warrants to Purchaser as follows:

         a. Seller has the right to acquire and at the Closing, Seller will have
and will convey, transfer and assign to Purchaser, or Seller will cause the
conveyance, transfer and assignment to Purchaser of, good, indefeasible,
marketable and insurable title to the Land, free and clear of any deeds of

or entity will be necessary to convey the Property fully and completely to
Purchaser at Closing and to lease the Property from Purchaser following
Closing. Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Florida and is qualified to do business
in each state in which any of the Property is located. The consummation of the
transactions contemplated herein does not require the approval of Seller's
shareholders or any third party, except such third party approvals as Seller has
obtained or will obtain prior to the Closing Date. The execution by Seller of
this Agreement and the consummation by Seller of the transactions contemplated
hereby do not, and at the Closing will not, result in a breach of any of the
terms or provisions of, or constitute a default or a condition which upon notice
or lapse of time or both would ripen into a default under, Seller's Bylaws or
Certificate of Incorporation, any indenture, agreement, instrument or obligation
to which Seller is a party or by which the Property or any portion thereof is
bound; and does not constitute a violation of any Laws, order, rule or
regulation applicable to Seller or any portion of the Property of any court or
of any federal, state or municipal regulatory body or administrative agency or
other governmental body having jurisdiction over Seller or any portion of the
Property.

         c. Except as may be disclosed in the Exception Documents, there are no

and Seller has not granted to any party any license, lease or other right
relating to the use or possession of the Property.

         d. No notice has been received from any insurance company that has
issued a policy with respect to any portion of the Property or from any board of
fire underwriters (or other


                                       9
<PAGE>   12


body exercising similar functions), claiming any defects or deficiencies or
requiring the performance of any repairs, replacements, alterations or other
work and as of the Closing no such notice will have been received which shall
not have been cured. No notice has been received by Seller from any issuing
insurance company that any of such policies will not be renewed, or will be
renewed only at a higher premium rate than is presently payable therefor.

         e. No pending condemnation, eminent domain, assessment or similar
proceeding or charge affecting the Property or any portion thereof exists.
Seller has not heretofore received any notice, and has no knowledge, that any
such proceeding or charge is contemplated. Seller has not received any notice of
a proposed increase in the assessed valuation of the Property.

         f. All Improvements (including all utilities) have been, or as of the

approvals required by all governmental authorities having jurisdiction, and the
requisite certificates of the local board of fire underwriters (or other body
exercising similar functions) have been, or as of the Closing will be, issued

         g. The existing water, sewer, gas and electricity lines, storm sewer
and other utility systems on the Land are adequate to serve the utility needs of
the Property for operation as a correctional facility and detention facility or
other use set forth in the Permits. All utilities required for the operation of
the Improvements enter the Land through adjoining public streets or through
adjoining private land in accordance with valid public or private easements that
will inure to the benefit of Purchaser. All approvals, licenses and permits
required to fully operate said utilities have been obtained and are in full
force and effect. All of said utilities are installed and operating, or will be,
by Closing and all installation and connection charges have been or will be paid
in full.

         h. Except as may be set forth in any of the Due Diligence Materials,

servicing, the Property and all facilities and equipment relating thereto are
and, as of the Closing, will be in good condition and working order and adequate
in quantity and quality for the normal operation of the Property as a
correctional or detention facility or other use set forth in the Permits. No
part of the Property has been destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty.
There are no unsatisfied requests for repairs, restorations or alterations with
regard to the Property from any person, entity or authority, including but not
limited to any lender, insurance provider or governmental authority.

         j. Except as previously disclosed by Seller pursuant to contracts
delivered to Purchaser, no work has been performed or is in progress at the
Property, and no materials will have been delivered to the Property that might
provide the basis for a mechanic's, materialmen's or other lien against the
Property or any portion thereof, or amounts due for such work and material shall

Seller's Operating and Service Agreements, the Business Agreements and those
agreements furnished to Purchaser pursuant to Section 4.1.

         l. Seller is not in default in any manner which would result in a
material adverse effect on Seller under any of the Business Agreements, or

restrictions, rights-of-way or easements affecting the Property or any portion
thereof, and, to Seller's knowledge, no other party to any of the foregoing is
in default thereunder.

or agency or other governmental instrumentality.

         n. The Property has free and unimpeded access to presently existing
public highways and/or roads (either directly or by way of perpetual easements);
and, all approvals necessary therefor have been obtained. To the best of
Seller's knowledge, no fact or condition exists which would result in the
termination of the current access from the Property to any presently existing
public highways and/or roads adjoining or situated on the Property.

         o. There are no attachments, executions, assignments for the benefit of
creditors, or voluntary or involuntary proceedings in bankruptcy or under any
other debtor relief laws contemplated by or, to Seller's knowledge, pending or

Hazardous Materials have been installed, used, generated, manufactured, treated,
handled, refined, produced, processed, stored or disposed of, or otherwise
present in, on or under the Property by Seller or to Seller's knowledge. No

