                                                                  EXECUTION COPY

                                IESI CORPORATION

                             1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN

1.   PURPOSE. The purpose of the IESI Corporation 1999 Stock Option Plan (the
"Plan") is to provide (i) key employees of IESI Corporation (the "Company") and
its subsidiaries, (ii) certain consultants and advisors who perform services for
the Company or its subsidiaries, and (iii) members of the Board of Directors of
the Company (the "Board"), with the opportunity to acquire shares of the Class A
Voting Common Stock of the Company ("Common Stock"). The Company believes that
the Plan will enhance the incentive for participants to contribute to the growth
of the Company, thereby benefiting the Company and the Company's shareholders,
and will align the economic interests of the participants with those of the
shareholders.

2.   ADMINISTRATION.

          2.1       COMMITTEE. The Plan shall be administered and interpreted by
          the Compensation Committee (the "Committee"). The Committee may
          consist of two or more members of the Board who are "outside
          directors" as defined under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue
          Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and "non-employee directors" as
          defined under Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
          amended (the "Exchange Act").

          2.2       AUTHORITY OF COMMITTEE. The Committee has the sole
          authority, subject to the provisions of the Plan, to (i) select the
          employees and other individuals to be granted options under the Plan
          ("Options"), (ii) determine the type, size and terms of the grant of
          Options to be made to each individual selected, (iii) determine the
          time when Options will be granted and the duration of any applicable
          exercise period, including the criteria for exercisability and the
          acceleration of exercisability and (iv) deal with any other matter
          arising under the Plan. The Committee is authorized to interpret the
          Plan and the Options granted under the Plan, to establish, amend and
          rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make
          any other determination that it deems necessary or desirable for the
          administration of the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect or
          supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in
          any Option in the manner and to the extent the Committee deems
          necessary or desirable. Any decision of the Committee in the
          interpretation and administration of the Plan shall lie within its
          sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and
          binding on all parties concerned. All powers of the Committee shall be
          executed in its sole discretion and need not be uniform as to
          similarly situated individuals. Any act of the Committee with respect
          to the Plan may only be undertaken and executed with the affirmative
          consent of at least two-thirds of the members of the Committee.

          2.3       RESPONSIBILITY OF COMMITTEE. No member of the Board, no
          member of the Committee and no employee of the Company shall be liable
          for any act or failure to act hereunder, except in circumstances
          involving his or her bad faith, gross negligence or willful
          misconduct, or for any act or failure to act hereunder by any other
          member of the Committee or employee of the Company. The Company shall
          indemnify members of the

<Page>

          Committee and any employee of the Company against any and all
          liabilities or expenses to which they may be subjected by reason of
          any act or failure to act with respect to their duties under the Plan,
          except in circumstances involving his or her bad faith, gross
          negligence or willful misconduct.

          2.4       DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY. The Committee may delegate to an
          officer of the Company the authority to (i) make grants under the Plan
          to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries who are not subject
          to the restrictions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and who are
          not expected to be subject to the limitations of Section 162(m) of the
          Code, and (ii) execute and deliver documents or take any other
          ministerial actions on behalf of the Committee with respect to
          Options. The grant of authority under this Subsection 2.4 shall be
          subject to such conditions and limitations as may be determined by the
          Committee. If the Chairman makes grants pursuant to the delegated
          authority under this Subsection 2.4, references in the Plan to the
          "Committee" as they relate to making such grants shall be deemed to
          refer to the Chairman.

3.   PARTICIPANTS. All employees, officers and directors of the Company and its
subsidiaries (including members of the Board who are not employees), as well as
consultants and advisors to the Company or its subsidiaries, are eligible to
participate in the Plan. Consistent with the purposes of the Plan, the Committee
shall have exclusive power to select the employees, officers, directors and
consultants and advisors who may be granted Options under the Plan
("Optionees"). Eligible individuals may be selected individually or by groups or
categories, as determined by the Committee in its discretion, and designation as
a person to receive Options in any year shall not require the Committee to
designate such a person as eligible to receive Options in any other year.

