    hereby amended and restated to authorize an additional
    1,000,0000 shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to
    the Plan and to make certain other amendments to the Plan,
    including a clarification the definition of a Change in Control
    to reflect how such term has been interpreted by the Committee.
    Unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 15(k) hereof,
    the Plan shall terminate on the tenth anniversary of the
    Effective Date. Capitalized terms used herein are defined in
    Annex A attached hereto.

    PURPOSE

 

    The purpose of the Plan is to enable GEO to attract, retain,

    an opportunity to acquire or increase a proprietary interest in
    GEO and to incentivize them to expend maximum effort for the
    growth and success of the Company, so as to strengthen the

    4.  
	
    ADMINISTRATION

 

    (a) Committee.  The Plan
    shall be administered by the Committee, which shall have the

    determinations not inconsistent with the specific terms and
    provisions of the Plan deemed by the Committee to be necessary
    or appropriate to the administration of the Plan, any Award
    granted or any Award Agreement entered into hereunder. The
    Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or
    reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Award
    Agreement in the manner and to the extent it shall deem
    expedient to carry the Plan into effect as it may determine in
    its sole discretion. The decisions by the Committee shall be
    final, conclusive and binding with respect to the interpretation
    and administration of the Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement
    entered into under the Plan.

 

    (b) Delegation to Officers or
    Employees.  The Committee may designate
    officers or employees of the Company to assist the Committee in
    the administration of the Plan. The Committee may delegate
    authority to officers or employees of the Company to grant

    Committee may impose and in accordance with applicable law.

 

    (c) Designation of
    Advisors.  The Committee may designate
    professional advisors to assist the Committee in the

    such counsel, consultant, or agent. The Company shall pay all
    expenses and costs incurred by the Committee for the engagement
    of any such counsel, consultant, or agent.

    harmless each Covered Individual against any cost or expense
    (including reasonable attorney fees reasonably acceptable to the
    Company) or liability (including any amount paid in settlement
    of a claim with the approval of the Company), and amounts
    advanced to such Covered Individual necessary to pay the
    foregoing at the earliest time and to the fullest extent
    permitted, arising out of any act or omission to act in
    connection with the Plan, any Award granted hereunder or any
    Award Agreement entered into hereunder. Such indemnification
    shall be in addition to any rights of indemnification such
    individuals may have under applicable law or under the Articles
    of Incorporation or Bylaws of GEO. Notwithstanding anything else
    herein, this indemnification will not apply to the actions or
    determinations made by a Covered Individual with regard to
    Awards granted to such Covered Individual under the Plan or
    arising out of such Covered Individual’s own fraud or bad
    faith.

    SHARES OF COMMON
    STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN

 

    (a) Shares Available for
    Awards.  The Common Stock that may be
    issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan shall be
    treasury shares or authorized but unissued shares of the Common
    Stock. The total number of shares of Common Stock that may be
    issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan shall be the
    sum of Two Million Four Hundred Thousand (2,400,000) shares.

 

    (b) Maximum Shares Issuable During a Fiscal
    Year.  The maximum number of shares of
    Common Stock that may be issued under all Awards granted in a
    fiscal year shall not exceed three percent (3%) of GEO’s
    maximum authorized and outstanding shares of Common Stock at any
    time during said fiscal year; provided, however, that
    (i) such limitation shall not include any substitute grants
    made in settlement of any awards under any other plan sponsored
    by GEO or substitute grants or equity assumed in connection with
    a corporate transaction, and (ii) any shares of Common
    Stock repurchased or redeemed by GEO after any Awards have been
    made which have been authorized by the Board shall nevertheless
    be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of calculating whether
    there has been a violation of this Section 5(b).

 

    (c) Certain Limitations on Specific Types of
    Awards.  The granting of Awards under this
    Plan shall be subject to the following limitations:

 

			
	 	    (i) 
	
    With respect to the shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to
    this Section, a maximum of One Million Two Hundred Thousand
    (1,200,000) of such shares may be subject to grants of Incentive
    Stock Options;

	 
	 	    (ii) 
	
    With respect to the shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to
    this Section, a maximum of One Million Eighty Three Thousand
    (1,083,000) of such shares may be issued in connection with
    Awards, other than Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights,
    that are settled in Common Stock;

	 
	 	    (iii)

    2

 

			
	 	
	
    Restricted Stock, and Awards of Common Stock to any one Eligible
    Individual during any one fiscal year; and

 

			
	 	    (v) 
	
    The maximum value at Grant Date of grants of Performance Units
    which may be granted to any one Eligible Individual during any
    one fiscal year shall be $1,000,000.

 

    (d) Reduction of Shares Available for
    Awards.  Upon the granting of an Award,
    the number of shares of Common Stock available under this
    Section hereof for the granting of further Awards shall be
    reduced as follows:

 

			
	 	    (i) 
	
    In connection with the granting of an Option or Stock
    Appreciation Right, the number of shares of Common Stock shall
    be reduced by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to
    the Option or Stock Appreciation Right;

	 
	 	    (ii) 
	
    In connection with the granting of an Award that is settled in
    Common Stock, other than the granting of an Option or Stock
    Appreciation Right, the number of shares of Common Stock shall
    be reduced by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to
    the Award; and

	 
	 	    (iii) 
	
    Awards settled in cash shall not count against the total number
    of shares of Common Stock available to be granted pursuant to
    the Plan.

 

    (e) Cancelled, Forfeited, or Surrendered
    Awards.  Notwithstanding anything to the
    contrary in this Plan, if any Award is cancelled, forfeited or
    terminated for any reason prior to exercise or becoming vested
    in full, the shares of Common Stock that were subject to such
    Award shall, to the extent cancelled, forfeited or terminated,
    immediately become available for future Awards granted under the
    Plan as if said Award had never been granted; provided, however,
    that any shares of Common Stock subject to an Award which is
    cancelled, forfeited or terminated in order to pay the Exercise
    Price, purchase price or any taxes or tax withholdings on an
    Award shall not be available for future Awards granted under the
    Plan.

 

    (f) Recapitalization.  If
    the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased or
    decreased or changed into or exchanged for a different number or
    kind of shares or other securities of GEO by reason of any
    recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, stock split,
    reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock
    dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock of GEO
    or other increase or decrease in such shares effected without
    receipt of consideration by GEO occurring after the Effective
    Date, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made
    by the Committee to (i) the aggregate number and kind of
    shares of Common Stock available under the Plan (including, but
    not limited to, the aggregate limits of the number of shares of
    Common Stock described in Sections 5(c)(i) and (ii),
    (ii) the limits on the number of shares of Common Stock
    that may be granted to an Eligible Employee in any one fiscal
    year, (iii) the calculation of the reduction of shares of
    Common Stock available under the Plan, (iv) the number and
    kind of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise (or
    vesting) of outstanding Awards granted under the Plan;
    (v) the Exercise Price of outstanding Options granted under
    the Plan,
    and/or
    (vi) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Awards
    granted to Non-Employee Directors under Section 10. No
    fractional shares of Common Stock or units of other securities
    shall be issued pursuant to any such adjustment under this
    Section 5(f), and any fractions resulting from any such
    adjustment shall be eliminated in each case by rounding downward
    to the nearest whole share or unit. Any adjustments made under
    this Section 5(f) with respect to any Incentive Stock
    Options must be made in accordance with Code Section 424.

 

		
	
    6.  
	
    OPTIONS

 

    (a) Grant of
    Options.  Subject to the terms and
    conditions of the Plan, the Committee may grant to such Eligible
    Individuals as the Committee may determine, Options to purchase
    such number of shares of Common Stock and on such terms and
    conditions as the Committee shall determine in its sole and
    absolute discretion. Each grant of an Option shall satisfy the
    requirements set forth in this Section.

 

    (b) Type of Options.  Each
    Option granted under the Plan may be designated by the
    Committee, in its sole discretion, as either (i) an
    Incentive Stock Option, or (ii) a Non-Qualified Stock
    Option. Options designated as Incentive Stock Options that fail
    to continue to meet the requirements of Code Section 422
    shall be re-designated as Non-Qualified Stock Options
    automatically on the date of such failure to continue to meet
    such requirements

    

3

 

    without further action by the Committee. In the absence of any
    designation, Options granted under the Plan will be deemed to be
    Non-Qualified Stock Options.

 

    (c) Exercise Price.  Subject
    to the limitations set forth in the Plan relating to Incentive
    Stock Options, the Exercise Price of an Option shall be fixed by
    the Committee and stated in the respective Award Agreement,
    provided that the Exercise Price of the shares of Common Stock
    subject to such Option may not be less than Fair Market Value of
    such Common Stock on the Grant Date, or if greater, the par
    value of the Common Stock.

 

    (d) Limitation on
    Repricing.  Unless such action is approved
    by GEO’s shareholders in accordance with applicable law:
    (i) no outstanding Option granted under the Plan may be
    amended to provide an Exercise Price that is lower than the
    then-current Exercise Price of such outstanding Option (other
    than adjustments to the Exercise Price pursuant to
    Sections 5(d) and 12); (ii) the Committee may not
    cancel any outstanding Option and grant in substitution
    therefore new Awards under the Plan covering the same or a
    different number of shares of Common Stock and having an
    Exercise Price lower than the then-current Exercise Price of the
    cancelled Option (other than adjustments to the Exercise Price
    pursuant to Sections 5(f) and 12); and (iii) the
    Committee may not authorize the repurchase of an outstanding
    Option which has an Exercise Price that is higher than the
    then-current fair market value of the Common Stock (other than
    adjustments to the Exercise Price pursuant to Sections 5(f)
    and 12).

 

    (e) Limitation on Option
    Period.  Subject to the limitations set
    forth in the Plan relating to Incentive Stock Options, Options
    granted under the Plan and all rights to purchase Common Stock
    thereunder shall terminate no later than the tenth anniversary
    of the Grant Date of such Options, or on such earlier date as
    may be stated in the Award Agreement relating to such Option. In
    the case of Options expiring prior to the tenth anniversary of
    the Grant Date, the Committee may in its discretion, at any time
    prior to the expiration or termination of said Options, extend
    the term of any such Options for such additional period as it
    may determine, but in no event beyond the tenth anniversary of
    the Grant Date thereof.

 

    (f) Limitations on Incentive Stock
    Options.  Notwithstanding any other
    provisions of the Plan, the following provisions shall apply
    with respect to Incentive Stock Options granted pursuant to the
    Plan.

 

			
	 	    (i) 
	
    Limitation on Grants.  Incentive
    Stock Options may only be granted to Section 424 Employees.
    The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time such
    Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the shares of Common Stock
    for which any individual may have Incentive Stock Options which
    first become vested and exercisable in any calendar year (under
    all incentive stock option plans of the Company) shall not
    exceed $100,000. Options granted to such individual in excess of
    the $100,000 limitation, and any Options issued subsequently
    which first become vested and exercisable in the same calendar
    year, shall automatically be treated as Non-Qualified Stock
    Options.

	 
	 	    (ii) 
	
    Minimum Exercise Price.  In no
    event may the Exercise Price of a share of Common Stock subject
    an Incentive Stock Option be less than 100% of the Fair Market
    Value of such share of Common Stock on the Grant Date.

 

			
	 	    (iii) 
	
    Ten
    Percent Shareholder.  Notwithstanding
    any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the case of
    Incentive Stock Options granted to a Section 424 Employee
    who, at the time the Option is granted, owns (after application
    of the rules set forth in Code Section 424(d)) stock possessing
    more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all
    classes of stock of GEO, such Incentive Stock Options
    (i) must have an Exercise Price per share of Common Stock
    that is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value as of the Grant
    Date of a share of Common Stock, and (ii) must not be
    exercisable after the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date.

