ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT
ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT, dated as of December 27, 2002, made by
CCA Properties of America, LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company
("Properties I"), CCA Properties of Texas, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
("Properties II"), CCA Properties of Arizona, LLC, a Tennessee limited liability
company ("Properties III") and CCA Properties of Tennessee, LLC, a Tennessee
limited liability company ("Properties IV" and, collectively with Properties I,
Properties II and Properties III, the "Additional Grantors"), in favor of Xxxxxx
Commercial Paper Inc., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the
"Administrative Agent") for (i) the banks and other financial institutions and
entities (the "Lenders") parties to the Credit Agreement referred to below, and
(ii) the other Secured Parties (as defined in the Guarantee and Security
Agreement (as hereinafter defined)). All capitalized terms not defined herein
shall have the meaning ascribed to them in such Credit Agreement.
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, Corrections Corporation of America (the "Borrower"),
the Lenders, Xxxxxx Brothers Inc., as advisor, lead arranger and book manager,
and, among others, the Administrative Agent have entered into a Third Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 3, 2002 (as amended,
supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit
Agreement");
WHEREAS, in connection with the Credit Agreement, the Borrower
and certain of its Affiliates (other than the Additional Grantors) have entered
into the Second Amended and Restated Security Agreement (With Guarantee), dated
as of May 3, 2002 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to
time, the "Guarantee and Security Agreement") in favor of the Administrative
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties;
WHEREAS, the Credit Agreement requires each Additional Grantor
to become a party to the Guarantee and Security Agreement; and
WHEREAS, each Additional Grantor has agreed to execute and
deliver this Assumption Agreement in order to become a party to the Guarantee
and Security Agreement;
WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders consent
to and agree to amend the Credit Agreement to provide, among other things, for
the transfers of the Borrower's Real Estate to the Additional Grantors, as more
specifically set forth therein, (the "First Amendment");
WHEREAS, pursuant to the First Amendment, the Lenders have
required that the Additional Grantors assume the obligations and liabilities of
the Borrower as grantor or mortgagor under each of the Mortgages;
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:
1. Guarantee and Security Agreement. By executing and
delivering this Assumption Agreement, each Additional Grantor, as provided in
Section 8.14 of the Guarantee
and Security Agreement, hereby becomes a party to the Guarantee and Security
Agreement as a Grantor thereunder with the same force and effect as if
originally named therein as a Grantor and, without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, hereby expressly assumes all obligations and liabilities of a
Grantor thereunder. The information set forth in Schedule A hereto is hereby
added to the information set forth in Schedules to the Guarantee and Security
Agreement, as more specifically set forth therein. Each Additional Grantor
hereby represents and warrants that each of the representations and warranties
contained in Section 4 of the Guarantee and Security Agreement is true and
correct on and as the date hereof (after giving effect to this Assumption
Agreement) as if made on and as of such date.
2. Assumption of Certain Mortgage Liabilities.
Reference is made to the Mortgages:
(a) Properties I hereby assumes all of the obligations
and liabilities, as well as all of the representations, warranties and
covenants, of the Grantor or Mortgagor (each as defined in the
respective Mortgages), as the case may be, arising under or with
respect to each Mortgage set forth on Part I of Schedule B hereto.
(b) Properties II hereby assumes all of the obligations
and liabilities, as well as all of the representations, warranties and
covenants, of the Grantor or Mortgagor (each as defined in the
respective Mortgages), as the case may be, arising under or with
respect to each Mortgage set forth on Part II of Schedule B hereto.
(c) Properties III hereby assumes all of the obligations
and liabilities, as well as all of the representations, warranties and
covenants, of the Grantor or Mortgagor (each as defined in the
respective Mortgages), as the case may be, arising under or with
respect to each Mortgage set forth on Part III of Schedule B hereto.
(d) Properties IV hereby assumes all of the obligations
and liabilities, as well as all of the representations, warranties and
covenants, of the Grantor or Mortgagor (each as defined in the
respective Mortgages), as the case may be, arising under or with
respect to each Mortgage set forth on Part IV of Schedule B hereto.
(e) Each Additional Grantor specifically understands that
each such Mortgage shall secure all obligations and liabilities arising
under this Assumption Agreement and the Guarantee and Security
Agreement as incorporated by reference hereby. Each Additional Grantor
agrees that "Event of Default," as used in the Mortgages, shall
include, without limitation, any default arising under this Agreement
or in the Guarantee and Security Agreement, provided that any
requirement for the giving of notice, the lapse of time, or both, has
been satisfied.
3. Reliance.
Each Additional Grantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that
the Real Property Transfers contemplated in the First Amendment and Consent to
the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 27, 2002
(the "First Amendment") are being
consummated at the request of the Borrower and the Properties Group Parties, and
in consenting and agreeing to the First Amendment, the Lenders have relied upon
(i) each Properties Group Party becoming a Guarantor and a Grantor under the
Guarantee and Security Agreement and a Grantor or Mortgagor under any other
applicable Security Documents, including, without limitation, the Mortgages,
(ii) the continuing validity, enforceability and first-priority of the security
interest created by the existing Mortgages in the Real Estate subject thereto
notwithstanding the transfer of fee ownership of any such Real Estate to any
Property Group Party, (iii) the Real Property Transfers being consummated
subject to and subordinate to the Mortgages and (iv) the non-release of the
Borrower from any of its obligations as Grantor or Mortgagor under the Security
Documents, including without limitation, the Mortgages.
4. GOVERNING LAW. THIS ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK.
