FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT (Lawton Oklahoma Correction and Detention Facility)
EXHIBIT 10.1
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT (this “First Amendment”) is made as of the
27th day of May, 2005, between CPT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership (“Landlord”) and THE GEO GROUP, INC., a Florida corporation, f/k/a Wackenhut
Corrections Corporation (“Tenant”).
PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS
A. Landlord and Tenant entered into that certain Master Agreement to Lease dated April 28,
1998 (the “Master Lease”), which sets forth certain agreements of the parties with respect to the
lease of various properties, including the property that is the subject of the Oklahoma Facility
Lease (as defined below).
B. Pursuant to the Master Lease, Landlord and Tenant entered into that certain Lease Agreement
dated January 15, 1999 (the “Oklahoma Facility Lease”) whereby Improvements (as defined in the
Master Lease) containing 1,500 inmate beds and commonly known as the Lawton, Oklahoma Correction
and Detention Facility and located on the land situated in Comanche County, Oklahoma, as more
particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto, together with the Fixtures and
Personal Property (as such terms are defined in the Master Lease) described in the Oklahoma
Facility Lease (the “Existing Leased Property”), were leased by Landlord to Tenant for an initial
term of ten (10) years.
C. Subsequent to entering into the Oklahoma Facility Lease, the Tenant exercised its right to
make a Capital Addition (as defined in the Master Lease) to the Existing Leased Property by
constructing, with Tenant’s own funds, an annexed building to the existing Improvements to
accommodate an additional 300 inmate beds together with certain Fixtures and Personal Property (as
such terms are defined in the Master Lease) located therein or thereon. The annexed building
together with the Fixtures therein or thereon are referred to collectively as the “Completed
Expansion.” A schedule of the Fixtures included as part of the Completed Expansion is set forth in
Exhibit B and a schedule of the Personal Property is set forth on Exhibit C, both
attached hereto and made a part hereof. The Existing Leased Property and the Completed Expansion
may be referred to herein collectively as the “Leased Property.”
D. Landlord and Tenant desire to enter into this First Amendment for the purpose of, among
other things, amending the Oklahoma Facility Lease to (i) provide for Landlord to purchase and
lease back to Tenant the Completed Expansion; (ii) provide for Landlord to advance up to a maximum
amount of $23,000,000.00 for the construction of a Capital Addition (as defined in Section 8.01 of
the Master Lease) to the Leased Property to accommodate an additional 604 inmate beds and certain
other Tenant Improvements to the real property which are necessary to accommodate the increased
capacity of the Leased Property (collectively, the “New Expansion”) and to contain certain other
Fixtures and Personal Property agreed to by Landlord and Tenant, all as contemplated in Section
8.09(b) of the Master Lease; and (iii) provide for modifications to the Base Rent, Additional Rent
and Fixed Term and for other modifications to the Oklahoma Facility Lease as more particularly set
forth hereinbelow.
TERMS
NOW, THEREFORE, for Ten Dollars ($10.00) and for the covenants and conditions of this
Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby conclusively acknowledged, Landlord and
Tenant agree as follows:
1. Recitals. The above recitals are true and correct and are agreed to by Landlord
and Tenant as if such recitals were fully set forth herein.
2. Undefined Terms. All undefined capitalized terms used herein shall have the same
meanings as defined in the Master Lease or the Oklahoma Facility Lease, as appropriate.
