Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Indemnification Agreements

Cooper Industries plc and its subsidiary, Cooper Industries, Ltd., have each entered into deeds of indemnification dated August 31, 2010 substantially in the form filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 with each of the directors of Cooper Industries plc (the "Director Indemnification Agreements") that provide that Cooper Industries plc and Cooper Industries, Ltd. will indemnify the indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law against claims related to the indemnitee’s service as a director of Cooper Industries plc (or its predecessor Cooper Industries, Ltd.), except for claims relating to actions by the indemnitee that are determined by a court to constitute fraud or dishonesty in the performance of his or her duties. The Director Indemnification Agreement with Cooper Industries, Ltd. also provides that any and all indemnifiable expenses shall, if so requested by the indemnitee, be paid promptly as they are incurred, provided that the indemnitee must repay any such expense advance to the extent that the indemnitee is adjudged by the Supreme Court of Bermuda or the court in which such action was brought to be liable for fraud or dishonesty in the performance of his or her duties. The Director Indemnification Agreement with Cooper Industries plc provides directors certain rights to receive advancement of indemnifiable expenses at the discretion of Cooper Industries plc. In the event the indemnitee receives judgment in his or her favor or the claim against the indemnitee is otherwise disposed of in a manner that allows Cooper Industries plc to indemnify the indemnitee under its articles of association as then in effect, Cooper Industries plc will provide such indemnification to the indemnitee and will reimburse Cooper Industries, Ltd. for any indemnification or expense advance previously made by Cooper Industries, Ltd. in connection with such claim.
