Dear Randy:

This is to confirm Calgon Carbon Corporation’s offer of employment for the position of President and Chief Executive Officer at the Company’s corporate headquarters near Pittsburgh.

The base annual salary for this exempt position will be $500,000 per year paid in twelve (12) equal monthly amounts.  You will be eligible for participation in the Company’s Senior Leadership Team incentive compensation program which provides for short-term (“STI”) and long-term incentive (“LTI”) opportunities.  Under the 2012 STI program, you will be eligible for an annual cash incentive target equal to 70% of your annual base salary prorated for the portion of the year you are employed effective on August 1, 2012.  STI is payable in 2013 and the actual amount you will receive, if any, is determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee based upon the Company’s performance and your personal performance.  Under our 2012 STI program STI can be paid in range of 0% of the incentive target to 175% of the incentive target based upon you performance against deliverables as determined by our Compensation Committee.  Subject to Board of Directors’ approval for 2013, the LTI component consists of 25% time vested restricted stock and 25% stock options, and 50% performance stock units. LTI for our CEO is currently targeted at 150% of base salary.  The incentive compensation program is subject to changes as directed by the Company’s Compensation Committee.
