(1) Diversion and Disposal Component. The Diversion and Disposal Component shall consist of the percentage change in the average Diversion and Disposal cost per ton for the Current Measurement Period (defined as the 12 months ending the last day of December of the current year preceding the adjustment date) compared to the average Diversion and Disposal cost per ton for the Prior Measurement Period (defined as the 12 months ending the last day of December of the prior year). The Diversion and Disposal cost per ton for each measurement period shall be the sum of the Recycling Processing Factor, the Organic Waste Processing Factor and the MSW Factor for the measurement period divided by the total tons for that period. See example calculation in Exhibit D. (2) Each of the factors comprising the Diversion and Disposal Component are defined as follows: 15 i. Recycling Processing Factor. The Current Recycling Processing Factor equals the total tons of Recyclable Material delivered to the Recycling Facility(ies) for the Current Measurement Period multiplied by the average of the monthly processing fees charged at the Recycling Facility(ies) during the Current Measurement Period. The Prior Recycling Processing Factor equals the total tons of Recyclable Material delivered to the Recycling Facility(ies) for the Prior Measurement Period multiplied by the average of the monthly processing fees charged at the Recycling Facility(ies) during the Prior Measurement Period. ii. Organic Waste Processing Factor. The Current Organic Waste Processing Factor equals the total tons delivered to the Organics Processing Facility(ies) for processing during the Current Measurement Period multiplied by the per ton organic waste processing fees charged at the Organics Processing Facility(ies) for the new rate period. The Prior Organic Waste Processing Factor equals the total tons delivered to the Organics Processing Facility(ies)for processing during the Prior Measurement Period multiplied by the per ton organic waste processing fees charged at the Organics Processing Facility(ies) for the prior rate period.. Contractor shall provide to the City written documentation of the per ton tip fee adjustment at the Organics Processing Facility(ies) as part of the annual rate adjustment application. 16 iii. MSW Factor. The Current MSW Factor equals the total tons delivered to the MSW Facility(ies) for disposal during the Current Measurement Period multiplied by the per ton disposal rate charged at the MSW Facility(ies) for the new rate period. The Prior MSW Factor equals the total tons delivered to the MSW Facility(ies) for disposal during the Prior Measurement Period multiplied by the per ton disposal rate at the MSW Facility(ies)for the prior rate period, provided, however,that any increase shall not exceed the percentage increase in the per ton tipping fee established by the Riverside County Waste Management Department for disposal of Solid Waste generated within Riverside County at landfills comprising the County System (Badlands Landfill, Lamb Canyon Landfill, El Sobrante Landfill). Company shall provide to the City written documentation of the per ton tip fee adjustment at the Disposal Facility(ies) as part of the annual rate adjustment application.

Loss of Processing Facilities or Disposal Capabilities • Solid Waste: In the event that the Waste Management Azusa Transfer Station is unable to accept solid waste from the City of Arcadia, Waste Management has the option to move Arcadia waste to our Sun Valley Recycling Park in Sun Valley, or to the Grand Central MRF and Transfer Station in the City of Industry, or to the Pomona Valley Transfer Station, or to the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts Puente Hills MRF and Transfer Station. Additionally, in the event that all local transfer stations are inaccessible Waste Management may direct haul the material to the Simi Valley Landfill and Recycling. • Organics/Green Waste: In the event that the Azusa Transfer Station is unable to process mixed food waste and green waste, WM will deliver unprocessed material to Waste Management's Simi Valley Landfill and Recycling Center. Additionally, Waste Management may direct haul the unprocessed material to the Waste Management South Valley Composting Facility in Tulare. If no option is available, organics will be taken directly to the landfill. • Recyclables: In the event the Azusa MRF is not available, Waste Management will transfer the recyclables to Grand Central MRF and Transfer Station in the City of Industry or the Puente Hills MRF. If both contingency facilities are unavailable, residents will be asked to temporarily commingle their waste and recycling until a processing facility is available. Inclement Weather • Waste Management keeps the safety of our drivers and communities at the forefront of all weather-related service issues. In the event of inclement weather, the District and Route Managers will evaluate road conditions. If Waste Management determines that it is unsafe to provide services, our staff will notify the City Manager or designee of the conditions and request permission to collect only in those portions of the City that do not pose a danger. If the City Manager authorizes a weather-related temporary cessation of services, Contractor may temporarily cease collections except in those portions of the city that do not pose a danger. Contractor will provide collection services for