstanding letters of credit of approximately $5.1&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2002. The amended 2000 Credit Facility matures in July&nbsp;2005
and bears interest, at the election of the Company, at either the prime rate plus a margin of 2.0%, or a rate which is 3.0% above the applicable LIBOR rate. The amended 2000 Credit Facility is
collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets, including the stock of all of the Company's subsidiaries; does not permit the payment of cash dividends; and requires the Company to comply
with certain leverage, net worth and debt service coverage covenants. Additionally, the Company is limited to $2.5&nbsp;million annually for the repurchase of its common stock an aggregate limit of
$7.5&nbsp;million. The Company has obtained a waiver from the lenders under the amended 2000 Credit Facility regarding the pending contractual default for the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center's
construction delay. This waiver is effective through October&nbsp;31, 2004. Included in the Company's cash and cash equivalents at December&nbsp;31, 2002 is approximately $39.4&nbsp;million that
is invested in a separate account that is available to the Company for investment purposes or working capital with the approval of the lenders under the amended 2000 Credit Facility. This separate
account is maintained, in part, to assure future credit availability. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally,
the amended 2000 Credit Facility provides the Company with the ability to enter into synthetic lease agreements for the acquisition or development of operating facilities.
This synthetic lease financing arrangement provides for funding to the lessor under the operating leases of up to $100.0&nbsp;million, of which approximately $51.0&nbsp;million had been utilized
as of December&nbsp;31, 2002. The Company expects to utilize the remaining capacity under this synthetic lease financing arrangement to complete construction of the Moshannon Valley Correctional
Center. The Synthetic Lease Investor's Note&nbsp;A and Note&nbsp;B have total credit commitments of $81.4&nbsp;million and $15.1&nbsp;million, respectively. The Company pays commitment fees at
a rate of 0.5% annually for the unused portion of the synthetic lease financing capacity. The Synthetic Lease Investor's Notes A and B are cross-collateralized with the Company's revolving line of
credit and contain cross-default provisions. </FONT></P>

August&nbsp;14, 2001, MCF issued $197.4&nbsp;million of 8.47% taxable revenue bonds due August&nbsp;1, 2016. Interest on the bonds is payable by MCF semi-annually on
February&nbsp;1 and August&nbsp;1, commencing February&nbsp;1, 2002, and principal is due in escalating annual installments commencing August&nbsp;1, 2002. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
August&nbsp;14, 2001, the Company repaid the $50.0&nbsp;million of outstanding 7.74% Senior Secured Notes with a portion of the proceeds from the 2001 Sale and Leaseback
Transaction. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On
November&nbsp;30, 2001 the Company completed an offering of its common stock. Net proceeds from the sale of 3,450,000 of newly issued shares were approximately $43.8&nbsp;million.
The Company used a portion of the proceeds to repay outstanding borrowings of $39.4&nbsp;million and retire the notes under the
Company's Note and Equity Purchase Agreements (the "Subordinated Notes") entered into in July&nbsp;2000. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
a result of the early retirement of the Subordinated Notes during the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company recognized an extraordinary charge of $2.9&nbsp;million, net of income
taxes of $2.0&nbsp;million, due to the write-off of the related unamortized deferred debt issuance costs, debt discount and assessed contractual prepayment fees. As a result of the
adoption of the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;145, for financial reporting periods subsequent to December&nbsp;31, 2002, gains and losses on the extinguishment of debt previously reflected as an
extraordinary charge will be reclassified to an expense from continuing operations before income taxes. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and provide general

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company leases office space, certain facilities and furniture and equipment under long-term operating leases. Rent expense for all operating
leases for the years ended
December&nbsp;31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, was approximately $9.0&nbsp;million, $11.4&nbsp;million and $9.7&nbsp;million, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under
