Employment Agreement

 EXHIBIT 10.4 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the
“Agreement”) is made and entered into on this 18th day of June, 2012, but effective as of the date set forth below, by and between Waste Management, Inc. (the “Company”) and John Morris (the “Executive”). 

1. Employment. 
 The Company shall employ Executive, and Executive shall be employed by the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. 

Subject to Section 18 below, Executive acknowledges and represents that, any and all prior employment agreements,
including without limitation that certain Employment Agreement between he and Waste Management of New Jersey, Inc. dated or about April 9, 2007, is terminated, and that any and all obligations of the Company created thereunder, whether express
or implied, are null and void and of no further force or effect, and that the only rights, obligations and duties between the Company and Executive are those expressly set forth in this Agreement. 

2. Term of Employment. 
 The period of Executive’s employment under this Agreement began on March 18, 2012 (“Employment Date”), and may be terminated by either party pursuant to Section 5 below. The
period during which Executive is employed hereunder shall be referred to as the “Employment Period.” 

3. Duties and Responsibilities. 

(a) Executive shall serve as the Company’s Chief Strategy Officer. In such capacity, Executive shall perform
such duties and have the power, authority, and functions consistent with such position, as may be deemed appropriate for the position and assigned to Executive from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors (the
“Board”) of the Company. 
 (b) Executive shall devote substantially all of his working time,
attention and energies to the business of the Company, and its affiliated entities. Executive may make and manage his personal investments (provided such investments in other activities do not violate, in any material respect, the provisions of
Section 10 of this Agreement), be involved in charitable and professional activities, and, with the prior written consent of the Board, serve on boards of other for profit entities, provided such activities do not materially interfere with the
performance of his duties hereunder or create a conflict of interest (however, the Board does not typically allow officers to serve on more than one public company board at a time). 

 4. Compensation and Benefits. 

(a) Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the Company shall pay Executive a base salary at the annual rate of
Three Hundred Twenty Thousand and 00/100ths Dollars ($320,000.00) per year, or such higher rate as may be determined from time to time by the Company (“Base Salary”). Such Base Salary shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s
standard payroll practice for its executive officers. Once increased, Base Salary shall not be reduced except by mutual agreement. 
 (b) Annual Bonus. During the Employment Period, Executive will be entitled to participate in an annual incentive compensation plan of the Company, as established by the Management Development and
Compensation Committee (“Compensation Committee”) of the Board from time to time. Executive’s target annual bonus under this Agreement will be sixty percent (60%) of his Base Salary in effect for such year (the “Target
Bonus”), and his actual annual bonus may range from 0% to 120% of Base Salary (i.e., a maximum possible bonus of two times the Target Bonus), and will be determined based upon (i) the achievement of certain corporate financial
and/or performance goals, as may be established and approved from time to time by the Compensation Committee of the Board, and (ii) the achievement of personal performance goals as may be established by Executive’s immediate supervisor.
Executive’s annual bonus for calendar year 2012 will be prorated between the time he spent as Vice-President for the Greater Mid-Atlantic Market Area (using the applicable financial and operational performance objectives, salary, and target
bonus) and the time he spent as Chief Strategy Officer. The annual bonus will be paid at such time and in such manner as set forth in the annual incentive compensation plan document. 

(c) Benefit Plans and Vacation. Subject to the terms of such plans, Executive shall be eligible to participate in
or receive benefits under any profit sharing plan, salary deferral plan, medical and dental benefits plan, life insurance plan, short-term and long-term disability plans, or any other health, welfare or fringe benefit plan, generally made available
by the Company to similarly-situated executive employees. The Company shall not be obligated to institute, maintain, or refrain from changing, amending, or discontinuing any benefit plan, so long as such changes are similarly applicable to
similarly-situated employees generally. 
 During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to vacation
each year in accordance with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time, but in no event less than four (4) weeks paid vacation per calendar year. Vacation not taken in the calendar year in which it is granted cannot be carried
forward to any subsequent year. 
 (d) Expense Reimbursement. The Company shall promptly reimburse
Executive for the ordinary and necessary business expenses incurred by Executive in the performance of his duties hereunder in accordance with the Company’s customary practices applicable to executive officers. The reimbursement of expenses
during a year will not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other year. In no event shall any expense be reimbursed after the last day of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred. 

  
 2 

 (e) Other Perquisites. Executive shall be entitled to all perquisites
provided to Senior Vice Presidents of the Company as approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board, and as they may exist from time to time. 
 (f) Relocation to Houston. Upon the Employment Date, Executive will relocate his residence to the Houston, Texas area. Executive’s relocation of his residence to Houston will be
eligible for coverage under the “Plan 2 – GBO Guaranteed Offer Program” of the Company’s relocation policy. Executive must execute that certain Employee Repayment Agreement with the Company’s relocation provider in order to
be eligible to receive reimbursement for any relocation expenses. 
 It is expressly agreed that should Executive
resign without “Good Reason” (as that term is defined in Section 5(d) below) or is terminated “For Cause” (as that term is defined in Section 5(c) below) during the twelve-month period following the Employment Date,
then Executive shall be required to reimburse the Company for one hundred percent (100%) of the relocation expenses paid by the Company to or on behalf of Executive. 

The parties further agree that during such time as Executive serves as Chief Strategy Officer, he will not be required to
relocate his residence from the Houston, Texas area prior to June 30, 2016. In the event that the Company requests Executive to relocate his residence from the Houston, Texas area prior to June 30, 2016, and should Executive decline to do
so, then the Company may at its sole discretion elect to terminate Executive’s employment “Without Cause” under Section 5(e) below and Executive shall be provided (i) the compensation and benefits set forth in
Section 6(e) or Section 7(a) below (as the case may be) and (ii) relocation back to New Jersey under the Company’s then existing “Plan 2 – GBO Guaranteed Offer Program” of the Company’s relocation policy. The
parties understand and further agree that should Executive be offered and accept another position within the Company, relocation from the Houston, Texas area may be required. 

5. Termination of Employment. 

Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated during the Employment Period under the following circumstances:

 (a) Death. Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon Executive’s death.

 (b) Total Disability. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment hereunder upon
Executive’s becoming “Totally Disabled.” For purposes of this Agreement, Executive shall be considered “Totally Disabled” if Executive has become physically or mentally disabled so as to render Executive incapable of
performing the essential functions of his position (with or without reasonable accommodations) and such disability is expected to result in death or to last for a continuous period of at least 12 months, provided that such condition constitutes a
“disability” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. Executive’s receipt of disability benefits under the Company’s long-term disability plan or receipt of Social Security disability benefits shall
be deemed conclusive evidence of Total Disability for purpose of this Agreement. 

  
 3 

 (c) Termination by the Company for Cause. The Company may

refusal to perform Executive’s employment duties reasonably requested by the Company after receipt of written notice to Executive of such failure to perform, specifying such failure (other than as a result of Executive’s sickness, illness
or injury) and Executive’s failure to cure such nonperformance within ten (10) days of receipt of said written notice; (B) breach of any statutory or common law duty of loyalty to the Company; (C) conviction of, or plea of
nolo contendre to, any felony; (D) willful or intentional cause of material injury to the Company, its property, or its assets; (E) disclosure or attempted disclosure to any unauthorized person(s) of the Company’s proprietary

then in effect; or (G) breach of any of the covenants set forth in Section 10 hereof. 

  

	 	(ii)	 For purposes of this Agreement, the phrase “Notice of Termination for Cause” shall mean a written notice that shall indicate the specific
termination provision or provisions in Section 5(c)(i) relied upon, and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances which provide the basis for termination for Cause. 

(d) Voluntary Termination by Executive. Executive may terminate his employment hereunder with or without
Good Reason at any time upon written notice to the Company. 
  

	 	(i)	 A termination for “Good Reason” means a resignation of employment by Executive by written notice (“Notice of Termination for Good
Reason”) given to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of the Good Reason event, unless such circumstances are substantially corrected prior to the date of termination specified in the
Notice of Termination for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence or failure to cause the occurrence, as the case may be, without Executive’s express written consent, of any of the
following circumstances: (A) the Company materially diminishes Executive’s core duties or responsibility for those core duties, so as to effectively cause Executive to no longer be performing the duties of his position (except in each case
in connection with the termination of Executive’s employment for Death, Total Disability, or Cause, or temporarily as a result of Executive’s illness or other absence); (B) in the event of the Company’s becoming a fifty percent
or more subsidiary of any other entity, the 

  
 4 

	 	 
Company materially diminishes the duties, authority or responsibilities of the person to whom Executive is required to report; (C) removal or the non-reelection of the Executive from the
officer position with the Company specified herein, or removal of the Executive from any of his then officer positions; (D) any material breach by the Company of any provision of this Agreement; or (E) failure of any successor to the
Company (whether direct or indirect and whether by merger, acquisition, consolidation or otherwise) to assume in a writing delivered to Executive upon the assignee becoming such, the obligations of the Company hereunder, resulting in a material
negative change in the employment relationship. 

  

	 	(ii)	 A “Notice of Termination for Good Reason” shall mean a notice that shall indicate the specific termination provision or provisions relied
upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for Termination for Good Reason. The Notice of Termination for Good Reason shall provide for a date of termination not less than thirty
(30) nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such Notice of Termination for Good Reason is given, provided that in the case of the events set forth in Sections 5(d)(i)(A) or (B), the date may be twenty (20) days after the giving
of such notice. 

 (e) Termination by the Company without Cause. The Company may
terminate Executive’s employment hereunder without Cause at any time upon written notice to Executive.

the terms of such plans, policies and arrangements. 

 (e) Termination by the Company
Without Cause Outside a Change in Control Period; Termination by Executive for Good Reason Outside a Change in Control Period. In the event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company outside a Change in Control Period (as
defined in Section 7 below) for reasons other than death, Total Disability or Cause, or Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason outside of a Change in Control Period, the Company shall pay the following amounts to Executive:

  

	 	(i)	 Any accrued but unpaid Base Salary for services rendered to the date of termination, any accrued but unpaid expenses required to be reimbursed under
this Agreement, any accrued but unused vacation to the date of termination, and any earned but unpaid bonuses for any prior calendar year. 

