The number of such Performance Share Units shall be fixed in accordance with Section 3.4(iii) based on the degree (as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion) to which the Performance Measures are achieved during the Performance Period. Such Performance Share Units are referred to as “Earned Shares”. The Compensation Committee shall have the authority to exercise its discretion to reduce or increase the level of deemed achievement of the Performance Measures; provided, that, in respect of any Performance Share Unit Award granted to any Participant who is, or is determined by the Compensation Committee to be likely to become, a “covered employee” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code (or any successor provision), only “negative discretion” (as such term is used in Treasury Regulation section 1.162-27(e)(2)(iii) or any successor provision) may be exercised if such adjustment would result in the loss of an otherwise available deduction.
(ii) Performance levels.
(a) “Threshold Performance” is achievement at the 35th percentile of the Performance Measures compared to the Peer Group and represents the level of performance below which the number of Performance Share Units actually covered by the Target Award shall be adjusted downward to zero.

(b) “Target Performance” is achievement at the 50th percentile of the Performance Measures compared to the Peer Group.
(c) “Maximum Performance” is achievement at the 75th percentile of the Performance Measures compared to the Peer Group and represents the maximum possible upward adjustment to the number of Performance Share Units actually covered by the Target Award.
(iii) Adjustments.
(a) Adjustments to the Target Award shall be computed by reference to the following table:
| Revenue Growth Performance |
Percentages in this column 40% of the Target Award* |
EBIT Growth Performance |
Percentages in this column 60% of the Target Award* | |||||
| Level Achieved During Performance Period (1) |

| Maximum Performance | 75th Percentile | 200% | 75th Percentile | 200% |
| * | Meaning 40% or 60%, respectively, of the number of Performance Share Units granted under the Target Award. |
(b) The total number of Earned Shares shall equal the sum of the numbers calculated under columns 3 and 5 of the table above.
(c) As to each Performance Measure:
(I) if GrafTech’s actual performance for the Performance Period is below the Threshold Performance, the number of Earned Shares shall be zero;
(II) if GrafTech’s actual performance for the Performance Period is between Threshold Performance and Target Performance, the number of Earned Shares shall be interpolated on a straight-line basis between Threshold Performance and Target Performance amounts;

3.6 Peer Group. “Peer Group” means a group of companies approved by the Compensation Committee that includes organizations of comparable size, revenue, assets, employees, market capitalization, complexity, business focus and geographical scope as the Company. As of the Grant Date, the Peer Group includes 31 companies in the steel, machinery, and electrical equipment industries having annual revenues ranging from $500 million to $2.5 billion. The Compensation Committee may in its sole discretion make changes to the companies that comprise the Peer Group as a result of significant changes (such as mergers, acquisitions, reorganizations or other factors) that materially impact the comparability of individual companies.

