ITEM 1. CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT.
Reference is made to Item 2 of this Report for a description of the
Merger which resulted in the change of control of the Registrant. Capitalized
terms used but not defined in this Item 1 have the meanings assigned to them in
Item 2.
As a result of the Merger, as of June 30, 1995 the Chambers
Stockholders beneficially own approximately 54.7% of the issued and outstanding
USA Common.
In connection with the Merger, USA Waste, certain USA Waste
Shareholders (Donald F. Moorehead, Jr. and John E. Drury) and certain Chambers
Stockholders (John G. Rangos, Sr., John G. Rangos, Jr., Alexander W. Rangos and
John Rangos Development Corporation, Inc. (the "Rangos Shareholders")) entered
into a Shareholders Agreement dated June 30, 1995 (the "Shareholders
Agreement"). The Shareholders Agreement provides certain rights to the Rangos
Shareholders to name or participate in the naming of certain members to the
Board of Directors of USA Waste and to name certain members of the Executive
Committee of the Board of Directors of USA Waste. In addition, the
Shareholders Agreement requires the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of
the members of the USA Waste Board of Directors to take certain actions. The
Shareholders Agreement will remain in effect until the aggregate number of
shares of USA Common beneficially held by the Rangos Shareholders and their
affiliates is less than five percent of the outstanding shares of USA Common.
Immediately after the Merger, the Rangos Shareholders control approximately 21%
of the USA Common and Donald F. Moorehead, Jr. and John E. Drury collectively
control approximately 5% of such stock.
Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, USA Waste and Messrs.
Moorehead and Drury were obligated, immediately after the Merger, to use their
best efforts to cause John G. Rangos, Sr. and Alexander W. Rangos to be
appointed as directors of USA Waste. Accordingly, such appointments were made
and were effective as of the effective time of the Merger. In addition, during
the term of the Shareholders Agreement, USA Waste, Messrs. Moorehead and Drury,
and the Rangos Shareholders will use their best efforts to cause the Board of
Directors to include at all times (in addition to the two directors designated
by the Rangos Shareholders) four persons who are approved by at least four
members of an Executive Committee of the Board of Directors and none of whom is
an officer or employee of USA Waste or Chambers. The Shareholders Agreement
also provides that USA Waste and Messrs. Moorehead and Drury will use their
best efforts to establish and maintain an Executive Committee of the Board of
Directors consisting of five directors and to cause the Executive Committee to
include the two directors designated by the Rangos Shareholders.
ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On June 30, 1995, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Agreement and
Plan of Merger, dated as of November 28, 1994, as amended (the "Merger
Agreement"), between USA
2
<PAGE> 3
Waste Services, Inc. ("USA Waste"), Chambers Acquisition Corporation
("Acquisition") and Chambers Development Company, Inc. ("Chambers"),
Acquisition merged with and into Chambers, whereupon Chambers became a wholly
owned subsidiary of USA Waste (the "Merger"). Chambers Class A common stock,
par value $0.50 per share, and Common Stock, par value $0.50 per share
(collectively, "Chambers Common"), is no longer transferable, and certificates
evidencing shares of Chambers Common represent only the right to receive the
shares of USA Waste Common Stock ("USA Common") into which such shares were
converted upon consummation of the Merger. In accordance with the provisions
of the Merger Agreement, the holders of shares of Chambers Common (the
"Chambers Stockholders") will receive .41667 (the "Exchange Ratio") of a share
of USA Common for each share of Chambers Common held, or an aggregate of
approximately 27.8 million shares of USA Common. Also pursuant to the Merger
Agreement, each unexpired and unexercised option to purchase Chambers Common
(each a "Chambers Option") has automatically been converted into an option to
purchase that number of shares of USA Common equal to the number of shares of
Chambers Common that could have been purchased under the Chambers Option
multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, at a price per share of USA Common equal to
the option exercise price determined pursuant to the Chambers Option divided by
the Exchange Ratio. The shareholders of USA Waste (the "USA Waste
Shareholders") and the Chambers Stockholders approved the Merger on June 27,
1994. The Exchange Ratio was determined through negotiations between the
managements of USA Waste and Chambers and was approved by their respective
boards of directors. Cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares of USA
Common (on the basis of $15.00 per share). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement,
no interest will be paid or accrued on the consideration paid in the Merger.
The Merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests.
Chambers is a provider of integrated solid waste services in the
United States, with operations or properties in 13 states. Chambers is engaged
in the operation, management, construction and engineering of solid waste
sanitary landfills, transfer stations, recycling facilities and related
operations, and provides services for the collection, hauling and recycling of
solid waste for municipal, commercial, industrial and residential customers.
Chambers presently owns or operates 14 sanitary landfills, one construction and
one demolition debris landfill and one medical, special and municipal waste
incinerator. Chambers is continuing such operations as a wholly owned
subsidiary of USA Waste.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
The Board of Directors
USA Waste Services, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying supplemental consolidated balance sheets of
USA Waste Services, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 1994 and 1993 and
the related supplemental consolidated statements of operations, stockholders'
equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1994. These supplemental consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these supplemental consolidated financial statements based on our
audits. We did not audit the consolidated financial statements of Chambers
Development Company, Inc. ("Chambers"), a wholly-owned subsidiary, which
statements reflect total assets constituting 62 percent and 71 percent in 1994
and 1993, respectively, and total revenues constituting 59 percent, 75 percent
and 84 percent in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, of the related
supplemental consolidated totals. Those statements were audited by other
auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it
relates to the amounts included for Chambers, is based solely on the report of
the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
The supplemental consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to
the merger of the Company and Chambers on June 30, 1995, which has been
accounted for as a pooling of interests as described in Notes 1 and 2 to the
supplemental consolidated financial statements. Generally accepted accounting
principles proscribe giving effect to a consummated business combination
accounted for by the pooling of interests methods in financial statements that
do not include the date of consummation. These financial statements do not
extend through the date of consummation; however, they will become the
historical consolidated financial statements of the Company after financial
statements covering the date of consummation of the business combination are
issued.

<PAGE> 6
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors, the
supplemental consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of
December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applicable after
financial statements are issued for a period which includes the date of
consummation of the business combination.
As discussed in Note 1, the Company changed its method of accounting for
contributions effective January 1, 1994.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Chambers Development Company,
Inc.:
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Chambers
Development Company, Inc. ("Chambers") and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994
and 1993, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders'
equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1994 (not presented separately herein). These financial statements are the
responsibility of Chambers' management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Chambers Development
Company, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1994 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
As discussed in Note B to Chambers' consolidated financial statements,
Chambers changed its method of accounting for contributions effective January

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business - USA Waste Services, Inc. (the "Company") is engaged in the
non-hazardous solid waste management business and provides solid waste
management services, consisting of collection, transfer, disposal, soil
remediation and recycling services to municipal, commercial, industrial and
residential customers. The Company conducts operations through subsidiaries in
multiple locations nationwide.
Basis of presentation - The supplemental consolidated financial
statements of the Company have been prepared to give retroactive effect to the
merger with Chambers Development Company, Inc. ("Chambers") on June 30, 1995
("the Merger"). Generally accepted accounting principles proscribe giving
effect to a consummated business combination accounted for by the pooling of
interests methods in financial statements that do not include the date of
consummation. These financial statements do not extend through the date of
consummation; however, they will become the historical consolidated financial
statements of the Company after financial statements covering the date of
consummation of the business combination are issued. In addition, the
shareholders of the Company approved an amendment to the Certificate of
Incorporation to increase the authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000
to 150,000,000 shares. These supplemental consolidated financial statements
give retroactive effect to this amendment.
Principles of consolidation - The supplemental consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of USA Waste Services, Inc. and its
majority-owned subsidiaries after elimination of all material intercompany
balances and transactions. Investments in affiliated companies in which the
Company owns 50% or less are accounted for under the equity method or cost
method, as appropriate.
Cash and cash equivalents - The Company's cash and cash equivalents
consist primarily of cash on deposit, certificates of deposit, money market
accounts and investment grade commercial paper purchased with original
maturities of three months or less.
Restricted funds held by trustees - Restricted funds held by trustees
consist principally of funds deposited in connection with landfill closure and
post-closure obligations, insurance escrow deposits and amounts held for
landfill construction arising from industrial revenue financings. Amounts are
principally invested in fixed income securities of federal, state and local
governmental entities and financial institutions. The Company considers its
landfill closure, post-closure and construction escrow investments to be held
to maturity. The aggregate fair value of these investments approximates their
amortized cost. Substantially all of these investments mature within one year.
The Company's insurance escrow funds are invested in pooled investment accounts
that hold debt and equity securities and are considered to be available for
sale. The market value of those pooled accounts approximates their aggregate
cost at December 31, 1994.
Concentrations of credit risk - Financial instruments which
potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist
principally of temporary cash investments and accounts receivable.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable
14

