Equity Based Incentive Awards. At the sole discretion of the Board or the Committee, the Executive shall be eligible to participate throughout the Employment Term in such long-term incentive plans and programs as may be in effect from time to time in accordance with the Company’s compensation practices and the terms and provisions of any such plans or programs.

Equity Based Incentive Awards. Marciano shall not be eligible to receive equity or other non-cash awards under the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, any successor plan or otherwise with respect to his provision of the Consulting Services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the award agreements evidencing Marciano’s stock options, restricted stock awards or other equity awards that are currently outstanding and not otherwise vested or scheduled to vest in accordance with their terms on or before the Retirement Date (the “Outstanding Unvested Equity Awards”), any Outstanding Unvested Equity Awards shall not terminate or be forfeited on the Retirement Date so long as Marciano continues to serve on the Board immediately following the Retirement Date. Instead, any Outstanding Unvested Equity Awards shall continue to become vested and exercisable based on Marciano’s continued service as a member of the Board, on the same basis as if he had remained an employee of the Company for the period of time he continues to serve on the Board, with each installment of such Outstanding Unvested Equity Awards becoming vested and exercisable on the applicable vesting date as long as Marciano continues to serve as a member of the Board through the applicable vesting date. With respect to any Outstanding Unvested Equity Awards that are stock options, the date Marciano ceases to serve as a member of the Board shall be treated as Marciano’s “Severance Date” for purposes of the applicable award agreements, and Marciano will be considered to have retired from the Company on such Severance Date for purposes of such award agreements. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Employment Agreement, Marciano shall not be eligible to receive any performance share, stock option or other awards under the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan or any successor plan with respect to his employment by the Company during the Company’s current fiscal year (fiscal 2012). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5 is intended as, nor shall be construed as, an amendment to the terms of any of Marciano’s stock options, restricted stock awards or other equity awards that are not Outstanding Unvested Equity Awards (i.e., equity awards that are currently vested or scheduled to vest in accordance with their terms on or before the Retirement Date).

Equity Based Incentive Awards. As partial consideration for this Agreement, the Executive has or will receive the following equity award grants on the dates specified and on the additional terms and conditions set forth on Schedule 1 (collectively, the “Initial Equity Grant”): (i) 250,000 shares of restricted stock on April 20, 2006, (ii) 500,000 common stock options on April 20, 2006 and (iii) 400,000 common stock options on January 1, 2007. In addition to the Initial Equity Grant, during the Term the Executive may, in the sole discretion of the Board after consideration of the recommendations of the Compensation Committee, receive one or more additional equity award grants (“Equity Awards”) from time to time. Any such Equity Awards will be determined by the Board in its sole discretion, after consideration of the recommendations of the Compensation Committee, and will take into account the following factors, among others: (a) the Company’s needs in retaining the services of the Executive, (b) the amount and nature of Equity Awards granted to other executives and employees, and (c) the specific role and contribution of the Executive. In determining whether to make an Equity Award and in determining the amount of any Equity Award, the Board (and the Compensation Committee in making its recommendations to the Board) will focus on overall Company performance and individual contributions to the achievement of established Company goals as well as on comparable marketplace compensation comparisons. The Executive acknowledges that although additional Equity Awards may be granted, such Equity Awards are neither required nor guaranteed by this Agreement. The Initial Equity Grant will be granted in accordance with, and governed by the terms and conditions of, the Company’s Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”). Any additional Equity Awards will be granted in accordance with, and governed by the terms and conditions of, the Stock Option Plan and any replacement or superseding plan, as applicable.

Equity Based Incentive Awards. In order to compensate Executive for the forfeited awards from his prior employer, on or about the Employment Date, the Company will grant Executive a one-time award of 10,000 Restricted Stock Units equivalent to the Company’s common stock (“RSU’s”) pursuant to the Waste Management, Inc. 2004 Stock Incentive Plan. This grant of RSU’s will be subject to the restrictions imposed by, and governed by the provisions of, the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan and the award agreement issued to Executive in connection thereto. The RSU’s shall vest in their entirety on the third (3rd) anniversary of the grant date of the award, unless earlier vested or forfeited pursuant to the terms of the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan or award agreement. On or about January 29, 2007, Executive will also be entitled to receive grant(s) under the Company’s equity based compensation plan(s) to the same extent and on the same basis as other similarly-situated executive employees generally.
