Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

As part of its efforts to reduce costs across Harsco Corporation (the “Company”) in recognition of current market conditions and consistent with the Company’s decision to explore strategic options for the separation of its Metals & Minerals segment from its Industrial and Rail segments, on February 24, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) unanimously agreed to reduce both its size and its director compensation. In that connection, the Board voted to reduce its size from ten to eight members effective as of the Company’s upcoming 2016 annual stockholders meeting. Henry W. Knueppel and James M. Loree have agreed not to stand for re-election at the 2016 annual stockholders meeting. Each of their respective terms will end on April 25, 2016. In addition, the Board has determined that, effective as of April 26, 2016, the annual cash retainers paid to non-employee directors for their service on the Board and its committees will be reduced by 10%.