USA WASTE SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
are limited due to the Company's large number of customers and their dispersion
across different geographic regions. The Company does not generally require
collateral for its accounts receivable. The Company does not believe a
material risk of loss exists with respect to its financial position due to
concentrations of credit risk as of December 31, 1994.
Interest rate swap agreements - The Company has used interest rate
swap agreements, the last of which expired in November 1993, to minimize the
impact of rate fluctuations on floating interest rate long-term borrowings.
The differential paid or received on interest rate swap agreements is
recognized as an adjustment to interest expense.
Property and equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost.
Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized, while minor
replacements, maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When
property is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is
included in current operations. Depreciation is provided over the estimated
useful lives of the assets involved using the straight-line method. The
estimated useful lives are seven to thirty years for buildings and
improvements, three to twenty years for vehicles and machinery and equipment,
three to twelve years for containers, and three to ten years for furniture and
fixtures.
Disposal sites are stated at cost and amortized as airspace is
consumed. Disposal site costs include expenditures for acquisitions of land and
related airspace, engineering and permitting costs, and direct site improvement
costs, which management believes are recoverable. Interest cost is capitalized
on landfill construction projects and amortized as airspace is consumed.
During the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, interest costs were
$38,035,000, $39,425,000, and $42,561,000 respectively, of which $3,977,000,
$3,450,000, and $6,721,000 were capitalized with respect to landfills and
facilities under construction.
Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment was
$46,432,000, $42,209,000 and $36,905,000 for the years ended December 31,
1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
Excess of cost over net assets of acquired businesses - The excess of
cost over net assets of acquired businesses is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over twenty-five years from the dates of the respective
acquisitions. Accumulated amortization was $7,100,000 and $3,906,000 at
December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The Company assesses whether its
excess of cost over net assets acquired is impaired based on the ability of the
operation to which it relates to generate cash flows in amounts adequate to
cover the amortization of such assets. If an impairment is determined, the
amount of such impairment is calculated based on the estimated fair value of
the asset.
Accounting for acquisitions - The Company assesses each acquisition to
determine whether the pooling of interests or the purchase method of accounting
for the acquisition
15
<PAGE> 16
USA WASTE SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
is appropriate. For those acquisitions accounted for under the pooling of
interests method, the financial statements of the acquired company are combined
with those of the Company at their historical amounts, and all periods
presented are restated as if the combination occurred on the first day of the
earliest year presented. For those acquisitions accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting, the Company allocates the cost of an acquired
business to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on the
estimates of fair values thereof. These estimates are revised during the
allocation period as necessary when information regarding contingencies becomes
available to define and quantify assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The
allocation period varies for each acquisition, but generally does not exceed
one year. To the extent contingencies such as preacquisition environmental
matters, litigation and related legal fees, and preacquisition tax matters are
resolved or settled during the allocation period, they are included in the
revised allocation of the purchase price. After the allocation period, the
effect of changes in such contingencies is included in results of operations in
the periods in which the adjustments are determined.
Other intangible assets - Other intangible assets consist primarily of
customer lists, covenants not to compete, and licenses and permits. Other
intangible assets are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis
over three to ten years. Accumulated amortization was $19,730,000 and
$16,635,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, excluding $1,279,000
related to assets held for sale at December 31, 1993.
Closure, post-closure and other liabilities - The Company has material
financial commitments for the costs associated with its future obligations for
closure and post-closure costs of landfills it operates or for which it is
otherwise responsible. While the precise amount of these future costs cannot
be determined with certainty, the Company has estimated that the aggregate
final closure and post-closure costs will be approximately $165,000,000 which,
for each landfill, will be fully accrued at the time the site stops accepting
waste and is closed. As of December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company has accrued
$38,990,000 and $30,072,000, respectively, for final closure and post-closure
costs of disposal facilities. The difference between the final closure and
post-closure costs accrued as of December 31, 1994 and the total estimated
final closure and post-closure costs to be incurred will be accrued and charged
to expense as airspace is consumed. The Company also expects to incur
approximately $200,000,000 related to capping activities expected to occur
during the operating lives of these disposal sites. These costs are also being
accrued over the useful lives of the disposal sites as airspace is consumed.
The Company bases its estimates for these accruals on management's
reviews, performed not less than annually, including input from its engineers
and interpretations of current requirements and proposed regulatory changes.
The closure and post-closure requirements are established under the standards
of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Subtitle D regulations as
implemented and applied on a state-by-state basis. Closure and post-closure
accruals consider estimates for the final cap and cover for the site,
16

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
methane gas control, leachate management and groundwater monitoring, and other
operational and maintenance costs to be incurred after the site stops accepting
waste, which is generally expected to be for a period of up to thirty years
after final site closure.
For disposal sites that were previously operated by others, the
Company assessed and recorded a closure and post-closure liability at the time
the Company assumed closure responsibility based upon the estimated total
closure and post-closure costs and the percentage of airspace utilized as of
such date. Thereafter, the difference between the closure and post-closure
costs accrued and the total estimated closure and post-closure costs to be
incurred are accrued and charged to expense as airspace is consumed. Also in
connection with the acquisition of certain businesses, the Company has recorded
a current liability of approximately $2,000,000 as of December 31, 1994,
relating to minor remediation activities that exist at certain of the Company's
facilities.
Accounting change - In the fourth quarter of 1994, the Company elected
early adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 116,
"Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions Made." The new
standard requires, among other things, the recognition as expense of the fair
value of contributions made, including unconditional promises to give, in the
period in which the contribution is made or unconditional promise is given.
Prior to adoption, the Company had recognized contributions made or
unconditional promises to give in the period the contribution was paid. On
December 29, 1994, the Company made unconditional promises to contribute
$3,000,000 to certain charitable organizations, payable in annual installments
of $500,000 over the next six years; accordingly, the Company has recorded a
charge to general and administrative expense of $2,269,000, representing the
present value of these obligations. There was no cumulative effect as of
January 1, 1994 of adopting the new standard.
Income taxes - Deferred taxes are determined based on the difference
between the financial accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred
income tax balances.
Revenue recognition - The Company recognizes revenues as services are
provided. Amounts billed and received prior to services being performed are
included in deferred revenues.
Earnings per share - Earnings per share computations are based on the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the dilutive
effect of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. The
dilutive effect between primary and fully-dilutive earnings per share is less
than 3% or is anti-dilutive for all periods presented and is therefore not
disclosed in the accompanying supplemental consolidated statements of
operations.

2. ACQUISITIONS
Since 1990, the Company has acquired several collection, transfer,
recycling, disposal, and soil remediation businesses. These acquisitions were
accounted for in accordance with the purchase or pooling of interests method of
accounting depending on the terms of each transaction as described below. The
most significant transaction has been the Company's acquisition of Chambers on
June 30, 1995 discussed below.
Chambers Development Company, Inc.
----------------------------------
On June 30, 1995, the Company completed its merger with Chambers and
approximately 27,800,000 shares of the Company's common stock were issued in
exchange for all outstanding shares of Chambers Common Stock and Class A Common
Stock. The acquisition has been accounted for as a pooling of interests, and,
accordingly, the accompanying supplemental consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Chambers for all periods presented.
Combined and separate results of operations of the Company and
Chambers are as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>
The following adjustments have been made to the combined results of
operations:
(a) All significant intercompany transactions between the Company and
Chambers have been eliminated. In September 1993, Chambers sold certain of its
collection and landfill operations to the Company and, as a result of such
sale, Chambers recorded a gain of approximately $13,600,000. The Company
accounted for the transaction as a purchase and allocated the purchase price to
the assets acquired. The gain recorded by Chambers in 1993 has been removed
for that year based on the assumption that the Company and Chambers had been
combined from their inception. In addition, the results for the years
18

