Robbins Umeda LLP has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by members of the Board of Directors of Cornell Companies ("Cornell" or the Company") (NYSE:CRN). Robbins Umeda LLP's investigation concerns actions taken by the Company's fiduciaries in connection with them causing Cornell to enter into a definitive merger agreement with The GEO Group ("GEO") (NYSE:GEO). If the transaction is completed, Cornell shareholders have the option to elect to receive either: (i) 1.3 shares of GEO common stock for each share of Cornell common stock; or (ii) an amount of cash consideration equal to the greater of (a) the fair market value of one share of GEO common stock plus $6.00, or (b) the fair market value of 1.3 shares of GEO common stock. The transaction implies a value of $24.96 per Cornell share. The companies expect the merger to close in the third quarter of 2010.

Robbins Umeda LLP's investigation concerns whether Cornell's Board of Directors undertook a fair process to obtain fair consideration for all shareholders of Cornell.
