Explanatory Note

On November 26, 2013, Harsco Corporation (the "Company") filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the "Original Report") to disclose that the Company consummated the previously announced transaction to sell the Company’s Harsco Infrastructure Segment into a strategic venture with Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (“CD&R”) as part of a transaction that combines the Harsco Infrastructure Segment with Brand Energy & Infrastructure Services, Inc., which CD&R simultaneously acquired (the “Infrastructure Transaction”). The Original Report also included unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information showing the effects of the Infrastructure Transaction. The Company is amending the Original Report by filing this Current Report on Form 8-K/A in response to comments from the Securities and Exchange Commission to amend and restate the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information included in the Original Report.

Item 2.01.
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On November 26, 2013, the Company consummated the Infrastructure Transaction. The Company has contributed substantially all of the Company’s equity interests in, and the net assets of, the Harsco Infrastructure Segment to the strategic venture in exchange for $300 million in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments, and an approximate 29% equity interest in the strategic venture. The Company’s approximate 29% equity interest in the strategic venture will be accounted for under the equity method of accounting as prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Under the terms of a limited partnership agreement (the "Partnership Agreement") that governs the operation of the strategic venture, the Company is required to make quarterly payments, effectively to CD&R either (at the Company's election) (i) in cash, with total payments to equal approximately $22 million per year on a pre-tax basis (approximately $15 million per year after tax), or (ii) in kind through the transfer of approximately 2.5% of the Company’s equity interest in the strategic venture to CD&R on an annual basis. The Company’s obligation to make such quarterly payments under the Partnership Agreement will cease upon the earlier of (i) the strategic venture achieving $479 million in last twelve months’ earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for three quarters, which need not be consecutive, and (ii) eight years after the closing of the Infrastructure Transaction. In addition, upon the initial public offering of the strategic venture, the Company’s quarterly payment obligation will decrease by the portion of CD&R ownership sold and is eliminated completely once CD&R ownership interest in the strategic venture falls below 20%. In the event of a liquidation of the strategic venture, CD&R would be entitled to a liquidation preference of approximately $336 million, plus any quarterly payments that had been paid in kind.
Under the terms of an investor rights agreement, the Company has the right to designate two of the nine directors to the board of directors of the strategic venture and to jointly (with CD&R) designate one independent director. The remaining members of the board of directors of the strategic venture will consist of five directors designated by CD&R as well as the chief executive officer of the strategic venture.

Exhibit 99.1

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On November 26, 2013, Harsco Corporation (the "Company") consummated the previously announced transaction to sell the Company’s Harsco Infrastructure Segment into a strategic venture with Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (“CD&R”) as part of a transaction that combines the Harsco Infrastructure Segment with Brand Energy & Infrastructure Services, Inc. ("Brand"), which CD&R simultaneously acquired (the “Infrastructure Transaction”). The Company has contributed substantially all of the Company’s equity interests in, and the net assets of, the Harsco Infrastructure Segment to the strategic venture in exchange for $300 million in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments, and an approximate 29% equity interest in the strategic venture. The Company’s approximate 29% equity interest in the strategic venture will be accounted for under the equity method of accounting as prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The unit adjustment liability represents quarterly payments required to be made by the Company, pursuant to the terms of a limited partnership agreement (the "Partnership Agreement") that governs the operation of the strategic venture, either (at the Company’s election) (i) in cash, with total payments to equal approximately $22 million per year on a pre-tax basis (approximately $15 million per year after tax), or (ii) in kind through the transfer of approximately 2.5% of the Company’s equity interest in the strategic venture to CD&R on an annual basis. The Company’s obligation to make such quarterly payments under the Partnership Agreement will cease upon the earlier of (i) the strategic venture achieving $479 million in last twelve months’ earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for three quarters, which need not be consecutive, and (ii) eight years after the closing of the Infrastructure Transaction. In addition, upon the initial public offering of the strategic venture, the Company’s quarterly payment obligation will decrease by the portion of CD&R ownership sold and is eliminated completely once CD&R ownership interest in the strategic venture falls below 20%. In the event of a liquidation of the strategic venture, CD&R would be entitled to a liquidation preference of approximately $336 million, plus any quarterly payments that had been paid in kind.