  

	 	(ii)	 Any benefits accrued through the date of termination to which Executive may be entitled pursuant to the plans, policies and arrangements referred to

	 	(iv)	 Subject to Executive’s execution of the Release (as defined in Section 7), an amount equal to two (2) times the sum of
Executive’s Base Salary plus his Target Annual Bonus (in each case, as then in effect), of which one-half of such amount shall be paid in a lump sum within the calendar quarter in which the 60th day following Executive’s employment termination date falls and
one-half of such amount shall be paid during the two (2) year period beginning in the calendar quarter within which the 60th day following Executive’s employment termination date falls and continuing at the same time and in the same
manner as Base Salary would have been paid if Executive had remained in active employment until the end of such period. 

  

	 	(v)	 Subject to Executive’s execution of the Release (as defined in Section 7) and Executive’s completion of required enrollment
elections, the Company will continue for Executive and Executive’s spouse and eligible dependents coverage under the Company’s health benefit plan and disability benefit plans, in which Executive was a participant at any time during the
twelve-month period prior to the date of termination, until the earliest to occur of (A) twenty-four (24) months after the employment termination date; (B) Executive’s death (provided that benefits provided to Executive’s
spouse and dependents shall not terminate until 

  
 7 

 
twenty-four (24) months after the employment termination date); or (C) with respect to any particular plan, the date Executive becomes eligible to participate in a comparable benefit
provided by a subsequent employer. In the event that Executive’s continued participation in any such Company plan is prohibited, the Company will arrange to provide Executive with benefits substantially similar to those which Executive would
have been entitled to receive under this paragraph on a basis which provides Executive with no additional after-tax cost. 
 (f) Suspension and Refund of Termination Benefits for Subsequently Discovered Cause. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if within one (1) year of Executive’s
employment termination date for any reason other than for Cause, it is determined by the Company that Executive could have been terminated for Cause, then to the extent permitted by law: 

 

	 	(i)	 the Company may elect to cancel any and all payments of any benefits otherwise due Executive, but not yet paid, under this Agreement or otherwise;
and 

  

	 	(ii)	 upon written demand by the Company, Executive shall refund to the Company any amounts, plus interest, previously paid by Company to Executive
pursuant to Subsections 6(e)(iii), 6(e)(iv) or 6(e)(v), less one thousand dollars ($1,000) which Executive shall be entitled to retain as fully sufficient consideration to support and maintain in effect any contractual obligations that Executive has
to the Company prior to the refund, including the Release as defined herein. 

 7.

employment for Good Reason during a Change in Control Period, or (y) the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause (and for reason other than Death of Total Disability) during a Change in Control Period, the Company shall,

 9 

	 	(iv)	 For purposes of this Section 7, “Person” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act, as modified
and used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof, except that such term shall not include (1) the Company, (2) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company, (3) an employee benefit plan of
the Company, (4) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities or (5) a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their

(ii) authorization to communicate with customers and prospective customers, and other business relationship providers, to help Executive develop goodwill for Company; and/or (iii) authorization to participate in specialized training
related to Company’s business. Executive agrees that each of Executive’s covenants in Section 10 of this Agreement (the “Protective Covenants”) is reasonable and necessary to protect a legitimate business interest of the
Company, and that no one restriction or obligation (such as the confidentiality obligations) would be sufficient to protect the Company’s interests standing alone due to the variety of different interests involved, the difficulty of identifying
and addressing a breach before irreparable harm has occurred, and 

  
 10 

 
the need to prevent irreparable harm. Employee understands and agrees that one purpose of this Agreement is to enhance, maintain, and not diminish, all common law and contract protections that
have been in effect for the parties concerning Confidential Information that Employee has received in the past. In addition, Executive agrees that any and all rights Executive may have to incentive compensation, stock or stock-related compensation,
and/or severance compensation, whether provided for in this Agreement or elsewhere, are provided in reliance upon Executive’s agreement to abide by and not challenge the validity of the Protective Covenants described below. 

(a) Company Property, Computer Systems, and Inventions. All written materials, records, data, and other documents
prepared or possessed by Executive during Executive’s employment with the Company are the Company’s property. Executive understands that access to the Company’s computer systems is authorized for activities that are consistent with
the business purposes of the Company, that benefit the Company (consistent with Company policies and/or guidelines as they may be modified from time to time), and that do not knowingly cause harm to the Company. The use of the Company computer
systems to pursue a competing enterprise, or prepare to compete with the Company, is unauthorized and strictly prohibited. All information, ideas, concepts, improvements, discoveries, and inventions that are conceived, made, developed, or acquired
by Executive individually or in conjunction with others during Executive’s employment (whether during business hours or not and whether on the Company’s premises or not) which relate to or are derived from the Company’s business,
products, property, resources or services are the Company’s sole and exclusive property. Executive does hereby grant and assign to the Company (or its nominee) Executive’s entire right, title and interest in and to all inventions, original
works of authorship, developments, concepts, improvements, designs, discoveries, and ideas of commercial use or value that either: (i) relate to the Company’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development activity
of the Company; or (ii) are derived from, suggested by, or result of work performed for the Company, or were created, discovered, or conceived with the aid of Company property (“Company IP”). While employed, and as necessary
thereafter, Executive will assist Company to obtain patents or copyrights on Company IP, and will upon request execute all documents and otherwise cooperate in the Company’s efforts to obtain the copyrights, patents, licenses, and other rights
and interests that would be necessary to secure for the Company the complete benefit of Company IP. To the extent state law where Executive resides requires it (such as under Cal. Lab. Code, § 2870, or comparable laws), Executive is notified
that no provision in this Agreement requires Executive to assign any of rights to an invention for which no equipment, supplies, facility, or trade secret information of the Company was used and which was developed entirely on Executive’s
own time, unless (i) the invention relates at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention, (A) to the business of the Company, or (B) to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or
development, or (ii) the invention results from any work performed by Executive for the Company. This paragraph is intended to compliment and supplement, not replace, any additional written agreement(s) the parties may have regarding
Company IP. All memoranda, notes, records, files, correspondence, drawings, manuals, models, specifications, computer programs, maps, and all other documents, data, or materials of any type embodying such information, ideas, concepts, improvements,
discoveries, and inventions are the Company’s property. At the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive shall return all of the Company’s documents, data, or other Company property to the
Company and shall not retain any copies of such property, in any form (tangible or intangible), without the express written consent of the Company. 

  
 11 

 (b) Confidential Information; Non-Disclosure. Executive
acknowledges that the business of the Company is highly competitive and that Executive’s position is one where the Company will provide Executive with access to “Confidential Information” relating to the business of the Company and
its affiliates. Executive further acknowledges that protection of such Confidential Information against unauthorized disclosure and use is of critical importance to the Company and its affiliates in maintaining their competitive advantage. Executive
understands that it shall be his responsibility to handle and use “Confidential Information” in a manner that does not violate Company policies or knowingly cause harm to the Company. Accordingly, during employment and for so long
thereafter as the information remains qualified as “Confidential Information,” Executive agrees to maintain the confidentiality of “Confidential Information” and not to engage in any unauthorized use or disclosure of such
information. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” refers to an item of
information, or a compilation of information, in any form (tangible or intangible), related to the Company’s business that (i) the Company has not intentionally made public or authorized public disclosure of, and (ii) is not generally
known to the public or to other persons who might obtain value or competitive advantage from its disclosure or use, through proper means. Confidential Information will not lose its protected status under this Agreement if it becomes known to the
public or to other persons through improper means such as the unauthorized use or disclosure of the information by Executive or another person. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to: (i) Market Business Strategy (MBS) data,
the Company Transformation Change processes, MBS Plans, Business Improvement Process (BIP), Fleet Planning, Public Sector Pro-formas, Letters of Intent, Route Manager and District Manager Training Programs, internal information regarding acquisition
targets, divestiture targets, and mergers, Real Estate Market Area Analysis Mapping and Real Estate Owned and Leased Property Data and Reporting; (ii) Company’s business plans and analysis, customer and prospect lists; compilations of
names and other individualized information concerning customers, investors, and business affiliates (such as contact name, service provided, pricing for that customer, type and amount of services used, credit and financial data, and/or other
information relating to the Company’s relationship with that customer); pricing strategies and price curves; marketing plans and strategies, research and development data, buying practices, human resource information and personnel files
(including salaries of management level personnel), financial data, operational data, methods, techniques, technical data, know-how, innovations, computer programs, un-patented inventions, and trade secrets; and (iii) information about the
business affairs of third parties (including, but not limited to, clients and acquisition targets) that such third parties provide to Company in confidence. 
 Confidential Information will include trade secrets, but an item of Confidential Information need not qualify as a trade secret to be protected by this Agreement. Company’s confidential exchange of
information with a third party for business purposes will not remove it from protection under this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that items of Confidential Information are Company’s valuable assets and have economic value, actual or
potential, because they are not generally known by the public or others who could use them to their own economic benefit and/or to the competitive disadvantage of the Company, and thus, should be treated as Company’s trade secrets. 

  
 12 

 (c) Unfair Competition Restrictions. Ancillary to the rights provided
to Executive following employment termination, the Company’s provision of Confidential Information, specialized training, and/or goodwill support to Executive, and Executive’s agreements regarding the use of same, and in order to protect
the value of any restricted stock, stock options, or other stock-related compensation, training, goodwill support and/or the Confidential Information described above, the Company and Executive agree to the following provisions against unfair
competition. Executive agrees that for a period of two (2) years following the termination of employment for any reason (“Restricted Term”), Executive will not, directly or indirectly, for Executive or for others, anywhere in the
United States (including all parishes in Louisiana, and Puerto Rico), Canada, the United Kingdom, or the People’s Republic of China (the “Restricted Area”) do the following, unless expressly authorized to do so in writing by the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company: 
  

	
	 Engage in, or assist any person, entity, or business engaged in, the selling or providing of products or services that would displace the products or services
that (i) the Company is currently in the business of providing and was in the business of providing, or was planning to be in the business of providing, at the time Executive was employed with the Company, and (ii) that Executive had
involvement in or received Confidential Information about in the course of employment; the foregoing is expressly understood to include, without limitation, the business of the collection, transfer, recycling and resource recovery, or disposal of
solid waste, hazardous or other waste, including the operation of waste-to-energy facilities.