6
5.5 Withholding Taxes.
(i) The Company shall withhold or deduct from any or all payments or amounts due to or held for Participant, whether due from the Company or held in Participant’s Account, an amount (the “Withholding Amount”) equal to all taxes (including social security, unemployment, Medicare, and other governmental charges of any kind) required to be withheld or deducted with respect to any and all taxable income and other amounts attributable to Awards (the “Withholding Requirement”). Alternatively, Participant may elect to pay the Withholding Amount in cash upon such terms and conditions as are acceptable to the Company.
(ii) The Withholding Amount shall be determined by the Company. The timing of withholding or deduction shall be determined by the Company; provided, however, that, if such taxes are required to be paid to a tax or other governmental authority before such withholding or deduction is made, then the Company shall pay such taxes when due as agent for Participant and shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from such payments or amounts, or otherwise.
(iii) Unless Participant has made or makes a timely election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code or has paid the Withholding Amount in cash as provided above, Participant authorizes GrafTech and any broker designated by it to sell, on his or her behalf and for his or her account, such number of Shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to an Award as GrafTech or the broker may deem appropriate to satisfy each Withholding Requirement or to reimburse the Company in respect thereof, so that the net proceeds from such sale equal or exceed the applicable Withholding Amount, and to use the net proceeds to satisfy such Withholding Requirement (with any excess net proceeds to be paid to or deposited in an account of Participant).
(iv) If Participant has made or makes an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, he or she shall immediately file a copy thereof with the Company and upon demand by the Company make a cash payment to the Company equal to any Withholding Amount in respect thereof.
(v) In connection with any sale of Shares pursuant to this Section 5.5, Participant agrees that: (a) such sale may be aggregated with sales of Shares other securities granted to other participants under the Plan or other plans of the Company; (b) such aggregated sales may be made from time to time in one or more installments at any time and over time as GrafTech or the broker may deem necessary or appropriate with a view toward avoidance or minimization of disruption of the market for the Common Stock, administrative convenience, minimization of costs and expenses or other factors; and (c) the net proceeds from such aggregated sales and the sale prices of the Shares sold may be allocated among such Shares and other securities and Participant and such other participants as GrafTech or the broker may deem reasonable.
(vi) Participant understands that: (a) different Withholding Requirements may arise at different times based on time of delivery or vesting of Awards, tax elections or other factors; (b) different Withholding Requirements may be based on different values attributable to Awards at such times or otherwise based on applicable tax laws, changes in the financial condition of the Company, changes in market or economic conditions or other factors; (c) it may not be practicable or permissible to sell Shares to satisfy each Withholding Requirement at the time due because of rules and requirements of the broker or the Company, potential liability for short-swing profits, applicable laws, applicable rules of any securities exchange or market, or other factors; and (d) as a result, Shares may be sold at times and values that differ
7
from those applicable to such Withholding Requirement and that such differences can result in gains or losses relative to those values and capital gains and losses for tax purposes in addition to the taxes described in Section 5.5(i).
(vii) Participant hereby appoints the Corporate Director of Human Resources and each officer of GrafTech to be Participant’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and re-substitution, to take, cause to be taken and authorize the taking of any and all actions which any such attorney-in-fact may deem necessary, appropriate, convenient or expedient to sell Shares issuable pursuant to the Awards to generate net proceeds to satisfy any and all Withholding Requirements and to use net proceeds in satisfaction thereof. This power of attorney shall not be affected in any manner by reason of the execution, at any time, of other powers of attorney and shall not be affected by the subsequent death, disability or incompetence of Participant. This power of attorney is irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall remain in effect until all Withholding Requirements have been fully and unconditionally satisfied.
(viii) Participant acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor the broker, nor any of their respective affiliates, control persons, directors, officers, employees, representatives or agents, shall have any liability or obligation for any losses, damages, costs or expenses of any kind or under any theory arising out of or in connection with any action or omission under this Section 5.5 (including the determination of any Withholding Amount or the time when any Withholding Requirement is required to be satisfied or any sale of or delay in selling or failure to sell or the price, terms or conditions of sale of any Shares), including any liability for any claim that Participant could have made more or lost less in connection therewith or for any capital gain or loss due to the difference in time between the triggering of a Withholding Requirement and the resale of Shares in respect thereof or for violations of xxxxxxx xxxxxxx or other laws or for incurrence of liability for short-swing profits under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines by final and non-appealable judgment that any such losses, damages, costs or expenses resulted from actions taken or omitted in bad faith or due to gross negligence or willful misconduct. References in this Section 5.5 to “selling” and correlative terms include all activities related thereto, including placement and execution of sell orders, selection of brokers and dealers, delivery of Shares, receipt of proceeds and payment of fees and commissions.
(ix) The provisions hereof regarding sale of Shares to satisfy Withholding Requirements are also intended to constitute a trading plan within the meaning of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Act.

