Examples
C(C(C(C(C(C(1)))))) = C(C(C(C(C(4))))) = C(C(C(C(9)))) = C(C(C(16))) = C(C(26)) = C(39) = 56. So 56 is in the sequence. So 77 is in the sequence.

C := remove(isprime,[$4..1000]): seq(C[C[C[C[C[C[n]]]]]],n=1..100);
Formula
Let C(n) be the n-th composite number, with C(1)=4. Then these are numbers C(C(C(C(C(C(n)))))).