 During the Restricted Term, Executive cannot engage in any of the enumerated prohibited activities in the
Restricted Area by means of telephone, telecommunications, satellite communications, correspondence, or other contact from outside the Restricted Area. Executive further understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit his ability to engage in
certain businesses during the Restricted Term, but acknowledges that these restrictions are necessary to protect the Confidential Information the Company has provided to Executive. 

A failure to comply with the foregoing restrictions will create a presumption that Executive is engaging in unfair
competition. Executive agrees that this Section defining unfair competition with the Company does not prevent Executive from using and offering the skills that Executive possessed prior to receiving access to Confidential Information, confidential
training, and knowledge from the Company. This Agreement creates an advance approval process, and nothing herein is intended, or will be construed as, a general restriction against the pursuit of lawful employment in violation of any controlling
state or federal laws. Executive shall be permitted to engage in activities that would otherwise be prohibited by this covenant if such activities are determined in the sole discretion of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company in writing to be
of no material threat to the legitimate business interests of the Company. 

  
 13 

 (d) Non-Solicitation of Customers. For the Restricted Term,
Executive will not, in person or through the direction or control of others, call on, service, or solicit competing business from a Covered Customer, or induce or encourage any such Covered Customer or other source of ongoing business to stop doing
business with Company. A “Covered Customer” is any Company customer (person or entity) for which Executive had business-related contact or dealings with, or received Confidential Information about, in the two (2) year period preceding
the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason. 
 (e) Non-Solicitation of
Employees. During Executive’s employment, and for the Restricted Term, Executive will not, in person or through the direction or control of others, call on, solicit, encourage, or induce any other employee or officer of the Company or its
affiliates whom Executive had contact with, knowledge of, or association within the course of employment with the Company to terminate his or her employment, and will not assist any other person or entity in such a solicitation. 

(f) Non-Disparagement. During Executive’s employment, and for the Restricted Term, Executive covenants and
agrees that Executive shall not engage in any pattern of conduct that involves the making or publishing of written or oral statements or remarks (including, without limitation, the repetition or distribution of derogatory rumors, allegations,
negative reports or comments) which are disparaging, deleterious or damaging to the integrity, reputation or good will of the Company, its management, or of management of corporations affiliated with the Company. 

(g) Protected Communications. Nothing in this Agreement (particularly nothing in Paragraphs 10(b) and
(f) regarding non-disclosure and non-disparagement) is intended or to be construed to prohibit or interfere with any and all rights Executive may have to report a violation of state or federal law to appropriate federal or state law enforcement
officials, or to cooperate with a duly authorized government investigation. In addition, nothing herein prohibits Executive from engaging in a disclosure of information that is required by law (such as by court order or subpoena). Provided, however,
that if Executive believes that the disclosure of Confidential Information is required by a subpoena, court order, or similar legal mandate, then Executive will provide the Company reasonable notice and opportunity to protect any legitimate business
interests it may have in maintaining Confidential Information as confidential (through protective order or other means) before engaging in such a disclosure. 
 11. Enforcement of Protective Covenants. 
 (a)
Termination of Employment and Forfeiture of Compensation. Executive agrees that any breach by Executive of any of the Protective Covenants set forth in Section 10 during Executive’s employment with the Company shall be grounds for
immediate employment termination of Executive for Cause pursuant to Section 5(c)(i), which shall be in addition to and not exclusive of any and all other rights and remedies the Company may have against Executive. 

In the event that Executive violates one of the Protective Covenants, (i) the Company shall have the right to
immediately cease making any payments that it may otherwise owe to 

  
 14 

 
Executive, if any, (ii) Executive will forfeit any remaining rights to payments or continuing benefits provided by this Agreement, if there are any, and (iii) upon the Company’s
demand, Executive will refund to the Company any amounts, plus interest, previously paid by Company to Executive pursuant to Subsections 6(e)(iii), 6(e)(iv), 6(e)(v), 7(a)(i) or 7(a)(ii), less one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) which Executive shall
be entitled to retain as fully sufficient consideration to support and maintain in effect any contractual obligations that Executive has to the Company prior to the refund, including the Release as defined herein. 

(b) Right to Injunction. Executive acknowledges that a breach of a Protective Covenant set forth in Section 10
hereof will cause irreparable damage to the Company with respect to which the Company’s remedy at law for damages will be inadequate. Therefore, in the event of any breach or anticipatory breach of a Protective Covenant by Executive, Executive
and the Company agree that the Company shall be entitled to seek the following particular forms of relief, in addition to remedies otherwise available to it at law or equity: (i) injunctions, both preliminary and permanent, enjoining or
restraining such breach or anticipatory breach and Executive hereby consents to the issuance thereof forthwith and without bond by any court of competent jurisdiction; and (ii) recovery of all reasonable sums expended and costs, including
reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by the Company to pursue the remedies provided for in this Section of the Agreement to enforce the Protective Covenants. 

(c) Reformation of Covenants. The Protective Covenants set forth in Section 10 constitute a series of separate
but ancillary covenants, one for each applicable State in the United States and the District of Columbia, and one for each applicable foreign country. If in any judicial proceeding, a court shall hold that any of the Protective Covenants set forth
in Section 10 exceed the time, geographic, or occupational limitations permitted by applicable laws, Executive and the Company agree that such provisions shall and are hereby reformed to provide for a restriction with the maximum time,
geographic, or occupational limitations permitted by such laws to protect the Company’s business interests. Further, in the event a court shall hold unenforceable any of the separate covenants deemed included herein, then such unenforceable
covenant or covenants shall be deemed eliminated from the provisions of this Agreement for the purpose of such proceeding to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced in such proceeding. 

(d) Survival. Executive and the Company further agree that the protective Covenants set forth in Section 10
shall each be construed as a separate agreement independent of any other provisions of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Executive against the Company whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not
constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of any of the Protective Covenants. The Protective Covenants will survive the termination of Executive’s employment with Company, regardless of the cause of the termination. If Executive
violates one of the Protective Covenants for which there is a specific time limitation, the time period for that restriction will be extended by one day for each day Executive violates it, up to a maximum extension equal to the length of time
prescribed for the restriction, so as to give Company the full benefit of the bargained-for length of forbearance. If Executive becomes employed with an affiliate of the Company without signing a new agreement, the affiliate will step into
Company’s position under this Agreement, and will be entitled to the same protections and enforcement rights as the Company. 

  
 15 

 12. Indemnification. 

The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Executive to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law for any action or
inaction of Executive while serving as an officer and director of the Company or, at the Company’s request, as an officer or director of any other entity or as a fiduciary of any benefit plan. This provision includes the obligation and
undertaking of the Executive to reimburse the Company for any fees advanced by the Company on behalf of the Executive should it later be determined that Executive was not entitled to have such fees advanced by the Company under Delaware law. The
Company shall cover the Executive under directors and officers liability insurance both during and, while potential liability exists, after the Employment Period in the same amount and to the same extent as the Company covers its other officers and
directors. 
 13. Arbitration. 

The parties agree that any dispute relating to this Agreement, or to the breach of this Agreement, arising between
Executive and the Company shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), or any other mutually agreed upon arbitration
service; provided, however, that temporary and preliminary injunctive relief to enforce the covenants contained in Section 10 of this Agreement, and related expedited discovery, may be pursued in a court of law to provide temporary injunctive
relief pending a final determination of all issues of final relief through arbitration. The arbitration proceeding, including the rendering of an award, shall take place in Houston, Texas, and shall be administered by the AAA (or any other mutually
agreed upon arbitration service). The arbitrator shall be jointly selected by the Company and Executive within thirty (30) days of the notice of dispute, or if the parties cannot agree, in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the
AAA (or any other mutually agreed upon arbitration service). All fees and expenses associated with the arbitration shall be borne equally by Executive and the Company during the arbitration, pending final decision by the arbitrator as to who should
bear fees, unless otherwise ordered by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall not be authorized to create a cause of action or remedy not recognized by applicable state or federal law. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award final injunctive
relief. The award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties without appeal or review, except as permitted by the arbitration laws of the State of Texas. The award, inclusive of any and all injunctive relief provided for therein,
shall be enforceable through a court of law upon motion of either party. 
 14. Requirement of Timely
Payments. 
 If any amounts which are required, or determined to be paid or payable, or reimbursed or
reimbursable, to Executive under this Agreement (or any other plan, agreement, policy or arrangement with the Company) are not so paid promptly at the times provided herein or therein, such amounts shall accrue interest, compounded daily, at an 8%
annual percentage rate, from the date such amounts were required or determined to have been paid or payable, reimbursed or reimbursable to Executive, until such amounts and any interest accrued thereon are finally and fully paid, provided, however,
that in no event shall the amount of interest contracted for, charged or received hereunder, exceed the maximum non-usurious amount of interest allowed by applicable law. 

  
 16 

 15. Withholding of Taxes. 

The Company may withhold from any compensation and benefits payable under this Agreement all applicable federal, state,
local, or other taxes. 
 16. Source of Payments. 

All payments provided under this Agreement, other than payments made pursuant to a plan which provides otherwise, shall be
paid from the general funds of the Company, and no special or separate fund shall be established, and no other segregation of assets made, to assure payment. Executive shall have no right, title or interest whatever in or to any investments which
the Company may make to aid the Company in meeting its obligations hereunder. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured creditor of
the Company. 
 17. Assignment. 

