the Company also discloses earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for accretion, depletion of landfill operating lease obligations, gain on sale of assets, development project charge write-offs, legal settlement
costs, tax settlement costs, bargain purchase gains, asset impairment charges, environmental remediation charges, severance and reorganization costs, (income) expenses from divestiture, acquisition and financing costs, gains on the settlement of
acquisition related contingent consideration, fiscal year-end transition costs, as well as losses on divestiture (Adjusted EBITDA) which is a non-GAAP measure. The Company also discloses Free Cash Flow, which is defined as net cash provided by
operating activities, less capital expenditures (excluding acquisition related capital expenditures), less payments on landfill operating leases, less assets acquired through financing leases, plus proceeds from the sale of property and equipment,
plus contributions from non-controlling interest holders, which is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to net income (loss) as presented above, while Free Cash Flow is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities as

Current Senior Credit Facility (defined below), the indenture governing the Company&#146;s 7.75% senior subordinated notes due 2019 and the ABL Facility, if consummated, use EBITDA (with additional adjustments) to measure the Company&#146;s

million aggregate principal amount of 7.75% senior subordinated notes due 2019 (the &#147;Notes&#148;) pursuant to the Company&#146;s effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No.&nbsp;333-200784). The Notes are being offered as additional
notes under the indenture, dated as of February&nbsp;7, 2011 (the &#147;Indenture&#148;), pursuant to which the Company previously issued $325.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.75% senior subordinated notes due 2019. The Notes Offering is

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the closing of the Notes Offering, the Company expects to enter into a new senior secured asset-based revolving credit and letter of
credit facility (the &#147;ABL Facility&#148;) to refinance the Company&#146;s existing senior revolving credit and letter of credit facility due March&nbsp;18, 2016, entered into on March&nbsp;18, 2011 and amended as of April&nbsp;12,
2012,&nbsp;September&nbsp;20, 2012 and June&nbsp;25, 2013 (the &#147;Current Senior Credit Facility&#148;). The Company expects that the ABL Facility, under which the Company and its subsidiaries (subject to certain exceptions) will be co-borrowers
or guarantors, will provide for revolving loans and letters of credit in the aggregate amount of at least $175.0 million, subject to availability under a borrowing base formula. The Company expects to have the right to increase aggregate commitments
under the ABL Facility by up to $100.0 million, provided that the Company is not in default at the time of increase and all other conditions in the governing documents have been met, subject to the receipt of commitments from lenders for such
additional amount. Certain financial institutions, including affiliates of certain of the underwriters of the Notes Offering, have provided commitments on the terms and subject to the conditions stated in their letters, which commitments, in
aggregate, equal or exceed the minimum targeted size of the ABL Facility. The Company believes that agreement in principle has been reached with the lenders on the terms and conditions for the ABL Facility. The effectiveness of the ABL Facility is
expected to occur upon the final approval by the Company and the lenders, subject to definitive agreements and the Company&#146;s satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the Company&#146;s delivery of title insurance for mortgaged
properties and a borrowing base report showing that the sum of availability under the ABL Facility (the borrowing base minus outstanding borrowings and letters of credit) plus up to $6.0 million of unused restricted cash comprised of proceeds of the
New York Bonds is not less than $32.5 million after giving effect to the initial funding. We cannot assure you that the ABL Facility will become effective or, if it becomes effective, on what terms. The closing of the Notes Offering is not
contingent upon the effectiveness of the ABL Facility. The effectiveness of the ABL Facility is expected to be contingent upon the closing of the Notes Offering. </P>

value of eligible inventory and (ii)&nbsp;$2.5 million; plus (c)&nbsp;the lesser of (i)&nbsp;125% of the net book value of eligible vehicles and (ii)&nbsp;85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible vehicles; plus (d)&nbsp;the lesser of