 

    (g) Vesting Schedule and
    Conditions.  No Options may be exercised
    prior to the satisfaction of the conditions and vesting schedule
    provided for in the Award Agreement relating thereto. Except as
    otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement in its
    sole and absolute discretion, subject to Sections 10, 12
    and 13 of the Plan, Options covered by any Award under this Plan
    that are subject solely to a future service requirement shall
    vest as follows: (i) 20% of the Options subject to an Award
    shall vest immediately upon the Grant Date; and (ii) the
    remaining 80% of the Options subject to an Award shall vest over
    the four-year period immediately following the Grant Date in
    equal annual increments of 20%, with one increment vesting on
    each anniversary date of the Grant Date.

    

    4

 

 

    (h) Exercise.  When the
    conditions to the exercise of an Option have been satisfied, the
    Participant may exercise the Option only in accordance with the
    following provisions. The Participant shall deliver to GEO a
    written notice stating that the Participant is exercising the
    Option and specifying the number of shares of Common Stock which
    are to be purchased pursuant to the Option, and such notice
    shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price of
    the shares for which the Option is being exercised, by one or
    more of the methods provided for in the Plan. Said notice must
    be delivered to GEO at its principal office and addressed to the
    attention of John J. Bulfin, General Counsel, The GEO Group
    Inc., 621 NW 53rd Street, Suite 700, Boca Raton,
    Florida 33487. An attempt to exercise any Option granted
    hereunder other than as set forth in the Plan shall be invalid
    and of no force and effect.

 

    (i) Payment.  Payment of the
    Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant
    to the exercise of an Option shall be made by one of the
    following methods:

 

			
	 	    (i) 
	
    by cash, certified or cashier’s check, bank draft or money
    order;

	 
	 	    (ii) 
	
    through the delivery to GEO of shares of Common Stock which have
    been previously owned by the Participant for the requisite
    period necessary to avoid a charge to GEO’s earnings for
    financial reporting purposes; such shares shall be valued, for
    purposes of determining the extent to which the Exercise Price
    has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value on the date of
    exercise; without limiting the foregoing, the Committee may
    require the Participant to furnish an opinion of counsel
    acceptable to the Committee to the effect that such delivery
    would not result in GEO incurring any liability under
    Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act; or

 

			
	 	    (iii) 
	
    by any other method which the Committee, in its sole and
    absolute discretion and to the extent permitted by applicable
    law, may permit, including, but not limited to, any of the
    following: (A) through a “cashless exercise sale and
    remittance procedure” pursuant to which the Participant
    shall concurrently provide irrevocable instructions (1) to
    a brokerage firm approved by the Committee to effect the
    immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to GEO, out of
    the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient
    funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the
    purchased shares plus all applicable federal, state and local
    income, employment, excise, foreign and other taxes required to
    be withheld by the Company by reason of such exercise and
    (2) to GEO to deliver the certificates for the purchased
    shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the
    sale; or (B) by any other method as may be permitted by the
    Committee.

 

    (j) Termination of Employment, Disability or
    Death.  Unless otherwise provided in an
    Award Agreement, upon the termination of the employment or other
    service of a Participant with Company for any reason, all of the
    Participant’s outstanding Options (whether vested or
    unvested) shall be subject to the rules of this paragraph. Upon
    such termination, the Participant’s unvested Options shall
    expire. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary,
    the Committee may provide, in its sole and absolute discretion,
    that following the termination of employment or other service of
    a Participant with the Company for any reason (i) any
    unvested Options held by the Participant that vest solely upon a
    future service requirement shall vest in whole or in part, at
    any time subsequent to such termination of employment or other
    service, and or (ii) a Participant or the
    Participant’s estate, devisee or heir at law (whichever is
    applicable), may exercise an Option, in whole or in part, at any
    time subsequent to such termination of employment or other
    service and prior to the termination of the Option pursuant to
    its terms. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee,
    temporary absence from employment because of illness, vacation,
    approved leaves of absence or military service shall not
    constitute a termination of employment or other service.

 

			
	 	    (i) 
	
    Termination for Reason Other Than Cause, Disability or
    Death.  If a Participant’s
    termination of employment or other service is for any reason
    other than death, Disability, Cause or a voluntary termination
    within ninety (90) days after occurrence of an event which
    would be grounds for termination of employment or other service
    by the Company for Cause, any Option held by such Participant,
    may be exercised, to the extent exercisable at termination, by
    the Participant at any time within a period not to exceed ninety
    (90) days from the date of such termination, but in no
    event after the termination of the Option pursuant to its terms.

	 
	 	    (ii) 
	
    Disability.  If a
    Participant’s termination of employment or other service
    with the Company is by reason of a Disability of such
    Participant, the Participant shall have the right at any time
    within a

    

    5

 

			
	 	
	
    period not to exceed one (1) year after such termination,
    but in no event after the termination of the Option pursuant to
    its terms, to exercise, in whole or in part, any vested portion
    of the Option held by such Participant at the date of such
    termination; provided, however, that if the Participant dies
    within such period, any vested Option held by such Participant
    upon death shall be exercisable by the Participant’s
    estate, devisee or heir at law (whichever is applicable) for a
    period not to exceed one (1) year after the
    Participant’s death, but in no event after the termination
    of the Option pursuant to its terms.

 

			
	 	    (iii) 
	
    Death.  If a Participant dies
    while in the employment or other service of the Company, the
    Participant’s estate or the devisee named in the
    Participant’s valid last will and testament or the
    Participant’s heir at law who inherits the Option has the
    right, at any time within a period not to exceed one
    (1) year after the date of such Participant’s death,
    but in no event after the termination of the Option pursuant to
    its terms, to exercise, in whole or in part, any portion of the
    vested Option held by such Participant at the date of such
    Participant’s death.

 

			
	 	    (iv) 
	
    Termination for Cause.  In the
    event the termination is for Cause or is a voluntary termination
    within ninety (90) days after occurrence of an event which
    would be grounds for termination of employment or other service
    by the Company for Cause (without regard to any notice or cure
    period requirement), any Option held by the Participant at the
    time of such termination shall be deemed to have terminated and
    expired upon the date of such termination.

 

		
	
    7.  
	
    STOCK
    APPRECIATION RIGHTS

 

    (a) Grant of Stock Appreciation
    Rights.  Subject to the terms and
    conditions of the Plan, the Committee may grant to such Eligible
    Individuals as the Committee may determine, Stock Appreciation
    Rights, in such amounts and on such terms and conditions as the
    Committee shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion.
    Each grant of a Stock Appreciation Right shall satisfy the
    requirements as set forth in this Section.

 

    (b) Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation
    Rights.  Unless otherwise provided in an
    Award Agreement, the terms and conditions (including, without
    limitation, the limitations on the Exercise Price, exercise
    period, repricing and termination) of the Stock Appreciation
    Right shall be substantially identical (to the extent possible
    taking into account the differences related to the character of
    the Stock Appreciation Right) to the terms and conditions that
    would have been applicable under Section 6 above were the
    grant of the Stock Appreciation Rights a grant of an Option.

 

    (c) Exercise of Stock Appreciation
    Rights.  Stock Appreciation Rights shall
    be exercised by a Participant only by written notice delivered
    to the General Counsel of GEO, specifying the number of shares
    of Common Stock with respect to which the Stock Appreciation
    Right is being exercised.

 

    (d) Payment of Stock Appreciation
    Right.  Unless otherwise provided in an
    Award Agreement, upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right,
    the Participant or Participant’s estate, devisee or heir at
    law (whichever is applicable) shall be entitled to receive
    payment, in cash, in shares of Common Stock, or in a combination
    thereof, as determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute
    discretion. The amount of such payment shall be determined by
    multiplying the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of a
    share of Common Stock on the date of exercise over the Fair
    Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Grant Date, by
    the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the
    Stock Appreciation Rights are then being exercised.
    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may limit in any
    manner the amount payable with respect to a Stock Appreciation
    Right by including such limitation in the Award Agreement.

 

		
	
    8.  
	
    RESTRICTED
    STOCK

 

    (a) Grant of Restricted
    Stock.  Subject to the terms and
    conditions of the Plan, the Committee may grant to such Eligible
    Individuals as the Committee may determine, Restricted Stock, in
    such amounts and on such terms and conditions as the Committee
    shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Each grant
    of Restricted Stock shall satisfy the requirements as set forth
    in this Section.

    

    6

 

 

    (b) Restrictions.  The
    Committee shall impose such restrictions on any Restricted Stock
    granted pursuant to the Plan as it may deem advisable including,
    without limitation; time based vesting restrictions, or the
    attainment of Performance Goals. Except as otherwise provided by
    the Committee in an Award Agreement in its sole and absolute
    discretion, subject to Sections 10, 12 and 13 of the Plan,
    Restricted Stock covered by any Award under this Plan that are
    subject solely to a future service requirement shall vest over
    the four-year period immediately following the Grant Date in
    equal annual increments of 25%, with one increment vesting on
    each anniversary date of the Grant Date. Shares of Restricted
    Stock subject to the attainment of Performance Goals will be
    released from restrictions only after the attainment of such
    Performance Goals has been certified by the Committee in
    accordance with Section 9(c).

 

    (c) Certificates and Certificate
    Legend.  With respect to a grant of
    Restricted Stock, the Company may issue a certificate evidencing
    such Restricted Stock to the Participant or issue and hold such
    shares of Restricted Stock for the benefit of the Participant
    until the applicable restrictions expire. The Company may legend
    the certificate representing Restricted Stock to give
    appropriate notice of such restrictions. In addition to any such
    legends, each certificate representing shares of Restricted
    Stock granted pursuant to the Plan shall bear the following
    legend:

 

    “The sale or other transfer of the shares of stock
    represented by this certificate, whether voluntary, involuntary,
    or by operation of law, are subject to certain terms,
    conditions, and restrictions on transfer as set forth in The GEO
    Group, Inc. 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”),
    and in an Agreement entered into by and between the registered
    owner of such shares and The GEO Group, Inc. (the
    “Company”), dated  ,
    20          
    (the “Award Agreement”). A copy of the Plan and the
    Award Agreement may be obtained from the Secretary of the
    Company.”

 

    (d) Removal of
    Restrictions.  Except as otherwise
    provided in the Plan, shares of Restricted Stock shall become
    freely transferable by the Participant upon the lapse of the
    applicable restrictions. Once the shares of Restricted Stock are
    released from the restrictions, the Participant shall be
    entitled to have the legend required by paragraph (c) above
    removed from the share certificate evidencing such Restricted
    Stock and the Company shall pay or distribute to the Participant
    all dividends and distributions held in escrow by the Company
    with respect to such Restricted Stock.

 

    (e) Shareholder
    Rights.  Unless otherwise provided in an
    Award Agreement, until the expiration of all applicable
    restrictions, (i) the Restricted Stock shall be treated as
    outstanding, (ii) the Participant holding shares of
    Restricted Stock may exercise full voting rights with respect to
    such shares, and (iii) the Participant holding shares of
    Restricted Stock shall be entitled to receive all dividends and
    other distributions paid with respect to such shares while they
    are so held. If any such dividends or distributions are paid in
    shares of Common Stock, such shares shall be subject to the same
    restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the shares
    of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid.
    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, at the discretion of
    the Committee, all such dividends and distributions may be held
    in escrow by the Company (subject to the same restrictions on
    forfeitability) until all restrictions on the respective
    Restricted Stock have lapsed.

