FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

HARSCO COMPLETES RAISE OF NEW TERM LOANS AND AMENDMENT TO ITS CREDIT FACILITY

CAMP HILL, PA (March 31, 2020) - Harsco Corporation (NYSE: Harsco Corporation (NYSE:HSC) (the “Company”) announced today it has raised a new term loan facility (the loans thereunder, the “New Term Loans”) of $280 million as a new tranche of loans under its existing senior secured credit facilities (the “Credit Facility”). The availability of the New Term Loans is subject to customary funding conditions, including the substantially concurrent consummation of the Company’s previously announced acquisition of the Stericycle Environmental Solutions business (the “ESOL Acquisition”). The Company will draw on the New Term Loans upon the closing of the ESOL Acquisition, and the New Term Loans, along with the Company’s revolving credit facility as had been previously anticipated, will be applied to finance the ESOL Acquisition and to pay related transaction fees and expenses. The Company is currently waiting on regulatory approval for the ESOL Acquisition.

Borrowings under the New Term Loans will bear interest at a rate per annum ranging from 150 to 225 basis points over adjusted LIBOR (as defined in the documentation for the Credit Facility). The New Term Loans will mature on June 28, 2024.

Harsco also has entered into an amendment (“Amendment”) to its existing Credit Facility. The Amendment amends certain covenants in the Credit Facility and is intended to provide the Company with increased operating flexibility.

Citigroup, N.A., PNC Bank National Association, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Bank of America, N.A., BMO Harris Bank, N.A., HSBC Bank USA, National Association, Royal Bank of Canada, Fifth Third Bank, National Association, The Huntington National Bank, Keybank National Association, ING Bank N. V., Dublin Branch, Truist Bank (formerly known as Branch and Banking Trust Company), Bank of the West, and Santander Bank, N.A. have acted as joint lead bookrunners and joint lead arrangers for the New Term Loans and the Amendment.

“We are pleased to further improve our financial flexibility through this amendment,” said Pete Minan, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “This transaction further strengthens Harsco’s financial position by providing term loan financing for the ESOL Acquisition and preserves significant revolving credit capacity. In addition, we are extremely pleased with the overwhelming support of our bank group, as commitments were significantly oversubscribed. Overall, this successful transaction reflects the positive underlying changes within Harsco over the past few years.”

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase any loans or securities.
