NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise noted)

1. General

As used in this Form 10-Q
and in these notes, the terms AGY, the Company, we, us, or our mean AGY Holding Corp. and subsidiary companies. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are
those of AGY Holding Corp. and subsidiary companies. Refer to Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the 2009 Form 10-K) for a discussion
of our significant accounting policies.

AGY Holding Corp. is a Delaware corporation with its headquarters in South Carolina. KAGY Holding
Company, Inc. (Holdings) is the sole shareholder of the Company. AGY is a leading manufacturer of advanced glass fibers that are used as reinforcing materials in numerous diverse, high-value applications, including aircraft laminates,
ballistic armor, pressure vessels, roofing membranes, insect screening, architectural fabrics, and specialty electronics. AGY is focused on serving end-markets that require glass fibers for applications with demanding performance criteria, such as
the aerospace, defense, construction, electronics, automotive, and industrial end-markets.

On June 10, 2009, the Company acquired a 70%
interest in a foreign company, whose results of operations since the acquisition date are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Since this acquisition, the Company operates as two reportable segments (each a single
operating segment) consisting of AGY U.S. manufacturing operations (AGY US) and AGY Asian manufacturing operations (AGY Asia).

Basis of Consolidation and Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim
consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of items of a normal recurring
nature) considered necessary for a fair statement of financial condition and results of operations have been included. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the
full year.

The Companys business is conducted through AGY Holding Corp., its two wholly owned domestic subsidiaries, AGY Aiken LLC and
AGY Huntingdon LLC and its wholly owned foreign subsidiaries, AGY Europe SARL (France) and AGY Cayman LLC (Cayman Islands). AGY Cayman LLC (Cayman Islands) is the holding company of the 70% controlling ownership in AGY Hong Kong Ltd. (formerly Main
Union Industrial Ltd.) and its subsidiaries since June 10, 2009. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in our 2009 Form 10-K. The December 31, 2009 balances are derived from the audited financial statements in the 2009 Form 10-K.

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates and are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those
identified in the Risk Factors section of our 2009 Form 10-K. Changes in facts and circumstances may have a significant impact on the resulting financial statements.

Deferred financing fees are amortized by the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest
method.

The Companys process technology consists of several patents that relate to the design, application or manufacturing for key
products, and its estimated useful life is based on the average legal life of the patents and the Companys estimated economic life of the processes.

During the first quarter of 2009, the Company purchased $3,000 (face amount) of its 11% senior secured second lien notes (Notes) (see Note 9). The allocable portion of debt issuance costs
related to these Notes of $70 was netted against the gain on the repurchase of the Notes in other non-operating income.

6.
Goodwill Impairment Charge

As of June 30, 2009, lower than expected operating profit and cash flows and short-to-mid-term business
outlook associated with the global economic environment triggered management to reassess the recoverability of the goodwill associated with the purchase of AGY Holding Corp. by Holdings in April 2006. As a result, management concluded, with the
assistance of independent third-party valuation specialists, that as of June 30, 2009, the goodwill associated with the AGY US segment was partially impaired. The Company recognized a non-cash, pre-tax goodwill impairment charge of $44,466,
classified as a charge against loss from operations in the second quarter of 2009.

The Company performed its annual impairment
testing of goodwill during the fourth quarter of 2009 after the annual budgeting process. Future earnings and cash flows projections for the next two years were revised to reflect, among other assumptions, the improvement in 2010 compared to the
fourth quarter of 2009 in the primary markets the Company serves. The Company utilized the valuation hierarchy provided in ASC 820-10 to measure at fair value this goodwill. Management concluded from this review, with the assistance of independent
third-party valuation specialists, that as of October 31, 2009 the goodwill associated with the AGY US segment was fully impaired and the Company recognized an additional non-cash, pre-tax goodwill impairment charge of $40,526, classified as a
loss from operations in the fourth quarter of 2009.

7. Restructuring Initiatives

2010 Cost Reduction Actions

As part of the Companys continuing review and improvement of its cost structure, actions were taken in the first nine months of 2010 to further optimize the AGY US segment manufacturing footprint.
The Company is downsizing and flexing certain underutilized manufacturing facilities in the U.S. to improve profitability and better adjust its production capacity to projected future worldwide market demand. In conjunction with these actions,
during the first nine months of 2010 the Company recorded $6,092 in charges, of which $1,978 is related primarily to the relocation of certain manufacturing equipment and is included in Restructuring charges and $4,114 is related to
accelerated depreciation expense and is included in Cost of goods sold. Most of the cash costs related to these actions were incurred and paid during the same period.

The following table summarizes the status of unpaid liabilities from the Companys 2010 restructuring initiatives:



|                                 |  |                       |      |   |                                     |   |        |        |  |   |       |   |  |   |        |

The Company continues to evaluate its global manufacturing footprint to ensure the optimization of its production capacity
and its overhead cost structure. As a result of this evaluation, similar activities are anticipated to continue throughout 2010 and into 2011 and could result in additional cash payments and accelerated depreciation expense.

2009 Cost Reduction Actions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recorded $752 of restructuring charges that related primarily to severance and outplacement cost for salaried positions that the Company
eliminated within the AGY US segment.

These 2009 cost reduction actions and their payment were completed in 2009.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility

The Companys $40,000 Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (Credit Facility) matures in October 2011 and includes a $20,000 sublimit
for the issuance of letters of credit and a $5,000 sublimit for swing line loans. The borrowing base for the Credit Facility is equal to the sum of: (i) an advance rate against eligible accounts receivable of up to 90%, plus (ii) the
lesser of (A) 65% of the book value of eligible inventory (valued at the lower of cost or market) and (B) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value for eligible inventory, plus (iii) up to $32,500 of eligible alloy inventory, minus
(iv) 100% of market-to-market risk on certain interest hedging arrangements, minus (v) a reserve of $7,500. As amended in connection with the Companys acquisition of a 70% interest in AGY Asia, certain provisions of the credit
agreement were modified or added, including the following: the availability reserve in the borrowing base calculation increased from $7,500 to $10,000; the foreign subsidiary indebtedness of AGY Asia or its subsidiaries is permitted provided that it
is non-recourse indebtedness; the investment associated with the purchase of the remaining 30% is permitted provided that the Companys excess availability under the facility is at least $10,000 for 60 days prior to the consummation date and
$12,500 immediately following such consummation; and it is an event of default under the credit agreement if the Company defaults under its obligations regarding the acquisition of the remaining 30% of AGY Asia. In addition, the applicable margin
for any utilization of the revolver in excess of $25,000 increased from 1.75% to 3.0% for Eurodollar loans and from 0.75% to 2.0% for base rate loans. No other material terms of the credit agreement were modified under the amendment.

At the Companys option, loans under the Credit Facility bear interest based on either the eurodollar rate or base rate (a rate equal to the greater
of the corporate base rate of interest established by the administrative agent under the Credit Facility from time to time, and the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%) plus, in each case, an applicable margin of 1.75% in the case of eurodollar
rate loans and 0.75% in the case of base rate loans.

In addition, there are customary commitment and letter of credit fees under the Credit
Facility. All obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company and all of its existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The Companys obligations under the Credit Facility are secured, subject to
permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions, by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the Companys assets.

At
September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had borrowings of $15,150 and $19,250, respectively, outstanding under the Credit Facility. The weighted average interest rate for cash borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2010, was
2.16%. At September 30, 2010, we also had issued approximately $2,360 of standby letters of credit primarily for collateral required for utilities, fixed-rate natural gas purchases and workers compensation obligations. Borrowing
availability after giving effect to the borrowing base at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, was approximately $20,900 and $18,450, respectively.

