     5. Certain Agreements of the Company and each Guarantor. The Company and each Guarantor agree, with the several Purchasers that:

     (a) Amendments and Supplements to Offering Circulars. The Company will promptly advise the Representative of any proposal to amend or supplement the Preliminary Offering Circular or Final Offering Circular and will not effect such amendment or supplementation without the Representative’s consent. If, at any time prior to the completion of the resale of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers, there occurs an event or development as a result of which any document included in the Preliminary Offering Circular or Final Offering Circular, the General Disclosure Package or any Supplemental Marketing Material, if republished immediately following such event or development, included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Company and the Guarantors promptly will notify the Representative of such event and promptly will prepare and furnish, at their own expense, to the Purchasers and the dealers and to any other dealers at the request of the Representative an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance. Neither the Representative’s consent to, nor the Purchasers’ delivery to offerees or investors of, any such amendment or supplement shall constitute a waiver of any of the conditions set forth in Section 6. The first sentence of this subsection does not apply to statements in or omissions from any document in the Preliminary Offering Circular or Final Offering Circular, the General Disclosure Package or any Supplemental Marketing Material made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Representative specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information is that described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

     (b) Furnishing of Offering Circulars. The Company will furnish to the Representative copies of the Preliminary Offering Circular, each other document

comprising a part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Circular, all amendments and supplements to such documents and each item of Supplemental Marketing Material, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as the Representative reasonably requests. At any time when the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will promptly furnish or cause to be furnished to the Representative (and, upon request, to each of the other Purchasers) and, upon request of holders and prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities, to such holders and purchasers, copies of the information required to be delivered to holders and prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision thereto) in order to permit compliance with Rule 144A in connection with resales by such holders of the Offered Securities. The Company will pay the expenses of printing and distributing to the Purchasers all such documents.

     (c) Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will arrange for the qualification of the Offered Securities for sale and the determination of their eligibility for investment under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and Canada as the Representative designates and will continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the resale of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers, provided that the Company will not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to file a general consent to service of process in any such state.

     (d) Transfer Restrictions. During the period of one year after the Closing Date, the Company will, upon reasonable request, furnish to the Representative, each of the other Purchasers and any holder of Offered Securities a copy of the restrictions on transfer applicable to the Offered Securities.

     (e) No Resales by Affiliates. During the period of one year after the Closing Date, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) to, resell any of the Offered Securities that have been reacquired by any of them.

     (f) Investment Company. During the period of one year after the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any Guarantor will be or become, an open-end investment company, unit investment trust or face-amount certificate company that is or is required to be registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act.

     (g) Payment of Expenses. The Company and the Guarantors will pay all expenses incidental to the performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement, including but not limited to (i) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and its professional advisers; (ii) all expenses in connection with the execution, issue, authentication, packaging and initial delivery of the Offered Securities and, as applicable, the Exchange Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the preparation and printing of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Offered Securities, the Indenture, the Preliminary Offering Circular, any other documents comprising any part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Circular, all amendments and supplements thereto, each item of Supplemental Marketing Material and any other document relating to the issuance, offer, sale and delivery of the Offered Securities and as applicable, the Exchange Securities; (iii) the cost of any advertising approved by the Company in connection with the issue of the Offered Securities; (iv) any expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Purchasers) incurred in connection with qualification of the Offered Securities or the Exchange Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and Canada as the Representative designates and the

preparation and printing of memoranda relating thereto; (v) any fees charged by investment rating agencies for the rating of the Offered Securities or the Exchange Securities; and (vi) expenses incurred in distributing the Preliminary Offering Circular, any other documents comprising any part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Circular (including any amendments and supplements thereto) and any Supplemental Marketing Material to the Purchasers. The Company and the Guarantors will also pay or reimburse the Purchasers (to the extent incurred by them) for reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Purchasers and the Company’s officers and employees relating to investor presentations on any “road show” in connection with the offering and sale of the Offered Securities, including, without limitation, any such travel expenses of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ officers and employees, including the chartering of airplanes.¹

     (h) Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the net proceeds received in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities in the manner described in the “Use of Proceeds” section of the General Disclosure Package and, except as disclosed in the General Disclosure Package.

