    TO
THE

    HARSCO
CORPORATION

    1995
NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS' STOCK PLAN

    

    Harsco Corporation hereby adopts this
Amendment No. 1 to the Harsco Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Plan (As
Amended and Restated January 27, 2004) (the “Plan”), effective as of December
31, 2008.  Words and phrases used herein with initial capital letters
that are defined in the Plan are used herein as so defined.

    

    I.

     

    The last
two sentences of Section 7(a) of the Plan are hereby amended to read as
follows:

     

    “Such
Restricted Stock Units shall be settled as promptly as practicable following the
Participant’s separation from service, but in no event more than 60 days after
such separation from service.  No acceleration of the settlement will
be permitted. ”

     

    II.

     

    Section
8(a) of the Plan is hereby amended in its entirety to read as
follows:

     

    “(a)  Elections.  Each
director who elects to receive fees in the form of Stock (the 'Stock Election')
or defer fees in the form of Deferred Stock earned during any calendar year (the
'Deferral Election', and together with the Stock Election, the 'Elections') must
file an irrevocable written Election with the Secretary of the Company no later
than December 31 of the preceding year.  A newly-appointed director
shall be eligible to file an Election with the Secretary of the Company not
later than 30 days of his or her appointment to the Board of Directors and any
such Deferral Election shall be effective only with regard to the amount of fees
earned during the calendar year following the filing of the Deferral Election as
determined pursuant to the pro-ration method permitted under Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the 'Code').   The
Elections made pursuant to this Section 8(a) shall be irrevocable with respect
to those fees to which such Elections pertain and shall also apply to fees
payable in future calendar years unless the director terminates or modifies such
Election with respect to a future calendar year by filing a new Election before
the first day of the calendar year with respect to which the Election is to
become effective.  Such new Election shall likewise continue in effect
and apply to future calendar years until similarly changed.  The
Elections must specify the following:

     

    
      	
              (i)  

            	
              A
      percentage, not to exceed an aggregate of 100% of the Participant’s fees,
      to be received in the form of Stock or deferred in the form of Deferred
      Stock under the Plan;

            

    

     

    
      	
              (ii)  

            	
              In
      the case of a Deferral Election and to the extent permitted by the Board
      according to Section 9(a), whether dividend equivalents on Deferred Stock
      credited to the Participant’s deferral account will be paid directly to
      the Participant in cash or credited to his or her deferral account in cash
      or deemed to be reinvested in additional Deferred Stock;
    and

            

    

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    
      	
              (iii)  

            	
              On
      his or her Deferral Election, the Participant shall also make a payment
      election (the 'Payment Election') with respect to the deferred amounts
      subject to such Deferral Election by specifying the time period permitted
      under Section 409A of the Code during which the settlement of the Deferred
      Stock will be deferred.  A Participant's Payment Election shall
      also specify the form of payment permitted under Section 409A elected by
      the Participant with respect to the Deferred
  Stock.

            

    

     

    In the
event directors’ fees are increased during any year, a Participant’s elections
in effect for such year will apply to the amount of such increase.
”

     

    III.

     

    The last
sentence of Section 9(a) of the Plan is hereby amended in its entirety to read
as follows:

     

    “To the
extent pemitted under Section 409A of the Code, the Secretary may, in his
discretion, delay the timing of any conversion of dividend equivalents into
additional Restricted Stock Units or Deferred Stock in order that such
transactions take place at the same time as other transactions reportable under
Section 16 of the Exchange Act, to promote administrative efficiency in filing
Form 4s with the Securities and Exchange Commission.”

     

    IV.

     

    Section
10 of the Plan is hereby amended by adding the following new sentence at the end
thereof:

     

    “Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no adjustments shall be made under this Section 10: (a) with
respect to awards that are considered ‘deferred compensation’ within the meaning
of Section 409A of the Code unless such adjustments are made in compliance with
the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and (b) with respect to awards
that are not considered ‘deferred compensation’ subject to Section 409A of the
Code to the extent that such adjustments would cause such awards to be subject
to Section 409A of the Code.”