 

    (f) Termination of
    Service.  Unless otherwise provided in a
    Award Agreement, if a Participant’s employment or other
    service with the Company terminates for any reason, all unvested
    shares of Restricted Stock held by the Participant and any
    dividends or distributions held in escrow by GEO with respect to
    such Restricted Stock shall be forfeited immediately and
    returned to the Company. Notwithstanding this paragraph, all
    grants of Restricted Stock that vest solely upon the attainment
    of Performance Goals shall be treated pursuant to the terms and
    conditions that would have been applicable under
    Section 9(c) as if such grants of Restricted Stock were
    Awards of Performance Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this
    Plan to the contrary, the Committee may provide, in its sole and
    absolute discretion, that following the termination of
    employment or other service of a Participant with the Company
    for any reason, any unvested shares of Restricted Stock held by
    the Participant that vest solely upon a future service
    requirement shall vest in whole or in part, at any time
    subsequent to such termination of employment or other service.

    PERFORMANCE
    SHARES AND PERFORMANCE UNITS

 

    (a) Grant of Performance Shares and Performance
    Units.  Subject to the terms and
    conditions of the Plan, the Committee may grant to such Eligible
    Individuals as the Committee may determine, Performance Shares
    and

    

    7

 

    Performance Units, in such amounts and on such terms and
    conditions as the Committee shall determine in its sole and
    absolute discretion. Each grant of a Performance Share or a
    Performance Unit shall satisfy the requirements as set forth in
    this Section.

 

    (b) Performance
    Goals.  Performance Goals will be based on
    one or more of the following criteria, as determined by the
    Committee in its absolute and sole discretion: (i) the
    attainment of certain target levels of, or a specified increase
    in, GEO’s enterprise value or value creation targets;
    (ii) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a
    percentage increase in, GEO’s after-tax or pre-tax profits
    including, without limitation, that attributable to GEO’s
    continuing
    and/or other
    operations; (iii) the attainment of certain target levels
    of, or a specified increase relating to, GEO’s operational
    cash flow or working capital, or a component thereof;
    (iv) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a
    specified decrease relating to, GEO’s operational costs, or
    a component thereof (v) the attainment of a certain level
    of reduction of, or other specified objectives with regard to
    limiting the level of increase in all or a portion of bank debt
    or other of GEO’s long-term or short-term public or private
    debt or other similar financial obligations of GEO, which may be
    calculated net of cash balances
    and/or other
    offsets and adjustments as may be established by the Committee;
    (vi) the attainment of a specified percentage increase in
    earnings per share or earnings per share from GEO’s
    continuing operations; (vii) the attainment of certain
    target levels of, or a specified percentage increase in,
    GEO’s net sales, revenues, net income or earnings before
    income tax or other exclusions; (viii) the attainment of
    certain target levels of, or a specified increase in, GEO’s
    return on capital employed or return on invested capital;
    (ix) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a
    percentage increase in, GEO’s after-tax or pre-tax return
    on shareholder equity; (x) the attainment of certain target
    levels in the fair market value of GEO’s Common Stock;
    (xi) the growth in the value of an investment in the Common
    Stock assuming the reinvestment of dividends;
    and/or
    (xii) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a
    specified increase in, EBITDA (earnings before income tax,
    depreciation and amortization). In addition, Performance Goals
    may be based upon the attainment by a subsidiary, division or
    other operational unit of GEO of specified levels of performance
    under one or more of the measures described above. Further, the
    Performance Goals may be based upon the attainment by GEO (or a
    subsidiary, division, facility or other operational unit of GEO)
    of specified levels of performance under one or more of the
    foregoing measures relative to the performance of other
    corporations. To the extent permitted under Code
    Section 162(m) of the Code (including, without limitation,
    compliance with any requirements for shareholder approval), the
    Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion:
    (i) designate additional business criteria upon which the
    Performance Goals may be based; (ii) modify, amend or
    adjust the business criteria described herein; or
    (iii) incorporate in the Performance Goals provisions
    regarding changes in accounting methods, corporate transactions
    (including, without limitation, dispositions or acquisitions)
    and similar events or circumstances. Performance Goals may
    include a threshold level of performance below which no Award
    will be earned, levels of performance at which an Award will
    become partially earned and a level at which an Award will be
    fully earned.

 

    (c) Terms and Conditions of Performance Shares and
    Performance Units.  The applicable Award
    Agreement shall set forth (i) the number of Performance
    Shares or the dollar value of Performance Units granted to the
    Participant; (ii) the Performance Period and Performance
    Goals with respect to each such Award; (iii) the threshold,
    target and maximum shares of Common Stock or dollar values of
    each Performance Share or Performance Unit and corresponding
    Performance Goals, and (iv) any other terms and conditions
    as the Committee determines in its sole and absolute discretion.
    The Committee shall establish, in its sole and absolute
    discretion, the Performance Goals for the applicable Performance
    Period for each Performance Share or Performance Unit granted
    hereunder. Performance Goals for different Participants and for
    different grants of Performance Shares and Performance Units
    need not be identical. Unless otherwise provided in an Award
    Agreement, the Participants’ rights as a shareholder in
    Performance Shares shall be substantially identical to the terms
    and conditions that would have been applicable under
    Section 8 above if the Performance Shares were Restricted
    Stock. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, a holder
    of Performance Units is not entitled to the rights of a holder
    of Common Stock.

 

    (d) Determination and Payment of Performance Units
    or Performance Shares Earned.  As soon as
    practicable after the end of a Performance Period, the Committee
    shall determine the extent to which Performance Shares or
    Performance Units have been earned on the basis of the
    Company’s actual performance in relation to the established
    Performance Goals as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement
    and shall certify these results in writing. As soon as
    practicable after the Committee has determined that an amount is
    payable or should be distributed with respect to a Performance
    Share or a Performance Unit, the Committee shall cause the
    amount of such Award to be paid or

    

    8

 

    distributed to the Participant or the Participant’s estate,
    devisee or heir at law (whichever is applicable). Unless
    otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, the Committee shall
    determine in its sole and absolute discretion whether payment
    with respect to the Performance Share or Performance Unit shall
    be made in cash, in shares of Common Stock, or in a combination
    thereof. For purposes of making payment or a distribution with
    respect to a Performance Share or Performance Unit, the cash
    equivalent of a share of Common Stock shall be determined by the
    Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the day the Committee
    designates the Performance Shares or Performance Units to be
    payable.

 

    (e) Termination of
    Employment.  Unless otherwise provided in
    an Award Agreement, if a Participant’s employment or other
    service with the Company terminates for any reason, all of the
    Participant’s outstanding Performance Shares and
    Performance Units shall be subject to the rules of this Section.

 

			
	 	    (i) 
	
    Termination for Reason Other Than Death or
    Disability.  If a Participant’s
    employment or other service with the Company terminates prior to
    the expiration of a Performance Period with respect to any
    Performance Units or Performance Shares held by such Participant
    for any reason other than death or Disability, the outstanding
    Performance Units or Performance Shares held by such Participant
    for which the Performance Period has not yet expired shall
    terminate upon such termination and the Participant shall have
    no further rights pursuant to such Performance Units or
    Performance Shares.

	 
	 	    (ii) 
	
    Termination of Employment for Death or
    Disability.  If a Participant’s
    employment or other service with the Company terminates by
    reason of the Participant’s death or Disability prior to
    the end of a Performance Period, the Participant, or the
    Participant’s estate, devisee or heir at law (whichever is
    applicable) shall be entitled to a payment of the
    Participant’s outstanding Performance Units and Performance
    Share at the end of the applicable Performance Period, pursuant
    to the terms of the Plan and the Participant’s Award
    Agreement; provided, however, that the Participant shall be
    deemed to have earned only that proportion (to the nearest whole
    unit or share) of the Performance Units or Performance Shares
    granted to the Participant under such Award as the number of
    full months of the Performance Period which have elapsed since
    the first day of the Performance Period for which the Award was
    granted to the end of the month in which the Participant’s
    termination of employment or other service, bears to the total
    number of months in the Performance Period, subject to the
    attainment of the Performance Goals associated with the Award as
    certified by the Committee. The right to receive any remaining
    Performance Units or Performance Shares shall be canceled and
    forfeited.

 

		
	
    10.  
	
    VESTING OF AWARD
    GRANTS TO NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS

 

    Notwithstanding the minimum vesting provisions in
    Section 6(g) and 8(b) of the Plan, any Award granted to a
    Non-Employee Director in lieu of cash compensation shall not be
    subject to any minimum vesting requirements.

 

		
	
    11.  
	
    OTHER
    AWARDS

 

    Awards of shares of Common Stock, phantom stock, restricted
    stock units and other awards that are valued in whole or in part
    by reference to, or otherwise based on, Common Stock, may also
    be made, from time to time, to Eligible Individuals as may be
    selected by the Committee. Such Common Stock may be issued in
    satisfaction of awards granted under any other plan sponsored by
    the Company or compensation payable to an Eligible Individual.
    In addition, such awards may be made alone or in addition to or
    in connection with any other Award granted hereunder. The
    Committee may determine the terms and conditions of any such
    award. Each such award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement
    between the Eligible Individual and the Company which shall
    specify the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the
    award, any consideration therefore, any vesting or performance
    requirements and such other terms and conditions as the
    Committee shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion.
    With respect to the Awards that may be issued solely pursuant to
    this Section 11 and not pursuant to any other provision of
    the Plan, a maximum number of shares of Common Stock with
    respect to which such Awards may be issued, shall not exceed
    five percent (5%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock
    that may be issued under the Plan, as described in
    Section 5(a).

    12.  
	
    CHANGE IN
    CONTROL

 

    Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, upon the
    occurrence of a Change in Control of GEO, the Committee may in
    its sole and absolute discretion, provide on a case by case
    basis that (i) some or all outstanding Awards may become
    immediately exercisable or vested, without regard to any
    limitation imposed pursuant to this Plan, (ii) that all
    Awards shall terminate, provided that Participants shall have
    the right, immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change in
    Control and during such reasonable period as the Committee in
    its sole discretion shall determine and designate, to exercise
    any vested Award in whole or in part, (iii) that all Awards
    shall terminate, provided that Participants shall be entitled to
    a cash payment equal to the Change in Control Price with respect
    to shares subject to the vested portion of the Award net of the
    Exercise Price thereof (if applicable), (iv) provide that,
    in connection with a liquidation or dissolution of GEO, Awards
    shall convert into the right to receive liquidation proceeds net
    of the Exercise Price (if applicable) and (v) any
    combination of the foregoing. In the event that the Committee
    does not terminate or convert an Award upon a Change in Control
    of GEO, then the Award shall be assumed, or substantially
    equivalent Awards shall be substituted, by the acquiring, or
    succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof).

 

		
	
    13.  
	
    CHANGE IN STATUS
    OF PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY

 

    Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement or otherwise
    determined by the Committee, in the event that an entity or
    business unit which was previously a part of the Company is no
    longer a part of the Company, as determined by the Committee in
    its sole discretion, the Committee may, in its sole and absolute
    discretion: (i) provide on a case by case basis that some
    or all outstanding Awards held by a Participant employed by or
    performing service for such entity or business unit may become
    immediately exercisable or vested, without regard to any
    limitation imposed pursuant to this Plan; (ii) provide on a
    case by case basis that some or all outstanding Awards held by a
    Participant employed by or performing service for such entity or
    business unit may remain outstanding, may continue to vest,
    and/or may
    remain exercisable for a period not exceeding one (1) year,
    subject to the terms of the Award Agreement and this Plan;
    and/or
    (ii) treat the employment or other services of a
    Participant employed by such entity or business unit as
    terminated if such Participant is not employed by GEO or any
    entity that is a part of the Company immediately after such
    event.

