1 Summary of Advantages of Sale of SPSA’s WTE Facilities Presented to SPSA Member Communities February 2010

2 Benefits of Selling WTE Facilities Reduce SPSA debt by approx. $142 million Reduce debt service: average 60+% less Reduce capital expenditures – Cell VII expansion: $30 million – Two new transfer stations: $22 million Reduce operational expenses Extend landfill life through diversion of non- processables Reduce operational risks and complexity – more certainty 2

3 SPSA Financial Viability SPSA system remains unchanged – WTE Facilities owned by Wheelabrator but remains part of SPSA system through the service agreements (i.e. commitment of municipal waste to Wheelabrator) – Suffolk Landfill (SPSA) – Transfer Stations (SPSA) – Other services (SPSA) Use and Support Agreements valid Funding of system remains same through the tipping fees 3

4 Key VRA Requirements Member community guarantee of outstanding reduced VRA debt (~$50M) (See slide 6 and 7 for lenders’ positions) Debt retirement plan – Proportional debt reduction among lenders – Levelized remaining debt service Inter-creditor agreements among SPSA lenders 4

5 Debt Retirement Plan Options Considered – Pro rata reduction of all debt (Ambac, Wachovia, VRA, and Virginia Beach) – levelize remaining debt service. – Retire all but VRA 2009 bonds and City of Virginia Beach debt (Considered a “non-starter with the VRA and CAO’s), backloads debt service (sinking fund considered) – Pro rata reduction of all but Wachovia debt, which allows for full payback of Virginia Beach loan (note: approach is acceptable to Wachovia) 5