4.   OPTIONS UNDER THE PLAN.

          4.1       COMMON STOCK AVAILABLE FOR OPTIONS. The aggregate number of
          shares of Common Stock that may be subject to Options shall be
          2,000,000 shares of Common Stock, which may be authorized and unissued
          or treasury shares, subject to any adjustments made in accordance with
          Section 5 hereof. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock with
          respect to which Options may be granted to any individual Optionee
          shall be 1,000,000 shares. Any share of Common Stock subject to an
          Option that for any reason is cancelled or terminated without having
          been exercised shall again be available for Options under the Plan;
          provided, however, that any such availability shall apply only for
          purposes of determining the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock
          subject to Options and shall not apply for purposes of determining the
          maximum number of shares subject to Options that any individual
          Optionee may receive.

          4.2       OPTIONS. Options are awards from the Company that will
          enable an Optionee to purchase shares of Common Stock, and they are
          not to be treated as "incentive stock options" within the meaning of
          Section 422(b) of the Code. Each Option shall be evidenced by an
          option agreement ("Option Agreement") and shall be subject to the
          terms, conditions and restrictions consistent with the Plan as the
          Committee may impose from time to time, subject to the following
          limitations:

                                       -2-
<Page>

          4.2.1     EXERCISE PRICE. The price per share (the "Exercise Price")
          of Common Stock subject to an Option shall be determined by the
          Committee and may be equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value
          (as defined below) of a share of Common Stock on the date the Option
          is granted.

          If Common Stock is publicly traded, then the "Fair Market Value" per
          share shall be determined as follows: (x) if the principal trading
          market for the Common Stock is a national securities exchange or the
          Nasdaq National Market, the last reported sale price thereof on the
          relevant date or (if there were no trades on that date) the latest
          preceding date upon which a sale was reported, or (y) if the Common
          Stock is not principally traded on such exchange or market, the mean
          between the last reported "bid" and "asked" prices of Common Stock on
          the relevant date, as reported on Nasdaq or, if not so reported, as
          reported by the National Daily Quotation Bureau, Inc. or as reported
          in a customary financial reporting service, as applicable and as the
          Committee determines. If the Company Stock is not publicly traded or,
          if publicly traded, is not subject to reported transactions or "bid"
          or "asked" quotations as set forth above, the Fair Market Value per
          share shall be as determined by the Committee.

          4.2.2     PAYMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE. The Exercise Price may be paid in
          cash or, in the discretion of the Committee, by the delivery of shares
          of Common Stock that have been owned by the Optionee for at least six
          months, or by a combination of these methods. In the discretion of the
          Committee, payment may also be made by delivering a properly executed
          exercise notice to the Company together with a copy of irrevocable
          instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount
          of sale or loan proceeds to pay the Exercise Price. To facilitate the
          foregoing, the Company may enter into agreements for coordinated
          procedures with one or more brokerage firms. The Committee may
          prescribe any other method of paying the Exercise Price that it
          determines to be consistent with applicable law and the purpose of the
          Plan, including, without limitation, in lieu of the exercise of an
          Option by delivery of shares of Common Stock of the Company then owned
          by Optionee, providing the Company with a notarized statement
          attesting to the number of shares owned for at least six months, where
          upon verification by the Company, the Company would issue to the
          Optionee only the number of incremental shares to which the Optionee
          is entitled upon exercise of the Option.

          4.2.3     EXERCISE PERIOD. Options shall be exercisable at such time
          or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be
          determined by the Committee; provided, however, that no Option shall
          be exercisable later than ten years after the date it is granted. All
          Options shall terminate at such earlier times and upon such conditions
          or circumstances as the Committee shall in its discretion set forth in
          the Option Agreement at the date of grant.

