Transaction Overview FCC Environmental (FCCE) Business Transaction Rationale FCCE Base EBITDA Synergy Opportunities Financing Q&A 5
FCCE Services Used Oil Filter Collection and Recycling Used Oil Collection and Recycling FCCE Services Vacuum Services Parts Cleaner Services Field Services Used Antifreeze Collection and Recycling 6
FCCE Services Used Oil Collection and Recycling 54 Million Gallons (2013) FCCE is the #2 collector of used oil in the USA. Used Oil collections account for two thirds of revenue. Collection of used oil from commercial and industrial sources Oil collected is sold into the recycled fuel oil markets or to oil re-refiners Vacuum & Oily Water Removal Services 55 Million Gallons (2013) Vacuum Services and collection of oily water from customers sites and transport to internal processing facilities The processing facility separates the oil and the water The water is discharged to the local POTW The oil is processed into RFO 7

FCCE Service Area FCCE operates ~34 facilities in ~21 states 10
Transaction Rationale Rationale for the Acquisition includes: Geographic overlap creates large operational cost synergies, especially in oil collection routes across the Gulf Coast, Southeast and Mid-Atlantic regions Post-acquisition HCC is a 100 MM gals per year used oil collector and a very strong #2 player in the U.S. Increased oil collection will more than fully supply re-refining feedstock of expanded 75 million gallon capacity. 11
Transaction Rationale Rationale for the Acquisition also includes: FCCE s 30,000+ customers provide HCC a vehicle for faster growth in Environmental Services segment Substantially larger position in antifreeze recycling market with significant growth prospects and excess recycling capacity FCCE owns significant processing capabilities for vacuum services and oily water waste HCC now has a presence in three phases of the Oil Business Fuel Sales VGO Sales Base Oil Sales 12
FCCE Base EBITDA We consider the FCCE business today to operate at breakeven from an adjusted EBITDA perspective In prior years, EBITDA for this business has been as high as $13 MM Most recent results for past three months reflect an average monthly EBITDA $440K (following very weak Q1) We have assumed a Year 1 base EBITDA of $4 MM and have layered our expected synergies and improvements on top of this 13
Geographic & Service Overlap Potential to realize cost synergies through facility and route consolidation in the states with dual presence Both companies possess expertise and have a reputation for providing excellent service Common services include collection of used oil, oily water, parts cleaning, vacuum services, spent antifreeze and used oil filters Opportunity to cross-sell services and expand collection network due to larger footprint HCCI Only Service Area HCCI and FCCE Shared Service Area 14
Other Synergies and Fit HCCI owns and operates an oil re-refinery in Indianapolis with a 65 million gallon per year capacity which is currently being expanded to 75 million gallon capacity This additional capacity implies need for feedstock for the expanded facility Additional FCC customers also provide opportunity to sell other HCC environmental service immediately. Long track record of growth both organically and through acquisitions. (While at Safety-Kleen current HCC management acquired and integrated oil collection businesses Deffenbaugh's oil recovery (50 MM gpy) and Valvoline First Recovery (60 MM gpy)) 15
Summary of Synergies Estimated Total Annual Synergies = $20 Million Oil Collection Routes Vac/Oily Water Routes Facility Consolidation Head Office Consolidation Transportation/ Logistics Parts Cleaning Business Antifreeze Business Insurance 16
Example Synergies Oil Route Consolidation An efficient route collects a minimum of 500,000 gals per year on average Pre-acquisition HCC s routes averaged well below this figure Facility Consolidation FCC operates ~34 facilities in their market area and HCC operates a similar number of facilities in this area. Opportunities for consolidation of sites We ve identified overlap between FCCE & HCC in various functions (Operations, IT, HR, Accounting, EH&S, etc.) which presents additional synergy opportunities 17
Timing of Synergies Management will begin to execute our assessment and integration plan immediately Synergy realization in Year 1 of $14 MM (before costs to achieve) All synergies realized at 100% in Year 2 and beyond 18