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2. ACQUISITIONS, CONTINUED
ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 have been adjusted for the effect of lower
amortization as a result of the reduction in the asset amounts recorded.
(b) The combined results assume that the acquisition qualifies as a
"tax-free" reorganization for federal income tax purposes. As a result of the
acquisition, certain tax net operating loss carryforwards will become available
to offset future taxable income of the combined company. Chambers had not
recognized any benefit with respect to these tax net operating loss
carryforwards in prior years; however, the supplemental consolidated financial
statements recognize of these benefits to the extent previously recognized
deferred tax liabilities.
The Company expects to incur up to $25 million in estimated
nonrecurring costs related to the Merger which are expected to be incurred
within 12 months of the transaction date. These Merger related costs relate
primarily to transaction costs, severance and other termination benefits, and
nonrecurring costs relating to the integration of the operations of the
combined company.
Other Poolings of Interests
---------------------------
On May 27, 1994, the Company acquired Envirofil, Inc. ("Envirofil") in
a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. The Company acquired
all the common stock of Envirofil in exchange for approximately 9,700,000
shares of the Company's common stock. Accordingly, the Company has previously
restated its 1993 and 1992 consolidated financial statements to include
Envirofil from the beginning of each such year.
The results of operations for Envirofil for the periods prior to the
combination were as follows (in thousands):

have not been restated for the change in fiscal year of Envirofil. Costs
related to the acquisition of $3,782,000 were charged to expense in the quarter
in which the acquisition was consummated.
On September 30, 1993, the Company acquired Soil Remediation of
Philadelphia, Inc. ("SRI") in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of
interests. The Company acquired all the common stock of SRI in exchange for
800,000 shares of the Company's common stock and the assumption of
approximately $9,000,000 of SRI's indebtedness. SRI owns and operates a
thermal remediation facility in Pennsylvania. SRI commenced operations
in the fall of 1992, and the combined results of operations for the Company
including SRI for 1992 are not significantly different than excluding SRI's
results. Accordingly, the Company restated its consolidated balance sheet to
include SRI as of December 31, 1992, but the related statements of operations
and cash flows relating to prior periods were not restated. The results of
operations of SRI for the nine months prior to the combination are - operating
revenues $5,008,000; net income $1,110,000.
As of May 1, 1993, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common
stock of Custom Disposal Services, Inc., ("Custom") in exchange for 262,231
shares of its common stock. At the time of its acquisition, Custom was
controlled by affiliates of the Company. This transaction was accounted for in
a manner similar to a pooling of interests. The results of the combined
operations for the periods prior to the combination were not significantly
different than previously reported, and accordingly, were not restated for
prior periods. Effective September 30, 1994, the Company sold substantially
all of Custom's assets.
Purchases
---------
During 1994, the Company made several acquisitions that were accounted
for under the purchase method of accounting. Results of operations of
companies that were acquired and subject to purchase accounting are included
from the dates of acquisition. The total costs of acquisitions accounted for
under the purchase method were $49,033,000 in 1994.

2. ACQUISITIONS, CONTINUED
Of the 1994 purchases, the most significant transaction occurred on
February 28, 1994. The Company acquired businesses in New Jersey that provide
collection and recycling services to residential and commercial customers in
central New Jersey. The aggregate purchase price for the businesses acquired
consisted of approximately $15,930,000 in cash and 1,738,000 shares of
Envirofil common stock (347,600 shares of the Company's common stock).
The excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of net
assets acquired in 1994 acquisitions was approximately $23,957,000. The
purchase price allocations are subject to adjustment during the allocation
period as necessary when information becomes available to define and quantify
assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

3. DIVESTITURES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Divestitures
------------
In late 1992, Chambers initiated a program to divest certain
businesses that did not meet strategic and performance objectives and, in 1993
and 1994, completed a series of asset sales to various parties. During 1993,
Chambers sold a transfer station, five collection and hauling businesses and a
parcel of land for total proceeds of $20,669,000 in cash and received $996,000
with respect to a development project in California. These sales resulted in a
net gain of $7,101,000. Additionally, on December 31, 1993, Chambers sold its
two transfer stations in Morris County, New Jersey, to the Morris County
Municipal Utilities Authority ("MCMUA") for $9,500,000 in cash, which resulted
in a deferred gain of $3,950,000. Simultaneous with entering into the
agreement for the sale of these transfer stations, Chambers and the MCMUA
amended the agreement pursuant to which Chambers
21

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3. DIVESTITURES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, CONTINUED
operates the transfer stations and provides waste disposal services, reducing
the rates charged for such services in 1994. As a result of the
interrelationship of the sale of the transfer stations and the operating and
disposal service agreement, the gain on sale was deferred and recognized in
1994 as services were provided. As part of the agreement of sale, Chambers
will continue to operate the transfer stations and provide waste disposal
services until the county's long-term solid waste system is in operation or
December 31, 1996, if later.
During 1994, Chambers sold a recycling operation, a building and a
parcel of land for a total of $2,089,000 in cash. The losses incurred as a
result of these sales have been charged to the previously established allowance
for divestiture losses.
The following are summarized operating results of the businesses that
were sold during 1994 and 1993, included in the results of continuing
operations. These results exclude the two transfer stations in Morris County,
New Jersey, that the Company will continue to operate, and the net gain from
divestitures of $7,101,000 included in unusual items - operations for the year
ended December 31, 1993 (in thousands).

As a result of changes in Chambers' assessment of the marketability of
one of its operations intended for divestiture, in 1994 Chambers reclassified
$1,309,000 of assets for that operation, net of a related contract loss
reserve, from assets held of sale to their respective balance sheet
classifications. Additionally, assets of $1,226,000, related to undeveloped
land that is permitted for use as a transfer station, were reclassified to
assets held for sale. The remaining assets held for sale at December 31, 1994
include an undeveloped permitted landfill site and certain assets of a hauling
and transfer station operation discussed below.
In 1994, the Company wrote off certain assets, primarily related to
the Atlantic City, New Jersey transfer station and recycling operations,
against previously recorded divestiture loss reserves and recorded an
additional divestiture loss provision of $1,114,000 for the remaining assets
related to the transfer station and recycling operations, which the Company was
attempting to sell or lease. Operating losses for the Atlantic City operation
of $874,000, $857,000 and $690,000 for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993
and 1992, respectively, have been incurred and charged to the previously
established divestiture loss reserve. Subsequent to December 31, 1994, the
Company decided to retain the Atlantic City collection operations.

3. DIVESTITURES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, CONTINUED
Chambers had recorded a provision of $10,466,000 in 1992 for estimated
losses on the disposition of certain of its businesses (see Note 11). The
provision reflected the expected loss from the disposition of net assets,
anticipated operating losses from the measurement date through the expected
dates of disposal and estimated disposal costs. Approximately $2,299,000 in
operating losses incurred by these businesses during 1994 and 1993 and
$1,484,000 of losses on divestitures incurred in 1994 and 1993 have been
charged against the loss reserve. Approximately $3,689,000 was charged to the
loss reserve in 1994 and 1993 as a result of writing down assets to their net
realizable value. Accruals of $7,689,000, consisting principally of provisions
previously recorded for expected losses on the disposition of the businesses
subsequently retained, have been reversed and are included in unusual items in
1994 and 1993 (see Note 11).
In 1993, Chambers also recorded a provision of $3,194,000 for
estimated losses on the disposition of additional businesses classified as
assets held for sale and in 1994 and 1993 recorded provisions of $1,114,000 and
$2,321,000, respectively, for changes to estimates for losses related to the
remaining assets held for sale.

On December 11, 1992, Chambers sold substantially all of the assets of
its security services business to Baker Industries, Inc./BPS Guard Services,
Inc. for approximately $27,430,000, of which $22,930,000 was received at
closing with the balance received in 1993. Operating results of the security
services business for the nine months ended September 30, 1992, which have been
classified in the supplemental consolidated statements of operations as
discontinued operations, include operating revenues of $68,079,000 and a loss
from operations of $1,407,000.

3. DIVESTITURES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, CONTINUED
Effective June 30, 1991, Envirofil formally discontinued operations in
all non-landfill related businesses. As part of a December 1992 reorganization
(see Note 11), Envirofil sold the stock of its home medical equipment
operations holding company, Med-Care Corp., and its related subsidiaries for
$10 to the former Chairman, President and majority shareholder of Envirofil.
Although sold for a nominal amount, due to its net liability position on the
date of sale, Envirofil recorded a net gain of $897,000 on this sale. The
disposition of these companies completed Envirofil's plan to liquidate all
non-landfill related businesses and to concentrate on the acquisition,
development and operation of non-hazardous sanitary landfills. The Company
believes that Envirofil has settled or satisfied all claims and liabilities
with respect to such discontinued operations, however, there can be no
assurance that claims and liabilities arising out of or related to the home
medical equipment business will not be made against Envirofil and will not be
significant.

The aggregate estimated payments, including scheduled minimum
maturities, of long-term obligations outstanding at December 31, 1994 for the
five years ending December 31, 1995 through 1999 are: 1995-$46,795,000;
1996-$203,260,000; 1997-$104,900,000; 1998-$2,828,000; and 1999-$1,954,000.
On June 30, 1995, and in connection with the acquisition of Chambers,
the Company entered into a $550,000,000 credit agreement with three major banks
consisting of a $300,000,000 five-year revolving credit and letter of credit
facility and a $250,000,000 five-year term loan facility (the "Credit
Facility"). On that date, the Company arranged to borrow $370,000,000, the
proceeds of which were used to refinance outstanding indebtedness under the
Company's prior revolving credit facility, to repay the 11.45% and 11.95%
Senior Notes of Chambers, and to finance the Chambers' shareholder litigation
settlements discussed in Note 12 and certain other merger related costs. The
Credit Facility is collateralized by all capital stock of the Company's
subsidiaries, whether now owned or hereafter acquired and intercompany
receivables between the Company and its subsidiaries and between subsidiaries.