 

		
	
    14.  
	
    REQUIREMENTS OF
    LAW

 

    (a) Violations of Law.  The
    Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of
    Common Stock under any Award if the sale or issuance of such
    shares would constitute a violation by the individual exercising
    the Award, the Participant or the Company of any provisions of
    any law or regulation of any governmental authority, including
    without limitation any provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and
    any other federal or state securities laws or regulations. Any
    determination in this connection by the Committee shall be
    final, binding, and conclusive. The Company shall not be
    obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the
    exercise of an Award, the issuance of shares pursuant thereto or
    the grant of an Award to comply with any law or regulation of
    any governmental authority.

 

    (b) Registration.  At the
    time of any exercise or receipt of any Award, the Company may,
    if it shall determine it necessary or desirable for any reason,
    require the Participant (or Participant’s heirs, legatees
    or legal representative, as the case may be), as a condition to
    the exercise or grant thereof, to deliver to the Company a
    written representation of present intention to hold the shares
    for their own account as an investment and not with a view to,
    or for sale in connection with, the distribution of such shares,
    except in compliance with applicable federal and state
    securities laws with respect thereto. In the event such
    representation is required to be delivered, an appropriate
    legend may be placed upon each certificate delivered to the
    Participant (or Participant’s heirs, legatees or legal
    representative, as the case may be) upon the Participant’s
    exercise of part or all of the Award or receipt of an Award and
    a stop transfer order may be placed with the transfer agent.
    Each Award shall also be subject to the requirement that, if at
    any time the Company determines, in its discretion, that the
    listing, registration or qualification of the shares subject to
    the Award upon any securities exchange or under any state or
    federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental
    regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of or
    in connection with, the issuance or purchase of the shares
    thereunder, the Award may not be exercised in whole or in part
    and the restrictions on an Award may not be removed unless such
    listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall
    have been

    

    10

 

    effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to
    the Company in its sole discretion. The Participant shall
    provide the Company with any certificates, representations and
    information that the Company requests and shall otherwise
    cooperate with the Company in obtaining any listing,
    registration, qualification, consent or approval that the
    Company deems necessary or appropriate. The Company shall not be
    obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the
    exercisability or vesting of an Award, to cause the exercise of
    an Award or the issuance of shares pursuant thereto, or to cause
    the grant of Award to comply with any law or regulation of any
    governmental authority.

 

    (c) Withholding.  The
    Committee may make such provisions and take such steps as it may
    deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes
    that the Company is required by any law or regulation of any
    governmental authority, whether federal, state or local,
    domestic or foreign, to withhold in connection with the grant or
    exercise of an Award, or the removal of restrictions on an Award
    including, but not limited to: (i) the withholding of
    delivery of shares of Common Stock until the holder reimburses
    the Company for the amount the Company is required to withhold
    with respect to such taxes; (ii) the canceling of any
    number of shares of Common Stock issuable in an amount
    sufficient to reimburse the Company for the amount it is
    required to so withhold; (iii) withholding the amount due
    from any such person’s wages or compensation due to such
    person; or (iv) requiring the Participant to pay the
    Company cash in the amount the Company is required to withhold
    with respect to such taxes.

 

    (d) Governing Law.  The Plan
    shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance
    with, the laws of the State of Florida.

 

		
	
    15.  
	
    GENERAL
    PROVISIONS

 

    (a) Award Agreements.  All
    Awards granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an
    Award Agreement. Each Award Agreement shall specify the terms
    and conditions of the Award granted and shall contain any
    additional provisions as the Committee shall deem appropriate,
    in its sole and absolute discretion (including, to the extent
    that the Committee deems appropriate, provisions relating to
    confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation and similar
    matters). The terms of each Award Agreement need not be
    identical for Eligible Individuals provided that all Award
    Agreements comply with the terms of the Plan.

 

    (b) Purchase Price.  To the
    extent the purchase price of any Award granted hereunder is less
    than par value of a share of Common Stock and such purchase
    price is not permitted by applicable law, the per share purchase
    price shall be deemed to be equal to the par value of a share of
    Common Stock.

 

    (c) Dividends and Dividend
    Equivalents.  Except as provided by the
    Committee in its sole and absolute discretion or as otherwise
    provided in Section 5(d) and subject to Section 8(e)
    of the Plan, a Participant shall not be entitled to receive,
    currently or on a deferred basis, cash or stock dividends,
    Dividend Equivalents, or cash payments in amounts equivalent to
    cash or stock dividends on shares of Commons Stock covered by an
    Award which has not vested or an Option. The Committee in its
    absolute and sole discretion may credit a Participant’s
    Award with Dividend Equivalents with respect to any Awards. To
    the extent that dividends and distributions relating to an Award
    are held in escrow by the Company, or Dividend Equivalents are
    credited to an Award, a Participant shall not be entitled to any
    interest on any such amounts. The Committee may not grant
    Dividend Equivalents to an Award subject to performance-based
    vesting to the extent that the grant of such Dividend
    Equivalents would limit the Company’s deduction of the
    compensation payable under such Award for federal tax purposes
    pursuant to Code Section 162(m).

 

    (d) Deferral of Awards.  The
    Committee may from time to time establish procedures pursuant to
    which a Participant may elect to defer, until a time or times
    later than the vesting of an Award, receipt of all or a portion
    of the shares of Common Stock or cash subject to such Award and
    to receive Common Stock or cash at such later time or times, all
    on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine.
    The Committee shall not permit the deferral of an Award unless
    counsel for GEO determines that such action will not result in
    adverse tax consequences to a Participant under
    Section 409A of the Code. If any such deferrals are
    permitted, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
    a Participant who elects to defer receipt of Common Stock shall
    not have any rights as a shareholder with respect to deferred
    shares of Common Stock unless and until shares of Common Stock
    are actually delivered to the Participant with respect thereto,
    except to the extent otherwise determined by the Committee.

    

    11

 

 

    (e) Prospective
    Employees.  Notwithstanding anything to
    the contrary, any Award granted to a Prospective Employee shall
    not become vested prior to the date the Prospective Employee
    first becomes an employee of the Company.

 

    (f) Issuance of Certificates; Shareholder
    Rights.  GEO shall deliver to the
    Participant a certificate evidencing the Participant’s
    ownership of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the
    exercise of an Award as soon as administratively practicable
    after satisfaction of all conditions relating to the issuance of
    such shares. A Participant shall not have any of the rights of a
    shareholder with respect to such Common Stock prior to
    satisfaction of all conditions relating to the issuance of such
    Common Stock, and, except as expressly provided in the Plan, no
    adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other
    rights of any kind for which the record date is prior to the
    date on which all such conditions have been satisfied.

 

    (g) Transferability of
    Awards.  A Participant may not Transfer an
    Award other than by will or the laws of descent and
    distribution. Awards may be exercised during the
    Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant. No Award
    shall be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, or
    liabilities of any Participant, nor shall any Award be subject
    to legal process or attachment for or against such person. Any
    purported Transfer of an Award in contravention of the
    provisions of the Plan shall have no force or effect and shall
    be null and void, and the purported transferee of such Award
    shall not acquire any rights with respect to such Award.
    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Committee may in
    its sole and absolute discretion permit the Transfer of an Award
    to a Participant’s “family member” as such term
    is defined in the Form 8 Registration Statement under the
    Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under such terms and
    conditions as specified by the Committee. In such case, such
    Award shall be exercisable only by the transferee approved of by
    the Committee. To the extent that the Committee permits the
    Transfer of an Incentive Stock Option to a “family
    member”, so that such Option fails to continue to satisfy
    the requirements of an incentive stock option under the Code
    such Option shall automatically be re-designated as a
    Non-Qualified Stock Option.

 

    (h) Buyout and Settlement
    Provisions.  Except as prohibited in
    Section 6(d) of the Plan, the Committee may at any time on
    behalf of GEO offer to buy out any Awards previously granted
    based on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall
    determine which shall be communicated to the Participants at the
    time such offer is made.

 

    (i) Use of Proceeds.  The
    proceeds received by GEO from the sale of Common Stock pursuant
    to Awards granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds
    of GEO.

 

    (j) Modification or Substitution of an
    Award.  Subject to the terms and
    conditions of the Plan, the Committee may modify outstanding
    Awards. Notwithstanding the following, no modification of an
    Award shall adversely affect any rights or obligations of the
    Participant under the applicable Award Agreement without the
    Participant’s consent. The Committee in its sole and
    absolute discretion may rescind, modify, or waive any vesting
    requirements or other conditions applicable to an Award.
    Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the approval of the
    shareholders of GEO in accordance with applicable law, an Award
    may not be modified to reduce the exercise price thereof nor may
    an Award at a lower price be substituted for a surrender of an
    Award, provided that (i) the foregoing shall not apply to
    adjustments or substitutions in accordance with Section 5
    or Section 12, and (ii) if an Award is modified,
    extended or renewed and thereby deemed to be in issuance of a
    new Award under the Code or the applicable accounting rules, the
    exercise price of such Award may continue to be the original
    Exercise Price even if less than Fair Market Value of the Common
    Stock at the time of such modification, extension or renewal.
    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
    Section 15(j), unless provided for elsewhere in the Plan,
    there shall be no modification or substitution of an Award
    pursuant to this Section 15(j), to the extent such
    modification or substitution adversely affects the GEO unless
    such modification or substitution is: (A) approved by
    GEO’s shareholders; (B) required by any law or
    regulation of any governmental authority; (C) is in
    connection with death or Disability of a Participant;
    (D) is in connection with termination of employment or
    other service of a Participant; (E) in connection with
    Change in Control of GEO; or (F) in connection with an
    event described in Section 5(f) of the Plan.

 

    (k) Amendment and Termination of
    Plan.  The Board may, at any time and from
    time to time, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan as to any
    shares of Common Stock as to which Awards have not been granted;
    provided, however, that the approval of the shareholders
    of GEO in accordance with applicable law and the Articles of
    Incorporation and Bylaws of GEO shall be required for any
    amendment: (i) that changes the class of individuals
    eligible to receive

    

    12

 

    Awards under the Plan: (ii) that increases the maximum
    number of shares of Common Stock in the aggregate that may be
    subject to Awards that are granted under the Plan (except as
    permitted under Section 5 or Section 12 hereof):
    (iii) the approval of which is necessary to comply with
    federal or state law (including without limitation
    Section 162(m) of the Code and
    Rule 16b-3
    under the Exchange Act) or with the rules of any stock exchange
    or automated quotation system on which the Common Stock may be
    listed or traded; or (iv) that proposed to eliminate a
    requirement provided herein that the shareholders of GEO must
    approve an action to be undertaken under the Plan. Except as
    permitted under Section 5 or Section 12 hereof, no
    amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, without
    the consent of the holder of an Award, alter or impair rights or
    obligations under any Award theretofore granted under the Plan.
    Awards granted prior to the termination of the Plan may extend
    beyond the date the Plan is terminated and shall continue
    subject to the terms of the Plan as in effect on the date the
    Plan is terminated.

