MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN:

Under the 2007 Management Incentive Plan, certain Haynes employees are eligible for cash awards based on Company performance, including, but not limited to, the Named Executive Officers.  If Haynes meets certain specific financial targets established by the Compensation Committee for fiscal 2007 (the “Financial Targets”), each Named Executive Officer is eligible for a cash payment under the Plan based on fiscal 2007 base salary. The target cash payments under the Plan are 60% of fiscal 2007 base salary for Mr. Petro, 45% of fiscal 2007 base salary for Mr. Martin, Mr. Cijan and Mr. Laird, and 25% of fiscal 2007 base salary for Mr. Spalding. The Named Executive Officer are also eligible for a cash payment under the Plan if the Company’s performance is equal to at least 85% of the Financial Targets. Those cash payments would be 35% of fiscal 2007 base salary for Mr. Petro, 25% of fiscal 2007 base salary for Mr. Martin, Mr. Cijan and Mr. Laird, and 12.5% of fiscal 2007 base salary for Mr. Spalding. If the Company’s performance exceeds the Financial Targets by at least 15%, the Named Executive Officer would be eligible for cash payments of 90% of fiscal 2007 base salary for Mr. Petro, 67.5% of fiscal 2007 base salary for Mr. Cijan and Mr. Laird, and 37.5% of fiscal 2007 base salary for Mr. Spalding.

Individual awards may be made at the discretion of the Board of Directors even if the Company’s performance is below the Financial Targets, provided that liquidity goals for fiscal 2007 established by the Compensation Committee are met. In addition, a discretionary bonus pool is available for grants by the Board of Directors, provided that in no case will total cash bonuses pursuant to the Plan exceed $2.2 million. The Board of Directors has full discretion to eliminate, delay or change any awards or payouts and may choose to pay awards at any level of performance.