5. LONG-TERM DEBT, CONTINUED
Revolving credit loans under the Credit Facility are limited to
$160,000,000 less the amount of any future industrial revenue bonds enhanced or
secured by letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility. Loans bear
interest at a rate based on the Eurodollar Rate or the prime rate, plus a
margin ranging from zero to 1.75% depending on the leverage ratio of the
Company. The Company is also obligated to pay a letter of credit fee ranging
from .75% to 1.75% on outstanding letters of credit also depending on the
leverage ratio of the Company. A commitment fee ranging from .25% to .50% is
required on the unused portion of the Credit Facility.
Chambers is a party to a loan agreement with a major bank. At June
30, 1995, there were approximately $109,000,000 in letters of credit
outstanding under such agreement, which letters of credit were issued primarily
to collateralize industrial revenue bonds. A $112,000,000 letter of credit was
issued under the Company's Credit Facility to collateralize the outstanding
Chambers' letters of credit. The Company intends to replace all of the
Chambers' letters of credit with letters of credit issued under the Credit
Facility.
The Credit Facility contains financial covenants including minimum
consolidated net worth, funded debt levels, capital expenditures, and interest
and debt service coverage requirements. The Credit Facility also restricts the
incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens and the payment of dividends.
Upon refinancing of the 11.45% and 11.95% Senior Notes of Chambers,
the Company paid an early redemption premium (the "Premium") of approximately
$9,400,000 to the note holders based on the difference between the interest
rates on the Senior Notes and an adjusted rate for U.S. Treasury securities
having similar maturities.
At December 31, 1994, letters of credit have been provided to the
Company supporting industrial revenue bonds, performance of landfill closure
and post-closure requirements, insurance and other contracts. Letters of
credit outstanding at December 31, 1994 aggregated $116,777,000.
In September 1992, the Company issued $49,000,000 of 8-1/2%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due October 15, 2002 in an underwritten
public offering. Interest on the debentures is payable semi-annually. The
debentures are convertible into the Company's common stock at any time on or
before maturity, unless previously redeemed, at $13.25 per share, subject to
adjustment in certain events. The debentures are redeemable at the option of
the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on or after October 15, 1995, at
an original redemption price of 105.67% of the principal amount, declining to
par over the term of the debentures. The debentures are subordinated to all
existing and future indebtedness of the Company and do not restrict the
incurrence of additional senior debt.

the preferred stock in series; and with respect to each series, to fix its
designation, relative rights (including voting, dividend, conversion, sinking
fund and redemption rights), preferences (including with respect to dividends
and upon liquidation) and limitations. The Company currently has no issued or
outstanding preferred stock.
7. COMMON STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
Options
-------
In 1990, the Company's shareholders adopted the 1990 Stock Option Plan
(the "1990 Plan"). A total of 900,000 shares may be issued under the Plan. In
1993, the Company adopted the 1993 Stock Option Incentive Plan (the "1993
Plan") which allows the Company to grant options for up to 4,000,000 shares of
the Company's common stock to officers, directors and key employees. Stock
options have been granted under the 1990 and 1993 Plans at an exercise price
which equals or exceeds the fair market value of the common stock on the date
of grant. No options are available for future grant under the 1990 Plan.
In March 1993, the stockholders of Envirofil approved the adoption of
the Envirofil Employees' 1993 Stock Option Plan (the "1993 Envirofil Plan").
Under the 1993 Envirofil Plan, options may be granted to purchase up to an
aggregate of 600,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The 1993 Envirofil
Plan will terminate in January 2003. Under the terms of the 1993 Envirofil
Plan, options were permitted to be granted at an exercise price per share not
less than the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. On
May 27, 1994, Envirofil had outstanding options to purchase 443,182 shares
under the 1993 Envirofil Plan. No additional options may be issued under such
plan.
Chambers had two plans under which stock options for the purchase of
its Class A Common Stock could be granted: the 1993 Stock Incentive Plan (the
"1993 Chambers Plan") and the 1991 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors
(the "Chambers Directors' Plan").
The maximum number of shares of Chambers Class A Common stock
available for grant under the 1993 Chambers Plan in each calendar year was
equal to one percent of the total number of outstanding shares of Chambers
Class A Common Stock as of the beginning of the year, plus any shares then
reserved but not subject to grant under Chambers' terminated 1988 Stock Option
Plan (the "1988 Chambers Plan"). Any unused shares available for grant in any
calendar year were carried forward and available for award in

succeeding calendar years. Under the terms of the 1993 Chambers Plan, the
exercise price of stock options granted could not be more or less than the fair
market value of the stock on the date of grant, but in no event may it be less
than the par value of the stock.
The Chambers Directors' Plan provided for the granting of options for
the purchase of a maximum of 150,000 shares of Chambers Class A Common Stock.
Under the Chambers Directors' Plan, each person serving as a director and who
was not employed by Chambers was automatically granted options for the purchase
of 2,000 shares of Chambers Class A Common Stock on the third business day
following each annual stockholders' meeting. In addition, each nonemployee
director at the effective date of the plan was granted options to purchase
2,000 shares of Chambers Class A Common Stock for each year previously served
on Chambers' Board of Directors.
As a result of the merger of Chambers with the Company, all unexpired
and unexercised options under the 1993 Chambers Plan, the 1988 Chambers Plan
and the Chambers Directors' Plan converted to options to purchase shares of the
Company's common stock and became fully vested and exercisable. No additional
options may be issued under such plans.
The following table summarizes activity under all of the above stock
option plans (in thousands):

Stock Compensation Expense
--------------------------
In 1992 and 1993, Envirofil granted certain options and warrants with
exercise prices that were less than the fair market value of Envirofil's common
stock at the date of the grant of the options or warrants or the renegotiation
of the exercise price of warrants previously granted. Stock compensation
expense has been recorded to the extent that the exercise prices of the vested
options or warrants were less than the fair market value of Envirofil's
common stock at the date of the renegotiation of the exercise price reduction
or the granting of the options or warrants. As a result, charges of $5,249,000
and $923,000 were recorded as stock compensation expense in the supplemental
consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 1992 and
1993, respectively. The offset to these charges was an increase in additional
paid-in capital.

tax net operating loss carryforwards, which expire in 1998.
The Company intends to utilize the tax net operating loss
carryforwards to offset future income for tax purposes. The Company believes
that there will be no "ownership change" within the meaning of the Section 382
of the Internal Revenue Code in connection with the Merger; however, there can
be no assurance in this matter. If an ownership change is deemed to have
occurred in connection with the Merger, or in the future, the utilization of the

During 1994, 1993 and 1992, there were no individual customers that

10. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following disclosures of the fair value of financial instruments
are presented in accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial
Instruments." The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the
Company using available market data and valuation methodologies.
The book values of cash, restricted funds held by trustees, trade
accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and financial instruments included
in notes and other receivables and other assets approximate their fair values
principally because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The
following methods and assumptions have been used by the Company to estimate the
fair value of other financial instruments.
Long-Term Debt
--------------
The fair value of the Company's debt maturing within one year and the
revolving credit facility approximates the carrying amount due to the nature of
the instruments involved.
The estimated fair value of the 8 1/2% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures due 2002 is based on their quoted market value.
The fair value of the 11.45% and 11.95% Senior Notes approximates the
carrying amount for obligations of similar risk and duration. The interest
rates on these notes were established in December 1992 and remained unchanged
when the amendments to the agreements were executed in July 1993. Interest and
periodic fees on these notes were increased in November 1994.
The fair value of the industrial revenue bonds approximates the
carrying amount as the interest rates on the bonds are reset weekly based on
the credit quality of the letters of credit which collateralize the bonds.

