<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to indemnify any
director or officer of the corporation against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees), judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any
action, suit or proceeding brought by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or
officer of the corporation, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if he or she had no reason to believe his or her
conduct was unlawful. In a derivative action, (i.e., one brought by or on behalf of the
corporation), indemnification may be provided only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred by
any director or officer in connection with the defense or settlement of such an action or suit if
such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not
opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be provided
if such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the
extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine that the defendant is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses despite such adjudication of
liability.

is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference
The following documents previously filed by the Registrant with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement:
1.
The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No.
333-160973), as amended.
2. The Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.
3. All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") since the end of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.
4. Registrant's Form 8-A Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange
Act, containing a description of the Registrant's shares of beneficial interest ("Shares"),
including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description.
In addition, all documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a),
13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which
indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then
remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement
and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Not Applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The Registrant's certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that each person who was or
is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (including, without
limitation, as a witness) in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or an
officer of Globe Specialty Metals, Inc. or is or was serving at the Registrant's request as a
director, officer, or trustee of another corporation, or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, whether the basis of
such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer or trustee or in
any other capacity while serving as a director, officer or

trustee, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Registrant to the fullest extent authorized
by the Delaware General Corporation Law against all expense, liability and loss (including
attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement)
reasonably incurred or suffered by such.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to indemnify any
director or officer of the corporation against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any
action, suit or proceeding brought by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or
officer of the corporation, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if he or she had no reason to believe his or her
conduct was unlawful. In a derivative action, (i.e., one brought by or on behalf of the
corporation), indemnification may be provided only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred by
any director or officer in connection with the defense or settlement of such an action or suit if
such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not
opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be provided
if such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the
extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine that the defendant is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses despite such adjudication of
liability.
Pursuant to Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, Article Eighth of the
Registrant's certificate of incorporation eliminates the liability of a director to the Registrant
for monetary damages for such a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liabilities
arising:
•
from any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant;
•
from acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
•
under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; and
•
from any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.
The Registrant carries insurance policies insuring its directors and officers against certain
liabilities that they may incur in their capacity as directors and officers. In addition, the
Registrant expects to enter into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and
executive officers.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed
Not applicable.
Item 8. Exhibits
See Exhibit Index on page 7.
Item 9. Undertakings
(a) The Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made of the
securities registered hereby, a post-effective amendment to this Registrant Statement;
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities
Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in this Registration
- 3 -
Table of Contents
Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of
securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed
that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in
volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
effective Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material
change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided
,
however
, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii)
above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration
Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The Registrant hereby further undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a)
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration
Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)
is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, will submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
