• If the City does not give notice (and assuming that CR&R does not give notice to the City), the City would be able to enjoy continued uninterrupted service at stable (although relatively higher) rates over time.

Reasons to give notice:
• With a firm contract expiration date, both parties will be more earnest in negotiations. If the City does not give notice, both parties would have less incentive to hurry, and the process may be prolonged.
• Due to its location in the southern-most part of the County, and its relative distance from the operating yards of other competing waste haulers, the City has less negotiating leverage for waste services than other cities to its north. Due to the current negotiations and procurements of these other nearby cities, this negotiating leverage may diminish even more in the next two years as these cities renegotiate or reprocure their waste agreements. The City of San Clemente may have more negotiation leverage with CR&R now than in the next two years. • There is a risk that WM may exit the waste market in Orange County. As shown below in Table 6, twenty years ago, WM was the exclusive provider in eight cities in Orange County. This year (with the transfer of the City of Santa Ana to Republic Services), WM will be the exclusive provider in only three Orange County cities.

One of these three cities is the difficult-to-serve City of Laguna Beach, which is currently in the RFP process. Another is the City of Lake Forest in which WM has the exclusive obligation to service all residential customers at some of the lowest rates in the County, while it openly competes with other haulers in the more lucrative commercial sector. WM's other city is the City of Mission Viejo, which selected WM in an RFP process in 2019. As a result, WM has far fewer customers

over which to spread its fixed costs than it did twenty years ago, and its remaining cities may not provide the company with high profit margins.

If WM were to retain Laguna Beach, and acquire Lake Forest and Laguna Niguel, it would be less likely that it would exit the waste market in Orange County.

However, these outcomes may not be as likely given the lack of competitiveness WM demonstrated in Laguna Woods.

If another waste company were to offer to purchase WM's contracts in Orange County, it may be more economic for WM to sell these contracts than to continue to operate at thin margins. Moreover, due to CR&R's presence in South County, at some purchase price, WM's current contracts in Irvine and Mission Viejo may be more valuable to CR&R than they are to WM. For all these reasons, there is a risk that WM may exit the waste market in Orange County. If this were to happen, the City of San Clemente would have even less negotiating leverage.

6 Summary of Recommendations
The reasons to initially negotiate with CR&R are summarized below in Table 7. The reasons to issue a notice to terminate the automatic extension are summarized below in Table 8.

Table 7- Reasons to Initially Negotiate with CR&R
Key Reasons Why San !Clemente Should Initially Concluctt Negations with CR&R • CR&R has the infrastructure in place (Perris AD facility) to process the City's organics in compliance with SB 1383.
• The City's current agreement with CR&R includes all the services the City needs to comply with SB 1383
• Due to its market share and facilities in South County, CR&R has the ability to bring economies of scale, and thereby, more competitive rates to the City of San Clemente.
• The City may be able to negotiate more favorable rates. • If the City and CR&R are not able to successfully negotiate a new agreement within six months, the City will still have adequate time to conduct a competitive procurement.

Table 8- Reasons to Issue a Notice to Terminate the Automatic Extension Key Reasons to issue a Notice to Terminate
• Both parties will be more earnest, and an agreement would be negotiated more quickly.
• The City has less negotiating leverage for waste services than other cities to its north, and this negotiating leverage may diminish more over time due to other contracts becoming finalized in the next two years.
■ There is a risk that WM may exit the waste market in Orange County in the nottoo-distant future resulting in even less negotiating leverage for the City.

AGREEMENT
This Exclusive r:ranchise Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into to be effective as of the /jt day of _ _ _1C1Av._~, 2011, by and between the City of San Clemente ("City") and CR&R Incorporated ("Contractor") (collectively, the "Parties") to provide an exclusive franchise for Solid Waste Handling Services within the City.

RECITALS:

A. The Legislature of the State of California, by enactment of the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 ("AB 939"), has declared that it is in the public interest to authorize and require local agencies to make adequate provision for the disposal of all Solid Waste within their jurisdictions.

B. Pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 40059(a)(1 ), the City Council of the City of San Clemente has determined that the public health, safety, and welfare require that an exclusive franchise agreement be awarded to a qualified solid waste enterprise for Solid Waste Handling Services within the City Limits.

C. City previously entered a franchise agreement for Solid Waste Handling Services with Contractor dated August 6, 1997 (the "Prior Agreement"). The Prior Agreement has been amended three (3) times previously. It is the desire of the parties by entering this Amended and Restated Agreement to restate existing obligations in a single document, and, with respect to specific newly adopted provisions supersede the Prior Agreement, as more fully set forth herein.

D. City and Contractor arc mindful of the provisions of the laws governing the safe collection, transport, recycling, and disposal of Solid Waste, including AB 939, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA"), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"). City and Contractor desire to leave no doubts as to their respective roles, and to memorialize that by entering into this Agreement. City is not thereby becoming an "arranger" or a "generator" as those terms are used in CERCLA, and that it is Contractor, not City, who is "a1rnnging for" the collection, transport for disposal, composting, and recycling of municipal Solid Waste in the City which may contain hazardous substances.

