fiscal year was 50% of his base salary. Wackenhut's board of directors approved
the payment of an additional bonus in the amount of $218,552 to Richard R.
Wackenhut for the 2001 fiscal year, due to the fact that Wackenhut exceeded its
budget for operating results during that period. The employment agreement also
provides for certain benefits to Richard R. Wackenhut, including life and health
insurance, an automobile allowance and other benefits generally available to
executive officers.

If Wackenhut terminates Richard R. Wackenhut's employment for any reason at any
time other than death, or if he elects to terminate his employment for "good
reason," as defined in his employment agreement, he will be entitled to the
following: (1) a special termination lump sum payment equal to the number of
years remaining under the employment agreement multiplied by the sum of his
annual salary at the time of the termination, or if greater, his annual salary
in effect for the calendar year prior to the date of termination and the greater
of the annual bonus he received during the preceding calendar year or the
largest bonus he would have received if his termination had not occurred
(assuming all targets were met, regardless of actual results); (2) the
continuation of his employee benefits for the remainder of the term of the
employment agreement; (3) immediate vesting of awards granted pursuant to
Wackenhut's Key Employee Long-Term Incentive Stock Plan and other stock options
or other interests he has in Wackenhut's securities, without regard to
restrictions on restricted stock and performance targets with respect to
performance units or shares; (4) all of Wackenhut's interest in any automobile
used by Richard R. Wackenhut and the payment of the balance of any outstanding
loan or lease on such automobile; (5) the present value of all cash payments
pursuant to the amended Retirement Agreement (as described under "Senior Officer
Retirement Plan" below), as if he had remained employed until the retirement
date defined therein, in full satisfaction of Wackenhut's obligations under the
Retirement Agreement (the present value referred to above will be calculated
using a discount rate equal to the lower of the rate provided for in Section
280G(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, referred to herein
as the Code, or six and one-half percent (6.5%), and without regard to any
mortality factors or related probabilities); (6) the dollar value of the sum of
vacation time, had he remained employed, and accrued vacation time; and (7) a
payment of $670,000. In addition, Richard Wackenhut will be entitled to a pro
rata bonus for the year of termination under Wackenhut's bonus plan. If Richard
R. Wackenhut breaches a covenant not to compete provided for in the amendment to
his employment agreement, Wackenhut will be entitled to recover the payment of
$670,000 referred to above and other damages incurred.



                                       12

If Wackenhut were to terminate Richard R. Wackenhut's employment upon
consummation of the merger, the amount of the payments to him referred to above,
exclusive of the amounts relating to payoff of his deferred compensation, would
be $19,529,511, plus an excise tax gross-up payment of $9,079,791. For the
purposes of these calculations, we have assumed that the merger will be
consummated on June 1, 2002. The amounts payable to Richard R. Wackenhut
attributable to the payoff of his deferred compensation are set forth under the
description of the Senior Officer Retirement Plan below.

If Richard R. Wackenhut's employment is terminated due to his death, his estate
will be entitled to the following: (1) his earned and unpaid base salary; and
(2) the special termination payment described above. If, more than 18 months
after a change in control (as discussed below), Richard Wackenhut terminates his
employment, he would be entitled to receive the benefits described in the
previous paragraph regarding termination for good reason. A change in control
for purposes of Richard R. Wackenhut's employment agreement generally includes
the occurrence of any of the following: (1) any person, other than exempt
persons (including Wackenhut's present controlling shareholder group, which is
discussed below), becomes a beneficial owner of 30% or more of the combined
voting power of Wackenhut's outstanding securities; (2) the approval by
shareholders of a merger or consolidation, except a merger or consolidation
where existing shareholders would own more than 80% of the combined voting power
of Wackenhut's voting securities or of the voting securities of the surviving
company; (3) the approval by Wackenhut's shareholders of a liquidation or the
sale or disposition of all or substantially all of Wackenhut's assets; or (4)
Wackenhut's present controlling shareholder group owns 30% or less of the
Wackenhut's combined voting stock. A change in control will not be deemed to
occur if Richard R. Wackenhut is part of the purchasing group that consummates a
transaction causing a change in control. For the purposes of this paragraph,
Wackenhut's present controlling shareholder group includes George R. Wackenhut,
his spouse and lineal descendants, trusts formed for the benefit of such
persons, and affiliates of such persons. The employment agreement provides that
if any payment to Richard R. Wackenhut thereunder would be subject to federal
excise taxes imposed on certain severance payments, Wackenhut will make an
additional payment to him to cover any such taxes payable by him and the taxes
on such gross-up payment.

