WHEREAS, the Company and the Noteholders now desire to amend the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes in the respects, but only in the respects, hereinafter set forth;

WHEREAS, all capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meaning specified in the Note Purchase Agreement;

WHEREAS, all requirements of law have been fully complied with and all other acts and things necessary to make this Agreement a valid, legal and binding instrument according to its terms for the purposes herein expressed have been done or performed.

NOW, THEREFORE, upon the full and complete satisfaction of the conditions precedent to effectiveness set forth in Section 3.1 hereof, and for good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and each of the Noteholders do hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. AMENDMENTS.

Section 1.1. Section 9.9 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the words “Reserved.”.

Section 1.2. Section 9.10 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be and is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:

Stericycle, Inc. Third Amendment

Section 9.10. Note Rating. The Company will, at any time during which (a) (i) the Company’s rating is A- or better by S&P or the equivalent rating by any other Rating Agency, (ii) the Notes do not then have a Private Letter Rating from a Rating Agency and (iii) the Securities Valuation Office of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners does not currently rate the Notes “1” or (b) (i) the Company’s rating is BBB- or better by S&P or the equivalent rating by any other Rating Agency, (ii) the Notes do not then have a Private Letter Rating from a Rating Agency and (iii) the Securities Valuation Office of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners does not currently rate the Notes “2” or “1”, at the request of the Required Holders, obtain a Private Letter Rating with respect to the Notes from one Rating Agency requested by the Required Holders.

Section 1.3. The following shall be added as new Sections 10.1(a)(iii) to the Note Purchase Agreement as follows:

“(iii) If at the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company ending before or on December 31, 2019, the Unadjusted Consolidated Leverage Ratio exceeded 3.75 to 1.00, the per annum interest rate (including any Default Rate, if applicable) otherwise applicable to each series of the Notes as specified in the first paragraph thereof shall be increased as set forth below (the “Primary Elevated Interest Rate”) from the date that such Unadjusted Consolidated Leverage Ratio was in excess of 3.75 to 1.00 to but not including the date that the Unadjusted Consolidated Leverage Ratio is 3.75 to 1.00 or less. The Company shall promptly, and in any event within 10 Business Days after such increase, notify the holders of the Notes in writing and specify the date of such commencement. Payment of the Primary Elevated Interest Rate shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or Event of Default hereunder. The Primary Elevated Interest Rate is determined as follows:

(A) if the Company has rating of BBB or better by S&P or the equivalent rating by any other Rating Agency, then the Primary Elevated Interest Rate shall be an additional 50 basis points (0.50%);

(B) if the Company has rating of BBB- by S&P or the equivalent rating by any other Rating Agency, then the Primary Elevated Interest Rate shall be an additional 75 basis points (0.75%);

(C) if the Company has no rating or a rating of BB+ or worse by S&P or the equivalent rating by any other Rating Agency, then the Primary Elevated Interest Rate shall be 125 basis points (1.25%); and

(D) in the case where the Company has two ratings from two different Rating Agencies, the lowest such rating shall control and in the case where the Company has three ratings from three different Rating Agencies, then the second lowest rating shall control (even if that rating is equal to that of the first lowest).

- 2 -

Stericycle, Inc. Third Amendment

provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the MDL Leverage Increased Interest Rate and the Primary Elevated Interest Rate are not cumulative with each other and only the greater of such increase under Section 10.1(a)(ii) and (iii) shall apply at any given time; and further provided that that no such Increased Interest Rate will be used in calculating the Make-Whole Amount;”

Section 1.4. Additional Definitions. Schedule B to the Note Purchase Agreement is hereby amended to insert the following definitions, each in its respective alphabetical order:

“Primary Elevated Interest Rate” has the meaning set forth in Section 10.1(a)(iii).