5.8 Amendments and Conflicting Agreements.

5.10 Disclosure and Use of Information. By signing and returning this Agreement, and as a condition of the grant of Awards, Participant hereby expressly consents to the collection, use, and transfer of personal data by the Company and by any agent of the Company (“Data Recipients”) for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant understands that Data Recipients are or may be located in his or her country of residence or elsewhere.

(i) Participant shall not, without the Company’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly, either for himself or herself or on behalf of any other corporation, partnership, company, person, group, or entity, engage in (a) the business of manufacturing, distributing, selling or providing carbon or graphite products, services, material or equipment of the kind or type which are the same as or similar to those manufactured, distributed, sold or provided by the Company now or at any time while Participant is an employee of the Company, or (b) any other business in which the Company directly or indirectly engages now or at any time while Participant is an employee of the Company. For purposes of this Exhibit A, Participant shall be deemed to “engage in business” if he or she, directly or indirectly, engages or invests in, owns, manages, operates, controls or participates in the ownership, management, operation or control of, is employed by, associated or connected in any manner with, or renders services or advice to, any corporation, partnership, company, person, group or entity engaged in the activities identified above; provided, however, that Participant may invest in the securities of any enterprise (but without otherwise participating in the activities of such enterprise) if (x) such securities are listed on any international, national or regional securities exchange or market or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and (y) Participant does not beneficially own (as defined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) in excess of 5% of the outstanding equity thereof (provided, that Participant shall be deemed not to beneficially own any securities owned by a registered or unregistered investment company with more than $50 million under management).
(ii) The provisions set forth in Section 1(i) above shall apply only to the reasonable and limited geographic area consisting of (a) any state, country, possession, or territory in which the Company directly or indirectly has offices, operations, or customers, or otherwise conducts business and (b) during Participant’s period of employment, any state, country, possession, or territory in which the Company plans to conduct business.
(iii) Participant shall not, directly or indirectly, call on, solicit or take away any of the customers or potential customers of the Company on whom Participant called or with whom Participant became acquainted or of which Participant learned during employment with the Company.
(iv) Participant shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment any employee of the Company or encourage, induce, attempt to induce, or assist another to induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company to terminate his or her employment with the Company.

10
comments of a defamatory or disparaging nature to any third party regarding the Company or any of the Company’s officers, directors, policies or products, other than to comply with any law or court, regulatory or governmental investigatory order or request.
(vi) If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the length of time, geographic scope or other restrictions, or any portion thereof, set forth in this Exhibit A is overly restrictive and unenforceable, the court may reduce or modify the same to the maximum limitations permitted by law, and as so reduced or modified, the restrictions herein shall remain in full force and effect. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Exhibit A is invalid or against public policy, the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect.
(vii) The business of the Company is international in scope and that the restrictions imposed by this Agreement are legitimate, reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s investment in its businesses and the goodwill thereof. The scope and duration of the restrictions contained herein are reasonable in light of the time that Participant has been engaged in the business of the Company, Participant’s reputation in the markets for the Company, and Participant’s relationship with the suppliers and customers of the Company. The restrictions contained herein are not burdensome to Participant in light of the grant of Awards hereunder. Moreover, Participant has other means available to him or her for the pursuit of his or her livelihood. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Exhibit A shall survive termination of the Agreement.
(viii) In the event of any violation by Participant of the provisions set forth in this Exhibit A, the Company will sustain serious, irreparable and substantial harm to its business, the extent of which will be difficult to determine and impossible to fully remedy by an action at law for money damages. Accordingly, in the event of such violation or threatened violation by Participant, the Company shall be entitled to an injunction before trial by any court of competent jurisdiction as a matter of course, in addition to all such other legal and equitable remedies as may be available to the Company. No bond needs to be furnished for such injunctive relief. If the Company is required to enforce the provisions set forth above by seeking an injunction, the relevant time periods set forth in this Exhibit A shall commence with the entry of the injunction. In addition to any and all of the rights and remedies which the Company may have against Participant, Participant will be liable to and pay the Company its court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in enforcing Participant’s covenants hereunder.