     

    V.

    

    The Plan is hereby amended by inserting
the following new Section 14 immediately after Section 13 thereof:

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     “14.   Compliance with Section 409A of the
Code.

     

    (a) To the
extent applicable, it is intended that this Plan and any awards granted
hereunder comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, so that the
income inclusion provisions of Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code do not apply to
the Participants.  This Plan and any awards granted hereunder shall be
administered in a manner consistent with this intent.  Any reference
in this Plan to Section 409A of the Code will also include any regulations or
any other formal guidance promulgated with respect to such Section by the U.S.
Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service.

     

    (b) Neither a
Participant nor any of a Participant’s creditors or beneficiaries shall have the
right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A
of the Code) payable under this Plan and awards granted hereunder to any
anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance,
attachment or garnishment.  Except as permitted under Section 409A of
the Code, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the
Code) payable to a Participant or for a Participant’s benefit under this Plan
and awards granted hereunder (i) may not be reduced by, or offset against, any
amount owing by a Participant to the Company or any of its affiliates and (ii)
may not be substituted or replaced by any amount payable by the Company or any
of its affiliates to a Participant or for a Participant’s benefit under this
Plan or otherwise.  Any Participant elections to defer the payment of
awards under the Plan shall be made in compliance with the requirements of
Section 409A of the Code.

     

    (c) For
purposes of the Plan, 'separation from service' shall mean a separation from
service (within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) or any successor provisions) with the Company and
any member of its controlled group.

     

    (d) If, at
the time of a Participant’s separation from service, (i) the Participant shall
be a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and as
determined pursuant to procedures adopted by the Company in compliance with
Section 409A of the Code), and (ii) the Company shall make a good faith
determination that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation
(within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) the payment of which is
required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section
409A of the Code in order to avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the
Code, then the Company shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled
payment date but shall instead pay it on the first business day of the seventh
month following such separation from service.

     

    (e) Notwithstanding
any provision of this Plan and awards granted hereunder to the contrary, in
light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A
of the Code, the Company reserves the right to make amendments to this Plan and
grants hereunder as the Company deems necessary to avoid the imposition of taxes
or penalties under Section 409A of the Code.”

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    

     

    EXECUTED effective as of December 31,
2008.

    Establishment of
Plan

     

    
      	
              1.1  

            	
              Purpose.  The
      Harsco Non-Qualified Retirement Savings & Investment Plan (“Plan” or
      “NQRSIP”) was established by Harsco Corporation (“Corporation”) to
      compensate participating employees for government-imposed reductions in
      benefits from and/or contributions to the tax-qualified Harsco Retirement
      Savings & Investment Plan (“RSIP”) in which they
      participate.

            

    

     

    
      	
              1.2  

            	
              Tax/ERISA.  The
      Corporation intends that the Plan shall at all times be maintained on an
      unfunded basis for federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue
      Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), and administered as a “top-hat” plan
      exempt from the substantive requirements of the Employee Retirement Income
      Security Act of 1974, as amended
(“ERISA”).

            

    

     

    
      	
              1.3  

            	
              2009 Amendment and
      Restatement. The Plan was adopted as of January 1,
      2004.  The Plan is hereby again amended and restated effective
      as of January 1, 2009 by the adoption of Part B of the Plan, as set forth
      herein.  Part A of the Plan, consisting of the January 1, 2004
      Plan document, applies to compensation that was Deferred during calendar
      years ending prior to January 1, 2005 and which had become vested prior to
      said date, in accordance with the terms of those documents in effect from
      time to time prior to October 3, 2004.  The provisions of this
      Part B shall apply to compensation that is Deferred during calendar years
      beginning on or after January 1, 2005, or that was previously Deferred but
      not vested prior to said date.  This Part B of the Plan is
      intended to meet all of the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, so
      that Participants will be eligible to defer the receipt of, and the
      liability for the federal income tax with respect to, certain items of
      compensation from one year to a later year in accordance with the
      provisions of applicable law and the provisions of the
      Plan.  With respect to compensation that was deferred during the
      2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 calendar years, or that was Deferred prior to
      January 1, 2005 but became vested during the period January 1, 2005
      through December 31, 2008, the terms of the Plan shall be administered in
      accordance with a reasonable, good faith interpretation of Code Section
      409A, and such interpretation shall govern the rights of a Participant
      with respect to that period of
time.