customers with uninterrupted service on the next business day following the cessation of the weather conditions, unless some other schedule is approved by the City Manager. Contractor shall use the outbound dialing systems to notify customers of their next collection day. Unexpected Circumstance • Waste Management has a local Disaster Plan that includes specific procedures for strikes and catastrophic events. In a catastrophic event, Waste Management would resume service with the assistance of employees based in unaffected areas through the County. Waste Management would prioritize the collection of solid waste from all of Arcadia essential public service facilities. Equipment Failure • In the event of equipment failure or loss, Waste Management maintains spare service, delivery and collection vehicles at each Waste Management District in the region, that could assist Waste Management's operations that serve Arcadia, if necessary. • A large portion of Waste Management's Southern California fleet provides residential collection services. Vehicles from this fleet are available to support the collection of large quantities of materials (i.e. after a windstorm). Waste Management also maintains a sufficient inventory of roll-off boxes. Equipment from this inventory would be available for use in an emergency situation Strike or Natural Disaster • In the event that there is a labor strike, Waste Management has the ability to deploy non-union, certified and experienced Waste Management employees to run routes. Waste Management would prioritize collection service customers in order to ensure that all essential public service facilities (i.e. hospitals, nursing home, etc.) retain collection services. In the event of a strike, Waste Management expects that all normal collection schedules would be resumed within just a few days. • During a work stoppage, picking up trash be the first priority. Waste Management will attempt to collect all trash and organics the first week. During the first two weeks of the work stoppage recycling will be the second priority. In the event that the stoppage lasts longer than two weeks, recycling will be postponed for two weeks until additional resources are confirmed; customers will be asked to comingle their waste if necessary, to stay on schedule In the event of emergency, work stoppage or labor disruption, picking up trash will be the first priority. All changes in collection and operations will be communicated to City staff as quickly as possible. EXHIBIT B ACCEPTABLE RECYCLABLES B-1 y a m .

Beginning July 1, 2011 and on each July 1 thereafter, subject to the requirements of subsection 3 below, the rates shall be adjusted in accordance with the rate adjustment methodology set forth below. Contractor shall submit to the City, not less than ninety (90) days prior to the effective date of the proposed adjustment, information in support of the adjustment. The City Manager shall review the information submitted by Contractor for completeness and accuracy. The City Manager shall refer the proposed adjustment to the City Council for approval, which shall not be withheld unless the City determines the information submitted by Contractor is incomplete or inaccurate. Contractor acknowledges that its late submission of the proposed adjustment and supporting information may make it impossible for the City to timely complete compliance with Proposition 218's 23 notice and majority protest procedures so as to allow the rate increase to take effect on July 1 sc Rate Adjustment Methodology. The rates consist of the following components, with the following component weightings. Service Component. The Service Component comprises sixty -five percent (65 %) of the overall rates. The Service Component shall be adjusted annually by seventy -five (75 %) of the percentage increase or decrease in the Consumer Price Index ( "CPI "), All Urban Consumers, for the Los Angeles - Orange County — Riverside Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), as published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. Fuel Component. The Fuel Component comprises five percent (5 %) of the overall rates. The Fuel Component shall be adjusted annually by the percentage increase or decrease in the annual Ultra -Low Sulfur Diesel and /or CNG or LNG (On Highway) price published in the Official Energy Statistics, as published by the United States Department of Energy, proportionally based on the fuel used by the vehicles in service. Disposal /Green Waste Component. The Disposal Component comprises thirty percent (30 %) of the overall rates. The Disposal Component shall be adjusted annually based on the percentage increase or decrease in the per ton tipping fee per ton actually charged at the Los Angeles County Sanitation District Disposal Facilities and Composting Facilities providing services for Solid Waste and Green Waste generated in the San Gabriel Valley. The per ton tipping fee used for this calculation shall be assumed to include all 24 federal, state, and local taxes, fees, and assessments levied on or applicable to the processing, transportation, or disposal of solid waste. Notwithstanding the actual date of a Disposal /Green Waste Facility cost increase, increases in Contractor's approved rates to reflect Disposal /Green Waste Facility cost increases shall take effect only on July 1 of each year, concurrently with the other rate increases described in this Agreement.

