KOPPERS INC.

SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN II

PREAMBLE

Koppers Inc. (the “Company”) recognizes that the Internal Revenue Service limitations on compensation that may be taken into account for purposes of determining retirement benefits under a retirement plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code may prevent some key employees from realizing sufficient benefits from the Company’s qualified retirement plan. The purpose of the Koppers Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan II (formerly named the Koppers Industries, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan II) is to acknowledge and reward certain key employees of the Company for their efforts on behalf of the Company by providing additional post employment income to such key employees in order to facilitate their attainment of adequate levels of retirement income.

ARTICLE I

GENERAL

Section 1.1 Effective Date; Grandfathered Benefits. The original effective date of the Plan was December 1, 1997 and the Plan was subsequently amended and restated, effective as of January 1, 2009. The Plan as amended and restated as of such date applies only to a Participant’s Retirement Benefit that accrued on or after January 1, 2005, or Retirement Benefit that accrued prior to that date but was not fully vested on December 31, 2004. The Plan preceding such amendment and restatement applies to any Retirement Benefit that accrued and was vested prior to January 1, 2005 (“Grandfathered Benefits”); provided that any increase in the value of any subsidy with respect to Grandfathered Benefits payable upon retirement prior to the Retirement Plan’s Normal Retirement Date that accrues or increases as the result of service after December 31, 2004, shall not be treated as Grandfathered Benefits. The rights, if any, of any person whose status as an employee of an Employer has terminated shall be determined pursuant to the Plan as in effect on the date such employee terminated, unless a subsequently adopted provision of the Plan is made specifically applicable to such person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan is hereby restated to clarify the intended meaning of the Plan’s early retirement date definition and early retirement benefit provisions, with such clarification being effective as of the Plan’s original effective date.

Section 1.2 Intent. The Plan is intended to be an unfunded plan maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees, as such group is described under Section 201(2), 301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. Benefits provided under this Plan shall be funded solely from the general assets of the Employer and no participant or beneficiary hereunder shall have any interest or right to such assets.

4

opportunity to remedy such identified failure to perform, or (b) the willful engaging by the Participant in conduct which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Employer, monetarily or otherwise. For purposes of this definition, no act or failure to act, shall be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, not in good faith and without reasonable belief that such action or omission was in the best interest of the Employer.

“Years of Service” means the total number of years of “credited service” (as defined in the Retirement Plan) credited to a Participant under the Retirement Plan.

The time and form of payment of the Retirement Benefit shall be determined in accordance with Section 5.1.

(b) Amount. The Retirement Benefit for a Participant who retires on or after his or her Normal Retirement Date shall be an annual amount, payable in the form specified under Section 5.1 that is equal to the following:

The Retirement Benefit payable to a Participant who retires on or after his or her Early Retirement Date, but before his or her Normal Retirement Date, shall be an amount determined in accordance with the following, and subject to reduction for payment before the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date, as provided below:

Section 4.3 Termination of Employment. Except as provided in Section 4.2(b)(3) if a Participant incurs a Separation from Service with the Employer for reasons other than Termination for Cause after satisfying the vesting requirement under Section 4.6(a), but before the attainment of his or her Early Retirement Date or Normal Retirement Date, he shall receive a Retirement Benefit, determined under Section 4.1(b) as of his or her Normal Retirement Date, but such benefit shall be calculated by using his or her Final Average Pay and Years of Service as of the effective date of his or her Separation from Service. Notwithstanding satisfaction of the vesting requirements in Section 4.6(a), no Retirement Benefit shall be payable hereunder if a Participant incurs an event causing forfeiture of such benefits under Section 4.6(b). A Participant shall receive payment of his or her Retirement Benefit in a single lump sum within 60 days after his or her Separation from Service if the present value of the Participant’s Retirement Benefit does not exceed $5,000, determined in accordance with the assumptions and procedures established by the Administrator.

The Board may in its discretion provide that the amount of such Retirement Benefit shall be enhanced by taking into account additional Years of Service which are reasonably expected to have occurred absent the Participant’s Disability. Notwithstanding satisfaction of the vesting requirements in Section 4.6(a), no Retirement Benefit shall be payable hereunder if a Participant incurs an event causing forfeiture of such benefits under Section 4.6(b).

In each case, the optional form so elected shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the Normal Form. In addition, if the Participant is married on the date of benefit commencement, his choice of any form of payment other than the Normal Form or an optional form under (2) above with his spouse as beneficiary shall be valid only if he obtains his spouse’s written consent in a manner comparable to the analogous consent requirements applicable under the Retirement Plan.

Section 10.2 Unfunded Plan. Notwithstanding the remaining sections in this Article, the Plan, at all times, shall be entirely unfunded and shall constitute merely the unsecured promise of the Employer to make the payments as provided for herein. No Participant nor any beneficiary nor any other person shall have, by reason of this Plan, any rights, title or interest of any kind in or to any property of the Employer, all of which shall be subject to the claims of general creditors of the Employer, nor any beneficial interest in any trust which may be established by the Employer in connection with this Plan nor any guarantee that assets of the Employer will be sufficient to pay Retirement Benefits under the Plan. If the Employer transfers any property to a trust in connection with this Plan such trust shall not be held for the exclusive benefit of Participants and any assets held in such trust shall be subject to the claims of the Employer’s general creditors in the event of the Employer’s insolvency.

Section 10.3 Trust. A trust may be established by the execution of a Trust Agreement with one or more trustees, to be known as the Koppers Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Trust (the “Trust”). If a Trust is established, the following provisions shall be applicable:

(a) The Trust shall be maintained as a “grantor trust” under Section 677 of the Code, with the assets of the Trust being held, invested and disposed of by the trustee, in accordance with the terms of the Trust, for the exclusive purpose of providing Retirement Benefits for Participants. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or the Trust to the contrary, all assets held in the Trust shall at all times be subject to the claims of the Employer’s general creditors in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy.

(b) The Employer, in its sole discretion, and from time to time, may make contributions to the Trust. All Retirement Benefits under the Plan and expenses chargeable to the Plan, to the extent not paid directly by the Employer, shall be paid from the Trust.

(c) The powers, duties and responsibilities of the trustee shall be as set forth in the Trust Agreement and nothing contained in the Plan, either expressly or by implication, shall impose any additional powers, duties or responsibilities upon the trustee.

(d) The Employer shall have no beneficial interest in the Trust and no part of the Trust shall ever revert or be repaid to the Employer, directly or indirectly, except as otherwise provided in subsection (a) above or in the Trust Agreement.
