To our stockholders:

     We previously sent you a proxy statement dated July 31, 2000 relating to a
special meeting of stockholders of Prison Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland
corporation ("Prison Realty"), to be held at 10:00 a.m., local time, on Tuesday,
September 12, 2000, at the Union Station Hotel, 1001 Broadway, Nashville,
Tennessee. As described in the proxy statement, the special meeting was called
to allow Prison Realty stockholders to consider and vote upon:

     - the adoption of certain amendments to Prison Realty's charter to permit a
       restructuring of Prison Realty, including, among other things, Prison
       Realty's election not to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or
       REIT, for federal income tax purposes commencing with its 2000 taxable
       year;

     - the adoption of the merger of Corrections Corporation of America with and
       into a wholly owned subsidiary of Prison Realty and certain related
       transactions; and

     - such other business as may properly come before the special meeting and
       any adjournments or postponements thereof.

     As a result of developments since the time of the mailing of the proxy
statement, we are providing you with the following supplement to the proxy
statement, which includes additional information regarding the restructuring and
the charter amendments and the merger and related transactions.

     THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF PRISON REALTY REAFFIRMS ITS VIEW THAT THE CHARTER
AMENDMENTS AND THE MERGER AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS ARE FAIR TO AND IN THE BEST
INTERESTS OF PRISON REALTY AND ITS STOCKHOLDERS AND RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR
THE ADOPTION OF THE CHARTER AMENDMENTS AND FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE MERGER AND
RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

     Your vote is important, and we urge you to give the proxy statement and
this supplement your immediate attention. The proposal to approve the charter
amendments requires the approval of two-thirds of the holders of Prison Realty
common stock. The restructuring, including the merger and related transactions,
cannot be completed without the approval and implementation of the charter
amendments. You have already received a proxy card on which you can vote, and
you may have already returned the card. HOWEVER, WE HAVE ENCLOSED AN ADDITIONAL
PROXY CARD (AND A RETURN ENVELOPE) FOR YOUR USE, IN CASE YOU HAVE MISPLACED THE
PROXY PREVIOUSLY SENT OR YOU WISH TO CHANGE YOUR VOTE. IF YOU HAVE ALREADY VOTED
YOUR PROXY AND YOU DO NOT WISH TO CHANGE YOUR VOTE, YOU DO NOT NEED TO RETURN
THIS ADDITIONAL PROXY CARD. If you have any questions concerning the procedures
required to vote your shares or how to change your vote if you have already
voted, please contact D.F. King & Co. at (800) 290-6433.

     On behalf of the board of directors, we thank you for your support and urge
you to vote FOR the charter amendments and the merger and related transactions.

                                       Sincerely,

                     TO PROXY STATEMENT DATED JULY 31, 2000

     This is a supplement to Prison Realty's proxy statement dated July 31,
2000. This supplement contains additional information regarding Prison Realty
and the matters described in the proxy statement that may be important to you.
The terms used in this supplement shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the

STOCKHOLDER LITIGATION

     On August 23, 2000, Prison Realty entered into a memorandum of
understanding regarding the settlement of all outstanding stockholder litigation
against Prison Realty and certain of its existing and former directors and
executive officers. The memorandum of understanding, which is subject to the
execution of a definitive stipulation of settlement by the parties, subsequent
court approval and other customary conditions, provides for the "global"
settlement of a series of purported class action and derivative lawsuits brought
against Prison Realty by current and former stockholders of Prison Realty and
its predecessors, the old Corrections Corporation of America and CCA Prison
Realty Trust. These lawsuits alleged claims relating to, among other things,
agreements entered into by Prison Realty and its primary tenant, Corrections
Corporation of America, or CCA, in May of 1999 to increase payments made by
Prison Realty to CCA under the terms of certain agreements, as well as
previously announced transactions relating to the restructuring of Prison Realty
and CCA led by Fortress/Blackstone and Pacific Life. Specifically, the
memorandum of understanding relates to the following previously disclosed
actions:

     - Bernstein v. Prison Realty Trust, et. al. (including Hardee v. Prison
       Realty Trust, et. al. and Holle v. Prison Realty Trust, et. al., which
       were consolidated with Bernstein);

     - Neiger v. Doctor Crants, et. al. (including Anderson v. Doctor Crants,
       et. al. and Brody v. Prison Realty Trust, Inc., et. al., which were
       consolidated with Neiger);

     - Buchanan and Unger v. Prison Realty Trust, Inc. et. al.;

     - In re Old CCA Securities Litigation;

     - In re Prison Realty Securities Litigation;

     - Milkovits v. Prison Realty Trust, et. al.;

     - Wanstrath v. Crants, et. al.; and

     - Dasburg, S.A. v. Corrections Corporation of America, et. al.