The Credit Facility does not contain any financial maintenance covenants. Under certain events of default and other conditions, including failure to pay indebtedness under the senior secured second lien
notes, payment of the outstanding principal and interest could be accelerated.

The Credit Facility contains
customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and consolidations, dividends and other payments in respect to
capital stock, transactions with affiliates, and optional payments and modifications of subordinated and other debt instruments. The Credit Facility also includes customary events of default, including a default upon a change of control. The Company
was in compliance with all such covenants at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Senior Secured Notes

Interest on our Senior Secured Notes due in 2014 (the Notes) is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15
of each year beginning May 15, 2007. Our obligations under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a second-priority basis, by each of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries, other than immaterial
subsidiaries, that guarantee the indebtedness of the Company, including the Credit Facility, or the indebtedness of any restricted subsidiaries.

In February 2009, we repurchased $3,000 face amount of Notes for $1,792 plus accrued interest of $92 and commission of $8, resulting in a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $1,138 (net of $70 of
deferred financing fees written off), classified as other non-operating income.

At any time prior to November 15, 2010, we
may redeem all or a part of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes redeemed plus an applicable make-whole payment. Currently, we do not expect to utilize the remaining optional redemption provision.

As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the estimated fair value of the Notes was $147,060 and $140,610, respectively,
compared to a recorded book value of $172,000 for both periods. The fair value of the Notes is estimated on the basis of quoted market prices; however, trading in these securities is limited and may not reflect fair value. The fair value is subject
to fluctuations based on, among other things, the Companys performance, its credit rating and changes in interest rates for debt securities with similar terms.

The indenture governing the notes contains a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (calculated based on Consolidated Cash Flow (as defined therein)), which is used to determine our ability to make
restricted payments, incur additional indebtedness, issue preferred stock and enter into mergers or consolidations or sales of substantially all assets. The indenture does not allow us to pay dividends or distributions on our outstanding capital
stock (including to our parent) and limits or restricts our ability to incur debt, repurchase securities, make certain prohibited investments, create liens, transfer or sell assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, issue or sell stock of a
subsidiary or merge or consolidate. The indenture does not contain any financial maintenance covenants.

Under certain events of default,
including defaults under the Credit Facility, payment of the outstanding principal and interest could be accelerated.

AGY Asia Credit Facility- Non-recourse

The indebtedness of $38,967 assumed in the acquisition of AGY Asia was refinanced as discussed below. On July 10, 2009, AGY Asia entered into a financing arrangement with the Bank of Shanghai
(AGY Asia Credit Facility). On June 8, 2010, a portion of the USD loan commitment was exchanged for RMB commitment under both the project loan and the working capital loan. The arrangement now consists of a five-year term loan in
the aggregate amount of approximately $41,200 (consisting of a loan denominated in local currency of RMB 222,200, or approximately $33,200 converted at an exchange rate of RMB 6.70 to 1 U.S. dollar, and a U.S.-dollar-denominated loan of $8,000), a
one-year working capital loan in the aggregate amount of approximately $11,900 (consisting of a local currency loan of RMB 59,500, or approximately $8,900 converted at an exchange rate of RMB 6.7 to 1 U.S. dollar, and a U.S.-dollar-denominated loan
of $3,000), and a one-year letter of credit facility in the amount of $2,000. As discussed above, proceeds from the loans were used principally to repay the $37,568 outstanding at the time of the refinancing under AGY Asias prior credit
agreements.

The term loan is secured by AGY Asias building, alloy metals and equipment and bears interest annually at the rate of
either the five-year lending rate as published by the Peoples Bank of China, plus a margin, or six-month LIBOR plus 3.0%. Term loan borrowings may be made in both local currency and US dollars, up to certain limits. At September 30, 2010
and December 31, 2009, AGY Shanghai had approximately $36,279 and $35,558 of borrowings outstanding under the term loan, respectively, consisting of a local currency loan of RMB 198,500 and RMB 195,000, respectively, or approximately $29,622
and $28,715, respectively, converted at an exchange rate of RMB 6.7 to 1 U.S. dollar, and a U.S.-dollar-denominated loan of $6,657 and $7,000, respectively. The weighted average interest rate for cash borrowings outstanding as of September 30,
2010, was 5.81%.

Principal on the term loan is due
semi-annually beginning April 2010, in accordance with the following amortization schedule (when the term loan is fully drawn):



|     |  |   |        | 
|---- |  | - | ------ |

|     |  |   |        | 
|     |  | $ | 41,200 | 
|     |  |   |        | 

The working capital loan facility is secured by future equipment and assets acquired by AGY Shanghai and bears interest
annually at the rate of either the one-year lending rate as published by the Peoples Bank of China, or three-month LIBOR plus 3.0%. On June 8, 2010, the working capital loan and letter of credit facility were renewed for a one-year term
to June 2011.

At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, AGY Asia had approximately $8,827 and $5,661 borrowings, respectively,
outstanding under the working capital loan consisting of a local currency loan of RMB 45,750 and RMB 25,000, respectively, or approximately $6,827 and $3,681, respectively, converted at an exchange rate of RMB 6.7 to 1 U.S. dollar, and a
U.S.-dollar-denominated loan of $2,000 at the end of each period. The weighted average interest rate for cash borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2010, was 5.26%.

The letter of credit facility is a one-year facility for the issuance of documentary letters of credit up to a maximum term of 120 days. A 15% deposit is required upon issuance with the balance due upon
settlement of the underlying obligation.

The loan agreements contain customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and
negative covenants, including, among other things, interest coverage, debt-to-assets ratio, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and consolidations, dividends and other payments in respect to capital stock, and transactions with
affiliates. The loan agreements also include customary events of default, including a default upon a change of control. AGY Shanghai was in compliance with all such covenants at September 30, 2010.

All amounts borrowed under the AGY Asia Credit Facility are non-recourse to AGY Holding Corp. or any other domestic subsidiary of AGY Holding Corp.

11. Employee Benefits

Pension and Other Post-retirement Benefits

Pension Benefits -As described more fully in our 2009 Form 10-K, we have a reimbursement obligation to Owens Corning (OC) under OCs defined benefit pension plan covering certain
of our employees. Our obligation to OC is unfunded. We do not have a defined benefit pension plan.

Other Post-retirement Benefits -We
have a post-retirement benefit plan that covers substantially all of our domestic employees. Upon the attainment of age sixty-two and the completion of ten years of continuous service, an employee may elect to retire. Employees eligible to retire
may receive limited postretirement health and life insurance benefits. We also have an unfunded reimbursement obligation to OC for certain of our retirees who retired under OCs retiree medical plan.

Expected net employer contributions for the defined benefit plan for the year ending December 31, 2010 are $544.
Expected net employer contributions for the postretirement benefit plan for the year ending December 31, 2010 are $468.

Defined Contribution Plan

The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) plan that allows qualifying employees to contribute up to 30% of their annual pretax or after-tax compensation subject to Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
limitations. Effective January 1, 2007, AGY may provide a voluntary matching employer contribution of 50% on up to 6% of each participants before-tax salary deferral. In addition, AGY may make an employer contribution to the plan based on
the Companys annual financial performance. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company contributed $493 and $448 respectively.

12. Stock-based Compensation

Our stock-based compensation includes stock options and
restricted stock as described in our 2009 Form 10-K. Total stock-based compensation was $36 and $607 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. During 2010, options for 70,000 shares of common stock were granted with a
fair value of $2.36 for each option. Assumptions used in the Companys Black Scholes valuation model to estimate the grant date fair value were expected volatility of 41%, expected dividends of 0%, expected term of 4.4 years and a risk free
interest rate of 1.78%.

14. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We periodically enter into fixed-price agreements for the natural gas commodity requirements of our AGY US segment to reduce the variability of the cash flows associated with forecasted purchases of
natural gas. Although these contracts are considered derivative instruments, they typically meet the normal purchases exclusion contained in ASC 815, and are therefore exempted from the related accounting requirements. At September 30, 2010, we
had existing contracts for physical delivery of natural gas at our Aiken, SC facility that fix the commodity cost of natural gas for approximately 70% of our 2010 requirements and 50% of our January through August 2011 requirements for AGY US
segment estimated natural gas purchases.

We also use, on occasion, foreign currency derivatives to manage the risk associated with
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had no foreign currency hedging agreements in effect.

15. Alloy Metals Leases

Significant portions of the alloy metals needed to support our manufacturing operations are leased under short term operating facilities
(generally with lease terms from one to twelve months). During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, total lease costs of alloy metals were approximately $2,775 and $2,736, respectively, and were classified as a component of cost
of goods sold.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and in 2009, we have leased alloy metals under the following two
agreements:

Metal Consignment FacilityFrom May 2005 to October 2009, AGY had a consignment agreement in place
with Bank of Nova Scotia, as assignee of Bank of America, N.A., which was assignee of Fleet Precious Metals Inc., to lease platinum, one of the alloy metals used in our manufacturing operations. In March 2008, as a result of the increase in platinum
market prices, the prior consignment limit was amended to provide up to the lesser of: a) $69,600; b) the value of 32,000 ounces of platinum; or c) $42,000 plus two times the then-available undrawn face amount of letters of credit securing the
agreement. Lease payments were payable monthly and, at the Companys election, based on either (i) a floating fee calculated and specified by Bank of Nova Scotia from time to time and initially set at 7.5% per annum or (ii) a
fixed fee equal to the precious metals rate, which was the fixed market-based lease rate for the applicable lease period, plus a 2.0% margin. At September 30, 2009, we leased 26,400 ounces of platinum under the facility, with a notional value
of approximately $34,000 as calculated under the facility. Unused availability at September 30, 2009, was approximately 5,600 ounces of platinum with a notional value of $35,600. If the market value of the leased platinum exceeded $69,600 or
32,000 ounces, the Company was required to purchase or otherwise provide sufficient platinum to reduce the lease balance. At September 30, 2009, there were no outstanding letters of credit securing the agreement. Effective October 7, 2009,
the Company terminated the Metal Consignment Facility with Bank of Nova Scotia and entered into a new master lease agreement with Deutsche Bank as discussed below.

Deutsche Bank Master Lease Agreement  Simultaneously with the termination of the OC master lease agreement in October 2008, we entered into a new master lease agreement (the
Master Lease Agreement) with DB Energy Trading LLC (DB) for the purpose of leasing precious metals. The Master Lease Agreement described the lease terms and conditions enabling AGY to lease up to 19,057 ounces of platinum and
3,308 ounces of rhodium. The Master Lease Agreement had a three-year term and allowed AGY to enter into leases of alloy metals with terms of one to twelve months. Lease costs were determined by the quantity of metal leased, multiplied by a benchmark
value of the applicable precious metal and a margin above the lease rate index based on DBs daily precious metal rates.

At
September 30, 2009, we leased approximately 12,700 ounces of platinum and 2,200 ounces of rhodium under the Master Lease Agreement, with a notional value of approximately $15,800.

In connection with the termination of the Metal Consignment Facility with Bank of Nova Scotia on October 7, 2009, the Master Lease Agreement was also terminated and we entered into a new master lease
agreement (the New Master Lease Agreement) with DB. The New Master Lease Agreement has a three-year term and allows AGY to enter into leases of alloy metals, up to 51,057 ounces of platinum and up to 3,308 ounces of rhodium, with terms
of one to twelve months. Lease costs are determined by the quantity of metal leased, multiplied by a benchmark value of the applicable precious metal and a margin above the lease rate index based on DBs daily precious metal rates. The New
Master Lease Agreement is secured by a security interest in rhodium up to a value that is the lesser of 35% of the leased platinum or $24,400. The New Master Lease Agreement contains customary events of default, including, without limitation,
nonpayment of lease payments, inaccuracy of representations and warranties in any material respect and a cross-default provision with any credit facility or leasing facility greater than $0.5 million, including the Credit Facility and the Notes.
There are no financial maintenance covenants included in the New Master Lease Agreement.

At September 30, 2010, we leased approximately
41,300 ounces of platinum and 2,600 ounces of rhodium under the New Master Lease Agreement, with a notional value of approximately $60,300 and $6,100, respectively. All of the leases outstanding at September 30, 2010 had initial terms of two to
twelve months, maturing no later than October 10, 2011 (with future minimum rentals of approximately $2,100 until maturity in October 2011).

16. Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilized the valuation hierarchy provided in ASC 820-10 to determine the fair value of assets measured on a non-recurring
basis in periods subsequent to the initial adoption of ASC 820-10:



| |  |  | Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly based on inputs not quoted on
active markets, but corroborated by market data.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible.

At September 30, 2010, there were no assets or liabilities required to
be measured at fair value in periods subsequent to their initial recognition.

17. Noncontrolling Interest

As discussed in Note 2, on June 10, 2009 the Company purchased a 70% controlling interest in AGY Asia. The 30% noncontrolling interest
(NCI) was recorded at the acquisition date at a fair value of $12,431, which was derived from an option agreement, pursuant to which the Company has the right to purchase the remaining 30% NCI at a stipulated multiple of earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization if certain financial performances are achieved. Grace has the right to put their remaining 30% ownership to the Company after the one-year anniversary of the execution of the AGY Asia Purchase Agreement
at a stipulated multiple of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The put option became exercisable upon the first anniversary of the completion date of the AGY Asia acquisition, June 10, 2010.

We assessed the option agreement under the guidance of ASC 815 and ASC 480-10 and considered it was not a freestanding financial instrument but a
redeemable equity interest, which is not solely within the control of the Company. Therefore, at the acquisition date, the fair value of the redeemable portion of the NCI was reclassified as temporary, or mezzanine, equity presented in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet between total liabilities and shareholders equity.

At September 30, 2010 and
December 31, 2009, the Company recorded the attribution of the NCI net loss and other comprehensive income according to ASC 810-10-65 and performed a subsequent measurement of the probable redemption amount per ASC 480-10-S99. As the present
value of the probable redemption price was below the initial carrying value of the NCI and as the redemption was still probable, we concluded that the mezzanine classification was still appropriate as of December 31, 2009. As of
September 30, 2010 the equity instrument became redeemable but remains below its initial carrying value. Therefore, only the redemption amount assessed as of September 30, 2010 is classified in mezzanine equity and any NCI above this
amount is presented in permanent equity.

Changes in noncontrolling interest are set forth below:

18. Income Taxes

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Companys effective tax was an expense of 1.1% and a benefit of
23.7%, respectively. These rates varied from the statutory rate of 34% due primarily to establishment of valuation allowance during the third quarter for domestic deferred tax assets which are not more-likely-than-not to be realized, change in
foreign valuation allowance, losses on domestic and foreign subsidiaries with no tax benefit, and foreign rate differential, which benefits were partially offset by state taxes. Generally, the Company can recognize deferred tax assets for the losses
incurred until such time that the aggregate deferred tax assets exceed aggregate deferred tax liabilities that do not relate to assets with an indefinite useful life.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Companys effective tax was a benefit of 33.9% and 21.3%, respectively. The rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2009
varied from the statutory rate of 34% due primarily to higher pre-tax losses recognized during this period, a goodwill impairment charge not deductible for tax, a nontaxable gain in connection with the bargain purchase related to the AGY Asia
acquisition, and transactional costs that were expensed during 2009 but not deductible for tax, which benefits were partially offset by state taxes.

