Exhibit 10.2

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

This Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into effective as of             , 2012 (the “Grant Date”), by and between Waste Management, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, the “Company”), and you, (the “Employee”), pursuant to the Waste Management, Inc. 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Employee and the Company agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement as offered herein must be accepted by Employee prior to                     , 2012. Failure to timely accept the terms by such time will result in the immediate and irrevocable cancellation of the Award offered.

1. Award. The Company hereby grants to Employee the number of Restricted Stock Units announced on             , 2012. Restricted Stock Units are notational units of measurement denominated in shares of common stock of Waste Management, Inc., $.01 par value (“Common Stock”). Each Restricted Stock Unit represents a hypothetical share of Common Stock, subject to the conditions and restrictions on transferability set forth below and in the Plan. The Restricted Stock Units will be credited to Employee in an unfunded bookkeeping account established for Employee.

2. Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. The period of time between the Grant Date and the vesting of Restricted Stock Units (and the termination of restriction thereon) will be referred to herein as the “Restriction Period.” During the Restriction Period, the Restricted Stock Units will be subject to the restrictions as set forth herein. Unless timely deferred by Employee in accordance with Section 5, upon vesting, each Restricted Stock Unit will be converted into one share of Company Common Stock and Employee will be issued shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units held, free of any restrictions. Except as otherwise provided herein, the vesting of such Restricted Stock Units and any Dividend Equivalents relating thereto shall occur only if Employee is an employee of the Company on the date of vesting and has continuously been so employed since the Grant Date. Moreover, in order to be eligible to vest in any portion of the Award, Employee must also have entered into an agreement containing restrictive covenants concerning limitations on Employee’s behavior following termination of employment that is satisfactory to the Company and its affiliates

(a) General Vesting Schedule. The Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement shall vest in their entirety on the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Grant Date, unless earlier vested or forfeited pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Accelerated Vesting of Restricted Stock Units.

(i) Acceleration on Death or Disability. Upon Termination of Employment from the Company by reason of Employee’s death or disability (as determined by the Committee and within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”)), or upon Employee’s disability prior to a Termination of Employment (as determined by the Committee and within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code all Restricted Stock Units that are not vested at that time immediately will become vested in full.

(ii) Pro-rated Vesting upon Involuntary Termination by the Company or Retirement by Employee. Upon either an involuntary Termination of Employment without Cause by the Company or a qualifying Retirement by Employee, Employee will be entitled to have vested under this award (including the amount of Restricted Stock Units that have already vested at that time) the amount of Restricted Stock Units equivalent to the total Restricted Stock Units granted under this Agreement multiplied by the fraction which has as its numerator the total number of days that Employee was employed by the Company during the period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on the date of Termination of Employment, and has as its denominator 1,096 (being the number of calendar days in Restriction Period).

(iii) Possible Acceleration upon Change in Control or Certain Terminations Following Change in Control. If there is a Change in Control of Waste Management, Inc., all outstanding but unvested Restricted Stock Units that are not vested will become immediately vested in full, unless the successor entity assumes all awards granted under the Plan and converts the awards to equivalent grants in the successor effective as of the Change in Control. Provided, however, even if the successor entity so assumes and converts all awards granted under the Plan, if the successor entity terminates Employee’s employment during the Window Period without Cause (as each term is defined in Section 16 below), or due to Employee’s death or disability, then all outstanding but unvested Restricted Stock Units (or its equivalent grant in the successor entity) will become immediately vested in full as of such termination.

3. Forfeitures of Restricted Stock Units. Upon Termination of Employment from the Company for any reason other than as described in Section 2, Employee shall immediately forfeit all unvested Restricted Stock Units, without the payment of any consideration or further consideration by the Company. Upon forfeiture, neither Employee nor any successors, heirs, assigns, or legal representatives of Employee shall thereafter have any further rights or interest in the unvested Restricted Stock Units or certificates therefor.

4. Restrictions on Transfer Before Vesting.

(a) Absent prior written consent of the Committee, the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder to Employee may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, from the Grant Date until such shares have become vested and not subject to deferral.

(b) Consistent with the foregoing, except as contemplated by Section 10, no right or benefit under this Agreement shall be subject to transfer, anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, and any attempt to transfer, anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber or charge the same shall be void. No right or benefit hereunder shall in any manner be liable for or subject to any debts, contracts, liabilities or torts of

-2-

the person entitled to such benefits. If Employee or his or her Beneficiary hereunder shall attempt to transfer, anticipate, alienate, assign, sell, pledge, encumber or charge any right or benefit hereunder, other than as contemplated by Section 10, or if any creditor shall attempt to subject the same to a writ of garnishment, attachment, execution, sequestration, or any other form of process or involuntary lien or seizure, then such attempt shall have no effect and shall be void.