     (i) Absence of Manipulation. In connection with the offering by the Company of the Offered Securities, until the Representative shall have notified the Company of the completion of the resale of the Offered Securities, neither the Company nor any of its affiliates has or will, either alone or with one or more other persons, bid for or purchase for any account in which it or any of its affiliates has a beneficial interest any Offered Securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any Offered Securities; and neither it nor any of its affiliates will make bids or purchases for the purpose of creating actual, or apparent, active trading in, or of raising the price of, the Offered Securities.

     (j) Restriction on Sale of Securities. Except as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, for a period of 90 days after the date of the initial offering of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers, the Company will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to, any United States dollar-denominated debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Company and having a maturity of more than one year from the date of issue, or publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing, without the prior written consent of Credit Suisse. The Company will not at any time offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any securities under circumstances where such offer, sale, pledge, contract or disposition would cause the exemption afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or the safe harbor of Rule 144A or Regulation S thereunder to cease to be applicable to the offer and sale of the Offered Securities.

     6. Free Writing Communications. (a) The Company and each Guarantor each represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Representative, and each Purchaser represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company and the Representative, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Offered Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Communication.

     (b) Term Sheets. The Company consents to the use by any Purchaser of a Free Writing Communication that (i) contains only (A) information describing the preliminary terms of the Offered Securities or their offering or (B) information that describes the final terms of the Offered Securities or their offering and that is included in or is subsequently included in the Final Offering Circular, including by means of a pricing term sheet, or (ii) does not contain any material information about the Company or any Guarantor or their securities that was provided by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor, it being understood and agreed that the Company and each Guarantor shall not be responsible to any Purchaser for liability arising from any inaccuracy in such Free Writing Communications referred to in clause (i) or (ii) as compared with the information in the Preliminary Offering Circular, the Final Offering Circular or the General Disclosure Package.

     7. Conditions of the Obligations of the Purchasers. The obligations of the several Purchasers to purchase and pay for the Offered Securities will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Guarantors herein (as though made on the Closing Date) to the accuracy of the statements of officers of the Company and the Guarantors made pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Company and the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions precedent:

     (a) Accountants’ Comfort Letter. The Representative shall have received (i) a letter, dated the date of this Agreement, of KPMG LLP in agreed form confirming that they are independent public accountants within the meaning of the Securities Act and the applicable published Rules and Regulations and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and to the effect that:

     (A) in their opinion the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries examined by them and included in the Preliminary Offering Circular and Final Offering Circular and in the Exchange Act Reports comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act and the related published Rules and Regulations;

     (B) on the basis of a reading of the latest available unaudited financial statements of the Company, inquiries of officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters and other specified procedures, nothing came to their attention that caused them to believe that:

     (1) at the date of the latest available balance sheet read by such accountants, or at a subsequent specified date not more than three business days prior to the date of this Agreement, there was any change in the capital stock or any increase in long-term debt of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries or, at the date of the latest available balance sheet read by such accountants, there was any decrease in consolidated net current assets or shareholders’ equity, as compared with amounts shown on the latest balance sheet included in General Disclosure Package; or

     (2) for the period from the Closing Date of the latest income statement included in the General Disclosure Package to the Closing Date of the latest available income statement read by such accountants there were any decreases, as compared with the corresponding period of the previous year and with the period of corresponding length ended the date of the latest income statement included in the General Disclosure Package, in consolidated revenue or in consolidated net income;

except in all cases set forth in clauses (1) and (2) above for changes, increases or decreases which the General Disclosure Package discloses have occurred or may occur or which are described in such letter;

     (C) (1) they have read the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2010 and the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Offering Circular and the Final Offering Circular; (2) inquired of certain officials of the Company who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters about: (i) the basis for their determination of the pro forma adjustments, and (ii) whether the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements referred to in (C)(1) comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulation S-X, and (3) proved the arithmetic accuracy of the application of the pro forma adjustments to the historical amounts in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements;

     (D) nothing came to their attention as a result of the procedures specified in paragraph (C), however, that caused them to believe that (i) the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements referred to in (C)(1) incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Offering Circular and the Final Offering Circular do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulation S-X, other than the fact that the pro forma financial statements as incorporated by reference to this Offering Memorandum are no longer current under the provisions of Regulation S-X, and (ii) the pro forma adjustments have not been properly applied to the historical amounts in the compilation of those statements; and