The figures set forth in this example are based on current Disposal /Green Waste Facility fees and rates. This formula, and resulting rate increase, will be applied uniformly to all rates, with the exception that the portion of the rates comprising the surcharges assessed by Contractor for recycling and the AB939 fee under subsections 3 and 4 below shall be fixed. 3. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2 above, the amount of any annual rate adjustment will be reduced such that it will not cause the rates for services to exceed the applicable rates charged in more than the lowest one - third of all cities in the San Gabriel Valley receiving similar services. In comparing rates, the determination of whether similar services are received will consider the number, size and type of residential containers, the frequency of collection, and the amount and value of additional services provided to residents at no cost. In addition, in comparing rates with other cities, franchise fees and AB 939 fees will not be considered, but fees or charges directly related to the provision of services (such as fuel surcharges, capital accounts, etc.) will be considered. Contractor shall submit a rate comparison table each year with its request for an annual rate adjustment, and determine any reduction in the annual rate adjustment necessitated by the rate comparison. However, in no instance shall this rate comparison result in a reduction of the overall rates changed to residents from the rates charged during the prior year. 4. The Contractor shall assess as part of the rates an AB 939 fee of thirty cents ($0.30) per month per residential unit will be used to offset the costs to fund ►M reduction and recycling element and the integrated waste management plan. The fee shall be in addition to any other fee or charge for solid waste collection authorized by the Arcadia Municipal Code and refuse rate resolutions. a. The Contractor shall charge the residential AB939 fee to the person in whose name refuse service is registered. The fee shall be charged and billed as a monthly regular service charge, and no credit shall be allowed for this portion of a month's service. b.

The Contractor shall assess as part of the rates a monthly per unit surcharge for recycling as follows: $0.78 for single family homes. $0.78 for single family homes backyard service. $1.00 per unit for multi - family complexes between two (2) to six (6) units. $1.50 per unit for multi - family complexes greater than six (6) units. The above surcharge rates shall remain fixed throughout the term of this Agreement unless otherwise altered by City. 6. Contractor may request an adjustment to the service rates other than as provided in Section G.2 above to provide for the reimbursement of unusual changes in the costs of providing service. "Unusual changes" may include changes in state or local government solid waste fees and charges, changes in the law, or changed or additional services requested 27 by the City. These changes do not include inaccurate estimates by Contractor of its proposed cost of operations, or decreases in the commodity value of Recyclable Material. The City shall review Contractor's request and, except as provided below, in the City's sole judgment, make the final determination on the appropriate amount of the adjustment, if any, subject to compliance with Proposition 218's notice and hearing requirements and all other applicable law. A requested adjustment that is supported by full and complete documentation shall be approved or denied by the City in its reasonable judgment in the case of adjustments not exceeding the cost of additional reporting required by the City (except to the extent that such additional reporting is necessary to comply with state or federal law), changes in the law, changed or additional services requested by the City, any change in the ordinances of the City affecting the Company's operations, changes in state or local government solid waste fees, charges or surcharges, or the City's imposition of a franchise fee. 7.

The party claiming excuse from performance shall promptly notify the other party when it learns of the existence of such cause and when such cause has terminated.

The City shall have the option and right to use the collection vehicles and equipment of the Contractor customarily used in the performance of the Agreement for the purpose of compliance with this Agreement at any time after the Contractor has failed to timely cure any breach of this Agreement. In the event the City exercises said option, the City shall pay to the Contractor a reasonable rental figure for its use of said collection vehicles and equipment and return said collection vehicles and equipment to the Contractor in as good condition as received, reasonable wear and tear excepted.

