Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Offering of Notes
On October 3, 2013, The GEO Group, Inc. ("GEO") completed the previously announced issuance of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5
7
/
8
% senior notes due 2022 (the "Notes") in a private offering under the Indenture dated as of October 3, 2013 (the
"Indenture") among GEO, certain of its domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors (the "Guarantors"), and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee. The Notes were offered and sold to "qualified institutional buyers"
in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulations S under the Securities Act. The Notes were issued at a
coupon rate and yield to maturity of 5
7
/
8
%. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on January 15 and
July 15, commencing on January 15, 2014. The Notes mature on January 15, 2022.
Up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes
may be redeemed on or prior to January 15, 2016, with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 105.875% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any, owing
under the Registration Rights Agreement referred to below ("Liquidated Damages") to the redemption date. In addition, GEO may, at its option, redeem the Notes in whole or in part before January 15, 2017 at a redemption price equal to
100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus a "make-whole" premium, together with accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the redemption date.
On or after January 15, 2017, GEO may, at its option, redeem all or part of the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at the
redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest and including Liquidated Damages, if any, on the Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the 12-month
period beginning on January 15 of the years indicated below:
Year
Percentage
2017
104.406
%
2018
102.938
%
2019
101.469
%
2020 and thereafter
100.000
%
If there is a "change of control" (as defined in the Indenture), holders of the Notes will have the right to cause
GEO to repurchase their Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the purchase date.
The Notes and the guarantees are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of GEO and the Guarantors. The Notes rank equally in right of payment with any
unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness of GEO and the Guarantors, including GEO's 6.625% senior notes due 2021 and the 5
1
/
8
% senior
notes due 2023 and the guarantors' guarantees thereof, senior in right of payment to any future indebtedness of GEO and the Guarantors that is expressly subordinated to the Notes and the guarantees, effectively junior to any secured
indebtedness of GEO and the Guarantors, including indebtedness under GEO's senior credit facility, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and structurally junior to all obligations of GEO's subsidiaries that
are not Guarantors.
2
The Indenture contains covenants which, among other things, limit the ability of GEO and its "restricted
subsidiaries" (as defined in the Indenture) to incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock, make dividend payments or other restricted payments (other than distributions or actions necessary to maintain GEO's status as a real
estate investment trust), create liens, sell assets, engage in sale and lease back transactions, create or permit restrictions on the ability of the restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to GEO, enter into transactions
with affiliates, and enter into mergers, consolidations or sales of all or substantially all of their assets. These covenants are subject to a number of limitations and exceptions as set forth in the Indenture.
The Indenture also contains events of default with respect to, among other things, the following: failure by GEO to pay interest and Liquidated Damages, if
any, on the Notes when due, which failure continues for 30 days; failure by GEO to pay the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes when due; failure by GEO or any of its restricted subsidiaries to comply with their obligations to offer to
repurchase the Notes at the option of the holders of the Notes upon a change of control, to offer to redeem notes under certain circumstances in connection with asset sales with "excess proceeds" (as defined in the Indenture) in excess of
$25.0 million or to observe certain restrictions on mergers, consolidations and sales of substantially all of their assets; the failure by GEO or any Guarantor to comply with any of the other agreements in the Indenture, which failure continues for
60 days after notice; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency of GEO or a restricted subsidiary that is a significant subsidiary or any group of restricted subsidiaries that together would constitute a significant subsidiary.
The foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 4.1.
GEO intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on hand, to fund the repurchase, redemption or other discharge of any and all of the
7
3
/
4
% senior notes and to pay related transaction fees and expenses.
A copy of the press release announcing the closing of the offering of the Notes is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
Registration Rights
Under the terms of the Registration
Rights Agreement, dated as of October 3, 2013, among GEO, the Guarantors and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as the representative of the initial purchasers of the notes (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), GEO has agreed to register
under the Securities Act notes having terms identical in all material respects to the Notes (the "Exchange Notes") and to make an offer to exchange the Exchange Notes for the Notes. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights
Agreement, GEO has agreed to file a registration statement with respect to an offer to exchange the Exchange Notes for the Notes on or prior to 75 days after the closing of the offering of the Notes and to use its reasonable best efforts to have the
registration statement declared effective on or prior to 180 days after the closing of the offering of the Notes. If GEO fails to satisfy certain filing and other obligations described in the Registration Rights Agreement, GEO will be obligated to
pay additional interest of 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period and an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period thereafter, until GEO's registration obligations are fulfilled, up to a maximum of
1.00% per annum.
The foregoing is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as
Exhibit 10.1.
