Agreement.

 Section 2.02. Benefit Plans. 

(a) Establishment of Plans. nVent shall, or shall cause an applicable member of the nVent Group to, adopt Benefit Plans (and related
trusts, if applicable), to be effective no later than the Effective Time (or if provided in this Agreement, to be effective at the end of the Transition Period) with terms that are in the aggregate comparable (or such other standard as is specified
in this Agreement with respect to any particular Benefit Plan) to those of the corresponding Pentair Benefit Plans as in effect immediately prior to the date such plans are adopted; provided, however, that nVent may limit participation
in any such nVent Benefit Plan to nVent Group Employees and Former nVent Group Employees who were entitled to participate in the corresponding Pentair Benefit Plan immediately prior to the date of adoption of such plan to the extent consistent with
this Agreement. 
 (b) Service Credit. The nVent Benefit Plans shall, and nVent shall cause each member of the nVent Group to,
recognize each nVent Group Employee’s and each Former nVent Group Employee’s full service with Pentair or any of its Subsidiaries or predecessor entities at or before the Effective Time, to the same extent that such service was credited by
Pentair for similar purposes prior to the Effective Time as if such full service had been performed for a member of the nVent Group, for purposes of eligibility, vesting, and determination of level of benefits under any such nVent Benefit Plan. 

(c) No Duplication or Acceleration of Benefits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Separation and
Distribution Agreement, or any other Ancillary Agreement, no participant in any nVent Benefit Plan shall receive service credit or benefits to the extent that receipt of such service credit or benefits would result in duplication of benefits
provided to such participant by the corresponding Pentair Benefit Plan or any other plan, program, or arrangement sponsored or maintained by a member of the Pentair Group. Furthermore, unless expressly provided for in this Agreement, in the
Separation and Distribution Agreement, or in any other Ancillary Agreement, or required by applicable Law, no provision in this Agreement shall be construed to create any right to accelerate vesting or entitlements under any compensation or Benefit
Plan, program, or arrangement sponsored or maintained by a member of the Pentair Group or member of the nVent Group on the part of any Employee or Former Employee. 

(d) Beneficiaries. References to Pentair Group Employees, Former Pentair Group Employees, nVent Group Employees, Former nVent Group
Employees, and non-employee directors of either Pentair or nVent (including Transferred Directors), shall, where the context clearly contemplates, be deemed to refer to their current or former beneficiaries,
dependents, survivors, and alternate payees, as applicable. 
 (e) Transition Period. With respect to any Pentair Benefit Plan in
which the nVent Group will continue to participate during the Transition Period, references to nVent Group Employees shall be deemed to refer to any employee who is hired by the nVent Group during the Transition Period, and references to Former
nVent Group Employees shall be deemed to refer to an nVent Group Employee whose employment terminates during the Transition Period, and such terms also shall, where the context clearly contemplates, be deemed to refer to such individuals’
current or former beneficiaries, dependents, survivors, and alternate payees, as applicable.

Pentair shall assign, or cause an applicable member of the Pentair Group to assign, to nVent or another member of the nVent Group, as designated by nVent, all Individual Agreements, with such assignment to be effective as of or prior to the
Effective Time; provided, however, that to the extent that assignment of any such Individual Agreement is not permitted by the terms of such agreement or by applicable Law, then effective as of or prior to the Effective Time, each
member of the nVent Group shall be considered to be a successor to each member of the Pentair Group for purposes of, and a third-party beneficiary with respect to, such Individual Agreement, such that each member of the nVent Group shall enjoy all
of the rights and benefits under such agreement (including rights and benefits as a third-party beneficiary), with respect to the business operations of the nVent Group; and provided, further, that, on and after the Effective Time,
Pentair shall not be permitted to enforce any Individual Agreement (including any agreement containing noncompetition or nonsolicitation covenants) against an nVent Group Employee or Former nVent Group Employee for action taken in such
individual’s capacity as an nVent Group Employee or Former nVent Group Employee. 
 (b) Assumption by nVent. Except as otherwise
set forth on Schedule 2.03 hereto, effective as of or prior to the Effective Time, nVent shall assume and honor, or shall cause a member of the nVent Group to assume and honor, all Individual Agreements.

nVent shall cause the appropriate member of the nVent Group to (a) assume all collective bargaining, works council, or similar agreements (including any national, sector, or local collective bargaining agreement) that cover nVent Group
Employees or Former nVent Group Employees and the Liabilities arising under any such agreements, and (b) join any industrial, employer, or similar association or federation if membership is required for the relevant collective bargaining
agreement to continue to apply. 
 Section 2.05. Non-U.S. Regulatory Compliance. Pentair
shall have the authority to adjust the treatment described in this Agreement with respect to nVent Group Employees or Former nVent Group Employees who are located outside of the United States in order to ensure compliance with the applicable laws or
regulations of countries outside of the United States or to preserve the tax benefits provided under local tax law or regulation before the Distribution. 