the amended 2000 Credit Facility, the Company entered into an operating lease agreements that are considered to be a virtual special purpose entity for the acquisition or
development of operating facilities. This synthetic lease financing arrangement provides for funding from the virtual special purpose entity under the operating leases of up to $100.0&nbsp;million,
of which approximately $51.0&nbsp;million had been utilized as of December&nbsp;31, 2002. The remaining capacity under this synthetic lease financing arrangement is expected to be utilized to
complete the construction of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. At December&nbsp;31, 2002, approximately $16.1&nbsp;million of had been utilized under this synthetic lease financing
arrangement for construction costs for the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. The leases under this arrangement each have a term of the lesser of five years or July&nbsp;2005, include purchase
and renewal options, and provide for residual value guarantees for each lease that average 81.4% of the total cost and would be due by the Company upon termination of the leases. Upon termination of a
lease, the Company could either exercise a purchase option, or the facilities could be sold to a third party. The Company expects the fair market value of the leased facilities to substantially reduce
or eliminate the Company's potential obligation under the residual value guarantee. At December&nbsp;31, 2002, there were two operating leases under this arrangement. Lease payments under the lease
financing arrangements are variable and are adjusted for changes in interest rates. </FONT></P>

May&nbsp;11, 1998, received one Preferred Stock Purchase Right ("Right") for each share of common stock held. The Rights expire on May&nbsp;1, 2008. Each Right initially entitles the stockholder
to purchase one one-thousandth of a Series&nbsp;A Junior Participating Preferred Share for $120.00. Each Preferred Share has terms designed to make it economically equivalent to one
thousand common shares. The Rights will become exercisable only in the event a person or group acquires 15% or more of the Company's common stock or commences a tender or exchange offer which, if
consummated, would result in that person or group owning 15% or </FONT></P>

of the Company's common stock. If a person or group acquires a 15% or more position in the Company, each Right (except those held by the acquiring party) will then entitle its holder to purchase,
at the exercise price, common stock of the Company having a value of twice the exercise price. The effect will be to entitle the holder to buy the common stock at 50% of the market price. Also, if
following an acquisition of 15% or more of the Company's common stock, the Company is acquired by that person or group in a merger or other business combination transaction, each Right would then
entitle its holder to purchase common stock of the acquiring company having a value of twice the exercise price. The effect will be to entitle the Company's stockholders to buy stock in the acquiring
company at 50% of the market price. The Company may redeem the Rights at $0.01 per Right at any time prior to the acquisition of 15% or more of its common stock by a person or group. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In December&nbsp;2000, the Company adopted the 2000 Broad-Based Employee Plan ("2000 Plan"). Pursuant to the 2000 Plan, the Company may grant
non-qualified stock options for up to the greater of 515,232 shares or 4% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding. The 2000 Plan options vest up to five years and
expire ten years from the grant date. In May&nbsp;1996, the Company adopted the 1996 Stock Option Plan and amended and restated the plan in April&nbsp;1998 ("1996 Plan"). Pursuant to the 1996
Plan, the Company may grant non-qualified and incentive stock options for up to the greater of 1,932,119 shares or 15.0% of the aggregate number of shares of
common stock outstanding. The 1996 Plan options vest up to seven years and expire seven to ten years from the grant date. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which is comprised of
independent directors, is responsible for determining the exercise price and vesting terms for the granted options. The 1996 Plan and 2000 Plan option exercise prices can be no less than the market
price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
conjunction with the issuance of the Subordinated Notes in July&nbsp;2000, the Company issued warrants to purchase 290,370 shares of the common stock at an exercise price of $6.70.