     (E) they have compared specified dollar amounts (or percentages derived from such dollar amounts) and other financial information contained in the Preliminary Offering Circular, each other document comprising any part of the General Disclosure Package, the Final Offering Circular and each item of Supplemental Marketing Material (other than any Supplemental Marketing Material that is an electronic road show) and the Exchange Act Reports (in each case to the extent that such dollar amounts, percentages and other financial information are derived from the general accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries subject to the internal controls of the Company’s accounting system or are derived directly from such records by analysis or computation) with the results obtained from inquiries, a reading of such general accounting records and other procedures specified in such letter and have found such dollar amounts, percentages and other financial information to be in agreement with such results, except as otherwise specified in such letter.

(ii) a letter, dated the date of this Agreement, of ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, LLC in agreed form confirming that they are independent public accountants within the meaning Rule 101 of the American Institute of Certified Public Accounts Code of Professional Conduct and to the effect that:

     (A) in their opinion the financial statements of the MacLand and Central Florida Markets (collectively, “Emerald”), of Waste Recyclers Holdings, LLC and subsidiaries (“Emerald’s Parent”) examined by them and incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Offering Circular and Final Offering Circular are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

     (B) on the basis of a reading of the latest available unaudited interim financial statements of the Emerald, inquiries of officials of Emerald who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters and other specified procedures, nothing came to their

attention that caused them to believe that (i) any material modifications should be made to the unaudited interim financial statements, incorporated by reference into the Offering Memorandum, for them to be in conformity with GAAP or (ii) the unaudited interim financial statements are not in conformity with GAAP.

     (C) they have compared specified dollar amounts (or percentages derived from such dollar amounts) and other financial and statistical information contained in the Company’s Form 8-K/A dated March 9, 211 incorporated by reference into the Preliminary Offering Circular and the Final Offering Circular (in each case to the extent that such dollar amounts, percentages and other financial and statistical information are derived from the general accounting records of Emerald or are derived directly from such records by analysis or computation) with the results obtained from inquiries, a reading of such general accounting records and other procedures specified in such letter and have found such dollar amounts, percentages and other financial and statistical information to be in agreement with such results.

     (b) No Material Adverse Change. Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred (i) any change, or any development or event involving a prospective change, in the financial condition, business, properties or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as one enterprise which, in the judgment of the Representative, is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the offering or the sale of and payment for the Offered Securities; (ii) any downgrading in the rating of any debt securities of the Company by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as defined for purposes of Rule 436(g) under the Securities Act), or any public announcement that any such organization has under surveillance or review its rating of any debt securities of the Company (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of such rating) or any announcement that the Company has been placed on negative outlook; (iii) any substantial change in U.S. or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls as would, in the judgment of the Representative be likely to prejudice materially the success of the proposed issue, sale or distribution of the Offered Securities, whether in the primary market or in respect of dealings in the secondary market; (iv) any material suspension or material limitation of trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange; (v) or any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market; (vi) any banking moratorium declared by U.S. Federal or New York authorities; (vii) any material disruption of settlements of securities or clearance services in the United States; or (viii) any attack on, outbreak or escalation of hostilities or act of terrorism involving the United States, any declaration of war by Congress or any other national or international calamity or emergency if, in the judgment of the Representative, the effect of any such attack, outbreak, escalation, act, declaration, calamity or emergency makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the offering or sale of and payment for the Offered Securities.

     (c) Opinion and 10b-5 Statement of Counsel for Company. The Representative shall have received an opinion and 10b-5 statement, dated the Closing Date, of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, counsel for the Company and the Guarantors in substantially the form of Schedule D.