 

    (l) Section 409A of the
    Code.  With respect to Awards subject to
    Section 409A of the Code, this Plan is intended to comply
    with the requirements of such Section, and the provisions hereof
    shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements
    of such Section and the related regulations, and the Plan shall
    be operated accordingly. If any provision of this Plan or any
    term or condition of any Award would otherwise frustrate or
    conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition will
    be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict.

 

    (m) Notification of 83(b)
    Election.  If in connection with the grant
    of any Award, any Participant makes an election permitted under
    Code Section 83(b), such Participant must notify GEO in
    writing of such election within ten (10) days of filing
    such election with the Internal Revenue Service.

 

    (n) Detrimental
    Activity.  All Awards shall be subject to
    cancellation by the Committee in accordance with the terms of
    this Section 15(n) if the Participant engages in any
    Detrimental Activity. To the extent that a Participant engages
    in any Detrimental Activity at any time prior to, or during the
    one year period after, any exercise or vesting of an Award but
    prior to a Change in Control, the Company shall, upon the
    recommendation of the Committee, in its sole and absolute
    discretion, be entitled to (i) immediately terminate and
    cancel any Awards held by the Participant that have not yet been
    exercised,
    and/or
    (ii) with respect to Awards of the Participant that have
    been previously exercised, recover from the Participant at any
    time within two (2) years after such exercise but prior to
    a Change in Control (and the Participant shall be obligated to
    pay over to the Company with respect to any such Award
    previously held by such Participant): (A) with respect to
    any Options exercised, an amount equal to the excess of the Fair
    Market Value of the Common Stock for which any Option was
    exercised over the Exercise Price paid (regardless of the form
    by which payment was made) with respect to such Option;
    (B) with respect to any Award other than an Option, any
    shares of Common Stock granted and vested pursuant to such
    Award, and if such shares are not still owned by the
    Participant, the Fair Market Value of such shares on the date
    they were issued, or if later, the date all vesting restrictions
    were satisfied; and (C) any cash or other property (other
    than Common Stock) received by the Participant from the Company
    pursuant to an Award. Without limiting the generality of the
    foregoing, in the event that a Participant engages in any
    Detrimental Activity at any time prior to any exercise of an
    Award and the Company exercises its remedies pursuant to this
    Section 15(n) following the exercise of such Award, such
    exercise shall be treated as having been null and void, provided
    that the Company will nevertheless be entitled to recover the
    amounts referenced above.

 

    (o) Disclaimer of
    Rights.  No provision in the Plan, any
    Award granted hereunder, or any Award Agreement entered into
    pursuant to the Plan shall be construed to confer upon any
    individual the right to remain in the employ of or other service
    with the Company or to interfere in any way with the right and
    authority of the Company either to increase or decrease the
    compensation of any individual, including any holder of an
    Award, at any time, or to terminate any employment or other
    relationship between any individual and the Company. The grant
    of an Award pursuant to the Plan shall not affect or limit in
    any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments,
    reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or
    business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve or
    liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its
    business or assets.

 

    (p) Unfunded Status of
    Plan.  The Plan is intended to constitute
    an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred
    compensation. With respect to any payments as to which a
    Participant has a fixed and vested interest but which are not
    yet made to such Participant by the Company, nothing contained
    herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are
    greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

    

    13

 

 

    (q) Nonexclusivity of
    Plan.  The adoption of the Plan shall not
    be construed as creating any limitations upon the right and
    authority of the Board to adopt such other incentive
    compensation arrangements (which arrangements may be applicable
    either generally to a class or classes of individuals or
    specifically to a particular individual or individuals) as the
    Board in its sole and absolute discretion determines desirable.

 

    (r) Other Benefits.  No
    Award payment under the Plan shall be deemed compensation for
    purposes of computing benefits under any retirement plan of the
    Company or any agreement between a Participant and the Company,
    nor affect any benefits under any other benefit plan of the
    Company now or subsequently in effect under which benefits are
    based upon a Participant’s level of compensation.

 

    (s) Headings.  The section
    headings in the Plan are for convenience only; they form no part
    of this Agreement and shall not affect its interpretation.

 

    (t) Pronouns.  The use of
    any gender in the Plan shall be deemed to include all genders,
    and the use of the singular shall be deemed to include the
    plural and vice versa, wherever it appears appropriate from the
    context.

 

    (u) Successors and
    Assigns.  The Plan shall be binding on all
    successors of the Company and all successors and permitted
    assigns of a Participant, including, but not limited to, a
    Participant’s estate, devisee, or heir at law.

 

    (v) Severability.  If any
    provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined
    to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any
    jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall
    be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and
    all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other
    jurisdiction.

 

    (w) Notices.  Any
    communication or notice required or permitted to be given under
    the Plan shall be in writing, and mailed by registered or
    certified mail or delivered by hand, to GEO, to its principal
    place of business, attention: John J. Bulfin, General Counsel,
    The GEO Group Inc., and if to the holder of an Award, to the
    address as appearing on the records of the Company.

    “Cause” means, with respect to a

    misconduct, refusal to perform services (for any reason other
    than illness or incapacity) or materially unsatisfactory
    performance of the Participant’s duties for the Company;
    provided, however, that if the Participant and the
    Company have entered into an employment agreement or consulting
    agreement which defines the term Cause, the term Cause shall be
    defined in accordance with such agreement with respect to any
    Award granted to the Participant on or after the effective date

    “Change in Control” shall be deemed to
    occur upon:

 

			
	 	    (a)  
	
    any “person” as such term is used in

    of GEO representing thirty percent (30%) or more of the combined
    voting power of GEO’s then outstanding securities;

 

			
	 	    (b)

    Section) whose election by the Board or nomination for election
    by GEO’s shareholders was approved by a vote of at least
    two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were
    directors at the beginning of the two-year period or whose
    election or nomination for election was previously so approved,
    cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the
    Board;

 

			
	 	    (c)

    of GEO, and such liquidation occurs, or the consummation of the
    sale or disposition by GEO of all or substantially all of
    GEO’s assets other than (x) the sale or disposition of
    all or substantially all of the assets of GEO to a person or
    persons who beneficially own, directly or indirectly, at least
    fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the
    outstanding voting securities of GEO at the time of the sale or
    (y) pursuant to a spin-off type transaction, directly or
    indirectly, of such assets to the shareholders of GEO.

     1.2 Purchase Price. In consideration for the sale and transfer of the Acquired
Assets, the Buyer shall assume the Assumed Liabilities as provided in Section 1.1(c) and shall pay
to the Seller the aggregate amount of Three Million One Hundred Fifty Thousand US Dollars
(US$3,150,000) (the “Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 1.3. In
accordance with Section 1.5(b), at the Closing, the Purchase Price shall be delivered as follows:
(a) by wire transfer from the Buyer to the Seller in the amount of Two Million Seven Hundred Fifty
Thousand US Dollars (US$2,750,000); and (b) if applicable, execution and delivery by the Buyer of a
secured promissory note (the “Note”) in the amount of Four Hundred Thousand US Dollars
(US$400,000), together with interest thereon, which shall be in the form of Exhibit F attached
hereto and made a part hereof, and which shall be subordinated to the Buyer’s institutional lender
on terms satisfactory to such lender in its reasonable, sole discretion.

     1.3 Working Capital Adjustment.

          (a) For the purposes of this Section 1.3, the following words, terms and phrases shall have
the following meanings:

     “Closing Date Adjustment” shall mean the adjustment to the Purchase Price amount payable at
Closing, as determined pursuant to Section 1.3(b).

     “Net Working Capital” means the excess of (i) the current assets of the Business as of the
Closing Date over (ii) the current liabilities of the Business as of the Closing Date, all
determined in accordance with the Accounting Standards.

     “Target Working Capital” means Three Million US Dollars (US$3,000,000), as determined as of
the date of, and based on, the Latest Balance Sheet.

     “Working Capital Statement” means a statement setting forth the Net Working Capital of the
Business, which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards.

          (b) On the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer the Working Capital Statement certified
by Seller, including a certification of the Net Working Capital. Based on such Working Capital
Statement, an adjustment shall be made to the Purchase Price amount payable at Closing, as follows:

               (i) If the Net Working Capital amount set forth in the Working Capital Statement is greater
than the Target Working Capital, the Purchase Price payable at Closing shall be increased on a
dollar-for dollar basis by the amount of such excess, but only if Net Working Capital as set forth
in the Working Capital Statement exceeds the Target Working Capital by Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars
($25,000) (the “Adjustment Collar”) or more. Such excess amount shall be paid by Buyer at the
Closing by wire transfer.

7

 

               (ii) If the Net Working Capital amount set forth in the Working Capital Statement is less than
the Target Working Capital, the Purchase Price payable at Closing shall be decreased on a
dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of such deficit, but only if Net Working Capital as set forth
in the Working Capital Statement is less than the Target Working Capital by the Adjustment Collar
or more. The amount of such deficit shall be deducted from the cash portion of the Purchase Price
described in Section 1.2(a).

          (c) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare (in accordance with
the Accounting Standards) and deliver to Seller a balance sheet of the Business as of the close of
business on the Closing Date (“Buyer’s Balance Sheet”), which includes (i) a calculation of Net
Working Capital, (ii) any adjustment to the Purchase Price based on such calculation (the
“Post-closing Adjustment”), which adjustment shall be determined in the same manner prescribed
under Section 1.3(b), and (iii) the difference, if any, between the Post-closing Adjustment amount
and the Closing Date Adjustment amount. The calculations to be made pursuant to Sections
1.3(c)(ii) and (iii) above shall take into account that no Purchase Price Adjustment is to occur if
Net Working Capital is within the Adjustment Collar.

          (d) Seller shall be deemed to have accepted Buyer’s Balance Sheet and the Post-closing
Adjustment on the thirtieth (30th) day after delivery thereof if Seller does not give
Buyer written notice of its objection by the close of business on such day. If Seller does not
object to the Post-closing Adjustment within such thirty-day period, and the difference between the
Post-closing Adjustment amount and the Target Working Capital amount is equal to or greater than
Twenty-five Thousand US Dollars (US$25,000), then Seller shall pay to Buyer, or Buyer shall pay to
Seller, as applicable, the entire amount of the difference between the Post-closing Adjustment
amount and the Target Working Capital amount taking into account payments, if any, made pursuant to
the Closing Date Adjustment. Such amount shall be paid in cash or by wire transfer of immediately
available funds within thirty (30) days after the date of delivery of Buyer’s Balance Sheet to
Seller. The Parties agree that, in the event the difference between the Post-closing Adjustment
amount and the Target Working Capital amount, as reflected on Buyer’s Balance Sheet, is less than
Twenty-five Thousand US Dollars (US$25,000), no adjustment to the Purchase Price amount shall be
made hereunder.

          (e) If Seller objects to the Post-closing Adjustment, it shall notify Buyer in writing within
thirty (30) days following delivery of Buyer’s Balance Sheet to Seller, setting forth in specific
detail the bases for its objection and its proposal for any adjustments to the Post-closing
Adjustment. Buyer and Seller shall use their best efforts to reach agreement as to any proposed
adjustment or that no adjustment is necessary. If agreement is reached as to all proposed further
adjustments, the parties shall make such adjustments and the Post-closing Adjustment shall be based
thereon. If Buyer and Seller are unable to reach agreement within thirty (30) days, they shall
engage McCrory & McDowell LLC, having an address at One Riverfront Center, 20 Stanwix Street,

agreement with the position taken by Buyer or Seller or

days following the later of (i) the date of Seller’s acceptance of Buyer’s Balance Sheet or (ii)
the resolution of any adjustments to the Post-closing Adjustment amount by the Independent Auditor.
Thereafter, the Parties shall make consistent use of the allocation, fair market value and useful
lives agreed to by the Seller and the Buyer for all Tax purposes and in all filings, declarations
and reports with the U.S. IRS in respect thereof, including the reports required to be filed under
Section 1060 of the Code.

