(the &#147;Company&#148;) is filed pursuant to Rule 13p-1 (the &#147;Rule&#148;) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the reporting period from January&nbsp;1, 2014 to December&nbsp;31, 2014. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A copy of the Company&#146;s Conflict Minerals Report is provided as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form SD, and is publicly available at
www.pentair.com/investors/sec-filings. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Rule imposes reporting obligations on Securities and Exchange Commission registrants whose manufactured
products contain certain minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. If a registrant determines that any columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite or their derivatives, which are limited to
tantalum, tin and tungsten (the &#147;Subject Minerals&#148;), are necessary to the functionality or production of a product manufactured by the registrant or contracted by the registrant to be manufactured, the registrant must conduct in good faith
a Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (&#147;RCOI&#148;) regarding those Subject Minerals that is reasonably designed to determine whether any of the Subject Minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (the
&#147;Covered Countries&#148;) or are from recycled or scrap sources. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company performed a RCOI, in which it surveyed over 4,600 direct suppliers,
spanning over 63 enterprise resource planning systems, regarding whether its necessary Subject Minerals have been sourced from any of the Covered Countries. Most of the responses the Company received indicated that either (1)&nbsp;to the best of
such supplier&#146;s knowledge, the Subject Minerals in the components and materials that it supplied to the Company during 2014 did not originate from a Covered Country or (2)&nbsp;such supplier did not use Subject Minerals in the materials and
components that it supplied to the Company during 2014. Further information regarding the Company&#146;s RCOI is included in Section&nbsp;2.2 of the Company&#146;s Conflict Minerals Report, which is attached to this specialized disclosure report on
Form SD as Exhibit 1.01. The disclosure set forth in Section&nbsp;2.2 of the Conflict Minerals Report is incorporated by reference into this Item&nbsp;1.01. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">After reviewing the results of the RCOI, the Company could not conclusively determine that it had no reason to believe that, during 2014, Subject Minerals
necessary for the functionality or production of its products may have originated from a Covered Country and may not be from recycled or scrap sources. The Company conducted its RCOI in good faith, and it believes that such inquiry was reasonable to
allow it to make the determination. Accordingly, the Company proceeded to exercise due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the Subject Minerals in accordance with the framework contained in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and
Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, Second Edition, including the related supplements on gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten. The Conflict Minerals Report filed as
Exhibit 1.01 to this report includes a discussion of the due diligence procedures performed, the ultimate determination of origin and conflict status reached and other disclosures required by the Rule. </P>

CFSI, known as the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the &#147;Template&#148;). The Template was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters that provide material to a company&#146;s supply chain. It
includes questions regarding a direct supplier&#146;s conflict minerals policy, engagement with its direct suppliers, origin of Subject Minerals included in its products, supplier due diligence and a listing of the smelters the direct supplier and
its suppliers use. Written instructions and recorded training illustrating the use of the tool are available on the CFSI&#146;s website. Many companies are using the Template in their RCOI and due diligence processes related to Subject Minerals.

direct suppliers, spanning 63 enterprise resource planning systems. The Company received, reviewed and processed responses from over 82% of its suppliers, which represented approximately 92% of calendar year 2014 supplier expenditures. The Company
reviewed the responses against risk-based criteria developed to determine which responses required further engagement with the relevant suppliers. These criteria included inconsistencies within the data reported in the Template and other risk-based
criteria. The Company worked directly with these suppliers to obtain a revised response and/or additional clarity regarding their submission. </P>

Company&#146;s supply chain with respect to the Covered Products is complex, and there are many third parties in the supply chain between the ultimate manufacture of the Covered Products and the original sources of the Subject Minerals. In this
regard, the Company does not purchase Subject Minerals directly from mines, smelters or refiners. The Company must therefore rely on its suppliers to provide information regarding the origin of Subject Minerals that are included in the Covered
Products. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In conjunction with the Company&#146;s risk assessment process, the Company has developed a risk management plan. Through the Company&#146;s
due diligence process the Company attempts to determine the source and chain of custody of the necessary Subject Minerals the Company knows, or has reason to believe, originated in a Covered Country. The Company generally does not have a direct
relationship with smelters and/or refiners. Most of the work toward this aspect of the Guidance is carried out indirectly through the Company&#146;s suppliers or through the Company&#146;s involvement with industry working groups/coalitions. Due to
its position in the supply chain, the Company largely focuses on the accuracy and quality of the representations the Company&#146;s direct suppliers make regarding the source and chain of custody of their Subject Minerals. The Company evaluates its
direct suppliers&#146; responses to RCOI and due diligence inquiries based on the risk or likelihood that they are giving an incorrect response or that a non-response may indicate the supplier is purchasing from a known conflict source and does not
wish to disclose this fact. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In evaluating the responses from its suppliers, the Company screens all responses for overall risk factors associated with
the veracity of the information supplied. Suitable, measurable risk mitigation plans are developed as needed on a case-by-case basis. Actions may include (1)&nbsp;the Company&#146;s use of responses to the Template to identify potential high-risk
suppliers on a go-forward basis; and (2)&nbsp;focusing additional due diligence efforts on those high-risk suppliers. </P>

Covered Products or to conclusively determine whether the Subject Minerals in the Covered Products are from recycled or scrap sources. However, based on the information provided by the Company&#146;s suppliers, smelters and refiners, as well as from