19. Commitments and Contingencies

We are not a party to any significant litigation or
claims, other than routine matters incidental to the operation of the Company. We do not expect that the outcome of any pending claims will have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations,
or cash flows.

There may be insignificant levels of asbestos in certain manufacturing facilities, however, the Company does not expect to
incur costs (which are undeterminable) in the foreseeable future to remediate any such asbestos. Accordingly, management did not record a conditional asset retirement obligation related to such asbestos remediation because, in accordance with the
guidance of ASC 410, the Company does not have sufficient information to estimate the fair value of the asset retirement obligation.

In
addition to the alloy metal leases discussed in Note 15, we also lease other equipment and property under operating leases. Total rent expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, was approximately $1,250 and $1,500,
respectively. We are obligated to make approximately $800 minimum purchases of marbles from Chinese marble producers during the remainder of 2010.

20. Segment Information

Since the acquisition of AGY Asia on June 10, 2009, the
Company has two reportable segments, each a separate operating segment. The AGY US segment includes the US manufacturing operations and its sales of advanced glass fibers that are used worldwide as reinforcing materials in numerous high-value
applications and end-markets through AGY Holding Corp., its wholly owned domestic and French subsidiaries. The AGY Asia segment includes the manufacturing operations of the Companys 70% controlling interest in AGY Hong Kong Ltd. and its sales
of advanced glass fibers that are used primarily in the Asian electronics markets. The Companys operating segments are managed separately based on differences in their manufacturing and technology capabilities, products and services and their
end-markets as well as their distinct financing agreements. The financial results for our operating segments are prepared using a management approach, which is consistent with the basis and manner in which we internally segregate financial
information for the purpose of making internal operating decisions. We evaluate the performance of our operating segments based on operating profit. Corporate and certain other expenses are not allocated to the operating segments, except
to the extent that the expense can be directly attributable to the operating segment.

accelerated depreciation expense (discussed in Note 7), stock compensation expense, the management fees payable to our sponsor, and $1,144 of gain recorded on the sale of assets.

21. Condensed Consolidating
Financial Statements

As described in Note 10 to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31,
2009 on Form 10-K, in 2006 the Company issued $175,000 aggregate principal amount of the Old Notes, which were exchanged for the Notes through a registration statement in 2008. As of September 30, 2010, $172,000 of Notes remain outstanding. The
Notes are guaranteed, fully, unconditionally and jointly and severally, by each of AGY Holding Corp.s existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, other than immaterial subsidiaries (collectively, the Combined Guarantor
Subsidiaries).

For the purpose of this footnote:



| |  |  | AGY Holding Corp. is referred to as Parent;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Combined Guarantor Subsidiaries represent all subsidiaries other than the Combined Nonguarantor subsidiaries defined below; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Combined Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2010 include only the subsidiaries forming AGY Asia: AGY Cayman LLC, AGY
Hong Kong Ltd and AGY Shanghai.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All of the Parents subsidiaries were domestic guarantors of the Notes through
June 10, 2009, when the Company acquired the entities comprising AGY Asia, which became the only Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. The following supplemental condensed consolidating financial information is presented on the equity method and reflects
the Parents separate accounts, the accounts of the Combined Guarantor Subsidiaries, the accounts of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, the consolidating adjustments and eliminations and the total consolidated accounts for the dates and periods
indicated. The required condensed consolidating information for the period ended September 30, 2009 is not presented as such information is not deemed material to the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2.  Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements with respect to our operations, industry, financial condition and liquidity. These statements
reflect our managements assessment of a number of risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors identified in this Quarterly
Report. An additional statement made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and summarizing certain of the principal risks and uncertainties inherent in our business is included herein under the caption Disclosure
Regarding Forward- Looking Statements. You are encouraged to read this statement carefully.

You should read the following discussion
and analysis in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related notes, and with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the 2009 Form 10-K) filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms AGY, the Company,
we and our in this report refer to AGY Holding Corp. and its subsidiaries.

GENERAL

We are a leading manufacturer of advanced glass fibers that are used as reinforcing materials in numerous diverse high-value applications, including aircraft laminates, ballistic armor, pressure vessels,
roofing membranes, insect screening, architectural fabrics and specialty electronics. We are focused on serving end-markets that require glass fibers for applications with demanding performance criteria, such as the aerospace, defense, construction,
electronics, automotive and industrial end-markets.

Since the acquisition of AGY Asia on June 10, 2009 as discussed further below, the
Company has two reportable segments, each a separate operating segment. The AGY US segment includes the U.S. manufacturing operations and its sale of advanced glass fibers that are used worldwide as reinforcing materials in numerous high-value
applications and end-markets through AGY Holding Corp. and its wholly-owned domestic and French subsidiaries. The AGY Asia segment includes the manufacturing operations of the Companys 70% controlling interest in AGY Hong Kong Ltd. and its
sale of advanced glass fibers that are used primarily in the Asian electronics markets. The Companys operating segments are managed separately based on differences in their manufacturing and technology capabilities, products and services and
their end-markets as well as their distinct financing agreements. AGY Holding Corp. is a Delaware corporation and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of KAGY Holding Company, Inc. (Holdings). Holdings acquired all of our outstanding stock in
April 2006 (the Acquisition). Our principal executive office is located at 2556 Wagener Road, Aiken, South Carolina 29801 and our telephone number is (888) 434-0945. Our website address is http://www.agy.com.

BUSINESS COMBINATION

On June 10, 2009, AGY Cayman, a company incorporated in the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed its acquisition of 70% of the outstanding shares of Main Union
Industrial Ltd. (renamed AGY Hong Kong Ltd.), a company incorporated in Hong Kong with a 100% controlling interest in Shanghai Grace Technology Co., Ltd. (renamed AGY Shanghai Technology Co., Ltd. (AGY Shanghai)), a company incorporated
in the Peoples Republic of China (PRC), which is a glassfiber yarns manufacturer. This acquisition expands AGYs geographic, manufacturing, and servicing capabilities in the Asia-Pacific region relative to the electronics and
industrial end-markets.

The Company paid $20 million in cash for the 70% controlling interest in Main Union Industrial Ltd. and its
subsidiaries (AGY Asia) and financed this consideration through the sale of additional equity to the Companys private equity sponsors.

The details of this business combination, accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, the allocation of the purchase price and the impact of AGY Asia, which has been included in our
consolidated financial statements since June 10, 2009, are presented in Note 2 to the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial
statements. In preparing our financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses included in the financial statements. Estimates are based on
historical experience and other information then currently available, the results of which form the basis of such estimates. While we believe our estimation processes are reasonable, actual results could differ from our estimates. The critical
accounting policies that affect the Companys more complex judgments and estimates are described in our 2009 Form 10-K. There were no significant changes in our accounting policies and estimates since the end of fiscal 2009.