adjustment amounts with respect to real estate included in the borrowing base; minus (g)(i) if borrowing base real estate is greater than $25.0 million, an amount equal to any excess over 100% of net book value of eligible equipment, vehicles and

the applicable interest margin. The applicable interest margin for loans under the ABL Facility is expected to be determined based on the Company&#146;s ratio of consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the ABL Facility,
and is expected to range from 1.75%&nbsp;per annum to 2.50%&nbsp;per annum for LIBOR rate loans and 0.75%&nbsp;per annum to 1.50%&nbsp;per annum for base rate loans. The interest rate otherwise payable under the ABL Facility is expected to be

liabilities and results of operations of CARES into the Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements. At April&nbsp;30, 2014, the Company determined that certain assets of CARES were no longer operational and initiated a plan to shut down the
operations of CARES, resulting in an impairment charge of $7.5 million. The remaining book value of the assets of CARES at December&nbsp;31, 2014 was $0.7 million. The Company is currently negotiating to sell the remaining assets of CARES for total
consideration of $3.5 million, resulting in a gain on sale of assets of up to $2.8 million, 49% of which will be attributable to its noncontrolling interest partner. In connection with this transaction, the Company also plans to sell certain
wholly-owned equipment and real estate to the same buyer for total consideration of $1.1 million, resulting in a gain on sale of assets of up to $1.1 million. The Company expects to complete this transaction in the first quarter of fiscal year 2015.
The foregoing description of the CARES transaction is an overview of the transaction as currently anticipated and is subject to execution and delivery of definitive documentation. The Company cannot assure that the CARES transaction will be
consummated or, if it is consummated, on what terms. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Southbridge Landfill Environmental Remediation Settlement </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As previously reported, on or about August&nbsp;24, 2013, the Company experienced the movement of stockpiled earth at its Southbridge landfill
in Southbridge, Massachusetts. The stockpiled materials consisted of soil removed and relocated to create space for the construction of additional landfill airspace at the landfill. The earth had been relocated and stored during the fall, winter and
spring construction seasons of fiscal year 2013. The movement caused some of the stockpiled earth to enter wetlands on property owned by the Company. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company has reached agreement on the terms of a Consent Judgment with the Massachusetts Attorney General (&#147;MAAG&#148;), which was
approved by the Superior Court of Massachusetts on December&nbsp;10, 2014. The settlement requires the Company to pay a civil penalty of $0.2 million to the MAAG (with fifty thousand dollars suspended pending satisfactory completion of remediation
at the Southbridge landfill, which work has been satisfactorily completed) and twenty thousand dollars to the Town of Charlton, where the affected wetlands were located. This matter is now closed with respect to the MAAG, other than on-going
compliance. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company anticipates that the execution of the remediation plan, including resolution of the MAAG matter as discussed
above and related matters outside the scope of the MAAG matter, will involve remediation costs of approximately $3.6 million, and that such costs could be higher if actual costs exceed estimates. Of such $3.6&nbsp;million, the Company has incurred
costs of approximately $3.4&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2014, and anticipates spending an additional approximately $0.2&nbsp;million for final site work completion. The Company has provided its insurer with notice of the plan. The Company
has entered into settlement </P>

agreements and releases with the contractor and technical advisor that provided services at the site and with its insurance company. The contractor, Casella Construction, Inc. (&#147;CCI&#148;),
which continued to perform work for the Company at the Southbridge landfill to assist in the remediation of the site, has agreed to contribute $0.7 million in cash and non-compensable services. CCI is owned by John Casella, the Company&#146;s Chief
Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors, and Doug Casella, a member of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors. The technical advisor, Geosyntec Consultants, Inc. (&#147;GCI&#148;) has agreed to contribute $1.3 million
to the Company&#146;s costs in cash. The Company&#146;s insurer, Steadfast Insurance Company (&#147;Steadfast&#148;) has contributed $0.2 million to the Company&#146;s costs in cash, and waived its rights of subrogation against all third parties.
Accordingly, the Company believes that the residual loss to the Company will be approximately $1.4&nbsp;million, including the resolution of the MAAG matter as discussed above, and after undertaking certain additional site work outside the scope of
the MAAG matter and accounting for contributions from CCI, GCI, and Steadfast. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a charge of $1.0 million in transition period 2014 as an environmental remediation charge. The Company had previously recorded a
charge of $0.4 million in fiscal year 2014 as an environmental remediation charge. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Completion of Biofuels Site Improvements </I></B></P>