     (f) Officers’ Certificate. The Representative shall have received a certificate, dated the Closing Date, of the President or any Vice President and a principal financial or accounting officer of the Company in which such officers, in their capacity as officers, to the best of their knowledge after reasonable investigation, shall state that (1) the representations and warranties of the Company and the Guarantors in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (unless expressly stated to relate to a specific earlier date, in which case each of such representations and warranties that is qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect shall be true and correct as of such earlier date, and each of such representations and warranties that is not so qualified shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date) as of the Closing Date; (2) that the Company’s estimates of the effect of acquisitions and related matters, as discussed in, and subject to the risks and assumptions disclosed in, the General Disclosure Package, are reasonable and were prepared in good faith; and (3) that the Company and the Guarantors have complied in all material respects with all agreements and satisfied in all material respects all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to the Closing Date.

     8. Indemnification and Contribution.

     (a) Indemnification of Purchasers. The Company and the Guarantors will jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser, its officers, employees, agents, partners, members, directors and its affiliates and each person, if any, who controls such Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, in each case as amended or supplemented, or any Issuer Free Writing Communication (including with limitation, any Supplemental Marketing Material), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or

alleged omission of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto) whether threatened or commenced and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company and the Guarantors will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Purchaser through the Representative specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below.

     (b) Indemnification of Company. Each Purchaser will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company, the Guarantors and each of their respective directors and each of their respective officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company or such Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Purchaser Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, in each case as amended or supplemented, or any Issuer Free Writing Communication or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Purchaser through the Representative specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Purchaser Indemnified Party is a party thereto) whether threatened or commenced based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Purchaser consists of (i) the following information in the Preliminary Offering Circular and Final Offering Circular furnished on behalf of each Purchaser: under the caption “Plan of Distribution” the second and third sentences of the eleventh paragraph and the twelfth and thirteenth paragraphs; provided, however, that the Purchasers shall not be liable for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of or based upon the Company’s failure to perform its obligations under Section 5(a) of this Agreement.

     (c) Actions against Parties; Notification. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive

rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes (i) an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

     (d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Offered Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Purchasers on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Purchasers from the Company under this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Guarantors or the Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Offered Securities purchased by it were resold exceeds the amount of any damages which such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. The Purchasers’ obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations and not joint. The Company, the Guarantors and the Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were

determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 8(d).

     (e) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Purchasers within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act; and the obligations of the Purchasers under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Purchasers may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

     9. Default of Purchasers. If any Purchaser or Purchasers default in their obligations to purchase Offered Securities hereunder and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Securities that such defaulting Purchaser or Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of Offered Securities, the Representative may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons, including any of the Purchasers, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Date, the non-defaulting Purchasers shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Offered Securities that such defaulting Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase. If any Purchaser or Purchasers so default and the aggregate principal amount of Offered Securities with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total principal amount of Offered Securities and arrangements satisfactory to the Representative and the Company for the purchase of such Offered Securities by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Purchaser or the Company, except as provided in Section 10. As used in this Agreement, the term “Purchaser” includes any person substituted for a Purchaser under this Section. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Purchaser from liability for its default.

     10. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, the Guarantors or their respective officers and of the several Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Purchaser, the Company, the Guarantors or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9 or if for any reason the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers is not consummated, the Company and the Guarantors shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 5 and the respective obligations of the Company, the Guarantors and the Purchasers pursuant to Section 8 shall remain in effect. If the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Purchasers is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 or the occurrence of any event specified in clause (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii) or (viii) of Section 7(b), the Company and the Guarantors will reimburse the Purchasers for all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities.

     11. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Purchasers will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Purchasers, c/o Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10010-3629, Attention: LCD-IBD, or, if sent to the Company or the Guarantors, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to it at WCA Waste Corporation, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇

     12. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and the controlling persons referred to in Section 8, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder, except that holders of Offered Securities shall be entitled to enforce the agreements for their benefit contained in the second and third sentences of Section 5(b) hereof against the Company as if such holders were parties thereto.

     13. Representation of Purchasers. Credit Suisse will act for the several Purchasers in connection with this purchase, and any action under this Agreement taken by Credit Suisse will be binding upon all the Purchasers.