                                       -3-

          4.3  TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT, DISABILITY OR DEATH.

               4.3.1     Except as provided below (or in an Option Agreement),
               an Option may only be exercised while the Optionee is employed
               by, or providing service to, the Company as an employee, member
               of the Board or advisor or consultant. In the event that an
               Optionee ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the
               Company for any reason other than Disability (as defined in
               Paragraph (4.3.5) below), death or a termination for Cause (as
               defined in Paragraph (4.3.5) below), any Option which is
               otherwise exercisable by the Optionee shall terminate unless
               exercised within 90 days after the date on which the Optionee
               ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company, but
               in any event no later than the date of expiration of the Option.
               Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, any Optionee's
               Options which are not otherwise exercisable as of the date on
               which the Optionee ceases to be employed by, or provide service
               to, the Company shall terminate as of such date.

               4.3.2     In the event the Optionee ceases to be employed by, or
               provide service to, the Company on account of a termination for
               Cause by the Company or a termination by the Optionee, any Option
               held by the Optionee shall terminate as of the date the Optionee
               ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the Company. In
               addition, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4,
               if the Committee determines that the Optionee has engaged in
               conduct that constitutes Cause at any time while the Optionee is
               employed by, or providing service to, the Company, or after the
               Optionee's termination of employment or service, any Option held
               by the Optionee shall immediately terminate. In the event the
               Committee determines that the Optionee has engaged in conduct
               that constitutes Cause, in addition to the immediate termination
               of all Options, the Optionee shall automatically forfeit all
               shares underlying any exercised portion of an Option for which
               the Company has not yet delivered the share certificates, upon
               refund by the Company of the Exercise Price paid by the Optionee
               for such shares (subject to any right of setoff by the Company).

               4.3.3     In the event the Optionee ceases to be employed by, or
               provide service to, the Company because the Optionee is Disabled,
               any Option which is otherwise exercisable by the Optionee shall
               terminate unless exercised within one year after the date on
               which the Optionee ceases to be employed by, or provide service
               to, the Company, but in any event no later than the date of
               expiration of the Option.

               4.3.4     If the Optionee dies while employed by, or providing
               service to, the Company, any Option which is otherwise
               exercisable by the Optionee shall terminate unless exercised
               within one year after the date on which the Optionee ceases to be
               employed by, or provide service to, the Company, but in any event
               no later than the date of expiration of the Option.

                         disclosed trade secrets or confidential information of
                         the Company to persons not entitled to receive such
                         information.

          4.4       INTERPRETATION OF OPTIONS. In the event of any conflict
          between the provisions of the Plan and the provisions of any Option
          Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall be controlling.

5.   ADJUSTMENTS TO THE OPTIONS. In the event of any change in the outstanding
Common Stock of the Company by reason of any stock split, stock dividend,
split-up, split-off, spin-off, recapitalization, merger, consolidation,
reorganization, combination or exchange of shares, a sale by the Company of all
or part of its assets, or in the event of any distribution to stockholders other
than a normal cash dividend, or other extraordinary or unusual event, if the
Committee shall determine, in its discretion, that such change equitably
requires an adjustment in the terms of any Option or the number of shares of
Common Stock available for Options, such adjustment may be made by the Committee
and shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes of the Plan.

6.   CHANGE IN CONTROL.

          6.1       EFFECT. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as
          defined below), each outstanding Option on the date of such Change in
          Control shall become exercisable in full (whether or not then
          exercisable). In its sole discretion, the Committee may determine
          that, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each outstanding
          Option shall terminate within a specified number of days after notice
          to the Optionee thereunder, and each such Optionee shall receive, with
          respect to each share of Common Stock subject to such Option, an
          amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of such shares
          immediately prior to such Change in Control over the exercise price
          per share of such Option; such amount shall be payable in cash, in one
          or more kinds of property

                                       -5-

          (including the property, if any, payable in the transaction) or a
          combination thereof, as the Committee shall determine in its sole
          discretion.