     The memorandum of understanding provides that Prison Realty will pay or
issue the plaintiffs:

     -  approximately $48 million in cash payable solely from the proceeds under
        Prison Realty's and CCA's insurance policies; and

     -  approximately $72.4 million in shares of common stock of Prison Realty
        (or 16,550,000 shares at an agreed value of $4.375 per share).

     The shares of common stock to be issued by Prison Realty in accordance with
the agreement will be subject to a stock price guarantee of $4.375 per share,
which will require Prison Realty to pay or issue, at its option, cash or
additional shares of common stock to the plaintiffs if the trading price of
Prison Realty common stock does not reach $4.375 per share for a specified
number of trading days during the period from the completion of the settlement
through August 31, 2001. In addition, shares issued in the settlement are
subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments if Prison Realty
<PAGE>   4

undertakes certain transactions (generally, raising equity capital in excess of
$110.0 million at less than the stock price guarantee) during the period from
August 31, 2001 through December 31, 2001.

     In addition to the payments of amounts specified above, Prison Realty and
the plaintiffs have agreed to certain other matters in connection with the
memorandum of understanding, including:

     - restrictions on the form and amount of payments that may be made by
       Prison Realty to certain affiliates of Prison Realty and CCA and certain
       third parties in connection with the proposed restructuring of the
       companies;

     - restrictions on Prison Realty's ability to reprice stock options
       previously issued to directors or executive officers of Prison Realty for
       a period of 24 months; and

     - the requirement that each committee of Prison Realty's board of directors
       consist of a majority of directors which were not directors of Prison
       Realty or its affiliates as of December 1, 1999.

RESTRUCTURING OF MANAGEMENT AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS

APPOINTMENT OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

     On Friday, August 4, 2000, the board of directors of Prison Realty named
John D. Ferguson as Prison Realty's chief executive officer and president.
Prison Realty's board of directors also elected Mr. Ferguson to the board of
directors of Prison Realty and to serve as its vice-chairman. On August 4, 2000,
the board of directors of CCA also named Mr. Ferguson as the chief executive
officer and president of CCA and elected him to its board of directors. Mr.
Ferguson replaced Thomas W. Beasley as the interim chief executive officer of
Prison Realty and CCA. Mr. Beasley was named as interim chief executive officer
of the companies after the termination of Doctor R. Crants on July 28, 2000. Mr.
Ferguson also replaced J. Michael Quinlan as the president of the companies. Mr.
Quinlan will continue to serve as the chief operating officer of CCA, as well as
the executive vice president of each of the companies. Prison Realty now intends
to commence the search for a new chief financial officer of Prison Realty. On
Monday, August 28, 2000, Mr. Ferguson was also appointed to serve as the interim
chief financial officer of Prison Realty, replacing Vida H. Carroll, until a
permanent chief financial officer is appointed.

     In connection with Mr. Ferguson's appointment as the chief executive
officer and president of Prison Realty, Prison Realty entered into an employment
agreement with Mr. Ferguson, dated August 4, 2000. The initial term of the
employment agreement expires on December 31, 2002, and is subject to a series of
one year renewals. Mr. Ferguson is entitled to receive an annual salary and cash
bonus under the terms of the employment agreement, as well as customary
benefits, including life and health insurance. In addition, under the terms of
the employment agreement, Prison Realty has issued Mr. Ferguson the option to
purchase an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Prison Realty's common stock,
consisting of: (i) options to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $2.38 per share that vested on the date of the employment
agreement; (ii) options to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $2.38 per share that will vest on the first anniversary of the
date of the employment agreement; (iii) options to purchase 500,000 shares of
common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share that will vest on the
second anniversary of the date of the employment agreement; and (iv) options to
purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.50 per share
that will vest on the third anniversary of the date of the employment agreement.
Under the terms of the employment agreement and related option agreement,
certain of these options may be forfeited by Mr. Ferguson upon the termination
of his employment with Prison Realty.

APPOINTMENT OF CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     On Tuesday, August 8, 2000, William F. Andrews was elected to serve as a
member of the board of directors of Prison Realty and to serve as its chairman.
Mr. Andrews replaced Thomas W. Beasley as the chairman of the board of directors
of Prison Realty. It is expected that Mr. Beasley will continue to serve as a
director of Prison Realty.