ARTICLE III 
 ASSIGNMENT OF
EMPLOYEES 
 Section 3.01. Employees and Taxes. 

(a) Assignment and Transfer of Employees. Effective no later than immediately prior to the Effective Time and except as otherwise
agreed by the Parties or as required by applicable Law, (i) the applicable member of the Pentair Group or the nVent Group shall have taken such actions as are necessary to ensure that each nVent Group Employee is employed by a member of the
nVent Group as of the Effective Time, and (ii) the 

  
 13 








 
applicable member of the Pentair Group or the nVent Group shall have taken such actions as are necessary to ensure that each individual who is a Pentair Group Employee is employed by a member of
the Pentair Group as of the Effective Time. Each of the Parties agrees to execute, and to seek to have the applicable Employees execute, such documentation, if any, as may be necessary to reflect such assignment and/or transfer. 

(b) At-Will Status. Nothing in this Agreement shall create any obligation on the part of any
member of the Pentair Group or any member of the nVent Group to (i) continue the employment of any Employee or permit the return of any Employee from a leave of absence for any period after the date of this Agreement (except as required by
applicable Law) or (ii) change the employment status of any Employee from “at-will,” to the extent that such Employee is an “at-will” employee
under applicable Law. 
 (c) Severance. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Distribution and the assignment, transfer, or
continuation of the employment of Employees as contemplated by this Section 3.01 shall not be deemed an involuntary termination of employment entitling any nVent Group Employee or Pentair Group Employee to severance
payments or benefits, except as required by applicable Law or as otherwise agreed between the Parties. Notwithstanding Section 6.05 or anything to the contrary contained in any business transfer agreement entered into
between a member of the Pentair Group and a member of the nVent Group, nVent (or a member of the nVent Group designated by nVent) shall retain (or assume or reimburse to the extent necessary), and agrees to faithfully perform, discharge, and fulfill
any Liabilities in respect of any severance payments or benefits that become payable pursuant to applicable Law to any nVent Group Employee as a result of the transfer of such nVent Group Employee to a member of the nVent Group as contemplated by
Section 3.01(a). 
 (d) No Change of Control or Change in Control. The Parties acknowledge and agree that
neither the consummation of the Distribution nor any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the Separation and Distribution Agreement, or any other Ancillary Agreement shall be deemed a “change of control,” “change in
control,” or term of similar import for purposes of any Benefit Plan sponsored or maintained by any member of the Pentair Group or member of the nVent Group, except as required by applicable Law. 

(e) U.S. Payroll and Related Taxes. With respect to any nVent Group Employee or group of nVent Group Employees located in the United
States, the Parties shall, or shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to: 
 (A) treat nVent (or the applicable member of the nVent
Group) as a “successor employer” and Pentair (or the applicable member of the Pentair Group) as a “predecessor,” within the meaning of Sections 3121(a)(1) and 3306(b)(1) of the Code, for purposes of taxes imposed under the United
States Federal Insurance Contributions Act, as amended (“FICA”), or the United States Federal Unemployment Tax Act, as amended (“FUTA”); 

(B) cooperate with each other to avoid, to the extent possible, the restart of FICA and FUTA upon or following the Effective Time with
respect to each such nVent Group Employee for the tax year during which the Effective Time occurs; and 

  
 14 








 (C) use commercially reasonable efforts to implement the alternate procedure described in
Section 5 of Revenue Procedure 2004-53; provided, however, that, to the extent that nVent (or the applicable member of the nVent Group) cannot be treated as a “successor employer”
to Pentair (or the applicable member of the Pentair Group) within the meaning of Sections 3121(a)(1) and 3306(b)(1) of the Code with respect to any nVent Group Employee or group of nVent Group Employees, then (A) with respect to the portion of
the tax year commencing on January 1, 2018 and ending on the Distribution Date, Pentair shall (x) be responsible for all payroll obligations, tax withholding, and reporting obligations for such nVent Group Employees and (y) furnish a
Form W-2 or similar earnings statement to all such nVent Group Employees for such period, and (B) with respect to the remaining portion of such tax year, nVent shall (x) be responsible for all
payroll obligations, tax withholding, and reporting obligations regarding such nVent Group Employees and (y) furnish a Form W-2 or similar earnings statement to all such nVent Group Employees, subject to
the provisions of the Transition Services Agreement. 
 Section 3.02. No-Hire and
Nonsolicitation. 
 (a) No-Hire. Each Party agrees that, for a period of twenty-four
(24) months following the Distribution Date (the “Restricted Period”), such Party shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Affiliates not to, without the prior written consent of the Chief Human Resources Officer of the
other Party, directly or indirectly hire as an employee or an independent contractor any individual who is a Pentair Group Employee, in the case of nVent, or an nVent Group Employee, in the case of Pentair. 