     14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

     In addition, we have participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Obligors, the independent registered public accounting firm for the Obligors, your counsel and your representatives at which the contents of the Disclosure Package and the Offering Circular (including the Incorporated Documents) and related matters were discussed and, although we have not independently verified and are not passing upon, and do not assume any responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package and the Offering Circular (except as and to the extent set forth in paragraphs 5 and 6 above), on the basis of the foregoing (relying with respect to factual matters to the extent we deem appropriate upon statements by officers and other representatives of the Obligors), no facts have come to our attention that have led us to believe that (i) the Disclosure Package (including the Incorporated Documents), as of [____] p.m. (Eastern Time) on May 26, 2011 (which you have informed us is a time prior to the time of the first sale of the Initial Securities by the Initial Purchaser), contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (ii) the Offering Circular (including the Incorporated Documents), as of its date and as of the date hereof, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, it being understood that we express no opinion, statement or belief in this letter with respect to the exhibits to the

Incorporated Documents, (ii) the financial statements and related schedules, including the notes and schedules thereto and the auditor’s report thereon and (iii) any other financial or accounting data, included or incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in, or excluded from, the Offering Circular or the Disclosure Package. Without limiting the foregoing, we call to your attention that (i) the Disclosure Package and the Offering Circular have been prepared in the context of a Rule 144A transaction and not as part of a registration statement under the Securities Act, and (ii) the Disclosure Package and the Offering Circular do not contain all information that would be required in a registration statement under the Securities Act.

     We express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than (i) applicable laws of the State of New York, (ii) applicable laws of the State of Texas, (iii) applicable laws of the United States of America, (iv) certain other specified laws of the United States of America to the extent referred to specifically herein, (v) the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, (vi) the Limited Liability Company Act of the State of Delaware and (vii) the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Delaware. References herein to “applicable laws” mean those laws, rules and regulations that, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Transaction Documents, without our having made any special investigation as to the applicability of any specific law, rule or regulation, and that are not the subject of a specific opinion herein referring expressly to a particular law or laws; provided however, that such references (including, without limitation, those appearing in paragraphs 3 and 4 above) do not include any municipal or other local laws, rules or regulations, or any antifraud, environmental, labor, securities, tax, insurance or antitrust, laws, rules or regulations.

     Our opinions expressed herein are subject to the following additional assumptions and qualifications:

          (i) The opinions set forth in paragraph 1 above as to the valid existence and good standing of the Issuer and the other entities mentioned in such paragraph are based solely upon our review of certificates and other communications from the appropriate public officials.

          (ii) In rendering the opinions set forth in paragraph 3 above regarding Applicable Agreements, we do not express any opinion, however, as to whether the execution or delivery by the Obligors of the Transaction Documents, or the incurrence or performance by any of the Obligors of its obligations thereunder, will constitute a violation of, or a default under or as a result of, any covenant, restriction or provision with respect to any financial ratio or test or any aspect of the financial condition or results of operation of any of the Obligors.

          (iii) The opinion set forth in paragraph 6 above with respect to U.S. federal income tax consequences is based upon our interpretations of current U.S. federal income tax law, including court authority and existing final and temporary U.S. Treasury regulations, which are subject to change both prospectively and retroactively, and upon the assumptions and qualifications discussed herein. We note that such opinion represents merely our best legal judgment on the matters presented and that others may disagree with our conclusion. Such opinion is not binding upon the Internal Revenue Service or courts, and there is no guarantee that the Internal Revenue Service will not successfully challenge our conclusions. No assurance can be given that future legislative, judicial or administrative changes, on either a prospective or retroactive basis, would not adversely affect the accuracy of our conclusions.

          (iv) Treasury Circular 230 Disclosure. This disclosure is provided to comply with Treasury Circular 230. The opinion set forth in paragraph 6 of this letter is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, by any person for the purpose of avoiding tax penalties that may be imposed on the person. Such opinion was written to support the promoting, marketing or recommending of the transactions or matters addressed by this written advice, and the taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer’s particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor. No limitation has been imposed by our firm on disclosure of the tax treatment or tax structure of the transaction.

          (v) Our opinions in paragraphs 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 above may be:

          (1) limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or transfer or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally; and

          (2) subject to the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including, without limitation, the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy and concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.