     1.6. Consents to Assignment. 

11

 

          (a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement shall not
constitute an attempt or agreement to assign or transfer any Assigned Contract or Permit, or any
claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom or to undertake to make a
Governmental Filing, if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof or an undertaking to make a
filing, which by its terms or under any Laws is nonassignable without the consent, approval or
acknowledgement of a third party thereto or of the issuing Governmental Entity, unless and until
such consent, approval or acknowledgment shall have been obtained. The Parties agree to use all
reasonable efforts and to cooperate and provide each other with reasonable assistance, to do all
thing necessary or appropriate to obtain such consents, approvals and acknowledgements so that all
right, title and interest of Seller with respect to the applicable asset or obligation shall be
novated or assigned to Buyer effective as of the Closing.

          (b) If such consent, approval, acknowledgement or filing (a “Deferred Consent”) is not
obtained at or prior to the Closing, or if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof would be
ineffective or would affect the rights thereunder so that the Buyer would not receive all such
rights from and as of the Closing, then, in each such case, (i) the Assigned Contract, Permit or
Governmental Filing to which such Deferred Consent relates (a “Deferred Item”) shall be excluded
from the definition of Acquired Assets (without any reduction in the Purchase Price) only for such
period of time until the such Deferred Consent shall have been obtained, (ii) from and after the
Closing, the Seller and the Buyer will cooperate, in all reasonable respects, to obtain such
Deferred Consent as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing, and (iii) until such Deferred
Consent is obtained, the Seller and the Buyer will cooperate, in all reasonable respects, to
provide to the Buyer, whether through a subcontracting arrangement or otherwise, the benefits under
the Deferred Item to which such Deferred Consent relates (with the Buyer entitled to all the gains
and responsible for all the losses, Taxes, liabilities and/or obligations thereunder). All such
Deferred Items shall be held by Seller for the benefit of Buyer and the covenants and obligations
thereunder shall be performed by Buyer in such Seller’s name and all benefits and obligations
existing thereunder shall be for Buyer’s account. Seller shall take or cause to be taken such
actions in its name or otherwise as Buyer may reasonably request so as to provide Buyer with the
benefits of the Deferred Item and to effect collection of money or other consideration that becomes
due and payable under the Deferred Item, and Seller shall promptly pay over to Buyer all money or
other consideration received by it in respect of all Deferred Items. As of and from the Closing
Date, Seller authorizes Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the
Deferred Items, to perform all the obligations and receive all the benefits of Seller under the
Deferred Items.

          (c) Each Party shall bear its own costs in connection with obtaining all Deferred Consents.
Neither Party shall have any obligation to make any economic concession to a third party as a
condition to obtaining a Deferred Consent.

          (d) Nothing in this Section 1.6 shall be deemed to affect, modify, or release Seller from its
obligations under Section 1.5(b)(xii)(A), the performance of which is a condition precedent to
Buyer’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, as set forth in Section 6.3
hereof.

12

 

     1.7 Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, as
and when requested by any Party hereto and at such Party’s expense, the other Party or Parties
shall promptly execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents,
instruments and certificates and shall take, or cause to be taken, all such further or other
actions as are necessary to evidence and effectuate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

17

 

          (a) The Seller has timely filed or had timely filed on its behalf all Tax Returns (as defined
below) that it was required to file (separately or as part of a consolidated, combined or unitary
group) and all such Tax Returns were true, correct and complete, except for any error or omission
that would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Seller is qualified as a foreign corporation and has timely filed all
required Tax Returns and annual reports, and has timely paid all required Taxes, in each United
States jurisdiction in which it has done business. The Seller has timely paid (or had timely paid
on its behalf) all Taxes (including, but not limited to, all sales taxes) that have become due and
payable for all periods covered by the Tax Returns and any interim payments which may have been
required under Law since the date of such Tax Returns, except where the failure to make such
payment would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Seller has not
received a written notice from a Governmental Entity, located in a United States jurisdiction where
the Seller does not file Tax Returns, claiming that the Business or Acquired Assets are subject to
taxation in such jurisdiction. Neither the IRS nor any other Governmental Entity is now asserting
or, to the Knowledge of the Seller, threatening to assert against the Seller any deficiency or
claim for additional Taxes or any adjustment of such Taxes. The Seller has withheld and paid all
Taxes required to have been withheld and paid in connection with any amounts paid (or deemed paid
for income Tax purposes) to any employee, independent contractor, creditor, stockholder or other
Person.

          (b) Except as set forth on Schedule 2.8(b), no audits or administrative or judicial Tax
proceedings are pending or being conducted with respect to the Seller. There is no dispute or
claim concerning any Taxes of Seller either (i) claimed or raised by any Governmental Entity in
writing or (ii) as to which any of the directors, officers or representatives of Seller,
respectively, have knowledge based upon personal contact with any agent of such Governmental
Entity.

          (c) Seller has not waived any statute of limitations in respect of Taxes or agreed to any
extension of time with respect to an assessment or deficiency for Taxes.

          (d) There are no Security Interests on the Acquired Assets that have arisen or could arise in
connection with any prior failure by Seller to pay any Tax. All Taxes that the Seller is or was
required by Laws to withhold or collect have been duly withheld or collected and, to the extent
required, have been paid to the proper Governmental Entity.

     2.9 Acquired Assets.

          (a) The Seller has and will have at Closing good and valid title to, a good and valid
leasehold interest in, or a good and valid license or right to use, as the case may be, all of the
Acquired Assets, free and clear of all Security Interests, except for Permitted Liens. Immediately
after the Closing, subject to obtaining the Deferred Consents, the Buyer will be the sole owner of
all of the Acquired Assets, free from any Security Interest, except for Permitted Liens. Except as
set forth on Schedule 2.9(a), the Acquired Assets comprise all of the assets that are used or
useful for the continued conduct of the Business by the Buyer after the Closing in the manner that
the Business is now being conducted by the Seller, except for the sale of inventory

18

 

and the disposition of other assets of the Business in the ordinary course and consistent with past
practices of the Business.

          (b) Schedule 2.9(b) contains a true, correct and complete listing of any Acquired Assets which
are located at sites other than sites occupied by Seller, including, but not limited to, domestic
or foreign sites owned or leased by contract manufacturers of Seller.

          (c) Except as noted in Schedule 2.9(c), as of the Effective Time, all of the Acquired Assets
shall be adequate for use, occupancy or operation by Buyer in the Business in the same manner that
Seller has used, occupied or operated such Acquired Assets in its operation of the Business for the
immediately preceding twelve (12) months.

          (d) All the Acquired Assets of Seller are in good operating order, condition and repair,
except for routine maintenance in the ordinary course of business.

     2.10 Undisclosed Liabilities. Except to the extent (i) reflected or reserved against
in the Latest Balance Sheet, (ii) incurred in the ordinary course of business after the date of the
Latest Balance Sheet (none of which results from, arises out of, relates to, is in the nature of,
or was caused by any breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort, infringement, or violation of
law) or (iii) described on Schedule 2.10, Seller does not have any Liabilities in respect of the
Business, other than performance obligations with respect to contracts of Seller that would not be
required to be reflected or reserved against on a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP or
in the footnotes thereto.

     2.11 Environmental Matters. Seller has materially complied with all Environmental
Laws applicable to the Business, and no action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge,
complaint, claim, demand or notice has been filed or commenced against Seller alleging any failure
to so comply. Seller has obtained and is in compliance with all permits, licenses and other
authorizations required pursuant to Environmental Laws for the occupation of the Real Property and

Employees, only to the extent such obligations and liabilities arise out of employment with the
Seller and are attributable to any period on or before the Closing Date (collectively, the “Seller
Employee Obligations”); provided, however, that such Seller Employee Obligations shall not include
accrued and unused vacation, holiday, personal and/or sickness days of the Hired Employees earned
while in the employ of the Seller (it being understood that such items are addressed in Section 4.2
above and are hereby deemed to be Buyer Employee Obligations (as defined below)). The manner in
which the Seller performs and discharges the Seller Employee Obligations shall be within the
Seller’s sole discretion. As of the Closing Date, the Buyer shall be solely and exclusively
responsible for the performance and discharge of all employment-related obligations and liabilities
(including, but not limited to, workers’ compensation and occupational disease benefits, salaries,
wages, bonuses, federal, state and local income taxes, social security, Medicare and other similar
or dissimilar federal, state or local payroll taxes, vacation days, leave time, health and welfare
benefits, including retiree medical benefits, compliance with COBRA and all Laws concerning health
and safety requirements, employment and employment practices, and wages and hours) relating to the
Hired Employees only to the extent such obligations and liabilities arise out of employment with
the Buyer and to the extent such obligation and liabilities are attributable to any period
following the Closing Date (the “Buyer Employee Obligations”). The manner in which the Buyer
performs and discharges the Buyer Employee Obligations shall be within the Buyer’s sole discretion.

          (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Article IV or as otherwise required by applicable
Law, each Hired Employee shall cease to participate in or accrue further benefits under the
Business Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing.

     4.4 No Transfer of Assets. The Seller will not make any transfer of pension or other
employee benefit plan assets to the Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to applicable
Laws and the terms of the Business Benefit Plans, the Hired Employees shall be entitled to rollover
or transfer their account balances in a tax qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the
Seller to a tax-qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Buyer; provided, however,
that such transfer or rollover shall be in cash or cash and the promissory note evidencing the
Hired Employee’s obligation under an outstanding participant loan.

     4.5 Severance Payments. The Seller shall be solely liable for any severance payments
required to be made to the Seller Retained Employees or Hired Employees arising out of their
employment (or the termination of their employment) by Seller.

30

 

     4.6 Certain Non Competition Agreements with Seller Retained Employees. From and after
the Closing date, Seller shall reasonably assist and cooperate with Buyer, at Buyer’s sole cost and
expense, in enforcing the terms of any existing noncompetition agreements Seller has entered into
with Seller Retained Employees. Seller shall not waive or forbear from exercising, any right it
may have under such agreements.

ARTICLE V

COVENANTS

     5.1 Access to Information; Record Retention; Cooperation.

          (a) Access to Information. Following the Closing, each of the Buyer and the Seller
shall afford to each other and to its authorized accountants, counsel and other designated
representatives, during normal business hours, in a manner so as to not unreasonably interfere with
the conduct of business, (i) reasonable access and duplicating rights to all non-privileged
records, books, contracts, instruments, documents, correspondence, computer data and other data and
information (collectively, “Information”) within the possession or control of such Party relating
to the Business, and (ii) reasonable access to the personnel of such Party. Requests may only be
made under this Section 5.1(a) for financial reporting and accounting matters, preparing financial
statements, preparing and filing of any Tax Returns, prosecuting any claims for refund, defending
any Tax claims or assessment, preparing securities law or securities exchange filings, prosecuting,
defending or settling any litigation or insurance claim, performing obligations under this
Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and all other proper business purposes.

          (b) Reimbursement. A Party making Information or personnel available to another Party
under Section 5.1 shall be entitled to receive from such other Party, upon the presentation of
invoices therefor, reimbursement of reasonable costs for supplies, disbursements and other
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by a Party in making such Information or personnel available
without any profit or mark-up; provided, however, that no such reimbursements shall
be required for the salary or cost of fringe benefits or similar expenses pertaining to employees
of the providing Party.

