Dear Nick:

On behalf of Harsco Corporation, I wish to confirm your appointment to President
and Chief Executive Officer effective today. Your base annual salary will be
increased to $780,000 (Seven Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars and No Cents).

You will continue to be eligible for supplemental compensation annually as a
participant in the Company’s Annual Incentive Plan. Based on the achievement of
Harsco’s overall objectives the target award available to you will be 100% of
your base earnings for the Plan Year and the maximum will be 200%. Any award for
the 2014 Plan Year will be prorated to reflect the targets based on your prior
roles of Chief Financial Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer and your
new role. Plan design and payout criteria in this reward program are reviewed
periodically, are subject to change and are at the sole discretion of the Harsco
Board of Directors.

You will also continue to be eligible to participate in the Harsco Long-Term
Incentive (LTIP) Plan. Your annual target level has now increased to 250% of
your base salary.  The current LTIP provides a combination of restricted stock
units (RSUs), stock appreciation rights (SARs) and performance share units
(PSUs) to eligible participants. Participation is subject to the terms of the
LTIP. LTIP plan design, equity agreements, share ownership requirements,
participation and any grants in this reward program are reviewed annually, are
subject to change and are at the sole discretion of the Harsco Board of
Directors. 
 
You will continue to be bound by the Harsco Confidentiality and Non-Competition
Agreement that you previously signed.

While we hope our relationship will be mutually beneficial, it needs to be
emphasized that our relationship (as with all of our employees) is “at-will”,
that is, you or the Company can end the relationship for any reason and at any
time, with or without cause or advance notice.

Sincerely,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