5. Elective Deferrals Prior to Vesting.

(a) The Committee may establish procedures pursuant to which Employee may elect to defer, until a time or times later than the vesting of a Restricted Stock Unit, receipt of all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of a Restricted Stock Unit, all on such terms and conditions as the Committee (or its designee) shall determine in its sole discretion. The Committee further retains the authority and discretion to modify and/or terminate existing deferral elections, procedures and distribution options. If any such deferrals are permitted for Employee, then notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, an Employee who elects such deferral shall not have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any such deferred shares of Common Stock unless and until the date the deferral expires and certificates representing such shares are required to be delivered to Employee.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if deferral of Restricted Stock Units is permitted, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to permit the deferral of compensation only as allowed in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and any provision that would conflict with such requirements shall not be valid or enforceable. Employee acknowledges, without limitation, and consents that application of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to this Agreement may require additional delay of payments otherwise payable under this Agreement. Employee and the Company further hereby agree to execute such further instruments and take such further action as reasonably may be necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

6. Rights as a Stockholder. Employee will have no rights as a stockholder with regard to the Restricted Stock Units prior to vesting. However, the Company will pay Dividend Equivalents on unvested Restricted Stock Units, in the form of cash at such time as dividends are paid on the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided that, for Restricted Stock Units that are subject to a valid deferral election of Employee pursuant to Section 5, the Company will pay Dividend Equivalents in the form of additional deferred Restricted Stock Units, credited to Employee’s deferral account effective as of such time as dividends are paid on the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock, but not distributable until such time as directed by Employee’s deferral election.

7. Taxes. To the extent that the vesting or receipt of the Restricted Stock Units or Dividend Equivalents or the lapse of any restrictions results in a taxable event to Employee for federal or state tax purposes, Employee shall deliver to the Company at the time of such receipt or lapse, as the case may be, such amount of money or shares of Common Stock received upon

-3-

vesting of Restricted Stock Units or other shares of Common Stock owned by employee, at Employee’s election, as the Company may require to meet its obligation under applicable tax laws or regulations, and, if Employee fails to do so, the Company is authorized to withhold from the shares of Common Stock deliverable as a result of the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or from any cash or other form of remuneration then or thereafter payable to Employee an amount equivalent to any tax required to be withheld by reasons of such resulting taxation.

8. Changes in Capital Structure. If the outstanding shares of Common Stock or other securities of Waste Management, Inc., or both, shall at any time be changed or exchanged by declaration of a stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, or recapitalization, the number and kind of Restricted Stock Units shall be appropriately and equitably adjusted so as to maintain the proportionate number of shares.

9. Compliance With Securities Laws. The Company will not be required to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such issuance would violate the Securities Act of 1933 or any other applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations. Prior to the issuance of any shares pursuant to this Agreement, the Company may require that Employee (or Employee’s legal representative upon Employee’s death or disability) enter into such written representations, warranties and agreements as the Company may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable securities laws or with this Agreement.

10. Assignment. The Restricted Stock Units are not transferable (either voluntarily or involuntarily), other than pursuant to a domestic relations order. Employee may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries (the “Beneficiary”) to whom the Restricted Stock Units will pass upon Employee’s death and may change such designation from time to time by filing a written designation of Beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Company; provided that no such designation shall be effective until filed with the Company. Employee may change his or her Beneficiary without the consent of any prior Beneficiary by filing a new designation with the Company; provided that no such designation shall be effective prior to receipt by the Company. Following Employee’s death, the Restricted Stock Units will pass to the designated Beneficiary and such person will be deemed Employee for purposes of any applicable provisions of this Agreement. If no such designation is made or if the designated Beneficiary does not survive Employee’s death, the Restricted Stock Units shall pass by will or, if none, then by the laws of descent and distribution.

11. Successors and Assigns.

(a) This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee, the Company and their respective permitted successors or assigns (including personal representatives, heirs and legatees), except that Employee may not assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement except to the extent, and in the manner, expressly permitted herein.

(b) The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company that assumes all Awards granted under the Plan as contemplated by Section 2(b)(iii) to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place, subject to the vesting rights under Section 2(b)(iii).

(c) confer upon Employee the right to continue in the employment or service of the Company.

13. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas, without reference to principles of conflict of laws.

14. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

15. No Waiver. The failure of Employee or the Company to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert any right Employee or the Company may have under this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement.