We have entered into an agreement with Richard R. Wackenhut that provides that
we will negotiate with each other in good faith to enter into a new employment
agreement prior to the effective time of the merger, and that the new employment
agreement will differ from his existing employment agreement in that it will
provide (i) for a term that will expire on March 17, 2012; (ii) that Mr.
Wackenhut will not compete with us or solicit our clients for a period of five
years after the termination of his employment; (iii) that Mr. Wackenhut's title
and duties will be as mutually agreed upon; (iv) that a reduction in the title
and/or duties of Mr. Wackenhut will not constitute good reason for Mr.
Wackenhut's resignation; and (v) that Mr. Wackenhut may engage in other
activities that are not competitive with our business. If Wackenhut is unable
to enter into a new agreement, Mr. Wackenhut's current agreement will remain in
effect.

SEVERANCE AGREEMENTS

Wackenhut entered into severance agreements with Alan B. Bernstein, Philip L.
Maslowe and certain other executive officers, effective as of March 17, 2000.
These severance agreements were amended and restated on November 21, 2001. Under
such amendments, the executives are entitled to a cash payment sufficient to
fund an annuity in satisfaction of Wackenhut's obligations to the executive
officers under the senior officer retirement/ deferred compensation agreements
which are described below. The severance agreements provide that if a covered
officer's employment ceases for any reason, including the voluntary resignation
of the officer, during the 12 month period following a change in control (as
defined above in the discussion of the employment agreement of Richard R.
Wackenhut), he or she will be entitled to the following: (1) a lump sum payment
equal to three times the sum of his or her annual salary at the time of the
termination, or if greater, his or her annual salary in effect for the calendar
year prior to the date of termination and the greater of the annual bonus he or
she received during the preceding calendar year or the largest bonus he or she
would have received if his or her termination had not occurred (assuming all
targets were met, regardless of actual results); (2) the continuation of his or
her employee benefits for three years, or at the election of the officer, an
amount equal to the present value of the cost of providing such benefits; (3)
immediate vesting of awards granted pursuant to Wackenhut's Key Employee
Long-Term Incentive Stock Plan and other stock options or other interests in
Wackenhut's securities, without regard to restrictions on restricted stock and
performance targets with respect to performance units or shares; (4) all of
Wackenhut's interest in any automobile used by the officer and the payment of
the balance of any outstanding loan or lease on such automobile; (5) the dollar
value of the sum of vacation time, had he or she remained employed, and accrued
vacation time; and (6) an amount equal to the deferred compensation payoff
amount in full satisfaction of Wackenhut's obligations under the senior officer
retirement/deferred compensation agreements described below. The deferred
compensation payoff amount is equal to the sum of (1) an amount which will be
sufficient to allow the officer to purchase an annuity policy issued by a life
insurance company which has the highest ratings from independent rating agencies
(such as Standard & Poor's or A.M. Best), which will provide after-tax benefits
in amounts which are at least equal to the after-tax benefits the officer would
have otherwise received, plus (2) a gross-up payment for all applicable taxes
relating to the deferred compensation payoff amount, excluding federal excise
taxes which are discussed below, and the taxes on such gross-up payment. The
severance agreements include a non-competition agreement for a period of 12
months after the termination of the officer's employment. The severance
agreements provide that if any payment to the officer thereunder would be
subject to federal excise taxes imposed on certain severance payments, Wackenhut
will make an additional payment to him or her to cover any such taxes payable by
him or her and the taxes on such gross-up payment.

If the employment of Alan B. Bernstein were terminated upon consummation of the
merger, the amount of the payments to him referred to above, exclusive of the
amounts relating to the payoff of his deferred compensation, would total
$3,737,315, plus an excise tax gross-up payment of $1,470,314. The amounts
payable to Alan B. Bernstein attributable to the payoff of his deferred
compensation are set forth under the description of the Senior Officer
Retirement Plan below.

