Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Since the filing of Amendment No. 5, Strategic Fund-N, Strategic Fund-G II and Strategic Fund-C have collectively purchased 863,000 Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $56,336,977.50 (including commissions).   The source of funding for such transactions was the respective general working capital of the purchasers.
In connection with his service on the Issuer’s Board of Directors, Mr. Garden received from the Issuer1,152 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and 5,898 nonqualified stock options (“Options”) on May 16, 2016, and Mr. Garden received from the Issuer 1,122 RSUs and 5,265 Options on January 3, 2017.  Each of the grants was made pursuant to the Pentair plc 2012 Stock and Incentive Plan.  The Options granted to Mr. Garden are exercisable at the closing price of the Shares on the date of the applicable grant, have a ten-year term and vest in three equal installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of the applicable grant.  The RSUs granted to Mr. Garden represent the right to receive an equal number of Shares upon vesting and vest on the first anniversary of the date of the applicable grant. 
On May 16, 2017, Mr. Garden received 921 Shares following the vesting of the RSUs granted to him on May 16, 2016 (net of 231 Shares surrendered to pay taxes applicable to the vesting of such RSUs).

Because other securities are held in Trian Entity margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase such Shares, and it may not be possible to determine the amounts of margin, if any, that could be used to purchase Shares in the future by the Trian Entities or any other funds, accounts or investment vehicles managed by Trian Management.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

 We understand that, consistent with its practices, PNR will be awarding to you, as a director of PNR, equity compensation in the form of (i) restricted stock units (the “RSUs”) and (ii) options to purchase ordinary shares (the “Options”, and collectively with the RSUs, the “Equity Awards”), and will be paying to you, in cash, an annual retainer for your service on its board of directors and certain committees of its board of directors (the “Fees”).  This is to confirm our prior understanding that you are authorized to accept such Equity Awards and Fees in your individual capacity on behalf of Trian upon the terms and conditions of this letter, including your agreement that, as long as you are an officer of Trian and for a period of six months and one day thereafter, you will follow the direction of Trian with respect to (x) the exercise and Transfer (as defined below) of any such Equity Awards and (y) the Transfer of any ordinary shares of PNR that you receive upon exercise or conversion of such Equity Awards (“Shares”) or any other securities you may receive as a director of PNR (“Other Securities”).  You further agree that (i) you will request that PNR deliver all Fees directly to an account designated by Trian, (ii) you will not dispose of, transfer, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or encumber (collectively, “Transfer”) any Equity Awards, Shares or Other Securities, without Trian’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in Trian’s sole discretion, (iii) you shall vote all such Shares and Other Securities at any meeting of shareholders of PNR in the manner that you are directed to do so by Trian in its sole discretion and (iv) you shall execute any written consent of the shareholders of PNR as Trian may, in its sole discretion, request that you execute. Upon any Transfer of all or a portion of the Equity Awards, Shares or Other Securities, Trian shall be entitled to receive the consideration received as a result of such Transfer (the “Equity Consideration“).
 Trian agrees to indemnify you against any tax imposed on income to you, net of any corresponding deduction to which you are entitled as a result of the transfer of the Fees and Equity Consideration to Trian.  Such indemnification shall include all taxes imposed on a tax indemnification payment and shall apply to income reported by either PNR or Trian.  For purposes of this letter agreement, taxes shall include any penalties, interest or additions to tax imposed upon you with respect to taxes.
 This letter agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such State.
 This letter shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and estates.