RELATIONSHIP WITH THE SERVICE COMPANIES

PMSI

     PMSI, through a wholly owned subsidiary, has agreed to purchase the shares
of Class A voting common stock held by Privatized Management Services Investors,
LLC, the holder of approximately 85% of the voting common stock of PMSI, for
$8.0 million cash. In addition, PMSI and its subsidiary have agreed to pay
Privatized Management Services Investors, LLC and its chief manager $150,000 as
compensation for expenses incurred in the negotiation of the stock purchase and
$125,000 as consideration for the chief manager's agreement not to engage in a
business competitive to PMSI or Prison Realty for a period of one year following
the purchase of the stock from Privatized Management Services Investors, LLC.
The purchase of the shares is expected to be completed on or before September
12, 2000. Currently, PMSI has no indebtedness and it is anticipated that PMSI,
through its wholly owned subsidiary, will borrow funds to facilitate the
acquisition.

     As the result of the agreement regarding the purchase of the shares of PMSI
Class A voting common stock from Privatized Management Services Investors, LLC,
it is expected that PMSI will merge with and into Prison Realty, or a wholly
owned subsidiary of Prison Realty, following the completion of the stock
purchase and at the time of Prison Realty's proposed merger with CCA. In such a
merger, Prison Realty would issue shares of its common stock to the wardens of
the correctional and detention facilities operated by PMSI who are shareholders
of PMSI. It is expected that the wardens would receive shares of Prison Realty
common stock valued at an aggregate of $550,000 in the merger in exchange for
shares of PMSI common stock held by such wardens. Shares of Prison Realty's
common stock owned by the wardens would be subject to vesting and forfeiture
provisions under a restricted stock plan. Shares of PMSI common stock held by
Prison Realty and shares held by the subsidiary of PMSI as the result of the
stock purchase would be canceled in the merger. Like Prison Realty's merger with
CCA, the exchange ratio for the PMSI merger would depend on a formula using the
average closing price of one share of Prison Realty common stock on the NYSE for
the five trading days ending two days prior to the completion of the merger.
Assuming a stock price of $3.50 per share, the wardens would receive 157,142
shares of Prison Realty common stock in the merger. Assuming a stock price of
$2.00 per share, the wardens would receive 275,000 shares of Prison Realty
common stock in the merger.

JJFMSI

     On September 1, 2000, JJFMSI, through a wholly owned subsidiary, purchased
the shares of Class A voting common stock held by Correctional Services
Investors, LLC, the holder of approximately 85% of the voting common stock of
JJFMSI, for $4.8 million cash. In addition, JJFMSI paid Correctional Services
Investors, LLC $250,000 as compensation for expenses incurred in the negotiation
of the stock purchase.

     As the result of the agreement regarding the purchase of the shares of
JJFMSI Class A voting common stock from Correctional Services Investors, LLC, it
is expected that JJFMSI will merge with and into Prison Realty, or a wholly
owned subsidiary of Prison Realty, at the time of Prison Realty's proposed
merger with CCA. In such a merger, Prison Realty would issue shares of its
common stock to the wardens of the correctional and detention facilities
operated by JJFMSI who are shareholders of JJFMSI. It is expected that the
wardens would receive shares of Prison Realty common stock valued at an
aggregate of $687,500 in the merger in exchange for shares of JJFMSI common
stock held by such wardens. Shares of Prison Realty's common stock owned by the
wardens would be subject to vesting and forfeiture provisions under a restricted
stock plan. Shares of JJFMSI

                                        4
<PAGE>   7

common stock held by Prison Realty and shares held by the subsidiary of JJFMSI
as the result of the stock purchase would be canceled in the merger. Like Prison
Realty's merger with CCA, the exchange ratio for the JJFMSI merger would depend
on a formula using the average closing price of one share of Prison Realty
common stock on the NYSE for the five trading days ending two days prior to the
completion of the merger. Assuming a stock price of $3.50 per share, the wardens
would receive 196,428 shares of Prison Realty common stock in the merger.
Assuming a stock price of $2.00 per share, the wardens would receive 343,750
shares of Prison Realty common stock in the merger.

IMPACT OF SERVICE COMPANY TRANSACTIONS ON STOCKHOLDER LITIGATION

     In the memorandum of understanding regarding the settlement of the
stockholder litigation, there are restrictions on the form and amount of
payments that may be made to affiliates of Prison Realty and CCA and third
parties in connection with the proposed restructuring. It is the view of Prison
Realty and its counsel that the purchase of the Class A voting stock of PMSI and
JJFMSI by a subsidiary of each company does not violate the terms of the
memorandum of understanding. Prison Realty and its counsel sought the
concurrence of counsel for the plaintiffs with that view. Counsel for the
plaintiffs indicated that they did not concur with that view. Therefore, there
exists the risk that Prison Realty will be unable to reach a stipulation of
settlement with the plaintiffs and their counsel with respect to the settlement
of the stockholder litigation on the terms previously described herein.