<PAGE>   14

respect to the Property by Seller or to Seller's knowledge which would cause a
violation or support a claim under RCRA, CERCLA, SARA or any Hazardous Materials
Law. No investigation, administrative order, litigation or settlement with
respect to any Hazardous Materials is in existence with respect to the Property,
nor, to Seller's knowledge, is any of the foregoing threatened. No notice has
been received by Seller from any entity, governmental body or individual
claiming any violation of any Hazardous Materials Law, or requiring compliance
with any Hazardous Materials Law, or demanding payment or contribution for
environmental damage or injury to natural resources. Seller has not obtained
and, to Seller's knowledge, is not required to obtain, and Seller has no
knowledge of any reason Purchaser will be required to obtain, any permits,
licenses, or similar authorizations to occupy, operate or use the Improvements
or any part of the Property by reason of any Hazardous Materials Law.
Notwithstanding the representations made herein, such representations are and
shall be deemed to be limited by the matters detailed in any Phase I Preliminary
Site Assessment or other Due Diligence Materials obtained by or provided to
Purchaser in connection herewith.

delivered to Purchaser are true, correct and complete in all material respects.

     Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and defend, at its sole cost and expense,
and hold Purchaser, its successors and assigns, harmless from and against and to
reimburse Purchaser with respect to any and all claims, demands, actions, causes
of action, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and court costs) actually incurred of any
and every kind or character, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, asserted
against or incurred by Purchaser at any time and from time to time by reason of
or arising out of (a) the material breach of any representation or warranty of
Seller set forth in Section 5.1, (b) the failure of Seller, in whole or in part,
to perform any obligation required to be performed by Seller pursuant to Section
5.1 or (C) the ownership, construction, occupancy, operation, use and
maintenance by Seller or its agents of the Property prior to the Closing Date.
This indemnity applies, without limitation, to the violation on or before the
Closing Date of any Hazardous Materials Law in effect on or before the Closing
Date and any and all matters arising out of any act, omission, event or
circumstance existing or occurring on or prior to the Closing Date (including,
without limitation, the presence on the Property or release from the Property of
Hazardous Materials disposed of or otherwise released prior to the Closing
Date), regardless of whether the act, omission, event or circumstance
constituted a violation of any Hazardous Materials Law at the time of its
existence or occurrence. Subject to the


                                       12

and assigns. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary,

equity should Seller fail to meet, comply with or perform its indemnity
obligations required by this Section 5.1. In the event a defect, claim or
deficiency is actually discovered by Purchaser prior to Closing or is noticed in
writing by Seller to Purchaser prior to Closing, Purchaser shall either
terminate the Agreement as provided herein or waive the defect, claim or
deficiency and proceed to Closing.

determined by Seller.

                                   ARTICLE X.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS


     10.1   CASUALTY. Prior to the Closing Date, and notwithstanding the
pendency of this Agreement, the entire risk of loss or damage by fire or other
casualty shall be borne and assumed by Seller, except as otherwise provided in
this Section 10.1. Until the Closing has occurred, Seller shall keep all
insurance policies in effect. If, prior to the Closing Date, any part of the
Property is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Seller shall
immediately notify Purchaser of such fact. If such damage or destruction is
material (as defined below), Purchaser shall have the option to terminate this
Agreement upon written notice to Seller given not later than thirty (30) days
after receipt of Seller's notice. For purposes hereof "material" shall be deemed
to be any uninsured damage or destruction to the Property (except that a
casualty shall not be deemed uninsured solely because all, or a portion of, the
cost of the casualty is subject to a deductible) or any insured damage or
destruction (i) where the cost of repair or replacement is estimated, in
Purchaser's good faith judgment, to be One Hundred Thousand and No/100
($100,000.00) or more, (ii) where the repair or replacement is estimated, in
Purchaser's good faith judgment, to require more than one hundred twenty (120)
days to repair, or (iii) which would result in an abatement of rent that would
not be fully covered by rent loss insurance (or its equivalent) to Seller upon
the Closing. If Purchaser does not exercise this option to terminate this
Agreement, or if the casualty is not material, neither party shall have the
right to terminate this Agreement, and the parties shall proceed to the Closing
pursuant to the terms hereof without modification of the terms of this Agreement
and without any reduction in the Purchase Price, and the repair and restoration
of the Property shall proceed in accordance with the terms and provisions of the
Lease to be entered into between Seller and Purchaser with the same effect as if
such casualty had occurred during the term of the Lease. If Purchaser does not
elect to terminate this Agreement by reason of any casualty, Purchaser shall
have the right to participate in any adjustment of the insurance claim and, in
such event, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate each with the other in good
faith.