EBITDA is generally defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is a measure used by
management to measure operating performance. EBITDA is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative (a) to net income as a measure of operating performance or (b) to cash flows from operating activities as a
measure of liquidity. Additionally, EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow available for managements discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt
service requirements. Management believes EBITDA is helpful in highlighting trends because EBITDA excludes the results of decisions that are outside the control of operating management and can differ significantly from company to company depending
on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which companies operate and capital investments. In addition, management believes that EBITDA provides more comparability between our historical results and our
recent results that reflect purchase accounting and changes in our capital structure. Management compensates for the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures by using them to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding
of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these presentations of EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to exclude unusual items and other adjustments permitted in
calculating covenant compliance and calculated in the same manner as Consolidated Cash Flow under the indenture governing our Notes, which is used by management in calculating our fixed charge coverage ratio under the indenture governing
our Notes. We believe that the inclusion of supplementary adjustments to EBITDA applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2009

Net sales.Net sales increased $3.9 million, or 9.4%, to $45.6 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2010, compared to $41.7 million during the comparable quarter of 2009. AGY Asia contributed $0.5 million of additional revenue compared to the third quarter of 2009 (after accounting for the elimination of $0.9 million of
increased intercompany sales) and reported the highest sales for that segment since the acquisition of AGY Asia, of $7.7 million, or 24.2% higher than in the third quarter of 2009 due to increased demand in the Asian electronic market supply,
increased export sales to Europe and favorable pricing. The remaining $3.4 million, or 9.5% net increase in sales generated by AGY US in the third quarter of 2010, compared to the third quarter of 2009, was primarily due to higher sales volumes and
a favorable mix, partly offset by some competitive pricing pressures. Market demand has been stable in most of the markets that we serve during the third quarter of 2010, with some softening related to seasonal influences compared to the second
quarter of 2010 but was globally 12% higher than during the third quarter of 2009 for AGY US. Aerospace sales increased by $0.8 million compared to the third quarter of 2009, or an 11.5%, increase and returned to 2008 average demand levels,
reflecting primarily increases in both aircraft retrofit and new build activity. The industrial and construction market revenues of the U.S. operating segment increased approximately $3.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The electronics
market revenues were $1.0 million below the third quarter of 2009 and the second quarter of 2010 level reflecting some traditional seasonal softening in Asian market demand. We also experienced some capacity-constrained sales for some of our
high-end electronics glassfibers as we rationalized our U.S. manufacturing footprint. Defense revenue decreased $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2010, compared to the same period of 2009 mainly as the result of price erosion while volumes were
essentially flat.

Gross profit. We
reported a consolidated gross profit of $2.9 million, or 6.5% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to a negative gross margin of $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Our AGY US segment
led most of the $5.0 million increase in profitability, while AGY Asia contributed $1.8 million of the total improvement in the third quarter of 2010. The profitability of our AGY US segment benefited from (i) $1.7 million of margin on
increased demand and on a more favorable product mix, partially offset by $0.6 million of competitive pricing pressure in certain markets, (ii) $2.3 million of higher leverage of overhead costs and (iii) improved manufacturing efficiencies
and cost reductions initiatives. These improvements were partially offset by $1.4 million of accelerated depreciation related to the optimization of our U.S. manufacturing footprint. In 2009, the AGY US segment results were also negatively impacted
by non-recurring expenses associated with managements decision to curtail production capacity and maintain lower inventory levels in order to improve liquidity.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3.9 million during the third quarter of 2010 and essentially flat with the third quarter
of 2009 level. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 9.5% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2009 to 8.6% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

Restructuring charges. In conjunction with our structural cost reduction initiatives, we recorded $0.9 million in restructuring
charges in the three months ended September 30, 2010 to further optimize the AGY US manufacturing footprint and improve profitability. These charges related primarily to the relocation of manufacturing equipment.

Other operating income. During the three months ended September 30, 2010, other operating income of $1.3 million consisted primarily
of a net $1.1 million gain recognized on the sale of alloy metals. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, other operating income was $0.1 million and consisted primarily of a $0.1 million gain recognized on the sale of excess metals.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased $0.2 million from $5.7 million for the three months ended September 30,
2009 to $5.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The increase was primarily due to an increase in AGY Asia interest expense due to higher borrowings in the third quarter of 2010 compared to 2009.

Income tax expense. Income tax benefit decreased $4.1 million from a $4.0 million tax benefit for the three months ended
September 30, 2009 to a $0.1 million tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010. During the third quarter of 2010, the Companys effective tax rate was an expense of 1.1%. This rate varied from the statutory rate of 34%
due primarily to establishment of valuation allowance during the third quarter of 2010 for domestic deferred tax assets, which are not more-likely-than-not to be realized, change in foreign valuation allowance, losses on domestic and foreign
subsidiaries with no tax benefit, and foreign rate differential. During the third quarter of 2009, the Companys effective tax rate was a benefit of 33.9%. Generally, the Company can recognize deferred tax assets for the losses incurred until
such time that the aggregate deferred tax assets exceed aggregate deferred tax liabilities that do not relate to assets with an indefinite useful life.

Net loss. As a result of the aforementioned factors including primarily restructuring and accelerated depreciation charges, and loss recognized on the sale of alloy metals in the 2010
period, we reported a net loss attributable to AGY Holding Corp. of $6.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to a net loss of $7.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The net result
attributable to the 30% noncontrolling interest in AGY Asia not owned by AGY Holding Corp. was at breakeven for the third quarter of 2010 compared to a $0.2 million loss for the comparable period in 2009.

Nine months Ended September 30, 2010 Compared to Nine months Ended September 30, 2009

Net sales. Net sales increased $26.2 million, or 23%, to $140.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to
$114.2 million for the comparable period of 2009. AGY Asia, which was acquired in June 2009, contributed $10.2 million of additional revenue (after accounting for the elimination of $2.6 million of increased intercompany sales) of which
approximately $4.4 million is due to the stronger Asian electronics demand and favorable pricing in 2010. The remaining $16.0 million, or 15.1% net increase in sales generated by AGY US for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to
the same period of 2009 was primarily due to $23.8 million of higher sales volumes, while an unfavorable product mix and competitive pricing pressures accounted for a decrease in sales of $7.8 million. We experienced increased demand in all the
markets that we serve except defense. These increases resulted primarily from the return to more normal

historical inventory levels for several of our customers. Market and global economic conditions stabilized and steadily improved over the bottom experienced during the second quarter of 2009.
Aerospace sales increased by $7.0 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and returned to 2008 average demand levels, reflecting increases in both aircraft retrofit and new build activity and some inventory restocking in
the supply chain in early 2010. The electronics, industrial and construction market revenues of the U.S operating segment increased approximately $2.8 million, $12.3 million and $5.1 million, respectively, compared to the same period in 2009.
Defense revenue decreased $11.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same period of 2009 as the result of the conclusion of the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) program during the first
quarter of 2009 and of competitive pricing pressures.

Gross profit. We reported a consolidated gross profit of $10.1
million, or 7.2% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to a negative gross margin of $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. While AGY Asia contributed $3.0 million of the improvement, our
AGY US segment drove the remaining increase in profitability of $9.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The profitability of our AGY US segment benefited from $9.6 million of margin on increased sales but was negatively
impacted $6.3 million from an unfavorable product mix associated with lower shipments to defense and competitive pricing pressure in certain markets. Additionally, the AGY US segment results were positively impacted in 2010 by improved manufacturing
efficiencies, cost reduction initiatives and higher absorption of overhead costs, partially offset by $4.1 million of accelerated depreciation related to the optimization of our U.S. manufacturing footprint. In 2009, the AGY US segment results were
negatively impacted by expenses associated with managements decision to curtail production capacity and lower inventory levels in order to improve liquidity.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative costs were $11.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and essentially flat with
the prior year level. The $1.1 million of incremental expenses associated with the AGY Asia acquisition compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were offset by $1.2 million of lower expenses for our AGY US operating segment
including a reduction in salaried workforce during 2009 and lower stock compensation charges during 2010. Selling, general and administrative costs decreased from 10.5% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 to 8.5% of net
sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Restructuring charges. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2009, we recorded $0.8 million in restructuring charges primarily related to severance and outplacement costs for headcount reductions in connection with our structural cost reduction initiatives. In conjunction with additional
actions taken in 2010 to further optimize the AGY US manufacturing footprint and improve profitability, we recorded $2.0 million in restructuring charges in the nine months ended September 30, 2010 that related primarily to the relocation of
manufacturing equipment. See further disclosures in Note 7 of our interim consolidated financial statements.