HH. PENALTIES REGARDING SERVICE DEFICIENCIES 1. City finds, and Contractor agrees, that as of the time of the execution of this Agreement, it is impractical, if not impossible, to reasonably ascertain the extent .O of damages which shall be incurred by City as a result of a breach by Contractor of its obligations under this Agreement. The factors relating to the impracticability of ascertaining damages include, but are not limited to, the fact that: (i) substantial damage results to members of the public who are denied services or denied quality or reliable service; (ii) such breaches cause inconvenience, anxiety, frustration, and deprivation of the benefits of the Agreement to individual members of the general public for whose benefit this Agreement exists, in subjective ways and in varying degrees of intensity which are incapable of measurement in precise monetary terms; (iii) that franchised services might be available at substantially lower costs than alternative services and the monetary loss resulting from denial of services or denial of quality or reliable services is impossible to calculate in precise monetary terms; and (iv) the termination of this Agreement for such breaches, and other remedies are, at best, a means of future correction and not remedies which make the public whole for past breaches. 2. The parties further acknowledge that consistent, reliable Solid Waste collection service is of utmost importance to City and that City has considered and relied on Contractor's representations as to its quality of service commitment in awarding this Agreement to Contractor. The parties further recognize that some quantified standards of performance are necessary and appropriate to ensure consistent and reliable service and performance. The parties further recognize that if Contractor fails to achieve the performance standards, or fails to submit required documents in a timely manner, City and its residents will suffer damages and that it is and will be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain and determine the 61 exact amount of damages which City will suffer. Therefore, without prejudice to City's right to treat such non - performance as an event of default under this Agreement, and in accordance with California Civil Code Section 1671, which establishes requirements for liquidating the damages for the breach of a contract, the parties agree that the following liquidated damage amounts represent a reasonable estimate of the amount of such damages considering all of the circumstances existing on the date of this Agreement, including the relationship of the sums to the range of harm to City that reasonably could be anticipated and the anticipation that proof of actual damages would be costly or impractical. In placing their initials at the places provided, each party specifically confirms the accuracy of the statements made above and the fact that each party has had ample opportunity to consult with legal counsel and obtain an explanation of the liquidated damage provisions at the time that the Agreement was made. Contractor Initial Here City Initial Here Contractor agrees to pay (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) the amounts set forth below: (a) Failure to respond to a substantive customer complaint, as determined by the Public Works Services Director: within forty-eight (48) hours of written notice by the Director - $100.00; within seventy -two (72) hours - $250.00 62 plus $50.00 per day for each subsequent twenty -four (24) hour period of non - response following the seventy -two (72) hour period. (b) $100 as to each monthly report, and $500 as to each annual report, for each calendar day a required report is late. Any report shall be considered late until such time as a correct and complete report is received by City. (c) $500 for any of the following: • each failure to properly return empty Carts to the same location as where the full Carts were collected, which results in pedestrian or vehicular traffic impediments, and which is not remedied on the same business day following notification of Contractor by the customer or the City; • each spill or leakage of oil, hydraulic fluid, coolant, or other fluid from any collection vehicle used by Contractor, which causes a stain of 0.5 square feet or greater not cleaned up within eight (8) hours of occurrence. (d) $100 for any of the following: • each failure to commence service to a new customer account within seven (7) days after order; • each failure to collect Solid Waste, which has been properly set out for collection. from an established customer account on the scheduled collection day and not collected within one (1) business day from notification of Contractor by the customer or the City; 63 • each failure to resolve a claim of damage to private property (as determined by the City) within thirty (30) days for claims of $500 or less or within sixty (60) days for claims greater than $500; • each failure to close the lid of a Bin following collection of Solid Waste from the Bin not remedied on the same business day following notification of Contractor by the customer or the City; • each occurrence of excessive noise; • each failure to resolve each claim of discourteous behavior to a customer (as determined by the City) within three (3) business days following notification of Contractor by customer or the City; • each failure to clean up spills from Solid Waste Carts or Bins (as determined by the City) on the same business day following notification of Contractor by the customer or the City; and • each occurrence of collecting Solid Waste during unauthorized hours. 3. City may assess liquidated damages for each calendar day or event, as appropriate, that Contractor is determined to be liable in accordance with this Agreement. Contractor shall pay any liquidated damages assessed by City within ten (10) days after they are assessed, or may file an appeal contesting the assessment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section S.1. If liquidated damages are not paid within the ten (10) day period, City may order the termination of the franchise granted by this Agreement, provided that termination shall not take place during such time as an appeal by Contractor of 64 any assessment is pending and for ten (10) days following the resolution of any appeal. 4.