HSR CLEARANCE

     The Federal Trade Commission has notified Prison Realty and CCA that it has
granted early termination of the required waiting period under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 with respect to the merger
of Prison Realty and CCA and that it has determined not to review the merger. It
is a condition to each of Prison Realty's and CCA's obligations under the merger
agreement that the waiting period under the HSR Act have expired or been
terminated.

QUALIFICATION OF PRISON REALTY AS A REIT FOR 1999

     On August 31, 2000, the Prison Realty board of directors declared a
dividend of $145.0 million, payable on Friday, September 22, 2000, to Prison
Realty's common stockholders of record as of Thursday, September 14, 2000, in
connection with Prison Realty's election to be taxed and qualify as a real
estate investment trust, or REIT, with respect to its 1999 taxable year. The
dividend will be payable in an aggregate of approximately 5,928,046 shares of a
newly designated series of Prison Realty's preferred stock. As a result of the
board's declaration, Prison Realty's common stockholders will be entitled to
receive 5 shares of Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series
B Preferred Stock") for every 100 shares of common stock held by them on the
record date. The 1999 REIT dividend is intended to satisfy Prison Realty's
remaining distribution requirements in connection with its election to be taxed
and qualify as a REIT with respect to its 1999 taxable year.

     The Series B Preferred Stock to be issued as the 1999 REIT dividend will
provide for dividends payable in additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock
at a rate of 12% per year for the first three years following the issuance of
the shares and cash dividends at a rate of 12% per year thereafter, payable for
the period from issuance through December 31, 2000 and quarterly thereafter, in
arrears. Shares of the Series B Preferred Stock will be callable by Prison
Realty, at a price per share equal to the stated value of $24.46, plus any
accrued dividends, at any time after six months following the later of (i)
September 22, 2003 or (ii) the 91st day following the redemption of Prison
Realty's $100.0 million 12% senior notes, due 2006. The shares of Series B
Preferred Stock will be convertible into shares of Prison Realty's common stock
during two separate conversion periods: (i) from October 2, 2000 to October 13,
2000; and (ii) from December 7, 2000 to December 20, 2000, at a

                                        5
<PAGE>   8

conversion price based on the average closing price of Prison Realty's common
stock on the NYSE during the 10 trading days prior to the first day of the
applicable conversion period.

     Prison Realty has applied to list the shares of Series B Preferred Stock,
and the shares of the Company's common stock into which the Series B Preferred
Stock is convertible, on the NYSE, pending official notice of issuance.

     The dividend is necessary in order for Prison Realty to maintain its status
as a REIT for its 1999 taxable year, as required by Prison Realty's existing
charter. Companies electing REIT status are required, under the Internal Revenue
Code, to distribute 95% of their taxable income and to distribute all earnings
and profits inherited from a taxable subchapter C corporation as dividends.
Prison Realty has proposed a comprehensive restructuring, pursuant to which
Prison Realty will, pending stockholder approval, among other things, amend its
charter to permit it to operate so as to be taxed as a subchapter C corporation
rather than as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, commencing with its 2000
taxable year.

     The distribution of the Series B Preferred Stock will have certain tax
consequences for Prison Realty's common stockholders. The distribution will
generally be treated as a dividend to the extent that it is deemed paid out of
Prison Realty's current and accumulated earnings and profits. Accordingly,
Prison Realty's common stockholders generally will be required to include the
fair market value of the Series B Preferred Stock as ordinary income on their
tax returns. To the extent the fair market value of the Series B Preferred Stock
exceeds the amount of Prison Realty's current and accumulated earnings and
profits, the distribution will be treated as a return of capital, which will
reduce each stockholder's basis in its shares of Prison Realty's common stock
(but not below zero). Thereafter, the distribution will be treated as capital
gain from the sale or exchange of Prison Realty's common stock, assuming the
stock is held as a capital asset at the time of the distribution. Future
dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock, whether in stock or cash, will
generally be treated as dividends to the extent of Prison Realty's current and
accumulated earnings and profits as well.

     As previously described, it is anticipated that Prison Realty will acquire
the remaining 5% ownership interests in PMSI and JJFMSI as the result of a
merger of the companies. Since Prison Realty has previously been entitled to 95%
of the economic interest in the two companies through the payment of dividends,
the acquisition of the remaining 5% ownership interests in the companies has no
material impact to the pro forma net loss available to common shareholders or
the pro forma net loss per common share as previously disclosed in the proxy
statement for the three months ended March 31, 2000 or for the year ended
December 31, 1999.