If the employment of Philip L. Maslowe were terminated upon consummation of the
merger, the amount of the payments to him, exclusive of the amounts relating to
payoff of his deferred compensation,  would total $2,422,415, plus an excise tax
gross-up payment of $979,651. The amounts payable to Philip L. Maslowe
attributable to the payoff of his deferred compensation are set forth under the
description of the Senior Officer Retirement Plan below.

If the employment of our other executive officers were terminated upon the
consummation of the merger, the amount of the payments to them, exclusive of the
amounts relating to payoff of their deferred compensation, would total
$3,705,349 in the aggregate, plus excise gross-up payments of $1,499,304 in the
aggregate.

The exact amount of the foregoing payments depends on the date of the merger and
the interest rates in effect at such time. The amounts set forth above assume an
effective time of the merger in June 2002 and assume that the interest rates in
effect as of March 2002 will still be in effect as of June 2002. The actual
amounts may vary depending on the actual closing date and interest rates then in
effect.

At the board meeting held on March 7, 2002, our board of directors authorized
and approved the payment of a special bonus to Philip L. Maslowe in the amount
of $500,000 in connection with his efforts related to the merger. This bonus is
only to be paid upon consummation of the merger.


                                       13


SENIOR OFFICER RETIREMENT PLAN

The retirement benefits for Wackenhut's senior officers are contained in senior
officer retirement/deferred compensation agreements between Wackenhut and each
of Richard R. Wackenhut, Alan B. Bernstein, Philip L. Maslowe, and certain other
senior officers, referred to as the retirement agreements. The retirement
agreements were amended on March 17, 2000 and November 27, 2001. All benefits to
be provided under these retirement agreements are currently fully-vested. The
retirement agreements provide that Wackenhut will pay certain sums to the senior
officers or their beneficiaries for twenty five years (twenty years in the case
of Richard R. Wackenhut) beginning on the date of their death or retirement,
whichever occurs first, after age 60, or to their beneficiaries for twelve and
one half years (ten years in the case of Richard R. Wackenhut) if they die
before age 60. Upon a change in control (as defined above under the discussion
of the employment agreement of Richard R. Wackenhut): (1) the age of 55 years,
rather than 60, will be considered the retirement date; and (2) Wackenhut's
senior officers will be entitled to receive the deferred compensation payoff
amount, as described above under the Severance Agreements (or in the case of
Richard R. Wackenhut, the employment agreement). With respect to Wackenhut's
most highly-compensated executive officers, George R. Wackenhut is not a party
to a retirement agreement, while Philip L. Maslowe, Richard R. Wackenhut and
Alan B. Bernstein are parties to retirement agreements.

Richard R. Wackenhut's employment agreement  provides that if he is terminated
upon consummation of the merger, he will immediately receive a payoff in
satisfaction of the payments under his retirement/deferred compensation
agreement, without regard to the 55 -year age requirement discussed above. The
amount of this payoff is $1,992,756 plus an excise tax gross-up payment of
$299,236.

Alan B. Bernstein's severance agreement  provides that if he is terminated upon
consummation of the merger, he  will immediately receive a payoff in
satisfaction of the payments under his retirement/deferred compensation
agreement, without regard to the 55 -year age requirement discussed above. The
amount of this payoff is $4,209,176 plus an excise tax gross-up payment of
$963,588.

Philip L. Maslowe's severance agreement provides that  if he is terminated upon
consummation of the merger, he will immediately receive a payoff in satisfaction
of the payments under his retirement/deferred compensation agreement, without
regard to the 55 -year age requirement discussed above. The amount of this
payoff is $3,419,478 plus an excise tax gross-up payment of $817,553.

The severance agreements of our  two other executive officers  provide  that if
they are terminated upon consummation of the merger, they will immediately
receive a payoff in satisfaction of the payments under their retirement/deferred
compensation agreements, without regard to the 55-year age requirement discussed
above. The amount of these payoffs is $6,818,956  in the aggregate  plus  excise
tax gross-up payments of $1,878,901 in the aggregate.