3. Purchase and Sale of Completed Expansion. Simultaneously with the execution and
delivery of this First Amendment by Landlord and Tenant (the “Effective Date”), Tenant shall
deliver to Landlord a xxxx of sale for the Completed Expansion along with an amended Memorandum of
Lease in recordable form and Landlord shall purchase the Completed Expansion for the sum of Three
Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($3,500,000.00) (the “Completed Expansion Purchase
Price”), less the actual out of pocket expenses (as approved by Landlord and Tenant in the closing
statement executed of even date herewith) of Landlord and Landlord’s lender incurred in connection
with such purchase and this First Amendment including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees incurred
by Landlord to purchase the Completed Expansion and amend the Oklahoma Facility Lease and the
Memorandum of Lease, perform title examinations, recording and filing fees, mortgage taxes and
mortgage certificate fees incurred to amend Landlord’s mortgages, deeds of trust and credit lines
affecting the Leased Property, title insurance costs and premiums to amend Landlord’s and
Landlord’s lender’s respective title insurance policies to increase the coverage amount to include
the Completed Expansion Purchase Price, Landlord’s and lender’s appraisers’ fees, consultants and
other professional fees, deed stamps or other transfer taxes to the extent Oklahoma law requires
such fees to be paid by the purchaser of property and any other customary costs and expenses
incurred by Landlord or lender in connection with the purchase of the Completed Expansion and lease
thereof to Tenant. The above payment constitutes full consideration for the sale and purchase of
the Completed Expansion, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.05 of the Master Lease,
from and after the Effective Date, the Completed Expansion shall be the sole and absolute property
of Landlord and Landlord will be entitled to all federal and state income tax benefits associated
with the Completed Expansion. Simultaneously with Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease
Amendment, Tenant shall execute and deliver any and all documents and certifications required by
First American Title Insurance Company to amend existing loan and owner’s title insurance policies
to include the Completed Expansion Purchase Price.
4. Lease of Completed Expansion. From and after the Effective Date , Landlord hereby
leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, in accordance with and subject to the
terms and provisions of the Oklahoma Facility Lease (as amended hereby) and the Master Lease, the
Completed Expansion. Tenant agrees that the Completed Expansion is hereby leased by Landlord to
Tenant in its presently existing “as is, where is” condition “with all faults” (regardless of
whether any defects are known or unknown and regardless of whether any defects are latent or
patent) and that Landlord does not and shall not make any warranty or
H-2
representation, expressed or implied, with respect thereto, including any warranty of fitness
for a specific purpose.
5. Amendment to Definitions of Fixtures, Personal Property and Leased Property; Revised
Exhibit D. From and after the Effective Date, the descriptions of the Fixtures and Personal
Property set forth in Exhibit B and Exhibit C, respectively, of the Oklahoma
Facility Lease shall be deemed amended and supplemented to include the additional Fixtures and
Personal Property listed on Exhibit B and Exhibit C, respectively, attached to this
First Amendment and the definition of Leased Property in the Oklahoma Facility Lease shall be
deemed amended and supplemented to include the Completed Expansion. From and after the date
hereof, Exhibit D of the Oklahoma Facility Lease is deleted in its entirety and Exhibit
D attached to this First Amendment shall be substituted in place thereof.
6. Base Rent and Additional Rent Adjustment for Completed Expansion. In addition to
the Base Rent and Additional Rent due under the Oklahoma Facility Lease for the Existing Leased
Property, Tenant shall pay to Landlord during the Fixed Term annual Base Rent for the Completed
Expansion from and after the Effective Date at the rate of nine and one-half percent (9.5%) of the
Completed Expansion Purchase Price in advance on the first day of each month in accordance with the
Completed Expansion Base Rent Schedule attached hereto as
Exhibit E-1. Monthly Base Rent for the Completed Expansion from the Effective Date through the last day of May, 2005 shall be prorated and paid by Tenant concurrently herewith. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.02(c) of the Master Lease to the contrary, the first Lease Year with respect to the Completed Expansion shall commence on the first day of June, 2005 and run for the successive twelve month period thereafter until the partial year adjustment described in Section 10 of this First Amendment whereupon the Lease Years for the Existing Leased Property, the Completed Expansion and the New Expansion shall all be adjusted to thereafter run coterminously. From and after the first day of June, 2006, and on the first day of the first month of each Lease Year for the Completed Expansion thereafter, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Additional Rent (as defined in the Master Lease) under Section 2.02 of the Master Lease for the Completed Expansion based upon the Total Rent applicable to the Completed Expansion and calculated pursuant to Section 2.02(b) of the Master Lease but with respect to the Additional Rent due for the Completed Expansion calculated as if the second Lease Year for the Completed Expansion were the fourth Lease Year of the Fixed Term (i.e. the formula for Additional Rent set forth in Section 2.02(a) of the Master Lease shall not be applicable to the Completed Expansion).
