* Effective July 1, 2009, the Republic Services 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) was merged with and into
the Allied Waste 401(k) Plan, and the Plan ceased to exist as a separate plan. The Allied Waste
401(k) Plan was subsequently renamed the Republic Services, Inc. 401(k) Plan. As a result of the
merger, interests in the Plan which constituted securities registered pursuant to the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, no longer exist. Therefore, this Form 15 has been filed to suspend the
Plan’s duty to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
including on Form 11-K.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Republic
Services, Inc. 401(k) Plan, formerly known as the Allied Waste 401(k) Plan (the successor plan, by
merger, to the Plan), has caused this certification/notice to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned duly authorized person.