The exact amount of the foregoing payments depends on the date of the merger and
the interest rates in effect at  such time. The amounts set forth above assume
an effective time of the merger  in June 2002, and assume that the interest
rates in effect as of March 2002 will still be in effect as of June 2002. The
actual amounts  may vary depending on the actual closing date and interest rates
then in effect.

CHANGES IN CONTROL

On March 8, 2002, Wackenhut entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
"Merger Agreement"), with Group 4 Falck A/S, a corporation organized under the
laws of Denmark ("Group 4 Falck"), and Milestone Acquisition Corporation, a
Florida corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Group 4 Falck ("Merger
Sub"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Group 4 Falck will acquire all of the
issued and outstanding capital stock of Wackenhut through the merger (the
"Merger") of Merger Sub with and into Wackenhut. The Merger, which is expected
to close by mid-year of 2002, is subject to the approval of Wackenhut's
shareholders, as well as certain other closing conditions.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, George R. Wackenhut and certain members of his
family and affiliated entities have entered into an agreement (the "Voting

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH WACKENHUT CORRECTIONS CORPORATION

The Corporation and its consolidated subsidiary, Wackenhut Corrections
Corporation ("WCC"), entered into a services agreement (the "Services
Agreement") on December 20, 1995, which became effective January 1, 1996,
pursuant to which the Corporation agreed to continue to provide certain of these
services to WCC. This agreement is being renewed on a year-to-year basis.

In accordance with the terms of the Services Agreement, WCC paid the Corporation
a fixed annual fee for services (the "Annual Services Fee") equal to $2,944,000
in fiscal 1999, $3,468,000 in fiscal 2000 and $2,831,000 in fiscal 2001.
Management of  the Corporation believes that the Annual Services Fees for
services that will be or may be provided under the Services Agreement are, or
will be, on terms no less favorable to the Corporation and WCC than could be
obtained from unaffiliated third parties. If WCC determines that it can obtain
any of the services to which the Annual Services Fees relate at a cost less than
that specified in the Services Agreement, WCC may obtain such services from
another party and terminate the provision of such services by the Corporation
with a corresponding reduction in the Annual Services Fee.

Under the Services Agreement, the services to be provided by the Corporation to
WCC for the Annual Services Fee include the following:

   FINANCIAL, ACCOUNTING, TAX AND GOVERNMENT CONTRACT MANAGEMENT SERVICES. Under
   the Services Agreement, the Corporation provides WCC with (i) treasury
   operations, (ii) support in the processing of accounts payable, tax returns
   and payroll, (iii) conducting periodic internal field audits, and (iv)
   purchasing assistance on an as needed basis.

   HUMAN RESOURCES SERVICES. Under the Services Agreement, the Corporation
   provides WCC assistance in the identification and selection of employees and
   compliance by WCC with various equal employment opportunity and other
   employment related requirements. The Corporation also assists WCC in
   implementing and administering employee benefit plans which comply with
   applicable laws and regulations.

   INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. Under the Services Agreement, the Corporation
   provides WCC with (i) training services, (ii) application development, (iii)
   telephone support for application users, (iv) configuration and development
   of personal computer support, (v) updates of application systems, (vi) design
   and execution of disaster recovery plans and (vii) telecommunications
   infrastructure and support.

Any services provided by the Corporation to WCC beyond the services covered by
the Annual Services Fees are billed to WCC at cost or on a cost plus basis as
described in the Services Agreement or such other basis as WCC and the
Corporation agree.

The Services Agreement formerly contained certain provisions governing
competition between WCC and the Corporation. On March 21, 2002, the Services
Agreement was amended to eliminate these provisions.

The following table sets forth certain amounts billed to WCC during fiscal 1999,
fiscal 2000, and fiscal 2001, for services not covered by the Annual Services
Fee paid under the Services Agreement.