          (c) Retention of Records. Except as may otherwise be required by Law or agreed to in
writing by the Parties, each Party shall preserve, until four (4) years after the Closing Date, all
Information in its possession or control pertaining to the Business prior to the Closing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of retaining any specific Information, any Party may offer
in writing to the other Party or Parties to deliver such Information to the other Party or Parties,
and if such offer is not accepted within ninety (90) days of the giving thereof, the offered
Information may be disposed of at any time.

          (d) Confidentiality. Each Party shall hold, and shall use reasonable commercial
efforts to cause their respective parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, consultants and advisors to
hold, in strict confidence, all Information concerning the other furnished to it by the other Party
or Parties or their representatives pursuant to this Section 5.1 (except to the extent that such
Information (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of any
action or inaction by the receiving Party, (ii) was within the possession of the receiving Party

31

 

prior to it being furnished to the receiving Party by or on behalf of the disclosing Party pursuant
hereto, provided that the source of such information was not bound by a confidentiality agreement
with or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to any person or entity
with respect to such information, (iii) is or becomes available on a non-confidential basis to the
receiving Party from a source other than the disclosing Party, provided that the source of such
information was not bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other contractual, legal or
fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to any person or entity with respect to such Information),
and each Party shall not release or disclose such Information to any other person, except its
auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and other consultants and advisors, unless
compelled to disclose such Information by judicial or administrative process or by other
requirements of Law or so as not to violate the rules of any stock exchange; provided,
however, that in the case of disclosure compelled by judicial or administrative process or
otherwise required by Law, the receiving Party shall (to the extent permitted by applicable Laws)
notify the disclosing Party promptly of the request and the documents requested thereby so that the
disclosing Party may, at its sole cost and expense, seek an appropriate protective order or other
appropriate remedy. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a
waiver hereunder, a Party is, in the written opinion of its counsel, compelled to disclose any
Information to any tribunal or other entity or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other
censure or penalty, such Party may so disclose the Information without liability hereunder;
provided, however, that such Party gives written notice to the other Party of the
Information to be disclosed (including copies of the relevant portions of the relevant documents)
as far in advance of its disclosure as is practicable, uses all reasonable efforts to limit any
such disclosure to the precise terms of such requirement, and cooperates with the disclosing Party
to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment
will be accorded to such Information by the tribunal or other entity.

     5.2 Web Site Content. The Seller and the Buyer shall cooperate and the Seller shall
provide to the Buyer for inclusion in its web site, as promptly as practicable following the
Closing, all text, images and other content contained in all web sites to the extent relating to
the Business maintained by the Seller.

     5.3 Conduct of Business Until Closing. Except as the Buyer may otherwise consent to
or approve in writing on and after the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date with respect to
the Business (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Seller
agrees (in respect of the Business):

          (a) not to enter into discussions or enter into any agreements or understandings relating to
the disposition of any part of the Acquired Assets, other than in the ordinary course of business;

          (b) (i) to conduct the Business in all material respects in the ordinary course of business,
(ii) to use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve its existing business relationships
relating to the Business, (iii) to maintain the Acquired Assets in substantially the condition
currently existing, normal wear and tear excepted, (iv) maintain levels of Inventory as such levels
have been maintained in the ordinary course of business to satisfy anticipated future

32

 

customer demand; and (v) and to handle any and all Warranty Claims in a normal and customary manner
consistent with past practice;

          (c) neither to (i) enter into or amend in any material respect any Assigned Contract (except
to the extent necessary to obtain the consents for transfer contemplated by this Agreement); nor
(ii) except in the ordinary course of business, sell, lease, or grant any option to sell or lease,
give a security interest in or otherwise create any Security Interest (other than a Permitted Lien)
on any part of the Acquired Assets;

          (d) not to (i) make any material change in the terms of any Business Benefit Plans, except to
the extent required to maintain compliance with an applicable Law, or (ii) adopt or create any

authority), with respect to the Acquired Assets;

          (f) not to change the terms or conditions of employment, including, but not limited to,
compensation and severance arrangements, for any of the Potential Employees, except in the ordinary
course of business;

          (g) not to incur or agree to incur any liability or obligation or enter into any agreement or
transaction that cannot be cancelled upon not more than thirty (30) days notice;

          (h) not to make any capital expenditures outside the ordinary course of business;

          (i) not to waive or release any rights with respect to the Acquired Assets;

          (j) not to change its methods of accounting with respect to the Business;

          (k) not to accelerate orders or sales, offer any special terms, discounts or purchase programs
(including by providing credit terms outside the ordinary course of business) to customers or
suppliers, or accelerate the collection of any receivables;

          (l) not to take any other action (A) which would result in a Material Adverse Effect or the
Acquired Assets or (B) which, if taken prior to the date hereof, would constitute a breach of any
representation or warranty contained in Article II of this Agreement.

          (m) not to enter into any agreement (conditional or otherwise) to do any of the actions
prohibited or restricted by any of the foregoing.

     5.4 Access Pending Closing. Seller shall, at all reasonable times prior to Closing,
make its plants, properties, Books and Records (in respect of the Business), and the Active
Employees available during normal business hours to the Buyer, its representatives, financial
advisors, lenders and auditors, and furnish or cause to be furnished to such persons during such
period all such information and data concerning the same or such additional financial and

33

 

operating data related to the Business as such persons may reasonably request. Subject to the
Seller’s prior consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Buyer
shall be permitted to take copies or extracts from any Books and Records or other information and
data furnished hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, Seller may limit access (including, but not
limited to, access to the Active Employees) to the extent it reasonably deems necessary to avoid
unreasonable disruption of the Business and Seller’s other operations. Seller will reasonably
cooperate with Buyer in contacting vendors, dealers, customers and such other Persons as Buyer and
its representatives may desire to contact in connection with its investigation of the Business;
provided, however, that in no event shall any such contact occur without the prior consultation
with, approval of and participation by Seller.

     5.5 Employees. Seller shall permit Buyer to discuss the possibility of employment
with the Potential Employees.

     5.6 Taxes. Seller shall pay all Taxes arising from the sale of the Acquired Assets
pursuant hereto, including, but not limited to, Taxes arising pursuant to bulk sales laws, if
applicable.

     5.7 Supplemental Disclosure. Seller shall prior to Closing have the continuing
obligation to promptly supplement or amend the Disclosure Schedule with respect to any matter
hereafter arising or discovered which, if existing or known at the date of this Agreement, would
have been required to be set forth or described in the Disclosure Schedule; provided, however, that
for the purpose of the rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder, any such supplemental or
amended disclosure shall not without the express written consent of Buyer (which consent may be
withheld in its sole discretion) be deemed to: (i) modify the representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements hereunder of Seller, or the Disclosure Schedule; (ii) modify any of the
conditions set forth in Article VI; (iii) cure or prevent any such inaccuracy or failure; or (iv)
limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder or otherwise to Buyer, except, in each
case, to the extent Buyer elects to consummate the Closing.

     5.8 Restrictive Covenants. Seller acknowledges and agrees that it is making the
covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 5.8 in recognition of the following: (i) that in
the course of owning and operating the Business, Seller acquired, created and developed —  and
consequently possesses — substantial knowledge and information of a proprietary and/or
confidential nature regarding the Business, including without limitation, customer and supplier
information and contacts, technical knowledge and expertise, financial information, data, forecasts
and projections, and market analyses; (ii) that Buyer will not be able to realize the benefits of
its purchase of the Business without the covenants and agreements of Seller set forth in this
Section 5.8, and (iii) that the covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 5.8 are intended
as a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and to
consummate the transactions contemplated herein and therein.

          (a) Non-Competition. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 5.8(a), during the
period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the second (2nd) anniversary thereof (the
“Restriction Period”), the Seller shall not (i) engage, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the
world, in any business that competes with the Business; or (ii) own an interest in, manage,

34

 

operate, join, control or participate in or be associated with as a partner, member, shareholder,
co-venturer, employee, director, officer, agent, consultant, lender or otherwise, any other person
or entity that competes with the Business, provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall
prohibit the Seller from acquiring an entity (or all or a portion of its assets) which may be
engaged in a business that competes with the Business, so long as, upon consummation of the
acquisition of such competing business, Seller shall cause such acquired business to comply with,
and promptly cease (but in any event within sixty (60) days after delivery of written notice by
Buyer therefor) any activities which conflict with, the restrictions set forth in this Section
5.8(a) for the duration of the Restriction Period. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5.8(a), Seller shall be permitted to engage in,
and Seller shall not be in breach of this Section 5.8(a) by engaging in the provision of any one or
more of the following services except to the extent that such services are directly related to
the Business: (a) IP services, including VoIP, IP video and IP service testing, (b) data
correlation and analysis services, (c) fault identification services, and (d) dispatch services.

          (b) No Hire/Non-Solicitation Covenants. During the Restriction Period, the Seller
shall not and shall not assist any other person, anywhere in the world, directly or indirectly, for
its own account or for the account of any other person or entity, solicit to hire any natural
person employed by or otherwise engaged to perform services for the Buyer, including, but not
limited to, the Hired Employees, or induce or attempt to induce any such person to terminate their
employment or business arrangement and/or relationship with Buyer. Additionally, Seller shall not
be an equity holder, investor (except as an investor holding not more than one percent (1%) of the
capital stock or securities of a publically held company) lender, partner, consultant or
representative of any person engaging in or attempting to engage in any of the foregoing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have the right to place general solicitations for
employment (such as “help wanted” ads) and to hire any person (including any of Buyer’s employees
or any Hired Employees) who respond to such general solicitations, so long as such solicitations
are not specifically targeted to Buyer’s employees or the Hired Employees.

          (c) Restrictions on Solicitations of Customers. During the Restricted Period, Seller shall
not directly or indirectly solicit, divert, take away, or attempt to divert or take away, from
Buyer any of the business or patronage of any of its customers, clients, accounts, vendors, or
suppliers, and Seller shall not assist any other Person to do so, or be a proprietor, equityholder,
investor (except as an investor holding not more than 1% of the capital stock or other securities
of a publicly held company), lender, partner, director, officer, employee, consultant, or
representative of any Person who does or attempts to do so.

          (d) Remedies. In accordance with Section 8.10 of this Agreement, the Seller
acknowledges and agrees that the Buyer would experience substantial and irreparable harm as a
result of any breach of this Section 5.8 and, in addition to any other rights and remedies the
Buyer may have at law or in equity, Buyer shall be entitled to an order of specific performance,
injunction, restraining order or such other interim or permanent equitable relief (without the
requirement to post bond) restraining a breaching party from committing any violation of the
covenants and obligations contained in this Section 5.8.

35

 

          (e) If any provision of this Section 5.8 shall be adjudged to be excessively broad as to
duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, or are held to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or
against public policy or held to be otherwise unenforceable, the Parties hereto intend that such
provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum degree necessary to make such provision valid and
enforceable under applicable Laws and that such modified provision shall thereafter be enforced to
the fullest extent possible.

          (f) Anything in this Section 5.8 to the contrary notwithstanding, Seller shall have the
unfettered right to sell to any third party (including competitors of the Business) such portions
of the Business not acquired by Buyer hereunder without being in violation of the terms of this
Section 5.8.

     5.9 Names. No more than thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, Seller shall
discontinue its use of all names set forth in Schedule 5.9, or words similar thereto and shall file
any such instruments necessary to terminate Seller’s rights to such names and/or to transfer
ownership of the same to Buyer.

