 NOW, THEREFORE, THIS NINTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE WITNESSETH: 

The parties hereto mutually covenant and agree as follows: 

SECTION 1.    The Base Indenture is hereby amended solely with respect to the Notes, except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, as follows: 
 (A)    By amending Section 1.01 to replace in whole the following definitions
thereto in lieu of the corresponding existing definitions, so that in the event of a conflict with the definition of terms in the Base Indenture, the following definitions shall control: 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a
maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming that the Notes matured on the applicable Par Call Date) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing
new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes (assuming that the Notes matured on the applicable Par Call Date). 

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (A) the average of six Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations; or (B) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than six such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all
such quotations. 
 “Independent Investment Banker” means one of BofA Securities, Inc. or J.P. Morgan Securities LLC as selected by
the Company, and their respective successors, or if each of such firms is unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company. 

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and its successors. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of BofA Securities, Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and their respective
successors, provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute for such firm another Primary Treasury
Dealer, and (2) up to four additional Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Independent Investment Banker after consultation with the Company. 

“Restricted Subsidiary” means any Subsidiary of the Company which, at the time of determination, owns or is a lessee pursuant to a
capital lease of any Principal Property. 
 “S&P” means S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc., and its
successors. 
 “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the yield, under the heading that represents
the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that 

  
 2 












 
is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and that establishes yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption
“Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the applicable Par Call Date, yields for the two published maturities most closely
corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month) or (2) if such release (or any successor
release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the
Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date. 

(B)    By amending Section 1.01 to add the following new definitions in correct alphabetical order: 

“2030 Notes” has the meaning set forth in the Recitals. 

“2050 Notes” has the meaning set forth in the Recitals. 

“2030 Par Call Date” has the meaning set forth in Section 11.01. 

“2050 Par Call Date” has the meaning set forth in Section 11.01. 

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following after the date of issuance of the Notes:

consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) other than to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries; 
 2.    the
consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, it being
agreed that an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for whom shares are held under an employee stock ownership, employee retirement, employee savings or similar plan and whose shares are voted in accordance with the instructions of
such employee shall not be a member of a “group” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) solely because such employee’s shares are held by a trustee under said plan) becomes the “beneficial owner”
(as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the 

  
 3 












 
Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of the Company’s Voting Stock representing more than 50% of the voting power of its outstanding Voting Stock;

calendar months, the majority of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors shall no longer be composed of individuals (a) who were members of the Company’s Board of Directors on the first day of such period or (b) whose
election or nomination to the Company’s Board of Directors was approved by individuals referred to in clause (a) above constituting, at the time of such election or nomination, at least a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors
or, if directors are nominated by a committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, constituting at the time of such nomination, at least a majority of such committee; or 

5.    the adoption of a plan relating to the Company’s liquidation or dissolution. 

“Change of Control Triggering Event” means, with respect to the relevant series of Notes, such Notes cease to be rated Investment
Grade by each of the Rating Agencies on any date during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing 60 days prior to the first public announcement by the Company of any Change of Control (or pending Change of Control) and ending 60 days
following consummation of such Change of Control (which Trigger Period will be extended following consummation of a Change of Control for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible ratings change).
If a Rating Agency is not providing a rating for the relevant series of Notes at the commencement of any Trigger Period, such Notes will be deemed to have ceased to be rated Investment Grade by such Rating Agency during that Trigger Period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated. 

  
 4

credit rating from any replacement rating agency or rating agencies selected by the Company under the circumstances permitting the Company to select a replacement agency and in the manner for selecting a replacement agency, in each case as set forth
in the definition of “Rating Agency.” 
 “Notes” has the meaning set forth in the Recitals. 

“Par Call Date” means either the 2030 Par Call Date or the 2050 Par Call Date, as the case may be. 

“Rating Agency” means each of Moody’s and S&P; provided, that if either of Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the 2030
Notes or the 2050 Notes, as applicable, or fails to make a rating of the relevant series of Notes publicly available for reasons outside the Company’s control, the Company may appoint another “nationally recognized statistical rating
organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act as a replacement for such Rating Agency; provided, that the Company shall give notice of such appointment to the Trustee. 