The Company recognized the fair value of these warrants of $1.1&nbsp;million as additional paid-in capital. The warrants may only be exercised by payment of the exercise price in cash to
the Company, by cancellation of an amount of warrants equal to the fair market value of the exercise price, or by the cancellation of Company indebtedness owed to the warrant holder. During 2001,
168,292 shares of Common Stock were issued in conjunction with the exercise and cancellation of 217,778 warrants. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For
purposes of the pro forma disclosures in Note&nbsp;2, under SFAS No.&nbsp;123, the fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model. The following weighted average assumptions were used for grants in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 5.1%, 5.0% and 5.4%; dividend rates
of $0, $0 and $0; expected lives of 7.0, 10.0 and 6.6&nbsp;years; expected volatility of 57.58%, 53.35% and 52.76%. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Black-Scholes option pricing model and other existing models were developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully
transferrable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of, and are highly sensitive to, subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. The Company's employee
stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Notes from Shareholders  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On July&nbsp;8, 1996, the Company's former president (see below) and the Company founder, currently a director of the Company, each exercised options to
purchase an aggregate 82,750 and 137,110, respectively, of shares of Class&nbsp;A Common Stock and Class&nbsp;B Common Stock at an aggregate price of $180,638 and $274,220, respectively. In
connection with each exercise, each former officer entered into a promissory note with the Company for the respective aggregate exercise amounts. The promissory notes bear interest at an annual rate
of 6.63%, mature in June&nbsp;2004 with no interim interest or principal payments, are full recourse and collateralized by shares of the Company's common stock. In September&nbsp;2002, the Company
purchased at fair value 35,000 shares of its common stock from the Company's former president at a cost of approximately $283,000. In connection with that stock purchase, the Company's former
president repaid $283,000 representing the accrued interest and a portion of the outstanding related principal former loan balance. Additionally, in December&nbsp;2002, the Company's former
president surrendered stock options with a fair value of approximately $77,000 which was used to repay a portion of his remaining balance. The fair value of these stock options were expensed by the
Company in the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002. At December&nbsp;31, 2002, the balance due from the Company's former president aggregated approximately $23,000 and the balance of principal and
interest due from the Company's founder aggregated approximately $419,000. The Company recognized approximately $41,000, $42,000 and $39,000 of interest income related to these shareholder notes for
the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Deferred Bonus Plan  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company established a deferred bonus plan for certain employees. Pursuant to the plan, approximately $4.7&nbsp;million was
deposited on behalf of individual participants into a rabbi trust account, which included approximately $3.6&nbsp;million in cash and $1.1&nbsp;million in Company treasury stock. The treasury
stock portion of the rabbi trust is to remain as treasury stock, while the participants may give investment directions to the trustee as to the cash portion, subject to certain limitations. The
investments of the rabbi trust represent assets of the Company and are included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the nature of the assets held. Assets placed into the rabbi
trust are irrevocable; therefore they are restricted as to the Company's use under the terms of the trust and the deferred bonus plan. Amounts held in the rabbi trust are generally distributable upon
vesting. At December&nbsp;31, 2002, restricted assets and other current assets included approximately $300,000 and $226,000, respectively, of deposits in a rabbi trust. For the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2001, restricted assets included $3.6&nbsp;million of cash in a rabbi trust. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002, approximately $1.3&nbsp;million was paid from plan
assets as a result of the removal of the Company's
former president from the plan due to his resignation as president in September&nbsp;2002. Additionally, approximately $1.0&nbsp;million of deferred bonus plan assets were forfeited and returned
to the Company as a result of his resignation. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
plan generally vests 100.0% upon the achievement of an aggregate amount of monthly credits (based on a fixed monthly earnings milestone) expected to occur at the end of five years
beginning October&nbsp;1, 2001. Vesting will accelerate to 60.0% at the end of three years if certain earnings targets are achieved. Based on the expected earnings period, compensation expense and
the related compensation liability for the aggregate plan value are being recognized over five years. To the extent the vesting is extended or accelerated based on the achievement of the financial
milestones, recognition of compensation expense will be adjusted on a prospective basis. For the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001, the Company expensed approximately $92,000 and $234,000,
respectively, under the deferred bonus plan. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While
periodic gains on the value of each participant's investments held in the rabbi trust are recorded currently in income, an equal amount of compensation expense and related
compensation liability is recorded, since participants are fully vested in such gains. Periodic losses incurred by participants in their invested balances are recorded as incurred. Such losses in