Goodwill impairment
charge. Lower than expected operating profit and cash flows and short-to-mid-term business outlook associated with the global economic environment triggered management to reassess during the second quarter of 2009 the recoverability of the
goodwill associated with the purchase of AGY by Holdings in April 2006. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the goodwill was partially impaired and recognized a non-cash, pre-tax goodwill impairment charge of $44.5 million, classified in
loss from operations during the second quarter of 2009. See further disclosures in Note 6 of our interim consolidated financial statements.

Other operating expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, other operating expense of $1.8 million was primarily due to $2.6 million of AGY Asia acquisition-related
costs, including $1.1 million of costs incurred and deferred at December 31, 2008 that were subsequently expensed on January 1, 2009 as a result of adopting ASC 805. These costs were partially offset by a $0.5 million gain recognized on
the sale of alloy metals. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, other operating expense of $1.1 million consisted primarily of a net $1.6 million loss recognized on the sale of alloy metals.

Other non-operating income. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, other non-operating income consisted primarily of the net
$1.1 million gain on the early extinguishment of debt associated with the purchase of $3 million (face value) of our Notes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, other non-operating income was not significant.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased $1.6 million from $16.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 to
$17.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The increase was primarily due to incremental interest expense associated with the AGY Asia acquisition.

Gain on bargain purchase. Management concluded, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation specialist, that the fair value of the acquired assets exceeded the liabilities
assumed associated with the AGY Asia acquisition, and that a bargain purchase of approximately $20.4 million resulted at the June 10,

2009 acquisition date. See further disclosures in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2009 on our 2009 Form 10-K. However, based on the
preliminary assessment of the fair value of the acquired assets less liabilities, the Company recognized initially a $22.5 million gain as a component of non-operating income during the second quarter of 2009.

Income tax benefit. Income tax benefit decreased $6.1 million from a $11.6 million tax benefit for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 to a $5.5 million tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, our effective tax rate was a benefit of 23.7%. This rate varied from the statutory rate of
34% due primarily to establishment of valuation allowance during the third quarter of 2010 for domestic deferred tax assets, which are not more-likely-than-not to be realized, change in foreign valuation allowance, losses on domestic and foreign
subsidiaries with no tax benefit, and foreign rate differential. Generally, the Company can recognize deferred tax assets for the losses incurred until such time that the aggregate deferred tax assets exceed aggregate deferred tax liabilities that
do not relate to assets with an indefinite useful life. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, our effective tax rate was a benefit of 21.3%. This rate varied from the statutory rate of 34% due primarily to higher pre-tax losses
recognized in 2009, a goodwill impairment charge not deductible for tax, a nontaxable gain in connection with the bargain purchase related to the AGY Asia acquisition, and transactional costs associated with the AGY Asia acquisition that were
expensed during 2009 but not deductible for tax, which benefits were partially offset by state taxes.

Net loss. As a
result of the aforementioned factors including primarily restructuring and accelerated depreciation charges, and loss recognized on the sale of alloy metals in the 2010 period and significant nonrecurring non cash net charges (goodwill
impairment charge; gain on bargain purchase) in the 2009 period, we reported a net loss attributable to AGY Holding Corp. of $17.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to a net loss of $42.7 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009. The net loss attributable to the 30% noncontrolling interest in AGY Asia not owned by AGY Holding Corp. was $0.4 million for each of the first nine months of 2010 and 2009.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

AGY Holding Corp. and its Domestic Subsidiaries Liquidity

In the first nine months of 2010 our principal sources of domestic liquidity were borrowings under our financing arrangements, proceeds from monetization of our excess alloy metals and our cash on hand.
Our domestic need for liquidity arises primarily from interest payments on the outstanding $172.0 million principal amount of our Notes, interest and principal payments on our senior secured revolving credit facility (Credit Facility),
the funding of capital expenditures, alloy metals, strategic initiatives, normal recurring operating expenses and working capital requirements and the financing of the consideration to be paid pursuant to the put/call agreement for our 30%
noncontrolling interest in AGY Asia not owned by us. There are no mandatory payments of principal on the Credit Facility or on the Notes scheduled prior to their maturity in October 2011 and November 2014, respectively.

At September 30, 2010, AGY US had total liquidity of $22.5 million, consisting of $1.6 million in unrestricted cash and approximately $20.9 million
of borrowing availability under the Credit Facility.

AGY Asias Liquidity

AGY Asias sources of liquidity have been, since the acquisition of AGY Asia, borrowings under approximately $53.0 million of non-recourse financing
arrangements with the Bank of Shanghai (AGY Asia Credit Facility), which consists of an $11.9 million one-year working capital loan and a $41.1 million five-year term loan. AGY Asias need for liquidity arises primarily from
interest and principal payments on the AGY Asia Credit Facility and the funding of capital expenditures, alloy metals, strategic initiatives, normal recurring operating expenses and working capital requirements. There are no mandatory payments of
principal on the working capital loan prior to its maturity in June 2011.

At September 30, 2010, AGY Asia had total liquidity of $9.5
million, consisting of $3.6 million of unrestricted cash and approximately $5.9 million of borrowing availability under the AGY Asia Credit Facility.

Based upon our current and anticipated levels of operations, we believe, but cannot guarantee, that our cash flows from operations and from the monetization of excess alloy metals, together with
availability under our credit facilities for our US and Asian segments, will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months. We have begun discussions with the AGY Asia lender to revise the term amortization schedule. However,
these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. See Forward-Looking Statements and Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2009 Form 10-K.

##### Table of Contents



Working capital.

The Company has historically defined working capital as total current assets, excluding unrestricted cash, less total current liabilities,
including short-term borrowings and the current portion of long-term debt. Working capital was $13.2 million and $15.3 million on September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The $2.1 million net decrease was primarily due to a
$2.3 million increase in trade receivables resulting from the increase in sales for the third quarter of 2010 compared to 2009 and a $1.1 million decrease in accrued liabilities and trade payables. These working capital increases were partially
offset by a $3.2 million increase in AGY Asia short-term borrowings to support working capital, a $1.7 million increase in current portion of long term debt for AGY Asia, a $0.2 million reduction in inventories, and a $0.4 million decrease in
deferred taxes.

Other balance sheet items.

Net Property, Plant and Equipment and Alloy Metals. Net property, plant and equipment and alloy metals decreased $24.6 million from December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010, primarily due
to $21.6 million of depreciation and alloy metals depletion expenses and the sale of $12.3 million of excess alloy metals at book value for proceeds of $10.7 million. We made $6.9 million of capital expenditures, including accrued construction in
progress, and AGY Asia acquired $0.7 million of alloy metals and had $1.6 million of currency translation and other adjustments.