ATTEST: CITY OF ARCADIA A Municipal Corporation City Manager USA WASTE OF CALIFORNIA, INC. A Delaware Corporation B City qierk APPROVED AS TO FORM: � () 1 �- City Attorney .32 WA%W M MANAnOMBW Think Green. EXHIBIT A Contingency Plan Waste Management understands how important it is to the City of Arcadia to plan ahead to prepare for any type of emergency, whether natural or man -made. As partners with the City, Waste Management is also prepared for any type of emergency or unforeseen circumstances. While it is difficult to plan specifically for every type of emergency, this contingency plan shall serve as an example of Waste Management's abilities to respond quickly and effectively in the event of any emergency or unforeseen event. With over 10 years experience serving the Arcadia, Waste Management has the experience and dedication to meet the needs of the City, keeping it safe and clean, in any situation. In addition to our experience in collection operations during and following natural disasters and work stoppage, WM has also recently completed its Disaster Management plan for the West Coast. As a result, WM has a pragmatic hands -on approach to preparing for, and reacting to an emergency event. In any event, as with our day -today operations, effective communications is of paramount importance. Waste Management will immediately notify the City of any event that will inhibit our ability to perform collection, processing or disposal services. Loss of Processing Facilities or Disposal Capabilities Solid Waste: In the event that the Puente Hills landfill is unable to accept solid waste from the City Arcadia, Waste Management will transfer MSW to the South Gate Transfer Station. In the event that the South Gate Transfer Station is not available, WM will utilize another transfer station in the area or direct haul the material to one of our disposal sites. • Green Waste: In the event that the Puente Hills landfill is unable to accept yard debris WM will transport the yard debris to the South Gate Transfer Station. If that option is not available, residents will be asked to commingle their waste and recycling green waste until a processing facility is available. • Recvclables: If the current processing facilities that we use (Allan Company) are not available, WM will transfer the recyclables to either WMRAA Express in Downtown Los Angeles or WMRAA in Pico Rivera. If that option is not available, residents will be asked to commingle their waste and recycling until a processing facility is available. Inclement Weather • Waste Management keeps the safety of our drivers and communities at the forefront of all weather related service issues. In the event of inclement weather, the District and Route Managers will evaluate road conditions. If WM determines that it is unsafe to provide services, our staff will notify the City Manager or the designee of the conditions and request permission to collect only in those portions of the City that do not pose a danger. If the City Manager, in his or her sole discretion, authorizes a weather - related temporary cessation of services, Contractor may temporarily cease collections except in those portions of the City that do not pose a danger. Contractor will provide collection services for customers with interrupted service on the next business day following the cessation of the weather conditions, unless some other schedule is approved by the City Manager. Contractor shall use the outbound dialing systems to notify all of Arcadia residential customers of their next collection day. Unexpected Circumstance • Waste Management has developed a local Disaster Plan that includes specific procedures for strikes and catastrophic events. In a catastrophic event, WM would resume service with the assistance of employees based in unaffected areas throughout the Country. WM would prioritize the collection of solid waste from all of Arcadia essential public service facilities. 2 Equipment Failure • In the event of equipment failure or loss, Waste Management maintains spare service, delivery and collection vehicles at each Waste Management District in the region. Waste Management has over 400 trucks located within a 30- minute radius of Arcadia, and roughly 2500 trucks in the Southern California region. Each District maintains a 7 -10% spare ratio that could assist WM's operations that serve Arcadia, if necessary. • A large portion of WM's Southern California fleet provides residential collection services and will be available to support large quantities of materials (i.e. after a windstorm). WM also maintains a sufficient inventory of roll -off boxes and 60 open -top 48 -foot trailers. This equipment would be available for use in an emergency situation. Strike or Natural Disaster • In the event that there is a labor strike, Waste Management would collect municipal solid waste with non - union, certified and experienced WM employees. Waste Management would prioritize collection service customers in order to ensure that all essential public service facilities (i.e. hospitals, nursing homes, schools, etc.) retain collection services. In the event of a strike, WM expects that all normal collection schedules would be resumed within just a few days. • During a work stoppage, picking up trash will be the first priority. WM will attempt to collect all trash the first week. During the first two weeks of the work stoppage, green waste will be the second priority and recycling the third. In the event that the stoppage lasts longer than two weeks, recycling and green waste will be postponed for two weeks until additional resources are confirmed; customers will be asked to commingle their waste if necessary to stay on schedule. In the event of emergency, work stoppage or labor disruption, picking up trash will be the first priority. All changes in collection and operations will be communicated to City staff as quickly as possible. 3 Exhibit "B" City of Arcadia Residential Refuse and Recycling Collection Service Single Family Rate Schedule Effective July 1, 2009 the monthly residential refuse and recycling service rates are: This pricing applies only to residents that exceed the 4 free Bulky Item collections STANDARD SERVICE RATES SENIOR CITIZEN SERVICE RATES 2009 # Green Total 2009 # Green Total Service Base GW Waste Recycling AS 939 Monthly Service Base GW Waste Recycling AB 939 Monthly Category Rate carts Rate Charge Fee Fee Category Rata carts Rate Charge Fee Rate Singe Family $12.57 1 $1.92 $078 $0.30 $15.57 Single Family $11.33 1 $1.74 $0.78 $030 $14.15 Dwelling, (1) $1257 2 $2.76 $078 $0.30 $16.40 Dwelling.