(b) Nonsolicitation. Each Party agrees that, during the Restricted Period, such Party shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and
Affiliates not to, without prior written consent of the Chief Human Resources Officer of the other Party, either directly or indirectly, and whether on its own behalf or in service or on behalf of others, solicit, aid, induce, or encourage any
individual who is a Pentair Group Employee at [Grade 44] (or any equivalent level established following the Separation) or above, in the case of nVent, or an nVent Group Employee at [Grade 44] (or any equivalent level established following the
Separation) or above, in the case of Pentair, to leave his or her employment in order to work for such Party. 
 (c) Limited
Exceptions. Notwithstanding Section 3.02(a) and Section 3.02(b), this Section 3.02 shall not prohibit (i) generalized solicitations that are not directed to
specific Persons or Employees of the other Party, (ii) the solicitation and hiring of a Person whose employment was involuntarily terminated by the other Party, or (iii) the solicitation and hiring of a Person after receipt by the
soliciting Party (in advance of any solicitation or, in the case of a response to a general solicitation as permitted under clause (i) above, in advance of any subsequent solicitation in connection with the recruiting process) of the express
written consent of the Party that employs the Person who is to be solicited and/or hired. Except as provided in clause (ii) above with respect to involuntary terminations, without regard to the use of the term “Employee” or
“employs,” the restrictions under this Section 3.02 shall be applicable to (A) any Pentair Group Employee whose employment terminates after the Effective Time, and (B) any nVent Group Employee whose
employment terminates after the Effective Time, in each case, until the date that is six months after such Employee’s last date of employment with Pentair or nVent, as applicable. The restrictions under this
Section 3.02 shall not apply to any Former Pentair Group Employee or Former nVent Group Employee whose most recent employment with Pentair and its Subsidiaries was terminated prior to the Effective Time.

made a deferral election with respect to any such award under the Pentair Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (which election, if made by an Electric Group Employee, shall carryover to the Electric Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan), then to the extent such deferral election is effective, Pentair may direct that Electric issue Electric Ordinary Shares in respect of such an Electric Equity Award to the
Pentair Non-Qualified Plan Trust and Electric may direct that Pentair issue Pentair Ordinary Shares in respect of such Pentair Equity Award to the Electric Non-Qualified
Plan Trust.  
 (B) Upon the vesting or settlement of any stock-settled nVent Equity Awards (regardless of by whom held), nVent
shall be solely responsible for (1) ensuring the satisfaction of all applicable tax withholding requirements on behalf of each nVent Group Employee and Transferred Director and (2) ensuring the collection and remittance in cash of all
withholding taxes to the Pentair Group with respect to each Pentair Group Employee, Former Pentair Group Employee and Pentair Director (with the Pentair Group being responsible for remittance of the applicable taxes and payment and remittance of the
applicable employer taxes relating to such individuals to the applicable Governmental Authority), subject to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement. 

(C) Upon the vesting or settlement of any stock-settled Adjusted Pentair Equity Awards (regardless of by whom held), Pentair shall be solely
responsible for (1) ensuring the satisfaction of all applicable tax withholding requirements on behalf of each Pentair Group Employee, Former Pentair Group Employee and Pentair Director and (2) 


  
 20 








 
ensuring the collection and remittance in cash of all withholding taxes to the nVent Group with respect to each nVent Group Employee and Transferred Director (with nVent Group being responsible
for remittance of the applicable taxes and payment and remittance of the applicable employer taxes relating to such individuals to the applicable Governmental Authority).

Group Employees and Transferred Directors, subject to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement. 
 (E) nVent shall be responsible for
the payment of cash-settled dividend equivalents on any Adjusted Pentair Equity Awards or nVent Equity Awards held by an nVent Group Employee or Transferred Director. Prior to the date any such payment is due, Pentair shall pay nVent in cash amounts
required to pay (1) any dividend equivalents with respect to any stock-settled Adjusted Pentair Equity Awards held by nVent Group Employees and (2) any dividend equivalents accrued prior to the Effective Time with respect to any
stock-settled nVent Equity Awards held by nVent Group Employees or Transferred Directors.