     5.10 Exclusive Dealing. Unless this Agreement is terminated by either Party pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement, Seller will not:

          (a) solicit or initiate discussions or engage in negotiations with any Person other than Buyer
(whether or not such discussions are initiated by Seller), with respect to the possible acquisition
of the Business or the Acquired Assets by such Person (whether by merger, purchase of capital
stock, purchase of assets, consolidation or otherwise);

          (b) provide any information with respect to the Business or the Acquired Assets to any Person
other than Buyer relating to the possible acquisition of the Business or the Acquired Assets by
such Person (whether by merger, purchase of capital stock, purchase of assets, consolidation or
otherwise); or

          (c) enter into a transaction with any Person other than Buyer concerning the possible
acquisition of the Business or the Acquired Assets by such Person (whether by merger, purchase of
capital stock, purchase of assets, consolidation or otherwise).

     5.11 Oracle and Express Manufacturing Agreement(s). Following the date of execution
of this Agreement, the Operating Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist
and cooperate with Buyer in obtaining agreements in Buyer’s name (i) with Oracle USA, Inc.
(“Oracle”) with respect to the same licensing matters set forth in (a) that certain Oracle
PartnerNetwork Agreement, dated July 10, 2008, and (b) that certain Embedded Software License

Company, and (ii) with Express Manufacturing Incorporated with respect to the same matters set
forth in that certain Turnkey Manufacturing Services Agreement, dated as of August 15, 2003, by and

foregoing, the Operating Company shall not be required to incur any direct, out-of-pocket costs in
connection with Buyer entering into such agreements.

warranties and covenants made by the Buyer in this Agreement, in any certificate delivered at the
Closing by the Buyer to the Seller in connection with this Agreement, or any transfer instrument or

     7.3 Third Party Claims; Procedure. 

          (a) Indemnified Parties. As used in this Article VII, the term “Indemnified Party”
shall mean any Seller Indemnified Party or any Buyer Indemnified Party, as the case may be, which
is asserting a claim for indemnity pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 of this Agreement (an
“Indemnity Claim”). Any Party against which an Indemnity Claim is asserted by an Indemnified Party
pursuant to this Article VII is referred to herein as an “Indemnifying Party.” In the event that a
party that is not a Buyer Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party (a “Third Party”) asserts
any Claims or seeks to collect any Claim from an Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), such
Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice to the Indemnifying Party of such event (a
“Third Party Claim Notice”). A Third Party Claim Notice shall specify, to the extent known by the
Indemnified Party, the nature of and specific basis for any Third Party Claims or the nature of and
specific basis of any suit, action, investigation or proceeding set forth therein, the amount or
the good faith estimated amount thereof to the extent then practicable, and the basis of the
Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the failure of the Indemnified Party to provide a Third Party Claim Notice shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnity obligations, except to the extent such failure
prejudices the Indemnifying Party.

          (b) Third Party Claims; Procedure. In the event that any Indemnified Party seeks
indemnification hereunder based on a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right
(without prejudice to the right of the Indemnified Party to employ separate counsel at its own
expense and to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and in any compromise,
settlement or strategic decision relating thereto) to control the defense or prosecution of such
Third Party Claim at its own expense through counsel of its own choosing if the Indemnifying Party
gives notice thereof to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Third
Party Claim Notice, or such shorter time period as required so that the interests of the
Indemnified Party would not be materially prejudiced as a result of the failure to have received
such notice (the “Election Period”). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Indemnified Party
is hereby authorized during the Election Period to file any motion, answer or other pleading that
shall be necessary or appropriate to protect its rights or the rights of the Indemnifying Party.
If (i) the Election Period expires, or (ii) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party
during the Election Period that the Indemnifying Party does not elect to defend or prosecute the
Third Party Claim for which the Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder,
then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled prosecute or defend the Third Party Claim and recover
from the Indemnifying Party all of the reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorney’s fees) associated therewith.

          (c) Cooperation. The Parties agree to cooperate with one another and their respective
counsel in contesting and defending any Third Party Claim in any manner the other Party may
reasonably request (including furnishing evidence and testimony, and granting reasonable access to
the pertinent books, records and personnel (to the extent such personnel are available) in their
possession or control) so as to not expose the other Party to undue risk of loss

40

 

or, if appropriate and related to the Claim in question, in making (i) any counterclaim against the
Third Party asserting the Claims, or (ii) any cross complaint against any Person.

          (d) No Settlement. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.3 to the contrary, the
Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (i) settle or compromise any
Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such Third Party Claim
that does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the execution and delivery by the Third
Party claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a written release from all liability in
respect to such Third Party Claim, or (ii) settle or compromise any Third Party Claim in any manner
that may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party.

     7.4 Direct Claims. In the event that the Indemnified Party has a Claim, including an
Indemnity Claim hereunder, that does not involve a Third Party Claim, or knowledge of facts that
could give rise to such a Claim, the Indemnified Party shall transmit to the Indemnifying Party a
written notice (the “Direct Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the Claim,
the amount or the good faith estimated amount thereof to the extent then practicable, and the basis
for the request for indemnification under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
failure of the Indemnified Party to provide a Direct Claim Notice shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party of its indemnity obligations, except to the extent such failure prejudices the
Indemnifying Party or to the extent such Direct Claim Notice is not timely pursuant to Section 7.5
hereof. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days
after delivery of the Direct Claim Notice that it disputes such Indemnity Claim, the Indemnity
Claims specified in the Direct Claim Notice will be deemed payable by the Indemnifying Party
hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed such Indemnity Claim, the Parties shall
negotiate in good faith for a thirty (30) day period after receipt of the Direct Claim Notice to
resolve such Indemnity Claim. If no resolution is reached within such thirty (30) day period, the
dispute regarding the Indemnity Claim shall be resolved by litigation in a court of competent
jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, (i) the provisions of this Section 7.4 shall
have no effect on the right of any party to seek injunctive or other equitable remedy and the
provisions of this Section 7.4 shall have no application in such instance and (ii) the provisions
of this Section 7.4 shall have no effect on Buyer’s right to exercise its rights of set off under
the express terms of the Note.

     7.5 Survival of Representations and Warranties and Time Limitation on Indemnification.
All of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing
and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for a period of eighteen
(18) months, except in the case of (A) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections
2.1, 2.2., the first two sentences of 2.9(a), 2.20, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.6, which shall survive
forever, and (B) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.8, 2.10, 2.11, 2.17,
2.23 and 2.24, which shall survive for thirty (30) days beyond the applicable statute of
limitations established by law. Any assertion by any Indemnified Party that an Indemnifying Party
is liable for indemnification under the terms of this Article VII must be made in writing and must
be given to the Indemnifying Party on or prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period
hereunder.

41

 

     7.6 Limitation on Indemnity. 

          (a) Indemnity Basket. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, the Parties acknowledge and agree that an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to an
Indemnified Party in respect of any Indemnity Claim made pursuant to Sections 7.1 or 7.2 hereunder
until the amount of Claims comprising the Indemnity Claim(s), individually or in the aggregate,
exceeds Ten Thousand US Dollars (US$10,000) (the “Indemnity Basket”), provided, however, that if
such Indemnity Claims exceed the Indemnity Basket, an Indemnifying Party shall be liable and the
Indemnified Party may recover for all such Claims in excess of the Indemnity Basket, subject to the
Indemnity Cap (as defined in Section 7.6(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties hereby
agree that any Indemnity Claim which arises out of or relates to a breach by Seller of its
obligations to make payments of amounts received by Seller on Buyer’s behalf pursuant to Section
1.6 or Pre-closing Warranty Claims in excess of Six Hundred Thirty-eight Thousand Four Hundred
Seventy-two US Dollars ($638,472) shall not be subject to the Indemnity Basket. The Indemnifying
Party shall be liable to the Indemnified Party for the entire amount of any Indemnity Claim which
arises out of or relates to a breach by Seller of its obligations to make payments of amounts
received by Seller on Buyer’s behalf pursuant to Section 1.6 or Pre-closing Warranty Claims in
excess of Six Hundred Thirty-eight Thousand Four Hundred Seventy-two US Dollars ($638,472).

          (b) Indemnity Cap. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, except as otherwise
provided in the last sentence of this paragraph, (i) in no event shall Seller ever be required to
indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties for Indemnity Claims made pursuant to Section 7.2(a) of
this Agreement in any amount exceeding an aggregate of thirty-five percent (35%) of the Purchase
Price, and (ii) in no event shall Buyer ever be required to indemnify the Seller Indemnified
Parties for Indemnity Claims made pursuant to Section 7.1(a) of this Agreement in any amount
exceeding Fifteen Percent (15%) of the Purchase Price (each, an “Indemnity Cap”). Each Party
agrees to use its best efforts to mitigate any Claim. Whenever an Indemnifying Party is required
to indemnify and hold harmless an Indemnified Party from and against, or to reimburse an
Indemnified Party for, a Claim, such Indemnifying Party will, subject to the provisions of this
Article VII, pay the Indemnified Party the amount of such Claim, reduced by the net proceeds of any
insurance policy or any Tax benefits realized by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Claim.
The Parties hereby agree that any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be
treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Parties agree that the Indemnity Cap shall not apply in the case of any Indemnity
Claim that arises out of or relates to (w) the breach of, or the failure to perform or satisfy any
of, the representations, warranties or covenants made in Sections 1.6 (but only with respect to
Seller’s obligations to make payments of amounts received by Seller on Buyer’s behalf pursuant to
such Section 1.6), 2.8, the first two sentences of 2.9(a), 2.11 or 2.17, (x) an act or omission (or
series of acts or omissions) which constitutes fraud or willful concealment; (y) a Permitted Lien,
or (z) an Excluded Liability.

     7.7 Scope of Representations and Warranties of the Parties. Except as and to the
extent expressly set forth in this Agreement (together with the schedules attached hereto and the
items delivered pursuant to this Agreement) and/or the Ancillary Documents, the Parties make no
representations or warranties whatsoever, and disclaim all liability and responsibility for any

42

 

representation, warranty, statement made or information communicated (orally or in writing) to
the other Party including, but not limited to, any opinion, information or advice that many have
been provided to any Party by any officer, stockholder, director, employee, advisor, legal counsel
or any other agent, consultant or representative of such Party.

     7.8 No Consequential or Special Damages; No Multiplier.  

          (a) The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify or
hold harmless the Buyer Indemnified Parties, or any of them, for consequential damages, special
damages, incidental damages, punitive damages, lost profits, unrealized expectations or other
similar items, nor shall any damages be calculated using a “multiplier” or any other similar method
having a similar effect.

          (b) In determining the foregoing thresholds and in otherwise determining the amount of any
Indemnity Claims for which any Indemnified Party is entitled to assert a Claim for indemnification
hereunder, the amount of any such Indemnity Claims shall be determined after deducting therefrom
the amount of any insurance proceeds and other third party recoveries actually received by such
Indemnified Party in respect of such Indemnity Claims and the amount of any tax benefit related
thereto. If an indemnification payment is received by any Indemnified Party, and such Indemnified
Party later receives insurance proceeds, other third party recoveries or tax benefits in respect of
the related Indemnity Claims, such Indemnified Party shall immediately pay to the Indemnifying
Party a sum equal to the lesser of (a) the actual amount of such insurance proceeds, other third
party recoveries and tax benefits, or (b) the actual amount of the indemnification payment
previously paid by the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Losses.

     7.9 Exclusive Remedy. Except in the case of fraud or willful concealment,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer and Seller agree that
following the Closing, their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any Losses under this
Agreement shall be in accordance with, and limited by the provisions set forth in this Article VII.