Long Term
Debt.Long-term debt decreased $5.0 million from December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010 as a result of a $4.1 million decrease in borrowings under our AGY US operating segment credit facility and the reclassification of $1.7 million
of AGY Asias long-term debt to current, partly offset by a $0.8 million increase in AGY Asia borrowings.

Nine months
ended September 30, 2010 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2009.

Cash flows from operating
activities

Cash used by operating activities was $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $9.5
million used during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The $8.9 million decrease in cash used by operating activities is attributed to a $19.0 million decrease in net losses (as adjusted for non-cash items) during the comparable periods,
reduced in part by a decrease of $10.1 million of operating cash provided by working capital, primarily from a $13.1 million decrease in cash provided by inventory reductions and a $2.1 million increase in cash provided by reductions in trade
accounts receivable.

Cash flow from investing activities

Cash provided by investing activities was $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to cash used in investing activities of
$4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The $7.2 million improvement in cash provided by investing activities was principally attributable to the $18.2 million investment in AGY Asia, partly reduced by the $13.1 million
decrease in restricted cash related to the investment, which occurred in the first nine months of 2009 and was not recurring in the comparable period of 2010. We also experienced a $3.2 million reduction in capital spending, partly offset by a $0.4
million decrease in proceeds from excess alloy sales in the US operating segment and a $0.7 million increase in alloy purchases by AGY Asia.

Cash flow from financing activities

Cash used in financing activities was $0.9
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to cash provided by financing activities of $10.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The $11.7 million decrease was attributable to the AGY Asia investment
in 2009 consisting of a $20.0 million equity infusion by Kohlberg & Company, LLC to fund the acquisition, partly offset by a $12.3 million shareholder loan repayment, which were not recurring in 2010, as well as a $5.4 million decrease in
US revolver borrowings and a $0.4 million decrease in AGY Asia bank loans. These were partly offset by the $1.8 million cash outflow for the repurchase of $3.0 million of Notes (face value) in the nine months ending September 30, 2009 that was
not recurring in the comparable period of 2010.

Indebtedness

AGY US

Our $40
million Credit Facility has a term of 60 months (maturing October 2011) and includes sub-limits for the issuance of letters of credit and swing line loans. The borrowing base for our Credit Facility is equal to the sum of: (i) an advance rate
against eligible accounts receivable of up to 90%, plus (ii) the lesser of (A) 65% of the book value of our eligible inventory (valued at the lower of cost or market) and (B) 85% of the net orderly



31

##### Table of Contents

liquidation value for our eligible inventory, plus (iii) up to $32.5 million of our eligible alloy inventory, minus (iv) 100% of mark-to-market risk on certain interest hedging
arrangements, minus (v) a reserve of $10.0 million.

At our option, loans under our Credit Facility bear interest based on either the
Eurodollar rate or base rate (a rate equal to the greater of the corporate base rate of interest established by the administrative agent from time to time, and the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%) plus, in each case, an applicable margin.
Generally, the applicable margin is expected to be 1.75% in the case of Eurodollar rate loans and 0.75% in the case of base rate loans. The interest rate for borrowings over $25.0 million is 3.0% for Eurodollar rate loans and 2.0% for base rate
loans.

In addition, we pay customary commitment fees and letter of credit fees under the Credit Facility. All obligations under the Credit
Facility are guaranteed by Holdings and all of our existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. We may enter into swap agreements from time to time to reduce the risk of greater interest expense because of interest-rate
fluctuations. Our and the guarantors obligations under the Credit Facility are secured, subject to permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions, by a first-priority perfected (subject to customary exceptions) security interest in
substantially all of our and the guarantors assets.

The Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties and customary
affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and consolidations, dividends and other payments in respect to capital stock, transactions with affiliates, and optional
payments and modifications of subordinated and other debt instruments. The Credit Facility does not contain any financial maintenance covenants. The Credit Facility also includes customary events of default, including a default upon a change of
control. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants at September 30, 2010.

The agreement governing the Credit Facility
permits the lenders to accelerate payment of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest and/or to terminate their commitment to lend any additional amounts upon certain events of default, including failure to make required payments of
principal and interest when due, violations of the material covenants under the agreement, a change of control of the Company, certain defaults with respect to the collateral securing the credit facility or if the Company fails to pay indebtedness
owing to other parties, or lenders under other agreements accelerate payment of the indebtedness owing, in an aggregate amount of $7.5 million or more.

As of September 30, 2010, we had utilized approximately $2.4 million of the Credit Facility for the issuance of standby letters of credit and had $15.2 million cash borrowings outstanding, leaving
$20.9 million available for additional borrowings after giving effect to the total borrowing base.

In connection with our acquisition of a
70% interest in AGY Hong Kong Ltd., as described in our 2009 Form 10-K, we amended our credit agreement to obtain the necessary approval of the revolving credit lenders. In the amendment, certain provisions of the credit agreement were modified or
added including provisions providing that: the availability reserve in the borrowing base calculation increased from $7.5 million to $10 million; the foreign subsidiary indebtedness of AGY Hong Kong Ltd. or its subsidiaries is permitted provided
that it is non-recourse indebtedness; the investment associated with the purchase of the remaining 30% is permitted provided that our excess availability under the facility is at least $10 million for 60 days prior to the consummation date and $12.5
million immediately following such consummation; and it is an event of default under the credit agreement if we default under our obligations regarding the acquisition of the remaining 30% of AGY Hong Kong Ltd. In addition, the applicable margin for
any utilization of the revolver in excess of $25 million increased from 1.75% to 3.0% for Eurodollar loans and from 0.75% to 2.0% for base rate loans. No other material terms of the credit agreement were modified under the amendment.

In connection with our refinancing on October 25, 2006, we issued $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 11% senior second lien notes
(Old Notes) to an initial purchaser, which were subsequently resold to qualified institutional buyers and non-U.S. persons in reliance upon Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We consummated an
exchange offer of the Old Notes for the Notes in September 2008. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year. Our obligations under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and
severally, on a second-priority basis, by each of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries, other than immaterial subsidiaries, that guarantee our indebtedness, including our new Credit Facility, or the indebtedness of any of our restricted
subsidiaries. The indenture does not allow us to pay dividends or distributions on our outstanding capital stock (including to our parent) and limits or restricts our ability to incur additional debt, repurchase securities, make certain prohibited
investments, create liens, transfer or sell assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, issue or

sell stock of a subsidiary or merge or consolidate. The indenture permits the trustee or the holders of 25% or more of the Notes to accelerate payment of the outstanding principal and accrued and
unpaid interest upon certain events of default, including failure to make required payments of principal and interest when due, uncured violations of the material covenants under the indenture or if lenders accelerate payment of the outstanding
principal and accrued and unpaid interest due to an event of default with respect to at least $15.0 million of our other debt, such as our Credit Facility.

The indenture does not contain any financial maintenance covenants.

In February 2009, we
repurchased $3.0 million face amount of Notes for $1.8 million plus accrued interest and commissions, resulting in a net gain on extinguishment of debt of approximately $1.1 million (net of deferred financing fees written off), classified as
other non-operating income.

As of September 30, 2010, the estimated fair value of the Notes was $147.1 million compared to a
recorded book value of $172 million.