          (vi) Our opinions in paragraphs 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 insofar as they pertain to the choice of law provisions of the instruments referred to in such paragraphs, are rendered solely in reliance upon New York General Obligations Law Section 5-1401, and are expressly conditioned upon the assumption that the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of said provisions will be determined by a court of the State of New York or a United States federal court sitting in New York and applying New York choice of law rules, including said Section 5-1401. We express no opinion as to any such provision if such legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability is determined by any other court, and we call your attention to the decision of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Brothers Commercial Corp. v. Minmetals Int’l Non-Ferrous Metals Trading Co., 179 F. Supp. 2d 119 (S.D.N.Y. 2000), which, among other things, contains dicta relating to possible constitutional limitations upon said Section 5-1401. We express no opinion as to any such constitutional limitations upon said Section 5-1401 or their effect, if any, upon any opinion herein expressed.

          (vii) We express no opinion as to the validity, effect or enforceability of any provisions:

          (1) purporting to establish evidentiary standards or limitations periods for suits or proceedings to enforce such documents or otherwise, to establish certain determinations (including determinations of contracting parties and judgments of courts) as conclusive or conclusive absent manifest error, to commit the same to the discretion of any Person or permit any Person to act in its sole judgment or to waive rights to notice;

          (2) providing that the assertion or employment of any right or remedy shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy, or that each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other remedy or that any delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall not impair any other right or remedy or constitute a waiver thereof;

          (3) relating to severability or separability;

          (4) purporting to limit the liability of, or to exculpate, any Person, including, without limitation, any provision that purports to waive liability for violation of securities laws;

          (5) purporting to waive damages;

          (6) that relate to indemnification, contribution or reimbursement obligations to the extent any such provisions (i) would purport to require any Person to provide indemnification, contribution or reimbursement in respect of the negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or unlawful or wrongful behavior of any Person, (ii) violate any law, rule or regulation (including any federal or state securities law, rule or regulation) or (iii) are determined to be contrary to public policy;

          (7) purporting to establish any obligation of any party as absolute or unconditional regardless of the occurrence or non-occurrence or existence or non-existence of any event or other state of facts;

          (8) purporting to obligate any party to conform to a standard that may not be objectively determinable or employing items that are vague or have no commonly accepted meaning in the context in which used;

          (9) purporting to require the payment of liquidated damages or additional interest for failure timely to comply with obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, to the extent that payment of the same would constitute a penalty;

          (10) purporting to require that all amendments, waivers and terminations be in writing or the disregard of any course of dealing or usage of trade;

          (11) relating to consent to jurisdiction insofar as such provisions purport to confer subject matter jurisdiction upon any court that does not have such jurisdiction, whether in respect of bringing suit, enforcement of judgments or otherwise;

          (12) purporting to limit the obligations of any party to the extent necessary to avoid such obligations constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance;

          (13) purporting to require disregard of mandatory choice of law principles that could require application of a law other than the law expressly chosen to govern the instrument in which such provisions appear; or

          (14) purporting to waive rights to trial by jury or rights to object to jurisdiction based on inconvenient forum.

          (viii) We express no opinion as to the validity, effect or enforceability of Section 4.06 of the Indenture.

          (ix) In making our examination of executed documents, we have assumed (except to the extent that we expressly opine above) (1) the valid existence and good standing of each of the parties thereto, (2) that such parties had the power and authority, corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other, to enter into and to incur and perform all their obligations thereunder, (3) the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other, and the due execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and (4) to the extent such documents purport to constitute agreements, that each of such documents constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms. In this paragraph (viii), all references to parties to documents shall be deemed to mean and include each of such parties, and each other person (if any) directly or indirectly acting on its behalf.

          (x) Except to the extent that we expressly opine above, we have assumed that the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, and the incurrence and performance of the obligations thereunder of the parties thereto do not and will not contravene, breach, violate or constitute a default under (with the giving of notice, the passage of time or otherwise) (a) the certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership, articles of organization, charter, bylaws, limited liability company agreement, regulations, limited partnership agreement or similar organic document of any such party, (b) any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument, (c) any statute, law, rule, or regulation, (d) any judicial or administrative order or decree of any governmental authority, or (e) any consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, any governmental authority, in each case, to which any party to the Transaction Documents or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties may be subject, or by which any of them may be bound or affected. Further, we have assumed the compliance by each such party, other than the Obligors, with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to it, as well as the compliance by each of the Obligors, and each other person (if any) directly or indirectly acting on its behalf, with all laws, rules and regulations that may be applicable to it by virtue of the particular nature of the business conducted by it or any goods or services produced or rendered by it or property owned, operated or leased by it, or any other facts pertaining specifically to it. In this paragraph (ix), all references to parties to the Transaction Documents, other than the first such reference, shall be deemed to mean and include each of such parties, and each other person (if any) directly or indirectly acting on its behalf.

