                           (l) With respect to each Real Property owned by the

                  provided, however, a Lender's failure to notify the
                  Administrative Agent of its objection to the admittance of
                  such New Property as a Borrowing Base Property within fifteen
                  (15) days of such Lender's receipt of notice from the
                  Administrative Agent of its receipt of all of the items
                  identified in subsections (b) through (m) above shall be
                  deemed to constitute such Lender's consent to such New
                  Property's admittance as a Borrowing Base Property. The
                  Administrative Agent agrees to forward to any Lender copies of
                  the items identified in Subsections (b) through (m) above upon

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Credit Parties hereby
         acknowledge and agree that prior to consummation of the Management Opco
         Merger (i) any property which fails to maintain an occupancy rate of at
         least 75% for two consecutive fiscal quarters shall no longer be
         considered a Borrowing Base Property; provided, however, subject to
         satisfaction of the conditions set forth in subsections (a) through (n)
         above, with respect to any New Property that does not achieve at least
         a 75% occupancy level during the six month period commencing on the
         date such New Property commences operations, such New Property shall
         constitute a Borrowing Base Property during such six month period and
         75% of such New Property's Borrowing Base Value will be included in the
         Borrowing Base during such six month period, (ii) the sum of the
         Borrowing Base Values of the justice facilities of the Borrower shall
         not constitute more than five percent (5%) of the sum of the Borrowing
         Base Values of the Borrowing Base Properties and (iii) irrespective of
         the Borrower's failure to satisfy the occupancy requirement set forth
         above as to such below-listed New Properties, the Borrowing Base shall
         include 100% of Borrowing Base Value of (A) the, California City
         Correctional Facility, located in California City, California and (B)
         the Florence Correctional Center, located in Florence, Arizona. In the
         event the aggregate value of the justice facilities of the Borrower
         included in the Borrowing Base exceeds five percent (5%) of the
         Borrowing Base, the Borrowing Base will be reduced by an amount equal
         to such excess."

         $1,200,000,000.

                  (vi)     Non-Conforming Investments. The Consolidated Parties
         shall at no time have Non-Conforming Investments which in the aggregate
         constitute more than 5% of Total Assets.

                  (vii)    Total Indebtedness to Total Capitalization. At all
         times the ratio of Total Indebtedness to Total Capitalization shall be

                  (viii)   Minimum Liquidity. Cash and Cash Equivalents of the
         Consolidated Parties plus Availability under Section 2.1(a) shall be at
         least (i) $5,000,000 as of June 30, 2000; (ii) $5,100,000 as of July

         after fiscal year 2001, such ratio shall be equal to or less than

         7.11(b)(i), (A) during the third quarter of 2000, LTM Post Merger
         EBITDA shall be calculated by multiplying Post Merger EBITDA for the
         third quarter of 2000 by four (4), (B) during the fourth quarter of

         Merger EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2000 by (ii) two (2), and
         (C) during the first quarter of 2001, LTM Post Merger EBITDA shall be
         calculated by multiplying (i) the sum of Post Merger EBITDA for the
         third quarter of 2000 plus Post Merger EBITDA for the fourth quarter
         of 2000 plus Post Merger EBITDA for the first quarter of 2001 by

         excess of $500,000 or (b) any intellectual property, securities
         instruments, chattel paper or other personal property required to be
         delivered to the Administrative Agent as Collateral hereunder or under
         any of the Collateral Documents, the Borrower shall notify the
         Administrative Agent of same in each case as soon as practicable after
         the acquisition thereof. Each Credit Party shall take such action as
         requested by the Administrative Agent and at its own expense, to ensure
         that the Administrative Agent shall have a first priority perfected
         Lien in (i) all owned and developed real property of the Credit Parties
         (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) having a book value in excess
         of $1,000,000, (ii) to the extent deemed to be material by the
         Administrative Agent and either the Required Lenders or the Aggregate
         Required Lenders in their sole discretion, all owned and undeveloped
         real property of the Credit Parties (whether now owned or hereafter
         acquired) and (iii) all personal property of the Credit Parties
         (whether now owned or hereafter acquired), subject in each case only to
         Permitted Liens. In addition, upon the request of the Administrative
         Agent, the Borrower will assist the Administrative Agent with such
         post-closing lien searches (conducted at the Borrower's expense) as the
         Administrative Agent shall deem necessary or desirable to confirm the
         perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent's Lien on the
         Collateral.

                  (B)      In accordance with subsection (A) above and with
         Section 7.12, upon consummation of the Management Opco Merger and the
         Service Company Mergers, as the case may be, the Management Sub and the
         Service Company Subs will each become Guarantors, by way of execution
         of a joinder agreement as contemplated in the definition of "Subsidiary
         Guarantor", and substantially all of the assets formerly owned by
         Management Opco, Service Company A, and Service Company B, as
         applicable, (including, without limitation, all government contracts
         and accounts receivable), will be pledged to the Administrative Agent
         as additional Collateral for the Obligations; provided that government
         contracts, related accounts receivable and other assets of Management
         Opco currently pledged to secure the Management Opco Credit Agreement
         need not be pledged as additional Collateral so long as such assets
         continue to secure the Management Opco Credit Agreement or any
         replacement credit facility in form and substance reasonably
         satisfactory to the Required Lenders and the Required Tranche C Term
         Lenders, subject in each case to the completion of intercreditor

         cause the consummation of the Agecroft Securitization no later than
         February 28, 2001; provided that, any Event of Default caused solely by
         the failure of the Borrower to comply with this requirement will not,
         in and of itself, entitle the Lenders to receive interest on the Loans
         at the default rate specified in Section 3.1.

                  7.21.    TERMINATION OF CERTAIN AGREEMENTS. The Borrower will

         being used by the Borrower for capital expenditures and general
         corporate purposes (subject, however to the interim repayment of the
         Revolving Loans).

                  7.23.    CASH MANAGEMENT. The Credit Parties will (i) within
         forty-five (45) days after the Amendment Effective Date (the "Account
         Transfer Deadline"), transfer all depository and other non-disbursement
         accounts of the Credit Parties (other than those accounts set forth on

         held at any bank that is a Revolving Lender and cause such accounts to
         become subject to a perfected lien in favor of the Administrative Agent
         for the benefit of the Secured Parties in a manner reasonably
         satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (b) transfer all
         centralized disbursement accounts and concentration accounts of
         Management Opco and Management Sub to accounts held at any bank that is
         a Revolving Lender and cause such concentration accounts (but not the
         centralized disbursement accounts) to become subject to a perfected

         (15) Business Days after the Amendment Effective Date, the average

         quarter, the Consolidated Parties would have been in compliance with
         all the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.11."

         of the Restatement Effective Date entered into by the Borrower or any
         of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business,
         which is fair to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the

         the Borrower (including its affiliates), the other Credit Parties
         (including their affiliates), and their respective officers,

predecessors, agents, employees, successors and assigns, from all possible
claims, demands, actions, causes of action, damages, costs, or expenses, and
liabilities whatsoever, known or unknown, anticipated or unanticipated,
suspected or unsuspected, fixed, contingent, or conditional, at law or in
equity, originating in whole or in part on or before the effective date of this
Agreement, which such Credit Party may now or hereafter have against any such
Secured Party, and such Secured Party's predecessors, agents, employees,
successors and assigns, if any, in each case arising out of the Credit Agreement