AGY Asia

The bank debt of approximately $39.0 million assumed in the acquisition of AGY Asia was refinanced as discussed below. On July 10, 2009, AGY Asia entered into the AGY Asia Credit Facility. On
June 8, 2010, a portion of the USD loan commitment was exchanged for RMB commitment under both the project loan and the working capital loan. The arrangement now consists of a five-year term loan that matures in June 2014 in the aggregate
amount of approximately $41.1 million (consisting of a USD 8.0 million loan and an RMB 222.2 million loan or approximately $33.2 million converted at an exchange rate of RMB 6.70 to 1 U.S. dollar), a one-year working capital loan in the
aggregate amount of approximately $11.9 million (consisting of a USD 3.0 million loan and an RMB 59.5 million loan or approximately USD 8.9 million converted at an exchange rate of RMB 6.70 to 1 U.S. dollar) and a one-year letter of
credit facility in the amount of $2 million. As discussed above, proceeds from the loans were used principally to repay the $37.6 million of loans outstanding at the time of the refinancing under AGY Asias prior credit agreements.

The term loan is secured by AGY Asias building, alloy metals and equipment and bears interest annually at the rate of either the five-year lending
rate as published by the Peoples Bank of China, plus a margin, or six-month LIBOR plus 3.0%. At September 30, 2010, the Company had approximately $36.3 million of borrowings outstanding under the term loan, consisting of a local currency
loan of RMB 198,500,000, or approximately $29.6 million converted at an exchange rate of 6.7 RMB to 1 U.S. dollar, and a U.S.-dollar-denominated loan of $6.7 million.

The working capital loan facility is secured by equipment, assets and alloy metals acquired by AGY Asia and bears interest annually at the rate of either the one-year lending rate as published by the
Peoples Bank of China, or three-month LIBOR plus 3.0%.

At September 30, 2010, we had approximately $8.8 million of borrowings
outstanding under the working capital loan consisting of a local currency loan of RMB 45,750,000, or approximately $6.8 million converted at an exchange rate of 6.7 RMB to 1 U.S. dollar, and a U.S.-dollar-denominated loan of $2.0 million.

The letter of credit facility is a one-year facility for the issuance of documentary letters of credit up to a maximum term of 120 days. A
15% deposit is required upon issuance with the balance due upon settlement of the underlying obligation.

On June 8, 2010, the working
capital loan and letter of credit facility were renewed for a one-year term to June 2011.

The loan agreements contain customary
representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, interest coverage, debt-to-assets ratio, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and consolidations, dividends and
other payments in respect to capital stock, and transactions with affiliates. The loan agreements also include customary events of default, including a default upon a change of control. AGY Asia was in compliance with all such covenants at
September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

All amounts borrowed under the AGY Asia Credit Facility are non-recourse to AGY and its
domestic subsidiaries.

FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS

There are no mandatory payments of principal on the Credit Facility or on the Notes scheduled prior to their maturity in October 2011 and November 2014,
respectively.

The AGY Asia Credit Facility, which is a non-recourse debt to AGY Holding Corp., includes an $11.9 million working capital loan
facility when fully drawn that matures in June 2011 and a five-year term loan with principal payments due semi-annually beginning April 2010 in accordance with the following amortization schedule when the term loan is fully drawn (in $ millions):



|     |  |   |      |

|     |  |   |      | 

We are obligated to make approximately $0.8 million minimum purchases of marbles from Chinese marble producers during the
remainder of 2010.

We also have several short-term operating leases for alloy metals. At September 30, 2010, we leased in our AGY US
segment approximately 41,300 ounces of platinum and 2,600 ounces of rhodium under the Deutsche Bank Master Lease Agreement, with a notional value of approximately $60.3 million and $6.1 million, respectively. All of the leases outstanding at
September 30, 2010 had initial terms of two to twelve months, maturing no later than October 11, 2011 (with future minimum rentals of approximately $2.1 million until maturity in October 2011).

We also have various operating leases for certain manufacturing equipment, personal and real property.

As discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, in connection with the purchase of AGY Asia, we entered
into an option agreement with Grace pursuant to which Grace granted AGY a call option and AGY granted Grace a put option in respect of the 30% interest held by Grace in AGY Asia, in each case until December 31, 2013, unless mutually extended.
The option price is determined by a formula outlined in the agreement. The exercise of the call option requires certain minimum financial performance levels to be reached by AGY Asia and the put option became exercisable in June 2010. As of
September 30, 2010 the redemption amount of put option was $6.0 million compared to an initial carrying value of $12.4 million. Based on these provisions and the financial projections of the PRC affiliate, the Company believes that either the
call option or the put option will be exercised in 2011. If the acquisition of the noncontrolling interest is consummated, the Company intends to finance the consideration paid pursuant to the agreement through the sale of additional equity to its
private equity sponsor, if available, or other available liquidity.

30% noncontrolling interest in AGY Asia; the loss of key members of our management; an inability or failure to comply with environmental, health or safety laws and regulations; our limited history of profitable operations since our emergence from
Chapter 11 protection on April 2, 2004; our substantial indebtedness; and certain covenants in our debt documents.

We do not have any
intention or obligation to update forward-looking statements included in this managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

INTEREST RATE RISK

We are subject to
interest rate risk in connection with our short- and long-term debt. Our principal interest rate exposures relate to the AGY US $40 million senior secured revolving credit facility and our AGY Asia credit facility. Assuming the AGY US revolver is
fully drawn, each 100 basis point change in interest rates would result in approximately a $0.4 million change in annual interest expense on our revolving credit facility. Assuming the AGY Asia credit facility is fully drawn, each 100 basis point
change in interest rates would result in approximately a $0.5 million change in annual interest expense for AGY Asia.

NATURAL GAS COMMODITY RISK AND
PLATINUM/RHODIUM RISK

Due to the nature of our manufacturing operations, we are exposed
to risks due to changes in natural gas commodity prices. We may utilize derivative financial instruments in order to reduce some of the variability of the cash flows associated with our forecasted purchases of natural gas. In addition, because we
use bushings made with a platinum-rhodium alloy as part of our manufacturing process, we are exposed to risks due to changes in the prices and lease rates of these metals.

At September 30, 2010, we had existing contracts for physical delivery of natural gas at our Aiken, SC facility that fix the commodity cost of natural gas for approximately 70 percent of our 2010
requirements and 50 percent of our January through August 2011 requirements for the estimated natural gas purchases of the AGY US operating segment. Although these contracts are considered derivative instruments, they meet the normal purchases
exclusion contained in ASC 815, and are, therefore, exempted from the related accounting requirements.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK

We are subject to inherent risks attributed to operating in a global economy. For AGY US, all of our debt and most of our costs are denominated in US dollars. Approximately 4% percent of our sales are
denominated in currencies other than the US dollar. Although our level of foreign currency exposure is limited, we may utilize derivative financial instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risks.

Approximately 20% of the debt of our subsidiary, AGY Asia, is denominated in U.S. dollars, with the balance denominated in Chinese RMB. In addition,
approximately 86% of the sales of AGY Asia are denominated in U.S. dollars, while approximately 79% of its costs are denominated in Chinese RMB.

At September 30, 2010, we had no foreign currency hedging agreements in effect.

We may be
exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other parties to the derivative financial instruments. We mitigate this risk by entering into agreements directly with counterparties that meet our credit standards and that we expect to
fully satisfy their contractual obligations. We view derivative financial instruments purely as a risk management tool and, therefore, do not use them for speculative trading purposes.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND ECONOMIC TRENDS

Historically, inflation has not had a material effect on our results of operations, as we have been able to offset most of the impact
of inflation through price increases for our products. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to offset any future price increases in energy, commodities and precious metals through price increases to our customers.

ITEM 4.  Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, the Companys Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have conducted an evaluation of the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation, the Companys Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable Securities and
Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the Companys Principal Executive Officer and the Companys Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Companys management, including
the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer concluded no
such changes during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