Exhibit E-1. Monthly Base Rent for the Completed Expansion from the Effective Date through the last day of May, 2005 shall be prorated and paid by Tenant concurrently herewith. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.02(c) of the Master Lease to the contrary, the first Lease Year with respect to the Completed Expansion shall commence on the first day of June, 2005 and run for the successive twelve month period thereafter until the partial year adjustment described in Section 10 of this First Amendment whereupon the Lease Years for the Existing Leased Property, the Completed Expansion and the New Expansion shall all be adjusted to thereafter run coterminously. From and after the first day of June, 2006, and on the first day of the first month of each Lease Year for the Completed Expansion thereafter, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Additional Rent (as defined in the Master Lease) under Section 2.02 of the Master Lease for the Completed Expansion based upon the Total Rent applicable to the Completed Expansion and calculated pursuant to Section 2.02(b) of the Master Lease but with respect to the Additional Rent due for the Completed Expansion calculated as if the second Lease Year for the Completed Expansion were the fourth Lease Year of the Fixed Term (i.e. the formula for Additional Rent set forth in Section 2.02(a) of the Master Lease shall not be applicable to the Completed Expansion).
7. Construction and Financing of Tenant Improvements.
(a) Tenant shall design and construct the New Expansion in accordance with and subject to the
terms of Section 8.09 of the Master Lease, Exhibit F of this First Amendment and all
applicable Legal Requirements. Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms and provisions of
Exhibit F to this First Amendment, Landlord agrees to advance up to a maximum of
$23,000,000.00 (the “Maximum Contribution Amount”) toward the costs incurred by Tenant in
connection with the design, permitting and construction of the New Expansion, which Maximum
Contribution Amount shall include, without limitation, all Construction Period Interest (as
hereinafter defined) accrued on the amounts disbursed from time to time by Landlord. Tenant shall
be solely responsible for any and all costs in excess of the Maximum
H-3
Contribution Amount which are incurred in connection with the design, permitting and
completion of construction of the New Expansion. Interest shall accrue on the amount from time to
time disbursed by Landlord under this First Amendment and Exhibit F as part of the Maximum
Contribution Amount at the rate of 8% per annum or 200 basis points over Landlord’s borrowing rate,
whichever is greater (“Construction Period Interest”) from the date disbursed until the New
Expansion Rent Commencement Date occurs. Any and all such Construction Period Interest shall be
included in the calculation of the total amount determined hereunder as the Maximum Contribution
Amount.
(b) Landlord shall have no obligation to advance more than the Maximum Contribution Amount
towards any costs to design and construct the New Expansion and perform the Expansion Work (as
defined in Exhibit F). Landlord may, without any obligation to do so, advance more than
$23,000,000 towards the costs to design and construct the New Expansion and perform the Expansion
Work and, if Landlord so elects, the Maximum Contribution Amount shall be increased to equal the
total amount expended or advanced by Landlord in connection with the design and construction of the
New Expansion plus Construction Period Interest as provided in paragraph (a) above. Any and all
costs paid by Tenant in excess of the Maximum Contribution Amount in connection with the New
Expansion shall not entitle Tenant to any credits or offsets against Base Rent, Additional Rent or
any other amounts payable to Landlord under the Oklahoma Facility Lease or the Master Lease, except
as expressly set forth below with respect to Construction Period Interest. If Tenant has not
utilized the entire Maximum Contribution Amount to be made available by Landlord pursuant to
Exhibit F to this First Amendment, by the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date (as defined
in Section 9), then the Maximum Contribution Amount shall be decreased to equal the sum actually
advanced by Landlord as of the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date plus Construction Period
Interest financed by Landlord as provided in paragraph (a) above, and Landlord shall have no
further obligation to advance any unexpended balance of the Maximum Contribution Amount thereafter
unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by Landlord and Tenant.
