Since April 2018, Mr. Peltz has been a director of the Issuer, where he served on its Governance and Compensation Committees. From September 2015 through April 2018, Mr. Peltz attended meetings of the Board of Directors in an observer capacity. A copy of the letter sent to Mr. David A. Jones, Chairman of the Board of the Issuer, and Mr. John L. Stauch, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer, is attached hereto as Exhibit 8.
Mr. Peltz played an active role in helping guide the Issuer into becoming a pure play water company by spinning off nVent Electric plc and Trian Management believes that the Issuer is currently well positioned to succeed. Accordingly, Trian Management believes it is the appropriate time for Mr. Peltz to step off the Issuer's Board of Directors to devote more time to current and future board positions and his commitments to Trian Management.
The disclosure contained in Item 6 below is incorporated herein by reference.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
This agreement (this "Agreement") between Trian Partners Strategic Investment Fund-N, L.P. (the "Trian Fund") and Nomura Securities (Bermuda), Ltd. (the "Counterparty") is intended to create a written plan (the "Plan") with respect to certain acquisitions of ordinary shares (the "Shares") of Pentair plc (the "Company") by the Trian Fund from the Counterparty (each, a "Transaction") pursuant to certain OTC derivative arrangements (the "Derivative Arrangements") described in the Confirmations (as defined below), in each case, pursuant to Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
1. Commencing on August 27, 2018 and thereafter on each trading day for so long as this Plan is in effect, the Trian Fund and the Counterparty agree to consummate certain Transactions subject to the terms and conditions set forth on Exhibit A hereto.
This Agreement, including the Plan, shall terminate on the earliest to occur of: (a) the expiration or termination of each of the Derivative Arrangements, (b) the completion of the acquisition by the Trian Fund of all of the Shares underlying the Derivative Arrangements pursuant to the Plan or (c) in accordance with paragraph 3 of this Agreement, the date (such date, the "Optional Termination Date") on which the Trian Fund delivers to the Counterparty written notice of termination. Any Transactions entered into by the parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to, and governed in their entirety by, the letter agreement entered into between the Trian Fund and the Counterparty dated November 21, 2017 (Reference # 33976161) (the "November 21 Confirmation") and the letter agreement entered into between the Trian Fund and the Counterparty dated December 1, 2017 (Reference # 34136531) (the "December 1 Confirmation", and together with the November 21 Confirmation, the "Confirmations").

The Trian Fund further acknowledges that it intends for each of the Transactions to be exempt from the operation of the short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-6 promulgated thereunder.
3. It is the intent of the parties that this Agreement and the Plan comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) of the Exchange Act, and the parties agree that this Agreement shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c).
4. In connection with its acceptance of this Agreement, the Trian Fund represents that:
a. It is not entering into this Agreement "on the basis of" (as defined in Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act) material nonpublic information regarding the Shares or the Company;
b. It is entering into this Agreement in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade the prohibitions of Rule 10b5-1 or any other provision of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or regulations;
c. Entering into this Agreement, to its knowledge, does not violate any policies or requirements of the Company applicable to the Trian Fund;
d. It is aware of and will comply with respect to all Transactions effected hereunder with (i) all reporting requirements under Sections 13 or 16 of the Exchange Act, and (ii) if applicable, the short-swing profit recovery provisions under Section 16 of the Exchange Act;
e. It is aware that in order for this Agreement to constitute a plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1(c), it must not enter into or alter a corresponding or hedging transaction with respect to any Transaction entered into pursuant to this Agreement; and
f. Neither the Counterparty nor any of its affiliates has advised the Trian Fund with respect to any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or economic consequences arising from this Plan or any Transactions.
5. Except as otherwise provided hereof, any notice required or permitted by this Agreement will be deemed sufficient if in writing and if actually delivered or sent by certified mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested), recognized courier service or facsimile (with confirmation receipt) addressed:

8. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be regarded as an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same document.

The Counterparty agrees to give the Trian Fund prompt notice following it becoming aware of the commencement of any Proceeding for which the Counterparty intends to claim indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, if failure to give prompt notice materially prejudices the Trian Fund in its defense of such Proceeding, the Trian Fund shall not be obligated to indemnify the Counterparty under this Section 9. The Trian Fund shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Proceeding at its own expense, with counsel chosen by it The Counterparty shall have the right to retain one separate counsel in connection with any such Proceeding and participate in the defense thereof, provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Counterparty unless (a) the Trian Fund fails to assume the defense of such Proceeding after receiving notice thereof or (b) the named parties to any such Proceeding include both the Trian Fund and the Counterparty and either (i) the representation of the Trian Fund and the Counterparty by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct or (ii) there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Counterparty which are different from or additional to those available to the Trian Fund and the representation of both parties by the same counsel would create an actual conflict of interest. The Trian Fund shall not be liable for any settlement entered into without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. This indemnification shall survive termination of the Plan.