“Voting Stock” of any specified Person as of any date means the capital stock of such Person that is at the time entitled to vote
generally in the election of the board of directors of such Person. 
 (C)    By amending Section 4.01 by adding
the following sentence at the end of thereof: 
 “Both Section 4.02 (defeasance and discharge) and Section 4.03 (covenant
defeasance) shall apply to each of the 2030 Notes and the 2050 Notes.” 
 (D)    By replacing Section 4.03 in
its entirety with the following:

set forth in Section 4.04 below are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”), and the Defeased Securities shall thereafter be deemed to be not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or
declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder, and the Events of Default under Section 5.01(c),
(d) and (e) shall cease to be in full force and effect with respect to such Notes. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Defeased Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability
in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any 

  
 5 












 
such Section, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any
other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 5.01(c), (d) and (e) but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Defeased Securities shall be
unaffected thereby.” 
 (E)    By amending Section 9.01 by: 

 

	 	(a)	 deleting the period at the end of clause (m) and inserting the following: “; and”; and



  

	 	(b)	 inserting the following clause after clause (m): 



“(n) to add additional Securities of the same class and series in one or more tranches from time to time.”

(G)    By inserting after the first sentence in Section 3.01 the following: 

“The aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be issued under this Indenture shall be unlimited and the Company may issue additional
notes of the same class and series as any of the Notes (the “Additional Notes”) in one or more tranches from time to time, without notice to or the consent of existing Holders of the Securities of any series, including the Notes. The
Additional Notes shall have the same terms as all other Notes of the same class and series and all references to the Notes in the Indenture shall be deemed to also refer to the Additional Notes. The Additional Notes shall vote as a class with all
other Notes of such same class and series as to matters as to which such Notes have a vote.”

following:

Paying Agent appointed by the Company) in the Borough of Manhattan, such delivery being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Change of Control Payment therefor; provided that such Change of Control Payment shall be so paid pursuant to this

REPUBLIC SERVICES, INC. 
 2.300%
Notes due 2030 
 This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company designated as its 2.300% Notes due 2030
(herein called the “Securities”), limited (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture referred to below) in aggregate principal amount to $600,000,000, issued under and subject to the terms of an indenture (herein called the
“Indenture”) dated as of November 25, 2009, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented by
a Ninth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 27, 2020, between the Company and the Trustee to which the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of
rights, duties, obligations and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. 

Prior to December 1, 2029 (three months prior to their Stated Maturity) (the “Par Call Date”), the Securities may be redeemed,
as a whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at any time or from time to time at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and (2) the sum of the present values of the
remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (assuming such Securities matured on the Par Call Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate, plus 15 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, if any (subject to the right
of holders of record of such Securities on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date). On or after the Par Call Date, the Securities may be redeemed in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at any time or
from time to time at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, if any (subject to the right of holders of record of such
Securities on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date). 
 Any redemption may be made upon not less
than 15 and not more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders thereof as provided in the Indenture. 
 If less than all of the Securities
are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select, not more than 60 nor less than 15 days before the Redemption Date, the Securities or portions thereof to be redeemed, by such method the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. 

In the case of any redemption of Securities in accordance with the Indenture, interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to
the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities of record as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date or Special Record Date referred to on the face hereof. Securities (or portions thereof) for whose
redemption and payment provision is made in accordance with the Indenture shall cease to bear interest from and after the Redemption Date. 

  
 A-1-5 












 In the event of a redemption or repurchase of this Security in accordance with the Indenture
in part only, a new Security or Securities for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Securities, unless the Company has exercised its right to
redeem the Securities pursuant to Article XI of the Indenture, each Holder of the Securities shall have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such
Holder’s Security pursuant to Article XIV of the Indenture. 
 If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal
amount of all the Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture
contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire Indebtedness on the Securities and (b) certain covenants and Defaults and Events of Default, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein. 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions (including certain amendments permitted without the consent of any Holders and certain
amendments which require the consent of all of the Holders) as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders under the Indenture and the Securities at any time
by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding that are affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of at
least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities (100% of the Holders in certain circumstances) at the time Outstanding that are affected, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with
certain provisions of the Indenture and the Securities of such series and certain past Defaults and Events of Default under the Indenture and the Securities and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by or on behalf of the Holder of this
Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such
consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture
shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company or any other obligor on the Securities (in the event such other obligor is obligated to make payments in respect of the Securities), which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of,
and premium, if any, and interest on, this Security at the times, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 
 As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the
Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or its attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

  
 A-1-6 












 The Securities in certificated form are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of
a differing authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 Except as indicated in the Indenture, no service
charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 

A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations under the Securities or
the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the
issue of the Securities. 
 Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent
of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary. 
 THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT
GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF. 
 All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture and not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