              Account.  The
      sum of the Corporation contributions and the investment returns thereon
      allocated to each Participant under this Plan in accordance with the
      provisions of Article IV.  A Participant’s Account will be
      divided into the following subaccounts:  (a) a “Pre-2005
      Subaccount” for amounts Deferred by a Participant and vested for purposes
      of Code Section 409A as of December 31, 2004 (and earnings and losses
      thereon), and (b) a “Post-2004 Subaccount” for amounts Deferred by a
      Participant and/or vested for purposes of Code Section 409A after December
      31, 2004 (and earnings and losses thereon).  Amounts in the
      Pre-2005 Subaccounts, which are intended to qualify for “grandfathered”
      status, shall be subject to the terms and conditions specified in Part A
      of the Plan as in effect on or before October 3, 2004.  The

      Acquisition.  Any “person” [as such term is used in
      Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“the

      the Corporation’s shareholders of each new director was approved by a vote
      of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who were
      directors at the beginning of the period.  Such a Change in
      Board shall be deemed to have occurred on the date upon which the

      the Corporation.

      majority of the outside members of the Board of Directors of the
      Corporation to constitute a Change in Control of the Corporation for
      purposes of this Plan.  Such a Change in Control shall be deemed
      to have occurred on the date of such determination or on such other date
      as such majority of outside members of the Board shall
      specify.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.5(d)
      shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with Code Section 409A and

              2.15  

            	
              Separation from
      Service.  The condition that exists when an employee who
      is a Participant in the Plan and the Corporation reasonably anticipate
      that no further services will be performed after a certain date or that
      the level of bona fide services that the employee will perform after such
      date (whether as an employee or an independent contractor) would
      permanently decrease to no more than 20% of the average level of bona fide
      services performed (whether as an employee or an independent contractor)
      over the immediately preceding 36-month period (or the full period of
      services to the Corporation if the employee has been providing services to
      the Corporation for less than 36 months).  For purposes of this
      Section 2.15, for periods during which an employee is on a paid bona fide
      leave of absence and has not otherwise experienced a Separation from
      Service, the employee is treated as providing bona fide services at the
      level equal to the level of services that the employee would have been
      required to perform to receive the compensation paid with respect to such
      leave of absence.  Periods during which an employee is on an
      unpaid bona fide leave of absence and has not otherwise experienced a
      Separation from Service are disregarded for purposes of this Section 2.15
      (including for purposes of determining the applicable 36-month (or
      shorter) period).  For purposes of this Section 2.15, the
      “Corporation” shall be considered to include all members of the controlled
      group of corporations, trades or businesses which includes the
      Corporation; provided, however, that in applying Code Section 414(b), the
      phrase “at least 50 percent” shall be substituted for “at least 80
      percent”; and in applying Code Section 414(c), the phrase “at least 50
      percent” shall be used instead of the phrase “at least 80
      percent.”  Separation from Service shall be determined on the
      basis of the modifications described in Treasury Regulation Section
      1.409A-1(h)(3) (or any successor regulation)) as defined in Code Section
      409A and the regulations or other guidance issued
    thereunder.