8. Lease of New Expansion. From and after the earlier date (the “New Expansion
Commencement Date”) to occur of (i) the Substantial Completion of the Expansion Work (as defined in
Exhibit F), or (ii) the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date (as defined in Section 9),
Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, in accordance with and
subject to the terms and provisions of the Oklahoma Facility Lease (as amended hereby) and the
Master Lease, the New Expansion and the Fixtures therein or thereon. Tenant agrees that the New
Expansion is leased by Landlord to Tenant in its then constructed, then existing “as is, where is”
condition “with all faults” (regardless of whether any defects are known or unknown and regardless
of whether any defects are latent or patent) and that Landlord does not and shall not make any
warranty or representation, express or implied, with respect thereto, including any warranty of
fitness for a specific purpose. From and after the New Expansion Commencement Date, the term
Leased Property shall be deemed amended and supplemented to include the Leased Property and the New
Expansion. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.05 of the Master Lease, the New Expansion
and the Fixtures therein or thereon shall at all times be the sole and absolute property of
Landlord.
9. Base Rent and Additional Rent Adjustment for New Expansion. Effective as of the
earlier date to occur of: (i) sixty (60) days following the date the first inmate is accepted
H-4
for housing in the New Expansion (“New Expansion Facility Opening Date”) or (ii) subject to
the provisions of Section 11 of this First Amendment, December 4, 2006 (the “Outside Date” and the
earlier of the dates in (i) and (ii) above are hereinafter referred to as the “New Expansion Rent
Commencement Date”), Tenant shall pay annual Base Rent for the New Expansion at the rate of nine
and one-half percent (9.5%) of the Maximum Contribution Amount as the Maximum Contribution Amount
may be decreased or, in Landlord’s sole discretion, increased pursuant to Section 7 of this First
Amendment. Base Rent for the New Expansion shall be payable in advance by Tenant in consecutive
monthly installments from the New Expansion Base Rent Commencement Date through and including the
expiration of the Fixed Term (as extended pursuant to Section 12 of this First Amendment).
Promptly following the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date, Landlord and Tenant agree to promptly
execute and deliver to Landlord a Confirmation Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
G which will (a) confirm the date of the Substantial Completion of the Expansion Work, the New
Expansion Commencement Date, the New Expansion Rent Commencement, and the new Expiration Date; (b)
confirm the final Maximum Contribution Amount after any adjustments thereto pursuant to Section 7
of this First Amendment; (c) contain an Exhibit E-2 to become a part of the Oklahoma
Facility Lease and establish the Base Rent Schedule due for the New Expansion; and (d) contain a
completed Exhibit B with a schedule of New Expansion Fixtures, and a completed Exhibit
C containing a Schedule of New Expansion Personal Property, if any, which exhibits shall become
a part of and supplement the respective Exhibit B and Exhibit C of the Oklahoma
Facility Lease. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.02(b) of the Master Lease to the
contrary, the first Lease Year with respect to the New Expansion shall commence on the first day of
the first month following the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date (except if the New Expansion
Rent Commencement Date is the first day of the calendar month, in which case the first Lease Year
shall commence on the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date) and run for the successive twelve month
period thereafter and, in accordance with Section 10 of this First Amendment, the Lease Years with
respect to the Existing Leased Property and the Completed Expansion shall thereupon be adjusted to
run coterminously with the Lease Years for the New Expansion. From and after the first day of the
second Lease Year for the New Expansion and on the first day of each Lease Year for the New
Expansion thereafter, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Additional Rent under Section 2.02 of the Master
Lease for the New Expansion based upon the Total Rent applicable to the New Expansion and
calculated pursuant to Section 2.02(b) of the Master Lease as if the second Lease Year for the New
Expansion were the fourth Lease Year of the Fixed Term (i.e. the formula for Additional Rent set
forth in Section 2.02(a) of the Master Lease shall not be applicable to the New Expansion).