     10.2   CONDEMNATION. Prior to the Closing Date, if all or any portion of
the Property is taken, or if access thereto is reduced or restricted, by eminent
domain or otherwise (or if such taking, reduction or restriction is pending,
threatened or contemplated) (hereinafter a "Condemnation


                                       20
<PAGE>   23


Proceeding"), Seller shall immediately notify Purchaser of such fact. In the
event that such notice relates to the taking of a material (as defined below)
portion of the Property, Purchaser shall have the option, in its sole and
absolute discretion, to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller
given not later than thirty (30) days after receipt of Seller's notice,
whereupon neither party shall have any rights, obligations or liabilities
hereunder except with respect to those rights, obligations or liabilities which
expressly survive the termination of this Agreement. For the purposes of this
Section, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a taking shall be
deemed material if it (i) restricts access to the Property (ii) reduces the
parking available to Property unless an equal or greater number of spaces may be
created through a reconfiguration of the parking facilities, or (iii) would, in
the reasonable estimation of Purchaser, cost more than $100,000 to restore the
Property or make alterations to the Property in order to maintain the Property
as a fully functioning correctional and detention facility comparable in all
respects to the condition of the Property absent such Condemnation Proceeding.
If Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement as herein provided, the
parties shall proceed to the Closing pursuant to the terms hereof without
modification of the terms of this Agreement and without any reduction in the
Purchase Price, and any condemnation award and repair and restoration of the
Property shall be governed by the terms and provisions of the Lease to be
entered into between Seller and Purchaser at the Closing with the same effect as
if such Condemnation Proceeding had occurred during the term of the Lease. If
Purchaser does not elect to terminate this Agreement by reason of any
Condemnation Proceeding, Purchaser shall have the right to participate in any
Condemnation Proceeding with respect to the Property and, in such event,
Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate each with the other in good faith.

     10.3   SURVIVAL. With the exception of Seller's obligations pursuant to the
terms of Section 5.4 of this Agreement, all of the representations, warranties,
covenants, agreements and indemnities of Seller and Purchaser contained in this
Agreement, to the extent not performed at the Closing, shall survive the Closing
for the period of one (1) year after the Closing Date and shall not be deemed to
merge upon the acceptance of the Deed by Purchaser. The obligations of Seller,
pursuant to the terms of Section 5.4, shall continue in full force and effect
until such time as Seller has fully satisfied and completed such obligations.

     10.4   RIGHT OF ASSIGNMENT. Neither this Agreement nor any interest herein
may be assigned or transferred by Purchaser to any person, firm, corporation or
other entity without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent may be
given or withheld in the sole discretion of Seller.

     10.5   NOTICES. All notices, requests and other communications under this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be either (a) delivered in person, (b)
sent by certified mail, return-receipt requested or (C) delivered by a
recognized national delivery service addressed as follows:

communication shall be deemed to be duly received if delivered in person or by a

     10.6   ENTIRE AGREEMENT; MODIFICATIONS. This Agreement embodies and
constitutes the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to the
transactions contemplated herein, and all prior or contemporaneous agreements,
understandings, representations and statements (oral or written) are merged into
this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived,
modified, amended, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing
signed by the Party against whom the enforcement of such waiver, modification,
amendment, discharge or termination is sought, and then only to the extent set
forth in such instrument.

HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE

     10.8   CAPTIONS. The captions in this Agreement are inserted for
convenience of reference only and in no way define, describe, or limit the scope
or intent of this Agreement or any of the provisions hereof.

     10.9   BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors,
administrators, legal representatives, successors, and assigns.

     10.10   TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. With respect to all provisions of this
Agreement, time is of the essence. However, if the first date of any period
which is set out in any provision of this Agreement falls on a day which is not
a Business Day, then, in such event, the time of such period shall be extended
to the next day which is a Business Day.

     10.11   WAIVER OF CONDITIONS. Any Party may at any time or times, at its
election, waive any of the conditions to its obligations hereunder, but any such
waiver shall be effective only if contained in a writing signed by such Party.
No waiver by a Party of any breach of this Agreement or of any warranty or
representation hereunder by the other Party shall be deemed to be a waiver of
any other breach by such other Party (whether preceding or succeeding and
whether or not of the same or similar nature), and no acceptance of payment or
performance by a Party after any breach by the other Party shall be deemed to be
a waiver of any breach of this Agreement or of any representation or warranty
hereunder by such other Party, whether or not the first Party knows of such
breach at the time it accepts such payment or performance. No failure or delay
by a Party to exercise any right it may have by reason of the default of the
other Party shall operate as a waiver of default or modification of this
Agreement or shall prevent the exercise of any right by the first Party while
the other Party continues to be so in default.

     10.12   LIABILITY OF GENERAL PARTNER OF PURCHASER. Seller acknowledges that
Purchaser has disclosed that the general partner of Purchaser (the "General
Partner") is a Maryland business trust formed pursuant to a Declaration of
Trust, as amended, a copy of which is duly filed with the Department of
Assessments and Taxation of the State of Maryland, which provides that no
trustee, officer, shareholder, employee or agent of the General Partner shall be
held personally liable under any written instrument creating an obligation of,
or claim against, the General Partner and that all persons dealing with the
General Partner, in any way, shall look only to the assets of the General
Partner for the payment of any sum or the performance of any obligation. Seller
agrees that any liability of the General Partner or any trustee, officer,
shareholder, employee or agent acting on behalf of the General Partner arising
out of this Agreement or the performance by Purchaser of its obligations
hereunder is limited to the assets of the General Partner in accordance with the
above Declaration of Trust.

     EXECUTED to be effective as of the Effective Date.