(G) Following the Effective Time, (1) if any stock-settled Adjusted Pentair Equity Award held by an nVent Group Employee shall fail to
become vested, such Adjusted Pentair Equity Award shall be forfeited to Pentair, and (2) if any stock-settled nVent Equity Award held by a Pentair Group Employee or Former Employee shall fail to become vested, such nVent Equity Award shall be

 (h) Obligations under Prior Agreement. Pentair previously entered into the Amended and Restated Separation and
Distribution Agreement by and among Tyco International Ltd., Pentair and The ADT Corporation, dated as of September 27, 2012. Article VI of such agreement imposed certain obligations on Pentair with respect to certain Tyco equity awards that
were converted into Pentair equity awards. With respect to any such Pentair equity awards are converted into awards relating to nVent Shares, Pentair assigns to nVent, and nVent assumes and agrees to be responsible for, all of the obligations and
liability of Pentair under such agreement. 
 (i) Cooperation. Each of the Parties shall establish an appropriate administration
system to administer, in an orderly manner, (1) exercises of vested Adjusted Pentair Options, and nVent Options, (2) the vesting and forfeiture of unvested Adjusted Pentair Equity Awards and nVent Equity Awards, and (3) the
withholding and reporting requirements with respect to all awards. Each of the Parties shall work together to unify and consolidate all indicative data and payroll and employment information on regular timetables and make certain that each
applicable Person’s data and records in respect of such awards are 

  
 21 








 
correct and updated on a timely basis. The foregoing shall include employment status and information required for vesting and forfeiture of awards and tax withholding/remittance, compliance with
trading windows, and compliance with the requirements of the Exchange Act and other applicable Laws. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.01(h), each Party agrees that, without the written consent of
the other Party, such Party shall, during the three-year period commencing on the Distribution Date, continue to engage the stock plan administrator that Pentair has engaged immediately prior to the Effective Time as its third-party administrator
for Pentair Equity Awards, in the case of Pentair, and nVent Equity Awards, in the case of nVent. 
 (j) Registration and Other
Regulatory Requirements. nVent agrees to file Forms S-1, S-3, and S-8 registration statements with respect to, and to cause
to be registered pursuant to the Securities Act, the nVent Ordinary Shares authorized for issuance under the nVent Equity Plan, as required pursuant to the Securities Act, before the date of issuance of any nVent Ordinary Shares pursuant to the
nVent Equity Plan. Pentair agrees to facilitate the adoption and approval of the nVent Equity Plan consistent with the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.162- 27(f)(4)(iii). 

(k) Equity Awards in Certain Non-U.S. Jurisdictions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
of this Section 4.01, the Parties may mutually agree, in their sole discretion, not to adjust certain outstanding Pentair Equity Awards pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.01
where those actions would create or trigger adverse legal, accounting, or tax consequences for Pentair, nVent, and/or the affected non-U.S. award holder. In such circumstances, Pentair and/or nVent may take
any action necessary or advisable to prevent any such adverse legal, accounting, or tax consequences, including agreeing that the outstanding Pentair Equity Awards of the affected non-U.S. award holders shall
terminate in accordance with the terms of the Pentair Equity Plan and the underlying award agreements, in which case nVent or Pentair, as applicable, shall equitably compensate the affected non-U.S. award
holders in an alternate manner determined by nVent or Pentair, as applicable, in its sole discretion, or apply an alternate adjustment method. Where and to the extent required by applicable Law or tax considerations outside the United States, the
adjustments described in this Section 4.01 shall be deemed to have been effectuated immediately prior to the Distribution Date. 

Section 4.02. Incentive Plans.

under the terms of such plan immediately prior to the Effective Time. 

  
 28 








 (b) Establishment of nVent U.S. Welfare Plans. Before the end of the Transition Period,

after the occurrence of any such event, (a) provide written notice to the other Party of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure condition, and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to remove any such causes and resume

be deemed a waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default, nor shall it prejudice the rights of the other Party. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof prejudice any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege.

Separation and Distribution Agreement shall apply to any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief in respect of its rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and
remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. The Parties agree that the remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach, including monetary damages, are inadequate compensation for any loss and that any
defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate is waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by each of the Parties.