excess of a participant's recorded compensation expense are guaranteed by the participants with a full-recourse obligation to the Company. These guarantees function to offset the loss on
investments to the extent the obligations are not reserved for collectibility by the Company. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><I> Debt Service Reserve Fund and Debt Service Fund  </I></FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In August&nbsp;2001, MCF completed a bond offering to finance the 2001 Sale and Leaseback Transaction. In connection with this bond offering, two reserve fund
accounts were established by MCF pursuant to the terms of the indenture: (1)&nbsp;MCF's Debt Service Reserve Fund, aggregating $24.2&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2002, was established to
make payments on MCF's outstanding bonds in the event the Company (as lessee) should fail to make the scheduled rental payments to MCF and (2)&nbsp;MCF's Debt Service Fund, aggregating
$12.4&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2002, used to accumulate the monthly lease payments that MCF receives from the Company until such funds are used to pay MCF's semi-annual bond
interest and annual bond principal payments. Both reserve fund accounts are subject to the agreements with the MCF Equity Investors whereby guaranteed rates of return of 3.0% and 5.08%, respectively,
are provided for in the balance of the Debt Service Reserve Fund and the Debt Service Fund. The guaranteed rates of return are characterized as cash flow hedge derivative instruments. At inception,
the derivatives had an aggregate fair value of $4.0&nbsp;million, which has been recorded as a decrease to the equity investment in MCF made by the MCF Equity Investors ("MCF minority interest") and
as a deferred liability in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments are recorded as an adjustment to deferred income and reported as other
comprehensive income in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. At December&nbsp;31, 2002, the fair value of these derivative instruments was approximately
$2.1&nbsp;million. As a result, the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income include accumulated other comprehensive income of approximately $1.9&nbsp;million.
There is no difference between net income and comprehensive income for 2001 and 2000. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
connection with MCF's bond offering, the MCF Equity Investor provided a guarantee of the Debt Service Reserve Fund if a bankruptcy of the Company were to occur and a trustee for the
estate of the Company were to include the Debt Service Reserve Fund as an asset of the Company's estate. This guarantee is characterized as an insurance contract. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The New Morgan Academy was completed and became operational in two phases during the fourth quarter of 2000 and the first quarter of 2001. In 2002, the New Morgan
Academy experienced a reduction in occupancy as a result of budget appropriation reductions of a significant customer in Pennsylvania. On September&nbsp;27, 2002, the Company announced plans to
close the New Morgan Academy. The Company consented to relinquish its license issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare in lieu of the department implementing its decision to revoke the
facility's provisional license due to operating incidents at the facility. The Company closed the facility in the fourth quarter of 2002 and is currently considering several alternatives for the
reutilization of the facility for another type of program as well as possibly selling the facility. The Company is maintaining a small staff to maintain the facility while the Company considers its
options for the use or sale of the facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
carrying value of the property and equipment at the New Morgan Academy was approximately $31.3&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2002. Currently, management of the Company is
exploring several potential alternative uses for the facility. Management performed a probability-weighted recoverability analysis and believes that, based on its analysis, the long-lived
assets at the New Morgan Academy are recoverable from the range of alternative courses of action. Accordingly, pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;144, an impairment allowance is not deemed
necessary as of December&nbsp;31, 2002. However, </FONT></P>

estimates that, were the Company to sell the facility, it is reasonably possible that the Company would not be able to fully recover the carrying value of its long-lived assets
for this facility. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
April&nbsp;1999, the Company was awarded a contract to design, build and operate a 1,095 bed prison for the BOP in Moshannon Valley, Pennsylvania (the "Moshannon Valley Correctional
Center"). Construction and activation activities commenced immediately. In June&nbsp;1999, the BOP issued a Stop-Work Order pending a re-evaluation of its environmental
documentation supporting the decision to award the contract. The environmental study was completed with a finding of no significant impact and the Stop-Work Order was lifted by the BOP on
August&nbsp;9, 2001. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
September&nbsp;1999, the Company received correspondence from the Office of the Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania indicating its belief that the operation of a
private prison in Pennsylvania is unlawful. The Company and the BOP have had discussions with the Attorney General's staff regarding these and related issues. As a result of these issues, the Company
has not re-commenced its construction efforts. As of December&nbsp;31, 2002, the Company had incurred approximately $16.1&nbsp;million for construction and land development costs and
capitalized interest related to the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. According to the BOP contract, as amended, the Company must complete the construction of the project by April&nbsp;15, 2003.