          (xi) Without limiting the generality of our qualification in clause 0 of paragraph (iv) above, we express no opinion as to the applicability or effect of any preference, fraudulent transfer or conveyance, or similar law (including, without limitation, Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or Article 10 of the New York Debtor Creditor Law) on the Transaction Documents or any transactions contemplated thereby or any opinion expressed herein.

          (xii) We express no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any jurisdiction in which any holder of any Initial Security or Exchange Security is located (other than the State of New York) that limit the interest, fees or other charges such holder may impose for the loan or use of money or other credit.

          (xiii) Except to the extent that we expressly opine above, we have assumed that no authorization, consent or other approval of, notice to or registration, recording or filing with any court, governmental authority or regulatory body (other than routine informational filings, filings under the Securities Act and filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) is required to authorize, or is required in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the execution or delivery thereof by or on behalf of any party thereto or the incurrence or performance by any of the parties thereto of its obligations thereunder.

          (xiv) We advise you that certain of the guaranty and surety waivers contained in the Indenture may be unenforceable in whole or in part.

     This opinion is being furnished only to you in connection with the sale of the Initial Securities under the Purchase Agreement occurring today and is solely for your benefit and is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose or relied upon by any other Person, including any purchaser of any Initial Security from you and any subsequent purchaser of any Initial Security or Exchange Security, without our express written permission. The opinions expressed herein are as of the date hereof only and are based on laws, orders, contract terms and provisions, and facts as of such date, and we disclaim any obligation to update this opinion letter after such date or to advise you of changes of facts stated or assumed herein or any subsequent changes in law.

Opinion of In-House Counsel for Company

[WCA Letterhead]

June 7, 2011

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC
Eleven Ma▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇

          Re: 7.50% Senior Notes due 2019 issued by WCA Waste Corporation

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     I am Vice President and General Counsel of WCA Waste Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), and in such capacity, I have acted as counsel to the Issuer and the subsidiaries of the Issuer in connection with the Purchase Agreement dated May 26, 2011 (the “Purchase Agreement”) among (i) the Issuer, (ii) the subsidiaries of the Issuer named therein as parties thereto, and (iii) Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (the “Initial Purchaser”), relating to the sale by the Issuer to the Initial Purchaser of $175,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s 7.50% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Initial Securities”). The Initial Securities are being issued under an Indenture dated as of June 7, 2011 (the “Indenture”) among the Issuer, the subsidiaries of the Issuer named therein as parties thereto and as guarantors of the Initial Securities (collectively, the “Guarantors”) and BOKF, NA dba Bank of Texas, as trustee. The Issuer and the Guarantors are referred to collectively herein as the “Obligors.”

     The Obligors and the Initial Purchaser have entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated as of June 7, 2011 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Obligors have agreed to file, under certain conditions, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to an offer (the “Exchange Offer”) by the Obligors to the holders of the Initial Securities to issue and deliver to such holders, in exchange for their Initial Securities, a like principal amount of new securities (the “Exchange Securities”) identical to the Initial Securities in all material respects, except that the Exchange Securities will not (except in specified circumstances) be subject to restrictions on transfer.

     I am furnishing this opinion letter to you pursuant to Section 7(d) of the Purchase Agreement.

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, I have examined and relied on originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of the following:

Schedule 1 — Page 4

          (a) the Issuer’s Preliminary Confidential Offering Circular dated May 23, 2011 (the “Preliminary Offering Circular”) relating to the Initial Securities;

          (b) the Issuer’s Confidential Offering Circular dated May 26, 2011 (the “Offering Circular”) relating to the Initial Securities;

          (c) the Issuer’s term sheet dated May 26, 2011, relating to the Initial Securities (the “Pricing Term Sheet” and together with the Preliminary Offering Circular, the “Disclosure Package”);

          (d) each of the Issuer’s reports that have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are incorporated by reference in the Offering Circular (the “Incorporated Documents”);

          (e) the Indenture;

          (f) the form of the Initial Securities and the form of the Exchange Securities;

          (g) the Purchase Agreement; and

          (h) the Registration Rights Agreement.