10. Adjustment to Additional Rent and Lease Year. From and after the occurrence of
the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date, the Lease Years for the Completed Expansion and the
Existing Leased Property will be made coterminous with the Lease Years for the New Expansion. In
order to accomplish this, Additional Rent (as calculated in accordance with Section 2.02(b) of the
Master Lease) for the Completed Expansion and Existing Leased Property will be adjusted on a
one-time, partial year basis to reflect any increase in the Consumer Price Index as defined in
Section 2.02(d) of the Master Lease, from the date of the most recent Additional Rent determination
through the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date. For example, assuming the Completed Expansion is
sold to Landlord on May 15, 2005, Base Rent for the Completed Expansion will be subject to its
first Additional Rent adjustment on June 1, 2006. The Existing Leased Property will have received
its most recent Additional Rent
H-5
adjustment on February 1, 2006. Assuming the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date begins
August 1, 2006, the Base Rent for the Completed Expansion and the Existing Leased Property will
have an additional, one-time, partial year Additional Rent adjustment on August 1, 2006 based on
increases to the Consumer Price Index from June 1, 2006 through August 1, 2006 and from February 1,
2006 through August 1, 2006, respectively. In the above example, August 1 would be the first day
of each Lease Year thereafter and would be the date on which Additional Rent (as calculated in
accordance with Section 2.02(b) of the Master Lease) for the entire aggregate Base Rent payable
under the Oklahoma Facility Lease would be determined beginning on August 1, 2007 through the Fixed
Term expiration on July 31, 2016.
11. Extension of Outside Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein or in Exhibit F, in the event the New Expansion Facility Opening Date has not
occurred by October 4, 2006, due solely to either Force Majeure or Landlord Delay (as such terms
are defined in Exhibit F), then Tenant may elect to extend the Outside Date one day for
each day of actual delay in the New Expansion Facility Opening Date caused solely by such Force
Majeure or Landlord Delay, provided that if the delay is due to Force Majeure, the Outside Date may
only be extended up to a maximum extended period of sixty (60) additional days. Tenant shall first
provide Landlord with written notice of the exercise by Tenant of its right to extend the Outside
Date pursuant to this Section 11, which such notice must be furnished to Landlord at least fifteen
(15) business days prior to the originally scheduled Outside Date. Any delay caused solely by a
Landlord Delay shall not be included in the above 60-day limitation on the Outside Date extension.
12. Amendment of Term. Effective as of the New Expansion Rent Commencement Date, the
Fixed Term set forth in Section 1.02 of the Oklahoma Facility Lease shall be extended for an
additional period of one hundred twenty (120) months from the first day of the calendar month (the
“Additional Term Trigger Date”) immediately following the month in which the New Expansion Rent
Commencement Date occurs and the term “Expiration Date” shall thereafter mean midnight on the last
day of the one hundred twentieth (120th) month following the Additional Term Trigger Date. Tenant
shall continue to have all of its renewal rights set forth in Section 1.02 of the Oklahoma Facility
Lease from and after the Expiration Date set forth in this Section 12.
13. Insurance Certificates. Simultaneously with Tenant’s execution and delivery of
this First Amendment, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord insurance certificates or policies, or
endorsements to existing insurance policies, evidencing that all coverages required under Article
IV of the Master Lease are in effect with respect to the Leased Property, including without
limitation, the Completed Expansion.
14. State of Oklahoma Purchase Option; Tenant Indemnification. Landlord and Tenant
hereby acknowledge and agree that the State of Oklahoma (the “State”) has an option to purchase the
Leased Property at the beginning of each fiscal year at a predetermined price (the “State of
Oklahoma Purchase Option”), which price has been negotiated and specified in Section 2.3 of the
facility operating agreement dated July 1, 2003 by and between Tenant and the State of Oklahoma
(the “Facility Operating Agreement”), the terms of which Section 2.3 are stated in Exhibit
H attached hereto. Tenant shall not amend, modify, cancel, delete or terminate the provisions
for determining the purchase price of the State of Oklahoma Purchase Price in
H-6
Section 2.3 of the Facility Operating Agreement without Landlord’s prior written consent in
Landlord’s sole and unfettered discretion.
15. Estoppel. Tenant hereby acknowledges that, to its knowledge, (i) Landlord has no
undischarged obligations under the Lease to perform any work or improvements to the Leased
Property, or, to Tenant’s actual knowledge, otherwise; (ii) there are no offsets or defenses that
Tenant has against the full enforcement of the Oklahoma Facility Lease or the Master Lease by
Landlord; (iii) neither Landlord nor Tenant is in any respect in default under the Oklahoma
Facility Lease, the Master Lease or the Facility Operating Agreement; and (iv) Tenant has not
assigned, transferred or hypothecated the Oklahoma Facility Lease or the Master Lease or any
interest therein or in the Completed Expansion.