<PAGE> 33
USA WASTE SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
10. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, CONTINUED
The fair value of the noninterest bearing notes approximates the
carrying amount which represents the discounted value of the notes using an
interest rate considered market for a borrowing of similar credit quality and
maturity.
The fair value of other notes payable and equipment loans, excluding
capital leases, is estimated by discounting future cash flows using an interest
rate considered market for borrowings of similar credit quality and maturity.
The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's
long-term debt (including current maturities) are as follows (in thousands):

In the normal course of business, the Company has letters of credit,
performance bonds, and other guarantees that are not reflected in the
accompanying supplemental consolidated balance sheets. In the past, no
significant claims have been made against these financial instruments. Letters
of credit outstanding at December 31, 1994 aggregated $116,777,000. Management
believes that the likelihood of performance under these financial instruments
is minimal and expects no material losses to occur in connection with these
financial instruments.
11. UNUSUAL ITEMS
Chambers Restructuring
----------------------
In 1992, Chambers became a defendant in shareholder litigation arising
out of financial statement revisions (see Note 12) and, as a result of
noncompliance with certain covenants of its various long-term borrowing
agreements, commenced restructuring of its principal credit facilities and
surety arrangements. Chambers also initiated a major restructuring of its
operations which included a program to divest certain businesses that no longer
met strategic and performance objectives, the abandonment of various
development activities and the reorganization of its corporate and regional
operations. In 1994, 1993 and 1992, Chambers incurred substantial costs related
to these matters.
33

USA WASTE SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
11. UNUSUAL ITEMS, CONTINUED
In 1994, Chambers recorded charges of $3,366,000 for losses on asset
divestitures including $1,114,000 to adjust a prior year estimate of the loss
on divestiture of a hauling, recycling and transfer station operation, and
$2,252,000 related to the estimated future loss on a municipal contract.
Effective March 1, 1994, Chambers was awarded a three-year contract for the
transportation and disposal of municipal solid waste with, at the customer's
option, two one-year extension periods beyond February 28, 1997. The costs of
operating the contract have been greater than originally estimated and, since
inception, the contract been generating an operating loss. Operational changes
and improvements implemented during 1994 did not sufficiently reduce operating
costs. As a result, Chambers estimated it will incur operating losses of
$2,252,000 through the remaining two-year term of the contract, and the two
one-year extension periods, in order to satisfy the service requirements of the
contract and accordingly has accrued such amount. In 1994, Chambers also
reversed prior year provisions for losses on divestitures and contractual
commitments of $3,565,000, including $2,000,000 previously recorded for losses
expected to be incurred on a municipal contract with respect to which Chambers
was able to negotiate an early termination and $1,053,000 of excess reserve
related to the sale in 1994 of a recycling operation and certain real estate.
In addition, in 1994 Chambers recorded net charges of $8,237,000 for
asset impairments and abandoned projects. That amount included a fourth
quarter charge of $6,978,000 to reduce the carrying value, as of December 31,
1994, of Chambers' medical, special and municipal waste incinerator facility to
its estimated net realizable value. The amount of the charge was measured as
the difference between the carrying value of long-term assets, principally
property and equipment and intangible assets, and the estimated fair value of
the assets based on the present value of future cash flows discounted at 12%.
The adjustment was based on a review conducted in the fourth quarter which
determined there had been a permanent decline in the value of the facility
based on the conclusion that Chambers could not recover its investment through
future operations, given current and forecasted pricing, waste mix and capacity
trends as well as recently proposed regulations with respect to medical waste
incinerator facilities and general declines in the value of waste incinerator
businesses. During 1994, Chambers also reached a favorable settlement of
previously reported litigation related to certain contracts entered into with
respect to the purchase by Chambers of a landfill and the prior purchase of a
waste collection and hauling company. The settlement amount is included as a
credit to unusual items and includes receipt by Chambers of $1,200,000 in
cash and the forgiveness of all remaining non-compete payments totalling
$525,000 that were to have been paid by Chambers to various individuals in
1994, 1995 and 1996. The remaining charge of $2,984,000 results from changes in
prior year estimates for certain asset impairments and abandoned projects. In
addition, Chambers recorded a charge of $825,000 primarily relating
to severance benefits paid to

employees terminated as part of Chambers' continued reorganization. With the
exception of the $1,200,000 litigation settlement received by Chambers and the
$825,000 payment of severance benefits, there was no cash flow effect to these
unusual charges.
During 1993, Chambers sold certain businesses as part of its
divestiture program, which resulted in a net gain of $7,101,000. Chambers also
recorded charges of $8,687,000 for losses on asset divestitures and contractual
commitments including (i) $3,172,000 related to the municipal contract
discussed above, (ii) $3,194,000 related to the recycling operation and real
estate sold in 1994 and (iii) $2,140,000 related to a hauling, recycling and
transfer station held for sale. In addition, Chambers reversed prior year
provisions of $6,636,000 for losses on divestitures for businesses that were
subsequently retained.
In 1993, Chambers also recorded charges of $4,929,000, consisting of
$2,028,000 for impaired assets and $2,901,000 for abandoned projects.
Additionally, there were charges in 1993 of $1,555,000 for special directors
and officers insurance premiums and $315,000 for severance benefits paid to
employees terminated in connection with the corporate and regional
restructuring.
In 1992, Chambers recorded a charge of $10,525,000 for anticipated
losses on planned asset divestitures and contractual commitments and recorded a
charge of $12,425,000 for asset impairments and abandoned projects. There was
no cash flow effect for these unusual charges.
In addition, Chambers recorded charges of $10,388,000 in 1992 for
financing and professional fees primarily related to the restructuring of its
principal credit facilities and surety arrangements. Chambers also recorded a
charge of $7,134,000 for special directors and officers insurance premiums as a
result of the shareholder litigation and charges of $3,819,000 related to the
reorganization of its corporate and regional operations. The latter charges
were for employee severance, relocation and related transition costs, costs to
close certain facilities and other related costs.

Envirofil Reorganization
------------------------
In December 1992, Envirofil completed a financial and management
reorganization that effectively recapitalized Envirofil and provided it with a
new management team. The reorganization included the following items:
. Envirofil completed a private placement of its common stock
raising net proceeds of $3,388,000 from the sale of 16,000,000
shares of Envirofil common stock.
. Envirofil converted $10,000,000 of Convertible Subordinated
Notes and $750,000 of Convertible Subordinated Bridge Notes
together with accrued interest into 7,188,956 shares of common
stock of Envirofil at a conversion rate of $1.60 per share. In
addition, 521,644 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, Series
B were converted into 332,638 shares of common stock of the
Company at a conversion rate of $1.60 per share. The difference
between the face value of these obligations and the fair market
value of the common stock issued, net of applicable deferred
financing costs, plus the debt forgiven by certain of
Envirofil's vendors, was recorded as extraordinary income in
1992 in the amount of $10,066,000.
As part of the December 1992 reorganization, Envirofil had
restructuring charges of $1,507,000. The restructuring costs primarily related
to the granting of warrants with exercise prices less than the fair market
value of Envirofil common stock at the date of the grant or the renegotiation
of the exercise price of warrants previously granted.
In 1993 and 1992, Envirofil granted certain options and warrants with
exercise prices that were less than the fair market value of Envirofil's common
stock at the date of the grant of the options or warrants or the renegotiation
of the exercise price of warrants previously granted. Stock compensation
expense has been recorded to the extent that the exercise prices of the vested
options or warrants were less than the fair market value of Envirofil's common
stock at the date of the renegotiation of the exercise price or the granting of
the options or warrants. As a result, charges of $923,000 and $5,249,000 were
recorded as stock compensation expense in the supplemental consolidated
statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992,
respectively. The offset to these charges was an increase in additional
paid-in capital.

12. SETTLEMENT OF SHAREHOLDER LITIGATION
Between March 18, 1992 and May 7, 1992, various Chambers' shareholders
filed twenty-three actions in the United States District Court for the Western
District of Pennsylvania asserting federal securities fraud claims and pendent
state law claims against Chambers, certain of its officers and directors, its
auditors prior to 1992, and the underwriters of its securities (the "Federal
Class Action"). The significant part of these actions, as amended and
consolidated on November 4, 1992, under the caption IN RE: CHAMBERS DEVELOPMENT
COMPANY, INC. SHAREHOLDERS LITIGATION, Civil Action No. 92-0679, and brought on
behalf of a putative class of purchasers of Chambers' securities between March
18, 1988 and October 20, 1992, is the allegation that the decrease in Chambers'
stock price during the period from Chambers' March 17, 1992 announcements of a
change in accounting method relating to capitalization of certain costs and
expenses through its

12. SETTLEMENT OF SHAREHOLDER LITIGATION, CONTINUED
October 20, 1992 announcement of a $362,000,000 reduction in retained earnings
as of December 31, 1991, as compared to the amount previously reported and a
restatement of its 1990 and 1989 consolidated financial statements, was caused
by Chambers' misrepresentation of its earnings and financial condition. One
of the original twenty-three complaints, YEAGER V. RANGOS, ET AL., C.A. No.
92-1081, also asserts derivative claims on behalf of Chambers (which is named
as a nominal defendant) for breach of fiduciary duty against certain of its
officers and directors and negligence against its auditors prior to 1992 (the
"Federal Derivative Action"). Derivative claims were also filed in state
courts on behalf of Chambers (which was named as a nominal defendant) for
breach of fiduciary duty against certain of its officers and directors and for
negligence against Chambers' independent auditors prior to 1992 (the "Related
Actions").
On February 24, 1995, representatives of the plaintiffs in the Federal
Class Action, representatives of the plaintiffs in the Federal Derivative
Action, Chambers and certain individual defendants entered into a Class Action
Stipulation and Agreement of Compromise and Settlement (the "Class Action
Settlement Agreement") and a Derivative Action Stipulation and Agreement of
Compromise and Settlement (the "Derivative Action Settlement Agreement" and,
together with the Class Action Settlement Agreement, the "Settlement
Agreements"), which are the definitive settlement documents for the class
actions and the derivative actions described above. After Chambers entered
into the Settlement Agreements, the class and derivative plaintiffs entered
into settlements with Chambers' independent auditors prior to 1992. Chambers
then entered into an agreement with the class plaintiffs to settle their claims
against a group of underwriters of certain of Chambers' securities offerings.
Chambers agreed to pay $300,000 to the class plaintiffs to resolve these claims
for which the underwriters sought indemnity from Chambers. Pursuant to the
Settlement Agreements, the defendants paid a total of approximately $97,000,000
on or before July 11, 1995. Of this amount, the sum of $10,000,000 was paid
from funds received from Chambers' directors and officers liability insurance
carrier and $75,900,000 was paid by the Company as of July 11, 1995 including
the $300,000 paid on behalf of the underwriters.
Chambers had accrued $85,300,000 for the cost of the settlements and
$4,100,000 for other litigation related costs in 1994. Of that total,
$79,400,000 was recorded as a charge to unusual items as a component of other
income (expense) and $10,000,000 to be paid from the proceeds of Chambers'
directors and officers liability insurance policy was recorded as a current
asset and is included in accounts receivable-other at December 31, 1994. At
December 31, 1994, $75,300,000 of the amount accrued for settlement payments
has been classified as a noncurrent liability based on the expectation that
such amount would be funded by long-term financing in connection with the
Merger (see Note 5). The $10,000,000