(1)      Casualty insurance premiums relate to workers' compensation, general
         liability and automobile insurance coverage obtained through the
         Corporation's Insurance Program. Substantially, all of the casualty
         insurance premiums represented premiums paid to a captive reinsurance
         company that is wholly owned by the Corporation. Under the terms of the
         Services Agreement, WCC also has the option to continue to participate
         in certain other insurance policies maintained by the Corporation for
         which WCC reimburses the Corporation for direct and indirect costs
         associated in providing such services.

(2)      WCC is charged interest on intercompany indebtedness and charges
         interest on intercompany loans at rates that reflect WCC's average
         interest costs on long-term debt, exclusive of mortgage financing.

(3)      Effective February 15, 1996, WCC entered into a 15-year agreement with
         the Corporation providing for the rental of approximately 14,672 square
         feet of office space at its corporate headquarters in Palm Beach
         Gardens, Florida, on terms which the Corporation believes to be no less
         favorable to the Corporation than could have been obtained from
         unaffiliated third parties. The Corporation also provides building
         services such as mailroom, reception and security as a component of the
         Services Agreement.

Management of the Corporation believes that the services provided for the Annual
Services Fees and the other services that will or may be provided under the
Services Agreement are, or will be, on terms no less favorable to the
Corporation and WCC than could have been obtained from unaffiliated third
parties.



                                       17

AGREEMENT AMONG WACKENHUT, WCC AND GROUP 4 FALCK

As disclosed above, on March 8, 2002, the Corporation entered into a Merger
Agreement with Group 4 Falck and Milestone Acquisition Corporation. Pursuant to
the Merger Agreement, Group 4 Falck will acquire all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of the Corporation through the Merger of Milestone
Acquisition Corporation with and into the Corporation. The Merger, which is
expected to close by mid-year of 2002, is subject to the approval of the
Corporation's shareholders, as well as certain other closing conditions.

In connection with the Merger, WCC, the Corporation and Group 4 Falck entered
into an agreement, dated March 8, 2002, that will govern certain aspects of
their relationship following the consummation of the Merger (the "WCC
Agreement"). The WCC Agreement provides, among other things, that (1) for a
period of three years following the Merger, the board of directors of WCC will
consist of nine members, five will be independent directors; two will be WCC
officers; and two will be Group 4 Falck representatives, (2) during the one year
period following the Merger, the Nominating and Compensation Committee of the
WCC board of directors will consist of three members; two will be independent
directors; and one will be a director nominated by Group 4 Falck, and (3) until
such time as Group 4 Falck directly or indirectly owns less than 49% of WCC's
outstanding common stock, (i) neither Group 4 Falck nor the Corporation will
engage in the business of managing or operating prison, detention facility or
mental health facility management businesses anywhere in the United States, and
(ii) representatives of Group 4 Falck and the Corporation who serve on WCC's
board of directors will not have access to certain proprietary, confidential
information of WCC, its subsidiaries or affiliates. The WCC Agreement also
requires that any purchases of WCC common stock by either the Corporation or
Group 4 Falck during the three year period following the Merger be made only at
a price approved by a majority of the independent directors of WCC.

OTHER RELATIONSHIPS AND TRANSACTIONS

The Corporation has a joint life policy on George R. Wackenhut and Ruth J.
Wackenhut in the amount of $800,000. The cost of the policy is $16,543 per year
and substantially all of the premium is paid by the Corporation. In this
connection, an agreement provides that $760,000 of the proceeds from the policy
will be paid to the Corporation as reimbursement of the costs.

From time to time, the Corporation has guaranteed certain obligations of WCC and
its affiliates. These guarantees remained in place following WCC's IPO and may
be called upon should there be a default with respect to such obligations.

The Corporation anticipates that it may, from time to time, use the services of
the law firm of Venable, Baetjer and Howard, of which Mr. Benjamin R. Civiletti,
a Director of the Corporation, is a partner. George R. Wackenhut, Chairman of
the Board of the Corporation, also serves as Chairman of the Board of WCC and,
together with his wife, Ruth J. Wackenhut, through trusts over which they have
sole dispositive and voting power, control approximately 50.05% of the issued
and outstanding voting common stock of the Corporation. Richard R. Wackenhut,
Vice Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, is also
a Director of WCC. He is the son of George R. and Ruth J. Wackenhut.
