1.01.&#160; Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On December 28, 2005, Casella Waste Systems,
Inc. completed a financing transaction pursuant to which the Company incurred
indebtedness in the aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000.&#160; The transaction involved the issuance by the
Finance Authority of Maine (the &#147;Authority&#148;) of $25,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of its Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Bonds (Casella Waste Systems, Inc.
Project) Series 2005 (the &#147;Bonds&#148;).&#160; The
Bonds are issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of December 1, 2005 (the
&#147;Indenture&#148;) and are enhanced by an irrevocable, transferable direct-pay letter
of credit issued by Bank of America, N.A.&#160;
Pursuant to a Financing Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2005, by and
between the Company and the Authority, the Company has borrowed the proceeds of
the Bonds to pay for certain costs relating to (i) landfill development and
construction, vehicle, container and related equipment acquisition for solid
waste collection and transportation services, improvements to existing solid
waste disposal, hauling, transfer station and other facilities, other
infrastructure improvements, and machinery and equipment for solid waste
disposal operations owned and operated by the Company, or a related party, all
located in Maine; and (ii) the issuance of the Bonds.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Principal, premium, if any, and interest on
the Bonds will be payable (1) from drawings under the letter of credit and (2)
from loan repayments received by the Authority and the trustee from the Company
pursuant to the Financing Agreement.&#160; The
Company has agreed to reimburse Bank of America, N.A. for any drawings under
the letter of credit.&#160; The Bonds will
mature, subject to optional and mandatory redemption, on January 1, 2025, and
will bear interest on the unpaid principal amount at a variable rate or a term
interest rate, as elected by the Company.&#160;
During any variable interest rate period, the Bonds will be purchased at
the option of the holders thereof at a price of 100% of the principal amount
thereof plus accrued interest.&#160; In
addition, on any conversion date of any new interest rate period for the Bonds
and on certain other dates specified in the Bonds, each holder is required to
tender the Bonds held by it for purchase and the Bonds will be purchased.&#160; Banc of America Securities LLC, as
remarketing agent for the Bonds, is required to use its best efforts to resell
any Bonds tendered for purchase to new purchasers.&#160; Funds for the payment of the purchase price
of any Bonds so purchased will be paid from the proceeds of any such resale or,
to the extent such funds are insufficient, from the proceeds of the letter of
credit or from payments by the Company.&#160;
The Bonds are also subject to mandatory redemption upon a determination
of the invalidity of the Financing Agreement or a determination of taxability,
and may be redeemed at the option of the Company upon the occurrence of certain
events.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Financing Agreement and other transaction
documents contain standard representations, covenants and events of default for
facilities of this type, including acceleration of indebtedness upon certain
events of default.&#160; Events of default
under the Financing Agreement include a failure to make any loan payment or
purchase price payment when due; the failure to observe and perform covenants
which continues for a period of 60 days after notice; dissolution or
liquidation; and an event of default under the Indenture, including the receipt
of notice of the occurrence of an event of default under the reimbursement
agreement entered into by the Company in connection with the letter of credit,
and directing the trustee under the Indenture to accelerate the Bonds.&#160; The Company believes that the financing
transaction will have the effect of reducing its interest expense to the extent
of the principal amount of the Bonds.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">This Current
Report on Form&nbsp;8-K and other reports, proxy statements, and other
communications to stockholders, as well as oral statements by the Company&#146;s
officers or its agents, may contain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section&nbsp;27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section&nbsp;21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, with respect to, among other things,
the Company&#146;s future revenues, expenses, operating income, or earnings per
share.&#160; Without limiting the foregoing,
any statements contained in this Current Report on Form&nbsp;8-K that are not
statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements,
and the words &#147;believes&#148;, &#147;anticipates&#148;, &#147;plans&#148;, &#147;expects&#148;, and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.&#160; There are a number of important factors of
which the Company is aware that may cause the Company&#146;s actual results to vary
materially from those forecasted or projected in any such forward-looking
statement, certain of which are beyond the Company&#146;s control.&#160; These factors include, without limitation,
the Company&#146;s ability to successfully reduce interest expense as a result of
the transaction disclosed herein as well as those outlined in the section&nbsp;entitled
&#147;Certain Factors That May&nbsp;Affect Future Results&#148; in the Company&#146;s Form&nbsp;10-Q
for the period ended October&nbsp;31, 2005.&#160;
The Company&#146;s failure to successfully address any of these factors could
have a material adverse effect on the Company&#146;s results of operations.</font></p>

Indenture, this Agreement and the Bonds shall not constitute a debt or
liability of or a pledge of the faith and credit of the Authority, the State,
any political subdivisions thereof, or any municipality therein.&#160; Nothing herein, in the Indenture or in the
Bonds, shall directly, indirectly or contingently obligate the Authority, the
State any political subdivision thereof or any municipality to levy or pledge

monitor the financial condition of the Company, the investment or expenditure
of Bond proceeds, or the physical condition or use of the Project and, unless
otherwise expressly provided, shall not have any responsibility with respect to
notices, certificates or other documents filed with it.&#160; The Authority shall not be required to take
notice of any breach or default except when given notice thereof by the Trustee
or the Holders, as the case may be.&#160; The
Authority shall not be responsible for the payment of any rebate to the United
States under IRC &#167; 148(f).&#160; The Authority
shall not be required to take any action unless indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to it is furnished for expenses or liability to be incurred
therein (other than the giving of notice).&#160;
The Authority, upon written request of the Holders or the Trustee, and
upon receipt of reasonable indemnity for expenses or liability, shall cooperate
to the extent reasonably necessary to enable the Trustee to exercise any power
granted to the Trustee by this Agreement or the Indenture.&#160; The Authority shall be entitled to

of counsel (who may be counsel for any party or for any Holder) and shall be

reliance on such advice.&#160; The Authority
may rely conclusively on any notice, certificate or other document furnished to
it under this Agreement or the Indenture and reasonably believed by it to be
genuine.&#160; The Authority shall not be
liable for any action taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it
to be within the discretion or power conferred upon it, or in good faith
omitted to be taken by it and reasonably believed to be beyond such discretion
or power, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or instruction by which it
is governed under this Agreement or the Indenture or omitted to be taken by it
by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required for such action
under this Agreement or the Indenture, or be responsible for the consequences
of any error of judgment reasonably made by it.&#160;
When any payment, consent or other action by the Authority is called for
by this Agreement or the Indenture, the Authority may defer such action pending
such investigation or inquiry or receipt of such evidence, if any, as it may
reasonably require in support thereof.&#160; A
permissive right or power to act shall not be construed as a requirement to
act, and no delay in the exercise of a right or power shall affect the subsequent
exercise thereof.&#160; The Authority shall in
no event be liable for the application or misapplication of funds, or for other
acts or defaults by any person or entity except by its own directors, officers
and employees.&#160; No recourse shall be had
by the Company, the Trustee or any Holder for any claim based on this Agreement
or the Indenture or the Bonds against any director, officer, employee or agent
of the Authority unless such claim is based upon the willful misconduct, bad
faith, fraud or deceit of such person.&#160;

Agreement or the Indenture shall be deemed to be a covenant, obligation or