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, and assigns. Except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Executive, and Executive’s heirs, representatives, and successors. This Agreement shall not be assignable by Executive (but any payments due hereunder which
would be payable at a time after Executive’s death shall be paid to Executive’s estate). 
 18.
Entire Agreement; Amendment. 
 This Agreement shall supersede any and all existing oral or written
agreements, representations, or warranties between Executive and the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated entities relating to the terms of Executive’s employment by the Company; provided, however, that if all or any material part
of the Protective Covenants provided for in this Agreement are deemed void or unenforceable, then any prior agreement between the parties covering the same or substantially similar restrictions on Executive (such as, but not limited to the
Company’s prior Employment Agreement(s) or Loyalty And Confidentiality Agreement with Executive) shall resume effect to the extent necessary to maintain protection of the Company’s legitimate protectable interests covered by the Protective
Covenants. This Agreement may not be amended except by a written agreement signed by both parties. No material term or obligation of a party may be waived except through written agreement by the party with the authority to enforce such right or
obligation. 
 19. Governing Law and Venue. 

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas applicable to
agreements made and to be performed in that State, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The parties agree that any legal action arising from this Agreement that is not required to be resolved through arbitration pursuant to
Section 13 must be pursued in a court of competent jurisdiction that is located in Houston, Texas. 

  
 17 

 20. Notices. 

Any notice, consent, request, or other communication made or given in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing
and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by facsimile or by hand delivery, to those listed below at their following respective addresses or at such other
address as each may specify by notice to the others:

		  	1001 Fannin, Suite 4000
		  	Houston, Texas 77002

    To Executive:
	  	At the address for Executive set forth below.

 21. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on any
occasion shall not be considered a waiver thereof or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. 

(b) Severability. Subject to Section 11 hereof, if any term or provision of this Agreement is declared illegal
or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction and cannot be modified to be enforceable, such term or provision shall immediately become null and void, leaving the remainder of this Agreement in full force and effect. 

(c) Headings. Section headings are used herein for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the
meaning of any provision of this Agreement. 
 (d) Rules of Construction. Whenever the context so
requires, the use of the singular shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa. 
 (e)
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts will together constitute but one Agreement. 

22. Potential Limitation on Severance Benefits. 

(a) Maximum Severance Amount. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a
qualifying termination (or resignation) under Section 6(e) or Section 7 of this Agreement it is determined by the Company that the Severance Benefits (as defined in Section 22(b) below) would exceed 2.99 times the sum of the
Executive’s then current base salary and target bonus (the “Maximum Severance Amount”), then the aggregate 

  
 18 

 
present value of the Severance Benefits provided to the Executive shall be reduced by the Company to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be an amount, expressed in present
value, that maximizes the aggregate present value of the Severance Benefits without exceeding the Maximum Severance Amount. 
 (b) Severance Benefits. For purposes of determining Severance Benefits under Section 22(a) above, Severance Benefits means the present value of payments or distributions by the Company, its
subsidiaries or affiliated entities to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or provided pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise), and 
 (A) including: (i) cash amounts payable by the Company in the event of termination of Executive’s employment; and (ii) the present value of benefits or perquisites provided for periods
after termination of employment (but excluding benefits or perquisites provided to employees generally); and 

(B) excluding: (i) payments of salary, bonus or performance award amounts that had accrued at the time of
termination; (ii) payments based on accrued qualified and non-qualified deferred compensation plans, including retirement and savings benefits; (iii) any benefits or perquisites provided under plans or programs applicable to employees
generally; (iv) amounts paid as part of any agreement intended to “make-whole” any forfeiture of benefits from a prior employer; (v) amounts paid for services following termination of employment for a reasonable consulting
agreement for a period not to exceed one year; (vi) amounts paid for post-termination covenants (such as a covenant not to compete); (vii) the value of accelerated vesting or payment of any outstanding equity-based award; and
(viii) any payment that the Board or any committee thereof determines in good faith to be a reasonable settlement of any claim made against the Company. 
 (c) Possible 280G Reduction. Following application of Section 22(a), in the event that the payment of the remaining Severance Benefits to Executive plus any other payments to Executive which
would be subject to Internal Revenue Code Section 280G (including any reduced Severance Benefits) (“280G Severance Benefits”) would be subject (in whole or part), to any excise tax imposed under Internal Revenue Code Section 4999
(the “Excise Tax”), then the cash portion of the 280G Severance Benefits shall first be further reduced, and the non-cash 280G Severance Benefits shall thereafter be further reduced, to the extent necessary so that no portion of the 280G
Severance Benefits is subject to the Excise Tax, but only if (i) the amount of the 280G Severance Benefits to be received by Executive, as so reduced by this Section 22(c) and after subtracting the amount of federal, state and local income
taxes on such reduced 280G Severance Benefits (after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced 280G Severance Benefits) is greater than or equal to (ii) the amount of the 280G
Severance Benefits to be received by Executive without such reduction by this Section 22(c) after subtracting the amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such 280G Severance Benefits and the amount of the Excise Tax to which
Executive would be subject in respect of such unreduced 280G Severance Benefits (after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced 280G Severance Benefits ). 

  
 19 

 (d) Calculation of 280G Severance Benefits. For purposes of
determining the 280G Severance Benefits, (i) no portion of the 280G Severance Benefits, the receipt or enjoyment of which Executive shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning
of Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b), shall be taken into account, (ii) no portion of the 280G Severance Benefits shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of tax counsel (“Tax Counsel”) who is reasonably acceptable
to Executive and selected by the accounting firm (the “Auditor”) which was, immediately prior to the Change in Control, the Company’s independent auditor, does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of
Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b)(2) (including by reason of Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b)(4)(A)); (iii) no portion of the 280G Severance Benefits shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of Tax Counsel,
constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b)(4)(B), in excess of the “base amount” (as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b)(3))
allocable to such reasonable compensation, and (iv) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the 280G Severance Benefits shall be determined by the Auditor in accordance with the principles of Internal
Revenue Code Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4). 
 (e) Determination of Present Value. For purposes of this
Section 22, the present value of Severance Benefits and 280G Severance Benefits 280G shall be determined in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(d)(4). 

23. Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. 

(a) Compliance. It is the intention of the Company and Executive that this Employment Agreement not result in
unfavorable tax consequences to Executive under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. This Section 23 does not create an obligation on the part of Company to modify the Employment Agreement in the future and does not guarantee that the
amounts or benefits owed under the Employment Agreement will not be subject to interest and penalties under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. 
 (b) Payment Timing. The payments of severance under Sections 6(e)(iii) and (iv) and Sections 7(a)(i) and (ii) above (“Separation Payments”) are designated as separate payments
for purposes of the short-term deferral rules under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4)(i)(F), and, with respect to such Separation Payments, the exemption for involuntary terminations under separation pay plans under Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii). As a result, (A) Separation Payments that are by their terms scheduled to be made on or before March 15th of the calendar year following the applicable year of termination, (B) any additional
Separation Payments that are made on or before December 31st of the second calendar year following the year of Executive’s termination and do not exceed the lesser of two times Base Salary or two times the limit under Internal Revenue Code
Section 401(a)(17) then in effect, and (C) any Separation Payments under Section 7(a) made on account of a 409A Change in Control within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A are exempt from the requirements of
Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. If Executive is designated as a “specified employee” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, then to the extent the Disability Payments and Separation Payments to be made
during the first six month period following Executive’s termination of employment exceed such exempt amounts, the payments shall be withheld and the amount of the payments withheld will be paid in a lump sum, with interest (at

  
 20 

 
the Company’s then applicable overnight rate), on the date that is six (6) months and one (1) day after Executive’s termination. Continued medical benefits under Sections
6(e)(v) and 7(a)(i) above are intended to satisfy the exemption for medical expense reimbursements under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v)(B). 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement is EXECUTED as of the date first set forth above and effective as set forth therein.

 21Employment Agreement

 EXHIBIT 10.5 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the
“Agreement”) is made and entered into on July 5, 2012 but effective as of May 10, 2012, by and between Waste Management, Inc. (the “Company”) and Mark E. Schwartz (the “Executive”). 

1. Employment. 
 The Company shall employ Executive, and Executive shall be employed by the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. 

Subject to Section 18 below, Executive acknowledges and represents that, any and all prior employment agreements,
including without limitation that certain Employment Agreement between he and Waste Management, Inc. dated November 15, 2000, and the Amendment thereto dated December 31, 2002, is terminated, and that any and all obligations of the Company
created thereunder, whether express or implied, are null and void and of no further force or effect, and that the only rights, obligations and duties between the Company and Executive are those expressly set forth in this Agreement. 

2. Term of Employment. 
 The period of Executive’s employment under this Agreement began on May 10, 2012 (“Employment Date”), and may be terminated by either party pursuant to Section 5 below. The period
during which Executive is employed hereunder shall be referred to as the “Employment Period.” 
 3.
Duties and Responsibilities. 
 (a) Executive shall serve as the Senior Vice President, Human
Resources. In such capacity, Executive shall perform such duties and have the power, authority, and functions consistent with such position, as may be deemed appropriate for the position and assigned to Executive from time to time by the Chief
Executive Officer, the Executive Vice-President of Growth, Innovation and Field Support or the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company. 
 (b) Executive shall devote substantially all of his working time, attention and energies to the business of the Company, and its affiliated entities. Executive may make and manage his personal
investments (provided such investments in other activities do not violate, in any material respect, the provisions of Section 10 of this Agreement), be involved in charitable and professional activities, and, with the prior written consent of
the Board, serve on boards of other for profit entities, provided such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of his duties hereunder or create a conflict of interest (however, the Board does not typically allow officers to
serve on more than one public company board at a time). 
 4. Compensation and Benefits. 

