“Administrative Agent”) pursuant to authority granted to it by the Required Lenders. 
 The Borrower, the
Lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent are parties to a Credit Agreement dated as of August 4, 2010 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated as of February 8, 2011, by Amendment No. 2 dated as of May 2, 2011, by
Amendment No. 3 dated as of August 30, 2012 and as the same may be further modified and supplemented and in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), providing, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, for
extensions of credit (by means of loans and letters of credit) to be made by the Lenders to the Borrower in an aggregate principal or face amount not exceeding $1,100,000,000. 
 The Borrower intends to elect to be treated as a real estate investment trust as defined and taxed under Section 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, and in
furtherance thereof, the Borrower intends to restructure its operations, including to divest its healthcare division pursuant to that certain Purchase Agreement by and between Borrower and GEO Care Holdings LLC, a Florida limited liability company.

 In connection therewith, the Borrower has requested, and the Lenders party hereto have agreed, that the Credit Agreement be
amended in certain respects on the terms and conditions hereof, and accordingly the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

Section 1. Definitions; Section References. Except as otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 4 or as the context
requires, terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as defined therein, and references to Sections mean the respective Sections of the Credit Agreement. 
 Section 2. Amendments. 
 2.1 References Generally. References
in the Loan Documents to the Credit Agreement (including in the Credit Agreement to the “Agreement”), shall be deemed to be references to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby. 

2.2 Amendments to the Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified in Section 3 below,
but effective as of the date hereof, the Credit Agreement shall be amended as follows: 
 (a) Definitions. 

(i) The following new defined terms shall be inserted into Section 1.01 in the appropriate alphabetical order: 

“Amendment No. 4” means Amendment No. 4 to this Agreement dated as of December 14, 2012.








 “Amendment No. 4 Effective Date” means the date on
which the amendments contemplated by Amendment No. 4 become effective. 
 “Purchase
Agreement” means that certain Purchase Agreement between Borrower and GEO Care Holdings LLC, dated on or about December 4, 2012. 
 “Purchaser” means GEO Care Holdings LLC, a Florida limited liability company and Affiliate of the Borrower. 

“REIT” means a real estate investment trust as defined and taxed under Section 856-860 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time. 
 (ii) The definition of EBITDA in Section 1.01 shall be
amended to read as follows: 
 “EBITDA” means, for any period, Net Income for such period plus the sum
of the following determined on a consolidated basis, without duplication, for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Other Consolidated Persons in accordance with GAAP: (a) the sum of the following to the extent deducted in determining Net
Income: (i) income and franchise taxes, (ii) Interest Expense, (iii) amortization, depreciation and other non-cash charges (excluding insurance reserves), (iv) extraordinary charges, (v) an amount (not exceeding $20,000,000)
equal to the aggregate amount of start-up and transition costs incurred during such period in connection with Facilities and operations, and (vi) the amount of transaction costs and expenses and extraordinary charges incurred with respect to
activities (including any restructuring) undertaken in good faith for the purpose of permitting the Borrower to elect to be treated as a REIT, as certified by a Financial Officer of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, whether or not incurred
prior to, on or after such election, less (b) to the extent added in determining Net Income, interest income and any extraordinary gains. If the Acquisition or any Permitted Acquisition is consummated at any time during a period for
which EBITDA is calculated, EBITDA for such period shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis and, to the extent deducted in determining Net Income for such period, the amount of transaction costs and expenses and extraordinary charges relating to the
Acquisition or such Permitted Acquisition (or relating to any acquisition consummated by the acquired entity prior to the closing of the Acquisition or such Permitted Acquisition but during the period of computation), as the case may be, shall be
added to EBITDA for such period. For avoidance of doubt, the Make-Whole Premium (as defined in the MCF Indenture) and expenses paid in respect of the redemption of the MCF Bonds shall be deemed a transaction expense related to the acquisition of
MCF.”