The Company will not be able to complete construction within that time frame. The Company is currently obtaining contract amendments monthly from the BOP. The Company anticipates obtaining another
long-term contract amendment from the BOP extending the construction deadline. In the event the Company is not able to negotiate a contract amendment with the BOP, then the BOP may have
the right to assert that the Company has not completed construction of the facility within the time frame provided in the BOP contract, as amended. Management expects that the contract will be amended
to address cost and construction timing matters resulting from the extended delay. In the event that the BOP decides not to continue with the construction of the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center
and terminates the contract, management believes that the Company has the right to and will recover its invested costs. In the event any portion of these costs are determined not to be recoverable
upon contract termination by the BOP, such costs would be expensed. Management currently believes that the invested costs would be fully recoverable in the event of this contract being terminated. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
December&nbsp;31, 2002, accounts receivable include costs totaling approximately $1.4&nbsp;million for direct costs incurred by the Company since the issuance of the
Stop-Work Order in June&nbsp;1999
for incremental payroll and other operating costs related to the Moshannon Valley Correctional Center. These costs were incurred at the direction of the BOP with the understanding that such costs
would be reimbursed by the BOP. Although no formal written agreement exists, management believes that these costs will be reimbursed by the BOP in the near term. In the event any portion of these
costs are determined not to be reimbursable, such costs will be expensed. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effective
September&nbsp;1, 1999, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with the Company's founder, currently a director of the Company. As compensation for consulting
services, the Company agreed to an annual payment of at least $255,000 for each of the first four years of the seven-year initial term of the consulting agreement with an annual salary of
at least $180,000 for each of the last three years of the seven-year initial term of the consulting agreement. The Company has an option to renew the consulting agreement for an additional

certain limitations, equal to $75,000 during the first four years of the seven-year initial term and an annual bonus of $60,000 during the last three years of the seven-year
initial term and during any renewal term. The Company also agreed to grant options to purchase an aggregate 120,000 shares of the Company's common stock in four equal annual installments beginning
September&nbsp;1, 2000. The options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant and vest at the time such options are granted, subject to
certain limitations on exercise. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The 2002 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows has been revised to classify the rental payments made by the Company into the restricted debt service fund as
investing cash outflows rather than as financing cash outflows. Payments made from the restricted debt service fund to (1) pay interest to bond holders are reflected as cash outflows from operating
activities and (2) pay principal to bond holders are reflected as cash outflows from financing activities, and as cash inflows from investing activities. Amounts for prior periods have been
reclassified to conform with the 2002 presentation. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On May&nbsp;30, 2002, upon the recommendation of the Company's Audit Committee, the Board of Directors approved the dismissal of Arthur Andersen LLP ("Arthur
Andersen") as the Company's independent auditors and the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PricewaterhouseCoopers") to serve as the Company's independent auditors for the year ending
December&nbsp;31, 2002. The change in auditors is effective immediately. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Arthur
Andersen's reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2001and 2000 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer
of opinion, nor were such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In
connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended December&nbsp;31, 2001 and through May&nbsp;30, 2002 there were no disagreements with Arthur Andersen on any matter of
accounting principle or practice, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to Arthur Andersen's satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference to
the subject matter in connection with their report on the Company's consolidated financial statements for such years; and there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v)&nbsp;of
Regulation&nbsp;S-K. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company provided Arthur Andersen with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. Arthur Andersen provided the Company with a letter, dated May&nbsp;31, 2002, stating its agreement with
such statements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
the two fiscal years ended December&nbsp;31, 2001 and through May&nbsp;30, 2002 the Company did not consult PricewaterhouseCoopers with respect to the application of generally
accepted accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's consolidated financial statements, or any
other matters or reportable events as set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i)&nbsp;and (ii)&nbsp;of Regulation&nbsp;S-K. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, the Company has
evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures within 90&nbsp;days of the filing date of this annual report pursuant to
Rules&nbsp;13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and the principal

affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. </FONT></P>