of settlement payments funded by the proceeds of Chambers' directors and
officers liability insurance policy and the $4,100,000 of other litigation
related costs are included in current liabilities at December 31, 1994.
In connection to the Federal Class Action, certain potential class
members, requested exclusion from the Class Action Settlement Agreement. These
potential class members have asserted that they have incurred losses
attributable to shares purchased during the class period and certain
additional losses by reason of alleged management misstatements during and
after the class period. Management of the Company believes that the ultimate
resolution of such claims, would not have a material adverse effect on the
financial position and results of operations of the Company.
Pursuant to the terms of the Derivative Action Settlement Agreement,
in July 1995 the Company took title to the headquarters property formerly
leased by Chambers from Synergy Associates (See Note 13), a company owned by
Chambers' former principal shareholders, subject to its mortgage loan. The
Company intends to sell this property.
13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has invested $400,000 in EDM Corporation ("EDM"), in
return for a 15% equity interest and agreed to provide a line of credit of up
to $5,600,000 to EDM at an interest rate equal to the greater of 8-1/2% or the
prime rate plus two percent. The Company has a right of first refusal to
acquire any landfills, collection or other operations that EDM wishes to sell.
In February 1993, the Company purchase a 19% equity interest in WPP,
Inc., an Ohio corporation ("WPP"), for $190,000. WPP was engaged in the
development of landfill projects and provided consulting, engineering, and
permit acquisition services in connection with the development of landfills.
On March 30, 1994, the Company purchased the remaining 81% of the outstanding
capital stock of WPP from an unrelated party for $810,000. Following its
acquisition of WPP, the Company sold WPP's landfill development projects to
third parties.
In June 1993, Donald F. Moorehead, Jr., Chairman of the Board of the
Company, acquired an approximate 5% ownership interest in EMCO Metals &
Recycling Corporation ("EMCO"), a company engaged in scrap metal recycling in
Phoenix. In October 1993, the Company acquired certain trucks from EMCO for
$191,000 and entered into a three-year service agreement to transport scrap
metal for EMCO. Contemporaneously, the Company acquired certain trucks,
trailers and roll-off containers used in the collection and
39

13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS, CONTINUED
transportation of scrap metal from an unaffiliated entity for $998,000. In
connection with its decision to leave the Phoenix market in October 1994, the
Company sold the aforementioned vehicles and containers to EMCO for $100,000 in
cash and a note for $895,000 bearing interest at a rate of 9% per annum and
payable in eleven monthly installments of principal and interest of $18,567 and
a balloon payment of $765,083.
In connection with the acquisition of Envirofil in May 1994, Sanders
Morris Mundy Inc. ("SMMI") in its capacity as financial advisor to Envirofil
received a fee of $850,000. Prior to joining the Company, John E. Drury, Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, was a Managing Director and shareholder of
SMMI and remains a director. George L. Ball, a director of the Company, is
Chairman of the Board and a director of SMMI. In 1992, the Company sold
$46,000,000 of its 8-1/2% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2002 in a
public offering underwritten by Dillon Read & Co., Inc. and SMMI. In
connection with such offering, the Company paid the underwriters commissions
aggregating $1,995,000.
At December 31, 1994, Chambers' headquarters facility was leased from
the principal stockholders of Chambers under a lease dated December 29, 1986
with an initial term expiring in October 2006 and which has a ten-year renewal
option. The agreement provides for aggregate lease payments of $1,012,000
during 1995, payable monthly, and for rental increases based on increases in
taxes and other costs. The rent may be adjusted upward for increases in certain
costs of the lessor on an annual basis. As of December 31, 1994, future minimum
payments for the initial term of the lease based on the aforementioned annual
lease obligation were $11,140,000, including $918,000 representing interest and
$8,026,000 representing executory costs.
Subsequent to the date of the Merger, the Company exercised an option
to purchase real estate from John G. Rangos, Sr., a principal stockholder of
Chambers and a director of the Company, and Michael J. Peretto, a former
director of Chambers, and certain members of his family. The real estate is
adjacent to the Company's Monroeville landfill. The options to purchase the
real estate were granted pursuant to agreements among the parties dated July 8,
1993. The total consideration paid by the Company for the real estate was
$2,986,118, of which $2,103,585 was paid to John G. Rangos, Sr., and $882,532
was paid to Mr. Peretto and members of his family.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating Leases
----------------
The Company has entered into certain noncancelable operating
leases for vehicles, equipment, offices and other facilities which expire
through 2012. Lease expense aggregated $8,046,000, $11,164,000 and
$12,160,000 during 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Future minimum lease
payments under operating leases in effect at December 31, 1994 are 1995 -
$4,454,000; 1996 - $2,793,000; 1997 - $1,481,000; 1998 - $543,000; 1999 -
$199,000; and thereafter $1,398,000.
Environmental Matters
---------------------
The Company is subject to extensive and evolving federal, state and
local environmental laws and regulations that have been enacted in response to
technological advances and the public's increased concern over environmental
issues. As a result of changing governmental attitudes in this area,
management anticipates that the Company will continually modify or replace
facilities and alter methods of operation. The majority of the expenditures
necessary to comply with the environmental laws and regulations are made in the
normal course of business. Although the Company, to the best of its knowledge,
is in compliance in all material respects with the laws and regulations
affecting its operations, there is no assurance that the Company will not have
to expend substantial amounts for compliance in the future.
Litigation and Investigations
-----------------------------
Shortly after Chambers' March 17, 1992 announcement of a change in
accounting policies concerning capitalization, the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") initiated an informal investigation with respect
to Chambers' accounting method and the accuracy of its financial statements and
into the possibility that persons or entities had traded in Chambers'
securities on the basis of inside information prior to the announcement. On
September 30, 1992, a formal order of investigation was issued by the
Commission with respect to potential violations by Chambers and others of
sections 10(b), 13(a) and 13(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
("Exchange Act") and various rules promulgated thereunder.
On May 9, 1995, the Commission filed a complaint against Chambers in
the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania
alleging that Chambers violated the antifraud provisions of the Securities Act
of 1933 ("Securities Act") and the antifraud, reporting, internal controls and
recordkeeping provisions of the Exchange Act by issuing false and misleading
earnings announcements from 1989 through March 1992 and including false and
misleading financial statements in its reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q