(a) Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the Company shall pay Executive a base salary at the annual rate of
Three Hundred Seventy Five Thousand and 00/100ths Dollars ($375,000.00) per year, or such higher rate as may be determined from time to time by the 

 
Company (“Base Salary”). Such Base Salary shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practice for its executive officers. Once increased, Base Salary shall not
be reduced except by mutual agreement. 
 (b) Annual Bonus. During the Employment Period, Executive will
be entitled to participate in an annual incentive compensation plan of the Company, as established by the Management Development and Compensation Committee (“Compensation Committee”) of the Board from time to time. Executive’s target
annual bonus under this Agreement will be seventy-five percent (75%) of his Base Salary in effect for such year (the “Target Bonus”), and his actual annual bonus may range from 0% to 150% of Base Salary (i.e., a maximum
possible bonus of two times the Target Bonus), and will be determined based upon (i) the achievement of certain corporate financial and/or performance goals, as may be established and approved from time to time by the Compensation Committee of
the Board, and (ii) the achievement of personal performance goals as may be established by Executive’s immediate supervisor. Executive’s annual bonus for calendar year 2012 will be prorated between the time he spent as Vice-President
and Assistant General Counsel and the time he spent as Senior Vice President, Human Resources, in each case calculated using the applicable financial and operational performance objectives, salary, and target bonus for each such position. The annual
bonus will be paid at such time and in such manner as set forth in the annual incentive compensation plan document. 
 (c) Benefit Plans and Vacation. Subject to the terms of such plans, Executive shall be eligible to participate in or receive benefits under any profit sharing plan, salary deferral plan, medical
and dental benefits plan, life insurance plan, short-term and long-term disability plans, or any other health, welfare or fringe benefit plan, generally made available by the Company to similarly-situated executive employees. The Company shall not
be obligated to institute, maintain, or refrain from changing, amending, or discontinuing any benefit plan, so long as such changes are similarly applicable to similarly-situated employees generally. 

During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to vacation each year in accordance with the Company’s
policies in effect from time to time, but in no event less than four (4) weeks paid vacation per calendar year. Vacation not taken in the calendar year in which it is granted cannot be carried forward to any subsequent year. 

(d) Expense Reimbursement. The Company shall promptly reimburse Executive for the ordinary and necessary business
expenses incurred by Executive in the performance of his duties hereunder in accordance with the Company’s customary practices applicable to executive officers. The reimbursement of expenses during a year will not affect the expenses eligible
for reimbursement in any other year. In no event shall any expense be reimbursed after the last day of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred. 

(e) Other Perquisites. Executive shall be entitled to all perquisites provided to Senior Vice Presidents of the
Company as approved by the Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board, and as such perquisites may exist from time to time. 
 5. Termination of Employment. 
 Executive’s employment
hereunder may be terminated during the Employment Period under the following circumstances: 

  
 2 

 (a) Death. Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon
Executive’s death. 
 (b) Total Disability. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment
hereunder upon Executive’s becoming “Totally Disabled.” For purposes of this Agreement, Executive shall be considered “Totally Disabled” if Executive has become physically or mentally disabled so as to render Executive
incapable of performing the essential functions of his position (with or without reasonable accommodations) and such disability is expected to result in death or to last for a continuous period of at least 12 months, provided that such condition
constitutes a “disability” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. Executive’s receipt of disability benefits under the Company’s long-term disability plan or receipt of Social Security disability
benefits shall be deemed conclusive evidence of Total Disability for purpose of this Agreement. 
 (c)
Termination by the Company for Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment hereunder for “Cause” at any time after providing a Notice of Termination for Cause to Executive. 

 

	 	(i)	 For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” means any of the following: Executive’s (A) willful or deliberate and continual
refusal to perform Executive’s employment duties reasonably requested by the Company after receipt of written notice to Executive of such failure to perform, specifying such failure (other than as a result of Executive’s sickness, illness
or injury) and Executive’s failure to cure such nonperformance within ten (10) days of receipt of said written notice; (B) breach of any statutory or common law duty of loyalty to the Company; (C) conviction of, or plea of
nolo contendre to, any felony; (D) willful or intentional cause of material injury to the Company, its property, or its assets; (E) disclosure or attempted disclosure to any unauthorized person(s) of the Company’s proprietary
or confidential information; (F) material violation or a repeated and willful violation of the Company’s policies or procedures, including but not limited to, the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (or any successor policy)
then in effect; or (G) breach of any of the covenants set forth in Section 10 hereof. 

  

	 	(ii)	 For purposes of this Agreement, the phrase “Notice of Termination for Cause” shall mean a written notice that shall indicate the specific
termination provision or provisions in Section 5(c)(i) relied upon, and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances which provide the basis for termination for Cause. 

(d) Voluntary Termination by Executive. Executive may terminate his employment hereunder with or without Good
Reason at any time upon written notice to the Company. 
  

	 	(i)	 A termination for “Good Reason” means a resignation of employment by Executive by written notice (“Notice of Termination for Good
Reason”) given to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of the Good Reason event, unless such circumstances are substantially corrected prior to the date of termination specified in the
Notice of Termination 

  
 3 

	 	 
for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence or failure to cause the occurrence, as the case may be, without Executive’s express written
consent, of any of the following circumstances: (A) the Company materially diminishes Executive’s core duties or responsibility for those core duties, so as to effectively cause Executive to no longer be performing the duties of his
position (except in each case in connection with the termination of Executive’s employment for Death, Total Disability, or Cause, or temporarily as a result of Executive’s illness or other absence); (B) in the event of the
Company’s becoming a fifty percent or more subsidiary of any other entity, the Company materially diminishes the duties, authority or responsibilities of the person to whom Executive is required to report; (C) removal or the non-reelection
of the Executive from the officer position with the Company specified herein, or removal of the Executive from any of his then officer positions; (D) any material breach by the Company of any provision of this Agreement; or (E) failure of
any successor to the Company (whether direct or indirect and whether by merger, acquisition, consolidation or otherwise) to assume in a writing delivered to Executive upon the assignee becoming such, the obligations of the Company hereunder,
resulting in a material negative change in the employment relationship. 

  

	 	(ii)	 A “Notice of Termination for Good Reason” shall mean a notice that shall indicate the specific termination provision or provisions relied
upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for Termination for Good Reason. The Notice of Termination for Good Reason shall provide for a date of termination not less than thirty
(30) nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such Notice of Termination for Good Reason is given, provided that in the case of the events set forth in Sections 5(d)(i)(A) or (B), the date may be twenty (20) days after the giving
of such notice. 

 (e) Termination by the Company without Cause. The Company may
terminate Executive’s employment hereunder without Cause at any time upon written notice to Executive. 

(f) Effect of Termination. Upon any termination of employment for any reason, Executive shall immediately resign
from all Board memberships and other positions with the Company or any of its subsidiaries held by him at such time. 
 6. Compensation Following Termination of Employment. 
 In
the event that Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated in a manner as set forth in Section 5 above, Executive shall be entitled to the compensation and benefits provided under this Section 6, in each case subject to potential
reduction as may be required by Section 22, as applicable to the form of termination:

	 	(ii)	 Any benefits accrued through the date of termination to which Executive may be entitled pursuant to the plans, policies and arrangements (including
those referred to in Section 4(c) hereof), as determined and paid in accordance with the terms of such plans, policies and arrangements. 

 (b) Termination by Reason of Total Disability. In the event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company by reason of Executive’s Total Disability (as determined in accordance
with Section 5(b)), the Company shall pay the following amounts to Executive: 
  

	 	(i)	 Any accrued but unpaid Base Salary for services rendered to the date of termination, any accrued but unpaid expenses required to be reimbursed under
this Agreement, any accrued but unused vacation to the date of termination, and any earned but unpaid bonuses for any prior calendar year. Executive shall also be eligible for a pro-rata bonus or incentive compensation payment for the calendar year
of his employment termination to the extent such awards are made to other senior executives of the Company and paid at the same time as other senior executives are paid. 

 

	 	(ii)	 Any benefits accrued through the date of termination to which Executive may be entitled pursuant to the plans, policies and arrangements (including
those referred to in Section 4(c) hereof) shall be determined and paid in accordance with the terms of such plans, policies and arrangements. 

(c) Termination for Cause. In the event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause,

(d) Voluntary Termination by Executive. In the event that Executive voluntarily terminates employment other than
for Good Reason, the Company shall pay the following amounts to Executive: 

  
 5 

	 	(i)	 Any accrued but unpaid Base Salary for services rendered to the date of termination, any accrued but unpaid expenses required to be reimbursed under
this Agreement, any accrued but unused vacation to the date of termination, and any earned but unpaid bonuses for any prior calendar year. 

  

	 	(ii)	 Any benefits accrued through the date of termination to which Executive may be entitled pursuant to the plans, policies and arrangements (including
those referred to in Section 4(c) hereof up to the date of termination) shall be determined and paid in accordance with the terms of such plans, policies and arrangements. 

(e) Termination by the Company Without Cause Outside a Change in Control Period; Termination by Executive for Good
Reason Outside a Change in Control Period. In the event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company outside a Change in Control Period (as defined in Section 7 below) for reasons other than death, Total Disability or
Cause, or Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason outside of a Change in Control Period, the Company shall pay the following amounts to Executive: 
  

	 	(i)	 Any accrued but unpaid Base Salary for services rendered to the date of termination, any accrued but unpaid expenses required to be reimbursed under
this Agreement, any accrued but unused vacation to the date of termination, and any earned but unpaid bonuses for any prior calendar year. 

  

	 	(ii)	 Any benefits accrued through the date of termination to which Executive may be entitled pursuant to the plans, policies and arrangements referred to
in Section 4(c) hereof shall be determined and paid in accordance with the terms of such plans, policies and arrangements. 

  

	 	(iii)	 Subject to Executive’s execution of the Release (as defined in Section 7), Executive shall be eligible for a bonus or incentive
compensation payment, at the same time, on the same basis, and to the same extent payments are made to senior executives of the Company, pro-rated for the fiscal year in which the Executive’s employment is terminated.

  

	 	(iv)	 Subject to Executive’s execution of the Release (as defined in Section 7), an amount equal to two (2) times the sum of
Executive’s Base Salary plus his Target Annual Bonus (in each case, as then in effect), of which one-half of such amount shall be paid in a lump sum within the calendar quarter in which the 60th day following Executive’s employment termination date falls and
one-half of such amount shall be paid during the two (2) year period beginning in the calendar quarter within which the 60th day following Executive’s employment termination date falls and continuing at the same time and in the same
manner as Base Salary would have been paid if Executive had remained in active employment until the end of such period. 