     I have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such records of the Obligors and such agreements, certificates of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Obligors and others, and such other documents, certificates and records, as I have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein. In my examination, I have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to me as certified or photostatic copies. As to any facts material to the opinions and statements expressed herein that I did not independently establish or verify, I have relied, to the extent I deem appropriate, upon (i) oral or written statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Obligors, (ii) representations made by the Obligors and representations made by the Initial Purchaser in the Purchase Agreement and (iii) statements and certifications of public officials and others.

     As used herein, the following terms have the respective meanings set forth below:

     “Applicable Orders” means every order or decree of any governmental authority of which I am aware and by which any Obligor or any of their respective properties is bound, that is material in relation to the business, operations, affairs, financial condition, assets or properties of the Obligors, considered as a single enterprise.

     “Person” means a natural person or a legal entity organized under the laws of any jurisdiction.

     “Transaction Documents” means collectively, the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Indenture, the Initial Securities and the Exchange Securities.

     Based upon the foregoing and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, I am of the opinion that no Applicable Order has been or will be contravened as a result of (a) the execution and delivery of, or the incurrence or performance by the Obligors of their respective obligations under, each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, each in accordance with its terms, (b) the offering, issuance, sale and delivery of the Initial Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (c) the offering, issuance, exchange and delivery of the Exchange Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement in the manner therein contemplated, (d) the issuance of the guaranties of the Initial Securities by the Guarantors, as set forth in the Indenture, or (e) the

Schedule 1 — Page 5

issuance of the guaranties of the Exchange Securities by the Guarantors, as set forth in the Indenture, at such time as the Exchange Securities are issued pursuant to the Exchange Offer contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement in the manner therein contemplated.

     Furthermore, I advise you that except as disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Offering Circular (including the Incorporated Documents), I am not aware of any action, suit or legal proceeding pending or overtly threatened (by written notice to the Issuer) against or affecting the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties, that, if determined adversely to the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, properties or results of operations of the Issuer and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, or would materially and adversely affect the ability of (a) any of the Obligors to execute or deliver, or the incur or perform it respective obligations under, each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, each in accordance with its terms, (b) the Issuer to offer, issue, sell or deliver of the Initial Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (c) the Issuer to offer, issue, exchange and deliver the Exchange Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement in the manner therein contemplated, (d) each of the Guarantors to issue the guarantee of the Initial Securities by such Guarantor, as set forth in the Indenture, or (e) each of the Guarantors to issue the guarantee of the Exchange Securities by such Guarantor, as set forth in the Indenture, at such time as the Exchange Securities are issued pursuant to the Exchange Offer contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement in the manner therein contemplated.

     I express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than applicable laws of the State of Texas. References herein to “applicable laws” mean those laws, rules and regulations that, in my experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Transaction Documents, without my having made any special investigation as to the applicability of any specific law, rule or regulation, and that are not the subject of a specific opinion herein referring expressly to a particular law or laws; provided, however, that such references do not include any municipal or other local laws, rules or regulations, or any antifraud, environmental, labor, securities, tax, insurance or antitrust laws, rules or regulations.

     Statements in this letter as to my awareness of any matter have been made after such internal inquiry posed to the Issuer’s management as I deemed appropriate, and such statements do not indicate any external investigation of the existence or non-existence of any facts or circumstances.

     This opinion is being furnished only to you in connection with the sale of the Initial Securities under the Purchase Agreement occurring today and is solely for your benefit and is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose or relied upon by any other Person, including any purchaser of any Initial Security from you and any subsequent purchaser of any Initial Security or Exchange Security, without my express written permission. The opinions expressed herein are as of the date hereof only and are based on laws, orders, contract terms and provisions, and facts as of such date, and I disclaim any obligation to update this opinion letter after such date or to advise you of changes of facts stated or assumed herein or any subsequent changes in applicable law.