          6.2       DEFINED. For purposes of this Plan, a Change in Control
          shall be deemed to have occurred if:

                    6.2.1  a tender offer (or series of related offers) shall be
                    made and consummated for the ownership of 50% or more of the
                    outstanding voting securities of the Company;

                    6.2.2  the Company shall be merged or consolidated with
                    another corporation and as a result of such merger or
                    consolidation less than 50% of the outstanding voting
                    securities of the surviving or resulting corporation shall
                    be owned in the aggregate by the former shareholders of the
                    Company, any employee benefit plan of the Company or its
                    subsidiaries, and their affiliates;

                    6.2.3  the Company shall sell substantially all of its
                    assets to another corporation that is not wholly owned by
                    the Company; or

                    6.2.4  a Person (as defined below) shall acquire 50% or more
                    of the outstanding voting securities of the Company (whether
                    directly, indirectly, beneficially or of record).

          For purposes of this Section 6.2, ownership of voting securities shall
take into account and shall include ownership as determined by applying the
provisions of Rule 13d-3(d)(I)(i) (as in effect on the date hereof) under the
Exchange Act. Also for purposes of this Subsection 6.2, Person shall have the
meaning given in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act, as modified and used in
Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof; however, a Person shall not include (1) the
Company or any of its subsidiaries; (2) a trustee or other fiduciary holding
securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries; (3) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an
offering of such securities; or (4) a corporation owned, directly or indirectly,
by the shareholders of the Company in substantially the same proportion as their
ownership of stock of the Company.

7.   TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. Except as provided below, an Optionee's rights
under an Option may not be transferred or encumbered, except by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations
order (as defined under Section 414(p) the Code).

8.   WITHHOLDING. All distributions made with respect to an Option shall be net
of any amounts required to be withheld pursuant to applicable federal, state and
local tax withholding requirements. The Company may require an Optionee to remit
to it or to the corporation that employs an Optionee an amount sufficient to
satisfy such tax withholding requirements prior to the delivery of any
certificates for Common Stock. In lieu thereof, the Company or the employing
corporation shall have the right to withhold the amount of such taxes from any
other sums due or to become due to the Optionee as the Company shall prescribe.
The Committee may, in its discretion and subject to such rules as it may adopt,
permit an Optionee to pay all or a

                                       -6-
<Page>

portion of the federal, state and local withholding taxes arising in connection
with any Option exercise by electing to have the Company withhold shares of
Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of tax to be
withheld.

9.   SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. An Optionee shall not have any of the rights or
privileges of a holder of Common Stock for any Common Stock that is subject to
an Option, including any rights regarding voting or the payment of dividends,
unless and until a certificate representing such Common Stock has been delivered
to the Optionee.

10.  TENURE. An Optionee's right, if any, to continue to serve the Company or
its subsidiaries as a director, officer, employee, consultant or advisor shall
not be expanded or otherwise affected by his or her designation as an Optionee.

11.  NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued
or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Option. The Committee shall determine
whether cash shall be paid in lieu of fractional shares or whether such
fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise
eliminated.

12.  DURATION, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. No Option may be granted more than ten
years after the Effective Date (as described in Section 14 below). The Plan may
be amended or suspended in whole or in part at any time and from time to time by
the Board, but no amendment shall be effective unless and until the same is
approved by shareholders of the Company where the Amendment would (i) increase
the total number of shares which may be issued under the Plan or (ii) increase
the maximum number of shares of Common Stock with respect to Options that may be
granted to any individual Optionee. No amendment or suspension of the Plan shall
adversely affect in a material manner any right of any Optionee with respect to
any Option theretofore granted without such Optionee's written consent.

13.  GOVERNING LAW. This Plan, Options granted hereunder and actions taken in
connection with the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware
regardless of the law that might otherwise apply under applicable principles of
conflicts of laws.

14.  EFFECTIVE DATE. This Plan shall be effective as of January 1, 1999, which
is date as of which the Plan was adopted by the Board.

APPROVED