and its registration statements filed from 1989 through November 1991.
Chambers simultaneously consented, without admitting or denying the
Commission's allegations, to the entry of an order enjoining it from violating
certain provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and requiring it
to pay a civil penalty of $500,000. The $500,000 was accrued as of December
31, 1994 and has been subsequently paid.
On May 9, 1995, the Commission also instituted administrative
proceedings under section 21C of the Exchange Act against four then current and
former officers of Chambers. The Commission found, among other things, that
two then former officers each were a cause of Chambers' violations of the
reporting, internal controls and recordkeeping provisions of the Exchange Act.
Each of these four persons consented to the issuance of a cease and desist
order without admitting or denying the Commission's findings.
The American Stock Exchange and the Chicago Board of Options Exchange
are conducting investigations into trading activity on their respective
exchanges in Chambers' securities and in put options on Chambers' securities
prior to the March 17, 1992 announcement. On December 4, 1992, Chambers was
served with a grand jury subpoena out of the United States District Court for
the Eastern District of New York seeking production of public filings and
reports disseminated to its shareholders, documents referring to the
preparation of its financial statements and other materials. Chambers has
responded to the subpoena by producing documents. The grand jury investigation
is ongoing and it appears to be focusing on issues similar to those raised by
the civil litigation discussed in Note 12 and the Commission's investigation
described above. The Company is cooperating with each of the investigations.
Insurance
---------
The Company self-insures certain of its comprehensive general
liability and workers compensation risks, while maintaining third-party
coverage to protect against catastrophic loss, except for losses arising from
pollution and environmental liabilities which are self-insured. The Company
has not incurred significant fines, penalties or liabilities for pollution or
environmental liabilities at any of its facilities; however, the Company's
operating results could be adversely affected in the future in the event of
uninsured losses.
42
<PAGE> 43
USA WASTE SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, CONTINUED
The Company has obtained environmental impairment liability insurance
covering certain of its disposal sites and transfer stations. The Company is
in the process of securing coverage for those operations not yet insured.
However, if the Company should decide to operate without insurance, or should
it be unable to obtain adequate insurance in the future, a partially or
completely uninsured claim against the Company, if successful and of sufficient
magnitude, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or
its financial condition and results of operations.
Employment Agreements
---------------------
The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain of its
executives and officers. These employment agreements include provisions
governing compensation and benefits to be paid upon termination of employment
with the Company or certain changes in control of the Company. Under certain
conditions, the agreements can be terminated by the Company or the employee.
Upon termination of the agreement, the employee's compensation would continue
at approximately 75% of the employee's prior compensation for periods ranging
from three to five years. During the three to five year period the employee
would be available to the Company on a part-time basis for consulting and also
would not be permitted to engage in any activities in direct competition with
the Company. If these executives were to be terminated without cause during
1995 or if certain executives elected to terminate their agreements, the
aggregate annual compensation on a part-time basis would be approximately
$1,300,000. If a change in control were to occur in 1995 and the executives
were to elect to take the change in control payments, they would receive
approximately $4,300,000. As of December 31, 1994, the Company has not
recorded any accruals in the financial statements related to these employment
agreements.
Other Commitments and Litigation
--------------------------------
The Company has entered into certain agreements with EDM and certain
other parties in which the Company has committed to advance or invest up to
approximately $20,000,000 for purchase commitments, investment obligations and
loans. Certain of these commitments are dependent upon the fulfillment of
certain conditions by the other party prior to the Company's outlay of funds.
These commitments, if ultimately fulfilled, are expected to occur over a period
of one to five years. The total amount invested and advanced under these
agreements amounted to $3,400,000 as of December 31, 1994.
The Company is a party to other litigation arising in the normal
course of business. In addition, contingencies of an environmental nature
currently exist at certain of its disposal sites. Management believes that the
ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial position and results of operations.

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The supplemental condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31,
1995 and December 31, 1994, and the related supplemental condensed
consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995
and 1994, stockholders' equity for the three months ended March 31, 1995, and
cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 are unaudited.
In the opinion of management, such supplemental condensed financial statements
include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations
and cash flows for the periods presented. The Company has restated the
previously issued financial statements for the three months ended March 31,
1994 to reflect the acquisition of Envirofil, Inc. ("Envirofil") consummated
May 27, 1994, and the previously issued financial statements for the three
months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 to reflect the acquisition of Chambers
Development Company, Inc. ("Chambers"), both accounted for using the pooling of
interests method of accounting.
1. CHAMBERS ACQUISITION
On June 30, 1995, the Company completed its merger with Chambers and
approximately 27,800,000 shares of the Company's common stock were issued in
exchange for all outstanding shares of Chambers Common Stock and Class A Common
Stock. The acquisition has been accounted for as a pooling of interests, and
accordingly, the accompanying supplemental condensed consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Chambers for all periods presented.
Combined and separate results of operations of the Company and Chambers are as
follows (in thousands):

1. CHAMBERS ACQUISITION, CONTINUED
The following adjustments have been made to the combined results of
operations:
(a) All significant intercompany transactions between the Company and
Chambers have been eliminated. In September 1993, Chambers sold certain of its
collection and landfill operations to the Company. The Company accounted for
the transaction as a purchase and allocated the purchase price to the assets
acquired. The results for the period ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 have been
adjusted for the effect of lower amortization as a result of the reduction in
the asset amounts based on the assumption that the Company and Chambers had
been combined from their inception.
(b) The combined results assume that the acquisition qualifies as a
"tax-free" reorganization for federal income tax purposes. As a result of the
acquisition, certain tax net operating loss carryforwards will become available
to offset future taxable income of the combined company. Chambers had not
recognized any benefit with respect to these tax net operating loss
carryforwards in prior years, however, the supplemental condensed consolidated
financial statements recognize these benefits to the extent of previously
recognized deferred tax liabilities.

2. LONG-TERM DEBT, CONTINUED
On June 30, 1995, and in connection with the acquisition of Chambers,
the Company entered into a $550,000,000 credit agreement with three major banks
consisting of a $300,000,000 five-year revolving credit and letter of credit
facility and a $250,000,000 five-year term loan facility (the "Credit
Facility"). On that date, the Company arranged to borrow $370,000,000, the
proceeds of which were used to refinance outstanding indebtedness under the
Company's prior revolving credit facility, to repay the 11.45% and 11.95%
Senior Notes of Chambers, and to finance the Chambers' shareholder litigation
settlements discussed in Note 4 and certain other merger related costs. The
Credit Facility is collateralized by all capital stock of the Company's
subsidiaries, whether now owned or hereafter acquired and intercompany
receivables between the Company and its subsidiaries and between subsidiaries.
Revolving credit loans under the Credit Facility are limited to
$160,000,000 less the amount of any future industrial revenue bonds enhanced or
secured by letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility. Loans bear
interest at a rate based on the Eurodollar Rate or the prime rate, plus a
margin ranging from zero to 1.75% depending on the leverage ratio of the
Company. The Company is also obligated to pay a letter of credit fee ranging
from .75% to 1.75% on outstanding letters of credit also depending on the
leverage ratio of the Company. A commitment fee ranging from .25% to .50% is
required on the unused portion of the Credit Facility.
Chambers is a party to a loan agreement with a major bank. At June
30, 1995, there were approximately $109,000,000 in letters of credit
outstanding under such agreement, which letters of credit were issued primarily
to collateralize industrial revenue bonds. A $112,000,000 letter of credit was
issued under the Company's Credit Facility to collateralize the outstanding
Chambers' letters of credit. The Company intends to replace all of the
Chambers' letters of credit with letters of credit issued under the Credit
Facility.
The Credit Facility contains financial covenants including minimum
consolidated net worth, funded debt levels, capital expenditures, and interest
and debt service coverage requirements. The Credit Facility also restricts the
incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens and the payment of dividends.
Upon refinancing of the 11.45% and 11.95% Senior Notes of Chambers,
the Company paid an early redemption premium (the "Premium") of approximately
$9,400,000 to the note holders based on the difference between the interest
rates on the Senior Notes and an adjusted rate for U.S. Treasury securities
having similar maturities.
At December 31, 1994, letters of credit have been provided to the
Company supporting industrial revenue bonds, performance of landfill closure
and post-closure requirements, insurance and other contracts. Letters of
credit outstanding at December 31, 1994 aggregated $116,777,000.
In September 1992, the Company issued $49,000,000 of 8-1/2%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due October 15, 2002 in an underwritten
public offering. Interest on the debentures is payable semi-annually. The
debentures are convertible into the Company's common stock at any time on or
before maturity, unless previously redeemed, at $13.25 per share, subject to
adjustment in certain events. The debentures are redeemable at the option of
the Company, in whole or in part, at any time on or after October 15, 1995, at
an original redemption price of 105.67% of the principal amount, declining to
par over the term of the debentures. The debentures are subordinated to all
existing and future indebtedness of the Company and do not restrict the
incurrence of additional senior debt.
3. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE
As of January 1, 1995, the Company changed the useful life of the
excess of cost over net assets of acquired businesses from 25 years to 40 years
to more appropriately reflect the estimated period during which the benefit of
the assets will be realized. This change in accounting estimate had the effect
of reducing amortization charged to costs and expenses by approximately
$360,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995.