  

	 	(v)	 Subject to Executive’s execution of the Release (as defined in Section 7) and Executive’s completion of required enrollment
elections, the Company will continue for Executive and Executive’s spouse and eligible dependents coverage under the Company’s health benefit plan and disability benefit plans, in which Executive was a participant at any time during the
twelve-month period prior to 

  
 6 

	 	 
the date of termination, until the earliest to occur of (A) twenty-four (24) months after the employment termination date; (B) Executive’s death (provided that benefits
provided to Executive’s spouse and dependents shall not terminate until twenty-four (24) months after the employment termination date); or (C) with respect to any particular plan, the date Executive becomes eligible to participate in
a comparable benefit provided by a subsequent employer. In the event that Executive’s continued participation in any such Company plan is prohibited, the Company will arrange to provide Executive with benefits substantially similar to those
which Executive would have been entitled to receive under this paragraph on a basis which provides Executive with no additional after-tax cost. 

(f) Suspension and Refund of Termination Benefits for Subsequently Discovered Cause. Notwithstanding any provision
of this Agreement to the contrary, if within one (1) year of Executive’s employment termination date for any reason other than for Cause, it is determined by the Company that Executive could have been terminated for Cause, then to the
extent permitted by law: 
  

	 	(i)	 the Company may elect to cancel any and all payments of any benefits otherwise due Executive, but not yet paid, under this Agreement or otherwise;
and 

  

	 	(ii)	 upon written demand by the Company, Executive shall refund to the Company any amounts, plus interest, previously paid by Company to Executive
pursuant to Subsections 6(e)(iii), 6(e)(iv) or 6(e)(v), less one thousand dollars ($1,000) which Executive shall be entitled to retain as fully sufficient consideration to support and maintain in effect any contractual obligations that Executive has
to the Company prior to the refund, including the Release as defined herein. 

 7.
Resignation by Executive for Good Reason or Termination by Company Without Cause During a Change in Control Period. 
 (a) Certain Terminations During a Change in Control Period. Subject to reduction required by Section 22, in the event a Change in Control occurs and (x) Executive terminates his
employment for Good Reason during a Change in Control Period, or (y) the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause (and for reason other than Death of Total Disability) during a Change in Control Period, the Company shall,
subject to Executive’s execution of the Release (as defined in this Section 7), pay the following amounts to Executive: 
  

	 	(i)	 The payments and benefits provided for in Section 6(e)(iv) and (v) in the same form as provided for therein. 

 

	 	(ii)	 Executive shall also receive a bonus or incentive compensation payment for the calendar year of the employment termination, payable at 100% of the
maximum bonus available to Executive, pro-rated as of the employment termination date. Such bonus payment shall be payable within five (5) days after the later of the effective date of Executive’s termination or the Change in Control.

 (b) Certain Definitions. 

 

	 	(i)	 For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” means the first to occur on or after the date on which this Agreement is first signed,

percent (30%) or more of the total voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities; 

  

	 	(C)	 the following individuals cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the number of directors then serving during any 12-month period:
individuals who, at the beginning of the 12-month period, constitute the Board and any new director (other than a director whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest, including but not limited
to a consent solicitation, relating or the election of directors of the Company) whose appointment or election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved or recommended by a vote of at least a majority of
the directors before the date of such appointment or election or whose appointment, election or nomination for election was previously so approved or recommended; 

 

	 	(D)	 a Person or Persons acting as a group acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such
Person or Persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than forty percent (40%) of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately before such acquisition or
acquisitions, other than a sale or disposition by the Company of such assets to an entity, at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are owned by the Company or by the stockholders of the
Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Company immediately prior to such sale. 

  

	 	(ii)	 For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control Period” means the period commencing on the date occurring six months immediately prior

	 	(iii)	 For purposes of this Agreement, “Exchange Act” means the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time.

  
 8 

	 	(iv)	 For purposes of this Section 7, “Person” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act, as modified
and used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof, except that such term shall not include (1) the Company, (2) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company, (3) an employee benefit plan of
the Company, (4) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities or (5) a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership of shares of Common Stock of the Company. 

  

	 	(v)	 For purposes of this Agreement, “Release” means that specific document which the Company shall present to Executive for consideration and
execution after any applicable termination of employment, wherein if he agrees to such, he will irrevocably and unconditionally release and forever discharge the Company, it subsidiaries, affiliates and related parties from any and all causes of
action which Executive at that time had or may have had against the Company (excluding any claim for indemnity under this Agreement, any claim under state workers’ compensation or unemployment laws, or any claim under the Consolidated Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”)). 

 8. No Other Benefits or
Compensation. Except as may be provided under this Agreement, or under the terms of any incentive compensation, employee benefit, or fringe benefit plan applicable to Executive at the time of Executive’s employment termination or
resignation, Executive shall have no right to receive any other compensation, or to participate in any other plan, arrangement or benefit, with respect to future periods after such employment termination or resignation. 

9. No Mitigation. In the event of any termination of employment hereunder, Executive shall be under no obligation
to seek other employment, and there shall be no offset against any amounts due Executive under this Agreement on account of any remuneration attributable to any subsequent employment that Executive may obtain. 

10. Protective Covenants. In reliance upon Executive’s promise to abide by the various protective covenants
and restrictions provided for below, the Company will continue to provide Executive with one or more of the following: (i) portions of the Company’s Confidential Information (through a computer password or other means) and updates thereto;
(ii) authorization to communicate with customers and prospective customers, and other business relationship providers, to help Executive develop goodwill for Company; and/or (iii) authorization to participate in specialized training
related to Company’s business. Executive agrees that each of Executive’s covenants in Section 10 of this Agreement (the “Protective Covenants”) is reasonable and necessary to protect a legitimate business interest of the
Company, and that no one restriction or obligation (such as the confidentiality obligations) would be sufficient to protect the Company’s interests standing alone due to the variety of different interests involved, the difficulty of identifying
and addressing a breach before irreparable harm has occurred, and the need to prevent irreparable harm. Employee understands and agrees that one purpose of this Agreement is to enhance, maintain, and not diminish, all common law and contract
protections that have been in effect for the parties concerning Confidential Information that Employee has 

  
 9 

 
received in the past. In addition, Executive agrees that any and all rights Executive may have to incentive compensation, stock or stock-related compensation, and/or severance compensation,
whether provided for in this Agreement or elsewhere, are provided in reliance upon Executive’s agreement to abide by and not challenge the validity of the Protective Covenants described below. 

(a) Company Property, Computer Systems, and Inventions. All written materials, records, data, and other documents
prepared or possessed by Executive during Executive’s employment with the Company are the Company’s property. Executive understands that access to the Company’s computer systems is authorized for activities that are consistent with
the business purposes of the Company, that benefit the Company (consistent with Company policies and/or guidelines as they may be modified from time to time), and that do not knowingly cause harm to the Company. The use of the Company computer
systems to pursue a competing enterprise, or prepare to compete with the Company, is unauthorized and strictly prohibited. All information, ideas, concepts, improvements, discoveries, and inventions that are conceived, made, developed, or acquired
by Executive individually or in conjunction with others during Executive’s employment (whether during business hours or not and whether on the Company’s premises or not) which relate to or are derived from the Company’s business,
products, property, resources or services are the Company’s sole and exclusive property. Executive does hereby grant and assign to the Company (or its nominee) Executive’s entire right, title and interest in and to all inventions, original
works of authorship, developments, concepts, improvements, designs, discoveries, and ideas of commercial use or value that either: (i) relate to the Company’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development activity
of the Company; or (ii) are derived from, suggested by, or result of work performed for the Company, or were created, discovered, or conceived with the aid of Company property (“Company IP”). While employed, and as necessary
thereafter, Executive will assist Company to obtain patents or copyrights on Company IP, and will upon request execute all documents and otherwise cooperate in the Company’s efforts to obtain the copyrights, patents, licenses, and other rights
and interests that would be necessary to secure for the Company the complete benefit of Company IP. To the extent state law where Executive resides requires it (such as under Cal. Lab. Code, § 2870, or comparable laws), Executive is notified
that no provision in this Agreement requires Executive to assign any of rights to an invention for which no equipment, supplies, facility, or trade secret information of the Company was used and which was developed entirely on Executive’s
own time, unless (i) the invention relates at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention, (A) to the business of the Company, or (B) to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or
development, or (ii) the invention results from any work performed by Executive for the Company. This paragraph is intended to compliment and supplement, not replace, any additional written agreement(s) the parties may have regarding
Company IP. All memoranda, notes, records, files, correspondence, drawings, manuals, models, specifications, computer programs, maps, and all other documents, data, or materials of any type embodying such information, ideas, concepts, improvements,
discoveries, and inventions are the Company’s property. At the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive shall return all of the Company’s documents, data, or other Company property to the
Company and shall not retain any copies of such property, in any form (tangible or intangible), without the express written consent of the Company. 
 (b) Confidential Information; Non-Disclosure. Executive acknowledges that the business of the Company is highly competitive and that Executive’s position is one where the

  
 10 

 
Company will provide Executive with access to “Confidential Information” relating to the business of the Company and its affiliates. Executive further acknowledges that protection of
such Confidential Information against unauthorized disclosure and use is of critical importance to the Company and its affiliates in maintaining their competitive advantage. Executive understands that it shall be his responsibility to handle and use
“Confidential Information” in a manner that does not violate Company policies or knowingly cause harm to the Company. Accordingly, during employment and for so long thereafter as the information remains qualified as “Confidential
Information,” Executive agrees to maintain the confidentiality of “Confidential Information” and not to engage in any unauthorized use or disclosure of such information. 