(&#147;Biofuels&#148;), a construction and demolition material processing facility located in Lewiston, Maine, that the Company divested in the first quarter of fiscal year 2014. In connection with the divestiture, the Company agreed to complete
certain site improvements at Biofuels, which improvements were completed in December 2014. The income is the result of unwinding excess remaining reserves to complete the site improvements. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of October&nbsp;31, 2014, Casella Waste System, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) had approximately $525.1 million of outstanding principal
indebtedness and approximately $200.1 million aggregate principal amount of senior indebtedness (excluding $27.1 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under the Company&#146;s senior revolving credit and letter of credit facility due
March&nbsp;18, 2016, entered into on March&nbsp;18, 2011 and amended as of April&nbsp;12, 2012,&nbsp;September&nbsp;20, 2012 and June&nbsp;25, 2013 (the &#147;Current Senior Credit Facility&#148;)) and an additional $56.1 million of unused
commitments under the Current Senior Credit Facility. As of October&nbsp;31, 2014, assuming (i)&nbsp;the consummation of the underwritten public offering of $60.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.75% senior subordinated notes due 2019 (the
&#147;Notes Offering&#148;), (ii)&nbsp;the execution and initial funding of a new senior revolving credit and letter of credit facility (the &#147;ABL Facility&#148;), (iii)&nbsp;the December&nbsp;18, 2014 sale of $25.0 million aggregate principal
amount of the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Bonds (Casella Waste Systems, Inc. Project) Series 2014 (the &#147;New York Bonds&#148;) and the application of $18.1 million of the net proceeds
therefrom to repay borrowings under the Current Senior Credit Facility and (iv)&nbsp;the application of net proceeds from the Notes Offering, together with initial borrowings under the ABL Facility, to refinance the Current Senior Credit Facility,
in each case after payment of estimated transaction costs, fees and expenses and, in each case, as if it had occurred on that date, the Company and the guarantors would have had approximately $538.4 million of outstanding principal indebtedness and
approximately $153.4 million aggregate principal amount of senior indebtedness (excluding $27.1 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under the ABL Facility) and an additional $48.4&nbsp;million of unused availability under the ABL
Facility based on an estimated borrowing base at December 31, 2014 of approximately $148.0&nbsp;million. As of October&nbsp;31, 2014, the Company&#146;s non-guarantor subsidiaries would have had no indebtedness other than intercompany indebtedness.
The Company&#146;s total debt was $21.2 million higher as of February 4, 2015 than the amount at October&nbsp;31, 2014. (i) $6.9 million of the increase in total debt is attributable to the Company&#146;s issuance of $25.0 million of the New York
Bonds on December 18, 2014, from which $18.1 million of the net proceeds was used to repay borrowings under the Current Senior Credit Facility, $5.8 million was reserved as restricted cash to repay expected future borrowings under the ABL Facility
used to finance certain capital projects pursuant to the terms of the documents governing the New York Bonds and the remainder was used to fund expenses related to the issuance of the New York Bonds. (ii) The increase in total debt is also
attributable to a net increase in borrowings of $14.5 million under the Current Senior Credit Facility reflecting ordinary course working capital fluctuations and the payment of certain expenses incurred in connection with the Notes Offering and
negotiation of the ABL Facility. (iii) The remainder of the change in total debt is attributable to a $0.2 million reduction in total debt attributable to payments on capital leases and other debt items. </P>