              Valuation

              NQRSIP
      Benefit.  Due to the limitations contained in Code
      Section 401(a)(17), a Participant is not able to receive Corporation
      matching contributions or Corporation discretionary contributions in the
      RSIP on Compensation in excess of the Code Section 401(a)(17) limit
      ($245,000 in 2009).  To make up for this limitation, the
      Corporation will contribute to this Plan an amount equal to 4% of a
      Participant’s Compensation in excess of the limitation contained in Code
      Section 401(a)(17) and make Corporation discretionary contributions to
      this Plan in a percentage equal to the percentage of discretionary
      contribution in the RSIP for the same period, if any, on the Participant’s
      Compensation in excess of the Code Section 401(a)(17)
    limit.

              Allocation of NQRSIP
      Benefit.  As of each Valuation Date, the Corporation will
      determine the amount of the contribution (Corporation’s matching
      contributions and discretionary contributions) due to each Participant and
      allocate that amount to each Participant’s Post-2004
      Subaccount.  For purposes of determining the income to be
      allocated to the Post-2004 Subaccount, the amount will be treated as if it
      is allocated to the same investment funds for the Corporation’s matching
      contributions and discretionary contributions that the Participant
      selected for the tax-qualified
RSIP.

              Valuation of
      Participant’s Post-2004 Subaccount.  As of each Valuation
      Date, a Participant’s Post-2004 Subaccount shall consist of the balance of
      the Post-2004 Subaccount as of the immediately preceding Valuation Date,
      plus the NQRSIP contribution credited for the quarter pursuant to Section
      4.1 plus adjustments for changes in the market value of the Participant’s
      elected investment fund, including any dividends that would have been
      payable on Harsco stock, that would have been purchased by the
      Corporation’s matching and/or discretionary contributions and credited to
      the RSIP on behalf of the Participant, but for the Code or ERISA
      limitations.

      Post-2004 Subaccount shall be increased or decreased, as applicable, by
      the investment return since the immediately preceding Valuation
      Date.  Investment return shall be credited at the investment
      return rate adjusted for any contributions, to be credited for such
      period.  Investment return for the period shall reflect the
      actual investment rate earned for the deemed investment elected by the
      Participant under the RSIP.  Until a Participant or his or her
      Beneficiary receives a distribution of his or her Post-2004 Subaccount,
      the unpaid balance shall be adjusted for the investment
      return.

              No Right of
      Employment.  Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to grant
      a Participant any rights other than those specifically outlined in the

      encumber in advance any of the payments that may become due hereunder; nor
      shall any such payments be subject to attachment, garnishment or

      Status.  Any provision for payments hereunder shall be by
      means of bookkeeping entries on the books of the Corporation and shall not
      create in the Participant or his or her Beneficiary any right to, or claim
      against any specific assets of the Corporation, nor result in the creation
      of any trust or escrow account for the Participant or
      Beneficiary.  A Participant or Beneficiary entitled to any
      payment of benefits hereunder shall be a general creditor of the

      cause, all benefits hereunder shall be forfeited and the Corporation shall
      have no further obligation to the Participant (or his or her Beneficiary)
      hereunder.  For purposes of this Plan, “cause” means (i) an act
      or acts of personal dishonesty taken by the Participant and intended to
      result in substantial personal enrichment of the Participant at the
      expense of the Corporation, (ii) repeated violations by the Participant of
      the Participant’s obligations under the Participant’s employment agreement
      where applicable which are demonstrably willful and deliberate on the
      Participant’s part and which are not remedied in a reasonable period of
      time after receipt of written notice from the Corporation or (iii) the
      conviction of the Participant of a
felony.

      proposed, temporary or final regulation, or any other guidance,

      interpretations, one of which results in the compliance of the Plan with
      Code Section 409A and the applicable Treasury Regulations, and one of
      which does not, then the provision shall be given the interpretation that
      results in compliance with Code Section 409A and the applicable Treasury
      Regulations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other
      provision of this Plan to the contrary, neither the Corporation nor any of
      its subsidiaries or affiliates shall be deemed to guarantee any particular
      tax result for any Participant, spouse, or beneficiary with respect to any
      payments provided hereunder.