For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” refers to an item of information, or a compilation of
information, in any form (tangible or intangible), related to the Company’s business that (i) the Company has not intentionally made public or authorized public disclosure of, and (ii) is not generally known to the public or to other
persons who might obtain value or competitive advantage from its disclosure or use, through proper means. Confidential Information will not lose its protected status under this Agreement if it becomes known to the public or to other persons through
improper means such as the unauthorized use or disclosure of the information by Executive or another person. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to: (i) Market Business Strategy (MBS) data, the Company Transformation Change
processes, MBS Plans, Business Improvement Process (BIP), Fleet Planning, Public Sector Pro-formas, Letters of Intent, Route Manager and District Manager Training Programs, internal information regarding acquisition targets, divestiture targets, and
mergers, Real Estate Market Area Analysis Mapping and Real Estate Owned and Leased Property Data and Reporting; (ii) Company’s business plans and analysis, customer and prospect lists; compilations of names and other individualized
information concerning customers, investors, and business affiliates (such as contact name, service provided, pricing for that customer, type and amount of services used, credit and financial data, and/or other information relating to the
Company’s relationship with that customer); pricing strategies and price curves; marketing plans and strategies, research and development data, buying practices, human resource information and personnel files (including salaries of management
level personnel), financial data, operational data, methods, techniques, technical data, know-how, innovations, computer programs, un-patented inventions, and trade secrets; and (iii) information about the business affairs of third parties
(including, but not limited to, clients and acquisition targets) that such third parties provide to Company in confidence. 
 Confidential Information will include trade secrets, but an item of Confidential Information need not qualify as a trade secret to be protected by this Agreement. Company’s confidential exchange of
information with a third party for business purposes will not remove it from protection under this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that items of Confidential Information are Company’s valuable assets and have economic value, actual or
potential, because they are not generally known by the public or others who could use them to their own economic benefit and/or to the competitive disadvantage of the Company, and thus, should be treated as Company’s trade secrets. 

(c) Unfair Competition Restrictions. Ancillary to the rights provided to Executive following employment
termination, the Company’s provision of Confidential Information, specialized training, and/or goodwill support to Executive, and Executive’s agreements regarding the use of same, and in order to protect the value of any restricted stock,
stock options, or other stock-related compensation, training, goodwill support and/or the Confidential Information 

  
 11 

 
described above, the Company and Executive agree to the following provisions against unfair competition. Executive agrees that for a period of two (2) years following the termination of
employment for any reason (“Restricted Term”), Executive will not, directly or indirectly, for Executive or for others, anywhere in the United States (including all parishes in Louisiana, and Puerto Rico), Canada, the United Kingdom, or
the People’s Republic of China (the “Restricted Area”) do the following, unless expressly authorized to do so in writing by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company: 

Engage in, or assist any person, entity, or business engaged in, the selling or providing of products or
services that would displace the products or services that (i) the Company is currently in the business of providing and was in the business of providing, or was planning to be in the business of providing, at the time Executive was employed
with the Company, and (ii) that Executive had involvement in or received Confidential Information about in the course of employment; the foregoing is expressly understood to include, without limitation, the business of the collection, transfer,
recycling and resource recovery, or disposal of solid waste, hazardous or other waste, including the operation of waste-to-energy facilities. 
 During the Restricted Term, Executive cannot engage in any of the enumerated prohibited activities in the Restricted Area by means of telephone, telecommunications, satellite communications,
correspondence, or other contact from outside the Restricted Area. Executive further understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit his ability to engage in certain businesses during the Restricted Term, but acknowledges that these
restrictions are necessary to protect the Confidential Information the Company has provided to Executive. 
 A
failure to comply with the foregoing restrictions will create a presumption that Executive is engaging in unfair competition. Executive agrees that this Section defining unfair competition with the Company does not prevent Executive from using and
offering the skills that Executive possessed prior to receiving access to Confidential Information, confidential training, and knowledge from the Company. This Agreement creates an advance approval process, and nothing herein is intended, or will be
construed as, a general restriction against the pursuit of lawful employment in violation of any controlling state or federal laws. Executive shall be permitted to engage in activities that would otherwise be prohibited by this covenant if such
activities are determined in the sole discretion of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company in writing to be of no material threat to the legitimate business interests of the Company. 

(d) Non-Solicitation of Customers. For the Restricted Term, Executive will not, in person or through the
direction or control of others, call on, service, or solicit competing business from a Covered Customer, or induce or encourage any such Covered Customer or other source of ongoing business to stop doing business with Company. A “Covered
Customer” is any Company customer (person or entity) for which Executive had business-related contact or dealings with, or received Confidential Information about, in the two (2) year period preceding the termination of Executive’s
employment with the Company for any reason. 

  
 12 

 (e) Non-Solicitation of Employees. During Executive’s
employment, and for the Restricted Term, Executive will not, in person or through the direction or control of others, call on, solicit, encourage, or induce any other employee or officer of the Company or its affiliates whom Executive had contact
with, knowledge of, or association within the course of employment with the Company to terminate his or her employment, and will not assist any other person or entity in such a solicitation. 

(f) Non-Disparagement. During Executive’s employment, and for the Restricted Term, Executive covenants and
agrees that Executive shall not engage in any pattern of conduct that involves the making or publishing of written or oral statements or remarks (including, without limitation, the repetition or distribution of derogatory rumors, allegations,
negative reports or comments) which are disparaging, deleterious or damaging to the integrity, reputation or good will of the Company, its management, or of management of corporations affiliated with the Company. 

(g) Protected Communications. Nothing in this Agreement (particularly nothing in Paragraphs 10(b) and
(f) regarding non-disclosure and non-disparagement) is intended or to be construed to prohibit or interfere with any and all rights Executive may have to report a violation of state or federal law to appropriate federal or state law enforcement
officials, or to cooperate with a duly authorized government investigation. In addition, nothing herein prohibits Executive from engaging in a disclosure of information that is required by law (such as by court order or subpoena). Provided, however,
that if Executive believes that the disclosure of Confidential Information is required by a subpoena, court order, or similar legal mandate, then Executive will provide the Company reasonable notice and opportunity to protect any legitimate business
interests it may have in maintaining Confidential Information as confidential (through protective order or other means) before engaging in such a disclosure. 
 11. Enforcement of Protective Covenants. 
 (a)
Termination of Employment and Forfeiture of Compensation. Executive agrees that any breach by Executive of any of the Protective Covenants set forth in Section 10 during Executive’s employment with the Company shall be grounds for
immediate employment termination of Executive for Cause pursuant to Section 5(c)(i), which shall be in addition to and not exclusive of any and all other rights and remedies the Company may have against Executive. 

In the event that Executive violates one of the Protective Covenants, (i) the Company shall have the right to
immediately cease making any payments that it may otherwise owe to Executive, if any, (ii) Executive will forfeit any remaining rights to payments or continuing benefits provided by this Agreement, if there are any, and (iii) upon the
Company’s demand, Executive will refund to the Company any amounts, plus interest, previously paid by Company to Executive pursuant to Subsections 6(e)(iii), 6(e)(iv), 6(e)(v), 7(a)(i) or 7(a)(ii), less one thousand dollars ($1,000) which
Executive shall be entitled to retain as fully sufficient consideration to support and maintain in effect any contractual obligations that Executive has to the Company prior to the refund, including the Release as defined herein. 

(b) Right to Injunction. Executive acknowledges that a breach of a Protective Covenant set forth in Section 10
hereof will cause irreparable damage to the Company with respect to which the Company’s remedy at law for damages will be inadequate. Therefore, in the 

  
 13 

 
event of any breach or anticipatory breach of a Protective Covenant by Executive, Executive and the Company agree that the Company shall be entitled to seek the following particular forms of
relief, in addition to remedies otherwise available to it at law or equity: (i) injunctions, both preliminary and permanent, enjoining or restraining such breach or anticipatory breach and Executive hereby consents to the issuance thereof
forthwith and without bond by any court of competent jurisdiction; and (ii) recovery of all reasonable sums expended and costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by the Company to pursue the remedies provided for in this
Section of the Agreement to enforce the Protective Covenants. 
 (c) Reformation of Covenants. The
Protective Covenants set forth in Section 10 constitute a series of separate but ancillary covenants, one for each applicable State in the United States and the District of Columbia, and one for each applicable foreign country. If in any
judicial proceeding, a court shall hold that any of the Protective Covenants set forth in Section 10 exceed the time, geographic, or occupational limitations permitted by applicable laws, Executive and the Company agree that such provisions
shall and are hereby reformed to provide for a restriction with the maximum time, geographic, or occupational limitations permitted by such laws to protect the Company’s business interests. Further, in the event a court shall hold unenforceable
any of the separate covenants deemed included herein, then such unenforceable covenant or covenants shall be deemed eliminated from the provisions of this Agreement for the purpose of such proceeding to the extent necessary to permit the remaining
separate covenants to be enforced in such proceeding. 
 (d) Survival. Executive and the Company further
agree that the protective Covenants set forth in Section 10 shall each be construed as a separate agreement independent of any other provisions of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Executive against the
Company whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of any of the Protective Covenants. The Protective Covenants will survive the termination of Executive’s employment with
Company, regardless of the cause of the termination. If Executive violates one of the Protective Covenants for which there is a specific time limitation, the time period for that restriction will be extended by one day for each day Executive
violates it, up to a maximum extension equal to the length of time prescribed for the restriction, so as to give Company the full benefit of the bargained-for length of forbearance. If Executive becomes employed with an affiliate of the Company
without signing a new agreement, the affiliate will step into Company’s position under this Agreement, and will be entitled to the same protections and enforcement rights as the Company. 

12. Indemnification. 
 The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Executive to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law for any action or inaction of Executive while serving as an officer and director of the Company or,
at the Company’s request, as an officer or director of any other entity or as a fiduciary of any benefit plan. This provision includes the obligation and undertaking of the Executive to reimburse the Company for any fees advanced by the Company
on behalf of the Executive should it later be determined that Executive was not entitled to have such fees advanced by the Company under Delaware law. The Company shall cover the Executive under directors and officers liability insurance both during
and, while potential liability exists, after the Employment Period in the same amount and to the same extent as the Company covers its other officers and directors. 