City and Contractor understand and agree that it is Contractor, and not City, who will a1Tange to collect Solid Waste, that City has not, and, by this Agreement does not, instruct Contractor on its collection methods, nor supervise the collection process, nor do the Parties intend to place title to such Solid Waste in City, but rather intend that whatever, if any, title in and to such Solid Waste that otherwise might exist in or with City in the absence of this Agreement is hereby transferred to Contractor, and fu1ther that if Contractor gains title to such Solid Waste it is by operation of law and agreement with its Customers and is not the result of this Agreement. By entering this Agreement City and Contractor fu1ther desire to confirm that Contractor has agreed to indemnify the City in connection with any claims relating to the inadve11ent or intentional collection, transpo11ation and/or disposal of hazardous materials that may occur in connection with Contractor's performance under this Agreement.

E. Contractor has agreed, as part of this Agreement, to provide such services as arc necessary or desirable to ensure City complies with the requirements of AB 939 and Public Resources Code Section 40000, et seq.

F. City desires, among other things, to ensure adequate landfills remain available to meet the public's need for the safe handling and disposal of Solid Waste, and further desires to ensure its citizens do not incur undue costs in safely disposing of Solid Waste they generate, anc.1 has thus entered into the County Agreement (as defined herein.) Contractor hus agreed, as part of this Agreement, to provide such services and take such actions as are necessary or desirable to ensure City complies with its obligations pursuant to the County Agreement.

COVENANTS:

Orange County area Producer Price Index ("PPI") for the twelve-month period commencing fifteen (15) months prior lo the applicable Adjustment Date and ending three (1) months prior to the applicable Adjustment Date. Notwithstanding the above, no annual adjustment in which the forging items would otherwise increase shall occur if either: (a) the City Manager determines that Contractor did not fully comply with all terms of this Agreement in the 12 month period preceding the increase, including without limitation, provisions hereof relating to reporting, diversion, and Customer service standards; or (b) Contractor is delinquent in the payment of any Franchise Fee to the City.

To arrive at an appropriate adjustment formula to satisfy this intent, the pa11ies have agreed that the "Disposal Component Tonnage Basis" set forth in Exhibit A is a fair estimate of the amount of Solid Waste generated and ultimately disposed of by each applicable Customer and/or service type. The initial maximum rate associated with the disposal component for various services set fo1th in Exhibit A has been arrived at by multiplying the Disposal Component Tonnage Basis for each applicable Customer and/or service type by $29.95 which is the per ton tipping fee charged by the Orange County Landfill System (where as of the Effective Date Solid Waste must be delivered for disposal per the County Agreement). The Disposal Component Tonnage Basis is premised upon historical data of the actual tonnage of Solid Waste generated by each Customer type. The Parties may annually evaluate the actual disposal tonnage data related to each Customer type and, if approved by the City Manager, the Disposal Component Tonnage Basis may be adjusted upward or downward, as appropriate, effective upon any Adjustment Date. (f upon any Adjustment Date a change becomes effective in the tipping tees charged to Contractor at the Orange County Landfill system, pursuant to the County Agreement, the disposal component associated with any of the maximum rates set forth in Exhibit A shall be adjusted as of the Adjustment Date by similarly multiplying the Disposal Component Tonnage Basis for each applicable Customer and/or service type by the per ton tipping fee then in effect. r n the event an increase becomes effective in applicable tipping fees at a time other than an annual Adjustment Date, Contractor may request an adjustment to the maximum rates applicable to the Disposal Component set forth on Exhibit A pursuant to Section 21 D hereof.

RECITALS
A. The Legislature of the State of California, by enactment of the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 ("AB 939"), has declared that it is in the public interest to authorize and require local agencies to make adequate provision for the disposal of all Solid Waste within their jurisdictions.

B.

C. The City and Contractor entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement for Solid Waste Handling Services dated January I, 201 I (the "Agreement").

D. City and Contractor are mindful of the provisions of the laws governing the safe collection, transport, recycling, and disposal of Solid Waste, including AB 939, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA"), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"). City and Contractor desire to leave no doubts as to their respective roles, and to memorialize that by entering into this Amendment No. I to the Agreement. City is not thereby becoming an "arranger" or a "generator" as those terms are used in CERCLA, and that it is Contractor, not City, who is "arranging for" the collection, transport for disposal, composting, and recycling of municipal Solid Waste in the City which may contain hazardous substances. City and Contractor understand and agree that it is Contractor, and not City, who will arrange to collect Solid Waste, that City has not, and, by this Agreement does not, instruct Contractor on its collection methods, nor supervise the collection process, nor do the Parties intend to place title to such Solid Waste in City, but rather intend that whatever, if any, title in and to such Solid Waste that otherwise might exist in or with City in the absence of this Agreement is hereby transferred to Contractor, and further that if Contractor gains title to such Solid Waste it is by operation of law and agreement with its Customers and is not the result of this Agreement.

1:. City desires, among other things, to ensure adequate landfills remain available to meet the public's need for the safe handling and disposal of Solid Waste, and further desires to ensure its citizens do not incur undue costs in safely disposing of Solid Waste they generate, and has thus entered into the County Agreement (as defined in the Agreement) Contractor has agreed, as part of this Amendment No. I to provide such services and take such actions as are necessary or desirable to ensure City complies with its obligations pursuant to the County Agreement.

U. Subsequent to the start of the Exclusive Agreement, AB 341 (Mandatory Commercial Recycling), AB 1826 (Organics Collection), and AB 1594 (elimination of green waslt:
diversion for cover at landfills) have been enacted by the California State Legislature requiring the City and Contractor to revise and add programs to meet additional solid waste compliance requirements of each bill.

H. City and Contractor now desire to amend the Agreement as more fully set forth herein. Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Amendment No. I, the remaining provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
