PONTE VEDRA, Fla., May 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- On May 10, 2017, Steven R. Carn, Chief Financial Officer of Advanced Disposal Services, Inc. (the Company) (NYSE: ADSW) entered into a pre-arranged trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Rule 10b5-1 permits the creation of written plans for buying and selling stock at a time when insiders are not in possession of material non-public information.  Once a plan is established, the insider does not retain or exercise any discretion over sales of shares under the plan.

Under the plan, Mr. Carn intends to contribute up to 110,000 shares of common stock to one or more exchange funds in a private transaction and to sell up to 238,841 shares of common stock in market transactions over time if certain criteria are met.  Mr. Carn has held the shares subject to the plan since December 31, 2008.  Transfer and sale of the shares may commence on May 10, 2017 and would be completed by May 31, 2018.

The plan was adopted by Mr. Carn as part of his personal long-term financial planning for asset diversification, liquidity and estate planning. If all of the sales in this plan are transacted, Mr. Carn's holdings, including shares subject to stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units, will continue to remain in excess of five times his base salary.