4. SETTLEMENT OF SHAREHOLDER LITIGATION
Between March 18, 1992 and May 7, 1992, various Chambers' shareholders
filed twenty-three actions in the United States District Court for the Western
District of Pennsylvania asserting federal securities fraud claims and pendent
state law claims against Chambers, certain of its officers and directors, its
auditors prior to 1992, and the underwriters of its securities (the "Federal
Class Action"). The significant part of these actions, as amended and
consolidated on November 4, 1992, under the caption IN RE: CHAMBERS DEVELOPMENT
COMPANY, INC. SHAREHOLDERS LITIGATION, Civil Action No. 92-0679, and brought on
behalf of a putative class of purchasers of Chambers' securities between March
18, 1988 and October 20, 1992, is the allegation that the decrease in Chambers'
stock price during the period from Chambers' March 17, 1992 announcements of a
change in accounting method relating to capitalization of certain costs and
expenses through its October 20, 1992 announcement of a $362,000,000 reduction
in retained earnings as of December 31, 1991, as compared to the amount
previously reported, and a restatement of its 1990 and 1989 consolidated
financial statements, was caused by Chambers' misrepresentation of its earnings
and financial condition. One of the original twenty-three complaints, YEAGER
V. RANGOS, ET AL., C.A. No. 92-1081, also asserts derivative claims on behalf
of Chambers (which is named as a nominal defendant) for breach of fiduciary
duty against certain of its officers and directors and negligence against its
auditors prior to 1992 (the "Federal Derivative Action"). Derivative claims
were also filed in state courts on behalf of Chambers (which was named as a
nominal defendant) for breach of fiduciary duty against certain of its officers
and directors and for negligence against Chambers independent auditors prior to
1992 (the "Related Actions").
On February 24, 1995, representatives of the plaintiffs in the Federal
Class Action, representatives of the plaintiffs in the Federal Derivative
Action, Chambers and certain individual defendants entered into a Class Action
Stipulation and Agreement of Compromise and Settlement (the "Class Action
Settlement Agreement") and a Derivative Action Stipulation and Agreement of
Compromise and Settlement (the "Derivative Action Settlement Agreement" and,
together with the Class Action Settlement Agreement, the "Settlement
Agreements"), which are the definitive settlement documents for the class
actions and the derivative actions described above. After Chambers entered
into the Settlement Agreements, the class and derivative plaintiffs entered
into settlements with Chambers' independent auditors prior to 1992. Chambers
then entered into an agreement with the class plaintiffs to settle their claims
against a group of underwriters of certain of Chambers' securities offerings.
Chambers agreed to pay $300,000 to the class plaintiffs to resolve these claims
for which the underwriters sought indemnity from Chambers. Pursuant to the
Settlement Agreements, the defendants paid a total of approximately $97,000,000
on or before July 11, 1995. Of this amount, the sum of $10,000,000 was paid
from funds received from Chambers' directors and officers liability insurance
carrier and $75,900,000 was paid by the Company as of July 11, 1995 including
the $300,000 paid on behalf of the underwriters.

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
4. SETTLEMENT OF SHAREHOLDER LITIGATION, CONTINUED
Chambers had accrued $85,300,000 for the cost of the settlements and
$4,100,000 for other litigation related costs in 1994. Of that total,
$79,400,000 was recorded as a charge to unusual items as a component of other
income (expense) and $10,000,000 to be paid from the proceeds of Chambers'
directors and officers liability insurance policy was recorded as a current
asset and is included in accounts receivable-other at March 31, 1995. At
December 31, 1994, $75,300,000 of the amount accrued for settlement payments
has been classified as a noncurrent liability based on the expectation that
such amount would be funded by long-term financing in connection with the
Merger (see Note 2). The $10,000,000 of settlement payments funded by the
proceeds of Chambers' directors and officers liability insurance policy and the
$4,100,000 of other litigation related costs are included in current
liabilities at March 31, 1995.
In connection to the Federal Class Action, certain potential class
members requested exclusion from the Class Action Settlement Agreement. These
potential class members have asserted that they have incurred losses
attributable to shares purchased during the class period and certain
additional losses by reason of alleged management misstatements during and
after the class period. Management of the Company believes that the
ultimate resolution of such claims, if filed, would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations
of the Company.
Pursuant to the terms of the Derivative Action Settlement Agreement,
in July 1995 the Company took title to the headquarters property formerly leased
by Chambers from Synergy Associates, a company owned by Chambers' former
principal shareholders, subject to its mortgage loan. The Company intends to
sell this property.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Environmental Matters
---------------------
The Company is subject to extensive and evolving federal, state and
local environmental laws and regulations that have been enacted in response to
technological advances and the public's increased concern over environmental
issues. As a result of changing governmental attitudes in this area,
management anticipates that the Company will continually modify or replace
facilities and alter methods of operation. The majority of the expenditures
necessary to comply with the environmental laws and regulations are made in the
normal course of business. Although the Company, to the best of its knowledge,
is in compliance in all material respects with the laws and regulations
affecting its operations, there is no assurance that the Company will not have
to expend substantial amounts for compliance in the future.
Litigation and Investigations
-----------------------------
Shortly after Chambers' March 17, 1992 announcement of a change in
accounting policies concerning capitalization, the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") initiated an informal investigation with respect
to Chambers' accounting method and the accuracy of its financial statements and
into the possibility that persons or entities had traded in Chambers'
securities on the basis of inside information prior to the announcement. On
September 30, 1992, a formal order of investigation was issued by the
Commission with respect to potential violations by Chambers and others of
sections 10(b), 13(a) and 13(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
("Exchange Act") and various rules promulgated thereunder.
On May 9, 1995, the Commission filed a complaint against Chambers in
the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania
alleging that Chambers violated the antifraud provisions of the Securities Act
of 1933 ("Securities Act") and the antifraud, reporting, internal controls and
recordkeeping provisions of the Exchange Act by issuing false and misleading
earnings announcements from 1989 through March 1992 and including false and
misleading financial statements in its reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q and its
registration statements filed from 1989 through November 1991. Chambers
simultaneously consented, without admitting or denying the Commission's
allegations, to the entry of an order enjoining it from violating certain
provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and requiring it to pay a
civil penalty of $500,000. The $500,000 was accrued as of March 31, 1995
and has been subsequently paid.

<PAGE> 55
USA WASTE SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, CONTINUED
On May 9, 1995, the Commission also instituted administrative
proceedings under section 21C of the Exchange Act against four then current and
former officers of Chambers. The Commission found, among other things, that
two then former officers each were a cause of Chambers' violations of the
reporting, internal controls and recordkeeping provisions of the Exchange Act.
Each of these four persons consented to the issuance of a cease and desist
order without admitting or denying the Commission's findings.
The American Stock Exchange and the Chicago Board of Options Exchange
are conducting investigations into trading activity on their respective
exchanges in Chambers' securities and in put options on Chambers' securities
prior to the March 17, 1992 announcement. On December 4, 1992, Chambers was
served with a grand jury subpoena out of the United States District Court for
the Eastern District of New York seeking production of public filings and
reports disseminated to its shareholders, documents referring to the
preparation of its financial statements and other materials. Chambers has
responded to the subpoena by producing documents. The grand jury investigation
is ongoing and it appears to be focusing on issues similar to those raised by
the civil litigation discussed in Note 4 and the Commission's investigation
described above. The Company is cooperating with each of the investigations.
Insurance
---------
The Company self-insures certain of its comprehensive general
liability and workers compensation risks, while maintaining third-party
coverage to protect against catastrophic loss, except for losses arising from
pollution and environmental liabilities which are self-insured. The Company
has not incurred significant fines, penalties or liabilities for pollution or
environmental liabilities at any of its facilities; however, the Company's
operating results could be adversely affected in the future in the event of
uninsured losses.
The Company has obtained environmental impairment liability insurance
covering certain of its disposal sites and transfer stations. The Company is
in the process of securing coverage for those operations not yet insured.
However, if the Company should decide to operate without insurance, or should
it be unable to obtain adequate insurance in the future, a partially or
completely uninsured claim against the Company, if successful and of sufficient
magnitude, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business or
its financial condition and results of operations.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, CONTINUED
Employment Agreements
---------------------
The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain of its
executives and officers. These employment agreements include provisions
governing compensation and benefits to be paid upon termination of employment
with the Company or certain changes in control of the Company. Under certain
conditions, the agreements can be terminated by the Company or the employee.
Upon termination of the agreement, the employee's compensation would continue
at approximately 75% of the employee's prior compensation for periods ranging
from three to five years. During the three to five year period the employee
would be available to the Company on a part-time basis for consulting and also
would not be permitted to engage in any activities in direct competition with
the Company. If these executives were to be terminated without cause during
1995 or if certain executives elected to terminate their agreements, the
aggregate annual compensation on a part-time basis would be approximately
$1,300,000. If a change in control were to occur in 1995 and the executives
were to elect to take the change in control payments, they would receive
approximately $4,300,000. As of March 31, 1995, the Company has not recorded
any accruals in the financial statements related to these employment agreements.
Other Commitments and Litigation
--------------------------------
The Company has entered into certain agreements with EDM Corporation
and certain other parties in which the Company has committed to advance or
invest up to approximately $20,000,000 for purchase commitments, investment
obligations and loans. Certain of these commitments are dependent upon the
fulfillment of certain conditions by the other party prior to the Company's
outlay of funds. These commitments, if ultimately fulfilled, are expected to
occur over a period of one to five years. The total amount invested and
advanced under these agreements amounted to $5,850,000 as of March 31, 1995.
The Company is a party to other litigation arising in the normal
course of business. In addition, contingencies of an environmental nature
currently exist at certain of its disposal sites. Management believes that the
ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial position and results of operations.