  
 14 

 13. Arbitration. 

The parties agree that any dispute relating to this Agreement, or to the breach of this Agreement, arising between
Executive and the Company shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), or any other mutually agreed upon arbitration
service; provided, however, that temporary and preliminary injunctive relief to enforce the covenants contained in Section 10 of this Agreement, and related expedited discovery, may be pursued in a court of law to provide temporary injunctive
relief pending a final determination of all issues of final relief through arbitration. The arbitration proceeding, including the rendering of an award, shall take place in Houston, Texas, and shall be administered by the AAA (or any other mutually
agreed upon arbitration service). The arbitrator shall be jointly selected by the Company and Executive within thirty (30) days of the notice of dispute, or if the parties cannot agree, in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the
AAA (or any other mutually agreed upon arbitration service). All fees and expenses associated with the arbitration shall be borne equally by Executive and the Company during the arbitration, pending final decision by the arbitrator as to who should
bear fees, unless otherwise ordered by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall not be authorized to create a cause of action or remedy not recognized by applicable state or federal law. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award final injunctive
relief. The award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties without appeal or review, except as permitted by the arbitration laws of the State of Texas. The award, inclusive of any and all injunctive relief provided for therein,
shall be enforceable through a court of law upon motion of either party. 
 14. Requirement of Timely
Payments. 
 If any amounts which are required, or determined to be paid or payable, or reimbursed or
reimbursable, to Executive under this Agreement (or any other plan, agreement, policy or arrangement with the Company) are not so paid promptly at the times provided herein or therein, such amounts shall accrue interest, compounded daily, at an 8%
annual percentage rate, from the date such amounts were required or determined to have been paid or payable, reimbursed or reimbursable to Executive, until such amounts and any interest accrued thereon are finally and fully paid, provided, however,
that in no event shall the amount of interest contracted for, charged or received hereunder, exceed the maximum non-usurious amount of interest allowed by applicable law. 

15. Withholding of Taxes. 
 The Company may withhold from any compensation and benefits payable under this Agreement all applicable federal, state, local, or other taxes. 

16. Source of Payments. 
 All payments provided under this Agreement, other than payments made pursuant to a plan which provides otherwise, shall be paid from the general funds of the Company, and no special or separate fund shall
be established, and no other segregation of assets made, to assure payment. Executive shall have no right, title or interest whatever in or to any investments which the Company may make to aid the Company in meeting its obligations hereunder. To the
extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured creditor of the Company.

 17. Assignment. 

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, and assigns. Except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Executive, and Executive’s heirs, representatives, and successors. This Agreement shall not be assignable by Executive (but any payments due hereunder which
would be payable at a time after Executive’s death shall be paid to Executive’s estate). 
 18.
Entire Agreement; Amendment. 
 This Agreement shall supersede any and all existing oral or written
agreements, representations, or warranties between Executive and the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated entities relating to the terms of Executive’s employment by the Company; provided, however, that if all or any material part
of the Protective Covenants provided for in this Agreement are deemed void or unenforceable, then any prior agreement between the parties covering the same or substantially similar restrictions on Executive (such as, but not limited to the
Company’s prior Employment Agreement(s) or Loyalty And Confidentiality Agreement with Executive) shall resume effect to the extent necessary to maintain protection of the Company’s legitimate protectable interests covered by the Protective
Covenants. This Agreement may not be amended except by a written agreement signed by both parties. No material term or obligation of a party may be waived except through written agreement by the party with the authority to enforce such right or
obligation. 
 19. Governing Law and Venue. 

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas applicable to
agreements made and to be performed in that State, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The parties agree that any legal action arising from this Agreement that is not required to be resolved through arbitration pursuant to
Section 13 must be pursued in a court of competent jurisdiction that is located in Houston, Texas.

 21. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on any occasion
shall not be considered a waiver thereof or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. 

(b) Severability. Subject to Section 11 hereof, if any term or provision of this Agreement is declared illegal
or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction and cannot be modified to be enforceable, such term or provision shall immediately become null and void, leaving the remainder of this Agreement in full force and effect. 

(c) Headings. Section headings are used herein for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning
of any provision of this Agreement. 
 (d) Rules of Construction. Whenever the context so requires, the
use of the singular shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa. 
 (e) Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts will together constitute but one Agreement. 

22. Potential Limitation on Severance Benefits. 

(a) Maximum Severance Amount. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a
qualifying termination (or resignation) under Section 6(e) or Section 7 of this Agreement it is determined by the Company that the Severance Benefits (as defined in Section 22(b) below) would exceed 2.99 times the sum of the
Executive’s then current base salary and target bonus (the “Maximum Severance Amount”), then the aggregate present value of the Severance Benefits provided to the Executive shall be reduced by the Company to the Reduced Amount. The
“Reduced Amount” shall be an amount, expressed in present value, that maximizes the aggregate present value of the Severance Benefits without exceeding the Maximum Severance Amount. 

(b) Severance Benefits. For purposes of determining Severance Benefits under Section 22(a) above, Severance
Benefits means the present value of payments or distributions by the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliated entities to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or provided pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise), and

 (A) including: (i) cash amounts payable by the Company in the event of termination of Executive’s
employment; and (ii) the present value of benefits or perquisites provided for periods after termination of employment (but excluding benefits or perquisites provided to employees generally); and 

(B) excluding: (i) payments of salary, bonus or performance award amounts that had accrued at the time of
termination; (ii) payments based on accrued qualified and non-qualified deferred compensation plans, including retirement and savings benefits; (iii) any benefits or perquisites provided under plans or programs applicable to employees
generally; (iv) amounts paid as part of any agreement intended to “make-whole” any 

  
 17 

 
forfeiture of benefits from a prior employer; (v) amounts paid for services following termination of employment for a reasonable consulting agreement for a period not to exceed one year;
(vi) amounts paid for post-termination covenants (such as a covenant not to compete); (vii) the value of accelerated vesting or payment of any outstanding equity-based award; and (viii) any payment that the Board or any committee
thereof determines in good faith to be a reasonable settlement of any claim made against the Company. 
 (c)
Possible 280G Reduction. Following application of Section 22(a), in the event that the payment of the remaining Severance Benefits to Executive plus any other payments to Executive which would be subject to Internal Revenue Code
Section 280G (including any reduced Severance Benefits) (“280G Severance Benefits”) would be subject (in whole or part), to any excise tax imposed under Internal Revenue Code Section 4999 (the “Excise Tax”), then the
cash portion of the 280G Severance Benefits shall first be further reduced, and the non-cash 280G Severance Benefits shall thereafter be further reduced, to the extent necessary so that no portion of the 280G Severance Benefits is subject to the
Excise Tax, but only if (i) the amount of the 280G Severance Benefits to be received by Executive, as so reduced by this Section 22(c) and after subtracting the amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such reduced 280G Severance
Benefits (after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced 280G Severance Benefits) is greater than or equal to (ii) the amount of the 280G Severance Benefits to be received by
Executive without such reduction by this Section 22(c) after subtracting the amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such 280G Severance Benefits and the amount of the Excise Tax to which Executive would be subject in respect of such
unreduced 280G Severance Benefits (after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced 280G Severance Benefits ). 

(d) Calculation of 280G Severance Benefits. For purposes of determining the 280G Severance Benefits, (i) no
portion of the 280G Severance Benefits, the receipt or enjoyment of which Executive shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b), shall
be taken into account, (ii) no portion of the 280G Severance Benefits shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of tax counsel (“Tax Counsel”) who is reasonably acceptable to Executive and selected by the accounting firm (the
“Auditor”) which was, immediately prior to the Change in Control, the Company’s independent auditor, does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b)(2) (including by
reason of Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b)(4)(A)); (iii) no portion of the 280G Severance Benefits shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of Tax Counsel, constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered,
within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b)(4)(B), in excess of the “base amount” (as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(b)(3)) allocable to such reasonable compensation, and (iv) the value of any
non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the 280G Severance Benefits shall be determined by the Auditor in accordance with the principles of Internal Revenue Code Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4). 

(e) Determination of Present Value. For purposes of this Section 22, the present value of Severance Benefits
and 280G Severance Benefits 280G shall be determined in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 280G(d)(4). 

  
 18 

 23. Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A.

 (a) Compliance. It is the intention of the Company and Executive that this Employment Agreement not
result in unfavorable tax consequences to Executive under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. This Section 23 does not create an obligation on the part of Company to modify the Employment Agreement in the future and does not guarantee that
the amounts or benefits owed under the Employment Agreement will not be subject to interest and penalties under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. 
 (b) Payment Timing. The payments of severance under Sections 6(e)(iii) and (iv) and Sections 7(a)(i) and (ii) above (“Separation Payments”) are designated as separate payments
for purposes of the short-term deferral rules under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4)(i)(F), and, with respect to such Separation Payments, the exemption for involuntary terminations under separation pay plans under Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii). As a result, (A) Separation Payments that are by their terms scheduled to be made on or before March 15th of the calendar year following the applicable year of termination, (B) any additional
Separation Payments that are made on or before December 31st of the second calendar year following the year of Executive’s termination and do not exceed the lesser of two times Base Salary or two times the limit under Internal Revenue Code
Section 401(a)(17) then in effect, and (C) any Separation Payments under Section 7(a) made on account of a 409A Change in Control within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A are exempt from the requirements of
Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. If Executive is designated as a “specified employee” within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, then to the extent the Disability Payments and Separation Payments to be made
during the first six month period following Executive’s termination of employment exceed such exempt amounts, the payments shall be withheld and the amount of the payments withheld will be paid in a lump sum, with interest (at the
Company’s then applicable overnight rate), on the date that is six (6) months and one (1) day after Executive’s termination. Continued medical benefits under Sections 6(e)(v) and 7(a)(i) above are intended to satisfy the
exemption for medical expense reimbursements under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v)(B).
